A must read from Charly Boy: Escape from wilderness

 A piece from Charly Boy. Please read...

Does anyone know how I really feel right now? So alone and empty, God! how I feel the pain. If you're in the wilderness like me, then you know it can be insane. Here my eyes are bleeding tears and my smiles are protecting my fears. I can't even go around and fake happy, because I’m in stagnation and it is hitting me from all direction. There is this disturbing feeling that time is passing me by, yet I’m paralyzed, I can't move and I can't think too far. At nights I can't sleep too easy, my heart is sore and my mind perpetually clustered with things that leave me shaking. Oh God! Why? I have prayed, I have fasted but nothing has changed, and it's almost a year now. My dreams are nothing but nightmares of all the negatives in this wilderness. What's happening to me? Look at me, I have always enjoyed comforting and giving directions to people in pain, right now I can't even save myself and I have refused to take my own pills.

VP Atiku Abubakar Vs Political Commentator Kayode Ogundamisi

For those who don't know who Kayode Ogundamisi is, he is a social and political commentator, an activist and a blogger. So what happened was, former VP Atiku Abubakar granted an interview recently where he said he bought his mother a house when he was just 14 years old. Kayode saw the interview and thought it was silly and went on Facebook to express his opinion...

Kayode wrote:

"I bought my mother a home as a 14-year-old boy" Atiku Abubakar @atiku 
How did we end up with deluded characters as so called leaders in Nigeria. That former Vice President Atiku would have Nigerians believe he bought a house for his mother as a minor/child is a clear indication that Nigeria's problem is beyond human understanding.)

VP Atiku Abubakar saw his comments and responded on Twitter. See Atiku's Tweets after the cut...

Gunman kills 12 and injures 15 at Washinton Navy Yard shooting

Aaron Alexis (pictured right), opened fire and killed 12 people yesterday Monday September 16th at the Washington Naval Yard in Washington DC before being shot and killed by responding officers. The 34-year-old who worked as a civilian I.T contractor at the military base, entered the complex's cafeteria around 8.30am brandishing an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle, shotgun and handgun and began shooting. It is thought that he used another employee of the base's identification card to gain entry to the heavily secured Building 197, where he carried out his deadly attack. Aaron killed 12 people and injured at least 15, who are all in critical conditions.

Aaron, from Fort Worth Texas, served in the U.S. Navy for almost four years before being kicked out in January 2011 for 'misconduct'. The motive for the killing has not been revealed though there are speculations that it could be connected to his dismissal from the U.S. Navy. RIP to those who lost their lives.
