THINK CORNER-01

Take ur time for thisz*** God blees Have you always wondered why some people are quick to say "i don't want to talk about it" whenever a new person in their life asks why they broke up with an ex? I guess most times people who are quick to waive the discussion might just have something sensitive they do not want to share because in many instances we tend to allow the feeling of initial gragra cloud our sense of reasoning and just fall in love with someone who was really a nightmare to his or her ex(es). No wonder why many companies ask for letter of reference from your past employer or someone that cantreally vouch for you. My advice to ladies or guys who seem to lose their sense of reasoning due to "desperation to get married" is to calm down and do a serious research on whoever they want to settle with.I believe if we all imbibe the culture of insisting that we speak one on one with an ex of our potential new partner or dig into their past, we will sav

One Week Into President Buhari’s Return To London, Fake News About His Health Blossoms

Ten days after Nigerian leader Muhammadu Buhari left the country for England to seek medical attention for his deteriorating health, an information war appears to have broken out between those who want him dead and those striving to counter that narrative with their own propaganda. On the first hand are those using various clones of international news websites to spread rumors that the president is dead. One of those phony websites last weekend made a parody of CNN, but while CNN has a .com domain, the fake website appeared with a .tv web address.  On the other hand of the battle are those trying to counter the rumors by spreading an old picture of a considerably-healthier President Buhari and Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury. The picture was actually taken when Mr. Buhari visited the Lambeth Palace in May 2016. The presidency has debunked the story about the president’s death, with Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity Garba Shehu taking to Twitter
