Its not just u ooo I think seun should pit it back

Of course the loud mouthed Niger Deltan was spreading false rumors.

The money generated by FIRs does not go into its account. It's paid directly to the CBN. So even if they wanted to, they CANT have access to it.

It's statutory allocation is nowhere near the 90b being alleged so where did he get the story from?

The CSS file and styling links, using the text-decoration, font and background-color properties, were tweaked, so to remove the former visible hyperlink underlines, the former background color for those links and change font's etceteras

Example:
<style>
a:link {
text-decoration: none;
}

a:visited {
text-decoration: none;
}

a:hover {
text-decoration: underline;
}
</style>

Note that similar done for text-decoration property, was done for background-color property too.

budaatum:
Na not just you. No underlining of links. I thought it was android update I did today!

Oga at the top, is de-cluttering. It is being a long time coming. The change should have been done a long time ago before just now.

budaatum, it is misleading to say "no underlining of links" because the links are still there. They become visible when the related/concerned text is hovered over, they look invisible and missing, until hovered over. This is unlike before when the links were, embossed permanently in your face visibly seen hyperlinks.

ABUPHARM:
Same here bro
To be honest it is not attractive like the old one

Isnt it strange the difference that comes from subtractions. Less is good. It is easy on the eyes this way, it is a lot more attractive this way too. Dont worry, you'll warm up to it after a day or two

ABUPHARM:
Seun you can do something better than this na.

It is an acquired taste, you'll come to like it over time. Give it a day or two

I won't lie though, the new webpages load much faster.

Of course it will be faster loading. It is because it's now leaner after all that weight loss. It's being streamlined and even looks healthier with all that excess baggage and junk lifted of it. It now looks clean, healthy thin, sleek, fit, simple and sexy.

We all know the secret, simple!!

Can't now tell there's a link! Lazy people who barely saw them would now not see them at all!
Not good for those of us that use them a lot.

The whole propaganda against Osinbajo is the latest DUBAI STRATEGY for 2023

The person that gave/leaked the information to Timi Frank would have switched off his/her by now. This government is beginning to set trap for all the media noise makers that report issues without first verifying it authenticity

Lol, were u expecting them to openly accept they did? Seems u don't know nigeria or u are living in denial. This is nigeria and that is how they share money in nigeria. The bullion van that went into Tinubu's house few days before election, no one has been able to account for it.

My brother, nigerian politicians are corrupt and they spend tax payers money on many selfish things.

Timi Frank shouldn't be lying like this.
Is it good to trying destroying the image of the Vice President? Things like this shouldn't be happening.
Don't destroy the reputation of another person for political gain.

My brother, na naija we Dey. That is what they have been doing.
Wait until APC leaves office. U will hear more. When Oyo state governor was in power, no one saw it coming, he is out now, Makinde has been release figures of money he mismanaged. I don't trust a single Nigerian politician.

It is just like someone telling u to prove that the last election was not rigged. The both major parties rigged. The highest rigger won. Not our constitution and their smartness made it almost impossible to prove. U think before Nigerian leader would do such thing, he must have blocked all area of traces. Baba, if u are close to any Nigerian leader, u will understand. They are heartless and greedy.

tracychelsea13:
The Federal Inland Revenue Service, FIRS, has denied claims by a political activist, Timi Frank that the agency supported the All Progressives Congress by giving Vice President Yemi Osinbajo N90 billion.

In a statement titled, "RE-Osinbajo in trouble over N90 billion FIRS election fund – Timi Frank" the agency urged Nigerians to ignore the report, stressing that, it will pursue libel actions against him.

The agency said it did not spend and could not have spent taxpayers money for political ends, noting that, Mr. Frank is seeking cheap popularity and relevance.

READ THE STATEMENT BELOW:


The attention of the Federal Inland Revenue Service, FIRS, has been drawn to publication in some online and daily newspapers by a certain Comrade Timi Frank, the former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), who claimed that the FIRS supported the`APC, through the Vice President Yemi Osinbajo with a phantom N90 billion.

The FIRS wishes to state as follows:

That  the entire allegation being spread by one Frank  Timi  that the  Federal Inland Revenue Service spent N90 billion to fund the last election is mendacious, wicked, malicious and a calculated attempt to smear the image of the Service and that of his Excellency, the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo. This campaign of calumny and villifying false claims are entirely, libellous, unfounded in fact, irresponsible and a brazen assault on the integrity of the Service as a responsible and accountable organisation and demonstrates an abysmal ignorance of the budgetary and expenditure process of the FIRS.

That in the last four years since Mr. Tunde Fowler has supervised operations at the FIRS, the agency had not received up to N100 billion, per annum,  as Cost of Collection from the Federation Accounts Allocation Committee, FAAC. FAAC is a public institution, whose records are open to the public.
That it is from the remittances from FAAC—which had never grossed up to N100 billion, PER ANNUM, that FIRS pays the salary and emoluments and trains it’s over 8000 staff, runs over 150 offices and provides for other needs of the Service.

That given the above, IT IS NOT PLAUSIBLE nor DOES IT MAKE ANY SENSE that FIRS will commit its resources to a phantom campaign of N90 billion as suggested by Mr. Timi Frank and FIRS does not fund political associations.

That FIRS is a creation of statute and its activities are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and financials regulations and thus, IT IS NOT PLAUSIBLE, that its funds could be expended in such a cavalier manner as suggested by Mr. Timi Frank.

That FIRS Budget and expenditure approval processes pass through the Budget Office and the Ministry of Finance, before such are presented to the National Assembly for Appropriation into Law. The National Assembly committees, consisting of all parties and inclinations exercise oversight function on all agencies of the Federal Government to ensure agencies keep to the letters of the Appropriation Act. Thus FIRS’ operations are subjected to Scrutiny and close monitoring by the National Assembly, the Federation Accounts Allocation Committee and the Ministry of Finance.

It is therefore unthinkable, malicious and irresponsible for the said Frank to insinuate or infer that N90 billion or any part thereof could be spent illegally and without budgetary approval.

It is equally alarming to note that this injurious falsehood and blackmail could find space in our mass media without proper scrutiny particularly with the availability of the Freedom of Information Act, which broadly allows Nigerians access to information on expenditure of public funds by government agencies. This all goes to show an orchestrated and invidious decision by paid agents to discredit the Service in order to achieve their diabolical ends, which is at variance from the interest of Nigerians.

We ask members of the public to ignore the claims of Mr. Timi Frank, with the ignominy it deserves as the former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the APC is seeking for cheap popularity and relevance.

It is in the light of the foregoing observations, the FIRS demands an unequivocal apology from the said Mr. Timi Frank and a well publicised public apology in three major and leading newspapers within the next 24 hours. The FIRS shall pursue claims for aggravated damages in libel and injurious falsehood against the said Mr. Frank if he fails to meet these conditions in the next 24 hours.

This invidious publication is targeted as derailing the revenue generation efforts for  the three tiers of government in the nation. This is calculated economic sabotage and hereby referred to the Office of the Attorney General of the Federation officially.

We finally wish to assure all Nigerians that the FIRS did not spend and could not have spent taxpayers money for political ends. For the avoidance of doubt, every kobo paid by taxpayers goes straight to the Federation Account domiciled at the Central Bank of Nigeria and that the FIRS does not possess the constitutional right to touch the said account or appropriate any kobo there from to itself.

The FIRS wishes to reassure members of the public that the FIRS is a PUBLIC TRUST, which the agency operates on behalf of Nigerians. Taxpayers money-including the operational funds of the Service- are sacred.  FIRS remains committed to public accountability and transparency in the sacred mandate of tax collection and public expenditure.
