Kingdom of heaven on earth
Last week I travelling through the busiest route in the country, Lagos – Ibadan Express route, within a flash, I discovered something I have always seen, which is the title of this blog…Kingdom of heaven on earth, well a good omen, I presumed, further details and observation, applying my heart and inclining my heart, I discovered that the kingdom of heaven was posed also in the Good Book, which is also what I saw, my thought went further deep and I thought to myself, if all the Bible offered •̸Ϟ ̷̷̴̐͠€ in the good book- Bible was about the gold and the river and ornaments that I can’t comprehend and imagine in full entity and also confirmed by sign and wonders through sent and emerged prophets and saints; then if all I saw in the kingdom along ibadan expressway was Mango trees, sorry maybe an oak tree, impossible, oak tree in those kind of places, they would be organised, planted common trees I have seen in the public square, Akin!!! Be nice, maybe in central park in New York, then I would prefer the kingdom of Saudi or the plains and kingdom of UAE, especially Dubai as a kingdom I would live and die for…
I remembered while I was young when technology has not been advanced in this country, when a land line telephone was for the few and when blackberry, IPad or galaxy ideas was only conceived…just dreams- let •̸Ϟ ̷̷̴̐͠€ justs say when fruits were never used in technology…you know, a man called Guru Marajhi airing on LTV or OGTV back then, in an instant I connected the place I saw in Ibadan with him- His kingdom of Heaven on Earth is still there, still the same place, just little horticulture practice was added to beautify the place, if u are reading this and have the same faith as him, am not sorry to write only grateful I remembered to be able to understand what I watched on TV when I was young and the realities that exist in the world today with this explosive and expansive ideas and Knowledge… The most worthy book has an excerpt… People perish by lack of knowledge and let’s examine the difference many would have believed it and died at least for the years they have they should be living in that kingdom…abi na, I no dey lie, logically…for me one kingdom was told about a patriarch in Books that has been for a long time, Abraham, father of all Nations who seek and search for a kingdom that was built without hands, that I can imagine and with the results I have seen about the kingdom that he was seeking for and the messages, readings and careful study I saw that it was hopeful to believe this such ideas, knowledge and relate to the future. So Alas! Let •̸Ϟ ̷̷̴̐͠€ conclude…follow the right thing and believe the right words.
When someone tells you what you don’t like, that doesn’t make him or her wrong?
I might be wrong but I doubt it!!!

ELECTION : COURAGE OR DISAPPOINTMENT
Been a while i wrote my blog but neccessary at this moment, Not everybody expected the adjournment of the election, but it came as a bang on the walls of the nations. Even thou we are all disaapointed that a precious day in our lives to make a meagre profit to feed our homes, buy ourselves a drink in the evening or just find a bit of our pursuit of happiness that could be fulfilled by money accomplished… We waited in the scourching sun hoping to cast our votes, but halted by reasons well known to those in charge-but one man we know, Professor Jega, a man that has proven his integrity before and stood by it, he showed courage beyond no man has done for a long time in this nation. We hope not to find this act of courage in every leader we elect or appoint to stop or halt when things are not right and not well prefected. Some Nigerians are dissapointed but I salute this courage beyond the fulfillment of any governance i have seen in this country…Nigeria Decides again on Monday, ReVoDa would be activated again on my Phone, we would be tweeting again.
I cant get tired of tomorrow staying in the scorching sun because i am that tomorrow…we Decide again
NWR/POLICE REPORT: The Real State of the Nigerian Police.
I have never been dazzled witnessing but amazed that such acts are perpetrated somewhere along Ibadan- Oyo- Ilorin route, Along Shagamu -Benin route, Onitsha-Enugu route, the police are collecting 20/50 naira notes from Bus drivers under the disguise of aiding security also in the villages, main towns and cities extortion, embezzlement and other corrupt practices likewise arbitrary arrest and unlawful detention to threats and acts of violence, including physical and sexual assaults, torture and even extra-judicial killings.
I can understand the worries of the PPRC, National Headquarters personnel, (his name I cant remember) but we do understand that he his the face of the police and he wants to keep his job and other things known to him, the Human Right Watch Report which was released when he made a comment that its not fair, his babbling words are less than the truth that is reported, He could have used the opportunity to talk that about the measures they are taken to stop the actions by the police. By observation we know that the situation keeps getting worse each day leading to accidents and unwanted events, the recently catastrophic accident which occurred at Lagos -Ibadan expressway before Berger is an indication about the perpetuals act and has exposed the actions of the disguise of the Nigerian Policemen.
But the study carried out coupled with the current reports that Nigerian faces with the Police men on every route and within the Metropolis, its not farfetched that the report stated the most critical state of the police that bribery,corruption and kickbacks has been institutionalized and endorsed from the National HQ.
You can read the excerpt of the report below:
United States-based human rights body, Human Rights Watch (HRW), yesterday released a report in which it identified the Nigeria Police as the most corrupt government institution, the effects of which a community of civil society organisations said, would undermine the 2011 General Elections.
This was revealed at the Lagos Airport Hotel, Ikeja where the organisation presented a 102-page report titled “Everyone in on the Game: Corruption and Human Rights Abuses by the Nigeria Police Force,” citing police corruption, arbitrariness and extra-judicial killings as threats to credible elections.
Giving an insight into the report, Guttschuss said the police were used by politicians in Nigeria to achieve their private agendas as evident in the 2007 General Elections characterised by arbitrariness, violence and brutality, saying overbearing political influence in Nigeria threaten future elections.
He said credible elections “are not likely if the control of the Nigeria Police remains in the hand of politicians because police are used to rig 2007 elections. The control of the police should be taken from the politicians while professionals should be allowed to manage the country’s police affairs. Unless the police are rescued from partisan control, all efforts to ensure effective reforms will be in vain.”
The report x-rayed how extortion, embezzlement and other corrupt practices in the police “undermine the fundamental human rights. The most direct effect of police corruption on ordinary citizens stems from myriad of human rights abuses committed by police officers in the process of extorting money.
“The abuses range from arbitrary arrest and unlawful detention to threats and acts of violence, including physical and sexual assaults, torture and even extra-judicial killings, but many police officers conduct themselves in an exemplary manner, working in difficult and often dangerous conditions,” the report said.
