but if we must tell ourselves the truths. Islam is politics. no gain saying about it. you cant remove islam from politics, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Libya. etc. once Muslims are close to half of the majority they will start to push for Islamic state.

This is not Metamorphosis, it is simply the abandonment of the only party in the fourth republic that appears to have an ideology to embracing political prostitution all in the name of controlling the central government. Tinubu is nothing short of a Political Prostitute. That is why managing national political success is a big problem for the APC as it is an outcome of the biggest political prostitution in Nigeria's chequered political history.
What was the ideology of ACN that APC doesn’t have?

How does merger become political prostitution? You prefer ACN to be restricted to the south-west rather than merge with others to have national outlook?

CrimeRe: "Women Who Wear Ripped Jeans Deserve To Be Raped” - Egyptian Lawyer by 2n2k(m):
World: Europe

Women in jeans 'cannot be raped'

Italy's highest court has ruled that a woman wearing jeans cannot be raped.

The Supreme Court of Appeal in Rome on Wednesday overturned a rape conviction, saying that the supposed victim must have agreed to sex because her jeans could not have been removed without her consent.

A court in the southern town of Potenza had convicted a driving instructor of raping his 18-year-old pupil.

The instructor, aged 45 and identified only as Carmine, had been sentenced to 34 months' jail.

His defence had argued that the young woman - identified as Rosa - had consented to sex, a version of events which the woman strongly denied.

The Supreme Court ruled that it was impossible to remove a pair of jeans "without the collaboration of the person wearing them", and that the young woman must therefore have consented to sex.

In a judgement likely to anger women's rights organisations, the rape conviction was reversed.

Driving instructors in Italy have a reputation, deserved or undeserved, for molesting young female pupils, and the case appeared at first to be a familiar story of sexual assault on a lonely country road.


http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/277263.stm

For the religious and racial bigots criticising the lawyer, not on the merits or demerits of what he espoused, what do you have to say about this Italian case? Or was the Italy Supreme Court influenced by Arab and/or Islam too?

The lawyer only stated his personal opinion, why tar the whole race or religion with the same brush.

No. He was appointed by OBJ in 2000 as a member of Interim Management Committee of PTF

The sole mandate of the committee was to investigate and wind down the PTF. Remember that the first act of obj when he took office a year earlier was to abolish PTF because he saw it as a parallel government much to the chagrin of Buhari.

For obj to have appointed him into imc that time, it means he was not overtly pro-Buhari since it was imc that probed Buhari’s tenure in PTF.

It owns more properties in London than the Queen and the Mayor Office.
In London, Qatar-backed entities have purchased a number skyscrapers, including Canary Wharf, HSBC Tower, and The Shard.
Qatar bought U.K. department store, Harrods back in 2010.
Qatar raised its stake in British Airways owner IAG to 20 percent and purchased a 20 percent stake in London Heathrow last year.

France

Qatar Sports Investments owns Paris Saint-Germain Football Club.

U.S.

In New York, Qatar's investment arm bought nearly a 10 percent stake in, Empire State Realty Trust, the owners of the Empire State Building, last year. The skyscraper was recently lit up with Qatari flag colors to commemorate the 10th anniversary of flights on Qatar Airways between the U.S. and Doha.
A Qatari media group, BeIN, purchased Miramax Studios last year for an undisclosed amount.
The fund has also invested in Uber and recently announced plans to open an office in Silicon Valley to invest more into U.S.-based tech firms.

Singapore

In Singapore, QIA purchased one of the well-known Asia Square towers from BlackRock for $2.5 billion. It was the largest office transaction in Singapore's history

''suspension'' is not a sacking from a position. It only means u are put on hold from acting your duties. U can decide to resign in order to stop the humiliation honourably.
You cannot resign while on suspension.

You are suspended because you are under investigation which may attract stiffer punishment if the findings are not in your favour.

Your suspension is to prevent you from tampering with or influence the investigative process.

Once you resign, your employer can no longer discipline you. What if you defraud the company and you then resign while you are on suspension during investigation. Which employer will accept that?

The picture wasn’t posted by Garba Shehu but by a Special Assistant on Social Media (Bashir Ahmad). I suspect he did not send that tweet from Nigeria, hence the different time zone.

Paperwhite:
[/b]Mr Metuh is facing trial for allegedly receiving N400 million out of the $2.1 billion dollars arms fund from the former National Security Adviser to Dr Jonathan, Colonel Sambo Dasuki
Justice Abang in his ruling struck out the application on the ground that Colonel Dasuki is not a party in the case before him and as such the court lacks jurisdiction to entertain the application."[b]

How can Abang's court claimed that Metuh received money from Dasuki and the same time dismissed the latter as a witness in the case?
hush15:
Very simple, the judge already knows that's going to be an serious issue should the judge request dansuki's presence as a witness and FG has refused to provide the guy for his own case, not to now mention Metuh 's. The judge doesn't want to be harassed thus avoiding confrontation with FG's.
You didn’t get what happened.

Metuh applied that Dasuki be subpoenaed (i.e. ordered to appear) by the court as his witness. The court granted the application.

However, instead of appearing, Dasuki applied to the court that the court should ask the DSS to release him from custody first, before he can appear as witness for Metuh.

It is that application that the court dismissed and asked him to comply with the earlier court order to appear as witness.

The president never gave any approval. It was entirely between the AGF, OHSF, Ministry of interior and FCSC. Below is a copy of the reinstatement letter.
If this letter is genuine, then the Head of Service is a bloody liar.

The letter written to Maina is through her Under Flying Seal (UFS) as clearly stated in the letter.
UFS means the letter is not sealed and she is to read it and forward it to the recipient. In civil Service, this is usually noted by the superior officer by ticking across that UFS line to show he/she has seen the letter before forwarding.

For people accusing the president, they don’t know civil Service procedures. Why should the president be involved in discipline of an Assistant Director? We are not talking of a permanent Secretary

Nonsense! who is the judge? He should be arrested and questioned about the credibility of the career. cry
#sad
The case brought to the court is conspiracy and fraud not rape.

Since N600,000 is the amount involved, the court granted bail in like sum.

The case of rape will be difficult to prove, may be that is why the police left it out. Note that, according to the news report, it was some days later when she couldn’t find them to collect the ‘doubled’ money that she involved the police. Without medical test and report, a rape case in that circumstance will likely fail.

Tinubu of all people would be remembered for forcing a Jihadist on the Nation while having a RCCG pastor as wife.
Since you apparently didn’t read the story before commenting, here is the summary

1. In 2014, an internal auditor (Muslim) blew whistle on 3 Executive Directors (Christians) that they had no nysc discharge certificate

2. The then president (Christian) sacked the executive directors (Christians) immediately.

3. In 2015, the current president (Muslim) appointed and uplifted one of the sacked Christians to a higher position of permanent Secretary and proceeded to sack the whistle blower (Muslim).

4. The sacked whistle blower (Muslim) is now petitioning to be re-instated but the (jihadist) government appear not looking at her side.

Incoherent article! One paragraph says the CBN sells to commercial banks at $1=305, another says $1=358. Which do we believe?
Well, it doesn't change the fact that Emirs get $ at 199.50 and islamic pilgrimages get theirs at 238naira.
psalmson001:
So who is saying the truth now?
When the CBN first started its intervention, it was selling to banks at N305 (which is the official exchange rate till today) and to BDC at N380 with the hope of crowding out the bdc and that the exchange rate will converge not too far from its selling rates to banks.

As a result of restructuring of foreign exchange management in February this year which allows direct forex access for PTA/BTA, medical and tuition fees, it adjusted the rate to N358 for banks and reduced that of bdc to N360 for such transactions. Also SMEs can access forex for importation at N359/360 while still retaining the official exchange rate at N305.

The first interviewee quoted the old figures, may be because he has been out of business since the restructuring.

PoliticsKachikwu: Issues Raised In Memo Were Not On Fraud But Governance by 2n2k(op): 5:14pm On Oct 13, 2017
………Meanwhile, Kachikwu, who started the entire storm that has snowballed into who between the president and his deputy actually approved the loans for NNPC, has stated that his memo to Buhari did not border on fraud but on governance and on the best ways to move the oil and gas sector forward in the country.

He also expressed deep confidence in the president as a thorough, clean and meticulous leader whose interest is to better the lot of Nigerians.

Kachikwu, who stated this in Owerri, the Imo State capital while speaking on the third day of Nigerian content workshop organised by the Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB), decried the misrepresentation by some Nigerians on the issues raised in his memo, stressing that no one was accused of committing fraud in the NNPC contract awards.
“The conversation has been largely misunderstood to border on fraud. It was not on fraud, but on governance and suggested ways to go about it. I think a lot of people got it wrong.

“People dwell much on issues of sensationalism and leave the main substance. I think I and the Group Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, Dr. Maikanti Baru are working together as Mr. President has directed that we move forward,” he said.


According to the minister, “Mr. President has urged the two of us to find ways of working together to remove doubt and rift. Mr. President is a decent man and what he wants to achieve in this country is to leave a legacy for posterity.

“He is a sincere leader, so nobody should accuse him of engaging in fraud.”
He commended the management of NCDMB headed by its executive secretary, Mr. Simbi Wakote, for promoting and enforcing Nigerian content in the oil and gas sector.

“NCDMB is blessed in terms of the quality of personnel in that parastatal. They have done well in ensuring that things move well in his area. Simbi has made the institution stronger and I congratulate you and your folks,” he said.

Kachikwu, however, observed that not much local content had been engaged in offshore oil and gas operations and enjoined the NCDMB to move in that direction.

He announced that by next year, the facilities in Port Harcourt and Kaduna would be available to train unskilled Nigerians to acquire skills in the oil and gas sector, adding that the Petroleum Trust Development Fund (PTDF) and the Petroleum Training Institute (PTI) would be responsible for the program me.
