In a video obtained by Radar Online, Lindsay Lohan who was in the passenger seat of a black jeep, grabbed Egor's phone and threw it out the window. They both rush out of the jeep to grab the phone, but Lindsay got to the phone before Egor did. He tried to take the phone from Lindsay but she refused to give it up. He then pulled her arms behind her and tried to squeeze the phone from her. He kept saying 'Give me my phone' and she said 'No'.

ABUJA-Following the incessant clashes between herdsmen and farmers

administration would not tolerate any acts of banditry and criminality.

National Defence College NDC Course 24 in Abuja

National Defence College NDC Course 24 in Abuja
He said that the security agencies in the country had been mandated to
adequately deal with such act as it was capable of truncating the peace
of the country.
It will be recalled that there had been frequent clashes between fulani
herdsmen and farmers in many States particularly in Benue, Enugu,
Adamawa, Ekiti which claimed several lives.
Consequently, many stakeholders had called for ranching and grazing
reserves for the cattles.
Similarly, there had been a growing impression in some quarters that
President Buhari had not come all out to condemn the herdsmen and find
lasting solution to the problem despite ordering the security apparatus
of the country to quell the clashes.
But speaking yesterday at the graduation ceremony of the National
Defence College, NDC, for Course 24 in Abuja, the president said his
government was out to deal decisively with the matter.
He also said that steps were being taken to rebuild the insurgency
ravaged north east and tackle the emerging issues of restiveness and
bombing of oil installations in the Niger Delta.
He said: “On the matter of Herdsmen/Farmers clashes, I wish to state
that this Administration will not tolerate or condone acts of banditry
and criminality, under any guise. As such, our security agencies have
been mandated to deal with such acts decisively.
“Let me state that this Administration has been working assiduously in
conjunction with our local and international partners, to rebuild
damaged communities in North East part of our country. Similarly, we are
committed to tackling the issues of underdevelopment and neglect in the
Niger Delta area. This is a priority we have set before us and we
intend to make appreciable gains in correcting the ills of the past in
the Niger Delta by assuaging inherent grievances.”
The president also reiterated his pact with Nigerian upon his assumption
of office, saying he was still committed to securing the country,
improving the economy and fighting corruption.
To this end, the president said his administration had recover billions
of Naira from individuals and organizations.
“You will all recall that on being sworn into office on 29 May 2015, I
outlined certain core areas of our national life that require immediate
intervention, some of which I would like to reiterate here today. First,
we should seek to secure the country, improve the economy and fight
corruption. As it is, this is our unfinished business from the past and
dates back to the creation of our republic, yet to this day, corruption
and poverty remain our main national problems.
“As part of efforts to address the problem of corruption, we have set in
motion legal processes to recover whatever we can and bring to justice
those who betrayed their trust. Thus far, we have been able to recover
billions of naira from indicted companies and individuals. In addition,
through the implementation and enforcement of the Treasury Single
Account, we have been able to save more for our nation.
“Furthermore, in our fight to end poverty in Nigeria, we have set up
social interventions and reliefs for the poor, and already, data is
being collated by the Economic Planning Office of the Vice President in
conjunction with the World Bank.
“In addition, through our 2016 budget, we intend to stimulate the
economy, making it more competitive by focusing on infrastructural
development; delivering inclusive growth; and prioritizing the welfare
of Nigerians.
“We believe that this budget, while helping industry, commerce and
investment to pick up, will as a matter of urgency, address the
immediate problems of youth unemployment and the terrible living
conditions of the very poor and vulnerable Nigerians”, he said.
Congratulating the graduands, president Buhari charged them to employ
high level of professionalism and technical competence in their career.
He said: “We know that the National Defence College is a truly unique
institution, one which we believe, has empowered you with the highest
levels of skills in management practices of present day administration
and governance for development of our institutions.
“We are also very pleased to learn that the blueprints of training at
this College have kept pace with our current security environment. In
this vein, you will be pleased to note that in the last one year,
through the hard work, dedication and sacrifices made by members of our
armed forces and security services, we have been able to degrade
significantly, the capacity of Boko Haram insurgents to wreck havoc on
our society.
“As strategic leaders, you must remember that our Armed Forces have been
the torch bearers of many of our non-military innovations. I am
therefore, very happy to hear that the Graduating Course has undertaken a
higher defence management and strategic research on the topic “Youth
Bulge in Nigeria, Implication for National Security”. As we seek to
solve the myriad of social and political problems we will look closely
at your recommendations.
“As you graduate, I urge you to set for yourselves befitting goals and
having done so, utilise your technical competence, skills and hardwork
to realise it. I compliment all of you, especially the award winners,
for achieving this personal milestone which I hope is a sign of things
to come.”

Niger Delta area. This is a priority we have set before us and we
intend to make appreciable gains in correcting the ills of the past in
the Niger Delta by assuaging inherent grievances.”
The president also reiterated his pact with Nigerian upon his assumption
of office, saying he was still committed to securing the country,
improving the economy and fighting corruption.
To this end, the president said his administration had recover billions
of Naira from individuals and organizations.
“You will all recall that on being sworn into office on 29 May 2015, I
outlined certain core areas of our national life that require immediate
intervention, some of which I would like to reiterate here today. First,
we should seek to secure the country, improve the economy and fight
corruption. As it is, this is our unfinished business from the past and
dates back to the creation of our republic, yet to this day, corruption
and poverty remain our main national problems.
“As part of efforts to address the problem of corruption, we have set in
motion legal processes to recover whatever we can and bring to justice
those who betrayed their trust. Thus far, we have been able to recover
billions of naira from indicted companies and individuals. In addition,
through the implementation and enforcement of the Treasury Single
Account, we have been able to save more for our nation.
“Furthermore, in our fight to end poverty in Nigeria, we have set up
social interventions and reliefs for the poor, and already, data is
being collated by the Economic Planning Office of the Vice President in
conjunction with the World Bank.
“In addition, through our 2016 budget, we intend to stimulate the
economy, making it more competitive by focusing on infrastructural
development; delivering inclusive growth; and prioritizing the welfare
of Nigerians.
“We believe that this budget, while helping industry, commerce and
investment to pick up, will as a matter of urgency, address the
immediate problems of youth unemployment and the terrible living
conditions of the very poor and vulnerable Nigerians”, he said.
Congratulating the graduands, president Buhari charged them to employ
high level of professionalism and technical competence in their career.
He said: “We know that the National Defence College is a truly unique
institution, one which we believe, has empowered you with the highest
levels of skills in management practices of present day administration
and governance for development of our institutions.
“We are also very pleased to learn that the blueprints of training at
this College have kept pace with our current security environment. In
this vein, you will be pleased to note that in the last one year,
through the hard work, dedication and sacrifices made by members of our
armed forces and security services, we have been able to degrade
significantly, the capacity of Boko Haram insurgents to wreck havoc on
our society.
“As strategic leaders, you must remember that our Armed Forces have been
the torch bearers of many of our non-military innovations. I am
therefore, very happy to hear that the Graduating Course has undertaken a
higher defence management and strategic research on the topic “Youth
Bulge in Nigeria, Implication for National Security”. As we seek to
solve the myriad of social and political problems we will look closely
at your recommendations.
“As you graduate, I urge you to set for yourselves befitting goals and
having done so, utilise your technical competence, skills and hardwork
to realise it. I compliment all of you, especially the award winners,
for achieving this personal milestone which I hope is a sign of things
to come.”

ABUJA-Following the incessant clashes between herdsmen and farmers
across the federation, President Muhammadu Buhari has said that his
administration would not tolerate any acts of banditry and criminality.

National Defence College NDC Course 24 in Abuja

National Defence College NDC Course 24 in Abuja
He said that the security agencies in the country had been mandated to
adequately deal with such act as it was capable of truncating the peace
of the country.
It will be recalled that there had been frequent clashes between fulani
herdsmen and farmers in many States particularly in Benue, Enugu,
Adamawa, Ekiti which claimed several lives.
Consequently, many stakeholders had called for ranching and grazing
reserves for the cattles.
Similarly, there had been a growing impression in some quarters that
President Buhari had not come all out to condemn the herdsmen and find
lasting solution to the problem despite ordering the security apparatus
of the country to quell the clashes.
But speaking yesterday at the graduation ceremony of the National
Defence College, NDC, for Course 24 in Abuja, the president said his
government was out to deal decisively with the matter.
He also said that steps were being taken to rebuild the insurgency
ravaged north east and tackle the emerging issues of restiveness and
bombing of oil installations in the Niger Delta.
He said: “On the matter of Herdsmen/Farmers clashes, I wish to state
that this Administration will not tolerate or condone acts of banditry
and criminality, under any guise. As such, our security agencies have
been mandated to deal with such acts decisively.
“Let me state that this Administration has been working assiduously in
conjunction with our local and international partners, to rebuild
damaged communities in North East part of our country. Similarly, we are
committed to tackling the issues of underdevelopment and neglect in the
Niger Delta area. This is a priority we have set before us and we

committed to tackling the issues of underdevelopment and neglect in the
Niger Delta area. This is a priority we have set before us and we
intend to make appreciable gains in correcting the ills of the past in
the Niger Delta by assuaging inherent grievances.”
The president also reiterated his pact with Nigerian upon his assumption
of office, saying he was still committed to securing the country,
improving the economy and fighting corruption.
To this end, the president said his administration had recover billions
of Naira from individuals and organizations.
“You will all recall that on being sworn into office on 29 May 2015, I
outlined certain core areas of our national life that require immediate
intervention, some of which I would like to reiterate here today. First,
we should seek to secure the country, improve the economy and fight
corruption. As it is, this is our unfinished business from the past and
dates back to the creation of our republic, yet to this day, corruption
and poverty remain our main national problems.
“As part of efforts to address the problem of corruption, we have set in
motion legal processes to recover whatever we can and bring to justice
those who betrayed their trust. Thus far, we have been able to recover
billions of naira from indicted companies and individuals. In addition,
through the implementation and enforcement of the Treasury Single
Account, we have been able to save more for our nation.
“Furthermore, in our fight to end poverty in Nigeria, we have set up
social interventions and reliefs for the poor, and already, data is
being collated by the Economic Planning Office of the Vice President in
conjunction with the World Bank.
“In addition, through our 2016 budget, we intend to stimulate the
economy, making it more competitive by focusing on infrastructural
development; delivering inclusive growth; and prioritizing the welfare
of Nigerians.
“We believe that this budget, while helping industry, commerce and
investment to pick up, will as a matter of urgency, address the
immediate problems of youth unemployment and the terrible living
conditions of the very poor and vulnerable Nigerians”, he said.
Congratulating the graduands, president Buhari charged them to employ
high level of professionalism and technical competence in their career.
He said: “We know that the National Defence College is a truly unique
institution, one which we believe, has empowered you with the highest
levels of skills in management practices of present day administration
and governance for development of our institutions.
“We are also very pleased to learn that the blueprints of training at
this College have kept pace with our current security environment. In
this vein, you will be pleased to note that in the last one year,
through the hard work, dedication and sacrifices made by members of our
armed forces and security services, we have been able to degrade
significantly, the capacity of Boko Haram insurgents to wreck havoc on
our society.
“As strategic leaders, you must remember that our Armed Forces have been
the torch bearers of many of our non-military innovations. I am
therefore, very happy to hear that the Graduating Course has undertaken a
higher defence management and strategic research on the topic “Youth
Bulge in Nigeria, Implication for National Security”. As we seek to
solve the myriad of social and political problems we will look closely
at your recommendations.
“As you graduate, I urge you to set for yourselves befitting goals and
having done so, utilise your technical competence, skills and hardwork
to realise it. I compliment all of you, especially the award winners,
for achieving this personal milestone which I hope is a sign of things
to come.”

ABUJA-Following the incessant clashes between herdsmen and farmers
across the federation, President Muhammadu Buhari has said that his
administration would not tolerate any acts of banditry and criminality.

National Defence College NDC Course 24 in Abuja
He said that the security agencies in the country had been mandated to
adequately deal with such act as it was capable of truncating the peace
of the country.
It will be recalled that there had been frequent clashes between fulani
herdsmen and farmers in many States particularly in Benue, Enugu,
Adamawa, Ekiti which claimed several lives.
Consequently, many stakeholders had called for ranching and grazing
reserves for the cattles.
Similarly, there had been a growing impression in some quarters that
President Buhari had not come all out to condemn the herdsmen and find
lasting solution to the problem despite ordering the security apparatus
of the country to quell the clashes.
But speaking yesterday at the graduation ceremony of the National
Defence College, NDC, for Course 24 in Abuja, the president said his
government was out to deal decisively with the matter.
He also said that steps were being taken to rebuild the insurgency
ravaged north east and tackle the emerging issues of restiveness and
bombing of oil installations in the Niger Delta.
He said: “On the matter of Herdsmen/Farmers clashes, I wish to state
that this Administration will not tolerate or condone acts of banditry
and criminality, under any guise. As such, our security agencies have
been mandated to deal with such acts decisively.
“Let me state that this Administration has been working assiduously in
conjunction with our local and international partners, to rebuild
damaged communities in North East part of our country. Similarly, we are
committed to tackling the issues of underdevelopment and neglect in the
Niger Delta area. This is a priority we have set before us and we
