Business › Re: Money Laundering: CBN To Sack Non-complaint Bank’s Board, Staff by agabusta: 8:16am On May 14, 2018
aaronson:
This doesn't even make sense by CBN.

How would the banks know large funds coming in are all from money laundry proceeds. I could as well tell the banks am a large scale real estate investor and still pay the excess charges so long as my money gets deposited.


So policing the banks by CBN in this regard is like a way of making them pay fine unjustly and nobody to police the CBN.

Abuse of power by CBN.
The banks does not need to do anything special, other than notify the authorities of the volume of your transactions.

A lot of banks dont report such transactions as required because they are also complicit or want to remain in the good books of the launderer so as to retain the funds in their system.
Politics › Re: Senate Invited IGP Because Of Senator Dino Melaye, Not…, Nigeria Police Insists by agabusta: 4:15am On May 13, 2018
The IG needs to swallow his pride.

He his not superior to the representatives of the people.

No matter how he tries to wiggle his way out, he is threading on dangerous grounds and may be used as a sacrificial lamb eventually.

Saraki's Senate is one of the most dictatorial and meddlesome Senate that is always dishing out summons based on their mood, but that is not an excuse to set a precedence for the demeaning of that institution.

Now that the Senate has dropped Melaye from the list of items to be discussed, he needs to honour the invitation and stop being argumentative.

Fayemi is no pushover in this election. Just mark it one side.

A lot of things will happen before and during the election. Fayemi is coming fully prepared for Fayose.

Let me end it there.
A lot of people dont like Fayemi. He should go and sit down and let Segun Oni deliver the needed victory for APC.

Are you not in Nigeria? Political appeals are fast tracked.

The Senate is setting themselves up with the appeal.

An appeal court pronouncement on the matter will make it a settled matter, that the Senate cannot suspend anybody beyond 14 days.

Politics › Re: Yar'adua Rememberance: What Reno Omokri Wrote About Goodluck Jonathan Vs PMB by agabusta: 7:30pm On May 07, 2018
beejaay:
Buhari is a very vindictive human being..he is still annoyed at the yaradua's family..Buhari was a senior to musa yaradua (yaradua brother) at the time of muritala's death, while danjuma was the most senior followed by obj...danjuma refused to be the president and asked obj to be which he rejected...naturally it was suppose to be Buhari since obj and danjuma refused the slot cos of known tribal acrimony but danjuma was not disposed to Buhari cos of his extreme type of behaviours but instead went for yaradua who was a junior to Buhari...yaradua was promoted with double or even tripple promotion to justify the seat while obj was made his prime minister while Buhari was shipped away to be a governor so as to be far from the seat of power.... The game of power in this country have been occultic and Buhari was never a saint....

If Buhari cannot put a 5 year old S Guard Mercedes in good shape despite all the large maintenance budget available then how do you guys even expect him to fix the Nation... in just less than 3 years Buhari has reduced the presidential S guards from one of the neatest and most pristine S classes in Africa to a shabby dull looking car with scratches every where ...The poor state of the presidential ride under Buhari says a lot about how everything Buhari touches must just rot .
You must always have something to say. The NASS replaced all their new cars with brand new ones, now we have a president that decided to conserve some money and still use what was handed over to him by his predecessors and you still have something negative to say about that.

Fg no get land na!
God bless you!

I don't understand why people like playing mind games. The entire land in the state is owned by the state Govt.

The land in possession of the air force is the one the governor and the a private company is greedily looking at.

It is not appropriate for such lands to be given to a private company. Another govt will come now and be giving them problems.


The state Govt should give them land and not pass the buck to the Fed govt.

The best the FG can do is to lease them the land.

I know you guys love to bash anything Nigerian but here's a picture of their own equivalent of Chief of Defense Staff (Secretary of Defense) Mad Dog Mattis. I can bet that he dresses like this when he goes for foreign diplomatic meetings as well.
The man in the pix, Joseph Dunford is the Chairman of Joint Chiefs, the equivalent of Olonisakin, who is Nigeria's chief of Defence staff.

Mad Dog Mattis is the Secretary of Defence, the equivalent of our Minister for Defence. But in the US, the Secretary of Defence has command authority over the military, which the minister of defence dont have in Nigeria.

Gen Olonisakin is wearing a ceremonial military uniform while his US counterpart is wearing his normal office wear.

It all depends on the side of the divide one falls and the importance of what is at stake. US presidents have also breached their constitution in order to hasten some actions. Evidence abound on the net on several times Obama and recently Trump violated laws.

He already told you the US gave a deadline for payment. Why not make your findings to ascertain that from the US govt?

Tucano ko tuscani ni.....we can't even boast of an outdated F16huh

Countries are buying F32 raptors and we can't even boast of F15 or F16.... simply too bad!
Defence decisions are taken strategically not by emotions gotten from movies.

Based on cost and other factors, the Tucanos are strategically more important to Nigeria at this time.

The plane is especially good for training and security, surveillance, reconnaissance and counter-insurgency missions.

The armaments the plane carries are quite impressive.

The plane will be a good economic/strategic choice to patrol the vast areas of land in the NE with very modern offensive weapons.

What do you think is the cost of blazing an F15 or F16 to fight an imaginary enemy? Are they not primarily for aerial combat? Are we planning to combat boko haram in the air or from the air? you lots will just be throwing words carelessly up and down.

Now it's going to be North v North,and the dankwambo factor;unless he sabotages

I never said he will need s/s or s/e votes to win or did I?
,or didn't you read the OP's statement,25% in 24 states.
Well, my reply was in response to your earlier comment quoted above that he wont get 25% in the SE/SS. I simply reiterated that he does not even need that for win.

As I alluded earlier, he will get the needed 25% in 24 states from the NW, NE, NC and SW states.

Buhari is more popular than Dankwambo in all parts of the North.

Why do you imagine so? He has never lost Gombe before.

Does he need 25% in the SS/SE states to be President? The answer is no. He would get the needed 25% from the NW, NE, NC and SW states.
