<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The symbolic significance of Nigeria's 2015 election is enormous. But Nigerians renewed hope and their new government are about to be thoroughly tested.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When incumbent Goodluck Jonathan conceded to his opponent Muhammadu Buhari after the March 2015 presidential elections, an unprecedented and unexpected outcome in Nigeria, national pride was seemingly restored in moments. The election outcome sent a message to other African states: incumbency is not omnipotent. And Africa's biggest economy will remain its biggest democracy too, something some had doubted in the tense and polarized lead-up to election day. But the challenges ahead for the new president are as daunting as his inauguration is historic.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Fuel first</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This would-be economic powerhouse and Africa's biggest crude oil producer is running low on fuel. While Nigeria exported around 2.08 million barrels of oil a day in the first quarter of 2015, its three refineries operate at 20 per cent capacity at most. So Nigeria imports its petrol to run cars and diesel to power private generators for homes and businesses. National grid power generation is negligible relative to demand. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The traders that import refined products are paid by government in cash or crude oil via the byzantine Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). Most foreign suppliers had long stopped supplying on credit as they are owed $1.5 billion in arrears dating back to 2011. Local traders and wholesalers claim to be owed ₦200 billion in subsidies and are withholding supplies pending some form of settlement.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
While some of the locally based wholesalers' claims are legitimate, finance ministry officials argue that others have been dubiously inflated.  But these wholesalers have the power to hold the government to ransom. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the week preceding the inauguration, businesses closed early, vehicles stayed off the streets, flights were cancelled and mobile phone services were under threat. The country was grinding to a halt.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Urgent action is needed yet the reality is that President Buhari, swept to power on an anti-corruption platform as the opposition candidate for the broom-wielding All Progressives Congress (APC), will need to investigate exactly how much is owed and the conduct of the transactions if he is to make good not only of his promise on anti-corruption but also to promote efficiency in governance.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In a country that remains dependent on crude exports for fiscal revenue and product imports to function, the cabal-controlled opaque deals that keep the economy running are perhaps at the heart of the corruption that makes people’s lives unnecessarily harsh every day in Nigeria.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But given the parlous state of the economy after crude oil prices halved in six months in 2014, the depreciation of the national currency, the erosion of foreign reserves to under $30 billion, (perhaps four months of external payments), and the political and popular sensitivities around fuel importation and the fuel subsidy, the new government may not have chosen the fuel traders and how to reform the NNPC as the first challenge to tackle. But the traders have forced the issue.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>A full in-tray</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Buhari government has challenges to deal with in their first 100 days that in many other countries would simply be overwhelming. In addition to the fuel shortage, there is an Islamist insurgency, a struggling economy, corruption-corroded institutions, dire development needs, complicated reforms to the power and petroleum sectors, and the question of how to gain the confidence of the 12.9 million Nigerians who did not vote for the president. The oil producing South South and South East states, where memories of Buhari's former military regime are bitter and suspicions of the APC run deep, voted overwhelmingly for the People's Democratic Party. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
With ambitions including economic diversification, institutional reform and improving welfare to millions of Nigeria's poorest, President Buhari and the APC will see their efforts stymied in 2015 by empty state coffers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Yet it is not the availability of money but the management of it that may effect change in Nigeria. Years of high oil prices and strong GDP growth have not translated into the development, job creation and poverty reduction that they should have. Instead Nigeria is one of the fastest-growing markets for luxury aircraft and champagne, while it ranks 152 out of 187 countries in the Human Development Index.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Boko Haram is high on the president’s target list. Here too he is managing expectations, developed around the president’s long military career and experience in Borno State – the epicentre of the Boko Haram crisis. But of all the challenges it is against the violent Islamist insurgency that most tangible progress is likely to be seen in 2015.   A restructuring of the senior officer corps, likely better cooperation with the region due to stronger leadership and greater morale in the armed forces, will help the new government build on gains already made.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>A new country</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
While Buhari may have a to-do list on anti-corruption, security, the economy and institution-building as long as he had as military ruler in the 1980s, after 16 years of democracy Nigeria is a different country and he hence must lead it differently.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Nigeria’s economic diversification is well under way; this activity is simply not formal or fully supported by government bureaucracy or services. It has growing and effective civil society organizations - which along with the electoral commission carry much of the credit for ensuring a credible election - and a free and lively press.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The power Buhari will now wield as an elected leader is that of popular pressure and democratic institutions - not the use of force. He will have to navigate the party politics of the still-nascent alliance that comprises the APC and transformed minor regional opposition parties into the new national political force. And while he will have to manage the competing interests and personal ambitions of those in his party, he will benefit from the experience and talent pool he has to choose from.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Crucially his vice president Yemi Osinbajo, one of the APC manifesto architects and a well-respected former attorney general and justice commissioner of Lagos state, will be an important complement to a president with great ambitions for governance reform, but who will have to delegate and respect the rules of patronage politics in a time of austerity. The two are reported to have a good relationship. If this can be maintained over the next four years, and if the president can balance ambition, austerity and anticorruption with political realities, they may be able to achieve a great deal more than the economy, perception and Nigeria’s complex array of politics and thorny challenges may suggest.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Security was beefed up in and around Nigeria's capital, Abuja, on Thursday, as final preparations were made for the inauguration of Muhammadu Buhari as president.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The 72-year-old, who defeated incumbent Goodluck Jonathan in elections two months ago, will be sworn in at a ceremony from 9 am (0800 GMT) on Friday before world leaders and other dignitaries.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Among those who have confirmed attendance are South Africa's President Jacob Zuma, US Secretary of State John Kerry and French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Soldiers were out in force on the streets, including at main entry points into the city, while there was a visible police presence at key locations such as hotels and government buildings.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Roads have been closed around the Eagle Square inauguration venue, where dozens of international flags have been hoisted alongside the Nigerian green, white and green tricolour.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Nigeria's federal police chief Solomon Arase said the measures were imposed "to ward off possible plans by insurgents to carry out widespread violence and coordinated attacks".</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Boko Haram Islamists waging a bloody, six-year insurgency in Nigeria's northeast, have hit Abuja before, including twice in the space of a month last April and May, killing nearly 100 people.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On those occasions, the bombings were at a bus station on the outskirts of the city but in June last year, 21 were killed when a blast rocked a shopping mall near the city centre.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In 2010, twin car bombings claimed by militants from the oil-producing southern Delta region killed 10 people near ceremonies in Abuja to mark 50 years of independence.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Arase urged members of the public to remain vigilant and cooperate with the security services "to stamp out crimes, including (the) war against terror... to ensure (a) hitch-free inauguration".</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tourism minister Edem Duke, who is involved with the preparations, told AFP: "All the issues that will make for a successful inauguration have been validated.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Security has been enhanced. The ceremonial elements have been firmly put in place. The registrar of the Supreme Court is working on the elements of the swearing in."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Buhari, who headed a military regime in the 1980s, takes office just days after a deal was reached to end a crippling fuel shortage that brought the country to a near standstill.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There were still long queues for petrol and diesel at filling stations, as distributors tried to clear the backlog.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>President Goodluck Jonathan on Thursday formally presented his hand over notes to the President-elect, Muhammadu Buhari.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The presentation was done inside the Council Chamber of the Presidential Villa, Abuja, shortly after Jonathan conducted Buhari round the seat of power.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Vice President Namadi Sambo had also similarly conducted the Vice President-elect, Yemi Osinbajo, round his wing of the villa.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Jonathan presented an executive summary of his hand over notes and a copy of the report of the National Conference to Buhari in the presence of All Progressives Congress (APC) chiefs who accompanied him to the event.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In his remarks, Jonathan said his administration had done its best for the country.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Buhari said he would not make a bold statement until after studying the handover notes.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He however commended Jonathan for conceding defeat in the March 28 Presidential election.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He said the outgoing President could have made things difficult if he wanted to do so.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Do you say Maiduguri is hot? No! No!! And, no!!! Next time you come in from the sun and find yourself a little red, spare a thought for the people of India, where it so hot that the road is melting.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
More than 1,150 people have reportedly died in the heat wave sweeping across the southern part of the country.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Andhra Pradesh suffered the most: 884 people have died as a result of the searing heat since 18 May.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But it's not much cooler in the north of the country. In New Delhi, the temperature is more than 45<span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%;">⁰</span>C - so high that the asphalt road has started to melt.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Local meteorologists said the heat was a result of north-westerly dry and hot winds from Rajasthan State, which shares a border with Pakistan.</div>

I Married You For Visa, Nigerian Tells Lover After Wedding

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOCZggNz74OfzU-SsXGA-TR6aXTFXDwWnBqjpJ1Nzc2yHkxksjlnOEKc0O9F_HK4-gmCsH05Hp1Kiu6qvD9AHzrI18LM5aGWMSxFY0PBXl3J6aQa36zKQCvwFpld6AEaOiW8aAXxHoSQIH/s1600/Ben+and+Deana.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOCZggNz74OfzU-SsXGA-TR6aXTFXDwWnBqjpJ1Nzc2yHkxksjlnOEKc0O9F_HK4-gmCsH05Hp1Kiu6qvD9AHzrI18LM5aGWMSxFY0PBXl3J6aQa36zKQCvwFpld6AEaOiW8aAXxHoSQIH/s1600/Ben+and+Deana.jpeg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>When Deana Charles walked down the aisle with her Nigerian groom, Ben Mowah, she could not wait to spend the rest of her life with the man she loved. But just half-an-hour after the pair exchanged their vows, she discovered Ben had been texting another woman.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And Deana was left further humiliated when he admitted he had only married her for a visa.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Deana, 23, says: "My whole world came crashing down when I found out my marriage was a fake. I loved Ben with all my heart. We'd made loads of plans for the future and he seemed desperate to start a family."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>TheSunUK</i> reports that sales assistant Deana, from Tiverton, Devon, met Ben, 25, on a dating site in 2010. She was instantly attracted to his looks and was hooked after he struck up a flirty conversation with her.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"I wasn't serious about finding love, I'd only signed up for a bit of a laugh. As soon as I saw Ben's picture, though, I was smitten. He had gorgeous brown eyes and a great body - just my type.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"We started chatting and he explained he'd come to the UK from Nigeria to study for a business degree. I couldn't imagine being so far away from my family and friends and I told him he was really brave."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ben was persistent online and was keen to meet up as soon as possible. Deana was nervous at first but, three months after they started talking, she agreed to travel to London to meet him for a day of sightseeing. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
She continued: "It was the perfect first date. Ben took me to see Big Ben and we went to the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich. As soon as we shared our first kiss I could feel myself falling for him.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"He asked me to stay for a few days and I said yes. It felt like I'd known him for ages."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Days turned into weeks and, after a fleeting visit home to pick up some belongings, Deana agreed to move in with Ben in Catford, South East London.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"I was surprised when he asked me to move in with him so soon but I was also really excited. But my mum was really concerned that I was giving up everything for someone I'd only just met.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Some of my friends said the same. No one was completely sure of him. I just shrugged off their concerns because I was convinced he was the right man for me."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In August 2011, six months after they first met in person, Ben popped the question.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Ben asked me to marry him while we were having breakfast at home. It wasn't very romantic. He didn't even get down on one knee, but he did buy me an imitation diamond ring. I was shocked he wanted to marry me so soon but I was completely in love."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Though she'd dreamt of a big, romantic wedding, Ben was determined to wed as soon as possible. So Deana agreed to a register office wedding in January 2012, with a low-key reception at a local Chinese restaurant.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"My family were concerned but they all turned out and supported me. When I walked down the aisle Ben told me I looked stunning. And I meant every word of my vows."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After the ceremony, Deana urged Ben to call his family to tell them the good news.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"He was reluctant to get his phone out. He eventually agreed to call his mum but when I looked over his shoulder at the screen, a message flashed up from a girl. She'd texted Ben to tell him she loved and missed him. My legs turned to jelly as I remembered she was his ex-girlfriend in Nigeria.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"I was in pieces but Ben begged me for another chance. He said he'd only text her because of last-minute nerves. I didn't want to storm out of my wedding so, after lots of tears, I let it go."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Deana tried to start a happy married life, but the text message always weighed down on her conscience.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"I wanted to wait a few years before getting pregnant as I was still worried about the message. But Ben was determined to be a dad. I thought it was his way of showing he was serious. We tried for a baby but we struggled to conceive."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But 13 months into their marriage, Deana borrowed Ben's laptop and her worst fears were confirmed.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"My heart stopped when I saw he'd been sending messages to a girl on a social network site and she had sent him explicit pictures. Ben told her he loved her and wanted a baby with her.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Minutes later I received a message from the girl - she felt so guilty, she'd messaged me to come clean."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Devastated Deana confronted Ben.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"When he realised there was no way back, he told me he'd only married me for a visa. It explained why he'd been so keen to get me pregnant - the authorities would find it harder to deport him."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Disgusted Deana packed her bags, returned to Devon the next day and filed for divorce. After two years, Ben finally agreed to it. Deana says:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"I felt relieved. Looking back, I realise how naive I was. Ben was due to finish his degree when he proposed, which meant his student visa would expire. He had to get me up the aisle as soon as possible."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Deana, who has not spoken to Ben since their divorce and no longer knows where he lives, says:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"It took me a long time to trust another man but I have recently met someone and am trying to move on."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ben says: "My mate used to send me dirty pictures of girls he was seeing. I knew my wife would get jealous if she saw them on my phone so I got rid of them or sent them to my email. She must have checked my email that day and then found the pictures."</div>
<br />

Why I Won't Move Into The ₦15 Billion New Govt. House - Lalong

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Barrister Simon Bako Lalong is governor-elect of Plateau State. In this interview, Lalong now fondly called the 'miracle governor' speaks on his priorities for the people of Plateau State and other issues.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i>Daily Trust </i>asked him:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You have consistently said you will not occupy the newly constructed Government House in Little Rayfield, does that mean you will let the building go to waste despite the billions of naira spent on it?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And the <i>'miracle governor'</i> replied: </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The new government house is the property of Plateau State and it is also the property of Plateau people. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Secondly, the house is not completed so how do I start rushing to a place that has not been completed. Another thing is that the amount used in building that government house is very ridiculous and so we put it as a matter for consideration. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I cannot go into that house until those issues are settled by Plateau people. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Thirdly, the priority of the incoming government is how to settle the plight of the civil servants. Civil servants were wallowing in lack of payment of salaries and then all of a sudden I was told that an amount of close to ₦15billion was used to construct a new government house, we are not coming for luxury, we are coming to serve the people so first of all when you are serving you must be ready to make sacrifice not luxury of a new government house. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is not a priority to me, we will stay anywhere, and we will review the contract and make recommendations as to whether we will occupy the new government house or not. But I want to assure you that it will not be a waste, even if we don’t occupy it we will put it to use.</div>
