All Airports In Nigeria Will Be Shut Sunday Midnight – Aviation Unions

Airports across Nigeria may be shut down beginning from Sunday midnight, two leading unions in the sector have threatened.

The unions – National Union of Air Transport Employees, (NUATE) and the National Association of Aircraft Pilots and Engineers (NAAPE), in a letter dated October 21, 2015, accused the NCAA of not adhering to the condition of service with respect to promotion of workers and other welfare issues.

The letter jointly signed by the Secretary General NUATE and Secretary General NAAPE, Comrades Olayinka Abioye and Aba Ocheme, respectively, threatened to shut down the agency from mid-night on Sunday until further notice.
The unions insisted that the withdrawal of service by the workers became paramount in order to safeguard the integrity of NCAA’s condition of service.
The unions noted that the action of the Director-General of the NCAA, Captain Muhtar Usman, was in violation of section 3.4 of condition of service, adding that all efforts to discuss with the management had been futile.

The letter said: “By the copy of this notice, the general public is hereby informed of this development and the implications that all safety regulations activities of the NCAA will be unavailable from that time and date.
“The above notice will remain in force until otherwise directed by the secretariat of our unions.”
“The management of NCAA has been playing some pranks so to speak because ordinarily, people who are due for promotion ought to have received their letters since January or thereabout, but as we speak those letters are not forthcoming.

“The management is trying to introduce a new policy that is not known to the condition of service, which is that they said the ministry of aviation directed them to conduct an examination.
“We are going to take all lawful and legal steps to ensure that we do what we have capacity and capability to do, which the last resort will be a strike because we are tired of impunity of the NCAA management,” the letter added.

Nigeria Education 'PTDF overseas scholarship has not been cancelled'

Reports that thePetroleum Technology Development Fund(PTDF) overseas scholarship scheme has been cancelled are false.
The Executive Secretary of PTDF,Femi Ajayi, made the clarification while speaking withDaily Trustat a two-day workshop on collaboration between Oil and Gas Centres of Excellence and Nigerian tertiary institutions.
Ajayi explained that the Fund only restructured the terms of the scheme.
"The PTDF has not cancelled the scheme,"the Executive Secretary said.
"The point I have made is that as much as possible we want to increase capacity building locally here and because of that even our training partners; we have told them that going forward, people that we would be favourably disposed to, are those partners who are ready to encourage our domestication drive.

"We are asking them to come and set up shops in our country here, to do what they are doing for us over there, here."

He further explained that cancelling the scheme is not likely to ever happen because of the importance of encouraging interaction interaction.
"In fact we are not likely to be able to cancel it outright because don’t forget, there is a need for intellectual interaction and diffusion even within the country.
"If you bring scholars who trained in the US, Germany and the ones that trained in the UK, the mix is the best you can have and be better for you because we are combining the expertise from so many places."

The PTDF is a Federal Government parastatal established to develop petroleum technology and building indigenous manpower for Nigeria's oil and gas industry.

In Ekiti Govt college hit by strange disease, 300 students hospitalised

At least 300 students of the Federal Government Girls’ College in Efon Alaaye,EkitiState, are hospitalised after being infected with a strange disease.
According to reports, parents have already withdrawing their children from the school as news of the epidemic spread on Thursday.
It was gathered that the diseased is suspected to be Cholera, as some of the victims have been treated and discharged, but a chunk of them are still being treated.
Symptoms of the disease was said to have started manifesting on October 10, and according to the school principal, Grace Ogunyomi, the case was reported to the state government but no immediate action was taken - only routine medical attention was said to have been provided.
However, the state GovernorAyodele Fayose, is said to have immediately directed the state Commissioner for Health, DrOlurotimi Ojo, to deploy medical personnel to stop the spread of the disease.
Mrs. Ojo dismissed reports that the disease is cholera, he said it wasdiarrhea.
It was initially believed that the students’ food must have been contaminated, but it was later found that the source of the disease was not from their food.
The Commissioner said,“We alerted the water corporation to chlorinate their water. They have about six boreholes and we have got them chlorinated, because we knew as professionals that the water could be a source,” he said.
“We are trying to look into their environment, so that we can get where such could have broken out. We want to know how they dump their faeces and how they dump their sewage.
“We have taken the blood samples of students infected to the hospital and preliminary test shows that it was not cholera. It was diarrhea and vomiting. We are sending the samples for further test to confirm that it was not cholera.”
She assured that there is no cause for alarm as government would ensure the situation is nomalised.
