Empathizing with Down’s syndrome victims By Bilkis Bakare

I

t is an unimaginable thing if a child’s right to life is decided before his arrival on planet earth. And incidentally, the events leading to the choice of this decision is no fault of the child. Available statistics show that ninety percent of people diagnosed with Down syndrome are never allowed to be born due to prenatal testing and subsequently recommendations from uninformed doctors to get rid of the unborn child. Therefore, a person with the condition will be fortunate to be born at all. This is in deviance of the injunctions as contained in the Holy books of the Christians and Muslims which forbid abortion. The origin of Down syndrome can be traced to John Langdon Down, an € the external appearance of the genetic condition in 1866, that was later to bear his name, “Down�. Prior to the reported study on the incidence of Down syndrome by Adeyokunnu of the University of Ibadan, Ibadan, in South West, Nigeria, who reported an incidence of 1 in 865 live births, it was believed that Down syndrome is rare or non - existent among Africans. This is collaborated by the reports of other clinicians that found no case of Down syndrome in their clinical studies. It was discovered that the main factor that would explain the prevalence of this condition in Nigeria is the increasing maternal age at which more women in Nigeria now conceive. This follows the increasing strong desire to complete formal education before conception, and the rising incidence of infertility. In every cell in the human body, there is a nucleus, where genetic material is stored in genes. Genes carry the codes responsible for all our inherited traits, and are grouped along rod-like structures called chromosomes. Typically, the nucleus of each cell contains 23 pairs of chromosomes, half of which are inherited from each parent. Down syndrome occurs when an individual has a full or partial extra copy of chromosome 21. Therefore, individuals with Down syndrome have 47 chromosomes instead of the usual 46. This additional genetic material alters the course of development, and causes the characteristics associated with the disorder. Usually, it is always 6 5 Down syndrome if a large number of

them converge in the same venue due to the physical characteristics they share. Down syndrome is a chromosomal disorder that occurs in one of every 691 live births, and it is not linked to race, nationality, religion and social or economic status. In addition to other traits unique to individuals with this disorder, a few of the common traits are low muscle tone, small stature, an upward slant to the eyes, and a single deep crease across the centre of the palm. In essence, it causes delays in physical and intellectual development. It is important to note that people with Down syndrome may possess these 5 This condition is usually caused by an error in cell division called non disjunction. It is not known why this occurs. However, it is known that the error occurs at conception, and is not related to anything the mother did during pregnancy. Although for some time now its prevalence has been linked with advancing maternal age, but it has been recently observed that 80% of children with Down syndrome are born to mothers under the age of 35. During the pre-natal period, two types of procedures are available to pregnant women: screening tests and diagnostic tests. The screening tests estimate the risk of the baby having Down syndrome while the Diagnostic tests tell whether or not the baby actually has Down syndrome. The most commonly used screening test is

“The Triple Screen,� a combination of three tests that measure quantities of various substances in the blood. These tests are carried out between 15 and 20 weeks of gestation. In conjunction with other screenings, sonogram, a form of ultrasound is performed to show some physical traits that are helpful in calculating the risk of Down syndrome. Three diagnostic tests are currently available in the detection of this condition during the pre-natal period; the period before the birth of a baby. These are: Amniocentesis, performed between 12 and 20 weeks gestation; Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS), conducted between 8 and 12 weeks and Percutaneous Umbilic. = at birth or shortly thereafter by conducting a Karyotype test, a chromosome study which provides a visual display of the chromosomes grouped by their size, number and shape is used to determine if a child has the disorder or otherwise. This is carried out through the examination of blood or tissue cells. The aforementioned physical characteristics commonly seen in babies with this disorder are also used in the diagnosis after the birth of the baby. Aside children and adults with Down syndrome experiencing developmental delays and mild to moderate impairments, many children with Down syndrome have health complications beyond the usual

childhood illnesses. Approximately 40% of the children have congenital heart defects. Therefore, it is very important that an echocardiogram be performed on all newborns with Down syndrome in order to identify any serious cardiac problems that might be present. While some of the heart conditions require surgery, others only require careful monitoring. Children with Down syndrome have a higher incidence of infection, respiratory, vision and hearing problems as well as thyroid and other medical conditions. Caring for people with Down syndrome can be frustrating and fraught with challenges, as expressed recently by an American mother of a 40 year-old son with Down syndrome. | " child because he practically depends on her for everything. But it should be noted that they also have many talents and gifts, and should be given the opportunity and encouragement to develop them. To achieve the aforementioned, early intervention services should be provided shortly after birth. These services should include physical, speech and developmental ! " neighbourhood schools, some in regular classes and others in special education classes. Some children have $ more specialised programme. Some high school graduates with Down syndrome participate in postsecondary education. Many adults with Down syndrome are capable of working in the community, but some require a more structured environment. To overcome the health challenges being faced by these special people, appropriate medical care should be given, so that they can lead healthy lives. If given adequate care, the average life expectancy of individuals with Down syndrome is 55 years, with many living into their sixties and seventies. In conclusion, all tiers of government, individuals and non- governmental organisations should rally support for parents and people with this disorder. And with the passage of the child right law, their rights should equally be respected and protected like those of normal children. ‚ ' Ministry of Information & Strategy, Alausa, Ikeja.

President Goodluck Jonathan

Non-oil revenue and survival of 2015 budget As a result of the dwindling revenue from crude oil sales and free fall of Naira against the dollar, the federal government has seen the need to diversify the economy from monolithic oil revenue to other sectors. Consequently, it has based its 2015 budget on non oil revenue target, giving economic watchers and analysts room to query the rationale behind non-oil revenue propelling the 2015 budget. ABIODUN AWOGBEMI reports.

T

he President, through the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, last week presented the 2015 budget of N4.4 trillion to the National Assembly, purportedly to be driven by revenue derived from non-oil sectors of the economy. The budget showes that based on the extreme global economic volatility, the 2015 average budget price is pegged at $65 per barrel against $77.50 per barrel in 2014; oil production for 2015 was pegged at 2.278 million barrel per day against 2.388 barrel per day in 2014; while the exchange rate was pegged at N165 to a dollar, against N160 to a dollar in 2014. Breakdown of the expenditure showes that N50.96 billion is for transfer to NDDC; N73 billion is for National Judicial Council (NJC); N72.18 billion for the Universal Basic Education (UBE); N62 billion for Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC); N150 billion

for National Assembly; N2.50 billion for Public Complaint Commission while N1.50 billion is for Human Rights Commission. Out of N943 billion proposed for debt servicing, N894.61 billion is set aside for domestic debt while N48.39 billion is for foreign debt. For the recurrent expenditure (non-debt), Federal Government proposes N1.801 trillion for personnel costs; N216.56 billion for overheads; N228.81 billion for CRF pensions while N376.05 billion is for other service wide votes. /

Also, a visit to the secretariat of Manufacturers Association of Nigeria by Newswatch Times showed that the manufacturers are yet to make a joint comment on the development, but individual members are reacting to the 5 While some are supporting the budget, others are of the view that last year’s budget spending was not accounted for just as the life of the present administration will soon end. A member of the Association, Mr. Jude Akonle, said Nigerian needs to know how last year’s budget which was passed almost at the last quarter was spent before talking about where and what to spend next year.

Non-oil revenue and survival of 2015 budget Continued from Page 11

While commenting on the economic development in the country, he said with the devaluation of the Naira due to its continued free fall, it would lead to made-in-Nigeria goods losing competitive value with imported ones as production cost would increase, and “soon all # down and resort to buying and selling imported goods, and the country will be the worst for it in terms of the increase in unemployment and crime rate.� He said industry and manufacturers as well 7/| ' 5 which might result in production cuts and price * 5 # ' The Organised Private Sector (OPS) haswarned severally on the dangers of relying solely on oil to run the economy. It has often warned that it is dangerous for Nigeria to stick to the monolithic economy of oil for over 85 per cent of its federal collectable revenue. It was generally agreed that there is every need for the government to move the revenue base of the economy away from oil as the ! # " # time the necessity to refocus the economy from opening it up to other sectors. But analysts disagree on the nature of driving the budget by further subjecting the citizens % 5 the manufacturing business, leading to closure of factories, and those still in operation are producing at very low capacity with high overhead of maintenance and self producing infrastructure such as roads, electricity, water among others. It was agreed that the system and nature of the Federal Government employment is faulty 5 it is anti-private sector driven as most of their activities are to further compound the problems of the private sectors. While speaking with Newswatch Times, Mr. Akin Shotunde, another member of the Association, said the budget proposal appear laudable, but “the assumptions upon which the document is premised are unrealistic.� He said it is unrealistic to assume that much revenue will be realised from taxes, stressing that if it was that easy for government to raise taxes, they would have been doing that over the years, wondering if it is the already killed businesses or the workers whose take-home-pay is not really taking them home or the politicians who % 6 % " the tax? He was of the opinion that if an audit is carried out from the presidency, ministers through to National Assembly and civil service

6 # # taxes is coming from these groups. So it is the already pauperised public that will bear the brunt, using their meager life sustaining fund? The question agitating the minds of many is, supposing government do not realise enough money from the supposed luxury items, where will it look up to?. A council member of Chartered Institute of Taxation of Nigeria (CITN), Chukwuemeka Ezeh, said the government’s step is only a partial solution to the problem. He explained that the action would lead to slight increase in the revenue, but would not be enough to sustain an economy which currency has recently been devalued; an economy with high interest rate, high recurrent expenditure, and high corruption index. Taxation, he said, no doubt, is an instrument of economic sustainability, but Nigeria lacks the requisite tax culture that can raise the revenue which can easily complement our mono-product source of foreign exchange. “My advice is that there is the need to take serious the taxation of high net-worth individuals, and politically exposed persons. For instance, politicians spend billions of naira and dollars without commensurate impact on their tax worth. Some of these politicians pay income tax as low as N100, 000 per annum.

Cement price inches up 30% all time high Abiodun Awogbemi

T

he price of cement has hit N1900 all high aiming at N2000 per bag, few days to the end of the year. According to Newswatch Times investigation, the price is not unconnected with the free fall of naira and the recent devaluation of the currency, coupled with the introduction of austerity measures by the Federal Government. According to a distributor, Alhaja Kehinde Alapo, in an interview with Newswatch Times, the rise in price is not new but a yearly action. “At the end of the year such as this, there is always an increase in the price of cement due to several factors among which are that many builders and house owners defer their building and construction works till this time of the year, away from the rains which always disturb the construction. Also, this is the period when those in the Diaspora return home to continue their building construction, and market forces determine the supply and demand; there is high demand for the products at this time of the year.� While commenting on the reason why the market price has not reverted to the widely publicise N1000 per bag, Alhaja Alapo said this is not new as it is political gimmick which

is employed when new election is to take place. She is pessimistic that cement can be sold at N1000, arguing that it is below the factory price. “How can cement be sold at a retail price of N1, 000 per bag when as a distributor, we have just place an order which price per bag is higher than N1,000, and there is variation in the price according to geographical zones and none is N1,000 per bag or lesser. For instance, the 42.5 Grade R is sold for N1,208 if you are to provide your own means of transportation and delivery to any part of south west, south-south and south-east, otherwise it costs N1,308, while supply of same products to Kwara, Nassarawa, Benue, Niger, Abuja, cost N1358 and distribution to North-West, NorthEast, North-Central cost N1, 408. However, the 32.5N is cheaper at N1,050 ex factory self delivery while the factory delivers at N1,150 to South-West, South-South, and South-East, and N1, 200 to Kwara, Nassarawa, Benue, Niger, Abuja, while distribution to NorthWest, North-East, North-Central cost N1,250. How can a distributor sell to wholesaler and retailer below the factory price? Also, you cannot buy less than 600 bags from the factory,� she said. Another distributor, Alhaji Kasim Solebo, said they were expecting the price

to go higher due to the economic crisis, especially the devaluation of the naira and $ ' 5 importation because 60 percent of the materials used for cement production are imported. He said the announced price reduction is a ploy and gimmicks by the manufacturer to outdo its perceived competitors. “We knew all along that even if the price is brought down to N1,000, it cannot be sustained as consumers will pay almost double after about three months with complaints from the company about the high cost of importing and sourcing for gypsum and limestone, but be rest assured that after $ # % after the election, the price is expected to drop, but not to the expected N1,000, but hovering between N1, 500 and N1, 650 per bag,� he said. Succour may not easily come for the sector due to the free fall of the naira and the dwindling oil revenue which will ultimately cause a cash crunch in the economy. Also, the forthcoming general election will play a major role as politicians are threatening the continued existence of the country with the ruling party and the opposition hell bent in controlling power.

There is no rivalry of any sort although there is competition which is healthy, and NIPOST is leading while others trail behind due to its spread, facilities and scope. The banks and all other organisations need NIPOST just as NIPOST needs them. Many banks are partnering with us in many areas, especially service delivery in the rural areas. Now we are discussing with the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) about rural banking which only NIPOST can undertake due to our geographical spread to all villages, and some banks also want to be part of the arrangement.

Politics Real reason I defected to Labour Party – Akala Former governor of Oyo State, Otunba Christopher Adebayo Alao-Akala sure has some weaknesses as a human being. What one may not easily take away from him is his human relations and accessibility that extend to the downtrodden. A grassroots politician with foot soldiers who ceaselessly mill around him, Alao-Akala few days ago dumped his Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to pick the 2015 gubernatorial ticket of the Labour Party (LP). During the week, he interacted with some journalists in Ibadan. OLAIDE OYELUDE Has there been any reaction from the presidency concerning the development? I am not in the presidency. I don’t know their minds. But my friends in the presidency have called me to wish me good luck.

Akala

H

ow has it been since your defection to the Labour Party (LP) and what really informed that decision bearing in mind that you are one of the PDP leaders in the country? I have gone to a less stressful party. Man propose, God disposes. At times, you say this is your way and God will say, this is the way you must thread. That is how it goes. I left the PDP when it became impossible for the party to conduct

Folarin

a free and fair governorship primary. Does that mean your friends like the move? My friends across the country have been calling me. They have been following the development. They are among the people who say eh; “get out of this party� when they saw the way I was being treated.

But some people may see your defection as a reaction from a bad loser? Some of us are not bad losers. What we are saying is that you should provide a level playing ground. But, I could see a conspiracy somewhere, hence my decision to leave. What they did was far from the normal way to pick a popular candidate for an election. Despite our complaints, they turned deaf ears; so I had to leave. The way they nominated candidates in the PDP is not according to the rules of the game. It is simple injustice. Of course, if the primary had been conducted according to laid down rules and I lost, I would have been the winner. Those who are close to me know that I would have demonstrated the spirit of a good sportsman. But they were changing the rules in the middle of the game. Why can’t they make use of an ad " ‹ ~ * It is not only in Oyo State. In Ebonyi State, a whole party structure, including the state governor moved to the LP. You know some of us know our onions.

And Abuja sees some of us who are grassroots politicians as having local ideas. But all that is history now as I am now in a less stressful party, a family party that will always do the wishes of the people. Don’t forget also that I am a leader. I have to listen to my followers. When you are leading and you are not listening to your

followers and you are just going, you won’t get anywhere. So, I have listened to my followers and I have done their bidding. We also learnt that there were

That has become history. We thought then that we could move the party forward. Why does it appear that the PDP crisis is intractable, at least in the state? The whole thing is not from the presidency. It is from a cabal who changed the goal posts in the middle of the game. That is why the party " + PDP is alive or not in the state after my exit, time will tell. What I know is that my current party, the LP, will win this governorship election. The All Progressives Congress (APC) chairman in the state, Chief Akin Oke, said you would regret your decision in defecting to LP‌ (Cuts in) ...What concerns him ‹ ~ interfere in their business. Why should he interfere in my business if my movement to LP has not pained him or his party. You see, in politics, you don’t have permanent enemies. Neither do you have permanent friends. What you have is permanent interest. A politician who knows his onions is always prepared like the boys scout. He does not need to be told to leave before he leaves and that is what we have done with the advice of our followers and supporters. If we get you right, you said politics is all about permanent interest. Does that mean that probably after the election you would return to the PDP? When we get to the river, we shall cross it. The LP does not have a presidential candidate. Does that mean your party will support the incumbent, President Goodluck Jonathan? I am a party man. I will abide by my party’s decision. How would you rate your chances and that of your party in the governorship election? I don’t know the extent of preparations in other parties. All I know is that my party, the LP will win.

Events that shaped the season T

he2013/14 Glo Premier League season has come and gone, but there were some events that made it unique, as compared to previous ones. After a series of postponements, the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL), ' ' 5 on February 23. Several reasons were adduced for the delay, which include 6 ' ' ' 5 the African Nations Championship (CHAN) in South Africa, among other challenges. + ' ' 5 unanimously chosen by the League Management Company (LMC), and Club Owners in a meeting held in Abuja, and interestingly, when the league started, it was trailed with another controversy as two clubs, Nembe City and Giwa FC) were prevented from starting the league due to their alleged inability to meet requirements agreed by the LMC and Club Owners. These included a deposit of N100 million with the league body, and payment of the new minimum salary of N150, 000 to local league players. One of the reasons LMC # % salary for NPFL players’ monthly minimum salary was due to the abolishment of sign-on fees for players by clubs. This problem lingered as the two clubs were not allowed to start the league with others until well meaning individuals and stakeholders intervened before they were allowed to participate in the league.

Other events that shaped the season

Wonder Goal The passing season will go down in history as one that witnessed several innovations, such as when the LMC introduced the Wonder Goal Award. According to the LMC, introducing

the Wonder Goal is “one of the ways we seek to enhance club-community engagement and bring our star players closer to the people. The Wonder Goal Award also projects quality marksmanship that abounds in the Glo Premier League, and recognizes the collective 5 possible.� Winner of the Wonder Goal Award is the player whose goal gets the highest number of votes among the goals selected. The pair of Osaguona Ighodaro and Emeka Eze, both from Rangers International FC, players to win the Wonder Goal Awards, while Bayelsa United’s Oghogho Oduokpe and Rasheed Olabiyi of Enyimba were the other winners, thanks to votes from passionate Glo Premier League fans across the country. The sum of N100,000 is " Goal Award, of which 50 per cent is channelled to a Charity of the player’s choice.

NFF leadership crisis

The leadership crisis which rocked the Nigeria Football Federation immediately after the World Cup in Brazil, took its toll on the league as the LMC in the heat of the crisis had to stop the league following the withdrawal of service by the Nigeria Referees Association (NRA) pending when the crisis was resolved.

Abandoned games

In course of the league, there were cases of abandoned mathes involving some clubs particularly Nembe FC and Giwa Football Clubs which 5 of 2013/14 league season % to accommodate those games. This particular problem ensured that the league did not end when it suppose to end as the LMC had to ensure that all the abandoned matches were

replayed. The league saw several coaches losing their jobs and some leaving on their own to preferred clubs. Some of the coaches that switched clubs include former Bayelsa United coach, Ladan Bosso, who moved to Abia Warriors after few games, thereby throwing former Super Eagles defence ace, Emeka Ezeugo to the labour market as he was at the helm of at the Umuahia based side. The decision to get rid of Ezeugo seemed to have 5 @ turned out to be the revelation of the surprised package of 2013/14 league. It is recalled that Abia Warriors placed 7th on the log after the end of the season even as it happened to be the best team among the club that gained promotion to elite cadre last season. Of the four clubs that were promoted at the end of 2012/13 Nigerian National League season they happened to have the best record having placed 7th on the table. Gombe United also sacked Maurice Cooreman, and replaced him with former national team captain and coach, Austin Equavoen, but that did not save them from being relegated. Enyimba equally sacked their former coach, Salisu Yusuf after some poor run of form by the two time African champions and replaced him with their former coach, Kadiri Ikhana.

Players’ movement

Last season also saw some players ditching their former clubs for new clubs some of them did it with heavy personal 1 ' is Ikechukwu Ibenegbu of Heartland Football Club

M

ore facts have emerged on why exinternational, Friday Ekpo, was recently relieved of his duties as Manager of Onikan Stadium, in Lagos Island. A top source at the Newswatch Times sports, alleged that it got to a point when Ekpo became a lord unto himself, doing his own thing and disobeying his superiors’ instructions to carry out assignments. The source further revealed that the former started well, and was loved by everyone in terms of his conduct and relationship with fellow workers, but " ' changed, and he allegedly heard and listened only to himself, which led to his sudden fall. “We can tell you authoritatively that the

Ekpo

man was an architect of the fate that befell him. He disregarded everyone, and even when he was advised against employing " primary users of the stadium, it fell on deaf ears. “It reached a head when his action started to embarrass the state government, and the 6 no alternative than to wash 5 ƒ source. The last straw that broke the camel’s back, according to the source, was the day Ekpo locked out the Lagos State National Sports Festival team, and prevented them from using the facility for training, + 6 were said to have pleaded with Ekpo to come from wherever he was and open the gate, but he refused to show up, and this compelled

6 # # entry into the arena. According to other sources at the Stadium, “It must be noted that nobody begrudged his foresight to always lock the place, but

the problem was the kind of " he was contacted to come and ' # members to make use of. “It will further interest the public to know that anytime he locks up the facility, he walks away from the vicinity, thereby making it impossible for users to gain entry. There were several pleas for him to always be within reach to open the gates when the need arises, but no deal,� they alleged.

" ‹ Oh, yes, I know, the president is going to overturn that decision again. “So, now that they are aware of what they face, why can’t they just agree collectively and give the guy a new deal as the president so wishes, why ƒ Temile questioned. During the week, there was a dispute amongst

6 # 0 regarding whether Keshi deserves a new contract, with a majority still seriously opposed to it. It was also reported that a section of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) leadership want Keshi to be given a new contract despite failing to qualify Nigeria to the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations so as to, at least, keep their plum jobs. A top source informed that the group that favours a new contract for the failed coach believes Keshi’s “very powerful friends� will # they give him a new deal. However, this group is opposed by a majority on the NFF executive

" ' to the “unanimous decision� in October to sack Keshi. It will be recalled that 0 only to later be forced to rescind this decision on the orders of President Goodluck Jonathan. There is certainly no love lost between Keshi and his employers even before this sensational U-turn and the frosty

relationship has been worsened by the Sports Minister’s decision to directly pay the coach 14 million Naira as salaries for his work in October and November. Most recently, several top coaches including Shaibu Amodu, Christian Chukwu, and Adegboye Onigbinde have asked Keshi to walk away from the job because he has failed.

Respect for her wish; going at her pace Men, especially need to know that in the process of lovemaking, any act done in a hurry will take away charm of lovemaking. If, for any reason whatsoever, your wife is not ready for sex, respect that. You can lie down together and discuss some subject of common interest or do some other things together. The chances are that during the course of interaction, she may get ready and herself invite you for sex act. But never force your way with her. If you do, you will send the signal that it is about you and that you are only using her for your satisfaction, and I bet you, you will not enjoy your time with her. Also in the process of lovemaking, if your wife resists and forbids you to touch any one or more of her sex organs, abide by her wishes and never force your way to compel her to mental withdrawal and physical inertia. Adequate foreplay Before the act, a man should take time to excite his wife gently, carefully, slowly and tenderly. Never plunge yourself at once into intercourse. Foreplay is a reliable method of preparing you and your spouse for the coming event. The time spent in foreplay must never be seen as being wasted. Quality time spent in foreplay is what culminates into great sex. Fondle, caress, cuddle, kiss, and pamper each and every erogenous zone- but very slowly. During the course of foreplay, the man should allow his wife to guide him as to which sex organs she wishes, rather prefers, to be touched.

How interest mismanagement gave rise to PDP-LP dichotomy in Ebonyi Kenneth Ofoma, Abakaliki

T

here is no doubt that Ebonyi before now used to be a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) state. Since the inception of the current democratic dispensation in 1999, the party had held sway in the state in all the general elections. It was only in the 2011 elections that the opposition made marginal incursion when the defunct All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP) which has now become part of the All Progressives Congress (APC) won two state Assembly seats and one House of Representatives’ seat. However, all that is about to change. The dominance of the PDP in Ebonyi State will be punctured in the 2015 general elections. And this is going to happen not mainly due to the growing strength of the opposition parties, but due to self … * division of the party into two equal parts, with one part moving in droves to occupy a hitherto not-existent Labour Party (LP) in the state. But the interesting part is that the faction that moved into the LP has obvious advantage of incumbency factor because that is where you have all the serving members of the state Executive Council, chairmen of the 13 local government caretaker "

# <¸ development centres, chairmen of boards, government parastatals and * # traditional rulers. The only people in government remaining in the PDP are the state governor, Chief Martin Elechi, and his deputy, Engr. Dave Umahi, who are now strange bed fellows. Elechi had recently announced that he would not leave the PDP but that he would not stop his supporters from pursuing their political interests in other parties. According to him, “you can’t beat a child and stop him from crying.â€? Recall that the crisis in the Ebonyi PDP started with the November 1, 2014 ward congresses and subsequent primaries of the party to elect its candidates for the state Assembly, National Assembly and governorship positions. Governor Elechi had made it clear that he wanted former Minister of Health, Prof. Onyebuchi Chukwu, to succeed him. But his deputy, Umahi is also interested in the position. Following political alignment and re-alignments, Umahi found himself receiving support from the Secretary to the Federal Government (SGF), Senator Anyim Pius Anyim, and the former governor of the state, Dr. Sam Egwu, who himself is running for the senatorial seat of Ebonyi North district of the state. Governor Elechi had earlier announced publicly that the incumbent senator, Chris Nwankwo would return to the Senate - meaning that Egwu has to wait for another eight years. But he said no! Other political actors not favoured by Governor Elechi’s power sharing * # Umahi and they wrestled the structure of the party as well as party delegates and candidates from Governor Elechi. In all the party primaries, the Umahi camp had 100 per cent advantage over Elechi, of course,

Elechi with the cooperation of the party’s 0 '  " (NWC), and perhaps the presidency. The last straw that broke the camel’s back was the governorship primary of the party in December, 2014, when Chief Umahi emerged the winner for the party towards the 2015 governorship election in the state. Umahi defeated six others that stood for the election after polling a total of 541 votes, with his closest rival, Senator Paulinus Igwe Nwagu polling 15 votes. Meanwhile, Governor Elechi and his supporters, including former minister of Health, Prof. Chukwu who is also a governorship aspirant " The Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Dr. Onyekachi Eni, in a PDP under the leadership of Elechi had not participated in all the primaries in the state since November 24, when the NWC of the party announced the postponement of the exercise in Ebonyi, Adamawa Ondo and Taraba states. He stated that the main stream PDP in the state had stayed away from the splinter group primaries in the state. According to him, Elechi was not participating and has not participated in the primaries. Two days after the PDP primaries, the main splinter group, consisting Elechi’s supporters collapsed into the LP as over 300,000 aggrieved members defected to the party. The decampees formerly moved to the LP during its primary election at the Abakaliki Township Stadium in protest for being neglected by the national leadership of the PDP. Some members of the Elechi’s cabinet also defected. They are Celestine Nwali, Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy !

Anyim of Edon Group, Arch. Edward Nkwegu from Ebonyi North senatorial district (old Abakaliki bloc) emerged as the party’s gubernatorial candidate. Nkwaegu who was the only candidate for the position, in his acceptance speech promised to industrialise the state and create employment, adding that he would run an all-inclusive government. He said: “Ebonyi people should expect industrialisation. We shall build on the legacy of the PDP. Democracy supersedes other sentiments. It is all about service to the people. We are going to provide & industry and ensure an all-inclusive government.� But even as the structure of the ruling PDP in the state appear to have been taken away from him, Governor Elechi recently declared that he * Elechi, who made the declaration during a town hall meeting at the Women Development Centre (WDC), Abakaliki, told the people not to worry about him concerning the rumoured impeachment plan against him by his estranged deputy and PDP gubernatorial candidate, Chief Umahi, the Speaker of the state Assembly, Chukwuma Nwazunku and their collaborators. He said he was ready to face anti # # misdeeds that might be levelled against him, even as he maintained his support for the re-election of President Goodluck Jonathan for another term. The governor, who traced the genesis of the political crisis rocking the state, noted that both internal and external collaborators were colluding to take over the state by force for their the foremost cement plant in Nigeria, the Nigeria Cement Company (Nigercem), Nkalagu in Ishielu Local Government Area of the state was part of the problem he was having with his tormentors. “In the interim, I have said I cannot stop an aggrieved person from crying, you can beat a child but you cannot stop the child from crying. And therefore, much as I’m losing my supporters to the LP and other parties, I see them as crying children who feel aggrieved. Ultimately, what & # & # & you are, vote for President Jonathan.

Onyebuchi “Consistent with our campaign, unless and until Nigercem is sequestered and managed by the people of Ebonyi State and their government, Ebonyi State is not yet created. Where else in Nigeria could what is happening there now happen? But the people of the state are being denied the right to own what God gave them in their own state. “I have always said, even if the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is unwilling, invite them to come and inspect our books, look at everything we have done. I’m ready to answer any question, anytime, unless by impeachment it means outright hanging without questioning, then you can do that and get away with it, otherwise, do not be worried. “I’m encouraged also by your assurances that yes after the founding fathers had run a good race, we should hand over the baton to the succeeding generation and you will not disappoint us. Ebonyi State is # & # to bribe people but our prayers are heard in high heavens and so we shall God is above any machinery of war,� he said. Just as the PDP and LP are # " traditional opposition party in the state, the All Progressives Congress (APC) concluded its primaries with two-term senator (2003-2011), Senator

Julius Ali Ucha emerging the party’s Â… 2 # 2 drawn primary election that lasted two days. Ucha, the pioneer Speaker of the state Assembly (1999-2003) and grassroots politician decamped from the PDP to the ANPP in 2011 to contest the governorship of the state which he lost to the incumbent, Elechi. But it is to his credit that the ANPP won the two state Assembly and one House of Representatives seats in the state in 2011. He is of Ezza extraction in Ishielu Local Government Area in Ebonyi Central senatorial district (also old Abakaliki bloc). The APC primaries which took place at the party’s state secretariat in Abakaliki was contested by three governorship aspirants including, Ucha, Austine Edeze and Dr. Steve Egbo. Ucha garnered 891 votes out of the 1923 votes cast, while Edeze came š € ;ž< votes while 48 votes were declared invalid.  # "  # 5 the results commended the delegates for their patience and comportment throughout the exercise.

Perhaps, due to the growing tempo and popularity of the LP guber candidate, the PDP elements have been thrown into panic, as all the candidates of the party recently * that Governor Elechi is trying to cause the defeat of the PDP in the state. Nkwegu is also from the Izzi sub-ethnic group, the most populous in the state. In fact, his senatorial zone, Ebonyi North, is said to have 48 per cent of registered voters in the state, while Umahi’s Ebonyi South > ¸ Ucha’s Central has 23 per cent. But the fear lies in the fact that Ebonyi North and Ebonyi Central districts belong to the old Abakaliki bloc and same ancestral origin, and can any day strike a deal against their southern brothers who are in the minority, and who have been clamouring for power shift to their zone. And that old sentiment has been on a steady rise since the humiliation PDP meted to Elechi.

With due respect to other contestants, the next state governor is among the three of us. You cannot just bring any novice to rule. You need an experienced man to govern Oyo State. But some people readily associate your regime with thuggery and violence, especially among the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) members in the state? Haba! O.k. The violence that erupted a fortnight ago at Born Photo, Iyana Asuni and Foko areas in Ibadan, am I the one in government? This incident happened in the most indigenous areas of Ibadan.

We learn every day. Things that I left undone will be done. The ones that I did would be improved upon. I am ever ready to correct what is believed to be the mistakes of the past. In the same vein, I will improve on my past achievements. Nothing is as good as experience. Besides, my party, the LP puts the welfare of people at the centre of its programmes. So, we shall implement people-oriented programmes. I am only appealing to the good people of Oyo State to vote for me and my party.

Beside, the LP has a very simple logo - father, mother and child - signifying a whole happy family. Or, who will not want to be a member of a happy family?

He lamented that “if you call what the Jang government has done for Plateau State the building of a dynasty, then we embrace our membership of a dynasty that entrenches good governance, equity and sensitivity to the plight of the needy, and say we shall continue to support it. “We reject and collectively condemn " cheap political points by insulting our ‘ " " # “We urge the youths of Plateau State not to succumb to any form of negative instigation.

Cooperative societies:Panacea to rejuvenated economy The co-operative society is a veritable instrument used by workers to improve their economic situations. Most well run cooperative societies have helped their members to actualise their economic goals, through credit facilities and welfare packages. The importance of the union led the United Unions (UN) to declare 2012 as the international year of cooperatives. Recently, one of the foremost cooperative federations, the Lagos State Cooperative Federation (LASCOFED), celebrated distinguished past leaders in its 62 years of existence. JOHNMARK UKOKO reports.

Gov Fashola

The LASCOFED boss opined that some organisations’ cooperative societies do not remit the contributions workers have made to the unions, thereby halting the growth of such cooperative societies.

He said many workers who ordinarily would have remained poor, due to the low salaries and entitlements they earn from their organisations have become comfortable or even rich due to their membership of cooperative societies. According to him, “Many workers who were once poor are today comfortable or rich, owing to their membership of cooperative societies.
