...Stop campaign of calumny against Gbajabiamila, Jibrin warns
Continued from page 1
against the person of the Lagos born legislator. Reacting to a press conference addressed by the Coalition of United Political Parties (CUPP), he emphatically said that Rep. Gbajabiamila has never been convicted for any crime in the United States of America, Nigeria or any other country in the world as is being peddled by detractors. “He has never been accused of corruption and has no corruption case hanging on his neck in Nigeria or anywhere around the world. He has not committed perjury and has never committed perjury in Nigeria or any country of the world. He was eligible to contest in all previous elections he won and indeed, eligible and qualified to contest for the office of speaker of the House of Representatives in the 9th Assembly. “Femi has severally and comprehensively responded to these allegations, provided clarifications and set records straight. The allegations have also been tested and struck out in our court of law. The state bar of Georgia has also written and categorically stated that there is no criminal conviction in the matter relating to Femi and he is currently, an active member in good standing of the state bar of Georgia. All these facts are in the public domain. “We further wish to state that Femi has not been served any summons by a magistrate court neither has he been notified by the clerk. We are worried
that those behind these antics are trying to drag the judiciary and our revered judges to what is clearly a hatchet job. The judiciary must not allow itself to be mixed in such cocktail of dirt,” said Jibrin while addressing the press in Abuja on Wednesday. He, however, declared that the campaign of calumny orchestrated to poison the minds of leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) against Rep. Gbajabiamila has failed woefully. Rep. Jibrin described as disturbing the fact that the person who addressed the press conference went beyond Gbajabiamila and attacked Mr. President, parties, governors and other leaders through spreading of outright falsehood and hate speech capable of causing tension and security problems across the land. Threatening to sue CUPP, he said the campaign organisation has petitioned the inspector general of police and other security agencies to get to the bottom of the matter and take all necessary action against him and his sponsors. “Femi in his usual manner has maintained a dignified silence knowing truth to be a constant. However, he has now instructed his lawyers to take every necessary legal steps against all those involved with their three parliamentary conspirators and sponsors to seek redress and sue for defamation with immediate effect,” he disclosed. Promising that Gbajabiamila’s campaign body will not be distracted,
Jibrin added that “we remain focused and undeterred and prepared for whatever antics they may further unfold. Whatever they choose to do and however, Gbajabiamila and Ahmed Idris Wase will be on the floor on June 11 live and direct to be elected speaker and deputy speaker respectively, to take over from Speaker Yakubu Dogara, who ceases to be speaker from June 6 after our valedictory session.” Speaking on Gbajabiamila’s personality, he said: “Femi has had a successful private legal practice career both in Nigeria and abroad. He has had a distinguished career in the parliament being a five- term member and rising all the way in the legislature to minority leader and subsequently, majority leader. A feat only he holds in the history of Nigeria parliament. He is a loyal Nigeria and party man.” Meanwhile, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Caucus in the House of Representatives has denied endorsing neither Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila or any of the other aspirants contesting the House Speakership position. In a statement issued in Abuja on Wednesday, PDP Minority Leader, Leo Ogor, emphasised that while the caucus has directed its members to participate in meetings and strategy sessions of the APC Speakership aspirants, they never directed them to consider voting for any of the aspirants. According to the Minority
Three litigants whose pre election suit challenging President Muhammadu Buhari eligibility to contest February presidential election was dismissed by the Federal High Court have approached the Court of Appeal praying it to reverse the decision, disqualify and void Buhari’s election. The appellants: Kalu Kalu, Labaran Ismail and Hassy Kyari El-Kuris, said in the appeal marked No CA/A/436/2019 challenging the decision of Federal High Court delivered on May 2, on suit No FHC/ABJ/ CS/1310/2018, that the judge erred by dismissing
their suit on the ground that it was statute barred. The appellants as plaintiffs had on November 5, 2018 filed an originating summons seeking declaration of the court that Muhammad Buhari (1st respondent) to the suit submitted false information regarding his education qualification/ certificate to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for the purpose of contesting the 2019 general election. They further prayed that the President having submitted false information regarding his certificate/ educational is disqualified from contesting into the office president among other

Operation Puff Adder: Police nab 2, 175 kidnap, robbery suspects Andrew Orolua, Abuja The police through its ‘Operation Puff Adder’ said on Wednesday that it have arrested 2,175 suspected kidnappers, armed robbers, murderers and cultists between April 5 and June 5. Also, the operation has resulted in the police rescuing 63 kidnapped victims unhurt and the recovery of 834 arms, 19,009 live ammunition and two rocket launchers among others. Force Public Relations Officer, DCP Frank Mba, who disclosed this in a statement titled: “Operation Puff Adder; the journey so far,” gave the breakdown of the arrests as follows; 852 armed robbers, 865 murderers, 359 cultists and 99 others. On the arms recovered, he said 834 arms, including two rocket launchers, 19,009 live
ammunition with Oyo State recording the highest number of 9,500 live ammunition. Meanwhile, the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, has said that the police are re-jigging their strategies to ensure proactive interception of illicit weapons destined to our country and at the same time mop up un-authorised weapons in circulation. Therefore, he has called for tougher legislations against kidnapping and banditry, including possible state seizure of assets linked to illicit proceeds from kidnapping and other heinous crimes. This, the inspector general believes, will act as a strong disincentive to potential kidnappers and other violent criminals. Adamu made the call on Wednesday while addressing a

Intervene in APC crisis, Nabena pleads with President Wants Buhari to settle Oshiomhole, Oyegun rift Begs aggrieved members not to leave party
As the rift between the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Adams Oshiomhole and his deputy, Lawal Shuaibu, continues to fester, a member of the APC National Working Committee, Yekini Nabena, has pleaded with President Muhammadu Buhari to timely intervene in the face-off between the duo. Nabena, the APC Deputy National Publicity Secretary, is seeking the intervention and mediation of President Buhari as the misunderstanding between the two national officers has dovetailed into the current faceoff between Oshiomhole and his predecessor, Chief John OdigieOyegun. He said the war of words
between Oshiomhole and Oyegun which has sparked the cold war between them since the incumbent chairman took over from Oyegun is uncalled for at this period of the party’s growth and development. Nabena, who spoke in Abuja on Wednesday, said the crisis if not quickly resolved is capable of weakening the strength of the party and distracting the administration of the APC-led Federal Government, hence the need for the Presidency to take pre-emptive steps in dousing the crisis. He expressed worry about unsettled rancour in some state chapters of the party as a result of crisis that rocked its primaries ahead of the 2019 general election in which the APC lost some
ground to the opposition PDP. His words: “The losses the APC suffered during the 2019 general election in some states which we previously controlled is indeed worrisome. However, we are still the governing party which produced the President; control majority states and have an overwhelming majority in the National Assembly. “Compared to the failed Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the APC remains the political party of choice for both Nigerians and politicians. I urge our aggrieved members to remain in the APC fold and settle their differences. In fact, in a few months, we expect a huge influx from members of the rudderless PDP and other political parties into the APC.
“Elections have been won and lost. High-level meetings such as national caucus and the national executive committee are there to address party matters. I call on our respected leaders, particularly the current and immediate-past national chairmen to end their public hostilities, particularly in the media for the sake of the party and focus on the important task of forming government at the state and federal levels to deliver on our Next Level mandate. “We need a united house to ensure the growth and strength of our party. In the immediate, I call on President Muhammadu Buhari as the leader of our party to lead fence-mending efforts and address obvious grievances in many states and among stakeholders in the party.”
Road accidents claim 1,618 lives in 3 months – FRSC Names Kaduna-Abuja road most prevalent route in cases of accident fatality
Ukpono Ukpong, Abuja No fewer than 1,618 people have lost their lives due to accidents on Nigerian roads between December 2018 and February 2019. This was contained in the Report of Road Traffic Crash for December, 2018, January and February, 2019 as released by the Federal Road Safety
Corps (FRSC). The report noted that over 21,577 people were involved in road crashes involving cars, minibuses, motorcycles, trucks, tankers and trailers. While noting speed violation, wrongful overtaking, dangerous driving, tyre burst and brake failure as the top five causes of road accidents, the FRSC report identified Kaduna-Abuja road as the
most prevalent route in cases of accident fatality within the period under review. Similarly, the Lagos-Ibadan, Abuja-Lokoja and KadunaZaria were also identified as routes with high record of road crashes. The report called for the intensification of patrol and rescue operations along routes with high crash records to further reduce casualties.
“There is need to conduct workshop on vehicles safety education as well as safe usage due to high involvement of cars, minibuses and motocycles in crashes. “As a matter of fact, the Corps needs to step up enforcement on over-speeding or initiate a high powered technology to detect and stem the tide of overspeeding as part of operational activities,’’ the report added.
Maifata, who paid him the traditional Sallah in Abuja. He noted that the call has become necessary against the increasingly daring resort to these forms of crimes by criminal elements in the society and seized the opportunity of the visit to appraise the visitors on the successes recorded by ‘Operation Puff Adder’ in the ongoing fight against criminal elements across the country. Adamu stated that since the launch of ‘Operation Puff Adder’ on April 5 till date, 63 kidnapped victims were rescued unhurt by police operatives. According to him, while a good number of the cases are already being prosecuted in courts across the country, many of the cases are still under active investigation owing largely to the complexity of investigating and managing organised crimes. While commending his men for a good job, the IGP stated that the mind-boggling size of the arrests and arms recovered so far is a testament to the efficacy of ‘Operation Puff Adder’ and more importantly, to the unalloyed and unwavering support of the public to the police and other security agencies. In a related development, troops of the 143 Battalion on Tuesday in an ambush dealt a heavy blow on a large number of terrorists who were withdrawing along Kubu Village. The victory came following credible information of a planned terrorist attack on the 114 Task Force Battalion, E Company locations at Izge Village in Gwoza Local Government Area of Borno State. According to the acting Director of Army Public Relations, Col. Sagir Musa, “troops of 143 Battalion laid an ambush on the terrorists’ withdrawal route along Kubu Village. “Consequently, the terrorists entered the ambush which resulted in the death of unconfirmed number of the criminals. The troops also recovered four AK 47 rifles, one 81 millimetre mortar, assorted ammunitions, two Hilux vehicles and one pumping machine.” There was no casualty on the part of the army. Meanwhile, the army has commended those who availed the troops the information that led to the success of the operation and further enjoined members of the public to be more forthcoming to security agencies with useful information about the terrorists and other criminals.

PDP flays Buhari for tagging FCT residents ‘necessary evil’ Demands apology to Nigerians for such inciting comment
Tunde Opalana, Abuja The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has reproached President Muhammadu Buhari for branding residents of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja as “necessary evil” because they did not vote for him in the February 23 presidential election. The party noted that such resort to branding of Nigerians for rightly exercising their rights is completely unpresidential and must be condemned by all. The PDP lamented that the statement of Mr. President was “inciting, divisive and capable of demonizing innocent compatriots and setting them up for victimisation by overzealous agencies” The party, therefore, called on President Buhari to
apologise to Nigerians for this divisive comment In a statement on Wednesday by its spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan, the party cautioned President Buhari to note that he was not only rejected by FCT residents but also by an overwhelming majority of Nigerians across the states of the federation, who voted massively for the PDP. The PDP alleged that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) went ahead to subvert the will of the people in Buhari’s favour, consequent upon which the party and presidential candidate have headed for the retrieval of this stolen mandate at the tribunal. Furthermore, the party criticized President Buhari for stating that “to make FCT secure is to make myself secure and the Vice
Secondus
President”. It held that it is the duty of the President to provide security for all parts of the country, irrespective of where he and the Vice President reside or how Nigerians cast their votes. The PDP maintained that the security of lives of all Nigerians ought to have been paramount to the President
and not determined by inessential factors, if indeed he has the interest of the people at heart. The party also urged Nigerians to continue in their determination to retrieve the stolen Presidential mandate at the tribunal, so as to have an administration that truly cares for the citizens, in line with the provisions of the laws.
CAS to NAF officers: Don’t be distracted by terrorists’ propaganda Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Sadiq Abubakar, has tasked Air force officers and men not to be distracted by the propaganda by terrorists and bandits in discharging their duties of protecting the nation. Abubakar stated this on Wednesday in Katsina during a special Sallah reception organized for officers and men participating in operation Sharan-Daji, charged with the task of flushing out bandits in Rugu forest in the state. “The Air force staff handling the operations of
flushing out terrorists and bandits should conduct the activities according to the constitutional provision. “The terrorists and their sponsors have been using the media to castigate the operations of the Air force with the aim of casting doubts in the minds of the public. “The mischief makers have been using the social media with the aim of getting the support of innocent Nigerians to continue the killings in some parts of the country, ” he said. The air chief, who was represented by the Air
Component Commander, Group Capt. Aliyu Hussaini Idris, called on the entire military personnel involved in checkmating the terrorists not to compromise in performing their constitutional role of defending the territorial integrity of the nation. Abubakar said that the Federal Government has provided all the necessary logistics for them to do their job well. “The air force on its parts will also continue to give the welfare of its officers and men top priority in order to give them sense of belonging.
“This sallah reception is organised to celebrate with Muslim officers and men that have fasted for 30 days during the month of Ramadan. “We want them to relax and enjoy the Muslim festive mood and make them feel at home since they cannot join their families as they are involved in this operations of defending the nation.” NAN reports that the CAS has introduced special celebrations during festivities with personnel who were involved in operations of defending the nation.
Oando saga: Operators seek FG intervention, laud SEC’s audit outcome Capital market operators on Wednesday called for urgent intervention of the Federal Government in the conflict between the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Oando Plc. They made the call in interviews with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos They reacted to the outcome of a forensic audit on Oando released by SEC on May 31, as well as a court injunction restraining SEC from sacking Oando’s Group Chief Executive Officer (GCEO), Mr Adewale Tinubu, and his deputy. The operators applauded the courage of SEC’s Acting DirectorGeneral, Ms Mary Uduk, in releasing the outcome of the
forensic audit. Recall that following the outcome of the forensic audit, SEC on June 2 constituted an interim management team to be headed by Mr Mutiu Sunmonu for Oando Plc. It said in a statement that Sunmonu would oversee the affairs the company and conduct an Extra Ordinary General Meeting (EGM) on or before July 1, to appoint new board of directors. The commission said that the new board of directors would subsequently select a management team for Oando Plc. The commission reiterated its commitment to maintaining the integrity of the market. However, a Federal High
Court in Lagos on June 3, granted an interim injunction restraining SEC from executing the interim management in Oando. The court injunction followed an application filed by Tinubu and his deputy, Mr Omamofe Boyo. Tinubu and Boyo applied for the enforcement of their fundamental rights. The court also restrained SEC from imposing a fine of N91.13 million on Tinubu, and barring him and Boyo from being directors of public companies for five years. Mr Ambrose Omordion, the Chief Operating Officer, InvestData Ltd., said that the Federal Government would need to intervene in the matter to
safeguard investors’ confidence. Omordion said that the unfolding events between Oando and SEC could dampen investors confidence and tamper with Nigeria’s integrity. He said that the international investment community was watching to see the manner the Oando issue would be handled. “The way SEC and government will handle this issue will go a long way to determine the success of the nation’s drive for financial inclusion and attraction of new retail investors and foreign investors returning to the market,” Omordion state. He also urged the government to strengthen the commission by ensuring appointment of its board members soon.
...Stop campaign of calumny against Gbajabiamila, Jibrin warns Continued from page 3 Leader, even though some confused elements in the ruling party are claiming to be ‘talking to one part of the PDP House caucus before talking to the other’, the PDP House caucus remains resolutely united, with decisive plans for strengthening democratic growth while patriotically exerting influence on the Speakership election process. He stated that the PDP’s national leadership and members of the PDP caucus will consider the national interest and take a collective decision on whom to vote for on June 11 when the House is scheduled to be inaugurated. “In the Eid el Fitri message issued on Tuesday, we felicitated with all our Muslim brothers and sisters across Nigeria, we emphasised the significance of worthy virtues and also stated that our members may participate in meetings, strategy sessions and other activities of Speakership aspirants so as to come back to the caucus with convincing assessments. “While some publications have disseminated accurate and objective report, few others fabricated a completely new angle with one even using a deliberately fictitious and grossly erroneous headline in a manner that suggests being used for the ruling party’s usual misinformation and propaganda. “Contrary to what has been sensationally reported by some, at no time did we give our members a directive to vote for any APC speakership aspirant; I hereby categorically dissociate myself and
the PDP House Caucus from the false comments being attributed to us as participation in meetings should not be deliberately misinterpreted as a directive on voting,” Ogor stated. According to Ogor, the PDP House Caucus has remained solidly united, even as it continues to grant audience to various Speakership aspirants. “Of the three arms of government, the legislature is the first when it comes to the ethos and praxis of democracy; hence, our willingness to further facilitate democratic values and legislative camaraderie - values that are lacking in the ruling party - up till that day when our great party, the PDP, will take a decision. “Indeed, on May 22 and again, on June 4, all the House Speakership aspirants of note came one after another, to meet and discuss their plans with the leadership of the PDP House Caucus. “While we have taken the decision to enable all individual members to interact and exchange perspectives, the PDP House Caucus shall - with the input and advice of our party’s national leadership – take a final decision soon, in the interest of Nigeria and we will communicate our formal position to the public. “Our unflinching commitment to the principles and ethos of democracy, our keenness for dialogue and our willingness to make sacrifice for the national interest should not be unduly exaggerated as a tacit endorsement or assurance of vote for any candidate of the ruling party,” he stated.
2019 poll: Kalu, 2 others ask A’Court to disqualify, void Buhari’s election Continued from page 3 second respondent held its primary election wherein Buhari was elected as a candidate of the APC. The appellants are contending that the trial judge erred when he held that the objection to the representation by the attorney general of federation and the processes was belated in that there was no objection to the appearance of the law officers and the appellants having reacted to the processes filed. The appellants claimed that there was frontal challenge by them to the processes filed on behalf of Buhari which the court was bound to rule upon, but swept it under the carpet. They maintained that
a lawyer in the office of the attorney general of the federation cannot appear or file processes for Buhari in a suit of this nature. They also urged the Court of Appeal to reverse the lower court’s decision on the ground that it erred in computing when the cause of action arose. According to the appellants, the cause of action cannot accrue earlier than the date of publication of the document by INEC who is the third respondents. Therefore, they urged the appellate court to reverse the decision of the trial court and assume original jurisdiction on the matter and strike out all the processes filed by Buhari through a lawyer in the attorney-general of the federation office.

Don advises Buhari to complete Ajaokuta steel
Former President, Nigerian Metallurgical Society, Prof. Benjamin Adewuyi, has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to ensure the completion of the Ajaokuta Steel Company during his second tenure. Prof. Adewuyi, who gave the advice on Wednesday in Abuja, said Buhari should ensure that the moribund steel company becomes operational in his second tenure to boost the nation’s economy. According to him, the project when completed would lead to the local production of arms and ammunitions, cars among others that were now being imported. “Ajaokuta has the capacity to produce cars, arms for the military among others and can also provide massive employment for the youth. We are
only deceiving ourselves that we are manufacturing cars locally, without Ajaokuta steel functioning, we cannot manufacture our own cars. ” We have many brilliant youth among us that cannot carry out any innovation because we lack the materials they require, Mr. President should revisit Ajaokuta Steel Company and kick start the project,” he said. He warned that Nigeria would continue to suffer the repercussions of neglecting Ajaokuta Steel, as the country continues to depend on imported steel made from scrap metals. “Nigeria will continue to suffer building collapse because most of the steel imported are made from scrap metals which cannot give the quality of steel required,” he added and called
for the development of metallurgical entrepreneurship to cater for welders, blacksmiths and other micro scale metal refiners and micro credit facilities for the steel sector. ” We want the government to pay more attention to micro, small and medium scale enterprises especially in the area of equipment procurement. We also want maximum utilisation of professionals in all areas of the metallurgical sector; more emphasis on the development of science and technology in economic development and growth. “The sector will also require government to create metallurgical entrepreneurship centres in all the geopolitical zones to fast track innovations and youth development and employment among others,” Prof. Adewuyi stated.
Short News NOWA empowers wives of fallen Naval officers in Lagos Succour has come to wives of some late men and officers of the Nigerian Navy, as the Naval Officers’ Wives Association (NOWA) on Wednesday presented some gift items to the widows. National President of NOWA, Mrs. Theresa Ibas, made the donation to the benefiting widows at the NOWA Acquisition Centre in Navy Town, Ojo, Lagos. She said the gesture was aimed at improving the widows’ living standard, along with that of their children, adding that “women are the bedrock of the family and the society at large, and the task of sustaining the home becomes even more difficult when the husband is no more. “It is in recognition of the tough situations widows go through in their task as managers of the home front that NOWA empowers them to alleviate hardships. We are gathered here today to witness the empowerment of some of our NOWA widows as a follow up to the skills acquisition training and empowerment they earlier received.” Mrs. Ibas noted that the empowerment programme was therefore, intended to help alleviate the sufferings of widows of naval personnel who die in active service. “I enjoin you all to accept the spirit behind this gesture and make judicious use of the items donated today to attain a more comfortable and self-reliant live. To our sisters and beneficiaries of today’s empowerment, I need you to know that we empathise with you.
Fire destroys relief materials meant for IDPs in Maiduguri

NULGE, others commend FG over smooth take off of LG autonomy Ukpono Ukpong, Abuja Following the strict adherence to the guidelines of the Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit (NFIU) in the country, the Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees (NULGE) and the Senior Staff Association of Statutory Corporations and Government Owned Companies (SSASCGOC) have commended the federal government for the will to ensure the swift implementation of the policy, particularly on joint state-local governments account and local government funds. Addressing journalists yesterday in Abuja, NULGE President, Comrade Ibrahim Khaleel, also commended financial institutions for cooperating to ensure the smooth take-off of the initiative, despite the stiff opposition from the governors who were only bent on their selfish desires to mismanage funds meant for local governments. While commending the NFIU for the take-off of the new policy, Comrade Khaleel, noted that the initiative will halt looting of council funds, thereby, granting financial autonomy to local governments which will in turn mark the beginning of a new era for local governments as massive development strides
would be felt by the people at the grassroots. “The federal government, especially President Muhammadu Buhari should be commended for standing on the side of the people, rule of laws and the development of the country by insisting on the NFIU guidelines. Also, the financial institutions must be commended for strict adherence to the rules, while we praise the unit itself for leading the way in doing a very good job. “Effective regulation of arbitrary withdrawals of local government funds by state governments from the joint local government/state joint accounts by the Nigeria Financial Intelligence Unit (NFIU) as we have seen with the take-off now would reduce looting of council finances. “To encourage the federal government, President Buhari, the banks and other financial institutions and the NFIU itself, the union will train its members across the length and breadth of the country to keep eagle eyes on the operations of the funds going to local government councils henceforth. I am assuring you, we will ensure that flagrant abuse of the system and the funds is stopped,” Khaleel said. Similarly, the SSASCGOC General Secretary, Comrade Ayo Olorunfemi, applauded the federal government, President Buhari and the unit for taking the step, noting
that the state governors have over the years frustrated development at the grassroots by refusing to allow financial autonomy for local government councils. Olorunfemi commended President Buhari, for sanctioning the guidelines which has renewed the faith of Nigerians and the labour movement in the anti-corruption fight of the present government. Our correspondent recalls that the NFIU had on May 6 issued the guidelines to reduce the vulnerability created by cash withdrawals from local government funds throughout the country and restoring the full mandate of the operations of state/local government joint accounts to be used solely for the distribution of funds directly to the accounts of local governments. Banks were requested to ensure the full implementation of the guidelines with effect from June 1, following the state governors’ failure to secure a court order stopping its implementation. The Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit (NFIU) is the Nigerian arm of the global financial intelligence units domiciled within the EFCC as an autonomous unit. The NFIU seeks to comply with international standards on combating money laundering and the financing of terrorism, and proliferation of small arms.
The United Nations Secretary General, António Guterres has said that an estimated nine out of 10 people worldwide are exposed to air pollutants that exceed World Health Organization (WHO) air quality guidelines. According to Guterres, people are breathing dirty air all around the world from megacities to small villages. In a statement made available to newsmen to mark the 2019 World Environment Day on Wednesday, the UN secretary general said that the development is reducing life expectancy and damaging economies across the planet. “Today, we face an equally urgent crisis. It is time to act decisively, my message to governments is clear; tax pollution, end fossil fuel subsidies and stop building new coal plants. We need a green economy not a grey economy. “On World Environment Day, I ask each of us to act so we can breathe more easily, from pressuring politicians and businesses to changing our own habits; we can reduce pollution and beat climate change,’’ he said. Guterres noted that to improve air quality, countries must know her enemy, with deaths and illnesses from air pollution causing tiny particles that penetrate defences every time by filling the lungs. According to him, these particles come from many sources, the burning of fossil fuels for power and transport, the chemicals and mining industries, the open burning of waste and the burning of forests and fields.
1.9m women lack quality maternal health care in Africa - UNICEF Doosuur Iwambe, Abuja The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) has raised concerns over the risk millions of mothers face due to the prohibitive health care costs, lack of access to services and skilled professionals and child marriage, especially in Africa. UNICEF in a new analysis released on maternal health said that approximately 1.9 million households in Africa spend over 40 per cent of their non-food household expenses on maternal health services every year. While noting that the costs of ante-natal care and delivery services can deter pregnant women from seeking medical attention, endangering the lives of mothers and their babies, the report said that although much progress has been made around the world in improving women’s access to maternal services, every day over 800 still die from pregnancy-related complications. UNICEF Executive Director, Henrietta Fore noted that when it comes to women giving birth at a facility, the gap between the poorest and the richest is more than double in West and Central Africa. “For far too many families, the sheer costs of childbirth can be catastrophic. If a family cannot afford these costs, the consequences can even be fatal. When families cut corners to reduce maternal health care costs, both mothers and their babies suffer. At least 7, 000 stillbirths also occur every day, half of these babies who were alive when labor began, and 7, 000 babies die in the first month of life. “Doctors, nurses and midwives play a critical role in saving mothers, yet millions of births occur every year without a skilled attendant.

Aisha Buhari, the president’s appointments and new reality for the north
Umar Sa’ad Hassan
President Obasanjo’s remarks about an on-going ‘islamization and fulanization’ process at a Church of Nigeria event in Delta State and a deed in that direction on the part of the Buhari administration by announcing a new radio station for the Fulani formed the major item of public discourse recently. You may also count a few goofy statements on this and that but everyone already knows what to expect when it comes to Lai Mohammed. Just when it appeared the Supreme Court verdict on the Zamfara elections was going to transit us over the weekend to a potential wait for the next major news cycle, the first lady of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Hajiya Aisha Buhari shocked us on Saturday with her revelations at an interactive forum held at the Presidential Villa. The first lady quite sensationally disclosed how northern states were being sidelined in the Social Investment schemes of government particularly mentioning her home state Adamawa and Kano where the President’s Senior Special adviser on Social Investment Programmes, Maryam Uwais hails from with an addendum that she ‘was sure’ Uwais was appointed by Buhari in that capacity because of the huge votes he got from the state in 2015. Aisha Buhari’s outburst tells us 2 things and I will start from the less critical. The first lady may just be preparing herself for life outside the Presidency. Not a few think her worthy of high commendation for the manner in which has spoken out against her
husband’s government and just maybe, Aisha Buhari is starting to feel a need to exploit that to sell herself as best as possible. Her special ‘concern’ for Adamawa state and her ‘village people’ in particular regarding ‘her share’ of the mosquito nets the Buhari administration planned to distribute more than anything suggests she may be positioning herself to run for political office. If so, under the APC or PDP, time will tell. More importantly however, the chickens have come home to roost for the core Buhari support base in the north who never see any wrong in anything he does. When a lot of us were criticizing the President early on for his lopsided appointments in favour of the north, our brothers said we had collected money from the PDP. Why would anyone from the north complain about northerners been overly favoured in appointments? What we saw then, only few did. If Buhari’s successor bends over backwards to favour the Southern states not only for voting massively for him but also because they were sidelined by the previous administration, these very same people will be heard complaining and maybe even kick-start an agitation for an Arewa state. In the interest of nation building, whenever we called for appointments to be based on competence and not along voting lines, we were shouted down and expected to understand the beneficiaries were ‘our brothers’. Instead of a skilled and accomplished
hand in people-oriented schemes, Maryam Uwais, a lawyer was handed the portfolio of Adviser on Social Investment Programmes. Buhari’s never-see-wrong supporters are now feeling the brunt of the incompetence of our northern kin. A person of more honour and courage would have spoken out loud for her people when Vice-President, Prof. Yomi Osinbajo was moving from market to market across the country handing N10,000 to prospective voters in the name of the tradermoni scheme. They never bothered about the north and Uwais, the APC vote appointee wasn’t heard complaining.N500bn worth of schemes is what we are talking about. Buhari already had most of the north in the bag and they knew perfectly well that no much campaign was needed for a people who had been configured to see him as a messiah no matter what. If things weren’t going well, it was because of Goodluck Jonathan or even Bola Tinubu. Only those in other places whose eyes were open to the truth were to be swayed with N10,000. I may not be privy to the type of information the first lady receives from the Secretary of the government of the Federation (whom she reminded us was from Adamawa as well) and others around her but i can confidently say that i agree with her. Tradermoni and other social investment programmes are not as operative in the north as they are in other places. At least judging from what our eyes see. For a President that had promised to
make government impact felt based on how a people voted and had even gone ahead to bless them with as many appointments as possible, all one needed to do was to think out why that formula didn’t apply to social investment programmes and you’ll arrive at one conclusion-the 2019 election. The South West has always been the most open-minded electorate and had the largest population of ‘on the fence’ voters likely to be swayed by either side. Osinbajo was pictured doling out money and even eating with school kids in the South West than in any other place. No one needs to convince an already convinced people. The President’s supporters that try very hard to justify every of his misdeeds need to learn from the revelations of Aisha Buhari. The very obvious question here is what really has government done with N500bn? How many unemployed persons have gotten the promised N5000 monthly stipend? How many meals have children in the public schools we see around us had? If that sum were entirely devoted to tradermoni, wouldn’t every market woman in this country have received a share? The figures we are given are very different from what our eyes see. One way or the other in the end, we all as a people will suffer for the sentimental assessment of our leaders, the ineptitude of undeserving appointees and the enthronement of mediocrity. Some way some how, it will haunt us all.
Buhari’s second term: Doing right by Nigerians
Dele Agekameh
Exactly one week ago, President Muhammadu Buhari was sworn into office for his second term as a democratically elected leader of Nigeria. The expected inaugural address was limited to a brief expression of gratitude by the president. People close to the Presidency later revealed that the president has suspended his address until June 12, which his administration has proclaimed as the new democracy day in the country. Ahead of that expected big speech, there are a few areas of interest that Nigerians are particularly interested in, areas where the people need to hear the president give positive and clear plans of action. In its first term, President Buhari’s administration launched a series of social investment programmes to alleviate the crippling effects of poverty and growing unemployment in the country. These include the N-Power programme for the unemployed youth; the Home-Grown School Feeding programme; the Government Enterprise and Empowerment Programme (GEEP), under which the popular TraderMoni falls; and the Conditional Cash Transfer scheme. These are similar to social programmes in the developed world where good record keeping and technological infrastructure allow for the adequate monitoring and profiling of beneficiaries, disbursements and impact. Although the Buhari administration is quick to put forward the establishment of these schemes as part of its achievements, there is little or no acknowledgment of their shortfalls. In the final weeks and months of the first term, questions were raised about the usage of the N500 billion fund earmarked by the government to bankroll the social investment programmes. Other questions arose about the integrity of the beneficiaries and the monitoring of the disbursements. Although there is undoubted evidence of some impact on the target demographics in Nigeria, there is a general sense that more can be done. To achieve higher impacts, the government must acknowledge the faults in each of these programmes and come up with plans to improve and scale up their reach and impact. Frankness about these issues, rather
than a reiteration of the perceived success of the programmes, will go a long way to show an intention to improve on them during the second term. Unemployment and a high poverty rate are symptoms of a poor economy, irrespective of shiny statistics that record marginal growth on paper. For instance, the critics of the government are quick to point out that the price of petrol has doubled since the Buhari administration took power four years ago, despite still paying trillions of naira in susbsidy, just like the previous administration did. Although external factors like the global drop in the price of crude around the time of the inception of the administration may have contributed to this, the gains in that area since the $28 per barrel low in January 2016, has not reflected in the pump price in Nigeria, which the average Nigerian is primarily affected by and concerned with. The Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) oil prices currently average about $70 per barrel. A weaker naira and unrealistic oil price benchmark for budgeting purposes are also areas of criticism for the Buhari administration. Beyond the shaky investor confidence and growing poverty line, the most telling consequence of the general state of the country is the steady rise in insecurity over the past four years of the Buhari administration, which many now think is at its most critical point in decades. The expectations of the toughness of the president’s leadership style has not been met in the area of insecurity, and the early gains, especially in the North-East, have been squandered and overshadowed by the harrowing tales of victims across the country. Presently, in the North-East, Abubakar Shekau’s Boko Haram sect and the Islamic State in the West African Province (ISWAP), both of which follow the Islamic State (IS)’s ideology (despite IS’ disavowal of the former), are complemented by Ansaru, a terrorist organisation loyal to AlQaeda, in tearing through the North-Eastern part of the country. And this is inspite of the fact that Al-Qaeda and IS have been seriously decimated in their respective places of origin. The situation presents a disturbing picture of the terror threat
in Nigeria and how vulnerable the country is to these threats. Then there is the banditry in the North-West that is a direct result of the tolerance and poor management of a seemingly ‘local’ problem that has now gripped the entire region. This is already spreading nationwide through the corridors of an underground market in gold mining that has somehow eluded the government for decades. The terrorist organisations are suspected to have joined the ‘banditry’ and the implications are terrifying for the entire country. Killings and kidnappings occur nationwide. The trend has been for the government to underplay security threats, responding more to partisan and other petty issues that do not figure in the bigger picture. In the middle of the growing violence, accusations of selective treatment and handling of threats across the country are being levied against the government. The critics of the government are quick to cite the routing and crackdown on the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB), and the running out of town of its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, as an example. The treatment of the Shi’ites and their leader, Sheikh El Zakzaky, is also raised in the same light. The critics say that the fervour applied by security agencies against the considerably less violent IPOB and Shiites does not match the commitment in the serious fronts against the terrorists in the North-East. The accusations also assume ethnic dimensions, especially after an alleged offer of N100 billion to cattle herdsmen, who mostly share ethnic and business affinity with the president. The herdsmen are believed to have instigated killings in the communal clashes that plagued the country in recent years. The gravity of the plethora of security and economic issues must be acknowledged in all government communication, including possible speeches by the president. Nigerians do not want to hear a recanting of things that have been done, but are more interested in new measures and planned or on-going improvements on past measures. The thought of a next level of the status-quo, especially in the area of insecurity,
is a frightening one indeed. The government needs to be on the same page with Nigerians, by acknowledging their fears and uncertainties, instead of assuming a defensive and sometimes confrontational tone in official communications. The social investment programmes of the government must be improved with relevant technology and database systems for identification and social profiling of beneficiaries to ensure the survival and integrity of the programmes. The BVN initiative and National Identity card drive are already halfway in that direction. The government must also admit that a fresh approach is needed in tackling insecurity, and all cards must be on the table, including the subject of state police and fresh appointments into key positions in the short term. It appears that the major problem in the widespread security threats has been the government attempt to defend a losing position, rather than defend the country. In this new term, the body language of the Buhari administration must change. That is, if it is to completely avoid alienating the people. Nigerians do not have to speculate about the reasoning behind certain government actions or inaction, as it is this space left for speculations that is fueling the ethno/religious tensions and misinformation that have taken over the social media and other sources of information in recent times. Therefore, the government must be open, accountable and receptive to criticism, and there is no better way to signify this commitment than in the appointments made for this new dispensation. The belief in Nigeria, based on decades of enduring greedy politicians, is that the second term of an elected president or governor is a time to pillage and profit, without the pressure of a reelection contest hanging over the office holder. The president has an opportunity in the first days of this dispensation to direct the narrative of his final years in power into areas that suggest a genuine intention to do right by the people. One hopes that there will be a focus on sincerity and bridge-building in his second term, so Nigerians can truly feel that he belongs to us all.

OUR POSITION Judiciary, restraining orders and matters arising
K
een observers of the trend of litigations are worried that the issuances of courts injunctions restraining opponents and the National Independent Electoral Commission (INEC) that took front burner in the country following the October/ November 2018 party primaries have not abetted. The trend has even be reinforced by the erroneous perceived nature of the inconclusiveness of some of the elections at the Federal constituencies and State House of Assembly such that even when the elections are over, litigants still crowd the court seeking for one injunction or the others. The Courts also have not helped to curtail the influx, probably for the simple reason that the courts are bound to hear all manner of applications and suits. Perhaps, our politicians and their sponsors need to be told for the umpteenth time that once an election is held, the appropriate channel for them to lay complain about the conduct of the election shifts from the normal regular courts to the established election tribunals.
The Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended) made provisions for the establishment of Presidential Election Petition Tribunal which is presently hearing petitions that arose from 2019 presidential election. It also made provisions for the establishment of Governorship, National Assembly and States Houses of Assembly election Petition Tribunals. These tribunals are currently sitting at various locations across the country having been constituted even before the elections were held to exclusively hear complaints that will arise from the elections. We are therefore disturbed that some litigants who have genuine complaints to make about the conduct of election in their constituencies or the withholding of their perceived certificates of return by the umpire still approach the Federal High Court or State High Court when their grievances are not a pre -election matter. Just recently, Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Federal High Court Abuja had cause to dismiss one of such cases.

Akinremi also recommended building an economy that is information and communication technology driven,where ICT would be a lifestyle and integral part of the society. He said that ICT industry in Nigeria must be attractive, lucrative, enjoy respect and values like that of other professions. Akinremi also explained that access to timely information and
vast market was one of the ways that stands out in embracing ICT for business. “Among business owners, the issues of trust and security must be adequately addressed to ensure open acceptance of technology integration. “More attention needs to be given to user education and capacity development to enable the application of ICT and the use of digital tools and services acceptable by business owners, ‘’ he said.

Academy mobilises stakeholders Short News to tackle drug, substance abuse Agbaje denies dumping PDP for APC Kasara Chukwuma, Lagos Concerned about the wide spread abuse of drugs and other substances in the country, particularly among the youth, the Nigeria Academy of Pharmacy (NAPharm) says it is mobilising stakeholders in the pharmaceutical sector to tackle the menace. Addressing journalists in Lagos during a press briefing on its forthcoming symposium on drug abuse, Chairman, NAPharm Committee on Drug and Substance Abuse, Dr. Lolu Ojo, said the menace of drug abuse needs to be checked, otherwise, it would impair all the efforts being made to put the nation on a higher political and economic pedestal. Ojo stated that “as a frontline stakeholder in this matter, the academy has decided to mobilise all pharmaceutical professional, trade and regulatory groups to come together and assist government efforts designed to eliminate the scourge from the society. “Drug/substance abuse is a self-destructive indulgence that leads to significant problems or distress. It has suddenly assumed an alarming proportion among youth in Nigeria and could get
worse if care is not taken .We must do something now to stem the tide before it brings calamity on our society.” According to Ojo, the theme of the symposium which will be held at the Sheraton Hotel & Towers, Ikeja is: “Sustainable approach to eradication of drug and substance abuse in Nigeria,” while the Chief Executive Officer of Global Initiative on Substance Abuse, Dr. Martins Agwogie is the keynote speaker. Ojo noted that the symposium which will witness a panel discussion from major stakeholders in the health sector will have the wife of the President, Hajia Aisha Buhari as the special guest of honour. He said NApharm is poised to bring all stakeholders together to dialogue on the problem of drug and substance abuse in the country and proffer a lasting solution to the menace. “Together, we plan to do more work on the root cause and analysis of drug abuse, and provide information to government on remedies as it affects each age group. “We also wish to collaborate with the federal government’s Presidential Advisory Committee for Elimination of Drug Abuse, the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA), the police, Nigerian
Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), schools, youth groups and other relevant interest groups to ensure that this scourge is eliminated from our society,” Ojo said. In his remarks at the briefing, President, Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria (PSN), Mazi Sam Ohuabunwa, said pharmacists as custodians of drugs, were worried about the menace of drug abuse, urging his colleagues to ensure that drugs were not abused and misused. Ohuabunwa however, identified social pressure and uncoordinated drug distribution channel such as open drug market as factors triggering drug abuse and urged the government to close the open drug market by setting up a controlled regulated channel to effectively tackle the problem. Also speaking, a Professor of Pharmacy from the University of Lagos, Prof. Cecilia Igwilo, appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari to sign the Pharmacy Council of Nigeria (PCN) Bill into law. The academic said presidential assent to the bill would address the increasing challenges of drug abuse and misuse in Nigeria by ensuring stricter regulation and enforcement by the PCN on erring pharmacists and pharmaceutical industries.
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in the 2019 elections in Lagos, Jimi Agbaje, has denied reports that he has dumped the opposition party for the All Progressives Congress (APC). Media aide to the PDP candidate, Felix Oboagwina, who made the denial on Wednesday in Lagos, described social media posts that Agbaje had left the PDP to join the APC as untrue. According to him, the posts that Agbaje had joined APC have featured prominently on social media platforms such as WhatsApp and Facebook in the past few days. In his reaction, Oboagwina described the reports as fake news, saying they were figments of the imaginations of the authors, adding that Agbaje was still very much in PDP and that there was no way he could have joined APC on social media. “There is nothing like that, nothing like that at all. He is still in PDP; he has not defected. How can people say he has defected on social media? He is too big for that; he is in PDP,” Oboagwina said. When asked if there were plans by his principal to dump the PDP for APC, he answered in the negative.

Why federal, state govts must do more to save small businesses - Chidoka
Federal and state governments in Nigeria have been called upon to give the survival of small businesses the serious attention it deserves, in order to empower self-employed citizens, create more jobs and in the process tame the rising cases of unemployment in the country. The Chief Executive Officer of The Small Business Owners Initiative (TSBOI), Ikenna Chidoka made the call recently while speaking at a free-to- attend trade fair organized for online business owners in the country. The event which took place at the River Plate Park, Wuse 2, Abuja, was tagged #myabjhustle and was attended by 120 vendors of various online businesses with good customers’ turnout. According to Chidoka, TSBOI is an initiative created to provide a platform that connects people with products and services, especially online based entrepreneurs, through fairs. Apart from the fairs already organized in Lagos and Abuja, Chidoka said bigger events will take place in Kano, Owerri and other major cities towards the end of the year. “TSBOI was created to serve as a bridge that
connects small businesses that are online based. It is meant to bring together, entrepreneurs with vision of keying into the world market using opportunities provided by the new media including, Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp and other applications. “The idea is to mobilize these businesses and their owners, to exchange ideas on how to make maximum use and take advantage of the modern marketing skills through networking which is basically information sharing as well as create the one-centre-market every now and then, where customers who hitherto patronize them online could meet the vendors face to face in order to create lasting impressions and build business confidence. “The fairs are meant to create physical environment for producers and customers to meet and mingle. We believe nothing still beats the face to face meetings as regards sales. It creates trust among parties,” Chidoka stated. According to him, it was a deliberate decision to make attendance to the fairs, free of charge, in order to encourage small businesses to attend
and not be scared away by money, adding that the successes recorded in terms of enthusiasm and actual attendance is immeasurable. He said that the fair also serves as avenue to mobilize and form pressure groups for small businesses to articulate and harness ideas on how to influence government policies to favour small businesses in terms of taxes and such other matters. “We also use the opportunities of the fairs to talk about welfare of small businesses. It is at such fairs that business owners discuss like lobby groups on issues of taxes and sundry matters and how entrepreneurs can influence government policies affecting them,” he said. Calling on governments at all levels to take seriously the survival of small businesses in the country, Chidoka said over 90 percent of businesses in the private sector of the economy falls into the category under discussion, adding that government cannot but take their wellbeing as a matter of national importance, in order to create employment which would help to reduce security challenges facing the country.

No cut-off marks yet for 2019 academic session, says JAMB
The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) says it has not published the national and general minimum cut-off marks for placement of candidates into the nation’s tertiary institutions as being speculated in some quarters. The board’s Head, Media and Information, Dr. Fabian Benjamin, disclosed this on Wednesday in Lagos. According to him, there is no truth behind such speculations, adding that some persons, whom he described as fraudulent elements, were behind the development with a ploy to defraud candidates who sat for the examination. Benjamin said the cut-off marks can only be arrived at with the inputs of critical stakeholders in the education sector, scheduled for days ahead, adding that “we want to seize this opportunity to caution the public, especially candidates, not to allow themselves to be swindled by these desperate individuals that are peddling this rumour. “The board is yet to come up with any cut-off mark for placements into the various tertiary institutions across the country. The cut-off marks cannot be decided upon without the inputs of critical stakeholders in the education sector at an elaborate policy meeting,” he said. The JAMB spokesman explained that the next policy meeting would be held on June 11, at Gbongan in Osun state, disclosing that already, preparations for the meeting have been concluded. Expected at the meeting are officials of the Ministry of Education and other key stakeholders to determine the national cut-off mark.

APC accuses Udom of lobbying LG Short News chairmen to frustrate autonomy APGA resolves leadership crisis in Delta Isaac Job, Uyo
Chairman of the All Progressive Congress (APC) Youth Caucus in Akwa Ibom state, Obong Iniobong John has accused Governor Udom Emmanuel of spending N1.5 billion on council chairmen to frustrate the implementation of the local government financial autonomy in the state. In a statement made available to newsmen in Uyo, Obong John, alleged that the governor spent the N1.5 billion to get the endorsements of local government chairmen against the autonomy granted to local governments by the federal government. “Having failed to get the court to stop the implementation of the autonomy granted to local governments by the federal government, Akwa Ibom state government in collaboration with the 31 local government chairmen has concluded plans to sponsor street protests against the implementation of the directive of the federal government,” he said. Obong John disclosed that the meeting
to stage the street protest was convened yesterday at the Shelter Afrique residence of an immediate past commissioner in the state. He said those in attendance at the meeting were the 31 local government chairmen, chieftains of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and some members of the dissolved state executive council. “The anti-people protest which is tentatively fixed for June 6 would involve all the local government chairmen, councillors, supervisors, PDP officials at all levels, members of the PDP youth caucus, youth council and others. “As we speak, logistics for the protest like T-shirts and placards have been arranged. Why is the state government so jittery and desperate? Is it that the government can’t function without controlling local government funds?” Obong John queried. He warned council chairmen against embarrassing themselves and for them to stop their sycophancy describing it as absurd and hypocritical. However, chatting with journalists yesterday, the former Attorney-General of Akwa Ibom state and Commissioner for
Justice, Uwemedimoh Nwoko, explained that the state was not challenging the proposed local government autonomy nor is it opposed to it. He confirmed that state government is in court to challenge the powers of the Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit (NFIU) to superintend over the affairs of local government areas, which remains the statutory function of the legislature as enshrined in the constitution. Nwoko also said the decision of the state government to challenge the NFIU guidelines which is seeking to take over the control of local government areas was borne out of constitutional concerns and its implications. “What we are pursuing has nothing to do with the financial autonomy of local governments; it’s an issue that will be resolved in a totally different perspective. All we are saying is that the NFIU lacks the powers, be it in statute, constitutional or conventional in a federal structure to come to seek by mere guidelines to take over control and regulate the affairs of local governments, particularly in terms of finance,” he added.

He however, exuded confidence that the party is out to conquer new grounds as power has been given to the grassroots even as he said he had forgiven warring factions of the party in the interest of peace. “The way we were, we could not have made much impact. We have now taken power to the local governments so that we can get capable hands in order to build on what we did at the 2019 elections.

He said this at the third annual Ramadan lecture organised by the Kwara state council of Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) in Ilorin. Aremu said fresh hands were needed in the federal executive council for Buhari’s agenda to be realised. “President Buhari needs key ministers to drive this agenda and that is why he must think outside the box of his old cabinet. “As good as some of them had performed, the mood of Nigerians is that we need new energy, new skills, new creativity and that means you need new hands. “And Nigeria is not short of good men and women who can drive the agenda for development,” he added.

Eid-el-Fitr (the festival of the breaking of fast) marks the end of the Ramadan fast during which fast, abstentions from indulgence, utmost discipline, special prayers, giving of special charity and performance of other acts of piety are observed in total obedience and submission to Allah. The NLC President, Ayuba Wabba, said that this year’s celebration comes at a significant point in our national life when Nigeria is confronted by rising incidence of insecurity, unemployment, poverty,
instability and renewed separatists agitations. He called on the government to rededicate itself in its service to the nation especially on the issues of security, stability, economy, justice, and confidence building. ‘’Eid-el-Fitr comes at a significant point in our national life when we are confronted by rising incidence of insecurity, unemployment, poverty, instability and renewed separatists agitations. “We similarly urge all Nigerians, in spite of the overwhelming challenges in the polity to continue to have faith in their country and to do all that is necessary to safeguard and promote its sovereignty, integrity and prosperity. “We have no doubt, we shall overcome, as one people with a common destiny. Once again, wish our Muslim brethren a peaceful celebration.” Said Wabba Similarly, the TUC President, Comrade Bobboi Kaigama, while congratulating all Muslim faithful for the successful completion of the Ramadan fast enjoined all Nigerians to shun activities that defile their own body and, are also capable of
throwing the country into a major crisis such as hate speeches and other divisive tendencies. “The Trade Union Congress of Nigeria (TUC) congratulates all Muslim faithfuls for the successful completion of the Ramadan fast. The spiritual exercise which is one of the five pillars of Islam is necessary for both personal cleansing and maintenance of peace and tranquility in the country. “It is our belief that to achieve the next level of socio-economic development we must as a country first of all embrace peace. The world knows we are a very religious people which is why they wonder when godly virtues are not seen in the way and manner we conduct our activities. “This is the time to focus on our creator. This is the time to be patient and yielding. Let the Ramadan remind us that as a country we need to be upright and honest to achieve the dream of a prosperous country. We must all understand that our purpose in life is to live in obedience to our Creator’s will and to make other people happy. If we do these Nigeria will regain her glory.” Said Kaigama.

Short News Rivers residents condemn FG’s ban on licenced guns Amaka Agbu, Port Harcourt A cross section of residents in Rivers State have kicked against the recent law signed by President Muhammadu Buhari prohibiting private individuals in the country to own or carry prohibited weapons or gun. Most of the residents who aired their views on the issue insisted that the order, if implemented, would spell doom as majority of the people would be left defenseless. The residents who spoke on condition of anonymity, argued that the arms used by terrorists, gang members, and other criminals elements in the society were unlicensed and more sophisticated than what was permitted by the laws of Nigeria. One of the vocal residents stated: “Some of these people in authority know the politicians behind all these thugs and all these guns. If a gun is licensed, the police know the owner so if there is any crime committed with the licensed gun, they know who to go to. What is the essence of a gun being licensed? It is so that they will know the owner. So I don’t support the idea at all.”

LCCI advocates canvasses review of tax policies in Nigeria Joy Obakeye The Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI), has called on the government to review the tax policies of the country to align with the economic diversification drive. Director-General of LCCI, Muda Yusuf, who disclosed this in a statement in Lagos, said that the quality of the nation’s infrastructure, policies and institutions are crucial to driving economic diversification through a reversal of the tax burden from investors to consumers. “The three tiers of government targets investors more than consumers and this is not in consonance with best practice principles in taxation. “In an economy which is almost 50 percent informal, this structure of taxation is not investment friendly because the formal sector of the economy bears the largest burden of the tax system.” Yusuf said the use of banks as collection agents for the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) was disruptive, distracting, arbitrary, oppressive and unfair to investors. He noted that it was a serious disincentive to investment and the promotion of financial inclusion, adding that the approach should be discontinued. He also stressed that the trade policies should be guided by sectoral competitive and comparative advantage to ensure sustainability. Yusuf said that institutional capacity to enforce the policies should also be considered in trade policy formulation. “Policies should be focused on incentivizing resource-based industries which typically has a competitive advantage and good impact on the economy because of the high multiplier effect. “The relativity of tariffs between Nigeria and neighboring countries should also be considered in the formulation of trade policy”, he said. He stressed that fixing the country’s infrastructure was critical to building a competitive economy and a fundamental requirement for economic diversification and sustainable job creation. Yusuf said that transformation in the agricultural and manufacturing sectors largely depended on the quality of infrastructure. “A key focus of diversification should be on resource-based industries – agroallied, oil, and gas, manufacturing with high local content. “These sectors will strengthen the capacity of the economy to create jobs, drive inclusive growth, promote income redistribution and generally impact positively on the economy.” According to him, a lot of potentials still needs to be unlocked in the oil and gas sector, especially in refineries, fertilizers plants, gas-based industries, and petrochemicals. “We need to put an end to being just a crude oil exporter to self-sufficiency in petroleum products and exporter of refined products and other gas related products”, he said.

Nigeria needs $70bn to diversify into knowledge economy - Teniola As stakeholders call for protection of critical national infrastructure
Ladesope Ladelokun Nigeria needs at least $70 billion for its economy to be diversified from a petrol-centric economy to a knowledge-based economy, says President, Association of Telecommunications Companies of Nigeria (ATCON), Mr Olusola Teniola. Teniola, who was recently appointed the Chief Executive Officer of Phase 3- West Africa’s largest fibre optic infrastructure and telecommunications service provider- told The Daily Times in an exclusive interview that the said amount will be spent over a period of 10 to 15 years, and it will represent investments in further deployment of fibre, 5G, 4G equipment, business support system, handsets,
core network equipment, et al. And most importantly, ensure that there is education of youths in science and technology, engineering and mathematics. He further stressed that issues surrounding the $70 billion investment will form a major highlight of the forthcoming fifth telecom executive\regulator forum that will hold on July 11, 2019, adding that burning issues like local content, cybercrime, especially cybercrime act which speaks to critical national infrastructure. Teniola lamented the unceasing multiple fibre cuts suffered by telecom operators, destruction of base stations due to nebulous and undisclosed reasons for the collection of illegal taxes. He, however, enjoined the Federal
Government to harmonise all taxes charged telecommunications companies to ensure that the industry continues to enjoy Foreign Direct Investments and Local Direct Investments. Recall that Chairman, Association of Licensed Telecommunications Operators of Nigeria (ALTON), Mr Gbenga Adebayo, had expressed worry over the protracted issue of multiple taxation at the recently held Nigerian Telecom Leadership Summit in Lagos. According to Adebayo, Telecom operators pay not less than 39 different taxes, noting that the much desired FDIs would continue to be hindered if the current hostile business environment persists. On his new appointment as Phase3 CEO, Teniola described the company as “home”
because he started his career in Nigeria at Phase 3 almost ten years ago. He said his areas of focus in the next 100 days would be transforming the organisation along the lines of digital transformation and resolving its issue with the Transmission Company of Nigeria(TCN) which borders on the denial by the Director General to allow it unfettered access to its equipment. “They are frustrating us because they have not allowed us to have proper dialogue to resolve issues that are really common in business relationships. We really need the presidency, DSS and ONSA to actually intervene so we can have a business discussion on areas that have to do with the way we work together”, he explained.
Afreximbank okays $140m credit facility for Eswatini Mathew Dadiya, Abuja
The African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank) has approved a credit facility valued at up to two billion Rands (about $140 million) to the Kingdom of Eswatini to enable the Kingdom achieve required funding to meet trade and strategic economic goals. Afreximbank’s President, Prof. Benedict Oramah disclosed this in Mbabane. Director and Global Head, Communications and Branding, Obi Emekekwue on Wednesday, stated that that the facility would also enable the Kingdom to leverage its future financial flows as a tool for economic development. Oramah who addressed King Mswati III of the Kingdom of Eswatini on 31 May when he
led an Afreximbank delegation to a two-day state visit to the Kingdom, briefed him on a joint declaration which Afreximbank signed with officials of the Kingdom. King Mswati III commended Afreximbank for the assistance and services it was committing to the country and welcomed the signing of the joint declaration as a key contribution toward the development of the Kingdom. Earlier, during the signing ceremony, Neal Rijkenberg, Minister of Finance of Eswatini, who signed the Joint Declaration on behalf of the government, said that the facility, when finally effective would help to address development opportunities before the kingdom. Mr. Rijkenberg said that Eswatini could use Afreximbank’s assistance for advisory services
in converting Eswatini’s agro-processing potential into a leading export driver. He also invited the bank to explore opportunities in the tourism and manufacturing sectors. The delegation also met with Prime Minister Ambrose Mandvulo Dlamini who commended the Bank’s commitment and dedication to Eswatini since it became a member of the Bank and said that the Bank’s support was invaluable to the Kingdom’s economic growth and expansion. Oramah affirmed Afreximbank’s commitment to supporting the economic growth of Eswatini, saying, “We want to be relevant to the country. This visit will help us chart a more aggressive course to support the development of the country. There are many areas in which we
can assist.” Prof. Oramah identified the timber industry as a sector where Afreximbank could provide support. He noted that Eswatini had a large supply of timber and recommended that the government should develop a policy for the processing. The delegation also attended a breakfast meeting hosted by the Prime Minster and attended by Mr. Rijkenberg; Senator Manqoba Khumalo, the Minister of Commerce; Dr Tambo Gina, the Minister of Economic Planning; and Andrew Le Roux, CEO of Montigny, the largest timber company in Eswatini. The delegation was accompanied on the visit by representatives of Elsewedy Electric, an Afreximbank Intra-African Trade Champion.
Shell increases yearly investment to $30bn Micheal Ajayi Royal Dutch Shell (SHELL) has announced its plan to increase capital spending by improving its investment up from a prior range of $25 billion to 30billion per year. The energy major in its strategy update said its focusing on its traditional oil and gas businesses despite a new push into power and cleaner fuels and that it’s new investing scheme will run
between the years 2021-25. The company’s chief executive, Ben van Beurden, said that the company would continue to make “sustained” investments into its traditional oil and gas businesses to ensure it “is resilient through the time ahead”. Even as oil demand “might peak in the next decade or bit more” he said decline rates in existing fields would require new investment. Shell plans to spend $11-13bn to maintain, rather than expand, its oil exploration and production
business in the coming years. Integrated gas, cleaner fuels and chemicals will be its growth divisions. “The bulk of our investment will be in themes that will drive energy transition”, said Mr van Beurden. With its ambitions to become the largest electricity company by the 2030s, Mr van Beurden said Shell would move “in step” with society as the company prepares for a shift in global energy supplies towards lower-carbon sources. “As long as people are showing up [at fuel
stations] with their diesel cars we cannot do it with renewable power,” he added. Mr van Beurden said that even as Shell would “act with conviction” in the power space, it would need to “prove the investment case before we scale up” in an acknowledgment of lower margins for traditional utilities. However the Anglo-Dutch energy company becomes more confident in its ability to generate cash, having spent the last few years cutting costs as it recovered from the 2014 oil price crash.

Economic environment, corruption, others bane of family businesses in Nigeria - PwC Godwin Anyebe A new report by PwC, a leading financial advisory organisation, has identified the economic environment, corruption and regulation as the top challenges affecting the performances of family businesses in Nigeria. The study, however, says many of the businesses are weathering the storm owing to a strong business values cultivated over the years, The report titled PwC’s 2018 Family Business Survey was unveiled at an event attended by top business executives and regulators in Lagos, recently. PwC, in the report, has urged family businesses to maximise the competitive advantage that comes from their strong valueled culture. The survey is a global market study among key decision makers in family businesses within a number of PwC’s key territories with a view
to understanding family business executives’ thoughts on key contemporary issues. Themed ‘building a lasting competitive advantage through your values and purpose in a digital age’, this year’s edition says family business leaders reported robust performances last year, with growth hitting its highest level since 2007. According to the well-researched document, growth among Nigerian family businesses in the year reviewed was lower than the global average. It shows that 53 per cent of the operators reported growth as against the 69 per cent global average. However, 87 per cent of the respondents, according to the survey, expect to grow in the next two years, with 40 per cent saying that “growth will be quick and aggressive”. A statement by the firm said: “The top three challenges cited by Nigerian family businesses as militating against the personal and business goals are economic environment (70 per cent), corruption (67 per cent) and regulation (57
per cent). Corruption, which PwC estimates could cost up to 37 per cent of Nigeria’s GDP by 2030 if unchecked, is associated with lower investment, higher prices as well as (causing) barriers of entry for businesses. “Most strikingly, the 2018 edition of the survey demonstrates a link between putting values at the heart of strategic planning and strong growth prospects. While 67 per cent of Nigerian family businesses have a clear sense of agreed values and purpose, less than half (43 per cent) of respondents have those values articulated in written form,” said the report. Uyi Akpata, Country Senior Partner, PwC Nigeria, said: “The message is clear; adopting an active stance towards company values generates practices that pay off in real terms. A commitment to a clearly defined set of values can act as an ‘inner compass’ and provide a competitive edge for a family business as it navigates the challenges of technological and competitive disruption.” “What this survey clearly indicates, however,
is that family business values are not simply the same as family values. Business values should be clearly defined and articulated; they should also be strongly embedded in the business culture and the day-to-day decision-making regularly reviewed.” Esiri Agbeyi, Partner and Head of Private Wealth Services, PwC Nigeria, added: “A key take away from our findings are that there is an opportunity for family business owners that are committed to and adhere to a deep sense of social responsibility and sustainability to invest their resources in a manner that is consistent with their values.” “Also, the next generation is key to a family business’ lasting legacy and not involving them in plans to pass on the business risks disengagement. It is crucial to have a written and documented plan for the continuity of the business to improve transparency and trust. The next generation needs time to build a collective sense of purpose and be supported in developing their framework for success.”
Prepaid metre: EEDC declares official sales at N37, 000 Micheal Ajayi The Enugu Electricity Distribution Company (EEDC) has announced the official sale of Prepaid meter at N36,991.50K and N67,055.85K for single phase and three phases respectively, excluding Value Added Tax (VAT). The programme was described by the company’s head of communication, Emeka Ezeh, as Meter Asset Provider (MAP), is believed to close up the metering
gap on the customers. EEDC has however called on its customers to take advantage of the initiative and get metered within 10 days of paying for the meter. According to Ezeh, the company has been working closely with its MAP provider, Mojec International Limited, to ensure that “the experience is smooth and easy for its customers.” He said: “For customers to get started, they are expected to visit the EEDC District Office in charge of their area from June 15, to pick up the meter
application form. “The forms, which are serialized, will be issued to customers free of charge and should not be photocopied, as the photocopied version will not be treated. “Once the customer completes the form and returns same to the customer service representative, the pre-survey process will be initiated, after which the customer will be issued a Demand Note with which to pay for the meter at the designated bank. “Once payment is made, the company’s MAP
provider is under obligation to meter the customer within 10 days of payment. “Customers are therefore advised to only make payment into a dedicated bank account that will be provided to them, and not to any individual or group. “It is important to reiterate that the meter application form is issued at no cost and customers should make payment to a designated bank account that will be provided to them through the Demand Note, and they should not pay to any staff of the MAP or EEDC.”

The ANPG will embark on an international roadshow in September to engage with investors in Houston, London and Dubai prior to opening the tendering process in October. “Our message to the global oil industry is simple: Angola is open for business. We are ready to seriously engage with existing and new players, be they international oil companies, national oil companies, independents and mid-sized operators and get them to explore in Angola.” This is the first public auction in Angola since the pre-salt layer blocks auction of 2011 and the first of a series of licensing rounds that will see as many as 55 blocks put up for public bidding or direct negotiations until 2025. It follows the strategy set out under Presidential Decree No. 52/19 released last February to boost exploration, maximize reserves replacement and ultimately increase national production of oil & gas. The strategy maps the auctioning of 31 blocks under public bidding in 2019, 2020 and 2023. It is also the first to take place under the oversight of the ANPG. The licensing round will be carried out under Angola Law No. 10/14 of November 12, 2004 (the Petroleum Activities Law, as amended by Law No. 5/19 of April 18, 2019), and Angola Presidential Decree No. 86/18 of April 2, 2018, which establishes the Rules and Procedures of Public Tenders, and Bidders’ eligibility to be in Association with the National Concessionaire and for the Procurement of Goods and Services in the oil sector. As the new national concessionaire, the ANPG will notify shortly, through announcements on its website and in national and international media, the dates for the forthcoming roadshows where the Agency will present technical information on the blocks to be offered.

Whether in majority or minority party in parliament, my focus is to work for my constituents - Nakwada Hon. Musa Wakili Nakwada is the House of Assembly member-elect representing Bogoro Local Government Area of Bauchi State. In this interview with Daily Times Correspondent, SAMUEL LUKA, he speaks on his plans for the People of his constituency. He also berated the 8th Assembly in the state for passing a bill repealing an existing law that allows for the recovery of public properties stolen by government officials and other issues. Honourable, having been elected to represent your constituency, what do you have in stock for them? First of all, let me thank God for giving me the great opportunity to represent my people at the State Assembly. I developed passion for politics, I think right from my childhood, my father have been a politician since those days. I was born in that family, and I saw my father helping people and so I felt let me also follow his footsteps. I have been a civil servant who has served government for twenty Six years. Even though as a civil servant, in those days you are not suppose to fully be in politics, but politics is a vast kind of thing, lobbying people, coming closer to people. If you want to be a politician I think you have to embrace the people. So, I have this vision of helping people, coming together with people, discussing with people, wanting people to really come together and discuss issues. So, seeing that you cannot gather people, you cannot be that popular without being a politician, and seeing the way my father was doing, the way he was interacting with people not minding the ethnicity, the religion, you know, in politics everybody is your own, people of different religion, people of different tribe, you will be with them, you will discuss with them, you mingle with them, so, I felt you can help your people more if you are a politician. Because sometimes if you are not a politician you have reservations, some people will not even be open with you, they will not come closer to you, but as a politician, even people that you are not in the same party with them, they will come closer to you, they will not feel free to ask you questions, to ask you for assistance. I think a politician can assist more, compared to people that are not politicians. As a politician, your doors should always be open for everybody, the children, your age group, your seniors, the elders, the youths and also the old ones, they can come to you at any time. So, you can talk to people, mingle with people. In occasions people will see you, interact with them, so I have that zeal, and definitely I have the passion for helping people in many ways, especially these days that employment is becoming very difficult. So, as a politician you can assist people to maybe go through training so that they can acquire skills so that our youths can be self-reliant. So, I joined politics to make me develop a lot of people. You are taking over from somebody.
Where do you intend to start from going by what your predecessor has done or started? To me anything that is good is good and anything that is bad is bad. Where the previous government did things that are right we will continue from there, those that are not right we will abandon them. I know that every government usually come with its own intention, for example, if the previous government is building a school and is not completed I will not say let us abandon it and do a new one, all the projects started that are beneficial to our people will be prioritised, what we have at heart is Bauchi State and its entire citizens. I don’t like a system where if someone is doing something good another government will come and say it will start afresh, this is not a good way of doing things. If somebody is doing a good thing it should be completed. Our problem is what does the people of Bauchi State need. For example, if the people of Bauchi are crying for school and somebody say okay, let us go and buy aeroplane, I don’t think that is what the people of Bauchi State want. So we will make sure that we do the needful by ensuring that what our people want is what we will do and not those projects that are not necessary. I will only be a party to decisions that will uplift the living condition of my people. Your predecessor served only one term of four years and was changed by your people. What did he do that you intend to do different? I think the issue of leadership, especially somebody that came to power through election, it is the people that elected the previous lawmaker, so people still felt that he was not performing well, that was why they replaced him after spending four years. I am taking over from somebody who spent only four years, and in my local government this is the only time a member will spend only four years, most of the members have been spending eight years. But the situation is, if you see things like that, that means the person have performed below the expectations of the electorates, because if he performed to their expectations I don’t think he would have spent only four years and they decided not to vote for him again. I think it depends on ones’ performance. So, I am praying that God will help me to do the needful. I did campaign and I know what I told them and I want to do more than what I promised them.
A party is just a platform that helps a politician to be elected, you cannot be elected until you come through a political party, but a member is a member and to me my main aim and vision is to see how Bauchi State will be developed, the issue of party does not even arise because as members, for example, a speaker can come from any party, not minding whether he is from the PDP or from the APC, whether the PDP have the majority, or the APC has the majority
he wants. So, these are things that will have a direct bearing on your people. So, I have a lot of things in my mind that I will come with it. There are some laws that when you come with it, for example, I read forestry, people can go there, destroying trees, you can see problem of erosion, problem of desertification, so when you come up with a law that will guard against cutting of trees , you will discover that it has a direct benefit to our people. So, in making laws, there are laws that when you come with, it will definitely help the people.
Nakwada What do you think endeared the people of your constituency to vote for you? You know, if you are a man of the people and you are always with them and they can access you at the time they want, the time they want to see you and you avail yourself, there are some things they want you to do and you are doing it, that will give them confidence, that will make them to give you their votes. The votes that I received from my constituency is beyond expectation, because my opponent, that is the person that contested under the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress at that time, I think the difference in my votes and his own is more than nine thousand, because he got about eight thousand and something while I got about seventeen thousand votes, I cannot tell you the number actually, but I know that is the figure. So, I think my people really supported me seriously and they know me very well, I will be accessible and I will try my best. The constitutional responsibility of legislators is to make laws, put the executive arm to checks and what have you. What should the people of your constituency expect from you? There are a lot of things that they can benefit from me. You know, before you even talk about developmental projects, at the National or state Assembly, there are a lot of laws that you come with that will have a direct bearing on your people, you approve budgets, without the budget being approved most of these projects will not be executed. So, you see a kind of the determination of maybe the governor, what
You are coming to the Assembly that is dominated by APC, don’t you think it will pose a serious challenge to you in such a way that your voice would not be heard? Well, to me that is not a challenge. A party is just a platform that helps a politician to be elected, you cannot be elected until you come through a political party, but a member is a member and to me my main aim and vision is to see how Bauchi State will be developed, the issue of party does not even arise because as members, for example, a speaker can come from any party, not minding whether he is from the PDP or from the APC, whether the PDP have the majority, or the APC has the majority, if the members know what they are doing they will elect somebody that will really keep the house in order and again facilitate to make sure that we develop our state and our constituencies. So, issue of party is not a challenge to me. Recently, 13 out of 31 state lawmakers passed a bill repealing an existing law that allows for the recovery of public properties stolen by government officials. What is your reaction to that? I cannot be a party to that one. To me, that is, let me say a childish play. There is no how, we are talking about transparency, any person that executes a particular project and decided that nobody should now check on him I don’t think that is the right thing to do. If to say, most of the governments that were there before them did like that, I can say that after I serve I will go away with the government house , government house will belong to me, so I think that law should not be assented to. One of the constitutional responsibilities of legislators is not only to make laws, but to also check the excesses of the executive arm. How prepared are you to join your fellow house members in carrying out such task? I will not be a party to anything that will be done in negative, so anything that will be done positively that will really make my state to move ahead is what I will do and I have to supervise most of the things that belongs to my constituency, be it their rights, their belongings, I wouldn’t like a situation whereby my constituency will be shortchanged in anything, I will not be a party to that.

If education is too expensive, try ignorance- Alaba Lawson It was fun at Jordan Hill Creative Writing & Reading Workshop recently as young authors were celebrated in grand style. Six books written for children, five of which were written by children, were launched at the event set aside to mark this year’s Children’s Day. According to the Chief Launcher, Chief (Mrs.) Alaba Lawson, who is also the Chairman, Governing Council of the Moshood Abiola Polytechnic, Abeokuta, “Education is the right legacy, and if you think it is too expensive, try ignorance”. Lawson, who is the immediate past President of Nigerian Association of Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture (NACCIMA), in declaring the new releases from the Jordan Hill Books open to the public, further urged parents to value both boys and girls as children and raise both of them equally, not neglecting one over the other. The Iyalode of Egbaland also congratulated Jordan Hill for the steadfast and consistent manner in which the problem of illiteracy is being tackled in Lagos and encouraged them to move to other states of the country to reach out to more children. Also speaking at the event was an official from the Curriculum Review Department, Ministry of Education Lagos State, Mr. Samson Adeleye, who congratulated the young writers for their writing prowess and encouraged them to focus on things that add value to them and society.

Dangote Refinery boosts educational devt in host communities To bridge the gap in Nigeria’s education sector and enable it contribute effectively to economic development, Dangote Refinery and Petrochemicals has taken up a proactive measure by embarking on an integrated tripartite approach to boost quality of education in the public schools around host communities in Ibeju Lekki, Lagos State. This approach includes a scholarship programme for students, a Train-The-Trainers Capacity Building Initiative for teachers and school infrastructure projects to improve the quality of education in the communities. To ensure students receive quality education, Dangote Oil Refinery and Petrochemicals in collaboration with NurtureHouse Limited, a company founded to strengthen quality education through enhanced teaching and learning and capacity development of teachers, organised a capacity building programme for Secondary Schools teachers and Principals in Ibeju-Lekki area of Lagos recently. The training sessions were delivered using practical, hands-on approach to learning. The sessions provided participants with opportunities to collaborate as well as practice knowledge and skills acquired. At the end of each session, each participant was guided on reflective practices and action
planning to encourage implementation of skills acquired when they return to their schools. Teachers were exposed to 21st Century best practices in “Cognitive Development and Impact on Learning” as well as “Effective Pedagogical Skills”. The personal action plans produced at the end of the two-day Professional Development Programme is expected to motivate the teachers to implement their plans. Speaking on the importance of the programme, Group Social Specialist, Group Health, Safety, Social and Environment (HSSE), Dangote Industries Limited, Mrs. Adenike Olaoye, said the capacity building programme underlines the huge impact that the company has in ensuring quality education in the host communities. According to her, the programme sponsored by Dangote Refinery and Petrochemicals has kick-started a positive ripple effect that would be felt in the host communities for years to come. She stated: “This initiative and many more happening in the host communities are being driven by the Group HSSE department of Dangote Industries. The teachers training is part of the education and training component of our Community Development Plan (CDP)
for our host communities. Ultimately, the CDP aims at building the capacities of local institutions within the communities so they become self-sustaining communities that can drive its own development thereby ensuring sustainable development.” Also speaking, the Chief Executive Officer, NurtureHouse Limited, Mrs. Ayopeju Njideaka, said the programme was structured to help teachers gather new 21st Century skills and also for administrators to understand what their roles were. She said: “This programme will enable the 21st Century teacher deliver quality education. We had two days for teachers and one day for educational administrators. For the administrators, we trained them on instructional leadership. Leadership of education is no longer about sitting in the office and taking attendance. It is actually about ensuring that quality teaching and learning is practiced in the classrooms. “The training is expected to motivate teachers and principals to work positively. Once a motivated adult walks into a classroom to teach, the students will also be motivated and teachers will be renewed with even more skills to teach them better. Ultimately, learning outcome is expected to improve.”
Chief Executive of Unique Schools, Isheri-Magodo, Lagos, Mrs. Ebun Ayere-Alatise, has said that the honour roll award instituted by the school about eight years ago with the aim of promoting academic excellence among students, has encouraged healthy competition among them as it also spurs them to work harder. “When we started eight years ago, there were only 13 scholars but today the number has increased to 34 which means students are now striving to also wear the Blue-Tie as a mark of honour and Distinction, so what this has achieved for the school is that we are raising brilliant future leaders and parents are also reaping the fruits of their labour,” she said. Corroborating her point, Vice chairman of Unique Group of Schools governing council, Dr. Martins Agwogie, stressed the importance of celebrating children who have performed excellently in their academics as it boosts their morals. The vice chairman said this at the honour roll award/prefects inauguration held at the school premises in Isheri Magodo, recently, adding that such scholars are distinguished from other students with their Blue ties different from the conventional red-coloured tie worn by other students. According to him, it is a great event to celebrate students that have done excellently well in their academics and also to encourage everyone to work hard and be one of the exceptional students. “The event has a way of encouraging others because in the course of the decoration of the scholars with the blue ties, some that have never worn the blue tie are also doing so for the first time. “Over the years those that have never worn the blue tie before have been working hard to see that they score the mark for the blue tie and today they are being celebrated and they are happy that they have been able to achieve it so what that means is that it encourages others to be more committed in their studies,” he said. He also said the award encourages academic excellence as well as discipline in the students and teachers who also have to put in their best to see that students do well. He, however, warned parents whose children were not awarded that it is not a good reason or justification for them to tongue-lash the children for not wearing the blue tie. Principal of the school, Mrs. Oluwakemi Onochie, explained why the school management usually sets aside a day annually to honour its brilliant students referred to as Unique Scholars. “Honour roll award in Unique Height is put together to reward students who cumulatively scored ‘A’ grades in not less than 10 subjects including English and Mathematics at the Junior Secondary School level and ‘A’ grades in not less than seven subjects including Mathematics and English at the Senior Secondary School level”, she said. Guest speaker at the occasion, Mrs. Olayinka Oluwadare, also stressed the importance of inculcating the spirit of excellence in children during their formative years especially in a challenging society such as Nigeria. Oluwadare spoke on “Making Excellence a Habit in a Challenging Society” where she said that to make excellence a habit, there is the need to study the excellent God who is the originator. Oluwadare who described Nigeria as a challenging society said this is a nation where people are ruled by mediocre and failures.

Wydad have in recent years missed the title but Babatunde acknowledged the Midas touch of Experienced 69-year-old Tunisian coach Faouzi Benzarti on their side this term. “Our coach is such an experienced person; a good tactician and he has a way of getting the best out of his players,” noted Babatunde

Lessons from Suleja’s royal gladiators (III)

By Mohammed Adamu Many lawyers said that Abuja’s High court judge, Justice Oyewo exceeded his bounds by declaring Bashir Barau the validly nominated emir of Suleja and by ordering his immediate appointment. Reason being that the Kingmakers, in their prayers did not ask for such declaration or order. Many said technically therefore they were not entitled to such gratuitous exercise of judicial discretion by the judge. The court -not being Father Christmasgrants only that which has been prayed for. The Kingmakers did not ask for a declaration that Barau was the validly nominated emir and that he should immediately be installed. They had only prayed the court to declare: 1, that the reconstitution of the Kingmakers’ Council which elected Awwal Ibrahim was illegal, 2, that the three additional kingmakers imposed on the Council were incompetent to perform the function of king-making; 3, that the Order which created the Electoral College was illegal, null and void and 4, that the nomination and subsequent approval of Awwal as Emir were equally illegal, null and void. And although Awwal’s appeal at the Court of Appeal in Kaduna against that lower court’s judgment was dismissed by a majority of two to one, the same Court had earlier granted him an injunction restraining the Niger State Government from acting on that lower court’s orders pending the determination of the substantive appeal. But then you wonder ‘would Governor Musa Inuwa –who had gone through thick and thin to make Awwal king- have needed an order to restrain him from removing same and installing Barau? Or maybe the appropriate question should be: ‘what if suddenly there was another governor and not Musa Inuwa?’ Would he have felt equally obligated to be restrained by one order of court not to remove Awwal and not by another order of court to install Barau? Because during the pendency of that Court of Appeal’s restraining order, a Military Administrator, Colonel Cletus Emein was soon posted to Niger State who now felt more obligated to obey the lower court’s ruling ordering the removal of Awwal and the installation of Barau than he thought he should obey the superior court’s orders that he maintained the status quo. And so in September of 1995, Colonel Emein, in the typical military’s firebrigade way of doing things, ignored the Court of Appeal’s restraining order, first by enacting an instrument, Edict No. 1 of 1995 revoking Awwal’s appointment, in line, he claimed, with the ‘Public Officers’ (Special Provision) Decree No. 17 of 1984, cap 381 which gave military governors power to so act because it had ousted the jurisdiction of the courts to enquire why. The order also revoked all other instruments for the appointment
of Awwal as emir, so that by all conceivable implications he now stood technically deposed. And less than a month thereafter –precisely on the 23rd of October- Colonel Emein issued, in quick succession, a banishment order on the emir restricting him from the Emirate’s area of jurisdiction and its environs for a period of six months, and then an order which dissolved Governor Inuwa’s ‘Electoral College’ while reconstituting the original traditional Kingmakers’ Council which was now reconvened immediately to nominate Barau again. And on the 26th of October 1995 Colonel Emein enacted another instrument appointing Bashir Barau as the emir of Suleja with effect from the 20th of October -relying also, as he claimed, on the State’s ‘Chiefs (Appointment and Deposition) Law of 1993’. So now Awwal Ibrahim had not only been deposed and banished, he had lost also the support and protection of the Niger State Government. Under Dr. Inuwa the State had not only fought to make him king, but it was also a corespondent with him before the courts. But now no thanks to Colonel Emein, the State, ironically, had suddenly become Awwal’s adversary-in-Chief as he pulled a lone-ranging battle to the Supreme Court to reclaim his throne. And now also, the outcome of Awwal’s appeal at the apex Court which I am about to present, should be instructive both to the blue-blooded whenever they gladiate to hold on, or to ascend, to the thrones of their forefathers and even to giddy, mighty potentates whenever they dabble into the intrigues of royal succession or the politics of creation of emirates and chiefdoms. And it why one should say it is too early in the day for Sanusi to grieve –in Kano where it seems he has lost primeval royal territories or for the Ganduje to rejoice –that his obviously-political gerrymandering of Kano’s royal borders has come to stay. Whenever a matter is before the courts, you never can say never. Or as the Hausas would say ‘ba’a sanin maci tuwo sai miya ta qare’. Meaning ‘it is not over until it is over’. The law is not concerned with who is right or who is wrong according to the morality or otherwise of a legal proposition. The courts are concerned with who is right according to law. And it is immaterial that the law is essentially an unjust law. What matters is that it is the law, validly enacted as such. The courts are concerned about legal and not necessarily moral justice. Represented by Sofola SAN and Sodangi Danso, Awwal’s prayers at the Supreme Court were for 1, a declaration that the nomination of Bashir Barau by Colonel Emein’s reconstituted Kingmakers’ Council was wrongfully made since the council was not properly constituted in accordance with the native law and custom of the emirate(Besides,
all the processes by which he was crowned were done in contempt of a subsisting order of the Court of Appeal); 2, a declaration that the law which brought him (Awwal) to the throne, namely the ‘Chiefs (Appointment and Deposition) Amendment Law’ NSLN No. 3 of 1993 was properly enacted having been passed by the House of Assembly of Niger State and assented to by the Governor (notwithstanding the State had to muscle its way through the legislative process to perfect); 3, that the lower Courts (namely the Abuja High Court and the Kaduna Court of Appeal) which upheld the appointment of Bashir were wrong in declaring as illegal the instruments upon which his (Awwal’s) appointment was made. Although all three prayers were granted by a seven-man panel of the Supreme Court headed by the then Chief Justice of the Federation, Justice Uwais, the apex Court acted with the utmost sense of discretion not to grant a consequent order about which no prayer was made by Awwal’s council, namely a declaration that Awwal Ibrahim remained the duly installed emir of Suleja and that he should be restored to the throne immediately. And now since there was no court order by which the sitting pro-Barau Military Administrator would be compelled to restore Awwal to the throne, and since the Supreme Court was the court of last instance, the entire judgment was now left prostrate without consequence and at the discretion of lawyers, the State and laymen to interpret: many lawyers said no matter what the State Government would do it had to first restore Awwal to the throne; the State said that its understanding of the judgment was that both Awwal and Barau stood deposed (the former by virtue of the Public Officers (Special Provisions) Decree which Colonel Emein invoked in revoking his appointment, and the latter, by the Supreme Court’s nullification of the instruments that brought him to the throne) and that therefore the State could commence a fresh process of nomination either involving or excluding the two royal gladiators. It took the advent of a third Governor, the late Abdulkadir Kure, in the year 2000, to resolve this legal issue administratively by recalling -or should we say inviting– Awwal Ibrahim to resume the throne of Suleja Zazzau, ending the eight-year royal tussle once and for all. By then, Governor Inuwa who started it all in 1993 (when Kure himself was just an engineering Director in FCDA), was himself now a mere bystander like the rest of us. Now he could not have commanded the issuance of that simple administrative recall. Concluded
Flying Eagles protest unpaid bonuses in Poland Nigeria’s Flying Eagles on Tuesday staged a protest over their unpaid match bonuses and allowances at the U-20 World Cup in Poland. The Paul Aigbogun side crashed out of the tournament following their 2-1 loss to Senegal in the round of 16 at the Lodz stadium on Monday. It was gathered after the game that the team were scheduled to travel back to Nigeria on Tuesday but refused to leave their hotel rooms until their outstanding bonuses were paid. A player, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said. “We did not get a dime from the NFF and only played the games for pride. “It was a tough tournament for us but I must confess we tried our best,” he said. “We were promised our bonuses but some of the players felt we might not get it, hence the protest.” It was also learnt that after pleas from the officials of the team in Poland, the players agreed to fly to Warsaw, for their journey home on Tuesday. It was also gathered that players based in
England, Italy, Norway and Sweden were handed air tickets to return to their respective base, while the remaining players would return today. This is not the first time a Nigerian team wil protest over unpaid bonuses at an international competition. At the 2004 Africa Women’s Cup of Nations in South Africa, the Super Falcons refused to board their flight home in protest over unpaid match bonuses, after winning the continental title. Twelve years later, the Falcons embarked on another protest outside the National Assembly in Abuja over owed allowances following their record eighth triumph at the 2016 AWCON in Cameroon. The team refused to leave their hotel in the capital city until they received their bonuses – $17,150 for each player. The Super Eagles refused to train ahead of their round of 16 clash against France at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil following a dispute between officials and players over allowances.
WWC: Asisat Oshoala reveals biggest dream with Nigeria in France Barcelona forward Asisat Oshoala has set sights on winning the Women’s World Cup with Nigeria in France during the off-season. Oshoala won her third consecutive African Women’s Footballer of the Year title in 2018, but her efforts were not enough to earn her a fourth trophy this year. In search for better form, the 24-year-old made a loan move to Barcelona, where she scored eight goals in 11 outings in 2019 and was rewarded with a three-year contract by the Spanish outfit. Having sorted her club future, all eyes will be on the maiden BBC Women’s Footballer of the Year as she
hopes to replicate her fine form on the world stage. “Working out with the team, training really good [for Women’s World Cup in France],” Oshoala told Goal. “I’m trying my best to keep the environment positive for myself and make myself happy and enjoy football. “I’m not under any pressure. I’m not a player looking for a club or whatever. I’m just here to have fun and give my best as always. “My biggest dream in France is to help the team win the [Women’s World Cup] trophy.” Oshoala is regarded as African’s most successful female footballer and she will
