Home News_Update News_Update NIGERIAN YAHOO BOYS SHOULD LEND US MONEY, NIGERIA IS COLLAPSING” — LAI MOHAMMED PLEADS By Newsfenzy - December 18, 2019
By MINISTER of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, on Tuesday, said the Federal Government is unable to implement the capital votes of the 2017 budget because of lack of funds.
The declaration by Mohammed was coming some 24 hours after the Minister of Finance, Mrs Kemi Adeosun, told foreign visitors that the Federal Government would soon release N750 billion to fund capital projects in the 2017 budget.
Speaking during the 2018 budget defence session, at the Senate, on Tuesday, Mohammed said “it is not that government is deliberately withholding releases to fund the 2017 budget or starving us. It is because we do not have enough money to do that.
“When budgets are made, they are made based on certain assumptions and if you are not able to get enough to meet your assumptions, there will be poor release.
“At least, there is an improvement in different sectors like the Nigeria Customs Service, while the price of crude oil is getting better. There is also more peace in the Niger Delta. So we can produce more,” he said.
According to him, once the visa regime was liberalised, tourists would be encouraged to visit African countries.
The minister said there was an improvement in visa regime in the country, adding that the current “visa on arrival programme” recently introduced by the Federal Government was working well.
“Anybody who has been observing what is happening in the creative industry, including culture, film industry, and fashion, will see that there is remarkable transformation and that is because the government has provided the enabling environment.
“The creative industry is on a tripod, the government, the private sector and the practitioners and what government has done is to give the support that the industry needs to grow.
“For instance, sometime this year, the Federal Government included the film industry in the list of industries that will enjoy pioneer status.
“What this means is that if you invest in this industry with a certain amount of money, you will be entitled to a tax holiday for three years at the initial stage and another two years.
“In addition, dividends from your businesses will be exempted from taxation. This is one of the incentives government has given,” he said.

Fading Glory of Government College, Keffi Go to the profile of JOHN SHIKLAM JOHN SHIKLAM May 20, 2018
Article was written by JOHN SHIKLAM and published in THISDAY of November 13, 2013
It was a home coming for alumni for the alumni of Government College, Keffi when they arrived their Alma mata for the Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the Keffi Old Boys Association (KOBA).
The occasion evokes mixed feelings for many of them who were just coming back to the college after many years. It was a feeling of sadness and joy. Joy for reuniting with friends and classmates and sadness over the decay in the school.
A lot of things had gone bad. Dilapidated structures, lack of basic facilities as a result of the near collapse in the education sector occasion by the neglect of public schools by government.
Government College, Keffi was the first secondary school in the defunct northern region, producing many of the northern elites and top professionals in various fields of human endeavour.
Many of the old boys couldn’t believe the deplorable state of things in the school. They arrived in various types of exotic cars to the large school compound with so much excitement.
The meeting evoked those sweet memories of their days in the college as teenagers. A part of the last stanza of the college song says it all; “.The spirit of Keffi forever shall live, in the hearts of her students, be they far or near, the memories of Keffi shall ever be dear…”
But the grim realities of things in the college turned the occasion which was supposed to be a happy moment into a session of lamentations as they embarked on an inspection of the hostels, classrooms, library laboratories and sporting facilities which were rated the best in those days.
“This is not the college that we know. This is really very sad and disappointing” some of them shouted. A lot of things have gone wrong with the school in the past 25 years of since its existence 64 years ago, principally as a result of the transfer of the ownership of the college from one state to the other and the neglect of the education sector by government. The Patient Hall, one of the oldest buildings in the school was almost filled to the brim as they sang the college song with so nostalgia. But the reality was that the school was in dire need of salvation. The roll call of those who attended the occasion includes,
the President General of KOBA Major. Gen. Emmanuel Abisoye (rtd), Vice Chairman of PZ Cussion, Mr. Tunde Oyelola, Alhaji Inwa Jibrin, former Registrar of the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Prof. Bello Ahmed Salim, Justice James Ogebe (JSC rtd), Chief Judge of Kogi state, Justice Nasir Ajana, Justice Ahmed Gusau, Ambassador Umaru Azores Suleiman, Dr. Christopher Eta, the Group Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Mr. Andrew Yakubu, Mr. Cephas Akpan and Alhaji Mohammed Ibrahim. Others include, Engr. Kayode Adeyemi, Arc. Bashir Usman, Mr. Silvanus Namang, Dr. Yahaya Mohammed, Dr. Mathew Ashikeni, Barrister Ibrahim Usman, Alhaji Mohammed, Prof. Abraham Bala and Alhaji Mohammed Bello Lawan, Mr. Isaac Shuaibu, secretary to the Kebbi state government, Alhaji Bala Musa Sakaba and Mr. Philip Dabup among others. The neglect of public schools and the crisis in the education sector has taken its toll on the school and the cherished values which made the school stand out as the best in the north had since faded many years ago.
Some of them who spoke in an interview with THISDAY were so emotional about the decay and apparent collapse of basic infrastructure in the college. Hon. Oze Jashua who graduated from the college in 1980 said he broke down in tears during the inspection tour of the hostels and classrooms, adding however that the meeting afforded him the opportunity to reunite with his class mates. “The meeting has provided me the opportunity to see our elders, mates and juniors to share ideas as well as celebrate memories of the past and strengthen our unity. “But we are sad because the whole infrastructures are dilapidated. In fact I shaded tears when we were going round the school on inspection, especially when I saw my House, Niger House. It was burnt down; Kaduna House was looking like a forest because students no longer live in these hostels again. “Surprisingly there are no more beds. Those double bunks we used to sleep on are no more there, the students sleep on the floor. It is a very pathetic situation”. “I want every member of KOBA to contribute so that we can put these structures back. I share the idea that the school should be handed over to KOBA because by so doing, the school would be managed properly and restored to its former glory” Joshua said. Also commenting Alhaji Mohammed Zakari Jamil, the Acting Registrar of Nasarawa state university said he was emotional of the decay in the college.
“I am very emotional about the condition of the school because it is not what it used to be again during our time. There is a lot of infrastructural decay. Everything has deterioted, it is very sad and painful. “Infrastructure has broken down; the students are not well kept. Everything must be done to revive this institution, it is very, and very important that we the old boys do so something and that is what we are trying to do by coming together to proffer solutions to the problems. “I hope that every year we will be able to meet to add value to ensure that the past glory of the college is not only reviving, but is improved for the future. “The meeting has afforded us the opportunity to relive our school days, that were the most impressionable age of our lives and it leaves a lot of memories, so we are excited to have met each other again” he said. Also in his comment Mr. Abraham Bala and said the meeting was a great opportunity to come back to the school once more. “We have reunited with childhood friends and classmates. I have not seen some of them since 1975 when I graduated. I have gone round the school and I feel very sad about the state of things” he added. For Engr. Kayode Adeyemi graduated from the college in the 1960s, it was a wonderful experience to meet with classmates that one have not see for so many years to share old the old memories. He however lamented the situation of things in the college, saying it was a very unfortunate that things have degenerated to a very sad level. “I have gone the school and what I saw is very pitiful, having been in the college in the 1960s when everything was working, it is a shame to see the dilapidation and decay in the school” he said Another old student, Mr. Isaac Shuaibu said the occasion reminded him of those days when he was a young man in the school. “This gathering takes us back to our youthful days. You are seeing us with grey hairs but you will notice that we are behaving like the teenagers that we were when we were in the college.
“The meeting has brought about memories of the past. It raises our hope for the future. You see those who are older than you, are still getting on, so you have no right to be tired because those who were in the school before you are still very active. I graduated from the school in 1966 after doing my Higher School Certificate (HSC)” he said. Several projects initiated by some of the old boys as part of efforts to improve the condition of the college were commissioned by the President General of KOBA, Gen. Abisoye. The projects include the renovation of the school clinic, the construction of a borehole and the renovation of a block of classrooms among others. Speaking during the meeting, the KOBA President said the only way to salvage school and restoring is past glory is for the association to take over the management of the college. Abisoye disclosed at that the association plans to visit the Nasarawa state governor, Alhaji Umaru Tanko Almakura to request the state government to hand over to the old boys to manage. He said a limited liability company would be registered by KOBA shares would be offered to facilitate the running of the school if the Nasarawa states government hands over the college to the association

“I Am Not Getting Any Younger, I Need A Wife” – Aliko Dangote"
Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, has revealed that he is ready to take a wife now. The 61 year old billionaire business mogul, made the revelation in a recent interview with Financial times.
According to the businessman who has been divorced twice, says his busy schedule has prevented him from having any romance in his life. He said it wouldn’t make sense to be involved with someone when you have no time being with that person.
“I’m not getting younger. Sixty years is no joke. But it doesn’t make sense to go out and get somebody if you don’t have the time. Right now, things are really, really very busy, because we have the refinery, we have the petrochemicals, we have the fertiliser, we have the gas pipeline.”
