It's okay to feel tired, but it is not okay to feel hopeless. Hopelessness is not your doing, it is an infection from psychic vampires. Get juiced up and be consistent even if failing in the eyes of the world.

Of recent, the super cop has been seen frolicking around the super rich in the country. The young and exuberant especially. Such public appearances were unhealthy for him. But something must have compelled him to identify with the rich and powerful youths. FBI tried to pin him down, but he got a little break.
This time is the NDLEA, will he survive this? It is a dent and a smear he may never recover from, 'may'.

Bad fuel in circulation leaves Lagos, Porthacourt and Abuja in scarcity after being withdrawn. There's definitely a mafia behind the petroleum industry. How the fuel came in is a thing of concern. Was it imported by NNPC or smuggled by marketers to their stations? Nigerians are agitated and are fast loosing patience from the haloobaloo.

Nirsal Microfinance Bank NMFB is reminding those who took its loan to begin preparation for payback in earnest. How it will get back all the loans at this economic material time is a thing of wonder.
