German automaker BMW’s circular office in Midrand, Johannesburg, won a 5-star rating for its environmentally friendly features.

BMW, which also owns Mini and Rolls-Royce, moved into its South African headquarters in Midrand in 2015.

The iconic building is located next to Pretoria Main Road and off the N1 Highway. It is close to Grand Central Airport and the Midrand stop on the Gautrain.

About 600 associates work in the building, with diverse fields including marketing, human resources, business strategy, and example sales for the BMW brand, Mini and BMW Motorcycle.

The main building in Midrand is part of an “open campus,” which also includes the offices of the Financial Services section and the on-site training centre.

The group’s website states, “Our uniquely designed atrium garden invites you to take a moment of relaxation and reload your energy. “

The Green Building Council of South Africa awarded the building a 5-star rating in 2015 for its environmentally friendly features.

The rating made BMW South Africa the first automotive company in South Africa to receive the rating.

The rating considered the indoor environment quality, energy, transport, water, materials, land use, ecology, emissions, and innovations.

Variables that added to Midrand HQ’s GBCSA 5-star rating included:

Glass and solar-controlled louvres installed within the internal façade of the building, enabling enhanced daylight and thermal comfort.

90% of the office’s usable area now has an external view, providing good levels of daylight for occupants.

The peak electrical demand on the building was reduced by 30%, which included an extensive use of LED lighting throughout the building.

5% of the parking bays are now dedicated to alternative fuel and hybrid vehicles, while 5% are reserved for motorbikes, mopeds and scooters.

Water-efficient sanitary fittings were installed throughout the building.

Water meters were installed for all major water uses and connected to a Building Management System to support proper facility management of water consumption.

A dedicated storage area was provided for waste recycling,

All topsoil impacted by the construction was separated and protected from degradation, erosion, or mixing with fill or waste, and it still remains onsite.

In addition to its Midrand headquarters, BMW has a manufacturing plant in Rosslyn, Pretoria, and an IT hub in Menlyn, Pretoria.

Enugu traders who stored beans for appreciation in the first quarter of this year are counting their losses following the crash in the prices of the essential commodity.

According to them, a bag of 100kg of beans they purchased for around N160,000 last year now sells at N140,000 in some markets.

Mrs Onyinye Ozioko sells beans at the New Market in Enugu. She said this year was the worst ever in her business.

In her words, “I stored 10 bags of 50kg beans. In the past years, the profits could be around 60% or more. I never thought about losses at all. Today, I am losing a lot per bag, and it is still counting. And this does not include the cost of transportation.”

Stephen Ogbu sells food items at Ogbete Main Market, Enugu. According to him, the crash in the price of beans is affecting his business adversely.

Quoting him, “Some of us borrowed to invest in bean storage. But look at where we have landed ourselves! I retail my own at huge losses. The problem with beans is that they can’t be stored beyond one year; otherwise, they will perish. This is the first time this kind of thing has happened in recent years.”

He attributed the fall to the flooding of beans from the North to eastern markets “rather prematurely”.

In his words, “While we are still planting due to delayed rainfalls in this part of the country, some parts of the North are already harvesting beans. The implication is that they began to supply their products when we were still planting. Under normal circumstances, we should be experiencing food shortages in the eastern parts of this country. We should be bringing our stored beans to the market to make gains. But the reverse is the case. Fresh beans flood the market while our stocked ones are underpriced.”

He said many were being forced to sell off to avoid more losses. “If you don’t sell, be ready to consume your beans or give them as charity. Very soon, they will be attacked by weevils.”

Dr Paulinus Eze is an economist. He called for investments in storage facilities in Enugu State and the entire eastern region. For him, “This is where governments should play key roles. If there were storage facilities, these perishable commodities would have been preserved further. The investors are losing because the longer the delay, the more losses they incur.

“Government agencies could also buy back from the investors at prices commensurate with what they invested. It is a special intervention in a fragile economy to encourage farmers and investors, as the case may be. If traders are discouraged from investing, farmers will suffer. The multiplier effect will be job losses and food insecurity.”

Igboid:
Good development.

Abuloma people are not Ijaw too.
These people like Abua are proto Ibibiod people, just like Andoni.

Ijaw only succeeded in claiming these people for a while ( we all knew it wasn't going to last), because the Annang, Ibibios and Efik were too petty, too blind to see the big picture, too myopic to unite into one single mega ethnic group they truly are.

If they had succeeded in doing this, then they would have successfully pulled Abuloma (Obulom) Abua, Ogbia and Andoni into this mega group.

Because ethnically speaking, these groups are for all intents and purposes,proto Ibibiod people who developed riverine culture having migrated to and live in the riverine region as opposed to Ibibio and Annang that stayed on land.

Now that opportunity is lost because these proto Ibibiod people now see themselves as independent groups.

Nigerians don't know it, but GEJ and his Ogbia people, linguistically and ancestrally are more related to the Ibibios than to any Izon man screaming Aswana up and down.

Things My Eyes Saw In Dubai (Part One)

If any of your sister tell you she is going to Dubai ensure to vet her thoroughly, also; if a lady or any friend of her who lives there and is flashing luxury is the one taking her to Dubai just know your sister is going to suffer there and i will explain;

Most of these vvomen that are already in Dubai get paid by rich arab men to traffik girls to Dubai for them, most times through their personal assistants and the vvoman or girl will fly down to Nigeria to look for who to deceive claiming she wants to help her leave Nigeria and the jakpa syndrome is killing many especially our youths and anyone that gets the opportunity of being taken out of Nigeria doesn't think twice about the offer and jumps on it without thinking or asking questions, believe indiscov;

When she succeeds in taking her to Dubai next is to link her up with the Arab man's personal assistant who will now expose her to luxury and then state their demands and if she refuses they will threaten her to pay back all they spent, Dubai is not like Nigeria and if she gets put in closed doors it's the end of road for her; she will be made a segx slave; before i dive into the full details, pay attention.

Most Nigerian girls and other African vvomen living in Dubai are doing slavery, majority of them are trafficked to that country, 95% of Nigerian girls in Dubai are doing prvstittvtion and worse is the horrible things they do to earn crumbs.

Most arab rich men are perverts, most them have dirty fantasies and i will explain,

The personal assistant to the rich Arab will spend lavishly on her by taking her out, she will shop anything she likes and at the end of the day she'll return and prepare herself for the arab man,

Most times she will be meeting one arab man whole sometimes she will meet up to 5 arab men and they will all take turns on her, some of the arabs will insert different objects into her kpekus, flog her, tie her up, gag her, all of them will ejaaaculate into her mouth, some will pipe her without rubbers, they mostly pooop 💩 into her mouth and force her to eat it and ofcourse what do you expect after they have spent 5,000 to 20,000 dollars on you to afford you all those expensive clothes and luxuries.

Some of the arab men will bring out their dog or lion and ask her to have segx with it, some of them will just film her and sell the video to dark webs where other rich men having fun will buy the video and watch it, the girl will be piped by the dog,

She will sus-ck the dog's preeq and do anything they asked with the dog and whenever they're done having fun they will leave and ask their assistants to see her then clean the mess, don't doubt indiscov this is fact, i have witnessed one myself through one of my friend who is from Dubai the last time i visited Dubai for my holiday, i was shocked.

Part 2 of things my eyes saw in Dubai will drop tomorrow so stay tuned, Kindly follow Indiscov for more and don't forget to share this post to create awareness for those our Nigerian sisters planning to relocate to Dubai, they're going there for prvstittvtion, there's no good paying job there.

The only jobs you can do there is menial jobs, odd jobs that comes with obscene stress and you will earn less, they share bed space there unlike in Europe that you rent apartment and live only you, in Dubai up to 10 people stays in the same apartment and they share bed space, it's more like prison; this is why some of my clients that came to me for visa if any of them mentions Dubai i just tell them we don't do Visa to Dubai not because we don't but i can't send anyone's child to that country.

Don't allow any of your sister, daughter or niece to go to that country, anything Arab country isn't advisable because she is going there to suffer and believe me at the end of the day she may go into aashawo work fully, on the next part of this expository i am going to throw more light to things i saw and what is happening there.

Watch out for part2
Sermons over!

GistMedia0:
An eyewitness has gone viral after capturing a surprising scene at an NYSC orientation camp: an endless queue of corps members waiting for nothing but pap and akara.

In a video that has since sparked debates on social media, dozens of young corps members are seen lined up, all eager to grab a bite of the iconic Nigerian breakfast combo. The eyewitness, who filmed the moment, could hardly contain his shock, exclaiming:

“Just for pap and akara! This queue no dey end o!” Is the pap and akara made of gold?

The video has gone viral, attracting mixed reactions from viewers. While some users sympathize with the corps members, joking that pap and akara is too irresistible to pass up, others point out the logistical challenges that NYSC camps face, especially when it comes to feeding large numbers of youth at once.

The long queue seems to symbolize not only the hunger for food but also the difficulties of daily life in the camp. For many, the ritual of queuing for breakfast has become a hallmark of the NYSC experience, with some taking to social media to share their own stories of similar long lines.

dettolgel:
It is rampant in the east. They are built on the following premise: a false belief that it brings development much faster than having just one community. Forgetting that allocation is done on local government level.
Two everyone wants power as such the more the community is split the easier it is for those power hungry vermins to get their ego massage.

However, what they failed to understand is that this is the same classic method the British used to weaken Africa by splitting people of the same origin into smaller units. Giving them the false idea that they are different so instead of being one big force to reckon with they are spread thin, into smaller and easy to manipulate unit. Just the way Kano emirate was split for political reasons. I really don't know the day Igbo people will learn.

The price of a 50kg bag of rice has dropped to N58,000 in some parts of Nigeria, particularly around remote areas, amid imports from the Republic of Benin, a report by S&P Global has said.

The report said that the West African parboiled rice market has slumped to a near two-year low as supplies flood into regional markets following India’s removal of export duties on parboiled rice.

A 50kg bag of rice has dropped from N80,000 to N58,000 as a result of the influx of the commodity to neighbouring Benin Republic, from where it enters Nigeria.

Platts, part of S&P Global Commodity, reports that the influx of lower-priced rice from India has filled warehouses to capacity in Benin, according to market participants.

Between September and December, India was said to have exported approximately 2.11 million metric tonnes of parboiled rice to West Africa, up sharply from 720,000 metric tonnes in the same period of 2023.

According to the Agricultural and Processed Food Products Export Development Authority, in 2024 as a whole, India exported 5.35 million metric tonnes of parboiled rice to West Africa, up from 3.9 million metric tonnes in 2023.

Commenting, a trader based in Togo said the current situation in almost every region of West Africa is the same, quiet and bearish.

As Nigeria, the largest rice market for Benin, continues to illegally import rice from Benin, both local and imported rice prices in Nigeria have plummeted over the past two weeks.

It was said that the price for a 50kg local rice had dropped from N80,000 or N90,000 to N60,000, while Indian imported rice prices have dropped to N80,000.

“Despite the price decline, demand has not risen correspondingly. With prices continuing to slide daily, buyers are adopting a cautious approach, waiting for stabilisation before making purchases,” the report said.

A trader based in Benin said demand was only likely to increase once the Christmas season comes into focus around September.

Our correspondent reports that Nigeria is the major consumer of rice imported into the Benin Republic.

In border communities in Ogun, the staple sells at prices below N50,000 due to the proximity of their communities to the Benin Republic.

Despite the ban on the importation of rice, the commodity remains the most smuggled product, even as the Nigerian Customs Service has sleepless nights battling rice smugglers.

In a letter dripping with biting sarcasm, Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan offered what could be described as a profuse “apology” for the “grievous crime” of maintaining dignity and self-respect in the Senate President’s presence.

This is following the controversy between the suspended Senator representing PDP, Kogi Central, Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, and the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, over allegations of sexual harassment, Sen. Natasha has issued a sarcastic and satirical apology to Akpabio, reigniting discussions about gender dynamics and power struggles within Nigeria’s legislative chambers

RedboneSmith:
Which one is fanatically in this matter? There is no need for superfulous and dramatic adverbs. I do not feel any particular attachment to Afigbo or any historian for that matter (Igbo or no-Igbo), and I certainly do not agree with all his ideas and theories - the same way I don't agree with all the theories and ideas of practically all historians that I have read their work.

I have however followed Afigbo's career closely and have read virtually everything he has published and even have transcriptions of most of his lectures, and what you just said doesn't sound like anything he has published, which is why my first inclination is to doubt you. If however you have a citation that could be checked out and can post it here, that would be nice.

And by the way, as a "history veteran" and someone with "vast knowledge of Nigerian history", I can see that the person you're responding to his comment made the ridiculous claim that it was Chinua Achebe who christened the Ìgbò people with the name "Ìgbò", changing the name from "Ibo". A completely false claim, but in all your "knowedge" you've made no attempt to correct him, but have actually piled on to continue labelling the Igbo people with the European corruption "Ibo". Interesting. Wonder why. 🤔
