 Chimamanda Adichie, to Mr. Peter Obi, on his 61st birthday.



Happy Birthday to Peter Obi, my dearest Big Bro:

 

I will never forget your kindness to my beloved parents. Thank you for the respect you showed them, for your many visits to Abba, where you gave to Daddy and Mummy the most precious gifts: your time and your attention.

 

Thank you for walking this still-unbearable journey of grief with my siblings and me.

 

I remember how you regaled Daddy and Mummy with your stories until we started joking about your obsession with the “GDP of Malaysia.” But your obsession spoke of hope: your hope for Nigeria, your belief in what Nigeria could be. A belief that has always been practical, grounded in numbers and in reality.

 

I remember when you came to support me as I was being honored by the United Nations Foundation in New York, and I teased you about the inexpensive hotel you were staying in, and you shrugged and said, “it’s just a place to sleep, why do I need to be in an expensive place?”


And then only days later, you once again exhibited your incredible generosity to the causes you believe in, and it reminded me of all the hospitals and schools and churches you have supported over the years, and often without fanfare. You have always been clear about what your priorities are, what matters to you, what you believe should matter, and that is deeply admirable.

 

I have always admired your humane pragmatism, how you are willing to talk to almost anyone if it will bring about a good outcome.

And how you believe in certain ideals without being an ideologue.

And how you see people as people, knowing that human value is not measured in material terms.

And how you are able to laugh at yourself, and laugh when I tease you about your ‘one shoe and one shirt.’

And how you have always been consistent in the core of who you are. 

 

Thank you for your compassion and your circumspection. For your honesty and your humour. For your willingness to acknowledge flaws, yours and others’, knowing that nobody is perfect. For your fuss-free kindness and your humility that is never performative.

 

I am inspired by your intellectual curiosity, your eagerness to learn, your genuine love of education (which is why you sought out, and honored, Daddy all those years ago when you learned that he was Nigeria’s first professor of statistics.)

 

Sometimes it is the simplest of language that captures the most complex of things, and so I will end with simplicity: You are a good man. You are loved. You are appreciated.

 

May your eyes continue to light up when you talk about the lovely confident Margaret (Thank God she agreed for you!) and your lovely children, A and E. 

 

May joy follow you and yours always.

 

Mummy called you her ‘first son,’ my siblings and I call you our 'big bro,' and I cannot wait to call you ‘My President.’ 

 

I cannot wait for February 25, 2023, when I, with personal pride in you and with hope for what Nigeria can become, will cast my vote for you and your running mate, Senator Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed. 

 

Chukwu dube gi. God Keep you. 

 

With love, Chimamanda.

 DNA - IDE SHALL REPRESENT US BETTER .



The inability of a political party to present a personality vastly supported by the general public is the beginning of their failure in the general poll.


Meanwhile, the widely accepted Candidate for the Dunukofia/Njikoka/Anaocha (DNA) Federal House Representative in the 2023 general election, Hon. Peter Ibida has after series of assessments of the various development challenges confronting the lives and businesses of Ndi DNA come up with a pragmatic roadmap for a total transformation.


This aligns with the essence of an effective representation which encompasses provisions of social amenities and a peaceful atmosphere for the lives and industrial growth in the society.


Sir Ibida has designed a sustainable development plan that would offer employment opportunities to the youth and the growing workforce in DNA.


With Dr. Ibida's agenda, DNA would have the true taste of quality representation and all inclusiveness .


Effective representations knowing your people, knowing what they need and doing it for them. 


The time to get it right is now!!

Heart Attacks- - -

Drinking Warm

Water: 


This is a very good article. Not only about the warm water after your meal,

but about Heart Attack's . The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their

meals, not cold water, maybe it is time we adopt

their drinking habit while

eating. For those who like to drink cold water, this

article is applicable to

you. It is very Harmful to have Cold Drink/Water during a meal. Because,

the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you

have just consumed. It will

slow down the digestion. Once this 'sludge'

reacts with the acid, it will break down and be

absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats

and lead to cancer . It is best to drink hot soup

or warm water after a meal. 


French fries and Burgers

are the biggest enemy of heart health. A coke after that gives more power to

this demon. Avoid them for

your Heart's & Health. 


Drink one glass of warm water just when you are about to go to bed to avoid clotting of the blood at night to avoid heart attacks or strokes. 


A cardiologist says if everyone who reads this

message sends it to 10 people, you can be sure that we'll save at least

DIGEST WITH THE REGENT NRI KINGDOM

 DIGEST WITH THE REGENT NRI KINGDOM




His Majesty

Prince Ikenna O. Onyesoh

[Idebutaku Na Nri],

The Traditional Regent Of Ancient Nri kingdom,

The citadel of Igbo Culture and Tradition has during an interface with the press this afternoon elucidated the very need for every individual to be consistent in his or her own chosen field of human endeavor.


His Majesty who made this known today in a chart with the media at the people's royal palace, stated emphatically that 

It is highly unlikely for any individual to achieve greater feats in life taking CONSISTENCY out of the horoscope and painstaking consideration.


Going further he noted that greater achievements and most legacy projects are only made possible through a consolidated

consistent smart decision making.


He made it clear that one thing which is visibly common with unsuccessful people in life is lack of CONSISTENT developmental master plan; and FOCUSED initiative.


In a question and answer session with the press on the subject matter under review,

His Majesty posed that being consistent is to be steadily dedicated to carrying on with the activities of one's daily endeavor with clear visions to achieve successes at the long run..


He stated that to be consistent is a commitment one would have to make for one's self and others, noting that the level of one's CONSISTENCY is a determining factor to one's VALUES and STANDARDS.


On the issue of Why People Struggle with Consistency,

His Majesty pointed out that many other several reasons why most young entrepreneurs and business owners struggle with consistency could be outlined as follows:

•Lack of patience,

•Lack of clearity on mission and vision,

•Holding unto an undetailed action plan.

•Overly desire for instant gratification.

•Lack of clarity in  focus and thoughts.


He illustrated that even the renowned leadership expert John C. Maxwell agreed to the fact that

“Small disciplines repeated with consistency every day lead to great achievements gained slowly over time.”


On what young people must do to remain Consistent in the field of their own chosen, His Majesty Has this to say..


Herein outlined under are a few factors young business builders must consider to remain relevantly  consistent and successful in the field of their own chosen.

•First is to develop a well thought out and actionable plan.

•Second is clearly state your goals to tarlly around your achieveble master plan.

•Third is to allocate time to your action plan and on every activity that will mature your vision to reality.

•Take Notice to your triggers and the things that motivates you.

•Review your progress and ask for feedback regularly.

•Celebrate your successes and victories when  achieved, it helps you maintain momentum and stay motivated.


In his final advise to the youths.


In his final advise,

His Majesty The Regent maintained that Consistency is Action, just like Successes and Victories are product of action.

Therefore ACTION becomes an important catalyst to one's business success.

He appreciated the media crew for being consistent and staying through to the values of the profession...

JUST IN: APGA BoT Member, Uju Okeke, Chief Lawrence Okafor, Others Dump Party, Join PDP



Throws Weight Behind Senator Ekwunife


A heavy political tsunami has hit the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in Anambra state as prominent BoT member, Hon Dr. Chief Mrs. Uju Okeke former Councillor of Nri ward I, Chief Hon. Lawrence Okafor, former Councillor of Agulu ward I, Hon. Okey Agunwa have formally collapsed structures and defected to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from APGA.


The defection is a confirmation that the majority of the stakeholders particularly from Anambra Central Senatorial District have adopted Senator Ekwunife as their consensus candidate for the senate seat.


Speaking on Thursday, June 23, 2022, at Anaocha LGA, during the grand reception to welcome the decampees, the federal lawmaker hailed the former Commissioner of Education, Dr. Uju Okeke, Hon. Lawrence Okafor, Hon. Okey Agunwa and thousands of their supporters for the decision to join PDP, noting that the party belongs to the people. She noted that a vote for PDP is a vote to consolidate on her responsive representation.


Whilst highlighting her plethora of ongoing projects which include Cosmic Ray Laboratory in Unizik, Biotechnology Lab situated in Abagana, road infrastructure across the communities, Ekwunife stated that she has no comparison amongst other candidates of various political parties jostling to represent the zone.


The grassroots friendly lawmaker further eulogized the former BoT member of APGA and stated that her political and administrative experience would be advantageous to the party in the state.


"On behalf of the PDP family I want to use this gracious moment to welcome our dear sister into the big family", Ekwunife noted.


On her reason for joining the PDP, Dr. Okafor narrated that it was borne out of her special love and admiration for Ekwunife. She urged all women and stakeholders irrespective of party to queue behind the quintessential lawmaker in her bid for continued excellent representation. "After consulting with my family and supporters I have decided to join an exceptional woman who is regarded as the most accessible, hardworking and Infrastructural driven lawmaker in her quest to put the zone on the map of development,"


The former APGA Chieftain assured that she would work tirelessly with her supporters to return Ekwunife to the National Assembly.


Also speaking, Hon. Sir Lawrence Okafor who collapsed his structure for PDP assured of his full support in the upcoming general elections. He noted that Ekwunife's quality representation was a huge factor in his decision to join the PDP.


Earlier, the Chairman of Senator Uche Ekwunife Campaign Organization thanked the PDP stakeholders for gracing the occasion. He said that amongst the rare qualities God blessed Ekwunife with, is that of touching lives positively.


Other stakeholders who spoke eulogized Ekwunife as the best lawmaker in Nigeria. They acknowledged that she stands out in delivering the dividends of democracy to the doorsteps of constituents.


Meanwhile, the highlight of the occasion was the presentation of the PDP membership card to Hon. Dr. Okeke, Hon. Sir Okafor, Hon. Agunwa and others by the party's Nri ward I chairman, Mr. Onyeka Nwaoguji.

Nyesom Wike: I’ve no plan to leave PDP

 Nyesom Wike: I’ve no plan to leave PDP



After speculations that Wike would be Atiku Abubakar's choice running mate, it was announced yesterday that Ifeanyi Okowa was the approved choice.


Rivers Governor Nyesom Wike has urged members of the public to ignore a viral video suggesting that he has a plan to leave the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).


The Governor, who described the video as manipulated, said it was part of an interview he granted in June 2021 when his Ebonyi counterpart, Dave Umahi, defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC).


Wike, in a statement by his Special Assistant, Media, Kelvin Ebiri, said the excerpt of the interview was deliberately manipulated and doctored by unscrupulous persons with evil agenda.


The statement said: “Our attention has been drawn to a manipulated video circulating on social media, purporting that the Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike intends to defect from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).


“It will be recalled that in June 2021, Governor Wike was interviewed on Arise Television, following the defection of Ebonyi State governor, Dave Umahi from the PDP to the All Progressives Congress, APC.


“During the interview, Governor Wike while reacting to reason given by Ebonyi State governor for his defection, dismissed it as untenable.


“The excerpt of the interview in circulation has been deliberately manipulated by some desperate and unscrupulous persons with obnoxious agenda. The intent of the video being circulated is to mislead the unsuspecting public, particularly members of the PDP. We, hereby urge the public to disregard the manipulated video.


“Governor Wike has repeatedly maintained that he will never under any circumstances defect from the PDP, which has offered him the platform to excel in his political career.


“We urge the public to ignore the distorted video. Those behind it are desperately wicked and intend to mislead the public. Governor Wike remains a faithful, committed member of the PDP and will never leave it for cancerous APC.”


After speculations that Wike would be Atiku Abubakar's choice running mate, it was announced yesterday that Ifeanyi Okowa was the approved choice.
