By Nkiruka Nnorom

The Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE), yesterday, migrated four companies – Chellarams Plc, Living Trust Mortgage Plc, McNichols Plc, and The Initiates Plc to the Growth Board from the Alternative Securities Market (ASeM) even as the Exchange launched the associated Growth Board Index to track development in the sector.

The migration follows the receipt of applications from these companies requesting to be migrated from ASeM, and consequent screening and approval by the National Council of the Exchange.

The NSE Growth Board was launched in January 2020 to encourage Start-Ups, Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) and growth-oriented companies looking to raise capital and promote liquidity in the trading of their shares. It offers relaxed entry criteria with less stringent listing requirements, making it easier to attract capital flows along with reduced pre and post-listing obligations.

Speaking at the virtual migration ceremony and Closing Gong ceremony by the companies, Oscar Onyema, Chief Executive Officer, NSE, said: “This migration affirms the notable efforts of the four companies to meeting corporate governance standards and underpins the robustness of our market. “We congratulate and are pleased to migrate Chellarams Plc, Living Trust Mortgage Plc, McNichols Plc, and The Initiates Plc to the Growth Board where they will have access to a suite of value-added services that will give them a competitive edge beyond access to capital.”

Chad abolishes death penalty for terrorist acts

Boko Haram terrorists Chad on Tuesday abolished the death penalty for terrorist acts, quashing an exception that was on the books for four years, Justice Minister Djimet Arabi told AFP. The Sahel country passed legislation in 2016 to abolish capital punishment, but made an exception for perpetrators of terrorism. Arabi, who proposed the amendment, said the vote was unanimous and the law would come into force once it is approved by President Idriss Deby Itno, whose party enjoys a huge majority in parliament. The change is “aimed at harmonising our laws in line with all the countries of the G5 Sahel Group,” the minister said. Chad’s military is a key part of the 5,000-strong G5 force alongside Burkina Faso, Niger, Mali and Mauritania that cooperates with French troops to combat a growing Islamist insurgency.

Edo Election: ‘Character, Performance favour Obaseki’

Governor Godwin Obaseki By Isiramen Enobun In seasons of intense politics, truth is always the first casualty. So it is in Edo State at the moment, elections are holding on September 19, 2020, and the people are trying to understand the true meaning of reverse thinking, of the difference between the two major candidates, Godwin Obaseki of PDP, who is the incumbent governor, and Ize Iyamu, who is running on the platform of APC, and how Adams Oshiomole has appropriated the story to become the common factor in a context that should otherwise be very exciting. As it is the beauty of democracy is unfolding in the state. Politicians are crisscrossing the land advertising their wares and capacity, but so also is the nastiness of politics. Some deviants in their midst are threatening fire and brimstone, and the tigers and lions which were once restricted to the Ogba Zoo in Benin City may be released on that particular day.

Buhari’s COVID-19 package (2)

President Muhammadu Buhari HAVING heard from President Muhammadu Buhari the measures the Federal Government is taking in partnership with states and patriotic individuals to contain the Coronavirus pandemic, there are further measures we want to see in the comings days. We must all bear in mind that though the Federal Government and President Buhari must provide the leadership in mobilising (as it has done) the enormous institutional and financial resources at its disposal, the main hands-on fight is at the state, local government, community, family and individual levels. We must all be involved and do our part. Awareness must continue to be drummed up through all available means. The big danger is that the vast majority of Nigerians are not fully aware that Nigeria is a potential disaster zone. Some foreign countries, such as Israel, appear to have taken proactive steps to escape a putative explosion of infections in Nigeria by evacuating their citizens. The numbers appear very...
