The merger was announced in Abuja.

The All Progressives Congress, APC, has announced a merger with the Abubakar Baraje-led faction of the Peoples Democratic Party, tagged ‘New PDP’

The merger was announced at the end of a meeting at the Kano Governors Lodge in Abuja on Tuesday.

Mr. Baraje read the terse communique to journalists at about 11.46 a.m.

The merger means the APC now has its 11 governors and the seven governors who are members of the New PDP; making a total of 18 state governors.

The seven New PDP governors were expected to have a last meeting with President Goodluck Jonathan before taking a decision. The meeting is yet to be held.

The minister was not in the car when the shots were allegedly fired.

The FCT Police Command on Monday in Abuja confirmed that gunmen fired shots at the car of the Minister of Aviation, Ms Stella Oduah in Abuja.

The spokesperson of the command, Altine Daniel, told the News Agency of Nigeria that the incident occurred at about 10 p.m. on Friday.

She added that the minister was not in the car when the incident took place.

Ms. Daniel, a Deputy Superintendent of Police, however, said that the incident was reported to the police on Monday at about 5:30 p.m.

According to her, some metal objects were found in the vehicle which do not look like the conventional bullet.

“The objects will be subjected to ballistic test,” she said.

According to her, investigation into the incident has begun.

Also confirming the shooting, the Special Adviser to the minister, Joe Obi, said that the attack took place at the Ministers’ Hill, Maitama in Abuja.

“Fortunately, the minister was not in the car at the time the attack took place.

“An official report has been made to the police and the police are currently investigating it,” Mr. Obi said.

Mrs. Oduah has been in the news recently over her roles in the controversial inflated purchase of two bullet proof cars by the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority, NCAA, for N255 million; with many Nigerians calling for her sack and prosecution.

President Goodluck Jonathan on Sunday confirmed that he had received the report of a three-man committee set up to probe the role of the minister in the scandal.

The school authorities took the decision following the failure of the ASUU National Executive Council which met in Kano at the weekend to put to an end to the strike.

A statement issued by the institution’s Registrar, Mr. Sam Egwu, said academic activities will resume in all the university campuses on Tuesday.

The statement said, “Having waited patiently for Federal Government and ASUU to resolve the impasse occasioned by the over four months strike embarked upon by the union to no avail, the management of EBSU on Monday, November 26 resolved to reopen the school.

“We therefore inform all concerned that teaching and learning will begin fully on Tuesday, 26th, November, 2013. This is to enable us cover what we have lost to the strike.”

Members of the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) yesterday ended their two-day meeting in Kano with a resolve to meet President Goodluck Jonathan today or tomorrow on the outcome of their parley.

It was learnt that the union could, after the meeting, call off the five-month-old strike, but with a caveat that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and the Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC) should monitor the agreement it has reached with the federal government.

 A source at the meeting told LEADERSHIP Sunday that the union will issue a communiqué on the decisions it had taken on Monday, adding that “we may call off the strike on Monday. It is one of the decisions we reached at NEC meeting. ASUU will meet President Jonathan today or on Monday”.

The meeting was held at the Centre for Democratic Research, Mumbayya House, Kano.

The source said that ASUU had resolved that, in compliance with the directive of President Jonathan at their last meeting with him, they will present the outcome of the meeting to him directly.

He explained that ASUU had resolved that the CBN and RMAFC had to witness the implementation of the agreement it reached with the federal government. 

According to him, it was the unanimous decision of NEC members to involve other parties, especially the financial sector, in the implementation of the agreement.

Other issues discussed at the meeting include the violation of ASUU labour laws by some universities, which have announced resumption dates for students when the strike has not been called off.
