It is an absurdity to expect that Jonathan and his team, who have failed to manage good times with unprecedented income from crude sale, are the same people some idiots are supporting to continue their failed/doomed transformation in hard times. Should Jonathan win by hook or crook, please brace yourselves for long period of real suffering. The austerity measures that will be introduced will mostly affect ordinary Nigerians and not those spoilt overfed cohorts who are already addicted to extravagant living. For those of you GEJites who are still somewhat reasonable, understand that a new economic management team spearheaded by GMB/Osinbajo ably supported by Fashola, Amaechi, Soludo, Pat Utomi and the likes is what Nigeria needs at this critical juncture. 6 Likes

Obiagelli: The second Niger bridge has alternative sources of fundings which include SURE-P, National budget, the Nigerian Sovereign Investment proceeds and probably the CBN Corporate Responsibilities projects ![]() The Nigerian Sovereign Investment Authority (NSIA) managers of the nation’s sovereign fund, will today release funds as part of its equity stake in the second Niger bridge, even as it revealed that it earned N2.5 billion in profits at the end of the half year 2014 period. “We are in the process of paying money to Julius Berger as part of early works for the bridge,” said Uche Orji, the managing director, NSIA, in a telephone interview with BusinessDay. “The SWF made net profits of N2.5 billion as at June, 2014, while our expenses were flattish to down,” Orji said. The profits are 370 percent higher than the N525 million profits realised by the NSIA in the 15 month period to December 2013. Half of the profits are realised gains, while the rest are unrealised gains from the investment portfolio, based on the market’s performance, according to Orji. The Julius Berger-NSIA Motorways Investment Company (JB-NMIC) Consortium is the preferred bidder for the development of the Second River Niger Bridge Project. The NSIA invests with three funds which are the Future Generations Fund to which it allocates 40 percent of its assets; Nigerian Infrastructure Fund (40 percent) and Stabilisation Fund (20 percent). The Nigeria Infrastructure Fund (NIF) focuses entirely on domestic investments in selected infrastructure sectors. “The Nigeria Infrastructure Fund (NIF), NSIA is focused on investing in critical infrastructure that would attract and support Foreign Direct Investment, promote economic diversification and enhance growth,” The NSIA said in a statement in its 2013 FY financial report. The NSIA has funded three commitments in the infrastructure fund namely: the Nigeria Mortgage Refinancing Company, in which it holds 22.7 per cent stake, fund for agriculture finance and the second Niger Bridge. Speaking on the future generations funds (FGF), Orji said four hedge fund managers were allocated 25 per cent of the agency’s assets, across various strategies including global, macro and long-short equities. The FGF has an investment horizon of about 20 years. Orji said the near term view is positive for the market in 2014, with 80 percent of the FGF asset allocation in growth assets, 15 percent in inflation hedge assets and 5 percent in deflation hedge assets. Within the growth asset category, the NSIA has allocated 25 percent to equities, split 15 percent to emerging markets and 10 percent to developed markets. ‘‘We have also allocated 25 percent to absolute return funds, another 25 percent to private equity funds and 5 percent to other diversifiers. Within the inflation protection assets, we have allocated 10 percent to real assets and 5 percent to commodities. And finally we have retained 5 percent in cash as deflation protection for the portfolio,’’ he said. The Private Equity (PE) fund would also be fully allocated by December, according to Orji. While there was no direct exposure to Nigerian equities for the period, there was a little indirect exposure through investments in Emerging Markets (EM) fund managers with Nigerian assets in their portfolios. ‘’We are not considering direct exposure to Nigerian equities for now,’’ Orji said. businessDay aug.11.2014 Source: Businessday News 3 Likes |

Firefire:I was thinking you are one intelligent dude before, but your comment gave you away as a not very intelligent person. As a gej fan that you are, I was expecting you to laud the budget slash because of the massive corruption that is going on in the works ministry, but you didn't even realize that or maybe you don't know about the corruption going on there. My first comment on this thread, I applauded the fg for slashing the ministry budget from 100billion to 11billion because even when the ministry was receiving more than 200billion there was absolutely nothing to show for it....... But alas you couldn't even praise your gej for initiating a programme that will dwindle the corruption that is going on in the works ministry rather you jumped into calling names.. Chai gej really need to change you guys.... ![]() 2 Likes |

This is capital TRANSFORMATION. Please tell those SURE-P guys at Ojota that right before the election, Jonathan has forgotten them. Tell the Igbos even before the election, that their 2nd, 3rd and other decorative projects are just pipe dreams. We need to ask the Finance Minister what happened to the N203bn the works Minister claimed didn't get to them. Maybe technology will help them trace the whereabouts of the money. Ngozi told us we wouldn't feel the impact of the falling oil prices. She lied. Ngozi told us we have money. She lied. Ngozi told us Naira will bounce back. She lied. Ngozi withheld money for road construction, yet she is dancing atilogwu all over the place and fooling us that all is well. Oh wind of CHANGE, blow them away. It is time to #MARCH4CHANGE. 1 Like |
