ABUJA – Deputy National Publicity Secretary of All Progressives Congress, APC, Comrade Timi Frank has described as reckless, baseless and unwarranted the comment by the party’s national chairman, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun that finding replacement for Lai Mohammed was difficult.
•Frank: Nobody should blame Saraki for what has happened
Oyegun who returned from a ten-day working leave on Monday had told Journalists at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja that arrangements had been concluded to nominate Mohammed’s replacement.
Mohammed now Nigeria’s Minister of Information was the national publicity secretary of the party.
Oyegun “I think arrangements have been completed to hold the necessary congresses to nominate a spokesperson. I think that should be done very shortly. In fact the issue is getting somebody that can be as close as possible to the outstanding performance of the present minister of information, Lai Mohammed,’’ he said.
But reacting to the development, Frank said that he disagreed with the national chairman, saying that the need for election shouldn’t have arisen when there was a deputy who would step into the shoes of Mohammed.
He stated that the statement was malicious and was meant to discredit him and the party, stressing that there were many party men and women who can fill the vacant positions in the party.
He called on Oyegun to withdraw the statement and desist from making further comments.
“I disagree with chief Odigie-Oyegun on his comment with regards to the replacement of Minister Lai Mohammed. The statement made by him is reckless, baseless and unwarranted.
“I am the Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the party and as such can act in the absence of the national publicity secretary. I am also qualified to act as a substantive publicity secretary of the party.
“The statement is malicious, insulting and meant to discredit my person as well as the party by saying it is difficult to fill the office from the present caliber of party men and women we have.
“As a good party man, Chief Oyegun aught to have informed the public about the next convention date to fill all vacancies but not to use the medium to discredit my person and the party.
“I like to use this medium to call on him to retrieve the statement and desist from making further malicious statements in the future”, he said.

Dear All,
Sanwo Tap to Pay Smart Payment Solution
INTRODUCTION
Sanwo is an innovative payment solution platform that captures unbanked transactions in Nigeria and Africa at large. Presently, Sanwo is one of the best proponent of Near Field Communication (NFC) offline payment solution in Nigeria. Being a contact-less (Tap to Pay) offline payment solution, Sanwo is a cashless solution platform tailored for daily unbanked transactions. Thus, from paying transport fare, to paying for fast food, to paying faculty and department fee, or paying for course registration and manuals; Sanwo seamlessly fits into any sector of the economy. Sanwo Tap 2 Pay Solution becomes necessary because of the gridlock experienced by individuals wanting to pay for goods and services and the merchants who serve them on a daily basis. There are also the challenges posed by irregular Internet enabled transactions via Point of Sale (POS) devices and the familiar risk attached to cash transactions in our society. A seamless and efficient Internet enabled payment platform is almost impossible in developing countries considering the erratic state of electricity power supply, insufficient Internet services. Sanwo’s offline functionality makes it adaptable for individual and merchants to use for daily means of payment in Nigeria and Africa at large.
SANWO IN LAUTECH AND OGBOMOSO TOWN
LAUTECH in her strive to becoming the leading University in Information and Technology (ICT) in Nigeria has migrated to NFC based student Identification card. These smart Identification cards will make it possible for different automation in the University to be achieved. Just this single card can be used by students for the following further purposes: Examinations card, Library cards, Health Center cards, access to restricted facilities. The LAUTECH Student Identification cards are compatible with the Sanwo Tap 2 Pay Solution, all that is needed is to activate the card from a Sanwo Agent in the University premises.
With your Student Identification card, you can use your card at Amazing Grace Restaurants, Alata Milk and Honey, Radomak Pharmacy Store, Duramics Restaurant, Ajarat Supermarket, Sister Titi Photocopy Center (at Adenike) to mention a few Merchants that have deployed Sanwo Tap 2 Pay Solution as a means of payment for goods and services. The LAUTECH Tricycle Shuttle, Ace Supermarket, Satisfier Restaurant and Konzuma Snacks will soon join.
Sanwo Tap 2 Pay Solution is recommended by LAUTECH ICT as a functional and convenient means for payment within the campus. Faculties, departments or organizations are advised to deploy Sanwo Tap 2 Pay Solution as a means of payment for any fee required to be made by students. This will encourage cashless policy in the University.

ABUJA – The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), yesterday, warned the general public, particularly the prospective corps members, to disregard activities of some hackers requesting them to make payment for posting or to change their posting.
A statement signed by the NYSC Director of Press and Public Relation, Mrs Abosede Aderibigbe in Abuja said the scheme had not started posting to state of deployment and would not request any prospective corps members to pay for posting, discribing it as the work of cyber criminals.
The statement reads: “The attention of the NYSC Management has been drawn to the activities of some hackers sending messages requesting prospective Corps members to go and check their states of deployment online.
“They refer their victims to a link and ask them to enter their login details as well as choices made during their online registration.
“Management wishes to inform prospective Corps members that posting to states of deployment has not commenced; but will be done at the appropriate time in line with our laid down processes.
“The so-called “link” being sent to prospective Corps members is the handiwork of cyber criminals and should, therefore, be disregarded.
“Prospective Corps members are particularly warned not to make payments for posting or change of posting as that is clearly the motive of the cyber criminals.
“Management will inform prospective Corps members as soon as their posting letters are ready for printing online or delivery to their various institutions of graduation.”
ABUJA- President Mohammadu Buhari on Thursday in Abuja stated that no part of Nigerian territory was under the occupation of the Boko haram insurgents.
This came as European countries have announced a donation of $50 million to Nigeria and the countries within the lake Chad basin to fight terrorism.
President Buhari said that the Nigerian military had succeeded in decimating the terrorists who had hitherto occupied some local government areas in the north eastern part of the country.
He made the submission while welcoming the president of Germany, Joachim Gauck at the president villa, Abuja.
Speaking during a joint briefing with his guest, president Buhari regretted that his German counterpart was “welcome” with the news of attacks on Dikwa, Borno State by the insurgents.
He however stated that the terrorists have resorted to attacking soft targets having been pursued out of their base by the Nigerian army.
The president said that the challenge facing the government now was to relocate and rehabilitate the victims of insurgency.
He said: “It is a pity Boko Haram welcomed you by explosions Maidugiri that took so many lives, but I have attempted to explain in so many fora that Boko haram is not what it used to be. While they are firmly holding 14 out of 774 local governments when we came in, they are not holding any local government now.
“What they have resorted to is using improvised explosive devices to cause maximum casualties on soft targets as they did yesterday, doing what they are capable of doing now. But for them to organize conventional attacks on military, police installations and take hold towns, I think they are not able to do that. They send groups to go and kill vulnerable targets.
“Having said that, our efforts have to be redoubled to make sure that the people in internally displaced camps have been rehabilitated especially the children. More than 60% of the 2million people in IDPs are women and children and more than 60% of them are children and more than 60% of the children are orphaned.
“Some of them don’t know where they are from, they don’t know their parents, this is a pathetic situation the leadership of this government is facing because the least we should is to quickly resettle those children if possible try and identify their neighborhoods, refer the schools health centers and maybe part of the village so that they can get out of the trauma that they are in”.
President Buhari who thanked Germany for its assistance to Nigeria in the anti-terrorism war also commended the country for the quality of jobs its construction companies were doing in Nigeria.
“I am pleased with the response from G7, the United States to Europe, Training teams have been sent to our institutions. Help has been sent but what we do is to try get our own committee under Gen T. Y. Danjuma which has made some efforts where he himself and Dangote has made some special contributions to start doing something in the field and we ask those who are coming to help, like NGOs from within or outside the country to go and meet them so that should be shown what damage have been done to the infrastructure and what plans we have.
“We also thank Germany for the help they extended to make sure that the last election was a success. The party I know is in laison with the parties in Germany which is basically under humanitarian concern that a country of at least 170 million people with very volatile political development should find peace as this is their main concern.
“We thank them for the help they are giving us in terms of what happened during the Ebola and polio scourge which they continue to do which is coupled now by the help in the IDP camps and North-East generally. We are very grateful for the aid Germany continues to give us through the NGOs and directly to the Federal Government.
“We also like to mention to the president and their companies that their quality of jobs are appreciated by Nigerians. We know it is at a price, but the important thing is if you get our jobs very well done, then it saves you so much in terms of maintenance
“Anybody driving through Abuja, can see the quality of infrastructure including this one. The first time I was the head of state, I was in a barrack somewhere but when I came back as President I saw this beautiful castle very well built and very well maintained. This is to say i feel the German company is doing a good job and it is appreciated”, president Buhari said.
He also appealed to the president to assist Nigeria in getting a permanent seat ant the United Nations security council.
“Outside bilateral, in the United Nations, Nigeria an African country feels that we are qualified by our number, by our size, by our position in Africa to have a seat in the United Nations. We hope that Germany will support us”, he said.
Also speaking, the visiting president, Joachim Gauck, thanked president Buhari for the reception accorded him.
He said that Germany would assist Nigeria in the insurgency fight and announced a donation of $50 million for the Multinational Joint Task Force, MNJTF.
“We indeed had a very fruitful exchange today, permit me to express my condolences in the face of the attack on the IDP yesterday
“As regards my visit, I am grateful for being invited and been given the opportunity to know the country and and its people and to talk to you about where we can further intensify and deepen our bilateral relationships. Nigeria is indeed a very hospitable country with impressive people and the spirit of hope of a country being on the move, I was very impressed by that.
“I had the opportunity to visit Lagos and now am delighted to be in Abuja. It is very important for me to let you know that we believe and we see in you, one of our most important partners here in the region and in your country. When it comes to developing the region at large, your country plays a major role and at the same time you are facing major challenges.
“We are hoping for a peaceful change and that makes it easier to engage in cooperations with you .
“You personally have made it clear that it’s is in a determined way that you intend to fight the Boko Haram and its methods that deeply violate the principles of humanity.
We intend to support you because we believe that it is a very good approach that you have chosen and that is something we would make available financial support and and this that approach consists joining forces with Neighbouring countries to fight Boko haram together and you have already taken steps in that direction as members of the African Union. We as Europe will support that initiative with $50 million
“In our exchange today we made it clear that development is not possible without governance and without dev governance you cannot fight. I had the opportunity to pay a visit to IDP camp. Germany will continue to provide humanitarian support especially to the vulnerable women and children”, he said.
Illegal funds
On the looted funds, president Gauck said that “I am afraid the president of Germany is not involved in the ….Allow me to state how we dealt with that issue”.

Obasanjo, prostrates before Ooni, backs his
peace initiatives
Former president Olusegun Obasanjo has thrown
his weight behind the move by the Ooni of Ife,
Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi to unify the yoruba race
during his reign. It would be recalled that Ooni
Ogunwusi had been visiting Yoruba monarchs as
a way of ensuring unity. Among those visited
were the Aalafin of Oyo and Awujale of Ijebuland
among others.
Obasanjo spoke yesterday during a visitation to
the Ooni’s palace where he was received by
prominent traditional rulers in Ile-Ife. In a
dramatic move, Obasanjo who was accompanied
by other prominent personalities dressed in his
Yoruba regalia, prostrated for the Ooni as a sign
of respect. While some of those present during
the visit expressed surprise at chief Obasanjo’s
posturing, others applauded and hailed the
former president.
The former president explained that the unity
move by the Ooni was important for the progress
of Yorubaland. He urged the Ooni not to relent in
his move to ensure unity, adding that Ife
remained the source of Yorubaland. He said, “I
commend the role of Ooni in ensuring peace in
Yorubaland. Continue what you are doing,
especially your unity course. I am happy with the
move taken so far.
“It is only a sign of honour for the Ooni to visit
anyone. That does not stop Ile-Ife from its
position in the history of Yorubaland.” Obasanjo
subsequently prayed for the progress of Ife and
Yorubaland. He also apologised for not being
present at the Ooni’s coronation.
On his part, the Ooni expressed appreciation for
the former president’s visit. Among those present
during the visitation were Dr. Femi Okunnu; Femi
Majekodunmi; Chief Oyewole Fasaweye, Ayo
Balogun and a host of others.

Sergio Aguero named Player of
the Month for January
The Manchester City striker beat the likes of Dele
Alli and Roberto Firmino to the award after
scoring five goals in four games for Manuel
Pellegrini's men
Sergio Aguero has been named Premier League
Player of the Month for January.
The Manchester City striker scored five goals in
four games to scoop the award for the first time
this season.
Manuel Pellegrini's side were undefeated last
month, with Aguero's brace against West Ham
United earning a 2-2 draw and another double
against Crystal Palace helping City to a 3-0
victory.
The Argentina international also found the back of
the net in the come-from-behind 2-1 win at
Watford, and recorded an assist in the
aforementioned clash with Palace at the Etihad
Stadium.
Tottenham Hotspur's Dele Alli, Southampton's
Virgin van Dijk, Liverpool's Roberto Firmino,
Sunderland's Jermain Defoe and Leicester's
Kasper Schmeichel were all in the running, but
Aguero's contributions to City's title bid saw him
win the prize.
The 27-year-old will now have his eye on
boosting his goal tally further when Manchester
City take on Leicester City in a top-of-the-table
encounter on Saturday.
Southampton's Ronald Koeman, meanwhile,
landed the manager of the month award after his
side won three of their four games in January,
including their second successive win at Old
Trafford after Charlie Austin marked his debut
with the winning goal.
