WHAT of the Middle Easterners? Islam different there too?
If you know about only your religion and think your religion is better than others then it's a problem.the educational system from secondary splits the class in two ,Islamic studies and Christian religious studies ,that was the beginning of the problems.As a Christian or Muslim you need yo know about other people's religion ,so that is helps, in your social interaction and socialization.you can't say your religion is the best and the rest are unbelievers,.You need to know about Christianity a little ,Islam,Shintoism,buddishism, Hinduism,ifa ,so when you come accross them ,you already know and intreract well based on does things you already know or read about it.you cannot say your religion is superior to others.the northners don't have ideas about other people belives,they think their religion is superior and the best.

Hahaha, lol, look at who's digging up history whereas she knows zilch, oh how pathetic!

Let me bother myself a little to elucidate you, Awolowo was serving a jail term in Calabar prison when Ojukwu declared the republic of Biafra, he released all political prisoners in the eastern region (Brafia territory) including Awo on the agreement of declaring the western region an independent entity once he got home but guess what happened? He bluntly reneged on the agreement for paltry ministerial appointment and the promise of making him Nigeria's president,.

What a sabotage! Well he's even regretting that decision in the grave till today, he was never given the presidency as promised by the north and he died as a result of northern persecution. What an irony and tragedy!

Go investigate well before coming out to the public to have a shambolic display of ignorance.
How did you get you own information,that he was released by ojukwu and not gowon.

I have never seen or heard about anyone threatened with death for abandoning Christianity. A lot of reorientation need to by done within Islam! Many things about the religion are so much incompatible with 21st century.

The fact is that many laws and beliefs in Islam were shaped by the civilization of the time of Muhammed. A lot of socio-cultural revolution and civilization has taken place since that time; this is a major reason why many people are having problems with the religion today.

NB: Before any hypocritical Muslim quote me, please show me what the Koran and the Hadiths say about apostasy undecided. The continuous practice of a religion should never be by force even when you are born into such religion. angry
Islam is different from an hausa fulani man, separate the two.

They should have left the market the way it was before, but do mild renovations instead. Tejuosho market is now a shadow of itself.

Business › NPA To Implement Call-up System To End Apapa Gridlock by olas24u(op): 8:09pm On Apr 12, 2019
Eromosele Abiodun

In a bid to find a lasting solution to the Apapa gridlock, the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) has concluded plan to implement call-up system for trucks entering the ports for goods delivery from August this year.

For the call-up system to be effective, THISDAY learnt that officers and men of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) may vacate the Lilypond terminal for the facility to be converted to a park for trucks.



The Lilypond terminal based in Ijora Lagos is a dry port with a full-fledged command of customs and other security agencies.

THISDAY checks revealed that the call-up-system would have taken off before now, but for the need to protect the shoreline at the Tin Can Island port area.

NPA’s General Manager, Corporate and Strategic Communication, Adams Jatto, confirmed the plan when he told journalists in Lagos that the system would go a long way in addressing the traffic gridlock in Apapa.

According to Jatto, “We have concluded the procurement process to be able to engage our investors to manage the truck park. So with this, I believe we should be able to have something on ground for people to be proud of. Call-up system is not just the areas we are looking at, for us to ease the congestion along ports access roads.

“It is a kind of temporary measure for us to ensure that we have a free flow on the axis that lead to the ports. The call-up system is for us to be able to have truck parks along ports area and some of the truck owners have assured us that they have truck parks, where they can park their trucks.

“A call-up system is to ensure that in each of the areas where there are truck parks, the trucks are there and when it is time for them to come to the ports, we have to adopt the call-up system to call them. On the basis of this, we will be able to streamline the trucks coming into the ports, to ease congestion.”

Jatto said the management of NPA led by Bala-Usman has always been desirous to address issues of the port access roads in Apapa, through sustainable road construction.

“A truck terminal park had been constructed at Tin-Can Island port, but the shoreline protection was not done. The Federal Ministry of Works had re-awarded the contract for completion. Our Managing Director/CEO, Ms Hadiza Bala-Usman had taken a bold step to ensure that the truck terminal will be managed by Public Private Partnership (PPP).
“That is where we are having real automation of call-up system. The management of NPA is working toward ensuring that Lillypond terminal is converted to a truck transit park for easy flow of traffic, along ports access road in Lagos,” he stated.

He said that with the construction of the Lagos Port Complex road under short term, the medium term plan would be to construct the Apapa Creek Road up to Tin-Can Island Port and Mile-2.

The road, he said, would be constructed from Mile 2 to Oworonsoki, adding that the construction would be handled by the Federal Ministry of Power, Works and Housing.

Meanwhile, THISDAY learnt that the customs officers at the facility will be asked to leave, adding that management of the service might be forced to redeploy its personnel to various commands under zone A.
A source who did not want his name in print, disclosed that letters have been written to the Area Controller of Lilypond Command over the development.

Nigerian exporters had recently raised the alarm that cashew nuts valued at $300 million have been trapped at the Lagos Ports and called on the federal government to come to their aid by addressing the challenges of congestion and inefficiency at Lagos’ ports, which have affected exports.

The exporters said gridlock and inefficiency at the ports of Nigeria’s commercial hub, Lagos, delayed shipment of 50,000 tonnes of cashew nuts and is threatening this year’s output as traders are cash-strapped.https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2019/04/12/npa-to-implement-call-up-system-to-end-apapa-gridlock/
Science/Technology › The Tech World’s Best CEO? Microsoft’s Nadella, Hands Down. by olas24u(op): 7:43pm On Apr 12, 2019
Over the years, plenty of kudos have been directed at the people at the helms of big tech companies. Until recent hard times, Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg, Amazon’s Jeff Bezos, Apple’s Tim Cook and Alphabet’s Sergey Brin, among others, have been fawned over by a compliant press and portrayed as visionaries and great leaders.

But the world’s best tech leader hasn’t been lionized, not even now that the tech giant he has guided for almost five years remains relatively stable amid jumpy markets. I’m talking about Microsoft’s unassuming CEO, Satya Nadella, who as often as not has been considered merely a steady, somewhat boring functionary. Take a look, though, at what he has done at the company through 2018. He has successfully turned Microsoft from a plodding, increasingly irrelevant company into a tech powerhouse that’s surprisingly nimble and more willing to change course than its competitors.

To fully recognize how much Nadella has transformed Microsoft, look back to February 2014, when he took over as CEO from Steve Ballmer. He was saddled with Ballmer’s decision to buy Nokia for $7.2 billion to prop up a failing Windows Phone business — as well as the decision to pour immense amounts of money and time into a mobile operating system that no one wanted to use.

[ Further reading: Windows 10 October 2018 update: Key enterprise features ]
Less than a year and a half before that, the company had released Window 8, one of the worst versions of Windows ever built. Given the pace of change in the tech world, it’s easy to forget how big a problem that was a few short years ago. Windows was still Microsoft’s cash cow, seen as the core of the company. Fatefully, Ballmer’s Microsoft had borrowed elements of Windows Phone’s Metro UI, but the way that Windows 8 was most like Windows Phone was that hardly anyone wanted to use it.

At the same time as the Windows 8 rollout, Microsoft had introduced the Surface tablet, which was widely derided as overpriced, underpowered and serving little purpose.

The company culture had stagnated, clinging to past days of Microsoft glory (and antitrust ignominy). Ballmer’s arrogant belief that Microsoft could solve any problem by using Windows as a battering ram still ruled.

Nadella had a lot to prove to employees, because he was only the third Microsoft CEO since the company’s founding in 1975 — and the first who hadn’t been associated with the company’s one-time dominance of the tech world.

[ Got a spare hour? Take this online course and learn how to install and configure Windows 10 with the options you need. ]
Nice guy, said the business press, one who was cloud-savvy and steeped in both tech and business experience. But no one was expecting to pile accolades upon his head any time soon.

By any measure, though, Nadella has been a roaring success. He took the hard choice to kill off Windows Phone (hard because no one takes such a massive write-off lightly), finally freeing the company from throwing billions of dollars down a rathole. Not only did that save Microsoft money, but it also allowed the company to use its developer resources for technologies more important to its success.

Less unexpectedly, he made the cloud central to Microsoft’s business, but the extent to which he let the cloud focus overtake the company’s Windows-centric focus was breathtaking, given the sacrosanct status the OS had always enjoyed. That has paid off big time. Microsoft is now a leader in cloud computing. The company’s commercial cloud revenue was $8.5 billion for the first quarter of 2019, up 47% compared to a year previous. And that understates the way in which the cloud permeates the company’s offerings. Office has been turned into primarily a cloud-based subscription service, and business is booming as a result. Windows has become, to a certain extent, cloud-based as well, because it is now delivered and updated via the cloud. Think of it as Windows as a service.

Meanwhile, Nadella has turned the Surface into a hit by changing its design and focus. Today, Surface hardware is a billion-dollar business, something that was unthinkable when the poorly designed tablet was first rolled out.

Nadella has been willing to adapt to a changing world and scale back Microsoft’s investments in high-profile products that aren’t panning out — something Ballmer never did. So he’s thrown in the towel on trying to get Cortana to compete with Amazon’s Alexa and Google Home. Instead, Cortana will use its smarts behind the scenes to create ways to make Microsoft’s other products more useful.

Under Nadella, Microsoft has accepted open-source software and begun to work with it — anathema to Gates and Ballmer. The company’s popular SQL Server database, for example, runs on Linux. Here’s how John “JG” Chirapurath, a general manager with Microsoft, explains why the company decided to do that: “To keep flexibility and choice is absolutely critical. We can’t walk into a customer today and offer them a data platform that exclusively works with Windows or, say, C#. We’ve got to go in there and say, can we meet you on your terms, and what does that look like?” In pre-Nadella days, that would have been seen as apostasy.

The result of all this? Under Ballmer, Microsoft’s stock had stagnated. It has nearly tripled since Nadella took over, from $37 to around $100 now, depending on the day. Even during the December market crash, the stock held much of its value. And during a brief period in November 2018, Microsoft became the world’s most valuable company, as its stock price rose and Apple’s dropped.

Anyone who was really paying attention when Nadella took over as CEO shouldn’t be surprised by any of this. According to CNBC, Microsoft Chairman John Thompson said at an event this summer hosted by Lightspeed Venture Partners that in Nadella’s first public appearance in 2014 as Microsoft CEO, “He made a pronouncement on day one — the world is about cloud first, mobile first. He never mentioned Windows one time. … What he was telling the world was we at Microsoft have to be ready to embrace the cloud, and we at Microsoft have to be more about our technology running on all platforms."

Nadella has delivered on all that, and more. So you may not hear Nadella make grand public pronouncements. He’s not being hailed as a visionary. But while CEOs at other big tech courses stumble, Nadella has crafted and overseen Microsoft’s transition from an also-ran to a front-runner. Even better times might be ahead.https://www.computerworld.com/article/3331853/the-tech-world-s-best-ceo-microsoft-s-nadella-hands-down.html
Science/Technology › Ben Bruce Introduces Electric Car Bill To The Senate, As Nigerians React by olas24u(op): 7:16pm On Apr 12, 2019
Nigerian senator, Ben Murray-Bruce, who represents Bayelsa East Senatorial District, has taken to his Twitter page to share two of the bills he recently proposed before the Senate.

One of the bills he proposed is the Electric Car Bill, which is basically seeking that the National Assembly approves the use of electric cars in Nigeria.




The reason for the bill
According to Bruce, the reason for proposing the bill is to help Nigeria actualise a clean energy policy, encourage the use of modern technology, de-emphasise on oil consumption, and also reduce air pollution.

Nigerians reaction to the bill
Interestingly, some Nigerians on Twitter “dragged” the senator because they felt that his proposed bill is a misplaced priority. Some people specifically questioned the need for electric cars in a country that cannot boast of 24 hours electricity supply.

Moving forward
In as much electric cars are not exactly what many Nigerians need at the moment, it is important to consider the fact that Senator Bruce might be finding solutions to future problems.

Many countries are discovering crude oil, even as the world-wide usage of electric cars keeps rising. Nigerians will, therefore, have to find an alternative to their daily use of oil. Doing this will also help the country contribute to the fight against climate change.

It should be noted that some Nigerians on Twitter also agreed with his idea, arguing that it’s time the country starts thinking about the future, along with other countries who are already using technology to their advantage.

I beg to differ, I think the bill is worth passing..if we don't start thinking in this direction, the world would leave us behind b4 we know it & our oil will be obsolete.

Gas is the way forward + clean generated energy is where the world is tilting to, because of Climate Change.

Other countries are doing it
According to reports, Norway is introducing zero-emission cars in their roads by 2025.

It is also worthy to note that electronic vehicle sales in Norway in March outstripped sales of gasoline and diesel cars combined. This development confirms the Nordic country’s undisputed global leadership in the EV market. It also sets it on the road to achieving its national goal of having all cars sold by 2025 be zero emission.

Other countries such as China have also been making effort to introduce more electric cars onto their roads. Therefore, it’s about time Nigeria does same.

Because illegal crude oil refiners survive by indulging in oil bunkering. it would be a different case if they drill the soil deep into the earth to source for crude oil.
I only intend to answer your first question in a direct manner. I'm not in support of any form of unauthorized mining
if osun should start ilegal minning ,you will see soliders invade the place and arrest them and take them to abuja.

Which one be "high witness"? Lol

1 Awolowo used old man sense on Ojukwu then went to be carrying bag for gowon. He used Igbos to settle his quarrel with the FG

2. Awolowo/Gowon used policy of hunger as a weapon of was and millions of Igbo children starved to death

3. After the war Awolowo introduced indigenisation policy that favoured yorubas and paid £20 to Igbos whether or not the person had millions in the bank

Abeg which lie did Achebe tell?
Sorry,I meant eye witness ,on the issues you have raised.awolowo was in jail for 10years,to create unity in the country during the war he released him from prision and he became the finance minister.He discouraged Victor banjo from coming to the west.
Policy of hunger:Food and humanitarian aid were being delivered,but the soliders of baifra were feeding fat on the supplies and storing the food to entice recruits,it was attractive to be in the army and have food to eat.
20pounds: awolowo was the finance minister and the cbn in Benin was invaded and looted by the baifran army,so the currency changed ,so that they could not use the money to procure weapons.ibos claims of money was false and they were told to write names and amount.yhe total money was more than the reserve of Nigeria,.so they reached a decision to pay everybody.

You see, you keep repeating history that wouldn't help your present existence, if we must talk of the civil war then we must start from the beginning, the very cause of it.

But discussing the cause, who was wrong or right wouldn't help issues at presence, Ojukwu, Awolowo, Achebe etc are all dead, also most of the major actors in the war. If you must present anything acceptable here it must be a contemporary issues and not dead history.
The igbo youths have been so damaged,they cannot make friends to end and unite.
If the Midwest wasn't involved in the war why then did the Nigerian authority used their soldiers to prosecute the war? Why then did the Nigerian troops massacred Midwesterners because of their Igbo origin?

Clarity and fact will always elude you if you always view things from tribalistic perspective. If you're biased and not neutral.

How can you prove that Igbos like dominance? Just with a few sentence, prove it for all to see.

Dominance has nothing to do with your mind set, it's either proven or strike out as a mere self conflicting complex issue, inferiority of superiority.
The Midwest. Was not part of the war,and ojukwu sent soliders to capture the place ,he insisted on making major okonkwo a colonel the governor ,instead of a citizen of of midwest.secondly ,people in the Midwest region were not recruited into the biafran army but you wanted them has biafrans.thirdly you claim Lagos is no mansland..lastly opara was made premier instead of eyo yita because eyo yita was not igbo.

It is a common knowledge that the newly touted southern unity is geared towards achieving certain sectional goal, it is purely based on selfishness and self aggrandizement on the part of the SW, for peace to reign, for unity to return, for truth to prevail and for progress be assured, if power had to return to the south anytime soon, it must be to the SE otherwise, NO DEAL, North should rule for ever.
Igbos want statepolice,yorubas want regional police,igbos want the scrapping of local government,yorubas want local government,igbos want state of origin cancelled and state of resident rights,igbos want 6 vice president .your agenda is different and it is to maintain the system of claming want does not belong to you .check ohananze on restructuring on YouTube channel.

Should that alignment which happened long time continue to be a template for current betrayal the south is suffering today?

You read stories and decided to take sides based on tribal affiliation, how are you sure that Azikiwe was jealous of Awolowo, what if your view on that happens to be the opposite?
Why sound too sure for what you didn't experience or witnessed?

If we must forge ahead, we must be willing to throw off all blames and find a common ground if not, then we're bound to stick to status quo to the detriment of all.
Awolowo was jailed for 10years and releasee to become a finance minister,they blamed him for losing the war.

We want restructuring and going back to 1963 constitution.fiscal federalism, competition .that is the agenda,not power.what is power with this structure?and you want to continue like this,all super jobs are gotten by hausa fulani people while other educated people are always looking for visa .

But he put restructuring into his own agenda or plans. You followed someone that doesn't even have it in his plan and you are saying you want restructuring undecided

The last time I checked Buhari is from north and they both enjoyed what you mentioned above. Even Buhari enjoyed it 10 times more than atiku. Between the two, I support someone that have good plan for the country which is restructuring.
Even APC has restructuring on its manifesto ,so what is the big deal about is plan.he his a fulani man ,they benefit from it.how much does adamawa contribute to Nigeria?apapa local government is richer than adamawa state,but when they are sharing they share according to to the number of state and local governments, and it is an hausa fulanian that will do that,you must be kidding.

I wonder what your problem is, the whole problems we're facing in Nigeria today were being caused by the Igbos right? Thank you, Yorubas are totally exonerated right? Thank you.

What more could explain hypocrisy and bigotry to a sticking point?

Typical of humans, so comfortable in passing on blames and responsibilities to another, the slogan "blame the other man" is ever manifesting in their day to day activities and at the end, the irrefutable truth will stare so glaringly before their faces.

Miss Ola, all I want to tell you is, continue with your whatever illusion, time will tell.

PERIOD!!!!!!
If you don't know where you coming from ,you will not know where you are going, awolowo, azikiwe were highly educated and would have made things happen,but azikiwe was too jealous of him and align with the hausas think ing he will benefit but they gave him a ceremonial position and he was was waiting and planning to get to power ,he never did.if he had teamed up and meant well,these hausa fulanis won't have been in power forever.
