Shoro ni yen? Sack them if they are not ready to carry out your mandate. We have a lot of soldiers waiting to quell this insurgency once and for all.

We are now in a global world.
I have been using L since September last year.
Dunno.what u are talking about

What you've been using doesn't put food on my table. I have also been using L for the past 9 months. My diatribe was as a result of the majority of Android users still stuck on KitKat.

Some guys are still waiting for Lollipop and you talking Mango.

Slow down bro

QuotaSystem:
Freedom of Information. Ask and it shall be revealed. Period.

The completed forms were submitted on Thursday. Hopefully, the details will soon be published. PMB is way ahead of his critics.

No need to stop anybody. When PMB needs them,he will know how to repatriate them with ease.

Please extend my regards to your mentor.

I love China's anti-corruption stance.

I like your style. You now have a youth organization and pasted your telephone numbers on the sculpture for correspondence.

I suggest you engrave the phone numbers on that statue before the rain washes it off along with your expectation.

I am a very good at it and I will be a good time to time and money to pay for the first time in the morning.

If he's as tough as the late Idiagbon,then he has my support

T4kbaba:

type 160000000 on cell A2, type = 1.021*A2 on cell B2 then press enter key.Having done that, there is what we call autofill, put your cursor on the right bottom of cell B2 when it change to tiny + sign , then drag it to up to year 2015. Goodluck and happy new Nigeria.

Thanks a lot

Quick question

I want to estimate the population of a state as at 2015 using figures from the 2006 census at a growth rate of 2.1%.

What would Mr Excel do?

IBB has always been a quiet man ever since he retired to his Minna home. You only hear about him when he receives visitors. His health has been failing him of recent.

Haters no reach nah

Happy Birthday boss.....

I refer everyone to Charles Soludo's "Ngozi Okonjo Iweala and the missing trillions".

I hereby challenge your attempt to blame others for not saving for the rainy day. It is not a virtue when you are quick to appropriate all the credit when things are going well, but shift the blame when they go wrong. You blame the state governors— who, according to you, have taken the Federal Government to the Supreme Court—not that a Supreme Court judgment forced your hands. For your information, the governors have never agreed to savings and always threatened court action even under Obasanjo. Why did we save under Obasanjo but not under Jonathan? Two keywords explain it: leadership and integrity.

Governor Amaechi said the governors insisted on sharing the funds because they found out that you were illegally fiddling with the savings. So, as Nigerians still wonder, if billions of dollars are now ‘missing’ under your nose, why should governors trust you to keep their money? Do the states that have taken the federal government to the Supreme Court and refused to save also include the PDP governors—who are in the majority? If so, then it is fatal: even governors of your own party, PDP, do not trust you to keep their money!

Furthermore, did the governors also stop the Federal Government from saving part of its share? If you ran a surplus budget at the Federal level, you would have had credibility to blame others or to say they did not listen to your advice. The key point is that since you were running huge deficits yourself, it was also in your own interest to share the ECA. You did not show leadership or credibility, full stop!

This is just the beginning of the revelation of lies and deceit by the GEJ administration on management of finances. Another governor is pointing to the SuRE-P project as a clear fraud. The governors should also share the blame for not voicing out their observations until now.

I smell burnt lies. I wish Soludo had published all his three letters to tear this woman apart.

How many trillions (in actual fact) have been ‘lost’ through customs duty waivers over the last four years? As coordinator of the economy, can you tell Nigerians why the price of automotive gas oil (AGO), popularly called diesel, has still not come down despite the crash in global crude oil prices, and how much is being appropriated by friends in the process? Be honest: do you really know (as coordinator and minister of finance) how many trillions of Naira, self- financing government agencies earn and spend? I have a long list but let me wait for now. I do not want to talk about other ‘black pots’ that impinge on national security.

My estimate, Madam, is that probably more than N30 trillion has either been stolen or lost or unaccounted for or simply mismanaged under your watchful eyes in the past four years. Since you claim to be in charge, Nigerians are right to ask you to account. Think about what this amount could mean for the 112 million poor Nigerians or for our schools, hospitals, roads, etc. Soon, you will start asking the citizens to pay this or that tax, while some faceless “thieves” were pocketing over $40 million per day from oil alone.

You alluded to debt relief in your response and tried to take credit. Well, your CV is honest enough to admit that your two achievements in office as Finance minister under Obasanjo were that “you led the Nigerian team that struck a deal with the Paris Club” and that you “introduced the practice of publishing each state’s monthly financial allocation in the newspapers”. You are right about the two achievements.

Let me put on record that Nigeria would have secured debt relief under anyone as Minister of Finance. President Obasanjo secured debt relief for Nigeria. Much of his first term was used to get Nigeria back into the international community and to campaign for debt relief. Before you were sworn in as Minister of Finance, President Bush visited Nigeria and both of us accompanied President Obasanjo during the meeting. There, Mr. Bush promised to support Nigeria with debt relief and asked our president to ensure that he met the conditions of the Paris Club. Obasanjo mobilized the global political support and coordinated all of us to ensure that the government met the check-list of ‘conditionalities’ as required. I spent five weeks in the hotel with my team (as coordinator/chairman for drafting the National Economic Empowerment and Development Strategy, NEEDS).

Some of the reform targets in NEEDS became the ‘conditionalities’ Nigeria was required to fulfil to merit debt relief. You and I signed the various MoU with the IMF on behalf of Nigeria (the policy support instrument). We had a great team at work and each member of the economic team had specific aspects of the conditionalities to deliver: Bode Agusto was in-charge of the budget; Oby Ezekwesili held sway at Bureau of Public Procurement and later Minister of Solid Mineral, and Education (but specifically tasked with delivering on EITI and procurement reforms); Nuhu Ribadu was at the EFCC fighting corruption; I was at the Central Bank delivering on monetary policy and banking reforms; Steve Oronsaye worked hard to delist Nigeria from the FATF; Nenadi Usman was in-charge of the parastatals; El-Rufai held forth at FCT and in charge of public sector reforms; privatization programme went on, etc.

Did you know that the IMF wrote President Obasanjo threatening that there would be no debt relief if the CBN did not meet some monetary targets, and do you know the magic we performed to meet them? Can you tell Nigerians which of the ‘conditionalities’ that you personally implemented? With the groundswell of political support and Nigeria meeting all the ‘conditionalities’, debt relief was assured.

By the way, can you tell Nigerians why you were eased out as Finance Minister and you cried like a baby begging OBJ to still allow you remain in the Economic Management team—- barely few weeks after the debt relief? Why were you eventually also removed from the economic management team if you were so important? Ironically, President Jonathan has recycled you, with a bigger title and greater responsibilities. But the difference is that the team that did the actual work is no longer there, and the world has seen that the king is naked.

You are brilliant Madam, but you need serious help. Having spent all your life in the World Bank bureaucracy largely in administration/operations, no one will blame you if your economics has become a bit rusty. There are firebrand Nigerians all over the world to draft to service. It is certainly embarrassing to Nigeria for you to be bothering World Bank economists to help you with most basic economic analysis.

"God forgives, I don't!!"

Yet,these states receive monthly allocations and security votes.

A lot of work needs to be done.

The Iyasele of Esanland would be regarded as one of the greatest politician to come from Edo state, more influential than the revered Anthony Enahoro.
