Fayose visits Benue, Says “God will visit blood of victims of herdsmen killings on their killers, sponsors” Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has said that God will visit the blood of the innocent people of Benue State and other States killed by suspected herdsmen on the killers and their sponsors, even as he reiterated his call for the restructuring of the country. Benue state Governor, Samuel Ortom welcomes Ekiti state Governor, Ayodele Fayose to the state The governor, who was speaking in Makurdi, the Benue State capital during his visit today, to commiserate with the State Governor, Samuel Ortom and the people of the State over killings by suspected herdsmen, declared support for the Benue State Anti-Grazing Law and urged the people of the State to stand by the law, adding that; “since the law is for the Benue people by the Benue government and not for residents of other States, there should not be any problem about its enforcement.” His Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka said in a statement that Governor Fayose, who was accompanied by the Deputy Governor, Prof Kolapo Olusola, Chief of Staff; Chief Dipo Anisulowo, Chairman of the State House of Assembly Committee on Information; Dr Samuel Omotoso and others arrived at the Makurdi Airport at exactly 12:23pm and were received by Governor Ortom and other top functionaries of the State Government. He visited the Genabe, Makurdi mass grave where the 73 persons killed by suspected Fulani herdsmen in Guma and Logo local government areas of Benue State, were buried. Prayers were offered for the repose of the souls of the victims by the Ekiti State Deputy Governor, Prof Kolapo Olusola. Ekiti state governor, Ayodele Fayose with former Benue governor Gabriel Suswam during the former’s visit to Benue state Governor Fayose also visited the former Governor of the State, Gabriel Suswan at his residence. The governor urged the people of Benue State to be united in prayers, noting that “whosoever that is in government during the time of peace, posterity will remember him while those in powers when innocent people are being killed in the most barbaric manner will not be forgotten too. He advised the people of Benue to “change vehicle since the present vehicle of change has broken down.” Responding, Governor Ortom thanked Governor Fayose for visiting the State during its trying period. He described restructuring of the country as the panacea to this present maladministration and open bias of the security agencies. Governor Ortom said all cattle farmer in the State must embrace cattle ranching, declaring that “No retreat, no surrender on the total implementation of the State anti-grazing law.” The governor chided the Police and the Minister of Defense for allowing called strangers to display arms openly and kill people. He insisted the relocation of the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Ibrahim Idris was a ruse, saying “the IGP came just once and ran back to Abuja insulting me and dancing on the graves of the innocent people of Benue State.” He reiterated his call for the IGP’s resignation, describing him as a bad influence on the President having turned himself to the mouthpiece and defender of the herdsmen. He said the security agencies have allowed herdsmen to take over the business of kidnapping and killings and were being protected by the IGP https://www.vanguardngr.com/2018/02/fayose-visits-benue-says-god-will-visit-blood-of-victims-of-herdsmen-killings-on-their-killers-sponsors/amp/

The Peoples Democratic Party has crticised the Presidency for allegedly abandoning its responsibility of governance but now concerned itself with the running of a political party. It said that the Presidency was more concerned on how to return an obviously unpopular presidential candidate in 2019. It said that the appointment of a former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, as the leader of the All Progressives Congress Reconciliation Committee by the Presidency was wrong. It added that Tinubu, who is also the national leader of the ruling party, could not deliver an unpopular presidential candidate in 2019. The party said the Presidency had become so panicky that it had effectively hijacked the functions of the leadership of its alleged “dysfunctional and ideologically-vacuous All Progressives Congress,” by appointing people into partisan offices, outside the much-desired responsibility of governance. The PDP National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, in a statement in Abuja on Thursday, said, “It is ludicrous that after almost three years of failure to deliver on its campaign promises, the Buhari Presidency is now moving around, cap in hand, looking for those to use once again to beguile Nigerians ahead of the 2019 elections.” Ologbondiyan said that the Buhari Presidency had failed to be remorseful for its alleged misrule, noting that the disagreements in his (Buhari’s) party were fallouts of members’ resentment towards his desperation for power. He said, “There is widespread disenchantment and indignation across the nation resulting from hunger and the inability of the Buhari Presidency to provide the people with basic necessities of life, which they had always enjoyed in the past. “Nigerians are therefore waiting to see how Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, who has also openly expressed his concerns and disapprovals on the mismanagement of the economy and whose large constituents are direct victims of the ineptitude, impunity, nepotism, dictatorial tendencies, corruption and insecurity that have characterised the Buhari Presidency, will now turn around to preach that all is well and attempt to sell a practically bad product to the nation. “It is instructive to further state that the desperate move by the Presidency to politically prey on individuals is mere foolhardiness and a totally decadent approach to pit key leaders against the people on an issue that has already been thrown overboard. “This is more so as the political institutions and front runners that threw up the Buhari Presidency in 2015 have now, not only regretted their actions, but have also strongly advised that President Buhari should not contemplate contesting a second term in office. “Nigerians today suffer from pains inflicted on them by this administration and no amount of manipulation of individuals and public institutions can make them change their resolve to vote out the APC in 2019, particularly as the party is stuck with an unpopular candidate.” Ologbondiyan added that the PDP found the APC’s attempt to reconcile its dwindling ranks as laughable, cosmetic and politically inconsequential. “It will interest the APC to know that Nigerians are already rallying with the repositioned and rebranded PDP as we are poised to present a credible, competent and reliable candidate through a free, fair and transparent presidential primary,” he added. Responding, the APC asked the PDP to steer clear of its internal affairs. The National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, said, “Why are they worried about the internal affairs of our party? If the spokesman for the PDP has nothing to say he should shut up, what’s their business with our reconciliation? “Why are they concerned that we may not be able to achieve reconciliation? They should leave us alone. They should mind their business; we are ready to take them on issues of governance and policy that should be the focus of opposition not our internal affairs.” http://punchng.com/2019-tinubu-cant-deliver-bad-product-pdp-tells-presidency/

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has said it is unfortunate that many of the country’s leaders lack basic economic skills which he insists is one of the reasons why the country has not made much progress. He said this, yesterday, at the 15th annual leadership symposium organised by the Center for Values in Leadership (CVL) in Lagos. Obasanjo, who was the special guest of honour at the lecture, said even though he is optimistic about the country, it has become imperative that the country transitions to a popular movement, which would give the people a feeling that power is in their hands. “The three ingredients of success are leadership, governance and development. Leaders should understand the world we live in; they should not live their lives in ignorance of what is happening around them. “Any leader that wants to be successful must have a good knowledge of the economy but some of our leaders do not even understand what demand and supply, which is the most basic aspect of economics. In Nigeria, we are not there yet, but, we would be deceiving ourselves if we do not speak home truths. “What are these home truths? The first is that diversity must be acknowledged and be appreciated. We should make diversity an asset and not a liability. “The second is infrastructure and the basis of our development must be adequate provision of infrastructure. We should also be able to transition peacefully from one government to the other or one party to the other. We must transition to a popular movement and give the people the feeling that power is in their hands,” Obasanjo said. The former president also added that security issues should not be emotional and, in any decision taken towards security, the changing times must be considered. “You cannot use the security methods that were used in the colonial times and assume that it would be effective in the 21st century. Adapt modern security techniques and don’t say that it is not your culture. Culture is dynamic. It changes. When we ordered motorcycle riders to ensure they wear crash helmets for safety, the late Abubakar Rimi objected and said it was not their culture in the North to wear helmets. I responded by telling him that riding a motorcycle is not their culture, either; it is a western culture. And, I also told him that if he wants to retain the cultural means of transportation in the North, then, everybody should be riding a donkey or a camel because motorcycles were invented by the West…” https://www.sunnewsonline.com/some-leaders-dont-understand-economics-obasanjo/amp/

The Senate President, Bukola Saraki, has closed his defence after resuming for the continuation of his trial on false asset declaration on Tuesday. Mr. Saraki returned to the tribunal on Tuesday to defend three of the 18-count charge of alleged false declaration of asset brought against him in 2015. In December, he was ordered by the Appeal Court to return to the Code of Conduct Tribunal, CCT, venue of the trial to defend the three charges. At the continuation of the trial on Tuesday, Mr. Saraki’s lawyer, Paul Usoro, presented a single witness, who was a former commissioner of the Code of Conduct Bureau, Ademola Adegbo. After introducing the witness, Mr. Usoro applied to admit Mr. Adegbo’s resume in court as evidence. Mr. Edegbo was a commissioner and member of the board in 2015 when the case was first filed. Reacting to the application for the submission of Mr. Adegbo’s resume, the prosecution counsel, Rotimi Jacobs, objected to the admissibility of the said document. Mr. Jacobs said the resume intended to be admitted in evidence had no relationship with the three-count charge Mr. Saraki was asked to defend himself against. In his response, however Mr. Usoro insisted that his client would like to tender the resume to demonstrate ”the degree of qualification obtained by the witness on the subject matter of the case.” In a ruling, the tribunal chairman, Danladi Umar, admitted the document in evidence stressing that the resume ”would not constitute a problem for the prosecution.” “Having listened to the submissions of counsel, I am of the opinion that the resume sought to be admitted is not an issue that should cause any contempt. I hereby admit that the resume is relevant and would not constitute any problem for the prosecution,” Mr. Umar said. During the cross-examination of the defence witness, Mr. Jacobs asked a series of questions intended to show that the witness was ‘not constitutionally supposed to be occupying the office, as a CCB commissioner in 2015.” According to Mr. Jacobs, Mr. Adegbo was legally supposed to have left office in 2015, having assumed the appointment as a commissioner of the bureau in 2010. Reacting to a question put to him by Mr. Jacobs regarding the constitutionality of his stay in the office, Mr. Adegbo insisted that ”according to law, he was still a commissioner at the time.” A drama ensued during the cross examination when a second member of the bench, Williams Atedze referred to Mr. Jacobs as; ‘You’. Swiftly, Mr. Jacobs responded saying he was not a ‘you’ but that his name is ‘Rotimi Jacobs’. Again, when Mr. Atedze attempted to address him during the heat of the questions and answers session, he (Atedze) asked Mr. Jacobs, ”to be careful.” In a quick reaction, however the prosecution lawyer said: “I cannot be careful. I cannot be careful my lord! That shows that your lordship is intimidating me”. Mr. Atedze then explained that the purpose of his warning was for the prosecution lawyer to avoid acting in a confrontational manner with the defence witness. Subsequently, Mr. Jacobs agreed to be calm in his usage of language. After a series of questions and answers, Mr. Usoro made two attempts to re-examine the witness on the things he said while responding to the questions asked by the prosecution counsel. Both attempts were however objected to by Mr. Jacobs and the objections, upheld by the tribunal. Subsequently, Mr. Saraki’s lead counsel approached the defendant for a short discussion. When he returned to the bar, Mr. Kanu Agabi, a former Attorney General of the Federation told the court that his client (Saraki) does not intend to present any further witness. He therefore informed the court of their desire to close the defence. The tribunal judge thus adjourned the matter till February 27 for adoption of addresses Addressing journalists after the hearing, Mr. Usoro said the defence had intended presenting four witnesses, but decided to leave it at one, since they believed they would say what they had to say in their addresses. “It is a matter of strategy. I think it is a dynamic strategy. You may decide in the cause of hearing your matter that you think you should change your strategy and simply close your case. Plenty of the things we want to ask the witness will come in the address,” said Mr. Usoro, a senior advocate of Nigeria. In his opinion, however, Mr. Jacobs said the decision of the defence to close their case was at their discretion. “It is at their discretion. The witness did not say anything about the charge. He did not contradict what we said. So I have nothing to bother myself about,” Mr. Jacobs said. https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/top-news/257762-false-asset-charge-saraki-closes-defence.html

Justice Abang a disgrace to Nigeria judiciary, he‘s acting as persecutor against Metuh - Fayose Ekiti state Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has described the controversial Federal High Court Judge, Okon Abang, as a disgrace to the judiciary in Nigeria, saying that the judge was acting more like a persecutor in the case of former National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Olisa Metuh, such that he ridiculed Nigeria by causing an accused to be brought to court on a stretcher. The governor, who said it was clear that Justice Abang was out to satisfy the sinister aim of Metuh’s persecutors, said; “In saner climes, all that is needed as proof of inability to stand trial due to ill health is a doctor report from duly recognized health institution and one wonders whether medical report from federal government owned Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital, Nnewi, Anambra State should not have been enough to convince Justice Abang that Metuh was indeed sick. According to a statement issued on Tuesday, by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere OIayinka, Governor Fayose said; “Shame on Abang, a judge who goes to court robing himself in garment of corruption. Why didn’t he (Abang) dock Metuh with the stretcher on which he was brought to court yesterday despite all his initial bragging? “The judge’s utterances during last month’s court appearance when he was told that Metuh was on admission and could not appear in court was a clear demonstration of malice and desperation to convict an accused person at all cost. The governor said it was obvious that Justice Abang’s only aim was to satisfy the interest of those with evidence of his corrupt practices, adding that; “When they needed the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) Chairman, Danladi Umar to help them convict Senate President Bukola Saraki, they made the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to clear him of culpability in the N10 million bribery allegation levelled against him. “In April 2016, the EFCC said via a letter signed by the Secretary of the Commission, Emmanuel Adegboyega Aremo that ‘after investigating the case for some time, it became clear that the whole allegation bordered in the realm of mere suspicion and would be difficult to charge the CCT judge to court based on the allegation.’ “Today, the same Umar that they cleared has been charged to court by the EFCC on the same allegation. “Obviously, they intend to use the criminal charges filed against the CCT chairman to blackmail him into doing their sinister bidding of convicting Senator Saraki at all cost just as they are doing in the case of Metuh. “On August 18, 2016, five Appeal Court justices in their judgment in the case of Abia State Governor, Okezie Ikpeazu Vs. Samson Ogah, said Justice Abang committed a rape on democracy! “Also, a three-member panel of Appeal Court judges led by Justice Ibrahim Salauwa said the judgement delivered by Justice Abang on October 14, 2016 was as ‘fraudulent as it was violent’ and that the judge acted like Father Christmas. “If not because of his ability to do hatchet jobs for those presently holding Nigeria at the jugular, how can a judge like Abang that has been adjudged severally as giving fraudulent judgments and acting like Father Christmas still sit in judgment over cases involving Nigerians?” "We therefore call on the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Walter Onnoghen to do something on Abang to save the bench in the hand of judges like him. http://newsflash247.com.ng/2018/02/fulani-herdsmen-attack-ketu-ogun-sack-30-schools-2/

tonyzaks: The Police Public Relations Officer, Mr Jimoh Moshood has described Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State as ‘a drowning man’ that should not be engaged with issues.https://www.channelstv.com/2018/02/06/police-spokesman-blasts-governor-ortom-describes-him-as-drowning-man/amp/ Are u satisfied |
tonyzaks:And your point is |
Force Public Relation Officer, Jimoh Moshood, on Tuesday, attacked the personality of the Governor of Benue State, Mr. Samuel Ortom, by calling him a drowning governor, if he could watch his state degenerate to a lawlessness state. He was reacting to the a press release by the government of Benue State that called the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris to resign, if couldn’t restore peace. He made the statement February 6, 2018 on Sunrise Daily, a popular early morning show on Nigeria’s best TV station, Channels. Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Mr. Terver Akase, who was on the hot seat maintained the stance of the government of Benue State that IGP Idris should resign, “the state commissioner of police takes orders from the IGP, if he couldn’t direct his men to maintain peace in the state, then he should resign.” The CPS accused the police authority of supporting herdsmen killing in the state. Akase’s statement angered Moshood, “the governor should be the one to resign because he’s a drowning man, who has failed to put measures in place to maintain law and order in his state.” The show nearly degenerated to confrontation between Mr. Akase, and the police PRO, intervention of the host Abuja studios saved the situation. The host advised the police PRO to withdraw such “a degrading” statement, but ‘indirectly’ failed to do, the host threatened to discontinue the interview, if both men failed to abide by the codes of conduct of the TV station. Abusive and derogatory statements aren’t allowed on the best Channels TV. At a time, a former Deputy Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Dr. Obadiah Mailafia, made a derogatory statement against the person of Mr. Ortom. He was mandated to withdraw his statement, which he did. It’d be recalled that Benue State Government faulted the Inspector General of Police, over his comment that the recent attacks on farmers in the state was as a result of the implementation of the anti-open grazing law. The state said it expected the police to be neutral in sensitive issue. A statement by Mr. Akase expressed the disappointment of the state governor: “We read statements credited to the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris as having blamed the recent killing of innocent Benue people by herdsmen on the Open Grazing Prohibition and Ranches Establishment Law of the state. “We thought that the IGP was misquoted and expected the police authorities to issue a rebuttal to the reports hence our delay in responding swiftly. Consequently, we have to respond to the erroneous impression which the reports have created. “Indeed it was these unrelenting spate of attacks that prompted the people of the state to seek a permanent solution to the incessant clashes between farmers and herders hence the law for the establishment of ranches as the best method of animal husbandry across the globe. “The law which has constitutional backing followed due process with the requisite public hearings and inputs from various stakeholders. The police authorities had ample opportunity to also make inputs while the process was ongoing. They however failed to do so. “The unfortunate claim by the IGP indicates that some of those saddled with the responsibility of protecting and property and maintaining law and order have abdicated their duty and become accomplices with those undermining the very existence of the country. This is unacceptable. “If truly the IGP said what was widely reported by the media, our conclusion is that his is a clear case of a man who is either on a mission to mislead the nation or is complicit in the attacks on Benue communities and the killing of many people by terror herdsmen. “The Open Grazing Prohibition and Ranches Establishment Law of Benue State is certainly not the cause of the crisis as insinuated by the IGP. Mr Idris needs to be reminded that Fulani herdsmen attacked Benue State more than 50 times and killed scores of people before the law was enacted. “The IGP should tell Nigerians if states like Adamawa, Zamfara, Kaduna, Nasarawa, Enugu, Edo, Plateau among others where armed herdsmen have killed hundreds of people also have anti-open grazing laws in place. “It will be recalled that a few days after the killings took place and all fingers were pointed towards the direction of armed herdsmen, the IGP quickly rose in defence of the herdsmen and frankly tried to divert attention from the genocide being perpetrated by herdemen with a comment that it was a ‘mere communal clash’. Did he not know that there was a law in place in Benue State when he made that first statement? “With his latest demand that the ranching law of Benue be suspended, it is now clear where the loyalty and interest of the Inspector General of Police lies – certainly not with innocent Nigerians. He has now positioned himself not only as the mouthpiece of those who are killing Benue people but indeed as their shield. Little wonder herdsmen still proudly carry out sophisticated weapons and willfully terrorize innocent people in the state without being arrested. “We wish to place it on record that contrary to the directive by President Muhammadu Buhari that the Inspector General of Police should relocate to Benue to ensure that the killings stop, the IGP spent only one day in Benue and left for a destination where only he could tell. No one has seen him in Benue since that day. “Nigerians must be told that contrary to the statement credited to the IGP, herdsmen are still killing people in Benue, so it will be wrong to say that enough security has been provided. At the last count after the mass burial of 73 victims of the attacks, about ten people have been killed in “Guma Local Government Area, one killed in Logo and many more receiving treatment in the hospital having suffered varying degrees of injuries with property worth millions of naira destroyed. “Benue now has nearly 100, 000 displaced persons in seven camps established by the State Government. We therefore find IG Ibrahim Idris’ statement as mockery and a shameful dance on the graves of those killed in the state by herdsmen. “The constitutional responsibility of the police is to maintain law and order and not to make or criticise same. “That the IGP would have the audacity to blame a law made to ensure peace in the state and call for its repeal amounts to taking sides with lawless groups that gave notice to invade and carried out their threats. “No wonder, the police ignored petitions for the arrest and prosecution of leaders of the Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, the masterminds of the current invasion and the attendant massacre. “If the Inspector General of Police, Mr Idris is not competent to help bring an end to the invasion and killing of innocent people in Benue and other states by herdsmen, the noble thing to do is to resign instead of twisting facts to suit his objective.” Carnage in Benue State have been going on for some time between herdsmen and Benue farmers, which has led to lost of lives and property worth millions of Naira. http://infobase.com.ng/2018/02/06/breaking-police-pro-calls-gov-ortom-a-drowning-man/

Bello Abdullahi Bodejo, President of Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore Socio-cultural Association, has warned against any attempt to remove President Muhammadu Buhari in 2019. Speaking with The Sun, Bodejo said the eyes of the Fulanis all over the country were ‘opened,’ stressing that Buhari was hated because of them. According to Bodejo, “Nobody should try to remove Buhari in 2019. All the Fulani in Nigeria today, our eyes are open. “All of us are behind Buhari; we have seen that they want to destroy the Fulani because of Buhari. “We would not allow anybody to intimidate the Federal Government or to take Buhari’s mandate; we would be ready to follow him and fight it. We are ready to do anything to ensure that Buhari comes back to complete the good work he is doing. “The people criticizing him are just few and nothing would affect his chances of coming back.” Bodejo had earlier revealed that politicians were the ones buying arms for Fulani herdsmen. https://www.dailypost.ng/2018/02/03/2019-fulani-herdsmen-reveal-will-happen-buhari-removed/amp/

The Department of States Service, (DSS) has arraigned two suspected herdsmen, Namajo Mohammadu, 32 and Abubakar Abase, 18 before an Ado-Ekiti Magistrates’ Court over alleged murder and armed robbery. The Prosecution from the DSS, Mr Olaoluwa Olatunbosun told the court on Wednesday that the defendants committed the offense on Jan. 18 in Ido-Ekiti. Olatunbosun alleged that the defendants on the said date, while armed with guns and other offensive weapons, unlawfully murdered one pregnant Tiv woman, Mrs Muwaga Felix in her farm. He said the duo committed the offense of armed robbery against the people of the community. The offense is punishable under Section 516, 402 and 319 of the Criminal Code. The defendants were not represented by any counsel and their pleas were not taken as well. The prosecution urged the court to remand the defendants in DSS custody pending the conclusion of the investigations. The Chief Magistrate, Mr Ropo Adegboye ordered that the defendants be kept in custody of the DSS till the end of the investigation. Adegboye adjourned the case till Feb. 28 for mention. https://www.dailypost.ng/2018/01/31/fulani-herdsmen-suspects-arraigned-killing-pregnant-woman-ekiti/amp/

Pastor Tunde Bakare of Latter rain ministries has revealed what he would have to Killer Herdsmen in the Northern part of the country if he was president of Nigeria. Speaking to Channels TV, Bakare complained about the several killings carried out by the herdsmen, adding that the country was in a state of war considering the number of lives lost. In his words; “I can understand if you say let us create ranches because this would boost our economy, but the word colony used is so unfortunate and absolutely insensitive. Who are you colonizing?. I will clamp them down in so many ways. Are there no forests in Sambisa forest where you can have ranches?” He, however, disclosed that the solution to the nation’s woes was Restructuring; “Let us restructure, the irrational cycle of four-four years is causing this country to bleed and we will bleed to death. Money that should be used for the development of this country (is being wasted) on things that really don’t count.Recycle the same people over and over again and every four years, we go to the poll.” https://politicsngr.com/president-will-clamp-killer-herdsmen-tunde-bakare/

Ekiti sets to establish anti-corruption agency, bill passes second reading in House of Assembly A bill for the establishment of Ekiti Economic Crimes Commission (EECC) in Ekiti State sent to the House of Assembly by the State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose was today, sent to the House Committee on Public Accounts and Anti Corruption for further legislative action. This was shortly after the bill passed second reading on the floor of the House at plenary on Wednesday. Presenting the bill to other members of the Assembly at plenary in Ado Ekiti, the Leader of Business, Hon. Olatunji Akinyele said the bill sought to curb corruption, embezzlement, fraud, abandoned projects, among others, in the state. Members of the Assembly, including the Chairman House Committee on Information, Hon.(Dr) Samuel Omotoso;Hon. Jeje Samuel, Hon Akinleye Ekundayo and Hon. Titilayo Owolabi - Akerele canvassed for a speedy passage of the bill. They said the bill would halt diversion of funds and eradicate all form of economic crimes in Ekiti State when it became operational. Dr Omotoso said the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended) clearly stated the functions of state Assemblies on state finances and condemned the incessant harassment of state officials by the Economic and Finance Crimes Commission (EFCC) across the nation. He recalled that a recent judgement by a competent Court in Ado Ekiti had called the EFCC to order. Hon Owolabi-Akerele remarked that the eventual passage of the bill would check activities of internet fraudsters called "Yahoo Yahoo" across Ekiti state. The Speaker of the Assembly, Rt. Hon (Pastor) Kola Oluwawole, described the bill as timely and stressed that it would lay a solid foundation as well as improve good governance in Ekiti state. Pastor Oluwawole, who stressed that the bill would assist government to improve on the dividends of democracy to the people, charged the joint committees and other members of the Assembly to work towards achieving a speedy passage of the bill. Pastor Oluwawole commended the state governor, Chief Ayodele Fayose, for introducing the bill, noting that only a transparent leader could take such a step. Also, a bill to provide for the appointment of person to the office of Solicitor General and Permanent Secretary and other matters connected therewith, 2018 passed the first reading at plenary. |
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has dismissed the report of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on restructuring as a ruse intended to deceive voters ahead of the 2019 general elections. The party also described the report as a grand design by the “Failed” President Muhammadu Buhari-led government to divert public attention from the woes of a worsening economy, relentless killings, corruption and endless litany of afflictions occasioned by their almost three years of “Dysfunctional governance.” In a statement on Wednesday, PDP National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbodiyan said it amounts to outright depravity that the same APC leaders who on assumption of office, rejected restructuring would suddenly embrace same barely a year to the 2019 general elections. The PDP said the fact that the APC has not the littlest intention of implementing any form of restructuring is completely manifest in the attitude and body language of its leaders including President Buhari, who in his 2018 new year address, rejected the idea of restructuring, by declaring that “When all the aggregates of nationwide opinions are considered, my firm view is that our problems are more to do with process than structure. “Even Kaduna State governor, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, who eventually became the Chairman of the APC panel on restructuring, had also on June 29, 2017, during an interview on Channels TV, denied that the APC promised restructuring and described Nigerians, who were taking his party to task on the issue, as political opportunists and irresponsible people. “This is in addition to declaration by the Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, who in a Radio Nigeria (FRCN) interview programme on June 9, 2017, stated that restructuring is not President Buhari’s priority. “As a matter of fact, it is instructive to note that the APC refused to rally its members in the National Assembly to support or vote for any amendment that dwelt on restructuring when the federal legislature voted on sections of the constitution where amendments have been proposed in the direction of restructuring. “If anything, APC leaders have consistently criticized any amendment that spoke or have a semblance of restructuring or true federalism. “It is therefore deceptive that in the wake of their rejection by the people, the discredited APC and its dysfunctional government have suddenly woken up to parade as champions of a restructured Nigeria. This is a callous and wicked attempt to once again take Nigerians on a trip to the land of fantasy,” the statement read. https://www.vanguardngr.com/2018/01/apcs-report-restructuring-smokescreen-says-pdp/amp/
