Since when did gender determination depend on women. It depends wholly on men due to the fact that only men can produce Y chromosome which gives rise to a male.
The research is nothing but fake by bunch of morons.

The groundnut pyramids of Kano were a sight to behold and told a wonderful story of agricultural sufficiency and of a fruitful nation. It revealed a country that knew the way to sustainable development, through agriculture, self sustainability and hard work.

Over the years Nigeria has gone away from farming as we started to over rely on oil, a resource with a finite life shelf. The land of Nigeria is blessed, sow a seed and it will surely grow. We have the potential to be the food basket of all of Africa. When we produce our own food as we used to do in the past to a larger degree than we do today we can rest assured that no matter the global economic outlook, inflation would always be under control because we would have more than enough internally generated food to feed the population. As our imports grew and grew so did inflation.

It is appropriate to look back and remember the things that made us great back then and agriculture was certainly one of them. As the picture shows, the groundnut industry alone provided employment of many youths, youths today are easily enticed into militancy because of the lack of jobs yet we have resources to create thousands of jobs off the God given fertile land we sit on.

They were viewed as both a tourist attraction and a symbol of wealth. In the 1960s and 70s, as production in Nigeria shifted from agriculture to oil, the groundnut pyramids disappeared.

I am reflecting on the Groundnut Pyramids of Kano and I’m wondering; would we be able to recreate something like this again?

In 1995, Peter Davies was on holiday in Nigeria after graduating from Louisiana State University .

On a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air. The elephant seemed distressed, so Peter approached it very carefully. He got down on one knee, inspected the elephants foot, and found a large piece of wood deeply embedded in it. As carefully and as gently as he could, Peter worked the wood out with his knife, after which the elephant gingerly put down its foot.

The elephant turned to face the man and with a rather curious look on its face, stared at him for several tense moments. Peter stood frozen, thinking of nothing else but being trampled. Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned and walked away. Peter never forgot that elephant or the events of that day.

Twenty years later, Peter was walking through the University of Ibadan Zoo with his teenaged son. As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned and walked over to near where Peter and his son Cameron were standing. The large bull elephant stared at Peter, lifted its front foot off the ground, then put it down. The elephant did that several times then trumpeted loudly, all the while staring at the man.

Remembering the encounter in 1995, Peter could not help wondering if this was the same elephant. Peter summoned up his courage, climbed over the railing and made his way into the enclosure. He walked right up to the elephant and stared back in wonder. The elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its trunk around one of Peter legs and slammed him against the railing, killing him instantly.

Probably wasn't the same _fucking elephant.


This is for everyone who sends me those heart-warming bullsh1t stories. _Fuck you all!

Which fact and figures did madam world bank reply? The same woman that does not know how much subsidy she paid oil marketers and how much she owed them. The same woman that has no clue on how much oil revenue Nigeria earns and how much of it was remitted into the federation account. The same woman that has no idea of how much waivers she granted people and companies, thereby defrauding Nigerians of billions of dollars.

Oshiomole is asking simple questions;

How much revenue was acrued into the federation for the time in question? There are so many components of revenue accruable to the Federal Republic of Nigeria. These are;
1. Oil revenue from NNPC
2. Gas Revenue from NLNG
3. Tax revenues including VAT, and various taxes.
4. Import duty taxes and duties from customs.
5. Other revenues generated from other agencies like immigration, maritime, ports, NCC and lots more.

Once again what was the Total revenue earned by all agencies under her supervision as Finance Minister and coodinating Minister of the economy?

She is only fixated on money shared from the Excess Crude Account without providing the facts and figures on total oil revenue accrued into the federation account.

An Abia State-based constitutional lawyer and human rights activist, Dr. Anthony Agbazuere, has warned the leadership of the ruling All Progressive Congress to treat with caution, the leadership crisis rocking the National Assembly, saying it can consume both APC and President Muhammadu Buhari if not carefully handled.

Agbazuere, who gave the warning Wednesday at a press conference in Umuahia, advised APC hierarchy to “swallow their pride and accept Senator Olusola Saraki and Hon. Yakubu Dogora as Senate President, and Speaker of the House of Representatives respectively in the interest of the party and to move Nigeria forward.”

He said any attempt by APC to plot the impeachment of Saraki and Dogara “will not only fail but destroy APC.”

Agbazuere further said APC must stop threatening Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, saying his emergence “is a bitter pill which the APC must swallow to survive.”

His said, “APC must not forget that the same structure which brought Saraki also brought Ekweremadu on board, and the Senators in this alliance are greater in number.

“An attempt to threaten them may even lead to the impeachment of either President Buhari or both Buhari and his Vice, Professor Yemi Osibanjo. The implications are obvious.”

Agbazuere warned APC to stop all forms of interference in the affairs of the National Assembly to avoid rocking its boat.

Fielding questions on the controversy over the actual number of months Abia workers were owed under the immediate – past administration of ex- Governor Theodore Orji, where he served as Commissioner for Information, Agbazuere said “staff of all Ministries in the state long received their April salary before Orji bowed out.”

He debunked media reports that the state owed workers up to nine months salaries, describing such reports as “mischievous, misleading and intended by the peddlers to tarnish the image of both the past and present administration in the state.”
