Despite owing salaries, the minister has just recruited 280 more staff into FAAN, who are all from the Northern part of the country, it was gathered.

So you allowed yourself to be cajoled by this jungle journalism? So sahara reporters are saying that money realized from the concessioning will be paid into the minister's personal account? You should always know when some vested interests are sponsoring the media to write a damaging piece against certain policies that they think will prevent them from unruly activities.

Iolo:


Hmmm. Valid points you’ve raised.

AnanseK:
Sirika is the best Minister at the moment. I know that wailers , haters and Igbos will go after him,

The Enugu Airport notwithstanding. How muc did Stella Oduah spend in her much hyped flimsy wall paper decorations of the airports that was falling apart even before she left office?

BigSarah:
The contract kickbacks aren’t enough for you? Haba

Carlylepneuma:
Hw was he able to have access to their wages? thought all Ministries and THE rest are on IPPIS

No matter how sound you are, you appear very stupid whenever or wherever you openly defend this government.

Iolo:
Very poor journalism. I would expect more substance backing the claims at the very least so the story makes more sense.

The minister doesn’t have the power to hold anybodies salary at any of the listed agencies. The article is written to make the reader believe otherwise.

FAAN is fully self funded and doesn’t draw salaries from the FG budget. They are expected to pay salaries from revenues they generate - they charge airlines 1k per ticket sold or so amongst other tariffs. I presume due to the lockdowns they are now struggling to pay salaries.

andyanders:
I understand ur submission as stated above. In a situation of the covid pandemic where lots of funds were donated to the FG, just tell me where and what they did with those funds.

A minister was given an a/c of billions of funds her ministry spent on feeding Nigerian school children during the lockdown. How did she get that done when no schl was opened. No single child student I knew that they feed during the lockdown.

Now, why shouldn't I blame the gorvernment?

Powermind:
This is exactly the same nonsense going on in Nigerian Ports Authority. The mass employment of Northerners even during lockdown and the none employment of eligible Southerners especially contract workers who have been in the organisation since time immediate

Racoon:

Nepotism under this government is unparalleled and unprecedented.Kastina mafias holding grip but neither their home state or the nation is in any way better for it.

Yet some demented people say restructuring or total disintegration should not happen.Kedunu ife mmadu melu ndia bikonu? Achikota ekwee onu.One Nigeria is a joke.Ogbara nkiti kwere ekwe(Silence is consent).

Ehiscotch:


So you are willing to throw all the achievements of the ministry under the bus because of some unsubstantiated claim based on rumours or half-truths?

Has there been anything or clause in the contract that even gives reason for you to believe something so preposterous as this?

Na wa oh, una suppose dey add filter to everything we una dey believe nau.
