omenka: The sad truth is that this happens in almost all government ministries and agencies!! We only get lucky every once in a while with such revelations.

Nigerian politicians are obsessed with wealth and luxury. Just the other day, a federal Perm. Sec paid a courtesy call, and as someone whose responsibility it is to ensure the comfort of our guests, I booked him into some posh hotel in Effurun. Room, a presidential suit!!! But nay, the old prick thought it was too small a room for a man his status!! Then he flared up, cursing and telling me how disrespectful I am!! That he's got all his kids overseas and the hotel room was nothing compared to what he enjoys in his private residence!!! That is the money for rentage my money Yours truely couldn't believe his ears!!! Was tempted to tell him to ask his people to transport his house down to Warri so he could sleep in his damn heavenly bedroom!! After all sed and done, he still slept in the room anyway.

Just trying to tell us how vain these people could be. They are ready to run down this country without even batting an eyelid!! They think this country as their personal fiefdom where they could do whatever without question!
Official corruption in this country runs deeper than any of us here can ever imagine!

God, oh my God, Nigeria on my mind, Nigeria on OUR mind and nothing is difficult for You, not even our restoration!

Just last week I assured my Igbo kinsmen that God will reveal more about aviation industry and Sister Stella Oduah and He did not disappoint me. He is faithful not because He wants to put us to shame but that we should cleanse ourselves and change the way we reason and above all to uphold TRUTH always. Truth is God and like oil, no matter the amount of water poured on it, it will still float.

Shame to those who told me that standing for the truth, not supporting Stella, shows I am not Igbo!!

BekeeBuAgbara: While it's easy to tell princess Stella Odua to resign, I wonder why no one is calling for NCAA D.G, captain Fola Akinkuotu's head, the man who purchased the cars.

Because N255m had to be approved by the Ministry of Aviation - Stella Oduah - for the cars to be purchased. No agency can spend that much without Stella's signature and approval. Go check this fact!

Stella Oduah was put in aviation (NCAA is an excess money making machine) to recoup all the money she spent on GEJ's NEIGHBOR to NEIGHBOR campaign adverts which was on even during the fuel subsidy removal crises. GEJ and PDP will look the other way and we all know this is the fact staring us in the face. NCAA director general is only a stooge!

God who raised Jerry Rawlings as His rod to free Ghana in their own gloomy days will raise His own chosen rod again to free Nigeria. Remember, Jerry Rawlings killed all culprits and their relations; Rawlings is no longer in power but he is still alive!

luchy34: I watched flinstone's pet (DINO) talking rubbish on ait news hour lastnite, he couldn't even answer properly to a simple question about how he knew that those cars where purchased for minister's personal use, instead he based his facts on sahara reporters.
I wonder where all these ppl witch hunting stella odua were when ppl like fani kayode, Tinubu, and oops I 4got dimeji bankole during their tenures.
When you point one finger @som1 we know what happens, even the bible said he without no sin should cast the first stone.
Many folks are here calling for her resignation, where as thiefs are relaxing in there offices signing bogus contracts and executing elephant projects, why not call for their resignation, why must it be only her nonsense

If they exist, be bold and call them out? There is more wisdom in concentrating on bringing these corrupt individuals to the fore than wasting time defending Stella. Allow the evidence you have on those corrupt people "defend" Stella. I tell you, this is a better and wiser form of defence. Start NOW, don't relent, you are an army already...victory assured!

On second thought, ask her to remain in office, in fact she should not dream of leaving her seat, steal on!. It is for Ndigbo, no other tribe until our international airport is in place and we must not allow other tribes use that airport; it is for Ndigbo only! She should build it in such a way that NO IGBO person would even desire to use other tribes' airports. Gradually, Igbos would not be found mingling with other tribes away from their tribal villages and cities. Then Igbos would be one happy contented people in their own Animal Farm setup.....Okoli family leads & steals today, ogbuefi Nze family's turn 2morrow, on and on. Okanma etua.
Ride on Ndigbo, the tribe that believes in stealing because other tribes steal too, the tribe that does not desire to be a pioneer in doing things right and attracting respect, the tribe that knows how to spray faeces on themselves and delights in the stench with so much pride. Presidency is waiting for us on a platter of gold, we are just good to go. Igbo kwenu, kwezuenuo!
Are we now dancing together, does this make me an Igbo? Keep burying your heads in sand. Rest beckons me.

Eze Promoe: [color=crimson]Your flaws bro.

Your post shows that you are not Igbo, albeit you ostentate such.[/color]

Eze Promoe, what arrogance and delusion! All igbos are not sheep, walking the same track. Please tell me, what makes a person Igbo? Well, sorry to disappoint you. I am one and a different one at that! Thank you, at least you recognize a difference. I am highly honoured. Eziokwu bu ndu, eziokwu bukwanu Chineke. Truth is my watchword always, not tribe, not religion.

FreeGlobe: keep your emotions in check girl. His points are very much valid. Until you produce evidence linking the minister to corrupt practices, STFU

Truth has become emotions? That is why you are one of them, animal without conscience. You are waiting for your own kind of evidence? You will get it when the obvious hits you, free idIot anything, everything for money....trash.

Eze Promoe: [color=crimson]Thanks. I'm not sad because I know Stella is going nowhere[/color]

Have you asked yourself what are the implications of majority of igbos' decision to stand with Stella in the face of this error on her part? What picture does it paint of them? How do they think? Can they be trusted with leadership position? Are they really ready to occupy the highest position in this nation? If what I read everyday here from majority of igbos are anything, then I am very sorry for this my tribe that some are unconsciously or consciously destroying, a tribe appearing to be full of unserious minded people, a people with a behavioural pattern that can only be compared with Animal Farm, no ethics.

God deliver Ndigbo, IJN Amen.

pazienza: Nigeria is not a nation, had never been, and can never be, Ndiigbo via the stupid Ironsi learnt that lesson the bitter way. Nigeria is a jungle, it's all tribes for themselves, it has always been that way, winner takes it all and the loser looks so small. Don't think anyone is deceived by this absurd and ridiculous attempt to paint naija as a nation, when the yorubas inherited the economy and the govt parastatals of this country with the fall of the east, and the north inherited the political power, none of them remembered it was supposed to be a country, rather they quickly filled up the whole space available with their people.

Don't come here to tell me nonsense, Naija is an orphan, Stella must ride on her to get us our own share of the national cake, there is nothing you hypocrites can do about that.

Cutting your nose to spite your face. Deep anger and hopelessness all have reduced you to an animal, if you think you are in an animal farm, so many of us, Igbo like you, are not; we are STILL in Nigeria where sane human beings STILL live and are positive evil will end someday when animals like you become extinct or go to the zoo where you belong and where your ideas will thrive.

Remember, dinosaurs lived years back and are now extinct, monkeys, baboons, etc all have moved away from us to places best suited for animals. In like manner, the remaining animals in human form will very soon not find comfort in the midst of normal human beings who believe and act like they are truly made in God's own image. Your day and time will come!

Niseamaka: Stella is worth over $10 billion. She makes more money from her businesses in the oil sector than she will ever make from the aviation ministry. The vehicles was not bought by her for her personal use. It was bought by NCAA for official uses, meaning the vehicles are properties of the federal government ( aviation ministry ). The prices of the vehicles were inflated by reporters pushing a particular agenda. The real cost of those 2nd hand vehicles are not even up to a million dollars. Past leaders of the country embezzled billions of dollars and some people are making noise here b/c two 2nd hand vehicles were bought for official use.

The wise and intelligent ones amongst us, ndigbo, have read all reports and evidence, etc. and we know for a fact that Stella is dead wrong allowing those cars to be purchased. Please desist from portraying all igbos as insensitive, corrupt, having very low IQ, can do anything and everything just for money and above all half baked. I hope you understand this because majority of us have so far shown here that we are not exposed and lack the ability to hold forth top position with apologies to people like Oby Ezekwesili, Ngo Iweala, Dora Akunyili, late Chinua Achebe who even rejected national award for moral reasons, and so many others.

Ndigbo, lead with a difference and stand vindicated and respected. It is low self esteem that would make a man so clannish even when common sense says NOT THIS TIME!

solomon111: shut up.
What has she done wrong that hasn't be done before or being done in the APC states?
The cars are not even her personal properties.
Whoever becomes aviation minister will use them.

Another depraved mind who wasted some good money on education, he thinks a ministry headed by a particular tribe belongs to that tribe entirely to make or ruin! He so wishes the status quo to remain. Nuisance. No, your type will be 4gotten or will take a valley position when revolution zeros in, bloody or peaceful only God knows!

Does @solomon111 even understand my point? IQ, way too low but one bitter, yet good, experience will upgrade your understanding someday. Nigeria will not remain in this mess 4ever, seeing the height of depravity of minds, cleansing will come gradually or suddenly. Whichever, I pray for it and I am so positive.

Eze Promoe: [color=crimson]Berem and co, are you happy now?[/color]

......and are you sad? If so, why; if not, why? Happy sunday, notwithstanding.

Sincere 9gerian: I thought some propagandists said the cars were bought for N225 million each? What is in that report is N225 million for both. What then is the current market value of the vehicles? Atleast if that is known we'll be able to objectively tell whether the cost was inflated or not.

Now more facts have emerged.
https://www.nairaland.com/1483972/bought-n225m-bulletproof-cars-operations

We know for sure that Tinubu dogs will never accept these explanations. But whether they accept it or not, it is now established that the cars were budgeted for and DUE PROCESS was followed. Those are the MOST IMPORTANT fact.

However, Tinubu internet dogs are free to continue in their lamentations and emotional seizures, like they've always done from day ONE.

Mayb because Tinubu dogs are so used to Tinubu's corrupt practices, they'r always quick at tagging everything corruption, misappropriation,etc. But now that the FACTS are out, they can take back those terms, which we all know are synonymous with their master, Tinubu. When ever the word corruption is mentioned, the first name that comes to mind is Tinubu. He is the greatest corrupt politician of ALL TIME.

Back to the issue at hand, I think the only term that perfectly describes the act of the minister of aviation in authorizing the purchase of those vehicles is the words used by Oby Ezekwesili. She described it as "obscene luxury". Investing that much in 2 vehicles raises in moral questions. And I think ministers should take into account the realities of our time before taking certain decisions so as not to appear insensitive.

Read this: your child, Nnamdi, stole and you don't rebuke him but instead reminded people that your neighbour's child, Seun, is a greater thief. Were you praying and hoping for the day Nnamdi will also steal like Seun?

You agree with Oby Ezekwesili, what have your NL perceived enemies been saying all these days? You understood Oby but did not and does not still understand us because every opposing voice must be Yoruba? If you agreed with Oby, why would you still condemn the yorubas + US who are also with Oby? Unconsciously, you just agreed and disagreed with Oby all in one report. Tribalism is an evil thing indeed and you can free yourself, Oby Ezekwesili spoke well because she is free!

eaglechild: Pls my MD is working for the federal govt of Nigeria so shut it!
I repeat it is NO BIGGIE.

Who told you the issue is using a bulletproof car? I maintain my position about you, sheep brain.......and your federal govt 'bloody' MD parks his bulletproof car in his village while he uses another car to and from work? You left this unanswered. Oh yes, it is NO BIGGIE stealing from federal government of Nigeria, I guess you also eat from your 'bloody' MD's deep pocket. Understand a topic b4 you comment or STFU.

eaglechild: Every minister uses bullet proof cars so what is the big deal?
Even my bloody MD that you've never heard of uses a bullet proof car worth over 50 million.

Another sheep brain here comparing his/her 'bloody' MD in a corporate org with civil service. Ok, the two bulletproof cars are even parked at the minister's house in VGC Lekki while she is in Abuja. Does your 'bloody' MD park his in his village while he uses other car to and from work wherever you may be? Btw, who compelled you to comment?

3Willywilly: Clap for yourself a detribalised Igbo woman, Asika, Asuodu and Ike Nwachukwu are Igbos too so am not surprise, not every body that has eye can see, i'm not Igbo but a neighbour, i'm not a PDP member nor Jonathan fan, but he is better than all the President Nigeria ever had.
There are section of this country that see nothing good in others, they want to head very thing but they are not Good managers but perfect looters that ruin Nigeria Economy, they are not happy that Enugu is now International airport, everything must start from Ikeja and end at Ore then you will see a smile in the face of Yorubas,

Rubbish. You are simply possessed by the evil spirit of tribalism, you need deliverance to reason like a human being. I sense some serious inferiority complex dealing with you with a mix of childishness too. So when the airport is completed, Yorubas will not benefit from it? You are really a clown and your type reasons with his shIt hole......waste of time.

Chima_Adeoye: [size=15pt]Please, anyone with access to the Minister should tell her to beef up her security NOW! There is more than meets the eye to the determination of some people to force the Minister to resign.
From a security point of view, if we as ordinary citizens see all these blackmail against the Honorable Minister to resign, you can imagine the tons of threats she has been receiving from these people.

Like Prof. Dora Akunyili that nearly lost her life to an assassin's bullet for not taking the threats and blackmail to resign seriously, Princess Stella Oduah truly needs a bullet proof car if she likes her life. I hope she is not cowed by these blackmailers to leave her security with loop holes.

These people will surely attempt to take her life after their media blackmail fails, if she is not proactive with her security.
Perhaps that is why they are already so angry now,that she has beat them to it. Who knows?[/size]

Dora Akunyili knew it was the Igbo fake drug dealers that wanted her dead. It was at Onitsha. So you see we don't seem to have shame, anything can happen for money. Whichever way, it is still dem dem

true2god: Any Igboman criticising dis woman must be stupid. Where were all this criticism wen Femi Fani Kayode was the aviation minister? Was he not more corrupt? Whats about the N17billion fraud at the aviation ministry under FFK, whats the EFCC's verdict? Lets stop fooling ourselves, a section of the country wants her out, just as they want GEJ out at all cost cos they are not serving their evil interest.

A section of the country recently said the opening of intl flight at the east will kill local air travel biz, can u all understand their schemes and thinkin? Knowing fully well that Igbos do intl travel a lot and the impact it might have on their region if Igbos travel frm their region without having to take a local flight to Lagos before taking their flight abroad. They want no good for Igbos and r ready to destroy wateva good that seems to be comin to the region.

Let rally behind the minister, we all knw 95% nigeria politicians are corrupt and Nigeria is a jungle state where the 'advantaged' wanna continue holding dowm the 'disadvantaged'.

You are stupId and insane. Are you in anyway implying that because 'your' int. airport began with Stella she must complete it? Which airport belongs to hausa, Yoruba, Ibibio, etc. Ndigbo, umunna na umunne, ebe kanyi si muta akuku nka? Ifere megbukwa onyilom. What mentality is this? The world is laughing at us as we draw this dangerous attention to Igbo tribe as people who can do just about anything without shame because of money. You now think the 'advantaged' Stella will pick you the 'disadvantaged' up? Human beings now reasoning like animals tells me GOD is about to do His strange work in Nigeria!!!!!

@true2god, your god is satan; Truth is his enemy and Truth is GOD. You are not normal and so not worth my trouble. Go seek help first or get ready to be swept away by the imminent wind of change that knows no tribe or religion, just TRUTH.

Okija_juju: Look at this oily soup person calling me pathetic..

I agree I am pathetic, but a pathetic me still has a better life than you, so what does that make you?!



Never quote me again in your life..

Change that name, you are beginning to reason and sound like 'okija juju'.....satanic; names affect the people that bear them positively or negatively. Ka Chineke meziokwu!

3Willywilly: @dbride, I'm not a PDP member, nor am i Fan of Johnathan, but he is a better president than what Nigeria have ever had, there are some section of Yorubas that have vow to pull him down for no reason just because he is Ijaw and to them he is not fit to Lead this country.
You Called that woman a Thief, but why are you hidding your own Thieves even to the extend of Glorifying them, Awolowo,Abiola and Tinubu are they not the greatest Yoruba Thieves, but they are gods to the Yorubas.
For 40yrs Yorubas/Hausa/Fulani conspired and ruin the economy of this country, is that not enough for you people?, Because this woman is trying all her best to improve aviation industry, some Yorubas want to sabotage her by all means, must Yorubas head everything?. Looking at the situation of this country and how her economy was mess up, you will agree with me that Yorubas are not good Managers but Good Looter.

First, I am Igbo, a detribalised Igbo woman who stands on the side of truth no matter whose ox is gored. Even satan cannot fight TRUTH how much less you! Bring up Tinubu's case with evidence and I WILL condemn him too. I have spoken ill of GEJ, I have also spoken well. I believe in standing on the side of TRUTH at all times, nothing to do with tribe or religion unless you decide to use religion to perpetrate evil. I am against you because you are using tribe to justify evil. The sun shines in Nigeria on all tribes and if Stella is mismanaging money, it is Nigerians' money not Igbo, not Yoruba, not hausa. Btw, you igbos condemned muslims for not speaking out against the atrocities of boko haram and neither did they defend it. I see no difference between you and the muslims you so condemned! The muslims are even better because they did not defend but you are here defending Stella! Shame!

I have asked you, if your tribe matters so much to you, why don't you concentrate on attracting RESPECT to it than disrespect and disgrace? Must Igbo loot because Tinubu looted? Why don't you think it wiser for Igbo to CORRECT the ills/mistakes/atrocities that you allege the hausas and yorubas committed? Why would you choose to steal because your perceived enemy stole. This is the height of stupIty and retrogression a man can ever fashion out for himself! Only a foolish man jumps into a well because his perceived enemy jumped into the same well last night; is it just so you can tell him you can jump into wells too? Why must the Igbo think like a sheep, bandwagon mentality. It is a depraved mind that think the way you do.

Bros, you are sick. Go practise what you just spewed up there within your clan first (Okoro family stole, Okafor family will steal next), if your clan still stands tall, happy, united and respected then Nigeria, being a much lager entity, will copy you. Until then, keep quiet for I will not stop condemning this shameful unintelligent analyses of matters like this.

[quote author=3Willywilly]I'm Thanking our Igbo Friends, Please you people should never allow Yorubas to pull down Jonathan he is their main target[/quote



1Willy or 3Willy, STFU if your likes are the ones standing with Jonathan, then you are pulling Jonathan down yourselves. You are defending thieves from Igbo tribe here, how much more do you want to do to tell us that Jonathan is down with thieves too and will go the way thieves go in the end? No, no, Willy you have no brain. There is nothing as defeating as fighting the one who is well ahead of you in matters of the brain. How can a group who defends a thief in GEJ's govt, even wishes the thief to remain in power, be said to be helping GEJ stand? Warped reasoning.

Hear Wisdom: the one who critiques rightly and condemns any corruption in Jonathan's government is the one making him to stand tall because Jonathan is expected to use such to make amends and achieve good success.

1Wily1Wily: I know that Yorubas are not happy because of this International Airport, it have caused mental sickness for you people. Jonathan is your President till 2019

I am damn right, you are half-baked or not baked at all. Bia nwanna, you are disgracing us, your reasoning is sickening. They are not happy because of 'your' international airport? Is that the reason Stella Oduah is messing up? Why would 'your' international airport cause yorubas mental sickness? They have a bigger and better international airport and other local airports in their domain. I really don't get your drift, it is so irrelevant and so childish and definitely not a point a matured mind would raise and make an issue out of. It is senseless. This is the height of illiteracy and lack of exposure! Your likes are beginning to put me to shame.

1Wily1Wily: Katsumoto, she didn't steal because the Cars are not hers, it is not her personal car but that of the ministry

Why don't you go set up your own company and allow your manager buy bulletproof CARS that you don't need. Empty vessel.

sleek_p: Time for other regions to start looting. The Hausas and the Yorubas looted this country for 53yrs so stop the crocodile tears. Its our time to loot so y'all can go about your business. The resources belong to us and we have every reason to take it.
I support this Stella even more now.

In whatever God is planning to bring us out of this mess, your type will be made to disappear to where you came from as you are one of our problems, completely useless.

sleek_p: You morons find specks in other people's eyes while leaving the log in your eyes. Stella is going no where and haters can go hug transformers.
Tinubu is busy buying Lagos up and you're here chatting nonsense. Mtcheeeew!!

Nna, mechie onugi, STFU. Must you spray faeces all over you because your neighbour does it? Must you be an armed robber because your enemy is one and nobody speaks against it? Can you not make up your mind to be a better person at all times irrespective of the wrong others do and get away with? How foolish and immature it sounds to do the wrong things because others do them too! How we become part of the correction if we all copy the wrong things. Above all, if Igbo tribe matters a lot to you, why not aim at making it a tribe to be respected through and through? Consider concentrating on not having specks in your eyes at all.

Stella knows now she is just a LIABILTY to ministry of aviation & GEJ and they will not listen to a tout spewing nonsense, they are wiser than you think....experience they say is the best teacher not your graveyard words above, words spewed without thinking. God sees all thieves but each has his/her day of reckoning. Stella, this is now "An Act Of God".

nkemdilimi: The fact remains that yoribas suffer PHDs (Pull Him/Her Down) syndrome in both corporate and govt circles. The "Igbo Problem" as mentioned in 'The Trouble with Nigeria' will never cease. This is not the first & won't be the last of such tribally motivated onslaughts on Igbos in positions.

What point are you trying to make, it's neither here nor there. Hit the nail on the head please.

chukwudi44: Bros who is her husband

Run, hide your face in shame. I told you to STFU because you are so ignorant. You have just questioned another fact. Please stop displaying your ignorance here. Limit yourself to the not-too-serious issues like celebrities and their family pictures. Those ones don't require you to be intelligent or even wise.

Billyonaire: She deserves those cars, she is one of the best performing Ministers in the Republic. It is under her management and control that the South East now have a functional International Airport. And we need more

It is also under her management and control that over 10 Airports have been remodelled.

I can only advise Stella Oduah to grow thick-skin. I am sure she knows that politics is not for the faint-hearted, Ngozi Okonjo has grown thick skin.

Stella grow thick-skin, we the relavant Nigerians are proud of you, all others can kiss my toes.

Like you, some of my Igbo brothers are so blonde, having the traits of fearless unrepentant half-baked diehard criminals who have seared conscience and would stand with Stella Oduah, all in the name of tribe. Even if you dine and wine with SATAN, when TRUTH stares you in the face, would you not hide, STFU instead? Even satan, who gave you the EVIL thick skin, makes a retreat! Haba

Do not compare Okonjo Iweala with your greedy Stella Oduah, there's a difference between fresh tomato and rotten tomato.

@chukwudi44, please display more of your ignorance; where are you, empty shell? Umuigbo, where are those of you who kept defending this wicked woman, greedy phooool of a minister. There are more atrocities to be revealed and I know God will do it and soon too. Advice: stop defending anybody on the basis of tribe because you end up looking like the one you are defending; follow TRUTH at all times for that puts you on the right track with GOD!

Seun Osewa, I 4see your NL being taken over by chaff and substance is slowly filing out. Yeah light and darkness cannot dwell together, the same with truth and false, same with men and boys, foolish and the wise, mature and the immature, etc. even the man with weed in his whole system wants to comment! LOL...substance don dey port o!

Lexusgs430: Why does the deputy governor and her Government, not provide jobs for them ? Does she not know the amount and level of employment the music industry has provided across board?
If dressing almost nu.de is what sells, that is what we will keep getting !!!

Is that not a job? If the majority of them in that field came together against dancing naked, then their employers would respect their opinion. They have mothers and sisters but the women just assume it is the only way to entertain because they were mostly picked up from "down the ladder" selling themselves!

Shabaranks did it and sentenced himself to Obscurity. Why wont women use their brains, the men ALWAYS wear their designers T-shirts fully clad in music videos and the women go naked clustering around the men like cheap flies over a dead animal, very cheap swag, very cheap videos, no creativity.....always men fully and neatly dressed, women almost naked and twerking all over the men...CHEAP things adding nothing to their personalities. Thank you deputy governor, long overdue.

Umuigbo, Igbos, over to you. @chukwudi44, please wake up and defend either the dead or the living, choose whoever, they are all igbos. This is yet another defence job to do......Igbos are again involved, this time it is Igbo against Igbo. I am curiously watching to see how this one plays out. One has already accused Yoruba without reading the story......tribalism is a demon!
