“In the course of that investigation in Nigeria, PREMIUM TIMES published more than 30 stories, with damning details revealing the secret offshore asset of many prominent Nigerians.

It is not illegal for Nigerians who are not public officers to own offshore accounts, and many prominent businesses do have them. However, some public officials found to have accounts did not disclose them as expected by law.

This newspaper’s investigations revealed the secret offshore assets of Senate President Bukola Saraki and his wife Toyin; as well as those of Mr Saraki’s predecessor, David Mark.

It also revealed how the late governor of Bayelsa State, Diepreye Alamieyeseigha, began looting his state and hiding public funds in offshore structures and how a former governor of Delta State, James Ibori, organised the stealing of the oil-rich state’s fund via offshore companies.

The investigations also revealed a network of shell companies in offshore tax havens linked to Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, and his brother, Sayyu Dantata; as well as the offshore companies of Wale Tinubu, the chief executive of Nigeria’s biggest indigenous oil company, Oando Plc, among others.

Similarly, the stories also exposed the secret offshore company of one of Africa’s most influential televangelists, Temitope Joshua, popularly called T.B Joshua, who died in June.

Other prominent Nigerians named in the investigations were former Minister of Defence and billionaire businessman, Theophilus Danjuma; Businessman, Hakeem Bello Osaigie; Globacom CEO, Mike Adenuga; Governor Abubakar Sadiq Sani Bello of Niger State; the late Ooni of Ife, Okunade Sijuwade; former Arik Air Chairman, Joseph Arumemi-Johnson and his wife, Mary, as well as two then-serving senators – Andy Uba (Anambra) and Ibrahim Gobir (Sokoto).

Other top business persons, politicians, and their family members were also found in the infamous database, including those who were then holding public offices.

The revelations sparked outrage across Nigeria, with activists, civil society organisations, the labour movement and the general public calling for extensive probes of those mentioned. But none of the violators has so far been prosecuted or sanctioned.

“The Pandora Papers series will be even more revealing,” Nicholas Ibekwe, PREMIUM TIMES head of investigations, said. “We hope the Nigerian authorities will take appropriate actions this time around to sanction those proven to have violated our laws.”

PLEASE IGNORE MY ENGLISH!
We all know how hard the country is @the moment,as we're all feeling the heat.

I have basically ran out of some major foodstuffs like yam, bag of potatoes,paints of rice and garri.for some couple of days now I have been racking my brain on how to purchase those items without disturbing my husband because recently he has bn complaining of low patronage.even my soaps and body scrub don finish for days now.

Me,I am somehow broke and sales lately hasn't bn interesting.i run a street roadside hustle and I don't go to hustle on Sundays which is my rest days.

But as level come be nau...kids must chow anyhow e be.so I decided since last night to come to hustle today being Sunday,since I have what to sale so I could see money to purchase those items I mentioned earlier on.

The raw truth I don't know how to borrow money from somebody,infact no one would even agree to lend money to you.so I decided to use what I have to get what I need.

Immediately I appeared in my hustleville arena this morning,one righteous woman like that dressed in a very lovely gown and peacock hat was to the first to hunt me down.

Mind you this woman has been hunting me for months,she was the reason why I stopped selling on Sundays because her preaching wahala was too much.

Mummy zee why nau?why nau?I thought you ve stopped?,why did you come out today.
Whilst she was busy asking me these questions,I bent down to lit my firewoods money must be made jare.

When she finished rapping,she looked at me,I looked at her,I carried my pan and placed it on the fire.in my mind I was like...hanty pls board your Keke and go,but for where.


I walked up to her and said.....pls ma'am cud you please lend me 30k?I need it to sort some things at home.madam said she doesn't have.


I left her there,went back to stir my beans paste in my mortal,madam borrowed herself sense then entered Keke and moooovv.

I settled down and sold maaad market,my money to buy those foodstuffs I mentioned is complete.i even bought succulent ripe plantains join to prepare correct plaintain and egg sauce for my family!
Bag of potatoes is sure,paints of rice is sure, tubers of yam toh sure,paints of garri nko,it's the Lord's doing.

I can confidently get my soaps and body scrub now.

Now my question is.....just because today that I didn't go to church would God be so angry to throw me into hell fire knowing fully well that my family needs these basic items?

Why do some too churchy righteous Christians likes hunting people that doesn't go to church and if you meet them to help you with money instead they will quote excerpts from the Bible to you.

Na market I sell....no be thief I thief!

Food is ready.
Indomie
3 eggs
Carrots
Green peas
Plantain.
Yum yum

Let's watch for the coming five to six Sundays..

In fact, let's watch out for your Sundays for the rest of this year, and even beyond

A renowned Philanthropist and currently a Governorship Candidate in the forthcoming Anambra Governorship Elections, Dr. Godwin Maduka has received the young family of famous Nigeria Businessman and Investor Dr. Olakunle Churchill and his lovely celebrity Wife, Actress Rosaline Meurer. He received the young couple and their new Baby days ago, at his mansion in Lekki, Lagos State.

During the visit, the young couple were given an overwhelmingly warm reception, especially with the side attractions created by their new Baby. Speaking exclusively with our Correspondent few moments after the visit, Dr. Churchill Olakunle expressed appreciation to Dr. Godwin Maduka for the amazing reception they received.

He also assured him of his support ahead of the forthcoming Governorship Elections in Anambra State. He therefore wished Dr. Maduka victory in the November 6th Polls. On the other hand Dr. Maduka thanked the entire family of famous Nigeria-Africa Investor, Churchill Olakunle for the honour of a visit to his humble abode.

During the visit, the new baby of Dr. Churchill was engaged in several fun-filled conversations with the frontline governorship candidate. At some point Maduka encouraged the couple to have about 10 of such vibrant and beautiful baby. Dr. Maduka also carried the Baby and blessed their Union.

“She brought her to you and said that he is her man..”

Is that how you people marry??
Did 2-face pay anything to you as bride-price?
Did you bless them as husband and wife?

I feel like commenting.
But I don't know what to comment

siofra:
Female child abeg.
All the male children where I live have turned to cultists and yahoo boys. It is well.

Now I see where your problem is..
You live in a very bad Environment.

Do you have your brothers around?
They have joined them too?

Presidency

We Have Not Forgotten Yet.
..
And Meanwhile, that Buhari’s driver that died after a brief illness at the DSS Custody,, why didn't the family carry an independent autopsy on him?? (The unfortunate driver that got the president to approve a scam deal which he himself doesn't even have a single gain inside - he was given the papers to deliver to the President for signing, and he did the errand just as he was sent without even looking at the papers. Now he had died, but the people that sent him on the errand are still alive and planning some other dirty scams)
..
Why did the matter die off so quickly too??

I love this

CandyOps:
Who else feels this topic is low-key disgusting?

That means, you have seen a placenta korokoro

Saneesk:
Good day fellow naira landers.

So I'm wondering do they really sell job offers or it's a myth. Really wanna know abd please what are the price range for notable agencies and bodies, might consider buying

Let me give you a first-hand experience at the Federal Civil Service Commission Office..
Seeking employment into the Federal Ministry of Water Resources kini-kini kiniko..
They will never tell you that the slot is for sale until you get there. Even if the slot was the slot reserved for you through long-leg, that person must call the Oga kpata-kpata again and mention your name before you get it for free.
If not, they will continue to dull your hand with a come-tomorrow, come-tomorrow attitude, until you start speaking with them in the proper street language..
Then they will tell you the right agent to meet..
(Probably a gateman or driver there).

NGpatriot:
Sadly for your meaningless and meandering essay, you have not seen where barrels of gun subdued an ideology, but you work around with guns to terrorize, your own people, to murder and slaughter them every day, to intimidate and make them comply with your authoritarian and brutal stay at home order when they display, you easily end their life and existence with your gun, you beat your mothers and trash their daily means of livelihood just because they have to feed their families, you burn down your own towns and villages, you burn businesses and kill mercilessly at will with your guns.


The question now is, what ideology are you trying to change with your guns? Yours or your own people's ideology since so far, they are the daily innocent victims of your guns, barbarity, lunacy, evil and merciless terrorist ways.


You typed this insane and unintelligent rubbish just to justify what is actually unjustifiable unless you are trying to convince the world that you must keep slaughtering your own igbo people until you get your way which makes no dam sense.

Are your own dead people the bargaining chips, hostage, or disposable rags?

Your own warped mentality is even a dangerous threat to whatever society you long for.

Sad.........

You don't have a solution..
You keep blaming and whining..

(Meanwhile, see the type of sarcasm someone bundled upon you and called it... - what is this even?? - He no even call it Independence Day Message sef - shame no gree him mention Indepen...)

obyrich:
Did you celebrate independence where you are? Forget IPOB, did you see anyone celebrating independence in non Igbo states as it used to be before?

Remember that IPOB begged on other states to boycott the Independence Day Celebrations in their states.??
Yess.. They begged and appealed to the conscience of other Non-Igbo States..
It wasn't an order.
Surprisingly, they heard the plea of IPOB and complied massively.
