  Let me start by throwing a bomb shed, don’t crucify me yet just hold on and read carefully. ‘’Pride is not just exalting yourself beyond expectations but also debasing yourself beyond expectations’’. When you exalt yourself above normal, feeling better than others like we are on top of the world and no one can stop us, that is pride quite alright but that is just one the characteristics of pride. Timidity, shyness, low self-esteem is also a manifestation of pride.   Pride is not only thinking we are better than others; pride can be thinking we are worse than others or just being self-conscious. It doesn't matter if self is always exalting itself or if it's debasing itself. It's all self-centeredness, which is pride. Only by pride cometh contention meaning pride is the only thing that causes contention. (Contention in other words is strife, dispute, anger, disagreement etc.) It's not what others do to us that make us angry; it's the pride insi...

Freedom can be enjoyed by individuals but only in and through the community’’. ‘’Freedom is the will to be responsible to ourselves’’.

  A TIME TO KILL Four corners, two enemies, Mr. A on his own free will allows Mr. B to escape after dominating three of the four corners, I asked why. He replied; allow your enemies to escape if you can, Doing so you already won. Elucidating further he said; the objective of war is to WIN not to KILL. He said saefhenryosas, this I say unto you; As long as you are alive, you will always have enemies. It’s inevitable. Kill a man today, his son becomes your enemy tomorrow and his son’s son’s for your son’s son’s. So WIN not KILL. Again I asked; what if Mr. B comes back to kill you? Then die he replied, if you don’t want to die, kill him mercilessly. At least you gave him a chance. Kill the loser and let his sons continue the fight.

Devaluation of naira means official lowering of the value of naira within a fixed exchange rate system, by which the apex monetary authority (Central Bank of Nigeria) formally sets a new fixed rate with respect to American dollars. In developed nations, when currencies are devalued, it encourages exports because the prices of local products serve as an incentive for foreign buyers, in the process they earn foreign exchange, increase production and create additional jobs.

Also, with exports more viable and import more costly, we expect to see higher exports and lower imports which will reduce balance of payment deficit. Nigeria is supposed to earn more naira for her exports like oil which would give room for greater elasticity to fi...
