I Need Your Support

URGENT APPEAL FOR SUPPORT 

Due to unforeseen circumstances and the emergency lockdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, 

I have become very broke and homeless and still in self-isolation in a guest house in Lagos where I am owing thousands of naira. 

The guest house will be shutdown tomorrow, because of lack of business and I will be stranded in Lagos 

The lockdown worsened my precarious situation by stopping my sources of incomes in the Nigerian film industry. Debtors who are owing me have become unreachable and not responding to my calls and messages.

All I need is N500, 000.

I am desperate and it is better to be a beggar than be an armed robber. 

Please, I need the support of every kind hearted person who can contribute whatever amount you can give me to survive my present ordeal.

If Whites Can Make It, Blacks Can Make It Too From Mountain View To Silicon Valley

Instead of Blacks to be whining about being underemployed and underrepresented in Silicon Valley and waiting for the tech giants to bridge the wide diversity gap for them to catch up with the privileged White in leadership, Blacks should breakthrough Silicon Valley by developing their own tech startups.

Kemi's posts are below in case you missed it.

In a statement released this night, Monalisa Chinda Coker, the Director of Communications of the AGN, said ordinarily the organization would not dignify Lala's ''repugnant and uninformed comment'' but it is compelled to explain the reason the some members visited Regina and her husband.

ALPHA MAN LIVE!
Saturday afternoon on July 4, 2020. Alpha Man is calm, cool and confident against all odds of these challenging times with absolute faith to continue to be articulate and resolute. I have the assurance of my one and only Father and Almighty  Father God JEHOVAH JIREH who is the Alpha and Omega, my Conqueror, Protector, Saviour and Victor in supremacy over all things in existence through our Lord, Redeemer, Saviour and MESSIAH JESUS Christ, the same yesterday, today and forever. AMEN! So, I can shout HALLELUJAH! Because it is written in Psalm 107:2:
"Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy."

The perennial flooding caused by storm surge overflows cannot end until there are sustainable urban drainage systems. Government permitted the construction of many buildings on drainages or blocked off the canals and gutters. Majority of the LGAs don't have drainage systems. pic.twitter.com/0EFM9DuNqN

We have visited different LGAs and saw the causes of the perennial flooding. The state government caused 90 percent of the blocked drainages and lack of drainage systems in the LGAs.
