Olisa Metuh has been relatively quiet since his release from Kuje. Is he still PDP spokesperson?
I hope they didn't do anything to his throat while in prison, because the Metuh I know releases press statements against Buhari every two days or so....
See finishing

Lagos, abuja, ibadan, aba and onitsha are the economic hub of Nigeria because they have the most bank branches in the country.

Recent survey I made shows that these cities host the highest number of bank branches in Nigeria and presence of banks suggest the economic health of a particular area.

The Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola (SAN), has appealed to Nigerians to bear the pains of the new electricity tariff hike, describing it as painful pill they must swallow in the interest of the country.
Fashola, who had a meeting with all stakeholders in power sector in Lagos on Monday, and inspected ongoing works at the Alagbon Local 2x15MVA, 33/11 KV injection substation in Ikoyi, told journalists that the right thing could have been to increase the power before the tariff but unfortunately it was not possible considering the rot the government met on ground.
He assured electricity consumers that they will get value for their money, adding that the electricity distribution companies (DISCOs) have been directed to significantly improve service delivery.
Besides, the 10-year tariff order, will from the next two years begin to come down, he added.
He said: “I understand that people who have been disappointed over a long time will feel the sense of concern that again tariff has gone up. But the truth is that this tariff ought to have been there from day one, and I don’t know why government of yesterday was not courageous enough to tell us this was the tariff.
“This is why you have this MYTO (Multi-Year-Tariff-Order) every two years. So they (past governments) have given the impression that the price of power will increase every two years. What we have done now with the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) is to give a 10-year tariff. In that tariff, about two years from now, it will begin to go down. Whatever price the tariff offers now, is a lot cheaper than diesel, inverter and petrol generation. My relations also asked me, Minister, what is this? So I’m not exempted. It is a painful pill that I must appeal that Nigerians swallow. It is like quinine and malaria. It is painful, not sweet, and I know that, but I chose it because we are not left with many choices. This is the first major decision in power that this administration is taking. Another problem is transmission, and we are fixing it.”
Fashola stated that people are not interested in investing in gas, adding that are just beginning to show interest.
“So even if you have all the power plants, where is the fuel? So it will get better, and I can only appeal for some understanding that we do this in the best interest of our country.
“We have to improve certain deliveries and that is why we have these meetings with the DISCOs. They have to roll out meters, install lines and transformers, among others,” the minister said

The former Minister of Finance Minister, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, is being investigated by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission in connection with corruption cases perpetrated during the last administration, the chairman of the anti-graft agency, Ibrahim Magu, said on Monday.
Magu, who spoke during the budget defence session with the House of Representatives Committee on Financial Crimes, added that a former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Mrs. Diezani Allison-Madueke, is also under the EFCC radar.
Kola Aluko, a close associate of the former Petroleum minister, alleged to have helped in taking a large chunk of the nation’s funds out of the country, is also being investigated by the commission.
Magu, who responded to questions by a member of the committee, Hon. Razak Atunwa , on whether the two ex-ministers and Aluko were included in the EFCC investigative list, said “very soon, we will go into the petroleum industry.”
“Such investigation requires that we have to build capacity, we have to bring in experts to enable us tackle what we are doing properly and the investigation must be conducted properly. We have internal lawyers and external lawyers, we have to pay insurance,” he stated.
Magu had earlier in his speech asked the committee to consider and approve additional N500 million to assist the EFCC operational activities as more sectors of the economy may come under investigation during the year.”
