FG Can’t Borrow N1.1trn To End ASUU Strike – Festus Keyamo
The Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo, on Friday said it was unrealistic for the Federal Government to borrow money to end the months-long strike embarked by the Academic Staff Union of Universities.
He made the comment while speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today.
“Should we go and borrow to pay N1.2 trillion yearly?
“You cannot allow one sector of the economy to hold you by the jugular and then blackmail you to go and borrow N1.2 trillion for overheads when our total income would be about N6.1 trillion. And you have roads to build, health centres to build, other sectors to take care of.”
even secondary schools are being occupied and used by nigerian police force, how can they fund the three tiers of education? they should rather look at WHO to fund their education
Penguin2: A woman has cried out to the public to call out INEC to relocate the polling unit located in Tinubu’s Bourdillon.
According to the woman, thugs make it difficult for those who are not supporting Tinubu or his candidate of choice, to vote their. She claims that was the case in the last election of 2019.
But should a polling unit be sited in a candidate’s place?

MANDIPUTIN: A Peoples Democratic Party stalwart in Lagos State, Babatunde Gbadamosi, on Friday, defected to the Labour Party, declaring support for its presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
Gbadamosi, a former governorship candidate of the African Democratic Party and a former Lagos East Senatorial Candidate of the PDP, made this known in a statement in Lagos.
“I had completely lost hope, especially in the youths of Nigeria, considering how the senatorial bye-elections panned out, after the traumatic events of the #EndSARS.
“However, the exit of Peter Obi from the PDP and his subsequent emergence as the Presidential candidate of the LP, and his brilliant choice of Mallam Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed as running mate have rekindled my hope.
“I am 54 years old, and never in my life have I been privileged to witness the kind of energy, vim, vigor, unity and tenacity of purpose being exhibited by youths of all ethnicities and religious backgrounds in Nigeria over a political candidate..
“I hereby publicly declare my resignation from the PDP and wish all the remaining members well.
“By the same token, I also hereby publicly declare my support for the Labour Party and its presidential candidate, Mr Peter Obi,” Gbadamosi said.
He recounted how he joined the PDP in Ikorodu in 2008 and remained a loyal member of the party, contributing whatever he could to the growth and development of the party in Lagos state and throughout Nigeria, until he took early retirement from partisan politics in 2017.
“I came to recognise that the problems of PDP run quite deep, and their tepid opposition is in fact by the design of some individuals populating the party leadership from top to bottom,” he said.
He said that he was motivated that almost all youths, who were not professional politicians or influencers-for-hire, had been popularising Obi’s presidential ambition.
He said that Obi had over the years, shown himself to be a creative, prudent and frugal administrator as well as a trustworthy custodian of public funds.
Gbadamosi also described the LP vice presidential candidate, as urbane, prudent, practical and principled politician.
He said: “These two share a passion for education and knowledge, with Obi’s documented exploits in the education sector as governor of Anambra and Baba-Ahmed’s direct investment in education as Pro-Chancellor of the highly respected Baze University, Abuja.
“Both share a disdain for graft and believe in exterminating contract padding.
“I find myself left with no choice, when faced with the alternatives, but to publicly throw in my lot with these two fine gentlemen, especially considering that another good Uncle of mine, Dr Doyin Okupe is one of the navigators of their journey and had invited me very much earlier.”

Caleb17: The Nigerian Bar Association, the apex decision making body of Lawyers in Nigeria is set to hold its annual conference at Lagos State. Among prominent Nigerians invited are Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, the Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic (PDP) Atiku Abubakar and the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party,Peter Obi. The APC presidential candidate Bola Ahmed Tinubu was conspicuously not invited to speak at the conference. Several school of thoughts opined that the reason why he was sidelined by NBA in it's annual conference is because he was fingered as one of masterminds of the Brutal Lekki Toll Gate Massacre that claimed the lives of vibrant young Nigerians who were protesting for the end of the dare-devil Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS). Former presidential spokesperson to Goodluck Jonathan, Mr Ruben Abati made this know in his social media handle.

mignone: Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) on Friday gave the Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, notice to quit the government house by 2023.
The quit notice was given over the governor’s plan to return schools to missionaries which was announced yesterday.
The quit notice was contained in a press statement issued by the director of MURIC.
The statement read, “Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State yesterday announced his plan to return public schools to missionaries. We receive this announcement with a pinch of salt. It is a blow below the belt. It is arbitrary, a betrayal of trust, and a most provocative move. Coming at a time Muslim liberation struggle is at its peak, the move is most unwise, audacious, and insensitive. It had better not be. Makinde should perish the thought.
“The governor is acting the script written by the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN). It will fail. Those schools are our common patrimony. He cannot give them out just like that after the government has spent billions of Oyo State taxpayers’ money on adding more, renovating, purchasing equipment and maintaining the infrastructure, paying teachers’ salaries, etc for more than 50 years.
“The idea is to perpetuate the suppression of Muslim children in public schools by claiming that the schools belong to missionaries. These are neo-imperialists seeking all means to remain relevant, powerful, and dominant.
“Yet the so-called missionary schools were built on land belonging to our Muslim forefathers who were deceived by the Christian colonialists into giving out the land ‘gratis’ in most cases. Apart from the land which was given free, our Muslim forefathers also paid tax into the coffers of the colonialists to build the schools. Nobody should try to pull the wool over our eyes. The difference between the colonial government and the missionaries is like six and half dozen. Peter was robbed to pay Paul. The colonialists collected our hard-earned money and gave the missionaries.
“It was the mother of all treacheries when the colonialists gave the schools missionary names after completing the buildings. Not only that, they turned round to bite the finger that fed them by rejecting Muslim children who refused to change their names to Christian nomenclatures. Majority of the Muslims had to succumb. Thus Abdul Rasheed became Richard, Yusuf became Joseph, Ishaq became Isaac and Maryam became Mary.
“Anybody who observes the trajectory of Makinde’s administration will know that he came with the sole agenda of subjugating Muslims in Oyo State to the whims and caprices of CAN. But the Muslims of Oyo State will resist this with every legitimate means at their disposal.
“There must be consequences for irresponsible and reckless leadership. There will be peaceful rallies and protests until Makinde rescinds his decision. The Muslim youths in the state have taken Makinde’s plan to return schools to missionaries as a confrontation. Already, the Muslim Students Society of Nigeria (MSSN) has fired the first salvo. Makinde has miscalculated. He assumes that his very few contract-seeking Muslim business partners control the Muslim community of Oyo State. He will soon know the truth.
“Makinde is in the habit of snatching from the Muslims what belongs to them. Yet he wants Muslims in the state to continue to cooperate with his administration. He lives in self-delusion with his divide et impera as he hoodwinks an infinitesimal minority of Muslim dealers and ignores the real Muslim leaders. With this ill-advised announcement, he has betrayed those few stomach-infrastructure Muslim dealers who always claimed they needed to be near the governor.
“Makinde will soon know his fate. Muslims will teach him an electoral lesson. We expect Oyo governors to take a cue from what happened to Bola Ige in 1983. Nobody plays with Muslim interest in Oyo State and gets away with it.
“Makinde started by toying with the Hijrah holiday which his Muslim predecessor (ex-governor Ajimobi) gave us. He also refused to issue any circular on hijab to date. He marooned his Muslim deputy governor for three good years until the latter was eventually impeached and replaced with a Muslim-by-name deputy. Seyi Makinde’s anti-Muslim agenda cannot stomach the idea of a genuine Muslim deputy governor.
“We hereby give the ‘Eleyi of Agodi’ notice to quit Agodi Government House come 29th May, 2023. The Muslim dealers masquerading as Muslim leaders and romancing with our traducers for contracts will not be able to save him. Makinde’s days in the government house are numbered. He has murdered sleep. From this day to 29th May, 2023, Makinde shall sleep no more. We advise him to start loading his backpack with his most essential commodities from today.
“MURIC calls on Muslims in Oyo State to possess their possessions. We shall all face Allah Yawm al-Qiyamah to report what we did for Islam and the Muslims. How did we meet the Ummah of Muhammad (SAW) and how did we leave it? It is time for Oyo Muslims to decide whether they want freedom or slavery. Those who do not respect and preserve our spiritual heritage must not be allowed to rule us. Makinde must not be allowed to stay in Agodi Government House a day beyond 29th May, 2023.”
how come the presidency is always in the north and waste and you both always run to the south to thief their oil money, are you sane or are you in a different country. can't you both hustle your own economy and be self depent abi who is always fighting to be inside nigeria, are we in the same tribe? even igbo that is a neighboring state doesn't run into the south to suck cock for oil
it is called intricate, u do not expect me to go and marry a yoruba woman wen i am not yoruba, outside sex there are many other characters that keeps a marriage including bonding and cleanliness and there are not every tribe that matches the characters of your tribe including family so instead of criticism you marry from your tribe or race
rather than making noise people should marry from their tribe, high sex drive is associated with tribe and the probability of having many sex is still associated with peoples tribe and bonding. if you want good sex and relationship marry from your tribe else that is intricate and more reason why people don't stay in marriage
is police man a professional course in the university or polytechnic and under what government do the police man fall into is it the executive, judicial or legislative government, what law guides the police man or what law do they operate on?? try to give me reply on this as it is an issue bothering the local arms of government
no wonder the high hypertension rate and even death. corrupt human government will continue to put ban on drugs people use to cure tragic death disease
the easiest way the devil can get into a man is through his sexual lusts. May God never let us be exploited through sexual offers even leading unto death the devil uses sex to get into a man's body
TRADELYN: This unjust sentence of the lawyer is the reason many argue that state policing system in Nigeria will be used by governors against his political enemies.
and the people will be folding arms looking at the supposed governor
what is the positive function of this law schools to the ordinary people. in a country where we are supposed to work and build together people are inside one assembly making noise and collecting money. if everybody is inside law who is going to build the country
what is the function of the nba to the ordinary or lay man on the streets of nigeria or is this another case of being the "judge over us"? as in the case of moses in the bible or another proactive money laundering schemes
HonNL: Some of his provocative utterances as heard in the audio-visual clip are: ‘We are not as stupid as your Muhammad’; ‘Your Muhammad is a sinner’; ‘There is nothing called Allah or Jibril. Muhammad is the one bearing those names’; ‘Go and tell your leader, Muhammad’s brain is dark and he is daft’; ‘Why call Muhammad ‘holy’, He is not Holy Prophet’.
(Akintaro was alleged to have made these statements following the gruesome murder of Deborah Samuel.
a country of christians and muslims how do they manage to cohabitate it is like planting maize and elephant grass in the same garden, how do you expect them to grow together? it is either one grows and the other dies off. who are the unity beggars in a country where there is no freedom of expression and difference of religion. it is better the muslims have a separate country as they are united by allah and prophet muhammad to avoid issues of blasphemy by people of other faith and believe. c'mon allah or prophet muhammad didn't die for anyone
RECs should serve a minimum of 10years to properly monitor and regulate elections else they can't establish democracy, after tenure expiration what other position do they occupy? RECs should not also be controlled by elected political holders
