A Russian saw me in my office and said where are you from , i said am from the greatest country in the world.He looked at me with a very strange look and said let me guess u are from Nigeria , i said yes. Out of curiosity he said considering whats happening in your country now why would you say shes the best in the world and i asked him to sit down and let me tell him what he and most people dont not know about Great Nigeria and i told him these.......
1. Are you aware that all over the world Nigerians are setting the pace and becoming the standard by
which others measure themselves? Do you know??
2. In the US, Nigerians are the most educated immigrant community. Type it into Google and you’ll see it. Not one of the most educated, the most educated.
3. 60% of Nigerians in the US have college degrees. This is far above the American national average of 30%.
4. Nigerians in US are one of the highest earners, typically
earning 25% more than the median US income of $53k.
5. In Ivy League schools in Europe and America, Nigerians routinely outperform their peers from other nations.
6. A Nigerian family, The Imafidon family, have officially been named vvv GB 45 family in the UK.
7. The designer of the famous car, Chevrolet Volt, Jelani Aliyu, is a super
talented Nigerian from Sokoto State.
8. The World’s fastest supercomputer was designed by a world renowned inventor and scientist, Philip Emeagwali, a full-blown Nigerian whose pat ency was awarded in 2015. This means Nigeria has the pat ency to the world’s fastest computer: a Nigerian.
9. The wealthiest Black man and woman on earth are
Nigerians, Aliko Dangote and Mrs. Folorunsho Alakija. Both have no trace of criminal record of any kind.
10. South Africa couldn’t have ended apartheid & achieved Black rule if not for
the leadership role Nigeria played.
11. Of the 3 South African Presidents who ruled after apartheid, two of them once
lived in Nigeria under asylum. Both Nelson Mandela (60s) and Thabo Mbeki (70s) lived in Nigeria before becoming President
of South Africa.
We gave financial support, human support, boycotted an Olympics and our politicians, musicians and activists campaigned relentlessly.
12. Nigeria spent over $3 Billion and lost hundreds of soldiers to end the wars in both Liberia and Sierra
Leone which the world ignored because they have no oil.
13. When there was a coup in São Tomé and Príncipe in 2003, Nigeria restored the
elected President back to power.
14. Before there were street lights in European cities, ancient Benin kingdom
had street lights fueled by palm oil.
15. 500 years ago, Benin casted metal alloys to create magnificent art including the world famous Queen Ida Mask.
16. Amina was a warrior queen who ruled Zaria Emirate in Kaduna state,
Northwestern Nigeria 400 years ago in 1610. Google and see what she means to
Africa.
17. We gave monetary gifts to Ireland during our oil boom and
built a statue for France free of charge. We are not poor blacks. Nigeria is rich and don’t be lied to.
18. The first television station in Africa was NTA Ibadan (1960) long before
Ireland has their RTE station.........
Wherever you look in this great country, Nigeria, heroes abound both now and in our recent and ancient past. If all you do is listen to mainstream Western media, you’ll not get the full & true picture of your Nigerian heritage.
Do not listen to any leader who says Nigerians are criminals, no matter who he
is, or his height and position.
We’re not a nation of scammers, drugs & corruption, but a people with a verifiable track record of greatness........
Here is what CNN, BBC, Aljezeera and western media will not tell you about Nigerians:
19. On the 7th of May, 2016 at Howard University in Washington D.C history was
made. Out of 96 graduating Doctor of Pharmacy candidates, 43 of them were
Nigerians and out of 27 awards given, 16 went to Nigerians. The entire world still envies our uniqueness as a NATION, living together despite our ethnic diversity. One single country with over 400 languages. They will only tell you how Nigerians are scammers and cheats, how Nigerians are into drugs overseas. If you don’t blow your trumpet, no one will blow it for you.
VIVA NAIJA!!!
20. There are over 180,000,000 Nigerians world over and only about 250,000 of this figure have traceable criminal records. This is about 0.14% of our entire national population in the last 20 years: nothing close to 1%. Shame on global
media.
Listen Nigeria, don't let anybody woo you into believing that you are a criminal just because you are a Nigerian.
Nigerians are NOT criminals. You are NOT a criminal.
You are topnotch; second to none around the world.
I am proud am created a Nigerian, thank you God. Be proud of Nigeria wherever you go. Take out your Passport with pride. He couldnt talk and just walked away. Am proud to be a Nigerian and be from that country.... God bless Federal Republic Of Great Nigeria.
Please Continue Sharing This....Until all Nigerians see it!

*BOLA AHMED TIBUNU, THE JAGABAN OF NIGERIA POLITICS, WHERE IS YOUR JAGABANISM IN EDUCATION?*
By: ISHOLA OLADAPO
(Ennykings)
07030255890
Dear Baba Asiwaju, the Jagaban of Lagos state and the leader of the ruling party of Nigeria, how are you sir? Hope the ministry is moving as planned?
It is no more gain saying that Tinubu is one of the biggest political leaders in Nigeria and in Africa at large, with immense participations in governmental affairs from being a distinguished senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to being the executive governor of Lagos state. Tinubu, a man of respected dignitary and mighty political prowess, who happen to be the Chancellor of the respected one time best state university of Ladoke Akintoka University of Technology, is a father and a politico-god many students and political aspirants look up to as a great role model when it comes to governmental politics. Despite all this mighty appraisals, baba Asiwaju to every LAUTECH student in nothing but a puppeteer and a cartoonist character in the face of educational intervention.
It is such a pity, a man of his accolade has no futural plan for education or do I say he has no human feelings towards the life of LAUTECH scholars and the staff. Ever since Asiwaju became chancellor of the school, no single project has been erected or instructed to be proposed neither did he ever step into the school where he was suppose to represent the education sector by visiting it and making a great impact.
Baba Asiwaju sir, we all know that you are a god, and a great grandfather in Nigeria politics and we have seen you in many occasions preach the gospel of good governance through education advocacy in Nigeria, you are even known as Jagaban because you posed and wanted to rule like the real progenitor of the Yoruba ancestry Baba Awolowo, but unfortunately you can never live his legacy because you are a failure in the education sector.
Asiwaju, where have you been ever since two of your boys "Governor Ajimobi of Oyo and Aregbesola" of Osun have been meandering and bastardizing the life of ladokites and all LAUTECH staff by denying them their constitutional rights? Could it have been that your political authority is not strong enough to talk sense into your little ones? Or you have just chosen to allow them kill the future of these brilliant scholars because you don't want them to ascend the political seats you have kept for your grandchildren? Oh what a great dismay, with all your glitters and golds ranging from your latest $60Million and your N120billion property in Lekki amongst others with the national cakes from many angles, even some Forbes has rated you to be the richest politician after General Ibrahim Babangida.
All LAUTECH need is financial intervention of N8Billion which we know its very negligible compared to your ever lasting wealth, please show us your philanthropic face and help our future. Don't leave us to perish when we know you can singlehandedly solve our financial problems for our school to be great again.
How much is 8Billion naira in your account sir, that you can't just simply send into the purse of LAUTECH for smooth sailing. Anyways this is a double sign against your personality, we sure do know that very soon you will come to Ogbomoso soil to canvas for votes for your aspirants, then you will be remembered that students have suffered a great ordeal as a result of your negligence.
Baba Asiwaju, we urge you, please let us see your Jagabanism in education, please Jagabanise our school to resuscitate the dying institution, for this we will forever remember you, at this crucial point of our life when many has committed suicide due to societal frustration caused by incessant strike actions, varsity workers tuned beggars amongst others.
History will forever have it, your impact towards the lives of LAUTECH lads and workers. I have not written this to bastardise you, but to quickly come in to rescue us for your boys in Osun and Oyo are ready to kill us.

THAT KIND OF WOMAN
THAT KIND OF WOMAN
.
Permit me to share this little story with you, I'm sure it will bless you.
.
Sometimes ago, a man went with his wife in their car to a fuel station, while they were buying the fuel, the man discovered that it was the wife's ex boyfriend that is attending to them, He then smiled and turned to his wife and said, "you would have ended up marrying that petrol attendant", but the wife smiled and said, "if I had married him, He will be the one sitting by the steering of the car"
.
BOOM!!!
.
Now this woman understands the power of a woman, she gets it! She knows who she is and she knows that a genuine and Real woman has in her the capacity to produce much out of little.
.
Pls pay attention to this:
.
There is a kind of woman a man will marry and He will never end up poor, not because she has millions, but because she has the true wealth within her...Wisdom. Be that kind of woman
.
There is a kind of woman a man will marry and He will experience peace till death, irrespective of the storms of life.
Be that kind of woman.
.
There is a kind of woman whose battles are fought on her knees and her enemies are known by her, not her husband, or even her kids, but the devil himself knows and is scared of her. Be that kind of woman.
.
There is a kind of woman whose hands have been trained for various enterprise, skillful in business and never lazy. Be that kind of woman.
.
There is a kind of woman who is aware that a woman can lead in all other sectors of life except the home, though a Prof but yet, unconditionally submissive at home. Be that kind of woman.
.
See,
There is a kind of woman a Real Man won't see and then imagine sex instantly, he sees her and thinks of a Home. Be that kind of woman.
.
There is a kind of woman a man will have to begin and cultivate a relationship with God before he can get to her. I urge you, be that kind of woman.
.
Never underestimate your power as a woman. Don't be reduced to nothing and worthless by meaningless singers out there that think you are men's problem or equivalent to money or sex.. There is more to you than meet the eye.
.
Stay in God's words, the Real Man meant for you will find you in it!

Nigeria's ailing President Buhari misses third cabinet meeting
Nigeria's President Muhammadu Buhari has missed his third cabinet meeting in a row amid ongoing questions about the state of his health.
In her tweets, Mrs Buhari said that the president was continuing to "carry out his responsibilities" and has been meeting with ministers.
Information Minister Lai Mohammed told the BBC that the president's health was "a personal matter" and that Nigerians have been kept aware of his condition.
A former governor of Niger State, Babangida Aliyu, and his ex-chief of staff, Umar Nasko, have been granted bail by the Minna High Court.
Both men had been remanded in prison by the court on Tuesday last week after the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission arraigned them on charges of corruption and fraud.
The former governor was accused in the third charge of dishonestly converting to personal use over N1.725bm belonging to Niger State Government to personal use from Zenith Bank contrary to section 311 of penal code and punishable under section 304.
Nollywood actress, Adesua Etomi, took to her Instagram page to announce her engagement to Olubankole Wellington, popularly known as Banky W.
Well, the wait is finally over as the two pledge their love on their social media handles. Banky W could not also contain his emotions, as he wrote a lengthy message to her…
“Dear Susu (part II) In that time, I got engaged to you in my “made for you” music video and by pure coincidence, we both got cast to get married in the wedding party movie.. but all the while we were the very best of friends. I guess, in our case, real life will now imitate art."

Nigeria stifling press freedom – Amnesty International
Amnesty International said, “An escalating spate of arrests of journalists and intimidation of bloggers as well as the violent crushing of peaceful protests across Nigeria shows the authorities’ determination to suppress the right to freedom of expression.
Amnesty urged the federal and state governments to respect international human rights law and the Nigerian constitution by protecting the right to freedom of expression and press freedom.
“The security forces have also consistently used excessive force and intimidation to crack down on Nigerians exercising their right to freedom of peaceful assembly.”

Boko Haram's leader Abubakar Shekau has been injured and one of his deputies killed in an air strike in northeast Nigeria, civilian and security sources told AFP on Wednesday.
Two Nigerian Air Force jets bombarded fighters who had gathered for prayers in Balla village, some 40 kilometres (25 miles) from Damboa, on the edge of the Sambisa Forest, last Friday.

Southern Kaduna asks el-Rufai to resign
The apex Southern Kaduna socio-cultural body, Southern Kaduna Peoples Union, has advised Kaduna State Governor, Nasir el-Rufai, to resign if he cannot stop the crisis in the region.

Article
In 1896, Thomas Edison, the great inventor who invented the electric bulb, was working on an idea to design a car when he heard that a young man who worked in his company had created an experimental car.
Edison met the youngman at his company's party in New York and interviewed him about the car. He was impressed! He had the same idea as the young man but he was considering electricity as the power source while the young man used a gasoline engine to power the car. He slammed his fist down and shouted "young man, that's the thing! You have it! ... I think you are on to something! I encourage you to continue your pursuits!" With these words of encouragement from the most highly respected inventor in the United States at that time, HENRY Ford continued his work, invented a car and became wealthy.
On december 9, 1914, Thomas Edison's laboratory and factory got burnt. He was 67years old and the damage was too extensive for insurance cover. Before the ashes were cold, Henry Ford handed Edison a cheque of $750,000 with a note saying that Edison could have more if he needed it!
In 1916, Henry Ford relocated his home to the building next to Edison's home and when Edison couldn't walk and was confined to a wheelchair by his doctors, Henry Ford also bought himself a wheelchair so that he could run wheelchair races with his friend and mentor!
Thomas Edison made Henry Ford believe in himself and got a friend for life!
LESSON:
**Don't ever be jealous of other people's success. If you can't win a race, help the person in front of you to break the record!
**Putting out the candle light of your neighbour in the dark will never increase the brightness of yours.
**Your candle will not lose its light when it lights up another candle!
**Getting the job done is more important than who gets the glory.
This article is for you and me! Yes, you and me!
Be inspired, speak positively into someone's life today, and possibly save a soul.
