Facts of life.

Life is a tunnel,
One must follow its route to get to its channel.
Life is a ladder,
One has to climb to get to the top.
Life is a race, only those with grace will get to the finish line.
A race with side distractions and attractions,
Only the wise will be able to face.

Life is a battle field for warriors who are zealous.
Life is a rough road, only the tough can trode.
But there are times when life kicks one in the face.

Times when the road becomes too rough and the troughs are swayed.
Times when the ladder becomes unstable and the climbers begin to shake.
Times when the battle becomes tense, and the warriors are slayed.
Times when the toughest of the tough, and the strongest of the strong get lost in life.

Times when the colour of life is ugly,
Producing different shades of ugly.
Times when one's heart begins to shrink,
As you watch everything crumble before your eyes.
Times when all hope is lost,
As  life demands a price one must pay at all cost.

Life is not a bed of roses,
Life is a bed of sufferings,
Only the prepared can lie on it.

Life is not the bright sky,
It's the stormy clouds.
Life is not the day light,
It's the dark night.
Life is not a day dream,
It's a nightmare.
Life is not a  fantasy,
It's a reality.
Life is a reality thst hits hard those who came unprepared.
Life is a web that traps the unaware.

Life is ugly.
Only those who accepts its reality,
Endures its brutality.

(#ENDSARS): Those in authority have no respect for Nigeria.

 The ordeal that took place at Leki toll gate (Lagos state) has proven to us that both the government and those in the army, have no respect for this nation. It is sad to watch trained men who should know the value of the nation's flag shoot at peaceful protestants who held the flag.

The national flag is a symbol of peace and unity. Young men and women holding up the flag in peaceful protest for a better Nigeria were killed unjustly.  Those who're in 'power' should've known better than to disrespect the nation by giving orders to the military men to open fire at peaceful protestants. 

If they can't show respect to the country and its cotizems, then they're not fit to be in authority.  May the deaths of our fellow citizens be avenged. So help us God. Amen.

What wrong have they done? What laws have they broken? Innocent civilians wanting a better nation killed like criminals.

The blood of innocent Nigerians wasted just because they knew their rights and acted on it.

Tuesday, 20th of October 2020 will forever remain in our hearts. The cries of fellow brothers, sisters, loved ones, friends will remain embedded in our memories.

Nigerians, great people.

Reduce the crowd: A tip for success

 Good evening readers. This is our next  tip for success in the success series. After discovering yourself, knowing what you are good at and trying to be the best at it the next step to take is this.

Be free with all but friends to few. This is the next key to success. In other words, be happy with everyone, speak freely with people, socialize but share ideas with few. Why? You may ask. The answer is simple. The lesser the crowed, the lesser the distractions. If you keep too many people around you you are likely never going to achieve anything. Keeps friends who share similar ideas, views, and beliefs with you. 

Every successful person in life never crowds his/herself with people. They move in minority, with the  minority. Having friends is not a crime but keeping unnecessary group of people who claim to be friends but have not impacted your life positively is. Keep friends who will not discourage you with their negative responses to situations. 

Spoken words are shaper than the sword. Some people are failures today because of what someone said to them. You have intentions of doing something then a friend comes and says "don't even bother it won't work for you. I tried it too and it  didn't work out". That statement alone is enough to discourage someone who wasn't so sure in the first place. 

It is what you feed the mind that it thrives on. So if you are surrounded by pessimistic people with time you yourself become like them.

Remember even Jesus had many friends or followers in his time but he surounded himself with just 12 of them.

Break down your circle, reduce the crowed so you can breathe freely. This is the next key to success.

Love,

"I fought so hard for true love before you came" - Bobrisky finally shows off his lover, Henry

A meaning to life

life sometimes can be very unpredictable and twisted. At times we put in our all in life and get nothing in return. So we decide to take matters into our own hands and end it. End our sufferings, our problems and so on.

The truth is whatever it is we are going through there is someone out there who has been through it and even worse. So what? You have read for an exam, wrote to the best of your knowledge and when the results were finally out you failed beyond compare, or you have prepared so hard for a job interview you have all the qualifications and when the time comes you weren't given the job, or is it the promotion you have worked hard for, that is so obvious you are the person for that position only for it to be given to someone else.

No matter what the experience might be, we do not have any right to end our lives. Instead of focusing on the dark side why not look at the bright side. Yes it is okay to be disappointed, sad, angry. But don't forget that others have suffered worse and are still alive.

While you are crying over that failed exam others are crying over a dead friend, couesemate. While you are feeling dejected over that job you did not get, others are mourning their colleaque. While yo are brooding over that promotion, others are burying their boss.

So you see you are not the only one who has had a bad day. So when people come to comfort you let them in. I personally do not encourage people to say "you don't know what i'm going through" or" put yourself in my shoes

The truth is whether you like it or not every one has had their fair share of bad times. True it did not come the same time as yours but we all get to experience that ugly aspect of life.

It is better to fail today, and be alive to succeed tomorrow. Than fail today, and die a failure. Also don't forget no matter how dark the sky is at night, the sun will surely rise in the morning.

Peter and Judas both betrayed Christ in their own ways, but the difference is that Peter unlike Judas choose to change. And he did that by living.

Always remember that when the going is rough.

You can only change what you are, and where you are now when you choose to live.

Please share to friends

Love,

Silver Joan❤.

Suspended EFCC boss Ibrahim Magu writes presidential investigation panel; speaks on the allegations leveled against him and makes demands

The suspended boss of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission EFCC, Ibrahim Magu, has complained about the “unfortunate” handling of his investigation for alleged corruption, saying he has consequently been “paraded like a common criminal”.

 

Magu on Monday, July 6, appeared before the presidential panel investigating allegations of corruption leveled against him by the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami.

 

Premiumtimes reports that Magu in a letter written by his lawyer, Wahab Shittu, and sent to the Presidential Investigative Committee on Friday, July 10, said he had not seen the petitions containing the allegations against him nor has the committee availed him with their terms of reference. The letter which was reportedly sent to the Committee on Friday, July 11, reads in part

“Mr Chairman, since the 6th of July when our client honoured your invitation, he has been consistently applying to the Committee to be given the petitions containing the allegations of CONSPIRACY, CORRUPT ENRICHMENT, ABUSE OF POWER/OFFICE, which request has not been honoured or obliged till date. Our client has also informed us that he remains unaware of the terms of reference of this distinguished Committee.”

 

The letter also related Magu’s discomfort with his continued detention at the Force Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department FCID “without being informed of the allegations against him and the deserved opportunity to timeously study and respond to same.”

 

Magu in his letter complained that “witnesses are called and examined by the Committee behind his back and without allowing him and counsel of his choice to participate in the proceedings involving these witnesses.”

 

The suspended chairman of the antigraft agency said he had been a target of campaigns of calumny by the media taking advantage of his detention to spread damaging, false and prejudicial allegations. 

 

Among such “unfounded allegations which never featured in the proceedings of the Committee thus far,” the letter said, were that Mr. Magu gave Vice President Yemi Osinbajo four billion naira (an allegation Mr Osinbajo has denied); that he ran secret accounts; procured cronies to front for him; and that he acquired properties in Dubai.

“These campaigns of calumny have greatly affected the morale of our client and damaged his hard earned reputation and that of the Commission (EFCC)

It continued, “that our client as a result of this campaign of calumny has been paraded like a common criminal and subjected to all manners of insults and embarrassment just for serving his nation diligently and efficiently as the arrow-head of the anti-corruption campaign of this administration.

This unfortunate development is happening even before the determination of the petitions before this Honourable Committee with prejudicial consequences.” the letter read in part

 

Magu in his letter made seven requests from the committee, including its terms of reference; access to the petitions against him to “enable him study and prepare a robust defence”; intervention of the committee to facilitate his release from the FCID detention; and adequate time to respond to the allegations against him with necessary materials and evidence.

 

He also sought an opportunity to confront the petitioners with his own defense; and requested that witnesses be examined in his presence and his counsel. He then asked the committee to guarantee “his right to fair hearing including his right to liberty in the course of the proceedings of this distinguished Committee.”

 

The investigative committee is yet to comment on Magu's letter.

JUSTICE FOR RAPE:NEVER BLAME A VICTIM

The news in rape is becoming  unbearable. Women are raped, sexually assaulted and harassed, and some killed.

The rate at which sexual violation is increasing is really disturbing. One can say 85-90& of women have suffered one sexual assualt or the other. And the painful part is the victim's suffer more than the perpetrators. The reason is that the victims carry such hurtful memories in their minds, because one can try to forget but can never actually forget. While the guilty in most cases go free or at most are sentenced to 14 years jail term.

Since the fact has been stated, it is adviced that as a woman, once a fellow woman comes to share her story with you, your first words should be chosen carefully. On no circumstance should you blame the victim. No matter what lead/led to the rape or sexual assualt of any kind never blame the victim.

Am writing this because something happened today. A friend was sharing her experience with me about how she was sexually harassed. Instead of me to start by showing her comfort, I went straight to telling her what she did that she ought not to have done. But at a point I realised my mistake and corrected it. Because the fact remains that no matter what a woman do/does to avoid being  sexually assaulted she is still likely to be assaulted. So no matter what, show love to a victim.  At that point when she's sharing hetr pains with you she only needs your support and comfort.

Let her know it was not her fault and that she has nothing to be ashamed of.

WOMEN we are all we have.
