Abdul Azeez Usman (Jigawa North East) Sen. Joshua Dariye (Plateau Central) Sen. Hope Uzodimma (Imo West) PRINTED BY NATIONAL ASSEMBLY PRESS. ABUJA 29 Tuesday, 19th July,2011 18 The Senate Notes that the federal government of Nigeria embarked on the privatization and commercialization of federal public enterprises through the enactment of privatization and commercialization Act No. 25 of 1988 , Bureau of Public Enterprises Act No. 78 of 1993 and Public Enterprises (privatization and commercialization) Act of 1999; Recognising that the primary and fundamental purpose of privatization by the federal government is to divest and free the subsidies that were paid into the operations of the enterprises, so as to fund better the provision of critical and crucial infrastructure; Aware that the expected consequences of the process is to also enhance the performance, increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the enterprises to produce goods and services for economic development and growth of the country; Fully aware that successful Core Investors are to be formidable and experienced groups with capabilities and capacities for adding value to enterprises and making the operate profitably in the face of international competition .Hence , the Core Investor must possess the technical know- how in relation to the activities they wish to invest, possessthe financial muscle to turn around the fortune of the enterprises in the short /medium/ long term and possess the management know-how to run the business profitably in a competitive environment where the market forces dictate the businessclimate; Acknowledging that, amongst the expected conditions for divestment of government equities are technology transfer , the future development of the enterprises as perceived by the investors, the funding arrangements for rehabilitation , expansion or diversification of the enterprises post privatization and staff welfare; Informed that many federal government enterprises from all sectors of the economy have been sold out to various Core Investors for over two decades under the government privatization program; Concerned that, the chairman of the National Council on Privatization (NCP), the Vice President of Nigeria told the nation that" 80 percent of government companies that have been privatised have failed to operate properly due to lapses in the privatization process ": Further concerned that due to the collapse of the privati sed companies, there are massive loss of jobs and colossal loss of economic returns to the Nigerian economy. For example, the privatised companies in steel sector that used to employ up to 20,000 workers, now have less than 4,000 after the exercise. The electricity Meter Company of Nigeria, Zaria that was privatised in December 2002, recently fired about 90 percent of its workforce; Worried that the privatization program is a fundamental plank of the federal government policy to revamp, develop and grow the Nigerian economy; Accordingly resolves to: i. Set up a special committee to investigate the process through which the bureau of public enterprises(BPE) privatized the companies; ii. Establishthe agreementsand/or conditionsupon whichthe privatization was consummated; iii. Determinehow muchwas realized from the sale of the companies and where the proceedswere paid into; iv. Determinehow many jobs were lost and gained after the privatization of companies; 18 Tuesday, 19th July,2011 30 v. Identify factors that are militating against the expected improved and good performance of the privatized companies; vi. Hold public hearing so as to enable interested stakeholders make presentation on the best way forward with the privatization and the desirable development and growth of the sold companies; and vii. Presenta report to the senate within 4 weeks. CONSlDERA TlON OF A BILL 1. A BILL for an Act to ESTABLISH the Institute of Safety Professionals of Nigeria (ISPON) 2011.

E-mail: [email protected] and [email protected] Abstract: The objective of this paper is to examines the intrigues, power play and accusations surrounding the National Assembly budgetary allocations between 1999 and 2016.This is because since it was inaugurated in June 1999, the Legislature of Nigeria’s Fourth Republic has been roundly defined as an enigmatic one, due to the many twists and turns which accompanied its leadership and membership. It is no longer news that Nigerian legislators are the highest paid lawmakers in the world. When this fact was first revealed a few years ago, the federal lawmakers tried to justify the jumbo pay package without any success. The data for this study was generated from Focus Group Discussion and documentary sources which include books, journals and online materials. The technique of content analysis constituted our data analysis technique. Among the conclusion drawn is for Nigeria to return to the core argument that by paying excessively high salaries and emoluments to top public officials; in particular, permanent secretaries, ministers and legislators, we are mortgaging the rights of our people to development.

  • First Election Security Threat Assessment
    SECURITY THREAT ASSESSMENT: TOWARDS 2015 ELECTIONS January – June 2013 edition With Support from the MacArthur Foundation Table of Contents I. Executive Summary II. Security Threat Assessment for North Central III. Security Threat Assessment for North East IV. Security Threat Assessment for North West V. Security Threat Assessment for South East VI. Security Threat Assessment for South South VII. Security Threat Assessment for South West Executive Summary Political Context The merger between the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), All Nigerian Peoples Party (ANPP) and other smaller parties, has provided an opportunity for opposition parties to align and challenge the dominance of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). This however will also provide the backdrop for a keenly contested election in 2015. The zoning arrangement for the presidency is also a key issue that will define the face of the 2015 elections and possible security consequences. Across the six geopolitical zones, other factors will define the elections. These include the persisting state of insecurity from the insurgency and activities of militants and vigilante groups, the high stakes of election as a result of the availability of derivation revenues, the ethnic heterogeneity that makes elite consensus more difficult to attain, as well as the difficult environmental terrain that makes policing of elections a herculean task. Preparations for the Elections The political temperature across the country is heating up in preparation for the 2015 elections. While some state governors are up for re-election, most others are serving out their second terms. The implication is that most of the states are open for grab by either of the major parties and will therefore make the electoral contest fiercer in 2015 both within the political parties and in the general election.
