Hello Christians, I discovered something here on nairaland. And I wish we can enforce a change too. Have you noticed you cannot comment on a Muslim thread if you do not agree with or have something positive to post? As soon as you you hit the reply button, what you see is "Do you believe in Allah? " And a rider which says, if you believe, it would be posted with comments. If you decline, that page vanishes. Here we are reading a Christian post and lots of Muslims are antagonizing the thread. Why don't we have the same comment protection for Christian threads? @Seun, please look into this matter. If there's no favorable response or action, I promise to start an online campaign telling the world how your site discriminates against online Christians and free speech. Block me if you wish.

NYSC / NYSC Bars Pregnant Women, Nursing Mothers, PG Students From Service by thoniann(m): 10:17pm On Jul 23, 2015
The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has barred pregnant women, nursing mothers and students engaged in postgraduate studies from enlisting in the national service across the country, until they are free to participate effectively.
Rising from a two-day pre-mobilisation workshop for the 2015 Batch “B” NYSC programme, held in Kaduna, Director-General of the NYSC, Brig-Gen. Johnson Olawumi, stated that the exemption of pregnant women and nursing mothers, as well as post-graduate students from national service was because they would not be able to undergo the four cardinal programmes of the NYSC.
The four cardinal programmes include mobilisation, orientation, primary assignment and winding-up passing out parade.

Corps members
In a communique, the NYSC also resolved that henceforth, pregnant women and children would no longer be allowed into orientation camps across the country for service under the scheme established by the Gen. Yakubu Gowon administration in 1973.
Arguing that prospective corps members must go through the four stages of national service to qualify to receive certificate of national service, Olawumi faulted a situation whereby prospective corps members, especially pregnant women and nursing mothers, would be absent from the stages of the national service, only to resurface for posting to their various places of primary assignments.
Meanwhile, the resolution workshop tagged: “ICT and NYSC Mobilization Process: Towards Eliminating Identified Challenges,” added that henceforth, documents for concessional posting request on marital or health grounds would be forwarded on-line as against the old practice of “bringing such to the NYSC headquarters in Abuja.”
It noted that prospective corps members would henceforth be given the opportunity to choose their choice outside their socio-cultural and linguistic areas, using ICT solution.
This, according to the NYSC, is in a bid to tackle the problems of deluge of concessional request with which the scheme is inundated with regularly.

Politics / Nigeria Police Seal Council Secretariats In Rivers State by thoniann(m): 6:35pm On Jul 10, 2015
dailypost.ng/2015/07/10/police-seals-council-secretariats-in-rivers-state-bars-wikes-chairmen/
Officers of the Nigerian eria Police Force have taken over the premises of 22
Local government councils in Rivers state.
DAILY POST gathered that the police may be acting on a perceived
information that some groups who were not favoured by the Federal
High Court ruling may invade the council secretariats in protest.
A Federal High Court in Port Harcourt, had ordered the cancellation of
the local government elections conducted in Rivers State few days to
the expiration of the tenure of former Governor, Rotimi Ameachi’s.
Justice Lambo Akanbi, in his ruling, berated the former administration
of Rotimi Amaechi for conducting the local council elections despite
his order that all parties should maintain status quo and leave the rest.
Justice Akanbi also accused the immediate past government of
“flagrant disobedience of court processes.
In a swift reaction to annulment, the Rivers state House of Assembly,
based on a request from Governor, Nyesom Wike immediately screened
and confirmed Caretaker Committee members to manage the affairs of
the 22 Local councils, all of whom are members of the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP in the state.
Reports reaching DAILY POST however has it that the police have been
drafted to all the council secretariats, stopping the newly sworn-in
CTC members and the removed Chairmen from gaining entry into the
councils.
Meanwhile, the National leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) has requested that the council be reopened.
The party described as “unconstitutional, reprehensible abuse of power
and brazen show of partisanship, the action of the APC-
led federal government controlled police in barring caretaker
committees lawfully appointed by the state government from taking
charge of the councils.”
PDP National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh in a statement on
Friday said the action of the police “is an affront to the
ruling of the High Court, which Thursday dissolved the 22 local
government councils unlawfully imposed by the immediate past
administration in the state, upon which the
caretaker committees were appointed by Governor Nyesom Wike.”
The party said “it was curious that the police allowed the dissolution
of local government councils and appointment of caretaker committees
in APC controlled
Plateau and Kaduna states, even when they were without the orders of
the court but elected to clamp down on that of Rivers State, which
came as a result of judicial pronouncement.”
The former ruling party, now opposition party charged the Inspector
General of Police to come out clean on the matter and assure Nigerians
of the non-partisanship of the Police Force by ordering the immediate
unsealing of the councils.
“You mean I’m now a prisoner?” – Lamido exclaims after court
sends him to prison
The party said Nigerians and the international community should note
the development, which “is a yet another clear indication that the
Nigerian police may have
become a partisan and compromised instrument in the hands of the
APC federal government to destabilize PDP controlled states,” Metuh
said.
