NIGERIAN STUDENTS GIVE 48 HOURS ULTIMATUM TO ALL SOUTH AFRICAN COMPANIES IN NIGERIA TO RELOCATE

The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has given 48 hours ultimatum to all South African companies in Nigeria to relocate over the xenophobic attacks on Nigerians in South Africa.

Xenophobic attack: Students give South African companies 48 hrs to relocate from Nigeria 
The students gave the ultimatum at a peaceful demonstration at some South African companies in Abuja on Thursday.
During the march the students carried a banner, which read: ‘’NANS Against Xenophobic Attacks on Nigerians.’’
While the students marched, the security men stood and watched to ensure law and order.
The president of NANS, Kadiri Aruna, said in an interview with News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) at DSTV office, a South African company, in Wuse 2, Abuja, that Nigerian students had resolved to condemn the attacks.
Aruna said that the protest would also serve as a warning to other countries trying to underrate Nigerians.
He said that after 48 hours, if nothing was done, messages would be sent to students in all university campuses to bring down MTN masts all over the country.
Aruna said that DSTV and Shoprite would also be affected as the union had put adequate strategies in place to make the action effective.
“All the South African business empires in Nigeria and their collaborators in Nigeria will be affected.
“I don’t want to say we will be barbaric but we will not be lawful in our actions, we will do it and face the consequences, enough of this rubbish,’’ he said.
Aruna stressed that the poor treatment being meted out to Nigerians was particularly insulting given the role Nigeria played in ending the apartheid regime in South Africa.
He said: “Nigeria contributed 80 per cent of the freedom the South Africans are enjoying today because we saved them from the jaws of apartheid.
“Who is South Africa to humiliate Nigeria? So they forget things so soon, let them go back to history and records to see how much financial assistance and what the country did to save them".
The union president said that the situation was inhuman and for this reason all reasonable Nigerians must react.
“In science they say you use malaria to cure malaria, now you use madness to cure their madness, and that is why we are advising them to leave Nigerian soil before 48 hours.’’
He said that the Federal Government should not wait till the dying minute before evacuating Nigerians from South Africa.
Aruna said it was time for government not to only condemn the attacks but take a firm stand by summoning South Africa’s high commissioner and if possible cut diplomatic ties with that country.
He said that the last time the xenophobic attack happened nothing was done, no action was taken and no arrest was made and that was why South Africans repeated the attacks.
Aruna said it was so unfortunate that during the attacks the South African Government refused to take up its responsibility of securing Nigerians and their properties.

“The government of South Africa is criminally quiet and they say silence is consent, and their police are folding their hands while they are killing Nigerians, this is conspiracy, enough is enough,’’ he said.
He said the peaceful rally would continue and spread across the country.

ARE WALL GECKOS REALLY POISONOUS?

Image
  Few days ago I got a shared post from a friend on the poisonous nature of Wall geckos. As usual I copied and shared in a Whatsapp group without any prior search. Not sooner than later had I dropped it that I got a striking question from another friend, any empirical evidence to support this?".  At first I felt why would one need evidence to support the widely accepted notion of the 'poisonous' nature of wall geckos. Why look for evidence for something that has killed people in most parts of Nigeria? Was it not better one took cover? Three days later I decided to give it a thought. I went back to search like the Berean Christian. After a critical study, I found out there are NO scientific evidence to support that wall geckos are poisonous. It's an illusion. The superstitious beliefs about the innocent Hemidactylus frenatus has really gone wild. My findings : 1.Wall gecko (Hemidactylus frenatus) is non-poisonous. 2. The superstitious beliefs a...

VTU AIRTIME BUSINESS

Image
  Is it really possible to earn 45% interest in pure profits just selling airtime? Absolutely yes. This is because people consume airtime as much as they consume water today. If you are still reading this post then it is certain that you are also using airtime (converted to data-MB/GB). Do you know according to NCC, we have over 130 million active GSM LINES in Nigeria as at June 2014. Telecoms Average Revenue Per User in Nigeria is N2000 per month, therefore monthly airtime usage per month is N260 Billion. The popular way of loading a phone with airtime or credit is by buying a recharge card or voucher and then loading it on your phone with a USSD code. e.g *555*XXXXXX# for MTN subscribers. The other way is the digital method called Virtual Top Up (VTU). With VTU, the phone will be directly credited by the vendor and there will be no need for scratching a card or loading with USSD. The buyer will just receive an alert that his phone has been topped up. The buyer also rece...
