Just listened to Peter Thiel complain about how hard it is to have mega companies in Europe and how everyone wants to sell and go on vacation. I am glad Europe exists as a counterpoint to the rat race that is the US. I absolutely love how life can be slow here, how money isn’t everything. How in much of Europe no one cares if you are a venture capitalist with a gazillion dollars to spend. How people don’t need to work themselves to death to prove a point. How on a Wednesday afternoon you can find people just enjoying the sun and not fretting about deliverables. How trains work. How guns are not everywhere. How road rage doesn’t not immediately lead to someone shooting you in the chest. How cities are walkable. How people are not obsessed with marriage and who pays on dates. How little purity culture there is. How people are not terrified of a naked body in public. Because in the end after you make all that money, after you build that mega company, what is it all for? What is all your success worth if in this brief life you cannot enjoy the things that make life worth living, the little things, the lakes and rivers and oceans, the mountains, the colors of nature, the taste of food, the smiles of humans who are not all judging each other based on which patch of land they own, which piece of equipment they have, and what imaginary figures they have in banks? What is human progress for if not for the enjoyment of this one brief life? And yes Europe has its problems. A lot of them. But it would be a disaster if Europe became like the US.

A Few Minutes Ago, My Father Passed Away in His Home in Enugu State.
I am comforted by the memories like when I was just 5 years old, and he was already teaching me how to read the Bible and preach from house to house as a Jehovah’s Witness.
At a young age, my dad dreamed of becoming a lawyer, but his family couldn’t afford university education. Despite that, he never gave up on learning. He loved books deeply and read voraciously. During his time at Izzi Boys Secondary School, he was always first in his class.
I grew up watching him read all day and all night. My dad owned one of the biggest personal libraries I’ve ever seen. He taught me to read when I was just five.
At just 19 years old, he left our village and moved to Ikom, Cross River State, to serve under his elder brother in business. It was there he met my late mother and got married.
In 1992, my dad came in contact with the Jehovah’s Witnesses, and from that moment, his life was never the same. He devoted the rest of his life to that faith and remained a staunch member until his final breath.
Nine years ago, he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and had been battling it ever since. Last year, I flew him, his wife, and my younger brother to Turkey for a deep brain surgery. After the expensive procedure, he spent four more months there recovering. I even secured permanent residency for him in Turkey.
He felt better than he had in nine years, but despite that, he asked to return to Enugu he missed home and wanted to continue his ministry as a Jehovah’s Witness.
When he returned, he was doing well and could move around fairly normally again until four days ago. My younger brother rushed to my house, which is in the same compound, to tell me the battery implant in our dad’s chest had gone off. The tremors were back.
I immediately contacted the hospital in Turkey, they had given a 10 year warranty on the battery. After some back and forth, they told me he needed to return to Turkey for a replacement. But my dad refused. He looked at me and said, “You have tried. I am grateful. But I’ll prefer to wait for death.”
In my usual way, I insisted he must go back. I told him I’d put him on a flight this week. The last day I saw him before traveling to Abuja for the Igbo Fest, I told him again that he would be flying back soon he smiled and still said no.
Then today, my younger brother, Jehovah-Buikem, called me: “It has happened o. Mpa is gone!”
I felt deep sadness… but in truth, my father had been preparing us for this moment since I was 10 years old. He always talked about death with a smile. He had full conviction, as a Jehovah’s Witness, that Jehovah God would resurrect him when His kingdom comes.
If I were in Enugu today, I would have buried him immediately, just as he instructed. But I will fly back tomorrow and carry out his wishes exactly.
My dad wasn’t perfect I carry many scars from the wrongs he did to me but one thing I will never forget is this: he never told lies, and he never coveted what others had.
We settled our lifelong differences 9 years ago when I gave birth to my first son, IKEMBA.
Adieu, Chibueze Ngene.
In this 1998 picture, my father had taken me from our village, Obeagu Awkunanaw, to Topland in Enugu State, where I was to begin learning carpentry under his younger brother, Emeka, at the Enugu Timber Shade.

@Ibrahim_mikiya Did you also consider what would happen if the Crocs wakes up from its sleep and opens its jaws?....Maybe you should have just made your post with a different inscription.

I visited the Ọgbọ ogwu and adjoining market today in Onitsha. As the biggest open drug market in Africa, it is not surprising that Federal Agencies and regulatory bodies would, from time to time, visit the market to enforce standards and check the sale of fake, counterfeit, and controlled drugs in the market.
With drugs and related matters captured strictly on the exclusive list, my visit today was interventionist. First, I sought to ascertain why other markets close to the drug market in Onitsha were closed. Away from the media sensation created by a few political actors, the leadership of the Plumbing materials market, which was shut down alongside the drug market, confirmed to me that the discoveries made by the Regulators in some shops in the plumbing material market were both shocking and disturbing.
Right inside these shops were found cartons of counterfeit and controlled drugs, many of which had been banned globally. How these drugs, which have been banned globally and locally, are still being manufactured in India, pass through our various ports (sea and air), and find their way to our local drug markets remains a question only the relevant authorities can answer.
While we must rid our country of fake and counterfeit drugs, it is important for the Federal Government to tighten up the noose on the supply end of the value chain. I have directed that the search, which had commenced a few days ago, be expedited so that in less than 10 days from today, the traders at the Plumbing materials market can be allowed to reopen and commence their legitimate commercial activities.
As a government, we are already building a coordinated wholesale drug centre in Oba, Idemili South LGA, that will accommodate the new and standardized Ogbo ogwu market. This is our own contribution to ending the current chaotic market environment where fake and counterfeit drugs thrive.
ONITSHA remains the largest trading hub in Africa, we will further expand this status to a more befitting height.
May Anambra Continue to win!
