To some people the saying "politics is a dirty game" seems true but others might not agree.One thing however is true that in politics antics are required to govern people.Banks and coporations determine the pace of an economy and they could be viewed as a kind of government.But someone needs to lead a nation.It could be a woman these days where equity is becoming a norm.
So what makes a political genius.Is it someone that simply believes in some set of ideas or would he or she be characterized by charismatic and pragmatic traits?.The truth is that politics is a wheel that drives the planet.There is no where politics is not played.If a child wants candy he would cry till his mother gives it.A teenager who wants to attend a party completes all his chores and a husband who wants his wife's attention buys her a gift.Its all about antics.
Political parties allow their candidates to contest in an election and the people decide at the poll.However if this candidates do not have some type of appeal their ratings will not grow.Political antics can be negative or positive.A political genius knows this and chooses the positive antics.In Africa leadership is a huge problem that politics is such a dirty game.Elections are rigged and people do not truly understand their rights.Regardless of who will be elected people should never give up their right to vote.
A political genius understands the act of service and has the people at heart.He or she is selfless and willing to die for a good course.People like Martin Luther King Jr.Its not just about creating jobs,it's changing the face of politics and being remembered in history as exceptional.Setting a pace is never easy so it requires being unique and courageous on the part of the leader.
The economy,healthcare,security and education of a nation speaks for a political genius.He/She fights and acts based on the people's needs.But these days it's sad that genius in politics points to popularity or dictatorship.From Bashir Assad of Syria who fights his own people to Mugabe of Zimbabwe who was forced to step down after many years and Putin of Russia who longs for absolute power in his nation and the world.Its a series of negativity.
The people must tell and show politicians that politics ain't a dirty game but a ground for intellect,service and genius.Till we start running institutes where politicians are drilled before they take office we might not know their true capabilities.Politics should be seen as a code for service not games.If the leaders of he world can't do better then the people need to cause a revolution.This is because the political genius never dies but lingers in the minds of generations.We must choose to vote good leaders because in reality the people are the government and the leader only serves.

THE STATE OF THE WORLD A MESS
America is a nation that is blessed and rich.When people say "Am travelling to America".They sometimes mean "Am not coming back".It's because they go in search of greener pastures and America has fathered the good,bad and ugly.No doubt they have super structures that was established by the founding fathers.Someone like Martin Luther King junior who fought for the right of blacks.He died for the good black Americans enjoy today.Although the present state of America is questionable.The current president of the United States is a man known for many things.One of such is his denial of climate change and his idea that coal is better.
Recently in Florida at the Stoneman Douglas school,a young man killed 17 people(both students and teachers) with a riffle and on March 14 2018, students of that school marched as a form of protest.That same day the NRA tweeted a picture promoting the right to decide the use of guns being personal.We see several loopholes in America.From immigration to gun control and trade.What kind of a country legalise the use of weapons?.We understand that values and culture vary but then has civilization not become a menace?.If we make guns and people have to shoot them,haven't we thought of measures to keep the use of this guns safer.If the world were so global as we claim why do we make this guns to kill ourselves.
It baffles me that a country like Nigeria where i come from is seen as a giant and her leaders are crude and corrupt.Jobs are not available and the inequality gap is real.Inequality is a problem in America but the average man can boast of meeting his needs compared to people living in Africa.We can learn lessons from the West.Most African countries don't have good structures.Structures are imposed by laws and a good justice system.Africans should not just copy the logos of the West and claim them as 'ideas' but should inculcate accountability,transparency and good governance.What makes a nation lies within this four factors:Good Education,Security,Healthcare and Economy.Without consistency this four cannot be attained and to thrive one needs to be knowledgeable,safe,healthy and happy.
We see what happened in Libya where Nigerians were killed.They left their country to find a better life in Europe or Libya as the case may be forgetting what they need is in them.In Africa poverty is so alarming that the people are poor in mentality.The middle East is not omitted.It's so unstable that it makes headlines in the news.Watching the news this days has become very depressing.On the screen would be dead men and women,injured children and starving babies.Terrorism is now so normal that the leaders of the world pretend like they can't solve it.Have the people asked themselves who arm these terrorists,how they get funds and why the governments have not come together to end violence.The reason is violence sells.Guns need to be sold and so they make more weapons.If they don't make them they can't sell them anyway.
It's not like this people dying are aliens so why kill them with guns during this avoidable wars.The solution lies in us.The West is troubled by the adverse effect of technology and sophistication.Africa suffers from mediocrity.Although blessed with great resources most African countries can't boast of a successful industrial revolution.The lesson to be learned is that man is man's biggest problem.We think aliens will stop us from killing each other but we forget they are stronger and smarter.They will only exploit us because even the strongest of humans do this to the weak ones.We must get wiser.If this planet will remain in a good state,it needs to be preserved and that preservation includes nature and humans.Only humans can subdue the earth.So we must learn to love and rebuild broken bridges.

RACISM
Racism is a disease that has eaten deep into the American society.I call it a disease becos it's a problem that stems from the mind before being reflected into the physical.Someone needs to think in his mind that one is black hence can be 'dirty or crude' before they can say they hate such people.
Recently during a white supremacists rally in Charlottesville Virginia,a woman was killed when a car plowed into the crowd protesting against white nationalists.Several people were injured.I looked at the horrific scene and it was a sad thing almost like one from a war torn country.The question arise thus why people would protest the existence of others.
Growing up when I first heard the term "people of color" i used to think it was white people becos I saw black as black.No big deal.The thought that one is better than the other comes from the idea that one is superior and the other inferior.One can say that in black neighbourhoods of America crime is on the rise but white people get mugshots too and do things blacks can call 'derogatory'.
White supremacists fight becos they desperately want to cling to their European roots and there is no big deal with this but connecting the nation through love with that culture is a better approach.First we need to address race issue as one where no one has a race and everyone is seen as one.Hate can be unlearned since love is learned,though that is tough.
The mind is powerful and people need to align their minds towards a positive direction plus show more love.I look into the Rap game in America and marvel at what black people do to it.They made it cool.America needs to stand in unity.Fighting the president is not the solution.Lets start from Republicans and Democrats agreeing more becos remember the goal is America not just a party.When the leaders agree and stage good karma nobody would be bold enough to call themselves white supremacist since not all courage brings good karma.

THE MEDIA IS STILL A GOOD PLACE
Recently social media has created a fast approach to communication.Writing of letters has become old fashioned so smart phones are the new gig for texting or sending mails.This days on social media information fly around like birds.All you need to do is set up an account then followers find you with ease.The media controls the modern world and innovation makes it captivating daily.Money allows you buy the best of tech and the more expensive the better the quality.Television has gotten sophisticated from slim to ultra with the ability to make it seem you are in a cinema.The radio continues to thrive for grassroot exploit since tv is still a big deal.
Advertising cuts across all proffession and is a tool in all types of media.This changes expose humans to different acts and sure there are varying reactions.In the twinkle of an eye information can spread round the world which technology has made a global unit.We dont see the people behind the phones,tablets and computers but we sense what they look like through pictures videos and voicing.Anybody can say anything and it is believed.There is the tendency to like retweet or follow a hashtag once it trends,sentimental or makes sense.
It is true some acts on the media breeds conflicting reactions but most times people tend to pay attention to celebrities.Social media makes people crazy so much that they cant go a day without having a taste of what is happening far and around them.But there is what i call adverse effect of media.We see a rise in fake news and hate speech disguised in ugly banters.Its a reaction we get from exposing ourselves to people we know and dont.
During the last election in America Hillary Clinton was the focus of fake news and hate speech.The private server she set up and Clinton Foundation accusations exposed her to this.Fake accounts can be set up by anyone and celebrities are sometimes the target.Anyone can be bullied online but there is something comforting in the idea of hating someone popular.Fake information can affect how we see life and it falsifies global accuracy.If you read a fake story about someone you believe in twice,you tend to lose interest in them.
But the media is still a good place to communicate with the audience.We just need to make it safer and comfortable.Upcoming artists,entrepeneurs and politicians etc can use the media to carry people along.Tech companies like Google and Facebook etc must shut down fake accounts and that of those spreading hate.Its shocking that a medium such as telegram exists even though it can breed terrorism.The media must regain its lost shine and be brought back to reign as a place to be trusted.The truth remains that a world without good media poses great risks.Most people get information from social media and if there is no credibility we are in danger.
Also we must let our brains think before our fingers.There is more to just typing away.Thinking before accepting and sending information will save you embarrassment regret and sometimes death in a world where terrorism and abduction has become a norm.Also keeping your location undisclosed is advisable.Making progress through the media is one of the best inventions and would never get old we just need to be wise on how we act and react.

DOMESTIC ABUSE
The victims of abuse are people that are kind of vulnerable.This could be an effect of mental state,age or physical disposition.Girls and women go through abuse of some sort growing up and it reflects in their perception.Some of this are assault and rape.Its true thinking women are weaker than men is out dated in a world where equity is fought for at home and work.
We see extremism buying into abuse.Girls are kidnapped and raped by terrorists and forced to have the baby.It makes me sick in 2016 that there are laws that allow rapists legal paternity to their victims child.Women are mostly the target of domestic violence although men can be abused too.
The force behind domestic abuse is hatred.It comes from a filty perception of life in that the abusive one is faulty and a mirror of what they see as wrong.Usually the subject is a mind that is different from the average.A sincere,meek and sometimes enlightened heart.They usually have what cannot be seen,touched or bought.The stories could be an unending series of badlucks.The goal of abuse is to cut short the progress of the victim.But know that hate is the weapon of the weak and done by people with short sight.Yes beautiful things are conceived by people that are unique and hate is a bandwagon approach.
There is really no place hate cannot be found and success might be difficult for people going through that.It takes counselling,discipline,faith and the wiill to overcome the trauma of abuse.The victim must understand that life is beautiful and we only need to win at daily challenges.We must reach out to girls and women and men being abused through special programs that can detect abuse and protect them.Not just the NGOs but the Police Departments,Government and special detectives.Its not an easy task but our future lies in the bearers of nations.Only crude soceities disrespect girls and women and anyone can be great if guided.Lets protect our girls and women and give them access to human and woman rights.

IS ABORTION A SIN
Religion tells us that abortion is a negative act that has a penalty from God.Overtime life has become sophisticated and easy.Technology and advance thinking makes humans civilized so religion does not have a hard grip.The new movement of control is the media which ensures everyone gets informed educated and entertained.An ad on tv can go round the world within minutes.Big money determines how appealing an advert is and people get hooked for sure.A condom ad this days can be a sexy looking girl dancing to beyonce while her boyfriend is waiting for her on the bed.It lures the audience to think having sex is good as long as you wear a condom.
Sex is an essential aspect of life that ensures couples enjoy companionship and reproduce.But in the world today sex is very casual.There is little thought put into why sex should be done and its consequence.Sexual urge occurs and people would have sex so the idea of contraceptives is natural.The truth is that once people have the thought that sex is casual they get exposed to risks.Not that sex is bad but we all know unprotected sex leads to pregnancy.When pregnancy occurs at a young age or wrong time people opt out for abortion.
Some countries think its wrong while others think it is normal.The fact remains however that abortion and contraceptives have risks like infection womb damage cancer depression etc.Although statistics would tell you this risks are 1 in a 1000,alot of women know the negative effects that abortion and contraceptives cause now or later in life.Also is STIs which are not detectable on the outside and condoms dont assure 100% protection.
Telling people to abstain from sex is a 50% chance.The effective thing to do is to teach good sex orientation.A bill should be passed that at an early age kids should be taught the consequence of sex, prevention and choice of abstinence.At an older age they should be taught how to be faithful in a relationship.Adverse effect of contraceptives and abortion should be taught too.The movement to instill good sex orientation should be general and available everywhere.
Condoms are valid because some people can choose to be careful.Life is beautiful and part of living is sex but how people see it matters.Its great to have sex when your mind is mature enough to know it is an act that requires two people who share similar values and prepared for its consequence.

SONG WRITING
The art of songwriting has to do with putting together words that inform stuns rhyme and make sense.Putting words together looks easy till you pick up a pen to write.The words dont just come but are a reflection of the writer's mind.Words are everything that you think about and channelling the thoughts could be a challenge.You need to know how to arrange the lyrics.
A clear head can give heardstarts hence its essential to go around with a writing tool.Think of a title then begin to form words that relate to it."its the lies you told that changed everything" fits with the title "broken".Suspense and intrigue makes a song stunning.Not giving it away keeps the audience wanting to know more.However the intro must be meaningful.The song should have a body which is the full content of it.It should be talked about all through the song and can be 2 or 3 verses.Also there is the chorus which must be catchy, easy to sing and compact.
Let your music speak they say.Dont force anything cos sometimes it comes in tit bits.A hit can be written in minutes and sometimes could take days.You need to know your strength.This means what you flow with in writing.Usually i write about love and sometimes the 'mood' and inspiration makes me write on other things.
Lastly is writer's block.Am that type of writer that can try new things.I can write on topics that is not in my comfort zone.But sometimes nothing comes and even when i do research i tend to write what i see online.This can be very frustrating.So what i do is let go by watching tv and learning new things.Writer's block is not forever.It will come and go unless there is a problem.Play around with words in your mind because your thoughts define what you write and how pleasing it will be.
