Peter Obi frowns at exclusion of North Central from regional commission budget

The Labour Party, LP, presidential candidate in the 2023 general elections, Peter Obi, has frowned at the decision of the Federal Government to exclude the North Central from its 2025 fiscal budgetary allocations to the regional commissions.

Pouring his dissatisfaction on the action of the Federal Government via a post on his X handle, Obi noted that the action was discriminatory and had far-reaching implications.

According to him, such an anomaly does not make for the even development and peace that is needed for progress in the country.

The former Anambra State Governor, said the North Central region is one that urgently requires special attention due to the severe challenges it faces today.

Recall that relentless terror attacks and banditry in Plateau, Benue, Kogi, and Niger States have caused immense suffering, resulting in significant loss of lives and forcing countless families into internally displaced persons, IDP, camps.

“The exclusion of the North Central Regional Commission from the budgetary allocations provided to other regional commissions in the 2025 proposed budget is deeply troubling and must be urgently reversed.

“A total of N2.493 trillion has been allocated to five regional development commissions, with the North Central Regional Commission glaringly omitted.

“These persistent tragedies have made the North Central one of the most affected and vulnerable regions in Nigeria.

“Known as the agricultural backbone of the nation, the North Central region deserves robust support to enhance security, stability, and development for the benefit of the entire country.

“I, therefore, call on the government and National Assembly to urgently review and rectify this decision that will impact negatively on the region and area most needed for the development of the country.

“Together, we must work toward a more inclusive and equitable Nigeria. A New Nigeria is not just a dream,” he tweeted.

Trump blames New Orleans attack on illegal immigration

United States President-elect, Donald Trump, has attributed the deadly truck attack on a crowd of revelers in New Orleans on Wednesday to illegal immigration, the issue at the heart of his election victory.

DAILY POST reports that no fewer than 10 people were killed after a vehicle drove into a large crowd in New Orleans, a city in Louisiana, United States.

Posting on social media, Trump said criminals immigrating into the country are worst than the indigenous ones.

“When I said that the criminals coming in are far worse than the criminals we have in the country… it turned out to be true,” he said.

Meanwhile, the police have not indicated the nationality or identity of the attacker.

According to the president-elect, the nation’s crime rate is at a level that nobody has ever seen.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation, FBI, said that violent crime is sharply down across the country.
