  1. It is a reflection of who Nigerians are.....inability to look into the future...the NOW is what concerns them....that is why the future of our children are in doubt.....once the stomach is full...nothing matters......wheter goverment is currupt o, whether its unfair o...iit doesnt matter...they will settle for peanuts when they can fight for the whole nine yards.....

  2. Seeing the good in a bad situation! Every disappointment is a blessing in disguise!

  13. Haha. Misery now becomes convenience right? Now I understand why Gandhi said: "To a man with an empty stomach, food is God...There are people in the world so hungry that God cannot appear to them except in the form of bread."

  33. I commend every donor who has shown concern to the flood victims. However, this statement shows the extent of hunger in the land. it shows how short sighted our youths are. once they can feed{eat food} in any given situation, that is all there is in life for them. No self aspiration for greater things apart from food. This is the position the government has put us. God will help us all.

  47. Welcome back BONARIO.....
    This is so so sad, if only our leaders will hear this. This statement shows that they are not impacting anything positive in the lives of the people. They better call themselves to order before there will be a repeat of what Rawlings did in Ghana some years back in Nigeria.
