WHAT BUHARI PROMISED NIGERIANS

On May 29, Muhammadu Buhari will take office as President of Nigeria. Expectations are high as most Nigerians expect the coming government to wave a magic wand and make all their problems disappear. The Buhari campaign which ran on a ‘CHANGE’ mantra made numerous promises to Nigerians during the campaign.
Buhari’s campaign promises as presented by Vanguard
On Politics and Governance:
I, Muhammadu Buhari, believe that our politics is broken. Our nation urgently needs fundamental political reform and improvement in governance more transparency and accountable. If you nominate me in December, 2014 and elect me in February 2015, my administration will:
1. Initiate action to amend the Nigerian Constitution with a view to devolving powers, duties, and responsibilities to states in order to entrench true Federalism and the Federal spirit;
2. Strengthen INEC to reduce, if possible, eliminate electoral malpractices in Nigerian’s political life;
3. Attract the best and brightest of our sons and daughters into our politics and public service by aggressive recruitment of private sector people, academics, and professionals within
Nigeria and in the Diaspora through internships, fellowships, executive appointments, and special nomination to contest elective offices;

Happy democracy day!!!

Hello my lovely LD fam, TGIF! Happy democracy day !

1. Intelligent –This attribute ranks veryhigh, after men have gotten past your looks. Men love women that are smart, opinionated, and articulate. Most enjoyspeaking to women who have their own point of view on subjects and are passionate in discussing affairs of the day. Men love to debate, and if you canmake them believe, or at least respect, your point of view, then you have a man that will see you as an equal, and not as an ornament to be displayed to the rest of the world until the next bestornament comes his way.

LOST INNOCENCE
Wind whistling,
Snow glistening,
We try not to,
But we're all listening.

Loud screams,
Bad dreams,
It's very far,
But close it seems.

Sad day,
Lost our way,
All we can do,
Is simply pray.

Innocence gone,
Life no longer long,
We may not know,
But we're all doing wrong.

Joy lost,
The Holocaust,
We look to see,
Hearts covered in frost.

Wars fought,
Sins taught,
Making mistakes,
Hoping not to be caught.

Not taking blame,
Pushing for fame,
As advanced as we are,
We're still all untamed.

Too much pride,
Needing a guide,
We will deny it,
But behind lies we hide.

Hurting others,
Betraying brother,
Many forgetting,
To appreciate mothers.

Lies are fed,
Filling heart and head,
Through all of these years,
Innocent blood has been shed.

Children abandoned,
Lonely and stranded,
We're all wasting the life
That we have been handed.

Taking from the poor,
We're loving no more,
Fight to be free,
End up starting a war.

People starting fights,
No longer enjoying the sights,
While mere mortals are taking
Our God given rights.

Soldiers killed,
Void can't be filled,
Pay close attention,
For pure souls have been tilled.

Need to find peace,
Work together like geese,
But greatest of all,
The hate needs to cease.

Inspiration Wednesday- I can't

  Hello my darling LD fam, happy mid week, its another edition

 of inspiration Wednesday, read and be inspired.

I was the quintessential "I can't" child -- the poster child for the

 Advancement of the word "can't."

Whatever my mother told or asked me to do was immediately

 followed by my whining, "I caaaaan't." Consequently, very few

 tasks or goals that I set out to accomplished were ever completed.

One evening, my mother called me into the family room where she

 was reading an article in the TV Guide. On the cover was a photo

 of Marlo Thomas, currently starring in the popular sitcom, That Girl.

 Mother knew that the show was one of my favorites and Marlo one 

of my show biz idols.

The Genotype issue

Hello dearest LD Fam, how are you doing today, well am glad 

its another beautiful day, and guess what? the lord has been good

 to me, this month has been amazing so far, am happy about that.

 Well i really wish today's post will be interactive because its a 

very important issue

Well there was this friend of mine long ago, who started dating this
 guy, and believe me there love seem perfect, though in every
 relationship there are ups and downs, but this two always disagree
 to agree,i think the guy at some point the guy went for tests in

10 types of men ladies should avoid

Hello dearest LD fam, happy new week, hope you have a blessed and
 fulfill week ahead, pardon me for the unannounced break i took during
 the weekend, i just really had to clear my mind of some things, how is
 everyone doing? well we all are doing an ultimate search for something
 in our love and relationship life as ladies right??? every lady lady is
searching for Mr right, so today i just thought to share 10 types of men
 we do not like and that we must stay away from, so for the ladies
 please take note and the men too can take note so that they can adjust,
 the rate of failed marriages are too alarming to ignore the signs  *winks*

The Liar:
 He takes every slight opportunity to lie, he lies to people in your presence
 without flinching and when he lies, you can almost believe him use he
 is good at it, run far away from him

The Bad boy
At one time or another, every girl has a thing for the guy
 who just doesn’t play by the rules. He’s perpetually angry, 
acts like a tough guy and looks damn good while doing it. 
But the juvenile attraction to the bad boys of our youth can
 quickly fade when rebellion turns into recklessness. The bad
 boys will just break your heart... or the law. And these rebels 
without a clue top the list of types of men to avoid on the dating scene.

DO YOU BELIEVE IN HOROSCOPE?

Struggle! Why? how many people like struggling- why cant things just be easy!
Here is a story of a butterfly.

A man found a cocoon of a butterfly. One day a small opening appeared
, he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force 
its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. 

It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no farther.
 Then the man decided to help the butterfly, so he took a pair of scissors
 and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then
 emerged easily. But it had a swollen body (or head) and small, shriveled wings.

LADIES , 5 SIGNS HE IS IN LOVE WITH YOU

     Hello lovely people,  how are you doing today? well am not fine, as am

 feeling very sick, but then again , i have to go to work and i have to be 

here too, but as soon as i put up this post, i will take some a lil rest, so i 

was talking to one of my bae  this morning and while talking sha, we talked

 about a guy dats been on her case for long, and she said he has been 

showing that he loves her, and thats the inspiration for this post, signs to

 show he is in love with you:

  He is Proud to show you off; you know sometimes in a relationship,

  especially if the relationship is not based on love, the guy just tries

 all his best to hide the babe from everyone, his friends and family 

members, thats a big sign the babe is a side chick and maybe they have

 already been introduced to the main babe, if he loves you, he

 would be proud to show you off to the world and he would always tell

 everyone that cares to listen about you and about how happy you make him feel.

WINNERS MENTALITY

      Hello lovely people, how was your weekend??? here is a little motivation

 for you as you start your week, do have a blessed week ahead.

 Winning is a word that is exciting to hear and great to be associated with 

but only a few people ever taste it. Every person want to be associated with

 a winner(champion). 

    People like stars are celebrated in society because they have emerged

 'winners' in there respective field. Loosers are shunned and most times loosing

 is associated with shame. no wonder most people when they loose they cant 

withhold tears.

  There isn't any big difference therefor between a winner and a looser. Lets look

 at two football teams. They all have equal number of players, had the same period

 in which to prepare, have same chances of scoring but only one team will be crowned. 

Faith without works is Dead

 Hello my lovely sweethearts, today am feeling very lazy, i guess am going

 to be home all day, may God help me, happy Sunday my people and do 

have a lovely day ahead.

  Today we are going to be talking about Faith and Works, Faith is one of
 the Christian principles that is so dear to my heart, as many times i have used
 it and it has worked for me, but then i feel some people have a misconception
about faith, yes, i know faith is believing the unbelievable but how do you have
 faith that something will happen without working towards it?

CELEBRITY POST- Congrats to blogger Sisiyemmie and hubby bobo

30 Ways To Learn To Love yourself and be happy with the World 2

Hello lovely people, yeah you remember yesterday we started sharing
30 ways to love ourselves and be happy with the world right??? and 
yesterday i shared the first 15 so today i will be sharing 16-30, so relax
 and enjoy, if you didn't see 1-15 that i posted yesterday, you can check it here

16. Care about your appearance — not in a vain, superficial way. 
Care about how you look, so you can feel great when you leave the
 house. But, if you feel like wearing sweatpants and your hair in a bun
 to the grocery store once in a while, go do it.

17. Watch that movie or that Netflix series you’ve been meaning to see.

18. Be active. Exercising regularly releases endorphins and contributes to

 your level of happiness and will help you feel better about yourself.

19. Pick up a hobby. My roommates and I ordered paint-by-numbers 

from Amazon. It made me feel creative and allowed for some 

roommate bonding time.

30 Ways To Learn To Love Yourself And Be Happy With The World 1

Hello lovely people, TGIF, and do have a lovely weekend and remember to
come share with us on Monday, i read this Article on Elite daily and i thought to
 share with ya all, its really a long piece so i broke it into two, i would post the
 remaining part tomorrow enjoy!

  Many people (including me) speak about “self-love”: figure yourself out,
 love yourself before you get into a relationship… and so it goes. However,
 you only truly obtain self-love by having compassion for the self, so you can
appreciate and do considerate deeds for others.

Along my path to learn about myself and work on my own self-love, I discovered
several major truths that still resonate with me and support my personal effort.
I am a constant work in progress, as most of us are. To help you gain more perspective and have a foundation on which to begin your journey of self-love, here are 30 truths to remember:

1. Stop comparing yourself to others. People achieve success and fail at
 different rates.

2. You’re not as fat as you think. Besides, your body fat percentage has
 no bearing on what makes you a quality human being.

3. Exercise because it is good for your soul and not solely for your outward
experience. Appreciate your body and all the things it can do. Stop picking it
 apart — you will never achieve perfection.

4. Find something at which you excel. Maybe you are really amazing at working
with kids and you just don’t know it yet.

PROS AND CONS OF MOBILE PHONES AND ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY

Hello lovely people, Good morning, happy Monday...lol, Yesterday made this blog's two months Anniversary, i totally forgot, but here i am now, saying thank you to everyone that has ever stopped by, thanks so much, for all your awesome comments and your prayers, am saying a special thanks to Cherri, mhen she is amazing in every sense of it, the massive, support,prayers and encouragement and getting from her hen, May God reward her abundantly for me, well, well, well, am not in support of Abortion, but what do all these rescued women from Boko haram that are pregnant do, i even dread the though of them birthing those children,i prefer they abort the children jawe, May God help them

Before the advent of mobile phones in Nigeria, my dad gisted me that they use to use letters as means of communication, if i want to say something to my friend in ibadan and i am in lagos, i will have to write a letter and take it to the post office and it might even take days before the letter reaches my friend, while in some cases they don't even get the letter at all, or another method they use is some rich people have this table telephone powered by Nitel then,

 so people gather in such places and take turns to call their loved ones, but for people who don't  have this opportunity, they travel down to check on their loved ones,very stressful right??

BIRTHDAY POST+ RANDOM THOUGHT

Hello,lovely people, Happy Sunday,  how are you doing??? am excited about this
 month of May, i don't know the reason, but i just feel good about this month and
again am so thankful for life, and for how God has been working wonders.

  Yes today is Immanuel Mavins birthday, he is a fellow blogger and a blog boo
 too, he blogs here, we at Life's diary are saying a very happy birthday to him,
may the lord bless and prosper his ways and may favor and mercy follow him
always,Age with grace dear and do send our cake to my mail, guess what people
Mavins is beautiful miss Genevieve Nnaji's  birthday mate, Happy birthday to her too

see the face behind that awesome blog

  And to my random thought, some times when we humans are in need of something
 and we turn to God to help us with it, but because he is an all knowing God, he
 might give us the thing right away or delay it a bit,  to do it at the best time for us,
 but because we are humans we get very impatient fast, and some people can be
very worst in their waiting time that they do what they are not suppose to do and
 there by lose that favour and blessing God has in stock for them
 Lemme say a short story to back this up, there was a certain man living in my
area while i was going to secondary school, i can remember that this man use to
 be very poor that, he has to push his bike every morning before the bike could
work so that he will use it to carry people and earn small money, av known him
to be like this for years, but later within one month this man bought two cars, i was
 surprised because i was not sure he even had a job, and then he established a shop
 for his wife outside there house, this man would put his Gen on every morning from
 afternoon till night, he was living in great affluence but 6 months after, his wife died
and the wife's family were like the man used the wife as the source of his wealth but
 not long the cries died down and life continued for this man, he married another wife,
 but dearly beloved this man died too barely 5 months after his wife, and guess what
 as rich as he was no kobo was found in his accounts when he died, the family members
 were begging from people in the area so that they can transport him to his village,
twas that bad, so it came to my mind that if God didn't want this man to be rich,
whatever he did wud not have worked out, i just believe that he was not patient
enough to receive the blessings, so it cost him his life, it is only God that maketh a
 man rich without sorrow, what do you think?

expecting my masters interview to go well too this month  by God's grace, what
