Nigeria my Country, my home, my pride.....is becoming a Failure

Hmmmm!!!!! you know right from my childhood up till my present adulthood, have not really seen any changes in this God's own country called Nigeria that i call my own motherland...it has always been the same old story of hunger, poverty, bad roads, power failure(PHCN), bad management in the educational system, increase in gas rates, increase in Subsidy rates in Fuel, corruption in all the sectors in the government.. all of this when i think about it makes me wanna cry over and over again.. Because for Heaven's sakes we are very rich in this country.. because we got mineral resources and all that it takes to make Nigeria be like America..
 But the question now is what and where are our problems generating from? who are the people incuring this sufferness upon us?

Its a shame that we have a system that can work; but because of the lack of discipline, corruption, greed, selfishness, amongst the so called ''LEADERS'' that we elected with our own sane minds; hoping for the best from them, and we all fell prey to their cheap lies of taking Nigeria to the promise land and making it a great place for us the ''MASSES'' and fulfil their heart desires.

Last month here when i travelled to Ghana here, a country that Nigeria used to supply Electricity back then has become so independent on its own, now supplies a 24hrs Electricity to the masses, the power doesnt blink for a second.I enjoyed this and i swear down i didnt wanna come back to Nigeria again. Ghana that according to the Census reading doesnt have human population like Nigeria has good roads and a system that works perfectly well making life so easy for its citizens.....you dont even wanna see the excellent roads Ghana has to make the citizens live a good and comfortable life.

Above is a few pictures i took in Ghana while i went to visit their Independence square and their lovely Labadi Beach...i was just so in love with the whole atmosphere... this picture is a clear vision that Ghana is a country that has got good leaders governing the country and the people well. This isnt just about this particular location alone...this road is like this right from when you enter the border between Togo and Ghana which is called ''Afflawo'' for those who has gone to ghana by road before; everywhere is well tiled, no pot holes that could cause some stupid and frustrating traffic jam for hours like that of Nigeria, you just feel so at home.Was with my Ghanian friend whose name is ''Mamia'' and when she asked me if my country has a good road like theirs; i felt so ashamed and could not utter a word., because if i do that means i would be lying....

So what am i trying to say in essence, all am trying to say is that Nigeria needs to wake up from its slumber and stop going backwards rather go Upwards and become giants like we are been called ''Giant of Africa''... Our leaders need to start fulfilling their promises and stop making the masses cry and stop raining curses upon them...we have all it takes because God has blessed Nigeria so abundantly from the very begining . They also need to stop been greedy and  thinking of themselves alone but rather should think of a way forward for Nigeria and its citizens.. which i happen to be one.  And we Nigerian youths got to also stand up and fight for our rights!!!! Nigeria our motherland, and she is calling upon us, so lets all obey the call and do the right things.

Nigeria will rise and be free from bad leaders some day!!!!! This i believe so much...

Nothing is called ''Impossible'' on this planet earth......as Chinedu Ikedieze weds in style

He who finds a wife findeth a good thing and obtain Favour from the Lord....thou says the Bible. You know funny enough even i; have been wondering all this years if this Chinedu guy will ever get married mainly because of his Small Stature, and i know most girls would wanna marry him because of his wealth and not for love; but to my greatest surprise he got married sometimes ago with some lady then we started hearing gossips that they have divorced, until it came to reality, when Chinedu himself said the lady married him for his money. Now he decided again to tie the knot with his girlfriend of many years, Miss Nneoma Hope Nwajah at last @ St.Theresa’s Catholic Church Primary School field, Obolo, Isiala Mbano, Imo State....this Saturday having their friends and families at the wedding!!

Chinedu and Nneoma am wishing you guys the very best in your marriage with lotta happiness, free from sickness, pain and suffering, good tidings, blessed children from God. Congratulations!!!!!

LaDiEs,HaIr, and MaKeuP.....An evening to remember with Face of Sleek

You know the popular saying that says "A soup that is sweet, its a whole lot of money that killed it" hmm!!! that statement was proved just yesterday. The popular makeup brand that most ladies love its every products called "SLEEK'' held its Symphony of Style III @ Harbour point event centre in victoria Island Lagos, yesterday. That event has been on ma mind like seriously through out the whole of lastweek..been thinking of how to dress up and kill 'em with my gorgeous outfit... had to check for the dress code for this lovely event, you know then i found out its an ''All black'' thing. yup!!! yup!!! prayed for the weekend to come asap cuz the event is to hold on the beautiful Sunday evening. Sunday morning came low and behold; went to Church to give praise to my creator; service was great you know , while i was just so praying they share the grace on time so i can go home. Needed to just get prepared for the event, was looking at the clock as it ticks. At exactly 4pm, i rushed up to freshen up and got dressed up at my best.I was just feeling so happy cuz i knew it was gonna be a very good evening for me, and as to make my weekend worth it. I got ready asap and got into a Car while my big brother went to drop me off @ the bustop. Immediately i got a Cab that took me to Victoria Island and didnt go through any stress at all. Enjoyed my trip cuz the Chaffeur was playing some sweet songs from my favourite artiste called ''Wizkid''. Didnt even know when we got to the event venue cuz the cab was Air-conditioned, i just got down and paid my fee. And went in with my invite like a VIP while the Bouncer guys didnt allow some group of girls into the venue. I went inside and sat like a perfect gentle lady that i am. Shortly my Colleague Gbemi, came in and we sat down gisting. In about 20mins Gbemi's friend called Tosin came so we had to go get her; then to my greatest surprise i saw a friend of mine whom i never thought or woulda imagined would be at the event walk in; and we hugged and laughed then i went my way. I forgot my Invite card inside, so the bouncer guy asked for it then i got embarrased like i came there witout an I.v. Then luckily for me my colleague came out cuz she noticed we taking time, then she had to give me her invite and didnt bother stepping out cuz if she did; she wont be able to enter back into the auditorium. I enjoyed my evening as we got served some assorted small chops and wines. The sleek girls came out with their various weavons for us to see , you know two outta the girls got me mesmerized cuz they are so pretty and their personality. My colleague then told me "That light complexioned chubby girl is an in-law to Ill Bliss the musician" then i was just so concentrated to seeing what she has got to show, low and behold she did excellently and i loved all their attires. Everyone in attendance were all looking drop dead gorgeous, you dont wanna try the whole paparassi ish and red carpet thing; It made a whole lotta sense. Then my night got so so interesting when some dancers came to dance in otherwords passing across to us that Sleek is a good product so as to encourage people to keep buying it. Resonance also made my night with her melodious voice and her dress like that of an Angel. The part that cracked my ribs was when this popular lady called ''Chi Girl'' came on stage and cracked my ribs and everyone sitted there's ribs. She told all of us to keep echoing ''YES'' to anything she says. My night was splendid as ''Wizkid'' my favourite young artiste came on stage..then i just had to get going cuz i couldnt predict the traffic jam that would be in Victoria Island and Jezz!!! it was already 9:30pm, had to miss the whole of sensation going on there cuz of Wizkid. But trust me i had lotta fun, and also lotta pictures with my friend ''Ngozi''......

WeLcoMe To My wOrLd....

 

     Random, Funny, and Sometimes just bizarre

I've been thinking a lot about honesty. I'm not talking truth vs. lie, I'm talking about openness, being real, being honest about what you think and feel.

I was thinking back to younger Faith, when telling a story of something that happened or something that was going on, in my description of the situation or circumstances, I always included how I felt. I described my thoughts and emotions in every situation. In particular, I'm thinking about my teen & young adult years. My friends at the time, they didn't make fun of it, but they found it amusing; and they would stop me and to ask, "Wait, how were you feeling, hope you better now?". It never "hurt" my feelings, but I became keenly aware of what I shared. Maybe people didn't really want to know what I was feeling.

I don't think my young mind truly processed it at the time, but hindsight I can see where I stopped sharing my emotions. You have to be in the inner circle and willing to dig a little to get my real feelings and emotions. (Yes, I'm fully aware of how unhealthy that is).

A couple of weeks ago I was put on the spot. It
wasn't a question that was life or death that needed to answer, but it was a question that would require me to be a little vulnerable and share what I might really be thinking or feeling. Instead I laughed it off and made an escape. You know what's sad about all of that? I wanted/needed someone to ask that question, so I could get answers myself. But that would've required some honesty from myself. Why is that so scary? I know it was scary because I didn't know what the other answer would be, but hadn't I been complaining about needing an answer?

What right do I have to be angry or upset at someone else's lack of candid honesty, when I can't or won't give it to myself??

I'm not wanting to be the girl that attaches her emotions to everything, but I do think it's time to be the very girl that is just been real & honest with her emotions and what she feels too.

So I guess it begins here..............Chao!!!!
