Breaking: Senate Rejects "The Ban on Importations of Cars Through Land Border"


















The Nigerian senators today called for the reversal of the Government's policy of banning importation of cars through land borders.

Recall the the ban took effect January 1, 2017

According to the senate, the ban will lead to a loss of 500,000 jobs as reported by the Punch.

The lawmakers described the ban as anti-poor while criticizing the policy during the plenary today.
The motion titled, "the Ban on Importation of Vehicles Through the Land Borders into the Country", was jointly moved by Senators Barau Jibrin(Kano North), Shehu Sani(Kaduna Central), Kabiru Gaya(Kano South), Sabi Abdullahi(Niger North) and Ali Wakaili(Bauchi South). 

The lawmakers unanimously rejected the policy, while asking Nigeria Customs Service to immediately suspend implementation of the policy

Sen. Ike Ekweremadu, the deputy senate president, who presided over the plenary, urged President Muhammadu Buhari to listen to the cries of Nigerians and reverse the policy.

In his word "From the contributions made, it is obvious that the policy is unpopular. We are representatives of the people and the people have spoken through us that they do not want this policy. I think those in Government should listen to them."

The Senate also directed its committee  on Customs and Excise to investigate what actually led to the Federal Government sudden decision to the ban

Donald Trump Statement on Banning Muslims from US Suddenly Disappeared from His Website?











Donald Trump’s statement on his website to ban all Muslims from the US has suddenly disappeared from his website. The statement was made by Donald Trump on the 7 December, 2015
The page now redirects to his a page encouraging voters to donate to his campaign.
As at 8 November morning before the elections commenced the page was still in his website, according to online caches. But the redirect was added later the same night.
Wayback Machine caches work by crawling websites and making a copy of what it finds there.   As such, it's not possible to say exactly what time the redirect was added, but only that the change had been made between those two times it was crawled according to Independent.
It has become the norms for Trump team to scrubbed pages from its websites.

What Was Discovered in the Belly of This Gigantic Snake Will Surprise You

This snake was killed by some Nigerian villages




Villages  who killed the huge snake after suspecting it of having eaten a calf because of its swollen stomach discovered it was pregnant with dozens of eggs.

Snake had been killed over accusations it had been feasting on farmers’ livestock.

However as these images show, the snake was not overweight because of its last meal, it was actually pregnant.

After being cut open, dozens of eggs were found and removed by locals who regard them as a rare delicacy. 

Although it was not clear what sort of snake it was, many snakes can produce up to 100 eggs at a time.

The locals and online commentor seem to have little sympathy with the snake, with most pointing out that it was a good thing that around a hundred baby snakes would no longer be born.

Judging by the size of the snake, which appears to be almost a foot wide and several metres long, it looks like an anaconda. 

But with the species of anaconda restricted to South America, it is likely the pictured snake is an African rock python.
