In the face of delayed and sometimes non -availability of subventions which are to be given to Principals in public schools to run minor expenses in the schools across Delta State, it was learnt that the Delta State Commissioner, Basic and Secondary Education, Mrs Rose Ezewu has allegedly mandated (without option) Principals in the state to pay for, or with their money produce the portrait picture of the Governor Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori and she herself to be displayed in their various offices in the schools across the state, the action which would place financial burden on them.


It was learnt that the said project would cost each of the schools’ Principals the sum of #40,000 which they would not find easy to do since they are over stretched in their areas of finance in some maintenance of their schools to make their school comfortable for the students to learn since schools resumed for 2023/2024 academic session.

Reacting to this development, the Chairman, Committee for the Defence of Human Rights, Delta State branch, Comrade Jonathan Giama said it is a wrong move by the Education Commissioner, Mrs Rose Ezewu if the information is true since neither the various Principals are given subventions nor grants to help run expenses in the their various schools

Nigerian USA- based -legal luminary, Chris Okobah said the court has become a guff and bleeding ground for electoral frauds which have caused more harm than good to the country’s democracy saying as such, it is no longer the last hope of the common man and therefore tasked Nigerians to tighten the knots of the nation’s electoral system to stop the judiciary from deciding the fate of election results.


Okobah stated this yesterday in a chat with journalists in Asaba the state capital. Okobah who arrived Nigeria from U.S.A recently, said, the call became necessary as the court has become a place political class always run to have their way after manipulating the electoral systems .

According to him, the uncertainty and confusion in the air following the recent court’s Judgements show that the court is now “the last hope of the corrupt politicians because they get what they want, after all”.

His words:”It is nonsense when we say that the court is the last hope of the common man. The court is now the last hope of corrupt politicians because they use it to get what they want. So, why must we live our electoral system to court to decide, it only happens though, because of the manipulations in the system.

“Education is the bedrock of the society”, as it is commonly said. No doubt, it plays a lot of roles in human capital development and any nation which downplays education matters is doomed. In the education of a nation, the government at all levels, the teachers and the students/ learners themselves have parts to play. While it is agreed that informal education begins at home, the government leads the way in formal education and others follow: it establishes the schools, design the curricular through the experts in education matters, provides human and material resources, does the supervisory roles through the Ministry of Education for effective teaching and learning to take place.


This underscores the basis, like other sectors of the economy, during budgeting, it is not forgotten in a hurry as a chunk of money is allotted for its operation. However, in Nigeria in general and Delta State in particular, the case is different. It does appear that the education of the citizens in basic and secondary levels are downplayed. How? With the money budgeted for education sector, there is nothing to write home about as many of the basic and secondary schools lack human and material resources to operate despite the UBE programme

The General Overseer of Goshen Freedom Tabernacle (GFT ) in Effurun, Uvwie Local Government Area of Delta State, Prophet Austin Ariole (JP) has urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to do the needful for country’s speedy growth and development just as he charged him(Tinubu) to allow the newly appointed Ministers in his government to work and not to cast blames on past administrations.

The Cleric gave the advice in a chat with newsmen in his birthday at his residence in Effurun. According to him, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu must get it right by doing the needful and avoid anything that could aggravate the suffering of Nigerians.

Prophet Ariole who said, there is a problem in the country, said nothing seemed working well despite the Nigeria’s abundance natural resources. He therefore called on President Tinubu to ensure that Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Limited(NNPCL) do the needful now that the fuel subsidy has been removed to alleviate the suffering of Nigerians.

His words:” Refineries are not working well whereas salaries are paid. I call on the President Tinubu to fix things in order for the NNPC to perform its expected duties. The removal of the fuel subsidy has not affected the rich but the poor”.
