There was a workman leaving from work after a hard days job. He was pushing a wheelbarrow with a small package in it.
The security stopped him at the gate and asked "what is in the barrow?"
The work man replied that it was a package.
The security visibly angry now, told the workman, "yes I can see that, but I must insist on seeing what's in the package!"
Well, the workman said, "shey you know the saw dust that's on the ground after we finish working everyday? I needed some, so I'm taking it home".
The security man still insisted he open the package. He had no choice, had to open it.
And yes, it was just sawdust.
After checking thoroughly that there was nothing hidden anywhere inside the sawdust. The security had to let him go.
"Off you go", he said.
The second, third, fourth fifth, sixth, seventh day same thing happened.. and every time the security will insist on seeing what was inside the package.
This went on for a while, it became a routine for them until one day, the security man stopped him at the gate again,
and told him, "I know you're stealing something, I just don't know what it is. All this pretend you're pretending, I know it's just for show. If you tell me what it is, I promise not to tell anyone".
Then the workman looked at him for a very long time, and when he was sure he wasn't being played, replied, ",wheelbarrows!"😂😂😂

2nd Niger Bridge:
''I have my reservations about GEJ but on this matter, he did well. I have a self-funded documentary on the 2nd Niger bridge project by December 2014.
Truth is that every govt from Shagari era promised to do the 2nd Niger bridge but none did anything until GEJ.
His govt did the plan, survey (and all that) and then the ground breaking ceremony which I attended because I was around there at the time. All South East governors plus Delta state governor and all legislators were in attendance.
Immediately after, the construction started by
Julius Berger. I actually visited Julius Berger office to get permission to film the project. At the time GEJ left office, the foundation for all the pillars across the bridge were already laid.
In fact, my documentary was to be used for GEJ's second term campaign but it was

Asonumaka George Wakama an international investment banker speaks on the 2nd Niger Bridge.
''The process of starting the project feasibility EIA to completion of the Engineering design should be taken into account ..
As well as the procurement model which was a PPP between the
states /FGN as public sector partners and Julius Berger as private sector partners.As well as payment compensation for Right of Way to land and property owners along that corridor which was fraught with conflicts delays and fraudulent activities are part of the
project Take all these to account The PDP did 70% of the real hard work and handled the issues.
All this Government is saddled with is to manage the construction stage . . something that the money of the public sector side have been deposited.substantially by the last Government.

''Aregbesola was a federal House of Representative candidate for Alimosho, at the same time Tinubu was a Senatorial candidate for Lagos West.
Both of them were students of Primrose political caucus, headed by Dapo Sarumi.
Aregbesola was the DG of Asiwaju Campaign Organization
in 1999.A campaign organization that won the 1999 Lagos guber elections for Tinubu, and which made Tinubu Lagos state governor in 1999.After he was sworn in, as governor, Tinubu appointed Aregbesola among others who worked for his electoral victory, into political
positions.So, who really made who? And how did these APC kòmòkan (dummies) come about, Tinubu picked Aregbe from the gutter? Someone should please knock some sense into the empty heads of South West APC puppies.

''Your circle of Trust
There are times when we have disagreements with our friends. Things breakdown. It might bring out bitter feelings, anger and bile. For some, they fight dirty. All secrets during the friendship become revealed. They blab to all that will listen.
The desire is to hurt. I have experienced this with a friend and with an acquaintance. The acquaintance subtly tried blackmail. I did not need to drag myself with people that do not care. So I diffused the tension. With the friend, he revealed all plus extra.
There are really no secrets in life anyway. But I learnt.That it is wise to leave a space for a fight in friendships. So your friend will not have all the ammunition to kill you, should they choose to do that. The other lesson is being circumspect.

''Aregbesola and his tales by moonlight
He was in Ijebu Ijesha trying to stoke the crowd against Oyetola. Against the man that made him relevant. Aregbesola wanted his personal problem with Tinubu to become the problem of the voters.
Of the ordinary citizen that his government made poorer.When he enjoyed the support of BAT during his ruinous tenure as governor, he was happy to call Asiwaju leader. When from Lagos, he was made governor, he was cool. He plunged Osun into debts.
He instituted many populist programs of little benefits. Everything was about construction for him.After leaving, he sought to remain kingmaker. Osun state was to be his inheritance. Denied of that, he now sings songs of betrayal the same tune that supporters of Tinubu sing
