I was even wondering why 2019 in the future

dikeigbo2:
Not only to resign but can also be jailed....resigning does no one any good......

While speaking to Stephen Sackur of BBC’s Hardtalk, Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Ibe Kachikwu said that he will resign if Nigeria continues to import fuel by 2019.

“I have delivered on all that I have promised when I came into office. First, I took Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) and made it a profit-making organization. This is the first time in history, I reshaped the organization.

I removed cash call deficits of over $6bn and renegotiated it. Everything that I have promised since coming into office, I have delivered. I will deliver to the refineries and I’m committed to it.

I will also deliver a future for oil that makes sense for Nigeria. Bear in mind one has been there for one and a half years, the president has been there for two years; I can’t pretend that we’re going to solve in one day all the problems that happened in Nigeria in the past,” he said.

“Our target is 2019…donot worry, I put the date, I’ll work it,” Kachikwu said when asked when Nigeria will attain self-sufficiency in crude oil refining.

Sackur then said: “And if you don’t achieve it, you’ll walk?” Kachikwu replied: “Yes, of course, that is the reason why you are in government.”

Dis Country No Go Better Again

At the Rainoil 20th Anniversary Lecture organised by the company in Lagos on Wednesday, the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr Ibe Kachikwu said with the proposed construction of modular refineries in the Niger Delta and more investments in the sector, the importation of refined products would be reduced to 60 per cent by 2018.

According to him, the country will start exporting refined products with the commencement of Dangote Refinery in 2019.

“The nation is at the turning point where the downstream industry is more critical than ever and will drive the economy. Currently, the NNPC imports over 95 per cent of petroleum products because of the challenges faced by marketers in accessing Foreign Exchange. After 20 years in this industry, I have seen the industry go through challenges but regardless of all that, we are optimistic that there are a lot of opportunities in the sector. By year 2020, the country would not import petroleum products.” he said.

Kachikwu said the country’s refining capacity for the first quarter of this year presently peaked at 10 million barrels of crude oil. This he noted was against eight million and 24 million barrels recorded for the entire years of 2015 and 2016 respectively.

Acting President Yemi Osinbajo, on Thursday, presented a certificate of incorporation to an entrepreneur, minutes after she registered her business at the micro small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) clinic in Katsina.

This is in keeping with the new policy of the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) for easy business registration.

The CAC reduced the number of days to register a business from seven to one.

The clinic is a platform which gives small businesses easy access to relevant government agencies. It is an initiative of the government aimed at giving MSMEs the fillip to thrive and grow.

In January 2017, Osinbajo kicked off the event in Aba – a city that is celebrated as the home of made in Nigeria goods.

The clinic, which is held across the states, took place in Plateau in March, and then in Katsina on Thursday.

Recently, the government launched a 60-day easy of doing business action plan with a view to reducing friction to establishing and doing business.

Investors scrambled for banking stocks last week as Nigerian equities sustained all-session bullish rally to reach their highest index point in recent period.

Benchmark indices at the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) showed week-on-week gain of 1.85 per cent at the equities market, equivalent to a net capital gain of N157 billion in the four-day trading week.


The Nation reports that the recovery at the stock market was evident as:

The NSE Banking Index, which tracks the banking sector, recorded average week-on-week gain of 3.64 per cent, almost a double of the average return at the stock market.
Banking stocks dominated the activities chart with two of the most capitalised banks-Zenith Bank International and FBN Holdings, accounting for 25 per cent and 30.4 per cent of the total turnover volume and value respectively.
There was considerable improvement in banks’ corporate earnings in the first quarter of this year, which many analysts believed was the major factor for the renewed investors’ appetite for banks’ shares.
With nearly three gainers for every loser, aggregate market value of all quoted equities rose from the week’s opening value of N8.913 trillion to close the week at N9.069 trillion, an increase of 1.75 per cent.
The All Share Index (ASI)-the benchmark index that tracks prices at the Exchange, also trended from the index on board of 25,758.51 points to close at 26,235.63 points, representing a week-on-week gain of 1.85 per cent.
There were 43 gainers against 16 losers last week compared to 38 gainers and 25 losers recorded in the previous week.
A total of 114 stocks have remained unchanged for the past two weeks. Fidson Healthcare recorded the highest gain, in percentage terms, of 43.6 per cent to close at N1.58. Oando followed with a gain of 24 per cent to close at N7.17 while Livestock Feeds rose by 16.2 per cent to close at 86 kobo.
Total turnover during the four days of trading at the NSE stood at 1.15 billion shares worth N10.44 billion in 16,676 compared with a total of 1.33 billion shares valued at N9.67 traded in 16,300 deals two weeks ago.
It is hoped that the market would continue on the upswing over in the meantime, although profit-taking transactions could moderate performance in early trades this week.

https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/live-supermart/recipe_images/X5bnuTzvaxWjkAdBI9mg.jpg
Ogbono soup is a very popular Nigerian soup. Many tribes claim this soup as their native delicacy. One thing we are sure of is that even amateurs can prepare this soup. Yes, it is that easy.

Method
1. Pour the palm oil in a small pot and heat slightly until melted. Add the ogbono paste and stir until there are no lumps.
2. Pour in about 1/2 cup of your hot stock or warm water slowly while still stirring. Then keep adding water until you have achieved the consistency you like. Allow to cook for about 2 mins.
3. Add ground crayfish, smoked fish (cleaned, washed and cut), beef (cooked and spiced to your taste), maggi cubes (be careful with how much of this you use, especially if you used meat stock already) and just enough salt to taste.
4. Allow to cook on low heat for about 15 minutes without covering the pot as it tends to pour out. Stir every now and then. If it gets too thick just add a bit of hot water or stock.
5. Add the chopped and washed ugwu leaves and allow to simmer for about 2 minutes.
6. Serve hot with any swallow of your choice.
