2015: 14 aspirants gang up against Wike NATH OMAME, Port Harcourt

F

ourteen governorship aspirants for the February 26, 2015, gubernatorial election in Rivers State, under the aegis of the Peoples’ Democratic Party, PDP, have formed a coalition against the governorship aspiration of the immediate past Minister of State for Education, Nyesom Wike. The aspirants working in concert on the platform of the Rivers Mainstream Coalition, yesterday, staged a pro-rotation rally, at the Liberation Stadium, Elekahia, in Port Harcourt, the capital of Rivers State. Wike and the other 14 aspirants who are canvassing that the principle of zoning as enshrined in Section (7) (3), of the PDP constitution should be upheld have all paid and collected their expression of interest and nomination forms. All the governorship as-

pirants who spoke at the rally insisted that the principle of zoning which is precipitated on the time-honoured upland/riverine dichotomy should be adhered to while choosing the governorship candidate of the PDP for the 2015 gubernatorial election. Speaking at the rally, an aspirant and former Chairman of the Presidential Task Force on Power, Chief

Bekinbo Dagogo-Jack, explained that the call for power rotation in Rivers State is popular because it is the appropriate thing to do. “An Ikwerre man cannot take over from another Ikwerre man. There are other ethnic stocks in the state and no amount of intimidation will forestall the on-going campaign to thwart Wike’s ambition to succeed Governor

Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi who like Wike is from the ethnic Ikwerre stock. Barrister Lulu-Briggs, who also addressed the rally, maintained that “our forebears have devised an ingenious bipolar method that allows all ethnic nationalities to have equal access to the governorship. The upland/riverine dichotomy has come to stay. We have

no other choice but to abide by it since it conforms with the position of the PDP constitution�. He asked: “Anyone who has followed the political trend in Rivers State for the past 35 years will concur that there is indeed for a political arrangement that is predicated on the existence of the upland/riverine dichotomy as it is commonly referred to.

Ask yourself: does it make any sense to you that in a multi-ethnic state like Rivers State an ethnic stock would want to produce the governor of the state for four consecutive terms of four years each? Now, tell me, what is the rationale behind such a thoroughly skewed, strange and sudden development?�

T

he Niger Delta D e ve l o p m e n t Commission (NDDC) in conjunction with Global Hands Medical Foundation has commenced comprehensive free medical services to several oil-producing communities in Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni Local government Area of Rivers State. The seven-day free healthcare which is taking place at the Maternity

The Chief Medical Director for the programme, Dr. Titus Antai, who was impressed by the success already achieved, said that the massive turn-out of the people to take advantage of the free healthcare was highly encouraging.

Highlighting the ben^ÂŞ~‹_ qw_ ~]^_ _ wj^^_ medical programme, the Chief Medical Director noted that it was very useful for the poor and less privileged people.

South East NUJ plans media resource centre BONIFACE Umuahia

T

OKORO,

he South East Zone of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) is planning to embark on establishing a multi-million naira Resource Centre in Enugu to facilitate journalism practice in the zone. Vice President of the Zone, Deacon Chris Isiguzo, who made this known in Umuahia, Abia State, while briefing newsmen on the forthcoming third edition of the South East Media Summit at the NUJ Press Centre,

Umuahia said that Enugu State government has shown tremendous interest in the project. “We’ll therefore use the opportunity of this year’s summit to raise the necessary funds to help facilitate ~]^_~x‰^˜qJ_qw_~]}‹_x``˜}’zqjtant project,� Isiguzo said. He explained that the forum was part of the social responsibility of the media and provides the forum for media practitioners to interx—~_ |}~]_ Œ}J^j^Ž~_ xj’‹_ qw_ government, civil society organisations and the private sector operators in the zone. “The aim is to create a ro-

bust forum where issues that border on good governance, media practice and investment as well as the nation’s democratisation process are discussed with a view to creating an improved atmosphere and environment for the general wellbeing of people,� Isiguzo said. This year’s theme is “Harnessing the Dividends of Nigeria’s Diversity,� and former Minister of Information and Communication, Mr Frank Nweke Jnr will deliver the keynote lecture of the Summit slated to hold at Michael Okpara Auditorium Monday, November 3, 2014,

with a former Governor of Ebonyi State, Dr Sam Egwu as Chairman. The event would be preceded by a workshop for journalists in the Zone on Sunday at Villa Roy Hotel, Umuahia where a former Deputy National President of NUJ and a former Commissioner for Information in Ebonyi State, Chief Abia Onyike, would take his colleagues through the rudiments of journalism practice while Dr GOC Okafor, a Consultant with the Federal Medical Centre Umuahia, would also deliver a lecture on stress management.

House of Representatives aspirant from Abia State, Dr. ACB Agbazuere, has declared that his election into the Lower Chamber of the National Assembly would mark the beginning of his people’s long walk to freedom. Agbazuere, a former Commissioner for Information and Strategy and immediate past Adviser to the Governor on Conflict Management and Resolution, is aspiring to represent Isiala Ngwa Federal Constituency comprising Isiala Ngwa North and South local government areas. He assured that if given the mandate to represent his people at Abuja, he would give them effective representation and attract development to the area, saying that those who represented the area for the past 16 years have failed to attract dividends of democracy to transform the constituency. Speaking with Newswatch Times after picking the Expression of Interest and Nomination forms at People Democratic Party (PDP) office in Umuahia, Agbazuere said he has the experience, exposure and pedigree to give his people an effective voice at the centre. “What we are embarking upon today is a long walk to freedom. Our people have long sought freedom. Our people have long sought salvation. Our people have long sought adequate and effective representation. These we have lacked for over 16 years. 16 years of darkness. “They (people of Isiala Ngwa) resolved, came to me, spoke to me, appealed to my conscience and after pondering over this with my God, I said of what use am I if I cannot serve God and my people. I have decided to come and the difference will be clear,� he said.

Issues in mutilated, scarce Naira notes

M

ore than one year after the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) promised to start replacing diseased and mutilated currencies with fresh mints, the acute scarcity of new notes, especially in lower denominations, is worsening transaction furore in marketplaces. CBN authorities have not deemed it right to inform the public why they have reneged on many promises. Daily Newswatch had persistently pointed out the transaction hassles caused by severe shortage of lower denomination currencies. The hassles followed the inability of ~]^_ _~q_wˆ`ÂŞ`_}~‹_zjqÂ’}‹^_~q_ print and circulate in June 2013 wj^‹]_—ˆjj^Ž—}^‹_~q_j^z`x—^_jq&^ÂŽ_ notes.

Worse still is that the CBN is zjqÂŞ~}ÂŽÂ?_wjqÂ’_~]^_—}j—ˆ`x~}qÂŽ_ of dirty, mutilated and smelly currencies via its increasing its sorting charges or penalty on commercial banks. The CBN penalty for sorting mutilated currencies for deposit banks had risen from N3,000 to N6,000 in 2008 to N12,000 now. Commercial banks, which distribute currencies to end users, had resisted paying the surcharge, arguing that sorting responsibility belongs to the apex bank. They further argue that they incur extra costs as mutilated currencies damage their Automated Teller Machine and therefore reissue expired currencies. However, Okoroafor shifted blame, “Banks have failed to make the needed investments in

Letters to the Editor Gov Amosun vs. Deputy Adesegun

O

gun State Deputy Governor, Prince Segun Adesegun, complained against the Governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun over denied welfare. It beats my imagination how such a simple xÂŽÂŒ_’ˆŽŒxÂŽ^_Â’x&^j_—qˆ`ÂŒ_Â?^~_~q_ the press. Well, we are in the era of stomach infrastructure! While I don’t want to be drawn into the politics of Ogun or what ulterior motives, if any, might have informed the complaints, there is no one in this country who does not know that one of the most frugal governors in Nigeria is Mr Amosun. He’s also one of the most hard-working governors. I read in 2011 where he told his people that he and members of his ~^xÂ’_]xÂŒ_—qÂ’^_~q_Â’x‰^_‹x—j}ª—^¨_ ^_ said things were so bad in the state ~]x~_~]^“_—qˆ`ÂŒ_ÂŽq~_xJqjÂŒ_~q_`}{^_Â?}Â?¨_ So I was not surprised when I read later that he slashed the salaries of zq`}~}—x`_q-—^_]q`ÂŒ^j‹¨ The Deputy complained of allowances for September and October but everyone in Nigeria knows what is happening with FAAC and Federation Account. I’m even surprised that there

is no salary crisis in Ogun. For two months governors have cried out for ÂŽq~_Â?^&}ÂŽÂ?_x``q—x~}qÂŽ_x~_x``¨_ The good thing is that the Deputy Governor has not accused Amosun of living in luxury while asking others to tighten their belts. He has not accused the governor of constitutional breaches. He has also not complained of paying for his residence because I gathered that Amosun’s aides pay some money monthly from their salaries for the government quarters. Nonetheless, the governor should look into the complaints and see what could be done because there are mischief-makers and political opportunists waiting to make a mountain out of a molehill and see a crisis where there is none in order to rig elections. I also urge the Deputy to see the Governor and sort things out away from public glare. There’s good news coming from Ogun locally and internationally on a daily basis.

Before his exit, however, former CBN Deputy Director, Operations, Dr. Tunde Lemo promised fresh notes from August 2013 (after reneging on earlier June date) and that smaller denominations of N5, N10, N20 and N50 of easy-fade polymer currencies would be replaced with paper notes. This is July 2014, and the public is x|x}~}ÂŽÂ?_wˆ`ÂŞ`Â’^ÂŽ~_qw_Â?jq‰^ÂŽ_ promises. Contrary to Lemo’s view then and now, the scarcity of the lower denomination is now a source of quarrels and ÂŞÂ?]~}ÂŽÂ?_}ÂŽ_Â’xj‰^~‹Š_‹~qj^‹_xÂŽÂŒ_ transportation business as buyers and sellers feud over “changeâ€?.

The currency scarcity dispute is worsened by the recirculation of mutilated and smelly currencies rejected by buyers and sellers. Commercial banks re-circulate diseased notes, which should have been properly sorted and destroyed by the CBN. CBN’s major error is that it phased out and stopped the production of polymer currencies in lower denominations six years ago long before it thought of printing the paper replacement. What happened within the six years of policy mishap is the recirculation of mutilated and jq&^ÂŽ_—ˆjj^Ž—}^‹_Â?^—xˆ‹^_ÂŽ^|_ notes were not forthcoming, despite Nigeria having two currency printing Mints in Lagos and Abuja. ‰qjqxwqj_]xÂŒ_xŒ’}&^ÂŒ_~]x~_ CBN Act 2007 empowers it to issue legal tender currencies to serve as acceptable medium qw_^¤Â—]xÂŽÂ?^Š_zjqÂ’q~^_^-—}^ÂŽ~_ payment system and to promote ‹qˆŽŒ_Â?ÂŽq~_‹}—‰`“‘_ÂŞÂŽxŽ—}x`_ system. With the heated furore generated during transactions in the marketplace, CBN’s failure is glaring. Rather than threaten

to instigate the Police to hound Naira hawkers, the CBN should redress the scarcity that has ^Ž—qˆjxÂ?^ÂŒ_q-—}x`_—qjjˆz~}qÂŽ_ and hawking. Commercial banks have rejected CBN’s directive and surcharge to sort the mutilated notes so that the disabled currencies are returned to CBN for destruction. With the six-year failure of the currency sorting arrangement with money deposit banks, the CBN should immediately take back its responsibility of sorting currencies because its failure to print new notes is the source of crisis. With the reckless spending in hundreds of billions on non core functions, the CBN cannot claim it lacked funds to perform core duty of protecting Naira’s legal tender. Therefore, dirty and mutilated notes should be withdrawn from circulation immediately, while new currencies are printed urgently as promised.

Fayose, it’s time to work

I

n the last few weeks, new the Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Ayodele Fayose, has dissipated too much energy trading words with his predecessor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, over how Ekiti State, also known as the Fountain of Knowledge has been badly run and why things are bound to go from bad to worse. Fayose seems to be pre-occupied with petty matters making many people to wonder whether the governor really have much to offer his people. Almost daily, the media is awash with how state resources have been wasted on white elephant projects, mismanaged and channelled into wrong use thus portraying the last administration as being wasteful, insensitive, ‘after self comfort’ and terribly corrupt. This time around, Fayose had among others, accused his predecessor of spending a whopping sum of N50m on beds in the newly-built Government House and another N100m tax payers’ money on toilets and bathrooms. Not only that, the helmsman in Ekiti has branded the N3.3b lodge built by the ex-governor as ill-conceived, misplaced and too costly for the state to maintain. Over the years, Fayose has remained a highly controversial person even before he became governor under the first dispensation, before his eventual impeached from office in 2006. One of the main accusations against him as a controversial person alleged youthful exuberance and penchant for violence. While it is completely not out of place for a new government to appraise the situation on ground with a view to working towards effective service delivery and good governance, which not only promote accountability and transparency, it could also give a clear picture of some sort of where-we-are-coming-from, wherewere-are-going and what-it-takes-to-get-there. But the way Fayose is going about his seems to be different. To move the state forward, government should painstakingly actualise the key component of its five major restoration agenda that is hinged on: virile intergovernmental relations, regional integration, effective local government administration, sustainable developmental objectives and highly professionalised public service. Certainly, while a lot could be achieved in terms of federal-state relations because of the existing party influence in which the state is bound to enjoy with the central government with the same party platform, there is need to maintain cordial relations between the executive and the state legislators dominated by the

opposition party, All Progressives Congress (APC), which appears to be worsening by the day. This should be the priority of Fayose. He should not waste precious time on intimidating the state legislators to decamp to his party. Rather, he should see the present arrangement, where both parties have a reasonable representation in the house as good for democracy, though the APC controls more members. Already, this tension is evident in the confrontation between the state government and the state House of Assembly with the sealing off a filling station belonging to the Speaker, Dr. Adewale Omirin. Secondly, regional integration is something he cannot do in a hurry. He would need to take time to study events as they unfold. Apart from Ekiti, the only state that is controlled by PDP is Ondo, which recently joined the PDP family following the recent defection of its governor, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko from the Labour Party. Without sounding pessimistic, this integration would remain elusive until the South-West governors align themselves politically. I don’t foresee this happening for now. On local government administration, Fayose should prove his mettle as a truly grassroots politician by courting the local councils. He should ensure that funds meant for the LGAs are released promptly. The 16 Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs), created by Fayemi - as I

!""# $ % &' ( ) * +

have observed in my articles titled, “Fayemi’s Last Minute Rush in Office� could be the first casualty in the new governor’s stride to bring governance to the doorsteps of the people. Also, the developmental objectives mapped out for implementation of the above should be well designed and executed. This should holistically cover security, empowerment, agricultural development, infrastructural transformation, health, education, science and technology while the fraying nerves of civil servants that have embarked on industrial action in the past few weeks should be calmed. Meanwhile, I take exception to the governor’s tokenism when he announced to his people that: “I am already grooming your Christmas chicken and your bags of rice are coming�, through the office of Special Assistant on Stomach Infrastructure and Special Duties. This is rather childish. Also, all outstanding remuneration and entitlements due public servants in the state should be paid within the next two months. In line with the directive that all public service personnel issues including recent appointments, promotions and discipline should objectively be reviewed. This should be done with all sincerity of purpose. He should urgently ensure that the dignity of the judiciary, which was ruffled a few weeks back, is restored and preserved. He could investigate the affairs of the last administration if Fayemi truly has any case to answer. After all, the former governor has offered to defend himself when the need arises. Lastly, the governor should show more decorum in view of his alleged uncouth behaviour. Or, how do we explain what played out a few days ago when the governor reportedly wept after prostrating for primary and secondary school teachers for not abandoning him since his impeachment in 2006 and “rolling on the floor�? This is simply unbecoming, Mr. Governor!

Tayo Ogunbiyi In 2008, for instance, the state government budgeted 60.05 percent for capital expenditures and 39.5 percent recurrent expenses while in 2009 capital outlay was 63 percent while recurrent spending was 37 percent. In the 2010 budget, capital and recurrent expenditures stood at a ratio of 59 and 41percents respectively. In terms of commitment to budget performance, the State Government has also recorded high ‹ˆ——^‹‹^‹_~]x~_j^Âż^—~_ÂŽq~_`^‹‹_~]xÂŽ_Ăˆ¢_z^j—^ÂŽ~_xŽŽˆx`_ budget performance.

Similarly, the state is presently implementing six simultaneous transport solutions namely; Mile 12 – Ikorodu, Lekki-Epe, Lagos – Badagry, Lagos Light Rail, Lagos Ferry and Lagos Cable Car. In terms of housing provision, the state now delivers 200 Housing Units on a monthly basis with a 10-year mortgage and a maximum interest payment of 9.5 %.

AFCON qualifiers: Amodu to recall Anichebe, Aiyenugba Ephraim Nwosu

W

est Bromwich Albion striker, Victor Anichebe and Israel-based Nigerian goalkeeper, Dele Aiyenugba have joined the growing list of players to be recalled by interim coach, Amodu Shaibu as he aims to achieve a miracle withNigeria’s two remaining _ ÂźÂˆx`}ÂŞ^j‹_ xÂ?x}Ž‹~_ Congo and South Africa. The duo has been widely linked with a return to the national team ahead of next month’s decisive matches against the Red Devils of Congo and Bafana Bafana of South Africa as Amodu won’t have time to test new players. Anichebe and Aiyenugba were overlooked by former coach, Stephen Keshi. “It will be very risky for Amodu to experiment with new players as there is no time to do so due to the situation we have found ourselves at the moment. “So, Anichebe and Aiyenugba are among the few tested players, who are likely to get another chance under the new coach. They are currently doing well with their clubs in Europe and they deserve to get anq~]^j_—]xŽ—^Š¯_x_~qz_q-—}x`_

So they are no strangers.These are top professionals and I strongly believe that they will ÂŞ~_ }ÂŽ_ |]^ÂŽ_ ~]^“_ ÂŚq}ÂŽ_ ~]^}j_ teammates in camp. “Besides,we want to present a strong squad with a quality bench that will be as good as the starting eleven; unlike what we saw when Keshi was in charge.â€? Anichebe last featured

for Nigeria in September 2011 in an African Cup of x~}qŽ‹_ _ ÂźÂˆx`}ÂŞ^j_ xÂ?x}Ž‹~_ Madagascar, while 30-year old Aiyenugba last played for the Super Eagles in a 2-2 home draw against Guinea in a 2012 African Cup of x~}qŽ‹_ Â? ‘_ ÂźÂˆx`}ÂŞer, which ultimately ended Nigeria’s dream of qualifying for the 2012 African Cup of Nations co-hosted by Equatorial Guinea and Gabon.

No Nigerian player good for Ballon d’Or – Erico Francis Ajuonuma

E

x-international, Joe Erico says he was not surprised that no Nigerian player made the 23-man list shortlisted for the 2014 FIFA Ballon d’Or Award, insisting that they are not good enough for the award. The only African listed is Manchester City and {qj“_ qx‹~_ Â’}ÂŒÂŞ^`ÂŒ^jŠ_ Yaya Toure, while the list was dominated by players from Europe and South America. As expected, Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Arjen Robben, Angel Dim Aria, Gareth Bale, Eden Hazard, Thomas Muller,

Toni Kroos, Sergio Ramos, Zlatan Ibrahimov, Andrea Iniesta and Manuel Neuer dominated the list. According to Erico, the exclusion of Nigerian players from the list

is an indication that the country lack quality players playing at the highest level in Europe and other part of the world. “Honestly, it didn’t surprise me that no Nigerian was included in the

23-man list released by FIFA on Tuesday for the 2014 Ballon d’Or award. “The truth is that our players are not doing well at their clubs. Most of them are average players playing for lesser team; so you don’t expect such z`x“^j‹_~q_x&jx—~_ _x~tention,â€? he said. The Jongo Bonito exponent said that Nigerian players need to work hard to improve on their z^jwqjÂ’xŽ—^_ qÂŽ_ ~]^_ ÂŞ^`ÂŒ_ of play to be considered in future. “Like I’ve said before, the omission of Nigerian players from the list means our players lack quality; so there is the need for them to step up their games at their respective clubs and compete at the highest level,â€? he added.

ur dear President sir, it has become absolutely compelling for me to put together this few lines of appeal to you via this medium. I am aware of “qˆj_~}Â?]~_q-—}x`_‹—]^Œˆ`^‹_~q_ÂŽq~}—^_x_Â’}‹^j`“_z`^x_wjqÂ’_ inconsequential citizen like me. But I am also aware that you love football just as I do and just as several millions of Nigerians equally do. Your magnanimity in rewarding our sports men and women, particularly our footballers, has no comparison. Only few months ago, you authorized several millions of our hard currency to be sprinted to Brazil to pay our players, when they cried out. That alone is a good pointer to the fact that the success of our sports men and women in international competitions excites you too. I am also thrilled to see Nigeria and Nigerians excel in sports meets, particularly football. This is why I have to make this passionate plea that you save this game that we all love so much from the hang-man’s noose. You may have been briefed by your aids on the happenings in Nigerian football since our team’s woeful performance at the last World Cup in Brazil four months ago.

This, to me, means that they have been the one sending the admonitions so that we could avert their hammer. In truth, both FIFA and CAF value Nigeria’s membership of their organisations hence it won’t delight them to slam a ban on Nigerian football. In years past, Nigeria have had to rescue both associations, particularly CAF in hosting their competitions in short notice when the hosting right owners withdrew for reasons beyond their control. Even now, as Morocco ponder withdrawal from hosting the š¢¥³_ wj}—x_ x~}qŽ‹_ ˆzŠ_ }Â?^j}xŠ_z^j]xz‹_|qˆ`ÂŒ_]x{^_ come to CAF’s rescue again,but for the fact that the year coincides with Nigeria’s general elections.

They’ve made it abundantly clear, both in writings and verbally, that once a ban is pronounced, they won’t have any opportunity to revisit it (even if Nigeria later complies to their directives) until May next year. This means, Nigeria won’t defend her Africa Nations Cup in Morocco next year even if we qualify;our local clubs won’t participate in CAF club competitions; our ageÂ?jxÂŒ^_ÂŽx~}qÂŽx`_~^x’‹_Ă‘_~]^_ Â˜ÂĄĂˆÂŠ_ ˜š¢_xÂŽÂŒ_ Â˜ÂšÂŁÂŠ_|qÂŽÂĽ~_ ~x‰^_zxj~_}ÂŽ_~]^}j_j^‹z^—~}{^_ÂźÂˆx`}ÂŞ^j‹Ò_~]^_ ˆz^j_ x`—qŽ‹Š_ who you hosted and eulogized last Wednesday, won’t be in Canada for their World Cup.

the NBA Section on Legal Practice. They are challenging the chairmanship of Mr. Koku, yet the NBA is going ahead to hold the SLP conference in Uyo in a fortnight. What is your comment on this?Would that not be sub judice? Firstly, I would say that as an association of lawyers we must practice what we preach. We preach due process and democracy. We preach obedience and observance of the rule of law. As I said in my inaugural address, SPL had nominations and elections where scheduled to be held at the last annual general conference. But no elections held. Rather than hold elections, some people were allegedly coronated. Under the bye-law, there must be nominations and there must be an election before anyone can become the chairman of a section. But this never happened in SLP. In the NBA-AGC programme of events in Owerri, the election was scheduled to be held on Tuesday. But that election didn’t hold. So, to prevent a lacuna and to prevent an illegality, I took a decision that we must have somebody coordinate the activities of the Section until a proper election is held. _ ^j ~x _ x_ x ^_ |x _ ª`^ _ x~_ ~]^_ Federal High Court in Abuja.

Well, I will tell you for free that the problem in Rivers State is over who is the Chief Judge or not. The NJC has a role to play and it’s doing just that. However, the courts in Rivers State are shut down as at today, not because of the imbroglio over who is CJ or not. It is rather as a result of the strike by the

Expatiating, Oyedokun said: “This is because in Nigeria today we are embarking on a multi-billion dollars project like that without any law or policy in place, governing information

Those individuals and corporate organisations that involve in this project, those international organisations, what are those laws that will govern the way they would use your information and my information?

Groups demand NTC Bill’s conformity with global convention A coalition of civil society groups have urged the Senate to ensure that the National Tobacco Control Bill (NTCB) which will be open for public hearing on Wednesday (October 15, 2014) is in conformity with the provisions of the World Health Organisation Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (WHO-FCTC). }Â?^j}x_ ]x‹_ ‹}Â?ÂŽ^ÂŒ_ xÂŽÂŒ_ jx~}ÂŞ^ÂŒ_ ~]^_ convention.

They insisted that the parliament must plug any loophole that can be exploited by the tobacco industry to undermine the spirit and intention of the bill. ERA/FoEN Director, Corporate Accountability, Akinbode Oluwafemi said: “The public hearing on the National Tobacco Control Bill is a welcome development and presents another opportunity for our lawmakers in the Senate to side with the people by ensuring that the bill is in tandem with the _|]}—]_}‹__~]^_ÂŞj‹~_Â?`qÂ?x`_]^x`~]_~j^x~“¨ ÂŽ ]^_ ^ÂŽx~^_ ’ˆ‹~_ ‹~xÂŽÂŒ_ ÂŞjÂ’_ }ÂŽ_ ~]^_ wx—^_ of growing misinterpretation of the tobacco control bill by agents of the tobacco industry.

Super Friday Onitsha-North community rejoice over local govt’s presence FRIDAY, OCTOBER 31, 2014

OKEY OBIOZO

W

hen Barrister Douglas Nwachukwu Egbuna, the chairman of Onitsha-North Local Government Area in his speech during the last independence celebration on October 1, 2014, said that in a city like Onitsha, the government must perform at the highest UVXVU YZ V0V[\]XV^V__ `^j qxYZV__]Y^`U]_z and stressed that “It’s how we keep faith with the people. It’s how we show them that we mean to honour their trust. And it sounds simple, but I assure you it’s not.� Cynics thought it was one of the much empty political statements politicians are known to make at political gatherings to woo the public and garner more support. But true to the point, the chairman has done a lot in terms of bringing dividends of democracy that has eluded them for so long without making any fuss about it. When he declared that his administration is set to complement the state government’s V0Yx\_ ]^ ~x]^ ]^ \x€V YXVx^`^[V \Y \ V people, he had his means of justifying his claim. “My administration in complementing that of the State Governor has embarked upon many projects, some of which have been completed while others are ongoing.� As a testimonial, his administration from onset decided to deal a heavy blow to the ]^\x`^_] V^\ \x` [ qxY~UVz \ `\  VUj \ V progress of the council at the jugular owing to the town being the commercial nerve of the state. His incisive approach brought succour to the nerve wrecking experience that residents undergo, especially during the peak periods in the mornings and evenings and during the close of the main market, the centre of commerce in the city. ‡7Yj`ˆ ‰V  `XV ` \x` [ V^ZYx[VzV^\ authority duly passed into a by-law, which is V0V[\]XVUˆ [`xxˆ]^ Y€\ ]\_ j€\ˆ , `z \`UŠ]^ YZ \ V 2^]\_ ` 1Yx\ 7x` [ $€\ Yx]\ˆ (ONTA),� he declared. Stating further, “Some of you must have passed through the Ogbe-Oye Market and `z _€xV ˆY€ ‰]UU \V_\]Zˆ \Y \ V ZxVV ‘Y‰ YZ \x` [ ]^ \ `\ `xV` , `__€xV ˆY€ \ `\ Y\ Vx UY[`U z`xŠV\_ ‰]UU \`ŠV _€[ ~V`€\]’[`\]Y^ We are also constructing health centres amongst other things,� he added. Consequent upon his pronouncement, residents have used several media to showcase how in spite of their low expectations from the administration, they are amazed on the chairman’s countless recorded achievements. The secretary to the local government, Achike Anyaegbunam, in a chat with Newswatch Times elucidated that 200 makeshift stalls has been built with long span xYY’^ _ VV\_ `\ 2 ~V 2ˆV 0`xŠV\ _Y `_ \Y z`ŠV \ V z`xŠV\ ~V’\\]^ `^j [Y^j€[]XV ZYx commercial activities to various people who \ xY^ \ V z`xŠV\ ZYx j]0VxV^\ \x`^_`[\]Y^_ The market though small in size, has serviced the needs of the residents of the inland town of Onitsha for many years and due to its strategic location at the centre of the town, many people over the years have developed a sort of attachment to it. Ironically, despite its invaluable support to residents who cut across citizens of the state and their nearby neighbours, coupled

with the fact that those who mostly use the market are indigenes of Onitsha, it was left to _€0Vx ˆV`x_ YZ ^V UV[\ ZxYz _VXVx`U qxVX]Y€_ administrations of the local government till the present administration gave it a face-lift. In response, Emeka Obi, stated that the chairman has really done well to remember the plight of the traders of Ogbe-Oye Market. “It shows that he has the people in mind because nobody has ever remembered to do what he has done and if he continues like this, there is no way the people can desert him,â€? he intoned. $^ˆ`V ~€^`z _\`\Vj Z€x\ Vx \ `\ j]0VxV^\ borehole projects are in progress as Ward 5, Ichida Street; Ward 3, Mba Road; Umuikem, Ward 4 and Ogalonye, Ward 13 -- have been rigged already but added that work in other wards is nearing completion so that the residents will also have clean water. He also threw light on the youth empowerment programme of the chairman which has received further boost by assembling 20 CKD vehicles that will not only support youth recipients but will add value to transportation system within the local government. In health, he enumerated the local YXVx^zV^\›_ V0Yx\ \Y VUVX`\V \ V  V`U\ standard of the residents by constructing  V`U\ [V^\xV_ `\ j]0VxV^\ q`x\_ YZ \ V UY[`U

books’. My Critique The fact that I now hold this book so dear to me makes it hard to critique it. However, I do have some constructive criticisms: 1.Not everyone has the ability to read in Â?^~|^^ÂŽ_~]^_`}ÂŽ^‹_qw_‹~qj}^‹¨_ ~_~x‰^‹_x_j^Âż^—~}{^_ person who is on a mission to learn, to read stories and draw lessons from them.

People do not like to be taught some sensitive things e.g. how to write, how to speak, how eat healthy and so on. In fact the more you want to teach them the more they default. They |xÂŽ~_ ~q_ `^xjÂŽ_ ~]^‹^_ ~]}ÂŽÂ?‹_ xÂŽÂŒ_ ÂŞÂŽÂŒ_ —qÂ’wqj~_ zones by themselves. In this regard, the author did stress the need to know what works for you. Also, this is not the only book that seeks to teach ]q|_~q_j^xŒŠ_}~_Â’x“_ÂŚÂˆÂ‹~_Â?^_z^j—^}{^ÂŒ_x‹_xÂŽq~]^j_ x&^Â’z~_x~_|]x~_]x‹_Â?^^ÂŽ_|j}&^ÂŽ_Â?^wqj^¨_ 3.My criticisms are still building up. Who should read the book

This book should be read by: Children from the ages of eight with guidance, youths, adults and every Nigerian and the world at large should come to know and read this book. Conclusion I want to laud Mr. Martin for writing this book. His passion for reading is enviable and I will endeavour to tow same path (I want to be like him when I grow up). Reading this book makes me feel sane, because I always go on and qÂŽ_xÂ?qˆ~_|]“_Â?qq‰‹Š_|j}~^˜ˆz‹Š_`^&^j‹_xÂŽÂŒ_‹q_ on should be as simple as possible.

The Slave

T

he Slave explores man’s inhumanity acts unleashed to fellow men. It is a movie about slave trade which occurred in some African countries many years ago. The movie opens with a white man arriving through the sea with gifts including mirror, alcohol and hats for a king and his wife, Lolo (Susan Obi).He goes back to his country with slaves in any of his visits. Slaves were given marks with hot irons, tortured, sold and killed on a daily basis, tied with chains even as they cry every day for freedom which was far. A native doctor in that land has two children -male and female, Obinna and Ugo (Omotola Ekehinde) respectively. He tries to teach his children his career saying he does not know who will take his steps after he is gone, not knowing that it will help them while he is still alive. In another scene, Kalu (Segun Arinze) is ÂŞÂ?]~}ÂŽÂ?_ |}~]_ ]}‹_ ‰}Ž‹’^ÂŽ_ ~q_ j^—`x}Â’_ ]}‹_ `x~^_ father’s lands. They trick him and promise to show him his father’s land but capture him in that bush and send him to the barn where slaves were kept. Some of them that were not selected by the Whiteman were returned to the barns and sometimes thrown into the ocean. On daily basis, weeping and gnashing of teeth was the order of the day. Meanwhile, Amadi (Kanayo O. Kanayo) and Idika (Emeka Ossai) are the King’s sons but they hate each other. Amadi does not like the kind of business his father is doing while Idika even molests and rapes some female slaves. But Amadi ensures that no guard, including his brother has carnal knowledge of Ugo (Omotola). When the older ones in that land join their ancestors who will take over? It is on this note that Elders in that land revolt and confront the King who warns that any man who touches a tail of a lion does so at his own risk. His son Idika storms in and sends the elders out. But Amadi hates his father’s way of ruling their land and leaves home to unknown destination. Due to fear of unknown, Lolo asks the king to do something so that Amadi will not return with warriors to destroy them. Ugo’s father vows not to allow his daughter become a slave. A slave called Princess watches helplessly as her maid is killed in that jungle. Her father, a King had two wives. Her stepmother sets her Â’q~]^j_ ˆz¨_ ]^j^_ }‹_ x_ Âżx‹]Â?x—‰_ qw_ |]^j^_ ]^j_ father was scolding her mother and suddenly his father collapsed and died. They accused her mother of killing her father. After consultations, the elders of the land buried her mother and her brother alive with her father while her stepbrother was installed a king. “Her continuous stay in the palace is a threat to my throne,â€? said the new king. So they later sold her as a slave. Ugo, who turned to a fortune-teller tells Amadi that her parents are planning to kill him. Amadi is in love with Princess and decides to escape with her. Being caring, she asked him to help the other slaves. Idika (Ossai) goes home from the barn and set Amadi up by hiring people to lie against Amadi that he hired them to come and wipe his parents and himself out. The King advises his younger son not to kill Amadi but to capture him alive. Strange things do happen! “I told you, I would get you.â€? Idika captures Amadi, chains him and put him in a barn like a slave. Princess informs Ugo that she has all the keys that will unlock all the padlocks, but they are afraid that the warriors and guards will recapture them. Ugo then explains to them that she could send them to sleep with ashes. Few hours for them to be taken to the foreign land, Amadi and Kalu share the agony of being turned to slaves in their own land.

and Idika bribed them to set Amadi up. Out of anger, the king pushes Lolo; she hits her head on a stone and she died. Idika killed Amadi shortly he declared freedom to humanity but Idika is also killed by some slaves. The villagers killed the King and burnt his palace. Ugo is killed as she steps into her father’s house. The Slave is a very emotional movie which reveals how rulers sold their subjects as slaves. One would not stop crying while watching the slaves cry helplessly. There was injustice, cruelty and wickedness as a greedy King deals in slave trade. Though the movie was done in English language, the slave guards were speaking good English Language unlike the pre-colonial Africans who did not understand or speak English Language but communicated with the white men through signs. I became confused after watching how my fellow black men and women were tortured, killed and sold to the Whiteman who deceived their King by giving him ordinary mirror, alcohol and cap. It is time Africans liberate themselves from slavery mentally, physically and emotionally by loving and appreciating one another. Chico Ejiro, the producer and director picked best actors in Nollywood who really depicted the pre-colonial Africans in their roles and costumes. They include Omotola Jalade Ekeinde, Kanayo O. Kanayo, Emeka Ossai, Susan Obi, Rita Edochie, Uche Obi Osotule and others. The Slave is one of the best Nollywood movies I have watched recently. The location, which is a village, bush and a beach, was the best.

Prof. Onwueme, according to him, is one of the most important playwrights that our country Nigeria has produced. “She is, without doubt, the most published and celebrated female playwright to emerge from the continent of Africa.

Among her most memorable works are: the epic dramas ‘Tell It To Women’ and ‘What Mama Said’; ‘Then She Said It’ (a play)

and ‘Riot In Heaven’ (drama for the voices of colour). She has engaged the environment in every sense of the word.

Her commitment to her art has also inspired a new dimension of respect for both artistic and scholarly excellence. “We are blessed that God gave us an artist of the calibre of Prof. Onwueme, and we are proud to share her gifts with the world. “For inviting me to this occasion, marking the donation of the ‘Tess Osonye Onwueme Papers’ to the University of Wisconsin-Eau `x}j^_ qˆŽŒx~}qŽŠ_ _xÂ’_Â’q‹~_Â?jx~^wˆ`¨_ ^j“_ clearly, our beloved playwright’s papers will now become a permanent resource for scholars and students for posterity.

In Germany, for example, it will remain a niche player for the foreseeable future, according to a PricewaterhouseCoopers study published by the Economist. Today in the United States, the e-book industry is worth about $5.7 billion while print is worth approximately $10 billion. By 2018, print and e-books will be worth $7.9 and $8.7 billion respectively, an incredible shift compared to other developed nations like Germany where print is going to remain dominant. The e-book is also set to surpass print in the United Kingdom. In 2018, its e-book industry will be worth $1.5 billion compared to print which is expected to generate sales of $1.4 billion.

For established authors with agents and/or publishers, e-books have changed everything, too. Digital distribution through major retailers such as Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple’s

iBookstore and Kobo has given published authors fresh and exciting ways to reach worldwide readers with their new titles as well as their backlists—which, thanks to e-books, never go out of print.

Americans read an e-book in 2012 (according to the Pew Internet & American Life Project)—a proportion that has surely gone up since. And a recent survey by Digital Book World and PlayCollective revealed that some 54 percent of kids ages 2–13 read e-books, suggesting that as that generation grows up, e-book reading will become even more popular. The trick to building a successful career as an author in the digital arena is understanding the marketplace. Here’s what every writer really needs to know. How E-books Have Changed Distribution Today, anyone with a smartphone, e-reader or tablet computer has the world’s largest bookstore in her pocket. While stats vary between countries, publishers, genres and even titles, it’s thought that Amazon has the largest part of the worldwide e-book sales market share. In the U.S., the company is estimated to account for about 60 percent of all e-book sales, with Nook and Apple each comprising 15–20 percent, and Kobo and other smaller players making up the rest. (In Canada, however, where Kobo is based, it is estimated to have a slight lead over Amazon.) Myriad smaller retailers are also cashing in on digital titles. Smashwords, a company that distributes self-published e-books, reports that it generated $20 million in revenue in 2013 from taking a small cut of sales from titles it’s distributed to e-book retailers outside of Amazon.

ell us about your businesses? To the glory of God, I own two engineering firms that are into the fabrication and building of heavy machinery; we manufacture water tankers, fire engines, garbage/compacting trucks and the likes and they are doing very well. And you should know that it wasn’t easy setting up companies as such abroad. But the determination to succeed against so many odds encouraged me to forge ahead. And if I succeeded out there, I also feel I should also be responsible to my people at home by contributing my quota to the development of my home state and country. That is why I am an advocate of job creation for millions of Nigerians who need a means of survival. We have the manpower, so it’s quite disheartening to realize that we are yet to unleash the potentials of our zealous youthful generation. What do you think needs to be done? Is it for the government to create jobs or what? It is the responsibility of

he tide in the Big Brother Hotshots house seems to be turning, if Monday night’s nominations are anything to go by. With six of the seven housemates evicted so far being women, there’s just one lady in danger this week – Botswana’s Sheillah. The other six nominees are all men: Arthur; Frankie (both Rwanda); Kacey Moore (Ghana); Luis (Namibia); Mr. 265

(Malawi) and Macky2 (Zambia). With the departures of Alusa and Laveda still sinking in, Big Brother started summoning the housemates to the Diary Room immediately after the live eviction show on Sunday, to make their nominations. Sheillah picked up 10 nominations, with her housemates citing both her x&}~ ^_ x _ ]^j_ x }z `xtive nature as reasons. Macky2 was next with 9 nominations,

followed by Mr. 265 and Luis with 5 and 4 respectively, Kacey Moore and Arthur with 3 each, 2 for Permithias and 1 for Nhlanhla & Samantha. Monday’s Head of House task was as keenly-contested as ever. First up, the housemates ]x _ ~q_ ª _ j^ _ x`` _ ]} ^ _ in the garden, with the semiª x`} ~ _ q} _ q _ ~q_ jx ^_ ^x ]_ other on cooler racing cars on the grass for the coveted title. JJ, Samantha and Sipe came up trumps in the ball search, before JJ prevailed on the ‘track’ to clain bragging rights this week. After Big Brother revealed the nomination results to the housemates on Monday evening, JJ was immediately summoned to the Diary Room to give his ‘add’ decision. He seemed to have made his mind up before his session, and named Frankie without hesitation. Voting opened immediately after that decision, and runs until next Sunday morning.

ment can assist via provision of start-up capital even if it is on a small scale. Also, the organization of workshops, vocational trainings, among others would fast track development in every sector of the economy. Nigerians have learnt to become independent and provide for most of their basic needs themselves. Those who have succeeded in business need to look back and help others grow. So, you are saying our government has failed? Well, yes and the people are frustrated. This hampers economic growth. Take

education for instance, why should people pay so much? Why would a government reduce school fees and increase salaries when it is election time? Why can’t basic healthcare be free? Why are our power sector killing businesses as most depend on alternative sources of power? Our politicians and the rich can travel abroad at anytime with their families to get good healthcare and that is why they can neglect the millions who can’t. Our people must begin to demand for their rights from the political office holders. For instance, if our political office holders have children in Nigerian universities, there wouldn’t be so many strikes or if they were stuck in traffic in an ambulance on their way to the hospital, they would know what to do. When people pay through their nose for something that should be ordinarily subsidized by their government, forging successful entrepreneurs would become more tasking. So, the solutions are not so vague if our people would choose to do the right thing. More businesses will thrive under right conditions and more people will contribute economically to the GDP. We have the people, we have the resources. We only require the right mindset. How do you intend to make a change? I will simply challenge the Nigerian youths to stand for what is right and position themselves for emancipation from oppression and selfish leaders. Entreprenuership is the future of Nigeria and our youths should drive this change. I stand for change and I will champion this cause with every opportunity I get.

t was indeed a night of pleasant surprises recently at the King-size Place, a popular bar in Lagos, as two music stars, Azadus and Mr. Raw, thrilled revelers as part of the ongoing Legend Taste &Tell in-bar activation. The duo practically brought the roof down with medley of some of their popular tracks to the delight of the audience. While Azadus rendered some hit tracks including You Is the One, See Trouble, Madam, Dem Say You Say, Mr. Raw belted songs like Obodo, Ofediokwu, among others. However, the pair was not the only star of the night. The band, Platinum Blazzers, also gave a good account of themselves as they took the audience through a medley of old school and more contemporary music. It wasn’t only a night of music and dance as a number of consumers of the Legend Extra Stout drink walked away with prizes including refrigerators, T-shirts, free bottles of Legend Extra Stout, Face caps and other exciting instant prizes

courtesy of the stout drink. The Legend Extra Stout Taste & Tell in-bar activation, which kicked off on October 3, 2014, is a unique form of activation where participants are engaged in a blind taste exercise. They taste several unidentified drinks and are asked to identify the Legend brand. Participants who correctly identify Legend Extra Stout are rewarded with fantastic prizes weekly across Lagos. The campaign, which is a follow-up to the relaunch of Legend Extra Stout earlier in March this year, is aimed at reinforcing in the consumers the unique great Legend taste, as well as to ^Œˆ—x~^_~]^’_qŽ_~]^_‰^“_x&j}�ˆ~^‹_qw_ ^�^ŽŒ_ Extra Stout in an atmosphere of fun. Speaking on the activation, Funso Ayeni, Senior Brand Manager, Legend Extra Stout and Life Lager Beer, Nigerian Breweries PLC., stated that the activation was one of the ways the brand was connecting with its teeming consumers. He stated that the activation was designed to reward and excite consumers of the brand.

It was a memorable night of excellent entertainment and colorful marriage of drama, comedy and palatable musical performances from top emerging gospel acts. The guest artistes drawn from the major geographical locations of Nigeria unleashed five-star performances to the delight of the audience who were asking for more. The thrilling performances no doubt made the event grand.

JMF urges LASG to ignore court ruling on Hijab TAYO SALAMI

A

n appeal has gone to the Lagos State government to ignore the court judgment on hijab and issue a directive to school principals to allow female Muslim students to use it in school. This call was made last week at the press conference organized by the Joint Muslim Forum, (JMF), held at Rahmat Islamiyyah Hall, Ikeja, Lagos. While addressing journalists, JMF noted that if the judgment is implemented, it is capable of creating avoidable tension and crises, thereby destroying the peaceful co-existence and religious tolerance Lagos State currently enjoys. However, JMF warned that if Lagos State government do not take necessary steps concerning the issue, it would resolve to ‘no

hijab, no vote’ during the upcoming elections in February 2015. Adding that, “We have decided to vote for any candidate from any political party willing to grant us religious freedom. We would vote for those who will approve the use of hijab in schools irrespective of political ` U]`\]Y^ ¢ To this end, JMF urged Gov. Babatunde Raji Fashola to promote religious harmony and reverse discriminatory policies against Muslims who have supported and demonstrated goodwill for peaceful coexistence even in the face of blatant provocations. In another development, JMF has reiterated its total rejection of the campaign for a Christian governor in Lagos in 2015 and pleaded with Lagosians to reject any candidate that emerged on account of unfathomable or disguised religious sponsorship.

Stressing further, the group stated, “We remain committed to democratic norms and principles in the election of governor for Lagos State. Merit and demonstrated capacity to govern must be the criteria to determine the next governor of the state. We are for the steady development, security, peace and welfare of Lagosians -]xxV_qV[\]XV YZ xVU] ]Y€_ ` U]`\]Y^ of governorship election candidates.

aitoon also known as olive oil is described as a sign of peace and friendship in this world. It was noted that the roots of the olive tree are so extensive and strong to the extent that in times of drought, when other trees die, the olive tree is still standing. It draws from deep within the earth when the heavens withhold their life-giving water. Qur’an chapter 23 verse 20 states that: “And We created the tree which grows on Mount Sinai -- it gives oil and is used as food also by those who like to eat it‌â€? Also Qur’an chapter 24 verse 35 says, “Allah is the Light of the heavens and the earth. The example of His light is like a niche within which is a lamp, the lamp is within glass, the glass as if it were a pearly [white] star lit from [the oil of] a blessed olive tree, neither of the east nor of the west, whose oil would almost Â?`q|_^{^ÂŽ_}w_ˆŽ~qˆ—]^ÂŒ_Â?“_ÂŞj^¨_ }Â?]~_ˆzqÂŽ_ light. Allah guides to His light whom He wills. And Allah presents examples for the people, and Allah is Knowing of all things.â€? To this end, the human body easily absorbs olives. This aids digestion so that the body can handle food with ease. Imam Jalaaluddin as-Suyuti, in his book, “Medicine of the Prophetâ€? suggests that drinking olive oil keeps the bowels moving, soothes pains and combats constipation.

God Accepts Repentance One is advised to start the New Year with repentance and start a new leaf with God and people. Repentance, with its basic conditions and requirements, is highly recommended. The Prophet

(peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Oh people, repent to Allah, for indeed, I repent to Allah 100 times every day.â€? (Muslim). qÂŒ_ x——^z~‹_ z^qz`^¼‹_ j^z^ÂŽ~xŽ—^_ whatever their sins are.

Despair not of the Mercy of Allah: for Allah forgives all sins: for He is OftForgiving, Most Merciful. (Az-Zumar 39:35). So, the New Year is a golden opportunity for Muslims to renew and maintain sincere repentance. Therefore, repentance, cannot be considered as valid unless one takes the following steps: One must feel deep remorse for ~]^_ ‹}Ž‹_ qÂŽ^_ ]x‹_ —qÂ’Â’}&^ÂŒ¨_ ÂŽ^_ must refrain from it totally while also abstaining from all those leads or

Why pipeline vandalism persists - IPMAN chairman BISI ADEDAYO, Ilorin

T

He further lamented that it was worrisome that nothing was being done to collaborate with the association’s private security guards recruited to mount surveillance on oil installations despite overtures made to the security agencies. According to Olopade, if there is synergy between security agencies and IPMAN as required by the association, the menace

would have been tackled head long. He, however, urged security agencies to change their approach to the issue of pipeline vandalism, “which has caught global

Wada opined that government will soon commence comprehensive re-organisation and re-structuring of basic education in the state, to overcome challenges that had slowed down progress of the sector. He commended the committee members for a job well-done and assured that some of them would be retained as

Right now, vandalism has been reduced drastically and once that is achieved, loading would continue unabated in Ilorin depot. “If there is any problem we are facing on the line now, it is the problem of government agencies (security). Even the vandals are not our problem. The government agencies are not co-operating with the guards we put on the lines. If we have that cooperation, vandalism would have reached zero level.

Kano Justice Ministry, represented by Senior state counsel, Barrister Lamido Soron Dinki sought the relief of the court to substitute the initial charge sheet with a new one, pointing out that the accused person was before the court on a one count charge of culpable homicide, explaining that those allegedly murdered were four persons and therefore stressed the need for the accuses to be slammed with a four-count charge, bordering on culpable homicide, just as he also prayed the court to admit the accused person to be arraigned on the fresh allegations. In his submission, Lamido argued that the application for the substitution of the charge sheet is pursuant to section 185(b) of the criminal procedure code.

Canonising docility as Nigeria’s foreign policy

T

oo soon, the recent events all around us – in Chad, Gabon, South Africa, and Egypt have forced upon me yet another interrogation of Nigeria’s dysfunctional relationship with the world under President Goodluck Jonathan. Was it not only a few weeks ago that I was compelled to ask what President Jonathan was doing in Washington? _]xÂŒ_ÂźÂˆ^j}^ŒŠ_~]^ŽŠ_~]^_‹^Ž‹^_}ÂŽ_ÂŞw~“_ wj}—xÂŽ_ Elders journeying, like beggars, to meet a lame-duck Chief Obama in his own courtyard. Seeing that the man had this rush to renew marital vows with an estranged Africa }ÂŽ_ ~]^_ |^^_ ]qˆj‹_ qw_ ]}‹_ ÂŞÂŽx`_ ~^jÂ’_ }ÂŽ_ q-—^Š_ did he then have to summon elders from the wife’s village for lunch, to make that point to the world? The symbolism of that trip to Washington }‹_ ÂŽq~_ `q‹~_ qÂŽ_ ~]^_ ÂŒ}‹—^jÂŽ}ÂŽÂ?¨_ ~_ —qÂŽÂŞjÂ’^ÂŒ_ the status of Nigeria as a journey-man in international relations. We have elevated naivety to the point where we roll in the mud, heap sand on our own head, while the world is busy throwing dirty water at us, yet expecting things to end well. With each day, it becomes more apparent that Nigeria’s engagement with the world, under President Jonathan, is not founded on any guiding philosophy. With the yawning absence of a compass, we grope in the dark, our diary one of serial misadventure on the global arena. We are simply all over the place. It is impossible to tell what President Jonathan’s {}‹}qÂŽ_ }‹Š_ xÂŽÂŒ_ ÂŒ}-—ˆ`~_ ~q_ }ÂŒ^ÂŽ~}w“_ ~]^_ underpinning philosophy that governs his foreign policy. He is not helped by the people xjqˆŽŒ_ ]}Â’¨_ _ qˆ~}ÂŽ^_ Â’x&^j‹_ qw_ zjq~q—q`_ have suddenly taken on a shoddy life of their own, in the hands of incompetent aides. Again and again, we end up with eggs on our faces - lost in the crowd in the gathering of world leaders, snubbed at the Mandela funeral service, relegated to the back row at the US-African Leaders Summit. How did it get this bad? ^_ÂżqˆŽŒ^j_x~_`}&`^_~]}ÂŽÂ?‹_q~]^j‹_~x‰^_wqj_ granted. How do you even explain the fact that our President ended up in a meeting with Chadian President Idriss Deby in ~]^_ —qÂ’zxŽ“_ qw_ ~]^_ ]^j}J_ qw_ qjÂŽqŠ_ |}~]_ photographs as exhibit?

We have lost our voice. We have become an object of scorn and ridicule, in our supposed backyard. Respect for the giant of Africa has been eroded, the sub-region is yearns for leadership from Nigeria. How much of a rallying point on the Ebola crisis were we for West Africa,

QUOTABLE QUOTE

“If someone puts their hands on you make sure they never put their hands on anybody else again.â€? – Malcolm X excuse to keep us away from engagement with the rest of civilisation. Where do we start? Is it with the treatment meted out to young Nigerian Athletes in China, leading to a decision to withdraw them from the Youth Olympics?

You often wonder if some of these openhouse visa interviews were designed to humiliate and dehumanise Nigerians.
