 Politics › FG Pleads With Ex-militants Over May Allowances by Rizmo(op): 1:54am On Jun 04, 2015 |
ABUJA—The Presidential Amnesty Office has appealed to former agitators in the Niger Delta to be calm and eschew any act that would disturb the peace of the region. The Amnesty Office, in a release by the Head of Media and Communications, Mr. Daniel Alabrah, said the appeal became necessary following the apprehension caused by the delay in the payment of the May 2015 stipends and in- training allowances to onshore and offshore beneficiaries of the programme. It explained that the delay was occasioned by the ongoing transition process at the federal level. It, however, assured beneficiaries that the funds for May stipends and other allowances had been released and was intact, but that the office was awaiting the required directive for disbursement in the absence of a substantive chairman of the programme or a Special Adviser to oversee the programme. It urged the former agitators to reciprocate the good gesture of President Muhammadu Buhari, who in his inauguration address on May 29 assured of investing heavily in the programme, by maintaining the peace at this time. It said: “This is a transition period. So it is important for citizens, especially the former agitators, to be patient with the new government, which needs time to settle down to the serious business of governance.” The office also dismissed as untrue an allegation by some former agitators that the Director of Finance and Accounts, Mr. Peter Ayoola, was planning to divert funds meant for beneficiaries, saying such act was impossible given the strict accounting system in place at the federal level. source: linkis.com/www.vanguardngr.com/bGPjE

| Education › Techno Offers Scholarships To Pupils In Lagos by Rizmo(op): 1:43am On Jun 04, 2015 |
AS a way of contributing to the general wellbeing of Nigerian children, smartphone maker, Tecno Mobile has offered scholarship to three primary school pupils in Lagos state. Beneficiaries of the scholarship, worth N100, 000 each, are Adebanji Ayomide of Royal Kriston College, Daniela Ajayi of Corel Peak School, and Martins Aneleba of Masuvic Glory School. They emerged winners of the “Talent Boom” contest, which was part of the activities to mark the 2015 Children’s Day celebration. The competition featured students from 28 primary schools in a supremacy battle to win the much- coveted prize. The “Talent Boom” is part of Tecno’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), and a diversification towards educational support. The firm also provided educational materials and stationery to select public schools. They are Ijaiye Okokoro Primary School; Tonia Primary School; Ebenezer Primary School, and Meiran Memorial School. In his remarks, marketing executive of the sponsoring outfit, Mr. Ugochukwu Richard, said the yearly event was the firm’s way of helping to improve the standard of education in Nigeria and encouraging brilliant students in the society. He said, “Tecno is not only about buying and selling. We have identified the need to improve the standard of education that is why we decided to sponsor this event every year to mark Children’s Day. In this country where we have several talented people, there are several students who do not have opportunities to excel despite their gift.The scholarship that we give them will go a long way in their life and will also convey a message on the importance of hard work and reading.” “The ‘Talent Boom’ is a great idea that everyone will want to be a part of. Our theme for this year is ‘Give the Children a Future’. That is why Tecno is supporting the children morally and academically. We are glad that three students won the scholarship. source: www.ngrguardiannews.com/2015/06/tecno-offers-scholarship-to-lagos-pupils/ |

Chairman of Karu Local Government Area of Nasarawa State, Godwin Chindo, Saturday, slumped and died in his office while awaiting the arrival of diplomats from Venezuela. “My boss was preparing for the visit of the diplomats from Venezuela, when he slumped. He died before his aides could reach the nearby hospital,” Alhassan Mohammed Nasir, the local government council information officer told Daily Trust by night. He said his boss died at about 10:30am, while rushing to dress up to receive the state deputy governor, Silas Agara, who was on his was to make up part of the government delegation to receive the diplomats. Venezuelan Vice Minister for Africa Affairs, Mr. Jorge Arreaza, led a delegation to the area to commission a school built and donated to the council by his country’s embassy in Abuja. “My boss was hale and hearty when he showed up in the morning to supervise preparations for the visit of the foreigners. He made sure everything was in place to receive the deputy governor, and the Venezuelan diplomats. “Satisfied that all arrangements had been made, he retired to his office. But a call came in, informing him that the deputy governor was close to Karu. So he rushed for his shoes, but he couldn’t wear them. He screamed, still bending and holding his stomach, and called for help,” Nasir said. He said the late council boss’ condition worsened within seconds, making him weaker. “He couldn’t even explain himself. He was rushed to the hospital, but he died on his way,” Nasir said. He said doctors at the hospital confirmed he died before reaching there. The deceased corpse was taken to Abuja, where it was deposited in a mortuary. Chindo was sworn into office on March 24, last year, after his election as the first democratic leader of the area since 2008. source: www.dailytrust.com.ng/sunday/index.php/news/20900-nasarawa-lg-chair-slumps-dies-in-office |
| Politics › President Buhari Annual Salary by Rizmo(op): 2:03pm On May 30, 2015 |
Nigeria’s new president, Muhammadu Buhari, and his deputy, Yemi Osinbajo, will earn annual basic salaries of N3, 514, 705 and N3, 031, 572.50 respectively, according to the information on the website of the Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission. The RMAFC is statutorily empowered by Section 32 (d) of Part 1 of the Third Schedule of the Constitution to determine the remuneration appropriate for political office holders. Apart from the salaries, the president is entitled to various regular allowances like: Hardship, 50 per cent of the basic salary – N1, 757, 350.50; consistency – 250 per cent, N8, 786, 762.50. Other regular allowances like motor vehicle fuelling and maintenance, special assistant, personal assistant, domestic staff, entertainment, utilities, security and Newspapers and periodicals are to be provided by the government – not paid for. Allowances like accommodation, furniture, and duty tour allowance (per night), estacode (per night) and medical allowances are also to be provided as requested. The allowances are paid periodically, some monthly, a few once in four years. Duty Tour Allowance and Estacode depend on travels. For instance, furniture allowance to other cadre of officials, like ministers and the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, is given once in four years. The President and Vice President are not paid furniture allowance as they are provided for. When all allowances payable each month are added, President Buhari will take home N1, 171,568.33 each month, and N14, 058, 820.00 yearly. Vice President Osinbajo will receive N1, 010, 524. 17 monthly, and N12, 126,290.00 per annum. Details of Allowances The president’s severance gratuity is N10, 544, 115, that is 300 per cent of basic; he is entitled to a leave allowance of N351, 470. 50, (10 per cent of basic salary) and an optional motor vehicle loan of N14, 058, 820, at 400 per cent to be repaid before the expiration of the president’s tenure. Mr. Osinbajo will also get allowances such as motor vehicle, feeding and maintenance, special assistant, personal assistant, domestic staff, entertainment utility, security, newspaper and periodicals. While the number two man’s hardship, consistency, severance gratuity and leave allowance are at N1, 515, 786.25; N7, 578, 931.25; N9, 094, 717.50 and N303, 157.25 respectively. He will also receive a motor vehicle loan at 400 per cent of his basic salary which is N12, 126, 290; to be repaid at the expiration of his tenure. The salaries and allowances are drawn from the Consolidated Revenue Fund. The current salary structure and allowances were fixed by the RMAFC in 2007. Before the review, the basic annual salary of the then president, Olusegun Obasanjo, was N2,586,000 per annum, while that of his deputy, Atiku Abubakar was N1,938,000 the same as that of the Chief Justice of Nigeria and the Senate President, both heads of the judiciary and the legislature. This was as a result of the review of the salary structure and associated allowances for the top federal public office holders earlier carried out by the National Salaries and Wages Commission. This followed the review of the salary structure and associated allowances for the top federal public office holders earlier carried out by the National Salaries and Wages Commission. That review, which took effect on May 1, 2000, was contained in a memo SWC.04/S.1/ Vol.1V/186 dated May 15, 2000 and signed by G.P.O. Chikelu, the then Chairman of the Commission. |

| Politics › A Northerner's View About Buhari Handshake And Aisha's Under-age Marriage by Rizmo(op): 1:23pm On May 18, 2015 |
Nura Alkali If you are a Muslim who supports almajiri practice, opposes Buhari vehemently on Facebook for shaking hands with a woman, and condemns his wife for supporting girl education before marriage, I have this advise for you: 1. Nigeria belongs to Muslims, Christians, atheists and animists. If you are unhappy with that, relocate to Saudi Arabia, a purely Muslim country where I have lived for four years. 2. There, you will see King Salman shake hands with women, and you won't meet almajiri on the streets. The few child beggars you see will be refugee foreigners. Visit the Universities of Jeddah or Riyadh, you will find girls outnumber boys in most faculties, and less than a 10th of them are married. 3. So, unhappy with Saudi Arabia, you move to Iran. Iranian leaders may not shake women's hands, but their women hardly wear the burqah, basic education is compulsory for them, and far more of them attend universities unmarried than Saudi women. Of course, they drive too, unlike Saudi women. 4. Unhappy again, you can then cross the border into Iraq and join ISIS, assuming they will accept a black African in their midst, and you can survive constant raids and drone attacks by US and coalition forces. 5. Or cross the other side of the border into Afghanistan to join the Taliban and live in caves at Tora Bora, again dodging bombs and drone attacks every minute. 6. My point is, the retrogressive systems of government you look for are only practiced by terror groups like ISIS and the Taliban. No one stops you joining them. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

This is a new era, a new beginning and a new chapter in our national quest for greatness. Elections have never been this interesting in Nigeria. Kudos to all the principal actors in this transitional process. Jega has displayed an enviable level of professionalism as the chief umpire of this keenly contested election. Surely there is hope beyond the horizon. Kudos must also be given to Mr president for discarding all forms of ineptitude that would have truncated his effort in organising such a successful polls. For not meddling with the process, he has earned my respect. Finally a big congratulation to the president-elect. Wish to see his giant strides in tackling the bane of our age-long national progress.
