An eyewitness Ohaka Uche Ama-Ohaka reported the incident below:


SOS: THESE CORPS MEMBERS IN UMUAHIA, ABIA STATE ARE STRANDED!
I dont know where else to run to!
I just finished shouting about it on radio some minutes ago!
I personally drove down to the Corpers' Lodge of the Nigerian Christian Corpers Fellowship,Abia State.
They are SUBMERGED in flood now after the heavy rain last night!
Their food and foodstuffs are gone! Their clothes, books and certificates are messed up. Their foams and sleeping materials are gone! Their generator is floating on the flood! They are stranded, just standing outside.
I cry out from my heart to EVERYONE- Federal/State/Local Govts; NEMA, NGOs, Churches and groups, philantropists, good spirited individuals. Where are all Ex-Corps members and Jesus Corpers all over the world?
PLEASE LET'S COME TO THE RESCUE OF THESE HELPLESS YOUTHS WHOSE HOMES AND PARENTS ARE FAR FROM THEM!
Distance will not be a barrier. You can contact the Abia State President of the Nigerian Christian Corpers Fellowship(NCCF), Bro Jinum Johnson directly on 08100747573.
Friends in Umuahia, drive down and see for yourself and see what God may want you to do.
They need food(cooked and uncooked), they need foams, they need bedsheets, money, books, bibles, anything you too would have needed if you were in such condition(God forbid!).
If you send it to Vision Africa Radio or any other media house here in Umuahia, it will get to them.
FRIENDS, PLEASE DO ME THIS FAVOUR! I HAVE NEVER FELT THIS BAD FOR A LONG TIME IN MY LIFE!

The HSE professional is still developing in Nigeria. We may not have HSE integrated into the educational system fully as at present, but as the profession is broadening out from the industrial sector to other sectors, we are getting to a point where HSE will be practiced fully in every sector.

Some educational institutions have started employing HSE Personnel, am sure it will get better with time.

What we need is to continue creating the awareness.

Our collective ideas, creativity, passion and ingenuity is what the HSE profession needs.

Let us play a part.

Ok

Nice thread.

I just decided to pursue a career in HSE, a graduate of Microbiology, finished my service last year. I recently registered for HSE under one of these numerous training centers, but from the info I have read here, seems I am on the wrong path. I will definitely make amends.

Presently working as a Solar energy trainer and installer (I learnt it during my NYSC and it is paying my bills presently) have exposed me to various degrees of risks which also applies to every sector of labor and hence the importance of HSE.

In a bid to improve my knowledge on HSE, I am also taking a free online course on Alison.com. After one of my classes (TOPIC-WORK STATION ERGONOMICS) questions popped up in my head of which I will ask experienced HSE professionals in the house.

The questions goes thus:
*Do they practice health and safety in Nigerian schools especially secondary and primary schools?
*Are there opportunities for HSE professionals in the education (lecturing excluded) sector in Nigeria

Please your answers and contributions are paramount to me, as those questions have given birth to ideas that can carve out opportunities for me and improve me.

When I get contributions I will share the idea, because I will be needing your guidance in the course of it.

Thanks for creating this thread which is up to 9 years old.

I am HSE POSITIVE.

According to a post on Facebook, the man was caught with fresh body parts of an unidentified lady. The poster further warned that girls should be careful who they hang out with in the name of partying and having fun.

See pictures below:

The word 'Africa' often evokes romantic images of elephants crossing the Kalahari, thundering water at Victoria Falls, or panoramic views from Table Mountain.

But an increasingly common sight for Africans — especially those in Nigeria — is that of smog, rubbish and polluted water, according to a new report.

Four of the worst cities in the world for air pollution are in Nigeria, according to data released by the World Health Organization (WHO).

The other three cities named and shamed in the WHO report for high PM10 levels are the transport hub of Kaduna, in the north, which came fifth, followed by the cities of Aba — in sixth place — and Umuahia, in 16th position, which are both trade centers in southern Nigeria.

Although the report only included pollution levels from cities with a population of over 100,000 residents that monitor their pollution levels — something many African cities don’t do.

Last year, the World Bank reported that 94% of the population in Nigeria is exposed to air pollution levels that exceed WHO guidelines (compared to 72% on average in Sub-Saharan Africa in general) and air pollution damage costs about 1% post of Gross National Income.

The WHO study tracked the growth in the two different sizes of particulate matter, PM10 and PM2.5, per cubic meter of air.

PM2.5 particles are fine, with a diameter of 2.5 micrometers (µm) to more than 40 micrometers, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.

PM10 particles are less than or equal to 10 micrometers in diameter. Nigeria did not feature in the top 10 for PM2.5 levels.

Why is Nigeria so Polluted?

The cause of Nigeria’s pollution problem is a complex story.

“The contributing factors to pollution are a reliance on using solid fuels for cooking, burning waste and traffic pollution from very old cars,” Dr Maria Neira, WHO Director, Department of Public Health, Environmental and Social Determinants of Health, tells CNN.

At home, due to unreliable electricity supplies, many Nigerians rely on generators, which spew out noxious fumes often in unventilated areas.
On the street, car emissions go unregulated.

Neira adds: “In Africa, unfortunately, the levels of pollution are increasing because of rapid economic development and industry without the right technology.”

Indeed, Nigeria’s economy has raced forward in the past decade, overtaking South Africa as the continent’s largest economy in 2014, following a recalculation of its GDP.
Agriculture, telecoms and oil are all driving this growth — at a certain environmental cost.

Steps Towards a Solution

The latest WHO report may highlight Nigeria, but the true story in other parts of the African continent remains unknown.

The report only included pollution levels from cities with a population of over 100,000 residents that monitor their pollution levels — something many African cities don’t do.

“We need to do an assessment of the sources of pollution at city level, also work on better planning of urban collective transport systems, and take very old cars out of service,” says Neira.

“Regarding the four cities in Nigeria, we would actually like to praise them. They are at least monitoring the pollution levels, others are not even monitoring the air, we know that some are very polluted.

“These four cities are moving towards taking action to reduce pollution.”

With more than 50% of the African population predicted to live in cities by 2030, according to global accounting firm KPMG, the health of the continent’s urban areas is a key concern.

U Don graduate abi u still be student?

There was tension on Monday at the Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike, Abia State, as the institution’s management terminated the appointment of over 400 academic and non-academic staff employed by the erstwhile Vice Chancellor, Prof. Hilary Edeoga.

Sources said that the affected workers were being owed six months’ salary, and the remaining 25 per cent of their entitlements.

But the workers said they had resolved to take the matter up with civil society organisations including the Nigeria Labour Congress and the Trade Union Congress of Nigeria, adding that they had lost confidence in the Academic Staff Union of Universities.

The decision to sack the workers was said to have been taken at a recent meeting of the governing council of the MOUAU.

Some of those affected by the purge said they were shocked to receive the letters terminating their appointment because they attended the regularisation interview conducted in 2016 by the former VC.

According to them, they did not collect their letters of regularisation before Edeoga was sacked by the Muhammadu Buhari administration.

One of the workers, Chidi Nwankwo, said that immediately Prof. Francis Otunta assumed office as VC, he allegedly declared the regularisation interview inconclusive and mandated all affected staff to reapply with good reasons why their appointments should be renewed.

He said, “We all reapplied, although we were apprehensive that the new VC wanted to sack most of us and replace us with his kinsmen and friends based on previous experiences.

“We were not surprised when news broke out that the Governing Council of the university decided to sack all of us. We had been complaining about it right from the day he declared the regularisation interview inconclusive.

“Some of us were offered temporary appointments, while others were head-hunted to join the university from other universities. Majority of us were interviewed after sometime, which is a standard civil service rule, in a bid to regularise our appointments.”

According to Nwankwo, the former VC did not have time to sign the letters of regularisation or authorise the registrar to do same before activities marking his pulling out commenced.

But, in separate interviews, a member of the governing council of MOUAU, Prof. Ike Nwachukwu, and the ASUU chairman, Prof. Chinyere Echendu, told our correspondent that the decision was final.

“It is a management decision and so it’s the VC or Public Relations Officer of the university that can respond to your enquiries. I don’t have any authority to do that. I am not denying the fact that I was at the meeting. But, after the meeting, there are statutory people who respond to such issues,” Nwachukwu said.

Echendu said, “They should be up to 400 of them that are affected. But no worker was sacked. Anybody who told you that is not telling the truth. The group you are talking about are people who were given letters on temporary basis. And that automatically terminated after one year.”

Also, a former ASUU chairman in MOUAU, Prof. U.A.U. Onyebinama, said there was no provision for renewal in their condition of service.

He said, “It is not easy to sack a worker. The problem we have is that there were people who were on temporary appointment, which, just on its own, automatically elapsed. So, it is not about the university sacking anybody.”

Eye witness account

According to PUO report, this man striped naked was allegedly accused of being behind the disappearance of another man's penis.

We gathered that the naked man had begged a man for alms and touched him before his penis disappeared.

Policemen intervened.
