committed to ensuring a larger percentage of ICT procurement was awarded to Nigerian indigenous firms, noting that the target was for the country to be selfsufficient in producing software and hardware devices of high quality.

He, however, described the role of NITDA strategic as contained in section 6 of the NITDA Act of 2007, adding that technology was fast-changing, and Nigeria as a country should continually adapt and ensure that innovation and development is unrestricted.

According to him, NITDA, within its capacity and statutory the mandate will continue to advocate preferential status for local vendors offering Over The Top (OTT) services in the ICT industry.

Pantami, represented

by Head, Southwest Zonal Office of NITDA, Mrs. Chioma OkeeAguguo, said: “NITDA’s regulatory guidelines on Nigerian content on ICT set the tone for OTT services, data and information management and human capacity development as highlighted in sections 11, 12,13, 14 and 15 Presidential Executive Orders 003,005 further strengthened these guidelines.

“NITDA seeks to ensure that a larger percentage of ICT procurement is actually awarded to Nigerian indigenous firms. The target is for the country to be sufficiently producing software and hardware devices.”

Commenting, the Executive Vice Chairman of the Nigerian Communications Commission(NCC), Prof.

Umar Danbatta, decried the influx of counterfeit and illegal ICT devices in both developed and developing countries.

Danbatta said unchecked import and use of unregistered cloned, substandard, counterfeit, stolen and non-compliant devices pose a considerable threat to Quality of Service (QoS) and Experience (QoE) and security in Nigeria.

“According to Deloitte in its 2018 Nigeria cyber security outlook, cybercrime is estimated to cost the Nigerian economy about $500 million per annum.

Consistent with the Commission’s regulatory mandate, several consultative fora were organised to enlighten stakeholders on the growing menace posed by the influx of cloned and fake ICT devices into the country”, he added.

CBN lending policy will normalise credit market, economic growth – LCCI

The Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) says the lending policy of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) will normalise the credit markets, spur economic growth and broaden the interface between entrepreneurs and the banking industry.

Director-General of LCCI, Mr. Muda Yusuf, said this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Sunday in Lagos.

Yusuf said this while reacting to CBN’s letter dated July 3, to all Deposit Money Banks (DMB) mandating them to maintain a 60 per cent Loan to Deposit Ratio (LDR); in effect, the banks are required to give minimum of 60 per cent of their deposits as loans, with effect from September 30.

The CBN said the policy was to encourage SMEs, Retail, Mortgage and Consumer lending, adding that it would soon provide a detailed framework for classification of enterprises or businesses.

Yusuf said the new lending policy was a timely corrective measure to improve credits to the private sector, which had for years grappled with issues of credit access, cost of credit and tenure of funds.

“These challenges are

more severe for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises in the economy.

“The economy was characterised by profound crowding effect of the private sector in the financial markets owing to the diversion of credit to government through the instrumentalities of treasury bills and Federal Government bonds,” he said.

The LCCI boss expressed optimism that the new lending policy would impact the economy through quality financial intermediation while bridging the funding gaps in many sectors.

He said it would improve economic inclusion of more SMEs and promote economic diversification in line with the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan (ERGP).

Yusuf noted that the policy had the probability of reducing interest rate as supply of credit would increase and improve lending creativity and innovation by banks.

“This will result into a broader and more diversified sectoral coverage of lending,” he said.

The economist urged the CBN and the fiscal authorities to adopt measures toward addressing some possible risks in the lending policy.

He proposed the strengthening of the Collateral Registry to enhance the profiling of borrowers in the banking system, adding that the character of borrower had been identified as a major risk factor to lending in the economy.

Yusuf called for scaling up corporate governance practices in the banking system to prevent insider abuse and compromise of credit assessment processes.

He submitted that credit guarantee framework should be strengthened to give comfort to the banks and also promotion of the use of credit insurance.

Yusuf urged the fiscal authorities to effectively address enabling business environment issues, particularly infrastructure deficit and quality, in order to reduce credit risk.

The LCCI boss tasked the CBN to ensure alignment of the new policy with extant monetary policy actions, especially with regards to Cash Reserve Ratio and the Liquidity Ratio which are currently at 22.5 per cent and 30 per cent respectively.

Yusuf stressed that the detailed guidelines of the policy should take the recommendations into account while imploring the CBN to collaborate with stakeholders to ensure impactful outcomes of the policy on the economy.

NIS rescues 453 victims of human trafficking Ukpono Ukpong, Abuja

The Nigeria Immigration Services (NIS) rescued no fewer than 453 victims of human trafficking and child labour as well as arrested 78 human traffickers in 2018.

According to a report released by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), NIS also generated N39.06 billion as revenue in 2018 as against the N35.72 billion revenue it generated in 2017, representing a positive growth of 9.34 per cent.

The report also noted that a total of 423 victims of trafficking in person and smuggling of migrants were re-united with their respective families and 209 irregular migrants were also intercepted in 2018.

Of the 453 victims of human trafficking and child labour rescued, 163 were rescued in Oyo State alone being their highest number for the year followed by Katsina and Kano states with 94 and

58 respectively. Similarly, 27 human traffickers were arrested in Oyo State followed

by 18 in Lagos being the highest in 2018.

The report further disclosed

UNFPA restates commitment to end gender-based violence, harmful practices The UN Population Fund (UNFPA) has restated its commitment to support government at all levels to end gender-based violence and other harmful practices to achieve Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030.

The acting country representative of the Fund, Dr. Eugene Kongnyuy, made this known in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Sunday in Abuja.

Kongnyuy noted that in the past 50 years of UNFPA’s existence, the agency had worked assiduously to improve coordination, prevention and response to gender-based violence such as female genital mutilation and cutting among others.

He said initially, the approach was to provide medical services for the women who had been through traumas such as rape and other forms of violence.

“A woman who was raped needs HIV screening, to ascertain status and prevent HIV infection, something to prevent pregnancy and other reproductive health interventions.

“UNFPA also realised that genderbased violence exposes women to mental trauma, therefore the package keeps increasing.

“Therefore, we increase the package from just physical health to include mental health, to take care psycho-social aspects of health,’’ he said.

The country representative explained

that UNFPA also realised that even after psycho-social care, some women, like those who have fistula, were rejected by their communities.

He said fistula was another form of violence against women.

He added that UNFPA saw some women in Maiduguri who took refuge at the hospital for between about six years and 11 years because they didn’t have where to go.

“UNFPA added livelihood packages to enable the women contribute positively to their communities.

“The livelihood package includes vocational training and skills acquisition schemes such as tailoring and soap making, among others.

“Results show that when these women went back they were no longer rejected or called names in their communities.

“The women (beneficiaries) are now called by what they produce; the scheme changed everything for these women,’’ Kongnyuy said.

NAN reports that UNFPA is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2019 and the 25th anniversary of the International Conference for Population Development (ICPD) in July 2019.

In commemoration of the anniversaries, the agency also pledges its commitment to ensure that every birth is safe, every pregnancy is wanted and every girl and woman is treated with dignity and respect.

Costain bridge to be completed in Sept, says Lagos Dep Gov The Lagos State Deputy Governor, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat, on Sunday, said that the construction of the Costain bridge would be completed by September.

Hamzat made this known during an inspection tour of the project in Lagos.

He explained that the existing bridge at Costain would give way to a new higher bridge which would serve as a flyover above the new Lagos/ Ibadan Standard Rail line Project.

According to him, the existing Costain bridge has to be demolished

because it lacked enough headroom for the new standard gauge train that would pass under.

“We have come to inspect the project because there will be a need to divert traffic while they are constructing. People cannot pass through this place and we want to ensure that people’s lives are not endangered.

“So, we are here to check and plan on how to divert the traffic around this axis so that people do not go through pain or lock down this area while we do developmental network

that is necessary.

“This is to prevent confusion and traffic gridlock while the project is on.

It’s something that needs to be done for the development of our state,” he said.

Hamzat noted that the the Ministry of Transportation would sensitise the public on the diversion plans ahead of the time to help people move around with ease.

According to him, this project is about enhancing the movement of people by rail and also by road by replacing one infrastructure with

another one.

“We are also hopeful that, bearing the weather, this bridge will be completed by September, “the deputy governor said.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the former Minister of Transportation, Mr Rotimi Amaechi, had in Nov. 2017 announced that Jibowu and Costain bridges would be demolished.

Amaechi said that the demolition would give way for the laying of tracks of Lagos-Ibadan Standard Gauge railway.

Killings: Students’ group wants S’West govs to act

The Federation of Ekiti State Students’ Union has decried the spate of killings and other violent crimes in the country, saying that enough is enough and that the time to act is now.

In a statement issued by its National Senate President, Comrade Kolade Ifeoluwa, in Ado-Ekiti on Sunday, the group said that government should without further delay do what was necessary to deal with insecurity in the country. ”The safety of citizens of this country should be placed above any other issue,” the group stated.

The group was reacting to the killing of Mrs Funke Olakunrin, the 58-yearold daughter of Pa Reuben

Fasoranti, a leader of Afenifere, the Pan-Yoruba organisation, on Friday.

The group described the murder of Olakunrin by yet-to-be identified gunmen as one too many, saying the incident reflected the seriousness of the insecurity in the country, especially in the Southwest region.

It asked the Southwest governors and the Aare Ona Kakanfo of Yoruba land, Gani Adams to stand up for the region before the situation would get out of hand.

“We are being made to see the situation and having the impression that the government was incompetent, and saying with a bleeding heart that the

problem is unacceptable to us and Nigerian students in general.

“We are calling on government at all levels to wake up and urgently take action to protect lives and properties in the country.’’

The group called on Southwest leaders, particularly the governors, to rise to the challenges of increasing insecurity in the region.

“We share in this loss and condole with the bereaved family and we are calling on the Southwest governors to act now.

“Our governors must realise that they shall be held responsible, individually and collectively, should they

fail to prioritise and support one another in securing their people. The time to act is now.

“The stories of series of security challenges from Yoruba land should be stopped by whatever means possible.

“The time for our governors to stand up on our behalf is now, they can count on our support, the students, anytime we are called upon in their bid to drive out these criminals from our land.

“It is only by doing this that Mrs. Olakunrin and all those murdered before her, especially Yoruba leaders like Chief Bola Ige, Pa Alfred Rewane, Kudirat Abiola, among others, would not have died in vain.”

Community policing will combat Short News Senate commiserates with crime scourge –Osinbajo Fasoranti over daughter’s murder Adewale Momoh, Akure

Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo on Sunday visited the leader of Afenifere, Pa Reuben Fasoranti over the death of his daughter, Mrs. Funke Olakunrin, who was killed along the Benin-Sagamu Expressway on Friday by yet to be identified gunmen.

The Vice President who was accompanied by Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu of Ondo state and Special Adviser to the President on Political Matters, Senator Babafemi Ojudu, described the killing of the 58-year-old daughter of the Afenifere Leader as tragic.

Speaking to journalists at the Akure residence of Pa Fasoranti, Prof. Osinbajo reiterated the importance of community policing system to combat crime in the country and also explained the importance of intelligence gathering for effective policing.

“As you know, I’m here to commiserate with the families of Olakunri and Pa

Rebeun Fasoranti. The President has very recently met not only the service chiefs, but also the inspector general of police and he has laid out a new policy of community policing.

“One of the most important things is this sort of crime because they are largely economic crimes; people are trying to make money by kidnapping. Another important thing is the intelligence gathering that is why we have the community policing system where policemen would be trained in their own local government and they would remain there” he said.

According to Osinbajo, the government would also be engaging the military to mount check points on known flash points in order to boast its community policing system.

He explained further that the inspector general police has already committed to ensuring that there was full coverage of the police using helicopters.

“As close as we get to the community policing structure that we expect to have while we are engaging the army so

that there will be a bit of more military presence especially along the roads. This is to fasten the search for these killers and also to ensure that there is adequate presence to deter this kind of terrible situation from reoccurring.

“We are looking at the whole security architecture and trying to ensure that we are able to scale up and ensure that we are able to protect the lives and properties of Nigerians.

“Security in a big country like Nigeria, as you can imagine the challenge is dynamic and the we also have to be consistently dynamic in ensuring that we are able to beat the challenges as they appear.

“I think that we can be very hopeful that we would see peace and calm as some of the steps we are taking come to fruition. You know also, that we met with the governors in the South West and in the different zones and everybody is coming to ensure that security is adequate and everybody feels safe and secure,” Osinbajo added.

The Senate has joined other Nigerians to condole with the family of Afenifere leader and elder statesman, Pa Reuben Fasoranti over Friday’s murder of his daughter, Mrs. Funke Olakunrin, along the Akure -Ore Road in Ondo state.

It described the gruesome killing of the 58 –year- old Mrs. Olakunrin as very sad, devastating and a worrisome development.

A statement by Senator Dayo Adeyeye, the Senate spokesperson on Sunday reads: “the National Assembly (Senate) is disturbed by the spare of incessant attacks and wanton killings of citizens either by herdsmen, hired assassins, kidnappers and other men of the underworld that are having field days in wrecking havoc on the life and properties of innocent citizens in the country. How have we gone this bad?”

The Senate emphasized that security to life is a fundamental right of every citizen; therefore, Nigerians deserve this right from the government all the time.

While condemning this heinous and barbaric act, the Senate urged the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu to begin a massive manhunt for the killers of late Mrs. Olakunrin and ensure that the perpetrators of this gruesome killing are apprehended.

“Also, measures to prevent future occurrence of such incident should be put in place by improving the security architecture on Nigerian highways, social gatherings and worship centres across the country.

“The Senate will cooperate with the executive and create enabling legislative environment towards solving this security crisis in the country. It will consider favourably, every appropriation request from the executive targeted at strengthening security in the country,” said Adeyeye.

The Senate further extended its condolences to the elder statesman, Pa Reuben Fasoranti and the entire family and prayed God will console and be with the entire family in the hour of bereavement.

...Tinubu warns against politicising Olakunri’s death Tunde Opalana, Abuja National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has cautioned Nigerians not to politicize or give ethnic colouration to the gruesome murder of Mrs. Funke Olakunri, daughter of Pa. Reuben Fasoranti, the leader of Yoruba sociocultural group, Afenifere.

Rather than using the unfortunate incidence to advance any political agenda and ethnic divisiveness, Tinubu said the situation calls for a sober reflection on how to put an end to such gruesome killings of innocent souls across the length and breadth of the country.

The former Lagos state governor in a condolence letter to the Afenifere leader during a visit to his Ondo residence on Saturday, urged everyone to be weary of what they say about the incident so as not to further deepen the Pa Fadoranti’s grief over the loss of a cherished daughter.

“Unfortunately, some people are eagerly trying to use this tragedy to advance their political agenda. I sincerely regret such behaviour for it is wrong and out of place. It does not fit the

moment. This is a time for consolation and genuine condolence.

“Everyone loves and supports you. I am sure that no effort will be spared in identifying the assailants and bringing them to full justice,” he said in the letter.

Tinubu however, promised that the federal government will set in motion security apparatus to unravel the perpetrators of the heinous crime, insisting that “I have been assured by government and law enforcement authorities that the perpetrators of this terrible act will be apprehended and face the brunt of the law for what they have committed.

“We have faith that justice will indeed be done. But, we must seek more than this. All of us who love you must also work together to honour Funke’s life by taking concrete steps to make sure such attacks do not continue to occur against the innocent and the peaceful.”

Relishing memories of his friendship with the departed soul, he added that “Funke was an amiable and good soul who did and meant no harm to anyone.

Like her father, she exemplified the best traits of our people.

“It is senseless and extremely painful

that such a fine human being would be attacked by armed assailants while she was travelling with family members along the Akure-Ore Road.

“Funke and I shared a happy and close relationship. We regularly exchanged ideas and advice to each other. We could speak to each other freely and honestly because of mutual respect that described our relationship. These talks enriched me. I shall miss them.”

Condoling Pa Fasoranti to take solace in God, Tinubu said “I shall always treasure the relationship we had and will hold these memories in remembrance for I see myself as your son who respects and admires you deeply. It is from this wellspring of affection and emotion that I write this letter.

“I too have lost a precious child. I have a sense of what you are going through.

Words are insufficient to express my innermost sentiments at this moment.

All I can say is that my fervent prayer is for God to extend His divine hand in order to lend the comfort to you and the Fasoranti and Olakunrin families that only He can provide.

“May God give you the strength and solace to carry on Papa.”

The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has condemned the harassment, intimidation and unfair treatment of the former acting Chief Judge of Kebbi state, Elizabeth Karatu, who was barred from gaining access to her courtroom to deliver judgment by an official of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps (NSCDC).

The NSCDC official had claimed that he was acting based on the directive given to him by the management.

The organization urged the Chairman of the National Judicial Council (NJC) and acting Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Ibrahim Tanko Muhammad to publicly condemn the unfair treatment of Justice Karatu.

SERAP also called on the chief justice to urgently refer the matter to the appropriate authorities for a prompt, thorough and effective investigation in order to ensure that those responsible for this unlawful act are named and shamed, and brought to justice.

SERAP in the statement signed by its Deputy Director, Kolawole Oluwadare, said that “barring Justice Karatu from delivering judgment is an intolerable act of intimidation against the highest judicial authority in Kebbi state at the material time.

“Regardless of any allegations that may have been levelled against her, it is clear that Justice Karatu has been unfairly treated by the apparently unlawful actions of the Kebbi state Governor, Atiku Bagudu and the NSCDC barring her from gaining access to her courtroom to rule on cases.

“Barring Justice Karatu from gaining access to her courtroom is entirely incompatible with the sacred principle of judicial independence and the failure by the authorities to observe important procedural guarantees here is a textbook case of executive rascality.”

SERAP added that it will pursue justice in this case, to ensure that this shameful act does not affect the work of other judges or undermine their ability to freely and effectively perform their judicial duties.

The statement reads in part: “The NJC should immediately set up a panel to thoroughly and effectively investigate the alleged role played by the new acting Chief Judge of Kebbi state, Justice Suleiman Mohammed Ambursa in the unfair treatment, harassment and intimidation of Justice Karatu, and if there is sufficient and relevant admissible evidence, to ensure appropriate disciplinary measures and sanctions against him.

Traders at Calabar Ediba Ika Ika Market send SOS to Ayade Our reporter Traders and other business owners at the Ediba Ika Ika Market, Calabar Municipality of Cross River state have cried out to Governor Ben Ayade to come to their urgent rescue as they are now under siege and on the verge of been thrown out of their legitimate means of livelihood.

The traders, mainly women and a few men made the call when they reached out to Daily Times over the weekend.

Pleading not to be named to avoid being singled out for further humiliation, the traders complained that the head of Calabar Municipality Council Pastor Augustine Nkagi is colluding with the Chairman of the market, Emma Mbora to throw them and their goods out of the market, in spite of the huge investment they have made to develop the market.

They said many of their shops are already under lock and key while some others have been destroyed by the Pastor Augustine Nkagi led Municipality Council, leading to fears by many of them to enter the market and operate their businesses.

They are therefore, calling on the state governor to intervene and save them and their families from unemployment and consequent hunger, as a result of the injustice against them.

According to their story, the market under contention was an open place where they paid N5, 000 annually to ply their trade makeshift tents and umbrellas since 2014 until last year when Emma Mbora appeared from nowhere with claims that the authorities of the municipality have handed over the place for him to control.

They said Emma told them he has been authorized to develop the place and that anybody interested in owning shops would have to pay for the number of shops they want, which would make them become owners as the shop would be of little space and therefore less expensive.

The former Anambra state governor prayed for the repose of the soul of all who lost their lives to the senseless killings either from herdsmen or armed robbers, challenged the relevant authorities to stem the frightening tide.

Obi charged the security agencies to ensure that they track down the killers of Mrs. Olakunrin and other criminals that have made the nation’s highways impassable and a death trap.

He wondered how investors can come to a country whose highways are unsafe with rampant crime and criminality and called on the government to rise up and take responsibility.

ACCI tasks FG on policies to tackle AfCFTA challenges

The Abuja Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI) has urged the federal government to formulate policies that will tackle the challenges of regulation and competitiveness of the African Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA).

ACCI President, Adetokunbo Kayode said this at a news conference on the challenges of AfCFTA in Abuja at the weekend.

President Muhammadu Buhari had on July 7, at the 12th Extraordinary Summit of the African Union (AU) Heads of State and Government in Niamey, Niger Republic signed the AfCFTA. Kayode said that previous governments have made policies on industrial growth and revolution, adding that there was the need for the federal government to take industrial development issues seriously.

He said that the organised private sector in Nigeria has been in the forefront of discussions on whether

Nigeria should be part of the agreement, asserting thatcompetitiveness was one of the challenges facing the agreement as Nigeria is not competitive because of high cost of production.

He urged the government to put an end to regulations which act as stumbling block to businesses while advising government agencies to play their part for things to take shape.

“It is believed that our regulatory framework is opaque and we are not doing well in the ease of doing business in spite of our efforts in the past two years.Instead, of the Nigeria Export Promotion Council (NEPC) requiring for nine documents to enable export from the country, government can make it one document to boost exportation.

“Instead, of pushing people from table to table by the Nigeria Customs Service at the Nigerian ports, it can embrace technology by using single window scheme.

“We have issues about power generation among others, 90 per cent

of these issues are government related and government needs to resolve these issues,” he said.

According to him, Egypt delivered 10, 000 megawatts in 27 months, adding that Nigeria can replicate that to generate a lot of businesses, create employment and jobs through its value chain for production to work seamlessly.

“Nigeria cannot be a dumping ground for other countries because those items presumed dumped are imported and somebody paid for them.

In Benin Republic, 99 per cent of people importing rice are Nigerians.

“It is when we are not producing enough that people can only import, we are not producing enough because the system and government policies are blocking production,” he added.

Kayode, who is an AU trade policy ambassador, said that the African business community is excited by the agreement, but is also scared that Nigeria would take over business environment in the continent.

The Chairman, Conference of Speakers of State Legislatures of Nigeria, Mudashiru Obasa, has commended the National Assembly for its intervention to resolve the crises rocking the Edo and Bauchi state Houses of Assembly.

Obasa, who is also the speaker of the Lagos state House of Assembly, made the commendation in a statement he personally issued on Sunday in Lagos.

He said the conference welcomes the recent resolve of the Senate and the House of Representatives to intervene in the squabble at the state assemblies.

According to him, the speakers’ conference is not concerned about who becomes the speaker of a state assembly, but that the process through which such an individual emerges must be in line with the rule of law.

“Every legislature in Nigeria has a House rule that must be followed by members and without undue external interference. The Nigerian constitution stipulates how the legislative arm of government should function as well as the role of its members.

“We stand by our position not to recognise any speaker that does not emerge following the business rules of the affected House of Assembly. We also call on the ruling political parties in Edo and Bauchi states to step into the crises in the states for democracy to thrive,” the chairman said.

FG adopts measures to check cybercrime – NCC boss The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) says it has put in place stringent measures to check cybercrime in the country, especially in the banking sector.

Executive Vice Chairman of the Commission, Prof. Umar Danbatta, disclosed this at the 2019 annual dinner and awards night held at the Grand Central Hotel Kano at the weekend.

The dinner was organised by the Nigerian Society of Engineers (NSE), Kabuga branch, to honour members of the association for their contribution towards the development of the country.

Dambatta, who expressed concern over the ugly trend, said that cybercrime would soon be a thing of the past as the federal government was putting in place all necessary measures to tackle the problem.

He noted that over 60 million Nigerians have access to high speed internet services in the country, adding that the national broadband penetration, which was between five and six per cent when he was appointed, had now increased to 33.13 per cent.

“The commission is looking at a new target which the federal government will soon make an announcement on,” he said.

According to him, the commission remains committed to ensure that more Nigerians have access to high speed internet services within the next four years and thanked the Kabuga branch of the NSE for organising the event adding that the recognition will encourage him to do more so as to justify the confidence proposed in him.

Ruga controversy and Buhari’s place in history

Onyema Omenuwa

Let me state without equivocation that the controversy and debate, which the Federal Government-proposed Ruga policy has generated will not abate so soon. I’m not a pessimist but not with the sheer intransigence being exhibited by Muhammadu Buhari’s administration to foist the policy on the country, willy-nilly. Buhari is from the Fulani ethnic group, which the Ruga agenda is designed to benefit. You may argue that there is nothing wrong with an ethnic group being favoured for a governmental programme; yes but not when such a programme is laden with very scary implications for the rest of the country.

As a result, everyone, including those folks from the south that are usually given to political correctness, is kicking against Ruga; except of course the government and the north, where the Fulani hold sway as determiners of political direction.

It’s significant that for once, all the federating states in the southern part of the country and their indigenes have risen in unison against a government policy, shunning hypocrisy. Benue State has even aligned with these southern counterparts,notwithstanding that the state itself is situated along the middle belt axis, where its sister-states have joined the north to literally beckon to Ruga. For education, Benue State is a living witness to what Ruga could mean when stripped of official covering. In recent times,no other state has borne the brunt of horrendous killings by Fulani herdsmen as did some Benue State communities. Those farming communities did nothing wrong to warrant such carnage, except their resistance to forcible occupation of their farmlands by the nomadic herdsmen and their herds of cattle.

I have heard that Ruga (or Rugga) is a Fulani word for (human) settlement, yet the same word is being bandied about as an acronym for Rural Grazing Area. However, whatever it means is immaterial; what really matters are the realities the policy is packed with, which can upset both the cultural and demographic make-up of any community where it is allowed.The Federal Government has continued to downplay this reality. In fact, it has only just stopped short of guaranteeing that the policy will permanently put an end to incessant killings of indigenes of

local communities, where Fulani herdsmen take their cattle for grazing. Senior Special Assistant to Buhari on Media explained: “‘Ruga Settlement’ that seeks to settle migrant pastoral families simply means rural settlement in which animal farmers, not just cattle herders, will be settled in an organised place with provision of necessary and adequate basic amenities such as schools, hospitals, road networks, vet clinics, markets and manufacturing entities that will process and add value to meats and animal products. Beneficiaries will include all persons in animal husbandry, not only Fulani herders.” He would further explain that “the federal government is planning this in order to curb open grazing of animals that continue to pose security threats to farmers and herders.”

Note that incessant killings of indigenous people on their farmlands by Fulani herdsmen is being referenced here as “security threats” to, wait a minute, even the invaders of those farmlands!It’s shocking that the Federal Government holds this rather misleading view on the killings. To insist that they occur on both sides during clashes between farmers and pastoralists, in spite of the victims’ gory tales, which normally attract even international media coverage, shows the Federal Government’s unmasked bias in favour of the Fulani and cruel insensitivity towards the plight of the indigenous people.

The terrible truth is that herdsmen would literally invade farming communities with their cattle. And because cows, being what they are, do not differentiate grass from crops, the farmers’ cultivated crops become feed for them.

Any attempt by the farmers to safeguard their farmlands is usually visited with overwhelming terror. Entire communities are known to have been razed by Fulani herdsmen, with hundreds of inhabitants killed in a manner that evokes imagery of a slaughterhouse. Ask Agatu people of Benue State. Ask also Nimbo people of Enugu State. Ask even the people of farming communities inthe middle belt areas of Taraba, Nasarawa and Plateau States. In fact, ask the people of any state the Fulani have been to with their cattle.

Herdsmen execute these blood-chilling acts because the Federal Government allows them

to bear unlicensed sophisticated weapons.

I mean, you see them wielding AK47 riffles and the like. That is yet another evidence of Fulani favouritism, considering that no other ethnic group exercises such freedom in Nigeria.Indeed, the belief that the Fulani are so privileged finds credence in the fact that the atrocities they commit go without arrest, much less prosecution and punishment.All these add to the fear of Ruga.

If atrocities of the magnitude executed by itinerant Fulani herdsmen can go on under the watch of government and its security agencies, the imagination is justifiable that host communities to the proposed Ruga would be at their killers’ mercy, should the programme come to be.The truth is that the Fulani traditional way of doing their business – open grazing, is unfriendly to crop farming. Yet they forbid hearing any suggestion that it should be reformed. Buhari himself makes a case for such, by opining that grazing routes should be maintained across Nigeria. There is no civilised or aspiring civilised where that is allowed.

Reacting to Ruga, the Nobel laureate Prof. Wole Soyinka would wonder: “Why is it that we fail to take our model from successful performers?”

Flowing from this, leaders of Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN) a Fulanicentric advocacy group,can explain away, without incurring any legal consequence, killings carried out by its members. In a supposedly lawful country! Other Fulani fringe groups will be competing to outdo one another in issuing threats and ultimatums to the rest of the country, if their wishes are not granted by government.

If you recall that Garba Shehu’s clarification was compelled by the instant rejection of the policy by particularly people of southern Nigeria, then you can’t but conclude that the later inclusion of “animal farmers,”as potential beneficiaries of Ruga, was an afterthought.

However, once aroused, suspicion doesn’t go away by mere explanation. Certainly not when there are hardly any other people, apart from the Fulani, who are as nomadic in nature as to want to leave their ancestral homes to permanently take up abode in a Ruga. The suspicion has

taken form, that once Ruga is allowed, nothing will guarantee that grazing of cattle will be restricted therein, with farmlands safe from cow invasion.

That suspicion has been further fueled, not the least by government’s handling of Ruga controversy. States of southern Nigeria have rejected the programme while their northern counterparts have expressed willingness and readiness for it. Yet the Federal Government announced that it was suspending the programme, citing the attendant controversy. If it is recalled that the same Federal Government had said that Ruga would only be established in the states that welcome it, the hidden motive behind it would be laid bare. And that is that the states of mostly southern Nigeria are the targets. The suspension has again lent credence to the conspiracy theory of expansionism by the Fulani, with its concomitant Islamisation.

Otherwise, why not roll out the programme in those willing states of the north? So there won’t be Ruga without the southern states’ buy-in?

Ordinarily every Nigerian should have the freedom to migrate to any part of the country they wish to and set up a home, without arousing the least suspicion of domination in the indigenous inhabitants or of deprivation of their ancestral lands. Sure, that would the case, if the Federal Government had not by its very acts or omissions portrayed the people of a particular ethnic group as a premium class.

Nothing offends a citizen’s sensibilities more than the consciousness that in their own country they are relegated to the status of second class citizens. They will kick against, frustrate and sabotage any programme that seeks to benefit the favoured class.

Whenever he leaves office, Buhari will be leaving a country more divided than he met it. He will be leaving a country whose latent fault lines have been given boost by his bigoted policies. Indeed, in the face of Ruga, all we can hear from indigenes of the southern states who, interestingly, campaigned and voted forBuhari, despite being warned of his unbridled tendency to enthrone favouritism and sow discord, are muffled voices of regret.But the damage has been done.

Accuser of the brethren

Femi Fani-Kayode

Permit me to begin by saying that my heart goes out to Mr. Timi Dakolo, a very pleasant and respectful young man who I first met at President Goodluck Jonathan’s house two years ago.

We interacted again two weeks ago when we spoke briefly on the phone after the news about the horrendous travails that his beautiful wife Busola was allegedly subjected to by Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo of the Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA) 19 years earlier first broke.

I commend his enormous courage and for standing by his wife at this difficult time.

Last week Pastor Enoch Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) said the following.

“Once a woman accuses you of something, no matter how irrational it is, nobody will listen to you”.

Pastor Adeboye may well be right but the question is whether this is a satisfactory state of affairs and whether it is just, fair and proper?

Should this be the case in any civilised society?

Should it be the case in the Church?

Does this “lynch-mob mentality” not demean and destroy the very fabric of our society and the very foundation of our existence?

Does it not undermine the utility, credibility and power of the Church? Should we not outrightly condemn it and seek to change it rather than espouse and accept it as a given?

Must a man, or indeed a Pastor, live in perpetual fear of the damning and implicative words of an ‘accuser of the brethren’ and grave allegations that may well have no basis in rationality or truth?

Does veracity no longer have a place in the land of the living or in the Church? Is the essence and central message of our Christian faith not to show love and to be just and fair to all?

Are we, as Christians, not meant to love even the unlovable? Are we not meant to NEVER judge a matter or condemn a man or a woman without first perusing, exploring, establishing and ascertaining all the relevant facts?

As the late Archbishop Benson Idahosa once said, “Why is the Body of Christ the only army

that shoots it’s wounded? Our job is to restore and heal one another”.

I go a step further by asking, why are believers always so ready to assume the worst about other believers and crucify them at the drop of a hat?

Why are we always so eager to join hands with unbelievers to defame and destroy our own?

Sometime last year a strange woman falsely accused Apostle Johnson Suleiman of Omega Fire Ministries of illicit and salacious sexual liaisons and encounters and many Nigerians assumed that she spoke the truth until the man of God fought back and proved that she was a fraud.

The Jezebel that accused him was eventually put to shame. She even came back to the Church a few months later with her mother and confessed that she had lied on the man of God and that she had been paid to set him up and implicate him.

Just two weeks ago in the wake of the Dakolo/ Fatoyinbo storm, another strange woman suddenly crawled out of the sewer and falsely accused Prophet T.B. Joshua of SCOAN of raping her as a child and abducting and kidnapping her for 14 years.

Thankfully in a matter of days SCOAN rose to the occasion, killed the lie, exposed the liar and proved that she was a mentally unstable and worthless creature from the pit of hell.

If the Lord had not been with these two men their respective ministries, reputations and Churches would have been utterly decimated.

The moral of the tale is as follows: never be too quick to judge simply because the accuser is a woman. She could be a legitimate victim of wrongdoing and an angel that has spoken nothing but the truth but on the other hand she could be a lying demon in human flesh and a daughter of the devil that is out to destroy: only God knows the truth.

I do not under any circumstances support or condone rape and I think that it is a beastly, barbaric, cruel and savage act. Every victim of rape deserves nothing but love, sympathy, support and encouragement and every rapist ought to be brought to justice.

There is nothing worse than a Pastor that rapes because he is in a position of immense trust and he has abused the power and influence that he has been given over others.

However before we pass judgement and hang the “offender” we must establish the truth and the facts. As far as I am concerned this has not been done in the case of Dakolo and Fatoyinbo and it may only ever be done if and when the matter goes to court.

Sadly with all that has been said in the media about Fatoyinbo over the last three weeks by some notable leaders and elders of the Body of Christ I am convinced that many in the Nigerian Church would have joined the leaders of Ancient Egypt to condemn and jail the biblical Joseph after he was falsely accused of raping Potiphar’s wife.

Must our reactions to grave, complex, salacious and unproven allegations always be emotional? Is there not a presumption of innocence under every decent and civilised moral code and indeed under our constitution?

Are we not all entitled to a fair hearing before being condemned in the court of public opinion?

Must we always believe the worst about our own even when there is no tangible evidence to prove the allegation other than the uncorroborated evidence of the so-called victim?

I was particularly disturbed by two interventions that were made by two great writers who I have immense respect for. Both of them fired hard shots and delivered powerful body blows to both Biodun and the Body of Christ last week.

The first salvo came from Dr. Reuben Abati, the former Chairman of the Editorial Board of the Guardian Newspaper and the former spokesman to President Goodluck Jonathan.

In his Tuesday column in Thisday newspaper he went as far as to assert that there was no such thing as “the anointing” anymore and openly denigrated the Pentecostal Church and Pentecostal Pastors.

The second salvo came from Mr. Yemi Adebowale, the editor of Saturday Thisday Newspaper who, in his column, said that

members of COZA Church must be under some sort of spell for defending and standing by their Pastor.

I am a great admirer of both Abati and Adebowale and most of the time I agree with them on all that they write.

However on this matter I do not share their views. I am a proud member of the Evangelical movement and the Pentecostal Church and I do not think it is right and proper to attempt to undermine the credibility of either simply because of an unproven allegation that has been made by Dakolo.

Even if proven, the criminal actions of a single rogue Pastor surely cannot be enough to legitimately indict or raise questions about the credibility, efficacy, legitimacy and power of the entire Pentecostal Church and Evangelical movement.

It is Fatoyinbo that is, so to speak, on trial here and not the Pentecostal Church. Secondly the assertion that there is no such thing as the anointing in the Pentecostal Church anymore is not only offensive but it is also simply not true.

Not only is the anointing alive and well in the Church of Christ but it also still doing wonders, still breaking yokes, still setting the captives free and still bringing joy, peace, blessings, hope, strength, victories and deliverance to millions.

If that were not the case the easiest thing in the world to do would be to destroy Churches and scatter the sheep simply by making baseless allegations against the Pastor and the shepherd.

It is Fatoyinbo today but it could be ANYONE else tomorrow.

Even when we suspect that a man of God has erred we must always remember that our Lord Jesus Christ saved Peter from drowning in the Sea of Galilee BEFORE publicly rebuking him.

We must save him from drowning first and then we are free to rebuke him publicly. A real father does not first publicly rebuke and then save his son: he must first save his son and then publicly rebuke him.

In Mrs. Dakolo’s case, other than her own verbal account of events, we are yet to see such evidence. May God guide us.

Igbo leaders, groups meet in UK, strategise on culture, security Congress of Igbo Leaders (CIL), UK, has called on the Igbo worldwide to be ready at all times to confront the challenges militating against civilization and their survival in the 21st century.

Mr. Obi Okoli, Coordinator of the group, made the call at the 2019 Igbo Festival of Arts and Culture (IFAC), which ended on Saturday night in Edmonton, London.

Okoli, who addressed the congress which had over 110 cultural groups and organisations from Nigeria and parts of the world in attendance, said the event was an opportunity to unite and appraise the capabilities of the Igbo globally.

A statement issued by Ms Asa Blessing-Chijekwu, member of the festival publicity/media team, and made available to News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), quoted Okoli as saying that the Igbo were the “pride” of Nigeria.

He urged the Igbo to be ready at all times to confront challenges, foes of their culture and obstacles to ensure the protection of their children and unborn generations.

“As we celebrate our unique culture and tradition today, let us not forget that this places on our respective shoulders the burden of protecting our ancestral land, water, women, children, the elderly and our youths.

“In the earliest days of Igbo civilisation, our ancestors were concerned with promoting high ethical standards, values, norms that keep our societies together.

“They believed in the purity of mind, body and soul, the divinity of the gods, the sanctity of our villages, and the purity of our families; we must not abandon these unique ways.

“Today, as we battle the balance of civilisation, our culture and religion, we must be careful not to allow our people to lay in waste, dissolution and ambivalence

to falsehood.

“We must do all within our powers to pass all gifts that make us special to our children and generations unborn.

“Ndigbo must begin a careful journey of regression. This journey must review all we have embraced, imbibed to see if they are necessary, beneficial and relevant to our existence and survival,” Okoli said.

According to him, the country suffers because the Igbo lack knowledge of who they are.

He noted that culture and tradition were fundamental dynamics that defined thought, belief, attitude, behaviour, norms and values.

Okoli who highlighted the difference in every individual, emphasised the uniqueness in “Chukwuokike Abiama’s” (God’s) creation to protect and empower His people in times of adversity.

“There are lots of things that happen around us that we cannot control. We cannot stop earthquakes, we cannot prevent droughts, we cannot prevent conflicts, we cannot prevent hate; we cannot prevent sadness.

“However, we can prevent enslavement, divisions among us; so we can in unity forge ahead and confront our challenges, foes and obstacles.

“Ndigbo, we are a great nation, a unique people, a blessed and courageous people. These are our strengths and acknowledging these qualities will propel us towards greatness,” he added.

The festival was also an opportunity for various Igbo associations and groups to showcase their dance, drama, traditional wrestling and artefacts.

Trophies and certificates were presented to various groups and associations for outstanding performances during the festival which marked its 7th edition.

OUR POSITION Autonomy: The challenge before the legislature, Judiciary The Fourth Alteration to the 1999 Nigerian Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, (as amended) gave autonomy to the state legislature and Judiciary in a bill signed by President Muhammadu Buhari recently.

The amendment specifically meant the granting of financial autonomy and independence to Houses of Assembly and judiciary in the states. Hitherto, the funds allocated to them from the Federation Account go through the State Governments most of whom don’t transmit same to them. The law in essence, permits the funds due to the judiciary to be paid directly to the judiciary of those states, no more through the governors .

“And the funds standing in the credit of the Houses of Assembly in the states are now to be paid directly to the Houses of Assembly of the states for the benefit of the legislators and the management of the Houses of Assembly.”

It is unfortunate that since June last year when the bill was assented to, the law was not allowed to operate in the spirit and wordings it was meant to serve, due mainly to the awesome influences of State executive governors.

While commending the State governors’ pledge last week to implement full autonomy for state legislatures and the judiciary, it is essential to observe that it will strengthen democracy in the states. It will also promote accountability and transparency in governance.

Needless, however, to state that we abhor the roles played by the State governors in the last one year when this law was put in abeyance.

Now, that the new law will be made to operate with the support of State governors, we expect the State’s Legislature and Judiciary to demonstrate sense of maturity, prudence and accountability in the management of funds that will be allotted to them.

Nothing short of this will be justified in the eye of the members of the public who have in the last decade craved for the independence of Judiciary and State Houses of Assembly.

It is important to sound note of warning that the electorate who are distressed by the unjustifiable bogus salaries and allowances of national lawmakers will not welcome such unwholesome practices at the state level.

On the part of the States’ Judiciary, it is an opportunity for the heads of Court in the States, indeed the judges to allay the fears of State governors that even without a string of financial control over them attached, they can deliver justice.

Financial autonomy to the States Judiciary should therefore not be harmed by reckless spending and fraudulent financial malpractices by the judiciary officials. Attempt to engage on such reckless spending would further put the Judiciary into public disrepute and loss of confidence.

In conclusion, we plead with the states governors to stand by their words of promise and to allow the autonomy granted by the Fourth Alteration to the Constitution to the State Legislatures and Judiciary to operate. After all, they have sworn to uphold the Constitution.

Police debunk attack claims

by PDP, Atiku on witnesses Doosuur Iwambe, Abuja

The Zamfara state Police Command has refuted allegations of bandit attacking the witnesses who were billed to testify at the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal for the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.

The PDP and Atiku’s lawyers had told the presidential tribunal sitting in Abuja last week that the witnesses that were to testify before it from Zamfara state were attacked on their way to the nation’s capital.

However, the state command while debunking the claim in a statement issued by the Zamfara state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Muhammad

Shehu said that there was no recorded attack by bandits either on villages or on any person or group of persons travelling on any highway within the state.

Atiku’s lawyers had said the witnesses were attacked while travelling to Abuja to testify against the election of President Muhammadu Buhari.

Shehu, in the statement explained that “it is pertinent to categorically state that as far as the crime statistics of Zamfara state is concerned, there was no attack by bandits either on villages or on any person or group of persons travelling on any highway in the state.

“Since the inception of the ongoing peace and dialogue initiative in the state, attacks, kidnapping and other heinous crime in the state have been reduced drastically to about 98 per cent,

a situation that has restored peace and stability in the state.”

According to him, unprecedented achievements have been recorded through the rescue of over 100 persons kidnapped and held in captivity for months through the initiatives of the state Commissioner of Police, Usman Nagogo.

“Therefore, the command wishes to refute the entire story as misleading and a calculated attempt to undermine the current efforts of both the state government and the police to bring lasting peace for social and economic development in the state,” the statement added.

The command appealed to media organisations to verify their information before publication.

A suspected pickpocket arrested at the Computer Village,Ikeja, Lagos has confessed to the operatives of the Lagos state Rapid Response Squad that he makes at least N18, 000 daily selling stolen phones.

The suspect, Lawal Daodu, 31, was arrested on Friday around 5:00 p.m. when he unsuccessfully picked a phone from the pocket of a passerby in Ikeja.

Lawal, who had before his arrest stealthily picked two android phones from passersby was removing another android phone from the pocket of another victim when the phone incidentally fell from his hand thus drawing the attention of its owner.

He was promptly arrested by police officers stationed at Ikeja, Under Bridge and just as the suspect was explaining the source of the phones in his possession, one of his victims, who was trying to catch a glimpse of what was happening saw his phone in the suspect’s hands.

Lawal in his confession to the police explained that he operates in Computer Village, Ikeja and Tafawa Balewa Square, Lagos, narrating that “on Friday, I was in Computer Village as usual. I have picked two phones in the morning which I sold to my customers in Computer Village.

“In the afternoon, I resumed to pick few phones. I was picking the third one when the owner raised alarm which attracted the attention of the policemen. They arrested me and unfortunately, just as I was trying to prove my innocence, one of my victims identified his phone in my hand.

“I don’t operate every time. I go out at times twice in a week and I make at least N18, 000 from pick-pocketing. There were times I made more than that especially, when I pick expensive phones.

I started pick-pocketing in 2017 and I have never been arrested before.

I buy and sell cloth in Computer Village. I resort to pick-pocketing occasionally. I sell the phones to Afeez and Lanre. They are street guys in Computer Village. I was trained by Bello. I have not seen him in a long while now.”

He commended the legislator for giving thanks to God, noting that “there is nothing that comes to us without the blessings of God, but it is left for us to recognise it as children of God and give Him thanks.

“Being the first Ijaw man from Warri South-West to be a member of the Delta state House of Assembly, I am glad that you recognise that your victory came from God; men who recognise God in their lives never go down,” he stated, emphasising that “hold on steadfastly to the Lord to guide you; we come to the church for thanksgiving, that thanksgiving has to be sustained with the service you render to the people.”

Ooni urges FG to tackle insecurity, condoles Pa Fasoranti

Short News

The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi Ojaja II has condoled with the National Leader of the Pan -Yoruba socio-political group, Afenifere, Pa Reuben Fasoranti, over the killing of his daughter, Mrs. Funke Olakunrin on Friday.

In a statement signed by his Director of Media and Public Affairs, Comrade Moses Olafare, the Ife monarch described the killing of the daughter of the 93- year- old Pa Fasoranti along the Benin/Ore expressway as unfortunate and condemnable.

Oba Ogunwusi expressed huge dissatisfaction about the state of insecurity in the country and called on President Muhammadu Buhari to

The Governor of Osun state, Adegboyega Oyetola has urged the 2019 Osun pilgrims to Saudi Arabia to conduct themselves in line with the laws of the holy land.

The governor gave this admonition while speaking at the farewell meeting with the pilgrims to Mecca held at the weekend in Osogbo, the state capital.

He advised the 670 Osun pilgrims not to allow the distractions of trading and other personal interests spoil the bountiful rewards of hajj, which he described as one of the five pillars of Islam expected to be performed by every believing Muslim at least once in their lifetime.

The governor said: “I am glad to be here meeting with all the lucky pilgrims in the state of Osun journeying to the holy land of Mecca in Saudi Arabia to perform the 2019 hajj.

“Hajj is one of the five pillars of Islam and it is a rewarding ritual that every Muslim is expected to perform at least once in their life time.

I urge the pilgrims to focus on the primary purpose of embarking on the pilgrimage by worshiping Allah with all your hearts.

“Trading is not part of hajj. You should not allow some personal worldly distractions to prevent you from earning your rewards in full.

You are also expected to conduct yourselves in line with the laws of Saudi Arabia.

“Remember you are all from the land of virtue. I urge you all to allow the ethos of our dear state reflect in your conduct throughout your stay in the holy land.”

urgently put an end to the incessant kidnapping and robbery attacks which have led to the untimely deaths of many innocent people.

“Securing lives and properties of Nigerians is the primary responsibility of the government. What is happening to us in Yorubaland at the moment if not urgently curtailed by the government may force our people to come with a communal security approach which may not augur well for the unity of this country we have always laboured for.

“This is a disgusting payback to a man like Pa Fasoranti, who has lived his life for the stability of this country.

It is the height of terrorism which is highly condemnable, regardless of the tribes involved; no one deserves to be killed.

“It is sad to realize that Nigeria

that used to be safe and conducive for all forms of legitimate activities has been reduced to an insecure entity where innocent citizens now lose their lives and properties to some faceless miscreants on daily basis.

“This sad development is no doubt a wakeup call on the President Muhammadu Buhari led federal government, particularly, to be ruthless in the fight against terrorism in any form in order to restore the peace and sanity of the country so that our people will not be compelled to take the law in their own hands.

“I condole Pa Reuben Fasoranti, his immediate family and the Olakunrin family on this irreparable loss. I pray that the almighty Olodumare (God) will comfort and uphold the families,” the traditional ruler said.

Cleric charges Nigerian leaders live above board Samuel Luka, Bauchi

The North-East Zonal Chairman of the Christian Council of Nigeria (CCN), Rt. Rev. Musa Tula has charged Nigerian leaders to reshape their character, maintain integrity and live above board in both character and speech.

According to him, by so doing, they will promote good leadership that will be worthy of emulation by the followers.

The clergyman, who gave the charge yesterday at the inauguration ceremony of the newly elected executive council members of the CCN, opined that “considering that leadership is a huge task, leaders must be seen to be living above board in character and speech.”

Reading from the book of Joshua, chapter 1:8, Rev. Tula maintained that any leader who fails in remoulding his/her character and integrity is not worthy of being called a leader.

Rev. Tula, who is also the Anglican

Bishop of Bauchi Diocese, added that leadership is an ordination from God and must be held sacredly, particularly in the building of a united nation devoid of segregation and acrimony which he said are the vices that sets a nation backwards.

He said that leadership is not an easy task, but however, admonished anyone who finds himself or herself in the position of leadership not to abdicate the responsibility attached to the office, but must strive to excel so that at the end of their tenure such a person will be celebrated.

He advised the new executive council members of the state chapter of the Christian Council of Nigeria to be transparent, focused and success driven, pointing out that if at the end their tenure they cannot point at an achievement then they have wasted their time and resources.

The cleric also stressed the need for delegation of responsibility as one person cannot make meaningful

progress, adding that “when you delegate responsibility to each other, then you will succeed together.”

In his post- inauguration speech, the Chairman who was re-elected for three- year- tenure, Venerable Kenneth Okonkwo thanked the CCN members for reposing confidence in them and assured that the leadership will not fail them.

Venerable Okonkwo however, appealed to the members of the CCN in Bauchi state to see themselves as one united body of Christ, adding that constructive criticisms and positive comments will help the leaders to succeed.

Among the inaugurated new council members is Ishola Adeyemi, Bauchi state correspondent of the Tribune newspaper, who was elected as the public relations officer, Rev. Sunday Olobo, vice chairman, James Onwoke, secretary, A.U. Adodo, treasurer, Rev. Collins David, financial secretary and Sunday Friday as the assistant secretary.

Ekiti state Governor, Kayode Fayemi has said the transfer of schools back to the missions is a policy of his government to further improve the quality of education in the state.

The governor said the first set of schools to be returned to the missions will be announced during the commencement of the next academic session in September.

Gov. Fayemi made this known while hosting the Prelate of the Methodist Church of Nigeria, His Eminence, Dr. Samuel Chukwuemeka Uche in his office in Ado Ekiti.

He said the return of the schools will further stamp the administration’s respect for values, promising that government will work out an efficient and workable model as practised in other states where schools have been transferred back to the missions.

Fayemi further said that the state government will pay teachers and give grants to the schools while the missions will take care of administration.

On security, the governor assured that the measures put in place by his administration to tackle farmers -herders clash and crime in the state will be stepped up so that the peaceful disposition of the state will be sustained.

He reiterated that anyone caught engaging in any criminal act will be made to face the consequences and treated as a criminal irrespective of the tribe.

Speaking earlier, the Methodist prelate said the purpose of his visit was to pray for the governor and the state, describing Gov. Fayemi as a good product that the state is lucky to have judging from his antecedents in his first term as governor and as minister.

He pleaded for the transfer of some Methodist schools in the state back to the mission so that Godly morals will further be instilled in the students.

Kwara university didn’t miss accreditation in last 10 years, says VC Kehinde Akinpelu, Ilorin The outgoing Vice Chancellor of the Kwara state University, Malete, Professor Abdulrasheed Na’Allah, has restated his commitment to continue to uphold quality leadership style towards ensuring that Nigeria’s educational system continues to get adequate attention.

He stated this in an interactive session with journalists in Ilorin, the Kwara state capital and commended media practitioners in the state for the support given to him throughout his 10- year- tenure as the pioneer vice chancellor of the institution.

Prof. Na’Allah, who is also the new vice chancellor of the University of Abuja, recalled how the university started its journey, stressing that the 10- year journey witnessed uninterrupted academic calendar which made the institution to remain unique globally.

“We have serious respect for consistent academic calendar and we are known globally for this quality. We’ve produced many quality graduates who are making waves globally in different professions while many others are furthering their studies across the world.

“We are the first public university in Nigeria to adopt entrepreneurship studies as a compulsory course in order to make our graduates job providers rather than being job seekers.

“During the last international conference on entrepreneurship and innovation, we were able to attract a philanthropist and leading indigenous manufacturer, to establish an endowment fund to support our directorate of entrepreneurial skill acquisition for our students as start up capital for our student. The fund has been named Alhaji Kamoru Yusuf Emdownment Fund.

g12 13 lives lost to flood in 3yrs - FEMA ...As FCTA cautions against indiscriminate dumping of refuse in drainages

Permanent Secretary, FCTA, Sir Chinyeaka Ohaa (3rd right), DG FEMA Abbass Idriss (4th right) and officials of fema and the area councils inspecting the newly completed Ashara-Wako bridge.

FCTA moves to curb advertisements, signage leakages ...Says DOAS lost N18bn in 6yrs

Stories: Ukpono Ukpong, Abuja The Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA), has disclosed plans to partner the Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC), to curb the leakages associated with the outdoor advertisement and signage activities in the nation’s capital.

Addressing journalists shortly after meeting with the AMAC Chairman, Hon. Abdullahi Candido

on how to synergize to stop the leakages, the Director, Department of Outdoor Advertisement and Signage (DOAS), in the Federal Capital Territory, Babagana Adam revealed that the department has lost at least, 18 billion Naira in six years from clients and business “We have lost about 3 billion naira each year and when you multiply it times six years its 18 billion naira have been lost.

“Imagine how many schools, roads, poutry farms, live stock farms and ICT centres, that would

have been built with this money. So we have lost quite alot of money.

“With this new development now, I don’t want to look at what we are lossing, I will rather love that we strategize and synergize to put a stop to the money leakages.”

On his part, the AMAC Chairman expressed optimism that with the collaboration between FCT and AMAC, which he described as long overdue, available resources would be harnessed to provide services to the people as well as help stop double payment by the

clients.

“In the last three years, it has not been too good, because we all lost out, the reasons why we must collaborate and have a new beginning to cement the relationship. We must harmonized to stop double payment by the clients.”

While pledging the support of the council, he said “where Area Councils are undermined are areas that we are frowning at, Now that we are working together, I believe it will be understood.

FCTA commences demolition of illegal structures at Lokogoma district ...Vows to prosecute defaulting developers At the expiration of the two-week ultimatum issued to residents of Lokogoma District to remove houses built on waterways, road corridors, high tension wire and sewer lines, the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA), has made true their intention to demolish such buildings which has caused the lost of lives and properties worth millions Naira.

According to the Director, Department of Development Control, Mukhtar Galadima, the demolition exercise which began last week at IPENT II Estate of the District will last for one month due to the difficult terrain their equipment have to navigate through.

He disclosed that a total of 121

structures including buildings, fences and illegal attachments are to be removed. However, Daily Times gathered that not less than 300 structures had been marked for demolition in various estates in Lokogoma.

Speaking further, he revealed that at the appropriate time, the Administration will take legal action against offending developers including compelling them to pay compensation to those whose properties were affected.

Galadima blamed the whole process on the developers whom he said ignored warnings to stop work, as well as the demolition notices which was long served before the enforcement began.

“The Department is working

very closely with the Legal Secretariat of the FCTA to consider its legal options. What is however certain, is that the offending developers will not go scot-free.” Said Galadima He also revealed that the exercise will further be carried out in other mass housing districts of Kafe and karsana where such violations also exist.

It could be recalled that the FCT Permanent Secretary, Sir Chinyeaka Ohaa, had paid an unscheduled visit to the Lokogoma District, an area through which Rivers Wumba and Kabusa navigate through late last month following a heavy rainfall which reportedly claimed one life due to several houses constructed on flood plains and

water channels by developers.

He therefore gave a two week notice for all structures on flood plains and water channels to be removed by the Department of Development Control.

“We can’t continue to see people dying, we must get those structures demolished, and we can’t continue to take excuses.

“This is a clear case of violation by developers, some of these houses were built without approvals and in spite of all claims, we can’t allow these because life is paramount.”

Following series of meetings with the residents and an extensive public enlightenment campaign, residents of the various estates endorsed the action by the FCTA.

The Director General, FCT Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), Abbas Idriss, has said that between 2017 and 2019 at least 13 people have lost their lives due to flooding in the Federal Capital Territory.

He disclosed this recently during the Flag off of the 2019 Assessment of Flood Prone Areas in the six Area Council of the FCT at Ashara-Wako in Kwali Area Council.

He disclosed that 5 lives were lost to flood in 2017 in the Federal Capital Territory, 7 lives were also lost in 2018, out of which two were children that got drowned while attempting to swim in a river while one life has so far been lost to a flood incident in this year.

While expressing delight over government’s intervention in restoring the Walko-Ashara link bridge between Abaji and Kwali Area Council which hitherto was cut off by flooding, he urged the community leaders to take very seriously the flood preventive programmes introduced by government and ensure compliance with sensitization messages.

He called for attitudinal change towards the environment, saying it is only by so doing that the dangers of flooding will be mitigated in the FCT. “It is therefore the responsibility of community leaders to ensure compliance to sensitization messages, especially with regards to proper waste disposal and avoidance of building or farming on waterways, while parents should also advise their children against risky behaviours such as swimming during the raining season when the water level is high.” He said Similarly, the Permanent Secretary, Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA), Sir Chinyeaka Ohaa, called on residents to desist from dumping refuse in drainage channels, farming on river banks as well as building on water ways.

Sir Ohaa who blamed the attitude of residents for the reoccurring flooding incidents in the FCT, he particularly, condemned the activities of estate developers who deliberately contravene provisions of the master plan and build houses on flood plains and natural courses and channels of rivers.

Sir Ohaa warned residents against further violation of these laid down environmental and development laws in the FCT, saying that the FCTA will not relent on its plan to remove houses built on waterways.

He added that potential buyers or renters of properties in the FCT should always carry out due diligence and find out from the relevant authorities in the FCTA if the developers have met the masterplan requirements before taking possession of properties.

His words” “Find out from the relevant authorities in the FCTA if developers have met the masterplan requirements before building houses. This simple action could save lives and properties”.

The Permanent Secretary equally called on traditional rulers in the FCT and other stakeholders to support the various actions of government in this regard and also educate their subjects on the necessity of these actions.

He also appealed to the media to emphasize safety issues, especially human activities which increase vulnerability to flooding and other forms of disaster, as part of their corporate social responsibilities.

Speaking on the Gangara/Yaba road project in the Abaji and Kwali Area Councils, contracts of which has been awarded, Sir Ohaa assured thatthe FCT Administration will ensure that the project is completed on schedule.

Also speaking at the occasion, the Chairman, Kwali Area Council, Danladi Chiya, thanked the FCT Permanent Secretary for his immense support to the FCT Area Councils.

He also appreciated FEMA for their quick intervention in the restoration of the AsharaWalko bridge, linking Kwali and Abaji Area Councils which was destroyed by flood.

Obiano launches 2019 Farming season programme Stories by John Ndu, Awka Anambra State Governor, Chief Willie Obiano, has launched the 2019 Farming Season at the Alex Ekwueme Square, Awka.

The theme, “Cluster development: A Vehicle for Sustainable Agriculture” is to consolidate on the achievements of the present administration in Agriculture.

This year’s event witnessed distribution of inputs to small scale farmers, launching of the Anambra Farmers Shop Initiative and flag off of the Apiculture or Honey Bee Farming Programme.

Others include launching of the Smart Weather Soldiers Initiative as well as the Youths in Agriculture programme.

Also at the event was re-introduction of the ‘Ugbo Umu-akwukwo’ or School Farm programme into primary and secondary schools, to inculcate agricultural skills early in our school children.

Governor Obiano disclosed that his administration had recorded excellence in agriculture since his assumption of office.

It would be recalled that rice production in Anambra State had risen from 80,000 metric tonnes in 2014 to 440,000 metric tonnes in 2018.

He said: “Our projection for this planting season is to produce 475,547

metric tons of rice. Similarly, Cassava production rose from 15,324 metric tons when I stepped in to 1,236,409 metric tons in 2018.

“Now we are projecting a cassava output of 2,060, 682 metric tonnes in 2019. Maize production stood at 22,000 metric tonnes last season and we are projecting an output of 63, 255 metric tonnes of maize for this season.

“The same thing applies to vegetables where we projected 96,480 metric tonnes last season but this season we are projecting 321,600 metric tonnes. Our projection for yam this year is 83,600 metric tonnes.

“All these are clear indications that our vision to place Anambra State in the Top-3 of agricultural production

in Nigeria is firmly on course,” the Governor added.

Gov Obiano regretted the scale of the havoc wrecked by the flood as well as the clashes between herdsmen and farmers in the last farming season.

Also speaking, Commissioner for Agriculture, Mr. Nnamdi Onukwuba, stated that the government had trained various youths in Agriculture.

Onukwuba noted that the state’s participation in the IFAD-Assisted Value Chain Development Programme had continued to be of high benefits to the state.

He said: “On assumption of duty within the last twenty-four hours, I have been fully briefed on a few criminal and security challenges in the state at the moment. These include disputes over land, the menace of one chance robbery gangs, robbery, kidnapping and of course cultism.

“In keeping with the vision of the InspectorGeneral of Police (IGP), IGP Mohammed Abubakar Adamu NPM, mni to ‘make Nigeria safer and more secure for economic development and growth…’, the Command under my watch shall take a zero tolerance stance on crime.

“Therefore, all our efforts and energies shall be mobilised and deployed towards the prevention of crimes; and the successful apprehension of criminals that would test our resolve.

“Another menace is the issue of fake news which has the capacity to cause widespread disaffection, chaos, violence or disruption of

the public peace.

“May I use this medium to warn the purveyors of such news through whatever means to desist henceforth; or face the full wrath of the law whenever they are apprehended.

“Furthermore, I am not unmindful of other challenges bordering on professional misconduct on the part of our officers and men such as extortion, unlawful/over detention and incivility to members of the Public among others.

“In this vein, I urge all personnel of the Command to eschew corruption and indiscipline.

“The Command will sustain the existing inter-agency collaboration and improve our respect for the Rule of Law and fundamental Human Rights in accordance with international best practices.

While commending the state government for its support to the police command, CP Abang, extolled the achievements of the immediate past Commissioner of Police, CP Dan Daura Mustapha, assuring to consolidate his efforts.

Senator representing Anambra Central Senatorial District, Senator Uche Ekwunife, has congratulated Airpeace Airlines, Nigeria’s largest domestic carrier, on the successful inception of their international flight route from Lagos Nigeria, to Dubai, UAE on Saturday, July 6, 2019.

Speaking to journalists at a reception organised by Airpeace at the arrival wing of Dubai International Airport Shajar, Senator Ekwunife said that her “joy knew no bounds as she was opportune to be part of this historic event.

“I am very proud of this remarkable achievement by Airpeace, as it shows their corporate doggedness and their determination to succeed in their business against all odds,” she stated.

Senator Ekwunife was one of the passengers on this maiden Airpeace flight from Nigeria to Dubai, and described her experience on the flight as “very pleasant, peaceful and convenient”. She said: “The flight duration actually seemed shorter than all other flights I have taken to Dubai. Their prices are very competitive and affordable, and their services compare favourably with other international airlines. Above all, I believe that as Nigerians, we have an obligation to patronise our own local businesses to enable them grow and be in business.

“One of the ways to discourage capital flight from Nigeria is to support our local businesses and encourage them to succeed in our difficult and competitive environment. This is the reason why I decided to join Airpeace on this maiden flight, to support Airpeace, and stand in solidarity with them on this momentous occasion”.

While commending the management and staff of Airpeace for this “bold and progressive step” Senator Ekwunife urged all Nigerians to support airline in sustaining this novel initiative by making sure they henceforth fly with Airpeace whenever they are traveling to Dubai.

According to Senator Ekwunife, “Whoever flies Airpeace will find Peace”!

Aguleri community boils as hoodlums unleash terror on Church teacher, gardener

St. Peters Anglican Church Aguleri in Anambra-East local government Area of Anambra State was a victim of an horror that occurred in the wee hours of the morning last week when some unknown dare-devils found their way into the church compound and unleashed terror and mayhem on the catechist and gardener of the church leaving both victims to grapple between life and death.

Information had it that the hoodlums neither came to steal nor to dispossess them off their belongings but the mission was to capture and kill the resident priest whom they couldn’t get due to their inability to find their way to his apartment upstairs even though they had placed a ladder on the wall of the one-storeyed building to achieve their set target.

The church teacher, Mr. Christopher Chukwu, who had come out in the dead of the night to ease himself, was said to have seen strange flashlights in the church premises and proceeded towards the direction of the light to ascertain what it was only for the hoodlums to pounce on him using matchets and other weapons on him. His cry for help however alerted the resident priest Rev. Akachukwu Ikedilo and the gardener one, Mr. Mathew Nwude, who was said to have suffered the same fate in a bid to rescue the catechist from the marauders.

Rev. Akachukwu Ikedilo, who narrated the ordeal to our correspondent, said that it was the church teacher and the gardener who encountered the hoodlums and that from what he was told the miscreants cut him with an axe and that in a bid to escape the hoodlums inflicted more injuries on him and the gardener.

He said that when he came down to ascertain what happened, the criminals had fled and left the church teacher and the gardener in a pool of blood.

The President-General Aguleri Community Assembly, Chief Barr. Hipo Onwuegbuke, who also narrated the sad event to our correspondent in Aguleri, recalled that he got a distress call in the wee hours of last week Wednesday morning at about 3:45 am from one of their relatives one Joe Nwokedi who lives close to St. Peters Anglican Church Aguleri that the church was under siege by hoodlums.

The President-General said he immediately alerted the police and local vigilantes who stormed the church premises just in time but unfortunately the miscreants had escaped through Umueri, a neighbouring community.

The PG said the police and local vigilante operatives saw the ladder with which the hoodlums wanted to climb to get to the resident priest.

He said: “What I was told was that the catechist who lives downstairs came out to ease himself and saw two men and went there and said “what are you people doing here” and they started matcheting him. The man is still in the hospital receiving treatment as we speak now. We have gone to police and made statements and the Bishop of the Diocese is also involved in this matter. “ Onwuegbuke however opined that he was flabbergasted when the Police Public Relations Officer of the Anambra State Command alleged in a report that the horrible event that occurred at St. Peters Anglican Church Aguleri was an attempted armed-banditry, wondering why the police should hold such position in a sensitive matter of such magnitude even though he said it falls within the purview of the police to conduct investigations and come up with reliable information.

The President-General noted that in spite of the ugly episode of last week Wednesday at St. Peters Anglican Church Aguleri, vigilante operatives foiled another attack on the same church on Thursday 4th July at about 2 am.

Ondo APC challenges security agencies on poor security in Nigeria, condoles with Pa Fasoranti The Ondo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has challenged the nation’s security agencies to do more in ensuring the safety and security of the Nigerian people, saying that it is in doing this that they would be delivering on the mandate handed over to them.

The APC said this while condoling with the leader of the Yoruba social political organisation, Afenifere and elder statesman, Pa Reuben Fasoranti, over the gruesome murder of his daughter, Mrs Funke Olakunri, by armed bandits.

The party in a statement signed by the state Publicity Secretary, Mr. Alex Kalejaye , said it was saddened by the development, noting that, “It is our belief that the nonagenarian deserves a better deal from a society he served with all vigour and commitment. Only a divine consolation could tranquilize the devastating effect created by the wicked act.

“The State chapter is hopeful that the needless killing of Mrs. Olukunrin would trigger a deeper duty-bound concern among security stakeholders to fish out the agents of the harbingers of these unimaginable pains.

“We also expect security agencies to do more in the area of surveillance and intelligence gathering to justify governments’ monthly investments on security concerns.

“It is also important to say that security agencies should do their utmost to ensure that other hapless souls languishing in various evil camps are liberated. Travelling on our highways should be made safer.

“We wish to remind all stakeholders that security is pivotal to the overall wellbeing of any society. Infrastructural development and efforts on economy can only add value if citizens are well secured,” the Ondo APC spokesman said.

Speakers’ chairman, Obasa commends NASS on intervention in Edo, Bauchi assembly crises Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly and Chairman, Conference of Speakers of State Legislatures of Nigeria, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa, has commended the National Assembly (NASS) for its intervention aimed at resolving the crises rocking the Edo and Bauchi state Houses of Assembly.

Obasa, in a statement he personally issued on Sunday in Lagos said the Conference of Speakers of State Legislatures of Nigeria welcomed the recent resolution of the Senate and the House of Representatives to intervene in the squabble at the state assemblies.

According to him, the speakers’ conference is not concerned about who becomes the speaker of a state assembly, but the process through which such an individual emerges should be in line with the rule of law.

He added that, “Every legislature in Nigeria has a House rule that must be followed by members and without undue external interference.

“The Nigerian constitution stipulates how the legislative arm of government should function as well as the role of its members.

“We stand by our position not to recognise any speaker that does not emerge following the business rules of the affected House of Assembly.

“We also call on the ruling political parties in Edo and Bauchi to step into

Obasa

the crises in the states for democracy to thrive,” he said.

Obasa however appealed to governors Godwin Obaseki and Bala Mohammed of Edo and Bauchi states, respectively, to know their limits in relation to the other arms of government in their respective states as dictated by the constitution.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the Senate and the House of Representatives recently set up committees to investigate the crisis that has affected the effective take-off of legislative activities in the Edo State House of Assembly.

The 13-member ad-hoc committee of the House of Representatives is chaired by Abdulrazak Namdas (APC-Adamawa) while that of the Senate is headed by Aliyu Sabi (APCNiger).

Nigeria’s rising debt profile: Buhari group tackles Atiku, tells him to stick to what he knows Stories by Patrick Okohue The Buhari Media Organisation (BMO) has lashed out at former Vice President and Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the last election, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar over his recent comments on the country’s debt profile, describing the comments as a clear example of a person dabbling into a matter beyond his pay grade.

The group said in a statement that it is obvious from the manner Atiku jumped on a statement released by the Debt Management Office (DMO)on “Nigeria’s Total Public Debt Portfolio as at March 31, 2019”, that Atiku only wanted to make political gains without fully digesting the document.

BMO in the statement signed by its Chairman, Niyi Akinsiju and Secretary, Cassidy Madueke, said that Atiku Abubakar has again shown that he lacks a basic understanding of economics and governance despite spending eight years as a Vice President.

The statement reads, “We have seen the latest position of the former Vice President on the nation’s debt profile and how he sought to trivialise it in order to whip up sentiments. We are however surprised that he does not know that a nation’s debt portfolio cannot be discussed in isolation of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), especially in terms of income and national assets.

“People who understand basic economics would tell you that at 19% of GDP, Nigeria’s borrowing is quite low when compared to countries like South Africa, Brazil, Ghana and Angola, but Atiku Abubakar is opting to play to the gallery with beer parlour analysis couched in flowery language.

“It is even a far cry from the 25% debt-to-GDP benchmark set by the Nigerian authorities.

“One other thing that the former VP showed little understanding of is the difference between public and federal government debt “The debt stock document noted that the federal government owes N13.1 tn domestically, while the states and the FCT owe N3.97 tn but this means nothing to an opposition element that needs to

Atiku

hang on to any straw to be on the front pages of the media.

“And just like the DMO said, and as the government has affirmed through Vice President Yemi Osinbajo even before now, the debt stock has risen but unlike what the PDP Presidential candidate that has yet to come to terms with his electoral loss wants Nigerians to believe, it has nothing to do with profligate spending.

“A large chunk of the debt is tied to projects and Nigerians could easily see the impact of Sukuk bond on the hundreds of kilometres of roads under construction or that are being rehabilitated. This is aside from the nationwide railway project that is bound to touch every state of the federation before the end of the President’s second term in office,” it said.

The group also said it found it laughable that Atiku suggested that the Buhari administration used a chunk of the debts on Trader Moni scheme as well as to pay salaries “We know for a fact that Nigeria has long passed the era where she had to borrow to pay salaries, as former Finance minister Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala attested to in 2014. That was a period the country was earning so much as a result of higher crude oil prices but racked up an external debt stock of $63bn (about N12.5trn).

“It is instructive that Atiku alluded to the debt relief Nigeria got in 2006 which he surreptitiously claimed credit for but he also needs to be reminded, in case he forgot, that

Nigeria earned approximately N87tn between 1999 and 2015 yet his party left behind a debt stock as high as almost $70bn and a country with major infrastructure deficit that a government that is earning far less is working hard to plug.

“In fact, the country earned N51tn in the four-year period from 2010 to 2015 but the then Jonathan administration cannot point at a 100-kilometre motorable road or a fully completed infrastructural project that was handed over to the Buhari government.

“And by attacking one of President Buhari’s social welfare schemes, Trader Moni, in his illconceived criticism, Atiku has once again shown his disdain for the Nigerian masses. How could an individual that has tried, thrice but failed, to be President be so scornful of a group of people whom this administration is working so hard to lift out of a poverty threshold that successive PDP administrations literally forced them into?

“Here is an initiative that is part of a larger National Social Investment Programme (N-SIP) that is set to touch the lives of more than twelve million people in virtually all the states of the federation and the FCT. “In reality, Atiku’s repeated tirade against SIP initiatives should not come as a surprise to many people because the former Vice President is part of an exclusive category of ‘nouveau riche’ who used their privileged positions to amass wealth,” the pro-Buhari group added.

TUC demands halt to victimisation, redundancy of Nigerian workers Joy Obakeye The Trade Union Congress of Nigeria, (TUC) has demanded a stop to the victimisation of Nigerian workers through unjust appraisals and illegal redundancy.

The newly elected President of TUC, Comrade Quadri Olaleye, made the assertion in Lagos while speaking with the newsmen over the weekend.

He said, “We have also identified that many companies including public sectors have deliberately decided not to fund capacity building programs of their workforce with a view to engage in outsourcing.”

“We, therefore, demand to make equitable laws and policies, ensuring their vigilant enforcement, regulating labour-outsourcing companies and ensuring access to justice for aggrieved workers, it is possible to palliate its cruel impact on the workforce. Beyond this, the government must ensure that employers engage in training and retraining of their staff for effective production.”

Olaleye noted that these unjust appraisals are often carried with a view to laying off workers out-rightly or to achieve redundancy.

“We have also observed that labour leaders are often the targets of these employers with a view to whittle down the activities of the union.”

He lamented that the Nigerian construction industry was grossly affected by the issue of technology transfer, which is critical in a developing country, as expatriates, who are supposed to be employed where local employees lack capacity, have taken jobs where Nigerians have competent for.

According to the TUC president, “the ratio of the expatriate to local senior staff in some multinational companies in Nigeria is “as high as 10:1.

Olaleye, however, commended the federal government for signing the African Continental Free Trade Agreement, (AfCFTA), he added, “It is also important to state here without any ambiguity that no serious country signs such agreement and goes to sleep.”

Dana Air apologises to passengers over flight disruptions Chukwuemeke Iwelunmo Dana Air has apologized to its customers over the disruption of their flights on different routes on Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

The airline in a statement issued by its media and Communications Manager, Kingsley Ezenwa said some of the airline’s scheduled flights were disrupted due to nose steering lock on one of its Abuja to Lagos flight which also made the airline to ground the aircraft in line with its strict safety standards.

“On Thursday, July 11 2019, one of our Lagos Abuja flight developed a nose wheel issue upon Landing in Abuja and after a thorough assessment by our team of engineers, we decided to ground the aircraft in line with our strict stance on safety.

Although a nose steering lock is not a defect but a mechanism to prevent damage on steering cylinder and torque link during the nose wheel turning greater than 82 (+/- 2) degrees.

The statement added: “We sincerely wish to apologize to our guest for the delays occasioned by this incident and to also assure them that their safety comes first before any consideration in our daily operations”.

The said aircraft has however, been flown to Lagos for the airline’s engineers to conduct a full scale checks.

The statement went further to say that: “In the interim, we have made proper arrangements with our partner airlines to ferry our guests to their various destinations together with other serviceable aircraft in our fleet.”

How $12bn Dangote Refinery will transform Africa’s economy - Stakeholders Motolani Oseni With a wobbling Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of $1.8 trillion, countries in Sub-Saharan Africa is on the cusp of economic transformation, with the imminent coming on-stream of the $12 billion Dangote refinery and petrochemicals complex.

The region is expected to be the direct beneficiaries of the 650,000 barrels-per-day refinery as the project is expected to drastically reduce the countries’ fuel import majorly from Europe with an expected impact on foreign exchange outflows.

These are part of the submissions by oil and gas stakeholders at this year’s Ghana International Petroleum Conference (GhIPCON) in Accra, Ghana themed ‘Regional Collaboration; A Catalyst for Transformation’, which was organised by the country’s Ministry of Energy and the National Petroleum Authority.

Sub-Saharan Africa presently boasts of over 132 trillion barrels of proven oil reserves, more than eight per cent of the world’s supply. Yet, it exports most of this oil to overseas

refineries; which has for long denied the region of the huge opportunity for economic transformation.

The inability of sub-Saharan African countries to locally refine its oil has taken a huge toll on their economies, with 48.5 per cent of the region’s population living below $1.25 per day and life expectancy hovering at 56 years.

However, in this context, the African region, whose economic growth has combined national output equivalent to the GDP of Spain would be a major beneficiary of the economic transformation arising from the operation of the world largest single train refinery in the world being built in Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos Nigeria by Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote.

Group Executive Director, Strategy, Capital Projects & Portfolio Development, Devakumar Edwin said at the conference that the refinery would soon come on stream to the benefit of the region whose economy had largely depended on imports from Europe and the west, and that the Dangote refinery will foster regional harmonisation in the distribution of cleaner petroleum

products in West Africa.

Edwin, who was represented by the Technical Adviser to the President of Dangote Group on Refinery and Petrochemicals, Engr.

Babajide Soyode expressed the belief that the completion of Dangote Refinery and other modular refineries projects across West Africa, would lead to the integration of the downstream industries, and stabilise the prices of petroleum products across the African sub-region.

He stressed the need for other investors in West Africa to emulate the investment drive of Aliko Dangote in the downstream petroleum sector and make the sub-region an exporter of refined products.

Edwin also urged investors in sub-Saharan Africa to take the bull by the horn by investing in the downstream sector. “If Dangote can do it, any investor can do it. Dangote has not waited for the government to regulate the downstream sector before starting the construction of the refinery.

“We don’t need foreign investors to turn around our downstream sector. African investors should be able to emulate Dangote and revive

the African downstream petroleum industry,” he added.

He assured the stakeholders that the refinery is designed to process multiple grades of domestic and foreign crude, which can be converted into high-quality gasoline, diesel, kerosene, and aviation fuels that meet Euro V emissions specifications.

To bridge this gap and ensure cleaner fuel in the sub-region, Dangote Oil Refinery is being designed to accommodate multiple grades of domestic and foreign crude, and process them into highquality petrol, diesel, kerosene, and aviation fuels that would meet Euro V emissions’ specifications, plus polypropylene. The facility, according to him, would be integrated with a petrochemical unit that will produce polypropylene and fertilisers.

Edwin said Nigeria would soon become the largest exporter of fertiliser in Africa as the Dangote Fertiliser Company is set to commence full production. According to him, pre-commissioning activities have started while construction work is still on-going at the Dangote Refinery site.

Bauchi Gov’s wife commends Fidelity Bank over free medical outreach Temitope Adebayo

Wife of Bauchi State Governor, Hajiya Aisha Bala Mohammad, has commended Fidelity Bank for providing free medical outreach to 1,000 people in Misau Local Government Area of Bauchi State, as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives.

The outreach was organised by the Al-Muhibbah Foundation in collaboration with staff members of the bank.

Addressing beneficiaries in Misua, Mrs Mohammad urged them to regularly check their health status in order to reduce cases of diabetes, cancer, hepatitis, high blood pressure, amongst

other ailments.

She pointed out that malnutrition and lack of access to health facilities are also some of the peculiar problems that need to be addressed in the state.

The outreach which held from June 20 – 21, 2019 at the Misau Secretariat office provided the Fidelity Family with an opportunity to connect with the people of Misau community.

Driven purely by altruistic values and an innate desire to make the world a better place, Bauchi Branch staff pulled their resources together to provide free qualitative healthcare to the people.

Working under the auspices

of the Fidelity Helping Hands Programme (FHHP), the Bank partnered with Bridge Medical & Consult Services Limited, to provide a wide variety of medical tests and prescription drugs that would help promote the general health and wellbeing of members of Misau community. Targeted specifically at Women and the Girl Child, the outreach featured free cervical cancer screening, blood pressure check, eye and dental checkup, Body Mass Index (BMI), HIV and Hepatitis test, amongst others.

Children also benefited from other medical services such as immunization, deworming, eye and dental care, as well as HIV/

AIDS tests, etc.

The Fidelity Bank CEO, Nnamdi Okonkwo, expressed his appreciation at the massive turn out of people at the outreach.

Okonkwo, who was represented by the Head, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), Chris Nnakwe, said the bank was in the business of transforming lives.

“As much as the world has made significant progress in looking for the solution to health issues, basic access to healthcare remains a challenge in Africa.

Fidelity Bank has invested in the Health sector through infrastructural development, medical outreach and others”, he added.

How external debts gulped N33.9bn from Nigeria’s States revenue allocations …as external debt hits N24.9trn in Q1

Motolani Oseni Due to high external debts by the state governments, a whopping sum of N33.9 billion has been deducted from the revenue disbursement to states by the Federation Account Allocation Committee (FAAC) in one year.

This is even as the nation’s debt profile hit a new high of N24.9 trillion in March 2019, the analysis of reports of revenue disbursement by FAAC, which was obtained from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) has revealed.

The NBS data showed that the sum of N33.9 billion was deducted from monthly allocation entitled to states between June 2018 and May 2019.

This is believed to be deductions in

the form of loan servicing obtained from external sources.

Further breakdown of the data revealed that Lagos State parted with the highest amount of N10.3 billion from its allocation, as the State’s domestic debt stock, is the biggest of all, rising to N542 billion in March 2019.

Kaduna State ranks third, with the sum of N2.28 billion deducted, leaving the State with an estimated N93 billion debt profile.

Cross River follows Kaduna slowly, having repaid N2.1 billion debt in the last one year, with N167 billion in debt stock.

Oyo, Rivers, Osun and Katsina all repaid above N1 billion each within the period.

Just recently, the Debt Management

Office (DMO) released the country’s debt stock data and the report showed that only domestics debts accruing to States Governments rose to N3.97 trillion in March 2019. On the other hand, a proportion of the total N7.8 trillion total external debt is still accruable to the states.

Recent reports on FAAC disbursement has revealed some worrying trends, as revenue allocation declined by N1.3 billion in May 2019.

In April, a total of N617.5 billion was disbursed, while the disbursement dropped to N616.2 billion in May 2019.

This means that while states’ allocations are depleting, a portion of their monthly allocation constantly bookmarked to service debt.

Debt management: Specifically,

loans or debt granted to countries and states come with terms or conditions which may include cash to cover repayment of interest and principal on a debt for a particular period.

Debt can be flexible or otherwise, with a wide choice of financial conditions that are specifically tailored to meet a country’s overall debt management strategy.

Nigeria’s debt category is largely dominated by 41 per cent of multilateral and bilateral sources from the World Bank, Bank of China, the African Development Bank and so on.

In order to manage the debt, billions are periodically subtracted from both States and the Federal Government in the form of debt servicing being collected.

Sterling bank set to launch One Force, trains paramilitary Motolani Oseni Upholding its commitment to creating social good for communities across the country, Sterling Bank hosted a financial and retirement planning seminar for serving members of the armed forces and paramilitary at the National Defense College in Abuja on Wednesday, 10th July 2019.

The well-attended the seminar was powered by One Force; the bank’s value

proposition for enhancing the welfare and dignity of members of the armed forces and paramilitary. It guarantees priority service, low interest rates and fee-free banking services for serving and ex-servicemen and women.

Addressing attendees drawn from the Nigerian Army, Navy, Air Force, Police, Fire Service and eight other establishments, Emmanuel Emefienim, Executive Director, Institutional Banking, Sterling Bank, said his bank has a long and rich heritage of creating

social good and solving problems through innovative products and services.

“At Sterling, our approach is to find those who hold the key to solving specific problems and to provide solutions that can solve these problems to them. We are leading efforts to solve national problems in the health, education, agriculture, energy and transport sectors, among others. And we are here today partnering the armed forces and paramilitary to offer

solutions that will create a future of shared prosperity for all its members across Nigeria.

“Men and women of armed forces and paramilitary risk their lives everyday to protect our homes, offices and the country. In appreciation of the liberties guaranteed by serving and retired members of the armed forces and paramilitary which are often taken for granted, Sterling Bank will launch One Force in a few weeks to serve them differently”, Emmanuel disclosed.

NAMA begins installation of prefabricated pilot joint briefing offices Chukwuemeke Iwelunmo Efforts by the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA) to digitalise, the nation’s aeronautical information service (AIS) have received a boost as the agency has commenced the installation of a prefabricated pilot joint briefing offices nationwide.

The installation team which has completed work at Murtala Mohammed International Airport Lagos has proceeded to another airport and is expected to

continue the installation in 21 airports and three aerodromes nationwide.

When operational, the prefabricated offices will provide a one-stop-shop at the airside where crew members can obtain AIS briefing, meteorological information and make necessary payments at a single point in compliance with the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Standard and Recommended Practices (SARPs).

The facility will also accommodate the equipment room for the VSAT network which is simultaneously being installed by the contractor.

Speaking on this development, the Managing Director of NAMA, Capt. Fola Akinkuotu said this was part of continuous efforts by the agency to enhance seamless and sustainable communication in the upper airspace, adding that the Satellite Lineup for the VSAT node at NAMA headquarters in Lagos will be completed within the week, while that of Abuja, Port Harcourt and other stations would follow in the next couple of days.

The NAMA boss revealed that the installation of 14 new Very High Frequency (VHF) radio sites which will ride on the

new VSAT network was to commence simultaneously with these installations, even as he expressed gratitude to the Federal Government for its support and intervention leading to the final clearance of the agency’s VSAT equipment at the Apapa port.

Capt. Akinkuotu however assured airspace users and the flying public that the Nigerian airspace remained safe, adding that NAMA would continue to upgrade its air traffic management services and procedures to guarantee safety of air navigation in the country at all times.

The Securities and Exchange Commission, SEC has said that it will continue to collaborate with relevant stakeholders to sensitise investors on the need to regularise their multiple accounts as well as claim their dividends.

Uduk who spoke during an interview in Abuja, weekend, said the Commission has taken various steps to ensure that shareholders benefit from their investments in the capital market.

She said the volume of unclaimed dividend is still huge but the commission is doing a lot to bring it down.

According to her, “Only recently, in our determination to reduce the quantum of unclaimed dividends in the Nigerian Capital Market and encourage beneficiaries of deceased investors to step up efforts to claim such dividends, the Commission exposed an amendment to our Rules which reduced the time, processes and costs of the transmission of shares from a deceased to the beneficiary.

“The timeline for the transmission of the deceased’s shares has been reduced from three weeks to one week. Going by that, registrars shall ensure that shares of a deceased are transmitted within a week of receiving the request from the administrators or executors. This effort will ensure seamless transmission and claim of a deceased’s shares by heirs and administrators.

Uduk said it is also the quest for investors to get the benefit of their investments that prompted the Commission to release a circular to shareholders of defunct Skye bank to claim all outstanding dividends.

She said sensitisation efforts are going on with other stakeholders to enlighten members of the public on the need to go and claim their shares through regularization of multiple accounts.

“If you cannot claim your shares, there is no way you will be talking about claiming your dividends.

One of the things the Commission has done is to encourage these people to come and regularize their accounts. As I speak about 2.6 million account holders have registered for e-dividend and many can testify that they are getting their dividends promptly” she said.

She also said the SEC has informed shareholders of the defunct Skye Bank that unclaimed dividends declared by the bank are being held in trust on their behalf and urged them to claim their dividends.

This she stated, will further help reduce the volume of unclaimed dividends in the market and boost investor confidence.

Uduk said the Commission has also directed Cardinalstone Registrars and STL Trustees to ensure that all genuine claims of beneficiary shareholders are addressed forthwith.

The Acting DG said since the company is no longer in operation, these unclaimed dividends have to be made available to the rightful owners that are the shareholders, as that will go a long way in boosting investor confidence in the market.

“They invested in a company and since the company has gone under, there is no reason why they should not have access to their unclaimed dividends. That is why we are calling on them to take advantage of this opportunity and claim their dividends”, Uduk stated.

Nigeria, the African giant: In need of foreign policy direction

Times Guest Columnist

By Msgr. Livinus Ukah

When Nigerians speak with one voice, truth comes out. When an issue affects only one person or group, others might say “E no concern me.”

Now Nigeria is going through a process of growth and this growth involves pain and suffering. Each person is feeling it and that is why they are now shouting together to shut down what is making them feel pains.

Nigeria is really going through a metamorphosis and she is perching from one opinion to another like a butterfly that perches from one tree to another seeking for freedom. Nigeria is searching for liberation. As long as Nigerians continue to speak with one voice, the liberation is near.

We have seen many instances recently of Nigerians coming out to condemn what is wrong which led the authorities and persons concerned to take decisive actions. Nigerians can now see what speaking with one voice can do. The voice of Nigerians can now reach the seats of power.

The past election has exposed Nigerians to know the various injustices in the land and they have now known how to react to them.

We should take advantage of it and speak out boldly every time injustice is meted out on us. Now Nigerians are beginning to be aware of what makes them lag behind in politics, development, education etc.

If supported, Nigerians can be like their counterparts overseas. We can manufacture airplanes like others and even go to the moon. We can make our economy boom if we have all the backups.

However, we are limited in what we can do. Sometimes we may resign to fate that life should be like this but when we look at people overseas, we begin to pity ourselves and ask questions.

If the government creates an enabling environment, there is nothing we can’t do than looking outside for greener pastures or help.

The material and human resources are here. Brain drain has paralyzed Nigerian economy. What does it take to manufacture cars? Can we not do it here? Sometimes our problem is lack of appreciation. Innoson Motors was discouraged several times but he never gave up.

Nigerians can learn from him not to start something and give up later. The youths of today are driven to success to explore and become successful. This is in them. They are waiting for government to give them the necessary supports and boost their stimuli. Without incentives and drive to be great, Nigeria would continue to lag behind in Technology and other matters. Many of the imported items could be manufactured here but we still buy them form outside at unimaginable high prices due to exchange rates.

Migration poses another serious problem in the world. Many citizens from developing countries look for greener pastures outside.

Unfortunately, they are met with shipwreck, various hardships on their journey, harassed and sent back to their countries. Nigeria ranks high in this aspect and as well as in hunger index.

The Roman Pontiff moved by compassion, appealed to the world on the need to help the victims of migration. If there is social justice people would not look for it outside. If there is wealth, we can’t look for it outside. Enabling environment creates all these. But politics deprives us of these yearnings because we don’t speak against what affects us with one voice and mind.

Ethnicity is another hideous enemy in Nigerian political history. Where you come from, would decide the choice of the person who will be your Governor or President.

Nigeria has not yet migrated sincerely to be real citizens and become patriotic but tribal jingoism is still in our veins! We are too far away from voting for somebody who is not from our own tribe.

We miss a lot by allowing this syndrome to bring a divide in

Nigerian polity. We saw what happened in the last elections, how tribalism influenced the voting pattern.

Apart from tribalism, religion has its own part to play in Nigerian politics.

Nigerians tend to choose their leaders based on religious affiliations even though they lack merits. Religion has the same coloration with tribalism.

Our religious differences have made us to be biased in approaching issues. We tend to maintain a conspiracy of silence when it concerns “our religious man” in politics. This has weakened our voices to speak as patriotic Nigerians. If Nigeria is divided along tribal and religious lines, how can we sustain unity and development? What is then the essence of religion and unity in diversity? It is pertinent to note that Religion is all about the love of the divine and prohibition of killing our brothers.

Some years ago, the Arewa Consultative Forum gave a quit notice to their fellow Nigerians to leave the North, I wrote against it, when Afenifere spoke against it too, they denied and made a U-turn. See what speaking with one voice can do! Today they have gone back to their divisive behaviour because of the suspension of a scheme with an alleged sinister motive.

One firm voice that resonates can shatter the brain waves of the oppressors to act positively and shun injustice. Nigeria does not want to divide. She is the giant and voice of Africa.

She is important to Africa. We need to be together and avoid unhygienic words that create tribal nuances that dislocate our fellow Nigerians making them unhappy in their country.

According to Pope Francis, we are all immigrants in this world. Nobody is a stranger in his own country. Nigeria is suffering today due to lack of attention to truth. This is one of the obstacles derailing Nigeria’s politics, progress and unity.

Super Eagles crash out of AFCON title after Algeria snatch a win Super Eagles tonight crashed out of the 2019 AFCON in the semifinals after a stoppage time winner by Algeria skipper Riyad Mahrez.

Mahrez showed class with his magically struck free kick on top of the box after Wilfred Ndidi committed an infringement.

Friday’s AFCON Final will thus be between Algeria and Senegal, while Nigeria will battle Tunisia in the losers’ final.

Algeria created the better chances in the first half and deserved their lead, but were pegged back in the second half by a spirited Nigerian team.

It was also Man of the Match Mahrez who was involved in the opening goal when his right cross was helped on by Nigeria defender William Ekong in the 40th minute.

Odion Ighalo drew Nigeria level in the 72nd minute from the penalty spot after VAR adjudged that Aissa Mandi handled the ball inside his box from a shot by Etebo.

It was his fourth goal of the tournament.

After several close calls in the seventh and 11th minutes, Ramy Bensibaini’s header off a free kick in the 16th minute did not miss the Nigerian goal by much.

Big striker Baghdad Bounedjah was a serious bother for the Nigeria defence.

In the 29th minute, he forced a point-blank save from goalkeeper Daniel Akpeyi after he sped past his marker Kenneth Omeruo.

And it was only a timely clearance

by Jamilu Collins on 36 minutes that will deny the Saudi Arabia-based striker from making hay.

The Eagles biggest opening in the first half fell to Odion Ighalo after he was set up by Alex Iwobi, but his final shot on the edge of the box rolled past the opposing goal.

In stoppage time, Algeria midfielder Ismael Bennacer saw his powerful shot from distance crash against the post with Akpeyi completely beaten.

Back-to-Back: Djokovic defeats Federer in epic match for fifth Wimbledon title The World’s topranked tennis player has defended his crown at the sport’s most famous tournament. Novak Djokovic defeated Roger Federer in the men’s singles championship at Wimbledon on Sunday, (7-6, 1-6, 7-6, 4-6, 13-12) to earn his fifth title at the British club.

In the first year of the newly implemented rule, Federer and Djokovic reached the fifth set tiebreaker for the first time in a Wimbledon final.

It’s the second time in his career the Serbian has earned back-to-back championships at Wimbledon after accomplishing the feat in 2014-15. Djokovic defeated

Federer in both of those championship matches as well. The 32-year-old is now 26–22 (10–6 in Grand Slams) against Federer.
