A dullard can't not give what he doesn't have.

Nigeria problem is bigger than a waec searching cow herder. Kemi is not the problem, the problem is our dullard president who think that Germany is still West Germany.


Buhari go back home


Buhari and failure

After thought°°°°°

Being the biggest economy is great. It is good. But for the level Nigeria needs to be, to be able to lift her people out of gnashing poverty, debilitating ignorance and mental penury, I do not think Africa should be the yardstick of achievements worth celebrating.

Nigeria should gun for at least top 25 biggest economy in the world to make a dent on visible poverty and mold the quality of national psyche that will propel its people to pull their weights in legitimate appropriation of the global commonwealth.

Numbers alone do not tell the story.

---------------------------
Do not be deceived by numbers. Let your daily experience at rat race for survival guide and educate you.

In real terms, the top three African economies of Nigeria, South Africa and Egypt are stagnating even though they are the biggest. They have not had any growth nor positive initiative in a while. They are just there. It is like a one eyed man in the land of the blind with severe cataract, night and colour blindness in the very eye that is not blind.They are big because others are small, and do not have the capacity to grow at levels that may tilt the cart soonest.

Is also tells the story of the gap between Africa's biggest economies and the rest. If not the better performing economies would have overtaken these three laggards.

Numbers can be deceiving and always numb our senses from looking at things from a higher realm thereby asking the right questions such as;

1. Is the size of Nigeria's economy today not lesser than what it was two years ago.

2. Is the income per capita of the average Nigerian today not lesser than what it was two years ago?.

3.Is the quality of life of the average Nigeria not poorer than what it was two years ago?

A look at where Nigeria is today on the global misery index shows that the Nigerian is worse off today that he was two years ago.

Please this is not about APC and PDP. If you don't understand the breaking down of basic economics simply jump and pass.

That you are the richest man among very poor people does not make you rich in actual sense. You are just rich relative to the mass poverty around you.

But that does not fully explain this deception of numbers.

For example, even though the Nigerian economy is bigger than say that of Cote d'Ivoire,Rwanda and Ethiopia, three among Africa's fastest growing economies.

The average Nigerian is poorer,less hopeful,less optimistic about his tomorrow and sadder than the average Ivorian.Inspite of the fact that the Nigerian economy is bigger.

A closer look at some calibrations at the IMF/World Bank will make you laugh. For example, those countries tagged lower Middle Income are countries living on above $2.7 per day. Even with a very depressed Naira this is less than N1500.

Can it get a cup of Espresso at Starbucks?

Yet you think country whose citizens are living on such a miserly bracket should be commended.And stupidly enough, such countries do celebrate at being so identified.

IMF/World Bank do not make sense most of the time. Especially to those who truly care about human welfare. It may make sense to the interests the Bretton woods institutions represent.

But does that then mean that it is a bad news for the Nigerian econony to be the biggest in Africa?

No....it is not a bad news.

What is the bad news is that an economy that is in recession for almost a year is still the biggest in the continent.

It is a shame for Africa.

What this means is that the two other economies that should overtake it are suffering different ailments of their own.

The best illustration is like a man with diarrhoea who is in a 100 meters huddle competition with two other contestants who are crippled. You can visit the loo a hundred times and still return to the track and finish first.

The joke is on you if you over celebrate such gold medal.

The long run is made up of several short runs. And one of the short runs is whether your life as a Nigerian in Nigeria has improved in the last two years.

Only then will being the biggest economy make sense.

6. CHARLES TAYLOR (100 000-150 000 DEATHS)


The former President of Liberia who was elected in 1997 (allegedly by terrorizing the population) has been connected with gross human rights violations, war crimes and crimes against the humanity in the civil war in the neighboring Sierra Leone as well as at home during the Second Liberian Civil War that lasted from 1999 to 2003. He is currently being trialled for his involvement in the Sierra Leone civil war at the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague.

5. AHMED SÉKOU TOURÉ (100 000-150 00 DEATHS)

was a Guinean political leader; head of the PDG, he was elected as the first President of Guinea, serving from 1958 to his death in 1984. Touré was one of the primary Guinean nationalists involved in gaining independence of the country from France.

In 1960, he declared his Democratic Party Of Guinea (PDG) to be the only legal party in the state and ruled from then on as a virtual dictator. He was nominally re-elected to numerous seven year terms but Guinea had no other political parties, and he imprisoned, killed or exiled his strongest opposition leaders.

Huawei phones are awesome. I've used the Mate 7 for just over a year now and it's almost as good as the first day I got it.
It's same 13mp back camera and 8mp front camera, battery life is ten hours on maximum use (when I watch movies back to back all day),processor speed is great too and the hardware is durable.

No issues except the OS has only been updated once since I got it. It's still a great phone though..... I wouldn't mind using their products again.

Good job on the Vlog, I learnt some NONbargaining skills.

Huawei phones are killer.... I don't know why Nigeria are not using it. Am currently using Huawei GR5

4. Sani Abacha (100 000-200 000 deaths)

A report on corruption, published in July 1997 by the Berlin-based organisation Transparency International listed Nigeria as the most corrupt nation in the world.

Abacha took office in during a military coup occurred in November 1993, following the annulment of presidential elections in June that year.General Sani Abacha, the Armed Forces Chief of Staff, took power. He annulled the organs of state, banned political parties and dismantled the democratic structures.

International pressure forced General Abacha to announce a three-year timetable for the transition to democracy in October 1995, but the plans were plagued by repeated delays.Local elections held in March 1997 were five months later than planned. Only five political parties were registered of the 15 who applied.Nigerian commission responsible for the transition to democracy announced that Presidential elections would be held on August 1, 1998.

A handover to civilian rule is due to occur by the beginning of October.It was a military tribunal which ordered the execution of Ken Saro-Wiwa and nine other activists in November 1995 , the 26 faced the death penalty.

3. IDI AMIN (25000-30000 DEATHS)

The 3rd President of Uganda was responsible for about 250,000 deaths which were a result of his regime of terror marked by torture, extra-judicial executions, corruption and ethnic persecution. He held power from 1972 to 1979 when he fled the country due to the defeat against Tanzania which he attacked one year earlier. He found refuge in Libya and then in Saudi Arabia where he died in 2003.

2. YAKUBU GOWON (1.1 MILLION DEATHS)


Breakdown: 1 million civilians on the wrong side of a blockade caused by a war of secession in Nigeria and 100,000 soldiers who died in that war.

It starts as many sad stories do with precious beautiful oil. It had been found in the Niger delta where tensions were already high between the Eastern region (led by Ojukwu) and the rest of the country (governed by Yakubu).

A dummy agreement was signed between them called the “Aburi Accord”, but it meant nothing to either leader. Yakubu started to put pressure on the region, and tested how much sway he had in the area versus Ojukwu. Well Ojukwu being no slouch declared secession from the rest of Nigeria and became the “Republic of Biafra”.

This began a war that caused the deaths of 100,000 soldiers, and much worse, a blockade on the region which starved more than 1 million civilians.

Some made horrible decisions, others were just bad presidents, a few were really bloodthirsty extremists, whilst a couple were warmongers. All of these guys are a mix who in the last 130 years have been the architects of the most horrific genocides, systematic murders, blockades, brutal wars, and policy reforms history has ever recorded. Here are the ten most murderous African presidents of all time.


1. MENGISTU HAILE MARIAM (400,000 – 1.5 MILLION DEATHS)


Breakdown: As president of Ethiopia and colonel of  “the Derg” (communist militia) Mengitsu systematically killed those against him in the “Red Terror” campaign.

Mengistu Haile Mariam is (as in still alive) a politician who presided over Ethiopia from 1974 to 1991. The way he got into power was by smothering the previous president Haile Selassie although he has denied those rumors. His biggest claim to fame is the Ethiopian Red Terror which was a campaign of repression led by the Derg (communist militia in Ethiopia). In his introductory speech Mengitsu yelled, “Death to counterrevolutionaries! Death to the EPRP!” Then he took three bottles filled with blood and threw them to the ground.

It was an auspicious beginning to say the least. Thousands were killed and found dead on the streets in the years that followed. Much of the murdering can be attributed to the friendly neighborhood watch there known as “Kebeles”. As if killing innocents wasn’t enough they would then charge the family a tax to return the dead body to them. The tax was aptly named “the wasted bullet”! Are you serious Mengitsu? However there was an even more gruesome fate of being left on the street where wild hyenas would fight over the dead. The campaign has been described as one of the worst mass murders ever in Africa. Mengitsu is even known to have garroted people to death

hello IPAF

who is Freeze or Fridge if I may ask

…Seek import waivers

The Chairman of Association of Accredited Speed Limiters Vendors in Nigeria, Alhaji Ibrahim Askirama, has disclosed that over two million jobs can be created by companies dealing on vehicle speed limiting device in the country in the next two years.

Alhaji Askirama, who is also the Managing Disrector of Total Unique Services Limited, one of the accredited vendors for the distribution and installation of speed limiter in the country said that apart from saving lives, the introduction of speed limiters could help in creating jobs for the unemployed youths in the country.

The speed limiter vendors boss, who spoke to Vanguard Motoring in Abuja shortly before the take off of advisory enforcement of speed limiting device by the Federal Road Safety Corps, FRSC, said that his company alone had opened offices in 19 states of the federation and trained many young Nigerians on how to install speed-limiting device in vehicles.

He disclosed that before most of their members ventured into vehicle speed limiting device business, some of them were into car tracking and software development business.

According to him, his company alone, Total Unique Services Limited, was targetting creating of 50,000 jobs for the unemployed youths in the country.

“When we started Total Unique Services, we were only seven engineers and we went to the road side mechanics, picked electrical engineers, technical graduates from universities, brought them to our company and trained them on how to install the device,” he said.

So far, he said, his company had trained 10 engineers from every state.

“We train them, licence them so that when there is problem, we can be contacted. This was the reason why we came together to guarantee standard and regularised by FRSC,” he said.

Explaining the quality of speed limiter being installed by his members, Alhaji Askirama noted that they were mainly from European countries like United Kingdom, Germany and Italy, adding that with time most of the suppliers could set up plants in Nigeria.

According to him, the search for vehicle speed-limiting device that meets FRSC specification was not easy as it took them to many countries.

He said: “My search for standard speed-limiting device took my company to Kenya, a country that had used the device in Africa. But unfortunately, when we brought speed governor from Kenya, it did not meet the FRSC standard.

“The speed limiter from Kenya was rejected by FRSC because in the case of accident, information could not be retrieved. We later went to India and their speed limiter made by Ecogas too did not meet FRSC standard. FRSC had insisted on speed limiter that can save information, print information through text messages or PDF. This made us to go to Italy where we got what they wanted a speed limiter that can print, said information and has in-built printer. It can even track the vehicle. Even in the event of an accident the device could indicate if the vehicle was over speeding.

It is like a black box in an aircraft. We were directed to submit our speed limiters to Federal Road Safety Corps, Standard Orgnisation of Nigeria, SON, National Automative Design and Development Council, and Nigeria Society of Engineers, who would certify the standard of the device before it would be certified for use.”

Mr. Askirama, however, noted that the prices of the speed limiters vary as some come with tracker starting from N35,000. But he said that the prices could come down drastically if they can access dollar at official rate.

According to him, “We have told the Corps Marshal that if they want the price of speed limiter to drop, they should allow us to source dollar at official rate. We will install at the price we import”.

Also, he said that the customs duty paid on the device is high at 35% and argued that since it is a life-saving device, the government should grant them waivers so as to make it available at very low price.

The Chairman, who also spoke on the spider technology, said that there is nothing called spider technology, arguing that it was a coinage of a petitioner to the National Assembly.

“He said, “The petitioner, probably wanted to say that there is a technology you can install that can pick the speed of the vehicle. But the question is, how do you trace the offender. The cameras use light, so when there is no light how do you pick the speed?

Have you thought about vandalisation, and the fact that some people will remove the camera and install it in their home. This is a country where railway cables and telecom cables are dug out by vandals. How good are our roads?

congratulations to the Northern hemisphere for they have finally gotten what the elites have been fighting for at the expense of thousands of innocent civilians and children


But the monster they have created in Boko Haram will keep on fighting them. Northern hemisphere will continue to experience bombing like Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Primary schools throughout Nigeria resumed for the first term of the current school year shortly after the Sallah holidays in September 2016, with many Nigerians eager to see the commencement of school feeding involving 5.5 million pupils nationwide.

School feeding was one of the major programmes for which N500 billion was budgeted for 2016. Before the resumption of schools, the Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, flanked by two All Progressive Congress (APC) governors had pronounced in Aso Rock, on June 9, 2016, that the food programme would commence on time. Then in July, Mrs. Abimbola Adesanmi, National Manager of the programme, had also repeated the same promise.

We expressed our skepticism regarding the take-off date of the programme for two reasons. First, we were almost certain that the funds might not be available to execute the Social Welfare Programme (SWP). We felt the 2016 budget was over-ambitious and most of the promises would not be fulfilled this year. Second, we raised questions about the choice of schools which would benefit, and the logistics of supplying those schools in remote areas on a daily basis.

Federal Government officials dismissed these legitimate concerns. In September, the Minister of Finance announced that N70 billion had been released to Mrs. Maryam Uwais, the wife of the former Chief Justice of Nigeria, who is in charge of the SWP. That was a mere 14 per cent of the entire year’s budget; there was no guarantee of more funds being received. That same September, the House of Representatives summoned Uwais wanting to know the details of SWP. She asked the House to give her more time.

By that time it required no rocket science intelligence to know that the SWP, and especially the school feeding component, were in trouble for the reasons we had earlier cautioned the Federal Government. As it is, October will end without food for the 5.5 million children. It may not effectively start before December 2016.

The Buhari administration, like other governments before it, is beginning to realise that good intentions are never enough to govern a country successfully. Good organisation based on sound homework and grassroots knowledge of Nigeria are the ingredients for success.
It is doubtful if any of the managers of this programme is familiar with rural life – which is where most of the 5.5 million pupils needing free food are located. It is impossible to manage well without adequate knowledge and funds availability.

We hope the Federal Government will learn from its blunders of this year and prepare for a more credible implementation of the entire SWP package, particularly the school feeding programme. It will be a major item to assess this regime.

There is a lot of excitement over the dramatic outburst of Aisha Buhari followed by chauvinistic reply of the President, all providing comic relief to the battered nation. The most interesting part of it was the kitchen and inner room position of the first lady, sorry, the wife of Mr President.

While some consider it as being too harsh and relegation of the status of women, others say it is a fact especially from the standpoint of comparative experience of both the President and his wife in governance and taking care of the home. Yet, other see it as a comic relief, a joke to whittle down the gravity of the issues raised by Aisha in the BBC interview.

However, from the standpoint of Islam, the president may not be wrong afterall, just as the religion recognises the rights of woman to work and own money, real estate, or other properties. Whether married or single, she has a right to seek employment, go into politics, she retains her full rights to buy, sell, mortgage or lease any or all her properties. It is nowhere suggested in the Islamic Law that a woman is less important or less dignify simply because she is a female. No!

The extent of her crucial position at home is that since the husband has the responsibility to fend for the family, the wife, has the duty to look after the home, supervises what goes on at home. Her primary role of good upbringing of her children and in being a dutiful wife is placed above every other roles.

She is encouraged to carry out all the duties she takes up with devotion and enthusiasm. Islam regards her role in society as a mother, a wife and as the most sacred and essential one for building a society. Neither maids nor house-helps can possibly take the mother’s place as the educator of an upright, complex free, and carefully-reared children. Such a noble and vital role, which largely shapes the future of nations, cannot be regarded as “lowering the estimation of women” in the society”.

Again, it should be noted that the role of the Muslim woman is clearly defined and outlined in Islam. The duties of a wife toward her husband, according to Islamic law, are well defined. They do not include doing any cleaning, ironing, cooking or any other household work. But it should be noted that she is the second in command of the house in terms of working together to consolidate the matrimony and move the family forward. Marriage is a contractual relationship which allows a man and woman to fulfill their desire in a legitimate way.

So, in essence, Allah (S.W.T) has made men and women different and in terms of roles.

“Men are the protectors and maintainers (qawwamun) of women, because Allah has given men more strength than the women, and because they support them from their means. . .” (Qur’an 4:34)

The Prophet (s.a.w)’s wife, Khadijah (r.a) was a successful businesswoman. His wife Aisha (r.a) was widely renowned as an authority of hadith who memorised and related a large number of hadith.
Muslim women are not only allowed to receive education and work but should be given the opportunities to excel in their areas of expertise, without also losing focus of their primary responsibility of the home front.

Women limitations as leaders

Limitations such as being ineligible for leadership or lead prayers in Islamic circle do not in anyway lower the estimation and dignity of women in general. It is however, related to the differences in the biological and psychological nature of women. Some non-Muslims may disagree with this but that is the standard in Islam.

Consider a medical fact that during the monthly menstrual periods, pregnancy periods, the pre-natal, ante-natal and post-natal periods, of women, the physiological and psychological changes that occur in women may not make them effective in the position of leadership during that period. Of what essence is terminal and ineffective leadership? Islam is a very practical and pragmatic religion that offers answers to every question.

The inconvenience truth is that they may not be there when there is need for them during these periods. All the same, it is not about backwardness as some may say, much as we know that the Great Britain is being led by a woman, who may possibly find a mate in Hilary Clinton of the United States, but the development cannot erode the fact that women are different in nature. If in our clime we agree to cope with the gap as a result of women abandoning their home responsibilities and struggle to carry out the responsibilities of men in the society is a different matter. From this perspective therefore, the President may not be wrong. Just as the President conceded that his wife has more experience in managing the home than he has, his wife cannot contest to be more experience in governance than her husband.

For every Muslim, husband, compassion and dignity of the status of women is a rule.
