 Over 25 million phones stolen in one year – FG The Crime Experience and Security Perception Survey report of the National Bureau of Statistics, a Federal Government agency, shows that Nigeria recorded 25.35 million phone theft cases between May 2023 and April 2024. According to the report, this was the most common type of crime within the period under review. The report read, “The number of crimes experienced by individuals in Nigeria was analysed over a period of time. The results show that theft of phones (25,354,417) was the most common crime experienced by individuals, followed by consumer fraud (12,107,210) and assault (8,453,258). However, hijacking of cars (333,349) was the least crime experienced by individuals within the reference period.” It also noted that most phone theft cases occurred either at home or in a public place, and about 90 per cent of such cases were reported to the police.

     Today, being Wednesday, December 11, 2019, I sponsored a Bill for the upgrade of the Federal Polytechnic Oko, Orumba-North to Federal University of Technology Oko.
Undoubtedly, the existence of a sound and robust educational sector in any country is anchored on the availability of viable academic institutions and well trained teachers to impart requisite knowledge. Hence, the need to establish more institutions in our academic sector to continually produce more qualified and globally competitive youths as obtainable in other developed countries all over the world.
The primary objective of this university is to produce qualified graduates with capabilities not only to understand the technological needs of Nigeria as a nation but also to exploit existing technological infrastructure and improve on them to develop new ones.
The university will be supervised by the Federal Ministry of Education through the National University Commission (NUC) which shall be responsible for approving and regulating all academic programmes run by the university, to ensure compliance and provide funds for academic and research programmes, infrastructure and remuneration of employees.
It is my belief that the institution will produce graduates with practical as well as theoretical knowledge of technology and arts so as to bring about quality changes in our educational sector as it would focus on practical teaching and learning innovations.
In view of the need to expand the current admission capacity of our universities, the establishment of the Federal University of Technology Oko, Anambra is not only a timely and apt legislation, but a bill that will show the Ninth Senate’s responsiveness to the needs of our citizens for qualitative education.
When established, the institution will offer full time academic courses in Science and Arts as practiced in institutions like; the Institute of Management Technology, Enugu (IMT), Federal University of Technology Minna (FUTMINNA) and Yaba College of Technology (YABATECH).
It is therefore my expectation that having passed the first reading, the bill will be read the second tim, recommended to the relevant committee for further legislative action and given accelerated passage.
Senator (Dr.) Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah.
Anambra South Senatorial District.

According to Dr Chukwuma during the presentation of the car, he recalled on how Mr Ikechukwu Osakwe all the way from Kano blocked him at the front of his house early in the morning and told him he has a message for him.  Mr Osakwe went on to narrate a dream he had about him, how he saw in the said dream his vehicle manufacturing company known as CAP PLC.

  SSANU, NASU threaten strike over withheld salaries The Joint Action Committee of the Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities and the Non-Academic Staff Union of Educational and Associated Institutions have threatened to disrupt industrial peace in universities should the government fail to release the withheld salaries of members. The salaries were seized by the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari during their strike in 2022. The unions, in a joint letter signed on Friday by the President of SSANU, Muhammed Ibrahim and General Secretary of NASU, Peters Adeyemi, questioned the rationale with which the government released four months withheld salaries to members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities but failed to release the withheld salaries of non-academic staff. The unions noted that they would no longer be able to assure the government of industrial peace in universities should the amounts owed by the government are not released. Earlier, the uni...
