Recently, the Securities and Exchange Commission put out a warning against people putting their money in certain businesses claiming to trade Forex.

MBA Forex was on that list.

Some of the forex companies on that list have started collapsing and the founders running with investors funds.

MBA is still paying investors.

The fact that MBA is paying doesn't mean they are making profit. It simply means new people are putting money.

I won't tell anyone how to invest or spend his or her money because that is not my business.

Listen to your heart deep down, not what everyone is saying. What it is telling you cannot be wrong. If you gain, you eat it alone. If you lose, you cry alone. Don't let anyone make you take a wrong step.

Profit and loss is part of business, MBA is not exempted and you are not exempted.

Only the wise would understand.

Mention those forex companies listed that have collapsed.

Typical abokki is usu wicked and heartless.
This dishonorable was brought to FMC Keffi in d evening of Wednesday last week.
Came with an offduty nurse from the center who wanted to stampede the casualty officer(emergency room doctor) into admitting him straight to the VIP ward cos according to him,d patient was a known diabetic whose blood sugar went up.
Luckily, immediately d doctor heard 'honorable', his antenna went up.He insisted that he'll take at least a brief history and insisted the patient puts on a facemask and be brought into d outer part of the emergency as against what d nurse was saying(he wanted honorable to be seen in d car and transferred sharp sharp to the VIP ward)
Doctor asked for hx including of fever and cough,they denied that of cough but agreed he had fever b4 and was treated at home.The vital signs he was given by d same nurse that brought d patient said temperature was within normal range(possible error from the infrared thermometer).
While this was going on,d patient started coughing. The doctor rechecked d temperature with a simpler thermometer,lo and behold it indicated the man had fever.Of course, they never mentioned the fact that he had been to several hospitals.
He made a decision to transfer d patient to an isolation room(on govt paper FMC Keffi is an isolation center but it's just a small cubicle inside d A&E).
Meanwhile,d nurse was mounting pressure that d patient be transferred to VIP(where definitely he would've infected many other ppl esp staff) and even involved other member of d staff of FMC to pressurize d doctor but the doctor stood his ground and insisted d patient can only go to d isolation cubicle.
Unfortunately,d patient died d following morning,by Saturday, his sample that was collected came out positive.

Are you working with FMC Keffi?

In 1720, a ship was quarantined at the port in Marseille because a strange infection was killing people on the ship.

Deputy Mayor of Marseille lifted the quarantine to “help economy”.

100,000 people died.
More than half of Marseille died.
This was the Great Plague of Marseille.

The govt of Marseille felt they could not afford to lose all the valuable goods on the ship as it will destroy the economy.

As they lifted the quarantine and moved the goods into the city of Marseille, they moved in the infection.

More than half of Marseille citizens died.

Marseille is a major port city in the south of France. Just as Lagos in the south of Nigeria.

By the end of the Great Plague of Marseille, the city of Marseille had 50,000 dead people (out of a total 90,000 population back then).

That is like 10million people dying in Lagos.

The ship left Sidon in Lebanon, picked up people at Tripoli, and Cyprus which already had infection outbreak.

A Turkish man on the ship got infected first and died, then several sailors died. The ship’s surgeon also died.

As the ship got to Marseille,
Doctors quarantined it.

Now because Marseille had a very huge trading arrangement with “Levant” (a term for countries like Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Cyprus, Turkey, Israel, Jordan, and Palestine); the govt was convinced by businessmen that the quarantine on the ship has to be removed and the goods released.

Some powerful businessmen led by the deputy mayor of Marseille (who was also the owner of the ship) convinced his friends in government to release the quarantine. Some merchants needed the cotton and silk cargo on the ship to do business for the upcoming festival in Beaucaire.

It was only a matter of days later.
The infection broke out in the whole of Marseille.

People started dropping dead.
They died so much there was no longer graves to bury them.

Dead bodies littered the streets of Marseille. Till date, the people of Marseille remember this story.

Apparently what happened was:
The govt tried to be clever.

They told themselves “we will only move the silk and cotton on the ship into the city but not the infected people on the ship”.

Lol. In moving the goods, they unknowingly moved infected rats which then infected people.

As people got infected, they infected one another. At a point, the govt of France built a wall to stop Marseille from infecting the rest of the country.

But it was late.

10,000 people from Marseille already ran into neighbouring cities. 50,000 people died outside of Marseille.

The Great Plague of Marseille lasted about 3 years. Those were horrible years in Marseille and in France.

Hospitals got overwhelmed.
Residents fleeing their homes.
Dead bodies lying and decaying on the streets.

As the infection then spread,
Nobody cared anymore about “economy”.

I hope you learnt something.

The Great Plague of Marseille is a huge warning to governments never to prioritise the “economy” ahead of human lives and public health. It can be a very costly mistake.

We can always rebuild the economy.
But we can never revive the dead.

Sammy07:
On the Eligibility Criteria (EC), the minister said that States had to meet in order to be eligible to receive any grants included: the online publication of the approved annual budget and audited financial statement for the previous year.

The 24 states were said to have achieved: improved financial reporting and budget reliability; increased openness and citizens’ engagement in the budget process; improved cash management and reduced revenue leakages through the implementation of State Treasury Single Account (TSA); strengthened Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) collection; biometric registration and Bank Verification Number (BVN) used to reduce payroll fraud.

The 24 beneficiary states who were: Abia, Adamawa, Bauchi, Benue, Delta, Edo, Ekiti, Enugu, Gombe, Jigawa, Kaduna, Kano, Katsina, Kebbi, Kogi, Kwara, Niger, Ondo, Ogun, Oyo, Osun, Sokoto, Taraba and Yobe states.


What's happening to SE and SS now...
They didn't met the criteria

Even Lagos isn't there.

Late General Abba Kyari has missed this money

The problems going on in Kano can be summarised into two.
1) Case detection failure.
2) Case management failure.
All of the failures above may not be unconnected to the collapse of the committees of the state task force and that of NCDC. The virus hit hard these two most important pillars in the control of the pandemic. Is like the case of HIV that target and attact the immune system causing systemic collapse and devastating effects until effective drug was obtained.
The current case in Kano is that people are sick and can not know their status due to collapse of testing center(as some of the staff tested positive) and could not have the right care/management as the state Covid committee also collapsed (some key members tested positive).

When the commanders are wounded at the battle field to the extent of affecting their capability in leading the war, we just need to quickly appoint new commanders and move on. If this is not done the enemies may cause further serious damage.
Thus from the above description, the solutions to this problem is for the NCDC and FMoH (commanders in chief) to promptly and massively support Kano by restoring safe and efficient testing centre as well as injecting active and experienced members that may even takeover the state task force leadership until the normalcy is restored. This, if the FG wishes can be actualized within a week in shaa Allah.
May Allah grant quick recovery for those affected and continue to protect all of us ameen summa ameen.

"The use of “win win phrase” was basically an attempt to explain the Islamic Promise on the people that died as a result of any kind of pandemic. The late Mallam Abba Kyari was privileged to die as a result of COVID-19, making him among the beneficiaries in Islam. He is conferred with the automatic privilege of martyrdom."

So Muslim religion should be exposing themselves to Corona virus because it is Islamic Promise for automatic martyrdom.

WHO WILL CRY WHEN YOU DIE? LIFE LESSONS FROM MALLAM ABBA KYARI DEATH.
When I was growing up, my father said something to me I will never forget,
"Son, when you were born , you cried while the world rejoiced, Live your life in such a way that when you die the world cries while you rejoice."
Undoubtedly, Abba Kyari was the most powerful Chief of Staff ever in our democratic governance (except perhaps in military era when Al-Mustapha wielded the same power). The man had gone back to his maker and in his wake the Nigerian polity is heated in discussing his life and death, through eulogies and condemnations. Death will always be mourned by friends and celebrated by enemies. But the most important thing is it should serve the living as a great lesson to try and be a better human being. The first statement is a direct translation of human nature imbibed into our culture while the second statement is a neglected moral compass we chose to be oblivious of. In the heat of Battle of Uhud, the cries ricochet that Muhammad is dead, this sent the Muslim army into confusion and disarray while the Quraish were euphoric in celebration. As Mary watched in horror her beloved son being crucified, the Jews celebrated victory in the synagogues. When Abacha suddenly died, parts of the country celebrated on the street as others went into a deep mourning. Yar’Adua wasn’t spared this exhibition of human nature as one camp wished, if they could, covered his demise at the same time as other hawks struggle to consolidate his succession. When the Burutai army swept over the Shiites in Gyallesu and leaving in their wake hundreds of bodies, some Sunnis jubilates in celebrations. That is human nature for you and as Shakespeare aptly captured one side of the story in his quote “The evil that men do, lives after them” God has made the full statement centuries earlier in Quran 99:6-8 “On that day will men proceed in companies sorted out, to be shown the deeds that they have done. Then shall anyone who has done an atom’s weight of good shall see it, And anyone who has done an atom’s weight of evil, shall see it”
The divine justice is to judge people according to their own volitional actions and our good and evil will be juxtaposed to a point that when we see a long forgotten evil we have committed, we can’t help but wail Quran 18:49 “…”Ah woe to us! what a book is this! It leaves out nothing small or great but takes account thereof” This should serve as a restrain to our vanities in life and consider the death of all and sundry as a time for deep moral reflection.
The current culture of only eulogizing the dead exposes our deep hypocrisy to the detriment of our collective progress. We may have no right to ultimately judge anyone (that is for God) but we shouldn’t fail in taking home the lesson of a deceased life, in death. According to a Hadith (Sahih Muslim 3084) a dead person continues to enjoy three things: An act of on-going charity he left behind, beneficial knowledge and a righteous progeny he left behind. By extension, as Shakespeare quoted above, equally the evil that one lives behind also lives after him. His contributions in the promotion of negative knowledge and the siblings he failed to train, also shares in the evil they do.
For Abba Kyari, even if we are not going to go into the allegations of the MTN 500 Million bribery, or the hand in sacking and subsequent persecution of Oyo-Ita, the NSA Monguno leaked letter, the controversial order that Ministers must clear with him to see the president, rumors of sidelining the Vice President, the nationally televised corruption allegation on Berkete Family, yet we must examine his role in the Corona pandemic issue.
In this age of technology and amidst the outbreak of Corona pandemic, Abba Kyari heads the federal government delegation team to Germany at a time when countries were imposing lockdowns and closure of flights. Because Abba Kyari and his likes were abroad, the federal government refused to listen to our urgent calls to close our airports. Malam Aminu Kano Airport was closed among several others in the country but the two most important airports that were gateways into Nigeria, Murtala Muhammed and Nnamdi Azikwe airports, were left open as several infected people trooped back home. Among the returnees were Abba Kyari and his team. Knowing very well they came from high risk areas, no self-isolation or quarantine was imposed on them. The worst part of it is Abba Kyari attended high profile meetings with most of our leaders for several days before he started exhibiting the symptoms and was forced into self-isolation. The rest is history and we must learn from it.
Our first lesson should be “No man is an island” as we are all mere mortals and the only thing that we leave behind is our legacy. I strongly believe the Corona Virus pandemic is God’s own way to warn, especially leaders and elites around the world, to pause, ponder and change the way they run things. Our leaders must address this problem in two dimensions: first they need more altruistic approach in addressing both the current corona pandemic and the long term economic plan. Lockdowns even in advance economies is half the measure and might even be counterproductive in the long run if sustained more than it is reasonable. Our country budgeted 10 Trillion in 2020 and allocated a paltry sum of 45 Billion Naira (0.4%) to health sector. This budget was conceived and approved by a President that spent several decades accusing past leaders in failing the health sector, a president that spent months abroad treating his ailments and travel regularly to see doctors. A country that has the worst statistics in the world, in maternal, infant and under 5years mortality rate. The late COS had to settle with the dilapidated health infrastructure in the country he failed to advise his principal to upgrade even to the minimal 15% of the AU declaration in which their government was signatory. The leaders of this country sees it fit to allocate a whopping 37 billion to renovate the national assembly in the same budget they allocated 46 billion for the healthcare of 200 million people. The present government has the worst debt profile in our history despite the fact that, 2.3 Trillion Naira out of this year’s 10 Trillion Naira budget, goes to debt servicing (enough money to build the Mambila power plant we were unable to build in 40 years and also the Abuja-Kano highway or enough to build a 600 million Naira hospital in each of the 774 local government across the country).
With the gloomy oil market hanging over our economy (at least for another year or more), Nigeria needs to focus on creating jobs amidst this crisis by allocating funds to SME’S. The NIRSAL non-collateral loans must be rid of any corruption and set to work effectively to reach beneficiaries as quickly as possible. I learnt that many people that applied, one year on, they are yet to receive finance. We have a vibrant youth population, some with very bright ideas but the lack of funding has made them a burden to the society instead of being its saviors. Access to funding is key in transforming and diverting our economy from over dependence on oil.
Nigeria can learn from China, and this pandemic should be a wake-up call to our leaders. In 1981, China had 850 million people in poverty (88%) but with aggressive policies of job creation and education the number drops to 0.7% in 2015. Every year almost 20 million people were lifted out of poverty, not the political lifting of poverty in Nigeria that government claims by giving out meager 5000 Naira monthly (not enough to buy half a bag of rice). The only solution to our problem is creating real jobs and with adequate number of the population gainfully employed I am sure all the crimes that bedeviled us will sharply fall and we can attain security that will afford us economic prosperity, anything short of that will spell doom for us. As the corona pandemic continues to ravage the mighty and low, crippling economies, this is the time for moral reflection. Challenges are blessings in disguise but only if you learn the lesson they came with. The Corona Virus had taken away Abba Kyari and either me or you will follow suit, but I am sure it will go away and leave many of us behind, but the lessons we learned and the decision we make in its midst, will surely not just shape our healthcare systems but our economy, politics and even culture for many years to come.
