And I sent him this. This is the same reason most of our government officials loot the treasury. Because the forfeiture laws are child's play. If a pirate is caught, he gets away with a fine of 40k. If I steal N1b from government coffers, if I hold on to that for 4 years, and you ask me to refund it, I can give government N2.5b sef. The penalty should be a deterrent. Not an option. It should hurt. Like if men who rape minors get castrated and those who rape anyone... death by hanging. So let the pirates pay an equivalent of $250,000 and a 5 year jail term. Don't forget, those people on the street are not the pirates. The pirates are in a hotel. Waiting for the proceeds. But if you start picking the guys on the street up... change will come.</span></h1>

The calories are the devil. Count it and know not to go over board. If you consume 1000 calories at a seating, during meals (×3), then make sure you are ready to to burn at least 1500kal daily and if you can do 3000kal daily (morning and night) you will be fit. If you don't, the calories you fail to count will count against you. Every Dodo that you eat is like a sponge. It just helps you convey the oil. Same thing with kpomo. Don't even mention isi ewu... banga soup... and Owo! The calories you take can only be reduced with dieting, abstaining and exercise. Oh! Yes, drugs can help too. But if you lose 10kg without change of lifestyle, that weight returns with a vengeance. I have been dancing between 95kg and 100kg. But since I have not exercised as I used to... I got on the scale today and bam!!!!! 101.7.... when I no be radio station!</span></h1>

Instead of spending all that money to fight desertification, why not create tourism value out of the hand that nature deals us? Palmnuts, we could not process to become world player in that sector. Rubber nko? We could not maximize the glaring values it had. Swimming? Michael Phelps has gold medals that are more than Nigeria can ever win in 30 years, but there are no Olympic stadiums in the Niger Delta, to tap into the swimming DNA that the riverine people are born with. Ports? Akwa IBOM has a natural depth that requires very little port investment to accommodate even bigger ships that Lagos Ports can not handle. But No! Only Lagos Port must be functional. Groundnuts! Did the land that yielded the pyramids disappear? Of course not. Oil showed up. Did cocoa stop growing? No. Why pursue Cocoa when there was oil money?

What kind of people are shaping our future?</span></h1>

UNLESS YOUR PAST IS ALL THAT MATTERS. The person who wants to show you the way may ASK to know where you are coming from, so that he can understand how much of the past is driving your desire for the future.<a name='more'></a> Sometimes it's to know what experience has prepared you for the future you crave. If you say you want to take a PHD course, I would want to know what your first and second degrees were. To know your background and how that inform the PHD you want to study. HOWEVER... if the person is more interested in your past than in your future.. FLEE. There are some friends who prefer to say "her father was my Dad's Driver in the 90s" and forget to add she is the branch manager for Heritage Bank, on Allen. They will say, is that not Kemi's Ex-husband, they will not say he married a better wife. Even you, wetin sef, what are you doing with people who only can relate with you when the discussion is about "when we were in secondary school"? Don't you know the day they are somewhere and someone is talking supply of building materials worth N500m, you will not cross their minds. But if someone says there is this dance we used to dance in the 80s... "Arghhhhhh! That's Ebuka's best Dance. Saw him last week he still got the moves". No mention of how you graduated with first class in Computer Engineering. They are everywhere. I remember one time when GEJ told me to breakdown the dynamics of defections by state governors to some party Chieftains. One said I thought he was a Comedian. The future is your life. Your past is history that only needs to be referenced when it is needed to inform some decisions. Not for landmarking your future. SO WHEN YOU SEE THOSE HISTORIAN FRIENDS... AVOID THEM LIKE A PLAGUE.</span></h1>

Hold that thought as I mention a few things that you may not agree with. Many believe "once you can think it you can do it". Hey, think from now till tomorrow Dez no way somethings will happen. If you weigh over 100kg, there is no way you will beat Usain Bolt in a race. <a name='more'></a>Anyway, let me go to my point. I have heard, severally, when it's said that opposites attract. True. But they must be compatible. In the video here you see a guy who attempts to carry a lady. You see, your capacity must be weighed in, when trying to hook up with someone you like. Some ladies have peculiar issues they are dealing with and BECAUSE OF THOSE ISSUES, such ladies have the kind of guy they are looking forward to dating. These issues range from the skin of a guy to his intelligence and everything in between. Recently, because of certain posts on Instagram, many have been drawn to me to counsel them in relationships matters. Let me give you one example. Guy loves this girl to bits. Girl doesn't because she believes he can not bear her responsibilities. She wants a guy that can take the financial burden she bears off her. And for a fact, she wasn't going to add a broke dude to the load of taking care of 2 younger siblings, aged Mum, a mortgage repayment, single mum status and dreams that need finances to activate. She said it's not that he is not a guy any Lady would say NO to, but that she is not any Lady. She is a lady with needs. Major needs. And if the guy CAN NOT CARRY HER LOAD, she will end up crushing him with the weight. That is why I posted this video. Don't bite more than you can chew is applicable here. Just as hang your coat where your hand fit reach. She is high maintenance but you MUST date her. So that what? So you can bring her standards down? She has 3 cars. You don't. But you Must date her. So she now needs to jump cabs? One guy actually told me, he can't manage anymore because he is struggling to make 100k monthly and the babe he likes just got promoted to earning 750k monthly in a bank. As I tried to tell him that he should now step up his game and earn more, he looked at me and asked "By doing what?"</span></h1>
<div>
<span style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><h1 style="background-color: white; border: 0px; font-family: proxima-nova, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">You also could meet a lady who is not your load to carry. Because it's not about her, it's about you. She is 35. Everyone is breathing down her neck to go get married. Her younger sisters are married and have children. So she puts that on the table straight from the onset. You are not ready for marriage. Not ready for kids. Not ready to settle down. School fees and all other costs that come with starting a family. Just Johnnie Walker. Don't pass Go sef. Because, that excuse will not work after you say I do. This issue is what is tearing a couple apart now. The guy is 34 and the lady is 37. She wants to marry and start having kids. She even said let's do registry and traditional. Her guy says in 2yrs. Why him no go talk in 2 years? He would 36. She will be 39. And the biological clock will begin to tick very loud. He thinks she is desperate. She thinks he is afraid to commit. They both are suspecting each other. So back to the video. The load you choose to carry should be one you have capacity to carry. Then there is one interesting case. The guy is a widower with 2 kids of 4 and 6. And after 2 years this lady comes along and she says she wants to marry, however, she adds "But I don't know if I can deal with the children that are not mine... what if I don't take in and have mine immediately?" Make sure you have capacity for what you want to carry. Otherwise... this video is your total recall</span></h1>

Non eating end. Many have gradually evolved to discounting the sacrifices you make and pigeonhole it like they deserve it. Trust me, what ever I finally decide to do for you, is something I could have done for someone else. <a name='more'></a>Told you of a guy who made me drive to somewhere in the Southwest to support his show. Show finished at 7pm and because he didn't provide good accommodation I headed back to Lagos that same night. Got into Lagos at about 10pm. The guy did not get in touch to know of it got to Lagos safely. Then a year later he was involved in an accident, I saw it on face book and commented that God be praised for the miracle and he had the temerity to develop an attitude when i saw him in London. He said he will not greet me because I didn't call him when he had the accident. Oh Wow! When people make sacrifices for you, don't for a second think that they did not have a choice of not helping you. Appreciate. I told one comedian the other day, that it's not like I like to throw 3 to 4m away every quarter when I organise <a href="https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/alibabasspontaneity/" style="border: 0px; color: #003569; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">#AlibabasSpontaneity</a> and then crown it with a brand new car at every <a href="https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/january1stconcert/" style="border: 0px; color: #003569; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">#january1stconcert</a>. I know what I can do with such monies. People get their value criterion wrong most times. Mr A makes N2m monthly and spend it on making himself look good and saves the rest. So the day he shows up at a party, he can spray to the admiration of all. Mr B on the other hand makes same N2m monthly. Sorts people's rents, fees, keeps promise to assist, lends (even when he knows they won't pay back) engages in charity activities and hardly has enough left to save. Nigerians consider Mr A as the main man. That is the guy that is happening. Check his shoes out. See his watch. Forget the alloy of his G-wagon... But because he doesn't spread himself thin like Mr B, his show off game is always on point. What people fail to see is how much sacrifice Mr B bears. Some weeks back, while setting up <a href="https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/xqzmoiradio/" style="border: 0px; color: #003569; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">#XQZMOIRadio</a> a guy called me for assistance. Explained bad timing because of the cost implication of this radio thingy. He said "na small thing wey you go give me lead to this story so?" I weak like overripe dodo.</span></h1>

Pardon the pun. While the person's account is red, your land is green it's green ooo oooo! Because the Lord of the harvest told me so. Just blow the Whistle, point the spot and once it's spotted, you get alerted. This is where all them account officers who have been managing billions of dollars for these guys need to clean out and clean up. Just coded lyrics pass the info... leave the rest to the Whistle blower. You can remain an informant. Let the new premiership begin.</span></h1>

Let Donald Trump change the dollar now. Or just change the $100 bill. You will see how many politicians will die of heart attack. The amounts they have stashed in bunkers and safes across the country will drive up their blood pressure. The way Dollar will crash in Nigeria will surprise you. Because when they see that they can't move the funds they will start selling at N200 to $1... and only banks and importers will buy.</span></h1>

Mr Abel has several wives. Only the ones in Green, Black and Red skirts have jobs, where they earned a living. Martha the one in green is a Nurse. The one in black is a teacher. She goes by the name Rose. The wife in Red, is a banker. <a name='more'></a>She earns $2000 monthly. Martha and Rose both earn $200 and $209 monthly. The husband, Mr Abel, is a Forklift driver for a big time beverage company. His total take home is $578. Altogether $2785. The monthly family budget is now drawn on that figure after $85 is kept as savings. That savings over the years has come in handy when one of the kids needed a major surgery that would have swallowed up all their monthly income if the $85 was not kept aside. Unfortunately, the husband's salary was cut to $320. He was lucky he was not laid off, like his other 12 Colleagues. When the banker wife came back, looking really moody. She had be affected by a salary cut. Reducing her monthly pay of $2000 to $1400. The sad part of the whole thing is that the man, still has to run the family like nothing is changed. Abel has decided to borrow money from some of his friends. But none is willing to help him out because, some of the people he had approached all have one wife each. They still can not understand why of all the wives, only 3 worked... yet all get upkeeps. Interestingly, the banker with the highest pull has just one child but pregnant for the second. All other wives are pregnant too. Some for their 6th, 4th, 3rd, 7th or 2nd child. In this family, all wives survive on the salaries described above. THIS MY DEAR FRIENDS IS THE STORY OF NIGERIA. Some states just wait for Federal Allocation. They do not even try to get busy to help support the economy. They still live large like state governors who contribute through the federal account. *Tbc*</span></h1>

Besides the consequences of trade imbalance, total dependence on oil revenues, failure to develop local industries, poor and untapped tourism sector, Niger Delta issues, poor states that only take but can't contribute to Federal Accounts... <a name='more'></a>the other reason is corruption. I was gisting with a very wealthy Nigerian at a birthday party in 2012 and he predicted that dollar will rise to N550. I had a good laugh. He said "shey o fe bet ni? I told Alhaji too, he was arguing with me." You can imagine how I felt when I heard dollar was at N498. I place a call to him. How did you know this would happen back then? He said the first reason is this BVN and uniform banking numbers. Many Nigerians do a lot of crazy things to survive. Most of them illegal. So when the elections drew near, he knew, many people will want to move cash around, buy loyalty, pay for electioneering. With all the extra monitoring of accounts and owners of same. So what is the solution? Dollar. Ok lets say the SouthWest chairman (just as example oooo) says he wants 40m, how do you give him that amount of money? Can't be The naira. Dollar to the rescue. Kickbacks on contracts, bribes and diverted funds can only be moved around in dollar currency. Judges, election officials, political god father return on investment... none of these transactions can be documented through banking transactions. And as the scarcity was driving up the rates, the TSA dealt a blow to government organizations that were earning in dollars. So there you have it. If the homes and hiding places of ex government officials are raided across this country, I bet over 10 billion dollars will be recovered. Easy. Then there are those who get official rates, sell, make a good margin and allow others to do the same, then wait for the next allocation. Nigeria has a long journey. But you know shebi I am an ordinary comedian, what do I know sef!</span></h1>

So many years ago, a group of importers of orange juice woke up to a rumour that Obasanjo's government was going to ban imported juice. <a name='more'></a>The importers and their cronies started running up an down. Sponsoring all kinds of attacks on the government. Some even said the government was banning the imported juice because Obasanjo farms was planning to start production of juice. The government gave them a waver. Since you can't produce here, bring the concentrates and package it here. That way you will create jobs. OBJ went ahead to give the importers 1 year to sort themselves out. Failure to do that the imported brands will be banned from our shelves. They called his bluff. They started importing hundreds of containers of juice. But when the D-day came, the ban came into effects. Initially prices of juice went up. Let me add here that when I became brand ambassador for Hollandia, I got to know why CHIVITA made only orange juice. THE COMPETITION WAS TOO STRONG. Their juice landed in the market at N140 while the foreign ones were cheaper by between 20-40 Naira.. how them wan survive? Chivita had staff that couldn't be sent on training. Where the money? Then the ban came to their rescue. 5alive too made Yanga... but I am sure they saw the damage to their revenue. They came back. What was interesting to hear then was that if Just juice came here to package their juice, it will affect those who are employed back home! Really?! These days it's hard to see foreign juice on our shelves. So tey chivita can now produce all kinds of Flavour. Let us develop our own here, so we can create jobs. Like the influx of foreign television drama. They kill our local content and talents</span></h1>

When I say she was a beauty... I mean finer than Bianca OJUKWU. And as we got gisting and waited for Our Excellency to attend to us, she revealed that she had a 2.1 in Microbiology. <a name='more'></a>At the time, I was a brand ambassador for Chivita (Hollandia). So I asked if she would like to work with Chivita. So I could call Mr BERI. She stood up and said "Why would I go and work with this kind of body?" I then asked why she studied so hard to make 2.1 and end up not wanting to work. She said "Bros, if them tell you say I study, so you go believe?"... she then dropped the bomb. She is not looking for a job. She is looking for a rich boy from a wealthy home, marry him, have kids, and if he misbehaves... "he go settle me and i go just waka". I am bringing this up now, because after her, in the last 6 years, I have met Many young ladies with that mind set. The underlying philosophy with this mindset is that the lady believes a guy holds the key to all her aspirations. Sadly, some guys think like that too. This kind of thinking is why some ladies can not leave abusive relationships. They would rather bear the inhuman treatment than to be free of the abuse and face life on their own.</span></h1>

It rang home with me. Many years ago, in 1986 I learnt how to swim in the legendary Abraka River. <a name='more'></a>I was not very good yet when I noticed that one guy was drowning and the tide was carrying him away. I was the one who noticed him and wanted to go save him. The guy who was teaching me how to beat the strong currents saved me that day. He pulled me back and went to save the drowning undergraduate. Even after the drama of the rescue had died down, I was still in shock. I was shivering. Just by the plain thought of how that guy would have died if it were just he and I swimming at that time. And bang!!!!! It hit me. The guy and I would have died. Because I was not empowered by skills and experience to save him. Thought about it for days. That is exactly what has shaped my selflessness ever since. I will help you to the best of my ability. I will go out of my way to please you. But when it comes to inconveniencing myself to the point where it would hurt me badly... I pause. One day, I will never forget, is the day Sosoliso plane crashed, I was going to Abuja and after sorting my return tickets had just 50k on me. Then this big man whose flight was cancelled, asked me to assist with cash to buy another ticket for him and his babe on chanchangi. He will give me back in Abuja. We got to Abuja at 6pm and I could not check into my hotel till 10pm. He refused to take my calls. My wife had to send a Platinum Bank staff to bail me out. I finished the event the next day and came back to Lagos. I asked him one day in 2009 why he did that and he said "because of ordinary 50k? You pass that one". Never asked him again. Nothing wrong with being kind or assisting anyone. Just love your neighbor AS YOURSELF. NOT MORE. Self love is not a crime. It's the truth. Don't kill yourself to keep anyone else alive. Do the best that you can. Bending backwards is not a must. If you go broke... that's all about your generosity. It's over. Preserve and protect you. First. Then others.</span></h1>

There would be some people, who will decide that they will not send someone they know, a happy new year message, just to see if they will receive one from that person.<a name='more'></a> Doesn't that sound one kind? If you are friends, if the person did not send it, what stops you from sending one. What if the person too had said, if you don't send... she too no send. How do you start a year on that note... by keeping "milings" (that is Waffi for plenty miles between two people, especially when there are unresolved issues). Anyway, back to the matter. Relationships are a 2 way street. If she doesn't get in touch get in touch. HOWEVER, if it becomes a case of, she, the goddess of love, expecting to be reached out to first, before she will even reply, that's a one way street. And if he is the type that never sends a hello every now and then, bye. So this morning I woke to see a reply to a happy new year message I sent someone. "Na today the year start?... same to you". Some people think they are the best thing after sliced bread. If only they know I am on a no carbs diet. See, relationships are mutual. And not just that, the response I get from you when I reach out might just make it more frequent. If "Hey bro long time. Trust you are good. Been a while. I say make I touch base. Family nko?"... is met with "Thanks. We are good." And I go "Beautiful. We thank God" and you go mute... you go dey that mute mode taaaaaaaaaaay! One doesn't need to brag about messages but like many celebrities I know, the inbox or DM is a riot. Some get over 200 messages that's minus junk. So please, if you are a one way friend... e go hard you this year. No time##@</span></h1>

Who knows how many had left? Can you just imagine what comes in through land borders that are not manned? Don't we see banned products on shelves of supermarkets and in various markets? My friend went to a car shop and bought a car. He went on to register it. On his way to Benin, Custom officers stop him and impound the car. He has proof of payment. So they go to the car dealers shop. And he got his money back. Well not all of it. That's another story. 2 months later, car dealer is back in business. What would it take for custom officers to comb markets and stores. Because just like piracy, these things will continue if government fails to activate the powers of the agencies. And most importantly if those who should do their jobs let things happen and turn a blind eye to wrong things</span></h1>

You can be poor and still help someone who is rich. You must find what it is that you have inside you, that is your ability. That is what you will use to uplift the person who may look like they don't need help.<a name='more'></a> So I got a brain wave to assist couples who have issues with having issues and I came up with <a href="https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/firstfruitproject/" style="border: 0px; color: #003569; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">#FirstFruitProject</a> by partnering with <a href="https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/nordicalagos/" style="border: 0px; color: #003569; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">#nordicalagos</a> to make the dreams of those couple come true. Days after the project account was opened, some of the first people to donate were cancer survivors, physically challenged and less privileged people amongst us. Even a woman who is also waiting on the Lord for her own fruit of the womb donated. That got me. Then this morning, I saw this picture. The picture informed me to highlight something. When people decide to be of help... don't take it for granted because, whatever they are helping you with COULD JUST BE A SACRIFICE. As you can see in the picture. In 2006, guy came to ask for assistance because his pregnant wife was in the hospital. On that same day, another guy, who owned a one man band had asked me to loan him money to buy a DSR keyboard. I prioritized. You can then imagine how I felt when I saw him declaring shakks with his friends at a club 2 days later. Sorry I digresesed. No matter your HANDicaps, you can still lend a helping HAND.</span></h1>

It's worse than piracy or even yahoo yahoo. They wait for your ideas to mature and jump on it. <a name='more'></a>After the 2004 national honours... where President Obasanjo changed Ali Baba to Ali Baba gcfr, I started using the name online. Some smart guy decided it was his road to success. So when I tried to register www.alibabagcfr.com it was not available. Not long after, I started receiving messages from the guy offering the site for sale. I no answer am. So from that 2004 till last year, he has been renewing the subscription. Then <a class="notranslate" href="https://www.instagram.com/drshogo/" style="border: 0px; color: #003569; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">@drshogo</a> saw it as available and called my attention to it. Now www.alibabagcfr.com is registered to me. You can then imagine this morning I get a message from one Abiodun... saying he was the first person to register the name since 2004. And it's only because he failed to renew it so he deserves some reward for keeping it for me. I still no send am. Apparently speculative registration is also common with television programmes. A guy even went as far as to registering "Naija Idols" as his original idea when you know there is American Idol. By the way, stealing people's original ideas didn't start today. Remember when Jacob claimed to be Esau. See all he went through to reap from where he did not sow? This is why I advise all creative minds always document or register your ideas. Many have the MEANS But lack ideas. Many have the IDEAS but no means. Protect your ideas. The thieves are about</span></h1>

And she BELIEVES a smart man would be sharp enough to figure things out even before she hints they need to be sorted out... <a name='more'></a>She however knows that a man that is not smart will always think she is trying to chance him. Which is totally different from a smart man. He will let her get away with just enough. But for a man that is not smart... ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! I AM THE MAN IN THIS RELATIONSHIP!... Smart men don't need to shout. Because it is written that when you hear a man shouting that he is the head of this house! Chances are he is not. If he were, he won't need to shout it. But lorokan sha... smart women know how hard it will be to raise kids that take looks from them and brains from their father... assuming he is not smart... homework will have to be outsourced. One key ingredient in dating a smart man, I hear ladies say all the time, is that he knows what you want to do and why you want to do it. He is then just waiting for the how and when. On the flip side, the man doesn't want to know what, why, when and how you want to do anything unless he permits it... what do I know sef...</span></h1>

If as an artiste you are sharper in thought and idea processing, than your artiste manager, what you have is an Ordinary Assistant. Your artiste manager should be light years ahead of your goals. He or she should be the person who gives your ideas wings. <a name='more'></a>The person who makes things happen. The person who smells out opportunities. The person who realigns your career anytime it seems like it is derailing. Many artistes just have employees who receive salaries from what the artiste's weight can pull. At best, they are just your staff. Don't go about parading anyone as your artiste manager when the person is just an assistant. The artiste manager must be in sync with your dreams and aspirations. He or she must buy into your strengths and fold up his or her sleeves to erase your weaknesses or at best turn them to positives. <a class="notranslate" href="https://www.instagram.com/soundsultan/" style="border: 0px; color: #003569; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">@soundsultan</a> years back went for a meeting with his artiste manager at Celtel/Zain and a call came in for the Manager. The manager's ring tone was Gongo Aso... of course he was let go. I see many artistes whose careers are in slow mo... and I meet their managers and immediately I know why. I had met one artiste manager once at Muson Center. I asked after his artiste. He said, "Bros, him no dey get show again. I been even wan ask if I fit come work with you." Abeg na new year, make I no come let them sack some people. But let me just say this, when you were employed as a manager of an artiste, you must show how you plan to increase his performance, personality, business network, quality of thought, manage circle of friends, protect Artiste's interests, improve his knowledge of life and society, encourage positive vibes, good PR and maximize potentials... amongst other things. Picking up cheques and ensuring he or she gets his or her fees paid is the least of what you are. An executive assistant can do that... and more. In Nigeria, as the artiste manager you need to be in charge of the creative drive and growth of your artiste. Not to be on the pay roll and be claiming title and flexing swag up and Dan.

You can not say you have stopped smoking and stop smoking. You have to come to terms with why you smoke, deal with it and then you will stop smoking. That means, if you smoke weed to get high, then there must be a reason why you want to get high. <a name='more'></a>If you steal, you can not stop stealing by not taking people's money. You stop stealing by understanding why you were doing it. I met a 47 year old guy who begs at event venues. I asked him why he has not changed since I met him in 1997... and he is still begging. He said "Oga Ali, what can I do? I am lazy. Moo le puro funyi. (I cant lie to you) Mo y'ole. (I am a confirmed lazy guy) Nkan Timo tifi to awon omo re" (I have brought up all my kids with begging). So, if he has to change the behaviour (begging) he can not stop begging (behavioural modification). He has to stop begging and find work (accepting his laziness and finding a job to change that). In other words, if you stop the behaviour by modification (that's faith at work) but when you start changing your identity to another person entirely, that is working on the faith you have. That is why faith without works is worthless. When you say you will stop compulsive buying... that is a modification. But if you don't change that your identity that drives you to compulsively buy things, you won't make it. Because if you buy things to belong to a particular class, or do certain things to be accepted into a clique, until you change that quest to identify... you will continue to buy to qualify.

He said he always likes to have a solution nearby. But this is not about him. This is about the Nigerian creative sector. We have gone to sleep for too long.

It's almost a coma. This is not to take away from the achievement of Channels. They deserve to win again and again. They worked hard for it. How is it that some who does one thing is beating you, that does everything, including what Channels does and even has a wider reach, can't beat them hands down? At best, with all creative abilities in your possession, activated, what Channels should win should be News Station of the year. But no. You have missed the memo. Content is king. That was till Channels came out. Now News content is king. John MOMOH and his team deserve all the credits they get. Because there is no excuse.</span></h1>

Very often, they have been raised that way, or they were conditioned that way, or they have gotten away with it so many times, or they think that it's the only approach to things. <a name='more'></a>One profound thing I have always found to be true is that if the only tool you have in life to deal with issues in your life is a HAMMER, everything will look like a NAIL in your eyes. Lack of education, poor upbringing, poverty, denied love and attention, absence of inspirational role models, child abuse and bad friends contribute a lot to these kind of behaviour as exhibited in this video. You will notice that the man came out attacking. Even when he was being begged to stop. He continued hitting. Can you now imagine if the person he hit, had a history of violence? THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENS IN RELATIONSHIPS. People from different backgrounds, raised differently, come into a partnership and the interplay of the consequences of those upbringing start to manifest. Train a child the way he should go and when he grows up HE WILL NOT depart from it. That means the only way to make him depart from it, is RETRAINING. How do you retrain an adult? Just like you saw in this video, that is is the process. At least now he knows that he can not just attack anyone, when he is upset, because they might be stronger and put your ego on the floor. HE of course had always gotten away With it. That's what needs to start happening. WE HAVE LET THESE HERDSMEN THINK NOTHING CAN HAPPEN WHEN THEY STRIKE. That is why they still do and will continue to do. Until they realise that there are repercussions. Until then, the herdsmen have the upper hand over the State, the police, the army and the people. I have been proven right times without number.</span></h1>

That little that trickles down, is what is not coming any more. <a name='more'></a>That is why many people are now saying let us all just kuku go back to status quo. Let us stop giving few people the chance to chop our commonwealth while we are just ok with the crumbs. Let there be a timetable... and let everyone eat at the table, in the dining hall. Not to allow a select few who will now use our collective wealth to amass wealth, live large, build mansions, build investments they will retire to when they leave office, afford foreign education for their kids... you see, there is no way it was going to be easy to reverse the many wrongs. I understand not all who are now helping to recalibrate the system are not saints, but trust me, even the spies sent by Moses and Joshua, needed Rehab... l believe things will get better.</span></h1>
