bayelsaowei:I don't see Nigeria existing in the next 40 years. We are headed for total economic collapse at the pace we are going. The law of nature is adapt or die. The country and people don't want to change, even a simple reform or restructuring of government is being rejected, so total collapse is inevitable.

IMAliyu:you're correct and I agree.. Trillions of naira already stolen is what should have given us the right infrastructures to be fit for the future..but presently we have nothing...even with the pandemic our leaders and Co want to bleed our coffers dry.. NdDC is supposed to be leading the space in the niger delta in providing covid 19 materials, PPE, numerous ventilators, medical infrastructures and all that is needed for testing and handling of covid patients..but alas they are quarreling, fighting dirty over stolen monies.. what a cursed and embarrassing situation. |

cryptotech: Ah bros, take it easy ooo. you dont know the story. We were both joking about the BOT boyfriend. There's no mod by that name here. (well as far as I know) The antispam bot bans people a lot here even for some acceptable words or input values. The user can either decide to wait until the ban expires or email the Mods. There's nothing out of the process here. Which was why I recommended he emails the mods. If it was for disobeying NL rules or insulting people, most of the time, its the Mods that'll ban you not the bot. (because people find a way to manipulate the bot here) The bot probably banned him for something that appears alien to it, but probably accepted on the forum. |

If a minister Keyamo refuses to let the [b]fest[/b]ival reach us, should we say Keyamo Festus? We are not ready in this country... The truth will always prevail... Time will tell [Qquote author=FARA4GA post=91579776] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8958OUtijMo The Senate ad-hoc committee investigating the N40 billion corruption allegation against the interim management committee (IMC) of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) was stunned on Thursday when an official accused unnamed members of the parliament of ‘hijacking’ the commission’s budgets over the years. In his submission, at the hearing, the acting deputy director, projects, NDDC, Cairo Ojougboh, said the budgets of the commission ”have always been hijacked by the leadership of the committee on NDCC from both chambers for their personal gain”. He asked the National Assembly ”to let the commission function in peace.” “The budget(s) of the NNDC from 2001 till date, has (have) always been hijacked by the two chairmen of the committee; the chairman in the house and the chairman in the Senate,” the angry official said. ”Not one kobo has been misused since the coming of the IMC. “We want to beg the National Assembly that they should allow the people of the Niger Delta to grow. Since the inauguration of the IMC, we have not known peace. It has been one false allegation after another. “Some contracts supplied to ‘an NDDC warehouse’ along Benin-expressway. The warehouse belongs to Peter Nwabaoshi (a senator). About 2900 emergency projects were awarded and Mr Nwabaoshi collected 1000 of them saying he will distribute them among senators and House of Representatives members. But when asked, lawmakers denied receipt. We are being accused because we are working for the region and because they want to take over the commission. “NGOs were paid N50 billion but they (chairmen, committees of both chambers) cut it to N49 billion each. They want us out to put people they can control.” Tense session The Senate and House of Representatives are probing an allegation the NDDC interim committee ‘squandered’ N40 billion within three months. They also seek account for other financial transactions within this period. At the investigative hearing on Thursday, the lawmakers grilled members of the board who appeared before the committee over alleged discrepancies in the budget submitted by the commission, the Accountant General of the Federation (AGF) and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN). The chairman of the committee, Olubunmi Adetunmbi, pointed out that while the commission said it spent N81.5 billion, the AGF submitted N82 billion and CBN submitted N92.2 billion between October 2019 and May 2020. The committee sought explanations as to how other allocations in the budget were implemented. They include: Condolences – N122 million, Consultancy – N83.3 million, N3.14 billion – COVID-19, N486 million – Duty Tour Allowance (out of which the current EIMC spent N305.3 million between February and May 2020). Others are N1.9 billion – Lassa fever intervention spent by both IMCs, N900 million – Legal Services, N61 million – Logistics, N2.6 billion – medicals. Defence Although there was no tangible explanation for the differences in the budgets submitted by the commission, the AGF and CBN, the Acting Managing Director, Kemebradikumo Daniel Pondei, however, said the EIMC ”inherited so much debt that needed to be cleared upon assumption of office.” He also said allowances like duty tours were not paid to staff for years hence the need for such allocations. He further said the NDDC has not awarded any contract apart from the COVID-19 contract awarded by the president. “We refused to do so, so as not to add to the confusion. The major interventions for COVID-19 were medical, palliatives, publicity,” he said. Mr Ojougboh also denied allegations that the commission sacked some of its staff. “Anyone who has said they have been sacked or suspended let him bring the letter. We have not sacked or suspended anyone. No one is being witch-hunted. Staff on leave are receiving full salaries,” he said. Earlier, a representative from the Office of the Accountant General, Slyvia Okolie, said the OAGF submitted the NDDC’s audit report from 2016 to May, 2020 to the committee. He said in 2017 – N64 billion, 2018 – N71 billion, 2019 – N71 billion, January – May 2020 – N34 billion has been released to NDDC. Quarterly releases were suspended since June pending the outcome of the investigation, he said. The investigative hearing will continue on Friday, the chairman said. All invitees are expected to be present – including the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Godswill Akpabio, who failed to show up. This is not the first time the lawmakers would be having a faceoff with another government official over the activities of an agency or ministry. PREMIUM TIMES reported how the minister of labour, (state), Festus Keyamo, accused lawmakers of trying to manipulate a recruitment process to their advantage.

This is the reason why we should reject another lock down because the figure is not true as they are speculating it. They have more than expected to spend and keep preaching we should stay at home and die of hunger and also do away with education. Their own routine is home to office to meeting in villa and back home and get paid heavily on each routine but our own is stay home and die. If this news is true as stated, then the corona virus figure is a scam by some greedy individual. This are the kind of people ddiscouraging is on the belive of the existence of the virus. At the end of it all, we ll still be praising them. WE ARE IN A MESS |
