This is a good development in the political history of Nigeria. PDP needs to sit up. Goodluck must prove himself as the best. He should take a close look of what he has not done well like many abandon road projects in his own region.

Destiny manifestation

One foot .

Amaechi has been a controversial being right from school days and all through his life. He should remember what happened to Peter Odili after betraying his region. He is now politically irrelevant.

...with APC engine? No is not a good aircraft. Tinubu oya go buy

make the wife dress like that too so that he look her own

They have old aircrafts, but they charge low last I flew from Lagos to PHC

$323.34. The painful part is paying $20 in SportClips Haircut for just an haircut. I must buy my clipper now for just $19 in Walmart

Immorality upgrade just ended. Nonsense

Horus: When America used chemical weapons in Vietnam nobody called it "crossing a red line"

THAT WAS THEN

delgroveng: As a newly graduated chemist. I think u are far from going into biz on ur own. However knowledge is power and money. There are many plants,roots and byproducts that can be sold in Asia
However it be more rewarding to process anything b4 u export no matter how small EVA.
Pls don't just import finished goods...starch extraction from cassava is very profitable, many more for plants for their element being used in cosmetics and all

If u decide u need a machinery for extraction , I'd be glad to work with u and if u need a market to supply, I could guide u too.

Are u into export or u only sell the machine?

sexytabhi: What business do they have with egypt

They are jobless and uneducated. Do they even understand wetin dey happen for EGYPT

Dubby6: Mr. Fix it so I should vote for a coward cos his frm my 'area' SMH

How is GEJ a coward? Look! He is the most civilize president Nigeria has ever had.So he handles situation of this country wisely, not as an ex- military man. So he is not a coward. he is a wise man

GEJ is doing well. Almost all the airports are wearing news look. GEJ for 2015. No chance for desperate APC politicians

Wininlight: One Million man march against bad governance in Nigeria (unemployment in focus)!!!

Keep on waiting for government. Shine your eyes

Ekawu: gang up? but APC seems to be the most viable platform for now.

There are so desperate for power. This shows that they are targeting the national cake. Is a very wrong platform

Siena: I'd ask if there's still a thermostat fitted.

May I know why one should ask this question?

Does he understand him?

Islam is a religion of PEACE indeed

Nigerian Senates must hear this. Shameful set of unlawful makers

RIP. This should be a wake up call to GEJ to look into the issues in Niger Delta and stop pleasing faceless northerners. Azuimi-Ukanafun-Ekparakwa is worse than death trap.

Miss Imo deserved the crown, not Bayelsa

victorD3: Gov Godswill Akpabio is already in his 2nd term but trust me 90% of people living in Akwa-Ibom state (not people outside AKS that believes all that paid press has to say) cant just wait for his tenure to finish. If he is given another chance (3rd term) it means people will be dying of hunger while treking on a massive and beautify roads.

Talk of a lazy man. Think of what to do and help yourself. Governors dont share food on the streets. If his predecessors had done what he is doing now , he would have focused on other sectors.

I just found this online and I feel like sharing it because it is important.

If you feel as if every mosquito in a 50-mile radius has you locked in its sights, while your friends are rarely bitten, you could be right. Up to 20 percent of us are highly alluring to mosquitoes—and scientists have discovered some surprising reasons.

“Both your metabolism and your unique body chemistry—which is as distinctive as a fingerprint—play an important role in determining whether or not you’re a mosquito magnet,” says University of Florida entomology professor Dr. Phil Koehler. “Also, there’s evidence that your degree of attractiveness to mosquitoes can change over time.”

Here are some intriguing discoveries about why some of us are particularly tasty targets for the tiny vampires:

Mosquitos prefer blood type O

In their quest for a meal, mosquitoes are nearly twice as likely to land on people with type 0 blood than those with type A, according to a Japanese study. Indeed, the biting pests consider type 0 more delectable than any other blood type, the researchers reported. Most people secrete substances that allow mosquitoes to identify blood type before they bite.

Beer drinkers beware

Swigging just one bottle of beer can significantly boost your risk of being bitten, according to a study published in Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association. The researchers reported that, “Mosquito landing on volunteers significantly increased after beer ingestion compared with before ingestion.”

Watch out for the full moon

The tiny bloodsuckers are 500 times more active when the moon is full, reports the American Mosquito Control Association (AMCA). Overall, the highest risk times for mosquito bites are dusk and dawn, with the females of some species migrating up to 40 miles in pursuit of a meal. (Male mosquitoes don’t bite.)

Keep your socks on

The pungent aroma of dirty feet is apparently irresistible to mosquitoes, as a brave scientist, Bart Knols, discovered when he sat in a lab in his underwear to find out which parts of the body the pests are most likely to target. He found that 75 percent of the bugs homed in on his feet, but after he washed them with deodorant soap, the mosquitos bit randomly. His team also reported that stinky cheeses, such as Limburger—which has the same odoriferous compound responsible for foot odor—also draws mosquitoes.

Mosquitos know if you’re expecting

Moms-to-be get bitten about twice as often as women who aren’t pregnant, increasing their risk for bug-borne diseases, according to a study conducted in Gambia. The researchers hypothesized that since women in the later stages of pregnancy exhale 21 percent more volume, mosquitos were drawn in by the moisture and carbon dioxide in their breath. They also found that pregnant women's abdomens are nearly 1 degree warmer, which may cause more volatile substances—released in sweat and attractive to mosquitos—to be present on their skin. Not only do several other studies have similar findings, says Dr. Koehler, but “there’s also evidence that women are more attractive to mosquitoes during certain phases of the ovulation cycle.” Studies have mixed results as to whether men or women are more likely to get bitten, he adds.

Running won’t help you

Both the carbon dioxide we exhale and substances in sweat, such as lactic acid, help mosquitoes home in on their prey. As a result, Dr. Koehler reports. “You’re more likely to be bitten if you’re running or exercising than when you’re at rest, since you’re breathing harder and sweating more.” In fact, physical activity ups risk for bites by as much as 50 percent, according to AMCA.

Like vampires, they prefer dark clothes

Dark-colored clothing can increase your risk of falling victim to the little bloodsuckers, compared to lighter-colored garments, says Dr. Koehler. In one study comparing the appeal of various hues to mosquitoes, the researchers reported the following results: black (most attractive); red (very attractive); grey and blue (neutral); khaki, green, light khaki, and yellow (less attractive).

Who known, he might be used by AREWA to enhance the activities of Boko Haram

kehinde1588: are u jonathan last born? frm ur comment it shows u ar rilly trained well..#god punish,ashawo,agberofamily# charity begins at home

Is amazing. PHCN off electricity for 5 to 10 minute after four or five days supply. GEJ is working

This is a good one from Akpabio. Let me use this opportunity to about this abandon road by CCECC. The road is Azimini~Iwuken~Ukanfun road. What is happening to this road which has been abandoned for years now? What's the hope that this road will be constructed again
