Nigerian company and bad business continuity and disaster recovery plan, this is not even supposed to be announced, just activate the alternative hot site immediately if there is a good BC/DRP and customers will not even aware.

Watching the show is a good sleeping tablet, Better than priritin or valium,

Nigerian POlice, attackers of the defenceless, the POlice that succeded in preventing Nigerians from passing through Lokoja to Abuja cannot prevent armed robbers from operating with impunity in Kogi State.

I can only wonder what type of Government spend Tax payer's money announcing that a flyover will be at ordinary Mokola junction.

I doubt if you really know Mokola Roundabout and the traffic gridlock there which can only be resolved by a flyover for vehicles coming or going from or to UI and Queen cinema so that those traffic from UCH/ Total Garden/ Onireke/Stadium/Sabo can pass underneath. Akala tried by laying the aspahalt from Molete to Ojoo.

SaharaReporters has not been able to confirm if the Minister for Petroleum Resources has taken any actions in response to the petition in order to save the country further air tragedies.

what action do we expect from the Minister? during the last Senate hearing when Oil Minister/NNPC GMD were summoned, Tonye Cole was sitting right behind the Minister and NNPC GMD.

Jean Claude Van Damme, Chuck Norris join Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger in The Expendables 2

Jean Claude Van Damme, Chuck Norris, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Sylvester Stallone, and Jet Li brought together in The Expendables 2


Mail Online

With a budget of $100 million Sylvester Stallone has brought together the greatest ever cast of action heroes.
The Expendables 2 is due to be released in August 2012 but the hype surrounding it has men around the world rejoicing at the mega stars listed in the film.

The newest additions to the squad are legends Chuck Norris and Jean Claude Van Damme who we get a glimpse of in the newly released trailer.

Norris, 71, plays a good guy called Booker while Van Damme, 51, is the main villain called Jean Vilain.  Vilain is the leader of an opposing team of mercenaries that take on the Expendables in a fight to the death.
Van Damme had previously been offered a role in the first movie but due to a number of reasons refused to take part.

The way of the dragon: Chuck Norris stands in a deserted town after taking out some bad guys
It was reported that he was scripted to lose a fight against Jet Li, 51, which he disagreed was a likely outcome.
Stallone, 65, has since said: 'We’ll have a big showdown between me and Van Damme, which has been anticipated for a long time, so it should be a good one.'

Kung-fu master and all round martial arts hard-man Norris is regarded as one of the toughest action stars ever and once acted with Bruce Lee.
He also founded his own martial arts school called Chun Kuk Do.
Ultimate action men Arnold Schwarzenegger, 64, and Bruce Willis will also appear in the sequel having had cameo roles in the original.

Although there is no actual fighting shown in the trailer the epic cast of individuals is enough of a tease to raise anticipation.
You sly dog: Sylvester Stallone has finally made a movie with all the action genre greats in the same film
The former Governor of California has beefed up for his role and he closes the trailer by firing his machine gun in to the distance.
The Expendables made almost $300 million worldwide and so Sly was given the green light to make a second movie bigger and better than the first.

The Rocky actor has stepped down from directing duties but was still behind the script along with David Agosto, Ken Kaufman, and Richard Wenk.
Eye candy: Jason Statham adds some younger blood for any of the female fans who may get dragged along to watch the film
Time for a kickabout: Jet Li is certain to show off some of his martial arts moves in The Expendables 2

The trailer shows Bruce Willis as Mr. Church explaining to Sly's Barney Ross that he owes him.
Mr. Church says: 'I could have put you in the deepest, darkest hole but I kept you out. Because I knew that one day would come when I knew you were gonna pay me back. Today's that day.' Joined by British actor Jason Statham, 44, Jet Li and Dolph Lundgren, 54, the crew go on a mission to seek vengeance against Van Damme, who has killed one of their brothers in arms.

Former Mixed Martial artist champion Randy Couture is back along with Terry Crews and they are joined by new recruits Liam Hemsworth and Yu Nan. Mickey Rourke does not reprise his role in the new film but surprisingly Novak Djokovic makes a cameo role.
The world No 1 tennis player has already filmed his first big screen appearance in Sofia, Bulgaria, in which he gives a comedic turn.

@werepeleri

Four years interval, and what will the new companies licensed to generate electricity in Nigeria be doing in four years? Nothing, abi? Dey will fold their arms and let Ghana reap all their profit? Come on people. Ghana is praising herself for nothing.

What are all those companies granted refinery licence in Nigeria doing for the past 12 years? Are they not into Subsidy scam instead of building the refinery.
Reality on ground in Ghana is that they have surmounted their elecricity energy problem, if they projected to have  surplus by 2015 and sell,why not.

“If we have a soldier who engages in sodomy with an animal – whether a government animal or a non-government animal – is in fact, a chargeable offence under the Uniform Code? I think that’s in question,” Maginnis told CNSNews.com.

Now, how will the soldiers know a government or non goverment animal, This people must be loosing it.

Lokoja is being turn to a Berlin wall town, the trend is dangerous for the country, one day those coming from Abuja will be prevented from travelling southwards. What if the ACN states of Ekiti,Osun,Oyo, blocks those coming from Abuja to pass through their states?

BAN CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIA SAY JUBRIL AMINU
Written by Alaba Johnson on 07 December 2011.

Some in the audience at the just concluded Northern Peace Conference were stunned when a former minister of Petroleum and former education minister, ex-Senator Jubril Aminu called for the banning of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN).



Jubril Aminu claimed that of CAN was not proscribed, Muslims would be forced to form the Muslim Association of Nigeria. However, what many asked after Mr. Aminu made the comment is what he wants done to the Nigerian Supreme Council on Islamic Affairs (NSCIA) or the Sucpreme Council on Sharia in Nigeria.

It was shocking to hear ex-Senator Aminu, a former Nigerian ambassador to the United States make such a claim especially as the Central Bank of Nigeria is currently in the process of promoting Islamic Banking as an alternative form of banking.

Many at the event are puzzled at the reason why a man, supposedly a statesman would target a particular religion and ask that they be denied their freedom of association rights as guaranteed in the Nigerian constitution at a onference convened to deliberate on pace.

It would be recalled that durng his time as Babangida's minister of education, the same Professor Jubril Aminu introduced the controversial policy of designing Nigerian school uniforms to be compliant to Islamic tradition, a policy that was stoutly resisted by the Christian community.

Reacting to Aminu's calls, a Christian Pastor who has acheived national renown in other fields asked "since Aminu has been born till now, can he tell me how many times he has heard that Christians attacked a church, or that Christians attacked a religious organization. Even Aminu himself know the people who formet violence in the name of religion in Nigeria. As Christ said in Mattew 7:16, by their fruits you shall know them"

But perhaps speaking in a veiled way to people like Aminu who leave the issue of what was to be discussed to attack Christians, the Catholic Bishop of Sokoto, Bishop Mattew Hassan Kukah accused Northern leaders of hypocrisy, a sentiment earlier re-echoed by the Chairman of the event, former Head of State, Gen. Yakubu Gowon.

Said Kukah;

"Today, 99 per cent of our discussions are on Sardauna and about Sardauna; but we are being hypocritical. We are seriously looking at almajirai (beggars) in the North, while the Southern states are far developing their educational system to the extent that, the number in one of their states is more than all the ones in one of our zones."

In the same vein, the Chairman of the Arewa Youth Forum, Alhaji Gambo Gujungu, at the event lambasted Northern leaders and accused them of holding a jamboree which would not change anything. Said he;

“From what we have seen and followed, there is nothing new that guarantees significant future, for the downtrodden Northern masses, be they Muslims or Christians, Hausa, Fulani, Bajju, Berom, Angas, Igala or Egbira in this conference.

“It is based on the foregoing that we make the following observations:

“The Peace Conference is nothing but waste of time and a jamboree and talk show, and also another unique opportunity for elite re-union aimed at renewing political lineages.

“Nothing more than that. There is nothing new and convincing that heralds a new dawn in the North. What is there that we have never heard? What did the main actors say that they have not been saying in the past decades?

“How many Peace Conferences did Sir Ahmadu Bello organise to bring about unity and development in the North?

“Even the South that is ahead of the North today; how many such gatherings have they organised to have a lead ahead of the North?

“In short the so called conference was purely politically motivated and not a genuine commitment as demonstrated there.

“It has nothing to do with the masses but just dancing with their lyrics but not the rhyme, as contained in the hymn book.

“What impact does the August meeting have on the lives of aggrieved Northerners in Maiduguri, Kano, Bauchi, Damaturu, or Southern Kaduna? What impact does it have on the Almajiri children in the streets?

“ACF should note that peace is priceless, and not cosmetic; rather it can only be achieved with sincere and honest leadership which we cannot vouch for in the North now.

“Our sympathy rather goes to few sincere individuals who actively engaged in the talk show but the reality is that the issue of forgiveness and reconciliation go beyond rhetoric or at a tea or coffee party. In fact the debate arising from one of the technical sessions confirmed our argument, for we witnessed how insincerity and sentiment dominated and beclouded the issue of the supposed Road Map to peace. As far as we are concerned, it is a jamboree and waste of public funds that would have been channelled to the ailing but crucial sectors in the North.

“We are conscious of how the New Nigerian Newspapers, Ahmadu Bello University, ABU, along with other legacies of the late Sir Ahmadu Bello are in ruins today, except that the leaders are beautifying them with lies and insincerity.

“Till this very moment, Christians and Muslims in the North are still killing one another, because of religious manipulation of same elite. What have they done by directly concentrating their efforts in recociling feuding communities, and appealing to them to sheath the swords, they, the elite supplied them through preaching hatred, acrimony and false religiosity?”

CIVIL WAR

Moderator: Yes Mr…….Mr. Oparadike.

Question: Chief Awolowo, your stand on the civil war, however unpopular it may have been to the Biafran people…Your stand on the civil war, however unpopular it may have been to the Biafrans or Ibo people, helped to shorten the war. Today, you’re being cast as the sole enemy of the Ibo people because of that stand, by among others, some of the people who as members of the federal military government at that time, were party to that decision and are today, in some cases, inheritors of power in one Nigeria which that decision of yours helped to save. How do you feel being cast in this role, and what steps are you taking to endear yourself once again to that large chunk of Nigerians who feels embittered.

Awolowo: As far as I know, the Ibo masses are friendly to me, towards me. In fact, whenever I visit Iboland, either Anambra or Imo, and there’s no campaigning for elections on, the Ibo people receive me warmly and affectionately. But there are some elements in Iboland who believe that they can maintain their popularity only by denigrating me, and so they keep on telling lies against me. Ojukwu is one of them. I don’t want to mention the names of the others because they are still redeemable, but ….Ojukwu is irredeemable so I mention his name, and my attitude to these lies is one of indifference, I must confess to you.

I’ve learnt to rely completely on the providence and vindication of Almighty God in some of these things. I’ve tried to explain myself in the past, but these liars persist. Ojukwu had only recently told the same lie against me. What’s the point in correcting lies when people are determined to persist in telling lies against you, what’s the point. I know that someday the Ibos, the masses of the Ibo people will realize who their friends are, and who their real enemies are. And the day that happens woe betide those enemies. The Ibos will deal with them very roughly, very roughly.

That has happened in my life. I have a nickname now, if you see my letterhead you’ll find something on top, you’ll find a fish done on the letterhead. Some people put Lion on theirs, some people put Tiger, but mine is Fish. And Fish represents my zodiac sign, those of you who read the stars and so on in the newspapers; you’ll find out that there’s a zodiac sign known as pieces, in Latin pieces mean Fish.

So I put pieces on top, that’s my zodiac sign being born on the 6th of March,….er well, the year doesn’t matter, it’s the day that matter. And then on top of it I write Eebudola. All of you know the meaning of that. You know I don’t want to tell a long story but………………Awolowo school, omo Awolowo, the…… started in Urobo land, in mid-west in those days. They were ridiculing my schools, I was building schools –brick and cement, to dpc level, block to dpc level and mud thereafter. And so the big shots in the place, ”ah what kind of school is this? is this Awolowo school? Useless school” and when they saw the children, ”ah this Awolowo children, they can’t read and write, Awolowo children” that’s how it started, with ridicule, and it became blessing, and now they say “Awolowo children, they are good people” no more ridicule about it, that’s how it started, so the Eebu becomes honor, the abuse became honor.

And so when I look back to all my life, treasonable felony, jail, all the abuses that were heaped on me, to Coker Inquiry, all sorts, and I see what has happened to the people who led, who led all these denigration campaign, where are they today? Those that are alive are what I call Homo Mortuus- dead living, oku eniyan, that’s what they are, those that their lives have gone.

So when I look back, I come to the conclusion that all these abuses which have been heaped on me all my life for doing nothing, for doing good, they have become honor, and so Eebudola is one of my nicknames. So I’ve cultivated an attitude of indifference, I’ve done no evil to the Ibos.

During the war I saw to it that the revenue which was due to the Iboland- South Eastern states they call it, at that time, east central state, I kept it, I saved the money for them. And when they ….was librated I handed over the money to them- millions. If I’d decided to do so, I could have kept the money away from them and then when they took over I saw to it that subvention was given to them at the rate of 990,000 pounds every month. I didn’t go to the executive council to ask for support, or for approval because I knew if I went to the executive council at that time the subvention would not be approved because there were more enemies in the executive council for the Ibos than friends. And since I wasn’t going to take a percentage from what I was going to give them, and I knew I was doing what was right, I wanted the state to survive, I kept on giving the subvention - 990,000 almost a million, every month, and I did that for other states of course- South eastern state, North central state, Kwara and so on.

But I did that for the Ibos, and when the war was over, I saw to it that the ACB got three and a half million pounds to start with. This was distributed  immediately and I gave another sum of money. The attitude of the experts, officials at the time of the ACB was that ACB should be closed down, and I held the view you couldn’t close the ACB down because that is the bank that gives finance to the Ibo traders, and if you close it down they’ll find it difficult to revive or to survive. So it was given. I did the same thing for the Cooperative Bank of Eastern Nigeria, to rehabilitate all these places, and I saw to it as commissioner for finance that no obstacle was placed in the way of the ministry of economic planning in planning for rehabilitation of the war affected areas.

TWENTY POUNDS POLICY

That’s what I did, and the case of the money they said was not given back to them, you know during the war all the pounds were looted, they printed Biafran currency notes, which they circulated, at the close of the war some people wanted their Biafran notes to be exchanged for them. Of course I couldn’t do that, if I did that the whole country would be bankrupt. We didn’t know about Biafran notes and we didn’t know on what basis they have printed them, so we refused the Biafran note, but I laid down the principle that all those who had savings in the banks on the eve of the declaration of the Biafran war or Biafra, will get their money back if they could satisfy us that they had the savings there, or the money there. Unfortunately, all the banks’s books had been burnt, and many of the people who had savings there didn’t have their saving books or their last statement of account, so a panel had to be set up.

I didn’t take part in setting up the panel, it was done by the Central bank and the pertinent officials of the ministry of finance, to look into the matter, and they went carefully into the matter, they took some months to do so, and then make some recommendation which I approved. Go to the archives, all I did was approve, I didn’t write anything more than that, I don’t even remember the name of any of them who took part. So I did everything in this world to assist our Ibo brothers and sisters during and after the war.

And anyone who goes back to look at my broadcast in August 1967, which dealt with post-war reconstruction would see what I said there.

STARVATION POLICY

Then, but above all, the ending of the war itself that I’m accused of, accused of starving the Ibos, I did nothing of the sort. You know, shortly after the liberation of these places, Calabar, Enugu and Port Harcort, I decided to pay a visit. There are certain things which I knew which you don’t know, which I don’t want to say here now, when I write my reminisces in the future I will do so. Some of the soldiers were not truthful with us, they didn’t tell us correct stories and so on.

I wanted to be there and see things for myself, bear in mind that Gowon himself did not go there at that time, it was after the war was over that he dorn himself up in various military dresses- Air force dress, Army dress and so on, and went to the war torn areas. But I went and some people tried to frighten me out of my goal by saying that Adekunle was my enemy and he was going to see to it that I never return from the place, so I went.

But when I went what did I see? I saw the kwashiorkor victims. If you see a kwashiorkor victim you’ll never like war to be waged. Terrible sight, in Enugu, in Port Harcourt, not many in Calabar, but mainly in Enugu and Port Harcourt. Then I enquired what happened to the food we are sending to the civilians. We were sending food through the Red cross, and CARITAS to them, but what happen was that the vehicles carrying the food were always ambushed by the soldiers. That’s what I discovered, and the food would then be taken to the soldiers to feed them, and so they were able to continue to fight. And I said that was a very dangerous policy, we didn’t intend the food for soldiers. But who will go behind the line to stop the soldiers from ambushing the vehicles that were carrying the food? And as long as soldiers were fed, the war will continue, and who’ll continue to suffer? and those who didn’t go to the place to see things as I did, you remember that all the big guns, all the soldiers in the Biafran army looked all well fed after the war, its only the mass of the people that suffered kwashiorkor.

You wont hear of a single lawyer, a single doctor, a single architect, who suffered from kwashiorkor? None of their children either, so they waylaid the foods, they ambush the vehicles and took the foods to their friends and to their collaborators and to their children and the masses were suffering. So I decided to stop sending the food there. In the process the civilians would suffer, but the soldiers will suffer most.

CHANGE OF CURRENCY

And it is on record that Ojukwu admitted that two things defeated him in this war, that’s as at the day he left Biafra. He said one, the change of currency, he said that was the first thing that defeated him, and we did that to prevent Ojukwu taking the money which his soldiers has stolen from our Central bank for sale abroad to buy arms. We discovered he looted our Central bank in Benin, he looted the one in Port Harcourt, looted the one in Calabar and he was taking the currency notes abroad to sell to earn foreign exchange to buy arms.

So I decided to change the currency, and for your benefit, it can now be told the whole world, only Gowon knew the day before, the day before the change took place. I decided, only three of us knew before then- Isong now governor of Cross River, Attah and myself. It was a closely guarded secret, if any commissioner at the time say that he knew about it, he’s only boosting his own ego. Because once you tell someone, he’ll tell another person. So we refused to tell them and we changed the currency notes. So Ojukwu said the change in currency defeated him, and starvation of his soldiers also defeated him.

These were the two things that defeated Ojukwu. And, he reminds me, when you saw Ojukwu’s picture after the war, did he look like someone who’s not well fed? But he has been taking the food which we send to civilians, and so we stopped the food.

 

ABANDONED PROPERTY

And then finally, I saw to it that the houses owned by the Ibos in Lagos and on this side, were kept for them. I had an estate agent friend who told me that one of them collected half a million pounds rent which has been kept for him. All his rent were collected, but since we didn’t seize their houses, he came back and collected half a million pounds.

So that is the position. I’m a friend of the Ibos and the mass of the Ibos are my friends, but there are certain elements who want to continue to deceive the Ibos by telling lies against me, and one day, they’ll discover and then that day will be terrible for those who have been lies.
