Admissions into Bloombreed High School for 2014/2015 Academic Session in Progress

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 12:46 PM PDT

Comparatively young but incomparably mighty. That aptly describes Bloombreed High School. There are schools and there are schools but Bloombreed High School (acronymed BHS) occupies an enviable position among high schools. The position occupied by the school in the comity of schools is by no means hinged solely on its architectural masterpiece, serene environment, quality of staff and students and facilities but also on the vision and mission that gave birth to the school. It is a school borne out of vision and mission. Continue...




No one does it better, boast some schools but BHS says no one does it as good. Bloombreed High School employs a method of teaching that is both communicative and interactive. It is learner centered and result oriented. This method has churned out interesting and enviable outcomes. When other schools gloat over raking the most brilliant students, we pride ourselves in our God-given talent of breeding every child to an acceptable standard. The academic standard at BHS is however, very high. As a result, students need to always be on their toes academically speaking. Without an iota of exaggeration, an average student at BHS is an excellent student in our sister schools. A closer contact with any BHS student will convince you that they are primus inter pares, as testimonies from independent and encyclopedic observers abound.
The academic odyssey this session was fulfilling and fruitful. Our pioneer students successfully took the University of Cambridge organized International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) and the West African Examinations Council organized WASSCE. The result recently released could be described as A HARVEST OF As AND Bs. We know that our best is yet to come. Our JSS Three students also sat for the Cambridge Checkpoint. The school is now a registered center for Cambridge organized examinations.
                                           
Our students participated actively in the Young Commonwealth Essay Competitions to mark Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's Diamond Jubilee and so far, a good number of the essays thus approved are accessible on the Time Capsule website on www.jubileetimecapsule.org.

Outside the classroom, students had some fun moments, as the excursion to Obudu, Tinapa and some other tourist sites in Cross River State was rewarding, as students caught a lot of fun while also enlivening and accentuating their classroom experience. A foreign trip to the UK is currently being planned for this summer.
Our sports contingent gave a good account of themselves at the Festival of Olympic Dreams organized by the British Council, where they won laurels for the schools.
We sincerely appreciate students, parents, staff and well wishers of BHS and urge them to keep the flag flying, since our best is yet to come.  

Admissions into Bloombreed High School for 2014/2015 Academic Session is in Progress

Femi Fani Kayode leaves APC, explains why

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 12:26 PM PDT

Controversial and outspoken two-time former minister Femi Fani Kayode has left the APC and explains why he left the party in a statement released this evening...see below...
I declared for the APC in June last year in Ado Ekiti, Ekiti state well before the party was registered by INEC. I formally joined the party, amidst great fanfare, on 7th February 2014 in my hometown Ile-Ife and I registered my membership on that day. The registration was done outside the Ooni's palace and it was done in the prescence of the media, numerous party leaders in the state, including Hon. Rotimi Makinde, who represents Ile-Ife at the Federal House, and all the other key leaders of the APC in the state and Ife-Ife including Chief Akantioke and Alhaji Soko Adewoyin the former  Deputy Governor of Osun state. After registering we proceeded to pay a courtesy call on my traditional ruler, the Ooni of Ife, and from there I went to spend a few days with Governor Rauf Aregbesola who, together with Governor Kayode Fayemi, I am close to and I consider to be friends. 

I have stated these facts and set the record straight due to the fact that Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the spokesman of the APC, had the effontry to say in an interview with Premium Times magazine earlier today, that I was never a member of the APC and that I never joined them formally. He also went further to say that had if I had been a member of the APC the party would have sanctioned me for expressing my opposition to the idea of a muslim/muslim ticket. The truth is that Mohammed is not only a liar but he is also a coward. If he wanted to know the truth he and those that sent him to issue the statement could have called me and asked me.

He ought to have done his homework before speaking out. I was not only a member of the APC but I was also a leader of that  party and a foundational member. Yet once I joined I began to see things as they really were.  I have never been and will never be part of a cult and the fact that people like Mohammed and those he represents within the APC are not comfortable with any form of admonition or criticism from senior party members like me speaks volumes. I have nothing but the fondest thoughts and memories for the majority of APC leaders including all the governors and most of the Presidential aspirants but today I have an important announcement to make. I wish to inform the general public that as at today, 2nd June 2014, I have left the APC and gone back to the PDP. I wish the APC well in all their endeavours but as at today we have parted ways forever and my spirit has left them. My reasons for leaving the party are because I consider nation-building as being far more important than party politics, party affiliation or party formations. I am a devout and committed christian and I cannot remain in a party where a handful of people that have sympathies for Boko Haram and that have a clear islamic agenda are playing a leading role. This is made all the more untenable when some of those people are working hard silently and behind the scenes to impose a muslim/muslim ticket on the party for the Presidential elections next year. 


I believe that religion ought to play no part in politics but a situation where members of the christian faith are not treated as equals and where the all the substantive positions of the National Executive of the party are made up of almost exclusively muslims is unacceptable to me. In fairness to the members of the party there are many leaders within it's ranks who share my views and who are also opposed to the religious agenda that the few have but I am not prepared to stay and fight from within because the very prescence of any closet Haramites on the same political platform as me is something that I find utterly repugnant. I have raised these issues privately with virtually every key party leader including most of the governors but nothing has changed. I cannot be in a party in which the spokesman. Lai Mohammed, only last year said that it was wrong and ''unconstitutional'' for the Federal Government to proscribe Boko Haram.

This is the same Boko Haram that has killed no less than 15,000 Nigerians in the last three years. I cannot be in a party where the leading Presidential candidate, only last year said that Boko Haram ought to be killed but ought to be treated like the Niger Delta militants, granted amnesty without any conditions, pampered and paid and who said, in 2001, that muslims should only vote for people who will protect their faith. I cannot be in a party where a number of leading people question the secularity of the state and yet those people are not called to order by the so-called party leaders and where such people seem to hold sway. I cannot be in a party which appears to have politicised the whole of the Chibok issue and who are not sincere in trying to get the girls back. 

I cannot be in a party where a few of it's leaders are more interested in playing politics with the whole Chibok issue and hurling bricks at our military for not doing a better job. I cannot be in a party in which the role of one of it's governors is not clear on the Chibok issue: this is a governor that has not been able to explain to the world why he insisted that the girls should do their exams in that school and remain in Chibok for the night even though WAEC and the Federal Government had warned them about the dangers of doing so. I cannot be in a party in which dissent and a differing opinion with others on fundamental issues is seen as an offence and something to be frowned upon or to be queried or expelled for. I have been in politics for the last 24 years of my life and all along I have taken monuemental risks and been guided by my princples. I have also exhibited that I have the courage of my convictions and more often that not I have dared to say what many others are thiniking but dare not to say. It is clear to me that such sentiments are not appreciated in the APC under it's present leadership and consequently I have chosen to move on. I believe that every religion and every ethnic nationality in this country ought to be treated with the greatest respect even within the context of a political party. I believe that we are all equal before God regardless of our religious differences. 

A situation whereby, as a christian, I am made to feel that I am a second class citizen in any association or political party which I am part of and for which I have taken risks is unacceptable to me. In order for any political party to move our country forward you need the input, support and confidence of the adherents of ALL religious faiths and not just that of the muslims. This is something that some in the APC do not seem to appreciate.  As a christian I feel deeply offended by some of the rhetoric and behaviour of some of the APC leaders and I cannot be expected to remain silent in the face of such expressions. These are the main reasons why I have left the APC. I wish them well in all their endeavours and like I said earlier many of their key leaders and governors remain my personal friends and will continue to do so even after this. Thanks and may God guide and bless Nigeria. 

Nigerians own most houses on London’s most expensive street?

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 12:21 PM PDT

While speaking at the launch of his grassroots initiative to fight diabetes and high blood pressure on Saturday in Port Harcourt, Philanthropist and chairman of New Nation, Charles Dukwe said 70% of homes on London's most expensive area, Edgerton Crescent is owned by Nigerians. He said that UK citizens including international stars can't afford houses in that area because they are very expensive.
"There is a street in London; it is called Edgerton Crescent. Edgerton Crescent is the most expensive street in the world. Houses there are worth £3m to £4m. British celebrities that have money don't buy houses on that street. They will tell you it is too expensive. But 70% of the houses there are owned by Nigerians" he said
Is this true? Any ex-governor's son/daughter who can verify this? *straightface*

Have babies while you're still young, as 'fertility falls off a cliff at 35' - says expert

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 07:38 AM PDT

TV personality Kirstie Allsop has criticized the culture of women waiting until their late 30s to try to have a baby, urging women to have children at a younger age as after 35, it starts to go downhill
"Women are being let down by the system. We should speak honestly and frankly about fertility and the fact it falls off a cliff when you're 35. We should talk openly about university and whether going when you're young, when we live so much longer, is really the way forward.
'At the moment, women have 15 years to go to university, get their career on track, try and buy a home and have a baby. That is a hell of a lot to ask someone. 
As a passionate feminist, I feel we have not been honest enough with women about this issue.
I don't have a girl, but if I did I'd be saying "Darling, do you know what? Don't go to university. Start work straight after school, stay at home, save up your deposit – I'll help you, let's get you into a flat. And then we can find you a nice boyfriend and you can have a baby by the time you're 27." Continue...

Don't think "my youth should be longer". Don't go to university because it's an "experience". No, it's where you're supposed to learn something! Do it when you're 50!'
It might sound wholly unrealistic. But we have all this time at the end. You can do your career afterwards. We have to readjust. And men can have fun after they have kids. If everyone started having children when they were 20, they'd be free as a bird by the time they were 45.'
I don't want the next generation of women to go through the heartache that my generation has. At the moment we are changing the natural order of things, with grandparents being much older and everyone squeezed in the middle." She told The Telegraph
Kirstie is 42 and has two sons, a 5 year old and a 7 year old. Who agrees with her?

'Verse To The Girl Child' - Written by Banky W

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 06:37 AM PDT

Here's a a poem Banky W wrote and recited earlier today at an MTN event in Lagos. Read below...


Verse To The Girl Child
What frightens the extremists and really gives them the spooks?
There's nothing scarier to them than a girl with a book
Not a soldier, or a bomb, or a gun, or a landmine
There's nothing more dangerous than her enlightened mind

So they kidnap, and enslave, and try to stand in her way
And they rape, and oppress and try to make her afraid
Because they know, that for sure, she'll grow up one day
And when that day comes, she'll be strong enough to bring change

So respect to the girl child, you've got grown men scared of you

Salute to our future Chimamanda's, and our Tiwa Savage's too

To our future Oprah Winfrey's and our Maya Angelou's

Because we know you will grow, and your success is inevitable



They can try to fight it, and they can try to deny

They can kidnap at night, and they can try to terrorise

But may nothing and noone ever succeed in snuffing out your light

And that little light of yours, will one day shine bright



They say the truth will set you free, well this is the gospel truth

There's nothing more powerful than a girl with a book
       By Banky W
Inspired by a quote from UN Secretary General Ban-Ki Moon

'We don't need foreign assistance, Nigeria can solve Chibok problem alone' - Chimamanda Adichie

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 07:46 AM PDT

While speaking at the 2014 Hay Festival for Literature and Arts in Wales recently, award-winning Nigerian writer, Chimamanda Adichie expressed her reservations on the foreign assistance Nigeria is receiving on the missing chibok school girls. Adichie said the foreign government should focus on solving their own problems and leave Nigeria to deal with theirs
"Now we have American drones helping us in this forest and even the French have sent in people – shouldn't they be fixing their own economy? We can solve our own damn problems. I'm sure that there are hunters in that area who know that forest very well. Why haven't they been used? Why aren't we depending on them? What we need is a better equipped military, a better trained military. We don't need Americans to send people in" she said. Continue...
She appreciated the efforts of Michelle Obama and all other international stars in spreading the word about the missing Chibok girls, an action she said made the Nigerian government sit up and act.
"It was very much a grassroots social media Nigerian campaign. The fact that westerners are sharing in something started locally is fine with me. I recognize that the campaign made a difference. People paid attention and then the (Nigerian) government had to sit up a little bit." she added

Yes I know the biological father of my twins' - Nike Oshinowo

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 05:13 AM PDT

Ex-beauty queen Nike Oshinowo who welcomed a set of twin via surrogacy in December 2013 says she knows the father of her twins and that the timing of her children's arrival was all determined by God. The new mum, who spoke with Hello Nigeria recently, said the birth of her twins is the most beautiful thing that has happened to her after her illness, Endometriosis, left her infertile for years.

Nike, on why she decided to go the route of surrogacy:
"I was out of my marriage and I was lying in bed, talking to my God."Okay, so, here I am, is this what you want for me? Please tell me the next step. What am I supposed to do now? And I fell asleep. As I slept, I felt a tug on the bedding and I opened my eyes, there is nothing and so I look at the bottom of my bed to see a little child tugging at the bottom of my duvet. It was a little girl so I carried her, put her on my bed and she played while I slept. She would always come in my sleep and play and then I would put her on my bed, we would play and then we would sleep. The one day I thought 'This little girl I keep seeing in my dreams, maybe I can have a child. Maybe it is God's way of telling me its time. I take my iPad while lying in bed and I start surfing the net all the while thinking I have Endometriosis. I literally typed in Google search 'what is the best way to have a child if you have extreme Endometriosis? I hit search and it came out!" she said.

Nike's children are mixed race, but Nike was coy when she was asked if their father is a white man
"I know the father of children. Is he Caucasian? Have you seen the rest of my family? That is what my family look like. I chosen to have my children look like the rest of my family. I chose to have them look like their cousins...they are all the same colour."
Nike, on her children bearing her own surname and not that of their father
"My children bear Oshinowo. It is a very good surname to have. My daughter's name is Faramade Oyinkansola Aduke and my son's name is Abayomi Oluwatobilola Akanni. My mother gave them their Orikis - Aduke and Akanni. I chose their other names. I am Yoruba and we typically do not choose our children's names by ourselves. The families choose it. I had to tell my mother I had chosen the names because they were the names the children in my dream had called each other. I simply translated those nicknames into my native language."
Nike Oshinowo also spoke on her marriage to her ex-husband, Dr Soleye. She says her attraction to him back then was his mind and that it was more of her following her heart instead of her head.
"To answer your question, the attraction to Dr Tunde Soleye was his mind. I can't really explain it but I am not a highly sexual person. In which case, you have to be able to be attracted by other things and he has a phenomenal mind. Don't forget I wasn't 18 or 20 or even twenty-five at the time. I was forty. But I have to say I was very much in love. Was I ...guided? More by heart than my head. Isn't that nice to be sometimes".
She said in the interview that she hasn't seen her ex since the divorce and that he has not seen her children since they were born. On whether she would get married again, Nike said she has not met "him" yet but is not ruling out the possibility.

Sudan retracts claim that woman sentenced to death will be freed

Posted: 02 Jun 2014 02:41 AM PDT

A few days ago, we heard that Meriam Ibrahim, the woman sentenced to death in Sudan for apostasy will soon be freed after the country's Foreign Minister Abdullahi Alzareg was quoted as saying that Sudan was committed to protecting the woman. But according to new reports, that's not happening as the Foreign Minister is now saying quotes attributed to him was taken out of context. 

The country has officially denied that Meriam would soon be released. Now they are saying Meriam's release will depend on whether a court accepted an appeal request made by her defence team.

A ministry statement said what Alazreg actually told media on Saturday was "that the defence team of the concerned citizen has appealed the verdict ... and if the appeals court rules in her favour, she will be released" and not that she will be released by the government because 'the government does not interfere in the work of the judiciary because it is an independent body."

Son of Int'l football legend, Pele, sentenced to 33 years for money laundering

Posted: 01 Jun 2014 11:21 PM PDT

A judge in Praia Grande, in Sao Paulo state of Brazil has sentenced Edson Cholbi do Nascimento aka Edinho, the third son of legendary footballer Pele, to 33 years imprisonment for laundering money raised from drug trafficking.
 
This is not the first time the 43 year old goalkeeping coach will be sent to jail for drug related issues. In 2005, Edson was arrested and served a sentence for drug trafficking offences and links with a notorious drug dealer in the city of Santos. Edson has denied the charges of money laundering but admits he has a problem with drugs.
 
He was convicted alongside four others including a man accused of controlling much of the drug trafficking in the region - Ronaldo Duarte Barsotti, known as Naldinho. Reports says he's most likely to appeal the judgement soon.
