Gbajabiamila Seeks Closer Ties With UAE [REASONS] by kirajustice: 6:17pm On Sep 12, 2019

There is a need for closer bilateral relationships between Nigeria and the United Arab Emirate (UAE), the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila has said.

The Speaker, who received the Ambassador of the United Arab Emirate to Nigeria in his office during a courtesy visit on Thursday assured that expedited legislative action would be taken on outstanding bilateral agreements aimed at enhancing cooperation between the two countries as soon as the House resumes from its annual vacation.

Stating that Nigeria is a country that seeks cooperation with other countries for the benefit of the people, the Speaker noted that UAE is a model State with remarkable growth, which Nigeria hopes to replicate.

He said: "For us, we always look for cooperation, we always look for friends who can enhance and grow our relationships as a legislature, even as a country.

"Of course, yours is a model State, your remarkable growth and development over the years is something we all look to replicate here in Nigeria.

"There's is no doubt or question that we want to open up new shores, new avenues, new frontiers beyond our traditional trading partners and UAE obviously is already calling and yearning for investments and bilateral relationships that cut across borders between the two countries.

"On the Agreements which you talked about, I'm well aware that we have domesticated some, you said about six of them, two are outstanding, we will take these up as soon as we get back from the annual vacation.

"We will fast track the process to make things easier between the two countries.

"I just want to encourage you, as we encourage ourselves that we need to cement the areas with some grey areas.

"President Muhammadu Buhari has been there because he is interested in exploring avenues for good working and bilateral relationships between our two countries"

The Speaker also expressed the desire of the House of Representatives to work closely with the UAE legislature after its November national election, adding that both can benefit from each other.

"We look forward to your elections and looking forward to the parliamentary relations.

Earlier in his remarks, the Ambassador said the courtesy visit was intended to seek closer ties with the House of Representatives considering several engagements and opportunities between the two countries in the past.

This, he said led to the signing of six Agreements between the two in 2016, with four ratified before President Buhari's visit to UAE in April 2019 which led successful outcomes on economic, investment, climate change, humanitarian and other sectors of the two countries.

He informed the Speaker of the six bilateral Agreements between the two countries and the need to domesticate those that have been ratified while soliciting for expedited action of the outstanding ones.

According to the Ambassador, the Agreements have implications on the economy, investments and for people who would want to establish themselves in Nigeria or UAE and access global markets.

Anything to please Buhari, or to Pretend to

The only close tie I would welcome is for Nigeria to be as developed as UAE, after all we have more resources than UAE. Or at least be 1/10 as developed

Misplaced priority

Ladies and Gentle, Atiku is coming.

The Atikulated are overlapping. They are meandering. They are searching for their stolen mandate . The midfield is anchored by Livi Uzoukwu and chief Ozekhome. On the wings they have Buba Galadimma, and Chidoka . Theur point man is the Kenyan Yahoo boy.

Livi beats one. They say Atiku is qualified to file. He beats another. They say it doesnt matter if he is a Cameroonian. Atiku is coming . They are show boating and coming.

Uzoukwu finds Ozekhome. Ozekhome dribbles his man . He dribbles another . The Atikulated are mesmerising. Ozekhome passes to Buba Galadimma. Galadimma is temporarily dispossessed. Galadimma is declared a useless witness. Ozekhome regains possession with some bragadoccio. Then he dies a telegraphic pass to Chidoka

Chidoka , Chodoka, the road marshal. He tries to beat his man . He is too elaborate. Chidoka is dispossessed. Chidoka's testimony has been thrown into an Ojulegba shalanga.

But the Atikulated are unflagging, untiring. They are a goal down

Livi is juggling the ball. He has gone past the center circle.He losses possession again. It doesnt matter whether its Mohammed , Muhammad or Muhammadu. Buhari is qualified to run is the referees decision.

Uzoukwu must do something. Time is running out. He tries a sliding tackle of false affidavit. The refree brandished his yellow card

Ozekhome steps in . And regains possession. He looks up. He finds the Kenyan professional.

Their coach professor is urging then on from the dug out

The Kenyan takes the ball . He does a one two with a certain former INEC staff. The crowd loves his theatrics.

Then he tries to dribble through four defenders. He is checked. Ozekhome retrieves and lays a pass to the Kenyan. He shimmies and locates a whistleblower . But he doesn't connect. The Kenyan regains possesssion.

The atilulated are surging forward. The Kenyan finds livi. Livi finds Ozekhmoe. . Ozekhome lays a through pass into the 18. The Kenyans first touch is Yahoo yahoo standard. He fools his marker.

The Atikulated are pushing and shoving. Their fans are cheering. All their hopes are on their Kenyan striker and his server shots. The man who played in Europe for factsdontlie.ng.comFC breaks loose he beats one , he beats another. It's a goal..no ...it's a goal no... it's a goooooooooooaaaal.

The ball is in the neeeeeeet. It is a wonder gooooooal. It's a last minute goal.

But wait a minute.....wait a minute .

The refree has disallowed the goal. Replays show that the Kenyan took the ball with his hands and threw it into the net. The referee has given the Kenyan a second yellow card for Yahoo yahoo conduct.

And he has blown his whistle. The Atikulated are chasing the refree.
