This week, we will closely examine the inference of the sum of $8.9bn (about N1.4tn) that NNPC confirmed it legitimately retained as fuel subsidy between January 2012 and July 2013! SUBSIDY-EXPRESSWe recall that the National Assembly approved “an additional sum of N161.6bn to augment the initial N881bn voted for subsidy in 2012; thus, total fuel subsidy approved for 2012 was presumed to be about N1.05tn (i.e. more than 20% of the total budgeted expenditure of N4.7tn) for that year.”

3year old girl beaten black and blue by 2 year old classmate - Pics
This story is so bizarre & pics of the injured child are horrific. Don't understand why a school would refuse to remove a child known to fight and injure other children. And how can a child be so violent at just 2? Most importantly where were the school staff when the attack took place? Story below..
The mother of a little girl who was beaten black and blue by an 'out-of-control' two-year-old at nursery has called for the child's expulsion. Katie Ann Guttridge, aged three, sustained a bruised eye socket, scratches and three bite marks when she was attacked by her classmate during playtime at Ratby Pre-School Nursery in Leicester. The little girl's mother, Clara Mackow, said her daughter was almost blinded in the attack and that her injuries were so bad that she was taken to hospital with a suspected broken eye socket.

EU wants Russian energy but rejects Moscow integration efforts in Eurasia.
Not
two days, but only two hours are allocated now for the partners to
discuss the key issues of interactions between Russia and the European
Union. Moscow and Brussels have agreed that consideration of the details
of numerous joint projects could wait, and they needed to focus on the
issues of strategic partnership.
The
matter will, of course, concern the economy and more specifically –
energy, trade, international obligations and neighborly policy. It is
unlikely that the President of Russia and his European colleagues will
be able to avoid a conversation about the situation in Ukraine in the
light of the last months’ events. The matter is that the European Union
categorically rejects Moscow’s integration efforts in the Eurasian
region, expert of the Institute of Europe Vladislav Belov says.
