As far as public money is concerned in Nigeria, the word MISSING has taken on a whole new sinister meaning. Every day, it is one massive amount (usually in billions, soon to graduate into trillions) of money missing from the coffers of one government ministry/department/agency or the other. The states are not left out and I bet the local government are only able to keep a lid on it because the torch is not shone on them, and we tend to underestimate the fraud and theft going on in these other tw

Sheen once said, “If the bringing of children into the world is today an economic burden, it is because the social system is inadequate; and not because God’s law is wrong. Therefore the State should remove the causes of that burden. The human must not be limited and controlled to fit the economic, but the economic must be expanded to fit the human.”

Bishop Sheen saw the argument of the state for abortion was quite jaded and irresponsible. Witho

Leaving Meat Behind and Going Vegan

Eliminating animal use from your life can seem quite straightforward at times, while at others it may seem challenging. For instance, opting out of animal use in entertainment is as simple as not supporting activities that use animals (zoos, circuses, rodeos, etc.). However, once you start looking at food and clothing labels, it can be surprising how many of them use some sort of animal product.

This is not the Africa often written about, the Africa of poverty, the Africa of HIV/AIDS, the Africa of conflict. There is an Africa not spoken of enough, that is the Africa that is changing, the Africa of opportunity, where people are looking for major partnerships, and investors.

Passing of Chinua Achebe 

Chinua you’ve passed away I hear 
So suddenly I can’t believe it 
Because you are so much needed

So many important things 
Like that things fall apart 
Things which have become corrupted 
Because of colonialism 
Things that fell apart
