Tinubu epitomize everything a leader should stand for. A fair player. A real competitor. A king and more. Atiku may be our main opponent. But we celebrate him.

We his believers and supporters just usually go out of our ways sometimes to involve ourselves in gbas-gbos and politics of aggressiveness in response to what the antagonists try throwing at him.

The man doesnt care. Insult him all you want, hate him, abuse him... He always keep forging on and never get distracted.

Liken him to a boxer, who never get distracted by the dancing around the ring and antics of his opponent.

Liken him to a market petty trader who never bothers about the noise of the market but focus on selling what he has to offer.

A man that can pull crowd comfortably in the south, west, east, and North.

No wonder ... Pastor Adeboye called him 'Abraham' ..
No wonder they call him jagaban Even this same Atiku and PDP chairman AYU cant help both admire his courage when they met at the airport few weeks back. .. Man is in a league of his own.

Himself only.

Both parties are scared of LP

The camp of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has slammed the All Progressives Congress, APC, National Chairman, Adamu Abdullahi, over his concerns about using Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) for the 2023 general election.

Dele Momodu, the PDP Director of Strategic Communications, said Adamu is jittery over using BVAS in the 2023 elections, adding that the ruling party is afraid that technology would expose them.

The APC National Chairman had said Nigeria was not ready to use BVAS using elections.

Adamu raised the concern while addressing a Commonwealth delegation on the 2023 general election in Abuja on Wednesday.

Following backlash that greeted Adamu’s remark, the APC Spokesman, Felix Morka, explained that the party would never fault the use of technology in the 2023 election.

Reacting, Momodu said APC was afraid of losing the 2023 presidential election.

According to Momodu: “APC is jittery and they don’t want to go through the technological process.

“Whether they admit it or not, they are scared, knowing they cannot win elections anywhere in Nigeria.

“Technology will expose their rigging plans. Every other party is interested in credible elections except the ruling party. INEC must, therefore, not yield to pressure from any quarters.”

Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State has said his administration has constructed more roads than his predecessors like Ibikunle Amosun, Gbenga Daniel and Segun Osoba.


According to Abiodun, 80 major roads, including federal ones, have been constructed since he came on board in 2019.

Abiodun said the roads, totalling 400km, were constructed, reconstructed and rehabilitated by his administration.

With this feat, the governor maintained that his administration in the last three and a half years has more kilometres of road done than what his predecessors could lay claim to.

“Over 80 major roads and others (Federal roads inclusive) totalling 400km have been constructed, reconstructed or rehabilitated across the State.


“This administration in three years and six months has done more in terms of kilometres of roads than previous administrations in the State,” Gov Abiodun said in a post on his verified social media handles.

The Federal Government has attributed the menace of crude oil theft to the worsening unemployment situation in the country.

Dr Chris Ngige, the Minister of Labour and Employment, said this while declaring open the 8th Meeting of the National Employment Council on Friday in Abuja.

Mr Olajide Oshundun, the Head, Press and Public Relations, quoted the minister as saying this in

Ngige, who is the chairman of the council, said that oil theft has made Nigeria to become a mendicant nation, resorting to begging for survival.

According to him, this menace has hampered the efforts of the federal government towards creating jobs for the country’s teeming youthful population.

“I am aware that you people know that we are at a very critical stage in our nation’s life. We have economic problems all over the world, but our own in Nigeria is self inflicted. Our main source of revenue is oil.

“But, in the oil sector, two things are happening. One, Nigeria is not meeting her production quota. Our OPEC production quota used to be 2.2 million barrels per day. It slipped down to 1.8 million barrels.

“Now, we cannot even produce the 1.8 million barrels. We are hovering around 1.1 million barrels per day, and they told us that some people are stealing our crude oil.

“This is a very serious matter because it has made us become very mendicant. We are now a mendicant nation, resorting to begging for survival,’’ he said.


He added that the nation cannot continue that way because it has hampered efforts to create jobs for our teeming youthful population.

The minister further said: “Some people were analysing the situation and said that when we started the country, the white men came here and took all the jobs.

“ We were seeing them with white shirts and ties and the jobs became known as white collar jobs. Later, our own people started going to university and after graduation, joined in the ‘white collar jobs’.

“Our colonial masters left and bequeathed to us another group of colonial masters, which comprised the indigenous people.

`Those who took over from the colonial masters did not plan for tomorrow. Number one is that our population is growing uncontrollably.

“Our population astronomically outpaces our Gross Domestic Product (GDP). We are neither finding our youthful population white collar jobs, nor making arrangement for them to do the blue collar jobs.

“Blue collar jobs are the ones you do with your hands, applying skills,’’ he said.

Ngige also noted that the only few blue collar jobs were created in the transport sector, especially in rail and maritime, without producing indirect jobs to complement them, while the situation was made worse by foreigners.

He added that this was especially Chinese and other West African people who have taken over most of the blue collar jobs.

He also blamed the overflowing joblessness for the youth restiveness all over the country.

“Unemployment is not confined to Nigeria, but our own is worse because in other climes, people are earning money from blue collar jobs. Here, we have no blue collar jobs for our workforce.

“We have polytechnics but they are competing with universities for degrees. We see a polytechnic say it is awarding degree. We have technical colleges that want to equate their certificate with a degree.

“Nobody is interested in having technical skills. Everybody wants to be drawing and designing in air-conditioned offices, which is what the degree man does. The degree men are not supposed to be the implementers.

“ The field implementers are the technologists and technicians and in proper climes, they are very well paid and live decent lives,’’ he said.

According to him, to reverse this ugly trend, there is need for a handshake between the National Employment Council and the National Skills Council, which is domiciled in both the Federal Ministry of Labour and Ministry Education.

He said this also comprised the ministries of Industries and Trade, Works, Power, Science and Technology, and all other government creations, with a sense of urgency.

Ngige therefore recommended the incorporation of the Federal Ministry of Communication and Digital Economy into the National Employment Council, being that we are in a digital age which made for the creation of digital jobs.

He described digital jobs as the best way to absolve the bulging mass of youths that are now unemployed.

“We need to also look at NNPC and gas pipeline projects. Nigeria is doing two projects now, the Abuja-Kaduna-Kano (AKK) and the one that transverses the West African Line into Morocco and extending to Europe.

“So, these are all ongoing critical infrastructure projects with large quantum of jobs to be created from them,’’ he said.

He welcomed the proposal for the creation of labour desks in form of job synergy points in the ministries, departments and agencies where needed in order to facilitate job monitoring and creation.

“We conceived concept of labour desks for trade disputes and that was why we started in the ministries and agencies that have propensity for a lot of trade disputes.

“Now, that this Employment Council is thinking ahead, you should also bring a proposal so that we can do reforms through the Ministry of Labour.

`This will ensure to have job creation contents in conjunction with the trade dispute aspect, in addition to managing strike actions,’’ he said.(NAN)
