IN MY OWN TIME

So many a times, one wonders of what stuff Nigerians are made of. I've stopped seeing the bad side of things i this country, but if you eschew from certain things, people who'll make you bring you back to them'll surely surface. Why is it that so many thing go wrong in this country? The image up there depicts what to you? i wouldn't want to say the person in the image isn't a police officer cos for sure he is putting on the uniform but in all sincerity, does this person fits to be an officer. We see on TVs even if we've not been to other places how their men of the force look like. I don't want to describe what i see honestly. Will anyone convince me that this person can help in an emergency situation, i am of the believe that a thorough reformation be done cos apparently most of them look like this.

At the weekend, Liverpool ended the much talked about Chelsea's unbeaten at Stamford Bridge with Alonso's goal bringing down the bridge. They have always been winning at home which had made them have 86 match unbeaten to their credit. Anyway it shows however that Liverpool is superior. To all true 'Blues', accept my symphathy and prepare well for your next match. As for Liverpool, 'U'll never walk alone'.

Some students of a particular secondary school in Lagos has filed a suit against the governor for allegedly pulling down their school despite his campaign on education, a must for every child. The children had hitherto demanded a ransom of around #500 million as damages. The case which was to be heard in Lagos High Court witnessed the absence of the gov. (BRF) despite a long-served notice to the suit and a court room filled to the brim with students, teachers, parents and some others. The students comprised of just passed-out SS3 students and others who were younger all below the age of 18 were duly represented by their parents. The demolishion took place during this year's May/June Exams (WAEC) leaving the students to having their exams and lecture taken under tree shades. Do you think they'll win the government?

A couple of weeks ago on the popular Tv show "Who wants to be a millionaire", a man made it to the hot seat after being first in arranging the right order of washing the mouth. When the host Frank Edoho called his name as the fastest, he was quick in telling him he knew he was first because the man will be a "chronic mouth-washer" because of his laughter. At the hot seat, after answering about 3 questions, he used a lifeline which made him proceed to he next question amidst laughter, he soon got a stage he never knew what the answer to the question was and he opted to call a friend who unfortunately couldn't provide him with the answer to the question within the time limit, he eventually chose the wrong option and he came back to =N=20,000. Despite the loss he couldn't help laughing out big time. I recommend the guy for a laughing competition and i bet he'll win definitely.

Nigeria our beloved country. How yesterday it was when you gained your independence from the colonial masters but it's been 48 years now. So far the journey had been so adventurous and full of events which are to be remembered for ever while some are not wished to be thought about. But of what good is our celebration when we have strong legs but still can not stand, we have bogus eyes but fail to see, big heart yet don't feel or care, our strong teeth but can't bite nor chew. Despite these and lots more, we still are Big Brother. Of what essence is our jubilation when our leadership i s characterized by corruption, our economy stricken with abject poverty, our people suffering amidst surplus, people of age bracket fully unemployed better still under-employed. Our cries are not seen, our fear are not felt, our lives are not secured less our properties, our faith faceless rather their wealth multiplies, their riches no bound, their happiness limitless at out detriment.
