President elect Gen Muhammadu Buhari says his government will be made up of technocrats only

President elect, Gen Muhammadu Buhari says his
cabinet members will be made of only technocrats with the prerequisite experience to
serve in whatever capacity they are called in to
serve. He said this while speaking with members
of the Northern Elders Forum who paid him a
courtesy visit in Abuja earlier today. Gen Buhari
said he will choose men and women that will
drive his government towards meeting the
aspiration and dreams of every Nigerian. He
however called on Nigerians to give him and his
team some time to achieve all they have
promised. He stated that they will concentrate on Education, Security and Employment creation.

Is this for real

Is this indeed the truth?

Dangote considering buying Arsenal FC

Arsenal Ownership Remains Wish for
Richest African After Rebuff
by Paul Wallace
Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, said he
still wants to buy English Premier League
soccer team Arsenal even after he was
rebuffed by its owners in 2010.
Nigeria’s Dangote, an Arsenal fan worth $
15.7 billion, according to the Bloomberg
Billionaires Index, discussed buying a stake
in the club five years ago before talks with
the owners fell through, he said. Since then
his wealth has grown more than sevenfold.
“I still hope, one day at the right price, that
I’ll buy the team,” Dangote, 58, said in an
interview as he traveled on a plane owned
by one of his companies between the
Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa and the
Nigerian commercial hub of Lagos on May
1. “I might buy it, not at a ridiculous price
but a price that the owners won’t want to
resist. I know my strategy.”
Arsenal is one of England’s most successful
clubs, having won 13 top flight league titles
in the country, the most after Manchester
United and Liverpool. Arsenal Holdings Plc.,
the owner, trades on the ICAP Securities &
Derivatives Exchange, or ISDX, and is
valued at 988 million pounds ($1.49 billion)
.
A successful bid would make Dangote the
first African owner of a club in a league
where billionaires including Russia’s Roman
Abramovich, the owner of Chelsea, and Abu
Dhabi’s Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed al
Nahyan, who controls Manchester City, have
acquired teams.
Stan Kroenke, worth $5.6 billion and owner
of the National Football League’s St. Louis
Rams, holds 67 percent of Arsenal,
according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Red & White Sec Ltd., controlled by Uzbek
billionaire Alisher Usmanov and Farhad
Moshiri, owns 30 percent.
Cement, Gas
Dan Tolhurst, a spokesman for the London-
based club, declined to comment as did
Rollo Head, a spokesman for Usmanov in
London. Tomago Collins, a spokesman for
Kroenke in Denver, did not immediately
respond to e-mails requesting comment.
Dangote has interests in sugar and flour
and controls Dangote Cement Plc, Nigeria’s
biggest publicly traded company. He is
investing $11 billion in a 650,000 barrel-a-
day oil refinery near Lagos and as much as
$2.5 billion in gas pipelines running to the
city from Nigeria’s oil-rich Niger River delta
region.
His wealth has fallen by $2.7 billion this
year, the sixth-most globally, according to
the Billionaires Index.
Dangote, who ranks 55th on the index, said
he’s too busy with existing projects to
mount a bid now.
“We have $16 billion-worth of investments
in the next few years,” he said. “Right now I
want to take my own business to a certain
level. Once I finish on that trajectory, then
maybe” an offer will follow.
Limited Success
Most English Premier League matches are
broadcast live in Nigeria, Africa’s most
populous country, by Supersport, a satellite
television channel owned by South Africa’s
Naspers Ltd.
Arsenal won the FA Cup, England’s main
knockout tournament, last year, its first
major trophy since 2005, and is in the final
of the same tournament this year. Over the
last decade London rivals Chelsea have won
the English league four times as well as the
European Champions League and several
other trophies.
Arsene Wenger, who has managed Arsenal
since 1996, has been criticized by fans
including Rwanda’s President Paul Kagame
for the team’s limited success in the last
decade. Dangote said he is often too
nervous to watch their games. The team
beat Hull 3-1 on Monday with two goals
from Chilean striker Alexis Sanchez.
While Wenger has managed the club well
from a financial standpoint, he “needs to
change his style a bit,” said Dangote. “They
need new direction.”

Man rides bicycle from Kaduna to Lagos to thank Yoruba's for voting Buhari

Reports made it known that Mohammed, a
resident of Hayin Malam Bello in Rigasa
district of Igabi local government area of
Kaduna State, took off on his journey to
Lagos at exactly 6: 35am at the palace of
Sarkin Hayin Malam Bello, Alhaji Kabiru Isa
Gangarida.
Speaking to newsmen before embarking on
the journey, Mohammed said:
“I have decided to embark on this journey
to Lagos because I want to go and thank
Yoruba people for their immense support
and contributions that led to the victory of
General Muhammadu Buhari during the
March 28 presidential election. The decision
to undertake the journey came to my mind
after analysing the votes cast for Buhari by
the Yoruba people and after I discussed my
intention with my immediate family and
friends, they encouraged me to go on the
journey.”
Mohammed, a father of four who lives at
Goro road in Hayin Malam Bello, further
said:
“I have never been to Lagos before; this is
my first time and only God knows how
many days I will spend before reaching
Lagos”. When asked whether he has any
fear about the journey, Mohammed said:
“I don’t have any fear because I believe in
God that nothing will happen to me on the
road; all I want is people’s prayers so that I
will reach Lagos safely.”
Also speaking, an APC chieftain in the state,
Hon. Kailani Mohammed, said Mohammed
Kabiru will be received by the vice
president-elect, Professor Yemi Osinbajo
and other prominent members of the APC in
Lagos on his arrival, and wished
Mohammed a safe trip.
Since the victory of Buhari at the poll in
March 28, various people have decided to
honor him one way or the other by walking
for him. First it was Suleiman Hashimu,
who walked from Lagos to Abuja to honor
the president-elect. Another person,
Abubakar Duduwale is on his way from Yola
to Abuja just to express his joy and
solidarity for the president-elect.
