Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) Presidential Candidate, Mr. Peter Obi, was on Friday told to seek residence elsewhere.

 

“Mr. Peter Obi should be made to understand that he has moved to a burning house and he should seek residence somewhere else. The NDC is a setup of corrupt and crooked politicians who are seeking to use his name to seek relevance. He must leave before dawn. This house is on fire.”

Memorial Day Hoax

Memorial day was marked by many somber celebrations to commemorate the many brave soldiers who gave their lives for America .But, there was a problem with the claim that these brave soldiers died defending America. This is a hoax and a cruel hoax because it is used to justify these soldiers risking their lives, based on a lie. They were not defending America. America has not been attacked since Pearl Harbor in 1941.

America is not defending. Viet Nam did not attack America. Iraq did not attack Am

RIP Democracy

The worst crime of all is genocide, which is defined as the deliberate and systematic destruction, in whole or in part, of a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group. Democracy has failed when both Democrats and Republicans have supported the Israelis genocide against the Palestine men, women and children in Gaza. Even black and white politicians support this genocide. Even worse, black politicians join their white counterparts in supporting Israel’s apartheid regime against the Palestinians

Since the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) primary election of May 29, I have been ruminating on one troubling question: Why are party officials withholding the results of the primary election? Whose interests are these leaders serving?

It is wrong to keep the people in darkness. Democracy is founded on transparency, accountability, and respect for the will of the people. In a true democracy, the collective choice of citizens must prevail over the pecuniary interests of an elitist minority.

Jamaicanism - A Pathway to Prosperity

 

It is painfully obvious that under the present economic system Jamaica will be poor forever. A Jamaica poor forever or A Jamaica poor no more. The choice is perpetual poverty or an end to poverty. The solution is not capitalism. It is not communism. It is not socialism. It is a completely new –ism which is unique to Jamaica, so I call it Jamaic

World crisis

The world is in crisis because most of its leaders are sick, addicted billionaires or wannabe billionaires. Gone are the days when leaders sought to improve the quality of life for their people. Many now, instead of that goal, they are seeking wealth and power. They are even persecuting numbers of their own people to gain more money and power. Actually, they can’t help it because they are  addicted to money and power. The love of money is pervasive. Our leaders certainly do and are even admired

Jamaica’s Downward Economic Spiral

 

Following that Jamaica-poor-forever plan, and despite well -meaning politicians, conditions in Jamaica have gotten worse over the years.  Politicians have gotten a lot of the blame, but it is that economic system that  is responsible. In that system Jamaica’s main source of income, on which she depends so much, exports, have been going downhill.

Chapter 1
Non-developing Countries

 Insanity
Jamaica is not a poor country. We do not have poor countries anymore. Instead we have developing countries. Nice euphemism. So, Jamaica is a developing country. The sad fact is developing countries are not developing and Jamaica is no exception. The greatest problem these countries face is poverty. Do they have a plan to eradicate poverty in five, ten, twenty years or ever? The most likely answer is ever, which in reality means never. It has been a near
