IMSU's Best Nursing Student Inducted

-
John Paul 
The 25th of March, 2017, witnessed a plethora of active celebrations at the Imo State University Teaching Hospital, IMSUTH Orlu, where the university's department of Nursing is located as the department held its first ever induction.

The occasion also caught an eye on Nnakwe John Paul, who stole the show by emerging top of his class.

Nnakwe, who hails from Ihiala in Anambra State, bagged First Class honours to become the best graduating student the Nursing department has ever produced since its inception.

With a CGPA yet to be ascertained, to have bagged First Class entails obtaining a cumulative grade point average of between 4.5-5.0. To have achieved this means that JP, as he's fondly called by friends, passed all of the over 70 courses offered without conceding any carryovers.

A registered nurse, having passed the Nigerian Nursing Council Exam, and one who has represented his department as senator in the students Union, John Paul believes in optimism.

Many of his friends, most of whom are his course mates, took to the social media to celebrate and eulogize him. One of them, by name Leostan Smith Marcel, posted on his Facebook wall:

"Congratulations my one only genius of our time (sic). U have proven to the world that what a woman can do, a man will always do it better. Bravo my gee."

KEMI ADEOSUN: Looking Beyond The 'Honourable' Resignation

-
Image
Very applauding, it was, to hear of the news of the resignation of the minister of Finance, Kemi Adeosun. It's very commendable because it is one act very rare in this our clime. It just seems that the penchant for relevance and money has denied the vast majority of the people that essential sense of integrity. That denial is one that has brought about the desire to cling unto power even in the midst of opprobrious criticism to just step down. We've had several instances were public officials formed deaf ears to scathing allegations against their persons and offices until some powers force them out. The case of the erstwhile SGF, Babachir remains atypical.  One can now understand why Kemi's step is such remarkable and verily one that needs to be commended. But the truth is that, as easily obtained in the western world, taking an exit when the heat is on and there's suspicion here and there is but a natural thing. This is to say, even as much as we could appreci...

WTO: The Issue With Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala's Nomination

-
I've been keenly following the developments as regards nominations for the position of the Director General of the World Trade Organization, WTO, especially as its concerns the general ratification by the African regional body, AU, to field a consensus candidate. In doing that I've looked at the nomination of Fred Yunov Agah and the eventual substitution with Ngozi Okonjo Iweala (NOI) by Nigeria, together with the dissension by Egypt, a contender in the forthcoming WTO election and a top interested party in the choice of Africa Union consensus candidacy. I have looked at it critically from three widely separate angles of national patriotism, independent objectivity and in the light of regional sense of justice. At a point, I sought to be overwhelmed by the flying influence of one over the others- that of having to view at the stronger propensity in standing a robust change internationally to clinch this post by Nigeria, in the event of NOI staying as a nominee.  That advantage ...

EndPoliceBrutality: Time for National Reforms

-
  Nigerian youths finally have decided it's time they took the bull by the horns in giving direction to the future they desire. With the launch of the endsars movement which was focused as an onslaught against long tales of incidences of police brutality, the demand has serenaded to an emphatic demand for good governance, good economic programs and extensive national rebirth. The #EndSARS protest which commenced on the 7th of October within the major cities of Lagos and Abuja, was specifically meant to send a message to the government that the SARS (Special Anti-Robbery Squad) unit of the Nigeria police have shown to not be only irresponsible but wicked, having totally strayed from their responsibility to protect the people and maintain law and  order and has instead turned to be inhuman, barbaric and monsters against the same people they're meant to protect. They had at such in expressing their bulging anger of many years taken to the streets, having boldly as their immediate...
