When I hear people quote that #proverb I always cringe a bit. Not at the barbarity of it, although that is cringe worthy, but at the apparent misunderstanding of the difference between obedience and discipline. It seems many people, especially those religious people who subscribe to the admonition of this proverb, simply do not understand that these are two very different ideas. So I'd like to break it down for you if I may.</h4>
<h4 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin: 0.83em 0px; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #741b47;"><br />Obedience can be won through violence.</span></h4>
<h4 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin: 0.83em 0px; text-align: left;">
 A person can have not only their physical but also their mental will bent through force into submission to another. That person will do what they're told, not out of respect or an understanding of why it is appropriate, but solely out of fear. The same people who mistake obedience for discipline also often mistake fear for respect. Or in the least do not care if they are feared or respected as long as they are obeyed. These men who think like that also tell us that their god thinks like that and it has become the backbone of nearly almost all religion. According to these men god wants only your obedience and is willing to torture you for eternity to get it. This may give many a reason to be obedient, but it certainly hasn't made for a more disciplined society. In fact, this idea has led many to the conclusion that it's not a crime if they don't get caught. It is a system built on the notion of consequence alone.</h4>
<h4 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin: 0.83em 0px; text-align: left;">
<u><span style="color: red;">Discipline however is very different.</span></u></h4>
<h4 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin: 0.83em 0px; text-align: left;">
 A disciplined person can be trusted to do what is right regardless of consequence or whether they're being watched or not. With obedience one must feel as though they're under constant surveillance, which of course gave rise to the notion of a god that is always watching. In order for obedience to work, there must always be consequences. Discipline however is about education. It's about teaching someone why certain things are true. Of course there are consequences to our actions, but these should not be the driving force behind our behavior. Nor should a reward be expected simply for doing what is right. A man who is disciplined will need no incentive or prodding to do the right thing. He will simply do it solely because it is right. He will avoid doing things which are detrimental simply because they are detrimental.</h4>
<h4 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin: 0.83em 0px; text-align: left;">
<span style="color: purple;"><span style="background-color: #cfe2f3; color: black; font-size: 10.5755px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 15.8633px;">Whoever spares the rod hates their children, but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline them."  Proverbs 13:24</span><br />As I said, discipline is about education.</span></h4>
<h4 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin: 0.83em 0px; text-align: left;">
 It's about giving a person a rationale for making positive choices without using intimidation or coercion. The only real way to do this is to teach a person ethics and why ethics are important. Positive and negative reinforcement techniques like reward and punishment work well enough if all one is seeking is obedience, but they do not instill an idea of ethics and morality in a person which extends to all aspects of their life. Just like a dog who is trained to perform for a treat, when there is no incentive or punishment for disobedience the person has no reason to continue to behave.</h4>
<h4 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin: 0.83em 0px; text-align: left;">
<br />It never fails that at least once a month I will see a Facebook acquaintance post something to the effect of, "My parents used to beat hell out of me and that's why I have respect for others." This statement and others of it's ilk are fallacious in the extreme and not worth the air expelled to say such nonsense. If we're going to be honest, what is really being said is that you are polite and respectful to others because your parents taught you that if you aren't someone is liable to beat your ass. Now I don't know about you, but I call that extortion under threat of punishment.</h4>
<h4 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin: 0.83em 0px; text-align: left;">

<h4 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin: 0.83em 0px; text-align: left;">
<br />My parents spanked me too and what it taught me was that when you get angry about something you hit it until it does what you want. It taught me, rather incorrectly, that violence can solve problems. It also taught me that it's only wrong if you get caught which is an idea that a great many people seem to indulge. In all honesty I've never had even one ounce of respect for any person who has ever brought violence to me. The people I do respect are those who had the patience not to resort to violence, but instead strove to teach me why I should behave and act in a way that is conducive to my own wellbeing and the wellbeing of others.</h4>
<h4 style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin: 0.83em 0px; text-align: left;">
<br /><i style="background-color: #ffe599;">I think a lot of the problem here has to do with terminology.</i></h4>
<h4 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin: 0.83em 0px; text-align: left;">
 You see, when we use the word discipline to describe punishment we're inviting confusion. By the time punishment is necessary we've already failed at instilling discipline. All punishment is good for is reminding us that there are consequences to our actions, but as I've said those consequences can not be the driving force that motivates our behavior. If it is, then we can say that we are little more than dogs who won't shit the rug in front of others, but if no one is looking we'll drop a deuce pretty as you please.</h4>
<h4 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin: 0.83em 0px; text-align: left;">
<br />The mantra of many parents has often been, "because I said so". I heard those words more often than I can remember growing up and most often it only instilled a greater sense of wonder at why I should not do those things. Because of this I've done many things in my life that I likely never should have done. But I wasn't ever given a good rationale as to why I shouldn't do those things, and in the absence of a good reason not to do these things I ended up putting myself in very bad situations. The only plus side to this is that I have the experience of making these mistakes and having learned from them.</h4>
<h4 style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin: 0.83em 0px; text-align: left;">
<br /><span style="color: #cc0000;">As a parent myself, I strive to offer my children true discipline.</span></h4>
<h4 style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.6em; margin: 0.83em 0px; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white;"> They will never hear the phrase, " because I said so", and they will not be beaten into obedient submission. They are always given valid reasons for doing what I ask and valid explanations for the questions they ask. They are not forbidden from questioning what I say, but in fact are encouraged to do so. The reason for this is simple. I want to be respected, not feared. I want to know that my children will do what is right not for fear of punishment, but simply because it is the right thing to do. Most importantly, I understand that my children are really just young human beings and they aren't a pet I've been charged with training in obedience. My first job as a parent is as a provider... but my second and equally important job is as a teacher. The best teachers always lead by example.<br />The Key to Discipline. </span><span style="background-color: yellow;">Thanks!</span></h4>

PASSION! An indispensible Element of True Leadership

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br />            According to Peter F. Dorker,
a foremost thinker and authority on the subject of leadership and management, #Passion is the discovery of a deep desire burn out of a conviction that renders
an individual, possessed by commitment to a divine and greater purpose in life.
Indeed; it is a controlling desire that exudes the boundaries of casual
interest of concern and transport the person into the realm of obligation in
essence, true leadership passion is the discovery of a believe, reason, idea,
conviction/course not just to live for but also to die for, which focuses on
benefiting the whole of mankind.<br /> Set differently, these components of leadership are the heart of influence
and a generator of the energy, resilience of a leader; it is anchored on the
personal result and willingness of the leader to sacrifice his interest and
comfort for the sake of a noble course that can impact in others a desire to
help achieve a defined goal or vision.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br />            This vital aspect of
effective leadership components was expressed in the lives of all great leaders
throughout history and identifies what separate them from their followers.<br />For instance, Nelson Mandela (Mandiba) one of the world most respected
leaders life purpose was the elimination of the policy of apathy and the
establishment of racial equality in South Africa<br />At his assessment, Mandiba explained his vision for his country thus “I
have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination.
I have cherished the idea of democratic and free society in which all persons
live together in harmony and equal opportunities; it’s an ideal which I hope to
live for and to achieve but if need be, it’s an ideal for which I’m prepare to
die”.<br />            </h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Unarguably, his vision
inspired not only millions of his country’s men and women but also countless
millions around the world. The same goes for Martin Luther King Junior, whose
passion for his country is encapsulated in his unforgettable speech “I have a
dream”.<br />Dr. King helps to change both laws and heart in America leading to greater
equality and freedom in the country.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br />There is many more exemplar leaders whose ideals are govern by the powers
of Passion; they include: Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, Regan, Churchill of
Great Britain and in the Bible we have the likes of: Paul, Nehemiah, Queen
Esther and kind David whose live long rationale was a desire to serve God,
restore the honor of nation and strengthen people politically and militarily.<br />Can this be said of leaders in Nigeria??? However, before now in Nigeria,
Our leaders followed their party manifestos with great passion and politics was
played on ideological device; as could be seen from the nations past political
performance which has only succeeded in launching ourselves to the progressive
circle which solitary generation’s expectation becomes the experience of the
next. Non-the-less, great minds like; </h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Chief Obafemi Awolowo, </h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
one of the most
articulated exponent of this moral purpose, which his political vision lays
more abundance and defined it as freedom from wants, ignorant, disease and
British rule. His emphasis on universal education, universal healthcare and
sole employment essentially summarize the political priority of a nationalist<br />            Indeed, the notion of a
state as an empowering force of human potential found expressing on our world’s
democratic socialism. The socialist impulse yield good fruits and united the
nation but today, our leaders have been driven purely by the pursuit of wealth
without sweat, squeezed from the remote oil-rich creeks as huge human and
ecological cost, again, others not driven by passion or political ideology move
back and forth in the political state decamping to one party or the other
seeking opportunity to grab power.</h3>

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /> Be that it may, the challenge before us now is to stare to the future with
great optimism, a future where terrorism , oppression and intimidation shall no
longer influence our choice of leaders for the component of true leadership
driven by Passion and motivated by vision and inspiration. Men & women,
divinely committed to switch the spare to hope & promise to success, which
is what Passion as an essential component of true leadership entails.               </h3>

effects differ greatly, some genetic defects act in an “all or nothing” way and
actually cause illnesses, while others simply increase susceptibility to them.
A growing number of illnesses are now known to be affected by genes like this;
they tend to run in families but often in a haphazard manner. Even if the
illness concerned affects mainly one six 1/6 (example ovarian or testicular
cancer), the genetic link can come from either the paternal or maternal side of

risk, the list of diseases with known family links is diverse and ever
increasing and it includes: breast cancer, skin cancer, colon cancer, ovarian
cancer, heart disease, osteoporosis, schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s thyroid

<span style="font-size: 20.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt;">Where
there’s a vulnerability to a disease, its development seems to depend on a
complex interaction between genes, as well as multiple environmental factors,
including infections, diet and lifestyle.<o:p></o:p></span></h2>
<h2>
<span style="color: red; font-size: 20.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt;">Sometimes, a single abnormal gene is so dominant; it is enough to
affect a person’s health. One example of this is the gene that causes familial </span><i><span style="color: red; font-size: 22.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt;">hypercholesterolemia</span></i><span style="color: red; font-size: 20.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt;">,
which prevents proper metabolism of fats, leading to sky-level cholesterol
levels and heart attack at a tender age, other serious illnesses such as
Huntington’s cholera and </span><span style="background: aqua; color: red; font-size: 22.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt; mso-highlight: aqua;">neurofibromatosis</span><span style="color: red; font-size: 20.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt;">
are thankfully becoming increasingly rare, due partly to genetic screening
during pregnancy.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<h2>
<span style="font-size: 20.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt;">        With some diseases, it may not matter if
you inherit a defective gene from one parent if the other half of the pair is
normal, inheriting the abnormal gene from parents can lead to severe illness and
a classic paradigm is cystic fibrosis, which results in a tendency to lung
infections and an inability to absorb nutrients.<o:p></o:p></span></h2>
<h2>
<span style="font-size: 20.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt;">Genetic
abnormalities such as the loss or gain of a whole chromosome do occur
surprisingly frequently but often result in miscarriage occasionally, though;
babies are born with major chromosome defects such as Down’s syndrome, which is
caused by an additional chromosome.<o:p></o:p></span></h2>
<h2>
<span style="font-size: 20.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 14.0pt;">At
present, you cannot alter the genes you are born with but screening, during
adolescence can provide an early warming, with advances in gene therapy, it may
soon be possible to either eliminate or replace the rogues responsible for a
few fatal diseases.<o:p></o:p></span></h2>

RIGHT METHOD OF CUBING YOUTH RESTIVENESS IN OUR SOCIETY TODAY

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br />          It’s a widely
held view that #Youth constitute the bridge between the past & the future,
thus a very salient force to reckon with in planning & the actualization in
the implementation of policies & programs especially those that precincts
on the provision of basic infrastructure; yet, <span style="background-color: orange;">YOUTH</span> are awfully neglected in
many issues occasioned & sometimes in representation at all levels of
governance.<br />That importance could represent two major facts, first to
become future leaders and that their size is not sufficient enough to attract
attention in any plan of action, especially plans aimed at reducing
restiveness, criminality, community service and development.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br />School of thought has it that <span style="background-color: orange;">YOUTH</span> in any given society
represent more than half of such a society making this group of young people
the largest that enters adulthood. Perhaps, it’s for this reason that United
Nations in the pass seven decades has observed the tradition of using the

<br />But the question may be asked, who is a YOUTH?</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #3f95c3; font-family: "arial" , "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 2.15em; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1em;">What do we mean by “youth”?</span></h3>
<h2 style="font-family: Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 1.05em; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;">
“Youth” is best understood as a period of transition from the dependence of childhood to adulthood’s independence and awareness of our interdependence as members of a community. Youth is a more fluid category than a fixed age-group.<br />However, age is the easiest way to define this group, particularly in relation to education and employment. Therefore “youth” is often indicated as a person between the age where he/she may leave compulsory education, and the age at which he/she finds his/her first employment. This latter age limit has been increasing, as higher levels of unemployment and the cost of setting up an independent household puts many young people into a prolonged period of dependency.<br />When carrying out its Youth Strategy, UNESCO uses different definitions of youth depending on the context.<br />For activities at international or at regional level, such as the African Youth Forum, UNESCO uses the United Nations’ universal definition.<br />The UN, for statistical consistency across regions, defines ‘youth’, as those persons between the ages of 15 and 24 years, without prejudice to other definitions by Member States. All UN statistics on youth are based on this definition, as illustrated by the annual yearbooks of statistics published by the United Nations system on demography, education, employment and health.</h2>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: 1.05em;">For activities at the national level, for example when implementing a local community youth programme, “youth” may be understood in a more flexible manner. UNESCO will then adopt the definition of “youth” as used by a particular Member State. It can be based for instance on the definition given in the African Youth Charter where “youth” means “every person between the ages of 15 and 35 years”.</span> </h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
 This question
becomes obligatory because the concept ”YOUTH” for now  seems to be very elastic in its characterization,
although the generally recognized and often used  terms as the definition of a YOUTH in
contemporary economic situation is with the intention of young people between
the ages of 18 and 40 years.</h3>

 Which ever group is taken as a matter of convenience; one thing is certain,

vulnerable to many influences and so deserve adequate attention, basic
education and should indeed be viewed as our hope for the future. It is aligned

<a href="http://www.unfoundation.org/who-we-are/impact/engaging-youth/?referrer=https://www.google.com.ng/" target="_blank">Read about United Nation's Programs Working with the YOUTHS</a><br />          Such a review
highlighted the fundamental flaws in national policy direction, political
leadership, economic considerations, environmental factors and socio-cultural
misplacement responsible for the prevailing apprehension over YOUTH inability
to contend with their future leadership claim as well as contemporary
challenges. Obviously, it is stating the truth that a greater percentage of our
YOUTH today lack some prospect to participate fully in the unfolding socio-economic
and political development due partly to the collapse of family values, lack of
basic education, poverty and absence of gainful employment.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br /> Specifically, its not
out of space to also attribute the challenge facing our YOUTH today to the dwindling
ecclesiastical leadership of the church especially now that prosperity seems to
have overtaken evangelism in the ever increasing quest for salvation, the
church established to preach forgiveness of sin, long suffering, faith, tithe,
salvation and love seems to have been bastardized with high propensity for
materialism which is also injecting bewilderment, instead of spiritual
direction for the <span style="color: #b45f06;">YOUTH</span> to follow, or how would someone explain a situation
where children who are suppose to be in school are found roaming the street and
causing tension and apprehension to the innocent people. In this regard, it
become necessary that parents as first teachers and moral foundation of YOUTH,
should shun the quest for materialism and other things pursued (if possible), a
situation which to an extend has brought about misplaced socio-cultural
benchmark in measuring success.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
 Obviously, it is the quest to get rich quick
that is now pushing many young people to associate themselves with nefarious
activities as observed within the Calabar Metropolis.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<br />          The truth is
that our society today applaud the thief and scorn honest people creating a
situation that merely ignite in the YOUTH the appeal to get rich quick at all
cost with little or no regard for procedures, principles and valued
orientation. This does not ogre well for sustainable growth and development of
the youth, humanity and the country especially if the core values are abhorrently
undermined.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
 That is why it has become necessary for government and other
relevant agencies to endow with enabling environment for the propagation of
core values to show off moral standard among our youth who should be groomed to
become tomorrow’s leaders.</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Nigeria in the west Africa scale has the highest number of
salvation seeking facilities, churches/mosques and other spiritual clinics that
would ordinarily have taken the burdens of inculcating moral values in our
<span style="color: lime;">YOUTH,</span> that why all hands should be on deck to eradicate all social menace by
what ever means perpetrated by youth in our country, in Africa and the entire
world.       </h3>

Hydro-electricity generation has fallen to 20% of capacity, making it difficult for the dams to operate.</div>

The power crisis has been made worse by problems at new natural gas plants, an energy ministry official told the BBC.</div>

The closing of the hydropower dams was beyond the government's control, said Badra Masoud, head of communication at the ministry.</div>

Ms Masoud said more people farming upstream from the dams was not helping the situation, as this reduced the flow of water.</div>

<span style="color: #222222; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5;">In the general public’s opinion, there is still a difference between people from Africa and the African #American. Slavery which lasted more than four centuries definitely annihilated the autochthons and played a major role in the spiritual schism between these distant relatives. The massive and industrial deportation of hundred thousands of people treated and traded like cattle in America and the Caribbean forced them to build a new identity in order to accommodate but especially to survive in their whole new environment.</span></h1>

<span style="font-family: Constantia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; text-indent: 0.5in;"> This was more so when suit was achieved without any bloodshed as
in reminiscence with some countries, there were also great expectations from
Nigerians that with the business of governance now in the hands of their
leaders, the administration of the country would be better handled and the entire
socio-economic landscape of the country would be transformed for the better.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Constantia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 115%; text-indent: 0.5in;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Constantia","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">          In this
regards, prominent Nigerians were already at the cockpit ready to ply the new
Nigeria to it highest level, this included leaders like: <span style="background-color: #ead1dc;">Chief Obafemi Awolowo</span>,
<span style="background-color: orange;">Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe</span>, <span style="background-color: #f1c232;">Sir Abubakah Tafawa Balewa</span>, <span style="background-color: #e06666;">Sir. Ahmadu Bello</span> and several
other eminent Nigerian leaders, when the baton did change hand, those leaders
along with others had lofty ideas which if implemented would’ve immediately
elevated Nigeria to the highest level in the committee of nations, these
includes free education at all level, the fostering of Nigerian unity, cultural
reformation, infrastructural development and more.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Constantia","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">However, most regrettably, these prominent Nigerians
permitted primordial concept to creep into their vision and destroyed their
sense of patriotism and focus on good governance initiatives,<b><i><span style="color: red;"> tribalism, greed,
corruption and squad media overcrowded their vision which eventually got
extinguished</span></i></b>. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Constantia","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The situation was fueled by the era of the oil boom when Nigeria
earned more money than it could profitably and meaningfully utilize; that was
when a political analyst in one nearby country made a statement, claiming that
“Nigeria's problem was not money but how to spend it” All these negative
tendencies ushered in discontents, disunity and civil strives culminating in an
unfortunate civil war which set the pace of development backed several steps.
The after shock of the civil war is still being felt in Nigeria till today.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Constantia","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;"> It’s therefore inconsequence of this misleading that there has been a
sustainable clamor for the emergence of politicians with good leadership
qualities to plot the affairs of the country and erase the fortune of the
nation from the present dept of socio-economic as well as political fabric.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<span style="font-family: "Constantia","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">These entire as
stated earlier were a direct result of poor leadership placing the wrong people
and the country suffered for it. This tough Nigeria which once prided itself as
the (Giant of Africa) to become unfortunately a sleeping giant thus enabling
other less endowed country to overtake Nigeria in developmental achievement,
this replicated the tale of the –hare and the tortoise, where tortoise won the
race because the hare having covered a comfortable distance in the race decided
to rest as a result of which the tortoise overtook him-.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Constantia","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">          Increasingly,
loud voices and clamor for change in various parts of the country have led to
emergence of some leaders with good leadership qualities who are now trying to
inject some changes into the nation’s developmental momentum; the voices of
these groups have been heard across the country which becomes lauder everyday.
It is an acceptable fact that changes is not achieved through complexity or
sycophancy by those who desire such change but under active participation in
the movement for change through various legitimate avenues. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Constantia","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%;">It’s therefore in this regards that the various groups
clamoring for change and indeed recognized leaders who have practically
demonstrated elements of change in their leadership activities should be
commended which in turn will inspire others to emulate and serve as
encouragement for greater successes. All efforts should be geared to supporting
the present administration in the country to sprout the needed change that
Nigerians are yearning for.       <o:p></o:p></span></div>
