Social Networks and Their Annoyingnesses.



A reader of my blog complained about how annoyed she is at whatsapp messages that arrive her phone. I was not surprised. I get it a lot. Social network is just like that.

1. Facebook's Like and Type Amen. I wonder what people gain these days from facebook likes. I mean, really. Its facebook for wailing out loud, nobody takes it serious. It used to be legit, when people would put up prayers and ask for Amen. But now you can just come on facebook and see a picture of Jesus and am asked to type Amen. Really. Amen to a picture?. Even at times people photoshop really disturbing things or put up disgusting pictures and just say type Amen. I find those picture disturbing. They go to the extent of threatning by saying you will have seven years of badluck if you dont type Amen. No. Really. No.

2. Twitter's unseriousness with everything. Not only is twitter the funniest social network, it has several accounts that are just too unserious just like @Trailerjamshow who just goes around looking for casted souls to air.

3. Tweeters' eagerness to tweet everything. A tweeter is someone on twitter (dont get confused). People just tweet and tweet and tweet stuff that are not sensitive to other people's feelings.

4. Whatsapp and its 'Send to 30 friends, dont break the chain' thing. People just send mass messages of stories and fabricated health information accross and tell you to send it to friends. Not only is this the case, the spellings and words used are always wrong.

5.  Snapchat is too slow

6. Xup. I mean... I hate it when people say xup.

Ok. These are just mine. I cant wait to hear yours

Femi Fani-Kayode: This Dangerous Tweet.



PDP is the opposition party of the country and they have only one job and that is to point out the wrongdoings of the party in power. Of course in a game of politics, anything that does not break the rule goes, therefore, if there is anything the government is not getting right, PDP is supposed to show Nigeria by saying  "Look at the government you voted in and see why you should vote us in next"
Now people like Ben Murray-Bruce, Reno Omokri, Ayo Fayose and Femi fani-Kayode are on twitter 24/7 writing microblogs that is supposed to change this Change. But then, what happens when you go this far?


Olufemi! No! What are you saying? What do you know? Even if you know something, what is your proof?
I do suggest the PDP should warn its members against such so that we dont get to have problems. The tweet has been long deleted though.

London Has Fallen: Many Wrong Things.

From the makers of the breath taking Olympus ha fallen, we got London has fallen.
Now the thing about this life is that people expect you to outdo yourself at all times and a sequel ia supposed to be beyter than its predecessor. That was not the case here but the makers of Olympus and London has fallen did a good job. Yet, a little this and that did a bit of damage.


The over emphasis on the security of the event: In the starting of the movie, We hear a lot of officials saying the same thing over again, emphasizing the need to secure the event, emphasizing the need to secure the President of the United States, emphasizing this and that about security. This gets me thinking, did they think or did they assume that evil always follows such events? Or perhaps the POTUS is a carrier of badluck. After all said and said, nothing is done. I mean, really, you cant tell me the security was tight. So, that is one thing

Again, The british: Really, what was up with the brits? The whole thing is happening in their land! Why does it seem as if they could not care any less if the country was on fire. And why is there no round table in the UK for people to at least sit and put head together?

Then, Why is the black british guy always looking relaxed? Really crept me out.

The terrorist said he was "bringing the war to you". He definitely meant the US. Why wasnt  any security measure taken?

Really, they are many. But i love this movie and its goodness overshadows its mistakes.g

Aisha Buhari:Victim of Transfer of Aggression.

Nigerians are pissed. In fact, unless you are in total ignorance of the current situation, there is no way you can not be pissed. I have mentioned it time without number what we are passing through in the country. Now just imagine what it feels like to Nigerians when Aisha Buhari, Wife of the President (who is not in the country while these happen) launches a book on beauty therapy in the middle of the quagmire. Haba! Haba Aisha! You shouldnt have.
But then is it her fault? I mean is she at fault?.
First of all, Nigerians are angry because they expect her to write a book on Feminism (She's muslim for wailing out loud), or write on the Chibok girls. They said she is insensitive to our condition because she chose to write on beauty therapy instead, and worst of all, launched it on the 2 years anniversary of the Chibok girls abduction.
Do you expect her to write on Chibok? What does she know about that? Did she even know she would ever be first lady... sorry i mean Wife of the president when the Chibok thing happened?. She wrote on where she could, her expertise.
Now its not the fault of Nigerians. The nation is in morass. You just cant expect one of the people supposed to salvage you to be writing books on how to look beautiful. How will i look beautiful under heat? How will i want to look beautiful if my girls have been missing for 2 years? So i have to be angry, so Nigerians just had to be angry. Since the President is not around, his wife becomes toast for all. Now she's been trending on Nigeria's twitter, where she has not been spared.
Now we know the proceeds are going towards the IDPs and Chibok parents etc... I think we should relax. But then Mrs. Buhari, next time, try not to launch the book on a nationally sad day.

Ayo Fayose: For Wailing Out Loud!!!





The governor of Ekiti state Gov. Ayo Fayose has not been such a fan of the current administration, and alongside people like Ben Murray-Bruce and Reno Omokri, he has been 'wailing' against the incumbent leader Muhammadu Buhari and will not give up soon.
But...
He seems to be overdoing it. I mean, he remains a governor under the president and should know his limits. Of course he is not in the same political party as the commander in chief but then, the wailers still know their boundries as an opposition party. Fayose was never in favour of the 2 billion USD loan from China, and he has been reaching out on social media to let everyone know his stand. Good and Fine. What we did not expect was a letter from him to the Chinese government. Really, Gov. Fayose. Really. Did he have the presidential permission to do that? We are not sure. Did he have his party's permission? We stiil are not sure. Now he has left Ekiti to go to China to give press conference to God knows who. He is clearly over doing it. Clearly.

Keep The Change.: The Breath taking write-up.


Ahhhh... Sai baba, sai Buhari, Fire on, Buhari!! These were the words in our mouths almost a year ago when we were fed up with Goodluck Jonathan's 'weak' government. The corruption in the country was running freewheel, the government was almost sleeping, The demonic terror group Boko Haram was almost in posession more lands than the government itself. Yes, GEJ was not your perfect president. Yes, GEJ was weak and powerless and was probably a puppet to godfathers and PATIENCE. So, Nigerians did not want him anymore...
When the 2015 elections came up, people were more than excited. Afterall, they finally had the chance for 'better' governance. Before long, Tinubu, Fashola, Amaechi and friends had formed a coalition party called APC (All progressive Congress) whose only goal was to make sure PDP didnt win elections again. PDP had seen them as childsplay at first, but when the Jonathan government was clearly losing legitimacy, the PDP knew it was not business as usual. I will save you the details of the elections but you know General Muhammadu Buhari was APC candidate. 😩. Really? Buhari?!. Buhari and presidency is like a boring game of cards where there is an A and B playing but A keeps wining. Of course if A keeps wining, B will give up and tell himself "😧I guess i will keep failing" but just for the sake of playing. Then, hope flies in suddenly and boom! B wins a game.
If you didnt put it together yourself, let me do it for you.

Elections is the card game. PDP is A which has been in power since '99 and Buhari himself is B who keeps running for elections under different parties and has been losing, but just keeps running for running sake.

Of course when you run for elections without ambition, you are a recipe for disaster. And #Change was a big one. But not for majority of Nigerians who didnt like the idea of PDPs Transformation policy. They worshipped APC. They saw APC as the messiah that came to save them from the pains of PDP. Now, look at the change they asked for.

The complaints started with the controversial cabinet which in my opinion was a return of big favours and not the fact that people needed for the job were selected. Nigerians began to complain that Amaechi was too controversial to become a minister , Buhari did not listen.

The promises became uncertain probabilities. The #Change people who told Nigerians that they will give lunch to pupils -denied-. The #Change people who told Nigeria that the Chibok girls must be out in a few weeks -denied- The #Change people then said they will give unemployed youths 5k per month -denied-. Nigerians complained about all former promises that either became 'may' or 'might' or 'maybe', Buhari did not listen.

Fighting Corruption. The president was loved by all because according to some people, "Nigerians need a leader who is mad. A mad man who will destroy corruption by all means" so he closed his eyes to every other sector of the country. Most of those he persecuted were PDP. That does not mean APC members are angels. Nigerians complained. Buhari did not listen.

The economy. Let us start with the fact that in as much as you are supposed to change ministers, you cannot compare Adeosun to Okonjo-iweala. If the president wanted a woman to remain the minister of Finance, he would have either retained Okonjo-Iweala or at least gotten somebody good at math... basic math.

Fuel scarcity. I cant even imagine what causes this one. We produce petroleum for crying out loud. A farmer cant just lack soil in a farmland. I honestly dont know why we now have to stay on long queues to get fuel. Promises are being made up and down about when fuel will arrive. People are complaining. Buhari is not listening.

We can not stop counting the problems with the government and this point, we dont like the change we see. If they dont change this #Change soon, the people will have no choice but to change it next elections.

Really, keep the change.
