 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).

ANAMBRA FINANCIALS: WHAT SOLUDO ACTUALLY SAID ON ARISE TV THIS MORNING 

"The audited account of Anambra State as at 31st December, 2021 is published, anybody can access it. You can get it, you see our assets, liabilities and so on. And then, of course, as at the last date. What you now have to do is between the audited account as of the end of the year and as at the day of handover. You know if there were further liabilities and all of that. But, in terms of the audited account certified and published already, yea, everybody knows that the State's finances are not quite robust to put it mildly. The debt probably is in the range of hundred and something billion. In terms of debt. And then, cash, from what I saw in the end of it, a few hundred millions. Say 300 to 400 million Naira. That's what the state has, I mean that's the base. But we are still going to have the reconciliations and all the accounts from January to the date that we took over and would put it out there"...

Part of the values we must mainstream is that of information probity. People must learn to report information without distortions that suit their mischief.

An interview that was streamed live and recorded for future retrieval cannot be instantly reproduced with clear misquotations of the subject matter.

For the records, the understated quote circulating across social media is not just embellished, it is a misrepresentation of the actual words of Prof. Charles Chukwuma Soludo. Read below:

"In terms of debt I inherited, it runs into hundreds of billions of Naira. In that of cash, we met about 300 million Naira. Let's not talk about it. Our treasury is funny. But I hope we shall make money henceforth to help us fulfill our promises for infrastructure and development of the state. But in terms of what I met in our coffers, my brother, it's pathetic. Please let us not go there. God will help us" - - this outrightly distorted. 

Again, we have extracted the exact cut of Soludo's response to the question on the Financials of of the State as handed over to him by his Predecessor. You may wish to go through the video below to glean his direct and undistorted reaction on the issue. 

We must shun sensating or distorting serious issues for the sake of posterity.

  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...
