Okoh Cautions Against Distraction Of Uju Kennedy, Minister of Women Affairs

Okoh Cautions Against Distraction Of Uju Kennedy, Minister of Women Affairs

A renown human right activist and APC stalwart in Abia state, Chief Chidiebere Okoh, has called for an end to the repeated attempts of some vested interests to distract the workaholic and performing Minister of Women Affairs, Mrs Uju Kennedy-Ohanenye over trumped up allegations for singular decision to be a patriotic Nigerian over matters of National interest. It is now obvious that the Minister of Women Affairs is  being victimised by certain cliques within the government as a result of her refusal to approve a $500 million loan request from the World Bank.

Revisiting 134% Increase In Minimum Wage (70k): Ajaero, Osifo, Organized Labour Living And Leaving To Fight Another Day.

Revisiting 134% Increase In Minimum Wage (70k): Ajaero, Osifo, Organized Labour Living And Leaving To Fight Another Day.

Joe Igbokwe in the service of his master decided perhaps without deep research to do the greatest disservice to the present watch. In threatening the Igbo in Lagos and across the Country, Citizen Joe Igbokwe has forgotten that hunger and poverty are indiscriminate of Region, Religion and ethnicity. He has…

Bin Abbas visits Dakar, Senegal to strengthen Nigeria’s youth agenda.

By Comr Amos Kalu ABUJA: "Africa has the youngest population in the world, with 70% of sub-Saharan Africa under the age of 30. Such a high number of young people is an opportunity for the continent’s growth – but only if these new generations are fully empowered to realise their best potential. It is especially important that young people are included in decision making and given appropriate opportunities for work and to innovate.   "Involving young people in politics and society is not merely a question of inclusion, but one that is vital for economic growth, innovation, peace and security.…
