So I found this on quora. They blocked my acount shortly after this. For no reason.

So I saw this on quora.

It reminded me of some of the silly questions I have seen on the app, like do we have banks in Nigeria?

She's Kenyan by the way.

Update: Quora blocked my account. This is the first time anything like this is happening to me and I am so angry about it. All the views I had gathered on that post just went to waste.

I hope it is not because I am black. Can someone tell them blacks who are from Africa don't feel racism. We are champions.

NRM Set To Launch #NotTooPoorToRun Campaign Ahead of 2019 General Elections

In the face of various political activities ahead of the 2019 general elections, permutations have kick started as politicians and political parties strategze to either gain power or retain it.



While the money bags are busy spreading money here and there, the young emerging leaders are left with nothing but their dreams and sincere aspirations. The biggest challenge facing them is lack of funding for electoral consultations and campaigns. Reason why great minds with incredible leadership skills always shy away from politics because they think they do not have the finances needed to face the fraudulent money bags in the system. 

Most of the time these young leaders don't even have money to buy nomination forms which are always too exorbitant for the average Nigerian. This in itself is a deliberate plan by the old gladiators to keep recycling the themselves in the corridors of power. 

With the passage of the #NotTooYoungToRun Bill into law, the young and patriotic people of Nigeria are optimistic that the right time has come for them to take center stage in providing the leadership that Nigerians have earnestly waited for. With the challenges of financing ahead of them however, it became necessary that a step be taken that will activate the capacities of young people irrespective of their financial backgrounds. This is why the #NotTooPoorToRun campaign was initiated as an activation response to the #NotTooYoungToRun law.



The #NotTooPoorToRun campaign, an initiative of The National Rescue Movement (NRM) which will be officially launched in a couple of weeks, seeks to provide an enabling platform within the party for young aspiring leaders by granting nomination forms/tickets in all electoral categories free of charge to all aspirants in the 2019 elections. 



Addressing newsmen recently, the National Chairman of the party, Senator Saidu Dansadau said; 

"This initiative became necessary because if governance continue to remain in the hands of crooked money bags, then the hope of achieving a better Nigeria will remain an illusion forever. This is because humble, true and sincere Nigerians will never have the chance to serve their Nation politically".

My most intellectual posts for the week...

Knowing how much I love Nigeria, I am interested in posts that talk about what is wrong with Nigeria and how to fix it.

There is this dude called Kalu Aja who knows a lot about economy. The economy in Nigeria is something I would like to get better. As much as I am excluded from much of the suffering (by virtue of heaven's intervention in providing for me, if you are Christian, you would love my blog) I want Nigeria to be better.

I read a lot of newspapers especially the ones that I have worked at. BusinessDay Nigeria fascinates me because I get to participate in translating it to a newspaper/digital company so some of the stories naturally interest me.

This week I loved:

Nigeria’s biggest problem is not corruption, it is Federal CharacterNigeria’s biggest problem is not corruption but Federal Character.

Federal Character is the “PROPORTIONAL” allocation of projects, appointments to Nigerians and Nigerian States irrespective of competence, science, need or empirical analysis, simply tribe coded as States is used. Read more.

Ex-FIFA president Blatter happy to be in Russia

Ex-FIFA President Sepp Blatter said he is happy to be back in Moscow, three years after his last visit. Blatter undertook his last visit for the 2018 World Cup qualifying draw in July 2015 at a time when he felt it unsafe to visit any other country for fear of being detained on a warrant from the United States Justice Department in its football corruption investigation.

There is another story called, 'Why Ajaokuta won't work', it speaks about all the craziness that went into the making of Nigeria. You will have to visit BusinessDay to read it.

He talked about money swallowing animals
Armed robber SARS that you have to bail yourself when they catch you
and yet even though the innocent are caught daily

They cannot touch the real criminals
You will enjoy the video
He touched on the health system, the hypocrisy of the church (my hand nor dey there o, let the Lord be the judge, I am not judging)

Electricity, #lazynigerianyouths, massacres, bailing yourself from police officers

A line in the song:

When looters and killers are still conducting elections
