guonno: but sometimes i really wonder how people think. the opposition party is made up of people that destroyed nigeria beyond repair, and you still crucify jona? there is no difference between apc and pdp, apc is a reggional party north and west, the west might not see it now because it favours them now. pdp remains the only national party, lets work towRDS MAKING THE ONLY NATIONAL PARTY WORK.
don't you think it will be inimical to the tenet of democracy if we all join 'THE NATIONAL PARTY'? We all can't sleep facing the same direction.

PoliticsRe: Fashola Blames Okada For Damoche’s Murder by mbhs139(m): 10:35am On Mar 03, 2013
Omo_Tier1: Just go back and read that post again, you will find that Fashola never blamed Okada for the murder but merely highlighted that fact that again Okada was used by the killers of the young man. He also mentioned the medicl doctor who was killed by His assailants who rode on Okada. On the basis of His submission, it is obviously in His place to buttress his point about the legislation put in place to restrict the use of Okada and possibly the outright ban of it in the very near future.

Please go back and read that article again and ask yourself if Fashola actually blamed Okada for the death of the young man.

PoliticsRe: Good Governance Tour Ill-conceived – Fashola by mbhs139(m): 7:58pm On Feb 27, 2013
SIt will be recalled that Oshiomhole last weekend rejected a N130 million proposal from the minister asking the state government to bankroll the Edo State leg of the tour after describing it as a waste of public fund.

Oshiomhole had said: “The resources accruable to Edo State cannot afford to accommodate the expenses of hosting the Minister of Information and his good governance tour team. Why should I take Edo State tax payers money to finance a Federal Government project? I don’t need Abuja to help me to tell Edo State people what I am doing in the state. Anytime a state official goes for official duty in Abuja, the state takes responsibilities for the expenses.

So, I expect the Federal Government to finance its own official tour.” National Mirror, however, learnt that the proposed tour would have cost the government about N180 million, which the governor said he would find difficult to reconcile with the state’s lean resources. Owing to the governor’s refusal to sponsor the state leg of the tour, Maku decided to still go ahead with the inspection, but with plans to cover only Federal Government projects in the state.

chizel: All this morons that are condemning the good gorvernance tour of the 36 states of the federation embarked upon by the federal govt are nothing but a bunch of hypocrit,and for fashola to condem it is unfortunate,I think its high time the people in the opposition more especially the Yorubas grow up,president of the federal republic of Nigeria has the right to know how any politically elected or appointed office holder in any part of Nigeria is performing irrespective of the party such a person belonged in,obasanjo did it and I didn't hear the Yorubas condemning it,if the federal govt has no right embarking on the project then fashola has no right embarking in all this media propaganda he has been doing,common street light of about 190 poles that was fixed in two streets of lagos,the media was there to show it to the world,what a shame.i think it's high time this people grow above petty politics.to the opposition,only the politicians elected in their platform is doing well,those from the ruling party are not performing,they will never see anything good from them,and am yet to see the magic that the opposition is performing in their various states,the other day in Abeokuta,we were told of billions being spent on a small flyover bridge by the state govt,the media was there to cover it as if it was the first to be built in any part of Nigeria.
at the bolded: it is very unfortunate that someone in this time and clime can make such a sweeping statement without supporting it with constitutional evidence. It is very upsetting to hear that the President is now the one carrying out an oversight function over freely elected state governors that also has their house of assembly.

tell me my friend, where as the principle of exclusive and concurrent legislative bill gone to? what is the work of the state houses of assembly, if governors performance has to be endorsed or otherwise from Abuja.

i disagree with you.

anyway, it may have been wrong, according to you, for fashola to have discredited the process, but it is not appropriate to suggest that the federal government should monitor state governors because they give them money monthly. perhaps you forget that it is this state governments that own the resources from which the federal government gets the monies in the first place. abi, does the federal government own any land except abuja?

you are correct. but we will get there one day. watch out for our newsletter on school climate, it's free
FamilyRe: 9-year-old Boy Commits Suicide After Being Bullied At School by mbhs139(m): 4:01pm On Feb 26, 2013
Problems in schools include truancy, bullying, breakdown in classroom order and declining academic abilities. One study found that many students today suffer from "a lack of incentive, inquisitiveness, independence and maturity

Surveys have found that children in eight percent of public school classrooms are so unruly teachers can not hold lessons. In these classes, children refuse to sit still, listen or stop talking. Teachers frequently report that students get up and wander around when they feel like it and kick doors and make other loud noises to attract attention.

In 1995, a 13-year-old boy was kicked, shoved against a blackboard and slammed onto a desk top 40 times by a teacher for not doing his homework. Also, a junior high school girl in Tokyo was punched and pulled by the hair by a teacher for raising an objection to some aspects of a school festival.

A teacher was suspended for three months for repeatedly slapping a nine-year-old girl. The girl, who was punished for not finishing her lunch, was harangued and scolded more when she would not stop crying. The girl was so traumatized she transferred to another school

In 1995, a 16-year-old school girl died from brain injuries sustained when she was slammed head-first into a stone pillar by her home room teacher because her skirt was too short

In 1990, a 15-year-old girl died when a teacher slammed a 500-pound iron gate on her because she was a couple of minutes late. That teacher was sentenced to two years in prison, which many people thought was unfair

In December 2005, a 12-year-old girl was fatally stabbed by her teacher in Kyoto. The teacher, a part time instructor and student at a local university, told police he had trouble teaching the girl who was very rude and disrespectful to him.

In March 2006, an 11-year-old boy hung himself after receiving corporal punishment from his teacher. According to court documents, the teacher grabbed the boy’s lapels and shook him after the boy hit another student with a rolled up newspaper, demanding he apologize. In October 2009, a court ruled that the punishment led the boy to kill himself and ordered the local government to pay the boy’s parents about $100,000.

Bullying victims complain of being kicked, slapped around, tortured and humiliated by other students. A common form of bullying is placing garbage in the shoes of a victim. In severe cases, victims become virtual slaves to bullies who extort huge sums of money and beat their victims so severely they have to be hospitalized. Bullying has resulted in some suicides and is responsible for a large number of children avoiding school [ibid].

A bullying victim in northern Japan suffocated to death after being rolled up in a gymnasium mat and stuffed into a closet by his junior high school classmates

One survey found that 14 percent of children had experienced some kind of bullying. This rate is low compared to Britain, where 40 percent have been bullied. Japan, however, had the highest rates of students being repeatedly bullied. The rate of bullying has reportedly declined in recent years. Some educators are suspicious of these statistics, saying that many cases of bullying go unreported

Teachers often offer little help, sometimes even ridiculing children who are different. A 12-year-old in Osaka sued his teacher for standing by and doing nothing while he was bullied by other students. Sociologists say that bullying is a product of the conforming pressure of the society. Children are bullied for being too smart, too dumb, and too ugly or simply being different. Other scholars say it is also a release for the academic pressure to do well in school

One of the most distressing things about the bullying incidents is that few of the victims felt they could turn to their parents or teachers for help. A study of children who were considered bullied felt they had poor communication with their parents and suffered from parental violence.

A clinical psychologist at Nara University of Education, said, “… bullying tends to happen between very close friends, and the situation is often worsened because bystanders do not try to intervene. The bullying often takes the form of social exclusion rather than violence.” A survey of middle schools found that the rate of bullying in classrooms where signs of classroom breakdown are seen is about five times higher than in classrooms where relations are good and rules are obeyed,"

Shigeo Kawamura, a professor at Waseda University's school of education, said: "If students' frustration with school rises, it's more likely that certain students will become punching bags for others to vent their frustration.”

Molestation and statutory rape of children by teachers is a serious problem in Japan. In 1999, 116 teachers were disciplined for committing indecent acts on students. Of these, 56 were fired and 13 were charged with crimes. In 2001, there were 122 such cases. Experts believe that vast majority of cases go unreported.

In 2002, 98 teachers were fired for obscene acts. In 2003, 155 teachers were disciplined for “indecent acts.” in 2005, 124 teachers were disciplined for sexual offenses, including child prostitution and secretly taking images of women. In 1995, only 27 teachers were disciplined for such acts.

Never knew people could be this responsive to this kind of news. It really excites me to see people's reaction on this issue. I've been at the vanguard of safe school through my initiative 'where we learn'. It is actually on emotional safety in schools.

Recently, the Lagos State Safety Commission held a conference on school safety, I attended, but what they talked about at the conference was all about the removal of physical safety in schools. They failed to take note of the fact that as schools strive to achieve the specific behaviors typical of an emotionally safe school, they will no doubt see improvements in the culture of the school, as well as in the performance, commitment, behavior, and interactions that occur within its walls. Likewise, as schools increase the agreement with each of the elements of a positive school climate, they can expect a reduction of stress commonly associated with failure, rebelliousness, disruptiveness, and passive student behavior such as bullying.

All learners want to be safe and happy, supported, cared for, valued, appropriately challenged and engaged in ways that touch our hearts as well as our minds. When school members feel safe, valued, cared for, engaged and respected, learning measurably increases, and staff satisfaction and retention are enhanced.

A growing body of empirical research shows that a positive school climate reduces dropouts and fosters youth development and academic achievement, as well as the knowledge, skills, and dispositions necessary for students to be responsible and productive members of a democratic society.

It may also interest you as a reader to note that students cannot learn well and are not likely to behave well in difficult school environments. Indeed, research based evidence continues to demonstrate this critical connection (Where We Learn, Perkins, 2006).

Unfortunately, however, the recent increased pressure to improve students' academic performance because of their not too impressive performance in WAEC and NECO exams over the years has led many to feel that they do not have time to address anything but academic instruction.

That would appear to be a direct approach, but because relationships are so important to learning, strengthening instruction in a difficult school climate generally does not improve academic outcomes (ibid). It is only a safe and trusted school environment that can give students the security and encouragement they need to achieve academically.

In any case, has he done evil by making a picture more modest? I am not a Muslim, but they are more serious with their religion than most Christians are. today we see half naked people every where in churches and the pastors and priests say nothing about it, saying it doesn't matter, that it is the heart that matters, yet many hearts in church are filled with lust and our churches are drowning in the vice of sexual immorality evident by many scandals, while shouts of "Praise the Lord" and "Alleluia" fills the air. Yes, their standards and outward observances might not have stopped many of them from misbehaving, but are those that don't have any better?
