Politics › Re: NYSC Replies Adebayo Shittu, Says Political Office Not Replacement For NYSC by LZAA: 11:51am On Sep 22, 2018 |
nawtyme: The National Youth Service Corps has dismissed the claim by the Minister of Communications, Adebayo Shittu, that taking political office had compensated for his deliberate refusal to take part in the compulsory national service.
The spokesperson of the National Youths Service Corps (NYSC), Adenike Adeyemi, said the minister’s juxtaposition of holding an elective office and undergoing the obligatory national service is an error. Since PREMIUM TIMES busted his cover as an NYSC dodger, on Thursday, Mr Shittu has been advancing the argument that his election into the Oyo State House of Assembly immediately after his studies substitutes the mandatory service.
Lawyers who spoke to this newspaper on the issue said Mr Shittu’s justification for skipping the scheme is flawed and ludicrous.
Mrs Adeyemi concurred with the explanation of the lawyers who spoke to PREMIUM TIMES on the unmistakable cases of exemption allowed by the law in Section 2 of the NYSC Act.
The referenced section exempted only four categories of Nigerians from the national service.
Those exempted are those who graduated after their 30th birthday, those who have served in the military or the police for at least nine months and staff of intelligence agencies. The last set of those eligible for exemption are persons who have obtained a national honour.
Speaking to Tribune newspaper, the NYSC spokesperson said the provisions of the Act are very clear, and there are no exceptions for any person like Mr Shittu who became a lawmaker at the age of 26. She said “Serving in the National (or state) Assembly is not one of them (conditions for exemption from national service)”.
“You have read the Act and you can see the circumstances where someone is exempted, you analyse it if he [Shittu] was exempted duly or there is a reason why he should have served. But the Act is very straightforward on the grounds for not coming up to serve.
“If you are a graduate locally trained or foreign trained, as long as you graduate before the age of 30, you are expected to serve. Whether foreign or locally trained, the law is the same. Our youths should be rightly guided that if you were able to complete your studies and as of the date of graduation, you are under 30, you are eligible to serve,” the NYSC spokesperson said. Mrs Adeyemi insisted that the NYSC law gives no preferential treatment to Nigerians other than those exempted by Section 2 of the Act, emphasising that “The NYSC was set up to mobilise all eligible Nigerian youths. The Act does not talk about VIPs or children of VIPs. Anyone who is a Nigerian youth, who has a first degree and under the age of 30 must serve, the issue of VIPs or their children does not apply.
“However, if there is any reason why a corps member needs a concession, the corps member applies and concession is given, for example, for marital reasons and on health grounds. Everyone is treated the same and where concessions are to be given, it is treated. So, VIPs or children of VIPs do not come into the Act and we do not look at that,” she said. Legal position
Lawyers who spoke to PREMIUM TIMES on the Shittu scandal said the minister is in the breach of the NYSC law for skipping the national service.
“His membership of the state assembly is not the same as national service,” said Huwaila Mohammed, a Kano-based practitioner. “He needs to serve, because the section of the law dealing with exemption did not include political office holders like him.”
Another lawyer, Abdul Mahmud, agreed with Ms Mohammed’s position, saying the minister “is a dodger who is in breach of the law”.
He said by the provision of Section 12 of the NYSC Act, Mr Shittu ought to have presented his certificate of national service before he was cleared as minister. “The provision is clear,” Mr. Mahmud said. “It says (you must serve) before you get any job in the federation.” Mr Mahmud, who chairs the Abuja-based pressure group, Public Interest Lawyers League (PILL), said Mr Shittu’s “case is worse than that of Kemi Adeosun because he deliberately refused to serve”.
“If we assume as a member of the Oyo House he (Mr Shittu) served, did it not defeat objective 4 (b) stated in Section 1 (4) (b) of the NYSC Act? Members serve in states other than their own,” he said.
The lawyer said Mr Shittu should be arrested immediately by the police and made to face the law. “All positions he has held are illegal and he should return all monies he earned from those posts to government coffers,” Mahmud said

make no mistake tomorrow election will be won by apc no matter how pdp tries. it's unfortunate but truth they'll be quick to deceive their fellow so called yeroba Christians that yerobas are one but their actions and inactions Says otherwise they value the northerner Muslims more than their so called yeroba Christian brothers and as a yeroba Christian if you dare go against their agenda you're finished they'll continue bullying you till you succumb. i just pity my yeroba Christian brothers who still believe their lies of one yeroba and they keep expanding and boldly pushing their agenda when you ask questions they'll quickly tell you that Ambode is a Christian in 2015 people where accusing apc of being a religious bigot party. Tinubu as a smart man decided to front Ambode to make it neutral. he knew that he'll still remove Ambode like he's doing now. they just desperately need power then. the same Ambode that they seize every opportunity to praise is now as incompetent as Buhari and Yahaya Bello mark my words Ambode will be removed and even if he returns he'll just be a ceremonial governor with Tinubu 100% incharge. yeroba ronu oooooo wake up my yeroba brothers immigrants and invaders are eating deep into your tribe.

Education › Re: KWASU Students Cry Out Against Extortion By School by LZAA: 9:29pm On Sep 21, 2018 |
boi21: https://www.informationng.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/kwasu-post-utme-2018-eligibility-and-registration-details-out.jpg
The students of Kwara State University have a reached their boiling point after consistent and dogged extortion of money by the school authorities.
These grievances were penned in a new viral message written by a student of the school who has chosen to remain anonymous. Read the message below:
It is so saddening that the so-called World Class University is a nightmare for its students.
Kwara State University has been for a while now, extorting its students in a way that nobody dares complain consecutively for three years nows, the school has been adding minor fees, which students don’t see the essenc, on the school portal.
These fees are still paid by students who still suffer from the bad Administration of the school. now, the nightmare has gotten to it’s peak as final year students, who according to the school tradition can opt for hostel exemption, are forced to pay for hoatel a which are not available.
At the beginning of the 2018/19 academic session the school developed a new portal and student’s had to register themselves again on that portal! Isn’t Kwasu a World Class University?New fees including Gymnasium later turned Fitness fee, E learning fee, Community Development Fee, among many others that are department based, were added to the so-called school fees.
These fees are made made compulsory but if this is put to rational thinking, is it everybody that goes to the gym? What E-learning methods at the peak the school brought to service of what use is the community Development fee when the school Community- Malete is under Developed while students paid all these fees. Because they have no choice.
Now the biggest fraud of an academic institution is that students paid for hostels on their portal and these same hostels can’t contain all the students. A lot of people have cried out that they paid for hostels of 80 thousand Naira but are allocated to hostels worth below that. Isn’t that a fraud??
Recently a memo was passed that all final year students must pay for hostels within a week.
These hostels are virtually not available but student’s still have to pay for it on their portal, go for clearance which takes forever, if they don’t want to lose their studentship. Is this Normal? After Paying Outrageous School fees? These hostel don’t even have enough facilities.
Private hostels are even better than off campus school hostels in all areas not even at the moment wherex hostels meant for 2 bed spaces have been converted to 4 . Yet, Students are Silenced; they fear they might lose their studentship.
Students are now Frustrated to the point of Crying out loud to the public to help their Souls ….
Kwasu has been extorting them silently while the public think the School is a World Class University..
This is written with great hope that the right authority see it as “KWASU EXTORTION” is now beyond what student’s can bear…… #REBROADCAST PLEASE

lawbabs: Oga read details before jumping to your keyboard. From Ekiti, evidence shows that PDP and APC were buying votes at the polling stations. The way it worked is once u get to the booth (cubicle), you will snap your ballot paper to show who u thumbed for, and then collect your money from the party agent.
This is the reason for the ban on bringing in your phone to the booth.
Unfortunately, you lot will always act before you read. Typical Nigerian! No actually it's to stop undercover reporting which exposes rigging Thanks to social media nobody waits for NBC controlled stations for news anymore Even abroad newspapers are almost fading out(paperback of course  ) |
Politics › Re: OSUN 2018: Mobile Phone; INEC Make Clarification by LZAA: 8:58am On Sep 19, 2018 |
engineerboat: The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) said it was not banning the use of Smartphone around the polling unit areas, but the moment a prospective voter entered voting cubicle to cast his or her vote.
The Chief Press Secretary to INEC Chairman, Rotimi Oyekanmi, made the declaration in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Wednesday in Abuja.
He stated this while reacting to the statement issued by the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Uche Secondus, condemning the decision of INEC to ban the use of smart phones at polling booths.
Mr Oyekanmi said Nigerians were fully aware of the challenge of vote-buying and selling that reared its ugly head in recent elections.
He said that had prompted many stakeholders to call on INEC to devise innovative ways to tackle the problem.
“In consultation with other stakeholders, the Commission came up with new measures to solve the problem, one of which is to disallow the use of smart phones and other electronic devices in the voting cubicles on election day.
“In other words, INEC is not banning phones around the polling unit area, but the ban takes effect from the moment a prospective voter collects his or her ballot paper and enters into voting cubicle to thumb print and thereafter drop the folded ballot paper into the ballot box.
“After that, the voter can have access to his or her phone.”
Mr Oyekanmi urged Nigerians to disregard any attempt by any individual or group to politicise what was purely a preventive measure.
Mr Secondus had, in a statement by his Media Adviser Ike Abonyi on Tuesday in Abuja, alleged that the decision was to perfect rigging formula for the ruling All Progressives (APC).
