Opinion: Scary Probability

~ By Pat Uchendu It is no longer a secret that China is developing an artificial Sun that would be six times hotter than the one God created, at 100 million degrees Celsius, ready to be lunched into orbit soon. The Sun that God gave mankind has too many characteristics unknown to man. But I can argue that half of what man even claims to know about the Sun may not altogether be correct. The Sun is a ball of fire and no one plays with fire. Currently there’s no known space vessel that can near or dare the sun. We observe from a distance and brilliant minds have done great job of it. The latest I know of is that a space vehicle was lunched sometime in the past into space at an astronomical speed, which sends pictures to earth. At the time I followed up, it took three days for each picture to reach the earth. It’s been years now and the vehicle is still tearing away at an unbelievable speed into the abyss of the space. It is not designed to return to earth! I once read a scientific pi...

Opinion: The All Important IF…

~ By Pat Uchendu If China has actually found the antidote to Covid-19, here are my thoughts… The first thing am convinced about is that Covid-19 didn’t drop from the blues. It was developed and the people behind it were actually over reaching themselves either deliberately or inadvertently with some diabolic intensions. Whether intentionally created or otherwise, either way the scale and speed of spread was grossly miscalculated and took the architects behind it unawares. But question is, what were the premises that lent energy to this rather crazy agenda. My conviction is that it was possibly made real by scientific projections, the common ones being the fear Bill Gates raised in 2015 in a document called “Scenario Future Technology And International Development” where he countered and admonished that the threat to mankind would not come from the unwinnable nuclear war nor the annihilation of human race through Atomic Bombs like it happened in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, but by a roun...

Electricity tariff to increase by April 1.

Reports making the rounds is that there would be an increase in electricity tariff from Wednesday, April 1 st 2020 which is caused by shortage in gas production. The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) had earlier disclosed this in its December 2019 Minor Review of Multi -Year Tariff Order 2015 and Minimum Remittance Order for the Year 2020, that the order was issued to reflect the impact of changes in the minor review variables in the determination of cost -reflective tariffs and relevant tariff and market shortfalls for 2019 and 2020. Fact Checks by The PUNCH on Monday showed that the decision to increase tariff had not yet been suspended despite the lockdown occasioned by the COVID-19 pandemic. Report obtained that a top source at Ikeja Electric told The PUNCH that the firm had not received any directive from NERC as regards reversal of the plan. He said, “According to the tariff order for the year, we are supposed to increase on April 1 , 2020. So far, we have no...
