Abacha loot: Emirs and Chiefs were consulted when money was kept overseas ― Al-Mustapha

Is the story been rewriting?


White lies are lies you will be fed until they become true.

Well there are to many actors who wants to change the narrative or who are changing the narrative.

Why are all the actors from the same segment of the country.... Are the other actors from the other segment not part of it as claimed by Almustapha?

If they are all dead.... Then this will be a story of my story VS yours.

Fingers crossed #conspiracy

NBC , please do the right as long as it is in the interest of Nigeria. Most times, investors are overtaken by quest for profits and they shortchange the process/system and thereby creating pains for consumers. You must also act as not to be seen chasing investors away.
Already, the investors are fighting back by paying a writer to put this report together to rubbish the broadcasting code.

You just summarised their fate.

Thanks

Reality has finally hit him hard

5 years after believing that an old man with barely any education can save a country which has been misrule for over 50 years, he is now starting to smell the coffee.

Rotimi Amaechi will be laughing at him now

Kano has become the centre piece of politicking.

If you vote US we would complete the project then Boom.... Nothing happens

I don't know what to believe this days.... Just passing

Inspirational speaker.... The vibe you give him is control. No man will accept that best still be his friend.

If this story is not all sides of the coin....
Permit me to say if Jide is Wike's handler and his salary is but his peck then Anita can relocate. If otherwise...then Anita needs to be more creative, tell Jide to take 30million yearly for relocation and see if he would refuse?

I want to share my problem with you guys in the hopes that maybe I'll get some good advice or at least some insight into my problem.

When people first meet me their impression of me is that I'm good looking, cool and intelligent. Most girls usually assume that I have a girlfriend or a legion of side chicks that I Bleep whenever I want to.

The truth about me is that I've never been in a proper relationship with another woman before. All I've had is sexual partners that I stop talking to after I have sex with them, and girls I get intimate with just to control them and get them to fulfil my desire of having a female to own, please me and do my biding, and then I get bored of them and cease contact and move on like I never knew them.

The reason for this behavior is that I don't possess the emotional resources needed to engage in a healthy relationship with another human being. I have no empathy and I usually feel no guilt or remorse for my actions. It's impossible for me to care genuinely for another person. I don't feel people's pain or suffering and I'm not moved by the death of family members or friends. I simply do not care for any other person but myself. I've been this way for a very long time. I lack the ability to maintain relationships with people hence why I lose friends often. Relationships are usually a means to an end for me and when that end is met, I become irritated by the person I've gotten close to.

Despite the fact that I don't see the point in relationships, I still find that I get jealous of couples in healthy relationships. It's not like I want to experience what they experience, just that I am envious of the fact that they are participating in something I can't participate in.

When I find a girl that I want to get close to, I'm usually consumed with jealousy over her previous relationships, and over any current relationship she has with any member of the opposite sex, even if it's merely platonic. All I want is for her to devote all her time to me and shower me with attention and love. The problem with all this is that I don't want to reciprocate this behavior. In fact the idea of devoting attention to, and showering affection on someone else irritates me. It's all pointless, but I enjoy when it's done to me.

Another weird side to all this is that I don't just want to control the girl, I also enjoy making her feel bad, but in a way that makes her crave for me more. I enjoy poking holes in herself esteem, making her second guess the presumably good qualities she thought she possesed, making her not feel wanted by me, and making her do more to please me.

I don't love women, I only become obsessed with them. Obsessed to the point that I'm constantly tortured by thoughts of them being sexual with another guy especially when it's someone she has dated before. I want her all to myself and even if she had sex with someone before I met her or before we became close, I am filled with anger and jealousy whenever the thought crosses my mind, and I want to punish her for that. It's like I want to erase her past and replace it with me. I want to be all she's ever had. I don't want anyone else in her life and I don't want anyone else in her past.

All this must sound crazy to you guys but this is my reality and it's eating me up. I need advice.

The only thing I see is a psychiatric disorder called OCD.... If you can open up please see a consultant psychiatrist.

What should take 10-15 years, the global scientific community hopes to cram into months. The World Health Organization (WHO) says there are 70 vaccines in the works for COVID-19, four of the most promising are already being tested.

The billions being spent now could help return the economy back to normality. There is no guarantee that any of the vaccines will work.

For now, on and off lockdowns and flare-ups of coronavirus could be the norm.

The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation will fund the manufacturing of seven potential vaccines. Despite the fact that billions of dollars could be wasted, maybe just one or two of the vaccines will be successful. But Bill Gates argues that losing a billion is better than the global economy losing trillions of dollars.

The United States has set aside $27bn from its multitrillion-dollar stimulus package for the development of vaccines. It bet almost $500m on drugmaker Moderna to deliver its COVID-19 vaccine, which is already in trials.

Tech start-up BenevolentAI has unleashed its machine-learning power to find existing drugs that may be used in the fight against the pandemic. It has identified a rheumatoid arthritis drug from Eli Lilly that may do the job.

It is just one of many drugs that are in trials right now.

And it is not just the Western world that has the scientific know-how to beat the virus, in Senegal a laboratory has used its AIDS and Ebola experience to develop a $1 COVID-19 testing kit.

While there are no drugs to treat COVID-19, enterprising pharmaceutical companies are using existing drugs to help those seriously affected by the pathogen. CytoDyn is seeking approval for compassionate use of its drug.

Dr Nader Pourhassan, chief executive of US drugmaker CytoDyn, tells Al Jazeera about the effect of its drugs on patients facing severe and critical coronavirus symptoms.

Has OPEC lost its ability to control oil prices?
A pandemic, a global glut and a lack of storage was the perfect storm that sent US oil prices into negative territory for the first time ever.

Traders were forced to pay buyers to take oil off their hands. With oil at historic lows, the US oil industry is paying a heavy price with many companies filing for bankruptcy.

Despite OPEC's record production cut, oil prices have fallen further. Has the oil cartel lost its ability to manage prices?

Rajat Kapoor, an oil analyst and managing director of Oil & Gas at AWR Lloyd, shares his thoughts on oil prices and the industry's current challenges with Al Jazeera.

Should governments consider green bonds to revive pandemic-hit economies?
As the world throws out the rule book and spends trillions of dollars to avoid a total collapse of economies, is it time to consider stimulus that can carry us beyond the crisis?

The lockdown has proven, the natural world will go on without us. While many nations have targets to reduce pollution, the money tells us otherwise.

$250bn in "green bonds" were issued last year. Green bonds work in the same way as others but are specifically used for environmental and climate-related projects.

It may sound like a lot but added to what is already out there, that is less than 0.1 percent of the total government debt which stands at $9 trillion dollars worldwide.

Paul Simpson, chief executive of non-profit environmental consultancy CDP, explains green bonds and whether governments should consider using them to revive the pandemic-hit economies.

Senegal's $1 COVID-19 test kit and the race for a vaccine | Coronavirus ...

Ebullience:
The President of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), Professor Biodun Ogunyemi, has rejected the condition set by the Federal Government for the payment of February and March salaries to ASUU members being withheld over failure to enrol on the Integrated Personnel Payroll Information System.

He, therefore, directed all affected lecturers not to submit their Bank Verification Number (BVN), to Vice-Chancellors before they are paid their February and March salaries.

Speaking with Tribune Online on the telephone, on Wednesday, in Abuja, Ogunyemi, who noted that the Union would get to the government for further clarification insisted that submission of BVN to Vice-Chancellors was a clandestine move to force ASUU members on IPPIS.

Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, had on Tuesday, at a briefing in Abuja said President Muhammadu Buhari has directed the Ministry of Finance, Budget and National Planning to immediately pay the lecturers the withheld salaries.

Ogunyemi said: “We are going back to the government to clarify it. The initial information we got was that the President directed the Ministry of Finance to pay salaries of our members that are withheld.

“Our salaries were not withheld in the first place because we worked for those ones. And since March, nobody has been doing any serious work in this country.

“Our suspicion is that ministry officials in the Finance Ministry, particularly, the Office of the Accountant General, are planning to capture our members’ BVN at all cost just to migrate them to IPPIS. We will get back to the government for the directive to be made clear.

ASUU commenced an indefinite nationwide strike on March 23, 2020, following the stoppage of its members’ salaries over refusal to enrol on IPPIS.

Ngige, however, announced that President Buhari, on compassionate grounds in view of the current lockdown to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and the attendant hardship it has brought to families, approved the payment of the February and March withheld salaries to ASUU members.

The leadership of ASUU is, however, saying the request to produce BVN as a condition for accessing the salaries was a decoy to enrol the lecturers on IPPIS, which has been the major bone of contention between the Union and Government.

ASUU has agued that IPPIS could not cater to the peculiarities of university administration and opted to develop an alternative, it called University Transparency and Accountability System (UTAS).

ASUU had while declaring the indefinite strike said not even the Coronavirus pandemic ravaging countries of the including Nigeria, could stop the Union members from embarking on the indefinite strike since the “Nigerian government has elected to use hunger as a weapon of war against its academics and we are not going to sit and watch”.

Ogunyemi said: “Based on the review of reports from ASUU leadership’s engagements with Government, NEC concluded that Government had failed to satisfactorily address the outstanding issues raised in the FGN-ASUU 2019 Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) and ignored the objections of ASUU against IPPIS.

“Consequently, NEC resolved to embark on a total, comprehensive and indefinite strike action beginning Monday, March 23rd, 2020 until the issues are satisfactorily resolved.”
