The Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP) on Wednesday began an
indefinite strike over non-implementation of the 2009 and 2017 agreement
reached with the union by the federal government. The polytechnic
lecturers now join their university colleagues who have been on strike
since November 4. The National President of ASUP, Usman Dutse, said the
federal government had invited the union for dialogue on December 17 but
the strike would continue till then. Prior to the strike, the union
had on October 2 issued a 21-day ultimatum to the government before it
extended it to November. But even then, it did not commence the
strike. Dutse said the strike had commenced, adding that there is total
compliance by all chapters. “We have zonal coordinators and a
monitoring team, zone by zone, all over the country. Already from the
report we are getting, we are satisfied with the level of compliance
from all our zones but we are reviewing the day’s activity in a meeting
now,” he said.Dutse said the government has failed to implement and
fulfill agreements it reached with the union as contained in the
memorandum of understanding signed. The union went on strike over
non-implementation of the NEEDS Assessment report of 2014, non-payment
of salaries in state-owned institutions, non-payment of allowances, and
the victimisation of union members, among others. ASUP went on strike
in November 2017, but when the federal government reached an agreement
to implement the recommendations of the 2014 NEEDS assessment, the
strike was suspended 15 days after.

Some Nigerians are oblivious of how important empowering a small or micro
business is, untilthey realise their primary needs cannot be satisfied.
We all have an insatiable thirst forwater under the scorching sun,
getting your shoes fixed by a cobbler on your way to work,or quickly
mending a piece of clothing from "mai tailor" otherwise known as
movingtailor.Imagine having to go to an automobile company to get your
car tire pumped or fixeddespite the stupendous cost and bothersome
procedures when you know how convenient itis to get it done by the road
side vulcanizer, or imagine going to a restaurant or supermarketfor
biscuit, snacks or water before getting your stomach filled "I mean who
sells roastedyam and bole (roasted plantain) in a restaurant anyway"?
All these are fundamental and essential demands that needs to be
gratified.However, not every individual can afford these exorbitant
living, hence the need for pettytraders and artisans. These petty
traders and artisans practically commit to running an operational
economy by meeting our daily micro demands. Thankfully, the government
recognises the economic hardship especially amongst low-income earners
and created a social intervention program called TraderMoni.
TraderMoni
is an empowerment initiative set up by the federal government to
provideinterest-free and collateral-free loans for petty traders and
artisans. The primary objective of the intervention is to improve and
help these petty traders in business and increase overall
productivity. People may question what N10,000 can do in a business
forgetting that the benefactorsof the said empowerment are "petty
traders". People forget that these ''benefactors'' can qualify for
higher loans after prompt repayment. A food vendor, fruit seller, or
vegetable vendor has a family and will be better empowered if their
business is active rather than crippled by debts and unpaid
interest. The TraderMoni initiative makes these loans easily accessible
to petty traders and there isno political undertone to the project as
wrongly assumed by a few people.Thanks to TraderMoni. Thanks to the
Federal Government. Cheers to better-empoweredbusiness owners.
Says non-oil sector drives GDP growth in Q3 The Federal Government has
accused the National Assembly for delaying the submission of the 2019
budget proposal to both chambers. Minister of Budget and National
Planning, Senator Udoma Udo Udoma, said though the presidency has
written the National Assembly to indicate a date when it will be
convenient for President Muhammadu Buhari to present the budget
estimates, the lawmakers were yet to respond. The minister expressed the
concern over the delay on Wednesday while briefing State House
correspondents after the weekly Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting
presided over by President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa,
Abuja. Udoma, however, did not disclose the figures budgeted for 2019.
Buhari had convened a special FEC session last Friday where the budget
estimates was approved. “As you already know, the budget is ready. We
are liaising with the National Assembly because they are to give us a
date. If they say today, we will go. The budget is ready,” he said. The
Daily Times recalls that FEC had on October 24 this year approved the
Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) and Fiscal Strategy Paper (FSP)
for the 2019 -2021 to provide template for the 2019 budget. In the
MTF/FSP, N8.73 trillion was estimated for the 2019 budget which is
N400bn lower than that of 2018. The price of crude oil per barrel was
pegged at $60, exchange rate at $305 and daily crude oil production was
put at 2.3m by the FEC. The MTEF/ FSP was designed to translate
strategic development objective of the economic recovery and growth plan
into a realistic and implementable budget framework. Meanwhile, Udoma
also reported a slight increase in Nigeria’s Gross Domestic Product
(GDP) which was shored up from 1.5 percent in Q2 of 2018 to 1.81 percent
in Q3 of the same year. He said the non-oil sector which had suffered
neglect in previous administrations facilitated the growth. According to
him, transportation, electricity, telecommunication, metal-oils, quarry
among others grew the GDP by 3.32 percent in Q3 and represented the
strongest growth trajectory in twelve consecutive quarters since the Q4
of 2015. He said: “Today, I reported to FEC that we have seen steady
recovery from the recession period. The report indicates that the
economy when measured by real GDP grew at 1.81 percent in the Q3, 2018,
compared to 1.5 percent in the Q2, 2018. “FEC was particularly
encouraged to note that economic growth continues to be driven by the
non-oil sector which grew by 3.32 percent in the 3rd quarter, this has
been the strongest growth in non-oil GDP in twelve consecutive quarters
since the 4th quarter of 2015. “By economic activity, non-oil growth was
driven by transportation, electricity, telecommunication, metal oils,
quarry and so on. In addition, agriculture and manufacturing sectors
also grew, agriculture by 1.91 percent manufacturing by 1.92 percent.
These are stronger growth than in the 2nd quarter. So overall, Council
was most encouraged by these results which shows improvement in the
economy and that our plans are working”
“It has also been observed that most of the road accidents are caused by impatience on the part of the drivers,’’ he said.Ibitomi said that palliative measures initiated by the state government to ensure a free flow of traffic at Owode-Ijako were abused by the drivers plying the area. He, however, said that the FRSC and other traffic agencies like Traffic Compliance and Enforcement Corps would intensify monitoring in the area to check the excesses of motorists.

A boy
who was kidnapped from his parent's home in Rivers state two years ago
has just been found in Ebonyi state.Destiny Azubuike was abducted from
his home in Oyigbo, Rivers state, on the 19th of December 2016. He was
found on the 11th of December, 2018 in Ohaozara Local
Government, Ebonyi State, where he had been renamed Samuel by the woman
who bought him. According to Wired Nigeria, the boy, now 5, was abducted
by one Mrs Evelyn, an ex-mistress of the boy’s neighbour identified as
Dr Oberenwa. Mrs Evelyn sold the boy for N500,000 to Mrs Patricia
Chukwu, a widow and staff of Ebonyi State Secondary School Management
Board. 
The
police began trailing Mrs Evelyn after a tip-off. Mrs Evelyn was
trailed to her ex-husband, who explained that they had divorced due to
his suspicions that she had sold their biological child to a foster
parent. However, he offered to assist in helping the police to find her.
But he was soon killed while returning from work by unknown assailants
who police suspect may be connected to his wife. Mrs Evelyn later
allegedly led a kidnapping gang in Isiala Ngwa South in Abia
state. Further investigations led to her arrest at Umuikaa Junction in
Isiala Ngwa South. She was then taken to Oyigbo Police Station where the
matter was initially reported in 2016. 
The
suspect was interrogated by the police and she confessed and also
implicated some other accomplices who have now been arrested.
COSON's
banks accounts now frozen, until Okoroji explains how he collected
& used entertainers royalties. The Performing Musician Employers
Association of Nigeria (PMAN) will like to inform all its members, and
all musical content owners in Nigeria , that in furtherance to the
suspension of COSON’s operating license by the Nigeria Copyright
Commission (NCC), all COSON bank accounts have now been frozen. Working
with key corporate members like Premier Music Publishing Company
Limited and Ivory Music Limited, we have secured a court order to freeze
the accounts in a bid to stop the illegal and unsupervised spending of
monies belonging to rights owners by Chief Tony Okoroji and his
illegally constituted board. This move has become necessary in
consideration of the fact that Chief Okoroji has vehemently refused
comply with the directives of the industry regulator, NCC and also
accede to the demand for full forensic audit of the account and
operations of COSON under operations of COSON under his tenure. He has
continued to spend the organisation's funds without prerequisite
oversight thereby hurting the earnings due to the right
owners. Furthermore, all owners of musical content in Nigeria are
advised to disregard any information being propagated by Chief Tony
Okoroji and his cronies on social media that he enjoys the support of
the right owners. Virtually all relevant stakeholders in the music
industry including top artistes, publishers and record labels with
active music catalogs are aligned in support of the NCC's suspension of
COSON’s operating license and with PMAN, Premier Music and Ivory Music
in the freezing all its bank accounts. The PMAN President, Pretty
Okafor who is also a COSON member appeals to all musicians to stay calm
and be reassured that the Union is doing all it can to end the current
fracas in the collective management space. The PMAN President emphasized
that the only way to guarantee effective copyright administration
practice in Nigeria is putting in place proper operational policied and
legislative structures to ensure accountability and sustainable
growth. Pretty Okafor PMAN president
