The English language teaching and learning : my discovery

The English language teaching and learning : my discovery Ebenezer C. Eze Apart from being widely spoken globally, the relevance of the English language in Nigeria, apart from being the language for education and official gatherings, includes its use for recording, sharing and storing of official government documents, its use for broadcasting government information, its use for writing government contracts both locally and internationally with either companies or nations, and its broad use by individuals from different ethnicities for communication between each other or among one another. For effective learning of the English language to ensure , its teachers should be good at it, both in writing and in speech. If not, students would learn what the language is not and as such would be speakers of a language that does not exist. Knowledge of content, among other qualities of a good teacher, is paramount for effective teaching of any subject, the English language inclusive. Poor teachi...

How to enjoy Dr Fola Akinosun's scholarship programme.

Image
The way he stood up, bowed, removed his Cap and exalted God in Yoruba language was humbling. I wasn't expecting a man of such societal and academic status to do such in the presence of a commoner like me. He reminded me of King David of the Bible, who danced publicly till his garment went off. In this case, he removed his cap. Guess why? A case against him in Court was struck out by the judge for lacking merit. The History of a well structured dental Nursing programme in Nigeria can't be complete without mentioning Fola Akinosun,PhD. Though his College of Health ,located in Moro, Ife North;Osun now runs HND programme in same course and conversion from Dental Surgery Technician to same, it is not the main reason for this brief write upup but about HIS PASSION to see every Nigerian Youth empowered for self and societal good.

Team Nigeria was hit with the sad news on Thursday after AIU announced that ten Nigerian athletes were ineligible to participate. The affected athletes have taken to the streets of Tokyo to protest, claiming they are suffering for someone's negligence. Some of the inscription on the placard read “Why should we suffer for someone else’s negligence” “All we wanted to do was compete” “We are not just alternates but potential medalists.”  Under the framework of Rule 15, the minimum requirements of countries are to ensure that athletes undergo proper testing to maintain the integrity of the sport.  The AIU explained that the respective national federations of countries are responsible for ensuring appropriate anti-doping measures are in place in their respective jurisdictions.

Covid 19 : Biden calls on Congress to extend eviction moratorium set to expire Saturday

Image
  'Biggest trial of my life': Landlord says eviction moratorium has drained her savings   02:54 President Joe Biden on Thursday called on Congress to extend the  eviction moratorium  set to expire on Saturday that prohibits landlords nationwide from evicting certain tenants who fail to pay rent amid the Covid-19 pandemic. The Supreme Court last month allowed the order issued by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to stay in place until July 31, but said congressional action would be needed to extend it past that date. "Given the recent spread of the Delta variant, including among those Americans both most likely to face evictions and lacking vaccinations, President Biden would have strongly supported a decision by the CDC to further extend this eviction moratorium to protect renters at this moment of heightened vulnerability. Unfortunately, the Supreme Court has made clear that this option is no longer available," White House press secretary Jen Psaki s...

SECURITY : Why the US refused to sell weopons to Nigeria

Image
United States lawmakers are holding down a proposed sale of attack helicopters to Nigeria amid mounting concerns about the Muhammadu Buhari regime’s human rights record as it grapples with multiple security crises. US lawmakers on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee have reportedly delayed clearing a proposed sale of 12 AH-1 Cobra attack helicopters and accompanying defence systems to the Nigerian military. The deal is worth $875 million, according to US officials and congressional aides familiar with the matter. In addition to the helicopters, the proposed sale included 28 helicopter engines produced by GE Aviation, 14 military-grade aircraft navigation systems made by Honeywell, and 2,000 advanced precision kill weapon systems—laser-guided rocket munitions, according to information sent by the State Department to Congress and reviewed by Foreign Policy magazine. A report by Foreign Policy on Tuesday said the behind-the-scenes controversy over the proposed arms sale illustrates a b...

Turning Table - The beauty in treating strangers right.

Image
  As a youth Corper in a Yoruba land, i had a landlord who,unknown to me, did his NYSC in Igbo land,Anambra precisely. During the brief discussion we had that evening that made him reveal such, he talked of how his host community treated him well. Part of what he narrated was how village women would gift him with raw farm produce and the warmness of their heart. He would have asked us (I and the other igbo corper,) not to pay for rent,but for the fact that his wife had collected it weeks back. Recently, a dental technology intern called to ask me questions about the government dental centre in Enugu,my state of origin, be because she was posted to serve there. I've so far given her my best support as it concerns her accommodation, knowing the high cost of renting a room in the East, compared to Osun State from where she could be taking of. I know First Baptist Church uwani Enugu will support her warmly. Funny enough, we met in the Dental technology laboratory of the Osun State spec...
