Sudan to name first post-Bashir cabinet August 28,2019 Premier Abdalla Hamdok is set to name his key picks from a field put forward by the Forces for Freedom and Change (FFC) — a grouping born of a movement that initially took to the streets against Bashir’s 30-year rule and then forced the military rulers who deposed him to share power. “I received on Tuesday afternoon the nominees for ministers provided by the FFC,” Hamdok said, adding that it includes 49 nominees for 14 ministries. The planned announcement comes after a joint civilian-military sovereign council was sworn in last week to steer the country through a three-year transition period. On Saturday, Hamdok told a local TV channel that he would select technocrats based on their “competence”. “We are looking to create a homogeneous team to level up to these challenges,” he said. The cabinet is expected to be selected largely by Hamdok, with key exceptions being the interior and defence ministers, who will be chosen by t

Three killed in jihadist-hit Burkina region August 28,2019 Three people were killed in a village in northern Burkina Faso on Tuesday, in a hit-and-run raid bearing the hallmark of jihadist insurgents, officials said. “Four armed individuals on motorbikes attacked the village of Kourao, killing three civilians,” a security official said on Wednesday.

Neymar fulfils Netflix ‘dream’ as Barca say transfer deal ‘closer’ August 28,2019 The Brazil forward is anxious for a move back to Spain with both Barcelona and Real Madrid trying to seal a deal before the European transfer window closes next Monday. “We are continuing negotiations, we are closer to a deal,” Barca director Javier Bordas told reporters at Barcelona airport after returning from a meeting with PSG in the French capital.

Iceland cuts rates again in race to beat recession August 28,2019 The bank cut its benchmark seven-day deposit rate by 0.25 points to 3.5 percent. It had already slashed the rate in May, and then again in June. The bank expects Iceland’s economy to contract by 0.2 percent this year, less than forecast in the spring, it said. But at the same time the outlook for next year has worsened as the crucial tourism sector has been slow to recover from a slump. “The GDP growth outlook for 2020 has deteriorated,” the bank said, “as it now appears that it will take longer for tourism to recover after this year’s setbacks”. The bank now expects GDP to grow by 1.9 percent in 2020, compared to its previous 2.4 percent forecast. Slowing inflation and a stronger krona have increased the scope for monetary easing without much upward pressure on prices. Analysts at Capital Economics said they expect Iceland to cut rates at least once more this year, with a move likely as early as October. The

Group warns EU governments over IPOB’s alleged plan against Nigerian citizens August 28,2019 The Association of Nigerian Professionals in Europe (ANPE) has cautioned the European Union (EU) member-nations over threats by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) against Nigerians in Europe and other parts of the world.

The group, therefore, recommended that IPOB should be banned across Europe and its collaborators be brought to book. The statement said: “These concerned Nigerians urge the EU to begin treating anyone that hides under an umbrella to attack Nigerian citizens as criminals that should be dealt with by the rele

The silent consumer is gone: Welcome to marketing in the digital age August 28,2019 Even the way we consume arts and music has changed. There are now TV shows that allow for user interaction. On shows like Big Brother, audience participation influences the outcomes of the programming. A lot of people now watch the latest Nollywood flicks on YouTube channels, and some of the most popular comedians with massive followings, are online. Many musicians now release their albums online long before they are released in the stores. Even politics and governance is not left out. Many politicians and political parties now launch their campaigns via digital platforms like YouTube and social media platforms; and governments are increasingly going online to increase awareness of their initiatives. These are immense changes, with immense implications for businesses and brands. If they fail to adapt to the technological changes that are sweeping through, they will find themselves becoming obsolete a

Operators reiterate need for downstream sector deregulation August 28,2019 Operators alongside managing Director of Financial Derivatives Company Ltd, Bismarck Rewane and other operators, has called on the government to urgently deregulate the downstream sector to pave way for accelerated growth of the oil and gas sector. Rewane, an economist, said the current system is strangulating the sector, noting that deregulation would open up the market. He charged the Federal Government to emulate other countries who have deregulated their downstream sectors if it hopes to reposition the industry to truly serve as growth catalyst. Rewane said this during an interaction with journalists on the challenges facing local oil companies listed on the Nigeria Stock Exchange. According to him, the imposition of a price ceiling on petroleum products which affects the margins of the operators will not attract the volume of investments required to scale up their operations and explore the opportuni

Flying Eagles qualify for gold battle as Falconets prepare for Cameroon August 28,2019 Flying Eagles of Nigeria yesterday qualified for the football final of the on-going African Games following a penalty shoot out defeat of Mali in one of the semifinals.

Stray bullet kills father of four in Lagos August 27,2019 According to eyewitnesses, Daudu had gone to pack the chairs he rented to the Celestial Church of Christ, Oshodi Parish, when the policeman who escorted one of the dignitaries, an unnamed politician, started firing into the air to disperse some area boys that clustered round the dignitary.

I called my husband’s telephone number but the line didn’t go. “Almost immediately, I heard another person making calls in front of my shop. I heard the caller asking the person at the other end if it was that man that rented chairs. At that po

Stemming the menace of drug abuse and addiction August 27,2019 It is not the drugs that make a drug addict, it’s the need to escape reality – Riley Blue (Fictional character portrayed by Tuppence Middleton). Addiction begins with the hope that something “out there” can instantly fill up the emptiness inside – Jean Kilbourne, a public speaker. In Nigeria, the cosmetic approach of always treating the symptoms rather than the disease has created more problems than solutions in the fight against drug abuse and addiction. The failure to deploy a sustainable holistic approach to tackle drug abuse and addiction from the source keeps impacting our society negatively. This drug-troubled situation has remained so for long given the deep-rooted nature of drugs and this has eaten far into the fabric of our nation today. It is therefore imperative for all concerned and well-meaning Nigerians to address this ravaging challenge of drug abuse in our society today by providing a lasting solution as

This comes less than a week after Fatoyinbo refused to appear before the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN) panel investigating the rape allegations made against him by Dakolo. “Unfortunately, several attempts to meet Pastor Biodun of COZA church, who is one of the important parties in this matter, failed despite efforts by the fact-finding committee to get his attention or appearance,” PFN spokesman Emma Isong said at a press conference in Lagos. “The PFN, unfortunately, wishes to announce its inability to come into a conclusion on this matter.” Busola, in June, alleged that Fatoyinbo raped her twice in a week wh
