The ex minister of Information who was flown to India few weeks ago where she had been receiving treatment for an ailment suspected to be cancer died today 7 June 2014. She died at the age of 59.

Few months back, she turned up at CONFAB meeting looking frail and unrecognizable. Sad, she’s no more. Life is indeed full of ironies. She fought to get rid of harmful and fake drugs that kill, she passed on fighting an ailment no drug can really cure.

May her soul find repose. Amen

What would you do if your son did this?

Heard a man was refused entry after his son defaced this international passport. After travelling for hours, you get to your destination and discover your son had ‘redesigned’ this (beauty is in the eye of the beholder.lol) And worst still, they refuse you entry? Especially when you have an urgent meeting or important issues to attend to. For emotional people like me, the first thing is to sit somewhere and cry my heart out. We all know the rigours of applying and getting visas. Where will I start from? There’s no point scolding the kid if he’s below 2 anyways, he would never understand. Even at below 2, I’ll be tempted to smack the living day lights out of him.

Meet the man who walks backwards.

LoL! Stories we hear! Deep sigh! He climbs stairs, crosses the road, does everything backwards; He wasn’t born that way. Mani Mani took up the challenge of walking backwards in 1989 in a bid to stop violent acts and achieve peace in his country, India. To walk normally is now a snag for him as he’s claimed he’s forgotten how to walk forwards. (Is that not easy?)

“Walking normally is more of a challenge – my mind has forgotten how to do it. I have become very comfortable walking like this.My life has been full of struggles, sacrifice, achievements and protest so I have no issue continuing my backwards walking until we achieve world peace.’You can see on an international scale terrorism has increased. There are so many blasts and the youth are misguided.To condemn such incidents I have been walking backwards for 25 years. My only agenda is world peace.” He told AFP
