Without taking anything away from Chief Ojo Maduekwe, I think this Indian Dude is doing a far better job of projecting Nigeria's Image positively...I can't but agree with you, my Indian friend...Thank you for standing up for us...

ME, MY DESERT & I
I had gone to the the Library as it was my usual practice back then in 2005 when I was outta school for a while.
After going through the back cover, I became interested enough to read through the book.
Over time, I have learnt that The Great men in history always, have had to do something that was extra-ordinary.
Isaac Jibunoh is one of such men.
Isaac's soul was along the line yearning to be great...to do something different...
He gave a good account of his journey therein...cant remember most of the details right now...but I do remember that he said his car was impounded at an entry point into Nigeria. He came across to the immigration men as a weird one. Instead of being carried shoulder-high as soon as He was sighted, He was being asked series of questions and made to go to Lagos to obtain clearance before he was allowed to drive his car into Nigeria...(I can't remember the details, go read the book)...
Isaac mentioned in his book that his wife was apprehensive of the fact that the Desert was silently calling to him once again...He finally heeded the call and he documented his experiences alongside the account of his first journey...
I got the impression that sir Isaac was done with Desert Exploration but then I read a couple of days ago that the Desert call was too strong to ignore for the Great one again...
I wish him success in his endeavor to make something out of something that is seemingly worthless...

...rather a Blast!
A few days to the commencement of the Spring semester, I told a friend that I would like to serve out my tenure this semester as the President of the Nigerian Students Association with a Bang! ..lol...recent events have underscored that statement! It seems that I'm going to get more than what I initially bargained for...I'm serving out my tenure with a Blast!
A lot has been happening in my school and I'm at the centre of it...More on that later...

Adieu, William F. Buckley Jr.
...grrr grrr(Will's mobile ringing...on the way to heaven)...
Will: hello
Sam:Hi Will
Will: Hi Sam
Sam: Haba, Why did u have to go on ahead to the great beyond at a time like this? You could have waited a while more for me to finish Stained Glass...na wa 4 u o
Will: no vex o...it was the whole election brouhala that got to me...
Sam: ehn, that reminds me...why didn't you want to stay around long enough to know the outcome of the Presidential Elections?
Will: true talk....but you and I know the winner already
Sam: but the elections are still a long way off
Will: yes..but we have a new President in the person of Obama
Sam: Obama? what about McCain, your party's flagbearer?
Will: well, from the voting patterns during the party primaries so far, it is evident that the American People want a change of government and policy...
plus the fact that McCain is favorably disposed to the current American foreign policy of killing the killables and wounding the woundables in Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia and Iran.
Sam: so, what you're saying in essence is that we should look forward to an Obama Presidency
Will: I doubt it cos the Federal Government has concluded plans to give your Prof. Maurice Iwu US Citizenship so that he'll come and conduct the elections...
He has been tested and trusted in the area of Winning Delivery...
Sam: You dey take style insult an accomplished pharmacist of repute
Will:(cuts in) and an accomplished election fixer as well so that McCain will be declared the winner
Sam: I no follow u talk again... at least it wasnt Iwu that fixed the elections of 2000 for Bush
Will: yeah, rite but my country shops for the best in every sphere...so it is imperative that at this point in time, he should come and be drafted to employ the tactics he used in 2007 to the forthcoming elections between McCain, Obama and Ralph Nader..
Sam: I've heard you...Please tell Baba Eleran, my grandpa and my dad that I miss them o
Will: I will
Sam: Yuz yil sonra gorusuruz
Will: bye, till then

D`banj
Sometimes last week, a friend asked me if İ had seen d video of `booty call` by D`banj and İ replied in the negative. Pronto, İ logged onto youtube and İ was amazed at the quality of the video.
For those of you who have a problem with `booties`, try convincing sure u aren`t okobos*?...lol...
İ have been searching for the name of the creative mind behind that video who shot A fantastic video for an otherwise lewd song without success.
Biraz once*, İ logged on to the website of Mo Hits Records and İ was disappointed.
İt is one thing to have a web presence and another thing altogether to have a functional dynamic one.
İ would say Link 01. D`KOKO MASTER` is a disappointing piece. D`banj deserves a much better profile than that...
The subsequent links didn`t fare better
İ like the Macromedia Flash Layout but a lot still has to be done to improve the site to make it a one-stop information centre for all D`banj and Mo Hits Records fans worldwide.
*okobo-Yoruba expression for one that is impotent
*biraz once-Turkish expression for a while ago

Well...
Well..İ wouldn`t know what is making my fingers itchy to blog this evening..
First of all, İ would like to say a big thank you to everybody who came around to felicitate with me on my birthday...İ promise youö you`d have more fun next year. İ`d also like to apologise to all those of you that didn`t get the invitation to come round...İm sorry İ made you miss out on the fun...
Secondly, İ would like to register my frustration officially about the outster of the Super Eagles.
Those boys didn`t know what it took me to get to watch the ACN online...
There is a cliche that says that a prophet is not recognised in his own country...A man is a man irrespective of whether he is black or white, İraqi or Malaysian...İ think it is pretty clear to everybody out there that Berti Vogts is a failure. İn previous outings, the Super Eagles has perfomed much more better under the tutelage of so-called Local Coaches...
İ would implore the stakeholders of Nigerian football to prevail on the NFA to look inwards for a good Coach/Technical Director and give him a good working contract. İt is high time we stopped believing in white-witch doctors.
