OAM4J:Edo Politics: Oba shuns Airhiavbere as President visits
The Oba of Benin, Om n’Oba Erediauwa, yesterday shunned the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) delegation which paid a courtesy visit to him in his palace.
The Oba who normally receives visitors to his palace personally yesterday asked the Iyase of Benin, Chief Sam Igbe to receive the delegation on his behalf while he stayed in his inner chambers.
In his prayers, the Iyase said “our son, the president came on a courtesy visit and after his visit, he should have a safe journey home.”
The President was thereafter asked to proceed alone to the inner chambers to see the Oba while others, including the PDP Candidate, Maj-Gen Charles Aihiavbere (rtd), were asked to vacate the palace hall.
It will be recalled that the Oba had at various times thrown his weight behind the candidature of Governor Adams Oshiomhole who was declared as the Benin candidate by the palace.
The Esogban of Benin, Chief David Edebiri while speaking on behalf of the Oba during a visit of Governor Oshiomhole to the palace, with the Oba in attendance had said: “Adams Oshiomhole is the Benin candidate. He is the one who wants Benin City to join other modern cities in the country, so he is our candidate. Some people said the palace is playing politics. What is politics? The Oba himself is an embodiment of politics.
“If you have a house and you are old and your children did not come to paint the house and somebody from outside came and painted it and decorate it for you. Will you leave that person? Once again, we are voting for Adams Oshiomhole.
“As the Odionwere of Bini Kingdom, and I am speaking on behalf of the Oba, you are going to win. The Oracle has spoken. Anyone who disputes it or fights against the oracle, then let him fight on, we will wait and see the result.”

I didnt see a Pastor being interviewed.... Why were those ones veiling....a spade is not a shovel. That man called Okotie is on his own...a disgrace to christendom. And dont tell me I shouldnt judge,,,,what the f,,k is wrong with him....going for the third wife?...tot he was gonna reconcile with the first. And some wldnt stop going to that church....anointing flows o...either +ve or -ve.....be warned!
SimonAndal: Nuclear fusion takes 4 H atoms and combines them to make 1 He atom. In the process, only 0.7% of the initial mass is converted into energy in accordance with e=mc^2. Fusion doesn't convert all mass to energy, only a small fraction. This site mentions the 0.7%: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_fusion
From Answer 1, the masses involved in a single reaction are: initial: 4 x 1.673x10^(-27)kg = 6.692x10^(-27)kg final: 1 x 6.645x10^(-27)kg mass lost (converted): 6.692x10^(-27)kg - 6.645x10^ (-27)kg = 0.047x10^(-27)kg percent lost: 0.047 / 6.692 x 100% = 0.702% The above site also calculates the energy released from one reaction as: 4.3 x 10^(-12)J/reaction Let's calculate: Assume the water consists of pure H2O. Assume further that it will be it will be separated into H & O. Ignore the energy involved in this separation (it's minor). Assume all of the H (hydrogen) will be used in the fusion process.
How full is your glass of water? Assume 8 fluid oz. There are about 29.57g/oz of water. Mass of water in glass = 8 oz x 29.57g/oz = 76.56g Number of water (H2O) molecules in the glass: 76.56g / (18.051g/mol) x 6.0221415×10^23 molecules/ mol = 2.544x10^24 molecules H2O.Each molecule of water (H2O) has 2 hydrogen atoms. Number of hydrogen atoms in the water: = 2.544x10^24 x 2 = 5.108x10^24molecules H Four hydrogen atoms are used in each reaction. Number of reactions possible: 5.108x10^24molecules /4molecules/reaction = 1.277x10^24 reactions Energy released: E = 1.277x10^24reactions x 4.3x10^(-12)J/reaction= 5.491x10^12 J There are 3600000J per kWh. Energy released in terms of kWh: E = 5.491x10^12J / (3.6x10^6J/ kWh) = 1.524x10^6 kWh Rounding the results, and converting to MWh and TWh: E = 1500000kWh = 1500MWh = 1.5TWh The 8 oz glass of water has about 1.5 Terra-Watthours (TWh) potential fusion energy.
To put this in perspective, the entire USA used about 4000 TWh in year 2010. That glass of water would power: 1.524/4000 x 100% = 0.04% of the USA's need for 1 year. Or viewed another way, the number of glasses of water that it would take to power the USA for one year is: 4000/1.524 = 2600 glasses (rounded)
There are over 2600 cities in the USA, so on the average, a glass of water would power more than 1 city. Note that there are extreme difficulties containing a fusion reaction. It is not technically feasible yet, but scientists are working on that problem.
dani1luv: [size=13pt]Nigeria may be a country in crisis right now, but her citizens are making her proud--especially those in the Diaspora. Two days back we celebrated the achievement of 22 year old Emmanuel Ohuabunwa, news just filtered in that 21 year old Chibundu Onuzo has just been named UK’s Number 1 best black student.
The award was given by Rare Rising Stars. With this award, she is the first woman to top the list.
The 21 year old who got her first book deal at age 19, while still an undergraduate student at King’s College London, (she signed a two novel deal with U.K. publishing heavy weight, Faber & Faber), was also profiled by CNN when Nigeria marked her 50th independence anniversary.
Her latest book “The Spider King’s Daughter has already started garnering critical acclaim. It has been nominated for the £10,000 more and watch a brief video of her after the jump
Desmond Elliott Prize for debut novelists alongside a Booker prize-nominated Oxford professor.
Rare Rising Star awarded her. On her level, she is the best black (not over-all) among the RISING STARS! We definitely have d over-all NO 1. Wishing her all the best in life. This is just a stepping stone to greater things ahead. Thanks for making us proud! No mind d bad belles!
I have been wondering whats gonna happen if the giver of life decides to take Ivy's! Pls, no offence, Im not wishing them that though....this HYPE is becoming too much and ......
anonymous6: Kanye West will never get more views then prince William and kate's wedding, the viewers were not only from America but all around the world, every walk of life watched William and Kate. However with Kanye west & kim Kardashian, some people not only in the US but around the world have no respect for people like that; the death of a American president, the pope and etc will definately without a doubt have a viewer ship like William and kate's wedding and even top it but Kanye and Kim, give me a break lol. The viewers won't be more then how it was with Kris humphries and Kim. Kim better stay with her plan of just having it private not public as far as I am concerned.
True talk.....''.......the death of a American president, the pope and etc will definately.........''
rezzy: supported!!! Spice ur beef or fish very well and allow d tomatoes to dry very well, whether u use grinding stone or not, ur stew will be tasty. Poverty been make me think grinding stone is better, but now i knw better
And grinding stone wouldnt need ''Spice ur beef or fish very well and allow d tomatoes to dry very well.......''
gboss4sure: Lol, no provoke urself oooo. Me like money and I dey hustle dey get am but una dey talk say na we love am pass and fit kill for it as if odas no like am
Left for me, I cant live in an environment where Ibo man no dey!
slimyem: I really need this information right now. Apart from Catholic homes where the poor live,i dont know of any other thing close. I have a great-grandmother who is over a hundred years old staying with my family. She cant walk,pees and poos on herself though she uses adult diapers most of the time. She only eats and sleep and never know what time of the day it is. Caring for her has been extremely hellish! We've employed people to clean her and take care of her but they usually end up running off! Sometimes,we have to lock her up at home when everyone has a place to be. If we had the option of a home where we can pay for her care,it'd be great relief for everyone including herself! Any info will on that will be appreciated!
Fiveseventy: While you may argue that African religions should be more recognised, you should also realise the negativities of their traditions (barbaric practices).
Someone said we shld overlook that, and concentrate on the good side....I think shymmex, the oracle of Ifa. Im getting somethings him! What about that other religion with a profound negativity, should we overlook?
Revolva: That's perfect truth they washed us saying we will go to heaven if we obey jesus and go to hell if we disobey well words from malcolm x - your heaven or hell is here on earth its just a state of mind -now check this every whiteman lives comfortable either in the westernworld even over here they are seen as first class people that's is to tell you that's their heaven and we blacks around the world are in hell we live a third class life style
The truth is the white people destroyed our history right from the days of the timbuktu and it pains me that we africans don't wanna come back to our own senses and leave the whiteman brainwashing system ,how can we manufacture a spoon when all we do is pray in church monday to sunday and some folks pray 5times daily , look at india and china and japan where they still maintain their indiginous religion they are improving economically
Every religion brainwashes, its just the one u fall for! No go there at all!
AjanleKoko: I guess he means, you can opt out. For me, I don't see any difference between the way Africans adopted Christianity or Islam, or the way Asians did. Some people did it due to colonization, others used it to get trading leverage.
In any case, Africa's problem has little or nothing to do with religion, no matter how people make it seem that way.
It does o, unless if u r gonna define the ''Africa's problem'' These killings alone!
nikkyshyne: It was just recently I observed the difference between using a blender and a grinding machine. A friend came visiting and she knew I used the blender for the stew. She told me the grinding machine is better as it ensures all ingredients are well blended/grinded. Hence tasting better.
C'mon, hw can grinding stone taste better. Don't knw why some people believe local methods of cooking is the best. Just like how some people said firewood gives a better taste.
