A group of stakeholders in the steel sector of the Nigerian economy has stated that the submissions of some of the people that appeared before the House Committee that recently probed the concession of Ajaokuta Steel Company Limited (ASCL) and the National Iron Ore Mining Company (NIOMCO) were mostly based on semantics and emotional sentiments rather than reality and facts on ground.

Nigeria can learn a lot from Seychelles — Lancelot Imaseun
Where is the most interesting place you have travelled to?
My most memorable travel experience was to Seychelles Island in East Africa. When I got there, I was reminded of Bayelsa State. I was fascinated by how they have turned their island into a fountain of wealth, while our country, with all our natural resources, has fallenbehind. I think the island has a population of less than a hundred thousand people and they have been able to do wonders despite their small population. The hills there reminded me of the hills in Enugu State but the irony is that while Seychelles has done wonders with its hills, ours in Enugu are almost like a curse because most times, we hear of vehicles falling off the hills.
I have nothing to prove to anyone, Rudeboy boasts
He admitted that he had changed everybody around him especially in his management team and the friends he relates with but he decided to stay with his brother, Jude.
During the interview with Dotun of Cool FM, the singer noted that his sound would not change much and if anyone has a problem with that, then they should be armed with $10m or keep quiet.
The singer said, “I thought of releasing an album this year, I changed my mind because if I do, most people would think it is from the 2017 group. I do not want to do that; instead I would rather continue the Rudeboy movement. Why would I release an album and when people listen to it, they begin to have different thoughts?

How I’ve been coping without a kid for 10 years –Emeka Okoro
However, in an encounter with Sunday Scoop, he insisted that he is not bothered that his marriage has not yet been blessed with kids.
He said, “I have been married for ten years and we are praying to God for children. I am not worried about my situation. When you are in Christ, you will know that some situations are just temporary.”
On how he handles pressure from family members, he said, “I don’t succumb to family pressure. I am a man who controls things around me, including my family; nobody can tell me what to do. My wife is not disturbed as well because we know it is just a phase. The idea of taking another wife has never come to my mind too.”

Int’l Inquiries Into State Aided Killings In Nigeria As A Missing Point In Gen Theo Danjuma’s Call
The call made on Saturday, 24th March 2018 by a former
Army Chief and Defense Minister in Nigeria, Retired Lt Gen Theo Danjuma to all
Nigerians of non Muslim faith particularly members of Christian faith in
Northeast, North-central and Southern parts of the country to defend themselves
against the ongoing widespread massacres across the country by radical armed
Islamic groups such as Islamist Fulani and Boko Haram killers.
Gen Theo Danjuma
also joined other informed and courageous Nigerians to accuse the Armed Forces
of Nigeria and the country’s security establishments’ mangers of protecting the
attackers particularly the Jihadist Fulani Herdsmen and aiding their atrocious
conducts. We therefore see his call as not only grossly belated but also
incomplete without addition of urgent steps by the United Nation System to set
up an international commission of inquiry under the Chapter VII of the United
Nations’ Charter so as to unravel the remote and immediate causes and
perpetrators as well as profiteers of the killings.
