El ultimo fin de semana un equipo de Pesca al Día, formado por Enrique Allo, "Pocho" Cardarena, Daniel Sanjurjo y Jorge Núñez, tomamos rumbo hacia el balneario La Chiquita, distante unos 800 kilómetros de nuestra ciudad, al sur de la provincia de Buenos Aires, más exactamente en el municipio de Villarino.

Hay que tomar por ruta 3 hasta llegar a Mayor Buratovich; de la entrada al pueblo seguimos unos mil doscientos metros más y a mano izquierda encontramos un gran cartel que nos indica que ese es el camino que nos llevará directamente al balneario por un camino de tierra en excelente estado de conservación de aproximadamente 70 km de longitud.

Una vez que arribamos al Balneario La Chiquita, nos encontramos con el guía Claudio Manzi, que nos dio la bienvenida y de paso nos contó como andaba la pesca y cuál iba a ser nuestros itinerario de los próximos días; mientras tanto nos dedicamos a preparar el campamento, ya que este lugar aun no posee lugar donde hospedarse.

Este lugar cuenta con un camping municipal, que por 5 pesos (por única vez durante la estadía) nos permite acampar; tiene agua potable, proveeduría, baños con ducha, dos grandes quinchos donde que se pueden utilizar para cocinar y comer sin ningún costo, y la luz eléctrica es provista con equipo electrógeno hasta medianoche; además se encuentra entre médanos, a no más de 100 metros de la playa.

EN BAJANTE

El primer día, aprovechando la bajante, Claudio nos llevó hasta la caleta Brickman a pescar de costa; luego de recorrer unos 25 km por la playa llegamos a este paradisíaco lugar para pescar de costa. Una vez en el lugar (frente al faro El Rincón) empezamos armar los equipos: cañas de lance de aproximadamente 3,80 metros de longitud y líneas para corvina de 1 y 2 anzuelos, con plomadas de 100 a 130 gramos, y de carnada utilizamos anchoa, carpa, filet de pejerrey, y con todos tuvimos resultado, destacándose la anchoa.

Teniendo en cuenta que a menos de 10 metros se encuentra un canal, que en bajante, tiene una profundidad de aproximadamente 10 metros, no era necesario hacer distancia con los lances. Una vez que los aparejos estuvieron en el agua no se hicieron esperar mucho los primeros piques de pescadillas, gatuzos, chuchos y de algunas corvinas de mediano porte.

Después de 3 horas y media decidimos pegarnos la vuelta ya que habíamos hecho una pesca muy buena. Una vez en el campamento aprovechamos a preparar una buena "fritanga" de pescadilla.

EMBARCADOS

Al día siguiente Claudio nos vino a buscar bien temprano para probar de embarcado, aprovechando que el mar parecía una "pileta"; entonces preparamos los equipos para pesca de embarcado de mar, utilizando reeles rotativos con nylon del 50, los mismos aparejos del día anterior y el mismo tipo de carnada.

Una vez preparados fuimos con la camioneta hasta la playa y nos embarcamos. A unos dos mil metros mar adentro anclamos y empezamos a obtener una gran cantidad de capturas de corvina que rondaban los 3,5 kilos de peso, además de pescadillas chuchos, gatuzos y anchoas de banco.

Después de tres horas terminamos la pesca ya que la cantidad de piezas capturadas era más que suficiente.

Al otro día, Claudio nos invitó a probar en la caleta, pero esta vez embarcados ya que estaba crecido y con un poco de viento, cosa que dentro de la caleta no se siente ya que está al reparo, y por supuesto que la pesca fue muy buena, destacándose la gran cantidad de pescadillas obtenidas.

Este no solamente es un pesquero excepcional, sino que además se puede realizar cualquier tipo de pesca, hasta de tiburón se puede intentar; lo que recomendamos es salir con guía, tanto para ir a la caleta de costa, como para la pesca de embarcado. Algo para tener en cuenta es que hay que llevar la carnada desde La Plata o bien comprarla en Mayor Buratovich.

I have had time after the publication to think deeply whether to accept or reject the honour.

I thank the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Alhaji Umaru Musa Yar‘ Adua. I thank the Federal Government of Nigeria and I am very grateful to the Council of State which approved the honour of OFR given to me by the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

I wish to express my gratitude to numerous Nigerians who by telephone calls, mobile text messages and some by personal visits congratulated me on the award of OFR.

This is the first government in Nigeria to honour me with the national award. Obviously this government must have considered my activities in the last 43 years before deciding to give the national award of OFR. From my own standpoint and perception, my struggles and crusades include: (1) The abolition of poverty from the face of our country; (2) The unqualified need to preserve, defend and protect the fundamental human rights; (3) The governance of our country through democratic processes; (4) The subjection of everybody and everything to and under the Rule of Law; (5) The right of the people to free and qualitative education at all Levels; (6) The right of the people to free and qualitative health services and facilities; (7) The strengthening of our economy through sound development of infrastructure including power generation (electricity), good roads, good and modern rail-system across the length and breadth of Nigeria, good water way transportation system; (Cool The overall duties of all Nigerians and governments (local, states and federal) to make Nigeria a corruption-free country by fighting corruption with all our might and main.

In the course of my struggles over the decades for the above ideals, I have been subjected by various governments to all traumatic travails and persecutions including: (a) Series of detentions in several prisons across Nigeria, notably Ikoyi Prison (three times), Kaduna Prison, Gombe Prison, Gasua Prison, Kuje Prison (two times), Bauchi Prison, etc, etc; (b) Twenty three police detentions between 1969 and 1998 at Police Headquarters, Kaduna, Jos Police Station, Ilorin Police Station, Police Headquarters. Lagos, C.I.D., Alagbon, Lagos,‘ Inter-Centre Detention Outpost, Lagos, Ikoyi Police Station, Panti Police Station, Lagos, Police Station, Wuse, Abuja, Police Station, Ikeja, Police Headquarters, Abuja, etc.; (c) ‘Arrested 32 times between 1969 and 1998 which led to the series of detentions and trials; (d) My chambers (Gani Fawehinmi Chambers) at Anthony Village, Lagos was, attacked- by security men under, various governments 16 times, culminating in the attack on Friday, August 26, 1994 when security men under Gen. Sani Abacha regime at 4am turned my Chambers into a pool of blood; (e) Thousands of copies of my books, notably on the murder of Dele Giwa, were forcibly removed and seized by security agents under Gen. Ibrahim Babangida regime and despite court orders to return my books, the military government at that time refused to obey the court orders; (f) My international passport was seized more than 15 times between 1966 and 1998; (g) I was charged to court 18 times for politically-motivated criminal offences including treason and I was jailed once and became prisoner J60 before my imprisonment was terminated by the Court of Appeal.

Today, I am 70 years and eight months old and I am struck down by lung cancer for which I have been receiving medical treatment outside my country because my country – Nigeria – has one of the poorest medical services in the world but one of the richest countries in the world in terms of oil revenue.

My decision to either accept or reject the national honour of the award of OFR will depend on how far the Nigerian nation through Nigerian governments tried to achieve any of the aforementioned eight goals.

Corruption is one single, fundamental factor that has retarded the progress of the nation and its social-economic development.

It is generally agreed, nationally and internationally, that Mallam Nuhu Ribadu did a lot to retard the inhibitive progress of corruption. 419 crimes were on the decline. Gross misuse of public funds by public officers was on the downward trend. Looting at the top became minimised. As Nigerians were breathing a sigh of relief, the government of AIhaji Umaru Yar‘ Adua threw Mallam Nuhu Ribadu out of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission. The removal of Nuhu Ribadu as EFCC Chairman happened at a time Nigerians were saying ‘the fear of EFCC is the beginning of wisdom’ as far as corruption was concerned.

I went to court to challenge Ribadu‘s illegal removal from the EFCC. I thought Yar‘Adua‘s government would allow the court to do its work. But alas, Ribadu was sent to National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies, Kuru, for a one-year course. While undergoing the one-year course in Kuru, on August 5, 2008, the Federal Government of Nigeria presided over by President Yar‘ Adua demoted Ribadu from the rank of Assistant Inspector-General of Police to Deputy Commissioner of Police.

Mallam Ribadu rightly approached a court of law by instituting an action to challenge the obnoxious demotion. Whilst the suit was pending, security agents physically removed him from the ceremony on November 22, 2008 where he was to be awarded his certificate for success at the NIPSS, Kuru.

Today, the architect of the unprecedented anti-corruption war, unprecedented in the annals of Nigeria since 1914, is now literally roaming the streets of Nigeria without official car, without official status, without any form of security, and yet he is still being subjected to hounding, haunting and all forms of dehumanising vilification by the Federal Government.

His only ‘offence’ is that he used the instrumentality of a public institution, the EFCC to investigate, arrest, charge, and in some cases, to convict through the law courts some public officers in various corridors of power throughout the length and breadth of Nigeria people who were otherwise called the untouchables.

By the performance of his duties, Nigeria and Nigerians gained in integrity, honour and recovery of their looted wealth. But Ribadu did not make any personal gain. He only waged a war against corruption, graft, stealing, money laundering, etc, etc, in the corridors of power. In return, the regime of President Yar‘ Adua decided to wage unrelenting war against anti-graft war.”

Instead of the Federal Government to publicly acknowledge the unprecedented good Ribadu has done to the psyche of Nigerians by awarding him the greatest national honour, the government has decided to continuously persecute this young man. It was therefore the greatest embarrassment for me, when at the weekend, it was announced that I was one of those 275 Nigerians honoured with national honours and in my case the OFR.

Yes, I have done my best for this country in various fields and I still want to continue to do my best. But we live in a situation where the 1999 Constitution provides in Section 15(5) that: ”The State shall abolish all corrupt practices‘ and abuse of power” and a young man emerged to do what the Constitution enjoins and he is being persecuted for carrying out the provisions of the Constitution. Yet, the President swore to observe, preserve and defend the same Constitution. I find it extremely difficult to accept that President Yar‘ Adua‘s government has the honour to dispense honour.

In the light of the above, I cannot accept the ‘honour’ of OFR. Whether now or in the life beyond. How can I wake up in the morning and look at the insignia of honour bestowed on me under a government that persecutes anti-corruption effort, particularly those of Nuhu Ribadu?

At the time the Nigerian Bar Association wrote the letter to my office that my name would be forwarded for national honour while I was in London receiving medical treatment for lung cancer, the government of President Yar‘ Adua had not begun in earnest the war against anti-corruption war and the harrowing persecution of Nuhu Ribadu had not reached its crescendo. I do not blame the NBA for sending my name at the time it did for national honour,

However, events from August 2008 to this day are so bizarre, unbelievably barbaric in their intensity, in terms of persecuting those fighting against corruption and the singling out of Ribadu for persecution, all for giving honour and dignity to this country and for recovering for our treasury, billions of naira and other forms of wealth looted by public officers.

A government that covertly and overtly encourages corruption has no honour in its arsenal of power to dispense honour. Consequently, I reject the dishonour of OFR termed ‘honour‘ given to me by the Federal Government. ‘

The Plight of the masses of our people

Nobody can dispute the fact that since this regime came to power the plight of the masses has worsened as I have shown in items 1 - 7 above. But I wish to reiterate that in all the ramifications of human existence, the masses have found themselves in the doldrum of pain occasioned by gross misgovernance of the country.

Furthermore, since the President came to power on May 29, 2007, the masses of our country have been groaning in unprecedented poverty as a result of lack of direction, The directionlessness of the Federal Government has been characterised by the following, amongst others: collapsed infrastructure, total paralysis of the health sector at all levels, constant nationwide power failure and the attendant negative effects on all sectors of the economy; pervasive unemployment, thereby generating increased armed robbery cutting across all ages of our people; debilitating homelessness, retrogressive educational programmes and policies, which have made no Nigerian university to be ranked within the first 500 universities in the world, and no effort is being made by the regime to improve on the humiliating situation.

Put simply, the Federal Government is a total failure, worsened by lack of direction and leadership. Is this the atmosphere for the award of national honours? Certainly Not!

In addition to my rejection of the honour of the OFR on the grounds of Federal Government‘s conscious war against anti-corruption war, the decadent socio- economic situation does not engender the well being of ordinary people and there is no hope in sight.

In view of the foregoing, I reject the award of OFR.

The marketers want the sum revalued based on the current exchange rate, as the products suppliers would have to be paid in dollars, and they would need more naira to purchase dollars.

With the current exchange rate, the marketers said that all the burden of the falling value of the naira would be borne by them alone, insisting that the PPPRA, managers of the Petroleum Support Fund, should pay interest on outstanding debts by way of revaluation.

However, PPPRA officials told our correspondent on the telephone that it was not feasible to revalue the debts, as the process for paying the outstanding sum had gone too far.

According to the Manager, Public Affairs, PPPRA, Mr. Yusuf Muazu, “It is not feasible for now because the issue the PPPRA is dealing with now is on how to raise funds to pay the outstanding debts and the process has gone very far.”

He explained that for the agency to consider such an option, it would mean retrieving all the doc*ments relating to the outstanding debts and re-computing the amount all over again before passing them for necessary approvals.

The marketers’ grouse is based on the fact that the outstanding sum was computed at N118 to $1, whereas the dollar is now above N130.

They noted that if they were paid based on the old rate, they would be unable to meet their liabilities to the suppliers, who would be paid in dollars.

Although the PPPRA based landing costs at N124.66 to $1 on the template posted on its website, industry sources hinted that the agency had agreed to review the exchange rate to N127 to $1.

But Muazu noted, “The PPPRA does not compute the exchange rate on its own, it works with the exchange rate provided by the CBN, and the new exchange rate will take effect when the CBN approves it.”

Besides, he stated that the marketers had not asked for debt revaluation, adding that the agency would not on its own initiate such a move.

Confirming the outstanding debts, the PPPRA spokesman said efforts to pay off the N62bn had gone very far such that “marketers would be paid any moment from now.”

Nonetheless, the marketers insist that even if the amount was not revalued, they should be paid interest on the sum, as this was the practice set by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, which paid interests to contractors whenever it defaulted in payment.

While waiting to sort out the issues with the PPPRA, the marketers have asked for permission to purchase dollars directly from the Central Bank of Nigeria to enable them continue to import petroleum products and to avert possible scarcity.

The request is coming on the heels of the continued fall of the naira to the dollar at the money market.

Making the appeal on Monday in Lagos, the Executive Secretary, Major Oil Marketers Association of Nigeria, Mr. Obafemi Olawore, told journalists that this was the only way the marketers could sustain products supply in the system.

He said, “We (importers) are owing the suppliers and have to pay for the products in dollars, whereas we are being paid at an old rate of N118 to $1, who bears the burden of the difference between the old and the new exchange rates?

“That is why we are asking the PPPRA to pay us interest on the outstanding debts or do a revaluation of the amount owed.”

Speaking on the over N300m to be refunded by the marketers in view of the falling price of crude at the international oil market and the possibility of the PPPRA netting it off from the outstanding debts, Olawore said marketers were ready to pay back.

He said, “We are ready to pay back, but the PPPRA should calculate the interest on the over-due debts.”]]> Tue, 16 Dec 2008 04:12:00 EST http://Emiperez.tigblog.org/post/554121 -39.25 -62.6166667-39.25-62.6166667 Untitled http://Emiperez.tigblog.org/post/520695
El director de Servicios de la Zona Sur del municipio de Villarino, José Dehenen, dio como un hecho la provisión de agua al balneario La Chiquita, aspiración largamente esperada por la comunidad.
El funcionario comunicó que ya se había colocado la tranquera que permitirá el ingreso al campo donde se encuentra el canal que proveerá del líquido elemento y cuyo funcionamiento se accionará mediante un equipo de bombeo y un molino de prensa, que mediante cañerías, permitirá llevar el agua hasta la cisterna del balneario para ser tratada como corresponde.

¡¡¡Inauguración de la temporada!!!

Ante la proximidad de la inauguración de la temporada estival en La Chiquita, prevista para el 6 y 7 de diciembre, se están realizando trabajos de movimiento de suelo que intentan consolidar diferentes tramos anegadizos del camino que conduce al balneario, agregando suelo arenoso a los lugares arcillosos, lo que permitirá la permeabilidad y por ende la absorción de agua del mismo.

Lo Curativo is founded by Cathy Mooses.*

For its first session, this summer 2007, Lo Curativo will travel to Argentina and be coordinated in conjunction with Argentinian artists Julian Gatto (Cooper Alum) and Carolina Pellejero. Part of the time will be spent in Buratovich ( a small city two hours south of Buenos Aires) collaborating with the project Un Vagon Hermoso* - a group of young Argentinian artists who turn abandoned train cars into community art spaces.



Lo Curativo will run similar to the summer sessions that were hosted by The Latin America Community Art Project* in 2004, 2005 and 2006. Artists come up with ideas for projects and fund their own travel. Free lodging and assistance acquiring supplies is available. Artists are encouraged to pursue projects that incorporate the local community. Current ideas include collaborating with local Bolivian textile artisans, teaching printmaking workshops, making public murals, and documentation. Environmental projects are also encouraged. There are tentative plans to build a compost toilet organized by Christopher Lindstrom, grandson of the Swedish engineer Rikard Lindstrom who developed the Clivus Multrum compost toilet design.*



We are currently searching for art supplies, computer, etc. as well as financial funding to renovate one abandoned train car that could forever after house visitors participating with Lo Curativo and Un Vagon Hermoso. A list of specific costs and materials needed will be sent out soon.



Please forward this to artists, researchers, environmentalists that would be interested in proposing projects for this summer

(it is preferable that participants have basic spanish speaking skills). Proposal for ways to contribute from the US are also encouraged!



Tentative dates are July 1- August 31.



To view photos of the abandoned train cars in Buratovich and the beginnings of Un Vagon Hermoso, as well as compost toilets check out the websites listed below.



A website for Lo Curativo is coming soon. In the meantime I encourage you to contact me directly at

Any inquiries and/or interests are invited,

*Bio of Ms. Mooses: Over the past three summers I collectively organized projects in Mexico, the Dominican Republic and El Salvador which took place in unoccupied buildings or in conjunction with other organizations. These projects hosted over 40 artists who directed their own workshops setting up dark rooms to teach pin-hole photography, bringing down equipment to teach silkscreen, finding materials for woodblock printing, ...embroidery, puppetry, etc.

Aside from offering workshops to the host community and one another, most artists were able to produce personal work and collaborate on projects together. Some were able to use their association with the collective to help get personal grants to fund their travel. All made connections with the communities they could have never made as an individual tourist and I think its safe to say, many had life changing experiences.
