Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala The Committee on Finance of the House of Representatives has sent to Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, the Minister of Finance & Coordinating Minister for the Economy, 50 questions they want her to show up and answer. In a letter signed by its chairman, Dr. Abdulmumin Jibrin inviting the Minister to make a comprehensive presentation on the state of the economy, the committee cited concerns that what the Minister consistently tries to make Nigerians believe as the true situation is at sharp variance with the reality on the ground. It also said the invitation has become imperative because the Committee has concluded that what senior officers of the executive branch say to legislators in private regarding the sad situation of our economy and the so called dwindling revenue base is different from positions they express publicly. Admitting that the Minister may lack the time to answer all its questions in one sitting, as well as to avoid any element of surprise,...

NOT too long ago, Nigerians were reminded that matters that involved the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, were family affairs. The party extended its “family affairs” to the condoning of the arsons in many parts of the country, in the course of its members vying for political power. PDP stood above the law, which its members never expected to defend them, especially in contests among themselves. Another round of feud has broken out in the family. It may assume the hue of letter writing, but any family – whether political or biological – that communicates to itself in the manner we have seen in the past few weeks, is in trouble. PDP is really in trouble, but it is not doomed as many predict. Its trouble is rooted in the indiscipline within the party. More importantly, more party members have assumed statures that tempt them to act with impunity that was reserved for a select few. Nigerians may be seeing a contest over privileges, particularly the right to dictate what happens, rather ...

Thirty-five women were, yesterday, disqualified by the Kano State Hisbah Board from participating in the mass wedding organised and sponsored by the state government. Those disqualified included 19 divorcees said to have tested  positive to HIV and 16 others said to be pregnant. Altogether, at least 1, 111 divorcees and widows from the 44 local government areas in the state were joined in matrimony at the City Central Mosque during a brief but colorful ceremony. It is another round of mass wedding conducted by the Chief Imam of Kano Central Mosque, Professor Muhammad Zaharadeen. The event was attended by the state Deputy Governor, Dr Umar Ganduje, along with top Islamic clerics across the state. However, each of the grooms signed an undertaking not to divorce their spouses without recourse to the board, as contravention will attract a N50,000 fine. Addressing the couples shortly after the ceremony, Commandant, Kano Hisbah Board, Sheik Daurawa explained that the measur...
