BusinessChina Woman Has Decided To Leave $2.8M To Her Dogs And Cats, None For Children by Thissystem(op): 1:50pm On Feb 15, 2024
A wealthy woman in China has decided to leave her $2.8m fortune to her pets, and her three children will get nothing.

The woman from Shanghai, with the surname Liu, decided to cut her children out of her will because she felt they neglected her in her old age and did not visit when she was ill, the South China Morning Post reported.

Meanwhile, her beloved pet cats and dogs remained by her side, she said.


Her dramatic decision was greeted positively by some Chinese people online. “Well done. If my daughter treats me poorly in the future, I will also leave my house to others,” one said.

It is unclear how old the woman is, but the report describes her as “elderly.”

Her will now dictates that the money must be spent on her pets and their offspring after she dies, per the report.

Faiththatworks:
There are some news I read these days that always leave me very very very puzzled.
I'm sorry for the detour from the topic,but I read a news yesterday and my mind couldn't understand it,some Northern House of Representatives members opposed a bill seeking to amend the constitution to allow only Only B.sc and HND holders contest for election to the post of the President and Governors.
Shame on all any Nigerian that still believes a school certificate holder,or a diploma is enough qualification to rule Nigeria.
I repeat again shame,shame,shame,shame on these people.
A diploma will only get you a bank teller job in a bank,an entry of level 6 into the civil service,but these people feel that kind of certificate is enough to rule Nigeria.
Anyone that's intellectually lazy to accquire a HND or B.Sc should never ever be allowed to be a governor,President or even a legislator.
Do these people understand how intelligent a president must be, someone who has to read and form opinions from reports he/she will receive from the NSA,from the CBN,From the NNPCL,from more than 30 Ministers,I mean the President must have an opinion on everything going on in the country and in 2024,a Northern Representative feels a Waec certificate or diploma is enough,shame on these people.
We must tell these Northern Representative that don't have any shame to have this kind of opinion.
Infact Nigerian youths should form a hashtag and shame these Northerns who have this infantile opinion.
Back to the Topic,I believe this is the best time for President Tinubu to have the balls to scatter and restructure Nigeria,he must quickly use these hard times to quickly restructure Nigeria.
Nigeria needs bold and quick reforms,I totally support this idea of a parliamentary system of government,I also read of the Minister of Power talking about State and Local Government having the license to generate and distribute power,that's another wonderful suggestions.
Infact the best time to introduce STATE and LOCAL POLICE is now, Asiwaju should use the excuse of No money In Nigeria to quickly restructure the country.
Nigerians are too hungry to protest especially those in the North.
God bless Nigeria
Lol, you have a point here.
"A diploma will only get you a bank teller job in a bank,an entry of level 6 into the civil service,,," but a Secondary school certificate is enough to rule the country and oversee everyone - Primary School certs to PhDs,....Profs, Harvard educated, MDs, and all.

E go better!

Politics60 Reps Seek Change From Presidential To Parliamentary System by Thissystem(op): 7:52pm On Feb 14, 2024
No fewer than 60 members of the Federal House of Representatives are seeking amendments to the 1999 Constitution to transition from the presidential to parliamentary system of government.

The lawmakers were led by the member representing Lagos State under the All Progressives Congress (APC), Wale Raji.

The lawmakers identified the need for reducing the cost of government, and robust policy debates among others as some of the reasons for demanding a return to the parliamentary system.

In a parliamentary system, the head of state and head of government are usually two separate positions, with the head of state serving as a ceremonial figurehead with little if any power, while all of the real political power is vested in the head of government. This is in contrast to a presidential system, which features a president who is usually both the head of state and the head of government and, most importantly, does not derive their legitimacy from the legislature.

Critics have however highlighted the following as disadvantages of the parliamentary system of government.

Incomplete separation of power.
Legislative flip-flopping.
Political fragmentation.
Democratic unaccountability.


The presidential form has executive and legislative branches that are separate but equal, whereas the parliamentary form has an executive branch that is a part of the legislative branch.

What makes a parliamentary government different from the United States?

A parliamentary government is different from the U.S. government because a parliamentary legislature picks its executive (the prime minister) and can remove the executive more easily using votes of no confidence. By contrast, the United States elects its executive (the president) directly every four years.

Daniel Bwala, a former spokesperson for the Atiku Abubakar presidential campaign, has come hard on Labour Party Presidential Candidate in the last election Mr Peter Obi and his supporters called Obidients.

As for the Obidients, he regarded them as thugs who are notorious for insulting and laying curses on people.

Recall in recent times Daniel Bwala has been drumming support for president Bola Ahmed Tinubu despite campaigning against him in the last elections.

TravelNiger Republic Reconfirms Ban On Flights From Nigeria To Their Country by Thissystem(op): 5:25pm On Feb 11, 2024
The military government in Niger Republic has reiterated its ban on flights from Nigeria, insisting that flights emanating from Nigeria would not be allowed to land in Niger.

It, however, stated that the restriction does not affect commercial flights that fly over Nigerien airspace without landing there.

This was contained in a Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) issued by the country’s airspace management authority on February 6, 2024.

Nigeria had earlier issued a statement reinstating its earlier ban on flights to and from Niger in a NOTAM, stating that the action was taken as part of the ECOWAS resolution.

In the NOTAM issued by Niger Republic, the airspace authority stated that the country’s airspace “is opened to all national and international commercial flights from ground to unlimited except for Nigerian flights to or from Nigeria.”

BusinessDetails Of EC130 Helicopter That Crashed, Killing Access Bank CEO Herbet Wigwe by Thissystem(op):
Eurocopter EC 130, the ill-fated helicopter that Herbert Wigwe, the CEO of Access Bank, and five others boarded on Friday February 9, 2024, in the United States took off from Palm Springs Airport, California.

The flight took off at about 8:45 p.m. (local time).
According to a local news outlet, it was expected to land at 9: 49 p.m (local time) at Boulder City, Nevada.

Details on FlightAware, a flight tracking platform, showed that the registration number of the helicopter is N130CZ and it was last seen near Fort Irwin/Barstow, California.

The helicopter is owned by Orbic Helicopter Tours, a longstanding provider of aerial experiences in Los Angeles.
The average hourly rental rate of the Eurocopter EC-130-T2 is around 3,350 USD per hour.

How much does an H130 helicopter cost?

The Airbus H130 (formerly known as the EC130 T2) is a single-engine helicopter with a seating capacity of up to seven passengers. This model is renowned for its spacious cabin, low noise levels, and versatility. The price for a new Airbus H130 starts at $3.7 million.

Notable accidents and incidents

On 2 January 2023, two EC130B4s operated by Sea World Helicopters collided in Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia, killing four people and injuring eight.

In February 2018, a EC130B4 operated by Papillon Airways crashed in the Grand Canyon, killing five people. Due to strong winds, the helicopter spun out of control and crashed as it came in to land. Three people died immediately, two more died in hospital as a result of burns sustained during the crash. The deaths were found to be the result of a non-crash-resistant fuel tank that was ruptured on impact. In January 2024, a Nevada judge awarded a £79 million ($100 million) settlement to the family of the British couple killed in the Grand Canyon crash. The settlement consisted of $75.4 million (£59.3 million) from Airbus Helicopters SAS and £19.4 million ($24.6 million) from Papillon Airways. Following the accident it is now required all helicopter fuel tanks are shielded from fuel tank rupture on impact.

On February 9, 2024, an EC130 crashed in the Mojave Desert near Nipton, California around 10:00pm PST. Six people were on board and no survivors have been found.
