Business › Re: MTN Shares Rise 8.9 Per Cent On Planned CBN Meeting Over $8.1b Claim by bigtt76(f): 8:51am On Sep 21, 2018 |
I thought MTN Nigeria and the indicted banks claimed they did not breach any law? Why are they negotiating now?  akelicious: MTN shares rose by 8.9 per cent on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange, South Africa, yesterday, following Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN)’s resolve to meet with the telecommunications firm and the indicted banks over the $8.1 billion repatriation fund saga.
The rise in shares is MTN’s biggest in the last six months, but the stock is still down 28 per cent since the $8.1 billion claim was made on August 29, wiping out almost $5 billion of market value.
The CBN said yesterday that it had agreed to negotiations proposed by MTN Nigeria and the four banks involved in the $8.13 billion transfers, which certificate of capital importations were adjudged fraudulent. It also said the engagement was sequel to the provision of additional information, which is currently being reviewed with a view to arriving at an equitable resolution. Director of Corporate Communications Department, CBN, Isaac Okorafor, who disclosed this, said the apex bank acknowledged the public interest over the sanctions recently imposed on four deposit money banks (DMBs), but wished to restate that it would continue to welcome foreign investments and investors. According to Bloomberg, the announcement suggests there may be a way for Johannesburg-based MTN to reach a deal with Nigeria, just as it did two years ago when it negotiated a $5.2 billion fine to about $1 billion and a commitment to list its local business in Lagos. That penalty was related to subscribers that were not properly registered in the country. A London-based analyst at Signal Risk, Ronak Gopaldas, who was quoted by Bloomberg, said: “This is a welcome development and cements our initial view that the sanction was unsustainable. “Considerable damage has already been done in terms of brand damage to Nigeria Inc. and value erosion for MTN. However, a more conciliatory tone will see some of these losses being reversed. It will help calm investors.” The Apex bank’s statement did not refer to $2 billion of taxes MTN is also accused of owing, a claim that comes from the Attorney General’s office. Reacting to the development, President, Association of Telecommunications Companies of Nigeria (ATCON), Olusola Teniola, said: “While this is a step in the right direction, continued dialogue to reach an amicable resolution is a minimum standard expected by the investment community.” Already, MTN has gone to the Federal High Court to seek redress on the matter. MTN Group CEO, Rob Shuter, at the just concluded International Telecommunications Union (ITU) Telecoms World in Durban, South Africa, described as a disagreement between the telecommunications firm and the Nigerian authority with a promise to resolve the matter amicably.

Celebrities › Re: "Did Buhari Children Serve??" - Reno Omokri Reacts To Davido Flouting NYSC Rules by bigtt76(f): 9:14pm On Sep 20, 2018 |
I wonder why this guy is trying to be an a55. If the president's children did not serve, is that now a yardstick for others to follow? Why don't we all start stealing because they said Abacha stole billions naaa  Does he know that the children of the President by virtue of their father's position automatically become a security risk? What if they go to service now and because of the attendant risks were deployed to serve elsewhere, won't people complain? As far as I know, even Davido despite not being the son of the president may have been granted special relief from being in the camp because he too poses a risk to himself and other corp members. Did NYSC go to press to complain of his absence? No! vickayo: As Popular comedian, Wale Gates points out how Nigerian singer, Davido is flouting the NYSC rules by wearing PDP uniforms, Reno Omokri has turned down the opinon.
He wrote:
"To those accusing @davidoofficial of flouting NYSC rules, I ask you: Have you seen any of President @muhammadubuhari children in NYSC uniform? Zahra Buhari graduated. Did she serve? Yusuf the power bike rider, did he serve? Hypocrisy will kill Nigeria before corruption #RenosDarts "

Crime › Re: 12 Chinese Nationals Arrested In Kenya For Engaging In Prostitution by bigtt76(f): 12:42pm On Sep 20, 2018 |
Hmmmm ....this ones too de do olosho work Griezwoman: Kenya Immigration Department on Wednesday, arrested 12 Chinese nationals for allegedly engaging in prostitution in Nairobi.
Following an intelligence tip-off, a team of crime-busters comprising DCI and immigration officials raided two houses in South C Estate, Nairobi, in a clean up swoop targeting wanted fugitives, human traffickers and other immigration violators.
The two residential houses are suspected to have been operating as brothels.
The arrested foreigners, 8 girls and 4 men were taken to Jomo Kenyatta Airport for processing and subsequent deportation.
Police records shows that one of the men arrested was watch-listed in May 2017 on suspicion of being involved in prostitution and illegal gambling in Kenya. He was later deported and subsequently banned from ever entering the country again but returned using a different passport.
Their arrest comes months after Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’s declared war on illegal immigrants and foreigners doing jobs that should be done by Kenyans.
Two weeks ago, Kenyan police raided the African headquarters of the China Global Television Network in Nairobi and briefly detaining several journalists.
The Chinese embassy in Nairobi has complained over police swoops that have seen its nationals with legal documents hauled into police stations for verification.

73 year old Professor Gana, who made this known while answering questions from journalists in Minna, Niger State yesterday, said the youth of the country had given him their mandate and had been supporting him too.Professor Gana who is contesting for the Presidency under the platform of Social Democratic Party, SDP said: “I am a surrogate of the youths, the youths asked me to aspire and they have pledged to support me and they have started supporting me.”
He said for now, the country needed the combination of elders and youths in governance for survival and progress of the country.“You cannot read experience in the books but you can acquire it from the elders and this is why we need to blend the youths and the elderly ones to move the country forward because this will amount to a wise combination,” he remarked.He called on the Independent Electoral Commission, INEC, to really live true to its name by being independent and transparent in the conduct of the 2019 general elections.

Are they not adults? Haba! Why still use secondary school mentality to govern Universities?  johnjay4u2u: The Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) has cautioned six students for harbouring members of the opposite sex beyond 10 pm on September 7 and 8 respectively. According to a notice posted on the Unity Hall notice board on Saturday, September 15, four female students; Grace Aba Serwaa Scheck (B.SC. Business Administration), Nancy Afuakwa (B.Sc. Chemistry), Stabella Fosuaa (B.A. Social Work) and Rita Nyanyo (B.A. Publishing Students) all residents of Room 143 were found to be accommodating a male student past 10pm on September 7 in their room which is against the Hall's rules and regulations. Similarly, two male students (Papa Kojo Essuman Addison of room 243 and Israel Atumove Wompiah of room 300) were found in female rooms at dawn on September 8.
The notice signed by the Hall Master Dr Emmanuel Gikunoo, said the students have been made to sign an undertaking to be of good behaviour throughout their stay in Unity Hall after apologising to the management of Unity Hall for their actions. 'Taking into account the show of remorse and apology to Unity Hall Management from these students and their parents, they have been cautioned and made to sign an UNDERTAKING to be of good behaviour throughout their stay in the Unity Hall", the notice said. The notice warned other students that the maximum sanctions would be applied to other offenders in the future. "This caution goes to all other residents of the Hall. Any similar act will lead to maximum sanctions being applied".
