24) The world’s tallest waterfall
Waterfalls are formed when the soft rock of a riverbed erodes, leaving the hard rock to form a cliff or edge.

Some of the most amazing waterfalls include Venezuela’s Angel Falls which are the world’s tallest at 979 meters (3,200 ft) and Laos’ Khone Falls which are the world’s widest at 10,783 meters (35,376 feet).

25) Sing me a song
Rivers have been a great inspiration for many musicians. Hits about rivers include Moon River by Andy Williams (and Audrey Hepburn), River by Joni Mitchel, Proud Mary by CCR, Take Me To the River by Al Green and Cry Me A River by Justin Timberlake.

21. The holy river.
Originating in the Himalayas and ending in West Bengal, the Ganges River supplies freshwater to over 500 million people.

The river is also one of the holiest sites in Hinduism with religious bathing rituals and funerals taking place on its banks every day. To Hindus, the river is known as “Mother Ganges”.

22) The notorious killer rapids
The Inga rapids of the Congo River are the most dangerous and deadliest rapids in the world. In 2011, kayaker Steve Fisher and a crew of world-class kayakers were the first to successfully traverse the Class VII rapids.

23) Liquid rainbow
The Colombian river, Cano Cristales, might be the most eye-catching river in the world. Known as the “River of Five Colors” during different times of the year the river can be yellow, green, blue, black and red.

What causes these striking hues? Different varieties of algae and sea plants.

19). A lot of people think that rivers always flow south, but 4 of the 10 longest rivers in the world flow north.

20). World Rivers have been a great source of trade and transport throughout human history.

16) Bangladesh has the highest number of rivers (about 700) and is known as the 'land of rivers'. Some major Rivers of Bangladesh are: Brahmaputra, Ganges, Suma, Atrai, Raidak, Mahananda, Teesta, Karnaphuli, Meghna and Bangshi among others.

17) The Congo River -- formerly called the Zaire River -- is Africa's most powerful river and the second most voluminous river in the world with a discharge of 1,500,000 cubic feet of water per second.

18) Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia is the largest country in the world with no rivers at 830,000 square miles.

12) Rivers and lakes are a vital source of freshwater for life on Earth. But did you know they hold less than 1% of the world’s water? Most (over 99%, in fact) is in the salty ocean or frozen in our polar ice caps. That’s why it’s super important that we protect our rivers and look after the freshwater our planet provides.

13) Sadly, our rivers and waterways are being polluted by chemicals, sewage and household waste, which can cause serious harm to animals – and humans, too. In fact, an estimated 300-400 million tonnes of waste is thought to pollute our rivers and seas every year!

14) The good news is that people around the world are working hard to keep our rivers and fresh water supplies clean and safe. And you can help, too! Be sure to reuse and recycle whenever you can, and bin rubbish responsibly! And you can help save water, too – be sure to turn off the tap when brushing your teeth, and why not opt for a short shower over a long bath?

15) Did you know there’s a day dedicated to our planet’s wonderful waterways? Every September, millions of people from more than 70 countries celebrate World Rivers Day. This global event raises awareness of the importance of rivers and how we can best protect them for years to come!

Not all rivers flow overland – ‘subterranean rivers‘ run secretly beneath the surface! This is sometimes because of human engineering. Ever heard of London’s ‘lost rivers‘? These are streams of the River Thames and River Lea that were built over as the city grew.

9) Subterranean rivers can also exist naturally. In the Philippines for example, the Puerto Princesa Underground River flows beneath a mountain for five miles, before finally emptying into the South China Sea. Cool, eh?

10) It’s not just rivers themselves which are fascinating – it’s the wonderful wildlife that lives in them, too! Rivers provide a home for all kinds of creatures, including insects, amphibians, birds, reptiles, mammals and over 10,000 species of fish!

11) Some of the most fascinating river creatures include Amazon river dolphins (which have pink skin!), electric eels (which stun prey and predators with powerful electric shocks!), freshwater stingrays (which can grow to an enormous 5 metres!) and freshwater turtles, which have been around for 200 million years!

5) As rivers flow their course across the land, they form lots of fascinating geographic features, such as amazing mountain valleys, canyons, lakes and, of course, wonderful waterfalls!

6) Some record-breaking waterfalls formed by our planet’s rivers include…

Angel Falls, Venezuela – the world’s highest waterfall at a staggering 979m tall!

Khone Falls, Laos – the widest waterfall, measuring an incredible 10,783m!

Inga Falls, Democratic Republic of the Congo – the world’s largest waterfall, if we’re talking about the amount of water. Every second, 25,768 cubic metres plunges down the fall – that’s more than ten Olympic swimming pools!

7) Rivers can be all kinds of colours – not just blue, clear or muddy brown as you might expect! In ‘blackwater rivers’, found in swamps and wetlands, the waters look like strong black tea. And in Colombia, the aquatic plants of Caño Cristales – known as the ‘River of Five Colours‘ – make the waters flow with bright blue, red, black, yellow and green!

1) The Nile River is widely accepted as the world’s longest river. Found in north Africa, it flows through 11 different countries and stretches a whopping 6,695km – that’s as long as 65,000 football pitches!

2) Most scientists agree that the Amazon River comes in a close second, winding a huge 6,840km through the mountains and rainforests of South America!

3) That’s a very long distance, wouldn’t you agree? Well, believe it or not, in 2007 a man named Martin Strel swam the entire length of the Amazon river! To complete his amazing jungle journey, Martin swam ten hours a day for 66 days!

4) But what about the world’s deepest river? That’s the Congo River in Central Africa. Whilst its true depth remains a mystery, scientists believe the waters run at least 230m deep in parts – deep enough to submerge London’s famous clocktower, known as Big Ben, 2.5 times on top of each other!

No need of any verification now till after 2031

That video on Tinubu was posted on Facebook by a comedy skit maker, to make jest of him. But here are the screenshots of the comments.

Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu on Friday unfolded his comprehensive economic plan before the organised private sector under the aegis of the Nigerian Economic Summit Group (NESG).


The interaction, which was another opportunity for Tinubu to present his plans to another group of stakeholders just as he has been doing in various town hall meetings across the country, saw him itemise his administration’s path to economic recovery if elected in next month’s presidential election.

He noted that before economic recovery could be achieved the nation must be secured, stating that, “To achieve the economy we seek, we must resolve the pressing security issues. No nation can flourish with terrorists and kidnappers in their midst.”

In a statement from Tinubu Media Office made available to The Guardian by Tunde Rahman, the dialogue gave him (Tinubu) an opportunity to emphasise the importance of the private sector and his administration’s readiness to partner them.

He said, “My core belief is that the private sector must be the prime driver of economic progress. However, the government establishes the framework within which the private sector must operate. If that framework is sound, the private sector will flourish. If the framework is frail or incomplete, then the private sector will struggle.”


He added that his administration would immediately after getting to office, address monetary and trade reforms to effectively increase domestic production, thus serving to curb imported inflation, and to ensure better macro-economic stability by accelerating inclusive growth and job creation across Nigeria.

To achieve this, he listed principles that would guide their plans and policies; saying that the principles include how to tackle inflation, petrol subsidy, which he said has overstayed its shelf life and monetary policy.

He continued: “I do not hold to the mainstream view that all forms of inflation are best tackled by interest rate hikes and shrinking the economy. Supply induced inflation does not lend itself to this harsh medicine, just as one does not cure a headache by plucking out one’s eye.

“I do not embrace the conventional wisdom that fiscal deficits by the national government are inherently bad. All governments, especially in this era of fiat currency, run secular budget deficits. This is an inherent part of modern governance. The most powerful and wealthiest governments run deficits, as do the poorest nations.

“A budget deficit is not necessarily bad. Look at the Japanese example with high government borrowing and low inflation.”

The real issue is whether deficit spending is productive or not. Unproductive deficit spending is a compound negative. Especially if backed by excessive borrowing of foreign currency. This is not classroom economics but it is the lesson of the real economic history of nations.


“It is based on this idea that I believe we must remove the PMS subsidy immediately. It has outlived its shelf life as a public good. We will neither subsidise neighbouring countries’ fuel consumption nor allow a select few to reap windfall profits and hoard products.
“And the subsidy money will not be ‘saved’ because that means elimination from the economy. Instead, we will redirect the funds into public infrastructure, transportation, affordable housing, education and health, and strengthen the social safety net for the poorest of the poor, thus averting increased security challenges.
“Fiscal policy will be the main driver. Monetary policy is weaker and a less effective instrument. Bad monetary policy is, of course, destructive. But even good monetary policy cannot carry the load the fiscal arm can. Thus, we must steadily remove ourselves from the fiction of tying our budgets to dollar denominated oil revenues.
“This is effectively pegging our budget to a dollar standard. It is as outdated as the fuel subsidy itself. It is also restrictive and ties the economy to slow growth. Just as the common man must mentally sever the cord to the subsidy, the elite must sever the cord to this artificial fiscal restraint.”

He said his administration’s budgeting would be based on the projected spending levels needed to push real annual growth rate above 10 per cent, while reducing the unemployment rate, so that the economy could be doubled in seven years.

He noted that to cater for the economic needs of the over 200 million Nigerians, his administration would expand the manufacturing base to provide jobs, and also create affordable goods and products for the population.

He said, “For our industries to thrive, they need inputs, many of which are agriculture based. The present Administration has invested heavily in agriculture, providing loans and expanding the country’s total area of cultivated land for crops, livestock and fisheries. We will also promote vibrant commodity exchanges that will guarantee minimal pricing for produce.

“We will build on this, with a focus on using technology and expertise to accelerate growth in yields. We will deliver the critical infrastructure necessary to achieve the commodity transformations and agribusinesses to plug seamlessly into higher, more lucrative, entry points in regional and global value chains.
“Building on this foundation, we will accelerate the faithful implementation of the “Infrastructure Master Plan” by adopting proven financing structures till we deliver an acceptable stock of hard infrastructure through seaports and airports; and road, rail and water transportation linkages that can support our desired economic growth.
“Fixing the perennial problem of energy supply is a top priority. There is no version of the world where Nigeria’s ambitions for itself can be achieved without solving the problem of how to provide energy to homes and businesses across the country.
“What we need to do, going forward, is to improve the enabling environment, further decentralise transmission, and deliver cost reflective tariffs to attract more private investments in the sector.”


The former Lagos State governor said restrictions were placed on import and foreign exchange to promote industrialisation, it has instead smuggling, reduced revenues, impoverished consumers, and raised production costs for firms.

To solve this, he said his administration would improve transparency, moving toward a unified exchange rate. According to him, by relaxing stifling trade and capital control policies, domestic and foreign investors will be encouraged to invest more in the economy.
“Thus, unification of the Naira exchange, and the transparency it creates, will be a top priority of this Administration when elected,” Tinubu added.

On the major issue of unemployment in the country, Tinubu promised to focus on the creative sector, which has an opportunity to provide millions of jobs annually.
He said, “Taking the creative sector as one example of a sector that already engages millions of our youth, the sector has significant untapped potential for generating quality jobs and foreign exchange earnings for our country.

“From music to movies to fashion, when elected, our Administration will create a legal environment that can attract much-needed private investment into the sector, eliminate widespread piracy and copyrights issues, as well as support the development of quality hard infrastructure needs.”

On the first day of October,2022, the news of the death of our revered sheikh Abdulganiy Aboto was announced. it was a shock that is difficult to get over quickly. The eyes were in tears,the hearts were bleeding and the entire body was feeble. No doubt his shocking death will leave a vacuum,so difficult to fill in the realm of the muslims.
A lot has been said about his personality,more revealation are still on the way. It's even an understatement to say that his death is a disaster to all muslims, irrespective of their affiliation. The following are the uniqueness of this late sheikh.
1. He was an haafiz; he memorised the whole Quran when there was no motivation for it. He was passionate about this. Though, it's in the history that we have some early scholars that memorised the complete Quran in ilorin and environs, but amongst the new generation scholars, sheikh was the pivot upon which Quranic memorizers were produced. he has many products,who are now trainers of Quranic memorization.
2.He was a bold speaker; he delivers his lectures without fear or anger. This is evident in one of his lectures in the late 90s, when he rebuked the local authorities in ilorin on the Reinhard bonnke's crusade. He was very blunt and expressly directed his message to the appropriate authority, despite his respect for them. That action had a grievous consequences, but he was strong all through the trial.
3. He was a campaigner of tawheed : he had a juggernaut lectures on polytheism and its consequences. so much that he was admired by the salafi scholars as if they were together. Many pages that attribute themselves to Sunnah,posted prayers for him,the likes of the high handed dawah link. The importance of this, can not be overemphasized, as the bedrock of Islam is taoheed, even in our contemporary world where shirk has become the order of the day,he was steadfast on abolishing shirk and the likes
4.He was full of contentment: you will never meet him in any gathering seeking for money, unlike some alfas who have taken begging as their second nature. up till his death, how many building in ilorin can we ascribe to him? I'm not sure of any, this is an height of piety. In this contemporary world, where very young alfas commit all sorts of attrocities in the name of "hitting the world big"
5. Alfa Aboto doesn't use his lecture to settle individual difference. he will not attack any scholar simply because they have personal issue. He speaks the truth all the times, irrespective of the status of the subject. NO ESI ORO! He only face his daawah.
6. He lectures with demonstration to catch rapt attention of his audience.This is likely to be a unique attribute of his lecture,no one would want to contest.
7. He doesn't know how to be economical with the truth. This is part of the attributes that some sufi adherent didn't understand about him. He says things as he understands, without seeking for favour. come to think of this, have you ever seen Alfa Aboto philandering with the musicians and artists? that is to tell you how blunt he was about truth.
8. He is a strict preacher when it comes to pronounciation of Quranic verses, he will never allow his ajanasi to pronounce Quran wrongly, infact, he can sleep on it! He doesn't joke with correct pronunciation.
9.He's one of the scholars that doesn't wine and dine with politicians, he doesn't politicize his lecture. he doesn't monetise his preaching.
10. Vast in history as it relates to origin of adabiyya , always eager and proud to narrate it. He's one of the few scholars that narrates adabiyya chronicles with references.
There are many more,
"He came,he saw and he conquered".
Oh Allah, forgive Alfa Abdulganiy Dhu-Nurein Aboto all his sins, widen his grave and admit him to jannah.
