Dear sir
My name is okeke stephen, with gis registration number: GI-RIV-POR-01711 from porharcout, rivers state. I wrote and passed the forecom/Gis test, participated in the verification exercise, opened an account number with UBA and forwarded same to sure-p when i was requested to do so by sure-p through sms.

However, a friend i met on the verification day called me on friday informing me that he has received an alert for november stipend, i have waited since friday till now but i have not gotten any alert for my own stipend. Please sir/ma, i want to know my own fate.

I have been jobless since i graduated from the university and has been turned to an object of mockery by those who do not know what is obtainable in the society today. Kindly assist me to rectify whatever the problem might be so that i will follow others to rejoice or match me with another company. I studied computer science.

Thank you very much as you help me.

PoliticsObasanjo Praises Gani Fawehinmi, Rubbishes Soyinka, Chukwumerije In New Book by Rizstar(op): 12:03pm On Dec 13, 2014
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has showered praises on late Gani Fawehinmi, lawyer and activist, who was a thorn in the flesh of successive administrations in Nigeria, describing him as one of the most genuine politico-social critics in the history of the country.

Mr. Obasanjo was effusive in his praise of Mr. Fawehinmi just as he lampooned Nobel Laureate, Wole Soyinka, and Senator Uche Chukwumerije, describing them as self-serving activists.

Writing in his new autobiography, My Watch, the former president said the late Senior Advocate of Nigeria was not just a critic of his government, but was also the counsel to his ex-wife, Remi, during the couple’s messy divorce.

“Gani was to me a fearless, genuine politico-social critic, who drew no distinction between friends and associates or on ethnicity, geography or religion,” Mr. Obasanjo wrote. “He believed in what he did and did what he believed.”

Mr. Obasanjo also commended Mr. Gani for always speaking up when everyone else was silent, especially on matters of injustice.

He alleged that his ex-wife, Remi, sought the services of Mr. Fawehinmi in order to scandalize him as a senior military officer and a minister in government, but that he (Obasanjo) equally secured Mr. Fawehinmi’s match in Kehinde Sofola.

“But that issue did not diminish my respect for Gani,” he said.

Mr. Obasanjo described Mr. Fawehinmi as an advocate for the poor and the oppressed.

He said the vacuum left by the late legal luminary was yet to be filled in Nigeria.

Mr. Fawehinmi died on September 5, 2009, after a prolonged battle with lung cancer. He was 71.

Soyinka the “aparo” hunter
Prof Wole SoyinkaProf Wole Soyinka

On the other hand, Mr. Obasanjo described the nation’s only Nobel laureate, Wole Soyinka, as “a self-serving critic” who always loved to take the lead on all matters.

“For Wole, no one can be good, nor can anything be spot-on politically except that which emanates from him or is ordained by him,” Mr. Obasanjo wrote. “His friends and loved ones will always be right and correct no matter what they do or fail to do.”

Mr. Obasanjo said he found the Professor of Literature “a misfit as a political analyst, commentator or critic,” adding that it was good that Mr. Soyinka did not go into politics.

“He is surely a better wine connoisseur and a more successful “aparo” (guinea fowl) hunter than a political critic, not to talk of what he would do as a politician,” Mr. Obasanjo said. “I take him seriously on almost all issues except on the political particularly Nigerian politics.”

He, however, noted that the Nobel laureate appeared to have ‘mellowed’ down since turning 80 recently.

As he prayed that Mr. Soyinka celebrates the centenary of his birth on earth, Mr. Obasanjo also stated, “If I go before him, I will bid him welcome when he arrives at the great beyond. I hope he would do the same if he succeeds in getting there before me and we find ourselves on the same side of the divide.”

Chukwumerije lost both “fire” and “brand”
Sen. Uche ChukwumerijeSen. Uche Chukwumerije

On Mr. Chukwumerije, Mr. Obasanjo said the senator as a younger person used to be sincere, fearless and uncompromising but as he grew older and the reality of life dawned on him with the weight of family responsibility “his pen, if not his mouth, gradually blunted and the fire in him started to dim”.

Mr. Obasanjo also said it then became easy to sway the once fiery, obstinate critic and he became a tool of whoever needed to use him.

“Wittingly or unwittingly, he began to do the bidding of the lurer,” he said. “In the process, the intrepidity waned and the fearlessness disappeared. He became called and coiled.”

He added that by joining politics, Mr. Chukwumerije sacrificed not only the “fire” in him, but also the “brand,” adding that the real Mr. Chukwumerije that was known in the past was gone.

HealthIsraelis Invent Newwound-closure Method by Rizstar(op): 9:26pm On Dec 08, 2014
After Thousands Of Years Of Stitching, Health News Israelis Invent New Wound-Closure Method.

When it comes to treating large, open wounds, not much has changed in the past five thousand years. Just as the ancient Egyptians used needles and
thread to patch up their wounded, doctors employ the same stitching ‘technology’ today to prevent infection and facilitate healing. Nonetheless, when
a wound is too big, too complex, or when the patient is subject to a higher mortality rate, the average suture kprocedure just doesn’t do it.

While treating numerous casualties in his capacity as chief of plastic surgerybat Israel’s Hillel Yaffe Medical Center in Hadera, Dr. Moris Topaz realized that sutures could not effectively seal cuts and fasten the skin together for proper healing. According to him, in the majority of cases, surgery was the only viable solution to treat and close
complex wounds, which led Dr. Topaz to develop a unique method to securewound closure, called TopClosure .

An invaluable medical tool already being applied in Israeli hospitals, TopClosure works by first stretching out the skin around the wound to avoid the need for skin grafts, and second by ensuring that
the wound scars in an aesthetic and healthy fashion. According to Dr. Topaz, it’s time to bid farewell to skin grafts, surgery and stitches for complex wounds, and to welcome a new method that he hopes will soon become the standard in severe wound treatment. Reducing tension to facilitate healthier healing.

The TopClosure tension-reduction system consists of two main parts: fastening cables and attachable clasps. The cables come in a variety of lengths
to accommodate the size of the wound, and each clasp contains an adhesive bottom to mount onto the skin, as well as hole for staples if additional support is needed. The two clasps are placed facing each other on opposing sides of an open wound, much like two supporting ends of a bridge. A cable is
strung through the clasps, drawing the skin tissues together until they eventually close. Stitches are then
applied over this temporarily facilitated enclosure as the final seal.

“It’s actually a new method of closing wounds,” says Dr. Topaz. “Suturing, for me, is an anachronistic issue – we should not close wounds with sutures;
we need to close them with this kind of system.”
Made with a special polymer that’s been tested to be durable and supportive for suture, TopClosure is specifically designed to collapse just before too much tension starts tearing skin tissues, as stitching big wounds may do. Taking into account the bio-mechanical properties of the skin, TopClosure’s system claims to take advantage of the elastic properties of the skin to optimize wound closure, be it naturally or with surgery.

According to Dr. Topaz, “[TopClosure] places one-hundred thousand times less tension on the skin
than a suture,” he continues, “If I do it with suture, it would be very painful pulling for the patient.” Part of Topaz’s medical repertoire for years Indeed, TopClosure’s unique method is likely to improve the current suture practice significantly. The method can
be used before surgery to prepare the skin incisions, during surgery to relieve tension on the skin, and after surgery as additional fastening support along with stitches, to speed up the healing process as a whole. A kind of modern tourniquet, TopClosure can and already is being used in field hospitals to
temporarily treat soldier’s combat wounds and prevent immediate infection as they await proper medical care.

The Cool Way of using the product already for years, the marketed version of the TopClosure tension-relief system took him and his team about one month to develop as a physical product, but several years for
improvements. By documenting every suture surgery he’s performed while using TopClosure, Dr. Topaz has built an extensive record of the different types of wounds, body location, patients, and even situations in which the TopClosure method proved effective, as well as those in which it didn’t.

Although complicated and long suture surgeries will require an ‘invasive’ use of TopClosure, which means using staples to provide additional mounting support for the clasps, the potential scars left behind by staples are minor compared to the deep scarring caused by strained suture pulling and/or skin grafts. Furthermore, infections can still occur around the TopClosure system if the clasps are not closely observed during the healing process. "The most important thing about TopClosure is its simplicity,” Dr. Topaz said. “Doctors commonly say, ‘Why didn’t we think of this earlier?’ My wish is that it would be exposed to every doctor and every patient as an emerging technology that can be applied anywhere
in the world without sophisticated plastic surgery procedures.”

Currently, TopClosure is publishing more updated cases of its use in medical journals. Yet, given the understandably conservative culture of the medical
world, it will take time before TopClosure is accepted as a legitimate and commonplace apparatus among
surgeons around the world. In the meantime, three different models of TopClosure are available for purchaseon the company’s official website.

CultureGadhimai Hindu Festival: More Than 5,000 Buffaloesslaughtered In A Day by Rizstar(op): 10:07pm On Nov 29, 2014
Gadhimai Hindu festival: more than 5,000 buffaloes
slaughtered in a day.

The ritual in Nepal has been condemned as
'unparalleled religious madness'
The slaughter of more than 5,000 buffaloes
at the Gadhimai Hindu festival in Nepal
has drawn global condemnation from
animal charities.
Many more buffaloes and farm animals
including chickens, goats and pigs are due
to be killed as part of what is thought to be
the world’s largest animal sacrifice ritual.
Devotees believe the event brings good
luck and will encourage Gadhimai, the
Hindu goddess of power, to answer their
wishes.
Several charities had worked to stop the
slaughter – the first of its kind since an
estimated 200,000 animals and birds were
sacrificed in 2009 – but only succeeded in
pressuring the Indian Government into
stopping animals being transported across
the border.
Joanna Lumley is among the celebrities
opposing the festival and led a protest in
London last month with the charity
Compassion in World Farming.

Farming against Gadhimai in London
At a rally outside the Nepalese embassy,
she said: “I love Nepal – both the land and
its people. The Gadhimai animal sacrifice
festival entails horrendous animal
suffering and is a complete anomaly in this
wonderful country.”
The ritual begins before dawn in the fields
outside Gadhimai temple in Bariyarpur,
where a priest trickles his own blood
combined with that of a rat, chicken,
pigeon, goat, and pig.

innocents'
Thousands of vehicles packed with families
carrying goats and birds intended for
sacrifice travelled along the road leading to
the temple on Friday.
To end the first day of the event,
thousands of buffaloes were decapitated by
a group of specially chosen men using
curved kukri knives.

as he looks for an animal to kill during a
mass slaughter of buffaloes for the

“The sights and sounds are unimaginable,”
wrote Jayasimha Nuggehalli director of the
Indian branch of the Humane Society
International. “Pools of blood, animals
bellowing in pain and panic, wide-eyed
children looking on, devotees covered in
animal blood, and some people even
drinking blood from the headless but still
warm carcasses.”
Shristi Singh Shrestha, an animal rights
activist with Animal Welfare Network
Nepal, told the Guardian she felt “defeated”
because the group was unable to stop the
slaughter but the number of killed livestock
was falling.
“However, the positive thing is that the
number of animals killed has come down…
we hope there will be no killing of any
animal at the next festival,” she said.
An Italian charity, Partito EcoAnimalista,
called Gadhimai “unparalleled religious
madness”, saying the buffaloes are not
given food or water for several days before
the slaughter to make them docile and
weak.
Peta also launched a petition calling for the
“horrifying display of violence” to be
stopped.
Its letter read: “The frenzied slaughter of
hundreds of thousands of goats, chickens,
buffalo and other animals only tarnishes
Nepal's international reputation. Numerous
animals, already weakened by their long
journeys, die from exhaustion, starvation
or dehydration before the massacre
begins.”
Several Hindu leaders have also argued
that the ritual goes against core religious
beliefs.
Surya Upadhya, chairman of the Nepalese
Hindu Forum in the UK, said: “The
Nepalese Hindu Forum in the UK
completely opposes animal sacrifice as
Hinduism does not sanction the killing of
living beings.
“There should not be any place for this
inhumane, barbaric sacrifice of innocent
animals in the name of any religion”.
