MEGA STREET PRAISE 2016 

BEYOND WHAT IT SEEMS

INTRODUCTION

Yesterday, which happened to be the eve of Christmas, I had the opportunity to go round town to ‘fulfill all righteousness’. As I passed through the major markets, I almost was convinced that most people were chased out of their house since the crowd I saw was enormous. The ATM stand of all ‘major’ banks were clad with a long queue of people. Everybody was on the move as they PREPARED for CHRISTMAS.

EXCERPT OF MEGA STREET PRAISE 2015

INTRODUCTION:

Mega Street Praise is presently an annual musical programme of Pavilion of Grace International Ministry where Artistes are invited to lead God's children into an unusual realm of heartfelt worship to God. It started in 2014 and it was a success and even the 2015 edition was a greater success and an explosive blast. Billboards and stickers of the musical programme—Mega Street Praise 2015 featuring Pastor Ovie, Pastor Onos, Kathy Jakes, Judewind, Kelvin Sapp, Teekee, Young Chief, Apostle Paul— has gone out throughout the city of Warri and beyond.

THE SECOND CHANCE NOVEL—TSCN (1)

Tragedy struck on me which triggered my dad to quickly run into his room to get his car key—but he couldn’t find it even though it was on top of the table in his well furnished room, after a fruitless search, he later saw it— as my mum and siblings shouted my name like basic three students would pronounce a new word after their English teacher. My dad which was just wearing a short and a singlet— since he was just reading THE NATION newspaper, in front of the TV which was turned to CHANNELS STATION, after a hectic day at work— paced out of the house running towards the garage as he pressed the unlock button of his car key which opened his VENZA TOYOTA WAGON—with plate number ENUGU, AGG11-PTN.

CORRUPTION SERIES 2: CORRUPTION IN THE EDUCATIONAL SECTOR

Going through my daily routine of reading through various newspapers, I stumbled into a powerful HEADLINE. Just the headline of the article reminded me of an article of mine I didn’t paste last month and just before I share what I just read. Let’s take a short stroll into an event that happened last month.

CELEBRATING MINISTER LAWRENCE (1)

       I have always being a lover of MUSIC because it has being the major source of my INSPIRATION. I have passionately followed James Moss, Jessica Reedy, Tye Tribbett, Mali Music, Frank Edward, Kirk Franklin,Rev Victor Atenega, Tim Godfrey,  Deitrick Haddon, Lawrence Flowers and a host of others but few months back, precisely in the month of January, I encountered a young singer from Delta state that forced his way into my ‘MUSICAL HALL OF FAME’ through his skillfulness. I hardly envy people’s talent but I was tempted to envy his—and to be candid with you, I fell into the temptation… Lol. How did all this start? Travel with me to the ‘Genesis’ of our meeting.

CELEBRATING PASTOR B

TUNDE BAKARE is a Nigerian Prophetic Pastor. He is a Man known both nationally and internationally.

POJOMATICS NEW MONTH MESSSAGE: THINK BIG AND PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT

Wow! Can you imagine? We are in a new month. I remember, as if it were yesterday, when I said Happy New Year to my Friends, Family and Fans and just like a twinkle of an eye, the year has paced faster than Usain Bolt. God has being faithful, even though we are not where we have envisioned to be, we are not where we used to be. He has kept us through January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October and now we are in the month of November. I want you to remember that some people started this year with you but they are not alive to see this day. THERE ARE ENOUGH REASONS FOR YOU TO GIVE THANKS TO GOD. I advice you take out time today, and in the remaining days of the year,  to give God quality worship for thus far He has brought you.

THE MARKET OF LIFE (2): INCREASE YOUR S.O.U.R

“Increase your S.O.U.R

So that you can SOAR

If you neglect taking action now

Things will go SOUR”    — POJOMATICS WEBS

 Earlier last week, I was at work when I got an Urgent call from my Mum to help her go to the market, precisely Igbudu market, to get her some items. It was already 04:45pm and if you live in Warri, you should know what that means and if you don’t know what that means, I will help you:  Igbudu market is one of the most popular markets in the oil city where you can find almost any item that comes to mind and it closes officially at around 05:30pm.

TURNING ON THE LIGHT NINE YEARS LATER: CELEBRATING GOD’S GENERAL

            THE DARKEST DAY OF MY LIFE

 

OCTOBER 22^nd has always been the darkest day of my life. It carried an event I never thought of having, it stole one of the strongest currencies I ever had in life, a currency I needed planned to lose so soon in my life. It punctured the balloon of joy which was in an excited state and dragged it to a ground state.

REMAINING RELEVANT IN CHANGING TIMES SERIES—RERICTS1

“The world doesn’t remember your past excellence, they are simply interested in your current relevance”—POJOMATICS

I can only imagine how my Beloved Father, Mr. Jeremiah E. Okotie, felt on the 02^nd of June 2004 when he entered a shop in Lagos to buy a pair of NOKIA 1100. I guess he was so excited as the product he asked for was brought to him. I could feel the joy he felt after paying #23,800 for two ‘powerful’ phones. 

Few days later, my Dad stormed Warri and journeyed to his residential address at 13 Okandeji Street, Somewhere in Warri-South Local Government Area. My Mum, DMSEJO, and I were so excited to see my Dad after months of not seeing him due to his job in Lagos. Just before the smiles that came due to his arrival faded off our faces, Dad gave us a shocking surprise, he brought out two small cartoons that I have never seen before and as I tried to look at the cartoon, I saw the words, NOKIA 1100, and a hand of a man reaching to hold that of a little Child.  Dad held one of the Cartoons and passed the other to his wife and that was the fuel that ignited Mum’s happiness. She was so excited like a blind man who received his sight. Why on earth will she be excited? I guess it was worth being excited, to be the first woman to owe such an expensive phone in the area.

Yesterday, as I displayed the photo of Nokia 1100 on my various social media platforms, most of my friends remembered ‘the good old days’ of Space Impact. Anyways, twelve years down the line, Nokia 1100 doesn’t interests anybody. I guess if you are offered the phone now, you would be tempted to slap the person. Why? Because the phone has lost its relevance.

Dear reader, take a critical look at your humble self. Are you a business man or a student? Are you currently at the top of your field or you are ‘just there’. What does the future hold for you? Five years from now, are you going to be relevant in your field or you would be dumped in a bin where ‘good old days memory are kept’? Would you be replace by a more productive and creative individual or will you be replaced by a Robot?

REMAINING RELEVANT IN CHANGING TIMES IS A DELIBERATE ACT OF A MAN TO DEVELOP HIMSELF TO BE ABLE TO MEET WITH THE NEEDS OF THE EVER CHANGING WORLD. The reason NOKIA 1100 is no longer relevant is simple: It failed to meet up the demands of the present world. That simply means if you fail to meet up with the demands of the ever changing world, you will be left behind in history.

Therefore, as Youths, we must LEARN THE ACTS OF REMAINING RELEVANT IN THE MIDST OF THE CHANGES THE WORLD UNDERGOES.

I wish you a fruitful weekend and do well to drop your comments on this article.

UNLIMITED POJOMATICS

 A PROUD WARRI BOY

 

THE MARKET OF LIFE(1)

INTRODUCTION

Earlier this week, precisely on Monday, My Mother, DMSEJO, sent me, POJOMATICS, on an errand to the MARKET. Just before I left, SHE GAVE me a LIST OF ITEMS TO PURCHASE and RESOURCES with which to purchase the items.

CORRUPTION SERIES 1: CORRUPTION IS A NIGERIAN?

        For a while, an article has being boiling in me but I have refused to let it see the light of day because of it's funny title, CORRUPTION IS A NIGERIAN. How funny and embarrassing to a country that has the potential to be the greatest country in the world. Like doubting Thomas, I refused to believe this above title but an incidence happened recently that forced my thread into the tiny hole of this 'neddled-fact'.

POJOMATICS PENCILS: POJOMATICS NEW MONTH MESSAGE

INTRODUCTION

If you are reading this article, it means you are alive to see Nigeria celebrate her 56^th anniversary. If you are still breathing presently, it shows that there is hope for you to achieve all you have planned for this year. Despite the country’s current journey towards recession, there are a thousand and one reasons for you to be grateful to God who has made it possible to be alive and who has buried the solution Nigeria needs in you.

POJOMATICS PENCILS: BUILDING A BETTER NATION WITH THE SPOTLIGHT ON YOU.

CURRENT POSITION IN CONNECTION WITH PAST DECISIONS

       As Nigeria celebrates this year’s anniversary, there exist mixed feelings among her citizens: Some are excited about this historic event, at least we all are alive despite the problems and we are hoping for a better nation some day. Another school of thought is furiously angry with the country. “What’s really there to be happy about” they ask. The prices of things have skyrocketed, the naira is experiencing a free fall almost every day, Boko Haram is fast becoming a world recognized terrorist group, Niger Delta Avengers are destroying some of the nation’s assets, Federal Government is on the cross road on whether to sell some national assets or find an alternative.

CELEBRATING A SOLUTION: SIR KATHY SAM-WEALTH

“A man is labeled a success, not by his possession but by his deposition in the life of others” –Pojomatics

       It is said that September is the best month of the year and today proves it true because one of the greatest force of change in Nigeria was born on this day few decades ago.

ENOUGH OF THE BLAME GAME: LET’S FIND A SOLUTION

       Today I really want to discuss on something very important. Something I guess is unlike me. I am really not a fan of Politicians but this man made series of statement that drilled me to the point that I wished I had a private jet that will take me to Abuja, just to give him a handshake, and bring me back. You want to know what he said? Who is he that said?  Read on,you will see it.

PREPARATION TOWARDS OCTOBER 1th: BRINGING OUT GOOD OUT OF OUR NAZARETH

Good morning my beloved Readers. I am not tired of expressing my heartfelt gratitude to all of you who keep reading my articles. I thank those who keep their comments coming in and those who just read and comment in their mind. I must commend Mr. Seth Akinbulumo, the CEO of Soaak 103 Consult,who keeps pushing me into the ocean of inspiration where I cannot but drink up large amount of inspiration. I celebrate God’s grace in your life Sir.

GETTING PREPARED TO BE A SOLUTION

         It’s another beautiful day, precisely the second day, in the month of September which I see as THE MONTH OF SOLUTION DELIVERY.

DUST YOURSELF AND MOVE ON

The month of August has certainly being a great month and if you will agree with me, it happened to be the greatest month of this year? How many people agree with me? For me, it has being an awesome month especially in my writing career. It was the month I received a lot of comments that keeps me going as I strive to change the thinking pattern of Nigerian Youths to enhance national transformation.

CELEBRATING THE DREAM SPEECH

The famous I HAVE A DREAM SPEECH was delivered on the 28^th of August 1963 at the Lincoln Memorial, Washington D.C and that was exactly fifty-three (53) years ago. It arose simply because there existed a problem called racism which our father, Martin Luther King Jr(MLKJ), was ready to proffer solution to even at the cost of his life.

MINIMIE CHINCHIN: A ”MASTERCRAFT” OF EXCELLENCE

  My Mum was so happy when I told her I had decided to come spent a week with her. On Monday 20th June 2016, I journeyed to the oil city of Warri and went straight to her shop at 10 Mowoe Road.

INVESTIGATIONS ON MICHEAL JACKSON

       When May 11^th arrived, Robert Nesta “Bob” Marley came to mind. When April 4^th came, Martin Luther King came to mind. Following same order, 25^th June arrives and the only person that seems to come to mind is the KING OF POP.

INTRODUCTION TO POJOMATICS

        Ladies and Gentlemen, it is with great pleasure I write this first article across to you. This has being my passion to get a platform to reach out to millions of People especially Youths and now it is gradually becoming a reality. This blog is very unique, that uniqueness will be unveiled subsequently.
