By

 FG needs to be more proactive, says ANPP
Kano – Thirty-one victims of Monday’s Kano suicide bomb-attack are being treated at the Murtala Muhammed Specialist Hospital in Kano, Dr Mansir Nagoda, Chief Medical Director (CMD) of the hospital, said.
Dr Mansir Nagoda said on Tuesday that the victims were admitted for various injuries including burns, burst abdomen and fracture.
“The victims are responding to treatment and they are being taken care of as directed by the state government,’’ he said.
Some of the victims thanked God for sparing their lives.
‘’There was a loud sound and the next thing I can remember was when I found myself in the hospital,’’ one of the victims, Musa Sabi’u said.
Sabi’u, who was injured in the head, thanked those responsible for bringing him to the hospital.
Meanwhile, more people continued to troop to the hospital in search of their relatives as the All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP), has called on the Federal Government to increase its intelligence gathering in order to effectively check the rate of insecurity in the country.
The call is is contained in a statement signed by the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Mr Emma Eneukwu, on Tuesday in Abuja.
“The ANPP received the news of the Monday bombing of a motorpark in Sabon Gari, Kano, by unidentified terrorists which killed scores of innocent Nigerians, with deep shock and sadness.
“Once again, the wicked act of a few elements of terror has further pushed our great country to a possible anarchy,” ANPP said.
The party condemned the barbaric act, its perpetrators, sponsors, and commiserated with friends and families of the death in the dastard act and wished the injured quick recovery.
According to the statement, the principal task of any government is to secure the lives and property of its citizens.
“It is high time our government faced the duty it owes every Nigerian squarely.”
The party called on the nation’s security agencies to leave no stone unturned in unravelling “this heinous crime against humanity”.
“It is crucial that every necessary measure be taken to defuse the prevalent atmosphere of hopelessness in the nation as precipitated by terror attack in Kano.
“It is now manifest that the forces of evil, nibbling at the fabrics of our corporate existence as a country, will go to any length, no matter how diabolical, to achieve their satanic objectives.”
ANPP enjoined Nigerians to resist the urge to despair “in such a time like this because that is exactly what these elements want to achieve”.
ANPP expressed optimism that Nigeria would soon surmount its present troubles. (NAN)

We looked at major developments, cultural trends, and global festivals to find the hottest places to travel around the world in 2013. There are vast untouched landscapes that offer incredible outdoor experiences, cities that are experiencing a cultural rebirth, and up-and-coming destinations that offer great deals and few tourists.

Samsung reportedly close to releasing Glass competitor — and Google’s involved

By
This one is definitely a rumor, but its source is reliable enough to warrant a little speculation. Analyst and blogger  Eldar Murtazin  tweeted a rather definite message this week that Samsung is “developing [its] own version of Google Glass. We will see it (probably) around April – May under Gear Glass brand.” Given that Google’s own version of Glass is not expected to hit the mass market until early 2014, Samsung’s Glass competitor could very well race Google’s to market. That might seem like a nightmare for Google, which has invested heavily in Glass and is no doubt planning for a strong event launch, but as was pointed out in a CNet article, the use of the word “Glass” implies an official partnership. Samsung is known for its aggressive branding and Google would likely raise legal concerns regardless, so it’s unlikely the brand Gear Glass would be used without a partnership. Does Google even want to sell Glass, or does it just want you wearing face-screens? ...
