FOCAC: Nigeria has benefited $5BN over in projects - President Buhari












Nigeria's partnership with China through the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) has resulted in the execution of vital infrastructure projects across the country, valued at over $5 billion in the last three years of the current administration.



President Buhari disclosed this on Tuesday in Beijing at the FOCAC Round Table meeting, attended by African leaders and Chinese President Xi Jinping. Highlighting specific projects under FOCAC, the President said through the Chinese support, Nigeria has impressively addressed significant challenges in the areas of infrastructure, human capacity development, power, transport, agriculture and humanitarian assistance.



According to him, ''For Nigeria, our partnership with China through the FOCAC platform, has resulted in the construction of the first urban rail system in West Africa. This $500 million project in Abuja was commissioned in July this year.”



The President also cited the construction and operation of the first rail system in Africa that uses modern Chinese standards and technology.


“This 180km rail line that connects Abuja and Kaduna was commissioned two years ago at a cost of $500 million. Today the rail line is functioning efficiently with no issues – indeed, a sign that Chinese technology is world class. Nigeria is leveraging Chinese funding to execute $3.4 billion worth of projects at various stages of completion.

These include the upgrading of airport terminals, the Lagos – Kano rail line, the Zungeru hydroelectric power project and fibre cables for our internet infrastructure. Furthermore, less than 3 months ago, Nigeria signed an additional $1billion loan from China for additional rolling stock for the newly constructed rail lines as well as road rehabilitation and water supply projects''.

The Nigerian leader said that the aforementioned projects had demonstrated the high level of consistency and commitment China has shown in boosting its relations with African countries under the umbrella of FOCAC.



''I am optimistic that this Summit will offer new opportunities that would build on these past achievements,” he said, adding that, ''Nigeria will continue to support the FOCAC initiative and also seek to key into the Belt and Road Initiative as an additional Chinese mechanism to build further cooperation in our quest for infrastructural and economic development.”



President Buhari dispelled insinuations about the so-called death trap by Chinese government on developing countries, insisting that Nigeria would be able to re-pay the loans. ''These vital infrastructure projects synchronize perfectly with our Economic Recovery and Growth Plan. Some of the debts incurred are self-liquidating. Our country is able to re-pay loans as and when due in keeping with our policy of fiscal prudence and sound housekeeping,'' he said.

President Trump threatens to review of licences of NBC and CNN

















Once again, U.S. President Donald Trump blasted CNN and NBC News in a tweet criticising NBC’s handling of a story on movie producer, Harvey Weinstein and suggesting a “look at their license”.



Trump has frequently criticised the U.S. news media for what he has said is unfair coverage of him. “I have long criticised NBC and their journalistic standards-worse than even CNN. Look at their license?” he tweeted.


NBC FAKE NEWS, which is under intense scrutiny over their killing the Harvey Weinstein story, is now fumbling around making excuses for their probably highly unethical conduct. I have long criticized NBC and their journalistic standards-worse than even CNN. Look at their license?— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) September 4, 2018



Trump blasted NBC and other TV networks last October, calling their news “Fake” and suggesting he would “challenge” their licenses. Democratic FCC Commissioner Jessica Rosenworcel responded to Trump’s most recent tweet by posting the FCC rules on licensing. “One more time…this is not how it works,” she wrote on Twitter.



The FCC, an independent agency, does not issue licenses to individual networks but to local stations, including those directly owned by broadcasters such as Comcast through NBC. The agency has said the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution “expressly prohibits the commission from censoring broadcast matter” and that its role “in overseeing program content is very limited.”


"Women are better suited to leadership than men are" - MI Abaga says in new interview












Rapper MI Abaga is of the opinion that women make better leaders than men.



He said the reason for this is that women are trained to be responsible from a very young age, whereas it isn't always so with men. As a result, when women get to their late teens, they already know how to navigate life on their own but the men struggle. As a result, they try to lash out at their


We were raised in a society that elevates men and opresses women. Because women are oppressed, by the time they become like 18, 17 years old, they are better suited to leadership than men are.

A woman, from when she's seven years old, her mum is telling her, 'take this money, go to the market, come back, cook food... and this is training that most men don't receive.

So, by the time she gets to university or she's finishing secondary school, a woman knows how to manage her life. But men, we have no idea.

Then we starts dating, but we've been told that we're men. So here's somebody who could do a better job of managing your life, but because she's talking to you and because you feel as a woman she shouldn't do that to you, what do we do, we start to lash out, we start to oppress. All this pain and trauma gets instilled in our society and we carry it on.
