Cooked shrimp on a plate. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Have you ever wondered what a plate of cooked shrimps tastes like??? 

Yea, i said shrimps !! 

Let's bring it home. The western world knows it as Shrimps, but we Africans know it as CRAYFISH !!! 

Yes, that's what it is called, and i am proud to say, in my local dialect it is known as Ayiya or Oporo !!! ( I am proudly Ibo if you must know..) 

Now, back to my earlier question, 

Have you ever wondered what a plate of cooked crayfish tastes like ?? 

In my bid to spice it up, i could add some Stockfish to it, yea,... it's called okporoko in my local dialect and it has this strong flavor and aroma it adds to your meal !!! 

Garnished with Stockfish and a little of scent leaf to spice it up, ginger, onions, seasoning, and a pinch of salt in a little volume of water depending on the quantity of shrimps you're cooking , cook for 3 minutes on your gas cooker and your shrimps are ready to be served !!! 

WAIT !!!! 

The final product. The meat part of the shrimp was tender and cooked just enough, and the heads tasted like vodka. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Dont be in a haste to consume, ...

First, take a deep breath, draw in the wonderful aroma that's almost intoxicating,.. yessss !!! that's it!! 

Now take a spoonful, slowly,.... into your mouth. 

Tell me, what did it taste like?

POSITIVE THOUGHT (part 2)

POSITIVE THOUGHT (part 2)

I come from Imo-State in Nigeria where ones status is assessed by economic clout. Paupers have no place in the gathering of the affluent. For you to speak in a gathering of people, you must be financially afloat. Another thing that can make you speak is when you are closely linked with an affluent individual either by blood or otherwise. I know that in some areas it is not like this. There is tacit disregard for the poor and as such they are allowed to air their views. In truth, the poor and deprived in Nigeria have no say. If you are not linked with the Dangote's of this world, or The Otedola's, The Atiku's, The Obansajo's, The Tinubu's, The Saraki's, The Adenuga's to mention but a few, who will hear you out?? This is the bane of our country because just as fools can make suggestions that baffle the wise, so also can the poor render suggestions far more beneficial than that of the rich.
The poor is seen as myopic and leprous and that is why there is massive disarray in the scheme of things. Among the poor class are millions of intellectuals who have been in citadels of learning. Their intelligence has not been propagated due to unemployment. Many are intellectually sound but have not gotten the opportunity to contribute to national growth and development as a result of unemployment. I once attended an interview in Uyo where a Master’s Degree Holder wanted to work in a hotel as a security man. He did not even get the job. What a pity. Let me not go too far, I take Lagos as a case study. One day, an Okada rider conveying me from Ikotun to Egbeda in Lagos told me that he has a Master’s Degree in Economics. This was because he got into an argument with the police on harassment on the high way. In the course of our journey, he parted with Two Thousand Naira because he rode one way in order to beat the menacing and excruciating traffic. He told me he schooled at the University of Nigeria Nsukka but has been looking for a job for the past three Years. This was in the year 2013. The guy spoke fluently and this made me to inquire about his personality. He confided in me that his Elder Brother who studied International Relations in another Southern Nigerian University was a transporter owning Two Twenty – Two Seater buses plying the Enugu – Onitsha express road. This is indeed tenacity of purpose but don’t you think that our nation need such men in the areas of study ? To be candid, there are many of them like these two who could contribute immensely to national growth and development.
I noticed that most of our young men are commercial cyclists (Okada riders) and tricycle operators (Marwa Keke drivers). Chei! What is this? Check out our ladies, most have joined what I tag the flesh trade, if  you know what I mean?.. I weep because of the rate of involvement. Where the amiable mothers of tomorrow will come from?!!
Whether circumstantial or otherwise indecorous and promiscuous females can only beget a rather licentious corrupt and debase offsprings for a nation that is already on its knees. This will form the crux of my next presentation to my worthy readers. I am writing this article on my verandah. It is May 1st and workers day. I cannot join the millions of workers out there to celebrate because my purse is lean and I’ve got a slight headache. There are many like me out there and I commiserate with them. There is a disruption as I write as a result of a slight controversy. I drop my pen and go view what’s up. Behold two fighting children between the ages of twelve and fourteen respectively. I hear one saying the other intruded on his eba having finished his. I see a man of about fifty years wielding a cane and a woman probably the children’s mother pleading for the man to spare them. There was about a crowd of ten mainly passersby and tenants who stayed back because of the May day holiday. There is no electricity otherwise everyone would have been in doors watching television or playing music on their sound system. You can imagine the confusion that cropped up due to a meal? Brothers fighting each other and father wanting to beat up children due to their food being insufficient. Where are you reading this write up from? Are you in Jamaica, Pakistan, Indonesia, Kenya, America, London, Australia, Congo, Ghana, Cameroon, Austria, Chad, Germany or any other part of the world? As a citizen or as a visitor, this is the state of our nation !! We are hungry. There is no fuel, no jobs, no electricity and no truth in the land and worse still no hope for the children. There is too much window dressing that does not profit us. Pray for us not to go extinct. Let us tell ourselves the truth !

The change we clamored for has become our bane. Perhaps alchemy will help us. The lucky ones among us have since taken their families abroad. Their children and wards are studying in Universities abroad while we remain here and bite our dirty fingers and swallow polluted saliva due to poor, incompetent, rapacious and insensitive leadership. The lure of filthy lucre is the bane of our leaders. Who will save us? There are many things to talk about. Keep faith with this site. We promise you a myriad, no – a fusillade of true tales. When we expunge them our body shall be light and our conscience will be assuaged and we shall continue to plod on in fabricated hopes not knowing when the next meal will come. Meals of political tumor and social leukemia spiced with ethnic imbalance and economic miasma.

Till then, let's keep hope alive !!

CHANGE OR PUNISHMENT

CHANGE OR PUNISHMENT

Americans asked for change in their last general elections and they got what they asked for.

 Now bring the same scenario home to Nigeria where the same slogan was used during the campaigns of the now ruling APC party.

 It is now clear what the APC party stands for in the Nigerian political space.

Today, Nigerians are experiencing Hardship,Pains,Agony and oppression.

The picture below speak for themselves... 
what's your intake???

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here in Nigeria we are forced to live the life we don't want to live;

You are forced to eat what you don't want to eat

You are forced to accept what you don't want to accept

You are forced to vote whom you don't want to vote

You are forced to live your life in FALSEHOOD

The APC GOVERNMENT IS A FAILED GOVERNMENT !!!
