dfrost: Good riddance to crude attitude. If the chairman behaves in this manner, imagine how the supporters will behave.
Hooliganism from almajiris that Kwankwaso, Ganduje and other governors failed to educate in Dangote's state Imagine the incompetence of wrong priorities for looting by Kwankwaso?
OlusolaWarrior: Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of Kano State has disclosed the intention of his administration to build an exclusively female bilingual college in Niger Republic.
Last year, Governor Kwankwaso spent over N1 billion on the building of the Kano-Niger Republic Bilingual College in Niamey.
Kwankwaso said the gesture was part of efforts of his administration to consolidate bilateral relationship between Nigeria and Niger Republic.
Hosting officials of the Nigeria-Niger Joint Commission for Cooperation, he said the second school would be for female students.
Kwankwaso, in a statement by his media aide, Mallam Halilu Ibrahim Dantiye, explained that the move was also in furtherance of his administration’s girl-child education drive.
He recalled that his government had earlier constructed an all male bilingual boarding college in Niamey for Kano and Nigerien students, and that the need for another college became imperative because, “French is indispensable, considering the fact the Nigeria is surrounded by Francophone countries”.
He added: “Like the male bilingual college in Niamey, the proposed female college will provide opportunity for our young girls to learn French and interact with their Nigerien counterparts, thus promoting cultural relations between two brotherly nations”, he said.
Soludo your time is fast running out and we can’t see what you’ve done
Blowing empty grammar instead of employing workers to do all that Mbadinuju, Ngige, Peter Obi, Obiano failed to recruit for performing all the state and local governments' responsibilities
chrismastre5: All he cares about is blame, he does not want to do anything about soldiers killings because of curfew he put in place. Very useless Governor only knows how to speak English.
Speak English to tell lies against others while hustling for relevance
guzomaken: Charles Soludo’s Missing Trillions – Fact Check
In this article, I would review the highlights from the conclusion of Charles Soludo’s recent articles “I Stand By My Statements” Excerpt: “Let me also state for the avoidance of doubt that I stand by every statement I made in the two articles viz: (1) “Buhari Vs Jonathan: Beyond the Elections”; and (2) “Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala and the Missing Trillions”. In particular, I insist that over N30 trillion has either been stolen or unaccounted for, or grossly mismanaged over the last few years. This figure does not include the estimated $40.9 billion (N8.6 trillion at parallel market exchange rate or nearly two years’ Federal Government budget) which the African Union’s (AU) recent report” I would proceed to review the points raised, relying entirely on irrefutable facts, verifiable sources, and records, starting with (2). “The African Union’s (AU) recent report” Charles Soludo refers to is the “Illicit Financial Flows (IFF) – Report of the High Level panel of illicit Financial Flows from Africa”, commissioned by the AU/ECA Conference of Ministers of Finance, Planning and Economic Development. There is nowhere in the 126-page report where a mention was made about $40.9 billion stolen, unaccounted for or missing from Nigeria.
Where are the bogus figures coming from?
Clearly the figures being quoted and its attribution to the current Nigerian Finance Minister’s watch are false. Charles Soludo, relied on spurious publications by sections of Nigeria’s media notorious for publishing false information. The figures and slant of the report published in the media referred above were deviously fabricated and fed under false pretext to the public as sourced from a genuine report authored by the best of Africa’s men and women of integrity, values and professionalism. This trend portends a very sad dilemma for Nigeria, as the people read the press to inform themselves, the teachers, in this case, are the major source of regression. This sad perversion of information is quite regular with the Nigerian press. In subsequent articles; I would review allegations of missing trillions of Naira (Charles Soludo), missing billions of dollars (Lamido Sanusi), mostly from Oil and Gas revenues, the facts, figures and reality. I would also provide detailed insights on how the Nigerian Oil and Gas industry functions, the myths, the realities, the opportunities for graft, illicit operations, leakages, the complicity and role of the executive arm of government, agencies and employees, security, businessmen, politicians etc The purpose is to provide accurate information to engender an issue-based discussion from a foundation of knowledge based on the true situation and facts
Because the Yoruba betrayer has been worshipping the owners of this Luggardian contraption that some call the Fulani Republic of Naijeriya, FRN
MANDIPUTIN: AS president in 2011, Goodluck Jonathan did all he could to ensure South West grabbed the country’s number four seat, including lobbying then opposition leaders from the zone, to no avail. The North West eventually grabbed the seat, supported by South West leaders in opposition to then ruling party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Former Governor of Osun State and now statesman, Chief Bisi Akande, made this revelation in his autobiography, “My Participations” which is currently dominating political and national dis- course.
Aminu Tambuwal, now Sokoto State governor, won the seat, against the preferred pick of his party, Mrs Mulikat Adeola Akande, from the South-West. Defunct Action Congress of Nigeria, then a fledging opposition, which had Akande and his soulmate, former Lagos State governor, Senator Bola Tinubu, as front- line leaders, openly asked its elected members of the House of Representatives, mostly from the South-West, to work against their region and back Tambuwal from North-West.
The opposition party’s support carried Tambuwal through the contest against Akande, then ruling party’s favourite for the speakership seat.
In his book, Chief Akande revealed that former president then as incumbent, personally reached out to Tinubu, who is now believed to be nursing presidential aspiration in 2023 and himself, but couldn’t convince them.
Caleb17: ICAN is now common. Every profession in Nigeria is now over saturated because bad governance. Our graduates has no jobs. VOTE PETER OBI FOR PRESIDENT!
You should have shown how many people he recruited into the civil service, and as teachers, librarians, nurses, pharmacists, laboratory technicians etc to significantly improve the employment situation in Anambra during his eight years. If you don’t and can’t do that, are you just a liar like Peter Obi
Kizzygentle: Abeg u guys should go and sit down jor.. Boring set of people..
Why are you keen to live a boring life without water, electricity, education for your children, healthcare, good roads, jobs, security, law and order etc? Na who do you this bad, boring thing? Please let us know how to sacrifice for the juju to be lifted from your boring life. Shall we
AnonPoet: I noticed that Labor Party Presidential candidate and former governor of Anambra blame youths for saying his investment in SabMiller was $20 million and worth $100 million as he says the statement did not come from him.
Here is a video where Peter Obi with his own mouth said it. I am not saying Peter Obi lied, but this is what he said
You don't have to say he lied since we all can see & hear him tell the lies with his own mouth. A serial liar and rogue for that matter pretending to be a saint.
Sergio101: Po the man. if you fight him, your must surely collect (both physical and spiritual). Ask mbaka, Wike and recently Ekweremmadu
Collect stomach infrastructure from him like the poor boy who was to be used as kidney harvest ritual for Ekweremadu's daughter, because saint Obi hid money for Anambra development in Pandora
sunnymighty: @no 8 above, why was it not confirmed before they left the shores of this country?
................indicating that this other perspective na fabricated lies from fake Nnewi factories The same way Obi fabricated lies of investing $20 million that turned into $100 million overnight. How did $12 million change to $20 million?
SATANICALLY: In a 2018 interview, Peter Obi said he invested $20 million in International Breweries on behalf of Anambra state as a governor.
Obi’s claim was in response to questions on economic development, Anambra politics and his presidential ambition.
“… Anambra state is the single-highest shareholder in that facility. I invested in it, over $20 million,” Obi had said.
“It is worth almost $100 [million] today. That’s what government should do.”
TheCable had previously fact-checked some of the claims.
Chukwuma Soludo, governor of Anambra, also debunked a recent statement ascribed to him regarding the investment.
International Breweries (IB) Plc is a subsidiary of the world’s largest brewer, Anheuser-Busch InBev (AB InBev) — a multinational drink and brewing giant based in Leuven, Belgium.
In its 2021 audited financial statement, the company said it holds 43 percent economic interest in International Breweries Plc, a publicly listed company in Nigeria.
According to a report by The Nation, AB InBev merged its Nigerian operations under a single corporate entity in 2017. It had three indirect Nigerian subsidiaries — International Breweries Plc, Intafact Beverages Limited and Pabod Breweries Limited. SABMiller Nigeria Holdings BV — another subsidiary of AB InBev — was also a major stakeholder in Intafact and Pabod.
ANAMBRA’S INVESTMENT
In a statement made available to TheCable on Tuesday, Ifeatu Onejeme, Anambra’s commissioner of finance, confirmed that Peter Obi’s administration invested the sum of N1,955,535,247.00 (an equivalent of approximately $12,616,356.43 at the then average CBN exchange rate of N155.00/$1) in Intafact Beverages Limited, a green-field brewery set up in Onitsha by SABMiller Breweries of South Africa in 2012.
adecz: The senator or his wife are the best donors to their child, but they prefer to incapacitate a young man suffering from poverty❗️❗️☹️☹️☹️
Poverty that is induced by the Ekweremadus and other public office holders looting our past, present & future? Meanwhile our tribesmen attitude won't let us reason well.
Just as Buhari consolidated on Jonathan's development
ijebuloaded: The Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, on Tuesday commended the immediate past administration of ex-President, Goodluck Jonathan for embarking on massive projects that have been beneficial to Nigerians.
Speaking at a Town Hall meeting in Abuja, the former Rivers State governor said his Ministry did not meet any comatose project on assumption of office.
He said the President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration continued the projects of the previous administration because “We realised the impact of the recession.’’
Amaechi noted that the Kaduna-Abuja railway was nearly 80% completed by the Jonathan’s administration.
He said, “In the ministry of transportation, we did not meet anything comatose. We met an attempt to bring back our rail services.
“The Kaduna-Abuja railway was nearly 80% completed which we commissioned and commercial services have commenced.’’
onumadu: Not necessarily true. What makes 2023 totally unique is that the youths are only interested in the presidential election, and I won't be surprised if they just vote for Peter Obi and go home.
Do you realise that the president can be impeached and governors can refuse to cooperate with him? What manner of Bubu's lazy youth fantasy is this your comment? Is that the type of useless reasoning that made Obi run away from Ekiti instead of campaigning for LP's candidate
DiscoverID: Please, what about Aba and onitsha? Those places that even pigs are protesting the conditions.
Did Aba and Onitsha generate as much IGR from the people's pockets as Lagos since 1999 with nothing to show for it except Thiefnuibu's looting in bullion vans
SensualMan1: Kolework. U didn't do this six months ago, one year ago, all of a sudden u are now showing us throw back on how u were commissioner for education in lagos state
This senile old epileptic thief is trying to play Northern politics with yoruba people - impoverish them long enough so that when u throw a bone at them they will call u the messiah!
You are a wise person. Regressive thing who did not provide free education for all children is being hailed as progressive for paying WAEC fees only. How did we get it wrong in our Omoluabi expectations of public office holders who collect money from us as IGR and receive revenue from corporates on our behalf to provide government services, utilities, facilities and infrastructure maintenance? How did we drop it so low
