According to the Kano State Government, the state will receive infrastructure projects and water.

This information was provided in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria on Friday in Kano by Malam Garba Yusuf, the commissioner for water resources.

He claimed that the quick infrastructural development throughout the state and the banditry in the neighboring states were to blame for the increase in water demand.

He claims that while Kano's daily water demand was 4 million liters when the Challawa water treatment plant was built, it is now 200 million liters per day.

As you well know, water is a necessary component of life, and since this ministry is also in charge of irrigation, it essentially helps to increase food production.

People need to recognize that water is a necessary component of life and shouldn't be abused or overused, he said, adding that we should aim to make it a practice to fix damaged running taps.

Yusuf went on to say that the ministry's department of irrigation and dams was in charge of irrigation operations and essentially helped the state's food production.

He continued by saying that a committee had been formed to raise awareness so that people would be aware that water was for sale.

"The committee will inform the general public of the value of paying water bills to ensure a steady supply of water throughout the state.

We dug one well for them in Minjibir, but now there are four, and we've opened an account where they can save money, according to Yusuf.

Real life dragon’ found in Mongolia: Origins revealed - see video

A video purporting to be footage of a “real life dragon,” allegedly “caught” in the wild, has been doing the rounds on Twitter – and not for the first time. The present iteration of the viral video has picked up more than 160K likes on Twitter. Daily Loud shared it and encouraged their followers to “decide” if the supposed “dragon” is real or fake. On Reddit, people have already started joking that it’s the body of Arrax, Lucerys Velaryon’s late dragon from House Of The Dragon. Are ‘real life Mongolian dragons’…real No. Dragons – at least, dragons with long necks and long tails and wings – don’t exist in real life. But even with its unreality established, a question remains. It might not be a “real dragon,” but it is a real animal? Strange animals have washed up on beaches before, prompting confusion. One Reddit user suggested, perhaps sarcastically, that the video actually shows a “bear with mange.” They might not be serious, but they’re giving voice to a natural human instinct:...

In Enugu, NCC seizes an unlawful digital cable network worth N250 million. - Feed9ja

In order to serve as a warning to others in the industry, the Nigerian Copyright Commission (NCC) claimed it conducted a raid in Enugu and seized unlawful digital cable networks worth N250 million. The Real Summit Television studios, located in Nsukka, Enugu State, were sealed by the Commission on September 21. According to information acquired, the television channel reportedly stole the programming from other digital satellite transmitting stations like DSTV and Startimes. The Commission demobilized the station at Ugwuoye, Nsukka by taking away the devices needed to collect signals for onward transmission before sealing the station there. The manager, Mr. Daniel Anedo, had first been arrested by the Commission. The transmitter, decoders, inverters, and scramblers were among the devices and tools that were demobilized.

Nigerian pharmacists are leaving, says the chairman of the PSN - Feed9ja

The Osun state chapter of the Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria (PSN) raised concern over the recent wave of pharmacists leaving the nation as they celebrated World Pharmacists Day with their counterparts around the world. Responding to inquiries from journalists in Osogbo, the capital of Osun state, on Sunday, Professor Moses Akanmu, the state's PSN chairman, said that pharmacists from various professions today prefer to look for greener pastures abroad rather than practice in Nigeria. While bemoaning the recent surge in the production of phony pharmaceuticals, he revealed that the association would deworm 2,000 youngsters throughout the state's municipalities in honor of its 30th anniversary, which coincidentally happened to fall on the same day as Pharmacist Day internationally. "Many pharmacists are emigrating from the nation," he said. People are departing, including academic pharmacists, industrial pharmacists, hospital and administrative pharmacists, and commun...
