So my question is: how do they cover cost for the adverts since using their service is free of charge?
I THANK WHOEVER MOVED THIS TO FRONT PAGE.ITS A SIGN THAT I'M FAVOURED IN THIS YEAR AND ALL THE PLACES I SUBMITTED MY CV WILL SOON CALL ME FOR EMPLOYMENT You were doing very ok until the red portion. What did the Bible say about the generation seeking signs & wonders Faith in your effort and God's ability to crown it with success is good but not when it is tied to signs & omens- that is simply superstition, even though subtle. |

jackpot: The problem I have with Ngige is that he is riding on the voter's intelligence. Beware of anybody coming with the "Saviour's Mentality".
Another of his undoing is the wicked lies him and his campaign groups spew on social medias (e.g. Facebook). None of those his Onitsha Pure-Water pelting APGA campaign incidence were true. I'm a witness. You need not be surprised. Is he not with the fraudsters and scammers assembled in the Association of Conmen in Nigeria, ACN that has transformed into Arewa People's Congress, APC  LIES and PROPAGANDA laced with DISTORTIONS is their stock in trade! So tey dem carry Alhaji LIE Mohammed as their spokesman  Why would a man who has consistently contested and failed the Governorship's Election for 11years still remain an active contestant. What is he really looking for in the Anambra Government House? Maybe na the remnant of the jazz wey im do for Okija shrine with his former godfather, Ubah wey never clear for im head still. Nigeria: Ngige Swore to an Oath At Okija Shrine BY TONY ORILADE, 23 AUGUST 2004
We read that some people took the governor to the shrine to swear allegiance. What do you know about this?
Few days to the governor's election, I was coming back from a campaign tour. I stopped over at Chief Uba's house at Awka. There, I met Abama, Dr. Ngige, Okey Udeh and Chief Uba engaged in discussion. They were discussing the apparent lack of confidence in the candidature of Dr. Ngige due to betrayal of trust and embezzlement of campaign funds he allegedly collected from governors of Rivers and Delta states. He was being asked to step down and he was crying profusely and pleading with everybody inside there to please forgive him. He pleaded that I should intervene on his behalf. Chief Uba moved by his plea, left the room to attend to our campaign group in his compound. Then Dr. Ngige was saying that he had gone to swear to an oath with the Bishop in Enugu, oath of allegiance to Chief Uba and the group. He said if it means going to the shrine, he was prepared to take them there. He asked that Dr. Okey Udeh followed. At this point, there were hot exchanges of words between Okey Udeh and Chief Ngige. Okey Udeh said that it was not his loyalty that was in doubt but that of Dr. Ngige and that if he wanted to swear to anything, that it was he, (the governor) who was going to swear and not himself, (Udeh). So the suggestion was actually made by Dr. Chris Ngige himself when he was exchanging words with Okey Udeh. At this point, Chief Uba was outside the room. So I rushed out and called him and told him to listen, that their was a further development in this matter. See what Dr. Ngige was advocating. He said that he was tired of his crying, that was why he left the room. Ngige himself offered to take us to a shrine he knew at Okija. I think at this stage he was trying to solicit indirectly my backing that Okija being my L.G.A. But as you can see, no true son of Ihiala can ever go to Okija shrine, so I could not have taken Dr. Ngige. I am from Ihiala and not Okija because Ihiala and Okija have had age long disagreement over issues of pagan or Christian worship. So Dr. Ngige was not dragged there. He was not forced, infact he suggested that we contacted somebody he knews to take him to the shrine. He drove the car himself. For the past one year, I have refused to talk because of the of crisis, half truth and outright lies by Dr. Ngige. But I think this is the time to open up on this matter. The issue is this: if Dr. Ngige has acknowledged that he went to the shrine, which means, he saw all these dead bodies, he saw all these human heads, as a responsible citizen of Nigeria, so to say, as a medical doctor, as a former federal civil servant, as a governor in waiting, and as a Christian, a catholic he confesses to be, did he inform or notify the police or any security agency about the existence of human remains in Okija where he went to swear if he was forced to go there?
So he never reported to the police. So I tell you with 100 per cent certainty that he is a member of that cult having accepted to take an oath before the shrine. He got inducted into the cult. It was in his interest therefore to protect them. So Chief Uba never went there. It was Dr. Ngige who drove the car to that place, himself. The time I was telling you was 3:00a.m
Did he go alone?
He did not go alone. I am from that area. I was in the car, I did not go to the s hrine with him, Senator Abana was in the car, Dr. Okey Odunze was in the car. As you know you can't drive a car up to a shrine. The road was bad and such places of pagan worship, people don't go there like that. I am not a member so I refused to go there. So when we got to a point, he came down from the car and walked up there and took his oath. The distance between the car and the shrine was at least 50 metres, half the size of a football pitch.
And from there you could not have been hearing the incantations of the Chief priest. And if Ngige says that he heard the incantations, that means he was inside the shrine.
He said he went there with the bible and holy water, did you see such things while you were in the car?
I am an Igbo man, and I know Igbo customs and tradition.
And I am also a Catholic. If Ngige claims that he went to a shrine with the bible, then he has committed sacrilege and the Holy Spirit will consume him for that. He is a knowledgeable man, he knew he was not telling the truth when he claimed he went there with his bible. You don't know what he went there with, what he deposited in the shrine, the police should ask him what he deposited in the shrine because you cannot go to a shrine empty handed. You must bring some kolanut, a cow or some other things to appease the gods. So Ngige should tell the police what he went with. But he definitely didn't go there with the bible. We are all adults.

sagombugo: Declaration of assets is just a tip of the iceberg in the fight against corruption sir!
Moreso you are not correct that it was only GEJ as a public servant who declared his assets
Remember he was 'forced' to do so because Umaru Musa Yar'adua his boss then declared his assets I said the ONLY one who is ALIVE. GEJ holds that singular distinction in the fight against corruption through GREATER transparency and leadership by example! Please learn to read and comprehend COMPLETELY before you ridicule yourself just like your idol- Buhari.#FriendlyAdvice Meanwhile why have others in APC not done their public declaration of assets, which is the "tip of the iceberg"  We all have our idiosyncracies and mannerism at doing things, Ribadu having done his pupillage as a Law Graduate under Chief Gani Fawehinmi who also was his mentor sure took a bit of Gani's activistic body language in his works at EFCC. The same thing you will see in most guys who passed through Gani's chamber like Bamidele Aturu,Malachy Ugwuamadu,Festus Keyamo,Femi Falana,Ebun Adegboruwa,Rotimi Jacobs etc they are always vociferous and effective 
But what you don't know is that the Attorney General of the Federation is the person who will signal to the chairman of the EFCC who and who to prosecute judging by the body language of the President
So the war against corruption starts with the President....who has all the files of Highly Placed persons or Politically Exposed Persons on his table or with the AGF. So if the president doesn't want someone prosecuted by the EFCC or ICPC,what he just have to do is simply keep the file and refuse to release it because the EFCC/ICPC always submit their investigation or intelligence report on any person to the President thru the AGF office
The President is next after God,so he is the only person who can initiate the fight against corruption if he so desires! Now I understand why you are worshiping our former MAXIMUM ruler COUPist, Buhari. Because you feel so IMPOTENT and need a messiah to fix EVERYTHING for you. It has never happend before and it won't happen now. Governance is about EVERYONE getting involved and that is what GEJ is doing steadily by rebuilding our institutions of governance and reinforcing the indepence of the various arms:- executive - legislative - judiciary and the various tiers: - federal - state - executive of government in Nigeria. That is how it is in those places where our kiths & kins are rushing to on voluntary second slavery even if it means risking death in the Sahara desert or in the ocean!Africa does not need great men, it needs great INSTITUTIONS - Barrack Hussein Obama, POTUS |

sagombugo: No not all PDP governors or even Ministers are corrupt
Also not all APC personages are Saints!
But the branding we normally tag a party or company is a reflection of the summary of what its leadership stand for
PDP under GEJ has shown that he is not gonna fight corruption,so even if Donald Duke,Akpabio(until proven ottherwise),Amaechi,Lamido,Kwakwanso, etc all belonged to PDP....yet their captain the President says he doesn't wanna fight corrupt people cos he doesn't want them to attack him then too bad!
I will not be part of those who will cast blanket aspersion on any group of persons irrespective of my political dislike for that group Meanwhile GEJ is the only living public servant in Nigeria who has declared his assets to date?Do you know of any other  If you do please name them. Fighting corruption is not about the noise-making stunts of Ribadun's EFCC. It is about GREATER transparency as GEJ is doing. |

sagombugo: If you have as much as a whiff of intelligence,you will know that Buhari's PTF office wasn't located inside Aso Rock,just as CBN,Police HQs,NNPC HQs are not anywhere around the seat of power
When you take an appointment from Government,you only go about your own task and only sees the President on schedule when you want to debrief him or point his attention to a paperwork
Infact Abacha gave Buhari the PTF job to shore up his own image in the eyes of the international community who were breathing down his neck just as GEJ gave Christopher Kolade the SURE-P job owing to his acclaimed integrity which he hopes will rub off on his administration
Buhari couldn't have been privy to whatever Abacha was doing negatively as Buhari has been severally recorded not to socialise or hang out.
Infact most of the negative things and shady deals done in government circle are not done in the office hours but while you and I are sleeping. so a man who inadvertently don't do any of those vices of carrying young ladies,drinking would never be in the loop or in the know of some under hand dealings.

Aventures: The drill used in drilling this borehole was a locally made and pretty fast in drilling and it can go farther than the normal hand drilling. There was a time we had a challenge on borehole drilling in one of our site the first borehole contractor ran away after we have spent close to about 250k because they ve drilled over and over without success. we decided to do a geophysical test and the test recommended we are t drill 330ft to get to aquifer. and the cost was over a million naira. Later this man showed up and boasted he will do it for 250k no body believed him and he sign an agreement for a total refund in case he fails, but to day the rest is a good story 2 years running the borehole is still functioning perfectly well.

SEC approves N87.5b Lagos bond issuance
The Securities and Exchange Commission(SEC) has approved N87.5 billion seven year bond for Lagos State Government (LASG). The development forms the last tranche of its N275 billion fixed bonds issuance programme which the state government launched in 2008. The government had in about five years ago, issued a N50billion in the first series, N57.5billion and N80billion in the second and third. The Commissioner for Finance, Mr. Ayo Gbeleyi who disclosed this said the new approval from SEC yesterday for the N87.5 billion bond will be final tranche of the Lagos State Government's bond issuance. He said: "The bond, which is consistent with the state's policy thrust that focuses on poverty eradication and sustainable economic growth through infrastructure renewal and development, will contribute to the completion of on-going infrastructure projects to enhance the provision of social services aimed at improving the living standards of Lagosians. "The proceeds will be utilised as additional funding for various projects, including but not limited to the Lagos-Badagry Expressway, the Blue Line Metro Rail, the Adiyan Water Works, Ayinke House (one of the many dedicated Mother and Child Care Centres), to buy back the entire shareholding of the Lekki Concession Company, concessionaire of the Lekki-Epe Expressway and the Shoreline Protection Works." According to him, the bond issuance was another milestone in the state's drive towards its vision of making Lagos State Africa's model megacity and global economic and financial hub that is safe, secure, functional and productive. The commissioner explained that the bond will be issued by way of, "a book build, opening next week to qualified investors including Pension Funds, Banks, Fund Managers, Insurance Companies, other Institutional Investors and High Net worth Individuals, with Chapel Hill Denham as lead book runner. "Afrinvest, Radix Capital, FBN Capital, FCMB Capital Markets, Marina Securities, Skye Financial Services, Stanbic IBTC Capital, Vetiva Capital Management and Zenith Capital, are acting as joint book runners." He said the bond will mature in November 2020, adding that it is rated A+ by Agusto & Co. and AA- by Global Credit Ratings.

because i presume he parades forged title deed because your uncle does not have power to transfer ownership.if the land is in the east you can contact me through nairalandPM for advice on these procedures and legal opinion.

My uncle who sold my Dad's land is penniless and in a poorer position than my Dad. That said, it isn't a lost cause as some people suggest, your land is not just ypur Dad's but a legacy for you. It so happens I had to defend my Dad's property again, this stakes higher since this one was a family house. My tips are
* find relatives sympathetic to your cause who'll help secure unsold lands * you'll really still need someone to monitor your cousin and preferably come back to attend to matters yourself. * getting back sold lands is hard ish unless you've got connections for which you'll have to rely on friends or family * don't killyourself over it, you've lived without it. Work hard so you'll get your own or at least have a good life. I doubt juju and sh*t unlike others here but I know people can kill for lands so if you think things turn messy walk away.
Best of luck  Thank you for the highlighted portion. Most of us have not considered that those who die "mysteriously" in such land/property/inheritance cases could have done so for purely medical reasons related to hyper-anxiety, BP, cardiac arrest etc from all the legal wahala and expenses.Do we ever do post-mortem  Most of us need to understand that our spirits are tuned and modeled on what we believe- RELIGIOUS SUPERSTITIONS or RATIONAL thoughts & behaviour. |

He commended Bauchi State for being the number one state in the utilisation of Millellium Development Goals (MDG) intervention funds.
Sambo assured the state that it would henceforth be included in the provision of textbooks for public schools from which it had been excluded alongside Lagos State by the Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC).
While commending the Governor Isa Yuguda-led administration in Bauchi State for establishing the university and achieving the giant strides within two years of its establishment, the vice-president assured that the Federal Government would continue to partner with the state government in its developmental efforts in the education sector.
Speaking earlier, Governor Yuguda informed that the establishment of the Bauchi State University, Gadau, was conceived by the immediate past administration in the state, which his administration implemented following the approval of the National Universities Commission (NUC).
The university, which he said was being funded through the contribution of two per cent from state government’s monthly allocation and five per cent of each local government area’s allocation, according to Yuguda had three campuses situated in Gadau, Misau and Bauchi.
The governor further informed that so far the government had expended the sum of N16.5billion for the provision of infrastructural facilities at the university, while the Federal Government through the Tertiary Education Trust Fund (TetFund) had contributed about N542million to the university for the provision of two lecture halls and the moot court for its Faculty of Law. Good development and kudos to the PDP governor Isa Yiuguda. Thanks OP for sharing this news. Please continue to share more with pictures with us. We have always thought that only the noise-makers & propagandists in ACN/APC were the performers and nothing is happening by the governors and LGAs in the north.Great to note the QUIET collaboration and SUPPORT provided to all the 36 states by Jonathan's federal administration in the area of education. I only hope that Yuguda is also providing adequate primary, VOCATIONAL/TECHNICAL and secondary schools free for all residents of Bauchi STATE. |

Young German worked until 6am for three consecutive days before collapse at home in east London
Serious concerns have been raised tonight about the punishing hours endured by interns at City investment banks following the death of a young Bank of America Merrill Lynch employee.
Moritz Erhardt, 21, was nearing the end of a seven-week internship in London when he collapsed at home after working until 6am for three days in a row.
https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/08/25/article-2401711-1B6FC6DC000005DC-531_306x469.jpg
His body was discovered by his flatmates. The circumstances of his death are unknown, but police are not treating them as suspicious. Some reports suggested that Mr Erhardt, from Freiburg, south-west Germany, was epileptic.
Around 300 interns working at various banks stay at the Claredale House student accommodation complex in Bethnal Green in east London for between seven and 10 weeks over the summer. One intern, who did not want to be named, told The Independent those in Mr Erhardt’s investing banking division group faced the longest hours.
He said: “We all work long hours, but the guys working regularly until 3am or 4am are those in investment banking. People working in markets will have to be in at 6am but not stay as late, so what time you can leave the office depends on your division.
“You’re only doing it for up to 10 weeks so there’s a general acceptance of it. I see many people wandering around, blurry-eyed and drinking caffeine to get through but people don’t complain because the potential rewards are so great. We’re competing for some very well-paid jobs.”

It is such INSISTENCE on law & order by all & sundry even when it is INCONVENIENT and UNCONVENTIONAL that makes for a better society for everyone including those who have some power NOW and feel they are benefiting from the dog-eat-dog system we currently have. BTW, addressing this child labour/SLAVERY that is masqueraded as househelp can also reduce the baby factory syndrome by making adoption MORE acceptable and the legal procedure less cumbersome in our society. |

Usbeel: It doesn't concern you weather he is part of APC crew or not, you will know that when 2015 comes, GEJ will also know that! The sarcasm of my post seems lost on you. Anyway since you are based in Bauchi city I strongly advise and encourage you to take pictures of these developments you have listed as achieved by Yuguda so others can appreciate on NL. The saying here is that: If there is no picture then it did not happen. |

Usbeel: The state university, the teaching hospital, are they not his projects?? Is the Bauchi governor, Malam Isa Yuguda also a part of the APC crew since to believe their propagandists here they are the only ones working  It matters not that the ACN/APC governors launch only super-sized generators that they label IPPs  Otherwise they are launching KEKE NAPEP as ambulances at astronomical prices. |
