From Iwo Forest J.T.U. Aguiyi-Ironsi's unsilenced voice keeps breaking the inchoate rhythm of the Nigerian polity by asking: EVEN YOU, DANJUMA?

In the Part 2 of: Danger Ahead! Returning to Road ’66 is risking becoming a conflict zone perpetually…be warned, fellow Nigerian; now given a new title as above, JOHN ODEY ADUMA excavates and dissects the past, especially the volatile events of 15 January 1966 and the so-called revenge killings of July 29, 1966, and taking a hard look at the current state of anarchy arising from amongst other things, the abandonment of governance and abdication of responsibility by the captain of the ship of the Nigerian State, Sunni jihadist, Khalifa MUHAMMADU BUHARI (BABA DO NOTHING) - a notorious land robber, and peeping into his oracular glass, confirms that the current state of things coupled with the now pervasive persecution of Nigerian citizens by fellow citizens in their own country bears the semblance of the ‘60s, whereupon he sees Nigerians consciously on a lamentable journey back into that zone of the nation’s political pacific ring of fire – the zone of political volatility, ever known for its hyper-sensitivity, high flammability, supra volatility and supra-eruptibility.

Terror for Nothing and Bombs for Free

Terrorism is generally defined as the deliberate use of violence against non-combatants for political reasons. Examples of organizations that have been accused of terrorism include Al-Qaeda, the Irish Republican Army, Boko Haram, Hamas, Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, and Al-Shabab, among others. Some groups have rejected the view that they are terrorist organizations. Palestinian organizations deemed terrorists in particular argue that since all adult Israelis receive military training and are able to use weapons, there are no real adult non-combatants in Israel. Therefore, they reason, all Israeli adults are legitimate targets for bombings or shootings.

WHO urged to seek expert advice on tobacco track and trace standards

The International Tax Stamp Association has urged a new working group on tobacco track and trace systems to call on industry experts to help shape credible standards for the implementation of secure, independent systems.

The group was created following a historic first meeting of the parties (MOP) to the World Health Organisation (WHO) FCTC Protocol to Eliminate Illicit Trade in Tobacco Products last year. Its purpose is to create a best-practice framework relating to national or regional track and trace (T&T) and unique identification (UID) systems, and to explore the feasibility of creating a global information-sharing system.
