‘You can’t intimidate workers with sack’ Continued from page 1

from their late night meeting in Abuja on Wednesday threatened to sack workers if they are compelled to pay the N30,000 Minimum Wage.

In a statement issued by the President of the Nigeria Labour Congress, Comrade Ayuba Wabba, on Thursday, the Congress said the threat by the Governors cannot deter its already planned action against the State governors who are bent on deviating from paying the agreed N30,000.00 Minimum Wage..

According to Comrade Wabba, the Labour family is battle ready to face the threat, adding that the governors cannot intimidate workers by their threat.

His words: “The attention of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Organised Labour, the Working Class, Pensioners and their families have been drawn to a statement credited to the Chairman of the Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF), Alhaji Abdulaziz Yari, the Governor of Zamfara State, threatening to sack workers on the account of the New National Minimum Wage of N30,000”.

The NLC president noted that it would interest Nigerians to know that the New National Minimum Wage of N30,000 was a product of intense and robust negotiations at the National Minimum Wage Tripartite Negotiation Committee that lasted for one year between November 2017 to November 2018.

He further stated that at the National Minimum Wage Tripartite

Negotiation Committee, State governments were represented by six states, one state from each of the six geo-political zones of Nigeria. He also said that letter was sent by the Tripartite Committee to every state to send in their memorandum as their input to the national minimum wage negotiations. It is on record that 21 States responded by sending memoranda with figures.

“Subsequently, public hearings were conducted in each of the geo-political zones in the country. The State governments were all represented at the zonal hearings and made their input to discussions towards a new national minimum wage.

The demand of organised labour was N66,500.

From the memoranda submitted to the National Minimum Wage Tripartite Negotiation Committee by State governments, there were proposals by some states to even pay higher than the negotiated national minimum wage of N30,000.

“After extended and extensive negotiations by the Tripartite Committee, a final compromise figure of N30,000 was agreed by all the partners – Government, Organised Labour and Employers in the Private Sector. This agreement took on board prevailing economic indices and factors especially as outlined in Convention 131 and Recommendation 95 of the International Labour Organisation (ILO) Convention on Criteria and Procedure for Collective Bargaining especially towards arriving at a National Minimum Wage

for any country,” the NLC boss stated.

Wabba observed that it was on the basis of this agreement that the National Minimum Wage Tripartite Negotiation Committee concluded its work and submitted its Report to Mr. President on the 6th of November, 2018. He said this ended the process of negotiations for a new national minimum wage for Nigerian workers.

Labour, Wabba said, was alarmed at the statement of Governor Abdulaziz Yari purportedly for the Nigeria Governors Forum, noting that one year after the inauguration of the National Minimum Wage Tripartite Negotiation Committee, Yari’s statement is certainly an after-thought and has no place in the collective bargaining process.

“We understand that Mr. Yari Abdulaziz’s position is at the instance of a few antiworker governors. We are not in any doubt that many worker-friendly governors are ready to pay even higher than the negotiated N30,000 new national minimum wage.

“In view of the foregoing, the NLC reiterates that the process of negotiation by the tripartite social partners for a new National Minimum Wage has ended and a new National Minimum Wage of N30,000 has been agreed upon by government, labour and employers in the private sector.

“That the 1999 Nigerian Constitution (as amended) recognises individual states in the Collective Bargaining Process NOT Nigeria Governors Forum. The states, like the other social

Our reforms are succeeding – Buhari Mathew Dadiya, Abuja President Muhammadu Buhari has said that his administration will continue to implement policies that attract investment and spark competition in critical sectors of the economy for employment creation and growth.

Speaking at the State House, Abuja on Thursday while receiving the Chairman and Management of the LADOL Integrated Logistics Enterprise on a courtesy visit, President Buhari commended the company for taking full advantage of the probusiness policies put in place by his administration and aimed at bringing domestic and direct foreign investment which are yielding prosperity to the people of the country.

“Your competitive and aggressive activity has brought

you success. I am pleased that you investing in a critical area, the oil industry, in which I have developed interest. I am happy you are training Nigerians and giving them respectful jobs.

What you are doing shows that whoever tries will succeed,” he said.

The Chairman and Chief Executive of the company, Chief Oladipo Jadesimi, said they had come to thank President Buhari for creating an enabling environment and anti-corruption regime that have enabled their business to create a 10 billion Dollar investment and 50,000 new jobs.

On her part, the Managing Director, Dr. Amy Jadesimi, informed the President that their investment had a mission to attract local and international companies that will help reduce the cost of off-

shore support services.

According to her, “policies initiated by this government by abrogating monopoly, thereby allowing IOCs (International Oil Companies) to use any facility in Nigeria, yielded immediate positive result for the Nigerian economy by reducing costs by 50 percent.”

She said that in the near future, seven more FPSO (floating production storage off-loading) units will be built in Nigeria, bringing USD 100 billion investment, thousands of jobs and a diversification of the economy due to 70 per cent local content.

The Managing Director expressed the determination of LADOL to turn Nigeria into a hub for logistics and heavy lifting in the sub-region by providing non-stop, 24 hours, seven days a week support services in the Lagos area.

Strike: FG/ASUU negotiation meeting deadlocked Doosur Iwambe and Idu Jude, Abuja, with agency report

The meeting between the Federal Government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) which held on Thursday ended without resolution of the nationwide strike by ASUU. Recall that ASUU went on nationwide strike on November 4, 2018 over its demands for improved funding of universities and welfare of lecturers.

Thursday’s meeting began 3p.m and ended 8:15 p.m.

The Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, said government’s discussion with ASUU will continue next week.

Ngige earlier said the meeting with the ASUU was late in coming due to the minimum wage negotiation.

He appealed to the union to put the interests of student as who are at the receiving end into consideration.

ASUU president, Professor Biodun Ogunyemi, said the union have tendered its request and also said the meeting has been adjourned till next week.

According to him, no date has been fixed but “we will communicate the date to you tomorrow,” he told waiting journalists.

He said the union was forced to call the strike after its plea for the implementation of the 2009 agreement fell on deaf ears.

“Our meeting with the education minister in May and September to remind him about Federal Government promises to implement the agreement yielded no result,” he said.

Ogunyemi earlier said the government had promised to take action on issues raised in the last MOU signed by the two parties but “it does appears that Federal Government is dribbling the union.”

Speaking earlier on Thursday before the meeting went into technical session, Prof.

Ogunyemi, berated the Federal Government over failure to improve the quality of Governmentowned institutions across the country which has aided the proliferation of low quality private schools.

According to him, the Federal Government has failed to revamp the quality of education in Nigeria and to aid the government-owned institutions to the benefit of the privately owned institutions.

“What we see now is that Government medium suffer due to the fact that the sitting Government has allowed the private schools enjoy,” he stated.

The ASUU members at the meeting who rejected every Kola presented to them by the Labour Ministry, stated that a country like Rwanda has revamped its educational programme after exiting from war in 2004 and now is standing as one of the countries

with high quality educational programme.

The leadership of ASUU reminded that the reason for embarking on strike action is predicated upon the urgent need for the Federal Government to address its abandoned memorandum of understanding signed with Federal Government.

He said: “We are not just happy to embark on strike action but we have no option owing to an urgent need for education transformation. You can recall that most of our demands are dated back to 2001 with no remedy. We have so many cases which includes the University of Ilorin

verification and academic allowances which after six months have not been paid.

Other cases in Kogi University where our union members are being prosecuted for unionism activities”.

Further continuing, ASUU warned of the impending danger of proliferation of private universities across the state and local governments.

“It appears every state and local government want to esterblish a private universities

Leah Sharibu still in Boko Haram captivity

Doosuur Iwambe, Abuja Nine months after Boko Haram insurgents abducted about 112 schoolgirls in Dapchi, Yobe State, academic activities have resumed fully in Government Girls’ Science and Technical College.

The school reopened its activities without Leah Sharibu, who was kidnapped alongside 112 other hostages on February 19, 2018 when Boko Haram terrorists raided Government Girls Science and Technical College in Dapchi, Yobe State.

Sharibu is the lone Christian girl still in Boko Haram captivity after herself and her school mates were abducted in Dapchi, Yobe State, in February.

After weeks of negotiations with the government, about one hundred of them were

later set free while five were reported to have died.

Leah was not released by the terrorists for failing to renounce her Christian faith.

Leah turned 15 on May 14, 2018 surrounded by strangers who are causing her emotional and physical harm.

Meanwhile, the principal of the school, Hajiya Adama Abdulkarim, told journalists in Dapchi on Thursday that at least 80 per cent of the students and teachers had resumed.

She said: “More than 80 per cent of the students have resumed, likewise the teachers. Almost all of them are around except for very few who are away for one or more official reasons”.

She called on the Federal and Bauchi State governments, non-governmental organisations as well as public-spirited individuals to assist the school, adding that

“Before the incident, there were no matrons in the school, but now, with the help of the local government and permission of the Ministry of Education, we have been able to source for six elderly women.

“We instructed the matrons to always be around, especially in the hostels, after class hours, to comfort and encourage the students.

“On the side of the government, the military, police and civil defence personnel have been around the school at all times,” she said.

She added that the state government had created admission spaces in the school for 700 students in the next academic session.

across Nigeria even those that cannot be funded. This is the beginning of the death of education in Nigeria. We know that some of the states’ universities cannot just be funded by the states let alone privately owned institutions”.

He also highlighted the failure of Government in payment of Education Academic Allowances (EAA) which the Government has failed to pay after six weeks of promise.

Meanwhile, welcoming the ASUU delegation to the meeting, Labour minister, Senator Chris Ngige, said that reaching agreement with ASUU is never late.

“It is never late and we better be late than never as problems can be solved because it is just human issues. I want us in the spirit of our children who study here in Nigeria to see that they go back to school,” he said.

Senator Ngige further noted that he as a Minister of Labour see reasons why the students should go back to school to further continue their process.

“I want us in the spirit of our children and I can say here that none of my children studies abroad. All of them study in Nigeria here, you can now see why I’m also being affected”.

partners, have already defended their positions during negotiations at the National Minimum Wage Tripartite Negotiation Committee vis-à-vis counter proposals,” the Congress asserted.

The NLC further reiterated that the threat to sack workers is not new in the struggle for review of the national minimum wage in Nigeria, noting that the current one by the Governor of Zamfara State cannot be used to intimidate labour. The Congress said the consequences of workers retrenchment are too grievous for any political office holder truly elected by the people to contemplate.

“We propose that since a few political office holders are bent on enslaving Nigerian workers with peanuts mislabeled as salaries, we urge such elected public officials to subject their humungous salaries and allowances, reputed to be among the highest in the world, pro rata with the minimum wage they want to force down the throats of Nigerian workers. We, therefore, urge each State Governor to go to their respective states and inform workers and their families their individual position on the new national minimum wage of N30,000”.

Meanwhile, Chairman of the

Nigerian Governors Forum, Governor Abdulaziz Yari, has been warned by the organised labour to desist from using the platform of the Nigeria Governors Forum to seek political relevance, noting that his tactics of blackmail against workers is already time worn and the stench is already offensive.

It said that the leadership of the Nigeria Labour Congress and Organised Labour will continue to urge workers to remain steadfast and firm on its rights to decent wages and improved living conditions.

It further directed the workers vote out any politician or political party that refuses to pay the new national minimum wage of N30,000, stating that it will continue to consolidate on its efforts to strengthen already existing platforms and structures to give teeth to the resolve to vote out anti-labour governors and politicians in the forthcoming 2019 general election.

It, however, called on President Muhammadu Buhari to be wary of some people, especially in the Nigeria Governors Forum because they are wont, for selfish and personal reasons, to present him as an anti-worker President and by extension orchestrate anti-Buhari sentiments in the populace.

Oshiomhole threatens to sue Sen. Saraki 2019 polls: We will

not fail – INEC chair

Let’s meet in court - Saraki

Tom Okpe, Abuja The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Comrade Adams Oshiomhole has stated that the Senate President, Bukola Saraki should provide evidence of inducement against him (Oshiomhole) or he will go to court.

The Senate President was reported to have alleged that the National Chairman of the ruling APC has no moral ground to be in politics due to the manner the party’s primary election was conducted under him, calling for his resignation.

However, in swift reaction, the Senate President, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki in a statement by his Special Adviser (Media and Publicity), Yusuph Olaniyonu, also described the threat by the former Edo State Governor to sue him over his statement that Oshiomhole ought to quit politics on moral grounds over the allegations against him, as an empty boast because he (Saraki) will be ready to meet him (Oshiomhole) in court.

Speaking to journalists at the party secretariat in Abuja on Thursday, the press secretary to the Chairman, Simon Ebegbulem said: “The unwarranted attack on the character of the National Chairman of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Comrade

Adams Oshiomhole, by the senate President, Bukola Saraki is pathetic and irresponsible resort to petty politics.

According to Ebegbulem, “Saraki, a usurper of and pretender to the position of senate president, has no moral ground to call for the resignation of the national chairman, Oshiomhole, it is sad that Saraki, who just woke up from slumber occasioned by his crushing defeat at the Port Harcourt presidential primary election of his party, could degenerate to such a low level.

“It is equally sad, but not unexpected, that Saraki, who is politically drowning, would make such libellous comments against the national chairman of the APC. And I challenge Saraki to mention one name of an aspirant that gave money to the National Chairman or we file a legal action against him.

“The basis on which he made those comments was tenuous and unjustifiable; it is on record that Saraki has been in the eye of investigations by the EFCC and the ICPC for sundry cases of corruption and this is the same man that has taken it upon himself to question Comrade Oshiomhole’s credibility.

“We challenge him to mention one person who has claimed he gave money to Oshiomhole to influence him and the decision of the party’s National Working Committee

(NWC) in the just-concluded primary elections.

‘We insist that Saraki with his kind of politics is nothing but a monumental disgrace to the nation’s democracy”, he said.

Meanwhile, the All Progressives Congress has responded to purported endorsement of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar by some Igbo leaders.

According to the party spokesman, Lanre Issa-Onillu, “The APC considers Atiku and his PDP co-travellers as people who have lost any sense of shame. The reported endorsement of Atiku and PDP by some leaders in the South East for the 2019 general elections is an affront on the Igbo people who were frontline victims of the 16 years of the PDP misrule.

“It will be interesting to know what the PDP will be telling the People during the campaign. The South East people have three and half years visible progress in terms of massive infrastructure and the thousands of common people who are benefiting from the social program investments under APC to compare to the PDP’s 16 years of retrogation”, the party noted.

Onilu stated that the party is confident that the Igbo won’t be fooled by any group to sell a thoroughly discredited

party like the PDP to the very discerning Igbo people.

Again, the Senate President, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, said that Nigerians are eagerly awaiting how President Muhammadu Buhari will handle the serious allegations of bribery levelled against the National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Mr. Adams Oshiomhole, over the conduct of the just concluded primary elections in the party.

“Nigerians are waiting to see how the President will handle the serious allegations against his party chairman.

We expect the President with his anti-corruption campaign to institute thorough and transparent investigation into the allegations against his party chairman.

“The failure of the President to get to the root of the matter will finally destroy his ability and that of the party to continue to talk of any antigraft battle. The President should let the investigation be thorough, open and transparent. This is no time for any cover-up”, he stated.

Saraki maintained that until the outcome of a thorough investigation is known to Nigerians and the APC chairman is cleared of the allegations against him, Oshiomhole is not on a firm ground to talk about morality or fight against corruption.

Impeachment: Anambra Assembly in turmoil as policemen teargas lawmaker, others Nkiru Nwagbo and John Ndu, Awka The Anambra State House of Assembly, on Wednesday, witnessed violence as policemen blocked the entrance to the premises and also sprayed teargas into the air.

This is the first time the lawmakers were sitting after the purported impeachment of Speaker of the House, Rita Maduagwu.

No fewer than 300 policemen manned the Assembly area from the Alex Ekwueme Square entrance of the complex as from 8am.

Workers of the judiciary and others who had any business in the area were denied entrance.

Trouble began when a lawmaker mobilised some supposed supporters to the House, allegedly to show solidarity for Maduagwu.

Police, however, repelled the protesters with tear gas.

Consequently, the entire environment was filled with tear gas as policemen attempted to ward off everybody in the area.

A member of the House, Mrs. Beverly Nkemdiche, who was

affected by the teargas shouted and screamed on end, saying, “They have killed me! I’m a member of the House. Please, don’t kill me.”

Journalists and other onlookers scampered for safety.

Meanwhile, journalists were not allowed to gain entrance to the House of Assembly complex not to talk of covering the sitting as usual.

Few hours later, the member representing Aguata II State Constituency and the new speaker, Rt. Hon. Ikemefune Uzoezie, came outside with some members to address the journalists.

He said he has assumed duty as the authentic Speaker of the Assembly with 25 members by his side.

Uzoezie, who was elected last Tuesday by 22 members after impeaching the former Speaker, Rita Maduagwu, was not sworn-in same day.

But interacting with the media after their alleged sitting, Uzoezie condemned actions of the police, who did not allow the journalists access to the complex to cover their sittings.

He was flanked by fifteen Assembly members including the Deputy Speaker, Harford

Oseke; the Majority Leader, Jideofor Okoye; Minority Leader, Onyebuchi Offor; Benson Nwawulu of Ogbaru I and others.

According to him, there were no faction in the 6th Assembly as the clerk, staff of the assembly and others were in attendance during their sittings.

He said they adjourned to Tuesday next week, and commended Anambra residents for their support, assuring that they will continue to do those things they were elected to do as lawmakers.

Uzoezie commended Governor Willie Obiano for safe trip to and fro France, hoping that his visit would impact positively on them.

“The mace, clerk and everything including the staff were in during the sittings,” he maintained, adding that the house is functioning.

He also dismissed the reports that himself, Majority Leader, Jideofor Okoye; and Deputy Speaker, Harford Oseke were suspended by the APGA, saying that he was yet to be briefed.

The Daily Times learnt that the embattled Speaker of the Assembly, Rita Maduagwu;

and those in her faction were in the premises during the sittings.

However, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) suspended the factional speaker, Ikem Uzoezie, Deputy Speaker, Hartford Oseke and the Majority Leader, Jideofor Okoye, for their alleged participation in Hon Rita Maduagwu’s impeachment as Speaker of the House of Assembly.

Speaking with newsmen in Awka, the chairman of APGA Anambra State, Nobert Obi expressed disappointment in the conduct of the suspended members, saying the party has set up disciplinary committee to investigate their grievances in the bid to restore peace the house has been enjoying since the inception of the 6th House of Assembly.

The party also enjoined the members to explore the party’s provision to ventilate their grievances, noting the party would ensure peace is returned to the state House of Assembly.

Obi, however, maintained that APGA was not the only party in crisis but that all hands must be on deck to ensure internal democracy and fair play in the party.

Patrick Okohue, Lagos

The Chairman, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, on Thursday, said the commission will not fail the nation in the conduct of 2019 general election.

He made this promise while speaking at the 6th Anniversary Lecture and Investiture into the Realnews Hall of Fame held in Lagos. The event was tagged: “Political Transitions and Africa’s Economic Development: Preparations for Nigeria’s 2019 General Elections”.

According to him, the commission is not unaware that the conduct of 2019 elections is a tough task, but INEC is determined to leave no stone unturned to conduct free, fair and credible elections. He said that INEC was deeply committed to democratic elections that would contribute to political stability and consolidation of democracy which would propel the nation to greater economic prosperity.

His words: “It is true that political stability is a prerequisite for economic growth and development. It is also true that no economy flourishes in a situation of uncertainty. Nations cannot develop if they are unstable.

We have seen nations and cities destroyed by unacceptable electoral outcomes.

“Democratic transition through periodic and credible elections is the best way to ensure certainty that will guarantee and sustain political stability.

“We will never ever fail the nation. Our commitment is that we will never give Nigerians excuses.

The commission has embarked on diligent preparations to ensure that the 2019 general elections is credible and meets the goals of election integrity.”

Yakubu said there could be no peaceful or sustainable political transition and consequential economic and other benefits to citizens without credible and peaceful elections through a transparent and inclusive electoral process.

To achieve this goal, the INEC chairman called on all stakeholders — governments, election administrators, security agencies, civil society groups, the media, political parties, candidates and their supporters — to play their roles.

According to him, the commission has embarked on the consolidation of full biometric voter registration through the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) between April 27 and August 31, among other preparations. He said that at the end of the exercise, some 14.5 million Nigerians were added to the existing register of about 70 million, and the voters register for the 2019 elections had hit 84.2million.

Yakubu, who called for support of all stakeholders for the collection of PVCs, said that a new approach to the collection would commence early in December and continue until a week to the elections.

According to him, the PVCs of those who registered in 2017 and those who registered in the first and second quarters of 2018 have been printed and delivered to states. He said that the cards for those who registered in the third quarter of 2018 would be delivered by the end of November, which include all cards for those who applied for intra and interstate transfer and replacements.

Yakubu said there would not be any use of incidence forms, instead, manual register of voters had been redesigned to provide for a box for thumb printing and telephone number of any voter whose biometric was not authenticated by the Smart Card Readers.

According to him, the commission has harmonised accreditation and voting, carried out greater engagement, installation of trackers, enhancement of Smart Card Readers and improved logistics.

“We are working to ensure optimal performance of the Smart Card Readers,” the INEC Chairman said. He highlighted INEC challenges to include do or die mentality of politicians, votebuying, lack of internal democracy, incendiary speech, security, impunity and lack of consequences for electoral offenders.

According to him, impact of litigation and conflicting court orders are also affecting the commission, but the electoral body continues to put in efforts to improve the conduct of elections in Nigeria.

He lamented that there were increasing pre-election cases, with the commission being joined in 273 court actions and numerous petitions.

Earlier in his remarks, Dr. Haroun Adamu, the Chairman of the occasion and former Chairman, Petroleum Trust Fund, said that social media platforms had been so influential in information dissemination.

“They are the major opinion shapers and are influential. The business model adopted by Realnews is very forward-thinking and can be described as being ahead of the crowd. The team must continue to strive to remain dynamic, flexible and willing to adopt as the environment evolves with advances in technology, particularly in artificial intelligence (AI),” Adamu said.

He urged Realnews and other media to be the cornerstone of investigative journalism in Nigeria and Africa, and be change agents in the Nigerian social and political landscape, focusing on key sectors of Nigeria’s economy.

Bye-election: Unknown gunmen attack APC candidate in Kwara Kehinde Akinpelu, Ilorin

Few hours to the November 17 bye-election in Kwara State, the All Progressives Candidate (APC), Mr Raheem Olawuyi was at the wee hours of Thursday allegedly attacked by unknown gunmen at Idofin Igbana.

Olawuyi was on a campaign tour of Oke-ero Local Government and had departed Ekan ward for Idofin Igbana.

The campaign team was said to have been led by some members of the APC state executives and other party stalwarts.

The assailants were said to have laid siege at the entrance of the town along the busy road before shooting their target at close range.

The back screen of the Lexus Jeep was badly shattered following the impact of the attack.

The occupants of the Lexus jeep conveying the candidate of the APC,

the driver and two other stalwarts of the party, were said to have escaped unhurt.

The party supporters who saw the state of the car expressed shock and disbelief praising God for saving the life of their party candidate.

They decried the development as barbaric and crude, noting that the perpetrators should face the full weight of the law when apprehended.

The community vigilante immediately swung into action by mobilising to locate the perpetrators while combing the areas in their bid to apprehend the assailants.

Olawuyi while addressing his supporters at Idofin Igbana afterwards at about 2:00 am Thursday urged them to remain calm and steadfast.

According to him, such is one of the ultimate prizes to pay for freedom and that they should remain undaunted and undeterred in their quest to free themselves from their slave master.

Chief Michael Olaoye, the Abadofin

of Idofin Igbana led the team to the palace of Oni dofin of Igbana, Oba Samuel Ifabiyi to intimate him of the unfolding incident.

Olaoye said that the community would not rest until the perpetrators were apprehended.

According to him, this is the first time such will be happening in our domain as far as electioneering is concern.

In his reaction, Oba Ifabiyi expressed shock and dismay over the heinous crime, stressing that the perpetrator would be exposed in due course to pay for their crime.

He advised the candidate not to allow the incidence to dampen his morale, while urging him to remain focus on his mission and ambition.

The party said effort by the campaign spokesperson, Femi David to immediately alert the Area commander and the Divisional Police Officer, Omu-Aran on the incident on phone proved abortive as none of their lines want through.

Imo 2019: Hope Uzodinma gets Diaspora endorsement The chances of victory for Senator Hope Uzodinma, candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC) for the 2019 governorship election in Imo State became brighter this week following the endorsement of his aspiration by a group of Imo State indigenes living abroad who said they are working to see him become the next governor of the state from May, 29, 2019.

According to a statement signed by its coordinator, Chief Nnanna Okere and made available to the media, the group, Imo Diasporas Support for Senator Hope Uzodinma also congratulated the lawmaker for emerging as the preferred candidate of APC through a primary election that they described as very transparent.

The statement said that Uzodinma is the right choice of APC members in the state and therefore applauded leaders and members of the party, especially the National Working Committee (NWC) led by Comrade Adams Oshiomhole for standing for justice, fairness and equity as enshrined in the APC guidelines.

While pledging to contribute immensely to ensure victory for Senator Uzodinma

in coming election, the group promised to mobilise its members to return home in order to vote massively for the APC candidate as according to them, over 95 percent of their members had taken time earlier to come to Nigeria and register for the election as well as obtain their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs).

“We congratulate Senator Hope Uzodinma for his well-deserved victory at the primaries.

He is the right choice for the party in Imo state and with him victory is assured. Imo would surely become a blessed state with Senator Hope Uzodinma as governor because of his track record of achievements as well as his outstanding performance at the Senate through quality representation,” the group said.

It urged other aspirants who contested against Senator Uzodinma but could not make it, especially the Ugwumba Movement led by Uche Nwosu to embrace peace and work for the victory of the party to ensure continuity at the Douglas House Owerri come 2019 and also admonished the Imo APC Restoration Coalition not to see their victory over the Ugwumba Movement as a zero sum game but a victory for democracy.

The group also stressed that what should be paramount to APC was to concentrate and ensure overall victory at the main election not all these attacks on each other on the media as according to them Imo people are waiting to cast their votes for Senator Uzodinma in 2019.

“We therefore urge the people to be rest assured that Uzodinma’s administration will work towards alleviating the suffering of our people. Senator Uzodinma as governor will empower the youths to achieve their potentials. As a passionate and resourceful leader who became a millionaire in his mid-30s when hard work pays, Senator Uzodinma is determined to work with the young, intelligent and vibrant Imolites to drive growth that is built on human capital with productive knowledge,” the statement says.

It would be recalled that there was initial confusion over the authentic candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Imo State, for next year’s governorship election until the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) published the name of Senator Hope Uzodinma as the right candidate for the party.

A 19-year-old man, Sunday Owo was arrested yesterday with fresh human parts at a healing home in Awka the capital City of Anambra State.

Owo was caught with fresh male genital, human fingers and a bottle filled with the blood of a child.

The suspect told journalists that he hailed from Ohaukwu Local Government Area of Ebonyi state and was directed by one Blessing to procure the human parts and bring to a natural healing home in Awka for money ritual.

He confessed that he paid Blessing who was at-large as at press time the sum of N50, 000 for connecting her to the healing home.

Owo told journalists that his victim was four years old boy he killed at the stream in his town and threw the head and other parts into the stream.

“She brought me here two day ago and said that madam instructed her to tell me to bring these body parts that I will have money.

“Her name is blessing, she is also from Ebonyi state, but she said we can’t get these parts here so we went back to Ebonyi state where I got it and brought it here; I don’t know where blessing is now.

NAF launches ‘operation green sweep’, strikes Sharama Alagarno forest, BHT’s hide out Andrew Orolua, Abuja The Nigerian Air Force (NAF), through the Air Task Force (ATF) component of Operation LAFIYA DOLE, has launched a fresh attack code named “Operation Green Sweep” against Boko Haram Terrorists (BHT) in the Northeast.

A statement by the director of public relations and information, Nigerian Air Force, Air Commodore Ibikunle Daramola stated that the attacks which began on Wednesday, November 14, is an air interdiction operation targeting selected BHT locations within the fringes of Lake Chad as well as areas around the Alagarno forest near Sambisa in Borno State.

He said the operation is with a view to further degrade the remnants of the terrorists, curtailing their freedom of action and denying them bases from which they could launch attacks.

Highlighting the impact of the operation, Daramola said that air strikes

by NAF aircraft had resulted in the destruction of a BHT hideout and neutralized several terrorists at Sharama on the Lake Chad Green Fringes in Northern Borno.

If Nigeria fails to get Buhari’s certificate matter right

Bonaventure Melah

I will start this piece by quoting Sallust who said that “Every bad precedent originated as a justifiable measure.” In the same vein, Benjamin Disraeli states that “A precedent embalms a principle,” while Tom Graves posited that “One precedent creates another and they soon accumulate and constitute law,” adding that “What yesterday was a fact, today is doctrine.”

The controversy surrounding the qualification or not of President Muhammadu Buhari to contest a presidential election has reared its head again, this time with a new dimension that if not properly addressed may have serious consequence on the nation’s political and academic future.

Buhari’s academic qualifications matter was highly debated during the 2015 presidential election with arguments for and against coming from his All Progressives Congress (APC) and the then ruling Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) while also providing a veritable platform for lawyers, rights activists and the general public to dissipate their energy and for others, their frustrations.

Chapter 6 of the 1999 constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended) at Section 131 provides that any person aspiring to become the president of the country should: (a) Be a citizen of Nigeria by birth; (b) Has attained the age of forty years; (c) Be a member of a political party and is sponsored by that political party; and (d) Has been educated up to at least School Certificate level or its equivalent Prior to the 2015 elections, Candidate Buhari had said that his academic

certificates were with the Office of the Military Board. Though the claim generated much controversy, it was not legally resolved until Buhari won the election and was sworn in on 29th May as President of Nigeria.

Howbeit, a legal practitioner Nnamdi Nwokocha Ahaaiwe later filed a suit at the Federal High Court Abuja where he told the court that Buhari was not qualified to contest the office of the president because he did not sit for the Cambridge West Africa School Certificate Examination in 1961. He told the court that the claim by Buhari that his certificates were with the Office of the Secretary Military Board was not true as the Board was not in possession of such documents.

The president subsequently filed an appeal against the dismissal and procured the services of 13 senior lawyers led by Wole Olanipekin, SAN while others include Lateef O. Fagbemi (SAN), Akin Olujinmi (SAN), Oluwarotimi O. Akeredolu (SAN), Kola Awodein (SAN), Taiwo Osipitan (SAN), Charles Edosomwan (SAN), Emeka Ngige (SAN), Femi Atoyebi (SAN), Femi Falana (SAN), Funke Aboyade (SAN), H.O. Afolabi and 10 other counsels.

The argument of Olanipekun and the other senior lawyers was that the academic documents Buhari filed in his Presidential Nomination Form No “President APC/001/2015” were currently with the Secretary, Military Board as at the time he deposed affidavit to that effect.

However, the lawyer later filed a notice to the court seeking to discontinue with the suit which led to Justice Adeniji Ademola

to strike the case out on 30th June, 2016, saying that he could not continue with the case by virtue of Section 50(2) of the Federal High Court Civil Procedure Rules.

But as the matter came up again this year following President Buhari’s declaration to seek re-election, rather than the earlier position that his academic documents are still with the Military authorities, the West African Examination Council, WAEC has issued what it called Attestation Certificate to the President which the institution said is a representation of the true copies of his certificate.

The Board of WAEC led by its Registrar Dr. Iyi Uwadiae on Friday 2nd November, 2018 paid a courtesy visit to the President at the State House Abuja where they presented the Attestation certificate to him. Buhari thanked the WAEC Board for upholding WAEC’s integrity over the years, adding that he expected nothing less from the institution.

The above action by WAEC was openly celebrated by President Buhari in company of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation Boss Mustafa, the Chief of Staff to the President Abba Kyari and the Education Minister, Adamu Adamu all of who were present at the ceremony. In the same vein, APC leaders, members and supporters have been dancing over the latest development which they say has cleared all the doubts on the veracity of Buhari’s academic standing.

On the other hand, opposition parties and elements especially the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), its leaders and supporters as well as fans of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the

presidential candidate of the PDP have been sulking and cursing, arguing that the issuance of attestation certificate by WAEC to Buhari is an aberration and illegality.

However, instead of the ongoing attack and counter attack by politicians on the matter, what is necessary is to seek answers to the following questions: A. Is WAEC legally authorised to give attestation certificate to a candidate?

B. Has WAEC issued such certificate to any candidate in the past?

C. Does the attestation certificate represent certified true document and therefore a true representation of its result?

The Supreme Court should intervene and make specific pronouncements on these matters as such is both crucial and urgent because if Buhari stands on the protocol provided by this attestation certificate to contest the 2019 presidential election, it would amount to gross injustice for any other Nigerian to be disqualified from contesting any election, getting any job or admission into school or any professional body if the person presents attestation certificate from any institution in place of academic qualifications obtained earlier.

It is therefore important that all stakeholders including politicians and political parties understand the full import of the precedence being set by WAEC’s attestation certificate to the president because since we are a democratic nation operating in a civilised world, it would be wrong for anybody to assume that what obtains

The Minimum wage palaver To all you who believe we shouldn’t have a minimum wage — that the minimum amount you can be paid should be determined solely by your employer. We tried it once before: it was called SLAVERY ~ Quentin R. Bufogle

Chinemelu Nwokike

Analyzing the absurd in Nigeria is like trying to crack open a palm nut with an egg: fascinating but futile — yet time and again one is brought back to the same place by the seeming indifference of our leaders to the daily struggles of the average Nigerian. Where will I start analyzing the fact that the so-called ‘Giant of Africa’ is still grappling with a minimum wage of $50 whereas poorer neighbouring countries like Cameroon and Chad have minimum wages of $75 and $115 respectively?

Going by the International Labour Organisation (ILO)’s definition, a minimum wage is “the lowest wage that an employer is allowed to pay the employee, the price floor below which workers may not be willing to sell their labour”. In arriving at the figure consideration must be given to the prevailing inflationary trend, cost of living index and the employer’s capacity to pay the amount. It can, therefore, be deduced from the foregoing that any wage which falls below the minimum wage cannot guarantee a decent living for a worker or an employee.

In other words, any worker that does not receive up to such stipulated amount after rendering services is more or less a slave.

Last Sunday my Goddaughter popped in to say hi, she informed me that she has started work in a shop where she will be earning over €200 monthly for putting in a total of just 32 hours on Saturdays and Sundays.

Add that to the pecks of child benefits accruing to her from the social welfare office and it will sum up to about €400. That is five times more than the N30,000 minimum wage that the government has agreed with the Nigerian Labour Congress. And she’s only 16!

I am not one to compare Nigeria with ‘saner climes’ because even though I live in and feel both worlds I have always maintained that there is no magic wand to Uhuru in a developing nation which has been pauperized by decades of misrule from monumentally corrupt and visionless

leaders. I am also an optimist but sincere optimism requires an appreciation of the rot to have realistic expectations of what is attainable but I just couldn’t help imagining how a €400 monthly salary will transform the life of an average Nigerian worker.

Nevertheless, for the purpose of this piece, I will limit the juxtaposition to Africa.

In 2016 the World Bank through its World Developers Indicators (WDI) released data which revealed that among a sample of 19 African countries, Nigerian was a runnerup from the bottom position (beating only Malawi) in the minimum wage rate addition but ranked 11th in the inflation rate (14.32%).

Two years on the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) put the inflation rate in the second quarter of 2018 at 11.23% with the exchange rate of Naira at approximately N362 in the parallel market. However, despite the gradual decline in the inflation rate witnessed since the last quarter of 2017, as an import-dependent nation, the over 100% increase in exchange rate actuated an increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI), which is the weighted average of prices of consumer goods and services resulting in a huge reduction of the purchasing power of the naira.

What all these jargon mean in layman’s terms is that the current value of N30,000 is less than what it was 3 years ago. As a matter of fact, the N30,000 minimum wage is more or less meaningless, it was long overdue even in 2015 and that prompted many economists to propose an amount ranging between N50,000 to N65,000 considering the prevailing indices or parameters.

Paradoxically, one can equally understand those who objectively queried the verisimilitude of implementing the above figure or even the agreed N30,000.

So how realistic and achievable is it in the face of the country’s current economic reality for workers to be paid this amount as at when due? Salaries still constitute a major part of the annual recurrent expenditure that gulps over 70% of both state and federal budgets. Moreover, 33 out of 36 states are currently owing workers arrears of salaries for up to 11 months in some cases going by what the NLC says. If state governors cannot pay N18,000 how can they scratch N30,000 let alone N50,000? Mind you this is in spite

of the frequent bail-out funds doled out by the federal government.

Certainly, a majority of the states cannot pay the new minimum wage as it is no secret that we have a serious problem of economic viability among many states. Are we then set for another era of random overseas trips by governors seeking foreign loans to cushion this pressure? And if the motivation is political for the federal government which retains a large chunk (52%) of the government revenue and recently weeded out over 50,000 ghost workers from its payroll, then how can it avoid a repeat of the Jonathan era mistake when the government which increased minimum wage could no longer pay salaries as oil prices dipped? Any government that borrows to pay salaries is tightening the noose and mortgaging the future of generations unborn.

The situation is just a mess. There are more questions than answers. Ours is a country with limited social welfare and infrastructure, at N18,000 the average Nigerian worker has been catering for feeding, clothing, transport, and shelter with only N600 daily. Isn’t that a miracle in a place where rent is paid annually and two years in advance for a new tenant? I think it is.

Some have argued that service delivery is nothing short of pathetic. Our public institutions are notorious for being unkempt and often under-equipped working environment, add that to the nonchalance of civil servants and you ‘ve got your work cut out for you. If you have a business with a government ministry or public institution in Nigeria on any given day then you are better advised to devote the entire day to achieving that task.

The private sector is not particularly great either. Any professional in the construction industry will certainly know the difference in the quality component between what our artisans and those from smaller neighbouring countries like Togo or Ghana deliver. Simply put, ours is a nation with plenty of activity with little productivity.

However, it will be uncharitable to dismiss the importance of these services.

Whatsmore, once services are rendered it is only equitable that the wages are paid

at the end of a given period. We can only strive to improve the workplace and quality of service delivery because those are the negotiable factors and not the payment of agreed wages.

Again, when you consider that the president reportedly cuts has a budget of N70m for haircut, senators receive N13.5m pocket money in addition to monthly salaries and governors are free to take N500m as monthly security vote then you have to sympathise with civil servants because a huge chunk of the work of these elected officials are done by them. It is a case of “monkey de work baboon de chop” in the common Nigerian parlance.

It, therefore, is our collective duty to sustain the pressure on government at all levels to focus on the developmental projects like mass transit systems, low-income housing and other social infrastructures that erode a large percentage of the workers’ salaries. Legislators must be put on notice especially on the state level, to thoroughly scrutinise frivolous loan requests from the executive and decline accent if found wanting.

Labour should also work together with the government to explore ways of improving service delivery via training, skill acquisition, capacity building, and responsive feedback mechanism. With the regular technological innovations, quality service is getting easier to deliver. It is also more satisfying for the giver and receiver.

It is preposterous that in this digital era when we have better and cheaper tools, one can still find public offices without a single desktop computer.

So I would rather the government, civil servants and indeed Nigerians keep the champagne on ice because there is still much to do before the average worker can heave a sigh of relief and kick off her shoes. Be that as it may, I wouldn’t term the perceived victory by Organised Labour pyrrhic as I have read in some commentaries. Even if I won’t celebrate I have to commend every group that worked towards getting to a resolution because the alternative would have been worse for everybody. It is a step albeit a small one but without taking a step no matter how little you will not get to the destination.

Editorial Commentary Losing sleep over the Economist, other predictions

Times Guest Columnist Azu Ishiekwene

It matters a lot to our politicians what the foreign press or agencies say about them, especially about their electoral chances. If foreigners, particularly those in London or New York, say something nice, our politicians take it to heart and repost as far and wide as they can. If not, they get mad.

In recent times, forecasts about the outcome of the 2019 elections by the Economic Intelligence Unit of The Economist of London, and the United States Institute of Peace, have been hotly debated. In its two forecasts so far, The Economist favoured former Vice President and presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, to win.

The newspaper said its predictions were based on the promise of Atiku to re-invigorate the economy with pro-market policies. Also, it said the election might favour Atiku because of the failure of the government of President Muhammadu Buhari to deliver on its promises of jobs, as well as growing poverty and insecurity in central Nigeria.

The Atiku camp promptly seized on the predictions as endorsement of sorts and, clinking glasses in a mock celebratory toast, smiled to one another in excitement that victory might be closer than once thought.

It wasn’t long before the Buhari camp also got something to cheer – or so it would seem. The United States Institute of Peace (USIP) issued a report on a survey in Nigeria focused on preventing electoral violence. Unfortunately, those eager for an answer to The Economist, put a spin on the USIP report to suggest that it predicted likely victory for Buhari next year.

But seriously, there’s nothing in The Economist or USIP or a dozen other electoral predictions by the foreign press or agencies that we should be taking too seriously. We may not dismiss the reports as nonsense, but I think we must grow up and stop treating them like gospel.

How was it that these same editorial oracles didn’t see the 2007-08 financial crises coming? In fact, if some of the forecasts at the time were to be believed, the world was going through its most glorious era ever.

It was boom, boom, boom and the global financial system was supposedly awash with enough credit to meet every need and to spare. Yet, just when everyone thought it was peace and safety, the bubble burst, leaving the world in one of the worst financial crises in decades.

Two years ago, the oracles bit the dust again, big time. It happened in the political arena in the US, right inside the oracles’ shrine. Donald Trump was supposed to be a joke. That was virtually what all the forecasts said and even those in Trump’s campaign believed it and sometimes treated one another like jokers. Hilary Clinton was going to be the 45th President of the United States of America, shattering the last vestiges of the glass ceiling in a historic landslide.

Well, it didn’t happen, and the oracles conveniently invented the angry white middle class voter as the reason. Not that this effigy ever went anywhere in the eight years of Barack Obama. It just happened that the oracles couldn’t figure it out.

They still can’t. If you watched CNN, the result of the mid-term elections in the US was not supposed to be a shellacking for Trump, the eventual beginning of the end. But it’s looking a bit like the end of the beginning of another mis-hit.

The Economist may say what it likes about Nigeria, but it won’t vote in February. We were here when the newspaper called out the buffoonery and incompetence of the PDP government in 2014, and it was right. But that was the best it could do; it was up to us to vote out that government and we did.

We were also here when a US think tank predicted that the 2015 election might signal the end of Nigeria as

we know it; but the forecast came to nothing.

Let’s get this straight. The 2019 presidential election is going to be one of the most hotly contested.

It would also be a potential nightmare for the oracles.

The default template of north-south, ChristianMuslim, majority-minority, which is the favourite hot button of the West, is absent this time. Buhari and Atiku are as northern, as Hausa-Fulani, as Muslim, and as majority as any two frontrunners have ever being in a contest in the history of Nigeria’s party politics.

So, the oracles have to look elsewhere for a forecast that makes sense. And saying, like The Economist did, that the battle will shift to the south, does not sufficiently explain the likely outcome of the vote.

The rise in deadly conflicts in large parts of the north central in the last few years could play in the poll, but there are still large pockets of Muslims in these areas with strong sympathy for Buhari.

Also, just like the closet effigy of the white middle class male voters that the oracles failed to account for in the last US general elections, there remains a considerable politically active mass of Buhari followers in the north, unreached by and completely indifferent to the press or its extensions on social media.

It’s correct that a number of the generals who played an active role in returning Buhari to power in 2015 have fallen out with him and are now actively supporting Atiku. This group is still quite influential and its support valuable – that was why Atiku went to extraordinary lengths to court them. Yet, it was the coincidence of the common threat that they face in a Buhari re-election that made their reunion inevitable.

The rich among the generals are maddeningly rich and still, well, dangerous. But there is also the risk of over-estimating their influence. Since 1999, there has been a steady decline in their power and influence, a process instigated and ferociously pursued by former President Olusegun Obasanjo.

Their influence has waned progressively to the point where military generals have been exposed and a number of them are standing trial for allegedly diverting funds meant for the war against Boko Haram.

There is yet another army whose pro-Atiku motive was not fully accounted for in The Economist forecast. That army is corporate Nigeria. In almost every election since the Obasanjo days, corporate Nigeria has continued to play a prominent role in deciding who becomes president. The Economist is correct that this group tends to be more comfortable with Atiku, but to attribute that to his pro-market lip service is to be economical with the truth.

Atiku is weak, very weak, on corruption; he is our own version of Jacob Zuma, and The Economist may pretend not to know, but that’s why the corporate Nigeria likes him. Before Zuma came across the word, “state capture”, the Obasanjo-Atiku government had launched a privatisation regime which was as audacious in its attempt to liberalise the economy as it was capricious in its corrupt enrichment of the Obasanjo fans club – a club in which Obasanjo and Atiku were major actors and beneficiaries.

The full story of Pentascope and Transcorp – both whited sepulchres from the that era – may yet be told some day.

It’s also interesting that the newspaper thinks that the election will be a two-way race. I doubt it. With 29 other presidential candidates in the race a number of them fighting tooth-and-nail for every single vote, the combined effect of their presence could affect the outcome in the tight race ahead.

My forecast is that, once again, the oracle has its humble pie already cut out for it. No need to lose sleep.

OUR POSITION Rape, Ochanya’s death and need for justice The rape to death of a 13-year-old pupil of Federal Government Girls College (FGGC), Gboko, Benue State, Elizabeth Ochanya, by her aunt’s husband and his son, Andrew Ogbuja and Victor Ogbuja, respectively, has now brought to the fore the danger of rape and other social evils in the society Elizabeth Ochanya , who was said to have battled Vesico Varginal Fistula (VVF) and other health complications at the Benue State University Teaching Hospital, Makurdi, finally died at the Ultimate Care Hospital, a private hospital in Otukpo, Benue State.

Her death followed allegations of severe and continuous rape by her aunt’s husband and his son. It is instructive to note that the aunt was the late Ochanya’s guardian.

Ochanya lived with the Ogbujas since she was five-year-old. But the situation took a frightening dimension when the minor, who was then eight-year-old, was first raped by her guardian’s son in 2013. As is the modus operandi with such of his ilk, Victor warned Ochanya never to disclose the infamous action to anyone. The sordid and horrific carnal knowledge of the minor went on for a long time as Victor slept with Ochanya from 2013 to 2015 until he was caught by his younger sister.

The sister dutifully reported the matter to their father, thinking that Andrew would act as locos parentis to Ochanya and ensure justice.

But the randy father, after scolding his son, took his place and continuously raped Ochanya.

He was said to have sexually abused the poor girl from both the vagina and the anus. The despicable acts from both the father and his son was Ochanya’s lot until she was diagnosed of having Vesico Vaginal Fistula (VVF) and other related deceases.

When all hope seemed lost, her rescue came, albeit a bit late. Ochanya was forced to confide in her mother in June this year, who queried her sister and her husband. As expected, the couple denied the allegation.

After five months of undergoing treatment for VVF, Ochanya gave up the ghost on October 17, 2018, We feel more saddened that her death was caused by VVF and other related diseases that arose from the continuous sexual abuses by a 51-year-old lecturer in the Department of Catering and Hotel Management, Benue State Polytechnic, Mr. Andrew Ogbuja, and his son, Victor, a student of the Federal University of Agriculture, Markurdi.

We are of the opinion that the incidences of rape have continued to occur because the country is not doing enough to curb it. The act in itself is bad, but worse when minors are the victims. To imagine the mental torture the deceased went through in itself should be a torture to sane minds, especially women.

One however wonders how these things happened under the roof of Mrs. Ogbuja without her knowledge. We are suspecting a foul play and wickedness on her part and we are of the view that she also has serious questions to answer. She should not be left out of the crime.

We also seize this opportunity to condemn the “loud silence” of victims and relatives when a rape has taken place. If rape is a crime of aggression with the sole aim of having sexual intercourse without the consent of the other person, then we must not keep quiet.

The shame and stigmatisation of rape victims have been going on for long and it has not done the womenfolk any good. Statistics of incidences of rape cases available has shown that if the country (especially the lawmakers, security agencies, Trade Unions and NonGovernmental Organisations) do nothing drastic, soon the magnitude will so increase that every home will become a potential victim.

The time for parents to stop taking things for granted is now. From the look of things, our children are no longer safe with uncles, cousins, nephews, nieces, and even people of the same faith. It is Elizabeth Ochanya today, who knows who would be next victim?

To have carnal knowledge of a little girl through the anus and vagina since she was eight is unimaginable and a crime against humanity, especially the womenfolk. We urge the judiciary and security agents not to sweep this very case under the carpet.

The Judiciary, Benue State Ministry of Justice, Civil Society Organisations and all stakeholders must ensure that the randy lecturer and his son (now at large) are brought to justice. They must ensure that Andrew Ogbuja, his wife and son are charged before the proper court, prosecuted and sentenced accordingly.

APC alleges fraud in N80bn Bayelsa airport project Mathew Dadoya, Abuja The Bayelsa State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has alleged that the state airport project reportedly scheduled for inauguration soon is a cesspit of fraud.

APC said that the project was a “fraudulent scheme put up by Governor Seriake Dickson to facilitate the siphoning of state funds.”

APC State Publicity Secretary, Doifie Buokoribo, in a statement on Thursday in Yenagoa, alleged that the N80 billion plus Bayelsa airport project was built at vastly inflated costs, making it “clearly the most expensive airport project in Nigeria, as none of the 26 owned by the Federal Government or the eight owned by States is near that figure.”

According to the APC, Governor Henry Seriake Dickson collected a N40 billion credit facility from a commercial bank to commence work on the project as against the initial estimated cost of N40 billion.

“The Bayelsa State Governor himself

disclosed in Amassoma, Southern Ijaw Local Government Council, on 26 May 2018 that N80 billion had already been spent by the State Government.

“Add to the new figure the loan interest of N32 billion, and the cost comes to N112 billion,” the party stated.

The APC said that the airport was economically unviable as it lacked vital intermodal network for easy accessibility.

The opposition party in the state described “the project, which has taken a heavy toll on the welfare of civil servants and the infrastructural needs of the state, as “symptomatic of a vision that is not only deficient but also diseased.”

“We know it as a matter of fact that state governments that built airports in the past are unable to sustain them and want the Federal Government to take them over.

No self-respecting, patriotic and honest Nigerian should be associated with this kind of fraudulent project,” it further stated.

The statement reads in part: “While work on the airport project proceeded unhampered, the State Government ceaselessly complained about paucity of

funds to meet what it termed infrastructure needs of the State.

“State-owned tertiary institutions, namely, Niger Delta University, Isaac Jasper Boro College of Education, Sagbama, and College of Health Technology, Otuogidi, have been repeatedly shut down following prolonged industrial actions by workers and demonstrations by students as a result of mass retrenchments and over 200 per cent increase in tuition and related fees.

“At NDU, for instance, where the State Government never undertook a single project from 2012 till 2017, the monthly subvention was slashed from N400 million monthly to N200 million monthly.

“The University Management was directed to generate funds by whatever means to augment what the Government provided. “Astronomical increase in fees for regular and part-time students could not take care of the shortfall, so mass retrenchments followed. Those retrenched, like their counterparts in the mainstream civil service on half pay, could not afford the fees of their children and wards.”

Short News Group says protest over pipeline surveillance jobs unjustified Akam James, Yenagoa Some former Militant’s groups involved in the protection of oil pipelines within the six states of the Niger Delta region have faulted the staged protest over alleged hijack of surveillance jobs by an indigenous company, Ocean Marine Solutions Limited.

The company is owned by Captain Idahosa Okunbo, under Oil Mining Lease (OML 30) in Delta State.

The protesting youths, who are said to be sponsored, claimed that the surveillance job by the Ocean Marine Solutions Limited had infringed on their jobs.

The group, after an enlarged meeting of leaders in Delta State condemned in strong terms the recent protest to Government House, Asaba Delta State over pipeline surveillance jobs by some ex militants describing them as purely misguided elements.

$8.1bn MTN fine: Face your core duties – Group tells Senate Tom Okpe, Abuja A Group, Buhari Media Organisation (BMO) has told the Nigeria Senate to pay more attention to its legislatives duties rather than dabble into issues that are strictly within the purview of the executive arm of government.

The Buhari Media Organisation (BMO) gave this admonition in its reaction to the Senate resolution on the fine imposed on telecommunication company, MTN and advised the Senate to desist from interfering with the executive in running of state affairs but to concentrate more on its duties of providing adequate legislation for the growth of the nation.

In a statement signed by its Chairman Niyi Akinsiju and Secretary Cassidy Madueke in Abuja on Monday, the group pointed that the communication company found to have violated extant laws; must abide by the consequence of such actions, as MTN violated currency regulations by sending $8.1 billion abroad illegally.

BMO advised the Senate to refrain from assuming executive powers in the management of State affairs and focus on forming more quorums so members can attend to key national issues and give value for money being spent on them.

Alleged N4.2m fraud: EFCC arraigns FSMLT Provost, one other Doosuur Iwambe, Abuja

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), has arraigned Nkereuwem Etukudoh and Henry Oyibo, before Justice D.V. Agishi of the Federal High Court, Jos on a six-count charge bordering on conspiracy and obtaining money by false pretence.

Etukdoh was alleged to have in 2014, as Provost, Federal School of Medical Laboratory Technology (FSMLT), Plateau State, perpetrated the fraud with Oyibo, a Desk Officer in the Budget Office of the Federation.

They were alleged to have diverted about N4.2 million obtained from the Federal Government under the pretext of organising a Budget Preparation Training for the Account/Budget Call Officers of FSMLT. The offence contravenes Section 8 (a) of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Related Offences Act, 2006, and is punishable under Section 1 (3) of the same Act. Counsel to Etukudoh, Solomon Umoh,

SAN had prayed the court to grant his client bail “pursuant to Section 35 and 36 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 and Sections 158, 159 and 162 of the ACJA 2015”.

On his part, the prosecuting counsel, Y.Y. Tarfa, opposed the application for bail, arguing that the defendant may jump bail.

Martin Atojoko, counsel to Oyibo, however, countered Tarfa’s opposition, arguing that “the second defendant adhered to all the conditions of the bail terms by the respondent, EFCC” prior to the arraignment.

Justice Agishi, thereafter, adjourned to November 19, 2018 for ruling on the bail application, and ordered that the defendants be remanded in prison custody.

Etukudoh is also facing similar charge before Justice D. D. Longji of the Plateau State High Court, where he, alongside Yusuf Samuel, Accountant, FSMLT; Ernest Demtoe, Secretary of Tenders Board, FSMLT; Goodluck Echewa and EsioUdoh, both contractors of FSMLT, are being prosecuted for a 15-count charge of conspiracy, diversion of funds to the tune

of N359 million.

The charges reads in parts: “That you, Dr Sunday Nkereuwem Etukodoh being the Provost and Chief Executive Officer of the Federal School of Medical Laboratory Technology, Jos and Ilemona Henry Oyibo being the Desk Officer in the Budget Office of Federation, on or about the 29th day of December, 2014 in Jos, within the jurisdiction of this Honourable Court, with intent to defraud obtained the sum of N1,138,900 (One Million, One Hundred and Thirty-Eight Thousand Nine Hundred Naira) from the Federal Government of Nigeria via Account No: 1004577071 domiciled at Zenith Bank, Plc in the name of Ilemona Henry Oyibo, under the pretence that the said amount is consultant fee for organising Budget Preparation Training for the Account/ Budget Call Officers of the Federal School of Medical Laboratory Technology, Jos which pretence you knew to be false and thereby committed an offence contrary to Section 1 (1) (a) of the Advance Fee Fraud and Other Fraud Related Offences Act, 2006 and punishable under Section 1 (3) of the same Act”.

A 50-year-old father of three, Tunde Ogunlade, has been apprehended by men of the Ondo State Police Command for allegedly raping an “autistic” girl (name withheld).

Ogunlade was arrested after reportedly having carnal knowledge of the victim at Oke-Aro area of Akure, the Ondo State capital.

Parading the suspect at the state headquarters, the Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Femi Joseph on Thursday said that Mr. Ogunlade, a carpenter took advantage of the 20-year-old girl’s condition.

He disclosed that the mother of the victim, Mrs. Oluranti Ogunbiyi, reported the incident to the police.

“The man (Ogunlade) came to the neighbourhood for a carpentry work and decided to take the advantage and challenge of the autistic child.

“He gave the young girl a fifty naira note and had the carnal knowledge of her.

“It is unfortunate that this man who is happily married with three kids descended to abuse of moral prolificacy by taking advantage of this autistic child.

“It is shame but the law will have to take its cause and he will have his days in court by telling the Judge of how he committed the crime.

“As usual, he has blamed the act on the devil but beyond that we would request him to prove that beyond all reasonable doubt.

2019: We have no preferred candidates — OPC

The Oodua Peoples Congress (OPC) says it has no preferred candidates among those jostling for political offices in the 2019 general elections.

The group however said it would support candidates that truly believe in its ideal of restructuring.

Publicity Secretary of the group, Mr Yinka Oguntimehin, who reaffirmed the OPC’s belief in restructuring said that Nigeria could only get it right when all the federating states developed at their own pace.

Oguntimehim in a statement issued in Lagos, reiterated the need for stakeholders in the country to raise issues that have direct impact on the nation’s development as the 2019 presidential polls gets closer.

He said that Nigerians deserved the right to vote for political parties or candidates with something reasonable to offer the nation.

“Nigeria can only get it right with restructuring.

“The coming election will definitely come with various challenges and opportunities and some of the opportunities will be for us to align with those ready to bring to the table, a policy direction that can impact our lives positively.

“Not only that, it is our duty as a group to promote the ideals of restructuring,” he said.

He added that the beauty of restructuring was encompassing, stressing that the best could only come to Nigeria through restructuring.

The House approved the pooling of N4.2 billion from recurrent expenditure component of the 2018 Budget and the re-allocation of the funds without any alteration to the budget size.

Meanwhile, the new principal officers are: Suleiman Maito (Majority Leader ); Abayomi Akinruntan (Deputy Majority Leader ) and Kazeem Suleiman (Parliamentary Secretary).

The House also reaffirmed the suspension of 15 members who purportedly impeached the Speaker, Oleyelogun and his Deputy, Mr Ogundeji Iroju.

Recall that 15 members of the House had last Friday impeached Oloyelogun and Iroju as speaker and deputy speaker respectively for allegations bothering on gross misconduct and maladministration.

Iroju who represents Odigbo state constituency 1 said the House has remained peaceful since the suspension of the aggrieved members, and thereby warned the suspended members against acts that could cause crisis within the House and the state at large.

A’ Court rules on convicted Nyame, Short News Dariye’s appeals today Ajulo faults INEC over APC primaries Andrew Orolua, Abuja The Court of Appeal, Abuja Division will today November 16, 2018 decide the appeals filed by former Governor of Taraba State, Reverend Jolly Nyame and his Plateau State counterpart Senator Joshua Dariye.

Both ex - Governors Nyame and Dariye are serving 14 years imprisonment terms each following their conviction by the High Court of justice of the Federal Capital Territory, that found them guilty of corruption and embezzlement of public funds while they were in control in their respective states.

Both Nyame and Dariye

who were serving senators when they were convicted have lodged separate appeals challenging their convictions.

Court of Appeal will deliver judgment on the appeal filed by Dariye at 9am, while Nyame’s fate will be decided at 11am.

The High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, which sat in Gudu District of Abuja, presided by Justice Adebukola Banjoko had on Tuesday, June 12, 2018 sentenced former governor Joshua Dariye to 14 years’ imprisonment on charges of criminal breach of trust and criminal appropriation of the state’s funds running to over N2bn.

The ex-governor was convicted on 15 out the 23

counts preferred against him in July 2007.

Similarly, Nyame was convicted on a total of 27 out of the 41 counts preferred against him. He was sentenced to various terms of imprisonment which run concurrently with the highest being 14 years term for offences bordering on criminal breach of trust, criminal misappropriation and receiving gratification as a public officer.

Shortly after the sentences were passed, the two former governors, in separate appeals approached the Appellate Court and averred that the judge erred in law in convicting them. They also prayed the court to discharge and acquit them of the criminal charges.

Andrew Orolua, Abuja An Abuja based legal practitioner and human rights activist, Dr Kayode Ajulo, on Thursday, faulted the Independent National Electoral Commission, (INEC) for accepting names of all candidates presented by the All Progressives Congress for the 2019 general elections when majority of them violated the electoral Act and party Constitution.

Ajulo contended that INEC should have rejected all APC candidates to further demonstrate its commitment to the nation’s democratic settings.

The former National Secretary of the Labour Party (LP) and Founder, Egalitarian Mission for Africa, made the declaration following the crisis that is trailing the APC primaries and its candidates nationwide.

In a statement on Thursday, Ajulo argued that, “when a given political association or party cannot operate a fair and just internal democracy, especially when it cannot organise acceptable party primaries within its fold, it is futile to wait on such party to tolerate any meaningful interparty electoral contest”.

“What the ruling All Progressives Party (APC) called party primaries, what it gave Nigeria in the near past, failed ordinary tests of a civilised democracy.

According to him, INEC, patently compromised the very provision that birthed its existence, looking aside while the Constitution and the electoral law are being violated.

Enugu Assembly passes legislative financial autonomy bill Moses Oyediran, Enugu Members of the Enugu State House of Assembly, Thursday, unanimously passed into law the bill for a law to provide for the management of funds of the Enugu State Assembly and for related matters, House Bill no. 3, 2018, into law.

Ezeugwu explaining how they came about the report said they met on several occasions and did a painstaking job on the bill before making public their resolutions.

Following the submission of the report, Ezeugwu moved that the House be dissolved into a committee of the whole house to deliberate on the report after which the bill passed the final and the third reading.

Commenting on the importance of the bill, Speaker of the House, Hon. Edward Ubosi said that the bill was a package for the House so that they will not be dependent for their financial obligations.

‘Gov Emmanuel’s 2019 Budget will alleviate poverty, diversify economy’ Isaac Job, Uyo The Akwa Ibom state commissioner for Economic Development, Labour and Manpower Planning Barrister Ekong Sampson has applauded Governor Emmanuel for timely presentation of next year appropriation bill to the state House of Assembly for consideration.

Addressing correspondents in Uyo yesterday, Ekong

Sampson described the budget as being capable of alleviating poverty and enhance industrialisation drive in the state.

He observed that the appropriation bill presented to the Assembly will strengthen political strategy and provide the basis for growth as well as innovation in the state.

“The state is moving from a civil service status to industrialised setting” “Principally, it is one budget that accommodates the concern

for diversification and security as it addresses major concerns and the future of Akwa Ibom people.”

The commissioner further described the 2019 appropriation bill as a ‘budget of realism’ with the capacity to create opportunities for the citizens in employment, commerce and investment.

Barrister Sampson noted that the timely presentation of the budget was an indication that government was planning ahead of time for benefit of the people.

A member of the ECOWAS parliament, Hon Suleiman Lasun, has declared that the regional law-making body was merely an advisory body with no legal powers.

The Nigerian lawmaker stated that the seemingly lack of visibility of activities of the parliament was informed by the powerlessness of the regional parliamentary body.

Hon. Lasun disclosed these in Abuja on Thursday, at the ongoing second ordinary session of the ECOWAS Parliament.

He stated that the parliament was on the verge of harmonizing all institutions under it, and recently just had the power to carry out oversight functions.

“ECOWAS Parliament as it stands today is not fully operational as a parliament.

“We are only here as an advisory body, it’s only about a year that we just had the opportunity of enhancing the parliament status.

“We now have the opportunity to make input and examine the budget as from 2019, and do some oversight functions.

“That is why you see that resolutions made here are not binding.

Hon. Lasun expressed fear that it may take a longer time before the parliament was accorded its deserved status, stating that the differences of language and democracies would pose a challenge to genuine integration.

Rivers PDP, APC bicker over Wednesday’s shooting at sensitisation rally Amaka Agbu, Port Harcourt Following the shooting by unknown gunmen at a voters sensitization rally of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, at Ipo community, Ikwerre local Government Area of Rivers State, Wednesday, the party and the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the state are now engaged in accusations and counter accusations over the attack.

The state chapter of the PDP, led by Chief Felix Obuah, in condemning the attack described it as unwarranted, stupid, and primitive.

In the statement signed by Mr. Jerry Needam, the Special Assistant to the PDP state chairman on Media, the party said that more shocking and devastating, was the reaction of the APC in the state particularly the alleged remarks of Chief Chidi Lloyd, an APC chieftain “who rather than show concern for the callous and cowardly act, retorted that the PDP should look inwards in search for the perpetrators of the act.”

2019 election: BudgIT decries cut in Nigeria’s health, education sectors budgetary allocations Motolani Oseni, Lagos BudgIT, has decried the recent move by the National Assembly suggesting that the 2018 budget is undergoing virement that will re-allocate the meagre resources meant to improve the condition of health and education sectors for the conduct of the 2019 elections.

BudgIT’s Principal Lead, Gabriel Okeowo, in a document obtained by The Daily Times, stated that the consensus is that Nigeria is underfunding the health sector – and the immediate goal of government was to raise budgetary allocation to 15 percent of total budget size. Rather, the virement hopes to take away N8.05 billion from the health sector. It is disheartening that political actors will ignore the growing numbers of people losing lives due to the poor state of Nigeria’s health sector.

He explained that the cut in the education sector allocation is also a case in point. Policies, strategies, and effective budgeting practices needed to meet the needs of students, attract qualified teachers, and develop industry-centric curriculums especially in the public education system are critical at this time.

Nigeria’s population growth is a serious pressure point. With children under 15 years of age accounting for 45 per cent of the 186 million population, the burden of education could become overwhelming and quality which is abysmal could drop even lower.

“The continuous apathetic attitude of government towards key sectors that impact most on human development and especially the rights of children is gradually ravaging the future of the nation. Almost everyone in government and out of government agrees that Nigeria’s education sector is poorly funded. It is thus shocking that despite

the meagre allocation seen in the 2018 budget, attempts are now been made to even slash budgetary allocation to the education sector even further by N10.2 billion to fund the 2019 elections.”

He stated further that government across all levels, executive and legislature in particular have consistently demonstrated a lack of commitment to improve the life of the average Nigerian.

Priority has always been given to key areas of the budget that affect the legislature.

“Nigeria’s legislative arm is one of the highest funded in the world and their budget is given a statutory priority which implies that key budgetary allocations that are pro-poor takes a backseat. This for us at BudgIT is unacceptable and in fact a demonstration of insensitivity on the part of the legislature especially at such a time when the country is reported to be the poverty capital of the world.

Sectoral allocation to education, health

and social interventions should not be sacrificed for the elections.

“We observed that areas within the 2018 budget need trimming like the over bloated budget of the National Assembly was not touched, opine that even if the Executive made the proposal to cut critical funding to vire election expenses, the National Assembly should search within and apply cuts to their budget, fulfilling their powers within the appropriation framework.

“It is thus incumbent that the virement made to the 2018 budget on certain sectors be rejected by all. With currently terrible health and education indicators and a recent report by OXFAM puts Nigeria at last position out of 157 countries on the “Commitment to Reducing Inequality Index”. We believe actions such as this to severely cut funding in social investments are expanding the inequality gap in Nigeria and needs to be addressed.

SEC to tackle identity theft, extends multiple subscription deadline Motolani Oseni, Lagos In a move to ensure more investors regularise their accounts thereby reducing the volume of unclaimed dividends in the Nigerian capital market, the Securities and Exchange Commission, SEC has announced an extension of forebeafance on such accounts to December 31, 2019.

This among others was part of the decisions reached at the end of the 3rd Capital Market Committee, CMC meeting held in Lagos, Thursday.

Recall that the SEC had announced December 31st 2018 as deadline for regularisation of multiple accounts.

Briefing newsmen, Acting Director General of the SEC, Ms. Mary Uduk said the committee considered the issue and decided its best to give investors more time to regularise their multiple accounts in order to derive the benefits from their investments.

She said “I am delighted to report that on the lingering issue of multiple subscriptions and forbearance for shareholders with multiple accounts,

the CMC agreed that the forbearance window should be extended by another year from the December 31, 2018 deadline previously communicated. We expect investors to take advantage of this opportunity to claim their unclaimed dividends and bonuses”.

Uduk also announced a two-pronged approach to addressing the intractable challenges associated with transmission of shares related to the estate of deceased investors.

“The first step would involve engagement with and enlightenment of the Probate Registry with a view to providing solutions to the cumbersome process of transmitting shares.

“Secondly, Rules would be developed around the time frame for transmission shares and the fee structure” Worried by issues of identity theft in the capital market, the Acting DG said the Commission will work with other major stakeholders in setting up a committee that will look into and proffer solutions to problems around identity management in the Nigerian capital market.

Similarly, Uduk said as part of efforts

to eliminate underhand dealings, the Commission is set to take enforcement actions against any persons engaged in trading in the shares of public unlisted companies outside a recognised securities exchange as provided by the Rules.

On the need to grow the market for trading in securities on unlisted public companies, she said the Commission is making concerted efforts in collaboration with CAC and other stakeholders to assist public companies that are yet to register their securities to do so without much difficulty.

“In furtherance of the commitment to develop a vibrant Commodities eco-system, the Commission has commenced the implementation of measures to strengthen regulatory capacity by establishing a Commodities Division. Other recommendations of the Committee have been broken down into implementable plans with set timelines.

“An interesting development in the commodities sector is the innovative solution developed by AFEX Commodities Exchange Limited (AFEX) and its partners regarding the use of

Blockchain Technology to streamline the process of financing agriculture to Smallholder farmers and other players in the commodities markets” she added.

In order to boost the e-dividend mandate and Direct Cash Settlement initiatives, Uduk said the Commission gave a commitment to the market that it would engage NIBSS (Nigeria InterBank Settlement System) on behalf of the capital market community to facilitate identity validation and account validation in an effort to enhance market processes.

She also disclosed that the market provided an update on the Electronic distribution of annual accounts by public companies to shareholders and it was reported that the shareholders have largely accepted the new initiative and are willingly providing their email addresses. It was agreed that further sensitization would be carried out by stakeholders to enlighten shareholders on the benefits of the initiative.

The CMC meeting is a periodic gathering of stakeholders in the Nigerian capital market to discuss capital market related matters.

The National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure (NASENI) has partnered with the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) to provide relevant guides in its plan to produce Made-in-Nigeria helicopters.

Besides, the agency charged with the responsibility of fast-tracking home-initiated industrialization, has placed an order for a Dynali H3 easy flyer sport ultralight helicopter for the purpose of reverse engineering.

Executive Vice- Chairman/CEO of NASENI, Prof. Muhammed Sanni Haruna, spoke in Lagos yesterday during a courtesy visit to the NCAA headquarters where he was received by the DG, Capt. Mukhtar Usman.

The EVC disclosed that in line with the agency’s mandate in Aviation and Aeronautics Technology, the agency reached out to potential partners and manufacturers of helicopters.

He said Dynali Helicopter Manufacturer was found to be a willing partner, adding that the Dynali Helicopter was selected because its technology is easier to copy, learn, domesticate and modify.

“They are willing to build the capacity of our staff for maintenance, repair, assembly and manufacturing of helicopters in Nigeria”, he said.

The EVC assured that before the end of 2019, staff of the agency would have mastered the art of building the helicopters, adding that the agency had in the past produced unmanned aerial vehicle (drones).

He said, “Research and Development is not one or two - day affair but we have facilities for reverse engineering.

“In fact we have a centre which we call rapid prototyping centre. Any machine that you want to reproduce, we have facilities, advance manufacturing equipment for that matter on how to give us something fast but then aviation is a high safety and security industry that certain things, we must wait for certification from here (NCAA) before we proceed further.”

“We are confident that through your support and that of other stakeholders,the made-in Nigeria Helicopter project will be a success. ln-line with NASENl’s mandate in Aviation and Aeronautics technology, Ministerial and Presidential directives to the Agency to develop made-in-Nigeria helicopters, the Agency reached out to potential partners and manufacturers of helicopters and eventually found Dynali Helicopter Manufacturing Company of Belgium as a willing partner to fast-track technology acquisition and domestication.

The company is the manufacturer of a wide range and models of Dynali H3 easy flyer sport ultralight helicopters. The company produces the simplest, easy to maintain and operate helicopters of high quality and of international standards.

Dynali Helicopter was selected because their technology is easier to copy, learn, domesticate and modify. They are willing to build the capacity of our staff for maintenance, repair, assembly, and manufacturing of helicopters in Niger’ The helicopter has been produced, tested and ready for delivery to Nigeria.

In order to take delivery of the aircraft, we have requested for a clearance to import the aircraft from the Ministry of Transportation through our supervising Ministry Ministry of Science and Technology). The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) is an important stakeholder in this effort and that is why we reached out to you for support and guidance.

EFCC to partner BPE to ensure transparency in privatization process Motolani Oseni Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ibrahim Magu has expressed the Commission’s readiness to partner with the Bureau of Public Enterprise, BPE, in ensuring transparency in the dispose of government properties.

Magu said this while receiving the Director- General of the Bureau Alex A.Okoh and other management staff of the Bureau who came on a courtesy visit to the EFCC New Headquarters, Jabi, Abuja.

The EFCC boss, also said the Commission is ready to carry out due diligence on any entity who has shown interest in the purchase of government properties to prevent corrupt elements from using the privatization process as a means of laundering illegally acquired funds.

“We will be willing to support you against any threat that will discourage investors from coming into the country and to achieve this, I think we need to establish a common desk for a seamless synergy. Once again I seize this opportunity to thank the BPE and I’m happy to tell you that the baby you nurtured has now outgrown its parents as the EFCC today can boost of a befitting Head Office complex which was made possible by our determination and support from the current administration.”

Magu thanked the BPE for their support during the evolution of the Commission saying the One Hundred Million Naira received from the BPE as take off support helped the Commission to start its operations. “If we hadn’t gotten that money, we wouldn’t have been able to kick start”, he confessed.

The money, he said, brought some seriousness into EFCC’s operations and “we started arresting those fraudsters who hitherto were seen as ‘untouchable’ moving around with convoys and sirens. Many of them were arrested and jailed and the Commission recovered substantial amounts of money on behalf of so many victims from them which were restituted to the victims.”

Earlier in his remarks, Okoh commended the EFCC for the achievements it has recorded over the years especially in the sanitization of the nation’s economy which he said has increased investors confidence.

The DG who was decorated in the course of the visit by the EFCC Boss as Anti-Corruption Ambassador said that he was in the Commission to solicits the EFCC’s support in ensuring that the activities of the BPE are better monitored. He further explained that the activities of the Bureau reflect the principles of transparency that the EFCC is known to propagate.

NAAE wants more engineers licensed, trained Chukwuemeke Iwelunmo Members of the National Association of Air Traffic Engineers (NAAE) have called for the training of its personnel in the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency NAMA to enable them to get licensed.

The President of the NAAE Engr Ishaya Dung while heralding the association’s Annual General Meeting said a large number of Air Traffic Engineers engineers in NAMA were yet to be licensed as a result of lack of training associated with paucity of funds.

Engr Dung explained that as professionals, ATSEP licensing, a rating of personnel and training remained their greatest challenge saying that they have not had enough training.

According to Engr Dung, Air Traffic Safety Electronics Personnel (ATSEP) is an ICAO term for the technical staff involved with the creation and support of the ground-based electronic hardware and software systems used to support air navigation and Air Traffic Management.

He noted that after training at the Nigerian College of Aviation Technology Zaria, the engineers will be licensed by the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority Though he revealed that some have been trained, Dung noted that more needed to be trained adding that they were over 400 NAAE members across the country with some getting licensed.

Speaking on the choice of the 2018 theme ‘Aviation Safety ATSEP Link, the NAAE boss said there was a need for all the professional bodies in NAMA to work assiduously to achieve one goal of ensuring the safety of the airspace adding that NAAE remained the bridge between Pilots and air traffic controllers.

Engr Dung while commending the Management of NAMA for the provision of reliable and functional navigational aid in the country, urged the flying public to continue to have confidence in the system with the dependable surveillance equipment.

“Our equipment is reliable, working well that is why we have successful takeoffs and landings virtually in all our airports but there might be a few challenges especially in the aspect of communication. But the government has done a lot in the area of communication and it has improved on flights.”

Reps accuse shipping coys of owing NIMASA N10.8bn Henry Omunu, Abuja The House of Representatives on Thursday raised the alarm over how indigenous shipping companies are shortchanging the federal government of revenue amounting to $300million (N10.8billion).

The alarm was raised by the House committee on Maritime Safety, Education and Administration which is investigating allegations of non remittance of revenue and ill practices perpetrated by local shipping companies.

According to the House committee, revenue amounting to $300million from the three per cent levy collected on behalf of the Nigeria Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) from international shipping companies have been diverted by their local agents.

Chairman of the House committee, Rep. Umar Bago, said at the resumed investigative hearing

yesterday, that while it was common on the part of shipping firms to receive the three per cent levy on behalf of NIMASA from their parent companies, regrettably the local partners convert such monies to their personal use.

He added the local shipping agents at times change their corporate names, directors and decline to remit the collected funds to the nation’s consolidated fund account.

Rep. Bago said that “you collect monies from international shipping companies, sit on the money, change your company names and directors, and do business with the funds without remitting to the consolidated revenue fund”.

12 local shipping firms, some of which have denied the allegation of wholesale indebtedness to government are currently being investigated by the House.

The indigenous shipping firms are GAC, Daddo Maritime Services, Blue Sea, Divine Marine, Transoceanic Support Services, Inchcape Shipping

and Maersk.

Others are AlRaine, Hull Blyth CMA CGMDelmas, Joe Eboje and Peak shipping.

However, in their testimonies before the committee, the shipping companies denied being indebted to NIMASA as alleged, claiming that reconciliation of debt profile with the regulatory agency was continuous.

According to the firms some payments made to NIMASA were not receipted, a development they said has jeopardized the reconciliation process.

But piqued by the revelations at the hearing, the committee vowed to invoke Executive Order 6 and issue a warrant of arrest on the chief executive officers of any of the erring companies, who may have made away with the country’s monies and those who declined to honour and appear before the House panel.

Moreover, it further warned that firms indicted will be handed to the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) for prosecution.

How CBN lifted 487 businesses with N407.36bn in 8 years Mathew Dadiya The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has supported 487 business owners with N407 billion through its Commercial Agriculture Credit Scheme (CACS) between 2009 and 2016.

The agriculture credit scheme that was introduced in 2009 is a sub-component of the federal government Commercial Agriculture Development Programme (CADP) financed from the proceeds of the N200 billion seven-year bond raised by the Debt Management Office.

The CBN’s CACS evaluation and impact assessment report that was released on Wednesday disclosed that “Since inception till December 2016, the sum of N407.362 billion has been released to 487 projects (436 valued at N327.362 billion to private projects while 51 valued at N80.0 billion to State Government Projects).

“The total releases from the CACS Receivables Account remained at N199.831 billion while the total releases from the CACS repayment account stood at N207.531 billion.

“The cumulative fund repaid by banks into the Repayment Account stood at N225.009 billion in respect of 445 CACS projects out of which 109 projects had been fully repaid at end of December 2016.”

The reported noted that administration of structured questionnaires to beneficiaries with a retrieval of 191 from businesses that benefited from a total of N147.87 billion between 2009 and 2016.

“State governments also served as channels to specific groups of beneficiaries. Participating states were requested for details of groups and individuals that drew on the loan through them, and focused group discussions were scheduled in three of the states.

“Over the years, 2011 and 2015 recorded highest

disbursements of CACS loans,” the report by CBN stated.

The report stated that most, 79.1 per cent, of the 191 businesses are private liability companies, 7.3 per cent were government owned, 6.8 per cent sole proprietorships and 4.2 per cent public liability companies.

On CACS loan utilization by beneficiaries, the report disclosed further that, “most (80.2 per cent) of the funds were applied to agriculture and agriculture related activities, by 82.7 per cent of the firms, while 19.8per cent (N29.2 billion) of the funds may have been applied in the areas not intended under the Scheme by 33 or 17.3per cent of the beneficiaries.”

The fund is made available to participating banks to finance commercial agricultural enterprises at a maximum interest rate of nine per cent.

“As hoped, 85.4 per cent of the firms undertook one form or the other of expansion in their operations on receipt of the CACS loan”, the report added.

TraderMoni: Lagos farmers’ laud FG’s empowerment programme Motolani Oseni As TraderMoni team continued moving across the country, over one thousand peasant vegetable farmers in Iyana Iba Council Development Area of Lagos have lauded the empowerment programme’s impact on their businesses.

The empowerment programme, which is championed by the federal government of Nigeria, but driven in partnership with the Bank of Industry (BOI) in disbursing interest-free loans that ranged between N10,000 to N100,000, which is expected to be paid back after six months.

The beneficiaries were so excited over the disbursements and expressed how the loans will help to improve and boost production on their farmlands.

The farmers who have beds of Spinach, Pumpkin leaves popularly called Ugwu, Spring onions, Cabbage among others crops, expressed gratitude to the Federal government for the initiative of giving petty traders loan without collateral.

The President of Vegetable and Fruit Association in Lagos State, an ex-service personnel, Mr. Suleiman Akanni, who said the farmers contribute primarily to the economy of the state and the country at large, promised that

the farmers would use the loan to buy seedlings and fertilizer to improve and boost production on their farmlands.

On his part, the Coordinator of the Government Empowerment Enterprise Program, Mr. Nwagba, assured traders in Lagos that Trader Moni initiative which had been in existence for two years is a continuous exercise stressing that any trader who had registered but not credited yet would soon receive bank alert.

The Vice President Professor Yemi Osibajo was received at the market by the Vice Chancellor of the Lagos State University, LASU, Professor Lanre Fagbohun among other dignitaries and artistes.

Promote, project Nigeria’s unity, Bayelsa deputy governor tells IPAC The Bayelsa State deputy governor, Rear Admiral Gboribiogha John-Jonah, Rtd, has charged political parties in Nigeria, under the auspices of the Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC), to promote, protect and project the unity of the country, despite their political affiliations.

Rear Admiral John-Jonah, gave the charge, when the National Legal Adviser of the Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC), Barrister Kenneth Udeze led members of IPAC’s electoral committee as well as the newly elected members of the Bayelsa State chapter, to pay him a courtesy call at Government House, Yenagoa.

He stressed that, in other climes, national issues are not taken for granted by both the ruling party and the opposition, so as to ensure that, development is enthroned and called on politicians to encourage their followers to imbibe the spirit of unity of purpose.

He noted that the division in the country has never been more pronounced as it is presently and expressed joy that, the various political parties are working together

to prove that the country can be better administered.

The deputy governor, who congratulated IPAC for conducting a free, fair and credible election in the state, urged those who have emerged victorious to be magnanimous in victory and the losers, to give the needed support to the new executive, stressing that, the essence of holding political office is to offer service.

Rear Admiral John-Jonah recalled that, after the 2015 gubernatorial election in the state, Governor Seriake Dickson made the move to bring everyone together, because of his conviction that, after elections, state and nation building should take center stage.

He acknowledged that, due the governor’s experience and robust approach, divergent views of the various political parties are accommodated, leading to stability of the state and the Niger Delta at large.

The Bayelsa State deputy governor, however assured that, the state government will remain committed to the development of the state by completing all projects targeted at

N6.5bn Akwa Ibom funds: We are vindicated, says Group A President Muhammadu Buhari support group, Re–Elect Buhari Movement (RBM) has declared that the discovery by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), of the alleged withdrawal of N6.5 billion in cash from the Akwa Ibom State coffers is a vindication of its stance on the running of the state.

The cash was said to have been diverted from a derivation account to the imprest account of the Ministry of Justice/Office of the Accountant–General in the state.

The group in a statement signed by its Convener, Mr. Emmanuel Umohinyang, noted that the latest development may just be a tip of the iceberg in the series of plundering of Akwa Ibom State resources since 2015.

The statement reads: “We recall that we have been shouting on the top of our voices about the level of development of Akwa Ibom State since the present administration took over in 2015.

“We did not just raise our voices because we hate the governor, but we did so, after comparing the quantum of resources that has accrued to the state and the level of work done so far.

“In the last three years, we make bold to say that the present administration has put Akwa Ibom State in a reverse gear as there is

nothing on ground to justify the humongous resources so far received under Governor Udom Emmanuel.

“One cannot but be worried that the state by virtue of being an oil– producing state received far higher allocation than many of its counterparts across the country. In neighboring states, of Abia, Rivers, Cross Rivers and others, we can see projects across the states, yet our people are yearning for theirs.

“This is not the first time we are shouting corruption even before the EFCC first discovered N1.45 billion was wired into slush accounts.

“The RBM therefore appeals to the EFFC to ensure that every kobo stolen from the state’s coffers till date be recovered forthwith. And those indicted should also be arrested and prosecuted in the court of law to serve as a deterrent to others. This is in view of the fact that unlike the ‘uncommon transformation era’, Akwa Ibom people are seriously suffering under the government of “Mr. Integrity” and cannot bear the pain any longer.

“The RBM however appeals to the people to continue to maintain the peace despite recent revelations about the state’s resources as their suffering will surely end in the coming months.”

impacting positively on the people, despite the fact that, it has less than 14 months left of the administration.

Earlier, the leader of the IPAC delegation, Barrister Udeze had commended Governor Dickson for his giant developmental strides in the education, health, infrastructure and other critical sectors, as well as for the payment of monthly stipends to political parties in the state.

He recalled the role the body played in ensuring that the mandate of Governor Dickson was not scuttled at the Governorship Election Tribunal in Abuja and urged political parties to give support to any government that prioritises the welfare of the people.

Similarly, the newly inaugurated IPAC Chairman in Bayelsa State, Pastor Eneye Zedougha, expressed gratitude to Governor Dickson for supporting IPAC in conducting successful elections, which was adjudged the most legitimate so far across the South-South and South-East Geo-Political Zones.

Pastor Zedougha, however appealed for an upward review of the monthly stipends to political parties in the state, the provision of a befitting secretariat and a vehicle to enable them run affairs of the body effectively.

2019: Nigeria can only get it right with restructuring, OPC insists The Oodua Peoples’ Congress (OPC) has reaffirmed its belief in restructuring, saying Nigeria can only get it right when all the federating states develop at their own pace.

Speaking yesterday at a briefing with newsmen, Publicity Secretary of the group, Mr. Yinka Oguntimehin, said as the 2019 election draws nearer, it is very important for all the stakeholders in the country to raise issues that have direct impact on the development of the nation, noting that Nigerians deserve the right to vote for political parties or candidates that have something reasonable to offer the nation.

“Nigeria can only get it right with restructuring. The coming election will definitely come with various challenges and opportunities, and some of the opportunities will be for us to align with the yearnings of the mass of the people on who becomes the president of this great nation, and is ready to bring to the table a policy direction that can impact their lives positively, not only that, it is our duty as a group to promote the ideals of restructuring.”

The OPC publicity scribe added also that the beauty of restructuring is encompassing, stressing that the best could only come to Nigeria through restructuring.

Gani Adams

“It is sad that we are still borrowing money to finance the budget, particularly, at a time when election is about three months away. It is sad that majority of Nigerians are suffering with the abundant human and material resources that abound in the country. It is sad that Nigerians are suffering at all levels, yet we need to promote ideals that have human face and that is what restructuring is all about,” he said.

Oguntimehin, however, disclosed that the group has no preferred candidates among the various political parties that are jostling for political offices, especially, the position of the

Nigerian president, adding that OPC will gladly support candidates that truly believe in the ideal of the group.

“We are very much on top of the current situation in the political milieu. We are watching the political developments as they unfold in the country. We believe in the struggle to promote the cultural identity of the Yoruba race. We believe in the struggle to liberate the Yoruba nation as it is being promote consistently by our amiable leader, Aare Gani Adams, therefore, we will never compromise our values as a self determination group,” he explained.

Super Eagles avoid Benin airport, fly direct to Johannesburg from Asaba

The Super Eagles will now fly out to Johannesburg, South Africa direct from Asaba today (Thursday), not through Benin City for Saturday’s 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying fixture against the Bafana Bafana of South Africa.

Gernot Rohr’s men were earlier scheduled to travel to Johannesburg for the game from Benin City airport, it was gathered from a top official of the team.

The players and their officials will fly out of

the Asaba Airport to Johannesburg at 5pm Nigerian time today (Thursday).

The Super Eagles had their last training session at the Stephen Keshi Stadium on Thursday morning ahead of their departure in the evening.

The training was behind closed doors with Rohr not willing to give out any hints of his team’s plans for the game.

The Super Eagles will have a feel of the FNB

23

Stadium Johannesburg on Friday afternoon.

They will travel back to the country on Saturday and will commence preparations for next Tuesday’s friendly encounter against the Cranes of Uganda at the Stephen Keshi Stadium.

The three-time African champions are currently top of Group E with nine points from four games, and need just three more points to guarantee their qualification to the 2019 AFCON in Cameroon.

Ahmed Musa: Bafana Bafana don’t scare us

Super Eagles Captain Ahmed Musa has been quoted saying, hosts, Bafana Bafana of South Africa hold no fear for his Nigerian side ahead of weekend’s clash at the Soccer City.

The team will leave for the airport in Benin City from their training base at Asaba on Thursday in high spirits according to the Al Nassr forward Musa.

“I can tell you that we are wellprepared.

“It is not going to be a different game.

“We are taking it like every other game that we have played‚” Musa told reporters.

He adds the players are relaxed

as‚ needing only a point from their final two qualifiers to secure a berth in the finals in Cameroon next year‚ even a defeat to Bafana would leave them with a home match against Seychelles in which to book their passage.

“We are not under any pressure‚ because we are confident of securing qualification for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations.

“As a team‚ we are united and play for each other. That is the most important thing in football.

We know them very well‚ just as they know us too.”

Nigeria are now at full strength after the late arrival of Francebased midfielder Samuel Kalu‚ reportedly because of problems

securing a visa for SA. Coach Gernot Rohr says his side will go out to secure Afcon qualification‚ which does not necessarily mean they will push hard for a win‚ with just a point needed to secure their place in Cameroon.

“Our mission in Johannesburg is simple: qualify for the Africa Cup of Nations. We are not thinking of anything else.

“We want the ticket in our pocket before the final match day‚” he told his association’s website.

The fixture this weekend is part of an intriguing double-header between the two nations‚ for who there is no love lost on the football pitch.

Super Falcons in Ghana for 2018 AWCON Nigerian Super Falcons flew into Ghana’s capital city, Accra, on Wednesday on their way to Cape Coast for Group B attrition of the 11th Women Africa Cup of Nations.

The Super Falcons flew aboard an Emirates Airline flight from Abidjan, where they had camped for the past eight days at the Sol Beni Sports Centre, into the Ghanaian capital before the trip to Cape Coast, where they play South Africa’s Banyana Banyana in the opening match of Group B on Sunday.

A team of 21 players and 12 officials arrived in Cape Coast.

Chairman of the Nigeria Women

Football League and Member of the NFF Executive Committee, Ms Aisha Falode, will join the team on Friday.

Winners of the competition in 1998, 2000, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2010, 2014 and 2016, the Falcons are looking for a ninth title, alongside a ticket to the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup finals in France. The top three finishers in Ghana will fly Africa’s flag in France next year summer.

Coach Thomas Dennerby is confident the Cup holders will be in the final match scheduled for the Accra Sports Stadium on 1st December.

Anthony Joshua may miss Deontay Wilder, Tyson Fury fight

A money-spinning megafight between Anthony Joshua and either Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury may have to wait for at least another year.

Fury challenges the Bronze Bomber for his WBC world heavyweight title in Los Angeles on December 1.

There will be clamour for the winner to face AJ, who holds the WBO, WBA and IBF titles and who returns to the ring at Wembley on April 13.

But a first fight for the undisputed heavyweight title this century is likely to be put on hold regardless of who wins at the Staples Center.

Should Fury upset the odds, Wilder is likely to trigger an rematch clause, while WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman has confirmed that if the American triumphs, he may have to defend his title against mandatory challenger Dominic Breazeale.

‘The WBC convention was very clear in terms of looking for the ultimate goal (for) the winner of the fight to do the fight with Anthony Joshua,’ he told Boxing News.

‘Our ruling was clear to state that if that fight is to proceed, to go in that direction then the mandatory (situation) will be solved. That’s been clear and that’s been put on paper in black and white.’

‘Because that’s our obligation, we have to support it. That is a fight the world wants to see. However WilderFury is a major fight in itself. That fight is as big as any fight. I’m very happy at the moment we’re going through in the heavyweight division.’

Breazeale has worked his way back into contention for a world heavyweight title since being stopped

by Joshua in June 2016.

If the American earns a shot at the winner of Wilder vs Fury, that will

put AJ’s hopes of facing either rival back to late 2019 at the earliest.

Should both Fury and Wilder be ruled out of the April 13 showdown, the winner of Dereck Chisora and Dillian Whyte’s December 22 rematch would be the favourite to fill the slot.

VAR will be introduced to Premier League from 2018-19 Premier League clubs have agreed “in principle” to the introduction of Video Assistant Referees (VAR) technology from next season.

The decision comes after clubs voted unanimously against its use in England’s top flight during the 2018-19 campaign, instead agreeing to “continue advanced testing” of VAR. At a Shareholders’ Meeting on Thursday, clubs were provided with an update on the non-live VAR trials being undertaken by the League and Professional Game Match Officials (PGMOL) this season.

Key learning from VAR’s use in the FA and Carabao Cups, and other leagues across the world, were discussed in detail.

The Premier League’s non-live testing programme will remain in place for the rest of this season, with a continued emphasis on those Saturday afternoons which have several matches being played concurrently, and developing a clear protocol for communicating VAR decisions to fans.

The League will now formally make a request to the International Football Association Board and FIFA to use VAR next season.
