APC Asks FG To Account For $800m Fund by praxisnetworks: 3:43am On Feb 25, 2015 |
The Presidential Campaign Organisation of the All Progressives Congress has challenged the Federal Government and the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency to account for the $800 million and N50 billion of the Cabotage Vessel Finance Fund. The APC campaign said NIMASA had control of the funds until recently when the “fund” became unaccounted for. This was contained in a statement signed by the campaign’s Director of Media and Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu in Abuja, on Tuesday. He explained that the “fund” was money derived as two per cent surcharge for all contracts under the Cabotage regime which came into force in 2004 by the virtue of the Coastal and Inland Shipping Act (Cabotage) 2003. Shehu said the Cabotage Act, which was closely modelled after the United States of America’s Jones Act 1938, was to help develop the capacity and participation of indigenous ship owners in coastal inland trade which was largely dominated by foreigners. He, however, said that till date the objective is yet to be achieved as seen in the depleted Indigenous Ship Owners Registry, the mass unemployed Nigerian Seafarers, and the prevalence of foreign interests in the Nigerian coastal waters. The statement partly read “Instead, the Cabotage regime breeds corruption, ranging from request of inducement and gratification from foreign ship owners through their agents for waivers processing by NIMASA and approval of the Federal Ministry of Transport by some top workers of the agency to the disappearance of the CVFF Fund meant to be accessed by the Nigerian ship owners. “The website of the Nigerian Ship Owners Association shows that 90 per cent of its 78 registered ship owners are on the brink of extinction as they are submerged in debts without the necessary CVFF to access.” Shehu, also said that Nigerians deserve to know what happened to the money accumulated under the CVFF Fund amounting to some $800m and N50 billion respectively that the agency should make public the list containing names of beneficiaries and amounts from the “fund” if any. http://www.punchng.com/politics/apc-asks-fg-to-account-for-800m-fund/ 8 Likes 1 Share |

...Nigeria returned to democratic governance in 1999 and since then, the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) has been in power at the center. Nigeria has had its ups and downs since that time but what is the experience of Nigerian citizens? The Web Pollster is starting another opinion poll to gauge the mood of #nigerians regarding how they’ve fared in the past 6 years? Are you better off now than you were 6 years ago before President #jonathan was sworn in as president after the death of President Umaru Yaradua? If the economy of a country is getting better, the people feel it before they see official published statistics. Are Nigerians living a higher quality of life now than before because they have access to better, good paying jobs, better healthcare, better education and infrastructure, power or electricity that has removed the need to invest in diesel generators? What is your perception of corruption in the country? Do you feel opportunity is being expanded for all or most of the opportunities in the land is limited to a privilege few who are in government?

I guess APC has run out of ideas. I so much love this election postponement. APC keep them lies coming Fayose is there to burst them. In other news. How you living Mr Ayo Fayose for exposing APC lies and propaganda? Ans: In Mansion and Benzes giving headache to APC and it feels stupendous. How you feeling Mr Femi Fani Kayode for dumping APC? Ans: Am feeling good like never before. APC is dead and is on the news. How do you feel going back to PDP Mr Barcanista? I feel at home. Is been a long time coming and am glad am finally home. Just like the biblical prodigal son i've realised my mistakes and gone back to PDP. In Jonathan we have seen real and positive change. Vote Wisely GEJ 2019 11 Likes 1 Share |
