1. Choose your niche The first thing you need to do before starting any blog is choosing your niche. You can start blogging about anything but if you want to make money from it then you have to choose something that people are searching for.

For It's No longer farfetched that general elections is again, at the corner. No longer farfetched that politicians are already at every nooks and crannies of our communities, on different social media handles, on radio and television stations, at social gatherings with their usual promises and political bargains. No longer farfetched that political office Aspirants are now buying intentions and soon nomination forms to contest for different political positions. No longer farfetched that politicians are now running round the clock lobbying political party members, re-.awakening old and abandoned relationships, gathering supporters etc. No longer farfetched that politicians are now picking calls, returning missed calls, commenting on posts, replying text messages etc No longer farfetched that you and I are now making decisions on who to support and who not to support, who to vote for and who not to vote for and whereas,  some of us  have already chosen  a candidate or ou

AS THE GOOD PEOPLE OF NIKE TAKE THE ADVOCACY TO THE NEXT LEVEL...

When Martin Luther King (jnr.) said in one of his most famous quotes on leadership, “A genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus”, the late sage was reminding us of the power we have as leaders to listen deeply and bring people together in discourse in order to arrive at a popular decision. Such power is more prominent in a democracy like ours, especially, where there are diverse interests and shades of opinions on specific matters and where every stakeholder in the political system is regarded as a leader in their own wise. At such times when there are contrasting opinions and or interests on particular issues, it becomes the responsibility of such consensus molders to search for a common ground with a view to engendering probity, equity and justice in the system. Meanwhile, as we count down to the 2023 general elections in Nigeria, there are several issues bothering on zoning and choice of candidates which if not handled with human face will

I advise parents to get professional counsellor for their children particularly first born.

Image
As Christian theologian, who is the mother queen of all science, the temptation to assume I have all it takes to bring up a child is high. But while I possessed their spiritual growth in place of prayers it's advisable to engage professional counsellor in their morality and career wise. If you don't believe me get a book on IF YOU WANT TO BE RICH AND HAPPY DON'T GO TO SCHOOL authored by Rebert T. Kiyosaki. It's common mistake as parents to think we have all it takes to bring up our children. Don't be part of this mistake get him or her a certified counsellor today and you will be glad you did in days ahead. When the first born are properly raised the tendency for the younger ones to learn from the first is also high. I presume a word is sufficient for the wise. Thank you for your time. -Theophilus of Africa, an elucidator for Truth, Nigeria confluence 1977.

WHY I CONCEDED DEFEAT TO BUHARI

Image
“I was fully informed about the manipulations, intrigues, intimidation and betrayals. The consequences of not conceding were only better imagined. My natural instinct for peace automatically surfaced. I was going to make a decision which reflected my commitment to that ideal. This is the foundation of my essence. In my periodic projections into the future, I did not see how I would be presiding over any kind of chaos. I was prepared to promote the peace, unity and progress of Nigeria." This is a huge sacrifice, but I hope my readers believe me when I say it turned out to be one of the easiest decisions I ever took while in office. "With my mind made up, I knew it was time to inject peace into the tensed polity, especially before INEC completed collation. “I was in my living room with some ministers, aides and friends. Among them were the Coordinating Minister for the Economy/Honourable Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Honourable Attorney General of th

When you think about Lent, what words come to mind? Self-discipline? Sacrifice? Duty? Lent starts yesterday, and it’s a 40-day period of making space for God leading up to Easter. Every year, millions of Christians choose to give things up in order to put Jesus first. Lent might seem like an obligation, but it’s actually an invitation. It’s about denying ourselves so we can learn to walk in God’s unforced rhythms of grace. Between now and Easter Sunday, create space for what matters most. Invest a few minutes each day spending time with God. And, know that millions of people will be joining you, putting Jesus first. Beside RCCG cooperate Lent that ended yesterday you can choose a personal Lent plan for yourself.
