Politics › Armed Herdsmen Abduct Kogi Traditional Ruler by zomoears(op): 9:49pm On Oct 01, 2015 |
A band of gunmen have kidnapped the traditional ruler of Apaa-Bunu community in Kabba-Bunu Local Government Area of Kogi State, Oba Adebisi Obademi. Our correspondent gathered on Thursday that the monarch was kidnapped at about 7.30am on Wednesday by suspected Fulani herdsmen. He was said to be on his way to Odo–Ape, a suburb of his domain when the kidnappers abducted him and drove him away to an unknown destination on a motorcycle. No ransom had so far been demanded by the kidnappers as of the time of filing the story. Senior Special Assistant to Kogi State Governor, Capt Idris Wada, Mr. Duro Meseko, while condemning the abduction of the traditional ruler, decried the increasing spate of kidnappings in the area. He urged law enforcement agencies to be more proactive in the discharge of their constitutional and official duties. Meseko also called on President Muhammadu Buhari to quickly address kidnappings in the country. A police source, who spoke on condition of anonymity as he was not authorised to speak on the matter, confirmed the abduction of the monarch. He added that the police commissioner urged residents of the to report suspicious movements and people of unwholesome characters in the area to the police. http://www.punchng.com/news/armed-herdsmen-abduct-kogi-traditional-ruler/ |

Idrismusty97: Very different from the last one, what's with the eagle? Compare to this a year ago....Wow! time fly so fast. BTW there is nothing "Nigerian" about that doodle apart from the colours, Noting that is peculiar to our culture. How many times have you ever seen an eagle in Nigeria self. They should change it, It looks like a logo for a brand of soap or milk. www.nairaland.com/attachments/1747553_nigeriagoogle_jpeg4268bd9cb89974d3ac58b6df6f42ec2a Happy independence day BTW. Truthfully, it looks kinda plain. But it's not lacking in symbolism. Beside the colors, the major rivers are captured, and d eagle depicts d popular national team once feared worldwide(super or flying eagles was once the 5th best footballing national team in d world). The vegetation surrounding d rivers represent fertility and untapped natural resources. God bless Nigeria! |

TV/Movies › MTN Gets N34bn Digital Pay-tv Licence by zomoears(op): 8:07am On Sep 17, 2015 |
http://www.punchng.com/business/business-economy/mtn-gets-n34bn-digital-pay-tv-licence/Cc: prof800, ujSizzle Telecommunications firm, MTN, has acquired a N34bn licence to provide digital pay television broadcasting services in Nigeria. The National Broadcasting Commission confirmed this on Wednesday, saying that it approved for MTN Nigeria part of the country’s 700MHz broadcasting spectrum solely for the purpose. The NBC spoke against the backdrop of allegations that it had sold the spectrum to MTN without recourse to transparency or the Nigerian Communications Commission, the telecommunications industry regulator that is empowered to sell such spectrum through a transparent auction. The companies, which made the allegations, had insisted that the spectrum in question must be returned to the NCC as the rightful custodian. The NBC, however, dismissed the allegations, saying it was not a telecoms spectrum, but a broadcasting spectrum. The Director-General, NBC, Mr. Emeka Mba, said, “I am pleased to inform you that we have successfully licensed MTN Nigeria to use a part of the 700MHz to provide digital pay-TV broadcasting services. We have thus raised N34bn, slightly less than 50 per cent of our budget. “I am pleased to inform you, also, that through this singular move, Nigeria has once again pointed the way to other African countries struggling with the effort of finding financing for their own digital switchover programmes. “It may be necessary to clarify that the use of the band, 470 – 862MHz, solely for UHF television broadcasting service on a primary basis in Nigeria predates both the NBC and NCC. “As a matter of fact, most administrations in the International Telecommunications Union region 1 use the entire 470 – 862 MHz for UHF television broadcasting prior to ITU WRC-2007 conference.” Mba said that in 2006, the ITU planned the entire 470 – 862MHz frequency band for digital UHF television broadcasting for the region 1, to which the Nigerian administration belonged. He stated that the planning of the 470 – 862MHz frequency band for digital UHF television was referred to in the ITU circle as GE-06 plan, saying, “And after the signing of the agreements resulting from this plan, it is now referred to as the GE-06 agreement.” The NBC director-general said the spectrum was sold to enable Nigeria to meet the June 17, 2015 deadline set by the ITU of transiting to digital terrestrial broadcasting. He said despite that the announcement was in 2006 by ITU, it was not until June 17, 2012 that the White Paper giving direction to the process came out. |
Romance › Re: Men: How Do You Handle An Aggressive Woman? by zomoears(m): 6:36am On Sep 17, 2015 |
butterflyatalan: A man is meant to cultivate a woman. That is, to help nature her into the woman of his dreams. By no means do I mean he should abuse her, traumatized her, be controlling, or arrogant towards her. I mean, a man is meant to help shape a woman into what she was created to be. A lot of factors may alter a woman's character ( persinality, gene, environment, circumstances, experiences, etc.). However, the right man will nurture her and help her develop in all areas of life. A real man will be patient, loving, and reprimanded her with love, just like he will himself.
Learn to be a good man today! email me: butterflyatalanta@yahoo.com . Sounds nice...in theory! Reality is a different kettle of fish. A man can be as patient and nurturing as he wants to be, but when a woman is aggressive, it's exhausting to deal with! It's even worse when there's not even a string of remorse for such behaviour. Like, u try to be patient when she gets that way, and she feels like "this one can't do anything, I ll take it to d next level". U wait for her to cool down before discussing d issue, and she be like "what is dis one saying sef!", hisses an walks away. There is no way to reach and teach such a person. Ultimate destination for such a person is self destruction. And u r collateral damage if u don't get out of d way. |
