Animal Farm is an original work of George Orwell (1945). In his essay, ‘Why I Write’ (1946) Orwell explained that the main reason he wrote Animal Farm was to "to fuse political purpose and artistic purpose into one whole".  Thus, I beg to borrow Orwell’s reasoning as I write about the political shenanigans in Abia state, Nigeria.

In 1964, the Bankers’ magazine published an adage, which it rephrased as, "Let me tell you about the law of holes: If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging."  This came as advice to financial services professionals, especially to traders on the floor of stock exchanges around the world.

THE 11TH LAW OF POWER:  LEARN TO KEEP PEOPLE DEPENDENT ON YOU Make people depend on you for their happiness and prosperity and you have nothing to fear. Never teach them enough so that they can do without you. “Thus the wise prince will think of ways to keep his citizens of every sort and under every circumstances dependent on the state and on him; and then they will always be trustworthy”…Machiavelli

Yesterday, I somehow found myself in the midst of some religious people. A Muslim and a Pastor were arguing over who was the Prophet that Deuteronomy 18:18 referred to. By the way, Deuteronomy 18:18 states; “I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.” This statement was from God to Moses; according to the Bible.
