WHO to immunize 240,000 children against polio in Sokoto

Sokoto, April 29, 2015 ( NAN) The Wolrd Health Organization (WHO) says it will immunize 240,000 children with the Injactible Polio Vaccine (IPV) in three local government areas of Sokoto State.

The News Agency of Nigeria ( NAN) reports that this was disclosed in Sokoto on Wednesday by Dr Ana Chevez, the Supplemental Immunization Activities Officer, WHO Nigeria Office, in Abuja.

He said that the children would be immunised in Sokoto North, Sokoto South and Wamakko Local Governments areas between May 2 and May 6, 2015.

Chevez spoke at a one-day round- table discussion with members of Journalists Against Polio (JAP) in the state on the forthcoming exercise.

She said that the exercise was part of efforts to totally eradicate polio in Nigeria.

According to her, no fewer than 411 health camps, each with ten health personnel, community leaders and Hisbah officials, would be opened across the three local government areas during the exercise.

Rawani:
You are so mediocre. Those are basic provisions for survival, we are talking about propelling massive development through the efficient harnessing of the state's many resources in agriculture, leather, limestone, non-wood forest products (NWFP) like neem, Gum Arabic e.t.c. to mention a few. Its a pity years of misrule by the mishap called the PDP has reduced your expectations to spartan levels.

Increasing Access to Education in Northern Nigeria
April 16th 2013

Forty-two percent of primary-age children in this country, about 10.5 million, are out of school. Less than a third of primary school children proceed to junior secondary school and even fewer go on to complete secondary school.

The situation is worse in predominantly Muslim Northern Nigeria where primary school attendance and academic achievement are far below national averages. A recent USAID-funded assessment of reading skills in Hausa, the local language, in the Northern States of Bauchi and Sokoto found that about 70 percent of P3 (third grade) pupils could not read a single word of a simple narrative text.

In this region many students attend non-formal religious schools where the focus is on learning the Quran and Islamic values with no training in basic reading and math skills. In some schools male children (referred to as “Almajiri”) often leave very poor families to attend school and are encouraged to beg on the streets to pay for their care and instruction.

We've waited nearly a week for Buhari to name his aides.

At this slow pace, Buhari would need 15yrs to actualise his promises.
This man is so sloooooooooooooooow.

He is beginning to understand Aso Rock is not an OPH (old people's home)

What is all this impatience on Buhari's cabinet all about??... Please please and please, the man should be allowed some space to pick the right people

But Buhari, in the document titled, ‘I pledge to Nigeria’ had also said that all his political appointees would only earn salaries and allowances as prescribed by the Revenue and Mobilisation and Fiscal Allocation Commission.

He said, “I pledge to publicly declare my assets and liabilities, encourage all my appointees publicly declare their assets and liabilities as a pre-condition for appointment. All political appointees will only earn the salaries and allowances determined by the RMFAC.

The President of Nigeria was invited, but Goodluck Jonathan decided not to attend at the last minute. He worried that volcanic ash from an eruption in Iceland might delay his return flight to Nigeria; and this could disrupt his planned inauguration ceremonies on May 29.[17]

Sign agreement on no more killings, I will withdraw JTF, Jonathan to Borno elders
March 09, 2013

PRESIDENT Goodluck Jonathan yesterday in Maiduguri, accused Borno State Elders of playing to the gallary over the activities of Boko Haram Islamic sect insurgency in the state, describing the situation as unfortunate.

Jonathan spoke during an interactive session with Borno State stakeholders at the Multi-Purpose Hall, Government House Maiduguri, in continuation of his two- day working visit to Borno and Yobe States, the epicentres of Boko Haram.

He was responding to requests by the Elders for the Federal Government to grant amnesty to the sect members as well as withdraw the military Joint Task Force, JTF from Maiduguri and other areas in the state during the second day of his working visit to Borno State..

President Jonathan lamented that none of the elders in the state had publicly condemned the killings and bombings being carried out by the sect members and advised them to put their ‘’house in order,’’ by talking to their children who had been causing havoc in the country to drop their arms against the country.

I see David mark returning as Senate president.

Tinubu would rather have mark as senate president than saraki.


As it stands now, it is between mark and saraki. Tinubu decides who wins

kettykings:
I just did my analysis based on Tinubu's antecedents and historical records of how politicians play their politics, just understand that 2019 is around the corner and from the look of things the northern hawks in APC who know that buhari will not be interested in 2019 would have been updating their dossier on how to silence tinubu for life and keep him out of their way to the presidency.
While tinubu whose past records are not too good like kashamu will be warming up to plan his candidate for 2019.
The inevitable clash would be too catastrophic that one side would be Definitely silenced for life ,in this case tinubu will go because outside the south west he has no sympathies.

Onegai:
If i may also add, Nigerians are lazy. They truly don't want to know. Truly. They also have Responsibility. It is so much easier to blame someone else and they would rather take that route (that is why they are lazy). They equate working strenuously with doing the job right or the easiest way out as being "smart". Never wanting to take personal responsibility means turning God and religion into an insurance policy.

Which is why if you ask a lot of pregnant women in Nigeria, the number 1 book amongst them is something titled "Supernatural Birth", rather than links on the NHS website. Which is why you will see someone collapse on the road, people will gather and be praying furiously whilst someone pours cold water and no-one will think of leaning the person's head back, opening the mouth and breathing air into it (I know everyone has gone "n yama!!" wait till you need first aid... ). Which is why one of your neighbours will refuse to pay his share of a street guard's salary, telling you N5,000 is too much, then drives off in his car. Or someone will collect a bribe from you (or "gift" whilst insulting government. Sigh.

We all don't have to be intellectuals, just apply critical reasoning to a problem and think of the greater good. But I don't see that happening in Nigeria ever so...

Onegai:
Please why don't hospitals in Nigeria stock nitrale gloves and full hazmat suits? Even hand sanitizer on every floor should be mandatory. And what about safety injections (which reduces chances of infection of medical staff) What are the CMDS and boards doing? Why don't you guys fight them (it's an internal fight for your own personal safety).

It's either these service chiefs take the war to Boko Haram enclave now that their command headquarters has been moved to Maiduguri or resign. It's not business as usual. Parade has changed gear.
God bless the President.
