Are there terms for alkanes, alkene, alkynes, sets, in our local dialect?


We should move forward and not backward for God's sakes. If it's not enough to make fulani invaders kill people anyhow, this administration wants to take this country back to the stone ages. Phew, even Modern day Chinese many are shying from theirnative language.

The Chinese, Indians, and a host of other countries found a way to teach all of the above in their language so we will also find a way, and where did you get this your Chinese story from?

True. The thermodynamics is just off due to heat losses between the body of the container and the environment which will be made worse by the distance between the flame and the pot. It would be better if the entire body is insulated, and the space between where the wood burns and the pot needs to be reduced

Typical Nigerian, it would be better if you had first commended the effort first, highlighted the defects subtly and ask him/her to contact you for suggestions to upgrade it

Very pathetic Nigerians and journalists will leave substance and keep chasing shadows, shouldn't the journalist rather try and trace the money trail instead of trying to find out if somebody turned To snake or not. Check whether this Jamb lady is living within her means as a civil servant and how she is conducting herself in her environ would be better information than this poo he is giving out.

Surviving scions of the Baba-Ahmed family
are presently 22. The family has lost its
patriarch, and 11 sons and daughters over
the years. Members of the family have
established themselves in the Nigerian public
and private spheres, with the size of the
family making their presence felt in various
sectors of the nation. In Zaria, Kaduna State,
the family is known for Islamic scholarship,
courtesy of the founder’s acknowledged firm
grip of Islamic jurisprudence, which earned
him a place in the Zazzau emirate council as
counselor for two emirs in Shari’a and
Islamic jurisprudence. Despite Baba-Ahmed’s
possession of Islamic knowledge and his
status as a scholar in a typical Hausa
community, he did not only enroll his wards
in Western schools, but encouraged and
supported them. As a Mauritanian cattle-
trader, Zaria enticed Baba-Ahmed as the city
was recognised as a hub of Islamic
scholarship. He decided to migrate to the
ancient city, and succeeded in building a
dynasty. Aside Mahmoon Baba-Ahmed,
Mahadiyya Baba-Ahmed is the eldest
surviving child of the family. She told Daily
Trust that all the 33 sons and daughters of
Baba-Ahmed were either born at their family
house at No. 17 Baba-Ahmed Road, Tudun
Wada, Zaria or in the staff quarters of
Barewa College, Zaria. Mahadiyya said: “I
attended Elementary School, Tudun Wada,
Zaria the school that is now known as Baba-
Ahmed Model Primary School. I did my
senior primary school in Babban Dodo, Zaria.
From there I got married and I am blessed
with children. After my husband died, I went
back to school, where I obtained Diploma in
Shari’a Law at the Ahmadu Bello University,
Zaria. I have been involved in humanitarian
activities, particularly assisting women and
children. I have a school for that purpose.
The school has been established about 30
years ago. The school has many sections;
nursery, primary, secondary, Qur’an
memorisation, Islamiyya and adult classes
for women. The school is known as Baba-
Ahmed Foundation for Higher Islam and
Science Education. I am now about 68, as I
was born in 1949.”
aliyukwaifa@dailytrust.com Malama
Mahadiyya said she grew up to see her father
teaching in the famous Barewa College in
Zaria. Some of his wives, she said, were
living in Barewa College, while others were in
Tudun Wada. She explained that the children
that were in Barewa had to come down to
school in Tudun Wada. She said one of the
attributes of their father was his passion for
giving sound training to his children. Before
enrolling into Western school, Baba-Ahmed’s
children had to first of all take Islamic
lessons at home, from age four to six. Aside
going to an Islamic school that is now known
as Nurul Huda, Baba-Ahmed’s wives also
taught his children from books on Islamic
jurisprudence. Mahadiyya said: “Another
interesting thing we learnt from our father is
the fact that he doesn’t believe in sorcery. He
referred every sickness to hospitals, even in
those days. This has really informed our
perception of things. We developed the
culture of believing only in Allah.” She
continued: “I think he imbibed that culture
because of the fact that he was an Islamic
scholar. In Mauritania, his country of origin,
seeking for Islamic knowledge was
compulsory on every citizen. Therefore,
virtually every citizen has fair knowledge of
Islamic jurisprudence. When he came to
Nigeria, he did not portray himself as a
scholar. He concentrated on his business. He
supplied meat to the Depot Nigerian Army in
Zaria, and other institutions. Because of the
fact that one cannot hide knowledge, he
therefore couldn’t hide his scholarship. It
was on that ground that he was requested to
teach in Barewa College, and eventually made
the Imam of the school.” Baba-Ahmed’s
erudition of Islamic jurisprudence attracted
the attention of the Zazzau palace. The first
to invite Baba Ahmed to the palace as advisor
on Shari’ah and Islamic jurisprudence was
Emir Ja’afar Dan Isiyaku. Mahadiyya said: “I
also know when he was made a counselor on
Shari’a and Islamic matters to the late Emir
of Zazzau Alhaji Muhammad Aminu. Our
father was a scholar, but he was not the type
that flaunts it.” Baba-Ahmed moved to Zaria
through Benin and Ghana. He developed an
interest in migrating to Zaria following the
then-trending reality that put Zaria as a
centre of learning. “He’d been hearing of the
prominence of Zaria on Islamic scholarship,”
Mahadiyya said.“He developed interest in
Zaria in order to interact with some of the
scholars. Our father finally came to Zaria
after some people had failed to pay him back
his cattle money. He used to transport cattle
from Mauritania to Benin and Ghana.
Therefore, when his customers in Benin
failed to pay his money, he decided to move
to Zaria.” She added: “Before then, our
father used to visit Sokoto, before eventually
coming to Zaria to settle. He has revealed to
us his ties with the then Wazirin Sokoto,
Malam Junaidu, the grandfather of the
Waziri that died recently. When our father
came to Zaria, he met a culture where
women were not allowed to acquire
education. Therefore, when he married our
mothers, he educated them himself. This
allowed them to also teach his children. Our
father came to Zaria alone, and got his wives,
and bore all of us here.” Another attribute of
Baba-Ahmed was encouraging kinship, and he
taught his children to love one another
irrespective of the polygamous nature of his
family. A child from wife A, for example,
would grow up in wife’s B care, and so on.
This saw his children grow up without the
drama that typifies many polygamous
homes. Mahadiyya said their father doesn’t
have any relations here in Nigeria, making
him stress the importance and need for his
children to be their brothers’ keepers.
“Another attribute of our father is his
emphasis on hierarchy of seniority exists in
the relationship of his children. In our
family, an elder brother or sister is always
respected, no matter what. We respect each
other. To ensure that, he made us eat from
one dish when we were young. He only
separated boys from girls, but we all ate
together. “This is why we are still united.
Brothers like Dr. Hakeem see us as mothers,
and listen to whatever instruction I dish out.
Mahmoon is my elder brother, but because
of that training, we don’t call him by his
name, we say ‘Baba Mahmoon’. The impact of
that training is still in our blood.” Baba-
Ahmed gave birth to 33 children. He died and
left 30 behind. After his demise, 10 have
died, leaving 20. However, if a number would
be put to the Baba-Ahmed, the number
would run in hundreds. Mahadiyya said:
“Even on my own side alone, I think we
should be more than 50, if children,
grandchildren and great grandchildren are to
be taken into account.” The Baba-Ahmed
family generally remember their late
patriarch for his desire to impart knowledge
on them, and the general community. “Any
interaction you have with him, you are likely
to learn new things,” Mahadiyya said. Many
members of the Baba-Ahmed family have
become prominent, earning the family name
fame around Nigeria, and beyond. Nafi’u is a
lawyer, who became prominent with the late
General Sani Abacha’s failed-bank crusade,
and led the investigation that resulted to
arrest and jailing of many offenders.
Abdulmalik is the present General Manager
of Alheri/DITV Radio and Television, Kaduna.
There is Muftahu, who has worked with
now-defunct NEPA. There is Datti, who was a
Senator and presently the proprietor of Baze
University, Abuja. Also, there is Abdulsalam,
who was once a Zaria local government
chairman and commissioner in different
ministries of Kaduna State; There is
Abdulrashid, who is a twin brother of
Abdulsalam. He is now a director in the
Ministry of Justice. Mahmoon’s profile rose
after his exploits in the coverage of the
Maitatsine crisis in Kano as the
correspondent of the Federal Radio
Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN), Kaduna. Dr.
Hakeem is described by many a fount of
knowledge and talent. He was a former
Permanent Secretary, INEC Secretary and
now Chief of Staff to the Senate President.
There are others, like Sa’idu, Shafi’i and
many more. Also noteworthy, is the late
veteran broadcaster and media mogul
Khallifa Baba-Ahmed. Mahadiyya told Daily
Trust that the family converges once in a
year, in a meeting they have dubbed ‘Taron
Gona’ (Hausa for ‘Farm Meeting’). “Everyone
would come with children and grandchildren.
We used to meet at an actual farm, but we
were advised against that because of
kidnapping fears. The gathering used to be a
very large one, where we have lectures,
sports and other activities. The children’s
event usually takes the form of an inter-
house competition, with houses named after
our late father’s closest friends, like
Abubakar Sahabi, Shafi’i, Hamidu, Abubakar
Imam, Emir Aminu, among others. At the end
of the competition, the winner is presented
with a trophy.” Football matches between
Baba-Ahmed club and the host village, where
the farm is located, used to be part of the
annual meeting. Despite the family’s large -
and growing - number, even grandchildren
recognise one another, many thanks to the
Taron Gona. Mahadiyya said their father
experienced a bit of discrimination in his
early years in Nigeria, but he endured. “That
is why we are where we are now. We grew
up in the midst of friends, and up to now we
see ourselves as one. To cap it all, our father
was the first Imam of Haruna Danja Juma’at
mosque. And as I said earlier, he was one of
the counselors of some emirs of Zazzau. His
host community recognised him as a scholar,
and entrusted him with the task of teaching
Islamic education. What else can a people do
more than entrusting you with their religious
life?” Baba-Ahmed died when he was about
95, on the 5th of November, 1987, but his
name and legacy live on. https://www.dailytrust.com.ng/amplite/baba-ahmed-how-a-mauritanian-built-a-nigerian-dynasty.html?__twitter_impression=true

Great development, this would reposition NIPOST, provide jobs for Nigeria and put Life into the rural areas

Nigerian Postal Service, NIPOST, has declared
that Electronic Money Order will debut in Nigeria
in February, just as Postmaster General of the
Nigerian Postal Service (NPS), Mr. Bisi Adegbuyi
said the planned restructuring and modernisation
of the Service will not lead to job loss.
Also, the Director General, Bureau of Public
Enterprises, Mr. Alex Okoh, said the reform would
lead to the unbundling of NIPOST to have
standalone business components that will project
the agency brand, provide efficient service and
be put on a profitable path.
The DG disclosed this when the Postmaster
General of the Nigerian Postal Service (NPS), Mr.
Bisi Adegbuyi led the management team of the
Postal Service on a courtesy visit to the BPE in
Abuja.
Okoh noted that NIPOST has great potentials and
given the right incentives and business strategy,
it would become efficient and profitable. He
pledged to work with the management of NIPOST
and accommodate their views to transform
NIPOST into a viable entity.
Okoh said that the final decision on the
restructuring would be dependent on the outcome
of the work of the Advisers engaged for the
transaction.
He added that, “although the Bureau has the
mandate for this reform, we are collaborating
with all the critical stakeholders to ensure that the
reform in NIPOST is carried out without hitches.
The Bureau is always conscious of the
macroeconomic impact of carrying out its
mandate of reform and privatisation.”
Adegbuyi promised that the organisation was
ready for the reform and has begun restructuring
in readiness for it. “NIPOST has been re-
engineered to carry out certain services, among
them are E-commerce, E-insurance, rural
banking and a Post Youth Engagement Strategy,
aimed at engaging the youth who form the vast
population of Nigeria.
The Service also plans to offer to the Nigerian
public, NIPOST’s Electronic Money Order will
debut in Nigeria in February this year.” https://www.vanguardngr.com/2018/01/nipost-operate-electronic-money-order-february/

Remarks By Babatunde Raji Fashola, SAN At The 23rd Monthly Power Sector Operators Meeting Held In Lafia, Nasarawa State, Monday 8th January, 2018 I will like to start this my remarks by highlighting the Progress and milestones on our journey for incremental power which reassure us that we are on the right path and inspire us to continue with more belief. Those milestones are represented by: a. Generated power has gone up to 7000 MW in 2017 from 3,000 MW in May 2015 b. Transmission Capacity at 6900MW in 2017 from about 5,000 MW in May 2015 c. Peak Distribution now averaging 5,000 MW in 2017 from 2,690MW in 2015. That said I will like to thank all of you for your contributions towards these milestones. The reason I thank you is because you are impacting the lives of Nigerians, you are saving them money and changing their lifestyles for the better. They tell me that their consumption of diesel and petrol to run generators for power has reduced and the hours they run their generators has gradually reduced. This is the result of incremental power and we must get more of it. They also tell me that they are now monitoring how they use power and are turning off appliances that are not needed. Although this is meant to save costs, it also conserves energy, reduces waste and supports incremental power. In the last 3 months we have increased the supply of power in the dry weather and people’s experience with power was better. We must thank the Ministry of Petroleum Resources for the increase in gas supply . The cynics who used to say that it is only during the rains that power improves now see that what we have done is no fluke. Apart from Gas other stakeholders are also taking commendable steps. A few months ago the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) formally presented the Mini Grid Regulations at this meeting and its impact is beginning to manifest. Last month in Abuja, Nigeria through the Rural Electrification Agency hosted a Mini Grids Summit that is the largest ever attended in Africa with 600 participants from about 40 Countries. The word is spreading around the world as mini grids will help us connect more people and boost incremental power. We are also putting together a policy position to help expand the distribution network of the DisCos and use this to distribute the 2000MW that is currently available but cannot be distributed. I also use the opportunity to call out to Manufacurers to let us know where they are, how much power they need, and how we can connect you because we have 2000 MW of undistributed power. This year we should work harder to increase our people’s access to meters and reduce the incidents of estimated billing as NERC concludes the Meter Regulations that will open up the meters supply and installation business. In the first few days of the new year we suffered a set back to our power supply which was caused by damage to the gas supply network around Okada. First, I want to repeat that gas is the fuel that most of the generation companies use to produce electricity and all of us have a stake in ensuring that they are not damaged. Secondly, I am happy to inform Nigerians that as at last night the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) informed us that repairs have been completed. We thank and commend them for their response. Thirdly, what remains is to test the lines and restore pressure and supply to the generation companies. One by one all the stakeholders from GenCos, TCN and DisCos will work to restore supply to the levels they were before the pipeline damage. From there we will continue our journey of incremental power. I wish you all a happy new year. Babatunde Raji Fashola, SAN Honourable Minister of Power, Works and Housing 8th January 2018

verily after hardship comes ease

As farmers began crop harvest, prices of local
rice has dropped by about 25 per cent in
Maiduguri, Borno, and newsmen report.
A check by newsmen at Gamboru and Customs
Area Markets in Maiduguri indicated that prices of
the commodity had dropped in the past two
months since the beginning of crop harvest by
farmers.
Rice
Newsmen report that rice farmers had recorded
bumper harvests this cropping season, forcing
the prices of the staple food crushing.
A 50kg bag of local rice goes for between N6,500
and N7,200 as against the old price of N9,000,
while a measure of the produce is sold at N380.
The development has affected the price of refined
rice which also declined.
A 50kg bag is being sold at between N15,000 and
N16,500 from the old price of N17,500.
A measure of the commodity now go for N900 as
against N1,050, depending on its quality.
Prices of other produce had also dropped
significantly in the past months as a measure of
maize is sold at N280, beans N450 and millet
N350, as against the previous prices of N420,
N600 and N500, respectively.
Similarly, a measure of groundnut oil i sold at
N280 as against N500.
Traders at the markets attributed the drop in
prices to improvement in the supply of food
commodities to the markets.
Malam Ali Muhammad, a rice dealer, said that
prices of rice were falling on daily basis in view of
the fresh supplies from the farms.
Muhammad also attributed the situation to
improvement in the supply of local produce to the
market, adding that the development is
encouraging.
“There is a significant increase in the number of
farmers who cultivated rice and other produce
this cropping season.
“Prices will further go down as supply improves,’’
he said.
Muhammad said that rice dealers were now
enjoying appreciable patronage.
Also commenting, Ya-Ana Yusuf, a peanut
grower, said that the massive mobilisation of
farmers in liberated communities had encouraged
production and forced grain prices down in the
state.
Malam Muhammad Dungus, a resident,
expressed joy over the development, and urged
traders to further reduce their prices.
Newsmen report that the Federal Government in
collaboration with Food and Agriculture
Organisation (FAO) had distributed fertilisers,
seeds and inputs to over 1.1 million farmers in
the Northeast this cropping season.
More than 5,000 rice farmers were also
supported by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN)
under the Anchor Borrowers Scheme in Borno.

They are dressed but naked just like those whom seek to imitate they have exposed to the world what Allah has commanded them to cover for His sake. They have already called amoral men to look at them and desire them with intention of evil.

He added: “I called President Obasanjo on phone two days ago and he said to me that the National Orientation Agency was necessary when we had no political parties. What is the value of the National Orientation Agency in today’s world for instance? Yet billions of naira is spent in it. Let us look at agencies that make no sense and sell them to staff. FRCN has 8,000 workers. Sell it to them. Sell NTA to the staff. Voice of Nigeria… Who listens to Voice of Nigeria? Sell it. If the staff want to buy, let them buy it. Set up a cooperative, like Awolowo did, sell it to them. If we spend 71 per cent on recurrent expenditure, we will never get out of this predicament.”

Deputy senate president, Ike Ekweremadu, who chaired the session, noted: “Without revenue, we will have no money to do expenditure. We must point out, in the course of the debate, how we will reduce deficit. Ben Bruce has told us that some government agencies that should not be in existence anymore including the Voice of Nigeria (VON), which nobody is listening to. We need to point out some of these MDAs that are of no consequence and are adding no value, so that we don’t keep spending money on them. That way, we will be able to reduce the ratio between capital and the recurrent and, of course, reduce deficit.

“I hope government will listen to such exposure and be able to do away with such agencies. If the government fails to remove those agencies from our budget, we have a responsibility to Nigerians to bring bills in order to repeal the laws that set them up and stop waste of our resources.”
