           THE VULTURES ARE GATHERING (C) 2018                CHIBU   NDUBUISI         30/07/2018            WEEK 31 “ The Vulture. Of all the creatures in the jungle, he has it the easiest. The hard work of others becomes his work; their failure to survive becomes his nourishment. Keep an eye on the Vulture - while you are hard at work, he is circling above. Do not fight him, join him.” ― Robert Greene, The 48 Laws of Power      Peace be upon you As we approach general elections in Nigeria come 2019, we must not forget the drama of political coalition prior to the 2015 general elections. It is now clear that politics of populism always leads to tyranny. Alliances are now renegotiated and more marriages of inconveniences are entered, all geared, towards the aim of retaining power, attaining power or wrestling power from those who think they have tried but are not appreciated by the electorates or the oligarchs as the case may be.

                               SEED YOUR FURROWS C 2018                     CHIBU NDUBUISI               18/07/2018           WEEK 29                     “All growth is from within, this is evident in all nature”            Peace be upon you. Seed the furrows of your heart and never allow it to lay fallow. Nature abhors a vacuum. How can I seed the furrows of my mind with productive seedlings? Where can I obtain good seeds that yield productively? What type of atmosphere do I need in the vineyard of my heart? No life is without error. Some good seeds can be infested when diligence is not taken in to account in planting. Even when vigilance is applied to the highest degree, some factors can become so overwhelming that we give up. As humans, we still have the chance to try again,  tender and cultivate the vineyard of our hearts to bear fruit for all.  O G Mandino notes that “ …h is birthplace i s  the vineyard where there is food for all”.

            THE LUCKY SPERM CLUB: THE PAINS & GAINS C 2018                      CHIBU NDUBUISI                    10/07/2018                 WEEK 28             “Each of us must answer the critical question “Who am I”                 Peace be upon you. The lucky sperm club can be described as a select group of powerful men who owe their exalted status in life not to talent, intelligence, creativity or hard work but to winning the sperm lotto by having the great fortune to be born in to a powerful family. The gain of finding yourself in such families is quite enormous to mention. To whom, much is given much more is expected as the bible verse goes. With the privilege of birth you have been connected to the grid of affluence and influence. The connection to the power of politics and economy is far reaching. Through such clubs, dynasties are built and destroyed. Examples of political and economic dynasties in the world abound, Saudi Arabia, North Korea,

            UNIFORM EGO: HOW TO DRIVE THAT EGO DOWN C (2018)                           CHIBU NDUBUISI    03/07/2018                WEEK 27 “Don’t do what you wouldn’t feel comfortable reading about in the newspaper the next day”. John  Weston Peace be upon you. Today’s post is dedicated to military and Para-military officials who in the discharge of their duties fail to follow the rules of engagement. They become inconsiderate and carry on their duties with a character of uppity and disdain for others not in their folk. The UNIFORM gives them the aura of invincibility and importance devoid of accountability and decorum. In Nigeria, there is no doubt that Uniform men are the principal law breakers. The break traffic rules at random, they intimidate you on the road through extortion. They involve in human trafficking, armed robbery and collaborate with high criminals as we have witnessed with many examples as in the case of the Billionaire kidnapper “Evans”.
