A 25-year-old
native doctor, Abudulahi Mudi, arrested by operatives of the Inspector
General of Police (IGP) Intelligence Response Team (IRT) from his
hideout in Lokoja, Kogi State, has confessed that he makes more money
from snatching cars than what he makes from treating broken bones. Mudi
who was paraded alongside his accomplice, Christopher Ilia, a security
guard attached to one of the headquarters of a ministry in Abuja, said
he learnt the art of treating broken bones and treating pregnant women
from his late father, but switched to snatching exotic cars so he can
make fast money. He said himself and his team of four have stolen cars
mostly in the Ikeja, Lekki and Surulere axis of Lagos state. “I am a
native doctor and I treat people of stroke, broken bones and other
illnesses. My father who is now late thought me the art and I have been
doing it for a long time in Lokoja, Kogi State. In 2012, one of my
friends based in Lagos invited me, and when we met, he introduced me to
car snatching. He said the business would fetch me more money than
treating people. I accepted then because I was a native doctor and I
knew I could prepare charms that would prevent us from being
arrested.“My friend then taught me how to drive after which we started
removing people’s cars from parks. My friend had a master key we were
using, and at night we will go to any crowded bar and night clubs where
cars are parked by the road side. My friend would open two cars of his
choice and we will both drive them out and take them to our buyer who is
based in Lokoja.“We stole cars mainly around Surelere and Ikeja because
traffic around those areas was too busy compared to other areas. We
stole about 16 cars in Lagos before I was arrested when police trailed
one of the cars to the receiver in Lokoja. The police then used the
receiver to trick me and I was arrested. The receiver called and told me
that he was in Lagos and he wanted to come and collect someone and I
rushed to where he told me and I was arrested.“After I was arrested, the
police asked me to call my friend, and when I did, he sensed danger and
escaped. I was later charged to court and remanded in prison, but while
in prison, I got news that my friend had been killed while he attempted
to steal someone’s car in Lagos. I spent four years in prison because I
couldn’t fulfill my bail conditions. I came out in 2016 and relocated
to Abuja and started treating people again.“Early this year, Ilia came
to me for treatment. He told me he had gonorrhea and I started treating
him. In the process, we became friends and he told me that he lost his
job as a security guard and that he wanted me to assist him. At that
time, I had one of my car receivers calling me that he needed cheap
cars. I told Ilia that we could make money if we could get them for him.
Illa then suggested that we should get military uniform; which we did.
We started stopping cars at bus stops at night. We will flag down any
neat looking taxi and when we enter it will show the driver our toy gun
and force him to stop the vehicle. We will collect all his money and
zoom off with his vehicle. Then I will call our receiver who is at Ejule
community in Ofa Local Government of Kogi State. We will hand over the
vehicle to him. He pays us between N120,000 and N150,000 for each
vehicle. The charm I prepared for protection was highly effective and it
prevented the police from arresting us, but Illia was the person who
got me into trouble again. I don’t know where he went to rob. He did not
disclose the amount he stole, but he brought just the man’s car to me
and asked me to prepare charms that will prevent the man from looking
for him. He didn’t even give proper details about the operation. I
accepted and kept the key in my shrine and before I knew what was
happening he brought the police to my house and they arrested me.”On his
part, 30-year-old Christopher Ilia, who is a native of Lokoja, alleged
that his inability to secure a job led him into crime.“I became so
desperate after I lost my job. I started robbing people of their phones.
I went out very early in morning. I attacked people in broken down
vehicles or those who are working alone. I threaten them with my gun,”
he said.Both men are now in police detention and would be arraigned in
court soon.I made more money from snatching cars than treating broken bones 25-year-old suspect says

9:45pm PSTINEC says 14.5 million PVC of registered voters between 2017 and 2018 have been printed and ready for collection
The
Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) of all 14.5 million registered voters
between 2017 and 2018 have been printed and ready for collection as well
as all the PVCs of those who requested for replacement and relocation
of their cards ahead of 2019 general elections, had also been printed
and ready for collections. Prof. Mahmoud Yakubu, Chairman of the
Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), disclosed this on
Friday in Abuja after the swearing-in of the new Secretary to the
Commission, Mrs Rose Oriaran-Anthony.”The commission has printed all
PVCs for new registrants between April 27, 2017 and August 31, 2018. We
have also printed all the requests for replacement of lost cards, all
requests for transfer and relocations.The last batch that we printed are
for those who applied for transfer and relocation, and those who
applied for replacement of damaged and defaced cards. This will be
delivered immediately after the Christmas break. So we are happy to say
that all 14.5 million or so new registered voters have their cards
printed and delivered to the states. So we are good to go on that,”
Yakubu said. Yakubu, who also spoke on the ongoing strike by the
Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) and its implications on the
2019 general elections, said that the commission would meet with union
leaders in tertiary institutions for a way forward. The INEC Chairman
said that the ongoing strike was worrisome as the commission also
sourced some of its election ad hoc staff from the tertiary
institutions.”The bulk of the ad hoc staff will be drawn from the
National Youth Service Corps members but where there is shortfall, and
obviously there would be shortfall, we rely on the universities.Remember
we also rely on the universities to draw our collation and returning
officers. So the ongoing strike is worrisome in case some of them say
because of the ongoing strike they will not participate in the
elections.But the ASUU has been good friend of the commission and we
intend to meet with the President of the ASUU next week so that we can
discuss and iron this out. We will also extend it to the lecturers of
polytechnics and colleges of education so that we will meet with the
Academic Staff Union of Polytechnics (ASUP) and Colleges of Education
Academic Staff Union (COEASU) and all other unions in the tertiary
education sub-sectors,” the chairman said.US government partially shuts down for the third time in a year after congress failed to reach a funding deal for the border wall
Parts
of the United States federal government shut down at midnight after
Congress and the White House failed to reach a deal on Friday night to
avert the shuttering of several departments. Both the US House of
Representatives and the Senate adjourned after Senate Majority Whip John
Cornyn, a Texas Republican, said there would not be a vote Friday night
in the Senate. Funding for roughly a quarter of the federal government
then expired at midnight, including appropriations for the Departments
of Homeland Security, Justice, Housing and Urban Development, and other
parts of the government. This is the first time in 40 years that the
government has been closed three times in a year. However, before they
adjourned for the night, the Senate passed a bill to ensure federal
employees who are furloughed get back pay. It was passed by unanimous
consent, but still will need to pass the House.Nigeria’s Oil, Gas Earnings Slumped To $17.05bn In 2016, Lowest In 10 Years
Yearly average price of crude oil per barrel was $43.73 in 2016 as against $52.5 in 2015. Total oil production in 2016 was 659 million barrels as against 776 million barrels produced in 2015,

The total financial flows from Nigeria’s oil and gas sector slumped to $17.05 billion in 2016, representing a 31 per cent decline when compared to $24.79 billion in 2015, and a 75 percent plunge on the sector’s peak earnings of $68.44 billion generated in 2011.
The figures are contained in the latest report of the Nigeria Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (NEITI) released on Friday in Abuja.
Analysis of the report showed that the $17.05 billion earned in 2016 is the lowest in ten years and the fifth lowest in the 18 years covered by NEITI’s audit reports so far (1999 to 2016).
According to the report titled ‘NEITI 2016 Oil and Gas Industry Audit Report’, the plunge in revenue in 2016 resulted from the double whammy of low oil prices in the global market and reduced oil production in Nigeria, which in turn was caused by disruption and vandalism of oil assets and spike in crude theft, among others.
Yearly average price of crude oil per barrel was $43.73 in 2016 as against $52.5 in 2015. Total oil production in 2016 was 659 million barrels as against 776 million barrels produced in 2015, a fall of 15 percent.
According to the report, details of which were explained by NEITI’s spokesman, Dr. Orji Ogbonnaya Orji, the losses due to crude oil theft and sabotage rose from 27 million barrels in 2015 to 101 million barrels in 2016, representing an increase of 274 percent. This was aside losses due to deferment, which in 2016 was put at 144 million barrels which also went up by 65 percent when compared to the 87.5 million barrels in 2015.
“The bombing of the under-water 48-inch Forcados Oil Loading/Export Pipeline was one of many major occurrences that befell the industry in the year under review.
“This incident occurred in February 2016 and the line remained not operational for seven months,” the NEITI report stated.
The report noted that after surviving the slump in the global oil market in 2008 and 2009, Nigeria’s oil sector rebounded in 2010 with a 49 percent increase in total financial flows to $44.94 billion, followed by the peak of $68.44 billion in 2011.
However, flows from the sector have been trending downward since that peak year with $62.94 billion generated in 2012, $58.08 billion in 2013, $54.56 billion in 2014, and $24.79 billion in 2015.
Similarly, oil production has been on steady decline with 866 million barrels produced in 2012, 800 million barrels in 2013, 798 million barrels in 2014, 776 million barrels in 2015 and 659 million barrels in 2016.
NEITI’s audit reports independently reconcile payments by companies against receipts by government agencies, and cover key financial flows such as earnings from sale of Federation’s crude oil and gas, sector-specific taxes, fees and levies such as royalty, Petroleum Profit Tax (PPT), signature bonus, gas flared penalty, and other flows such as NDDC contribution, NCDMB levy, NESS fees, education tax and others.
The breakdown of the payment showed that the major earnings for 2016 came from export and domestic sale of the Federation crude oil and gas with $7.97 billion, PPT with $4.21 billion, and royalty oil with $1.57 billion.
A major highlight of 2016, according to the report, was that for the first time in Nigeria’s history, crude oil produced from Production Sharing Contracts (PSCs) overtook output from the Joint Ventures (JVs).
“In 2016, PSCs accounted for 324 million barrels, while the JVs accounted for 289.1 million barrels, (as against the 320 million barrels for PSCs and 375.5 million barrels for JVs in 2015).
“PSCs, a production arrangement introduced in 1993, thus became the leading production arrangement in 2016. The PSCs are mostly offshore, thus insulated from vandalism and sabotage, and are not constrained by adequacy/availability of equity funding by the Federation.
“This change in production structure pushes to the fore the need to renegotiate the terms of the PSCs as stipulated in the Deep Offshore and Inland Basin Production Sharing Contracts Act of 1993 so as to increase government’s take.
The 2016 NEITI report covered 84 entities, comprising the following: ten government agencies, seven power generating companies, 62 oil and gas companies, three refineries, and the NLNG and NGC.
Roads Blocked As Osinbajo Visits Delta State

‘OnlyInNaija
This is the ever busy Warri Sapele road, main market axis. People are forced to trek long distances, leaving their cars, keke and bikes at military blockades.
Other roads like Airport road, Osubi road, Deco road, Robert road, Avenue etc were also affected.
How can you shutdown an entire town for a whole day without prior notice or alternative route for road users just because a seating VP is visiting.
If you are not good at trekking and you leave within Warri and its environs, take my advice, better seat at home. Otherwise, you go trek belle full. As I dey type this message, my eyes don see my ears’.

Labour Threatens to resume nationwide strike January 2
LAGOS— ORGANISED Labour, yesterday, issued a December 31
deadline to the Federal Government to send a draft bill on the new
national minimum wage to the National Assembly for passage into
law to avoid a nationwide strike in the new year.
At a national leadership meeting of leaders of Nigeria Labour
Congress, NLC, Trade Union Congress of Nigeria, TUC, and United
Labour Congress of Nigeria, ULC, held in Lagos, the Organised Labour
also rejected the Federal Government’s plan to set up another
high-powered Technical Committee on the new minimum wage,
describing it as “diversionary and delay tactics.”
In a communiqué signed Ayuba Wabba, Bobboi Kaigama and Joe
Ajaero, President of NLC, TUC and ULC, respectively, they
threatened a nationwide strike from January 2, 2019, should the
Federal Government fail to send the a draft bill on the new
national minimum wage to NASS before December 31, 2018.
Reading the communiqué on behalf of the three Labour Centres,
Wabba said: “almost two months of the submission of the report
of the National Minimum Wage Tripartite Committee’s report
which included a draft bill, no bill has been submitted to the
National Assembly for passage into law.
The Federal Government is planning to set up a high-powered
Technical Committee which is alien to the tripartite process and
International Labour Organization, ILO, conventions on National
Minimum Wage setting mechanism.
The National Minimum Wage Committee was both Technical and all-
encompassing in its compositions. The National Minimum Wage is not
only for public sector workers, but for all workers both private
and public.”
The communiqué reads: “Consequently, the meeting resolves as
follows that the Federal Government is expected to transmit the
New National Minimum Wage Bill to the National Assembly on or
before December 31, 2018.
“We reject in its entirety the plan by the federal government to
set up another high-powered technical Committee on the new
national minimum wage. It is diversionary and a delay tactics.
“Nigerian workers are urged to be vigilant and prepared to
campaign and vote against candidates and Political Parties who are
not supportive of the implementation of the New National
Minimum Wage. Finally Organised Labour will not guarantee
industrial Peace and harmony if after the 31st of December 2018,
the Draft Bill is not transmitted to the National Assembly.”
“This serves as a statutory notice for Organised Labour to recall
our suspended Nation-wide Industrial action.”

Olamide, Lil Kesh in trouble over new single promoting money ritual
‘Logo Benz’ is the title of the song currently trending on social media for all the wrong reasons.
Nigerians expressed their displeasure on their different social media accounts shortly after the release of the song.
@Isimaodeh wrote “This Olamide and Lil Kesh song is painful to listen to. A song that glorifies rituals, internet fraud and blood money.
@Officialdaddymo , on the other hand, stated that “Why is the new Lil Kesh and Olamide song promoting and glorifying ritual killings and blood money?
“Why must you use terrible lyrics like this, ‘If money no enter I go do blood money’.
“There needs to be a line that you can’t cross when it comes to lyrics in music. This is one of them.”
@jajaPhd said “Music is usually a reflection of the society from which it originates at the time it is produced.
“So, Olamide and Lil Kesh are just producing music that reflects our society at this point in time just as Fela’s music in Fela’s time.”
@Bhadosky said “If money no enter I go do blood money.
“I have been shouting for years but people seem unbothered.
“Can we all come together and tell Olamide and Lil Kesh that enough is enough.”
Some Nigerian twitter users have called for the song to be banned while others are threatening to boycott Olamide’s upcoming concert in Lagos, ‘OLIC,’ with emphasis on the effects the song could have on children.
@peterrock wrote “I can’t wait for the government and in fact I hope the government bans Olamide ft lil kesh’s stupid song as soon as possible.
“Olamide is a cancer to the Nigerian music industry and youths in general.”
@royzkingin wrote, “At this moment, Olamide and Lil kesh are toxic to the music industry.”
@tamiromeo said “Olamide is cancelled” shouldn’t end here, If you really mean it, simply don’t show up for OLIC.
“He and his mafia should enjoy their blood money alone.”
@voiceofsanity said, “This Logo Benz song is enough a reason for Nigerians not to grace his OLIC this weekend.”
@xotie also said “You guys should boycott OLIC.
“We need to send a message to Olamide, this new song is so sad.
“There are families that have lost loved ones to rituals.”
Many would recall that Olamide had to recently respond to criticisms from fans for promoting social vices in his single ‘science student’.
This latest criticism is coming a few days to his annual concert, ‘OLIC,’ scheduled for Dec. 23 at Eko Convention Centre in Lagos.

Supreme Court denies Trump administration request to immediately enforce new asylum rules
Today,
the Supreme Court upheld a federal judge's order blocking the Trump
administration's new asylum restrictions. Chief Justice John Roberts
sided with the four liberal justices in the 5-4 ruling. The
administration's policy, signed on November 9, would temporarily bar
migrants who illegally cross into the US through the southern border
from seeking asylum outside of official ports of entry. The ruling comes
after a federal judge opted to extend a ban on the new restrictions
Wednesday.
