I have watched with amazement the many jubilation that go with political (electoral) victory and consider two vital questions.
Should this celebration be that of victory or responsibility?
Are the opponents enemies?
Please note that no political party in Nigeria is exempted from this malaise.
The rejoicing go on for so long with too many choruses portraying the loser as an enemy.
I wonder, because, this is a call to service and responsibility, so why would celebrate victory?
Victory according to Gandhi is beyond word of mouth; it extends to peace.
Enjoy a great day people, remembering that our actions should spearhead a call of responsibility rather than a celebration of frivolities.

ONCE IN A WHILE: DRIVING HOME SANITY
"I love you Sniper"....
I could not hold myself from these words this morning as I gently stepped into my Kitchen, seeing dozens (isn't this exaggeration?) of cockroaches lying dead.
My point more importantly:
Actions in the head can only strive to drive action in reality, but no further.
It had taken too long to finally opt for the insecticide despite the troubles the insects have caused me. It's been more than a year. It worked, that's my greatest joy. However, this joy is insufficient to gratify months of trouble meted on my foodstuff-cooked and uncooked.
Troubles can continue, if only we allow them.
Stand up and Act on what you believe
Best wishes...DESIRE
Today, a very special friend is celebrating her birthday-using this medium to congratulate her.
