KingSHUAIBU: The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) has launched a mobile application that will aid anonymous whistle blowing for corrupt practices happening both within government agencies and parastatal as well as the private sectors.
The chairman of the commission, Ekpo Nta launched the App in Abuja on February 13, 2017.
The App called ‘Wahala Dey’ is available on android mobiles, blackberry mobiles and windows mobiles and can be downloaded at no cost to users.
Nta while addressing newsmen shortly before the launch stated that criminal activities can only thrive when an opportunity to act is provided. He added that the commission will take proactive measures to block leakages in public and private sectors through which corrupt practices can be perpetuated.
“Corruption is a global and cross boarder problem that has far-reaching consequences on nations and societies. Nigeria is not an exception. As we grapple with the challenges of reducing corruption in the polity, we must recognize that this criminal activity thrives on opportunity to commit the act, he said.”
Nta added that the App (Wahala Dey) is in-line with the commission’s drive towards harnessing technological solutions to fighting corruption in Nigeria.
In his words, “We champion the provision of technological solutions to corruption, one of which is the recently launched e-portal pssp.gov.ng for greater transparency and accountability in Nigeria’s ports sector.”
He urged the public to join hands with the commission, adding that only in partnership can corrupt-free Nigeria be achieved.
doublewisdom: And how much did he Sanusi steal under Jonathan?
Ask them my brother. GEJ has become the scapegoat of Nigeria's economic woes. As if there has not been looting in previous administrations before GEJ. PDP in power met over $40 billion dollars debt, rather than blame anyone, they did not remain at that level or worsen situation, but got together the best brains & hands around; cleared the debt and made the country credit worthy while stabilizing the economy all through their regime. What do we have now? A bunch of incompetent square pegs in round holes, practicing tribalism and nepotism but desperately looking for who to blame for their failure. At least they should have left us at the level they found us when they (APC) came in, but no, they had to bury us very deep under. And their zombie supporters are here blasting our eardrums with silly excuses.
olasaad: He starts a fight and ran away with a plane and left the subjects who can not afford to do so to died of hunger. And some people are still calling him a hero
Please read the Nig civil war history. Ojukwu did not start the war,he merely fought for his people and defended them as far as the little resources at his disposal could take him. Biafra actually fought against Britain and most western powers who sided Nigeria in that war. Now if anybody ought to be called a coward in the crises, it would be brigadier Ogundipe who was next in rank to assassinated gen Ironsi (the head of state). Ojukwu actually rejected Gowon as head of state and insisted that the highest ranking officer (Ogundipe) became head of state. But Ogundipe did not even wait to argue, talk less of insisting on his right. He fled to London.
Is it really true that an original 'Gad stone' is presently in the palace of Eze Nri (The foremost monarchy in Igbo land) ? In ancient time, the Gad stones were distributed to family heads of the Gad clan (Gad is one of the 12 tribes of Israel) for identification. Can someone confirm or refute this claim.
EdifiedCEO: Former Delta State governor, James Ibori, returned to Nigeria today after he was released from prison in the UK last month.Now, I hope all the magu-magu court declarations that he was not an ex-convict has been vacated; and no one would later be asked to prove that it is this particular James Ibori that was jailed in London.
Here's what Nigerians are saying about his arrival:
Olubukola16: Mtcheewwww....... arrant nonsense! When he knew that, why did he accept the appointment in the 1st instance. Oga, that's a flimsy excuse. Honestly, everything about this govt is wrong, why would a retired army be appointed as a CG of customs.
The officer due to be appointed as custom boss was from the south east, and rather than that happen, the retired soldier was plugged in as a square peg in a round hole.
J3RK: He was Poking you with his Joystick Were you guys the only occupants of the Bus?? How could he bring out his dicck in public?? Are you Mad?? Irresponsible Delusional Pathetic Failure of a Fiction Writer!!
I wonder how that fiction is near possible. Was she sitting on the man's laps or is the man's joystick on the outside of his thigh? or probably the joystick is like 24 inches long.
chrisxxx: We are ready for whichever name the bill might be known as provided that the area of the mechanised farm would be carved out as an LGA. This is the stand of my community. If Hausa/Fulani agrees with this give and take arrangement, let them have the land. I wish all other Southern states could queue into this.
You people do not understand the Fulani game plan of taking territories. Before you know it, that carved-out LGA would make them indigenous to the state; they will turban a 1st class Emir, who would oversee other traditional rulers in the state, with federal backing of course. Ask Plateau state peeps how they are faring.
Aufbauh: "Everything about the President is deceptive and selective because of which he will not win the antigraft fight,” said Chairman of Kano Chapter of CAN, Bishop Ransome Bello. According to him, members of the ruling party are being shielded from the anti-corruption periscope,
Sounds more like "PDP CAN". Having the voice of Esau but the body of Jacob. If not,how can a religious body like CAN addressing the unfortunate killing in southern Kaduna dabbles into party politics?
.
Are you by any means insinuating that killing of innocent people is not a form of corruption?
Sometime around June 2015, UN invited the Biafra movement to it's meeting in Washington USA; but none of the biafra leaders attended. Does anyone have information about that supposed meeting and what happened?
Beetobee: Now, before that righteous Yahoo Boy, who you intend to give your January salary to, jumps up and starts calling masturbation a sin, let’s remember that Isaac married Rebecca when she was only 3 years old, according to research done by scholars, and the average marriage age for boys in biblical times, was around 13. .. Yet some undesirable elements in their foolishness keep insulting Prophet Muhammad over his marriage to Nana Aisha. Well, I don't really blame them, for they are ignorant. My advice: endeavor to exorcise this foolishness from yourselves from this malignant ignorance!
That research about discovering that Rebecca was 3 years old when she married is at best a charade. The bible clearly described her as an adult, who carried a water jar that a three tear old can never carry. Additionally after giving Abraham's servant (Eleazer) water to drink, she also fetched water to quench Eleazer's accompanying camels' thirst. Anyone who knows how much water one camel can drink, will also know that what Rebeka did was not a task for a three year old.
SEA: Trully,God says we must not kill and I strongly belief but how would a soldier cope at the war front when he has no option than to kill?
(Ecclesiastes 3. vs. 1,3 & 8.) There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under heaven...A time to kill and a time to heal... A time to love and a time to hate. A time for war and a time peace.
Re: Technical & Brain Teaser Questions Asked During Job Interviews by jp philips(m): 11:59am On Sep 23 a filled lorry crossing a bridge with less than 10m to destination meets a cross bar, for some reasons he cant reverse, how does the lorry make it pass the crossbar without a scratch on both lorry and crossbar
NB; the lorry is just 2inches longer than the crossbar.
Simply deflate the tyres to about 2.1/2 inches lower than it is presently.
I have tons of these brain wrackers in a compendium of Logic texts, although it is in soft copy. Any interested NLander can send an email and I will send a copy to them. Although I must confess I never read beyond the first few pages. Fortunately I am gainfully employed and so would not b needing those question and answer sessions. Before I forget, Accenture embarrassed me with one of those questions way back in time, I felt very silly when I got home and realized I goofed. fabritechno@yahoo.co.uk soft copy please. Thanks
