isnt the Telcom industry a good yardstick to measure us already and correct the false believe? Dangote is d world's richest blackman.I guess his products are being consumed by people from planet pluto? D banking halls are just a shadow of beehive of activities? Our markets are always deserted?Konga,jumia are being patronised by politicians?infact,no nigerian pol.office holder patronises dos outlets when Dubai is there.The list goes on and on,and am sure sane minds can add to these non-rhetorical questions.Truthfully,we are not where we should be but,i dnt undastand what the Whites stand to gain peddling such perceived lies,for me,i cn say that more than 80% of nigerians live on more than 2dollars per day(ask warri,portharcourt pple d cost of transport a day alone,yet motorists are nt complaining of the soaring prices)we may nt be living in the best of conditions where electricity,quality edu is absent,housing deficits,bad roads,subpar health centres are all absent but,we live on more than 1 dollar per day

Everyday,we hear of Nigerians not being able to afford 1 dollar per day and i looked critically to see what their prejudice is based upon only to know that it is a general norm to ridicule we,'NIGERIANS' .To be candid,we are not any closer to our potentials as a nation even when we only birthed 1999(understand nah) but,the inner and outer media are not helping matters too.For example,i have never heard MTN,AIRTEL,GLO,ETISALAT and other players in the telco ever complaining of low patronage(#100 R.card=$0.60) nt to talk of d android,blackberry users,Get that? over 80% nigerians are connected to the mobile world,how do they maintain the gadgets nt forgetting those with PC's too

Jonathan won’t
contest 2015 poll –
Prophet Tibetan A Lagos-based clergyman,
Prophet Marcus Tibetan has said
that President Jonathan would
not contest the 2015
presidential poll. He told reporters in Lagos while
unfolding his predictions for
2014, that some powerful forces
in the country would conspire to
force the president not to seek
a second term. On the outcome of the poll,
Tibetan said, “PDP will win but
not with Jonathan. PDP has no
trouble within it. Jonathan will
not contest. God told me that
the generals have concluded on Jonathan.” He urged former governor of
Ogun State, Otunba Gbenga
Daniel to pray hard to avoid
being jailed for corrupt
practices, just as he asked his
counterpart in Oyo State, Otunba Adebayo Alao-Akala to
watch against paralysis being
visited upon him. Tibetan also called on Governor
Chibuike Amaechi to pray against
premature death as the country
approaches 2015, saying the
forces that took Marshall Harry
out might do the same to him. He also predicted that the Super
Eagles would reach the semi-
finals at next year’s FIFA World
Cup, but prayed that nothing
negative would happen to the
handler of the team, Mr Stephen Keshi, in the build up to the
competition. “We are going to make a lot of
achievements in sports. We will
do well at the World Cup, if they
[those in authority] should allow
[Stephen] Keshi to perform his
duty. But my prayer is that Keshi
should not drop dead before
that time. If nothing happens to
him, we will reach the semi-
finals,” he said.source:www.osundefender.org/?p=139259

ASUU Breaking: Federal University of
Technology Owerri Sacks Entire Teaching
Staff The Senate of the Federal University of
Technology Owerri (FUTO) has sacked all
academic staff on its payroll with immediate
effect on December 2, 2013, Monday, for
failure to return to classrooms. This has been confirmed by Mr. Chike Ezenwa, the
Public Relations Officers (PRO) of the institution, in a
telephone conversation with the Nigerian Tribune in
Owerri. According to him, the senate of the university had
declared all the positions of academic staff in the
institution, adding that they would be advertised
starting from December 2, 2013, Monday. The PRO further explained that the senate council had
already compiled the list of vacant positions in the
school, adding that who were willing to resume would
be adequately protected. As concerns resuming the teaching process, the
following press release was issued at FUTO: The Senate of the Federal University of Technology,
Owerri at its 375th Extraordinary meeting held on
Monday, December 2, 2013 considered the directive
of the Federal Government on resumption of duty
by Academic Staff in Federal Universities and decided
that academic activities in the University should resume immediately for the conclusion of the
2012/2013 Rain Semester. Consequently all students of the University are
required to return to campus between Monday
December 2, and Friday December 8, 2013 while Rain
Semester Examinations commence on Monday
December 9, 2013 and end on Saturday December
21, 2013. Accordingly, all academic staff are required to
proceed immediately to their respective
Departments to sign in for resumption of duty not
later than Wednesday December 4, 2013. Signed: Orje Ishegh-Nor Registrar/Secretary to the Senate However, the FUTO branch of ASUU said any attempt
to break their ranks would be strongly resisted by
their members. The Monday’s communiqué urged
members to ignore the resumption notice by FUTO
management, adding that the branch would not
engage in any academic activities until the Federal Government committed itself to implementing the
ASUU-FGN agreement www.informationng.com/2013/12/ASUU-breaking-federal-university-of-technology-owerri-sacks-entire-teaching-staff.html

mess off you nit.wit

why display your ignorance here when u could have kept it to ur miserable self

Pals,another face-off that could usurp the previous ones looms.A labour analyst just aired his views on ADABA 88.9FM IN ONDO STATE on the latest ASUU demands and he said the FG will never pay their salary arrears owing to the fact that an industrial act has stipulated that any strike action that exceeds 3 months should be Pay-free,and hereincase,the ASUU strike has exceeded that.what do u think will now happen?

thisisayus: Are u pple studying spanish? How one earth did u understand wot he wrote? #Funaab #IrepTasued

Have u forgotten dis 'WESTERN EDUCATION IS SINFUL?'

bode15:
I hope the latter part of your post is true and correct cos I don't think I am ready for school

Well,Trust is a choice

An ASUU member from OAU has just hinted me that the strike is as good as being over but the meeting with the president tomorrow is as a result of their promise to bring back their resolve to the state house after the collation of views from their member unis.He finally said by tuesday schools should be opened for business but expressed pessimism at any chance of OAU resuming this year #Dr Ogunfowokan,chemistry dept,OAU

Am sure the president will set up a standing and a sitting committee to look into the issue and probably another white-paper committee to oversee the work of the committees.#just watch

IMO,ASUU should be proscribed. I dnt have issues with people forming a peaceful assembly to forward their intents but,when such unity might lead to anarchy and pique malapropisms,the GOVT MAY JUST HAVE TO DO A MARGARET-THATCHER

Afunkybaby: @jayjam i am an oau student, next year tins, i am so sad, so so sad

So am i,just chill i only know of one thing which is GRADUATION

@bhayur2103 and afunkybabe,the rumour may be true afterall after an impeccable source told me that the NUGA will last 3wks after Resumption and another 5wks for maintenance of dilapidating infrastructures.IMO,there will be a fierce resistance from the students community because we in IFE are currently lagging behind in the comity of schools no thanks to the poor calendar characterised by maladministration by the Omole led admin.The fiasco the NUGA could suffer may not be unconnected to the fact that most participating schools would view the games as secondary for now having kept the students at home for a longer period and the students on their parts would have lost interest for the games except the SOCIAL-HAPPY ONES

Dr Faleye of the English dept,OAU has this to say "I don't know about the meeting and that is because i don't want to give out false info.All you need do is just get a radioset or stick to the dailies to get the authentic info" from this i could fathom that its nt all the lecturers that knows whats going on in ASUU national body or its just that they've been authorised to remain coy as regards letting out of such info

I just had a phone conversation with Dr jaiyeola of maths dept and Dr famuyiwa of chemistry dept.both of OAU.While Dr famuyiwa claims not to be sure,Dr jaiyeola said he is also not sure but that the OAU ASUU BRANCH MEETING WILL HOLD AN EMERGENCY ONE ON MONDAY TO DELIBERATE ON PERHAPS,THE OUTCOME OF TODAY'S MEETING OR AS OTHERWISE DECIDED #Amseriousaboutit

Bus sex: Night travel’s
fringe benefit NOVEMBER 9, 2013 BY ADEMOLA
OLONILUA 42 Comments Night travel may be fraught with a lot of dangers in Nigeria where highways are not in the best condition and robbers use
the state of the roads as an opportunity to ambush interstate commercial vehicles. But in spite of these inherent dangers, there seems to be no
reduction in the number of people who choose to go on journeys in the night. Investigation by Saturday PUNCH showed that the attraction of some of the passengers to the night travel was more bizarre as much as it was almost unbelievable. When Saturday PUNCH visited some parks to investigate, it found out passengers preferred night travels for different reasons. At Jibowu, an area of Lagos where luxury buses load passengers to the Eastern part of the country, Chidioke Ekezie, a motorboy attached to a bus of one of the popular transport operators in Lagos, gave an insight into life on night buses, which he explained could be very vibrant and “interesting” as a result of the duration of the journeys. “There has never been a time that those taking night journey reduced. The thing is that a lot of people just like travelling at that time simply because it is traffic-free,” Ekezie said. Asked to elaborate on the “interesting” part of the journey, which he had earlier mentioned, the motorboy said, “A lot of people make new friends and many young people
who board the buses as strangers become couples during the journey.” When asked whether there is any sexual activity during these journeys, Ekezie smiled mischievously and said, “It is a known fact that it happens. Some people are just quite stupid. Most couples wait till we get to our designated bus stops to have sex. “For instance, on a journey from Onitsha to Lagos, the bus sometimes leaves at about 10pm and later stops at Benin so that the passengers can stretch their legs, buy refreshments and ease themselves. This takes a long time. “I have seen a lot of passengers get down and go around a corner to have sex. It happens. I have also seen some passengers have sex in the bus while others are off the bus. When this happens, it is a problem for the man and woman involved. We don’t condone such acts in the bus. “We could decide to drop the involved passengers there and leave because it is very silly for people to have sex in the bus.” A 23-year-old student, who preferred to give just his first name, Chukwueloka, was booked on one of the luxury buses to his home state of Imo, when our correspondent visited the park. He said he always took night buses anytime he went home. “Night buses are interesting. A
lot of things happen there,” he declared, when our correspondent had a chat with
him on why he favoured night travel that much. A lot of things like what? He went into a narration. “There was a time I went to Yenagoa (Bayelsa State capital) in 2005. I boarded the bus at Mazamaza and got a seat beside a fair lady who was also going to Bayelsa. The journey was at least seven hours and we took off around 6pm. “I had been chatting with the lady since we left Lagos. About four hours into the journey, she yawned and said she was sleepy. She rested her head on my shoulder and there was no way she could be comfortable if my arm did not go around her shoulders. “My arm brushed her breast mistakenly and she did nothing.
It turned out that by her body language as the journey went on, she wanted something. I had heard about such things happening on buses but I did not immediately understand her intention. “She later made it clear when her hand went to my zippers.” Chukwueloka laughed as he narrated this unusual escapade. He said he would never forget it for the rest of his life. “I just wanted to experience it. She sat on my lap and other passengers were asleep in the bus. It was also dark,” he said. Having a sexual encounter with a complete stranger may be a no-no for many people but Chukwueloka told Saturday PUNCH he used protection. At Oshodi, another part of Lagos, where luxury buses load to the Eastern part of the country, Saturday PUNCH spoke with some passengers to find out if any of them had a similar story to tell. Jane Akuegbu, a student of the Cross River University of Technology, Calabar, said the only reason she liked taking night buses is the peace and quiet that she experiences during the journey. “I am lucky because even though some people say night buses get robbed, I have not experienced that before,” she said. When the issue of sexual activities in buses came up, she said she had heard about it but had not seen one happen on any of the buses she took to the southern part of the country. She, however, narrated an incident involving a bus her aunty once boarded to Abia State. Akuegbu said, “My aunty boarded a luxury bus from Jibowu. The last bus stop was at Aba and a man came out of the bus complaining that his wallet, his wrist watch and the handbag containing his laptop had been stolen. “My aunty said when the young man explained what happened, every other passenger of the bus made jest of him. What happened was that when all other passengers in the bus were asleep, he made sexual advances at the lady he sat with. “They started handling each other even though they were strangers when they boarded the bus. The lady later offered that the man should suck her breast. The lady must have rubbed a sleeping portion on her breast because the man slept off afterwards. “The lady stole all his belongings and disembarked from the bus before it got to the last bus stop.” A passenger, Sola Olaogun, expressed his disgust about the subject when he was approached on the issue of sexual activities in buses. “What would this world turn to? How can you do that kind of thing with someone you don’t know at all? I was so disgusted when I saw a young man and a lady “fingering” each other in a bus I boarded to Owerri (Imo State capital) the other day. May God deliver
young men who do things like that,” he said. ‘Fingering’ is a coined word for handling in Nigeria. A motorboy gave his ‘expert’ opinion on the issue. Felix Uche, who has been accompanying luxury buses on journeys to the eastern part of the country for five years, said buses heading to Uyo and Calabar are noted for such activities. “It is real. Passengers have sex in the buses. Even when our buses used to go to Uyo, we noticed such acts and that is why we decided to stop going there,” he said. A colleague of his, Kalu Ejiofor, gave his own version of the issue. He said, “There was a time a lady came to the park in Anambra to board our bus. It turned out that her fare was not enough so a young man offered to help complete it. “During the journey to Lagos, they obviously became friends. When the bus got to Benin, passengers got down from the bus. A passenger got back in the bus and noticed that same lady and the man were having sex in the dark at the back of the bus. “He alerted us. We really insulted and embarrassed both of them. They are not supposed to be doing such a thing in a public bus because I personally don’t think it is decent.” Ikenna Okafor, who works for another company told Saturday PUNCH that his years of working as a motorboy had taught him that some Nigerians are perverts. Okafor said, “A lady came from Benin Republic to Nigeria. The stress of the journey must have made her tired as she slept off. A man sitting next to the girl began to “finger” her as she slept. He was molesting her! It was another passenger who was awake that noticed the whole thing. “He was aware that the two of them did not come together
and such a thing was happening. It was then he alerted me. We woke the lady up and informed her about what happened. It was so surprising that the girl was too tired that she did not even know.” Evans, an employee of a transport company, who preferred to keep his company’s name off record, said no transport company would encourage such acts. He said even though sex on night buses does happen on long journeys, a well organised company would never condone such acts. “I have seen cases of people having sex outside the bus. Most times when the bus stops to rest, I have seen passengers go outside the bus to have sex while others go to
ease themselves or stretch their legs,” Evans said. However, a luxury bus driver, who identified himself simply as Zona, said that he was less concerned about whatever goes on inside the bus while he
is driving. “My only concern is the safety of the passengers,” he said. He said government should work on the bad roads in the country to make it fit for night travel. Zona explained that he had encountered more than ten robbery attacks in his seven years of driving business. Zona stated, “I have been a bus driver for seven years. I drive during the day and night.
On some of my night journeys, I notice that robbers attack mostly around the bad portion of the highway. The roads are terrible with many potholes.” Corroborating Zona’s claims, Uche, the motorboy, who had spoken with Saturday PUNCH earlier, said a female friend of his was once raped and robbed when she came to visit him. Uche said, “There has been series of robberies on the Abuja highway and the worst part of it is that the robbers are notorious for raping female passengers too. I had a female friend that came to visit me. When she was travelling back on the Abuja road, she encountered armed robbers and they raped her. Just last week, they robbed one of our buses,” Uche said. “The bad road is what makes it easy to perpetrate these crimes because buses are forced to slow down in such bad spots. We encounter armed robbers on our journeys sometimes but it has reduced. But the government right now should be aware that Abuja road is very unsafe. Over the years, there have been several campaigns against night travels. The reasons given by the Federal Road Safety Commission are that most of the roads are not well illuminated and the poor state of most of Nigeria’s highways causes avoidable accidents. But while night travel may have its downside, it seems some passengers will always favour it because of the different attractions it holds for them. In 2011, the Federal Road Safety Corps said it had no constitutional power to ban night travel, despite the high incidence of fatal accidents and robbery attacks being experienced by people undertaking such trips source:punchng.com
