Ok |
Are we under siege by snakes? |
This guy would have done better as EFCC boss. Not customs. There will be in-fighting in custom for him and his brothers may frustrate him. He is a total outsider. |

If you want to have a hint of how much our economy is on auto reverse, watch the business news on Channels, AIT and NTA. I dont have time to carefully analyse our economic state. Its not surprising though, we have had good monetary policy but to what gain, without a fiscal policy expert to provide economic direction. Investors are loosing confidence...fiscal policy chats the course for economic direction. This is totally lacking. I am still observing and patiently waiting for the coming list. It better be worth the time wasted and be able to recover all that is lost. |
Ok |
Trust me, this cant be the list. It will be insane ti think that this is why we waited for over 3months. Imagine Funsho Kupolokun...former MD of NNPC that left no legacy... Make i wait first till the list is out. It better worth all the time waited...or else...wailers should get ready to welcome a new intake. Reason is simple....a leader can only go far by the calibar of brains hr surrounds himself with. I am tired of recycled heads. |
Former Managing Director of the Pipeline Product Marketing Company, PPMC, Prince Haruna Momoh is currently under the radar of the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission, ICPC over the sum of $700 Million he fleeced from the Petroleum agency and laundered in foreign Banks, sources familiar with the investigation hinted Pointblanknews.com. As part of the investigation, traveling documents of Prince Momoh have also been confiscated by Federal Authorities to prevent him from fleeing the country while investigation is on-going. Pointblanknews.com gathered from very credible sources that officials of the Metropolitan Police in the United Kingdom had placed Prince Momoh under investigation when huge sums running into several Millions of Dollars were deposited in London branches of Access Bank and First Bank. According to a source familiar with the investigation who pleaded anonymity because he is not authorized to speak on the matter, Aig Imoukhuede, the former Managing Director of Access Bank was notified of the Millions of Dollars deposited in Access Bank, London branch. Not wanting to get into trouble, he immediately asked that the account be closed. Soon after the account linked to the former PPMC boss was closed by Access Bank, Mr. Imoukhuede was said to have immediately alerted the Metropolitan Police who swiftly began investigations. Sources told Pointblanknews.com that preliminary investigations indicated that the sum of $700 million belonging to Prince Haruna has been traced through a lady acquaintance whom he uses as a front at a Bank in the Isle of Man. Officials of the ICPC are said to have been intimated of the development and are currently collaborating with officials of the Metropolitan Police to repatriate the funds to Nigeria. Efforts to reach the spokesperson of the ICPC were not successful but an official who from the anti-graft agency who spoke to Pointblanknews.com said he is not aware of the $700 million looted funds. He said although Prince Haruna is under investigation on other matters relating to money laundering and fraud while he served as the PPMC boss. “I can confirm he is under investigation for money laundering but I am not aware of the $700million fraud. That seem to be another new area I would have to cross-check with my superiors,” the source said. Sources said while Haruna served in PPMC, he looted the agency, acquired choice properties which include 11 estates in Abuja and 13 Houses in London He is also alleged to have laundered a whopping sum of $30million through Sterling Bank Plc using one Biodun, a staff of Access Bank as point man. Part of the atrocities linked to the former PPMC boss include the use of Kerosene as Aviation fuel for which he allegedly rakes in for himself the sum of $1million for every five thousand tons of Kerosene sold as Aviation fuel. Only recently, Chairman of the Airline Operators of Nigeria, the umbrella body of the domestic airlines in the country, Captain Nogie Meggison accused Aviation fuel marketers of selling kerosene as aviation fuel to airlines in the country. He said the practice was already affecting the performance of the local carriers’ aircraft engines. Meggison spoke at a one-day breakfast meeting organized by Aviation Round Table, an industry advocacy body, in Lagos recently. “Oil marketers are now selling kerosene to us as aviation fuel. The NCAA is aware of this because we have sent a document to the NCAA on the issue,” the AON chairman said. He said that the International Air Transport Association had sent a Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) to all airline operators coming into the country to beware of aviation fuel being sold to them in Nigeria, stressing that the NCAA had been notified of the development. Sources said Haruna, in collaboration with some top officials of the NNPC allegedly connived with some Aviation fuel marketers to sell Kerosene as Aviation fuel, making huge profits which are in turn banked in both Nigeria and foreign accounts. When Pointblanknews.com sought to speak with the former PPMC boss, his numbers were switched off and text messages not delivering. http://pointblanknews.com/pbn/exclusive/icpc-to-confiscate-700million-stolen-by-momoh-former-ppmc-boss/ |
This is the sole reason we are not taken serious in UK and U.S. If you show up in UK, U.S, Canada, etc with our first degree, no blue chip company will offer you a job till you acquire their own degree. Reason is simple, we dash and award degrees to the highest bidder. Patience Jonathan collected more than 3 honourary degrees when the husband held sway in government. Tinubu has gotten the first for being king of the West. Watch how PMB will be awarded soon by many mushroom universities. The question i ask is for what reasons are they awarded. Why was PGEJ not awarded before the husband became president. Was Osun Univeristy founded in 2015, why now? Dont get me wrong. Am happy for him. Just concerned about the motive and the image we paint about our education... |
While America hurridly passed the gay law, they neglected the right to religious believe. Currently, presidential candidates including the radical Donald Trump preaches the right to religious beliefs. America may implode as this woman has set the pace, many more will be gladly be willing to go to jail. The constitution of countries are secondary to religion, especially in the heart of man. America preaches civil liberties and human right. The right to belief must not be overhsadowed by gay law. For your information, i am proudly anti-gay. Lalasticlala |
A U.S judge has ordered that a Kentucky official be jailed for contempt of court after she repeatedly refused to issue marriage licences to gay couples. Kim Davis has said that her Christian faith should exempt her from signing the licences. The US Supreme Court declared gay marriage legal in June. After interviewing her fellow clerks, the judge said Ms Davis could go free if she allowed her deputies to grant the licences, but Davis refused. Ms Davis, an elected official in Rowan County, has said the Supreme Court's ruling conflicts with her beliefs as a born-again Christian.You can't be separated from something that's in your heart in your soul," Ms Davis said. "I promised to love Him with all my heart, mind and soul because I wanted to make heaven my home." US District Judge David Bunning said he had "no alternative" but to jail her, because issuing fines would not change her mind. "Her good faith belief is simply not a viable defence," said Mr Bunning. "Mrs Davis took an oath. Oaths mean things." He added that letting one person's beliefs supersede the authority of the court would be a dangerous example to set. Ms Davis' lawyer, Mat Staver, said: "The judge said that he's going to bring her back out in another week and see if she's changed her mind. But knowing Kim Davis, she's a woman of strong conviction and conscience and I don't see her changing her mind." Ms Davis' lawyer had claimed that her deputy clerks could only issues licenses under Davis' authority, but the judge overruled that objection. Five deputy clerks told the judge on Thursday they would comply with the court order. A sixth deputy clerk, Ms Davis' son, Nathan, refused. The judge decided not to hold Nathan Davis in contempt of court. Hundreds of protesters lined up outside of the federal courthouse on Thursday, chanting and waving signs both of support and opposition. Local reporters tweeted photos of the two different camps in close quarters outside of the courthouse.Protesters screamed "Love won! Love won!" outside of the courthouse after learning of the decision. Ms Davis stopped issuing marriage licenses to all couples in June after the legalisation of gay marriage, turning couples away repeatedly. The US Supreme Court on Monday rejected the argument that her faith prevented her from carrying out her duty. "I have no animosity toward anyone and harbour no ill will. To me this has never been a gay or lesbian issue. It is about marriage and God's word," she said in a statement. She can only be removed from her position if the Kentucky legislature impeaches her, because she is an elected official. Various 2016 Republican presidential candidates, like Mike Huckabee, Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, Senator Ted Cruz and Senator Marco Rubio, have come out in support of Ms Davis' decisions. Others like Carly Fiorina, Senator Lindsey Graham and Ohio Governor John Kasich have said she must do her job and comply with the law.

Wendy80:It wasn't easy that day. The bad part of flying is that you cant see the pilot to slap |
Hmmm |
Arik i flew one time with my wife and kids, only to get up and the air conditioners stopped working. I will choose Keke marwa over Arik |
What will you do. We all know most African men dont take Will writing serious. What will you do?

Kwara is Yoruba by tribe, language and culture but a slave to the Fulanis. willfully sold to the Hausa fulani by Afonja and perpetuated by the saraki Dynasty. Even the present Emir of Ilorin on ascendancy to the throne changed his name to Fulani name. very unfortunate. I have planned to ask Yoruba people why they are silent about this anormaly |
ever graceful |
A break away from a collapsing party will not be formidable. PDP should rebrand their name, bring in new bloods and go revolutionary anything short of this that party will not resurrect |
Well done guys. |
hope its not true |
[quote author=MrPresident1 post=37613514]http://www.mynewswatchtimesng.com/obafemi-awolowo-best-president-nigeria-never-had/[/qulote] You posted the 26 memorial lecture of Awo..are you serious? Were you expecting Ojukwu to tell tgem at the lecture that Awo was not trusted by the pokitical class? Nobody talks evil of the dead in Africa. Its usually about what people want here there. |
MrPresident1:Yes, he may have been the president Nigeria never had simply because, the political class never trusted him. Especially the north till they killed him. |
MrPresident1:I need your source....am not to believe this just because you typed this hiding behind a moniker For mine go and read, THE FIVE MAJORS: Why we struck And Because I'm involved by Ojukwu These two books have your answers. |
The fundamental pillar of politics is interest and loyalty oiled by trust. Did they trust each other? I doubt. Zik suffered from irredeemable arrogance Awo can not be trusted. He spoke from both sides of the mouth. They just couldn't work together. Have i answered you |
kamair237:your signature just endorses your position above...you may consider change of name so that we can handle your sentiments |
playing the role of Idiagbon well....But am scared for his life...i dont trust the North |
ibedun:Hate is not good for your health dear, if you have personal grouse with her...go and grouse it. Adesina is grateful for her gesture and is forever grateful to her. to that End, Adesina will disagree with you. allow her be. If PMB has anything against her, let them try her and convict her. you hating or wishing her evil is a seed you are sowing and it will come back. never wish another evil. whateever a man sows. |
MrMcJay:Sorry for the language. However, that post was out to deceive and misinform the gullible and someone needed to put records straight. i am not out for propaganda or misinformation to get unsavoury gain |
