IF the militants who sabotaged crude and gas pipelines in Delta State thought that by their action, they would succeed in brow-beating the Federal Government into bargaining amnesty with them and awarding them contracts for protection of pipelines in the region, then they seriously misfired.

According to a militant leader, “General” Levi (not real name), whose group claimed responsibility for the attacks that led to the shutdown of the Port Harcourt and Kaduna refineries, they would not drop their arms until the Minister of State for Petroleum, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, “meets and negotiates” with them.

List of Nigerian Politicians Who Have Properties in Dubai

During the elections, President Muhammadu Buhari is top on his three-point agenda is corruption, before the issues of economy and security. And he's working hard to achieve them accordingly.

The UAE government has releases list of Nigerian politicians with properties in Dubai, Abu Dhabi.

President Muhammadu Buhari’s agreement with the United Arab Emirates to help recover stolen money have yielded quick results as the UAE government has released names of Nigerian politicians who have big properties in the oil rich country.

A founding member of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and the party’s former Board of Trustees member, Senator Joseph Waku says it is very unfair for the former National Security Adviser, NSA, Sambo Dasuki, to be detained while ex-President, Goodluck Jonathan, who has been “a central and key figure” in the alleged diversion of money meant for arms procurement is left a free man.

You signed up for the National Youth Service having freshly graduated with a sterling First Degree in Law and a Post Grad immediately afterwards. You were headhunted by an Energy Firm before you completed your NYSC and a presto you gallantly announced to your Nervous Parents - Dad a Diplomat with the United Nations based in Italy and Mum a Pharmacist based in the United Kingdom, your country of Birth - that you were going to permanently relocate and make Nigeria your permanent abode. Your Grandparents were ecstatic, you being their most favourite Grand Daughter.

Because some politicians have started denying, President Muhammadu Buhari has ordered Nigerian Embassy in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to investigate, document, and submit the full list of all Nigerian public officials with assets in the UAE.

Inside sources say Mr. President had also set a deadline for the completion and releasing of the list.

The Kogi State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, on Friday warned the state Governor, Capt. Idris Wada, against auctioning government property and award of phony contracts before leaving office on January 27.

In a statement made available to The Nation, the Chairman of the party in the state, Alhaji Haddy Ametuo, said the state governor was trying to auction government property at ridiculous prices.

The Lagos State Police Commissioner, Fatai Owoseni, on Friday said that the “One Million Boys” group terrorising some parts of the state had been subdued. Owoseni made the assertion when he addressed newsmen on the command’s activities in Ikeja.

He said different police teams, including the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, had been deployed to Morogbo area near Badagry. He said: “I use this medium to tell Lagosians, particularly Morogbo area of Badagry, that the police have dealt with the one million boys.

Another round of suicide bombing attacks were averted in Maiduguri, Borno State on Friday as three suicide bombers were intercepted by the military just a kilometre into the troubled town.

“The three suicide bombers, two females and a male, attempted to infiltrate Maiduguri but were intercepted by vigilant men a kilometre ahead of the town, along Mafa road.”

It was like madness had come over 50-year-old Dayo Kamorudeen, a taxi driver in the Lekki area of Lagos, when he heard the most shocking secret his wife of more than 20 years had been keeping from him.

According to Kamorudeen, it appeared that a spell had been placed upon his wife when she told him

on Sunday, January 17 that she was visiting Akute, a border town between Ogun and Lagos states.

Kamorudeen said he lived with his wife and three children in Akute for many years until two years ago when he relocated to his new house in Oke-Ogun area of Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos.

Clement Abanara, one of the suspected armed robbers that robbed several banks in Lagos and Ogun states, has confessed that he went into robbery to make money to maintain his ‘chieftaincy title.’

Abanara who was arrested last week is believed to be the mastermind of Ikorodu, Lekki, Festac and Agbara banks robbery.

It was recalls that Abanara, fondly called Millions and alleged leader of the robbery syndicate who disguises as a woman during operations, was arrested by operatives of the Inspector General of Police Special Intelligence Response Team, IRT, last weekend, at his hideout in Osayande estate, in Benin, Edo state.

The Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, in a bid to generate revenue for banks has introduced a maintenance fee of N1 on every current account transaction. This was contained in a circular signed by the Director of Financial Policy and Regulation of CBN, Kevin Amugo and addressed to commercial banks.

This comes few weeks after the central bank kicked off its Zero COT, commission on turnover, policy for all commercial banks within the country.

The National leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has distant itself from the plight of its National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh, saying the party will not provide sureties he needs to meet his bail conditions.

The party said its stance was due to the fact that the embattled spokesman was being prosecuted for offences that have nothing to do with it.
