This is a meaningful thread to start the day with, though it would take more than four paragraphs to fix the decay in written English amongst Nigerians today.

I am even more concerned about the decline in individual intelligence amongst young people. Youth are afraid to examine evidence and analyse issues logically, instead, they outsource intelligence to ‘influencers’ , many of whom are school dropouts, jesters and people who cannot hold a conversation in real life.
I saw comments on Instablog 10 minutes after the news of Trump’s shooting was reported, and all the comments were “it’s a skit’’.
Until a few years ago, Nigerians were known to be the smartest people in the world, and that is why the smears of fraud, corruption, trafficking etc do not stick on us when we excel internationally. But if with the above, we now have a new generation of Nigerians with the collective intelligence of sea sponges, then we are in trouble.

No experience, no faith, no morals, no grammar, no brakes, no gear, no sense!



And In the latter times, some will refuse to endure sound doctrine.

So English is a sign of intelligence..ok.

This is commendable. This will curb criminals robbing with POS .

Bonny is Igboland. Stop dreaming. Biafra will soon be independent courtesy of Simon Ekpa, the Biafran Prime Minister and a simple referendum amongst the Bonny population will determine where Bonny people want to belong to, either to Igbo region or to Ijaw region of Biafra.

Shut ur gutter .I'm full born bonny and we can never be igbo .na by force ? We remain ijaw .my name is Tamunosa

Note Fubara is a riverine man
And has the people backing

THE LEADER; POWER, AND THE PEOPLE.

Every single Governor of Rivers State since 1999 has maintained power and influence on the backs of their popularity and support amongst the people.

Rivers People naturally gravitate towards leaders who fight oppressors. They build an alligence with such a leader and become his strength and protection.

From former Governor Odili, whose popularity grew mostly based on his benevolence to various sects and groups in the state - Some of his biggest beneficiaries were Churches, Women, and community groups.

“Odili Yeh Yeh Yeh Yeh Yeh” was a popular tune on the streets of Port Harcourt.

For those who were in Port Harcourt on that faithful Friday on the 26th of October, 2007 when the “I believe” mantra was made manifest with the landmark Supreme Court judgment that ordered the immediate swearing in of Rt Hon Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi as Governor of Rivers State, you would agree with me that there was an eruption on the streets of Port Harcourt.

Rivers people stuck with Amaechi after the K-Leg saga. They took sides with the oppressed against the oppressor and for a couple of years, Amaechi enjoyed the support of the people until he lost it when he went against Goodluck Jonathan whom the people also supported.

In 2013, Chief E.N. Wike led the charge in the people’s quest against Amaechi’s antagonist slurs on “our brother” GEJ.

Wike enjoyed the support of the people easily. He was our knight in shining Amour. In 2015, ensuring Wike’s victory was like a duty the people owed to God, especially coming from a presidential election where it was assumed that our brother GEJ was rigged out.

Former Governor Wike lost at the election tribunal and the Court of Appeal but on the faithful Wednesday evening on the 27th of January 2016 when news filtered in that Chief Wike had won at the Supreme Court, the streets of Port Harcourt were flooded. Gov Wike drove along Ikwerre Road, standing out of the sunroof of his black Lexus Jeep to the admiration of the people.

It was a mini carnival!

From the reruns of 2016 to the notoriety of Akin Fakorode and the Men of the FSARS, the hostility of the Federal Government, and the elections of 2019, Former Governor Wike had the People of Rivers State as the wind under his sail.

The fact is, every Rivers State Governor has become powerful because of the people and not based on their own strength. And this is why when the people left Odili for Amaechi, Amaechi triumphed. When they left Amaechi for Wike, Wike became untouchable and unstoppable.

It has been the people always.

Not the political class but the people.

There is a quote that says that a leader who leads without the people following, is only taking a walk.

Most times, it is easy for leaders to mistake the strength and support they’ve enjoyed from the people over time to pass as theirs and the result of their sole effort.

As it stands today, Governor Sim enjoys the support of Rivers People across board. The reason is not far-fetched. It is for the same reason they stood with Amaechi in 2007, 2011, with Wike in 2013, 2015, 2019, etc.

Leaders should know that what the people gave you freely in your time, they’d give to another in their time as they gave in the time of those who came before you.

Vox Populi, Vox Dei

Referred others to her .no single bad news .they have also been recommending there's .there is something you are not telling us . The Maureen I know is not hidden .she is keen about her supplies .

Useless mofos always ready to say bad about your country. Nigeria's navy control is so far highly commendable.

The action and surveillance has reduced theft and piracy on the gulf of Guinea.

No be me go lecture you with facts, Google is your friend.

U could air your views without insult brother . I never insulted you.

When will Nigeria get to this level of swift response both on land and sea ?

Do sport Arbitrage if you don't know about it drop a message for me..

If you are looking for long term gain and discipline you can get 70% profit of your 200k monthly..

I do this with ease everyday and it doesn't take time at all. I stake in the morning around 4am and late in the night for midnight games. I'll tell you what to look out for and what not do.
