Political Autopsy of Nigeria 2019 election

Image
The recent concluded election  of Nigeria  reminds us of troubling political experiment that as gone wrong. For starters,  the laws establishing  Inec and conduct of election is deeply flawed.secondly, the method of appointment of Inec chairman by the president is a non-starter .thirdly the era of  bringing Vice-chancellors/academic professor into conduct of election as   not helped the political process. This year election was the worst ever conducted in recent memory starting with extreme poor logistics to embarrassing party primaries across all party spectrum of which the ruling party defied all antecedent of democratic ethos.

I have a friend (who will remain nameless) who spent 7 years in prison after his $1.97 million/year PROFIT heroin business (he was 22 at the time) was shut down by the DEA.

Good news for people who love their job, but hate the office! More and more companies are choosing to operate on remote teams. Some of the fastest-growing remote jobs are in STEM fields (e.g. programmers, actuaries and data scientists), which grew by 50 percent in 2018, says Brie Reynolds, a senior career specialist at FlexJobs. Remotejob growth has also grown across industries like finance, banking, insurance, healthcare and real estate.

Companies are also realizing that, beyond saving on real estate, employing remote workersexpands their talent pool and increases retention. If you're looking to land a high-paying remote job, a...
