Nigeria's Transformation

Let me say something here. Some people will think it's because of Jewo but will like all to know whatever he said with respect to what I'm writing is not an argument. Everyone is entitled to his opinion. We are not fighting. I will surprise you to know that despite my stand here always on political matters that I'm sure some of you think this govt will never have a fault in my eyes. Well, no one is perfect so mistakes must be made. What matters is learning from the mistakes.

I hate to delve into Nigeria's current political matters. However, my observation from the list of appointees is that Mr. President has surrounded himself with Northerners in the areas of security because those are the ones he knows and trusts. He believes they cannot betray him because of money. It is only natural and realistic that any person in such a position as Mr. President will only appoint those he trusts to security positions. All former Nigerian Presidents did the same. Otherwise, why did Former President Jonathan retire the Service Chiefs and security apparatus that served under President Yaradua and himself, immediately he became President? Thinking about it, the Northerners appear to be better in the areas of security and fighting financial crimes while the southerners are better in matters of managing the economy and finances if the country. Why not combine both for the benefit of Nigeria by deploying people more to their areas of competences. What matters are results. If Nigeria becomes as prosperous as USA in Africa nobody cares whether it was achieved by a leader from a particular tribe or religion in Nigeria. Instead, we shall be the proud beneficiaries of such an achievement. Think of an industrialised Nigeria with thousands of industries employing millions of Nigerians. A Nigeria with a vibrant agricultural industrial sectors that is able to feed all Nigerians and all African in addition to exporting massive agricultural products (raw & finished) to generate significant foreign exchange for the country. How about becoming the foremost mining country in Africa and one of the largest in the world. How about having the largest petroleum refining and petrochemical industry in Africa. Having even more robust Nollywood,  telecoms, high technology business successes that will significantly improve  Nigeria's economic sectors. If these are achieved, Nigeria should have very low unemployment rate of less than 5%, very robust foreign exchange reserves and surplus balance of trade position with its trading partners. Nigeria can easily achieve the status of a major net exporter of goods and services in the world today. The question is does it matter where a President that will enable Nigeria achieve the  above come from? Does it matter who he trusts to help him achieve the above? Thank God we have solid and active religious organizations in Nigeria that will never allow a state religion in Nigeria's current circular religious status. If the government of the day fails to perform, Nigerians can easily vote out that govt every 4 years, regardless of incumbency. Had to write a long post as my network might not permit me to say all I want to say for now.

Blinded Devotion.........

Have you ever wondered what it is that makes people tick?  What moves people to do the things they do?  What causes people to react in the many ways they do?</strong></em> There can be no leaders without some form of followers. They( most leaders), with their smooth and fair speech, beguile the hearts of the innocent.  Because the leaders are blind, those who follow after them likewise are blind.  Their sense of assurance is a false sense of assurance.  They think they have peace when in reality they are like Judah of old crying, “Peace, peace; when there is no peace” (Jeremiah 6:14).  Many of our own congregations are like the churches at Sardis who have a reputation that lives but are dead (Revelation 3:1) and at Laodicea who say, “I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing;” but are really “wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked” (Revelation 3:17).   The blind...

Worthy Sacrifice…

How much of our sacrifice will God consider worthy? How much of our praises, worships, thanksgiving, will God consider as worthy enough? Psalms 51:17 (KJV)   says “ The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise. As I was observing my siesta after I returned from service, I don’t know if I was dreaming but all I kept hearing was “ worthy sacrifice, worthy sacrifice”.   I quickly woke up and knew God wanted me to write on this topic. I started by asking myself what kind of sacrifice will I offer to the Lord and it will be considered a worthy sacrifice? What kind of sacrifice will you offer to God and it will be considered a worthy sacrifice? Abraham is the father of many nations, loved and blessed by God. Today we are proud to say we are the sons of Abraham. We even have a popular song we sing in Nigeria “ Father Abraham has many sons, many sons have father Abraham, I am one of them and so are you, ...
