CHOICES
That’s something we all have and make consciously or unconsciously. Not making a choice in itself is a choice. You outlook to life and what you make of life are products of your choices. Two things happen to us in life, accidents (events we can do nothing about) and incidents (events we plan for).you can govern the accident that befall you but you can choose how you'll handle them. Even the worst of situations can be handled rightly it’s all a matter of choice. I know a great guy, he had an auto crash about 8years ago, He lost his legs and was confined to a wheelchair, it seemed all was lost but he choose to still be a force to reckon with and today. He is a loud voice for the physically changed. That’s just one of many; the list is endless of those who rose from the worst of accidents, its all about the choice they made.

Each day you are faced with the challenge of making the right choice, it may not be convenient but it will payoff eventually.
Father Fancis of Asisi said "he who is not proud of his color is not fit to live."I dear to add,he who is not proud of his country too is not fit to live.WHY? because they both have same offence,they both dispise their origin.Nigerians over the years have lost their identity, but i think and can see that the time of our re-birth has come,the re-birth of true Nigerians.We the youths of today have a task at hand,we must produce a better Nigeria for our children ,one they can be proud of,we must do better than our fathers.
my sincere prayer is this
O GOD OF CREATION DIRECT OUR NOBLE CAUSE
GUIDE OUR LEADERS RIGHT
HELP OUR YOUTHS, THE TRUTH TO KNOW.
If you indeed believe in the future of this country ,please do join me in this prayer daily by singing the 2nd stanza of our national anthem.
GDO BLESS NIGERIA!!!

A NEW NIGERIA
Nigeria clocked 46yrs on sunday,but something was unique about this years's independence day, I noticed that Nigeria is closer to her dream.I noticed that Nigerians are far more patrotic than ever before, we are begining to believe in ourselves and our country. I meet daily more Nigerian youths, male and female alike who believe in the dream of a new Nigeria and are willing and ready to work towards achieving it.I know a friend who took it upon himself to distribute the Nigerian flag to all around him with a copy of the nation's anthem in a bid to re-orientating them to love Nigeria. He is now taking the campaign to primary schools around his environment. There are many other such people doing other things to promote the image of this country to her citizens, but like a mentor of mine (Deolu Akinyemi) said, "The multitude did not win our independence, the multitude will not win our re-emergence. The critical question is not if Nigeria will regain greatness or not, the critical question is what role will you play?"
GOD BLESS NIGERIA!
