geeez: The Minister of Aviation looks very cosmetic and that's exactly her approach to aviation business in Nigeria. Remodeling airports which I think should be concessioned and not addressing the real issues like safety and security of passengers. Even the runways are in pitiable states. She prefers some cosmetic surgery as treatment for a skin disease rather than address the underlying cause. It's a shame

LocalChamp: Govt raises 11-man panel to probe Police Colleges’ rot

Posted by: Gbade Ogunwale, Abuja on January 23, 2013

The Federal Government yesterday set up an 11-man committee to probe the rot in Police Colleges.

The committee will also ascertain the amount of money appropriated for the police to renovate and upgrade the police institutions between 2009 and 2012.

Director, Special duties in the Police Affairs Ministry is the head of the probe team raised by Police Affairs Minister Omoniyi Olubolabe.

The committee has one week to submit its report.

President Goodluck Jonathan on Saturday visited the Police College in Lagos after Channels Television exposed the rot in the school.

Members of the committee are: Rep. of NPF-Vice Chairman, Director, Finance and Account-Member, Director, PID-Member, Director, PSD-Member, 3 Nos.

Olubolade said his ministry and the police management team will address the rot in police colleges in the country without delay.

He spoke to reporters after a meeting with Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Abubakar at the Force Headquarters yesterday. ,The minister said the matter is of priority to the government.

Olubolade said the meeting with the IGP centred on how to fix the decay in police colleges and how to tackle the rising wave of terrorism, kidnapping and other criminal activities in the land.

The minister said: “We looked at the training of policemen and the training institutions not only on police colleges because solving the problem of police colleges alone is not enough.

“We will solve the problem of police colleges and that of other training institutions including the Police Academy in Kano as well as the Staff College in Jos.

“Once we address those issues, we will be making better progress. So, if you ask me, this meeting was aimed at repositioning the police to attend to training matters. To attend to operational matters so that this year, we will see a better policing in Nigeria police.”

“Nigerians should expect a highly professional police force that will stand up and face the challenges that are confronting our nation. And to do that, I have to constantly meet with the management team headed by the IGP who is here with me as many times as possible.

“This is to ensure that we are on course with our plan, to ensure that whatever we asked for to make the police force more efficient, is given to us. It is also to ensure that we are making progress in fighting crime, criminality and terrorism.

“Like I said, I am here to follow up on what I have just spoken about; to interact with the IGP and his management team, to look at lapses that may exist and how we will surmount them because it is a joint effort and I think it is critical to do that.

“The IGP is making some progress in certain areas and I will also have to look at them”.

ignis: Nice article. I wish the muslims in northern Nigeria can put this into practice, there will be no terrorism and bokoharamism. And there will also be peace.
My observation is that there is always peace in muslim dominated countries, for example Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Mali, Sudan, Egypt, Iran, Syria, Somalia - just to mention a few. Lest I forget my country, in Nigeria we have peaceful states like Borno, Yobe, Kano, Bauchi, Yola etc
Indeed Islam is a religion of peace. Islam preaches and encourage peace as it is evident all around us.

Jucol: A good look at most discussions on this forum shows that most of us know very little about the cars we have spent so much to buy. This is because the Licensing Authorities do not request for and or provide the essential technical details of a vehicle during registration.

When a motorist in Nigeria is stopped for Police check, very often you see the Policeman/men peeping, cleaning and almost tearing apart the engine in search for the ENGINE NUMBER. This sometimes happens even at night. Some Policemen do have a piece of chalk. Should the engine number be used as identification How did the Licensing Authorities come about this? Did they learn this from USA,UK, Germany, Japan or France??

The CHASSIS NUMBER(VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER -VIN) is very clearly written on the chassis and also easily accessible. Chassis No.is universally used for vehicle identification. And no two vehicles have the same chassis no.

The engine is simply a part of the vehicle. It can be changed as at any moment just like the seats or wheels. It has become common practice to obtain a POLICE REPORT or something like that when the engine is changed. Why do the Police not ask for a proof of change of colour.

Most of our leaders do travel abroad. Don't they look around and learn?

On my vehicle registration paper ( smaller than a folded A4 sheet) the following TECHNICAL information are available:
NAME OF OWNER
MAKE OF VEHICLE
MODEL
YEAR OF MANUFACTURE
DATE OF REGISTRATION
CHASSIS NUMBER
REGISTRATION NUMBER
TYPE OF ENGINE
TYPE OF FUEL: DIESEL OR PETROL
CAPACITY OF ENGINE IN KILOWATTS/HORSE POWER
STANDARD TYRE DIMENSIONS
LICENSING AUTHORITY

Registration papers in Nigeria hmmmmmm more than a HAND OUT abi BOOK.

I understand the local officials may not be well trained to supply these details. However, it could be made mandatory for all shippers to supply these details for vehicles coming into Nigeria. ALL VEHICLES from Europe and America have these information.

Lets discuss this issue and hope for a change.

Cheers

alhaji000: Hundreds of Phones were released this year by different company. But not all were best for use or good for the end users.

ICTCatalogue.com compiled together a list of top worst phones release in 2012.

Number 1: PCD Chaser(Virgin Mobile)
https://ictcatalogue.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/PCD-Chaser-287x300.jpg
Why we consider PCD Chaser as a worst phone in 2012 was its abysmal battery life. More specifically, it was basically nonexistent. Its slow internal speeds didn’t do it any favors, either.

Number 2: ZTE Score M (MetroPCS)
https://ictcatalogue.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/ZTE-Score-M-MetroPCS-300x220.jpg
Glacial ZTE Score M is a very slow mobile phone.it has a distracting amount of bloatware. In addition, its mediocre screen’s narrow viewing angle also didn’t help out.

Number 3:Sony Xperia Ion (AT&T)
https://ictcatalogue.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Sony-Xperia-Ion-ATT-259x300.jpg
As the most high-tech phone of the bunch, we were surprised that the Sony Xperia Ion shipped natively with Android 2.3 Gingerbread. And though it has a 12-megapixel camera, its photo quality didn’t impress us.

Number 4:]Huawei Verge (MetroPCS)
https://ictcatalogue.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Huawei-Verge-MetroPCS-300x234.jpg
We’re all about simple feature phones, but the Huawei Verge took simplicity and threw it off a cliff. Not to mention, its 1-megapixel camera is poor and its Web browser is tedious.

Number 5: Pantech Swift (AT&T)
https://ictcatalogue.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Pantech-Swift-ATT-300x213.jpg
Though cute, the Pantech Swift, complete with a QWERTY keyboard, has an irritatingly slow processor inside and an unresponsive touch screen.

Number 6: Samsung Brightside (Verizon)
https://ictcatalogue.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Samsung-Brightside-Verizon-300x167.jpg
Frankly, we couldn’t see a bright side with the Samsung Brightside. Its less than stellar camera, laggy CPU, and poor screen resolution were all enough to convince us that there is no silver lining.

Number 7: Pantech Hotshot (Verizon)
https://ictcatalogue.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Pantech-Hotshot-Verizon-300x300.jpg
Despite its name, the Pantech Hotshot is lukewarm at best. it has a very slow internal speed but If you can deal with its slow internal speeds, good luck with its laggy data speeds and unresponsive screen

It adds nada to us in any way

If anyone has a problem with the condition of a state, why not make your own effort/contribution in making it better, rather than responding to it in a cruel way
