The World Bank has identified 3 ways in
which the 36 states of the federation and
Abuja can survive economic challenges
- They are: ensuring sustained reforms to
increase IGR’s, improving spending
efficiency, and strengthening debt
management and fiscal transparency
- Despite contracting for five consecutive
quarters since early 2016, however,
Nigeria’s growth projections are expected
to reach one per cent during the year
Three ways whereby the 36 states of the
federation and Abuja can survive economic
challenges, have been identified by the
World Bank, Premium Times reports.
The global bank made its observations and
assessment public in its new Nigeria Bi-
Annual Economic Update which was
released on Wednesday, November 22, in
Abuja.the bank identified the
3 solutions as ensuring sustained reforms
to increase internally-generated revenues,
improving spending efficiency, and
strengthening debt management and fiscal
transparency.

According to the World Bank, implementing
these 3 strategies would ensure sustainable
growth of the nations’ economy.
The report stated: “At present, states
remain under considerable fiscal stress,
with states requesting continuation of the
Budget Support Facility beyond the original
end date of May 2017.
“This level of fiscal deficits would lead to an
increase in total state debt stock to 5.4 per
cent of GDP and 200 per cent of revenue by
2020.
“In light of the continuing fiscal pressures,
there is a strong need to strengthen the
performance of the states through the full
and sustained implementation of reforms
to increase internally-generated revenue
and state spending efficiency, and
strengthen state debt management and
fiscal transparency.”
Nigeria’s economy recorded a 0.6 per cent
positive growth (year-on-year) in the
second quarter of 2017, after contracting
for five consecutive quarters since early
2016.
However, amidst sustained oil production
recovery, growth projections are expected
to reach one per cent during the year previously reported
that the global economic report by the
World Bank predicted that Nigeria would
get out of recession, and grow its gross
domestic product (GDP) by one percent in
2017.
In the report, the bank further stated that
the global economy will accelerate
moderately to 2.7 percent in 2017

Apostle Chibuzor Gift Chinyere: A Homeless Man Turned General Overseer
Once under-the-bridge tenant,
this pastor now empowers the poor [/
size]
From HENRY CHUKWURAH, Port Harcourt
Tuesday, October 5, 2010
Are you one of those about giving up on
life because of seemingly endless rough
times?
The story of Apostle Chibuzor Gift Chinyere,
General Overseer of Omega Power Ministry
Worldwide (OPM) is likely to provide the
needed tonic that will ginger you to call
the bluff of life’s challenges and succeed.
The clergyman’s life experience and
eventual journey to the top is also likely to
serve as a spinal transplant for those who
have lost the backbone of focus and
determination.
Incidentally, his church also holds out
hope for the less privileged including
prostitutes to acquire skills that will enable
them live decent lives.
Up till 2004, Apostle Chinyere whose
church rates as one of the largest in Rivers
State, lived in the valley of life. For years, he
lived under the bridge at the Ogudu area
of Ojota in Lagos. Later, he moved to
Diobu, generally regarded as Port
Harcourt’s Ajegunle.
Within that same period, he eked out living
from selling GSM re-change cards.
By dint of divine touch and handwork,
Apostle Chinyere now shepherds
hundreds of thousands of faithfuls and
has left no avenue unexplored to give
hope to the hopeless.
In recent years, his church has spread the
gospel of hope to the shanties of Port
Harcourt, Prison yards and brothels within
and outside the Rivers State capital.
The Christian organization runs free
computer programmes for less privileged
slum dwellers, prison inmates and
prostitutes. This is aside the free schools
and other skill acquisition schemes of the
church for its members and non-members
alike.
Speaking recently at the graduation of
about 120 persons who went through its
five-month Diploma Course in computer
and Information Technology organized for
residents of Bundu Waterfront, one of the
Port Harcourt slums, the clergyman said
his heart goes to the poor because he was
one of them.
“I want to touch the lives of the less
privileged. I was living under the bridge,
an ordinary re-charge card seller. I have
real feelings for the less privileged and
that is why I want to empower them.
“Since God did it for me, I believe he would
make some others very great. We are
doing what we do for those who cannot
pay back”.
Apostle Chinyere told Daily Sun that the
church chose Bundu Waterside because it
is populated by the less privileged.
“There is high level poverty there. I will
not do it in GRA because people in GRA
have money to go to school. “Go there
(Bundu) and see how people are living.
People live near waterside, inside
shanties. I feel for them, having
remembered how I was some years ago,
and wish to give them the best of
computer education.
“For sustainability of the programme, we
have given many of them employment. We
have so many Chief Executives in the
church and we have referred so many of
the beneficiaries of the programme to
places to work. So, as we speak with these
employers, they employ them”.
The OPM General Overseer explained that
the various empowerment programmes of
the church are open to members and non-
members of the church. He advised the
youth within and around the state to avail
themselves of the programme and become
gainfully employed.
He assured that although the various
programmes gulp several millions of Naira,
the church would not be deterred.
“The challenges are so much because the
project runs into millions of Naira but we
won’t stop.
“We have even gone ahead to offer 26
scholarships in Abia State. A few days ago,
the church offered another 36
scholarships, one recipient from each of
the 36 States of the Federation to study to
any level in the university”.
He frowned at the high school fees being
charged by many educational institutions
owned by religious organizations in the
country and accused the church of
contributing far below expectation to
national development .
“A lot of churches have not done enough.
If you look around, you will find some
churches that build schools and their fees
are unbelievably too high for the poor.
“That is why OPM started building schools.
We give them school uniforms, free books
and they don’t pay school fees. They just
come to school and learn”.

16 years old commit suicide over low grade
Mercy Olamide Afolaranmi, a student of Microbiology at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, has committed suicide.
According to the school’s Chief Security Officer, Babatunde Oyatokun, Miss Afolaranmi, poisoned herself. Students and a neighbour close to the deceased also said she killed herself due to poor grade.
“We got a call that one of our students took poison,” Mr. Oyatokun said. “We got to hospital to realise that she mixed rat poison. She gave us the contact of her parents but before they arrived, she already gave up due to the effect of the poison she took.”
A neighbour, Bimpe Oni, in an interview with PREMIUM TIMES, said Miss Afolaranmi, who lived off-campus at Sabo area of Ile-Ife, died on Thursday, after she took “rat poison mixed with battery extract.”
Mrs. Oni said the late student committed suicide because of “emotional pressure.” A student, Aisha, who was Miss Afolaranmi’s colleague in the Faculty of Science, said the deceased had ‘E’ in CHM101 (Chemistry for first year students), a reportedly dreaded course for year one students in the science and technology related faculties.
“Mercy often isolated herself in class and looked depressed,” said Aisha. “She told me she had ‘E’ in CHM101 and has been going around unhappy before this incident.” Another student in the Faculty of Student, Opeyemi, said “she took poison because of result.”
The school’s Dean of Students’ Affairs, Isiaka Aransi, also confirmed the news. “Although the reason and cause of her death is yet to be known, the division is aware of the death of Mercy,” she said.
Before her death, on October 10, she posted on Facebook that: “Above all other things, I just wanna see God, see what He looks like, speak with Him face to face. I don’t wanna miss heaven. LORD HELP ME.”

It was announced that about 162 of such retired police officers and 57 Next of Kin will be paid their benefits in the first phase which kicks off this month.
The police officers were granted presidential pardon in 2000.

“The dismissal of those officers was commuted to retirement in the year 2000 through a Presidential Amnesty granted on 29th May, 2000 by the Administration of the then President, Olusegun Obasanjo.
“A verification exercise was conducted for the pardoned officers by the defunct Police Pension Office and recently PTAD on one hand and the Police Service Commission on the other

4 Kinds Of Friends That Are Hindering Your Success
4 Kinds of Friends That Are Hindering Your
Success
By Johnspeak Uwangue (Motivational
Speaker, Talent Manager and Coach)
If success is what you seek in life;
business, career, Job, Marriage,
relationship etcetera, then you must learn
to avoid these four kinds of friends.
Friends are supposed to help us grow,
discover those unique abilities and
strength we never knew we had. But if
you always find yourself slowing down in
the pursuit of your vision, dreams or ideas,
you need to check the friends you keep.
It's easier to always blame our strategies
and enemies for our failures but
oftentimes, our principles may be right but
our so called friends may be the ones
working against our success directly or
indirectly.
This week, I will be sharing with you just
four kinds of friends out of many that are
hindering your success.
- The Parasitic
Parasitic friends are those who are always
taking from you and not giving back in
return. The most annoying part of this
kind of friends is that they will spend your
money or use your stuff and keep theirs.
This kind of friends always pretend not to
have meanwhile, they may even have more
than you. One easy way to know this kind
is that when you refuse or doesn't have to
give them, they automatically turn you to a
bad person. Parasitic friends will never let
you go until they have sucked you dry. In
the pursuit of your vision, dreams or ideas,
you will have to let go of them otherwise,
they may end up taking the little resources
that you should have used to take your
vision, ideas, talents and dreams forward.
- The Pharisees and The Saducees
The P&S friends are those friends who
always feel that they know more than you.
They will always point out a reason or two
why you may not succeed sometimes with
proofs and their personal experiences to
back it. These friends are too far to see
and too sad to see. I used to have friends
like this who always told me to abandon
my vision and ideas and follow the herd.
They always told me that dreams don't
come through in this part of the world.
They don't care about your vision, and
can't fathom why a little boy or girl like
you could have such a great vision.
- The Mockers and Complainers
Being mocked can have psychological
effects on people especially if they are your
friends. It's easier to turn deaf to the
mockeries of people who are outside your
friendship zone. Complaining weakens
great talents. When you hangout with
Complainers, in a short time, you may find
yourself complaining too instead of
strategizing on how to move forward.
Please understand that we need critics in
order to be able to perfect our products
and services, but when those critics are
our friends and are doing it out of hatred
then, there is a problem.
- The Unsupportive
Unsupportive friends are those who never
complain or mock you but will never
support your dreams and vision. In the
pursuit of our dreams, we need all the
supports that we can get. Unsupportive
friends will leave you to struggle alone
without a little support and are always the
first to complain that you've abandoned
them when you start reaping the fruits of
your labours.
Whether we want to or not, we all need
friends. Friends who are not parasitic,
Pharisees and Saducees, Unsupportive,
Mockers and Complainers, but friends who
will stand by us through the thick and thin
until we start reaping the fruits of our
labours.

4 Important Relationship Rules You Must Follow - Romance
No relationship comes with an instruction manual (although your parents are your natural instruction manual) and that is why most people are having it wrong. Being in a relationship is more than just about love (emotions) because emotions will definitely change under harsh conditions. Loving something who you don't know anything about or is not related to you in any way is a very big step that should be taken seriously.
So sit back and let your favorite health blogger dish some rules you should think about when in a relationship.
Now, One rule you matured men and women, and teenage boys and girls break in relationships is that no matter the quarrel, the fight, the war, you should never ever suggest a breakup (that is when you still see a future with him/her and not when you are being pounded to death)...
Here are 4 important relationships rules you must follow
1. Understanding Boundaries
Face it no matter how you much love her and she loves you, both of you will always have boundaries. How many of you have every shaved your girlfriend's pubic hair? None huh! you see that's the example of a boundary. There are might be more and that depends on you. The job of both parties is to understand each other's boundaries and respect it, also give time for both boundaries to be open up. The fewer the boundaries the higher the chance the relationship would survive.
2. Understanding Emotions
Relationships are romantic, sweet and whatever (meaning there is a lot of emotions involved) now for all those men who they don't care about all that female drama. Sorry, you have to and so goes for women. Understanding his/her emotions doesn't mean playing love and romance and buying gifts or surprising her sometimes or even being the best in bed.
Copyright: Paul Samuel FitnessDoctor ( realfitbody.com)
It is about studying the person you are dealing with (it takes time but only those who are really in a relationship for commitment could give it a try), their reactions, behavior and trying to improve on their bad sides like a friend and a lover.
Don't believe that stuff that women say about you trying to change who they are.
3. Understand Your Position in the Relationship
Knowing your position and understanding it is two different things.
Ladies are meant to be submissive or equal depending on the relationship. Men are meant to be alpha, equal or submissive depending on the relationship, now knowing and understanding your position in a relationship would help lead to a better relationship.
Now Imagine a relationship which the lady is meant to be submissive and when they have a quarrel she hisses and walks out making the man feel lesser. So it is important to know your position in every relationship to prevent simple mistakes.
Note: Not in all relationships the lady is equal to the man.
4. Know A Lot About Your Partner
Information is power and in relationships, it is very important to avoid unexpected situations. When I say you should know a lot about your partner, I don't mean hunting down his exes, I mean going farther than just the stuff you guys talk about on dates and learning more about your partner.
This knowledge will give you an edge in your relationship helping you understand better who you are dealing with and the best way to deal with such a person.
So there you have it. Remember to choose wisely, even the best men have flaws.
So sit back and let your favorite health blogger dish some rules you should think about when in a relationship.
Now, One rule you matured men and women, and teenage boys and girls break in relationships is that no matter the quarrel, the fight, the war, you should never ever suggest a breakup (that is when you still see a future with him/her and not when you are being pounded to death)...

The job of both parties is to understand each other's boundaries and respect it, also give time for both boundaries to be open up. The fewer the boundaries the higher the chance the relationship would survive.
2. Understanding Emotions
Relationships are romantic, sweet and whatever (meaning there is a lot of emotions involved) now for all those men who they don't care about all that female drama. Sorry, you have to and so goes for women. Understanding his/her emotions doesn't mean playing love and romance and buying gifts or surprising her sometimes or even being the best in bed.

It is about studying the person you are dealing with (it takes time but only those who are really in a relationship for commitment could give it a try), their reactions, behavior and trying to improve on their bad sides like a friend and a lover.
Don't believe that stuff that women say about you trying to change who they are.
3. Understand Your Position in the Relationship
Knowing your position and understanding it is two different things.
Ladies are meant to be submissive or equal depending on the relationship. Men are meant to be alpha, equal or submissive depending on the relationship, now knowing and understanding your position in a relationship would help lead to a better relationship.
Now Imagine a relationship which the lady is meant to be submissive and when they have a quarrel she hisses and walks out making the man feel lesser. So it is important to know your position in every relationship to prevent simple mistakes.
Note: Not in all relationships the lady is equal to the man.
4. Know A Lot About Your Partner
Information is power and in relationships, it is very important to avoid unexpected situations. When I say you should know a lot about your partner, I don't mean hunting down his exes, I mean going farther than just the stuff you guys talk about on dates and learning more about your partner.
This knowledge will give you an edge in your relationship helping you understand better who you are dealing with and the best way to deal with such a person.
So there you have it. Remember to choose wisely, even the best men have flaws.

7 Reasons Why Most Nigerian Ladies Lose Shape After Marriage
Hello Guys it's your favorite health blogger, Paul Samuel FitnessDoctor
I noticed many Nigerian ladies, as well as their African counterpart, add more weight (which they find hard to lose) after marriage. I did my research and concluded that these reasons might be the cause.
You might want to note down one or two points even though if you are a man.
1. Child Bearing:
One of the reasons and the most likely reason why so many Nigerian ladies get out of shape after marriage is due to childbearing.
By the time they start giving birth to children and even during pregnancy, the body secretes hormones that causes weight gain in addition to the incredible amount of food they consume during pregnancy. This fat is stored in their bodies and can be very difficult to lose.
2. Refusal to Lose that After Baby weight:
Another reason is that most Nigerian ladies do not mind to exercise to lose the weight they gained during pregnancy, they just live with it, even after the second and third child.
They accept that they have become old mama's and decide to leave the attractive bodies to the little girls. Big mistake.
3. Too Much Food:
Many of these Nigerians ladies do not have a diet plan that helps them keep their shape after childbirth instead they feed off excess starch foods. (I don't even have one either, I am on team Calorie Moderation all the way)

Most of them don't even know that when taking food you have to account for the nutrients and calories, and more could mean you are eating excess which gets stored as fat.
Some prefer to eat this or that because it is sweet, aromatic and they don't take into account the amount of calories they are consuming.
4. Lack of Exercise:
Most Nigerian ladies have never seen the four walls of a gym. I tend to focus more on indoor exercises to make it easier for my readers, but that hasn't still kickstarted the fitness spirit in most people.
Many ladies after marriage will resign from their fitness lifestyle to focus either on their marriage or on raising kids. They wouldn't want to walk either long or short distance, they will prefer to drive around in cars and many wouldn't want to run or do some cardio exercise to lose weight. These are some of the reasons some of them add weight beyond expectation.
5. Stress:
Dealing with stress as a single person is not easy and when marital bruhaha gets mixed up with all that, it becomes a lot more complicated.
Stress eating (which I have been through), is the easiest remedy for stress for most people and it is also the easiest way to an incredible amount of weight that would be hard to lose.
6. Late Night Food:
Late night meals store up calories in your body and since most women love to skip the early morning exercise, those calories go on to get stored as fat.
7. Birth Control Pills :
Yes, birth control pills can make you gain weight.
Staying in shape doesn't really take much for those who are determined to keep their hourglass shape and you wouldn't have to give up your favorite meals just to keep that shape (remember I said that I only follow food moderation).
Through family planning and the right exercises, you should be able to keep your shape and still look a lot younger than you could dream of

Patience Jonathan Spotted At A Wedding Recently Looking Beautiful - Politics
Former First Lady Patience Jonathan has been in the news recently for many reasons, especially her issues with the EFCC. Other than that however, ex President Jonathan's wife has been very quiet and limited public appearances.
But recently, the outspoken 'Mama Peace' who turns 60 on the 25th of this month was spotted at the wedding of her friend's son in Abuja.
Prior to now, Mama Peace has come under fire many times for her 'interesting' sense of style but for the wedding in question she brought her A-game. Dressed in a green embroided green blouse adorned with beautiful stones and a complimenting green and pink wrapper, her out fit was well coordinated and thought out.
She finished off the look with a green headtie, and simple but beautiful white gold accessories. This is by far one of the best looks we've seen on the former first lady.

Group condemns El-Rufai’s second term endorsement
The Kaduna Restoration Group (KRG) has condemned Governor El-Rufai's second term endorsement
- KRG said it does not see any reason El-Rufai will win the upcoming state governorship election
- The group, however, said it is aware that the governor is desperate to remain in power after 2019
The Kaduna Restoration Group has accused Nasir el-Rufai, the Kaduna state governor, of orchestrating his second term endorsement by a section of the state chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
NAIJ.comgathered this in a statement jointly signed by Ahmed Tijjani Ramalan and Yusuf Dankofa, chairman and secretary of the group respectively.
The statement read:''We are also aware of the desperation of the governor and his cronies, who have clearly seen that despite their hollow propaganda to project their so called candidate as the best thing to have happened to Kaduna state in recent times, have realised that the masses of Kaduna state and other teeming stakeholders, have come to understand that the governor is simply unsellable and unelectable in 2019.

How Toyo Baby of Jenifa's Diary Lost Her Virginity, Sexually Abused by Pastor - Actress Reveals in New Book
How Toyo Baby of Jenifa's Diary Lost Her Virginity, Sexually Abused by Pastor - Actress Reveals in New Book
A 150 pages
new book titled "REBIRTH" by Juliana Olayode a.k.a Toyo baby of popular
television series, Jenifa's Diary, detailed revelations about the good,
bad and ugly parts of her life, career and much more.
Here is a summary of the book in 10 points;
1. She lost her virginity at 17 to her married music teacher
Juliana gave detailed narration of how she lost her virginity to
her married music teacher at 17, how he brainwashed her into believing
he would marry her.
She wrote: "The day finally came. He wanted to move the date
because he was expecting some money that he wanted to use to pay for a
good hotel, but moving it would mean my mum back from church. So, he
settled for a cheap hotel. I still remember the smell of cigarette that
filled the room. I hated the smell of alcohol and cigarette; I still do.
We had to wait at the reception for the room to be cleaned and aired.
There is No Messiah Coming to Save Nigeria
One of the supporters of President Muhammadu Buhari, has taken to his
Facebook page to express his worries about the state of affairs in
Nigeria as Buhari's health slows the country down.
One thing that 2015 should teach us (or has taught me) is that no
messiah is coming to save Nigeria. Until we stregnthen our institutions
and allow them stand firm irrespective of political expediency, Nigeria
will keep going through flip-flops.
A major issue is the absence of the President for 103 consecutive
days. I am like the Premier League ended and started again but our
President is not back. We can't even get active participation at
international events because Acting President won't pass a night out. I
really wish Buhari well having been the only one I have voted for as
President but what's going on now is NOT right in any frame.
