Politics / Akabueze Explains Rising Service Wide Vote by Olaniawo20: 1:00am On Feb 01, 2018
ABUJA— The Service Wide Vote, which rose to N198.7 billion in the 2018 budget, is not only for unforeseen expenditures, Director-General of Budget, Mr. Ben Akabueze, has said.
Fielding questions from journalists and Civil Society Organisations on the 2018 budget in Abuja, yesterday, Akabueze said the vote contained other expenditures that were not agency-specific and armed forces operations, which figures had not yet been determined.He said: “Service Wide Vote is not only for unforeseen provisions. Yes Service Wide vote is for contingency provisions, which amounts are not fully determined but there are also certain items of expenditure that are not agency –specific, that are service-wide. It is then thought that it is important to manage access to such votes centrally.
“There are also some items of expenditure requiring further scrutiny at the time of actual expenditure and approvals at certain levels which are, therefore, intentionally put under service-wide vote.

Politics / We Saw A Billion Naira And Didn’t Know It by Olaniawo20: 1:19am On Dec 07, 2017
The story is told of a past State Governor who went to the House of Assembly to present his annual Appropriation Bill. The Assemblymen wanted to know what was in the budget for them. They were told that a bullion van was stationed at the members’ car park. Some members were dispatched to go and verify if the content was right. As soon as the question was resolved in the affirmative, the Appropriation Bill was received. Before the Governor got back to his office, the news was already on radio that the Bill had received its first, second and third readings and passed. That’s rapid result!
As crude as this sounds, the truth remains that we may not have gone much higher than that level. There is the mistaken impression that the legislature is merely a rubber-stamp on issues of the budget. In reality, though, none of the two branches of government – the Executive and the Legislature – is any less important than the other.
All those calling on the National Assembly to pass the 2018 Appropriation Bill recently presented to the National Assembly, before the end of the year are, indeed, calling on the National Assembly to rubber-stamp the document. This is a wrong call. They are actually asking the National Assembly to pass the Bill as presented; and they could as well proceed from there to insist that the budget must also be implemented as passed. Indeed, they are saying that there should be no role for the National Assembly.
Apparently, no one appears to be telling our functionaries the real truth. We keep dancing around the truth; but year after year, we keep getting the wrong results. An Executive that wants an early budget must learn to return to early presentation to the Legislature. It can’t be done otherwise.
At the risk of repetition, let everyone insist that the National Assembly should quickly give us an Act for a Budget Cycle as sketched out in this column a fortnight, ago, which will compel certain actions on the budget by specific dates. Otherwise, by this time next year, and subsequent years, we shall still be dancing in this same awkward circle.
Essentially, every budget is incremental – for better and for worse. As population increases and technology advances, budget continues to rise. As the increased population and enhanced technology begin to tamper with Nature’s purpose for the earth’s surface, the propensity for natural disasters – earth-quakes, tsunamis, typhoons, hurricanes, etc., also increase in intensity, thus requiring bigger budgets to checkmate them.
The incremental nature of the budget must be gradual. In the First Republic, the budget of the Federal Government of Nigeria hovered around the lower millions. The increases kept trickling in and had a major boost in 1973 when the OPEC intervention drastically moved up the price of our crude oil, which astronomically moved accruable revenue upwards.
Nigeria is today in a race towards the Zillion Naira mark for its budget. In 1981, when this writer was the Secretary to the House of Representatives Committee on Appropriations, we hit the Billion Naira mark; without recognising it. By the time we summed up the returns from the various Committees of the House, we had ten digits. To us, this was one Thousand Million Naira. It took the intervention of Hon. Ralph Obioha (NPP/Imo State), a profound CPA who, prior to his election, was a major player in the American Financial System, to educate us that we had hit the Billion Naira mark.
And so soon, we have been talking of Trillions since the past four Financial Years. Quite frankly, this has been largely in the abstract – we budget in Trillions and perform barely above the Billion Naira mark.
All eyes are today on the Governor of Cross River State, Prof. Ben Ayade, over his Budget Estimates of N1.3 Trillion, christened Budget of kinetic crystallization. There is nothing serious, but everything unserious, about this Appropriation Bill. First, like most Nigerian budgets, the Ayade measure is loud on the Expenditure side but stoically silent on the Revenue side, which runs against the time-honoured accounting principle that for every debit, there must be a corresponding credit.
Secondly, Ayade had a N300 Billion Budget in 2017 and that budget is still limping below the 50% performance level in a State that is defaulting heavily on the payment of staff salaries and pension arrears! Prof should have been liberal enough to tell his audience where he has suddenly hit some uranium mines that will bridge the humongous difference. Certainly, such a man must be hiding somewhere. So, we must credit him with some sense of responsibility and wait to see what happens in the next few months. For all we know, no other State, even Lagos, is attempting this apparently vainglorious move!
You must take a holistic view of the budget. How else do you discover multiple entries in the budget? For example, in the Second Republic, President Shehu Shagari’s, Administration was in a hurry to develop Abuja. It had robust budget for the Federal Capital Development Authority; and still went ahead to make humongous provisions in every Ministry “For the development of Abuja”
– leading one opposition member to exclaim at a point, “Abuja, Abuja, Abuja. We don’t want to be Abujalised”. Every budget has its own tricks.
Why is the Budget today shrouded in secrecy? Time was when the citizen could walk into the PAPER OFFICE and a copy of the budget was his for the asking. Not anymore. We demand greater accountability and more transparency on the Budget. After all, it is a public document.

Health / Husband, Your Wife Has A More Active Brain by Olaniawo20: 9:55am On Oct 08, 2017
Attention men. You may not know it, but your spouse’s brain is more active than yours. Generally, as a matter of fact, women’s brains are far more active in many areas than men’s brains, according to a study published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease.
Before you begin to challenge the study findings, you need to know that the discovery of increased ”prefrontal cortex” blood flow in women compared to men may explain why women tend to exhibit greater strengths in the areas of empathy, intuition, collaboration, self-control, and appropriate concernThat’s not all. There are downsides to this development, because brain disorders affect men and women differently and it could be responsible for making women more prone to certain disorders than men.
The study found increased blood flow in “limbic” areas of the brains of women, which may also partially explain why women are more vulnerable to anxiety, depression, insomnia, and eating disorders.
Women have significantly higher rates of Alzheimer’s disease, depression and anxiety disorders, while men have higher rates of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)., conduct-related problems, and incarceration.
The functional brain imaging study carried out at the Amen Clinics, Newport Beach, CA., compared 46,034 brain single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging studies provided by nine clinics, quantifying differences between the brains of men and women.

Agriculture / Harvest Commences In Edo State-saro Farm, Sobe by Olaniawo20: 10:18am On Oct 07, 2017
All is set for the evacuation of tonnes of maize to the market as participants in the Edo State government’s farm settlement scheme in Sobe, Owan West Local Government Area, have commenced harvest.
The Public-Private Partnership initiative with Saro Agro Sciences Ltd., a leading company in agribusiness, was conceived by Governor Godwin Obaseki to create jobs for thousands of youths across the state.
According to Obaseki, the maize farm is part of his administration’s accelerated agriculture initiative to boost job creation in the state, as between 50,000 to 80,000 agricultural jobs would be created before the end of the year in five local government areas.
Speaking at the inauguration of the farm in April this year, Obaseki said maize cultivation could directly empower several youths in agribusiness.
He explained that the first phase of the initiative targets job creation for 1,000 farmers through the cultivation of 5,000 hectares of maize farms across five local government areas of the state.
“Today is the first step towards actualising the 200,000 jobs promised by my administration. If we invest in agriculture, we can do more than 200,000 jobs in Edo and Nigeria as a whole,” he said.
The Group Managing Director of Saro AgroSciences, Mr Oluwole Adeyegbe, the technical partner for the project, explained that the scheme targeted a minimum of four metric tonnes of maize yield per hectare, which would be bought directly from the farmers.

Politics / Inside NNPC Ibadan Depot Comes Alive by Olaniawo20: 9:50am On Oct 07, 2017
South West region of the country, following the re-commissioning of the Ibadan Depot of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) yesterday.
Group Managing Director, Dr. Maikanti KacallaBaru, who flagged off the resumption of loading operations at the Depot, said the re-commissioning was in fulfillment of the Presidential mandate of revamping the nation’s critical oil and gas infrastructure for the benefit of the citizenry.
“It is one of the key mandates of the present administration to revamp these abandoned assets and put them back to work for the overall security and improvement of petroleum products supply and distribution for the benefit of all Nigerians,” Dr. Baru stated.
The GMD noted that Nigeria’s energy supply security is underpinned by a robust pipeline network of over 8000km used for the transportation of crude oil, petroleum products and natural gas, of which NNPC has the largest downstream footprint with over 5,120km of pipeline network and 21 depots spread around the country.
He, however, expressed dismay that over the years, these critical national assets had become subject of incessant vandalism, theft and sabotage which result in huge loss of revenue, lives and property as well as serious damage to the environment.
“It is rather unfortunate that any time oil pipelines and associated facilities are vandalized, our ability to supply petroleum products to the nation is hampered, and the livelihood of many law abiding people negatively impacted,” he said.
He informed that since coming on board, the NNPC has re-streamed a number of its pipelines, leading to massive resumption of loading operations in Depots within those areas.

Sports / Why Super Eagles Must Qualify For Russia 2018 World Cup by Olaniawo20: 12:55pm On Oct 06, 2017
When the Super Eagles class of 1997 qualified for France ’98 World Cup, they did so with a match to spare; and 20 years later history is about to repeat itself.
But for the Super Eagles to qualify the way their illustrious predecessors did in 1997, under the tutelage of Phillipe Troussier, the famed “White Witch Doctor’’; the team must scale the Chipolopolo obstacle.
With three points separating the two archrivals, with the Super Eagles topping Group B with 10 points and closely followed by the Chipolopolo with 7 points; the Zambians believe that they can close the gap.
The back-to-back victory recorded by the Chipolopolo over hapless Desert Foxes of Algeria, and the 1-1 draw with the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon at Yaoundé; the Zambians are now hopeful of qualifying for the World Cup.
Even though the Super Eagles have all, but qualified for the 2018 World Cup, they must affirm their qualification by beating the Chipolopolo in Uyo; before the final qualifying match against the Desert Foxes.
This is where the tactical acumen of Coach Gernot Rohr must be brought to bear on the Super Eagles as they engage their very worthy opponents; who are hell-bent on knocking the Eagles off their perch.
The likely defensive quartet of Shehu Abdullahi, Leon Balogun, Troost Ekong and Elderson Echiejile must play as a cohesive unit, and maintain their shape against the expected onslaught from the Zambians.
As for the midfield, depending on the combination, Mikel Obi is expected to roam box-to-box, Wilfred Ndidi and Ogenyi Onazi or whoever, must provide a near impregnable cover for the defence line.
Victor Moses and Odion Jude-Ighalo and others in the attack must be razor sharp in front of goal, and make hay when goal scoring opportunities come their way.
The Super Eagles must be focused, must be professional in their approach, must be their “brother’s keeper’’; so to speak; by closing ranks when the team is under attack from the rampaging Zambians.
The team must guard against conceding a goal before scoring their own, because where the Zambians should score before the Super Eagles; we stand the chance of conceding more goals from counter attacks.

Travel / Catalans, Rohingyas And Other Minority Eruptions by Olaniawo20: 8:11am On Oct 06, 2017
MINORITIES , or those who feel they have become minorities, are erupting across the world; English-speaking Camerounians in Africa, the Rohingya in Asia, the Kurds in the Arab world and the Catalans in Europe.
Today in Catalonia, one of the wealthiest of Spain’s 17 autonomous regions, the right to self-determination is no longer a theoretical postulation; it is a practical political struggle being waged in the streets.
independence Catalan flags) during a pro-independence demonstration, on September 11, 2017 in Barcelona during the National Day of Catalonia, the “Diada.”
Hundreds of thousands of Catalans were expected to rally to demand their region break away from Spain, in a show of strength three weeks ahead of a secession referendum banned by Madrid. The protest coincides with Catalonia’s national day, the “Diada,” which commemorates the fall of Barcelona in the War of the Spanish Succession in 1714 and the region’s subsequent loss of institutions and freedoms.
/ AFP PHOTO / LLUIS GENE
The region which had held a non-binding referendum in 2014 with a 90 per cent “Yes” vote for independence had decided to hold a binding referendum on Sunday, October 1, 2017. However, the Spanish Government secured a court order which declared the referendum illegal because it violates the country’s 1978 Constitution which guarantees the “indissoluble unity of the Spanish Nation.”
On this basis, the central government sent in the police to seal off voting centres, seize the ballot papers and block websites and other communication sites that support the referendum. When these measures did not seem to be effective, the federal police was drafted into the region to physically stop the vote. The result was massive violence between the police which used rubber bullets, truncheons and other crowd subjugation methods, and pro-referendum activists. This left 844 people including 33 policemen injured.
Spain faced the moral crisis of using violence against people who just want to vote. Perhaps realising the damage in using such force against people who in any case, are Spanish citizens, Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy tried to rationalise it by saying: “We did what we had to do,” but this was good ammunition for the separatist group.
The Catalan Regional President, Carles Puigdemont argued: “The unjustified, disproportionate and irresponsible violence of the Spanish state today has not only failed to stop Catalans’ desire to vote … but has helped to clarify all the doubts we had to resolve today…The image of the Spanish state has reached levels of shame that will stay with them forever. Today, the Spanish state has lost a lot more than it had already lost, and Catalan citizens have won a lot more than they had won until now.”

Politics / Judge Returns Babangida Aliyu’s Case File To CJ For Re-assigment by Olaniawo20: 7:49am On Oct 06, 2017
Justice Nnamdi Dimgba of Federal High Court, Abuja, on Thursday, returned the file of criminal case against former Gov. Babangida Aliyu of Niger to Acting Chief Judge for re-assignment.
In his ruling, Dimgba ordered that the case file be returned to the Acting Chief Judge of Federal High Court, Justice Abdul Kafarati, for re-assignment to Minna Division of the court in Niger State.
Justice Dimgba held that the application was meritorious.
He made the order following an application by Aliyu’s co-defendant, Umar Nasko, who was the governorship candidate of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2015 poll in the state and ex-commissioner for Environment, Parks, Gardens and Forest Resources in the state.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) had on May 16 arraigned the duo on
an eight-count charge of conspiracy and diversion of over N1 billion ecological fund which the state received from Federal Government in 2014.
Nasko had through his counsel, Mamman Usman (SAN), filed an application seeking the transfer of the case to Minna Division of the court.
Usman argued that the alleged offences were said to have been committed in Niger and insisted that it be transferred to the state.
He said “the basis for the application is to see that the trial is conducted at the proper forum and not out of lack of trust in this court to do justice.
“The prosecution had not placed or shown any evidence before the court of lack of security in Minna.

Politics / State Governors Are More Powerful Than The President by Olaniawo20: 9:54am On Sep 29, 2017
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has said that state governors are more powerful than President Muhammad Buhari or any other Nigerian President.
Obasanjo speaking with
Africanarguments in an up close and a little too personal interview said ‘In fact, state governors are more powerful than the president. That’s the truth’
He also said President Buhari has not done enough on unemployment and recession saying “Buhari has made some announcements. He has tried to keep on going in the area of agribusiness, but not enough. It is not yet enough to prepare the ground for uninhibited growth of the economy, which we need”.
He further said that he believes that President Buhari can do more for the youths area of empowerment saying: “All youth in Nigeria have legitimate reasons to feel frustrated and angry,”

Science/Technology / Japan Kills 177 Whales As Planned In Spite Of International Outcry by Olaniawo20: 11:59pm On Sep 26, 2017
One hundred and seventy-seven whales have been killed by Japanese whalers in the north-west Pacific Ocean as part of an annual hunt, Japan’s Fisheries Ministry said on Tuesday.

The number of whales killed had been previously stipulated for the hunt, which Japan says is carried out in the name of scientific research.

This year, 43 minke whales and 134 sei whales were killed, the ministry said.

Whaling is formally allowed in Japan in spite an international moratorium banning the killing of whales for commercial purposes in place since 1986, and repeated public protests against it.

Critics said that the country uses a loophole in the charter of the International Whaling Commission by claiming that the killings are carried out for research purposes.

He noted that whoever had witnessed war won’t ever opted for it, stressing that there is no way they can embark on secession mission without lives and properties of innocent Nigerians been needlessly lost.
