NOTICE TO INEC CHAIRMAN



Dear INEC CHAIRMAN,
In respect to voters' card registration, many Nigerians have been looking for where to register including myself. Those that where given systems to register us do not want to work.

I got to one of the registration center at Ishaga 10am on 24th of last month (January) but the registrars where yet to resume at that time till I left some minutes past 11. People were waiting and some left in frustration.

In view of this, I hereby volunteer myself to partake in this exercise of registration. There are people who are willing to join me if you make systems available.

Please consider this so that no one will have excuse of not voting come 2019.

My name is Happiness and I am a concerned Nigerian.

Pls RBC till it gets to appropriate quarters

Making the most of opportunities



Prepare for every opportunity as it is your last.

Give it all your shots. It is better you try and fail than for you to say "it will not work".

You don't know which will work.

_In the morning, sow your seeds; at night, withhold not your hand from sowing for you do not know which will germinate _ (Emphasis)

*And sometimes, it takes ten years for you to get that one year that will change your life*

Good night 😊

2018 message

*_First Message in 2018_*
It's not enough to make decisions. The most important thing is getting the right information before making a decision.

_You cannot make a decision with inadequate information_

Have you ever been in a situation where you'd had to say "oh if I had waited a bit I would have had this and that done"? That was because you had insufficient information.

So be calm, watch out for the bumps, take a _chill pill_ and be adequately armed before deciding.

IS THIS LOVE I AM FEELING?

  
In 2004, a friend and I went on a visit to a brother who works at Lagos Airport Hotel, Ikeja. After giving us a big treat, we went looking around and finally, took us to the pool to swim. The only pool I had ever swum before this time was one river in my village (I was only 4 years in Lagos then). Happily, we pulled off and straight to the pool. My friend doesn’t know how to swim either so we remained at a spot in the pool. I saw little kids performing all kinds of acrobatics in the water so I decided to feel among. My friend joined me. I was ‘walking’ in the pool while my friend was following me behind. We got into a deeper part and then the trouble began. I could not turn back ‘cos the water was ‘heavier’ than me. Thank God my friend followed me (two amateurs). He had to be pushing me from behind so both of us could come out. We finally came out and I ran out of the water.
I have said this over time and will still say it until the whole world hears it. “Before you find a woman or before a man finds you, you must find yourself first.” Mind my use of words. I said “Woman” or “man” NOT “boy” or ”girl”. Relationships are not meant for boys and girls but for men and women. It is not until you turn 30 or 40 before you are referred to as a man or woman. Age is not a determinant factor of maturity. As a matter of fact, an 18 year old girl can be more matured than a ‘girl’ of 40 years old.
Relationship is not what you jump into like a swimming pool. As a matter of fact, if you don’t know the depth of the pool before jumping into it you might get drowned. With the little years I have spent on this earth, I have had some experiences in relationships and found out some mistakes potential men and women make.
Frankly speaking, any relationship that gives you sleepless nights, makes you nervous or gets you ‘crazy’ is an infatuation. You don’t see a man today and ‘fall’ in love the next day. They call it ‘Love-at-first-sight’. You don’t fall in love, you grow in love instead. Relationships are to build you not to mar you. Any relationship that is not adding to you is definitely subtracting from you. If your relationship is in the secret then you are heading for the deeper part of the pool that might get you drowned. From my story above, put me in place of the one in relationship, the pool as the relationship and my friend as the counselor. My counselor was with me all through the period of the relationship (though an amateur). When things were getting out of hands he had to pull me out. If I had gotten a professional swimmer (relationship expert/guardian) to coach me from the beginning of my entry into the pool (relationship) he would have advised me on what to do so I don’t get drowned.
My friend, before God gave Adam a woman, He gave him a work. If you are yet to discover yourself then you don’t need a man/woman. It is your destination that determines who you want to journey with. You can’t travel direction X with someone that is going towards direction Y. That will be a disaster.
Don’t marry beauty/riches. Marry vision and character. Every woman is beautiful. She only needs the proper grooming to bring out the queen in her. Beauty will fade, riches will finish, only character will remain.

Watch out for more!

NOBODY KNOWS!

When people see me, they wouldn't know I have drank water from a stream using cocoa and cocoyam leaf. Have you done that before? I bet you haven't. When some see me reading they wouldn't know my primary school foundation was a public L-shaped village school, where the only thing we do from 9am to 1pm was to peel 'egusi' for 'teacher' and most time sell 'pufpuf' from primary 1A to primary 6D in the L-shaped primary school and at the end of the day I write a very big O on my slate with green colored chalk and the teacher will mark it with red colored chalk, signing 'very good' and every Friday we go to the school garden to clear the farm. We would rub charcoal on our faces to scare the 'gbomo gbomo' on the bush part because we hear a lot of kidnapped children. We even heard 'Old Soldier', the most wicked teacher we had then who do take us to the garden, was kidnapped one day but he begged the kidnappers to release him that he would bring 20 students for them. Pupils with rumour shaaaa. Most of the times we would go to 'teacher's house' at the camp to work for them and they would give us 'ice cream' and cold water. The only book I read then was 'Macmillan Primary English book 6'. We called it 'reader' and it was mostly used in playing picture games. You wouldn't understand what I'm saying if you've not done it before. I remember the day we were to write common entrance exam in that village school; my mom cooked the best of food as if I was going for a function. She packaged it well in a warmer (though we were not that rich but she did her best). When I got to school that morning it was as if we were doing food competition. Different kinds of food all because we were sitting for common entrance. My white shirt and blue trouser was well washed and ironed with a charcoal iron by my elder sister. That was the first time I wore 'shoe' in my life. The shoe was for my elder brother who has very long feet and my feet were short so i had to pad it with a lot of clothes to make them fit. The name of that school is Eramhe Primary School, Afokpella, Okpella, in Edo state. Try to find that out. Nobody knows I have trekked over 50km going to farm as at when i was 7yrs old. Wow... have you done that before? As at age 10 I already own a plot of land where I do my farming activities. (I was a bit lazy then though). Nobody knows I've gone three days without food, not for fasting but because no food. Nobody knows the history of education, nobody knows how I managed to pass exams, nobody knows how I stopped going to school for years because there was no school fee. I was termed "onigbese" meaning debtor in secondary school. NOBODY KNOWS but today the story has changed. Nobody knows that my first encounter with a computer was in 2006. That was the first time in my life I ever touched a mouse. Thanks to ACTIVE FINGERS GLOBAL NETWORK in collaboration with PURE COMPUTER INSTITUTE who gave me scholarship to study desktop publishing. I worked for it anyway. I came 1st in the scholarship exam. I am not planning to live a small life. So when you see me living BIG tomorrow don't get jealous. Just know that I have been through a lot of hard times. If you want to know me get close and ask questions. Don't judge from afar.
