Increasing numbers of Private Jet Owners in Nigeria, Proceed Honest Businesses or Corruption? Or a Good Economy?

President Jonathan, Private Jets & Nigerian Economy (1)

By Magnus Onyeibe

President Goodluck Jonathan’s reference to the increasing number of private jets (PJs) in Nigeria (150) as a symbol of a growing economy during his campaign stomp was pooh poohed by his political opponents who see PJs as evidence of corruption by oil subsidy barons. Although, there is strong merit in Mr president’s postulation about PJs being positive reflection of a dynamic economy under his watch.Unfortunately, he has not properly contextualized it hence APC’s position that PJs are the symbol of alleged Jonathan’s mal administration seem to have gained traction in the public sphere.

Vice Principal of the Chibok Girls School On the Run, He was Accused of Conniving with Boko Haram and the Opposition For the Girl's Kidnap, In Order to Tarnish Jonathan's Govt image

I strongly believe that the kidnap of the Chibok Girls was planned and perpetrated by the opposition that said they would make President Jonathans govt ungovernable. They bribed the Vice Principal and the school authorities to allow Boko Haram to kidnap the girls.The investigations below raises more questions than answers:

5 Sacrifices Every Entrepreneur Must Make

Every entrepreneur starts out with big dreams and excitement. As an entrepreneur, you control your own destiny, and with the right ideas, the right skillset and unflinching dedication, you can build wealth or establish an enterprise to serve as your legacy.

This is the bright side of entrepreneurship, but unfortunately, there’s also a darker side. The rigors of entrepreneurship demand sacrifices, and if you don’t make those sacrifices you’ll never be able to succeed. Business is, at its core, a give-and-take process. The more you invest, and the more you’re willing to part with, the more you’ll reap in rewards in kind.

These are the five sacrifices that every entrepreneur needs to make:

Xenophobia: South African writes a touching story about his friend from Congo

  The lazy South African youths are just being jealous of the hardworking foreigners that are diligent and resilient in their businesses and work. It is wrong before man and God to take the life of your fellow human being because he is sojourning in your country and adding value there. Even the biblical Pa Abraham was instructed by God to leave his country and migrate to a country He (God) will show him and he obeyed. This is enough proof to condemn the action of the lazy and envious South Africans. Some one said that there is no scarcity of job, there are only no faithful people looking for job. If they say there is no job they should create one as most foreigners there do....The problem is not in abilities but in mentalities. The mentalities of some lazy and lousy South Africans are myopic and devilish. We are all soujourners on this journey of life. Nobody can lay claim to any country or state as his own, that is why naturalization is part of civilization. Anyone can naturalize any where. I recall the story by one of my friends, Mr. Idris an igbo man from Anambra state south east, Nigeria whose grand father naturalized in Borno State, today he cannot trace his family lineage in the south east and he naturalized in Borno state and no body knows that he is not from Borno state. Its high time the world should rise and unite against what the South Africans are doing to foreigners.
