Senate urges FG to tackle poverty Short News Delta to revamp moribund industries, others as suicide rate increases Tunde Opalana, Abuja

As cases of suicide is on the increase in Nigeria, the Senate having identified economic depression and induced poverty as major causes of suicide in the country has urged the federal government to increase the funding of social security programmes. The Senate agreed to engage the executive arm of government on the need to expand the scope and content of the Special Intervention Programmes of government, and to leverage on extant schemes like the N -Power in creating economic opportunities for the vulnerable sections of the population. Also, the Senate as a means of controlling the effects of stress and depression, called for the establishment of trauma centres across the country as well as tasking the Federal Ministry of Information, the National Orientation Agency and Federal Ministry of Health to create awareness on how to tame the scourge. It therefore, urged the government to ban the production, importation or circulation of sniper insecticide, a product currently used to commit suicide. The senators further added that the National Universities Commission

(NUC) should review the school curriculum to come up with compulsory courses that will enable students place value on their lives and detest from committing suicide. These resolutions followed a motion on the “Rising incidence of suicides amongst Nigerians” sponsored by Senator Theodore Orji (Abia Central) and 15 others at plenary on Tuesday. The Senate expressed grave concern about the rising cases of suicides, particularly among young Nigerians in recent times and that a significant number of people with suicidal intentions keep their thoughts and feelings secret, and show no sign that anything is wrong if they don’t have anyone to confide in. Leading the debate, Sen. Orji noted that “an idea can occur when someone feels depressed or stressed without assistance or advise from close friends, religious institutions, the government or any relevant institution, thereby giving them room to feel that they are no longer important in the society. “And when they are not able to cope with the overwhelming situation of life which could be financial problems, death of loved ones and even broken relationships which is very popular amongst the youth in Nigeria or serious illness, they choose

suicide as an option. “Suicide can be prevented particularly, when family, friends and close relatives of the person contemplating suicide provide support, either by way of encouragement, listening to them and keeping them safe by staying around them, removing means of committing suicide such as knives, ropes, dangerous drugs and chemicals especially sniper.” The Senate sais it is worried that the number of Nigerians taking their lives has assumed frightening dimensions of late while the government, religious institutions and other corporate bodies have not addressed the ugly situation in the country, expressing worry that the situation may continue if not properly addressed. Many senators who contributed to the debate blamed increased stress and depression on the economic downturn in the country which has pauperized several million of Nigerians. Senators Adenrele Oriolowo (Osun Central), Opeyemi Bamidele (Ekiti/ APC), Dino Melaye (Kogi West) and Rochas Okorocha (Imo West) among others lamented the dangerous dimension of poverty ravaging the country, insisting that government at different levels have not done enough to address poverty.

Nosa Akenzua, Asaba

Delta state government says it has taken steps to revamp moribund industries across the state as measures to provide employment for the citizens of the state. The state Commissioner for Commerce and Industry, Chika Ossai, who spoke to journalists in Asaba, said he was committed to accelerated industrialization and enhanced commercial activities as his priorities in the next four years He explained that through well articulated and accelerated industrialization, the economic index of the state would be enhanced as more job opportunities would be created thereby reducing the unemployment ratio of the state “Industries are part of the ministry and at present, the moribund industries in the state would be revamped and within four years we will definitely look at them with a view of reviving them as this will be very important to the youth who have no jobs after their university education. So, if we focus on industrialization, a good number of those youth would be absorbed and will in a long way help in reducing crime,” the commissioner said Ossai warned against any form of inactivity among staffers of the ministry and urged Deltans to rise up to their responsibilities in ensuring that the vision of the state governor is achieved, especially in the area of industrialization and enhanced commercial activities.

Oyo gov’ship: INEC closes case in Adelabu’s petition against Makinde

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has closed its case in the petition filed by the APC candidate, Adebayo Adelabu, against the victory of Governor Seyi Makinde of the PDP in the March 9 governorship election in Oyo state. INEC’ s counsel, Akinlolu Kehinde (SAN), closed the case on Tuesday after calling only one witness in the petition before the Oyo state Governorship Election Petition Tribunal. Kehinde told the tribunal that he was closing his case because INEC had discharged its burden of proof on the matter based on the evidences of his witness and petitioners’ witnesses. INEC only called Mrs. Kehinde Aderike, an INEC staff who was the electoral officer in Ibadan South East Local Government during the election. The tribunal led by Justice Muhammed Sirajo called on Makinde’s counsel, Ahamefula Ejelam (SAN) to open his case. Ejelam told the tribunal that he did not envisage that INEC would only call one witness and close its case. According to him, his witnesses were coming from different local governments in Oyo state and that he needed time to contact them, and therefore, prayed the tribunal to adjourn the case till Thursday for him to open his case and an adjournment was consequently granted by the tribunal.

Senate seeks UN probe of 9 Short News A’Ibom varsity donates 2 surveillance Nigerians killed in Libya vehicles to police Tunde Opalana, Abuja

The Senate has called on the United Nations (UN) to investigate the killing of nine Nigerians which occurred during a double air strikes on a detention centre outside Tripoli, the Libyan capital. Senate made the call following the adoption of a motion sponsored by Senator Barau Jibrin (Kano North) and 36 other senators on the death of the nine Nigerian migrants in Libya. Sen. Jibrin while presenting the motion said the death of the nine Nigerians occurred following the attack which was carried out on the hapless migrant civilians. He said the death toll from the air strike on the detention centre has been reviewed to 53 from 44 while

more bodies were still being pulled out of the rubble, indicating that the count has not stopped. The senator said that reports indicate that refuges and migrants were directly fired by guards as they tried to escape which resulted in the death of nine Nigerians, adding that the strike was the second time that the Tajore detention centre which houses around 600 migrants has been hit during the ongoing conflict in Libya. He said that the detention of migrants from Nigeria and other SubSaharan African countries to Europe was not the answer to the protection of people on the move, asserting that alternative and sustainable solutions must be developed to protect the vulnerable migrants. According to him, the air strike

on migrants’ detention centre that led to the killing of Nigerians has sparked international outcry, just as senators who supported the motion, condemned the killing of the migrants in its entirety. Consequently, the Senate resolved to call on the UN to investigate the killing, find out the perpetrators and bring them to justice. Also, it urged the Libyan government to immediately release the refuges and migrants from detention centres and relocate them to safe shelters. The Senate further commended the federal government for its effort on the reparation of Nigerian migrants from Libya and urged the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to continue the repatriation of the remaining Nigerian citizens in Libyan detention camps.

Worried by the level of insecurity at the Akwa Ibom state University, the management of the institution has donated two surveillance vehicles to the state police command for monitoring security situation in the two campuses of the university. The two surveillance vehicles would serve at the main campus of the university in Ikot Akpaden, Mkpat Enin Local Government Area and Obio Akpa sub- campus in OrukAnam Local Government Area respectively. Presenting the vehicles to the state Police Commissioner, Zaki Ahmed, the Vice Chancellor of Akwa Ibom state University, Prof. Eno Ibanga said the donation of the surveillance vehicles to the police is a fulfilment of his promise to security operatives during the last stakeholders meeting he had with the host communities of the institution. Prof. Ibanga said the meeting was held in the wake of security threats in the university occasioned by the killing of a student by hoodlums and prevalence of other violent crimes in the institution. “Definitely, whatever we promised during the security meeting has been fulfilled even beyond. Remember, we said I would ask Governor Udom Emmanuel to do a perimeter fence and when the governor commissioned internal roads in the university, he ordered for perimeter fencing to be installed in the campus for the safety of our students,” he recalled. Prof. Ibanga commended the police for their dexterity in handling security issues on campus and hopes that the vehicles would assist them to curb the insecurity that is threatening the peace of the institution in recent times. “The police have been doing their work. Most of you sleep and don’t know what happens. Last night, I was on phone with the commissioner of police and the divisional police officer of OrukAnam Local Government Area and one of the university host communities because of the incident that happened. “I expect the police to rise to the occasion in matters of security in the university to protect lives and properties in the institution,” he said. Responding, the state Commissioner of Police, Zakari Ahmed said security issues need total collaboration between the police and members of the public and appreciated the university’s management for the contribution to security operations around the university community

Plateau: Group accuses Lalong of mapping out land for Ruga Kingsley Chukwuka, Jos A group under the aegis of Concerned Youth of Bokkos Local Government Area of Plateau state has alleged that Governor Simon Lalong has mapped out a large space of land for the proposed RUGA activities. The group which spoke at a press briefing in Jos on Tuesday accused Lalong of not consulting any chief or elder of Bokkos before donating land for the project. Spokesman for the youth group, Macham Makut, addressing journalists said that “we heard from a very reliable source that some large portion of our land has been mapped out by the Lalong- led government for the Ruga settlement, this is unfortunate and as a people, we will resist the move by government to cede our ancestral lands to strangers

to rear cattle.” Makut also said the suspension of the Ruga policy by the federal government is a gimmick, saying that the Presidency is planning to reintroduce the policy in another brand. “We are aware that only the unilateral implementation of the Ruga programme was suspended. This was not even because Nigerians opposed it, but because it was not in accordance with the design approved by the national executive council and national economic council. “Any attempt to force the policy on our farming communities in Bokkos Local Government Area, now or later, under whatever name will be firmly resisted through all available legal means. The best option is for every livestock farmer to cage his animals and raise them privately without constituting a nuisance,” he added.

The group said the policy is not in the interest of the natives, adding that the policy was drawn without the consent and inputs of the farmers whose lands are expected to be converted to Ruga and as such the scheme is highly questionable and is tantamount to land-grabbing. Makut said the nine communities that were sacked by suspected herdsmen in Bokkos in the attack which took place in 2018, where over 7, 000 persons who were displaced and have not been resettled even after the Presidency has made promises. Instead, the federal government is making efforts to resettle herdsmen in other people’s land. “Farmers who were violently evicted from their homes remain in IDP camps and other uninhabitable shelter while the federal government is making efforts to resettle herdsmen in our communities,” Makut enthused.

President Muhammadu Buhari has sought the confirmation of the Senate for the appointment of Prof. Habu Galadima as the substantive director-general of the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies (NIPSS), Kuru, Jos. President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan read the letter from the President to his colleagues during plenary on Tuesday. Buhari said in his correspondence dated July 9, that his request for the confirmation was backed by Section 8 (5) of the NIPSS Act, which empowers him to forward name of nominees for the office to the Senate for confirmation. He appealed to the senators to give their necessary support that would ensure the smooth screening and confirmation of Prof. Galadima, stating further that he attached a copy of the nominee’s curriculum vitae to the letter to further enable the Senate have more information about the nominee. In a similar letter read by the President of the Senate, Buhari also requested the Senate to confirm the appointment of Uba Maska as executive director of the National Communication Commission (NCC). The letter quoted Section 8 (1) of the NCC Act as empowering the President to seek the Senate confirmation.

Okowa assures corps members of security in Delta Nosa Akenzua, Asaba Delta state Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa has allayed the fear of the unknown over alleged increasing security challenges in the state, saying that it has been dealt with decisively by his administration. Gov. Okowa, who made this known at the passing out ceremony of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) batch B, stream one corps members posted to the state at the orientation camp in Issele Uku, said “Delta state is safe and hospitable. We have reduced security challenges to the lowest ebb and businesses are going on well.” He assured the corps members of his commitment in assisting them in skills acquisitions. Represented by the Commissioner for Higher Education, Prof. Patrick Muoboghare, the governor said that the state government will continue to support corps members in skill acquisition in order to professionalise and deepen their chosen skills during their service year. He disclosed that his administration has deliberately embarked on the basic provision of infrastructural development, opening up the rural areas, making the state more investment friendly and creating more economic avenues to make the people selfreliant through skill acquisition. While urging the corps members to eschew cultism and other criminal activities, Gov. Okowa enjoined them to seize the opportunity to overcome the challenges of postservice unemployment through the available veritable self -employment initiatives in the state. He warned them to moderate the ecstasy of their current freedom in their undertakings and try as much as possible to reduce unnecessary travels during the year, adding that “this could be a tempting period for most of you to pursue some adventures most of which could be either detrimental to your future or pose serious dangers to your lives.” Earlier, the state NYSC Coordinator, Omotade Benjamin said that the commitment of the corps members during the last three weeks of the programme was patriotic and charged them to unleash their potentials and leadership skills to tackle difficulties and challenges when encountered. Omotade commended the state government for its unflinching support towards making corps members serving in the state selfreliant and productive.

Youths, wake up and smell the coffee!

Emmanuel Onwubiko

As a young school leaver still deciding what to do with my young creative life, I encountered a political journal from the rich collections of books in my elder brother’s law library which spoke to the issues of America’s contemporary politics. My elder brother, who is almost 40 years post-call as a lawyer, is one person that I closely followed because of his unique love for books. By that time I only just left the Teachers College in Kafanchan, the United States held a unique fascination as a political Eldorado whereby there was a regime of free speech and fundamental freedoms. This was in the late 1980’s. I do recall reading one of the juiciest political pieces published in that journal known as Dialogue which specifically dealt with the peculiarly fascinating topic of “The American talent for disorder”. The writer of this piece is James Fallows described as a foremost United States widely travelled journalist. He affirmed in that piece as follows: “America’s culture is America’s greatest potential strength. Something about American values has enabled ordinary peoples, assembled haphazardly from around the world, to build the largest, richest and freest economy in history and to do so mainly through voluntary actions rather than state direction. The essence of this approach, the true American genius, is a talent for disorder” He delved into the comparative study of what American society is put side by side with one of the most prosperous nations on the planet Earth- Japan. Mr. Fallows says: “Japan, for example, gets the most out of ordinary people by organizing them to adapt and succeed. America, by getting out of their way so that they can adjust individually, allows them succeed. America opens its doors and brings the world’s disorder in. it tolerates social change that would tear most other

societies apart. This openness encourages Americans to adapt as individuals rather than as a group.” He then stated that only but few other societies could endure the unsettled conditions that have always typified America. Many nations he said would be shattered by the threat of substantial immigration. Few other western societies have seen women’s roles change as dramatically as in United States, he stressed. Historically, he affirmed that in 1980, one American family in 30 moved to a different state. Only one of 90 families in England and one of 80 in West Germany made similar moves. He submitted correctly that America not only can tolerate these disruptions, it needs them. Ceaseless internal change is good for the country; he suggested and added that this causes America to bring out the best voluntary efforts of its ordinary people by offering them the constant prospect of changing their fortunes, their identities, and their roles in life. Americans are most likely to try hard, adapt and succeed when they believe that they can improve their luck, that the rules of competition are more or less fair and that if they take a risk and fail, they won’t be destroyed, he asserted. James Fallows then showed the stuff he is made up of as an objective journalist when he affirmed that although these conditions have never been entirely met – the competition has never been completely fair; some people have been permanently stuck; many have been ruined when they took a chance – they have been closer to realization in the United States than anywhere else. In a country cobbled together from so many races and religions, the belief in playing by similar rules is the source of such “community” as America can have”,

he asserted. Hear his core arguments as follows: “America’s talent for disorder allows it to get surprising results from average people by putting them in situations where old rules and limits don’t apply. That’s the meaning of immigration, of the frontier, of leaving the farm for the big city, of going to college or night school to make a new start. No other society has managed disorder so well in the past; none of its competitors need to keep promoting disorder, by endlessly rotating establishments, as much as America does.” These facts are self-evident because there is hardly any Nigerian community whereby someone who is from a humble background has not travelled and settled in the United States of America and worked hard that has not attained phenomenal heights. Nearly three decades down the line, I have found a new perfect correlation between what this American journalist wrote about in 1986 to the dominant theme of conversations actively engaged in by millions of Nigerian youths who can be said to be enormously endowed with talent for disorder but in the same mindset as posited by the American journalist but most of whom have accidentally projected these talents towards doing those things that lead inevitably to self-destruction. These talents of most of Nigerian youths are being put into negative disorder. This is hardly a debatable fact. I have therefore decided that the only way the Nigerian youths can take their rightful position in the Nigerian context is for them to decide to deploy some of these talents for disorder into constructive positivism. The Nigerian youth must now wake up and smell the coffee. This is because, there is an ongoing generational threats erected to slow down their march towards occupying their rightful positions as

leaders of today in all aspects of Nigeria’s national life. Today, the youths of Nigeria more than ever before, are subjected to systemic and systematic profiling as criminals by those who control the machinery of law enforcement who are doing these dirty jobs for the old brigades who are bent on holding on to the different layers of control in politics, economy and all aspects of our national life. If you flip through the pages of newspapers always, you would always read about the convictions of dozens of youngsters by the courts over issues that border on what the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) calls advanced fees fraud. These youths are paraded globally as crooks even when the establishment could have used lawful means to obtain non-custodial transformation and get these youngsters to refocus their talents into creatively constructive ventures. On the average, the nation’s prisons receive at least one dozen Nigerian youth per week as inmates and when you analyze their alleged offences and put them side by side with the gravity of monumental financial crimes committed by the old brigades and old breed politicians who control political powers, these petty crimes pale into insignificance. I then ask myself why are the Nigerian youths been selectively targeted by the Nigerian state whereas big politically exposed individuals in their 60’s who have soiled their hands by stealing our commonwealth are consolidating their control of the political and governance machinery of the Nigerian state. The answer to this line of inquiry is for the youths to transform their talents for disorder into some meaningful purposes and begin to reclaim their proper positions in Nigeria. The Nigerian youths must wake up and smell the coffee.

Solid minerals as revenue earner?

Eze Onyekpere

For so many years, following the lead of the resources that came into the national treasury from oil and gas, the mining of solid minerals has been touted as the next big source of revenue. The memories of solid minerals exploitation, including tin and coal, before the discovery of oil provided some nostalgia about bringing back old revenue sources to life. Initially, the poor revenue stream from solid minerals was blamed on outdated policies and laws and the lack of reforms in the sector. Our expectation of easy money was in consonance with our national attitude of simply finding something in the ground that will become a source of revenue, inviting foreigners to come and extract same and exporting the raw produce without adding value. Enter the Nigerian Minerals and Mining Act, which was introduced to repeal the Minerals and Mining Act, No.34 of 1999 and enact the Nigerian Minerals and Mining Act, 2007 for the purposes of regulating all aspects of the exploration and exploitation of solid minerals in Nigeria and for related purposes. The Act is very detailed as it makes provisions on such issues as the ownership and control of minerals; administrative provisions, including functions of the Minister, establishment of the Mining Cadastral Office, Mines Inspectorate Department; mining incentives, including tax reliefs, establishment of the Solid Minerals Development Fund; minerals exploitation and mining; quarrying and roads. It also provides for injuries and accidents, small scale mining, possession

and purchase of minerals. Other issues provided in the Act include environmental considerations – prevention of pollution, host community rights, establishment of the Environmental Protection and Rehabilitation Programme and Environmental Protection and Rehabilitation Fund. The Ministry of Mines and Steel has also devised a roadmap for deepen reforms, organised various workshops, seminars, road shows, et cetera, to strengthen the sector as a revenue earner that will also create jobs and deepen industrialisation through beneficiation and local value added. Twelve years after the coming into force of the Act; how have we fared? What are the achievements? Two critical issues will point in the direction of how we have fared. They are the revenue stream from the sector and the implementation of the environmental provisions of the Act, which is also related to the issue of revenue. This poser is raised within the context of section 1 of the Act, which states that the entire property in and control of all mineral resources in, under or upon, any land in Nigeria, its contiguous continental shelf and all rivers, streams and water courses throughout Nigeria, any area covered by its territorial waters or constituency and the Exclusive Economic Zone is and shall be vested in the Federal Government for and on behalf of the people of Nigeria. Thus, the romance with solid minerals, as a new revenue earner, was not in a vacuum. It was an expectation backed by law. It is also raised within the context of the acknowledgement in the sectoral road map of the existence of various types of solid

minerals. The roadmap states examples of high value metallic minerals in Nigeria to include gold, coltan, lead-zinc, iron ore, cassiterite, etc. The examples of industrial minerals include limestone, barite, clays etc. while energy minerals include coal, lignite and bitumen among others. In the 2019 proposed budget currently before the legislature, the Federal Government’s share of Minerals and Mining is N1.29bn. The Medium-term Expenditure Framework projects the income from the sector for 2020 and 2021 as N1.375bn and N1.469bn, respectively. With this level of expected revenue, it is clear that the reforms proposed in the sector have not worked and there is no plan to make the reforms work, considering the projections for 2020 and 2021. It is also acknowledged that the major mining companies are yet to invest in the Nigerian solid minerals sector. Despite this poor revenue stream, there are reports of various mining activities going on across the Federation. Some of the activities have even resulted in harm to life and property, like the lead poisoning and deaths. In the last few days, following incessant attacks and deaths from bandits in Zamfara state, the Federal Government announced the ban on mining activities in the state. This is a good acknowledgement that mining (legal or illegal) has been going on in the state. Also quarrying activities are common across the federation and the major construction companies operating in Nigeria have taken advantage of these quarrying activities as a source of raw materials for construction works. Whether these companies are paying the revenue

due to the government is another unverified matter. But it can be asserted without fear of contradiction that if the government simply expects this paltry sum, then, many of the quarrying and mining activities are just going on without remittance of due revenue. However, in the 2019 proposed budget, the ministry, through whose activities this paltry sum is expected, has a vote of N20.4bn. The Act calls for the establishment of the Environmental Protection Rehabilitation Fund to be funded by mineral extracting companies as provided in section 121 of the Act. However, there is no assurance that the fund has been established 12 years down the line. One of the votes in the 2019 proposal calls for N450m for the reclamation of abandoned mining sites. The same sum was proposed in the 2018 federal budget. If the fund had been set up, enough resources should have been saved in the fund since 2007 so that pressure to fund remediation will not be put on the treasury. This will be in accordance with best practices in the Polluter Pays Principle and Miners’ Responsibility for environmental remediation. In the light of the foregoing, it has become imperative to review the implementation of the Act and take steps to ensure that its provisions are respected to yield the desired dividends. This will involve getting the right leadership for the ministry and taking care of all policy, infrastructure and financial challenges. If other countries, less endowed in terms of human and material resources are earning high revenues from this sector, we should at least understudy what they have done so as to learn and improve revenues from the sector.

Editorial Commentary NEWS Ogoni Survival Movement slams group for seeking HYREP coordinator’s removal The Ogoni Survival Movement (OSM) has condemned in all its entirety calls for the removal of Dr. Marvin Dekil, the Co-ordinator of the Hydro Carbon Remediation Project (HYREP) by faceless groups referring to themselves as the ‘National Youth Council of Ogoni People’ and the ‘Ogoni Youth Coalition Movement’ describing such as `mischievous, malicious, preposterous, unfounded and egregious in all negative ramifications and must be condemned in its entirety by right thinking and well meaning members of society including the stoic and peace loving Ogoni people`. Clarifying further, the OSM in a communiqué signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Comrade Johnson Wibe and made available to newsmen in Port-Harcourt stated that: ‘The achievements of the Hydro Carbon Remediation Project (HYREP) otherwise known as the Ogoni Oil Spill Clean Up Project under the leadership of the Project Co-ordinator, Dr. Marvin Dekil, a renowned environmental expert has been commended by numerous international environmental and conservation groups including the Greenpeace Movement, the World Wide Life Fund, the Friends of the Earth, the Habitat for All Foundation, the Agenda Against Climate Change amongst others due to the fact that HYREP has made appreciable progress in its ultimate objective of completely reversing the debilitating effects of oil exploration and exploitation in Ogoni land while engaging, enlightening, sensitizing and empowering the various communities that make up its area of assignment. Any visitor to Ogoni land will attest to the fact that the cleanup process is moving at a frenetic pace, day and night and the vast majority of the indigenesare quite satisfied with the activities of the HYREPstaff and management which

has contributed in no small measure to the peace and tranquility prevailing in the area, compared to other parts of River State that are witnessing increasing spates of cult related violence, kidnapping, illegal bunkering etc. While the HYPREP management has ensured that the Ogoni ethnic nationality are fully involved and well represented in all activities of HYREP it must be emphasized that it should not be at the expense of or in total disregard of the tenets of transparency, accountability and due process . Those who feel that HYPREP was established for undue patronage, reckless award of contracts and the siphoning of government funds under the guise of empowering of the host community are not been fair to the Federal Government, the HYREP management or the Ogoni people themselves. If contracts are awarded to unqualified and unreliable contractors and they are not held accountable or properly monitored as to the prompt execution of those contracts, the Ogoni community will be the utmost losers. So we should stoutly resist any attempt by selfish or misguided elements to derail the laudable objectives of the federal government in setting up HYREP. The Ogoni people should discourage any willful or self centered attempts by certain mischievous individuals or groups in their midst to once again sow division, rancor, acrimony and even violence in our land, rather we should all join hands with the HYREP management led by the energetic Dr. Marvin Dekil and all well meaning Ogoni politicians, elders, traditional rulers, professionals and leaders of thought to ensure that the total verifiable and irreversible clean up of the Ogoni environment is achieved for the benefit of our generation, our children`s generation and generation yet unborn. To God be the glory`--- the OSM communiqué concluded.

We’re monitoring states promises to illegal immigrants – NAPTIP The National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Person (NAPTIP) says it is monitoring the promises made by each state government to the returned illegal immigrants through taskforces. The Director-General of the agency, Mrs Julie Okah-Donli, disclosed this in an on Tuesday in Abuja. According to her, the agency is monitoring the promises made by the various state governments through the Human Trafficking Taskforces that has been established in the states. “We have decided to set up taskforces in all the 36 states of the federation, which is the easiest way to monitor the agency activities in the states. “The Human Trafficking Taskforces has all the critical stakeholders drawn from the states, we have representatives from the media, we have from foreign affairs, the Police and the Immigration,” she said.

According to Okah-Donli, with the establishment of taskforces, it will be very easy for the government and the state governors or the state government own taskforce to come out with programmes of empowerment for the illegal immigrants. The director-general said that with the collaboration of the Zonal Commandants of NAPTIP in various states and the Attorney General, who is the chairperson of the taskforces, the state taskforces are empowered to carry out different programmes. “Programmes for their indigenes, programme for awareness creation, prosecuting, arresting and many more,” she stressed. According to Okah-Donli, the states are expected to domesticate the Violence Against Person’s Prohibition (VAPA) Act 2015 to guard against human rights violation across the states.

OUR POSITION

The return of History to our schools The decision of the Federal Government directing all primary and secondary schools across the country to immediately implement the teaching of History as a standalone subject from the next academic calendar is very welcome. Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Education, Mr. Sonny Echono, who disclosed the directive in Abuja recently, said the Federal Government will also ensure that all primary school teachers are trained to deliver digital literacy. According to Echono, the directive had already been given and it is automatic that all the schools should implement simultaneously. We commend the Federal Government for listening to the concerns expressed by many Nigerians and its wise decision to bring History back to schools. No doubt, the teaching of History in our schools will go a long way in fostering nation building, national identity, patriotism and overall human development in the country. The importance of History cannot be overemphasised. History, it should be noted, provides the students with the knowledge of the past, and its influences on the present and the future. Now that the error of removing History from the schools’ curriculum has been corrected, the emphasis should be on the teaching of Nigerian history, including our origin, cultures, our commonalities as well as differences. Our students should be taught about the Nok culture, the Igbo Ukwu, Benin and Ife arts among others. These cultural landmarks are associated with the history and archeology of our land. They should also be taught about the history of the various people that make up Nigeria before, during and after colonialism. There is the need to teach them about slavery, colonialism, the nationalist struggles and

attainment of independence. They should be taught the history of the Nigerian Civil War and other wars fought among the various ethnic nationalities that make up the country. There is a significant body of international academic research that shows that the role of history education, in developing a sound knowledge of the history of one’s own country and of the wider world, can contribute to progressive democratic citizenship. In a world where we are often bombarded with a wide range of electronic information of varying degrees of intellectual rigour and quality, and in a world where there are real concerns about the phenomenon of “fake news”, it is important that our young people have the ability to evaluate source material and to develop analytical skills, which the study of history teaches us. The progressive teaching of history can foster a sense of inclusion, a respect for diversity and also strengthen awareness of civic responsibilities in the emerging generation, now in our schools and colleges, who will help shape the future of our nation. Also, we cannot be truly united when Nigerian history is not taught in our schools. In fact, some of the crises of nationhood plaguing Nigeria today can be traced to lack of knowledge of Nigerian history. It is very sad that most Nigerians today think more about their ethnic nationalities and less of the country. We call on the curriculum designers to make the teaching of History appealing and attractive to the students through the use of modern teaching aids. For us to build a strong and virile nation, the emphasis should be on inculcating in our students the virtues of nationalism, unity and patriotism. They should love and think of Nigeria first before any other consideration. History can be used as a veritable tool to achieve these lofty goals.

Court adjourns N86.9m unpaid salaries suit in Kwara The National Industrial Court of Nigeria (NICN) sitting in Akure, Ondo state has adjourned till October 15 for continued hearing, a case of N86.9 million unpaid salaries and entitlements filed by 56 revenue advisers in Kwara state. Justice Abiola Adewemimo, a judge in industrial court adjourned the case on Tuesday during a sitting in the case between Ishola Oladimeji and 55 others as claimants, and Dr. Abdulwahab Ibrahim, Dr. Abdulwahab Ibrahim, Oluwafadekemi Ajao, Mudasiru Akintola and Firmus Integrated Resources. Counsel to all claimants, Dayo Akinlaja (SAN), after calling his second witness, Hassan Olanrewaju, a banker, however, asked for an adjournment due to the need to call additional witnesses on the matter. Counsels to the first, second and third defendants, Olalekan Yusuf and Bisi Atolagbe respectively, did not object to the application for an adjournment by the claimants’ counsel. Akinlaja explained that the court had slated two days for the hearing, but the claimants decided to call more witnesses, adding that “as it is now, the case has been

adjourned till Oct. 15 for continuation of hearing, because we had some exigencies, that is, we need to call additional witnesses on the matter.” The claimants, Ishola Olagunju, Aliu Usman and Abraham Olagunju were suing on behalf of 53 other staff of Firmus Integrated Resources for N86.9 million as their unpaid emoluments and salaries from 2015 to October 2018. The defendants, Dr. Abdulwahab Ibrahim, Oluwafadekemi Ajao, and Mudasiru Akintola, were carrying on business under the name of Firmus Integrated Resources and acting as cronies for the Kwara state Internal Revenue Service. However, the agreement between the company and state government was terminated in 2009 while a new name and style of Firmus System International Company took up the revenue business on behalf of the state government. Akinlaja said the claimants were inherited as staff of the company with the letter of appointment issued to them by the company in 2009, declaring that all efforts to get the company to pay the entitlements and

salaries were spurned by the defendants. According to the claimants, information available to them indicates that the defendants were acting in concert with some unknown cronies in collaboration with the state government and the Kwara state Internal Revenue Service. The demands of the claimants include an order commanding the defendants to pay the salaries and entitlements due to them from November 1, 2018 till the expiry of their employment in December 2019 or till lawful termination of the claimants’ employment. Also, the claimants are demanding 10 per cent interest per annum on the judgment sum from the date of judgment until it is fully liquidated. Their demands include an order commanding the defendants to issue a letter of official disengagement or approved retirement letter from the firm (Firmus Integrated Resources) to each of the 56 claimants. It also added that the letter must be at the time of lawful termination of their employments or at the expiry of their terms in December 2019 to enable the claimants access their pension remittances.

Short News Oyetola promises to settle backlog of salaries in Osun Olaniyi Ajibola, Osogbo

Governor of Osun state, Gboyega Oyetola has assured that the backlog of salaries of civil servants in the state would be cleared without delay and hasreiterated the resolve of his government to sustain prompt and full payment of salaries to workers. It would be recalled that former Governor Rauf Aregbesola during his second term in office came up with the modulated salary scheme in which workers from grade level eight upward received a certain percentage of their salaries and as a result leaving huge arrears yet to be settled. The governor, who was hosted by civil servants in the state over his victory at the Supreme Court, described the 8-month long litigation as tough and a big distraction. “I will not only sustain the payment of your full salary, but by the grace of God, I’ll pay your arrears. I will prioritise your welfare as I have no reason not to hit the ground running; we will deliver on our promises. “The journey was tough and full of distractions. It was a difficult period for planning. Anytime you made a move to plan, you remember that it is only if all things are equal. You did not know how long you could plan. ”Now that the battle is over, I call on everybody, including our opponents to support us to move the state forward because I believe in participatory government,” the governor resorted. He however urged the civil servants to believe in the administration, be dedicated and display utmost commitment to their duties, saying they are the machinery through which dividends of democracy would be delivered to the people through their efficiency and effectiveness.

Communities hail NDDC for road projects in A’Ibom Amaka Agbu, Port Harcourt

Impressed by the newly constructed roads in different parts of Akwa Ibom state by the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), residents of many communities and motorists in the state have expressed joy and satisfaction over the development. Speaking to newsmen in Uyo, a community leader in Ekamba Nsukara, Dr. Felicia Beulah, said that the NDDC came as a saviour to reconstruct the failed sections of the Apostolic Church Road, thereby, rescuing the people from many years of pains and discomfort caused by the deplorable state of the road. She said: “Before the NDDC intervened, the roads in our community were quite bad and we were basically using only a narrow pathway as the main road was virtually impassable. The NDDC made a very significant improvement on the road and today, we can drive in with our cars.” Another resident, Ifiok Udoh, said that before now the road was in a very deplorable condition, adding that “it was an eyesore; we thank God and the NDDC for coming to our rescue. We are now enjoying the road.” The Project Manager, Modestus Aruma, said that the road has impacted positively on the socio-economic lives of the residents of the area and stated that the internal roads have improved the living conditions of the people and made access in and out of the community convenient. Speaking at the site of another project at the main entrance to the permanent site of the University of Uyo, a student leader, Monday John, applauded the NDDC, for completing the construction of the dual carriageway and installing street lights at the entrance into the main campus of the university. He said: “We are grateful to the NDDC for building this beautiful road and complementing it with a solar-powered street light which has changed the outlook of the university at night and enhanced security on our campus.”

Ex-NDDC official demands review of NDDC’s Act A former commissioner of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), representing Cross River state, Sylvester Nsa has called on the federal government to review the NDDC Act to accommodate his home state. Nsa made the call in a statement made available to newsmen in Calabar on Tuesday. He said that the review would accommodate Cross River state in the NDDC Act following the loss of Bakassi and its oil wells. The ex-commissioner said that in spite of the inadequacies of the NDDC Act that inhibited Cross River state in its sharing formula, the NDDC in the state under his leadership was able to attract 61 projects which had been executed. He said that 34 projects are currently ongoing at various locations across the

state, adding that a breakdown of the projects by the NDDC in the state showed that 20 emergency repaired roads had been inaugurated while 41 were waiting to be inaugurated by the NDDC. According to him, contractors have been mobilised to site for the construction of six bridges and roads at various locations while four contractors have yet to be mobilised to site. He said out of a total of 119 projects approved by the board of the NDDC for the state, 61 have been completed, 34 are ongoing and 20 already inaugurated in the last four years. Nsa was reacting to a statement issued by the Governor of Cross River state, Prof. Ben Ayade, when the acting Managing Director of NDDC, Prof. Nelson Brambaifa, paid him

a courtesy visit. He said the governor was right because the current master plan of the commission pays more emphasis on oil-producing states of which Cross River has been deleted. He said the state has been placed at a disadvantaged position due to the loss of its oil wells, saying that “I share the concern of other stakeholders and that of the governor of Cross River for an urgent review of the Act to allow Cross River state benefit equally in terms of projects allocation and 13 per cent derivation across board. “We lost Bakassi and 76 oil wells due to no fault of ours. It was a decision taken by the International Court of Justice at The Hague and the federal government. Rather than compensating the state for the loss, we are being punished through the Act.’’

A member of the House of Representatives, Rep. Wumi Ogunlola, representing Ekiti West Central Federal Constituency has decried the low level of women representation in the National Assembly. Rep. Oguntola revealed that there are only 10 female members of the House of Representatives out of the 360 members, lamenting that there are not more than six female senators out of 109 senators. She urged women to always come out to fill both executive and legislative positions, saying that “I expect my sisters to come out and aspire to positions of authority as a lawyer and a democrat. I know that it is our legitimate right to seek this; we have every right like our male counterparts to become legislators, governor and even presidents. “Although, this goes beyond just seeking positions, you must also make yourself relevant. People will rate you according to your activities and usefulness in the society and the will also determines the assignment that will be entrusted into your hands.” The female lawmaker made this revelation during a thanksgiving service in her honour at the Emmanuel Anglican Church, Ijero Ekiti. The event was attended by top government functionaries, including the First Lady of Ekiti state, Erelu Bisi Fayemi, the former Deputy Governor of Ekiti state, Prof. Modupe Adelabu, prominent traditional rulers and some members of the National Assembly Bishop of Ekiti Diocese, V. A. Adepoju during his sermon charged those in government to have the fear of God by keeping faith with the pact they have with the electorate. According to the cleric, the mandate given to political leaders is to protect the interest of the people, asserting that they can only succeed if they keep faith with this assignment. He said that “I know that the government cannot meet all the demands of the electorate, however, it must be seen that you have done your best as faithful servants.

W’Africans constitute 31.5m global Short News Oyetola charges corps members to see refugees - ECOWAS Parliament dignity in labour Tunde Opalana, Abuja

Over two million displaced Nigerians and nationals of some other West African countries presently constitute 40 percent of about 70 million refugees in the world. Secretary General of the Economic Community of West Africa (ECOWAS) Parliament, John Azumah, who made this disclosure in Abuja, said humanitarian crises in sub -Sahara African are caused by communal strife, insurgent activities and banditry. Azumah, who spoke at the National Assembly during the official inauguration of the West African Parliamentary Press Corps and Senate Press Corps Day, said it is regrettable that despite the efforts being made in West Africa, the region is plagued with multiple crises. In a keynote address delivered on his behalf by the Director of

Parliamentary Affairs and Research of the ECOWAS Parliament, Bertin Some, Azumah said in Nigeria alone, 2.1 million people have been displaced by the Boko Haram insurgency He said that “for instance, Nigeria’s North -East , North - West and North - Central are ravaged by Boko Haram terrorism and farmer-herder clashes which has resulted in the killing of over 20, 000 people and with about 2.1 million people displaced . “This carnage has caused huge humanitarian crisis, such that there appear to be lethargy of addressing the crises with funds by the international agencies. In Mali, insurgency has run down the country and displaced many. These crises are replicated in many parts of the region. “According to the United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR), West Africa is one of the regions of the world with the highest number of refugees and internally displaced persons estimated to

constitute about 40 per cent of the 70 million refugees and displaced persons in the world.” Azumah blamed the sorry state of the region on bad governance which according to him has rendered many affected countries financially impotent to the point of depending on funds from donor agencies to implement their yearly budget. “The political crises that trigger these humanitarian situations in the region are products of bad and unimaginative governance which has plunged a great number of our citizens into poverty and untold hardship. “The poverty level is so high in the region such that many member states largely depend on donor agencies and international humanitarian agencies to fund their activities and programmes because their streams of revenues can no longer fund the national budgets,” he lamented.

Olaniyi Ajibola, Osogbo

Osun state Governor, Gboyega Oyetola has implored corps members posted to the state for the mandatory 12-month national service to never cut corners by taking the back door to success, urging them to place premium on the dignity of labour. Oyetola enjoined them to follow the honourable path that would make them worthy ambassadors of the nation and responsible citizens as well. The governor, who was represented by his Chief of Staff, Dr. Charles Akinola, said this at the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) Permanent Camp, Ede, during the end of the three-week orientation programme for the 2019 batch ‘B’ stream 1 corps members. He advised them to get prepare for the future through productive engagements that are of immense value to their families and the nation at large, adding that “as you begin another journey of life, always thrive to contribute your quota meaningfully to the growth and stability of our nation and build a worthy future for yourself, and the coming generation. “As you all know that our country is presently facing serious security challenges that require concerted efforts to solve, you must always work towards peace and harmonious co-existence among the diverse people of Nigeria. “Also, you must hold your host communities in high esteem and treat them with utmost respect for you to learn their culture and tradition as a way of fostering national cohesion.” Earlier in his remarks, the NYSC state Coordinator, Adegoke Ayodele disclosed that 2, 401 corps members were deployed to the state out of which 70 per cent of them have been posted to various educational institutions to impact knowledge. He therefore, charged the corps members to take skills acquisition and entrepreneurship development programme serious, adding that the programme is aimed at building the capacity of corps members and instilling an array of skills in them to be able to cope with unemployment in Nigeria.

Ekiti court remands man in prison for raping daughter Gbenga Sodeinde, Ado-Ekiti A High Court sitting in Ado Ekiti on Tuesday ordered the detention of a man, Basiru Adeyanju in prison custody for allegedly raping his 17year -old daughter. Adeyanju, who lives at No 30, Irona Quarters, Ado Ekiti, the state capital allegedly, defiled his daughter on September 10, 2017. The offence is contrary to Section 358 of the Criminal Code of Ekiti state, 2012. Adeyanju was slammed with a twocount charge bordering on rape and attempted rape. The accused person however, pleaded not guilty to the charges preferred against him. Ekiti state Commissioner for Justice and Attorney General,

Olawale Fapohunda, led the state government’s legal team while Adeyinka Opaleke appeared for the defendant. Having called a witness at the initial stage, Fapohunda prayed the court for a relief to call two other witnesses which was granted. During cross -examination, a witness, Chief Kola Jegede, who is a herbalist was asked to recount his contact with the accused. Jegede admitted that he knew Adeyanju few years ago when he came to his house at Falegan in company of his brother for prayers. According to Jegede, it was the following year that police brought the defendant and others to his house after he confessed to the police that what he took after raping his daughter was brought to him for ritual.

Fapohunda also called a medical practitioner, Dr. Olasende Temitope, who testified that the victim was raped. The medical doctor informed the court that the victim was brought to him after defilement on September 11, 2017 and the medical history and investigation showed that she had been with her father for two years after her parents got separated. He further told the court that the medical report revealed that the victim’s private part was bruised, but that she was HIV negative. At this point, the attorney -general tendered a copy of the medical report on the victim which was admitted as exhibit. Having listened to the argument of the parties, the presiding judge, Justice M.O. Abodunde adjourned the matter to October 2 for further hearing.

Oil and gas workers have identified obsolete refineries and pricing uncertainties as some of the areas that the new Group Managing Director, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Mele Kyari, must tackle. The Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN) disclosed this in a statement in Lagos, asserting that Kyari must also tackle pipeline vandalism. PENGASSAN General Secretary, Lumumba Okugbawa, who signed the statement, noted that the Kyari’s appointment by President Muhammadu Buhari which takes effect from July 8 is based on his wealth of experience in the oil and gas industry and well deserved. He however, said that Kyari must endeavour to solve the challenges of pipeline vandalism, crude oil theft, inadequate infrastructure, pricing uncertainties, obsolete refineries and fuel subsidy issues. “The resting of the Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB) is also among issues the Nigerian masses expect the new NNPC board to champion in order to further bolster the economy,” he said. The union scribe said that Kyari, a geologist until his appointment was group general manager, crude oil marketing division of the NNPC, maintaining that“he also doubled, since May 13, 2018, as Nigeria’s representative to the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC). “We welcome his appointment. Kyari as a quintessential crude oil marketer with prerequisite certification and outfield pedigree in petroleum economics, and crude oil and gas trading, coupled with his knowledge, wisdom, steadfastness, and purposefulness to the corporation, the oil and gas industry and the nation as a whole, is being rewarded by the new appointment.” He added that the appointment came as a testament to hard work, the association having watched the steady and impactful progress made by the new chief executive over the years.

Reinstated Ekiti council chairmen shun resumption

Five days after the Ekiti state House of Assembly announced the reinstatement of eight out of the 16 local government council chairmen that were suspended, the reinstated officials are yet to resume their offices investigation shows. The local government chairmen were elected for two years during the last administration, but were later suspended last year by the immediate past assembly in the state over alleged misappropriation of funds. However, based on a petition by the chairmen the current legislature led by Speaker Funminiyi Afuye ordered the reinstatement of the eight chairmen, while others were recommended for prosecution by the state attorney -general. A visit to some of the council secretariats by NAN revealed that none of chairmen was in office. Some of the affected chairmen contacted indicated that they were still waiting for directive from Governor Kayode Fayemi while one said she was currently out of the country. However, the coordinating directors in charge of the councils were seen on duty against the pronouncement of the House which was announced on July 4. The reinstated chairmen are those of Ijero, Moba, Gbonyin, Ado, Irepodun/Ifelodun, Ikole, Ekiti South/West and Ekiti West while the remaining eight remain suspended. They are the chairmen of Oye, Ise/Orun, Ekiti South East, Ikere, Efon, Ido/Osi, Emure and Ilejemeje councils.

N20.1m fraud: Witness indicts Ex-NBA Chairman, Ogunlana Andrew Orolua, Abuja The Provost of the Nigerian Bar Association, NBA, Ikeja Branch, Lagos, Olubunmi Odeniyi, on Tuesday, July 9, 2019, told Justice Mojisola Dada of the Special Offences Court sitting in Ikeja, Lagos, how insurance premium funds paid by members of the association were not remitted to any insurance company during the administrations of two former chairmen of the association, Adesina Ogunlana and Yinka Farounbi. Both Ogunlana and Farounbi were arraigned alongside Kappo Aderinola, a former Treasurer of the NBA, Ikeja branch, on Wednesday, May 22, 2019, on a 30-count charge bordering on conspiracy to commit felony, money laundering and stealing to the tune of N20, 100, 000.00 (Twenty million, One Hundred Thousand Naira), property of the NBA. The second and third defendants, Farounbi and Aderinola, who were signatories to the accounts of the NBA, Ikeja branch, allegedly signed some cheques at different times without appropriate authorisation. They also allegedly gave the cheques to the first defendant, Ogunlana, to cash fraudulently. At the resumed hearing on Tuesday, Odeniyi told the court that his investigations revealed that premiums paid by members of the association were not remitted to any insurance company, contrary to the claims by the defendants. In his further testimony, Odeniyi, who is the second prosecution witness, PW2, told the court that he commenced investigation into the activities of the defendants and came out with his findings, after he was briefed by a member who alleged that the Association had not paid him any entitlement from the insurance policy. Led in evidence by the prosecution counsel, Samuel Daji, the PW2 also told the court that he found out abnormalities in the insurance premium funds during the regimes of the defendants. Odeniyi, under cross-examination by the defence, told the court that his investigation was

Outgoing Chief Judge of Federal High Court, Justice Abdul Kafarati has inaugurated FHC’s Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) centre at Osun crescent Maitama district of Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory. Speaking at the inauguration, Justice Kafarati said that the decision to establish an ADR was taken by him to reduce the number of cases going to the regular court .He said that already the court are over crowded with large number of pending cases including those that can be easily resolved through ADR. Justice Kafarati has also unveiled a new Federal High Court Civil Procedure Rules 2019. He said the new rules would enhance speedy and efficient administration of justice. “When I became the Chief Judge of the the Federal High Court, I made up my mind that I

Odeniyi also admitted that he was not aware that the first defendant signed some cheques after expiration of his tenure in office as the chairman. In her evidence, a third prosecution witness, Caroline Iwayoyanfe, told the court that she got a call from an officer of the EFCC sometime in March 2019, informing her of a petition written to the Commission by NBA, Ikeja members against the defendants and that she would need to “throw light in respect of the petition.” Iwayoyanfe, who is a former Vice Chairman and member of the Association, further told the court that: “I was invited by the EFCC to talk and write statement regarding authorisation of some financial transactions and signing of cheques by the defendants.

“I went to the EFCC office and wrote a statement, informing the Commission that I know nothing about any authorisation of any transaction or signing of cheques carried out by the defendants.” Giving further evidence, she said between 2016 and 2018 when she served as Vice Chairman, the executives (defendants) rarely held meetings and that when Exco meetings were held, there was never a time where the defendants authorised the signing of any cheques or discussed such issues. During cross examination, she admitted that she was not aware of any payment to the first defendant’s account. “The expenses of the Association were silently done by the second defendants,” she added. Justice Dada adjourned the case till July 10, 2019 for continuation of trial.

will do all I can to leave a lasting legacy in the history of this great court. “I constituted a committee made up of judges and some staff of the court to review the Federal High Court civil procedure rules 2009. “The new Civil Procedure Rules 2019 has now been gazetted, and ready for unveiling. The new rules has introduced a lot of innovations to enhance speedy dispensation of justice”, the outgoing CJ said. A Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Chief Joe-Kyari Gadzama who spoke at the inauguration of the ADR centre advised the incoming Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, to develop and sustain the Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) centre of the court. He noted that ADR had become a potent tool of decongesting the courts, due to the frustration occasioned by endless litigation. “Alternative Dispute Resolution has come to stay, because of the enormous delays in our court

system. ADR and mediation is the way to go. “And I believe the incoming Chief Judge of the Federal High Court will continue to develop and enhance the ADR centre that has been commissioned today (Friday). “We are aware that any moment from now, the outgoing Chief Judge of the FHC will be taking a bow, and that presupposes that somebody will be coming. We believe that it is going to be an effortless, seamless and straightforward process,” Gadzama noted. It would be recalled that the Federal Judicial Service Commission (FJSC), had last month nominated Justice John Tsoho, the next most senior judge of the Federal High Court, to the National Judicial Council (NJC), to succeed Justice Kafarati who will be retiring this month from the bench. The SAN lauded Justice Kafarati for his innovative leadership of the court, saying, “the outgoing CJ has written his name in gold.”

quizzed and granted bail. The guns were said to have been officially assigned to the policemen for duty patrol as personnel of the state-own security outfit codenamed “Operation Wabaizigan” but failed to return to base and return the guns to the armoury. According to sources, the two junior officers gave their guns to Sergeant Emmanuel who was said to have checked into a guest house at Uwasota area in Egor Local Government Area. It was further learnt that Sergeant Emmanuel was with a female friend inside the hotel when at about 2 am he raised an alarm

that two of the three rifles he took into his room had been stolen while he was inside the toilet. But the owner of the guest house, Mr. Obodo Otuya, who called for full investigation into the incident told journalists that claims by Sgt. Emmanuel were questionable. He said reports from his staff showed that Sgt. Emmanuel checked in with one AK-47 rifle and a lady. Spokesman for the Edo State Police Command, DSP Chidi Nwabuzor, confirmed the incident and said investigation was still ongoing.

A cross section of Abuja residents have hailed the FCT Police Command for charging Senator Elisha Abbo for assault before the Magistrate Court in Zuba Abuja after he beat up a woman at a sex toy shop in Abuja. They see the police action as proper and inline with its constitutional duty to protect the rights of every citizen and prevent the abuses and breaches of citizens fundamental rights. Abdullahi Hussein a civil servant told the Daily Times that unless the police perform it duties, no matter how highly placed the alleged offenders are, ugly incidences of impunity in our society will continue to reign. Hussein said he was disappointed and amazed when he watched the video camera clips of the assault on a woman at a sex toy shop in Abuja by Sen.Abbo in the presence of his police escort who could not prevent the assault but instead arrested the victim. He said that the action of the police escort should also be condemned because he was attached to the Senator not only to protect him but to prevent him from committing crime. Joseph Okon , Dele Ania and Emmanuel Adamu all students supported Hussein argument during a forum organized by Nongovernmental organization in Abuja on Monday. They noted that police escort in this country wrongly paid blind loyalty to their immediate masters to the detriment of the citizens and tax payers who fund the police. Meanwhile, Senator Abbo who has been charged with one count charge of assault despite his apology. He has also secured the N5m bail and two sureties granted by the Magistrate Court in Zuba Martin Ojie an Abuja legal practitioner said that while he commended the Inspector General of Police, IGP Mohammed Adamu for his prompt directive to the Commissioner of Police in charge of FCT, Bala Ciroma to investigate the matter, he would appeal to the civil society organisations to ensure that the matter is not abandoned in Court. “They have a duty in matters of this nature to ensure that justice is done.” Ojie said adding that the charge may have been filed because of the public outcry over the incident. The case has been adjourned to July 22, for hearing.

Internet advertising to account for over 50% of global adspend by 2021 Godwin Anyebe Internet advertising is set to exceed half of global adspend by 2021, although as the internet ad market matures, growth is projected to slow from 17 per cent to 9 per cent a year. This is according to the Zenith’s Advertising Expenditure Forecasts a report published recently. The figure is up from 47 per cent that internet advertising will account for this year, and 44 per cent in 2018. However, the growth rate is falling rapidly as the internet ad market matures. Internet ad spend grew 17 per cent in 2018, but activity in the first half of 2019 leads us to expect only 12 per cent growth for the year as a whole. By 2021 we expect internet ad spend growth to have fallen to 9 per cent year on year. The growth rate of the internet ad market is starting to converge with the growth rate of the market as a whole. The report disclosed that, internet ad spend growth is led by the overlapping channels of online video and social media, which are expected to grow at average rates of 18 per cent and 17 per cent a year, respectively, to 2021. These channels are benefitting from continued technological improvements to Smartphone technology, connection speeds, and advertising targeting and delivery, combined with strong growth in investment in content. 5G technology, which launched in South Korea and the US in April and is starting to roll out elsewhere, will further improve brand experiences on these channels by making mobile connections much faster and more responsive. Other channels are growing much less rapidly. Paid search, which accounted for 37 per cent of internet ad spend in 2018, grew by 11 per cent that year, and we forecast its growth rate to fall to 7 per cent in 2021. A lot of innovation in search is taking place in voice, which is currently not monetised. Online classified advertising (ads sitting alongside other ads rather than content, such as jobs, property and second-hand vehicle listings) is starting to lose out to other digital channels, or free alternatives. Online classified advertising grew 9 per cent globally in 2018 but is already starting to shrink in some markets, and in 2021 we expect spending to decline by 1.6 per cent globally. Much of the growth in internet ad spend is coming from small, local businesses that spend all their budgets on platforms like Google and Facebook, which offer simple, self-serve tools to manage campaigns, and highly targeted audiences. The fact that large numbers of small advertisers are spending all their budgets online means they are skewing the overall picture. The global average is made up of very many small advertisers that spend all their budgets online, and large advertisers that – on average – devote considerably less than half their budgets to it. Big brands are investing large sums in internet advertising, but the majority is still spending most of their budget on traditional media. “The categories that have advanced the furthest in using modern digital channels are technology, media, finance and professional services,” said Matt James, Zenith’s global brand president. “And even within these, brands still rely on traditional media to create broad mass awareness and reinforce brand values.”

Customs rakes N203.2bn revenue through Apapa port in 6 months Records exported goods worth N14.2bn in H1 2019 Motolani Oseni The Nigeria Customs Service (Apapa), has said that it recorded $46.6 million as a Free On Board (FOB) value for exported goods and generated N203.2 billion as revenue in the last 6months. The exported goods were put at a total of 95,229 metric tonnes valued at N14.2 billion through the Apapa Port, in the first half of 2019, with most of the exports being agricultural and mineral products. The Area Controller of Apapa Command, Comptroller Muhammad Abba-Kura, disclosed this on Tuesday in Apapa when he inspected some intercepted goods in one of

the terminals in Lagos. According to Abba-Kura, the command recorded a total of 95, 229.15 metric tons of exported goods within the period under review. The comptroller said that most of the exported products were agricultural products. He said that the N203.2 billion generated was N26.5 billion higher than the N176. 7billion generated in the corresponding period of 2018. He added that the figure represented 54.5 per cent of the annual revenue target of the command. Abba-Kura said the items seized included

tomato paste, vegetable oil, ladies wears, Tramadol, and other drugs, armoured glasses without end-user certificate and drilling pipes labelled in a foreign language. He said that two of 40ft containers of 25kg foreign parboiled rice from Thailand were also among the items intercepted and a container of drugs, including Tramadol, which was falsely declared. Abba-Kura explained that the parboiled rice was declared as processed furniture while the Tramadol was declared as a medicament. He attributed the revenue success of the command to strict adherence to professionalism through sensitization of officers to their responsibilities.

“Periodic stakeholders’ meetings, opendoor policy, prompt resolution of disputes by the Dispute Resolution Committee as well as maintaining the right synergy and collaboration with other sister agencies also contributed to the command increased revenue. “We will continue to build on existing strategies put in place by my predecessor, Comptroller Bashir Abubakar,” Abba-Kura said. He urged stakeholders to genuinely declare their goods, adding that they could visit his office or any other officer in the command during working hours for further clarifications

Huge RoW charges, multiple taxations discourage investments - NCC Ladesope Ladelokun The Nigerian Communications Commission has harped on the need for government at all levels to shun imposition of multiple taxes and huge Right of Way (RoW) charges to encourage Foreign Direct Investments (FDIs) and local investments. The Executive Commissioner, Stakeholders Management of the NCC, Mr Sunday Dare, made this call during the North East Stakeholders’ Parliament

Meeting with Relevant Agencies in Yola, Adamawa State during the weekend. Dare said it was worrying that stakeholders still talk about protecting telecoms infrastructure by government agencies, or from multiple taxation and regulation when government at all levels should be providing an enabling environment for the development of infrastructure by providing necessary incentives to operators. Represented at the event by Head, Compliance and Monitoring of the NCC, Alkasim Umar, Dare says despite

the fact that the imposition of heavy taxes on telecoms infrastructure, huge RoW charges funnel huge revenues to the coffers of the state, they discourage investments, deny government of long-term revenues and destroy the foundation for future growth. He said there was a need for all hands to be on deck to come up with solutions that enable operators to roll out fast and efficient networks that provide opportunities for economic development, adding that improvement in broadband penetration has a

significant effect on national Gross Domestic Product. Meanwhile, the Association of Telecommunications Companies of Nigeria (ATCON) and the Association of Licensed Telecommunications Operators of Nigeria(ALTON) had at a recently held stakeholders’ forum, called for a downward review of the 2.5 per cent Annual Operating Levy(AOL) charged by the Federal Government through the NCC, adding that there was a need to have to have an Executive Order to check incessant taxes imposed on operators.

NACCIMA, CBN partner on improving agriculture value chain Joy Obakeye The Nigerian Association of Chambers of Commerce Industry Mines and Agriculture (NACCIMA) is strategically working with the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to ensure that the agriculture value chain in the country benefit adequately from the recently announced N500 billion agricultural fund earmarked for the sector. According to the Director-General of NACCIMA, Ambassador Ayoola Olukanni, NACCIMA’s involvement

was to make sure that those involved in agricultural produce for export are captured in the funds’ accessibility. “Recently, the CBN Governor unveiled a new roadmap for economic growth and development and I am happy to say that NACCIMA as the voice of Nigeria business has been invited to be part of the funds which have been announced as being earmarked for a few areas of exportable. “With N500billion set aside by CBN, we want to strategically work with the CBN to see that Agriculture value chain in the country, and our Chamber members

especially those on the Agriculture sector tap into the new programme to boost the food basket of the country. “We have been pushing for our members to be more engaged with various initiatives and incentives that have been announced by the government. This is part of the things we are doing to expand the capacity of Agric value chain programmes and projects.” The NACCIMA boss said the body has embarked on sensitisation of its members to enable them to access various funding programs of the government that are

available; stressing that the smallholder farmers and medium-scale farmers were targeted. Commenting on the African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA), he said that AfCFTA will help reposition the competitiveness of locally manufactured goods, adding that Nigeria is a major player in Africa and cannot afford to miss out. Olukanni noted that it will further help in putting the government on its toes, explaining that the trade agreement will lead to the country closing the infrastructural gap that has been existing for decades.

New Payment platform’ Hollaport’ berth Mutiat Alli Group Executive Director of Bua Group, Kabiru Rabiu, has unveiled a completely made in Nigeria app tagged ‘Hollaport, payment and messaging mobile application for the convenience of Nigerians. Speaking on at launch, Kabiru disclosed that the innovation of the app started about 2 years ago and was borne of the need to ease the transaction and increase financial inclusion in Nigeria. He went on to explain that Hollaport will evolve into

an expanded platform with added features that will make it exciting and extremely convenient to transfer money and make payments not only in Nigeria but throughout the African continent. Hollaport is a multi-layered messaging and financial technology platform on which people can send and receive money using their phone contacts. Other features on the App include airtime top-up; cable, electricity and data subscription; and pay code – a technology that enables recipient withdraws cash from an ATM without the need to have a card or bank account. Financial Inclusion is a major issue in Nigeria,

with over half of the adult population being unbanked and only a fraction of the banked using technology in their processes. Seeing this disconnect, Hollaport Technologies aims to reduce the learning curve associated with mobile applications and has taken time to develop a lifestyle tool that can fit in all areas of life, while maintaining ease-of-use. “The question has never been one of when, but of how-- and this is the gap we intend to fill in the Nigerian market” said Micheal Olowojesiku, Hollaport’s General Manager.

is packed with features such as media functionalities where you can send photos, videos and documents.

Over 85 per cent of Nigerian adults own a mobile device; 103 million have an active internet subscriptions and a large percentage of this data size have a presence on social media. Hollaport aggregates instant messaging features with financial technology to ensure the app is as relevant as it is functional.

Fitch Rating has disclosed that, exception of Access Bank Plc, other largest Bank in Nigeria have Loanto-Deposit Ratio (LDR) below or close to 60per cent and will be among the most affected by the new requirement. This is coming on the heels of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) directive that required banks to have a LDR of at least 60per cent at end-September 2019. The report by Fitch Rating disclosed that the CBN move will bring a credit-negative for the banking sector, stressing, “We believe it will push some banks to significantly increase lending to riskier borrowers, potentially with looser underwriting or underpricing of risk.” The apex bank announced that the measure will stimulate lending and boost economic growth. Banks failing to meet the requirement will be penalised by having to deposit extra unremunerated cash reserves, equal to 50per cent of their lending shortfall, at the central bank. Fitch rating said, “Due to the new LDR requirement, we have raised our 2019 loan growth forecast to an average of 10per cent for Fitch-rated banks, compared with one per cent growth in 2018. “Achieving the new LDR requirement in such a short timescale will be very difficult for some banks have given their lending levels, particularly if customer deposits continue to grow at present rates. The sector’s overall LDR was 57per cent at endMay, according to CBN data. “This is low relative to many markets, and reflects banks’ concern about the risk to asset quality from Nigeria’s often volatile operating environment. Nigeria’s largest banks, with the exception of Access Bank, have LDRs below or close to 60per cent and will be among the most affected by the new requirement. “It is unlikely that there is sufficient demand from goodquality borrowers for banks to meet the target without relaxing their underwriting or pricing standards. Banks continue to struggle with high impaired and other problem loans, which is partly the cause for muted lending since 2016. “The present operating conditions are not conducive to loan growth, and rapid lending during the fragile economic recovery could increase asset-quality problems in the future. Chasing loan growth could also weaken banks’ profitability if they cut margins to attract customers, and because of the need to set aside expected credit loss provisions under IFRS 9 when loans are originated. “The CBN is incentivising banks to focus on SME, retail, mortgage and consumer lending in particular, by assigning a weight of 150per cent to these segments when computing banks’ LDRs for the 60per cent target. The SME and retail segments tend to be riskier for banks, and Nigeria’s mortgage market is in its infancy”, the report stated.

INEC to deregister non performing political parties at ‘appropriate time’ Stories by Patrick Okohue The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has said that political parties which does not meet constitutional requirement before their registration would be deregistered at the appropriate time before the commencement of electioneering for the 2023 general election. About 91 political parties are officially registered in Nigeria; however, most of the parties lack national spread and capacity to win elective positions in the country. In most cases, these parties are often used as a bargaining tool for political patronage by their founders. But with the conclusion of the 2019 general election, there have been increased agitation by political stakeholders for INEC to reduce the number of parties, these according to them was part of the reforms needed to sanitise the electoral system ahead of the 2023 general election. But Festus Okoye, INEC National Commissioner and Chairman, Information and Voters Education Committee, in an interview in Lagos, Tuesday, said that the parties where aware of the constitutional requirement they must meet not to be delisted. According to him, “We have power to deregister political party, at the appropriate time the commission would look at the number of political parties that we have and see which one are in violation of the provisions of their registration and in good standing. “The moment we see any one that is in violation of the guide lines the commission would use it constitutional power to do the needful, “Okoye said. Okoye, however, denied insinuations that the commission lacks the constitutional

Mahmoud power to deregister non performing parties in the country, stressing that the commission would soon carry out a review to check which of them violated these provision. “We have never said we don’t have power to delist political parties which are not performing; section 225A of the constitution gives INEC the power to delist parties which does not meet the constitutional requirement which they were registered. “The parties know this conditions and the moment you fail any of this conditions you will be deregistered. “If you don’t have five per cent in the presidential election you can be deregistered, if you don’t win certain number of seats in the National Assembly you can be delisted,” Okoye added.

Igbo Presidency in 2023 not a right, says APC National Organising Secretary The National Organising Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Hon. Emma Ibediro has said that getting an Igbo President in 2023 is not a right. According to him, aspiration must involve every part of the country. Ibediro said that the Igbo nation must be ready to work within the ruling party or any other platform they intend to use to actualise their dream of ruling Nigeria. “In 2015, only 198,000 votes came in from the entire South-East. In 2019, we had a little above 400,000,” he told a national newspaper. “Some people will say that it is an improvement. What type of improvement is that? “You can imagine Anambra State, for example, bringing in less than 50,000 votes when our members in that state are over 200,000. What it means is that even APC members did not vote for our President. “Igbo presidency is not a right, just like Hausa presidency is not a right and Yoruba presidency is not a right.

“Igbo presidency can only become possible if you work within the party and convince the rest of Nigerians to produce a Nigerian President of Igbo extraction. “For instance, in the APC, you have to work within the party and with every other member of the party, either from North-west, North-east or from Northcentral or the South-west and then we must come to the conclusion that as an individual, you can have the confidence of Nigerians to become their president. “The fact that you are from South-east or from any other area is neither here or there. So, if the people from the Southeast are aspiring to become Nigeria’s president, I think the first thing to do is to work within the party and then get the rest of Nigerians to accept them for that position. So, I believe that it is not a right. That is what I would say. “I don’t want to be emphatic that there must be an Igbo President because this party is not built on the platform of dictating to the people what they want.”

Ex-Senator cautions against division in Ondo APC The Chairman of Elders Forum in the Ondo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Nimbe Farukanmi, has cautioned gladiators within the APC against further polarisation of the fold. The elder statesman warned that the consequences of a divided APC in the State would not benefit any individual or group, who professes to love the party. The former federal lawmaker said, “I want to make a personal appeal to all stakeholders in the party to team up and promote peace. APC in Ondo State should not be allowed nor encouraged to be divided.” He said it would be a great sacrifice for aggrieved individuals and groups to sheath their sword and embrace peace in the interest of overall wellbeing of the party. According to a release signed by the State Publicity Secretary, Mr.Alex Kalejaye, the party elder spoke when he received the State Chairman, Engr. Ade Adetimehin, who was on a courtesy visit, the respected elder emphasised unity as a desirable strength. “We should encourage unity

Sen Nimbe Farukanmi so that we can be together; our strength lies in unity, and working towards the same goal”, he further explained. Farukanmi commended the State Chairman, and the State Working Committee for going round the state to effect reconciliation, even at the grassroots, describing it as a worthy effort. “It is a good thing that you are going round the state and reconciling aggrieved members

of the party. I will only advise that you make sure the move is genuine and total,” he said. Earlier, the State Chairman, Engr. Ade Adetimehin, had described the former Senator as a political role model. Adetimehin said, “Baba Farukanmi has made his mark in the political scene, both in Ondo State and in Nigeria as a whole. Baba should be looked up to for advice, good conducts and behaviour.”

Thursday sanitation: CDHR urges Sanwo-Olu to address indiscriminate sealing of shops by councils’ officials The Committee for the Defence of Human Rights (CDHR), Lagos State Chapter has urged the state governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu to address the indiscriminate locking of shops and seizure of goods at markets by local government officials in the state over alleged non-compliance with Thursday Environmental sanitation. The Chairman of CDHR, Mr Alex Omotehinse made the plea in a statement on Tuesday in Lagos. Omotehinse spoke against the backdrop of alleged locking of shops at Kosofe Local Government Area on July 4 by some officials of the Ikosi-Isheri Local Council Development Area (LCDA). He said: “Please, we need proper clarifications and enlightenment on the Thursdays’ Environmental Sanitation. “It is high time the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Justice did a proper clarification on the position of law on this issue that was initially strictly for markets in Lagos State. “For some years now, Thursdays’ environmental sanitation has been an issue leading to one thing or the

other. “Those that are saddled with the responsibility of ensuring compliance have been using the law to extort and exploit the innocent shop owners at inner streets of various communities. “It is a recurrent decimal which should not be allowed to continue. Many market men and women are complaining of illegal sealing off of shops and extortions over Thursdays’ sanitation exercise.” According to him, on July 4, at about 8:00 a.m., the health officers at Maiden Health Centre under the Ikosi-Isheri LCDA also allegedly invaded the meeting venue of CDHR Mile 12 Unit in a shop. “The official went to the meeting office at 619, opposite the Mobil Filling station to lock the shop even when the owner of the shop is yet to arrive,” he said. He, however, alleged that the venue was not dirty but clean. Omotehinse said that when the shop owner arrived and went to the health centre, the government officials were demanding fine, saying so many shop owners had been suffering such treatment. “Now, I want to implore the

Attorney General and the office of the Directorate of Public Prosecution to as a matter of urgency interpret the position of the law on locking of shops or seizure of goods. “Only an order of a court of competent jurisdiction can give order for the locking of shop or seizure of property. “The CDHR, Lagos branch, won’t hesitate to drag the Kosofe Local Government and Lagos State Government to court to seek redress on this matter,” he said. Omotehinse said that the LCDA was not known to law, adding that such act of going into the inner streets to lock people’s shops over Thursdays’ sanitation exercise. “This release deserves an urgent attention to save our society from unscrupulous element hidden under the government agencies to extort innocent Lagosians,” he said. he right activist, who advised local councils to rather intensify efforts at alleviating people’s suffering instead of aggravating their pains, said that Ikosi-Isheri’s residents were expecting to feel impact of the council.

Netherlands seeks collaboration with Nigeria on education A delegation from Nuffic in the Netherlands is seeking collaboration with the Federal Ministry of Education on various fields of education. Mr. David Van Kampa, Team Leader, Partnership and Programme Development, Netherlands, in a meeting with officials of the ministry, said the country was ready to deliver on staff training, curriculum development and others. Nuffic is a Dutch organisation for Netherlands education, which plays an important role in fostering international cooperation in education between the Netherlands and other countries. Van Kampa said the collaboration was necessary for the two countries to share knowledge, and as well foster relationships in the areas of curriculum development, scholarship awards among others. He noted that out of the number of foreigners that visited Netherlands, Nigeria was 75 per cent, which compelled the need for cooperation. “Netherlands has been engaged with Nigeria since 2012 on short courses that spanned three years. “There is a lot of curriculum in English in Netherlands; and we are working to share and shape the knowledge in this regards. “We want to work with Nigeria on training of staff and educational institutions, learn about what is here and solidify our educational cooperation. “We have a lot to offer in terms of expertise, to deliver staff training and also look at the priority need of the ministry and here, we have come to seal that cooperation,” he said. Meanwhile, the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Education, Mr Sonny Echono, who received the delegation, said there was need to share best practices and ideas that could improve and develop the country. Echono noted that Nigeria was in need of the collaboration for massive training of teachers and human development that would in turn be geared toward the advancement of the sector. According to him, we need to take a look at specific areas we can collaborate, open up specific agreement and share practices on how to manage the issues of enrolment. “Nigeria is a fertile ground for education, and we are anxious of development, given the multiple challenges we face. “We need to go back to the drawing table and begin to see how the two countries can sign the revised Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that will facilitate more development in the sector,” he said. Similarly, Mrs Ifeoma Gijina, Director, Education Support Services in the ministry, highlighted the priority areas of the ministry as: exchange of students in long and short-term programme, education management information, exchange visit, and study and lecture tour of universities’ professors. Others are awards of full scholarship to students and graduates, to study in each other’s institutions; and encourage sponsored students to study in each other’s country, among others. Gijina noted that the draft document of MoU between Nigeria and Netherlands had not been signed; saying that signing the document would cement the relationship.

Five states, FCT yet to access Paris club counterpart fund – UBEC Says it has developed new framework to enhance quality in basic education Executive Secretary of Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC), Dr. Hamid Bobboyi, said on Tuesday that Anambra, Edo, Ekiti, Nasarawa, Kano states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) are yet to access the Paris Club counterparts fund in full. Bobboyi made this known when he issued a comprehensive list of states that have so far accessed the Paris Club counterpart fund disbursement to states made available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja. He said that Abia, Akwa-Ibom, Jigawa, Imo, Benue, Borno, Cross-River, Delta, Yobe, Kebbi, Kogi, Ebonyi, Niger, Lagos, Ogun and Plateau states have accessed their funds in full as at July 9, 2019. Other states that had accessed were Bayelsa, Bauchi, Enugu,Kaduna, Katsina, Ondo, Oyo, Rivers, Gombe Sokoto, and Zamfara states. He said that those that were yet to access the fund should come up and follow the required guidelines to be able to access it. He added that for a state to access the current fund, such state must have paid 75 per cent of the previous year’s fund to be qualified in accessing the current fund. However, from the document, Abia State was able to pay N2,330,682,113.57 as matching grant to be able to access the Paris Club fund – while Akwa-Ibom State paid N2,703,556550.86 to access its fund. Also,BauchiStatewasabletopayN2,268, 903,280.76, Bayelsa N4,187,682,198.84, Borno N1,473,832,843.82 and Lagos N1,473,832,845.30, among others. NAN reports that the Permanent

Secretary, Ministry of Education, Mr Sonny Echono at a one-day meeting to strengthen partnership within the three tiers of government on the Sustainable Development Goals 4 (SDGs-4) urged FCT and other states that were yet to access the funds to do so for development of the educational sector. Echono said the Federal Government had addressed the challenges of accessing the Universal Basic Education Fund using the Paris Club loan refund He, therefore, commended states that had accessed the fund while encouraging the remaining states to do the needful by submitting the relevant plans. In another development, the Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC) said it has reviewed minimum standard for basic education and developed new quality assurance framework to improve the quality of basic education in the country. Executive Secretary of the commission, Dr. Hamid Bobboyi, made this known in Kaduna on Monday at the opening of three-day training on the use of the reviewed standards and quality assurance instruments. The training was organised for quality assurance officials of UBEC and State Universal Basic Education Boards in the North-West and North-East. Bobboyi said that UBEC management had approved 2.0 per cent of SUBEB intervention funds for quality assurance in states, to promote effective and efficient monitoring and evaluation in schools. The UBEC boss, who was represented by the Director, Administration and

Supplies, Rev. Edwin Jarumai, noted that the quality of teaching and learning largely determined progress in terms of growth, development and global competitiveness. He said that quality assurance involved all the processes that contribute to the attainment of expected learning outcomes. According to Bobboyi, effective quality assurance system will drive quality basic education. He assured that UBEC will ensure that all prescribed standards are met towards achieving the required quality in the basic education system. “There is growing concern on the issue of quality teaching and learning in basic education. This means that we all have to rise and build a model for educational effectiveness. “The quality assurance departments in UBEC, SUBEB and Local Government Education Authority will be strengthened with adequate manpower and means of mobility to monitor what is happening in schools.” Also speaking, UBEC’s Quality Assurance Director, Malam Mansir Idris, said: “It is pertinent that we recognise the dynamism of quality assurance and understand the need for change if we must succeed. “We must not continue to do the same thing if we are not getting the desired results, we need to be more pro-active and adopt a broad-based remedy to assure quality inputs and outcome in basic education.” Idris said that the training would be conducted in all the remaining zones to bring all quality assurance officers on the same page.

3,800 staff, students covered by NHIS at Unilorin – Mgt No fewer than 3,800 members of staff and students of the University of Ilorin have been covered by the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports. Dr AbdulRasheed Odunola, Director of Health Services, University of Ilorin, made the disclosure at a symposium organised by Offa Students’ Union (OSU), University of Ilorin Chapter, on Tuesday in Ilorin.

Odunola, while commending the Federal Government for the initiative and its commitment to the health of the nation’s workforce, charged state governments to emulate the Federal Government in order to bridge the healthcare service delivery gap. In his remarks, Prof. Bayo Lawal,

a former Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic) at the university, advised students to pay greater attention to their education, maintaining that knowledge acquisition remained the bedrock of success in life. On the state of education in Nigeria, Lawal said that quality education was achievable in the country, especially under the atmosphere of good governance.

Governor Nyesom Ezenwo Wike of Rivers State on Monday inaugurated the Committee for Accreditation and Approval of Private Schools in the state. Speaking during the inauguration at Government House Port Harcourt, the governor charged the members to embark on a comprehensive assessment of schools with the objective of reviving the standard of education. The governor said that the basic education level was important to the development of education. “I plead with you to be committed to delivering on this assignment because it is critical to the development of education in the state. “I respect members of the committee and urge you not to allow anyone to offer bribes to you. How much can they give to you that will convince you to mortgage the future of Rivers children?” he queried. Governor Wike said the State Government was committed to ensuring that private schools were of approved standard, with the right facilities and qualified teachers. He said that in carrying out the assignment, members of the committee should not be swayed by prominent persons, politicians, and their relatives. “There is nothing like party chairman or party secretary in this assignment. In this assignment, you were not appointed by any other person. Therefore, you should be focused on assessing the schools and churning out credible reports,” he said. He said that the State Government selected tested academics to carry out the assignment because it wanted the right outcome. Governor Wike said the administration jettisoned the use of the Ministry of Education because most private schools had contacts at the Ministry, where they compromised the accreditation and approval process. “We want the private schools to be of good standard. The committee should confirm the facilities at the schools and the qualification of the teachers. “The committee must visit all the schools that have applied for accreditation. You have one month to complete this assignment and there will be no extension of time,” he said. The Committee chairman for Accreditation and Approval of Private Schools in Rivers State (Rivers East) Prof. Ozo-Mekuri Ndimele, thanked Governor Wike for setting up the committee to help improve the quality of schools in the state through the right accreditation scheme. He said that the business of private schools had become an all-comer affair with the motive of profit making, while the quality of education suffer. Prof. Ozo-Mekuri said that with 30 per cent of the school enrolments, private schools should be programmed to deliver quality education to the people.

Daily Times Nigeria Friday, June 28, 2019

Mobile internet access slowly restored in Sudan Sudan’s telecom providers began restoring mobile access to the internet weeks after service was cut off following a deadly crackdown on protesters. The country’s ruling Transitional Military Council (TMC) severed internet access after government forces opened fire on demonstrators at a peaceful sit-in outside the army headquarters in Khartoum on June 3, killing more than 100 people. A court-ordered services restored across Sudan on Tuesday after lawyer Abdelazim al-Hassan launched a lawsuit challenging the block. The restoration, however, was limited to fixed-land lines, prompting the Khartoum-based lawyer to demand it be extended to 3G and 4G mobile services. “I returned to court and said that numerous clients of Zain and other telecom companies were impacted due to the cut,” Hassan told a news conference. “Today, the court issued an order to Zain, MTN and Sudani to restore their mobile internet services,” he said, referring to the three main telecom companies operating in Sudan. Several subscribers confirmed services had been restored on their mobile devices.

“I’m still not happy because this should not have been done,” said Marwa Abdelrahim, a lecturer at Ahfad University for Women in Khartoum’s twin city of Omdurman. “The government has no right to hold the country hostage,” she added. Social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter allowed Sudanese to mobilise in the weeks leading up to and during the protests that toppled long-time leader Omar al-Bashir. Though al-Bashir was brought down in early April, protests demanding the military cede power to a civilian-led authority persisted.

“Regarding social media, we see during this period that it represents a threat for the security of the country and we will not allow that,” General Shamseddine Kabbashi, spokesman of the ruling military council, said last month. But last week, the generals and protesters reached a deal to form a joint civilian-military ruling body, which will install a new government and parliament for a transitional period of three years. The agreement between the two sides is expected to be formally signed in the next few days.

China demands US cancel proposed $2.2bn arms sale to Taiwan China has demanded that the United States “immediately cancel” a potential $2.2bn arms sale to Taiwan, including battle tanks and anti-aircraft missiles. The move would be Washington’s first big-ticket military sale to the democratically-governed island in decades, and comes amid deteriorating ties between the US and China, the world’s two largest economies that have been locked in an acrimonious trade war. It risks further heightening tensions with China, which considers Taiwan a breakaway province and has not ruled out the use of force to bring the self-ruled island under its control. Addressing reporters on Tuesday, Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said that Beijing had lodged formal complaints through diplomatic channels expressing “strong dissatisfaction and resolute opposition” to the proposed sale. Shuang called the proposed deal a “crude interference” in Chinese internal affairs that harmed “China’s sovereignty and security interests”. “China urges the US to ... immediately cancel the planned arms sale and stop military relations with Taipei to avoid damaging Sino-US relations and harming peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait,” he added. “Nobody should underestimate the Chinese government’s and people’s firm determination to defend the country’s sovereignty and territorial integrity and oppose foreign interference.” According to the US Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA), the deal includes 108 M1A2T Abrams tanks, 250 Stinger portable anti-aircraft missiles,

related equipment and support - at an estimated cost of just over $2.2bn. The proposed sale “will contribute to the modernisation of the recipient’s main battle tank fleet”, improve its air defence system and “support the foreign policy and national security of the United States by helping to improve the security and defensive capability (of Taiwan)”, DSCA said. It would not alter the “basic military balance in the region”, the agency added, and Congress has been notified. US legislators have 30 days to object to the sale but are unlikely to do so. Taiwan has been ruled separately from China since the end of a civil war in 1949, but Beijing considers it a part of its territory. Beijing has significantly stepped up diplomatic and military pressure on Taipei since the election in 2016 of President Tsai Ing-wen, whose Democratic Progressive Party refuses to acknowledge that the island is part of “one China”, a principle that prevents formal diplomatic relations with Taiwan. It has staged military exercises near the island, and steadily reduced the already small number of nations that recognise Taiwan. Al Jazeera’s Wayne Hay, reporting from Beijing, said that China’s reaction to the potential sale did not come as a surprise. “China views Taiwan as a breakaway province, one that is willing to use force to retake,” Hay said. “Taiwan, on the other hand, feels that it is coming under increasing military threat from mainland China and needs the support of the US both in the form of hardware military equipment but also logistics.

Serena Williams fined $10,000 for Wimbledon court damage

Seven-time champion Serena Williams has been fined $10,000 for damaging one of the All England Club courts with her racquet, officials said Tuesday. The 37-year-old American was sanctioned for an incident which took place during a practice session before the tournament got underway.

“The code given is for unsportsmanlike behaviour. The reason is court damage,” a spokeswoman told AFP. Williams is in action twice later Tuesday when she faces fellow American Alison Riske for a place in the semi-finals. She then returns to Centre Court to partner Britain’s Andy Murray in the mixed doubles.

Rohr believes that edging out the host nation has put the Bafana Bafana in strong position in the competition. “South Africa are the favourites for this game. They beat Egypt in front of a big crowd which is not an easy thing to do,” Rohr stated during a press conference at the Cairo International Stadium on Tuesday. “We saw the game between Egypt and South Africa. We know South Africa very well because we were in the same group in the qualifiers . You are full confidence when you beat the number one favourites with one of the best players in Africa (Mohamed Salah). “We lost against Madagascar and suffered in our win against Cameroon.

We had to fight hard coming from a goal down to win the game.” Rohr added: “We are coming to a new stadium. We stayed in Alexandria where we played all our matches before now. Nice place, close to the beach. The players love the place. “We have to travel down to Cairo. A new place for us. South Africa have been here (Cairo) before us. They also know this place and stadium better than us.” The German however says he is expecting an exciting match from two good teams. “It is going to be a good match between two exciting teams. We are hungry and ready for the game,” Rohr added. “After the loss to Madagascar, I told my players that the loss was good for us ahead of playing Cameroon and it is the same for tomorrow’s game. My team will never be arrogant. We will keep our fighting spirit and humility.”

CAVE advocates non-violence election through football Ukpono Ukpong, Abuja In a bid to raise the awareness for a peaceful electoral process in Nigeria, a non-governmental organisation, Campaign Against Violence Election (CAVE), has taken its advocacy program to the youths on the pitch in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). The CAVE National Coordinator, Stephen Ushie while addressing the Journalist after a football match tagged “Sport for Peace” in Abuja called on the youths who are majorly used to perpetrate violence during the election period to refuse such jobs irrespective of the offer as “no man’s political ambition worth destroying or shedding another human’s blood”. Ushie noted that football was selected as a means to raise the campaign due to its ability to unify

the people especially the youths irrespective of tribe and religion. “The campaign started as a result of the silence of the Nigerian populace towards violent election in Nigeria. We try to create an environment where political violence would be a thing of the past. “We picked football because the same way crime is a global phenomenon, football is the only game that is loved by all irrespective of tribe and religion. “Football is the only thing that can equal violence head to head. Wherever you find violence, you will see football, so we want to use it as a mechanism to fight election violence to a standstill. He expressed satisfaction on the level of turnout for the event noting that the youths are gradually coming to understand that nobody’s ambition is worth the human life.

Team Peace, the winners of the 2019 CAVE Sport for Peace in Abuja.

Unending ‘war’ between Nigerian politicians and judges

Times Guest Columnist By Jide Ojo

There are three arms of government, no doubt: the executive, the legislature and the judiciary. They are very pivotal to sustainability of any democracy. Other institutions of democracy include the Election Management Bodies such as the Independent National Electoral Commission and State Independent Electoral Commission, Civil Society Organisations, the media and the political parties. Members of political parties are called politicians. They elect among themselves leaders to run their party offices. Some of the organs of political parties to which people are appointed or elected to occupy include the Board of Trustees, National and State Executive Committees, National and State Working Committees among others. Part of the functions of political parties include leadership recruitment and political socialisation. Leadership recruitment function of political parties includes sponsorship of candidates for elections into both the executive and legislative positions. Critical to party nomination process is what is generally known as party primaries which is an intra-party election. When a party wins election, it gets to form government. Out of the three arms of government, politicians populate two of them, that is the Executive and the Legislative arms. But for the doctrine of Separation of Powers and Checks and Balances, the politicians would have taken over the control of the judiciary as well. However, judges in Nigeria do not stand for elections as members of the two other arms do. Politicians across party lines are inclined to act with impunity. Many of them prefer to jettison conventional rules for rules of the thumbs. Whether in power or in the opposition, they prefer shortcuts to due process. The rule of law counts for little in their reckoning. A Friday, May 24, 2019 Supreme Court judgment had stripped the All Progressives Congress of its electoral victories in Zamfara State due to the fact that the party conducted invalid primaries. This means the primaries were not in tandem with provisions of Section 87 of the Electoral Act 2010, as amended. Ahead of the 2019 General Election, the same apex court had barred the ruling party from contesting over 50 elective positions – Governorship, Senate, House of Representatives and State House of Assembly positions in Rivers State. This unprecedented act by the Nigerian judiciary has drawn the ire of politicians in the ruling APC

who condemned the judgment of the Supreme Court. It was like the judges are on a war path with the ruling APC as over 20 out of about 27 Certificates of Return earlier issued by INEC to newly elected individuals under the platform of the party were withdrawn on the orders of the courts. I bear witness to the fact that the judges of different courts who have ruled against the APC may not have anything personal against those candidates. I said this because several other political parties including the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party have also suffered a similar fate as did some of the APC members. Recall that Nigerian judges had ruled against the PDP in Rivers State when the party withdrew the nomination of Chibuike Amaechi in 2006 then as a governorship aspirant, without cogent and verifiable reason, as stipulated in the Electoral Act 2006. Nigerian judges in a rare demonstration of courage have also upturned the electoral victories of the PDP in a number of governorship cases. Examples that readily come to mind are those of former Governors Peter Obi of Anambra, Olusegun Mimiko of Ondo, Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti, Adams Oshiomhole of Edo and Rauf Aregbesola of Osun. These gentlemen might never have been governors if not for the judiciary who assisted to retrieve their stolen mandates from the PDP. But for the judiciary which came to the rescue of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, he would not have served out his tenure as Vice President neither would he have contested the 2007 presidential election under the Action Congress. It was another ‘locus classicus’ when the Supreme Court ruled that joint candidacy of contestants and their running mates ends at the polls and does not extend to government. Hence, in 2007, we witnessed a divided presidency with the President (Olusegun Obasanjo) being in the PDP and his deputy being in the AC. When some governors were trying to elongate their tenures through the backdoor by misinterpreting Section 180 (2) of 1999 Nigerian Constitution as amended in 2010 to say that their tenures start to count from the day they were sworn in after winning re-run elections, it was the Honorable Justices of the Supreme Court who in a landmark judgment on January 27, 2012 that correctly interpreted that section of the law that any governor whose election is annulled and is asked to be re-conducted, should he win the re-run, his tenure will start to count from when he was initially sworn in and not the time he wins the re-run.

This position was later reflected in the 2010 constitution amendment. It was through judicial activism that Nigeria now has staggered elections in which case governorship elections in Anambra, Kogi, Bayelsa, Ekiti, Edo, Ondo, and Osun states now hold on different dates. Beyond elections, the Nigerian judiciary has been redressing executive recklessness and legislative rascality. It was members of Bench, judges, who have been nullifying many of the rash and unconstitutional impeachments of many deputy governors and indeed governors by the state Houses of Assembly. Among them was the nullification of the impeachments of former Governor Murtala Nyako of Adamawa State as well as those of the ex-deputy governors Sunday Onyebuchi of Enugu State, Mohammed Garba Gadi of Bauchi State, and Ali Olanusi of Ondo State. I dare say that if not for the steadfastness and activism of some of the judges and justices of our courts, politicians would have railroaded Nigeria’s democracy into autocracy with the likelihood of military intervention. Rather than lampoon judges who demonstrate courage by righting the wrongs committed by politicians, we should rather laud their yeoman’s effort and encourage them to do more. Even though in electoral matters it is the politicians that win and lose, they should learn the right lessons from their electoral misfortunes. Judges are not after the job of politicians but give these landmark judgments in order to promote democratic ethos in our political parties. I know for a fact that every judgment a judge gives wins him or her friends and enemies alike, be they in civil or criminal cases including election petitions. It is most unfortunate that politicians from the other two arms of government have been relentless in compromising the integrity of many judges by offering some of them hefty bribes that are irresistible. The political elite should desist from this ignoble practice and allow members of the bench to carry out their functions without let or hindrance; fear or favour. Party administrators, seeing what the judiciary has done in the aforementioned election petitions cases, should be committed to due process in the management of their party affairs. It should be clear from the electoral misfortunes of the APC in Rivers and Zamfara that party constitution is subordinate to the country’s constitution, the Electoral Act and INEC Regulations and Guidelines for the conduct of the elections. Will they heed this noble advice? Time will tell.

AFCON: How Nigeria-South Africa rivalry started – Austin Okocha Nigeria legend Austin ‘Jay-Jay’ Okocha is looking forward to an “interesting” encounter when the three-time African champions lock horns with South Africa at the Cairo International Stadium. Ahead of the quarterfinal outing at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations, the two countries had previously met in the continental showpiece twice – in 2000 and 2004 – and the Super Eagles came out victorious on both occasions, with Okocha playing a key role in both. The former Super Eagles captain has recalled how the rivalry between both countries started and why Cairo is a good venue for the match. “It was great because before then I was personally looking forward to playing against Bafana Bafana because we were having this argument who the best African team is,” Okocha told the media. “We felt Bafana won it in 1996 because we didn’t take part. I think we were on fire then, we were having our best period and that was the year we had won the Olympics [in Atlanta]. “But then the opportunity came in 2000, and

for us it was personal to make sure that we get one over them. “It was a bit easier because we were at home. So, it will be interesting to see both teams playing against each other on a neutral ground.” Nigeria are yet to defeat South Africa in their last five outings, settling for four draws and a loss against Bafana Bafana, which came in 2017 during Afcon qualifying series. Okocha is not bothered by the recent headto-head results but thinks the encounter will be decided by the players’ performances on Wednesday. “I think it’s always easier to sit on the outside and act as if you have the best solution. But I’ve played the game at the highest level and I can tell you my opinion,” he continued. “You can come up with whatever tactics you want as a coach but if you don’t have the tools to execute you will struggle, and if you don’t have willing players that are ready to commit to the cause than you will struggle. “I think it’s all about the players’ mindset on the day and the team that wants it more.”
