TAN…the transformation continues

TAN =N=30,000 monthly salary for Nigerian Graduate?!

There is this information going round and becoming viral on the internet that Nigerian Graduates could earn thirty thousand Naira or in some cases Fifty Thousand Naira if selected in a process after registering as a ONE STAR AMBASSADOR on TAN WEBSITE here is a version of the message




"inform any graduate or student you know to go online and register here http://tan.org.ng/onestar/register.php?id=65583. If successfully selected, the government will be paying them N30,000 monthly for 1year. Companies, organizations and institutions can also register and interns will be sent to them, while government pays the interns N30,000. Please spread the news: See it as an Income/Job opportunity. let's give it a try by registeringTransformation Ambassadors of Nigeria "




The Transformation ambassadors of Nigeria (TAN) according to the description on their Facebook fan page is " a non partisan group designed to promote good governance ,individuals of character, fostering the continuation of the transformation by GEJ Goodluck Ebele Jonathan " . i sincerely doubt the information above as it is mos agenda byt likely a misleading one, first TAN is a Non-governmental political organization planning a rally and planning to mobilize thousands of Nigerian citizens to support the political ambition of President Goodluck jonathan in the 2015 presidential election. the organization has many incentives which includes TAN's short movie script competition promising prizes for winners of the said competition but the information that thirty thousand Naira is to be paid by Government for those "selected" as One star ambassadors is most unlikely.


TAN is set up to promote the ambition of the incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan so at best the false information that Graduates will earn thirty thousand Naira could be a ploy (perhaps not directly by the organisation ) to increase the number of people mobilized or registered to support the reelection campaign of the president . The TAN organization has dissociated itself from such propaganda on numerous occasions on itsTWITTER HANDLE https://twitter.com/TANconnectgroup and also on it FACEBOOK PAGE    https://www.facebook.com/tannigeria  its definitely a HOAX.

FIFA lifts suspension of Nigerian football federation

FIFA has today, 18 July 2014, lifted the suspension that was imposed on the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) on 9 July 2014 on account of interference.

FIFA has noted that the  proceedings and order of a high court in Jos Nigeria preventing the president of the Nigerian Football federation(NFF), the NFF Executive Committee members and the NFF Congress from running the affairs of Nigerian football that prompted the suspension have been vacated.

As statutory order has been reinstated at the NFF and the legitimate bodies reinstalled, FIFA has decided to lift the suspension as of today, Friday 18 July 2014.

The lifting of the suspension means that all rights of the NFF as a FIFA member as defined in article 12 of the FIFA Statutes are reinstated.  Which affects MEMBERS RIGHTS Members’ rights under the said article 12 and Nigeria now hall all these rights restored.

1. Members have the following rights:

 a) to take part in the Congress;

 b) to draw up proposals for inclusion in the agenda of the Congress;

 c) to nominate candidates for the FIFA presidency;12 II. MEMBERSHIP

 d) to take part in competitions organised by FIFA; 

 e) to take part in FIFA’s assistance and development programmes;

 f) to exercise all other rights arising from these Statutes and other 

regulations.

2. The exercise of these rights is subject to other provisions in these Statutes 

and the applicable regulations.

The implication is that Nigeria is now free to participate in U-20 Women's world cup, and also the Under 17 African football championship qualifiers 

This is a good development for Nigerian football, though it is believed that the last is yet to be heard on the NFF issue as the embattled  Aminu- Maigari led board earlier sacked and now reinstated is likely to be eventually removed   by due process, following FIFA rules and regulations.
