WHO WILL REBUILD UKRAINE?
The West should convert frozen Russian assets, both state's and oligarchs' owned, into a full seizure and set them aside for the future rebuilding of Ukraine. Like the Marshal Plan, call it the Putin Plan.
A HERO IS BORN.
I am staying put. I will not run away and abandon my people. The fight is here in Ukraine. What I need are weapons and ammunitions, not a ride out of town like former Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani - President Volodymyr Zelensky.
IT IS WHAT IT IS.
"There is too much hate in America because there is too much anger in America." - Trevor Noah.
WORD!
A life without challenges is not a life lived at all. A life lived is a life that has problems, confronts problems, solves problems and then learns from problems. - Tunde Fashola.
NOW, YOU KNOW.
When fishing for love, bait with your heart and not your brain, because you cannot rationalize love. - Mark Twain.
JUST THE FACT.
In our country, you can shoot and kill a nigger, but you better not hurt a gay person’s feelings - Dave Chappelle
DO YOU?.

Never get in bed with a woman whose problems are worse than yours. - Chicago PD.
OUR SHARED HUMANITY.
Empathy is at the heart of who we are as human beings. - Cardinal Matthew Kukah.
WORD.
"If you cannot speak the truth when it matters, then nothing else you says matters.” - Tucker Carlson.
#MeToo MOVEMENT: A BAD NEWS GONE CRAZY.
"To all the women who testified, we may have different truth, but I have a great remorse for all of you. I have great remorse for all of the men and women going through this crisis right now in our country. You know, the movement started basically with me, and I think what happened, you know, I was the first example, and now there are thousands of men who are being accused and a regeneration of things that I think none of us understood. I’m not going to say these aren’t great people. I had wonderful times with these people. I’m just genuinely confused. Men are confused about this issue. We are going through this #MeToo movement crisis right now in this country." - Harvey Weinstein.
RON DELLUMS: UNAPOLOGETICALLY RADICAL.
"If it’s radical to oppose the insanity and cruelty of the Vietnam War, if it’s radical to oppose racism and sexism and all other forms of oppression, if it’s radical to want to alleviate poverty, hunger, disease, homelessness, and other forms of human misery, then I’m proud to be called a radical.” - Ron Vernie Dellums.
WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN LIFE - STEVE JOBS
“I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth. Memories precipitated by love is the only true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. The most expensive bed in the world is the sick bed. You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear sickness for you. Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – Life. Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others.” - SJ
EVIL CANNOT BE TRULY DESTROYED.
"The threat of evil is ever present. We can contain it as long as we stay vigilant, but it can never truly be destroyed. - Lorraine Warren (Annabelle, the movie)
ONLY THE POOR WISH THEY HAD STUFF?
“I’m not that interested in material things. As long as I find a good bed that I can sleep in, that’s enough.” - Nicolas Berggruem, the homeless billionaire.

The people of the Niger Delta have been warned not to mount undue pressure or make unnecessary demands on the Acting President, Goodluck Jonathan just because he is from the region. Rather the Niger Delta should cooperate with other Nigerians to ensure he moves the nation forward.
Giving the warning in Abuja was a Niger Delta leader, Chief (Mrs.) Rita-Lori Ogbebor who urged that the acting president be given time to settle down and sort out the problems besetting the entire nation, one after the other.
She explained that the enthronement of the acting president should not be seen from the perspective of the region he comes from but should be seen as circumstantial and a necessity to keep the nation going in the face of social and political logjam created by the long absence of the President.
Chief Ogbebor who is the Igba of Warri, Delta State said this is the time for the Niger Delta elders to sit down and rub minds on how to help their son to succeed as the Acting President instead of shouting, intimidating and threatening fire and brimstone if the issue of the post-amnesty deal is not settled.
Speaking against the backdrop of threats by some militant groups to resume hostility, the business mogul said “I call on our elders in the Niger Delta to come together, sit down and put politics aside because the issue of amnesty arrangement could only work in the atmosphere of peace and cooperation of all.
“Granted the man in the saddle is our man, but then that does not mean we have saddle him with all problems at the same time, we have to put down our anger. We need to give him time and help him to find permanent solutions to the matter. The position he is occupying now is a big challenge to him and all the governors of the Niger Delta”, she stated.
Chief Ogbebor reminded the people that the struggle to install the erstwhile Vice-President as the Acting President was by all Nigerians from all shades of opinion and geo-political zones and therefore his presidency should not be seen as being for the region only.
According to her, the Niger Delta people should not make any inflammatory statement that can overheat the polity saying the recent event of leadership crisis has done enough damage and nothing should be done to compound the situation.
She also challenged the Acting President to take up the challenge and give responsible leadership. “He has to restore credibility and confidence of the people on the government. Many citizens don’t believe government anymore, I will do this, I will do that and at the end of the day there won’t be any action. The government has failed in virtually all fronts; our Acting President now has the opportunity to redeem the government image.”
The South-South leader argued that truly the issue of the Niger Delta is a volatile one and has to be accorded priority more so when President Umaru Yar’Adua had handled the issue to a post amnesty stage. She warned that nothing should be done to take the region back to the crisis era.
