Politics / Leaving The Fate Of Elections In The Hands Of Military,unconstitutional – APC by adonisNEW(m): 7:21pm On Feb 21, 2015 |
The All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Organisation (APCPCO) has described the idea of having military chiefs determine when elections will hold as a mockery of democracy. The APCPCO said this, Friday, in Abuja, following Wednesday’s assertion to the Senate by the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Professor Attahiru Jega, that service chiefs would have to ratify the March 28 date for the presidential election. In a statement by the organisation’s Director, Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu, it called on INEC to take cognisance of the courts’ ruling on the role of the military in elections and the military’s own commitment of its readiness to deploy troops for the 2015 elections. “The idea of placing the fate of democracy in the hands of the military is not only alien to the Nigerian constitution; extant judicial pronouncements have clearly stipulated that the military has no duty to play in the conduct of elections. “We are not comfortable with any attempt to draft the military into election function and are reassured by the declaration by President Jonathan that the elections would hold as scheduled by INEC on March 28 and April 11. “We have carefully studied positions made by the INEC chairman, Professor Attahiru Jega, on the floor of the Senate on Wednesday and we want to put it on record that we are not in any way comfortable with the idea that service chiefs will determine whether the March 28 date of the presidential election is feasible or not. “The concepts of democracy and the military are never complementary, and to say that the military will determine when an election will hold is antithetical to the very idea of democracy. It is akin to a coup against the people of Nigeria to subject the fate of our democracy in the hands of a few military service chiefs. “For the avoidance of any doubts, the APC presidential campaign organisation will not accept any attempt to subvert the electoral processes of democracy in the country. “The Nigerian constitution is very clear about how the electoral processes in the country should be run and there is no single clause of the constitution that makes the service chiefs to preside over the conduct of elections. “Furthermore, there are extant judicial pronouncements specifically at two Courts of Appeal, the recent being that on the Ekiti governorship election that bars the military from undertaking any role whatsoever in the conduct of elections in the country. These are in addition to a similar pronouncement by the Supreme Court. “The only role that the constitution assigns to the military is to protect the territorial integrity of the country and not to determine if and when an election should hold. “As far as we are concerned at the APC presidential campaign organisation, we are ready for the elections on March 28 and April 11, and INEC is ready as confirmed by Professor Jega during the plenary of the Senate and Nigerians are also ready for the election,” the statement read in part. www.informationng.com/2015/02/leaving-the-fate-of-elections-in-the-hands-of-the-military-is-unconstitutional-apc.html |

It said that the ongoing recruitment as being handled by the Presidential Committee set up to assist in the conduct of 2015 Immigration recruitment exercise would be fair and transparent.

Health / 9 Simple Ways To Prevent Cancer by adonisNEW(m): 7:42am On Feb 21, 2015 |
Well, if you have a healthy lifestyle, chances are you probably won’t get the dreaded cancer! This is because “As many as 70% of known causes of cancers are avoidable and related to lifestyle,” says Thomas A. Sellers, PhD, associate director for cancer prevention and control at Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa. Diet, exercise, and avoidance of tobacco products are, of course,some of the first precautions to be taken, but recent research has uncovered many small, surprising ways you can weave even more disease prevention into your everyday life. Here are a few things you can do to prevent the chances of cancer: 1. Filter your tap water When you filter your water, your chances of being opened to chemicals that are very dangerous to your hormones are very low. A report from the President’s Cancer Panel on how to reduce this exposure suggests that home-filtered tap water is a safer than bottled water, whose quality often is not higher—and in some cases is worse. Always store your water in stainless steel or glass to avoid chemical contaminants that can percolate from plastic bottles. 2. Stop topping your Car tank the President’s Cancer Panel has mace it known that pumping one last squirt of gas into your car after the nozzle clicks off can spill fuel and foil the pump’s vapor recovery system, designed to keep toxic chemicals such as cancer-causing benzene out of the air, where they can come in contact with your skin or get into your lungs. 3. Marinate meat first Always allow your processed, charred, and well-done meats to get absorbed in a sauce or its flavoring. This is because the meats can contain cancer-causing heterocyclic amines, which form when meat is cooked at a very high temperature. Note that the fact that a meat is burnt does not mean it is totally cooked. If possible, cut down on grilled meat, but if not, make sure the meats are well- seasoned before you proceed to cook them. 4. Caffeinated Cofees every day Goes a long way It has been made known that drinking 5 or more cups of caffeinated coffee a day has a 40% decrease the risk of brain cancer, compared to those who drank less. A 5-cup- a-day coffee habit reduces risks of oral and throat cancer almost as much. 5. Water down your risk Drinking plenty of water and other liquids may reduce the risk of bladder cancer by diluting the concentration of cancer-causing agents in urine and helping to flush them through the bladder faster. Drink at least 8 cups of liquid a day, suggests the American Cancer Society. 6. Burn off your risk Moderate exercise such as walking 2 hours a week cuts risk of breast cancer 18%. Regular workouts may lower your risks by helping you burn fat, which otherwise produces its own estrogen, a known contributor to breast cancer. 7. Head off cell phone risks Always use earphones when you are on a long call. Do not take a long call with your ears stuck to your phone. This increases Cancer risks. Use your cell phone only for short calls or texts, or use a hands-free device that keeps the phone—and the radio frequency energy it emits—away from your head. 8. Wear colors of clothes that can ‘prevent’ cancer Choosing your outdoor outfit wisely may help protect against skin cancer, say Spanish scientists. In their research, blue and red fabrics offered significantly better protection against the sun’s UV rays than white and yellow ones did. Also never forget to leave your home without your hat. 9. Increase your calcium intake Milk’s main claim to fame may also help protect you from colon cancer. Those who took calcium faithfully for 4 years had a 36% reduction in the development of new precancerous colon polyps 5 years after the study had ended, revealed Dartmouth Medical School researchers. (They tracked 822 people who took either 1,200 mg of calcium every day or a placebo.) Though the study was not on milk itself, you can get the same amount of calcium in three 8-ounce glasses of fat-free milk, along with an 8-ounce serving of yogurt or a 2- to 3-ounce serving of low-fat cheese daily. www.walterhowel.com/2015/02/9-simple-ways-to-prevent-cancer.html?m=1 |

Health / Scietists Say, Sugar Is Slowly Killingus by adonisNEW(m): 4:03pm On Feb 20, 2015 |
All of us like sweets – it’s a constant. But who could thought that a pure pleasure is addictive and slowly killing us all, according to scientists. Scietists believe that our decline in health (obesity, metabolic syndrome, heart diseases, diabetes, cancer) over the past few decades is directly connected with global increase in ingestion of fructose, sucrose, HFCS and other substances. Sugar is a sweet drug Dr Lustic claims that sugar is an addictive toxin that damages public health to the point that we now need government intervention. It’s addictive, stimulating as it does the release of feel-good hormone dopamine – and the food industry knows it. Manufactures benefit from people’s health Food manufacturers pump it into everything from ‘low fat’ yoghurt to ready meals and breakfast cereal. They do this to make food taste nicer. What is even more bad is that such foods tend to have all the fibre stripped out, and fibre can help to slow digestion, regulate appetite, and reduce fat storage. Damaging impacts on the body Studies illustrate that large intakes of refined sugar cause huge spikes in insulin which promote fat storage. Over a period of time, this can lead to insulin resistance and leptin resistance – leptin is the hormone that sends signals to decrease your appetite. Than means your body becomes more and more inclined to store fat, whilst you remain hungry. But that does not mean you should completely cut sugar out of your diet. Just try to control the amount of sweets you consume (don’t forget about other sources of hidden sugars such as cereals, flavored yogurts, salad dressing, ketchup etc.) and minimize it. Be healthy, be strong! www.flatimes.com/2015/02/scietists-sugar-slowly-killing-us.html?m=1

Politics / Top 10 Jonathan's Electoral Promises by adonisNEW(m): 7:12pm On Feb 19, 2015 |
Few weeks are left before the presidential elections in Nigeria. And it is a period for candidates to assure Nigerians that they deserve this position. Incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan is not an exclusion. Jonathan is in the limelight, as his administration has been both criticized and praised for performance in the office. Still, what should Nigerians expect from from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and GEJ’s second term? Specifically, what did President Jonathan promise in the course of his campaign? 1. To uncover failures of ex-leaders Just at the very start, at the inauguration of the Goodluck/Sambo 2015 Presidential Campaign Organisation (PCO) , Jonathan vowed to expose the failings of Nigeria’s former leaders, and reinstate his administration’s commitment to the national interests. “When we start campaigns, we will confront them with what we have done as a government, we will tell them what they did not do when they were heads of state. Some people want to still keep these children as shoe cleaners, we must lift them up. Our children should not be used as cannon folders. They should be allowed to move forward to be governors like us.” 2. To strengthen democracy During the widely publicized Lagos campaign, Jonathan promised to “dialogue” with Nigerians, thus insisting that he is focused on advancing democratic principles in Nigeria. And to continue fighting corruption, which is called by critics as one of the worst sins of Jonathan’s administration. “We are building institutions to fight corruption.” 3. To rely on the youth Same Lagos rally. Jonathan praises young Nigerians adding that they will take the country “to the moon”. According to the President, it is time to give way to the younger generation. 4. To keep Nigeria intact Mid January the National Security Adviser and Special Adviser to President Jonathan on inter-party affairs held a Sensitization Workshop on Non-Violence in Abuja. GEJ dismissed one of the most popular pre- election assertions that Nigeria will break up after the polls. Hardly a promise, but more like a non- arguable assurance that the people should not fear the historical event. At least, President Jonathan seems to be confident that the base created by his administration is steady to avoid cracks. “Nigeria will not end.” 5. To ensure completion of the started projects Country’s leader paid an unscheduled visit to to the site of the second Niger bridge project at the Onitsha-Asaba axis . Jonathan explained that it is important for him to follow the progress with such big projects. Jonathan felt special responsibility after hearing rumours that things were not being done properly. “I decided that I must visit the site of the second Niger Bridge to know the level of work there because some people have been saying all sorts of things, so I said I must visit the site before coming to pay courtesy call on His Majesty. Work is in progress on the project.” 6. To improve healthcare services It was the success of dealing with Ebola that added credibility to this promise. Nigeria became a good example of the African country that had managed to contain the deadly virus spread. GEJ also attributed increase in life expectancy to the performance of his administration and said he would continue improving the level of living. “And the government I head will not rest on its oars in improving all our health indices to make sure that Nigerians not only live longer lives, but that we live better quality lives.” 7. To bring Boko Haram to justice Speaking during his his New Year nationwide broadcast GEJ touched upon one of the most painful issues for the nation: insurgency, that has claimed thousands of lives. “We will bring justice to the savage terrorists known as Boko Haram. They will be defeated.” 8. To rescue Chibok girls Not less painful matter of the school girls abduction during April 14, 2014, raid in Borno. In the course of his presidential campaign in the state capital Maiduguri, Jonathan promised that the children would be soon reunited with their families. “Whatever it takes to do this and to ensure the return of the Chibok girls we will do. “ 9. To hand over office The Presidential Media Chat was held February 11 , after the announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) about the elections postponement. The scandalous decision generated many reactions, with some alleging that Jonathan plotted to stay longer in the office. However, the President insisted that he was not afraid to lose. “If the elections are conducted and I lose, of course, another president would be sworn in.” 10. To develop railway links In one of his Facebook posts, President Jonathan disclosed his further plans, if he gets re-elected: “Our plan, which we intend to bring to fruition with your support, is to link every commercial and administrative capital in Nigeria by rail thereby bringing our people closer. We must continue to strengthen the bond of our union.” Only time will show who will emerge the winner of the forthcoming elections and if Goodluck Jonathan will fulfill his electoral promises, if chosen by Nigerians on March 28. Nigeria will decide, very soon! www.walterhowel.com/2015/02/top-10-jonathans-electoral-promises.html?m=1
