Africans will never consider this as Good news as long as it comes from an African like them.But if the west came up with an unverified idea,They will be so quick to shout ''Good news'' and ask dumb questions like ''when will it get to Africa''.Here is an African telling us the solution is here in Africa and we are finding it hard to believe..
One day we go gain independence from western influence.

Olamide is only loved by the Yorubas and probably the few igbos .Dagrin paved way for rappers like Olamide to be heard cos damn ..that dude was too hard on the mic ..can't stop watching his freestyle on jimmy's jumpoff.Olamide too is well respected and he's gradually getting there . his voice though is a turn off for his 'spits' on the mic!!!

SportsLiverpool Will Win League Title This Season- Popular Zimbabwean Prophet by skimarvel(op): 6:11pm On Dec 31, 2013
A youthful Zimbabwean prophet Eubert Angel has prophesied that Liverpool will win the English Premier League title this season.
Angel who is the founder of Spirit Embassy church and once lived in Manchester is widely known for various football prophesies.
In May 2012, Angel prophesied that Chelsea would beat Liverpool to win the FA Cup a few hours before kickoff.
Chelsea went on to win 2-1 after he had correctly spelt the scoreline and gave exact goal descriptions.
He was again on point when he foretold Manchester United’s league glory last season.
A self-confessed Manchester United fan, he however sees Liverpool bagging it this season.
“Liverpool, I am with you this year and God has shown me he is returning you to your glory days,” he said.
It would be Liverpool’s 19th league title and their first since the 1989/1990 season.
Early this month Angel also correctly prophesised the exact day, date and time former South African President Nelson Mandela would die.

[quote author=onyibajoe]With all due respect to Mr President, he shouldn't have allowed Wike to get involved in this whole thing as the only thing he knows how to do is to heat up the polity. The President should have completed what he started. ASUU members are not foreigners. We have all seen that till now, the ASUP who were asked to go back to classroom and they did had to go back on strike due to insincerity and irresponsibilty of the FG. Let us all be mindful that the FG is yet to tell us that of all what ASUU placed as conditions to call-off the strike, this ones we can and the other(s) we can not meet. That is negotiation and I expect it to be treated as one and stop deceiving Nigerians. An effort by ASUU to solidify their achievement is not a bad one. Wike is the "wrongest" person to appear on this screen. Objectively, forcing ASUU back to the classroom is not the best because it won't bring to an end the issue of strike in our tertiary institutions. Our govt is just insensitive to the plights of our students. Who told you it's in our interest that the lecturers be forced to go back to work just like that? Who for do am? Who doesn't know the kind of leaders we have in Nigeria? In my objective view, this matter has been made simple by ASUU. The govt should stop deceiving the people and do the NEEDFUL. I still maintain that the govt is guilty in this whole palava. All those happy about this directive by the govt(Wike) should be ready to embrace the worse strike in history after this. I hope they have bought enough ropes to bundle the lecturers back to classrooms. ASUU is far from the major problems we are facing in Nigeria. Let's be sincere to ourselves. Just wishing Nigeria had an administrator as president. [/quote)This is SUPER STORY...(Are you a LEARNER? Go to school and read some more)

Science/TechnologyScientists Find Gold Particles On Eucalyptus Plants In Australia by skimarvel(op): 9:40pm On Oct 24, 2013
It's true - money does not grow on trees. But gold does, at least according to a group of scientists who have confirmed the presence of the mineral in the leaves of some plants.

Australia based researchers found the gold particles hidden within eucalyptus tree foliage, indicating that gold deposits may also be buried many metres below.

The grains growing within the leaves are approximately one fifth the diameter of a human hair, making the discovery unlikely to start a gold rush. However, it can provide a unique opportunity for mineral exploration.

Geochemists from Australia's Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRPO) said eucalyptus trees in western Australia are drawing up gold particles from the earth via their root system and depositing it their leaves and branches.

Although the amounts found were tiny, their presence could indicate gold ore deposits buried up to tens of metres underground and under sediments that are up to 60 million years old.

Lead author of the study, Dr Mel Lintern, said the team used CSIRO's Maia detector, a machine that uses x-rays to probe matter in great detail, to search for gold deposits. They were able to produce images of gold found in the leaves, bark and twigs of some of the trees.

Their research, published in the journal Nature Communications, suggested plants were absorbing gold particles found around the soils of eucalyptus trees, Dr Lintern explained.

“The eucalypt acts as a hydraulic pump – its roots extend tens of metres into the ground and draw up water containing the gold.

"As the gold is likely to be toxic to the plant, it’s moved to the leaves and branches where it can be released or shed to the ground.

“The leaves could be used in combination with other tools as a more cost effective and environmentally friendly exploration technique.”

Dr Lintern added that by using this technique of sampling and analysing vegetation for traces of minerals, it may be easier to observe what occurs below the surface without the need to drill. He said: "It’s a more targeted way of searching for minerals that reduces costs and impact on the environment."

PoliticsASUU To Meet Over Strike, Says Not Under Pressure To Call Off Strike by skimarvel(op): 8:42pm On Oct 18, 2013
The National Strike Coordinating Committee, NSCC, comprising of principal officers and Zonal Coordinators of Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU will be meeting Saturday to take stock of the ongoing strike embarked by the union that is entering the fourth months.
Meantime, ASUU said that it was not under any pressure to call-off the strike despite what it called sponsored protests and rallies against the union, stressing that before the union decided to embark on the strike, it holistically took objective assessment of the situation.
One of the branch Chairmen of ASUU and member of NSCC who spoke exclusively to Saturday Vanguard on the condition of anonymity said that the meeting will take place in Ondo state and that there would be a situation report including the meeting representatives of ASUU had with the Federal government last week's Friday.
He said,"We are meeting tomorrow, National Strike Coordinating Committee. Tomorrow is arrival. Our Principal officers and Zonal Coordinators met with government last week Friday, one week today, so we want to discuss the outcome of the meeting, after that we will now meet."
Commenting on the plethora of protests by different groups over the strike which could be mounting pressure on the union to call off the strike, he said that"There is no pressure on us. We look at things objectively and remember that even me as I am talking we cannot suspend the strike.
"We have to get inputs from the branches that is why our strike is always very tight, because before we declared the strike, we have collected inputs from all branch officers in the universities in Nigeria, we collated it, discussed it extensively for two days before we declared the strike.
"And if there is any offer made by government, we have to look at it, that is the principal officers ten of them in number, the zonal coordinators who take over functions of NEC during the strike, so, they will look at what government has offered, brief us the branch chair persons then it is at this point we will now know whether to convene an emergency NEC to look at it holistically.
"By the time they are briefing us, they will also ask us to brief our committee members and take the issue to the congress, it is not a one man show, all these ones they are talking about politics it is not true, the process right from the least of all the lecturers to the highest that is the professor from each branch, we collate all their responses, it is only when they advice us to suspend that we suspend, it is not just one man show."
He explained that during strike situation, the National Strike Coordinating Committee comprising of principal officers and zonal coordinators always take over the functions of NEC, adding, "every single week, the zonal coordinators will take the information to the various branches who will now take the information to congress, collating information from congress, the branch chairman will take it back to the zonal coordinator, the zonal coordinator takes it back to NSCC, the reason is that NEC has the larger component, we are many."
He said that the reason behind allowing the smaller number of officers to meet during strike situation was to cut cost.
"Why NEC cannot meet during the strike is because of cost, we are more in number. In NEC we have over 100 people, but NSCC will be between 10 and 20, so it is manageable, we have a channel of communication."
All attempts made to call the National President of ASUU, Dr. Nasir Fagge failed as he neither picked calls put across his GSM line nor replied the text message sent to him.
