American Driver



                    




 
American driver is the latest movie from Moses Inwang and produced by Bode ojo.   Moses Inwang has directed other movies like Itoro, Stalker, Damage, and The Last Three Digits.
It is an hilarious and funny movie starring Evan King (Jack Curry), MCPc the comedian (Sunny),Jim Iyke,Nse Ikpe Etim, Nadia Buhari,and Melvin Oduah.
The movie started with Jack and Sunny being interviewed for driving position by company in charge of Catering for the hospitality of Nigerian celebrities visiting America for the Upcoming GIAMA Awards ceremony. Jack tries to impress the celebrities by becoming friendly and helpful to them but this landed him in trouble several times even to the extent of being arrested by the police for over speeding.
The movie does not have a good storyline, most of the celebrities who appears as cast in the movie performs a poor job in interpreting their roles with the fake accent. Melvin Oduah and Nse Ikpe-Etim were stiff in their various role save for Jack and Jim Iyke. It also comes across as a racist movie when Jim Iyke reported to Kate that Jack calls Sunny a "Black monkey" which he later debunked the story as false, another scene was when he also told Kate that he prefers Jack to drive him when she mentions Sunny will be his driver for that day.
The scene i love most was when Jim decided to pay Jack back for giving him Mushrooms which he's allergic to by taking him to an African restaurant to eat Pepper soup.
The video quality is superb, the camera angle is an Ariel shot and the Soundtrack is on the average.
The movie is for followers of comedy and I will rate the movie 6/10 because of Jack and Jim Iyke’s good performance.

Reps May Reverse Senate Amendments to CCB/CCT Act

Owing to the controversy surrounding the planned amendment to the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act by the National Assembly, the House of Representatives moved on Tuesday to reverse it.

The Senate had last week, concluded work on a bill for an Act to amend the CCB/Tribunal Act by adopting the bill, which was first initiated in the House.

In keeping with the rules of proceedings in the House, a substantive motion to rescind the bill will be debated by the lawmakers to decide whether the reversal will succeed.

The Majority Leader of the House, Mr. Femi Gbajabiamila, is expected to move the motion on notice on Tuesday or Wednesday, next week.

It was Gbajabiamila, who started the move on Tuesday by soliciting members’ support to reverse the amendments.

Raising several points of order at Tuesday’s session, which was presided over by the Speaker, Mr. Yakubu Dogara, the majority leader had noted that much as it was the duty of the legislature to make laws, the same legislature could reverse itself if it appeared to be progressing in an unpopular direction.

Gbajabiamila also argued that the amendments to the Act were in conflict with the relevant sections of the 1999 Constitution dealing with the membership and operations of the CCB.

For instance, Gbajabiamila said Section 15(4) of the 5th Schedule to the constitution provided that the National Assembly should give additional powers to the CCT so that it could tackle corruption effectively.

He added that the new amendments merely contradicted the constitution, as the National Assembly was now reducing the powers of the CCB/CCT.

The majority leader further said Section 15 (3) of the same schedule stated that upon the recommendation of National Judicial Council, “the President shall approve the appointment of the Chairman of the CCB, which already stated clearly the procedure.”

 “An amendment to the CCB Act cannot be inconsistent with the provisions of the constitution. As we know, the constitution is the supreme law of the land.

“Any law that goes in conflict with the constitution, it is taken for granted that the constitution will naturally take its stand,” he added.

Gbajabiamila, a member of the All Progressives Congress from Lagos State, recalled that the CCB/tribunal amendment bill was included among the “40 bills,” which passed third reading one day at the House in June.

Senate's Rejects Buhari's $30bn Loan Request

The Nigerian Senate, on Tuesday, threw out the request by President Muhammadu Buhari to borrow about $30bn as 2016 – 2018 External Borrowing Rolling Plan.



Recall that last week, Buhari wrote the upper chamber, seeking its approval to borrow the sum from the World Bank.

The borrowing plan was to address the infrastructure deficit in the health, education, water resources and other sectors.

The president’s plans to borrow the sum was rejected by Nigerians, as many, including human rights activists said the proposed borrowing was not needed at such a time. 

Their desire has however been met as the Senate overwhelmingly voted against Buhari's request after it was subjected to a voice vote.
