fergie001: They rejected Badagry & Ibeju-Lekki earlier ...mthough majority agreed but the SLA Chairman that took the cad eto Court refused.
So, according to the Governor....They will identify plots available at the Shangisha area then NEGOTIATE for the remaining ones. The appropriate name for the association of the indigenes is "Association of Shangisha LANDOWNERS" NOT LANDLORDS. |

LagosShia: 1500 year-old ‘ Syriac ‘ Bible found in Ankara, Turkey : Vatican in shock !

Ancient Bible in Aramaic dialected Syriac rediscovered in Turkey
The relic was ‘rediscovered’ in the depositum of Ankaran Justice Palace, the ancient version of bible is believed to be written in Syriac, a dialect of the native language of Jesus.
Ankara / Turkey – The bible was already in custody of Turkish authorities after having been seized in 2000 in an operation in Mediterranean area in Turkey. The gang of smugglers had been charged with smuggling antiquities, illegal excavations and the possession of explosives and went to trial. Turkish police testified in a court hearing they believe the manuscript in the bible could be about 1500 to 2000 years old.After waiting eight years in Ankara the ancient bible is being transferred to the Ankaran Ethnography Museum with a police escort. Ancient Bible will be shown in Ankaran Ethnography Museum
The bible, whose copies are valued around 3-4 Mil. Dollars had been transferred to Ankara for safety reasons, since no owners of the ancient relic could be found.
The manuscript carries excerpts of the Bible written in gold lettering on leather and loosely strung together, with lines of Syriac script with Aramaic dialect. Turkish authorities express the bible is a cultural asset and should be protected for being worthy of a museum.
Ancient Bible in Aramaic dialected Syriac rediscovered in Turkey
Syriac is a dialect of Aramaic – the native language of Jesus – once spoken across much of the Middle East and Central Asia. It is used wherever there are Syrian Christians and still survives in the Syrian Orthodox Church in India and a village in the vicinity of Syrian capital Damascus. Aramaic is also still used in religious rituals of Maronite Christians in Cyprus.
Experts were however divided over the provenance of the manuscript, and whether it was an original, which would render it priceless, or a fake. Other questions surround the discovery of the ancient bible, whether the smugglers had had other copies of the relic or had smuggled them from Turkey.
Vatican eyes the faith of the ancient relic
The Vatican reportedly placed an official request to examine the scripture, which was written on pages made of animal hide in the Aramaic language using the Syriac alphabet.
The copy of the ancient Bible is valued as high as 40 million Turkish Liras ( 28 Mil. Dollars)

Explorers: This is the incredible moment a pilot became the first to land an Airbus A340 on Antartica.
The cargo jet was chartered by Wolf's Fang, a new luxury holiday camp at the South Pole, to bring supplies to their tourist resort.
The plane touched down on the icy runway on Tuesday after a 2,800-mile journey taking just over five hours from Cape Town.
The runway at the Wolf Fang resort is designated a C Level airport, meaning that only a highly specialised crew of pilots can fly there due to the extreme conditions.

PediakAuthor: The pencil-work reflects a chapter of the Chess Of Nature - with the ultimate goal to celebrate the beauty of the indigenous Y'ooba language.
In sum, this multilingual artwork is a localized tutorial on how to play the game of Chess.
The NETISM Author is also a well-seasoned English-Yoruba Technical Translation Service Provider.

Travel › Re: Why You Shouldn't Risk Going To Western World For Greener Pastures! by AlphaTaikun: 10:35pm On Nov 25, 2021 |
Bigkoko: Go to countries your currency is at par with or greater than. It's simple economics!
Why you shouldn't risk starting a new life in Europe or America.
Granted these two continents-- Western part of them, has done a lot in term of Development. They're virtually top in all indices of human Development, yet they harbor a secret no one tells you! Life is cruel there. You're going to live your entire life working to sustain the goohooo of a life there. Just ask the 79% of those in western hemisphere, who learnt this the hardest Way! It's the most unfriendly and most wasteful place for a young, energetic, AAfrican, skilled or not, to go in the virtual world we now live.
It grieves my business side seeing hitherto prosperous young talented Africans trooping down to go start a menial job in Europe USA or Canada, with the attendant high cost of migration, harassment, profile and all sorts of stuff these guys subject you to.
Let's take for instance, going to Canada will cost you about 6700 dollars in direct spendings and a further 2000 in available cash at hand. Yet you are not assured of a good, readily available job there. Except a one percent, who are usually hyped!
This is good money you can use and set up a fairly large Company by African Standard in Rwanda, Or any other African country with a sane leader, and with the necessary papers that comes with it, you can visit these same countries like you would your village. Plus respect added.
No one tells you this because Africa is plagued by poor leadership, illiteracy and near absence of good counsel by the leaders. It's behold on the Young to actually craft a frontier for themselves..
Granted, Nigerians, Ghanaians, and other western African countries are leading in technical, entrepreneurship and commercial activities. It beholds on these folks to turn black Africa around. Africa for Africans, and a Fair equitable transaction on the international space. That's how Asia came to what it is today. No more spoon feeding, aids or charity. No more folks sitting down in far away European, Asian or American boulevard deciding what is good for us! Are you a blacksmith, come over and Design farming implement that fits our environment. Are you a financial guru, come and forge a business relationship with an IT guru to provide us an African PayPal. What ever you are good at come, Bigkoko® African Integrated Services LTD will guide you professionally!
Granted, Most African countries lack leaders with same vision and foresight of the tall guy in Rwanda. Look my friend, do you know MTN is actually a bank & a Telecom giant here? Do you know rain/thunderstorm or not, electric power is constant? Do you know the electric bills in my house is actually half a dollar (500rwf) for two weeks, and constant? Utility companies bill me exactly what I use. Do you know immediately I recharge electricity instantly gets connected, no network failure?. Don't tell it's because of low population, that's a lame excuse. Don't you know all gigantic projects are first produced on small scales? Like Fractional Distillation in the lab-Refinery as big as a small city! Do you know the I.T Integration here is amongst the best in Africa? Do you know they actually write, read and write documents, contracts in their local language just like Europeans, Asians do?
Granted, Rwandans lack basic technical skills, skills you'd get by the flick of a finger in Lagos, Aba, Onitshe, Port Harcourt, Kumasi, Cotonou, Accra etc. The horror of yesterday's now a motivation to make something out of their country! Gradually, EAC- East Africa Community, RWANDA, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, DRC Congo, Burundi is moving towards the likelihood of Schengen in Africa. This is why cross border businesses should spring up now! Break down the trade barriers, and get you an African Schengen!
Nough can not be said about the prospects of striking gold here. The price for commodities is high...good for business! Rent is comparable to a small east European city, manageable. Food is abundantly cheap... I mean healthy farm products. Export bureaucracy is lax..a huge thumbs up to the government. Bureaucratic bottle necks among government parastatals; near zero! Import tax on the other hand is high...this I found understandable because they don't have the luxury of natural resources like other African countries. These are verified facts. Weather is wholesome... like you are in western hemisphere. Why do you think Europeans love this country! It's like mini Brussel!
Don't be like our brothers in south part of Africa who sat still, did nothing, delight in sex until the whites took total & complete control of their economy. Now they're busy rioting and breaking into businesses owned by those who did something. The fact they don't know: if you send the whites parking now, you end up like Zimbabwe! Hahahaha.
At the moment, the Indians, Pakistani, Lebanese, Chinese, Europeans are actually arriving to Strategically place themselves in all sector of the economy Including those I'm sure we Africans can do well at! The Law for Business Registration is friendly, take advantage of it! Deep insights! |
