Senate President Bukola Saraki flagged off the Peoples Democratic Party campaign in Kwara on a note of scare-mongering, alleging a plan by the All Progressives Congress to ‘annex the state to the South West.

The former governor and two term senator said the Kwara people will resist the alleged plan. He did not substantiate the allegation.

Saraki spoke on Tuesday at Bode Saadu, headquarters of Moro Local Government Area, at the official flag off of the campaign of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

“This election is not about me or our governorship candidate, Razak Atunwa. It’s about this state, our tradition. Time will tell about whatever we do today.

“We went back to PDP because we need a government that will care for our people, give jobs to our people,’’ he said.

He appealed to the people of the state, particularly the electorate, to ignore any differences they may have with all the candidates of the party and vote massively for PDP during the general elections.

The Director-General of the PDP Campaign Council in Kwara, Prof. Abubakar Suleiman, urged the party faithful to vote for PDP.

According to him, the coming general elections would be between the indigenes of Kwara and non-indigenes.

“Kwara belongs to the North, we will not allow Kwara to be taken away from us to the West.

“Our leader is Dr Bukola Saraki, our president is Abubakar Atiku, our incoming governor is Atunwa,’’ he said.

Also speaking, Gov. Abdufatah Ahmed said the flag-off campaign would usher in another PDP government in the state and Nigeria.

“You can all see hunger, poverty in the last three years of APC government. We want to bring in PDP to change the narrative. We shall usher in PDP government in Nigeria and Kwara,” he said.

The state chairman of the PDP, Hon. Kola Shittu, said only a PDP government would be beneficial to the people of the state and Nigerians in general.

” A PDP government will provide jobs for our youths. Many people have decamped to PDP because of our leader’s sincerity and people-oriented programmes,” he said.

The PDP governorship candidate, Abdulrazak Atunwa, promised to run a government that would focus on the welfare of the people.

“ Our government shall provide jobs for the people. Women will also be empowered,’’ he said. (NAN)

President Muhammadu Buhari says he will take action on the Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, soon.

Buhari said this during an interview aired on Arise TV which was monitored by our correspondent.

There have been growing demands for the IG, who has reached the retirement age of 60, to step aside.

However, there have been speculations that the President is considering extending his tenure till after the elections.

When asked his next line of action, Buhari burst into laughter, mocking those who had threatened to take action against him if he refused to sack Idris.

He, however, said he was not afraid of the IG and would take a decision soon.

The President said, “I don’t think I am afraid of him. And I don’t think I have asked him to mount roadblocks in place such that I’ll lose revenue (if he goes). But I’ll take action.”

Buhari, however, said removing service chiefs or the IG during a time of insecurity is a sensitive matter.

•Oando audit will go ahead – SEC

Akinpelu Dada, John Ameh, Ifeanyi Onuba and Stanley Opara

The House of Representatives on Tuesday ordered a probe into the suspension of the Director-General of the Securities and Exchange Commission, Mr. Mounir Gwarzo, by the Minister of Finance, Mrs. Kemi Adeosun, over alleged financial abuses.

At its plenary in Abuja, the House directed its Committee on Capital Market and other financial Institutions to conduct the investigation within two weeks, particularly the allegation that the suspension was as a result of the refusal of Gwarzo to halt the forensic audit of Oando Plc being carried out by SEC on the instruction of the minister.

The House, which was presided over by the Speaker, Mr. Yakubu Dogara, passed the resolution after a member from Bayelsa State, Mr. Diri Douye, moved a motion to table the suspension for debate.

The resolution also asked all parties to maintain the status quo pending the outcome of the investigation by the House.

Adeosun had last week suspended Gwarzo over allegations that he approved N104m severance package for himself while still in service, among others.

Two other top management officials of SEC were also suspended. They are the Head of the Media Division, Mr. Abdulsalam Naif, and the Head of Legal Department, Anastasia Braimoh.

But, on Tuesday, Douye’s motion indicated that the suspension of Gwarzo was reportedly fuelled by the controversy surrounding the Oando forensic audit.

“The House observes that there are allegations of interference by the Ministry of Finance in the discharge ofthe responsibilities of SEC, particularly the Oando forensic audit matter, which was largely responsible for the DG’s suspension,” the motion read in part.

However, in their contributions to the debate, some members called for investigation into the financial operations of SEC, including the alleged abuses by Gwarzo.

For instance, the Chairman, House Committee on Works, Mr. Toby Okechukwu, warned that the matter, if not diligently handled, could once again lead to a drop in activities in the capital market.

He stated, “The payment of severance allowance of N104m to the DG should be investigated. Also, the circumstances of the internal dispute between the DG and the minister should be probed. This is one way to avoid another collapse of the capital market.

“I wouldn’t know why the minister will not allow SEC to do its job. I wouldn’t know why infractions should be swept under the carpet. Nothing less than a total inquiry into what happened in SEC is what is required and not only why the DG was suspended.”

Meanwhile, SEC said on Tuesday that it would go ahead with the forensic audit of Oando Plc.

The commission said this in a letter dated December 5, 2017 and addressed to the management of Oando Plc.

The suspension of Gwarzo by Adeosun last week had been linked to the forensic audit into the financial affairs of Oando Plc.

While the Finance ministry had claimed that Gwarzo was suspended for financial impropriety, but there had been claims that he was actually suspended for his refusal to call off the forensic audit of the oil marketing firm.

But the commission in a statement on Tuesday said a letter had been written to the management of Oando informing it that the audit would go on as planned.

It said the decision to conduct the audit was in line with its zero tolerance for infractions in the capital market.

The statement read in part, “The Securities and Exchange Commission has reiterated its decision to conduct a forensic exercise into the activities of Oando Plc. This commitment is contained in a letter dated December 5, 2017 addressed to Oando Plc.

“The commission wishes to assure the general public of its zero tolerance for infractions in the Nigerian capital market.”

In a letter signed by the Acting Director-General, SEC, Dr. Abdul Zubair, and addressed to the Group Chief Executive Officer, Oando Plc, Adewale Tinubu, and dated December 5, 2017, the commission stated, “Further to our letter to you dated November 27, 2017 and another letter to your lawyers dated November 28, 2017, wherein the commission had notified Oando Plc of its decision to go ahead with the forensic audit, the commission in the light of recent development(s) wishes to reiterate the following:

That the commission is aware that suit No: FHC/L/CS/1601/17: OANDO PLC V. SEC & ANOR was struck out on November 23, 2017 by his Lordship Hon. Justice Aikawa of the Lagos Division of the Federal High Court.
That the commission is not aware of the existence of any valid or subsisting order of court restraining the commission from proceeding with the forensic audit.

“While we acknowledge that a Notice of Appeal has been filed to challenge the judgement of the Federal High Court, this notice does not serve as an order of court restraining the commission from conducting the exercise. We wish to restate that our forensic auditors had been directed to commence work since November 27, 2017 and as a result, shall be at your premises on any date from Wednesday, December 6, 2017.”

According to reports, a petition by two of Oando’s shareholders had triggered SEC’s investigation of the oil firm.

The petitioners are Dahiru Mangal and an Italian businessman, Gabriel Volpi.

Both petitioners have filed at least four lawsuits against Oando following a failed business move in which the firm acquired oil infrastructures from ConocoPhillips in Nigeria.

The deal was said to have cost Oando $1.5bn. Volpi reportedly gave Oando the sum of $900m to effect the deal, while Mangal reportedly contributed $250m.

A former Governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi has reacted to the alleged ongoing enslavement of Nigerians and other Africans in Libya.

He said the news was not only sad but also troubling.

Speaking with newsmen at weekend shortly after addressing the conference, “Networking with the Giants,” organised by African Youths Entrepreneurs, in Lagos, Obi called for concerted efforts among Nigerian leaders on the Libyan issue, saying that such tragedy required Nigerians to have a re-think about the trajectory the country was headed to.

His words, “If you listened to my speech, you would see deliberate comparison of Nigeria with other countries of relative development trajectory in the 80’s and how those countries had all overtaken us, because of leadership failures of the past. What we are witnessing in Libya is part of the consequences of that failure. Such occurrences should be utilized by us to advise ourselves as a country that we must wake up and put this country on the right path to avoid implosion in the future.

Speaking further, the former governor called on those saddled with the responsibility of leadership to immediately commence real governance by doing those things that other nations did that took them out of the woods.

Obi called on the youth that dream of going to Europe by crossing the Mediterranean Sea via Libya to resolve to take back Nigeria for Nigerians by resisting being bought with money during elections.

Former Secretary of the Stakeholders Forum, Alhaji Ahmed Shuaib, Gara-Gombe, has advised Rabiu Kwankwaso not to decamp from the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Gara-Gombe, who was the former Adviser of Kwankwaso disclosed this yesterday following the resignation of former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar from APC and his subsequent return to the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Sunday.

He said the former governor might not be able to defeat Atiku in another presidential primary election.

According to him, the senator is an icon for the north and should not follow the footstep of the former VP.

Gara-Gombe also said the fact that Kwankwaso defeated Atiku in the APC primary election in 2015 would mean he would do same thing if he contests with him.

“Since Kwankwaso has age on his side, I’ll advise him to work with President Muhammadu Buhari till 2023 because by the time Buhari serves his second term, Kwankwaso would be the biggest political icon in the North and he can take off from there,” Gara-Gombe.

He said those asking Kwankwaso to leave the APC are not putting his interest at heart but their own.
