What is NAGAFF Doing About the Expired Tenure of its National Executives?

Okey Nerus ( NAGAFF, NECOM Chairman)

Okey Nerus ( NAGAFF, NECOM Chairman)
What NAGAFF is doing about this matter is to make sure that we come to an agreeable conclusion, in no distance time you will get to hear from the NECOM executives, it is not that we do not know that Eugene Nweke's tenure has expired, NAGAFF which you all know is a family and we are not in a hurry for any changes, but definitely it will come some day, all we can say is that sooner or later you all will get to know what our plans are concerning elections. We are waiting for the time table to be released before giving out any information to the public, as you all know NECOM has been very busy with several elections and two things can not be done at the same time, it is a gradual process, when all elections both from the western, eastern, Port Harcourt zone are concluded, adequate measures will be put in place  and decision will be taken on that issue, but for now the time table has not been set so you all have to exercise patient.

George Okafor (NAGAFF, PTML)
The election will be held at our Annual General Meeting (AGM) or maybe it will be after the AGM which we are holding in Enugu by December. NAGAFF is a democratic association and we have towed the line of democracy with our last election, we just have to exercise patience with the national executives as they are putting in their best, we are not in a hurry, I believe everything is in order.

Ben Chukwukelu Nweke (NAGAFF, PTML Chapter)
The National President of NAGAFF, Eugene Nweke is a man who has played a significant role when it comes to the affairs of NAGAFF, he is a man who has brought in so much to the association, and for them not to be doing anything about his tenure which has expired, I think the reason is best known to them. For now we should exercise a little patience and watch what the outcome of the Annual General Meeting that will be taking place soon will be. I know this matter will be brought forward by the NEC chairman, NECOM and board of trustees at the AGM, all we are doing is to wait for other zonal chapters to finish their elections then we can come to a final conclusion on what to do with Eugene, if he should still remain on seat as President or to vote someone else.

Orji Dukurgbo (Secretary, PTML)
When the time comes we will sort out all our issues, but for now our president; Eugene Nweke is doing well, the executives are not disappointing, they are carrying everybody along, they are following the government's policy and making the industry become what it ought to be, but when election time comes, it will be from the headquarters. We have concluded election into chapter levels and they are all test-running, all we could do now is to wait patiently, I am sure it is going to be an election and not a selection. More so, the President is doing well, so what are we hurrying about? Let him continue and give us another good term, for now, nobody can be like the incumbent president, technically, educationally and so on, nobody can fit into his shoes for now.

Simon Olua (National Fin Sec. NAGAFF)
NAGAFF as a body will take its decision whenever it is ready to have an election, I believe it is an internal issue that will be coordinated by the national executives, for now, the chapter elections have not been concluded, it is after we conclude the chapters that we can talk of the headquarters, we still have about six chapters that are yet to hold their election; Onne, Calabar, Jeba, Kastina, Idi-Iroko, we must conclude all these elections before we can think of national executives. We are having our AGM by first week of December in Enugu where the issues will be thrashed out.

Rev Emmanuel Agubanze (NAGAFF Chairman, Lillypond)
NAGAFF has its own way of reacting to issues like this, you know the national president of NAGAFF, Eugene Nweke was not directly elected in that sense or by any members of NAGAFF, he was elected by the NEC which is what the constitution stated, this issue as far as I know will come up very soon when our Annual General Meeting is conducted. This is an issue that all committee, NECOM executives, and the PTF will come together and deliberate on properly. We are not in the best position to say if he should leave or to stay, I think he can decide for himself and you know NAGAFF has gone democratic and being  a democratised association, its takes time for things like this to be resolved,  but looking at several chapters who has finished conducting their elections, I know these will be the next thing they will look into, all we just need is a little more time.

Dikke Kalu ( NAGAFF secretary, Tin Can)
What I think NAGAFF is doing about this matter is that they are trying to finish up with other elections in different chapters, as you all know that several chapters just concluded their own elections, so, I believe an Annual General Meeting will be set by the NECOM Executives and the NEC board on how to handle that matter as it concerns the affairs of its members, it is not for us as NAGAFF members to make laws because Eugene was not elected directly by any member. So, until the board decides, it is then we can give adequate information on when next election will be conducted or when a new executive will be appointed. And again the national executive has really done well when it comes to the issue of handling the welfare of the association, but it is not for members like I said earlier, but for the  NECOM authorities to decide if Eugene Nweke should be given a second tenure or if someone should take his place, all we have to do for now is to keep our fingers crossed on what its outcome would be.

KNOW YOUR BODY PARTS: The Liver The liver is a vital organ located in the right upper abdomen, playing a crucial role in metabolism, detoxification, and digestion. It’s the largest solid organ in the body and is responsible for filtering blood, maintaining blood sugar levels, regulating clotting, and synthesizing essential proteins. The liver also stores energy, removes toxins, and produces bile, which aids in digestion Liver functions: · Metabolism and Detoxification: The liver processes nutrients from the blood, breaks down and balances them, and creates essential substances for the body. It detoxifies harmful substances like drugs and alcohol, converting them into less toxic forms for excretion. The liver plays a role in the metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. It stores glycogen (a form of glucose) and vitamins, releasing them when the body needs them. · Digestion: The liver produces bile, which is stored in the gallbladder and released into the small intestine to help digest fats. Bile also helps in the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. · Blood Regulation: The liver regulates blood sugar levels by storing and releasing glucose. It synthesizes clotting factors, which are essential for blood clotting. It removes old red blood cells and processes bilirubin, a byproduct of red blood cell breakdown. · Other Functions: The liver plays a role in immunity, helping to fight off infections. It produces proteins that are involved in the immune response. The liver also stores iron and other essential minerals. Frequently Asked Questions About The Liver · What are the first signs of a bad liver? The initial signs of liver problems can be vague and subtle, often including fatigue, nausea, and loss of appetite. As the liver’s condition worsens, more specific symptoms may emerge, such as jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), itchy skin, dark urine, and light-colored stools. Abdominal pain, especially in the upper right quadrant, can also indicate liver issues. · Where do you feel liver pain? Liver pain is typically felt in the upper right abdomen, just beneath the rib cage. It can manifest as a dull, throbbing pain, a stabbing sensation, or a general feeling of discomfort in that area. In some cases, liver pain might be felt as an ache in the right shoulder or back. · What does liver pain feel like? How liver pain feels can vary from person to person, depending on the cause. However, most people often develop one or more of the following symptoms: Dull, persistent aches in the upper abdomen A feeling of fullness or bloating Sharp, stabbing pains that come and go Tenderness when the upper abdomen is touched · What is the best way to cleanse your liver? If you haven’t been working out, start indulging in a regular exercise regime to allow the toxins to come out of your body. Yoga, going running, hitting the gym, or a simple sauna session can also prove effective. If you want a natural liver cleanse, sweating is the way to go. · How to know if the liver is swollen? What are the symptoms of an enlarged liver? You likely won’t notice an enlarged liver on your own. In some severe cases, you might notice a feeling of bloating or fullness in your belly or an ache in your upper right abdomen. · What is the best drink to flush your liver? Many citrus fruits, including lemon, can be added to water to help stimulate and flush out the liver. Lemons are high in nutrients like vitamin C and antioxidants
