Vote For a good Driver #2015Election

Pastor Sam Adeyemi said this on Sunday and I think it is valid.
Why are we disturbing ourselves about who should drive this car (Nigeria) when we've not agreed on where we are going?

Paraphrase:
Where we are going is far more important than who should drive us there!
Meaning if Nigerians (Christian/Muslims, Yoruba/Igbo/Hausa) will agree about whether this country as a vehicle should move us towards development, until then the driver is irrelevant.

The truth is that if we can agree on our destination, the job of the driver becomes cheaper, which anyone, sensible or with a clue of what it takes to set a car in motion can do.

It's clear they prioritize their own convenience over the needs of the people. We mustn't be naive to think they have our best interests at heart. It's imperative for us, the citizens, to organize and protect our own interests. Unity among us is paramount, transcending divisions based on religion

The Merchant of Venice

I got to the point of deliberately using movies as an extension of my library. It was 2 weeks to the exam and the book "Merchant of Venice" would not enter my skull no matter how hard I tried, it was a book written by Shakespeare and like the usual Shakespeare style of writing this would be a bit technical also because of its settings (in literature setting means the actual place and time of an event). This literature is centred around the old Italian environment. So there were many terminologies used in English that were unclear because of the Italian twist. Don't forget it was 2 weeks before the WAEC (West African Examination Council) Exam.  The Twist - So my beautiful literature teacher got informed that there was a premiere of the Merchant of Venice book (the movie) at another school and gave us the update. It was the needed update very sure than any 'maga or fraudsters' update would rely on. It was a turning point in how I would begin seeing and interacting w
