As the cash crunch continues to hit the federal and state governments
across the country owing to declining global oil
prices, SUNDAY PUNCH has gathered that 11
private jets and helicopters owned by seven state
governments are being maintained with about
N6bn yearly.
The jets and helicopters, which are worth
N36.54bn going by the current exchange rate, are
owned by Akwa Ibom, Rivers, Cross River, Bauchi,
Taraba, Osun and Lagos states.
Rivers, which owed its workers between three and
10 months’ salaries as of June 20, 2015, has two
private jets and one helicopter. These are
Bombardier Global 5000 acquired for $45m
(N8.9bn); Embraer Legacy 600, which goes for
about $16m (N3.152bn); and an Augusta Westland
helicopter, which goes for about $10m (N1.97bn),
according to aircraftcompare.com, an online
aviation portal that provides estimated prices of
aircraft.
The Taraba State Government owns two Embraer
ERJ 145, with each going for $21m (N4.13bn),
according to aircraftcompare.com. Thus, the two
planes cost about N8.27bn. The state
government, however, does not owe its workers.
Akwa Ibom, which as of June 20 had cleared all
outstanding workers’ salaries, owns an American-
made Gulfstream G450, which according to
aircraftcompare.com, costs $38.9m (N7.66bn).
Osun has a French-made Eurocopter ASS 355
helicopter it said was acquired for N500m
($2.538m at the current official exchange rate of
N197 to the United States dollar). As of June 20,
the state owed its workers seven months’ salaries.
Cross River has a Bombardier Dash 8 that
industry experts estimate to worth $10m
(N1.97bn). Some of its workers are owed six
months salaries, while others have two months’
outstanding.
Bauchi State, which as of June 20 owed two
months’ salaries, has one Embraer ERJ 145, which
costs $21m (N4.137bn), according to
aircraftcompare.com.
Lagos, which is not indebted to its workers, has
two Bell 412 helicopters, with each costing $6.7m
(N1.319bn), according to aircraftcompare.com
estimates. Thus, the two helicopters cost around
$13.4m (N2.64bn). They were acquired under the
Lagos State Security Trust Fund platform, an
initiative of the state government and private
partners.
The total cost of the 11 private jets and
helicopters is estimated at $198.80m (N39.17bn).
According to airline chief executives and industry
experts, airlines spend between 15 and 20 per
cent of the cost of an aircraft on its operations
yearly. They say that averagely, a little less than
one-fifth of the cost of the plane is spent every
year on insurance, flight and cabin crew,
maintenance, fuelling, catering and other costs.
Going by the fact that at least 15 per cent of the
cost is spent annually on running the private jets,
it means that not less than $29.82m (N5.875bn) is
spent every year as running costs on the jets by
the seven state governments.
This is coming just as cash-strapped states seeking
the release of President Muhammadu Buhari-
approved bailout funds have indicated that they
have no plan to sell their private jets and
helicopters in order to ameliorate their ravaging
economic condition.
Osun and Cross River states, which are currently
seeking N34.988bn and N7.856bn respectively in
loans from banks through the Federal
Government bailout package, said rather than sell
their private jets and helicopters, they had put
them into commercial use by leasing them to
some aviation companies.
The Chief Press Secretary to the Cross River State
Governor, Mr. Christian Ita, said, “We have put the
aircraft, Bombardier Dash 8, under
Aerocontractors Airlines for commercial
purposes. We bought it so that it could be used to
convey people to the Obudu Ranch.”
The Director, Bureau of Communications and
Strategy, Governor’s Office, Osun State, Mr. Semiu
Okanlawon, did not pick calls or respond to text
messages sent to his mobile telephone, but the All
Progressive Congress Chairman in the state, Mr.
Adegboyega Famodun, had a few months ago
said the state government had put the Eurocopter
ASS 355 helicopter into commercial use by leasing
it to an airline.
He, however, said the state normally recalled it
whenever it needed it.
Bauchi State, which is seeking N8.6bn in bailout
funds from the Federal Government, could not
readily comment on whether it would sell or put
for lease its Embraer ERJ 145.
The plane is expected to return back to the
country from Morocco any time from now, the
state government said two weeks ago.
An official of the state government, Mr. Chad
Mohammed, said the new administration was just
settling down and that those competent to speak
on the matter would get in touch with our
correspondent. As of the time of filing this report,
they had yet to do so.
However, Lagos, Rivers and Akwa Ibom states,
which have yet to apply for bailout funds perhaps
because they have no need for it, declined to
comment on whether their private jets and
helicopters would be sold or put into commercial
use.
The spokesperson for Governor Akinwumi
Ambode, Mr. Habib Aruna, did not pick calls or
respond to a text message seeking enquiry on the
state’s plan for its two helicopters.
The Special Adviser to the Rivers State Governor
on Media and Publicity, Mr. Opunabo Inko-Tariah,
said he had not been briefed by the governor on
the plans for the jets.
The Chief Press Secretary to Governor Udom
Emmanuel of Akwa Ibom State, Mr. Ekerette Udo,
and the Commissioner of Information, Mr.
Aniekan Umanah, neither picked calls nor
responded to text messages sent to their
telephones on the state’s Gulsstream 450 aircraft.
The Federal Government bailout for the states,
coming as loans from commercial banks, is
repayable at an interest rate of nine per cent over
a 20-year period, according to the Central Bank of
Nigeria.

Nigeria’s Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo on
Saturday stated that about 10 northern states
remained the most poorest in the country.
The Vice President revealed this at the Northern
Reawakening Forum organised to rebuild the 19
northern states affected by the insurgency.
He, however, emphasised that the new
administration is committed to repair the
damages.
This is also as he disclosed that General TY
Danjuma would supervise every presidential
interventions and inItiatives aimed to
rehabilitate Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs)
in the nation.
Osinbanjo said there was need for a unilateral
approach to streamline all interventions
including the Presidential Initiative on IDPs for
better impact.
He said the social safety nets, Conditional Cash
Transfer (CCT), one meal daily for school
children should be top priority among all the
interventions, stressing that the north bears
most consequence of poverty.
“We have been working on interventions in the
north east due to immediacy of the crisis in that
axis but the problem of diseases and poverty
were exacerbated by the Boko Haram
insurgency…..close detailed, analysis and plans
on the north east has been done in
collaboration with some development
organisations.
“We have government interventions such as
presidential initiative on the north east, victims
support group among others. Now all of the
federal government initiatives are now under
the chairmanship of General TY Danjuma. We
hope that streamlining these efforts this way
will help control immediate deliveries of succor
to many of the problems currently in the north
east.“In 19 northern states of Nigeria, human
development indices showed they are by far
poorer than other parts of the country. The
Northern states occupy 70 per cent of our land
mass, the highest infant mortality rate, the
lowest number of children in school, the highest
number of unemployed young people and the
challenge of insecurity and religious crisis
including Boko Haram,” he said.
Osinbajo added that “A nation of 170 million
people, the sixth largest producer of oil, over a
100 variety of solid minerals and precious
metals, thousands of arable land, largest
economy in Africa yet desperately poor, over
110 million people extremely poor. Maternal
mortality has taken over 55, 000 people in a
year.”
He noted there was urgent need to rehabilitate
the victims and integrate them back to their
original homes.
In his remark, the Borno State Governor, Alh.
Kashim Shettima called for prompt sustainable
development programmes in the northern
states.
Shetima, who said the governors had agreed to
work together to redevelopment the region,
urged federal government to develop an all
inclusive development plan to really address all
challenges of the state and restore peoples’
hopes.
“A comprehensive master plan that will help re-
integrate the people and seek entire
development of the northern Nigeria should be
designed,” Shettima added.
Speaking earlier, Chairman of the forum, Hon.
Mohammed Umara regretted that the north
west and north east records the highest death
rate of infants born within the first 28 days.
Umara said the region also records lowest
literacy level, adding that poverty rate in 16
from 19 northern states have doubled since
1980.

A former Bayelsa State Governor, Diepreye
Peter Alamieyeseigha has claimed that ex-
president, President Olusegun Obasanjo is a
devil incarnate.
The former governor said, though he had
forgiven Obasanjo, who allegedly
championed the campaign that led to his
impeachment and subsequent incarceration,
the experience, however, remained very
painful to him.
Alamieyeseigha, who received state pardon
from immediate past President, Dr Goodluck
Jonathan, told VANGUARD that Obasanjo’s
conscience had been pricking him because of
the role he played in his political misfortunes.
He said the former president, who met him
accidentally at the Katsina Airport became
jittery on seeing him and managed to shake
hands with him.
Alamieyeseigha said: “I have forgiven all those
who plotted against me, including former
President Obasanjo. I know all those who
plotted against me and sent me to jail. I
cannot be living in the past as it does not help
me in any way.
“What I passed through is painful all right but
it would not have happened if it was not
permitted by God. It is even more important
to me that I am still alive today because I
passed through many shadows of the valleys
of death and still came out of them. I have
met Obasanjo at very close quarters twice
since I came out of prison.
“I did not know that he was at the VIP Lounge
at the Katsina Airport to attend the marriage
of the late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua’s
daughter. Obasanjo came face to face with
me at the airport when I went to use one of
the rest rooms. It happened that as I opened
the door to ease myself, I saw Obasanjo
sitting face to face with me and he almost
passed out.
“But I held his hands. He was scared and he
felt uneasy all through. Then he began to ask
‘DSP, DSP, DSP! What have I done to deserve
shaking your hands?’ There were many
people there, one of them was Kenny
Martins, the then chairman of the Police
Equipment Fund.
“I told Obasanjo ‘I was only shaking you for
two reasons: one-because of the fear of the
Almighty God, who created us and two, for
the fact that I am the Ganuma Katsina and
you are a visitor to my emirate and tradition
demands that I should welcome visitors’.
“That prompted Kenny to get up also and
greet me, saying ‘great leader, great leader’
and he came and hugged me.’’
The former governor said his second post-
prison encounter with Obasanjo took place
aboard a Dubai-bound flight where the
former president met him seated in the
business class and addressed him as ‘Fayose’
out of fear.
“The second encounter with Obasanjo was
when we met on a flight going to Dubai. When
Obasanjo came, I was already seated in the
Business Class and he had no choice but to
greet me. But because of possible fear of
seeing me, Obasanjo called out ‘Fayose,
Fayose, Fayose.’ I protested to him that I am
not Fayose and I said: ‘Former President
Olusegun Matthew Okikiola Aremu Obasanjo,
you are a devil incarnate’, Alamieyeseigha
disclosed.
“I warned him not to talk again or he would
face my anger. And I tell you, throughout the
flight he could not say anything to me.
“The only thing Obasanjo managed to say was
to ask me whether I was the only one who
had ever been sent to the prison. ‘DSP, is it
only you that entered prison? Don’t you
remember that I was also imprisoned? You
entered prison and I also did.”

M embers of the cabinet of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan have demanded that the Muhammadu Buhari administration give due credit to their former boss for numerous achievements. In a statement distributed today, and signed by Abubakar O. Suleiman, a former Minister of National Planning, on behalf of ministers who served under the Jonathan administration, the ex- ministers stated that had “watched with increasing alarm and concern the concerted effort by the Buhari administration and members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to condemn, ridicule and undermine the efforts of that administration, in addition to impugning the integrity of its individual members.” The statement accused the Buhari administration of vilifying the Jonathan in a way that was “ill-intentioned, unduly partisan, and in bad faith.” According to Mr. Suleiman, the current government and ruling party had portrayed each and every member of the Jonathan administration “as corrupt and irresponsible, in an orchestrated and vicious trial by media [that] has created a lynch mentality that discredits our honest contributions to the growth and development of our beloved nation.” The former ministers expressed pride in their service to Nigeria and affirmed that the “improvements that have been noticed today in the power sector, in national security, and in social services and other sectors did not occur overnight. They are products of solid foundations laid by the same Jonathan administration.” They claimed that the Jonathan administration launched a vigorous fight against corruption “within the context of the rule of law and due process.” The statement continued: “For the benefit of those who may have forgotten so soon, it was the Jonathan administration that got rid of the fraud in fertilizer subsidies, which had plagued the country for decades. This helped to unleash a revolution in agricultural production and productivity. It was also the Jonathan administration that supported the institutional development of strong systems and mechanisms to curb corruption in the public service and plug revenue leakages. These included the development of the Government Integrated Financial Management Platform, The Single Treasury Account (TSA), and the Integrated Personnel and Payroll Management Systems (IPPIS), in addition to the biometric registration of civil servants and pensioners which saved the country over N100 billion paid to ghost workers and ghost pensioners.” The former ministers also credited the Jonathan administration with enthroning “greater transparency and integrity in the oil and gas sector” by investigating the theft of the country’s crude oil and designing the mechanisms to check it. They declared that Mr. Jonathan’s administration introduced “a Nigerian Content policy” that opened up the oil sector to Nigerians “in a manner that was not previously the case.” Mr. Suleiman’s statement on behalf of members of the Jonathan Presidency gave credit to the former president for mobilizing and securing “the support of our neighbouring countries to ensure a robust multinational response to the menace of terrorism and insurgency, resulting in notable advancements in the fight against terror. President Jonathan personally initiated the collaboration that led to these advancements and ensured that Nigeria provided the needed financial support for the Multinational Joint Task Force.” The statement also listed a myriad of other achievements by the Jonathan administration. These include the repair and rehabilitation of more than 25, 000 kilometers of Nigerian roads; Nigeria’s status as “a profitable and preferred investment-friendly destination;” ensuring that Nigeria’s electric power sector became more competitive and attractive to local and foreign investments; promotion of the rule of law, free speech, fundamental human rights, and a robust freedom of information regime; and the promotion of women’s rights “to participate in public life and the Federal Character principle” in addition to fostering respect for constitutional principles. “In every respect, our administration promoted inclusive governance and encouraged all stakeholders including the private sector to play key roles in the transformation of Nigeria. It should also not be forgotten that the Jonathan administration strengthened electoral institutions and created a peaceful environment for democracy to thrive. On this score, it is sad and ironic that the chief beneficiaries of that same legacy are the most vociferous today in condemning President Jonathan and his team. Perhaps the new administration and the APC would be sincere enough to publish the details of the hand-over notes they received.” Mr. Suleiman challenged the Buhari administration to be “fair enough to acknowledge the good works of the Jonathan administration,” insisting that no administration could be “either completely bad or completely good.” The statement demanded acknowledgment of “President Jonathan’s achievements in moving this country to greater heights,” urging Mr. Buhari “to build on these achievements.” The former ministers asked the current administration to “press on with the anti- corruption fight, but in a fair and non-partisan manner, in line with due process, and not as a political witch-hunt.” According to the statement, the Buhari administration’s self-appointed spokespersons were peddling “various lies and fabrications” that “may entertain the unwary, but such sensationalism may achieve the unintended effect of de-marketing our country within the international community.” It continued: “All such persons playing to the gallery for whatever gains should be called to order. The name-calling of members of the Jonathan administration and the trial by news media should also stop. We encourage President Buhari to continue with the probes, but this must be in strict accordance with his oath of office to treat all Nigerians equally and with the fear of God.” The former ministers expressed hope that “the euphoria that may have inspired the various attacks on the past administration” would wear off, enabling reason to prevail. “But we are constrained to speak up in defense of the legacy of the Jonathan administration, and shall do so again, for as long as those who are determined to rubbish that legacy, are unrelenting in their usual deployment of blackmail, persecution, and similar tactics,” the statement concluded.
