Nigeria now has nude posers! Yeah,unfortunately,we now do.This is something we used to think was "that rubbish white people do",now i guess things have changed. I want to talk about the latest one in town.Her name is Beverly Osu, and I had to ''Google'' her to find out who she is and what she is about. All I found is Vanity. Pointless, shallow, debasing, attention and fame seeking vanity. Not that I think seeking fame is wrong. Many great scientist and inventors sought fame which basically led to their achievements.But for Miss Beverly, I found no great W.A.E.C results or achievemment, no daring rescue, no great selfless act, no great invention or contribution to Nigeria. So why do we care about her naked body? Big Brother Africa. Yes. Remember that show? That annoying waste of my time and TV space? Well, not criticising lovers of the show, I just never liked that show. I watched like two episodes and totally lost interest. But we aren't here to talk about BBA. We are here to talk about Beverly Osu. We are here to talk about Nigerians. We are here to talk about the fact that we now seem to accept anything mordernization throws at us.Must we  start allowing the worst of our people dominate our popular culture? The likes of Maheeda, Afrocandy and now beverly osu should not set the pace of our acceptable behaviours and norms. The west lost in terms of culture, why must we follow suit? Not everything the west does is great. I believe if their fore fathers had forseen this kind of decay in their countries when they where designing them, they would have put up preventive measures. I think they just never imagined that full functioning, well fed and educated people could ever find a way to justify walking around nude! lol .So my question to us today is , why are we allowing this same decay today.

67 migrants are feared dead off Libya and the coastal town of Zuwara after more than 3,000 people attempted the crossing between Tuesday and Wednesday. The crew of the Swedish rescue vessel Poseidon discovered around 52 bodies in the hold of a wooden boat from which around 400 people were rescued some 30 miles north of Libya.


They were found close to the engine and are believed to have died from inhalation of engine fumes and asphyxia. Originally, rescuers counted 30 bodies but a spokesman for the Italian coastguard said the real death toll stands at 52.

In a separate incident, another 15 people are feared drowned after their boat capsized around five miles off the coastal town of Zuwara on Wednesday. A spokesman for the coastguard there said they had saved 20 people and recovered three bodies. The survivors, primarily from Nigeria and Ghana, told the coastguard they were traveling in a group of about 40 when their boat overturned in bad weather. They had only travelled some four hours after they left the shoreline.

The coastguard started the rescue at 4am and continued with the search into the afternoon but no more bodies were spotted. The tragedies came during an especially busy day in the waters outside Libya.The Italian coastguard said in a statement that around 3,000 people had been rescued in 10 different operations throughout Wednesday on the central Mediterranean route to Europe. That brings the total number of people rescued since Saturday to about 8,170 people.
 
Rescuers from the Migrant Offshore Aid Station (MOAS), Medicines Sans Frontieres (MSF), the Swedish coastguard and Italian Navy rescued at least 1,800 people between themselves. Most of them were picked up within a square mile some 30 miles north of Zuwara. Around 11am, rescuers from the Poseidon and MOAS were engaged with the boat in which the bodies were discovered when another wooden vessel with 600 migrants appeared on the horizon. An hour later, a dinghy with some 100 people on board was heading towards the rescue vessels.

The result is that some 150 people were left stranded on the wooden boat waiting while the Italian navy vessel Fiorillo made its way to the area because all other vessels in the area were filled to capacity. People started feeling sick provoking a chain reaction, while many more suffered from dehydration. Eventually, a doctor from MSF treated the most pressing cases and rescuers from MOAS supplied water making the wait more bearable.
 
According to Migrant Report, the migrants left Zuwara at around midnight between Tuesday and Wednesday. Most are from Pakistan and Bangladesh and sub-Saharan Africa.

nigerian guild of editorsThe 11th Guild of Editors Conference was held in Yenegoa, Bayelsa State capital, on Thursday.

The theme of the event, "the change we need: the role of the editor", conforms to the change mantra of the current administration.

Nigerian editors, however, agreed that it's time for things to be done differently to ensure the progress of the country.

The event, nonetheless, attracted editors from across the country and also very prominent fellows of the guild.

Chairman of the event and Chief Executive Officer of Channels Television, Mr John Momoh (OON), urged editors to "strive to see how we can take responsibility of what we do to the quality of public debates and thereby help to solve problems and not to make them insolvable.

"We should make a conscious effort to go right into the communities and find out what is of concern to them and bring them to the fore", he said, adding that all "editors must imbibe the new ways of doing things".

The Nigeria Guild of Editor is for editors in the print and electronic media.

The Nigerian Guild of Editors is a non-governmental, non-partisan, non-profit making organization, for the highest strata of working journalists who have attained the exalted position of editors in the journalism profession.

The post 11th Guild Of Editors Holds Conference In Yenegoa appeared first on Channels Television.

A former president of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo today said no Nigerian has an excuse of saying  he/she has no access to higher education especially now that NOUN has come to stay. He explained that the institution since its take-off in 2005 while he was still the president had been a viable alternative to conventional institutions, especially for adults desirous of university education and admission seekers.

He disclosed this at his Hilltop residence in Abeokuta while paying host to the executive of the NOUN alumni association led by its president, Mr. Phil Colman, and the vice-president, South-West, Mr. Ayeni Olutope.

He said, "Nobody in Nigeria will say he/she does not have access to higher education with NOUN, except he/she does not want. I saw some students complaining about law accreditation in NOUN, but I hope the Law programme has come to stay."

The former President bagged a degree in Theology from the institution.
