September 11 is here again
September eleven 2001 was a black day in American history and indeed the whole world when over three thousand people died due to the callousness of a group named al-Qaeda. Today we commiserate with the families of people that lost their love ones. I am however baffled by the number of years it took American nation to track down the ring leader of the twin tower disaster. I ask myself that indeed the only one almighty is God who cannot be beaten. It shocked the whole world that this could happen in America who was tag the policeman of the world. More so that it took America a decade to get the hench man down.
World handwashing day is 15th October 2011
We at unodays joined the rest of the world in celebrating this important health promoting celebration.

UN House Bombing in Abuja Nigeria-23 confirmed dead
Channel television news, a local television station in Nigeria confirmed twenty three (23) dead in the recent bombing of the UN headquarters in Abuja Nigeria. Most of those wounded are already flown out of Nigeria for better treatment.
UN House Bombing in Abuja Nigeria
The 26th of August bombing of the UN house in Abuja shows a great surprise on how much the mission of United Nations is misconstrued. The unodays project in the years to come shall promote the mission of UN through the marking of her various days in the grassroots. We commiserate with the families of those that lost their life and those wounded. We wish them quick recovery.

Giving a hand to ailing medical sector in Nigeria
Comment: The NHIS has not been able to resolve a number of questions and the health bill is already laced with controversies from onset. How could the masses get services with the present constraints.

''75% Primary School Teachers In Kano Unqualified''
Comment: This is the real problem behind dwindling standard of education in Nigeria. Why are are they unqualified? Poorly trained.
Islamic Banking: A time bomb in Nigeria.
Comment: A lot of disharmonious commentaries on Islamic banking in Nigeria. Nigeria is polarised along many lines but the most violent is religion. Boko Haram is very fresh with us. This is definitely a wrong time to introduce Islamic banking in Nigeria. The CBN governor should have called it non-interest banking from onset but he was very aggressive about it. He urged anyone who has contrary view to go to court. This explains that there is a bad motive that is yet to be revealed.

''Nigerian Jailed in UK for Human Trafficking''
Comment: I was on a flight to Nigeria (mostly Nigerians on-board) from Joburg South Africa and sited beside me was a white young man who was working with his phone. I noticed that each time I looked at his direction he turns the screen away, apparently to prevent me from seeing what he was doing. I do not blame him because he was doing so because of what he probably have heard about Nigerians. This is another news that may 'help' this kind of people.

UNFPA's programs

delivery, enable couples to determine the number and spacing of their
children, and prevents the spread of HIV and AIDS and other sexually
transmitted infections. It also promotes gender equality and combats
violence against women.''

Comment: When I read about Doctors in Nigeria not having facilities to work with the question that keep coming to my mind is how were the Nigerian doctors trained? If there are no facilities to work with where are the facilities used in training them in the first place since most of our teaching hospitals where they work are the best places for training and treatment. The rich still run to India for treatment but the poor has no option. I find these claims difficult to fit into my understanding

''75%Primary School Teachers in Kano unqualified''
Comment: In Nigeria each state has what is called State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB). Among other things this body is responsible for regulation of education standards across schools in each state. The above report asserted the fact that education standard in Nigerian schools is fallen and the 13% budgetary allocation to education in the present 2011 government spending is not only inadequate but will not help the country out of her present level.

Dual Sims: Do we need them?
Comment: I read in a Nigerian press that the Ghanian are pushing for a 'universal' sim which will enable users to migrate to any network i.e. service provider of his choice at will. What happens that we could not have same in Nigeria rather than two sims that continue to tie us to GSM service providers?

Security: ''Monitor your home with motion-sensing bulbs''
Comment: Recently Nigeria has had a number of bomb explosions which has posed a lot of questions. Suddenly security matters that were once treated with levity now receive attention. The attitude of our leaders at almost all levels of government is to allow some problems to arise and escalate before they could gain attention.

Electricity Tariff: When it becomes convenient to ignore the yearning of the people
Comment: It is very conveneint for governent in Nigeria to ignore the yearnings and pains of the people. At last the new hiked electricity tariff which the director described as routine will take effect this month(July2011). In our homes there is no electricity but bills keep come every month for what we did not use.

''The Abiye Programme: From Akure to Washington''
Comment:This article highlighted important factors that will help Abiye programme survive and serve its purposes namely: 'visionary leadership, political will... clear job description etc. One big factor is missing- The health workers which include the doctors are not cohesive. There is no unity within the medical and dental teams. A lot of intrigues pervade the whole place. This is an in-house thing and it is killing the system. Until government takes time to study the health system and desist from divide and rule approach the health system will continue to fail no matter the billion of dollar money pumped into it. Does this exist in American system?

Nigerian Bottling Company, Bottler of Coca-cola soft drink brand employs casual workers and pay less than $3/day
Comment: I have some questions. Does this complies with international labour law which a multinational company like NBC suppose to know? Can Nigerian government claim ignorance, if no what have they done since this report. The practice here in this part of Africa is for government to look the other way while foreign companies exploit the poor populace.

''2.5 Million Somalis need emergency humanitarian aid-UN''
Comment: News of war pervades the world today as if there is no end to it. Poor Somalis are in no doubt the hardest hit by all of this. How could the world leaders help bring an end to wars everywhere? The middle east is indeed a troubled region as at today. The United Nations is indeed overwhelmed by all these humanitarian needs although doing its best but... I just hope the wars will stop.

''Butchers return to filthy ways''
Comment: When the present government in Lagos State in Nigeria came to power in over four years ago the use of motor bike to convey beef meat from slaughter spots to the market was replaced by meat van. Unfortunately, butchers have returned to their old practice. How could healthy foods reach the populace because this is how other farm produces are conveyed to the end users. There is a tradition of unhealthy handling of products meant for human consumption in Nigeria especially in the cities.

''Despite meltdown, the rich are getting richer'' At least it is better for those in developed countries where these rich men are giving out to help the poor.
Comment: Those in developed worlds will not find it difficult to cheer the energy and knowledge these men invested to have to keep their wealth because in one way or another there are little ways something is coming back as help to the poor. For Africa, it is a different story. The poor are further impoverished for the rich to continue to get richer. The game is give to those in government in order to continue to get government contracts and enjoy doing businesses even at the expense of the poor.
