President Blames Democrats For Failure of Bill to Replace Obamacare

A cross section of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, faithfuls, have set August 1, as the date for the immediate recall of Senate President, Bukola Saraki.

The statement signed by a cross section of APC Chieftains as obtained by Sahara Reporters reads:

“The Kwara State Publicity Secretary of All Progressive Congress (APC), Mr. Sulyman Buhari, issued an empty statement on 14th July, 2017, where he was beating his none existing chest, over our call for the recall of the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki.

“The inconsequential APC Spokesman in Kwara State, who is not even known in his own ward in Ilorin, nor has the capacity to influence anyone, boast that “Kwara Must Change” can never secure the required signatures against the Senate President, adding that, he would resign his position if such happen, but we do not consider such an irrelevant person as worthy of our attention.

“We would like to state that, the good people of Ilorin that are ready for the recall exercise, have no business with an inconsequential Publicity Secretary. All the people are demanding for is adequate representation, which the Senate President has failed to offer, hence the decision to activate the constitutional process of recall.

“While the APC Publicity Secretary is busy making empty boast on media, some of the Legislative Aides of the Senate President, have dolled huge sum of money to launch campaign of calumny against the leadership of our group, to discredit our personalities, but unknown to them, what they are doing is not only making the recall process more widely known and accepted by the people, it has also allowed more supporters and well wishers, even among their own followers have access to us, to pledge their support to the recall process. We have to thank them for
helping us and the people, as we consider their campaign of calumny, an unintended blessing in disguise.

“Most importantly, we must warn one particular Legislative Aide of the Senate President, Mr. Olaitan Obalowu, who called to threaten violence over the recall of Senator Bukola Saraki. Olaitan is a Legislative Aide to Dr. Saraki, and a former Coordinator of Muhammed Dele Belgore Solidarity Group.

“We wonder what they are scared of, when they have described the recall as an exercise in futility.

“Let it be clear that the process of recall has been initiated. It is a constitutional process that can not be stopped by any threat. It will take place as announced and shall succeed insha Allah.

“If the Senate President is as popular as he thinks, there is nothing to worry about, because we cannot recall the Senate President without the people. This is simply a test of popularity.

“We maintain that nobody can threaten us, because we are determined to carry on with this process and get it to a logical conclusion. As law abiding citizens of Nigeria and employer of the Senate President, the
people reserve the right to hire and fire him at any time we consider his services no longer useful. This is the power we intend to exercise without fear or favor.

“We therefore, call on the Senate President, to caution his overzealous Aides, and warn them to desist from unwarranted threat, because should anything happen to any of our members; we would hold him directly responsible.

“Finally, we reiterate that the signing of the recall register shall hold as announced on August 1, 2017, and we urge all electorates in Kwara Central, to troop out en-mass to sign the register, so as to effect the recall.”

10 Non-African Countries You Can Visit Without A Visa

The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, has reacted to criticisms trailing his recent pronouncement on steps being taken by the government to discourage the production of Nigerian movies and music outside the country.
In a chat with PREMIUM TIMES, on Sunday, he said it was to tackle the exploitation of perceived loopholes in the Nigerian Broadcasting Code, NBC.

“The NBC code today as it stands has been exploited and not defined and that’s why movies being directed by Nigerians with Nigerian actors, actresses can be shot in South Africa and then brought back to be consumed in Nigeria.
All we are saying is that we are going to amend the code in a manner that it will not be possible for you to exploit any loophole there to go and shoot outside Nigeria film, music or programs that are meant to be consumed in Nigeria,” Mr. Mohammed said.
Mr. Mohammed on Saturday said the government had taken steps to get the Nigeria Broadcasting Code, NBC to put an end to the trend of producing Nigerian music, movie and programs abroad.
This however drew criticism from Nigerians who asked the minister to address the issue of government officials going for medical treatment abroad first before sanitising the movie industry.
However, the minister said the government had no ill-feeling in its move to dissuade Nigerian films from being produced abroad.

“It is not directed at any particular incident, every country should respect the local industry of other countries.
For example, in Ghana they introduced a law today that demands visiting actors to pay a thousand dollars to the government coffers while visiting directors and producers pay 5,000 dollars.
We must create an enabling environment and also generate revenue from our creative industry. The argument is simple, when you go to shoot a film offshore, you use the work force of that country to develop the capacity of that country and you improve the economy of that country and that is what we are trying to do here.”

Just because your workout’s done doesn’t mean your work is over. Half the battle of a results-driven fitness routine takes place after you rack your weights and hang up your running shoes.
You see, your standard 45-minute training regimen isn’t when changes actually take place (at least, not directly). As you exercise, you place stress on your body’s systems — your lungs, heart and muscles all cry out, “Holy moly, what are you doing to me?” as you work to get over that hill or through your final set.

This stress is actually damage (which sounds terrible, I know), but as your body repairs the microtears you’ve incurred in your muscles, it builds itself back better and stronger, more capable of handling the same level of stress the next time you hit the gym. It’s this 24- to 48-hour recovery period post-workout when your body experiences actual changes. Make sure you’re not selling your workouts short by skimping out on (arguably) the most important part — recovery.

1. Stretch
Flexibility is one of the five components of fitness and should therefore be considered every bit as important as your “main” workout. By adding a five- to 10-minute full-body stretching routine to the end of your workout, you’ll take advantage of your already warm, pliable muscles, making it easier to increase flexibility and maintain or improve range of motion.

In turn, when you’re able to move your joints through their full range of motion, you’ll be less likely to experience an injury or chronic pain, two vital factors for maintaining a consistent workout regimen.

2. Foam roll
Everyone should want to foam roll, just because it feels so stinkin’ good, but it’s especially important after a workout because it’s like a low-cost sports massage. By rolling across a foam roller, you can target the muscles you’ve just worked, increasing blood flow and decreasing the likelihood of developing myofascial adhesions — potentially painful areas where connective tissue becomes “glued” together and limits or alters a muscle’s ability to contract. As Sarah Jane Parker, an ACSM-certified personal trainer explains, “Foam rolling keeps your fascia and tendons flexible and elastic.” Like stretching, this helps keep you healthy and capable of continuing to see results.

3. Shower off
Or if you can’t make time for a full shower, at least take a couple of seconds to towel off with a wet wipe. If you skip the wash-down and allow your sweat to dry on your skin, you’re basically turning your body into a petri dish for bacterial growth (more than it already is). This is especially concerning if you experienced any chafing during your workout (around your sports bra and between your thighs are the primary culprits), because even microtears of the skin can leave you open to staph infections and other bacterial illnesses.

4. Rehydrate
If your workout involved heavy breathing and buckets of sweat (or even if it didn’t), you need to grab a bottle of H2O to rehydrate after your sweat sesh. Water is the medium in which all your body’s processes take place. If you don’t drink water post-workout, your metabolism won’t work at full capacity, and you’re bound to feel sluggish and fog-brained.

Most college and pro athletes aren’t even allowed to participate in their next practice if they fail to rehydrate properly after a workout. If you return to exercise while still dehydrated, it can leave you open to heat-related illness and potential injury, not to mention poor performance.

5. Eat a snack
Ladies, if you forget everything else I’m telling you now, remember this: A post-workout snack is beyond important when it comes to exercise recovery and muscular development. (And no, I’m not talking about developing big, bulky muscles — just getting those svelte, strong arms you’ve been craving.)

Consuming a post-workout snack within 60 minutes of your fitness routine helps restore muscle glycogen — the source of energy your body taps into when exercising — essentially helping you to recover for your next workout. At the same time, a well-planned snack can put you into a state of positive nitrogen balance, which is the optimal state to grow muscle.

The key here is to make sure you’re consuming a snack that delivers a balance of carbohydrates and complete proteins to ensure you’re getting the right allotment of amino acids for muscle repair and growth. A few possible snacks include:

A big glass of chocolate milk
A bowl of cereal with milk or soy milk
Celery sticks or an apple with peanut butter
Yogurt mixed with berries and nuts (or you could grab a Yoplait Plentí Greek Yogurt — it comes with whole grain oats, flax and pumpkin seeds already mixed in)
Half a whole-wheat pita filled with tuna salad

6. Compress
Go ahead and throw on those compression leggings after a tough workout. While they may not be the most effective way to recover from exercise, studies have shown that they’re a more effective recovery method than passive rest, not to mention that wearing compression garments post-exercise can reduce delayed onset muscle soreness, which in my book makes them pretty cool.

7. Get some rest
Between the sheets is where the magic happens. Rest and recovery literally take place while you’re resting. During sleep, your body is able to reset itself, engage in muscular repair and assimilate new experiences to enhance neural pathways for future bouts of exercise. Skimping on sleep after a workout is like paying for a full burrito and being OK with the restaurant serving you half. No one should ever be OK with half a burrito.
