Many of the perpetrators of
terrorist acts across the country are
now in lawful custody as a result of
the diligence and steadfastness of
law enforcement agents and security
operatives across the country. President Goodluck Jonathan made
this revelation Tuesday at a New Year
service held at the Saint Anglican
Church in Abuja. According to him, adherents of the
dreaded Boko Haram Islamic sect who
attacked the Police headquarters in
Abuja, the United Nations building and
the Saint Theresa’s Church in Madalla
have been apprehended.

Worried by the incessant road mishaps in the country, Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC) has said as from next year, any commercial driver that has not attained the minimum age of 26 years would not be issued with driving licence.

The FRSC alleged that underage commercial drivers were responsible for some of the road crashes, which were recorded in the country.

Kwara State Sector Commander of FRSC, Mr. Christopher Ademoluti, who dropped the hint in Ilorin yesterday, during the commencement of the issuance of commercial driver’s licence in Ilorin, said: “The measure would enable commercial drivers to have the maturity to drive and convey lives of others safely.”

He said: “We want to put the minimum age of a commercial driver in Nigeria at 26 to enable them have the experience, maturity and expertise to drive and convey the lives of other people, unlike the present system where we have under-aged people like 16 year-olds driving commercial vehicles.”

Ademoluti, who said the upgraded National Drivers Licence (NDL) was capable of reducing road traffic crashes on Nigerian roads, added that the NDL contains data of commercial drivers, serving as checks on them and making to be more careful and responsible.

He added: “With the new divers licence, we want to have all the data of the commercial drivers in Nigeria. We don’t want to have a driver who drives 18-seater bus to endanger the lives of the 18 people. It is only one commercial driver that dies where 18 people die.”

Ademoluti also said six driving schools had been approved in Nigeria to train commercial drivers before they are issued with new driver’s licence, “unlike when ordinary motor boys apply for drivers licence after just three months with a senior commercial driver without passing any theoretical application test of driving.”

He also said the biometric documentation of all licenced drivers would aid in tracking down criminal activities in the society.

Ademoluti also said it would stem the huge loss of revenue accruing to the state via unpatriotic citizens through their illicit activities in the parallel production of NDL.

Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has cautioned Nigerians against being taken in by what it claims as the rhetoric of the Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, a party it claimed would lead Nigeria on the path to Somalia if given the opportunity.
Reacting to the CPC's criticism of the
Christmas day speech of President
Goodluck Jonathan, the PDP National
Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh,
described the statement as a ritual
bereft of imagination or sincerity. The PDP said: "President Jonathan
has invested heavily in critical
infrastructures such as power, road
and rail transport, security,
agriculture, education among others.
While the maturity span of some of these infrastructure is long term and
are expected to yield benefits in
coming years, there is abundant
evidence that steady gains are
already crystalizing in sectors such
as power, education and rail transport. "The CPC will definitely be blind to
this steady progress because
constructive engagement is not the
ultimate motivation of its criticism,"
the statement added. On the allegation that the PDP
governments mismanaged resources
of the country, the PDP said: "Even in 2011 when the CPC took
desperation to a criminal level,
orchestrating an orgy of election
violence that claimed many lives,
Nigerians stood firm for the PDP in an
election adjudged locally and internationally as the most credible
in the nation's recent record. But has
the PDP squandered its mandate," the
statement asked. "This can only be true in the diseased
imagination of the CPC. The PDP has
remained the only truly national
party on whose shoulders revolve
the unity of the nation. Need we say
that a Nigeria in the hands of a political party like the CPC is on an
express road to Somalia. Besides, the statement continued,
"the PDP met Nigeria a pariah state,
retrieved and returned it to the
centre stage of global reckoning. It
is also on record that at a time the
economy of the western nations was hobbled by the global melt down
with banks collapsing, no bank in
Nigeria suffered similar fate. "Similarly, as part of the party's
strategy against corruption, the PDP
liberalized the economy and threw
the door open to generate new jobs.
The party also established anti-
corruption agencies, the EFCC and ICPC as well as enacted the Freedom
of Information law to enhance
transparency in governance. The
party's dispassion in winning the
battle on corruption has seen even
senior members of the party convicted for corruption. "We must add, that our battle on
corruption is total and that
President Jonathan has won the
most critical aspect of it which is
against electoral corruption.
Nigerians now go to the polls and are sure their votes will count"". There is
no shorter road to good governance
than when mandate and withdrawal
of it depend entirely on the people,"
the statement concluded.

HumbledbYGrace: Other former Presidents died what is it with Mandela

Can't they let him die?
The man has is too old and frail,this is not fair

U dey craze o

South Africa’s ailing former President Nelson
Mandela was discharged from hospital on
Wednesday after spending almost three
weeks being treated for a lung infection, the
presidency said. “He will undergo home-based high care at his
Houghton (Johannesburg) home until he fully
recovers,” said a statement from President
Jacob Zuma’s office. 94-year-old Mandela yesterday spent his first
Christmas in hospital, since being released
from prison in 1990. However, President Zuma and Mandela’s
relations made up for what would have been
a lonely Christmas by visiting him in the
Pretoria Hospital. It was the first time since his release from
Robben Island in 1990 that he would spend
Christmas away from home and family. Afterwards Zuma said Mandela was in “good
spirits”. “He was happy to have visitors on this special
day and is looking much better. The doctors
are happy with the progress that he is
making,” said Zuma, who joined Mandela’s wife
Graca Machel and the family on the visit to his
Pretoria hospital. “We found him in good spirits,” said Zuma in a
statement. Mandela was admitted to a Pretoria hospital
on December 8 after going down with a
recurrent lung infection he has been receiving
treatments for. He even had surgery to
remove gallstones. In several statements, President Jacob Zuma
said his predecessor “continues to respond to
treatment”. “Knowledge of the love and support of his
people keeps him strong,” Zuma said. “We urge all South Africans to keep Tata
(father) uppermost in their thoughts at every
place of worship or entertainment tomorrow
on Christmas Day, and throughout the festive
season. “We also humbly invite all freedom loving
people around the world to pray for him. He is
an ardent fighter and will recover from this
episode with all our support,” Zuma said.

The Bishop of Kaduna Catholic Diocese, Most Rev. Mathew Ndagoso, yesterday said that the Church (Catholic) in the state had forgiven dreaded Islamist fundamentalist, Boko Haram, over the series of attacks on catholic churches in the state.
The cleric said they decided to
forgive the sect since Jesus Christ
was born on Christmas Day as a
peacemaker, stressing that
forgiveness is one of the reasons
why Christmas is celebrated. Ndagoso said, "As we celebrate
Christmas, we remember the killing of
our members and bombing of our
churches, particularly Saint Rita
Catholic Church, Ungwan Yero,
Badarawa, Kaduna. We can only pray for the souls of the departed to rest
in peace. "We thank the state government,
individuals and different
organisations for standing behind us
during these turbulent times. "There is nothing we can do to our
enemies but to forgive them. This
Christmas time. We must show love
and forgive one another for peace
to reign in our society. "We should remember that over 2,000
years, during Jesus time on earth. He
faced a similar persecution,
humiliation and death in the hands of
those that were supposed to love
Him, but even at that He forgave them. He is born for our sake, and He
died for our sake. "So violence, being it religious,
political, economic and social, has
been there long time ago in the
history of humanity."

President Goodluck Jonathan came under criticism from his Facebook friends on Tuesday after he posted his Christmas message on the social networking site.
The President in the message said he
"personally" instructed government
officials to make conditions
favourable for Nigerians to
celebrate the Yuletide. The airports, he said, for instance,
had been given a "facelift", adding
that the terminals were
rehabilitated and the runways
upgraded ahead of the festive
season. He wrote, "I want to seize this
opportunity to wish you and your
loved ones a merry Christmas and a
happy New Year in advance. I feel the
pains of Nigerians and that is why
this Yuletide I have personally instructed that our roads be worked
on to enable you and your loved ones
to travel safely for the holidays. "Not done, we ensured that for the
first time in decades, the cross
country services (Lagos to Kano with
stops in cities along the route) of the
Nigerian Railway Corporation were
revived just prior to the holidays to provide Nigerian masses with an
inexpensive alternative to road and
air transportation. "This administration also took steps
to increase power generation by
remaining true to the Timelines of the
Roadmap to Power Sector Reform,
which has seen history made on
Friday, December 21, when Nigeria's power generation hit an all-time high
of just over 4,500 MW." But no sooner had Jonathan posted
the message on his wall than it was
greeted with a barrage of criticisms
from his friends. While a few praised and advised the
President on how to tackle the
problems bedevilling the country,
many others faulted his submissions. One of his friends, Kaycee Aloy-Obi
wrote, "Mr. President hold your
greetings. You and your family are
having great celebration. A litre of
petrol is sold at N110-N120, against
N97 which is the official price. There is unprecedented traffic jam on Ore-
Benin road due to bad roads. "People cannot go around to visit
love ones because of insecurity. Bury
your head in shame with your 4,500
MW when South Africa is generating
50,000 MW. It is paradoxical that
many Nigerians are having dry Christmas in midst of plenty." Yusuf Suleiman, asked the president
to match his words with actions,
adding that his "advisers are not
telling you the true picture of what
is happening." He said, "In Nigeria today, under your
watch, the country recorded the
highest looting of our treasury, and
you didn't do anything. We also have
seen how citizens were massacred, in
fact, the highest since civil war ended (and) your government is not
doing enough to stop that." Also, Bethel Vincent, wrote, "Haba! Mr.
President, you know say lie no good
at all. Why post something we have
not witnessed, yet you refer to us as
friends and fellow Nigerians. As I am
talking to you, my flat is running on generator; Benin-Auchi road is filled
with potholes and you are talking
about airport, how (many) Nigerians
can afford air transport?" A friend, Ajoba David, wrote, "Sir,
congratulations! Merry Christmas
and a happy new year. What do we
expect as a New Year gift come
Tuesday, January 1st? Well, I hope it
is not going to be another fuel subsidy razzmatazz like we
experienced last year. "Nevertheless, Nigerians have yet to
recuperate from the fever that was
injected into their veins last January
as a result of the purportedly and
verbally(sic) removal of the fuel
subsidy which Nigerians have yet to see any sign of seriousness in
bringing (those) culpable to book."

The Public Relations Officer of the Airport Command of Nigeria Customs Service, Mrs Thelma Williams while reacting to the arrest said that the passenger was apprehended for not being able to explain to the Customs authorities the source of the foreign currency with either bureau de change or bank slip which was a prerequisite for a proper documentation of the currency.

She noted that the passenger was guilty of the law for his inability to convince relevant authorities over the source of the money as well as his defiance of rules concerning the movement of huge sum of foreign currency outside the country.

“During the outward clearance of Qatar Airways flight to China via Doha, our officials reported that one passenger identified as Ikebude Akome with passport number A04073478 declared f$456,000 at E Wing screening hall of the Lagos Airport,” Williams said.

“On further investigation, it was discovered that the passenger had no proper document like the bureau de change or bank slip.” she added.

FRSC Launches New Drivers’ License That Requires Medical Verification

https://www.channelstv.com/home/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Nig.-drivers-license-300x297.jpg
The Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC) has launched the new commercial drivers’ license with security features that require a mandatory medical certification of drivers before issuance.

According to the Corps Marshall of the commission, Mr Osita Chidoka, the new license has security features, intelligence camera and biometrics that will mandate a medical certification for all commercial drivers before issuance.

He noted that the new license will be issued to commercial drivers after verified medical certificates on hearing and eyesight.

Hypertension and blood sugar level among other requirements.

Statistics reeled out by the Corps Marshall showed that up to 40 per cent of road accidents between 2007 and 2010 across the country resulted to almost 13,000 deaths involving commercial drivers.

This is the reason for the launch of the new commercial drivers’ license that will require all commercial drivers to present their medical verification before being issued the new license.

Also to be mandated for commercial drivers is a compulsory standard driving school check and a yearly retraining programme to be handled by the drivers’ unions.

The issuance of new drivers’ licenses will commence immediately as stated by the FRSC, while all old licenses will be phased out by September 2013.

This new developments was welcomed by key players in the transport sector such as president, National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) Alhaji Najeem Yasin and the Special Assistant to the Minister of Transport, Dikko Bala.

The Corps Marshall said other categories of licenses will also be released shortly.

It is believed that when fully in use, the new license will build a good data base of drivers and vehicles and help curb the high rate of accidents involving commercial vehicles in the country.

kheart: Yes yes yes third to comment

So?

A book claiming to be the world's first 'gay bible' has been published to coincide with the debate on same-sex marriage.

Titled the 'Queen James Bible', its editors claim that it is a re-working of the King James Bible translated in a way that 'prevents homophobic misinterpretation of God's Word'.

'Homosexuality was first overtly mentioned in the Bible in 1946 in the Revised Standard Version. There is no mention of or reference to homosexuality in any Bible prior to this – only interpretations have been made', the book's official website said.

The publication, printed and bound in the U.S. is timed to coincide with the current debate over same-sex marriage.

The sales pitch on the website says: 'You can’t choose your sexuality, but you can choose Jesus. Now you can choose a Bible, too'.

The book is on sale online but does not advertise its origins, with no specific publisher, editor or translator listed by name on it's offical website. 'God' is listed as the author and 'Jesus Christ' a contributor.

Douglas J. Moo, Wessner Chair of Biblical Studies at Wheaton College and a professional Bible translator, told The Christian Post that the Queen James editors' assessment of past translations is not entirely accurate.

'Few, if any English translations use the actual words 'homosexuality' or 'homosexual.' But the history of English translation shows that versions have consistently used other language to refer to what we would call homosexual relationships', said Mr Moo.

'For instance, the King James Version of Romans 1:27 refers to 'men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly.

'It would be very difficult to deny that this language, and the language found in many other places in both the OT and the NT, refers to homosexuality.'

A Vicar in New Zealand, meanwhile, has caused outrage by putting up a poster outside his church in Auckland, New Zealand, that claims Jesus was gay.

'It's Christmas. Time for Jesus to come out', the sign proclaims, with an image of baby Jesus as a toddler in a manger, surrounded by a rainbow halo.

Reverend Glynn Cardy of St Matthew in the City church, said that, as homosexuality was not a word until the 1800s, any mention of it in the Bible or other documents would have mistranslations.

I Don Tire For This Country.

The Catholic Bishop of Auchi, Most Rev. Gabriel Dunia reiterated the position in Abuja at a press conference on maternal mortality organised by the Catholic Secretariat of Nigeria (CSN).
Mr. Dunia, who is also the Chairman of
the Health Committee of the Catholic
Bishops' Conference of Nigeria (CBCN),
said that the position of the church
was unambiguously against the use
of artificial methods. The cleric said that government and other
stakeholders should desist from
deviating from the main issues and
concentrate more on educating
Nigerians on adopting natural family
planning methods. He said that the church and other
social agents of change should focus
attention and resources on
behavioural change among members
of the society. According to the
cleric, Nigerians love children as precious gifts from God, the same
way women should be encouraged to
bear children whenever they wish to. "The Catholic Bishops' Conference of
Nigeria and the catholic faithful
strongly oppose the diversion of
attention and resources away from
the main causes of maternal
mortality to the purchase and distribution of contraceptives.
"Rather, we propose adequate
investments in the area of education,
primary healthcare and the
mainstreaming of natural family
planning education and services to enable Nigerians realise their fertility
or child spacing intentions,'' he said
Mr. Dunia called on government to
redirect the sums budgeted for
purchase of contraceptives to the
educating more Nigerians on the adoption of natural family planning
methods. He said that the church was not in
support of overpopulating the
country, but that it was in the
forefront of promoting responsible
parenthood. Mr. Dunia said that
promoting the concept of responsible parenthood in the
country had no adverse effect on
the population and it would better
serve the cause of humanity and that
of God. According to the clergyman, it is the
belief of the Catholic Church that
population health is best realised
through openness and respect for
the cherished values of the people. In
his remark, the Auxiliary Bishop of Abuja, Most Rev. Anslem Umoren said
that the church was in support of a
situation where pregnant women
would be nurtured till birth. He said that the church would not in
any guise give its support to
proponents of artificial birth
control methods such as abortion
and use of contraceptives. Mr.
Umoren called on governments at all levels to channel more funds to
educating the masses and to provide
quality health facilities in the rural
areas to help check the increase in
maternal mortality. He said that the
church had never believed in the use of artificial means of birth control in
Nigeria. The event was attended by
some medical experts and some
clergies in the church.

When speaking of those who died at Sandy
Hook Elementary School in Newtown,
Connecticut this past Friday (Dec. 14),
President Obama called them “beautiful
children” and “remarkable adults.” 26 lost
their lives inside the school; most of them children aged 6 and 7. The president came to
Newtown to meet with the families of the
victims and speak at the interfaith vigil held at
the town’s local high school on Sunday night. While he was remorseful about the
“unconscionable evil” that transpired,
President Obama noted that this was the
fourth time in his presidency he had visited
and grieved with families of a mass shooting. “We can’t tolerate this anymore,” Obama said,
speaking after clergy and Connecticut
Governor Dan Malloy. “These tragedies must
end, and to end them we must change.” Earlier in his speech, Obama rationalized that
keeping our children safe and teaching them
well is something that we can only do
together with the help of friends, neighbours,
community and a nation. “This is our first task: caring for our children,”
he said. “It’s our first job. If we don’t get that
right, we don’t get anything right. That’s how
as a society we will be judged.” “And, by that measure, can we truly say, as a
nation, that we are meeting our obligations?
Can we honestly say that we are doing
enough to keep our children, all of them, safe
from harm? Can we claim, as a nation, that
we’re all together there letting them know that they are loved and teaching them to love
in return? Can we say we’re truly doing
enough to give all the children of this country
the chance they deserve to live out their lives
in happiness and with purpose?” After a brief pause, Obama picked up again.
“I’ve been reflecting on this the past few
days,” the president said, “and if we are
honest with ourselves, the answer is “no.” Obama ended his 18-minute speech by reading
off the names of each of the 20 children that
were killed in the massacre and asked that
God bless them “with His holy comfort.” [NBC]
