LAMIDO GIVES CONDITION FOR SOUTH-SOUTH RESOURCE CONTROL....

The Lamido of Adamawa, Dr. Muhammadu Barkindo Mustapha, again on Tuesday stoked a fresh controversy at the ongoing National Conference when he gave a stringent condition for a 100 per cent resource control.

He also kicked against autonomy for ethnic nationalities in Nigeria, saying it would give room for many demands.

In a tacit reference to the people of the Niger-Delta who have been clamouring for resource control, Mustapha said they should be ready to lose their lands in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.

The latest controversy is coming barely two weeks after the monarch had told the conference that his kingdom extended to Cameroon and he still had his kith and kins there who would receive him and his people if the North seceded from Nigeria.

YET ANOTHER HYPOCRITE - FANI KAYODE VISITS THE MAN HE TERMED "THE PRESIDENT WITHOUT BALLS".

Nigerian politicians and their cohorts are just weird set of humans. 

First, it was the most outspoken critic of government who was the Chairman of the Editorial board of Guardian Newspaper, Mr. Reuben Abati who jumped ship and became the spokesman of the same government he criticized vehemently.

Now, the two-faced FFK, who has written many articles lambasting the government has changed the tune of his song.

President Goodluck Jonathan on Tuesday met behind closed doors with a former Minister of Aviation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

Fani-Kayode, who is one of the major critics of the Jonathan administration, attended the meeting which was held inside the President’s office with an unidentified man.

He, however, told state house correspondents at the end of the meeting that lasted about an hour, that there was nothing unusual in his visit to  the President, saying he was delighted he did so.

ULTIMATE WARRIOR (JAMES HELLWIG) DIES AT 54.

The WWE released a statement confirming the death of The Ultimate Warrior only days after he had been inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame and had made appearances at Wrestlemania 30 and on Monday Night Raw, which marked his first appearance on the show in 18 years.

Warrior – Hellwig legally changed his name to Warrior in 1993 – is easily one of the most famous and one of the most popular wrestlers to have participated in the WWE and will be remembered for an epic victory over Hulk Hogan at Wrestlemania XI, as well as his signature clothesline, running splash and gorilla press drop moves.

HE BEAT HULK HOGEAN IN ONE OF THE GREATEST MATCHES EVER

He fought in the WWE (then the WWF) from 1987 to 1991 and again from 1992 to 1996 and briefly fought in World Championship Wrestling (WCW) in 1998 before retiring from professional wrestling in 1999 and beginning a public speaking career.

Warrior is survived by his wife Dana and his two daughters and our thoughts are with them and his extended family at this difficult time.

May he rest in peace.

TUFACE THE WISE INVESTOR.

Like P-Square voiced in their latest TESTIMONY track, "Using my sense to gather the property because no one knows tomorrow",  Naija's legendary hiphop artistes Tuface Idibia is doing just that.

THE UNIBEN STAMPEDE - ANOTHER IGNORED TRAGEDY.

Scarcities create desperation. The authorities are ignoring this fact as they mangle the future of Nigeria with policies that do not serve even the present. Millions of our people cannot access the basics for living.

They strive, they toil, yet at the vital moments, governments and their organisations are to play a role, efforts dissolve into nothingness and  in most circumstances, deaths follow. The most current mode of death is stampedes.

After the Nigeria immigration Service, NIS, recruitment exercise that claimed 19 lives, we are still paying minimal attention to crowd management. Worse still, we are not thinking of ways of handing such exercises without thousands of people being assembled and subjected to dehumanising conditions.

LAGOS BOAT ACCIDENTS AND UNSAFE WATERWAYS.

After two passenger boats sank within three weeks, we are likely heading to the wrong reaction if we may just ban water transportation! The stand of most commentators on the matter points to this direction. It is like recommending decapitation as cure for headaches.

Cities like Lagos can benefit a lot from the waters around them. What would Venice or Amsterdam be without their waters? They have put them to good uses, creating efficiencies in transportation and living with their waters.

Boat tragedies are no excuses for banning water transportation. They are rather challenges to regulatory standards that guide the uses of our waters.  We have to use our waters more; we have to work on regulations and implementation standards that would ensure safety.

UPDATE ON #IBADANFORESTOFHORROR - FORENSIC EXPERTS VISITS SITE.

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT'S N114B IS MISSING IN TRANSIT.

It sounds so bizarre that allocations to some Federal Government agencies in excess of N114 billion have been lost in transit. But for a parliamentary inquest, the public would not even have known this. For President Goodluck Jonathan, always dismissive of the abysmal level of corruption in the country, this matter presents further evidence. Since March 14, the House of Representatives Committee on Public Accounts has been quizzing officials of the Budget Office, Central Bank of Nigeria, Police Force, Ministry of Police Affairs and Office of the Head of Service of the Federation on this tangled skein.

 At the behest of the President, Lamido Sanusi, the suspended Governor, Central Bank of Nigeria, had remitted N19.7 billion to the Ministry of Police Affairs, for the police to buy “armoured helicopters and security equipment.” Sanusi stated this in his reply to the government’s allegation of financial recklessness against him. Curiously, both the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Abubakar, and the ministry, told the House committee that they did not see the cash.

NIGERIA EMERGES BIGGEST ECONOMY IN AFRICA WITH $510B YET 70% OF ITS POPULATION STILL LIVE IN POVERTY.

Nigeria's recalculated economy is worth $510 billion, by far the biggest in Africa, officials announced Sunday using long overdue revised data that gives the West African nation continental bragging rights but does little for the 70 percent of its citizens living in poverty.

The new value of Nigeria's GDP adds previously uncounted industries like telecommunications, information technology, music, airlines, burgeoning online retail outlets and Nollywood film production that didn't exist when the last GDP count was made in 1990. Then, there were 300,000 landlines. Today, Nigeria has 100 million cell phone users.

The new figures also will take account of growth in agriculture and tourism that have flourished since democracy was restored in 1999, ending decades of military dictatorship.
