Give Your Home a Facelift - Stone coated steel is a premium roofing product, meaning it has superior durability and longevity to other roofing products. Whatever the style, color, or finish of your current roof, there is most likely a steel roof that will match the appearance of your home. Whether you want the look of an asphalt shingle, clay tile, cedar shake or slate, you can select a steel roof, either a painted or a premium stone coated one, that will enhance the beauty of your home.

Energy Efficient - There’s more to the beautiful colors and designs available than meets the eye. For example, the lighter-colored roofs are designed to effectively reflect the sun’s heat and reduce the need to cool your home during the hot summer months. Our “dead air” buffer zone between your new roof and old roof also insulates against heat loss in winter months. What an exceptional way to lower your energy bills, effectively putting money back in your pocket.

Lasting Strength - Mother Nature is hard, especially on non-steel roofing materials which begin to deteriorate immediately after they are installed from exposure to damaging ultraviolet rays of the sun, expansion and contraction as a result of temperature changes and the detrimental effect of hailstones, ice and wind. Hurricane rated metal roofing products, particularly stone coated steel however, can take extreme weather conditions and still look and protect like new for a lifetime

PoliticsBabangida's $12.4bn Oil Windfall Looting: Agf, Cbn Fault Former Cjn Over Rights by samla(op): 1:14pm On Jun 09, 2011
The Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mohammed Adoke (SAN) and the Central Bank of Nigeria have faulted the former Chief Justice of Nigeria Idris Legbo Kutigi over his enactment of the Fundamental Rights (Enforcement Procedure) Rules 2009, arguing that he “exceeded his Constitutional powers by liberalising the rules on locus standi, permitting public impact litigation, and allowing the inclusion of the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights in the Rules.”

It would be recalled that a coalition of six civil society groups led by Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) sued the AGF and CBN in September 2010, seeking information on how $12.4 billion oil windfall of between 1988 and 1994 was spent.

The AGF and the CBN criticized the former CJN during the final oral arguments on the Okigbo report case before Honourable Justice G.O. Kolawole of the Federal High Court, Abuja on Wednesday 8 June 2011. The AGF and CBN argued that the former CJN “has no power to make rules to include the African Charter”, insisting that section 46(3) of the 1999 Constitution does not give him any such power. In response, the Plaintiffs through their lawyers, Femi Falana and Sola Egbeyinka argued that Justice Kutigi “was right to have enacted the Rules,” citing the decision of the Supreme Court in Abacha vs Fawehinmi, and Article 1 of the African Charter, which they said “imposes a legal duty on Nigeria to adopt legislative and other measures to implement the Charter at the national level.”

Both the AGF and CBN insisted that they could not find the Okigbo report, and had no duty to render account on the spending of the accrued revenue. The Plaintiffs disagreed, arguing that “such duty exists on the basis of Article 9 of the African Charter, which has become part of our national laws. Also, the Freedom of Information Act has just been enacted which also imposes a legal duty on public institutions and agencies to render account, and allow access to public documents.”

The CBN also argued that “only the AGF as a defender of public interest has the right to seek information on the spending of the $12.4 billion oil windfall,” saying that the Plaintiffs have no such right. The Plaintiffs countered by saying that it was “the failure of the AGF to carry out his duty in this respect,” that prompted their legal action against the government in the first place.

Justice Kolawole has adjourned the case to 28 July 2011 for judgment.

Before adjourning the case for judgment Justice Kolawole remarked: “If we have human rights activists like Femi Falana and the late Gani Fawehinmi in places like Libya, they would not have been in a mess they are now.”
The suit no FHC/ABJ/CS/640/10 was brought under the Fundamental Rights (Enforcement Procedure) Rules 2009.

Earlier, both the AGF and the CBN had asked the court to reject the Okigbo panel report as “the report is not admissible in law because it has not yet been published in a gazette and no white paper has been issued on the report.”

In their separate preliminary objections filed in March before the court, both the AGF and the CBN also argued that the plaintiffs have no locus standi; and are not juristic persons as they are not registered.
The CBN said that the suit was not justiciable as it was not covered under the fundamental rights provisions of sections 33-46 of the 1999 Constitution.

The AGF is represented in the suit by SN Nwosu, while the CBN is represented by Nwanrere and Magashi.

The plaintiffs in their suit had averred that: "In 1994, the Federal Government set up the Pius Okigbo Panel to investigate the activities of the Central Bank of Nigeria and recommend measures for the re-organization of the bank. In the course of its assignment, the Okigbo Panel found that the $12.5 billion in the Dedicated and Special Accounts had been depleted to $200 million by June 1994. As a result of the alleged mismanagement of the said $12.2 billion by the military President, General Ibrahim Babangida, the Okigbo Panel recommended that the Dedicated and Special Accounts be discontinued."

The Plaintiffs are seeking an order of Mandamus compelling the respondents individually and/or collectively to publish detailed statement of account relating to the spending of $12.4 billion oil windfall between 1988 and 1994, and to publish in major national newspapers a copy of the statement of account.

Besides, they want the court to order the respondents to prosecute anyone indicted by the report, recoup the money from them and return same to the treasury.

They also want an order directing the respondents to provide adequate reparation, which may take the form of restitution, compensation, satisfaction or guarantees of non-repetition to millions of Nigerians that have been denied their human rights as a result of the respondents’ failure and/or negligence to ensure transparency and accountability in the spending of $12.4 billion oil windfall between 1988 and 1994.

According to the plaintiffs, "The need for information regarding the spending of $12.4 billion oil windfall is important to promote transparency and accountability in the management of public resources and to fulfill Nigeria’s international obligations to promote the development of the country. Access to information of this nature is especially important in this country, which is struggling to establish the rule of law and democracy in the face of underdevelopment, poverty, illiteracy and diseases. The right of access to information is also crucial to the realisation of all other human rights, including the peoples’ right to their natural wealth and resources."

"Public bodies hold information not for themselves but as custodians of the public good and everyone has a right to access this information. Unless the Court compels Mr. Adoke and the CBN to disclose the information requested in this case, the information may never be disclosed and Nigeria will remain in breach of its international anticorruption and human rights obligations and commitments," the plaintiffs further argued.

The plaintiffs also argued that: "The diversion and/or mismanagement of the $12.4 billion oil windfall is a violation of Nigerians’ right to natural resources and wealth and to economic development, as recognised and guaranteed by 21 and 22 of the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights (Ratification and Enforcement) Act). Under the African Charter, the Nigerian government has a legal responsibility to utilise the natural resources of the country so as to benefit the whole people. Just as the people of every sovereign state have a permanent right to choose their form of government, so the people are entitled to insist that the natural resources of the nation be exploited in the interest of the people."

The plaintiffs are contending that, "the right of a people not to be dispossessed of their wealth and natural resources is not just any ordinary right, but the fundamental human right. This right is an essential element of peoples’ economic security, survival and independence."

PoliticsBankole Pleads 'not Guilty' To Corruption Charges by samla(op): 4:25pm On Jun 08, 2011
The former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Dimeji Bankole, has pleaded not guilty to the 16-count charge brought against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.

Mr Bankole, who has been in the commission's custody since Sunday night before he was formerly charged to the Federal High Court, Abuja on Wednesday, answered in the negative when the charges were read to him. The judge then ruled that Mr Bankole be remanded to the custody of the EFCC until Friday, when his bail application will be heard.

The commission had accused Mr Bankole of contract fixing worth millions of naira and also inflation of the cost of items bought by the house, such as television sets, which it described as an act of fraud and an offense contrary to Section 58 (4) (a) of the public Procurement Act No. 14 of 2007 and punishable under Section 58 (5) of the same Act.

CrimeDr Evil’s Baby Farm Raided 32 Pregnant Teens Rescued by samla(op): 1:29pm On Jun 03, 2011
Police raided a suspected baby factory in Aba, southeastern Abia, and found 32 pregnant teenage girls who were reportedly dragooned into a baby-selling business under the watch of Dr. Hyacinth Orikara of the Cross Foundation.

It was the second such arrest for Dr. Orikara who claims that his clinic is an adoption agency where girls with unwanted pregnancies receive help and the children get new parents.

But sources describe the clinic as a link in a human-trafficking ring with infants being “farmed” and sold.

Police arrested Orikara last week-end on a tip-off by a concerned citizen.

Orikara, proprietor of the Cross Foundation, is likely to face charges of child abuse and human trafficking, police said. Buying or selling babies can carry a 14-year jail sentence.

Orikara graduated from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka in 1998 and is also an employee of the Abia State Health Management Board in Umuahia, the state capital. According to him, his charity home is run in consultation with the welfare department of the state government.
The case is likely to involve the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons and the police.

Human trafficking is ranked the third most common crime in Nigeria after financial fraud and drug trafficking. At least 10 children are sold every day across the country, according to the UN. Traffickers are seldom caught
Mothers receive less than $200 per child. They are then sold for up to $6,400 a piece, depending on the sex.

Babies are sold for up to $6,400 each, depending on the sex, the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons says. Teenagers with unplanned pregnancies are sometimes lured to clinics and then forced to hand over their babies.

The girls were reportedly about to turn over their babies in exchange for money. The children – ranging in age from 15 to 17 were in the care of Hyacinth Orikara, of Heda Clinic in Aba, southeastern state of Abia in Nigeria have been arrested for allegedly belonging to a human –trafficking ring in which babies were sold for adoption and ritual purposes.

The arrest last week-end, followed a tip-off that infants were being “farmed” and sold police sources said.

Dr Orikara claimed the clinic was an adoption agency were girls with unwanted pregnancies received help and the children handed over to a nameless social welfare office.

The 33 individuals will be either charged on Friday or handed over to the National Agency for the Prohibition of trafficking in Persons for more investigation.

Depending on the sex of the babies, the prices ranged from $160 - $190 each and in the past most of the babies were trafficked to Europe mostly in the United Kingdom where they were part of welfare fraud schemes.

'I Made A Terrible Mistake' Says Heir To British Throne
LONDON—Barely a month after marrying 29-year-old Kate Middleton in a royal wedding ceremony watched by an estimated 2 billion people worldwide, Prince William announced Tuesday that he and Middleton have divorced and that the entire marriage was "a tremendous mistake in every possible regard." "I really don't know what I was thinking—we're a terrible match, I don't love her and never have, and, to be honest, I never really had any interest in being married in the first place," announced the now unattached Prince William to a dead-silent British press corps. "People thought our wedding was some sort of fairy tale, but I assure you it was all just some ghastly ceremonial farce that got out of hand. I'm just relieved it's over, frankly. And I'm glad I'll never have to see that awful woman again." Prince William then told the assembled reporters, "Well, see you all later," smiled, and walked back into Buckingham Palace
