Certificate controversy: My critics will remain in court – Buhari


Presidential candidate of the APC, Gen Buhari says those who are aggrieved about his certificate and the issues surrounding it should go to court and remain there. He said this while speaking with some journalists after members of the Peoples Democratic Movement, PDM came to show their solidarity in the forthcoming election. He said that INEC said it has received his document and that anyone who has a contrary view to this is free to head to the court


"Well, I am not surprised, this is Nigeria. If people are serious about this issue, they ought to have listened to the legal adviser of INEC. This is the first time INEC by law have got those documents and they say they have got them, so anybody who has any different view should go to court, I think they have gone to court, so let them remain there,” he said.

Recall that an Abuja based lawyer, Mr. Chukwunweike Okafor, on Monday January 26th filed a case against Gen Buhari before the Federal High court in Abuja asking the court to disqualify him over the controversies surrounding his academic certificate.




90 Year Old Woman Reportedly Donates Her N1m Life Savings To Buhari's Campaign - Pic

Meet this 90-year-old woman named Hajia Fadimatu Mai Talle Tara who reportedly waited 9 hours for the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Maj.-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari to come to Birnin Kebbi, capital of Kebbi State, for his rally and donated 1 million Naira, her life savings for his campaign.



Buhari was so moved by her kind gesture that he shed tears, according to Babangida Ruma, a key member of late President Umar Musa Yar’adua K34 group.



Mr. Buhari who was in Kebbi last week initially refused to accept the old woman’s donation out of sympathy, but she compelled him to accept it.

What An Excellent CV Looks Like And Know The Reasons Why!

There is no shortage of resources online that help you how to write a perfect resume. First there is no perfect resume sample or format so don’t waste your energies in copying a sample resume available online. It has be relevant and to make it relevant it has to be designed according to the job applied.



So I cannot tell you how you can write an excellent resume for the specific job you are applying. But I can show you what an excellent resume really looks like. So cut the chase and here is a sample resume with the points highlighted. Why each and every point is important and is explained later.







0 – Get the basics right!



Get the formatting correct. No headers or footers. That white space is your total real estate to prove yourself. Don’t waste it.

Get punctuation correct and be very careful not to make spelling mistakes. Imagine you are wearing fancy new white suit and have red ink stains on it. Yikes!

No images. Unless you are going for modeling.

No fancy colored infestation. Make it all black.

Divide each section with sleek margin/border/line.

Justified! Make descriptions justified!

Most importantly! DON’T USE PRONOUNS! Can’t really emphasize it more.

1 – Single > Double



If you have more than one contact numbers and emails, choose one for your resume and job hunt and mention just that one. That way it is not confusing the hunter and also you know which cell phone never to turn off.



Select that cell phone which is available with you and will stay with you even if you switch jobs i.e. your personal contact number.



Same applies for email address give the one that is your personal. You don’t have to show which company you are working for by giving your official email address. Also make sure that most of your social accounts are based on same email address so that if employer search for you e.g. on linkedin or facebook then he can find your profile easily. You can maintain formal accounts on social websites and have usual account separate where you like to be free.



2 – Include link to online profile/resume



Time has changed and job hunting process has shifted significantly. Now a days people rely on online profiles like on linkedin.com where they can have access to almost all the information they need. The more employer reads about you, more chances you have to get recruited. It not only make recruiters work less tiring but also better as almost everyone can access these websites from anywhere instead of reviewing your resume on paper alone.



3 – What you have > What you want



Are you still using objective statements on your resume? Are you living in 80s? Drop it already!



Put yourself in the shoes of employer and ask yourself if you are really interested in knowing what you want to be. Trust me no one cares or even have time to read about what you want in your life. Each and every employer is interested in one thing and one thing only how can you be good for him/her in today’s date!



Have a look at the sample resume above. Instead of “Pursuing top level position in blah blah industry” tell what you are doing these days. Make a summary of task you are skilled up to this day and then instead of explaining each and every capability just include them in points so that recruiters can go over them really quickly. Everyone knows what inventory management is you don’t need to explain that.



And don’t forget to make your executive summary justified. It only takes one extra click but make your resume much more balanced and pleasing to read instead of everything falling to the left.



4 – Use keywords as your capabilities



You are living in digital age and 99% of the time you have to send your resume in digital form like pdf or word file at recruiter’s email address. Almost all the recruiters put your file in a database and whenever they are searching for candidates they run a query on that database and it pulls the resumes or CVs that has certain keywords like project management, accountant, analyst etc.



That has made the lives of employees simpler too. Instead of giving long details of your capabilities just mention them in the form of keywords. That helps recruiters skim easily and also increases your chances to get your resume picked by the database engine.



5 – Description of organization you worked for



If the company is local to employer then probably even the name will suffice but adding a line or two long description of each of the organization you worked for will save the employer some search to understand what it is about and how you fit there. If you don’t know what to write then visit about us section of your employer’s website and copy something relevant from there. Again! It shouldn’t be too long and must be justified instead of left aligned.



Bonus: If you have worked for more than one organization then have them listed with the latest employer first and the earliest employer last i.e. reverse chronological order. That helps recruiter where you are right now and how you progressed to this place over a period of time.



6 – What you do instead what you are supposed to do



Instead of putting whole job description its better if you write what you actually did or doing so that you can discuss the same if you are asked in the interview. Your experience section must not look like long list of JDs. Instead in few words wrap the whole thing and make it one sweet package that is precisely hinting on key responsibilities.



Your description itself should be action driven i.e. use action words like managed, supervised, designed etc instead of describing the whole thing like an essay. No! You have limited space and time to convince recruiter. Use it wisely.



7 – Quantified list of achievements



It looks superfluous if your are highlighting something as your achievement and not giving a yard stick to measure if it really is an achievement. Instead of saying “saved inventory costs by significant margin” give it a number and give a ballpark estimate of how much savings were in real like “saved inventory costs by 2 million”. Ideally it should be in the format like quantity followed by action or action followed by quantity. Numbers impress better than words.



8 – List education after experience



Experience exceeds education and same applies for resume. List education after experience unless you are fresh graduate with no experience at all. You don’t have to list the whole lot of education starting from your high school to graduation or post graduation. Only list the latest-highest-relevant education on the resume. You can list certifications as well only if they are relevant to the job you are applying for.



And if you are really good in academics like you scored GPA of 3.0 or more than list it for sure.



You don’t need to include what you studied in the course. These days the curriculum of every university is almost the same and just by looking at course content you cannot judge the candidate’s capabilities except few cases.



9 – Only relevant skills ONLY!



Don’t stuff your resume with all the skills you know. Just stick with the requirements of the job and only list that are relevant for the job applied.



10 – Don’t say “References if requested”



Everyone knows that you will provide references if recruiter or employer asks for it so no need to include it. Its unnecessary rather useless.

My Successor Must Be Younger Than Me —Jonathan

LAFIA—PRESIDENT Goodluck Jonathan yesterday set an age barrier for a possible successor if he wins re-election, saying that anyone above 57 years would not receive his support in 2019.



Speaking at a campaign rally in Lafias, Nasarawa State the president also disowned the governorship aspiration of his former minister of information, Mr. Labaran Maku, affirming he never supported his move from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.



The President also promised to give special attention to Nasarawa State on account of what he said is the proximity of the state to Abuja.



Giving his determination to support power transfer to the younger generation, the president said: “We want to encourage young people because the future belongs to them. We will not take leadership from you because you are the leaders of tomorrow. The director-general of my campaign organisation, Dr. Ahmadu Ali, has mentioned that my successor is going to be a younger person and that is what we will do.



‘’If you look at how we are going you will find out that what he said is true. Obasanjo was 70 when he was elected, the late President Yar’Adua was in his early 60s, I am about 60. So the PDP is grading down from Obsanjo to me.

8 Mistakes Ladies And Guys Make When They Meet Each Other Online.

In as much as mistakes are inevitable in everyday life, some mistakes can be avoided spontaneously or mistakes can be made perpetually , as it is common said a friend at hand is better than a brother abroad, it is common knowledge that you can't know someone completely but how you begin matters alot especially if you met online, here are some common mistakes made by both sexes in the cause of interaction





1. Acting too cold
Ladies acting too cold and uninterested during first chat kills the zeal and interest of well meaning guys towards them. Dear ladies, learn to be free with a guy & be lively, stop acting as if you just came out from a cold room,or your in a sober period or someone gonna die if you act lively



2. Replying with code words
Replying with one letter words like- k, gud, hw, wen, fyn, etc...this is a crime to human communication; no matter your gender & who u are chatting with, learn to stop it. undecided (later if you fail exams now you go begin blame one spirit wey no the exist)



3. Asking for picture too soon
- guys are fond of this bad habit of asking a lady they met online for her pics you be graphic designer? even on their first day of chat; please guys stop it! Get to know her first & see beyond her. Physical looks. Let me put it to you "THE LOVE OF BEAUTY iS THE ROLL OF DICE " implying when casting a dice you may get a very wrong number when you targeting a bigger number



4. Asking what he does for a living:
this is a big crime our ladies commit! embarassed Yes, its good to know what he does for a living but this usually send wrong signal to a guy with good intentions towards you, so avoid it and gradually get to know him & not just what he does & how much he earns.you need to look beyond his pocket to get the best out of a man.



5. Sex chat:
many guys today are so fond of this nonsense, guys please grow up! Even if u must sex chat with her, pls knw her first & make sure u two are into each other, stop being in a haste! Besides self what the fun in sex chat? You wan stain your boxers abi? Pity your boxers if you no pity yourself abeg



6. Begging for gifts
Begging for recharge card, gift, BIS, other favours- this is bad for anyone to do, please stop it! undecided why beg for an inch when you can have it all, ladies trade with caution, na from Waka person the see Race



7. Late responses:
nothing kills a guy's interest in a lady he met online like late responses & busy-forming attitude, makes the guy feel u don't take him serious or that u have plenty male admirers keeping u busy! If your really that busy why no contest for presidency so it will be obvious undecided stop it undecided



8. Being too rigid!
Never say never! That guy or lady u met online today & feel he's nobody or that she's ugly...or that he has nothing to offer for u may be your true partner in making. Many single ladies & guys have lost their true partners out of being too rigid and principled. Sometimes, play fool & see what nature/life has in store for you!

Gabrielle Union stuns in new pics, reveals why she asked for pre-nup


In an interview with YAHOO Style , actress Gabrielle Union, 41 opened up about her marriage to Dwyane Wade, and why she asked him to sign a pre-nup.

"For women in Hollywood, when they’re coupling, everything is about the brand. Everything is about latching on to a rising star, so you can kick your heels up. That’s never been my story, ever. I make sure to let people know all of the hard work that’s gone into my career. I want people to know the work that it took to get through UCLA, that I had student loans and worked. I was eating Top Ramen and lived well below my means. Now that it’s time to get married to a man who happens to play basketball and has done well for himself, I want to make it clear that I have in no way hitched my wagon to his star. I have my own wagon and star.”

Boko Haram: US Halts Israeli Aid To Nigeria

Blocks purchase of military helicopters from Israel



By Emeka Mamah, Deputy News Editor, with agency reports



LAGOS—TWENTY-Four hours after US Secretary of State, John Kerry met President Goodluck Jonathan and former Head of State, General Muhammadu Buhari, pledging his country’s determination to work with Nigeria and other countries to end activities of the Boko Haram terrorists, the Israeli media, yesterday, revealed that the US stopped Nigeria’s purchase of Chinook military helicopters from Israel to fight Boko Haram.



The sale/transfer of such aircraft required a review by the US, to determine its “consistency with US policy interests,” Obama administration officials told The Jerusalem Post.



It quoted White House Assistant Press Secretary and Director for Strategic Communications, Ned Price, as saying that reviews of such kind take place in the case of “any requests for one country to transfer US-origin defence items to another country.”

Nigeria’s largest arms purchase ever reported was from Israel in 2007, in a deal with Aeronautics Systems worth $260 million. That company is Israeli, however, not American.



A single Chinook costs roughly $40 million to produce.

Vanguard had reported the Nigerian military in the past as saying that the country also resorted to training its security personnel on terrorist encounters in Russia and China because of the refusal of the US administration to sell arms to the government following “unfounded allegations of human rights violations by our troops,” among others.



However, the reports quoted unnamed Nigerian officials as also saying that the US blocked the order “after the office of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had initially approved the purchase.”



Policy directives

US officials told The Jerusalem Post that such transfers must be consistent with a policy directive revised by President Barack Obama in January, which outlines the criteria for conventional weapons sales.



The policy requires US transfers, including Boeing aircraft, to take into account “the risk that significant change in the political or security situation of the recipient country could lead to inappropriate end-use” of the weapons.







While the Nigerian report suggests Abuja sought the purchase of Boeing CH-47 Chinook helicopters, Israel predominantly uses Sikorsky CH-53 aircraft for missions involving heavy-lift transport. Both Boeing and Sikorsky are American companies.



Israeli laws concerning the export of arms is less restrictive than those in the United States. Israel, however, is a member of the United Nations Register of Conventional Arms and, in 2009, reported to the body that Israel, in practice, refrains from transfers “where there is imminent risk that arms might be internally diverted, illegally proliferated and re-transferred, or fall into the hands of terrorists or entities and states that support or sponsor them.”



Sixteen nations operate the Chinook helicopter, none of which are in sub-Saharan Africa.

Nigerian officials were reported as saying that “we had even tried to procure arms from Russia but this was stalled because of the Ukrainian crisis, thus compelling us to turn to other nations like Israel. But even this has been frustrated by the US.”



They further said it was not just in the area of arms procurement that US has been most unhelpful, adding that contrary to its public stance that it was assisting in the rescue operations of the abducted Chibok secondary school girls, it has done nothing significant to help Nigeria in this regard.

Other intelligence sources also cited the fact that the US has refused to share intelligence with Nigerian security forces in a timely manner.



They said: “When we complained, they started sharing some intelligence, but days after such intelligence is of little value”.

Boko Haram gained notoriety around the world after its militants kidnapped 276 students of Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok in Borno State in April last year. The US sent military personnel to assist in finding the girls.



Amnesty connection

In August, Amnesty International said it had gathered video footage, images and testimonies that “implicates the Nigerian military in war crimes” which the Nigerian government vehemently denied.



US Secretary of State John Kerry said in Nigeria recently that the United States remains committed to helping the government combat Boko Haram.



“We are engaging with the Nigerian government at all levels to identify areas of counter-terrorism cooperation,” other state officials earlier said.

This was contrary to what the US ambassador to Nigeria James Entwistle told reporters last October while speaking on the refusal by his country to sell high calibre weapons to Nigeria. Entwistle told reporters that “the kind of question that we have to ask is, let’s say we give certain kinds of equipment to the Nigerian military and that is then used in a way that affects the human situation, if I approve that, I’m responsible for that. We take that responsibility very seriously.”

How A Youth Corper Escaped From Being Kidnapped In Abuja Yesterday

Make una help me thank God oo.. I'm a batch C youth corper posted to abuja but not yet serving oo, I was rejected last week by a govt office that wasted over 3weeks of my time due to come back next week talk before I was issued a rejection letter on friday.

All the offices & schools are either singing we already have enough corpers chorus or we don't take corpers. Entering jahi district with the last 210 naira I said to myself if this area fail to provide a PPA na swear I go swear for abuja NYSC.
