He has since turned that dream into reality and is the CEO of Shoespeed Interglobal Services Limited. He has trained over 500 people in shoemaking and hopes to start an academy for Shoemakers. The 35 years old Shoemaker speaks about growing business from the scratch. What spurred you into shoemaking? My love for shoemaking was born out of three major reasons. One is to solve the problems of not getting good shoes in Nigeria. As at 15 years ago when I started, it was tough to find a company or individual that make good shoes in Nigeria.

Nigerian, Abdullahi Shuaibu, described by the New York Police department as an employee of the United Nations was arrested for robbing four Manhattan banks, all during his lunch hour. Shuaibu’s photo circulated by NYPD Shuaibu, 53, a journalist and former staff of the News Agency of Nigeria was picked up by police on Monday and charged with robbery and attempted robbery for the crimes committed during his two-month spree. All four banks are within walking distance of UN headquarters on First Ave. near E. 42nd St., where the Nigerian worked. Authorities were led to the suspect after a retired police officer who works at the UN recognised him from a surveillance image previously released by the police. In the first incident, Shuaibu walked into a Santander Bank on Madison Ave. near E. 43rd St. on Feb. 27 and told the teller he had a gun. The bank employee complied and handed him an unknown sum of money. He hit two more banks in March, first striking out at a Bank of America on Third Ave.

— The Nigerian economy is out of recession and growing strong, says United Kingdom-based World Economics. The organisation, which is  dedicated to producing analysis, insight and data relating to questions of importance in understanding the world economy, said this development was reflected in the growth of its April Sales Managers’ Index, SMI, for Nigeria, which rose to 58.5 per cent from 56.7 per cent in March. According to a report on its website, the organisation said: “April Sales Managers’ Index, SMI, data suggests that the Nigerian economy is continuing to grow out of the recession which saw 10 months of consecutive contraction in 2016. “The Market Growth Index grew to 58.5 in April as the monthly Sales Growth Index ticked up to 56.7, its highest value since 2015 and representative of rapid growth.

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has dared Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike over his threat to sue the Federal Government on the $43 million recovered by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in a residential apartment in Ikoyi, Lagos. APC said Wike, his Ekiti State counterpart, Ayodele Fayose and former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, who linked the $43 million to the Minister of Transportation and immediate past governor of Rivers, Chibuike Amaechi, were being mischievous. Wike, at the weekend alleged that the apartment where the money was found by EFCC operatives belongs to his predecessor and the $309 million was the 70 per cent equity share from the sale of the state-owned First Independent Power Company. The company had four gas turbines with installed capacity of 541 megawatts. It was sold to NG Power Limited at $800,000.00 per megawatts. Amaechi, however, denied the allegation.APC Chairman in Rivers, Davies Ikanya said: “It was rather unfortunate for
