No more Sheraton: 10 national conference committees now to meet at Nicon Luxury Hotel


Deliberations at the committee level of the national conference begin on Tuesday. 
The Chairman, Justice Idris Kutigi (rtd.), has announced a change of venue for some of the confab’s standing committees, via a statement by Mr Akpandem James, the conference’s Assistant Secretary on Media and Communications.
The statement said that committees 11 to 20, hitherto scheduled to sit at the Sheraton Hotels and Towers, would now hold their sessions at the NICON Luxury Hotel.
“The change in venue for the second set of committees became necessary because Sheraton will not be available for the number of days envisaged,’’ the statement said.
However committees one to 10 would hold their sessions at the National Judicial Institute (NJI), the official venue of the conference, as earlier announced.
Kutigi, in the statement, while apologising for the sudden change in venue, enjoined delegates to go straight to their respective venues as they resumed from the Easter break on Tuesday.
The committees one to 10 which will meet at the NJI include those of Devolution of Power, Political Restructuring and Forms of Government, National Security, Environment, and Politics and Governance.
The others are Law, Judiciary, Human Rights and Legal Reform, Social Sector, Transportation, Science Technology and Development, and Agriculture.
Similarly, committees 11 to 20 include Civil Society, Labour and Sports, Public Service, Political Parties and Electoral Matters, and Foreign Policy and Diaspora Matters.
Others are Land Tenure and National Boundaries, Economy, Trade and Investment, Energy, Religion, Public Finance and Revenue, and Immigration and Related Matters

With the body of a fox and the head of a woman, this bizarre creature manages to delight visitors more than any other animal in the zoo. Her witty conversation and fortune-telling talents make her an instant hit with any sort of crowd. Once you enter Karachi Zoo, it’s hard to miss Mumtaz Begum – the organizers announce their bizarre attraction on a megaphone. When you get inside Mumtaz Mahal, the building that houses her, all you can see at first is a fox’s hide placed on a table-like arrangement. Suddenly, a woman’s head appears out of nowhere, exactly where the fox’s head is supposed to be. The woman wears heavy make up with bright lipstick, and small children in the crowd are immediately captivated by her presence. Then she begins her story: “I was born like this in Africa 35 years ago, and I live on cake, j...

What are children turning into?

Smiling..... i was in my office this morning working on syndelsmiles a man just came in and started grumbling about how rude a young boy was to him, that was how the discussion started. with all different opinions of people about children of now a days. seriously something is wrong.... below are what i picked from the controversy.  Can you imagine that children’s behavior would become a real problem today! What has changed? Are they badly educated by their parents or are they exposed to many more difficulties resulting from the new way of life? This drastic transformation raises a lot of questions, and I think the most important question is: how should we raise our children in today’s world.

I was really involved in the family. Every Sunday, we went to church because that was the o...
