Nigeria's Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo Plans To Quickly Make Some Corrects
Just few days after the Presidential Enabling Business Environment Council, PEBEC, adopted a 60-day Action Plan to push Ease of Doing Business reforms in the country, Acting President Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, paid a surprise visit to Nigeria's major international airport in Lagos, declaring an urgent task to correct many of the problems already identified by the Council.
Speaking briefly with the press after inspecting several parts at the airport for over an hour, Prof. Osinbajo said the visit was in line with the work of PEBEC.
According to him, "as part of our work on the Ease of Doing Business, on making the environment friendly, not just for local businesses but also for those who want to come and do business in Nigeria, the airport obviously is one of the major places where we need to ensure that facilities are working and that things are being run properly".
Continuing he said "so we have looked around, we've seen some of the equipments.
There are many many things that need to be done, many things that need to be corrected, and we have to work on them as quickly as possible".
During the unscheduled visit, the Ag. President checked out the toilets, noticed some of the non-functioning carousels in the arrival hall, went to Immigration officials to check the progress of plans to grant visa on arrivals to foreign investors, observed the non-functioning air-conditioners and chillers in the Departure and Arrival halls, the escalators and elevators that are in a state of disrepair among several others.
He was accompanied on the trip by the Aviation Minister of State Hadi Sirika.
At Tuesday's meeting of PEBEC, Prof. Osinbajo had said "we are trying to improve the business environment in three broad respects; the entry and exit of goods, the entry and exit of persons into Nigeria, and then general government transparency and efficiency in government agencies & parastatals".

Event Blogger, Helen Ozor Advices Ladies to Stop Living Their Life Base on Social Media Materials
I've come to realize that we ladies do a lot just to keep a man and get married.
How long will we continue to cover up the flaws we notice while dating all because we want to get married at all cost? And in the end, we still end up being hurt.
Celebrities display the 'perfect life ' on social media and make young ladies waste time waiting for a ready made man.
Why post pictures of things your man never bought for you? Who were you trying to impress? The signs will always be there while courting. If you compromise on a lot of things while dating, you will face the same things when you're married. Trust your instincts while dating.
An irresponsible boyfriend won't be a responsible husband unless he's willing to be responsible. A man who will never go all out for you while dating would not go all out for you when you're married unless he is willing to.
Put love aside, face the reality in your relationship and address the issues in your relationship. Addressing the issues will save you a lot of headache to an extent in your marriage. Never live your life based on what you see on social media. A lot of people fake it here.. it's just perception and what they want you to see and believe which isn't exactly as it is.
If you've been in a 1 year relationship and your boyfriend has never spent a dime on you, ask him for money even when you know you have money to sort out yourself. If you don't ask, how will you know if you're dating a stingy man?.
If you're lucky enough to find a guy who gives you from the little he has, who makes you a priority on his list , hold on to him. You don't come across such guys these days. A lot of ladies fall for the wrong guys based on their fake lifestyle on social media.
There are a lot of things you can achieve while you're still single. Marriage is not the ultimate. Stop counting the number of your friends that are married, a lot of them wish they were still single. Live your own life, do you and do what makes you happy. If you live your life based on what you see on social media, you will only kill yourself. Late Bimbo Odukoya once said 'Love is blind but marriage is the eye opener'.
Why wait to be married when you can open your eyes while dating?
BE WISE! Not all that glitters on social media is gold in real life.

Man Bath His Wife With Acid and Got Sentenced to Death
An Ikeja High Court on Thursday sentenced a businessman, Suleiman Olalekan to death by hanging for killing his 22-year-old wife, Chika Egbo, by bathing her with acid.
Justice Lateef Lawal-Akapo sentenced Suleiman to death after finding him guilty of a two-count charge of murder and grievous bodily harm.
Lawal-Akapo, while pronouncing the sentence, said:
“The defendant is found guilty of murder, the defendant, Suleiman Olalekan, will be hanged by the neck until you are dead.
“May the Lord have mercy on your soul.”
NAN reports that Suleiman, a graduate of Mechanical Engineering from the University of Ibadan, bowed his head and remained expressionless when the sentence was pronounced on him before a crowded courtroom.
His trial started at the High Court on Dec. 9, 2014.
During the trial, the prosecution led by Mr Adeniji Kazeem, the Lagos State Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, said Suleiman committed the offence on Nov. 5, 2012.
“The accused at 1.35 p.m. on the said day at Bakare Street, Ikotun, a Lagos suburb, allegedly caused the death of Chika Egbo by bathing her with acid.
“He also caused the grievous bodily harm of one Mr Sunny Daniel, a commercial motorcyclist".
According to the prosecution, the convict and the deceased got married and had a daughter, who is currently four years old.
“The accused and the deceased were having problems in their relationship; the accused lured the deceased who had moved to Enugu back to Lagos under the guise that he wanted her to visit his mother.
“When she came to Lagos, he and the deceased hailed a commercial motorcycle which was to convey them to his mother’s house.
“While the motorcycle was on motion, the accused brought out a container of acid and poured it on Egbo’s head,” he said.
According to the prosecution, Suleiman was caught while trying to flee the crime scene by passers-by and sympathisers.
“The attack left Egbo’s head badly disfigured and unrecognisable as well as leaving severe burns on her shoulders, breasts and private parts.
“Daniel, the commercial motorcyclist, was also grievously injured during the attack and almost lost an eye.
“Egbo succumbed to her injuries at the Burns Unit of the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH) on Dec. 20, 2014,” Kazeem said.
The offence contravened Sections 221 and 243 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State 2011.
He had pleaded not guilty. But Justice Lawal-Akapo, while pronouncing judgement, debunked his claims.
“I closely watched the demeanour of the accused while he gave his evidence, he was panting and fidgeting. I believe his testimony was filled with falsehood.
“I believe he poured the acid on the deceased which led to her death and the three ingredients of murder have been established.
“The defendant put up the defence of provocation and strenuously admitted it in his defence.
“However, in his statement to the police when the incident was still fresh in his memory, he did not raise the issue of provocation.
“In his confessional statement, he admitted that a battery charger sold the acid to him for N1,500 after he told the battery charger that he needed the acid for an experiment.
“A scenario of provocation did not arise while they were in motion on the motorcycle.
“He also did not bring up the defence of provocation during his oral testimony,” Lawal-Akapo said.
