Why Nigeria went into recession - NBS

The Nation Bureau of Statistics (NBS) has pointed out that Nigeria’s economy went into recession in 2016 because relevant authorities largely ignored when it warned that the economy was heading in the wrong direction. Speaking at the 2017 African Statistics Day held in Abuja, yesterday, the Statistician General of the Federation, Dr. Yemi Kale, said the NBS was proactive in identifying the dysfunctional state of the economy but the warning sign data released by the NBS were ignored. “Prior to our entry into recession in the 3rd quarter of 2015, careful monitoring and application of the data would have shown that the economy was heading in the wrong track but this was largely ignored, and the result was a very difficult recession, which affected the lives of households and their businesses across the country,” Kale, who was represented by the Director, Field Services and Methodology Department of NBS, Mr. Babayo Samanja, said. Nigerian economy has returned to a gro...

Article: Low turn out of LG voters: A bad omen for true federalism?

The Local government is as important as the fede ral government if not more . This is the third tier of government that is given the responsibility of providing basic political/societal needs. It is supposed to ensure the security and well being of people at the local level. Its responsible for the provision of such amenities as rural roads, local market, pipe-borne water (na land mark achievement to some state governors), primary education as well as settlement dispute at the local level. Its judicial process at the customary no doubt is faster and more people-friendly than the federal and state judiciary. I am of the opinion that the local government is sacrosanct and irreplaceable, but the reason(s) it is considered irrelevant by most Nigerians is unfathomable. We seem to regard a local government council as a ceremonial gathering of friends of the Governor/King. We behold it as that entity that serves no pu...

Adesina-led AfDB plans 25m jobs for youths

The President, African Development Bank Group (AfDB), Dr. Akinwumi Adesina, has launched the Presidential Youth Advisory Group (PYAG), an initiative that will create 25 million jobs. PYAG, launched on the side-lines of the 6th EU-Africa Business Forum in Abidjan, would provide insights and innovative solutions for job creation for Africa’s youth as outlined in the Bank’s Jobs for Youth in Africa Strategy (JfYA). The jobs for Youth in Africa initiative aims to benefit 50 million youth over the next 10 years by equipping them with the right skills to get decent and meaningful jobs. “It is currently the largest effort going on for youth employment in Africa. “This is a huge opportunity for Africa. If we fix the youth unemployment challenge, Africa will gain 10-20% annual growth. “That means Africa’s GDP will grow by $500 billion per year for the next 30 years.’’ He said Africa’s per capita income would rise by 55 per cent every year to the year 2050. Adesina, who identi...

Multiple powerful explosions rock Maiduguri

Powerful multiple explosions rock Maiduguri on Tuesday night, a day after 12 persons were killed by suspected Boko Haram suicide bombers. At least six powerful explosions occurred between 10:45 and 11:00 PM. About four explosives were detonated simultaneously while two other powerful sounds were also heard some 15 minutes later. Unlike the previous explosions, the current blast has a wide-range sound effect, sending its powerful sounds to many parts of the metropolis, forcing roofs to shake. It is not clear where the blast occurred yet and efforts to get the details of the blasts were not successful as none of the official security spokespersons was available for comments. However, a security source told the News Agency of Nigeria that soldiers had fired an artillery at a convoy of suspected Boko Haram insurgents who were trying to attack the city which caused series of explosions.
