Jingo-OAU:
we have different perceptions to things. For me, whenever any lawmaker overrule you, you have no other rights to say anything again cos whatever you says would be considere an after-thought.

However, the display of Iweala to me, was self-serving and appalling. I guess it would be morally bound on her to communicate directly to the committee on the nature of her health instead of showing a victimisation-stunt.

For me, the committee even gave her a soft-landing by allowing her to attend to all the questions in her private room and come back by january for the replies. Isn't that encouraging?

Nevertheless, since she insisted that they should allow her to make her presentation, the committee chaiman should have allow her and atleast hear all those things she want to say.

Imagine the insane advising the sane . . . My friend keep your filthy hole shut..

LBT: Nice one; let those silly people saying trash about those in the house of rep post the schools & certificates. Okonjo have; she is very unruly & full of herself, I liked the way she was worked out.

Kassiemobi: That Chairman should hide his face in shame for displaying such unruly behavior at the glare of the whole world. Can someone please remind him that he is no where near the Honourable Minister in all ramifications. This woman is old enough to be his mother and he thinks that he can talk to her any how just because he is the chairman house committee on finance. He has simply disgraced himself and should hide his face in shame.

tosan200:
I guess the 15k is really doing wonders.

agbameta:


The reps did their job, it's now up to the [b]corrupt, corruption loving and enabling incompetent [/b]aso rock dullard to do his job which I'm sure he can not do because it's the opposite of what he is.

It's hard to be a corruption enabler and facilitator and still fight fight corruption at the same time so I really agree with you, she is going no where...

jmaine:

Am sure your father is the one in charge of disbursing the 15k

LBT: Nice one; let those silly people saying trash about those in the house of rep post the schools & certificates. Okonjo have; she is very unruly & full of herself, I liked the way she was worked out.

Malawian:

they are not a law unto themselves, they are just an arm of government, and the executive which madam okonjo represents can always veto them.

tokunboh:

I laugh. If Nigeria were to be a sane country, myself and Hon. Jibrin can't even apply for the same job in the first place because he is not qualified to do what I do. I won't call you jobless or a charlatan because I don't know what you do.

You people should forget qualification. Many people can do better than the minister. Up till now, I am yet to comprehend her good side to Nigeria. It is time to invite all our economy expert to a round table show to channel the way forward. Many brilliant chaps that can redesign our economic policies without hardship on common man.

oluxy: What u guys don't understand about d chairman is this; in Hausa man, women don't be in position to control rather to be slave and be instructed. Women don't talk when they talk.
But he thought is in his house that's why he insisted he has ruled and he has ruled.

It is uncivil if I may say. Whatever thing ruled can be unrule because it is democracy and we are human.

AND HOW HAS THIS CERTIFICATED slowpoke USED THE KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED BY OUR MONEY TO TRANSFORM NIGERIA TO THE LIKES OF CHINA, USA, UAE, UK, EVEN THE CLOSET SOUTH AFRICA? WE NIGERIANS ARE QUICK IN ASSUMING WHEN SOMEBODY WAS PRIVILEGE TO ACQUIRED SUCH KNOWLEDGE WITH STOLEN MONEY THEN THEY SHOULD KNOW HOW TO PILOT THE WORLD, LET ME TELL YOU, CERTIFICATE SHOWS HOW FAR YOU HAVE GONE BUT INTUITION RULES THE WORLD, TELL THAT GUY TO USE COMMON SENSE AND STOP LOOKING FOR WAY TO USE THAT WOMAN SHINE, THAT WOMAN IS A COMPLETE EMBODIMENT OF KNOWLEDGE, WISDOM AND UNDERSTANDING.

agbameta:
Go through many ministry and agency, no money to carry out tangible work as madam Ngozi Okonjo Iweala need to give approval for disbursement of money even though it has been approved on budget. We can call that accountability, but milions of dollars are missing under her nose. Ezekwesili cried out some months ago that our economy but we politicised every sensitive information that we need to ask questions.

The woman is nothing but another mean spirited and incompetent Nigerian public official. This woman is still denying the people of Rivers portable water to drink.

This mean woman is yet to release the World Bank and African Development Bank (ADB) loans approved by the National Assembly for the provision of potable drinking water to the people of Rivers State.

Delafruita: shows how little people know about the law.the president has a right to veto a bill while the national assembly also has the right to pass that same bill through another round of legislation and if it still passes,the president's signature is not required to make it law

hercules07: Okonjo Iweala is lucky she is doing this in Nigeria, no Obama appointed "minister" dare try this nonsense with the US House of reps, dem no born am well. Imagine her talking to the HOR that way, well it is not her fault sha, those ones too have brought themselves low.

What is this shiit brain saying? You really need to work on your level of exposure!

tosan200:
15k agent,I can see you are doing your job perfectly. good boy.

I no know book:



The United States wey I dey or abi na ur imaginary USA? Make u no dey talk about the country wey u no sabi anything about. If there's any country in this whole wide world, where a cabinet member fit talk to a member of the legislature anyhow and go scot free, that country na the USA. Have u ever witnessed a congressional hearing in the US before? Abegi, if u have not, go and watch one at the least on the tv (PBS is a good starting point) and then come back and delete ur comment.

Now coming to the issue at stake, an unbiased mind can readily understand the ministers frustrations. She is the person saddled with the responsibility of making sure that our economy is on a good track. Obviously, appearing before the committee is definitely, one of the so many engagements competing for her time. Now for her to commit time to appear before the committee, despite her illness, shows the level of respect she has for the legislature. She could have decided not to appear and there was nothing they could have done about it. One expected the members of the committee to be cognizant of the fact that a federal minister is always time constrained, and whenever he or she makes an appearance before them, they should maximize the opportunity and make the most of it. Asking the honorable minister to go and come back sometime in the future when she was ready and willing to answer their questions, is to me, very uncalled for. Probably, the fact that they unlimited time in their hands to while away doing nothing, makes them believe every other person has that kind of time.

I commend the honorable minister for exercising great self restraint in the face of very obvious exhibition of I professionalism by the committee members.
