One dream ends



I asked AI to make a flag. (Second attempt) 

Twenty years ago, I was 
living in California, 
missing Nigeria, and 
so I created this blog, 
UpNaira, my second blog ever, 

to get and share ideas and support 
on money, career, business, and economic development, 
basically a tend-and-befriend project around 
making things materially better 
for our own selves and our dear homeland.
  
Well, the Naira has refused to go up, 
but the Naira is not the same as Naija :-) 

I will continue to post at my first blog ever, LifeLib,  
and may drop a post here and there,  
but I will stop posting here at UpNaira 

which sort of doesn't matter because the newsfeed/blogroll continues: 
under 
"Money Talk (from business sites and blogs)" 
click 
"Show All" for all the best parts! 

I asked AI to make a flag. (1st try)

not impossible. actually.

 Nadeem’s throw of 92.97m broke the Olympic record and was Pakistan’s first gold since the 1984 Los Angeles Games, when it won the men’s hockey. The last individual medal – a bronze – was won in Seoul in 1988 in boxing. “It’s an amazing feeling … to win Olympic gold. I’m thankful to Allah for giving me the fruit of my labour and to all the people back home who prayed for me. I’ll try to do even better next time around,” he told reporters in Paris.
