Life Is A Journey!

Life Journey!!!

We need to absolutely take charge of our rights in life, Determine where you want to go and where you want to stop before you start moving. You must be clear on your journey and destination.

Many of us are not so sure about our life or journey and our career path hence, we get so easily distracted by fags and funs, we take every advice or curtained every fear you heard in any direction, we don’t know where we are going in life and in career. 

Dear friend set a destination goal today.

Life journey can be liken to a story of a young lady that is been taught how to ride a bicycle;

The first lesson is for her to:

·         Be ready mentally for the training

·         Be patience enough for the training

·         Be focus at all time

·         Maintain balance at all time

·         Keep moving

·         Hold firm and control the

In life you need to be ready at all time to face life challenges and whenever you are faced with one, be patience enough to gather enough information that will help you throughout that period.

Most importantly you have to be focus always.  Challenges will come and when they come do not be distracted or discouraged. Many of us keep looking at our past, our history, our upbringing and won’t let go our hurt, the disappointments from people who were mean to us, we are filled with hanger, hate, vengeance and the weal s to prove something, yet this emotion keep frustrating and distracting our focus on the future.

Let the past go and focus on your future, you can’t chance the past anyway. Most of us bother ourselves so much to the extent to trying to impress or oppress people who don’t even care you exist. Your success or failure means nothing to them; they are too busy with their own life and challenge to think much of you. In fact you eventually succeed and become important they want to return to celebrate with you indeed, their real motive will be how they can take advantage of your success and use you to solve their personal problems and meet their personal needs, so why bother with people and events of your path.

Anytime you fall during life journey, you must learn to always stand up, dust yourselves and keep moving, just like riding a bicycle, you must keep peddling  till you get to that point where you’ve raised enough momentum on speed for the bike to keep moving without your peddling anymore, then the bike attain a state of auto cruise. Many of us in life when ridding against a heel or an elevation in life, we peddle for a while and stop. But the lesson is peddle for a while, don’t stop again, each time we stop we start rolling backward because it is a slope. When you are attaining your height in life and career, it is dangerous to stop half way, when you stop halfway you may have to start up over again. Riding to a top is usually an uphill task, it requires:

• Determination
• Hard work
• Persistence
• And courage

If you don’t give up, you could end up become a success.

Don’t give up on that program, exam, new business, new skill or career path. You must keep pushing till you get to the top if you don’t want to return to the base, because life is like that.

I assure you, a season is coming when you will be cruising without sweat if you don’t give up now, that just the way it is, life is like that.

Now that you have learned this why not encourage others around you to learn the same thing and allow them to increase their wealth of knowledge by sharing this site or write up with them.

Best Regards.

Smartphone Electrocution! How True?

Smartphone Electrocution! How True?

It was reported on Sunday 14th July, 2013 that a young lady called Ma Ailun age 23, collapsed to the floor on Thursday after using her iPhone 5 while the battery was being charged in China, probably due to electric shock discharged from her iPhone.

This case is under a serious investigation by the U.S. electronics giant Apple, in order to find out the real cause of her death. Meanwhile the police who are continuing their investigation, have not yet identified a cause to her death, whether the shock was from her iPhone or anything else.

According to a statement received by +CNN, Apple said:

 “We are deeply saddened to learn of this tragic incident and offer our condolences to the Ma family. We will investigate and cooperate with authorities in this matter.”

But the question is Why did Apple apologize to China, and why is China upset with Apple?

In some other report, Xinhua pointed out that mobile phones have a low output of only 3 to 5 volts, which isn’t enough to harm the human body.

My Question

Is smartphones now becoming death trap to innocent users now or are the users ignorant of the user guide?

MY ADVICE

Cell phones/Smartphones are a very useful and quite friendly to use, however, we must be conscious with the fact that it can also be an instrument of death if not handled with care.

Never use the cell phone while it is plugged to the electrical outlet!

If at any time you are charging your smartphone and a call comes in, Please try as much as possible to make sure that you unplug your smartphone from the charger before answering the call.

A lot of people are ignorant/guilty of this act.

A word they said is enough to the wise.

Lionel Messi the Goal scoring Machine set yet a New World Record!

Yes Lionel Messi has done it again... This time around He has scored a goal that brake and also set yet another football record of Highest numbers of goals scores in a calender year, with just 343 days to score 86 goals in 2012 to surpass Gerd Mulla's 1972 long standing record.

Messi needed just 25 minute of Barcelona 2-1 win at Betis to set this new record with three more games to end an historic year for him.

My Kobo Advice for Mr. President By Dele Momodu

My Kobo Advice for Mr. President

By Dele Momodu...

Your Excellency, please permit me to commiserate with you on the unfortunate and untimely death of your dearly beloved brother. I sincerely join other Nigerians in mourning what must have been a sad loss for you and your family in particular. As you travel back home to your tranquil village to pay your last respects, I pray you ponder on the free advice I’m about to offer you in good faith. Even if you’ve already returned to the gilded cage of Aso Rock Presidential Villa in Abuja, I wish to plead that you find the time to read this open letter which I would have communicated directly if I had the privilege of a private meeting with you.

Perhaps, I should quickly introduce myself as a journalist and politician.  Though I have seen you a few times at functions, we have never properly met. The only time we ever shook hands was when I joined others to mourn the death of, and celebrate, your father in Otueke village of Bayelsa State when you were still Vice President. I also saw you briefly in South Africa in 2009 but did not approach your table because your bodyguards didn’t look like they would appreciate any lesser mortal disturbing your peace.

I was amazed because I had just left the official residence of President Jacob Zuma in Pretoria and did not see more than a few guards in the house. I had spent quality time with him without any other soul than my South African friend I went with. I had gone there in a rented taxi but no one had asked us to go through metal/bomb detectors; or to drop our phones with members of the secret service. I did not see any ADC, CSO, CSD or any other security aide with similar nomenclature only known to, and made in, Nigeria. I think we just love big titles.  

Anyway, I saw you again when you invited Presidential candidates, of which I was one, to Aso Rock, last year to brief us on the need for peace during the elections. I doubt if you saw me, though the invitation came from your office. Most of the candidates snubbed you but I chose to attend out of respect for your person and office. I remember seeing Mallam Ibrahim Shekarau, who sat close to me, and Mr John Dara and so many politicians who I believed came because it was Aso Rock but really had no roles to play. Unfortunately, that meeting was nothing but a waste of time. You came and without even shaking hands with your co-contestants delivered your homily, answered a few questions and disappeared. There were no banters or interactions with us to cement a bond of friendship even if we wanted to take over your office.

I was surprised that you or your aides could not persuade most of the candidates to attend. Yet you went ahead to host an event that was obviously doomed before it began. I can only imagine how much was charged Nigeria for such hogwash. Ghana held a similar peace conference about two weeks ago and it was a star studded event. Part of great leadership quality is the ability to attract certified enemies and convince them to rise above prejudices and pettiness. I believe you have not reached out enough. Your aides have also not helped matters by their paranoia and neurotic approach to issues. They see enemies where none exist and fire all guns blazing at shadows. That is not how to build a nation.

One more example should suffice. You went on an official visit to Ghana.  I was invited by the then Nigeria High Commissioner to Ghana, Senator Musiliu Obanikoro, to attend the brief reception held for you at our High Commission in Accra. Again, it was impossible for most of us to have a simple handshake with you as your security aides practically treated us like common criminals unworthy of communion with the Almighty.  I finally gave up.

Sir, let me say emphatically that the biggest problem with Nigerian leaders is that once they attain power, they vacate this earth and migrate to another planet far away from fellow citizens. Leaders are elected to serve the people but in Nigeria we are compelled to serve our leaders and if possible starve to death in the process. We are not allowed to ask questions about how we are led or in reality, misled. This is the reason it is difficult for most of you to know what goes on in the real world. I suggest you borrow a leaf from Mr Babatunde Raji Fashola whose style fascinates me to no end. He drives through Lagos with no disruption to the lives of the people.

He responds promptly to reasonable text messages and emails. I know you’re very busy, but take time to see how President Obama jogs down or sprints up the Air Force One. It demonstrates a man on a mission.  Feel free to drive on Lagos-Ibadan Expressway and see things for yourself. Go into a pub and mix with the boys like President Clinton once did in Ireland. Refrain from blocking the house of God because you are attending a church service. Sir, no evil shall befall you. You are too distant from the people you lead. Show them love and you shall reap bountiful adoration. No massive security is necessary, once you make God first and suffer not his people. Conversely total security is no security where there is no Godliness. The love and prayers of Nigerians will keep you going.

I have decided to adopt a new approach in my column. I will take it upon myself to write this open letter as regularly as necessary and proffer solutions to different issues, in the hope that you will get to read it. I will tell you what your aides will never tell you. It is up to you to carefully read what I write and take your own decision. Let it be said that we told you but did nothing about it. I would have freed myself from the burden of “siddon-look.” I’m reasonably convinced that if you know the magnitude of problems confronting Nigerians you will work harder and change your style of governance unless you’re determined to fail spectacularly like others before you. I pray this will not be your portion.

Let me state categorically that I write this letter without any malice. More importantly I expect no personal gratification other than to see change in the lives of our people. I needed to make that clear since it is now in our culture to read motives to every good intention.

I have no other reason than out of patriotic fervour. I have not been to Abuja since last year because I’m dutifully engaged at home and abroad, and really have no reason to run up and down the corridors of power like the proverbial yo-yo. Every man must determine his needs in life. I know mine and I am happy and content to manage whatever God in his infinite kindness has given to me. We all have friends and families who have nowhere to go. If Nigeria becomes the country of our dream and there is a level playground for all of us, most citizens would thrive without living like pathological beggars. You’re in a position to leave Nigeria better than you met it. Look at most of the politicians and businessmen around you today. They were the same faces you saw with your predecessors. You are their new god today because of your position. Tomorrow, when you have departed, as you surely must do, they will move on again to the next person, without any qualms.

I have studied men and women of power at home and abroad and have sympathy for their tragic flaws. My discovery is that most leaders often fail to remember that whatever has a beginning must have an end.  Time also flies. And it waits for nobody.  Who could have imagined PDP in power since 1999 with nothing tangible to show for all the trillions of naira spent by various administrations? Who would believe that President Olusegun Obasanjo’s two terms came and disappeared within a twinkle of an eye? Or that even you have spent two years already as President and Commander-in-Chief?  The question that will later haunt you, as it is haunting others before you, for the rest of time is: what did you do with all your time in office and all the resources under your control?

I will say without any fear of contradiction that the money at your disposal right now is enough to transform Nigeria into a true giant if frugally managed. I will now go on to demonstrate what I mean.

Sir, for every one billion naira we waste on frivolous projects, the dream of a fresh thousand millionaires would have perished. If you hand me the N2.2 billion naira you are about to spend on building a new banquet suite in Aso Rock, I will instantly create 2,200 brand-new millionaire farmers from our large army of brilliant but unemployed youths.  Each of them would be able to employ 10 to 20 people in production, preservation, processing and distribution. If you think I’m joking, please hand me the money and I will urgently invite applications from potential beneficiaries. I and my team pledge not to earn a kobo from the project.

If I may ask, what is wrong with the banquet suite you presently have? Is it not better to spend money on providing jobs than trying to show off to visitors that we are prosperous in the midst of wanton poverty? I’m writing this letter from Cambridge University, one of the oldest surviving institutions of learning. The buildings of most Colleges here are as ancient as history, yet there is no plan to demolish them and build new ones. The problem with us is lack of a maintenance culture. You can rehabilitate the old banquet suite with less than N100 million and turn it into an architectural masterpiece. I’m sure you won’t spend your personal money the way ours is being poured away like rain water. Do you know how old Buckingham Palace is? If it was in Nigeria, we would have demolished it many times over in order to award some horrendous contracts.

I gather you want to build a new home for the Vice President at over N6 billion. This is sinful in a nation with over 12 generations of unemployed, and unemployable, graduates. What is wrong with the current Vice President’s home, Akinola Aguda House and wherever Alhaji Atiku Abubakar once lived? It smacks of gross insensitivity to waste resources in this manner. Please, give us that N6 billion and I will give you 6,000 productive millionaire entrepreneurs in Nigeria. Imagine each of them employing 10 people within the first year or two, we would have taken more than 60,000 youths off the streets. We’ve done it several times through Goke Dokun’s creative Entrepreneur Series on television and can do it even bigger in real life. As President, I would rather do this than build a home for a family of less than 50 people.

Mr President, Nigerians are not difficult to lead. In fact, we get carried away by little mercies. I know you have your sight on contesting elections in 2015. Let me assure you that you won’t have to campaign much, or spend billions to get re-elected if you listen to me. All you have to do is demonstrate to Nigerians that you can resist those carpetbaggers who see power only in terms of enjoyment. The world is building monuments and creating new inventions everywhere but we are busy wasting ours on flights of fancy like super jets, palaces, women and champagnes. We can do a lot better because God has endowed us with all we need to be among the greatest of the world. All it takes a little bit of vision and discipline.

Sir, there is nothing you want in life that God has not given you on a platter of gold. It is time for you to reciprocate by humbling yourself like all Saints. I will tell you about them and great names in history when I write my next epistle to you. If you hearken to the voice of reason, you will etch your name in gold.

Truly, like Jesus Christ (apologies to Christians), you will ride triumphantly into your own Jerusalem.

Personally, I think Dele Momodu is not just a brilliant journalist in Nigeria, but he is also a visionary Journalist whose analytical power is beyond description.  Being a Nigerian I believe that Nigeria as  a country has the potential to become a super power , first, at the continental level (Africa)and then join the rest of   the world super powers, if our resources are being manage properly… Else we are going nowhere!

Meanwhile, my suspicion is that Mr. Dele Momodu has been "fenced" from the corridor of power (for some unknown reasons to Him as a person) and he didn’t like it (Maybe Maybe not). That is my opinion and I think I have the right to that, I believe if he have been given access to the president, He would have been singing a different tune by now, and not “wasting” his precious time writhing an open epistle to Mr. “Sidon look”. Personally I think this is another Rueben Abati in d making, a social climber pretending to be social crusader. This might sound odd to your point of views, but that's just the simple way I see the whole scenario.

Best Regards.

United State President Barack Obama has been re-elected to a second term, defeating the Republican challenger Mitt Romney with Total vote of 303 to 206.

In his Victory speech before supporters in Chicago, President Obama said he would talk to Mr Romney about "where we can work together to move this country forward"  

Mr president promise to work with the Republican leaders in Congress to reduce the Governments budget deficit, fix the tax code and also reform the immigration system.

This is an historical winning for president Obama... and i think he deserve the re-election.

God Bless United State Of America.

However, Nigerians are very happy and learning from your success story.

President Barack Obama and Trust by Femi Fani-Kayode

CAN BARACK OBAMA BE TRUSTED?

Late on Sunday night while browsing the net, I came across this article on Omojuwa.com site and I think my followers also need to see this and pen-out their opinions over the article.

The Question that came to my mind after reading this article by Fani Kayode are:

1. Can Mr. Femi Fani-Kayode really talk about Trust?
2. Is He a trusted Man in Nigeria as a Nation, knowing His past Records and Positions?
3. How is this article going to affect our political standard in this Nation?
4. Is this a wake up call by Mr Femi Fani-Kayode?

Enjoy the Article!

The American Presidential elections will take place in a few days time and frankly some questions still need to be answered. I wish that Governor Mitt Romney had put one of those questions particularly to President Barack Hussein Obama during their last Presidential debate which was on foreign policy. Permit me to put that question here and it is as follows. Why did the President bow so low before Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah four years ago during his first state visit to the Arab Gulf state and why did he feel the need to almost touch his toes with his forehead when he did so.

It is a matter of historical record that no American President in the last 200 years has ever bowed so low before any foreign leader, Prime Minister, Head of State, President or monarch. It appears to me to be rather strange that Obama, on his first trip to the Middle East as President of the most powerful country on the planet, should literally prostrate before an Arab King whose country has an abominable record on human rights, civil liberties, the rights of women and religious minorities and where the system of government is a totalitarian and absolute monarchy. Luckily a picture was taken of that celebrated event and that picture really does tell us something about the American President’s mindset. Yet it does not stop there.

On that same trip four years ago, after leaving Saudi Arabia, Obama toured the greater part of the Middle East and Egypt and in speech after speech he escapologist to the Arabs for American policy in the Middle East over the previous 50 years. He did this despite the fact that in most of those countries Christians shia Muslims and ethnic minorities have no rights at all and even though they have been killed, persecuted and suppressed for many decades. Again he did this even though none of those countries were democracies and even though all of them, except for two, have refused to acknowledge the right of the Jewish State of Israel to even exist.This left a bad taste in the mouth of many at the time and the question that came to my mind was whether the ”Hussein” was coming out of the ”Barack Hussein Obama” more than the ”Barack” itself was. Yet whatever anyone may feel about the issue of his touching his toes with his head and his bowing before the Saudi king, as far as I am concerned, President Obama is not what he appears to be. There is far more to him than meets the eye. A couple more questions will suffice to illustrate this point.

Why is it that each time Barack Obama is about to submit himself for a Presidential election and seek a mandate from his people there is a raging, monumental, earth-shattering and record-breaking freak of a storm which kills numerous people in America? It happened a few days before his Presidential election in 2008 and it is has just happened again a few days before his Presidential election in 2012. 

Again why is it that on the first day of the convention of the opposition Republican party, both in 2008 and again this year, yet another violent and dangerous killer storm hit the towns in which the two conventions were held causing them both to be partially disrupted? 

What is Obama’s relationship with the elemental forces? 

What is his relationship with God or some lesser deity? 

What is his source of power

and what is his spiritual foundation? 

There is no doubt that he is a powerful orator and that he delivers brilliant speeches that mesmerizes his audience. Yet so did Adolf Hitler and we all know what he was. I ask these questions because President Obama has supported every anti-christian and anti-faith policy that the American permissive state has thrown up and endorsed in recent years. The violation and literal denunciation of these religious core values, in my view, betrays the unfolding of an illicit,dark, sinister and subterranean anti-Christ agenda which must be rejected by all true men and women of faith. They must be renounced by every christian, every Jew and every Muslim and indeed all those that truly espouse the noble values and virtues of any of the three Abrahamic faiths. They must be rejected by all those that believe in the supremacy and efficacy of a monotheic God whose core values and holistic principles and standards are worthy of emulation and of being respected and cherished. There are many examples of these gross violations of our core religious values but permit me to share just four of them with you here. 

Firstly, President Obama has endorsed a woman’s right to have an abortion and he has publically denounced ”the right to life” of unborn babies. 

Secondly, he has endorsed same-sex marriages. 

Thirdly, he has consistently supported homosexuality and the rights of homosexuals and lesbians. 

And fourthly, and perhaps the most disturbing of all, he has endorsed the right of same-sex couples to adopt and raise children. 

Quite apart from these four Obama has also endorsed all manner of social perversions and deviant behaviour in the name of humanism, ”new age” liberalism and the permissive American state. No true believer or person of faith can possibly accept such practices, endorse such values and still stand right before God.

To put the cake on the icing let me make one more point. Rev. Jene Robinson, a vocal and practicing homosexual, whose ordination as a Bishop split the Anglican Church in America into two, was specially selected by Obama to deliver the invocation of the name of God and prayers at the beginning of the inaugural weekend of his inauguration ceremony as President in 2008. What message was Obama trying to send to America and to the world by insisting on this?

Outside of the area of social and religious values President Obama has also failed in the area of foreign and domestic policy. A few examples will suffice. The unprecedented number of drone attacks in Pakistan and Afghanistan which has led to record highs in the number of deaths of innocent Muslim civilians, women and children in both countries. The alienation of Pakistan and Afghanistan as key allies in the war against terror. The destabilization of north Africa and the opening of the door for Islamist insurgents in the north African Arab Sahel states and the west African sub-region. The display of weakness and procrastination before Iran and its covert agenda to build a nuclear bomb. The display of double standards in the State of Bahrain and the over-pampering of the Arab Gulf states. The sheer mess that has been created in Syria and the indecision and procrastination of the Obama administration who have abandoned the opposition forces in that country even as thousands of innocent people are being slaughtered by Assad’s brutal regime.The insincerity of purpose and sheer coldness being displayed towards Israel and the indifference to her dangerous and existential plight. The disdain and contempt shown to all people of faith, the evangelical movement, the christian far-right and the vision of the old Pilgrim Fathers that founded the great country that is known as the United States of America.

The removal of the words “God” and “Israel” from the Democratic Party Convention. The disastrous handling of the American economy that has acquired a five trillion dollar deficit in the last four years. The rise of Islamic fundamentalism in Mali and Nigeria due to a shortsighted and reckless policy in Libya. The taking of power by the fundamentalist Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt and the rise in power of Al Shabbab in Somalia and East Africa. The inexplicable refusal to declare Boko Haram (the Islamist terror group that is bombing and killing thousands in northern Nigeria) as a terrorist organisation.The gradual turning of America into a quasi- welfarist state where ”big government” reigns and in which the traditional engine room of growth that is known as the American middle class is being systematically weakened and destroyed. The desecration of the traditional family unit and good old fashioned christian values by the adoption of strange and liberal “new age” practices, values and philosophies. The inability to protect the lives of American diplomats living abroad and the lack of firm reprisals after the killing of the American Ambassador and other Americans by terrorists in Libya. The massive foreign debt that America has acquired in the last four years. The huge quantum of cash that America is is now owing China and so on and so forth.

These are just some of Obama’s disastrous legacies and sadly the mistakes he has made in his foreign policy in north Africa particularly impacts on us directly in Nigeria and in West Africa. Let me give you just one example of that. Had it not been for the fall-out of the mess in Libya and the brutal way in which Muammar Ghadaffi, the Libyan leader, was murdered in cold blood one year ago, his Taureg friends and allies in north Africa would not have been inspired and driven to take over northern Mali and create a Taliban-style Islamic fundamentalist state there and northern Nigeria would not have been flooded with jihadist foot-soldiers and all manner of sophisticated arms and bombing devices for usage by Boko Haram.

With Obama all we see and hear are beautiful and inspirational speeches, a good deal of doublespeak, a failed economic policy and a weak, dangerous and thoroughly uninspiring foreign policy. Worst still all we see in Obama’s African policy is unpredictability, chaos, the appeasement of terrorists and utter confusion. Given this I cannot come to any other conclusion than the fact that President Barack Hussein Obama cannot be trusted with America or indeed the world for the next four years. In my view he is a very mysterious, strange and complex man and sadly he has proved to be a thoroughly disappointing President. Consequently my prayer is that Governor Mitt Romney defeats him in the Presidential election which will hold Tuesday 6th November. If he does not I fear that the much predicted “beginning of the end” of America as a world economic power may have just begun. With China on the rise, Russia waxing strong, Brazil, India and Japan flexing their muscles and the European Union finally beginning to take shape and find her feet, in the next twenty years the world will be a very different place and America may no longer be “prima inter pares” (the first amongst equals). Only Romney can stop that downward trend. I am aware of the fact that, given Obama’s ancestry, this may not be a popular position to take amongst those of us that are people of colour and that are Africans but nevertheless it is still my position. I may be wrong but at least I have provided some food for thought.

Finally let us remember President Obama’s health policy. This can be framed as follows- ”President Obama Vs Revelations 13:15-18”. The US Senate has passed the Obama Health Care’ bill into law. The implementation would commence on 23/03/ 2013.This bill would require all Americans to be implanted with a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) chip in order to access medical care.The device will be implanted on the forehead or on the arm. This is to fulfill the prophesy in the Book of Revelation 13:15-18 concerning the MARK OF THE BEAST! Anyone that has ears should listen. 

God bless America.

Hmm! Food For Thought.

Remember Mr. Femi Fani-Kayode was a two time Minister and Special Adviser under the Olusegun Obasanjo regime.

Mrs Ajimobi The Wife of Oyo State Governor Denies Money Laundering Arrest in London.

Its all over the news that Mrs. Florence Ajimobi, the wife of Governor Abiola Ajimobi of Oyo state was involved and arrested for Money Laundering by the Metropolitan Police in London.

Meanwhile, speaking with journalist in a telephone interview on Tuesday October 30th, 2012 the governor's wife (Mrs Ajimobi) said the news are all lies from the opposition parties who are trying to discredit the Ajimobi led administration in the state.

The News was first sighted online through one of the evening newspaper, who published a report entitled"Anxiety over Florence Ajimobi's alleged arrest in UK" which was also claimed by Newsleak, that the wife of the governor had been arrested in London for money laundering.

She was asked if there was any invitation by the Metropolitan police since her arrival in London, which she said, "NO, not at all, I came back with my daughter on Sunday  and am getting ready to come back home. I have not been invited by the police and I don't know what all this is about."

She further said, she took her 14 years old daughter back to school after her holiday.

She was also asked to comment on the rumor that she have traveled more than 50 times since the inception of her husband administration, she simply said, "It then means I am not living in Nigeria. Maybe, when I travel back, I will show you my passport to count how many times i have traveled" she further said, "I will want you to deal with facts. If you look at my passport since 2007 and compare the way I traveled then with the way I travel now, you will discover that I travel less now.

Back at home in Nigeria, the governor has instituted a N1bn suit against the Independent communication Network Limited, publishers of PM News for the report.

The Special One or The Unique one and Barcelona!

This season has been a very challeging one  for Jose Mourinho, if there is one strong man in the world of football who is always on the front page of News papers, then that man must be Jose Mourinho.

Ever since Mourinho came to Spain to manage the Whites Club"Real Madrid" a lot of pressure has been mounted on Him to deliver good football and win trophies. But one club that has always been a torn in his flesh is FC Barcelona who are loaded with world best players like Lionel Messi, Xavi and Iniesta, who kept denying Him and his player most especially C Ronaldo trophies year in year out.   

Meanwhile, over the years, his hard tackling style of football on and off the pitch has made him many friends and quite a few enemies as well. Take it or leave it, Mourinho can never be ignore base on his style of football and winning attitude.

This season, he started his Laliga campaign on a poor note due to some error and internal issues with his players. Currently they are behind Barcelona with eight points margin, while also competing with other European heavyweights in the champions League, "group of death" which he just have to win every game in order to qualify to the next stage.

Both in Laliga and Champions League there are lost of expectations from Mourinho to deliver, so also are lot  of people are expecting him to fail.

So the BIG ??? now is Can he overcome the 8 point league leader Barcelona?, Can he Overcome the Champions league group of death?, Can he control his porous team where players are having personal issues  with the club and fellow team mates? I hope he find a good answer to this questions... because without a solid answer them, he will be consider a failure this season.

Wishing him and his team all the best this season.
