Huge debts await Buhari, in-coming govs

BY CLIFFORD NDUJIHE
AFTER the euphoria of their electoral victories, one of the major challenges that will confront the President-elect, Major-General Muhammadu Buhari (retd), and 20 or 21 new governors is the level of debt stock the out-going administrations will leave behind.
According to the Debt Management Office, DMO, the Federal Government has a stock of $6.445 billion in external debt (N1.29 trillion at the rate of one dollar to N200)) and another N7. 9 trillion domestic debt totalling N9.19 trillion, as of December 31, 2014. This is the equivalent of two years budget.
The huge debt stock, if not properly managed, can hamper the delivery of democracy dividends.

However, a source told MLB that it was a group of people who invaded a shrine that are being attacked
"The said death by an unknown disease in Ode Irele in Ondo state, is not a disease as believed, it's actually a spiritual attack in the village meted on some indigenes in that locality who invaded the village shrine.."

    Why black South Africans are attacking foreign Africans but not foreign whites


    Sibusiso Tshabalala
    April 15, 2015
    The attacks on migrant shop owners in Durban this week reminds us the position of foreigner in South Africa is a complex one. After decades of isolation from the rest of the African continent, and the world, during apartheid, South Africa finally opened up to the rest of world in 1994.
    Under apartheid, South Africa’s immigration mirrored the narrow mindedness and prejudice of the National Party. Several laws made visiting or living in South Africa unpalatable to many. Particularly those of non-European descent.

    Excerpt from what he said! “I want to assure you that by the time he takes over, petrol will be dispensed at N40 per litre. This is possible and he has the credibility to make it work. The major assignment of the president-elect when he's eventually inaugurated is to restore confidence to the industry. As military head of state, he dealt with the Federal Executive Council with the tenets of democracy. Buhari will build new refineries to make petroleum products available for the masses. No responsible government will allow the masses to suffer. He will strengthen the refineries within a year. It is possible as we won’t spend any amount in setting up a green field refinery. We already have a blueprint as we shall use what we have to get what we want." He said

    We Can't Cancel Rivers And Akwa Ibom Results - INEC

    The Independent National Electoral Commission has said it has no power to cancel the results of the governorship and state Houses of Assembly elections in Rivers and Akwa Ibom states.

    It made this known to The PUNCH a few hours after the European Union Election Observation Mission to Nigeria on Monday called for a probe of the “severe problems” that characterised the polls in the two states.

    The Chief Press Secretary to the INEC chairman, Kayode Idowu, said those calling on the commission to cancel the results were misdirecting their request.

    He explained that once results had been announced by INEC , only election petition tribunals had the power to cancel and order fresh elections.

    Idowu said, “The law does not allow us to cancel any result after it has been announced. Everyone knows this.

    “It is only the election petition tribunals that can order that or even cancelled the elections. We would advice anyone who is aggrieved to go to the court. “


    Also in Abuja on Monday, EU EOM said the elections in Akwa Ibom and Rivers states needed to be probed because of accusations of rigging, intimidation and violence by opponents of the winners.

    Udom Emmanuel won the governorship in election in Akwa Ibom while a former Minister of State for Education, Nyesom Wike, triumphed in Rivers.

    The Chief Observer of the EU EOM, Santiago Fisas, said at a news conference that even though the elections witnessed “more efficient polling, “there were “increased incidents of violence and interference.”

    He added, “On April 12, INEC referred to 66 reports of violent incidents targeting polling units, INEC officials, voters and election materials in 19 states in all geopolitical zones except for the North-East.

    Five men that influenced Ambode’s victory (By Kola Popson)
    A day to April 11, 2015, it would have been quite difficult for anyone to say confidently who would emerge the Governor-elect of Lagos State between the two major contestants, Akinwunmi Ambode of All Progressive Congress (APC) and Jimi Agbaje of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Though the supporters of both candidates would probably tell you that they were sure that their candidates would emerge the winner, the truth is that inside them, they were very doubtful of what the outcome of the results would be. However, now that Akinwunmi Ambode has been declared the winner of the 2015 Lagos State Gubernatorial election, it is pertinent to note those personalities whose traits, contributions and influences had helped swing the pendulum in favour of Ambode. There are many of them, but for the purpose of this piece, five key players would be considered.

    The two teams needed the game badly- Burnley, to get away from the relegation zone but the Gunners gunning for the title as well as guarantee a comfortable place ahead of next season's champions league qualification.

    Meanwhile, Yannick Bolasie's hattrick turned the stadium of light into darkness as Alan Pardew's Crystal Palace demolished 16th place Sunderland 4-1.

    Glenn Murray gave the visitors the lead in the 48th minute of the game after which Bolasie put three goals in the net in 11 minutes to keep Palace 11th on the league table.

    Tim Sherwood's return to White Hart Lane was unpleasant for the home team as Aston Villa stole all three points in their game on Saturday with Christian Benteke's 35th minute goal.

    Tottenham had fired Sherwood following his poor performance at the club but it seems the Villa manager had paid them back with the victory that has kept them two places clear of relegation.
