Forgery case: No respite for Saraki, Ekweremadu

The Senate Unity Forum (SUF) yesterday denied withdrawing forgery of the Senate Standing Orders case against Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki and his deputy, Ike Ekweremadu from an Abuja High Court.
On Tuesday, reports said Justice Ademola Adeniyi of the Federal High Court struck out the case and also stopped further hearing on the matter after the SUF, loyal to Senator Ahmad Lawan, withdrew the suit.
But yesterday, counsel to the SUF, Mamman Mike Osuman (SAN), described as “erroneous and mischievous” a report that his clients had withdrawn the suit.
In a statement issued in Abuja, Osuman reiterated that suit no: FHC/ABJ/CS/647/2015 and dated July 24, wherein “the purported elections of Saraki and Ekweremadu were challenged,” filed by Senator Anthony Adeniyi, has been withdrawn.
Osuman contended that “oblivious of the existence of the above suit, he, having been briefed, filed yet, another civil suit with an originating summons: FHC/ABJ/CS/651/2015. The above particularised suit differs in contents as can be distilled from their respective grounds, reliefs sought, affidavit evidence, parties and declarations sought.”
He insisted that it was the first suit filed by Senator Adeniyi, who served in the Seventh Senate, that was withdrawn and not that filed by serving Senators including Suleiman Hunkuyi, Kabir Garba Marafa, Abu Ibrahim, Robert Ajayi Boroffice and Gbenga Ashafa.
“Despite the legal possibility that the suit discontinued could be re-filed, the media should have been more specific about the case withdrawn…Contrary to the misinformation put out there, we hereby confirm that the originating summons in suit No:FHC/ABJ/CS/651/2015 filed at the instance of the above-named Senators against Saraki, Ekweremadu and the National Assembly.”
Osuman insisted that the prayers sought in the originating summons still persist; which is that the elections which brought Saraki and Ekweremadu are “illegal, irregular and non-sustainable because the Senate Standing Orders (2011) were not amended in the manner stipulated by Rules 110 of the 2011 Senate Standing Orders to produce the purported document titled: Senate Standing Orders 2015 (as amended).http://sunnewsonline.com/new/forgery-case-no-respite-for-saraki-ekweremadu/

The Federal Government may recoup its money from debtor power distribution companies by calling on their bank guarantees.

This, it was gathered, had been brought before Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, who is the Chairman of the National Council on Privatisation.

Mid last month, the Federal Government ordered the power distribution firms to remit the outstanding amounts for capacity and energy invoiced against them since February before the close of business on July 24, 2015.

But two weeks after the expiration of the ultimatum, the affected power distribution companies have yet to comply with the directive.

Impeccable sources at the Federal Ministry of Power and the Nigerian Bulk Electricity Trading Company Plc told our correspondent on Thursday in Abuja that the Federal Government had through the NBET written to the Discos and their various banks notifying them of the intention to call on their respective bank guarantees.

A top management official of the NBET said the decision had not been implemented because the vice president recently held a meeting with operators in the sector and the issue was discussed.

The official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the subject, said, “We have written to the Discos and we have notified the banks that we intend to call on the guarantees. But how much of the guarantees should we call on is something that we are evaluating. But I can tell you that there have been some meetings at the highest level of government, where the Discos are consulting with the vice president, the Permanent Secretary of the Federal Ministry of Power and the Chairman of NERC.

“We also attended that meeting. And due to that intervention, we have to see how the outcome of that meeting goes. So, that’s really why we have to wait. The Chairman of the NCP is the vice president and he is serious about this issue. We have brought out this issue of poor remittances as one of the cases before him. So, we have to wait for the conclusion of that meeting to know what next to do.”

Another source at the Power ministry told our correspondent that when the Transitional Electricity Market was declared, the expectation was that all the Discos would make 100 per cent remittance to the government.

The Managing Director, NBET, Mr. Rumundaka Wonodi, explained to our correspondent that it was important for the Discos to remit funds to the government now that power generation was gradually improving.

He said their failure to make stipulated remittances might result in a fall in power generation and that the government might not have enough funds to pay for generated electricity

“Generation is coming up and we need to be sure that money is being transferred from the distribution to the generation companies to incentivise generation. The gas suppliers are ramping up gas to the power industry; if the money does not get to the generation companies and they do not pay their suppliers, we may see supply falling,” Wonodi added.

Meanwhile, the Transmission Company of Nigeria has announced the attainment of an all-time maximum energy of 101,088 megawatt-hour wheeled through the national grid in a day.

The TCN said in a statement signed by its General Manager, Public Affairs, Mrs. Seun Olagunju, that the feat was recorded on Wednesday, August 5, 2015.

The company’s previous highest wheeled energy of 99,450MWH was attained on October 31, 2014.

The former President who described the immediate-past ruler of Ibogun, Oba Isaac Ojelade (Gbadegunte 1) who joined his ancestors recently as a conscientious, hardworking, kind man during his lifetime,said the absence of a king in Ibogun has adversely affected the
development in the town.
According to him,he was my childhood friend, we went to the same elementary school in Ibogun Town, before we both left Ibogun for greener pasture, but, he died due to his health limit.
He however, expressed his displeasure over what he described as “irrelevant and unnecessary attitude” of some monarchs on power tussle, saying, “the crowns on the kings’ heads are not different from each other, it is only the landmark that is superior to each other.
Speaking earlier, the Olowu of Owu kingdom, Oba Dr. Adegboyega Dosunmu urged the Council of Chiefs to maintain peace and unity being enjoyed in the town.
Speaking on behalf of the Chiefs, Olootu of Owu and Balogun in General of Ibogun Land, Chief Bankole Ogo-Oluwa drew the attention of the
leaders to the issues of building a befitting Palace for the Monarch.
He pleaded that building a palace was necessary, saying, council of chiefs could always have their meeting at the palace.

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), said Bayelsa governor, Seriake Dickson and former governor of the state, Diepreye Alamieyeseigha, were never sent out of PDP Fact Finding Committee meeting in Bayelsa. This is contained in a statement signed by the PDP National Vice Chairman, South-South and Secretary, Dr Cairo Ojougboh, in Abuja on Wednesday.

It stated that the clarification was necessary following false media reports that the two politicians were sent out of the party’s peace meeting at Otueke, Bayelsa, on Aug. 1.
“I, Ojougboh on the instruction of Dr Haliru Bello, the Chairman Board of Trustee (BOT), who is also the Chairman of the committee, hereby affirm that at no time were these two great party men asked out of the meeting.
“The committee met with the governor and State Exco on one hand, the former President Dr Goodluck Jonathan and the aggrieved party members on the other hand separately,” Ojogboh said.

It stated that the committee had a very good outing which resulted in the recall of the suspended and expelled party members in Bayelsa.
“The recalled members were pleased to return to the party.” “The party wishes to state that this misinformation is the hand work of the All Progressives Congress (APC), as they are afraid of the outcome of the reconciliation in the party.
“We, therefore, urge the PDP Bayelsa, to discountenance these mischief makers, bind and bond properly as we move to retain Bayelsa in the forthcoming gubernatorial election,” it stated.
