THE OIL - BONE OF CONTENTION

Let's tell our selves the truth. There is no unity in Nigeria. The amalgamation was done for administrative convenience of the colonial masters. Since the centre cannot hold again, can we leave in peace for what inheritance do we have in Mohammed neither do we share common belief with Boko haram and their sharia. The unity we are talking about is the petroleum. So let NIGER DELTA come up to defend their birth right.

Just once the rightful owner of the resources assumed office, these animals are trying to make him uncomfortable.

Anywhere Sir Lord Lugard and his administrators are now, they will be regretting for bringing together mutually incompatibles. Ojukwu saw this in time but "sabos" had their ways. Tell me what the north and south has in common, different climate, religion, dressing, language, custom, etc.

Now the common law holding us together, the boko haram are calling for Sharia. You see! Losing lives everyday is a thing of joy to this sect in the name of religion. Who are these boko haram, are they not living among us? Are they spirits? Are they above the law? Don't we have their equivalents in the south? If they are animals, can't they be tamed?

I am weeping for Nigeria. Nothing good can come out of this nation. We are peace keepers in other countries while we have porous security. Any village a grasshopper kills an elephant is not habitable. If Abuja, the nation's seat of power has fallen to Boko Haram, let's surrender to them but if the federal troop is still in control, let them smash these vagabonds. What other sample do the government need to know that these guys mean business? The visited the police and UN offices during working hours to show that they are not cowards. Repeated bombing of Nyanya is not a child's play. Abduction of more than 230 Chibok Girls by  these terrorists is pure evil and shows you how heartless they are. Going by there logistics, even Aso Rock is not safe.

Let's the President know that he's the target, when they must have dislodged his administration, his elimination won't be a surprise. Now, No matter of urgent importance to the nation should exceed this security flaws. GEJ, no need extending goodwill to enemies of progress, if you cannot deal with them, better lose the wild dogs in the creeks to come forward. He who lives by the sword shall die by the sword. 1914 - 2014 is enough for the amalgamation, let's try disintegration come 2015.

O GOD, OUR HELP IN AGES PAST

O GOD, OUR HELP IN AGES PAST!

1. O God, our help in ages past,

Our hope for years to come,

Our shelter from the stormy blast,

And our eternal home.

2. Under the shadow of Thy throne

Thy saints have dwelt secure;

Sufficient is Thine arm alone,

And our defence is sure.

3. Before the hills in order stood,

Or earth received her frame,

From everlasting Thou art God,

To endless years the same.

4. A thousand ages in Thy sight

Are like an evening gone;

Short as the watch that ends the night

Before the rising sun.

5. Time, like an ever-rolling stream,

Bears all its sons away;

They fly forgotten, as a dream

Dies at the opening day.

6. O God, our help in ages past,

Our hope for years to come,

Be Thou our guard while life shall last,

And our eternal home

Five Characteristics of a Good Poster. By Amucha Kelechi E.C

A poster is a powerful advertising tool and technique whenever created properly. Every single good poster has many things in typical. A poster that does not contain these properties is probably to under whelm you alongside its functional performance. Keep these 5 attributes in mind before you embark on poster design and printing.

1. SUITABILITY
A poster's job is to communicate the information quickly and additionally efficiently. Many starting business-people think that they have to bring just as much as they can onto their posters. Unfortunately, trying to put too much information, or perhaps too many pictures, into your poster makes it look challenging and additionally cluttered. A cluttered poster cannot "talk" to its audiences promptly, which prevents it from doing its selected job. A good poster is simple and easy but effective. It informs everyone that looks at just it what they are expected to know without delay.

2. ATTRACTIVE
Obviously, a good poster is appealing enough to bring in your target customers. You need to include elements into the poster that definitely will entice the target customers to examine the poster and get the information you want them to have. It is usually a good idea to include provides in your posters to achieve attention. Or, you are able to throw in some interesting information that pertains to your subject. You could include a mental picture or image which is attention grabbing.

3. CONVINCING
Since you already stated, that you do not like to contain too much information in the poster. However, you must give your readers enough to convince them which just what you are saying is accurate. Utilize brief but powerful remarks to back up the claims. Be cautious not to overextend yourself. Do not make claims or exaggerations which you cannot defend. In truth, not producing any sort of claims at just all is usually a good piece of advice. Simply use just what you ought to get the point all over.

4. COLOUR EFFICIENCY
Monochrome posters are really not almost since effective as colour posters. A poster which incorporates colour into its scheme definitely will attract more watchers. Complete colour brochures tend to be a lot more effective and additionally definitely will have a much more potent influence in your customers. Just be sure to use colour in a strategic way, however. Utilizing the wrong colours can backfire in you.

5. SIMPLICITY
A few of the vast majority of effective posters tend to be unexpectedly straight-forward. Few posters will not even have any text at every one of them; simply few well placed images and strategically picked colours. I'm not suggesting you should not use phrase in your poster - you need to - however always try to keep your poster simple as you can, when nevertheless conveying the point. Each poster which you design must have one strong message; don’t just be sure to do too a lot with it.

LET US PRAY AND REMEMBER THEM ( All Souls Day. November 2, 2013)

LET US PRAY AND REMEMBER THEM

We can ignore it and not talk about it. We can go on with life and forget about it all. Yet, we cannot avoid it. Sooner or later, death will visit our homes and snatch away some of our dearest ones.

How can we deal with this event that will one day take our son forever? How can we prepare to face our loved one’s farewell agony? What can we do to fill the emptiness that follows the departure of our best friends and family members?

Death is like a door that leaves each one of us alone. Once that door is shut, the decease one stays away from us forever. We really don’t know what his / her condition is. The one we called “dear and near” to us is now a mystery. How can we deal with such impotence, uncertainty and immense pain?

It is not easy. All along the years, we have changed so much inside us. We have become more critical, but also more vulnerable. We have turned more sceptical, yet more insecure. We are more convinced that we will never get everything our hearts aspire to.

Hence we should remember, especially in this our society, the words of Jesus Christ, and make them echo in our ears with humility and surrender to the great mystery: “Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God. Believe in me, too.”

I believe that almost everyone, believers, hardly believers and poor believers, can face death with these two things: tears and prayers. We can pray for and remember the dead. Every one of us, with whatever little faith we still possess, can pray and show condolence. We may all have problems with our faith, strong or wavering, but God will never have any problem understanding our impotence, and He will fully comprehend our deepest emotions.

When we attend a funeral, in response to the death of a dear one, surely we may be thinking or praying along this way “We have come here because we still love you, although we don’t know what to do for you. Our faith is so weak and uncertain. We entrust you to the bountiful goodness of God. You certainly will be more secure with Him than with us. Wish you well. God will take care of you better than anyone of us has done. We leave you in His hands”
