PHOTO from AU Summit – Why Africa is not moving forward
Below
is a slice of a recent statement from the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC)
National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Rotimi Fashakin, on the performance of the
Nigerian delegation to the just concluded African Union Summit held in Addis
Ababa, Ethiopia.
“President
Jonathan spurned the slot allocated to him to articulate his contribution to
the regional discourse. He did not attend and no representative was sent to
deliver Nigeria’s message. In ordinary administrative appraisal of the action,
it was not just irresponsible but gross dereliction of executive duties,” the
party stated.
From
the photo above, am sure CPC would understand why the President did not attend
the summit.

Don’t pay ransom to pirates, kidnappers – Naval chief
The
Chief of Naval Staff, Vice-Admiral Dele Ezeoba, has urged members of the
Nigerian Trawlers Owners Association not to pay ransom to pirates and kidnappers,
who attack their trawlers. Paying of ransom to the kidnappers, Ezeoba said,
would perpetuate the vice in the country.
According
to him, the country has a responsibility to adopt the measures to discourage
the crime. The Navy Chief spoke while receiving the National Executive of the
Nigerian Trawlers Owners Association led by its President, Mr. Joseph Overo, in
Abuja on Tuesday.
He
said, “The challenges you have highlighted are common knowledge to all of us.
It happens unfortunately within our maritime space, not because we want it, but
because in our society, we have people who take pride in committing this crime.
“When
you pay this ransom, you have opened a floodgate for the vice to continue. It
then becomes business and a means of livelihood for the abductors.
EFCC Opposes Sylva's Application to Travel Abroad
The
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) Tuesday told a Federal High
Court in Abuja that the former Governor of Bayelsa State, Timipre Sylva, might
escape trial if allowed to travel out of the country.
Sylva,
who is standing trial before the court for alleged money laundering related
offences, is asking the court for permission to accompany his wife on a foreign
trip.
When
the matter came up yesterday, counsel to Sylva, Mr. O.I Olorundare (SAN) told
the court that the ex-governor's wife was scheduled for surgery in a United
Kingdom hospital on May 31 and needed his company.
He,
therefore, urged the court to release his international passport to enable him
embark on the trip. Sylva, however, promised to return for trial and to also
return the passport to the custody of the court.
The
former governor said the grounds for his application was that it was part of
the conditions attached to the bail granted him June last year, to always seek
the court's leave before engaging in foreign trip.
Lawmakers seek compulsory HIV test for intending couples
The
Bauchi State House of Assembly is working on a bill that will make it mandatory
for intending couples to undergo HIV screening.
The
News Agency of Nigeria reported on Monday that the bill, sponsored by Ilyasu Zwall, representing Lere/Bula
Constituency, had already gone through first and Second reading.
He
said that the bill, when passed, would require intending couples to be tested
for HIV in any government recognised hospital “at a time not earlier than one
week to the day of the wedding.” It also made it mandatory for individuals to
conduct tests when marrying additional wives.
According
to the lawmaker, the enactment of the law is long over-due considering the
number of lives being lost as a result of marriages contracted without checking
the HIV status of couples.
VIDEO: Fan slaps Beyonce on bum during Copenhagen concert
Beyonce's
Monday show in Denmark took a turn for the dramatic when one attendee acted way
out of turn.
The
31-year-old singer was performing her hit single "Irreplaceable" at
The Forum in Copenhagen, touching the hands of fans as she sang. As Beyonce
turned during the performance, one fan within arm's length took the opportunity
to slap Beyonce's blue bedazzled bodysuit-clad butt.
Unsurprisingly,
Beyonce joked, "I will have you escorted out right now, alright?"
Opportunity
comes but once; what do you think?
National Universities Commission scraps ‘Pass’ grading in varsities
THE National Universities Commission (NUC) has scrapped the ‘Pass’ grading in the nation’s universities.
The
implications are that, 44 per cent rather than the initial 39 per cent will now
be the mark for assessing failure just as ‘Third Class’ will now be the least
grade for graduation in all the universities.
According
to the Vice Chancellor, Kwara State University (KWASU), Malete, Prof.
Abdulrsheed Na’Allah Tuesday at the pre-convocation press briefing of the
university, the directive would be easier to implement at KWASU as the
university had started the grading system since establishment three and a half
years ago.
He
said: “The KWASU had technically eliminated the pass grading by making 45 per
cent the least scores for success. Even the NUC had recently given the same
order to all the nation’s universities.”
No
fewer than 231 students of the institution are to graduate on Saturday, June 1
this year during its maiden convocation ceremony.

Boko Haram Claims Victories Over Military, Seeks Help From Afghanistan
The
leader of Islamist extremist group, Boko Haram said his group has scored
several victories against the military during an ongoing offensive while
themselves sustaining little damage, in a video seen by AFP on Tuesday.
“Since
we started this ongoing war which they call state of emergency ... in some
instances soldiers who faced us turned and ran,” Abubakar Shekau said in the
hour-long video.
He
claimed Nigerian forces “threw down their arms in flight.”
He
called on like-minded Islamists in countries including Afghanistan, Pakistan
and Iraq to join the fight to create an Islamic state in Nigeria.
“We
call to us our brethren in these countries I mentioned. Oh! Our brethren, come
to us,” he said in the video, which alternates between Arabic and the Hausa
language spoken across northern Nigeria.
Nigeria
launched an offensive against Boko Haram on May 15, after President Goodluck
Jonathan declared a state of emergency in the country’s northeast, the Islamist
insurgents’ stronghold.
The
video was delivered to AFP through an intermediary in a manner similar to
previous Boko Haram messages. The images of Shekau in the video are consistent
with those previously released.

Baby Rescued From Sewage Pipe in China
The
dramatic rescue began after cries were heard from a fourth-floor apartment
toilet.
Alarmed
neighbors heard the sounds and saw a tiny foot inside a ceramic bowl. There was
a baby inside.
They
called the fire department in the Chinese city of Jinhua, state broadcaster
CCTV reported.
Unable
to pull the infant out out, rescuers went to the floor below and sawed away an
entire section of sewer pipe.
But
still, the baby was stuck, so both the section of pipe and the infant were
taken to a local hospital.
Working
together, rescuers and doctors began removing the pipe, piece by piece, as
shown in video from CCTV.
It
shows the exact moment hands in white gloves gingerly pulled away a part of the
pipe, revealing the tiny face of a newborn.
The
afterbirth was still attached.
CCTV
reported the infant, a baby boy, was rescued Saturday. He is in stable
condition.
No
one has come forward yet to claim the child, and police say they are looking
for his parents.
Jinhua
police issued an appeal on the social media website Weibo.
"Mom,
come back! The baby is resilient and alive. Please show up, Mom. This is your
own baby and he should return to your warm embrace soon."
Wife sues husband for allegedly spending more nights with second wife
There
was a mild drama at Lugbe Area Court, Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory on
Monday where a 35-year old woman, Maryam Mohammed, dragged her husband, Adamu
Mohammed, before the court for allegedly spending more nights with his second
wife.
Maryam
accused his husband, who resides with her in Sabon-Lugbe along Airport Road,
Abuja, of neglect, selfishness and starving her of sex and food.
She
added that she could have died of hunger and loneliness if not for her parents
who had been feeding her. She however pleaded the court to dissolve their
marriage forthwith, to enable her marry another man who can take good care of
her and make her feel like a woman. In her words, “My Lord, whenever it is my
turn for the night, my husband would sneak into my second’s bedroom and spend
the night there.
“He
has neglected me; he has become very selfish and no longer gives me food or
money for my feeding. Rather, it is my parents who have been sending me food. I
am seeking immediate divorce to enable me marry a man who can take care of me.”
While
denying his wife allegations, the defendant, Mohammed said he had been sick for
a while, hence could not satisfy his wife’s sexual urge and needs.
He
said, “My Lord, I cannot satisfy her needs because of my prolonged illness, but
now that I am getting better and I still love her, I urge her to stay and the
court should not grant her any divorce.”
However
the Presiding Judge, Mr Haruna Masanawa, adjourned the case to June 3 for
further hearing and directed both parties to come with their parents or
witnesses.
Nigeria Immigration Service Deports 108 Illegal Aliens in Kaduna
The
Comptroller of the Kaduna State Command of the Nigeria Immigration Service
(NIS), Alhaji Hamman Yerima, Monday paraded 103 illegal aliens, who entered the
country illegally from Niger Republic.
Yerima
explained that many of the illegal aliens were picked up at some of the
Government Reserved Areas (GRA) within Kaduna metropolis, where they were
employed as security guards.
He
said they would be deported immediately to their home country and urged
Nigerians to engage only legally permitted aliens for security jobs.
Yerima
blamed the influx of illegal aliens into the country on the nation’s porous
borders, urging that the borders should be fully equipped to checkmate the
movement of illegal immigrants.
According
to him, “the command of the NIS conducted mop up operations against illegal
immigrants in the state. This time around, we conducted an operation in Kachia
local government area on May 26, and we arrested 25 illegal immigrants.
“The
next day, we also conducted an operation in the high brow areas of Kaduna North
that is, Ungwan Rimi GRA, Malali GRA, Ungwan Dosa and Marafa where we arrested
59 suspects. Then at the toll gate, along Zaria road, we also arrested 17
suspects, and earlier on we arrested two suspects, so all in all we have 103
suspects.
My life in danger, Gov. Amaechi cries out
THE
political whirlwind blowing the Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi, became
more ferocious on Monday with the National Working Committee of the Peoples
Democratic Party suspending him from the party.
The
PDP said Amaechi would remain suspended until an 11-man panel set up to probe
his “sins” submited its report. Chief Joe Gadzama (SAN), an Adamawa State
indigene like the National Chairman of the party, Bamangar Tukur, chairs the
investigative panel.
Coming
in the wake of the controversial outcome of Friday’s election of Nigerian
Governors’ Forum, Amaechi said he was being victimised by federal powers and
that he feared for the safety of his life.
He
asked the people of his state to pray for him not to fall into the hands of “desperate
people at the federal level.”
