1. You’ve seen them in your dreams.
Our dreams connect us in ways most people don’t realize. This is why many people report having premonitions that come true in their dreams, and this is why if you dream about someone you are missing, it’s likely they miss you too. The reason being is that they are visiting you in the astral realm, which is spiritually significant.
2. You have random mood swings.
Out of nowhere, your mood seems to shift, with no noticeable trigger. Around the time your mood shifts, you were thinking about them, or for whatever reason, they randomly pop into your mind.
3. You hear their name a lot.
On television, with others, or even on the radio you may hear their first or even last name. And it may seem completely coincidental, however, in the realm of possibility there is no such a thing as a coincidence.
4. You keep finding white feathers.

If someone is missing you, you might find other signs from the universe that are a little unusal. For example, finding a white feather is a big sign that someone is missing you or thinking about you.
What does that mean?
Often a white feather is a sign from the universe that someone is thinking about you.
If you see one, also pay attention to your surroundings when you find the white feather.
Is the place somewhere familiar? Does it have importance or trigger certain feelings or memories?
What was on your mind when you found the white feather?
You might have also been thinking about the person missing you when you found a feather.
I know that the times I’ve found a white feather, I’ve known it was a sign because it was while I was thinking about someone intently and dearly.
So keep a sharp eye out for this serendipitous sign, it might just be that someone is thinking about you and missing you.
5. You’ve seen owls lately.
And when you go outside, you notice owls, either in your line of vision, or you may hear them more often. If this happens, and you’ve never heard them before, they are trying to tell you that this person misses you. READ FULL STORY HERE>>>CLICK HERE TO CONTINUE READING>>>
6. You can’t get them off your mind.
No matter how hard you try, and how successful you may be in blips, you can’t seem to get them off your mind. It’s become so bad, that every time you finally think maybe you are moving on, they pop right back up in your mind.
7. Inexplicable goosebumps

When the goosebumps rise up on your skin and it’s nowhere near cold out, it could be a big sign that someone is missing you.
If you are on someone’s mind, you might feel certain sensations in a very specific and physical way.
Any number of things can give you goosebumps, that’s just the fact of the matter. It could be anything from a slight breeze to an epiphany, a beautiful song that rushes through your body.
Our body reacts to different environmental stimuli even when we don’t realize it.
Here’s the thing:
While there are countless things that cause goosebumps, scientists aren’t entirely sure why they happen.
The inexplicable rush of sensation through your skin is often a reaction to something just beyond our senses.
When “the hair stands up on the back of your neck,” it’s the same reaction as when you’re cold. Our body is sensing something we aren’t paying attention to.
It might just be a sign that someone is thinking about you.
This actually happens to me often; I’ve found that when I pay attention to it and try to figure out why it’s happening, I can actually have more clarity.
8. You notice random signs.
You begin noticing weird things, like inside jokes between you coming to life, or a television show or movie the two of you watched that never comes on suddenly being on television a lot. For me, I heard a song play on the radio that never came on the radio that was special to me and someone I missed. At that moment, I knew they missed me too!
9. You have random sneezing fits.

While sneezing because of pollen or allergies is one thing, random sneezing fits are another. They are a sign that someone is thinking about you and misses you.
10. Your ear burns.
Have you ever heard the adage about if your ears burn, someone is thinking about you? If you notice your ears get red-hot for apparently no other reason, then it’s likely this special person misses you.
11. You feel phantom touches.
You feel random phantom touches out of nowhere. A phantom touch is a sensation of being touched when no one is around you. When this happens, this person is likely trying to reach out to you in their mind.
12. You randomly hear their voice.
Out of nowhere, when you are alone, you hear them calling out and talking. When you answer back, you get no response, because they aren’t physically there, but still, it makes you feel unsettled.

Nigeria has seen the rise and fall of many military regimes since she became a sovereign state in 1960 and this, at every turn, has altered the direction of the country.
A second coup since independence which happened on July 29, 1966, would see to the brutal death of Nigeria’s Supreme Commander, General J.T.C Aguiyi-Ironsi (the nation’s 1st military head of state) and his friend, Lieutenant Colonel Francis Adekunle Fajuyi, who was the sitting and 1st Military Governor of the Western Region…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>
Aguiyi-Ironsi was a guest at the Government House, Ibadan, as he came to hold a meeting with traditional rulers in the Western region. Ironsi arrived Ibadan the previous day and unknowingly, he met his death during the counter-coup which is generally believed to be a retaliation to the January 15th 1966 coup in which prominent Northerners in power were killed.
The Northerners were believed to hold a grudge since the first coup as they lost leaders including Alhaji Abubakar Tafawa Balewa (Nigerian Prime Minister) and Sir Ahmadu Bello (Sardauna of Sokoto and Premier of the Northern Region). They tagged it an ‘Igbo Coup’ as no Eastern casualty was recorded in both the military and public service as even the West lost Chief Samuel Ladoke Akintola in the coup.

This counter-coup of July 29, 1966, led by General Theophilus Yakubu Danjuma was tagged the bloodiest coup by many in the history of Nigeria. Ironsi and Fajuyi’s death which still remains a controversial debate among historians because how they were killed isn’t clear but both bodies were found in a bush in outskirts of Ibadan. Read a comprehensive account of how Aguiyi-Ironsi was killed here.
Aside from the Head of State and Western Military governor, many other casualties were recorded in the army and most killed or maimed were Easterners, particularly Igbos. This will be one of the many reasons the country would go into a civil war the following year as the Eastern region tried seceding.
54 years after, we remember this gruesome act done in the Brown Roof City and how much has happened or changed since then.
General Sani Abacha is perhaps Nigeria’s most enigmatic head of state. He reigned from 1993 until his death in 1998. General Abacha was born in Kano state, northern Nigeria on September 20, 1943. He hails from Kanuri in Borno state.
He passed out of the Nigerian Military Training Centre in Kaduna where he proceeded to Mons Officer Cadet School in Aldershot, England before being commissioned as a 2nd lieutenant in 1963.
He is held by some as Nigeria’s most successful coup plotter. When he was still a Second Lieutenant with the 3rd Battalion in Kaduna, he took part in the July 1966 Nigerian counter-coup from the conceptual stage. He could well have been a participant in the Lagos or Abeokuta phases of the coup the previous January as well…Click Here To Continue Reading>> …Click Here To Continue Reading>>
Abacha fought for Nigeria in the country’s civil war against Biafran secessionists continuing to rise through the army ranks.
He was instrumental in the 1983 Nigerian coup d’état which brought General Muhammadu Buhari to power as well as the August 1985 coup which removed him from power. He announced the coup which removed the government of Shehu Shagari.
When General Ibrahim Babangida was named President of Nigeria in 1985, Abacha was named Chief of Army Staff. He was appointed Minister of Defence in 1990. With Babangida’s resignation, an interim government headed by civilian President, Ernest Shonekan was formed.
Sani Abacha became the first Nigerian soldier to attain the rank of a full General without skipping a single rank in 1993. In the same year, he moved for the ultimate.
Shonekan resigned and transferred power to Sani Abacha in a move widely believed to be another bloodless coup. In September 1994, he issued a decree that placed his government above the jurisdiction of the courts, effectively giving him absolute power. Another decree gave him the right to detain anyone for up to three months without trial.
Abacha is noted for helping restore peace and democracy to Sierra Leone and Liberia after the civil wars.
On his administration of the Nigerian state proper, he established The Petroleum Trust Fund aimed to address major economic issues facing the country at the time. Between 25-100km of urban road in major cities such as Kano, Gusau, Benin, Funtua, Zaria, Enugu, Kaduna, Aba, Lagos, Lokoja, and Port Harcourt was planned to be constructed each. A N27.3bn contract was awarded for road rehabilitation in the first quarter of 1996.
There was a restructuring of major insurance companies that supported SMEs across the entire country.
Abacha mandated the PTF to publicise its accounts as it was the second-largest public corporation at the time. In 1997, the account of PTF showed that it disbursed N24.3bn on roads, N21.2bn on security, N7.8bn on health, and N3bn on other projects. Other disbursements include N2.2bn on water supply, N936m on food supply and N476m on education. It realized a total of N1.049bn from various investment activities.
It’s curious the sums which emerged after his death that he stashed in overseas accounts as the Abacha administration became the first to record unprecedented economic achievements overseeing an increase in the country’s foreign exchange reserves from $494 million in 1993 to $9.6 billion by the middle of 1997.

He also reduced the external debt of Nigeria from $36 billion in 1993 to $27 billion by 1997. His Petroleum (Special) Trust Fund is also hailed for infrastructural projects and interventionist programmes in education, water and health.
His wife is credited with setting up the National Hospital in Abuja viewed as Nigeria’s foremost national hospital, which was initially set up as a hospital for women and children before its upgrade.
Nonetheless, Abacha was ruthless with groups he considered hostile to his administration between 1993 and 1998. There was a crackdown on the civil rights groups, media and pro-democracy groups.
It was also under him that Nigeria became a perpetual importer of petroleum products as the refineries packed up. The emergence of the ‘foul fuel’ which damaged car engines and released a repugnant smell was in his time.
General Sani Abacha earned the title ‘Thug of the Year’ from Time magazine in 1995 after the execution of Ken Saro-Wiwa. Abacha developed the habit of working only at night. Availing himself to be seen publicly rarely while being averse to granting interviews.
The events of his death on June 8, 1998, at the presidential villa in Abuja are murky and while the official account is that he suffered a heart attack, other accounts say he was in the company of two Indian sex workers flown in from Dubai when he died. He was buried on the same day, according to Muslim tradition, without an autopsy. This fueled speculation that he may have been murdered by political rivals via poison.
Foreign diplomats, including United States Intelligence analysts, believed that his drink or fruit (apple) was laced with a poisonous substance while in the company of prostitutes.
Abacha was married to Maryam Abacha with whom he had had seven sons and three daughters.
In March 2014, the United States Department of Justice revealed that it had frozen more than $458 million believed to have been illegally obtained by Abacha and other corrupt officials.
On 7 August 2014, the United States Department of Justice announced the largest forfeiture in its history: the return of $480 million to the Nigerian government.
Stashed sums in other accounts have been discovered with the Nigerian government working to have the funds returned.
