The Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC) Mobile Court, Kakau Unit in Kaduna, has convicted 25 motorists of various offences. Mr Fawzy Garba, a legal officer in the commission, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Friday in Kaduna that the commission would pay special attention on road users during Eid el- Kabir till Sept. 28. He said that among the 25, three were convicted of driver’s licence violation, 10 for overloading, three for worn out tyres, four for number plate violation and five for speed limit violation. He, however, said that the rest five arrested persons have been discharged. The Sector Commander, Mr Francis Udoma, told NAN that the commission instituted the mobile court to ensure zero road crash, injury and death during and after Eid el-Kabir. “Intensive special patrol and the mobile court are aimed at addressing the spate of avoidable road crashes usually associated with the surge of human and vehicular traffic during Eid el-Kabir. “All our men are on the road to arrest all defaulters on our highways and our goal is to reduce unexpected death of road users due to drivers’ carelessness or road obstructions. “We will arrest drivers who overload their vehicles, drivers with no licence, drivers who over speed as well as drivers with worn out tyres. Udoma said FRSC would not relent in its efforts to change the driving culture of road users in the country. “Driving is a noble profession and we want only professional drivers on our high ways, because if only experienced and professional drivers plight our roads, accident will reduce drastically. “We will be very thorough in the operation and so, we need the cooperation of everybody to keep our road safe,’’ he said.

Pope Francis has joined other world leaders to commiserate with the Saudi Arabian authority over the stampede outside the Islamic holy city of Mecca.


An ambulance drives towards the camp city at Mina, near the holy city of Mecca September 24, 2015. REUTERS/Ahmad Masood Saudi Arabia’s civil defense directorate has said not less than 717 people have died including 3 Nigerians following a stampede in Mecca as s ome African nationals have been blamed for the stampede that left over 850 terribly injured. The incident is the worst disaster to hit the annual hajj pilgrimage in 25 years. Pope Francis who spoke at an evening prayer service at New York’s St. Patrick’s Cathedral expressed his “sentiments of closeness in the face of the tragedy that their people suffered today in Mecca.”



“In this moment of prayer, I unite myself with you all in prayer to God, our father, all powerful and merciful,” he added. Opposition party in Nigeria, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) who has also sympathize with the Muslim Community worldwide over the incidence said it has been “grief-stricken since receiving the news of the tragic incident.” It is recalled that the Hajj season has already been marred by an unfortunate crane accident in which over 100 people were killed and dozens severely injured.


At least six Nigerians were involved in the Saudi crane incident at the Holy Mosque, Ka’aba, in Mecca on Friday, September 11. Ahmed Umar, Nigeria’s consul-general to Saudi Arabia, said the dead pilgrims were buried in a “specially designated cemetery’’ in Mecca.

FIFA president, Sepp Blatter has officially been charged by the Swiss Attorney General on “suspicion of criminal mismanagement”, CNN informs. Blatter, had not yet been charged by any authority despite 13 present and past members of the FIFA executive committee already facing trials for financial crimes. Sepp Blatter caught unaware by the prankster Sepp Blatter was pranked back in July by a man who spryed him money during press conference In a statement by the Office of the Attorney General (OAG) of Switzerland, it was revealed that Blatter signed a mischievous with the Caribbean Football Union when it was headed by whistle blower Jack Warner. It was also revealed that Blatter bribed UEFA president Michel Platini $2 million. The statement reads in part: “The OAG suspects that on 12 September 2005 Mr. Joseph Blatter has signed a contract with the Caribbean Football Union (with Jack Warner as the President at this time); this contract was unfavorable for FIFA,” said the statement.


“On the other hand, there is as suspicion that, in the implementation of this agreement, Joseph Blatter also violated his fiduciary duties and acted against the interest of FIFA and/or FIFA Marketing & TV AG. “Additionally, Mr. Joseph Blatter is suspected of a disloyal payment of two million Swiss Francs to Michel Platini, President of Union of European Football Association (UEFA), at the expense of FIFA, which was allegedly made for work performed between January 1999 and June 2002 ; this payment was executed in February 2011.” FIFA has also released a statement saying it has already been working harmoniously with the OAG by providing necessary documents and papers requested. Meanwhile, FIFA has announced the suspension of its secretary general, Jerome Valcke following accusations of corruption and mismanagement.

Nigeria has rubbished claims of pilgrims’ negligence from the Saudi authorities in the wake of the stampede of September 24, which led to the death of four Nigerians, as well as hundreds of others from various nationalities. Multiple sources have blamed the issue on safety lapses, as well as the lax management of the Saudi Arabia officials.
The Middle East country was hit by a similarly tragic occurrence on September 11 when a crane crashed into the side of Mecca’s Grand Mosque, killing 87 persons and leaving at least 201 wounded. Reports say Mohammad bin Salman Al Saud’s convoy led to the stampede.
Al Saud, 30, is the deputy crown prince of Saudi Arabia, second deputy prime minister and minister of defense. His convoy started a frenzy as pilgrims coming in an opposite direction sighted him and his over 350man convoy and became apprehensive, which led to the stampede. Arabic newspaper, al-Dyar, said of the incident on Thursday, September 25: “The large convoy of Mohammad bin Salman Al Saud, the King’s son and deputy crown prince, that was escorted by over 3,50 security forces, including 200 army men and 150 policemen, sped up the road to go through the pilgrims that were moving towards the site of the ‘Stoning the Devil’ ritual, causing panic among millions of pilgrims who were on the move from the opposite direction and caused the stampede.” As the Saudi authorities face increased criticism over the incident, Iran’s Hajj official, Saeed Ohadi, has also weighed in on the tragedy, blaming the stampede on lapses in the country’s safety system.

Makes sense dude!!!

MOST OF THEM ARE ACTUALLY SMART

: To be candid, most 3rd class graduates are actually smarter than some second class upper or first class graduates. Other circumstances and constraints of life like sickness, victimization, disillusion, influence of bad friends, playfulness and related issues might have affected their academic outcomes which invariably led to a somewhat questionable final grade after graduation. Sourcing instances really closely, my uncle actually graduated with a 3rd class grade due to financial constraints when he was in school as he had to hustle his way out of the ever demanding education, he now works with one of the top telecom companies in Nigeria.
THEY HAVE MORE STIMULATION TO PROVE THEMSELVES

: Having been under-rated and victimised due to a poor grade in school, they know people will most probably look down on them and in response to that, they will try to shift people’s opinion of them away from their paper certificate in order to prove how worthy they are despite a bad grade in school. They tend to work closely to employer’s expectation just to make them know that they are not walk-overs compared to other graduates with better grades. This is a key driving force for successful career-minded 2.2 and 3rd class graduates in the employment market.
MOST OF THEM HAVE PERSONAL SKILLS

: Students who have grades that are not meant to be proud of, often have enviable personal or learned skills which might have been one of those things that made them not graduate with a good grade. Some probably needed to augment their grades with other requisite skills, aptitude and certifications in order to aid their chance of getting employed. With this at hand, some of them are obviously better than the so-called graduates with good grades who crammed their way out of the tertiary institution just to graduate and discover they really have but not much to offer.
MOST OF THEM MUST HAVE LEARNED FROM PAST MISTAKES

: Especially those who didn’t get good grades due to reasons that might have been avoided but afforded due to probably negligence or unawareness.They tend to be strongly motivated and determined to make it and correct their past errors. Such man with such stimulation and mentality will excel beyond expectation if a task is to be freed into his care.
THEY ARE MORE HUMBLE

: A graduate of lower grades would be clouded with humility when reminded of his grade. They don’t boast of their achievements or success. Regardless of their achievements, they believe they got the job through God’s grace and not by their power. Compared to most first class graduates who may end up behaving like Chatur(Silencer) in three idiots.

DISCLAIMER: This post is not in any way trying to convince, stimulate or boost your ego to graduate with a low grade. It’s only meant to clear the air and stop the discrimination against low grade graduates as we all can most times perform equally if tasks are to be distributed.


Davis is out of the building....

For some, the room is a chilling space and it’s meant for enjoyment of all sorts while to others it’s a library which is mostly common when all seats are filled and some decided to turn the school library to their bedrooms, then you know exam is stepping into the room. Some also prefer staying glued to their rooms in order to avoid being stalked up by mates who only stroll about the reading rooms aimlessly looking for who to call “iwe!“, “First classer!“, “efiko!“.

This idea to some people is like barking up the wrong tree as they can hardly cope reading in the room without distractions while some are comfortable with it, it varies.

Here are some of the things to ensure if you are one of the Students Who Study In The Room/Hostel.

KEEP YOUR PHONE FAR FROM YOU

: The truest greatness lie you will tell yourself is to keep your phone at a distance less than 20metres and claim you are reading. It works if you are using itel N205 on which the only meaningful thing you can do is text your dad, even calling a friend on such phone won’t be clear, something like future’s voice. But a blackberry user, who has pings screaming up every minute will find it difficult to ignore the messages and concentrate. You might also decide to check a friend’s updated status after being notified by Facebook, or probably check Linda Ikeji for some smart rumours. If possible, do away with your phone while reading in your room.
DON’T ANNOUNCE YOUR AVAILABILITY

: If you are to study successfully in your room, endeavour to make yourself seem unavailable to neighbours. This is like the best thing since sliced bread for ladies pretty ladies. It’s obviously inevitable for you to stop that guy from coming around your room even though you shunned him the previous day. Therefore, the best you could do is to pretend like you are away for that moment in order not to be caught between two stools.
AVOID USING THE BED

: Reading in your room and you are comfortably lying on the bed with your legs crossed? I doubt if education was that comfortable. In such condition, you are bound to sleep off at any moment and you will discover you have actually gained nothing. That is a far cry from what is referred to as serious reading. I’d rather you got a study desk with a chair of corresponding height and make use of it.
KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT

: “Messi better pass Ronaldo na!”, “Nicki Minaj’s assets are artificial!”, “Mr Ibu has a pumped stomach!“…These are useless arguments that you can’t help but listen to in students’ hostels. You must learn to keep your mouth and ears shut when issues like this ensue. If you are the type that can’t do but jump up and take the matter to the head as if Nicki Minaj was your cousin then kindly pack up your books and head to the library, because you will definitely get distracted.

The wise man bridges the gap to success by laying out the path by means of which he can get from where he is to where he wants to go. If you know you are not the type that can read in the hostel, don’t deceive yourself. Head to the library to read what you have to read and leave the rest to God.
