Health › ‘I Had No Idea My Country Had Challenges In Its Health System' Says Dangote by chibaby1985(op): 2:08pm On Sep 30, 2019*. Modified: 2:35pm On Sep 30, 2019 |
Aliko Dangote, Nigeria’s and Africa’s richest man has said that he was not aware that Nigeria, his country of birth had challenges in its health system until he had a chat with Bill Gates. Speaking at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation’s 2019 Goalkeepers’ event in New York, Wednesday, Dangote said that since his talk with Gates, he has been focusing on his country’s healthcare needs, particularly, enabling children to have access to nutritional food. The Chairman of the Dangote Group said his efforts have helped to shape policy around nutrition in Nigeria. At the moment, the Nigerian government’s policy on food fortification makes it “compulsory for producers of certain products such as rice, sugar, wheat, spaghetti, noodles to include vitamin supplements in their products,” reports Vanguard . “When I started my foundation in 1994, I never realised we had this massive challenge in the health sector. “Really, it was mind-boggling when we had this agreement to collaborate with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and that really opened my eyes to realise that there are a lot of challenges in health. “At that time I didn’t have the opportunity of meeting Bill but meeting Bill changed me into a different person. “This is somebody that has nothing to do with us in Africa or Nigeria but he is putting his money and his soul into everything. “He is very committed to helping humanity and that really surprises me a lot and I realised that he is a simple person and I never knew Bill would be this simple. He is a very soft-spoken guy and kind hearted. “It is very difficult to find people like Bill in this world. My only prayer is that in the next few years, I will try and give my chunk of wealth to charity to,” the Nigerian business magnate said. Gates, who is the co-founder of Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, also pointed out that his relationship with Dangote has enabled him to make inroads with his projects in Africa. Gates recently criticised the Nigerian government for failing to improve the basic infrastructural elements needed to enhance the lives of people in the country. According to him, the execution process of the Economic and Recovery Growth plan launched by President Muhammadu Buhari in 2017 to restore the country’s economy does not reflect the needs of the people. “Nigeria is one of the most dangerous places in the world to give birth with the fourth worst maternal mortality rate in the world ahead of only Sierra Leone, Central African Republic and Chad. One in three Nigerian children is chronically malnourished. “The Nigerian government’s economic recovery and growth plan identify investing in our people as one of three strategic objectives. But the execution priorities don’t fully reflect people’s needs, prioritizing physical capital over human capital,” he was quoted by local media, The Cable. “To anchor the economy over the long term, investments in infrastructure and competitiveness must go hand in hand with investments in people. “People without roads, ports, and factories can’t flourish. And roads, ports and factories without skilled workers to build and manage them can’t sustain an economy,” he said. https://ebeanonews..com/2019/09/i-had-no-idea-my-country-had-challenges.html

SHOWKEY baba chibaby1985: John Odafe Asiemo popularly known as Daddy Showkey is a Nigerian celebrity musician whose reign in the late nighties was nationwide.
He was born on August 4th 1970 to Isoko parents in Delta state and grew up in Ajegunle, Lagos State. He got his nickname through his grandmother's elder sister's son who was popularly known as Showboy way back. Showboy brought him up, so, he had to adopt the name, "Showkid" as a child. But as he grew older, his friends changed it to "Showkey".
The “Galala King” was the first artist to start the Nigerian Dancehall style. Instead of using the Jamaican patois, Daddy Showkey decided to use Pidgin English for his music and invented a dance style that changed the Nigerian dancehall scene.
“Galala” became one of the most popular dances in the 90's. Some of his hit songs include, "Fire Fire", "Diana" and "Ghetto Soldier.
He is happily married to the beautiful Lolo Sandra Ebere Asiemo and they are blessed with lovely children.

Nawaoh ooooo chibaby1985: A 2017 high court judgment outlawing corporal punishment in private homes has been upheld.
The Constitutional Court has ruled that corporal punishment is illegal in South African homes.
Ruling on whether the common law defence of reasonable and moderate parental chastisement of children is consistent with the constitution on Wednesday morning, Chief Justice Mogoeng Mogoeng upheld a 2017 high court ruling which made it illegal for parents to spank their children at home, dismissing an appeal to the ruling.
The landmark ruling was appealed by civil society group Freedom of Religion South Africa (For SA) which believed the judgment would make criminals of well-meaning parents.
The ruling, according to For SA, would have parents prosecuted for assault if convicted. Parents could have a criminal record for abuse, or the children removed from the family home if the court found them guilty.
The society believes there remains a clear distinction between violence, abuse, and mild physical correction.
For SA wanted the Constitutional Court to find the high court wrong in abolishing parents’ defence of reasonable and moderate chastisement, and ultimately set aside the judgment.
Children’s rights group The Children’s Institute lauded the ruling and said it was a clear victory for children’s rights and the end to the neglect of children’s rights.
Dr Stefanie Röhrs from the institute, speaking on Cape Talk last year, said there were other tools parents could use to discipline their children. She mentioned a “timeout” and the taking away of privileges as some options parents could resort to aside from spanking children.
Röhrs said it was important to understand that a child was going through the development phase, meaning they were still unclear on the rights and wrongs of their actions.
She reiterated that people would never smack their grandmothers out of love, as that would clearly be seen as wrong.

Foreign Affairs › Re: A New Apartheid Era In South Africa by chibaby1985(f): 5:30pm On Sep 15, 2019 |
godlyguy: A disturbing phenomenon is arising across Africa, this is a tactic that was used by the the European Emperors of ancient Roman Empire but today, some of our leaders have masterfully implemented this tactic on the minds of the African layman and for this, I foresee a great evil that will destroy everything until those that remain are too weak to fight their enslavement.
This is about the xenophobic murders & looting happening in South Africa in the past few days of August to September 2019, many of us looking at the event, look at the angry, mostly slum dwelling unemployed South Africans, killing innocent African migrants in their country with disgust and most of us have put the full blame on them. Yet I assure you that there is something worse, something greatly wicked going on in the background, and by the end of this article, you will understand some of what is truly going on.
In Rome, when the people got agitated because of due to growing hunger or lack of opportunities for the layman and the Cesar feared that the people will go wild and breakdown the system, becoming uncontrollable, the Cesar will organize games and festivities that lasted days, giving them the illusion of a great society while the Cesar worked behind closed doors to secure himself, strengthen the army presence in the capital, endorse legislation that the people will otherwise refuse if enough attention was on the matter and many time, this lead to the reduced rights of the people. This is the same game that is being played on the South African people, to be honest, across Africa. The looting and murder of the African foreigners in South Africa is the new Colosseum and gladiatorial arena, distracting the people from the obvious elephant in the room, the fact that Europeans descendants of the perpetrators of the apartheid own everything and are still 100% in control as they all remain in the upper middle class and the super rich, benefiting from the best that South Africa has to offer, while black South Africans unwittingly go around, killing and looting people who are bottom dwellers as they are, doing the hard work for their dutch (white) overlords who actually own everything.
A situation is introduced apparently from no where and allowed to linger, as the people look one way, legislation and laws are put into effect that only serve to increase the power of the few over the many.
What has been the political, economical and societal condition of the South African common man in the past 20 years:
More than 50% of all blacks in South Africa live in abject poverty, which is evident in the fact that the slums & ghettos seems to be far more over populated than the city centers. Another 30% of South Africans find themselves below the middle class income, white most European Whites, Chinese and Arab dominate the middle, upper middle class and super wealthy.
In the past 30 years, South African crimes and criminals have grown bolder and more sadistic, evident in the increased rapes and thefts around South Africa mostly perpetrated by the mislead blacks and mulattoes of South Africa.
The growth of unemployment has been steady for 30 years.
The South African woman has more job opportunity than the average male South African, there also seem to be more black women in universities than men in South Africa.
A breakdown of the family as 60% to 70% of marriages end in divorce.
The unprecedented increase of teenage pregnancies, babies that will grow up without a father or a stable home, children who have been proven to be prone to violence.
The introduction of drugs becomes the icing on the cake that puts crime, prostitution and violence on hyper-drive.
With this downward spiral it is only natural that the society will totally breakdown eventually. But for one second let us look at the downward spiral of South Africa and just for the sake of posterity agree that there is an unseen hand pulling the strings, let us all think to ourselves, who stands to gain from the devastation and alienation of the blacks in South Africa.
South Africa seems to be taking the exact same footsteps that the African American took from the 60s to the 90s. First a nice time of job opportunities and the resemblance of equality, then the loss of these jobs, neighborhoods turned into Ghettos, the introduction of drugs into the system, the rise of teenage pregnancy, the breakdown of marriages, the silent provision of education and job opportunities for the women, empowering women over men no matter how progressive the society is, this act will create a confused generation of men against women and women against men mentality, pushing society step by step into a melt down of morality with drugs as a catalyst for this process. This systematic breaking down of society will lead to frustration, as the mind of the people are fighting an enemy they can neither identify or comprehend.
Is the situation of the south African men self inflicted or is there a hidden hand that has orchestrated this chaos towards an end? I think that there is a concentrated effort by unseen powers to bring the black population to their knees, i say this because what has befallen the black population of South Africa through the clever breakdown of society seems to be the same modus operandi used in the black population of the United States and anywhere that a white population is living alongside the descendants of Africa. To clearly see who the conductors of this symphony are, we must first look without bias who stands to gain at the detriment of the blacks of South Africa.
Is it not interesting that the Blacks of South Africa the face of the xenophobic attacks? Is it not equally interesting that the Blacks of South Africa have been guided to see the most powerless group as their enemies? This enemies happen to be black and these are the same group who spoke up with Blacks of South Africa during the apartheid, by this action the blacks of South Africa have alienated themselves from the rest of Africa, leaving them open to the whims of those super rich Whites who control South Africa who have also over the years shown that they remain as racist and apartheid as ever.
The super-rich whites in South Africa control the wealth fully, so they control the jobs and government, this is not hidden news, yet Black South Africans were convinced by puppets who belong to the Whites in South Africa to turn on their brothers, who they can slaughter and plunder without repercussion. I can see the hands of the European overlords who truly control every aspect of South African Society playing a hand in this event because the symphony of wickedness concocted isn’t composed for the benefit of the black South African layman, the xenophobic killings have done two things has created a problem in South Africa which the people do not yet see.
Those who are involved in the looting and killing won't simply stop, these are mostly drugged up black men who have never been in a position of power and money, they have looted and they will continue to do so. When the finally drive all the African Foreigners from South Africa, they turn on each other when they realize there is still no job that can satisfy their urges, this will lead to a total break down in the black society. But who stands to gain at the broken down black South African society? The whites, who will then be the same people the broken blacks turn to, when this happens the rhetoric that they are inferior so there for unable to manage their country will be validated, then comes the apartheid times again. They have alienated themselves from the rest of Africa and the world, so there will be no one to turn to when the sufferings begin again.
I dare say that a 1000 years from now, the whites in South Africa will be recognized as the true indigenes of the land, they also call their so called language Afrikaans, could this be a blueprint on how the white races of Europe wish to divide and conquer the land of Africa until they alone are remembered as the true African. It seems awfully convenient that the black continent is called Africa and these dutch settlers who just arrived call themselves Afrikaners and speaking Afrikaans, Africa must be careful for great evil is on the horizon for the black man in Africa. South Africa has just sealed their fate, the coming months should validate every point I have made in this article.

Celebrities › Change Your Friends If They Do Not Talk Wealth by chibaby1985(op): 5:10pm On Sep 15, 2019 |
Personal relationships are very important. Bill Gates in his blog talks about how Warren Buffett has helped him to define success by the strength of one’s personal relationships. Both have been friends for decades now and Gates gives a lot of his success credit to Warren Buffett’s friendship. There is research that says, You are the average of the five peopleyou spend the most time with. In the modern age, it’s okay to talk about the lack of money or your bad credit situation but people generally do not talk about their huge bank balances and frankly speaking, why should they?. If someone brags about their new Mercedez Benz car, it sounds as obnoxious as dragging nails on the chalkboard. 70 percent of all millionaires today are first-generation millionaires, they did not inherit their money from their forefathers. Instead, they worked to get to this place and have hard earned their fortune. It takes courage to make money, the courage of risk, the courage of entrepreneurship. Let’s look at it as a more simplified example. If you surround yourself with friends who talk about cars, you will automatically begin to like cars and would like to replace your old, rusted out car with a new car. If your friends constantly talk about real estate, you will be inclined to take this as a new business for sale/purchase of land and property. Everybody wants to be prosperous. Wealth makes one happy. There is no harm in going into business with a friend. The reason why you should surround yourself with people, friends circle who talk about business, money is for changing your mindset for better business opportunities. Friends who talk about wealth, money, business are better destined to reshape your future than those who put your down. https://ebeanonews..com/2019/09/change-your-friends-if-they-do-not-talk.html

Travel › Italy To Pay Nigerians, Others €700 To Stay In Its Villages by chibaby1985(op): 12:13am On Sep 13, 2019 |
The town of Caltanissetta in Sicily, Italy, have opened the doors of its vacant homes to asylum seekers, who have crossed the Mediterranean from Libya. In another region in the south of Italy called Molise, new comers including Nigerian migrants will be given €700 to stay in one of its villages for three months, according to The GuardianUK. These persons are, however, mandated to open a business and the population of each village is to be kept under 2,000. “We wanted to do more; we wanted people to invest here. They can open any sort of activity: a bread shop, a stationery shop, a restaurant, anything. “It’s a way to breathe life into our towns while also increasing the population. “If we had offered funding, it would have been yet another charity gesture,” Donato Toma, President of Molise, said. Toma said if a village can keep its population under 2,000, they will be given €10,000 per month to build infrastructure and hold cultural activities. The International Organisation for Migration reports that in the second quarter of 2018, Nigerians made up 13 per cent of the migrant population in Italy, a spot it shared with fellow West African state, Guinea. The offer by the President of Molise is appetising to Nigeria’s Igbo retailers and importers, who build dynasties as well as expand their footprint through informal apprenticeships. https://ebeanonews..com/2019/09/italy-to-pay-nigerians-others-700-to.html |

Events › Re: Turkish Couple Spent Their Wedding Day Feeding 4,000 Syrian Refugees by chibaby1985(op): 5:02pm On Sep 12, 2019 |
Good chibaby1985: A Turkish bride and groom decided to share their joy on their wedding day by inviting 4,000 Syrian refugees to eat with them and celebrate in the southern Turkish city of Kilis.
Fethullah Üzümcüoğlu and Esra Polat, who got married in the province which is near the Syrian border last week, invited some of those refugees who have fled the country since the civil war which began four years ago.
Turkey has welcomed nearly two million Syrian refugees and in Kilis, there are 4,000 refugees that Kimse Yok Mu (Is Anybody There?), a Turkish charity which provides help to millions across the world, is responsible for providing food to.
In total, there are four million Syrian refugees who had fled the country in what the UN described as the worst crisis of its kind in a generation. Almost eight million people are displaced within the country, the UN said last month.
The idea for sharing their special day with those less fortunate was that of the groom's father, Ali Üzümcüoğlu. He told Serhat Kilis newspaper that he hoped others would do the same and share their wedding celebrations with their Syrian brothers and sisters.
"We thought that on such a happy day, we would share the wedding party with our Syrian brothers and sisters. We thought this was best done with Kimse Yok Mu who could provide a truck. God willing, this will lead to others doing the same and giving food to our Syrian brothers and sisters. For us, it was an interesting wedding dinner."
The father also said he was glad that the couple began a new life "with such a selfless action". Wedding guests shared food using trucks and those providing meals included the bride and groom themselves.
Hatice Avci, a spokesman for Kimse Yok Mu, told i100.co.uk that on Thursday, the couple pooled the money they had received from their families to host a party with the refugees who live in and around the city.
The bride, Mrs Polat, told i100 what a wonderful experience it was and how happy she was to share the meal with those in need.
"I was shocked when Fethullah first told me about the idea but afterwards I was won over by it. It was such a wonderful experience. I’m happy that we had the opportunity to share our wedding meal with the people who are in real need," she said.
According to Turkish media, local singer Reşit Muhtar also helped out and provided food to the special guests.
The groom, Mr Üzümcüoğlu, said it was a great feeling to make others happy. "Seeing the happiness in the eyes of the Syrian refugee children is just priceless. We started our journey to happiness with making others happy and that’s a great feeling," he said.
And his father just might have got his wish. His son said that his friends were so inspired, they hoped to do the same during their wedding celebrations.

Almost eight million people are displaced within the country, the UN said last month. The idea for sharing their special day with those less fortunate was that of the groom's father, Ali Üzümcüoğlu. He told Serhat Kilis newspaper that he hoped others would do the same and share their wedding celebrations with their Syrian brothers and sisters. "We thought that on such a happy day, we would share the wedding party with our Syrian brothers and sisters. We thought this was best done with Kimse Yok Mu who could provide a truck. God willing, this will lead to others doing the same and giving food to our Syrian brothers and sisters. For us, it was an interesting wedding dinner." The father also said he was glad that the couple began a new life "with such a selfless action". Wedding guests shared food using trucks and those providing meals included the bride and groom themselves. Hatice Avci, a spokesman for Kimse Yok Mu, told i100.co.uk that on Thursday, the couple pooled the money they had received from their families to host a party with the refugees who live in and around the city. The bride, Mrs Polat, told i100 what a wonderful experience it was and how happy she was to share the meal with those in need. "I was shocked when Fethullah first told me about the idea but afterwards I was won over by it. It was such a wonderful experience. I’m happy that we had the opportunity to share our wedding meal with the people who are in real need," she said. According to Turkish media, local singer Reşit Muhtar also helped out and provided food to the special guests. The groom, Mr Üzümcüoğlu, said it was a great feeling to make others happy. "Seeing the happiness in the eyes of the Syrian refugee children is just priceless. We started our journey to happiness with making others happy and that’s a great feeling," he said. And his father just might have got his wish. His son said that his friends were so inspired, they hoped to do the same during their wedding celebrations. https://ebeanonews..com/2019/09/turkish-couple-spent-their-wedding-day.html |
