[The Conversation Africa] The violent conflict that erupted in the North West and South West regions of Cameroon in 2016 continues unabated.

Senate Committee Condemns Import Of Substandard Goods Into Nigeria, Vows To Tackle Practice Through SON’s Return To Ports

The Senate Committee on Industries has condemned the importation of substandard products into the country, stating that it was currently working to ensure that Standards Organisation of Nigeria returned to the nation’s seaports to checkmate the menace.  According to the committee, standards regulatory bodies were represented at the ports to check quality of goods before entering such markets, adding that Nigeria cannot be left out of this trend. Chairman, Senate Committee on Industries, Senator Bayo Osinowo, during an oversight function of SON’s laboratory complex in Ogba, Lagos, said that they will ensure SON performs its statutory role by being present at the ports to monitor standard of products being imported into the country. He said, “It is unfortunate that SON is not at the port. When we established SON, it was to monitor all standards of products produced and imported into the country. “When we found out that SON was not at the ports, we decided to address this by l

Nigerians Attack Buhari’s Spokesperson, Garba Shehu, For Bragging About ‘822’ Citizens Killed Daily By Malaria

Nigerians on Twitter have come down hard on Senior Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, for confidently flaunting the number of citizens killed daily by Malaria. Taking to his Twitter handle on Sunday, Shehu had while attacking the local media for giving a lot of attention to Coronavirus, said that focus should rather be on Malaria, which he says kills an average of 822 persons daily across Nigeria. He said, “This morning’s newspapers, all of them have Coronavirus as the lead, cover story. “When will they bring the spotlight to bear on 822 who are killed by Malaria every day in Nigeria?” Going by Shehu’s submission, it therefore means that at least 1,425,348 Nigerians have been killed by Malaria since President Buhari took office in May 2015. This is despite huge sums earmarked by the administration for the fight against the scourge.  Shehu’s comment did not sit down well with many Nigerians on the popular social networking

Samuel Ogundipe: The Bone Is Not Guilty When You Get Cut From Chewing It By Jonathan Abang-Ugbal

  “Our liberty depends on the freedom of the press, and that cannot be limited without being lost.” – Thomas Jefferson. The history of the press in Nigeria is one that can be incorporated as a course for study in the country’s tertiary institutions due to the fact that it has been hailed, abused, encouraged and oppressed by the clergy, nobility and commoners in all strata of the society. The recent years when subjected to an analysis of what is taught in classrooms - the normative theories will definitely leave a journalism student scratching her or his scalp to answer. This piece is not intended for that educational purpose, it is rather, an attempt by the writer to question the way of reasoning of not just public office holders in our beloved country, but, their enablers, apologists, supporters and whatever term is used to describe suit and agbada wearing sycophants who keep praising the woes that have befallen us and those that would betide. My focus narrows to the rece

Decongestion Of Correctional Centres: The Ogun Example By Ademola Orunbon

  Prisons are public correctional institutions established by government where inmates — suspects and convicts — are detained. Concerned citizens observe that over the years, the situation in Nigerian prison cells across the country has become miserable where many inmates who are awaiting trial languish. They observe that some of the inmates have even spent more years in prison than the actual years required if they had been convicted. On Wednesday, August 19, 2019, President Muhammadu Buhari signed a bill into law. This bill is chiefly geared towards changing the name of the Nigeria Prisons Service into the Nigeria Correctional Service. This development is very significant given that it bothers on a salient aspect of social existence and intercourse: crime, as argued by many scholars, is an inevitable reality in the society. To put it differently, there is no crime-free society. What is obtainable is that the rate of crime incidence could vary from one society to another. Th

Sirens, Convoys And The Madding Crowd By Mariam Mohammed Maktoub

  There is a certain apprehension when one encounters the many wailing convoys of the ‘big men’, especially those of governors in this country. It leaves you with gut-wrenching anger, powerlessness and, or awe if you are the pliant and vainglorious type. It seems, despite several avowals by the police and Federal Road Safety Corps that the bawling of the meaningless long windy convoys of the ‘big men’ authorised or otherwise, will be long in stopping. There is not an hour that goes by that one is not rudely assaulted by the blaring sirens of a convoy somewhere in the capital city of Abuja. Early in the year, in what has become a ritual of sort, the road safety corps sounded its intent to clampdown on the reckless use of sirens by the Nigerian ‘big man.’ The corps observed and lamented; “We have seen a lot of people abusing the use of convoys and we have taken it up with the appropriate authority; this year, we would take more drastic actions.” The lamentation of the FRSC, li

Tourette syndrome

Tourette syndrome . Tourette syndrome is a neurodevelopmental disorder which begins during childhood or adolescence. It is characterized by tics (video shown) such as blinking, coughing, sniffing, or facial movements that are a somewhat suppressible response to an unwanted urge. Once considered rare, Tourette's occurs in about 1% of people under eighteen, although many go undiagnosed or never seek medical care. There is no specific test for diagnosis and Tourette's is not always correctly identified because most cases are mild. Extreme cases in adulthood are rare and Tourette's does not affect intelligence or life expectancy. Education is an integral part of management of the syndrome, and explanation and reassurance are often sufficient. The cause is believed to involve environmental and unknown genetic factors. The condition was named for Georges Gilles de la Tourette, who published an account of nine patients in 1885.
