Federal Government Says It Does Not Have Control Over Cooking Gas Price

The Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, TIMIPRE SYLVA, has said the Federal Government has no control over the skyrocketing prices of cooking gas.

He said this while fielding questions from State House reporters after introducing the CEO, Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority, Engr FARUK AHMED and the CEO, Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission, Engr. GBENGA KOMOLAFE, to the President at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The minister, who said President BUHARI was concerned about the development, stated that government cannot even subsidize the product because it is fully deregulated as gas prices are determined by the global market.

He said government was doing everything possible to bring down the price especially during the yuletide.

Germany Offers To Train Nigerian Policemen On How To Handle Protests Without Guns Amid Controversial ENDSARS Report

The German government has asked the Federal Government to release at least 30,000 Nigeria Police personnel for special training in Germany.

They would be taught how to manage protests among Nigerians without using weapons.

A high-level delegation from Germany, which visited the Chairman of the Police Service Commission, MUSILIU SMITH specifically said it was willing to train the new crop of recruits into the Nigeria Police Force on best practices on street protest management.

The team, led by a retired Inspector-General of the German Federal Police, MATTHIAS SEEGER, had earlier visited the force headquarters where they interacted with the Inspector-General of Police, USMAN BABA.

But the German’s position on the management of protests without the use of firearms was countered by SMITH, who said Nigerian protesters were usually armed and law enforcement agents have to defend themselves and other citizens from assaults by the protesters.
