Jonathan to spend at least N1.5 billion for another presidential jet
The Presidency is set to increase the number of private jets in the Presidential Air Fleet by purchasing an additional aircraft in 2014. The proposal for the new aircraft has already been included in the proposed 2014 Appropriation Bill submitted to the National Assembly.
Details of the budget proposal laid before the two chambers of the National Assembly last week by the Minister of Finance, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, on behalf of President Goodluck Jonathan, revealed that N1.5 billion was proposed as deposit for the purchase of the new aircraft. The proposal was included in the budget of the Presidential Air Fleet under the Office of the National Security Adviser, NSA.
The presidential fleet also proposed to spend about N747 million to take care of its aircraft fuel cost during the year.
Though further details of the planned acquisition were not immediately available as top officials in the presidency who should know were not willing to comment on the issue, it was gathered that new aircraft would be the 11th in the luxurious presidential fleet.
Other proposals in the budget include the plan by the presidency to purchase a new embalming machine for the State House, Abuja, for which a budget of N1.65 billion has been made.
Another N17.5 million has also been set aside by the presidency for the provision of magnetic resonance imaging, MRI, building and mortuary conversion machine; as well as N1.3 billion for the construction of the VIP wing of the State House Medical Centre, Abuja.
In addition, about N17.5 million would go for the construction of hospitals and health centre in the State House, apart from N37million set aside for wildlife conservation purposes in the Presidential Villa.
Another N70 million would be spent for the building and installation of oxygen and other gases generating plant at the State House; N50 million for the completion of the extension of dental wing at the State House Medical Centre; N6 million for two sauna baths; N5 million for a wildlife capture equipment, and N14.5 million to purchase two wildlife animals not mentioned in the budget.
The upgrade of Villa facilities would gulp about N1.5 billion; upgrade of Villa Telecommunication Exchange and spare parts would take N220 million; and about N215million would be spent on remodeling of the new guest house for the vice President at Yakubu Gowon Crescent, Asokoro.
About N50 million has been included in the budget for improvement of electrical installation in the State House Banquet Hall; N15 million for renovation of Horses’ stable/paddock; N8 million for the upgrade and maintenance of Villa Zoo, while N1.8 million would go for six wardrobe/towel shelves for the presidential lodge.
As part of the ongoing reform in the power sector, the Transmission Company of Nigeria, TCN, which transmits generated electricity, has been allocated about N24.9 billion for its operations in 2014.
The Power Holding Company of Nigeria, PHCN, successor generation companies also have an allocation of N1.143 billion for the year.

Sandro Rosell resigns and Josep Maria Bartomeu will assume the presidency of FC Barcelona until 2016
“In all of these years we have seen that our successes are
the result of our victories on the pitch and overcoming innumerable
obstacles off the pitch: political, external and, what’s worse, at times
the pressure has come from our own environment”
“It has been an honour to serve the Barcelonistas. It’s been a privilege to be the president of FC Barcelona. I wish the best to the new president and I ask the Club members to support him”
“I also want to thank my family. They, in the end, are the essence of my life. They are the most important thing to me”

“Close to four years ago, during the Club’s 2010 elections, thousands of FC Barcelona members cast their ballots with the excitement of showing who they wanted to take the reins of the Club. That day was unforgettable, it was a democratic festival that reinforced the greatness of our Barça.
On that day, 61% of the votes gave the team that I led the charge to direct the destiny of the Club until 2016.
In these four years we have enjoyed and suffered because we are Barcelonistas, just as many generations of Blaugranas have enjoyed and suffered for more than a century.
In all of these years we have seen that our successes are the result of our victories on the pitch and overcoming innumerable obstacles off the pitch: political, external and, what’s worse, at times the pressure has come from our own environment. In the last four years we have won one Champions League, one Club World Cup, two Ligas, one Copa del Rey, one European Super Cup, three Spanish Super Cups and one Copa Cataluña. In addition, our other professional teams have triumphantly paraded our colours around the world showing the character of our multi-sports Club.
Today the Blaugrana feeling is felt worldwide, and it will continue to be felt around the world in the future.
Our global athletic leadership that began with Ronaldinho in the Paris final, and continued with Messi in Rome and London, was coupled with effective economic management, which allowed us to continue to be competitive, reduce our debt, restore and expand the Club’s estate. In addition, we are proud that the best players in the world don our colours.
To this we add the immense excitement of presenting the construction of a new stadium on the foundations of our magical and legendary Camp Nou, which the Club members must ratify via referendum in April.
But this period of success has also brought us very difficult moments. For some time my family and myself have suffered threats and attacks in silence. These threats and attacks have made me wonder if being president means having to jeopardise my family.
In recent days an unfair and reckless accusation of misappropriation has resulted in a lawsuit against me in the Audiencia Nacional. From the beginning I have said that the signing of Neymar Junior has been correct and his signing has caused despair and envy in some of our adversaries.
The right of the Club members to be informed needs to be compatible with the defence of the Club and confidentiality of certain matters and facts. This confidentiality is essential in the world of football because otherwise the Club could be damaged.
The Board of Directors is a team. And this team leads a project that has brought the Club great success. I don’t want unfair attacks to negatively affect their management or the image of the Club. This is why I think my time here has come to an end.
Now, in accordance with the Club’s Statutes, I have presented my irrevocable resignation of the presidency of FC Barcelona to the Board of Directors.
From this moment, just as the directors announced, in accordance with our Statutes, the first vice-president of the Club, Josep Maria Bartomeu, will immediately assume the presidency of the Club until the end of the term, through 2016, just as the Board unanimously agreed a few moments ago.
It has been an honour to serve the Barcelonistas. It has been a privilege to be the president of FC Barcelona. I wish nothing but the best to the new president and I ask the Club members for their support. I sincerely thank the employees of the Club, the players and the managers. My special thanks to the directors who have accompanied me on this voyage.
I also thank my family. They, in the end, are the essence of my life. They are the most important thing to me.
Thank you all.
Visca el Barça and Visca Catalunya”

Schuster, a familiar face
Bern Schuster has not been to the Camp Nou since December 23, 2007, when he was manager of Real Madrid (0-1). The German wore the Barça shirt from 1980 to 1988, making 241 official appearances. He has since faced his former club as manager of Levante, Getafe, Real Madrid and Malaga, winning three, drawing once and losing six games against the Catalans.
Hitting 100
There have been some very special meetings with Malaga over the years. It was last season at La Rosaleda that Barça completed a historic first half to the season with an incredible 55 points out of a possible 57. In the final game of the season, Barça made it to 100 points for the first time ever, in game that was doubly special through being the Camp Nou’s chance to say farewell to Abidal.4-1 becoming a tradition
Malaga have lost 4-1 at the Camp Nou on their last three trips to FC Barcelona. In 2010/11, Iniesta, Pedro and Villa (2) got the goals, in 2011/12, it was Puyol and Leo Messi (3) while last year the players that found the net were Villa, Fàbregas, Montoya and Iniesta.
Last Malaga win with Arnau in goal
Barça have won a staggering 29 of the 32 games against Malaga at the Camp Nou. The Andalusians have only managed two wins and a draw. The last blue-and-white victory came in 1999/00, when Malaga stunned the home fans, 2-1. The Barça keeper that day was Arnau, who later go on to play for Malaga for two seasons.
