Biography of Bola Ahmed Tinubu

0

His excellency Chief Bola Ahmed Adekunle Tinubu GCFR (born 29 March 1952) is a Nigerian politician who is the 16th and current president of Nigeria.[1] He was the governor of Lagos State from 1999 to 2007; and senator for Lagos West in the Third Republic.

Tinubu spent his early life in southwestern Nigeria and later moved to the United States where he studied Accounting at Chicago State University.

He returned to Nigeria in the early 1990s and was employed by Mobil Nigeria as an accountant, before entering politics as a Lagos West senatorial candidate in 1992 under the banner of the Social Democratic Party.

After dictator Sani Abacha dissolved the Senate in 1993, Tinubu became an activist campaigning for the return of democracy as a part of the National Democratic Coalition movement.

In the first post-transition Lagos State gubernatorial election, Tinubu won by a wide margin as a member of the Alliance for Democracy.

Four years later, he won re-election to a second term.

After leaving office in 2007, he played a key role in the formation of the All-Progressives Congress in 2013. In 2023, he was elected president of Nigeria.

Background

Tinubu was born in Lagos into the merchant family of Abibatu Mogaji, the Ìyál’ọ́jà of Lagos. He is generally accepted in reliable sources to have been born in 1952;[2] this year of birth is sometimes disputed by political opponents, who argue that he is much older. Some reliable sources note that his age has not been verified.[3][4]

Education

Tinubu attended St. John’s Primary School, Aroloya, Lagos before proceeding to Children Home School in Ibadan.

He completed undergraduate studies in the United States, first at Richard J. Daley College in Chicago and then at Chicago State University.

He graduated in 1979 with a Bachelor of Science degree in accounting.

Professional career

Tinubu worked as an accountant for the American companies Arthur AndersenDeloitte and GTE Services Corporation.

After returning to Nigeria in 1983, he joined Mobil Oil Nigeria, and later became a company executive.

Early political career

Tinubu’s political career began in 1991, when he joined the Social Democratic Party.

Third Republic

In 1992, he was elected to the Senate, representing the Lagos West constituency in the short-lived Nigerian Third Republic.[11]

After the results of the 12 June 1993 presidential elections were annulled, Tinubu became a founding member of the pro-democracy National Democratic Coalition, a group which mobilized support for the restoration of democracy and recognition of Moshood Abiola as winner of the 12 June election.

Exile and return

Following the seizure of power as military head of state of General Sani Abacha, he went into exile in 1994 and returned to the country in 1998 after the death of the military dictator, which ushered in the transition to the Fourth Nigerian Republic.

In the run-up to the 1999 elections, Bola Tinubu was a protégé of Alliance for Democracy (AD) leaders Abraham Adesanya and Ayo Adebanjo. He went on to win the AD primaries for the Lagos State governorship elections in defeating Funsho Williams and Wahab Dosunmu, a former Minister of Works and Housing.

In January 1999, he stood for the position of Governor of Lagos State on the AD ticket and was elected governor.

Governor of Lagos State (1999–2007)

During his 8 years in government, Tinubu initiated new road construction, required to meet the needs of the fast-growing population of the state.

Tinubu, alongside a new deputy governor, Femi Pedro, won re-election into office as governor in April 2003.

All other states in the Southwest fell to the People’s Democratic Party in those elections.

He was involved in a struggle with the Olusegun Obasanjo-controlled federal government over whether Lagos State had the right to create new Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs) to meet the needs of its large population.

The controversy led to the federal government seizing funds meant for local councils in the state.

 During the latter part of his term in office, he was engaged in continuous clashes with PDP powers such as Adeseye Ogunlewe, a former Lagos State senator who had become minister of works, and Bode George, the southwest chairman of the PDP.

In 2006, Tinubu attempted to persuade the then-vice president of Nigeria Atiku Abubakar to become the head of his party, the Action Congress (AC).

Abubakar who was a member of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), had recently fallen out with President Olusegun Obasanjo over Abubakar’s ambition to succeed Obasanjo as president.

Tinubu offered Abubakar the chance to switch parties and join the AC, offering him his party’s presidential candidacy, with the condition that he, Tinubu, would be Atiku Abubakar’s running mate.

Atiku declined the proposition and, having switched to the AC, chose a running mate from the Southeast, Senator Ben Obi.

Although Atiku ran for office on Tinubu’s platform in the election, the PDP still won, in a landslide.

Relations between Tinubu and deputy governor Femi Pedro became increasingly tense after Pedro declared his intention to run for the gubernatorial elections.

Pedro competed to become the AC candidate for governor in the 2007 elections but withdrew his name on the eve of the party nomination.

He defected to the Labour Party while still keeping his position as deputy governor.

 Tinubu’s tenure as Lagos State Governor ended on 29 May 2007, when his successor Babatunde Fashola of the Action Congress took office.

Pre-presidency (2007–2023)

2007 general election

In 2009, following the landslide victory of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the April 2007 elections, Tinubu became involved in negotiations to bring together the fragmented opposition parties into a “mega-party” capable of challenging the then ruling PDP.

 In March 2009, there were reports that a plot had been identified to assassinate Tinubu.

In February 2013, Tinubu was among several politicians who created a “mega opposition” party with the merger of Nigeria’s three biggest opposition parties – the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), the All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP), a faction of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) and the new PDP (nPDP), a faction of the then ruling People’s Democratic Party – into the All Progressives Congress (APC).

All Progressives Congress

In 2014, Tinubu supported former military head of state General Muhammadu Buhari, leader of the CPC faction of the APC – who commanded widespread following in Northern Nigeria, and had previously contested in the 20032007 and 2011 presidential elections as the CPC presidential candidate.

Tinubu initially wanted to become Buhari’s vice presidential candidate but later conceded for Yemi Osibanjo, his ally and former commissioner of justice.

 In 2015, Buhari rode the APC to victory, ending the 16-year rule of the PDP, and marking the first time an incumbent Nigerian president lost to an opposition candidate.

Tinubu went on to play an important role in the Buhari administration, supporting government policies and holding onto the internal party reins, in lieu of his long-held rumored presidential aspiration.

 In 2019, he supported Buhari’s re-election campaign defeating the PDP candidate Atiku Abubakar.

In 2020, following an internal party crisis which led to the removal of Tinubu ally and party chairman Adams Oshiomole, it is believed the move was to scuttle Tinubu’s presidential prospects ahead of 2023.

2023 presidential election

On 10 January 2022, Tinubu made his formal announcement of candidacy for president.

On 8 June 2022, Tinubu won the party convention vote of the ruling APC, scoring 1,271, to defeat Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and Rotimi Amaechi who scored 235 and 316 respectively. [

On 1 March 2023, INEC declared Tinubu winner of the 2023 presidential election.[38] He was declared president-elect after he polled 8,794,726 votes to defeat his opponents.

His runner-up Atiku Abubakar of the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP) polled 6,984,520 votes. Labour Party’s Peter Obi had 6,101,533 votes to come third.

Presidency (2023–present)

Tinubu constitutionally began his presidency on 29 May 2023. He was sworn in as President of Nigeria by the Chief Justice of Nigeria Olukayode Ariwoola at 10:41 AM (WAT) at an inauguration ceremony held in Eagle Square in Abuja.

His government having cleared the legal hurdles of the opposition following the March election is generally accepted unopposed and has international legitimacy.

Several heads of state and government attended the swearing-in ceremony.

Tinubu was conferred with the highest national Honor of the Grand Commander of the Order of the Federal Republic by his predecessor Muhammadu Buhari, and his Vice President Kashim Shettima with the second highest honor of the Grand Commander of the Order of the Niger on 25 May 2023.

Tinubu in his inaugural address promulgated the removal of the government subsidy on fuel.

The statement in his inaugural address caused initial panic buy and an overnight increase in price at fuel pump stations in Nigeria.

The national labor union NLC called for nationwide strike and protests over the increase in fuel price, which was later called off amidst ongoing negotiations with government representatives.

The government subsidy on fuel consumption has caused a hemorrhage on the Nigerian public purse for decades and the removal was lauded as a positive development by the World Bank for the Nigerian economy.

President Tinubu on the night of 9 June suspended Godwin Emefiele the powerful governor of the central bank of Nigeria.

Emefiele’s suspension was the second ever a head of the apex bank in its history was removed by a Nigerian president.

Emefiele was arrested by Nigerian secret police SSS in Lagos attempting to flee the country to Benin.

The suspension was viewed as a positive development  Emefiele as a conservative banker ascribed to the old school of propping up the Nigerian naira.

 Emefiele was replaced by one of his more economical liberal deputies Folashodun Adebisi as acting governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria in a statement by the presidency “sequel to the ongoing investigation of his office and the planned reforms in the financial sector of the economy”.

 The suspension and subsequent arrest of Emefiele by secret police on charges of terrorism financing is seen as not far removed from his ideological leanings and politicizing of the apex bank with his initiatives in office such as arbitrage under the Buhari administration and a currency redesign of the Nigerian naira.

 However, some observers have noted the role of politics in Emefiele’s suspension amid a clandestine raise in government debt borrowing ceiling from 5% to 15% through ways and means on the eve of the inauguration of President Tinubu.

On the back of his suspension the apex bank five days later on 14 June removed all foreign exchange trading restrictions and allowed the national currency to fall to its lowest ever on the market.

The move though not unprecedented signaled what was expected after the suspension.

Tinubu’s financial reforms has been seen as surpassing the 1986 SAP regime in a bid to drastically overhaul the Nigerian economy and government finances since the return of democracy two decades ago.

On 15 June, President Tinubu inaugurated the national economic council chaired by Vice President Shettima.

The Council is mandated to advise the President on economic affairs and is composed of the governor of the central bank and all state governors of the federation.

Tinubu’s close associate investment banker Wale Edun is the monetary policy czar.

President Tinubu appointed on 3 June Senator George Akume as the Secretary to the Government of the Federation and Femi Gbajabiamila as Chief of Staff to the President. Tinubu suspended the EFCC chairman Abdulrasheed Bawa on 9 June and Nigerian secret police arrested him for abuse of office on the same day following a standoff between SSS agents and the EFFC in Lagos.

His suspension like Emefiele’s involved a lot of intrigues as Bawa had previously placed Tinubu under investigation.

Bawa was replaced with Abdulkarim Chukkol as acting chairman of the EFCC.

President Tinubu on 19 June proclaimed Mallam Nuhu Ribadu as the National Security Adviser.

The appointment of Nuhu Ribadu, a former police officer, was viewed as a radical turn from the military establishment which has long dominated the state security apparatus of Nigeria.

President Tinubu purged the leadership of the entire armed and paramilitary forces on 19 June retiring in the process over one hundred and fifty major generals.

The direction of state security under Tinubu is expected to be led by civilian control of the military under the Office of the National Security Adviser, a statutory constitutional body established in 1993.

Tinubu embarked on his first foreign visit as Nigerian president to Paris on 21 June to attend a global financial summit held at Palais Boignart from 22 to 24 June.

He left Paris for London on a “private visit” where he met with his predecessor Muhammadu Buhari.

Tinubu despite drastic changes in fiscal and monetary policies has yet to constitute his cabinet.

He has made calls for a coalition government in order to bring opposition leaders under him. [

 A constitutional amendment passed by his predecessor made provisions for the President to appoint Ministers within the first sixty days in office.

Tinubu dissolved the boards of all ministries, departments and agencies of Nigeria on 19 June.

Having spent one month in office and with the conclusion of parliamentary leadership elections Tinubu is constrained by law to send ministerial nominations to the Senate for hearing before July 29.

Ideology and public image

Tinubu has throughout his political career espoused a comprehensive political and economic platform.

Tinubu’s ideal of progressivism include the values of egalitarianismsocial justiceliberty, and the recognition of fundamental rights.

He views the state as a positive advocate for the public welfare and its intervention in Nigerian society as necessary to ensure equality, justice, and social harmony.

This ideal is not so far removed from his activism of democracy during the military dictatorship in Nigeria.

Economic views

His presidency and economic policies known as Tinubunomics is expected to be a politico-ideological departure from Buharism, albeit, most international economists are yet to ascertain the nature of this departure in economic terms although reforms in his first month in office has shown a departure from the previous administration.

The World Bank and IMF have pointed out the need for the incoming government to establish macro-structural adjustments on the scale of the late 1980s reform to re-herald the Nigerian economy amidst a global slowdown.

Tinubunomics has been outlined in a book he co-authored with Brian Browne, an American consul general in Lagos.

The Lion of Bourdillon

Tinubu has been widely perceived as the “Godfather of Lagos”.

 His role in pulling the strings of the mega city-state was exposed in The Lion of Bourdillon, a 2015 documentary film highlighting Tinubu’s political and financial grip on the city-state. Tinubu filed a ₦150 billion libel suit against the producers, Africa Independent Television (AIT).

The documentary ceased airing on 6 March 2015. He has attempted to strongarm the political process, including in December 2009, when it was reported that Fashola and Tinubu had fallen out over the issue of Fashola’s re-election as Governor of Lagos in 2011, with Tinubu preferring the commissioner for environment, Muiz Banire.

A similar conflict took place in 2015 over Fashola’s successor, Akinwunmi Ambode, pitting Fashola against Tinubu, who threw his full weight behind Ambode.

Ambode succeeded Fashola, was ousted by Tinubu and replaced by incumbent Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

Allegations of corruption

In 1993, his assets were frozen by the United States government as a result of a court case asserting that the American government had “probable cause” to believe Tinubu’s American bank accounts held the proceeds of heroin dealing.

He settled with the U.S. government and forfeited about $460,000 later that year.

Court documents and later reporting on the case suggested he worked in league with two Chicago heroin dealers.

In April 2007, after the general elections, but before the governor elect Babatunde Fashola had taken office, the Federal Government brought Tinubu before the Code of Conduct Bureau for trial over the alleged illegal operation of 16 separate foreign accounts.

In January 2009, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission cleared Tinubu and governors James Ibori of Delta State and Obong Victor Attah of Akwa Ibom State of charges of conspiracy, money laundering, abuse of office and official corruption in relation to a sale of Vmobile network shares in 2004.

In September 2009, there were reports that the British Metropolitan Police were investigating a transaction in which the Lagos State government made an investment in Econet (now Airtel).

Tinubu said the transaction was straightforward and profitable to the state, with no intermediaries involved.

 The Federal Government rejected a request by Britain to release evidence needed for further investigation and prosecution of the three Nigerian ex-governors in a London court.

During the 2019 election, a bullion van was seen entering Tinubu’s residence on Bourdillion Road in Ikoyi, which caused him to later exclaim: “I keep money anywhere I want.”

Personal life

Tinubu married Oluremi Tinubu, who is a former senator representing the Lagos Central senatorial district, in 1987.

They have 3 children, Zainab Abisola Tinubu, Habibat Tinubu and Olayinka Tinubu.

He fathered 3 children from previous relationships, Kazeem Olajide Tinubu (12 October 1974 – 31 October 2017), Folashade Tinubu (born 17 June 1976) and Oluwaseyi Tinubu (born 13 October 1985), whose mother is rumored to be the former air hostess and prophetess Bunmi Oshonike.

Tinubu’s mother, Abibatu Mogaji, died on 15 June 2013 at the age of 96.

On 31 October 2017, his son, Jide Tinubu, died in London.

Tinubu is a Muslim.

Canada opens new pathway for carpenters, plumbers, welders from Nigeria

0

Canada has introduced a new immigration opportunity targeted at carpenters, plumbers, and welders from various countries, including Nigeria.

The Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) made the announcement in a statement on Tuesday, unveiling a streamlined immigration pathway specifically tailored for skilled workers specializing in carpentry, plumbing, and welding.

According to Marc Miller, the minister of IRCC, addressing the shortage of skilled trades workers in the country is of utmost importance.

Therefore, providing assistance to the construction sector in recruiting and retaining the skilled workforce it requires has become a crucial aspect of the solution.

This recent category-based selection is an acknowledgement of the essential role these skilled trades workers play in Canada, and the government looks forward to welcoming more of these talented individuals into the country.

Previously, in May, Sean Fraser, the former minister of IRCC, had announced changes to Express Entry through category-based selection. This new process aimed to welcome skilled newcomers with work experience in priority jobs as permanent residents.

Express Entry is an online system utilized by the Canadian government to grant permanent residence to skilled workers.

It serves as the main pathway for managing skilled worker applications for Canadian immigration.

 

According to lawyers at First Immigration Law Firm based in Canada, there are several ways for professionals and workers to qualify for a Canadian immigration permanent resident visa.

The most prominent option is through Express Entry, specifically the Federal Skilled Worker Program or Canadian Experience Class. Meeting the requirements of these programs makes applicants eligible for entry into Canada under the Express Entry system.

HEALTH! Breastfeeding reduces risk of breast cancer, mental obesity – expert reveals

0

The Executive Secretary, Yobe Primary Health Care Board, Dr Babagana Machina, has said the breastfeeding reduces the risk of breast cancer and maternal obesity.

Machina stated this in Potiskum on Wednesday at the inauguration of the 2023 World Breastfeeding Week.

According to him, six months of exclusive breastfeeding minimizes childhood infections and increases the intelligence of babies.

He noted that breast milk is a unique nutritional source that cannot be replaced by any other food, including well-formulated infant formula.

Machina, therefore, called on critical stakeholders to assist in promoting exclusive breastfeeding for the healthy development of babies.

In his remarks, Alhaji Abdullahi Jawa, Permanent Secretary of the state’s Ministry of Health, said the week-long event had the theme: “Enable Breastfeeding – making a difference for working parents”.

He expressed optimism that the event would foster the adoption of exclusive breastfeeding among nursing mothers.

Jawa also said that Gov. Mai Mala Buni had recently approved the expansion of free maternal neonatal and child health services to cover all pregnant women and under-five children.

The permanent secretary said the approval was part of efforts to reduce maternal mortality and morbidity in the state.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that highlights of the occasion included presentation of gifts to 11 women who exclusively breastfed their babies for six months.

SUBSIDY!! Lagos state slashes BRT- Bus fares by 50%

0

In an effort to mitigate the impact of fuel subsidy removal, the Lagos State Government has implemented a 50 percent reduction in transportation costs for all state-owned transport systems.

Additionally, the government has made a commitment to distribute food supplies to the vulnerable population in the state.

Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu addressed the public during a press briefing at the Lagos House, Ikeja, on Monday, emphasizing the state’s determination to introduce these measures as palliatives to alleviate the hardships caused by the removal of fuel subsidies for citizens.

The governor stated that the 50 percent reduction in transportation expenses will be effective starting from Wednesday, August 2, 2023.

He added that modalities have also been put in place by the informal transportation sector, especially the yellow buses, to slash their charges by 25 percent.

“We’ve had extensive conversations with all of the stakeholders in our transport system, both formal and informal modes of transportation, and we have come to a conclusion, which the state government will be supporting.

“Immediately from Wednesday, all public transportations that are being controlled by LAMATA, all of the high capacity buses, will be plying all the routes of Lagos at 50 per cent discount, and all commuters that will be plying these routes will start enjoying a 50 per cent rebate on the transport fares that are currently being charged on all of these routes,” the governor said.

He added, “For the informal buses, they are also going to make a pronouncement today, and I can say to you that we have agreed with them that they will be doing about 25 per cent reduction on their buses — all of the yellow buses that we have on the streets.”

Sanwo-Olu also said more staff buses had been procured for workers of the state civil service to make commuting to and from work easier for them.

7 main points president Tinubu talked about in his speech

0

In a nationwide broadcast on Monday, July 31, President Tinubu urged Nigerians to exercise patience with his administration, assuring them that better days are ahead.

Acknowledging the significant financial burden caused by the removal of subsidies, Tinubu emphasized that the country could no longer sustain such costs.

He outlined key areas of focus in his administration, including economic reforms, support for the manufacturing sector, micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises, and a forthcoming salary review for civil servants.

Removal of Fuel Subsidy

For several years, I have consistently maintained the position that the fuel subsidy had to go.

This once beneficial measure had outlived its utility.

The subsidy cost us trillions of Naira yearly.

Such a vast sum of money would have been better spent on public transportation, healthcare, schools, housing and even national security.

Instead, it was being funneled into the deep pockets and lavish bank accounts of a select group of individuals.

This group had amassed so much wealth and power that they became a serious threat to the fairness of our economy and the integrity of our democratic governance.

To be blunt, Nigeria could never become the society it was intended to be as long as such small, powerful yet unelected groups hold enormous influence over our political economy and the institutions that govern it.

The whims of the few should never hold dominant sway over the hopes and aspirations of the many.

If we are to be a democracy, the people and not the power of money must be sovereign.

The preceding administration saw this looming danger as well.

Indeed, it made no provision in the 2023 Appropriations for subsidy after June this year. Removal of this once helpful device that had transformed into a millstone around the country’s neck had become inevitable.

Multiple Exchange Rate System

Also, the multiple exchange rate system that had been established became nothing but a highway of currency speculation.

It diverted money that should have been used to create jobs, build factories and businesses for millions of people.

Our national wealth was doled on favorable terms to a handful of people who have been made filthy rich simply by moving money from one hand to another.

This too was extremely unfair. It also compounded the threat that the illicit and mass accumulation of money posed to the future of our democratic system and its economy.

Economic Reforms

I had promised to reform the economy for the long-term good by fighting the major imbalances that had plagued our economy.

Ending the subsidy and the preferential exchange rate swam was key to this fight.

This fight is to define the fate and future of our nation.

Much is in the balance.

Thus, the defects in our economy immensely profited a tiny elite, the elite of the elite you might call them.

As we moved to fight the flaws in the economy, the people who grow rich from them predictably will fight back through every means necessary.

Our economy is going through a tough patch and you are being hurt by it.

The cost of fuel has gone up. Food and other prices have followed it. Households and businesses struggle.

Things seem anxious and uncertain.

I understand the hardship you face.

I wish there were other ways.

But there is not.

If there were, I would have taken that route as I came here to help not hurt the people and nation that I love.

What I can offer is immediately stop reducing the burden our current economic situation has imposed on all of us, most especially on businesses, the working class and the most vulnerable among us.

Already, the Federal Government is working closely with states and local governments to implement interventions that will cushion the pains of our people across socio-economic brackets.

Support for Manufacturing Sector, and Micro, Small, and Medium-Sized Enterprises

Earlier this month, I signed 4 Executive Orders in keeping with my electoral promise to address unfriendly fiscal policies and multiple taxes that are stifling the business environment.

These Executive Orders on suspension and deferred commencement of some taxes will provide the necessary buffers and headroom for businesses in the manufacturing sector to continue to thrive and expand.

To strengthen the manufacturing sector, and increase its capacity to expand and create good-paying jobs, we are going to spend N75 billion between July 2023 and March 2024.

Our objective is to fund 75 enterprises with great potential to kick-start sustainable economic growth, accelerate structural transformation and improve productivity.

Each of the 75 manufacturing enterprises will be able to access N1 billion credit at 9% per annum with a maximum of 60 months of repayment for long-term loans and 12 months for working capital.

Our administration recognizes the importance of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises and the informal sector as drivers of growth.

We are going to energize this very important sector with N125 billion.

Out of the sum, we will spend N50 billion on a Conditional Grant to 1 million Nano businesses between July 2023 and March 2024.

Our target is to give N50,000 each to 1,300 Nano business owners in each of the 774 local governments across the country.

Ultimately, this program will further drive financial inclusion by onboarding beneficiaries into the formal banking system.

In like manner, we will fund 100,000 MSMEs and start-ups with N75 billion.

Under this scheme, each enterprise promoter will be able to get between N500,000 to N1 million at 9% interest per annum and a repayment period of 36 months.

Food Security Initiatives

To further ensure that prices of food items remain affordable, we have had a multi-stakeholder engagement with various farmers’ associations and operators within the agricultural value chain.

In the short and immediate terms, we will ensure staple foods are available and affordable. To this end, I have ordered the release of 200,000 Metric Tonnes of grains from strategic reserves to farmers across the 36 states and FCT to moderate prices.

We are also providing 225,000 metric tonnes of fertilizer, seedlings and other inputs to farmers who are committed to our food security agenda.

Our plan to support the cultivation of 500,000 hectares of farmland and all-year-round farming practice remains on course.

To be specific, N200 billion out of the N500 billion approved by the National Assembly will be disbursed as follows:

Our administration will invest N50 billion each to cultivate 150,000 hectares of rice and maize.
N50 billion each will also be earmarked to cultivate 100,000 hectares of wheat and cassava.

This expansive agricultural program will be implemented targeting small-holder farmers and leveraging large-scale private sector players in the Agric business with strong performance records.

Infrastructure Support Fund:

In this regard, the expertise of Development Finance Institutions, commercial banks and microfinance banks will be tapped into to develop a viable and appropriate transaction structure for all stakeholders.

Fellow Nigerians, I made a solemn pledge to work for you.

How to improve your welfare and living condition is of paramount importance to me and it’s the only thing that keeps me up day and night.

It is in light of this that I approved the Infrastructure Support Fund for the States.

This new Infrastructure Fund will enable States to intervene and invest in critical areas and bring relief to many of the pain points as well as revamp our decaying healthcare and educational Infrastructure.

The fund will also bring improvements to rural access roads to ease the evacuation of farm produce to markets.

With the fund, our states will become more competitive and on a stronger financial footing to deliver economic prosperity to Nigerians.

Part of our program is to roll out buses across the states and local governments for mass transit at a much more affordable rate.

We have made provision to invest N100 billion between July 2023 and March to acquire 3000 units of 20-seater CNG-fueled buses.

These buses will be shared with major transportation companies in the states using the intensity of travel per capita.

Participating transport companies will be able to access credit under this facility at 9% per annum with 60 months repayment period.

In the same vein, we are also working in collaboration with the Labor unions to introduce a new national minimum wage for workers.

Salary Review for Civil Servants:

I want to tell our workers this: your salary review is coming.

Once we agree on the new minimum wage and general upward review, we will make budget provisions for it for immediate implementation.

I want to use this opportunity to salute many private employers in the Organized Private Sector who have already implemented general salary reviews for employees.

NIGER REPUBLIC: We’ll crush you like maggots — Fani-Kayode warns Mali, Burki

0

Former Minister of Aviation and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Femi Fani-Kayode has warned the military governments of Niger Republic , Mali and Burkina Faso not to underestimate the fighting force of the Nigerian military.

Information Nigeria reports that his reaction stems on the heels of threats by the military governments of Mali and Burkina Faso that will join forces against “any attack on the Niger Republic by the Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS.

According to Fani-Kayode, Nigeria might have challenges and issues in the country but when at war against foreign armies on foreign soil it is never been overwhelmed or defeated.

Reacting via Twitter on Tuesday, he described the threat as “a pitiful and nonsensical threat from two pitiful and nonsensical unelected governments.”

“The military governments of Mali and Burkina Faso have said that “any attack on Niger Republic by ECOWAS will be regarded as an act of war.

“This is a pitiful and nonsensical threat from two pitiful and nonsensical unelected Governments headed by tin pot military dictators.

“The biggest mistake that the mutinous rebels and military usurpers of Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger and their allies can ever make is to underestimate the fighting force and indomitable spirit of the Nigerian military and the sense of solidarity that we as a people kindle, muster and cultivate when confronted in the field of battle by a foreign foe.

“We may have challenges and issues in our country but when at war against foreign armies on foreign soil we have NEVER been overwhelmed or defeated. History proves that.

“We are slow to anger but irresistible in battle and if the Burkinabe, Malian or the Nigerien Army test our will we shall bring them to their knees and teach them the lesson of their lives.

“Threatening great Nigeria with war is no small matter and, if carried out, will prove costly for them.

“Simply put we would crush them like maggots under our feet and send them back to the stone ages where they belong,” he tweeted.

Tribunal: Court adjourns judgment in Peter Obi’s petition against Tinubu

0

The Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal has reserved judgment on the petition filed by the candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, seeking nullification of the declaration of Bola Ahmed Tinubu as winner of the February 25 presidential election.

Obi who came third in the election and his party had filed a joint petition in March challenging the outcome of the February 25 poll.

They are asking the court to nullify the victory of Bola Tinubu, candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

In their final written address dated July 20, the petitioners insisted that Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima were not qualified to contest the poll.

The petitioners had said Tinubu was not eligible to run for the office of president due to the forfeiture of $460,000 in the US and his failure to secure 25 percent of votes cast in the federal capital territory (FCT).

NAIJAHITZ reports that the petitioners closed their case on June 23 after calling 13 witnesses.

At the court session on Tuesday, the petitioners as well as the respondents adopted their final written addresses

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) legal team led by Abubakar Mahmoud prayed the court to dismiss the petition.

“We humbly submit that this petition is lacking in merit and should be dismissed,” Mahmoud said.

Meanwhile, Wole Olanipekun, counsel to Tinubu and Shettima, as well as Lateef Fagbemi, representative of the APC, also prayed the court to dismiss the petitioners’ case.

The five-member panel of justices led my Harunna Tsammani reserved judgment adding that a date would be communicated to parties.
