Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, says if masquerades were well packaged, dressing and undressing of the masquerades could provide 1000 jobs for some young Nigerian men. According to TheCable, Lai said this while speaking at the sectoral debate of the Federal House of Representative in Abuja today May 3rd;

“Most states today have more than one festival a year, but the packaging and lack of capacity has not enabled them to make the most out of these festivals. There’s a particular masquerade in the south east, it takes 100 people to dress him, another 100 people to undress him. If this masquerade is well-packaged, it can provide employment in one week for more than 1000 young men.

These are some of the untapped potentials. I worked in the airport for 10 years, and I know that if you want your passport stamped as a foreigner, you slip $100 into your passport.

No tourist would come back to a country where he has to bribe immigration to enter. No tourist would come to a country where, when he leaves immigration, he enters a ‘one-chance’ taxi or ‘one-chance’ bus. It’s a holistic problem and these are all contained in the national tourism master plan, which I would make available to the house. We must make a difference between tourist sites and tourist attractions; what we have in Nigeria are tourist sites.

They are not tourist attractions. You need infrastructure to convert a tourist site to a tourist attraction. If you don’t have infrastructure, it would always remain a tourist site, In Cross Rivers reserve park, Nigeria has the oldest forest in the whole world.

It is the oldest in terms of biodiversity, and we have this very rare, white-mane gorilla in that area, but because my people in Cross River have decided to turn them to bush meat, they have now escaped.”he said

Stop Press! Jesam Michael, AAS Investors Are Aggrieved 

Court Remands Prince Humble, Micheal Okoh, Prof Oma, Others in Kuje As Jesam’s Legal Team Clears The Air (Video)

The lingering allegation of cyberbullying, cyber stalking against Humble Prince Etang, Donald Micheal Ubi, Dennis Okoi and Michael Okoh at the Federal High Court has been adjourned till May, 22nd and the accused remanded at Kuje prison.
Justice Joyce Abdumalik who was saddled with the responsibility of  hearing the case filed by the IGP on behalf of Jesam Michael against the accused ordered the remand of the accused in the Kuje Correctional Centre until May 22nd, when the case is slated to come up for hearing and bail application verdict.
It would be recalled that the CEO of Afriq Arbitrage System, Jesam  Michael, was the  complainant at the Federal High Court, Abuja. Michael  had petitioned the Inspector General of Police (IGP), accusing Humble Prince Eta, Donald Michael, Fifeyin Awajumo and Michael Okoh of cyberbullying and cyber stalking.
He alleged that the five individuals circulated some messages against him on Facebook and WhatsApp in April where the accused who were never investors of the company  threatened him, his family, workers and put up several incriminating lies against his person. They were picked up by the police where some shocking discovery was unearthed.
Meanwhile, the legal team of Jesam Michael and Afriq Arbiritage System, Barrister Obeten revealed that justice will be served. He also cleared the air on the alleged assault of Maxwell Opara by his client. He said his action is tantamount to contempt of court as a lawyer does not have the right to judge a case he is involved in. He admitted that his actions are strange to the legal profession and that cases are not won on social media but in court.

Recently, a popular Nollywood actress Shan George was defrauded of her N3.6m from her account and the expression of her distress and frustration was best imagined on her social media page as she cried physically for help. Now imagine a scenario where a CEO was defrauded of a whooping sum of $87m belonging to investors from different parts of the world! How would you feel if you were in the CEO’s shoes?

 

Advertisment

That best explained the pains, anger and annoyance of Jesam Michael the CEO of AFRIQ ARBITRAGE SYSTEM and the thousands of investors across the 540 countries, states and provinces of the world whose source of livelihood was allegedly stolen by Abayomi Oluwasesan who has openly confessed to the heinous crime both at the police and a reputable court of law.

As if that was not enough, certain disgruntled elements namely Humble Prince Eta, Donald Michael, Fifeyin Awajumo and Michael Okoh started a campaign of calumny of cyberbullying and cyber stalking against an aggrieved CEO and his investors. Like paid salesmen, they fabricated falsehoods to change the narrative about Abayomi.

 

 

Interestingly, emerging facts from the accused reveal that they were not investors of AAS. That explains the anger and annoyance of Investors of AAS when a well known controversial legal practitioner Maxwell Opara was trying to doctor the truth with an erroneous narrative about the unfortunate incident. Besides, how can a lawyer who knows quite well that the matter is in a reputable court of law pass judgement in an ongoing case he is involved in by calling the accused victims of the saga? Truth be told, his utterance and actions are like a man threading the lion’s den.
