Politics / Senate Tackles Lai Mohammed Over N250m Project by AprokoGirl: 3:47pm On Nov 03, 2020
The Senate on Tuesday tackled the Minister of information, Lai Mohammed, over a controversial project fully funded by the Ministry of Finance for execution by his Ministry in the 2020 fiscal year.

The project was tagged ERPG 10145116, and was listed as ‘completion of NTA Gashua sub-station ongoing’.

The project had its allocation of N250m fully released to the Ministry.

The Minister led other top officials of his Ministry to the Senate on Tuesday o defend their 2021 budget estimates.

Chairman, Senate Committee on information, Abdullahi Sankara, maintained that the Minister has a lot of explanations to make over the project.

He said that it was 100 per cent release of funds without any work commensurate to the full releases done on sight.

The controversy over the project started when the Minister explained that the project was sponsored by a lawmaker as a constituency project and inserted the same into his Ministry’s 2020 budget.

Senators present at the panel took exception to Mohammed’s explanation.

The lawmakers took turns to query the Minister over the project, insisting that it was not a constituency project.

MY ANCESTORS ARE FAT.
MAMI WATA

For Years some people have always judge me based on my look.
I don’t know why this body image thing is so important to them.
They’re forgetting I’m Human too and I deserve Everything a smaller Body can Have.
I have lost some Jobs because I’m FAT
Lost some relationships becos I’m FAT
Some People in the industry don’t take me serious Because I’m FAT. BUT
(And I also gain a lot of things because I’m fat
Met amazing people who worked with me just because of the way I look.
My first international appearance was because I’m Fat.
I can’t begin to count my blessings because it’s too much
So In life , you lose some and Win some).
Why do you have to see my Body First?
I’m intelligent
Smart
Hard Working
And Beautiful
Some will even Say “ if you love yourself you won’t look like that.
No wonder a lot of women do crazy things to their Body just to be accepted.
Imagine Living in Nigeria (which is already Hard due to Bad Governance)
I will have to struggle with the bad Government and still Fight Body shamers
SAD SAD SAD
Then The Concerned Trolls
Who will tell you FAT is unhealthy and you may die soon. Or they’re worried about your old age.
Stop Stop Stop
My Body is mine! You have no right to Shame it
I shouldn’t be a threat to You.
I will not Shrink Myself To Please You
There is Nothing Wrong With my Body.
Let’s Normalize FAT Bodies.
Stop Body Shaming.
My ancestors are FAT.

Politics / Abdullah Yusuf Diverted Benue Palliatives To Kano - Benue State Government by AprokoGirl: 6:30am On Oct 29, 2020
The Benue State Government on Wednesday disclosed how a portion of the palliatives meant for the state was diverted to Kano by market chief.

In a joint press briefing by the Commissioner for Information, Mrs Ngunen Adingi ; and Special Adviser to the Governor, Col. Paul Hemba (retd.), the government said the Chairman of Wurukum Market in Makurdi, who hails from Kano State, Abdullah Yusuf, diverted the goods to Kano.

Recall that the police in Kano State had, few weeks ago during the lockdown occasioned by COVID-19, recovered 1,958 cartons of noodles suspected to have been diverted from Benue State to Kano.

The Commissioner of Police in Kano, Habu Sani, had said that some people were arrested between July 23 and September 8.

Addressing journalists in Makurdi after the State Executive Council meeting, Adingi and Hemba said the state action committee on COVID-19 had distributed some palliatives to traders at Wurukum market through its chairman who is from Kano.

“The action committee on COVID-19 decided to distribute palliative to market traders who were also affected from not being able to open their shops.

“The market association wasinvited and the palliatives were shared. However, we heard that chairman of the market, Yusuf, collected the palliative on behalf of the traders and instead of distributing to traders, he felt they should sell them and that is how the palliative got to Kano.

“The matter is being investigated and the chairman has been arrested,” the Information commissioner said.

Politics / Niger, Benin, Togo Pay Nigeria N2.04bn Electricity Bill by AprokoGirl: 6:43am On Oct 28, 2020
International customers – Niger, Benin, Togo – who purchase power from Nigeria remitted a total of N2.04bn in the first quarter of this year as their outstanding electricity bill to the Market Operator of the sector in Nigeria.

But special customers, Ajaokuta Steel Co. Ltd and its environs, did not make any payment in respect of the N0.27bn and N0.05bn invoices issued them by the Nigerian Bulk Electricity Trading Plc and the MO respectively, during the period of review.

The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission disclosed this in its report for the first quarter of 2020.

It said a total of N4.05bn ($13.22m) invoices were issued by the MO to international customers including Societe Nigerienne d’electricite or NIGELEC; Societe Beninoise d’Energie Electrique or SBEE; and Compagnie Energie Electrique du Togo or CEET.

The commission stated that during the quarter, NIGELEC made a payment of ₦1.61bn ($5.27m) as part of its outstanding bills for the energy received from NBET and services rendered by the MO.

“Similarly, SBEE paid ₦0.43bn ($1.39m) in respect of services received from MO,” the commission added.

It stated that it was noteworthy that tariff shortfall (represented by the difference between actual end-user tariffs payable by consumers and the cost-reflective rates approved by NERC) had partly contributed to liquidity challenges being experienced in the industry.

It, however, stated that the settlement ratio to the expected Minimum Remittance Thresholds, having adjusted for tariff shortfall, indicated that power distribution companies needed to improve on their performance.

The PUNCH reported on Tuesday that power distributors failed to remit N119.88bn to the sector in the first quarter of the year.

“Whereas Discos were expected to make a market remittance of 46.09 per cent during 2020/Q1, only 32.53 per cent settlement rate was achieved within the timeframe provided for market settlement in the Market Rules,” the commission stated.

It said the Discos’ remittance level, regardless of the prevailing tariff shortfall, was still below the expected MRT and called on the power firms to improve on their performances.

Politics / Benjamin Collins: Army Buries Soldier Tortured To Death By Senior Officers by AprokoGirl: 7:29am On Sep 17, 2020
The Nigerian Army, on Wednesday, interred the remains of Lance Corporal Benjamin Collins, who was tortured to death by three senior officers at the Mogadishu Barracks, Abuja, in 2017.

Collins was buried with full military honours at the Guards Brigade cemetery along Kubwa Expressway by soldiers from the Army Headquarters Garrison Battalion.

The funeral was attended by his mother, Mrs Kate Dioma; uncle, Justice Daniel Isiagor of the Federal High Court; lawyer, Dr Johnson Oyewole; and representatives of the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai.

The national flag was presented to the deceased’s mother by Lt. Col. S. Shuaibu on behalf of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.).

Oyewole, who fought to ensure justice for the deceased, thanked the COAS and the Army Headquarters Garrison Battalion for approving the funeral.

A general court martial had in February sentenced Majors Akeem Oseni and Ogbemudia Osawe, and Second Lieutenant Nuhu Dogary to 10 years’ imprisonment for torturing Collins to death.

The officers were found guilty of manslaughter by the GMC comprised of the President, Brig. Gen. G. Umelo; Brig. Gen. S. Aliyu; Brig. Gen, A. Edet; Brig. N. Mohammed; and Cols. K. Ndamadu, T. Agbor, and I. Tanko.

The convicts were said to have moved Collins from a guardroom at Mogadishu Barracks to a bush near the Ihejirika Quarters along the Abuja-Nyanya Expressway, where he was assaulted while in handcuffs and leg chains.

Collins, who hailed from Rivers State, died after the assault, which took place on February 23, 2017, and his corpse was deposited in Asokoro General Hospital morgue.

After the incident, the officers reported to their superiors that Collins, who was held for over two years for travelling to Lagos to see his sick aunt without official permission, had escaped from custody.
