TERROR: Opposition Tackles PDP As Insurgents Kill Two, Burn Vehicles In Borno

Angered by the allegation by the ruling People’s Democratic Party, that ravaging terrorism attacks in parts of the North were sponsored by the opposition APC to stop President Jonathan’s transformation agenda, Governor Murtala Nyako of Adamawa State, yesterday, challenged the PDP to provide evidence of its claim or shut up forever.


Nyako, who is insisting that the President unjustly imposed emergency rule in his state for political expediency, warned the PDP to desist from making wild allegations against the opposition but to face the realities of its failure to address Nigeria’s rising challenges, including terrorism, which he described as a by-product of the ruling party’s 15-year incompetent leadership of Nigeria.

Nyako, who spoke to Saturday Vanguard through his Director of Press and Public Affairs, Mr. Ahmad Sajoh, accused the Presidency and the PDP of playing politics with the Boko Haram terrorists and using the attacks as an alibi for its failure to cater for the people in the affected areas of the north.

National Conference Delegates Get Paid N1.45 Million For One Week Sitting

492 delegates to the National Conference today got their first pay today. It was gathered that each of the delegates got paid N1.45 million Naira after sitting for a week. The payment was made directly into the bank accounts of delegates.


This is the first week of the National Conference. The delegates spent the week squabbling over sitting arrangements, which prayers were appropriate and other mundane issues. They are expected to meet for three months and get paid every two weeks, according to the sources.

The Nigerian government has made available N7 billion (Naira) for the conference. Each delegate is expected to be paid N4 million Naira per month, but it appears some of the funds will be applied to the secretariat.
Despite this huge amount, in a country where state governors are refusing to pay the minimum wage at N18,000 per month, the delegates are still asking for more money to pay their aide.
"N1.45 million Naira for a week's job is not bad at all," says columnist and satirist, Rudolf Okonkwo, "especially when most of the delegates were just sleeping during their few hours of sitting."
