OUR PARTY, APC, MUST TREAD THE PATH OF EQUITY... Governor Akeredolu, SAN

 

 

Ogun State Governor, 

Our party, the All Progressives Congress, has started the process which will eventually culminate in the presentation of elected political leaders, who must steer the affairs of the country for another term. We have been able to hold the party’s Convention successfully. New officers of the party have emerged in a process that is widely acknowledged as rancour-free. The level of understanding and maturity displayed by all and sundry has been commendable. Known adversaries have been forced to accept the emerging fact that our party is formidable and ready for the next general elections.

The current socio-economic crises are surmountable. It is commendable that the Government is addressing these issues without drama. The Federal Government and leadership of our great party will come out stronger. We cannot, therefore, afford any internal bickering which holds the potential promise of causing distrust and militating against cohesion, harmony and the zeal to achieve set objectives.

The current democratic dispensation is anchored on the unwritten convention driven by a principle of Equity. Political expediency dictates, more appealingly, that while adhering to the spirit and letters of the laws guiding conduct of elections and succession to political offices, we must do nothing which is capable of tilting the delicate balance against the established arrangement which guarantees peace and promotes trust.

WASTING WEALTH, WASTING LIVES

Paying attention to things like this can be of tremendous help, especially towards improving the situation and changing the  system


After wastes or refuse are generated, what should people do, was a question our reporter pushed to residents close to a popular refuse dump site, and the response was, 

"Dispose it of course"

The reporter followed up with: 

Should it just be disposed or disposed properly?

Then came the salvo:

What do you mean by proper disposal? Is there proper waste? 

Dear esteemed reader, can we get your reaction to the above?

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

 

Today 16/03/2022, the exchange rate:

£1 = ₦783

$1 = ₦550

€1 = ₦670

42 years ago, precisely on 01/03/1980 the exchange rate was:

$1 = 0.78k

Are you surprised? 

We were far more productive in 1980 than we are today.

SUDDEN FALL: CHILDREN IN OTHER CLIMES SAVE LIVES, NIGERIAN CHILDREN SHOULD

Age is not a barrier. She saves life

Sudden fall, also known as: Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA), is a medical emergency that has become rampant in Nigeria, going by the frequency of occurrences, in the recent time. OHCA is revealed by a loss of mechanical cardiac function and the absence of systematic circulation. According to the Medical and Health professionals, each second that passes, when OHCA occurs, the possibility of a good outcome decreases. 

It is identified that most cases of OHCA occur outside the hospital, and the survival rate in Nigeria, is very low, and many out of the few people that survived OHCA, end up disfigured, even when they occur at homes. OHCA, also occur at work place, markets and sporting arenas, religious centers and other locations that human beings visit or gather, and carry out their activities.
