Better than Nollywood

Nigeria is a good country, blessed with so many resources that needs to be harnessed to bring out best results and probably help us achieve our over ambitious and doubtless unrealistic goals and targets. However, the degree of misappropriation cannot be overemphasized.
Who takes the blame?
A question that can turn an active individual to a psychiatric patient overnight, not because he/she ponders too much but because of the regrets and burden that trails the discoveries.
Just according to a project management expert disclosed that the degree of project management is really poor in Government circles in Nigeria.
The degree, which is a function of project planning, execution and post execution stages, is really a form of charade in Nigeria.
NOLLYWOOD, Nigeria’s film industry (please correct me if I am wrong) is according to some the biggest in Africa, therefore they should have the best equipment for motion pictures right?
But I have seen another institution that has better cameras than them- THE NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT.
This institution (all tiers) is very good in what we know as FILM TRICKS. Their cameras capture uncompleted projects as though they are more than completed, especially buildings and roads. I guess they have the best of DOP(Director of Photography).
I was at a site one day in the morning, later that day as I sat to watch the news of the day, I saw this same building been advertized on TV and the glory accorded to the administrator (I mean the political actor). I thought I was dreaming, because what I saw at the site was completely different from the TV “reality”.
I am forced to question myself- who is in charge of that video? Journalists or Government-sponsored DOP? They are so perfect that they make me remember the movies of “JET LIE”.
I think NOLLYWOOD should borrow, or buy or seek collaboration with these film makers who will soon push them out of the market, because their “movies” are excellent, I think only HOLLYWOOD can compare to them.
These cameras are surely better than NOLLYWOOD’S.

Ironical story. Read and advice

One fateful day, my dad sent me to deliver a letter to a Lecturer. He gave me a new #100 note but I also had another #100 note. On my way I dipped both the money my had given me and the letter into my back pocket, not knowing the money found its way into the sealed letter. When I was to pay for the trip, I couldn't find the money, so I paid with my own, later I reasoned that the money was with the Lecturer. How do I collect back the money? The Lecturer might be thinking my Dad bribed him with #100 note, how do I live with this?

Politics: Cross-carpeting

This is one area i hate to delve into but with recent developments i think i have an opinion.
Nigeria's democracy is still shying away from responsibilities and until this happens there would be but little progress.
The fact that a wife offends her husband is not a call for divorce and re-marriage if not the world would be full with DIVORCEES.
This should bring sense to our leaders.
If they cannot manage intra-party conflicts, but see cross-carpeting as the only option, then it is rather unfortunate.
They should learn how to face their offenders, reconcile and move this nation forward, that is the solution and not just increasing the number of political caricatures called parties.

The unbecoming of becoming...

Seems like play on words but not so....
Becoming anything simply means taking a step (either backward or forward)..
This steps entails doing things the right way or otherwise.
If you do it the right way, then you are free from this topic but not otherwise.
Become the best that you are the right way...
Don't follow Machiavellian theory THE END JUSTIFIES THE MEANS...

Who's my mate?

In one Bible study class in my church, someone raised a suggestion about our imaginations.
Most times when we see people we say, he/she is was my class mate
He said, No! Nobody is no one's mate in this world, because your mate might be at the top while you are down and vice versa.
When I got home, I thought about it and felt I should share this-
You have no mate, no equal...
The best you can be of someone is second-best....
You are who you are....

The new month

Most people believe that 7 is a number that signifies PERFECTION.
How true is this assertion?
What makes a month perfect?
The power to make anything perfect lies with your ability to become the perfection of the substance needed to execute your will.
This new month as we call it is not perfect because it is just a common phenomenon.
Perfection may come through making a common phenomenon uncommon...
Have fun...

Culture or Civilization

The former is a stage, or rather a state, while the other is an advancement.
Which one do you choose?
Are you cultured or civilized?
This choice is full of intricacies- Choose right.
No principle is constant, only the basis for that principle is constant.
Get civilized.

Reconciliation

You probably believe that sorry is a sign of humility but some say it is a sign of weakness. How do we reconcile this?

Product Life cycle

The life cycle of a mere product is of importance to entrepreneurs. Why? Help me out

WORK DONE

In my place of engagement, my boss once told me-
Do the little you can do adequately,
But I was bent on doing everything possible within the shortest time...
The end?
Disaster...
Lots of mistakes
I have to go all over again to correct my wrongs..
Same as Total Quality Management...
TQM ensures quality rather than quantity
Do your best... even if it is little
It is better...

Pulchritude

A friend once asked me the meaning. My response was quite shocking to him- i answered almost immediately. That's what technology can do.
However, the context is quite different.
Aesthetics
What do you feel about beauty?
No...no...no
I don't mean ladies...
I mean NATURE
Oh no we can't divorce nature from humans
However we will continue......................

Leadership, readership...

When you read, you create more opportunities to lead right.
Leadership hence is a function of readership.
What do you read?
What you read determines to a great extent who you lead.
Read right: lead right!

Challenges

Do they actually make you strong?
Your response to challenges matter (i.e. how you deal with it).
Your problems as I said earlier are like mirage, run face them headlong, and they disappear.

SUCCESS

Success is not for always...

History

Nigeria is going forward.... changes must surely take place. Where will be your place after all of this? Join the winning team as MTN says, but this time not for football but the polity, risks associated with Nigeria. Nigeria is going and no one can stop a moving train with bare hands. There will be a stop soon, join if you think what i think, see what i see, feel what i feel, and know what i know..... We will see at the top

Our leaders are not the problem...

This caption hit my heart by inspiration- our leaders are not the problem; we are the problem solvers.
Can you just imagine. I argued back and forth concerning this, but I later realized it's true.

Goodluck Jonathan is not Nigeria's problem, we can make things work out the way they should...
