SHOCKING REVELATION: Electricity Generation Has Increased To 4000mw says FG.

SHOCKING REVELATION: Electricity Generation Has Increased To 4000mw says FG.

"At the end of 2014, China had 114,763 MW of wind power installed. Several countries have achieved relatively high levels of wind power penetration, such as 39% of stationary electricity production in Denmark, 18% in Portugal, 16% in Spain, 14% in Ireland and 9% in Germany in 2010".............Wikipedia

Does anyone really knows how many megawatts Nigeria need to meet energy demands?

In 2013, There were revelations by the then Power Minister, Prof Chinedu Nebo that at a time Nigeria has shifted the target date for generating 10,000 mega watts from December of that year, to the first quarter of 2014, he said about 200,000MW is needed to meet current energy demands.

Many question beg for answers here, why is the Government not  diversify its energy mix by increasing power generated from wind, solar and other bio-mass to reduce dependence on gas and hydro powered plants?

Read about the giant stride in Denmark Power sector...http://qz.com/450737/denmarks-wind-farms-generated-140-of-the-countrys-electricity-needs-yesterday/

Why has the Government not revoked the sham called privatization of the power sector during the Jonathan era and completely review it to see what works and discard what is not working?

Why has the Government not concentrate more on power Generation rather than Power/Energy

N1.35 Billion Fraud: You Mean I Am Now A Prisoner? Ex Governor Lamido Asks

Earlier, the defence counsel, Mr. Effiong, had argued that remanding the accused persons in prison would amount to trampling on their fundamental human rights.
He pleaded that they be sent to either of EFCC’s facilities in Abuja or Kano.
"However, counsel to EFCC, Chile Okoroma, objected to the plea, saying EFCC’s facilities were full to capacity both in Kano and Abuja".

Two things caught my attention in this matter.

Firstly, The Ex Governor even has the temerity to ask if he is now a Prisoner, this country would have witnesses catastrophic situation if Buhari had not emerged President because the corrupt leaders would have continued business as usual

Secondly, EFCC Counsel said their facilities were full to capacity both in Kano and Abuja, hen hen!, so there are so many culprits in EFCC dragnet and yet no change in the corruption perception index of the country, i think Buhari needs to change all the personnel in the EFCC institution because they all must have been infested with a common virus worse than EBOLA.

Justice Must Be Served....

INFORMATION MARKETING: THE MOST PROFITABLE ONLINE BUSINESS

In the last few weeks, I have been privileged to receive so many calls from people who are interested in information about entrepreneurship, small business and start-ups. These requests were attributed to many articles I had published online about starting a business of your own with little or no capital; also, the recent economic downturn has necessitated the search for alternatives to paid employment. Majority of young and the active population makes use of the internet to source for information on virtually anything ranging from “how to”, “what”, “when” of anything imaginable. I won’t be surprised to see people ask Google search engine what President Buhari ate as breakfast. All these centers around information marketing.

When you make a living online, a lot of people won’t understand what it is you do.  Some of them will think you’re nothing more than a spammer - just because you work on the Internet.  You might even run into people who automatically assume you’re into promoting porn, because they think that’s all the Internet is used for! 

You need to be prepared to deal with people like this.  Some of them may even be close friends and family members who are simply ignorant about the various marketing uses for the World Wide Web.

The first thing you need to explain to people is that very few people who work on the Internet are spammers.  Spammers actually make up a very, very small minority of those who make money online. 

If you do any sort of email marketing, you should explain that every single person you send email to have signed up specifically to your newsletter, and clicked a link to confirm that they really want to be on your list. 

Explain to them that subscribing to your newsletter is a lot like signing up for delivery

NO CAPITAL OR FUND? 7 WAYS TO EARN MONEY ONLINE BEFORE YOU EVEN HAVE A PRODUCT

If you are fond of Waiting until you have a product of your own to make money online, it means you’re missing out on a lot of potential profit that you could be making while you get your own products ready.

You don’t want to waste the opportunity chasing banks and family friends who will provide the needed fund to commence your business. I have seen a whole lot of people with brilliant and promising business ideas but they were unable to actualize their dreams. Even before I found my way around the solution to creating means to make residual income before the main product it was an onerous task, I applied for Loans, Grants and fund solicitation from friends but none of those sources was fruitful. 

However, you can still make money by the side with these tips pending when the BIG BANG! Happen. Here are the few steps you can take to realize your dream potentials:

1.     First, create a plan or a map of how much money you’d like to earn online and then take the steps to fulfill that plan. If you don’t have a plan or a marketing strategy to use to make money, then you won’t be as successful. See related plan http://hollalaycan.blogspot.com/2014/04/a-business-plan-for-set-up-of-nylon-and.html

2.     You don’t always have to go with what you know when you want to make money as an online entrepreneur. Pick a market or a niche than interests you. If it interests you, it’ll show through your efforts, and you can promote as an affiliate.

3.     If you can write, you can earn money writing for other online businesses or marketers while you’re building your own products. You can write blogs, reports, articles and even eBooks. And other service jobs are out there too – like building backlinks for

How Do You Know Who To Trust When Buying Online?

        

  In the world of Internet marketing, there are a lot of unethical money-hungry scam artists preying on those who are ignorant about the industry.  They know you’re new, and they know you won’t realize you’ve been suckered until it’s too late.

          So how does a newcomer to Internet marketing safeguard his or her pockets from the greedy, self-indulgent scams of an unscrupulous marketer?  First, you want to do a bit of background research.

If you land on a page where someone has recommended a course or tool that you feel will help accelerate your Internet marketing earnings, don’t buy on impulse.  You might regret it later and have to ask for a refund, or suck up the cost if no guarantee is offered.

Google can be your friend here. Type that marketer’s name into the search engines and see if there are any scam details. But beware!  One of the most common affiliate pre-pitches is to promote a product by using the scam approach initially and then building the product up with the detailed review.

You may see about 5 page’s worth of links if you type in [marketer’s name] and scam, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re real scam accounts. Always read the pages with care. 

You also need to know that practically every marketer has a disgruntled customer.  Some people get angry if their download link doesn’t work and they don’t get a response within 30 minutes. Others intentionally try to sabotage the competition by posting poor reviews online.

You should be able to find as much positive information (in the form of praise) as you do bad reviews.  If not, it might be best to steer clear of that marketer since no one credible can endorse him (or her).

Never rely on their own claims (even screenshots of earnings can be manipulated).  And if you find them in a forum such as nairaland, don’t think that just because they have the highest post count, it means they’re the best marketer.

Get personal recommendations from other marketers.  If you want to find out who has the best affiliate marketing guide, ask in a forum and find out. Or, take the recommendation of a marketer you already trust, because if they provide you with a poor product recommendation, it tarnishes their own reputation, too.

TIRED OF SALARY JOB: START YOUR OWN HOME BASED BUSINESS TODAY

Starting your own home based business can be easier than you think if you concentrate on something you’re interested in, exhibit some skill in the area and are willing to learn.  Home businesses are becoming more and more popular with the rising cost of living, unemployment, inflation and technological advancements. 

A home business is a good way to make extra money and even earn a living, plus it offers other perks.  When you work at home there’s no more driving to work and spending productive time in the traffics. You enjoy flexible hours and have no worry about childcare. The perks alone make starting a home business desirable.

Find the business or job that’s right for you.  You may have to start small and work another job before you can turn it into a business.  But, that’s usually the case with any job at home or not.  Search for a business that you have an interest in and show some expertise.  Most jobs are more successful if you enjoy them.

9 GENUINE REASONS YOU SHOULD START A USED CAR BUSINESS.

REASON 1. YOU DO NOT NEED A BIG CAR LOT WITH MASSIVE OVERHEAD: You can choose to be low key and sell just one car at a time, or five cars at a time, or twenty cars...or a have a huge car lot with one hundred cars. It’s up to you and what you want to do. I suggest you start small. And for what it’s worth, I've never had a car lot and have sold some few cars in the past through OLX and Nairaland. There are so many online platforms where you can display your cars for sale, many of these online shops are free to register with, all you need is one or two verification documents and you can advertise for FREE!

REASON 2. YOU DO NOT NEED LOTS OF MONEY TO START: I have a banker friend who started with only $1,000...and he has bought much cheaper cars than that in the past 2 years, he even bought some for as little as $500 on Copart, AIAA, American Auction,etc. And if you think you had to put hundreds of thousands of naira before the car is sold, then you may be wrong! Some of the car required only a little above N50k to get it ready for selling and its sometimes

BUHARI’S 10-POINT AGENDA FOR NATION BUILDING

As we revel and bask in the euphoria of a new chapter set to begin on May 29^th 2015 where a change of baton from the 16 years PDP led federal government is set to quit the track for the Change advocate movement and Nigeria new bride, the APC political party, we should not be carried away with funfares such that we forget the reason why Jonathan couldn’t get our ballots for the second time. 

We really need to observe keenly the electoral promises and resolutions of the President-elect, General Muhammadu Buhari, (rtd), who on April 29 outlined 10 development challenges as the mission of his presidency due to begin on May 29. Speaking in Abuja in an address he delivered at the induction held for the incoming members of the National Assembly organised by the National Institute or Legislative Studies, General Muhammadu Buhari listed the challenges as:

1.     General insecurity and insurgency that has caused extreme human hardship and destruction of lives, livelihoods that may take us over a decade to rebuild across most of North Eastern Nigeria and some parts of North Western Nigeria;

2.     Devastation and environmental degradation in the Niger Delta area which must be attended to;

NIGERIAN AGRIC SECTOR RECEIVES US$136.5MN FOR 2015 FARMING SEASON

Nigeria has released US$136.5mn to boost its agricultural sector and improve food security for 2015.

Goodluck Jonathan, President of Nigeria, said, “As crude oil prices decline, we must create new wealth from the richness of our soils, the vastness of our rivers and the abundance of our cheap labour. We will produce more, and industrialise the agricultural sector.”

According to Jonathan, the US$136.5mn fund is expected to encourage the farmers to plant thrice a year to boost food production and eliminate hunger and poverty.

Akinwunmi Adesina, minister of agriculture in Nigeria, added that the rice farmers across the country now had a new lease of life, owing to the transformation taking place in the sector.

Adesina noted, “The rice revolution is taking place across the country — in Kebbi, Kano, Kaduna, Katsina, Zamfara, Sokoto, Bauchi, Gombe, Niger, Kogi, Ogun, Ekiti, Ebonyi, Anambra, Delta, Edo and Bayelsa State.”

The number of seed companies had also increased from 11 to 134 in the past three years, increasing access to high quality seed from 4,252 metric tonnes in 2011 to more than 149,484 metric tonnes in 2015, revealed Jonathan.

UNEMPLOYMENT AND INCOME INEQUALITY: BUHARI WILL NOT PERFORM IF HE FAILS TO ADDRESS THESE BURNING ISSUES.

Anyone going into Internet marketing always wants to know how long it will take to find success. While success can be different for each person, the underlying question beneath it all is, “How long will it be until I start making steady money?” 

The answer to that is that it’s different for every person because it depends on your idea of success as well as many other factors. Some of the other factors involved will even vary from marketer to marketer.
You might be able to see your first sale the very first week that you’re in business as a marketer, yet on the flip side of that fast first week sale, you could toil all year long before you ever see the first dime for all of your efforts.
What is it that makes the difference between faster profits and having to wait? One of the factors could be the way you’ve set up the business - the model that you use in your strategy for success. 

Another factor could be how much time you have to put into the business. Obviously, the more time you have to work the business, the faster you’ll reach
