Lol....

lool, i was looking for the can of petrol and hot tyres.

I love it when immunity done expired for political scoundrels.

jesusjnr:
At least he's not selling it but giving them for free.

Whether annointed or not is another matter entirely but one thing for a certain is that it is bread.

And Jesus fed the crowd with five loaves of bread and two fishes, so this is closer to what Jesus did.

Mark 6:41-44 (KJV)

41 And when he had taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed, and brake the loaves, and gave them to his disciples to set before them; and the two fishes divided he among them all.
42 And they did all eat, and were filled.
43 And they took up twelve baskets full of the fragments, and of the fishes.
44 And they that did eat of the loaves were about five thousand men.

God bless.

kudos, congrats, respect, and blessings to you. i read all four pages and you were the only one that posted holy scripture in reference to the topic.

John 6:35

And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst."

Yemi Osinbajo
Guangdong-FTZ marks 10th anniversary of operations • China seeks stronger strategic partnership with Nigeria
Gboyega Akinsanmi

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has disclosed that the federal government will leverage on the potentials of non-oil sector for economic growth and create jobs nationwide.

The vice president has equally said the federal government is irrevocably committed to repositioning of the economy by boosting productive capacities.

He gave the assurance at the 10th anniversary of the Ogun-Guangdong Free Trade Zone (OGFTZ) held at Igbesa, Ado-Odo Ota Local Government Area (LGA), Ogun State.

Dignitaries including federal and state government officials, Chinese diplomats and entrepreneurs, traditional rulers, leaders of the host community and other stakeholders attended the anniversary.

At the anniversary, Osinbajo noted that the federal government was particularly committed to boosting the non-oil sector to grow the economy and create jobs for Nigerians.

Osinbajo, who was represented by the Minister of Trade and Investment, Otunba Adeniyi Adebayo, described the OGFTZ as veritable platforms to attract investments and grow economies all over the world.

With its record in the last decade, the vice president said the federal government would continue to support OGFTZ and other productive entities for the benefit of the people and the country.

He noted that the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari “is driven by an unflinching commitment to reposition our economy and improve production capacities and boost our share in global non-oil trade.

‘’Our national economic policies are geared towards a Nigeria that is high producing export -oriented and productive infrastructure for businesses,” the vice president explained.

“It is our vision to achieve transformational economic growth by leveraging on our demographics and competitive advantage in agriculture and mineral deposits to provide opportunities for long-term investors.”

He explained that with over $2 billion in investments, the OGFTZ had added value to the economy and had created no fewer than 6000 jobs for the people of its host community.

He said the federal government would continue to support the FTZ to grow and create more opportunities, thus commending the Ogun State Government for its support for the FTZ and strengthening its partnership with the zone.

China’s Consul General in Nigeria, Mr. Chu Maoming said OGFTZ was a success story as it had recorded remarkable achievements since coming on stream 10 years ago.

He explained that the OGFTZ had not only developed local industries in Ogun State, but also provided job opportunities to people improving living standards.

Maoming described the zone as a creation of the economic and trade cooperation between China and Nigeria, saying its success story reflected beneficial partnership between the two countries .

He said there were great opportunities ahead for Nigeria/China bilateral relations, saying China “is looking forward to a stronger partnership with Nigeria for more successes for both countries.

“Nigeria continues to be China’s third largest trading partner in Africa and the largest engineering market for us. Nigeria is a great investment destination that is why we have seen a lot of investors coming from China.

‘’China and Nigeria have so many similarities. While China is the biggest economy and the most populous country in Asia, Nigeria is the largest economy and the most populous country in Africa.

‘’The two countries face similar challenges and have similar aspirations for development. Since the establishment of diplomatic ties in 1971 and strategic partnership in 2005,cooperation between Nigeria and China has seen fast and steady development .



‘’Under the guidance of President Buhari and President XI Jinping, the relationship between Nigeria and China has reached new heights, bringing benefits to the people of both countries.

‘’We look forward to forging a stronger strategic partnership with Nigeria through implementing outcomes of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) Summit in Beijing.

‘’The prompt joint adoption of the initiatives will surely inject another impetus into the beneficial cooperation between China and Nigeria. Under President Buhari and President XI Jinping, the relationship between Nigeria and China has reached new heights, bringing benefits to the people of both countries.

He described China as a major driving force, saying the country had contributed an average of 30 per cent to global economic growth since 2013.

Despite slow down in global economic growth, the consul general said the Chinese economy still maintained stability with optimised economic structure and improved living standards.

‘’As we can see, the stable and progressive performance of China’s economy has also promoted trade cooperation between Nigeria and China. In the first quarter, the bilateral trade volume between Nigeria and China increased by 20.7 per cent. This shows trade between the two countries is growing.”

Welcoming the guests to the OGFTZ, President, Guangdong New South Group and promoter of the OGFTZ, Prof. Zhu Layi explained that the zone had been able to build a dream of improved industrial capacities and greater for the people of the state.

Layi, who was represented the Vice President of the group, Mr. Deng yu said the zone had been growing with investors day by day.

In the last decade, the president said: “We have been able to build a dream on the land where we are standing today. It is a dream to boost Nigeria’s industrial capacities. It is a dream to make Nigeria’s industries global. It is a dream to provide greater wealth and value.

He said no fewer than 63 companies manufacturing and other productive areas are currently operating in the zone, employing no fewer than 6,000 people.

He added that the 2.248sq km phase I of the zone project had been completed, noting that the development of the 20sq km phase II would enable the OGFTZ to generate 1,000 jobs every year.

Also at the anniversary, Ogun State Governor, Mr. Dapo Abiodun said the state government was committed to supporting businesses in the state, thus describing the OGFTZ as a catalyst for the socio-economic development of the state.

He said the state government “will continue to provide support for the zone. We are not aware of the resultant effect of the FTZ in terms of employment generation, poverty alleviation, local patronage and product renting, which will put the state on the global map of trade and investment in the long run.

‘’It is worth mentioning that the possibilities have grown beyond the FTZ. It has become a comprehensive development that covers processing of goods and manufacture of a variety of products with the use of local inputs that have boosted the economy of our state,” Abiodun said.

Abiodun promised to address some challenges faced by the FTZ, noting that the state was planning a law to strength Private Public Partnership investments in the state.

He commended the management of the FTZ for the projects executed in the host community, urging the FTZ to continue to uphold best practices, standards and competitiveness.

In his remarks, Chairman of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, Hon. Yusuf Buba said the success of the FTZ was a testimony to the strong economic relations between Nigeria and China.

He said China and Nigeria were strategic business partners with growing volume of trade and strong government-to-government and parliament-to-parliament relations.

‘’The Ogun-Guangdong Free Trade Zone is one of those success stories of our partnership and cooperation with the people of China. Established about 10 years ago as an industrial cluster following an agreement between Ogun State government and a few Chinese businesses.”

It would be nice to read a news article where the journalist/publication knew the difference between Dominica and the Dominican Republic, two separate countries which are hundreds of nautical miles from each other in the Caribbean.

Judge: I’m concerned no one is willing to be Sowore’s surety

https://parrotnigeria.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/Omoyele-Sowore1.jpg

2019

Ijeoma Ojukwu, the judge presiding over the case of Omoyele Sowore,convener of #RevolutionNow Movement, says she is concerned that the activist has not meet the bail conditions granted to him.

While ruling on the application for variation of the bail conditions on Monday, Ojukwu said: “Considering the pedigree of the first defendant as observed in his application, it is rather unfortunate that no one is willing to stand as his surety on those terms.

“On the other hand, it creates an assumption that despite the pedigree of the first defendant, none of his best associates is willing to stand for him. This poses a cause for concern.”

She explained that bail sum is not required to be deposited but when a court makes an order for security, the secure money is later returned to the owner (surety).

The activist has been in custody of the Department of State Services (DSS) since August 3 when he was arrested in Lagos.

Femi Falana, Sowore’s counsel, had approached the court seeking a variation to the previous bail conditions which he said could not be met.

Ojukwu reviewed Sowore’s bail conditions and set aside the previous order which directed one of Sowore’s surety to deposit N50m.

She also reduced the bail sum of Olawale Bakare, the second defendant, to N30m instead of the initial N50m.

However, she refused to vary all the other conditions for bail.

Among the other conditions of the for bail are two sureties who must be resident in Abuja and have landed properties within the federal capital territory (FCT).

The court had held that the sureties must deposit original documents of those properties in the court registry.

The judge barred him from travelling outside Abuja and also stopped him from addressing any rally.

class act ... great role models!

rexwalters:
Who will stand as surety, the wise have learnt from the exploits of Nnenna Kanu, Sowore will flee Nigeria, once he ragains his freedom, he has Yankee kpale, he will drop his Nigerian passport as required by the court, then he will flee Nigeria with his American blue book. The DSS is aware of this fact and are threading cautiously on his release.

Mrs. Sowore could sign over their New Jersey home to a fellow revolutionary in Abuja to act as surety.

Simple solution na.

A Premium Times Oga living in the Federal Capital Territory needs to put up the N50 million, his/her Abuja property and be the signatory to secure Mr. Sowore's release.

Save the audio articles by unknown sources and 'Emissaries' that can't be contacted for verification.

Many don't realise how very valuable an asset Minister/Governor Fashola is the the Federal Republic.

Diezani Alison-Madueke Maintained Rooms In Two New York Luxury Hotels During UN Assembly
Investigations by SaharaReporters revealed that Nigeria’s Petroleum Minister, Diezani Alison-Madueke, booked and paid for two rooms in two separate high-cost hotels during the four nights she spent in New York City during the just concluded United Nations General Assembly.

BY SAHARAREPORTERS, NEW YORK SEP 28, 2012


Investigations by SaharaReporters revealed that Nigeria’s Petroleum Minister, Diezani Alison-Madueke, booked and paid for two rooms in two separate high-cost hotels during the four nights she spent in New York City during the just concluded United Nations General Assembly.

Impeccable sources within the Presidency and the delegation of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) disclosed that the minister’s two rooms were booked under a pseudonym.

Saharareporters discovered that Joe Mordi, one of the minister’s closest aides who works at the NNPC office in London, booked her into a one-bedroom suite at Four Seasons Hotel located at 57 East 57th Street, New York.

When SaharaReporters inquired at the hotel, a staff said that the suite cost $5,000 per night. Ms. Alison-Madueke, who is known around Presidency circles as “Prime Minister,” was also booked into another room at the Pierre Hotel on 2 East 61st Street in New York where President Goodluck Jonathan lodged during his stay in New York. SaharaReporters found out that her room on the 28th floor of the Pierre Hotel cost Nigerian tax payers $3,000 per night. There were also additional charges in taxes and service fees.

Ms. Alison-Madueke arrived in New York in style on a private jet on Monday from London where she had made a brief stop to continue treatment for an undisclosed ailment. She is billed to return to London today. President Jonathan left New York last night around 6:00 p.m. and has arrived in Nigeria very early today.

SaharaReporters also learnt that, apart from the lavish double accommodation enjoyed by the Petroleum minister in two of New York City’s most expensive hotels, her delegation of seven NNPC officials also engaged in other acts of reckless spending. “The NNPC hired ten limousines to ferry its 7 officials, including the General Managing Director,” said our source. Five of the limousines, rented for $1,800 each per day, were stationed permanently in front of the Pierre Hotel while another five were put to the service of the NNPC officials at the Four Seasons.

The Nigerian delegation’s profligacy during the New York trip earned the attraction of America’s mainstream media. New York-based National Broadcasting Corporation ((NBC), one of the top three television networks in the US, yesterday reported that African delegates from the poorest countries stayed in some of the most expensive hotels and shopped in high-priced retail stores during the UN General Assembly. The network focused on delegates from such countries as Togo, Swaziland, and Nigeria. SaharaReporters had earlier reported that President Jonathan was quartered at the Pierre Hotel in a suite that cost $10,000 per night.

International measurements of social indices routinely rank Nigeria as one of the world’s least developed countries. Some 70% of Nigerians live on less than 2 dollars per day. “It is sad that the mindless waste of public resources in New York by President Jonathan and other Nigerian officials was happening at a time when two million Nigerians have been displaced from their homes by ravaging floods,” said an Abuja-based civil society activist.

Super Congrats and much respect!

Russian sniper hit ALL targets in COMPLETE DARK at 2km distance

‘Record’ shot dead! WATCH Russian sniper hit ALL targets in COMPLETE DARK at 2km distance
27 Nov, 2019 14:30 / Updated 2 days ago

An SVLK-14 rifle

In a record-beating stunt, a marksman defied bad weather and total darkness, hitting all the targets, using a Russian made long-barreled extra-powerful sniper rifle at a distance as far as two kilometers.

Made by a Russian firearms company Lobaev Arms, the SVLK-14 anti-materiel rifle was put to the extreme test this week. The ultra-high velocity firearm was equipped with a passive night vision scope that allows one to see in the dark but doesn’t illuminate the target.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8chUIxPTj8s

“We want to set a record for the longest night shot, without any lighting ... by a laser or other sources of light,” Vladimir Lobaev, the weapon’s designer, told Ruptly video agency ahead of the shooting session.

Further complicating the test, bad weather descended on the firing range, worsening visibility and muddying the scope. According to Lobaev, the dark was total – neither moon nor stars were visible at the time.

https://cdni.rt.com/files/2019.11/original/5dde7a2f85f54049033a69a6.jpg


Still, Sergey Shmakov, the marksman, managed to do the job firing five rounds that hit the target set up 1,920 meters away. Though eye-catching, the record was not officially registered – but the company doesn’t want to stop there.

https://cdni.rt.com/files/2019.11/original/5dde763e2030275bae5e96fb.jpg

The team will gradually increase the distance, the sniper revealed. “In the spring, we’ll make it to 2,300m, then 2,500 or 2,600m, and then 6 kilometers. That is, we will go forward,” Shmakov said.
