Hello to everyone Sorry for my long absence on this blog. To those of you writing to ask why I no longer post again, that's because I fell into depression after paystack seized my earnings. I narrated my ordeal at save me from depression and possible suicide. It led to a sickness that has cost me a lot of money that I don't have.

Since the debt crisis of the 1980’s, the IMF has assumed the role of bailing out countries during financial crises (caused in large part by currency speculation in the global casino economy) with emergency loan packages tied to certain conditions, often referred to as structural adjustment policies (SAPs).
