AT HEAVEN'S DOOR

-

   


 Something is not right,

            There upstairs,

             Maybe the wrong

             Is down here.


     I have been knocking,

            At the door

            Since I learned 

            How to pray.


          There is only silence

            Where are servants?

             I mean the angels.


         I don't see them.

             Peering through curtains

             To see who is calling,

             When the master at

              Last "come in"


           Will they let me in?

              Through the front

              Or at the back entrance?

              Figure it out,where

              Your short comings are.


Temang Chinplang.

 By Saeed Kamalu Bako The history of  Wase dated to 1817 starting from the coming of Madaki Hassan the son of Giwa.

He however later migrated to Wuro-Mayo in Bauchi Emirate where he continued propagating Islam. In Wuro-Mayo, Hardo Bala gave his daughter (Pendo) hand in marriage to Giwa.

Industrialization: The Path To Economic Development

 Ali Muhammad Ali  Industrialisation is logically seen as the  application of scientific knowledge to man's economic, agricultural, and other wealth-generating activities. In other words, it is the conversion of the 'know-why' of science into `know-how' for industry; it is the practical application of man's inventiveness in the improvement of his well-being and the increase of his wealth. Industrialisation however depends on four essentials: the right idea, the right method of putting it into effect, the right moment in time, and availability of the right materials. Machine invented with the help of scientific know- how are used for quicker and easier production of wealth. Therefore, it is a commonsense to say that the economic development and progress of a country  dependents on its industrial growth. There was a time when countries depend entirely on agriculture. Before the Industrial Revolution, Great Britain too was an agricultural country. Had it not been for t...
