SubscribeThe power of google: Connecting and changing lives
This a true story of the power of Technology to discover and improve life. Sounds like Tale of the unexpected but it’s a true life story. An incredible story of pain, tears, joy and rewarding smile! It seems to replicate the philosophy of life as a W/hole – out of which we all emerged running, as the door opens into the world of light, from the dark side of life with a loud cry, followed by a precious smile – some nanoseconds after! After 33 Years of disconnected family roots Information adventure and mental tortu Douweny was finally connected by Google and united with his ancestral roots – an investment of about 5-7 years of painstakingly probing of the global Internet Search Engine – Google, changing his life forever!
Improving your organisation’s network security
Security of data is better integrated into your system than just being a routine carried out by a personnel; this point is usually ingrained with this analogy “endpoint security is like butter and bread, its better baked in and not just brushed on”.
PDP: A Tower of Babel?
In ancient biblical times, the populace of the City of Babel decided they were invincible, indestructible, immortal and omnipotent… all culminating into masochist ego and arrogance at its peak! So they decided to build a monument to themselves that would reach the heavens, to let God know there was competition! What gumption! What audacity? And God responded by sowing confusion in their midst.
Sustaining Mimiko’s giant strides
The sterling performance of outgoing Ondo State Governor Olusegun Mimiko in the last seven and a half years remains a cynosure of all eyes. This political enigma painstakingly put his feat on the strength that the state must be compassionate to the poorest and weakest in the society and must provide the highest quality of […]
Femi Aribisala, you can’t rewrite the Bible
The time has come for all true ministers of the gospel and pious Christians of all denominations to rise up and express displeasure over the contempt and public ridicule one Femi Aribisala has subjected Apostle Paul and the scriptures to, on pages of newspapers. It should be pointed out to Aribisala and any other Christian that our call to enlist into the Lord’s armies does not include a mandate to vet the Bible. To assume such responsibility is to play God. This is mischievous, condemnable and unacceptable.
Face-off in China
The other day I posted a copy of the now famous picture of President Barack Obama and his Russian counterpart President Vladimir Putin where they both coldly looked into one another’s eyes without the trace of a smile.
The true meaning of recession – Reuben Abati
There have been interesting arguments over Minister of Finance, Kemi Adeosun’s observation that “recession is just a word”, and NAN MD, Bayo Onanuga claiming that reports of hardship in the land is exaggerated propaganda. I think we need to break down the subject further from a layman’s perspective. Recession is a word, no doubt, but it is more than a word, it is an experience: the experience that the majority of Nigerians is going through. If you are at a significant remove from that experience, it may be difficult to know how it feels, and if you are an economist, you are likely to be conveniently obsessed with textbook ideas.
Araba, Biafra and ‘your land or your blood’ (Part 1,2)
I am a historian and my intention for writing this is simply to enlighten, educate and inform rather than to create rancour, tension, strife, division or stress.
50th anniversary: Odumegwu Ojukwu was a proud Igbo man – Dr. Ike Ojukwu, Grandson
Sir Odumegwu Ojukwu, (1909 -1966) was a Nigerian businessman from Ojukwu’s family, Obiuno Umudim Nnewi. Ojukwu was the first and founding President of The Nigerian Stock Exchange as well as Chairman of The African Continental Bank. He was also Chairman and member of the board of directors of some of Nigeria’s most profitable companies such as Shell Oil Nigeria Limited, Guinness Nig. Ltd, Nigerian National Shipping Lines, Nigerian Cement Factory, Nigerian Coal Corporation, Costain West Africa Ltd, John Holt, and Nigeria Marketing Board amongst others.
Recession is not Armageddon – Femi Adesina
Leading countries of the world had fallen into economic recession at one time or the other, and they came out of it, to become strong and sturdy again. Why not Nigeria? The projection is that by the end of the fourth quarter, we would be on our way out of recession. I believe it. I do not spend my days expecting a thunderstorm, and render myself unable to enjoy the rain. “After ye have suffered a while…” Better days will come again, and under this Buhari administration.
In defence of the AGF Abubakar Malami
THE common saying that “uneasy lies the head that wears the crown” seems to be the lot of Nigeria’s Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami. A man with genteel disposition and one that is not enamoured by the attractions of high office, Mr. Malami, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria has been in the saddle for less than two years, but his fight against graft in public offices is already having a backlash on his person and reputation.
Between Speaker Dogara, Governor Abubakar and Bauchi people
I RECENTLY read comments credited to the Governor of Bauchi State, Mohammed Abdullahi Abubakar, that the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara is leading other federal lawmakers to wage a political battle against him because he was not in support of the latter’s emergence as Speaker.
Oshiomhole’s allegations against Iredia
Right of reply DURING the campaigns for the 2015 presidential elections in Nigeria, the then ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, used state institutions, especially the media, to carry out extensive campaign of calumny against its opponents of the All Progressive Congress,APC. This shifted public sympathies to the latter. In the last few weeks of electioneering […]
APC as a mistake Edo State must not make
September 10, 2016, is epochal in the history of the great Edo State. It is a date when life beckons on the people to embark on a game-changing and life-amending venture; a time when the people are called out by the Benevolent, the God of second chance, to right the wrong they elevated to a position of authority and immense responsibility eight years ago.
Edo guber election: Matters arising
THE way things are going in Edo State in the campaigns to the forthcoming governorship election, there is this fear by independent observers that it will not be conducted in a free and fair manner.
