It’s not quite clear what’s going on in the household of the Baloguns, but the updates Nigerians woke up to see by Tunji Balogun ‘Teebillz’, the husband of Tiwa Savage, is damning.

There have always been whispers from insiders that all is not well with their marriage, but these 10 posts on Instagram by Teebillz this morning indicate there is indeed fire on the mountain.

There are some that believe his account may have been hacked due to the bad grammar and typos in the rant which is unusual for Teebillz but again no hacker would have that amount of personal information .

Teebillz has not responded to our calls, text messages and emails, and a source in the Mavin camp has told us they are under instruction to maintain radio silence on the issue.
This is not the first time their marriage has been reported to been having troubles. In September 2014 it was widely reported that their marriage had crashed but they managed to work it out.

She’s happy and so am I.’ It however appears that many of their fans are not happy.

NIGERIA HAS IRON ORE RESERVES OF ABOUT 2BN METRIC TONNES BUT IT IMPORTS ALMOST ALL THE STEEL IT USES

Iron is the major component of steel; usually over 90 percent. Nigeria is the 12th largest iron ore resource country in the world and the second largest in Africa, but about 70 percent of the deposits are yet to be proven, notes Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo.

The vice president who spoke at the foundation laying ceremony of Kam Steel Integrated Complex at Jimba Oja, Kwara State, Nigeria, said the Nigerian government was “looking at options to solve the challenge, including synergising government capacity and private sector competencies for certifying existing deposits.”

Stressing that Nigeria has about 2 billion metric tonnes of iron ore reserve, Osinbajo said: “we must be extremely ambitious in our industrialization efforts,” adding that the need for increased levels of investment in Nigeria, “has never been more crucial than at this period in time.”

Nigeria is facing its worst economic crisis in years as government revenues have taken a plunge due to low oil prices, falling to N299 billion ($1.50 billion) in March from N345.095 billion ($1.73 billion) in February. The country depends on oil for about 70 percent of its revenue.

The aim of General Yakubu Gowon when he founded the National Steel Development Authority (NSDA) in 1971 while he was Head of State, to harness Nigeria’s iron ore reserves was to turn Nigeria into a global player in the steel industry; 45 years latter, billions of metric tonnes of the natural resource have not been unearthed. As a result, Nigeria presently imports 90 percent of its steel needs from China and others. Every year, the country consumes roughly six million tonnes of steel.

Alhaji Kamoru Yusuf who together with his wife established Nigeria’s first independently owned cold roll steel complex in the northern city of Ilorin, Kwara State, is encouraged by the ambitions of the present leadership in Nigeria which has made diversification of the economy a key objective and has disclosed two major areas of focus to be agriculture and solid minerals. Yusuf is, therefore, boldly expanding, with a new integrated steel complex.

Prof. Osinbajo stated that steel plays an important part in President Muhammadu Buhari administration’s economic agenda. He, therefore, called on other operators in the steel industry in the country to ensure Nigeria “becomes a net exporter of steel within the shortest possible time”.

Although, like several other commodities, iron ore price is falling, but having enough for local use will take huge foreign exchange burden off the country which has had to introduce restrictions to address its forex crisis.

The vice president also said that the federal Government has been putting in place the right macro-economic policies and is working to ensure an enabling environment for businesses to grow. “This is why the President has given clear instructions that we must make signifiant progress in the ease of doing business ranking this year,” he said.

“Diligent efforts are being undertaken to ensure this goal is achieved, including the setting up of an inter-ministerial committee, which has since commenced work with a very keen presidential oversight.”

BlackBerry PRIV now runs on Android Marshmallow

When BlackBerry introduced its first Android device last year, a couple of things militated against its adoption by lovers of Google’s operating system; it ran on v5.1.1 (Lollipop). Despite all its great qualities, many saw cheaper Android phones that ran on Android OS v6.0 (Marshmallow) as absolutely better. This is partly responsible for the poor market performance of the Blackberry PRIV.
The smartphone maker will be hoping its latest move changes things.

Blackberry has released the Android 6.0 Marshmallow (M) mobile operating system for PRIV, the first-ever BlackBerry smartphone fully powered by Android. PRIV with Android M is now available on ShopBlackBerry.com. Existing PRIV users will be able to upgrade to Android M by downloading the software update on their device.

Android Marshmallow on PRIV brings users more ways to improve their mobile security by providing new opportunities to monitor and control privacy with its unique DTEK app. Users will obtain greater productivity through enhancements to the BlackBerry keyboard, BlackBerry Hub, BlackBerry launcher and battery performance. Updates to the BlackBerry camera will foster their creativity.

“PRIV by BlackBerry is the most secure Android device in the market and we continue to find ways to further enhance users’ security and privacy by adding new features with the Marshmallow operating system update,” ‎said John Chen, Executive Chairman and CEO, BlackBerry.

Building on BlackBerry’s legacy of security and keeping customer data private, DTEK by BlackBerry has been updated to empower users with more ways to monitor and control their privacy better protecting PRIV from malware, hacks and data breaches.

16 Budget: Buhari, National Assembly leaders meet, resolve differences

President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday night held a closed-door meeting with the leadership of the National Assembly to find solution to the 2016 budget.

A source said that the presidency is highly dissatisfied with the manner the budget sent by the Senate was distorted, with figures allocated to projects cut, making it difficult for the administration to perform if the budget was approved by Buhari..

Mr. Buhari, who received the budget passed by the National Assembly two weeks ago, declined to assent to it, claiming it was distorted by the National Assembly.
The president later returned the document to the Assembly, saying some grey areas needed to be reviewed.

Mr. Buhari had earlier on Tuesday met separately with the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, before an enlarged meeting involving the President of the Senate, Bukola Saraki, and other principal officers followed.
The meeting was held at the Presidential villa, in Abuja.
Mr. Saraki, who spoke briefly with State House correspondents after the meeting, said the executive and legislative arms had now found a way of resolving all the grey areas in the budget.
He said a committee to carry out the task was formed with membership drawn from both the presidency and the National Assembly.

“We came to work out the solutions that we found in moving the budget process forward and we are happy to say that we have agreed on the way forward, and we believe that this process will be completed in a matter of days rather than weeks,” Mr. Saraki said.
The Senate President also said in a matter of days, the budget would be ready for the president’s assent.

Mr. Saraki added that the committee formed “will engage over the next few days, to just tidy up a few loose ends and ensure that the outcome is satisfactory to everyone.”
The Minister of Budget and National Planning, Udoma Udo Udoma, who was also at the meeting, confirmed that the two arms of government “resolved all issues”, adding that an agreement was reached on the modalities of resolving the issues.
“It was a very good meeting, very positive and within the next few days all issues will be resolved,” Mr. Udoma said.
“We are working together, both the executive and the legislature, to sort those things out and within the next few days all matters will be resolved,” he said.
