PoliticsSenate Leader Visits Buhari, Says " I'm Consulting " by sayyid(op): 7:43pm On Feb 15, 2016
The Senate Leader, Ali Ndume, on Monday met with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Ndume had last Tuesday met with Vice President Yemi Osinbajo alongside some of his colleagues while Buhari was on vacation.
SUNDAY PUNCH had reported exclusively that the visit of Ndume and his delegation to Osinbajo was part of the ways the embattled President of the Senate, Bukola Saraki, was seeking the Presidency’s intervention in his case before the Code of Conduct Tribunal over alleged false declaration of assets.
He told State House correspondents at the end of his meeting with Buhari on Monday that he was in the Presidential Villa to consult with the President ahead of the Tuesday resumption of the Senate.
He said there was nothing unusual about his visit except that he had been embarking on similar visits in the nights.
Ndume said, “I hope you people know that I am the Senate Leader and this is APC government. So if the Senate Leader comes to see the Vice President or the President in the Villa, is it supposed to be a surprise?
“I guess it is because most often, I come in the night but this time, I came in the afternoon and it became very strange.
“There are issues that are really on the ground. One is the budget. We also have two bills before the Senate that we need to start working on when we resume tomorrow. The Money Laundering Bill and the Criminal Information Sharing Bill.
“There are issues other than those ones that are really on the ground. This is how we are supposed to be doing it earlier. That is, coming into the Villa to consult and guide the proceedings in the Senate appropriately.
“Other than that, I don’t want you to see it as an unusual visit. I will be doing this often because this is how it is supposed to be.

Politics2016 Budget: 10 Provisions Nigerians Are Unhappy With by sayyid(op): 9:55pm On Feb 13, 2016
With the controversy over the “missing budget” and
the revelation by the Senate that two versions of the
2016 budget proposal was submitted to the National
Assembly still fresh in the memory, the appropriation
bill has attracted fresh controversy.
Amid claims that the budget proposal was padded,
more Nigerians are scrutinising the document. The
result is a damning hashtag on Twitter. The budget
proposal is trending for the wrong reason.
Using #Budgetofcorruption, many Nigerians have
condemned the provisions of the N6.08tn budget
proposal, saying it is not different from the ill-
conceived budgets of the past.
Leading the charge is BudgIT, a website aimed at
using IT solution to explain government data to
citizens.
Here are some of the provisions in the budget that has
irked Nigerians:
2016 budget is an untidy mess
1. The government plans to spend N3.8bn on the
State House Medical Centre, over N1bn on the
purchase of vehicles and N89.17m on canteen/
kitchen equipment.
2. The budget is based on an oil price benchmark of
$38 per barrel even though oil prices are currently
around $33 per barrel amid expectation that the
price could slip to as low as $20 per barrel. This
was one of the earliest problems experts pointed
out in the budget.
3. N3.91bn was earmarked for the rehabilitation/
repair of office buildings. Under the State House
Headquarters votes, N278m is proposed for the
maintenance of office buildings/residential
quarters. This comes even after N1.328bn was
allocated to the maintenance of office buildings/
residential quarters in 2014 (N901.11m) and 2015
(N421.27m).
4. N1.71bn allocated to the Office of the Secretary to
the Government of the Federation for security
equipment. The office got N316.42m in 2015 for
rehabilitation/repair of electrical components.
5. N501.52m earmarked for Research and
Development in the Office of the Head of Service
of the Federation. The office got N312m for the
same purpose in 2015 and N1.17bn in 2014.
6. For budget preparation, N1.6bn was allocated to
116 Federal Government Agencies.
7. N10bn allocated for office furniture to 116 FG
agencies.
8. N795m allocated to update the website of the
Ministry of Solid Minerals. 9. N30.8m allocated as
rent for the Aso Rock residential building.
10. N13.4bn allocated to 84 Federal Government
Agencies to purchase computer software.

PoliticsAPC, PDP Reps Clash Over Amaechi by sayyid(op): 9:32pm On Feb 11, 2016
All Progressives Congress members of the House of
Representatives clashed with their Peoples Democratic
Party colleagues today over the Minister of Transport,
Mr. Rotimi Amaechi.
Amaechi appeared before the joint Committee on
Marine/Land Transport to defend the 2016 budget
proposals of the ministry, but lawmakers tried to turn
the session into a venue for political party supremacy
battle.
APC members, who control the majority of 213, out of
the 360-member legislature, felt that the former
Governor of Rivers State deserved some protection
from the committee, as he came under a barrage of
questions.
The APC lawmakers complained that too many
questions were being thrown at the minister.
However, some PDP members suddenly flared up,
arguing that the minister could be asked any
questions.
The PDP members were led by Mr. Pat Asadu (Enugu
State) and Mr. Nnana Igbokwe (Imo State).
The development came as the House Committee on
Aviation rejected a proposal by the Nigerian Civil
Aviation Authority to spend N130m this year to
conduct a security audit on the nation’s airports.
The Chairperson of the committee, Mrs. Nkeiruka
Onyejeocha, recalled that in 2015, a similar proposal
was submitted by the agency.
She noted, “I can see you people have brought this
matter of security audit again, and I remember
querying it last year.
“How can you spend this much on the airports even
when 22 out of the 32 airports are shut down with no
operation going on whatsoever?
“The committee expressed dissatisfaction with the
performance of the capital projects of the NCAA,
rating them as “below average.”
But, the Director-General of NCAA, Capt. Mukhtar
Usman, informed the committee that the agency
improved on the training of personnel to meet global
standards.
Similarly, the Committee on Foreign Relations declined
to approve a proposal by the Ministry of Foreign
Affairs to spend N9bn for connectivity projects to link
Abuja with all foreign missions.

PoliticsFG Asks CCT To Give Date For Saraki's Trial by sayyid(op): 10:40am On Feb 11, 2016
The Federal Government has written to the Code of
Conduct Tribunal asking for a date for the
commencement of the trial of the Senate President,
Dr. Bukola Saraki, on charges of false assets
declaration.
The letter written on behalf of the Federal Government
by the lead prosecuting counsel, Mr. Rotimi Jacobs
(SAN), followed the February 5 judgment of the
Supreme Court validating the trial of the Senate
President before the CCT.
It was learnt that Jacobs sent the letter with a copy of
the Supreme Court’s judgment attached to it to the
Danladi Umar-led CCT on Monday.
Our correspondent did not get to see a copy of the
letter, but the Head, Press and Public Relations of the
CCT, Mr. Ibraheem Al-hassan, confirmed to our
correspondent that the registrar of the tribunal had
received it.
“I have confirmed from the registrar and he confirmed
to me that Mr. Rotimi Jacobs (SAN), wrote the letter,
informing the tribunal that the Supreme Court has
dismissed the appeal that was stopping the trial from
going on. He attached a copy of the judgment to the
letter.
“The letter will be considered and a hearing notice will
be issued later on.”
It is expected that the tribunal will give a date for the
trial and issue hearing notices to parties to the case
this week.
A seven-man panel of the apex court presided over by
the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Mahmud
Mohammed, unanimously ruled in its judgment on
February 5 that Saraki’s appeal against the jurisdiction
of the CCT and the competence of the charges, lacked
merit.
Justice Walter Onnoghen, who delivered the lead
judgment, dismissed all Saraki’s seven grounds of
appeal, affirming that the charges instituted against
him were valid and that the tribunal was validly
constituted with requisite jurisdiction to try him.
The CJN and other members of the full panel of the
apex court, comprising Justices Tanko Muhammad,
Sylvester Ngwuta, Kudirat Kekere-Ekun, Chima Nweze
and Amiru Sanusi, also consented to the judgment.
The judgment of the Supreme Court terminated an
earlier order of the a panel of apex court presided over
by now retired Justice John Fabiyi, which had on
November 12, 2015, suspended proceedings in the trial
of the Senate President.
The CCT is therefore expected to issue a hearing
notice for the continuation of the Senate President’s
trial.
In the 13 counts initiated by the Federal Government,
Saraki was said to have made false assets declaration
in his forms submitted to the Code of Conduct Bureau
as a two-term governor of Kwara State between 2003
and 2011.
The Senate President, who was said to have submitted
four assets declaration forms which were allegedly
investigated by the CCB, was found to have “corruptly
acquired many properties while in office as Governor
of Kwara State but failed to declare some of them in
the said forms earlier filled and submitted.”
He also allegedly made an anticipatory declaration of
assets upon his assumption of office as governor,
which he later acquired.
He is also accused of sending money abroad for the
purchase of property in London and that he maintained
an account outside Nigeria while serving as governor.
Saraki initially refused to appear before the tribunal
prompting it to issue a bench warrant against him.
Saraki failed in his bid to get the Danladi Umar-led
tribunal to quash the 13 counts, after he was arraigned
on September 22, 2015.
