SUCCESS

Success is what crowns efforts of people.It is a determinant of people's standards of living.It is a gift from God.It does not depend solely on the events of the past.But it determines the events of the future.
Success is a park that leads to a whole journey to conditional survival.It is fairly a function of the struggle to succeed.This means that one's success is determined by his contribution to his endeavor.The bible records it that success is simply by chance.God gives success to whom he wills in His own appointed time.Nevertheless it does not warrant that human beings should be lazy as it concerns their quest for survival.Man has to buckle up so as achieve the best he could.He mustn't be satisfied always because of the success achieved any time.He will have to be disturbed perennially by the inadequacies of what he thinks is successful to him.He must have to poise for the greater good he deserves.
Success means crossing the horizon of failure.

What happen today automatically becomes a history tomorrow...ANI EZEKIEL K.

I have seen a precious thing in life.I have also dealt with people who mean more than the world to me.I am also indebted to the people who make thing happen so well in their world.I know the people whose cost is far beyond the most precious jewel on earth.And this class of people are called women...ANI EZEKIEL K.

THE ROLE OF THE YOUTH IN THE REBRANDING NIGERIA PROJECT.

Currently in the president Alhaj Musa Yar'Adua administration under the chairpersonship of the honorable minister of information and communication,the country Nigeria is undergoing re branding.This is due to the wrong impression about the country Nigeria in the world over.The country was in the time past acclaimed the world third most corrupt country.So to save our country from the ugly perception,the president,as part of his seven point agenda,brought up a project he termed re branding Nigeria project in conjunction with the ministry of information and communications.
This project is like a fight.A fight comparable to that of the fight for independence.Our forefathers fought for independence and won it.But now the problem is not the oppressions experienced by our people during the colonial era because of the fight for independence but ways of sustaining the sovereignty of the country.
Re branding Nigeria is not an easy project but it is possible because we can achieve it.All we need to do first is to understand the core meaning of the concept very well.
But we must understand that this project cannot be feasible if certain grades of citizens like the youth,the teachers,the commuter drivers and their conductors,doctors and nurses,students in the university,market women,traders in the market etc.
The youth comprises the young men and women whose age is between 15-30 years.They are the engine house of the development of any country.They are the no-do-withous in the governance of the country.They are the driving force of the economy of our nation.Nigeria as a nation cannot undergo complete re branding without the youth.The youth contributes about 60% of the gross domestic product (GDP)of this nation.Also about 65% of the working population of the country is made up of the youth.So,attention must be paid to their activities more than any other interest group

As much as possible,young people should not be allowed to roam the streets joblessly.To avoid this,one of those reasons why youngsters are oftenm found in the streets is the incessant strike action among teachers in the federation.The federal government should make effort to see that teachers in the primary,post-primary and tertiary institutions are paid as at when due.To control youth's involvement in political thuggery,government should provide them with gainful employment avoid them being idle during electoral periods.To curtail youth's choice of motor park touting, government has to reform the road transport sector of the economy so as to maintain effective management in our motor parks.The youth should be well oriented so as to understand that migration to foreign lands cannot do us any reasonable good.They should understand that their limitless effort in Nation building especially in terms of industrialization is not neglected.They should change their mind set as regards their perceptions about the events in the country.Even mere citing of the prophetic stanzas contained in our national anthem reminds us the youth that the labour of our leaders past shall never be in vain if only we can change our mind and attitude.And also if only we can change our mind set towards our nation.All hands must be on the deck.Until these things are done,the re branding Nigeria project will always appear to the world like a mirage.It will come to futility.

STUDYING PHYSICS IN A UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURE ?

Agriculture is an art as well as a science.Any university that undertakes programs in Agricultural science related disciplines has as a matter of fact to as well undertake the study of related science and arts courses.In a particular reference to Nigerian academic system,there are three universities of agriculture in the country.It may interest one to know that virtually all the universities of agriculture undertake agricultural related science and art disciplines.Courses such as Physics,chemistry,in short all natural sciences as well as all aspects of engineering are of paramount importance to an average agricultural science students.
The question as to whether these courses should be studied in universities of agriculture should not arise.This is because agricultural science students need these courses to help prepare them well for in debt understanding of their courses.
A pure agricultural scientist as a scientist makes use of those scientific methods in production and research which natural scientists such as a Physicist also use.Taking these two courses; Physics and Agriculture,both are related in very many ways.Physics has contributed much to agricultural development.Areas where they are related includes the following:
There is an area in Physics called soil physics otherwise called agrophysics.This area studies the physical properties of the soil.It studies the effects of the physical variables such as temperature,pressure,humidity etc. on soil culture.
With emphasis on the state and the transport of soil matter such as water, energy and even nutrients in the soil.
The sud discipline to this is the soil mechanics.It undertakes the to study the process of determining the soil properties such as the water holding capacity, soil aeration bulk density,soil permeability,shear strength, soil pressure,soil texture, soil temperature etc.
Advancement in areas of Physics are used to improve the methods of planting,harvesting ,preservation, processing and storage of agricultural products.
Therefore as we can see now from this little treatise that questioning the existence of a Physics department in a university of agriculture is a step in the wrong direction.You can even attest to that.

UNFORGIVING SPIRIT:THE WORST ENEMY.

The difference between man and other lower animals is man's ability to think higher than them (the other animals)Human beings are expected to live higher above all the living things on earth that's one of the reasons why our relationship with the creator is deeper than the other creatures.The intimate nature of our relationship with God has made it that He gave us some rules to observe in our lives.The greatest of all the commandments God gave us is to solidify our relationship with one another by stretching the band that holds us together.This simply put means to ensure that we be inn good terms with one another as we are with ourselves.It is natural that from time to time man deviate from the set rules that guides our relationship with our creator God and with our fellow human beings.
However that is not always the case owing to the fact that nobody born of a woman is perfect except Jesus Christ.As long as human beings breadth we must at times offend each other.Anyway this does not mean that we have to live reckless lives just because we have a reason to justify our misgivings.The holy book of God records it that nobody is a righteous, not even one.
We must learn to let go whatever be the bad feelings we develop from the unraisable behavior of our neighbors.Christ in his pilgrim life on earth set before his followers new testament rules that outweighs the old Mosaic law of tit for tat. He therefore urged His followers the Christians to be averagely peaceful in their life they live.He told them to return good for evil,water for fire,cold for heat instead of the opposites.When His disciples engaged Him with argument of the umber of times one can be offended before he recoils to retaliate.In His answer to their questions He told them that if anyone can pile up the sins of his neighbor up to seventy times seventy times then the person can retaliate.
Going by statistics it is not practically possible for one to continue piling up the wrong deeds of the other till it reaches up to that number.So the best thing to do in the very first place is just to forgive in the spirit of love. In another instance He was asked what His reaction would be like if someone walks up tom Him and unleashes a dirty slap on His face.He then finalized His teachings on forgiveness by charging then to show the next cheek. In our human reasoning moral theology say's if anyone slaps you instead of showing the next cheek,a better thing to do is just to leave the person and the place and run away.But in cases where the antagonist is not even ready to let the run then a decision of returning a harassing slap could be perfectly taken... to be continued latter.

GIVING LIFE A MEANING...

If you must succeed in life you have to describe vividly what you want in life.Next is that you introduce the suitable catalyst so as to help you achieve your vision in life...ANI EZEKIEL K.

You have to bring to your mind the quantity and quality of raw material you need to actualize your dreams...ANI EZEKIEL K.

Pursuit is the principal thing.You can neither possess what you have failed to pursue nor capture what you have failed to picture...ANI EZEKIEL K.

The difference between a Physicist and an engineer is their level of imagination.Imagination is better than knowledge...ANI EZEKIEL K.

As a modern man,you have to practice back-from-the future thinking so that the sky will not be your limit but your starting point...ANI EZEKIEL K.

The quality and quantity of life you will live tomorrow is a function of the quality and quantity of your contribution in the life you live today...ANI EZEKIEL K.

ALL HOPE NOT LOST.

Amidst toils and disappointments
When patience is the last resort
And friends despised and forsaken you
At such times when faith is tested
In trials and tribulations abound
All hope's not lost.

When everyone seems to be against you
Your best friend became your greatest enemy
Failure has become your vision
And poverty your only song
When peace is far from your domain
All hope's not lost.

When hunger is your chocolate
and thirst a daily event
Borrowing makes you sorrow
And trust scarce in your dictionary
All hope's not lost.


When all goals turns to dreams
Sleeplessness an ailment
Dusk and dawn lengthens
Church becomes your home
Problem seems unsolved
All Hope's not lost.

When temptation a regular visitor
Troubles are passers- by
Peacefulness of mind a see- it- once
And walls falling on you.
When it seems nobody cares
All hope's not lost.

YOU MEANT A LOT TO HIM TODAY.

As a highlighted young guy of this age, I never knew I was going to be admitted in such a world class universites like the University of Ibadan, Nigeria.Immediately I finished my secondary school (high school) I was as if I were aimless owing to the financial situation of my of my family.I sought help from my relatives which I ended up in dissappointment.I felt so dejected and devasted.At a point I started praying for God to take my life instead I will be alife and watch my destiny buried and forgotten just because of financial paralysis.
As my luck may have it,I ran to my father's friend who having understood my family problem decided to take it upon himself to see to my upbringing.Right now I am comfortably admitted in my dream department to study my dream course medicine and surgery in my dream university University of Ibadan Nigeria.It's the lord's doing.I believe He can do it for you.
What I want to tell readers of this little message is this "someone is out there looking for your help today'.You are the only hope of that boy,that girl, man or woman.He/she looks onto you as his/her last redeemer on earth.He needs you to survive today to achieve his goals in life.It might be your turn to be helped tomorrow.Help that person today you will never regret doing so.
