MONITZ: Thank you for this observation,after all,the APC having been in power for more than 2 yrs now.
The All Poverty Congress aka Association of ProgreTHIEF Criminals, APC has been in power with the worst elements of PDP for over two years. The looters of PDP's 16 years are born-to-gain saints of APC today.
sunnyb0b0: Timipre Sylva, former governor of Bayelsa state, has retrieved 48 of his property which the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) seized during the administration of Goodluck Jonathan.
According to PUNCH, some of the property are located in Wuse II and Maitama, highbrow areas of Abuja.
Back then, the commission had slammed 50 charges against the ex-governor and arraigned him before three federal high courts in Abuja.
Sylva, who contested the 2015 governorship election in Bayelsa, had accused the anti-graft agency of witch-hunt and political persecution.
The case was subsequently struck out.
A PUNCH correspondent, who visited some of the houses, observed that the inscription ‘EFCC, Keep Off’, on the gates or fences of the property, had been wiped off the buildings while some had been rented out.
The correspondent, who posed as a prospective tenant, was informed that the rent for the property ranged between N2.5m and N6m per annum.
Sixteen units of service apartments at Plot 1181 Thaba Tseka Crescent, off IBB Way in the Wuse II area of the federal capital territory (FCT), cost N6m per annum including a N1.5m service charge.
The building provides seven hours of power supply from a generator. One wing had been painted while the other was under reconstruction.
“When the EFCC sealed off this property, it was rotting away. However, it was re-opened a few months ago so we started to refurbish the property. We have repainted the property and we have started renting the apartments out,” a guard at the property was quoted to have said.
At a block of flats, which comprises nine units (six one-bedroom and three two-bedroom flats) located at 8, Sefadu Street, Wuse, Zone 2, PUNCH was told that the rent ranged from N1.5m to N3m.
“Immediately the EFCC inscriptions were erased, all the flats were taken. There is no vacant apartment now,” the security guard said.
At a property located at 8 Mistrata Street, Wuse II, Abuja, it was observed that the property was a hotel, which charged between N25,000 and N45,000 per room.
TheCable’s efforts to reach Wilson Uwujaren, EFCC’s spokesman, for the reaction of the commission did not yield the desired result as of the time this report was filed.
His telephone line was out of reach, but a text message was sent.
Paperwhite: Haven't Seen you for a very long time here bro.Guess all is well? Welcome anyway!
Ban tinz bro. The mod who banned me and Seun who empowered him forget that when one road is closed many more will open. That is to say ona kan o wo oja ni ohun mu tailor ta eko.
agbangam: U just saw real proof but u guys always choose to wail. Go out der and confirm ursef since u don't believe d Op. Der are so many roads over 200 roads left un-done by d Looting party (PDP) despite making lots of monies from oil boom.
Stop blabbing about what you don't know. APC has taken over the worst elements of PDP starting with Ebola Owu. Shine your eyes and stop spewing trash. Abeg leave trash for LAWMA o jare.
Paperwhite: Blood have been flowing since this contraption was formed so let's divide now as we're not compatible as a country.
Under presidiot bubu, the blood has been flowing even more with Fulani herdsman killing farmers on their land anyhow. How do we rid ourselves of this curse?
magoo10: Funny people everywhere You cannot stop a natural phenomenon especially when the Nigerian leaders refuse to change. If you like threaten to soak the dogs and baboons in blood,every pit dug will swallow the one who digs it.
psucc: Nigeria is united and blood is streaming or pools of blood are formed every where and all the time.
Blood flowed in 2011 because a born-to-rule Fulani man failed to win presidency and baboons and dogs were soaked in blood by his uneducated almajiris. A man who should be eating beans and gari in prison is in Aso Rock chopping free better food. Why are we such dunces in Nigeria? Who thief our brains?
You sef, why are you asking question like this. Don't you know that they have been saving their salaries to buy mega dollar mansions in Dubai? Bubu and his All Poverty Congress, APC are the worst barawos in our country's history.
shehu313: BurataiGate: Wife Of US Governor On $70k Salary Becomes Waitress To Afford $215,000 Home
June 26, 2016
The wife of a US low paid governor has taken to waitressing to help the family afford a new $215,000 home. This breaking story just as the #BurataiGate scandal unfolds in Nigeria with the Chief of Army of Nigeria, Lt. General Tukur Yusuf Buratai recently exposed to have up to a million dollars worth of property in Dubai which he claims he purchased in 2014 with savings on a salary of N700,000 ($3500) /month
One of Buratai’s two homes in Dubai was estimated at $419,800!
Nigerians have been asking how the army chief could have saved in so few years to buy homes abroad of such value. The purchases came during a period when the chief was head of army procurement during he nation’s notorious army gate scandal with billions of dollars diverted.
Fox news reports:
The wife of Maine Republican Gov. Paul LePage had kept a low profile for the first few weeks of her summer job. But then her husband told a crowd at a recent town hall that his wife took a job to “supplement” his $70,000 salary, the lowest of any U.S. governor.
The LePages live with their dog, a Jack Russell terrier mix named Veto, in the Augusta governor’s mansion and bought a $215,000 Boothbay home two years ago. The governor recently tried but failed to increase his successor’s salary to $150,000, above the nearly $135,000 average for all 50 state governors in 2015.
Nigerians Took To Twitter
Still on #BurataiGate,see pics from a procurement awareness seminar in 2014 when Buratai was DIRECTOR OF PROCUREMENT pic.twitter.com/0TcTtuHr0m
Queenlovely: When you see evil, speak out. Or you may be indirectly taking part in it. Your relative may not be the victim of these blood thirsty men at the onset but sooner or later they would be. My disdain for fetish stuff is off the chats.
Well said. Remain blessed as we all stay vigilant to say something when we see something amiss and suspicious.
Vigilance of everyone is what can reduce these devilish acts before we are all affected one way or another. If you see something say something. Report to the police, EFCC, SFU, LGA Chairman, councillor, lawmaker etc. Be on the alert always. Say something. These crazies are not ghosts or aliens. They are ordinary folks like us who get scared also.
Dutchboy: "The real enemy is the man that stole the city hall. The enemy is the Iragbiji upstart who seized the local government Secretariat at Glover street in Ikoyi. Our collective enemy is the greedy man who bought the old Nurses House, the Falomo shopping complex, the Lagos state Polytechnic property at Ojota, the stretches of acres at Lekki, the old Strabag yard at Alausa, the innumerable beach front properties long owned by the people of Lagos state, the billion naira Queen’s Drive mansion, the illegal Lekki Toll Gate, the First Nation Airline, the strings of media conglomerates, the Vault and Garden Cemetery, the vast Estates on the shores of Oniru beach , the endless choice hotels and high-rises, the shopping Mall in Ikeja and Lekki, and many great assets of our people this Iragbiji man has stolen with manic desperation. That is the real enemy we must chase back to Iraghiji.
With all these crazy and bewildering acquisitions , it is obvious that this Iragbiji upstart suffers from a disease called AFFLUENZA. It is an incurable malady which makes the pathetic sufferer to pursue blind, greedy, desperate and infectious craving for acquisition after acquisition. Here , the demented sufferer can never stop the craving for unnecessary endless accumulation of wealth. He does not know what is enough. Here wealth is glorified in place of the Almighty God. This is the dreadful disease Tinubu is suffering from.
Let us remove and dismantle the greedy contraption of Bola Tinubu from Lagos and the whole South West before the madness of the Iragbiji man corrupts the whole nation."

EastanPower: – Governor Okorocha says he will continue to help the poor to get quality education in the country
– He has received a certificate of occupancy from Bauchi state to allow him build a school in the state
– Okorocha urged all governor to do things to impress the electorate
Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo state has concluded plans to establish the Rochas Foundation College in Bauchi State as a way of providing education to the poor and less privileged.
Leadership report that the governor of Imo state said it was his mission to continue the furtherance of education in the country.
The governor made this pledge at the ceremony marking part of the celebrations for the 40th anniversary of the creation of Imo State.
The governor was issued with a certificate of occupancy to quicken the actualisation of the project by the governor of Bauchi state, Mohammed Abubakar.
Governor Abubakar said the investment in education was the best way to produce good leaders of tomorrow.
During the ceremony, members of the cabinet of the governor of Imo state gave account of their performance during their five years in service.
Okorocha reminded his colleagues in the 36 states of the federation that it is a privilege to be elected to serve the people and so they should strive to leave good legacies for the electorate.
“I am here for the glory of the job and I am poised to change the sordid history of the people and for any governor or president to succeed in office, he must think outside the box”.
The governor reiterated his resolution to move the state forward and urged Nigeria to have hope for a better tomorrow just as their leaders must have positive visions for a greater Nigeria.

Chief John Oyegun who is the chairman of the All Progressives Congress applauded Governor Okorocha for his performance and urged the people of Imo to continue to support the governor so that he can continue with his projects.
Mallam Nasir el-Rufai who was also in attendance described Okorocha “as the Nostrademus of the South East” who saw tomorrow and joined the APC for the betterment of the Igbo.
Meanwhile, Okorocha denied having anything to do with the presidential campaign posters of the APC which were seen in Abuja.
He said it was the work of mischief makers as he has no plans to contest for presidency in 2019.
sarrki: A move by some governors on the platform of the All Progressives Congress to use the platform of the National Executive Council of the party to endorse President Muhammadu Buhari for a second term failed on Tuesday.
The APC NEC is the second highest decision-making body of the party after the national convention.
Signs of what was in the offing became apparent early in the day as some governors known to be close allies of the President extended a campaign they began at an event organised by the Buhari Support Organisation in Abuja on Saturday.
In separate interviews with reporters at the APC National Secretariat, the venue of Tuesday’s NEC meeting, the Chairman of the Progressives Governors’ Forum, Owelle Rochas Okorocha; his Plateau and Kebbi counterparts, Simon Lalong and Atiku Bagudu, respectively said only Buhari had what it would take to fly the party’s flag in 2019.
The governors spoke before the commencement of the NEC meeting. Lalong said all the governors had agreed to work towards the President’s re-election in 2019.
He said, “Concerning the issue of sole ticket for Mr. President, I want to say that if Mr. President is performing, well-respected and carrying everybody along, all of us have resolved that we will work for him.”
He then asked a rhetorical question, “Do we have any other person that will challenge the President again? Whatever you call it, as far as we are concerned, we have one President and that is the ticket we will fly.
“I want to assure you that you won’t see a wrangling party after the meeting. From now onwards, it will be focused governance from Mr. President and all the governors from the states. We have all resolved to support Mr. President.”
His Kebbi State counterpart, Atiku Bagudu, who was also responding to a question on whether the governors had resolved to give the President an automatic ticket, said, “The performance of the President in the last two and half years suggests that if he wants to contest, l will certainly support him and l know that our party members feel the same about him.”
However, the governor of Nasarawa State, Tanko Al-Makura, expressed a slightly different opinion.
While responding to a similar question, he said, “For anybody to preempt the consensus opinion of the people is to say the least not fair to the vision of our party.
“I can tell you if there is anything that is clandestine, the President will not honour it. So, let’s wait and see as we embark on these meetings.
“I believe the consensus and the preponderance of opinion of all party members will be what is good for this country and we have already known the will of this country, the future of this country as we are now as a country is associated with one person, who is impeccable, who has the greatest amount of integrity that you can find in any human being around; so, your guess is as good as mine.”
Also speaking on the issue, Okorocha, who is also Imo State governor, said only a decision by President Buhari to contest the 2019 election could make him drop his personal presidential ambition.
He said, “If Mr. President wants to run for election, he will follow all the processes and if he is the person, we will all support him. In APC, there is no imposition of candidate.
“If Buhari is running, I will allow that man to continue but if he is not running, I won’t sacrifice my Presidential ambition.

WHOcarex: The Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, was in Adamawa to inspect the plot of land allocated to him by the State Government to build a secondary school for the internally displaced children.
“This is a clarion call to all Nigerians now to think about the displaced persons in our society and those who are disadvantaged from going to school.
“Most great men of the world are people from poor homes and nations that have neglected their poor ones are nations not willing to grow because there are more wisdom in the families that do not have than the families that have plenty.
“Let us not forget these poor ones because we do not know who is going to find solution to HIV, the hunger in the world or who is going to redeem Africa,” he said.
While Governor Okorocha plans to build a school for the children and the less privileged in the state, the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control, NAFDAC, has also donated drugs to the IDPs in Yola.
The agency’s representative explained that they were aware of the possibility of health challenges setting in at the camps and felt that it was important to make such precautionary move.
Both governors of Imo and Adamawa have asked other Nigerians to assist in rebuilding the state.
According to the Internally Displaced Monitoring Centre, Nigeria has the highest number of Internally Displaced Persons in Africa, totaling about 3.3 million.
Over 2.3 million have been displaced in the northeast, including over 1.4 million children.

abbeyty: what is wrong with these people and tithes anyway? nobody is stopping you paying your tithes we all have different opinion regarding tithes. pay your tithes if you want to and spare us this fkry. Most of these people prefer paying millions as tithes while their nearest neighbour go to sleep without food
Let us see what Jesus Christ said about that, shall we? Those who wish to blindly follow their false teachers are free to do so.
Matthew 25
35 For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
37 Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
39 Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

According to Waconzy, the controversial OAP is saying rubbish as tithe is paid to God and not the pastors.

Tithes
22 Be sure to set aside a tenth of all that your fields produce each year. 23 Eat the tithe of your grain, new wine and olive oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks in the presence of the Lord your God at the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name, so that you may learn to revere the Lord your God always. 24 But if that place is too distant and you have been blessed by the Lord your God and cannot carry your tithe (because the place where the Lord will choose to put his Name is so far away), 25 then exchange your tithe for silver, and take the silver with you and go to the place the Lord your God will choose. 26 Use the silver to buy whatever you like: cattle, sheep, wine or other fermented drink, or anything you wish. Then you and your household shall eat there in the presence of the Lord your God and rejoice. 27 And do not neglect the Levites living in your towns, for they have no allotment or inheritance of their own.
28 At the end of every three years, bring all the tithes of that year’s produce and store it in your towns, 29 so that the Levites (who have no allotment or inheritance of their own) and the foreigners, the fatherless and the widows who live in your towns may come and eat and be satisfied, and so that the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands.
id911: The first lie they leaked to the press in the Maina story was that they should asked the HOS. Imagine that, they wanted to spoil the woman's name and reputation even when she warned them. I'm certain she must have briefed the V. President when Maina was reinstated but the Vice President kept mum, that was why she was very angry when they wanted to put it on her head.
If Abba Kyari, Dambazzau and Malami are not sack and prosecuted because of this then I'm certain something is seriously wrong with Nigeria as a country
Are you just knowing. Everything went wrong with our country the day bubu took office.
cynthy2000: With the current free fall of the Nigerian currency (Naira) against the major foreign currencies (Dollar, Pound, Euro etc.), the Nigerian government under president Muhammadu Buhari has stopped the sales of forex to parents of students studying abroad.
Parents of Nigerian students abroad who just last year obtained dollar at the then official exchange rate of ₦166 are now forced to obtain the dollar at the current parallel/black market rate of over ₦300. What this means is that parents who last year paid about ₦1.6 million for a $10,000 tuition fee abroad will now have to pay about ₦3 million for the same $10,000 tuition fee in foreign Universities/Colleges or withdraw their wards.
In an interview with Al Jazeera, President Buhari while responding to a question on the challenges faced by parents with kids in schools abroad, who are now facing the possibility of having to pull their kids out, simply said “If the country cannot afford it, so be it.”
When probed further by Al Jazeera's Martine Dennis about his children who obviously will continue their studies abroad, the president said "Those who can afford it, can still afford it. But for those who can’t, Nigeria cannot afford to allocate foreign exchange for those who decided to train their children outside the country. We can’t just afford it.” “Well, that’s the true situation we are in.”
