@bolded, did you even watch the original trilogy?
Galadriel is not a rip off of Aragon. Infact she was one of the main in LOTR trilogy. Played by the same person who played Hela in the MCU (blanking on the name). And she is stronger than gandalf before you start another round of complains

of course I know who galadriel is but she was no sword wielding mudafvcker, she is stronger than gandalf in magic prowess! that's her area of expertise... elves are even more arrow shooting inclined, although legolas was good at both, he was still More arrow and bow based! sword fighting is more men(human) style

CAPdan21:
Rings of power first 2 episodes was fantastic...I feel Hotd has a higher ceiling but i must say I enjoyed this two episodes more...The visuals are fantastic and the dialog tops Hotd for now, expecting Hotd to bring their A game next week sha...8/10

dialogue tops hotd?! bruh not to be rude o but you must be high, dialogue was wack! it felt so forced, I was just cringing every time they talked, their facial expression didn't match their words, that alone tells some aren't good casting... especially every scene with that elf and human, never cringed so hard in my life

nkiliuzo:
just watched rings of power, even I say HOtD over rings of power, the way they are speaking sef is annoying, not like the sophistication of HOtD!

Lol, the show is basically copy and paste of Lord of the rings, only that it's now more female centric and lots of black faces (which I ain't mad about tho), we got female frodo and samwise with their gandalf the stranger( like we ain't stupid Amazon! of course we know that's gandalf), then theirs female aragorn also known as galadriel, also another forbidden romance between elve and a human, I keep looking for the reason why $60 million was spent for one episode, cos the CGI ain't doing it for me, the fight scenes are meh! look at the way galadriel fought that monster, happened so fast! like show the money worth this episode na! critics seem to love the show tho, so maybe na me no sabi better thing, abeg I will stick to my GOT prequel show... I will watch rings of power when it's all out..

GloriousGbola:
so who were the people who were abused by priests? ghosts? or unreligious catholics who dodged church?


you think it was irreligious catholic boys that were messed with?

or was it the devout boys who came to church on the regular and who could be lied to and manipulated by authority figures?

you realise no one could talk about this openly in tolkeins time and that the elves may well have been an allegory for boys abused by priests

i'm just messing with you as you are falling over your homophobia - and also your delusions of importance in the scheme of things.
you really think any ranting from you and your rightwing noisemakers will have an effect on amazon decisions .

do you even subscribe to amazon for starters?

sailor of the high seas feeling important in the scheme of things

am even lost in what you are saying, no be you dey do me sha, am just waiting patiently for the episodes to drop

GloriousGbola:
i suggest you google roman catholic church child abuse next

maybe you are unaware of catholic priests predilection with young boys
all covered up by the church for decades

maybe we do have an allegory right there

a race of young, slim long haired, fresh faced ageless men

see as you change topic, you even went into dark mode! the child abuse thing is common with priests, Tolkien isn't Lol, even at that, are you now insinuating that the elves of middle earth are inspired by molested young Catholic boys?? you do realize there are female elves, like dude! you're talking in the nonsense

GloriousGbola:
Roman Catholic

See as you fall your own hand

Maybe thats why all the elves look like young feminine boys with long hair

na wetin Google talk be this o... so guys with feminine attributes are automatically gay people?

GloriousGbola:
More people forming Tolkien fans

Do the elves not all give off a gay/bisexual vibe?

They may as well be monogendered

All slim with long hair and pointed ears.

which elves you dey talk about? anime elves or what?! Tolkien was a devout Roman Catholic, there's no way he would have given such a vibe, las las maybe asexual they could have been, cos of their immortality and they could get bored being with one person forever but that gay vibe no dey o

OhBritannia:
I am speechless, i don't know what to say.

I believe this review is given because they saw the cinema version which was released yesterday.

Well!! Let tomorrow reach and let us Judge by ourselves but one thing i know is that the ring of power won't disappoint.

as long as there's no gay stuff! cos I trust all this lgtpq whatever ppl. they will always want to force their agenda, I trust Tolkien fans, we go riot if we see that nonsense

nkiliuzo:
swears bro! I really don't see the appeal but as a marvel head, I gats watch it to be current with the timeline

it's been hard to enjoy but it has its moment, I think its on par with falcon and winter solider for me, both were mild to me, but am hearing that episode 5 is by far the best, twitter and Facebook are giving good reviews, tbh am tired of watching the thing sef maybe episode 5 will make us fall in love with it

don't know why Nigerians support this man! better una focus on your sh*thole country and buhari

yemi hanging with ballers while tiwa is disgracing herself there....

if oshoala dey barca she go dey play like prime ronaldo, but for some reason hasn't been able to translate that to the national team! annoying honestly

AxeofGod:
Please, let's see their handsome Igbo faces.

the article is about scams! if we have to pinpoint any tribe from naija, it will be afonjas..... na una people full southafrica

Bigchristo:
This man is the reason why Nigeria is still together today, if not Ojuku would have long divided Nigeria, by now we for nor Dey get all these problems

know history, ojukwu first asked for restructuring even after the mass massacre of igbos in the north following the coup, the igbos still wanted to be part of Nigeria but since his request was not granted, we decided Nigeria is not for us but this northern idiots in power then!
can you go in the street today and find 10 Nigerians today who are proud to be Nigerians?! if you see 3, thank God, this country is a failed contraption

kettykin:
I still don't know why this Man is not recognised and respected the way other heads of state are , OBJ , Abdulsalami .seems to carry more respect

maybe because of the role he played during the Biafra war, Gowon doesn't deserve any respect, also who would want to respect a military dictator! now he's acting like this all wise sage, pretending to know sh*t about politics in this country

HRMK:
what is the big deal in that?he collects highest allocation from abuja that allows him to play the godfather in pdp!many are leaving pdp bcs of him!!

are you dumb sha, rivers revenue is bigger than their allocation! Nigerians just like to talk anyhow without researching enough, why do you think wike is asking for more percent of state fund generation

other states should sit up, especially lazy states who were enjoying measly allocations! am more surprised at oil States which should have restructured from Nigeria system a long time ago! they could have protested on it and not let the north call the shots but look today, no oil rich state for naija reach Lagos (which is not a oil state) revenue at all

which dead technology did they use and check it? F9 country! well sha the rain wey dey fall for benin nowadays, words can't explain

they should come and help us jare! you can't shame the shameless, we accept help anywhere

Ikillbrokehoes:
She deserves the beating she got and to those cultist they all deserve to rot in jail.

your comment is stupid and not making any sense! which one is it? the beating deserved or the cultist rotting in jail?
if she deserve the beating then why wish bad for the people who beat her and if you condemn the cultist then why say her beating is deserved?
illiterates na im full this country, abnormal beings, Nigeria deserves all it's suffering for the fact like beings like you exist in it. the girl wasn't just beaten but humiliated even stripped of her clothes, how can you justify that? because of a dumb cultist song with wack lyrics ....,na wa o
they just use cultism and swear for Edo people, go most European countries na Edo cultist full there dey cause trouble

The government of Nigeria has granted
environmental approval for evaluation and
open cultivation of TELA Maize, a new maize
variety developed by researchers at the
Institute for Agricultural Research, Ahmadu
Bello University, Zaria, that resists fall
armyworm, stem borers, and tolerate
moderate drought.
The government’s decision was contained in a
certificate issued to IAR by the National
Biosafety Management Agency (NBMA), the
federal government agency mandated to
regulate genetically modified products in the
country.
The Certificate dated October 8, 2021, with
permit code no. NBMA/CM/003, was issued to
IAR for General\Commercial Release of TELA
Maize Genetically Modified for Drought
Tolerance, Resistance to Stem Borer and Fall
Armyworm. It comes into effect from
October 8, 2021, to October 5, 2024.
A decision document accompanying the
certificate from NBMA said that in arriving at
the decision to grant the permit, the agency
took into consideration the advice of the
National Biosafety Committee, the National
Biosafety Technical Sub-Committee, and the
risk management report provided by the
applicant.
“The Agency was convinced that there are no
known adverse impacts to the conservation
and sustainable use of biodiversity, taking
into account risk to human health. The
permit, pursuant to this decision, is without
prejudice to other extant legal requirements.
“This permit authorises the permit holder
and persons covered by the permit to
commercialise the TELA Maize genetically
modified for drought tolerance and insect
resistance,” the decision document from the
NBMA stated.
Reacting to the decision, Professor Ishiyaku
Mohammed, Executive Director, IAR, said It
is really inspiring for IAR to secure NBMA
approval for the commercial release of the
drought-tolerant and insect-resistant Maize
(TELA MAIZE).
“This goes to further highlight IAR’s capacity
and commitment to providing effective
solutions to agricultural problems facing our
farmers and optimizing food security for
Nigerians. The approval will open the way to
combating the devastating effects of both
drought and insect pests through the
deployment of this new variety of maize into
our farming system.
“The next step is to further evaluate the
performance of this new variety by farmers
on their fields in all the major maize growing
belts in Nigeria. Thereafter we shall seek
another approval by the National variety
release committee before making the seeds
commercially available for farmers to plant in
the 2023 cropping season.
Canisius Kanangire, AATF Executive Director,
said the approval has shown that Nigeria is
really the giant leading the way in Africa and
ensuring that smallholder farmers benefit
from life-changing technologies that have
transformed farming in other parts of the
globe.
“The approval by the government of Nigeria
is a sign that we are making good progress
especially in our quest to expand the options
for smallholder farmers on the continent to
profit from their labour by using affordable
technologies that enhance productivity and
reduce incidents of insect pests’ infestation.
“TELA Maize is coming at a time when
farmers are spending so much to reduce
insect and pest attacks as well as battling with
the issue of drought. With TELA Maize,
farmers in Nigeria will have relief from
frequent constant chemical sprays which
affect their health. The saving from chemical
use can be converted to address other family
needs,” Mr. Kanangire added.
Sylvester Oikeh, AATF TELA Maize Project
Manager, said this is the beginning of a new
era for maize farmers in Nigeria who have
suffered greatly from the twin problem of
drought and devastating insect pests
occasioned by climate change. The resources
and time spent in protecting maize against
insect pests will be used for other operations.
The maize produced will provide healthier
grains for farmers and consumers alike.
Rabiu Adamu, the TELA Maize Principal
Investigator, said with the deregulation, the
institute is now permitted to conduct
multilocation trials to evaluate the yield and
adaptability of the TELA hybrids across the
different agro-ecologies in Nigeria.
“The highest yielding hybrids exhibiting
tolerance to drought and resistance to stem
borer and fall armyworm will be released to
farmers for cultivation. We hope to register
some of the outstanding hybrids to
commercialize through Nigerian seed
companies for farmers to grow in the 2023
rainy season.
Prof. Adamu added that: “The deregulation
will fast-track our work to achieve the
mission of the project to avail farmers with
transgenic maize to solve the challenges of
drought, stem borer, and fall armyworm.
TELA Maize Project in Nigeria is part of an
international Consortium coordinated by
AATF, involving Bayer, International Maize
and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT),
and the National Agricultural Research
Systems of seven countries including
Ethiopia, Kenya, Mozambique, Nigeria, South
Africa, Tanzania, and Uganda since 2018. The
Project builds on gains from a decade of
excellent breeding work to develop
conventional climate-smart drought-tolerant
maize known as DroughtTEGO varieties.
