Ondo State Governor, Dr Olusegun Mimiko has announced the disengagement of his Special Assistants (SAs) and Senior Special Assistants (SSAs). The Governor relieved his aides of their appointments shortly after 16 new local government caretaker chairmen were sworn into office. Mimiko, at a meeting with the outgoing aides yesterday at the Babafunke Ajasin Auditorium, Alagbaka, Akure thanked all the outgoing aides for their selfless services to his government and the state at large. He solicited their continued support for his administration saying that the disengagement has become necessary in view of the restructuring and repositioning efforts of government for better service delivery. I can only thank you for your services to the government and people of this State who elected us for the delivery of sundry democratic dividends. I appreciate your selflessness and dedication and wish you well in your future endeavours,” Mimiko said. The Governor therefore prayed that the good Lord reward the outgoing aides as they have contributed immensely to his government and the state during their period in office. www.ngrguardiannews.com/2015/08/mimiko-sacks-aides/ |
The Alaafin of Oyo, Oba Lamidi Adeyemi has lauded the men and officers of the State Police Command for their efforts at ridding the State of criminals Speaking against the backdrop of recent arrest of some kidnappers, Oba Adeyemi enjoined his subjects to be watchful and quick to report any untoward activities in their area. He said, “I thank men of the police and other security agencies for a job well done for bursting the crimes in this part of the state which is very surprising to us in this area. The prompt action of the Police contributed to the immense discovery of the kidnappers, I must add that such people should not be allowed to exist in our societies.” “I have to say at this juncture that it is everybody’s duty to be alert over the happenings in their environment and keep the police informed about dangerous activities in their environment,” he said. Meanwhile, the State Police Command has uncovered yet another kidnappers den at Oyagbe area in the ancient Oyo town. One victim was rescued from the hideout while five of the suspected kidnappers are currently been held by the police. The hideout, which was visited by men of the Police command alongside reporters was said to have been a deserted hotel belonging to one Olatunji Kabiru who is presently in police custody. While parading the suspects before reporters, the Commissioner of Police, Muhammad Katsina, said the Kidnappers came from Benin Republic and moved to Kwara State before settling in Oyo for their nefarious activities. An elated Katsina told reporters, “We are happy to announce that a ground breaking discovery was made yet again and this time in Oyo town where some wicked individuals kidnapped a fellow human for ransom. We have so far arrested five people in connection with the crime including the hotelier, and the victim Hussein Sani is now in our custody.” The hotelier, Olatunji Kabiru a former counselor of ward 1, Atiba Local Govt of Oyo State, said the suspects came to his hotel and booked for three rooms for two weeks without giving a clue that they were kidnappers. In a chat with reporters, the victim, Sani, a cattle rearer from Ikoyi Ile in Kajoola Local government area of Oyo state said he was kidnapped at Ogbomoso and was fed rice and Coke for two weeks. He added that the kidnappers had demanded N1million and threatened to kill him and his elder brother if he was unable to pay. Oba Adeyemi, who spoke on the development expressed appreciation to the police and other law enforcement agencies for their prompt action at clamping down on the suspected kidnappers. www.ngrguardiannews.com/2015/08/alaafin-lauds-police-over-arrest-of-kidnappers/ |
The Presidency on Wednesday frowned at a newspaper report which exaggerated the cost of the recent visit of President Muhammadu Buhari to the United States. Mallam Garba Shehu, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity condemned the report in a statement issued in Abuja. He said that contrary to the newspaper’s assertion, the total cost of the trip to the Nigerian taxpayer was at the most minimal. He said the expenditure was in line with the policy of the All Progressives Congress-led administration to cut waste and extravagance. He said that even the President’s son who was on the trip was neither paid allowances nor estacode while the five governors, who were also on the trip financed themselves. Shehu said the Permanent Secretaries who traveled on the delegation did so in accordance with extant rules and none of them exceeded their estacode entitlements. The statement read: “Our attention has been drawn to an editorial published in the Nigerian Pilot of August 2, 2015 and an earlier report in which the total cost of President Muhammadu Buhari’s recent trip to the U.S. was estimated at N2.2 billion. “It is very sad that in this age of free-flowing information and in this era of CHANGE, a media organisation would make itself available as a vehicle to peddle a lie of such low and ignominious quality. “Contrary to the newspaper’s assertions, the total cost of the trip to the Nigerian taxpayer was at the most minimal, in line with the policy of this administration to cut waste and extravagance. “In point of fact, the total amount expended on the trip by the Office of the President amounted to nothing near ten per cent of the speculated figure. “Owing to the free accommodation provided by the host government, all the personal staff who accompanied the President on the trip received reduced allowances. “His son, Yusuf, received neither allowances nor estacode. “The five governors on the trip each paid his own way. Permanent Secretaries who traveled on the delegation did so in accordance with extant rules and none of them exceeded their estacode entitlements. “Apart from the Nigerian Pilot’s mischievous mathematics, it is shortsighted and misleading of the newspaper to have claimed that President Buhari’s trip to the U.S. achieved nothing.’’ Shehu noted that the Nigerian-US relations which had suffered severely over the past few years had now been restored. He declared that the benefits of the symbiotic relationship between both contries would become more and more evident as the Buhari administration continues to tackle the challenges of corruption, insecurity and the economy. He identified some of the immediate benefits of the trip to include the proposed 2.1 billion dollars fund from the World Bank for rebuilding of the North-East battered by Boko Haram and the five billion dollars from US investors in Nigeria’s agriculture sector. Others included the1.5 billion dollars investment in the Nigerian health sector and another five billion dollars investment from the U.S. for the country’s power sector. “Also, as things stand at the moment, the embargo on the sale of weapons sales to Nigeria is in the process of being removed. “The trip to the U.S by President Buhari was definitely very successful and beneficial to Nigeria. “Only those rabidly determined to find faults unnecessarily will cook up falsehood in a futile effort to rake up murk where none exists,’’ the statement concluded. www.ngrguardiannews.com/2015/08/cost-of-president-buharis-trip-to-u-s-grossly-exaggerated-presidency/ |

‘Don’t shield our brother’s killer’ THE bereaved family of an auto-mechanic, Sunday Oladokun, who was allegedly crushed to death in a fatal accident at the Olu-foam, along Ilesha-Owo Expressway, have tasked Ondo State Police Command for justice. Oladokun’s relatives made the plea while reacting to the death of the breadwinner and father of four, after the fateful incident last Saturday, accusing security agents of an attempt to pervert justice. According to reports gathered by The Guardian, the 40-year-old Oladokun closed from work at about 7:30pm and headed home from his office around Agbogbo Junction on the Ilesha-Benin Expressway axis, which is a few kilometres drive away from his Olu-foam residence. He, however, had no inkling that death was lurking around the corner as he drove home in his blue old model car, which he bought less than two months ago on installmental payment and was yet to complete the payment till his demise. An eyewitness, who identified himself as Ayomide Akingbade, said he and another friend had barely flagged down Oladokun for the usual free ride home, but before the batting of an eyelid, a diesel tanker driver made a reckless overtaking and crushed him in a head-on collision. Another eyewitness, Tobi Dara, a colleague of Oladokun, said it took spirited efforts from the people at the scene to extricate the remains of the deceased from the wreck of his newly bought Volkswagen Passat. Speaking for the relatives, his sibling, Seun Oladokun and another friend, Tajudeen Lawal, accused the police and Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) of complicity and trying to pervert justice in favour of the telecommunications firm, which owns the diesel tanker. According to them, the police were already trying to destroy the exhibits they would use to prosecute their case in the court of law. The bereaved family and relatives insisted that justice will possibly help alleviate the sufferings of the widow and four kids of the late auto- mechanic popularly known as “Sunday Rewire.” The children aged between two and 11 years. But the State Police Commissioner, Isaac Eke, remarked that it was too early to conclude who was at fault since it was a case of a fatal accident. He assured them that all those found culpable in the incident would be brought to book and punished after the appropriate department of the Command must have finished its investigation. The fatal accident occurred less than 48 hours after the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) protested nationwide against the incessant deaths of people on the highway by truck and trailer drivers, urging the government at all levels to restrict their movement from 7:00am to 6:00 pm daily.www.ngrguardiannews.com/2015/08/dont-shield-our-brothers-killer/ |
CITING dwindling revenue from oil, the Accountant General of the Federation, Alhaji Ahmed Idris yesterday tasked public office holders over efficient and judicious management of government funds. The AGF gave the charge yesterday while hosting members of Association of National Accountants of Nigeria (ANAN) in his office. He stressed that at challenging moments in the nation’s history when government’s resources have grown so lean due to certain circumstances, it was only imperative for public office holders to shun corruption and ensure that funds allocated to projects were prudently managed. Commending his guests and colleagues for their visit, Alhaji Ahmed also charged ANAN and other accounting professional bodies in the country to champion the anti-graft crusade by ensuring they adhere to ethics and standards in the discharge of their duties. Reacting to the call for synergy between the office of AGF and the professional body, Ahmed assured that his office would be neutral in dealing with professional bodies. According to him, all would be given opportunity to collaborate in ensuring that those in places of authority properly manage the nation’s lean revenue. Earlier, the delegation led by its President, Chief Anthony Chukwuemeka Nzom, had pledged its support and willingness to collaborate with the AGF, who according to members was the first ANAN member to be appointed AGF. Noting that the institution has graduated from the conventional duties to include fraud management and forensic accounting, the President urged the AGF to avail professional staff the opportunity to build their capacity in ANAN affiliated institutions. Nzom, who took time to chronicle other achievements of ANAN and declared its assets also pledged to raise the institution to international standard. www.ngrguardiannews.com/2015/08/agf-tasks-office-holders-on-prudent-use-of-funds/ |
