6th chameleon taking me inside her 13 million dollar home past her impressive 5 grammy display. Christina Aguilera is a timeless pop star who I think has one of the best and most powerful voices out there. I mean she's even made the rolling stone list for the best singers of all time in the past so there's the proof. With her long running career success, Christina's managed to purchase some top of the line Hollywood real estate over the years. She doesn't seem to move around much but her homes are gorgeous so I can see why. In this video we'll look at Christina's luxury estate in Beverly Hills and more. Christina Aguilera is a singer, songwriter, actress and also a TV personality since she was a judge on the show The Voice. She's 39 years old at the time of this recording but she's been working for years. I like to play a lot of sports. I like outdoor activities, swimming, going to zoos and little places like that. Hey you know I'm really excited about this, I've never ridden a horse before so uh come on let's go check it out. I comb my hair. Definitely got some split ends. I'm getting a little mohawk. Christina was one of those young talents from the Mickey Mouse Club alongside the likes of Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears and more when they were only kids. Personally I've always loved Christina and thought she had one of the most amazing voices ever. She's earned five Grammy Awards over her career, a star in the Hollywood Walk of Fame and plenty more including a People's Voice Award for the ability to reach listeners across various genres which is true. In 2008 Rolling Stone recognized Christina for being one of the 100 greatest singers of all time and wrote that she has had the finesse and power of a blues queen ever since she was a child star. I could go on and on about Christina's talents and awards but today we'll be focusing less on that and more on her real estate. At the time Christina is living with her two children and although she's previously divorced she's engaged at the moment to Matthew Rutler. Christina's estimated net worth is at about $180 million and with that kind of money you know she has a gorgeous place in LA.  Today we're going to be looking at where Christina Aguilera calls home including her Beverly Hills mansion and more. I'm not sure if you know but one of her previous homes actually used to belong to a famous rock star and was shown on TV but I'll tell you who a little later.

I've also been reading all your comments and I'm going to be responding to some at the end. I need you to let me know who to do next in the comments down below and who's home you'd like to see. Now let's get into this video. Let's start with Christina's current mansion. We know that up until recently the pop star had had a residency in Las Vegas called The Experience performing shows all the time at the Zappos Theater. Aguilera, whose 9 year old son Max showed off some impressive moves that his mother's rehearsal. He joined in as Aguilera's backup dancers practiced their choreography to her 2006 hit Ain't No Other Man. Using his water bottle as a microphone, it seems Max is ready to take center stage. The dancers continued the routine with two hyping Max out. It began last year and was set to end in November 2020, however since the world is basically on hold right now, schedules will likely change. I'd assume with all the time Christina was spending in Vegas she either had a penthouse on the strip that was complimentary or was renting out a nearby mansion but that hasn't been confirmed. We do know that she doesn't seem to move around a lot and has been living in a beautiful mansion in Beverly Hills since 2013. Christina paid 10.75 million for this home and it's located in the Mall Holland Estates in the Sherman Oaks neighborhood. Technically, Mall Holland estates isn't in Beverly Hills but the zip code is still 90210. This neighborhood is located in the San Fernando Valley and is a gated community of course. Some of Christina's famous neighbors were Charlie Sheen and Paris Hilton but I'm not sure if they've moved. While some say this mansion is a slight downgrade from Christina's previous home since it has less bedrooms, I'll let you guys be the judge cause we'll look at the other one right after. Christina's Mall Holland Estates mansion spans 11,107 square feet of living space and it was built in a Mediterranean style. The seller of the mansion was Tom Gores who owns the Detroit Pistons and he was previously leasing it to Adrian Malou from the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills for a massive 20k per month. Her mansion sits on just under an acre of land and has six bedrooms and nine baths. It's more sophisticated than the last with marble floors throughout and classy decoration. There's a large formal living room and dining room as well as a wood paneled library, two bars, a walk-in wine cellar and five fireplaces throughout the home. The den has a double height ceiling and the eating kitchen includes a walk-in pantry on top of the line appliances. Not to mention Christina also has a room that's called the Loggia with a wood paneled ceiling and mirrored walls and a home movie theater. Each of the five guest bedrooms has a private en suite bathroom and the second floor master suite is something else altogether. There's a carved stone fireplace, a private office that could act as a dressing room, two walk-in closets and the master bath comes with two rooms, twin vanities, a steam shower and soaking tub. Not to mention Christina's master suite has direct access to a private terrace. Throughout the house there are plenty of oversized arched glass doors leading to the picture-perfect backyard and entertainment areas. Outside Christina's mansion you'll find gorgeous landscaping and gardens, flagstone terraces, a stone gazebo, built-in barbecue station and a couple fountains. Of course there's a saltwater swimming pool and spa with a nearby bath house if you feel like taking a break. For ultimate privacy she also has the whole property secured with state of the art security systems and high-tech cameras. Christina's been happily living in her Sherman Oaks mansion for a while now and we can still catch glimpses of it on her Instagram from time to time. Like I mentioned, Christina lived in another Beverly Hills home prior to this but put it on the market back in 2012 for a massive 13.5 million. This home was actually famous because Ozzy Osbourne owned it and the Osbourne's lived here during the filming of their hit MTV reality show. So if the place looks familiar from the photos that's exactly why. Christina bought the mansion in 2008 for 11.5 million and it's located in the lavish, celeb-filled neighborhood of the Hollywood Hills. The pink Mediterranean style house was modern and spanned about 10,000 square feet of living space with six beds and nine baths. It sat on a lot that was over half an acre of land and was completely gated. The color scheme here included a lot of pinks, reds and blacks. And the home's interior was decorated in a Gothic burlesque style. Personally, I love it. Upon first walking in the home you're greeted by high ceilings, a red chandelier and winding staircase.  In fact, most of the filming on the show, the Osbourne's took place in the kitchen and main living area, so they got the most attention. There's also an office with fireplace, a full-out home gym, a games room, home movie theater, salon area and even a gift wrapping room, whatever that is. There's also a cute children's room which likely used to belong to her eldest son Max.  Looking at how Christina decorated her walk-in closet or dressing room, it was super impressive. I love how spacious it is, not to mention all that pink because it's definitely my favorite color. Moving outside the mansion there's an additional guest house with built-in recording studio and large pool, complete with a water slide and grotto spa. The huge outdoor area also has a zen-looking cabana space as well as more patio areas to relax and entertain. Although Christina sold this home, I'm jealous of whoever got to live there. I actually love the interior design and think she had great taste. So now we've taken a look at where Miss Christina Aguilera calls home with her family, including the mansion in Sherman Oak she's lived in since 2013 and is likely carrying out her 2020 quarantine in. We also saw her previous home that used to belong to the infamous Osbourne family and was even featured on their reality show way back in the day. I'm sure Christina is happy in her current home because she hasn't moved in a while, but my personal favorite was her previous mansion. What about you guys? Which one of Christina's homes did you like best? I liked her old one because of the unique Gothic style and how she designed each room to have a different vibe. Not to mention I love all the pink and red accents. Okay guys now I'll read out a few of your comments from previous videos. On our Ellen DeGeneres house tour Jane Lowe commented saying, I thought you made a mistake. Ellen is 62. What? I had to Google it. Yes, 62. I agree, Jane. I was shocked to hear that's her age, but good for her for looking so young.  I love their French country house. It's gorgeous. Can't wait to see their next home in Florida. Yes, we'll have to do an updated one once Tom and Giselle got a new home in Tampa and I bet it will be massive. All right guys, that's all I could find at Christina Aguilera's mansions. We know she doesn't move around much it seems, but each of the home she's had in Beverly Hills and Hollywood have been gorgeous. What was your favorite part of the homes? I gotta say that I love the dressing room or walk-in closet in her first house along with everything else. The bedrooms were super cool too. Let me know in the comments as well as what other celebrity houses you'd like to see. Follow me on Instagram if you want to chat more and I'll see you all next time. Bye.


Okay. Let's try this one more time. Okay. So, if 0.1 moles of the ammonium chloride is dissolved into 100 grams of solvent with a specific heat of 0.800 pounds per grams times the degree Celsius, if the temperature of this solution decreases from 25 degrees to 18 degrees, how much energy is transferred in the reaction and is this reaction exothermic or anything? So, let's go ahead and label all our variables first. Okay. So, the first thing we need to do is find the mass of the solvent. Okay. That's going to be 1.00 times 10 square grams or 100 grams. The specific heat of the solvent is going to be 0.800 pounds per one gram times degree Celsius and the temperature change, of course, is going to be always the temperature final minus the temperature initial. In this case, it's going to be, the Tf is 18.0 degrees C minus 25.0 degrees C. So, the change in temperature is going to be negative 7.0 degrees C. So, already you can see that since the temperature is decreasing, this is going to be an endothermic reaction. Okay. Endothermic because the temperature is decreasing. So, all you got to do now is plug these values into the equation and, you know, the heat of the solvent, the heat transferred by the solvent is going to be the mass of the solvent times the change in temperature of the solvent times the specific heat of the solvent. So, the mass of the solvent is 1.00 times 10 square grams. The change in temperature of the solvent is negative 7.0 degrees Celsius and the specific heat of the solvent, 0.800 calories per one gram degrees Celsius. Okay? So, if we look now, we can cancel out grams, some grams, degrees Celsius, degrees Celsius and we're left with calories. So, when we do that, 1.00 times 10 square times negative 7 times 0.8. And then it gives us negative 560 dot calories. Okay? So, notice that this is the cube of the solvent. So, since it's negative, that means that the solvent is giving the reaction energy. Okay? Or the solvent is giving off energy. The reaction is exorbitant. That also says that the reaction is endothermic. Okay? The other thing that we want to know is or that we can extend this problem, if it said give it in K-cals or give it in big C-cals, we could just say that times, well, 1,000 calories per one big C-cals. Cals cancel and we get negative 0.560 nutritional or big C-cals. So, that's the cube of the solvent.


Hey everyone, welcome back for more ExoZero's content, today's video we're going to discuss why you should start playing ExoZero's today as in now, as in January 2021, but before that if you want to see more ExoZero's content and updated content, please hit the subscribe button down below. So why do you think you should start playing ExoZero's now? What do you think? Give me, give me, give me, try to give me some answers. If you don't know the answer, right now it's a good time to play ExoZero's because of season 3 will be coming at the end of January. So this is the event. So January special event, the season will be updated at the end of January. While waiting for the season 3 update, we have prepared the following various events. So the first event would be a hot time event in which certain parts of the game, especially the challenges, will be given double rewards. So the period would be 14th to 17th and 21st to 24th of January. So the following events will be given increased rewards, experience sanctum, spirit sanctum, blessing sanctum, solar trade route, and lunar trade route. So those are just a part of what they're going to give us. The second part would be a special login reward. So from January 17th to January 27th. So there are rewards just for logging in the game. So play the game now, return to the game now. And if these rewards will not convince you, the next ones will. So the first day is going to be Gold 200,000, Dai Kupons 10, Lunar trade route, solar trade route, ticket each times 3, Solar Seals 300, Mu3, Zest 200, Ultimate Orb times 3, Heroic token 200, Oro mana 10, and Nation recruit ticket 5. So had enough? I guess not. So let's proceed to the juiciest part of the rewards. Okay so third is 7 days attendance for those return users. For those of you who have left the game, I suggest you come back now as in this January 2021 because there is a 7 day login reward for you guys. So day 1, 1 million gold, day 2, 200 book of experience, basic, day 3, 3 faded armor crafting tickets, day 4 faded weapon crafting ticket, day 5, 200 gods common abrasives, day 6, 1000 sets, and day 7 is a special faded hero recruit ticket. Take note that these are generals guys. You'll be getting generals but these are at random. And the mother load of them all is on the day of the launch itself. So updated commemorate event rewards season 3, fate core selection ticket gold grade times 1. The reason why you should play the game because this has never happened before that they gave away a gold grade ticket which is a selection ticket. Take note this is not a random ticket you can select whoever gold fate core you want. So this is actually the first in XO0's history. So please come back to the game or play the game. The next is you get 3000 sets. So also this is a big amount of zest to be given away for season 3 alone. Okay guys again this is huge. The next reward is Mew times 5 not so much gold 1 million nation recruit ticket times 30. So nation recruit tickets are also like your pulls when you pull for banners but this is for your nation recruit banner and also Daikupon times 100. So these events actually or these rewards are actually very good because it actually gives you a head start. The gold let's go back to the gold what do you call this? Gold grade times 1 fate core selection ticket. Who are the top gold fate cores out there that you have in mind? So you have first battery, you have rara, you have jenai, you have shell, you have who else rudley, you have garf, you have tons of good and very tantalo, you have iris and I could just go on and on on who are the best gold fate cores that you get with this one. So this is very good just by playing the game. I'm sure that beginners won't be able to appreciate who the gold fate core heroes are but trust me once you get one as much as possible try to know first who you who you're going to focus as a nation before you recruit. So I'll give that to you for more research in terms of who are the best gold fate cores that you should recruit. Okay guys for beginners returning players this is a good deal for you to return to the game. Now this month January 2021. So anyway if you have other comments and suggestions put them down in the comments section below. Also please do subscribe to my channel this helps me so much. Anyway I hope you're all safe. Take care always this is The Warden and I'm out.


Okay so this is the continuation of the previous lecture so let me recall what our assumptions are we have a domain in C2 the product of C with itself it is an open connected subset of C2 and we have a function f a complex valued function of two complex variables the first variable being denoted by z second variable denoted by w and we assume that the function is continuous we assume that there is a point in the domain where the function vanishes and the first derivative with respect to the first variable does not vanish and of course we assume that the function for each fixed value of the second variable in the domain the function is an analytic function of the first variable okay see if this domain really confuses you for some reason you can simply assume that this domain is all of the complex the product of you know two copies of the complex plane okay you can assume D equal to C2 if you think that it makes life more easier to understand okay. So here is the implicit function theorem which says that if the function vanishes at a point where the first variable the partial derivative with respect to the first variable does not vanish okay which means by that I mean you consider it as function in the first variable freezing the second variable and then you substitute that point you take the derivative with respect to the first variable then substitute that point that is the partial derivative with respect to the first variable at that point and if that is not zero the implicit function theorem says that you can solve for the first variable in terms of the second variable So in this case you can solve for z in terms of w so you can write the explicit function g z equal to g g of w which will be an explicit equation for f of z comma w equal to 0 in other words in a neighbourhood of w0 what you will get is a function g of w such that if you write z equal to g of w and substitute it in this equation you will get f of g of w comma w equal to 0. So you have solved f of z comma w equal to 0 for z as g of w that is what the implicit function theorem says. And now so what we do is as you may recall the first hypothesis tells you that if with respect to the second variable free frozen as w0 this is an analytic function of z and at z equal to z0 this is a 0 and because the first derivative does not vanish it is a simple zero okay and therefore by we proceeded after that to show that there is an open annulus surrounding a finite circle of finite radius centered at z0 cross an open disc surrounding w0 where f does not vanish okay and for all values of w in this disc surrounding w0 we said that we could solve for z as a function of w okay with z lying inside a disc centered at z0 radius rho okay and of course this rho is chosen in such a way that it is the disc which isolates the 0 of the 0 z0 of f of z comma w w0 okay. So this is the in this disc the function f of z comma w0 which is a function of z has only 1 0 and that 0 is at the center that is how this rho is chosen and the rho the way the delta is chosen is a little involved but that is what I explained in the previous lecture and now for what I want to say is that for every w in this disc open disc centered w0 radius delta if I define g of w to be this function okay then my claim is that and if I call that g of w as z then f of z that z comma w is 0 okay in other words g of w solves the equation f of z comma w equal to 0 with z equal to g of w okay. So the explicit the implicit equation f of z comma w equal to 0 is solved for the first variable z in terms of the second variable w for all w in this disc alright that is what it says. Now I will have to prove I will have to prove this fact so the first thing I have to tell you is that I want to tell you something about this integral okay mind you for all points on this boundary circle f of the function does not vanish that is because of the that is because of this fact that the set of points where the function does not vanish contains this contains an annular open annular region containing this circle cross this disc centered open disc centered w0 okay. So I am dividing by this term and this term does not vanish mind you here the first variable lies on the on this disc centered at z0 radius rho and the second variable is constrained by this equation which says that it lies to within a distance of delta from w0 okay. So I am dividing by something that is not 0 alright and mind you if you look at what is happening here the variable of integration is I have called it as zeta because I do not want to use z alright I am calling the variable of integration as zeta and zeta is the first variable the second variable is fixed to w alright and if you take f of zeta, w you know that it is already an analytic function of zeta so I take its derivative with respect to zeta and then I substitute for the second variable to be equal to w okay you can also write this dou f by dou zeta of dou by you can also write this as d by d zeta of f of zeta comma w okay it is the same thing because you are freezing the second variable to w and you are taking derivative with respect to the first way right. Now the point I want to make is that since and you know of course the derivative of an analytic function is also an analytic function okay so since f of zeta comma w is an analytic function for fixed at w its derivative with respect to the first variable is also an analytic function for fixed values of the side for the fixed value of w and therefore this is an analytic function this is an analytic function of zeta this is also an analytic function of zeta this is just simply the identity which is the identity function and what we have in the denominator is also an analytic function of zeta for this fixed at w so this integrand is an analytic function of zeta and it is and the denominator does not vanish so this integral is well defined okay and this integral is well defined and you are going to get you are going to get a function of w because you are going to integrate with respect to see for a path integral to be well defined all you need is that the integrand is a continuous function on the path you do not need anything else okay so for this function for this integral to be well defined I just need the integrand to be a continuous function but in fact it is a quotient of analytic functions with the denominator analytic function not vanishing so certainly it is a continuous function so this integral exists and after you integrated out the variable zeta goes away and what is left out is only a function of w I am calling that as g of w so this function is well defined alright. Now the claim is that this function solves f of z, w equal to 0 okay that is the claim now so and I have to also tell you that value of g of w if I call it as z then I have to tell you that the value z is taken by g at w only once okay that is what I want to say that is I am just saying that z is you know it is a simple 0 of f of zeta, w for w in this neighbourhood right alright so let me prove this so what I am going to do is let me go to this side of the board and again the method of proof is essentially the same as we did for the inverse function theorem if you look at the proof of the inverse function theorem you can see that I am more or less following the same ideas. So what I will do is I will do the following thing firstly we define 1 by 2 pi i integral over mod zeta minus z0 equal to rho and then I will write the same expression but I will forget I will not write the zeta so I will simply write do f zeta, beta by do zeta at zeta, w t zeta by f of zeta, w okay. Suppose we define this for mod w minus w0 strictly less than delta mind you this integral also makes sense this integral makes sense because again you know the integrand is the numerator is an analytic function it is just you take f and you freeze the second variable to be w then it is an analytic function of the first variable you take its derivative with respect to the first variable and you know the derivative of analytic function is again an analytic function therefore this is an analytic function and it is just the derivative of the function in the denominator so it is a logarithmic derivative actually alright and so in other words what this is is just you are just taking the integral of the logarithmic derivative of f but then if you take the integral of the logarithmic derivative of f and divide by 2 pi i what you would get is by the argument principle you are going to get the number of zeros minus number of poles counted with multiplicity. The first thing I need to say is the following first of all n of w is well defined and is an integer okay it is well defined because the denominator function does not vanish on the boundary on this path on the circle where the variable of integration lies the denominator function does not vanish because that is how we chose this that is how you have chosen this rho and delta okay. So first of all this integral is well defined and since it is the logarithmic derivative of the denominator it is going to be an integer it is a logarithmic derivative of the denominator divided by 2 pi i so it is going to be an integer which is going to be a number of zeros minus number of poles counted with multiplicity so it is an integer valued function and it is an exercise that we have done before in the proofs of several other theorems it is easy to check that n of w is actually an analytic function of w for w in this disk okay. So let me write that down also n of w is analytic in w for mod w minus w not less than delta okay we have we have proved a similar statement earlier okay. So this is so you see you have an analytic function which is integer valued and it is defined on this disk which is connected therefore it has to be constant okay so this is also an idea which we have used earlier so this implies n of w is equal to constant it is a constant integer and that constant will be equal to n of w not for all w with mod w minus w not less than delta this is what you will get okay. And you see but what is n of w not see n of w not if you calculate n of w not you are then looking at the number of zeros minus number of poles of the function f of z comma w not in inside this disk but inside this disk it is analytic and it has only one zero the zero is at the center at z not and it is a simple zero okay. So n of w not will be one okay so what this will tell you is that n of w is one okay so the moral of the story is that you know for every w with in this disk I can find I find that the function f of z comma w has only one single it has only one single zero at a point z which lies inside this disk that is what it says because what is n of w n of w is n of w is one okay we will tell you that you know it will have only one zero and that has to be a simple zero if it is a zero of higher order then this number will go up alright. So moral of the story is that for every w in this disk I can find a z which is lying inside the disk bounded by this circle such that f of z comma w is zero so what this tells you is that I have a function from this disk to the z plane okay so this means we have a function mod w minus w not less than delta from this set to c with w going to let me call this as g of w okay if you want let us call that as z okay and in fact where it goes into is it goes into this disk the set of all mod z minus zeta not z not is less than rho it goes into this. So basically I have a function like this you know what this function is it sends to each w the point z such that f of z comma w is zero such that f of z comma w is equal to zero okay this is the it sends for every w to the unique simple pole of the unique simple pole of this integrand which is essentially the unique simple zero of f of zeta comma w namely it is unique value z such that f of zeta comma w such that f of z comma w is zero okay for every w I am getting a z right this is my function okay and in fact in fact there is also another way of looking at it and which is as follows namely I will have to tell you that I mean there is something here that I have to prove I will have to say that this see after all I am getting a function here w going to some function of w which I am calling as z but I am calling that function as g and I have written that the formula for g is this okay so I will have to tell you that this that g is given by this formula that g is given by this formula it gives a value z satisfying f of z comma w equal to zero okay so I will have to only show that this formula is correct alright. So how do I do that that is again very simple application of residue theorem so you see consider now let us consider the that integral 1 by 2 pi i integral over mod zeta minus z not equal to rho zeta dou zeta by dou sorry dou f by dou zeta at zeta comma w t zeta by f of zeta comma w for mod w minus w not less than delta consider this okay. Now what is the integrand the integrand is zeta actually t by sorry you know if you want I can okay so let me write it like this d by d zeta of f of zeta comma w divided by f of zeta comma w this is the integrand and consider the of course w is fixed okay this form this is defined for fixed w lying in this open disc so you consider this integrand as a function of zeta because the variable of integration is zeta okay. If you look at this integrand you will see that it is an analytic function okay and it is analytic not only it is analytic in the on this disc and it is interior alright and you will see that it will have only one simple pole namely that will correspond to a simple 0 of the denominator where that 0 is zeta equal to z which comes because of this okay. So this this is analytic in mod zeta minus z not less than or equal to rho with a simple 0 at zeta equal to z okay there is a value there is a value z where f of z comma w is 0 first that is all that comes from here okay that is because enough because it is enough for w is 1 so there is a z and there is only one z okay and the for that z f of z comma w is 0 for the given w and the 0 is simple of order 1 okay that is all that is all completely you know buried in this statement that n of w is 1 right now take that z that z will be the only pole for this function it will be a simple pole. So you know if you take 1 by 2 pi i integrate over a curve a function then by the residue theorem we will tell you that you will get simply the residue of the function at that point at that at its you will get actually generally you will get the sum of residues at various poles. So in this case I will simply get this residue at the simple pole okay so by the residue theorem by the residue theorem what will happen is 1 by 2 pi i integral over mod zeta minus z0 equal to rho of zeta dou f by dou zeta at zeta comma w d zeta by f of zeta comma w is actually residue of this function zeta if you want d by d zeta f of zeta comma w by f of zeta comma w at zeta equal to z this is the residue and this is the residue at a simple pole and you know there is a you know how to compute the residue at a simple pole you will just have to multiply it by the variable minus that pole and then take the limit as the variable tends to that pole that is how you find the residue at a simple pole. So that will be equal to limit zeta tends to z zeta minus z times the integrand which is I will get zeta d by d zeta f zeta comma w by f zeta comma w okay this is what I will get and well the and I claim that this is equal to z which will prove that this quantity is equal to z but but z is g of w if you want and so it tells you that this is the formula for g of w okay so it proves that formula that I have written here right. So so why is this true this is this pretty easy because this is limit zeta tends to z of zeta d by d zeta of f of zeta comma w by see the denominator I am writing this as f of zeta comma w minus f of z comma w mind you this is 0 f of z comma w is 0 by zeta minus z I am just pushing this zeta minus z to the denominator and you know now if I take the limit here I am going to get derivative I am going this what I am going to get here is just this these two going to cancel I am going to just get limit zeta instead of zeta and that is going to be z okay so that proves the formula the only thing that you will have to think about is how I can cancel this without ensuring that this derivative is non-zero okay that this derivative is non-zero at z okay and that again follows from the fact that n of w is 1 okay note that so let me write that down note that n of w equal to 1 ensures that d by d zeta f of zeta comma w at zeta equal to z is not equal to this is non-zero derivative is non-zero okay because of the derivative saying that the derivative is non-zero tells you that z is a 0 of order 1 of f of zeta comma w which is what n of w equal to 1 says okay if this derivative was 0 then n of w the value of n of w would have shot up it will not be 1 it will be some it will be an integer greater than 1 that is not the case okay that is why I can cancel these two guys I will simply get limit zeta tends to zeta which is z okay so the formula for and what is this z this z is the unique 0 of f of zeta comma w so it is a unique value lying in this disk the integer of this disk where f of zeta comma w is 0 okay so that finishes that finishes the proof of this claim okay now I come to the question more technical question as to when this function g that I have defined okay which gives the first variable explicitly in terms of the second variable when is that function g also analytic okay so the answer to that is it will be so when the function capital F is also analytic in the second variable so far what we have assumed is that the function capital F is continuous in both variables okay put together it is continuous as a function of two variables and we have assumed that it is continuous in the first variable for every fixed value of the second variable okay but what we have not assumed is that if you freeze the first variable then consider it as a function of the second variable that it is analytic with respect to second variable that we have not assumed so far we have assumed only continuity with respect to both the variables put together which will give you continuity with respect to each variable separately okay. So what I am saying is that if capital F is also analytic in the second variable for every fixed value of the first variable then this g that you have defined is actually an analytic function of w okay so let me write that down so facts number one if F of z, w is analytic in w for every fixed z for every fixed z then g of w is analytic in w this is the first fact okay proving this is again an exercise which involves techniques similar to ones that we have used so far so I will probably leave it as an exercise and in fact if a function is analytic then the natural see you have function which has which is given by a formula g is given by a formula and the moment you say it is analytic then you will then it is natural to ask what is the formula for the derivative okay so there is an answer to that and that is remark number two fact number two in the above case that is when F is a function analytic function in the second variable for every value fixed value of the first variable and g is analytic the derivative g dash of w is actually given by minus of dou F by dou second variable divided by evaluated at g w, w divided by dou F by dou first variable evaluated at g w, w where you know F is written as F of eta, this is partial derivative of the second variable and this is a partial derivative with respect to the first variable and then you evaluate at this point z, w but now z is g of w okay and this is everything so this is a formula for g dash of w in terms of F and g of w okay and so I leave it as exercises for you to check that these formulas are these formulas hold but the point I want to say is this finishes the statement of the proof of the implicit function theorem okay but what I want to next say is I want to say why this implies the inverse function theorem so you know as a corollary you have the inverse function theorem what you do is put you put F of z, w is equal to F of z minus w okay where you know F is analytic on a domain in C okay and F of z not is equal to w not or w not in that domain and F dash of z not is not equal to 0 okay. So the inverse function theorem says that you know you take a analytic function defined analytic function now of one complex variable assume that the function takes assume that the derivative of the function is not 0 at a point then you know what it says in sufficiently small neighborhood of the point the function is 1 to 1 and you can write out an inverse function okay and so you know if you put capital F of z, w to be small f of z minus w then you can see that capital F of z not, w not is 0 okay then number 1 you will see that capital F of z not, w not is 0 because it will be F of z not minus w not which is 0 and second thing is if you take the partial derivative of this with respect to the first variable okay then you will get F dash of z okay and if you substitute z not you will get F dash of z not and that which is not 0. So doh F by doh zeta of zeta F of zeta, zeta at z not, w not is not 0 which is you know which is the condition that we need to apply the implicit function theorem. So now if you apply the implicit function theorem what will tell you is that I can write I can solve for z as g of w such that F of g of w capital F of g of w, w is 0 which means you are saying that small f of small g of w minus small w is 0 which means you are saying small f of small g of w is equal to small w which means you are just saying g is inverse of f okay. So let me write that down, so you get the inverse function theorem and so we get for mod w minus w not less than delta, delta suitably small chosen suitably small you will get z equal to g of w such that f of g of w, w is 0 that is such that f of g of w is equal to w that is it means that g is the inverse g is f inverse, so you get the inverse function, so g becomes f inverse okay and in fact you can see that for fix z if I fix a value of z then f of z is a constant I will get constant minus w and constant minus w is certainly analytic function of w. When I write f of z minus w if I fix a w then this is f of z minus a constant and that is analytic because f of z is analytic, so it is analytic in the first variable if I fix if I freeze the second variable. Similarly if I freeze the first variable z then f of z becomes a constant, so I will get constant minus w and constant minus w is certainly analytic function of w with derivative minus 1 alright, so it is analytic in both variables alright. So according to the implicit function theorem this g that you get will also be analytic g that you will get will also be analytic it will be given by this formula and you will see that this is if you plug in capital F equal to small f minus w in this formula you will get back the formula that we got in the inverse function theorem, you will get back the same formula and you will also see that you will get more if you plug if you use this formula note that we get also of course we get as before f inverse of w is 1 by 2 pi i integral over mod zeta minus z not equal to rho zeta f dash of zeta t zeta by f zeta minus w ok which is the formula for the inverse function theorem that you get from here and also and further you get this from this you get a very nice formula you get f inverse derivative with respect to omega with respect to w is you take look at this you take partial derivative with respect to the second variable. So if I take partial derivative with respect to the second variable I will get minus 1 ok so I will get minus 1 divided by I take partial derivative with respect to the first variable if I take partial derivative with respect to the first variable I will get f dash of z and then if I substitute for z g of w I will get f dash of g of w so what I will get is I will get f dash of g of w so you get this formula ok and this formula is not very surprising because it is actually which is actually which is just product the product rule applied to so I should so here I have written g of w but I have to replace the g by f inverse so this is minus 1 by f dash of f inverse of w and of course you know f inverse w is z oh I am sorry ok yeah there is a minus here I forgot so I should get a plus yeah thanks for pointing that out ok there is already a minus here but then if I take partial derivative with respect to the second variable I will get minus 1 so it will become plus thanks for pointing that out but yeah so essentially what you will get is you know it is f dash of z times g dash of f of z ok is equal to 1 ok and that is just trying to it is just got by applying product rule to g circle f of z is identity so it is just g circle f is equal to identity on z see g is f inverse ok so what does this say this is g of f of z is equal to z this is g of f of z equal to z differentiate it you will get g dash of f of z into f dash of z equal to 1 so it will tell you g dash of f of z is 1 by f dash of z that is what you got so it is just product rule applied to this where g is f inverse ok that is not very surprising so ok so now let me let me end this lecture by saying something interesting about an open problem which is an open problem both in complex analysis and algebraic geometry a very important Jacobian conjecture ok so let me explain what this Jacobian conjecture is so what you do is you take c2 to c2 ok map given by z comma w going to f of z comma w g of z comma w ok so in general you know if you want a function that is going from c2 to c2 I will take a point with two complex coordinates and I have to produce two complex coordinates so I have to give you two functions each function will vary will depend on both coordinates so I call them as capital F and capital G ok in general the best kind of functions you will think of are that you know both f and g are for example analytic in both variables ok and in particular what I want to do is I want to look at the case when f and g are actually polynomials into variables ok suppose we have a map where capital F and g are polynomials so f and g are polynomials in the variables z and w ok and if we can find an inverse map of the same type namely c2 to c2 which is given by z comma w going to say let me use something else I will let me use some other notation so I will get I will use p and q ok so assume that you have a map like this which is called a polynomial map because it is given by two polynomials and assume that of course you know if you give me a polynomial map I do not know whether it is injective I do not know whether it is surjective but assume it is bijective and assume that there is an inverse map which is also polynomial map ok assume that there is an inverse map which is also polynomial map which is given like this ok. Check that Jacobian of this pair f comma g is equal to a non-zero constant number non-zero constant complex number and that will hold also for the Jacobian of p and q where of course Jacobian of f and g means you take determinant of you take partial derivative of f with respect to both variables dou f by dou z dou f by dou w then you do it for the other function dou g by dou z dou g by dou w this is the Jacobian determinant mind you f and g are polynomials in two variables if you take partial derivatives again you are going to get polynomials in two variables ok and the fact is that this determinant therefore will be a polynomial in two variables but the fact is that if you have an inverse like this if this polynomial map has an inverse map is also a polynomial map then I want you to check that this determinant which is a polynomial in z then w is not actually a polynomial it is a constant and it is a non-zero constant ok this is probably just follows by using essentially product rule kind of argument ok. So you should be able to show that this is very this can be shown trivially ok with some basic knowledge of calculus now the Jacobian conjecture is actually the converse ok the Jacobian conjecture is the converse which says that you know conversely if you give me a pair of polynomials f and g with the property that the Jacobian is a non-zero constant then the result is that there is an inverse map which is again given by a pair of polynomials ok there is an inverse map which is again given by a pair of polynomials that is the Jacobian conjecture and the fact is that the Jacobian conjecture I have said it for two variables but you can set it for any n number of variables of course you can check that if I try to write this for one variable it is trivial to check that it is true ok. So the statement is really serious from the two variable case onwards so this is a Jacobian conjecture for two variables and for you can write that for n variables ok so but the fact is that it is still unsolved even for two variables and it is a statement only involving polynomials which are so easily understood ok. So it is a it is a it is a very deep question and it answers to answer this question people have gone into algebraic geometry they have gone into complex algebraic geometry they have gone into lot of complex analysis but the question is still open. So it is a it is a kind of question that if you solve some young person who is who is taking this course of lectures solves he will surely he or she will surely get a prize equivalent to the Nobel prize in mathematics so you will certainly get a fields medal if you solve this ok. So it is such a deep problem but it is so easily stated. So let me state it the Jacobian conjecture states that conversely if the Jacobian determinant of f, g is a non-zero constant complex number of course non-zero constant complex number then there exist an inverse map given by a pair of polynomials P and Q ok and I should say that this is not only for two variables it is also for n variables for n greater than 2 as well that is also that is also the general case of Jacobian conjecture but the fact is even for two variables it is not solved ok and the reason why I am talking about this when I am talking about the implicit function theorem and the inverse function theorem is that you see what is the inverse function theorem that we have seen says it says that see whenever you know the derivative is non-zero then locally you can invert ok whenever the derivative is non-zero at a point then you can find sufficiently small neighborhood of the point where the function is 1 to 1 so you can write the inverse ok. And this is the inverse function theorem for one variable but you can make the same statement for you can make a similar statement and inverse function theorem for several variables. So you know for example if you want for two variables the inverse function theorem for two variables will be give me a function like this and assume that f and g are if you want analytic do not even assume they are polynomials of course if they are polynomials they are analytic ok but assume f and g are more general analytic functions in both variables ok then calculate the Jacobian ok. The inverse function theorem tells in the two variable case that at every point where the Jacobian does not vanish ok I can invert the function in any boat ok so what I want to tell you is that from the view point of the inverse function theorem the Jacobian non-vanishing will tell you that locally this map can be inverted locally I can invert this map and the inverse by the implicit if you use the inverse function theorem or the implicit function theorem locally the inverse functions that you get they will again be analytic functions ok. So what analysis tells you is that this Jacobian non-vanishing will allow you to invert the map locally and the inversion is achieved by analytic functions ok that is what analysis tells you but the conjecture is very strong the conjecture says that you can find a global inverse and that global inverse is given by just two polynomials in the two variable case and similarly if it is a n variables case it tells you that the glow there is a global inverse which is given by n polynomials ok so you know what you will have to prove is that somehow the local functions that you get which invert you have to show that all the local functions you know they all can be chosen so that they all glue together to give a global function and you have to show that that global function is given by two polynomials the two variable case otherwise it is given by n polynomials in the n variable case. So that is the gap between what we know in analysis and what the Jacobian conjecture demands and of course I must tell you that you know if you prove that if you prove that there is a situation where you know the Jacobian is a non-zero constant but the map is not bijective then also you have given a counter example to the I mean if you are able to find you know if you can find a contradiction to this statement namely you find a counter example then also it will be a great result but no such counter example has been found ok so you are invited to try this or think about this.


You're welcome back. It's time now to x-ray some of the headlines on our national dailies. We're taking three newspapers today, The Guardian, The Punch and The Nation newspaper. Those are the newspapers we're going to be looking at. You might want to have a copy if you don't have all.  But in the meantime, we're going to do justice to the headlines, or at least some of them, if we cannot cover everything. To help us do that, we have architect Ezekiel Nyaitok, a public affairs analyst, talking to us from Aquivom. Good morning and welcome to the show, Architect. Thanks for having me. Lots of happy hours to you from Aquivom. It's always a happy hour from Aquivom. I hope that it's sustained for four years. I'm sure it will be. It meant that. Now, let's begin. It's a very interesting thing that we're beginning today with something that really concerns you. High prices push government homes beyond average Nigerians rich. That's the biggest headline there on The Guardian. Let me just go ahead and take some of them and then we'll start with that one. We have SCIID-1T, how not to investigate deterred criminals and all that. Federal government directs CBN to settle foreign airlines backlog. Six years after, Nigeria awards 49 gas flare sites to 42 investors. Then Kanu suspends another CASCO director for alleged palliative diversion. Federal government moves NIMC to Ministry of Interior as issued. NIN's hit 102.4 million. Let's begin with government homes. High prices push government homes beyond average Nigerians rich. Let's get your comments on that. You have insight into this. Yeah, I'm happy that a major paper is making housing a major headline. In every economy, this is what I've been on for over 30 years, advocating for housing, specifically social housing and social infrastructure. A lot of times we do not know that housing is not just one of those things. It is actually foundational. If you look at the Maslow's pyramid of human needs, food, clothing and shelter, it's one of the basics, it's one of the fundamentals. Housing has so much impact on national economy, job creation. One housing is one of the areas that creates most jobs. You know, think of one house you want to build. You're going to engage a minimum of 30 sets of people and in different fields. The carpenters are different from the messians. They are different from the iron benders. They are different from the plumbers. They are different from the electricians. They are different from, you know, and then you have the labor. Even within the carpentry, those that do doors like the furniture sets are different from those that do other parts.  And imagine government investing. Another good thing about housing is that now you talk about the extension workers and others, you talk about the suppliers of cement, of sand, of gravel or granite, of all sorts of things and over 90%, 95% of the money goes local. So any state government that wants to do road, you realize that about 80% goes outside, like capital flights. You know, the asphalt is not from you, all the other elements. Even the workforce, you know, you only have labor while the top money goes top. So the labor content probably takes less than 15% of the resources. But that same man who wants to do road for 10 billion might realize that just about one or two billion gets down to the people. But a man who wants to do housing for 10 billion, almost the whole of the 10 billion gets into the local economy. Now, when you do leave that part and come to understand government and housing, I had no sectionalized or categorized housing or segmented housing into three areas and these three areas have been adopted, I would say internationally. You have what you call, what I call the luxury homes or luxury housing. You have affordable housing. You have social housing. They are different. They are not the same thing. Affordable homes or affordable housing, luxury housing, affordable housing and social housing, those three.  He must allow that. But what you do is you tax, you get money from that. Now, in the second segment, that is in luxury housing. In the second segment, which is affordable housing. Affordable housing and mass housing is usually, you know, kind of mixed up. Mass housing can be luxury housing if they don't hardly so. Mass housing can be affordable housing. Mass housing just means production of the housing in large quantities. It could be any of these segmentations. But when you come to luxury housing, I've talked about it for the rich. You tax them affordable housing, which is where the organized private sector plays. You make it easier for them. Like Mr. Wicke said, don't come and collect land at 5 million and speculate and sell it for 50 million. Because the developer that buys the land at 50 million has 50 million as the base where he's going to be able to use to pay the price of the house. Because I mean, I could have a full lecture of three hours and it would not be enough. Because in paying the price of the house, you talk of cost of land, you talk of cost of funds, you talk of cost of materials, you talk of your overheads. So cost of land is usually a major component. If my cost of land to start with is 50 million, because I get the second hand. Now, when I add the other cost, I'm going to be selling that house about maybe about 100 million. But if I got it direct and the cost of land was just 5 million, I have knocked off 45 million. So that house becomes much more affordable. But the most important part is the social housing. Social housing is the exclusive responsibility of the government, which must be considered a social infrastructure and the government must as a right, as a necessity, as an obligation, you know, make housing available as stated in the Housing Policy of Nigeria where I was privileged to be the vice chairman of that committee that bettered that housing policy. The wandering psychopath or the madman is entitled to housing, to shelter, to accommodation. So social housing is the prime responsibility of government that must be taken as social infrastructure. Luckily, the current minister of housing is a very, very close friend. And some days back, we spent probably up to two hours looking at these issues and he made a particular striking statement. He said that the current president has the, what's the word, the political will. I like that. He has the political will to address the issue of housing. And then some days back, you heard even the vice president talking a lot about housing. So housing and today you have a major paper taking housing as a major headline. So we're starting to come to terms with certain realities and these realities are what will help this government because if this, think about it. The last time you heard about housing was when Shagari housing. Imagine, just think about it. And then in Lagos, you had Jackonday housing. So subsequent, you know, governments have neglected housing. So we now have housing deficit and several figures thrown out, 30 million, 25 million, 17 million. Luckily again, we are having the sensors that we're going to have. Housing is one of the major components of that housing. So I want to really plead with Nigerians that, you know, there's a way government works. Government works on lines of least resistance. They apply themselves to what people talk about and want to be heard. That's why in the housing policy, it was written that the cries of the people woke up governments. That's the expression that was used. Woke up government. So let the professionals in the industry talk about it. Let the average Nigerian who is feeling the pains of the high cost of housing be an advocate. Write about it. Talk about it. Don't only leave it one year. It took who comes and shouts in self-housing. I mean, November 1, I'll be 60. So some of us are on the retirement lane and we need to hand over to younger people. That's why I'm happy to mention a young guy like Adebayo who does the housing show. He has a one-man riot squad and he's doing well. Let others come in. Let the media talk about it. Let them, like you've done today, giving a major segment to housing. Let others join what plus TV Africa has just done. What I think is the Guardian did. No, no. I think it was in the Guardian. The Guardian. The Guardian. It was the Guardian. Awesome. Awesome. So let us make housing a major national issue and then government will find that synergy to know that he's doing something. No politician wants to invest where the people are not interested. But when they realize that the people are really interested in housing, they are going to devote themselves to it, devote the resources to it and one of the brilliant things they've done, two things. One, to create bring back that minister of housing. When it was worked on housing, it was a poor bride of a man that did not even have any interest. Everything was about works. But now you have housing and not just housing. We have round peg in a round hole bringing somebody who is a major player in that industry, the former MD of Federal Mortgage Bank to be the minister of housing. So he understands the game plan. You don't need to start to explain things to him. As we were talking, it was like polls were just attracting. I think I'm using a wrong word because I think it's unlike polls that attract. But it was like two can play, two cannot work together except they be agreed. That's what the Bible said. So we were agreeing and the ideas he has, the energy he has, the drive that he has, coupled with the political will of Mr. President, I know that housing is going to be a major agenda and certain fundamental issues are going to be addressed. Let me not sound like a pessimist, but I do hope that because we have seen a lot of good people gone bad when they joined politics, when they are in that foray there. And let me also hope that this political will that Mr. President has developed now is going to really work out because in Lagos, I doubt if that housing was taken seriously when he was at the helm of affairs in Lagos State. A lot of other things were done, but housing, I'm not too sure about that. But if he has the political will, it's a very good thing. I'll tell you this. I'll tell you this about President Tunibu. He's at the risk of being misunderstood. He's a sucker for deals. He's a deals man. He puts his money where he is. He puts his mouth where his money is. So in Lagos, he has his priorities. In Nigeria, he's trying to establish his priorities. Okay? So he hits where he knows he can break. So that's why we are making, and the minister, if it was not somebody who was interested, would not send for me. There are many people that would not touch me with a 10-foot pole because I am bad market for them. They know why. Those who want to do deals, they don't go near Ngaetok. But once you call Ngaetok, it means you are looking for results. You are looking for how to get it done. And for him to send for me, first of all, to have that spending time, it means that he's not somebody that has a minister at this time. He's not somebody who is looking for deals, but somebody who is looking for results. Okay. Sorry. The concern is, why in the first place should government homes be such that people cannot reach anymore? Because you talked about one of the problems that housing has, which is land. Now, the Land Use Act practically gives federal government free land, no matter how we see it, but it will not acquire the land at a price that a private individual will acquire the land. So what is that thing that really makes federal government, apart from the fact that people are not crying? But what is it that will make government homes so expensive that the people cannot reach anymore? I've said this time and time and time again. And the day Nigeria and Nigerians listen to me, there will be a marked turning point. We are always expecting a dog to meow or a cat to bark, and it will not happen. What do I mean by that? During a election, you collect money from these people. You don't interrogate who they are. They sell their souls and their conscience to buy your votes. We collect this money. We pretend we don't know. It's like something happens to me or to us. And then when these people have gotten the mandate, so to speak, and get to office, we expect them to serve you. Who is that man that will pay you to serve you? It will not happen.  I contested the last election, and I would tell you for free that I sold five of my houses. And not everybody thinks the way I do, and they are selling lies I told myself I would not cross. I could do that, I could afford it, but assuming that I had mortgaged those and I hoped to get them and become a governor, what do you think happens? You think of how to recoup and pay back. That's it. So when the governor comes in, this is the nexus, his first thought and mindset is, where will I make money? And within that context, the land use act comes in handy. Governors get in there, almost all of them. I don't want to use the same brush on everybody because if I had won the election or if I had been declared the winner, I would also be a governor. So I believe that there are one, two, three that mean well that could have done what I had in mind to do, or I still have in mind to know we are still in the tribal now, so you never finish anyway. But on a serious note, to them the land use act is power and not service. Service means who can get this title to bring in industries and do this and do that. Who can make land available? Who can come and build? I'm going to set up land and infrastructure. Can you come and build? How much are you going to deliver from? Remove the cost and give you land for free so that the house of 20 million can come down to 12 million or the house of 12 million can come down to 6 million and be more affordable. That is service to the people. No, the governors are who come and take this land and sell it. So you allocate the land for 5 million, they sell it for 15 million. You are just an agent of the system. The governors are, you didn't support me so that your land, I'm not going to give you see of all needs. So that industry you wanted to do, you can no longer do it because the money, the land title is not there. And without land title, which is foundational, you cannot get funding, you cannot get funding, you cannot do business. So they don't think that way. They think in terms of power. They think in terms of retaliating. They think of being vindictive. They think of using it to subject you and bring you down to a level where you must support them by fire by force. So this mindset has to do with the person and how the person got there. So if you don't interrogate that, which is the work of the office of the citizen, if you don't do that, the moment the guy takes the mandate from you or just four years, keep quiet and relax and let the man enjoy. It's like you build a house. You have a right to keep that house for yourself. But then you lease that house to a tenant. You drop an agreement. The tenant pays you. Okay? You can't be going to enter the man's bedroom and say it's my house. No, you've got to allow him peaceful occupation of that space within the period for which he has paid you your rent.  Okay? Now, if you tell the man, you know what? Take this house for free. Don't pay me a dime. But I can come in anytime and I expect I can enter anytime. Or pay me this amount. It is yours. Now, if that house is for free and it can come in anytime and that is the agreement, you can do that. People come to you and say, we want to be the governor of the state. And you say, mobilize me. Pay me. Settle me. Vote by me. When the man said all that to you, the understanding is that you don't collect your four years now. So just pack and wait. But if you say, if Nigerians, if the office of the citizen can come and say, we want to know what you want to do. We want to see your game plan. Mr. A, Mr. B, Mr. C. And then they forget this mentality of big parties, small parties. Parties don't run in the government. Human beings do. So all this obsession with the big parties, this is something that we're not thinking. You understand me? Somebody from a small party can be the best driver. You need a driver. Someone from the smallest party can be a big driver. Once you acknowledge that and everybody queues behind that person, he automatically becomes a big person. That's what happened in Labour Party movement. There was Labour Party that was neither there or there, or NNPP that was neither here nor there. It was the answer to me. Then Mr. Kwam Kwaso came in, Energizer System. Mr. Peter became an Energizer System. So what we need is, going forward, us profiling and interrogating persons and then queuing up behind those persons. When we do that, then the big parties will sit up knowing there is no longer a birthright. And when they sit up, they will address your issues and problems. Okay. We've done enough on this housing. I know that we can still talk more about them, but let's move on to another issue, still on the Guardian newspaper. It's a very small headline. The Cano Suspense, another Costco director for alleged palliative diversion. And then the question that never gets old, are we not making a mistake with these palliatives? Is it not just naming the same thing with something different? You know, I have always from day one. You know, government is foundational. We have people that get into government and have no understanding of what government is. And it aches my heart. We are, if you look at chapter 2, section 14, subsection 2b of our constitution, it gives what is the matching order. It says that the security and the welfare of the people shall, in legal palace, incidentally yesterday, I was in the dog for the first time in my life. You know, maybe in November when I was 60, but for the first time in my whole life, I was there in the dog and I had 11 people, parties, whatever, bombing almost a total of about 30, you know, lawyers descending on me for almost three hours. Lord have mercy. I'm not in the mercy and the grace of God. No, coming back to where we were. Now, the security in legal palace shall is stronger than must. So when they say the security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government. So anybody that is going to go into government, you know, that must get into government. Can you hear me now? Yes, I can. Good, thank you. That person must understand that it's about service to the people. How do we relate it to palliative? Now, if you know that it is about service to the people, you will think in terms of what you will do that is sustainable and in the interest of the people. What we are doing, this thing called palliative, another word for palliative to me is politics. How will I, as a private sector person, go to that point of carrying 20 billion to buy food for people to eat in one week and it is finished? It doesn't make sense to me as a private sector person. It doesn't. It doesn't make sense to me as a private sector person. It just doesn't. I would rather have carried that 20 billion segmented into 5,500,000 naira, profile young people and giving this money to them for them to start small businesses after I have trained them. I would rather do that. And this 500,000 that have trained the people and giving the money to them, they are going to, number one, employ people. Number two, they are going to generate, you know, produce and product. They are going to stimulate the economy. So my 20 billion is a seed that I have sown that is going to grow. That is a mindset that makes sense to me. Now extrapolate that assuming the governor of Akwaibon state did what I did and the governor of another state, I don't know which state to call, just call another state, do you understand me, gave the palliatives fast forward one year after. Those who were collecting this palliative and within two weeks they finished eating, they cannot have it again, they are angry. Do you understand me, why do you put sugar in my, you know, I drink my curry with salt. And I'm happy. You now come and give me sugar and you take my test but from salt to sugar. Just when I'm starting to enjoy the sugar, you say you don't finish, go back to salt. You've created a problem for me. But if you allowed me to now be eating my salt and then you give me something to do and from what I do, I cannot buy sugar because it's from my sweat. Even the way I use that sugar, I'll be taking one cube of sugar, cutting in two and managing it until when I cannot use one full cube of sugar. But when it is free sugar, you find the person carrying five cubes, putting in one bowl of curry and at the end of the day probably developing diabetes. So what have you done? You have created a dependency syndrome on this person and like a fish duped out of the deep, you have left the person, you know, hanging and he leads to frustration. He can lead to drug. He can lead to all manner of vices, you know. So you've not done well. That's not thinking in governance. So now, whereas that of an acquirable person would have now started to build his business, employ people and how many years down the line that person is having a flourishing business because you invested the so-called palliative funds instead of eating that palliative funds. So that is where I want to raise my case. Okay. Well, we'll move to another thing. We'll go to the punch newspaper now and there is a headline there. As parents protest as more universities hike fees, the federal government was talking like, you know, it's going to be easy. Then we'll have loans. We will have these and that. This is September already. As I said, loans will start, you know, being given to the people or the students to make sure that they can still continue to go to school. Now, universities are just hiking their fees. You'll hear this one here, the other one there. Some of them are taking their fees as high as 100% more. Some of them are as high as 200 or even 300%. Yes, a school we were talking about yesterday that had fees as low as 19,000. Now, that same school is paying 89,200 for the same cost that they were paying 19,004. Somebody who did not plan for this, whose salary has not increased, whose livelihood has not become better, how can he even pay? So I don't know what is really going on. Parents are protesting and even the students are protesting. I remember yesterday we were carrying a story about how the security forces mobilized and went to UNILAC because in UNILAC the school fees have gone up and all that. I don't know what your comments will be. What will be the solution to this kind of thing? What is really happening? Can our educational system survive it? You see, if I was to write an application which I've never done in my life, if I was to write an application, it would be to be the DG of the National Orientation Agency or one other one that I would not say but it's not a minister, no, no, no, not any of those things. There's something about housing that I like, okay? But if I was to write an application, it is for that of the DG of National Orientation Agency and if Mr. President is to make success and not politics of Nigeria, it should be the minister or that agency should report directly to the presidency. It should personally oversee national orientation because there is a disconnect between government and the people because of the amount of lies that government have told us over the years so that people don't believe government and you need the people to succeed in any government. You need the people. Why am I bringing this in? If you look at the universities, now, when you are protesting, why are you protesting? You are protesting because you think they should not do that. Why should they not do that? It is because you cannot afford. That is on one hand. On the other hand, why are the people raising the funds because the argument will be taken from two sides, the protesters and then the institution. I've told you why the protesters are protesting they cannot afford and we understand why they cannot afford everything is going south.  They need to maintain the infrastructure. They need to pay the people. They need to bring a new set of paradigms and parameters and things to improve the learning process. They need money. They do not have money and costs are high. They need money. So how do they get money? They get money either by hiking the fees or getting subsidy from government because they can only get money from subsidy from government or hiking fees. Now, do they have money from government? No, because government does not have money again. Government wants subsidy on electricity. They want subsidy on petrol. We want subsidy on housing. We want subsidy. Look, we have needs of 500,000. But what is available in the past is 50,000. The question is, can we let the people know honestly and sincerely that it's only 50,000 we have and that the need is 500,000 and that it cannot go and that we need to come down to make certain sacrifices. We now start with ourselves. Yesterday, I saw the president come down in a return. I think yesterday or today is back. And I just, I think there were less than 20 people that were there to receive him. And I'm like, oh Lord, thank God it seems this president is starting to listen because in the past, you'll be waiting for 30 minutes for the convoy to pass.  And the time has gone with Mr. President to say I don't want that again. It's enough. Don't come to me. We have no business that agrees. So that you see a president passing with a convoy of about 20 cars and all those hangars on and not following him. Why are you following me? Follow me for what? Don't do that again. I don't want that. So when he starts by himself showing that example, the National Assembly follows suit and you see people cutting down costs. Then you now start to have parents who now the national orientation will now let you see that having university education is not necessarily having better life. Why do I say so? One of the places I like to go and buy shawarma in Uyo, it's done by a graduate who spent four years and the resources of his parents doing what was absolutely unnecessary because by the time he finished secondary school he had this passion for that kind of trade. He could easily have gone to a catering school where in less than six to nine months or one year maximum he would have graduated and started the business. But he went to four years in school. After four years of excruciating pain he came back to go to and do six months in a catering school to do what he's doing now. There's need to orientate the minds of Nigerians that this so-called university education that our parents say we must have. You can do what you are doing and then be doing extension classes or you'll be doing, you know, offline universities. There's a way it's called, you know. Or you will be taking courses while you are doing your business online. It's available now. You can get certification. So there's need for a setting national reorientation because the pressure on parents to get university education where you come back and you achieve nothing, there's need for a national policy to educate Nigerians that this university, you don't really need it like that. And if you need it, this is the implication and this is how it's got to do. And the next inciting children are brought. If you know what parents are going through you will hit your life. And I say my... I don't know. It's because some of these things are happening and then you turn around and see is it really, am I really the one who is supposed to do the sacrifice? Like you said, the president has to start with himself maybe with his cabinet and everybody else. But in a situation where you find these people who are asking you to do the sacrifice, not sacrificing anything, they're taking even more from... Right now, Labour, yesterday it was on the headlines, that Labour is threatening to go on that model of all strike as they call it, model of all strikes. One of the reasons is that they said it's an insult to now gather like six families and give them one bag of rice when one legislator is taking about 100 million. So why should the people be the ones to sacrifice for a few people to just fit fat? That's why it is going to be very difficult to do that work as the managing director of national orientation if you were given that position. So what would you really tell them? You are so right because it is one reason they will not want me there because if you are the DG of national orientation you've got to be like the law lady.  Do you understand me? The Bible says that wisdom is profitable to direct. Yes, wisdom will direct you. But you're going to have to do the loud one outside and you must have necessity. Do the quiet one inside. What is the quiet one inside? You must let Mr. President know the fact but you're not going to do that on the pages of the newspaper or on plus TV Africa. No, you're not going to do that because there is a law that says you do not demystify leadership but you are going to have to do it inside. You've got to let them know. You have to have that interface with government people who are not doing the right thing and you tell them the right thing and they come if they are adamant and they will not do it. You tell Mr. President, Mr. President, I came here to be successful for your government and right now I'm not being successful honestly and sincerely because I'm not given, you've not given me that quality school backing. Let me tell you what El Rufa did, my brother, my friend. He wanted to demolish houses. You know what he did? He went to OBJ, then president and said, this is what I want to do because we need to sanitize our budget. The president said, do it. He said, sir, there will be consequences. The president said, do it. He said, sir, let me give you an instance. The chairman of our party, his house, no day deprived, the right place. Sir, the general, this general, these other poor houses, it will go down low. The president said, go ahead. He said, sir, when he goes down, the wahala will come from you to fire me to put, sir, should I go? The president said, go, bam, bam, bam. Jim, he brought down the house of the, you know, chairman of the PDP then, went on this general. Wait, by the time he brought down three houses, Nigeria was on fire. And of course, expectedly, the pressure came in torrents. Mr. President, you know Baba now? Baba do like say, hey, wait here. He said, they brought down, they said, where do you the house?  Do you understand me? What am I trying to say? He gave El Rufai the impetus.  That is the thing that Wike is trying to do now. And so long as he has a political will of the leader, he'll be able to execute his agenda. What am I trying to bring down? Whoever is the national, the digital national orientation, he should sit down with Mr. President and not be a psycho fan. You know, this is our party. No. It's a national assignment, sir. How far do I go? This is my game plan. This is the way to get about it. For us to be seen as being serious because it's in Nigerians don't trust you. So I'm going to stand from in-house. You know, I will not make it public but I'm going to show in-house as an example of what good behavior is going on and tell others to follow suit. And Mr. President says, go ahead and I'll come inside. I'll tell you guy, what people are doing is not okay. So you need to change it.  Is that what he did? He will fire one person. By the time he fires two people, when I come to your place and tell you this is not right, you will do right. And then I'll now tell Nigerians, this is the way to go. You will succeed. But if you don't have the political will of Mr. President and you want to do it, don't go up. Yeah, after the show, someone will call you and say you are not sounding Nigerian. Because there are not many people who will dare to do that which is something that should be done normally but there are not people who would dare do that because when you have circle funds is because there are people who are ready to listen.  So you have circle funds on one hand. You have people who want their egos to be massaged on the other hand. And so the circle goes on and on and on and on. But right now, let me just check in very, very briefly. Our leaders don't know Nigerians unfortunately. Nigerians are the most trusting and most believing of people. Nigerians are the easiest people to preside over if you know them. Or maybe they know Nigerians too well because they know that they are going to give you, they are going to take for instance, fuel subsidy that touches the lives of everybody including those people that do not travel and then give you rise, which in some states now we are hearing that you have to have PVC before you get the rise. Some people might decide not to vote. I'm not sure that at this point is a crime in Nigeria that if you don't vote, you're going to jail. So why are they not entitled to these palliatives for instance? You are asking them to bring to this. Do you know what I'm required on that? Do you know what I'm required on that? It's not a crime, but I'm off of the opinion that it is a civil responsibility that if you are not willing to take part in, you should leave the country. What about the people who cannot even vote? Because they are not up to age. There are some people who are off and at the age of 17. No, no, no. If you are below age, no, no, no, no. You can be smart by half by sending your children. You understand me. But if you as an adult choose not to embark on leadership recruitment process which is voting, then you are one of the problems of this country. But I'm sure that is not where you are. Yeah, that's not it. So if people elect to be neutral for whatever reason it is, for as long as it's not a crime, that you are entitled also to the enjoyment of the people of that vicinity. If you make a road, for instance, it doesn't matter where you come from. It doesn't matter what you do. You can pass through that road. But like I always say, palliatives and then fuel subsidy removal for me is like, you know, you destroy the bridge and then you are buying boats for people to ferry across the river that everybody could have just either elected to trek across it or use a car or a bicycle or anything. Then you are now buying boats and then you are taking five people at a time, two people at a time, 10 people at a time. For me, it doesn't make sense. So in some states I will mention the name Emo State. The opposition party came out to say that they are opposing what the governor, hope it was a demise, saying that if you don't have PVC you cannot be entitled to the whatever palliative, maybe it is rice or Indomie or something that they are giving to the people. So what about the people who tried honestly to get PVCs and could not get? They will starve to death. What about the people who are just coming back into the country who may not have been here when the PVCs have been taken because right now it is not a continuous process. They will starve to death and all this kind of things. And then we heard also yesterday on the news where people were saying that okay they are contributing, they are trying to support the federal government and they are a group in support of the presidency and some members of the APC. So they got some palliatives as well, rice, which is palliative now but it will talk palliatives is rice nowadays. And they said anytime they are distributing these things the party chairman must be around. Even though members of the committee are on ground they cannot share if the party chairman in that locality is not around. It tells you that possibly party members are going to be considered first no matter how indigent people who are not part of that party are. So it is a problem that I cannot wrap my head around and we are talking right now. But please let's leave that now and go to the nation newspaper briefly now because our time is running out. Employers reject NLC's plan to shut down economy. Remember that NLC is threatening that it will go on strike for various reasons. Reasons that will benefit their members and also reasons that will benefit the Nigerian people. Now employers are rejecting NLC's plan to shut down the economy. There is that dichotomy. There is that separation. There is that division within NLC and NLC seems to be the only opposition even though people do not trust them that much nowadays but they seem to be the only opposition voice or the voice of the people when they are talking and interacting with government. Now there are these divisions. Does it not bother you? Yeah, it does bother me but in terms of I think there are two sides of the coin. There is NLC. There is employers. There is employees. No employer will be happy that the economy is shut down. I am an employer and you see I am not going to be able to tell my staff when you don't work I will not pay you. I will be able to tell them that but how am I going to pay you when I don't have the money? How do I have money when you are not working? So it is employers are concerned I think it is only natural and should be expected. On the other hand I am an active part of NLC and I think that government should come clean on some of these matters because there is too much of, you know, of pettiness, you know there is lack of transparency and you know this fight that you are having you give one bag of rice to 12 families what they didn't add was for six months in fact for eternity okay because there is no there is nothing that shows that palliatives will come every six months. You understand me but what you are saying is that for these six months, you know so you are giving a bag of rice to 12 families to eat for eternity because it makes sense I could understand if government does not have money but this speculation that the national assembly is getting so much money what is so difficult on coming clean on some of these matters no no it is not a hundred million no no it is 50 there could be exact duration but the question is exactly how much is it so I understand the sentiment expressed. I would like to thank you architect Ezekiel Nyaito for coming on the program today we have had a marathon one this morning we would like to say thank you to you for being a part of the show I appreciate it God bless you thanks so much as I rush back to my tribunal okay good luck with that good luck would like to come and have that happy hour with you in Aqaba you are most welcome I would like to thank Ezekiel Nyaito public affairs analyst who was talking with us from Uyuhakwa bomb state and we will take a short break when we return we will be looking at your cardiovascular health as it is so just stay with us
