Who owns the kids

I am not an outing guy or someone who goes out at night often. I can actually count how many times I have been out at night say for parties and drinkups. The few times I have been out has not been fun-filled with lots of excitement. It is at night that you hear a lot of music, see fancy cars and lots of women. A worrying trend these days is the way and manner in which  underage boys and girls or teenagers flood our drinking bars and pubs.  A visit to a popular pub last night showed a lot of these teenagers drinking alcohol and ranting afterwards. I was shocked to see teenage girls drinking and smoking freely as if there was no tomorrow. I even saw some guys engaging in flirtatious and suspicious acts with some girls because they seem tipsy. Questions begun to flush through my mind. Who owns these kids and why would a parent allow his or her kid to be out in the streets at night especially after 10p.m. Why will bar attendants and pub owners entertain kids and teenagers at that ungod

Colorado Craze

I have been reading a story on how about 37 people including five college kids have died of marijuana overdosew in Colorado On Janury 1 the state of Colorado passed a law legalising marijuana sale for recreational use through statewide ballot measures. Under the new policy it is legal for adult use, regulated like alcohol and heavily taxed. First day, January 1 saw massive queuing at various shops  and malls where marijuana is sold.

It's been reported that 37 people are dead and many more are lying in various hospitals and medical facilities clinging onto life in emergency rooms. Sad among them are some teenagers and school kids. Chief surgeon of St. Luke Medical Center in Denver has predicted that by next week the d

2014, another year

Another year is here again and we thank God for giving This year looks promising and innocent even though I think it is impregnated with all kinds of  stories, happenings and wahala, as usual. In light of all these, I have always had hope of a better year, 2014. People always ask why I have hope that this year will be better; My answer is always this, "I don't know but I have a feeling it will be." Last year was not really good for most of us, having witnessed so many accidents, armed robberies, corruption and so many ills of society. I am however encouraged that each year comes with changes and good tidings. 2014 has been declared by the International Central Gospel Church (ICGC) as a year of Order. I pray to God that our lives will be ordered and in order. GOD bless this year 2014 and make things go well for us. Amen
