Nature.
I think you should explore the nature by going to your church or mosque 😊 someone must know someone () and connects you to a U.S s. Or post to your Facebook alumni page and get connected to someone in America.

More people have talked about Pay4Me app but i have not used it before . My best pick is still finding a reliable in America. 👍

I have used the Pay4Me app to make the payment and it worked. Thank you so much for your reply 🙏

Please how can someone who doesn't have someone in America pay the SEVIS fee? I was told at the bank that they cannot do it through Western Union

People talk about places they can get what their country couldn't give them - money!

Who culture help?

It seems Hope Uzodinma wants to spend 8 years constructing roads. LGA needs to start getting allocations directly from the FG so they can fix rural roads and schools in their communities. The governor shouldn't have any business with rural roads and community schools.

Most of you formulate opinions and them off as facts. You're simply conjecturing on the premise of one man's . Have you heard from Baal herself? You need to hear from Baal to be able to draw a more accurate analogy.

Go and bring the of Baal and share with us. Yeye dey smell!

Onitsha have the highest number of multistorey buildings in Nigeria, Lagos top in skyscrapers

You no dey laugh yourself as you dey type this nonsense?

bnsie:
Interestingly enough they claimed the youths are the future Leader, yet not regards for them

The biggest problem of Nigeria is lack of unity. Politicians benefit when they keep the country divided using their paid agents. Afterwards, they turn around to preach for unity to pretend as if they are trying to unite the country. The day this country becomes united on one front, politicians will be the biggest casualties.

Too late,he has reached a deal with APC

Wrong move - APC won't win this election.

Why APC (ACN) ever won guber election in Edo was because of Adams Oshiomhole. How can you not love that man?

MySolace:

Uncle I knw the clip... Its not news, A very old clip. possibly over 20yrs sef. They were stunch rivals, and ubah has also made ill remarks about him too.

Wot am raying remains,
Banks dont giv u money because u want money.
Banks knw how to get back their money wen one defaults.

Rivalry in what term? Is Maduka a politician or was Ubah an auto dealer? Listen, Coscharis said that what brought them together was that bank loan he helped Ubah stand surety for. If any rich man ever made legit money in Nigeria, that should be Coscharis. As for Ubah, that guy dealt with this country. In fact, from AMCON to subsidy scam, his name is everywhere. May God judge everyone for their deeds.

Simon Ekpa boys are still on rampage! Why are they killing people's husbands, brothers, uncles and fathers?

Typing:
Alex Otti the Governor of Abia is the shortest man in Nigeria

It's not about height but impact though.
Dude is really doing a good job in his state; that's what he's elected to do as leader isn't a height-measuring competition.

On the other hand, Buhari is the tallest politician in Nigeria but by far the dumbest and the most incompetent.

I think Lagos should be the only city that can outnumber Onitsha in number of multistorey buildings in Nigeria. Onitsha people dey try well. It's as if everyone is competing to build their own multistorey building.

I have watched the testimonies of Evangelist Ebuka Obi pray for a woman in her late 50s, kneeling down, crying and telling God to give her twins. Years later, the woman came to testify with her twin boys.

I attended Zion Ministry the day someone testified about how Evangelist Ebuka Obi prayed for him and told him that even though he has been without a child for years after marriage that he will come back and testify with a male child. The man came back and testified with a male child.

On each occasion, they would share the video of what happened on the day of prayers and you see the outcomes (the testimonies)

Only a fool says there's no God.

SatoshiX:
You will not see Obi and his bandwagons to condemn this because they're same of the same. PDP = LP

I am a proud Peter Obi er and I condemn this in the strongest possible . APC people should just it that they have nothing to offer this country and stop participating in every presidential election just to make the country worse than they made it.

Philip is not being reasonable. He should stop fighting Obaseki, allow the governorship go to another senatorial zone and reach a deal with the PDP candidate to you after his tenure. We know how long Buhari fought to be a president and later won the seat.

What are we supposed to do with this piece of information?

With perennial insecurity and youth restiveness in the south-east which has seen many youths the struggle for secession, there seems to be a deliberate policy by governors of the region to empower youths with skills and take them off the streets.

From Anambra, Imo, Enugu and Abia States, the governors have respectively unfolded youth empowerment initiatives as well as programmes to operators of micro, small and medium scale enterprises (MSMEs) in the regionIn Anambra State, the Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, few days ago launched what he called the 1youth2skills programme.The programme which is in its second phase, witnessed about 8,620 participants that qualified for the second batch. It is expected to serve as a bridge to the future for youths to move away from joblessness as his istration prioritises human capital development.


“Today, we are beginning phase two of that big journey to ensure that our youths are empowered on a sustainable basis, to teach them how to fish and eliminate hunger. Phase one of the programme had 5,000 youths, trained in a peculiar way of ‘igba boy,’ mentorship, etc.“Most of them have been empowered, and several of them are now employers of labour. In this second batch, 183,000 applications were received, and over 8,000 people were selected because of limited spaces,” he added.

Explaining how the scheme works, the Commissioner for Youth Development, Mr. Patrick Aghamba, said the training has various phases and would last for eight months, adding that the trainees would be entitled to monthly stipends from the government within the pendency of the training, while also being empowered with start-up capital after the training.


He said: “The age range of the trainees is from 18 to 45 years. It does not matter if you are from Anambra or not, so long as you reside here in Anambra.“The idea is that even if you’re not from Anambra but you reside here, if we take you out of the street and empower you with skills, the tendency is that you will not be a problem to society, and the rate of crime in the state will reduce.

“We want to use this to reduce the crime rate in the state. The training will commence soon. It is called the One Youth Two Skills programme.“Phase A is for courses that will take four months and phase B is for courses that will take six months. It is a vocational training and the last phase is entrepreneurship, which is for one month. We will also use one month to do capturing. So the project timeline is eight months.”Speaking on some of the skills that would be learnt, Aghamba listed; furniture, metal fabrication, aluminum fabrication, CCTV installation, confectionary, leather works as part of the skills.


The coordinator of Anambra Keke Drivers Union, Osita Obi, while commenting on the initiative said: “The programme is a wonderful one. It will help to empower our youths and keep them busy. The government cannot give white-collar jobs to everyone, but the best they can do is to train people and give them the enabling environment to thrive.

“For me, I do not think that this initiative can solve crime, but it can contribute a little quota. Every society has deviants, and such deviants, whether there is a job or not, still engage in crime. But on the whole, what the governor is doing is commendable and should be emulated by all.”


In Imo State, the government recently introduced the One Kindred One Business Initiative (OKOBI), that encourages each kindred in the State to set up businesses whereby the government helps them them as cooperatives. Currently, there are more than 150 OKOBI ed in Imo State.Imo State Commissioner of Information, Mr. Declan Emelumba, told THISDAY that the idea of the OKOBI, was to encourage each kindred in the State to come up with an entrepreneurial idea that the government can facilitate for them.

“The government would partner with them to make sure there is something established in every kindred that is economically viable that would create jobs and enhance the wellbeing of the people within the rural areas.


“The governor has just directed that every kindred should key into it and the government is working with the local governments and kindred to ensure that the objective is realised. In the next one month, the initiative would fully take off. Right now the kindreds are organising themselves to come up with what they have a comparative advantage on. The kindreds have to make a commitment and the government in turn would provide counterpart funding to drive the initiative,” he added.

For Enugu State, Governor Peter Mbah, announced a partnership between the state government and the Small and Medium Enterprises Development Agency of Nigeria, aimed at boosting Macro, Small and Medium Enterprises in the state with a N1 billion matching fund.Mbah, had disclosed that the fund would empower small and medium-sized enterprises in Enugu State and pave the way for their growth and success. The initiative would introduce Conditional Cash Grants for 5,000 SMEs.


Mbah has always reiterated his commitment towards nurturing a thriving SME ecosystem to foster the economic growth objectives in the state.Since assuming office, the governor has continued to SMSs, providing them with crucial financial needed to thrive and boost their businesses.Few days ago, Mbah flagged off the distribution of inputs and grants worth over N4.6 billion to farmers, communities, and IT startups in the state as part of his commitment towards Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) development in the state.


Performing the flag-off, the governor had said it was important to “nurture small-scale entrepreneurs for sustainable growth through the provision of the key enablers since they remain the lifeblood of economic development.”

The intervention included N400,000 disbursement to 187 beneficiaries, N7.5m each to 10 tech startups, operational grant for solar equipment to 256 beneficiaries, laptop computers and POS terminals to 269 beneficiaries and the disbursement of N60,000 to over 16,000 beneficiaries, mostly comprising owners of nano-enterprises on a ratio of 80:20 in favour of women.


In 2023, the Enugu SME centre had introduced the Transforming Nigerian Youths Program in partnership with Enterprise Development Center- Pan African University, MasterCard Foundation and Capitis Global Ventures Ltd. The program was intended to boost entrepreneurial skills among Enugu’s youth, especially those aged 18-35, focusing on women-led microenterprises.

In his reaction, Executive Director at Leadership, Entrepreneurship and Advocacy Network, Ephraim Okenwa said that the Enugu governor understands that most businesses that power the state’s economy are SMSs.


“That is why he is investing massively in that sector through the SMS centre, building the needed collaborations,” he said. “When you talk about productivity for SMSs, you talk about land, labour capital and entrepreneur,”. “Finance and building capacity remain a major challenge for SMS but the state government has been deliberate in tackling these challenges,” he added.

In Abia State, Governor Alex Otti, on assumption of office made it plain that he wants Abia youths to be equipped with the needed skills that would make them self-sustaining instead of roaming about in search of white-collar jobs,


So far, he has put in place programmes for youths to be trained in farming, digital economy as well as creating the enabling environment for small-scale and nano-businesses to flourish.

Last month, 300 youths completed their training in modern farming techniques at the CSS Global Integrated Farms in Nasarawa State. On return to Abia, Otti had assured them that government “will do everything possible to you to set up”. He said that they would go into food production without delay.


Otti, also has taken a bold step to promote economic growth in the rural areas with a disbursement of N1 billion to 10,000 persons engaged in productive nano, micro and small businesses.

The governor said 70 per cent of the first batch of beneficiaries comprise “women and young people who have shown great industry by doing so much with very little resources.”

The interest-free loans are disbursed to beneficiaries under the Abia State Cooperative Scheme targeting rural and urban dwellers drawn from across the 184 political wards in the state.


On digital skills for youths, Otti expressed his commitment to promoting STEM education, science, technology, innovation, entrepreneurship, and job opportunities in the state. He wants Abia youths to be equipped with the knowledge, expertise, and practical skills in various core and advanced digital skills.

Some experts have applauded the move as a laudable one by the governors, as insecurity in most states in the region had been linked to idleness by youths.

Mr. Chris Asor, a leading member of the civil society groups in Anambra and coordinator of Anambra State Civil Society Network (ANSCONET) said: “We think there should be a monitoring mechanism because many of the people who will get these funds or training are targeting the empowerment money, and to them it is like bazaar or windfall. The government must properly monitor these initiatives and ensure that those who are imparted with the skills and who get empowered are truly those who need it.


“The progress of the business should be monitored, and some of them cannot for those monies, and the good idea may be defeated if nothing is done. Skill acquisition is very good and when you look around you discover that those doing some skills are non-Nigerians.”

Escobar is busy destroying the economy of Nigeria while agbadorians are busy talking about Peter Obi! 😂

I am in Emene in Enugu. We enjoy 20 - 22 hours of power supply every day. We are on Band A and steady power has always been a tradition here because it's the core industrial area of Enugu.

Only foolish people follow and argue with Reno Omokri.

BATerians are unreasonable people. They would say or do anything to deny their own and justify why Escobar deserves to be president.

I'll definitely vote for her! What South Africa cannot give her, her country will!

For a decent private university in Nigeria, the school is relatively affordable.

I don't even see any big match here. All the matches are predictable! You may not know the scoreline, but you can easily predict the winners of each of the matches.

Paraman:
100millionGoal you and your brothers are in pains because Ndokwa rejected the south east... Igbos from the south east are now claiming to be Ndokwas

Ndokwa no b igbo

If you were really reasonable, you would know that you shouldn't get into issues that don't concern you.

I don't really understand the criteria APC uses for hiring BATerians. Seunmsg and his team need to review them to engage intelligent people.

helinues:


And yet their ers want to break themselves head online. Chai

Alex Otti was like, Gov Jide, it's time to work together to make this country great

This advice should go to Yarimo or whatever his name is. The way that boy posts negative comments about Alex Otti, you would think Alex impregnated his sister and dumped her.

PS: Sanwo-Olu is a likeable and perfect gentleman!

Ifeanyi Ubah will win APC guber ticket, but he cannot be governor. Coscharis has damaged his reputation and political value. In short, Ifeanyi Ubah should have checked the quality of governors Anambra has produced over the years and realized that he cannot fit in.

IMO, Osita Chidoka (although I don't know if it's the turn of his senatorial zone to produce the next governor) should dump PDP and APGA so as to succeed Soludo when the professor has completed his 8 years in office. That man is a bright mind!

Godwin4444:
u lots will never see or say anything good

It’s like u are programmed to talk down on everything

This is the way NTA has programmed Nigerians to think when they were the major territorial TV station in the country. They claim to be building and uniting the nation for several years. Today, we know where that left this country.

If the citizens of a country of over 200 million people that has existed together for over 100 years without achieving meaningful progress don't question certain policies and moves, they are worse than dummies and zombies.

mrvitalis:
Any airport that has less than 100,000 engers yearly is what we want to waste money on now

Seems Nigerians and APC lead leadership don't know how bad our finances are

Sometimes I blame those giving us loans

Those people probably get their own shares from the loot. Nigeria is a sick country. I just checked online for the stats of busiest Nigerian airports in 2023, but that data isn't readily available.
