Why Unemployment, When Nigeria's Military Strenght Is Weak?
According to Ventures Africa, Nigeria places 3rd Largest Economy with a GDP of $377.9 billion, just behind Egypt which has $497.88 billion and South Africa with GDP of $524 billion. Renaissance Capital report says Nigeria can surpass South Africa's Economy by 2014.
So why is unemployment a huge challenge in Nigeria?
We are Africa's most populous nation. i think we can invest in our population. Reduce unemployment, you reduce poverty. For every above age 20 individual there are at least 2 dependants. Now that's why poverty is prevalent.
Our military strenght is yet to be what it should be, Nigeria churns hundreds of thousands of graduates annually. (Ask NYSC). How about recruiting these young smart unemployed graduates. They'd be glad to fight for their country and get taken care of!
Let's take a cue from Developed Countries. I selected America and Canada. See what they do for their people!

A Roof Collapsed in Sheraton's Hotel Banquet Hall
I was looking through some other blog, yes! Which i do? A reader sent in the picture to the blogger.
Severe leaking was noticed in the roof of the banquet hall this afternoon, during a conference hosted by the advertising body of Nigeria. An attendee managed to send in the pictures.
The LIBer said the attendees had to move to a seperate part of the room, but less than a minute later, the roof caved in and (you no what next) the guest rushed out of the conference room out of fear.
The reader also communicated, that the Sheraton's management didn't offer any apologies.

Joel Brinkley's Opinion is: President Goodluck Jonathan Should Be Impeached
Well he is not called the syndicated coloumnist for nothing! He has just written an article that is making waves. Why? Because he is popular? No way, because he's said the truth.
Here's
his article culled from News Rescue
He
Just outside President Goodluck Jonathan's office sat 17 ambulances, just in case he or one of his aides fell ill. They
were seldom if ever used.
No
actual health-care facility nationwide had as many, and in fact a few still
have none at all. But as soon as a Nigerian newspaper took a photo of the
ambulances and published a story about them, they suddenly disappeared —
probably to an underground garage.
Jonathan
is president of Nigeria, which should be among the world’s most prosperous
nations. After all, it produces an estimated 2.4 million barrels of oil each
and every day. With oil now selling at $93.61 a barrel, that’s $224 million in
income daily. And yet many hospitals can’t afford to buy an ambulance. The
reason, in my view: Nigeria is the most corrupt nation on earth.
Sure,
Transparency International lists almost three dozen states as more corrupt —
Chad, Haiti, Laos, Yemen, Cambodia and the like. But are any of those nations
as wealthy as Nigeria — taking in $81 billion annually, just from the sale of
oil? No, not even one of them. So Nigeria steals and squanders more money than
any other nation, making it the world’s most corrupt, by that measure.

What Causes Seizures?
As a child I had friends who suffered
this. Those days and even till date; people stigmatize people who suffer from
this.
So let’s shed more light on this.
Seizures, or convulsions, occur
when abnormal signals from the brain change the way the body functions. Body
movements are controlled by the brain by
sending out small electrical signals through the nerves to the muscles.
Seizures vary from person to
person. Some people have only slight shaking of a hand and do not lose
consciousness. Other people may become unconscious and have violent shaking of
the entire body.
Some people who have seizures
have symptoms before the seizure (sensations) or briefly lose touch with their
surroundings and appear to stare into space. Although the person is awake, he
or she does not respond normally. Afterwards, the person does not remember the
episode.
But not all body shaking, either
mild or violent, are caused by seizure. Many medical conditions can cause a
type of body shaking that usually affects the hands and head (tremors).
A single seizure usually lasts
less than 3 minutes and is not followed by a second seizure. Any normally
healthy person can have a single seizure under certain conditions. For
instance, a sharp blow to the head, may cause a seizure. Having one seizure
does not always mean that a serious health problem exists.
But if you have a first-time
seizure, you should be checked by your doctor. It is important to rule out a
serious illness that may have caused the seizure. Fever seizures (febrile
convulsions) are the most common cause of a single seizure, especially in children.

Here's MediaTakeout.Com's View About Kim K's Pregnancy!
Well, MediaTakeOut.com seems to keep a close eye on pretty Kim Kardashian. They still think she's not pregnant.
They say she was caught having dinner with her bff, but forgot to put on her extra large baby bump. And they didn't fail to mention that lala had a face on because she knew her friend had messed up!
Continue.
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). Do You Have That Skill?
First Aid Skills are very
important, they are lifesaving skills. The first four minutes after a casualty
collapses are life threathning.
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)
is an emergency procedure that is performed in a bid to manually
preserve intact brain function until better measures can be taken to restore
spontaneous blood circulation and breathing in a person in unconsciousness or cardiac
arrest.
The video above justwas captured in Perth Supermarket, Australia. A builder resuscitated a child who
had collapsed, lost consciousness, and stopped breathing while shopping with
her mum in Australia.
The CCTV footage shows the two
year old Shaylar’s mum, Amy Collard, carrying her to the supermarket’s counter.
The builder Mr. Rowan O'Neill, rushed
to help the stricken girl - and fearing she was choking, he turned her upside down
in an effort to revive her. (First Aid
Skill).
Mr. O'Neill also attempted the
Heimlich manoeuvre, by shaking her and patting her on the back.
When that failed, Mr. O'Neill
begins mouth-to-mouth resuscitation (First
Aid Skill) - and after 90 seconds the girl opened her eyes, local media
said.

Naija Events: Nigerian Federal High Court Rules Deregulation of Petroleum Products As Illegal!
Nigeria’s Federal High Court Today declared that the policy
of deregulation is unconstitutional, illegal, null and void. The court ordered
Nigeria’s Federal Government to fix and make public by publishing regularly the
prices of petroleum products. #gbam!
The defendants of the case, their agents, and collaborators
were ordered to desist from deregulating the downstream sector of the petroleum
industry, and also from failing to fix the prices of petroleum products as
mandatorily required by the Petroleum Act and the Price Control Act.
Mr. Bamidele Aturu thanked the Court for its judgment, but
also advised Nigerian to watch out and be alert and challenge all increase of
petroleum products.
So all dem users of social network stretch thou thine
antennae to implicate all them wicked petroleum product sellers. Hehehe!

A 19-year-old boy, Felix Inia and his 16-year-old
brother, Stanley are now cooling their heels at the headquarters of the Delta
State Police Command, Asaba, for allegedly defiling their six-year-old
stepsister, Precious Kankamor.
The incident, which eventually led to the death
of the victim, occurred at Ogbe-Ijoh community, Warri South Local Government
Area of the state. The suspects were said to have had carnal knowledge of the
minor by forcefully penetrating her, which led to severe injuries in the

Besides the injuries sustained after the alleged
sexual abuse, little Miss Precious later developed protruding stomach, leading
to medical complications that eventually cut short the life of the victim.
Investigation revealed that the suspects’ mother got married to the father of
the deceased after her first marriage ended with the death of Mr. Inia.
The now

unsuspecting, had eyes on little Miss Precious immediately they stepped into
their new home.

Kelly Rowland Responds to Keyshia Cole’s Twitter Comments
It's
been over a month since Beyoncé and Destiny's Child wowed Superbowl audiences with
their electric halftime show, but there's been a lot of chatter around Keyshia Cole's criticism
of Michelle Williams' performance.
Now, Michelles' bandmate Kelly Rowland is standing up for her friend, speaking out
for the first time about Cole's negative comments. *Yeah i said it!-Negative*
Kelly said: "It
didn't even make it on my radar until other people brought it up, It didn't even matter. We had a wonderful
performance, and that's all I cared about. I was with my sisters and the three
of us matter to each other, and that's all that counts."
She
adds, "we matter to a lot more people, with all due respect, than her. So,
I really don't care what she said."
As
a member of the most popular girl group in a decade, Rowland clearly has had
plenty of experience dealing with haters. Williams, on the other hand, seems to
have decided to simply ignore Cole's comments altogether.
