Amazing !! Nigeria’s First Electric Light Rail Ready For Operation (Photos)

The Calabar electric light rail is finally ready for inauguration. Built by Ponet TFZE, the train with a cruising speed of about 40 kilometres per hour, has 12 cars – 10 passenger and two equipment cars.

The multi-billion Naira Calabar Light rail project, the first in Nigeria, would soon be inaugurated by President Muhammadu Buhari.

The 12-car monorail system, when fully operational, would use an Intamin P8 electric powered passenger shuttle train to convey passengers from Tinapa Resort, across Lake Tinapa to Calabar International Conference Centre (CICC).

The monorail would allow access to Studio Tinapa, Tinapa Shopping Centre and Tinapa waterpark as well as provide a quick alternative access to Summit Hills.

Each car is primed for seven to eight passengers all seated, while the train’s length, width and height are approximately 38,1.95 and 2.2 metres, respectively.

Mr Mba Mba, the station’s Electrical Engineer, said the light rail project was completed in December last year.

“Right now, the Calabar Monorail is ready for use pending inauguration by appropriate authorities.
“We have test-run the system and confirmed its readiness. Gov. Ben Ayade was here with his team to see for himself what is on ground.”

Governor Ben Ayade is doing everything to make sure the train lives up to expectation. God Bless sir.

[MUST READ] How To stop masturbation, 6 Helpful Ways.

The immense pleasure derived from frequent masturbation can be extremely addictive. However, this addiction can become an obsessive activity that interferes with daily living.

Furthermore, it may result in loss of s*x drive, depression, or even impotence. To prevent these potentially severe side effects, Date360ng.com reveals the six most effective ways to end chronic masturbation.

1. Distraction
When you get the urge to masturbate, quickly engage in an alternative activity. Whether you pick up a book or go to the movies with friends, participate in anything that will successfully distract you from your masturbatory desires.

2. Rubber Band
Place a rubber band around your wrist. Every time you get the urge to masturbate, flick the rubber band. This will eventually condition you to associate masturbation with the pain, thereby deterring you from the act. The mere thought of masturbation may even cease to cross your mind.

3. Help From Loved Ones
If you have a romantic partner, be open with them about your condition. This should remove any feelings of guilt or shame associated with chronic masturbation, as you will no longer have to hide a “dirty little secret” from your loved one.

4. Replace That Pleasure With A Different One
Find other pleasurable activities that bring you joy. Find an enjoyable hobby that requires your full attention. For example, if you enjoy art take a painting class.

5. Jogging
Jogging and other forms of exercise are a great way to take masturbation off your mind. Jogging will require your complete attention – from listening to your heartbeat to inhaling each new breath of fresh air. Masturbation will have no place on the forefront of your mind. So the more you engage in exercise, the less time you will have to think about masturbating. Eventually, you may be able to overcome your addiction.

6. Evaluate Your Life
Analyze your life. Determine what makes you happy and what does not. You may find that something stressful in your life is causing this chronic masturbation. Elucidating the underlying stress or will enable you to resolve it, ultimately allowing you to overcome the addiction.

WHAT MAKES LINDA IKEJI A SUCCESSFUL BLOGGER

Linda Ikeji as we all know is a successful blogger and is also an house hold name when it comes to blogging. Ask an average blogger why he/she went into blogging, they can hardly give you a concrete reason why they are into it. Most people (bloggers) just want to blog because that's like the order of the day or probably a friend told them to; which at the end they will just become tired and opt out of blogging.
  To become a successful blogger just like sister Linda, there are some things that one ought to know about her which contributed greatly to her (blogging) Success. 

1) HER EARLY BEGINNING :

 I will call this a perfect timing. She started at the early hours of blogging ( when blogging wasn't that known), she came into blogging 2006, this was the period when entertainment was just advancing to another level in Nigeria. At this period, there were no serious online entertainment blogs or competition, about a few such as BELLANAIJA and others. Starting her blog at that point in time meant she was in the market at the right time. Just as the entertainment industry began to grow, it was natural that Linda and other early bloggers had to grow along with the rising trend of the industry. This gave 'sister Linda' an edge over other new bloggers.

2) CONSISTENCY :  

This is a word that entails something being done continuously over a period of time. Despite the fact that Linda Ikeji came into blogging since 2006, she has never for once relented or stopped blogging even during the most difficult times in her life. When it comes to blogging, it is one thing to start a blog and it's another thing to keep updating it both day(s) and night(s) all year long, but she was able to do just both with the right motivation and equipment. As a young blogger, I have learnt alot from her and putting what she is doing into practise which's really helping.

3) THE RIGHT MOTIVATION :

 Just like I earlier said in the intro of this article, some bloggers are just into blogging business 'cause someone ( friends, family, enemies ) must have told them to go into it or some just went into it because of the sole reason of making quick money.
MY OPINION: YOU ARE LIKELY TO GIVE UP BEFORE YOU GET THERE...
Something different has to be the motivation for your blogging. In Sister Linda's case, she was motivated by the desire to establish a community, i.e. having a platform where people could read something interesting and make their comments known to the world. That was her sole motivation, which catapulted her to become the success story we are identifying with today. I want to be so sure that she had no idea to how successful she will be 10 years after.

4) FINDING THE RIGHT NICHE :

  This is somehow related to the 3rd point; though specific. Finding the right niche as a blogger will really help you last long as a blogger. As for Linda, she found her niche in entertainment news, "amebo" and its relatives. I could remember then when she started posting cool stories about celebrities which where recent and up-to-date thereby making people updated about what's going on in the entertainment sector. This in turn made people to consistently wanting to know what's on in that sector. When you find the right niche for your blog, you hardly get discouraged, because this is something you love doing and you do with ease. There are several niche such as ; MUSIC, ENTERTAINMENT, FASHION, SPORT, JOB, ETC. So just find what interest you the most and venture into doing it.
Examples of these blogs are Naijaloaded.com (music), Lindaikejisblog.com (Entertainment), Nairaland.com (Various Forum), inout9ja.blogspot.com (Music, how To's), Jobberman.com (Jobs), to mention but a few. These sites got their right niche which makes them successful.

5) GETTING THE RIGHT SOURCE : 

This is the part that basically keeps Linda Ikeji's blog ahead when it comes to blogging. She has trusted sources that are well updated in terms of entertainment news in and out of Nigeria. That is why most readers love her blog alot; she's current. When fresh entertainment gist is out, trust Linda's blog to be part of the top three sites to get the news known to the world, this tells alot about her source of information. Not like most of our newbies blogger that just copy and paste from any how source. Get a well trusted source and voilà ! you are good to go.

5 THINGS YOU NEED BEFORE YOU START A BLOG/SITE

1) COMPUTER(DESKTOP OR LAPTOP) :

 Having a personal system either laptop or desktop is really advisable to get. There are cheap and affordable laptops you can get there in the market. It's not cool enough to start a blog without your own computer. Am not saying you can't start a blog without having a system, but its more convenient and secure. Imagine using your friend's system to blog, you will have to log him out of his mail just to log in yours, of which in the long run he might get tired of you always using his system or logging him off. What if he doesn't remember his password, will he always love to reset it? Come to think of it, logging into your blog via someone else's system will pose a security threat to your blog the day you forget to log out, you have exposed your blog's back end, especially if it falls on the hand of someone that doesn't have an idea of XML or HTML.

2) REAL CONTENTS/ARTICLE :

 Just before you start a blog, it's advisable you have your own real contents or article, an article that has never been published by any one but you alone. This helps your blog alot especially for those of you that will love to apply for google Adsence. Contents and real article is one of the fundamentals google will look into before approving your Adsence account ( Content is key). You can just do some guess writing i.e. just guess a unique topic and write something great about it and post, it gives your new blog an edge over the " ctrl C / crtl V " blog team. It also makes your viewers or visitors have the impression that your blog is a legit site.   

3) GOOD AND AFFORDABLE DATA PLAN : 

With the rate at which network providers are competing against themselves, this has made the price of data plans low and affordable, compared to those days when data plans were extremely high and almost impossible to purchase especially for those still collecting allowance from dad and mum. Just get a good network provider that gives cheap data such as MTN ( #1000 for 1.5 Gig... etc), GlO( #1000 for 2 Gig... etc), AIRTEL( Also have their own unique data plans ) and the rest. This will reduce the rate of seldom post to blog and will keep you frequently online to move with the world.  


4) MODEM OR WI_FI ENABLED PHONE : 

Just like you have your personal laptop , you must have a modem or a phone that is hotspot ( Wi-Fi ) enabled. This will serve as your  router ( a device that forwards data packets between computer networks ). This is what connects you to the internet or just subscribe on your sim and switch on your hotspot to connect to your system.

NOTE : When your hotspot is enabled, don't forget to pass-word it, cause there are some people that are "faster than the fastest".


5) THE RIGHT NICHE : 

What makes Linda Ikeji a successful blogger? Knowing the right niche before starting a blog/site is essential, if you really want your blog to become successful. There are various niche from Jobs, Entertainment, Careers, How To's, Tutorials on various things and lots more. You have to know what suits you to blog about so as for you not to get tired of blogging. Inexperienced bloggers have the habit of leaving their newly created blog due to low views or just tired of typing, but if you are in the right niche, hardly will you get tired, 'cause you are doing it as fun. When  sister Linda bought her house worth over 500million naira, google.com recorded millions of blog accounts opened and just after that they were all inactive. Those people just opened the blog because they heard Linda bought the house as a blogger. #FollowFOLLOWnoDEYpay#
