Ten Ways One Can Remain Poor In Life No Matter The Prayers

1.Never wake up early; Keep stretching and turning in bed until you get too hungry to continue dozing. If there are no bed bugs, why hurry to get up?

2.Never plan how to spend your money; Whenever you get money, start spending it right away and when it's finished, you try to count and recall how you spent it.

3.Don't think of saving until you have real big money; How can you save when you earn so little? Those telling you to save are not sympathetic to your burning needs.

4.Don't engage in activities usually reserved for the "uneducated; How can you, a graduate, engage in petty trade, network marketing or home-based production? That's for people who never went to school!

5.Don't think of starting a business until an angel comes from heaven and gives you capital; How do they expect you to invest before you get millions? Even though more than half the businesses in your town were started with little capital, you as a smart person can only start with millions.

6.Complain about everything except your own attitude and laziness; Blame the system, the government and the banks that refused to lend you money. They are all bad and do not want you to get rich.

7.Spend more than you earn; To achieve this, buy consumer products on credit and keep borrowing from friends and employers.

8.Compete in dressing; Make sure you're wearing the latest clothes. Intimidate the congregation with your trendy fashions every Sunday. Whenever your neighbour buys a new phone, you get one that is more expensive.

9.Get yourself a nice second hand car; that costs more than three times your yearly salary.

10.Give your children everything they ask for since you're such a loving parent; They should not struggle for anything because you do not want them to suffer that way, they will grow up lazy and hence poor enough to ensure they can't help you at old.

7 easy ways to avoid the annoying and frustrating Lagos Nigeria traffic

If you are familiar with Lagos, then you would know that the only thing synonymous to Lagos is the traffic. Forget the bubbling and bustling part of the city; you could always feel like a place is bustling with life when you have money to spend.
Therefore, take your money, find a cool place and start to spend there to make it the bubbling city you have always known. But really, the traffic in Lagos is evil. At this point, I’m starting to think this traffic is not made by God. What sort of traffic makes you sit on some wooden bench in a ‘danfo’ and remain there for as long as five hours in a stand still position? Again, what sort of traffic frustrates you and makes you sweat like a Christmas goat because the bus would not just move and you can be sure the wind would not blow. With the present fuel hike, the traffic seems inevitable as the roads are constantly clogged and it is hard to travel a short distance and not encounter one on the way. If you are a Lagosian, then you would know that this annoying traffic has made many lose their lives as they could not make it to the hospital in time to be saved, while some lost the chance to be gainfully employed because they got late to their interview centre. Without wasting much time, we present to you the best way to beat Lagos traffic and make the most of the city:



1. Leave your house four hours before the set time of appointment

If you have an appointment, please leave your house like four or five hours before the set time. You would be on the safer side by getting to the venue before time. Going out in Lagos these days is hectic; one can never really tell what could be happening on the road. If a trailer has not fallen, then you can be sure there would be a mad queue on the road because of those buying fuel.

2. If you are mobile. 

Make your car your home.There are some situations whereby, you would know you would not be able to get to a place before the time you ought to be there. In a situation like this, when you leave your house very early, ensure your car has the basic things you will need as you may have to sleep in it.




3. Get a job next to your house.

At this point, surviving is the major point of concern. Just any job will do as this would totally save you the stress of boarding a bus in the first place. While taking this option, ensure that your new office is very close to your house. 4. Do not go out at all.

4. Do not go out at all
Another option is to forfeit everything and not step out at all. Staying indoor would save you the stress of being held up in traffic. You could also afford to do as you please; eat, sleep and eat more. Do not even bother thinking about watching movies while you are home. Electricity has become a luxury the country can no longer afford. But who knows, you may just be lucky.





5. Leave Lagos When every other option has failed and you feel like you have run out of options.

Please leave Lagos. It is not by force. Go back to your village; almost everyone in Lagos came to hustle in the first place. If the city becomes unbearable due to the traffic, then leave. When there is life there is hope.

6. Get good rubber shoes

When you have made up your mind that the notorious Lagos traffic cannot send you packing to the village, then buy yourself one or two pairs of rubber shoes. This should always be with you as you never can tell when you may need to step down from the bus and start to trek.

7. Learn to fly

If you are by chance a witch, this is the time you need to use your powers wisely. Avoid trying to teach your neighbor’s daughter the lesson of her life by working against her progress. Instead, invest in yourself and use your powers to fly everywhere you want to go in order to avoid traffic. Use the magic word and you are at your destination. Also, use your powers to make fuel land in your house without paying.

He is suffering from an extremely rare genetic condition known as Epidermodysplasia Verruciformis,or "Tree Man" disease, which causes extreme wart-like lesions across the body.

"I don't think I can sleep tonight. For a poor fellow like me from a remote part of the country, this is too good to be true," he tells CNN from his bed.

For any first time visitor, it's hard to appreciate Bajandra's reality. He has tree-like branches growing out from all over his fingers, palms and feet, the sight of which would make most people squeamish.

Civil servant who did no work for six years found out by officials preparing to reward him for 'long service'

A Spanish civil servant who did no work for six years has been fined almost €27,000 (£21,000) after his long absence was finally noticed.

Officials in Cádiz were preparing to hand Joaquín García an award for long service when inquiries revealed the true extent of his contribution to the local authority.

In 1990, he was given a €37,000-a-year post at the Aguas de Cádiz public utilities provider, Spain’s El Mundo newspaper reported.

Jorge Blas Fernandez, who served as the city’s deputy mayor from 1995 to 2015, said he was given an office in the municipal building and no more was heard for more than a decade.

“We thought the water company was supervising him but that was not the case,” he added.

“We found out when we were about to present him with a commemorative plaque for 20 years of service.”

Inquiries with the manager of Aguas de Cádiz, who had an office opposite, revealed he had not seen Mr García for several years and when Mr Blas phoned his absent employee, he allegedly “could not answer” questions on what he had been doing.

A legal case was launched in 2010 alleging he had not done a day’s work since 2004, despite continuing to collect his €37,000 (£29,000) annual salary.

After a protracted lawsuit, Mr García, lost his appeal at a Cádiz court on Thursday and will have to pay his fine, which is the largest possible, The Times reported.

Mr García denied the allegations, claiming that he turned up each day but found there was no work to do.

Asked why he did not report the situation, he said he had a family to support and feared it would be difficult to find another job, so read extensively and became an “expert on the philosopher Spinoza”.

The 69-year-old was not fired from the post because he had already retired.

US State execute oldest inmate on death-row prisoner before his 73rd birthday

US state, Georgia executed its oldest death-row prisoner early this morning at 12: 46 am, just days before his 73rd birthday for murdering a clerk of a convenience store.
The septuagenarian, Brandon Jones, was given a lethal dose of injection at a state prison in Jackson, where he has already spent more than 36 years behind bars for the 1979 murder.Analysts say Jones’ case is an example of the “double punishment” faced by many death row prisoners who are made to spend decades in solitary confinement in anticipation of death.

Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer last year lashed out against “unconscionably long delays that undermine the death penalty’s penological purpose.”

Jones and his co-defendant Van Solomon, both African Americans were sentenced to death for killing a white gas station store clerk during a robbery.

A police officer told the court that he saw Jones close the door to a room in the back of the convenience store and, not long after, heard four gunshots. The officer said he went into the room and found Jones and another man, Van Roosevelt Solomon. A short time later, authorities found the clerk’s body; he had been shot five times, and two revolvers were found.

Solomon died on the electric chair in 1985 whilst Jones denied shooting the clerk and prosecutors have never been able to determine who fired the shot.

Death penalty critics have argued that many death row inmates were never treated fairly because they were sentenced to death at a time when they lacked a satisfactory defense system and that if they were tried today, the outcome would be different.

Already four persons have been executed in the United States this year.

“Jones’s case raises questions of proportionality and discriminatory application of the death penalty,” the Death Penalty Information Center said in a statement.

Jones, who would have turned 73 on Valentine’s Day, refused the opportunity to request a final meal ahead of his 7:00 pm (0100 GMT) execution on Wednesday.

Attorneys for Jones had petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday to step in, filing two stay requests but the justices rejected both petition without any recorded dissents.

Jones was executed early Wednesday (February, 3 2016) morning at 12:46 a.m. according to state corrections officials. He took a final prayer and recorded a statement, they said.
