Literature / Scary Shadows by jayjam(m): 4:22pm On Jul 19, 2015 |
Scary shadows
My shadow on a sunny day
when standing clear of any tree
starts at my feet and makes a shape
of black that looks a bit like me.
But when it’s dark a table-lamp
will cast a shadow on the wall.
And down the hall the shape it forms
will hardly look like me at all. The shadow from a light close-by creates a kind of monster shape. That slithers round the walls and doors like vampires in their long black capes. When lights are dim the shapes look weird. We conjure-up all kinds of gloom. There are no monsters, vampires, ghosts. It’s just the shadows in the room |

President Goodluck Jonathan and candidate for the Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP) in the Saturday Presidential election has won majority votes in Bayelsa , his state . However , the difference between registered and accredited voters in the state showed that 200 ,000 persons failed to participate in the electoral process . The results declared by the state ’ s Collation Officer and Vice - Chancellor, University of Port – Harcourt , Rivers State , Prof. Joseph Ajienka, showed that Jonathan won in the eight local government areas of the state . A breakdown of the Presidential results so far released showed that in Kolokuma/ Opokuma , PDP scored 20, 633 while APC got 402 . In Nembe , PDP, 60,950 , APC , 557; Ekeremor, PDP 61,012 , APC 374 ; Yenagoa , PDP 45 ,439 , APC 462 . Also , Jonathan polled 50 ,754 in Ogbia, his local government area while Buhari was said to have scored only 214 votes . Statistics revealed that many registered voters in some local government areas did not participate in the elections. For instance out of the 133 ,442 registered voters in Yenagoa Local Government Area, only 51,577 showed up for accreditation . The situations were the same in Kolokuma- Opokuma , Nembe , Ekeremor and Ogbia where 13,785 , 29 ,238, 14,451 and 13 ,389 persons respectively refused to participate in the exercise. Results of three remaining local government areas were still being expected . The results were announced after so much delay attributed to the terrains of the state by the Resident Electoral Commissioner ( REC ) , Mr Baritor Kpagih . |

Politics / Eligible Students Must Vote-a Concerned Student by jayjam(m): 5:14pm On Feb 03, 2015 |
In a frantic move by the federal government to disenfranchise eligible student voters from participating in the forthcoming general elections thus allowing schools to be in session has been seen as an act capable of portraying the PDP led government as being too "afraid to fail".why must they give us breaks for the most trivial issues and when it matters most,they won't? The last time I checked,we are the youths of this country and should have a say in deciding who leads us. Is the president afraid that the Nigerian students might vote against him,if he is,what about students who will vote for him,what about those students and lecturers that will be working as INEC ad-hoc staffs? whatever must have informed the ministry of education's announcement to open schools during elections should serve as a pointer to the defence of Nigerians that the elections need not be postponed. If INEC said they have given out 42.8m PVC's and the FG feels they should shift the poll by six wks so that more cards can be distributed,why then,are they preventing some(major) from voting. Allowing them on campus alone constitutes a grave security risk hence,their parents are their best security for safety. WE DESERVE TO BE HEARD,WE MUST VOTE....LET'S SUPPORT THIS CAUSE A concerned GREATIFE student writes from OAUIFE |

Business / Nigeria Adds 11 Non-oil Products To Export List by jayjam(m): 5:41pm On Jul 21, 2014 |
As a mark of the growing influence of the non-oil sector in the country’s export business, more products are leaving the shores of Nigeria to destinations abroad, MAUREEN AZUH writes In line with the Federal Government’s efforts at diversifying the economy, the Nigerian Export Promotion Council said 11 more products had been added to the non-oil products that the country exported to the global market between 2013 and now. The new products, according to the NEPC, are educational books, robusta coffee, double folded dust sheets, ice making machine, mica muscovite and leather furniture. Others are high density polyethylene, aluminium ingots, reduced iron and iron pellets, garments and yam. The primary markets and destinations for the products are Sierra Leone, Spain, the United Kingdom, Ghana, India, Republic of Benin, Japan, Bulgaria and the United States, while high density polyethylene is exported to the Economic Community of West African States member countries. The NEPC said there was a steady growth in the non-oil exports, with a value of $2.97bn in 2013, accounting for 15.9 per cent increase over 2012, with a value of $2.56bn . “We have about 11 new products, which we introduced from 2013 to various new markets in Africa and the world; these are products that give Nigeria competitive advantage; it is a very interesting development for the country,” the Executive Director, NEPC, Mr. Olusegun Awolowo, told our correspondent. He added that the country’s exports were no longer limited to the traditional markets of Europe, especially the United Kingdom. According to statistics by Cobalt International, other non-oil products that were exported from the country to other parts of the world in 2013 comprised cocoa and cocoa preparations, sheep and goat skins, sesame seeds, aluminium articles, rubber, tobacco products, cotton, yarns and woven fabrics, copper, cashew nuts, prawns, shrimp as well as fish. The NEPC said at a recent workshop that the country’s participation in international trade fairs and exhibitions every year had contributed largely in exposing local companies to the international market and opened up new opportunities for foreign exchange. It stated, “In the year 2013, 13 of such outings were spearheaded by the council. A total number of 126 companies, mainly Small and Medium Enterprises, benefited. On-the-spot sales and orders generated by these companies amounted to $627,108.23 and $3,716,920.51, respectively. “Executed order as of the end of February 2014 that was reported to NEPC was $763,247.85. It is also on recorded that made-in-Nigeria products, especially in the West African sub-region market, elicited great demand.” Awolowo said despite challenges in agricultural yield and the security issues in the northern part of the country, there were strong indications that the value of non-oil exports at the end of 2014 would be higher than the previous year’s. “This is the second quarter, the year can be better and we feel we can do better with a little above the result we have in 2013,” he added. Awolowo noted that the rebased Gross Domestic Product of the country had increased the confidence of other countries in the Nigerian economy. “On the industry, there is an effect of the rebased GDP and we are using that as a wake-up call that we must export more. We must keep up with the Nigerian Industrial Revolution Policy by showing that we export processed goods so that we can add value and create jobs. It is a positive thing for Nigeria and we have the population to back it up,” he added. Awolowo, however, expressed fears that the Export Expansion Grant might affect the performance of local manufacturers and consequently the export figure. The Director-General, Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Mr. Muda Yusuf, also said that with the productivity challenges plaguing the country, it would be difficult for the non-oil sector to make significant impact on the economy despite its growth rate. He said, “The economy has very serious productivity challenges and as long as we have these problems, especially by enterprises and those that are in the real sector of the economy, it is difficult to make any significant impact in the non-oil sector. “Currently, the bulk of what we export is primary products and that cannot give us much value as an economy. When you export something on which you have added value but because of productivity challenges, it is difficult to produce anything competitively; therefore, we are not making the kind of mark we should make in the non-oil export sector. “Even within the oil sector, we are not supposed to be exporting just crude oil; that is a problem for Nigeria as an oil producing country.” According to Yusuf, as long as the productivity level remains low, the country cannot be competitive. He added that lack of basic infrastructure, high production costs, bureaucracy and high cost of funds remained major problems for the non-oil export. He said, “How can we produce for export with those conditions, or with a manufacturer using diesel in his factory? We need to address productivity issues in the real sector, and then, the government should be more serious in creating value addition even in the oil sector. “It is bad that we are still exporting crude and importing refined products when we should be exporting refined and petrochemical products from our plants where we will make more money than crude oil itself.” The President, Nigerian Association of Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture, Alhaji Mohammed Abubakar, also said there was a need for the country to align with global trend to enhance its competitiveness by re-focusing and re- strategising on productivity. “To achieve this feat of boosting non-oil exports in the country, with a view to making the sector vibrant and competitive in terms of exportable products and revenue generation, the government must be ready to demonstrate the political will by ensuring the provision of the desired enabling environment, including, of course, adequate infrastructure and incentives to encourage the production of quality goods and services in Nigeria,” he said. http://www.punchng.com/business/financial-punch/nigeria-adds-11-non-oil-products-to-export-list/ |
