That anonymous who always makes a comment always trying to put me in a bad light, please i hope by next year, you will stop commenting here? Or are you addicted to this blog but you are a hater?
Waju can you collate names for the data giveaway? it will even be easier.. if this is OK by you then i will do a post on this tomorrow for BVs to contact you for data and tell you how many to select.....
What else? In this life, don't ever think that someone can not do without you cos when you walk away, the show gets better... Stay humble #noshades
For the face of in house news competition, we will rest it for now until further notice and move on to something more intellectual. let me prick your brains....
We will be addressing various issues and would title it as MY VIEW..... The ones with best write up and best response will win a prize of 20k...I will only take 3 entries per column per month.. it will start running in 2023... writeup must be devoid of swear/cuss words and not defaming or maligning the subject of discussion.....

**********************
WISDOM NUGGETS
from the 24th chapter of the book of Proverbs.
- You should have a goal to build a happier life, not just a fulfilled life. To do this, you will need wisdom because it won't happen on its own. To be WISER, you need to be a student. It takes much digging for you to know what makes you happy.
- Intelligence and wisdom outranks muscle any day. Learn to manage your egos because egos bigger than countries usually leads to war. To win in marriage, business, and life in general, you need a lot of good counsel.
- Peace time is not the only indicator of a wise person. Infact, a wise person is detected more when they are in conflict. When you are in conflict, that is when your wisdom shows. So what are you made of? How do you respond to conflict? Remember that wisdom says when you fall to pieces in a conflict, perhaps, there was wasn't much to you in the first place.
- Do not allow wisdom become a chore to you. Catch yourself when you want to take the short cut to knowledge. Allow wisdom to become like a delicacy that melts in your mouth. Remember that attention is dependent on interest. So what are you interested in?
- Do not think that as a God-loyal person, you are exempted from being beaten-down. NO. What you are exempted from is staying down. In 2023, life will come with its ups and downs, learn to always pick yourself up and move on. This the mark of a wise person.
*****************
The Friendship between singers - OMAWUMI and WAJE, is Admirable, Enviable and absolutely Commendable! It is not perfect, but it has spanned several years, weathered the storm, yet still standing STRONG! ♥️
ReplyDeleteIt's extremely RARE to find such LOYAL friends these days. You go dey love your friend jeje, but low-key, your friend dey compete with you.
One LOYAL Friend is more than enough!
Una Gud Afternoon...#ALiSpeaks
Honestly I love their friendship ๐
DeleteReally wish to have a friend like that someday.....
I agree!
DeleteI absolutely accede
DeleteSo true
DeleteTrue๐ especially being "Women". Very rare n quite commendable.
DeleteExactly
DeleteDivine Health Confessions!!
ReplyDeleteIn Christ, I have authority over the elements of this world and I exercise dominion over my body. I declare that my body is the Lord’s temple and sickness is not allowed in or around it. Any sick person who comes to me recovers because I carry God’s healing power.
Amen! ๐๐พ
DeleteAmen.
DeleteJeweluchi Chocolate noir, you are greatly missed and I wish to see your comment soon.
May your healing remain permanent in Jesus name. Amen.
May the peace, joy and goodness of the Lord continue to be upon us in this season and beyond.
ReplyDeleteGood afternoon.
Amen
DeleteAmen๐๐
DeleteI thank God we didn't lose Choc Noir.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the intellectual column.
Honestly,thank God she's ok.i pray God perfects his healing in choc noir.
DeleteWhat’s wrong with her
DeletePublic Holidays
ReplyDeletePublic holidays are work-free days set apart to mark an event of significance in the history of a nation, a people, or the world.
In Nigeria, we mark public holidays by staying off work. One cannot deny the fact that citizens are stressed by the economic and political activities in the country. It is therefore believed that a public holiday should provide an opportunity for relaxation, and staying away from the hustle-bustle of everyday life.
But The Guardian stated that things are different in our environment:
"The public holiday carries a burden with it. It simply shuts down business and prevents certain important actions from taking place.
Any day government shuts its door to business a lot of things suffer. Discussions are stalled. Payments are stalled. Money does not flow. It is sad but that is the reality of our situation."
It has been reported that Nigeria loses billions of naira as a result of multiple public holidays declared in a year.
Here is how Hope Eghagha summed it up in her article:
"Our national economy requires a state of emergency declaration. Millions of people who otherwise have no business with Government are compelled to depend on the whims and caprices of the ruling government. I should make it clear that all over the world Government spending is crucial to the survival of the economy. The point is that the government should rise above the level of frivolity in declaring public holidays and how they should be marked. In sum, no work day should be declared a public holiday if the original date falls on a weekend. We did it before and we can do it again as part of the desired change in our country!"
In conclusion, extension of public holidays impacts our economy negatively.

A woman in modest dress, accompanied by her husband, dressed in a comfortable but cheap suit, got off a train at Boston Station and went to the Harvard University principal's office. They did not make an appointment.
ReplyDelete"We'd like to meet with the school principal," the man said in a silenced voice.
"He'll be busy all day," the front desk officer answered. "We'll wait," the woman said.
The staff ignored the visitors for several hours hoping that at some point they would be disappointed and leave on their own. However, when they made sure that they wouldn't go anywhere themselves, she decided to harass the director and inform about their visit.
"Maybe if you accept them for a minute, then they'd rather leave? " she asked the director.
The director sighed angrily and agreed. As important as he is, he certainly does not have time to accept people dressed so modestly.
When the visitors entered, the director immediately measured them with his stern and arrogant gaze. The woman turned to him: "We had a son, he studied at your university for a year. He loved this place and was very happy here but sadly passed away a year ago unexpectedly. My husband and I would therefore like to leave some memory of him on the territory of this university."
The director was not happy about it at all, but on the contrary he was very irritated." Lady!" he replied impudently," we can't build monuments to everyone who studied at Harvard and died. If we did, it would soon be a cemetery."
" No, I didn't mean so", the woman quickly objected, "we don't want to build a monument, nor a statue, we want to build a new building for Harvard."
The director looked at the faded checkered dress and a cheap suit and exclaimed, "God, do you people have any idea how much such a building costs? All Harvard buildings are worth over seven million dollars together!"
The wife hasn’t said anything in a minute. The director had an ominous smile of joy. So they will see her out of here after all! But rather the woman turned to her husband and said quietly:
"Is it so cheap to build a new university? So why don't we build our own university?"
The man gave a nod in agreement. Harvard director faded and looked confused.
The Stanford spouses got up and left the office without further ado. In Palo Alto, California, they established a university that bears his name - Stanford University - in memory of their beloved son.
(Stanford University was founded by a train tycoon, US Senator Leland Stanford and his wife Jane Stanford. The university is named after their only late son, Leland.) ~ Wikipedia.
Leland Stanford, Sr. told his wife, "From now on, all the children in California will be like our own children".

Interesting story. Never look down on people on account of their appearance!
DeleteTruly pays to be humble
DeleteVery interesting and educative story
DeleteHumility is the mother of all virtues. Nice one.
DeleteParenthood column, I will look forward to Martin's own too and that of Eka Joy๐
ReplyDeleteMotherhood poster is on that already na
DeleteInside the mind of a woman going through motherhood/parenthood
Brother Milkshakes, go back up and read the post where we have "inside the mind of a woman/man going through motherhood/Parenthood"
DeleteYou will see what Stella said about the column
I hope the motherhood poster did not stop posting as a result of the bashing that people gave her because of her homeschooling and her somewhat strict method of parenting and restrictions.
ReplyDeleteI hope it is not so too
DeleteI don't think so, she doesn't sound like someone easily swayed by public opinion, plus I feel she is even more permissive than strict o.
Delete14.22 u sef join dem dey bash her, people like you no reach to sway the motherhood poster. I loove her write ups, someone would come out and talk about how she manages her home, una go dey complain as if your own methods are the best.
DeleteIf you are not exposed enough to understand what homeschooling is make una seal una lips.
If you did your research well you would have known that homeschooled kids have many activities lined up in their curriculum. But no, una no go read! Motherhood poster, take your break if you have to, just know that those "bashers" are not half intelligent as you to produce those write ups.
I thank God for you Jeweluchi Choc Noir. You have conquered the sickness. It will continue to get better for you in Jesus name amen.
ReplyDeleteGood afternoon people ๐ I'm just so excited ๐
ReplyDeleteChocolate noir, your healing is permanent in Jesus name, I'm just so glad you are doing great.
