The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja on Friday, affirmed the election of Gov. Douye Diri of Bayelsa.
The Court thereby set aside the judgment of the Bayelsa Governorship Election Petition Tribunal which nullified Diri's election as a result of the unlawful exclusion of the Advanced Nigeria Democratic Party and its candidate, King George, from the exercise.
The three-man election petition tribunal sitting in Abuja had, in a split decision of two-to-one, nullified the November 16, 2019 Bayelsa State governorship election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dissatisfied with the judgment, Diri, his party, the Peoples Democratic Party, and the Independent National Electoral Commission had filed separate appeals against it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The appellate court held that there was enough evidence to show that the case of the ANDP was statute-barred, the party, having not filed its petition within 14 days as stipulated by law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On another grounds of appeal, Justice Obande Ogbunya also agreed with the appellant that INEC was right in excluding the ANDP from the November 16 governorship poll on grounds of disqualification of the ANDP\u2019s deputy governorship candidate, who was said to be underage at the time of the election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Justice Ogbunya noted that on the whole, Diri\u2019s case had merit and he subsequently affirmed his election as governor of Bayelsa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The creation of new zonal commands by the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu may have pitched him against the Police Service Commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The commission has refused to approve the promotion of 112 senior police officers until the issue of creation of zonal Commands are resolved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Consequently, the commission is asking Adamu, to provide the Presidential approval on the creation of new commands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Though the commission promoted Assistant Inspector -General of Police, Sanusi Lemu to Deputy Inspector General of Police, to replace retired DIG Abdulmajid Ali, representing the North Central.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It also approved the promotion of Commissioner of Police, Mustapha Dandaura, former CP Anambra and Rivers States, to the substantive rank of AIG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The IG had in May announced the establishment of five zonal commands, including Ondo\/Ekiti command with headquarters at Akure, Ondo State; Enugu\/Anambra\/Ebonyi Command with headquarters in Ukpo-Dunukofia in Anambra State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Others are Bayelsa\/Rivers command with headquarters in Yenogoa,Bayelsa State;
Katsina,\/Kaduna command with headquarters in Katsina; Yobe\/Borno command with headquarters in Maiduguri, Borno State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Force Intelligence Bureau was also excised from the FCID to become a full-fledged department to be headed by a DIG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But rising from its 9th Plenary meeting in Abuja on Monday and Tuesday, presided over by the PSC Chairman, Musiliu Smith, the commission said the affected officers who were drawn from the new commands would not be promoted until the IGP provided the presidential authorization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a statement issued on Friday by the commission\u2019s spokesman, Ikechukwu Ani, entitled, \u2018PSC promotes 175 senior police officers, steps down 112 others, the commission maintaned that IGP submits Presidential approval creating new zonal commands and departments.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Also promoted were 167 Superintendents of Police to Chief Superintendent, three Deputy Superintendents of Police to Superintendent, two Assistant Superintendents of Police to Deputy Superintendent and four Inspectors to Assistant Superintendent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The commission also confirmed the acting appointments of 60 senior officers, including three Commissioners of Police and four Deputy Commissioners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Charge de\u2019 Affairs, Dr. Elias-Fatile, disclosed this in a statement made available to Diplomatic Correspondents in Abuja.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elias-Fatile stated: \u201cDespite current challenges, we still have good news and reasons to celebrate. After the successes of the events in 2019, we were recording steady improvements in trade and economic relations between both countries prior to the outbreak of Covid-19. The indicators include the increase in the number of Japanese companies in Nigeria from 32 in 2017 to 43 today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs soon as the situation begins to normalise, we shall take steps to pursue Nigerian-Japan relations with vigour and resolute determination, through robust engagements in economic and trade activities. We shall continue to bolster the networks of trade and economic activities between relevant actors and stakeholders from both countries. We shall initiate, encourage and support new ideas to expand the scope of trade and economic activities between both countries.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elias-Fatile said the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC) acknowledged that presently, Japan is No 5 foreign investor in Nigeria, and also among the top 10 investors in services in Nigeria; among the top 10 investors in solid minerals, the No 5 investor in oil refining and No 5 investor in real estate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Similarly, he stressed that Japan is among Nigeria\u2019s top 20 import partners and Nigeria\u2019s top 20 export partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He noted that another indicator was the increase in the volume of trade and economic activities between both countries. Recent statistics issued by competent government agencies from both countries attest to this positive trajectory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elias-Fatile revealed that since April 2019, there had been significant increase in the applications for business and tourism visas to Nigeria, especially after the maiden edition of the seminar for Japanese companies and captains of industry, the business networking session for Japanese businessmen and their Nigerian counterparts on the sidelines of the 7th Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD VII) in Yokohama, as well as other trade-related activities organised by the Embassy last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to him, \u201cAlthough we have not been able to build substantially on the gains we garnered in 2019, the Embassy is undeterred. We believe that Nigeria and Japan will overcome Covid-19 and come out of this challenging period stronger. Therefore, we look forward with great optimism to actualise the initiatives we have in the pipeline and consolidate on the achievements we recorded in 2019\/20.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said both countries had commenced preparations for the 9th Session of Nigeria-Japan Special Partnership Forum (NJSPF), scheduled for June in Tokyo, but was postponed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Charge de\u2019 Affairs explained that the NJSPF is a framework for regular consultations on matters of mutual interest between the two countries, adding that the forum was upgraded to the level of a bi-national cooperation at the 6th session held on 22nd and 23rd August, 2013, in Abuja.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elias-Fatile stressed that the Japanese companies are engaged in different sectors of the economy, including power generation, transmission and distribution, agriculture, machinery, automobile, manufacturing, engineering, electronics, infrastructure, food and seasoning, medical and healthcare, among others, adding that some of them manufacture products locally in their own plants in Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The creation of new zonal commands by the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu may have pitched him against the Police Service Commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The commission has refused to approve the promotion of 112 senior police officers until the issue of creation of zonal Commands are resolved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Consequently, the commission is asking Adamu, to provide the Presidential approval on the creation of new commands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a statement issued on Friday by the commission\u2019s spokesman, Ikechukwu Ani, entitled, \u2018PSC promotes 175 senior police officers, steps down 112 others, the commission maintaned that IGP submits Presidential approval creating new zonal commands and departments.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Also promoted were 167 Superintendents of Police to Chief Superintendent, three Deputy Superintendents of Police to Superintendent, two Assistant Superintendents of Police to Deputy Superintendent and four Inspectors to Assistant Superintendent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The commission also confirmed the acting appointments of 60 senior officers, including three Commissioners of Police and four Deputy Commissioners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elias-Fatile revealed that since April 2019, there had been significant increase in the applications for business and tourism visas to Nigeria, especially after the maiden edition of the seminar for Japanese companies and captains of industry, the business networking session for Japanese businessmen and their Nigerian counterparts on the sidelines of the 7th Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD VII) in Yokohama, as well as other trade-related activities organised by the Embassy last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to him, \u201cAlthough we have not been able to build substantially on the gains we garnered in 2019, the Embassy is undeterred. We believe that Nigeria and Japan will overcome Covid-19 and come out of this challenging period stronger. Therefore, we look forward with great optimism to actualise the initiatives we have in the pipeline and consolidate on the achievements we recorded in 2019\/20.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said both countries had commenced preparations for the 9th Session of Nigeria-Japan Special Partnership Forum (NJSPF), scheduled for June in Tokyo, but was postponed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Charge de\u2019 Affairs explained that the NJSPF is a framework for regular consultations on matters of mutual interest between the two countries, adding that the forum was upgraded to the level of a bi-national cooperation at the 6th session held on 22nd and 23rd August, 2013, in Abuja.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elias-Fatile stressed that the Japanese companies are engaged in different sectors of the economy, including power generation, transmission and distribution, agriculture, machinery, automobile, manufacturing, engineering, electronics, infrastructure, food and seasoning, medical and healthcare, among others, adding that some of them manufacture products locally in their own plants in Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The creation of new zonal commands by the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu may have pitched him against the Police Service Commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Embassy of Nigeria in Japan has said there is steady improvements in trade and economic relations between Nigeria and Japan prior to the outbreak of Covid-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Consequently, the number of Japanese companies in Nigeria has increased steadily in the last three years from 32 in 2017 to 43 in 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Charge de\u2019 Affairs, Dr. Elias-Fatile, disclosed this in a statement made available to Diplomatic Correspondents in Abuja.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elias-Fatile stated: \u201cDespite current challenges, we still have good news and reasons to celebrate. After the successes of the events in 2019, we were recording steady improvements in trade and economic relations between both countries prior to the outbreak of Covid-19. The indicators include the increase in the number of Japanese companies in Nigeria from 32 in 2017 to 43 today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs soon as the situation begins to normalise, we shall take steps to pursue Nigerian-Japan relations with vigour and resolute determination, through robust engagements in economic and trade activities. We shall continue to bolster the networks of trade and economic activities between relevant actors and stakeholders from both countries. We shall initiate, encourage and support new ideas to expand the scope of trade and economic activities between both countries.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elias-Fatile said the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC) acknowledged that presently, Japan is No 5 foreign investor in Nigeria, and also among the top 10 investors in services in Nigeria; among the top 10 investors in solid minerals, the No 5 investor in oil refining and No 5 investor in real estate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAs soon as the situation begins to normalise, we shall take steps to pursue Nigerian-Japan relations with vigour and resolute determination, through robust engagements in economic and trade activities. We shall continue to bolster the networks of trade and economic activities between relevant actors and stakeholders from both countries. We shall initiate, encourage and support new ideas to expand the scope of trade and economic activities between both countries.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elias-Fatile said the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC) acknowledged that presently, Japan is No 5 foreign investor in Nigeria, and also among the top 10 investors in services in Nigeria; among the top 10 investors in solid minerals, the No 5 investor in oil refining and No 5 investor in real estate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Similarly, he stressed that Japan is among Nigeria\u2019s top 20 import partners and Nigeria\u2019s top 20 export partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He noted that another indicator was the increase in the volume of trade and economic activities between both countries. Recent statistics issued by competent government agencies from both countries attest to this positive trajectory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elias-Fatile revealed that since April 2019, there had been significant increase in the applications for business and tourism visas to Nigeria, especially after the maiden edition of the seminar for Japanese companies and captains of industry, the business networking session for Japanese businessmen and their Nigerian counterparts on the sidelines of the 7th Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD VII) in Yokohama, as well as other trade-related activities organised by the Embassy last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to him, \u201cAlthough we have not been able to build substantially on the gains we garnered in 2019, the Embassy is undeterred. We believe that Nigeria and Japan will overcome Covid-19 and come out of this challenging period stronger. Therefore, we look forward with great optimism to actualise the initiatives we have in the pipeline and consolidate on the achievements we recorded in 2019\/20.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said both countries had commenced preparations for the 9th Session of Nigeria-Japan Special Partnership Forum (NJSPF), scheduled for June in Tokyo, but was postponed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Charge de\u2019 Affairs explained that the NJSPF is a framework for regular consultations on matters of mutual interest between the two countries, adding that the forum was upgraded to the level of a bi-national cooperation at the 6th session held on 22nd and 23rd August, 2013, in Abuja.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elias-Fatile stressed that the Japanese companies are engaged in different sectors of the economy, including power generation, transmission and distribution, agriculture, machinery, automobile, manufacturing, engineering, electronics, infrastructure, food and seasoning, medical and healthcare, among others, adding that some of them manufacture products locally in their own plants in Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf teachers have to lead in this COVID-19 period, we really need to show that we are professionals.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs a teacher, you should know more than the people you are leading. We need to have quality education and promote long term learning. Teachers need to be provided with more opportunities for regular training,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Teachers\u2019 Day: COVID-19 has place greater burdens on teachers, says NUT","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"teachers-day-covid-19-has-place-greater-burdens-on-teachers-says-nut","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2020-10-05 13:20:52","post_modified_gmt":"2020-10-05 13:20:52","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/newsspecng.com\/?p=327","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":325,"post_author":"12","post_date":"2020-10-05 10:10:57","post_date_gmt":"2020-10-05 10:10:57","post_content":"\n

The Embassy of Nigeria in Japan has said there is steady improvements in trade and economic relations between Nigeria and Japan prior to the outbreak of Covid-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Consequently, the number of Japanese companies in Nigeria has increased steadily in the last three years from 32 in 2017 to 43 in 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Charge de\u2019 Affairs, Dr. Elias-Fatile, disclosed this in a statement made available to Diplomatic Correspondents in Abuja.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elias-Fatile stated: \u201cDespite current challenges, we still have good news and reasons to celebrate. After the successes of the events in 2019, we were recording steady improvements in trade and economic relations between both countries prior to the outbreak of Covid-19. The indicators include the increase in the number of Japanese companies in Nigeria from 32 in 2017 to 43 today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs soon as the situation begins to normalise, we shall take steps to pursue Nigerian-Japan relations with vigour and resolute determination, through robust engagements in economic and trade activities. We shall continue to bolster the networks of trade and economic activities between relevant actors and stakeholders from both countries. We shall initiate, encourage and support new ideas to expand the scope of trade and economic activities between both countries.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elias-Fatile said the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC) acknowledged that presently, Japan is No 5 foreign investor in Nigeria, and also among the top 10 investors in services in Nigeria; among the top 10 investors in solid minerals, the No 5 investor in oil refining and No 5 investor in real estate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Similarly, he stressed that Japan is among Nigeria\u2019s top 20 import partners and Nigeria\u2019s top 20 export partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He noted that another indicator was the increase in the volume of trade and economic activities between both countries. Recent statistics issued by competent government agencies from both countries attest to this positive trajectory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elias-Fatile revealed that since April 2019, there had been significant increase in the applications for business and tourism visas to Nigeria, especially after the maiden edition of the seminar for Japanese companies and captains of industry, the business networking session for Japanese businessmen and their Nigerian counterparts on the sidelines of the 7th Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD VII) in Yokohama, as well as other trade-related activities organised by the Embassy last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to him, \u201cAlthough we have not been able to build substantially on the gains we garnered in 2019, the Embassy is undeterred. We believe that Nigeria and Japan will overcome Covid-19 and come out of this challenging period stronger. Therefore, we look forward with great optimism to actualise the initiatives we have in the pipeline and consolidate on the achievements we recorded in 2019\/20.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said both countries had commenced preparations for the 9th Session of Nigeria-Japan Special Partnership Forum (NJSPF), scheduled for June in Tokyo, but was postponed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Charge de\u2019 Affairs explained that the NJSPF is a framework for regular consultations on matters of mutual interest between the two countries, adding that the forum was upgraded to the level of a bi-national cooperation at the 6th session held on 22nd and 23rd August, 2013, in Abuja.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Elias-Fatile stressed that the Japanese companies are engaged in different sectors of the economy, including power generation, transmission and distribution, agriculture, machinery, automobile, manufacturing, engineering, electronics, infrastructure, food and seasoning, medical and healthcare, among others, adding that some of them manufacture products locally in their own plants in Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The creation of new zonal commands by the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Adamu may have pitched him against the Police Service Commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The commission has refused to approve the promotion of 112 senior police officers until the issue of creation of zonal Commands are resolved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Consequently, the commission is asking Adamu, to provide the Presidential approval on the creation of new commands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Though the commission promoted Assistant Inspector -General of Police, Sanusi Lemu to Deputy Inspector General of Police, to replace retired DIG Abdulmajid Ali, representing the North Central.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It also approved the promotion of Commissioner of Police, Mustapha Dandaura, former CP Anambra and Rivers States, to the substantive rank of AIG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The IG had in May announced the establishment of five zonal commands, including Ondo\/Ekiti command with headquarters at Akure, Ondo State; Enugu\/Anambra\/Ebonyi Command with headquarters in Ukpo-Dunukofia in Anambra State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Others are Bayelsa\/Rivers command with headquarters in Yenogoa,Bayelsa State;
Katsina,\/Kaduna command with headquarters in Katsina; Yobe\/Borno command with headquarters in Maiduguri, Borno State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Force Intelligence Bureau was also excised from the FCID to become a full-fledged department to be headed by a DIG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But rising from its 9th Plenary meeting in Abuja on Monday and Tuesday, presided over by the PSC Chairman, Musiliu Smith, the commission said the affected officers who were drawn from the new commands would not be promoted until the IGP provided the presidential authorization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a statement issued on Friday by the commission\u2019s spokesman, Ikechukwu Ani, entitled, \u2018PSC promotes 175 senior police officers, steps down 112 others, the commission maintaned that IGP submits Presidential approval creating new zonal commands and departments.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Also promoted were 167 Superintendents of Police to Chief Superintendent, three Deputy Superintendents of Police to Superintendent, two Assistant Superintendents of Police to Deputy Superintendent and four Inspectors to Assistant Superintendent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The commission also confirmed the acting appointments of 60 senior officers, including three Commissioners of Police and four Deputy Commissioners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The beneficiaries are CP, Kwara State, Egbetokun Adeolu; CP, Lagos State, Odumosu Olusegun, and CP Works at the Force headquarters, Shehu Shuaibu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Others are DCPs Nwonyi Emeka, Ibrahim Maikaba; Ahmed Musa and former Force Public Relations Officer and currently DCP, CID, Airport Command, Lagos, Jimoh Moshood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The statement added, \u201cThe commission stood down the promotions of 112 senior police officers for failure of the Inspector-General of Police to comply with the directive of the commission to attach the Presidential approval for the creation of additional police zonal commands and departments from where the vacancies for the recommended officers were harvested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe commission stood down the promotion of 13 CPs, eight DCPs and 91 Chief Superintendents of Police.\u201d<\/p>\n","post_title":"Creation of new zonal commands pitches Commission against IG of Police","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"creation-of-new-zonal-commands-pitches-commission-against-ig-of-police","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2020-10-02 18:54:49","post_modified_gmt":"2020-10-02 18:54:49","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/newsspecng.com\/?p=254","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"prev":true,"total_page":39},"paged":1,"column_class":"jeg_col_2o3","class":"epic_block_3"};
