lorRhyMeZ: Yeah,at least the retired soldiers getting the multiple pensions earned theirs...don't blame them mehn...blame the system..
And the NNPC workers as well as the civil servants did not earn theirs huh
BTW, who created the system- Are these OVERFED retired Generals not involved as former Heads of State?

Does your post seem REASONABLE and rational even to yourself?
Is that how they do it in those oyinbo places where those who steal our money hide it and where those cannot steal yet also run in search of second hand jobs and live as socio-economic EXILES while parading themselves as diasporans to their "less fortunate" fellow compatriots who are still in Nigeria.

Quite sad that OLD, retired people who expectedly worked hard to create value and bake the national cake our leaders ahre will be ABANDONED and their pensions hijacked by THIEVES such as this old man here:

Eldavido1: N52billion monthly pension payments unaccounted for angry
Collects N1.03billion kickbacks from Pensions Union
Cornered N15.6billion meant for settlement of Death Benefits
N54billion transferred from 58 illegal accounts can’t be traced
Pocketed N113million pension fund, diverted to a contingency account that turned out to be a State House account.

A damning report by the office of Nigeria’s Auditor General has indicted a former Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, Stephen Oronsaye, over an alleged N123billion fraud perpetrated during his tenure, between 2009 and 2010, PREMIUM TIMES can authoritatively report today.
The 169-page report, entitled “Special Audit of the Accounts of the Civil Pensions”, found Mr. Oronsaye guilty of allegedly presiding over the looting of the nation’s resources during his tenure.

The audit by the Auditor General arose from the work of a Special Audit Team constituted by the Federal Government in May 2011 to conduct a comprehensive examination of the accounts of the Civilian Pension Department domiciled in the Office of the Head of Civil Service of the Federation. The audit, which covered the period 2005 to 2010, uncovered monumental financial irregularities, opaque transactions, irregular
and abnormal running costs, and outright stealing and kick-backs said to have reached its zenith during the 18 months that Mr. Oronsaye served as Head of Service.

The Auditor General’s office, insiders say, completed its assignment and submitted its report to government in 2012. But no action has been taken to bring all those indicted to book. This newspaper understands that there is a high-level lobby at the highest reach of our government to suppress the findings and allow those found culpable to enjoy their loot. While allegations of massive corruption hangs around his neck, Mr.
Oronsaye remains very close to President Goodluck Jonathan, with unhindered access to the presidential villa. He also continues to occupy some of the most important positions in the country. He is, for over 10 years now, chairman of the Presidential Committee on Financial Action Task Force [FATF] and is board member of both the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation [NNPC] and the Central Bank of Nigeria [CBN], the two public organisations widely considered the most lucrative in the country.

Looting Galore

Although top government officials are working hard to suppress the damning report, PREMIUM TIMES has now scooped its content for you. And it was simply shocking and mind-boggling. The report found that the pension payroll was never subjected to internal audit between June 2009 and December 2010; and that the over N52billion paid as monthly pension under Mr. Oronsaye’s reign remained largely unaccounted for. The payments, auditors say, were not presented for internal and federal audits for prepayment audit as required by Nigerian financial regulation.
The examination also documented evidence of payment for goods running into hundreds of millions of naira that were not supplied. For instance, about N700million was paid to 223 different contractors for store items. However, no payment vouchers were available for inspection as the investigators carried out their assignments. The payments were also not recorded in the cashbook, leading auditors to conclude that since store receipt vouchers could not be traced, the items were most probably never supplied.

Equally tainted with financial irregularities, the report says, was pension remittance to states and industrial unions during Mr. Oronsaye’s reign. A serious infraction was detected in the payment of N2.08billion check-off dues to the Nigerian Union of Pensioners in 2009 and 2010. When auditors computed and analyzed the Figures in accordance with the mandatory one per cent deducted from statutory pension allocations, they found that N1.03bn was overpaid. The report alleged the amount was passed to Mr. Oronsaye as kickbacks. The auditors also expressed shock at the absence of a single receipt from any state government acknowledging the payments purportedly made to them as five per cent federal government contribution and reimbursements. Consequently, there was no single shred of evidence to indicate that these remittances were
actually made, the report said.

Politics › Cholera Epidemic In Nigeria by anonimi(op): 8:26am On Sep 15, 2014
In this interview with MOTUNRAYO JOEL, the National Chairman, Association of Public Health Physicians of Nigeria, Dr. Tanimola Akande, talks about cholera and the current outbreak affecting some parts of the country

What are the symptoms of cholera?

Cholera is a form of gastroenteritis caused by Vibrio Cholera bacteria. The patients with cholera present with profuse passing of watery faeces and vomiting which may be accompanied with fever. Such patients lose body fluids rapidly and become dehydrated and therefore have body weakness. The first case may not be recognised as cholera since some other gastroenteritis can present that way but as soon as many more cases are recorded within a short time, a high suspicion of cholera should be made.

What leads to cholera transmission?

Cholera is transmitted through the faeco-oral route. That means the bacteria are shed in the patient’s faeces and it gets into another person by mouth from water or food that is contaminated with the bacteria.

Is Nigeria susceptible to a cholera epidemic and why?

Nigeria is highly susceptible to cholera epidemics and there have been several ones in the past in the country. Currently there are epidemics of cholera in various parts of the country. This is because of poor basic hygiene and sanitation. Only about three-quarter of households living in urban areas have access to improved source of drinking water. The situation is worse in rural areas where less than half of the households have access to improved source of drinking water. In some of these communities people have their drinking water from polluted streams or rivers. In the same vein only about 40 per cent of the urban population have non-shared improved toilet or latrines and it is as low as about 30 per cent in rural areas. Surveys show that about three in 10 households in Nigeria use an improved toilet facility.

A situation where people still pass stool in the open makes the population vulnerable to epidemics of cholera. Such faeces are often washed by rain into streams and rivers that serve as drinking water for some people. In addition a high proportion visit toilets and will not wash their hands, this practice unfortunately is not uncommon among food handlers.

More states in Nigeria have recorded cholera outbreak, why is this happening?

The reason for the spread of cases of cholera in more states is not farfetched in view of the sanitary and water supply situation described earlier. Government and households are not doing enough to improve water supply and provide improved sanitary facilities. Whilst some people may have improved sanitary facilities in their homes, this may not be the case in their places of work particularly those in the informal sector. In most cities and towns public toilet facilities are not either not available or grossly inadequate. Some brands of packaged water (often called pure water) are also sources of cholera spread because of the poor sanitary condition of the factories where they were produced.

Why hasn’t Nigeria been able to curb cholera outbreak?

Nigeria has not been able to curb this epidemic because we have not been able provide all citizens with safe drinking water and improved sanitary facilities both in the homes and public places. People are probably also not well informed about cholera and the preventive measures they can put in place to curb it. Imagine that some people managed to build houses with about four – six rooms (the face-me-I-face-you type) but they find it difficult to go the extra mile to provide a toilet or latrine. It is a shame to find houses in cities and towns without toilets. You want to therefore ask what those in charge of approving plans or inspecting houses are doing if this simple measure cannot be enforced. It was not until recently when my area of residence got crowded with houses, that the dwellers stopped passing faeces all around the open spaces. Now we are luckier they have to move a little further. The houseflies that hover around such faeces are not discriminatory; they fly anywhere and land on anyone’s exposed food.

Does boiling of water prevent cholera?

The way cholera spreads is through contaminated food and water but particularly water. Boiling water, of course, is quite helpful in preventing cholera. Some other measures of disinfecting water through urban water supply chlorination and domestic water chlorination are also helpful.

What is the recommended treatment in patients who have developed cholera?

Patients who have developed cholera need to be quickly rehydrated since they would have lost some fluid. The rehydration (replacement of the lost fluid) could be though oral salt and sugar solution or the packaged oral rehydration salt (ORS). In severe cases the rehydration will be though intravenous fluid (drips). In addition the patients are given antibiotics to take care of the cholera bacteria.

Could a cholera outbreak occur in developed countries?

Cholera outbreak is not impossible in developed countries, but will be quite unlikely. Some people can have cholera and may not show symptoms. If such people travel to such developed countries and practised poor sanitary hygiene, they may infect a few people. This situation, even though it affects a few people, will still be considered an outbreak. It is unlikely to affect many people because of the good water supply, sanitary facilities and personal hygiene of citizens of developed countries.

ceo4eva: Fashola calls for inquiry
The church has declined comments on the number of persons in the building when it collapsed. Besides, it insists that nobody died in the incident. shocked shocked
Lagos State Governor Babatunde Fashola was at the scene yesterday. He called for an inquiry.
Government officials have said there was no approval for the erection of additional floors.
Commissioner for Physical Planning Olutoyin Ayinde, who was on Fashola’s entourage, said the church’s engineers were yet to present their permit to make such modifications.
Ayinde said: “Our meeting with the prophet was a closed-door meeting but it surrounds the collapsed building. It is a sad situation; lives have been lost and many others have been rescued.
“We use this opportunity to express our sympathy to the affected people.
“We have no proof that the church had permit to add to the existing structure. We have asked the engineering team to meet us and for about two hours now, no member of the team has come.
“We also have questions for them. Even if the building does not have approval, it ought to be built professionally. We have asked for their team and we hope in the course of the week, they would get to us.
“It is necessary to take the final inventory before we can say the number of people affected. Right now, we do not know how many people are involved. When a final inventory has been taken, the ministry of special duties will take a decision as regards relieve,” he added.
On whether the ýgovernment plans to seal the premises, Ayinde said: “There are no plans for that yet until investigation as to the cause of the collapse has been concluded.
“I have said I have no proof of a permit. Maybe they have one and are yet to show us. We will give them the opportunity to defend themselves and action can only be taken after investigation has been concluded.”
But the General Manager, Lagos State Building Control Agency, Mrs. Abimbola Animashaun, affirmed that the church had no approval.
She said: “We have investigated and found that they had no approval for the additional structures. Even the main church, which they have added about three floors on, was sealed two days ago, but it is now open.

”You cannot have an existing building and start putting up more buildings on it. Before you can do anything like that, you must confirm that the structure is still stable and can stand additional buildings.”
The Nation gathered that the collapsed building, which was a three-storey that had another three added to it, had been vibrating for sometime before it collapsed

Christianity Etc › Re: How Seed Sowing Is Tearing Marriages Apart In Christ Embassy by anonimi: 5:04pm On Sep 14, 2014
saasala: I joined Christ Embassy on the 31st/1st night of 2006/2007. It was my first time of being to the church after much persuation from my sister. I fell in love with the church instantly and decided to make Pastor Chris my man of God and spiritual father after hearing the sermon that day. It was the sweetest sermon I have heard in years.

Christ Embassy is a great church with men and women especially young people boiling with the word God. Christ Embassy thought me to know my rights in Christ and defeated all manner of fear whatsoever. After about a year of joining I started speaking in other toungues and began functioning sufficiently in the cell.


I stopped going to church (not just Christ embassy) more than a year ago because:

(1) The church doesn't tell people what God wants them to hear but what they want them to hear: Because C.E doesnt want to lose its members, the pastors dont preach against adultery and fornication. They dont preach against the members exposing their body because they dont want to lose them. They tell you to sow seeds to be blessed of God. You are asked to bring all the money you have earned in the first month of every year as first fruits, depriving yourself and spouse of necessary amenities.

(2) Men are coaxed into sowing their entire earnings as seed: My sister and her hubby attend the church and because of the seeds the man has to sow, he couldnt give his wife enough money to start her business making them argue over and over and over again, at a time almost tearing their marriage apart.
I know of a sister whose whose husband work in a reputable company, they almost got divorced (dont know about now) because the man would sow everything he has to the church, not giving the wife enough money to take care of her self and the children.

(3) Christ Embassy dont teach you how to give to your fellow humans, they only teach you how to give to the church alone. If you ask your fellow member to borrow you say 100k for business, they wouldnt do it, the next sunday you see the same person sowing 200k.

You have to sow into these arms: Rhapsody Of Realities (owned by Pastor chris and Anita), LoveWorld Plus (owned by pastor Chris), LoveWorld Media (owned by Pastor chris), Campus Ministry, Stage Set, Inner city mission, Healing school etc etc

(4) Christ embassy organizes a particular event every year end "The Love World Award Night" Where the biggest givers in the ministry are being giving awards for their givings. Are we not supposed to be rewarded by God and not men? People started giving, not because they wanted to please God but because they want to recieve award from pastor Chris. They later brought the award night down to every satelite church while still holding on to the big one, thereby making members deprive their families of necessary things.

I became a choir cordinator in early 2013 after my gifts as a guitarist and drummer was discovered by the pastor of the new satellite church I joined when I relocated to another town. I left the church about 7 months after. During my time as the choir coordinator, one of the choir members, a young man of say 23 years wanted to learn video editing from me. I told him to get a laptop first. He told the pastor about it. The pastor told him he has a laptop than is strong enough to edit videos. The pastor is well to do, he has a good job drives a clean car and his kids and wife look like they are from above. The pastor told the brother to pay for the laptop knowing fully well the young man is jobless, he later started disturbing the guy with phone calls asking him to send the money into his account. That brother, just like me has stopped going to church because of this, my own reason for quitting is different though. Imagine!

The one who gives is praised and worshiped while those who dont are looked down upon. Bottom line is that, you are forced to give, I mean to give all your dime and neglect the needs to the extent of neglecting the needs of your wife. They force you to pledge and pay up to the last dime. I left the church owing thousands of niara.
Many thanks for your TESTIMONY.
I am sure that the grace of God is still with you and have achieved even GREATER milestones in the past one year after leaving the "church".

An effectively efficent Assistant/Deputy does not need to be seen & heard by the public as long as his immediate boss appreciates his inputs on ASSIGNED tasks.
How much managerial/leadership experience do you have BTW (By The Way) huh

MisterLongman: For those claiming that sambo is too dull. When jonathan was Yaradua's VP, was he any better than sambo. What they forgot is that you must never outshine your boss, no matter what. Atiku tried it, we all know the end of his story.
Thanks.
It seems many KIDS here think that the affairs of government and political parties are conducted with plenty noise aka PROPAGANDA instead of the more effective, quiet, discreet pulling of necessary strings for optimal results. Those who wish to continue following the "noise of the market" are free to do so.

Sambo has been a key aspect of the Jonathan/Sambo federal administration. Those who wish to see a Tinubu style SUPREMO executive, rather than a democracy, may be disappointed.

As a memory refresh, Alhaji Bola Ahmed Tinubu went through at least TWO Deputy governors, including the lady who fed him during their first campaign and the ex-banker who resigned but was still THEREAFTER impeached by his (Tinubu) LASHA.

How many Owerri township roads are not deplorable?
How many state roads (linking LGAs) under the responsibility of Okorocha are not deplorable?
