PoliticsOgun LP Demands Dissolution Of Peter Obi’s Council, Alleges Sidelining Of North by ManirBK(op): 9:20am On Nov 26, 2022
The Labour Party (LP), Ogun State chapter, has demanded an
immediate dissolution of the party’s Presidential Campaign
Council over alleged domination by party leaders of the
Southern extraction.
The party also passed a vote of no confidence on the LP
National Chairman, Julius Abure.
Addressing newsmen in Abeokuta, the State Secretary of LP,
Engr Feyisola Michael, alleged what he termed
“southernisation” of the PCC against the northern interest.
Michael said since the LP presidential candidate, Peter Obi,
and the National Chairman hail from the South, the positions of
the Director General and the General Secretary, should not be
occupied by another southerners, Dr Doyin Okupe and the Chief
Clement Ojukwu.

He said in the interest of fairness and the spirit of federal

be ceded to the North East and North Central.
The state chapter of LP also accused Abure of plan “to illegally
discontinue Ogun State LP’s litigation seeking court order on
relisting of the candidates list by INEC.”
He said Abure plotted hijacking of the case currently ongoing
in the Federal High Court by taking it over from Ogun State
Legal adviser Bar Mawah Monday.
He said “Therefore: We here by passed a vote of no
confidence on “Bar Julius ABURE National Chairman of LP,
Chief Clement Ojukwu National Organizing Secretary who also
double as the General Secretary of the Labour Party

Secretary.
“We also demand the following: That the meeting of National

dissidents through Clement Ojukwu and Bar Julius ABURE
“The immediate dissolution of the entire Labour Party
Presidential Campaign Council to reflect true Federal Character
as enshrined in the constitution so that the North East ,North
Central, National Secretary and Deputy National Chairman
South can all have their constitutional role openly effected
“That the Director General and Secretary General of the Labour

east and North Central since the Presidential candidate and

“The immediate recognitions of the National Publicity

PoliticsBuhari: Kolmani Oil Drill Has Attracted $3bn Investments by ManirBK(op): 3:45pm On Nov 22, 2022
President Muhammadu Buhari has said the drilling of oil at the Kolmani field straddled between Gombe and Bauchi has attracted $3bn investments.

He stated this on Tuesday shortly before he flagged off the oil facility.

The president also said more oil discoveries were ongoing in the Anambra basin, lower Benue trough and other areas of the country.

“This discovery had emanated from our charge to the NNPC to re-strategize and expand its oil and gas exploration footprints to the frontier basins of Anambra, Dahomey, Sokoto, Benue trough, Chad and Bida Basins. Similar activities across the other basins are currently actively on-going.”

“We are pleased with the current discovery of over 1 billion barrels of oil reserves and 500 billion Cubic Feet of Gas within the Kolmani area and the huge potentials for more deposits as we intensify exploration efforts.


“It is therefore to the credit of this administration that at a time when there is near zero appetite for investment in fossil energy, coupled with the location challenges, we are able attract investment of over USD 3 billion to this project,” he stated.

On utilising the Komani field, Buhari said: “As a fully integrated in-situ development project comprising upstream production, oil refining, power generation and fertilizer, the project promises many benefits for the nation. This includes but not limited to Energy security, Financial Security, Food security as well as overall socio-economic development for the country.”

He also said the governors of Bauchi and Gombe States have given assurances of their unwavering commitment and willingness to ensure support and cooperation in these localities as this activity affects the local populations.

Politics2023: Beware Of Peter Obi, Christian Youth Group Tells Nigerians by ManirBK(op): 6:12pm On Nov 20, 2022
The United Christian Youth Forum of Nigeria (UCYFN) has warned
Nigerians to beware of antics of the Labour Party’s presidential
candidate, Mr. Peter Obi, saying the former Anambra State
governor was not what he claimed to be.
At a press conference in Abuja on Friday, the group led by Bro.
Peterson A Daniels as President, accused Obi of using religion to
hoodwink his followers and other unsuspecting Nigerians.
“You have, like other Nigerians, been assaulted by images from the
visit of Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Mr. Peter Obi to
Edo state as part of his campaign for the 2023 Presidential Election.
That visit was marked by Mr. Obi making a pit stop at a night vigil
and a Catholic Mass, where he was seen kneeling down to receive
prayers from the clergy in a series of photographs that have gone
viral.
“Prior to the start of the campaign, Mr. Obi has become prominent
feature of Christian worship centres across the country, through
deals brokered with the overseers of these participating
congregations by his agents. These visits to Pentecostal and
Protestant congregants were made to trend in the media and social
media, ostensibly to frame the LP candidate as a God-fearing
person.
“Sadly, we are compelled to make this intervention today to alert
Nigerians against being misled into endorsing the representative of
the devil as their next president. The charismatic and religious
fervor that that Mr. Obi has been displaying since emerging the LP
candidate is nothing but a facade to hide his true identity: an
irredeemable Catholic fanatic that perverted the faith in a manner
that should have earned him excommunication on account of
making Catholicism appear like a cult,” Daniels said.
ADVERTISEMENT
They further accused Obi of hatred for non-Catholics and Nigerians
of other faiths, declaring that the LP presidential candidate was
unfit to be Nigeria’s next President in 2023.
“In conclusion, the United Christian Youth Forum of Nigeria hereby
warn Nigerians to beware of the Labour Party’s presidential
candidate, Mr. Peter Obi, who has assured his inner circuit that he
shall run a Catholic government if mistakenly elected as President.
“He will exclude Pentecostals, Protestants, Muslims, Animists,
Agnostics and Atheists from having access to the dividends of
democracy as if they are not humans. Yet, our Christian teaching is
not to maltreat anyone on account of these differences. The task
that Christ gave us is to witness to the world, which is the best way
bring them into our fold as opposed to Mr. Obi’s sectarian
fanaticism,” he added.
Meanwhile, LEADERSHIP’s attempts to get the LP presidential
candidate to react to the allegations against him, proved abortive
as multiple phone calls and text messages sent to Dr Yunusa
Tanko, Chief Spokesperson of LP Presidential Campaign Council
(PCC) by our correspondent, were unanswered as at press time.

PoliticsKogi LP Leader Joins APC, Says No Way For Labour In 2023 by ManirBK(op): 3:50pm On Nov 16, 2022
Leader of Labour Party in Olamaboro council area of
Kogi State, Mr. David Ameh, has left the party and led
2000 of his supporters into the All Progressive
Congress (APC).
Hon. Ameh and his supporters were received by the
Kogi State Deputy Governor, Chief Edward Onoja in
Okpo headquarters of the council area along other
defectors from other political parties who joined the
ruling APC in the state.
Speaking during a rally held at the local government
square, Okpo, the leader of the defectors, who is the
funder and political leader of Labour Party in the local
government, said he was an ‘intensed political arch-
enemy’ of the deputy governor whom he had
confronted at several fora.
“But having sat down and did a comprehensive
analysis of the political trends in the country, I have
realized that the Labour party was not going to have a
meaningful headway in the 2023 polls and I have
therefore decided to pitch my tents along with my
numerous supporters with the ruling party.”
Receiving the defectors, the deputy governor who was
elated, said he was happy that the defectors eventually
saw the ‘light of the day’ saying he remained
unprovoked inspite of the consistent attacks of Ameh
and his supporters against him and the ruling party.
Onoja while rolling out the whole lots of achievements
recorded by the Yahaya Bello administration, said he
was more elated when Ameh himself confessed that
when he came closer to him, he found out that he was
not what he was fed with and therefore declared to
work with him.
He, however, assured that Kogi state stands to benefit
hugely if the APC presidential candidate, Asiwaju
Ahmed Bola Tinubu is elected, “He (Tinubu) is the
most notable politician in Africa who has the capacity
to fix the economy and transform the country.”
The deputy governor therefore call on the people of
the state and indeed all Nigerians to come out enmass
and vote for Tinubu and all the APC candidates in the
forthcoming general election.

PoliticsNaira Redesign: Grains Prices Crash Days After Record Surge by ManirBK(op): 6:05pm On Nov 15, 2022
Days after Nigerians woke up to an unusual increase in food
commodity prices, reports show that the prices have now
collapsed across many major markets in the country.
The announcement by the Central Bank of Nigeria to redesign
the major denominations of the country’s currency, the naira,
triggered a rush for grains by people with large amounts of
cash.

The prices of maize, rice, soybeans, millet and others across
the different grains markets hit the roof, creating panic in the
country.
Our correspondents across the states yesterday, however,
reported that prices are now coming down, easing the tension
in the value chain industries. In Kano State, our correspondent
said the prices of grains in Dawanau International Grains
Market were reported as going down.
Daily Trust gathered in the market that a 100kg bag of maize
that was sold at N26,000 last Friday is now selling at N21,000,
while a 100kg bag of millet that was sold last week at
N27,000 is now N23,000 and the price of a 100kg bag of
soybeans that skyrocketed to N37,000 has dropped to
N31,000.
The price of a 100kg bag of sorghum that was N26,000, is
now selling at N21,000.
A grains merchant in the market, Alhaji Danliti Abubakar Gama,
told our correspondent that though they were optimistic that
the prices would surely crash, but it was not as early as it
happened.
He explained that within days after the federal government
moved to redesign the naira, the market recorded a sharp
increase in commodity prices of about 45% which he
described as alarming.
He could not, however, explain the sudden crash in the price of
the commodities now, noting that they are currently monitoring
the trend to avoid losses.
Another merchant in the market, Alhaji Ibraheem Garba,
attributed the crash in the prices of commodities to what is
currently happening to the naira-to-dollar exchange rate.
He said ever since the decline in the exchange rate, prices of
commodities in the market began to crash.
In Taraba, findings showed that prices of grains dropped more
in Maihula, Jatau and Kungana grains markets.
The two markets are located in Bali LGA, about 250km from
Jalingo, Taraba State capital, and is a major centre for farm
produce merchants.
Our correspondent gathered that a 100kg bag of maize which
was sold at N20,000 and N21,000 last week, is now sold at
between N14,000 and N15,000 at Maihula, Kungana and Jatau
grains markets.
Similarly, a 100kg bag of paddy rice which was sold at
N20,000 has now dropped to N18,000 and a 100kg bag of
soybeans that sold last week at N30,000 has now crashed to
N20,000 and N21,000.
At Mutumbiyu, Tella and Iware markets, located not far from
Jalingo, the price is higher than what is obtained in Maihula.
A 100kg bag of maize came down to N16,000 and N17,000
from N20,000 in Mutumbiyu market.
Likewise, a 100kg bag of paddy rice is now sold at N17,000
as against N20,000 and N21,000 which was the price last
week.
Also, a 100kg bag of dried cassava which sold at N12,000,
has now crashed to N6,000 and N7,000 at Mutumbiyu market.
Traders interviewed, however, attributed the crash of grain
prices to the number of grain merchants coming to purchase
farm produce in the area.
Awwal Musa, a trader at Mutumbiyu grains market, told Daily
Trust that within a few days, many merchants have trooped to
the market and made bulk purchases of farm produce thereby
forcing prices to go up.
Awwal said, however, that only a few merchants are now
coming to purchase grains in the markets across the state. In
Kaduna State, a similar situation is reported in the last few
days with a bag of maize, which was sold at N23,000 last
week now sold at N19,000 in markets across the state.
Daily Trust reports that grain sellers at the Tudun Saibu Market
of Soba LGA of Kaduna, and Monday market also in Kaduna,
attribute the crash in prices to low patronage and possibly a
fall in the dollar to naira rate.
Our correspondent, who visited the Tudun Saibu Market,
gathered that a bag of local rice is also sold at N19,000 as
against N21,000 last week while soybeans, which sold at
N35,000 last Monday, is now sold at N29,000.
Mallam Sa’idu Aminu Soba, a grains dealer in the market,
attributed the sudden fall in prices to lack of patronage and
possibly the crash of the dollar rate to the naira.
“Last Thursday, bags of maize and local rice were sold each
at N21,000 each while soybeans was sold at N35,000 per
bag. Today, the price of maize and local rice is N19,000 and
soybeans N29,000,” he said.
At the Kaduna Monday market, our correspondent gathered
that the price of maize dropped from N23,000 to N19,000
while that of millet remained at N30,000.
“It’s true that the prices of grains are falling and maize in
particular dropped from N23,000 per bag last week to
N19,000 today. But millet remains at N30,000 per bag ,” said
Zakari Yau, a grains dealer at the market.
Similarly, a survey of some markets in Niger State revealed
that, a bag of maize goes for N22, 000 as against N24,000
while those of millet and sorghum are sold for N26,000 and
N24,000 respectively.
Customers, however, complained of scarcity of millet and
guinea corn in Niger markets.
Daily Trust also gathered that a bag of beans was sold at the
cost of N32,000 while a bag of milled local rice was between
N45,000 and N48,000.
Some traders and customers spoken to told our customers
that the price of rice dropped this week from N51,000 despite
the rise in demand.
However, the price of grains is skyrocketing in both local and
urban markets in Benue and Nasarawa states.
A check by our correspondent in Benue showed that top on the
list of price hike in the state are rice, maize and sorghum.
Benue and Nasarawa are famous in production of tuber crops.
As at Monday afternoon, a bag of locally milled rice sold at
Wadata market for N34,000 as against a few days ago when it
went for N32,000 per 50kg bag.
Also, the price of paddy rice went up to N40,000 per 100kg
bag.
The price of maize snowballed to N40,000 per 100kg bag as
against N30,000 it was sold last week while sorghum now
goes for N35,000 at some markets at the outskirts of the state
capital, Makurdi.
However, the price of millet remains at N36,000, while sesame
still goes for N90,000 and soybean at between N50,000 and
N55,000.
A trader, Terkimbi Sandra, said the prices of grains have not
crashed but were rather going up by the hours in the state.
A similar situation is reported in Nasarawa State, where price
of maize and paddy rice rose from N25,000 and N28,000 to
N29,000 and N32, 000 respectively.
Sesame remained strong at N100,000 per 100kg bag.
However, observers said with the prices going down in major
markets in many states, other markets are likely to respond.

PoliticsAbuja To Host World Toilet Summit by ManirBK(op): 3:57pm On Oct 28, 2022
Abuja is set to host the 22nd edition of World Toilet Summit
scheduled for between November 18 and 19.
City & Crime reports that the World Toilet Summit is a global
event which will provide an opportunity to bring greater
visibility to the issue of ending open defecation in Nigeria.
It is expected to enhance Nigeria’s capability to be better
equipped towards meeting the target of ending open
defecation by 2025.
The Minister of Water Resources, Engr. Suleiman H. Adamu, in
his address at a world press conference heralding the Summit,
said Nigeria would be much better after hosting the global
event.
He said the country was committed to ending open defecation
because as at 2017, only one local government area was
certified to be Open Defecation Free in the country and now 85
more have been certified.
He said, “It might interest you to note that Jigawa State has
blazed the trail as the first state to become ODF. They deserve
commendation for their dedication.
“The 2022 World Toilet Summit which Nigeria is hosting, is a
unique global platform in which stakeholders, NGOs,
development partners and high-level decision makers would
meet to strategize and address sa nitation challenges,
proffer solutions that will help to resolve the issues around
open defecation.’’
The minister said the hosting rights were granted to Nigeria
by the World Toilet Organisation founded by Mr Jack Sim, a
philanthropist from Singapore.
The World Toilet Summit founded on 19th November, 2001 is
a Non-profit Organization committed to improving toilet and
sanitation conditions worldwide in line with the vision of the
founding father.
Since 2013, the United Nations has been observing November
19 as the World Toilet Day and Nigeria will be the second
country in Africa to host the summit.

InvestmentNigeria Gets $1.8bn From Islamic Bank, Search For Land To Build Headquarters by ManirBK(op):
– Nigeria will be getting a 1.8 billion dollar from Islamic banking for
infrastructure development across the country
– Islamic bank has also revealed plans to build a bigger
headquarters in Nigeria and wants federal government help
– The Islamic Development Bank has 57 shareholding member
states, with Nigeria holding a 8.75 per cent equity
The Federal government of Nigeria will be getting $1.8 billion
(N786.60bn) from the Islamic Development Bank.
This was disclosed by the President of the Saudi-based bank, Dr
Mohamed Jasser, at a meeting with the Minister of Finance, Budget
and National Planning, Mrs Zainab Ahmed, in Abuja on Monday
According to the bank's president, the money will be used to execute
projects across the country.

Speaking on the loan, Jasser said:
“The Islamic Development Bank has approved a total financing of
$1.8bn for Nigeria.
“ This includes $971m in project financing and $288m provided by
our private sector affiliate and $477m in trade operation by our
trade arm, International Islamic Trade Finance Corporation, and
$90m by other Islamic Development Bank Group funds and
operations.”
According to the Punch, Jasser also revealed that the Islamic
Development Bank's portfolio in Nigeria stood at $1.2 billion, with the
bank having completed 35% of those projects and looking forward to
strengthening bilateral and regional initiatives with Nigeria.
He stated that the bank's portfolio included 15 federation states and
praised the Federal Government for its economic diversification
initiatives.
Jasser continued:
“The Islamic Development Bank will support Nigeria’s recovery
from COVID-19, including providing the necessary support to the
private sector to create jobs and revive economic growth.
He cited two key projects – Special Agro-Industrial Processing Zones
Program and the Nigeria-Morocco gas pipeline – noting that the bank
was aware of Nigeria’s potential and opportunities for the private
sector.
Request to build headquarter in Nigeria
ThisDay reports that Jasser also appealed to the minister to help the
bank get a piece of land where it could build in Abuja as the current
office was no longer enough for operations.
He said the bank had three active capacity-building programmes in
Nigeria, including one in the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria, to
support the country.

Meanwhile, each Nigerian is a debtor, owing over N160,000 due to
