ABOUT PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN Dr. Goodluck Jonathan is the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria since 2010. He served as Governor of Bayelsa State from 2005 to 2007 and as Vice President from 2007 to 2010.His story is the Nigerian story — strong family values, dedication to duty, service to others, hard work and education as the means of getting ahead. Born to a modest family of canoe makers, he worked hard in life and earned a PhD degree in Zoology from the University of Port Harcourt. Before he entered politics in 1998, he worked as an education inspector, lecturer, and environmental-protection officer. President Jonathan has an unwavering conviction that a life so blessed should be lived in service to others and he has demonstrated strong leadership qualities through various initiatives in Nigeria.On 2 August 2010, President Jonathan launched his Road map for Power Sector Reform aimed at achieving stable electricity in Nigeria. For decades, Nigeria has been plagued by blackouts costing the economy billions of Naira on imported generators and production inefficiency. Under President Jonathan, a road map is being executed through an agile privatized power sector.In 2011, President Jonathan launched the Transformation Agenda to refocus the nation and develop critical infrastructures and processes that will help unlock opportunities and growth in Africa’s largest economy. Also, President Jonathan launched the Youth Enterprise with Innovation in Nigeria (YouWin) Initiative which is an innovative business plan competition that harnesses the creative energies of young people between the ages of 18 and 35. The YouWin Initiative is expected to create between 40,000 to 50,000 sustainable jobs by 2014.After rebasing in April 2014, the economy of Nigeria was calculated to be worth $510 billion, far more than previous estimate of $292 billion and surpassing South Africa's $353 billion. This makes it the largest economy in Africa. Also, the new figures lifted Nigeria’s GDP per capital substantially to $2,689, up from a previous estimate of $1,555. Yet, Mr. President remains committed that he can continue to grow this economy at 7-9% annually despite its relative huge size. In January 2014, he launched the most important industrial road map in decades with the Nigeria Industrial Revolution Plan to industrialize Nigeria by building capabilities in light manufacturing, agro-processing and modern technologies.A lover of education, President Jonathan has made it possible that federal universities are in all states of the Federation to ensure that youths have access and proximity to get quality and affordable education. He is facilitating infrastructural projects in railways, bridges and pioneering a new model of governance that brings the private sector into partnerships with governments to build a greater Nation. Mr. President is married to the amiable First Lady of the Nation, Dame Patience Jonathan, and they are blessed with children. Source: TAN

A Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Mr. Femi Falana, has criticised the All Progressives Congress presidential aspirant, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), for obtaining a loan of N27.5m to procure his party’s expression of interest and nomination form for the 2015 presidential election. He made this remark on Thursday in Abeokuta, Ogun State, while speaking at the Nigeria Union of Journalists, Paramount FM Chapel Press Week. He noted that the action of the former head of state was indefensible, stressing that it amounted to monetisation of politics. He said, “It is indefensible for Gen. Buhari to have obtained a loan facility of N27.5m just to obtain a form of intent to contest in the presidential election in 2015 under the All Progressives Congress. “Is he going to obtain another loan during his campaign, because in Nigeria, it costs billions of naira to run a presidential campaign?” Falana, who was the guest lecturer at the event, spoke on the topic: ‘Current Security Challenges: Implication for 2015 Elections’. On the coverage of the 2015 election, the legal luminary advised journalists not to give undue advantage to any candidate, but should give all of them equal coverage, devoid of ethnic or religious colouration. He also advised journalists to be wary of phony politicians who would want to play to the gallery, but should focus on issues. He said, “Journalists must show more than a passing interest on how those aspirants want to manage the economy. The government must address mass illiteracy, corruption and poverty.” Falana noted that the nation was facing security challenges such as kidnapping, armed robbery, terrorism, human trafficking because of the unemployment rate. The Senior Advocate of Nigeria called on the government to wake up and fight the security challenges confronting the nation the same way the Ebola scourge was tackled. “Government gave Ebola Virus Disease attention because it is no respecter of anybody. But government is not conscious of the security of the people because they have security guards protecting them,” he said. The event, which also featured award presentation to deserving members of staff, was graced by the Deputy Governor of Ogun State, Prince Segun Adesegun, the state NUJ chairman, Mr. Wole Sokunbi, and the secretary, Mr. Soji Amosu, among others.

Montreal – The two men accused of carrying out separate deadly attacks in Canada thisweek had recently converted to Islam and wanted to join the extremistfight, officials and local media said Thursday. Both men were killed during the violence, which officials called “terroristattacks,” the first such incidents tied to Islamic extremism ever to take place in Canada. On Monday, 25-year-old Martin Couture-Rouleau, from Quebec, used hiscar as a weapon when he mowed down two soldiers near Montreal, killing one of them, before being shot dead by police ashe emerged from his wrecked vehicle holding a knife. Then on Wednesday, Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, 32, shot and killed a soldier who was on ceremonial guard at a war memorial in downtown Ottawa before storming into the nearby parliament building, where he was shot dead. Though Canada had never been hit by such an attack, authorities knew the country was at risk, and militants have recently made new threats of violence in retaliation for its role in the Middle East. Canada participated in the war in Afghanistan, where 158Canadian troops were killed between 2003 and 2011, and hasrecently joined the US-led military coalition against the Islamic State group in Iraq. Canadian authorities have thwarted several attempted bomb plotssince the September 11, 2001 attacks in the United States, as well asdisrupted terror networks that had targeted sites including the Toronto Stock Exchange, Parliament, and even a passenger train. The crude methods deployed in thisweek’s attacks raise questions on law enforcement’s ability to act against“lone wolf”attackers, who operate outside known militant hierarchies and seem to respond to more general calls for violence from radical preachers online. – Passports confiscated – According to initial investigations, Couture-Rouleau and Zehaf-Bibeau acted alone, and it’s not yet clear to what extent their acts were premeditated. The two men had recently converted to radical Islam, and Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper said Couture-Rouleau was “a terrorist” inspired by Islamic State jihadists. He converted to Islam a year ago and now preferred to be called “Ahmad”. In recent months, he increasingly had espoused extremist views to friends and online. Zehaf-Bibeau had started using the name “Abdul” and had been banned from a Vancouver suburb mosque. According to the Globe and Mail newspaper, he had links to Hasibullah Yusufzai, a Canadian accused of having joined the Islamic State group in Syria. Canadian authorities had confiscated both mens’ passports, fearing they would go off to join IS, ashave another 130 Canadians, according to intelligence services here. In July, Couture-Rouleau wasbarred atthe last minute from leaving for Turkey, a popular entry point for would-be jihadists looking to fight in Iraq and Syria. Zehaf-Bibeau wanted to go back to Libya, a country he’d already visited and where hisfather had fought the Moamer Khadafi regime during the 2011 revolution. Local press have reported that both men were isolated from their families. According to Le Journal de Montreal, Couture-Rouleau’s ex-wife was fighting to keep custody of his three-year-old and he had not seen the child for five monthsbecause of hisconversion to Islam. The mother of the Ottawa killer said her son had been alienated from the family for five years. Source: Vanguard |
