Naija News reports that the new tax bills introduced by Tinubu’s administration have generated widespread controversy and pushback from many Nigerians, including the 36 state governors under the aegis of the National Economic Council (NEC). Similarly, some Nothern governors unequivocally rejected sections of the bills. However, Sowunmi, during an interview with Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, faulted Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC) for appointing his tribesmen as finance minister, revenue boss, governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and tax reform chair. He stated that though the tax bills were good, the President created distrust and made other regions nervous due to the exclusion of their kinsmen from his economic and tax teams. The PDP chieftain added that Tinubu needed to tell the northerners about the tax reform bills in clear language. He said, “They created it by themselves. You can’t have FIRS chairman Yoruba, finance (minister) Yoruba, Customs (boss) Yoruba, CBN (governor) Yoruba. You can’t do that. And then suddenly, the Yoruba people came and said we have a new tax regime. They (people of other tribes) will be nervous. “People are not in the National Assembly or the Senate not to protect the interest of their people; that’s why they are there. They are representatives of their people. That’s why the pushbacks will come. “You may mean well but let me have some of my own seated at the table to be sure that you mean well. Nobody will sit at the table and cause injury to his tribe. “I think the President needs to tell them in very clear language that I won’t be sitting here as president and refusing to do the right thing for the country only because you want to threaten me with elections. When we get to the bridge of election, we will cross it.”French President Emmanuel Macron has named François Bayrou his fourth prime minister of 2024, tasking the veteran centrist with steering the country out of its second major political crisis in the last six months. The 73-year-old was appointed nine days after parliament ousted former prime minister Michel Barnier's government in a historic no-confidence vote following a standoff over his attempts to pass a cost-cutting 2025 budget. "The president of the Republic has appointed Mr. François Bayrou as prime minister and tasked him with forming a government," the presidency said. Bayrou is the sixth prime minister of Macron's mandate, with his predecessor Barnier, France's shortest-serving premier, having lasted only three months. Three times a presidential candidate himself, in 2002, 2007 and 2012 — and long cited as an obvious choice for Macron as head of government — he finally has his chance . What is Bayrou's background? Bayrou, 73, heads the liberal Democratic Movement (MoDem) party which is allied to, but not part of, Macron's centrist force and has supported the president ever since his victorious 2017 election campaign. He was named justice minister by Macron when he took the presidency in 2017. He resigned the same year when a legal case was opened against him over the alleged fraudulent employment of parliamentary assistants by his party, but remained a key behind-the-scenes ally. Bayrou was acquitted in February after the seven-year-long case, with the judge ruling that he was owed the "benefit of the doubt". His acquittal opened up a potential return to government. Bayrou has had a long and varied political career, during which he has worked with former right-wing presidents Valery Giscard d'Estaing and Jacques Chirac before backing Socialist Francois Hollande in 2012. Mayor of the southwestern city of Pau, Bayrou is a practising Catholic but also a staunch supporter of France's secular system. Source: AAP, EPA / Teresa Suarez He gained notoriety during his 2002 presidential campaign when he slapped the face of a child who tried to pick his pocket. He won less than 7 per cent of the vote and was eliminated in the first round. The father of six children, Bayrou is also the author of a biography of the 16th- and 17th-century French king Henry IV. What challenges does Bayrou face? Bayrou will have to navigate a tricky course as the sixth prime minister of Macron's presidency. Each successive premier has served for a shorter period than their predecessor and, given the composition of the National Assembly lower house, there is no guarantee that Barnier's successor will last any longer than the three months that the right-winger was in office. His immediate priority will be passing a special law to roll over the 2024 budget, with a nastier battle over the 2025 legislation looming early next year. Parliamentary pushback over Barnier's 2025 bill led to his downfall, and progressive leaders announced on Friday that they might try to topple Bayrou as well should he use special constitutional powers to ram through the budget. Source: AAP, EPA / Teresa Suarez Barnier's budget bill, which aimed for 60 billion euros ($99 billion) in savings to assuage investors increasingly concerned by France's 6 per cent deficit, was deemed too miserly by the parties on the right and left extremes. In a speech alongside Barnier on Friday, Bayrou acknowledged the challenge. "Nobody knows the difficulty of the situation better than I do ... I am not unaware of the Himalaya that stands before us," he said. "I believe that this issue, the deficit and debt, is an issue that poses a moral problem, not just a financial one." He will be tasked with holding dialogue with all political forces except the far-right National Rally (RN) and hard-left France Unbowed (LFI) parties "in order to find conditions for stability and action", a member of Macron's team said on Friday. Bayrou's proximity to the deeply unpopular Macron may prove to be a vulnerability. Source: Getty / Julien de Rosa The Socialist Party, which Macron courted during his prime ministerial search, accused the president of ignoring their demands for a leftist leader in favour of a "risky" Macronista. "We will thus not enter the government and remain in the opposition," said Boris Vallaud, the leader of the Socialists' parliamentary bloc. Reaction to Bayrou's appointment on the left will be a concern for Macron, with the prime minister likely living day to day at the mercy of the president's opponents for the foreseeable future. Leaders of France Unbowed said they would be seeking to remove Bayrou immediately, while leaders from other progressive parties took a more nuanced approach. Greens boss Marine Tondelier also said she would support a no-confidence motion if the prime minister ignored their tax and pensions concerns. Communist leader Fabien Roussel said his party would hold fire against Bayrou and decide on a case-by-case basis if he promises not to ram through legislation. Jordan Bardella, president of the National Rally party, said it would not be calling for an immediate no-confidence motion, while fellow RN leader Marine Le Pen said Bayrou should listen to the opposition's budgetary wishes. Macron will hope Bayrou can stave off no-confidence votes until at least July, when France will be able to hold a new parliamentary election.

Pioneering graphene-enriched carbon fiber production in Saudi Arabia: OCH and GIM drive Vision 2030 forwardSTARKVILLE, Miss. (AP) — Josh Hubbard scored 14 of his team-high 25 points in the final 10 minutes and Mississippi State pulled away late to post a 91-84 win over a road-weary Prairie View A&M on Sunday afternoon. Prairie View A&M, playing its eighth straight road game after a season-opening win over a non-NCAA opponent, will not play its second home game until it hosts Grambling in the Southwestern Athletic Conference opener January 4. The Panthers have surrendered 100 points or more in three games and opponents have topped 90 points in seven of their eight road losses. Mississippi State (8-1), fresh off a dominating performance in a 90-57 win over No. 18 Pitt in the SEC/ACC Men's Challenge, got all it could handle from the Panthers. The teams were tied at the break at 44-44 and Tanahj Pettway hit from deep to give Prairie View the lead, 65-64 midway through the second half. The Bulldogs responded with a 16-2 run kick-started by a pair of Josh Hubbard layups and a Claudell Harris Jr., 3 and capped by a Hubbard 3 and a Jordan Tillmon layup to take an 80-68 lead with under five minutes to play. Hubbard hit 4 of 10 from beyond the arc and had three assists and a pair of steals. Harris came off the bench to hit 3 of 6 from deep to add 21 points. Shawn Jones Jr. scored 11 points, Michael Nwoko scored 10 points and grabbed 10 boards and RJ Melendez had 10 points. Nick Anderson led the Panthers with 21 points and four assists. Pettway hit 4 of 5 from deep and finished with 20 points while Marcel Bryant added 19 points, seven rebounds, three assists and two steals.

AP college basketball: https://apnews.com/hub/ap-top-25-college-basketball-poll and https://apnews.com/hub/college-basketballOne of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s prosecutors was attacked and robbed in her apartment, allegedly by a Venezuelan migrant with ties to the dangerous Tren de Aragua gang, reports say. The New York Police Department arrested Brandon Simosa — who also goes by Brandon Jesus Simoza Seijas –outside the Row Hotel migrant shelter in Midtown Manhattan on Tuesday, and charged him in the robbery of Bragg’s employee, the New York Post reported. According to a police report, the assistant prosecutor caught the 25-year-old Simosa masturbating in the hallway of her apartment building and when she confronted him, he attacked her. The incident occurred at around two a.m. on Sunday. Simosa fled the 44th Street apartment building with the prosecutor’s phone, which police traced to the migrant shelter. The migrant was charged with sexually motivated robbery, grand larceny, and criminal possession of stolen property, police said. Police are unsure of the suspect’s recent history, when he came to New York City, and where he has been living. The only address reported was a taxpayer-funded migrant shelter in Queens. But federal records state he crossed into the U.S. at Eagle Pass, Texas, in October 2023. Federal records show that he was taken into custody by ICE upon entering the country but was quickly released with a notice to appear before an immigration judge in New York City. He was also set to be deported, but federal authorities threw out the case in February without explanation. Despite the reversal of his deportation order, Simosa has also amassed a lengthy arrest record in New York City. He has been arrested for assault, grand larceny, robbery, retail theft, and even transit incidents. Several of his cases are still outstanding, including his arrest for a November 11 incident at a Times Square CVS, an August 5 arrest for grand larceny at a Macy’s store, and a robbery at a Flushing supermarket on June 13. The Manhattan DA is the far-left Democrat prosecutor who attempted to prosecute President-elect Donald Trump. The former president has called for an “immediate dismissal” of the Manhattan DA’s charges in Bragg’s business records case against Trump. Bragg is also being criticized for prosecuting Marine veteran Daniel Penny whom he is charging in the death of Jordan Neely, a homeless man who threatened subway passengers. To many, Penny is an American hero who deserves to be praised for helping keep people safe from a dangerous man who threatened to kill people.
