Lagos Yellow buses and their Menace

The picture of the bus above shows an example of the yellow buses that ply Lagos metropolis. The sight is not only not befitting but badly constructed for human safety. Unfortunately, a bar of iron was constructed across the windows and one wonders what happens in an emergency. The interior speaks volumes about safety as iron bars and wood were everywhere in the name of seat for human beings to use for a journey that sometimes can last three (3) to four (4) hours. The red mark is pointing at the iron bar that was placed across the window. It has become normal that passengers stand at the entrance to these buses- This is abnormal even though it is seen and accepted as normal in Lagos metropolis. If not normal why do these buses go free everyday without law enforcement challenging this act and many more traffic laws that are violated everyday.

Vietnam Law against freedom

Vietnam online law comes into force http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-23920541
It is unfortunate that an autocratic law of this type should be allowed by the Vietnamese government.

If you gag freedom for awhile it will wait to hunt you sooner than later

"Some policemen are robbers, extortionists – AIG"

See below a copy of news item by Punch newspaper in Nigeria about policemen. Are policemen in other parts of the world be described this way? If not why is ours like this. I salute the courage of the AIG for saying the truth. Only very few Nigeria leader will say this. I pray he will not be 'punished' for the truth. Please enjoy this truth which we could all bear witnesses to but lacked the courage to stand up to the truth-the very reason Nigerians are suffering in the hands of the greedy and uncaring leaders: The Assistant Inspector-General of a Police, Zone 6 Command, Mr. Jonathan Johnson, has said many Nigerian police officers lose their lives daily because of their involvement in illegal activities. Johnson said this during his visit to Akwa Ibom State Police Command in Uyo on Tuesday. He said, “If you investigate our men, you will discover they are armed robbers. They are not contented with what they have. “We go to the road to extort money from people, engage in illegal business, and liaise with armed robbers.” The AIG warned that if any police officer was caught in any criminal acts, they would be dismissed. The AIG said, “No criminal has lived in his criminality and has never been caught. “If you want to live in palava, you will die in palava.” He alleged that police officers sold ammunition to criminals, aiding and abetting, manipulating cases, conniving with suspects and conspired with criminals. He said corruption was rampant in the Criminal Investigation Department of the Police Force. Johnson alleged that police officers supplied information to hoodlums, which aided the criminals to be able to kill policemen. He revealed that it was a policeman that gave information to a community in Nasarawa State, which led to the hoodlums killing over 60 policemen. He stated that police officers also became security guards for individuals and corporate bodies without any authority assigning them to the beat. “The police officers turn themselves to security guards for individuals and corporate organisations without any one assigning them. “They also go on illegal duty for the purpose of extorting money from drivers and motorists,” he said. He stated that the police officers would not want to pay for the houses they lived. Johnson stated that these attributes had worked against the police as the public no longer had respect for the police. He said, “We have turned tyrannical to the public, that is why we receive condemnation everywhere we go.” Source:http://www.punchng.com/news/ome-policemen-are-robbers-extortionists-aig/ .Aug14th 2013

American War Veterans are Lucky

Where are Nigerian war veterans, wasting on the queue for their pension. Nigeria please borrow a leaf from this.
When last did government of Nigeria talked about our retirees. The last was that the man who embezzled their pension has been bailed from detention.

Fallout of unemployment situation in Nigeria

It is unfortunate that unemployment situation in Nigeria has worsened to the extent that PhD holders that our Universities are in dire need of are about being considered for truck driving job with a company in Nigeria. Hunger in the midst of plenty is what I will call it. Whereas a governor recently crashed in his private jet and nobody is asking where did he got the money and which school trained him as a pilot. The commonwealth of the Nigerian people is ending in private pockets while the people suffer. Source: www.vanguardngr.com

WORLD FOOD DAY

Thank God for another world food day. Developing countries should use this reminder to rescind their greed and help the poor in their great numbers in their midst. They should review their obnoxious policies and for God's help the poor. As vast as the uncultivated land in Nigeria we still import almost 70% of food that feed the populace in a relatively highly resourced society like Nigeria. We hope this should change with the world food day reminder.

HAPPY TEACHERS' DAY

Corruption In Nigeria

It is amazing that agencies of Nigerian governemnt collude with each other to defraud the Nigerian people.

September 11 is here again

September eleven 2001 was a black day in American history and indeed the whole world when over three thousand people died due to the callousness of a group named al-Qaeda. Today we commiserate with the families of people that lost their love ones. I am however baffled by the number of years it took American nation to track down the ring leader of the twin tower disaster. I ask myself that indeed the only one almighty is God who cannot be beaten. It shocked the whole world that this could happen in America who was tag the policeman of the world. More so that it took America a decade to get the hench man down.

Channel television news, a local television station in Nigeria confirmed twenty three (23) dead in the recent bombing of the UN headquarters in Abuja Nigeria. Most of those wounded are already flown out of Nigeria for better treatment.

UN House Bombing in Abuja Nigeria

The 26th of August bombing of the UN house in Abuja shows a great surprise on how much the mission of United Nations is misconstrued. The unodays project in the years to come shall promote the mission of UN through the marking of her various days in the grassroots. We commiserate with the families of those that lost their life and those wounded. We wish them quick recovery.
