aloy who started eiye.

nonsemse

come back yorubaman

what do you mean, do not put the nuclear plant in the north, noway, put it in yorubaland to reduce thier.

who deleted it. why

If the protest is justified. they should have the right to protest. And the military is wrong that those who protested in Akure got life jail It is wrong. Their protest was justified.

What is democracy if they can not protest. which one do you prefer from the military, protest or coup?? they better encourage them to protest O, if not they would plan military coup.

who deleted my post, who.

you just made my day

So you are saying they relocate the ijaw in river state, where would they live, over here in new york some people live in cabinet. why dont they relocate the other place too. so that river would be free of ijaws and you people can just go.

are you still there

I think something is wrong with some people. I do not support it too. expect if they want to put it in the south. Walahi they should not put it in the north.

are you still online.

I think some people need to go do medical brain test now. What nonsense. Nigerian should say no to russia and no to nuclear power. who do they want to kill. OR else nigeria should be ready to remove even govt if Russia near the soil of nigeria.

yes something like that.

Russia's foreign debt grows 48% to $460 bln in 2007

16:4607/04/2008
MOSCOW, April 7 (RIA Novosti) - Russia's foreign debt calculated by international methodology increased 48% year-on-year in 2007 to $459.6 billion, the Central Bank said on Monday.
Russia's foreign debt grew in the reporting period largely due to private-sector borrowing, the Central Bank said.

The foreign debt of Russia's government declined from $44.7 billion as of January 1, 2007 to $37.4 billion as of January 1, 2008 while the foreign liabilities of Russia's monetary authorities increased from $3.9 billion to $9.0 billion, the Central Bank said.

State-controlled banks increased their foreign liabilities from $41.4 billion to $65.5 billion and other government sectors from $45.4 billion to $75.1 billion in 2007, the Central Bank said.

At the same time, the private sector's foreign debt bill climbed 55.7% to $272.6 billion.

how far have you people gone with this idea. I am ready to help you, i have a friend in the house of representative. Walahi, I pray to allah that it happen.  With would be to the glory of our great leader Balewa.

My problem is how can we remove the igbos from the new nigeria. Thosse people are trouble. I do not know how you people draw this maps thing but i

I like to read what you write all the time. You people should leave, we and the igbos would make nigeria great.

So how people in kano too have started to buy guns too. Good at least we can show them not only mend can fight.

even in new york too eiye is here. is eiye not all the south universities.

How are you sure this man is dead.

They stole all the money and nearly all had private jet. Is that leadership.

what happens to our homes, in this day and age

Which houses?

people of south-western cameroun

What is your source and the Yorubas can go and we replace them with western cameroon. shikena

ballboy for okocha.

Nigeria, 16 others may turn to nuclear power plants
From Emeka Anuforo, Abuja

NIGERIA and 16 other African countries may soon start power generation from nuclear plants, under a power base diversification programme being backed by the Austria-based International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

Already, IAEA has organised a regional training programme for personnel from countries participating in the project.

Some of the other countries involved in the project are Tunisia, Namibia, South Africa, Ghana, Ethiopia and Tanzania.

The countries decided on the project with the conviction that nuclear plants are more economical to run, while their availability and productivity have risen with less down-time for maintenance.

As a major step towards actualising this, the countries gathered in Abuja yesterday for a regional training course on self-assessment of national regulatory infrastructure for safety.

With the training course, African member-states will be able to peer-review radiation and nuclear safety in the region and by so doing, contribute to the overall global nuclear security

"The long-term stability of the cost of electricity generated by nuclear power is also an important attraction," the Minister of National Planning, Dr. Shamsudeen Usman, said at the meeting of the countries yesterday.

The training provides the opportunity to determine the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats to any organisation or system, under the project.

Speaking on the commitment of African countries to nuclear energy, Usman re-affirmed that energy is a fundamental input to economic activities, along with land, labour and capital.

"So, we need energy in all its forms, including nuclear. Nuclear power, of course, should not be viewed as the only answer. We need to invest right across the board so that we can obtain more energy from other low-carbon sources. But we have to be realistic about what these can offer.

"No renewable source yet has the capacity to generate the amount of power needed to run factories, steel mills, among others. As the world enters a global recession, cost is also an important factor. The new generation of nuclear reactors is cheaper than its predecessors and produces energy at a considerably lower cost than other low-carbon energy sources," he said.

He added: "Nuclear power, for example, can be as much as three times cheaper than wind and five times cheaper than solar power. It is also a known fact that nuclear power emits virtually no greenhouse gases. The complete nuclear power chain, including the mining of uranium, shipping fuel, constructing plants and managing waste, produces about the same amount of carbon dioxide as the full life-cycle emissions of wind and solar power.

"The attraction of nuclear energy is supported by the improved performance of the nuclear energy industry since the 1980s. The world has now accumulated more than 13,000 reactor-years of experience. Improvements in safety have been matched by improvements in efficiency."

In his remarks, IAEA representative, Mr. Daruisz Marchin, stressed that this regional training course therefore provides opportunity for assessing the level of radiation safety infrastructure not only in Nigeria, but also in the region as a whole.

Also speaking, the Director-General and Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Nuclear Regulatory Authority, Prof. Shamsudeen Elegba, was hopeful that knowledge gained from the course would be used to self-assess regulatory infrastructure in all the participating member-states and lead to the upgrading of regulatory infrastructure for radiation and nuclear safety in the region as a whole.

Elegba, who was recently elected the pioneer Chairman of the Forum of Nuclear Regulatory Bodies in Africa (FNRBA), stressed that "the continuation of the project by organising this training workshop is indeed a welcome development for the objectives of the project to be fully met."
