As long as GEJ is retiring in the creek; Otuoke, trust me, it won't be business as usual with respect to ND oil block grabbing . He will be calling the shots from his creek. He has lists of all oil blocks; allocated and unallocated. As soon as he gets to Otouke, he will rally his kinsmen behind him for resource control...meaning no oil block will be allocated without full consent of the ND, and even Ameachi as minister of Petroleum will be useless. Wike demonstrated how useless he is. You people haven't seen anything yet. He conceded not only for the interest of Nigeria but for a bigger fight... to champion a cause of justice for his people.

this is what i see happening soon from the camp of the otueke man

Certainly Nigerians has become of age. Gone is those days, when because of election people will burn properties worth billions of Naira. Today we have all known better, what we have seen been demonstrated today is the understanding that people must be hold responsible for their action.
A time will come in Nigeria when money will fail. Presently some unscrupulous politician still believed on buying peoples choice. They have completely forgotten that electorate entrusted their position to them.

If you are given opportunity to serve and you in turn betrayed your subject ,you will cry but it will be too late. God hate betrayals. The result of this election has shown that there is an end be watchful, what goes around comes around.

N'Djamena - Seventy-one Chadian soldiers have been killed and 416 injured in two-and-a-half months' fighting Boko Haram, the Chadian army said on Friday.

Chad is taking part in a regional offensive against the Nigeria-based extremists radicals along with troops from Nigeria, Niger and Cameroon.

Chad army chief General Brahim Seid told reporters in N'Djamena the "valiant soldiers" had died since February 3 in the "just and noble cause of bringing peace and security" to the region.

The countries neighbouring Nigeria, including Chad, sent troops to help crush Boko Haram after the Islamists began to threaten the region surrounding Lake Chad, where the borders of all four nations converge.

Nigeria's army has been criticised for failing to deal with Boko Haram fighters whose bid to set up a hard line Islamic state has killed more than 15,000 people since 2009 and put scores of thousands to flight, according to the UN.

The UN on Thursday launched an appeal for $174 million to give "life-saving aid" to the almost 200,000 Nigerians who have fled the country due to the group's brutal attacks.

who knows what the school fees of these universities was like those days?

Abuja - The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Thursday berated each other over the diplomatic row between Nigeria and Morocco, reports New Telegraph.

While the APC asked the President to address Nigerians on the cause of the ongoing diplomatic row between the two countries, the PDP told the APC to be patriotic.

In a statement issued in Lagos on Thursday by its National Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed, the APC said President Jonathan must clarify the thorny issue of whether or not he spoke with King Mohammed.

The party said until the President addressed the issue, Nigerians would remain a nation of liars.

The PDP in a swift reaction insisted that Jonathan was not a liar.

The party challenged the APC to tell Nigerians whether or not its presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari was considering the request of some foreign nations to scrap the anti-gay laws and allow same-sex marriage in order to secure their support.

Yaounde - Several thousand people took to the streets of Cameroon's capital on Saturday to denounce Boko Haram's bloody insurgency and call for the killing of the group's leader Abubakar Shekau.

"This march symbolises Cameroon's unity against Boko Haram," the country's Labour Minister Gregoire Owona told marchers in Yaounde, before shouting "Shekau!"

In response, the crowd which organisers said numbered 10 000-15 000, chanted: "You are dead, you are a coward."

Over the past seven months Cameroonian soldiers have been battling the extremists, which are now locked in a regional fight that also includes soldiers from Nigeria and Chad.
Boko Haram's six-year insurgency, which has left 13 000 dead and forced over a million from their homes, has increasingly spilled over into neighbouring nations.

Several ministers led the vocal, but peaceful march, which saw protestors waving the flags of Cameroon, Chad and Nigeria.

"It was important to be here for me, for my brothers who are on the front, for my country," said marcher Philomene Ekombo, a Cameroonian flag in hand.

However, the date of the demonstration sparked controversy in Cameroon because it coincided with the anniversary of protests in 2008 in which the government said 40 people were killed. Locals groups put the death toll at 139.

Critics claimed the march organisers, with government encouragement, planned the protest in order to overshadow memorials of the 2008 killings. Organisers denied the allegation, saying: "There is no memorial war."

Please be mindful of your language. That man is the president of the most powerful African country.

Afrobeat musician, Seun Kuti has reacted to the news of Olusegun Obasanjo dumping the People’s Democratic Party (PDP),by lambasting the former head of state.

The son of legendary Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti has reacted on his Facebook page by saying that Obasanjo has failed to take responsibility for killing his grandmother and other of his crimes.

“Baba obasanjo has blamed everyone else for this bad government except himself. You were no different and this is just an escalation of your tactics. Na so u burn my father house, kill my grandmother and blamed unknown soldiers.
“ Hian. Oga take responsibility sometimes too. Not only are we on the wrong journey we got lost there too and are on the wrong path. We are lost in a wrong journey and Obasanjo is the navigation officer,” he wrote on Facebook.

Olusegun Obasanjo had on Monday announced his exit from the party after infamously tearing his membership card.

A further postponement of Nigeria's general elections beyond the rescheduled polling day of March 28 would be "unconstitutional", the country's election chief, Attahiru Jega, said on Wednesday.

"I don't see how anybody can contemplate any extension beyond these six weeks because there is no constitutional grounds on which you can do that," Jega said in testimony to the Senate.

Jega told the chamber that his Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) was prepared to hold the vote on the original polling day, February 14, but was persuaded to support a delay by guidance from the country's security chiefs.

National Security Advisor Sambo Dasuki and military top brass said soldiers would not be able provide election security nationwide because they were fighting Boko Haram in the northeast.

The Islamist rebels have continued killing at a relentless pace, including at least 38 deaths in two separate suicide attacks on Tuesday.

The military has also claimed major gains in recent days.
Asked how he would respond if the security agencies requested a further delay, Jega referred to a constitutional provision that requires elections to be concluded at least 30 days before May 29, when a new government must be sworn in.

"Every Nigerian knows we want elections to hold... within a constitutional time frame," he told senators.

"The security agencies are (made up of) patriotic Nigerians. Let's give them the benefit of the doubt."

But he added that a further delay "will only have to be unconstitutional and I don't see how anybody can contemplate unconstitutional things".

There were widespread accusations that the military pushed for the delay to allow President Goodluck Jonathan more time to revive his struggling re-election campaign.

Experts say he is facing a tough test against former military ruler Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress party, with the vote likely too close to call.

Lagos - The Federal Government has approved the revocation of the licences of private jet owners who used their aircraft for commercial purposes, Punch reports.

The federal government said their licenses were revoked as they were contravening the private operations certificates issued to them by the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority.

A report that made available did not state the private jet owners whose certificates were to be revoked, it stated that 51 private jets operating under 27 operators were in the NCAA database.


Minister of Aviation, Osita Chidoka, stated that some operators of private jets in the country were beginning to threaten him as well as intimidate employees of the Federal Ministry of Aviation over the decision to bar them from operating commercial flights.

Abuja - Nigeria's military on Monday claimed the recapture of Monguno, a garrison town in northeast Borno state, after it was seized by Boko Haram extremist militants last month.

The insurgents suffered casualties and the military operation disrupted an attempt to re-supply fighters in the flashpoint town of Baga with weapons and food, a statement said.

"Troops in a military operation spearheaded by highly coordinated air assaults have completed the mission of clearing terrorists from Monguno and environs this morning," defence spokesman Chris Olukolade said.

Boko Haram seized Monguno on January 25, taking hold of a military base and a cache of weapons, after overpowering troops based in the town.


Losing Monguno was seen as a tough blow for the military given its proximity to Borno's capital Maiduguri, which Boko Haram has long eyed as a takeover target.

Fears that Boko Haram would use Monguno as a launching pad for an attack on Maiduguri were confirmed on February 1, when the extremists stormed the state capital, before being repelled.

The military's claims of successes over Boko Haram have often been inconsistent with witness accounts but if confirmed the recapture of Monguno would add to a growing list of army victories this month.

According to defence officials, a new cooperation with neighbouring militaries, including Cameroon, Chad and Niger, has put the rebels on the defensive, with several towns under rebel control retaken.

But the insurgency has persisted, including a huge assault of Gombe city Saturday by scores of insurgents and a suicide bombing in Yobe state's capital Damaturu on Sunday that killed 13.

Nigeria's election had been scheduled for February 14 but security officials cited raging violence as a justification for a six-week delay.

The international community and Nigeria's opposition have warned that any further postponement could spark a constitutional crisis and even unrest.

President Goodluck Jonathan has vowed that the elections will go ahead and a new, elected government sworn in on May 29, in keeping with the constitution.

end time things

Rabat - Morocco has refused to host January's
African Nations Cup soccer finals amid fears over
the spread of the Ebola virus, throwing the 2015
tournament into jeopardy on Saturday.
The country, which had already said it wanted
the 16-team event postponed, rejected an
ultimatum set by the Confederation of African
Football to confirm the hosting of the continental
championship due to take place Jan. 17-Feb. 8.
A statement from Morocco's sports ministry
said: "The decision is dictated by health reasons
because of the serious threat of Ebola and the
risk of its spreading."
A decision on the tournament will now be made
next week when CAF has an executive
committee meeting in Cairo but Morocco will
almost certainly be stripped as hosts.
CAF said earlier on Saturday it would make no
statement until after Wednesday's meeting.
Morocco is concerned that supporters from west
Africa converging on the country for the
tournament could bring with them the deadly
virus and put at risk their important tourist
industry

They asked CAF to postpone the event to June,
or even January 2016, but this was rejected last
week by African soccer's governing body, who
set Morocco a deadline of Saturday to confirm it
would host the three-week tournament.
CAF can now either move the event to another
country - although it has had no public
expression of interest from nations it approached
to be on standby as possible emergency hosts -
or cancel it at great financial cost.

CAF accused Morocco of being alarmist in its
fears over the spread of the virus, which has
caused almost 5,000 deaths in Liberia, Guinea
and Sierra Leone, and set out a lengthy list of
reasons why it felt they could still host the
tournament without any risk.
Global health authorities are struggling to contain
the world's worst Ebola epidemic since the
disease was identified in 1976 and cases have
reached as far as the United States and Spain.

Morocco has therefore stood firm on its refusal
to host and could face sanctions including the
possibility of a lengthy ban from future Nations
Cup tournaments.
The Moroccans did offer in Saturday's statement
to host the 2017 finals.
The tournament is African football's showpiece
but has a turbulent history, with several
prospective hosts like Kenya, Libya, Zambia and
Zimbabwe pulling out or being stripped of
hosting rights in the past after being awarded the
tournament.
Libya gave up the hosting of the 2017 finals in
August because of security issues and stadium
delays and CAF must find a replacement.
The 2019 finals are set for Cameroon, 2021 in
the Ivory Coast and 2023 in Guinea.

Abuja - Dr Doyin Okupe, the Senior Special
Assistant to the President on Public Affairs, said
on Friday that President Goodluck Jonathan,
remains the most performing president the
country has had since independence.
Okupe said this at the Public Affairs Forum held
in Abuja.
The four-day forum was organised under the
auspices of Okupe’s office to highlight the
achievements of the Jonathan-led administration.
Okupe said that although previous Nigerian
leaders performed well within the circumstances
they found themselves, none of them achieved
half of what President Jonathan have achieved in
four years.
The presidential aide described as "nonsense"
claims that the Transformation Agenda of the
President existed only in the media.
"It is nonsense to say that the Transformation
Agenda of Jonathan existed in the television. We
have not spoken about what he has done. We
are going to overwhelm Nigerians during the
campaign."
He said it was regrettable that not much had
been done to sell the good performance of the
Jonathan`s administration to Nigerians.
Okupe, however, held that past Nigerian leaders
contributed immensely to the development of the
country to their best abilities as each of them
recorded his own achievement.
He said that the Jonathan-led Federal
Government would showcase its achievements to
Nigerians during the presidential campaign for
2015.
This, he said, would convince the people that
Jonathan remains the best option for the country
in the years to come.
He, however, advised Nigerians to shun the
antics of the opposition, saying that in spite of
their criticism, they had not told Nigerians what
they would offer, if given the opportunity to
govern.
"This election will be a ‘no contest’ affair. We
are telling the world what Jonathan has done. We
will not stop until well beyond February. 2015,"
he said.
Also speaking, the Minister of Transport, Sen.
Idris Umar, presented the ministry's
achievements in the last four years during the
event with the theme "Jonathan`s administration:
Four impactful years''.
He said the resuscitation and modernisation of
the Nigerian Railway system had reached an
advance stage.
The minister highlighted various stages of work
on new and existing rail lines in different parts of
the country, many of which, he said, would be
completed by the end of the year.
He stated that the Jonathan-led administration
had repositioned the Nigerian port system in line
with global best practices.
The administration, he said, had also increased
the use of inland waterways and enhanced
maritime safety and security.
The minister said that the administration had
also improved the inter-model coordination of
the Nigerian transport system and enhanced
private sector participation in transportation in
the country.
"These achievements have certainly impacted
positively on the actualisation of the
Transformation Agenda of Mr. President to the
overall benefit of the Nigerian economy and the
citizens," he said.

Urine is a waste product made in the kidney as a
means of removing unwanted substances from the
body. Numerous factors affect the colour of urine,
what we eat and drink goes a long way to affect
our urine colour. A person that fasts from food
and water on a sunny day will have dark yellow
urine due to dehydration. The myth that when the
urine is yellow indicates malaria is very wrong,
the standard colour of urine ranges from
colourless to amber to light yellow depending on
various factors. Alcohol in the system and when
over hydrated especially in cool environments can
lead to a very clear urine with high volume.
Vegetables can change urine colour. Drugs can
change urine colour and odour e.g. Rifampicin can
make the urine colour orange in colour. Below are
urine colours and what they stand for:
Yellow/light orange may be caused by removal
of excess B vitamins from the blood
Bloody urine is a symptom of wide variety of
medical conditions
Dark orange to brown urine can be a symptom
of jaundice, rhabdomyolysis or Gilbert’s syndrome
Black or dark coloured urine may be caused
by melanoma
Pinkish urine can result from the consumption
of beets
Greenish urine can result from the
consumption of asparagus
Reddish or brown urine may be caused by
porphyria
Blue urine may be caused by the ingestion of
methylene blue e.g. in medications
Blue urine stains can be caused by blue diaper
syndrome
Purple urine may be due to purple urine bag
syndrome
The odour of normal urine can reflect what has
been consumed or specific diseases. Sweet smell
is sugar in urine which indicates diabetes.
Asparagus, onions, saffron, tuna fish, alcohol,
coffee can affect the scent of urine.
The normal urine volume is 1-2 litres per day but
this can be affected by some factors. In very hot
conditions, the body tends to save more water
especially when a lot is lost sweating. If you feel
the urge to ease yourself and you engage in an
activity that increases sweating without drinking
any fluid to replenish that urge will suddenly
disappear because the body will make use of all
water in the body when necessary. Expect much
urine when you take alcohol, in cold weather, in
air conditioned vehicles etc. Expect low urine
volume in hot weather, when engaging in activities
that make you sweat.
Drinking of urine is very wrong even in survival
conditions it only makes thirst worse, rather soak
a cloth in urine and place it on the head.
