LEADERSHIP: Why Road Projects Take Time – Minister
The year, 2020, witnessed unprecedented
crises occasioned by the COVID-19 pandemic. How did the ministry of works and
housing navigate through these difficult times?
No doubt, the COVID-19 pandemic has
immensely affected the plans and programmes of the Federal Ministry of Works
and Housing. There was reduction of government activities as a result of the
total lockdown, and this has affected execution of projects. But the ministry
is still on course, we have adjusted. We are now working tirelessly to complete
and deliver most of our projects.
What would you say are the specific projects the government has delivered even in the face of COVID-19 pandemic?
PUNCH: Denmark, Norway, Iceland suspend AstraZeneca vaccination after blood clot reports
*No higher risk of blood clots in those vaccinated –Regulatory body*
Denmark, Norway and Iceland on Thursday temporarily suspended the use of AstraZeneca’s Covid-19 vaccine over concerns about patients developing post-jab blood clots, as the manufacturer and Europe’s medicines watchdog insisted the vaccine was safe.
Denmark was first to announce its suspension, “following reports of serious cases of blood clots” among people who had received the vaccine, the country’s Health Authority said in a statement.
CHANNELS TELEVISION: South African Students Protest Killing Of 35 – Year – Old Govt Worker
Hundreds of people demonstrated peacefully on Thursday in front of a police station in downtown Johannesburg following the death of an unarmed passerby during a South African student protest against fees a day earlier.
Human rights lawyer and a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Femi Falana, has called for the return of the £4.2million looted by ex-Delta State Governor, James Ibori back to the Niger Delta state.
Falana said this Wednesday during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics.
He said the loot recovered from convicted ex-Governor of Delta State, James Ibori, belongs to the state and not the Federal Government.
“The Federal Government ought to be commended for pursuing this matter having regards to the fact that this case is a collabo issue between the EFCC under Malami/Ribadu and the Metropolitan Police in the United Kingdom.
“The memorandum of understanding signed by the representatives of the British Government and the Federal Government cannot supersede the constitution which has prohibited any form of discrimination in the country.
“In other words, by virtue of Section 42 of the constitution the governments and people of Plateau, Bayelsa and Delta States are entitled to equal rights and opportunities.
The Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has accused the All Progressives Congress-led Federal Government of shielding the Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, from prosecution over misappropriation of proceeds from the sales of some state assets, PUNCH reports and continues below.
The governor said it was deceitful for the Federal Government to inaugurate narrow gauge railway from Port Harcourt to Maiduguri at a time the rest of the world was building standard gauge railway.
Wike stated this during the inauguration of 6.1-kilometre Omuihuechi-Omuoko-Omokiri Link Road in the Aluu Ikwerre Local Government Area on Wednesday.
Wike in a statement by his Special Assistant on Media, Kelvin Ebiri, said it was appalling that the apex administration had continued to shield Amaechi from prosecution for his inability to account for $308m from the sales of the state-owned power plant and other critical assets when he was the governor.
“People gave you opportunity. You sold our properties, everything. And people are talking in this state because of the government that says they are fighting corruption and protecting people. You (Amaechi) sold our property for $308m and kept for us $208,000.
The regime of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), is not interested in negotiation with bandits, terrorists and other criminal elements terrorising the country.
National Security Adviser, Maj-Gen. Babagana Monguno (retd.) made the statement Thursday at a State House briefing in Aso Villa, Abuja.
According to Monguno, the present administration is not interested in negotiation with bandits, terrorists, and other criminal elements terrorizing the country. He’s of the opinion that dialogue with insurgents paints the government as weak and incapable and the Federal Government will apply its full weight to deal with the criminals and will not be blackmailed by any group of people into negotiating with those who threaten the nation’s peace.
“While the government is not averse to talking to these entities, these human beings, I have to be very honest, the government has to apply its weight, that force that is required because you can’t even talk with people who are unreliable people, who will turn out to do a different thing and people who will continue to hurt society.
“So, basically, what the government wants to rely upon is to deal with this issue by using all the assets – military assets, intelligence assets to eliminate these people.
“If along the line, some of them are ready to come out and talk and negotiate, when the time comes, we will do that but for now, we can’t keep on dwelling on ‘Let’s dialogue’.
“Psychologically, it is not even good for us, it paints the picture of weakness, it paints the picture of incapacity and I, just like the governor of Kaduna State said, do not see any reason why we cannot, with what we have, deal with these elements.
Father George Ehusani challenges Christians all over the world to establish their presence firmly in the social media which is the new marketplace or battleground of ideas, if they want the authentic Christian faith bequeathed to their children. Social media platforms he says, have become the most powerful instruments of socialisation and value orientation. It is being used cleverly and efficiently by agents of the 21st Century new pagan culture, who are out to destroy all traditional Christian and family values.

In response to the rising tension across the country on account of the widespread acts of banditry and criminal abductions, and the unprecedented political tension, mutual distrust and threat of a total breakdown in law and order, which the insecurity situation has sadly generated, the Network and Advocacy Group of Lux Terra Leadership Foundation on Friday February 26, 2021, hosted an interactive session with some senior media practitioners, on the critical role the media can play in changing the present narrative and preventing a violent implosion.
Many of the Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) and Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) opposing President Muhammadu Buhari, were doing so now because the president refused to agreed to their outrageous demands at the expense of the country.
The Executive Secretary, Citizens Watch Advocacy Initiative (CWAI) and President, Coalition of Civil Societies and Media Executives for Good Governance in Nigeria (COCMEGG), Omoba Kenneth Aigbegbele, and the Secretary General, James Okoronkwo, said this on Monday in Abuja, at a press conference on the State of the Nation.
Aigbegbele at the event which also witnessed the passing of a vote of confidence on President Muhammadu Buhari Administration, urged Nigerians to ignore a statement by a self-acclaimed coalition of 70 CSOs across Nigeria to pass a vote of no confidence on President Buhari's administration.
According to him, the so called 70 CSOs cannot speak Nigerians, especially that COCMEGG is an umbrella body of over 350 CSOs, NGOs, human rights activists and media executives, among others.
“These co-travellers of CSOs, NGOs and groups masquerading themselves as conscience of the Nation, have been wining and dining with the same present administration since they took over the mantle of leadership in 2015.
“Our findings revealed that, instead of offering positive and constructive advice, the group prefers rather to go cap-in-hand, soliciting and arm-twisting the present administration to harken to their outrageous demands, failure to which, they now cajole and blackmail the present administration, in order to achieve their selfish agenda.
