On coming to power in 2003, Governor Bukola Saraki saw the economic and social benefits that Ilorin in particular and Kwara State in general can derive from a fully functioning Ilorin airport. He thereafter decided to use some of the resources of the state to develop the airport to international standards and attract airlines to use it, thereby turning it from a wasting asset to a productive one.
Passenger terminal
The first facelift of the airport was the building of a passenger terminal. Our airport now has a modern passenger terminal. The importance of this cannot be over emphasised. Various devices required for a safe operation in an airport such as screening machines for passengers and their luggage were provided in the building. This has made it possible for domestic and international flights to operate from the airport. Two domestic airlines now operate flights to and from the airport. Between them, they have 10 daily departures and arrivals at the airport conveying passengers between Ilorin and Lagos as well as between Ilorin and Abuja. As time goes on, the frequency of flights would increase significantly and make travelling to Ilorin from other parts of the country easier.
Cargo terminal
Input and export of goods via an airport is facilitated by the availability of a cargo terminal. A huge amount of goods comes into Nigeria, mostly through the Murtala Mohammed International Airport. While a good part of such goods are destined for Lagos and its environs, substantial proportion goes to other parts of the country. An inland cargo terminal located in Ilorin would provide a cheaper opportunity for shippers.
The government is constructing an international cargo terminal at the Ilorin airport. Apart from making importation easier as mentioned earlier, it would create tremendous opportunity for export of goods. This is an important point that I want to expatiate.
The state government has taken the modernisation and enlargement of agriculture as an important element in its development programme. To this end, it invited Zimbabwe farmers who were driven out of that country to come and settle in Kwara and use their expertise to revolutionise our agriculture. This has worked wonders as everyone who has visited them at Tsonga have reported.
Before the crackdown by the Mugabe government, Zimbabwe was a major producer and exporter of flowers. Various types of flowers were grown on a large scale and exported nightly by airfreight to Europe. This trade was worth over $100M annually. All that has now stop.
Kwara state has another opportunity here for white Zimbabwean farmers to come and be producing flowers for export. This would be possible with the cargo terminal facilities at the airport. The economy of Kwara would be significantly boosted by a foreign exchange earning of $100M. Without the airport, this would not be possible.
Funding Support
Airline operators and the oil industry would be the beneficiaries of the programmes we are setting up at the College. We therefore plan to aggressively canvass them to get various types of student sponsorships and grants to IAC. Each one of the domestic airlines would be encouraged to sponsor 2 pilots and I engineer for ab initio training every year. This would be in addition to participation in the cadet programme.
All State governments and especially the northern states would be encouraged to sponsor at least 3 pilots, 2 engineers and 1 controller on a yearly basis.
Benefits and Opportunities for the Community
The establishment of the International Aviation College, Ilorin would bring a lot of benefits and opportunities for the host community and the country in general. Employment opportunities would be created during the construction stage and beyond. The state will be come a destination for people coming from different parts of Africa for training. But of far more importance is the opportunity for our young people to take advantage of the location of the college. We must encourage them to become interested in the profession.

Behold, I Come Quickly


The new preacher had just begun his sermon. He was a little nervous, and about ten minutes into the sermon his mind went blank. After a brief second of complete panic, he remembered what they had taught him in seminary about situations like this: repeat the last point. His teacher assured him this would help him remember what was supposed to come next. So he gave it a try.

"Behold, I come quickly," he said. Still his mind was blank. He tried again. "Behold, I come quickly." Still nothing.

He tried one more time -- speaking and gesturing with such force that he fell forward, knocking the pulpit to one side, tripping over the flower pot, and falling into the lap of a little old lady in the front row.

The young preacher apologized profusely.

"That is all right, young man," said the little old lady. "It was my fault. I should have gotten out of the way. You told me three times you were coming

One night at the dinner table, the wife commented, "When we were first married, you took the small piece of steak and gave me the larger.

Now you take the large one and leave me the smaller; You don't love me any more, "

"Nonsense, darling," replied the husband, "you just cook better now."

no hard feelings

George Bush goes to a primary school to talk about the war. After his talk
he offers question time. One little boy puts up his hand and George asks
him what his name is. "Bob".

"And what is your question, Bob?"
"I have 3 questions. First, why did the USA invade Iraq without the
support
of the UN? Second, why are you President when Al Gore got more votes? And
third, what happened to Osama Bin Laden?

Just then the bell rings for recess. George Bush informs the kiddies that
they will continue after recess.
When they resume George says, "OK, where were we? Oh that's right ---
question time. Who has a question?"
A different little boy puts up his hand. George points him out and asks
him
what his name is.
"Steve"
"And what is your question, Steve?"
"I have 5 questions. First, why did the USA invade Iraq without the
support
of the UN? Second, why are you President when Al Gore got more votes?
Third, what happened to Osama Bin Laden?
Fourth, why did the recess bell
go
20 minutes early?
And fifth, where is Bob?"

EDUCATION, they say is the best legacy. But this philosophy can only be described and accepted by those who know what education means to humanity and nation building. But Governor Bukola Saraki has since inception as Governor of Kwara State, noted the values and importance of education hence many Arsenals to make sure the system brings forth desirable results by embarking on series of steps to get rid of the rots associated with it.

Kwara from creation in 1967 can only boast of human resource education while many other states enjoyed many natural resources that keep their purses bulging via the Federal Allocation.

This I much believed prompted the actions of Governor Saraki to make sure the best is achieved in the education sector in the State. During his first term of office, an education summit was organized in which all stakeholders in the sector was invited. Ever since then, the face of education in the state changed. All secondary and primary schools teachers sit tight. Even the State owned tertiary institutions are not left out.


Governor Saraki since inception in 2003, has seen that many secondary and primary schools buildings which have been left over the years dilapidated was absolutely renovated. New blocks of classrooms were built. Till this moment renovations and building of new classrooms have not ceased. Books were distributed to schools in the State.

However, Governor Saraki in his quest for quality and quantitative education for every child in the State is not satisfied with renovation and building of classrooms and distribution of books. For this reason, he declared a total war on the sector by bringing up a very formidable REFORM AGENDA in the Sector. Because he much believe all the renovation and erection of new classrooms is far from achieving a desirable goals.

The teachers who inculcate sound teachings into pupils and students ought to be total overhaul for efficiency, hence the screening through TESTs, Training and Re-training of them. What occasioned this, is a primary school teacher who has been in the profession for many years failed a simple Arithmetic Test of primary 4!

This now called for the proper training and re-training of Teachers in the State. This training and re-training will go round Teachers in the State. Those who still can not walk the trend will have to give way. As the Governor has promised no teacher will be aid off. Not only the practicing Teachers, the state owned Colleges of Education where these Teachers graduated to the labour market will be looked into. That the products out of them will be of good quality and not just push-through graduates. That is, the quality of candidates for admission into colleges of education in the State will be properly monitored.

Ever since the administration of Governor Bukola started its Reform Agenda in education sector, tremendous results have been achieved. The students have stopped roaming the streets, Teachers no longer come to school late and their many petty trades in classes stopped. The corrupt principals and headmasters shown the way out. Students of unruly behaviour sent on suspension. All these strict actions have put both Teachers and Students on their toes.

Governor Saraki, not satisfied with the face of education changing alone in Kwara State. He it a national issue. With the drive for good education where the rots in the system will be expunged, he took the bold step writing President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua on the need to find lasting solution to the education sector in the whole country. He believes the solution to these rots does not only lie in renovation and building of classrooms with millions of Naira.

This I believe he will achieve. Because he is the Chairman of the Governors’ Forum. The position he has been for two tenure.

Cultism which was a very strong menace in institutions of higher learning in the state has been stamped out in totality under Governor Saraki’s administration. Also, in his quest for solid and non-stagnant education system, Dr Bukola Saraki who is been the chairman of Governors’ Forum caused the negotiation that eventually brought an end to the nationwide Teachers’ strike that almost crippled the sector.

Currently in the pipeline, is the establishment of SCIENCE VILLAGE where school children can be expose to the evolving trends in the world of science. This was made known through Governor Saraki’s commissioner for education, science and technology,Mr Bolaji Abdullahi.

Mr. Abdullahi said, Governor Saraki brought the idea after one of his numerous trips to UK, where he saw a Science Village for school children. Coming home he saw the need for such in Kwara State. Any moment from now, experts from the UK will come for feasibility study. No wonder, during the launch of KWARA EDUCATIONCHARTER, Governor Saraki stated, “We have got to build an education system that delivers real results and inspires the confidence of parents and community”.

These feats can never be achieved without Governor Saraki trailing the path of one time United States of America President, Mr. Roosevelt who during his time as president of the US, brought on the best BRAINS to his administration. This, the Americans will never forget the tremendous changes witnessed under his administration. Mr. Bolaji Abdullahi is one of the BRAINS behind the soaring success of the Education Reform Agenda in Kwara State. Because he shared the dream of Governor Saraki to transform the education landscape of Kwara State. This he has been pursuing jealously. Therefore, Governor Saraki has a vision for a verile education system because in Kwara we have no OIL DEPOSIT. But HUMAN RESOURCES are in abundance. The reason his government is committed to improved Teacher quality; Better School Inspection, greater accountability and stronger institutions.

As the late Dennis Osadebe said, in one of his poem, WHO WOULD BUY MY THOUGHT…. The States in Nigeria and the Federal Government need buy the thoughts of Governor Saraki on improving the education sector. Because good and quality education system is the only thing that can bring opportunities to learn and for new opportunities to blossom into active citizens who will be able to make real contributions to our society and our economy.

Above all, let our leaders start thinking the Governor Saraki’s way, that, EVERY CHILD COUNTS

one guy is browsing, then his friend came.

friend: plz my guy, make i check this flash
owner of the system: okay now
friend: inserted flash

the next thin we will see his the kaspersky anti virus shouting kiiiiii kiiiiiiiiiiii kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii kiiiiiiiiiiiiii non stop kiiiiiiiiiii kiiiiiiiiiii kiiiiiiiii

which kind virus come plenty inside ur flash like this, i no even no, this is a deases of the system ooooooo, its just like HIV
owner of the system: if no be say my system use condon him for don contact HIV

na me be the husband, but na only u i no they hear

well,

i no the answer to ur question.

thank God, u even no u re ignorant.

but i have to tell u that u have no excuss to be ignorant. because u where told.

the greatest deases is ignorance. and in this case, since u were told, u re no longer in the state of ignorance, but u re sinking to the act of sin.
disbelieving in the almighty is an act of sin.

so am not here to share insult with u, but rather just to enlighten u on ur unknown.

cheers

this is the clearance u needed.

Take, for instance, the case of the Bible. On the one hand, the Bible presents the concept of monotheism, when it says: "Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord". (Deutronomy, 6:4)


On the other hand, the same Bible says: "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost" (Mathew, 28:19) - an injunction which clearly implies the existence of what the Christians call the Trinity.

Such inconsistencies surely make these beliefs untenable. When God is One, He cannot be Three. And if he is Three, then He cannot be One.

Similarly, at one place in the New Testament, Jesus Christ is Called the son of God(Mark 1:1) while at another place, he is called the son of David (Matthew 1:1). The Bible abounds in such contradictions. As we see it, this problem of contradictions has occurred because of human additions to the word of God. For modern man, such additions have rendered the Bible incomprehensible, and, in consequence, unacceptable.

u can get the answer to ur question from the thread.

yea u are right,

u re laghing at ur ignorance

she no no say na like that the thing go dey painful now.
