JOIN POLITICS AND STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT BAD LEADERSHIP–OSINBAJO TO YOUTHS

The Vice-President of Nigeria Prof Yemi Osinbajo has urged Nigeria youths  to join politics instead of sitting back to complain about bad leadership in the country.
Osinbajo gave this advice at the emerging political leaders’ summit which held in Abuja on Wednesday,  22th November.
Represented by Babafemi Ojudu, special adviser to the president on political affairs, Osinbajo said it was not enough for youth to always complain.
He said the youths needed to break the status quo by taking the chance to be elected and create the transformation needed.
“Youth have a challenge in their hands for the future of our country; so, I advise you not to sit down and fold your hands and be lamenting over bad leadership or politicians,” he said.

Get down to business, organise and do something to become elected political youths; after all, Enahoro became a leader in this country at the age of 23 and later moved a motion for the nation’s independence at the age of 27.
“The leaders there today will vacate the place tomorrow so if you the youths don’t start preparing today by getting mentored and learning the ropes. there is no way you will perform very well if the mantle of leadership falls on you tomorrow; so there is need for you to go in there and participate.”
Osinbajo however, cautioned the youth not to expect that from the day they start participating in politics, they would become the president of Nigeria immediately.

WIKE: what I will do if Buhari Visits Rivers State

He’s president for all Nigerians, and not the president of a particular part of the country or political party. “The visit would afford us the opportunity of interacting with him, if his programme would permit, so that we tell him the challenges we are facing and also, the contributions and efforts we are making towards building a stronger and more united nation. &#8220 ;We will use the opportunity to also tell him about the peculiar security challenges that Rivers State is facing and the fact that we have...

Scientists discover an enzyme that can Eliminate plastic wastes

Scientists have accidentally discovered a mutant enzyme that can fully eat up and decompose common plastic, and could help the world solve the problem of plastic waste. Researchers in the US and UK examined an existing enzyme which had occurred naturally in landfill sites and was able to slowly digest man-made plastics. But in the course of testing the enzyme's origins, the researchers made biological changes to it that turbo-charged its ability to digest plastics, according to  Britain's University of Portsmouth . According to The Guardian , the enzyme starts breaking down plastic in a matter of days, a process which would take centuries under normal conditions. The enzyme is called PETase, because it eats  polyethylene terephthalate  (PET), the lightweight plastic used in bottled water and soft drinks. Professor John McGeehan, one of the scientists leading the study, said: "Serendipity often plays a significant role in fundamental scientific researc...
