Police or Thief...

Hmmmmm...Wonders they say will never end. We were told as children that the police is your friend. So we engage in the popular chase game called "Police and Thief". The police was the good guy while the thief remains the bad one. Reverse is the case in this part of the world.

The police in Nigeria are full of vices...Bribery, Corruption, Extortion, Wrong arrest, Particulars, Lying under oats and you name it! They got it all. I remembered losing my ID to crooks. I was asked to visit a police station to get a statement of police report. I was offered the report at a discount outside the police station but as a law abiding one, I walked into the station. I got a shocker of my life when I was billed double of the offer outside! Gosh!

Police is your friend...Can someone tell these clowns to please change that line...You dare not report a robbery incident at some police station! You will be locked up as first hand suspect.

Well, this guy was caught in the act...or more so

2014 Lexus IS. Future Car Now!

Lexus has blown the minds of Auto freaks once again with its most recent launch of exotic cars... Lexus IS 2014 series. Wow! The entire machine has been redesigned and given extra features such as extra wheelbase which gives it a muscular and menacing appearance.

The interior of the Lexus IS 2014 is exquisitely designed for extreme comfort. The performance is superb and highly rated above the 2013 Lexus IS with its' 8 speed auto transmission! Wow! Really, no hard shoulders...!

You will be amazed to know that this whole lot with all of its' feature is about $40k! That's one super ride you'd love to have in your fleet.

Don't be surprised if you see me cruising in some days' time with my new machine...Really, I need to review this ride in Africa if Lexus is reading!!!


Nice day ahead folks

Herald the Arrival of The Royal Baby

Babies are gifts from God to mankind. It is nice to know that some babies are born and their destinies are set even before their birth! I was surprised at the amazing welcome of the royal baby! Such display of love and emotions.

Kate and William are just two blessed individuals from the royal family. They have displayed such superb level of humility and friendliness. 'Prince William and Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge, emerged from St. Mary's Hospital in London on Tuesday evening to give the public its first view of the new heir to the British throne, joking that the still-unnamed boy had more hair than his father.' How much love being blown in the air.

One cannot but marvel at the shower of love from the entire British community. The funniest things life throws our ways...Imagine the number of babies born that same day. World over...Kenya, Nigeria, Namibia, Sri-Lanka, India, Pakistan, USA, Belgium, Brazil, South Africa, North Korea & a dozen places where babies were given birth to that same day. Alas, The Royal Baby chose that same day to arrive the world.

How I wish...

Anyway folks, I gotta get back to work or else, I may not get a credit alert next month...

Nice day Folks.

Scourge of Paid Employment

In my years of working in corporate organisations, I have discovered that the employee 'almost always' believes he will get there. Where is 'there'? Uhuru. You are expected to do more in a paid employment. Also, the more you do, the more you have not done! It is called the 'CAN DO' spirit...*hmmmm* This means that you can do all things through whatever means.

I was shocked to learn that the reward for hard work in an organisation is MORE WORK! This shows you as diligent at your assigned and unassigned tasks. One begin to wonder why we still have so many unemployed and yet, seeking to get a white collar job......*modern enslavement*.

I hope I won''t be overtly cynical if I say that a number of organisations, *at least Nigerian owned organisations* now have sharp classes within the organisation, i.e the Rich and the Poor. One factor constant  with the rich is that they get richer and vice versa, the 'poor' get worse off. There is always a sacrificial lamb for the rich to get richer *I meant that literally anyway*...like someone getting fired to cut down on expenses.

What is the end of the matter? *taking a cue from the Holy Books* The rewards of a teacher they say is in heaven. I guess an employee too might just fit in well.

What do you have in your hands? I now champion a school of thoughts that strictly believes that "if you don't leave your work, your work will leave you at a time". *borrowed quote* Learn a trade. Sharpen your inborn skills. Be diligent with your talents. Improve on yourself. Stop searching for jobs. Start working on yourself. You can make it if you really try...but you have to TRY!

Great day folks!

A Note of Thanks to You Nigerians (Re - Nchekube Nwosu-Igbo)

This is a note of thanks for all lovely Nigerians. You guys are greatly appreciated. I could see the statistics of broadcast and shares all over the social medias. Nchekube returned home safe and sound to the glory of God the father. Her sister commented thus:

"Thank you Lord for this beautiful gift of Nchekwube this Easter. It is only by His Grace and heeding to our cries that she is with us hail and hearty. To God be the glory. I guess this has made me appreciate life even more. Thanks to all well meaning Nigerians. Wow, the outpouring of love and concern was overwhelming."

What better friends can one wish for than you guys! Let us keep being the positive force that will fight evil in our land through social media and knowledge sharing.

GidiMetro says Thank You!
