 You're welcome back. It's time now to go to the press and see what the headlines are and we're being joined by Mr. Tunde Kolauele legal practitioner who will be talking to us from Lagos here. Good morning and welcome to the program Mr. Kolauele. Yes, I did. I did. Thanks to God. Okay, so we're going to try to cover headlines from about four newspapers and that is the Punch, The Guardian, The Nation and Nature News as much as we can and then those that repeat themselves were going to skip. Now we'll begin with Punch newspaper. Punch newspaper is leading with a story about labor. 35,000 Naira wage award. Labor gives governors ultimatum 61 million Nigerians to get 1 trillion Naira. The writers on that story are ultimatum given by NLC, TUC applicable to states Kano, Gombe, NLC chapters, others. And then 15 million households to get 25,000 Naira monthly program will reduce poverty says World Bank. Let's hear your comments on that place. The issue is about the economy. And you don't have any other means of income. How do you cope with this pilot inflation? In all the centers of our land. Of course you want to act for increasing wages and employment. The sad aspect of this is that the country is no longer in need of much money to be able to meet the demands of labor. The question now is here. Where will government find the resources to be able to meet the needs of the labor sector? In coming with the cost of more money to pay wages and enhancements. Why is government going to impact on thinking of money? Like those who have no money to buy to be able to run the culture? You and I would agree that all this sort of things that are mentioned wouldn't be the best way to go. If you don't want to divide, if you don't want to destroy the Naira if you don't want the Naira to become like the big bad way donna the way you want to buy a money or you want to buy a money you have to go to the market with millions of the big bad way donna if only you can buy more things. I would have to buy a situation in which the government and then the labor movement will re-receive them and work out an economic blueprint that will set down this economy for eating the rocks for running the disaster and not to make the rumination of our people. Then more will be to borrow money to bring that money in the past of the time. It's not the way we should travel at all. Okay. I don't know. Labor is asking for the government is talking about giving 25,000 Naira to households which means maybe an average of four people per household we are going to get like 60 million people out of 200 million people being captured to benefit from that program. I don't know. Protesters, Tom National, okay, respond before I go. Even that in itself is a fact that we have chosen in the past to reconnect under the presence of all that is happening in the city of Pedemnon, Umayyad. We have all the money of the proper television program. We have all the money all the money of things and all that. Within size now we are tracking on that culture to what we have visited property in this country. What are the things that have come to this program of that? As soon as those money are added back to the children and now the main power the children will be able to connect to the program to all that for its mayor and these children for the day and even money remaining they go back to markets and find the victory and the young and the sector to be able to fix their economy for the children. Isn't this translating to any improvement in the economy going in the welfare or in the poverty of the residents and those that spoke up? I am here to see in any continuum money as those go up and then it is automatically transformed or translated into poverty and negation. The place where poverty has been aggravated and which they were competing with us was a Brazil under President Laguna and what did they do? They went into the school because children were going to school began to give them education and part of marketing to marketing I also quoted in the slums of the Brazil and the medals for the people of Brazil available to those many men on the street at very very cheap the coaches and of course they also invested a lot of money on the health sector such as the other men at very after at very cheap in access to the health sector people can have a soft path to move the better out so that they can hand in local money to people to simply go to the next market buy the area and so that they can be able to view a man a day and then maybe for one or two weeks and then they will pass back to their property we have tried this in the past also during the Uzozine when there was a lot of money from which we are from which we put a bank card and we can make it if you didn't translate it to any investment all the people that are in the time and cost here have been ready for that bank card bank and vision set and we are in a 20s world so when I first speaking I think I mean I think that both governments and people and also the demands of cost for the pathway to go the economy when you look at both the departments today in terms of the value of the area is about the need for you all and I want to say without any question that this problem has a vision that you are responsible for in the world is beyond the efficiency we require and all men of cost people of same size in the economy and the private sector to give out the blueprint for the way out of this and of course too the world requires to study this politics in terms of the something that has been wasted this is better on politics too many people in the city too many people in the heart of red too many people who have been taxes for political office owner who will have to give all this to them because they will tune down the cost of government to have to free themselves for the innovation of poverty Nigeria for the money of society let us all go back to something you will recognize there is this policy of government that they put an order to remember the decision to put in a decision to allow and I prefer those out there to be sold and then you got this some of those out there but tragically what I brought to we are back to square one they put an order to put in a decision to allow and of course too how we are going to get to there the same question who supports the government to go to the government state are also the ones that we are renting to help them out to be able to live comfortably because of their positions because of their taxes so this is Nigeria very important to the picture there hmm ok we have maybe following what Femi Falano said a few days ago about the fact that is not good or is not even constitutional for sensitive positions to come from one geopolitical zone we have seen a headline here protest as Tom National Assembly opposed EFCC chairs confirmation yes yes the confirmation of their chair and then some of those things as is the only of the kids even we lawyers are not agreed on whether the man that presenting who has pushed forward is qualified to take into the shoes of EFCC chairman or not whereas the secretary Falano has taken by his antecedent have been attacked by EFCC having been the secretary of the board of EFCC giving up on the thing here that they are standing here he is qualified to stand here and I think it is going to be qualified if you may not be on the basis of the central character structure if we say that the man like EFCC is from the southern part of Nigeria from the southern part of Nigeria to also be the EFCC chairman will be in violation of the central character principle so these are issues what I am aware of is that as they said anybody below the folder I think of the deputy or is it a fact of general public association of the EFCC chairman although we have also been having in the past his people and his professionals who have worked with the security and the police especially and some of these are not competent that are always considered as chairman of the EFCC and then for the EFCC that look up and think of some that are always put in there why we don't know that for the EFCC they are not too sure that the man who is being put forward now ask for achieving in the security in many of the security agencies he work at the security staff of the board of media that might not be sufficient for him to hold that post the board was also known that the EFCC they investigate cases they carry weapons and they are also susceptible towards the criminal of the fighting we value to some the EFCC so with that media one would prefer that the man who has a 10 feet experience for security like the police like even the um army the EFCC would prefer to be prosecuted for that post we wouldn't know why the man is being put forward to replace the staff but again if you look at the EFCC it's not too different or it's not a much different from this look over here at the committee so also I think he has been working here at the EFCC Europa is not there but I would like to show it here from the police of course for the man the general man what? the truth of the matter is that police they don't like punishing the EFCC they didn't say that they couldn't hold the post we should just consider our own acting for this capacity we should be able to deliver or know your responsibilities or know your duties and know that you aspire for the very challenging of the EFCC we will correct most people have those of people who don't have the capacity and all of them are not in the good and not even are not in not even in the good shoulder and not even in the good shoulder and for those people who are not in it's not enough it's not enough it's the first with the banana peels but for which anybody can sleep talk I am not in the group anytime okay so let's move to the Guardian newspaper very interesting headline there the Guardian leads with INEX credibility seems as 94% contested post a wait tribunal putting it into perspective 1,280 positions that were contested for and out of these 1,209 are in court being contested in the court so this is where we are right now INEX credibility is sinking we have been promised that November 11 everything will be transmitted first of all it was it will be transmitted electronically and then the chairman came again and said it was transmitted according to the provisions of the law so it gives him room to say okay the law said this as well the law said that as well not specifically that it has to be electronically but this is where we are INEX credibility sinking as 94% it's incredible so what are your comments please all I feel my brothers I think we should comment the cardinal of this report in fact I haven't seen any reports have got the character in any media in the recent time the cardinal have been able to use the whole design in a very graphic a very informative manner when this cardinal has to say it gives you a lot of what the cardinal have done other than to talk say that when this law was appointed the current chairman of INEX I remember a guy who came here that succeeded was asked a question what are the things that the land there now can be brought to the expectation and responsibilities of the office of the chairman of INEX and the guy replied that he thinks he can do it he is the guy that will be asking that person to say I am sure to have a future opinion the future of the matter is not fair INEX under the president chairman have stated that hopefully he is the INEX that the cardinal have put forward that the cardinal have published today is anything to cover we now see a situation in which even to try not to invest that is not to formula for the institute and the committee and now they demand that this matter and now this address to be compromised the integrity of our education so where do we go from here and we are going to start in 14th June for me who from America from Canada from India to come and start the one in the nation this is a tragedy furthermore we are now meeting the cost of the side to come into the country who has won in the country who has not won and by the time we do this we are completely we are purchasing the cost and if you look at what Senators look at what we put it to ourselves then the issues become more worrisome about our election that we are purchasing the cost is decided for the same of who won that election and we know our position they will do their very thing to get the valuable the winning and judgment in our court and when they start shopping for the very good winning and more they might want to compromise the integrity of the court if we are going to ensure that we get the good election come in the next election we should be looking at finding someone here to a high level at the national level and also at the state level remember when my kidney a lawyer he did a very beautiful job when he was a DIF in some of those states in some of those states and I think there was some in terms of in terms of a line-maker commissioner and lawyer I think his name is he also he also he also there are we require to shop for them to have some of this critical issue of the society I let NMPC and of course and then the new in the general post the air post and also the deputy deputy if we are able to provide all the new posts in some of those deputy we will not need to talk for a moment to really manage our own site we will not need to talk for a moment too we should have to clean down on the course of copyright in the international assembly make some of the papers about the part time mafia or the social media we are going to give you an award for giving a product of this and also let them also use their own color to provide their own basis after a while we are thinking of 5 minutes of writing to the offices there is no reason why our decision of the economic example of the country should not begin to show such examples as well let's move to another topic another headline on the front page we have this headline still on the Guardian newspaper which says upro in the senate gets messier I don't know if you have decided to that story and what you feel about the kind of problems going on there well on the sense of it because our positions are very superior people you have to read what is behind your mind looking at the country on the what is important is that we do not want to speak and we are shorted of the national assembly and let me work out of the senate the senate president convoked short dissolve and let the senate go into I think a special from some other things we have read in the paper some people are not happy with the distribution of the chairmanship of the senate committee and if you also look at Senator from Abu who's election has been caused by the court of appeal he has a name and some of them have been sent to them to be removed from the senate that he is one of them Senator Aboutay is one of them and our views of Kalu and some other four senators who say follow suit and the reason we are doing this is that they didn't support the election of a party and the senate president and they didn't support it because the chair that wants the president is from the other part of Nigeria the senate president should also go to some other zones for the country that they don't like a party or that they have any issues with them but they are not thinking about the national space special character and it is because of this that they are being punished well I hope this is really not the issue between the senate president and the senate president but we should not forget that the senate president will be described as something to say in the news of war for some time it is like a news column for some time it is like a new type of war it is like a new type of war to any specific constituent or ideology will be brought forth and go depending on the personal interests and my view is that when you have become a senator the whole Nigeria becomes your constituency and you are part of the interest to be supported better to the interest of the Nigerian people where you do not do this there is never going to be peace in this country and you might not be able to decide your responsibility of that option which is to make law in the sense of constituency and do a part of it function in the last three months of the other part that the senate has composed in what way as they turn any of these three things that I am talking about that I want to mention is these people minister to their own personal well-shared accommodation on the day of additional allowance and of course don't get in a line the world to attend one to go to the terminal who observes and the which is not urgently value to their full responsibility it seems like we have seen in the past Nigeria should pay attention not just to the time of coming but also to the translator and therefore the division mystery hands of coming and then Kusya to the so called democracy the rule of law and the overall of the Nigeria people okay well there are so many other things that we could have talked about but this is how we are going to wrap it up this morning this segment we would like to thank you so much Tunde Kolaule for coming on the program this morning okay Tunde Kolaule you too same here well Tunde Kolaule is a legal practitioner here in Lagos and he was talking with us on the headlines that made it to the front pages of some of our national dailies we were not able to take all of them we took a good chunk of the very very important ones we do hope that you are having a wonderful day where you are we are going to take a short break now and when we return we will be talking with our other guests that will be looking at so many other issues that we need to discuss today stay with us
