There was a bloody fight between Igbo traders and the Hausa traders at Panteka market, a major spare-parts market in Kaduna state following the naming of two dogs, ‘Muhammad’ and ‘Ibere’ by both an Igbo trader and a Hausa trader respectively.
According to reports, the Igbo trader named his newly bought dog after the Hausa man who bears the same name ‘Muhammad’ in retaliation to the Hausa man who first bought his own dog and named it ‘Ibere,’ after the Igbo trader.
An eyewitness, Aminu Ibrahim was quoted saying “trouble started when one Muhammad bought a dog and allegedly named it Ibere after an Igbo trader.”
“Since the boy named the dog after the trader, the trader had warned him on several occasions to rename the dog, but the owner of the dog Muhammad refused. The Igbo trader, Ibere also bought a dog and named it Muhammad, this is when all hell was let loose,” Aminu said.
The reports also said that the market has been closed down by men of the Nigerian Police who stormed the area to restore law and order after the fight broke out.

I think it is high time our media outlets move from 'war journalism' to 'peace journalism'. War journalism is basically aimed at reporting conflict in a more furious manner.
It is journalism about
conflict that has a value bias towards
violence and violent groups. In War journalism, only the differences between the parties involved are reported.
Peace Journalism, however, is reporting conflict in a manner that emphasizes the consequences of the 'conflict' where all the actors and stakeholders consider and value non-
violent responses to conflict.
When it comes to National security, the truth is media organizations may compromise some of the ethics of Journalism like Objectivity and balance. National security is more important than even public interest here. PremiumTimes is a professional media outlet, therefore they should operate in line with the existing system.
If they say they are reporting the fact, 'facts' itself is a category of
practically infinite size. News are always shaped to present a reality. Professionalism is key.

You should just tell Buhari to sack all his ministers...Nonsense....

This is the situation you find yourself when you refuse to consult existing literatures before submitting project topic to your supervisor. If you had tried browsing to check for journals before submitting that topic, I know you would not have find yourself in this situation. However, I believe no matter how complex you think your topic maybe, there are literatures available for you online.
When using any of the key word to search, it is advisable to always put 'Journal Pdf' at the end of your search. This is because most journals are in PDF.
Please, don't start writing anything if you have not read at least 20journals related to your study unless you may end up plagiarising.
After reading the journals, you will know the key concepts to review, the theory to ground your work on and your empirical review will come easy. In fact, starting your project with literature review before going back to chapter one is also good. Goodluck.

This is the thread I have been looking forward to. I share same aspiration with the OP and I pray my dream comes true. It has never been easy though.

Aliyu, how far? Was that girl with 4.80 from your department given any award. I have a very big reservation on how ABU treated the guy with the 4.90CGPA.He is the overall best graduating student but only a laptop was given to him. Or are there other benefits from the management awaiting him apart from that? 4.90 no be beans o..

It is not just about the sample size. If the sampling technique is bad, it will affects the generalizability of the result...

Aegon:
Mr OP I totally agree with you. The elites always rape the masses in all democratic systems, it's pure capitalism without remorse.

Subtly, the naive masses will succumb to their irresistible hegemonic idea! It will take years for things to get better in Nigeria if we still have dummies all around.

WINNERMENTALITY:
Its Black thing not always Nigeria thing.

Nigeria is one big symbol of the black nations.

Nigeria, her unrepentant zombies and the gullible ones"

Chemicaldisease Indeed....

By Omolaoye Sodiq

The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and
opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country…- Edward Bernays.

Before anything else, permit me to share why manipulation of the masses may not come to end in most part of the world, at least for centuries to come. The global economy has been structured by the world power to benefit just a
few people in the society. This system is known as capitalism, Nigeria falls in here. In this system, we have just few rich people who make use of the labour of the poor ones to enrich themselves. There is no regulation of how much you can own. Every individual is given freedom to possess as much
as he/she can. Before now, there are a lot of scholarly predictions that
this system will be abolished and another system known as communism would be embraced. Communism preaches for a classless society where all
individuals are equal and resources are shared according to needs and want. This communist system sounds great in theory but it is highly unrealistic. Lending credence to this is the revolution of 1989 that led to the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991. The fall of Soviet Union was as a result of the ideological rivalry that exists between powers in the Western Bloc and powers in the Eastern Bloc.

This analogy is important as it brings to our memory why the present global economy system has come to stay. However, this global economy system has led to the development of many countries that they are now tagged developed
countries. In these Nations are the elites and the masses whose lives have been improved by the state resources. But, in the case of my dear country, it is a different narrative. This, therefore, means the problem is not in the system, but in the people. The gullible and unwise masses are being led by the rich who have been corrupted by power. Absolutely, what the elites now have are bad and vicious intentions for the people. If you do not belong or have someone who belongs to the hegemonic clout, you will suffer.
The pain felt by the masses is not enough reason for the powerful ones to reconsider their devilish actions and make adjustments. They steal yourmoney without remorse, use the military apparatus to silent you when you speak. Our fathers and mothers are made to pay dearly for their own
mistakes. They are your real enemies, not your next neighbour who is also struggling to make ends meet. Not the woman in your village who peeped through the window and saw you while traveling to the city. You dear not question them because they act like demi-gods. The future of our unborn kids looks darker due to the set of leaders we have today. Why blame them though when we are the cause of our own misfortune? We deserve our present
crops of leaders. A saying goes that the way you present yourself
determines how people treat you. We are treated like slaves in our country.

For instance, in the Northern Nigeria, there exists the Almajiri system
where innocent dirty clad children, both the ones who have parents and
orphans are littered all over the street, begging for money, cloth and
rampant of foods from passer-byes. An article written by Professor Idris
Abdulqadir has it that Almajiri system has practiced in Northern Nigeria is dated back to the pre-colonial era. The coming of the colonial masters bastardized the system as begging and doing menial jobs by children were never involved. However, it has been 56years since the British left us and in the short history of our dear country, the Northern region produced most
of our Head of state and Presidents. Majority of members of the house of
assembly, Directors of Agencies and ministries, and even Heads of our
military and Para-military are from the North, yet the Almajiri system
which the Colonial masters were accused of debasing keeps flourishing. What does this mean? The hegemonic class or Northern elites are pleased with the system because it favours them. As long as the class domination will be
maintained, the Almajiri system must not stop. If it does, who will act as slaves to the masters and be used as machinery to attack perceived political enemies?

In the down South, especially the western part, what you witness is an
unending loyalty to the elites by jobless and gullible youths. You also
experience the stomach infrastructure system in display. During elections, the best way to get them vote for you is to promise them half–loaf of bread, or you go to Thailand to export rice because they do not eat local one. Or less I forget, a ban has been placed on rice importation, you have to look for alternative on how to bring them foreign rice unless the final result of the pool may not favour you. What my Yoruba brothers are good at
is chest beating and claim that they are more educated than other regions but I believed they are suffering from the illusion of knowledge. They claimed in each household you go, at least a professor is waiting for you.
What is the essence of having numerous professors and you still act and think like Motor Park tout?

Also, my South-South and Southeast people took their naivety to another level. They are very good in defending corrupt politicians. In recent times, they have upgraded. Protests upon protest are staged in the East to support those who have milked them dry. They refused to read the handwriting on the wall that the elites do not care about them nor their unborn generations but their own bank accounts. In pages of newspapers and television screen, you see them with placards chanting all around the street of Abuja and Niger-delta defending a political office holder who does not give a dime about you or making your community a better place to
live. Remember that posterity will judge us.

Also, by using the belief the masses have in God, those in the realms of
power are cynically manipulating them. The Imams and Pastors now wine and dine with the political class, in so doing, their bank accounts are pumped up with dollars. As days roll by, they become fatter and even now, these clerics are among the richest in the world while they keep telling you to respect and pray for your leaders irrespective of your present situation. Tell me, does a heinous leader deserves the people’s blessing? Do leaders, who are self-centred, greedy, ruthless and inconsiderate, a point to remember in one’s connection with the almighty? Religion is indeed the opium of the people. It subdues us and leaves us weak to the whims of the powerful in the society. It is a pity that we have gotten to this state. The solution is within us. If the elites choose to be unrepentant, the masses should not choose to be fool enough to swallow anything. There is a need for proper re-orientation. There may be no point in reinventing the wheel or using sledgehammer to crack a nut, but it is right to set the record straight.

Most developed countries today had experienced what we are passing through, but because of the masses doggedness, tenacity and dogmatism against the vicious oppression by the elites, they were able to pull their country together for prosperity. Nigerians should stop celebrating corrupt politicians, we should learn to choose our leaders in the right way, and all form of social injustice and political oppression should be firmly rejected unless we may just discover that the light at the end of the tunnel is the headlight of an upcoming train.
