I have no reason to quit PDP for now – Jonathan

-


Former President Goodluck Jonathan says for now, he has no reason to quit the People’s Democratic Party.
He was yesterday reacting to online publication that he had resigned from the PDP and quit politics.
His spokesman, Ikechukwu Eze, yesterday described the news as fake and a calculated attempt  to rubbish Jonathan.
He said: “For the  avoidance of doubt,  Dr. Jonathan has no reason, at this time, to resign his membership of PDP,  the party under which platform he became Deputy Governor,  Governor,  Vice President and President.
“Those who derive pleasure in spreading fake information had better occupy themselves with more productive endeavours that are obviously more  relevant to nation building.
“Obviously,  this is a fabrication borne out of mischief as the publishers of the fake story claimed that the former president  made the statement while being  interviewed by Nigeria News Agency, (NNA).  There is absolutely no way the former president could have spoken to a non-existent news agency, as none in the country goes by that name.”

The Chairman of the University of Abuja Teaching Hospital (AUTH) branch of the Medical And Health Workers Union of Nigeria (MHWUN), Comr. Steve Oricha, has said the N30,000 new minimum wage approved by the Federal Government will not change the lives of workers. Comr. Oricha, who spoke with our reporter in Gwagwalada yesterday, said although the implementation of the new minimum was a good thing, it would not help the workers. He said, “Personally, I don’t think government has done workers any favour by introducing the N30,000 minimum wage.” He said labour unions had demanded for N56,000 and that for government to agree to pay N30,000, according to him, would not address the welfare challenges of Nigerian workers. He said when the minimum wage was fixed at N18,000, exchange rate was N170 to a dollar, and that today, a dollar exchanged for N350, and “so the N30,000 will not make any difference in the lives of workers.”  Oricha said the country had not been abl...

Ganduje offers Emir Sanusi 3 options

The creation of additional emirates in Kano State on Wednesday may not be the last turbulence coming the way of the Emir of Kano Muhammadu Sanusi II, as an ongoing probe by the state government’s anti-corruption agency could lead to charges being filed against the monarch . Sanusi’s status as the only first class emir in the state was whittled when the state government balkanized the emirate, carving out four new emirates and appointing first class emirs to rule them. The exercise which lasted only two days, fuelled speculations that the government was going after the emir over his rumoured support for the opposition during the recently concluded governorship election. The fresh investigation by the Kano State Public Complaints and Anti-Corruption Commission as well as the bid to appoint new first class emirs by the state assembly kick-started almost simultaneously last week. A source in the commission, who craved for anonymity, yesterday informed our correspondent that the on...
