Politics / Buhari Officially Informed About Newly-discovered Mineral, Checks Out Location ( by idrisa334: 7:24pm On Sep 05, 2016 |
President Muhammadu Buhari has been officially informed about the discovery of nickel, the new mineral resource found in the northern state of Kaduna. According to a picture made public by Femi Adesina, the special adviser to the president on media and publicity, Buhari was presented with the aeromagnetic map and the independent volumetric analysis of the mineral resource. Kayode Fayemi, Nigeria’s minister of Mines and Steel Development, was flanked by the minister of state for Mines and Steel Development, Abubakar Bawa Bwari at the Statehouse. Recall that The Australian, an Australian national news daily stated that a private mining syndicate headed by a mining industry veteran, Hugh Morgan made the discovery of nickel at Dangoma in the north-west state of Kaduna. “The discovery is unusual because the nickel is found in small balls up to 3mm in diameter of a high purity in shallow soils in what could be the surface expression of a much bigger hard-rock nickel field.” This news about the president seeing the map is coming after a certain Facebook user, Jaafar Jaafar shared the post of his friend Rufa’i Dabo, who wrote an interesting post after he visited Bagwai and Shanono LGAs in Kano. The man claims that these two villages are abundant of discovering gold and other natural resources. According to him the only problem is that the locals can only dig a little as they do not have the modern equipment to assist them in mining these mineral resources.

Politics / How Nigeria Can Survive Current Economic Challenges – Okupe by idrisa334: 1:33am On Jan 27, 2016 |
Former Senior Special Assistant to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan on Public Affairs, Dr, Doyin Okupe, on Tuesday, advised the President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government to increase Nigeria’s Value Added Tax (VAT) to 15 per cent, following the fall in the price of crude oil. Okupe, however noted that for this increment to happen, FG must apply justice and equity, where each state of the federation must benefit only from its own contribution. Okupe who took to his Facebook page said: “I am always amazed when people including very knowledgeable and highly placed persons speak of diversification of the Nigerian Economy whenever there is a threat of fall in revenue from crude oil sales as it is presently. “For the avoidance of doubt the Nigerian economy has hither to been significantly diversified to a commendable level. About a decade ago the contribution of revenue from sale of crude to Gross Domestic Product (GDP) was in excess of 60 per cent while its contribution to National income was well over 90 per cent. “However by January 2015, the contribution of revenue from crude to National income has come as low as 68 per cent, while that to GDP was less than 20 per cent. This is the truest incontrovertible evidence of the fact that the economy has been substantially diversified. “This truth is evinced by the fact that the total income from crude sale was about $73billion. (2million barrels×365×$100/barrel). With a revised GDP of $500 billion, the actual contribution is approximately 15 per cent. Diversification does not directly increase government income proportionately as does direct income from sale of crude oil.” VAT increment Continuing, he said, “Since governments worldwide do not do business, increase in government income or revenue can only come from taxation, Royalties,Bonds,licenses and sale of assets. In our present situation, therefore, while we must continue to encourage growth of the real sectors of the economy, government must pay serious and special attention to maximising efforts at tax collection. The The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) collected over N4 trillion in 2015. Many believe this is just about 60 per cent of what is due. “We may also in view of current realities, need to actually increase our Value Added Tax (VAT) to 15 per cent. But here, justice and equity must apply. Each state of the federation must benefit only from its own contribution. That is if N100 billion is collected from Kano, it stays in Kano and 50 per cent is remitted by Kano state to the federation account.” “Our country is blessed with great human resource. We now need to invest in human development programmes, encourage entrepreneurship and encourage small and big businesses to pay correct and due taxes. Nigeria can and will survive in spite of current economic challenges,” Okupe advised. He called on government to pay serious and special attention to maximizing efforts at tax collection. Dr. Okupe, in a post on his Facebook wall, said the government made N4 trillion from tax through the Federal Inland Revenue Services. “In our present situation therefore, while we must continue to encourage growth of the real sectors of the economy, government must pay serious and special attention to maximizing efforts at tax collection. “The FIRS collected over N4trillion in 2015. Many believe this is just about 60 per cent of what is due. We may also in view of current realities, need to actually increase our VAT to 15 per cent. “But here justice and equity must apply. Each state of the federation must benefit only from its own contribution. That is if N100billion is collected from Kano, it stays in Kano and 50 per cent is remitted by Kano state to the federation account,” he said. He explained that Nigeria’s economy had always been diversified in his post. Okupe argued that diversification does not directly increase government income proportionately as does direct income from sale of crude oil. According to him, since governments worldwide do not do business, increase in government income or revenue can only come from taxation, royalties, bonds, licenses and sale of assets. “I am always amazed when people including very knowledgeable and highly placed persons speak of diversification of the Nigerian economy whenever there is a threat of fall in revenue from crude oil sales as it is presently. “For the avoidance of doubt the Nigerian economy has hither to been significantly diversified to a commendable level. “About a decade ago, the contribution of revenue from sale of crude to GDP was in excess of 60 per cent, while its contribution to National income was well over 90 per cent,” he stated.

Politics / We Support Buhari’s Anti-corruption War But It Should Not Be Selective—afenifere by idrisa334: 1:24am On Jan 27, 2016 |
THE Pan Yoruba Socio- Political Group, Afenifere Tuesday asked President Muhammadu Buhari not to make Anti-Corruption crusade as its only agenda but face frontally the nation’s crippling economy. It also kicked against the plan to finance the 2016 budget through excessive borrowing from international financial institutions. Rising from its monthly meeting held at the Akure, Ondo state country home of its leader. Pa Reuben Fasoranti, the group kicked against the sensationalising of corruption by government The groups spokesperson, Yinka Odumakin in a Communique issued and read to newsmen said “We were embarrassed and scandalized by the processes that characterized the presentation of 2016 budget which is unprecedented in the history of our country. “That a budget will be presented, declared missing without knowing another one will surface and then President will now writes on the matter. “If they were mistakes in the ealier budget presented, government should have come out clean and said sorry, we make mistakes and we want to correct the errors. We encourage the federal that this should not happen again in our country, it is embarrassing and scandalous. “But more importantly, having gone through the whole budget presented, we have seen many headings in that budget which suggest that either we are not aware of the situation we are as a country or we are doing more of what brought us to where we are. “They are scandalous expenditure in that budget which cannot be justified which are not rationale and which nobody should think is what we need as this moment. “For instance we are in court prosecuting a fomer NSA, that he was alleged to have disbursed so much money. Now, in this current budget, after we have giving money to all security agencies, we still voted N50billion to the office of NSA. “We have N3.9billion to buy cars for the Presidency, N800million for President Gym. “They voted about N300million to lay cables to drivers rooms and we don’t know what that means in the government. Renovation of villas and the former president renovated the villas. “Today the cost of producing a barrel of oil is $5 more than what is being sold in the market. So how are we going to continue to spend on this frivolities? “We therefore call on national assembly to properly scrutinise every budget line and ensure that we have a budget that shows that we appreciate where we are as country and we are doing proper things in way to bring prudence into the system. “We have noticed that in trying to solve the problem occasioned by the dwindling revenue, the federal government is introducing certain measures. “One, we have noticed the increase in Kerosene price, Which can only increase the hardship of poor people of Nigeria, two we have noticed the imposition of N50 stamp duty on every bank deposit. ” We consider this an anomaly. That a central bank that should encourage banking culture in the country is trying to discourage banking culture. “The excessive borrowing that is going to characterized the 2016 budget which are unhealthy. And for how long are we going to borrow? “All these measures to us, are cleared that the federal government wants to run aways from solving out problems today which is to diversify the economy, by diversifying the economy is not possible without restructuring the country. “We are saying and insisting that to get out of this economy crisis that this nation will not finally crumble, the federal government should immediately consider the restructuring of this country along the recommendation of 2014 national conference. “The last government organised the conference and said they are going to implement the report, since government is a continum, the present government should immediately implement it so that we can create the new corridor of prosperity that will take Nigeria out of the current crisis we are facing. Odumakin said that “Afenifere supports the review of anti-corruption war going on in the country. We support the war, because corruption is evil but we quickly warned that our war against corruption should not be selective, sectional and should be all embracing and compassing. “It should be fought within the confines of rules of law. And the anti-corruption war should not be the only agenda of the government. They should concentrate on rebuilding the economy because we have seen countries that have been ravage by war, Liberia, Serria-Lonne, people took over government there and they started rebuilding the economy. “So we should not turn anti-corruption to the only agenda. Building the economy is important. “The naira is collapsing. Every sector is going down. Investors are leaving our country. “This should attract the attention of the government but not to continue to sectionalise anti-corruption war because ultimately, our experience have shown that anti-corruption takes a long time to win the war. “The last legacy is thing that are being put on ground that is the solid foundation that lay for the economy, while the agencies that are supposed to fight corruption are fighting it. ” Let EFCC, ICPC do their work. The duty of the Presidency is to rebuild the economy and not just the anti-corruption war. The group however congratulate the new Ooni Ife Oba Enitan Ogunwusi and commended the step he has. Taken in uniting traditional rulers in Yorubaland. The group also ” commiserate with the people of Ibadan on the passing away of Olu!adan of Ibadan.Oba Odugade Odulana and prayed that God should give the people of the town. the fortitude to bear the lost.

Politics / Corruption Is Fighting Back, Hard And Dirty – Lai Mohammed by idrisa334: 9:24pm On Jan 26, 2016 |
The Federal Government has expressed its resolve to not abandon the war against corruption, in spite of the fact that the scourge is already fighting back. The government said it would not be deterred in the anti-corruption war regardless of the orchestrated attacks in the media and social media. This was disclosed by the Minister of information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, on Tuesday, while meeting with Abuja Bureau Chiefs. Mohammed said the Muhammadu Buhari-led government isn’t fazed by the distractions of those who are working hard to make sure the anti-corruption campaign is a failure. “No amount of media or other attacks will stop the fight. The pseudo-analysts and hack writers will labour in vain in their quest to stop the train of this anti-corruption fight.” “When I met with the News and Political Editors in Lagos on Sunday, I said, among other things, that the government is aware that in fighting corruption, corruption will also fight back. I also said that those who stole us dry are powerful. They have newspapers, radio and television stations as well as online platforms, and an army of supporters to continuously deride the government’s war against corruption.” “Well, I can tell you today that corruption is already fighting back, and it is fighting hard and dirty. Sponsored articles have started appearing in the newspapers and in the Social Media, while ‘Talking Heads’ have started making the rounds in the electronic media, all deriding the fight against corruption as well as this administration.” “Not stopping there, they have been creating distractions by sponsoring articles in both local and international media to deride the administration’s policies generally, tag the President a budding dictator and even write off his 2016 budget. We know that the sole purpose of these attacks is to distract attention from the war on corruption.” “It is saddening that some otherwise credible voices have unwittingly allowed themselves to be railroaded into the bandwagon of pro-corruption orchestra while some hack writers are struggling to whittle down the impact of the anti-corruption campaign.” “One hack writer even said the disclosure that 55 Nigerians allegedly stole 1.34 trillion Naira between 2006 and 2013 did not trigger any anger among Nigerias! A disclosure that made the front page in over a dozen Nigerian newspapers, played widely in the international media and attracted the attention of the world’s most powerful country and global financial institutions cannot be dismissed with a wave of the hand.” “But the good news is that we are winning the war. Nigerians are now talking more about corruption. Nigerians are now counting the cost of corruption to their lives.” “The treasury looters, who have so much resources in their kitty, and their cohorts will throw everything but the kitchen sink at this administration. But we have no doubt that Nigerians are discerning enough to know the truth which, in the words of President Muhammadu Buhari, is that unless Nigeria kills corruption, corruption will kill Nigeria.” “Recall that in the so-called Dasukigate, 2.1 billion dollars meant for the fight against Boko Haram was diverted to other uses, including over 4 billion Naira for spiritual purposes, 13 billion Naira for Maritime University land, 2.1 billion Naira for publicity and hundreds of millions of Naira for political patronage.” “That explains why we lost many soldiers to the fight against Boko Haram, which in turn created many widows and orphans, in addition to pushing millions of Nigerians from their communities into IDP camps. This explains why the war dragged on for years until President Buhari assumed office and, within just seven months, strengthened the capacity of the military to decimate Boko Haram.” SOURCE: http://nigerianewsnow.com.ng/2016/01/26/corruption-is-fighting-back-hard-and-dirty-lai-mohammed/ 1 Like |

Following a petition by Mr Aaron Kaase, a Principal Administrative Officer at Police Service Commission (PSC), Mr Mike Okiro and five others were on Thursday invited by The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) for interrogation. The petitioner had accused Okiro of diverting over N275.5 million sought from the office of the National Security Adviser for staff training ahead of the 2015 general elections to his personal use. Mr. Okiro however claimed that the training programmes were held in three separate lots for Abuja, Kano and Lagos.
