Students of Comprehensive Secondary School Nkume Njaba in Njaba Local Government Area of Imo State were on Monday sent out of the examination hall by suspected Indigenous Peoples of Nigeria (IPOB) operatives.

The students and staff were pursued by enforcers of the Sit-at-home order while they were about to write the West African Examination Council (WAEC) English Language Examination.

It was learnt that a group of men came into the school around 8.30 to chase the students, staff and invigilators and burnt down all the motorcycles parked in the premises.

Narrating her experience, a student, who gave her name as Ngozi, said: “Unknown gunmen came into the hall to ask us to stop our exams and chased us out. They also burnt bikes.”

Residents of Imo State on Monday made a volte-face and carried out their usual daily business activities.

While few vehicles were seen on the roads, some businesses, fast-food centres, artisans, street/road side traders, super markets and mobile food vendors operated freely better than last Monday when streets and roads were deserted.

Although businesses at the major markets were not at its peak, a reasonable percentage of buying and selling went on in virtually all the local government areas of the state just as Okada riders ferried passengers to their various destinations unhindered.

In Owerri, the state capital, Wetheral, Douglas, Tetlow, Onitsha, Port Harcourt, Okigwe, Mbaise, Aba and Orlu roads, vehicles were seen plying the roads even as intra and inter-city bus services were available for commuters.

However, some fear stricken sensitive institutions such as banks public and private schools, apprehensive of possible invasion by hoodlums and miscreants, remained closed for customers, students and pupils.

The hospitality industry heaved a sigh of relief with guests seen trooping into hotels

A resident and a businessman, Nick Iwuoha advised the security agencies to show more capacity of protecting the people during the enforced order.

“If our security agencies have shown the slightest sign that they are capable of protecting the people, many citizens will defy these sit-at-home orders.

“It is becoming rampant and frivolous. I trust the Igbo man, just a matter of time, it will lose steam and public sympathy and the people will defy it. In the meantime, let the security agencies shown some capacity,” he said.

The Importance of promoting good Reading habits in students. They say it for a reason that books are your best friends . While growing up the best habit you can inculcate is reading because you become what you read.

The books that you read play a very important role in your up-bringing as they are your guide for the journey of life. Here are a few personality attributes which are highly influenced by regular reading habit.

Improves Communication Books are the best way to get acquainted with extra- ordinary words in the English language. Reading books will help you learn new words and demonstrate different ways in which you can use them in your daily expression. This will ultimately improve your personal vocabulary.

Also to understand the grammar of any language, reading stories and articles of that particular language will increase your depth of understanding about it.

Better Ability to Comprehend Kids who develop the habit of reading at an early age are good at comprehending situations and develop a better sense of understanding than those who do not read.

They are capable of understanding serious situations and analyze the cause and effect scenario maturely. To develop reading abilities early on, try reading aloud and take baby steps towards improvement. Don’t be too hard on yourself, take pleasure in reading.

Imparts Knowledge There is no denying in the fact that reading imparts knowledge in a person. Gaining knowledge makes you feel confident about the subject and invokes your interest deeper into the topics.

For cognitive development, school curriculums also include various interesting topics so that students are keen about the subject from young age. Aids Sleeping Reading before bedtime helps fight insomnia better than indulgence in the electronic devices which works totally opposite.

Books aid your sleep naturally and involve your brain into knowledgeable things before sleeping. Psychologically it is recommended that people should think about healthy thoughts before going to bed.

A good book read before bed time can work wonders for the peace of mind. Escape From Real World Books give a person the unstoppable freedom to explore the world of fiction.

The writers as well as the readers are free to take up topics of their choice and throw open the gates of the fictitious world in their mind.

Some works of fiction roll over books after books but never lose the grip of the readers on the series. It is because creative minds are powerhouses of exciting amusements and we can only agree more if we had read some of those amazing creations.

Never in my life have I ever felt so embarrassed and so alone. I feel that it’s about time to let others know that miscarriage is something that has been put aside for far too long.

It took me a couple of weeks to decide to share my story in this way. But I feel that it’s about time to let others know that miscarriage is something that has been put aside for far too long. with the victims being left in deafening silence in the corner.

I had my miscarriage last year in February. I was on a train home from work at around 7pm when I felt sharp pains in my tummy and then I felt that my trousers were wet.

I was bleeding. Ashamed, worried and panicking about what is going on with my 5 week old baby inside me, I took the first cab I saw and got myself to A&E.

I got there and somehow I knew that it was too late. Still I was hoping that it wasn’t. I came to the next available staff in A&E to tell them what happened and I was told to sit on a chair and wait to be called in by a nurse to see a doctor.

My trousers where messy with blood and my tummy was still hurting. I cried silently in that little corner where they’ve put me to wait. I waited for 3 hours for someone to call me.

By the time someone has called me to take my bloods…the pain was gone and the blood on my trousers where drying up….I knew my baby was gone.

I’ve left a mess on the chair and I was so embarrassed. After they took my bloods and cannulated me…the nurse told me to go back to where I was waiting before and wait for someone to call me to see a doctor. I went to sit back on that same chair.

I decided to go to the toilet and tried to clean myself up. I looked at myself in the mirror and asked myself what I did wrong. My eyes were puffy from crying.

I took a load of tissue to suck up the blood that was coming out of me and tried to clean up my underwear. When I came out of the toilet…I asked the nurse if I was called but her reply was no.

I waited and waited then my fiancé came and held me tight. He kindly brought me clean change of clothes and I went to change my trousers.

Never in my life have I ever felt so embarrassed and so alone. I have suffered depression after that event. There are some things that you wish you could forget.

But they remain embedded in your mind and heart. Miscarriage is more than losing one little life that did not get the chance to meet it’s mum and dad.

Unfortunately, miscarriage can cause someone (the mother of the father) to lose their mind and themselves. I’m a witness to that. It happened to me.

L-R; Consul-General, Kingdom of Netherlands, Mr. Michel Deelen; Lagos State Deputy Governor, Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat; Managing Director, Friesland Campina WAMCO Nigeria Plc, Mr. Ben Langat and Lagos State Commissioner For Finance, Dr. Rabiu Olowo at the 150th anniversary celebration of Royal Friesland Campina, on Wednesday at Ogba, Ikeja, Lagos.

Lagos Targets 50% Increase in Food Production By 2025.

Commits to food security.

Determined to achieve food security in Lagos, the State Government has restated its commitment to increasing food production by 50% over the next four years, thereby creating new opportunities to feed itself and other States in Nigeria, as well as stimulating economic growth and prosperity through agriculture.

The Lagos State Deputy Governor, Dr. Kadri Obafemi Hamzat, who disclosed this today at an event organised to mark the 150th Cooperative Anniversary of Friesland Campina, added that the present administration’s effort will boost economic growth and prosperity in the agriculture sector.

Referring to the recent launch of the Agriculture Value Chains Enterprise Activation Programme, Hamzat said the launch is a clear reference to the expansion of government’s vision, which is driven by a “Farm to Table Model” and has so far empowered about 3,000 urban and rural farmers in key sectoral value chains in the process.

He said: “Under the leadership of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, Lagos State, as the commercial nerve centre of Nigeria, has further renewed the vigour and vision to increase food production by, at least, 50 per cent by Y2025, thereby creating new opportunities to feed itself and Nigeria, as well stimulating economic growth and prosperity through agriculture”.

Speaking further, the Deputy Governor hoped that even after the tenure of the present administration, this vision will be carried along into the future by other administrations with more farmer recruitments.

Hamzat stated that as Lagos State celebrates this anniversary with Friesland Campina, Nigerian investors and business communities must remember that the onus of building a great brand, such as Friesland Campina, is essential to safeguard economic, cultural and historical traditions to strengthen our unity.

While congratulating the company on the milestone, the Deputy Governor thanked them for having faith in the nation’s economy despite the trying and challenging environment.

He said: “We want to use this opportunity to thank you for having faith in our nation’s economy. You did not quit on us despite the trying and challenging environment, rather you have remained committed to the Nigerian economy”.
