L a g o s g o v t , F e d e r a l T a s k F o r c e c l a s h o v e r a u t h o r i t y By Clifford Ejenavi Date Published 10/11/2014 The National Coordinator, Sure-P/FERMA Federal Task Force, Alh. Abdulrazak Rafiu, popularly known as ‘Otto’, has lambasted the Lagos State government over what he described as monopoly, selfish and impostor governance by the state who in a press release recently labeled the Federal Task Force illegal after they were deployed on the federal roads across the state to perform their duties. Infuriated by the Lagos State government’s press release, Rafiu in a statement signed by the National Director of Publicity of the Federal Taskforce, Mr. Olawale Oyeboh and were made available to Nigerian NewsDirect, said, “If we are illegal, then why did the federal government not stop our operations or activities since we have been recruiting. Let’s look at it from this perspective; is it possible for a group of people without the federal government’s approval to name themselves Federal Task Force in a country where we have the Judiciary, the SSS, the Police and all other security operatives? “We are all aware that through this empower-ment programme, subsidy re-investment and empowerment programme established by President Jonathan, is to create employment for all Nigerian citizens in the state.” Rafiu further reiterated that there has been several requests by Lagos residents, road users and various road transport unions including the Okada riders anticipating that the Federal Task Force should resume operation on federal roads in Lagos. According to him, most Lagosians said they can no longer bear the extortionist ways, attitude and system of the Lagos State Transport Management Authority (LASTMA ) officials, reminding the Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babatunda Fashola of the 2004 court ruling that the state transport management authority jurisdiction doesn’t permit them to operate on the federal roads in the state. “The Federal Task Force has nothing against the LASTMA officers but we are only reminding them to remain on their state roads. As we all know, they are known as the Lagos State Transport Management Authority and should allow the Federal Task Force perform their civil right and duties in a bid to manage and maintain traffic across Lagos Federal roads and to also recover for the Federal Government the proper-ties that have been stolen and manipulated by the state government and any individuals including the Fashola led government and his political godfather to the hand over to the federal government.” The Federal Taskforce boss also stated, “How can trained and educated graduates seeking jobs be used by any political group or party to cause confusion? Many of these Federal Task Force recruited officers are intellectuals, reliable youths and adults looking for means of livelihood. They appreciate this empowerment programme initiated by Mr. President as a yardstick of creating employment opportunities. “So, why should the Lagos State Governor stand boldly and call your wife, your father or my father and our future leaders, who are seeking for this job, political thugs? If someone called his daughter or son a thug, how do you think he (Governor Fashola) will feel? In this regard, I appeal to all Lagos residents and parents to reject and send back to sender this very costly and expensive statement made by our so called Lagos State Governor. Patience is said to be a very good tool. So, my advice to all my Federal Task Force officers and the general populace would be let’s exercise a little patience with President Jonathan as plans to deploy Federal Taskforce officers on the federal roads in Lagos are perfectly in place in the next few weeks. Mr. President is providing for the Federal Task Force all required support from the Nigeria police, the State Security Service (SSS), the civil defense and all other security agencies to work with us.” Rafiu therefore warned that though they did not have any problem with the Lagos State government but any attempt by any group or individuals to interrupt the operations of the Federal Taskforce officers should be ready to face the wrath of the 3 Likes |

emmysoftyou: FERMA denied Ferderal Task Force times without number. Federal Govt. wont intervene at all they choose to keep quiet cos. they seems to be threat to APC. Paid 3k for form for a friend early this year but when we got there I was very disappointed cos they were so disorganized and seems more of tout than govt workers. You guys should stop deceiving yourselves and move on. I noticed the following as well Non of the top officials seems learned, they look more like NURTW members. All their cars are private owned with sticker indicating Federal Task Force. Non of the cars are new or have govt plate number. The earlier stickers had FERMA logo but was removed when they were denied by FERMA officials. Recruitment is still ongoing and you get recruited as long as you have your money.

Re: federal Task Force: Is This Real Or Political Scam by Nobody: 6:24am On Nov 15, 2014 |
emmysoftyou: the main fact about the whole situation is this.....federal task force is illegal because it is not backed up by the constitution, before ot can br regarded as legal or likely to be backed by the constition, the bill to establish it should be in the national assembly after being presented by the president, buh nothing like that is happening, and the funds to pay salaries of the workers will have to be in d budget, by the constitution that backed it up. you cant compare it with FRSC, NSCDC, etc, because they are established and backed up by the constition...buh, this one is not, the bill to establish it is not in the constituion, and next year is around the cornet, which means, budget for 2015 has been prepared already, and what is not backed up by the constitution cant be included 8n the budget unless GEJ wants to pay your salaries with the missing 20$ billion. i do not see this leading anywhere broda. they want to use you guys for election and politics... 1 Like |

@hayjaycity.i respect your views but i think you need to be enightened. -does the constitution recognise sure p and ferma - does the federal govt need legislative approval to recruit new workers? -have you bothered to ask yourself why it was named SURE P FERMA TASKFORCE?the reason is to solve two major problems they may encounter which include OPERATIONAL-FERMA.remember ferma has the mandate to maintain federal highways FINANCE-SURE P.subvention to the organisation will be made through sure p.y do you think BRF has not gone to court to challenge the establishment of this tskforce. 1 Like |

alen4smith: your answer is simple...ferma cannot establish a federak task force o n federal highways without the apprpval of the constitution becaus ferma is not a revenue generating government agency, therefore any task force that it established, must be backed by the constitution and its fundings will be from the national budget.....i still say it, all of una don enter one chance 1 Like |

Vacate all Federal roads, Fed Task Force orders LASTMAPosted by:Olalekan AyeniinTransportation5 days agoAs it gears up to take over traffic management on all federal roads, the Subsidy Reinvestment and Empowerment Programme (SURE-P)/FERMA Federal Task Force has directedthe Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) to vacate all federal roads in the state. It said any attack on his men may spark a row with the Federal Government.It said LASTMA should respect the 2004 court ruling which said that its jurisdiction does not extend to federal roads in thestate.Speaking in his office last week, the National Coordinator of the Task Force Alhaji Abdulrazak Rafiu-Otto, said LASTMA should allow his officers and men to perform the duties for which they were employed. He stated that the men’s duties were the management and maintainance of traffic across all federal roads in Lagos and the recovery of all Federal Government properties and infrastructure in the state.Rafiu-Otto, who insisted that the Task Force has nothing against LASTMA, appealed that the latter stay off federal roadsand concentrate efforts of its officers and men to ridding the state roads of the traffic gridlock that is intractable in the state. He said his agency would be willing to collaborate with LASTMA in the overall objective of riding the state of gridlocks.Wondering why the state government would raise a false alarm on the activities of his men, Rafiu-Otto said the agency was not illegal, as it was created by President Goodluck Jonathan as part of the SURE-P initiative which has provided jobs for thousands of Nigerian youths.He said there is no truth in the allegations that the Task Force is a band of political thugs recruited to prosecute the 2015 election, saying such claims was aimed at causing violence and confusion.He said “The officers recruited by the Federal Task Force are not thugs, but unemployed graduates and adults looking for a means of livelihood and they all appreciated that the empowerment is already yielding fruits.” He wondered why theFederal Government has not ejected them from its premises atthe old toll gate site if they were illegal.He said arrangements are almost concluded to have PresidentJonathan inaugurate the Federal Task Force and deploy them to all federal roads across the country.“This would be perfected in a matter of weeks. What we are all waiting for is the necessary basic support from the Nigeria Police, the Department of State Security (DSS), the Civil Defence and all other security agencies to work with the newlyestablished body,” Rafiu-Otto said. |

clemz88: Is there no clear difference between NSCDC and your FERMA SUREP TASK FORCE ? NSCDC was born decades ago by the military to be involved in civil cases,and to carry civilians along in thr security of the states properties, with the main aim of elongating their stay then, and recently it was jst reformed to serve the teeming populace and nigeria grows...even if you like try set office on fire, na the same government go send troops come disperse you away..remember the subsidy removal protests..., now my question is, do you guyz want to be cobtrolling traffic or what, because most federal roads which are called the trunk A roads are express and highways...and they are not much...now do they want to deploy y'all to these ever busy roads?...all of you that i heard there was no categorisation in your recruitment, all onds, hndz, and bsc are parked together to be deployed to roads...intellect is not at play here o! at all....buh i dey watch sha....you've gotta have plans B o...this your parole wey FG or the presidency has nit mentioned about it even despite coming to Lagos apart fron your otto coordinator wey don master the plan for you against d next election, they will jst use you to say they provided job for the unemployed in the country...afyer election, your coordinator go travel out, FG wilk send troops down your office and thats the end...you know as GEJ dey do nah. you have all been done...and remember that you can only last as GEJ last. Even LASTMA, VIO, FRSC, NIS, CUSTOMS, NSCDC ETC were established and backed up by the constitution, which makes their operations legal...if your matter no dey National Assembly now subjected to approval, begore funds made available for payment of salaries..you guyz dey try sha....even take a look at the SUREP GRADUATE INTERNSHIP SCHEME...Do uou kbow how the interns were jst beingdeceived and paid less than d amount promised them....make una wise up o...if i wete you sha...i would have left sharp sharp...i hate being taken for a ride....#UnaDonEnterOneChance.. |

@hayjaycity you claim to know everything but going through your post i think its needless engaging you in any kind of arguement.but MR KNOWITALL" it is called CONCURRENT" not RECURRENT.moreso i dont think you understand what i ws trying to say i guess you are a slow learner.what i meant ws does the federal govt need legislative backing to employ into FERMA or SURE P. remember these are already existing agencies recognised by the constitution.besides what is happening in toll gate according to the law is recruitment into existing agency(FERMA) to be funded by sure p under its social safety net programme.moreso you said traffic control is under the concurrent list.i.e both the federal and state govt can legislate on items in this list.but i want to ask you,when there is clash of interest between the federal and state govt in the concurrent list which one is upheld? |
