Ghana nose she has. This bulby nose structure, negligible bridge, flat across the bottom, is creeping into the Nigeria gene pool, due probably to Nigerians increasingly marrying none Nigerians.

The way Nigeria's Military act towards these terrorists is similar to the way Nigerians act towards Ghanians. Both show love to groups that really hate them and don't reciprocate the love. For example, when Nigeria military attack these errorists, they kill only a miserable number of them - two, three , ten and let the rest escape with gunshot wounds. Yet when these Terrorists attack Nigeria military, they kill a healthy amount - thirty, eighty, hundred, beheading those captured. No Nigeria soldier is left to escape with gunshot wounds.

Nigeria's heroes are often vulnerable while the villains refuse to die. See how long it took Sheku upon all our military efforts.

The Troll House set up to wreck Nigeria seem to posses or are able to utilise 500 to 1000 Something ( I don't know what to call it) perhaps individuals, Bots, multiple accounts, combination of all these, I don't know. However, LIKE's, in the regions of 50 to 250, is a sign of thire presence. This, usually on topics they believe can sow the most division or is manipulatable enough to achieve same. Often topics that favour smokes and mirrors environment but when looked at with only a little reasoning is far from what they paint. it's as if they refuse to learn that Nigerians are not as daft as they believe.

PS

If you don't understand the above, it's probably because it's not ment for you. Those for whom it concerns understand perfectly.

Recording culture is also like keeping To-Do notes. It helps organisation. What happened to all the noise about Ranching? Last year the majority of us agreed that we needed to end finally these nomadic cow herding droves. This year we forgot all about that. Already we have forgotten the floods and consiquently the urgency of investing in preventative measures. We always react noisly in Nigeria because we are not organised. Now all are up in arms and working selves up towards revenge militancy, which inevitably leads to counter militancy that only satisfies the local and international anarchist but not the majority of Nigerians.

Rip and commiseration to all affected.

This figure is huge. I was in Warri this year and I’m not sure there’s been so much reflection of this figure in the city. Maybe the money was spent somewhere else in the state.

Delta state shouldn't be as underdeveloped as it is.

I just hope that by the time the thieves are caught they won't be Nigerians. I dey fear ó because i know my people. Oluwole and Otigba boys at the world cup.

Africans did not rob reporters -or foreigners as far as I know - when world cup was held in Africa (South) na far-far Arab land naim them go go rob people ?

For me this is a disgrace to Arabs and highlights why Nigerians should not put up with all those holier-than-thou nonsense from Dubai or their black coon apologists.

Arabs thieving in full glare of the entire worlds attention I wonder what they get up to when no one is watching!

When disgrace falls on finger pointers it falls mightily.

Hope us minorities that lost everything won't be forgotten by Biafra and Nigeria either. In that useless war, we were the greatest victims.

I dislike the way some that claim they are Nigerians and who are abroad or have access to information exploit the ignorance or inexposure of the Nigeria masses to somehow negatively impact them, using lies and distortions. Why these individuals hate the Nigeria masses to this extraordinary extent is significantly beyond me.

Look, if you are Nigerian, take heart, Nigeria is a great place. You are kind, loving and happy people. You are also smart people with customs and ways that are largely lost by blacks and other Africans. For this reason you Nigerians are custodians of the excellence lost by the World Black Family. Nigerians need to be strong for us blacks.

Take note and always keep in mind that there is nothing negative posted by the people abroad about Nigeria that does not happen elsewhere and actually often harpen worst. In addition there are many negative abroad that does not occur in Nigeria or happens to a minor extent. Understand that some are trying to brainwash you with selective info in the hope of sparking selffullfilling events.

Blame Your Leaders:
Blame our Leaders,for the nonsense Nigerians, especially,the less academic qualified are facing in other Countries,not just Dubai!
Those going to Dubai or any Arab Countries, because of Money should always remember that:
- your right to life would be curtailed
- your movements and freedom will be trampled upon,as you have read how even celebrities are treated with contempt, despite huge money they make or take their!
- always remember that Dubai was once a Desert but the Citizens just chose to make the Oil Money the best out of the desert!
- So,there is nothing special about the place but they want the best for her Citizens ,so don't lame Dubai Management afterall,blame Nigeria and African Leaders,making her Citizens a 2nd-rate - Citizens -abroad!
Very Shameful situations for the Black,!

You're uninformed. Try researching the disputes between the UK and Dubai over the maltreatment of British expatriates by the Emiratees due to cultural differences.

Nations can and do behave appealingly towards nationals and none nationals. They may have questionable emigration services, police and judiciary. Their courts can imprison foreigners unfairly and thire prisons brutalise individuals or kil them, motivated by ideology or due to questionable governance.

Those of you that claim you are Nigerians online need to stop excusing the actions of foreign nations abroad on grounds of Nigeria's local politics. The right attitude to adopt is question the actions of foreign Nations towards Nigerians in these nations if those Nigerians draw attention to problems they face which they believe are unjustified. The duty of Nigeria's state officials to Nigerians abroad is one of automatic advocacy and the obligation of Nigerians towards Nigerians in distress abroad is automatic support. To both Nigeria government and citizens, Nigerians in distress abroad are automatically innocent until proven guilty.

Herdsmen ate my hamster.

Majority of black men would not find Nigeria women Attractive because, sadly, majority of black men lack status either practically or mentally. In short, majority of black men are ghetto minded. Also significant black men are in effect ChildMen that think entirely in terms of sex without responsibility. Nigeria women are Witney Huston, catwalk model, miss world types and South Africa women are Nicky Minaj, rio carnival samba dancers and big booty twerkers. Guess which types majority of black men would prefer.

I sympathise with Dr Segun Agbaje, Nigeria is full of opportunities. I believe that Bobman22 belongs to a voice of certain individuals and group that are extremely dangerous to Nigeria and have been very damaging. These individuals or group want to politicise every aspect of the Nigeria reality, often employing the language of disgruntled West that sort to marginalise Africa from the world's family (and for decades succeeded ) by utilising the language of War,Famine, Barbarity, Pot-bellied leaders in categorisation of Africa.

Sure life can be said to be political however there is a difference between life's politics and Party Politics. Actually, I would go so far as to suggest that the group to which the likes of Bobman22 either belongs or unwittingly endorse are a sinister anti Nigeria force hiding under politics and social concern for the thire true agenda of making Nigeria untenable same way the West succeed against Africa, leading to the marginalisation of Africa from the economic streams that uplifted Asia. The marginalisation isolated Africa, consequently exasperating the understandable growing pains of Africa and caused those to be reinforcing. In addition to self-fulfilling the West mischievous prognosis.

Authorities in Nigeria need to work on this Jappanese culture by altering the narrative. Authorities need to return Nigeria to the world's reality instead of letting these forces separate Nigeria from the rest of the World same as the West did to Africa.

The reality is this: people in every nation have the right to travel and explore the world. People need not have to justify why they want to travel. Americans emigrate in mass to Europe, specifically Portugal. Indians travel en mass to Europe and America. Forces in Nigeria or abroad studying Nigeria, should not be allowed to position the needs or hunger of Nigerians to explore the world or emigrate as exceptional wants due to some ficticous "Nigeria Condition" then proceed to creat the language for this steeped in thire political or Other agenda.

The CO2 battery is made primarily with off-the-shelf industrial parts like compressors and turbines. And the way it works is relatively simple. CO2 is stored in a dome in gas form. When charging, the system pulls gas from that dome and compresses it down into a liquid. To discharge, the liquid is heated up to turn it back into a gas. As the CO2 expands from a liquid to a gas, it turns a turbine to generate electricity.

It’s actually a twist on what’s called compressed air energy storage, which encompasses a similar process that uses air instead of just CO2. Excess energy is used to compress the air, which is then stored underground, perhaps in a salt cavern or depleted natural gas reservoir. Energy Dome CEO and founder Claudio Spadacini, with experience as an engineer, says he got the idea for using CO2 instead of air because CO2 will liquify at ambient temperatures (at 31 degrees Celsius or 87.8 degrees Fahrenheit). “This makes it possible to store a huge amount of energy in a relatively small pressure vessel, which makes the technology very competitive in terms of cost,” Spadacini says

It also frees up the technology from some of the geographic constraints with compressed air energy storage. So while you probably won’t be seeing little domes filled with CO2 paired with home solar panels anytime soon, CO2 batteries could pop up alongside larger solar and wind farms, ushering in a cleaner future for the electricity grid.

Long-duration storage is the endgame for a grid that runs on renewable energy. Wind and solar power can be fickle, depending on the weather. Solar panels need to soak up energy on sunny days and turbines need to make the most of strong gales before they weaken. The problem is that there isn’t much storage on the grid yet, which can hold excess solar and wind energy and then dispatch it when the sun sets and winds die down.

The thing with wind is that it doesn’t ebb and flow quite as predictably as solar energy. The sun rises and sets each day, and lithium-ion batteries excel within this short time frame — quickly charging and discharging over several hours. A strong wind event, on the other hand, might last several hours or much longer than a day. And lithium-ion batteries become much less cost-competitive when it comes to storing and discharging energy for longer periods of time.

That’s where the CO2 battery could come in handy. Its sweet spot, when it comes to how long it can either store or dispatch power, is between four hours and a full day, says Spadacini. If it needs to, the CO2 battery can stretch that duration out to even a week or longer. That broad range means that the CO2 battery can go head-to-head against lithium-ion for solar energy storage — but it can potentially outcompete its rival for the longer-term needs of wind energy.

2022. Another startup developing iron-air batteries has also made waves for its potential to store and discharge renewable energy for days using simple materials. And older technologies like lithium-ion batteries and compressed air energy storage will continue to give startups like Energy Dome a run for their money.
In the end, there doesn’t need to be one winner — and that’s probably for the best so that our future energy system isn’t reliant on any one technology or set of materials. “Diversification in energy, in anything, is usually a good strategy,” Hittinger says. “The process of trying out a lot of alternatives is a healthy one

Banking giants and New York Fed start 12-week digital dollar pilot

NEW YORK, Nov 15 (Reuters) - Global banking giants are starting a 12-week digital dollar pilot with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, the participants announced on Tuesday.

Citigroup Inc , HSBC Holdings Plc (HSBA.L), Mastercard Inc (MA.N) and Wells Fargo & Co (WFC.N) are among the financial companies participating in the experiment alongside the New York Fed's innovation center, they said in a statement. The project, which is called the regulated liability network, will be conducted in a test environment and use simulated data, the New York Fed said.

The pilot will test how banks using digital dollar tokens in a common database can help speed up payments.

Earlier this month, Michelle Neal, head of the New York Fed's market's group, said it sees promise in using a central bank digital dollar to speed up settlement time in currency markets.

Great job by our Patriotic Naval officers. Thank you for standing up for our great nation. Our institutions work! This is so highly professional and advanced crime bursting only an ignorant person would think is beyond the capability of Nigerian Armed Forces.

This should serve as a memo to foreigners and ignorant Nigerians who do crime.When they tell you that nonsense of 'this is Nigeria' and you foolishly fall for them, just know that you are digging your own grave. When the poop hits the fan, those useless folks will abandon you to your fate. These guys will never believe that they will sleep in Nigerian jail and their families will travel down to Nigeria to visit them in jail!

All the enemies of Nigeria will lose las las. They always lose. God bless Nigeria for ever! May the population of our Patriots continue to grow and may all our unpatriotic elements continue to diminish in life and number.


Well done to all the Patriots who made this possible.

Oil Theft: 27 Crew Members of Rogue Vessel, MT Heroic Idun, Arraigned


The Nigerian Navy (NN) at the weekend successfully brought back from Equitorial Guinea, a crude carrier, Supertanker MT HEROIC IDUN and her crew members to face criminal charges for offences committed within the country’s maritime domain.

HEROIC IDUN has been in the news since August after it evaded arrest by NNS GONGOLA around the AKPO Oil Field where it was found at the wee hours of August 8 without valid papers.

The vessel with capacity to carry over three million barrels of crude oil, had allegedly claimed it was scheduled to load product and was awaiting instructions from its owners, agents when the warship intercepted it.

Upon establishing that the crude carrier which had a crew of 26 persons comprising 16 Indians, eight Sri Lankans, a Polish and one Filipino nationals was around the restricted area illegally, the naval warship ordered the vessel to alter its course and move towards Bonny Fairway Buoy but the ship rather fled to Equatorial Guinea.

The Nation had reported how the vessel which was eventually arrested in the Central African country in line with the Yaounde Code, provided a loading document which was however several days ahead of the date it was caught around the oil field.

“The vessel has been successfully brought back home and its crew members have been arraigned in court in Rivers State,.

“Interestingly, the vessel that the captain claimed was bad and cannot sail back to Nigeria sailed unaided. It didn’t need the help of the two tugboats the NN moved to that country to tow it back. The vessel is now anchored at Bonny,” he said.

Contacted, Director of Naval Information (DINFO), Commodore Adedotun Ayo-Vaughan confirmed MT HEROIC IDUN arrived Bonny on Saturday afternoon, adding that the legal team of the Navy has taken up the case in collaboration with prosecutorial agencies.


Justice Adamu Turaki Mohammed of the Federal High Court in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, yesterday remanded in custody 16 of the foreign nationals for alleged involvement in crude oil theft.

They were charged with illegal oil bunkering.

The incident allegedly happened around Akpo Oil Field within Rivers State in August.

The suspected oil thieves are being prosecuted by the Nigerian Navy.

Those arraigned yesterday pleaded not guilty and were remanded on the vessel (Mt. Heroic Idun). The case was adjourned till today for the other suspects to also take their plea.

The charge sheet stated, among others, that the suspects “sometime in the month of August 2022 at Akpo Oil Field Rivers State…attempted to deal in crude oil within the Nigeria Exclusive Economic zone without lawful authority and you thereby committed an offence contrary to section 1 (17) of the miscellaneous offences Act, 2004”.

Sixteen of the accused persons who were present in the court, including Captain of the ship Mehta Tanuj, an Indian.

Justice Mohammed ordered that the men be remanded on the vessel with security personnel and that access be granted them to their medical needs.

Before we got to Lomany where we held by Nigerian Army in batch for onward escort to Ngala (Gamboru), you will have to oadd through strong Boko Haram/ Iswap den, before we left we where warned to fix our vehicles.

Hmmm, escorted by Nigeria soldiers to protect them. The very soldiers majority of Niaralanders either keep abusing or keep encouraging to Jappa, saying that Nigeria is not worth dying for, which in a sense is like saying that this Nigerian traveling to Chad, and the other people in his report that these soldiers were escorting for thire safety, are worthless...

'No longer science fiction'? Metaverse could pump $1.4 trillion a year into Asia's GDP, report says

Meta's huge bet on the metaverse may have put the company in dire straits, but a new Deloitte report suggests that virtual realities could have a "transformational impact" on Asian economies.
The metaverse's contribution to gross domestic product in Asia could be between $800 billion and $1.4 trillion per year by 2035, said the consulting company.
"The metaverse is no longer science fiction. Early metaverse platforms are already being used by millions," it wrote.
The impact of the metaverse to GDP in Asia could be between $0.8 and 1.4 trillion per year by 2035, said a new Deloitte report.

Meta's huge bet on the metaverse may have put the company in dire straits, but a new Deloitte report suggests that virtual realities could have "transformational effects" on Asian economies.

The metaverse's contribution to gross domestic product in Asia could be between $800 billion and $1.4 trillion per year by 2035, said the consulting company.


That would make up roughly 1.3% to 2.4% of overall GDP, it added, assuming there are "sustained technology investments made in the next five to ten years."

The metaverse can be loosely defined as a virtual world where people live, work and play. With cryptocurrency, users can buy and develop virtual land or dress their own avatars.


Deloitte's new report, titled "The Metaverse in Asia: Strategies for Accelerating Economic Impact," examined the potential influence of the metaverse on 12 Asian economies.

Duleesha Kulasooriya, Deloitte Center for the Edge's managing director in Southeast Asia, attributed the size of the forecast impact to the "demographic gravity" of the region.

"If you look at the youths … they're are the ones who are interacting and engaging in the metaverse mostly today, and 60% of the world's youths live in Asia," he said.



On top of that, there are 1.3 billion mobile gamers in Asia, making up the world's largest player base, according to the report.

"The metaverse is no longer science fiction. Early metaverse platforms are already being used by millions," it wrote.

Gaming is "one of the early ways" in which one is introduced to the metaverse, Kulasooriya added.

"That segment and their expectations are going to drive a lot of behaviors of how the next internet evolves."

Asia's edge
Though metaverse technology is still in its nascence, there are already "millions" in Asia spending time and money on popular virtual platforms like Fortnite, Roblox and Decentraland, said Deloitte.

South Korea's Zepeto, a social media app that allows users to create 3D avatars, has over 300 million registered users worldwide, it added.

Asia's edge when it comes to the metaverse also lies in its "sectoral expertise" as a manufacturer of electronics and semiconductors.


"If you think of integrated circuit manufacturing and all the stuff that makes technology work, 75% of the integrated circuits are made in Asia," said Kulasooriya.

"It's a huge manufacturing capacity."

Taiwan, for example, holds more than 90% of the manufacturing capacity for the world's most advanced semiconductors, according to a 2021 Boston Consulting Group report.

Country-specific strategies
While Deloitte's research points to the region's huge economic potential, how ready it is for the metaverse ultimately depends on the "unique strategies" of each economy.

Michelle Khoo, Deloitte Center for the Edge's director for Southeast Asia, said: "We look at things like, the sectoral structure, how innovative is the economy, what is the average level of income?"

Technology fundamentals like connectivity, smartphone penetration and digital payment adoption are also crucial in determining an economy's readiness for the metaverse, she added.

TOP ASIAN ECONOMIES' POTENTIAL IMPACT OF THE METAVERSE BY 2035
Country Economic impact per year
China $456-862 billion
Japan $87-165 billion
India $79 -148 billion
South Korea $36-67 billion
Indonesia $28-52 billion
For example, China has set out trajectories for metaverse development and is "building on their strength" as a manufacturing hub, Khoo said.

In August, Beijing announced a two-year metaverse innovation and development plan, aimed at developing its infrastructure and promoting its usage.

Shanghai also included the metaverse in its latest five-year development plan at the end of last year.

Similarly, South Korea has a "strategic blueprint," said Deloitte, to foster the metaverse industry, with an initial investment of $177.1 million for the endeavor.

"The metaverse is inevitable. Developing the technology stacks, human capital and regulatory frameworks to realize Asia's trillion-dollar metaverse potential will benefit a wide range of industries and economic activities," said Kulasooriya.

Obstacles
Though Deloitte's report suggests China could the biggest beneficiary in terms of GDP, the country still faces heavy regulatory challenges in developing the metaverse.

For example, cryptocurrencies are banned within the country, said JPMorgan analysts in a September report.


And despite heavy investments into the metaverse, a report last month showed that Meta's Horizon Worlds is falling short of expectations to reach 500,000 monthly users by end of 2022.

Instead, it is currently registering less than 200,000 monthly active users. Meta's CEO Mark Zuckerberg previously told CNBC that the company hopes to "get to around a billion people in the metaverse."

MYYYYYYYYY GOD, Niaralanders! (Niaralanders, I'm not going to insult Nigeria by exclaiming, "Nigerians!!) you people are already accepting what the Uganda university authorities concluded and are insulting the man, Nigeria - and his tribe no doubt. Have you people on here researched the case or heard from all sides? What did the prof say in his defence ? How many of you were in Uganda ? Have you people no life experience or ability to learn from history ? You don't know individuals can be subject to victimisation at work for stepping on the wrong toes? That if you are a foreigner in certain nations, they are capable of wickedly closing ranks against you? You people have not considered the possibility of false accusation informed by possible university politics, taking into consideration his nationally and the propensity Africans have revealed - because social media is exposing the world - to exists in delusional states of matter where every crime in thire shithole nations is caused by Nigerians ?
