LABOUR UNION SHUT DOWN NATIONAL GRID

The Transmission Company of Nigeria says the Labour union has shut down the national grid, resulting in a blackout as a nationwide strike begins.

TCN in a statement states that the national grid shutdown occurred at about 2.19 am Monday, 3rd June 2024.

The shutdown started from the Benin transmission operator to other substations in Ganmo, Benin, Ayede, Olorunsogo, Akangba and Osogbo.

TCN also says power generating units from different generating stations were forced to shut down some units of their generating plants.

At about 3.23 am Monday, however, TCN says it has commenced grid recovery, using the Shiroro Substation to attempt to feed the transmission lines supplying bulk electricity to the Katampe Transmission Substation.

TCN assures that it will sustain efforts in recovering and stabilizing the grid to ensure the restoration of normal bulk transmission of electricity to distribution load centres nationwide.

He stabbed me in the back repeatedly - Yul Edochie

I didn't want to say anything till after his burial. I know many asked why I wasn't there. Why I haven't said anything about it since. I took him like a brother & good friend. I was there for him when he needed me. But he stabbed me in the back, repeatedly. That's LIFE! I'll drop the full details soon so others can learn from it. Be careful what you wish people, it could come to you.

From hawking on the streets of Lagos to selling used cloths(okirika) to becoming a bus conductor, from a bus conductor to the driver himself and then venturing into making bitters drink. After spending a lot of years, just like a musician, I made my major hit song (babyoku bitters) and the rest is history. Going through all of these tough experiences, life thought me never to give up, never to let go no matter the situation. In the year 1995, when I first step my feet on the street of Lagos, if I was told that I will be where I am today, I won’t have believed it, but God did. My message to anyone reading this is simple, never let your guard down, it will only take a while, if you believe, it will come to pass_ Iam_Babyoku

Rivers Crisis: Commissioner for Housing resigns from Fubara’s cabinet

The Rivers State Commissioner for Housing, Gift Worlu has resigned from the cabinet of Governor Siminalayi Fubara.

Worlu’s resignation comes just as the state Commisiskner for Education, Professor Prince Chinedu Mmom also tendered his resignation from the Fubara cabinet.

In a letter addressed to Governor Fubara, through the Secretary to the State Government, Tammy Danagogo, Worlu cited a “toxic” work environment, as well as the alleged attempt to merge the executive and legislative arms of government as his reason for resignation.

His letter states, “I write to formally resign my appointment as the Honourable Commissioner of Housing.

“One of the most difficult decision in my life yet, it is precipitated by the toxic atmosphere that has characterised our working relationship, especially the smouldering arbitrariness of decisions and actions, induding the attempt to fuse the executive and legislative arms of government in Rivers State.

“I thank you for the opportunity to serve in your government and wish you the best as you continue to steer the ship of state.

”Kindly accept assurances of my esteemed regards.”

In the same vein, the Rivers Commissioner for Education, Professor Prince Chinedu Mmom on Wednesday resigned as a member of the State Executive Council.

Professor Mmom referenced a “toxic” working environment as his reason for resignation, stating that such an environment would make it impossible to achieve “my set targets for the Education sector in the State.”

The former Commissioner, however, thanked Governor Siminalayi Fubara for the opportunity to serve in his administration and wished him well.

The letter read, “It is a truism that a calm, safe and friendly environment would stimulate efficient service delivery and enhanced productivity.

“It is however unfortunate to note that my current work space has become toxic and no longer guarantees a favourable environment to enable m

Federal Government of Nigeria suspends Cyber Security Levy

The Federal Government has disclosed intentions to support a minimum of 5,000 National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) members by providing them with N10 million each to finance their entrepreneurial endeavors upon completion of the NYSC program.

The Minister of Youth Development, Dr. Jamila Ibrahim, revealed this information while speaking at the commencement of the first gathering of the NYSC management with leaders of Corps Producing Institutions (CPI) in Nigeria, which took place on Monday in Abuja.

She said, “The thrust of these reforms will be centred on imbuing participants with an entrepreneurship mindset and making skills development the core of the programme.”

“The National Youth Skills programme will play a pivotal role in these reforms. While typically a 12-month programme this year, we’ll start a six months abridged version.

“We expect the ventures funded to emerge from this programme in various strategic sectors driving innovation and economic growth,”

“Though that is already part of the objectives carried out by the scheme, the aim is to partner with it to strengthen the mandate.

“How do we make the scheme more efficient, more effective and more beneficial to both the nation and the Corps members?

“So, we envision a future where the NYSC programme is not only self-sustaining, but also a revenue generating programme within the next five years.

“To achieve this, we will institutionalise the NYSC ventures as an investment and asset management outfit,”

Terrorists Invade Kogi University, Kidnap Scores Of Students.

A Toxicologist that operates a snake farm which harbours 4,700,000 snakes in Nasarawa State was in Brekete Family Radio this morning.

He provided the following information on the things that attract snakes to the house are:

1) Egg shells can attract snakes 15 kilometers away.

2) Chickens

3) Rats

4) Frogs

And whatever it can swallow.

All snakes are poisonous except python.

But the speed of the circulation and strength of the poison differ.

Tying a bandage or tourniquet around snake bite causes swelling and can paralyze the part of the body bitten by the snake.

Trekking after a snake bite increases the rate/speed of circulation of the poison which can result to death.

Drinking cold water from the fridge slows down the flow of the poison.

Being calm and reducing movement helps.

Chewing pawpaw leaf and swallowing the liquid stops the flow of snake poison till treatment is received.

If a snake spits its deadly venom into the eye, it can be treated if the victim seeks help on time.

But if the venom enters the nose, the victim can die in a matter of minutes.

But more dangerous than snake is wall Gecko. It is deadlier than snake.

If it leaks a tooth brush and someone uses the brush to clean teeth without washing it first, the person will die.

The s**t can kill. So cover your pot and water containers.

Forward to help other people.
