Understanding Will Make You Outstanding - Ahmed Nabil

If we can think enough, what we have is enough. The "channel" of understanding is the "remote" of outstanding. Understanding yourself is part of the purpose of your life, and it will represent your value. It is all about courage and understanding, not to mention a sense of purpose, hope, diligence, and the belief that you have special talents and skills to share. When you aren't getting the results you want, no matter how deep or complex, we must have it as tongue phrase that - "defining life is understanding life; and understanding life is the source of life. Understanding life is talking about your value, raising questions about the value of your value, and how you define yourself.
Believe it or not, you view the world and others through your own unique perspectives and understanding, rosy or complex, cumbersome or simple, fair or unfair, based on the fact that your lifestyle is the product of your thinking, and what you think; you tick. Overcoming the force of doubt about life and your self-worth must be served with diligence and understanding, as "ignorance" is "ignoring yourself", and "ignoring" yourself is the same as destroying yourself. 
"We share our imperfection if we are not ready to receive perfection", this special and timeless quote from my little skull ruled my wish and life entirely. So I talked about my victories, and how I faced to manage myself, because I don't believe "Had I know" will make you "know" when you are not ready to know. This, however, inspired me and helped build the foundation that enriched me, albeit I am not rich, but I am very optimistic. It wasn't some flip of the coin in the cosmos. When it is right for the right time for time, I will be right, doing the right thing, in the right place, with the right people, at the right time. I understand that sort of thinking. The fear of evil, inadequacy, and ignorance as a dangerous ailment, pushed me to trace the value of my life to understand the value of my life. It was excruciating. It was very clear, of course, that the process of growing; is the process of groaning.
Even if you define your value, keep hoping for the possibilities, appreciate your search, and be optimistic, because those who claimed the wheel of power and success achieved, because of faith not just hope. Pessimists can never trace their value, no matter how cheap it is to trace it. We can be our own harshest critics, depending on how we react, define and decide, not just in the approval of others but in the fulfilment of knowing that you are moving against your real move.
Part of the quote I formed through my skull is - "Anything about life is something about life". Yes, we learn humility when we fail sometimes, we learn pride from success when we decide to relent after victory, we learn simplicity when distracted sometimes, we learn commitment when we face obstacle, just as we learn trust from truth sometimes. It's one thing to define, and another to understand your definition. Your lifestyle is your definition of life. Too often we don't learn to understand, sometimes because of ignorance, and for some, arrogance. I'm satisfied that I've failed and persevered, I don't have to destroy the stem before I pluck the nut.
As I wrote in a recent column, "If you are too big to define your value, you are too small to understand your value". Friends and fans have pestered me lately with one or two questions. Asking how confidence and interest moved me, I answered, saying "Understanding will make us outstanding". !

State House of Assembly collected bribes from commissioner nominees

An N2.4 million bribery scam is rocking the Delta State House of Assembly. SaharaReporters learned that the Speaker, Monday Igbuya, and other members of the State House of Assembly allegedly collected N200,000 bribes from the twelve commissioner nominees forwarded by Governor Ifeanyi Okowa for “screening.” Confiding in a SaharaReporters correspondent, a senior management staff person of the State’s House of Assembly who did not want to be named disclosed that one of the commissioner nominees told him in confidence how the twelve nominees’ arms were twisted to pay N200,000 each. The ultimatum was that without the N200,000 none of them would be cleared by the lawmakers. However, the source said, “If you were around during their screening on the floor of the House, you would have noticed that all the nominees were only told to take a bow” and to go.

BUHARI: TURNING APPOINTMENTS INTO DISAPPOINTMENTS

   By Jaafar Jaafar Ponder over this Hausa proverb: “sawun keke ba’a gane gabanka”, which roughly translates to “a bicycle’s contact patch does not tell where it comes from or where it heads to”, and see how it aptly describes Nigeria’s president, Muhammadu Buhari. Bearing in mind the current realities in our polity, how would you, in your wildest dream, think the Secretary to the Government of the Federation will come from the North? The very North that has a President, a Senate President, a Speaker, a Head of Service, a Chief of Staff, a Chief Justice, and what not? While Mr. President is likened to the proverbial “sawun keke”, the pigmentation of his appointments may be likened to “birgimar hankaka”, literally meaning the wallow of a pied crow. When a pied crow wallows, the Hausa say, you will see both the white patch on its gullet and the black plumage that covers most of the bird’s body. In the appointment of the GMD of NNPC, President Buhari showed Nigeria...
