By Oladele Peter Petty traders are often those women and men who sell certain commodities which are predominantly not sold to the ultimate consumer by the formal sector, examples includes fruits, vegetables, pepper, sachet water, bread,  and so on. Petty Traders are highly indispensable in the distribution system providing useful goods to the community especially the lower middle class and the poor. The major problem facing Petty Trading is CAPITAL in the form of loans, which they can’t get from banks.  The Nigerian government under the leadership of President Buhari and his vice Prof. Osinbajo came up with the strategy to fight Hunger, Poverty and Lack of capital by most petty traders; they introduced a Programme called TRADERMONI which is part of the Government Enterprise and Empowerment Programme (GEEP). TraderMoni as a scheme has generated a significant amount of buzz and national conversation: from those who laud its impact to those who view it as politically mot...

Who is Reno Omokri’s next victim? The word fraudster has a ring to it, somehow it sounds a lot nicer than thief. Reno Omokri, unfortunately is both. Yeah I am talking about the same Reno Omokri who claims to be a pastor yet we are yet to find anyone who actually attends his church or service programmes. (PS: the offer still waits for their identification. I dare say he’d be more than willing to push up such a person towards the top of his #RenoMoni fraud pyramid). Much has been said about the fraudulent acts such as profiteering from the sale of books and tee shirts in Leah Sharibu’s name without as much as providing financial details to back up claims. First he allegedly said he transferred the monies made from the tees to her family then realizing the gaffe claimed that the donations were made directly to her father’s account.  On the book front, Reno said “the royalties spent exactly five minutes in his account before they were also transferred to her father”. What the peo...

The Misfortunes of an Errand Boy By Olayinka Williams Reno Omokri’s obsession with the Osinbajo name is no longer news and quite frankly, I think he draws breath and finds a considerable level of solace in either tweeting or posting about the bearer. Should he be blamed? He's a failed assistant to a past president, his reputation is grasping straws and his relevance to the republic and humanity at large is fast dwindling, if I was he, I'd take a jab at anyone and anything to stay on the radar too. Life and its beautiful ironies, isn’t it quite a thing of astonishment that Reno Omokri sees himself sacrosanct enough, a worthy advocate to kick against the policies of the current  administration and an unarguably active Vice President? Reno’s darts must’ve been invented an administration too late. Reno Omokri, the man who has continued to unrepentantly monetize for personal use, the unfortunate Leah Sharibu incident; printing and selling shirts to all who genuinely care ...

A former Jonathan’s media aide who has recently launched an attack on Nigeria’s Vice President has been described as lacking wit and exposing the weakness of his former’s boss’ poorly run government by the Initiative to Save Democracy. In a statement by its newly appointed publicity secretary, Peter Olaleye, the group faulted the call by Reno Omokri that the Vice President should stand up against the President because the President had asked that his Ministers pass correspondences and meeting proposals through the Chief of Staff, Mallam Abba Kyari. The group stated that making such a call did not only show that Mr Omokri lacked an understanding of governance at the Presidential level, but it also reflected the way and manner in which the Jonathan government was run without any institutional practices and order. “We have read Reno Omokri's constant attempt to politicise governance processes, especially his recent tirade at the Vice President. In our view, Omokri has opened hi...

Nigerians who are conversant with social media in February 2014 would easily remember the infamous alias ‘Wendell Simlin’ as it is synonymous with Reno Omokri. While in office as Special Adviser on New Media to President Jonathan, Omokri perpetrated the criminal act of identity theft by circulating emails to journalists and media houses, accusing the then suspended CBN Governor, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, who is now the Emir of Kano. The concocted story tried to link Sanusi with Boko Haram by painting him as a financier of terror using his office to channel funds to insurgents. The lid was blown when recipients of the email began to ask questions which nobody could logically answer. A little nosing around exposed Reno Omokri as the perpetrator of this sinister act but he was using the email address of Wendell Simlin. An investigation by SaharaReporters later revealed that the real Wendell Simlin lives in Hercules, California. Ms. Campbell, the mother of Wendell claimed that she is marr...

Why Jonathan's Social Media aide will never overcome his fraudulent past We wake up each day, count it a blessing and go about our daily activities to earn a living. Unfortunately for Reno Omokri he's faced with the same dilemma the only difference is that of late he's had no job and has taken to social media as consolation.Well he’s not entirely jobless, if you take into account the fact he sold shirts and books in Leah Sharibu’s name, scamming her parents and unsuspecting people. But if he is not up to some old tricks, he is usually eking out a living out of his obsession for none other than the Vice President. Similar to the holy grail or the elixir of life, a day can't go by without the self acclaimed pastor a crony to one of Nigeria's most corrupt governments attempting to take a dig at renowned Prof. Yemi Osinbajo. Who requires that we shed light on the crooked character that once took on the personage of Wendell Simlin? Lamido Sanusi - the Em...

*Nigeria newspapers and the name Osinbajo* By Sunday Akinloye If you are an ardent reader of Nigerian newspapers, you will find that they love the name Osinbajo. They can put it on all their headlines if they have to, my guess, is that they get more clicks whenever the name Osinbajo is in the headline. I wouldn’t be surprised if one Nigeria newspaper comes up with the headline, “Osinbajo watches as Real Madrid beat Barcelona in El Clasico”. That is how these newspapers are wired nowadays. On Thursday, 22 August, my attention was called to a Vanguard newspaper headline on Twitter, “Osinbajo storms in as, Adamu, Shehuri, Kategu, Sylva, Akume take oaths”. The headline was ludicrous to say the least. Not only did the Vice President not “storm in” as claimed by Vanguard, the VP had nothing to do with the swearing-in but Vanguard Newspaper were hell-bent on finding a way to input the name that gave them so much joy. But it is not only Vanguard that is in this trade. Punch newspap...

If I were Okoi Obono-Obla By George Tari If I were Okoi Obono-Obla there were many things I would have done very differently. But Obono-Obla is his own man, a man who wanted power and a man who absolute power corrupted absolutely. Firstly, if I were Obono-Obla, I would have stuck to the mandate of my office instead of over-stepping my boundary and jumping into the jurisdiction of others. Secondly, I would have hearkened to the warnings that came my way that my office was solely designed to investigate and not prosecute. I certainly would not go about blackmailing people and threatening them with the Presidency, when in the real sense, I’m not the President. Thirdly, I wouldn’t embark on a needless media trial by co-opting Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA) and others to sensationlise a case that turns out that he is digging his own grave. Fourthly, If I were Obono-Obla, I would not continue to play judge and jury especially when all the evidences are again...

In this case, the government spend £3bn on building roads. This involves employing workers (previously unemployed) and paying suppliers for raw materials. Initially, GDP rises £3bn In the next period, workers spend part of this extra income – in shops and for transport. The suppliers also employ more workers – creating more employment. This creates an additional economic output of £1bn. Therefore the final increase in GDP is £4bn – from the initial injection of £3bn. In this case, the multiplier effect is 1.33

It’s never too late to do the right thing; I think finally, former President Chief Olusegun Obasanjo appears to understanding this as well as his role as an elder statesman.   On Saturday, he met with Fulani cattle breeders in the Southwest as well as Kogi and Kwara States in order to address the scuffle between the nomadic herders and the resident farmers.  Obasanjo told Gan Allah Fulani Development Association of Nigeria (GAFDAN) that Yorubas wanted unity, peace, harmony, wholesomeness and progress in the region, stressing that the time had come for everybody to acknowledge that “bad things are happening” in the Southwest and which have been attracting bad names to the Fulani in their midst.  This is a clear departure from Obasanjo’s reliance on writing only letters in the past. The former president appears to be putting his money where his mouth is, he finally seems to understand that actions speak louder than words. Meeting face to face with Fulani cattl...
