Imo Governor-elect to prioritise youth empowerment, food production, commerce vanguardngr.com vanguardnews

Ihedioha made this known at a capacity building workshop organised by the National Association of Nigerian Traders for farmers and traders in Owerri.According to the governor-elect, 70 per cent of the youths who are unemployed need to be positively engaged, stressing that some of them had taken to certain vices as a result of hardship and unemployment.

“We all agreed that as traders and farmers, we have always been shortchanged by political parties and their members who have always taken advantage of the low level of the consciousness of our constituency and frequently used and dumped us during elections by buying over our votes and disregarding us in the scheme of things when it matters most.

He said the charter articulated their challenges, concerns, interest and priorities as bargaining documents with which they negotiated with political actors. “We have gathered to be trained and equipped with the capacity to track these commitments so that our efforts and resources committed to this project would not be in vain,” he said.

Mr Innocent Azih, President of Centre for Agricultural and Climate Change in Lagos, said in his paper on “Tracking Implementation of Policy Commitments for Farmer Manifesto” that the tracking framework hinged on goals, outcomes, outputs and activities by the farmers.

Shipping and carbon: EU and IMO systems to align - Vanguard News NigeriaShipping and carbon: EU and IMO systems to align - Vanguard News NigeriaOn 4 February 2019 the European Commission (EC) tabled a proposal concerning the amendment of Regulation (EU) 2015/757 on the monitoring, reporting and verification of carbon dioxide emissions from maritime transport (the “EU MRV Regulation”). The main objective of the proposal is to amend the EU MRV Regulation in order to take account of the new Global Data Collection System (“IMO DCS”) for fuel oil consumption of ships that was introduced by the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) in March 2018. The globally applicable IMO DCS system currently runs in parallel with the EU MRV, thus duplicating regulation for shipping companies whose ships sail both inside and outside the EU. In this article we provide a recap of both data monitoring and reporting systems, comparing and contrasting the two as well as highlighting the key amendments that are being proposed by the EC.
