Following a competitive selection process, the 30 high-achieving, low-income students received financial aid from the U.S. Consulate General that covered expenses involved in the college application process such as payment for standardized tests, application fees, and visa fees in addition to air travel to the United States. 

Ezeunala Ekene Franklin

One of the beneficiaries is a 17-year-old boy Ekene Ezeunala who scored the highest score at the 2019 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME).

The lucky US-bound students are selected for six undergraduates, three masters and twenty-one doctoral academic programs including Neuroscience, Biomedical Engineering, Bioinformatics, Computer Science and Engineering for the 2021/2022 academic session
According to a statement by Temitayo Famutimi, Information Specialist, Public Affairs Section of the United States Consular General in Victoria Island Lagos, on Thursday, the scholarship programs cover expenses for standardized tests, application fee and visa fees.
The statement reads, “Speaking on Thursday in Lagos during a reception in honor of the U.S. bound students, Consul General Claire Pierangelo urged the scholars to make the most of their opportunity to get a top-notch education while gaining the first-hand experience of American life and culture.
“I congratulate each one of you on your tremendous success. Your success is evidence of your leadership, academic performance, and the great potential young Nigerians hold for the future of this country.
“This is a very important step in your life. I strongly encourage you to maximize this opportunity. This is not just about your education as you have proven yourselves to be academically outstanding students. 
“I am also referring to your chance to broaden your horizons and embrace the diversity of people around you and learn, not just about America, but also about other cultures,” Pierangelo told the departing students.

Police Brutality, Unprofessional Conduct In Kano Is Getting Worse, Group Says, Calls Out Ganduje

A group, War Against Injustice, has alleged that men of the Kano State Police Command subject civilians to inhumane treatment and deny them their fundamental human rights.
 
The group, in a statement signed by its Executive Director, Umar Ibrahim Umar, said police officers in the state engage in many professional misconducts defying police standards, regulations, and international best practices.

According to the group, the impunity at which the officers carry out extortion and other illegal acts could be attributed to the failure of the state government to constitute a Judicial Panel to investigate cases of police brutality in Kano State.
 
War Against Justice said it had written to the Governor, Abdullahi Ganduje as regards this but got no response. Similarly, the group noted that a complaint letter sent to the State Commissioner of Police over the unconstitutional acts of its officers was never acknowledged.
 
The group called on the government to investigate the allegations and ensure appropriate prosecution of guilty offenders to serve as a deterrence to others.
 
The statement read, “We are the executive members of War Against Injustice a Non-governmental organization based in Kano State. The main objective is to create awareness against social, political, violation of fundamental rights and other forms of injustices in society.
 
“We have been watching with the greatest dismay and concerned that some of the Police Officers with the Kano State Command have been engaging themselves in many professional misconducts which lead to allegation upon allegations of violations and breaches fundamental rights of the innocent people in Kano State.
 
“Some state governments in Nigeria (such as Lagos State) had inaugurated a Judicial Panel of Inquiry to hear and listen to the grievances of the citizens on police brutality and yet to no avail in Kano State.
 
”On December 11, 2020, we sent our application to Kano State Governor titled ‘Request to Constitute a Judicial Panel of Inquiry into the police brutality in Kano State but there is no any action or response from the government of Kano State.
 
“Several police officers have been allegedly indicted of extra-judicial killings, inhuman and degrading treatment to the inhabitants of Kano State.
 
“These attitudes are unbecoming and are against the police standards, regulations, and international best practices on police operations.
 
“In recent time, we sent a complaint to Kano State Commissioner of Police over the unconstitutional acts of harassment and violations of fundamental rights of innocent youths in the state yet neither we saw nor received any response.
 
“The good people of Kano State are law-abiding citizens, violations of these inviolable rights are contrary to the right given by law both nationally and internationally. The police are duty-bound by the provision of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended) to protect the lives and properties of the people of Kano State.”

APC Senators Reject Electronic Transmission Of Election Results

Senators affiliated with the ruling All Progressives Congress, on Thursday, voted against the electronic transmission of results.
 
The original 52(3) as contained in the report under consideration read: “The Commission may transmit results of elections by electronic means where and when practicable.”

But an APC senator from Niger North, Sabi Abdullahi, amended the clause to read, “INEC may consider electronic collation of results, provided the national network coverage is adjudged to be adequate and secured by the Nigerian Communications Commission and approved by the National Assembly.”
    
Senate President, Ibrahim Lawan, ruled in favor of the amendment when he conducted a voice vote.

Commotion As Senators Disagree Over Electronic Transmission Of Election Results

0 Comments

6 Hours Ago

There was a disagreement and the Minority Leader, Enyinnaya Abaribe, called for a division that would require individual voting on the floor.
 
Lawan sustained Abaribe’s point of order and called for a division.
 
At the end of the poll, 88 senators voted, while 28 were not available to vote.
 
The outcome of the election showed that 52 APC senators, including the chairman of the Senate INEC committee, Kabiru Gaya, voted against the panel’s report, which gives the electoral umpire the sole power to determine the practicability of electronic transmission of results.
 
The Peoples Democratic Party members on the floor all voted in favor of electronic transmission of results by INEC without interference from either the NCC or the National Assembly.
 
The APC members, while casting their votes against the amendment, attributed their decision to the claim of the NCC that only 43 percent of the country has network coverage.
 
According to what they voted for, NCC and the National Assembly will take over the work of INEC by transmitting the results against the backdrop that INEC cannot carry out the electronic transmission of results unless the NCC and the National Assembly approved.

Legislating On Admission Age Amid Harvest Of Deaths By Olabisi Deji-Folutile

Olabisi Deji-Folutile

Violence against Nigerian students is growing at an alarming rate. Yet, there seems to be no hope of a quick end in sight.  Aside the usual reports of mass kidnappings of students from their schools, an anomaly that has become a key part of thenarrative in our educational system, students are now being attacked off campuses.   This week alone, there are reports of at least three tragic deaths from such attacks. 
On Monday, a trigger-happy soldier reportedly shot dead Gray Ekpezu, a final year student of medicine and surgery, University of Calabar, Cross River State.
Neighbours claimed the student was shot for no reason in the evening of Friday, July 9, in front of his compound at Edibe Edibe in Calabar South of the state.
When irate residents took to the streets to protest the unfortunate incident, one of the battalion commanders in the area, reportedly advised them not to take laws into their hands, with a promise that the culprit would be brought to book. Since then, nothing has been heard. 

Olabisi Deji-Folutile

There is another report of a student identified as Jennifer Ugadu who was also allegedly murdered by her soldier boyfriend, Jay Matol.  
Jennifer was a model and 200- Level student of Niger Delta University (NDU), in Bayelsa State. She was reportedly found dead in her apartment with multiple stab injuries and bullet wounds on Sunday, July 11, days after she was killed.
It was reported that Jay Matol had earlier accused Jennifer of being unfaithful. According to reports, he first raped her before shooting and stabbing her to death. If the message alleged to have been written by Matol on Jennifer’s department’s WhatsApp group is anything to go by, he gave himself up as he was alleged to have announced on the group that he killed her and planned to kill himself too.
Also, on Tuesday, a Bio-Chemistry student of Delta State University (DELSU), Abraka Stephen Odje, was killed on his way to school while two others, Divine Omajuwa and Husseina Hamza of Geology and Pharmacology Departments respectively, were reportedly abducted. Fortunately, the abducted students were released on Wednesday as confirmed by the state police command. 
In another report, the President of the Students’ Union Government of the Federal College of Education, Pankshin, Plateau State, Mr Zuma Francis Fwanshiwa, confirmed the kidnap of a final year student of the college.  
The kidnapped student identified as Felix Gele is in 400-Level and a final year student in the Department of Psychology. The kidnappers according to the union leader are asking for N5mransom. 
These reports represent only the tip of the iceberg, since many more cases might have gone unreported. As at July 7, 2021, the UN estimated that at least 950 students had been abducted from Nigerian schools in seven months with nearly 500 children kidnapped in the past six weeks alone.   
Surprisingly, despite this grim picture of insecurity in Nigerian schools, our lawmakers are more concerned aboutstopping the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board from allowing any child below 18 years to sit for the Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination. For them, age has a lot to do with learning ability, particularly in higher institutions. 
I’m probably missing something here because I still can’tunderstand why the age a child takes UTME is such a national issue at a time like this. It isn’t as if our higher institutions have complained that 16-year-olds are finding it difficult tocope with learning. On the contrary, we have seen many 20-year-olds emerging best graduating students. What has the time a candidate sits for UTME got to do with life-threatening challenges confronting the generality of Nigerian studentsnow?  I guess thousands of students across the country would rather want to know what government is doing to guaranteetheir safety in and out of school. 
This is what I think the lawmakers should be talking about. By now, the committee on education at the National Assembly should be championing the campaign for the declaration of a state of emergency on Nigerian schools. They should bethinking of how our schools could become safer for both students and workers. 
Honestly, when confronted with leaders that would rather ignore leprosy and concentrate on curing ringworm, one may not help but question the intellectual capacity of such people. Of all the problems confronting the education sector in Nigeria, should legislating on admission age be the prioritynow? Are the lawmakers suggesting that a child should sit at home and remain idle for two years to clock 18 before going to a higher institution? Funny!
This dearth of thinking is also manifesting in Akwa Ibom State where the government has taken a decision to ban pupils older than 12 years from admission into secondary schools in the state. The state governor, Udom Emmanuel, reportedlysaid the move was aimed at curbing cultism in the state’s schools. 
Akwa Ibom reminds me of El-Salvador’s draconian abortion law where any woman who suffers a miscarriage is immediately viewed with suspicion. Recently, a woman, Sara Rogel García, 29, was recently let out of prison after spending eight years in prison simply because she had an accident that resulted in the death of her unborn child. 
Rogel slipped and fell while washing clothes eight months into her pregnancy. The impact caused her to lose consciousness, and her baby was stillborn. By the time she awoke in the hospital, she was handcuffed to her bed. Four days later, while still recovering from her injuries, not to mention the emotional toll of having lost a baby she had been looking forward to having, she was sent to jail.
Relating this to Akwa Ibom story, the state has wrongly concluded that any child above 12 years that is not yet in secondary school must be a cultist. There can only be a few exceptions and that is why the government thinks granting admission to such exceptions after a written undertaking by their parents is good enough. 
 
To the state, the solution to halting massive recruitment of students into cultism is to prevent those that can recruit others from going to school. What now happens to these children when they are left outside school?  Let’s even assume that all kids above 12 years in the state are cultists, does that mean they are doomed for life? 
The state was acting as if it was doing the children a favour by allowing them to go to school. It has not yet dawned on these politicians that going to school is the inalienable right of every Nigerian child and nobody including the governor of any state has the power to deny a child the right to access education for whatever reason. If a child is found to break the law or endanger the life of others, the state is empowered to use the instrument of law to deal with the situation. Attempting to stop a child from going to school because you think the child can spread cultism, to me, is a lazy approach to solving a problem. 
Beyond this, what Akwa Ibom State has proved to the world is that apart from lacking the political will to implement Nigerian laws, it does not even know the provisions of its ownlaws. 
Take for instance the UBEC Act (2004) which has been domesticated by every state in Nigeria including Akwa Ibom, the law guarantees unfettered access to nine (9) years of formal basic education for every Nigerian of school age.  As a matter of fact, every government in Nigeria is expected toprovide free, compulsory and universal basic education for every child of primary and junior secondary school age while all parents and guardians must ensure that their children or wards attend and complete their primary school education and junior secondary school education.
This is the law. It does not stipulate any condition that may make a state to refuse to provide free and compulsory education. Unfortunately, while any parent who contravenes Section 2(2) of the Act commits an offence and liable on first conviction, to be reprimanded; on second conviction, to a fine of ?2,000.00 or imprisonment for a term of 1 month or both; and on subsequent conviction, to a fine of ?5,000.00 or imprisonment for a term of two months or to both, there is no punishment for any state that fails to provide compulsory basic education to their children. That is why a state like Akwa Ibom can publicly say it won’t allow some kids to be in school.  This lacuna in the UBEC Act should be reviewed as soon as possible. 
In the mean time, the Akwa Ibom State government should be reminded that it is not doing any child any favour by allowing them to go to school. Education will ultimately sustain the state; it will liberate the mind of the people and make them very useful members of the society.
Our leaders’ preference for a quick fix as opposed to a well-thought out solutions to real problems, is also reflecting in the way the National Youth Service Corps is handling the problem of insecurity of corps members across the country. 
I learnt the agency is no longer giving prospective corps members the chance to choose their preferred state.   It has also made it compulsory for enrolees to provide the name of the person to contact in case of death at the point of registering for the scheme.  I guess this is NYSC’s own way of subtly passing across the message that any corps member could die in the course of service. After all, insecurity in Nigeria has reached the roof top and there is no sign that it is coming down soon.   
The bottom line is that a nation is as good as the quality of its leaders. The earlier we start putting deep thinkers at the helm of our affairs, the faster our journey to our El-Dorado would be.

REVEALED: How Pastor Enenche Laid Off Department Of State Services Agent To Absolve Church Of Detained #BuhariMustGo Protesters

The Senior Pastor of the Dunamis International Gospel Centre (Glory Dome), Abuja, Paul Enenche, has secretly laid off the Department of State Services lead agent of the church as part of a plot to absolve the church of the continued detention of the five #BuhariMustGo protesters. 
SaharaReporters learnt on Thursday that Enenche let go of the church’s DSS lead agent to cover up the church’s involvement all along in the arrest and detention of the activists. 

The activists, including a blind church saxophonist, have now spent about two weeks in the DSS detention as families also worry about their welfare and medical care. 
The detained activists are; Ben Manasseh, Emmanuel Larry, Samuel Gabriel, Anene Victor Udoka, and Henry Nwodo. 
Last Sunday, the family members of the protesters had stormed the Glory Dome in Abuja to protest against the continued detention of their wards, but they were also roundly harassed and molested by the security agents who had mobilised to the premises in large numbers.

SaharaReporters learnt on Thursday that Pastor Enenche had taken a step further to cover up the church’s role in the arrest and detention of the protesters. 
“Pastor Enenche in an attempt to cover up the involvement of the church in the matter has asked the lead DSS agent in the church, who the church used in handing them over to the DSS, to leave the church for now. 
“Enenche also admitted to the church elders that approached him on the matter that he initially consented to handing them over to the DSS to show to the Buhari regime that he was opposed to the #BuhariMustGo campaign and to punish Sowore for negative reporting against his church,” a top source said. 
SaharaReporters had on July 9 reported that the five protesters dragged the church and the DSS to court over their illegal arrest, detention and violation of their human rights.
