APC, Buhari supporters are responsible for the killings - PDP

By etismat

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Wednesday said President Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressives Congress (APC) supporters are responsible for the killings across the country.

“It is now abundantly clear to Nigerians that those fomenting crisis, including the bloody clashes and killings in Benue, Taraba, Zamfara, Nassarawa, Plateau, Kaduna, Edo, Borno, Yobe, Enugu, Kogi, Adamawa & other states in Nigeria are sponsored by @APCNigeria, @MBuhari supporters,” PDP said in a tweet.

The party also gave Buhari a 24-hour ultimatum to arrest the leaders of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association (MACBAN) or be held accountable for their actions.

This is coming after the coordinator of the association in Benue State, Garus Gololo, in an interview with Punch,
warned Senate President, Bukola Saraki, to resign from office or be forced out by the group.

“We are now tired of Saraki’s style of leadership at the National Assembly. Therefore, we are now warning him to honourably resign his position as president of the Senate or we will force him out”, Gololo said

However, PDP said Gololo’s outburst echoes the threats by the APC and supporters of the Buhari, to force out the Saraki, from office. The opposition party labelled the threats as ominous and revealing.

The party also noted that MACBAN has “always represented the military wing of the APC and the Buhari Presidency.”

“It is incontrovertible that they have now become the fourth arm of government, outside the Executive, Judiciary and the Legislature”.

Meanwhile, the MACBAN national body has dissociated itself from the threatening comments by Gololo and said it would sanction him for making such statement.

“We take exception on this statement and Garos Gololo is entirely on his own and will be sanctioned accordingly. We cannot afford to add up to the many challenges we are confronted with. I’m therefore appealing to the general public to disregard this statement as it is coming from someone who doesn’t have the mandate of the association to speak on its behalf.”

The Federal Government, through the Nigerian Shippers council (NSC), has disclosed plans to establish Truck Transit Park (TTP) in Ogbulafor Enugu State, at an estimated cost of $8.5million.

The Executive Secretary, NSC, Hassan Bello, while receiving the Outline Business Case (OBC) at the Infrastructure Concessioning Regulatory Commission (ICRC), in Abuja, disclosed that the Public Private Partnership (PPP) project would create over 3,154 jobs when completed.

Intimating that the Enugu State Government had provided 16.1 hectares for the construction of the TTP, Bello said once the preferred bidder emerges, and approved by the Federal Executive Council, construction work would commence, which is expected to be completed within two years.

He pointed out that the project would be private sector-led, while government would provide the necessary enabling environment for the private sector to recoup their investment.

Bello said the TTP was processed through the Economic, Recovery, Growth Plan (ERGP) focus labs, adding that of the 160 projects processed through the lab, the TTP accounted for seven, and rated 4-star on the scale of 1-5.

He said the establishment of the TTP must be an economic decision to be led by the private sector, while the federal government provides the enabling environment, adding that they have collaborated with stakeholders like NURTW, RETEA, NARTO, and NUPENG to own the project.

He said the Truck Park would be intermodal, integrated, and modern, and constructed in such a way that it would be inter- connected with the train stations, Inland Container Dry Port.

He however said government is yet to fix the timeframe for the concession period, but promised it would be reasonable enough to give investors comfort, to enable them recover their investment and also make profit

He further said the OBC for the Lokoja Truck Transit Park would be submitted to ICRC in the next two weeks, and afterwards, consider other states that have shown interest, including Edo, Sokoto, and Kebbi and a host of others.

He maintained that the TTP would be electronically driven, and companies would be invited to provide recreation services, banks, and maintenance services among others.

Also commenting, the Acting Director General, ICRC, Chidi Izuah, noted that more than 90 per cent of road crashes in Nigeria are caused by trucks, so transportation is key to economic performance.

He decried that Nigeria does not have any truck park facility, a development that has created a huge menace on the federal roads, which are the nation’s economic arteries, and anyone or thing blocking these arteries are blocking circulation of economic activities with severe problems on the economy.

He advised that the modern TTP should have a parking bay, way bridges, hotels, restaurants, gas station, kiosks, mechanic spares, mini fire station, sick bay, security, and cargo tracking facilities.

Super Eagles star, Ahmed Musa has revealed that he wanted to stay in the Premier League, but had no choice but to leave Leicester City.

“I wanted to stay in England because that has been my dream for years but what will you do when you’re told a bid has been accepted for you? I had to move to where I know I will be celebrated,” Musa is quoted as saying by Owngoalnigeria.com.

“Talks have been on about how I moved for the money but nobody has considered the fact that Leicester City also sold me for the money.

“Transfers can only happen if both parties agree to it and that was my case.”
