March 4, 2024 Qatar Team To Pay Nigeria Follow-Up Visit On Bilateral Agreements

Qatar Team To Pay Nigeria Follow-Up Visit On Bilateral Agreements

President Bola Tinubu has said that Nigerian youths are worth every investment as they are educated, reliable, and proactive.

He argued that a few bad eggs cannot be a yardstick for gauging the capacity of the majority who, he said, are “ready to be unleashed for the mutual benefit of both nations.”

President Tinubu said these when he and the Emir of the State of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al Thani, witnessed the signing of seven landmark agreements between both nations after closed-door talks at the Presidential Palace in Doha.

The seven agreements signed are a cooperation agreement in the field of education; regulation of employment of workers with the Government of Qatar; establishment of a joint business council between the Qatar Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the Nigerian Association of Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines, and Agriculture; in addition to a cooperation agreement in the field of youths and sports.

The documents were signed by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuggar, and relevant officials in the government of the State of Qatar.

Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, revealed this in a statement titled ‘President Tinubu welcomes multi-sectoral agreements with Qatar: Set to receive Qatar’s investment team in Abuja.’

March 1, 2024 Knee Injury Rules Tottenham Forward, Richarlison Out For Three To Four Weeks

Knee Injury Rules Tottenham Forward, Richarlison Out For Three To Four Weeks

Richarlison, Tottenham’s attacker, will be out for “three to four weeks” due to a knee injury, according to manager Ange Postecoglou.

The Brazilian, 26, sustained the injury in Spurs’ 2-1 defeat to Wolves the previous time out.

Richarlison has 10 goals in 22 top-flight games this season.

“Richy is disappointed because he’s been a key contributor, but that has been how our season has gone,” Postecoglou said.

Richarlison has scored nine goals in his last ten appearances.

Tottenham have struggled with injuries in recent weeks, with Postecoglou still missing defender Pedro Porro, and Ryan Sessegnon due to miss the remainder of the season after undergoing hamstring surgery this week.

However, they could benefit from the return of full-back Destiny Udogie, who returned to training this week.

Tottenham, who are fifth in the Premier League and five points behind fourth-placed Aston Villa, will face Crystal Palace on Saturday.

Bill On Establishment Of NASS Budget Office Scales Second Reading

 

A Bill for an Act to establish the National Assembly (NASS) Budget and Research Office has scaled second reading in the Senate.

If eventually passed, the bill sponsored by the Deputy Senate President, Barau Jibrin, will provide the National Assembly with objective, timely and non-partisan analysis needed for economic and budget decisions.

The Bill is expected to run concurrently with the budget office of the executive.

In a debate, the lawmakers argue that the bill which has suffered rejection in previous assemblies over the last 20 years, remains critical in strengthening legislative efficiency and ensuring the budget passed by the executive, is thoroughly scrutinized.

In the same strength, the upper chamber debated the new directive on the recruitment of policemen.
