Izuu's Turn

Do they have this? A colonel in the airforce? Gare Guillemins, Liège, Belgique I have been scouring the internet over night to see if I can confirm that there is actually one in existence. Well, I met one! Or at least, one that claims to be one! I had just had a smooth trip to and fro Paris Coming down at the Guillemins Station, Liège, I boarded a bus for home.

Which political party is the best in Nigeria? Which of them has performed in the people's interest more than the others? What is the criteria for knowing the best political party in Nigeria especially since the people of Osun, Edo, and Ekiti may be disappointed or otherwise if they expect their states to turn to Lagos in four years? As we blame PDP for all the problems of Nigeria, we have to ask ourselves whether other parties have fared better in the states they control. At least I know that Yobe, Borno, and Kano have been under ANPP in the last eight years. Before Zamfara and Kebbi jumped to PDP, did ANPP achieve any land-breaking successes in those areas? What about Ondo under Labour Party? Anambra under APGA? And then the ones under ACN? Have all PDP governors failed woefully in their respective states? Is there a link between PDP and Nigeria's under-development since 1999? If yes, what about our under-development prior to 1999, was it PDP also? Wha...

Map of Japan Courtesy: Google My heart goes out to the Japanese in this period of tribulation. Being buffeted by an earthquake and a tsunami at the same time is a plague that no other nation has ever experienced in known history. Studying about how your island-nation is very prone to earthquakes and earth tremors, I    become,  at once, aware and convinced that you need a new place to call home. And I decided to take a look around the world for a new homeland for you. Japan's devastation Courtesy: Yahoo News Japan Devastation Videos China is the closest to you, but within it the democratic freedom that you have enjoyed in your homeland will become history. State suppression and commodification of the masses (into cheap labour) might de-personalise you and turn your people into beasts of burden especially considering that the Chinese might want to avenge your colonisation of their state a century ago. India is where you might have moved to next, but I r...

I have always been enthralled by the various interpretations that Nigerian spiritist-clergy give to dreams. If you eat in your dream, you have been initiated into witchcraft. If you swim in your dream, you have mammy-water spirit. If masquerades chase you in the dream, spirit of death is over you. And if you dare to have sex in your dream, you will be excommunicated almost! Sigmund Freud From blog. syracuse.com Haba! See me, see wahala (trouble)! What does Freud have to say about this other than what he has already said:  "There is a psychological technique which makes it possible to interpret dreams, and that...every dream reveals itself as a psychical structure which has meaning..." -Sigmund Freud The Interpretation of Dreams . Is this what we now take to assign every dream to a demon where as the man was referring to thing s more substantial than spiritual? To him, dreams are unconscious manifestations of the desires we consciously suppress! Martin Lu...

Have you ever been in a situation where you are at the mercy of an interpreter? Then you will understand what I am about to say. Imagine standing between two people who are obviously speaking in tongues, and the subject of their discourse is you - with your own permission. You stand there, looking lost but striving to keep a straight face. One is my interpreter, who has taken the pains to be your voice where you cannot be understood, and the other is the occupier of the office, from whom you need one document or the other. And what does the later do? In between the rattling in strange tongues, she turns to look at you as if you are the fullstop she desperately needs to modulate the speed of her speech delivery. You try to understand the look she constantly throws at you and many options open up to you as to the muted questions in her thoughts: Here is a full grown man that cannot speak for himself ... what a shame! These Africans do they ever know anything? What is the relati...
