My 40th Birth Day

Today I turned 40 years and there are several issues that i need to get off my chest:

1. It is quite sad that the citizenry ( and thus the leadership) of my country, Nigeria, is constituted of persons who for the most part are in capable of properly running the affairs of a country club, talk less of a country. For the past 3 years I have been working out of the U.S and it is my humble contention that i would prefer to live in nigeria but for the fact that some very very baisc issues need to be resolved - a good example being the power issue

2. I waked up today expecting to feel different - I have always heard that life begins at foirrt and i coukd not wait to clock forty to see how it feels - i feel exactly the same as I felt yesreday when i was thirty nine

3. The cost of living in the US is so high that I am beginning to think that Nigeria is better - even when i provide my own electric supply, I seem to pay less than i pay to the utility companies in the U\S. Also I am compelled to pay my domestiv help 50X what I pay them in Nigeria due to the min. wage values here

Please bear with me on the spellings in this post
