Nigeria's economy may collapse in 90days- Gov. Fayose

Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose, has asked the President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government to address the nation on the state of the economy and stop propaganda. Speaking at the 22nd Convocation of the College of Education, Ikere Ekiti, on Friday, Fayose warned that unless drastic action is taken, the economy might collapse in the next three months. Fayose, who is the Visitor to the College, lamented the deplorable state of the nation’s economy, noting that rather than address it, the All Progressives Congress- led Federal Government has been employing propaganda to deal with the issue.

He said: “This is the time for the Federal Government to come out and tell Nigerians about the state of the economy rather than employ propaganda. “I foresee serious trouble ahead because in the next three months, the economy may collapse. Oil now sells in the region of $40 per barrel. Things have never been bad like this. When I returned from the Holy Land yesterday (Wednesday), I was told that Ekiti got N1.4bn whereas my wage bill per month is N2.6bn.”

He decried that Ekiti people don’t pay tax, wondering how government could work for the people with depleting allocation from the centre. Fayose advised both lecturers and students to promote morals, saying lecturers who sexually harass students cannot promote morals. In her convocation address, the Provost of the College, Professor Francisca Aadejana said a total of 70 students bagged Distinction out of over 2,000 graduating students for the regular NCE certificate. She said 29 others also bagged Distinction from Professional Diploma in Education which is affiliated to Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria

Appeal Court Rejects Umana's Petition

The Court of Appeal in Abuja has rejected the brief filed by Obong Umana Okon Umana and the All Progressive Congress (APC), Akwa Ibom State. The brief according to the court did not fulfil the basic requirements for filing of briefs of argument as it falls short of Order 6, section 8 of the Court of Appeal Rules.

The section provides that, “Twenty copies of all briefs in respect of the appeal shall be filed in Court. All such copies shall be endorsed for service on the other side which shall also be duly paid for by the party filing same”.
The Appeal court’s position is sequel to a complaint made by the Peoples Democratic Party and Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) that the copies of the briefs served them by the APC were not fully signed or endorsed by the court before being served and the court has also noted that filling fees were not paid.

The Akwa Ibom Election Petition Tribunal in Abuja recently upheld the election of Mr Udom Emmanuel as Governor of Akwa Ibom State and ordered for a re-run in 18 Local Government Areas. Dissatisfied by the tribunal’s judgement, the APC is appealing the decision.

The Appeal Court also reject the briefs over the documentary evidence presented by the petitioners was absolutely in proof of the respondent’s case.

The petitioner came to court originally and said that there was no election at all in the Akwa Ibom state. From paragraph 60 of their petition, they said there was no election and somewhere along the line, they now added that there was election in some local government, wards and units.

Evidence was called and they were manifest contradictions between the original case and the evidence laid in court they now went further to produce copious evidence in proof of the respondent case and in dis-proof of their allegations;
