These three are Billionaires in dollars, but other than disparity in investment interests, race, religion etc., there is recently recorded difference between Aliko Dangote, Roman Abramovich, Donald Trump and Oprah Winfrey: Dangote is now richer than the other three put together. According to Forbes’ 2016 list of Earth’s Billionaires, you will add up the wealth of boastful US presidential hopeful, Donald Trump, Chelsea owner Abramovich and World richest black woman, Oprah Winfrey, and Dangote is still $300 million richer than the combination. Nigerian president Muhammadu Buhari’s economic policies have hurt Aliko Dangote’s economic escalation. He has lost about $300 million dollars as a result, but he still is worth $15.4 billion dollars to remain the richest person in black skin and the wealthiest African. Meanwhile, Donald Trump is valued at $4.5 Billion, Abramovich at $7.6 Billion and Oprah at $3.0 Billion. Dangote is also wealthier than all the Nigerians on the

All twins go their separate ways, especially if they are celebrity. Psquare have finally cracked up; but Davasol believe theirs is a divine connection that will also be endless. Ahead of the release of their long awaited debut music video, they granted interviews to select media, and naturally, the question of their twin connection in light of the high profile but infamous split of Psquare came up. They had stern responses to it. “I don't really follow them, outside the fact that there are twin, I don’t model in anywhere after them.. But they are great artist and wonderful duo. We are not just biological brothers or another set of twin, but we are destiny partners. Whenever I minister with my brother, even me I feel unusual ease with the anointing. So God wouldn’t have brought us this far to leave us. Therefore my dear friend as long as Christ tarries ‘Davasol dey kampe’... Nothing shelle’” A possible reason for this seemingly unavoidable phenomenon especially in th

The significance of art in the development of a child cannot be overemphasized. Art itself is a tool of expression. It is the child’s lingua franca and through art the child’s understanding and thoughts are made clearer. This is one of the beliefs of Cedar Court British International School, a conducive learning environment in Uyo, with a mission to provide a superior and excellent nursery care during a child’s most formative years. The school places a focus on the whole development of the child, aiming at creating a global mindset and equipping every pupil with essential skills for life-long learning. Since its inception in 2007, Cedar Court British International School, has steadily and consistently grown numerically to be one of the most reputable educational institutions in Nigeria, especially in the Niger Delta, with world-class schools in Rivers and Bayelsa states. Their passion in bringing International Education to the rural communities is commendable. This is seen in t

Buhari Facing Mutiny From Hard-line Supporters By Uduak Umo In not-too-far past, Muhamma du Buhari was a No-No of a presidential candidate. Right thinking Nigerians knew that this man could never be president over smart-headed Africans. However, to prosecute an agenda to take Nigeria by removing Goodluck Jonathan, APC politicians, backed by disgruntled former PDP leaders like Obasanjo, lined up behind the same Buhari and labored hard to patch-work an, otherwise, dowdy sore image of the ex-general. To do this, they needed to recruit thousands of hard-line supporters who would maximize the atmosphere of speech liberty made possible by a most humane administration - that of a mild Commander-in-Chief – to cast aspersions at the image of the incumbent President. They called Buhari ‘Saviour’, ‘Redeemer’, ‘Final hope’ and many other sobriquets reserved for God and in the end they succeeded to make Buhari so popular that Attahiru Jega, the nations Elections chief, could rig in th

Update : Dangote Suspends Tomato Paste Factory Because He Can't Find The Raw Crops   In December2015, I had a close meet-up with Sir Goodluck Etom Obi (KSC), Chairman of GateGold Nigeria at MMA, Lagos. I discussed with him the prospects of investing in Akwa Ibom State; and he shared with me his experiences in other places as one of the nation's top tin tomato manufacturers. As I expressed my concerns about President Buhari's Economic policies, the lack of them (pardon me) or maybe the lack of public awareness of them; he took the time to walk me through the President's activities in the development of the Economy at the grassroots, as he knew it. He shared the challenges facing the Federal Government's programme to intervene in several sub-sectors of our Agric Super-sector, citing one commodity for an example; the red tomato used in making the tomato paste. "Do you know that the tomato we plant in this country is not suitable for canning?" He p
