I was so surprised, when I heard
that the minster of power, Prof Barth Nnaji bowed out of office. I thought we
could only find such an attitude only in developed nations. Some media houses called
it “resignation”; Majority of PHCN staff tagged it “sack”, while an average lay

So, weather it was a sack or resignation, the fact remains that an office seat
was made empty and a vacuum was created. In which the prof acknowledged he did
voluntarily. But I believe they all ball down to interest from various quarters.

his wife, Comfort 42, Monday, 24; Patience, 21; and the eight-year-old
grandchild, Joy Odoh.Have you ever imagined why those
who are referred to as body guards are usually taller and bigger in sizes than
the men they are paid to protect? They deliberately engage in some body building
exercises to achieve this. They do this to win a psychological war whenever
they are in the midst of people. You feel intimidated and left with no option
but to stay clear of their path. But the amazing thing is that, the same size
of bullet that can kill a day old baby can also drop them. In short, you do not
even need to go through a rigorous experience to hit your target due to their
sizes.
