How Jennifer Aniston ‘Struggles With Depression’ Inspired New Album

Good web design has visual weight, is optimized for various devices, and has content that is prioritized for the medium. The most important elements of a web page should have more visual weight to “naturally attract” a visitor’s attention.

Good design is making something intelligible and memorable. Great design is making something memorable and meaningful.

Most users search for something interesting (or useful) and clickable; as soon as some promising candidates are found, users click. If the new page doesn’t meet users’ expectations, the back button is clicked and the search process is continued.

A good website should be easy to navigate

Not all websites are made equal. Some websites are simple, logical, and easy to use. Others are a messy hodgepodge of pages and links.

Without website navigation, your visitors can’t figure out how to find your blog, your email signup page, your product listings, pricing, contact information, or help docs.

Quick and easy access to the content they’re after is more important for your website users than a… visually-stunning design.

Creating visual rhythms in your layouts

In design, rhythm is created by simply repeating elements in predictable patterns. This repetition is a natural thing that occurs everywhere in our world. As people, we are driven everyday by predictable, timed events.

Kidnapper Shot Dead By Police In Ogun

Barely 24 hours after two members of a kidnap syndicate were gunned down in Itori, Ewekoro Local Council Area of Ogun State; another member of the syndicate, was yesterday killed by the state police command at Ilala forest, in Imala area of Abeokuta North council area.

Following another bloody encounter, one of the suspects was also arrested through the gallant exploit of the police officers.The State Police Public Relations Officer, Abimbola Oyeyemi, in a statement, said the gun battle between the police and the kidnappers was as a result of information received by the police at Imala divisional headquarters that six armed kidnappers were sighted in the forest.

“Upon the information, the DPO Imala Division, CSP Bernard Ediagbonya quickly mobilised his men, the hunters, vigilante men, so safe corps, as well as Fulani youths and stormed the forest.

He said: “On getting to the scene, the hoodlums, who sighted the team from afar opened fire on them, and the team engaged them in a gun duel. In the process, one of the hoodlums was gunned down, while another one who identified himself as Usman Maidama was arrested. Other members of the gang escaped into the bush with gunshot injuries.”

Oyeyemi said one single barrel gun; one facemask and two pairs of sandals were recovered from the suspect.

Interview: Four Years After Reinstatement, Meet OAU Students’ Union Presidential Aspirants

ODUDUWA NEWS HAD AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH THREE PRESIDENTIAL ASPIRANTS OF GREAT IFE STUDENTS’ UNION.

In the last four years, the Students’ Union activities in Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife had been paralysed before it was later reinstated via a statement made available to newsmen by the Vice Chancellor of the institution, Prof. Eyitope Ogunbodede in April. The VC claimed that he lifted the ban on union activities to honour the late Afenifere Spokesman, Dr. Yinka Odumakin who was an alumnus before he died. As the students decide today, we had an exclusive interview with three aspirants.

An exclusive interview with a penultimate student in Management and Accounting In OAU… We are pleased to have him here with us and we will be sharing our readers a quick exclusive interview with one of the presidential aspirants of Great Ife Students’ Union in the election that is holding today.

Join us in taking you through this quick summary of the interview.

ODUDUWA NEWS: Welcome to an Interview session with ODUDUWA NEWS. On a quick note,  kindly introduce yourself and  a quick response on your main intention of vying for the presidential post of the Students’ Union of OAU.

Efficiency: My name is Jimoh Kehinde popularly and politically circumcised as Efficiency, a penultimate student of the department of Management and Accounting, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, the leading university in Nigeria and arguably the foremost or better still, one of the foremost universities in Africa.

Without  much ado, in terms of meeting me, i can tell you categorically that i am in my early 20s and at the same time a preacher of the revolutionary gospel which is to fight for the emancipation of the oppressed as we know or that can be said to be the watchword for “Great IFE”.

Not to draw the curtain specifically at this point, i would say i am a man of my words and cherish sincerity in any of my dealings. I’m very accommodating, and this is to mention among many. Thank you.

To answer the second question,  I believe and perceive Great Ife Students’ Union as sacred. The union is supposed to be the  front-runner of progressive agitations especially when the country’s growth on the decrease. We have to revive our immediate society so as to face the bigger picture. I so much believe everyone should be guaranteed the right to life, liberty and property.

This is what has gingered my interest. We must create a platform for all and a union for all students not for some students. The lost glory must be brought back and I am on a mission to lead a union where the interest of the students shall be protected at all times.

ODUDUWA NEWS: Awesome! Thank you so much Efficiency! And Oduduwa News wishes you well.

An exclusive interview with OLOKEDE BUKOLA, a 300 level student of the Department of Political Science, OAU. We are pleased to have him here with us and we will be sharing our readers an exclusive interview with one of the presidential aspirants of Obafemi Awolowo University, Students’ Union.

Join us in taking you through this quick summary of the interview.

ODUDUWA NEWS: You are welcome to Oduduwa News Interview. On a quick note , kindly introduce yourself and  a quick response on your  main intention of vying for the presidential post of the Students’ Union in OAU?

BUKOLA: I am Olokede Oluwabukola Olamide, popularly known as BUKOLA. I’m a 300L student of the Department of Political Science, Faculty of Social Sciences, Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife.

There is a trend I have seen in the Nigerian educational system and it is one that portends danger. This trend is obvious to every discerning student and those interested in university education in Nigeria. This trend started several years back but all the attempts to arrest this dangerous trend in our educational system have not really yielded immense positive results. Many of us in the university today did not attend public primary and secondary schools and the major reason for this was because of the *low quality of education they offer which was as a result of years of neglect and mismanagement on the part of those who were saddled with the responsibility to do so.

Even the private secondary schools we attended, there was no proper regulatory measures put in place to ensure quality assurance.

The trend currently is that our public universities are already on the path of neglect and mismanagement, the path that our public secondary schools followed and which consequently made them not to be a point of call for our parents when they wanted to enroll us for primary and secondary school education. The danger of this current trend of our public universities is that it would lead to the collapse of the public university system and this would make university education inaccessible to many young people, and the socio-economic status of the majority of our parents cannot afford to send us to private or foreign universities.

This dangerous trend that I have seen and the realization of the fact that the Students’ Union is a viable and formidable tool that could be deployed to arrest this trend made me to step out to seek the mandate from the Great Ife Students to be the President of our dear Union in the coming session.

ODUDUWA NEWS: Awesome ! This is a great move and we definitely hope you succeed in this political endeavour.

 Thank you for the prompt and precise response Bukola.

An exclusive interview with OLAYIWOLA FOLARANMI, a 300 level student of the Department of English Language, OAU. We are pleased to have him here with us and we will be sharing our readers an exclusive interview with one of the presidential aspirants of Obafemi Awolowo University, Students’ Union.

Join us in taking you through this quick summary of the interview.

ODUDUWA NEWS: You are welcome to Oduduwa News Interview. On a quick note , kindly introduce yourself and  a quick response on your  main intention of vying for the presidential post of the Students’ Union in OAU?

I am Olayiwola Folaranmi Festus, known as reform. I am in part three of the department of English and I am currently running for Great Ife Students’ Union President.

My plan is to protect all the students and defend our constitutional rights and freedom as enshrined in the Great Ife constitution. I will stand for and uphold all times, the principle of the rule of law and also display all levels of transparency, and accountability which is the bedrock of democratic governance.

For me, the leadership we deserve is one that will be a source of pride to all Great Ife Students. I offer leadership driven by empathy and capacity, strength and sagacity. I will not be different or turn a blind eye to real concerns of Great Ife students. My cardinal point is progress, development and transformation of the UNION and shall make the union a source of pride to all students.

ODUDUWA NEWS: Thanks for your time.

BREAKING: Schools to decide benchmarks as JAMB cancels general cut-off marks

The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, on Tuesday, cancelled general cut-off marks for admission into tertiary institutions and gave schools the freedom to set their individual minimum benchmarks for admission.

The Board took the decision at the 2021 policy meeting, which was held virtually, and chaired by the Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu.

Speaking during the meeting, Registrar of JAMB, Prof. Is-haq Oloyede, said, “Some universities such as the University of Maiduguri, proposed 150; Usman Dan Fodio University, Sokoto, proposed 140; Pan Atlantic University proposed 210; University of Lagos 200; Lagos State University, 190; Covenant University 190; and Bayero University, Kano, 180.

“Institutions have now been given the liberty to decide cut-off marks; there will be no cut-off marks [stipulation] from JAMB.”

On the deadline for the closure of admissions, the stakeholders resolved to allow the education ministry to decide, as they could not agree on the December 31, 2021 deadline for all public institutions and January 31, 2022 for all private institutions.

Stakeholders also adopted the 2021 admission guidelines, which provide that all applications for part-time or full-time programmes for degrees, NCE, OND, and others must be posted only through JAMB.

The meeting approved that, for Direct Entry, the maximum score a candidate could present is six and the minimum is two or an E, as required by law.

JAMB holds make-up exams August 6
The policy meeting, chaired by the Minister of Education, usually has all heads of tertiary institutions, heads of regulatory agencies in the sector, and other critical stakeholders such as the chairmen of the committees on education at the lower and upper chambers of the National Assembly in attendance.

Earlier in August, JAMB had released a bulletin on the policy meeting, stating, “This meeting kick-starts the admission process into the nation’s tertiary institutions.

“It will discuss critical issues emanating from the presentation of the Registrar of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, JAMB, on the just-concluded Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination, UTME, and Direct Entry applications, in addition to setting the tone for the 2021/2022 admission exercise.

“The meeting is expected to chart policy directions for the nation’s tertiary institutions, set admission guidelines and present application statistics, candidates’ performance as well as evaluate the 2020 admission exercise.

“The meeting, in addition to other deliberations, would take a stand on acceptable minimum admissions standards to be applied in all admissions to be undertaken by all tertiary institutions in Nigeria.

“Given the critical nature of the decisions to be taken at the meeting, it would be streamed live on the Board’s website, www.jamb.gov.ng, on its Facebook handle ‘@JAMBULLETIN’ and other social media platforms.”

Warning tertiary institutions against commencing admission process before the policy meeting, the bulletin added, “The Board makes it clear that it is an abuse of process for any institution to commence any admission exercise before this meeting, as it is this forum that gives this authorisation.”

Oyo Assembly Resolves To Curb Illegal Charges, Extortions By Estate Agents

The Speaker Oyo State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Adebo Ogundoyin has called for urgent need to curb illegal charges and extortions by estate agents.

In a motion moved by Ogundoyin alongside his colleague, Hon. Babajide Adebayo representing Ibadan North II during the Tuesday plenary, the lawmakers noted that it is becoming rather difficult these days for prospective tenants to rent house or shop without going through an agent.

According to the motion, there is a rise in cases of people being duped and extorted by Agents who collect or charge illegal fees from them, adding that some dubious agents even abscond after collecting money from prospective tenants leaving no traceable address.

” Fraudulent and greedy Agents usually charge exorbitant fees. They collect fees like Agency fee, Agreement fee, Caution fee ( suppose to be refunded), Llegal fee, Inspection fee among others. Some even request for registration fee. When they give you what they call ( TOTAL PACKAGE) for the rent you will be speechless. “

Babajide said, “there is the need for the State government through the ministry of lands, housing and physical development and other professional bodies like the Nigerian Institution of Estate Surveyors and Valuers and the Association of Estate Agents in Nigeria to regulate and bring some sanity into the practice.

“All their charges are rather too high and exploitative. There should be ways of reducing the activities of quacks in the practice. Potential tenants must also resist any attempt to make them pay exorbitant fees, or negotiate better to avoid shortchanging.

“Security agencies should help investigate and bring some unscrupulous agents and surveyors whose criminal activities are capable of bringing discomfort to the people to book.”

According to the speaker, because of the development going on in Ibadan and indeed across the State, many people are now moving in. Sadly, a tenancy agreement which supposed to be 10percent, now cost as high as the rent itself.

“Can you imagine someone getting accommodation in Ibadan and the total package is #900,000. When this is broken down, the rent may be about #500,000 while other charges by the Estate/House Agents will be #400,000. Almost the same amount as the rent. This is really exploitative and exorbitant.

“We urge the Oyo State Government through the State Ministry of Lands, Housing and Physical Development, as well as other professional bodies like Nigerian Institution of Estate Surveyors and Valuers (NIESV) and the Association of Estate Agents in Nigeria (AEAN) to help regulate the activities of Estate Agents and Surveyors across the State.

“Let the professional bodies put machineries in place towards addressing the excesses of Estate Agents and Surveyors in the State, and members of the public and other stakeholders to go all out against quacks and fake Estate Agents and Surveyors whose fraudulent activities and charges are already giving the practice a bad name,” The Speaker added.

Lekbad Column: NDA Attack, The Need To Beef Up Security At South-West Barracks.

Comrade Lekan Badmus is a columnist @Oduduwa News.

The strength of a nation lies in the military. Everywhere in the world, it is the constitutional duty of the military to protect the nation from external attacks. Protection of the territorial integrity of a nation is so much important to sustain sovereignty. Thus, a nation that lacks such defense mechanism is vulnerable to colonisation. Such a nation could be annexed by other more powerful nations.

Defense is crucial to independence. That perhaps informs the colossal amount of money being pumped into the military in term of fiscal budget. The budget is statutorily required to procure ammunitions and other necessary logistics.

The president of every nation is the Chief Security Officer. Nigeria is not an exemption. At every swearing in ceremony of a new president or Head of State, it is mandatory for the president to swear to an oath. The letter of the oath is simple, concise and unambiguous. ” I pledge to defend the sovereignty of the nation “. By this, the president is liable to any eventuality. Thus, the right and privilege to appoint security officers who are to ensure the safety of lives and properties is enthrusted in the president.

The security heads in Nigeria are called Service Chiefs. These are the professionals who have been trained to combat both internal and external oppressions. The service chiefs have the right to ward off encroachment into Nigeria’s territory using maximum force. They are trained to defend and the best way to defend is to kill.

Nigeria constitution establishes various military formations for efficiency. Each formation is headed by a chief. Thus: Chief of defense staff, Chief of Army staff, Chief of Naval staff, Chief of Air staff. The chief of defense staff is the leader. Others control their corresponding nomenclatures but they work together to complement one another. There exists a synergy. The chief of staff coordinates all. Aside these service chiefs, there are other security paraphernalia such as the Nigeria police, immigration, Custom, civil defense and a host of others. They all work to complement the work of the military.

Nigeria military was known to be one of the best in the world. Emphasis should be concentrated on the word-WAS. It is not accidental that I used the word. It is rather intentional and the essence would soon dawn on you as you progress reading this article.

Under the auspices of UN or AU or ECOWAS, Nigeria military has gone out of the shore of the nation to maintain peace. This was more pronounced during the civil war in Liberia. The exploits of our military have been commendable.

Ironically, Nigeria military has been reduced to Boys’ Scout of Nigeria by the Terrorists. Nigeria military leaders have become nothing but “baby generals” who lack mental capacity and technical know-how to stop internal attacks which has been on for more than a decade.

At the outset, the excuse was lack of superior arms and ammunitions to confront the insurgents. At the breaking of the dearth of ammunition news, the entire citizenry bemoaned the government for their failure in the provision of the required logistics. The lamentations drew public sympathy for the military and a widespread condemnation for the government who later did the needful. No more excuse!

However, with the unabated attacks, Nigerians have begun to doubt the competence of the military. No one is save again. No one could sleep with the two eyes closed.

Recently, report flew like kite that the insurgents had attacked the Nigeria Defense Academy in Kaduna. NDA is an institution where military are trained.
This is a monumental embarassment in view of the many military formations located at Kaduna: NDA, JAJI, AIR FORCE base etc. Nigeria Defence Academy arguably should be more secured than Aso Rock. If NDA could be bursted, certainly, Aso Rock is not safe. Let alone my house and yours!

Truth be told, most of our barracks in South-West are porous. There are serious thorough fare and unhindered access. For instance, Adekunle Fajuyi Barracks at Odogbo in Ibadan is strategically located. However, development has gotten to the location and this has led to a situation where motorists ply the heart of the barracks to link Ojoo. The thorough fare is not gotten on a platter of gold. Motorists pay and purchase permit from the barracks which is about one thousand five hundred naira.

Aside this, the perimeter fence of the Barracks around Railway has been converted to shops for commercial purposes. Terrorists can as well rent these shops for surveillance. Right inside the barracks, there is an end which has been converted to garage. Where is the safety if a Terrorist planted bomb in any of the cabs ? All these are security threats.

A panacea to this alternative route for motorists is for the government to rehabilitate the road besides the barracks. The road links Ojoo.

Other solutions lie in intelligence and political will. These two are conspicuously lacking. The military is not intelligent and the government does not have the WILL to arrest the menace. There is a: suspicion of inflitration of the army by the terrorists.The dare-devil terrorists seem to have moles withing the army. War and Civil unrest could be tamed through information. Armed robbers and Terrorists also thrive on information. In view of this, it is certain that some people are divulging confidential information to the Terrorists.

Federal Government has claimed on several occasions that they have identified the sponsors of Boko Haram. If this is to be believed, does the FG needs any permission before any arrest is made on the suspects! Sometimes ago, the FG claimed that the military had killed Boko Haram leader in a gun duel. DisgustingIy, our elation was punctuated when he Shekau came out from the blues and boisterously released an official statement debunking the government claim. What an open lie ! Will it not be immodest to say that our leaders have been economical with the truth !

In my opinion, if FG could show serious zeal to Sunday Igboho and Nnamdi Kanu cases, what stops it from dissipating a corresponding energy in the same sum to these incessant attacks in the names of banditry and Terrorism!

From these notorious attacks and the lukewarm attitudes of the FG, it is either government does not want a ceasation so as to continuously attract international financial donations to develop a region.

Federal government owes us an explanation. The current government rode to power through sympathy vote. We were cajoled into believing that the man; who was once a soldier, knew how best to deal with the situation. Mr President did promise brim and stone; swearing at every electioneering podium that his priority was to nip the menace in the bud. This is the sixth year in power and the situation worsens every day.

In a sane clan, the unwilling leader would have voluntarily vacated the seat. Candidly speaking, the president does not need to stay glued to the seat if he is bereaved of ideas. In the developed nations, such a leader lacks the moral right to remain in power. To his people, he has betrayed the oath. If the government is sincere; having realized that the military cannot curtail the devils, FG should seek foreign intervention.

We need to learn from Afghanistan case.

Lagos First Lady Presents Bank Drafts To Beneficiaries Of WAEC Exams Support Initiative

Lagos State First Lady, Dr Ibijoke Sanwo-Olu today presented bank drafts to some of the beneficiaries of the 2nd Edition of the Lagos Exams Support and their parents.

She said the presentation was in line with her avowed commitment to support education of students in the state.

The initiative, powered by the Office of the Lagos State First Lady, is targeted at supporting WAEC candidates, especially in low-cost schools, to pay their outstanding school fees so that they can be allowed to write the ongoing Senior Secondary School Exams.

“This is part of our modest contribution to the future of the beneficiaries who were selected across the state, and it is expected that they will reciprocate this gesture by studying hard and coming through with flying colours in the exams. This is important for them to move to the next level of their academic pursuits,” the First Lady said.
