The song surfaced online yesterday. It’s obviously unfinished but you can definitely get the feeling that it’s a hit in the making. Hopefully the finished joint drops soon.

ASUU Strike Has Increased Prostitution, Group Alleges
COALITION of Civil Society Organizations, Market women and students have staged a protest with placards of different inscriptions at the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja, over the continuous strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, alleging that the strike has increased prostitution in the country.
The group which noted that the strike was entering the fourth month appealed to the Nigerian Labour Congress, NLC, the Trade Union Congress, TUC and appealed to the union to call off the strike in the interest of Nigerians.
Some of the placards read, “ASUU please save our young girls from prostitution, NLC, TUC and NUPENG mediate now, Stop playing politics with our future, This ASUU strike has lost its tactics, ASUU please save our future.”
Though, the group in some of the placards had accused the striking university teachers of being selfish and too rigid in their demands, in what looked like a contradiction, the groups also said that the demands were germane and for the good of the education system.
Delivering a letter to the NLC President at the Labour House, the leader of the protest and Executive Director of Conscience Nigeria, Comrade Tosin Adeyanju said that they decided to embark on the protest to appeal to the labour leaders to mediate on the lingering face-off between ASUU and the Federal Government that had led to the continuous closure of public universities in the country.
Comrade Adeyanjul said, “We embarked on this protest today to further appeal to all major stakeholders in the Nigeria project and we deem it fit to come to the labour house because of the strategic importance that labour represents in this country.
“For almost 100 days, our students, our dependants, our children have been locked out of our ivory towers and nothing has changed. We are here to appeal to the labour leaders in this country to come and mediate on the lingering and prolonged ASUU strikes.
“We are not unaware on the germane and relevant issues raised by ASUU, there is need for our institutions to be revitalized, there is need for improved research, there is need for improved allowance, there is need for infrastructural development in ivory towers, but all over the world no country has been able to meet the demands of labour unions 100 per cent.”
“With the information available to us, we are aware that the federal government proposed and has given ASUU a 100 billion initial fund requested for different issues in the various universities.
We are aware that ASUU appealed for more money to be given on the earned allowance and 30 billion was given for earned allowance as at today about 130 billion has been given to ASUU.”
Receiving the protesters, President of NLC, Abduwaheed Omar, represented by the Chief Economist of NLC, Dr. Peter Ozo’eson said that the labour leaders had initiated moves by writing to the Federal government about four times on how to mediate but government had not responded to their letters.

Solomon Lar Lived In Abuja Rented apartment, Had Difficulty Paying Rent,aide Says
NATIONAL, NEWS
Arthur Eze promised to buy the
house for Mr. Lar’s family.
The members of the National Working
Committee, NWC, of the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, led by
Bamanga Tukur, paid a condolence
visit to the Abuja home of the pioneer
chairman of the ruling party, Solomon
Lar, only to be shocked that the late
politician was merely a tenant there.
Mr. Lar died in the United States on
Wednesday at 80. He was the first
civilian governor of the old Plateau
State, comprising the present Plateau
and Nasarawa. He also served the
country in other capacities, including
Police Affairs Minister under the
military administration of Sani Abacha
before he became the founding PDP
National Chairman in 1998.
An aide of the late politician, Danladi
Wuyep, a former ambassador, told
the NWC members during the
condolence visit that he (Mr. Lar) did
not have a private house in Abuja.
Mr. Wuyep explained that the duplex
Mr. Lar and members of his family
lived in Maitama District, Abuja, was
not only a rented apartment, but that
he was already having challenges in
paying the rent before his demise.
The aide added that he and other
family members, whose names he did
not mention, were planning to see Mr.
Tukur, over matter before the death of
Lar abroad.
Earlier, the PDP chairman said he
received with shock the news of the
death of Mr. Lar, whom he described
him as one of Nigeria’s greatest
nationalist.
“It is with shock that I received the
shattering news of the passage of one
of Nigerian’s greatest nationalist
Chief Dr Solomon Lar,” Mr. Tukur
said.
“Chief Solomon Lar has been a close
friend and an associate, to me
politically for a long time now, he was
open minded, fearless, dogged, and a
resolute fighter for the right of the
oppressed and the less privileged.
“A great family man and
disciplinarian, Lar was a dependable
husband to his spouse and a loving
father who cherished his children.
“He did not spare anything in given
his children the best training and
education”.
He also noted that the late elder
statesman was one of those who
challenged certain policies of the
military regime at that time despite
the dangers to their lives and property
which such divergent views posed.
“Chief Lar stood to be counted
among other nationalists and brave
statesmen who refused to keep quiet
while the nation was getting close the
precipitate.
“It was his group which midwife the
formation of the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP). Lar was one of the
founding fathers of PDP and our
pioneer Chairman.
“He also led the PDP to electoral
victories in 1999. In a sense, Chief
Lar laid the foundation for the strong
resilient and vibrant political party
which the PDP is today,” the PDP
chairman said.
Mr. Lar’s daughter, Beni, who is a
member of the House of
Representatives, said the father lived
for the peace and unity of the
country.
She challenged the PDP leaders to
carry on with this legacy, even within
the PDP family.
Meanwhile, a businessman and
politician, Arthur Eze, who was also
on a condolence visit to the Lar family
when the PDP delegation came,
promised the family that he would buy
the same apartment for the children
of the deceased.
“I am paying for the house, don’t
border yourself”, he said.
Mr. Eze, who hails from Anambra
State, extolled Mr. Lar’s virtue,
adding that the late politician assisted
him when he was governor of Plateau
State.
He described Mr. Lar as a detribalized
Nigerian who was willing to lend a
helping hand to the down trodden.
“I came to him from Enugu, he never
knew me before and he gave me the
contract for the building of a
television station. The first money that
touched my hand came from him. He
is a different human being,” he said

Governors To Corpers - Create Jobs For Yourselves
The National Youth Service Corps on Thursday organised a passing out ceremony for the 2012 Batch C NYSC members across the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory with some governors advising them to deploy their energies towards nation building. They also advised them to create jobs for themselves.
In Akwa Ibom State, the governor, Mr. Godswill Akpabio, advised them to continue serving the nation in whatever sector of the economy they find themselves.
Speaking through the Commissioner for Culture and Tourism, Mr. Ita Umo, during the passing out ceremony in Uyo on Thursday, the governor urged the youth corps members to develop positive attitude towards the country.
He said, “Let me advise you that the task of nation building does not end with your one year mandatory service. As you step out of the scheme and Akwa Ibom State today, you need to be reminded to always have positive attitude towards Nigeria, by aspiring to lift our nation high as inscribed in the NYSC anthem.
The governor advised the outgoing 2,893 corps members in the state to embrace self-employment.
Also, Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun State, urged the corps members to deploy their creative thinking into how to create jobs for themselves rather than roaming the streets in search of paid jobs.
Aregbesola said this at the NYSC Orientation Camp in Ede, Osun State on Thursday at the passing out ceremony of 2012 Batch C corps members deployed into the state.
He said, “ It is imperative to stress that gone are the days to expect that immediately after service, one would secure an automatic life-time job even among several alternatives. The attitude and orientation of majority of our young graduates was that creative thinking and individual initiative ended when they wrote their final examination.
“This is absolutely wrong. You need to apply creativity more now in the face of unemployment bedeviling the nation. Focus more on self employment.”
Also, the Rivers State Governor, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, advised the outgoing corps members to train themselves to become self-reliant in order to assist government to tackle the problem of unemployment.
Amaechi, who gave this advice on Thursday while addressing the 2012 Batch ‘C’ corps members at the passing-out of 3,431 corps members in Port Harcourt, said that white collar jobs were no longer available for employable Nigerians.
“As you are now faced with the task of seeking gainful employment, I advise you to nurture and apply yourselves to the practical lessons of self-employment, which you were exposed to in the course of your service year, through the skills acquisition and entrepreneurial development programme, as white collar jobs are no longer available for all employable Nigerians as in the past.
“I therefore urge you to be self-reliant so as to assist the government in fighting the rising rate of unemployment in our society,” Amaechi said.
However Governor Sullivan Chime of Enugu State urged them to make the necessary sacrifice required to achieve success in their chosen careers.
The governor said this on Thursday, at their passing-out ceremony in Enugu.
He said, “Some of you may be rightly apprehensive of what tomorrow holds for you. I want to assure you that it is bright. As educated young men and women with requisite skills, the sky is your limit.
“However, you must recognise that the road to success has never been easy. History has shown that no individual or nation has ever achieved success without sacrifices.”
He said that through their education and participation in the NYSC scheme, they had been equipped for survival in a competitive world.
Also, Governor Mukhtar Yero of Kaduna State commended the outgoing corps members for their contributions in tackling developmental challenges in the country.
Yero gave the commendation on Thursday at the passing out parade of 2012 ‘’ batch C ‘’ Corps members in Kaduna.
Represented by his deputy, Nuhu Bajoga, the governor noted that the scheme had impacted positively on the lives of the people, especially in the rural areas.
However, in Gombe State, Governor Ibrahim Dankwambo offered automatic employment to 13 NYSC members who distinguished themselves in the service year.
The News Agency of Nigeria reported that the appointment included the 12 state merit awardees and the parade commander of the passing out parade ceremony.
The governor also announced N20,000 transport fares to each of the 720 youths, N500,000 to the overall best corps member and N1m to the soldiers that conducted the passing out parade ceremony
