PLHA Saga: Rep Bagos Appeals to NASS Leadership Over Plateau Assembly Crisis

Rep. Dachung Bagos (PDP-Plateau) has called on the leadership of the National Assembly to intervene and resolve the crisis rocking Plateau State House of Assembly.

Bagos made the call while addressing newsmen at the National Assembly Complex on Tuesday in Abuja.

He said that Plateau House of Assembly was constituted in 2019 with 24 elected members under the leadership of the Speaker, Mr Abok Ayuba.

He alleged that the speaker became a scapegoat for saying the truth as regards the killings and the state of insecurity in the state.

“Few days back, six members of the House of Assembly carried out a coup and purportedly impeached the speaker.

“I call on my colleagues, the Speaker of the House of Representatives and the Senate President to look into this issue immediately.

“They should look into it before democracy is murdered in Plateau; before we are looked down upon that we do not respect the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,” he said.

Bagos said section 92 of the Constitution clearly states that a speaker of a state house of assembly can only be impeached by a 2/3 majority members of the house.

According to him, six members cannot represent 2/3, so this coup is clearly against the constitution of the country.

“Ayuba remains the legitimate speaker of the house that the plateau people know; this is not about party politics, he is APC and I am PDP, it is about defending the Constitution of Nigeria.

“It is about doing the right thing; it is about carrying out the legitimate assignment; it is about doing what is right for the people and giving the people what is right for them,” he said.

Bagos said he did not have any problem if the embattled speaker was impeached in accordance with the provisions of the law.

“We are working hard to ensure peace in Plateau, but this action could fuel disunity and insecurity among the people.

“We will not sit here and allow illegality; we will not sit down and allow selfish reason to override the interest of the people.

“We stand for what is right and we will continue to recognise Ayuba as the legitimate speaker until 2/3 majority of the house impeaches him.

“But six out of 24 members sitting to impeach a speaker, is an act of murder on the constitution,” Bagos said.

Squid Game: Cryptocurrency up and nearly 2,400% in the last 24 hours

Netflix’s new Korean-language show “Squid Game” about a deadly tournament of adults playing children’s games in the hopes of winning a big cash prize is a worldwide sensation.

Now, it has its very own brand of cryptocurrency that has launched with a huge price run-up.

SQUID is trading at $2.22, up nearly 2,400% over the last 24 hours, and its market capitalization is above $174 million.

However, those interested in taking part may want to exercise caution before jumping into trading squid. CoinMarketCap has issued a warning; saying that it’s received “multiple reports” that users are not able to sell this token on Pancakeswap, a popular decentralized exchange.

It is unclear why some users are unable to sell their tokens,;but the white paper describing the coin does lay out an anti-dumping technology that prevents people from selling their coins if certain conditions are not met.

CNBC reached out through contact information listed on the Squid website to ask whether the developers were aware of the problem and working to fix it, and didn’t immediately hear back.

Netflix told CNBC it has nothing to do with the currency and doesn’t endorse it.

The coin, which started its presale Oct. 20 and apparently “sold out in 1 second,” according to its white paper; joins a list of other parody cryptocurrencies that have witnessed big run-ups for no particular reason, other than good publicity.

The meme-inspired shiba inu coin, for example, has doubled in price in the last week.

The squid token was launched as the exclusive coin of the Squid Game project — a crypto play-to-earn platform.

The online tournament, which launches in November; mimics the six rounds of games featured in its namesake TV show. But unlike its Netflix counterpart; the company said “we do not provide deadly consequences apparently!”

Also unlike the series, which capped the grand prize at $38.5 million for the final winner; this virtual simulation of Squid Game will not limit the maximum of the final bonus, nor the number of participants.

Players will, however, have to pay a preset price in squid tokens in order to participate in each game, and some rounds also require users to purchase a custom-made NFT, available for sale on their website.

Some of these NFTs feature characters from the show; including the guards who wear full-body reddish-pink suits (the exact coloring has prompted a heated debate among show fans) and black masks covering their entire face.

Gameplay doesn’t come cheap, especially at current prices.

If you want to take part in the final game of the tournament; you’ll have to pay 15,000 , or $33,450, and purchase an NFT.

Entry fees from each of the rounds are split between developers (10%) and the reward pool (90%).

The Squid Game platform also offers Marbles Pools — yet another reference to the show — wherein holders can earn tokens through staking; which is putting up their cryptocurrency holdings as collateral to earn passive income.

This comes amid a recent spate of Squid Game-related scams and malware schemes; as cyber criminals look to lure fans.

In his place, the Member representing Pengana Constituency in Bassa LGA, Rt. Hon. Yakubu Sanda was duely elected as Speaker to replace the former Speaker Abok Ayuba.

In his remarks, the new Speaker Rt. Hon. Yakubu Sanda said he was humbled by the confidence that 16 of his colleagues including some PDP members reposed in him to lead them at this auspicious time promising to be fair, just and patriotic.

He assured the Governor that the House will collaborate with the Executive and the legislature to serve the people of Plateau by ensuring that there is good governance, security, peace and infrastructural development among others.

That is why those who have such privilege should do their best to carry their colleagues along and work for the benefit of the people and the legislature”.
