PoliticsPanic In Federal Civil Service After Perm Secs' Sacking by fabulous16(op): 11:16am On Nov 12, 2015
Panic and fears have gripped directors in
the federal civil service following the
retirements of 17 permanent sectaries on
Monday, November 9.
The premises of the federal civil service
commission in Abuja
The directors are afraid that the
reorganisation of departments and
directorates might lead to their ouster from
the civil service.
The Punch reports that the ongoing
restructuring of departments was in line
with President Muhammadu Buhari’s
decision to reduce the number of federal
ministries from 29 to 25.
While the ministries of aviation, police and
special duties were scrapped, the ministries
of lands, housing, urban development and
works were merged to become the Ministry
of Works and Housing. The ministries of
information, culture, national orientation
and tourism were merged to become the
Ministry of Information and Culture.
The reorganisation will reportedly affect
Grade Levels 15 to 17 officers, who are
mostly assistant directors, deputy directors
and directors.
A director, who was handling the
reorganisation of the departments and
directorates, revealed that in those
ministries that were merged some directors
might be retired. However, he noted that
such compulsory retirement would affect
those who have few years to spend in the
civil service or had cases of graft.
A senior officer in the office of the Head of
Service, who spoke on condition of
anonymity, explained the reasons for the
restructuring.
“What I can tell you for sure is that this is a
restructuring exercise by the present
administration aimed at revitalising and re-
engineering the civil service for effective
service delivery. So, if the federal
government feels that merging of a
particular ministry with another is going to
bring smooth governance, so be it. You
cannot challenge the government for a
particular action that is going to bring
service delivery for Nigeria. So, the merger
certainly is going to bring service delivery
better for the development of the nation
Meanwhile, Alade Lawal, the secretary-
general of the Association of Senior Civil
Servants of Nigeria, stressed that the union
would resist the compulsory retirement of
directors.
“The other area where we want to advise
the government to thread with caution is
the rumour making the rounds that some
directors will be removed from service. On
this one, we will resist the move and also
challenge it with all trade union actions at
our disposal. The post of a director is a
career position and not political.
“The retirement position is governed by the
Public Service Rules which stipulates 60
years of age or 35 years of service,
whichever comes first. Any attempt to
remove them prematurely before the
terminal end of their career is unlawful and
we will not accept it. This is not saying that
anyone that is found wanting cannot be
disciplined. In doing that, however, due
process must be followed,” he said.
Following the sack of 17 permanent
secretaries, President Buhari has recently
announced the names of the new
replacements for the federal government.
The total number of new appointees is 54,
which includes 18 in the Federal Civil
Service.

PoliticsEkweremadu: Anti- Saraki Senators Stage A Walk Out by fabulous16(op): 9:26am On Nov 12, 2015
Senators Ahmad Lawan and George Akume, who were favoured by the All Progressives Congress to emerge as the Senate President and Deputy Senate President respectively at the June 9 inauguration of the Senate, walked out of plenary in protest on Wednesday. The senators, who walked out in company with some of their colleagues, protested the decision of the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, to allow his deputy, Ike Ekweremadu, to preside over plenary in his absence. Ekweremadu presided over the Wednesday sitting because Saraki was at the Presidential Villa to attend the inauguration of new ministers by President Muhammadu Buhari. Lawan and three others, later held a brief discussion before they left for their various offices in the new Senate wing. The plenary was the first that Ekweremadu would preside over since the inauguration of the Eighth Senate. Ekweremadu remained the first opposition senator that would preside over the red chamber since 1999 when the country returned to democracy. At the moment, the APC has the majority with 60 senators while the PDP has 49. Ekweremadu, who had defeated Senator Ali Ndume (APC, Borno South) with 54 to 20 votes in June, presided over the plenary until the arrival of Saraki around 12.50pm from the Villa. It was observed that while Ekweremadu was presiding, the chamber was half-empty as only 27 APC senators were on their seats, while 40 PDP senators were present. Ekweremadu referred the request of President Muhammadu Buhari for the confirmation of Mr. Babatunde Fowler as the Executive Chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service; Ahmed Kuru as the Managing Director of the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria, and three other executive directors of AMCON to the Senate Committee on Finance. The Secretary of the Senate Unity Forum, Suleiman Hunkuyi (APC, Kaduna North), in a statement said, “We have boycotted plenary because the minority cannot preside over the majority.” The senator said, “We noticed with grave sadness, the handover of the hallowed chamber of the Senate today to the opposition party, the PDP by allowing Senator Ike Ekweremadu, a PDP stalwart, to preside over the APC majority senators.” The SUF therefore vowed to continue their boycott of plenary whenever Ekweremadu presides because they would never recognise him as the deputy Senate President. But the Senate spokesperson, Senator Aliyu Abdullahi, said the alleged conspiracy theory by some of his colleagues remained only in their imagination and urged Nigerians to disregard it. Abdullahi, who addressed journalists on Wednesday evening said, “The bi-partisan stand of the Senate has not and will not be an impediment.” The spokesperson said the Senate had adjourned plenary till next week Tuesday in honour of the Acting Clerk of the Senate, Mr. Adedotun Durojaiye, who died recently. punchng.com/ekweremadu-anti-saraki-senators-stage-a-walk-out/

PoliticsGovernor Wike Sacks Rivers Revenue Chairman by fabulous16(op): 9:35am On Nov 11, 2015
Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers state has
sacked Onene Oshila-Obele Oshoko, the
chairman of the Rivers State Internal
Revenue Board.
According to Daily Post, there was no reason
given for the sack of the revenue boss.
Governor Wike announced the sack via a
statement signed by the secretary to the
state government, Kenneth Kobani.
The statement stressed that the injunction
was to take effect immediately.
Wike in the statement also approved the
appointment of the former PDP
governorship candidate in the state, Nimi
Walson-Jack, as the executive director of
Public Private Partnership (PPP).
Osila-Obele Oshoko has been directed to
handover all responsibilities to the
permanent secretary in the state Ministry of
Finance.
It would be recalled that Governor Wike
recently approved the appointment of
twelve special advisers and another set of
caretaker chairmen for the various local
government councils. https://www.naij.com/633851-just-governor-wike-sacks-internal-revenue-chairman.html

PoliticsPresident Buhari, No Time For Remorse by fabulous16(op): 4:35pm On Nov 02, 2015
President Muhammadu
Buhari’s recent visit to India, where he
disclosed that Nigeria is broke, is currently
the core subject for discussions. In his
column with The Nation, Sam Omatseye
opines that it is too early for the president to
start lamenting but high time he started
implementing. Omatseye notes that the
cabinet is not a talk shop, but a brewery of
ideas that the brewers themselves turn into
frothy fulfilment on the people’s dinner table.
Buhari
We are in a state of suspended animation.
The phrase, once used to acclaim by Wole
Soyinka here, actually originated in the 19th
century. Samuel Coleridge, author of the
popular poem Rime of the Ancient Mariners,
also popularised it in the era of the
Romantic poets. But the phrase came out of
the loins of the Royal Humane Society to
describe the state of a drowning man.
The drowning man is neither dead nor alive.
He inhabits that never-realm of paralysis. It
is that place between conception and birth,
between night and day, between sleep and
vigil, between silence and sound.
The president’s remorse in India
As President Mohammadu Buhari jetted out
to India
, he brought to the fore a significant
knowledge of our state of paralysis. He said
we are broke. We cannot pay salaries. Some
ministers will merely sit in council. We
cannot speak of infrastructure renewal. We
have been both morally and “materially
vandalised.” Nice phrase. But not words of
inspiration. They are platforms for remorse.
Added to that is that fear of a collapse to
recession. The Central Bank of Nigeria chief
once warned that we are on the cusp of
recession. Then he ate his words, perhaps
after realising he embarrassed Aso Rock and
himself. But Freudian slip is important
because the truth just escaped into the
wind.
Amidst all these, a prominent Yoruba
politician’s kidnap ignited separatist
impulse within a section of the Yoruba elite.
The North lashed back in denial, seeing it as
isolated criminality. In the North, the army
collides in a war of truth with the Borno
state governor, Kashim Shettima, over the
successes in the war against terror.
Meanwhile, the Washington Post writes a
scathing editorial over what it sees as our
army operating as barbarous hordes in
contempt of human rights.
In the Southeast, the Biafra spirit haunts like
a baleful ghost. Arrests and protests reify
questions fundamental to democracy. When
does free expression become treason? In the
Southwest, some jingoists are taking a
federal state for granted and installing Ezes
and fantasizing about them when they
cannot allow them in their own yards back
home.
If the zest for Biafra reawakened is farcical,
are the agitators for imperialist Ezes not
even more terrible. The Nation columnist
Professor Jide Osuntokun wrote brilliantly
on this subject titled: “A Republic of
Thousand kings.”
At the bottom of this, the economy reels.
Many are going out of jobs. We crave
discipline but the child of the priest pants
for bread. When does the country make the
distinction between good forex policy and
good international trade? When is IMF
fulmination neo-colonial and when is our
resistance self-destructive nationalism?
Businesses are supposed to work in a state
of purity but all around them are men in
suitcases who cart billions out of the
country, in spite of the rigidity of the forex
policy.
Now that change has come
All of these remind me of Professor Sheldon
Wolin, the theorists who rescued politics
and democracy from the so-called
behaviourists who looked at democracy
from cold data. The Harvard Professor, who
died recently at 93, proved in his opus
Politics and Vision, and Democracy Inc., the
limits of democracy. He announced that
elections can easily be an illusion after an
era of change is ushered in. He said
democracy can be what he termed “inverted
totalitarianism” in which a powerful few or
cabal lose touch with the mass and still use
the concept of popular sovereignty to hold
on to the reins of power.
So, now that change has come, the
problems should not be allowed to go out of
reach. When Lenin took over power in the
Soviet Union, he doused concerns of a
flagging zeal by inaugurating what he
termed “permanent revolution,” even though
some political scientists have said he was a
counter-revolutionist with his New Economic
Policy.
If the president says we have been
materially vandalised, it is no new wisdom.
If a lot of our money has been stolen, what
is the progress in getting them back? We
need the money. We don’t want a president
who will lament. We want one who will
implement. If we want ministers, they should
be given jobs.
The cabinet is not a talk shop, but a brewery
of ideas that the brewers themselves turn
into frothy fulfilment on the people’s dinner
table. It is still early days for Buhari, but this
is the time to inspire, not give a sense of
soporific retirement. https://www.naij.com/624760-buhari-dont-want-lamenting-president.html
PoliticsAmaechi May Be Removed As Minister - Senator Shehu Sani by fabulous16(op):
Senator Shehu Sani (APC, Kaduna) has
listed the condition according to which
President Muhammadu Buhari may remove
Rotimi Amaechi, ex-governor of Rivers state,
as a minister.
He stated that Amaechi will stop to be a
minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria if
he is found guilty by any capable court of
corruption.
The senator added that this during a get-
well-soon visit to a veteran journalist and
columnist, Abdulkareem Albashir.
Sani said: “ The APC position on corrupt
allegation is that it is still an allegation and
the issue is still in court which the senate
committee should not have entertained in
the first place. In the general sense, we are
duty bound to protect the interest of
someone in our party and the opposition
has the right to object to who ever is
presented.
“In the broader sense, Nigerians and
posterity will judge whether our approval of
Amaechi was a tacit endorsement of
corruption because the issues raised were
not enough to stop his confirmation. But we
must also understand that even if you are
made a minister and you get convicted, the
law will take its course. Certainly if he is
found guilty, he would not continue to serve
as minister under President Muhammadu
Buhari’s administration.”
Amaechi is one of the most controversial
ministers in the cabinet of President Buhari.
The screening of the ex-governor has been
postponed several times by the Senate.
During his confirmation the senators from
the opposition Peoples Democratic Party
staged walkout protest.
Amaechi has been accused to have looted
the state treasury of billions from 2007 to
2015 when he was a governor. source https://www.naij.com/624456-president-buhari-will-remove-amaechi-minister-senator.html
