Politics / Chaos As House(north) Rejects S’east Development Bill by rollybest(m): 6:53am On Jun 02, 2017
House of Representatives was again thrown into a rowdy session on Thursday, forcing a hasty adjournment of proceedings .
The cause of the rowdiness was the rejection of a bill seeking to establish a South - East Development Commission
The bill failed at the session , which was presided over by the Speaker, Mr . Yakubu Dogara, after it had been debated.
A similar bill to establish the North- East Development Commission had since been passed by the National Assembly, awaiting the assent of President Muhammadu Buhari.
However, South - East lawmakers immediately protested the decision on the grounds that the House could have, at least , allowed the bill to pass the second reading for more views to be collated from Nigerians at a public hearing.
Tension had built up in the House since Wednesday when the bill was billed to be moved for second reading .
However, it was stepped down on Wednesday because the lead sponsor and Deputy Minority Leader of the House , Mr . Chukwuka Onyeama, was unavailable in the chambers .
He returned soon after the bill was stood down.
The bill was re -listed for Thursday ( yesterday) , but again , Onyeama was unavailable just as the bill was to be taken and it had to be stood down a second time in line with the rules of proceedings .
But South -East lawmakers began a loud protest, insisting that the bill must be taken.
In the midst of the rowdiness , Onyeama reappeared in the chambers, just like he did on Wednesday after the bill had been stood down.
Dogara had to bend backwards to approve a motion for the rescission of the earlier ruling stepping down the bill .
The speaker said , “ Let me clarify that it was not as if the bill was stopped . The sponsor of the bill was not around and we followed the rules to step it down.
“ Now that he is here , we will take it. Nobody will shut out anybody because we don’ t have the right to do that. ”
Dogara calmed frayed nerves and opened debate on the bill.
Onyeama, while leading the debate , said the South - East geopolitical zone needed the commission to develop collapsed infrastructure and the damage suffered by the zone as a result of the Nigerian Civil War .
“ The war led to massive destruction of critical infrastructure in the region , including roads, houses and environmental degradation , ” he said .
Onyeama added that the region was worst -hit by erosion and other ecological problems.
The lawmaker stated that the commission would be funded from seven sources.
The first is through “ 15 per cent” of the total monthly statutory allocations due to member states of the commission from the Federation Account.
The second source, he explained, would be from “ three per cent ” of the total budget of any oil - producing company operating onshore and offshore in the South - East states , including gas processing companies.
The third source is from “ three per cent ” of the total annual budget of any solid mineral extracting or mining company operating in the South - East.
The fourth source will come through “ 50 per cent ” of money due to member states of the commission from the Ecological Fund.
Five to seven of the funding sources are ” Such monies as may , from time to time , be granted or lent to or be deposited with the commission by the Federal Government or a state government , any other body or institution , whether local or foreign.
All monies raised for the purpose of the commission by way of gifts , loans, grants - in-aid , testamentary disposition or otherwise .
“ Proceeds from all other assets that may , from time to time , accrue to the commission. ”
All South - East members , who spoke , including Mr . Uzoma Nkem- Abonta, Mr . Henry Nwawuba and Mr . Toby Okechukwu, said they gave “ 100 per cent ” backing to the bill.
For instance , Nkem- Abonta argued that he believed the bill was the solution to the renewed agitation for the Republic of Biafra .
“ We have to stop the crisis that is building up in the South - East before it turns into something else, ” he said .
Members from the South -South , led by the Minority Leader , Mr . Leo Ogor , also supported the bill .
“ Every zone deserves a commission because this country needs to be restructured. We cannot continue this way, ” Ogor told the House .
Mr . Kehinde Agboola , who spoke for the South -West, said , “ History will not forgive us if today we fail to support this bill. ”
However, trouble started when all the lawmakers from the North spoke against the bill .
Members from North -West , North- East and North- Central , all opposed the bill .
For example , Mr . Mohammed Sani -Abdu opposed the bill on the grounds that it was a move to “ divide Nigeria in piecemeal. ”
He observed that coming soon after the government was trying to address the devastation caused by Boko Haram in the North -East, the timing of the bill was wrong .
Sani -Abdu recalled that after the civil war ended in 1970, government made concerted efforts to rebuild the South -East and re -integrate the people into the rest of Nigeria .
He argued that funding of the commission, using “ three per cent” of the annual budget of oil companies operating in the South - East was indirect funding by the Federal Government .
Another member from the North, Mr . Karimi Sunday , said some South - East states were already benefiting from the funding of the Niger Delta Development Commission by the oil companies.
“ Are we going to ask the same oil companies to fund the South - East Development Commission again ?
“ Are we saying that every zone should come up with its own development commission?” he asked .
When Dogara put the bill to a voice vote , he ruled in favour of those rejecting the commission. For clarity purpose , he called the votes twice before bringing down his gavel .
But South -East lawmakers began another round of protests as Dogara handed over proceedings to the Deputy Speaker, Mr . Yussuff Lasun , and left the chambers .
Lasun quickly adjourned the House as the rowdiness worsened.
Outside the chambers, South -East lawmakers continued the protest.
Onyeama threatened that he would resign his position as a leader of the House .
“ I am a leader in this House ; you can’ t just kill my bill like that. I will resign , ” he fumed.
Another member from Abia State , Mrs. Nkiruka Onyejeocha , said her colleagues were not happy that the bill was rejected.
“ At least , they could have passed it for second reading .
“ At the committee stage , more work could have been done on it to remove the grey areas, ” she said .
One member from Rivers State , Boma Goodhead , joined in the protest, saying the North was not fair to the South - East.

“ They are using our oil money to address the issue of Boko Haram . Now , they are against this bill . It is not fair, ” she shouted and walked away angrily.

Investment / Democracy Day: Mmm-nigeria Organises ‘green Party’ by rollybest(m): 10:16pm On May 29, 2017
MMM- Nigeria , a group for mutual financial aid and donations on Monday organised a green party show in the Federal Capital Territory to celebrate Nigeria ’ s Democracy Day .
The party, which held at the Millennium Park, was opened to members of the group and non- members alike .
Mr Seyi Bello, the President of Abuja Guiders Forum of the MMM- Nigeria said the gesture was part of solidarity by the group for Nigeria ’ s 18- years of uninterrupted democracy.
“ This party is put together to celebrate our Democracy Day and since Nigeria ’ s flag is green- white -green , we decided to call it ‘ green party’ as a mark of solidarity.
“ We invited everyone to be a part of this event because friendship and unity is what this community of mutual help represents.
“ As a community, we do not only provide help to our members , we also extend that to the larger society as part of our social responsibility, ” he said .
Musicians, comedians and other entertainers in the territory performed at the event .
Bello explained that over three million Nigerians were members of the group .
He explained that contrary to some people ’ s opinion about the scheme , it scheme was a community of people providing financial help to each other on the principle of reciprocity and benevolence.
“ That is what defines us as a community of people providing financial help to each other on the principle of reciprocity and benevolence.
“ In MMM , there are no lenders and no debtors . One participant asks for help , another one helps. ’’
He , therefore , called on leaders at all levels to deliver basic dividends of democracy to Nigerians, adding that the current recession was affecting ordinary Nigerians .
“ As we celebrate democracy , let our leaders remember that we need change in all aspects of our lives, ” he said .
Mavrodi Mondial Movement is a Ponzi scheme , which was revived early this year after freezing participants ’ accounts for a month in December 2016.

Far back in my SS1, my fake Chemistry teacher told us that any chemical compound with a state symbol of (aq) is in the form of pap (akamu). I lived with this wrong concept until when I started studying Chemistry personally. He did Maths/Statistics in school, yet he was taking us on Chemistry. sad
blood of Jeremiah. aqueous =akamu.
mine fake physics teacher stated Newton's law of gravitation thus "The force of attraction between two bodies M1 and M2 is inversely proportional to to the product of their masses and directly proportional to their distance apart " any time i try to correct him to use directly for product of their masses and inversely proportional for their distance apart, he will always tell me "there are many roads to the market "

So what are u saying man?....
what am saying is this. the universities should release their cut off point. it will now serve as a compass to those trying to change institution.
for exam, if i scored 200 in jamb and i applied for chemical engineering in OAU, and now want to change institution, how will i know the institution am changing to will cut below 200 when they have not released cut off point.
note :cut off point is not constant

Icosahedron:




Who told you that you are not good enough academically? How did you even come close to that concl

Here are things you should start doing from today henceforth.

1. Develop a positive mindset, believe in yourself, it's that simple. Don't allow your present condition becloud your mindset. Without a positive mindset you can never go anywhere in life, if you continue to live with the nauseous assumption that you are an average student, then it would be difficult(if not impossible) for you to stay motivated, and motivation plays a key role in success.


2. Study as if your life depends it, visit google Salman khan(khanacademy) and check his YouTube channel, watch his video lectures and educate yourself, he treats both introductory and advanced level topics on Mathematics and Physics. Give yourself the necessary foundation, after you have done that, you are perhaps ready to advance your mind, buy the following textbooks

- Further Mathematics by Egbe
- Integrated Mathematics by Afolabi
- Additional Mathematics for West Africa by G.A Ogun
- Principles of Physics by Nelkon
- Advanced level Physics by Nelkon
- Pure Mathematics by Bunday

Make sure you master the textbooks listed above.

3. Study all night, forget sleep and train your mind.


I rest my case.
Choi that further maths by Egbe is the most useless further maths textbook i have ever seen.it can't be used by beginners, i only use it because i teach further maths in a secondary school. it's purely for those that have known the concept before not starters
