*In bid for a better Africa. We lost the war when we lost the love. By Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu*

*"Everyman and woman is born out of love, but I fear my fellow country men when they air and project their near perfect moral ideaology of love to others. The self righteous ones out of overt exuberance are often worse. Somewhere, somehow, somethings does not always add up. How people chew their words and still have the heart to go down on their knees to God in prayers is still a mystery and a share abuse of abundant grace. You can never see the bottom of the heart of an unfriendly friend or an ingrate or a greedy soul. Most often than non, you can hardly beat the man nor the masquerade masked behind the smile. If a brother knife can cut so deep then a stranger knife can cut deeper. Its my resolve why I answer most greetings from my well wishers with skepticism. As humans, we are unpredictable and full of surprises.*

*Look around you; after the colonial masters left us in pieces till date it is obvious love was never enshrined in the African culture. It was the gapening hole the colonial masters saw and took advantage of. If you see your country man align with you today, often than non its because there is a cheese and cake somewhere waiting to be shared. Long before the advent of the colonial masters, we have lost patriotism and unfettered love for each other. Everyone preferred to be labelled selfless when deep down in our soul we only advance the interest of our pocket and have the survey sheet of our self centeredness.*

*We drift aimlessly in limbo jumbo in search of the goodness and the perfection that is inadvertently forever lost and missing in us. Just as a saying goes that "when you are in Rome, you are already a Roman whether by legitimacy or not", So is all persons on the African soil regardless of your race, tribe, function, capacity or office. I do not stand to project nor support the supremacy of the igbo extraction over every other tribe but I air the common view and interest of all persons on the African soil.. The white man did not tear apart Africa but Africans did. The colonial masters only came and saw the advantage in our mess and they took it.*

*They saw how broken, divided and unruly we have become and that was tipping juice for them. We are always quick to reflect how the colonial masters came with lashing whips on our back but long after our masters had left, we still have our fellow local and African masters using iron tongs on our back an amplified version and worse harrowing and far worse dehumanizing treatment ment on the African people by the hands of our own African brothers. In bid for a better Africa. We lost the war when we lost the love."* Chukwuemeka Odimegwu Ojukwu

I am putting this question out to alot of key players in the Nigerian music and entertainment industries, what is  and the standards parameter available to music in the Nigerian market??? believe it or not, The Nigeria music industry is already phasing out. These music lacks philosophical depth, moral, consoling and reflective lyrics. You can hardly turn on your TV and Radio these days expecting to get a social and psychological relief. Turn your Radio and TV  on and what you have in your face and ear is a pile of Junk music and video reconstructions that doesn't strike a cord. As a country with teaming challenges and responsibilities, our overall psychological composure has a considerable significance at determining our inputs and output efforts and in relative results. The kind of music we listen to, the kind of videos we watch, and the kind of book we read matters alot at helping to remodel or restructure our mindset and to making an informed judgement. Sure alot of Nigeria ar

Why Snail farming is better than Poultry, fishery, piggery and Ruminant Animal Production

-
With Nigerian population at exactly 210 million people with its occupants on just  28% of its total land mass and as its megacities are home to about 145 million people. protein consumption among its people still remains a very big challenge. An average Nigerian consumes less than 10 pounds or 4.5kg of protein per year unlike in the United States with a population of 322 million people where an average individual consumes more than 150 pounds or 68kg per year. No doubt Agriculture is a fantastic and fulfilling venture especially in both crop and livestock production but which its materialization is still very young or green. To meet the protein production target, alot of effort is pumped into piggery which is still pilfered by the Islamic religion that forbids its meat, cost of feeding the animal which is less challenging compared to that of ruminant animal and health rumor by medicals house, individuals and unacertained facts by health authourities about its cholesterol level which co
