Why we can’t renovate Abeokuta train station road – Ogun Govt

0
2 mn read

The Ogun State Government has said reconstruction on the Laderin-Train Station road in Abeokuta, the state capital, cannot begin unless the Federal Government grants approval.

Recall that in 2023, some residents of Laderin, Olokuta, and Idi-Aba communities in the Abeokuta South Local Government area of the state had lamented the deplorable state of the road.

The road connects over 40 communities and serves as a main link to the popular Wole Soyinka Train Station.

Residents and commuters described the condition of the road as hellish, especially when it rains.

Responding to the agitation, the Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure, Engr Ade Akinsanya noted that the government had already programmed the road for reconstruction.

However, the state government on Tuesday in a post made on its X handle said the worn-out pathway leading to the train station falls under the purview of the Federal Government and requires permission from the Minister of Works before reconstruction can begin.

The post reads: “On the worn-out pathway leading to the Abeokuta train station!

“This is a matter close to our hearts. Enhancing this route holds promise of rendering train travel more enjoyable.

“Yet, we tread cautiously, refraining from vocalizing our concerns, lest it be misconstrued as making excuses.

“Debates ensue, tangled in bureaucratic intricacies, as this particular stretch, albeit short, falls under the purview of the Federal Government, responsible for its upkeep.

“To embark on reconstruction, the State Government requires a permission from the Minister. However, obtaining such authorization proves a sluggish ordeal, hindered by bureaucratic inertia.

“It’s noteworthy that the Station Complex was conceptualized to coincide with the development of its surrounding arteries, an integral part of the overarching scheme.

“Recent developments have seen the Federal Government granting approval for the Ogun State Government to undertake the reconstruction of the Lagos-Ota-Abeokuta Road, a triumph after years of persistent appeals by the incumbent Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun.”

Politicians will no longer contest election with fake certificates – Nigerian institute vows

0
2 mn read

The National Chartered Institute of Forensics and Certified Fraud Investigators of Nigeria has announced plans to ensure that dubious politicians no longer contest elections with forged certificates in the country.

Dr Iliyasu Gashinbaki, Pioneer President and Chairman Governing Council, made this known during a meeting with the leadership of national Inter-Party Advisory Council, IPAC in Abuja on Tuesday.

He said the institute will work with IPAC to help in the authentication of documents of aspirants even before the primary elections in the 2027 general elections.

“Politics is too important to be left in the hands of politicians. We will engage all political parties, through IPAC to see how we can strengthen the electoral management process. We’ve had several instances where we know that if forensic tools had been deployed it would have saved the country embarrassment and even the stress the electorate went through,” he said.

“A typical case in point is the case of Bayelsa where the election of an elected governor was nullified because of certificate forgery that shouldn’t have happened.

“The person that the masses elected was a different person and the court nulified it. We’re talking to all the political parties in Nigeria. We’ve seen the decline of governance in Africa .

“This is the reason for multiple coups across Africa. One of the ways to address impunity is to tackle the recruitment process of people that occupy political offices from the councilor to the President.

“For this reason, we are setting up two laboratories that would be too critical for the 2027 general elections to ensure that no dubious or forged document of any kind will be submitted by politicians during the elections.

“We’ve had instances of forged NYSC certificates, tax clearance certificates, academic certificates filled in by politicians like in the case of Bayelsa, to stand for elections and this leads the country to embarrassment and the electorate are shortchanged.

“We’ll work with IPAC to help in authentication of the documents of candidates that would stand elections before the primary elections.”

Also speaking, the Chairman of IPAC, and National Chairman of Allied People’s Movement, APM, Alhaji Yusuf Dantalle, said, “One day, I pray we’ll all agree as Nigerians that we want a better system for all of us.

“As long as we refuse to domesticate the solutions to our problems or refused to identify the foundation of our problems because I think some of these problems are self-inflicted because we know what to do to get out of the mess we’re in but somehow, for personal gain, we do not want to.

“This partnership, for me and the council, is a welcome development. It must be encouraged and consolidated.”

The troops of Theatre Command, North East, ‘Operation Hadin Kai’ have successfully eliminated a top commander of the Jamā’at Ahl as-Sunnah lid-Da’wah wa’l-Jihād, otherwise known as Boko Haram, Tahir Baga.

This followed the continuation of major offensive at terrorists enclaves in Sambisa Forest.

According to Vanguard, sources revealed that Tahir was neutralized on May 13, 2024, when the troops unleashing the major operation codenamed ‘Operation Desert Sanity III’, moved down terrorists’ enclaves of Shababul Umma, Garin Panel Beater and Lagara Anguwan Gwaigwai right at the heart of the forest.

Intelligence sources and Zagazola Makama, a Counterinsurgency Expert and Security Analyst in the Lake Chad region also confirmed the incident to newsmen on Tuesday.

It was gathered that, in the course of the offensive, contact was made with the terrorists which led to the defeat of the terrorist top commander as well as some of his lieutenants while several others escaped with gunshot wounds.

“Tahir Baga, was a close Ally to Abubakar Shekau. He was among the first sets who founded the Boko Haram movement in Maiduguri before moving into Sambisa Forest with the likes of Mamman Nur, Khalid Albarnawi, Abubakar Shekau, Kaka Ali, Mustapha Chad, Abu Maryam and Abu Krimima.

“Tahir Baga was a revered Imam who was respected among the Sect group. He had on several basis truncated efforts of many fighters and their families to surrender and has also pushed many under aged girls to go on suicide bombing after convincing that they will be granted paradise as everlasting reward,” the source said.

The killing of Tahir Baga is a major blow to the Boko Haram terrorists group.

Another source, according to Vanguard, said “the neutralizing and sacking of terrorist communities also led to the rescue of 14 persons comprising 4 women and 10 children from the terrorists’ captivity”.

BNXN asks fans to stop pitting him against his friends

In a tweet on his official X account on May 13, 2024, BNXN posted that people should stop pitting him against his friends for entertainment.

BNXN is known for being one of the most recognisable voices in Nigerian mainstream pop music and he has continued to dazzle since breaking into the mainstream.

BNXN’s decision to speak up over the comparisons with Ayra Starr over who was the better vocalist suggests that the hitmaker wants to avoid a repeat of the issue with Ruger after both artists got into a feud after they were pitted against each other by random fans on social media.

BNXN and Ruger would later make up after their very public feud with the two becoming friends again and recently releasing a joint EP titled ‘RnB’ with the popular tracks ‘Romeo Must Die’ and ‘Ilashe’.

<img class="image lazyloaded imgWithMetaData" title="BNXN & Ruger have released their collaboration 'Romeo Must Die'" src="data:;base64,” alt=”BNXN & Ruger have released their collaboration ‘Romeo Must Die'” width=”790″ height=”987″ data-original=”https://ocdn.eu/pulscms-transforms/1/-JpktkpTURBXy9kZmRkNDc0MjY0M2U2NzZlMTRlYzYzZjZhMTIyMjUxNy5wbmeRlQLNAxbNA9vCww” />

Ayra Starr has been unperturbed by the online comparisons as she’s gearing up for the release of her sophomore album expected to be out sometime in May 2024.

The Grammy-nominated star recently released a new song ‘No Bad Vibe’ featuring Seyi Vibez as one of the lead singles to her second album ‘The Year I Turned 21’ which features guest appearances from AsakeGiveonCoco JonesAniita, and her brother Milar.

Anambra: Fuel scarcity hinders economic activities in Onitsha

The recent petrol scarcity has continued to hinder economic activities in Onitsha, the commercial hub of Anambra.

he recent scarcity of petrol has continued to hinder economic activities in Onitsha, the commercial hub of Anambra.

Before the current scarcity, some filling stations in the Onitsha metropolis dispensed fuel at N690 and N720 per litre.

However, some filling stations now dispense the product at N800, N820 and N850 per litre, while others remain shut.

The commissioner for petroleum and mineral resources, Anthony Ifeanya, hinted on Saturday that the state government had resolved to check the trend.

According to him, the Anambra government monitors filing stations that tampered with their dispensing meters.

Some residents said in separate interviews on Tuesday in Onitsha that petrol scarcity had undoubtedly affected their daily businesses and caused them untold hardship.

A trader, Kenneth Nwanbunwanne, said the recent fuel scarcity affected the people negatively.

According to him, the people of the area are now paying N200 for a journey that was supposed to cost N150 and N300 for a trip that they are supposed to pay N200 if not for the scarcity.

He said, “My major concern is that the price of petrol is not stable; you get it at prices that are always high. Again, what is causing the scarcity is not known to the masses.

“We are not even sure when it will end. The government needs to do something urgent to end this current situation. The poor masses are suffering. We now pay N300 for a journey of N200.

“Situations like this create room for owners of filling stations to acquire wealth at the expense of the masses; situations like this also create room for more hardship, as fuel products are often not available to all.”

A commercial bus driver, Joe Uche, who plies Nkpor Old Road to the popular Upper Iweka, said that the current fuel scarcity in the state has caused low patronage in their daily business.

“Overtime, scarcity like this will create room for adulterated fuel capable of causing damage to one’s car if you are unlucky to purchase such,” said Mr Uche.

Esther Chukwunoso, who hawks goods, lamented that most filling stations were no longer dispensing Petroleum products due to the scarcity.

She said the development had a negative impact on her business.

An advisory by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) cautioned Nigerians against panic buying petrol, saying there was enough supply for the country.

Toyin Abraham’s praise for Kehinde Bankole’s AMVCA win ignited an online debate, sparking speculation of a rivalry with Funke Akindele.

Toyin Abraham sparked debate online by praising Kehinde Bankole for her AMVCA victory as Best Lead Actress

Among the highlights was Kehinde Bankole’s win for Best Lead Actress in the movie, Adire.

Fellow Nollywood actress and filmmaker Toyin Abraham, has joined the multitude of people who have congratulated the actress, in a video that’s now causing a stir online. The Ijakumo actress enthusiastically celebrated Bankole in the now-viral video, and declared her the “Best Actress.”.

Bankole’s victory, her second AMVCA win, came at the expense of strong nominees including Funke Akindele (A Tribe Called Judah)Adaobi Dibor (Blood Vessel), Evelyne Ily (Mami Wata), Segilola Ogidan (Over The Bridge), Lucie Debay (Omen), Omowunmi Dada (Asiri Ade), and Ireti Doyle (The Origin: Madam Koi Koi).

Abraham’s unrestrained celebration has ignited online debate. Some fans view it as a heartwarming display of support, while others speculate on a potential rivalry between her and Akindele.

This is despite the fact Abraham recently attempted to mend fences with Akindele after the success of the latter’s A Tribe Called Judah, which grossed over a billion naira at the Nigerian box office. This public gesture led many to believe in a new era of collaboration between both.

However, Abraham’s praise for Kehinde, Akindele’s direct competitor at the AMVCA ceremony, has been interpreted by fans as throwing subtle shades.

Akindele holds the record for the most AMVCA acting wins with five awards. She won her first in 2014, a year she was nominated for her leading roles in three different movies in the category of Best Actress in a Comedy. She won for her role in The Return of Sheri Koko.

Her other wins include Jenifa’s Diary (Best Actress in a Comedy, 2016, Best Actress in a Comedy Movie or TV Series, 2017, and Best Actress in a Comedy, 2020) and Omo Ghetto: The Saga (Best Actress in a Comedy, 2022).

Abraham also won the AMVCA’s Best Actress in a Drama, 2020 for Elevator Baby.

On the heels of the recently concluded Africa Magic Viewers Choice Awards on May 11, 2024, Isilomo took to her Instagram to rate the outfits worn by the attendees.

Among the stars whose fashion choices she rated was season 5 star Vee, who wore a bright pink gown with a deep neckline plunge. The gown, though short, was accentuated with a long train and matching pink gloves and her hair slicked backwards.

Vee posted the pictures she took before the prestigious event, showing off her gown. Isilomo reposted the post to her story and critiqued her outfit, rating it a 2/10.

Not too long after her post gained traction on social media, Isilomo deleted her review of Vee’s outfit from her Instagram story. However, Vee took to X and clapped back by saying that she was unaware of her colleague’s existence prior to the viral post.

She said, “I didn’t even know someone called Isilomo existed until today.”

Vee’s quick response led to humorous responses from her followers and other X users. One fan commented, “I saw this coming. That lady should be ready My Vee no Dey disappoint”.

PIA to boost Nigeria’s oil bidding success, says PETAN

Wole Ogunsanya, PETAN chairman, disclosed this at the just-concluded Offshore Technology Conference in Houston, Texas, U.S.

The Petroleum Technology Association of Nigeria (PETAN) has predicted that the nation’s Petroleum Industry Act (PIA) will enhance the success of the 2024 oil bidding round.

Wole Ogunsanya, PETAN chairman, disclosed this at the just-concluded Offshore Technology Conference in Houston, Texas, U.S.

Gbenga Komolafe, CEO of the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC), had said Nigeria would be placing 19 blocks.

These include 12 Petroleum Prospecting Leases, PPLs 300, 301, 3008, 3009, 2000, 2001, 267, 268, 269, 270, 271 and Petroleum Mining Lease, PML 51, and the Deep Offshore Blocs, PPLs 300, 301, 302, 303, 304, 305 and 306 before the local and international buyers for purchase.

Mr Ogunsanya said the PIA is comprehensive legislation that promotes restructuring, streamlining, transparency, and accountability in the oil and gas sector.

The PETAN chairman said PIA facilitates investors’ confidence and participation by simplifying the investment process.

According to him, it also offers clear returns on investments.

“We are seeing the good work that NUPRC is doing. The bid round will be successful. We are talking about big oil fields. These are deep water assets where billions of dollars will be spent. Of course, NUPRC will ensure that we attract the right investors.

“Some investors are already operating in Nigeria while others will come from outside the country. All we need to do is to present the assets to them,” he said.

Mr Ogunsanya noted that creating an environment encouraging investment benefits the industry and ensures broader macroeconomic implications. He explained that the revenue generated from these investments could be channelled into developing other sectors of the economy.

The PETAN boss highlighted the need for such investment in critical infrastructure, such as power assets, which would help improve the quality of life for Nigerians.

“The government is charging a reasonable signature bonus. This will enable investors to inject more resources into funding their capital projects, produce commercial oil and gas, and impact Nigeria’s economy,” he added.

Mr Ogunsanya expressed the commitment of the association and members to enhancing the bidding round.

He said, “All of our executive members are determined to make sure the bidding round is successful. We used to have meetings till late at night back home in Nigeria. We made sure we covered all the aspects of the OTC.

“A lot of oil was burned in the background. A lot of very smart chief executives did their best. Many of them have been doing these for 30 years, and their companies are successful.

“All of my executive members, from top to bottom, I trust every one of them that whatever assignment that we have for them is going to be done.”

Dremo doubles down as he releases new Sarkodie diss track

Dremo releases a second Sarkodie diss track as he awaits a reply.

Sarkodie‘s claims on ‘Brag’ have kicked off a rap beef between rappers in Nigeria and Ghana with Dremo being the first rapper to reply to Sarkodie before Ghanaian rapper Lyrical Joe replied to Dremo in what has become an online face-off.

In his reply to Sarkodie, Dremo chided him for name-dropping WizkidDavidoBurna Boy, and Asake by reminding him that the Nigerian superstars were doing better than him.

Dremo also disputed Sarkodie‘s claim to the African rap throne while mocking him for claiming his only competition is American rappers Kendrick Lamar & J Cole.

Sarkodie would offer a condescending reply to Dremo’s diss by stating that the Nigerian rapper had promise but needed some touches.

An undeterred Dremo has released a second diss track with the tagline ‘If You Cedis When Are You Ghana Reply’ which is a play on Drake’s 2015 album ‘If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late’.

On the new diss track, Dremo doubled down on his Sarkodie diss while demanding that the Ghanaian multi-awarding rapper reply.

In the new diss track, Dremo told the other Ghanaian rappers who have dissed him that he would reply to them after he gets a reply from Sarkodie while also demanding that the reply is in English instead of Twi which is Sarkodie’s favoured language.

It remains unsure whether Sarkodie would be willing to engage in rap beef with an eager Dremo, especially with Ghanaian rappers including Lyrical Joe and Medikal demanding that he doesn’t reply as he’s too big for such beef.
