TINUBU: A CONSISTENT, DETERMINED, PATIENT & LIBERAL POLITICIAN.

TINUBU: A CONSISTENT, DETERMINED, PATIENT & LIBERAL POLITICIAN. The harm that humanity has done to many great men on earth is that we chose to talk about them after their death, but it is a good idea to write or say to the world and to the ears of concerned persons their good deeds while they remained with us. What that does to the people is that it makes them feel good to continue to do good, and also makes them happy that their deeds are all noted. God is also in the habit of making a vow and rewarding great men who chose to do extraordinary things. He made a vow to David that his lineage will forever occupy the throne of Israel. For every cross, there is a crown. Those who do good will reap their reward on earth and thereafter. The Pareto principles have also shown to me that people focus more on just few negative things about good people and if care is not taking; those other fantastic things could be neglected. Therefore, as an observer of events in Nigeria and a researcher t...

Dr. Adeoye Recognizes Civil Servants Impact, Says They Are Nation Builders No country can do well without a vibrant civil service. If they work well; there will be National Development and if they don't, nations will fail. Hence, my first charge is to civil servants and secondly to the politicians who treat them unfairly and with disrespect sometimes. CHARGE TO WORKERS. As we celebrate workers day today; I charge Nigerian workers to treat every human being and entities whose file appear on their table as their employer..  It has been a major problem in Nigeria that workers treat people who need anything from them like beggars who need their favour but rather it should be service with joy and patriotic attitude. Hence, I charge the following entities among others to treat people as their employers and reason for the existence of their agency, ministries, or commission . 1. NAFDAC. 2. SON 3. FAN 4. EFCC 5. ICPC 6. FIRS 7. STATE IRS 8. IMMIGRATION 9. CUSTOM SERVICES 10. SPORT COMMISSI...

Read this story with me Sometimes ago I met a woman who has so many burdens to bear, after moving closer I discovered that she was helping so many people to carry their heavy luggage, at first I had thought how could this be, then I realized that there are few born for the purpose of service to God and humanity, one thing is that you cannot even talked to her to stop helping people, because in doing so lies her pleasure. In 2018 before the 2019 election, this woman and her husband came on a health mission in Ifo/ Ewekoro federal constituency, thousands of people were screened medically, eye glasses provided those with impaired eye sight, drugs administered to those with health related issues, millions of Naira was expended on the people of Ifo/ Ewekoro, what a huge investments. I have lost counts of those who approached this same woman with sorry case and she came through for them, the most shocking is the fact that she is never a fan of people saying thank you, she tries all she could...
