.@AsoRock PRESS RELEASE

ALL PASSENGERS SHOULD SUBMIT THEMSELVES TO CHECKS AT OUR AIRPORTS - MINISTER HADI SIRIKA @hadisirika

#Thread
The claim by @atiku is a mischievous attempt to grab the headlines. Nigerians need to know that one of the resolutions of the Atiku team at their recently-concluded Dubai retreat was to embark on scaremongering. This is one of such.
For the records, all incoming passengers on international flights go through customs, Immigration, health and security screening.

Now that the GENCOs are producing above 7000 MW of Power while the TCN convey the Power to the DISCOs. It is high time Nigerians know and understand the DISCOs responsibilities which is to supply electricity to the consumers, provide meters and collect the money.

THREAD!!!
Before the privatization, all these three functions of Power Generation, Power Transmission and Power Distribution were substantially Government business, which was run as a monopoly through Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN).
This means that Govt generated the power from various gas and hydro power plants, transported the power from hundreds of substations across Nigeria and distributed the power from distribution stations nationwide, and supplied meters, billed customers and collected the money.

ON @PeterObi PETER OBI’s USE OF ECONOMIC DATA AT THE VICE PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE: BETWEEN FACTS AND FICTION

It's a thread..
Economic data is not fixed, such data is based on specific date or period. Though the figures change every second, periodic figures are used for range of time until the data provider publishes updated figures. This explains why Nigeria’s unemployment rate is still quoted at18.8%
despite the fact that the data is more than one year old. Provided no current figure is available, the latest figure remains the most reliable.
Having researched the figures quoted by Mr. Peter Obi at the Vice Presidential debate, I wish to present to you the comprehensive source

Why the 1999 constitution does not support steady power #Thread

In 1882, Thomas Edison built the first power plant in New York City. Over a 10 year period, he built more power plants around the city and a few others. New York City has been with uninterrupted power for over
125 years.

Other investors saw what he did, and the proliferation of power stations spread across the United States and Canada on a city by city basis. Cities that didn't have power either invited investors to build power plants for them or the Municipal Government created
Public Utilities to purchase power from nearby plants. Each city and municipal area, sought to provide power for their citizens.

Other cities worldwide observed what was happening in US cities, and built power plants for themselves too.

On the evening of 7/9/18, fighters loyal to ISWAP raised their flag over #Gudumbali, HQ of Guzamala LGA, #Borno.

Soldiers and policemen in town abandoned their positions, and in some instances discarded their uniforms as they sought to escape the advancing terrorists.
What was striking was the speed with which @HQNigerianArmy lost control of Gudumbali, a strategic town that lies on the road between Damasak and Monguno.

This attack was less than a week after 145 Battalion was attacked in Zari, 51km away, leading to the loss of 48 soldiers.
Belatedly, @HQNigerianArmy launched a counter-attack to retake #Gudumbali on the evening of 8/9/18.

As of the time of writing this report, the operation is still ongoing with fighting having spread as far as Kukawa, 43km away.
