Lets CLEAN up Nigeria

Just this morning on my way to the office, I quietly listened to the passengers in the public vehicle I boarded as they blasted Nigerians on their dirty habits. At a time I was beginning to wonder if they aint Nigerians themselves. One man was particularly venomous! 'Its all these mallams that litter everywhere with the dirts they pack on the streets'. Another was busy explaining how some years back, Mobile Police men used to arrest people who defecated by the way side. According to him, its a free for all affair presently. Infact, the bus became so noisy, I had to come down and take another! (Its just bcos my automated, GPS enabled, remote controlled, Hydrogen Powered, vehicle is still in production).

But seriously, come to think of it, I really hope a time will come when we will learn to think CLEAN. Quite a number of things we do here, especially on the streets of Lagos are great offences in Ghana, imagine that. A number of times I asked drivers in public buses for their waste bins so I can throw away used recharge cards or tissue papers, the answer is always the same: 'Throw am outside jo, who u de form oyibo for?' It annoys me greatly when I see how travelers throw things outside vehicle windows without a second thought and years later, their children will complain of a dirty Onitsha, Lagos, Warri or Nigeria generally. I've witnessed how a banana peel thrown carelessly out of a bus window led to a fatal accident on the expressway! If you've ever seen such a thing, you'll understand what I'm saying.

I think its high time we stopped our public (and maybe private) dirty habits. As we look forward to a cleaner corrupt free society, let's begin with a cleaner 'we' environmentally, afterall they say 'Cleanliness is next to Godliness'. I look forward to seeing a cleaner ME! How about you?

I'm so so happy!

God! I'm so so so so happy this morning! Its with a heart of joy and peace that I blog this morning. I tell you, the truth is that, it feels really good to know u're in charge! Waking up each morning to the fact that u're in CONTROL of your world. Knowing that your future is not in the hand of 'WITCHES' or 'DEMONS' or 'DEVILS' or whatever. It feels so so good to know the one who knows tomorrow and to HIM be all Glory and Praise for ever more. I love you lord. 

To ma people, remember to 'Work on being and not on Having'. I love you all

Thank God its Monday?

06:11AM GMT+1 WAT:

Waoh! Its Monday again and I'm already at the office (No Time). I kind of dislike Mondays cos we usually have meetings (I dislike meetings cos its made up of too much talking). Well I guess I have to make do with it. My weekend was the bomb! Though I had a little dissapointment from my body. My health was straying off but I corrected 'him'!

This week promises a lot of work of me but I'm ready for it! Afterall, a holiday is just around the corner, so why not work my bones out and take a break outside Lagos. Yes, that's exactly what I plan to do. My friends on Facebook will see so little of me this week. Hope they 4give me sha.

As 4 my thought for the week? its simple and short: 'A time to keep silence, and a time to speak'

Amebo Facebook!!!

No doubt, I love FB but recently, I've come to realize that this so popular social utility that suddenly swept us off hi5, myspace, etc. is nothing but 'Amebo' (a gossip)! You know wat? The other day, I was busy writing a weblet for a client wen ma 'communica-toy' suddenly buzzed. I pick it up and guess wat was on the screen? "Bee, I thought u had a girl in school, and a very serious one at that, how come your FB status says single?" Uptill date, I haven't been able to answer that Q and each time it crosses ma mind, hmmmm, I just wonder.....

Yeah, I did had a friend and I still do but.........hmmm! Isn't single a correct description of me? Somebody please help me out! I await answers...

I wonder!

But come to think of it, Y would I put a blog up with no content? I guess i've been too busy coding and 4got to add content to my blog. That's 2 bad right? I'll change from henceforth!

I cast out every spirit that makes me lazy to post! I bind, I photocopy, Laminate, Insulate (speaking in tongues..... aaaaaaaaah)!

lol...
