Published

Prof Oluwalana is revealing the untapped wealth in Nigeria’s natural resources by exporting human faeces and cockroaches.

Discover how these unconventional commodities can generate billions of naira and contribute to the nation’s economic growth.

Nigeria, a nation abundantly blessed with diverse natural resources, has an extraordinary opportunity to unlock its economic potential, Prof Samuel Oluwalana, a distinguished lecturer at the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, has revealed.

Oluwalana reveals that Nigeria is missing out on significant financial gains by not exporting human faeces, cockroaches, and even scorpions to foreign countries.

By delving into this unexplored market, Nigeria could amass substantial profits and leverage its abundant forest resources for wealth creation and commercial success.

The Potential Of Cockroach Exportation

Indigenous knowledge highlights a peculiar demand for cockroaches in China, where they are consumed as a delicacy.

Astonishingly, Nigeria possesses a wealth of cockroaches that could be exported to meet this demand and generate billions of naira in revenue, according to Prof Oluwalana who calls upon Nigerians to recognize the economic value of these tiny creatures and seize the opportunity to produce and supply them to international markets.

“Notably, a Chinese entrepreneur has amassed an astonishing fortune by capitalizing on the burgeoning demand for cockroaches. It is time for Nigeria to tap into this thriving industry, ” Oluwalana said.

The Scorpion’s Value

Furthermore, scorpions, often considered pests in many parts of the world, hold tremendous monetary worth. Nigeria’s vast forest belts are home to scorpions, the venom of which can be extracted and sold for substantial sums.

Prof Oluwalana enlightens the people about the astonishing prices scorpion venom commands, with a gallon of 4.75 litres fetching a staggering $99 million, stating that these valuable resources are being overlooked.

“By recognizing the economic potential of scorpions and facilitating their sustainable extraction, Nigeria could benefit immensely, boosting its economy and reaping the rewards of its natural abundance, ” Oluwalana said.

Nigeria’s Forest Resources: A Solution To Health Challenges

Despite Nigeria’s vast forest resources, the nation continues to grapple with pervasive poverty and various health challenges. Prof Oluwalana highlights the immense potential these resources hold for addressing prevalent health conditions such as cancer, diabetes, hypertension, and more. By exploring the medicinal properties of plants and animal resources within the forests, Nigeria could revolutionize its healthcare sector and alleviate the burden of these ailments. The professor urges Nigerians to embrace indigenous knowledge as a valuable source of age-old wisdom and traditional healing methods, providing a holistic approach to wellness and wealth creation.

Innovative Uses Of Human Faeces

Human faeces, an unconventional resource, possesses surprising possibilities. Prof Oluwalana sheds light on the remarkable applications of human faeces in various industries.

For instance, it can be processed into charcoal, providing an eco-friendly fuel source for cooking. Interestingly, countries like the United States have already recognized the value of human faeces and are capitalizing on it by extracting gold and even employing it to safeguard astronauts in space.

In Kenya, human faeces are ingeniously utilized to construct bridges and houses, while new toilet technologies convert it into cooking fuel. Prof Oluwalana emphasizes the need for creativity and innovative thinking to fully harness the potential of human faeces as a valuable resource.

Trump threatens attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities as talks continue

Published

on

U.S. President Donald Trump has reiterated his threat of drastic consequences for Iran over its nuclear programme, including a potential attack on Tehran’s nuclear facilities.

During a meeting at the White House with Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele, Trump said: “They can’t have a nuclear weapon, and they got to go fast, because they’re fairly close to having one, and they’re not going to have one.

“And if we have to do something very harsh, we’ll do it. And I’m not doing it for us.

“I’m doing it for the world, and these are radicalised people, and they cannot have a nuclear weapon.”

When questioned by a reporter if this included an attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities, Trump affirmed, “Of course it does.”

The U.S. government and other Western states as well as Israel aim to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons.

During his first term in office in 2018, Trump unilaterally withdrew from the Vienna nuclear deal, which was designed to limit Iran’s nuclear programme and lift sanctions in return.

Following this, Tehran also ceased adhering to the agreement’s stipulations.

Last Saturday, the U.S. and Iran resumed talks about a possible new nuclear agreement after years of deadlock, with Oman acting as a mediator.

The next round of talks is expected to hold on Saturday in Rome.

Trump confirmed the scheduled date and expressed confidence in resolving the issue with Iran, describing it as “almost an easy” problem.

Earlier Monday, the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Rafael Grossi announced that he would travel to Tehran this week ahead of the next round of nuclear talks.

According to Iranian media reports, Grossi is expected in Tehran on Wednesday.

“Continued engagement and cooperation with the agency is essential at a time when diplomatic solutions are urgently needed,” Grossi wrote on X on Monday.

Tehran’s lack of cooperation with IAEA inspectors is a main cause of the growing tensions surrounding Iran’s nuclear programme, along with its production of near weapons-grade uranium. (dpa/NAN

Alleged N33.8bn fraud: Court adjourns trial of ex-Power Minister

Published

on

The Federal High Court in Abuja on Monday, adjourned the trial of former Minister of Power, Saleh Mamman, until May 2.

Justice James Omotosho adjourned the matter after the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC)’s video evidence to counter the allegations by Mamman that his extra-judicial statement was not voluntarily made, was played in the open court.

Justice Omotosho had ordered that the video clip of the interview session conducted by the commission’s officials during their investigation be played in a trial-within-trial, following allegation that the ex-minister did not voluntarily make the statement.

The ex-minister had, through his lawyer, Femi Atteh, SAN, insisted that his statement tendered by the EFCC in the alleged corruption trial was not not made voluntarily.

The EFCC counsel, Rotimi Oyedepo, SAN, disagreed with Atteh’s submission.

The judge consequently ordered that the video clip be played in the open court to ascertain the veracity of the argument.

In the video on Monday, Mamman insisted that he could not write statement due to his ill-health.

Counsel to the EFCC, Abbas Muhammed, asked the EFCC investigator and a witness, Abubakar Kwaido, whether he read the statement of caution to Mamman before the session.

Kwaido confirmed that the cautionary statement was read to the defendant before the video recorded and the statement taken.

Justice Omotosho adjourned the matter until May 2 for continuation of trial.

Oyedepo, the lead prosecuting counsel, had, on Thursday, asked Kwaido whether he harassed Mamman or threatened him with detention but the witness responded in the negative.(NAN)
