"AFTER an extended hiatus, Nigeria has resumed its controversial testing of rockets at the Centre for Space Transport and Propulsion (CSTP)—an operational arm of the National Space Research and Development Agency (NASRDA).

Dr. Charles Attah Osheku, the new CSTP director and chief executive officer, confirmed Friday, in a late night phone interview, that a series of test firings of experimental rockets were conducted last March and also in April.

The launches, he said, are ongoing: “We are conducting the tests primarily for scientific purposes, but also as training exercises for our technical personal and a challenge to our scientists and engineers, for whom the experience is vitally important”.
A NASRDA scientific officer, who requested anonymity, reported that CSTP has recently launched several rockets “with varying degrees of success”. Some of these, he said, had reached altitudes of three kilometers, possibly higher.

The size and configuration of the crafts, or whether there is foreign involvement, was not specified. The Guardian had, on Sunday, November 16, 2008, reported that CSTP had been secretly launching indigenously constructed experimental rockets.

During The Guardian’s visit to Epe, in 2008, Oluremi A. Fashade, the then Coordinator of the Centre, brought out one of the rockets and released a video of a successful test. The solid fuel missile was about three metres long and constructed entirely from locally sourced materials.

In his interview, Fashade — who now heads Research and Development at the African Regional Centre for Space Science and Technology Education, Il-Ife — said NASRDA would eventually “graduate to bigger and more complex craft.”

Osheku did not reveal the exact dimensions of the rockets his Centre is currently testing. But an earlier interview, with another source, left the impression that these missiles are larger than the ones Fashade had been experimenting with.

Another uncertainty is the site of the launches. At Epe, the testing range was adjacent to the campus of Lagos State University — and may still be.
But when Fashade was Coordinator, he told The Guardian that NASRDA would construct a new launch facility, on a remote island, off Nigeria’s coast.

No one is willing to discuss this now. When the subject was broached to Dr. S.O. Mohammed, the director general at NASRDA, his reaction was: “We don’t want to talk about ‘launch sites’. The Federal Government will decide if, and when, that issue is to be addressed.”

Internationally, rocketry is a sensitive subject, because it encompasses “dual use technology”—instruments that can be used, either for peaceful or military purposes. “Nigeria must, therefore, tread softly,” Mohammed allowed, ” to avoid sending the wrong signals about our intentions, which are entirely peaceful”."

While it is true they are determined, they would have to be recognized by the U.N and other nations at large for the passport or currency to be accepted internationally, so such things do not bother Nigeria now. The major battle they have now is for their referendum and a major headache is in convincing the diverse south south ethnic groups and their leaders, since there are also igboid groups amongst these communities, if this can be actualized then it would be a problem for Nigeria.
MASSOB spearheaded the Biafra thing for long with Kanu as a member until he created the radical ipob now made popular by Buhari.
However l do not believe Naija would be plunged into another civil war, with Osibanjo there.
Buhari takes actions he believes are necessary, osibanjo a lawyer believes in logic, dialogue and discussion, however l pray for the speedy recovery of Bubu(who may have been poisoned by foreign personnels).

If Buhari dies it will will for Nigerias good. Buharis failure has saved Nigeria from calamity because if he succeeded people would have believed that it is OK to be a bigot and practise divisive politics as long as you achieve economic success.

Okay good, but l think the awards in 2002 and 2003 are what matters. In the former years they were merely white imperialists enforcing apartheid.

I mean as at 1951, you wouldn't really call those guys who won it black Africans, and this is probably the reason why they are not in mtis list, that's my point.

"In the past, telecommunication services were only accessible to a privileged few, but now lower-income countries are catching up. In 1998, right at the start of South Africa’s telecommunications revolution, the country accounted for 86% of all subscribers in sub-Saharan Africa, but by 2008, that figure had fallen to 18%, as other markets gained importance and Nigeria overtook South Africa as the biggest national telecommunications market."

Most Africa CEOs rate Kenya for growth plan


Most chief executives of big African companies see Kenya as their favourite investment destination ahead of the continent’s economic giants, Nigeria and South Africa, a new PwC report shows.
The CEOs cite Kenya’s improving infrastructure, big pool of skilled workers and young population as their biggest attraction to the country.
South Africa is ranked second while the continent's biggest economy, Nigeria, comes third in the PwC survey.
Simon Mutinda, a partner at PwC Kenya who was involved in the survey, says CEOs who were interviewed view Kenyans as being highly adaptable to new goods and services due to their high exposure, making them potential customers for their products.
