Your presence is a present to the world.
You are unique and one of a kind.
Your life can be what you want it to be.
Take the days just one at a time.
Count your blessings, not your troubles.
You will make it through whatever comes along.
Within you are so many answers.
Understand, have courage, be strong.
Do not put limits on yourself.
So many dreams are waiting to be realized.
Decisions are too important to leave to chance.
Reach for your peak, your goal and you prize.

In Pictures: Anti-Buhari protesters In Chatham House, London
There were also anti-Buhari protesters at the Chatham house to protest against the APC presidential candidate. see more photos below...
Nigeria's Transition: Buhari's speech at the Chatham House
Finally the Chatham speech. It is a long one, the beginning is a bit of history and the election in the eye of the world. When you go way down, from where Nigeria is mentioned as been in the 4th republic the main story starts there. I highlighted some parts to help your reading. Below is the Speech...
Permit me to start by thanking Chatham House for the invitation to talk about this important topic at this crucial time. When speaking about Nigeria overseas, I normally prefer to be my country’s public relations and marketing officer, extolling her virtues and hoping to attract investments and tourists. But as we all know, Nigeria is now battling with many challenges, and if I refer to them, I do so only to impress on our friends in the United Kingdom that we are quite aware of our shortcomings and are doing our best to address them.
The 2015 general election in Nigeria is generating a lot of interests within and outside the country. This is understandable. Nigeria, Africa’s most populous country and largest economy, is at a defining moment, a moment that has great implications beyond the democratic project and beyond the borders of my dear country.
So let me say upfront that the global interest in Nigeria’s landmark election is not misplaced at all and indeed should be commended; for this is an election that has serious import for the world. I urge the international community to continue to focus on Nigeria at this very critical moment. Given increasing global linkages, it is in our collective interests that the postponed elections should hold on the rescheduled dates; that they should be free and fair; that their outcomes should be respected by all parties; and that any form of extension, under whichever guise, is unconstitutional and will not be tolerated.

Why Siblings Fight(and Why we All Fight Like Siblings)
Remember that moment when you fight with your siblings and then you both start crying blaming each other for being wrong. Dr Kelly in this article tell us why we fight like siblings and what we are competing for. Enjoy it...
Siblings fight because they assume love is a limited resource. They assume they have to compete for caring. In other words, siblings are just like the rest of us.
I was brutal to my siblings.
I beat up on my little brother’s shoulder and I beat up on my little sister’s heart. When we were all grown and had gone our separate ways, I realized what I’d done, and I started to beat up on myself. I felt guilty about being a bully and sad about the lost opportunity to be their friend.
Even after they accepted my apology, I couldn’t forgive myself.
So, instead, I decided to redeem it. By cultivating a sense of companionship amongst my own children. It seemed simple enough. But encouraging mutuality and tenderness between siblings is way easier said than done. Siblings swing quickly upon a pendulum from caring for each other to competing with each other.
What are they constantly competing for?
Love.
They assume it’s a limited resource.

Opinion: Another Boy with no Shoes.
Photo Credit: Google
When I sat down close to him I knew he was just boy, just like many others I have seen en-route my journey home.
When I got into the car, I could tell he was looking at me and I turned to stare at him but he was looking downwards timidly. As is typical of me, I like to poke nose into matters wey no concern me.
So I thought of engaging him, I asked him for the wrestling cds he was holding so I could look at the cover pack. I began to ask him the names of the wrestlers on the cover page, he answered them accurately. Well, I can't remember all the names but he mentioned a "Hawk or Shawn", I suppose. After the wrestling friendliness, I asked him my first question.
Do you prefer what you are doing? I asked, he ignored me stared downwards and I asked my question again, Do you prefer what you are doing?
No, he answered.
I asked him a second question, who do you stay with here in Lagos?
My Uncle, He said.
I could see the pain in his face as his fair skin turned red in colour, he couldn't look at me so that I don't see that which is in his eyes. We took the questions bit by bit in my local dialect(Igbo) his English was very poor.
The boy was barely 14years old and seemed very acquainted with Lagos which means he has been around for a year or more.

3 British Girls Leave Home to Join ISIS in Syria.
A week ago three British school girls packed their bags and left hom to join ISIS group. The three teenage girls named Kadiza Sultana, 16, Shamima Begum, 15, and Amira Abase, 15, are three friends from East London’s Bethnal Green left their by 8:00am local time, to board a Turkish flight. The girls are suspected to be enroute Syria to join ISIL.
Reports says "British Jihad Brides" are being groomed on line , being brainwashed on Twitter and are asked to contact the Islamic state through a programme called Surespot.
According to dailymail,
The app – run by privacy and drug legalisation campaigners in Colorado – is designed so messages are totally encrypted and cannot be intercepted by authorities.
When messages are deleted by the IS member, they automatically also erase from the phones used by the British teenagers so no trace of the incriminating conversation is left.
Surespot’s owners, who have made an estimated £140,000 in revenue since it launched in 2013, insist it is protecting an ‘essential liberty’ and has no responsibility to stand in the way of IS. Continue to read more....

WTF: Faithful in Little Things.
The little stones of life are what grew into big rocks but with persistence and faithfulness. Everyone who grew so big were really small but kept working had to see their dreams come through.
In our present day, young people want to get it quick(Sharp Sharp), it is okay to want that but you got to steal. We are not in the days where manner falls from heaven, you have to work.
Her name is Shirley, I was quite younger when I met her for the first time. She was a neighbor, lived in a rented apartment. She was schooled, studied Business Administration. But the no job situation in made her gather some money, which she invested into a cosmetic business. She was dedicated to it, preserved and faithful in what she was doing. Ten years down this road, she has her own cosmetic empire, has her own house in Lagos and one in her home town, happily married and successful.
Shirley is every young person who believes in hard work an if you preserve you will be at the top of your game. Everything starts small then becomes big. Be faithful in the little things you start with work hard in it and you will thrive.
Dreams are the ways of mere men. Dreams and work are the ways of Extra-ordinary men.

A Mother of two was dumped on facebook after spending 7000Pounds on Tunsia Toyboy
'I couldn't stand the thought of not speaking to him, so pretty soon I was giving him £70 a fortnight out of my benefits,' she explained.
'He thought I was rich, but I kept telling him it meant I had to go without. I had to bulk buy discount food and often skip meals. But at the end of the day he was going to be my husband, so what was mine was his.
Tracey Jackson, a mother-of-two discovered that her Tunisian fiancé had wed another woman when he posted his marriage certificate on Facebook.
Tracey met Atef Khadhraoui, 20 years her junior, on a social networking website. Over the next four years the 48-year-old lavished the 28-year-old with gifts and cash.
However, Tracey was left heartbroken when she discovered that he chose to repay her by marrying another woman – and not telling her.
Tracey from Rhyl, Wales, believes he must have used some of her money to fund the secret nuptials with his new wife, although he denies this claim.
She says that funding his lifestyle has left her struggling to manage financially.
'I'm convinced he must have spent at least some of my money marrying the other woman. He broke my heart and my bank balance. I'm left in crippling debt from loans.'
Tracey first met Atef after messaging him on the dating website, Tagged, in 2009. The couple then began speaking on Skype every night.
'He begged me to go out and see him,' Tracey said. 'But because of a hernia in my bowel, I can't work and receive disability allowance.

A little boy went to the fair with his dad and saw an inflatable clown sporting a sign that read, "Try to knock me down." He hit it, he slapped it, he pushed it – he struck it again and again, and the harder he hit, the quicker it seemed to bounce back up. No matter how hard he tried, it just would not stay down. His father watched as the boy punched the clown until he finally interrupted and asked, "How is it possible for the clown to keep standing back up, no matter how hard you hit it?"
The child scratched his head and said, "Dad, I think this clown is standing up on the inside."
Did you know that each of us has the ability to stand up on the inside? Let me explain. Continue.....

Setting Boundaries By Charly Boy(Must Read)
Boldly displayed in front of my house is this signage: We Shoot To Kill. Trespassers Will Be Violated.
Why this provocative warning? Many may wonder, perhaps many more are careful to hang around my property, before they get shot for loitering, for nothing. Well, just putting people on notice that I will violently defend my territory at all times; just like the dog and animals generally, pee on objects to mark their boundaries/territories. Yes, I don mark my territory be dat, no messing around.
Though I have not shot anyone yet, I will not hesitate to use extreme violence in defending my territory if push comes to shove. Yes, I will shoot to kill first, then ask questions later. Yesooo.
When there is heavy rainfall, we need umbrella; when our homes are dirty we need broom to sweep off the dirt, and when there is unfettered increase in crime/violence, we need weapons to defend and protect us and our loved ones at all times.
We all should know that we have a right to do so; and that we not only have the right, but also the duty to take responsibility for how we allow others to treat us.
We need to be able to tell people when they act in ways that are not acceptable to us; to either shape up or you trash them. Yes, like dorty. Continue below...

Former Jailed Aljazeera Journalist awarded British Journalism Prize
The three Aljazeera Journalists who were recently released from the Egyptian prison have bagged a prestigious British journalism award.
The Royal Television Society awarded the trio Peter Greste, Baher Mohamed and Mohamed Fahmy in recognition of an outstanding contribution to the advancement of television journalism.
Though Mohamed and Fahmy could not attend because of their bail conditions. Peter Greste who was there to represent the trio on Wednesday night said;
"I'd be willing to bet this award that journalists have never united around a single common cause in the way that they have ours. I know how important it has been.
"For us, in prison of course we knew a bit about it. We were aware of some of the demonstrations; we'd heard about the zip-the-lips campaign and the letters.
"At the personal level, it was hugely empowering. It helped put rods of steal into our spines, because we came to understand that this was about something far bigger than the three of us alone. It was about the universal principles of freedom of expression, about the public's right to know. And we knew you were right there with us."
Congratulations to them.

12 People Who Ruined the Jonathan's Administration.
I don't know the criteria they used to get these analysis but it is worth reading. If there is one thing that hasn't work well for President Goodluck Jonathan, it is the calibre of men and women who he has appointed in various positions.
Here are 12 personalities that have further dented president's personal image and image of his administration.
1. Alhaji Bamanga TukurHis disastrous tenure as PDP's national chairman was the biggest game changer for the PDP from which it might never recover. Bamanga's tenure also coincided is the period when three major opposition parties were consolidating into one major opposition party, but the chairman face to recognised the emerging, Instead, he encouraged the party leader to settle personal scores within the party. It was a cover for Bamanga to also settle personal scores of his own. He suspended a state governor for refusing to answer his phone calls. He watched askance as seven governor formed a faction called 'the new PDP' (nPDP), and he didn't care a hoot when five governors jumped ship and joined the APC.
2. Chief Edwin ClarkAs soon as Dr Goodluck Jonathan rose to the presidency, this Gowon-era Information Minister created for himself a position hitherto unknown in Nigeria politics, that of the president's ethnic godfather. No yoruba pontentate occupied the post during Olursegun Obasanjo's eight years and even the feeble President Umaru Yar'adua has no such godfather. Rather than use his extra-constitutional position to steady the presiden's position, Clark use it to create numerous enemies for Jonathan through his use of intemperate language and regular assaults at dissenting folks.

Permission to make Mistakes
Life is about making mistakes and taking corrections. Tell me, who hasn't made any mistakes? The good news about mistakes is that there is room for reflection and correction.
The chances of not making mistake is 0.00% which means it is impossible not fail sometimes. I draw huge strength from making mistakes and meeting people who have made mistakes, because there is a different lesson in each mistake made. I remember one time I had to stay something and I Just made unreasonable mistakes with those words and everyone laughed. I thought to myself, "they are just words, why are they laughing". I felt bad and tortured myself a couple of days and I keep working on getting better. My experiences in mistakes teaches me that people will always laugh at you when you make the slightest mistake even your friends, yes they will. Don't be angry when they laugh, only learn from what has made them laugh.

WhipLash: THE Latest Political Prostitutes By Etcetra.
This Etcetera's Saturdays post is always interesting especially when he hits hard on his co-celebrities. Read to see what he had to say...
Some say Afro Candy is a prostitute. Some say she’s not or at least, not yet. A few others say she’s a porn star, which is not in the same league as prostitution. Porn stars are taxed, prostitutes are not. So Afrolicious baybay, you have to up your game to get into the league of prostitutes, if it is what you really desire. My suggestion would be; instruct your agent or booker to get you appearances in any of the political campaign videos, so you can put to use that floppy behind your mama gave you. And if you are lucky enough, you can get cameos and wiggle that thing around the aspirants themselves. You have to get your bum (sorry your hands) bloodied to earn the highly coveted “Political prostitute” tag. Now my Candilicious Afrolistic baybay, these are a few names of the latest political prostitutes in the country: Olamide, Banky W, Don Jazzy, Flavour, Duncan Mighty, D banj, Mercy Johnson, Ibinabo, Ini Edo, Mama Gee, Naeto C, Joseph Yobo, Daddy Showkey, Kanu Nwankwo, and Sammie Okposo.

Boko Haram attacks Chadian Village, kills Five
The insurgents Boko Haram have launched its first and deadly attack on the Nigerian neighbour Chad. The Islamist group attacked the Chadian village and a military camp early Friday morning killing five people.
Sources said, “They came on board three canoes,” a village resident of Ngouboua on the shores of Lake Chad.
Security sources who spoke said, about 30 militants attacked the village and killed at least four villagers and one Chadian soldier before the army was able to push them back.
Boko Haram militants based in northern Nigeria have staged a number of cross-border attacks in recent weeks in their campaign to carve out an Islamist emirate around the Lake Chad area which borders Nigeria, Chad, Cameroon and Niger.
Chad’s army, one of the best in the region, has joined a regional offensive against them and says it has killed hundreds of fighters in the past two weeks.
2015 Elections:Group has calls for Ambode's disqualification over alleged Mental Imbalance
A group named the Greater Lagos Alliance has called for the disqualification of the Lagos State governorship candidate of the All Progressives' Congress, APC, Akinwunmi Ambode in the 2015 governorship poll. The group, which claims to be non-partisan, hinged its call on the recent discovery that Ambode allegedly has a history of mental illness. hmm how true?
This recent discovery is a written statement signed by the group's president, Dr Lanre Adeoye.
See the Press Release from The Greater Lagos Alliance. Read below:
“We have been working behind the scenes for the enthronement of a new government that would take off from where Governor Fashola stops from. After assessing the two major candidates (Ambode and Jimi Agbaje of the People’s Democratic Party) and made our position known publicly on who to support based on their competencies and comparative advantages, we are sad to announce the withdrawal of our support for the candidate of the APC.”Adeoye, a successful American-based neuro-surgeon, hinged the group’s shocking decision on an alleged chanced happening on the condition of Ambode when he came to the US for routine checkup.
