Civet cat. How did u go about your hunting licence?

Blue3k2:
Where did he lie. He claimed they would rather have prepaid meters to save on production and delivery cost. I thought he would rather charge by the megawatt at end of month. They even did a CAPMI scheme til regulations stopped them for sluggish delivery.

That is the lie. The CAPMI has not being stopped. It was just Ikeja that didn't go into it.

Proverbs 26:3-12
A whip for the horse, a bridle for the donkey, and a rod for the back of fools. Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest you be like him yourself. Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own eyes. Whoever sends a message by the hand of a fool cuts off his own feet and drinks violence. Like a lame man's legs, which hang useless, is a proverb in the mouth of fools. ...

you are very funny. and you seem to have a lot of spare time.

babyfaceafrica:
my friend go an sit down, there is a reason why we were taught summary in school.

That is actually from the write-up. You are part of the people the author wrote about.

CharlotteFlair:
Hahahahaha...the same Punch media ably led by Tinubu is who you are calling Coward. Tinubu is watching you in 3D.

The cowards hoping for Buhari's death knows themselves.

They know themselves. The cowards hoping to rejoice over his death, that at last he is off the scene knows themselves.

Cowards! The electoral victory they craved for in 2015 that they coudn't get, the hateful lots are having the hope that they can get it because of Buhari's illness. Quite pathetic.

Now they have turned to best lovers of Nigeria albeit ignoring the graft and maladministration that pervaded the last government. Bunch of jokers,

Buhari aint resigning. He has been given an initial 4 years mandate, and he'll complete it successfully. If you like, keep hoping and praying for his death, that will only keep him longer here according to African Elders.

Deal with it!

Na script dem De write abi?
EFCC announced they discovered money in the building, u accept it and demanded to know the owner of the building without thinking it could be a script. by adoption of Fayose and FFK, the 3 fools from the east said the building belong to Ameachi, you accepted even without any evidence to that effect. Now the EFCC has conclude its investigation and confirmed the name of the owner of the house as well as how the payment for the house was made and suddenly you realized they are acting a script just because ameachi is not mentioned.
oya kneel down,
hold your head with your two hands,
shout my father, my father. who ever is responsible for my brain malfunction, die by fire.
oya pray.

apt!

alfred007:
I taught Amechi wanted to sue? What is he waiting for.

bro just go get sense. Na script them dey write, am only disappointed that my follow youths accepts this story!!!

So now it takes weeks to discover who owns a house?

am still watching in hd

I thought (note the difference with your own) Wike was supposed to go to court with documents to claim the money for Rivers state.

What is he waiting for?? Does he think governance and his utterances as a governor is for comedy?

If EFCC releases the facts directly to the media, y'll will scream media trial, now they have patiently waited and released the fact to a competent court and you still have an issue with that. Smh

davidif:
What in goodness name do we need a CIA for? Its not like we are at war with any foreign country? The countries that have powerful intelligence agencies are the big and wealthy countries who have so much influence all over the world (USA, China, former USSR etc) or those who have enemies all over (Israel, North Korea). Last time i checked, Nigeria is cool with Cameroun, Niger, Benin and Chad so what seems to be the problem?

If its Boko Haram you are chasing, then you use millitary intelligence but why do you have to go establish another money guzzling bureaucracy like the NIA just because you want to 'feel among'?

It is quite naive for u to think we don't need to gather foreign intelligence during peace time, and when we seem not to have any enemy.

Some foreign countries are equally gathering intelligence on us and we need to counter this.

That is the kind of mindset that blew the boko haram issue out of proportion.

logica:
Different functions. NIA = CIA like DSS=USSS, where Nigeria=US. But yes, we don't need the NIA. It is simply like the Office of the NSA - nothing but an ATM through which money is siphoned by the Presidency under various fictitious endeavors like Arms Deal and Covert Operations.

Of course we need a foreign intelligence unit. The law setting up the others has given them some restrictions as regards overseas operations.

sapele914:
Of course houses in old Ikoyi are more expensive than Banana island and for your information Banana Island is a suburb of ikoyi. It's the same way some flats in Victoria Island are more expensive than a mansion in VGC. We don't need Google for the information,we live in these neighborhoods so we can talk from experience.

Thank you and God bless. Kindly help me educate that local boy that doesn't even know that Banana Island is actually part of Ikoyi.

cristianisraeli:
if you can buy a flat for $1.6 million dollars in nigeria..just flat...how much is a full mansion in banana island?nigerian government with media trial with their gullible nigerians that rush to swallow it without thinking,flats in banana island is not more than mayb 150M

So how much is a luxury flat in Ikoyi??

So you think flats in Ikoyi, one of the most expensive places since the creation of Nigeria is sold for peanuts??

You people will just be running your mouth unintelligently. If you don't have the facts of an issue, wisdom dictates you keep your mouth shut.

How much was the duplex Linda bought in Banana in 2015 I presume? It was initially quoted for 550m on a property site.

And for your information Banana Island is actually in Ikoyi. As it is obvious you don't know.

popy35:
come o, all this talk of 27k. I did mine last week for 23k in Jos. Was captured online, submitted a guarantors passport, indigene certificate, birth certificate, national ID of guarantor and two passport photographs shikena. I smell fish in Lagos offices.

Captured online how?

isaacosas01:
I actually did all my payment and processing by myself without going through any officer and using the website

I like your spirit. That is how we should get things done in this country. Those civil servants purposely make things cumbersome and complicated so that one will not have option but to come settle them. Was your application a fresh one or a renewal? Because on that NIS portal, there is no portion for renewal. So I am a little confused on whether those carrying out a renewal will also apply as a fresh application.

Secondly, how much did you pay? Was it 17,000 or 17,500? I saw 17,000 on the portal including address verification but some people are saying 17,500. I dont want to make the mistake of short-paying, so that they won't pick on that.


Sorry for my plenty questions.

Thirdly, by undergoing all the process yourself, how long did it take before you got your passport?

Tamaris1:
Col Hameed Ali. It's a shame on you and your Customs that it is cheaper to bring in cars through Benin Republic than direct to Nigeria. The import duties collected by the Benin Government is so affordable that Nigerians prefer to pay it along with the Land Border charges. Asking your citizens to pay 70% duty charge is outright wickedness!

The duty on fairly used cars is 35%, brand new cars is what is 70%.

The duties were increased to this rate in 2014 long before Col. Hamid came on board.

Icecomrade:
Cant wait for the next fight brewing.


Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Furry.

Tyson furry is a small ass taunting Joshua just because he managed to defeat Wladimir Klitschko.

Anthony Joshua will pound his fat ass like a baby

Cant wait for that fight

.

Tyson Fury with his big mouth is just looking for a short cut to some big fight that will rake in some heavy cash.

It's just sad that Anthony is taking is bait. He has been going all over Twitter hyping the non-finalised Anthony Joshua/Fury fight. Just trying to spike up the interest of a lot of people and promoters.

He should first go and fight Deontay Wilder to warm up.

The winner of Tyson Fury/Deontay Wilder bout can then be set up for an epic showdown with Anthony Joshua.

In this way, the final showdown will generate more interest and rake in millions, especially if it would be set up in US.

The handlers and promoters of AJ should ignore Fury. If he beats him now, that is how they will be belittling his victory that Fury has been out of action for a while. Same way some are trying to belittle his victory over Klitschko that he fought an old man.

okenwa:
Please let it happen faster than said.

A uniformed personnel should take over??

Some petty minds are still shouting Amaechi up and down without any evidence.

Are they being paid to spin this?

I am beginning to wonder. Because it is obvious they are doing this to divert attention from the real circumstances of that money.

tinkinjow:
Lol...so all actions and judgements delivered sinceApril 2015 stands nullified.
Nawa for naija....sometimes one can't but agree that we are being played an unending chess game in this country. Pathetic!

Which judgement did CCB deliver? I hope you know the difference between CCB and CCT?

capatainrambo:
Sekibo is there representing the interests od rivers people. That Abe is there fighting for amechi


Usless man
I wonder how he even go to be a senator sef
Mtcheww

Did u read the story at all? He never defended Amaechi, he categorically stated that they should present their facts instead of making political noise.

Let them take their evidences and file an affidavit I'm court to claim the money.

Let them also take their evidences to the Osinbajo panel.

It's very simple.

seunmsg:
That book is one heck of a revelation. Everybody seems to have told their election story in the book. In all, Patience Jonathan really dealt a heavy blow to her husband's reelection bid. In fact, Jonathan should have accused Patience of causing his defeat instead of Obama.

That woman offended almost everybody that could have supported her husband during the election and made an enemy out of them. Future office holders should learn from the failures of Jonathan to manage his wife effectively. There should always be a limit to which a spouse can influence things in the government.

......and yet, people are still blaming Buhari for confining Aisha to za oda room.

AntiWailer:
U chose to ignore reports that says Oke said he was given for special mission

U chose to ignore the part that listed owners of the building and it is a company controlled by Oke.

U chose to ignore a picture showing the Oke guy shedding tears when he was not allowed to see VP

U chose to ignore the fact that they said the woman bringing cash to the house is Oke's wife.

U chose to pretend as if Jonathan was deaf and decided not deny the claim by Oke that he gave him the money from NSA for special mission.

U chose to ignore the PDP boy that posted on twitter how Oke stole money meant for a Jonathan's re election and wanted to give FFK money to bribe EFCC ?


U chose to pretend as if you dnt know that was the reason the guy was suspended.

PDP fooled you by adding confusion to a simple event and you kept singing it. FFK and your other sources already kept quiet in shame.


Your unnecessarily hatred made it so.

He also chose to ignore that a competent court has asked anybody with claims to the money to come up with evidence. And till date, The Rivers State Govt has not filed any affidavit to claim ownership. All they are doing is just to try and bring confusion into the matter.

papaejima1:
Only the discerning and those versed in international real politik and subterfuge will understand it.
But think AFRICOM, think of the conversion of our foreign reserves from dollar to renminbi and the bloomberg + others report that once it succeeds that the west has lost control of African economy to China cos other smaller nations and BRICS will follow.
Bros, there are more than you see going on behind the scenes.

Remind me again why they wanted Gadaffi out, Saddam out, Assad out etc
Remind me why ISIS was formed by a former Gitmo detainee.
Think of why US could stay on earth and see water on the surface of the moon but couldnt see a convoy of ISIS trucks stretching from Syria to Turkey which was visible even from space but had to wait until Russia pointed it out and started bombing them!

All your points are speculative. It is not only you that is vast in international politics.

Some presidents rejected Africom before GEJ. Africom didn't start or end with him. From the antecedents of Buhari, these foreign countries with their array of intelligence network already know he cannot grant approval for Africom Base in Nigeria.

Nigeria cannot convert all its foreign reserve at a go to the renminbi. That is tantamount to economic suicide. The trade between both countries is not yet ripe for such nor has the renminbi gained such level of international acceptance. GEJ never made that a policy nor proposed that, it was the independent minded Sanusi before he was kicked out that broached converting a small percentage. When GEJ brought in Emefiele, he didnt delve deeply into that route.

Our oil income is in dollars, it is not as easy as you are saying it. Moreover the monetary policy of a country has some level of independence from those that have authority over the fiscal matters. Also, Buhari through his words and body language never proposed doing away with the Chinese. So this point is trashy.

You are not actually saying anything but dancing around speculations.

Bring out the strong points why all major foreign leaders want GEJ out. Stop hiding under the cover of "a lot is happening behind the scenes", bring out these happenings if you are conversant enough.

And let's see if most are not due to the failings of GEJ himself as a leader.

papaejima1:
Only the myopic and insane will say America and France didnt influence the election in their favour
We still remember John Kerry and the massing of French Troops on our border with cameroun.

BMC you can't question this. You know it is true, so stop spinning!!

Even if we agree with your assertions, the next question is why would they all of the same accord want GEJ out?

Emassive:
From the new of the inferno at the kano residence of the Inec chief of that state, that was when I realized the election was rigged in favor of buhari but Pdp did their rigging in Delta, Rivers and Bayelsa too.

...and Akwa-Ibom.

The senate is supposed to send proposal for the construction to the Ministry of Aviation and Works.

It is these ministries that will then award the contract and send the cost to NASS.

They are always dabbling into areas beyond their mandate.

If the people at the helms don't know their onions, they can even say they want to be the ones to award the contract as they are the ones that put it in the budget.

What they should have done is to advice the ministries concerned to send the proposal to the NASS, and they add it to the budget.

GoodBehave:
nice move

Yes, although the senate is supposed to send proposal for the construction to the Ministry of Aviation and Works.

It is these ministries that will then award the contract and send the cost to NASS.

They are always dabbling into areas beyond their mandate.

Dakad:
Wike is known for false accusations. Up till now he has not yet release the "cassette" he claimed the he had on how late former commissioner of police was planning to rig December 10th re-run.

Honestly, no serious minded person should take Wike serious when it come to accusations. However, I give it to him in terms of infrastructural development, he is trying. He has completed most of Amechi's admistration ongoing work which is very rare in Nigeria politics.

I remember his hilarious public outburst on that 'cassette'.

He was just shouting "I have this 'cassette' (with a funny deep accent) that will reveal things."

Wike, Fayose and FFK are just crying babies who dish out regular shitload of propaganda to their wailing zombies.

It really amazes me how they tend to believe, no matter how ludicrous the claims without any iota of evidence or logical connection.

Oshiomole pls! Let his haters vex the more

osazsky:
U know nothing. Sgf is by appointment check Google

SGF is by appointment, right. But a substantive appointment has not been made.

Did you properly read my post at all? Have u been properly following the news?

The most senior civil servants was asked to take over till a substantive appointment is made. It not yet yet permanent appointment.

frankzone:
Doesn't look good tbh.

The people that took over in the office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation and the Nigeria Intelligence Agency are civil servants. They are not political appointees.

They are the most senior civil servants. And the most senior was requested to take over in Acting capacity. If he bypassed the most senior now, it will lead to another uproar.
