Walspring:
On May 23, 2019, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published a final rule to adjust fees charged by the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) to international students, exchange visitors and SEVP-certified schools. The final rule is available on the Federal Register and will take effect June 24, 2019.

Fee Increases

DHS will implement an increase in the following fees:

The I-901 SEVIS Fee for F and M international students will increase from $200 to $350.
DHS will maintain the $35 I-901 SEVIS Fee for J exchange visitors in the au pair, camp counselor, and summer work or travel program participant categories, but increase the full I-901 SEVIS Fee for other J exchange visitors from $180 to $220.
The SEVP school certification petition fee for initial certification will increase from $1,700 to $3,000.
New Fees

DHS will introduce the following new fees:

A $1,250 fee for SEVP-certified schools filing a petition for recertification.
A $675 fee when schools file the Form I-290B, “Notice of Appeal or Motion."
DHS will maintain the $655 fee for a site visit for a petitioning school and its additional schools or campuses during initial certification, but will also charge this fee when a SEVP-certified school changes its physical location or adds a new physical location or campus to its Form I-17, “Petition for Approval of School for Attendance by Nonimmigrant Student."
The new fees will be implemented at 12:00 a.m. EDT June 24, 2019, after which time all schools and students will be required to pay the new and increased fees.

Students

Regulation requires all prospective F, M and J students to pay the I-901 SEVIS Fee before the Department of State issues a visa. Students and exchange visitors who pay the I-901 SEVIS Fee prior to the fee implementation date, but before they obtain a visa or enter the United States, will not need to pay the difference between the new fee and the old fee. Students will continue to pay the I-901 SEVIS Fee on FMJfee.com.

Schools

Schools will continue to pay all fees related to the Form I-17 at Pay.gov, and will pay the new Form I-290B, “Notice of Appeal or Motion,” fee at Pay.gov. Should a school submit a complete initial certification or recertification petition, petition update or Form I-290B and it is not filed or adjudicated before the fee implementation date, the school will not be required to pay the new or increased fee retroactively while in submitted status. If SEVP cancels a school’s submission on or after the date the new fees are implemented because the original petition was incomplete, the school will be required to pay the new fees when resubmitting their petition.

SEVP will communicate all updates regarding the new fee changes to SEVP’s social media channels and ICE.gov/SEVP. For specific questions, please contact the SEVP Response Center.

EFCC Arrests Human Organs' Trafficker in Port Harcourt

Operatives of the Port Harcourt Zonal Office of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, have arrested leader of a syndicate selling and buying human organs for trafficking to foreigners.



The syndicate leader: Ukaeje John Emeka( alias Dr. Phil Mark, Dr. Donald Phillip, Dr. Wesley David), was arrested on April 16, 2021 at Rumukparali, Ozuoba, Port Harcourt, Rivers State, based on established intelligence on his suspicious fraudulent internet dealings.



Preliminary investigations by the EFCC showed that, the suspect is leading a syndicate of fraudsters falsely presenting themselves as medical doctors, with a human organ bank, particularly kidneys for sale and purchase.



Victims of the syndicate include people with renal disease and even healthy people desirous of selling their organs in Nigeria; India; Pakistan; Indonesia and United Arab Emirate.



Items recovered from the suspect include: one Nigerian passport; one Republic of Cote D'ivoire passport, nine ATM cards; one black-coloured HP laptop; one gold-coloured Tecno L9 plus phone; one- gold coloured Samsung Galaxy J8 and one ash- coloured Lexus ES 330 salon car.



The Commission is on the trail of other members of the syndicate within and outside Nigeria.

Nigerian teen gets 19 scholarship offers worth $5million in US and Canada

A Nigerian teenage girl, Victory Yinka-Banjo has received 19 full scholarship offers from universities across the United States and Canada after scoring straight As in her West African Secondary School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).

The 17-year-old secondary school graduate, was offered more than $5 million dollars’ worth of scholarship money for an undergraduate program of study, according to admission documents and estimates of financial aid awards, CNN reports.

Born to Nigerian parents, Chika Yinka-Banjo, a senior lecturer at the University of Lagos and Adeyinka Banjo, procurement and supply chain executive, Victory was given potential full scholarships from the Ivy League schools, Yale College, Princeton University, Harvard College, and Brown University.

Other US scholarship offers included those from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Stanford University, Johns Hopkins University and the University of Virginia.

In Canada, Victory was offered the Lester B. Pearson scholarship from the University of Toronto and the Karen McKellin International Leader of Tomorrow (KMILOT) scholarship from the University of British Columbia.

Speaking with CNN, she said, “It still feels pretty unbelievable. I applied to so many schools because I didn’t even think any school would accept me. Their admissions processes are extremely selective. They only accept the best of the best. So, you can imagine how, on a daily basis, I have to remind myself that I actually got into these schools. It is surreal.”

EFCC Charges Islamic Group to Preach Against Corruption

The Head of the Lagos Zonal Office of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission , EFCC, Ahmed Ghali, has called on the leadership of Al-Fatih-Ul-Quareeb Islamic Society of Nigeria to always preach against corruption in religious engagements.

Ghali, who expressed his delight for the opportunity to address the group, emphasized the need for good parenting , in order to ensure a corrupt- free society.

He said: “ You are role models in the society. So, the responsibility of the EFCC to rid the country of corruption can be likened to the responsibility that the almighty Allah has enjoined you all to do, among which is ensuring that the Muslim faithful do not involve in criminal activities.

“You must continue to show exemplary leadership, while also admonishing your members to do what is right and forbid what is wrong.

“Whenever we see anything that goes against the public interest, we should either condemn it in writing or we talk about it.”

Quoting from the Quran, Ghali further urged the leadership of the group to instill the fear of God in their members , adding that “Whoever supports evil is not doing what is right in the sight of Allah.”

The Lagos Zonal Head also used the occasion to appeal to the members of the group to embrace the whistle-blowing policy of the Federal Government, saying “ for the ongoing war against corruption to be successful, all hands must be on deck .“

In his remarks, the group’s Secretary, Kameel Adewale, thanked the EFCC for the recognition accorded the group and also assured the Commission of continuous support in the fight against economic and financial crimes.

She joined CDC in the CDC Zambia country office, where she first served as Deputy Associate Director for Programs (2016-2018) and then as Senior Medical Advisor (2018-2020). While in Zambia, Dr. Boyd’s accomplishments included: leading the Antiretroviral Treatment Surge campaign; establishing the Zambia National HIV Clinical Mentorship program; and directing the first regional COVID-19 response ECHO community of practice in Southern Africa and West Africa.



Dr. Boyd is a trained vaccinologist and conducted vaccine trials for influenza A (H1N1), live oral Shigella, Vibrio cholera, and Salmonella vaccine candidates from 2009-2013 at the University of Maryland’s Center for Vaccine Development. She subsequently joined the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, where she led global health vaccine efforts, including for Ebola, from 2013-2016.

Nigerian anti-corruption campaigner detained

International groups condemn detention and fanciful charges

International anti-corruption and human rights groups have strongly condemned the detention of leading Nigerian anti-corruption activist Olanrewaju Suraju of HEDA, one of the first non-governmental groups to expose corruption allegations surrounding the acquisition of the OPL 245 oil field by oil multinationals Shell and Eni.

Mr Suraju, along with the NGOs Corner House, Global Witness and Re:Common, has been accused by the former Nigerian Attorney General Mohammed Adoke of forging an email that formed part of the prosecution case in the recently concluded trial of the two multinationals and 11 other defendants in Milan. The defendants were all acquitted.

The email was sent to an employee of JP Morgan Chase, the bank that held the proceeds of the deal on behalf of the Federal Government of Nigeria. It was signed by a Mohammed Bello Adoke.

The email was from an address associated with a company owned by Aliyu Abubakhar, who is charged along with Adoke in Nigeria with offenses related to the OPL 245 deal. Abubakhar denies wrongdoing in Nigeria, as does Adoke.

The email first came to light in 2021 as part of civil proceedings by the Federal Republic of Nigeria (FRN) against JP Morgan Chase [JPMC] in the High Court in London, where it was disclosed by JPMC and cited by the FRN in support of its claim.

In a Joint Statement, Mr Suraju and the three NGOs have categorically denied Adoke’s assertions that the email is a forgery, and that the forgery was done by the organisations behind the petitions that led to the prosecution of Shell, Eni and others in Italy and Nigeria.

The groups state:

"We recognise that the email would certainly appear damaging to Mr Adoke. Specifically, its points to an apparent association between a Mohammed Bello Adoke and the Abubakar company that subsequently arranged the purchase of a house for former Attorney General Mr. Mohammed Bello Adoke SAN. Moreover, that association is specifically tied to the OPL 245 deal through the email.

We categorically deny that we forged the email, the notion is entirely fanciful. It was obtained through a government-to-government request from Italy to the United Kingdom. The documentation is now part of the public record and Mr Suraju supplied the full intergovernmental correspondence to the investigating police officer. It is clear from the correspondence that the email was obtained from JP Morgan by the UK Serious Fraud Office and transmitted directly to the Milan Prosecutor. Neither Mr Suraju and his organisation HEDA, nor Corner House nor Global Witness nor Re:Common were involved at any stage in the chain of custody.

The original email as received by JPMC will have properties and electronic information that would enable the identification of the IP address from which it was sent. The Nigerian police should request this information and release Mr Suraju immediately.

We will be raising Mr Suraju's totally unjustified detention with the board of the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI) and calling for Nigeria's suspension pending an investigation into Mr Suraju's detention and the motivation for the allegations of forgery.

The statement signed by Nicholas Hildyard of Cornerhouse, Simon Taylor of Globalwitness, Luca Manes of Re:Common and Arigbabu Sulaimon of HEDA calls for proper investigation of the forgery allegation and immediate halt to the target of Mr Suraju and HEDA for attack while also urging other human rights defenders and anti-corruption campaigners to do the same."
