Mandatory Credit: Mark J. Rebilas/File Photo. Microsoft Corp co-founder Paul Allen, the man who persuaded school-friend Bill Gates to drop out of Harvard to start what became the world’s biggest software company, died on Monday at the age of 65, his family said. Allen left Microsoft in 1983, before the company became a corporate juggernaut, following a dispute with Gates, but his share of their original partnership allowed him to spend the rest of his life and billions of dollars on yachts, art, rock music, sports teams, brain research and real estate. Allen died from complications of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a type of cancer, the Allen family said in a statement. In early October, Allen had revealed he was being treated for the non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma,

“We are coming back to fix problems….No more complain, no more failure”, he said via the official PDP tweeter handle. Recall that some Nigerians have complained bitterly on the affairs of the nation and had urged President Muhammadu Buhari who is doing his best for the country to come up with a working blue print that will liberate the country from its current condition. Connecting with the above however, the Nigerian Senate on Tuesday charged the President to sack all the service chiefs and employ new minds with new ideas that will help proffer reasonable solutions to the security challenges in the country.

Critics inciting youths against Buhari –Lai Mohammed

Published April 21, 2018 Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, says President Muhammadu Buhari has passion and concern for Nigerian youths, as opposed to what the critics of his administration want the people to believe. He said this on Friday in Abeokuta, Ogun State while fielding questions from journalists at the ongoing African Drum Festival. The minister dismissed reports quoting President Buhari as describing all Nigerian youths as lazy and always waiting for free things. He noted that the current administration had invested in the youth with some of its programmes. He said, “Some people have just made it their full-time job these days to scrutinise and twist whatever the President says out of context. “I wonder how a government that has employed 100,000 unemployed graduates and also feeds about 7.5 million people daily could be tagged anti-youth. “Our social investment prog

JOB CREATION AS A PANACEA TO YOUTH RESTIVENESS (NIGERIA)

By Eric D. Nnaji  CHAPTER ONE 1.0 INTRODUCTION The words ‘youth’ and ‘restiveness’ have become so commonly used together in the last couple of years that it seems to have taken on a life of its own. In the last decade and more there has been a proliferation of cases all over the country and indeed the world, of youth agitations which have tons of people dead and valuable infrastructure as well as personal properties lost and destroyed. A sustained protestation embarked upon to enforce a desired outcome from a constituted authority by an organised body of youths, fits the label of youth restiveness. It is also a combination of any action or conduct that constitutes unwholesome, socially unacceptable activities engaged in by the youths in any community. It is a phenomenon which in practice has led to a near breakdown of law and order, low productivity due to disruption of production activities, increasing crime rate, intra-ethnic hostilities, and harassment of prospective d
