FSA hits Nigerian mortgage broker with £100,000 fine



A mortgage broker who hid a criminal record and asked that regulators travel to Nigeria to interview him has been barred from practising and fined more than £100,000 by the City watchdog in a sign of its renewed determination to use hefty fines to deter wrongdoing.

The Financial Services Authority said Gabriel Aramide, director of 1st Point, a company based in Romford, Essex, obtained a false mortgage for himself by overstating his income. He also failed to tell the regulator of his criminal record for fraud, the FSA said.

PoliticsN250m Bribe: Inec Holds Emergency Meeting Today by blacksta(op): 4:55pm On May 12, 2009
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is to hold an emergency meeting today to resolve the alleged N250 million bribe said to have been given to some of its staff who participated in the last governorship rerun in Ekiti state.

Sources in Abuja confirmed to the Nigerian Tribune that the Commission will hold a meeting of its National Commissioners and the management which will be presided over by the Chairman, Prof. Maurice Iwu.

Media reports had indicated last week that some staff of the commission were being questioned by the Police over allegations that some of them had the sum of N250 million earmarked for them as gift by one of the political parties that participated in the election.

The Police unit in INEC office in Abuja headed by DCP J B Awelewa, had interrogated some members of staff of INEC over the allegation, which blew into the open shortly after the rerun on April 25.

PoliticsPdp Has Failed Nigerians - Anglican Church by blacksta(op): 4:52pm On May 12, 2009
The Anglican Church rose from its seventh synod at the St Peters Anglican Church, Minna, Niger State, on Sunday, concluding that the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has failed the nation.

The synod noted that “Nigerians are still hungry, poor, malnourished, unemployed, diseased, insecure, illiterate and underemployed”. In a three-page communique released at the end of the first session of the synod, the church noted that “the prices of rice and other essential commodities have continued to rise, electricity supply has become even more epileptic and the long queues at fuel stations have reappeared and are persisting in spite of government’s assurances to the contrary.”

The synod, according to the communique, therefore, called on the ruling party members “to judge how well they are performing.” It also reminded the party that “it is only two years away to seek a fresh mandate from these suffering poverty-stricken Nigerians.”

The synod also observed that the rerun elections in the country had continued to be bedevilled by “brazen frauds and political intolerance.” It, therefore, concluded that if government was serious about conducting credible elections and carrying out electoral reforms, “corrupt officials at Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) must first be flushed out while the laws should be amended to make all electoral malpractices and misconducts punishable at a minimum by life imprisonment.”

PoliticsRe: Is Nigeria Realy All About Corruption, Bad Governance, Yahoo Yahoo, 419, Drugs: by blacksta(m): 6:38am On May 11, 2009
Lax75:
[b]Nigeria is not a failed state. Until Nigerians actually become extint, its not a failed state. [/b]There is hope just like there was for Ghana. People would always compare Nigeria to Developed countries all the time but lets be realistic here. Let's crawl before we walk here. Let's compare apples to apples. Ghana, a little over a decade ago was no where near its current success. Yes, we have all these obstacles in Nigeria, but we also have many brilliant minds too. Nigerians are a bunch of smart, determined, creative people, who are admired by those who explicitly admit to these qualities, and implicitly by those who always bash us out of envy. That being said, we just need to re-focus our God given resources and chanel them towards success.

We are VERY blessed and our blessings are either mismanaged, embezzeled or looted by those who know we are blessed (the West). There is so much we can do, with the right infrastructure and leadership in place, besides selling crude oil. So much!! Tourism, outsourcing of labor from the west, agriculture, etc are all sleeping. Waiting to be exploited and "optimized."

So my answer is that there is more to Nigeria than corruption, yahoo, 419 etc, Here in the US, I don't have a single Nigerian friend who doesnt have at least an undergraduate degree. Most have advanced degrees and work as professionals in good companies. Many akata friends of mine have even made comments like "damn all y'all Nigerians are always doing something!" They got some hardcore respect for us.

My 2 cents
I dont you agree that you can use this the context to define a failed state. Is Zimbawe or somali not failed states. Your argument is clearly flawed because population still exists in these two countries. Anybody saying Nigeria is failed state is technically wrong but slightly closer to the truth. What i know - Nigeria is clearly showing trends of failed states if things are not reversed then maybe in another 10 or 15 years we will surely arrive at the status of a failed state.
