The Lagos State Environmental Protection Agency, LASEPA, has shutdown at least 250 organisations, including industries, worship places and night clubs as a result of noise pollution and other environmental infractions over the last three months across the metropolis.
The action is part of efforts by the Lagos State Government to achieve an improved, safer and sustainable environment in the State.
Babatunde Ajayi, LASEPA General Manager, disclosed this during the Agency’s one-day capacity-building training for its accredited consultants across the state in conjunction with the Climate Transition Academy, held in the Central Business Development Area, Ikeja, Lagos.
Ajayi said LASEPA has embarked on a lot of reforms geared towards achieving a noiseless, cleaner, safer and pollution-free Lagos. He said that the training was to update the consultants’ knowledge of current trends in addressing global climate change challenges and other environmental problems for sustainable development.
He, therefore, charged the accredited consultants to support the State Government’s bid to deliver a safer, healthier and sustainable environment through the adoption of Environment Social Governance (ESG) global model in tackling identified environmental challenges.
According to him: “The training of LASEPA accredited consultants has become necessary so as to update their knowledge and increase their capacities in the application of the global standard model in managing environmental issues, especially climate change problem and their associated greenhouse gas emissions.
“In achieving our ministerial mandate, the agency would strengthen its enforcement measures to ensure compliance with government regulations towards achieving a cleaner and sustainable environment in line with the T.H.E.M.E.S development agenda of the state.”
The Executive Director, Carbon Limits Nigeria, James Ogunleye, who spoke on behalf of other facilitators, stated that the programme would help to expose LASEPA-accredited consultants and broaden their knowledge of current global practices in a sustainable environment.
Ogunleye, noted that there was a great departure from the old practice of consultants just knowing Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), Environmental Audit Report (EAR), and Environmental Impact Analysis (EIA) to qualify as a consultant.
Gov. Yusuf Solicits Establishment of Power Plant, Sickle Cell Centre in Kano
President, Dangote Conglomerate, Aliko Dangote has pledged to support social policies and human development initiative of Government, targeted at ameliorating the economic burden in Kano.
Dangote made the pledge when he met with Governor Abba Yusuf at Government House Kano, Friday. He acknowledged that the common man could hardly survive the present state of inflation in the nation.
Specifically, Dangote promised to support Kano to improve health, education and empowerment of the less privileged struggling to live.
“We are here, first of all to congratulate you on your victory at the Supreme Court. I want to assure you of our support throughout your administration, maybe not only four years but eight years.
“Kano is home, even though the MC addressed me as the richest black man, but you can address me as Kano indigene. I am your subject and you can always call on me for cooperation to see how we can develop Kano.
“And going forward, we really need to see how we can develop areas of health, education, empowerment, how do we assist the Government because Government cannot do it alone”.
In a statement issued by the Governor’s Spokesperson, Sanusi Tofa, he said Dangote further added: “I want to assure you that we would continue to support you not because I am from Kano but because I know your intentions are good.
“You have the mandate of the people and I know that it is very difficult for any human being to clap with the two hands now. For now you will be the right hand, and we would be your left hand, together we shall clap.
“So be rest assured that we would support you and support your administration and we want to tell you that we would continue to pray for your success because your success is ours. I am sorry for coming this late because I was supposed to have been here before now but I am traveling a lot.
“Not that we took the Government for granted because I really want to have enough time to come and tell you that we believe in your administration and we are ready to support you”. Dangote assured.
On his part, Governor Yusuf Yusuf solicited Dangote’s support for the establishment of an independent power plant to revive the ailing industries and boost the economic strength of the State.
Similarly, the Governor told Dangote that Kano dearly needs the establishment of sickle cell hospital to provide free medication for the patients.
Besides, the Governor pleaded with the business tycoon for the completion of the gigantic projects initiated by Dangote Foundation which include Accident and Emergency ward, Surgical and Theatre complex and maternity/ pediatric building all in Murtala Muhamnad Specialists Hospital.
He noted that as a proud indigene of the State, Alhaji Dangote is capable and willing to execute as many projects as possible that is why ” I am using the opportunity to solicit and appeal for a lot from him for the people of the state”.
Governor Yusuf added, “I want to make a passionate appeal to you to extend your hands of assistance by completing the gigantic projects initiated by your foundation which include Accident and Emergency ward, Surgical and Theatre complex and maternity/ Pediatric building all in Murtala Muhamnad Specialists Hospital.”
“In the area of infrastructural development, the Governor expressed the need for Dangote to assist in the provision of modern roads construction, Housing, community development as well as human capital development among others.
“While appreciating the kind gesture of Aliko Dangote in the area of education and health care development, especially in the eradication of the poliomyelitis, the Governor gave the assurance that whatever form of support given, it will be used judiciously.”
The Federal Government has appealed to the organized Labour, to reconsider its planned Nationwide industrial action, noting that it is sincerely committed to fulfilling the terms of the Memorandum of Understanding MOU signed with Labour.
Minister of Labour (State) Hon. Nkiruka Onyejiocha who made the appeal at a crowded press briefing on Thursday February 9 2024 in Abuja also assured of Federal Government’s commitment to open and constructive communication with the Organized Labour, for the purpose of fostering positive labour relations ,as well as ensure a supportive and conducive working environment for workers.
She emphasised the need for patience and understanding, adding that negotiations most times pass through a gradual process, with resolutions and agreements unfolding In stages
“The Federal Government is assuring Nigerians of its continued commitment to addressing labour concerns and fulfilling all agreements so as move forward together .
“Government will continue to leverage on the principles of social dialogue, valuing the inputs of our social partners, with the goal of creating a better Nigeria for all.
“The Federal Government will ensure the complete implementation of the Memorandum of Understanding entered into with the organized labour'” the Labour Minister stated.
It will be recalled that the Organized Labour, had two days ago, issued a 14-day Nationwide strike notice, citing Government’s reluctance in observing the terms of earlier MOU as a major reason.
Hope of rapid development for communities which accommodate power generating companies, has been rekindled as President Bola Tinubu signed the Electricity Act (Amendment) Bill, 2024, into law.
The bill, which was passed by the House of Representatives on July 27, 2023, and the Senate on November 14, 2023, was sponsored by Babajimi Benson, who represents Ikorodu Federal Constituency of Lagos State.
Ajuri Ngalele, presidential spokesman, explained that the Electricity Act (Amendment) Bill, 2024, seeks to address the development and environmental concerns of host communities.
It sets aside five percent of the actual annual operating expenditures of power generating companies (GENCOs) from the preceding year for the development of their respective host communities.
The Bill further provides that the funds set aside for the development of host communities will be received, managed, and administered for infrastructure development in the host communities by a reputable Trustee/Manager to be jointly appointed by the respective GENCO and their host community.
The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) in the 19 Northern States and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) has advised President Bola Tinubu to settle down to enable him address mirage of problems confronting Nigerians.
The Association noted that the ongoing economic hardship as well as increasing security challenges across the country have made life unbearable for ordinary Nigerians.
In a statement on Friday by the Secretary General of Northern CAN, Elder Sunday Oibe advised President Bola Tinubu to settle down to tackle the challenges so that the country could bounce back.
It identified the continued decline in the value of the naira and the seeming inability of the government to address the situation which has completely weakened the purchasing power of ordinary Nigerians.
The Northern CAN also frowned at increasing cases of insecurity in the country, saying, “The situation is further compounded by escalating insecurity occasioned by rampant killings and kidnapping for ransom.
“Government must take urgent steps to address the depressing economic and escalating security situation in the country.
However, the CAN called on Nigerians to support the present administration to overcome the eight years of “calamity and retrogression of the failed administration of former President Mohammadu Buhari”.
Northern CAN noted with concern, the inauguration of a security outfit by a tribal group, Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore in Nasarawa state.
“We find the establishment of the security outfit by a group which some of its members are being accused of banditry and kidnapping across the country very disturbing.
“Northern CAN wishes to state in strong terms that allowing any ethno-cultural group to set up a security outfit, is an invitation to anarchy.
“In the interest of peace and security, government should not handle this issue with kid gloves. No ethnic group should be allowed to form an exclusive security outfit”.
“We find the establishment of the security outfit by a group which some of its members are being accused of banditry and kidnapping across the country very disturbing.
“Northern CAN wishes to state in strong terms that allowing any ethno-cultural group to set up a security outfit, is an invitation to anarchy.
“In the interest of peace and security, government should not handle this issue with kid gloves. No ethnic group should be allowed to form an exclusive security outfit”.
On the issue of relocating FAAN and some Departments of CBN from Abuja to Lagos, the statement said, “Northern CAN also wish to comment on the plan relocation of the headquarters of the Federal Airport Authority (FAAN) and some departments of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) from Abuja to Lagos.
“Since the announcement of the planned relocation, there has been so much noise from some individuals and groups who are opposed to the policy, especially, from the northern part of the country.
“Several individuals and groups in the north, particularly, the Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF), the Northern Elders Forum (NEF), Northern Senators as well as several northern groups have been agitating against relocation.
“It is unfortunate that we introduce ethnic and regional sentiments in a harmless policy that is meant to streamline operations and make the agencies more effective and reduce cost. We should learn to look at government policies from an objective point of view rather than from regional and tribal perspectives.
“We call on Nigerians to support the present administration to overcome the eight years of calamity and retrogression of the failed administration of former President Mohammadu Buhari.”
Thousands of Kano residents on Thursday, February 8, 2024, took to the streets to register their displeasure with the prevalent harsh economic situation in the country.
This is even as the acclaimed richest man on African Continent on Friday, February 9, stormed the ancient city to be part of ways to assuage frayed nerves.
The protesters, in their thousands, marched through popular streets and areas such as Bachirawa, katsina road ,Rijiyar lemu, Kurna, Fegge, and decried the excruciating economic situation with its attendant high costs of essential commodities .
They called on the authorities both at the State and Federal levels to take urgent measures to salvage the trend before things get out of hand.
Malam Usman Bello, spokesperson for the protesters, lamented that the high cost of living, occasioned by some difficult Government policies have visited untold hardship and suffering on the masses of kano.
Malam Bello said being that it was the people that voted in President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, they are equally calling on him to revisit some of his policies which have been found out to be anti people,adding that they can not continue to pretend that all is well, hence their resolve to embark on a peaceful protest march .
Alhaji Dangote, himself scion of kano, arrived the commercial hub of the North early afternoon on Friday and immediately proceeded on a parley with Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf and other top Government functionaries, as well as stakeholders of the state .
Although as at the time of reporting. details of their meeting were not known, but it is widely believed that the harsh economic situation and its possible back-lash on the ever volatile State, as well as means of calming frayed nerves will top the agenda.

Ondo State Chapter of the Nigerian Medical Association, NMA, has given the State Government seven days ultimatum to implement the approved hazard allowance and address other critical challenges facing health sector.
This is the highlight of Communique issued at the end of an Ordinary General Meeting of the Association, lin Akure.
In the communique signed by the State Chairman, Dr Omosehin Adeyemi-Osowe and the State Secretary, Dr Adeayo Omotehinse, Ondo NMA noted with concern the continuous shortage of manpower and modern medical equipment at various State hospitals.
Dr Adeyemi-Osowe who read the Communique, listed other issues as failure to pay members the hazard allowance, low employment entry point and poor salary structure compare to other neighbouring states.
The NMA Chairman who lamented that doctors in the state are still earning ridiculous five thousand naira as hazard allowance, said there are only 22 resident doctors at UNIMED teaching hospital compared to the previous figure of 150 resident doctors before.
He said the decaying condition of the state health sector, has forced many doctors out of the state service while new ones are not interested in working with the Ondo State government.
“The congress also resolved to give an ultimatum of seven days to the Government of Ondo State to implement the approved hazard allowance. This being the lowest hanging fruits.
“That failure to implement this after the expiration of the seven days, the relative industrial harmony in the state health sector shall no longer be guaranteed. The Congress shall reconvene after the expiration of the stated period to chart a way forward.
“The OGM enjoins the state government to resolve the issues of non-availability of equipment at some critical units in our teaching hospital UNIMEDTHC (The CT scan is non-functional for over 12months, no ventilators at the ICU) etc.
“The Congress would like to plead with opinion leaders, religious leaders, traditional rulers, stakeholders and all Ondo state residents interested in a healthy Ondo state to prevail on our government to declare state of emergency in Ondo state health sector with the aim of proffering effective measures and solutions to the sector’s numerous challenges to achieving a healthy, prosperous and peaceful Ondo state.”
The Lagos State Police Command has announced the rescue of a toddler abducted and sold by a house girl employed to take care of her.
The baby, allegedly sold by the maid for N800,000, has however, been found in a market in the Shomolu area of Lagos State and reunited with her distraught parents.
An X user, #Dannysleek, in a now-deleted tweet, had on Saturday raised an alarm that a maid hired through an agency absconded with the baby.
The maid identified as Ruth Okezie from Anambra State, reportedly absconded with the baby from the home in Shomolu around 2 am on Saturday.
After the report went viral on social media, the maid was said to have been found in Ikorodu, without the baby, where she confessed to selling the baby for N800,000.
In a post on his X handle on Monday morning, the Lagos Police Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, disclosed that the baby was rescued by the police after she was abandoned in Alade Market in the Shomolu area of the state.
He wrote, “Due to intense manhunt and pressure from the police, the buyer in the early hours of today abandoned the baby in Alade Market, Shomolu. The baby was promptly rescued by the police.
I don’t know if you still remember this man. The man who, even though he had occupied a high office in our Country, still, publicly, exhibits his crude character; the man who has just chewed more than he can swallow by completely rubbishing, without any proof of evidence, Nigeria’s Court of Appeal, its Leadership, its Judges, and deliberately painted, especially, the character of one of Nigeria’s most accomplished female Judges with tar.
He goes by the name, Elisha Abbo and, sadly, prefixes that name with “Senator.” Not a few people, since he was removed from office, and remembering a couple of his actions now refer to him as “Extinguished Senator.”
If you don’t remember him, you are not to be blamed. You shouldn’t worry. He does not deserve the honour of being remembered, especially, by those who care about character, depth, self- respect, and self-control. People like Abbo, whose recklessness when they talk stink to high heavens, and who are usually in the news for one embarrassing behavior or the other are, for sanity’s sake, better forgotten than remembered.
However, for the purpose of this write-up, bear with me for a brief re-introduction of the man when he chooses, which has worrisomely become frequent, is a bull in a china shop.
Elisha Abbo was the Senator who represented Adamawa North until he was sacked by the Court of Appeal after he was sworn-in for a second term in office.
Not a few people were shocked that Abbo was allowed to become a Senator in 2019. Sure, he won the election then, but he didn’t deserve to be sworn-in. He stripped himself of that privilege when he fell, with his eyes open, from the olympian height to the gutter. It was when he, as a Senator-elect, did the unbelievable. The unprecedented. And should have quietly stood down as a Senator-elect.
Here’s what he did.
While waiting to be sworn-in, Abbo gave notice of his character. He shamed the hallowed Chambers before he even stepped into it. While his colleagues were preparing for the big day, the day they would be sworn-in as Distinguished Senators, Abbo went to an adult shop in Abuja to buy a s*x toy where he exhibited the trait of a bull in a china shop.
We never really got to know what the problem was. Or what transpired between the then Senator-elect and the sales girl. Perhaps, they were haggling over the price. Or the size. But before one could say jack, Senator-elect Abbo had descended on the poor girl. He went physical. The scandal was too much. Its smell rose to high heavens.
That behavior earned him days at a conventional Court, as well as the public Court. In the public Court, outraged Nigerians trounced and trashed him. But finally to everybody’s dismay, Abbo was sworn-in as a Senator even after some, rightly, scandalized women protested.
Initially, Abbo had no regrets over the incident. When the Senate set up a Panel, headed by Senator Oluremi Tinubu to investigate the adult-shop incident, Abbo insulted and talked down on her. Now, the woman she treated with so much disrespect, then, is today, Nigeria’s First Lady.
Later, Abbo apologized, allegedly, on the insistence of his political mentor, Atiku Abubakar, the man whose party, the PDP, Abbo later ditched for the APC.
I hate to think how decent people in other climes looked at Nigeria after Abbo was sworn-in as a Senator. For, such could have happened only in Nigeria.
In more civilized climes, in climes which care about the character of their leaders, especially, one going to the Senate to make laws, nobody would swear Abbo in as a Senator. He should have stood down on his own, and apologized for his disgraceful behavior.
In the aftermath, a number of people blamed the Courts for sparing Abbo. Many women felt let down.
Many were ashamed on Abbo’s behalf, and on behalf of Nigeria, that a man who went physical with a sales girl in an adult shop was sworn-in as a Senator. They felt it put a tar on the high profile office of a Senator. But as they say, it is what it is.
So, how did Abbo perform as a Senator?
I may have missed it, but I didn’t hear much of Abbo’s accomplishments in the Senate. And I didn’t quite hear much of him until he played to the gallery during the 2023 Presidential campaign. He resigned as a member of the Tinubu/Shettima Campaign team to which he was appointed because, according to him, as a Christian, he couldn’t quite campaign for a Muslim- Muslim ticket. When he resigned, he enjoyed a few days of fame which quickly fizzled out because the APC Presidential campaign Team pointedly ignored him.
But this man seems to enjoy his minutes of fame before he descends into the abyss. He clings to straws when he is drowning. He picks on innocent people. After the sales girl, after Senator Tinubu, after Tinubu/Shettima, his next target was the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio. Sacked by the Appeal Court from the Senate, Abbo addressed a Press Conference and heaped his woes on Akpabio. He said it was Akpabio who engineered his sack from the Senate because he was not in support of Akpabio’s aspiration to lead the Senate. A couple of days later, Abbo apologized to Akpabio, and pleaded that he was a victim of misinformation. He was forgiven.
But Abbo, it seems, suffers from a diarrhea of the mouth. Those who know him allege he talks before he thinks. Perhaps, they are right because, Abbo has spoken again before thinking.
On 1st February, 2024, he went to town with outlandish allegations against Judges of the second highest Court in the land. The attack was unprovoked. And unprecedented.
And why?
A three-man Panel of the Court of Appeal threw him out of the Senate many weeks ago. But on February 1, Abbo suddenly realized he was no longer a Senator, and descended on the Court and its Judges.
At a press conference, he went overboard. He swam in the gutter and picked gutter words. He painted the Court of Appeal in tar. He publicly dismissed all the Judges of the Court as corrupt. He rubbished all the judgments given under the Presidency of Honourable Justice Monica Dongban-Mensem. He called her corrupt. A bribe taker. He alleged that under her, the Appeal Court has become a bazaar of sorts where justice goes to the highest bidder. He said the Justices usually send their children and cronies to those (politicians) who have cases against them for “deals”. He accused them of something comparable to the dirty old saying: “money for hand, back for ground.”
Elisha Abbo
After dragging the Court and its President, he reserved a special treatment for the Honourable Justice Chioma Nwosu-Iheme.
The Imo State-born Nwosu-Iheme, a no-nonsense Judge, has just been elevated to the Supreme Court. Nominated and confirmed along with 10 others, and waiting to be sworn-in, Abbo appealed to President Bola Tinubu to withdraw her confirmation and elevation to the Supreme Court.
Why?
Nwosu-Iheme was the Chairman of the Appeal Court Panel which sacked Abbo from the Senate.
So, Abbo dragged her, a woman he does not really know, and would never know; a woman whose achievements and accomplishments tower above Abbo; the first, if not the only female Judge in Nigeria to earn a PhD; an absolutely, according to not a few people, fearless and courageous Judge.
It is difficult to know why Abbo, specifically, picked on Justice Iheme-Nwosu. She was not the only Judge on the Panel. There were three of them. She could not have lorded it over the other two. Or forced them to sack Abbo. They were at liberty to disagree with the judgement. Isn’t that why there are minority or dissenting judgements when the Judges don’t agree on a decision? Nwosu-Iheme’s only crime is that she was the one who read the judgment. Isn’t it amazing that Abbo was so ignorant he didn’t know Nwosu-Iheme was in no position to influence the judgement which threw him out of the Senate?; that the judgement was a collective decision, unanimous?
And here is the most ridiculous.
Abbo alleged that the judgement which was read to sack him was not what was originally written; meaning that the original judgement was substituted. He said he has a recorded version of the judgement read in Court, and is in possession of the “correct version”. He said they were different. He did not say how and where. So, will he please avail us with both.
My elementary understanding is that in appeals, not everything written is read out in Court else it would last for hours. Only the introduction and the decision are read. The rest is contained in the Certified True Copy, CTC, for interested parties to pick.
So, why did Abbo descend on Justice Iheme-Nwosu?
The only reason I can adduce is envy. He doesn’t understand Justice Nwosu-Iheme’s rich resumè. He doesn’t understand how she made an all-round success of her life. Perhaps, Abbo abhors successful women. Senator Oluremi Tinubu. Honourable Justice Monica Dongban-Mensem. Honourable Justice Chioma Nwosu-Iheme. Let’s leave the poor sales girl here. In that order, Abbo has tackled and ran them down.
But nobody should blame Abbo. For too long, Nigerians have allowed a number of unscrupulous politicians to destroy everything we hold sacred. Every of our values. They destroyed our polity. They destroyed our youths. They destroyed our culture. They took away our innocence and our self-esteem. They reduced us to a state of helplessness and hopelessness.
They have so defamed and desecrated our Judiciary that our Judges, our Judicial Officers, most of them, decent, brilliant and hard working, have been reduced to nothing. They have degraded our Judiciary and made it a laughing stock within and outside the country.
When politicians win a case, they praise the Judiciary for being the hope of the common man, the pillar of democracy. But when they lose, they descend on it and dismiss it as corrupt.
I have always wondered why Judicial Officers don’t defend themselves; why they don’t sue those who defame and libel them; and why the Nigeria Bar Association, NBA, keeps quiet, and does nothing in the face of such brazen and reckless allegation against Judicial Officers like Abbo’s. In one fell swoop, Abbo rubbished the Court of Appeal.
When Olumide Akpata was the NBA President, he tackled the then Governor of Ebonyi State, Dave Umahi, when he tried to rubbish a Federal Judge. Umahi was forced to apologize.
Question is: Why is everybody letting people like Abbo get away with shaming our Judicial Officers before the world?
Abbo’s allegations are weighty. He should be invited to provide proof. He who alleges must prove. He should provide evidence and make public the names of the Judges who send their children and cronies to collect money for them from politicians. He should provide the names of Judges who had ever asked him for gratification or asked any of his colleagues for same.Otherwise, here are what Abbo owes:
A public apology to the President of the Appeal Court, the Honourable Justice Monica Dongban-Mensem.
A public apology to the Honourable Justice Chioma Nwosu-Iheme, Supreme Court Justice-designate.
A public apology to the Judges of the Appeal Court.
If he fails, Senator Abbo should be sued for everything he has got. That could earn him a seat where he should have been sitting on after his scandalous outing and public exhibition at that adult shop in Abuja.
As they say, the ball is in his court. Your proof “Extinguished Senator”, your proof.
