Buhari Has Done Far More Than Previous Government- VP Osinbajo says

Professor Yemi Osinbajo, has said that despite the meagre income from the oil, which is the mainstay of the economy, Buhari’s administration has done more than the previous governments.

The Vice President said this While speaking in a town hall meeting in Bariga/Somolu Local Council Develpment Area of Lagos State on Tuesday, adding that President Muhammadu Buhari’s government has done more in terms of infrastructure development than the previous administration.

According to Vanguard, Osinbajo also said Buhari’s administration would continue to focus on the common man and taking Nigerians out of poverty through its social investment programmes, and called for unity among all Nigerians, as he felicitated with Lagosians on the Eid-el-Kabir celebration.

Addressing a gathering, comprising All Progressives Congress (APC), chieftains in the state, youth groups, state government officials and the LCDA chairmen of Somolu and Bariga, he noted that the administration’s National Social Investment Programmes, N-SIP, was geared towards improving the welfare of ordinary Nigerians.

He said: “The President’s focus has always been on the common man. So, when we came, we decided on a few things to tackle youth unemployment. First, the N-Power programme to engage as many young people who are graduates as possible.

“We started with 200,000, and just this month, we have employed another 300,000. So, in our N-Power programme, we have 500,000 young graduates who are employed in the programme. Now every local government in Nigeria has N-Power graduates.”

He said: “In the past four years of the previous administration, over US$393 billion was earned in oil proceeds alone. In the past three years, we have earned US$94 billion, look at the difference. And the reasons are very straightforward.

“The price of oil was about half of what it used to be. But with the same $94 billion, we have been able to do far more.”

‘Opposition cannot distract us from the good work we are doing’ – President Buhari

Buhari appoints

President Buhari yesterday in Daura said the combined efforts of defectors and their supporters in the opposition will not distract his administration from the good work it is doing for the benefit and development of Nigeria.

He stressed that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has the full understanding of Nigeria’s challenges and is encouraged by the support of Nigerians in addressing them. The President spoke at a lunch with some APC Governors accompanied by some members of the National and State assemblies and commissioners.

‘‘We are always encouraged when all our constituents are happy with the work we are doing and our genuine efforts to make sure that what we campaigned for in 2015 is still very much in our minds and we have not lost focus. In terms of security, economy and the fight against corruption we have maintained focus. Even the opposition with all their resources cannot fault our identification of Nigeria’s priorities and the efforts being made to better them. We will continue to do what we ought to do in the leadership position God has placed us and we thank the constituents for the support,’’ he said.

On the defections within the major political parties, the President reiterated his earlier message to them: ‘‘for those who have decided to change camp for whatever reason, we wish them good luck.’’

Tiwa Savage opens pop up shop in London (Photos+Videos)

Just like Wizkid, Tiwa Savage has announced the opening of her Pop-up store in London few days before her Savage Tour.

She took to social media on Monday to announce her Pop-Up store in London, which she revealed will be launching and officially open for business today, a day before her Savage Tour in O2 Arena.

This store will consist of pieces like sweatshirt, tees, classic hoodies, phone cases and everything savage with an inscription of the Tiwa Savage’s name on it.

This same action was taken by Wizkid during his Afrorepublik show at the O2 Arena on May 26th where the Afrobeat singer unveiled his Pop-up store in London on the 25th. This move repeated by Tiwa Savage is a strategic one as it helps the artiste sell out their fashionable stocks to fans who want to have a piece of their favourite artistes with them while they listen to them perform Live. This way these artiste are using one show to generate more revenue.

So for people talking about the relationship between the artistes, you can now see the benefits, from O2 to Pop-Up stores. We await 23rd and 24th of August to tick another box for the history makers in the African music industry.

The mother of one shared photos from the launch today. SHaring the pictures, she wrote;

First photos from Ras Kimono’s lying-in-state service in Lagos

The burial ceremony of Nigerian Music Legend, Augustine Okeleke Onwubuya aka Ras Kimono begins today with a lying-in-state service held at the COSON house in Ikeja.

Late Ras Kimono will be buried on August 25, 2018.

See more photos from the event below…

On Thursday morning, the late musician’s body left the TOS Funeral Home where it has been preserved since his June 10, 2018 death.

A convoy of vehicles with full loads of family, friends and associates lined the impeccable road that leads to Magodo — the late musician’s place of residence — as the hearse bearing his remains was driven out of the lush environment where the TOS Funeral Home is.

The dreadlocked musician had reportedly slumped at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, while waiting to board a flight to the United States, on the night of Saturday, June 9.

According to sources close to him, Kimono was immediately rushed to an unnamed hospital in Ikeja, Lagos, and then taken to another hospital on the Island, where he later died on Sunday morning.
