MY FIRST NATIONAL FACILITATING XPERIENCE
Adrenaline high...anxiety overboard...this was my feeling by the time I was called up to faclitate my session at the just concluded NLDS is Calabar...For weeks I have worked on my powerpoint presentation...having to get feedback from my Coach, MC responsible and couple of friends...making sure the powerpoint was not boring and was educative enough to pass out the intended message...I also had this fear of not being able to capture the mind of the delegates...the days before this had really been challenging...The time came and I did what I had to do...I got really great thumps up from my fellow FACIs...but I guess the delegates would know better as they were the once the whole presentation was for...

MY JOURNEY TO CALABAR
Left Lagos yesterday for the longest journey I have ever embarked on in my life...12 hours in a bus with fellow facis( Niyi Adeyemi, Kole Abifarin, Vincent Opoku)...my mum was calling almost every four hours to find out if I had gotten to my destination...passed through Anambra, Abia, Imo and Akwa Ibom...The Country is actually green and beautiful...Hope to have a wonderful and exciting time in Calabar.

MUCH ADO ABOUT THE ATTACK ON TUFACE IDIBIA
Really am amazed at the hype given to the attack on Tuface...every one seems to know now that the country is not safe...i wonder when the country, the continent and the world in general is ever safe...countless of Nigerians have emigrated the country one the basis of the insecurity of the country all thanks to the military era and the military juntas of that time...Recently Lucky Dube was shot dead in his country..there was a real outcry and we are made to see the great danger of South africa...but no one there is talking so much about emigrating just because of that...the South African is foreve proud of their homeland...in contrast to the average Nigerian.
Nigeria has always been known for its insecurity issues...everyday a man gets kidnapped (thanks to the militant of theNiger delta), shot and the unlucky ones die...No one gets to talk, care or give a damn when an orginary citizen gets shot or killed but when a star is shot or killed... then every one starts to care
everyone is saying...why would any body want to hurt Tuface or any of the Best brains in the country...
BUT the question is WHY WOULD ANYONE WANT TO HARM OR KILL A FELLOW BEING...
