Rivers State Polytechnic NANS calls Wike a 'rascal' over 344 workers' sack, allege 'vengeful vendetta'

GovernorNyesom Wikehas been criticized over the sacking of 344 lecturers and other staff ofRivers State Polytechnic, Boni-Ogoni.
TheNational Association of Nigerian Students(NANS) condemned the action in a statement signed by its National President, ComradeTijani Usman.
According to Usman, the decision is an "administrative rascality" and “vengeful vendetta” that should be condemned.
"Nigerian students condemn in totality the action taken by the Rivers State governor as it lacks any moral and rational justification," Usman said.
"Sacking 344 lecturers and other staff of the institution in one fell swoop under the guise that their employment did not follow due process is a demonstration of administrative rascality.”
Usman added that Wike, being a former minister of state of education, should not have allowed political sentiments to affect his decisions in the sector.
“It is sad that rather than concentrate on providing dividends of democracy as promised, he is busy carrying out vengeful vendetta."
Wike had directed that the worker's appointments be terminated barely 20 days into office, alleging that the immediate past governor,Rotimi Amaechi, arbitrarily employed about 500 people without due process.
There were speculations that a further 13,200 teachers employed by the last government are at risk of being sacked.

In Sokoto... 16-yr-old student still missing 2 months after attack by hired thugs

A 16-year-old student ofSani Dingyadi Unity Secondary Schoolin Sokoto State,Abdulrahman Bala Altine, has been missing for two months.
Altine's father, MalamBala Altine Kasarawa, toldDaily Trustthat his son disappeared after an attack by thugs said to have been hired by the state’ chairman of theNigerian Union of Teachers(NUT),Chika Maidamma.
Kasarawa said Maidamma, who is also his neighbour, had sent the thugs to deal with his son who had quarelled with his [Maidamma] wife.
“His wife, Hajiya Rabi entered my house and beat up my son, Abdulrahman, in the presence of his mother," Kasarawa said.
"The incident caused his mother to collapse because she is hypertensive. It took us hours to revive her.
"As we were reviving her, Chika hired area boys who came looking for Abdulrahman in two vehicles and dangerous weapons, but by then, he had left the house.
He said his son has been missing since that incident.
"Since I did not know his whereabouts, I reported the matter to the police.
"The police invited and detained Chika, only to be released after agreeing to find my child within one week which has since elapsed.
"He was later invited by the police again and DSS and was let go after promising to look for the boy and bring him home."
But the matter took a new turn when the alleged assaulter arrested Kasarawa.
“On Sunday, May 17, Chika reported me to Bado office of the Nigeria Civil Defence Corps who came and arrested me at around 2:17am," he added.
"He later reported me to the Assistant Inspector General of Police in charge of Zone 10, accusing me of aiding my son to escape arrest after attacking his pregnant wife at his residence.
"This is why I resorted to the press, to help me seek justice over the matter."
Maidamma has however denied the allegations.
He said the 'missing' student was the one who hired area boys to unleash terror on his pregnant wife.
“We were at the hospital till 2am on that fateful day because she was bleeding as a result of the attack,” he said.
"And we were advised to come back every week by the doctor.
The NUT chairman however corroborated Kasarawa's claim that he was initially arrested.
He however said he had delayed taking action over the matter with the hope that the student would be found and handed over to the police.

Strike lecturers at theTaraba State Universitywill continue their three-month long action until the state government fulfils its promises to them. The chapter Chairman of theAcademic Staff Union of Universities(ASUU), Dr Reuben Jonathan, who spoke toDaily Trust, said the need for proper funding of the university by the state government led to the industrial action. "University is capital intensive and now that the state has delved into, she has to fund it," he said. Jonathan noted that the state government had refused to pay lecturers five months strike during the infamous national ASUU strike in 2013. The union leader said after two change in government in the state, the union had only received N100 million of the nearly N500 million owed it. "Apart from the N100 million given by the state government so far, nothing has come to the university from the state, which is too bad." He added that the university would not have existed but for the projects executed under theTertiary Education Trust Fund(TETFund)

PresidentMuhammadu Buhari's government must take the task of revitalizing public education as important as the much talked about anti-corruption war if the promised change is to be achieved.
The Vice-Chancellor ofKwara State University(KWASU), Malete, ProfessorAbdulrasheed Na’Allah, said this recently in aDaily Trustinterview.
Na’Allah said the new government needs to take public education as seriously as corruption.
"Public education must be revitalized," he said.
"I know it is important this government look into corruption but I have not heard a lot said about public education and that is extremely important and it has to be a policy focus, the government should declare war or emergency and mobilize from local governments to states to revitalize public education in Nigeria."
The Vice Chancellor noted that the terrible state of many schools has led to many parents opting for private schools because "people have no more confidence in public schools and I think this government must take this as one area of major change for Nigeria.
"If public education is revitalized and parents begin to have confidence again in public education, a lot of changes will come to this nation."
He concluded that bringing back the glory days of education would go a long way in actualizing the government’s change drive

How Seven Youths Gang-rape Trader In Alaba Market

Two of them, ─ Abeeb Busari, 22, and 18-year-old Lawal Gbolahan ─ who were nabbed and arraigned in court by the police, have been remanded in custody by an Apapa Magistrate’s Court.

PUNCH Metro learnt that the police had launched a manhunt for the other fleeing offenders while the arrested suspects have owned up to the crime.

The victim, 24-year-old Bola (pseudonym), sells fairly-used clothes in the area.

It was gathered that the woman was hawking her wares around 4.30pm on May 27, when Busari, who works as a bricklayer on a construction project at the market, summoned her under the pretext of buying a jacket for which he agreed to pay N500.

He reportedly told her to follow him to a room in a plaza at the market ─ where he had lodged ─ to collect the money for the item.

Busari, it was learnt, was acting on the order of one of his accomplices, identified as Tunde, who reportedly orchestrated the crime to punish the victim for an undisclosed offence.

Our correspondent was told that on getting to the room, Busari shut the door and ordered the woman to sit, while Gbolahan and the other five fugitives jumped down from the roof, where they had hidden. They allegedly took turns To Molest her.

After about 30 minutes, a welder, Idris Lasisi, who reportedly saw the trader and Busari, traced her to the plaza and barged into the room.

PUNCH Metro learnt that the suspects threatened him with a dagger when he attempted to raise the alarm.

Busari, who hails from the Ikorodu area of the state, confessed to the crime, saying it was Tunde, one of the fleeing suspects, who planned the act.

He said, “I was in the market on the fateful day when I saw Bola hawking fairly-used clothes.

I deceived her that I wanted to buy a jacket and asked her to follow me upstairs to collect the money.

As soon as she entered my room, I locked the door. Before then, my friend, Tunde had made arrangement with other five boys to hide inside the ceiling.

“They jumped down as soon as she came in. It was Tunde, who tore her panties and threatened her with a dagger. Idris (Lasisi) forcefully entered while the act was on, but Tunde threatened to stab him if he shouted. When we were done, I gave her N500 for the jacket, but Tunde collected it from her.”

In his statement, Gbolahan, who is also a bricklayer, said he was in his house, located around the market when Tunde invited him, adding that he was forced To Molest the woman.

He said, “I was inside my own room, when Tunde called me into the room, where Bola was kept. He told me she had offended him once and he wanted to deal with her. He forced me to join in gang-raping her.”

It was gathered that Lasisi eventually managed to sneak out of the room while the men were immersed in the act and alerted traders at the market, leading to Busari and Gbolahan’s arrest by policemen from the Layeni Police Station.

They were subsequently arraigned before a chief magistrate, Mr. P.A. Adekomaya, on two counts of rape.

The charges read, “That you, Abeeb Busari, Lawal Gbolahan, and five others now at large, on May 27, 2015, at about 4.30pm, at Alaba New Market, Lagos, in the Apapa Magisterial District, did conspire to commit felony to wit: rape.

“That you and five others at large on the same date, time and place in the aforesaid magisterial district did unlawfully and forcefully have the carnal knowledge of one Bola.”

The defendants pleaded guilty to the charges, which according to a police prosecutor, ASP Olusoji Ojaokomo, contravene sections 409 and 348 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, Nigeria, 2011.

Adekomaya ordered that the defendant be remanded in prison and adjourned the case till July 28, 2015.

A human rights lawyer,Maxwell Opara, has dragged theNational Open University of Nigeria(NOUN) before a Federal High Court over its law degree programmes.
Opara, in a writ of summons filed by his counsel, Nnenna Opara, argued that the law programme of NOUN has not conformed to the minimum standards of law education as set by the Nigerian Law School (NLS)'s Council of Legal Education (CLE) which stipulates that "law must be studied on a full time basis and not on part time or by correspondence."
According to him, NOUN "deceived and lured innocent Nigerians to believe that NOUN was duly accredited to offer law."
Opara avers that he sponsored two persons to take the NOUN programme before realizing that that the institution has no approval to offer law, with the Nigerian Law School rejecting thousands of the programme's graduates with LL.B degrees.

Justice Ahmed Mohammed ordered the applicant to serve hearing notices on NOUN and the NUC.
The matter was adjourned to October 1 for hearing.
