salt and ebola

I don't really get this salt water business at this rate we should prepare for salt scarcity, fear always make people do baseless things, first of all, even if you are in lagos it doesn't mean you are at risk, not every part of lagos is infected. The risk of high salt intake its as follows higher blood pressure, hypertension and it is regarded as the single most important risk factor of stroke. So you are at higher risk of getting killed by your fear than ebola. Also you can't prevent ebola by the intake of anything even if you drink dettol or bath with it, ebola is transmitted through contact with body fluids of infected persons, and so the only way to protect yourself is to stay the hell away from anyone that seems like a potential carrier, those that have been to lagos, Liberia (other infected areas) recently and don't let anyone touch you anyhow at least for now. The only advice I can give is that you either take fruits or vitamin c to boost your immunity and that, has no side effect and least it helps to keep the mind at rest when you know you have an insurance. And apart from God only your immunity could save you. Please stay safe, wisdom is safety!

On the president and his balls

I read about FFK’s ‘stroking’ of our dear president (I dare not use commander in chief simply because, he has not yet earned the right to such appellation, I guess he is still bloody civilian) anyways the dear honey of some people’s Jesus Christ, our very own madam Peshe, might have been accused of having no balls.

So let me start with my brief history, epistle, maybe lamentation on our dear president, first of all I never liked him, simply because he dines with the devil (PDP), I guess he is now paying for that no. Because as they  say the devil always comes to collect as is the case of G7; now back to the matter, it’s also because someone close to me campaigned for him on the basis that he was a Christian, and Christians are always good and righteous  so he should be voted for, when we all knew there were better options (that’s not the right word there were less burdensome guys than him, since there has always been a dearth of leaders and abundance of rulers especially those that want to rule for 60 years), I guess we all  learnt our lesson because last time I checked petrol was not sold to Christians  at #65 we all pay the same price for the commodity.

All that is history now he won or rather didn’t lose the election, after that I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt. Since I believed he definitely would have learnt that he needed but nobody God. That he wouldn’t  give a damn what they think, he will feel that he had everything by chance so he won’t be bothered  by  the pressures from career politicians, some part of me really thought he could be the greatest Nigerian ever. Compared to the likes of Awolowo, Azikwe etc. That he will surround himself with fresh hands and heads, especially folks from the university system, and they will give us a country we can all take pride in.

But after I saw his ministerial selection, it was obvious there were better people for the posts, and now it’s obvious we are still running government business as usual the same way it as always been run yielding the same old abundance of disservice, but no matter his failures he is still the president.

Our country can be said to be a jet, with GEJ, as our chief pilot, and if he crashes the plane, may God help anyone without some cool cash stashed somewhere to protect them.

So before I make this all about me, let me reiterate that this is about our sleeping lion or tiger or whatever. This is to jolt him back to action, help him grow some balls, or rather point it in the right direction because he showed us really had it in him with his well-orchestrated and well packaged New Year gift (subsidy removal).

After I saw his “president address people” or “people address president”, I learnt some new things about him, I was impressed most especially with his comment on corruption, which I believe can only come from someone that really doesn’t give a damn what we think, or someone that can stand by his comments.

I must confess I totally agree with him on that issue, I care little about people who steal resources, I agree that is not our greatest challenge, they will get theirs sooner or later. But our problem is the lack of vision and the political will to actually get things done. We have proved times without number corruption is the Nigerian way, eating our national akara (resources) is not the most of my concern, as long as you give us the palm oil and pot (good roads network, policies, stable electricity, etc.) to use to fry and produce our own akara and if we have enough security as we go along with our daily business, I personally won’t give a heck what goes on Aso shell or in their conclaves. But still our resources cannot continue to be stolen at our own expense.

Everything starts from the top, that’s you Mr. president, your boys keep screaming transformation agenda, till the point it has lost its meaning and is not more than another political gimmick, I can bet more than 95% of Nigerians do not know what your grand agenda has to offer them at least I don’t, and I have heard it more than a million times.

My recommendation, is if you intend to contest for another term, you must first and foremost have bring this violent animals and traitors under control, you have to stop this bastards and all this they are my people as well gimmick is getting tiresome and must be stopped, as they are nothing more than maniacal tools in the hands of some spineless politician or they were. They should be shown their place, and not sympathy.

My advice is that as we all know that leading a country like Nigeria is difficult, but I believe, you believed in the fact that you could handle it, which was why you contested in the first place, it has always been said that uneasy lies the head that wears the crown ( I guess that’s why to me you only look ok with some head gear on) all I leader needs for success, is not even to be superfluously wise or smart, all you need to do is to surround yourself with capable hands and heads that do more political permutations, thereby increasing our standard of living.

All you need is the will and wise advisers. That’s all. And that will really be great and you will be able to give us what you promised us.

On a final note. we can’t have a president who in spite of all the powers vested in his office, will be handling high risk and sensitive issues with a flagrant display of impotence, one  that always has an excuse of either,  cabals, opposition and some imaginary corrupt and almighty Nigerians  in high places. As our leader you must bring down all the evil ones in the so called high places because the office of the president supersedes others and is the highest place in Nigeria.

We voted for you and what happens or do not happen will held to your account, and you will responsible for it, it’s time to stop all this bickering and focus on the main issues at hand.

I will implore you to take a break to actually study what is expected of and from you, and If you feel you are not man enough to  handle the heat its time you excused us.

We can’t have a sissy as president!!!!
