Ambode gives land to German firm investing
$75m in Lagos

*…Says Investment Confirms Nigeria’ll Come
Out Of Recession
*…Firm To Create 15,200 Direct Employment,
Train 800 Annually
The Lagos State Governor, Mr. Akinwunmi
Ambode, on Thursday, demonstrated his
commitment to attract foreign investors into
the State by approving land for the
establishment of a training centre in Lagos
where architects, civil engineers and
craftsmen will be trained on modern trends
and technologies in the construction sector.
Governor Ambode, who gave the approval
when he received a delegation from The
Knauf Group, which is a German firm
currently establishing a $75miilion building/
construction tools manufacturing factory in
Lagos, said the approval for the land became
imperative in view of the need to encourage
investors to continue to invest in Lagos.
The Knauf Group is one of the world’s
leading manufacturers of modern insulation
materials, dry lining systems, plasters and
accessories, thermal insulation composite
systems, paints, floor screed, floor systems,
and construction equipment and tools.
The delegation was led by a member of the
Management Committee of the firm, Isabel
Knauf and Consular General of German
Embassy in Lagos, Mr. Ingo Herbert.
Governor Ambode, who recalled the last time
Herbert visited the Lagos House about eleven
months ago, said his administration has
remained focused to the promise of
upholding judicial and security sector
reforms, as well as creating a friendly
environment for investment to thrive.
He said the massive investment by The
Knauf Group in Lagos was a pointer to the
fact that investors were still willing to invest
in Nigeria despite the economic recession,
and that the country will come out of the
economic doldrums even stronger.
“I must commend the German government
and The Knauf Group for showing something
important to all Nigerians that beyond the
economic recession, their total believe in our
economy is unshaken because it is not
enough for any investor to come into an area
where they have never invested before and
months after, the parameters for investment
are not really looking good, but you stuck in
there and beyond the fact that you have
gone to procure land, you also have an
established office within the last eleven
months and you are already pumping in
money into what you want to do.
“This is a great pointer to the fact that you
believe in the Lagos economy and also
believe in the future of Nigeria and I like to
encourage other investors to emulate what
your firm and government is doing in Lagos
and as they show interest, we will not
hesitate to give them the necessary support,”
the Governor said.
Governor Ambode said The Knauf Group
specifically deserved to be commended for
not just investing in Nigeria, but also
bringing the German vocational expertise on
an area of construction that was hitherto not
in existence in Nigeria into Lagos.
Besides, the Governor said he was excited
about the fact that the firm was not just
establishing a factory here in Lagos, but also
a training centre where Nigerians will be
trained, adding that he would stop at nothing
to encourage investors such as The Knauf
Group.
Earlier, Isabel Knauf said the team was at
the Lagos House to brief Governor Ambode
on the progress made so far since the
project started in September 2015.
She said the firm has 23 training centres all
over the world training about 14,000 people
annually, and that they would like to build
the same training centre in Lagos where
architects, civil engineers and craftsmen
would be trained on how to technically
install their products.
She said upon completion of the factory, the
firm would create 25,000 direct employment,
adding that the training centre will cost
about two million Euros to establish, while at
least 800 Nigerians will be trained annually in
the first phase.
Knauf, however, solicited the support of the
State Government in land space for the
training centre and permit issues, a request
which was instantly granted by the Governor.

By Henry Umoru ABUJA- THERE was pandemonium Thursday in Okpella, Estako East Local Government area of Edo State as supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP clashed with those of the All Progressives Congress, APC. It was gathered that the incident started brewing in the early hours of yesterday when some PDP supporters were alleged to have threatened to carry out attack on any Okpellan supporting the ruling APC in Okpella. The clash came barely some hours to the announcement of the postponement of Saturday, September 10 Edo State gubernatorial election by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC. The clash is also coming barely three days after a youth body in Okpella, Okpella Youth Council, warned in a recent publication of a possible inversion of the community by thugs hired by unknown politicians in Okpella. It was also gathered that the youths were initially reacting to an alleged gun shot at the gate of a PDP stalwart in Okpella that took place at about 3am on Thursday. According to an eyewitness and a victim of the attack who spoke on phone, Afebu Musa, said they summoned a meeting to explain more details to party supporters who were curious about the likelihood of the election in Edo State to hold on Saturday after reports from the police and DSS that there is a security threat in the state. Afebu said, “We were at a meeting when they were passing during their own campaign and they stopped shouting who is doing this here. “I could hear some of them saying, this will not happen! How come they are still not been deflected? ” “As if the property they destroyed were not enough, they have chased my pregnant wife and one of my tenants who they injured from my house”. “I sneaked out of my house with the help of God and I don’t know how to go back home because the police in Okpella were helpless today at the scene of the incident”. “We call on security agencies to help save us from the hands of these boys. We have been peaceful all this while and no one has found us wanting throughout the campaigns but I am surprise to see this happening.” http://www.vanguardngr. com/2016/09/edo-election-tension-okpella-pdp- apc-supporters-clash/

The Federal Government has described as sadly
out of tune with reality the published letter from
US Congressman Tom Marino to Secretary of
State John Kerry, asking the US to withhold
security assistance to Nigeria on the strength of
some imaginary infraction by the Buhari
Administration.
In a statement issued in Abuja on Sunday, the
Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai
Mohammed, said Congressman Marino was
poorly informed about the issues he commented
on, wondering why he did not take the pains to
get first hand information from the US Embassy in
Nigeria or any other credible source before
engaging in what is nothing but a ‘propaganda of
his own imagination’.
The Minister said by asking the US to refrain from
selling warplanes and other military equipment to
Nigeria based on a faulty premise, the
Congressman has demonstrated a poor
understanding of global security issues.
‘’Insecurity anywhere is insecurity everywhere.
Had Congressman Marino understood this, he
would not have made the kind of call he made
concerning the US security assistance to Nigeria.
The Boko Haram insurgency that Nigeria has
decisively dealt with under President Muhammadu
Buhari is not just a Nigerian problem but a
regional and international crisis,’’ he said.
Alhaji Mohammed said Congressman Marino
definitely did not have Nigeria in mind when he
wrote that the US should withhold security
assistance to Nigeria until President Buhari
‘demonstrates a commitment to inclusive
government and the most basic tenets of
democracy: freedom to assemble and freedom of
speech’.
”An Administration that operates purely on the
basis of respect for the rule of law and a strict
adherence to constitutional order is not one to
deny the citizens of their constitutionally-
guaranteed rights. This Administration therefore
does not need the goading of Congressman
Marino or anyone for that matter to do what is
right.
”Concerning running an inclusive government, had
Congressman Marino done his home work before
dispatching his letter, he would have realized that
no part of the country is left out in the
distribution of political appointments, for example,
or in the appointment of Ministers, which was
done in accordance with the Constitution that
mandates that the President must appoint at
least one minister from each of the 36 states and
the Federal Capital Territory.
”Had the Congressman sought information from
credible sources before engaging in a flight of
fancy, he would have been presented with a
comprehensive information on the appointment of
CEOs for Federal Government’s parastatals,
agencies and commissions that shows that the
appointments were almost evenly matched along
the line of the six geo-political zones in the
country: With the North West having 51, North
Central 46, North East 45, South East 41, South
West 45 and South South 45,’’ he said. ‘’The
Congressman may wish to note that each geo-
political zone comprises 6 states, with the
exception of North West (7) and South East (5).’’
The Minister described Congressman Marino’s
description of the Administration’s anti-corruption
efforts as ‘selective’ as a tired argument that
clearly shows that the US lawmaker must have
appended his signature to someone’s concocted
line.
”That line was invented by those seeking to cause
an unnecessary distraction from the
Administration’s anti-corruption efforts, and it
has been roundly rejected. Congressman Marino’s
decision to exhume the dead postulation without
an iota of proof is a reflection of whose side he
has taken in the ongoing efforts to rid Nigeria of
corrupt elements. Needless to say that the anti-
corruption battle will continue unhindered,
irrespective of whose ox is gored. And in this
fight, only the guilty needs be afraid,’’ he said.
Alhaji Mohammed said Nigeria is delighted that
US Secretary of State John Kerry, to whom the
Congressman addressed his letter, is more
knowledgeable, better briefed and definitely more
hands on concerning Nigerian issues
