president buhari speech today at 7pm: Oil, Politics and Violence Max Siollun, 2009 An insider traces the details of hope and ambition gone wrong in the Giant of Africa, Nigeria, Africa's most populous country. When it gained independence from Britain in 1960, hopes were high that, with mineral wealth and over 140 million people, the most educated workforce in Africa, Nigeria would become Africa s first superpower and a stabilizing democratic influence in the region. However, these lofty hopes were soon dashed and the country lumbered from crisis to crisis, with the democratic government eventually being overthrown in a violent military coup in January 1966. From 1966 until 1999, the army held onto power almost uninterrupted under a succession of increasingly authoritarian military governments and army coups. Military coups and military rule (which began as an emergency aberration) became a seemingly permanent feature of Nigerian politics. The author names names, and explores how British influence aggravated indigenous rivalries. He shows how various factions in the military were able to hold onto power and resist civil and international pressure for democratic governance by exploiting the country's oil wealth and ethnic divisions to its advantage.--Publisher's description. |
president buhari speech today at 7pm: My Transition Hours Ebele Jonathan, 2018-11-05 In March 2015, President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan made one of those courageous and insightful decisions when he stepped forward to acknowledge he had lost his re-election bid. Through that single stroke, President Jonathan raised the bar on office holders in his country and across Africa. This publication is a compilation of President Goodluck Jonathan's leadership prowess at the helm. It is also a vivid testimony of yet another real life lesson to office holders across this continent of budding democracies-there is life after state House! -Dr. CHRISTOPHER FOMUNUNYOH, Senior Associate for Africa, National Democratic Institute (NDI), USA |

president buhari speech today at 7pm: Dereliction of Duty Robert Patterson, 2012-01-30 Lt. Col. Robert “Buzz” Patterson exposes the terrifying, behind-the-scenes story of the years when the most irresponsible President in our history had his finger on the nuclear trigger. Dereliction of Duty is the inside story of the damage Bill Clinton did to the U.S. military and how he compromised our national security. From his laughable salutes, to his arrogant, anti-military staffers, the message came through loud and clear: the Clinton Administration had nothing but contempt for America’s men and women in uniform. For two years, Patterson was the White House military aide who carried the “nuclear football,” which provides the President with remote nuclear strike capabilities. What he witnessed is shocking. Dereliction of Duty is the book every American concerned about our national security has been waiting for—written by a military man who was an eyewitness inside the Clinton White House, and who can no longer in good conscience keep silent. |

It provides an understanding of the complexity of a site, that helps youplan for crowds in public places. |
president buhari speech today at 7pm: How to Save a Constitutional Democracy Tom Ginsburg, Aziz Z. Huq, 2018-10-05 Democracies are in danger. Around the world, a rising wave of populist leaders threatens to erode the core structures of democratic self-rule. In the United States, the tenure of Donald Trump has seemed decisive turning point for many. What kind of president intimidates jurors, calls the news media the “enemy of the American people,” and seeks foreign assistance investigating domestic political rivals? Whatever one thinks of President Trump, many think the Constitution will safeguard us from lasting damage. But is that assumption justified? How to Save a Constitutional Democracy mounts an urgent argument that we can no longer afford to be complacent. Drawing on a rich array of other countries’ experiences with democratic backsliding, Tom Ginsburg and Aziz Z. Huq show how constitutional rules can both hinder and hasten the decline of democratic institutions. The checks and balances of the federal government, a robust civil society and media, and individual rights—such as those enshrined in the First Amendment—often fail as bulwarks against democratic decline. The sobering reality for the United States, Ginsburg and Huq contend, is that the Constitution’s design makes democratic erosion more, not less, likely. Its structural rigidity has had unforeseen consequence—leaving the presidency weakly regulated and empowering the Supreme Court conjure up doctrines that ultimately facilitate rather than inhibit rights violations. Even the bright spots in the Constitution—the First Amendment, for example—may have perverse consequences in the hands of a deft communicator who can degrade the public sphere by wielding hateful language banned in many other democracies. We—and the rest of the world—can do better. The authors conclude by laying out practical steps for how laws and constitutional design can play a more positive role in managing the risk of democratic decline. |

president buhari speech today at 7pm: Iké Udé: Nollywood Portraits , 2016 The cinema of Nigeria, often referred to as Nollywood is a term coined in the mid-1990s to describe Nigeria's vibrant, film industry consists of movies produced in the country but watched all over Africa and largely by Africans in the diaspora. The history and development of the Nigerian motion picture industry is sometimes generally classified in four main eras: the Colonial era, Golden Age, Video film era and the emerging New Nigerian cinema. The book presents a selection of photographic portraits by Iké Udé depicting some of the major Nigerian actors and actress, television presenters, directors and producers: from Genevieve Nnaji, Alexx Ekubo and Kunle Afolayan to Gideon Okeke, Chioma Ude and Osas Ighodaro. With his ongoing photographic self-portraits, Nigerian-born Iké Udé explores a world of dualities: photographer/performance artist, artist/spectator, African/postnationalist, mainstream/ marginal, individual/everyman and fashion/art. As a Nigerian born, New York based artist, conversant with the world of fashion and celebrity, Udé gives conceptual aspects of performance and representation a new vitality, melding his own theatrical selves and multiple personae with his art. |

president buhari speech today at 7pm: Six Under Eight Madeleine West, 2016-04-01 'My son shoved an unpopped popcorn up his nose . . . what do I do?' 'My daughter was drinking from the dog's bowl with a curly straw . . . is that a problem?' 'There is something in my baby's nappy resembling a creature from the Alien franchise . . . should I be concerned?' Ahhhh, Parenthood. So much joy, so many stains. So many rewards, so many unfinished lattes. So many questions, so many people pretending they have the answers. Madeleine West is an actor, a writer and sometimes a comedian, but most importantly, she is a mother, and even though she has a perfectly functional television, she has six of the crazed critters to prove it. Madeleine is no expert, but if she hasn't seen it, wiped it up, medicated it, rushed to the emergency ward with it, raised bail for it, or given birth to it, it isn't worth knowing. In this hilarious, moving, brutally honest tale, Madeleine takes you through the ups and downs of the rollercoaster called Parenthood. You will laugh, you may cry, and you might just learn something along the way. |

president buhari speech today at 7pm: Beyond Fears: A Practical Information Guide on How to Live, Work and Do Business in Nigeria. Joel Olusola Akande, 2019-05-13 About the Book. Let us not pretend: Nigeria has a bad image coming from history of bad leadership, documented events of lawlessness, impunity and from some subjects for which Nigeria is popular: corruption and advanced fee fraud (aka 419). Nigeria is not a minnow either: being the largest economy and by population, largest country in Africa, the 7th most populous country in the world and a powerful continental and regional player. Yet, millions of Nigerians are by emigration scattered across the world driven by the harsh realities of Nigerian environment. Still millions of descendants of emigrants and the emigrants themselves dream of returning to a country they now know little about. Further, no discerning business person from anywhere in the world can dismiss Nigeria. They want a piece of the cake of a nation that is in the top 25 biggest economies in the world. Business people needs and wants Nigeria. Nigerians at home also wonder how to navigate and survive the Nation that seems to puzzle everyone: A desire that is wrought with high risks. This book is for everyone mentioned above. A guide to help readers to minimise the risk, understand Nigeria in-depth and to help readers to take a full advantage of the vast and untapped opportunities that are available in one of the top oil exporters in the world with almost a virgin economy or an country that is yet to fully take off. |
president buhari speech today at 7pm: Oil is Not a Curse Pauline Jones (Professor of political science), 2010 This book makes two central claims: first, that mineral-rich states are cursed not by their wealth but, rather, by the ownership structure they choose to manage their mineral wealth and second, that weak institutions are not inevitable in mineral-rich states. Each represents a significant departure from the conventional resource curse literature, which has treated ownership structure as a constant across time and space and has presumed that mineral-rich countries are incapable of either building or sustaining strong institutions - particularly fiscal regimes. The experience of the five petroleum-rich Soviet successor states (Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, the Russian Federation, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan) provides a clear challenge to both of these assumptions. Their respective developmental trajectories since independence demonstrate not only that ownership structure can vary even across countries that share the same institutional legacy but also that this variation helps to explain the divergence in their subsequent fiscal regimes--Provided by publisher. |

president buhari speech today at 7pm: The 43 Group Morris Beckman, 2014-04 Oswald Mosley decided he could carry on where Hitler and Mussolini had left off. On street corners his fascist speakers would proclaim 'not enough Jews were burned at Belsen'. Enter the 43 Group. In a ferocious, bloody and brilliantly covert five-year campaign, they destroyed the Mosleyites. The membership of the Group was almost entirely made up of British servicemen, the original 43 members quickly swelling to more than 300 and including a Battle of Britain ace, a VC winner - and Vidal Sasson! The Groups philosophy of the '3 D's' - Discuss, Decide and Do it - were quickly manifested on the streets of London, with thousands of fascist meetings and rallies sent packing. The Group was organised in 'wedges' of a dozen or so. These wedges would attend a BUF rally and at a given signal would storm the speaker's platform, attacking BUF stewards and speaker. The members' military background ensured tight discipline and brutally effective actions. This, combined with a number of spies within the fascist ranks, ensured the 43 Group almost always came out on top, closing down two-thirds of all fascist activity in the UK until its simultaneous demise with organised fascism in Britain in 1950.As capitalism falters, fascism is gathering strength in Europe today. This book is a timely reminder of how it gathers that strength - and one way of stopping it. |

president buhari speech today at 7pm: Buhari: The Making of a President Lawal, Jimi Adebisi, 2017-09-26 The first four months of the year 2015 will be remembered by many as some of the most apprehensive days ever in the history of Nigeria. The destiny of Nigeria was hanging in the balance. In the centre of this political theatre were two personalities with significantly different trajectories: one, the incumbent president, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) who had enjoyed an unprecedented, almost meteoric rise, to the apex of political power, and the other, then General Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress (APC). Buhari: The Making of a President is a story of intrigues, suspense, betrayals, reconciliations, collaborations and strategic concessions, one which only an insider could have told to such detail. |

president buhari speech today at 7pm: I Belong to Everybody and I Belong to Nobody C. Anguslaz Anokwute, 2016-02-22 Muhammadu Buhari was the seventh Head of Government of an independent Nigeria, serving then as a Military Head of State- and is also the current President of a democratic Nigeria, hence the fifteenth number one citizen of the Federal Republic. President Muhammadu Buhari was born, 17 December 1942, in a halcyon country side of Daura (to the family of Adamu and Zulaihat) in the present day Katsina State of Nigeria. But as fate would have it, this twenty-third child of Adamu lost his dear father at a rather tender age of four. Although Buhari lost his father at such an early age in life, the hand of destiny never left him to fall by the way side- to be consigned to the dustbin of oblivion. And so it was that under the sponsorship of a foresighted determined mother, the forthright Muhammadu Buhari obtained formal education at different times at his native home town of Daura- and also Mai'adua. It is on record that he attended Katsina Model School in 1953, and then Katsina Provincial Secondary School (now Government College Katsina) between 1956 and 1961. Any story told about Buhari will never be complete without mentioning the very fact that this man who prefers to live a low-profile or rather reserved life-style had a glorious Military career, spanning decades of dedicated service to father-land. This book is a compilation of some PATRIOTIC QUOTES CULLED FROM SPEECHES AND STATEMENTS of the currently serving PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA (MUHAMMADU BUHARI). The material is a well-arranged piece with the sole aim of teaching and instilling in our people that sense of patriotism or national-consciousness which seems fading away, or even lacking, but which is most needed at this time. Nothing gingers the human mind like inspirational words such as those contained in this presentation. It is our firm belief that something has to be done to re-awaken the spirit of our people towards being in tune with the change mantra of Mr. President. |
