“Restructuring the country will bring out the comparative advantage of every state and our natural resources that are lying waste will be fully harnessed.” By Agency Report A former vice presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in 2019, Peter Obi, has said that political restructuring of Nigeria will boost the nation’s economy and end insecurity. Mr Obi said this on Tuesday at the fourth Adada Public Lecture organised by the Association of Nsukka Professors (ANP) at the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN). He said with restructuring, governors would look inward to make their states productive, while state, local and community police would be set up to tackle criminality within their areas. “It is unfortunate that some governors believe in going to Abuja monthly to get federal allocation from proceeds of oil. “They have forgotten the price of oil in the international market has depreciated and will continue to depreciate. “No developed country in the world depends on crude oil but they invest in their children, agriculture and encourage small and medium enterprises by giving out soft loans and other incentives. “There is urgent need to restructure the country for the economy to grow to a desired level,” said Mr Obi, a former governor of Anambra State. He advised Nigerians to stop misleading others that restructuring is a deliberate plan to divide the country. “Rather, it should be seen as a move to build the ailing economy and restore adequate security in the country,” he said. Mr Obi further said that restructuring would also help to ensure adequate funding of primary and post-primary schools as well as higher institutions. “We should invest in our children’s education, which is greater than any price of crude oil in the international market. “Restructuring the country will bring out the comparative advantage of every state and our natural resources that are lying waste will be fully harnessed to boost the state economy,” he said. He said restructuring would also enable states to make robust investment in agriculture, achieve food security and create more employment opportunities. “In the 1960s and 1970s, agriculture was the major foreign exchange earner for the country. “In the North, we had groundnut pyramids, in the West we had cocoa and the East had palm oil and Nigeria was among the best economies in the world. “Today, the Netherlands as a country uses its exports from agricultural products and flowers to get billions of dollars in foreign exchange to sustain its economy,” he said. https://i0.wp.com/media.premiumtimesng.com/wp-content/files/2017/09/PETER-OBI.jpg A former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi [Photo: Concise News] Mr Obi thanked ANP for finding him worthy to deliver the lecture with the topic, “Restructuring, Security Challenges and Development”. He urged professors and lecturers in the country to use their wealth of knowledge to convince Nigerians on the urgent need to restructure the country. In his remark, Chinyeaka Ohaa, the chairman of the occasion, described the lecture topic as timely and “could not have come at a better time than now the country is going through serious security challenges.” “The topic of the lecture is not only apt but offers (an) opportunity to speak directly on problems of insecurity, weak economic base, fragile democracy, dependence on oil, corruption and unemployment, among others. “I commend ANP for organising this lecture and urge it to explore all areas of life necessary for growth and development of the country,” Mr Ohaa said. Charles Igwe, the vice chancellor of UNN, thanked the ANP for organising the lecture. “What ANP has done today is laudable because, as professors, the society is looking up to you all to provide ideas that will solve their problems. “I commend you all for choosing UNN as venue for the occasion and bringing Nigeria’s finest astute businessman and technocrat in the person of Obi as the guest lecturer,” he said. Earlier, the President of the association, Osy Okanya, a professor, said the group provides the platform for an intellectual discourse on various contextual issues that challenge society and the economy. “In consonance with the mandate and strategic focus of ANP, the fourth Adada lecture topic has been carefully chosen and could not have been more apt, given the heightened fragility of the country. “The lecture today offers a profound opportunity for Nigerians of all hues as it is being delivered by a Nigerian, who has seen Nigeria inside-out and has always provided the best prescriptions on all national issues,” Mr Okanya said. Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State, Chuka Utazi, a senator representing Enugu North District, and Cosmas Ugwueze, the chairman of Nsukka Local Government Area, were among the dignitaries at the lecture. https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/more-news/463855-restructuring-will-boost-nigerias-economy-end-insecurity-obi.html |
By Joe Hemba Nigerian troops on Tuesday seized 62 jerrycans of petrol and three vehicles during a raid on a Boko Haram logistics supply base in Kukareta in Yobe State. The army’s spokesperson, Mohammed Yerima, said the operation was carried out with the help of local vigilantes following a tip off that some members of the community were supplying fuel to Boko Haram. Kukareta town is located about 21 kilometres from Damaturu, the state capital, on the Maiduguri/ Damaturu highway. It was the largest self- established IDP camp in the state with more than 40,000 households before it was closed down in 2018. The statement reads in full: “Troops of Operation Hadin Kai on Tuesday, May 25, 2021, raided a suspected Boko Haram logistics stockpile in Kurkareta town, Yobe State. “Items recovered during the raid operations by troops in conjunction with local vigilantes include 62 jerrycans loaded with Premium Motor Spirit popularly called petrol, hidden in different houses and shops. Three vehicles belonging to the terrorists’ suppliers with registration numbers DAL 626 YE (Kano), GBK 413 GR (Benue) and XA 390 SHN (Borno) were also impounded. “The successful raid was undertaken following credible intelligence that some members of the community are suppliers of fuel and other products to insurgents. https://i2.wp.com/media.premiumtimesng.com/wp-content/files/2021/05/part-of-the-fuel-supply-to-Boko-Haram-.jpg Boko Haram logistics: the impounded fuel “All the recovered items and the suspects are in our custody for preliminary investigations before handing them over to the appropriate agency for prosecution,” the statement highlighted. “The NA remains determined to sustain their offensive operations in the area and assures the public that the Army leadership is committed to achieving the overall objective of keeping the North East and the entire country free of terrorism, banditry and other violent crimes,” the statement revealed. https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/more-news/463947-nigerian-army-raids-boko-harams-logistics-warehouse-in-yobe.html |

"The part that kills me with Lagos mechanics is the fuel. If I had a full tank sef, the car will always always come back empty." By Kabir Yusuf Nigerian car owners, on Twitter, shared bitter experiences they had with mechanics in several parts of the country, The car maintenance business is largely informal in Nigeria with many mechanic workshops being individual standalone businesses. However, the Nigerians that shared their experiences, suggested that while the mechanics may not be working in groups, they share similar traits in cheating or defrauding car owners. “I gave mechanic my car to fix the A/C, nigga went to drop my car as a collateral for his debt,” a Tweeter user, Emmy Walker wrote. “How do you drop an ES350 for a 1.5m debt,” he said. “The man who collected the car as collateral completely refused to release the car. He has chosen violence and was even threatening,” he said “The part that kills me with Lagos mechanics is the fuel. If I had a full tank sef, the car will always always come back empty,” said Ms Jinaidu recalling her experience with a Lagos mechanic. “I started leaving the bare minimum petrol in my car before they pick up the car and the mechanic actually had the gut to complain,” she added. Ayoola Abiola said: “What of Mechanics that remove the catalytic converters from cars that are brought to them for general checkup? Most mechanics are into this practice and unsuspecting car owners will notice a change in the exhaust sound but can’t figure out what’s wrong.” Iyke Kolie tweeted: “I gave an AC guy my car to fix the AC… He decided to change the entire sensor on the dashboard. It turned out he used it to settle another guy whose sensor I suspected he may have damage.” “An electrician sold my brother’s car and disappeared,” another user said. “It was the buyer that was disturbing the electrician for the car docs that saw an old photocopy of NDL in the car and called the no, that was when my brother knew that his car had been sold, though he has since recovered it,” he recalled. A user who identified himself as Oladipo said he “Gave mechanic the ECU of a car to help check for a replacement & gave him 35k for the same,” According to him, the mechanic later suggested that the issue with the car may not be the ECU, that other diagnoses be made. “Ok, return the money; it took 3 weeks for him to transfer,” he said. “Return ECU; stopped taking my calls.” Jamike Toch tweeted, “…one dark skinned mechanic boy called Sunday at Awoyaya , told me my catalyst is bad, that he would remove it and work on it.” “I didn’t know he was lying until I told him to bring the bad catalyst after removing them. He and the supposed catalyst disappeared. Fear Sunday mechanics,” he said. https://i2.wp.com/media.premiumtimesng.com/wp-content/files/2018/08/Pic.3.-Accident-scene-at-Zuba-in-Abuja.jpg Car owners in traffic jam at Abuja-Kaduna Expressway https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/more-news/463806-nigerian-car-owners-share-sad-experiences-with-mechanics.html |

The 70-year-old party chairman was reportedly hospitalised following the incident By Abubakar Ahmadu Maishanu The All Progressive Congress (APC) chairman in Dutse Local Government Area of Jigawa State, Yakubu Ibrahim, was on Monday beaten up by aggrieved members of his party. The development followed an announcement by Governor Muhammad Badaru of the names of party’s candidates for the local council elections in the state scheduled for June 26. According to a statement by the governor’s spokesperson, Auwal Sankara, Bala Chamo was picked as the chairmanship candidate of the party for Dutse Local Government Area. But some members said Mr Chamo’s choice was against the preference of the majority of party members in the council area. The angry members invaded the party secretariat during a meeting, dragged out the APC chairperson and tore his clothes. The 70-year-old Mr Ibrahim was reportedly hospitalised following the incident. The police commissioner in the state, Usman Gomna, told reporters that two persons had been arrested over the incident and debunked speculations that the official was kidnapped by gunmen. The police chief said the incident was just an intra- party crisis. Jigawa LG elections The Jigawa State Independent Electoral Commission (JISIEC) has fixed the local government elections for June 26. In an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Dutse, on Sunday, the JISIEC Chairman, Adamu Ibrahim, said the commission would organise free and fair elections in the 27 council areas. “We have 287 wards in the 27 Local Government Areas of Jigawa State and we have 3,527 polling units,” Mr Ibrahim said, explaining that the commission also had 11,357 ad-hoc staff that would be involved in the elections. “As of now, we have 18 political parties that have indicated interest to participate in the elections and I know others are coming. The main parties are All Progressives Congress (APC), Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and some others,” Mr Ibrahim said. The chairman also said the sale of nomination forms for the office of the chairpersons and councillors would commence from Monday, May 24, and screening of the candidates would follow later. NAN reported that the commission had fixed N500,000 as nomination fees for the office of chairman and N250,000 for the office of councillor. https://i2.wp.com/media.premiumtimesng.com/wp-content/files/2021/02/EeCLEoQWkAEZl0o.jpg Governor Muhammad Badaru [PHOTO CREDIT: @SankaraJgh] https://www.premiumtimesng.com/regional/nwest/463780-lg-poll-party-members-beat-up-apc-chairperson-in-jigawa.html mynd44 |
Juliaann:babe You look good to be true. I can't resist. what's up |
she has gone to collect some dick lessons and when she's done she will reappear. is it not Nigerians girls I know |
newguy1:no. But you can manage o f i l m y w a p dot c o o l. The file size is about 433mb |
owobokiri:i feel like fingering her |
meobizy:i don't mind sucking it. Too fresh for my liking |
At 22, you may have married her when she wasn't ready. A girl her age is still basking in the euphoria of youthfulness. Reality hasn't dawn on her yet. That is why she can be messing around with a male friend. The best you can do is call a family meeting or look for an elderly woman to advice her. |
richmond500:Unfortunately, many nigerian girls don't mature with age. For instance, a 27 yr old girl can be acting like an 15 yr old, not becos she's deformed but becos she refuse to grow up |
dederocs:but she's highly fertile |
