IN MY OWN TIME

The President's state of health The President's state of health has been a major news for a while now with everyone having one or two things to say. A newspaper even said while giving a news on it that some other papers have become Medical Report giving up to date information about his condition. Yar'Adua who went out of the country for medical attention says he's okay but to many, that seems rather unpalatable to their hearing, rather they prefer to pollute the environment with non-issues. Some even went as far as debating who'll succeed him in office, that is to tell you the extent to which they wish him. I'm not surprised at that since some even said it before the election that brought him into power that the former president OBJ intentionally wants him as president because he knows his health is bad and will soon pack off (dead) and that definitely is because he doesn't want to directly handover to an easterner (Jonathan). Anyway, while some are wishing...

It was exactly a week now when it rained cats and dogs like it was never going to rain another.The rain started last Monday and it continued on Tuesday. I was to run a errand for one of my boss whose office is at Victoria Island. I left my office in the rain to clarify some things at UBA where i had gone the day before after which i headed for GTB then i left for his place at Standard Chartered opposite the Galleria. When i was done with him, the rain had increased at what i can call geometric progression to when i left from my place. I couldn't stay, waiting for the rain for subside cos i never told anyone in office i was going out, so i had to get into it, i made for a bike and when eventually one will stop, it happened to be an Hausa guy. I told him Sterling Towers (Marina) and he said =N= 180, quickly i said =N= 150 and he was like how does he get there, i offered to tell him to cut road and enter into Broad Street through TBS but he said he'll make for another route, i qu...

Yesterday after work, we set to go home and it was free all the way until we got to Herbert Macaulay when we got stucked in this traffic, some of us who are muslims had to break our fast in the bus, not so long we got to a standstill, i hate being in traffic because i always am uncomfortable with heat and a kind of sleepy feeling and i felt like getting out of the bus with a PH Being spirit, guess you know why?. After i had recovered from a little doze, when the heat was intense and we resumed chatting, we caught a glimpse of some set of men who had gotten out of their car and turned the road to a dance hall, at first it was two of them (the driver and the one sitting beside him), it drew the attention of everybody in the traffic whose gaze could reach where they were, we started laughing at them not even knowing what song they were playing, the next thing one of them just went down ( komole ) and soon the other one at the back seat got out as well and joined in the " Traffic Dan...

The month of August has come and gone.It had some things i would not like to forget like "Mad at me", something i ought to have blogged about. It was when my uncle who stays on my street gave birth, mid August to be precise, i came back from work that night tired when i was told the wife was delivered of their 3rd child (3rd girl) and when i asked if she's back at home, my sis told me she had no idea, after prayer, i went to rest and that was how i slept off. I was woken by noise from the living room and when i got in, i just greeted mum, dad and the father of the new baby still amidst sleep, later my uncle asked me if i had been told about her wife, and when i said yes, that was when trouble started with mum and dad saying after i had been told, shouldn't i have gone to see her, even after my uncle had left they still kept on nagging at me, not wanting to hear my own side and guess what all through the scolding i didn't say a word till i slept off cos all they we...
