The PUNCH reports that the Chairman of Community Peace Observers in the Bokkos Local Government Area, Plateau State, Kefas Mallai, disclosed that over 150 were killed by the gunmen. Tinubu, in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, on Tuesday, condemned the attacks and ordered a manhunt for the killers. Reacting, the PDP National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, in a statement on Friday queried what was responsible for the failure of intelligence before and during the coordinated killing.

This call was reiterated recently during a Stakeholders Engagement Forum held at the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA) Headquarters, aimed at assessing the efficiency of the Electronic Call-up System amid the resurgence of traffic gridlock along the Apapa Port Access road. In light of these challenges, TTP proposed the deployment of E-tags to improve the electronic call-up system deployed for the Apapa and Tin-Can ports. E-tag readers at entry and exit gates integrate with the access barrier system, improving security and access control. Furthermore, TTP recommended the implementation of EITN for Apapa and Tin-Can Ports, describing it as a key transaction and traffic cycle correlation measure.

A renewed you must emerge in the new year
In the new year, a renewed you must emerge! You may be working very hard at what you do, but without setting goals, your hard work doesn’t yield meaningful results. And if you don’t know where you are, then you don’t know where you’re going. And if you don’t know where you’re going, you’re probably going wrong.”The story of Alice in Wonderland sets this discourse straight. When you are told that these positive affirmations will not work, tell them they will; and they sure will.

Rejection of new retirement age the right call
THE recent rejection by the National Council on Establishment of the proposed 65-year retirement age for workers is the right call. The NCE rightly noted that the proposed upward review of the retirement age negates the principles of renewal, youth empowerment and innovation. President Bola Tinubu had also in June assented to a constitution amendment bill harmonising the retirement age of judges and judicial officers to 70 to bring to uniformity their retirement age and pension rights. Related NewsExtending the retirement age however is counterproductive, ill-considered and a reflection of the lack of strategic thinking by Nigeria’s governing elite. Rather than extending the retirement age or the length of service, the government should employ younger people.
