Probes NPA over alleged $3b fraud

The Senate Committee on Appropriation yesterday asked the Works, Power and Housing Minister, Mr. Babatunde Fashola, to resign if he could not cope with the responsibilities of his ministry.

After being briefed at a plenary session by the Chairman, Senate Committee on Appropriation, Danjuma Goje, on the utterances of Fashola, the Senate resolved to await the outcome of the meeting of the minister with the House of Representatives before taking a final decision on him. The development is an indication of the worsening rift between the National Assembly and the Executive.

ABRAKA—THE lawmaker representing Ethiope East in Delta State House of Assembly, Chief Evance Ivwurie, has raised alarm that his life was under threat owing to his campaign against armed Fulani herdsmen in his constituency.

Chief Ivwurie, in a statement yesterday, explained that some individuals from the northern part of the country were using the security agencies to muzzle him in an attempt to silence him.

He said: “A Kaduna State-based group petitioned the Minister of Interior and National Security Adviser accusing me and the Deputy Speaker of Delta State House of Assembly, Mr Friday Osanebi, of alleged proclamation of genocide against the Fulani and Hausa in our constituencies.

“The threat I am currently facing is as a result of my decision to champion and stand in the gap for the people of my constituency who are killed and maimed daily by suspected armed Fulani herdsmen.

“I have been invited by the Delta State Police Command on several occasions

Igbo, first settlers in Ile-Ife—Igwe Achebe

Achebe said the Igbo society existed beyond what Achebe recorded in his books, disclosing that a recent history book has ascribed to the Igbo as

the original settlers in Ile-Ife and whom Oduduwa met, other than the present contest between the Ife and the Ugbo sections in Yoruba land.

Igwe Achebe, therefore, tasked the academia in the University of Nigeria to conduct further research that would either authenticate the new

study on Igbo settlement.

Edo line was a popular transport lines most students use during the days of lucky Igbinedion.

Oshiomole (APC ) came and killed the company, only to be buried by Obaseki (APC ).

shocked fans of Shooting Stars Sports Club (3SC) were still rooted to their seats 30 minutes after referee Umar Mohammed’s final whistle,
as 10–man FC IfeanyiUbah achieved the unimaginable of a 3-0 whiplash of the Oluyole Warriors right at the Lekan Salami Stadium, Ibadan.

From the first incident of the match, Tamen Medrano sent Bright Onyedikachi down the right wing from a free kick, and the former Super Eagles B player found Godwin Obaje, who poked in with his left foot after only two minutes.

The bigger and taller visitors dominated the aerial play with ease, and entertained the crowd with their easy and meaningful touches. Only 13 minutes later, off colour Adigun Adewale lost the ball carelessly from a Shooting Stars corner kick, and FC Ifeanyiubah captain King Osanga combined with Seka Pascal, who buried the ball behind goalkeeper Michael Uweru.

The National Bureau of Statistics, (NBS), has said that residents in Abuja, Cross River, and Adamawa states paid the highest bus fares within city in April.

NBS, in a new report released on Tuesday, revealed that the residents paid nothing less than N255.00, N210.54 and N200.00 respectively moving within the cities.

Considering the current inflation rate, the data revealed that the fares have risen significantly when compared year on year, and month on month.
This means that commuters spent more of their income of movement from one place to another, which also had a ripple effect on the prices of goods and services, thereby further impoverishing Nigerians.

For assuming duties before screening and confirmation, President Muhammadu Buhari’s nominee for the position of Director-General, National Lottery Regulatory Commission, Lanre Gbajabiamila, was yesterday asked to steer clear of the office until his nomination is approved by Senate.

The Senate warned the nominee who is a younger brother of House of Representatives Majority Leader, Femi Gbajabiamila, not to be seen within the vicinity of the commission.

It condemned the resumption of the nominee without an appointment letter and legislative confirmation, saying this is in violation of Section 8 (1) of the Nigerian Lottery Regulatory Commission which stipulates that the president shall appoint the director-general subject to the confirmation of the Senate.

Really? I hope you know that when Lugard declared Nigeria, he did it with gun and koboko?

your cry for biafra would have been unnecessary if Aguyi Ironsi ( Igbo-Man) have allowed the regional system which the british left to continue.

But he destroyed the system and unified everything because of greed ( typical of igbo-man)

DocHMD:
Col Unegbe an Igbo officer and quater-master general of the Army was slaughtered by the same 'Igbo coupists' including Maj. Ademoyega and Lt Kpera (non-Igbos).

Why do people like to conveniently develop amnesia even when these facts are slammed on them like a nylon-bag of ewedu-stained shiiit?

Colonel indeed

but nnamdi Azikwe and micheal Okpara was tipped off by the igbo coupist,

then started killing other regional leaders

kingzizzy:
But when the Igbos declared their own country and went their way, you Nigerians came to the East to fight for 3 years to bring them back to Nigeria

Because your people did it the wrong way

paramakina202:
We are not saying the same thing and btw the North had their so called revenge coup and killed as they wish.

please tell me one eastern region leader that was killed by Nzeogwu

paramakina202:
My question was directed to Reno an Ijaw man who is trying to exonerate Nzeogwu .
Btw I am an Igbo man.

we are saying the same thing.

Igbos should tender general apology

paramakina202:
Why making excuses for Nzeogwu?
He was as guilty as the other four.

that is the problem with the igbos,

they will never accept their wrong deed

Biafra won't see the light of the day
