The Senate saw mild drama on Monday when the Director-General of the Raw Materials Research and Development Council (RMRDC), Professor Hussain Ibrahim, identified the development of Kilishi technology as its major breakthrough since the agency’s creation, 33 years ago. Ibrahim, who appeared before the Senate Committee on Science and Technology to brief the senators on the activities of his agency, caused a stir when he said the Kilishi technology was the only major breakthrough it had successfully developed for commercial use. Kilishi is a locally spiced roasted meat made of beef, and it is very popular in the northern part of Nigeria. The Chairman of the Senate panel, Senator Uche Ekwunife, had asked the DG to tell Nigerians what specific raw material the agency had successfully produced in the country in partnership with other research institutes. Ekwunife said, “Your core mandate is to develop local materials. “Can you tell us the local raw materials you have developed in the areas of health, brewery, construction, science, and technology, or agriculture?

Nigerians, who have fallen victim to a suspected fraudster, who duped them of their hard-earned money while pretending to be selling ponmo (cow hide), have called on security agents to investigate the matter. It was gathered that the suspect operated under different names on Facebook, including Pastor Isaac Nwaizugbu and Pastor Confidence Ikegwuoha, claiming to be the resident pastor of a Pentecostal church in Kaduna. Both accounts, news correspondent observed, were stolen, with the pictures of a cleric and his wife displayed on them. He was also said to own different Facebook pages, including Dried Ponmo Nigeria, Dried Ponmo Store, Dried Ponmo Dealer and Dried Ponmo Business. Our correspondent gathered that the modus operandi of the suspect was to lure unsuspecting social media users with colourful photos of ponmo and ask those interested in buying to call several telephone numbers listed on the pages. After calling, the victims will be asked to deposit money into some bank accounts and the suspect will promise to deliver the product to their addresses.

I love the fact that you spoke for yourself, I am also on that team. But we are not the only youths Nigeria has. A blend of those on revenge mission, those fascinated by the power of violence and the plain inquisitive can still use all these information as a motivation. It does not make what OP is doing by exposing all these things bad, it is just a narrative we should consider and be guided accordingly. PoliteActivist: 2 Likes |

I agree with you. A good cause can easily be misinterpreted. For me, the stories have become a good source of entertainment, for someone young person it might even give the last piece of encouragement to join(supremacy battles, fear in the eyes of JU men and all)They know they can get killed but that Nigerian spirit of the 'other person wasn't smart enough, I'll be smarter' can still push them with misguided encouragement from what they have read here. God help us! dairykidd: 12 Likes |
