 Webmasters / HELP: My WP Posts Redirects To A Page by ify01: 12:15am On Sep 17, 2017 |
I tried clicking on a post (as a guest) in a website i manage, and i notice it redirects to a particular page within the website. But if logged in as an admin, I could get access to the post - able to read the post i.e if i click the link to any of the posts, it redirects me to the 'About Us' page. below is the redirect link (after clicking on post link): http://dlcfua.ml/about/?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fdlcfua.ml%2Funiabuja-post-utme-procedure-20172018%2F Please oh, what could be wrong?

| Religion / If Only Christians Pray by ify01: 9:47am On Oct 06, 2015 |
IF ONLY CHRISTIANS CAN PRAY With the happenings in the nation today and considering the events that pervaded both the pre-election, election and post-election periods and not also forgetting the permutations, predictions and threats that flew around and also the resultant palpable tension, one can’t help but wonder if the nation actually have a future together or if the woes experienced are as a result of the 1914 amalgamation and can only be resolved by the division of the country. Different questions are being asked about the possible reasons for the perceived woes, different answers given and different solutions proffered by different people from different disciplines. However, with all these events and questions being asked, one exceptional question stands out which requires more than the conventional “yes” or “no”. The question which is quite common is “Are you a Christian” and “where are the Christians?” Yes, where are the Christians while all these things are happening or have they lost their salt because they are known for something. But before we go further, let the tables now turn, so answer the question “Are you a Christian?” Wait! What did you just say? Yes? If so when was the last time you prayed for Nigeria? I don’t get it and so it is possible I am wrong, but do you mean you can’t remember? I am not asking about the day when your pastor, president or General Coordinator called for a group prayer but the day when you individually prayed for Nigeria. And don’t even think of lying because am right behind you! The second question now is when was the last time you prayed for yourself? I believe you can remember this without an hitch. So the question that actually comes up next is “Why do Christians find it hard praying for Nigeria?” Yes, why do they? Because even the unbelievers, the Muslims, the heathens have heard famous bible stories of Daniel and how the holy ones demanded for a “thing” and it was decreed by the watchers. Even the Muslims and Hindus have read stories of Martin Luther and Savanarola who through prayers brought changes to their country. Why Christians do finds it hard praying for Nigeria? Are there even Christians? If yes, where are they? These questions might be seen as philosophical and indeed paradoxical because when examined more closely, one finds out that there is more to it than just a conventional answer. With the stories of bloodshed, bombings, crisis and other tragedies which were once alien to the nation but which now have become a part of the nation daily affairs, one still finds it hard to believe that there are Christians. If so, where are they? Where are they in the face of all these challenges? Don’t they realize that the nation has need of them? They claim to have a God that answer but why can’t them pray? Infact where are the people you call Christians? Are they not the ones found daily at the cinemas and buses who argue sometimes blindly about frivolous issues or about the political landscape of Nigeria? The above question might be wrong, but are they the same people who are being accused of receiving bribe, compromise and other social and moral vices? I stand to be corrected, but if am wrong, where are they? One obvious but painful fact is that the acclaimed Christians have left one of their most important tasks which even their master have commanded them when he said “ Pray without ceasing” to engage in other activities that’s why the Muslims and heathens always find them engaging in vices. They don’t pray. They find it hard praying for Nigeria. I make bold to say that the Christians and indeed the church have failed Nigeria because if there is any other time the nation needs them most is now at this trying times when the unity of the nation is at stake. Now when it looks as if things are falling apart. Yes now! They are needed to pray and not to engage in frivolous activities and compromise. They pray for themselves but why do them find it hard praying for Nigeria? Or maybe Christians are not expected to pray for their countries or is it against their biblical laws? But inspiring stories have been told about the exploits of Elijah, Elisha, Girolamo Savonarola, John Hyde and Jonathan Goforth and what they did for their respective nations. Or maybe they are not Christians? If they are, why is the one of Nigeria different? Or maybe Nigeria doesn’t have Christians? If she does, why don’t they pray for her? Don’t they know that the nation is falling apart? It looks quite disgusting and indeed irritating when we find the Christians alleging plans of islamization. It’s even worse, when they say Nigeria can’t be Islamized. They are very good when speaking based on arguments on this “Islamization Plot”. They are more specialized in interpreting islamization attempts and are even vocal about it. It sounds even scarier when they fail to note that without them praying for Nigeria, all their speeches are like a leaking basket that can’t hold water. If only they can pray, they wouldn’t bother about any islamization threat because they know it will never happen. They wouldn’t bother about the rumours on the incessant killing of Christians because they know that they are safe. They wouldn’t even bother when there is an economic recession because they are assured it will never come near them. But this is if only they pray for Nigeria. But they don’t pray! And even when they do, they are not serious about it and are very much impatient about results. The biggest challenge in the church is impatience and the biggest problems in Nigeria are Christians who don’t pray for their nation. But on a more personal note, when last do you pray for Nigeria? When was the last time you prayed for yourself? Be sincere! It will be an injustice and therefore very wrong to say that all Christians don’t pray for Nigeria but it would also be pertinent to note that on a scale of ten, eight Christians don’t pray for their Nation, four percent finds it hard praying and of the two percent that pray, one percent pray only when there is need to do so or when told by their leaders to pray. Prayer as used in this context means praying on an individual level and not on group basics; not when called by the leaders or when there is an obvious need to do so. Moreover, if we now reading this will want to be sincerely frank with ourselves, or if for the purpose of clarity will find it pertinent to do an ‘environmental check’ and ask around, it would be quite obvious and also interesting to note that most Christians for reasons best known to them finds it more easier or rather convenient praying for themselves than for the nation. They most times don’t care about what goes on in the nation as they considered it none of their business and even when called to prayer for specific issues affecting the country by their leaders, they are very reluctant to go most times complaining about what the nation has to give them. They most times do forget the words of John Kennedy when he said that “Don’t ask what your country can give you instead ask what you can give your country”. They pray but they don’t pray about what they were asked to pray for – they convert it to prayers for themselves, their families or their academics. They don’t pray for Nigeria. But why do Christians find it praying for Nigeria? Do you have any idea? As a matter of fact, it is quite clear and obvious that it is not against their biblical laws having read and heard of Christians who helped and prayed for their nation even in the bible. There must surely be another reason for that! Are you a Christian? If yes, why then do you find it hard praying for Nigeria? Air your views so as not to be lost in the forest of righteous curiosity. The purpose of this article is not to make mockery of Christians or the Christian faith but to awaken them to the fact that they have an important role to play in the country – to pray for the country and that if there is anything the nation needs now is prayerful prayers from prayerful Christians. “Christians pray for us” has always been the cry of the heathen. Are you a Christian? Will you pray? Please do. If only Christians can pray, a lot of changes would be effected in the nation. If only Christians pray, most of the tragedies that befall the nation and always make headlines would have been averted. Is it the abduction in Borno? The bombings in Enugu or the motorcycle crash in Benue? If only Christians can pray, gory stories of horrible killings will not make headlines. Nigeria prays! We do know that not all Christians don’t pray for Nigeria, but how happy would it be if every one of them does pray individually and wholeheartedly without being called to function by their leaders. If only Christians pray, they would not bother about islamization threats knowing that it can never happen. If only they agree to pray, a lot of problems being faced today as a nation would be corrected knowing fully well that their master has given them authority and tasked them to “pray without ceasing”. Christians pray, the nation needs you. The welfare of Nigeria is the collective responsibility of every Christian. Pray for Nigeria as you pray for yourself because anything that affects it will surely affect you. It is agreed that you may have money to readily fly out in the event of any trouble. But what about your immediate and extended family, your friends and loved ones or even your properties and investments? Will you take them along? Think about those who will have nowhere to run to: those who don’t even have money to go to the next town. What would they do? Are you a Christian? If yes, when was the last time you prayed for Nigeria? Long time ago? No problem, it’s not too late, you can start praying now. The Nation needs and values your prayer. If there is any time that the Country has a need of your prayers is NOW. Please pray for Nigeria. Join the clarion call and pray for Nigeria. Don’t wait for your leaders or till something is rumoured to happen and a group prayer is urgently called. You don’t have to wait because you can start praying now. Please pray for Nigeria. Will You?

| Politics / Nigeria, United States In Fresh Face-off by ify01: 9:22am On Dec 14, 2014 |
The face-off between Nigeria and the United States over the commitment and sincerity of the US military in assisting Nigeria to fight the Boko Haram insurgency worsened within the week. This followed an allegation by a top Nigerian intelligence source that US trainers incited Nigerian soldiers to mutiny. The source told SUNDAY PUNCH that recent mutiny by Nigerian soldiers was as a result of the ‘negative teachings’ by US trainers, adding that it was a major reason the Federal Government stopped the US from training Nigerian soldiers on counter-terrorism. But the US in its reaction, through the Press Attache of the US Embassy in Abuja, Sean J. McIntosh, described the allegations as baseless. She said, “The allegations are baseless. The third phase of training did not occur because the Nigerian Army failed to provide the necessary equipment for the training.” The US, as well as the UK, France and China, had offered help in human and technical capacities to deal with the wider problem of terrorism in North-eastern Nigeria. But the relationship between the two countries worsened when the US refused to sell military hardware, especially cobra helicopters, to Nigeria to prosecute the campaign against Boko Haram. The security source, who pleaded anonymity, said the security chiefs and the Federal Government doubted the genuineness of the motive of the US security experts in the country. The source added that despite the presence of the US experts, there was no noticeable impact on the task of recovering the abducted girls of the Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok. He added that the US forces had not given the expected intelligence that could have been utilised by the nation’s security forces against Boko Haram. “Our investigations show that some of the soldiers that were involved in mutiny received training in the US. These trainings often highlight negative things about the Federal Government. “Another thing Nigerians should note is that since the Americans came here purportedly to help get the Chibok girls, they have not done anything. What have they done with all their technology and might? Is it not suspicious?” When asked if the US would be asked to withdraw its intelligence staff from Nigeria, the source said, “They are a super power. It might not be easy to tell them to leave.” But the US embassy spokesman said his country had not received any directive or request from Nigeria to withdraw its intelligence personnel who were brought into the country to assist with the rescue of the abducted Chibok school girls He said, “The US continues to support Nigerian efforts to bring about the safe recovery of those kidnapped and to advise the Nigerian government on its response. Staffing of the US government interdisciplinary team in Nigerian remains steady since the initial surge following the kidnapping.” PUNCH NG/ |

10. floating point numbers A floating point number is one that has a dot in it, like 0.5 and 10.8. You don't need any special syntax to set these types of numbers up. Here's an example for you to try: <?php $first_number = 1.2; $second_number = 2.5; $sum_total = $second_number $first_number; print ($sum_total); ?> You add up, subtract, divide and multiply these numbers in exactly the same way as the integers you've been using. A warning comes with floating point numbers, though: you shouldn't trust them, if you're after a really, really precise answer! Some Exercises To round up this section on number variables, here's a few exercises (In your print statements, there should be no numbers – just variable names): Exercise Write a script to add up the following figures: 198, 134, 76. Use a print statement to output your answer. Exercise Write a script to add up the following two numbers: 15, 45. Then subtract the answer from 100. Use a print statement to output your answer. Exercise Use variables to calculate the answer to the following sum: (200 * 15) / 10 Use a print statement to output your answer. In our next section, we'll take a look at Conditional Logic. LOST?

9. Division in PHP To divide one number by another, the / symbol is used in PHP. If you see 20 / 10, it means divide 10 into 20. Try it yourself: <?php $first_number = 10; $second_number = 20; $sum_total = $second_number / $first_number; print ($sum_total); ?> Again, you have to be careful of operator precedence. Try this code: <?php $first_number = 10; $second_number = 20; $third_number = 100; $sum_total = $third_number - $second_number / $first_number; print ($sum_total); ?> PHP won't work out the sum from left to right! Division is done before subtraction. So this will get done first: $second_number / $first_number And NOT this: $third_number - $second_number Using parentheses will clear things up. Here's the two versions for you to try: Version one $sum_total = $third_number - ($second_number / $first_number); Version two $sum_total = ($third_number - $second_number) / $first_number; The first version will get you an answer of 98, but the second version gets you an answer of 8! So remember this: division and multiplication get done BEFORE subtraction and addition. Use parentheses if you want to force PHP to calculate a different way. In the next part, we'll take a look at how PHP handles floating point numbers. |
| Programming / Re: An Introduction To PHP - Beginners Base by ify01: 7:41am On Oct 01, 2014 |
8. Multiplication in PHP To multiply in PHP (and just about every other programming language), the * symbol is used. If you see 20 * 10, it means multiply 20 by 10. Here's some code for you to try: <?php $first_number = 10; $second_number = 20; $sum_total = $second_number * $first_number; print ($sum_total); ?> In the above code, we're just multiplying whatever is inside of our two variables. We're then assigning the answer to the variable on the left of the equals sign. (You can probably guess what the answer is without running the code!) Just like addition and subtraction, you can multiply more than two numbers: <?php $first_number = 10; $second_number = 20; $third_number = 100; $sum_total = $third_number * $second_number * $first_number; print ($sum_total); ?> And you can even do this: $sum_total = $third_number * $second_number * 10; But try this code. See if you can guess what the answer is before trying it out: <?php $first_number = 10; $second_number = 2; $third_number = 3; $sum_total = $third_number + $second_number * $first_number; print ($sum_total); ?> What answer did you expect? If you were expecting to get an answer of 50 then you really need to know about operator precedence! As was mentioned, some operators (Math symbols) are calculated before others in PHP. Multiplication and division are thought to be more important that addition and division. So these will get calculated first. In our sum above, PHP sees the * symbol, and then multiplies these two numbers first. When it works out the answer, it will move on to the other symbol, the plus sign. It does this first: $second_number * $first_number; Then it moves on to the addition. It doesn't do this first: $third_number + $second_number This makes the parentheses more important than ever! Use them to force PHP to work out the sums your way. Here's the two different version. Try them both: Version one $sum_total = $third_number + ($second_number * $first_number); Version two $sum_total = ($third_number + $second_number) * $first_number; Here's we're using parentheses to force two different answers. PHP will work out the sum between the parentheses first, and then move on to the other operator. In version one, we're using parentheses to make sure that PHP does the multiplication first. When it gets the answer to the multiplication, THEN the addition is done. In version two, we're using parentheses to make sure that PHP does the addition first. When it gets the answer to the addition, THEN the multiplication is done. In the next part, we'll take a look at division. |

7. Subtraction in PHP I Am not going to weigh things down by subjecting you to torrents of heavy Math! But you do need to know how to use the basic operators. First up is subtracting. To add up using PHP variables, you did this: <?php $first_number = 10; $second_number = 20; $sum_total = $first_number $second_number; print ($sum_total); ?> Subtraction is more or less the same. Instead of the plus sign ( ), simply use the minus sign (-). Change your $sum_total line to this, and run your code: $sum_total = $second_number - $first_number; The s$sum_total line is more or less the same as the first one. Except we're now using the minus sign instead (and reversing the two variables). When you run the script you should, of course, get the answer 10. Again, PHP knows what is inside of the variables called $second_number and $first_number. It knows this because you assigned values to these variables in the first two lines. When PHP comes across the minus sign, it does the subtraction for you, and puts the answer into the variable on the left of the equals sign. We then use a print statement to display what is inside of the variable. Just like addition, you can subtract more than one number at a time. Try this: <?php $first_number = 10; $second_number = 20; $third_number = 100; $sum_total = $third_number - $second_number - $first_number; print ($sum_total); ?> The answer you should get is 70. You can also mix addition with subtraction. Here's an example: <?php $first_number = 10; $second_number = 20; $third_number = 100; $sum_total = $third_number - $second_number $first_number; print ($sum_total); ?> Run the code above. What answer did you get? Was it the answer you were expecting? Why do you think it printed the number it did? If you thought it might have printed a different answer to the one you got, the reason might be the way we set out the sum. Did we mean 100 - 20, and then add the 10? Or did we mean add up 10 and 20, then take it away from 100? The first sum would get 90, but the second sum would get 70. To clarify what you mean, you can use parentheses in your sums. Here's the two different versions of the sum. Try them both in your code. But note where the parentheses are: Version one $sum_total = ($third_number - $second_number) $first_number; Version two $sum_total = $third_number - ($second_number $first_number); It's always a good idea to use parentheses in your sums, just to clarify what you want PHP to calculate. That way, you won't get a peculiar answer! Another reason to use parentheses is because of something called operator precedence. In PHP, some operators (Math symbols) are calculated before others. This means that you'll get answers that are entirely unexpected! As we'll find out right now in the next part - Multiplication. |

6. Addition in PHP OK, let's do some adding up. To add up in PHP, the plus symbol ( ) is used. (If you still have the code open from the previous page, try changing the full stop to a plus symbol. Run the code, and see what happens.) To add up the contents of variables, you just separate each variable name with a plus symbol. Try this new script: <?php $first_number = 10; $second_number = 20; $sum_total = $first_number $second_number; $direct_text = 'The two variables added together = '; print ($direct_text . $sum_total); ?> In the above script, we've added a second number, and assigned a value to it: $second_number = 20; A third variable is then declared, which we've called $sum_total. To the right of the equals sign, we've added up the contents of the first variable and the contents of the second variable: $sum_total = $first_number $second_number; PHP knows what is inside of the variables called $first_number and $second_number, because we've just told it in the two line above! It sees the plus symbol, then adds the two values together. It puts the answer to the addition in the variable to the left of the equals sign (=), the one we've called $sum_total. To print out the answer, we've used concatenation: print ($direct_text . $sum_total); This script is a little more complicated than the ones you've been doing. If you're a bit puzzled, just remember what it is we're doing: adding the contents of one variable to the contents of another. The important line is this one: $sum_total = $first_number $second_number; The addition to the right of the equals sign gets calculated first ($first_number $second_number). The total of the addition is then stored in the variable to the left of the equals sign ($sum_total =). You can, of course, add up more than two numbers. Try this exercise. Exercise Add a third variable to your code. Assign a value of 30 to your new variable. Put the sum total of all three variables into the variable called $sum_total. Use concatenation to display the results. (In other words, add up 10, 20, and 30!) You don't have to use variable names to add up. You can do this: print (10 20 30); Or even this: $number = 10; print ($number 30); But the point is the same - use the plus symbol ( ) to add up. In the few next parts, you'll learn how to Subtract, Divide and Multiply. |
