Realities of Today Blog: A Nigerian Initiative for Enlightenment

Arguably, the death of a poor man in the society has no meaning and account to the general public while the sojourn of a rich popular person raises a lot of eyebrows. Simply put, the irony of life is like a chameleon full of dramas where life is light while the opposite (death) is "darkness". The respect given to the life of an individual is directly connected to their position in the society (profession, occupation, national duties/assignment), which therefore grants them the same respect at their demise. Death rumour in Nigeria's politics is not a new development to the updated/informed being from inception till date (except for cases withheld for traditional rites). Among the list of the death-rumoured dignitaries who lived afterwards were;  Awujale of Ijebu Land - Oba Sikiru Adetona, Ooni of Ile Ife - Oba Sijuade Okunade ,  Governor of Kogi State - Yahaya Bello Former Delta State Governor - Dr Emmanuel Uduaghan, Former President - Ibrahim Babangida,  Form

The greatness of America as a nation today has a connection with the contribution of people of different races (white, black or half cast) from earliest time till date. Since Rome was not built in a day, special praises should be given to appropriate contributors - governor, president, entrepreneur, inventor, e.t.c. Noticeably, the arrow head of the United States of America,the President had been instrumental in the struggle for development from the days of George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, John Kennedy, George Bush's, Bill Clinton, Barrack Obama, and recently Donald Trump. Outcome of  the 2016 Presidential election left people (within and outside the states) shocked as the World anticipated for the first Female President due to poll results and debate.

Relationship today requires more than the physique "Beautiful Face", "Six Packs", "Sexy Pink Lips", "Lovely Eyes" of the duo - as other factors (within and outside the parties) play significant role. On this course, the index here is "Profession" looking at it from the male point of view as it has tendency to determine the happiness of the female. Such profession discussed here are; Medicine and co (Doctors, Nurses). Lecturing (Lecturer) Linguistic (Author/Speakers) Professional Acting  Law (Lawyers) Medical Practitioners The respect accorded to this profession (particularly Medicine and Nursing) from anywhere in the World plays a culminating factor on the actions and reactions of this practitioners as regards "friendship", "dating" "courtship" and "marriage at the extreme". The profession breeds in most of them Ego (Self-Respect, Self-Belief, Self-Confidence, Self-Worth) whic

The notion "health is wealth" is not just an assertion to the rich as against the poor who placed survival first, it is rather a do or do affair. In essence, the rich people "World Leaders", "Business Moguls", "Celebrities" seems to spend more money checking and rechecking their health status periodically. Due to the differences in the level of development across countries, people choose either to seek medical care within or outside their locals. The case of African leaders is a pointer to the level of their structural health imbalances which amongst other grant them the peripheral seat as used by Immanuel Wallerstein. In simplicity, there are many developed nations of today (Cuba, America, United Kingdom, Malaysia, India, Israel...) which are way ahead of others (sub-Saharan Africa in particular) by standard of health care service and its delivery to urban-rich, urban-poor, rural-rich, and rural-poor.

Society today hold in high esteem certain code and conduct which might not be common to other nations of the World - within/outside their continent. Practically, the fashion sense of the Westerners today (Americans and co) is totally contrary to the African (Nigeria in particular)

Gambia - one of the tiniest country in Africa governed by both democratic leaders and military lord from inception till date is currently under duress for a new course. The earliest noticeable twist in Gambia's leadership and governance can be attributed to the successful coup-de-tat carried out in 1994 by Lieutenant Yahya Jammeh (now incumbent President) and hosts of other young officers against President Sir Dawda Jawara. Since the transition, history holds that the experience of the ruled had been worrisome due to series of human rights violations recorded against Gambians (causing inhabitants fears) and others on Gambia soil.  As democracy became the order of the day in the globe (African soil inclusive), the military lord "Gambia's Abacha" created the platform for the switch/transition. He triumphed at the first engagement in 1996, same as 2001, 2006, and 2011 while his fifth quest in 2016 came as a shock (just like Hillary Clinton defeat). Noticeably, th

Religion and Politics from anywhere in the world (Nigeria inclusive) has never been for once "dissected" or totally independent from the other i.e. religion influences politics either negatively or positively and vice versa. The practicality of the aforementioned cannot be underestimated due to the accounts, records, happenings and scenario in the world today.  To mention but a few, is it the; role played by the Islamic terrorist group overtime - ISIS, Al-Qaeda, Boko Haram  role of Emir of Kano and Sokoto at local level power vested in the hands of Pope or Imam on foreign affairs might (weight) in their utterances as regards issue affecting the peace and stability of the state. Another unexpected/unanticipated rapport between religion and politics is attached to the recent action of the General Overseer of Redeemed Christian Church of God (R.C.C.G) home and abroad in person of Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye. The much celebrated G.O personally decided to step-dow
