Latest Nigerian Events In Development

By Minnie Whitley


Just like in any other city, Nigeria is having more events taking place. Organizers of such functions are often busy coming up with one event after the other. Some of the latest Nigerian events include business Trade show is such an example. It is planned to be held in the city of Abuja this year in the month of May and it will run for three days.

The pushing factor for the existence of this fair is to find the many things that should be done to make sure that agriculture is put back on its feet. This provides people with abundant food and the farmers are able to earn more and in the long run the country benefits also. The speakers give the various people new knowledge that makes them able to practice good agricultural practices.

The killing of an average of seventy people belonging to an Islamist terror group also made recent headlines. Those responsible for this are the military troops of Nigeria during one of their many tasks. This was not the first time that these two groups were colliding as similar cases had been witnessed in the past.

There has been organized a workshop for young researchers in arts, education and social sciences. The topic of discussion is planned to be the integration of research in development. This is aimed at targeting the youth since they are a majority. They are to be equipped with skills to be able to examine and come up with new ideas and be entrepreneurs in order to focus towards development. The event will be hosted in the University of Ibadan, located in Nigeria.

On a global view, the world economic forum is scheduled to be open in the republic. Many leaders of the world including presidents of some countries will all gather in Abuja to attend this event. This makes it the first country in west Africa to host such an event. Its importance is to look into to the difficulties or opportunities that lie within the continent.

Still in connection with the Islam troop, they are said to have kidnapped school girls from a secondary school located in place known as Chibok. This town is mainly dominated by Christians and the motive for this doing is not clear but some say that they will be converted to slaves or forced into marriages which are wrong. People are mainly engaging themselves in prayers hoping for the best.

The citizens are required to cast their votes this coming year. However, cases are being brought forth arguing that these elections maybe off. Lack of peace in the country is seen as the driving force of this affair. With reference to the constitution of the country, it is argued that when elections fail to occur then the current ruler continues serving his term. However, this is not yet a confirm fact but just the view of majority.

Lastly, the lives of Nigerians are in danger as many explosives are being ported. The public service vehicles are a common target. Security personnel are holding some suspects believed to be responsible for these attacks in the cells with the aim of carrying out a thorough investigation upon them.
