Ebola stires up global fear
A
irports across the world have reportedly started screening passengers arriving from places at risk from the deadly Ebola disease. Already, the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has suspended pan-African airline – Asky - for bringing the
! ! Ebola has been responsible for 729 deaths in West African countries, including Liberia, Guinea, Sierra Leone and one case in Nigeria, prompting the World Health Organisation (WHO) to raise the alarm that the virus was getting out of control. Spokesman of the NCAA, Mr. Sam Adurogboye, con " monitoring are being done at all major international airports. It entails checking passengers’ temperatures with a hand-held machine. “A compulsory blood test will follow if the passenger’s temperature gave cause for concern at any gateway,� he added. The latest outbreak of the haemorrhagic fever is believed to have begun in the forests of remote eastern Guinea in February, and starts with head
symptoms include external and internal bleeding, vomiting and diarrhoea. Sierra Leone declared a state of emergency on Thursday, and called in the army to quarantine epicentres of Ebola. # ia are also looking out for sick people at Australian airports, who could be carrying the virus. A spokeswoman for the Australian government says border protection agencies have been told to look out for
the possibility of Ebola when identifying sick people entering Australian ports. The Bangkok Post also reports that Transport, Health $ have introduced preventive measures at airports in Thailand to screen out the Ebola virus disease. Suvarnabhumi airport director, Raweewan Netarakavesana, is reported as explaining that passengers and aircraft from disease risk countries, especially those from Africa,
were already being thoroughly checked. The post added that people from African countries must present documents showing their yellow fever vaccination and they will be under close watch during their stay. Back home in Nigeria, some states – Abia, Anambra and Oyo – yesterday announced measures their various health authorities are taking to forestall the outbreak and spread of the yet incurable disease.

est Africa’s Ebola outbreak is out of control but it can be stopped, World Health Organization boss, Margaret Cha, reportedly said yesterday. “This outbreak is moving trol it,� Chan reportedly told the presidents of Guinea, Liberia, Sierra Leone and Cote d’Ivoire at a meeting in Guinea’s capital Conakry. “If the situation continues to deteriorate, the consequences can be catastrophic in terms
of lost lives but also severe socioeconomic disruption and a high risk of spread to other countries,� she said, according to a WHO transcript. “This meeting must mark a turning point in the outbreak response,� Chan was further quoted as lamenting. The outbreak is by far the largest in the four-year history of the disease, with 729 deaths so far, including more than 60 healthcare workers, and 1,323 cases overall, she said. Experience shows that the
outbreak could be stopped and the general public was not at high risk of infection, but it would be “extremely unwise� to let the virus circulate widely over a long period of time, she was further quoted. “Constant mutation and adaptation are the survival mechanisms of viruses and other microbes. We must not give this virus opportunities to deliver more surprises.� Chan said cultural prac-

Sounding the note of warning during the graduation ceremony of the school yesterday, Elder Eluemuno recalled that the former governor of the state, Mr. Peter Obi handed over the school to both Catholic and the Anglican churches because he was not sure of the real owner of the school, a move that prompted him to direct all enquiries to the President
General of the community to explain the real owner. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a community school built after the Nigerian Civil War.

he need to establish peaceful co-existence among the Nigerian people gave rise to the establishment of the National Youth Service Corps by the then Head of State, General Yakubu Gowon through decree No. 24 of May 22, 1973, which stated that the scheme was being established â&#x20AC;&#x153;with a view to the proper encouragement and development of common ties among the youths of Nigeria.â&#x20AC;? The establishment of the scheme was to solve issues bordering on: 1) Total integration of the country, especially the youths. 2) Complete elimination of tribalism among Nigerians 3) Speaking and hearing languages of other ethnic groups and above all, intermarriages of all ethnic groups in Nigeria. Since inception, it has achieved many good things too numerous to mention, among which are health, education, rural development and many others. However, things started falling apart when in 2011, rampaging Muslims slaughtered youth corps members who were assisting the Independent National Electoral Commission in the conduct of the 2011 presidential elections. Shortly afterwards, some governors of the northern states dished out cash incentives
to families of the slain corps members as compensation for the heinous act, saying they died in active duty. This amount did not in any way bring back the slain sons and daughters. Even before the 2011incident, corps members posted in the north for primary assignments have had close shaves with death hence the present agitations by parents whose wards were sent to serve in the north. Recently, the Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), Brigadier Olayemi, while addressing journalists insisted that everyone has a right to reject a posting which he does not like, saying that â&#x20AC;&#x153;if you were posted to Sokoto to serve, you have every right to reject it by saying no, I will not go there.â&#x20AC;? It will therefore, be wise if the DG or whichever authority responsible for posting to desist from sending corps members who are not of northern extract to serve in the north. He should ensure that corps members serve in their regions of origin, and if need be, in their home states, especially now that the north is not safe for non-natives. M. C. Chukwuemeka, Ikeja.

Address for U.S Congress By Abdulbaqijari Katsina
T
he United States Congress, consisting of both the Senate and the House of Representatives, totalling 535 members since the 18th amendment of 1971, is one of the most known legislatures around the world with special mention to the United Kingdomâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s House of Lords and Commons. The current 113 session of the Congress is both dynamic and heterogeneous with Joe Biden as Senate President and Joe Boehner as the Speaker of the house The US is among the dominant military, diplomatic and democratic monitor nation of the globe, and the creator of the new world democratic order. As many nations across the globe do practice democracy, whether one or two party system so long as the system is free and fair, the citizenry are protected and justice and equity reign, that society can be said to be mature, developed, developing as the world continue to grow or name it what it wishes. A single word or let me say a sentence from the US is enough to make many governments around the world have a change of direction just like a river. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to wait for the practically non existing Nigerian government approval for us to do a humanitarian work,â&#x20AC;? Senator Mccain said on the abduction of girls in Nigeria. I tend to wonder why a government will ignore many writings, memoranda, street demonstrations and even violent campaigns just to listen and make a change on just a few words spoken by a Senator of the US. Murtala Muhammad died few weeks after a disagreement with his US counterpart about Israel. MKO Abiola died after meeting a beautiful American lady in the cell. Likewise, Hugo Chavez of Venuzuala alleged that the US # 3
' said the West caused his overthrow. But I still look upon people like Sir
Robert Mugabe (Knight of the African Continent), Sir Nelson Mandela (KAC) and Sir Haille Silasie (KAC), all hated by the US and the west, but still lived to see the light of the day. That reminds one of the saying that â&#x20AC;&#x153;he, who is destined to rule, will rule.â&#x20AC;? Sometimes, leaders prefer to write in western media to defend an allegation against them in their home countries. My country Nigeria is a blessed country, rich in both human and natural resources; a country of more than 170 million talented men and women. A country located around the arctic in black Africa, a place once ruled by the English during the colonial era. Her people are generally peaceful and hard working, but ruled and manipulated by a microscopic few. Corruption, insurgency, looting of public funds,
killings and public immorality has become the order of the day. What is the solution to Nigeriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s woes? Change is everybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s responsibility; whether a leader or a follower. Just recently, a violence free solution came to my mind, and I decided to share it with my compatriots, and since Nigeria is complaint to the US Government, and the US Congress is part of the section promoting good governance and justice, I will address the Congress in the following manner if I ever have a chance to address them; Mr Speaker, The Deputy Speaker of the House, The Honorable Clerk, Other Honorable Members of the Congress, good morning. Let me start by registering my unequivocal, impartial and invariable
salutations to the great courage the men and women among you have exhibited in standing with the Nigerian people in their aspiration for good ' Z
bad governance, corruption, insurgency and looting of public funds. This is despite the fact that it may cause some diplomatic muscling and perhaps # ' government and the Nigerian civilian leaders, who are in the fore front of ensuring that the living standard and life expectancy of Nigerians are minimized and downgraded so as to continue their looting of public treasury, and as such re-enslave the masses, thereby making
$ fought some 200 years ago to ensure that slavery is abolished and eradicated. Mr. Speaker, it is to your knowledge that the current Nigerian government has failed as people are dying in their housands every day because of unfortunate causes like hunger, lack ' services, bad governmental plan tagged Â&#x20AC; % and assassinations. Mr. Speaker, before I speak about the state of insecurity in my dear nation, I will like you to permit me to show the deep hearted, unfortunate picture of one Umar Isah from, Rimi Local Government Area, Katsina State, who died in 2009 while waiting in a queue to get an oxygen mask as well as the picture of a 10 years old boy, Moses Victor, from Edo State whose hand had to be cut simply because his parents could not get the money for the purpose medically. In Nigeria the younger generations have lost hope and â&#x20AC;&#x153;survival Z Â&#x20AC; # of the government. The world must act fast; the United States must take the lead; humanitarian assistance as stated by Senator Mccain does not have to wait for any bodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s approval.

Can Ndi Imo rewrite history in 2015? By Emeka Anorue & Nnamdi Anyalewechi

Considering the matrix of failure that has trailed Ndi Imo since the Fourth Republic, another experimental leader will be taking Ndi Imo 20 years behind development. A look at other Eastern states reveals the startling presence Z # ( # @ @

As 2015 approaches, Imo people are bound by choice to ploy their intelligence properly like the farmer who knows that the hope of the harvest lies in the seed! Hence, the man who plants bad seeds cannot run to the gods for harvest. It is pertinent to note that the mortals who conceived democracy were schooled in human behaviour, hence, knowing manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inclination to sentiments and emotions, yet they erected its principle on the peoplesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; collective wish. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Democracy is the prevalence and triumph of the peoplesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; wish through voting. It is the consummation of the peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision to elect Barabbas where Jesus was the optionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. The current nightmares of Ndi Imo stem from their coitus interruptus with â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Imo Charter of Equityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. Achike Udenwa was picked to stand in for Orlu zone since Sam Mbakwe stood for Okigwe while Evans Enwerem represented Owerri as former governors. By 1999, Obasanjo was billed to do a tenure of four years, and pave the way for a South Easterner under the same zoning formula. By 2003, Obasanjo reneged, and everyone
pretended as if nothing happened.

On Thursday, April 24, 2014 at a public lecture on, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Health Care Delivery System in Nigeria: Prospects & Challengesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; at the University of Nigeria, Enugu Campus, Senator Hope Odidika Uzodinma warned the public not to be deceived, that erecting 27 buildings in 27 LGAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s of Imo State does not pass for 27 hospitals. Making a hospital lies with equipping it. Democracy doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t thrive in sentiments of Charter, rotation or zoning. As at today, Okigwe zone with six LGAs amounts to some 200,000 registered voters, Owerri zone with nine LGAs has about 700, 000 registered voters and Orlu zone with 12 LGAs
boasts of about 900, 000 registered voters. The usual trick is on, if Okigwe wants to complete their four years, they should present Ohakim who constitutionally cannot exceed four years. Nonetheless, can Ohakim win election? Or is it another trick to cajole Okigwe into presenting / % # $ / # # more credible candidate in another party? Owerri feels it is their turn, but the recent visit of Senator Chris Anyanwu and Hon.

It is not news that Omuma is the new Mecca in Imo State where all political aspirants and all in search of political alliance go to prostrate. The emerging factors in Imo have completely proven that all who need power must visit Orlu. This assertion rests on a convergence and convulsion of factors currently cascading the political landscape. Onwa, made his name from common place

Business & Economy Casualisation and contract jobs in workplaces have been an age-long battle between workers and employers. The labour unions, over the years, have clamoured for the abrogation of the system, but the menace has persisted in all sectors of the economy due to high rate of unemployment and the parlous economy. Concerned citizens ask: When will casualisation and contract employment end in Nigeria? ABIODUN AWOGBEMI writes.
C
asualisation is described as the altering of work practices so that regular workers are re-employed on a casual or short-term basis. Today, another name has been coined for casualisation; it is now called contract % contract. It started with footballers, who are known to be on contract and transfer, but it later crept into the banking sector and oil companies, which made the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) to describe the issue as having assumed more disturbing dimension # # On its part, the Federal Government seems to be engrossed with politicking and how to subdue, capture, intimidate, victimise and cow perceived opposition. According to a lawyer, Mr Chuks Amadi, the government is no more concerned about the economy and its people, but about its opponents. It now # states. So a lot of money and time are wasted in mobilising political stalwarts in opposition States to impeach governors or defect to the ruling party at all costs. According to Amadi, the amount of time and energy government dissipates on chasing the opposition, if half of it is used to address issues of the economy, there would be respite and succour for the people instead of the rapid rate at which the economy is sliding. If this continues, in the next two years the country may collapse, even though the economy is made to look strong on paper; it is very weak physically.

Why family businesses go extinct in Nigeria While family businesses are on the increase in other parts of the world, the reverse is the case in Nigeria as such ventures are frequently hitting the rocks. Family businesses in other climes provide employments for a huge percentage of the citizens. In Asia and indeed other developed economies, family businesses survive their founders. JOHNMARK UKOKO examines what could be done to ensure that such businesses live beyond their founders in Nigeria.
I
n the 1960s and the late 80s, it is on record that many family businesses sprang up in Nigeria. They included Balogun Group of companies founded by the late Alhaji Lai Balogun; Sanusi Brothers Group of companies owned by the late Ayodele Sanusi, and Ekene Dili Chukwu Group of companies founded by the late Chief Augustine Ilodibe, and a host of other family transport companies. Some other well-known family ' # owned by the late business mogul, Bashorun M.K.O Abiola; the defunct Irawo Group of companies founded by the late Chief Patrick Ayodele Irawo; Sunrise Group of companies founded by the late Chief Ajibade Falodu, and a of Nigerians employment. Most of these businesses thrived while their founders were alive, but folded up few years after their demise. Giving reasons why family businesses hardly survive after their foundersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; demise, former Chairman of Ibadan branch of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), Babatunde Aiku (SAN),

Z businesses were thriving in other parts of the world, their counterparts in Nigeria are winding-up few years after their founders passed on, adding that Nigerians should work to reverse the trend if they would encourage investors to establish businesses that will last for generations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Family businesses are on the increase in other parts of the world, but the reverse is the case in Nigeria where Z % ; of the well-known family businesses wind up shortly after their founders die?â&#x20AC;? $ Z collapse of family businesses few years after their owners passed on is due to the â&#x20AC;&#x153;reluctance by successors to the founders to reposition the businesses greed,â&#x20AC;? adding that family businesses in the country could improve the recognise and support them. ;

According to him, family businesses can improve and survive if reasonable support them by government, adding that the dwindling growth of the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy could be partly responsible for dying family businesses in the society. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most family businesses, which acted as catalysts for development of the economy, have been forced to close down,â&#x20AC;? he said. ? (# described as â&#x20AC;&#x153;apprenticeship tradition of the Jewsâ&#x20AC;? which, according to him, have somewhat fostered the survival of their family businesses, adding that it is crystal clear that majority of Nigerian family businesses have failed the continuity test following their proprietorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; demise. A lecturer at the Lagos State Polytechnic, Mr. Monday Ojo, in an interview with Saturday Newswatch said corruption on the part of successors to the founders of family businesses was one major reason the businesses collapse few years after the foundersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; death.

Business associations: How relevant to economic growth? During the military era, patronage between business associations and the governments was quid pro quo. But today, politics seems to have altered all that. Yet stakeholders donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cease to ask whether business associations, despite its proliferation, is still relevant to its members and the growth of the economy. ABIODUN AWOGBEMI writes.
T
here are many facets of business associations in Nigeria with each claiming to respond to the needs of members, society and the economy. But economic observers view the proliferation of business associations as a way to feather the nests of a few powerful stakeholders. After Independence, there was need to broaden the economy with experts input, a move that led to the coming together of splinter associations to join the chambers of commerce movement in order to assist the government in the areas of policy formulation for the economy. A look into the associationsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; roles, aims and objectives reveal how relevant they are to the economy in the present democratic dispensation. There is the Organised Private Sector (OPS), the informal sector which controls almost 70 percent of the trade sector, the trade union as well as labour unions. ? /J # ' associations which came together as a formidable group to speak with one voice, especially with the advent of politics, which has rocked every facet of the economy where the struggle for the control of the economy is the order of the day. Also, those within to the corridors of power who formed business associations enjoyed government patronage due to political considerations. According to Mr. Steve Onwubiko, an OPS practitioner, the organised private sector comprises associations of business advocacy groups, which are organised to advocate a conducive business environment and % the economy. Members of the OPS include Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN), Nigerian Association of Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture (NACCIMA), Nigeria Employers Consultative Association (NECA), National Association of Small Scale Industrialists (NASSI) and National Association of Medium Scale Enterprises (NASME).
Nigerian Association of Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture (NACCIMA) NACCIMA was founded in 1960 as a voluntary association of manufacturers, merchants, mines, trade groups that network for the common good. According to NACCIMAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s President, Alhaji Mohammed Badaru Abubakar, the association is the oldest, and a forerunner to the OPS, with about 49 chambers, four bilateral chambers, seven business/ professional associations and 241 corporate members. He said the association was established in 1960, and its membership is voluntary and encourages city, state and bilateral chambers, business/professional associations and corporate bodies. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of the major roles of the association is to champion the course of business through its advocacy role
_ # ' # The principal objectives of the association among others are the promotion, protection and # Z business, encouragement of an orderly expansion and development of all segment of the nation and contribute to the overall economic stability of the nation. Also, the association encourages and promotes the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s private sector and provides a network for national and international business contact and opportunities. Despite the lofty objectives and vision of being revered as the pillar of business that supports the growth and development of private enterprises and initiatives, some of the corporate members are of the # ' from the association.

correspondence for subscription and request for assistance, but had not received any opportunity through the association. However, the associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s president stated that members are not supposed to be looking for what the association can do for him but rather what they can do for the
' members and the nation at large. He said in recognition of the role in the growth and development of the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy by government, NACCIMA and other OPS members are represented He added that during the military era, NACCIMA was a reference point for business advocacy in the country when it prepared pre-budget memorandum for the government which was put into consideration # # ' Also, it was the representative of government at every business discussion within and outside the country, but today, politicians have hijacked its functions as only civil servants and politicians represent the country, and sign memorandum of understanding even when such

Also, the Coordinating * # not involve the associations again in business policy formulation making the association to go a step further to have a legislative assistance in the National Assembly who briefs it of any business bill in the House. According to a member, the government erred in its economic policy of not carrying the business groups along in policy formulation which knows where the shoe pinches, and this has led to the constant somersault of government business policies. The associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s president said the body performs many other functions such as providing a network of national and international business contacts and opportunities; promotes, protects and develops
Z industry, mines and agriculture and other forms of private economic activities by all lawful means.

At the time, I did not exactly know how much public education and marketing of my administrationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s policies I needed to have embarked upon before pushing for their implementation. Most of the decisions and actions we took between 2007 and 2011 that became issues are now being replicated in Imo and other states without any quarrel because I have paid the price.

Why I want my second term back â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Ohakim my truncated tenure, but that would depend largely on the approval of my party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). If my party thinks otherwise I will shelve the ambition and fall in line in whatever area it may want me to serve. I am not a desperate aspirant. I know the rope and I know the rules.

of your house in Owerri? Well, I have been kept by the Almighty. But I want to thank the media for their support when my only house in the city of Owerri was bombed in spite of the fact that some miscreants wanted to politicise the tragedy. I would have lost my son and wife in that tragedy but thank God Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m still here talking to you. I have deliberately stayed in the background, not just because of the destruction of my home. There is always a point in your life that you need to sit down and ruminate over things. You know the quantum of unpleasant things said about Ikedi Ohakim. Even in relation to the house, you all remember when it was said on a live television programme that I had six houses on Wetheral road and about 40 others across the state. Needless to mention other properties credited to me in South Africa. If I had another house in Owerri outside the bungalow that was bombed, which I built when I was a commissioner in the state, would I be operating today from my village? The same people that levelled all these accusations are in government today. The governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s son in-law is the Commissioner for Lands, Housing and Urban Development. They are in a ' Z # # of all my properties in Owerri and show them to the world. It is more than three years now, and they have been unable to prove the massive acquisition of properties they accused me of. It vindicates me and goes further to prove @ ' were desperate to grab power. Today, % ' Z Â&#x2013;
Ohakim tea party. What about the criticism of President Goodluck Jonathan by a section of the country? This is an issue that calls for maturity among the political class and their surrogates. The undue bashing of President Jonathan by a section of the society is unfortunate and it is most erroneous to assume that tearing down the image of Mr. President for some perceived gains can elevate anybody. Whichever way we look at it, President Jonathan is the symbol and image of this
country and the idea of assuming that any crisis in the country is Jonathanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crisis is as retrogressive as it is selfdestructive. Nigeria is our project and it is our obligation to make Nigeria work even if we have to shelve some interests. I therefore maintain that the President has not been fairly treated and urge the news media to rise up to the occasion and as situation arises, to give needed direction to the Nigerian populace.
My desire is to complete my truncated tenure, but that would depend largely on the approval of my party. If my party thinks otherwise I will shelve the ambition and fall in line in whatever area it may want me to serve

Osun Guber: Reckoning time only 7 days away Michael Olanrewaju, Osogbo
A
basic understanding of the structures on ground for the election are essential for analysis of the possible outcome. First, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has disclosed that it has registered about 1.4 million eligible voters for the Osun governorship election. The Commission also disclosed that only those who have collected their Permanent Voters Card (PVC) would be allowed to vote. While a civil society organisation - Justice and Equity Organisation - has disclosed that feverish campaigns for the election is reaching the peak, over 400,000 PVCs that would be used to vote in the election have not been collected by the electorate. The group, therefore, appealed to registered voters to collect their PVCs at the designated @>+R ? # which is accredited by INEC to observe the distribution of PVCs and monitor the August 9 governorship election, made the appeal while addressing a press conference in Osogbo. Coordinator of the group, Mr. Bafunsho Tunde, expressed the need for registered voters to visit their various INEC local J.R it is only voters with the cards that would allowed to vote on election day. Tunde, who bemoaned the huge number of unclaimed PVCs during Ekiti State governorship election, advised the electorate in Osun State to collect their PVCs, the only guarantee to electing the right candidate to govern them. According to him, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the distribution of PVCs in Osun State, which began on March 7, 2014 is still going on without any condition. INEC is very transparent, independent, non-partisan and has not been requesting and would never ask for your party identity before it releases your PVCs.â&#x20AC;? A human rights group has, however, raised an alarm that about 400,000 have not collected their PVCs, leaving a net balance of one million
Omisore (PDP) voters. However, about 50 per cent might have collected theirs, thus pushing the eligible = \ { # # Another fundamental observation is that INEC registered 20 candidates and their parties to contest the election. They include the All Progressives Congress (APC), Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Labour Party (LP), Social Democratic Party (SDP), Accord Party (AP), Unity Party of Nigeria (UPN), National Conscience Party (NCP), All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Action Alliance (AA) as well as others. The prominent three seen on the streets campaigning everyday are $JR J!J &J _ !J occasionally. The leading parties have their presence well in the three senatorial districts of the state but with varying degrees. In the Osun East Senatorial District, the APC may coast home with about 50 per cent of the votes, followed ' J!J ' Â&#x17E;Â&#x201A; # Â&#x2013; &J about eight per cent and others with about two per cent. This development might not be unconnected with the fact of the place birth of the candidates of the political parties. Aregbesola of the APC hails from Ijesaland,
Gov Aregbesola (APC) which has six local councils - Atakumosa East, Atakumosa West, Ilesa East, Ilesa West, Oriade and Obokun. Senator Iyiola Omisore of the PDP hails from Ile-Ife with four councils, namely Ife Central, Ife North, @ + @ Modakeke. The votes in this area may go the way of the PDP candidate regardless of the APC campaigns, which actually began in Ile-Ife. Few would probably cast their votes for the LP candidate, Alhaji Fatai Ajibade, as a result of his astute qualities in politics, especially when he was the Secretary to the State Government under former Governor Olagunsoye Oyinlola. The APC may get the bulk of the votes in Osun Central Senatorial District. This is because most of the cosmopolitan communities like Osogbo, Olorunda Ifelodun, Odo-Otina and Boripe lcouncils may vote for the APC candidate as a result of their fanatical support for infrastructural transformation of their areas by the administration of Aregbesola. Even the distant ones like Ila, Ifedayo and Boluwaduro are not left out. The PDP candidate may garner a few votes in the suburb. The APC may ganner more than half of the votes cast,

But Asiphe Ndlela, a psychologist, ties lack of sexual interest to a womanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s relationship with her partner. Ndlela says men need a place for having sex, women need a purpose. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Female sexuality is complex. At its core is a need for closeness and intimacy. Women also have physical needs. When there is an emotional or physical problem, they can have sexual problems.â&#x20AC;? She says lack of interest in sex can also be triggered by family problems, Y ' worries, in-law problems, childcare responsibilities, managing a career and children, previous or current physical and/or emotional abuse, past history of sexual abuse, fatigue and depression. For women, the inability to become physically aroused during sexual activity often involves ' says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The inability to become aroused also may be related to anxiety or inadequate stimulation. In addition, researchers are investigating how ' _ # ' vagina and clitoris may contribute to arousal problems.â&#x20AC;? Ndlela says the biggest problem is that most men get sex education from their friends, TV and porn movies. She says in porn movies, women are portrayed as objects that just get aroused without proper stimulation; who have swift orgasms. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pornography leads single men to ' Z a lot of sex. And they wonder why = Z @ ( is portrayed in porn and they fail to understand this.â&#x20AC;? She says women are much more interested in romance and relationship than in casual intercourse. And while some women love sex (sometimes more than their partners).

# ' % Â&#x20AC; ` understood the importance of honesty in every aspect of life. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The man I must marry must be romantic, tall, handsome, trustworthy and above all honest.â&#x20AC;? This had been the lines of many a woman when asked to paint the picture of their ideal husbands. Every woman wants a man who would tell them the truth at all times; a man who eats, drinks and breathes honesty. But is this quality actually feasible in our everyday existence? Is it a situational variable ' ' Y Z Â&#x2122; ? # !

Being honest with each other doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean you must share every single thought, dream, fear, or fantasy with your spouse. Honesty may be a double-edge sword in your marriage. Knowing what to share and what not to share is an important communication skill for couples to learn and use in their marriage. There are many Thompsons out there who had got into one trouble or another with their spouses just because they felt it was appropriate to share whatever they got involved into. There are valid reasons for keeping a secret # } = defend not revealing embarrassing or hurtful moments from your past. It is possible that the secret involves someone else who asked that the story not be told. There are many couples who have been married for a long time who have personal secrets that they havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t shared with their spouse. The sense of space and the sense of privacy are important to many individuals. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I will never tell the truth about my spending Â&#x20AC; / housewife, who had in the times past revealed to her husband how the saves money from her home feeding allowances, and as a result, the husband had withdrawn her full allowance during the subsequent months saying he had been over indulging her. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tell me; is it a crime to have told my husband the truthâ&#x20AC;??

h o n e s t y i n m a r r i a ge â&#x20AC;&#x153;But it is believed that nobody can ever be hurt by what he does not know. That is why instead of telling lies, one should keep his mouth closed â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it is not dishonesty,â&#x20AC;? says Mrs. Onyeka Igwegbu, a marriage counsellor. If you are keeping a secret because you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to face a responsibility in your marriage, this can create problems. Withholding facts or information your spouse needs to know in decision making is harmful manipulation. Secrets that can hurt your marriage are ones concerning job problems, not paying bills, not revealing an illness, seeing family and friends secretly, lying about how you spend money,
Everything notwithstanding, honesty and trust remain vital to the success of a marriage. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a thin line between what secrets are acceptable and which ones will haunt an individual and hurt a marriage.
If you begin to feel distance in your marriage, and think it may be the result of a secret, then it is time to consult a professional counsellor or a minister. When it comes to marriage, secrets can cause real problems, and so does honesty. It all depends on how they are handled. Whether a spouse knows or not, hidden truth that the spouse should know about can spread through a marriage like a cancer. There are lies or secrets that a spouse suspects may be existent and there are lies that are % ' ' Z # If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re the one doing the hiding, and you Y = % % sure you are right with God. Confess to Him what you have done and turn your life of sin over to Him in turn for receiving new life in Christ. By seeking God and being honest before Him, and receiving His grace, you can
ask for Him to prepare your spouseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s heart and mind for what you are going to tell him or her. Disappointment, heart-break, betrayal, shock, numbness, bewilderment are some of the strongest feelings one can experience. When the truth hurts, your feelings will hit you ' Z # # Z # truth you cannot handle. Most times, it pays to let the sleeping dog lie. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometime not long ago, I pressurised my husband to tell me some of his escapades,â&#x20AC;? Abigail, a small time business executive narrated. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Much as the activities were things that had taken place before I appeared on the scene I felt very bad and painfully retired to my shell, telling myself in the process that I shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have bothered. I learnt the hard way that one should not really stir the hornetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nest.â&#x20AC;? Introducing honesty in marriage may bring
immense pain and feelings of anger and insecurity, but those feelings can make way to peace, healing, and abundant life. Even though it hurts, try to appreciate the power and importance of revealed truth. Yes, honesty may not be an option sometimes, but dishonesty is far from the replacement. Communication in marriage and talking things through with your spouse is essential. They told you the truth, now they can hear needed truth from you about what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re feeling and thinking. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important that they honestly answer your questions, as well. Purging your relationship of suspicion, deception, anger, and fear will make way for peace, trust, respect, security, and a clearer understanding of how to maintain honesty in marriage. As long as you and your spouse choose to love each other, your marriage can handle a shaking without breaking.
Bridal Tips: How much for wedding gift? Continuedfrom last week The experts at TheKnot.com recommend using a 60-20-20 split if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to budget for several events for one couple. Spend 20% of your budget on the engagement party gift, 20% on a gift for a bridal shower or other pre-wedding occasion, and reserve 60% for the wedding gift itself. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Outline your budget ahead of time to see what is doable for you,â&#x20AC;? says TheKnot.com editor Jamie Miles. 3. Family always spends more. Much like the wedding party itself, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a hierarchy when it comes to the amount spent on gifts. And when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re related to the bride or groom, budget a bit more for a gift than you would for a friend. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Your relationship to the couple should inform how much youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re giving,â&#x20AC;? Miles says. The majority of wedding guests who are friends of the bride and groom spent less than $100 for a gift, according to a 2010 survey by TheKnot. com. Relatives shelled out an average of $146 on wedding gifts and were twice as likely to spend more than $100 compared with friends of the couple.
Â&#x2013; Â&#x192; Â&#x2014; ! Provencal is irrelevant. Couples spent an average $220 per guest at weddings in 2013, according to TheKnot.com, including $66 on food alone. But all of our experts agreed that basing the cost of your gift on how much you think the couple is spending on food and entertainment is an antiquated notion. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bad idea to use the price-per-plate as a measure for how much you should spend on the wedding gift,â&#x20AC;? says Jessica Silvester, a deputy editor and wedding expert with New York magazine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t give your best friend a less expensive gift just because she was having a Â&#x20AC; Â&#x2DC; Â&#x2122; Â&#x201D; !

Special Report
Tobacco smoking:Accident waiting to happen Tobacco smoking keeps cutting down the lives of many otherwise promising, young Nigerians. However, the craze for it does not look like a non-burgeoning one even as the producers are doing everything possible to extend their market frontiers daily. CHIZOBA NWOBU explores the unpleasant development looming large on a nation battling with myriads of socio-economic challenges.
A
deola Iyiola is a victim of tobacco related problem. She has never smoked all through his 28 years on earth. But today, she is dying as a result of a disease caused by tobacco - Iyiola is down with lung cancer courtesy of the environment where she lived. She is the only female among other male siblings because their mother died long time ago but their father, also a chain smoker is still alive. She said her father and her other three brothers smoked at least 25 sticks of Z # & Z she know that their smoking habit could cause more harm to her instead of the smokers. According to health experts, people like Iyiola are called passive smokers or second-hand smokers. Passive smokers, according to medical experts, are people living among smokers and are exposed to smoke concentration in the atmosphere they live in. Studies have shown that passive smoking is a cause of heart disease and lung cancer and can initiate or aggravate respiratory conditions such as asthma and bronchitis. If proper care is not taken, Iyiola may be counted among the estimated 46,000 non-smokers
who die yearly from heart disease and lung cancer. A more pronounced case is the case of Eric who had shown no sign of illness. Although he had complained of chest pain some weeks earlier, he was still seen going about his normal daily routines just like any other healthy individual. Or so it seemed. On this fateful day, he was on his way to see a friend who lives on a street adjacent to where he lived; all of a sudden he slumped. Some kindhearted passers-by quickly intervened, and rushed him to the nearest hospital. But, no life of Eric Emmanuel, 32, an unemployed graduate of the University of Benin, Edo State. He died few minutes after arriving the hospital. An autopsy, carried out by the hospital authority revealed that he died of a heartrelated disease following his addiction to tobacco smoking. Emmanuel is just one of the 5.4 million people killed by tobacco use annually, and one in 10 adult deaths worldwide. Experts say tobacco relateddeaths across the world have assumed a worrisome dimension. Tobacco smoking is a global
phenomenon. The World Health Organisation (WHO), in a recent report revealed that about 1.3 billion people in the world are currently smoking and most of them are in the developing countries including Nigeria. By 2020, WHO estimates that global death toll from smoking will hit 10 million. In recent years, the world has increasingly been cleaving into two zones: smoking and nonsmoking. In the United States and other developed countries, huge tobacco business empires are now retreating as they have been chased to the curbs by a combination of lawsuits, smoking bans, rising taxes and advertising restrictions. Now, fewer than 20% of adult Americans smoke. Also, tobacco crackdown is under way in Europe and Canada. But elsewhere, smoking is exploding. In China, 350 million adults are hooked on tobacco, which means the country has more smokers than the U.S. Smoking rates in Indonesia have quintupled
since 1970. In Russia, young boys of 10 years have already started smoking. It is also estimated that this year, tobacco companies would have to produce more than 5 Z Ă Â Â&#x161;Â&#x201A; every person on the planet. @ $ ' Z for the hearts, minds and lungs of new smokers is being waged Ă > %
Statistics have shown that about 93 million sticks of Z # in Nigeria, and every one of Z and that between 150,000 and 300,000 children under the age of 18 months get respiratory infections such as pneumonia and bronchitis from secondhand smoke. More than 40 percent of children who visit the emergency room for severe

Prof. Oluwole
An opinion poll by NOIPolls & that tobacco smoking has become highly predominant among Nigerians between the ages of 18 years and 40 years. The survey also revealed that the prevalence of smokers was highest among males within the age range. According to the poll, 84 percent of Nigerians believe that tobacco smoking has become highly predominant in Nigeria; 88 percent of the people polled said that males smoked more while 47 percent said Nigerians within the age range of 18 years and 25 years smoked more. Dr. Adedeji Afolayan, a general physician at the Isolo 3 # & it was never too late to stop % ' oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you stop smoking in middle age, you avoid most of the increased risk of death. You reduce the % Z Z you give up. The sooner you stop, the greater the reduction in your risk. Dr. Anthonia Sowunmi, a consultant oncologist at the & Q ? # :&Q? < @ $ ' said that giving up smoking could reduce the chance of cancers, cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The risk of premature death and the chance of developing cancer % Z depend on many factors. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The factors include the number of years a person smokes; the health problems notwithstanding, tobacco companies would always want to be in business.

Politics
PDPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll win more states in theWest â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Senate aspirant lost in his local government. Any reasonable person will stick to that response and promise. But thereafter, they just thought that there was no need doing that; that they should give the impression that the election didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go well and all of that. But the issue is that the APC leaders are very deceitful. They want to confuse the people that they still have hope in the governance of Ekiti.
Bode Ola, a thorough-bred diplomat, was senator on the platform of the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), now All Progressives Congress (APC) for the Ekiti Central Senatorial district but was denied a return ticket to the upper chamber of the National Assembly in 2011. Shortly before the June 21, 2014 governorship election in Ekiti, he moved to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and helped the party to victory. He speaks with DEMOLA ABIMBOYE on his plans to return to the Senate and other issues. Excerpts:
Y
ou set the pace for electoral victory of the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria through the court, followed by two other governorship candidates â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Kayode Fayemi and Rauf Aregbesola. How did you feel that time? I felt great because as at that time, nobody thought it could work. We fought an election and we lost as it were. Everybody felt discouraged. But I gave the party all my best. Later, we actually did the primary election within the general election but we lost. We went to court. God gave us victory but I was denied. At the point you were denied the fruit of your labour, what were your feelings? I just believed that the leaders of the party would be reasonable enough and do the right thing. But I think the problem was caused by Bola Tinubu, the national leader, who insisted that he must give the ticket for the Ekiti Central senatorial district to somebody who is his friend. The people of Ekiti kicked against that but he said he wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do otherwise because he was the one +% like it. At that time, the Ekiti people said that they would pay back his money but he refused. He said that we should just abide by what he did. Of course, the people didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t agree with Tinubu. They said I should go back to the Senate, that I had been sponsoring the party. I thought that Tinubu would be reasonable and listen to the elders and the political leaders in Ekiti but he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. I thought that he would listen to the voice of the people and give me what belonged to me but he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. ' and succeed; that whatever he said Â&#x2013; nobody could beat him. I told him that only God has that credential; that He is the one who ' Z said I could do whatever I liked. That was why I went to court but up till now, Tinubu has not allowed the ` we thank God. About four months ago you left the APC for the PDP, in what observers dubbed a suicide mission. Why did you leave certainty for uncertainty, given the fact that the former party was touted as winner of political contests in the South West? At that time, I was actually fed up with that party. I noticed also that they really donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the fear of God. Then, I was led by the spirit to leave them. The Bible says those
What options are open to the new government on this? Can the action be reversed? All these creations have to go > $ ' legislation. I believe those federal legislators will see the action as improper and will not let it go.
who are led by the spirit are the true children of God. God actually directed my steps and I think I left at the right time. With the outcome of the move, how comfortable are you, given the fact that other elections are still ahead? I thank God because on the day of my world declaration, I made it clear that the house of APC had started cracking and that come June 21, it would fall. The house has fallen now. I believe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the Lordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doing. Your ambition to represent Ekiti Central senatorial district was allegedly cut short by the APC national leader. What is your plan now that elections are drawing nearer? I thank God again because he is faithful; he has made another way for me. I am now in a party where people have regard for internal democracy; where leaders are not interested in a select few because of their interests. I am contesting. People in Ekiti have realised that I really worked for them in the short time I was in the Senate. And my stay for four months in the PDP was like 14 years. What I did in that period, someone who had been there for 10 years did not do. In the new party, I toured all my local governments and we got 41,000 votes which six or seven other local governments did not produce. It was a sign of good work and the love the people have for me. Everybody knew I worked and that God rewarded me. So, realising this, people have agreed that I should contest. Against this backdrop, what are your programmes for the people of the zone? The plan is to ensure that we make laws for good governance. There will be special focus on development of early childhood education which I believe in strongly. I know that the present insurgency could be solved by early childhood education because this is the time character and intuitions are formed by children. So we can mould the children early as this is the time they have absorbent mind; when you can turn them into what will make them succeed in life. > # Z then. I will push for laws that will go in this direction. Besides, I will encourage job creation for the youths. Most youths are roaming about now because they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have jobs and are therefore causing problems. If we create jobs and the youths are engaged productively, things will be alright.
Ola Â&#x2019; Â&#x201C; dividends for your zone? We all know what we need here. For example, during my period, I ensured that roads were repaired here; infrastructure that we needed like electricity and water were included in the budget â&#x20AC;&#x201C; things that will make life comfortable for the people. That I did that time. I will be going back to the National Assembly with that tempo and template and continue from where I stopped. PDPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success in the last governorship election was not
! people on ground. Stalwarts from other states and at federal level contributed to the success. What Â&#x201D; ! towards success in the forthcoming election in Osun State? Recently, the Ekiti State governorelect, Dr. Ayo Fayose started moving round the South West campaigning for teh PDP. We are giving him our support and encouraging the people to support our party. This will continue by next week when all of us will go to Osun to assist in the campaign towards PDPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s
The leadership of the party is talking to all stakeholders that are aggrieved. Very soon, all the parties will sheath their swords and come back into the fold
victory. The president will be there on August 2. We are all out to ensure that President Goodluck Jonathan wins the 2015 election in the South West. Do you fear people will misinterpret PDP governors campaign in Osun given how some APC governors were denied access into Ekiti shortly before the June 21 election? No; the people barred from coming into Ekiti for the last election, do they actually have anything to do in the state? The governors of Edo, Rivers etc - what were they coming here to do? We knew, according to information, that they had an intention which was to disrupt peace and thus disturb the election. But if you are a leader of the party and not coming with the intention to _ with money or anything, there is no problem. But to answer your question directly, PDP leaders who intend to go to Osun like myself, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have sinister motives; nothing to hide. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think our going there will be a bad thing as we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have ulterior motives. But if it is found otherwise, we can be barred from coming there like any other person. There has been rancour in the PDP in the South West. How will this Â&#x192; states lost by the party? At what stage is the reconciliation drive in the geo-political zone? The leadership of the party is talking to all stakeholders that are aggrieved. Very soon, all the parties will sheath their swords and come back into the fold. Immediately after the victory of Fayose, the incumbent governor, Fayemi within 24 hours invited him to the Government House to discuss the transition plan. But weeks after, the APC began to allege that there were malpractices - photo chronic ballot papers, etc. How do you react to this? That was an afterthought. Governor Fayemi conceded victory, accepted defeat. That was quite good of him. One would not expect him to do otherwise because it was clear and glaring that the party lost. The PDP won overwhelmingly. He even
Terrorism is rampant in the North especially in the North East. What do you think is the solution to this? I have said it earlier. One reason is that the youths are not properly engaged. They donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have jobs, and good means of livelihood. The governors and government should now concentrate on the youth by training and moulding them. But some people have linked Boko Haram to the 2015 politics and that if President Goodluck Jonathan says he is not contesting, the menace will die down. Do you believe so? To those who believe terrorism is caused by politicians, it may be true. But I believe it was caused by youths not being properly occupied. The way out is to capture the youths, train them to be gainfully employed and guarantee their future. But a situation whereby they think the country doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care for them, they can go with any group they want. The PDP has been in power since 1999 and still says it will continue to rule. Is Nigeria not tending towards a one-party state? Not really. Recently, people defected from the PDP to the APC and vice versa. So, it is not really the party but about the people. The same people are moving from one party to the other. I was in the ACN and later the APC but now in the PDP. Am I not the same person? What is really necessary is the personality of people, # @ ' Z mindset on helping the people; doing what is worthy for the people so that they get the dividends of democracy. Since the June 21 governorship Â&#x201C; making to get back the senatorial seat for the PDP? If you follow my antecedents, you will realise that I am highly loved by my people. Since I joined PDP, I have been going round the senatorial district. I am consulting with the party leaders at all levels so that they can give me the mandate. Above all, I trust God that things will work out well. People are happy; they are ready to support me. How many opponents have you Â&#x2019; Only about three but I know more will still come out against me. What stands you out? The fact is that unlike some other aspirants, I have been there before and my people knew that when I was there, I performed well; that I have their interest at heart and that it will be a good thing for me to go back. They believe in me and I know I will not let them down.

Surveillance Police, prophet under fire over boyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death The family of Raheem Badmus has been stricken with grief over alleged police conspiracy with a prophet, leading to the untimely death of their only son in Akure, Ondo State. TUNDE BUSARI reports.
A
kure, the Ondo State capital, was awash with rumour on July 21 over the death of a young man in the hands of the police. The following day, however, what started as rumour was of the death of one Mohammed Oluwatobi Badmus circulated among residents. The late Badmus was alleged to have lost his life following complication from wounds he sustained while allegedly being tortured by a team of policemen at Oke-Aro â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Bâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Divisional Headquarters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They tortured him with large doses of chemical substance, which he inhaled after which he passed out at a hospital near Lafe Junction Area in Akure,â&#x20AC;? a source revealed. Saturday Newswatch gathered that a self-styled prophet simply ` # to the police alleging that the deceased had stolen a Nokia phone from his church. But, before going to the police, the prophet had reported the Z / Badmus, an elder sister to the late Oluwatobi Badmus, appealing to her to help retrieve the phone for him. The disturbed sister quickly put a call across to her brother instructing him to come to her immediately. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But prophet Bisi was impatient, he demanded we go and meet him wherever he is. I accepted and joined him in his car to meet Tobi. Before we got to Tobi, we met his uncle, Mr Sola Oke, who brought out a Nokia phone, and immediately prophet Bisi claimed it was the missing phone. Shortly after Tobi arrived,
but said the phone with his uncle could not have been the missing one,â&#x20AC;? the sister said. However, when Tobi was told of police involvement in the phone saga, he insisted that Z ' # # resolved at the police division to clear his name. As it turned out, this eventually led to his death. On arrival at the police divisional headquarters three policemen were met on duty. The trio had a discussion with prophet Bisi after which the deceased was called in
â&#x20AC;&#x153;I overheard the last discussion between prophet Bisi and the three policemen that my brother should be taken to a place they called â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Baptismal Roomâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; where he would be tortured to get the truth out of him. At this juncture, I never knew the case was not even indented or recorded. Shortly after, I saw my brother dragged at his back. He was taken to the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Baptismal Roomâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; located near the station. â&#x20AC;&#x153;About 30 minutes later, Mr Ade Awodeyi and the other # so-called â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;baptismal roomâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; with my brother; his eyes already swollen and could not stand on his legs. Instead of taking him back to the station, they handed him over to prophet Bisi and directed that we go home with my brother. Tobi was helped into the prophetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s car and we drove back to his home,â&#x20AC;? she said. Tobi was said to have been exhausted, his hands clutching his stomach. He eventually ended in hospital, but the two hospitals visited, including the family hospital refused to admit him

Sports Update Nigerian wrestler aims at Olympic medal
A
Amalaha stripped of Commonwealth gold A
16-year-old Nigerian weightlifter was stripped of her Commonwealth Games gold medal on Friday because of a positive doping test, a case that raised concerns about how such a young athlete had access to banned substances. Chika Amalaha tested positive for diuretics and masking agents after winning the 53-kilogram (117-pound) division last week, becoming the youngest female to win a weightlifting title at a Commonwealth Games. The gold now goes to Dika Toua of Papua New Guinea. Amalaha was initially suspended on Tuesday after the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Aâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; sample tested positive for amiloride and
hydrochlorothiazide hydrochlorothiazide, which are both banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency. After Amalahaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s backup â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122; sample also came back positive, Commonwealth 3 hearing into the case on Friday. The Commonwealth Games Federation said Amalaha did not contest the
7 and returned her medal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is strict liability,â&#x20AC;? CGF President Prince Imran Tunku of Malaysia, who chaired the hearing, told The Associated Press. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once the tests are positive the only thing we can do is follow the rules.â&#x20AC;? Asked whether Amalaha J
Imran said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;No â&#x20AC;&#x153;No.â&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;? Amalaha set Commonwealth Games records in her weight category with a total of 196 kilograms (432 pounds), breaking the previous mark of 188 kilograms (414 pounds). With Toua upgraded to the gold, Santoshi Matsa of India moves up to silver and Indiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Swati Singh to bronze. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is sad it is a junior and I hope they will learn from this experience,â&#x20AC;? Prince Imran said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the international federation should look at it carefully and see whether there are mitigating circumstances when it comes to the sanctions.â&#x20AC;? The World Anti-Doping Agency has said it will look
into how Amalaha had access to banned substances, and Prince Imram also wants that explored further. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Being a junior obviously there must be some culpability from those that are looking after her, whether it is coaches or managers or doctors,â&#x20AC;? Prince Imram said. He declined to comment on the future of weightlifting, which has been marred by doping cases. Nigeriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s weightlifting team didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t compete at the 2002 Commonwealth Games in Manchester because of a doping ban imposed in 2001 after four members of the 7 Four years ago in New Delhi, three Nigerian runners failed doping tests.
kuh Smarting from her gold medal feat in the women 53kg freestyle wrestling at the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games, ecstatic Odunayo Adekuruoye has set her gaze on the Rio 2016 Olympic Games as her next all important target. The 19 years old wrestling sensation discharged her opponent Lalita Lalita of India in less than two minutes into the gold medal match at the SECC Event centre in Glasgow to the applause of the Scottish spectators and now says there is no going back on pursuing an Olympic dream. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is not the end. This is just the beginning. I am looking forward to the Olympic, for a gold medal, and I believe that by the grace of God and with my coach, Purity (Akuh) and our leader and father, Hon. Daniel Igali, still by my side, I can win gold at the Olympics.â&#x20AC;? Describing her journey to the Commonwealth gold medal, Adekuruoye revealed that the most of the credit goes to the benevolence of Daniel Igali, President of the Nigerian Weightlifting Federation and the family of her coach, Purity Akuh. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This gold means more than the winning bonus money for me. It represents a testament of faith for those who have supported me and
are helping me to build a name in wrestling. I was ashamed of myself when I won silver at the African Championships in Tunis because Igali has spent so much on me, financially and materially, trying to build me up, that I felt I had failed to reciprocate in performance. That was why I challenged myself that I wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to see him seating down and sweating again at the venue in apprehension or disappointment in me. It is much the same way for my one and only coach, Purity Akuh. He has been so wonderful and loving and he has encouraged me so much. He and his wife contributed so much to my success and my life. They brought me into their family, into their house since I was thirteen and I have been living with them for the past six years because the coach said he saw a future in me, believes in me and needed me to be close to him such that we can work together more conveniently without hindrances. His wife immediately me as both a daughter, younger sister and friend and I have remained part of the family. I know that today his wife will be happy and feeling justified and fulfilled for their sacrifice now that I have won gold. That is my biggest joy.
Expect more from Okagbare â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Smith C
ommonwealth lh and Africaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fastest woman, Blessing Okagbare, has been tipped to dominate 100 m and 200 m in the World. After her sterling performance at the Commonwealth Games where she dusted Jamaicans to win the 100 m in 10.85 and claimed victory in the 200 m in 22.25 seconds, her coach John Smith reviewed the race yesterday and said that there is still more to come from the 25-yearold. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve watched her grow up. She is going to dominate the 100 and 200 m in the World for a long timeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;, a jubilant Smith said at the Games Village in Glasgow. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;She is disciplined
and hardworking. She knows what she wants and dedicate herself to a tough regime at achieving that. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m happy for her and Nigeria because she is going to rule the World of Athletics for a long timeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;, he emphasised. Smith said that he was still looking at the possibility of Blessing combining the 100 and 200m with the Long Jump. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;She is good in Long Jump. The problem with the Jump is that it comes in-between the races. It distracts other events. That is the reason why she did not do well at the London 2012 Olympics. Here in Glasgow, we have to shelve that to concentrate on the two and she came out sparkling in themâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;.
Does that mean that Blessing is going to drop Long Jump for good?â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;No. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve to study more on that. The
problem with Long Jump is that it is determined by Television. Unless we are ready to play politicsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;&#x2122;, he said .

West African football in jeopardy over Ebola fear
A
frican football is being put in jeopardy as West Africa are leading a war against the spread of the deadly Ebola virus.

and we want to discourage gathering at this point,â&#x20AC;? LFA President Hassan Bility explained. And on Thursday, the Seychelles Football Federation informed CAF of its withdrawal of the Africa Cup of Nations Morocco 2015 7 about to host Sierra Leone in Victoria in a second round encounter.

F
or more than six months, the As _ _ Q Universities infamously called ASUU embarked on a needless strike that lasted longer than its usual biennial rumpus. Nearly an entire academic session was wasted. I severely criticized the wanton economic waste and disruption of academic calendar of Nigerian students. I argued that ASUU had misused the instrument of strikes to the point that it had become counterproductive, even for them. I thought that it had become demeaning for academicians to use the same method over many years to solve the
outcomes. My take was that ASUU has perpetually used the instrument of strikes as a blackmail weapon to force their employers to â&#x20AC;&#x153;agreeâ&#x20AC;? to what they neither have the resources, nor the willingness to implement. The Federal Government %
its back and avoid political backlash and in the process buy some time. A year or two later, implementation will cease and ASUU will return to the trenches and the cycle will repeat. I have always held the view that the only sustainable way to resolve employee- employer disputes is through collective bargaining, not with knives dangling over anybodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head but with agreements freely reached by the righteousness of positions and strong persuasion, often involving compromises but always allowing superior logic to overthrow inferior logic. I am constrained to raise the same issues with the current embarrassing and bewildering national strike by the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) which has caused so much disruption in the public healthcare delivery to Nigerians. Between lecturers and doctors, I do not know which holds the world record in going on strikes. It used to be the National Association of Resident Doctors (NARD), essentially doctors in postgraduate training who can go on strike up to four times in a year (warning strike, real strike, sympathy strike and non-implementation strike), but so very often the NMA, an otherwise respected and respectable professional association of medical doctors, joins in this denigrating malady. How a group that claims leadership in the health care team can subject Nigerian patients to their professional rights or even for the Â&#x201A; % Â&#x2022; Who knows how many patients have died since the current malady? And at a time Nigeria is facing the most virulent ? the nation - Boko Haram and Ebola Virus - the leaders of NMA have ignored all appeals. Without prejudice to the righteousness of the issues in dispute, I am completely opposed to the use of strikes, blackmail or force in exacting concessions from the government, employers or from the people of Nigeria. Yes, a symbolic one-day strike in extreme cases perhaps when you are dealing with a recalcitrant employer can be tolerated but to call out doctors, Pharmacists or Nurses for weeks from work is simply inhuman and contradictory to their professional oaths. What is worse, when a professional association, rather than a trade union interferes in what is essentially an employee- em-

Incessant strikes & disruptions of economy:Time to halt the growing malady ployer matter, it gets complicated. And this is part of the reason, many of us are asking for the restructuring of our Federation so that we can practice True Federalism. Why should doctors who work for Arochukwu Local Government Area in Abia State, for instance, insist to be given the same emoluments and conditions of service as those that work at the Federal Medical Centre in Ebute Meta, Lagos? Problem of over-centralization! Everybody goes to Abuja with a bowl at the end of every month to share national cake! Some people say Healthcare is important, but so is Education, so is Security, so is Power, and so is Transportation. Some say medical profession is important but so is engineering; so is accountancy; so is policing, and so is Journalism. Every sector of the Nigerian economy needs fundamental restructuring and massive investment. Every Profession needs better pay and enhanced welfare schemes. No one was forced into any profession though, and no one is compelled to remain in any. But none of these can be achieved in a sustainable manner through workouts, work stoppages, strikes or lockouts. Therefore, for ASUU, NMA and their like to continue to insist on interminable strikes as a way of causing reformation in Education and Healthcare is patently inappropriate. Can we imagine the damage that will be done to our fragile polity and economy if all government employed professionals use the arcane strike option as a means of forcing desired change in the way the government runs its institutions. What is required to sort us out and perhaps make employers more responsive to the demands of their employees, is to completely de-regulate the economy,
Â&#x2022; ' 5
transferring much of the economic powers to the private sector and the consumers. This will promote competition and better allocation of resources. Here the consumer is the one that will price all professions and the services they supply, not some mundane colonial carry-over thinking that one profession is more important than the other or that one professional must be assured of higher wages and secured leadership positions which relate to neither the value he creates nor to his leadership impact. When this is implemented in a restructured Federation, where the states and local governments have the freedom to pay wages for services in line with what the market is % we will achieve a better appreciation of the relative value of each profession and every professional within a given profession. The law of supply and demand in a free market remains the most universally acceptable way of placing value on products and services, including those of the NMA members. But until we get there, given the penchant for majority of our nationals to prefer centralization instead of decentralization as borne out in the recent National Conference, we must take some very drastic actions to halt this growing malady of disrupting the economy by some professional or trade groups. First, is that all groups that want to be involved in the negotiation of workersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; salaries and welfare must be registered as trade unions. Government and all employers must no longer negotiate with any other associations on these issues if they % Â&#x20AC; trade unions.
Therefore, for ASUU, NMA and their like to continue to insist on interminable strikes as a way of causing reformation in Education and Healthcare is patently inappropriate. Can we imagine the damage that will be done to our fragile polity and economy if all government employed professionals use the arcane strike option as a means of forcing desired change in the way the government runs its institutions Two, all demands and negotiations with regards to salaries and welfare must be undertaken in line with the collective bargaining principles enshrined in our labour books and laws. Every other method that involves any form of coercion must be outlawed. Thirdly, the approved methods and timelines for declaring trade disputes must be followed strictly by all parties. Fourthly, employers and employees must negotiate in good faith and conscience. They must accept only what they have the ability to deliver. They should never allow themselves to be cowed, bullied or blackmailed into accepting what they know they cannot deliver on and cannot unilaterally repudiate what has been collectively agreed. Fifth, every aggrieved party must have recourse to the National Industrial Court for adjudication. It is the courtsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; responsibility to see to the enforcement of its pronouncements. Recourse to self-help must be prohibited by the courts as well. Sixth, the Nigerian public must stand up against
% Nigerians to pursue their narrow interests % This is why we are united against Boko Haram. The same must be done against every association or trade group whose
whose actions yield similar pains on the people. We must stop bringing disrepute to our nation and then start looking for whom to blame. We complain of falling standard of education. ASUU and NASU strikes have done far more damages to the quality of our tertiary education than the lack of infrastructure, in my opinion, and the unpredictable temperament of our doctors has contributed more to foreign medical Â&#x2019; ? ` our hospitals. Let us stop this malady today, Nigerians.
