Akpan107: he for remove cap so that he would be able to see well.

If you have ever used a microscope before u will realise the cap does not affect the view of slide . Rather it will make it even easier to characterise any organism with the improved view the shadow provides.
Secondly, I think abusing the president at any giving opportunity is a Habit that is very regrettable and should be condemned by all

While inspecting facilities at the Fed University President Goodluck Jonathan decides to use one of the Light microscope himself. Ahhh . I almost forgot he is a scientist . With Brand new universities across Nigeria each state in the federation can now boast of having a federal institution . Thumbs up GEJ

Sule Lamido Lacks Quality To
Be President, He is 419”
L-R-Gov-Sule-Lamido-and-Dan
By Umar Akilu Majeri, Dutse
The director of information Jigawa state
under the Saminu Turaki administration and
the former national coordinator of the PDP
northern region campaign of the Late
President Alhaji Umaru Musa Yar’Adua, Alhaji
Ishaq Hadejia, today, challenged the
qualifications of the Jigawa State governor to
vie for the office of the President in 2015. He
challenged the governor to come clean on the
allegation of forgery certificate and the poor
quality of leadership rendered so far in
Jigawa State.
Alhaji Ishaq Hadejia, who is now a member of
the opposition party, All Progressive
Congress [APC] in Jigawa state, stated that
Governor Sule Lamido lacked the leadership
quality to rule the country in 2015. He stated
this in an exclusive interview with
247ureports.com.
Alhaji Ishaq Hadejia called on informed
observers to compare the infrastructural
development on ground in the State against
the many billions “looted by the Lamido
administration”.
Available information indicates that
Governor Sule Lamido was a secondary
school dropout – who following his rise to
Governor’s seat quickly rose to the ranks of
multi-billionaire. Allegations from competent
quarters indicate that he may have gone
beyond enriching himself – to enrich his sons
and his extended family. While he served as
the federal minister of foreign affairs, he
owned no significant buildings or properties –
but with his accession to the seat of Jigawa
State Governor, he erected major structures
scattered across the landscape of Kano State.
According to Alhaji Ishaq Hadejia, “billions of
Naira meant for Jigawa state government was
diverted to his elder’s son account ”.
Alhaji Ishaq Hadejia continued to reveal that
one of Lamido’s commissioners diverted
virtually all developmental projects originally
earmarked to various regions in the State to
the Governor’s hometown in Birnin kudu
local government. Birnin kudu local
government received projects worth over
N30billion.
“Lamido’s government is a selfish
government” lamented Alhaji Ishaq Hadejia –
as he continued to add that “Jigawa people
will not allow people like Lamido to continue
deceive the people in the state. The
government of Jigawa state is trying to play
with our intelligence – to start executing
project that will never be completed – in
order to win the mind of the people – as part
of presidential campaign. It will not be
possible”.
Alhaji Ishaq Hadejia said he learnt that Jigawa
state government is planning to execute
N10billion worth of projects to the people of
Hadejia at the tail end of his 8 years in office.
“But the people of Hadejia can see why he is
suddenly acting to placate them”. Alhaji Ishaq
Hadejia cautioned that those who are
advertising Lamido as a presidential flag
bearer “are deceiving themselves because
Lamido could not perform and he too knows
that he cannot”.
He continued, “There are many Nigerians who
are qualified to lead the country better than
Lamido”, – that there is no need devoting
time on “Lamido who don’t have even
secondary school certificate, who is arrogant
and lacking in language discipline”.
He urged Nigerian to make a better choice in
the next coming election to elect leaders that
could perform better and be useful to
Nigerians – those who could protect lives and
properties of the people not people like
Lamido. “Lamido has lots of problem which
everybody knows. His nature of rudeness is
unrivaled”.
“How will Nigerians allow such people to lead
them? I know if Nigerians mistakenly elect
Lamido as president in 2015 they will regret it
because poverty will increase in the country.
Jigawa people are now in hardship. Many
people were injected with poverty in the
state. So how could we advertise such people
to be elected as leaders in the country? We
here in Jigawa we have made that mistake
and we will not do it again and we will not
allow Nigerians to copy it” he stated.
“If Lamido wants to help Jigawa people, he
should improve the farming activities. He
should use that N30billion spent in his local
government for agricultural purpose. It will
help the farmers boost farming activities in
all the 27 local government areas in the state”.
Alhaji Ishaq Hadejia also commented on the
recent effort by the Lamido administration to
bring foreign investors to the State. In his
words, “all the investors who attended the
Jigawa economic summit to invest on various
trades in the state have understood that
anybody who mistakenly sinks his money in
Jigawa will never make any profits because
Jigawa people consider the summit as
toothless”.
“The investors should be very careful of the
419 arrangement between the Lamido and his
political father Obasanjo”.

Jonathan's Queens - 1st Female Nigerian Defence Academy Cadets

With the directive of president GOODLUCK JONATHAN in 2010 that female cadets be admitted into the Nigerian defence academy,the prestigious military academy began the intake,of the over 100,000 that applied only 20 were successful and 2 out of the 20 beat their male counterpart to secure placement at the PRESTIGIOUS UNITED STATES MILITARY ACADEMY. they are set to pass out on september 15 2016 . last night he named them THE JONATHANS QUEENS ,

I might be wrong but super Eagles striker Brown Ideye should shave off the useless hair he left because it is in my opinion that while it makes Balotelli think well in front of Goal it simply makes Ideye useless in front of goal .
what ever makes him think he has lots of skills is related to that useless hair in the middle ,that's also what makes him think he must dribble the goal keeper for goals to count .
so my appeal to the striker is please kindly shave stuff off may be just may be you will be useful in front of goal ,and spare us more agony its enough

New improved GEJ! No nonsense

President Goodluck Jonathan has expressed his
dismay that the most senior officials of many of
Nigeria’s military and para-militaary security
agencies are incompetent and do not merit their
positions; thus leading to a dismal performance
by the agencies.
The president, who stated this while inaugurating
the Police Service Commission on Wednesday at
the State House, Abuja, called for a total overhaul
of the security agencies, and charged the
commission to flush out the bad eggs in the
police.
He charged the new police commission chairman,
Mike Okiro, and the other five members, to instil
discipline in the force and ensure that
promotions are done purely on merit.
Mr. Jonathan said indiscipline and irregularities
in staff promotion exercises were a major
problem in military and para-military agencies.
“I believe there are two things, one is the issue of
discipline, and so one of the responsibilities of
the Police Service Commission is to instil
discipline. Another thing I believe is that people
who have no merit to certain ranks are being
promoted to those ranks.
“One of your responsibilities is to handle
promotion. I believe with you only those who
merit or deserve promotion should be
promoted. Those who deserve to be disciplined
or even dismissal must be disciplined,” the
president said.
Unqualified immigration
To justify his claim of incompetent individuals
heading Nigeria’s security agencies, the president
made reference to the recent screening and
review process of six candidates for the post of
the Comptroller General of the Nigeria
Immigration Service. He said most of the six
were not only undeserving of the position they
were nominated for, but should have been
sacked from the service.
“Few days back I did approve the new
comptroller general of immigration, …, of about
six that were to be reviewed, some were sent
from the ministry, some were picked from
amongst the most senior.
“When we reviewed the six, from my intelligent
investigation most of them were supposed to
have been dismissed. But those were the people
that were being forwarded for appointment as
Comptroller General of Immigration. Among
them only one is qualified to even stay and serve,
others ordinarily are supposed to be dismissed
from the records,” the president said.
The President had on Tuesday approved the
immediate retirement of five deputy comptroller
general of immigration service. Those affected
were R.B. Musa, Denen Akaa, F.T. Mologe, Umar
Suleiman, and Kuso Abubakar Khalil. It is not
clear if or why the president did not demand that
the officials be prosecuted for whatever crimes
they committed to warrant their dismissal.
Mr. Jonathan said he believed that the
immigration case was similar to what obtained in
other security agencies.
“I believe that the story of Immigration is the
same with most of our services. I believe that is
why the performance of some of our military and
para-military officers is abysmal, because the
yardstick being used for promotion is not based
on competence, merit and performance.
“And that is one area I believe you (the police
commission) will go into. People who are
promoted to assistant police commissioner and
above must merit the rank. If you don’t merit the
rank you should be retired from the service
because is better for you not have enough
manpower than for you to have viruses and all
kinds of characters in the police force,” he said.
The president said that Nigerians were beginning
to lose confidence in the Nigerian Police.
“You will agree with me that Nigerians don’t have
so much confidence in the Nigerian police but
Nigerian police are good. The Nigerian Police that
work outside under United Nations are highly
honoured, highly commended and Okiro will
agree with me. But once we come back home that
is not reflected in what we do,” he said.
Advised to sack senior officers
The president also revealed that he was advised
to sack all senior police officers working at the
police headquarters.
“Even now that we have challenges, you will see
that, especially when the Police Headquarters
was bombed, some people came to me and say
Mr. President sack all police officers working in
that place from Assistant Commissioner of Police
and above.
“I did not sack any because of that incident. But
that was the advice I got; that if you do that
subsequent people that would be posted there
will sit up. How could the police allow their
headquarters to be bombed by a very local group
called Boko Haram?” he said.
Mr. Jonathan also advised Mr. Okiro and his
team to review the command structure in the
police.
“The Federal Executive Council, maybe in the
next one or two weeks we, are going to look at
the report because we want to come up with a
white paper on the police reform report.
“But since we have just appointed you we give
you privilege to look that document before we
come out with a white paper. So that if there is a
suggestion that you will bring, you bring it so that
it will be part of the white paper since you are the
one to manage the police.
“It is only proper that you and I will think alike
and be on the same page, because we need to
reform the Nigerian police for a better service
for us all. I believe with you working with the
Inspector General of Police and other senior
police officers, Nigeria police will be a better
force,” Mr. Jonathan stated

Tired Bank Employee Naps on
Keyboard, Transfers $293
Million
A German bank clerk fell asleep on his
keyboard and accidentally transformed a
minor transfer into a 222 million euro
($293 million) order, a court heard.
The man was supposed to transfer just 62.40
euros from a bank account belonging to a
retiree, but instead “fell asleep for an instant,
while pushing onto the number 2 key on the
keyboard” — making it a huge 222,222,222.22
euro order.
The case was taken to court by the man’s 48-
year-old colleague who was fired for letting
the mistake slip through when verifying the
order.
Judges at Hesse labour court ruled, however,
that failing to spot the error and approving
the transaction was not worthy of dismissal.
The judges instead decided that the
supervisor, who had been an employee at the
company since 1986, should only have been
reprimanded as she had already checked 812
transactions that day, allowing just a couple
of seconds to check each one for
irregularities and errors.
The judges ruled that it was clear there had
been no malicious intent on the supervisor’s
behalf, saying she should have received a
warning.
As a result, they ordered the bank to
reinstate the supervisor, saying her work
contract could not be terminated.
Fortunately for the company, the huge
transaction was spotted by a third employee
later in the day and corrected before any
money was exchanged

Female Students Barred From
Wearing Bra To Exams
Published on June 7, 2013 by · 1
Comment
More than nine million students packed exam
halls across China for the opening day of the
country’s university entrance exam on Friday —
with attempts to stop cheating even leading to
bans on metal bra clasps.
Students in the northeastern province of Jilin
were banned from wearing clothing with metal
parts and education authorities installed metal
detectors in exam centres to clamp down on
“wireless cheating devices”, the state-run Global
Times reported.
Authorities have become increasingly concerned
about the risk of examinees using devices such as
smartphones — some of which have become
smaller and easier to hide — as an illicit aid
during tests.
Around 9.12 million high school students were
registered across China to sit the crucially
important two-day exam, known as the gaokao,
reports have quoted the education ministry as
saying.
Officials aimed to crack down on “sales of high-
tech gear for cheating, and gaokao-related fraud”,
the Global Times said.
Some measures to ensure students reach the
annual test on time can be extreme. Pictures
posted online showed an amphibious fire engine
ploughing through water to deliver a boy dressed
in school uniform to the exam in a remote part of
Inner Mongolia.
The southern city of Guangzhou introduced
dedicated lanes for vehicles taking students to
the gaokao, local media said, while parents in
China’s business hub of Shanghai booked taxis a
week in advance for their children.
Parents across the country visited temples to
make offerings for their children’s success, the
Global Times said, while others were shown
waiting outside exam rooms with food and drink
specially prepared for their children.
The test has come under fierce criticism on China
for putting enormous pressure on students, and
as a symbol of educational inequality, with many
low-income students whose parents have
migrated to cities barred from taking the exam in
their new homes.

Football loving Nigerians may not get to watch
the 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifying game
against Kenya today, because of rights issues.
Officials of NTA revealed to KickOffNigeria, that
the right holders are demanding for as much as
€400,000 broadcast fee, before they can be
allowed to transmit the crucial match.
“It is outrageous! That is an
obscene amount of money
for just two hours of live
transmission and at very short notice,” the NTA
official said.
In what might offer anxious fans slim hope, he
added that the network was still negotiating to
try and bring down the fee.
“If we can get it down, and bring in other
stations like AIT, and so on, we may still be able
to bring the game to Nigerians,” he said.
The game is scheduled to kick off by 2pm in
Nairobi

No mercy: Female thief caught by
shop owner gets humiliated with
a hair shave (PHOTOS, WATCH)
Posted by Y! Assistant Editor
When Chinese shopkeeper Lu Sun saw a
shoplifter shoving clothes into her bag she
decided she’d teach her a lesson.
In an unusual example of vigilante justice, the
retailer, whose store had been hit by a spate of
thefts over the previous two weeks, pinned
shoplifter Li Wu to the ground, took a pair of
scissors and hacked off her long dark hair.
Lu Sun, 32, had lost hundreds of pounds worth
of goods from thefts at her store at a shopping
centre in Wenzhou, China, so decided to keep a
close watch on Li Wu when she saw her acting
suspiciously.
She said: ‘I watch so many people everyday, so
I can tell thieves from others easily.
‘When I noticed the woman sneaking around
in the shopping mall, I knew she was up to no
good.
‘So, when she came into my shop, I was alert
and finally caught her in the act.’
Miss Sun was helped by a neighbouring shop
owner who held Wi Lun down while she cut
off chunks of her hair.
The pair then called the police and had the
shoplifter arrested.
Miss Sun added: ‘I decided to do it to teach her
a lesson and to send a message to other
thieves in the area to stay away from my shop.’
Miss Sun is by no means the first shopkeeper
to dish out a painful lesson to thieves.
Last year Edinburgh retailer Arfan Hussain
became an internet sensation when CCTV
footage of him apprehending a thief went
viral.
The thief tried to steal £2.30 worth of
milkshake – but didn’t bargain on shopkeeper
Mr Hussain being a former Tae Kwon Do
champion.
He was hailed the internet’s next ‘Big Man’
after he posted the CCTV footage on YouTube.
A lesson learned: Lu Sun was helped by a
fellow shopkeeper as she pinned the shoplifter
down and hacked off her hair
Other shoplifter’s bizarre methods ensured
that they were brought to justice.
New Jersey thief Anthony DiVietro managed to
escape the clutches of the security guards at
the store he was trying to rob after they
spotted him acting suspiciously and gave
chase.
But DiVietro’s bizarre practice of dancing
while he stole came back to haunt him.
CCTV footage of him showing off his moves
while stuffing his waistband with products he
hadn’t paid for back in 2011 became an
internet hit and he was arrested after someone
recognised him.

As the march towards the 2015 general elections began,unlike previous times when bickering in the ruling party sets the tone,this time it is the opposition parties that are leading the fray with the merger and Amalgamation of The ACN, CPC,and the ANPP.
Leading the opposition parties in the quest to wrestle power from the PDP is Maj Gen Mohammadu Buhari a former head of state,and Senator Bola Ahamed Tinubu as feelers from the APC camp points to the Adoption of General Buhari as its flag bearer we x-ray the chances of the retired General as he tries for the forth time to lead Africa's most populous nation.
Section 134.of the Nigerian constitution states that. (1) A candidate for an election to the
office of President shall be deemed to have be
been duly elected, where, there being only
two candidates for the election -
(a) he has the majority of votes cast at the
election; and
(b) he has not less than one-quarter of the
votes cast at the election in each of at least
two-thirds of all the States in the Federation
and the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
(2) A candidate for an election to the office of
President shall be deemed to have been duly
elected where, there being more than two
candidates for the election-
(a) he has the highest number of votes cast at
the election;
and
(b) he has not less than one-quarter of the
votes cast at the election each of at least two-
thirds of all the States in the Federation and
the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.

With this constitutional requirement Buhari will have to win accumulate at least 25% votes in 24 states. And Score the highest no of votes to Occupy Aso Rock ,a deeper look at the 2011 presidential election results might offer a clue as to how the Election might be decided .

Labour 75% ( improved minimum wage , pensions payments, centralised payroll systems among others however,the shabby recruitment schemes by government Agencies, job buying still and slow service delivery is still a challenge )

Petroleum sector 60% ( increasing the refining capacity to 10.2 million litres daily, stability in petrol price and supply,cleansing of the subsidy scheme and increased private sector investment in this sector is a welcome development, but oil bunkering with it's attendant environmental challenges is still a source of worry)

Economic growth and stability 70%
( The growth in the economy placing Nigeria as one of the fastest growing Economy in the world with Over $50 billion in External reserves ,(Real) strong bank courtesy of CBN reforms, is a step in the right direction. However the living standard of Nigerians is yet to improve significantly)

Corruption 49%
(here again improvement is greatly needed, there have been less high profile convictions from 2011 to date, the state pardon of ''Alams'' dampened the spirit of the anti corruption crusade despite various successes recorded by both the EFCC and ICPC in the two years under review )

Education 85% (The establishment of Federal universities in all states without one , the introduction of the Almajiri school system, the almost seamless flow and stability in universities ,Graduate and PG scholarship
Schemes, unity schools rehabilitation among others set the administration apart ,however mass failure in WAEC and NECO remains a headache )

Press Freedom 95%( Excellent working climate even though abused by some remains the hallmark of his Administration despite little frictions here and there )

Electoral reforms 91%( Great improvement in the electoral processes, as compared to previous governments, the SIEC 's needs to take a cue )

Housing 50% .( High cost of mortgage still persists , FMBN and other agencies need to speed up constructions in states where housing projects are on going,progress in this sector has been slow and not steady )

International Relations.70%( Interventions in UN,AU,ECOWAS backed missions as well insistence on the proper treatment of nigerians by other countries especially South Africa including the recent release of nigerians jailed in Equatorial Guinea painted the administration in good light,yet the crisis and activities in some embassies and foreign missions abroad dampened the efforts to give Nigeria a new name.

Overall the administration has recorded some highs and some lows nevertheless for the country to achieve any meaningful development we must rise above sectarian divisions, promote objectivity and patriotism and in the end Nigeria will be a better place for us and our Children.

Bus Preacher Beaten To Coma In
Lagos After Condoms Fell Out
From Bible
Mayhem broke out at Toyota Bus stop, in
front of the popular Ladipo Spare parts
market, this morning, when a Bus Preacher
was dragged out of a bus and beaten to a
coma after Condoms allegedly fell out of his
bible as he preached the ‘Word of God’.
The Pastor had embarked on his journey at
Apapa and proceeded to preach to the people
on thebus, using very strong words like “If
you wear trouser you’ll go to hell! The Devil
invented Make up! Weave on is from Marine
Kingdom! If you have pre-marital s*x you
will burn in hell and your skin will peel!”
The people in the bus were so moved; some
started falling under the anointing. Our eye
witness, Mr. John Mbakogu, who was on his
way to his shop at Ladipo told us:
“People were just falling as he was
layinghands. One man even fell out of the
bus under the influence of the Spirit. It was
amazing – until he raised his hands to cast
demons out of one girl, and 2 Durex condoms
fell out”
The angry men on the bus who had been
having pangs of guilt due to the pastor’s
preaching about s*x suddenly got really
angry and pounced on the pastor, who allof a
sudden started shouting “I also preach safe
s*x! Safe s*x is good!”
Too late.
Policemen had to be called to the scene to
save the pastors life. So far 2 arrests have
been made, and the Condoms have been kept
as evidence
