Mr Godwin Emefiele, the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), has said that at the end of 2017 third quarter Nigeria will be out of rescission. Emefiele speaking confidently in Abuja yesterday said “My view is that with all the positive signs we see: inflation tending downwards, GDP improving to the extent that negative growth rate has decelerated quite significantly, in fact we have seen foreign exchange going to the real sector and industrial capacities are beginning to improve,” Emefiele said. “We’ve seen positive signs in various economic sectors, I am very confident that at the end of the third quarter, we will be out of this and I still hold that position. “We would prefer a convergence that will significantly be going southwards, than a convergence that will go northwards.
The fact that we have seen a convergence in the southward direction gives us a lot of hope that things are working in the right direction. “Even I, want a low interest rate but the economic aggregates that we see today, unfortunately, does not give room for us to begin to look at that direction of signalling a downward interest rate. “You would have read World Bank and IMF reports and what they have both insisted is that we should tighten further. But rather than tightening, what the monetary policy committee has decided to do is to hold and watch, given that we had embarked on a consistent policy tightening before we decided to adopt the hold strategy. “I have said it and I will repeat myself that the interventions will be more vigorous and intense, to underscore the fact that we are determined to ensure that the Nigerian economy recovers, by making sure that foreign exchange is being made available to all sectors of the Nigerian economy to conduct their businesses.”

This article is spot on. I agree with the writer where he said: "But, this is the same society where I grew up fearing any parent in the neighbourhood the way we feared our parents. They would discipline you if you are caught in a wrong act and report to your parents later. Your parent would add his own portion rather than asking why he/she punished you". This was so true.
P
It reminds me of the good old days. Nowadays, even teachers need to be careful when it comes to disciplining students, especially in private schools. It is the parent that would even call for the suspension of any teacher, who dares to discipline their child. We all need a reorientation of our mindsets in this country. Too many people have become immune to wrongdoing, bloodletting and horror. May God save us all!

nice one

The scripture in the book of Numbers told the story of how when Israel was staying in Shittim, its men began to indulge in sexual immorality with Moabite women. The adulterous women invited them to the sacrifices of their gods and the people ate the sacrificial meal and bowed down before these gods. In the process, Israel became yoked to the Baal of Peor and the Lord’s anger burned against them. God then instructed Moses to take all the leaders of these people, kill them and expose them in broad daylight before the Lord, so that the Lord’s fierce anger may turn away from Israel. As the Prophet was relaying God’s instructions, an Israelite man brought into the camp a Midianite woman right before the eyes of Moses and the whole assembly of Israel while they were weeping at the entrance to the tent of meeting. The whole assembly watched in shock except Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, the priest who went for his spear and followed the Israelite into the tent. He drove the spear into both of them, right through the Israelite man and into the woman’s stomach. Woman’s stomach Then the plague against the Israelites was stopped. Before he acted, those who died in the plague numbered 24,000. Only God knows the number that would have perished that day if one man was not zealous enough to act.

I have always juxtaposed the above story with the experience shared by the Acting President of Nigeria, Prof .Yemi Osinbajo (SAN) at a National Transformation programme hosted by Rev. Sam Adeyemi’s Daystar Christian Centre at the National Stadium in Lagos some 11years ago. The Law Professor had related his experience in some refugee camp in Liberia while on a UN assignment during the war in that country. He said he saw a man in a ragged suit with sunken cheeks covered with unkempt beards. He was holding a bowl eagerly waiting to collect his ration. He said there was nothing unusual about such in a refugee camp until he was told the man was the former Chief Justice of the country. He said may be a bold pronouncement from his court could have altered the turn of events in the country! The moral of the two stories above is the price our country is paying for the culture of indifference pervading our society. Our moral columns have collapsed largely on account of the prevailing atmosphere of “every one for himself and God for us all.” I cringed the other day when I read the report of some schoolboys on the Island raping some female students in the open in broad daylight and people only gathered to watch as if a magician was on display. But, this is the same society where I grew up fearing any parent in the neighbourhood the way we feared our parents. They would discipline you if you are caught in a wrong act and report to your parents later. Your parent would add his own portion rather than asking why he/she punished you.

Today, everybody only minds his own business. I was in a rich neighbourhood of multi-millionaires and billionaires the other day and a man was telling me how his neighbours refused to cooperate in making a refund to him for the construction on the major road they all use. Not that they don’t have but they just can’t be bothered by what is not for their exclusive use.How can such people push the government to serve the public good? They would rather run to a governor to give them contracts that would benefit them personally rather than push for what would benefit the whole community! Apart from the bad architecture of governance flowing from our dysfunctional structure,the next gravest impediment to our growth and development is our indifference to collective good and the pursuit of only self. There was a time in our country that human life mattered to so much to us that a lone death in an accident would make the front page of a newspaper. It would take scores of deaths for any accident to make our front page these days. People watch horror images of torture and killings by Boko Haram and other murderous gangs sprawling around our country today as if they watch Nollywood movies.We are no longer moved by adversity. Dead bodies litter our roads and nobody cares.

This is why we must not be indifferent when we see powerful example of exemption to this malady demonstrated by any citizen as done by Ogun State Governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun recently at the burial of Senator Isiaka Adeleke in Ede, Osun State. As a direct fallout of insinuations that the late Senator did not die naturally a mob had descended on an indigene of the town, Ms .Idia Babalola, Special Adviser to Osun State Governor, Rauf Aregbesola, and were about to lynch her for showing up at the burial. All guests took to their heels. But like Phinehas, the natural warrior in Amosun surfaced and he rose to the occasion. He shelved the toga of a Nigerian governor and swung into action. He fought within the mob. He struggled fist-to-fist. Having shown the way, his aides followed him in the rescue mission. His ADC suffered a cut in the head with a flying pebble. Amosun risked his life and that of his aides in a desperate bid to avert bloodshed. God took care of the rest and ensured the lady was saved and and the governor and his aides left the scene in peace. It was a performance and an unusual courage in the midst of a bloodthirsty mob.But history has recorded Amosun for not reading too much of “Far From The Madding Crowd “.Greater courage has no public official shown in our clime in recent history . By stepping forward at the decisive moment, Amosun did not just save a lady’s life but also altered what could have been a cycle of bloodletting in Ede.

The community would have had to mourn Babalola after Adeleke.Babalola’s family would probably lay ambush someday for some of the attackers identified.The vicious cycle could have continued. The courageous and heroic intervention of Amosun fits him in the classic heroes in Prof. Wole Soyinka’s works.The renowned playwright had come under the critical lens of the school of communal heroism for his take in Kongi’s Harvest that the best yam will not come out of the collective farm but from Dawodu’s.Can we truly divorce the role of individuals in history? Eleanor Roosevelt must have whispered in Amosun’s ears afterwards: “You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ‘I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’ The lesson we can take from the incident is that society gains something when we step out of our comfort zone to do the needful.When we don’t, there is a pride society pays for our indifference. May Amosun’s tribe increase in our clime..

MANAGING Director and Chief Executive Officer, Propertygate Development and Investment PLC, Mr Adetokunbo Ajayi, has proposed measures to enable real estate developers in African continent raise funds internally rather than over-depending on foreign investors to execute their housing projects. Besides, Ajayi who addressed experts at the meeting of the African Chapter’s first Global Real Estate Institute GRI, Club in London recently with the theme “Trends Shifting in Real Estate Capital Flows in Sub- Sahara Africa, advocated the use of Real Estates Investment Trusts (REITS) as a potent window for enhanced financing of real estate investment. Ajayi explained that rather than depend solely on foreign investors for funds, real estate operators in the African continent should explore funding opportunities in an array of financial outlets such as pension funds, insurance companies and the capital market by leveraging REITs. “Instead of players in the continent devoting significant energies chasing after foreign investors who demand a great deal of persuasion, in the light of structural and other challenges on the continent and competition from other regions of the globe, operators should begin to seriously look inward for funding. “There is a big need for capital from local institutions in Africa in order to avoid the current reliance on foreign investment. Capital investment from local institutions like pension funds, insurance companies, and capital market, through channels such as REITS should be boosted. It is hoped that big changes will take place in the market in the next 10-15 years., Ajayi said According to a statement from Propertygate, the discussion at the London meeting centered on how Africa compares to other emerging markets of the world, while participants considered the impact of regulatory and policy changes, and obstacles preventing flows of foreign capital into Africa. They unanimously agreed that investment into African real estate from international investors has slowed down. Specifically, they noted that investment flow from South Africa had reduced, as attention had turned to Eastern Europe. Apart from the current economic challenge of the continent which have turned off investors, the meeting observed lack of liquidity in the African market and absence of secondary market. A member however pointed out that the continent had begun to witness some improvements as countries like Ghana and Zambia are beginning to pick up while liquidity in the exit market is believed to be deepening. Assessing the Africa’s market, the forum lamented dearth of occupiers in Africa to fill shopping malls which according to them is a disincentive to retail real estate development on the continent With the dearth of organized retail on the continent, some members argued that developers should rethink the current model of building sophisticated retail centre as they need to do more of strip malls, which may be better suited for a number of African countries, considering their current level of development.

av u seen it

It’s delicious, refreshing, contains many nutrients and has amazing health benefits. Jumia Travel, the leading online travel agency, shares 6 health benefits of coconut water.

1. Rehydrates the Body

Coconut water is a great thirst quencher and because of its electrolyte composition, it helps to rehydrate the body in the event of dehydration and fluid loss through diarrhea, vomiting or excessive sweating. It’s also a great source carbohydrate, helps lift energy levels and helps soothe tummy troubles like indigestion, acid reflux and gastroenteritis.

2. Helps to Control Blood Pressure

Coconut water is great for lowering high blood pressure because of its vitamin C, potassium and magnesium content. The potassium, in particular, helps to lower blood pressure by balancing out the negative effects of sodium in the body. A cup of fresh coconut water twice a day will give the best results.

3. Helps with Weight Loss

Coconut water is ideal for weight loss because it’s low in calories and easy on the stomach. It contains various bioactive enzymes that aid digestion and boost fat metabolism. The potassium contained in coconut water helps to balance out sodium levels in the body which reduces water retention and prevents the gaining of water weight. Coconut water, aside from reducing water retention, helps to flush out excess water and toxins from the body. A glass of fresh coconut water, 3 to 4 times a day, is great for facilitating weight loss.

4. Great for the Skin

It’s no wonder that a significant number of hair and beauty products like facial creams, shampoos, conditioners and lotions boast of coconut extracts. Coconut water is great for the skin. It helps to moisturize the skin from within when ingested orally and eliminates large amounts of oil. Applying fresh coconut water to acne and blemishes also goes a long way in helping to clear them up and subsequently tone the skin.

5. Helps Digestion

Coconut water is a source of relief for digestive troubles like indigestion and acid reflux. This is because of its high concentration of fiber and how light and easy it is on the stomach. It aids in preventing indigestion and reducing the occurrence of acid reflux.

6. Balances PH Levels

Acidic pH levels typically cause low energy and interfere with the body’s ability to absorb vitamins and minerals. Stress, toxic load and a diet high in acid-forming foods like processed fast foods are some of the causes of acidic pH levels. Coconut water has an alkalizing effect that helps to lower acidic levels and restore a healthy pH in the body.

T he National President of
Nigeria Union of Teachers,
Comrade Michael Olukoya,
has exressed the union’s gratitude
to Ogun State governor , Senator
Ibikunle Amosun, over the pardon
granted to three members of the
union in the state.
Amosun had granted pardon to
former Chairman of the NUT in the
state, Dare Ilekoya and two others;
Eniola Atiku and Nola Balogun who
were dismissed for gross
misconduct.
Olukoya, who stated this during a
press conference in Abeokuta over
the pardon , however, begged the
state government to consider
payment of deductions running into
seven or eight months.
The NUT boss however, pledged that
the union in the state under the
new leadership of Comrade Titi
Adebanjo, would not engage in any
activity capable of pitching it
against the state government,
adding that the body would rather
engage in what he termed
“scientific unionism” than involving
itself in politics.
While fielding questions from
newsmen on the ongoing
registration of teachers in the
country, Olukoya warned teachers
in Ogun state to either register and
update their status with the
Teachers Registration Council of
Nigeria, TRCN, or risk being sacked.
He urged them to disregard calls
being made by some individuals
parading themselves as union
leaders that the registration was not
mandatory, urging teachers to seize
the window of opportunity by TRCN
to get registered as professional
teachers.
According to him, TRCN is the only
statutory body recognised by the
law to register professional teachers
in Nigeria and teachers should not
be deceived by people who have
been urging them to ignore the
registration.
Olukoya debunked the claim that
the cost of registration was N7,000
per teacher, saying “teachers with
degrees would only pay N3,000
while their NCE counterparts would
pay the sum of N2,000”.
