PoliticsRe: Delta State To Arrest anti-deve’ Law Violators by EMMY76: 11:28pm On Sep 01, 2020
HenryUbus12345:
Delta Government says it will enforce strict implementation of the ‘anti-deve’ law which proscribed illegal and forceful entry into development sites across the state.

The State Commissioner for Information, Mr Charles Aniagwu, stated this on Monday at a press conference in Asaba, the state capital.

He warned violators of the State Public and Private Properties Protection Law signed into law by Governor Ifeanyi Okowa in 2018.

The commissioner was reacting to concerns that despite the enactment of the law, some community leaders and youths were still flouting the law by harassing business owners and property developers in the state.

Aniagwu disclosed that Governor Okowa had received from alarming reports from both public and private developers on the development.

He called on the people to report such harassments to law enforcement agencies who are empowered by law to prosecute the offenders.

"You will recall that two years ago, Governor Ifeanyi Okowa assented to a piece of legislation outlawing what we used to call "deve"

"We are making it very clear that, that law is still in force because we are getting reports that some persons are still harassing some individuals and that if anybody harasses you because you want to develop your plot of land, or your property, you are at liberty to notify the law enforcement agencies to prosecute such persons.

"You don’t say because that law has been signed and take the law into your hands to fight anybody who wants to harass you. Take advantage of that law to invite the law enforcement agencies whose duty it is to prosecute such persons.

"We are also seizing this opportunity to warn those who think that they can harass big investors, being it local or foreign that we will not hesitate to take advantage of that law to prosecute anybody found wanting in this regard.

"This is because we have observed before coming up with that law, that the "deve" mentality impinges on development in a number of areas and that those who wanted to develop their plots of land or bring some other investments, were disturbed by this practice and that’s why we outlawed it so that we can speed up the process of development of our state.

"We are convinced that if the state develops as fast as we desire it to, that these individuals who think that deve is the only true way they can survive, will even get employment gainfully and have more legitimate job to do than attacking people and asking for deve levy.

"The state Government frowns at it and will take the advantage of the law to prosecute whoever is reported or arrested because we believe that such persons is an enemy of the state. We do not want people who have suffered and laboured to bring such development to our state to be disturbed on account of that." he said.

He said the state government in partnership with the police and other security agencies has scaled up security checks on major highways to check the incidences of kidnapping, cultism, and other violent crimes and appealed to the people to cooperate with them to protect lives and property.

The Commissioner also announced further easing of lockdown on worship centres in the state, saying they can now hold more than one service but with strict adherence to COVID-19 prevention protocols.

"Before now Churches are only allowed to hold only one service efore now worship centres are not allowed to hold more than one serves because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

"But now we have are going to hold more than one service but they must still adhere strictly to the social distancing rule, wearing of face masks, washing of hands or use of hand sanitisers before worshippers are allowed into the premises of such worship centres.

"We believe that our people have been sufficiently sensitised to understand that this protocol need to be observed but we have also observed that there are some individuals who believe in that dream world that COVID-19 is a scam.

"To such persons we will still take steps to sensitise them taking advantage of the traditional institution and of course the religious bodies to also help us pass the message across while also preaching the message of salvation.

Aniagwu appealed to those whose business have been impacted by the lockdown to be patient with government as it will be easier to revive the economy than to revive the dead.

"We are still taking steps in collaboration with the Presidential Task Force to review some of the lockdown decisions we took earlier and we appeal to our brothers who are into businesses like entertainment to bear with us. Little by little the curve is being flattened and once we get out of this we will begin to live our normal lives." he stated.
Nonsense how can you sign a bill into law since 2018 without setting up mechnicism for it's implementation and enforcement? undecided
PoliticsRe: Senators Vow To Reject Water Resources Bill. by EMMY76: 11:14pm On Sep 01, 2020
2020Experience:
By Sanni Onogu, Abuja
Senators Tuesday vowed to reject a proposed Water Resources Bill when it is presented to the Senate.

The Bill which has already scaled first reading in the House of Representatives has continued to generate controversy.

There are however indications that the Bill would likely be presented to the Senate on resumption from their current break on September 15.



Senate Minority Leader, Enyinnaya Abaribe, told reporters in Abuja that even though the Bill is yet to surface on the floor of the Senate, it would not be allowed to see the light of day when it is eventually presented.

“We have not seen it in the Senate. When it comes we will reject as before,” Abaribe said in a terse text message in reply to an enquiry on the Bill by a reporter in Abuja.

On her part, Senator Biodun Olujimi, said Senators would not support any Bill that may be injurious to Nigerians.

Olujimi told reporters during an interview in Abuja that Senators would stand up against any legislation capable of disrupting the fragile peace in the country.

She said: “The truth is that I am not aware of that Bill at all. However, anything that will injure our people, some of us will never be part of it.

“We will speak up against it when the time comes because nobody would be allowed to injure our people.

“We will not allow any legislation to ruin the fragile peace that we have in this country.


“We will not allow our fragile peace to be destroyed as a result of any political, personal or ethno-religious reasons.

“We won’t allow it because we are one entity and we must fight for the people of Nigeria.

“The Bill which is currently being treated at the House of Representatives would require the concurrence of the Senate and when the time comes, we won’t let it just fly like that.

Trailblazer1:
French magazine Charlie Hebdo reprints Mohammed caricatures 5 years after attack by Islamic extremists
The caricatures republished this week were first printed in 2006 by the Danish newspaper Jyllands Posten, setting off sometimes violent protests
The attack on the Paris offices of Charlie Hebdo in 2015 led to the deaths of 12 people. A fresh trial into the massacre is set to begin on Wednesday.

The French satirical magazine whose Paris offices were attacked by Islamic extremists in 2015 is reprinting caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed cited by the gunmen who opened fire on its editorial staff. The January 2015 attacks against Charlie Hebdo and, two days later, a kosher supermarket, touched off a wave of killings claimed by Islamic State across Europe. Seventeen people died – 12 of them at the editorial offices – along with all three attackers. Thirteen men and a woman accused of providing the attackers with weapons and logistics go on trial on terrorism charges on Wednesday. In an editorial this week accompanying the caricatures, the paper said the drawings “belong to history, and history cannot be rewritten nor erased”. As the attackers, brothers Cherif and Said Kouachi, walked away from the carnage, they cried out “We have avenged the Prophet.” Claiming the attacks in the name of al-Qaeda, they then killed a wounded policeman point-blank and drove away.

SportsRe: Calenda Claims Barcelona Wanted Osimhen To Replace Suarez by EMMY76: 8:31pm On Sep 01, 2020
[quote author=robosky02 post=93450542]Calenda claims Barcelona wanted Osimhen to replace Suarez

The Nigerian striker was courted by some of Europe’s big guns before settling for the Partenopei, according to his management
Roberto Calenda, a member of Victor Osimhen’s management team, has claimed prior to the Nigerian signing for Napoli, Barcelona were interested in bringing him in place of unsettled striker Luis Suarez.

The 21-year old sealed a five-year deal believed to be worth up to €80 million from Lille and will be expected to deliver, having netted 18 competitive strikes last term in France.

Osimhen made an impression by scoring a hat-trick and providing an assist in an 11-0 friendly win over Italian fourth division side L’Aquila during a training camp at Castel di Sangro last Friday.

Suarez’s future at Camp Nou is currently up in the air as he is reportedly not keen to continue at the club and new Blaugrana boss Ronald Koeman does not want him.

"I usually never talk about these things, out of respect for professionalism and the club. It is right that Napoli say things as they went, they are the main players,” Calenda told Radio Marte.

“I can say that it was a well-conducted negotiation by the parties, we started from a distance. The signing took place with constant communication and we were good at keeping track of it.

“[It was a] difficult operation, Tottenham and Liverpool wanted Osimhen until the end, even Barcelona initially wanted him instead of Suarez. Napoli, however, did everything. They wanted him and took him."

However, Goal understands Barcelona were only tracking the progress of Osimhen, and he was never a real target to make a bid.

From Liverpool, Goal understands Jurgen Klopp was not interested in Osimhen because of the high price of the Nigerian. Earlier this year, the Reds were looking to strengthen their options from the bench when the likes of Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah were not available. Liverpool eventually brought in Takumi Minamino in January.

Napoli boss Gennaro Gattuso had previously stated that Osimhen needs time to gel with his team as he is not a Maradona kind of signing and these same thoughts were reflected by Calenda.

"The boy [Osimhen] is an exemplary professional, very serious and very serene. This is important when you get to teams where there have been players who have made football history,” he continued.

“The coach's [Gattuso] words are right: you have to wait and give him time because he comes from far away, he must adapt to our championship and our customs. But without a shadow of a doubt he has great talent and I am sure he will prove it because he has some important characteristics."

https://www.goal.com/en/news/calenda-claims-barcelona-wanted-osimhen-to-replace-suarez/1dxcvpia4k9xd1o2xg6rbmlr2h[/quote


Osimhen is no doubt a talented footballer this is someone who currently holds the world record in the under 17 category as the highest goal scorer.

abduljabbar4:
Amaechi is a politician, and politicians can say and do anything to boost their popularity. (Look at how Buhari, Atiku, and Jonathan used different attires during their campaign). Do you have any proof that the government is using propaganda to brainwash them? Governments come and go, but the Ikwerres and others have been denying you people since the 1960s. The only person trying to bring propaganda is you. Thousands of threads have been created on nairaland to debate on this issue and you people lost in almost all of them.

Again, you are ranting like a typical brain-dead ipobian bastard. Our people don't travel. We stay here and create jobs. Of all the "achievements" you criminals have made, mention one individual that is employing half as much people as Dangote (who never bothered to travel). Just go to any embassy and see things for yourself. Northerners don't migrate to other places. We only travel, do what took us there and come back unlike your criminal brothers that go abroad for a mastards degree that could last for a life time. I have never seen a situation whereby a northerner is kicked out of a country for violating his Visa. Can you say the same about your people?

Also, the crimes you people commit dwarfs whatever miniscule achievements you people make in foreign lands. Ghana, South Africa, Zambia, Tanzania, UAE, USA, UK, Canada, France, India, Pakistan, etc all have EXCLUSIVELY NEGATIVE things to say about you. Your people have been CURSED with a penchant for prostitution, Fraud and Drug pushing.

Apart from Abdul Mutallab, no other northerner has ever been jailed for terrorism so I wonder what you mean by saying we are exporting terrorism. Mention any country in the world and I will show you a yeestern developer languishing in its jail. The average ipob man dies in prison. It is a fact.

PoliticsRe: Senate To Bar FIRS, Customs, NBC, 57 Others From Getting Federal Allocations by EMMY76: 8:10pm On Aug 30, 2020
naijapage:
Barring any last-minute changes, the Senate is set to advise the Federal Ministry of Finance, Budget and National Planning to exclude 60 federal agencies from getting allocation from the national budget, starting from next year.

The agencies include Federal Inland Revenue Service, Nigeria Customs Service, Security and Exchange Commission, National Broadcasting Commission and Oil and Gas Free Trade Zone Commission.

The move, Sunday PUNCH gathered, was due to the conviction that the agencies generate enough revenue to fund their overheads and payment of salaries, and would therefore not need to be funded from the national budget.

Investigations by one of our correspondents on Friday indicated that the Joint Committee on Finance and National Planning had concluded plans to include the proposal in its report which would be submitted to the Senate at plenary on resumption on September 15.

The joint panel on Tuesday concluded a five-day interactive session with the various Federal Government revenue generating agencies based on the 2021-2023 Medium Term Expenditure and Fiscal Strategy Paper.

The panel, in most of its engagements with the heads of the agencies, expressed disappointment with their poor revenue profile, huge wage bill and poor remittances to the Consolidated Revenue Fund account.

The Chairman of the joint committee, Senator Solomon Adeola, told the heads of the agencies after the session that many of them had no business receiving allocation from the federation account.

He said the Senate would work out an arrangement to amend the Fiscal Responsibility Act that would stop the agencies from spending the money they generate as they pleased.

He said some of the agencies like the Oil and Gas Free Trade Zone Commission, had willingly pulled out of being funded from the federal budget, meaning they would no longer collect allocation for salaries and overhead from the federation account.

A member of the joint committee told our correspondent on condition of anonymity on Friday that the panel had identified 60 agencies that would henceforth be funding the national budget and be responsible for their overheads and salaries of their workers.

He said the affected revenue generating agencies cut across the agriculture, aviation, communications, education, energy, environment, health, maritime, media and science and technology sectors of the economy.

He said, “We want to put an end to indolence and wastage of revenue. Many of the agencies have more than enough to remain on their own but they are still being funded from the national budget. We are doing this in the interest of Nigerians because we are tired of passing budgets that are not implementable due to deficit.”

Adeola, in his reaction, did not confirm the exact number of agencies that would exit the national budget but said some had willingly agreed to pull out of being funded from the budget and that their list had been compiled.

He said apart from those who would be placed on zero allocation, some would henceforth bear their overheads and cost of executing capital projects.

He stated, “We have invited all revenue generating agencies and ministries that are directly affected to ask questions bothering on the document before us and to deliberate on how we can improve the revenue of the Federal Government.

“From what we have seen and witnessed, it goes to show that we have a lot of work to do in the areas of ensuring that all government revenues get to the coffers of the government. Frivolous expenditure being used to take away the revenue will be blocked.

“This is just the beginning of good things to come. Once this has commenced, we would have a lot of savings and seriousness on the part of the government agencies.”

He said they were trying to put together the cost of collection to be given to all the revenue generating agencies so the government could have enough revenue at its disposal to fund the budget.

“With the repositioning that we have started, we will ensure that all revenue generating agencies play their critical roles in supporting government’s programmes and policies,” he added.

The Director-General, Bureau of Public Enterprises, Alex Okoh, had told the Senate Committee on Privatisation in October 2019 that 600 Federal Government-owned enterprises gulped not less than $3bn yearly with little or no returns from them into the federation account.

During the just concluded Senate session on MTEF/FSP, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, the FIRS and Nigerian Customs Service projected to generate N43.5tn as revenue for the country between 2021 and 2023.

A breakdown of the N43.5tn projected revenue shows that FIRS planned to generate N19.1tn; NNPC, N19.5tn; and NCS, N4.927tn in the next three years.

Meanwhile, a member of the committee, Senator Abdulfatai Buhari, said the Senate would make the affected agencies see reasons why they should no longer be funded from the budget even as he expressed confidence that they would not protest against the move.

Buhari, who is also the Chairman, Senate Committee on Land Transport, said the action was being taken in the best interest of the country and that it was not a witch-hunt.

He added, “We know that when a change is coming, there would be some resistance but the most important thing is that the country is greater than anybody. What we are saying is that if we have a means to finance our budget we will go for it. We will let them see reasons why they should be removed from the budget.

“We know that the country is allocating billions of naira every year to buoyant agencies that don’t need the money. They are agencies that can conveniently finance themselves. There are lots of revelations during the five days that we held our interactions with the agencies.

“Many of them are generating as much as N20bn every year, remitting what they like, and they are still collecting money from the federation account to pay salaries and to defray their overhead cost. Apart from removing them from the budget, we will also make sure that they remit the appropriate revenue to the federation account.”

He said apart from the NCS and the FIRS that declare huge revenues, many other revenue generating agencies only remitted pittance from their collection.

He added, “As a serving senator, I was shocked when I saw the huge sums of money that many of these agencies are making, how much they are spending on frivolous expenditure and what they remit to the national purse. It is highly ridiculous.’’

MAN, NACCIMA, economists disagree, say proposal dangerous

Responding to the plan, the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria described the proposal as a dangerous move that would not only reduce the already low Foreign Direct Investments into the country but also make regulatory agencies to overburden businesses for funds.

MAN’s Acting Director-General, Ambrose Oruche, told one of our correspondents on Friday, “It is a dangerous move. The business community will suffer for it. The government should not try it because the businesses pay taxes for running the government. If this proposal is implemented, I don’t see investors staying in this economy.’’

While noting that such would impair the gains of the Ease of Doing Business policy, he added, “It then means that the agencies will be all out to make money from the business community since they are the ones sourcing for their revenue. Businesses will shut down and unemployment will rise.”

The Nigerian Association of Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture also described the plan as a wrong move, saying the Senate should rather engage the agencies in useful dialogue to achieve the desired goal.

The Director-General NACCIMA, Ambassador Ayo Olukanni, said, “The Senate should not go this way. Such move may in fact sound their death knell. It should rather look for more innovative ways to encourage these agencies to make them more productive and generate revenue.

“If properly funded, they (the agencies) can be challenged to generate revenue, using various innovative business models in collaboration with the private sector with effective supervision.”

Also, a Professor of Economics at the Olabisi Onabanjo University, Sheriffdeen Tella, said he did not agree with the Senate proposal because it would make agencies independent of the federation account and their revenue and expenditure would be difficult to monitor.

He said, “All the money that is generated ought to go into the federation account. In that case, there is supposed to be budgetary allocations for all the agencies. They must have their own budget and they must not spend beyond the money they budgeted for.

“You cannot ask them not to be part of the budgetary system. This is so that we can track how much goes in and goes out. If you say they should spend as they generate, it means they are going to be independent of the federation account which is not good enough.”

According to an economist, Dr Ayo Teriba, if all revenues go into the government’s purse before the money is shared, it curtails excesses and leakages, noting that allowing agencies to spend their revenue and only remit a certain portion would be an aberration. ‘‘This is one of the reasons why Nigeria is poor,” he added.

Teriba, who is the Chief Executive Officer, Economic Associates, stated, “The country has moved towards a Treasury Single Account. The question to ask is; are the federal agencies the Senate is referring to part of the TSA or not? They are.

“Two, what is beneficial – to have a central budgeting system for all the agencies or to take some of them out to run individual budgeting system? It undermines accountability and I don’t know any other country in the world where any revenue generating agency has the autonomy to spend the revenue it collects.’’

LCCI, economist back move

However, the Director-General, Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Dr Muda Yusuf, backed the plan, but cautioned that there should be proper monitoring to ensure accountability and prevent reckless spending.

He added, “There has to be a proper assessment to know the ones that have the capacity to generate revenue and fund themselves. So, if they have enough capacity to generate funds, why not, and the cost they incur must be realistic because some of them have bloated cost of operations.

“Some of them are really robust in terms of the revenue they generate, but we must carry out proper monitoring of what they generate.”

Also, a Professor of Economics at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State, Abayomi Adebayo, welcomed the development, saying it was long overdue.

“I think we are thinking right. Under the pretence that the income generated in those agencies are low, they keep using the revenues to enrich themselves as we have seen in many investigations carried out, whereby you see some of their directors strikingly rich while the government is getting poorer.

He said, “For instance, look at Customs, how can they be collecting subventions from the government considering how much they generate?”

Addressing the concern in some quarters that the affected agencies might be pressurised to generate funds by way of taxing the people more, Adebayo said, “It is nothing to worry about. There are principles that will govern any agency to regulate taxation. But I think anybody who can’t run such agencies should please resign to give room for people who can run them profitably.”

That means they will now have no other choice but to appoint technocrats to head those agencies no more dumb nigerian politicians.

As I earlier told you igbo catholics are followers of the teachings of Jesus Christ he never commanded any of his followers to kill anyone for his sake unlike ur muhammad that instructed u to not only kill blasphemers but also to kill and enslave those that refused to convert to islam this is just the big difference between muslims and christains.
Can you quote anywhere in the holy Bible where Jesus clearly commanded his followers to kill for him?

It was stated in the Bible Leviticus 24:16 that anyone who blasphem against the name of God will be put to death.

Now answer me:
Will an Igbo catholic be killed in the SE for blaspheming against God?
That's the old testament u are quoting there born again christains follow Jesus they no longer practice such barbaric laws anymore even Jews that still follow the original moses religion of Judaism don't kill blasphemers they prefer God himself to carry out all the killings.
There is absolutely no way an igbo catholic can be killed simply because there is no teachings from jesus in the bible that backs and authorize such barbaric killings.

Not possible the bible didn't give such commands but the Quran is very clear on what to do with anyone who blasphem the name of muhammad.

Muslims claimed that Jesus was a muslim but yet they don't practice his teachings where he said if anyone haven't sinned before he should be the first person to stone and kill sinners.

The core North is lost forever.

A combination of Islam and core North is too toxic to contain and it will always breed disaster.

The major reason is that they see Islam as a total way of life and they are too rigid to change and stuck with the Shariah law that already outlived its importance.

Some might say it’s lack of education but that’s wrong. The doctrine is too potent such that even intellectuals seems to be at the frontline of this brutality. That was why I said they are lost forever.

At least we Muslims in the south have learnt to differentiate Islam from culture which explained why all this rubbish cannot take hold here.

It’s really sad that the major leaders of the North continue to maintain culture of silence in this show of shame!
So u mean a yoruba muslim in the sw who blasphem the name of muhammad won't be killed?

Wonderful news. With this airbase, we will project our military might over the Atlantic. Some narrow minded people will say the money is better spent in other things, but the truth is, as a soveign nation of over 170 million people, it is paramount to have a strong military so other countries will think twice before starting a war. You see, war does not announce itself, you have to be prepared at all times.

As the most populous Black nation on the planet, Blacks all over the world are looking at us for leadership and guidance. Blacks in the carribean, U.S, Latin America and Erurope believe Nigeria is the real life version of the mythical Wakanda. Chadwick Boseman will be bragging to the angels right now like, those are my people down there in Africa doing great things. RIP Black Panther.
Nigeria's military influence ends here in west african we can never be able to challenge any western nation we are buying all these figher jets from.

I wonder where you get your information from. The oil in those southeastern states cannot even power the states in which they are found. In case you are not aware, almost all southwestern states have oil but the quantity is what matters. Now you want to start your attache by force tactic! The so-called Igbo areas in the Niger-delta have repeatedly rejected you for decades cheesy awon land grabbers


Tell us what you are contributing and stop chest beating! You people are the ambassadors of crime in Nigeria and even in foreign lands, Nigerians are seen as fraudsters and drug traffickers because of the DNA in the cursed Ipobian blood. That's why I don't pity them when South Africans crush their fucking skulls.

I challenge you to mention the senators in the southeast that have brought the idea of restructuring at the senate. You people just talk like typical brainless donkeys. It's the same way that you keep telling us to give you biafra as if we have the power to do that! What are your senators meant to do? If you are too weak and useless to tell your representatives to represent you, then the joke is on you.

I agree that the north is being parasitic to the NATURAL resources located in the Niger Delta. I also agree that the north is benefitting from the seaport in Lagos (SW) and the oil in Ondo. But I challenge you to tell me how the north is reliant on the middle belt( a northern region for that matter grin) and the southeast.

In fact, the NorthWest can boast of its agricultural process and FDIs. What can the southeast boast about other than its genetically-acquired crime instincts? What does the Southeast have? Lol
The only igbo speaking ethnic group in the SS that are denying their Igbo heritage due to years of brainswashing from the nigerian state are the ikwerres and it's not even all of them people like rotimi amaechi from same ikwerri have publicly told the world and haters like u that he is a proud Igbo man. So no amount of propaganda and hate can curse and divide the igbo nation that God in his infinite wisdom have blessed with enormous human and natural resources.

More than 90% of individuals that have made name outside nigeria in sports, academics, business, technology etc are all from Igbo race and other tribes from the south and the middle belt. Mention the names from ur cursed barbaric hausa/fulanis race that have brought anything of value outside this country apart from islamic terrorism and barbarism that the whole world knows u people very well for. Currently u wicked northerners holds the record for the number one and number two deadliest terrorist organization in the world which are bokoharam and the fulaniherdsmen but ipob which u quota system educated almajiris have branded as terrorists in nigeria are well recognized in the world and allowed to protest in the streets of advanced civilized countries.

Can ur bokoharam and fulaniherdsmen brothers hold protests and rallies in the UK, US, Switzerland etc?

On the issue of restructuring if truly u brain dead northern parasites are not really scared to death of restructuring and staying on ur own why then did ur evil greedy leaders reneged and refused to implement the 2014 gej's confab document which ur leaders agreed upon which would have restructured nigeria and made it a better place to live in for everyone?
