JUST BEFORE YOU STEP INTO 2015, YOU MUST;;;

                                      JUST BEFORE YOU STEP INTO 2015, YOU MUST;;;

       Undoubtedly, 2014 has been a very Challenging year to most of us, too many ups and down at the same time. Sure there has been  records of things that were not expected but occurred without any prior notification. I am sure we've all had various events, one or two that has caught us unaware in 2014 and turned the face of things completely   
        Not forgetting our yearly resolutions, you may have not been able to achieve all , but for the ones you are able to, how far have you gone with it?
What impact have you been able to make with the little achievement you have made in 2014   ''Some will say its non of their business'' But we forgot that we are all responsible for the failure and the success of the society we live in today. What you are doing and you believe no one is seeing you, don't be surprised when everything is been revealed to all eyes.
       What are your expectations like in 2014, sure some people with still have some carryover into 2015,but remember your dreams and aspirations must be kept clear. You must know what you really want or rather what you are aiming for. We like to have so many things at the same time, I want this, I want that, to some they will always
want almost every anything their eyes could see, but I assure you from my own school of thought that you cannot have everything you are clamoring for ,but the little one you can ,you should be able to make you own life work with it.
         We  are often easily carried away by what we see, for instance ; you 've aimed at getting something, you see another thing, then you change your mind immediately. I am not saying its wrong for you to have a change of mind, but u must maintain the second thought on whatever you want to change. 2015 will be a very different year ,so you must pay attention to every details in it.  
          Just before you step into 2015, you must write all your goals and aspirations down, pick  a pen and a book do that now. Writing it down you must put yourself together to do these, because it is possible for you to be easily carried away by various occurrences and side attractions of life.
Put it down in a paper and be very specific, don't just say I want these I want that, you must be very sincere with yourself . Remember if you are deceiving everyone, you cannot deceive yourself.  That's very impossible. 
             Looking forward to 2015 to be a greater year. Hoping for a turn around in every areas of the Country, Economically, Politically, Ideologically, Religion and academically ,you name it, change must occur.
Now is the time for you to take a pause and ponder on your past mistakes, then you will know how to tackle future occurrences if you really want change to take place.
           One of the tricks is for you to count your blessings one by one, enter the New Year with Thanksgiving ,you will be surprised by the outcome of 2015. Giving thanks to God is the Key , don't be left out in doing these. Know that success is never Accidental, you must be ready to pay the price.
Have a fulfilling 2015.

YEMI OSIBAJO; ''MY VIEW.''

                                         YEMI OSIBANJO; ''MY VIEW''

             Indeed you will agree will me for the very first time on this one ,that this is a big one for Professor Yemi Osibajo. Prof  happened to be the former AG and Commissioner of Justice in Lagos State, while his brother Akin  also held the same position in Ogun State and  am not sure if he has held any other position in the Nigeria's political scene, after he left the office some years back. 
             I was privileged to have met Prof some nine years ago, when i was working for Barrister Ebun Adegboruwa, who's law firm was formally on the island. He was a junior colleague to Prof, not until recently that I met him again at Chief S.M. Olakunri's 80th birthday ,where have been invited to photograph by the family at Parkview.   
I could recollect that he was a Pastor in the Redeemed Christian Church of God. The parish where Barrister Adegboruwa was pastoring then was about to celebrate their 4th year anniversary and Prof was invited as a guest minister for the service. That was where i discovered that Prof was also a minister in the Redeemed Church. There i marveled at the leadership of Pastor Adeboye to have surrounded himself with great individuals like Yemi Osibajo SAN as pastor under himself.
              I was privilege to have a little assessment of him that day. I vividly remembered he spoke about the benefit of waiting on God, who his going to perfect everything at his own appointed time, because he owns all season. He spoke excessively on what God really want from us, which is prayer and thanksgiving. There I realized another purpose driven life and also man's responsibility to the Creator.
             My concerns about Prof is that is he really ready for this or this is just a propaganda? Please pardon my ignorant .
As a former AG and Commissioner, your commitment to the educational sector, likewise your contributions in the United Nations
Peace Committee, are u sure you could be able to work with General Mohammad Buhari ,knowing fully well his kind of military background.
Its takes more than just being a Professor or even a Pastor to be able to work the General in a country like Nigeria. Once a solder always will be.
I hope Nigerians will not regret these if General Buhari eventually triumph in the coming election.
          My opinion to Prof is that you should made up your mind and be ready for all challenges because am sure the road is not going to the smooth throughout even with the so called General.
You will surely encounter much distractions as to deviates your mind from that which you have intended to do
 "Please stand strong"
            I am sure with the level of experiences you have gathered from the various offices in the past, from the office of the AG to Special Adviser and even in the United Nations ,we Nigerians could still be hopeful for a better tomorrow 
         Prof's experience has no boundary and am
 
sure he will be able to deal with this successfully.
I wish you the very best in the coming election. 
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        '                                                                                         'Yemi Ojabamila writes from New York.

ANOTHER CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION. '' Lessons of Love'' Part 1

                   ANOTHER CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION.

      I remember thought in the bible that says God is love , and indeed you will agree will me that God is love, because i don't think there could be any other love that could be greater than this kind of love that God hast showed to mankind
       Christmas is widely accepted as on of the greatest festive celebration in the world. It is the greatest gift from God to the human race. God showed love by give up his holy son to come and take away the sins of the world. for me that alone his the greatest lesson of love anyone on earth could receive.
     It is a reminder of Gods love from the inception of human race. This is why we must remind ourselves of our responsibilities to God and to our fellow human, because he  first to loved us, even when we were in sin, he never forsakes us.
     likewise we, either Christians or Muslims must be endeavor  to show love in all we do. we must cast away everything that holds us back, either religion , language, culture, tribes, colors, whatever that could deprives us from showing love to our fellow humans
.
    Whatever we have or we are able to,  we must acknowledge that it was given to us. Let us remember the helpless, the widows, he less privilege ,homeless and those that are lonely ,those who suffers persecution of one thing or the other.
    I want to tell you confidently that love can never be over emphasized and their is absolutely nothing you do for love in these period that could be too much, remember that someone  somewhere have also showed love to you. According to the holy book,  you must do to others what you want them to do to you.
  As you have decided to give and to support other people in your own little ways, its my prayer that the Almighty God will remember you in all your weaknesses .
   Have a lovely day and merry Christmas in advance.
