In a unanimous ruling, the tribunal held that Atiku and PDP application was brought out of the time allowed by law, therefore, it lacked merit, adding that the petitioners cannot be allowed to reopen arguments especially to file counter affidavit to the objection raised by APC because the mandatory seven days allowed by electoral Act to do so has elapsed.

Buhari orders DisCos to brace up Short News Lawan appeals to NLC to shelve as electricity supply drops Mathew Dadiya, Abuja President Muhammadu Buhari has urged Electricity Distribution Companies (DisCos) to work harder in injecting more resources and technical expertise to improve supply of electricity across the country, following increasing complaints of poor power supply nationwide. The President assured the companies that the federal government will sustain efforts in building transmission infrastructure. Buhari gave the charge on Wednesday when he received a delegation of Edo state Council of Traditional Rulers and chiefs led by Oba Ewuare II at the State House, Abuja. He called on Nigerians to show more understanding with the DisCos and the federal government as more expertise and resources would be committed to improving electricity. The President said the supply of gas for power transmission has improved overtime and with the collective efforts of the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) and the Discos, the power situation would

be made better. “We are building infrastructure. We are doing our best, but obviously, our best is not good enough yet,’’ he said. Buhari commended Oba Ewuare II and the Edo sate Traditional Council its intervention in human trafficking by tracking down and discouraging facilitators and rehabilitating victims that were returned. “I am pleased that you have taken up the fight against human trafficking and I know the effect of your intervention will be felt beyond our borders,’’ he added. On the Benin-Abuja Road project, the President assured the Edo state leaders that the ministry of works will give more attention to the project when ministers assume duty. President Buhari told the elders that the federal government was able to achieve food security with teamwork between the Central Bank of Nigeria, the ministry of agriculture, states and other stakeholders including farmers, promising that more will be done to diversify and strengthen the Nigerian economy. Earlier in his remarks, Oba Ewuare II congratulated the President for winning the 2019 elections, urging him to utilise the opportunity

to improve the livelihood of the people, particularly issues that directly impact on development like electricity and road infrastructure. “We pray the almighty God to help you put in place a formidable team of men and women of proven integrity that will join you to take this nation to the next level. Considering that Edo state is the only APC state in the South-South, may we crave Mr. President’s indulgence to have two slots,’’ he said. The traditional ruler said the situation of electricity in the state has worsened over the years, adding that “may I, on behalf of the people of Edo state, use this platform to further appeal to Mr. President to intervene in this pathetic situation.’’ The traditional ruler, who listed the Benin-Abuja Road as a project that will help Edo indigenes, said he placed a curse on all native doctors that facilitate human trafficking in the state and the fear of reprisal has yielded positive results. He also appreciated President Buhari for approving the National Festival of Arts and Culture (NAFEST) to be held in Edo state which according to him, will showcase the rich culture of the people and drive his legacy museum project.

planned strike Tunde Opalana, Abuja

Senate President, Ahmad Lawan on Wednesday appealed to the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) to shelve the proposed industrial action due to the alleged delay in implementation of the N30, 000 minimum wage, saying Nigeria cannot stand such action. Lawan made the appeal when the executive of the NLC and the Parliamentary Staff Association of Nigeria (PASAN) led by Comrade Ayuba Wabara and Sunday Sabiyi respectively, paid him a courtesy visit in Abuja. He called for further understanding and patriotism, adding that some states have started paying the agreed minimum wage, adding that “we should not encourage personal issues to overshadow our collective responsibility to nation building. “We will journey with you to ensure absolute implementation of the minimum wage by the federal government.” The Senate President also tasked the PASAN to collaborate with the management and leadership of the National Assembly, urging them to present issue base arguments instead on engaging strike action to press home their demands. He assured his guests that the ninth assembly will not be detracted, but remain focued in pursing growth in every sector of the country. The NLC President, Ayuba Wabba later presented a congratulatory card to the Senate President for his emergence as the chairman of the National Assembly, just as he pledged the commitment and collaboration of the Labour unions to the legislators. Earlier, the Chairman, PASAN, Comrade Sunday Sabiyi congratulated the President of the Senate and the leadership of the Senate on the emergence as the presiding officers of the Senate. He urged Lawan to put in use his wealth of experience as a ranking senator to the service and protection of the interests of the people. Sabiyi used the occasion to table the demands of the parliamentary staff in the National Assembly in implementation of 2018 arrears of 28 per cent and balance of 50 per cent consolidated legislative salary, implementation of condition of service recently approved by the 8th National Assembly, training of staff, health insurance and life insurance premium.

Why does God pour his blessings on bad people? One day, some Christians were having a thanksgiving service. So they started by praising and worshiping God. But as they were doing this, suddenly a battalion of soldiers came into the church. They came right in the middle of the praise and worship. Quietly, they surrounded the congregation. Then their commanding officer gave the charge: “Fire.” They opened up fire and killed everybody in the church. They killed the pastor; they killed the choirmembers; they killed the ushers; they killed all the members of the congregation. Then they left. Paradoxically, the Pastor had been preaching earlier that month about the virtue of not coming late to church. Indeed, he had been saying habitual latecomers are likely to miss some special blessings of God. But that Sunday morning, those who came late were “blessed.” By the time they arrived, the soldiers had gone, so they were saved. Now who were the better Christians; the ones who came early and were killed or the ones who came late and were saved?

Femi Aribisala

No Exemptions From Life My parable is similar to a real case brought to Jesus. Pilate killed some Galileans while they were “in church.” He killed them while they were offering sacrifices to God. Indeed, he mingled their blood with the blood of their sacrifices. “Surely,” the people said to Jesus, “these people must have done something wrong for this kind of fate to befall them. Surely, God would not ordinarily allow people to be killed in church. If people can be killed in church, then the church is not safe.” Jesus completely dismissed this kind of thinking. He asked them: “Do you suppose these people must

have been terrible sinners because this kind of thing happened to them?” “No!” he insisted. Is it right to assume that the people killed must have been worse off than those who were not? “No!” says Jesus. You can make no such assumption whatsoever. (Luke 13:1-9). Solomon says: “Anything can happen to any of us, and so we never know if life will be good or bad. But exactly the same thing will finally happen to all of us, whether we live right and respect God or sin and don’t respect God. Yes, the same thing will happen if we offer sacrifices to God or if we don’t, if we keep our promises or break them. It’s terribly unfair for the same thing to happen to each of us.” (Ecclesiastes 9:1-3). Yes, we often think God is unfair. The Christian says: “I go to church regularly. I sing in the choir. I am a member of the prayer squad. I try to be nice to people. I give to the poor. I try as much as possible to be close to God. Nevertheless, my marriage is a disaster. I have not been promoted in my job for years. The engine of my car just knocked. The landlord just gave me an eviction notice. So what is the point of my faith?” Is God Unfair? God will never create a situation that will encourage any believer to feel superior to others. If you ever feel you are more spiritual than others; that is eloquent evidence that you are not. If you ever feel that there is some spiritual exercise or formula which puts you at an advantage vis-à-vis others, it is eloquent testimony that the exercise is bankrupt. Nothing about true godliness inspires pride. Ask Paul and he will tell you why he received a thorn in the flesh. He says: “Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the

law of faith.” (Romans 3:27). Nothing about godliness gives a believer a superiority complex. It is wickedness and ungodliness that do that. The kingdom of God is never really going to put us in a place of spiritual high-mindedness. It is never really going to situate us beyond the mundane in this world. Jesus never offers us any hope of reprieve in this world. He never offers such hope in the parables. We are not offered such hope even in the life of Jesus himself. At a critical juncture, Jesus was abandoned not only by men, he was also abandoned by God. He gives his disciples a peculiar assurance: “In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33). God is not as interested in changing our situation, as he is in changing us. He is far more interested in changing how we relate to situations. Selective Faith We often question God in trials. When bad things happen to us, we ask: “Why is this happening to me?” Sometimes, we even complain: “I don’t deserve this.” But have you ever wondered why God allows blessings? Do you stay awake at night wondering why something good happened to you? Do you go to God and query him asking: “Why me? Father, why are you showering me with these blessings?” Probably not! Somehow, we believe it is our entitlement as Christians to have a good and pleasant life. We accept God’s blessings, give thanks for them and enjoy them without giving them any further thought. We take it for granted that we are entitled to goodness but not to evil. But then Job asks a pertinent question of his wife: “Shall we receive

good from the hand of God and shall we not receive evil?” The classic Christian answer is “No!” We want the blessings but we don’t want the trials. We are also very selective in the use of scriptures. We often use them to indoctrinate ourselves. A fellowship has not ended unless we recite “the grace” saying: “Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me, all the days of my life.” (Psalm 23:6). But there are other verses in the bible as well. One example says: “Man who is born of woman is of few days and full of trouble.” (Job 14:1). Why don’t we sometimes end our services with such equally valid scriptures? Somehow, we believe our faith should buy us exemptions from the trials and tribulations of this life. “If I know God and I am known of him, then I should not have to go through the paces like other men. I should not have to wait in the queue. I should not have any problem getting a job. I should not have any problem getting married. I should not have any problem with my marriage. I should not have any problem with my health.” And so we believe that prayer will change every situation and circumstance. We fast, we pray, we petition God so that he can remove everything unpleasant from us. But this was Jesus’ answer to Paul when he had a similar presumption. He said to him: “My grace is sufficient for you, for my strength is made perfect in weakness.” (2 Corinthians 12:9). Therefore, Paul says: “Most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore, I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” (2 Corinthians 12:9-10).

Ruga settlement as Coup d’état

Emmanuel Onwubiko

The basic tenets of good governance and constitutional democracy are embedded strategically in the Nigerian version of the text known as the oath of office by the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. These essential elements of constitutionalism are fundamentally obligatory and the moment the holder of this high office deviates from them, it can be assumed to be a grave threat against constitutional democracy. These oaths of allegiance are enshrined in the seventh schedule of the Nigerian constitution of 1999 (as amended) and are as follows: “I, (Muhammadu Buhari) do solemnly swear/affirm that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to the Federal Republic of Nigeria; that as President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, I will discharge my duties to the best of my ability, faithfully and in accordance with the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and the law, and always in the interest of the sovereignty, integrity, solidarity, well-being and prosperity of the Federal Republic of Nigeria; that I will strive to preserve the Fundamental Objectives and Directive Principles of State Policy contained in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria; that I will not allow my personal interest to influence my official conduct or my official decisions; that I will to the best of my ability preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria; that I will abide by the Code of Conduct contained in the Fifth Schedule to the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria; that in all circumstances, I will do right to all manner of people, according to law, without fear or favour, affection or ill-will; that I will not directly or indirectly communication or reveal to any person any matter which shall be brought under my consideration or shall become known to me as President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, except as may be required for the due discharge of my duties as President; and that I will devote myself to the service and well-being of the people of Nigeria. So help me God.” For most constitutional purists, the most underlying element of this salient aspect of the grund norm is the obligation by the president to do the right thing at all times to all manner of people and not to subject official policies and conducts under the pedestrian prisms of ethno-religious interests of the holder. This obligation is sacrosanct, inviolable and indispensable. Any violation of this sacred code can as well be described as a coup plot against the constitution and must never be tolerated due to the inevitable fact that its endurance in the body polity could precipitate anarchy, doom and monumental

disaster to the Fatherland. The Encyclopedia Britannica tells us what Coup d’état is. It says that “Coup d’état, also called Coup, is the sudden, violent overthrow of an existing government by a small group. The chief prerequisite for a coup is control of all or part of the armed forces, the police, and other military elements. Unlike a revolution, which is usually achieved by large numbers of people working for basic social, economic, and political change, a coup is a change in power from the top that merely results in the abrupt replacement of leading government personnel.” The scholars offer more exposition on the concept of coup as follows: “A coup rarely alters a nation’s fundamental social and economic policies, nor does it significantly redistribute power among competing political groups. Among the earliest modern coups were those in which Napoleon overthrew the Directory on Nov. 9, 1799 (18 Brumaire), and in which Louis Napoleon dissolved the assembly of France’s Second Republic in 1851.” They recall that Coups were a regular occurrence in various Latin American nations in the 19th and 20th centuries and in Africa after the countries there gained independence in the 1960s. Why is it necessary that we dwell extensively on the essence of good governance, constitutional purity and the import of the concept of coup? These issues are key to a detailed analysis of the needless controversy called Ruga Fulani settlements which remains an aggressive attempt to force down the throats of unwilling states and worst still, deploy public fund to execute private business interests of an ethnicity as against the OATH OF OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT. This in short is another way of explaining coup plot. The tepid argument made by the presidency in defence of this highly disputed policy goes to show that the officials exercising the functions prescribed in the constitution in section 5 are either bereft of the faintest idea of what the mandate of their executive office is or they are bent on carrying out what can be described as a coup against the constitution. The desperation exhibited by the presidency populated majorly by Hausa/Fulani-born officials goes against the basic norms and tenets of constitutional democracy and amounts to a desecration of the constitutional oath of office administered on president Muhammadu Buhari who is obliged by law to exercise his office as the president of all Nigerians and not of his ethnic group which is Fulani. He submits accurately that a candidate for the election into the office of the president cannot be deemed to have been duly elected until he has

more positive votes than negative votes cast at the election for the president. It is doubtful, he says, if he can be deemed duly elected under sections 133 and 134 if he has no negative votes cast against him. The effect of the provision he affirms, is that negative votes against the president and are thus protected. If, as it observed, such votes are protected, any prejudice or penalty against them will clearly be inconsistent with the exercise of executive powers of the Federation. Dr Abayomi noted that It is not just that the nation is recognized as one constituency for the election of the president under section 132(4), but the president’s responsibility to all the members of that constituency is by the provision of the section not only inherent, but also required. The simple truth is that the push by president Buhari to carry on with the implementation of this discriminatory policy of establishment of Fulani communities all across Nigeria fundamentally breaches the constitution, the Land Use Act of 1978 and can best be described as an attempt at forceful land grab similar to a coup d’état. R. K. Sapru in his book “Public Policy: formulation, implementation and evaluation”, provides us with empirical proof to draw up a conclusion that the policy on setting up Ruga Fulani all across Nigeria does not qualify as public but a selfish policy which is inherently unconstitutional. Writing on the idea of public vis-à-vis the concept of public and policy, the aforementioned scholar stated as follow: “It is first important to understand the concept of ‘public’ for a discussion of public policy. We often use such terms as ‘public interest’, ‘public sector’, ‘public opinion’, ‘public health’, and so on. The starting point is that ‘Public Policy’ has to do with those spheres which are so labeled as ‘public’ as opposed to spheres involving the idea of ‘private’. The concept of public policy presupposes that there is an area or domain of life which is not private or purely individual, but held in common. Public dimension is generally referred to ‘public ownership’ or control for ‘public purpose’. The public comprises that domain of human activity which is regarded as requiring governmental intervention or common action. However there has always been a conflict between what is public and what is private.” “W.F. Baber argues that the public sector has ten key differences from the private sector: I. It faces more complex and ambiguous tasks; II. It has more problems on implementing its decisions; III. It employs more people with a wider range of motivations;

IV. It is more concerned with securing opportunities; V. It is more concerned with compensating for market failure; VI. It engages in activities with greater symbolic significance; VII. It is held to stricter standards of commitment and legality; VIII. It has a greater opportunity to respond to issues of fairness; IX. It must operate or appear to operate in the public interest; X. It must maintain minimal levels of public support above that required in private industry.” However, the good thing about the national conversations around the theme of the illegality of forcing down our throats the concept of Ruga Fulani settlements is the ability of most Nigerians to easily decode the lies hidden in the entire scenario which are now manifesting. One of such lies already exposed is that the setting up of Ruga will not benefit any other Nigerian but Fulani since Ruga inherently implies Fulani settlement. The big lie that the policy is meant for livestock farmers is an egregious falsehood that is now self-evident. My mother is a livestock farmer and does not require Ruga settlements for her private business at government expense. Professor Godwin Sogolo, a philosopher once wrote about the journey of such lies to self deception in his iconic article in The Guardian “From lying to self-deception” and a meticulous reading of this December 4th 1986 publication of The Guardian newspaper tells contemporary observer that Ruga Fulani settlement as being packaged and propagated is a progressive journey by the presidency from lying to self-deception. Hear him: “Fortunately, the world is not like that. Our world allows some intrigue; we are able to lie without being detected; we can trick, cheat and deceive others; better still, we can deceive ourselves. So, to some extent each of us wears a mask of false life, some thick enough to shield completely the real self. We always pray that the mask does not slip, although if it does, some would find it more difficult than others finding where to hide.” “The problem with lying is that a small bit, once told, always demands coating. And for the fear that the new layer would wear out we put yet another plaster and so on and so on until we find ourselves totally engulfed in a false life”. This journey of progressive lies about cow colonies to the self deception of Ruga settlements is now a Notorious lie.

Editorial Commentary NEWS Ihedioha to refurbish, reconstruct dilapidated schools in Imo Imo State Governor, Hon Emeka Ihedioha, says his government is set to refurbish and reconstruct all dilapidated schools in the state as part of efforts to improve quality of education. Ihedioha made the promise on Wednesday at the final of the 2019 NNPC Annual National Quiz Competition in the South East Zone held at Government Secondary School, Owerri. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the theme of the 2019 NNPC quiz competition was “Sustaining the Gains of Corporate Social Responsibility.” Ihedioha said that a committee had been set up to identify the dilapidated schools, while the committee members had already started work to meet up with the mandate. Ihedioha, who was represented by Mrs Margret Obi, the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Education in the state, commended NNPC for its vision of encouraging the study and knowledge of science subjects in Nigerian primary and secondary schools and urged them not to relent. He described science as the stepping stone to development among nations of the world and which had impacted on people’s live and took them around the globe. The governor also described education as one of the major thrusts of his government and as such he had concluded plans to refurbish, reconstruct and equip dilapidated infrastructure in various schools in the state. He commended the participating schools and students for making it up to the zonal stage and wished them well in their future endeavours. The NNPC Group General Manager (Public Affairs Division). Mr Ndu Ughamadu, said the national quiz started in 2000 with the aim of picking the best students in science subjects from the 774 local governments in the country. He said the NNPC had empowered beneficiaries through monetary rewards and scholarships to further their education. Ughamadu, who was represented by Mr. Iheanyi Nnochiri, NNPC Deputy Manager, Corporate Social Responsibility NNPC, said that the corporation’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities covered projects in health, infrastructure, power generation, agriculture, sports and arts. He said that the intervention in the education

sector was the most important CSR activity of the corporation capped by the annual quiz competition. Ughamadu said the NNPC understood the value of education in the growth and development of any nation. “Furthermore, science, technology, engineering and mathematics education (STEM education) which the NNPC National Science Quiz Competition encourages, plays a key role in sustaining our economy by providing us with tools to understand the world around us and innovations to solve everyday problems. “Science is everywhere in the world and around us. Technology is continously expanding into every aspect of our lives, both the mundane and the complex. “Without enginnering, there would be no houses to shelter us, no roads or bridges and certainly no cars and mathematics is the very foundation of them all,” he said. Ughamadu explained that the 2019 edition of the competition and the 17th in series was aimed at building on the gains already recorded in the previous editions. He commended the participating schools, parents and teachers, saying that: “we are all striving to do our part to build capable leaders who can lead our nation into tomorrow; leaders who will see that Nigeria’s potential is actulised.” NAN reports that five students, representing Anambra, Enugu, Abia, Ebonyi and Imo participated in the NNPC quiz competition with Imo, Ebonyi and Abia coming top at the competion and would be representing the south east zone in the final competition coming up in September in Abuja. Imo and Ebonyi took the first position with 55 marks each and were followed by Abia which took the second position with 50 marks. Miss Adaeze Ozuzu, a SS2 student from Logos International Secondary School, Oru East in Imo, on behalf of the participating students thanked the NNPC for initiating the programme. She said the competition jwould encourage the study of science. Ozuzu expressed gratitude to God, her parents and the school for helping her come this far in her academics and advised other students to always work hard and never give up on their dreams.

NASS most porous parliament in the world – Gbajabiamila Mr Femi Gbajabiamila, Speaker of the House of Representatives, has described the Nigeria’s National Assembly ”as the most porous parliament in the world.” Gbajabiamila made the remark at the Wednesday’s plenary while responding to a motion under matters of urgent public importance by Rep. Dederi Isa (APC-Nano) in Abuja. He stressed that the dignity of the National Assembly and its surroundings cannot be compromised. The speaker said it is worrisome the way and manner people gain access into the complex unchecked. He, however, assured that efforts are ongoing to checkmate the ugly trend as a Committee on Internal Security of the House would be constituted to address the issue. ”The issue of the porousness of the chamber is a nagging issue. This is the most porous parliament I have ever seen in the world. ”So we are making effort to ensure the internal security here and that is why we are having a new Committee on Internal Security of the House in place to address the issue. ”The dignity of this place starts from the gate, not just the chamber,” he said. Earlier, Isa, who represents Karaye/Rogo Federal Constituency, had raised a motion, expressing displeasure over difficulties being faced by lawmakers in gaining access into the assembly complex through the gate.

Citing a section in the House Standing Rules which says ”a member of the legislature shall not be obstructed or hindered from gaining access into the legislative house,” he said it is time such act is nipped in the bud. ”Similarly, when you are going out, you face the same challenge. This should be addressed,” he said. The lawmaker, though acknowledged that the speaker is doing his best to strike a balance among members, complained that his attention is often on some members when motions were being taken. ”Mr Speaker, we know you are doing your best to be fair to all but sometimes, your attention focuses more on the central side than our side. ”Yesterday, several members and I raised our hands to make contributions but you did not look our side. I want this to be addressed and as members, we should be treated equally,” he said. Responding, Gbajabiamila assured lawmakers that under his watch, the leadership of the lower chamber would always uphold the principle of fairness and equity as its watchword in dealing with members. ”I have always assured that in this House, equity and fairness is our watchword. ”According to the rules here, we move from one aile to the next aile to maintain an order while taking contributions. We don’t pick anyhow and once we passed an aile, the chances that we are not going to come back is high,” he explained. (NAN)

OUR POSITION Out-of-school children and future leaders Nigeria with the current figure of 13.2 million out-of-school children occupies first position on the table of countries with the highest number of out-of-school children in the world certainly calls for sober reflection. More worrisome is the fact that the figure instead of decreasing in the last few years is rather increasing. This statistics which represent approximately 20 per cent of the world’s population of such children is an alarming and ticking time bomb that will spell doom for the country if urgent steps are not taken by relevant authorities to address the situation. We observe that governance in Nigeria has become a circle of family business where politicians secure the future of their children to the detriment of poor Nigerians. Also, inadequacy of funding, lack of teaching tools and modern classrooms, poor numerations and the acute shortage of qualified teachers are some of the factors leading to the fall in the standard of education in Nigeria. Recently, the Multiple Indication Cluster Survey report for 2016 (MICS 2016) revealed that out of the 11.5 million of out-of-school children in Nigeria, Northern states have the highest rate with an average of 69%. The latest data MICS 2016 showed that out of the 11.5 million out-of-school children in Nigeria, 7.5.million (69%) are from the Northern part of the country while the North East has the largest number of out-of-school children followed by the North West. With this number, Nigeria accounts for more than 1 in 5 number of out-of-school children globally and 45% of this number are from West Africa. Within the huge number of the out-of-school children, girls are the majority especially in Northern Nigeria. Education indicators for Northern Nigeria are however different from the Southern part of the country. Nigeria’s future prosperity depends on producing children who are well prepared to take their right place in the society but unfortunately, a large number of Nigerian children are at risk of deprivations of the basic social amenities. Most of these children are situated in the rural areas and hard to reach communities. Majority of them are living in conflict and communities under emergencies, and it has been difficult taking basic amenities to them. All children have the right to better

life, an opportunity to survive, develop and reach their full potentials without discrimination, bias or favouritism which cannot be over emphasised. We also observe that the rising number of children engaged in street trading in our major cities is becoming a worsening menace. The problem is further exacerbated by rising poverty and general insecurity in the country. In the North, the ravaging insurgency has added to the problem. If drastic measures are not taken to correct the situation, things would only get worse. Let us learn from France, Britain, Canada and other advanced countries which built the foundation of their countries and rapid technological advancement on good and quality education. It must be pointed out also that in these countries, teachers are amongst the best paid workers. Unfortunately, the reverse is the case in Nigeria. Having failed to fund public education, the children of the poor are roaming the streets, hawking goods while the rich are educating their children in private schools at home and abroad. But to the detriment of the society, the abandoned children of the poor are being recruited to criminality by terrorists, kidnappers and other criminal gangs. The irony of the crisis is that a government, which claims that it lacks money to fund education is spending several billions of naira to fight insurgency, kidnapping, armed robbery and banditry. We believe that an uneducated population will be locked in a cycle of poverty for their entire lives. Additionally, these children could constitute the next generation of suicide bombers and militants. We are of the opinion that it is high time the government and relevant stakeholders address the problem frontally. It is sad that government’s free education for all pupils up to the first nine years of schooling has not been fully implemented. There is the need to increase the percentage of the annual national budget that goes to education. Schools should be adequately funded and the enabling environment provided for teachers and support staff to deliver functional and effective education to the children. We submit that the improvement of the classroom environment is key to lowering the growing figures of out-of-school children in the country. We also wish to state that teachers must not only be well trained, their welfare must be prioritised while the federal and state governments should muster the political will to adequately fund education.

Senate flays importation of soap Short News Okowa swears-in 8 commissioners noodles, jacks up import duty Constitutes ad hoc committee on media

Tunde Opalana, Abuja Concerned with the need to protect local manufacturing industries, the Senate has moved against the continuous importation of soap noodles into the country. It appealed to the federal government to review upwards the current 10 per cent import duty on the importation of soap noodles to save the local industry in particular and Nigeria’s economy in general. This resolution is sequel to the adoption of the motion on the need to review the import duty on soap noodles sponsored by Senator Barau Jibrin (Kano North) and five others. The Senate established that the federal government in order to boost local production of soap noodles needs to increase the import duty from 10 per cent to 35 per cent, adding that the increase in import duty made it unprofitable for soap manufacturers to import soap noodles. This policy initiative, it observed resulted in soap manufacturers making N420 billion investments in setting up manufacturing lines to produce soap noodles locally while also creating 250, 000 jobs in the country. In his lead discussion, Sen. Jibrin said that recently the federal government made a downward review of the import duty from 35

per cent to 10 per cent and that the downward review will lead to massive importation of soap noodles into the country, thereby having a negative impact on the national economy. After a thorough deliberation of the motion, the single prayer of the motion was amended and it was resolved that the government should review the import duty upward from its current 10 per cent without placing a ceiling of 35 per cent. According to the Senate, the effects of the reduced import duty include reduction in government revenue inflow, collapse of the soap noodles industry and its attendant unemployment, serves as impediment to government’s efforts towards developing local sourcing and self- sufficiency, discourages investors and puts pressure on the forex reserves. The Senate expressed worry that the negative impacts of the policy on the economy that has just emerged from recession and the expected huge job losses if the policy is sustained will further destroy, degrade and imperil the chances of the economy recovering for sustainable stability. Co-sponsors of the motion are Senators Yahaya Abdullahi (Kebbi North), Oloriegbe Yahaya Ibrahim (Kwara Central), Gabriel Suswan (Benue North-East) and Mathew

Nosa Akenzua, Asaba

Urhoghide (Edo South). Meanwhile, the Senate yesterday constituted an ad hoc committee on media and public affairs to launder the image of the Senate pending the constitution of standing committees of the upper chamber.

He charged the committee to ensure that activities of the Senate are put in the public view. Responding, the ad hoc committee Chairman, Sen. Adeyeye commended the Senate leadership on behalf of his members for the privilege to serve and promised that though the responsibility is enormous and delicate, members will not disappoint the Senate. He called for adequate cooperation from senators for the committee to succeed.

Delta state Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa on Wednesday at the Government House in Asaba swore-in the first batch of eight commissioners as members of the state executive council. The governor at the swearing-in ceremony said fairness, equity and justice are trademark of his administration that all political appointees must imbibe, emphasizing that his administration has zero tolerance for sectionalism and nepotism.

Okowa, who congratulated the commissioners observed that the expectations of Deltans are high and urged them and other political appointees to see themselves as people who are representing the entire Delta people in the cabinet. “And that you are there to serve their interests because the task before us is huge; we have set the goal of building a stronger Delta predicated on prosperity, peace and progress. “Yes, it is true that each of you was nominated from a local government area, but the moment you become a commissioner, the entire Delta becomes your constituency and as such, you must be fair to all and be responsive to the needs and aspirations of all and sundry,” he said.

Court convicts POS merchant for fraud in Benue Andrew Orolua, Abuja Justice Mobolaji Olajuwon of the Federal High Court sitting in Makurdi, the state capital on Wednesday convicted one Eze Shedrach, a First Bank, Point of Sales (PoS) agent (First Moni) for fraud. The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Makurdi zonal office secured the conviction on a one-count charge bordering on cyber -crime. Trouble started for Shedrach when one of his customers collected N105, 000 from him and issued him an ATM card with which he made an electronic replacement of the sum through his PoS machine. He carried out the transfer not knowing that the ATM card issued to him by the customer was stolen. Shedrach’s inability to find out the status of the ATM card followed his failure to identify the customer properly before the transaction. Investigation by the commission revealed that Shedrach was in the habit of carrying out financial transactions without proper documentation of his customers upon withdrawals. “The withdrawal of N105, 000 done on his PoS machine on April 28 was with a stolen ATM card belonging to a victim, Oodo Rose and could not be traced in his ledger as there is no documentation to that effect. “A complaint of fraudulent withdrawal from Oodo Rose, the owner of the ATM card led to Shedrack’s arrest and prosecution by the EFCC,” the EFCC stated.

Osun pensioners complain over non-remittance of pension deductions Say ‘we are dying of hunger’

Olaniyi Ajibola, Osogbo Teaching and non- teaching staff of primary and secondary schools in Osun state, who retired between July 2015 and July 2016, have carpeted the government for its failure to remit deductions from their salaries to pension their administrators. According to them, this infraction is solely responsible for their economic predicament and has put their lives and that of their families in penury, despite being captured under the contributory pension scheme. Speaking at a press conference in Osogbo, the Osun state capital on Wednesday, their spokesperson, Comrade Adeosun Adegbemiga carpeted the state government for being insensitive to their plights after serving meritorious for decades. “We are appealing to the Osun government to graciously put sufficient funds into the contributory pension scheme as its counterpart

funding and save thousands of our colleagues from dying. “We want the government to know that this category of retirees have not received a dime for over three years, a situation that has made our lives extremely miserable. “We are also appealing to government to release our bond certificates and remit all deductions to our pension administrators after completing the process of our retirement for over three years,” he said. Adegbemiga further explained that the government has contravened the Contributory Pension Law of Osun state as enacted by the state House of Assembly in 2008, over its failure to remit deductions from their salaries to pension administrators. Our reporter recalls that another group of pensioners, who retired between 2011/2012 had on Tuesday and Wednesday last week thronged Osogbo metropolis protesting the non -payment of their pension arrears and gratuity, alleging the diversion of the N6.3billion Paris Club refund released by the federal government

as bail out to the state. Chairman of the group, Yemi Lawal said the present government in the state has not made any efforts aimed at bringing succour to pensioners after the protracted economic predicament they suffered during the last administration of Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola. He further described retirees in the state as the most traumatized in the country, adding that it was unfortunate that they were suffering instead of enjoying their retirement after decades of meritorious service to the state. “It would be out of place for the governor to divert a lump sum of N6.3billion Paris refund which was specifically meant for the payment of arrears of pension and other outstanding debts owed by the government. “Many of our children are out of school because we are unable to pay their school fees; we are indeed in a serious financial mess. The most disheartening part of the issue is that the government has refused to remit its contribution to those who retired under the contributory pension scheme since 2015,” Lawal said

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), Plateau state council has approved the dissolution of all standing committees inherited by the new state executive committee. Also, the state NLC Chairman, Comrade Eugene Manji disclosed that Dalyop Badung has been appointed as acting secretary of the state labour body. A statement signed by Manji, and a copy made available to our correspondent, said that the decision was taking at the NLC state executive council meeting held on Tuesday in Jos. Manji said that meeting agreed that an acting secretary be appointed locally for the council since the national secretariat of the NLC was yet to post one to the council as enshrined in the constitution of the congress. The statement stated that the secretary will take charge of all secretarial responsibilities for and on behalf of the council pending the appointment of a substantive secretary by the national secretariat. “SEC agreed that new standing committees be appointed and inaugurated to assist the state action committee in carrying its responsibilities,” Manji said.

The police charged Garuba Abubakar, (30), Emmanuel Owolabi, (30), Taiwo Hassan, (41) and Karibu Imuran, 42, whose residential addresses were not provided with three counts of conspiracy, stealing and obtaining money under false pretences. Prosecution counsel, Michael Unah, told the court that the accused persons obtained $30, 000 from the complainants, Mustapha Akilu and Jonathan Oyarinde, adding that the money was obtained under the pretence of investment and money doubling. Unah told the court that the defendants committed the offence with others still at large on June 10 at No. 27 Kakawa Street, Lagos Island. He alleged that the defendants hypnotised and collected the money from the complainants. Chief Magistrate A.A. Fashola admitted the defendants to bail in the sum of N250, 000 bail each with two sureties each in like sum and further ordered that the sureties must be gainfully employed and must provide two years tax payment to the Lagos state government. The offence, he said contravenes the provisions of Sections 287, 314 and 411 of the Lagos state Criminal Laws, 2015 and thereafter, adjourned the case until July 31 for hearing.

We are part of the communities and whatever we do is for the people. We also look forward to closer partnership and corporation with the communities. “Usually, in most army barracks we have medical facilities whose services are open to the local communities. Those communities close to the barracks enjoy free medical services, however, we know that there are some communities very far from the barracks, so on a day like this, we extend some of this medical services to the communities. “We cannot cover all the communities, so we had to select the communities that need the services the most. We selected the communities that are remote and cannot access the government health facilities or that of the army to render such services to them.” While admonishing residents of Ajegunle community in Ikorodu Road to maintain good hygiene, he said that “we do carry out this medical service periodically, from

time to time depending on the availability of resources. This area is a marshy area prone to malaria and the people need to do some clearing. “To prevent the outbreak of malaria, we are giving out free treated mosquito nets to the pregnant women, nursing mothers and children.

Manufacturers charge SON to stop fake roofing sheets import Kehinde Akinpelu, Ilorin The Galvanised Iron and Steel Manufacturers’ Association (GISMA) has issued a 30- day ultimatum to of the Standard Organization of Nigeria (SON) to address the importation of substandard galvanized roofing sheets into the country. GISMA also alerted the federal government that if in 30 days time, SON and other security agencies fail to address the issue, its members may be forced to offload about 20, 000 workers into the labour market. Spokesman of GISMA, Lateef Bello, in a statement issued on Wednesday, advised SON to always compliment the strides of President Muhammadu Buhari in the fight against corruption in compliance with the industrial roadmap revolution, noting that despite the presence of state coordinators of the agency nationwide, “it is saddening that the nooks and crannies of the country

are flooded with substandard roofing sheet products. “We are aware that the Standard Organisation of Nigeria (SON) held a press conference last week and unveiled its successful seizure of substandard aluminium sheets worth over N200 million from various aluminium companies in Uyo. “SON in its address further confirmed that the minimum thickness of aluminium roofing sheets is 0.4mm. The substandard products with the quality of 0.25mm were however, imported into Nigeria at the detriment of unsuspecting members of the public.” Bello however, condemned SON over its attempt to divert the attention of Nigerians away from its responsibility of providing holistic atmosphere for steel and iron manufacturers, stressing that aluminium roofing sheets is a smaller fraction of the total market. “SON has been silent about the illegalities going on in the endemic smuggling of

galvanised plain and coloured roofing sheets in Nigeria. While we commend SON for the efforts made in the seizure of the goods, we are categorically requesting that names of perpetrators of such unpatriotic acts should be made public in order to reflect transparency and accountability in their operations. “It is our expectation that SON should censor some of its officials suspected to be collaborating with smugglers of substandard products by mounting surveillance and detective operational techniques across its branches nationwide. “Importation of substandard products is tantamount to waging war against the federal government’s policies of discouraging the supply of illicit items capable of causing havoc and shortcharging the citizenry. Sparing anyone involved in this dastard acts amounts to aiding and abetting corruption and exposing the nation to ill-infrastructural deficit and challenges,” he added.

The Enugu state House of Assembly has constituted the chairmen of 23 standing committees to facilitate their legislative functions. Speaker of the state assembly, Edward Ubosi, who made the announcement during the plenary, said that Geoffrey Mbah representing Oji-River Constituency will head the House Committee on Information and Communication while James Akadu of Igbo Etiti West will chair the Education, Science and Technology Committee. The speaker listed other committee heads to include, Chinedu Ukwu of Aninri, Youth and Sports, Hillary Ugwu of Enugu East Rural as chairman of House Committee on Agriculture and Natural Resources. Sam Ngene of Enugu South Urban, health committee; Ethel Ugwuanyi of Igboeze North II, water resources; Iloabuchi Aniagu of Nkanu West Local, Government and ENSEC Matters and Chima Obieze of Eziagu, works, house and urban development amongst others.

ICT expert urges police to stop criminalising youth

An information communication technology expert, Emmanuel Okoye, has asked the police and other security agencies to stop criminalising youth of the country. Speaking at the unveiling of an application that has the capacity to detect cyber-crime in Awka on Wednesday, Okoye said that most Nigerian youth were productive and ingenious and therefore should not be labeled criminals by security agencies. He said as a result of this, he had invented an application that would assist to curb internet fraud, especially in online markets. Regretting that online products were not certified by regulatory agencies, Nonso said this had caused more health challenges like kidney failure, respiratory issues and others to the people. He said that “We have geniuses, people who can engrave their names in the sands of time in the ICT world. The issue is that we are in an environment where crime is rather advertised.”

Justice Venchak Gaba of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory sitting in Kwali has granted bail to the Managing Director and Chief Executive of Galaxy Transportation and Construction Services Limited, Babagana Abba Dalori on the condition that he signs a N5 million bond. Delivering ruling on the bail application filed by counsel to Dalori, Chief Joe Kyari Gadzama (SAN) on Wednesday, Justice Gaba also ordered the Galaxy Transportation chief executive to deposit his international passport with the court. The judge held that the defendant must provide two sureties with N5million each. One of the sureties according to the judge must be resident in his personal house while the other must be resident within the jurisdiction of the court. According to him, the essence of bail was to enable the defendant prepare

adequately for his defence, adding that an accused is presumed innocent until proven guilty. “I have gone through the processes before this court and all the provisions cited therein. When an accused person is arraigned before the court, he is presumed innocent until proven otherwise. “Bail issues are always at the discretion of the court. The essence of bail is to enable the defendant attend to proceedings and to enable him prepare adequately for his defence. “In this light, I have exercised my discretion in granting the defendant bail in the sum of N5million and two sureties in like sum. The defendant is to deposit his international passport in the custody of the court,’’ the Judge held. Earlier, Chief Gadzama (SAN) had prayed the court to grant the defendant bail on liberal terms since he has never had any criminal record in the past. “The applicant has no criminal record. The Economic and Financial Crimes

Commission (EFCC) had invited him and he submitted himself voluntarily. If the application is granted, I assure the court that he will make himself available for trial. “They defendant submitted themselves since March 29, 2019 and have been incarceration since then. He has never interfered with the investigation and he will never interfere with the investigation. I urge the court to grant the defendant bail on liberal terms,’’ he said. Daily Times recalls that the EFCC arraigned the 35-year-old Dalori alongside his Galaxy Transport and Construction Company on a onecount charge, bordering on obtaining N10million through false pretence from one Abubakar Hajara. The defendant pleaded not guilty to the charge, prompting the prosecution counsel, Maryam Aminu Ahmed to pray the court to remand the suspect in prison custody, pending the commencement of trial.

The Bauchi state Governor, Senator Bala Mohammed have been dragged to court by the caretaker committee chairmen of the 20 local government areas of the state over alleged disengagement from service before the expiration of their tenure. A former caretaker Chairman of Bauchi Local Government, Alhaji Chindo Abdu, who spoke to journalists in Bauchi said that they were appointed by the former governor to serve for period of nine months each which would elapse in

RUGA: Create opportunities for all Nigerians, not only for your people, political party tells Buhari Stories by Patrick Okohue

Ituen

Akpabio will return to Senate – Prophet Ituen A Lagos-based Cleric and Founder of the Christ Deliverance Ministries Inc. (CDM), His Grace, Prophet Ekong Ituen, has said that former Senate Minority Leader, Senator Godswill Akpabio will return to the Senate Ituen, has been described as a major Prophet with prophecies that have shaken many high and mighty in the country, whose accuracy in prophecies has made him a force to reckon with in the realm of standard predictions. Speaking with journalists in Lagos, the Akwa-Ibom State born popular cleric, said Senator Godswill Akpabio would return to the Senate. The cleric, whose accuracy on prophecies has made him a force to reckon with,

however said that it may take a while for him to go back to the Upper Legislative Chambers in Abuja. Against that backdrop, the man of God urged the people of North West Senatorial District of Akwa Ibom State not to be dismayed by the temporary set-back, asserting that, “Senator Akpabio will surely reclaim his mandate.” He added that though he wasn’t Akpabio’s fan, some recent events, according to him, has endeared Senator Akpabio to him. Ituen, a major Prophet in Nigeria who had predicted many events that came to pass, urged Nigerians to live in peace with one another.

Bayelsa sets up committee on performance analysis The Bayelsa State Government has inaugurated a special committee to analyze its sectorial performance in the last seven years. The Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Daniel Iworiso-Markson while inaugurating the committee said the outcome of their work will give the government a proper perspective on its achievements in the period under review. Iworiso-Markson charged members of the committee to focus on figures, indices and statistics, saying it will make their work more factual and authentic. According to him the report of the committee will also guide the incoming administration when it takes over in February next year. He said “This committee has become necessary in view of the need for government to keep accurate data of all its achievements in the various sectors. No doubt that we have made tremendous achievements especially in education and health but we lack accurate data. “So with this committee we will have the records to adequately measure the success of the various government policies and

programmes which some members of the public are unaware of. “For instance the number of enrollees for the Bayelsa State Health Insurance Scheme, the number of employment we have made since 2012 and so on. With your work, we can also measure if the standard of living of the people has improved in the state”. The Information Commissioner who christened the committee, Bayelsa State Government Performance Analysis Committee gave the members 60 days to submit an interim report. He expressed confidence that with their experience and being mostly drawn from outside government circle, they will be very objective in their task. Responding on behalf of the committee, the chairman, Dr. Matthew Ayibakuro expressed his appreciation to the Commissioner for finding them worthy for the assignment. He pledged the committee’s readiness to hit the ground running and produce a document that will be a reference point for governments, organizations and scholars in public administration and other related fields.

The President Muhammadu Buhari led Federal Government has been challenged to create opportunity for all Nigerians to grow and prosper and not be selective in the approach to creating opportunities. Giving the advise in a statement, the National Chairman, Alliance for New Nigeria, ANN, Mr. Emmanuel Dania noted that “we believe that the function of government is to provide enabling environment for every Nigeria to thrive and not constrain a part of Nigeria to release their lands under the guise of a settlement programme for cattle breeders. “We believe that there should be opportunities for all to thrive without the interference of government or any group of people or tribe. We believe that the approach is inappropriate. It is robbing Peter to pay Paul. We believe that the Federal Government can approach this differently by creating the settlements within the lands of the cattle breeders and not further push the crisis through coercion because the owners of the lands to be used for these settlements are also Nigerians and are not less that any herdsman. Hence their lands should and cannot be taken for in order to settle some herdsmen. Reacting to the government’s position in creating Rural Grazing Areas (RUGA) in its bid to bring an end to the issues of Fulani herdsmen and herdsmen/ farmers crisis across the 36 states of the federation, the party said though the intention was aimed at achieving peace, but the planned mode of implementation is very offensive to many people.

Buhari The RUGA settlement according to a report credited to the General Secretary of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria, Baba Uthman Ngelzarma, when successfully completed would afford Nigerians the opportunity to fully enjoy the benefits of animal husbandry. The party wondered why despite that this approach has come under grave opposition and has been rejected by southern socio-cultural groups including Afenifere and Ohanaeze Ndi Igbo; as well as the Middle Belt Forum have all rejected the RUGA initiative, the Federal Government insists the approach will bring about the production of pasture grass, water, schools, markets, meat and milk processing and where it can create a sub-sector of the economy and has capacity to create a lot of employment if done properly.

“The concern before every wellmeaning Nigerian that has rejected this approach no matter how noble it may appear, or sound is the variability of every other programme of this present government and it the same government has clearly outlined in its statement on the same issue the concern of the approach being “done properly”. While calling on the government to rescind its position, the party said if that is not done it has the potential of throwing the nation into a bigger crisis through the RUGA settlement programme. “It must be said that the owners of the lands being trampled upon cannot be pushed further to surrender their inheritance and heritage for individuals running their personal businesses and the government believes it’s the best approach to bring about lasting peace.”

NYPF to Senate: Take disciplinary action against Sen Abbo or face our wrath The Chairman of Nigerian Young Professionals Forum (NYPF), Mr. Moses Siasia, has called on the Senate to immediately take a disciplinary action against Senator Elisha Abbo for attacking a woman, saying the organisation would escalate the matter if the Senate fails to do so. He also called on the international community to issue a travel ban on any public official, who violates human rights and undermines democratic values. Siasia, whose organisation was also at the forefront of the advocacy for the passage of the Not too Young to Run Bill into law, said the senator’s action did not represent the character of young Nigerian leaders. Siasia who said these in an chat with another national newspaper added,

“Speaking from the standpoint of an organisation that has been in the forefront of calls for the inclusion of young people in governance, we are saying that this act by this senator does not represent the collective interest of young minds in Nigeria, who want to contribute their quota to the process of governance. “I condemn it in its entirety and I am calling on all stakeholders to do the same. As Nigerian Young Professionals Forum, we call on the Senate President, Sen Ahmed Lawan to take a disciplinary action on the senator. “We would work with the international community to see how they can place travel ban on any public officer found committing such an act. “We are also calling on them

to place a travel ban on him. Any public officer that violates human rights and undermine democratic values should be banned. This is the only way we can bring them to their sense. “It is important to build the capacity of young people before they get into office, is very important. I don’t think that this senator who acted in such a manner had some level of quality parental training. If he had such training he would not have acted in that manner. It is a shameful act. The Senate should set an example with him, if not; we would escalate the issue to a level where the world would be aware of it. “I think the Senator was operating on some substance at the time he acted in that manner.’’

Supreme Court sets aside conviction of army officer 23 years after Andrew Orolua, Abuja A dismissed army officer, Lieutenant Isaac Obadiah Kigbu has regained his commission after 23 years of legal battle. The Supreme Court in a split decision of four to one has acquitted and discharged army Lieutenant, Isaac Obadiah Kigbu who was convicted of stealing and conspiracy to defraud by a General Court Martial in 1996. Kigbu, who was charged with stealing and conspiracy to commit fraud, had appealed the decision of the Court of Appeal Lagos division that upheld the plea of guilty entered for him by his lawyer at the General Court Martial. Delivering judgment on the appeal written by Justice Tanko Mohammed but delivered by Justice Kumai Bayang Akaahs, the apex court upturn the concurrent decisions of Court of Appeal and General Court Martial. The apex court stated that the two lower courts were in error to have relied on the defence counsel’s change of his client plea from not guilty to guilty in convicting the defendant of the alleged offences. Consequently, it set aside the conviction by the General Court Martial and the Court of Appeal in Lagos delivered in 2004. Justice Mohammed upheld the submission of counsel to Kigbu, R.A. Oluwa that the appellate court erred in law when it held that even though

The Nigerian Navy has debunked the hijack of a Palau flagged Tanker, MT APECUS, off the coast of Bonny,Nigeria. Navy said in a statement by the director of Naval Information Commodore Suleman Dahun that the alleged hijack was a mastermind by the crews of the tanker. The alleged hijack of the vessel occurred on April 19, 2019, resulting in the alleged abduction of 7 crew members comprising 5 Indian nationals and 2 Nigerians. A recent report indicated that the 5 Indians were released by the pirates who hijacked the vessel. Nigerian Navy said its investigations show that this alleged hijack was not executed by pirates as claimed in the

Justice Tanko Muhammad

the General Court Martial made an error in not requiring the appellant to repeat the change of plea from not guilty to guilty and to record same, that failure should not affect the validity of the change of plea from not guilty to guilty or render the whole trial a nullity pursuant to Section 218 of the Criminal Procedure Code. Justices Kumai Bayang Akaahs , Pual Galinje and Justice Abba-Aji agreed with the lead judgment.

However, Justice Ejembi Eko delivered a dissenting judgment. He held that a military personnel cannot bring the appeal under criminal procedure code. The appellant, he held ought to have come under the military court martial act in which he was tried. He said the procedure adopted by the appellant amounted to an abuse of court process. Therefore, he dismissed the appeal for lacking in merit.

report but masterminded by a criminal syndicate operating the vessel. Consequently, the Nigerian Navy has arrested one Mr Osimili Adah, the agent of the vessel, who confessed to have masterminded the abduction of the crew of the vessel following a disagreement within a syndicate involved in crude oil theft. Mr Adah had since been handed over to the NPF for further investigation and prosecution. Furthermore, the Nigerian Navy is making necessary efforts to debrief the released crew with the view to obtaining intelligence for future operations towards the arrest of other collaborators in this saga. It will be recalled that in a press release, NIMASA alluded to the involvement of MT APECUS in criminality within Nigerian waters. This was based on the fact that the

vessel had been conducting trading activities in Nigerian waters since 2014 without valid permits or documentation. NIMASA also observed that the vessel has changed name and the flag under which the vessel operated at least 15 times since 1993 and made 4 MMSI changes which all point to her suspected involvement in illegal activities. Furthermore, it was difficult to ascertain the past movement of the vessel as her Automatic Identification System (AIS) was often switched off for weeks, contrary to standard practice. These developments are considered deliberate acts to avoid detection. Notwithstanding, the Nigerian Navy said it remains committed to curbing the menace of crude oil theft and other forms of illegalities in Nigeria’s and the larger Gulf of Guinea maritime domain.

The State Commissioner of Police, Rabiu Ladodo, who visited the scene of the incident some minutes after the attack ordered the arrest of all the suspects. An eye witness account stated that the hoodlums suspected to be cultists attacked policemen on duty at the station and made away with no

fewer than four firearms. The incident caused pandemonium in the area as residents scampered for safety. According to them “Otoko Police Station in Obowo Local Government Area of Imo State was set on fire by cultists probably in their devilish attempt to cart away firearms.”

Solicitor General of the Federation and Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Justice, Dayo Apata, has asked state justice sector reform teams to activate the implementation of Administration of Criminal Justice Act (ACJA) 2015, in their various states. Apata made the request at the opening of a 3-day Network of Justice Sector Reform Teams conference, holding in Ado-Ekiti. The workshop is organized by the Federal Ministry of Justice through the Federal Justice Sector Reform Coordinating Committee (FJSRCC) in conjunction with the Rule of Law and Anti Corruption (ROLAC) project. The FMOJ through the FJSRCC according to Apata, has embarked on a nation-wide train the trainer workshop for the institutions covered by Sections, 29, 33 and 34 of the ACJA, which border on safeguarding rights of prison inmates. He therefore urged State Reform Teams to work with the officers of institutions from their state that have been trained to drive the implementation of the provisions in their state using the adopted templates and protocols. “The templates and protocols set out agreed principles and guidelines for robust information gathering, sharing and management as well as framework for resolving cross institutional problems. “I urge reform teams to activate the implementation of these provisions of the ACJA in their state for the benefit of our people” Apata said. Addressing participants, Apata, who serves as chairman of FJSRCC, said with the support of development partners, the Justice Ministry has continued to drive the process of mobilization and sensitization of justice sector stakeholders to reform the justice system for effective and efficient justice service delivery and the promotion of the rule of law. Apata who was represented at the conference by Mrs Maria Austin Odigie, disclosed that 29 states have constituted justice sector reform teams. He turfed states that are yet to establish theirs to do so without further delay. In his address, Ekiti State Governor, Kayode Fayemi, applauded the Justice ministry and the FJSRCC on the effort to reform the justice system. He was represented by the Attorney General and Commissioner of Justice Ekiti state, Olawale Fapouhunda. “These meetings have provided a practical framework for the sharing of ideas and important developments in the administration of justice in Nigeria. “lndeed in my view, the most important objective of this initiative is the sharing of information and expertise of the situation of justice sector reform in our states. “For us in Ekiti State, the reform of the administration of justice system is not simply a theoretical concept or one that is all about law and justice. “Government accepts that the socio economic survival of our state depends on our ability to evolve a reform agenda that on one hand meets the expectations of our pecple for a sustainable improvement in the quality of their lives while at the same time promotes fair and equal access to justice for all” the governor stated.

Amaju Pinnick charges Super Eagles to return to Nigeria with AFCON trophy The President of the Nigeria Football Federation, Amaju Pinnick, has charged the Super Eagles not to be downcast following their 2-0 loss to Madagascar in their final group game at the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) last weekend. The NFF boss while having a long chat with the Eagles in Egypt. In the company of the Abia State Governor, Okezie Ikpeazu, Mr Pinnick told the players to put the shock defeat behind them and face the remaining games starting with their Round of 16 fixture with renewed vigour. According to Mr Pinnick, if the Super Eagles put in their best going forward and desist from seeing any team as minows, the dream of returning to Aso Rock with the Afcon trophy will be achieved “No team should be underestimated. No team should be underrated,” Mr Pinnick warned the Eagles after the humbling defeat suffered against

tournament debutants Madagascar. He continued: “It is just an eyeopener because we were preparing to play a weak team in the second round, but there’s no weak team in AFCON. “So, now let the big teams come and let’s be ready for them. “In the last AFCON we won, Mikel will tell you, we started slowly and were 10 minutes away from been eliminated in the first round then we scored twice against Ethiopia and went on to win the title. “Individually, let us rekindle our spirit. Let us not look at what they would say back home, let us look at what we can do on the field in our next game. “I had to drag the governor of Abia State to come here and another delegation coming in the next few days. “I have a lot to do, a lot to drag them to come and you guys must help the NFF. “There is no team that is not beatable or unbeaten but please let us redouble our

effort,” the NFF President pleaded. While appealing to the players to step up their game, Mr Pinnick who is also the first Vice President of CAF said the charge must not be seen as undue pressure. “We are not pushing the burden on you; it is the collective burden from all of us. “Please let us make that old man very proud, he has ensured that you get everything… Like I told you, we already have your bonuses until the final and we don’t want to take it back home “Let them call us whatever name, but we know that we will be berthing in Aso Rock with the trophy, that is the spirit I want from you all,” the NFF president said. Nigeria are three-time African champions following triumphs in 1980, 1994 and 2013. The Super Eagles will on Saturday face Cameroon in the Round of 16.

Serena Williams advances to second round

Serena Williams made a solid start to her campaign for an eighth Wimbledon singles title with a 6-2 7-5 victory over Giulia Gatto-Monticone. The 23-time Grand Slam champion had played in just five tournaments this year coming into Wimbledon, and showed signs of rust as she was broken attempting to serve out both sets.

However, she responded with an immediate break to take the first, and swiftly hit back in the second to seal victory in an hour and 20 minutes. Despite the defeat, the match was a triumph of sorts for the 31-yearold Gatto-Monticone, who was playing in the Wimbledon main draw for the first time in her career.

AFCON: Tanzania’ll keep coach Amuneke ‘to continue with the good work’ – FA chief The Tanzania Football Federation (TFF) technical director of Ammy Ninje has reassured Emmanuel Amuneke of his job with the Taifa Stars. The former Nigeria international was appointed as the coach of the side in August 2018 and helped the East Africans to qualify for their first Africa Cup of Nations in 39 years. However, the Taifa Stars had a torrid campaign in the 2019 Afcon finals, where they were eliminated in the group stage, losing to Senegal, Kenya and Algeria to finish at the bottom of Group C.

Despite the uninspiring performances, Ninje is certain the former Barcelona player will be allowed to continue in the rebuilding of the national team. “Coach Amunike has done a fantastic job. It was not easy because he transformed our football,” he said per FUTAA. “After 39 years, he came in and changed things and always, when you change things, you change people`s mentality. “It takes time. We will take care of him and keep him here to continue with the good work.” Ninje revealed the Taifa Stars

will be strengthened with younger players in their quest to have a better performance in the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations. “For some players who have been in the national team for a while, this may be their last outing,” he continued. “In modern football, you need youth, energy and tenacity. So, we will evaluate our squad and give a lot of young players the opportunity to shine for the future. “But time will tell what will be the fate of the old players. So, I hope if we qualify for the next Afcon tournament, we will do better.”

Afcon: Garba Lawal urges Nigeria to Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane reveals 30 players play as a team against Cameroon Ex-Nigeria International Garba Lawal believes Super Eagles are capable of beating any side at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations – including Cameroon – if they show the right attitude and play as a team. Lawal claims Nigeria’s loss to Madagascar was a one-off and on current form they have what it takes to beat the Indomitable Lions. He, however, opined that they must do so with determination and willingness to make sacrifices for one another on the pitch, from the beginning until the end of the game. “I don’t think it will be right for us to judge the Eagles based on their loss to Madagascar because situations like that happen in football and one cannot help it if it does,” Lawal told Goal. “I have the conviction that these Eagles can beat any team if they decide to play as a team and play with the right attitude. The attitude was poor against Madagascar and I also admit that we have not been playing too well in the current Afcon.

“Cameroon will provide the right test for us because they are rough and will be very tough to beat as the defending champions of the competition. The Eagles must play with the right composure and calmness and they must be ready to make sacrifices because Cameroon will not give up so easily.” Lawal who featured in four Afcon finals and won a gold medal with the Nigeria Under-23 team at the 1996 Olympic Games, said he was thrilled with the way they dealt with Cameroon at the quarter-final stage of the 2004 Afcon in Tunisia. It was the former Roda JC midfielder who initiated the pass from which Nwankwo Kanu fed John Utaka to score Nigeria’s winning goal against the Indomitable Lions on the day. “I will say one of my memorable moments as a player was our win over Cameroon at the 2004 Nations Cup because many tipped them to beat us but we went into the game with the right attitude and didn’t allow what others were saying affect

us,” he recalled. “I still remember what coach Christian Chukwu told me then that I should do a man-marking job on Geremi Njitap who they considered as their engine-room and he also told us other football tactics that we deployed and they worked well. We didn’t allow Cameroon to enjoy their game and even though they took the lead we knew we were capable of coming back. “Austin Okocha started it with his sublime free-kick which sailed into the net for the equaliser just before half time. The second goal was very magnificent. I can’t recall how I collected the pass but I know that Kanu received a good pass from me and he was able to put Utaka on the run and he finished up the job with the second goal. “We can achieve the same thing too on Saturday but our players must be ready to play as a team and they must show the right mental attitude too. Cameroon will be tough but we can beat them with enough seriousness.”

for the pre-season Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane has revealed the thirty players that will be taken to the pre-season tour in Canada. Los Blancos ended the season in an embarrassing manner and they are prepared to start their pre-season earlier enough so as to keep the players fit for the next season campaign. Zidane will put the players into real test before the season commences, who will be keen carefully select his players. According to COPE’s El Partidazo, Zidane knows the 26 first team players he’ll take, and Takefusa Kubo among them, and they’re as follows: Goalkeepers: Thibaut Courtois, Andriy Lunin, Keylor Navas and Luca Zidane. Defenders: Dani Carvajal, Alvaro Odriozola, Sergio Ramos, Raphael Varane, Nacho, Marcelo, Ferland Mendy. Midfielders: Toni Kroos, Brahim Diaz, Isco, Marco Asensio and Luka Modric.

Forwards: Karim Benzema, Eden Hazard, Rodrygo, Mariano Diaz, Lucas Vazquez, Vinicius Junior, Luka Jovic and Gareth Bale. Casemiro, Eder Militao, Dani Ceballos and Fede Valverde won’t travel having spent the summer in action. Melchor Ruiz has also reported that Pintus’ former responsibilities will now be in the hands of Javier Mallo.

In search of the real Oshiomhole

VOL. 3

NO. 982

N100

Times Guest Columnist By Azu Ishiekwene

As I watched the video again, it felt like a recording from another age, yet it was taped only five years ago. Comrade Adams Oshiomhole was wearing a smart deep-blue suit and red tie over a white shirt. He had shed his trademark brown khaki top and trousers. But looking at this video, not much else appears to have changed, outwardly. His interviewer on a Channels TV programme had asked him what he thought his legacy was as a two-term governor of Edo State. Oshiomhole took a deep breath. “It sounds like a simple question,” he said, “but it’s very complicated and difficult to answer.” That reply was not only a summary of his long-winded response; in retrospect, it was also the summary of his political odyssey: complicated and difficult. He answered the question, of course. Oshiomhole told the story of how his most important legacy in Edo is not necessarily infrastructure – the kilometres of roads constructed or the skyscrapers built. It’s about the change in the democratic space, the return of power to the people and the restoration of their capacity to decide for themselves those they want to lead them. In the past, Oshiomhole said, the godfathers castrated the people. But now, even citizens near political menopause were feeling a sudden flush of reversal. Time was when the godfathers not only determined if there was a vacancy, they also decided who would fill the vacancy. They had finally been dealt a big blow and even though they were still on life-support from Abuja, they had been practically vanquished. That was five years ago, when Oshiomhole was nearing the end of his second term. He wasn’t just sounding off. For years, Tony Anenih, a tin-god and one of the most influential members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), had the state in his deadly grip. Anenih’s influence was spooky and pervasive. His fear was the beginning of wisdom. The Oshiomhole who stepped forward against Anenih in 2007, daring the lion not just on the national stage but right in his Edo State den, was a miserable mismatch in size and reach. He didn’t have the money, the clout or the byzantine connection in high places that it takes to become a local government councilor in Nigeria, much less a state governor. But Oshiomhole – well, that Oshiomhole – had a heart and a record that made up for what he lacked in size. He was forged in the furnace of labour struggles

and was later widely perceived as a thorn in the side of capricious governments in many battles over workers’ rights and minimum wage. In his early political life, Oshiomhole the unionist retained his charm, his glow further brightened by a legend that in spite of the sacrifices and dangers he faced as a labour leader for decades, he refused to collect his entitlement in the end. His popularity grew and even though he did not berth with the Labour Party, the stardust from his trademark khaki still retained its potency. But it took more than one sling shot of popularity for Oshiomhole, well that Oshiomhole, to become governor of Edo. The tin-gods of Edo politics still defied the people and wrote the result of the election in 2007. The courts weighed in to right the wrong. Yet, the point had been made: the days of godfathers in Edo politics were over for good and the sanctity of suffrage would become a mantra in Edo nearly two centuries after British trade unionist, George Howell, canvassed “one man, one vote.” The Oshiomhole who ruled Edo for eight years espoused the same virtues that endeared him to many when he was labour leader. Wherever he went, he preached the triumph of democracy and the virtue of one-man-one-vote over godfatherism and patronage. He was a champion of justice and made it clear that his mission was to serve the people as best as he could, even if it meant stepping on toes to get the job done. Of course, he was not perfect. He was accused of impetuousness and opportunism, of pulling down the temple of Mammon only to install in its place a graven image of hypocrisy, greed and megalomania. These accusations were muted at first. Later, however, they became louder and louder after his appointment as chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), and then during the party’s controversial primaries. But has the party overdosed on Oshiomycin? Has the Oshiomhole we thought we knew – the national champion of workers’ rights, guardian of the underdog and vanquisher of godfather politics in Edo – become a victim of his own success or was he a charlatan, faking it all along? In yet another cyclical episode of successor-predecessor conflict, Obaseki and Oshiomhole have fallen out and Idahosa’s point was that Oshiomhole was becoming exactly what he spent his entire political life fighting against – the new godfather of Edo

politics. Idahosa’s allegations of primitive cronyism and nepotism against Oshiomhole in contemporary Edo politics made Rochas Okorocha’s Imo look like a counterfeit. All of which is painfully amusing. Idahosa might feel comfortable with the g-word but I’m not sure that his current paymaster, Obaseki, would be able to say the word, ‘godfather’, publicly. When Oshiomhole imposed Obaseki on the party after muscling out his former deputy, Pius Odubu, and any other remote opposition from a fair and transparent contest for the party’s governorship flag, that was godfather tactics – straight out of Anenih’s playbook. But Obaseki neither recognised it nor permitted himself to think about it at the time because he was the beneficiary. Now, the gods from whose shrine he took a roasted yam are asking for atonement in blood instead of palm oil. Just what godfathers do. If it were left to Oshiomhole and Obaseki alone, I would rather post a blank page this week than write one word. When push comes to shove, they will make up – like all politicians do – in the closet where they first met and bury the hatchet in the back of the press. But there’s something deeper; something much deeper than the tantrums of angry politicians here: it’s the identity, or more accurately, the essence of Oshiomhole the man we once thought we knew as slayer of the godfather. That essence now appears diminished, completely at odds with the effigy of a hypocritical, power-drunk, selfobsessed buffoon trolling the media space. But where’s the real Oshiomhole? Where’s the Oshiomhole who fought godfathers at every turn and insisted on the right of the people to make their choices? Where’s the Oshiomhole who railed against patronage and canvassed meritocracy? Where’s the Oshiomhole who disdained cronyism and extolled competence? Where’s the Oshiomhole who criticised pomp and extravagance and capped his love of frugality by wearing simple khaki top and trousers? The Oshiomhole interviewed on Channels TV five years ago, was already in transformation, barely recognisable, except for his constant message of justice and fair play. And now, even that message appears lost in translation. It’s increasingly difficult to recognise Oshiomhole as the same Oshiomhole. What happened, Comrade?

Afcon: CAF shuns Nigerian players for Group Stage Best XI No player from the Nigerian national team made it into the crack squad labelled Best XI released by the Confederation of African Football (CAF) on Wednesday. The players according to CAF were selected based on their performance in the group stage of the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON). Tournament host Egypt have the highest representation in the Best XI from the group stage as they have four of their players in the squad. The Pharaoh’s goalkeeper, Mohamed al-Shenawy, as well as defenders, Ahmed Hegazi and Ahmed

Elmohamady, and forward Mohamed Salah are all in the mix. Sadio Mane (Senegal), Jordan Ayew (Ghana) and Riyad Mahrez (Algeria) are some of the big names also selected. Ashraf Hakimi (Morocco), Yaya Banana (Cameroon), Ismail Bennacer (Algeria) and Andriamirado Andrianarimanana (Madagascar) complete the Best XI list. Eight other players across six countries were also selected as substitutes. Twenty-four countries with 552 registered players are taking part in the 32nd edition of the Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt.

Yaya Toure: I’ll help Qingdao Huanghai earn promotion to Chinese Super League Former Barcelona and Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure sealed a two-year deal with Chinese second tier league club Qingdao Huanghai on Wednesday and declared that the move was inspired by his desire to help a club that plays beautiful football get promotion to the premier league. Toure, 36, left Olympiacos in December 2018, but insisted he was not yet done with playing football professionally. The former Cote d’Ivoire captain and fourtime African footballer of the Year is now raring to go in China. “Since the start of my football career, I have always loved challenges and now I have decided to take this new challenge and make history once again with Qingdao Huanghai Football Club,” Toure was quoted in a

statement. “This is a very exciting young club with a lot of potential and we share the same philosophy that is to play beautiful football. It will be my great honour to grow and succeed with this club.
