Obama appoints 34-yr-old Nigerian, Adewale Adeyemo as deputy NSA

U S President Barack Obama has appointed a Nigerian, Adewale ‘Wally’ Adeyemo who served in top roles at the Treasury Department to succeed Caroline Atkinson as his deputy national security adviser for international economic affairs.

A statement by Obama reads “For the past four years, I have relied on Caroline Atkinson, most recently as my Deputy National Security Advisor for International Economics, as we’ve navigated pressing challenges to the global economy.

“As my representative at the G-7 and G-20, she played a key role in coordinating our response to international financial crises, worked with our allies to devise and implement targeted economic sanctions to advance our national security goals, played a vital role in our economic engagements with China, and helped to achieve breakthrough agreements on climate that will strengthen our economy and our security.

“I’ve relied on, and benefited from, Caroline’s knowledge and judgment and, as she concludes her tenure on my national security team, I am deeply appreciative of her service.

“I am grateful that Caroline’s work will be carried on by Adewale “Wally” Adeyemo, who has served in my administration since 2009.

I will be calling on Wally’s intellect, judgment and dedication as we sustain America’s global economic leadership, which reinforces our national security, and as we work with allies and partners around the world to create jobs and opportunity for all our people.”

Adeyemo holds a B.A. from the University of California, Berkeley and another degree from Yale Law School.

Tasks multi-national companies on tourism promotion

The Director–General Nigerian Tourism Development, (NTDC), Chief Sally Mbanefo has called on multi–national companies and network providers to show more concern at promoting the tourism potentialities of this country.

Chief Mbanefo who made this call during her visit to Badagry Slave Trade Museum pointed out “Nigeria has huge potentialities in the tourism sector. The Federal Government is trying at making sure that the sector grows despite the financial crunch being experienced because of fluctuation in the price of crude since two years ago. However, I am not comfortable with the passive posture of major multi–national companies and the network providers towards the tourism sector”.
She said: “The financing of tourism projects and sites should not be totally hung on the neck of the Federal Government. There are many companies that are direct beneficiaries of the sector, these companies must be tasked and ensure that they play their parts at developing the sector”.
Chief Mbanefo pointed “It is apparent that oil companies are the major beneficiaries of the tourism industry. Tourism lubricates the wheel of the oil industry. There will be major problem if travellers refused to travel and the masses decided to shun vehicles by embarking on travel strike, the oil sector will collapse”.
She added: “It will be a good step if 50 multi – national companies can adopt 50 tourism sites and develop them in the spirit of Corporate Social Responsibility, (CSR). These companies will not do this in vain as they too will be eligible to a certain percentage of the revenue from the sites “
Chief Mbanefo opined “It is high time the Federal Government tasked or compelled particularly the major network providers to adopt a tourism site like Ipole Iloro Waterfall or Ozimini Blue River in Abia or the Assop Fall in Jos. These network providers make the chunk of their fortune from tourism. “
She pointed out “Cell phone is one of the most important items a tourist has, the tourists make more calls to their families and friends when they are out of area of domicile. Unless while roaming, a typical tourist will seek first the SIM package of the host countries and other things will follow. Thus, the network provider should be compelled to adopt a tourist centre and develop it to international standard”.
Chief Mbanefo who was conducted on a tour of the Slave Trade Museum nearly broke down in tears when Anago, the curator at the Museum recapped the harrowing experience of the victims of the slave trade
Anago explained that the slave trade period was the darkest period in the annals of the history of the Yoruba who were major participants and victims of the trade.
Anago revealed “It was a time of pure wickedness when 40 able bodied, healthy and strong men were the barter commodity for an Umbrella!”
On getting to the rooms where the 40 slaves were quartered before they were shipped to Europe, Chief Mbanefo shed tears and prayed for the souls of those who were victims of the trade.
Chief Mbanefo commanded the National Commission for Museum and Monument ( NCMM) for safe keeping of those items which she called “Historical and informative irreplaceable items of history .
She pointed out “This is one of the emotionally stoking tourism sites. The items here are wonderful, but still need better branding and showcasing. The NTDC is ready and willing to form a synergy of purpose at promoting this site.”

PMB, Tourism mustn’t die in Nigeria

The scrapping or merging of some ministries by President Mohammed Buhari in his efforts at scaling down the cost of governance , reducing overlapping in government agencies and lubricating the wheel of operation of the civil service for optimum performance and national development is apt , right and welcomed. Truly, there are some of these ministries which can justifiably function while in alliance with others without duplicating offices and personnel.
However, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism with its nine parastatals is definitely not one of the ministries which should be merged with another ministry because of what it stands to plant, grow, nurture and showcase.
Thus, the scrapping of the hitherto Ministry of Culture and Tourism is not only an anathema to the development of tourism in Nigeria, but one of the faux pax which I believe this regime has committed which I hope it could be redressed very soon .
It is unfortunate that Ministry of Culture and Tourism Ministry had to go which is one of the youngest Ministries out of all.
The defunct ministry was not just created as an avenue for the jobless boys, but as a result of the necessity of growing the tourism industry as an alternate to oil.
Chief Olusegun Obasanjo who had passion for tourism not just because he saw it as an entertainment or recreation driving sector but a sector, if properly grounded has the wondrous capacity to empower , generate employment , mobilise fund and serve, as an alternate revenue to oil.
Chief Obasanjo knew the essence of having a separate ministry for the tourism and culture sector as obtains in other countries that are tourism consious explore and exploit the sector for the development of their countries.
And before Chief Obasanjo’s tenure, tourism has no permanent ministry. It was either with Ministry of Commerce or Ministry of Information and under these ministries; the highest categorisation for tourism has a mere department while the permanent secretary was the highest officer for all.
Chief Obasanjo then created the Ministry relying on ad hoc committee’s report he initiated to look into ways to enhance the tourism industry and groom it to a level of world acceptance and patronage.
The informal committee made many suggestions and underscored the need to have a separate Ministry for Culture and Tourism.
The committee pointed out that one of the ways to grow , nurture and mobilise the numerous tourism resources available in this country for national development and growth is to “create a separate from Ministry to drive the vision of Mr President on tourism”.
The committee listed 20 countries which today reap bountifully from tourism and emphasised that separate ministry was created in this country solely for tourism to drive the economic potentialities in culture, entertainment, recreation, wildlife and others.
The countries are: Australia, New South Wales, Western Australia, Brazil, Bahamas, Croatia, Canada, Ontario, France, Greece, Hong Kong, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Lebanon, Malaysia, Peru, Philippines, Israel, Mauritius, New Zealand, Pakistan, Thailand, Trinidad and Tobago, United Kingdom, Vietnam.
In Ghana, the ministry was created in 1993 to promote, develop and coordinate tourism related activities in the country. In 2003, under John Kuffuor’s administration, the ministry’s name was changed to the Ministry of Tourism and Modernisation of the capital city. This was due to the expansion of the ministry’s portfolio to include the development of Accra into a modern international capital city. The ministry had another name in change to the Ministry of Tourism and Diasporan Relations. In 2009, the John Atta Mills administration reverted the name of the ministry back to the Ministry of Tourism.
Ghana has only six notable and well kept, internationally branded tourism sites and maintained a separate ministry for Tourism and the result is that last year only, the country made one billion dollars revenue from tourism.
Chief Obasanjo created a separate Ministry for Culture and Tourism in 2000 and matched his passion with guts, vision and direction.
The ministry’s first minister, Chief Ojo Maduekwe laid the foundation for the industry which consecutive ministers built on.
It was because of the fact that there was a fully fledged ministry with a minister and even a minister of State who were all members of the Executive Council that enabled the sector achieved much under Chief Obasanjo,
It is to the credit of the ministry and the ministers then that, Nigeria was not only admitted to the Commonwealth Tourism Ministers Committee but was within four years of it’s existence, it hosted the Commonwealth Tourism Ministers’ Conference.
Chief Maduekwe was able to push some reforms with his clout at the Executive Council meeting such as 48 hours visa for intending tourists to Nigeria, abolition of embarrassing road block being mounted then by officers security, Immigration and Customs which was seen then as encumbrance to travel and tourism.

Chief Obasanjo inaugurated the Presidential Council on Tourism which was not only visible, but active throughout his tenure.
Throughout Chief Obasanjo’s tenure, tourism was not only given a pride of place, but declared as one of the six preferred sectors.
And it was so.
And then, Nigeria’s image soared to high heaven and wielded a respect in the comity of tourism nations.
Though the passion with which Chief Obasanjo drove the tourism sector was not the same by his successors in office, yet they were able to retain the ministry with its nine parastatals. .
Though President Muhammed Buhari has no tourism agenda, but bearing in mind his ability as an efficient person and people’s expectation that he is coming to make things work, no one expected him to scrap or merge the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.
The expectation of President Buhari was fuelled by his body language after his meeting with the officials of the ministry where he assured that his government would soon be inaugurating a Tourism Development Fund.
It was a shock to all that the Ministry of Culture and Tourism was never considered as worthy of those ministries that survived the onslaught of merger.
What the stakeholders were expecting was a reinforced Ministry of Culture and Tourism which will include National Parks, while National Orientation which should go to Ministry of Information.
By not having a separate Ministry for Culture and Tourism with a substantive minister , it has relegated Nigeria to the lowest step in the global tourism ladder and debar it from having a say of reference at the comity of tourism countries in the world .
Also, Nigeria will not have the strong latitude to negotiate and host International Tourism Summit like African Tourism Ministera’ Conference, Commonwealth Tourism Minister Conference and negotiate talks at G20 Tourism Ministers Group.
For now, Tourism has no designated ministry except Culture which has been effectively taken control of by the Ministry of Information, National Orientation and Culture.
However, the situation is not out of hope. The President can still rise up and transform the relics of the ministry to a strong Tourism Commission which will be under the presidency with the Nigerian Tourism Development Corporation, (NTDC) as the arrow head of the nine parastatals including National Parks and Wildlife.

EU plans new border guard to stem migration

New

UNDER PRESSURE: German Chancellor Angela Merkel holds a toy wolf she got as a present during a party convention of the Christian Democrats (CDU) in Karlsruhe, Germany. Merkel faces a congress of her conservative party amid tensions over her management of the migrant influx. (AP)

BRUSSELS/STRASBOURG: The European Union will nearly treble its spending on frontier defense provided by a new European Border and Coast Guard under proposals unveiled on Tuesday to tackle a migration crisis that threatens Europe’s security and passport-free travel area.

If approved by governments, the new body will replace the EU’s Frontex agency and have expanded powers, including keeping a 1,500-strong rapid reaction force on standby. It will have funding worth 322 million euros ($354 million) by 2020, up from the 114 million euros originally budgeted for this year.
With Greece and Italy struggling to control hundreds of thousands of people, including Syrian refugees, the bloc’s executive the European Commission proposes taking the power to deploy EU forces without the consent of the member state concerned — an idea that has already hit resistance in national capitals and which many see as impractical.
However, frustration among northern powers, including France and Germany, at failures by Greece and Italy to document and screen masses of people arriving by boat from Turkey and Africa has driven demands for more central European control of the external frontiers of Europe’s borderless Schengen zone.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel faces pressure over her management of the migrant influx.
Concern that the Daesh attack on Paris last month was also carried out in part by militants who had traveled along the migration route from Syria via Turkey and Greece has also increased pressure for tighter checks on the frontiers.
The Commission proposal says the EU agency overseeing the frontiers should be able to “intervene immediately in crisis situations” and deploy border guards from the standby pool drawn from other national border guard forces.
However, EU officials stressed that national governments would be able to block that if a majority of them were against.
“We don’t replace member states’ responsibilities and definitely not their sovereignty,” Migration Commissioner Dimitris Avramopoulos told the European Parliament.
“What we are creating today is more Europe,” Avramopoulos said in statement. “To manage our external borders, to step up returns of irregular migrants, to allow our asylum system to function properly for this in need and to strengthen checks at the external borders.”
The budget of Frontex has already been increased three times this year to stand at 143 million euros for 2015. That will increase to 238 million euros for next year.
The current staffing of Frontex, which serves to coordinate national border agencies, is around 400. That will more than double to 1,000 by 2020, including field operatives. In addition, member states will have to put at least a total of 1,500 personnel on standby for deployment within days.
The new body will also have a dedicated Returns Office with the task of stepping up deportations of those who fail to qualify for asylum.
Tuesday’s proposals may be discussed by EU leaders when they meet in Brussels on Thursday and Friday for a summit, although the short time for preparation means such talks will be brief.
