Why is the government at fault?

To give rhetorical written speeches is easy, how about drafting a blue print a nation will agree with to follow?

This is why political parties exist; a group of people who have outlined an executive plan for a nations development and growth projections, however what can derail those plans is the willingness of its people to follow, as well as lead themselves. If a government is busy micromanaging people then that growth is delayed and not only by the government but the people are responsible.

Why is the government at fault? Their inability to explain and manage a supposedly simple thing. Looking at the fact that people elect who they like not always who can why be surprised that most politicians present a nice face yet are difunctional. When people want air blown up their behinds then don't be surprised that a whooping may follow to get things done in projected time.

The government that wants to succeed with its people must know its people in terms of culture, traditions they uphold regardless of if it is good "strengths" or bad "weaknesses" and skill level, this is the core for developing an executive plan then during elections campaign be able to explain this in ways that people can understand.

The problem Africa has is that votes are bought through you the people accepting fringe benefits in return for your voice, after then who is going to listen to your hungry pleas that the food has finished? Why this happens is because "I would hate to say this" but the mass is uneducated in what it takes to get out of poverty that fuels decease and crime. I doubt that anyone will rejoice when told that should they not want to grow that the result is often not what people desire. It isn't for nothing when it is said "An idle mind is the devils workshop" in economic terms this would mean "an ignorant people can seldom produce something worthwhile."

Now the only way not to breach civil rights in return for industrialisation as a growth platform is to consider the time for labour works and values "skills" that people should possess. This orientation comes from the perspective of family rights as well as consideration to the single persons who still need to have a life outside of work. I had worked in establishments for 12 hrs a day and that wasn't a burden to me because I had a goal but 3 years within that establishment was enough. Any young unmarried none parent can decide for themselves how long they wish to work but for older and parents timing should be considered as the guilt felt by those who are serious about parenthood can affect their output both as professionals and as a parent.

Why is the government at fault? they lie and buy your votes because you want to be lied to and bought, without that you will pester them with delivery timelines which varies from person to person and can make a mess of what was initially proposed during campaigns yet they can't tell you the truth that you also play a big part to executing.

Iron Lady Thatcher.

For me it isn't about am I a good or bad person, or how many friends or enemies I made. I need to
lead my people to greener pastures, it is about making decisions that were needed to be made, and often with it come a varying amount of results!

Today England is what it is because of individuals who are able to say Yes or Nay when needed and take the punches that come with it! i judge the results not the decisions. One will always have those who will throw darts at you, but they can't deny your presence!

Sometimes I wonder if people realise that the presidents or prime ministers make the decisions alone! Sometimes I wonder if the nations people do take responsibility for passing the wrong information to their leaders. What goes around comes around always, you lie in search, you get bad analysts of events, and that leads to the wrong actions!

May she live on in our memories, cos through her decisions we all know what not and what may! There is so much that misses the eye, the answers are in the Lions Heart! Would we know the real truth?

R. I. P the Iron Lady Thatcher, you've done your bit and that's what counts to me. I hope when I grow up, I'd be like you! For now I am too much of a pussy to judge you!

A. S. Pushkin

Unlike other countries within Africa at least Nigerian artists aren't covering up the state of affairs.

What's the point in dying in silence? As I said before, the white picket fences hide the desperate, rappers have been hated from time, they were always the poets of their time.

A. Pushkin was sent on exile to Siberia by the royal family for disturbing their peace and the only way he could be brought down was through duels. They found out that among his strengths there was one crucial weak point "his passion for life, dignity "in his wife" as a proud african man even if he didn't grow up within the african environment he still had the hot rod blood flowing. He became jealous easy because as he was a terrible flirt himself, he presumed that women are too weak. He set out to marry into a rich home and to some extent he thought at least as he pursues his core talent his wife wouldn't be in desperate need of financial care. He loved her most but like any african man would fall in and out of love easily as that fuelled the muse, he could fall in love with a leaf or tree and find beauty in a stone and using that to describe a lady, which made him a catch in high society.

His grand mother brought to his attention a lot of things which made him write from such an early age. She told him of the far seas and about his ancestral lineage which fuelled his ego and pride. Everyone loved his plays and poetry until it turned heads because they didn't realise that with the love of life comes in the love of people, they are inseparable values.

His passion and love of women  became a problem when he was deprived of being financially stable, separated from his family, then came in slander by writing compromising bio about him so others wouldn't give him work to sustain his family and craft, one suitor after the other came after his wife and being married to him made her an outlaw as well and her family became agitated and in process gave her the wrong set of advices which pushed her to infidelities to what he couldn't be dispassionate about. He started drinking heavily which compromised his ability to think rationally and he was in and out of duels which finally brought him to his demise.

He was a child of the revolutionary era where various poets of his time were his friends and together they sought to enlighten the elite about the plight of the people which they never wanted to hear. Most of his incredible works had been destroyed as that was perceived harmful by the royal family but they didn't realise that by trying to erase his image they would meet with a worse fate, the fall of the Romanovs.

Not listening to the tongs of time coming from the poets often leads to the fall of a rule. The Romanovs were preoccupied with their own interests and when things became bad it became too late to turn back the tides of people's self loathing. Incarcerating writers who are lead to speak the truth is dangerous for a society and its leaders. It is God that speaks through them as they are the vessels that carry the light but often seen as the dark nights.

Bumbling idiot.

Just downloaded this from a chat group on a student network and curiosity drew me to read about him. This supposed bumbling idiot as he was labeled is said to have apparently invented the philosophy behind the conduct of implementing examination of students. If he conducted it himself then probably he wouldn't be labeled as such. In the bio read up on him and his work it is said that his work revolved around phenomenology "to feel and to experience oneself in every point of its being," ie meaning that putting oneself through desired experiences teaches one to understand the truth" considering that to translate someone's work from one cultural understanding to another as well as teaching his followers to implement it the way he viewed his philosophy gets lost in translation, this is why certain theories get screwed. Also consider another aspect that those who understood his philosophy would approach it from a different angle and the true meaning of his theory also gets screwed. To sustain an image of an upright scholar its is dangerous to teach others the methods of ones practice without first screening their moral and ethical stand towards life and people.

In the manner through which he is depicted in this picture there are 2 effects that it arouses. In a subjective "negative mind" one would instantly develop and project negativity to the person, a conscious mind that sees this and understands that a coin has 2 sides will show curiousity towards studying his practice first and then see if how he is depicted in the picture is really true.

As much as I am a rebel I do not totally eradicate the concept of examining people. Theories exist for expansiating on a thought through theorising more and practising the thought to find the results for another level of theory to surface. Looking at why the students are dissatisfied with exams is in direct relation to the practicians of theories in schools/universities then and today. The group in question is voicing out their displeasure with the manner with which they are handled by the teachers but the result is that it is backfiring at the founders of the theoretical practice but no one is questioning the followers or translators of his theories into practice.

To teach is to put someone through an experience either in thought or practice but what is going on is that they are being shoved with information that they can't relate to or often isn't used or may not be practiced due to circumstantial events. Again I say the curriculums of then do not entirely fit into what is going on now. Technology has changed a lot of things and this begs to review the theories that are being given.

To test or to examine someone would be more positively accepted and conducted if practice is done first,  then using the former developed theory to bridge the gap for knowledge to establish itself customary "customised to individual demands" within every individual or we will all continue to swim in nonsense and currently existing chaos.

Typing from my iPhone so I need to review this on my MacBook to edit the grammar. Lol this is exactly the process that theories need to go through to get to the bottom line of initiated thoughts.

I haven't left Africa.

Africa, our inability to rise and the downfall of the economy is because we practice wizardry, lies and fakery. Our films promote what we practice and people are insecure, which results in the world fighting us in same coin. Will we Change? Do we want a better life and livelihood? When I said violent men and illiterate women are the worst of all is because of this and many don't understand the effects of keeping people in the dark.

I haven't left Africa because I want to believe that other than the violence we exhibit we can actually show who we are on a mass scale than allowing tyrants and tyrannical regimes become the order of the day to put people straight. Do you all think we are not breeding tyrants within who tomorrow will commit genoside as a way to discipline the masses that have nothing to do with politics? What is politics? A way a people project their future dreams and ambitions. Violence begets violence. And please have no doubt that other countries and continents have no such.

Our kids are worth more than being slaughtered in broad day light or sold of because of ignorance and greed. You can all hate me just because I remind you not to forget why I fight so hard the social policies we uphold.

Watch our films on family matters and you will see what a wife, mother and women do to each other because our men are violent and seeking to keep ignorance.

I have good dreams but I prepare for the worst actions of men.

Those who write, write.

I feel the problem with our movie industry is that those who write, write from their minds not heart. Our actors are boxed in that frame therefore can't let the emotions brew to project, there is no sultriness or subtle expression, its over the top. When little research is done, the story lines remain mundane and repetitive.

Africans have been so desensitised that most don't even know who they are any more. Money is cherished over creativity, when we look at ourselves in the mirror we look at what haircut or shades to put on rather than ask "what should i do today to make someone feel better." Colonialism only worsened the already existing violent disposition that nature carved the black man to be and few black men fought against it or were murdered by the vultures. Harsh environments breeds harsh people.

When one holds an african man one feels no passion from within and an emptiness after an act, why would our women submit to such theft. Our women have shut down their hearts and minds. They have truly submitted and have refused to fight by worshiping the cross as a way of solace. with the child marriage laws being passed we are worsening the case. Men chase us based on what they think we are, ripping any affection and tenderness that could have been there.

Monroe Moment.

Give me names of Black Male Actors who you all would love to see in the Adaptation of  the film
"Some Like it Hot & Some like it Not" staring with me in the role of Monroe. It will be hot and steamy.

And please don't restrict the actors to hight and shape. I promise to make them laugh and cry too hehe.

I had been fixing my garage.

I can't fathom something about the behavioural patterns of most men who work with or for women. If I was a guy I probably wouldn't have to turn into a bully, the physical presence of a guy around sure makes other men think twice before attempting any nonsense. This prelude is as a result of an experience I had about 2 weeks ago and would help some women to know what they may have to deal with.

Why would an independent contractor who was paid 60% of the money to start think that he can submit an unfinished job to a lady and think she should be happy?

I had been fixing my garage. Before granting the work to commence, I asked him for the invoice then told him I will go to make a price survey to compare. He was informed and expressed  no issue with it. On considering that his cost was lower, I didn't argue with him to reduce his cost for materials and labour. During the course of the job I started noticing him trying to wiggle his way out of proper submission but was demanding for full pay before he completes. At start I asked him politely then seeing his blatant disrespect I turned around and became difficult/bitchy in order for him to realise that my smiling at start shouldn't be taken as being soft.

In managing people I don't see the need to be a dog but when they ride on it I become a wolf. Don't men realise that I have hard men in my family who would whoop me for being soft because I choose to be kind? As much as I don't give a rats about how satisfied they are with my performance it also disturbs me and I am willing to give them a hard run in return. :) Maybe what didn't help him was that I worked for 2 years at Strabag and with Germans. It sure sucks to be a contractor to an educated person. There are standards there that one needs to be aware of. During the period of my working, I had seen what turns a perfectly good plan into crap.

Ministers of works and housing reps would slice down the initial design into half the standard and size to keep in their pockets, then the company pays the price by being called substandard without a thought to a fact that if they don't agree to the ministries demands they wouldn't be awarded the next allocation. GB company still does works. Why' is there no healthy competitive market in Africa? Don't we realise that without competition the economy becomes dull? Engineering and architectural students have no jobs and are in bank booths crying away while simple constructive ideas are needed to fuel tourism etc and retainer-ship for the entertainment industry to flourish. Entertainment is for most part a youth based environment with the same engineers supporting it from the tech side. I mean come on people where is the benefit to monopoly and education being corrupted?

I hate beurocrasy "pen pushing" as its same as corruption due to the lack of leadership within the technical units in universities for every industry.

We are who we are and we become what the surround sound demands of us women on a private and social level too.

The construction industry is about  developing and maintenance "trying to be simplistic here." Women handle the maintenance and the guys the rough works, as a lot of men seldom understand what overall aesthetics "comfort" is all about. Why? Most Men have short attention span, most women are diligent and meticulous. 😎 First of all to maintain is to brand a piece and considering the cost of materials and time due to space allocation.

Construction Cleanup service, that's how the idea was identified initially. For equal opportunities to arise there is a need for division of labour and not from the stand point of what women and men can or can not do. After all I have met men who can't or don't want to fix bulbs and women who enjoy doing woodworks.

We need roads but it doesn't have to be tarred only, this can be done using stones and bricks from the earth moving that takes place during big construction projects, which on the long run is easier to maintain in reference to replacing potholes than wasting time getting the paving equipments. Of course I understand that to design and construct isn't a days job but for now maintenance culture needs to be imbedded and students need to go to the fields of future works in areas where  "maintenance" is needed and start analysing and developing solutions, just like we do by breaking down ideas and after identifying locations that need the concepts.

So should one start by helping home based cleanups of rubble then progress to the cites because hey in construction there are opportunities, as left overs from previous jobs/projects are recycled for new designs.

As Africans we are terrible with maintenance and those who get into a territory get affected by that attitude. Those who weren't previously inattentive become like us too, unless we don't mind being called names by those who think they are smarter.

Recycling of construction based leftovers is a mess too. Most small construction companies don't have employees to handle delivery demands. They only get casual labour when they get a contract and that'll be it. Some are not even office based. How to help them? The government could have a network of  workers that are released when needed. This way a small unit of educated youth can hire a set team of specialised workforce instead of the government giving finance allocations that may take time for them to get to work immediately. It's ridiculous that a government doesn't have a census of different professionals in any area of specialty that can be called when needed. Isn't that what a university is? Do "leaders" measure people based on head count or should they be counting and measuring the professionals they have?

For the most part In Africa we build our own houses and we don't have an organised method for it. I have no problem with building my own house or space but the industry ministries shouldn't be bugging me with approvals but be called to site to guide me rather than looking for what to do themselves out of my needs.

Construction is about materials, labour and planning so having a permanent office isn't always a wise option, maybe helping out by having containers that are rented for the duration of the project sounds more sensible? Offices made of containers? Or easily mountable solutions? Those who are into shipping have access to containers and can offer them under lease when shopping season is on standstill. Considering that now with trade being inconsistent as before loads of containers are empty. There are flats made out of containers so to make a mobile office isn't a new thing. Earlier we had mentioned trailers.

Knowing basics in IT helps structuring and Organising skills to develop, just as doctors are also good at building houses because they understand the principles of structure based on the knowledge of  the body structure, they may need project management orientation should there be a need to ease the bottle neck in the medical industry. Medical based students also work on construction sites should there be any injuries as well as security services are needed in hard core areas.

Love Pearls.

For me any stone that has a colour pattern is precious. What brings it to value is the amount of work
that was placed to bring its beauty out. A simple stone in a complementary frame looks good. It's not that I have no value, lives are important to me.

Instead of blood diamonds id rather grow love pearls grown in sea or in rivers.

The essence of discrimination.

Ever since man was made on Earth the demand to survive had been to assert oneself from weaknesses  human beings had against nature. It was demanded that weaknesses be eradicated in order to survive. As much as I agree that we should be strong we should also realise that certain weaknesses are strengths depending on the environment or circumstances that we find ourselves in.

I had within the morning hours decided to give a visual perspective on what the perceived disabled go through for my readers to understand the topics and the manner in which I present them. In the first stands of my posts I give a rough draft of what is to be and leave it open for criticism but what I got was a critique on my person and in order to drive the point of what creating is about I continue to persist in the same direction until the wise heads who rather than take what is given and work on it understand that my mistakes is a deliberate method for inviting your collaboration not just on the projects but on the essence of what StartUpSity stands for.

The "disabled" produce yet the wise keep perpetuating ignorance by talking rather than doing what is necessary for a move forward.

DJ's where are the remixes?

It's the music that stops people from going to nightclubs, that's where the groove is, if that isn't there then alcohol replaces the fun. Good sounds make people groove.

For someone who is in her mid 30's I really don't mind at intervals to hear my oldies and then jam with the youth on their tunes. DJ's where are the remixes?

Will get the boot.

Sometimes I question these policies of equal opportunity employment structures that are being enforced. Having companies obligated into employing people into jobs that they don't fancy or have no disposition towards is counterproductive for the business even if it somewhat seems to eliminate the underemployment rate, it can also cripple a company. Spending time dealing with moods as a result of a person working because they have to in a particular area, because that's the only opportunity presented, wears the employers out of even wanting to be in the business.

Someone asked why do I seem to practice nepotism "that was in reference to me having selected students from the class that I am in" I said, "regardless, I would still be accused that I didn't choose all from the class, so I can't win either way, but on the other side, if anyone brings down my practice or project be it family or not, will get the boot."

Can't understand why.

Cure for wicked In-laws is a taser. Women and men give them a taste of their own actions. Can't understand why a gal that is scorned should keep quiet. Or her made to be quiet is so that they can continue? Any inlaw who disturbs a couple should be put to order. They are seldom happy in their own homes so they need to make everyone like them.

Lifted on my resting day.

God Father: people think that they will be messing with my weekdays yet expect to be uplifted on my resting day? Exodus 20:8-11

The sabbath day can be any day, everyone needs physical rest. Some may need 2 sabbaths depending on the load of work. Mark 2:27

Sabbath also represents the act of reflection/preparation on actions taken or to be taken during the/a time frame. I prefer to have sabbaths/plan at nights to be prepared for the next day.

After church you will still have to rip what was previously sown/facing reality of actions taken, unless you enter the house of the Lord with a clean conscience. The thoughts and deeds with which we enter the house of God is the reply that we leave with. Pastors are supposed to be the vessels that receive the messages based on what people need at a time to help by informing on what to do before or next.

If thou hath offended thy brother yet come to me to ask for favours, first go and make amends then you will receive the blessings you request. Mathew 18:15-17, 5:23-25 and 1 Corinthians 9:19-23

Haven't people not realised that debts out to be paid and he never takes tithes as bribes from people with guilt in their hearts? Of what benefit is a prayer that hath no purpose? Of what good is a gift given in dispute? If I have a quarrel with my father, would he eat my food?

Dreadlocks.

It's scary to think that our Father who created us "who art in heaven" and through us expresses various talents "hallow be thy name" yet the church and pastors are restricted to a one directional mindset and mode of expression "thy kingdom come." Tomorrow tell me why they can't connect to your experiences "forgive us our trespasses". Total crap "as we forgive those who trespass against us." Pastors should have dreadlocks even if they look clean shaven "give us our daily bread." To take care of dreads is expensive/time consuming. Wear fashion clothing if you like, it feels good to look good too and not because one needs to impress someone. I love my raziness it eases me from being trapped in imagery/idolisation.

Sing for a salvation.

When I go to a place of worship and I see how many people are asking in voice for jobs, healing etc, I can't sit and sing for a salvation that had been given yet needs to be shared. Giving tithes isn't just in physical cash but in anything that one possesses and willingly gives as a gift or earned for practising a gift. And it isn't restricted to a type of environment. If a pastor considers money as the only thing that his or her church requires alone then to me they have lost out on a greater offering.

At peace with oneself.

To be Holly is to be at peace with oneself and hopefully at points with others that surround you, be it a person or profession/calling.

Those who abuse those who they call holly with a scornful attitude are  those who couldn't break one into giving in to a preset rule that had no favour for both sides. Often offers come with little thought about the next person. Wanters are always takers, givers never lack.

To find oneself and to be at peace with what one has or is is to be wholesome. There are those who say they are content but with every action they give away their discontent with their lives. We live in a world that constantly seeks to subject others into a mindset and every one must find a middle ground for coexistence. Free will in free willing.

Most Men and Women are finding it hard to be content in the now and building according to self measured steps, projecting towards tomorrow because they are constantly competing with the shadows created by childhood and per-pressure zones that hadn't been healed and then results in taking the pressures out on others. It is said that children carry the burdens/sins of their parents but only when they do not partway with the ways of their fathers. Who you imitate and follow is who you become likened to.

For most it is difficult to detach themselves as the social order questions a child or a young person for wanting to leave an environment or parental home, the economic system within the underdeveloped countries subjects people to cluster and only a few fight those chains it's less in the developed worlds.

Why do people question "interfere" into decisions that an individual makes in fighting for their freedom or liberties? Greed is the the reason, everyone wants to know why a place that is likened to them someone else doesn't want to be in it, "did they find something or someone better? hence you see in some people's lives a friend would sway a friend from being with someone in specific if they hadn't found one to move on with.

Mothers hold back their sons because they don't want to be left alone even if they still have a living in spouse. Tell me if someone is happy would they fight the happiness of another? It's a terrible thing that is going on in families, religions and in economics, most are selfish and only charitable when they have found charity themselves.

Vulnerable & Naked.

I think we need to make a distinction between being exposed and naked!

Exposed is vulnerable emotions, naked is confident strength. You could be dressed up in a turtle neck and still be under scrutiny, while sexy and attract no hell. if the reason you wear tight dress is to impress rather than being who you truly are naked, then whats the point, just put a sign on your 4head "i need a Shag" :)
