The main reason lies in “buying the cheapest option available” kind of approach.The fuel crises of the 1970s changed that. Manufacturers scrambled to save weight to save fuel, and they adopted assorted variations of the front-engine/front-drive layout. With all of the drivetrain components under the hood, cars became smaller and lighter and still had adequate interior room. Plus, with the engine over the drivewheels, traction improved too. Today, the majority of family cars are front-drive. Rear Wheel Drive- There are two main advantages to owning a RWD car. The first is that RWD is both simple and rugged — especially if it’s a solid axle design — and can take a lot of abuse without needing expensive repairs. The other advantage RWD cars offer is better balance — and because of this, better handling. While a FWD car has most of the weight of the engine and transaxle (the transmission and axle assembly are one unit in a FWD car) over the front wheels, a RWD car spreads the weight of its drivetrain more evenly front-to-rear. This is why most sports cars — and virtually all race cars — are RWD.Image result for FRONT WHEEL CARS Front Wheel Drive- The first is economy. It is cheaper to design and build a FWD car. There are fewer parts — and the drivetrain is easier and cheaper to install as the car rolls down the assembly line.https://etimes.com.ng/reasons-why-front-wheel-drive-cars-are-popular-today/ FWD also helps cut down the car’s weight by eliminating the separate transmission and axle assemblies used in a RWD car. This, in turn helps the car get better gas mileage. This is why FWD is most commonly found in economy-type and lower-cost cars. The other FDW plus is better traction than a RWD car can deliver — especially in rain and snow. The front wheels pull the car instead of the rear wheels pushing it. And, the weight of the engine/transaxle sits on top of the (front) drive wheels, which further helps the car get a grip. FWD cars are typically very capable in poor weather — even excellent, when fitted with snow tires. https://etimes.com.ng/reasons-why-front-wheel-drive-cars-are-popular-today/ |

Ibadan one of the foremost cities in Western Part of Nigeria is becoming a hot-bed of real estate activities recently. Perhaps this is due to the Federal Government’s focus to revive and modernize the Lagos-Ibadan rail network and the soon-to-be completed revamping of the Lagos-Ibadan road network. Also, new developments are springing up in Ibadan including modern shopping malls like Shoprite stores, Jericho mall and so on. It is therefore not surprising that many developers with foresight, which hitherto had focused on real estate developments in Lagos especially along the Lekki peninsula, are breaking new grounds in Ibadan. One of these developers is Diamante Casa, a sister company to Structuracasa, a renowned real estate developer with focus on the US and Nigerian real estate markets. Diamante Casa is setting the pace in a dedicated effort to upgrade the quality of housing in Ibadan. Previously developed by the firm are Legacy Estates and Emerald Courts, both in Ibadan. The company has now added another quality housing to its lists of luxury apartments: CRIMSON COURT.https://etimes.com.ng/diamante-casa-announces-completion-of-crimson-court-residences-jericho-gra-ibadan/ Crimson Court is a fully-serviced luxury enclave located in one of the best and nicest neighborhoods in Ibadan: StructuracasaJericho GRA (Jericho GRA is a tree-lined and historic community that many Ibadan professionals reside in). Arranged in terrace house style, each unity at Crimson Court comes with four-bedrooms all en-suite, modern kitchen fitted with Bosch appliances, two living rooms and outdoor terraces that gazes into the Ibadan horizon. Each unit also comes with a flex maid’s room. As the road and rail networks linking Lagos and Ibadan (and surrounding communities) nears its completion, we will see more real estate developments and investments spring up in Ibadan. More professionals and retirees that love Ibadan cool and peaceful environs will move to Nigeria’s premier city. Property values will drastically increase as demands grow. This is the perfect time to invest in Ibadan real estate. Diamante Casa seems to be taking the lead in this initiative.https://etimes.com.ng/diamante-casa-announces-completion-of-crimson-court-residences-jericho-gra-ibadan/

The call for diversification from crude oil to agriculture is yielding fruit lately, with the Ivory Towers keying into the need for food sustainability and reliability. This has prompted the Babcock University, Ilishan Remo ,Ogun State ,Nigeria to partner and collaborate with ChiTola Farms & The Mushroom Development Foundation Nigeria (MDFN) on ways to develop high yielding and quality mushrooms in Nigeria for domestic use and export, in line with the global best practices. The partnership with Babcock University and ChiTola Farms & The Mushroom Development Foundation Nigeria (MDFN) will bring to bear the modern agricultural practices on Mushroom Farming and the introduction of the Babcock Farmers Business School, ChiTola Farms & Mushroom Development Foundation Nigeria is currently setting up a 5000 bags capacity mushroom farm for Babcock University under the Foundation’s “Mushroom For Schools” Initiative. This will unarguably create the much needed jobs in the community and also give the students a first hand knowledge in modern mushroom farming. One of the organizers and founders of the initiative, Mrs. Chi Tola, has this to say on the choice of mushroom “Mushroom is a food that is low in Sodium, and very low in Saturated Fat and Cholesterol. It is also a good source of Protein. The mushroom consumption is mainly concentrated in six countries known as G-6 (USA, Germany, UK, France, Italy and Canada) consuming 85 per cent of world consumption. The varieties of mushroom cultivated internationally. This project would give the state the much needed revenue and generate employment”, she added. One of the drawbacks of this aspect of agriculture is the lack of trained manpower is among the bottlenecks for the growth of the mushroom. With this partnership with Babcock University and Chi Tola Farms , there will be a shift in paradigm. Skills transfer is one of the major areas of partnership. According to online research by Yes Bank, Mushroom belonging to fungi species, is a nutritious vegetarian delicacy and a good source of high quality protein (20-35 percent dry weight). Presently 3 varieties of mushroom are cultivated namely, white mushroom (Agaricus bisporus), the paddy-straw mushroom (Volvariella vovvacea) and oyster mushroom (Pleurotus sajor-caju). Agaricus species are mostly cultivated mushroom globally, contributing 35-40 per cent of the world production. Mushroom is consumed as a delicacy and possesses several medicinal properties. Mushroom is an efficient means for conversion of agricultural wastes into valuable protein and presents huge potential for generating additional income and employment. Globally, the mushroom market is in excess of an estimated $2.7 billion annually. https://etimes.com.ng/babcock-university-partners-chitola-farms-mushroom-farming/

GOOGLE,the online search giant, announced that it has launched Street View on Google map and also announced the introduction of e medicine. A mobile app that will bring medical services nearer to the people. This is in collaboration with the University of Ibadan. Lagos state is the first City that is featured in Africa. Google said that over thousands of streets, lanes and roads has been outlined for this application, with over a million buildings and landmark incorporated in the application. With over 100 thousand additional Nigerian businesses added to the map. Google can be said to be putting Nigerian startups in the global map. The search giant has earmarked over three million dollars for capacity building in Africa. With plans to train up to 10 million people in Sub Saharan Africa. There is also a provider of mobile developer training to 100,000 Africans to develop world-class apps, with emphasis in key countries like Nigeria, Kenya and South Africa. Google Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Sundar Pichai, made this known in the Google for Nigeria event in Lagos, yesterday. He further stated that Google.org, the search engine charity arm is committing $20 million over the next five years to nonprofits that are working to improve lives across Africa. In addition to that, he disclosed the Google's global Launch-pad Accelerator programme. This initiative will provide more than $3million in equity-free funding, mentorship, working space and access to expert advisers to more than 60 African start-ups over three years. Intensive three-month programs, held twice per year, will run out of a new Google Launchpad Space in Lagos--the programme's first location outside of the United States. The search giant recognized Mark and Emmanuella for hitting one million subscriber base in their YouTube channel. Google Street View is a technology featured in Google Maps and Google Earth that provides panoramic views from positions along many streets in the world. It was launched in 2007 in several cities in the United States.

Almost all of us think about starting a business at some point. The thought enters our minds when we come up with an ingenious way to stop an ice cream cone from dripping. Or we get a job and realize we want more control over our work. Or we hear about the multi-billionaires of the world and start fantasizing about making our own riches. Whatever your own motivation, if you’re going to start a business, there’s an ideal time to do it — while you’re still in your 20s and 30s. Why is that? 1. Long-term potential returns Imagine for a moment that you’ve built a successful business. It’s profitable and stable and generates a nice six-figure salary for you. Assume that this setup can continue indefinitely and that you enjoy the work. Wouldn’t you want to reap the accompanying rewards for as long as possible? If so, start your business as early as possible. Yes, it’s an optimistic scenario, but an achievable one, even if it takes you two or three tries to build a successful enterprise. The bottom line is, the more time you can spend as an entrepreneur, the better long-term returns you’re going to see. 2. Risk tolerance Let’s face it: Not all startups are going to make it. You need to be realistic, regardless of your age. Starting a business demands a lot of up-front investment, in both time and money, and you’ll bear significant risk, in both your finances and your current or “backup” career. Just as happens in the financial markets, the younger you are, the better you’re going to be able to tolerate that risk. You’ll have fewer responsibilities, fewer commitments and much more time to make up any losses you incur. Therefore, starting a business as early as possible mitigates your potential losses. 3. Energy and motivation It takes a lot of work to run a startup, too. Don’t forget that. Though not written in stone, the general rule is that younger professionals have more energy, motivation and enthusiasm than their elders. Maybe you’ll be a youthful spirit for the next several decades, but the thing is, you can’t know for sure. What seems like a solid “maybe” idea now may become a “no way” idea in 10 years; and the work you throw yourself into now may be work you’ll avoid at all costs next decade. Every year, your energy and motivation will decline. Take advantage of these personal assets while you have them. 4. Adaptability Younger people tend to be more adaptable. Part of the reason is that they’ve had a shorter amount of time to be exposed to the norms and rules of the professional world, and are less committed to those entrenched ideals. An even larger part of the reason is our unique technological age; we face major technological disruptions on a regular basis, and the only way for companies to survive is to adapt and integrate these new technologies. In your 20s and 30s, you’ll stand a better chance of recognizing and incorporating these new technologies quickly; and as you get older, the rate of development for these technologies will grow even faster. So, start a business while you’re more nimble, and you’ll be able to brave ever-more volatile waters. 5. Serial entrepreneurship Most entrepreneurs who truly love entrepreneurship end up starting multiple businesses, becoming serial entrepreneurs in their own right. It’s as if they were born to be entrepreneurs. And, for the most part, every new business these young people start is better than the last, thanks to their founders’ previous experience, growing list of contacts and broader perspective. Starting your first business when you’re in your 20s or 30s sets you up for a longer period of time to start even more businesses; essentially, you’re maximizing the potential experience you can gain, and greatly increasing the number of businesses you can start. Don’t throw away that potential by waiting around. If you need help getting started, grab this eBook. None of these reasons is meant to imply that you can start a business only when you’re in your 20s and 30s, or that if you’re in your 40s or over, you’ve missed the boat. On the contrary, older entrepreneurs often carry more experience and decision-making abilities and are extremely capable of building effective businesses. However, the unique blend of advantages that younger adults have makes this phase of life a highly strategic time to start up a business. If you’re in your 20s or 30s, and the thought of entrepreneurship has entered your mind more than once, don’t write it off as a pipe dream. Dig into some research, explore your ideas and make the most of your youth by pouring your energy into a business. No matter how things turn out, you’ll be glad you did. https://etimes.com.ng/5-reasons-start-business-20s-30s/ |
I personally see IPOB as a Civil Rights group fighting for better living rights of the Nigerian peoples. Every nation and government need such vocal opposition to criticize them and champion the course of the citizenry. Nigeria is almost always a one – party state in which the elite ride roughshod over the masses with impunity. They steal, kill, murder, maim and destroy Nigeria without being questioned. IPOB is definitely an all masses affair. To me it is a group for the Oppressed Majority who have sustained its existence from the word go – with their blood and strength they have fueled its machinations and greased it’s momentum. The fact that it is not a Tribal Association is further buttressed by the fact that it has been outrightly rejected by the Igbo elite and are celebrated by masses of Zones outside the SE. Definitely, the SE is the origin of the IPOB revolution but they are definitely interested spreading. Their Agitations are helping to Restructure Nigeria for good of every Nigerian especially the masses. At least all of us Nigerians can agree on this. The leaders of the organization must be congratulated for conceptualizing and building such a platform. However, they must understand that maintainingthe momentum can be more challenging. This is where their message must change. It must become more broad spectrum, it must become more embracing and nationalistic, it must be all inclusive to attract the thoughts, ideas and wherewithal to push the organization to the next level. Using IPOB Nigerian masses can fight this internal colonialism by the rich and powerful. We can change the Nigeria status quo to be of benefit to all Nigerians.. Through IPOB we can win victory for majority of Nigerians but the message must change. If the ANC of South Africa can do it. If they could accommodate people of all races, tribes, religions, creeds, colours in order to pass the message of freedom for South Africans, IPOB can broaden its surface area to achieve a rainbow coalition that can extricate Nigerians from the cesspool of misrule. IPOB must in that wise incorporate the energies of Almajirei all over Nigeria and link up with other revolutionary forces across the world. It has the opportunity of achieving this harmonious melody of freedom if it can overcome this present recourse to propaganda and transcend to the greater platform of inalienable truths. It’s target audience must also be expanded in scope and its insistence to emancipate Africa and not just the Igbo nation. WHAT IS GOOD FOR THE IGBO NATION IS SOURCE FOR OTHER NIGERIA TRIBES. https://etimes.com.ng/nigeria-good-ipob/ |
