Hey Al, what's going on? Isn't it wonderful? This gentleman here with the gold report right before the market fell apart ended up with TAAF. We had a 98% gain in the year. And I mean, we weren't 99% proof like Irish whiskey, but we had a good gain there. You always told us to do what we feel comfortable with. And if I lose a little bit of money on the table, I will. But I know that I just pocketed $8,000 or $9,000 in two weeks. That's a beautiful thing, man. Now, Tom O'Brien. Welcome folks, this is Jacob Shoup filling in for Tom O'Brien today. He will be back tomorrow. Let's take a look at everything. We are up modestly today. Yes, trading about 0.64%. Russell Futures trading at about 0.69%. NQ about 0.76. YM trading at 0.68% as well. The gold contracts staying pretty solid here at 1984. We had that big run up last week and earlier this month it was pretty fantastic from gold. Silver at 2310. Copper Futures at 0.363. This metal has been having a hard time recently. And we'll talk just a little bit about that. I do think on the long term, we'll see some movement in it. But as it stands now currently, I think in the short term and really in the next few years, it's still going to be kind of a struggling metal here. We have the LightSweed Crude Futures trading at about 0.8364 down about 2.16% today. Everything that's going on in Gaza and Israel is putting people kind of on edge with that. Then of course, we have the Brand Crude that can load up trading about down 2% today. Let's take a look here at Tesla. We'll talk a little bit about them. They had a big sell off last week from 2.65 all the way down to just above 200 and we're trading at 2.15 right now. Steel Dynamics reaching that kind of support zone at 1.01 81, we have the dollar at 1.0627. That's staying pretty constant in that 1.06 area as well. Hoping for a breakdown below the 1.05 to 1.04 but we're not getting that. So on the long term, that's something to keep in mind if you're in the market in general, especially with gold as well. QQQ trading at 3.58 Google at 1.39 Meta at 3.12. So Meta is actually being sued by a few US states. Let me see if I can pull up this story real quick. Essentially, some of the US states are accusing Meta of basically designing an algorithm that is very addictive in nature is designed to. They're not doing a good enough job of keeping children off of the platform and this is causing depression, anxiety and insomnia in children. And I will say too, I wasn't on, I don't really use social media but I did recently create an Instagram account just so I could save some pictures on there that I wanted to keep for the long term and just keep up with some of my friends that don't live in the state. I've been on in two years and getting back on there, I mean, there's plenty of accounts on there that obviously look like they are owned by children and the content that they're consuming and what they're saying is insane. I mean, being like 15, some of this stuff I had never even considered. And there seems like there really is, you can look on TikTok as well because a lot of young folk are on there as well. And the mental illness is rampant on that. So it's pretty intense. This is dozens of US states are suing Meta platforms. Let me pull it up here. And it's Instagram unit accusing them of contributing to a youth mental health crisis through the addictive nature of their social media platforms. And a complaint filed in Oakland, California on Tuesday, 33 states, including California and Illinois so that Meta, which operates Facebook, has misled the public about substantial dangers of its platform and knowingly induced young children and teenagers into addictive and compulsive social media use. It's pretty intense guys. I mean, there is even, I was talking with someone, they're asking about a TikTok, Tiger Financial News Network is on TikTok. If you guys wanna check that out, we also have our shorts on YouTube, but that's about where I'm gonna interface with TikTok personally. But there were kids developing like Tourette's tics from it. And what I mean is they were, it's called Tourette's talk, right? And it's just individuals who suffer from this. They're talking about kind of the nature of the disease. And it saw a lot of young folks starting to emulate them, right? I don't think we're fully aware of the psychology of young folk at this point. And that's gonna change, I think, in the next coming years, especially since we're so interconnected with social media and so much content that prior wasn't really in the public discourse is now being put on there. And I think we're seeing a big effect with that. You know, as to how this is really gonna impact meta, there's always government kind of looks into these guys. There's obviously a lot of citizens who form groups that talk about this. Nothing ever really changes. I've spoken about it a little bit before, the kind of sketchy territory we get into when we have some of these older folks in Congress who just aren't familiar with how tech works, right? And they ask these questions, which are then kind of translated in media as like ignorant questions. But in reality, a lot of them are actually pretty valid. But the problem is, is the congressmen don't really know how to respond to some of the answers from some of these executives. This causes a major issue. So I don't see any legislature being passed. Of course, naturally, parents should be more in control about what kids look at, so on and so forth. But this is a financial channel. And so we'll get off this topic now. But I just wanted to bring that to everyone's attention that now we have 33 states are suing meta. We'll take a look. We have a lot of earnings tomorrow here. We have Microsoft, we have Alphabet, HSBC, Visa, and Coca-Cola. We can take a look at Coca-Cola. They have done, looks like they're gonna do really well. It can be just one second. KO, that's what it is. So they're up about 3.18 today. It's raised their full year revenue forecast Tuesday after a stronger than expected third quarter. Now we expect that organic revenue will be up about 10% to 11% for the year. That's up eight, excuse me, that's up from 8% to 9% guidance, co-counts at the end of the second quarter. They expect earnings adjusted for currency variations will grow about 13 to 14%, which is pretty stellar for them. The shares obviously rose about 3%. You've had a pretty stark decline starting in July. Instead of global case volumes rose 2% for July, September period, coffee sales saw the strongest growth as demand grew in the United Kingdom and China. Coca-Cola, zero sugar sales were up 3% on growing demand in Latin America and North America. Of course, Latin America also suffers from extreme obesity crises just like the US. I think Mexico is now in most overweight. Country in the world. So we're gonna see a big movement towards diet kind of drinks like that. Folks, stay tuned, we'll be right back. We're gonna have Basil Chapman on, which is always great. He's gonna give us a little guidance about what's going on in the market. Folks, stay tuned.

I certainly can hear you, Jacob, sounding very good. Yeah, how are you doing? Was your trip good and all that? It was very good. Thank you. Awesome. It was always good to be back home and in the office and not having any technical problems with having everything run smoothly. I can imagine. Well, awesome. Well, Basil, what are we looking at today? So I'm going to start off with the dollar just for the moment. I wanted to show you, first of all, for subscribers, we've been along the dollar actually since 2018 all the way up, and then it came back. Our stop held and we still hold it long. And what I've been looking at is I'm just going to use this particular chart right here. This shows you, I've got the right one. Yes, this shows you the daily chart of the dollar. And when this green line, which is the nine-period exponential moving averages, average crosses over the 14 and goes green, that's very positive. And look, since the moment it turned up, July the 31st of this year, it was in the 101s, it's gone higher. It did this, I did this left-side, right-side price time match here and went to that, but what I'm really looking at right now is that even with these dips, that nine-period moving average, this morning early when I was doing my newsletter, there was a little s. And that little s shows like it did right here when it turns pink. When it turns pink, it means the nine-period moving average went under the 14. And yet as the market started, it went green and stayed green ever since and the dollar was at 106.27, up 0.65. So I have a lot of, I give a lot of credence to this particular one indicator, I call it the indicator of last resort because it takes its time and when it finally turns, it's usually pretty meaningful if it stays that way for about three or four bars. Doesn't matter what time frame. So in this particular context, I wanted to show you something else. In the weekly charts, I in D-E-U, in the weekly charts, I'm gonna move this over to weekly chart, there it is, click. The Dow has been, the nine has been pink. And so we went short right here, August the first right at the top of this recent move and we remained short. We did have a three times short. We actually had a three times long position. We switched it on Friday because it looked like the market was going to make a pattern that I called the dreaded H. I'll show you right here. I go to the Dow chart. This is the daily chart on the left. So it was like that. And I thought, oh, this is that part where it rolls very sharply to the low to test the left side low, which would be 32,846. So we went short, held the short and this morning we got out of the short where we took profits before we took completely out. And the reason is there's a chance, especially now that we're looking at GE, these stocks that have been hammered lately, having a very good session. If you're looking at triple M, which is, I mean, three M is just everything's gone wrong. Having a nice session day up five visa, the same thing. Just recently had a very sharp pullback, having a good, these are all earnings reports, even Raytheon, which really, I mean, look at this chart up in the 109 area goes all the way down to 60 and then had good earnings report today. So the way I was looking at it is if these really strong laggards start to find some kind of support and we're about to get Google. I have a difficult time calling these by their changed names, Facebook and Alphabet and all that, I like the original names. So, I mean, Google comes out and Google is holding so well. It looks to me like it could have, it could have a nice pop. Microsoft has a fantastic company which has remade itself after 2000, the year 2000 when it was the leader, it became a failure, it just dropped huge and now look at it, it's up almost near the all-time highs. So we're looking at these, if these results come out, it's going to mean that any selling pressure that we see now is starting to be alleviated by some good earnings and that I think is very important. So just to kind of refresh, I just wanted to show you the charts here. So this pattern I always look at which is the arch formation you can see in the weekly chart, as I said, the nine cross negative, the nine period moving average. I respect that, but we have not yet taken out the left side low of 32,848. We did in the S&P and it's fascinating, each timeframe look S&P took out the left side low having a nice bounce today, but that weekly also went to the nine period moving average, so I have a trend line here that makes it really important that the 4,200 level holds this week on any bad news. But I'm starting to think that a major part of the selling pressure that I've been looking at for quite some time, and as I say, using one particular tool, the Unbalanced Volume, we got that short right there, 35,679 in the August the 1st. That was the high of the Dow, most recent high, yearly high that it's made. And we also went short the S&H's two days later, and they've been coming down, and they've also seen the S&H's, the Van Agde Semiconductor ETF, the nine period moving averages cross negative. So in sum, what we're looking at is there's been selling pressure, some of it has been sideways, because I used to look at the market three ways, it's either sharply down or sharply higher, or it's sideways, so either using time, using price, or using time and price. And some of these charts and some of the indexes have used time and price, but you can see the semiconductor, which I consider to be really important. It's the semi, the chips are like the oil of the 1900s. We need it in everything, so that's really important. And the other thing is crude oil is pulling back, but we still have uranium stock, and it seems to me if energy rotates, we have a stock called uranium, there it is, UEC is the symbol, uranium energy, we have it in $3.60 area, it made a new recovery height today of 583. And it's just saying this whole rotation through the different sectors and the different stocks. So in this particular instance, it might be that uranium is, if oil does pull back a bit, then one of the alternative energy sources, uranium at this point is acting quite well. So I'm looking at the market saying, these are the conditions we have, the Dow needs to clear to be able to change direction. It really needs to get to the 34,100, it's just 1,000 points from here. But in the meantime, it could quite easily bounce into the 33,000, 33,000, I'd say 400 level. And then we'll see, because this pattern very often, if it holds the left side low, then becomes an H, lowercase H that goes to a lowercase M pattern. So, and even we can see in gold because the gold chart is holding very well, but after a spectacular run to the upside, this week is going to be very important to see, is this kind of a one-off? And then because the Middle East sort of, maybe it calms down just a little bit, maybe gold, which is the currency of fear, starts to pull back a little bit. I'm watching this very closely because there's a relationship to Middle East gold and fear. So at this particular point, the gold is holding pretty well, I'm watching it very closely. Yeah, I think we'll all be watching gold very closely as well. And Basil, again, I love looking at the semiconductors as a barometer for everything else running. I think that's super insightful and I've been thinking about that like just by myself anyway. So, thanks for turning us all into that. And guys, you can go to TFNN.com.

Welcome back, folks, and yeah, we actually have Tim Ordonline before we get to him just real quick, taking a look at Raytheon, and I actually invest in Raytheon, and I like the company, but what had happened here, I think we went over this when I filled in sometime in July, but basically a defect was found in one of their turbines, their jet engine for airliners. And this really just started a steep decline in Raytheon. So we'll see if these guys can get back up. I mean, this was such a sweet level to have it at, it's 102, but obviously this is some immense volume to get back over that hill with, so I'll have to wait to see if they can kind of, you know, pivot away from that defect in their jet engines. Anyways, we are with Tim Ord today. Tim, can you hear me? I sure can. How are you doing? I'm currently on. You doing all right? Oh. Can you hear me? Yep, yep, I'm doing fine. I'm here, so. Perfect. Yeah, let's crack into this. I was taking a look at some of the charts on the break and I'm really looking forward to hear what you have to say about these, so. All right, we can start on chart one. We presented this in the past. It's actually one of the reasons why I got long when everyone kind of was buried, I think it was back in April or May. This indicator was giving a bump. First, I actually tell you why it is. It's basically, the middle window is the VVIX, which is a VIX for the VIX and the slash VIX, which is the VIX, which is the fear index. And this indicator is kind of a leading indicator. It gives you good clues what the market's gonna do. It shows up best at around reversals in the market, both up and down. And I pointed out previous times this chart goes back quite a ways, I think back to mid to about 2018. And when the S&P goes up, a lot of times this indicator starts going down, warning that top is not too far off. And I may outline those in red arrows where they occurred. And right now, we've been going down here. We're actually testing the late September, early October lows right now. And Mark's rallying up a little bit here, but I want to point out on the right side of the chart is a blown up of what's going on. Actually, if you flip to page two, it kind of gives you a better view of it, or chapter two, or a chart two rather on page two. Kind of shows you what happened at the last high of July. This July where Mark was going up, this indicator was going down. Now we've got something the opposite. We've got the market pretty much going down, making lower lows where this indicator so far is making higher lows. So it gives you a warning, advanced warning. It doesn't say that the bottom's in, but that's safe, you're approaching the bottom. So this chart, let's see what goes back to what Mark's there, if you look at the Mark's low, that blue box, the market was making lower lows, this indicator went sideways. Then again, the July high, the SMBs were going up, this was going down. So now we've got back to the blue box again, we've got a positive divergence. So there's something developing here pretty close, maybe this week, maybe next week. But what I'm really looking for is on chart three. So we've got a divergence, a bullish diverges in the VVI-XIVX ratio. But you need really a lot, and actually that indicator is a fear indicator. It's the reason why I kind of lean that way. Fear only happens at bottoms or panic only happens at bottoms, tops are a little bit more difficult. But this indicator is another fear indicator which is the 10 day arms, which is the second window up from the bottom. And when this indicator gets around 0.2 or higher, you got panic in the market. And a lot of times you're approaching a low or at the low. We had that first low, we had back in late September or October, that's the shaded pink areas, but at times when the trend is up of 1.2 or higher, we had that back in the September, early October low. And right now I got kind of a blue shaded area. It says that we're coming in at like 0.91, which is not bullish at all. So that tells me the market's not, you know, though we're testing the previous lows here, we don't have enough panic, panic creates energy and we don't have enough energy to really pop off this low yet. So, but you do have a bullish divergence on the VVI exavix ratio, but not enough panic in the markets according to the trend readings to just for the low would begin right now. So maybe we're going a little fast here, but let's flip to chart four. Right here? Okay, chart four. Okay, I wrote, the blue lettering is when the trend reached panic levels and the ticks reached panic levels. And I recorded all those panic levels, what day they occurred there. And back at the late September, early October low, we had panic and then trends and ticks, I got them labeled there. Market rallied up, we didn't get go, didn't get, we didn't have enough strength, continued strength to actually go higher. So we're coming back down, retesting the lows. Well, the market was down five days in a row going into Monday. The market's down five days, this is a quantitative analysis, but if the market's down five days in a row, the market will be lower within five days, 83% of the time. And that's just dates back for about, I think it was five or 10 years, I forgot how it was, but there's quite a bit of statistics studies done on this. So even though we hit a low, we bounced up, that's not the final low. So I'm thinking we're gonna go back down and test the recent low we had here on Monday, if not break it a little bit. And the bottom window is a 10-day trend. Well, the 10-day trend needs to get up to around 1.2 or higher. So I'm thinking what's gonna happen here is the market's gonna fall back down, if not this week, probably next week. And it's probably gonna create a lot of panic and ticks and trend. And that's gonna push the trend up to 1.2 or higher. And that'll be the signal, finally, to get going to the upside. You know, that's a lot of ifs, ands, or buts. But if you look at today's volume, right now we've got virtually no volume going on this rally. And that's kind of a clue that didn't have enough strength to get going to the upside. So we're gonna fall back. How much we're gonna fall back? I don't know. Usually, when you're afraid to pull the trigger on a trade, it's usually the best trade you make. And so I'm thinking for this week's out or late this week or early next week, we're probably gonna fall back. And it's gonna be all the bad news about something.  It could be bad news about that. Not sure what the trigger's gonna be, but it always seems to be some sort of news announcement that blows. And that's when the trend really pops up. You may see a 1.5, maybe two or three trend on a close. And that'll be my trigger. If that happens, probably end up with a buy signal. But I think we're close to a low, according to the BVIX VIX ratio. But we need the 10-day trend to pop up there at a 1.2. If that happens, then I'm probably back on a buy signal. Right on, yeah. Just waiting for that juice to get back up there. Good stuff, well Tim, please stay tuned. We still have some charts to go over if we're really enjoying it.

Awesome. So I think we were just looking at the 10-day trend in relation to the SPI as chart four. So what else are we looking at today? Do you have any questions about the first four charts or if not, we can move on. No, yeah, I think that was explained very well. I'm ready to move on for it. All right, let's go to chart five. Perfect. We're looking at GDX here. Yeah, it's a GDX chart. And GDX is kind of like a different animal compared to the S&Ps. S&Ps kind of work off of panic and euphoria type indicators. And where GDX, I mean, if you get panic and GDX, it could still move lower. And I never really found a good indicator to really signal a bottom far as panic indicators. So I kind of went a different direction over the years to figure out what works best. And what seems to work best is the up-down volume, advanced client type indicators. So it kind of measures the internal strength or weaknesses that GDX has. And this chart number five, it only goes back about a year or whatever. And the blue areas are times, actually I should tell you what the bottom two indicators are. The bottom indicator is the 18-day average up-down volume, or is that the, yeah, it's the up-down volume, it's the 18-day average of the up-down volume, and next window higher is the 18-day average of the advanced client. So when these two indicators are above minus 10, and that's when I shared in blue the markets in an uptrend, when these two indicators are below minus 10, the markets in the downtrend. So over the last basically year, it shows the times of his up-trends and downtrends. And both these indicators work pretty well, defining divergence. In other words, when the S&P's is making lower lows and those two indicators are making higher lows, if you look at the bottom back in March, you know, the GDX has fallen down, made a lower low, and both those indicators made higher lows, that's circled in red. And going into a top of about April, May there, GDX is making higher highs, and both those indicators are making a lower highs. So let's get over to what we are at the current timeframe, which is basically starts in about September. The market, I was pretty bullish in August, and the market still fell back, but both those indicators made a circled in red, and I noticed, noted with the red arrows that the market was making, both indicators were making higher highs and higher lows, as GDX was pretty much working a little bit lower low. And that's in the past as a bullish divergence, but the market still went down, I think it's just kind of a shakeout type decline, but both indicators, as we're talking, made this early in the day, as long as they both above, remain above minus 10, the uptrend's intact. And so far, there's no divergence. Actually, if you look on the GDX chart, we're pretty much matching the previous highs we had in the September period there up around that 30 range. And both indicators are still making higher highs and on both those indicators. So that's a positive divergence. So even though we're retracing our minorly, at the moment though, I don't see any top, if both those indicators were actually falling back, approaching minus 10, I'd be a little bit more worried, but so far that's not happening. So even on a short term basis, we've got a minor consolidation, but this consolidation is probably, my opinion, a halfway point of the next move up. The reason why I say that, we can flip to chart number six. All right. And so the previous chart was a daily chart kind of looks at the short-term moves. And this chart, it looks at the bigger moves. It's a weekly chart. And this chart goes back to actually beginning of 2022.  And the bottom window is the cumulative, weekly advanced decline. And the next window up is the cumulative up-down volume indicators. And I've tried working on this for a while, that there was something there, it can never figure out why, until I put Bollinger Bands to it. And what seems to really work well, when both those indicators close above the mid-Bollinger Band, it's a little bit late on the buy, a little bit late on the sell, but it gets you in the main trend. That's what I was kind of looking for in the weekly time frames, because I got shorter-term indicators. They work pretty well getting in the short-term time, but you don't know if you're catching a big trend or not. It may be just a short-term trend, then the market may fall back again. Well, this catches the trend. You know, most of these times when a signal is generated, they're usually generated anywhere from two to six months trends. And if you notice to the right here, we closed above the mid-Bollinger Band on both indicators last week. Now, the market went up for three weeks before that triggered that indicator, but since now we're above both the mid-Bollinger Band, it's, yes, at least we got two months to go here on this rally and possibly six months, which is basically next what the March-April time frame don't know how far that's out, but it's a multi, it's usually a multi-month indicator. So we got something on a bigger time frame, at least so far, is signal here. So how big is the rise? As long as both those indicators remain above their mid-Bollinger Band, they could go on for a while. And matter of fact, the last time they gave a sell was back in April of this year, and that's the last red line, and it hasn't turned bullish just until now. So April until October was at six months. So it declined for six months, got that six month decline, and now it may catch a six month, I don't know, at least two months advance. So our short-term basis, the previous chart looks bullish, our mid-term basis, the bigger trend looks bullish. So how high is high, we'll have to wait and see. Right, and I wanna ask on, oh, sorry, go ahead and Tim, I'm sorry. No, I'm done, go ahead. I was gonna ask on chart five, I like this, look at it, the closer you approach this kind of 10 line here, right? Obviously, the more nervous you should get on a trend reversal. Is there, obviously we're gonna have a little dip right here based on this chart, right? How many consecutive days, I guess, of approaching this 10 line here would make you nervous? Is that question makes sense? No, the minus 10 line, do you mean? Yes, yes. All right, well, we're a long ways from it, I guess. And normally a lot of times that, that not always, but a lot of times that, so far, both markets, the up-down, volume advance kind of indicators are not falling back. I mean, they're holding pretty steady at the recent high, so you're not seeing a pullback. Yes, that tells me that we're probably, even though the markets fell back here, GDX has fell back, both of those indicators are not falling back, showing strength, but they just start, approach minus 10, chances are, if they're approaching minus 10, they're gonna go through minus 10. Right on. That's not happening here, so I'm thinking you could actually buy here, and I think you'd be okay. Awesome, Tim, thank you so much for joining us, guys.

He is always, always a great time on this show here. Take a look at Spotify right now. They're coming back a little bit, which is positive for the company. So they had this big run-up, essentially what happened about this time and a little bit in the past as well is they had dumped a ton of money into trying to make Spotify like the platform for podcasts, right? They spent billions of dollars on this, all right? I think they paid Joe Rogan almost a billion himself just to move everything to their platform and then they have a few other heavy hitters we'll have to see in the long term if people start going to Spotify right for their podcasts. I think the major issue here and what this will shake out to be looking at this right is gonna be which platforms have the least amount of censorship, right? So YouTube is getting bad for a lot of podcasters, right? They have to not talk about something or if they do talk about things they risk becoming demonetized, but of course as well there are some other platforms such as Rumble that have come about to try to kind of rectify that issue but they just don't get the amount of energy as things like Spotify and YouTube do. So if Spotify can kind of get that sweet spot where there are a little less stringent on their censorship and what you can and can't talk about that might be in the clear. However, their financials were pretty decent. The number of, and what's really big about this here you can talk about operating income and focusing on efficiencies which is a major issue for Spotify but of course they dumped a ton of money into the company. They got rid of about 6% of their staffing. Their gross margin rose 26% which is pretty solid from July to September but then the company's number of monthly active users rose 26% to 574 million. Excuse me. And that's really I think the big driver for these companies that rely on basically ad revenue. Folks, thank you so much for joining me today. Tom will be back tomorrow. I'll be with you just for the short news segment after this. Have a great rest of your day folks and we will see you tomorrow at 9 a.m. for Tommy O'Brien's show of the morning market kickoff. Take care now.


Hi friends, we are going to see the third series of April month Yojana 2021 with the title Jal Jeevan Mission. So we already saw that importance of reading Yojana for our UPSC examination is to make your answer more objective by using the informations and analysis of this content. In today's article, what are the topics we are going to see is first one is Jalshakti Abiyan and the second one is centrality of women in water management. These are the two topics we are going to see and we will take previous UPS equation and find how to integrate these points to that particular question. Hi friends, we are going for the article Jalshakti Abiyan and we can see the Athos names. So both of them worked in Ministry of Jalshakti and they have very good work experience and administrative experience in water management. So they are writing an article how to go for water management under the topic called Jalshakti Abiyan. So in that page number 46, we take paragraph 1, paragraph 2 and paragraph 3. So we will start with paragraph 1. The source of water is finite. Thus finite availability and competing demand makes water management a complex issue with increasing conflicts between water users and its users. So in pre-independent India, local communities have been known for designing their system using traditional knowledge and wisdom to fulfill the needs of the community led to the decline in community participation, community in different climatic conditions. Taking over water managed by colonial rule led to decline in community participation made them dependent on government for meeting both drinking water and agriculture requirements. So any solution to water management issue shall be planned with people centric strategy that encourages and ensures their participation. And this paragraph can be an answer for your mains, especially the body of answers for any questions. So it has a lot of points which we can relate to our answer writing. So what are the keywords in this? If you go for water management, paragraph 1, water management, sorry, so water management. So water management is complex issue. So most of the problems in India is a complex issue. Why it's a complex issue is one is finite availability and competing demands. Finite availability and competing demands. And please understand these points. Finite availability and competing demands you can use for most of our resources. Either it can be water or it can be land or it can be mineral resources. So it depends upon how you take this keywords and relate with that particular topic. So this is a point where you can use it in your mains answer writing. So why it's a complex issue is finite availability of water and competing demands. Competing demands is what is required in different sectors of a human society. Either it can be agriculture, industry or domestic purpose. That's a competing demand. So that's the first point which we need to focus on. Our next thing is in pre-independent time, local communities have been knowing for designing the system using traditional knowledge. So pre-independence era. So pre-independence era where we can relate with traditional knowledge. So what is traditional knowledge is? It's accumulation of knowledge for thousands of years in different areas. Either it can be a medicine. Here we are focusing on water management. It is said that local communities based on their climatic conditions, traditional knowledge based on their climatic conditions, climatic conditions went for water management. So this can be a point used to say about India's richness in knowledge. So any question related to that either it can be an essay topic where you can relate this point. How India is abundant with traditional knowledge. One such is water management to understand that you can relate with the examples of Rajasthan and Gujarat where we have a lot of water conservation measures, traditional water conservation measures. So pre-independence era, especially during the British times you can see that people are very good in using this traditional knowledge especially before Britishers. Next comes the time of British administration or British rule in India where they broke the system. So where they broke this local participation and use of traditional knowledge in water management and the point says that people behind to depend upon government. So depend upon government for drinking water and agriculture requirements. So government made them dependent especially during British times because they have their own interest. So this can be a point in history also. Any question regarding history, regarding British rule in India, what are the impact? You can give this as a point not as a primary point but secondary point. And any solution to water management has to be planned with people centric strategy ensuring people's participation. So any solution for the problems in India, there should be active people's participation. Please understand this point can be a conclusion for any answers regarding India's socio-economic problems because any problem of the society can be solved only by active people's participation. It's not about water issues even if you take any problem of appellution or it can be a crime against women. So this is a common point. So that should be active people's participation. So that's paragraph one. And paragraph two, the Department of Drinking Water and Sanitation, Ministry of Jalshakti on July 1st, 2019 launched Jalshakti Abhyan in Coordination States and Union Territories as a time-bound campaign in 256 districts covering 1,500 blocks that are classified as water stress. Here what are the important factors? It's not about the timing or the year in which Jalshakti Abhyan was started. It's more about water stress. This is another factual statement which says that around 250 districts in India are categorized as water stress. When you say 250 districts or water stress means approximately we have around 700 districts. So you can calculate based on numbers. So what are the level of water stress in India? So 250 districts are having a water stress means which clearly shows that what will be the biggest problem. And how this factual information can be used is you know that in rural India, especially we depend upon agriculture as a major economic activity. And if you take this 250 districts, approximately around 70 to 80% is being rural area. That's our assumption. So 256 districts means mostly it will be concentrated in the agricultural activities also. Because of water stress what happens agriculture is not productive, not income generating. That results in rural to urban migration. So this can be a point you can use it for cause for rural to urban migration. So water stress is one important point. And you can give these facts in your answer saying that 250 districts in India is water stress. Even if you know which part of those areas are water stress, logically you can think of anything on if you take this western guards. You have gone through the southwest monsoon. How southwest monsoon occurs in India especially in Peninsular. So windward side, leeward side and mostly leeward side is the area where we have water stress. And if you go and check in migration pattern that is the source of migration. Example is with Darbar. So these are all the implied aspect of relating this fact. So 256 districts is water stress districts in India which results in rural to urban migration a cause. This factual statement you can write in your answers. Paragraph 2 and paragraph 3. The campaign was carried out in two phases. Phase 1 carried out between July 2019 for all states coinciding with southwest monsoon and state and union territories receiving retreating monsoon on the phase 2. So we know that there are two monsoons, southwest monsoon and northeast monsoon retreating monsoon. So this Jalshakti abyan was based on it. So southwest monsoon and northeast monsoon. So what are important of this passage is you can write this point in geography based question relating the importance of monsoon. You can see that government programs are tied with monsoon. The importance of monsoon is not only related to agriculture, not only related to industries even government programs are depending on monsoon. So phase 1 and phase 2 is based on monsoon pattern. So this is a paragraph 3 in page number 46. Next we go for page number 47. So in page number 47 intervention areas. So in this particular Jalshakti abyan what are the interventions? What are the interventions and nothing but measures. I just put that as paragraph 1, paragraph 2 and paragraph 3. So in paragraph 1 regarding intervention measures under Jalshakti abyan, water conservation, rainwater harvesting, renovation of traditional and other water bodies and tanks, reuse and recharge structures, watershed development and intensive afforestation. So these are the points where you can use it for water management. So here you can see that holistic approach. Here you can see that holistic approach in water management. Holistic approach means 360 degree taking into consideration of fall factors. One is water conservation and rainwater harvesting. So what are the source of water we have? We want to effectively collect that water, correct? So renovation of traditional water bodies and tanks, already infrastructures what we created for thousands of years. That we need to focus on renovation, reuse and recharge structures, changing the people's behavior. This is on demand side. So reuse and recharge structures are nothing but if you want to go for water management it's not only based on source, it also focus on how you use the water. So demand side and supply side. So that's a holistic approach here. And watershed management, overall aspects and intensive afforestation. These five points you can use it for water management or development of Indian system regarding water, all you can relate in this aspects. So paragraph 1, holistic approach of water management. So holistic approach means supply side and demand side. So they're taking into consideration of all the supply side and demand side, okay? So conservation plans, Krishi, Vigyan, Kendra, Mela's, urban water reuse, preparation of 3D via village, contour maps are also envisaged. So these are other measures being done, how to go for water management. Next thing is paragraph 2, the funds allocated under various regular schemes. Both centrally sponsored schemes of government of India and state government schemes have similar intervention as objectives. We are doubted at the district level. There were no separate fund allocation for campaigning. So this point can be used in your answer rating regarding criticism or critical aspects of Jalshakti Abiyan. So Jalshakti Abiyan water is the most important resource for human kind we know it and government is giving importance for it. But the problem is when come for financial resources we are lacking it. So what government is saying is, what are the schemes already have this objective? Try to find that scheme, use the fund effectively, okay? This you can use it as a critical aspect and also how government is very smart in using the fund. It depends upon the question what you're writing. So this can be used for lack of financial resources. So as our government doesn't have financial resources, we cannot allocate the money which is considered to be the primary focus of the government, focusing on water management. So this you can use it for your quality answers, economic answers, any question regarding financial management, what are the issues in financial management in India, how it impacts our Indian system. You can give this point and give this program as a good example for it. That's paragraph two. And paragraph three. The national level Jalshakti Abiyan monitoring dashboard was developed to capture the progress of state and district against Jalshakti Abiyan interventions. A mobile app was created for resisting the visiting teams to share the progress of the campaign during the visit to the states. Using the app, the visiting teams upload their reports on real-time dashboards. Dashboards were constantly monitored by dedicated team of officials from department of drinking water. So based on the performance reported, districts were ranked generating healthy competition among them and also campaign was reviewed regularly. So this is more about administrative angle. Here the use of technology. So government is effectively using technology. One is creation of dashboard. So right now we can see in all our major websites, we have dashboards. If you go for prime ministers of PMO website, you haven't seen the dashboard. In key areas of our government activities, what is the performance? So one is creating dashboard for this Jalshakti Abiyan, especially the intervention what we have saw in the previous paragraph. For that, they have some indicators and also app for visiting teams. So whenever a team visit under Jalshakti Abiyan for a particular district or a block, those visiting officials have an app that they can update it. So in real time, in the ministry, they can monitor the performance. So these are the things that use of technology in our governance process, use of technology in development. So if any question regarding how technology can help in our socio-economic development, if that type of question comes means, you can use this as an example. How this dashboard and apps helps in our focusing on government intervention for water management. A lot of other areas government is using it. Just for understanding purpose, I gave this as a point. So that's paragraph three of page number 47. The next thing is page number 48, so paragraph one and paragraph two. So paragraph one speaks about people's participation, people's participation. So people's participation, generally we say is a general society aspect. But here there is some factual statement is given. So an estimated 2 crore people participated in the campaign and especially youth. So youth population participation is very important. And the stair points, you can also use it in your answer rating. How participation of youth is important for our socio-economic development, okay. That's paragraph one, it's a very factual one. Usage is very minimal, but we can see that importance of some factual numbers in your answers. And paragraph two is nothing but a case study. So if you want to write some examples in your answer as a case study, you can put that as a separate paragraph or separate box in your answers and give this as a case study. So people of Haripur have converted a water body into a beautiful park with a pond. Village community constituted a committee called Haripur Vikas Committee for the development of village, including the pond site. So we always speak a lot about people participation, correct? So if any question is regarding people participation, this can be a case study. You can use this Haripur village as a case study. Where for water management, the entire village community has worked very effectively and they also created this Haripur Vikas Committee. So this is a good example of a case study, which you can use it in your answer writing. And this type of examples, you can't see it in our papers, newspapers. So this example will look like a more administrative answer. I think you're able to get the point, correct? So as most of your friends will be writing examples from newspapers, where they'll not have this micro level examples. When you're able to write this, the answer becomes more administrative. So that is the importance of this case studies. And finally, last one paragraph, so page number 41, 49. So paragraph one and paragraph two. So the intention of this paragraph one and paragraph two is, so what need to be done? We always say that way forward, correct? Paragraph one, so we call it that is way forward. So this is very specific for Jalshik Debian. So we'll just list out some key points in it, both paragraph one and paragraph two. First one is digital inventory. So we want to create digital inventory. The next thing is list of water bodies. So list of water bodies. The next thing is link to people's livelihood. So if you want to make Jalshik Debian more successful. So these are the points given there, which is very specific. But I'll just give an example how these points can be used overall in your GS papers. Next thing is social water body policing. Water body's policing, even a name is given, which we already saw in the previous videos, correct? Jalrakshakas. The next thing is survival of plantations. Next thing is to create awareness, capacity building. And this is very specific for water management. Capacity building of farmers on water conservation should be simultaneously done. And government rules for rainwater harvesting. And finally, to create a Jalshik Debian cell at district level. So district level. So this is a point given how to make Jalshik Debian more successful. Right from digital inventory to create a Jalshik Debian cell at district level. And please understand these same set of ideas can be used for n number of questions. Though this may be very specific for Jalshik Debian. So take example of crime against women. What need to be done? The same points can be used. Not all the points, so digital inventory. So what is digital inventory means? Right now you create a digital database about people involving crime against women. So that can be a point. And list of water bodies means list out what type of crime those persons are involved in it. And link to the people livelihood. That can be no such thing. Social water body policing. Similarly, if you want to reduce the crime against women. That could not be done only by the governments. So we need to encourage people to be part of that initiative. So that there is a term called community policing. That you can relate it. Survival of plantations. You need to check whether that community policing is surviving. I am just relating it. Okay. And to create awareness, this is a general point. Anywhere you can use it in your answer writing. Create awareness. For example, it can be crime against women. Or it can be election. Or anything you can relate with creation of awareness. Capacity building. Capacity building is to strengthen the stakeholders. Especially here it is about farmers. That it can be women. For example, giving them self-defense classes. Government rules. So government want to focus on creating rules more about more women friendly police forces. I am just making up some points. And cell need to be created at district level. Similarly, that should be a specific cell at a police SP level. So especially at the SP office, we need to create a cell. So this set of points, it depends upon how you relate to the question. Though it relates to Jalshakti and beyond. The same set of points you can relate anywhere. For example, to improve primary education in the award need to be done. Again, you can use all the same set of points. How you relate it most important. So all these points can be related anywhere for our socioeconomic challenges. That is the first article. And so we go for the second one. Centrality of women in water management. And she is an author, Aga Khan Rural Support Program. So in that we start with paragraph one. It is more about gender specific. This article is more gender specific. They are saying how women is important in water management. So women played a key integral role in water management policies need to be designed in manner to enhance this role even further. So the paragraph one clearly says that women is more important in water management. So water management can be done properly only with the active participation of women. So in this article, we see that how that is being established. How women is more important in our water management initiators. So that is paragraph one on page number 64. And next we go for page number 65. So paragraph one, I just put that paragraph one, paragraph two, and paragraph three. So in that paragraph one, so they say that gender roles also make women the health caretakers of the family. So women is equated with health caretakers of the family. So there's one important key point which you need to keep in mind. We'll discuss how this can be used in your answer writing. So they have given the reason why they are health caretakers of the family in the subsequent lines. And next, the poor quality of water which causes waterborne diseases also affects the women most. In some locations when water collection has to be done in early or late hours because of erratic supply or nature of the sources, there are issues of women's health care and safety also. In most communities, women not only collect water but they are primarily responsible for managing the drinking water at home. So any change in water timing, change in pressure or flow of water affects women in households the most. Being water carriers and water management, water carriers and water managers. So this is another most key word here. Water carriers and water managers. So water carriers and water managers, women are traditional knowledge bearers of season wise water availability in different water sources. Source wise water quality as compared to women and they use the source and water every day. This knowledge is very useful for planning of water supply schemes. So they have a very good traditional knowledge. So these are the points in paragraph 1. So where we can use these points? First point says they are the health caretakers of the family and next they are the water carriers and water managers in the family and they have knowledge about water sources, quality of water, seasonality about water. So what are the importance of this particular points is right now of lately in India we can see that is that we need to give some monetary value for women in our family. So as we know that mothers are doing lot of activities in our family which is not monetarily recognized. So can we need to give such like this? If there is any question like that in UPSC these are the supporting points because women especially we call them housewives they do all these activities right from health caretakers of the family to water carriers, water managers and they are the person with traditional knowledge about water. So these points can be used there. And apart from this why women need to be involved in government planning? Again these points can be said. So they are the first person to get impact by government programs so they need to be actively involved in government planning. So these points can be used for that. Our next thing is paragraph 2 women often ensures that egos and political caste difference do not affect community contribution or water rate collection which may otherwise lead to a system breakdown. So they are also the first to know of health problems in the family hence are keen to learn the link between water quality and health the ways to test water quality and dress it impurities through traditional knowledge. So what we can say this importance of women in socioeconomic development. To say in other words when compared with men and women women is able to understand the larger picture. So why that should be a water scheme, how it benefits and they just put aside the ego community, religion, caste outside to make sure that this program is successful, any program. So women are considered to be the natural leaders. So these points you can use it for example if any question regarding women and role in panchayat, why women are considered to be suitable for our development process, any question in that angle or any essay topics you can give the statements. How women is more focusing on greater picture, larger picture of society's development rather than small issues of caste religion other things. So this can also be a point used in your just ethics part also. Women as a natural leaders. So that's paragraph 2 and paragraph 3 by involving men not only does the drinking water intervention becomes more effective and inclusive but begin by giving voice to women in its implementation and management. The program also empowers the women and enhance their respect in villages, community leaders and members who solve problems common to the rich that's creating gender transformative impact. So women can emerge from family to be a leader. So what are the reasons for this? The previous points what we discussed. So they are not egoistic and they are more focused on social well-being or society's well-being and to understand this what the author says is women should give a primary role in our social development. What the primary role is one is implementation and management women role in implementation and management. So implement, implementation and management and also they can emerge as community leaders. So this points how we can use it in your answer writing even you can use it in GS quality. So if any questions regarding women reservation bill. Why that should be a women reservation bill and what are merits of it. Why women need to be part of a political system. You can give all this points. How women can be a community leader because of or their qualities as a person who never focus on ego or caste which we discussed as a previous points. So here it's more about women as a leader and women as a resource person and women actively involving socioeconomic development. So that's page number 65. Next we go for page number 66 paragraph 1. It is critical to involve women in decision making process at all stages of planning, implementation, management, operation, maintenance of rural drinking water supply. So this point for any socioeconomic issues for any socioeconomic issues what need to be done. Planning, implementation, management planning, implementation, management, operation, maintenance. So this is a set of points not only for water management. So this can be for disaster management. So what need to be done for disaster management you can take all these points and you can write it in that aspect disaster management. On any areas you can use these points. The very general management principles which you can use it not only for water management for any socioeconomic issues. This is a set of points. For that reason only we selected this paragraph. Next page number 67 paragraph 1, paragraph 2 and paragraph 3. So in paragraph 1 page number 67, so there are women cadres for water management. Women cadres of water paralegal workers. They are called as Jaldut or Bhujankar. So these are different names given for women who act as a cadre of water paralegal workers. See I can see that how rural women can be empowered. So in water management already we know the qualities of women how they are considered to be more society specific. So if they give them some authoritative position like this water paralegal workers and with this name Jaldut are the local names being given. So women can be an effective force in water management. So this you can say about rural employment generation or role of women in socioeconomic development. So all this you can relate here. So we don't know whether they are giving some salary for these things but this can be an opportunity for educated women especially in rural areas or anyone just finished off 10th standard to take a role of this. So this we recognize the importance of women. So that is one. Next thing is paragraph 2. This is again a case study. So in Bihar in Panchayat of Muzarfapur and Samshitpur we have many examples of women's self help group not only contributing towards the planning implementation of water level water scheme but also ensures the water is tested regularly. Closing hand pumps where water quality is poor, water charges are collected monthly and water operators are paid to run the system and manage the repairs and maintenance. Here you can see the most important term self help group self help group and water management. So for any question regarding self help group in governance this point you can use it and this is a case study. What is done the state of Bihar especially in these two districts how women's self help group is actively involving in water management. So this is a case study you can use it. Next thing is paragraph 3. So irrigation uses up to 80% of water in the country hence it is efficient, equitable use is critical. Women do 60% of work in agriculture and many hilly and poor regions they do bulk of farming when men have migrated out. Yet most irrigation communities have no women representation without the conservation and efficiency based approach that women bring to the decision making. Here are the importance of women and agriculture in water management. So what we need to understand if you want to have a proper water management there are two important factors you need to take into consideration. One is role of women and understanding agriculture and already we saw the factual statements in the previous videos where 80% of what is used in agriculture and women contribute the major role in agriculture. So this you need to keep in mind. So importance if any question regarding agriculture critical aspects so why Indian agriculture is always in bad shape and what need to be done you can give this points because it consumes 80% of pristine water and as water stress in India is very high and you can relate all these points. So agriculture can relate this paragraph 3. So this is regarding the next article what we saw in water management. So we will take some questions. So it is 2019 question so empowering women is the key to control population growth discuss. It is a very question not very specifically related here. So empowering women is key to control population growth discuss. So when you say empowering women, this empowering women, women is a general term and especially related to population growth. We need to specifically focus on adolescent pregnant and the women give give birth to child. So that is one specific area and they say empowering women is the most important thing. So when you take empowering women how we can relate this is so we can see this in article women is considered to be the health caretakers of the family. So when we are able to empower women in that dimension one is the well-being of the family which can also be related to population growth. It is a nothing but implied aspect. So from this article we know that women play a key role in water management. So you can also relate this to population growth. So one of the reason why in rural areas we have so many child birthers. The life expectancy is there the biggest issue like IMR.  So all this we can relate this to this aspect of water management. This is very one point. It is not that it should be the kind of complete answer. So when you say empowering women for population growth question is key to control population growth. Health aspect empowerment need to be there where women need to be given that choice when to have a child how many child need to they need to have spacing of child. These are all empowerment. Women need to be the decision maker in child birth. That is one area and technology. So we need to take the technology to the women to create awareness. Apart from this women already we saw in this article they are the health caretakers of the family and water play a major role in health. So you are able to save the child's life. Women is properly empowered. These are the points you can take from this particular article and relate to this question. I hope you are able to understand this question and relating to this particular article. Thank you.

Hey Psych2Goers, welcome back to another video. Are you worried about someone who might be suffering from a mental illness, or perhaps you're worried about your mental health? Major mental illnesses such as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder rarely appear out of the blue. Most often, family, friends, teachers, or individuals themselves recognize that something's not quite right about one's thinking, feelings, or behaviors before one of these illnesses appears in its full blown form. Being informed about developing symptoms or early warning signs can lead to intervention that can help reduce the severity of an illness. It may even be possible to delay or prevent a major mental illness altogether. Before we begin, this video is for educational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional guidance, advice, treatment, or diagnosis. We recommend you to reach out to a qualified healthcare provider or mental health professional if you or someone you know are struggling. With that said, let's look at the seven warning signs of a mental illness. Number one, recent social withdrawal and loss of interest in others. Do you know someone who has withdrawn themselves from social interaction? Have they been spending an excessive amount of time alone compared to before? Social withdrawal is defined as the lack of social relations with one's family and friends. Social withdrawal can be a symptom of depression, personality disorder, anxiety disorder, and more, but it could also be caused by other factors in one's life, such as high pressure from family or peers. Number two, an unusual drop in functioning, especially at school or work. Someone who is suffering from a mental illness may experience a sudden drop in their grades or performance in school or work. This can be caused by difficulties in concentrating, lack of self-worth, low mood, joylessness, a lack of activities in interest, social withdrawal, giving up leisure activities, changes in appetite, and sleep disruption. These are all symptoms that could heavily impact someone's ability to do work and could be a sign of mental illness. Number three, problems with concentration, memory, or logical thought and speech. Do you have trouble concentrating no matter how hard you try? According to an article written by Rachel Nall and medically reviewed by Dr. Alana Biggers, all of us rely on concentration to get through work or school every day. When you're unable to concentrate, you can't think clearly, focus on a task, or maintain your attention. This not only affects your performance at school or work, but also your decision-making. Some symptoms you may have experienced due to poor concentration include being unable to remember things that occurred a short time ago, difficulty sitting still, difficulty thinking clearly, frequently losing things, or difficulty remembering where things are, an inability to make decisions, or an inability to perform complicated tasks. Number four, loss of initiative or desire to participate in any activity. Are you uninterested in things that you once enjoyed? Anhedonia, similar to apathy, can refer to the inability to feel pleasure or manifest as a reduced desire and reduced motivation to engage in activities that were once pleasurable. The resulting numbness of this condition can be overwhelming and scary, and it could be a symptom of depression. Another term for anhedonia is emotional flatlining. If you'd like to know more about it, check out our video, Emotional Flatlining. What is it? Number five, a vague feeling of being disconnected from oneself or one surroundings, a sense of unreality.  Or that instead of being in the here and now, you feel like a detached observer, watching yourself go through life from a disconnected vantage point. This could also be another sign of mental illness, and there are actually a few terms for this. They're called depersonalization, an internal feeling of disconnection from oneself, derealization, an external feeling of disconnection from one's surroundings, and dissociation, detachment from one's physical and emotional experience. Number six, unusual or exaggerated beliefs about personal powers or magical thinking. What is magical thinking, you may ask? Well, it refers to the idea that you can influence the outcome of specific events by doing something that has no bearing on the circumstances. It's pretty common in children. Remember holding your breath, going through a tunnel, or not stepping on sidewalk cracks for the sake of your mom's back, or jumping from sofa to sofa because the floor is lava. Magical thinking can persist into adulthood too. Generally speaking, there's nothing wrong with following rituals or superstitions as long as they do not hurt anyone or they're not done excessively. However, uncontrollable and excessive magical thinking can be a symptom of mental health disorders like obsessive-compulsive disorder, schizophrenia, and anxiety disorder. And number seven, rapid or dramatic shifts in feelings or mood swings. Of course, it's normal to have days where you feel sad or days when you're overjoyed. As long as your mood changes don't interfere with your life to an extreme degree, they're generally considered to be healthy. But if your behavior is unpredictable for a number of days or longer, it may be a sign of something more serious. You may feel grumpy one minute and happy the next. You may also have emotions that can cause damage to your life. If you're experiencing severe shifts in mood or mood changes that cause extreme disruption and typical behavior, it's best to talk to your doctor. Professional therapy or medications can help you relieve these life-altering shifts in mood. So have you seen any of these signs in yourself or those around you? If you or someone you know identifies with a lot of these signs, please don't hesitate to reach out to a mental health professional. You're not alone in your struggles.

And the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, ought not to exist in the first place, as it is doing the same job as the police special fraud unit. And this is the submission of the former president of the Nigerian Bar Association, Odisha Agbackoba, S.A.N., during a press briefing in Lagos. A correspondent, Lovie Kokoye-Dokong, reports. The press briefing harped on the level of corruption and the fight against a hydro-headed crime. Agbackoba took a swipe on the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, arguing that since the commission is a creation of the National Assembly, it does not have the powers to interfere with activities of state governments. Agbackoba insisted that the EFCC is currently operating outside the constitution. Whoever wrote this constitution designed it for Nigeria to fail. Whoever wrote this, because on the one hand it seems to authorize the EFCC to interfere in state affairs, on the one hand. On the other hand, it does not. Then there are cases decided by the Supreme Court, in which they say federalism means two autonomous and independent governments. Now, if that is correct, then the EFCC has no right to go to the state's public account to say, we want to prove it, because they have no power. The human rights lawyer, however, said that he was not against the commission but to correct the anomalies of his workings. It's possible that even the EFCC doesn't understand exactly the nature of their powers. So I'm going to make an offer to the chairman of the EFCC, that I had initially spoken about going to court, but in the course of my research for the case, I can see why you might be making mistakes. So I'm ready to have a dialogue. Let us have a dialogue so as to understand exactly what the position is, because the constitution caused by the constitution is enormous, and I can see why they might be getting things wrong. If Mr. Bower takes me up on that, then that's the end. The former NBA president had last year, December, lambasted the EFCC over its recent actions against the Kogi state's government. Agbacuba maintained that the EFCC lacks the understanding of the law establishing it, noting that the 1999 constitution is structurally defective. Hello, hope you enjoyed the news.
