Former President Olusegun Obasanjo Concurs With The Sale Of National Assets.

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo yesterday at the opening ceremony of the National Council on Finance and Economic Development Conference (NACOFED), which held in Abeokuta, has concurred with the Federal Government's bid to sell off some National assets to help resuscitate the country's ailing economy.

“ I do not see why 49 per cent of NNPC cannot be privatised . I think the problem is in the coinage “ selling of asset ” as if we want to throw out our inheritance.

What we are actually doing by that is simply re-organising . It should however be done transparently and let it actually go public and not to cabals , relations and friends. This is always the fear of Nigerians when issues like this arise , ” he said.

Also speaking at the 2016 World Pension Summit in Abuja yesterday , the former President said that former state governors who were in office during his administration contributed to the current economic recession as they refused his government to save for the rainy day.

“ I remember when I was in government and I told , particularly , the governors, ‘please let us save for the rainy days. ’ They said no! . There was no rain at that time , now that the rain has come; there is nothing we can fall back on to cushion us. ” he said

Ijakumo Movie Review

Whatever this movie was set to give, it didn't give. Even the stripping is not giving. Why is the Sharon girl sex talking like she is doing spoken words??? I liked the babe in "Listening Ears", but I feel she is not 'mature' enough theatrically for this role. Wait, what I noticed was that Toyin and her crew didn't know there was a girl who looks like the Sharon girl in his church. A very crazy error that no director should make. If they had come in with this, maybe the finding out they were twin bla BLA BLA suspense would suspense well. But as the director or script writer were very myopic, the twin shii didn't hold water. If they had said or showed that they picked the Ugandan girl because she looked like the Nigerian girl in his church, e for make perfect sense. Seriously, I am miffed. The only thing that thrilled me was Kunle Remi and his lines. O mard gan. 🤣🤣🤣 "Emi mimo ni kin gbenu sohun". 🤣🤣🤣 "So, idi Uganda lo Fe baye mi j...

The Reed Dance ceremony is an annual Swazi and Zulu tradition hel...
