Cardoso urges West Africa to unite for financial growth

0

The Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Olayemi Cardoso has called for more regional collaboration to strengthen financial stability and growth in the West African region.

The governor made the call at the 10th meeting of the College of Supervisors for Non-Bank Financial Institutions Abuja on Monday.

The event, hosted by the West African Monetary Institute, gathered regulators, policymakers, and financial experts from across the region to discuss critical issues facing the non-bank financial sector in West Africa.

In his address, Cardoso underscored the importance of regional collaboration in strengthening financial stability and promoting economic growth within the West African Monetary Zone.

“Now, more than ever, the need for collaboration and cooperation amongst Member States cannot be overemphasized,” he emphasised, quoting an African proverb to highlight the significance of unity in achieving common goals.

The Governor commended the efforts of the CSNBFI in advancing regulatory frameworks, notably mentioning the recent adoption of the Model Act for Non-Bank Financial Institutions and Non-Bank Financial Holding Companies across the WAMZ.

This legislative milestone, approved in March 2024, marks a pivotal step towards harmonising supervisory practices and enhancing the resilience of the financial sector.

Highlighting emerging trends, the apex bank’s governor addressed the increasing role of fintech innovations and their implications for financial stability.

“Fintech loans and digital platforms are reshaping financial intermediation,” he remarked, urging supervisors to bolster their cybersecurity frameworks and adopt risk-based supervisory approaches to mitigate associated risks.

The Governor also emphasised the College’s focus on climate risk regulation, acknowledging the sector’s vulnerability to environmental shifts and the need for tailored regulatory responses aligned with global standards.

Cardoso urged delegates to leverage the platform for knowledge exchange and collaboration, emphasizing the importance of learning from each other’s experiences in navigating the evolving financial landscape of West Africa.

Chairman of the College, Mr. Yaw Sapong, welcomed delegates and acknowledged the crucial role non-bank financial institutions play in promoting financial inclusion and economic growth.

Sapong highlighted achievements made by the College, including harmonized regulatory frameworks, automation of supervisory processes, and strengthened AML/CFT regimes.

He emphasised the need for coordinated policy responses to address current economic challenges, including inflation and currency fluctuations.

“We must continue to work together to build a resilient and inclusive financial sector that supports sustainable economic growth in our region,” Sapong urged.

The Director General of WAMI, Dr. Olorunsola Olowofeso emphasised the need for strengthened resilience in the financial sector, citing emerging risks such as climate-related risks, cyber threats, and digitization challenges.

“We must continue to monitor policy actions and spillovers to ensure the financial system is resilient,” he urged.

“WAMI remains committed to implementing the WAMZ integration agenda,” he said.

The CSNBFI meeting aims to review progress made in the NBFI sector since late 2023 and formulate strategies to address current challenges. Discussions will encompass regulatory harmonisation, cybersecurity, and the impact of digital innovations on financial services.

FG terminates contracts with three firms for non-performance

0

The Federal Ministry of Works has terminated contracts with three companies – Mothercat Ltd, Dantata & Sawoe Construction Ltd, and RCC Ltd – due to non-performance on the dualization of the Obajana-Benin road project.

According to a statement on Monday by the Special Adviser (Media) to the Minister of Works, Orji Uchenna, the termination was necessary due to the inordinate delay and failure of the companies to fulfil their contractual obligations.

The Minister, David Umahi, directed engineers to take over the sites and measure the work done to facilitate the takeover from the companies.

He noted that the contracts, worth billions of naira, were awarded in 2012 but were abandoned by the contractors, leaving road users to suffer due to the deplorable condition of the road.

The Minister warned that the government will not tolerate acts of unseriousness and sabotage by contractors, stating that “going forward, all funded but non-performing contracts shall be terminated.”

This move is seen as a bold step by the Renewed Hope administration to address the country’s infrastructure challenges.

“We will not condone any act that will hinder our progress. We are determined to change the narrative of Nigeria’s road infrastructure”, Umahi said.

The terminated contracts include Contract No. 6136 with Mothercat Ltd for the dualization of Obajana-Benin road, section II (Okene-Auchi) in Kogi/Edo State; Contract No. 6137 with Dantata & Sawoe Construction Ltd for the dualization of Obajana-Benin road, section III (Auchi-Ehor) in Edo State; Contract No. 6138 with RCC Ltd for the dualization of Obajana-Benin road, section IV (Ehor-Benin) in Edo State.

The spokesperson for the Traffic Compliance and Enforcement Agency, Babatunde Akinbiyi, said the vehicles involved were an unregistered Howo truck and a Toyota Hiace Bus with registration number BEN 823 ZW.

Akinbiyi disclosed further that the accident occurred due to speeding on the part of the bus driver which led to loss of control and eventual collision with the truck.

He added that 20 persons were involved in the accident comprising 15 males and five females.

“There is a road traffic accident at Area Command hill, Inbound Ijebu Ode, on Sagamu-Benin Expressway at about 0630hrs on 01/07/2024. Two vehicles were involved including a Howo truck with no registration number and a Toyota Hiace bus with registration number BEN 823 ZW.

“According to eyewitnesses, the accident was caused by excessive speed on the part of the bus driver leading to loss of control thereby crashing into the truck. The victims are 15 males and five females with four injured and two dead.”

The TRACE spokesperson disclosed that the remains of the dead victims were deposited at the Olabisi Onabanjo University Teaching Hospital morgue while the injured were taken to the same hospital for treatment.

“Accident victims have been rescued to OOUTH while the bodies of the two dead victims were deposited at OOUTH morgue,” Akinbiyi stated.

Abuja estate developer, Valington Homes incures N10.5m fine in court over tresspas on FCT land

0

A High Court of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) has imposed a fine of N10.5 million on an Abuja-based estate developer, Valington Homes and Property Development Services, for unlawful trespass on a plot of land in the FCT.
The land, allocated by the FCT authorities to Adebayo Opabiyi, was said to have been forcefully encroached upon by the company years after the lawful allocation was carried out.
Delivering judgment in a suit instituted by Adebayo Opabiyi against the estate development company, Justice Edward Ekpo held that the plaintiff successfully established his ownership of the land known as Plot 285 at the Jikwoyi Extension District of Abuja with valid documents from the FCT.
The judge held that the company was wrong in moving earth equipment, especially excavators, to the land to destroy developments carried out by the owner for the purpose of establishing its own presence on the land.
Justice Ekpo therefore ordered the company to pay the plaintiff N10 million as compensation for the willful destruction of properties on the land.
He also ordered that another N500,000 be paid by the company to the plaintiff as the cost of prosecuting the case.
Justice Ekpo further directed that 10 per cent of the fine must be paid annually by the company until the judgement debt is fully liquidated.
