That an illiterate kicked a sitting PHD holder in a democratic dispensation,to the curb,the first time ever says alot your beloved"PHD holder"

Or it says a lot about the mass illiteracy in our country with even the educated folks being ILLITERATE as well.

Otherwise how can anyone say a governor who scored 14% in the vital education sector is "excellent"

PATHETIC!!!

Abah had issues with his OND certificate and was subsequently disqualified and prosecuted. 

Buhari had issues with his WASC certificate and everyone turned a blind eye.

Double Standards. Injustice. Corruption at it's peak.

Posterity will be the judge eventually. We are watching.

One is CHRISTIAN Abah.

The other is MUHAMADU Buhari.

Saratu Umar was fired as the executive secretary of the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission (NIPC) on the suspicion that she leaked information on the granting of questionable tax waivers estimated to be worth $20 billion, TheCable can report.

Jonathan fires NIPC boss, Saratu Umar
May 18, 2015

President Goodluck Jonathan has sacked Saratu Umar, executive secretary of the Nigeria Investment Promotion Council (NIPC).

Reuben Abati, presidential spokesman, confirmed the development, saying Uju Hassan-Baba has been appointed as Umar’s replacement.

Some NIPC workers had been appealing to Jonathan to dismiss Umar over allegations of “gross incompetence, high-handedness and staff intimidation”. “We renew our call for her immediate sack as any extra day she spends in the NIPC undermines the activities of the Commission and reverses the gains of Government in its bid to diversify the economy using private capital,” a recent petition signed by Ahmad Ghondi, chairman of NIPC union, read.

The union even staged a protest that led to the paralysis of activities at the headquarters of the agency in Abuja on April 22. During the protest, its members carried placards with inscriptions such as: ‘NIPC without management/Council’, ‘Saratu Umar must go today’, ‘Self-styled one-man management’, ‘No imprest to zonal office for eight months’.

OBJ and RCCG of Adeboye were worse culprits on this =>

ADEBOYE, REDEEM CHURCH LEADER IN N20 BILLION IMPORT WAIVER SCANDAL
05 Nov. 2007


The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye has been linked to a scandalous import duty waiver said to have cost Nigeria a whooping N20 Billion in revenue loss between 2006 and 2007.

A Fiscal Commission source in Abuja preferring anonymity told Pointblanknews.com during the week that pastor Adeboye, tapping into his well-known ties with former President Olusegun Obasanjo benefited from the shady import duty waiver in which Alhaji Aliko Dangote, Chief Mike Adenuga, Alhaji Saminu Turaki, Mr. Donald Duke and others were prime beneficiaries.

According to the impeccable source, the duty waiver granted Adeboye was said to have been used “dishonestly” by the church to import luxury Sport Utility Van, SUV (usually called Jeep in Nigeria), building materials and Digital Recording equipment some of which were said to belong to top members of the church both within Nigeria and abroad. In other words, the source surmised that Adeboye used his high level connections to “aid and abate” his church members to defraud the nation by not paying the requisite importation fees.

The source said that many of the RCCG’s faithful in Nigeria and abroad had celebrated the “unlawful act” as a “testimony to the goodness of the lord.” It was said that a Pastor Ghandi of the Jesus House, RCCG in Washington DC where the late first lady Mrs. Stella Obasanjo used to worship whenever she was in the United State, was a facilitator of the deal.

Many of the luxury cars that were said to have been imported through the deal were not meant for private use. They were said to have been sold at several car dealerships across the country. The source explained to pointblanknews.com that even if the items were not traded, it was unheard of that “people would import duty-free luxury items into any country.”

The official did not rule out the possibility of a thorough investigation of the deal which he said could make Adeboye to pay and possibly face charges.

A document made available to pointblanknews.com indicated that in 2006, RCCG got an import waiver of N9,831,109,309.00 through certificate no.,BO/REV/12235/S.2/T.133 to import construction materials; generators and vehicles. The value of the imports was N49,155,546,846.00.

In 2007, another import waiver was granted. This time through a certificate number BO/R10260/V111/161, RCCG was granted rights to import building/construction materials with value put at N48,988,454,876.00 with a total waiver of N9,757,690.975.20. The two waivers total N19,588,800,284,20, while the bulk transactions amount to N98,144,347,130.20.

Also 300 luxury cars with value put at $6,923,000, 100 Jeeps (SUV) valued at $8,000,000, Video Equipment valued at $12,000,000.00, were all part of the shady import deals.

It would be recalled that the comptroller General of Nigerian Customs Services, Mr. Jacob Gyang Buba had been investigated by the independent Corrupt Practices Commission, ICPC in connection with an annual loss of N50 Billion in respect of the importation tariff waiver introduced by the Government of President Olusegun Obasanjo.

The spiritual depth of some practices of the RCCG has been subject of concern amongst growing conservative Christian worshippers. Adeboye is often criticized for being interested in quantity and not quality. He is said to have broken his church to model parishes were prosperity theology is often preached. The other class of followership is usually called Redeemed Classical. They are more mortified and often completely scriptural. Apart from Adeboye’s too cozy with the high and mighty elite, he was said to have given tacit blessing to ex-president Obasanjo’s third-term Presidential dream that was truncated with sudden humiliation.

what do we call the dollars shared in southwest?,omo u go fear dollar now.

Stop spreading RUMOURS!

Coolcash1:
Hate or like him...Fashola ROCKS!!!

I JUST LOVE THIS MAN CALLED CLASS CAPTAIN OF ALL GOVERNORS IN NIGERIA...

HE IS AN EPITOME OF TRUE LEADERSHIP; INTELLIGENT, SMART, ELOQUENT, AFFABLE, ADROIT, BRILLIANT, ETC

Abeg na which of the adjectives you listed above is equuvalent to FAILURE

Abi how do you describe someone who scores 14%?

chibas:
Tomorrow they will tell us that actually some amount was missing but is not up to 5billion,as any one ever wonder where PDP got money from for their campaign which was characterized by dollarization.

Dollarisation was by APC led by Donatus General [DG] Amaechi.

scribble:
Dollarization Of The APC Primaries: How Amaehi Vanquished Atiku #saibuhari

The blogosphere was inundated with reports of the excessive sharing of dollars at the All Progressives Congress which took place during the latter part of last week.

One APC supporter and Special Adviser to Osun Governor on Environment, BolaIlori had blown the scandal open after he saw the beginning stages of the dollarization in action.

He took to his Facebook page and scribbled, “Crazy things are happening here!!! Some of these cannot represent the change Nigeria is yearning for. Excessive dollarization by one of the aspirants to is to say the least obscene. I have been involved in political process for decades now, I have never witnessed this volume of raw dollarization of party primaries. I only read about this kind of things in PDP primaries. A question been asked by conscientious delegates is that whoever can be giving out between $2000 to $5000 to…delegates certainly does not represent the kind of change Nigerians want…those who contributed to the pauperization of Nigeria now revel in dollarization… majority of Ondo delegates are still standing with Buhari but have been reduced from 85% to 70% within 24 hours…the remaining has gone with dollars ooo.!!!!!”

One has to wonder how Buhari was able to win the primaries in this era of stomach infrastructure where dollars are like the Biblical manna that God sent down from heaven to nourish the Israelites as they made their way to the promised land.

Sources close to the APC with knowledge of the way the Primaries unfolded have revealed that it was Rivers State Governor, Amaechi who flew back to Rivers State and returned to Lagos on Thursday morning with enough dollars to make Benjamin Franklin blush.

It has been revealed that Atiku offered the delegates $5000 each, but Amaechi doubled it to $10000 a pop. Thus turning the tables in favour of General Buhari.

Since his adventure into the APC, Amaechi has gone out of his way to prove himself a party loyalist, always the first to shoki or azonto at the many events the APC holds, which he himself is usually the chief sponsor.

According to party insiders, Amaechi has overtaken Tinubu as the major financier of the party. One does not need to wonder why he is always at President Jonathan’s throat over misappropriated oil wells or other such business. Anything that diminishes from the State’s coffers will have a ripple effect on his funding budget for the APC.

The statement added that in the interest of transparency and accountability, the ministry of finance would, in a couple of days, publish the details of the ECA for the last four years.

The EARLIER Iweala publishes the ECA details since 2010, the better.

Thanks NOI for putting greater TRANSPARENCY!!!

He must not be the one to initiate a conversation.. And since the breakup was "mutual" chatting him up or even calling him shouldn't be a problem or a bad idea. You will feel better when you do.

Beautiful, mature response just like your signature

if as a lady, you are not financially independent. marriage should not be your piority

I won't buy that!

Public schools I will rate Fash Darling 85%.

No one is asking you to buy anything. Just asking you to do a simple arithmetic-

Going back and forth with a troll gains nothing. You are just helping that troll to derail the thread.

Misitah photographer, you will do well to post the pinshures of the aloku Toronto locomotives of $1 billion dollar World Bank loan in Lagos to gain some credibility back for your smooth criminal oga!!!

Na you loose pass as you dey praise a common THEIF who has deprived you & other Lagosians the BASICS of modern society-

Instead of you to respond to the $1 billion Toronto aloku SCAM and be concerned of the NEGLECT of these basic matters you are shouting like a deranged individual in the market place

Pity is the only thing I have for you

Those who UNDERSTAND will recognise how much better it is to fight corruption SYSTEMATICALLY than the bogus paparazzi of NO lasting effect by the useless General Bully-Aminu of Ota!

Kudos NOI.

amechi led group sued Fg and okonjo, forcing them to share it and they did!!

Thank you for the FREE education you are giving the many UNINFORMED pretenders we have as fellow citizens who are easily carried away by HALF truths of propaganda.

For those who may wish to know more -

FG, States, LGs Share N568.4 Billion for Oct
15 NOVEMBER 2013

Also, $1billion was proposed for distribution to complement shortfall in expected revenue." The $1billion is a compromise by the FG over its words in September not to augment shortfalls anymore.

Responding to the presentation, the chairman of the States Commissioners of Finance and Ebonyi State Commissioner of Finance, Mr Timothy Odaah, lamented that the statutory allocation was getting smaller and smaller. "It appears this is the worst in terms of returns. This is the least in allocations as far as this year is concerned. We are mourning the dearth of funds and this is a wakeup call for states and local governments to buoy up their internally generated revenue."

While appreciating the "magnanimity" of President Goodluck Jonathan to approve the $1billion from the excess crude account and to be shared among the federal, state and local governments, Odaah expressed disappointment with the returns made by the NNPC.

He said that [size=14pt]the states had requested for $2bn[/size] to complement for the shortfall in revenue but got only $1billion. In September, Odaah and fellow commissioners had walked out of the Accountant General of the Federation (AGF) when the federal government said that the framework of the 2013 budget was no longer realistic and it won't augment shortfall in revenue. Odaah raised issues with the statutory allocations of previous months.

And I am angry with the PDP because they refuse to get us off oil...and leave us vulnerable to the effects of Dutch disease (google Dutch disease).

Did you say PDP

Why are you so fixated about PDP as if you are an UNIFORMED Nigerian?

I guess no one wants to know who incurred the N3 trillion before Jonathan and more importantly WHAT they achieved with the debt

No wonder we have Daura President Buhari to rule over us as most of us are just too DULL!!!

Anyway when you see a thread comparing 8 years of Fashola to 4 years of Jakande or 6 years of Awo, then mention me ok

Since when did Akpabio become a yoruba man talk less of governor, premier or leader.

Really

If there is nothing about making salaries of real workers COMPARATIVE to those of political appointees, all the dogo turanchi of we shall & we will is Dead on Arrival - DoA!!!

Any country where minimum wage is equivalent to N18,000 while SINators get N27 million for doing nothing cannot reduce corruption significantly!

Beremx:
shut up you hungry monetary protection seeker. I find it disgusting that you even responded to me.

PDP has admitted their failures in all ramifications and you're talking about exclusive admittance. Nonsense!!
