Buhari, Oil Workers Meet To Tackle Petrol Scarcity

Ibe-Kachikwu-Petroleum-minister on petrol scarcityPresident Muhammadu Buhari has held a meeting with the leaders of the NUPENG and PENGASSAN behind closed doors in the Presidential Villa, Abuja to promote peace and harmony in the oil and gas sector.
Briefing reporters after the meeting on Wednesday, the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, said the meeting reviewed the oil industry and looked at how to end the petrol scarcity.
He said that the President, who had headed the sector before, shared some of his thoughts and possible solutions to the challenges.
Dr Kachikwu told reporters that the government was looking to see how it could get foreign exchange input to help in cushioning the crisis of petroleum supply.
“The President and I discussed extensively this morning and we talked about how to allocate more crude because His Excellency will rather have less crude, but having individuals in the society not suffer than have more crude and have them continue to suffer.
“We are going to put a new model to enable us increase the pace and actually get measures, as part of the crude that we are entitled to, to apply some of those to bringing in more product so that the role of the NNPC will go back to what it has the capacity to do.
“If we do that, I will expect that over the next two months we should see quite frankly, an elimination of this,” he explained, referring to the petrol scarcity currently being experienced across the oil-rich nation.
“Make Nigerians Smile Again”
He further said that the government’s strategy in tackling the shortfall of supply was to reserve some refined products.
“Whatever is produced in the refinery will not go for sale. We are going to put that into strategic reserve.
“The key problem here is, because there is no reserve, anytime there is a gap in supply it hits us,” he stated.
The President is said to have tasked the workers in the oil sector to be agents of change and to ensure they take change on its head and make it happen.
The National President of Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas (NUPENG), Igwe Aghaeze, said they discussed the issue of the petrol scarcity and the Petroleum Industry Bill at the meeting.
“We discussed how the oil sector will bounce back economically and make Nigerians smile again.
“Keenly we talked much more on the issues of the corruption in the oil and gas sector vis-a-vis the product allocations which we (NUPENG and PENGASSAN)  are trying to do together.
He said that the President assured the unions that they would be part of the restructuring that would be made to address the issues and ensure that scarcity is out of Nigeria’s fuel service stations.
On his part, the President of Petroleum and Natural Gas‎ Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN), Olabode Johnson, also recognised the fact that the President was not new in the sector and expressed optimism that he was capable of introducing the magic wand that would change the ugly situation.
Nigerians will be watching and waiting to see the queues disappear completely in a country said to be one of the biggest oil producers in the world.
It is only then that they will believe that the meeting had a fruitful deliberation.

Legend Austin ‘Jay Jay’ Okocha was impressed by the shift put in by his nephew Alex Iwobi in Arsenal’s 3-1 defeat to Barcelona on Wednesday.
Okocha was present at Camp Nou to watch the game.

With the Gunners facing obvious elimination against the Champions League holders after their first leg 2-0 defeat in London, manager Arsene Wenger opted to start 19-year-old Iwobi ahead of the pair of Theo Walcott and Joel Campbell.
The Nigeria international put in a good shift in his 72 minutes on the pitch where he missed an opportunity to score and was also denied a penalty call.

Skye Bank’s CEO advocates investment in manufacturing

Skye Bank’s CEO advocates investment in manufacturing
Group Managing Director/CEO of Skye Bank Plc, Timothy Oguntayo, has called for massive investment in the manufacturing, agriculture and extractive industries for the success of the diversification program of the government.
He spoke during  a ‘Roundtable session on the Manufacturing outlook for 2016’ organised by the Dr. Biodun Adedipe led BAA Associates in Lagos.
Oguntayo, who was Lead panelist at the roundtable; said he has identified three sectors that are critical to the success of the economic diversification agenda of the government in view of the dwindling oil prices, low GDP growth, and rising unemployment in the country.
He said hitherto, the manufacturing sector contributed 10 per cent of Gross Domestic Product before the advent of oil boom of the 1970s, but lamented Nigeria’s overdependence on oil export and earnings from the 1990s to date.
He said the over dependence on oil resulted in the neglect of the manufacturing sector; just as low investment in public goods and infrastructure led to the decline in manufacturing activities.
To reverse the negative trend, he recommended the expansion of public infrastructure like road, electricity, among others to promote manufacturing. In addition, he advised manufacturers to access the earmarked N200 billion Central Bank of Nigeria and N200 billion Bank of Industry’s intervention funds to boost their operations.
Noting that commercial banks were not structured to provide long term funding but bridge finance, he said the Bank of Industry and NEXIM Bank should be strengthened to provide long term funding for manufacturers

BBM finally released on Android, iPhone

BBM finally released on Android, iPhone
Blackberry has finally resumed the rolling out of  BlackBerry Messenger mobile social messaging service (BBM) on  iPhone and Android apps.
The company said in a blog post that the free BBM apps will start showing up in Google Play, Apple App Store and some Samsung App Stores.
In order to make sure all goes smoothly, you’ll need to line up for a spot by visiting BBM.com from your phone’s browser and entering your information. You’ll get an email when your turn comes up.
If you have already signed up at bbm.com you should be able to start using the app immediately.
Last month, the company paused the rollout of the apps after an unreleased version of the Android app was posted online. About a million Android users jumped in within seven hours to grab that version, which the company pulled back.
In the blog post, the company noted that more than a million people also found a way to “sideload” BBM onto iPhones.
In May, the struggling Canadian firm announced that it would be rolling out BBM, perhaps the company’s most popular service, to other mobile platforms. It had been exclusive to BlackBerry smartphones. The service features BBM Chat for instant messaging with other users. Additionally, each user has a unique PIN, so you don’t have to give out your phone number to use the service – a privacy feature.
The company has slashed 4,500 jobs in a last-ditch move to recharge itself. It has so far failed to invigorate its business despite unveiling a new smartphone line and software in January. The company is now an acquisition target

Apple Leak Confirms Massive New iPhone 7

Question: How many new iPhone models does Apple release each year? It used to be one, then two when Apple launched the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. Well now in 2016 it is going to be four  
Looking to consolidate his reputation as “the best Apple analyst on the planet”, KGI Securities’ Ming-Chi Kuo is at it again. In a research note obtained by MacRumors Kuo has reaffirmed that Apple will indeed release three models of the iPhone 7 this year in addition to the imminent 4-inch ‘iPhone SE’.
Consequently the three iPhone 7 models will be the 4.7-inch iPhone 7, 5.5-inch iPhone 7 Plus and a new and even more premium model based around (already huge) Plus which some are dubbing the ‘iPhone 7 Pro’. What’s the difference between the Pro (I’ll go with the name for now) and the Plus? A groundbreaking camera.
In fact, I should say groundbreaking ‘cameras’ because Kuo says the iPhone 7 Pro will use a dual-lens camera system created by LinX, an imaging specialist Apple purchased in 2015.
My fellow Forbes’ contributor Paul Monckton has already broken down LinX technology in detail, but the short version is it promises huge steps forward in speed and low light shots as well as the ability to incorporate a 2-3x optical zoom. The latter is potentially a major differentiator for Apple given the opportunity to build on the success of its ‘Shot on iPhone’ marketing campaign.
Recommended by Forbes
Kuo says LinX dual-lens technology also allows the camera module to be very thin so the iPhone 7 Pro may eliminate the range’s infamous camera bulge.
But why would Apple consider fragmenting its iPhone range just to put a better camera into a third iPhone 7 model? Why not equip all iPhone 7 models with the technology or, if it must be split, offer it in the Plus and not the standard iPhone 7? After all there’s a precedent there. The iPhone 6 and 6S already lag behind the iPhone 6/6S Plus cameras due to their lack of optical image stabilisation (OIS).










Kuo states the reason for making the third model simply comes down to supply constraints. Apple can’t produce the LinX camera modules in enough quantity so it will create a third smartphone just to get the technology to the market in more limited quantities.
And it is this last detail which, for me, raises questions.
Brilliance Or Madness?
Some may think a third super premium iPhone 7 is a great idea which allows Apple to cash in, but personally I think fragmenting the iPhone line is a bad idea and something Apple should avoid at all costs. With the iPhone SE, iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus (and potentially ongoing sales of the iPhone 5S) there’s already enough variety and an iPhone 7 Pro would only serve to confuse customers.

So why is Apple doing it? It must think either a) LinX technology is so impressive customers need to see it and be blown away, or b) it will cover for limitations in Apple’s standard camera technology which fell behind Samsung’s Galaxy S6, especially as the gap is about to widen further with the Galaxy S7.
If it is the latter and Apple already knows its high volume, more conventional camera technology in the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus can’t match the Galaxy S7 then perhaps Apple feels it needs a limited edition flagship which can match or even surpasses Samsung’s efforts and become the posterchild for marketing.
Of course the other angle is Kuo is simply wrong. But given over the last 18 months he broke news of the radical 12-inch MacBook, iPad Pro (including launch), the shift to 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch screen sizes with the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus and nailed every major feature of the iPhone 6S four months ahead of its launch this seems unlikely.
As such I’ll be monitoring this very closely indeed…
