Still on the OBJ letter to Nigerian youths
I have deliberately elected not to comment frontally on former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s New Year letter to Nigerian youths, of all segments of Nigeria’s population, because the writer behaves like Satan preaching Christ to unbelievers! The statistics of woes, disasters and misfortunes heaped upon Nigerian youths during and after Ali Must Go alone confirms Obasanjo as an inveterate enemy of Nigerian youths. The National Union of Nigerian Students, NUNS, was banned and its leader, Segun Okeowo, and many other student leaders rusticated. Nigerian youths, beware! To quote the inimitable MKO Abiola: With a friend like Obasanjo, Nigerian youths do not need an enemy!

My poor toilet habit
I noticed that I only go to the toilet to excrete three times a week. I am worried in case this is abnormal because some of my friends usually go to the toilet three times a day. Sule (by SMS)The normal frequency for bowel movements can range from once a week to three times a day. What matters is if your habit changes, because everybody is different. It should be soft enough and formed enough that it should come out quite easily without straining.

Biden on defensive over classified documents | The Guardian Nigeria News - Nigeria and World News
US President Joe Biden said Thursday “a small number” of classified documents had been found at his private residence, prompting calls for a congressional investigation into the alleged mishandling of official papers. “People know I take classified documents and classified material seriously,” Biden told reporters Thursday. “They discovered a small number of documents with classified markings in storage areas and file cabinets in my home and my personal library. “When is the FBI going to raid the many homes of Joe Biden, perhaps even the White House,” Trump had earlier written on his social media site Truth Social. In a bid to defuse accusations of political interference, Attorney General Merrick Garland has named a Chicago federal prosecutor appointed during the Trump administration to review the lost Biden documents.
