Osinbajo inaugurates Road Safety training school in Delta State
Nigeria’s Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo has inaugurated the Federal Road Safety Corps, FRSC, Marshall Inspectorate Training School at Owa-Alero, Ika North East Council of Delta State.
Built by the Delta State government, the school is designed to cater for the inspectorate cadre of the corps, and is the fourth of such training school established by the agency in its quest to ensure safety and reduce carnage on Nigerian roads.
The FRSC Marshall Inspectorate Training School seats on 20 hectares of land and consists of an administration building, a 500-seater auditorium, a lecture hall, library, hostels, clinic, among other facilities.
Vice President Osinbajo said at the inauguration on Thursday that the construction of the school showed that effective collaboration between the Nigerian government through its agencies and state governments would bring about more dividends and improved service delivery for Nigerians.
He said; “it is an excellent exemplar of the benefits of collaboration between State Governments and Federal Government agencies. And as it should be, the ultimate beneficiaries are the good people of Delta State and the Country at large.”
Commending Governor Ifeanyi Okowa for the construction of the modern, fully furnished buildings, Professor Osinbajo noted that it was a thoughtful contribution of the state government towards making Nigerian roads safer.
He said; “I am persuaded to encourage all levels of government to emulate Delta, Enugu, Plateau, and Oyo States which have exemplified this spirit of cooperation for development by their tremendous support for the Road Safety institutions within their jurisdictions.”
The Vice President also commended the cordial relationship between the Federal Civil Service Commission (FCSC) and the FRSC which according to him “has led to the establishment of two additional training institutions in the last one year.
Lauding the efforts of the FRSC management over the years, Professor Osinbajo said; “indeed the choice of Nigeria as one of the Centers of Excellence for road safety in Africa by the Africa Development Bank is a clear acknowledgment of the considerable contributions of the FRSC to the development of road safety in the region.”
“The Corps has continued to show appreciable determination to build staff capacity as a major requirement for the understanding of road traffic matters as well as tackling the associated challenges.
“These laudable efforts of the Corps are in alignment with the Policy thrust of the Present Administration in its Economic Recovery and Growth Plan (ERGP). Part of the critical focus of the ERGP is capacity building and skill acquisition interventions,” Professor Osinbajo explained.
He said that the Nigerian Government would continue to support organisations that demonstrate commitment to their statutory duties and appreciated the government and people of Delta State for the huge financial resources dedicated to the project.
“It is certainly an investment with long-term returns to the immediate community, the State, and the country in general. I wish to charge personnel of the Federal Road Safety Corps to put this institution to the best of use,” he added.
The Delta State Governor, Dr Ifeanyi Okowa thanked the Vice President for taking a keen interest in the progress and development of Delta State.
His words: “Delta State is the VP’s adopted home. Since the inception of our administration in 2015, the Vice President has taken more than a keen interest in our progress and development as a State. He has made it his priority time and time again, to be part of what is going on here in our dear State.”
“Your Excellency, we greatly value your support, friendship, and partnership. You have shown yourself to be a true patriot, a completely detribalized Nigerian with abiding faith in the unity and progress of a country where justice, equity, and fairness reigns
“This project that is about to be commissioned is a good example of what can happen where there is understanding, cooperation, and synergy between the national and sub-national governments irrespective of political affiliations,” Governor Okowa noted.
The Corps Marshall, FRSC, Mr. Boboyi Oyeyemi said that the training school would not only improve the human capacity building of the corps but also contribute to urbanisation of the community.
Besides Governor Ifeanyi Okowa and the FRSC Corps Marshal, Mr Boboye Oyeyemi, other dignitaries at the event included; Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Mr. Festus Keyamo, who accompanied the Vice President, the Obi of Owa-Alero,
His Royal Majesty Dr. Emmanuel Efeizomor II, who is also the Chairman of the Delta State Traditional Rulers Council, also led other traditional rulers to the event.
Before commissioning the school, the VP paid a courtesy call on the Obi of Owa-Alero, where the traditional ruler commended the Vice President for his progressive politics that he observed transcends partisanship.
Keystone Bank lauds Nigerian Farmers Group, pledges more support
A Management team from a new generation bank, Keystone Bank, has commended the expansion projects at a farm settlement owned by the Nigerian Farmers Group and Cooperative Society (NFGCS) in Nasarawa State.
The bank made the commendation after a surprise visit to the farm on Wednesday, saying it was impressed with the ongoing expansion works at the farm.
The Keystone Bank team from Lagos and North Central led by the Divisional Head (Abuja-Wuse Division), Mr. Akinsanmi Falaki, said the visit to the farm was part of the efforts to monitor the Central Bank support for the farm, verifying progress and also providing further support for the farmers.
The team leader said the visit was part of the bank’s routine monitoring and checks on credit facilities availed to farmers by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
The farm, which is owned by over 500 farmers and managed by the NFGCS in Kokona local government area of Nasarawa State, is one of the single largest community-based farm settlements in Nigeria currently supported by the CBN.
“What I saw on ground is that there have been significant improvement on ground. The rice mill is now automated. They also now have automated poultry, cold room, they are now concluding the setting up of their greenhouse, they have planted variety of crops.
“I am here today as a top management staff of the bank, part of our routine check is to ensure that costumers utilise the funds availed to them properly and translate same into profitability.
“So far, so good, I do not have any doubt that Nigeria Farmers Group will perform and they will continue to meet their payment obligations and translate all the investment we have seen on ground to naira and kobo.
“So, it is just to encourage them to continue to work hard. I am happy that I saw the principals on ground working very hard, even when we came to the farm unannounced,” Falaki told journalists on the farm.
The financial expert, however, advised management of the farm to continue to build good relationship with creditors so as to continue to support them even with professional advice.
Also speaking, the national coordinator of the group, Mr. Retson Tedheke, said he was impressed with the visit as it provided ground to strengthen the existing relationship with Keystone Bank as well as the CBN.
“I am happy they were overwhelmed by what they saw with crop cultivation ongoing for the season by over 500 farmers.
“They saw a 45-ton rice mill, they also saw 30,000-capacity automated poultry for birds completed. They saw indoor ranch with the capacity of holding 500 animals for fattening, including cow, sheep and goats. Construction of greenhouse ongoing,” Tedheke said.
He added that the farm has positioned itself as an example of what the federal government want to see as farm settlements or RUGA as some will prefer to call it in the entire country.
“We already have a farmhouse and settlement where majority of the staff live. A standard football pitch and sports complex for indoor and outdoor recreations,” he added.
Tedheke, therefore, expressed confidence that the support gotten from the federal government through the CBN and currently monitored by Keystone Bank would no doubt yield positive results, noting that the government needed to invest more to expand the capacity of the farm so as to increase the number of staff from over 500 to at least 1,000 and above.
He said: “You can use this as a way of fighting insecurity because the truth is, this is an economy question. If you are able do this in all the local government areas or expand what we already have on ground, you can take 10,000 youths away from the streets.
“The farm has committed 100% of the facility given to it towards upgrading. More need to be done urgently to empower Nigerians knowing that we may have issues with draught.
“The farm has been able to build a dam and a powerline. The dam has been able to account for support of farmers and communities around the area farming all year in the last one year.
“A lot has been done but more need to be done,” Tedheke said even as he commended the CBN low interest rate facility.
He, however, appealed to the apex bank to summon the courage to release more funds for farmers like the group, who have dedicated their life to building the nation’s agro sector.
2,000 children in Northeast Nigeria cleared of links with Boko Haram
The United Nations Children’s Fund has disclosed that over 2,000 children have been cleared of having any links to non-state armed groups, especially the Boko Haram Terrorists and its splinter group-the Islamic State in West Africa Province (ISWAP) in Nigeria’s Northeast region since 2016.
To this end, the UN agency called on tbr community and political leaders in the country to condemn violations of the rights of children.
UNICEF Chief of Borno Field Office, Ms. Phuong T. Nguyen said this on Wednesday during a consultative meeting with 27 local government chairmen of the state in Maiduguri. The meeting which was organised by the Ministry of Local Government and Emirate Affairs was attended by government officials, including the Commissioner for Women Affairs and Social Development, Hajia Zuwaira Gambo.
Nguyen said that “2,013 children in the north-east have been absolved of alleged association with armed group, adding that 2,188 others have been released by the Civilian Joint Task Force since 2016”.
While noting that armed conflict in the north-east has been characterized with forced separation, recruitment into armed groups, sexual and gender-based violence and other violations of children’s rights.
“Some have been used as suicide bombers, and others as victims of sexual and gender-based violence. These children have been exposed to tremendous psychosocial distress. These girls and boys have hopes, dreams and incredible energy to fulfil their future. Even though they have had horrible experiences in the past, their dreams are still valid. Our responsibility as a government and development partners is to ensure that these children and women are fully supported to reimagine their dreams and fulfil their hopes and aspirations,’’ she said.
In her address, Gambo urged the chairmen to be ambassadors of a smoother reintegration for children formerly associated with armed groups.
“There is a misunderstanding of the process and stakeholders need to understand what the process is about. Many of these children were abducted or conscripted against their wishes. That is why most of them sneak out of the bush to surrender to the military. We must commend development partners who have supported the state government with the empowerment of these children and community members,’’ she said.

AFN: Ibrahim Gusau begs sports ministry for Reconciliation
…pleads with Ministry, AFN not to dump Puma kits
According to the Guardian report, embattled former President of the Athletics Federation of Nigeria (AFN) Ibrahim Gusau wants reconciliation with the Ministry of Youth and Sports Development as the AFN.
Gusau’s newfound conciliatory disposition is coming after seizing the password of the federation for over a year and turning himself into the sole administrator of the federation and jeopardizing Nigeria’s relay team’s participation at the Poland world relay by sending an email to World Athletics that Nigeria will not participate.
He had also instituted multiple court cases against the Minister, the Ministry and the federal government but now wants reconciliation.
But the Guardian of May 6, 2021 reports that, “Meanwhile, embattled AFN President, Ibrahim Shehu Gusau has appealed to the sports ministry and his fellow board members to reconsider their stance on the Puma kits.
“It will be sad for Team Nigeria to abandon the Puma kits as our athletes prepare for the Tokyo Olympics Games. Even if we offend God, we beg for forgiveness. We are humans. Let us put behind what happened in the past and work towards the progress of our great country. Puma gave Nigeria kits worth over $2.5 million for four years and we should make use of them, especially now that there is no money in the country. I have instructed the Technical Director to release the Puma kits for our athletes so that they will appear in uniform at the U.S. Relays and at the Tokyo Olympics. I am ready to work with them,” Gusau told The Guardian.
Simply to protect the deal he had with Puma Gusau is seeking reconciliation while in the past he has shunned several attempts at reconciliation. Gusau took the government to court. Gusau has been charged by the IG of Police and is now facing trial for criminal breach of trust, theft and funds diversion.
Gusau refused to sign the resolution reached by the committee of Confederation of African Athletics and World Athletics in April that would have solved and reconciled the parties.
His prevarication has left analysts questioning the kind of reconciliation Gusau has in mind with some saying he wants what has not given.
Group kicks against plot to destabilise Buhari’s government
… vows to defend nation’s democracy
The Nigeria First movement says it will resist any attempt by vested interests to destabilise President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.
The pan-Nigerian organisation said it is aware of the plot by disgruntled elements hiding under the nomenclature of activism to perpetrate evil in the country through the sponsorship of acts of violence along ethnic and religious lines.
Nigeria First which raised the alarm at a press conference on Thursday in Abuja, however, vowed to defend the country’s democracy.
The Department of State Services (DSS) had on Sunday alerted Nigerians on sinister moves by misguided elements to wreak havoc on the government, sovereignty and corporate existence of the country.
The Presidency echoed this warning on Tuesday, adding that the intention is to eventually throw the country into a tailspin, which would compel a forceful and undemocratic change of leadership.
And speaking on behalf of the group, National Secretary,
Richard Augustine-Adie said urgent and proactive steps must be taken, else Nigeria would end up in ruins.
He, therefore, called on all well-meaning Nigerians to “stay united in one spirit, body and soul, for it is neither East nor West, South or North but One Nigeria, and the Nigeria of our dreams which is within reach if we stay united”.
While commending security agencies for their efforts in addressing the security challenges in the country, the group further cautioned these “unscrupulous elements to channel their resources and time to more productive ventures”.
The Nigeria First added that it would mobilise Nigerians to the streets should they continue with their despicable attempt at destabilising the country.
Read full statement below:
The leadership of Nigeria First welcomes you all to the important press conference in light of the recent happenings in the country that portends grave danger if the relevant stakeholders do not take urgent and proactive steps in the country.
Nigeria First, as a pan-Nigerian organization with membership across the country, is alarmed with the turn of events in the country regarding the activities of some disgruntled elements that are hell-bent on causing disaffection in the country through a nefarious plot to truncate our nascent democracy.
It is consequently despicable that the harbingers of violence and destruction have perfected the plot to destabilize the country to fulfil their desire to see the country burn and seize to exist.
Nigeria First is aware of the seriousness of the plot and, as such, wishes to inform members of the general public to be wary of individuals and groups hiding under the nomenclature of activism to perpetrate evil in the country through the sponsorship of acts of violence along ethnic and religious lines.
These individuals and groups have been behind the religious and ethnic tension in the country in an apparent attempt to divide the country along these lines and eventually set the country at war at this critical point of our existence.
We wish to state in unequivocal terms that should urgent and proactive steps not taken, these harbingers of violence and conflict would have their way, and Nigeria would end up in ruins to the chagrin of the vision of our founding fathers.
This is indeed the time for all well-meaning Nigerians to stay united in one spirit, body and soul, for it is neither East nor West, South or North but One Nigeria, and the Nigeria of our dreams which is within reach if we stay united and resist overtures from these unscrupulous elements to destroy the country.
Nigeria First, as an organization in the vanguard of promoting the ideals of good governance, peace and unity in Nigeria, is sending a clarion call to all religious and ethnic groups in Nigeria to see this trying period as an avenue to prove to the world that there is strength in our diversity.
This is also an avenue to send a strong message to these unscrupulous elements to channel their resources and time to more productive ventures that would have a meaningful impact on the lives of ordinary Nigerians instead of promoting and sponsoring acts of violence across the country.
Nigeria First wishes to remind Nigerians that the pledge to Nigeria our country, to be faithful, loyal and honest. To serve Nigeria with all our strength, to defend her unity and uphold her glory, is indeed sacrosanct.
It is, therefore, our considered opinion that this is indeed time to come together and defend the unity of Nigeria in this critical point of our existence. If we don’t do this, nobody will do it for us. It consequently behoves us to ensure that those plotting the destabilization of Nigeria are put to shame.
Nigeria First, as an organization, is also using this medium to inform all those that have been fueling religious and ethnic tension in the country that Nigerians shall indeed expose and reject them in totality.
We shall also mobilize Nigerians to the streets should they continue with their despicable attempt at destabilizing the country. We shall march for the unity of Nigeria, and we shall ensure that Nigeria stays united as ever.
We also wish to commend the efforts of our security agencies in their efforts at addressing the security challenges in the country. It is indeed a statement that they have been proactive and doing all within their means that Nigerians are protected across the country.
We must also remind Nigerians that the task at hand requires all hands to be on deck in our quest to stay united as a people and as a country, for united we stand and divided we fall.
Nigerians must also do well to realize that the gains recorded in critical sectors of our economy have rattled some vested interests. As such, they are hell-bent on throwing the country into chaos by all means necessary.
Nigeria First shall continue to engage critical stakeholders in this regard, and we make this solemn pledge to ensure that Nigeria continues to enjoy peace and tranquillity.
Our support for the strides of the Muhammadu Buhari administration remains unflinching. This much we have demonstrated over the years, and we shall continue to in the quest to translate the hopes and aspirations of Nigerians across the country into tangible realities.
It is our firm belief that Nigeria shall overcome its adversaries, and we shall come out as one solid and indivisible entity.
We thank you all for your time and attention and implore us to take this message of peace and unity to our various constituencies.
Buhari on Wednesday welcomed the release of the 27 students of the Federal College of Forestry Mechanization, Afaka, Kaduna State
Buhari on Wednesday welcomed the release of the 27 students of the Federal College of Forestry Mechanization, Afaka, Kaduna State. He also educated their friends, families, the authorities and the people of Kaduna State about the evolution. Buhari’s place was included in a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, titled”President Buhari welcomes the launch of Forestry School pupils’
“I welcome the release of the 27 students of the Federal College of Forestry Mechanization, Afaka, and congratulate their friends, families, and the government and people of Kaduna State. We are happy they have been released.”
The President was quoted as stating that, “We’re glad they’ve been released. “We express our profound appreciation to each of the celebrities who contributed one way or another to the happy result, particularly, the security and defence agencies, the officials of the Ministry of Environment and the authorities of Kaduna State. We thank Nigerians for their own prayers.
“In accordance with Shehu, Buhari is known for steadfastness and safety consciousness on the part of taxpayers and the law enforcement bureaus. He was likewise believed to have deplored what he called the increasing politicisation of safety in the nation by opportunistic politicians.”The President appeals to the launch of the pupils of their Greenfield University and the rest of the taxpayers held in captivity, expressing the strong conclusion of his government to make sure the Nigerians lived in a state where everybody can proceed where they need, whenever they need with no fear of kidnapping and banditry,” the announcement added.
“I call for steadfastness & security awareness on the part of the law enforcement agencies and citizens. Let me once again condemn the increasing politicization of security in Nigeria, by opportunistic politicians. All hands must be on deck to achieve enduring peace & security”
If anyone had told George Floyd – Taking a clue from Derek Chauvin’s Conviction
On that faithful 25th day of May 2020, if anyone had told George Floyd that the African-American it would be his last, I presume the African American blood in him would have sparked up some rebuke religiously or spiritually such as;’May the gods forbid’,’ I rebuke that in Jesus name’,” It isn’t my part’ and so on. That is the African spirit and it doesn’t know bounds even when you are on the white person’s land.
To conquer the common phrase of a trigger happy authorities’, he opted to sniff life from a fellow guy using choke — holding him down by the throat with his knee. I observed in pain wondering what he was thinking to subject Floyd to such a gruesome act resulting in his death. His faint voice I can’t breathe’ have to have melted Chauvin’s heart but it seemed he had non at the time. It was grieving to see that movie on social programs and cable networks.
This spurred a rampage in the complete Minneapolis that caught the attention of the world. My heart is heavy not simply for Chauvin’s actions that denied a healthy-looking brother of his right to existence. But I despair more for my home country, where a lot of these have occurred and justice is swept under the rug.
It was agitation to terminate the incessant harassments, molestations, and killings of innocent citizens from the men of the Nigerian Police. As opposed to yield favourable effects or alter it resulted in what sounds like a hijack to dent the development causing a shipwreck.

Countless better still thousands of Chauvin’s exist at our Police Force and they execute life-threatening actions resulting in loss of lives that are unaccounted for. Where the offenders are booked, the legal system hasn’t managed to convict lots of these and they’re still in the force wielding around with guns purchased with taxpayers’ money. Among the cheering elements of Chauvin’s story was how he had been fished out immediately and turned into a public figure to get the negative or incorrect reason.
Derek Chauvin was not just charged with three count charges of third-degree murder, second-degree murder, and manslaughter, he was tried and convicted in the space of 11 months. It began from his trial lasting just 15 days, together with 44 witnesses into the case. The peak of it was that that Judge Cahill didn’t wait for long but only about 11 hours to reach a verdict and obtained Chauvin convicted of three charges.
This occurs where the associations are properly ordered and run independently. Of course, the American Judicial system might not be 100 percent in its modus operandi, but this sweet judgment has put their judicial procedure on a high pedestal on an issue that brought a worldwide audience.
Justice of this magnitude is a herculean task in a system knotted in coercion, corruption, manipulation of judges, intentional delay of case files where trials can be hauled for half a decade or more, decayed and dilapidated court infrastructure, poor wages for judicial staff which has led in an indefinite strike by Judicial Staff Union of Nigeria (JUSUN) since April 06, 2021. This sort of system will barely deliver justice and it is only going to continue to soften the expectation of the masses such that they would rather let the thing off the grid compared to waste time looking for legal proceedings. This is normal people as a people and it is prevalent in our judicial system.

Does one wonder how a lot of the trigger-happy police officers have been shamed nationwide? Often, we only hear that the Force has apprehended the officers in question and would be attempted. From there, we’re kept in the dark and that is it. Where they are declared to be dismissed, instances of them in service abound and they walk openly while the sufferer’s family remains in misery. Who hasn’t heard men of the police force in Nigeria boast how they have killed, and nothing happened? Actually, they make statements such as;’ I move to kill you and nothing go occur’; ‘e p do me make I mild (take ) individual’;’ I move to kill you throw way (off )’ and lots of unimaginable statements to sabotage the innocent and overburdened citizens they took an oath to guide and protect. These officers have become reckless with words from the ability of the guns they carry.
Not to forget the area of the eyewitness, the role of Darnella Frazier was well recognized with her video recording of this episode, which she uploaded on her FB wall that triggered the global protest of police brutality and racism. As a people, we have heroes and heroines who cover Chauvin-like scenes, but they are soon found and taken care of. I’ve had to go to Ibadan in August 2020 in the simplicity of the lockdown and interstate journey. A neighbour was unlawfully detained for 72 hours because the Police punish him together along with his mobile phone while his car approached the checkpoint. His offence was that the police watched him holding his telephone at one of the (illegal) checkpoints. His phone was captured and smashed living him without a phone a reach his family.
This is what happens in our society in which the uniform guys abhor civilians holding their telephones within their premises or sight.
The fear of not being caught has inhibited the type of evidence required to nail a mean Nigerian police officer who displays’Chauvinism’ on civilians. This must be addressed by possible legislation which enables the citizens to be permitted to utilize their camera-enabled cellular devices to catch any scene of a crime or interest scenes by law enforcement agents. For years now, an average road user around the nation’s highways can’t or dare not get or make a call or be seen with his or her phone handy whilst approaching a roadblock or checkpoint from the uniform guys be it NPF or NA. It is a crime that would amount to impounding the vehicle, regular search of passengers, and invading their privacies at will. This is supposed to be assessed and stopped.
Space would not permit me in this piece to list some names of sufferers of Police brutality and no one has heard anything about the guilty officers. We will need to make deliberate efforts to emulate what is right and not in books. The #BlackLivesMatter campaign was a major trend on societal platforms. We also need to champion more home-related problems of police brutality. If we keep quiet, we all could become victims and also our blood spilt on the roads with one to hold accountable.
Beyond protesting and agitating against the excesses of the authorities, we also need to start drumming for the judiciary to be instantaneous in delivering conclusions of Chauvin’s related cases or issues in our country. It’s no longer sufficient to get the officers dismissed, the entire court procedure from trial to certainty ought to be publicized at each stage as we saw in the event of Chauvin. The world needed a regular update on the case, and it arrived through the desire of most.

Their faces should tendency across media channels to a degree that they’d beg the ground to open and swallow them before they are convicted.
If this becomes a practice, it is going to go a long way to reform law enforcement and judicial institutions. Uniformed employees will start to believe twice before satisfying their urge to spend the life of another, whom they never created. It will lessen the rising death profile of our young ones in the hands of police brutality. It will restore confidence to believe in the force and embrace personnel as a compatriot.
