No action on UTME, NECO yet,
says FG
April 8, 2013
By Syych sottovoce

North, Favour Nnabugwu &
Livinus Nwabughiogu
Abuja — Worried by the anxiety
that has trailed the purported
scrapping of the Unified Tertiary
Matriculation Examination, UTME
and the National Examination
Council, NECO, the Federal
Government has cleared the air
on the matter, saying that no
decision has been taken on the
matter.
Many groups including members
of the National Assembly and
labour unions have already
kicked against the planned
scrapping of the institutions,
which have been providing
services for students across the
country.
Although the government is yet
to issue a white paper on the
recommendation of the
Oronsaye Report, which
recommended the reduction of
government agencies to a
reasonable number to save
costs, a top government official
last week leaked a report to
state House correspondents,
claiming that NECO and UTME
had been laid to rest.
But the Minister of State for
Education, Chief Nyesom Wike,
told Vanguard in an exclusive
interview in Abuja that the
government was yet to take any
decision on the issue and asked
Nigerians not to panic.
According to Wike, it was
improper for people to spread
rumours about what the
administration had not taken a
firm decision on.
Wike said, “It is true that there
was a committee set up to issue
a white paper on the Oronsaye
Report and up till now the
committee has not presented its
report to the government for
examination and adoption to
warrant the kind of rumours
making the rounds and causing
anxiety in the country.
“What Nigerians should believe
and expect from the
administration of President
Goodluck Jonathan is nothing
but the best at all times. This
government means well for the
education sector and will
therefore not do anything that
will not be in the best interest of
all Nigerians.
“If the government wants to
take any decision on JAMB, NECO
and the rest, such actions will be
weighed and taken with the
overall best interest of all and I
can assure Nigerians that no
such action has yet been taken.”
Wike explained that the
government was rather working
hard to reposition the education
sector by providing necessary
facilities and personnel for all
the unity schools in the country
as well as strengthen tertiary
education to make it more
useful to Nigerians.
According to the minister, the
overall goal of the ministry was
to meet the Millennium
Development Goal and pave the
way for some of Nigeria’s
universities to meet
international standards and be
counted among the best in the
world.
Wike pointed out that the
present administration was also
working hard to clear the rot in
the education system by
ensuring regular inspection of
schools and training of teachers
and other operators of the
system to enable them to cope
with the modern techniques of
teaching and learning.
“The situation in the Nigerian
education system is taking a
better shape that it was when
we first came in and we are not
going to rest until we sanitise
the situation for the interest of
the nation and its people
because education holds the key
for the nation’s advancement,”
Wike stated.
Vanguard learnt from competent
sources that a crucial meeting of
heads of parastatals had been
slated for today to enable the
administration to deliberate on
the outcome of the Orosonya
report, with a view to
streamlining the agencies with a
view to issuing a white paper.
The meeting, which is to be
presided over by the Secretary
to the Government of the
Federation, will seek the inputs
of stakeholders to ensure a
hitch-free implementation of the
agencies to merged or scrapped.

Kidnappers demand N50m ransom for 90-yr-old woman

BY EMMA AMAIZE & AKPOKONA OMAFUAIRE
UGHELLI —THE five-man kidnap gang that stormed Oviri-Olomu community in Ughelli South Local Government Area of Delta State, last week, and kidnapped 90-year-old Mrs. Egbeshire Otovwievwie is demanding N50 million ransom for her release.

The nonagenarian is the mother of a top official of the National Union of Petroleum, Energy and Natural Gas, NUPENG, and staff of the Nigeria Gas Company, NGC.

A dependable source told Vanguard: “The kidnappers called the woman’s son on Sunday and demanded that N50 million be paid before the woman will be released.”

Vanguard was not able to reach the victim’s son for comments, but there was palpable tension in Olomu kingdom over the incident.

Meantime, the community’s vigilance group and youths have mounted round the clock surveillance in Olomu and environs since the incident, while a manhunt was on for the kidnappers.

The abductors, who took the community youths unawares, went to Mrs. Otovwievwie’s residence on Esie Street, Oviri Olomu, in a Toyota Camry car at about 12.30 a.m, last Friday, and whisked her away.

The Olomu monarch, Ovie R. L. Ogbon, Ogoni-Oghoro I, yesterday, appealed to the kidnappers to immediately and unconditionally, release the great grandmother.
