asha 80: adapalm actually generates 2m monthly for the state if i am not mistaken.

2 M monthly? That is stupendously poor for a state enterprise, and equal to what an individual above average trader generates per week.

Ngodigha1: @the OP, I don't believe that South westerners are honest. In fact, they are the most dishonest zone in Nigeria.

@ the first to comment:
Na lie you talk, they are ''vely, vely onest''

Imanuelle: abuja
Delta
akwa ibom
calabar


Should I continue ?

Are you dreaming?

What jobs are in Calabar? Delta and AKS?

SWners do no love money and they make their money in decent ways.

This is big, dudes.

A N231 million fraud has been discovered in the Ogun State Ministry of Education, Science and Technology.

The fraud, which has been perpetrated for about three years now, involved some officials in the ministry in connivance with some principals of public secondary schools.

The avenue the suspects used to fraudulently drain the government purse was the payment of the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) fees by government.

The government, as part of its free education policy, pays WASSCE fees yearly for all final year students in public secondary schools.

But the suspected principals and their collaborators in the ministry dubiously inflate the number of their students to enable them collect the excess amount after the government has paid the total amount.

Based on a tip-off, the government set up a panel of inquiry to investigate the issue and recommend appropriate sanctions to prevent recurrence.

The Panel Chairman, Abdul-Fatai Opebiyi, told reporters in Abeokuta yesterday that a total of 3,571 "external candidates" were discovered to have been fraudulently added to the list of the legitimate students.

The panel chairman added that apart from the amount discovered, various sums of money were also found to have been held illegally by certain officials of the ministry.

Opebiyi, who is the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Information and Strategy, explained that the panel had recommended appropriate sanctions against culpable officials and suggested ways of preventing future occurrences.

Responding, the Head of Service, Mrs. Modupe Adekunle, congratulated the panel members for the successful completion of the assignment and expressed optimism that their recommendations would be adopted to the letter.

Dr. Ubah!
Dr of what!

otokx: ironically the eastern region is not in a fantastic state.

Show me the fantastic region.

tpacalipse: A lot of Nigerians are hot both within and without. You would be awed, if you are privy to research articles some have in peer reviewed journals in the world.

Outside Nigeria yes. But within, few if any Nigerians publish any really strong research work. They have not been enabled by the unhelpful research funding system and overall poor infrastructures.

Bleep.u.sexkills:
Dunce! Is Fashola or Tinubu President of Nigeria? If it starts from the President, then Governors and other will follow in his footsteps. Arindin!

Ode buruku. It starts from all leaders at all levels. Being a microcosm, Lagos is as good as Nigeria. The leaders of Lagos, some of them angling to lead the country, are not exempted from setting the eg.

Until fasola and tinubu do the same those ACN slaves talking about GEJ here are hypocrits.

White007: This is an old news, same thread was opened not too long ago.

Here is the link, just in case....

Old as in last April? STILL VERY FRESH THEN.

T8ksy: Whichever one fits your bigoted and ignorant mindset.

I/we couldn't care less what a nonentity like yourself, thinks of us.

Buhahahah! Una too much. Chop clean mouth like say nothing happen.

T8ksy: Don't mind them. Everybody betrays the igbos but they have never done likewise to others.

Their chronic illusion is part of the consequences of them losing the war, badly.

Your brother senator is now denying voting

From voting to apologizing (betraying) and now to denying. Mgbo, which one is the new una?

T8ksy: Verbal agreement ke? It will be interesting to know what exactly is this "verbal agreement", Awo

is alleged to have had with the ibos.

Where and When was this "verbal" agreement arrived at?

This is 2013. Awo is dead and long rotted. The main crux of this thread is the new betrayal of the North by a SW senator. Very soon Yerima will be singing of how much the guy was paid.

dayokanu: Dont you think its inherently senseless to claim you have an agreement with someone without any evidence.

Do you give your money or property to someone without any evidence?

They are all Muslims. They trusted in Allah that no one will betray each other

Prof Corruption: That settles everything. If you can't substantiate your claims with evidence, please shut up.

lol. Ogbeni you dey fex?

Prof Corruption: Lol! If you claim there is an agreement, you provide evidence that such exists. Without evidence, it could be either way-"there is an agreement and there is no agreement". Who do you trust in that instance without an evidence?

You are right. N/theless, it just means that anyone doing deals with a SWner should have a secret tape recorder and a lawyer to doubly document and legalize such deals. History keeps showing they can never be trusted not to betray a gentleman's (aka verbal) agreement

Prof Corruption: Lmao! Agreement nuanced? It's you that's turning logic upside down. What's logical and reasonable is a documented pact that can be referenced. Is Aliyu not telling GEJ that he signed a pact now? Is he saying the agreement is "nuanced" or based on words of mouth or body language?

If an agreement is not documented, anyone anywhere can claim there is one? How do you verify such claims? Do you go to court and say God is your witness to enforce such agreement?

Verbal agreements are a matter of trust.

Onlytruth: Thanks for the bolded.

He has finished himself. Complete olodo.

sleekdot: Agreements have to be in some forms, written or verbal.

Are you a half baked person? How does he provide a verbal agreement?

Prof Corruption: Why don't you lend me your Igbo lens?

You fit wear am? E go blind you oh!!! It's truth-coated.

Prof Corruption: Nigeria will never realize her potentials unless a form of Marshall Plan is implemented in the North.

The same north that you ACN goons lick their yansh abi?

Onlytruth: Sometimes agreements can be verbal or even nuanced. I don't know why an educated man like you would turn logic and communication protocol on its head just to support a windy point.

NOT ALL AGREEMENTS ARE WRITTEN, and you know it.

Don't mind him.

Prof Corruption: Of course, it has always been senseless. You read the same nonsense with caption " SW betrays the South" but where is the pact between SW and the so called South? In another instance, you read "Awo betrayed Igbo" but where is the agreement?

If you had removed your Yoruba lens, you would have seen the agreement. It is glaring to the N, S and Igbos

Prof Corruption: Why don't you publish the agreement?

Okay oh! wait for me.

You think a shophisticated Yoruba man from Ondo could have signed on to such a legislation without an agreement

Prof Corruption: What's betrayal? How can you betray someone without a pact?

Were you there when they reached their agreement?

Tolexander: this post also betrays wisdom!

No more than your decrepit tendency to live in denial

alj harem:



i hope you know Olodumare means God

Ore mi bawo ni Yes, oh! Oduduwa betrayed God and was sent packing from the ''heavens''

chidindufrank: Up till this moment, I am yet to understand the diff btw premier and governor. Explain it please.

One and the same. Just different nomenclatures. ''Gov'' was title given by the Brits as they were preparing leaving Nigeria. ''Premier'' is title of head of the indigenous govts of the different regions of Nigeria after independence.

Nightshift: Forget all the imported rice in Nigeria ( most have terrible taste) , Abakaliki rice is one of the most tasty rice in the world. Its taste can be favourably compared to Basmati rice variety.
I equally like the flat landscape of the state with its lush green fields.

Quite right. Abakaliki rice is actually now being exported.
