ADC chairman we know. Who is this Nonsense attention seeker?.

You say he’s seeking attention, yet here you are providing it for free.

What an irony!

Modified
If I hadn't read your comment, I wouldn't have known that Sen. David Mark is the chairman of ADC.

You see how life goes?

What might be of importance to you, might not be in another person's list of concerns.

This one na Temu David Mark

I see.

I'd rather focus on the message, rather than the messenger's nomenclature.

He wished the nation well. Shouldn't that be the priority?

As Nigeria marks its 66th Independence Anniversary, the Kogi State Coordinator of the PBAT Door-to-Door Movement, Hon. David Mark, has congratulated Nigerians at home and abroad, calling for renewed patriotism, unity and collective commitment to the peace and development of the country.

In a goodwill message to commemorate the anniversary, Hon. Mark described October 1 as a significant moment for Nigerians to reflect on the nation’s journey since independence in 1960, honour the sacrifices of the country’s founding fathers and recommit themselves to building a stronger and more prosperous Nigeria.

He congratulated President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, on the occasion, while acknowledging the Federal Government’s efforts towards addressing the country’s economic and developmental challenges under the Renewed Hope Agenda. The Federal Government has designated October 1, 2026 as a public holiday to mark Nigeria’s 66th Independence Anniversary.

According to him, the task of nation-building requires patience, sacrifice and the participation of every Nigerian, regardless of political, ethnic, religious or geographical differences.

“Independence Day is not only a day for celebration; it is also a day for sober reflection. It reminds us of the sacrifices of those who fought for our freedom and the responsibility we have today to preserve and strengthen the Nigeria they handed over to us.

“As Nigerians, we must continue to believe in our country, support peaceful coexistence and contribute our individual quota to national development. Our diversity should remain a source of strength rather than division.”

Hon. Mark also extended his warm congratulations to Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo on the occasion of the anniversary, noting that the progress and stability of Kogi State remain important to the overall development of Nigeria.

He urged the people of Kogi State to continue to support initiatives aimed at improving infrastructure, strengthening security, creating opportunities for young people and improving the welfare of citizens.

The Kogi State Government identifies infrastructure, healthcare, education, agriculture, human capital development, security, tourism and investment as among the areas of focus of the Ododo administration.

The PBAT Door-to-Door Movement coordinator further called on Nigerians, particularly young people, to remain hopeful about the future and participate actively in the development of their communities.

He said the celebration should inspire citizens to place the interest of Nigeria above personal and sectional considerations, adding that sustainable development could only be achieved through unity, responsible citizenship and respect for democratic institutions.

“Nigeria belongs to all of us. The responsibility of building the country we desire cannot be left to government alone. Every citizen has a role to play, whether as a public servant, business owner, farmer, professional, student, community leader or young entrepreneur.

“Let us continue to promote peace, unity, hard work and patriotism. Let us give our country the commitment it deserves and remain confident that, with collective determination, Nigeria can attain its full potential.”

Hon. Mark prayed for continued wisdom and strength for President Tinubu, Governor Ododo and other leaders at all levels of government as they discharge their responsibilities to the people.

He also prayed for peace, prosperity and greater opportunities for Nigerians, urging citizens to celebrate the anniversary with a renewed sense of responsibility and hope for the future.

“On behalf of myself and the entire PBAT Door-to-Door Movement in Kogi State, I wish President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo and all Nigerians a happy 66th Independence Anniversary. May God continue to bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria and Kogi State.”

SYDNEY, May 26 (Reuters) - OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said on Tuesday the rapid development ‌and adoption of AI would not lead to a global "jobs apocalypse" and the technology had not claimed as many white-collar jobs as he had feared.

Speaking virtually at a Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA) conference in Sydney, Altman said he was initially concerned about the impact AI would have on global employment ​levels.
The Reuters Iran Briefing newsletter keeps you informed with the latest developments and analysis of the Iran war. Sign up here.

He said he and his executives had been "roughly right" on the technological predictions made by OpenAI when it launched ​ChatGPT in 2022. But he said they were "pretty wrong" on the social and economic implications.

"I'm delighted to ⁠be wrong about this, I thought there would have been more impact on entry-level white-collar jobs being eliminated by now than ​has actually happened," Altman told CBA Chief Executive Matt Comyn in an interview.
"I now think I understand more about why it hasn't, ​and I'm obviously grateful but that is an area where my intuitions were just off.

"People are like 'oh you could have saved the world a lot of fear mongering and a lot of doom and gloom' but at the time I was like 'I see this is a real risk we should probably ​talk about it' and it still may."
Altman did not cite any jobs numbers on Tuesday but has previously talked about potential ​industry-wide job cuts due to AI's advancement.

A growing number of global companies, including HSBC (HSBA.L), opens new tab, Amazon (AMZN.O), opens new tab, Standard Chartered (STAN.L), opens new tab and CBA (CBA.AX), opens new tab have announced some jobs within their ‌companies were ⁠being replaced by AI.

OpenAI is preparing to confidentially file for a U.S. initial public offering in the coming weeks, Reuters reported last week, citing a source familiar with the matter. The company could be aiming for a $1 trillion valuation and raising at least $60 billion, Reuters reported in October.

'HUMAN PART' OF EMPLOYMENT IRREPLACEABLE
Altman said he had realised that even though AI was taking on an increasingly active role ​in many industries and jobs, there ​was still a 'human part' ⁠of employment that could not be replaced.
He said he had been using AI to respond to Slack and email messages but had reverted to answering some himself.

"I had it reply to messages, saying 'this ​is Sam's AI' and it was an amazing example to me of we really do care ​about people," he ⁠said.
"We really do care about our interactions with people and this thing, which is a huge amount of my time, is not something that I can imagine myself outsourcing to an AI anytime soon."

That realisation, he said, had made him believe the human interaction required in ⁠many jobs ​would not be replaced by AI.

"It really, in both positive and negative ways, ​updated me to thinking that the jobs picture is likely to be very different than we thought," he said.
"I don't think we're going to have the kind ​of jobs apocalypse that some of the companies in our space advocate or talk about."

Money is not everything...

I won't let this poorly promoted AI article tell me otherwise.

Now that's the real shi hitting the fans!

Jojo1111:
Being 31 years old does not prevent you from gaining admission to study abroad, whether in Poland or Canada. Universities in both countries admit mature students regularly. What matters is not your age, but your academic and application profile.
Here’s how it breaks down:
1. Admission Reality (Age Factor)
There is no official age limit for most universities.
Many people apply in their late 20s, 30s, even 40s.
Schools actually value maturity, clarity of purpose, and work experience.
2. What You Must Have
To be competitive, you need:
Academic Qualifications
For undergraduate: WAEC/NECO (with good grades)
For postgraduate: Bachelor’s degree (minimum 2:2 or better depending on school)
English Proficiency
Exams like IELTS or TOEFL (especially for Canada; Poland sometimes waives it if prior education was in English)
Supporting Documents
Statement of Purpose (very important at your age)
CV (especially if you’ve worked before)
Recommendation letters
3. Special Considerations at Age 31
This is where you must be strategic:
a. Study Gap Explanation
If you’ve been out of school for years, you must clearly explain what you’ve been doing (job, business, training, etc.)
b. Program Choice
Choose something that aligns with your background or experience
(random career switches can raise red flags, especially for Canada visa).

This is the problem with using AI to answer questions.

Ah Nigeria!

Abundance of bright minds, at the same time...a heaven for highly intelligent stupeed people.

I pray the marriage don't end this way.

You saw the future bro.

The Ogbebors.

True hustlers!

She must be a northerner.

I like her accent though!

What's the big deal about being married?

Been married for almost a decade and I don't really see what the big deal is about it.

It amazes me when people assume getting married is some sort of achievement or some superior social status.

If being single makes you happy, be damn single.

If living together without any sort of commitment is what you guys want and agree to do, then do the damn thing!

Just do whatever makes you happy!

Are they truly believers or just following a trend, or trying to farm engagements?

22 On that day tmany will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’

23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’

Dear Seun,

There's need to reconsider the placement of your ads.

Putting them below every topic is an eyesore.

Please do something about this update, it's totally irritating.

Thank you.

Buhari failed as a president!

We all agree on that...

But his greatest failure was not regulating social media.

Dead party!

PDP has been reduced to an annex of APC.

More like a satellite campus.
