Can’t really describe the warm memories, The pride and Gratitude that came upon me that day. Kissing you for the first time, my heart got melt….I remember changing your diaper with joy, when you started crawling, your first set of teeth, the first time I saw you walking, it looked as if the nature was dancing.
The First time you called me TJ my heart went GaGa! It was a pleasure to see you in school uniform walking into your class. You were my comedian that kept me laughing with so much Joy regardless of how bad business was at the time. You brought abundant blessings into my life. I love admiring you when you are sleeping. I was always saying my daughter is the cutest thing in the world, So beautiful.
Your mum had to correct me that I couldn’t use Sexy for a baby. Lol so I adapted Pretty. Now that my baby is growing and influences are strong, I hope you remember the right from the wrong. Always say your prayers, my soul will always protect you from evil. Keep your manners, morals and sense of respect but must stand tall and proud, within you feel no fear, for all your dreams and goals sit before you very near, with God’s love in your heart and the world by its tail, You will always be a winner.
Listen and obey your Mum. I Thank your soul to choose me as your Father. I promise I will help you reach your destination. I want you to know Life is not fair and no one knows what or where life will take one tomorrow but I want you to know I and Your Mum LOVE You Unconditionally. I thank God for giving the Best Mother for you to Us….. ‘Happy Birthday My BeBe’ Have a Blessed B.Day!!!

NAIJA I HAIL OOOO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO BNEGIN USE OF CEMENT TO CONSTRUCT ROADS
The Minister of Works, Mike Onolememen, on Thursday in Abuja said the Federal Government was set to begin experimenting with the construction of roads through the rigid pavement method.
Onolememen said this when he received Mr Guillaume Roux, the Country Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Group Executive Vice President of Lafarge Group.
He said rigid pavement, which is another name for cement concrete surface, was the use of cement, rather than asphalt, and was expected to make roads last longer in Nigeria.
The minister said two roads would be the first beneficiaries after the approval of this year’s budget.
“We have identified major road works where we want to experiment rigid pavement design.
“We have commissioned consultants. They said that one of those roads is the Kachia-Baro road to connect the FCT to Baro Port in Niger.
“The second one is the Ikorodu-Sagamu road in Lagos state. We have completed the design of the rigid pavement.
“Once the 2014 budget is approved, they will come on stream,’ he said.
Onolememen said government was taking measures to regulate the movement of heavy duty trucks to eliminate the high incidence of potholes, caused mostly by such vehicles.
The minister said that the gesture was in line with the quest for best practices in the country.
He urged cement companies to declare what investments they were prepared to bring into the road construction business as it related to the use of their products.
“They are projects where you have to showcase your cement. We are looking forward to collaborating with your organisation (Lafarge) in bringing that experimentation to fruition.
“We believe there are certain terrains in our country that are unfriendly to asphaltic concrete, so we have to design this solution for those terrains,’’ Onolememen said.
He said some cement companies had been identified as one of the sources of the excessive overloading of the roads.
The minister said cement companies were being engaged so as to agree on what tonnage should leave their factory to address the menace of excessive damage on the roads.
He explained that the government would carry out laboratory tests on the products to ensure that they were good for construction of rigid pavement carriageway in Nigeria.
Earlier, Roux had said the Lafarge company had high quality cement for road works and solutions.
He added that they had nine plants at the end of 2013 and intended to increase them to 17 at the end of 2014.
“Introducing rigid pavements will help Nigerian roads to last longer,’’ Roux said.
