PoliticsEFCC Arrests Ex-governors Ohakim, Nyako; Set To Arraign Them by 9ousky(op): 12:34pm On Jul 08, 2015
The former governors of Imo and Adamawa
States, Ikedi Ohakim and Murtala Nyako, and
Mr. Nyako’s son, Abdul-aziz, have been
arrested by officials of the Economic Financial
Crimes Commission.
The former governors, and Abdul-aziz Nyako,
who is a senator now, are to be arraigned at a
Federal High Court in Abuja on Wednesday on
different cases of alleged corruption.
A source at the EFCC had in June told
PREMIUM TIMES that Mr. Ohakim had
questions to answer concerning a number of
properties allegedly traced to him.
The commission said in a statement that the
two Nyakos were wanted on allegations of
stealing, abuse of office and money
laundering.
Mr. Nyako’s son had been interrogated by the
EFCC over alleged illicit funds traced to
companies in which he had interest.
Specifically, he was asked to explain how over
N15 billion belonging to Adamawa State was
allegedly laundered into the accounts of five
companies said to owned by him.
The companies are Blue Opal Nigeria Limited,
Crust Energy Nigeria Limited, Blue Ribbon
Multilinks Limited, Tower Assets Management
Limited and Blue Ribbon Bureau De Change.
The funds were allegedly funnelled into the
accounts of the five companies, from
Adamawa state government bank accounts.
The transfer was done by the account officer
who incidentally is the manager of the bank
and an in-law to former governor, Mr. Nyako.
The EFCC said the manager claimed he
transferred the funds based on verbal
instructions from the former governor for
purposes that were not stated.
The commission said its investigations
revealed that from 2007 to 2011, the then
Governor Nyako directed that all state-owned
accounts domiciled in various banks be
transferred to the account supervised by his
in-law.
Abdul-Aziz Nyako’s company, Blue Opal, is
said to own, among other investments in
Nigeria, an estate in Abuja, while his father’s
account officer owns several properties and
investments scattered around Abuja, Yola and
Kano.

PoliticsFAAC Disowns Okonjo-iweala; Denies Approving Withdrawal Of $2bn ECA by 9ousky(op): 4:14pm On Jul 07, 2015
Commissioners of Finance and Accountants
General of the 36 states of the federation on
Tuesday distanced themselves from claims by
the former Minister of Finance, Ngozi Okonjo-
Iweala, that they were part of the decision to
withdraw and spend $2bn from Nigeria’s
excess crude oil revenue account last
December.
Edo State governor, Adams Oshiomhole, and
his Kaduna State counterpart, Nasir El Rufai,
had, after the National Economic Council
(NEC) meeting in Abuja on Tuesday last week,
accused Mrs. Okonjo-Iweala of unilaterally
approving the withdrawal of about $2.1 bn
from the $4.1 bn left in the Excess Crude
Account (ECA) last November “without
authorization”.
But in a swift reaction, the former Minister
had vehemently rejected the accusation,
describing allegations linking her to the
allegations as “false, malicious and totally
without foundation”.
Mrs. Okonjo-Iweala’s reaction, conveyed
through a statement by her Media Adviser,
Paul Nwabuikwu, said all expenditures from
the ECA “were discussed at meetings of the
Federation Accounts Allocation Committee
(FAAC) attended by finance commissioners
from the 36 states”.
“It is curious that in their desperation to use
the esteemed National Economic Council for
political and personal vendetta, the persons
behind these allegations acted as if the
constitutionally recognized FAAC, a potent
expression of Nigeria’s fiscal federalism, does
not exist,” she said.
But in a stern reaction on Tuesday in Abuja,
members of the FAAC, under the aegis of the
Forum of Commissioners of Finance, disowned
the former minister, describing her claim as
“misleading and far from the fact”.
“It has come to our notice the statement
credited to the former Coordinating Minister of
the Economy and Honorable Minister of
Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, that the
Federation Account Allocation Committee
(FAAC) approved the withdrawal from Excess
Crude (Foreign) Account the sum of Two
Billion U.S. Dollar ($2,000,000,000.00),” the
commissioner said.
“This statement is far from the fact and is
misleading,” the statement said.
The FAAC meeting for November 2014 ended
in confusion when the then Minister of State
for Finance, Bashir Yuguda, could not explain
how the balance in the ECA had dropped from
$4.1 bn at the end of October to $3.1 bn.
Prior to the October FAAC meeting, Mrs.
Okonjo-Iweala had told reporters that the
balance of the ECA stood at $4.11bn, while
the country’s external reserves rose from $
36.6bn in June to $39.48billion as at October
16.
Regardless, the then Chairman of the Forum of
State Commissioners of Finance and former
Ebonyi State Commissioner of Finance,
Timothy Odaah, had denied knowledge of any
decision to withdraw from the account,
insisting that none of its members was aware
of the withdrawal.
“No state knew how the $1 bn difference
reported in the Excess Crude Account balance,
between October and November, came about,”
Mr. Odaah told reporters then. “The
discrepancy has been noted for discussion at
the next FAAC meeting. It calls to question
how transparent the management of the
excess crude revenues has been.”
Till the end of his tenure, Mr. Odaah, who later
claimed reconciliation was ongoing with the
Finance Minister, did not reveal his findings.
However, several months later, Mr.
Oshiomhole stirred the controversy afresh last
week with the allegation that the former
minister was economical with the truth about
the country’s finances.
Mr. Oshiomhole had lambasted Mrs. Okonjo-
Iweala over her claims that Nigerians knew
what the three tiers of government usually
collect through the State Finance
Commissioners who usually attend the
monthly FAAC meetings.
The power to take money from the ECA, Mr.
Oshiomhole argued, is vested in the NEC, an
institution created by the constitution, and not
State Finance Commissioners, who are not
known by the constitution.
In disowning Mrs. Okonjo-Iweala, the
Commissioners’ Forum pointed out that the
law setting up FAAC, which predates the ECA,
“cannot approve withdrawal and has not done
so in the past.”
If anything, the Commissioners said, records
of FAAC meetings show that members have
always queried the activities on the ECA, and
therefore did not decide any withdrawal.
Although the Commissioners said they
observed the withdrawal of $2bn from the ECA
in December 2014, the then Minister of State
Finance and Chairman of FAAC, Mr. Yuguda,
had explained during plenary that approval
came from former President Goodluck
Jonathan.
The withdrawals were to help pay subsidy
claims to oil marketers, who had threaten to
stop importing petroleum products.
“FAAC did not and could not have approved,
nor took the decision to withdraw the sum of
Two Billion U.S. Dollar ($2,000,000,000.00)
from the Excess Crude Account,” the
Commissioners said.

No u Ar very wrong. ur friend dat says women always stay at d back row is also wrong. For ur information in some mosques ar structured such DAT d men and women space Ar side by side but only bn separated by a wall, in some cases d mosque is structured such DAT d men Ar at lower stairs and women Ar at d upper stairs. And in Islam women Ar given d privilege to observe their prayers best at their homes but men Ar not allow to pray at home but at mosques.So u can see DAT in Islam women irrespective whether they come to mosque or not they can observe their prayers.Regarding d position they stay at mosque, in Islam Muslim women can not lead prayers for the men, men lead prayers and their properly separated from d women thru a demarcation or wall and their prayers are bn just like men

PoliticsUnanswered Questions On Nigeria’s Missing Oil Revenue Billions-lamido Sanusi by 9ousky(op): 8:56pm On May 13, 2015
Lines of investigation suggested by the PwC
audit need to be pursued, writes Lamido
Sanusi
Just over a year ago President Goodluck
Jonathan suspended me from my position as
governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria after I
questioned an estimated $20bn shortfall in oil
revenues due to the treasury from the state oil
company. As I said then, you can suspend a
man, but you cannot suspend the truth. The
publication last month of a PwC audit into the
“missing billions” brings us a step closer to it.
When I was central bank governor I raised
three broad questions. First, did the Nigerian
National Petroleum Corporation remit to the
government the entire proceeds of its crude oil
sales? Second, if it did not, is there proof of
the purpose to which the unremitted amounts
were applied? And third, did NNPC have the
legal authority to withhold these funds?
Contrary to the claims of petroleum minister
Diezani Alison-Madueke, the audit report does
not exonerate the NNPC. It establishes that
the gap between the company’s oil revenues
between January 2012 and July 2013 and
cash remitted to the government for the same
period was $18.5bn. And it goes into detail
about the NNPC’s account of how it used that
money, which raises serious questions about
the legality of the state oil company’s
conduct.
The auditors say a significant part of the
unremitted funds is supposed to have gone
towards a kerosene subsidy that had been
stopped two and a half years earlier by the
late President Umaru Yar’Adua. His decree
never appeared in the official gazette, leading
some to question whether it ever had legal
force.
Evidence disclosed in the report suggests this
is a sideshow. The executive secretary of the
agency charged with administering subsidies
confirmed that, acting on Yar’Adua’s orders, it
had ceased granting subsidies on kerosene.
There was no appropriation for such a subsidy
in the 2012 or 2013 budgets.
Throughout all this, Nigerians paid 120-140
naira a litre of kerosene, far more than the
supposed subsidised price of 50 naira. Yet the
state oil company withheld $3.4bn to pay for
a subsidy that in effect did not exist. I have
consistently held that this was a scam that
violated the constitution and siphoned off
money from the treasury.
The second major item raised in the report
relates to the transfer of oil assets belonging
to the federation to the Nigerian Petroleum
Development Company, a subsidiary of the
NNPC.
NPDC has paid $100m for these assets, from
which it extracted crude valued at $6.8bn but
paid tax and royalties worth $1.7bn in the
period scrutinised by the auditors. PwC was
unable to establish how much of the
remaining $5.1bn should have been remitted
to the government. But the report showed
that, along with the private companies NPDC
partnered with, it was extracting crude worth
billions of dollars but yielding very little
revenue for the treasury. I was investigating
related transactions when I was suspended.
The third major item is a claim of $2.8bn by
NNPC for expenses not directly attributable to
crude oil operations; PwC said “clarity is
required” on whether such upfront deductions
from remittances to the federation accounts
are allowed, or whether the money should
have been remitted to the government. Finally,
there are duplicated expenses, “unsubstantiate
d” costs, computation “errors” and tax
shortfalls; a total of $1.48bn has to be
refunded.
Of the $18.5bn in revenues that the state oil
company did not send to the government,
about $12.5bn appears by my calculations to
have been diverted. And this relates only to a
random 19-month period, not the five-year
term of Mr Jonathan, the outgoing president.
Nigerians did not vote for an amnesty for
anyone. The lines of investigation suggested
by this audit need to be pursued. Any officials
found responsible for involvement in this
apparent breach of trust must be charged.

PoliticsRe: Nigeria’s Economy Under Threat As Debts Hit N11trillion by 9ousky: 9:07am On May 07, 2015
barcanista:
I always insist in patriotism above partisanship. Nobody should be comfortable when his country borrows to pay Salaries like what we are experiencing. The APC as the ruling party-elect is yet to tell us of any developmental programs that will cause for more work and less for reliance on government stipends. VP-elect Osinbanjo once said that the APC administration will reverse the propose increase in tarrif for imported vehicles. A reversal of that program will only promote reliance on import which isn't economic friendly. No country that rely on import can progress.

The APC also talked about packages for unemployed, nysc members (after one year completion of service), elderly, disabled etc... All these are consumable programs that can never be sustainable and will only plunge us into more borrowings to fund the program (for how long?)

The APC is yet to take a public position on the whether or not subsidy should be retained(though their antecedent is pro-subsidy). If subsidy should be removed, when should that be and what do they plan to put as paliative before removal? If retained, how do they hope to fund it considering the ever increasing bill of the cabals?

Should we continue to rely on oil and borrowing or what other plans do they have to raise funds? The APC Govs apart from taxation, what other means do they generate funds? They all went to Abuja to meet the President-elect, is that not an indictment on their part when they should be with their team brainstorming? Their posture shows that they plan to shift more burden on the incoming FG, how is that different from what is presently obtainable? Such mentality only shows a continuation of the status quo. Which I believe shouldn't be our lot.
U started with a Gud a post only to later show ur thru intention... The present administration put us all in this mess but all u can conclude on is APC and its Governors. I only want u to wait sincerely let d incoming government b sworn in then after 100 days u say whatever u want...

PoliticsOur Government Will Not Witch-hunt Anyone – Buhari by 9ousky(op): 2:56pm On Apr 29, 2015
President Elect, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari has
inaugurated a 19-member transition
committee with a charge to members not to
engage in a witch hunt or fault finding.
He also announced that his administration
would not witch-hunt anybody because he
was aware that government is a continuum.
Buhari said this while inaugurating the Ahmed
Joda-led transition committee in Abuja, on
Wednesday.
While expressing gratitude to members of the
committee for accepting to serve at very short
notice, he explained that the change from one
government to another always involves
complicated operational challenges.
According to him, the incoming government
needs to know where the previous government
stopped so that it can know where to
continue.
He noted that Nigeria was blessed with
outstanding men and women of competence
and experience in different fields out of which
his team has picked the nineteen to ensure a
smooth process.
Buhari told committee members, “this
assignment though onerous, it is well within
your ability to accomplish, you are required to
assess the information provided to you and
advise me on its quality and accuracy.”He
also said, “It is a simple matter but you must
have the right information if you are to shape
appropriate policy decisions. Needless to
repeat; that your committee and our
government are not to witch-hunt or engage
in fault finding.
“We want the facts and nothing but the facts,
what has been done cannot be undone, our
job is to learn from the mistakes of the past in
an attempt to avoid similar errors.“The time
given for you to complete your assignment,
two weeks, is short but because of the
postponement of the election for six weeks
from February 14 to March 28, the transition
period has been truncated, we are obliged
therefore to fast track steps to May 29.”The
President elect also charged the committee to
ensure that it does not overlook
“essentials.”Buhari who spoke glowingly about
Mallam Ahmed Joda the committee chairman,
described him as one of the few surviving links
of the first republic civil service to the present
day.
He enjoined members of the committee to be
prepared to work hard because Joda is an
exerting task master adding that very few
young men of his age can keep up with him.
Chairman of the Committee, Mallam Ahmed
Joda who spoke on behalf of other members
expressed appreciation to the President elect
for considering them to be worthy to help
prepare the ground for the incoming
administration to take over smoothly on May
29, 2015.He said, “We as a committee are
determined to do the best we can within the
time that is allowed to accomplish your
wishes and to make it possible for you to
achieve your vision and all that you wish for
our country.“When I met you and you briefed
me about this assignment, about the
composition of the committee, I did observe
that I’ve never served on a committee so
weighty like this.
“I have people who are distinguished in their
professions, who have their own enterprises
and have their own businesses to look after
and even serving governors and people in
active service to the service of your incoming
government and to the service of our
motherland.”He explained to the gathering
that members of the committee met for the
first time on Wednesday to get to meet and
know one another and plan the committee’s
schedule of activities over the next two weeks.
Joda also noted that members of the
committee were committed and willing to work
long hours even on weekends to deliver on
their tasks.“I promise you that we’ll do our
best because we are not only serving you, we
are serving our people. We are going to try to
begin to lay the foundation for a strong
country where justice and peace prevail.” He
said.
The chairman expressed the opinion that
Nigerians entrusted general Buhari with the
task of healing their wounds and wiping away
their tears and leading our nation to
greatness because of the confidence they have
in his ability.Joda also said, “I pledge every
one of us will give you the best and most
earnest advice from the bottom of our hearts
in order that our country, together in peace
and unity can realize our goals and
aspirations.“I thank you once again on behalf
of my members and I wish you every success,
your success is our success and the success
of our children and grandchildren and the
citizens of Nigeria.”
Members of the committee are: Ahmed Joda,
Dr. Doyin Salami, Adamu Adamu,Wale Edun,
Mrs. Bola Adesola, Dr. Festus Odumegu and
Mrs. Nike Aboderin and the national chairman
of the All Progressives Congress, Chief John
Oyegun.
Others are: Rivers State Governor, Rotimi
Amaechi, Chief Audu Ogbeh, Boss Mustapha,
Sen. Hadi Sirika, Dr. Ogbonaya Onu, Alh.
Abubakar Malami, Gen. Lawal Jafar Isa,
Mohammed Hayatudeen, Solomon Dalong,
Prof. Tam David West and the national

Only if others can learn from you... They can be opposition if they but the way they Ar playing it is just too extreme because Already dey see nothing Gud from d incoming government, they av branded dem failure already.

Mr Buhari will not be allowed to Bring back Decree4 through the back door. He wanted to test ground with Ait to see whether he will have for a more tougher action against the Press. Buhari better focus on governance and understand his power as President-elect/Presiden. He should stop subjecting himself to public ridicule

Stop acting like a scallywag, even if u are. Aljazeerah, Sahara Reporters, Vanguard and others are known for spreading defamatory news about GEJ and his government. But answer this, how many times did he retort, not to mention, place a ban on any of these media houses? Even when they disgrace his wife. None! Now that's democracy! Before the election, Buhari lashed back at people talking ills about him. Today he's banning AIT. Where does that happen in the world of democracy
You animals need to learn!
You.Ar making a mistake there is difference. between "Banning" and "Barring"... Check ur dictionary and Even from d news they never Ban nor Banning... I don't know why una just like to dey create problems for una self when no one is even noticing una

Dis same AIT has bn airing And covering him since after d election has bn concluded and if He now want them to step aside for reasons best known to him den we should respect d man's decisions, his privacy and for his security.... I don't know why u Ar generalizing AIT as d whole media... There are other stations all around now. So watz ur problem?
