Obama Won't Visit Nigeria. The Why, And What We Think!

American Deputy National Security Advisor, Ben Rhodes, made clarifications at a briefing on Tuesday 25^th June, 2013.

According to the US official, the ongoing insecurity seems to be responsible for the exclusion of Nigeria in Obama’s second visit to the continent.

President Obama will be visiting Senegal for West Africa, Tanzania for East Africa and South Africa.

Trade and Investment, democratic institution-building, young people, and economic growth will be the focus of his visit.

How be it, Nigeria has a lot of work to do, with the security issues and economic growth. When this is settled, or progressively dealt with, she would naturally be the first choice of visit.

You Too Can Make The A-List!

You too can make the world's A-list Billionaires, it takes, in my opinion: Prayers, Hardwork and Consistency! (God hates an inconsistent person-blowing neither hot nor cold).

Ladies did you notice that women were represented in this list? So there's really no excuse for us not to make this list!

So set a time, maybe next year, 5 years from now or 10 years from now, its your choice but make up your mind to make this A-List.

Get Inspired!

Dilapidated Oke-Afa Bridge In Ejigbo L.C.D.A of Lagos State

The people living in Oke-Afa and environs have to cross this very old bridge (the picture above) before going home or going out and about their source of livelihood. The Sad news is that the bad shape of this bridge is totally life threatening!

Now don't blame the bridge!!! It's over 2 decades old with little or no maintenance!!! 

It's no news that the traffic experienced along this road during the evening part of the day is totally frustrating, resulting in many commuters trekking home. So imagine trekking on a railess bridge!!!

That is the exact plight of the people using this bridge. The people using this bridge had on several occasions cried out to the government, and i dare say i'm sure that the Governor, the LCDA Chairman and other high government official have seen this bridge's dilapidated state!!!

This is another call to the State level of Lagos State, The LCDA Chairman and his people, the Lagos State Safety Commission and every other government parastatal involved with rehabilitating dilapitated infrastructures in Lagos State.

See other pictures of the bridge

'I'm still only 26 and it's great to receive an offer from a club (Galatasaray) playing Champions League football and doing well in the competition.'

Talks have reached an advanced level between Chelsea and Galatasaray. Chelsea won't make the move difficult and regarding my salary there won't be a problem. All that is left is for the clubs to reach an agreement.'
