Politics / Buhari Is Nigeria’s Problem, Not Its Solution – US Wall Street Journal by slanase(m): 9:00pm On Jun 17, 2016
Abuja - US Wall Street Journal has published an article on its website which was authored by Pete Hoekstra describing Nigerian President, Mohammadu Buhari as “Nigeria’s problem and not its solution.” The article accused President Buhari of stiffness, lack of vision and reactive approach to issues. It reads, “Nigerian President Muhummadu Buhari writes of building an economic bridge to Nigeria’s future (“The Three Changes Nigeria Needs,” op-ed, June 14). “It’s hard to see how his administration’s inflexibility, lack of vision and reactive approach will achieve this. Mr. Buhari notes that building trust is a priority for Nigeria. “But an anticorruption drive that is selective and focused on senior members of the opposition party creates deep political divisions. “Meanwhile, members of Mr. Buhari’s own cabinet, accused of large-scale corruption, walk free. Seventy percent of the national treasury is spent on the salaries and benefits of government officials, who make upwards of $2 million a year. As for Mr. Buhari’s ideas to rebalance the economy and regenerate growth, his damaging and outdated monetary policy has been crippling.
“The manufacturing sector, essential to Nigeria’s diversification, has been hardest hit, exacerbating an already fast-growing employment crisis. “Foreign investors have started to flee en masse. Mr. Buhari makes only brief mention of the country’s deteriorating security situation. But security and stability are precursors to economic growth and development. “Boko Haram has been pushed back for now, but little attention is paid to the structural issues that have spurred its rise. “Instead, the Nigerian government has diverted much- needed military resources to the Niger Delta, where rising militancy has reduced Nigeria’s oil production to less than half the country’s capacity, and half the amount required to service the national budget. “Much of these tensions arise from Mr. Buhari’s decision to cut amnesty payments to militants and an excessively hard-line approach in a socially and politically sensitive environment. “Other ethnic tensions are also growing. In the country’s south, protests have been met by a bloody response from the Nigerian military, stoking the fire and galvanizing support for an independent state of Biafra. “Rising tensions could again pose one of the greatest threats to Nigeria’s stability and future.”
Education / 5 Things You Probably Never Knew Your Mobile Phone Could Do.. by slanase(m): 9:48pm On Jun 07, 2016
There are a few things that can be done in times of
grave emergencies. . Your mobile phone can actually be
a life saver or an emergency tool for survival. Check out
the things that you can do with it:
FIRST: Emergency
The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112.
If you find yourself out of the coverage area of your
mobile; network and there is an emergency,
dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing network
to establish the emergency number for you, and
interestingly this number 112 can be dialled even if the
keypad is locked. Try it out...
SECOND: Have you locked your keys in the car?
Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may
come in handy someday.
Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys
in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone
at home on their mobile phone from your cell phone.
Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door
and have the person at your home press the unlock
button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end.
Your car will unlock.
Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you.
Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles
away, and if you can reach someone who has the other '
remote ' for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the
trunk)...
Editor ' s Note: It works fine! We tried it out and it
unlocked our car over a mobile phone!
THIRD: Hidden Battery Power
Imagine your mobile battery is very low. To activate,
press the keys *3370#
Your mobile will restart with this reserve and the
instrument will show a 50% increase in battery.
This reserve will get charged when you charge your
mobile next time.
FOURTH: How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone?
To check your Mobile phone ' s serial number, key in the
following digits on your phone: * # 0 6 #
A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number
is unique to your handset..
Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. When your
phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider
and give them this code. They will then be able to block
your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card,
your phone will be totally useless.
You probably won ' t get your phone back, but at least
you know that whoever stole it can ' t use/sell it either.
If everybody does this, there would be no point in
people stealing mobile phones.
FIFTH: ATM - PIN Number Reversal - Good to Know
If you should ever be forced by a robber to withdraw
money from an ATM machine, you can
notify the police by entering your PIN # in reverse. For
example, if your pin number is 1234,
then you would put in 4321.
The ATM system recognizes that your PIN number is
backwards from the ATM card you placed in the
machine. The machine will still give you the money you
requested, but unknown to the robber, the police will be
immediately dispatched to the location.
This information was recently broadcast on CTV by
Crime Stoppers however it is seldom used because
people just don ' t know about it...... Please pass this
along to everyone.

Education / Things You Should Do In Your 20s To Avoid Having Regrets In Your 30s by slanase(m): 10:26pm On May 22, 2016
If you fail to focus on building a career in your twenties,
you might regret it. If you don’t have as much fun as
you should have gotten in your 20s, you might regret it.
If you don’t pay attention to learning new things and
going for what you really want in your twenties, you
might regret it. The list goes on and on.
Below are some things you should do in your 20s to
avoid having regrets in your 30s
1. Live life on your own terms.
Someone said “Don’t do things because you think you
“should.” Don’t do what other people tell you to do.
Don’t do what society expects you to do. Don’t sit
around waiting to start living your life. This life belongs
to you and to nobody else. You will not get a chance to
do it again. Live it on your terms.”
Yes, live your life on your own terms and be passionate
about what you do. If you do not live life on your own
terms, the truth it you will never be happy.
2. Build a career
It is important to build a career for yourself while you
are still young. You can embark on programming
projects, online businesses, home improvement,
classes, etc. The time to go about it is now, when you
are still in your 20s. This is because it is something
that’s VERY EASY to put off, and before you know it,
the shorter time periods add up to years, and will get to
a decade.
3. Don’t have kids you can’t support
Don’t have kids because you think everyone else is
having kids, or because you like the thought of having a
child. Wear condoms, use birth control, have a child
when you plan to –children are expensive and you are
responsible for them for two decades.
4. It’s your life, own it. Take sole responsibility for it.
Don’t blame it on luck, other people, circumstances,
it’s all down to you.
People are used to playing the blame game. Don’t play
life on automatic, become conscious of your decisions
and choices.
Our brains are very good at deceiving us into thinking
we are making conscious decisions when in reality
most of the actions we take daily are habits good or
bad we’ve developed.
Learn not to care what other people think of you. The
truth is that everybody is too busy thinking about
themselves that they are not thinking about you. So if
you make a mistake, don’t get all caught up in your
head about what others are thinking – because nobody
really cares.
Discover your self-limiting beliefs and find a way to
remove them and replace them with empowering
beliefs.
5. Make exercising a lifestyle
If you don’t engage in any form of exercise you may end
up regretting it. Your body is the one thing you live with
for the rest of your life. Take care of it. Years of poor
eating habit with no exercise will live your body in a
shape you won’t like.
6. Look after your teeth, skin and hair
Some people don’t give a damn about their body. That
is really bad. You should learn to pamper your body.
Brush your teeth and see your dentist at least twice a
year. Wear a sunscreen and sleep well, take breaks and
rest when you need it.
7. Quit smoking and cut down on your alcohol intake
Smoking is dangerous and injurious to your health.
Cancer isn’t fun and you don’t need to give it any more
chances.
8. Call your loved ones
You get to lose people on a daily basis. It’s best to
appreciate them while they are still alive. They’d
probably like to hear from you once in a while. Give
them a call.
9. Save and invest
Don’t spend it all. Putting money away for old age – or
even a safety buffer – is never a bad thing. Compound
interest is also a powerful thing and it gets better the
younger you start.
Are there things you would have done differently when
you were younger or do you have different views or
opinion from the ones above, you can leave your
comment on this post.

Politics / I Must Go And Meet God Babangida Speaks Out On His Illness by slanase(m): 7:51am On Apr 25, 2016
Abuja - Former Head of State Ibrahim Babangida has finally broken the silence on his illness. According to vanguard, the ex-President debunked rumours of him being bedridden or dead, stating that he knows he "must go and meet God". While strongly stating that he is not incapacitated, Babangida also said that nobody is above illness and that he is at peace with what God has destined. "It is true I have minimised my appearance at public functions because of my ill health, but not to the level of incapacitation as being widely circulated in some media.
"For me, it doesn’t shock me neither bother me because I know I must go and meet God my Creator," he added. "There is nothing really to worry about, my religion has told me." IBB, as he is affectionately known, also expressed belief in the dreams of Nigerians, saying that the future is bright for those who work hard and have hope in the country. In 2014 Babangida spent two months in Germany while receiving treatment. His son, Muhammed, also recently confirmed his father's illness, disclosing that he had undergone surgery and is currently in recovery.

Didn't do any of those you stated above and I probably wrote jamb the year you were born. Some of us in education section might just be keeping up to date because of our kids' education. I have written so many exams after jamb and I keep insisting it is difficult because the secondary school syllabus does not cover jamb. Maybe A levels do, I wouldn't know.

For your info, I am a graduate, I am employed, run a successful business, have risen to the highest level attainable at my work place in my state and I am raising three young men who are shining examples wherever they go. So keep your kidding to yourself.
