THE NIGERIAN YOUTH, THE FUTURE (TECHNOLOGY AND ENTERTAINMENT)

One of the biggest achievements of President’s Buhari’s government is to the stop the bleeding of the nation’s resources. The previous regime made a few people midnight millionaires and billionaires. For any country to progress there is a need for everyone to see rewards in hardwork and not thiefwork .  The present administration has embarked on a lot of agricultural projects which the sole aim of boosting our local production of food products and also create employment opportunities. This is a noble idea but let us call a spade a spade, the Nigerian youth is what I call the elitist youth – they are mostly not interested in agricultural work. Rather than focus on trying to get them engaged in farms, we have to find other ways of getting them gainfully employed and effective for the nation’s growth. The future simply for the Nigerian youth is technology and entertainment. The government should not worry about those that would do the farm work, just like what is happening in...

Man beat up woman at New york parking lot

Image
A father-of-two accused of punching a woman so hard in a dispute over a parking space that she is still in a coma is claiming that she threw the first punch, and that he was acting in self-defence. The altercation took place on February 25 when 4ft 11in, 100 pound Lana Rosas, 25, was standing in the space she was saving for her boyfriend on 14th street in New York’s East Village and refused to let 35-year-old, 150-pound Oscar Fuller park there. The argument that followed left Rosas lying in the street unconscious with blood pouring from her mouth. She has been in a coma at Bellevue Hospital ever since the February 25 incident.

What makes their relationship work ?

Image
I have wondered what makes this two together. They may love each other, They may have enough money in their accounts But i think the most important factor keeping their relationship going is the ability to shut out the press from their relationship. They don't release any kind of info about their relationship to the press. To me that is what keeps them going. Total blackout to the press.

Nigeria a@50 - Day 27 : I LOVE HOME

Image
"Nigeria at 50, Day 26 - Tobenna www.eyemuse.blogspot.com ================================================== I shout at the top of my voice "Hello , can you hear me !!!" I can hear her voice, but she can't hear me. I have to dial again and again before the great MTN or is it the mighty GLO allows us to converse. This remains my daily communication with home. Her heart beats when she hears my hi(s). My heart skips when I hear her bye(s). Her mind ponders. My mind wonders. Her voice resonates ripples across the ocean waters. My voice baritones across the wavy atlantic waters. I can sense her pains. She can sense my groans. I can feel the tears dropping down her cheeks. She can sense the fears from the pulse of my beats. Her voice echoes from a distance. My voice thunders from the mountains. My mind gropes in the dark when the phone clicks. Her mind is revived when the line rings. Our eyes do not clash, but our hearts remain meshed. Our flesh is weakened, but our heart...

The wife of Robert Mugabe has been having a secret affair with one of her husband’s best friends, it was claimed yesterday. Grace Mugabe – who is 41 years younger than Zimbabwe’s 86-year-old president – has spent the past five years cuckolding him with Gideon Gono, head of the country’s central bank. The couple would meet as often as three times a month either at her dairy farm or in expensive hotels in neighbouring South Africa.

Women 'are raping men in Zimbabwe for rituals'

Image
Male hitchhikers face a new threat in Zimbabwe from women who are abducting and raping them for ritual purposes. Six men have been gang-raped by women in the last 11 months in a phenomenon that has tongues wagging in this deeply conservative society. Police say the figure could be much higher as the victims are often too embarrassed to report the crime. In ADVERTISEMENT the most recent case, a 26-year-old policeman from Bulawayo was drugged and raped by three women, the official Chronicle daily reported. The man was offered a lift in a minibus with three female passengers. "When he sat down, one of the passengers suddenly put a cloth saturated with a drug on his nose and he passed out," the paper said. He regained consciousness to find the three women sexually abusing him. He was eventually abandoned outside the city, minus his mobile phone and $30. "Clues given by the victim are being followed up," said police spokesman Bekimpilo Ndlovu. Similar attacks have been r...
