PATRICH OBAHIAGBON ATTACKED ON TWITTER AFTER GRAMMATICAL ERROR

 Hon. Patrick Obahiagbon made a grammatical error on twitter when he wrote 'matched' instead of 'matches' and some of his followers lashed out at him for it. The thing is, Mr Obahiagbon is known for his use of very big and confusing words so it was quite unexpected for a man who is used to 'scattering' our heads with big grammar to make this kind of grammatical error. But this particular fan Daudu Adebayo went too far o;

INCREDIBLE NIGERIAN SKETCH ARTISTE, KEVIN OKAFOR, BECOMES AN INTERNATIONAL SENSATION

Kelvin Okafor is a 27-year-old sketch artiste who uses only pencils and a piece of paper to create amazing portraits and he is currently making waves across the world.

Okafor, who is a graduate of Fine Art, Middlesex University,  has been producing pictures with pencils since he was a teenager who was too poor to leave his house to socialise. Instead of drinking and clubbing, Ofakor stayed at home in Tottenham, North London, seeking solace in drawing. Okafor says each work takes him up to 100hours to complete.

An exhibition of his work opened at London’s Science Museum and already some of his portraits are changing hands for £10,000 apiece. This week, a portrait he drew of King Hussein of Jordan is to be presented to the late monarch’s widow, Queen Noor. See more of his amazing works after the cut...

THE ADVISE THAT CAUSED MY QUARELL WITH ATTAH - GOV. AKPABIO

Gov. Akpabio and former Gov. Attah

I said "Sir, but the visitors that are coming, they would think this government is not performing.  He (Attah) said, is it my business to fix federal roads?  Will you get out of this place."  So I was a man who over-advised. - Gov. Godwill Akpabio. 

This is Akpabio's interview with VANGUARD (read Attah's response  HERE) Read the full interview below (a must-read);

Comparison with predecessor
You could just have performed if you have the vision and sincerity.  If you have the passion and commitment, you could also have impacted on the lives of your people if you do not have ulterior motive and this has been the problem.  So I am building the state from the scratch as if Akwa Ibom was born today.  It wasn’t born today.

Why he is angry
I started with a lot of anger.  I served as commissioner for five years and I know that where I met the state is not where it ought to have been. I used my money to repair this Calabar road when I was commissioner when Obansajo was to pay a visit to the state.  I went and brought a heap of sand to try to fill potholes along the road.  So I went to the incumbent governor at that time and I said Sir, let’s do something about the road.  He said, get out, is it my father’s road?  Let him (Obasanjo) come and see how he has been neglecting Akwa Ibom.
