WHY MUST NIGERIA GIVE CONDITION TO RELEASE KANU?


WHY MUST NIGERIA GIVE CONDITION TO RELEASE KANU?

WHY MUST NIGERIA GIVE CONDITION TO RELEASE KANU?
When Kanu granted interview to Nigerian reporters he said– Nigeria is a Zoo because they Nigerians only understand violence, peace is a thing of human beings and hence Nigerians are monkeys and baboons dialogue and peace are alien to them. Nnamdi Kanu chose peace and today indeed Nigeria only understand violence by violently killing peaceful protesters and violently tortured and detaining him, they have failed to understand the peace Nnamdi Kanu came with.Boko haram is being pleaded to accept dialogue, Buhari went as far as looking for the leadership of the terrorist group for them to dialogue to stop their insurgence. When militants in Biafra land opted to struggle for resource control, recall that Ken Sarowiwa confronted the effort with peace, he was killed by Nigerian government but when violence came in, they armed theirselves, Nigerian government listened to them and discussed for a solution which begot amnesty. Nnamdi Kanu is aware of the risk of peacefully asking the zoo called Nigeria something, they take peaceful approach as weakness and try to kill or subdue that misinterpreted brave man peacefully and lawfully asking them for something. Though Nnamdi Kanu frightened Nigeria so much with his mouth simply to draw attention to his cause, they have given him the needed attention, instead of to dialogue with him to end or solve his cause for agitation, they chose to imprison him. Confronting him with violence, deprivation and abuse of rights is the solution Nigeria have.

As a man that grew up in London where civilization breathes, he has no option but to apply common sense and legally execute Biafra. There are distinct calls for violence, it is widely believed that making use of arms is the language Nigeria understands but even-though that is the case, we must be patient and cautiously temper extremity.
This is a time to call the attention of human beings and solicit for diplomatic engagement or humanitarian engagement to solve this agitation. Biafrans have demonstrated and shown the resoluteness that they want to be free while Nigeria have shown animalistic feature of inability to solve problems with common sense. They believe that killing of oppositions or agitators is the only solution that is feasible and this solution is so barbaric and animalistic that human beings have to stand up in defense of their kind.
Why must Kanu be threatened with imprisonment to stop Biafra agitation or why must he quit Biafra agitation to be a free man. Nigeria is really contravening local and international laws of which 1984 human right declaration is threatened. The world must rise up to this barbarism and hatred, condemn it, abhor it and speak up against it for a  better world for all.

– Multiple explosions recorded in Benin City, the Edo state capital
– Four residential buildings were affected
– Tension on the rice in Oshiomhole’s state
Four residential buildings were Tuesday destroyed in a multiple explosions that occurred in parts of Benin City, capital of Edo state.

The first explosion was said to have occurred at about 2.00 pm around Oka primary school area, close to the junction popularly known as ‘three house’, off Upper Sakponba road in Ikpoba-Okha local government area of the state. ‎

It was gathered that the first explosion occurred when a patent medicine dealer, Elue Chinedu, who operated from one of the buildings, was burning the refuse he swept from the building at a refuse dump.

‎Operatives of Edo state anti-bomb squad and anti riot policemen, led by Musa Uba, a deputy commissioner of police, were said to have been promptly drafted to the place to secure and cordon off the area.

Another deafening explosion however went off at about 6.16 pm, when the anti-bomb squad was trying to detonate other explosives discovered.

Louvre blades, PVC ceilings, doors, aluminum roofing sheets, bore hole rubber tanks and part of the front perimeter fence of the buildings were shattered.

This development heightened tension and anxiety in the entire area as people scampered in different directions for safety as the people apparently suspected that men of the dreaded Boko Haram were responsible for the explosion.

One of the occupants of one of the affected buildings and a woman who was passing by were said to have sustained serious injuries from the explosion, but no live was lost.

It was gathered that suspected kidnappers had lived in one of the buildings in the past, but left the house two years ago when security operatives raided the area.

A 70-year-old woman, Hannah Francis, who lives directly oppose the scene of the explosion, said she heard a deafening sound and had come out to find out what happened, only to see a thick, dark smoke from the building.

Narrating his ordeal, the patient medicine dealer, Elue Chinedu, said he rented the entire building about nine months ago.

He disclosed that after an electrician carried out some minor repairs in his living room, he decided to sweep and burn the refuse at a nearby refuse dump.

“An electrician came to work in the house and I said let me use the opportunity to clean the compound. I gathered the waste papers together and wanted to burn it. As I was burning the papers, I said let me go and buy ice cream. That was when the thing exploded and I sustained some injuries,” he said.

Chinedu was later whisked away by the Police.

Efforts to get the comment of the state commissioner of police, Chris Ezike were not successful.‎‎
This lates development is sure to send shivers down the spines of Edo indigenes as reports of bombing are seldom heard in the state, especially in the capital and historic city of Benin.

HIV vaccine maybe on the way – Research

HIV vaccine maybe on the way – Research

 – New study shows potential HIV vaccine has been successful on test subjects.
 – Uses virus linked to common cold to produce results.
 – Trial took place in Africa and North America.

According to new research the long awaited HIV vaccine could, just possibly, be a reality soon.
Research published in the Annals of Internal Medicine on Monday showed a new type of HIV vaccine was relatively successful when trialed.

The study, conducted among 218 volunteers in Africa and North America, tested two different vaccine methods.

One method used a vaccine consisting of adenovirus serotype 26, the other used adenovirus serotype 35.

Adenoviruses are airborne viruses that occur naturally and generally cause common colds.
They have been suggested for use as vaccine ‘vectors,’ or a carrier of a virus, to produce immune responses against HIV.

“The development of a vaccine to prevent HIV infection is a global health priority,”Annals reported in a news release.

“To date, four vaccine strategies have been assessed for possible efficacy and only has showed modest and short-lived efficacy. A significant challenge is how to elicit robust and durable anti-HIV-1 immune response.”

Adenovirus serotypes 26 and 35 are not very common, so the idea is that a vaccine using them will not fail due to a person’s natural immunity.

These adenovirus-vectored serotypes already have been shown to be protective as HIV-1 vaccines in monkeys.

“Both vaccines elicited significant immune responses in all populations,” the authors said.
The trial was conducted between October 2010 and November 2012.

None of those involved in the trial suffered any side effects.

The study was comprised of approximately half of the participants’ women and half men, with an average age of 27.
