What Happens When A Sleeping Economic Giant Wakes Up?

Once upon a time, there was a country that couldn’t feed its population, over a billion people. This country’s inhabitants were ingenious, waiting for the freedom to exhibit their creativity.

But they couldn’t express themselves because of the type of government as well as the economic system they embraced. That country was China; the government and economic system were communist.

Fooling The Fools: Nigeria’s 30,000 Naira Minimum Wage

Yesterday, 22/January/2019, president Buhari gathered some old rich men to approve a minimum wage of N30k for the poor young Nigerians. Apparently, the Nigeria’s constitution permits so, which it calls council of state meeting.

These old men were past Nigerian presidents, past Chief Justices of Nigeria, etc. The past presidents included Obasanjo and Jonathan excluding Yar’Adua (RIP) – the faces of PDP 16 years misrule. Does it really make sense?

Do White people have higher IQ than black Africans?

Dr James Watson

In 2007, Dr James Watson, the pioneer in DNA studies, told the Times newspaper that he was "inherently gloomy about the prospect of Africa" because "all our social policies are based on the fact that their [Black Africans] intelligence is the same as ours [White people] - whereas all the testing says not really".

The "Imperfect Man” And His Fears

Mark Twain wrote: “If you pick a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between dog and man.”

It’s not only a dog that behaves in this manner. An African (Igbo) proverb states; that a fowl does not forget the man who plucked her feathers during the rainy season.

Friendly Fire From 'Field-marshal' Nnamdi Kanu: Firing At His Own People

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the supreme leader of Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB), the ‘prophet’, the ‘Messiah’ of IPOB, has risen from ‘death’. He ‘died’ in Nigeria but resurrected in Jerusalem.

From Jerusalem he will return to Nigeria bringing hell with him, in his own words. His hell is probably reserved for all those who do not believe in him and IPOB. Like all the messiahs, there’s always a second coming. At least this messiah is not coming back from heaven.

The Archbishop of Canterbury: Pray For Peaceful Elections In Nigeria.

But The More We Pray The More Things Worsen In Africa

When some people are asked to pray to God for their needs, and other people don’t pray to God for their needs, yet their needs are supplied, confirms the adage: "as you make your bed, so you must lie on it."

The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, advised Christians in Nigeria to pray fervently for peaceful elections next year (2019). Mr Archbishop, in your country, United Kingdom (UK), do you pray fervently for peaceful elections? The answer is no.

Then, why do you do think that prayer will guarantee peaceful elections in Nigeria when peaceful elections are conducted in the UK without prayers?
