Till I Reach My Dream

I will keep on till I reach my dream

My engine will not run out of steam

I shall not be deterred by rivers and mountains

Neither shall I be halted by stabs and pains

Unto lofty heights I march

No place better than whence I march

I see nothing else save the dream

That alone I hold in high esteem

All that oppose, my resolve defies

Till it hath wings, takes off and flies

A stormy cloud cannot break my stride

Neither shall violent winds push me aside

11 defenders may stand between me and goal

Forty tackles or not I will score yet another goal

Nothing shall be impossible with me

Nothing shall be able to withstand me

My dream drives me to greatness

And compels me to move with boldness

When my strength is gone and my body drained

His joy comes, lifting me to heights ordained

I’m not hindered by angels or demons

His grace carries me and I slay dragons

My soul is thankful and jubilant

I reached my dream strong and triumphant

You should keep on till you reach your dream!

Why Have We Decided?

Why have we decided to blog? Why have we decided to create a website just for blogging? Who are the bloggers and Why are they blogging the internet? Just what is this blogging all about?

LAI'S JOLLOF RICE

I had a neighbour once. A good neighbour. He told us back then that # JollofRice was quite tasty in Senegal. Tonight though, the minister of Culture, Tourism and Information Alh. Lai Mohammed was asked on # CNN 's Quest Means Business "which country makes the best #JollofRice" and Richard Quest actually had a bowl brought in for his view. "I would say Senegal" came the reply from the minister. "There is shock from the country" predicted Richard Quest. Twitter Nigeria is quite displeased with the res ponse and I'm certain others will follow. Two key areas for me in the interview: what are you positioning Nigeria as with Nollywood? Lai's response showed emphatically the directionless leadership of the incumbent administration. You do not have to be a brand strategist or a digital marketer to project Nigeria to the world as being the place for this and that! Oga Lai, that was your moment and you said something else. Then when we thou...

AMNESTY: IN WHOSE INTEREST?

The Third Mainland Bridge is Africa’s and Nigeria’s longest bridge. Its economic importance and significance to Lagos and indeed to Nigeria cannot be wished away. It was shocking and worrisome to learn that terrorist organisation Boko Haram have come south to Lagos and made the bridge its target. The sect has been responsible for numerous deaths and destruction of property worth hundreds of millions in Naira. A lot of persons have been displaced as a result of the wicked acts of this sect. The administration of President Goodluck Jonathan has had a torrid time dealing with the menace of the group and has thus far remained unsuccessful. Boko Haram is an ideological organization with hard line terrorist operations. It wants or at least is said to want a Sharia state all over northern Nigeria. Having links with other terrorist organizations including Al Qaeda is proof of its outsourcing capabilities. In terms of efficient organization and impact, the sect’s attacks have bee...
