Research By Araba, Olawale Enifenilanfe. ABUJA- Citing the devaluation of naira as a crucial factor, the House of Reps Committee on finance rejected the N1.33 trillion revenue projected by the Nigerian Customs Service (NCS) for the 2022 financial year. According to the Lawmakers, the projection is inadequate especially considering the devaluation of the country’s currency. James Faleke, chairman of the committee, declared that the committee will not be accepting the N1.33 trillion revenue projected by the NCS. “For us as a committee on finance, we will not accept the N1.3 trillion. I am sure that by the time our report comes out, you will be pleasantly happy.” The NCS had indicated that it was projecting the sum as its 2022 revenue during the ongoing interactive session on the 2022/2024 medium-term expenditure framework/ fiscal strategy paper (MTEF/FSP) for ministries, departments, and agencies (MDAs), held in Abuja on Monday Hameed Ali, comptroller

Image
By Moses Adeniyi The Lagos State Government (LASG) has constituted a special team to launch enforcement operations aimed at sweeping beggars off the streets of the State’s metropolis. It has been observed that Lagos metropolis has, most recently, been littered with beggars who in their troops have flooded major high ways and interiors of the State. It was gathered that the task of the team will extend beyond enforcement operation to sanitise the metropolis, to also restoring the dignity of vulnerable persons sent onto the streets for alms begging and hawking. The team, according to information obtained, would beyond the State’s police command, include social workers, care-givers, and volunteers, with a state-wide operation on daily basis. According to the State’s Commissioner for Youth and Social Development, Mr. Olusegun Dawodu, the special team which was set up to tackle the “menace frontally”, will commence operations in the next few days.

Senate Denies Proposing Creation Of 20 New States.

@NGRSenate. The Senate has debunked reports that the lawmakers have proposed the creation of 20 more states, saying the upper chamber was “grossly” misrepresented.” Senate spokesman Ajibola Basiru in a statement on Sunday said the report is a misunderstanding of the decision reached by the Senate Committee on the Review of the 1999 constitution. “The report is a gross misrepresentation of the decision of the committee on the request for creation of more states,” the statement maintained. “Far from recommending creation of any state, the Senate Committee, while acknowledging receipts of several Bills proposing creation of new states, decided that it is not in a position to recommend or proposed the creation of any state unless there is compliance with the provisions of section 8 of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic as amended.” According to the lawmaker representing Osun Central, Section 8 of the Nigerian Constitution clearly stipulates the procedures for the cre
