Can this happen in Nigeria?

The fear of God or natural inclination to do good is not mainly attributable to a particular religion. It can be seen as the natural or inherent composition of man to be our neighbours' keeper.

In medieval time actions of every man were based on conscience. Until various religions were introduced with each one trying or pretending to outdo the other on ground of piety .

In Nigeria, a country so berated for corrupt leaders and religious men, one wonders if the fear of God was ever felt here. I remember my father, when I was young, advising me not to play with some people because they were known to have stolen something from somebody. While it's true that we still have good people in Nigeria, the bad ones seem to overwhelmed the good ones.

Over times we find out that the need to amass un needed wealth or, is it greed of man among these 'religionist' had sort of reduced man to conscienceless being thereby casting aspersions on the ability of man to be able to do what is good at all time.

However, among the lots of men who pretend piety or religion zealous, there are some humble ones who though, they may not be rich, still have the heart of an angel. These kind of people are not particularly religionist.

For example Shawn Wyckoff, found a wallet, as small as that, he took all out to find the owner.

You may wonder the importance attached to a mere wallet! Wait a minute, the wallet was misplaced 35 years ago by Gean Brown Jr. while installing pipes in the attic of a Kansas home around 1976-77, he thought it was gone forever.

But more than 35 years later, Brown's wallet has been returned to him, KCTV5.com reports.

For evil to triumph, good men should do nothing.

If we have 30 percent people like Shawn Wyckoff the world will be a better place. You may then leave your doors open while you sleep.

He Was Pregnant With Life

Some people say life is unfair, others believe that life is enjoyable, yet others believe life is a combination of both. The truth is, life in its entirety is like a pregnancy, it goes through a period of gestation. And so many processes are involved. This takes time.

Mind you there is time for everybody, as conception and delivery of everyone may not be the same. The pains and struggle are not felt same way. What is sure is one day you will come to the labour room, where you give account of what you have in you. This is the dark hour where you contend with forces of what you want, how you have handled what was inside of you. For the period you were pregnant, what did you feed yourself with. Was it good food, waste or garbage? You contend with life and death.

Most of the time, no hope is foreseeable, though you are eager it passes immediately. Of course, like light overshadowing darkness, the cry of a baby is heard and a new beginning of happiness sets in.

Yet, sometimes, it is a still birth. Aborted dream. This is also a new beginning, a new start.

Whatever happens, don't give up, re-access and start all over. If it goes against you, hold your head high, give thanks to God and start all over. If it goes in your favour, like a new born baby, be more humble and give thanks to God. Whatever you have is the gift of God. If only you can harness your potentials and make good use of the strength and knowledge you have.

However life goes, give thanks to God and start all over if need be.

74-year-old fake Ghanaian lawyer jailed for five years

What remains? In Nigeria, we have fake policemen, fake doctor fake toothpaste, fake human beings, in fact, everything is fake. Fake drugs are killing both young and old people.

What is fake? Simply, something that is not genuine or authentic, counterfeit that produces contrary result from the original. The result are usually harmful to the victim.

In our country, most of these people that are involved in this evil act of imitation or faking have been smiling to the bank at the expense of innocent victims.

The Government, through security agencies have fought tooth and nail to put an end to the evil act, the fight seems endless, though. This is due to some security agents complicity.
At least the government have stood it ground in some areas. It has been paying off. We are trying to heave a sign of relieves in the case of fake drugs which prof. Dora Akuyili fought with passion to a stand still.
However, some foreigners in our land have now device another brand of Fake product. We now have fake Ghanian Lawyer in our soil doing business of fake legal practice. Surprisingly, a 74-year-old Ghanaian, Keinde Dodo, without honour has been operating fake chambers for over 15 years in Nigeria. Perhaps, appearing in court and announcing as a lawyer... "My lord, keinde Dodo for the accused..."

As they say, everyday for the thief one day for the owner. No wonder An Igbosere Magistrate's Court, Lagos on Thursday sentenced a Keinde Dodo, to five years imprisonment for pretending to be a lawyer and representing litigants in courts in Nigeria for 15 years.

How come nobody suspected him all this while?

In legal practice we have legal languages which the bar and the bench understand somewhat exclusively. We have call mates, age, and even university attended are easy way to identify who is who in legal practice. Those in private employment are known by their class mates. And nobody ask Dodo who he was?
It simply means that nobody asks question and nobody cares these days anymore, except to pursue money senselessly with vigour.
Thanks to the eagle eyes of the policemen who couldn't miss the identity of the fake 74 years old lawyer with the genuine ones in our society.
Nigeria Bar Association (NBA) has a lot of work to do.

Nuhu Mohammed Marafa, Kaduna Terrorist Suspect With Ties To VP Sambo And His Son, Set Free




Alhaji Malam Nuhu Muhammad Marafa,, the suspected terrorist and associate of Vice President Namadi Sambo, who was arrested by soldiers on allegations of gun-running and likely links to the Boko Haram sect, has finally regained freedom and is now free in Kaduna.

Mohammed was last week granted bail by a Kaduna Magistrate Court on very lenient conditions, including having a serving Permanent Secretary stand as a surety.  He was immediately let go as soon as the conditions were met.

SaharaReporters had in January investigated and found out that the suspect was indeed a member of the Peoples Democratic Party in the Chikun local government of Kaduna State, where he managed a campaign organization for Namadi Sambo when the current VP ran for the governorship election, which he won.  The organization was known as Namadi Ambassadors".

One of the arresting soldiers who monitored the situation bemoaned the latest developments, saying the trial was politicized, and that it openly compromised national security.

"Sperm Alert: What to Know When She Wants to Have a Baby!"

"The fact is that many men don't think a lot about their sperm until the baby-making tsunami takes over their lives. And even then, your sperm may not be on the top of your list of baby-making concerns. The first thing that may come to mind when the first rumbles of baby lust hits your radar might be worries about money, sleep, and your sex life.

The first tremors that baby making may be in your future, is that dinner conversation starts to turn into who is pregnant or having another baby in your social circles. This can lead to strolls in shopping malls, where your woman makes a sudden stops in front of baby toy and clothing stores. You may notice that she lingers there, making happy sounds about this cute thing or that darling something or other. Notice, that she presses you for happy sounds as well.

You may find babies are being put into your arms at every family function with everyone making chirping sounds about what a good father you would make. Books with baby-making tips and parenting advice may have found its way into your bathroom reading basket. You may have even found "The Top 100 Baby Names" in your email inbox. One thing is for sure, when your lady is ready to make a baby — you will know it.

Assuming you are on board with her baby-making desires, be ready to join her in some pre-conception check-ups! In case you didn't get the memo, men contribute half of the baby-making goods and are also equally responsible when conception does not occur easily. This simple fact is something that many men have happily ignored for centuries, putting the conception burden squarely on the shoulders of the woman.

When entering the baby making arena, it is important to know that it may take up to one year for conception to occur. And approximately 7 million couples will experience conception issues.

But before the female goes through a battery of tests (which is usually the first thing that will happen), it's the manly thing to do to check your sperm count to see if it's normal or low.

It's estimated that only 20 percent of you (men) in couples struggling to conceive have this test early on or at all. What's more, almost half of all infertility problems are directly attributed to the male, and most of them are mainly due to low sperm count. So, before you start your baby-making engines, you want to be in the best possible shape to conceive.

Healthy Sperm Tips:

1. How are the boys? The easiest way for men to get a handle on what is happening with their sperm is to do a quick check in! How is the count? Is it normal? A normal sperm count is above 20 million sperm per milliliter. You can find out if your sperm is in normal range in the privacy of your own home with a brand new over the counter test, called SpermCheck Fertility. It's the only FDA-approved at-home screening test for men to determine normal or low sperm count. SpermCheck Fertility costs substantially less than a visit to the doctor. It's an affordable and accurate first step in male fertility testing and can help inform you as to whether or not more comprehensive clinical fertility evaluation is needed.

2. Feed Your Fertility: Eat all the things you know you should but probably don't, including fruits, vegetables and low-fat protein. Some studies have suggested that some men with low sperm count may also have a zinc deficiency. Boost your zinc and maybe your fertility by eating more meat, wholegrain cereals, seafood, and eggs. Selenium, which is found in Brazil nuts, meat, seafood, mushrooms and cereals, has also been found to make sperm very happy.

3. The Drink That Refreshes: Sorry but you'll have to cap your caffeine and alcohol drinks to one cuppa joe (or latte or cappuccino) a day and maybe the occasional glass of wine. Heavy drinking is a fertility wrecker for both women and men.

4. Get Moving: First ditch the spandex, then go onto a regular, moderate workout plan. Exercise is the gift of the fertility gods. They help keep your hormones happy, your weight under control and bring down your stress levels. Heavy exercise that involves a lot of heat or compression of your testicles (like bike riding) is not good for your sperm. And stay out of the sauna or hot water soaks after you work out. Sperm hate the heat, keep your testicles cool!

5. Smoke Signals: Tobacco, even marijuana is no friend of fertility. Smoking can increase susceptibility to sexually transmitted diseases in both men and women, and it is known to reduce your sperm count. It's just plain bad.

6. Take a Good Look Around: Your work environment may be a contributing factor to your fertility. According to the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health, ongoing exposure to certain things like pesticides, chemical fertilizers, lead, nickel, mercury, chromium, ethylene glycol ethers, petrochemicals, benzene, perchloroethylene, and radiation can wreak havoc with your sperm count, and quality.

Becoming a daddy may be one of the most exciting things to ever happen to you. Enjoy the pre-show performances. Studies show that hot sex can boost conception! It's show time! Sex is on the front burner, and think of all the fabulous, romantic, and sexy opportunities that await you. Consider going on a "Baby Moon", a vacation all about sex, love, and conception. If all goes well, you won't be able to get away alone together for a while."

Patient 'Recorded' Sex Session To Nail A Doctor

From the days of old to this moment, sex has ruined great men, men and women of rather impeccable characters only to be exposed as sex perverts.
Is it that one person[wife or husband] is not enough for each other?

Wise professionals and legislators saw the dangers in allowing professionals have inappropriate relationship with clients while carry on their duties, they tagged such sex as misconduct which requires disciplinary action. That is why in Manchester recently,
"A married family doctor was secretly recorded by a female patient as they engaged in a sex session at his surgery, a disciplinary panel heard yesterday.

Dr Simon Robinson is accused of misconduct over a 16-month affair with the patient that ended when she began to feel 'used'.

The General Medical Council heard yesterday that their encounters always stopped short of full sexual intercourse and Robinson allegedly said he did not want to go further than oral sex as it would be 'crossing the line' for a married man."

Will It Happen In Nigeria! British Energy Minister Resigns over Speeding Charges.

Now I wonder why it's always right in Whiteman world!

Most public office holders in western world often thread the part of honour and resign whenever indicted or accused of any crime or misbehaviour. Even at the slightest indication of inappropriate behaviour in public duty, he goes away quietly in shame never to be heard again.
When I hear such brave act coming from whiteman's world, I often wonder in contrast, the kind of stuff Nigeria leaders and public office holders are made of. Certainly, it's not only Nigeria but all Africa leaders. It appears, their consciences are gavanized more to make public appearances and blame it on devil for their itching fingers or for drunk driving. The least of government vehicle in Nigeria will never obey traffic light!

What is actually wrong with a black man? Is it the pigmentation of the skin? Or the continent called Africa? Why won't a corrupt Nigeria office holder thread the part of honour and quietly resign from public responsibility like
"British Energy Secretary, Chris Huhne {who} resigned... after prosecutors announced he would be charged over allegations that he dodged a speeding penalty"

For details on British Energy Secretary, Chris Huhne click link bellow:

However, I don't believe all Nigerians are as dark as every leader who was possessed with satanic demons to steal and destroy public treasury given to him on trust.
Even those who flout the law with impunity will one day realise that the world has changed, and the devil has stopped taking blames for them.

Chris Huhne is just one case example. If our leaders can not learn from this and prove whatever innocence from the confines of their bedrooms when indicted, the good Nigerians will soon find a way to resign them. Of course, we are heading to that place where accountability and responsibility matter.

A word is enough for the wise.
