 ‘Our Businesses Are Dying,’ Motor Parts Dealers Lament Dollar Scarcity People who own cars or run a transport business will attest to the persistent cost of maintaining their cars. The problem of dollar exchange and sourcing for the currency to carry out export activities by Nigerian motor parts importers is currently biting hard across the country. Infact, most Nigerian motor parts importers are grappling to survive even in the Federal Capital Territories as some of the markets have lost their boom. Motor parts importers have lost their credit worthiness before their foreign suppliers who formerly gave them goods on credit. The prices of automobile engines and other motor parts have risen at an alarming rate as the naira has continued to lose its value. The naira is trading at N410.89 per dollar at the Central Bank of Nigeria rate, while it is trading around N572 at the unofficial market, but the more serious challenge is the supply of the dollar. The scarcity has led to a spike in p

Internet Fraudsters and EFCC's Redemptive Mission  By Dele Oyewale. Every arrest of a suspected internet fraudster by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, is headline- grabbing.  For the truly patriotic Nigerian, who desires a better identity and image for the nation, such arrests are healthy and commendable.  Nigeria is a nation of hard- working,   decent and resourceful individuals and every enterprise of deception and impersonation must be smashed to smithereens.  Besides, victims of internet fraud, across the world, deserve justice and every arrest of their robbers, calls for celebration!  This is just one divide of opinions about such arrests. .

PHANTOM MASSACRE AT LEKKI TOLL GATE 2.  Today marks the first anniversary of the phantom massacre at Lekki Toll Gate in Lagos, which was the culmination of an otherwise peaceful protest that was later hijacked by hoodlums. At earlier press conferences, I had called the reported massacre at the toll gate the first massacre in the world without blood or bodies. One year later, and despite ample opportunities for the families of those allegedly killed and those alleging a massacre to present evidence, there has been none: No bodies, no families, no convincing evidence, nothing. Where are the families of those who were reportedly killed at the toll gate? Did they show up at the Judicial Panel of Inquiry? If not, wh

THE $496M TUCANO FIGHTER JETS WERE BOUGHT TO FIGHT BOKO HARAM NOT BANDITS-ARMY.[PHOTO].

More facts have emerged on why the Armed Forces have yet to deploy their full arsenal against bandits who have dominated the North-West and parts of the North-Central geopolitical zones. The PUNCH reliably learnt on Monday that the Armed Forces told the National Assembly, through its committees, that the agreement signed with the Government of the United States was that the A-29 Super Tucano fighter jets procured from the country would be deployed against terrorists and insurgents, and not bandits. Several sources in the National Assembly, who are in the know of the development, said the complaints by the service chiefs led to the recent demand by the Senate and the House of Representatives that bandits should be designated as terrorists. The PUNCH had reported that the Federal Government in February 2018 placed an order for 12 A-29 Super Tucano aircraft at a cost of $496m. The lawmaker said, “Let me tell you the truth. We once asked the Armed Forces why they had not deployed the Tucan
