Waste management extends beyond just the dustbin
Similarly, banking goes beyond the ATM.
In China, they purchase trash to generate energy through waste-to-energy plants, but their challenge is a lack of waste to buy.
Ethiopia boasts Africa’s first major waste-to-energy (WtE) plant: the Reppie facility in Addis Ababa. It cost $130m, produces 25/50MW, and handles 1,400 tons daily. Ethiopia is turning waste (a problem and an opportunity) into power (an outcome).
What you see as your problem is always someone else's opportunity.
Owning Up to Leadership Failures and Political Responsibility
This morning, I listened to the British Prime Minister’s speech announcing his planned resignation in July. As a keen observer of global politics, my primary interest lies in examining what successful nations do right and the structural factors that cause others to lag or struggle with governance and development.
The Prime Minister’s planned resignation comes amid mounting public frustration over a stagnant economy, a worsening cost-of-living crisis, and a perceived failure to honour key campaign pledges.
Looking inward in our dear country, we can recall our own situation. Before 2015, our President on several occasions championed the call for the then President Goodluck Jonathan to resign over economic hardship and insecurity affecting Nigerians. During the Chibok school kidnapping incident, he demanded the immediate resignation of President Jonathan, arguing that the government had failed in its most fundamental duty of protecting lives.
During the 2023 election campaign, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu made several promises, including improved electricity supply. He also challenged the electorate not to vote for him for a second term if he failed to deliver on those commitments—particularly in providing stable power, fighting corruption, and improving the welfare of Nigerians.
At present, however, these conditions have worsened. Electricity supply remains unreliable, insecurity has intensified in many areas, including kidnappings, and economic hardship has deepened rather than eased. Similar concerns are reflected across other critical sectors such as security, infrastructure, transportation, and anti-corruption efforts, all of which have regressed. We are in the worst possible condition.
I, therefore, join Nigerians of goodwill in calling for the resignation of the President over monumental failure in governance. Such a gesture would help enthrone a political culture rooted in accountability and responsibility, rather than further entrenching impunity. It would also send a powerful message that public office is a sacred trust, not an entitlement, and help build a society in which future leaders understand that failure carries consequences. Only by ending the culture of impunity can we secure a better future for the society our children will inherit in a New Nigeria that is possible. -PO
Anti-muslim hatred is primarily caused by muslims doing muslim things like raping schoolgirls, burning down churches, abusing women, and killing christians in Africa
Sunday Igbogho threatened to KILL Fulanis in SW over the kidnap of Yorubas.
Yorubas are hailing him for "protecting SW".
NIGERIAN GOVT IS QUIET.
But when Nnamdi Kanu and ESN chased Fulanis out of SE, it was classed as "terrorism".
NIGERIA MUST DIVIDE‼️
Only a matter of time!
A young person @youngskales living in Nigeria needs to be convinced, that Bola Tinubu has failed, and that Peter Obi is our only channel to a better Nigeria? 😂💔
I'll rather have a conversation with a Cow than waste my time convincing you!
APC & PDP supporters want their party to win just to see OBIdients cry after the elections.
OBIdients want Peter Obi to win because they want everyone to be happy and have a better Nigeria.
The difference.
If you can’t beat up or get police to arrest thugs in your polling unit, do not come here to complain.
Thugs don’t have monopoly to madness. Social media is not a law court too
We must be hard on election thuggery.
I prefer to be sucked into the negative corner of the universe than say BAT dey try
Children dey bush for weeks but BAT dey try
Their mama dey dive bread like prime Buffon but BAT dey try
NEGATIVE CORNERS OVER SNAKES ✌🏿
