₦airaland Forum

The Independent National Electoral Committee has asked the All Progressives Congress to fill the vacuum created by the death of its Kogi State governorship election candidate, Abubakar Audu, in order to continue with supplementary election. Mr. Audu died just as INEC was collating the results of the November 21 election, in which the late APC candidate was leading. In a statement signed by the secretary to the commission, Augusta Ogakwu, on Monday, INEC announced it would allow the conclusion of the election process by conducting supplementary election in the remaining 91 polling units where election was cancelled. The supplementary election will hold December 5, INEC announced.

MTN's pleas for leniency following a hefty fine in the country have suffered another setback after the Nigerian Governors’ Forum (NGF) insisted the company pays the penalty. The governors body argued the Nigeria Communications Commission's decision to impose the record N1,04 trillion (US$5,2 billion) was justified.
NGF disclosed its position in a communique issued at the end of its meeting in Abuja. The governors also called on the Federal Government to expedite action in compelling the MTN to pay the fine. The forum commended the regulatory agency for its strict compliance and enforcement of the law with regards to the fine issued to MTN and advised the Federal Government to ensure prompt and full payment.


“Hence the MTN has accepted that they committed the offense and has apologized and they are looking for leniency," read the communiqué signed by NGF Chairman and Governor of Zamfara State, Abdulaziz Yari. "We, the governors forum decided to support the NCC to abide by the laws of the land and the laws of our land do not give leniency to deliberate offence to our nation."
NCC recently fined MTN for failure to meet a deadline to disconnect 5,2 million unregistered subscribers. Following the fine imposed on the firm, its Chief Executive Officer Sifiso Dabengwa announced his resignation last week. The network operator records show has already lost about 24 percent of their share value since the fine was made public. Appeals for a reduction of the fine have been unsuccessful.

The Nigerian Air Force, NAF, on Thursday said the air component operation of “Operation Lafiya Dole” hit a “mass gathering” of Boko Haram terrorists at Wulge area of Borno State. The air component commander of the theatre operation, “Operation Lafiya Dole”, Isiaka Amao, said this while briefing journalists in Maiduguri on Thursday. “The air component struck a mass gathering of Boko Haram terrorists and their leaders at Wulge. “Report received after the strike was that it was a huge success as many terrorists were killed,” Mr. Amao said. He said NAF also sighted and neutralised terrorists’ vehicles in Kunshe town. The commander also said NAF destroyed Boko Haram’s logistics, vehicle workshop and a weapon storage facility after successful interdiction missions on their Sambisa forest hideout. Mr. Amao, an air commodore, said NAF also destroyed a bomb-making factory in the forest. “The air component has continued to intensify its air effort in support of the ground troops. In October, over 40 interdiction missions with over 80 per cent success were carried out. “Just to mention a few, we have in the month degraded the terrorists’ logistics in the Sambisa forest,” he said. Mr. Amao said the air force also destroyed two suspected terrorists’ camps in the forest. “The continued air strikes have significantly degraded the capabilities of the terrorists. “Likewise, two terrorist hideouts in Sambisa were destroyed,” he said. Mr. Amao, however, announced that NAF lost one of its pilots, Ebitimi Owei, during the month. “On a sad note, we lost a colleague, Flight Lt. Ebitimi Owei and a platform during one of the missions. May his gentle soul rest in peace,” he said. Mr. Amao said the death of Mr. Owei would not affect the morale of officers engaged in the operation. He said NAF also intercepted and destroyed a boat carrying fuel to the terrorists along Nigeria-Cameroon border. “Other armed missions were carried out in Geidam, Gamboru, Ngala, Mafa, Kirenowa and Banki towns, among others. “These missions were aimed at identifying and destroying opportunity targets and denying terrorists freedom of action,” the commander said.

The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) Wednesday night said it had reached an agreement with oil marketers to end scarcity of petrol which has since resulted in the noticeable queues in major cities across the country. The corporation in a statement from its Group General Manager Public Affairs, Ohi Alegbe, in Abuja stated that the commitment of oil marketers to support measures put in place by the federal government to restore sanity to fuel supply and distribution condition will within days ensure that the scarcity ends. It explained that at the end of a strategy session convened by the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, to address the fuel situation, members of the Major Oil Marketers Association of Nigeria (MOMAN), Depot and Petroleum Products Marketers Association (DAPPMA) and the Jetty and Petroleum Tank Farm Owners of Nigeria (JEPTFON), agreed to end the fuel queues as soon as possible. Kachikwu was quoted in the statement to have asked the marketers to set up proactive mechanism to guarantee unimpeded distribution of petroleum products across the country. He also pledged to eliminate all bottlenecks to fast track the process, adding: “We have gotten DPR, PEF and PPPRA to be a bit more flexible with the rules to allow for more movement of trucks and products massively.” The statement further said the Executive Secretary of MOMAN, Femi Olawore, who spoke for the association, stated that the major stakeholders are willing and ready to work with the ministry and NNPC to restore normalcy to the fuel situation. “For us, there is only one thing that we know how to do and that is to sell petroleum products in accordance with the law. It is just a matter of few days before we get to normalcy,” Olawore said. He also noted that MOMAN would never do anything is against prevailing regulations on the supply and distribution of petroleum products. Also, Dapo Abiodun who spoke for DAPPMA, pledged their commitment to work towards the achievement of the government’s objective of ensuring free flow of petroleum products across the country. Equally, the Chairman of JEPTFON, Ifeanyi Uba was quoted to have pledged the readiness of the petroleum tank farm owners to support the initiative. Uba also called for government assistance in clearing the perennial traffic at the Apapa loading gantries

Been a lover of information and trends, I'd always check Google and most time, I'd be referred to Nairaland.
I checked in at nairaland once but called it wack and change my search box to ask,binge and yahoo.
So one day i was bored and logged onto Nairaland and i saw a thread... How some people became nairalander... Or something like that... Also saw a very hilarious joke but couldn't comment.
