President Jonathan signs N4.425tn 2015 budget

It appears President Goodluck Jonathan may have signed the 2015 Appropriation Bill weeks ago, however, it is only just becoming public knowledge.

The Senate had passed the 2015 budget on April 28, following the passage of the same bill by the House of Representatives on April 23.

According to a report by Punch Newspapers, the reason for the budget-signing being shrouded in secrecy could not be ascertained.

A Presidency source told the newspaper that the President signed the budget about two weeks ago immediately after the document passed by the National Assembly was transmitted to him.

The source also claimed ignorance as to why the President chose to sign the document without the knowledge of the public.

Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati, reportedly confirmed that Jonathan had signed the budget.

However, he also could not explain why the document was quietly signed by the President.

In passing the budget, the Senate slightly reduced the N2.607,601, 000,300 proposed by the Executive to N2.607,132,491,708 as recurrent expenditure and also scaled down the capital expenditure from N642,848,999,699 estimated in the proposal to N556,995,465,449.

Buhari slams military for hiring foreign mecenaries to fight Boko Haram

President-elect Buhari has berated the military for enlisting foreign mercenaries to fight Boko Haram.
According to Vanguard, he spoke in Kaduna while hosting the National Executive Council of the Arewa Consultative Forum, ACF.

The military has never been so incapacitated like now. It is a shame that the Military cannot secure 14 out of the 774 local governments in the country.
What is more worrisome is the fact that Nigeria’s military has to rely on South African mercenaries before it could gain recent success in the war against Boko Haram. This situation is shameful and unacceptable.
My administration will concentrate on three major areas on assumption of office, that is insecurity, the economy/unemployment and corruption. We will ensure we nip insecurity in the bud.”

Woman dies while having sex with a driver in Lagos

The police in Lagos State have arrested a driver, identified simply as Utebor, for the death of a lady in his apartment. Investigations had showed that the suspect took the lady home and as they were having sex, the victim died.

A neighbour was said to have alerted policemen from the Ipaja division, who arrested the suspect and deposited the victim’s corpse in a mortuary. The suspect picked up the victim around Baruwa Estate in the Ipaja area of the state, on Friday.

Nobody knew the victim’s name and address, just as no member of her family had shown up.

A source told PUNCH Metro:

“The man was driving his cab that fateful day when the lady flagged him down.She asked him for money, but he told her he didn’t have any money on him. He then asked her to enter the car and follow him home. 
He took her to his apartment in Baruwa Estate and it was that night that the girl died. Investigation showed that it was while he was making love to her that she died. It was the following morning that somebody alerted the police.”

However, the suspect, in his confession told the police that he had picked the victim from the bus stop and taken her home when she suddenly died.

Another source explained that the suspect had continued to plead his innocence, saying he only helped the deceased and did not have sex with her. He said:

The man did not deny taking the girl home. But he explained that while she was in his room, she started shouting that she had a headache, and before he knew what was going on, she fell down and died.
“He said he was confused and didn’t know what to do. But obviously, that may not be all the truth.”

When PUNCH visited the area, residents were not willing to talk about the incident, as they claimed that they were not aware.

It was, however, learnt that the matter had been transferred to the Department of Criminal Investigation, Yaba, where the suspect was undergoing interrogation.

The Police Public Relations Officer, Kenneth Nwosu, confirmed the incident.

He said, “We have arrested the man. As I speak with you, the matter is under investigation at the DCI, to know what actually killed the lady. The deceased’s name and address are unknown.”

Woman recounts how Boko Haram prepares kidnapped girls to become suicide bombers

One of the women freed by soldiers from Boko Haram’s captivity, Meriam, 36, has narrated how the sect fighters trained and prepared girls and women for suicide missions. Meriam, who had just arrived at one of the internally displaced persons’ camp in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital from Gwoza, revealed this to the New York times. 

She said
The Boko Haram would recite the prayer for the dead,“Then they would put on the hijab,” covering the suicide belt.“They said, ‘God will forgive us,’ ” she said. “Then, they would enter the vehicles, and they would send the women away.”

Meriam said she had seen a few of the Chibok village girls at the hospital in Gwoza, and said that the Boko Haram appeared to give them a special status.

Hamsatu, 25, a young woman in a black-and-purple head scarf, looking down at the ground said she was four months pregnant, that the father was a Boko Haram member and that she had been forced to have sex with other militants who took control of her town.
“They married me,“They chose the ones they wanted to marry,If anybody shouts, they said they would shoot them.”

Yahauwa, 30, used her green head scarf to wipe away tears as she clutched a plastic bag full of medicine. She had just tested positive for H.I.V.
“Is it from the people who forced me to have affairs with them?” she asked a relief worker, tears streaming down her face.

Later, she explained that she and many other women had been “locked in one big room.”
“When they came, they would select the one they wanted to sleep with, “They said, ‘If you do not marry us, we will slaughter you.’

I Hope They Will Hear!! Read Advice Buhari’s Aide Gave To Those Trekking

Mohammed Shehu, an aide to President-elect Buhari, has advised youths to pray instead of trekking for the incoming leader’s administration. Mr. Shehu gave this advice during an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), in Abuja today Monday May 18th.

According to him, the incoming administration acknowledges the excitement of youths over Mr. Buhari’s election but would prefer that they channel their energies towards praying than embarking on, sometimes dangerous, journeys. What he said after the cut...

"It’s kind of overwhelming. Last week, I told youths to stay where they are, stop trekking, and pray for the incoming administration instead. We have a lot of challenges; light, unemployment, insecurity, and so on. So it is more profitable for them to stay where they are and pray instead of taking the dangerous risk of walking all the way to Abuja,’’ Mr. Shehu said.

On the allegation that the trekkers were ignored, Mr. Shehu said:

"that is not true. Even outsiders have been bringing gifts and food for them out of goodwill. It is untrue that they have been ignored or starved and this is not the first batch but you know the problem with this kind of situation is that when others hear, they keep coming."
