Sun is a useless sensational newspaper fit for the dustbin.
How can Sambo run without obtaining a form from the PDP for the presidency

I'll definitely buy my next car from you.


I am inspired

loverob:
Two directors of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) – Mr Harrison Onwon, Director, Legal Services, and Mr Jimoh Gbejule, Acting Director, Finance and Supply - have been suspended indefinitely by the Board of the commission.


Sunday Sun learnt that the Board took the decision at its meeting on Thursday, during which it resolved that the trio be suspended for illegally orchestrating the transfer of US$20 million (about N3 billion) from its offshore account in Union Bank United Kingdom to an unauthorized account in First Bank, also in the UK.

Nigerians should realize that the problem of the country is not between[b] the North and the South[/b], but the between the Corrupt and the Oppressed [/b]Nigerians.
Mr Onwon and Gbejule are both [b]Niger Deltans, who are stealing from their own people.

OP

ABSOLUTELY nothing wrong with the video .

NOTHING WRONG !

Specialist900:
So DOKPESI don lose work. Lol

SapeleGuy:
Niger Delta native or not the underlying issues have not been addressed. EFCC should investigate the amnesty because the thing was a complete fraud and a total travesty.

So you want EFCC to investigate thesame Amnesty given to Niger Delta Militants managed by Niger Deltans?

Dog eating Dog here man !.

Nobody is actually fighting for anybody, Militants are criminals taking advantage of the neglects of the Niger delta to create anarchy and line their pockets from oil bunkering.

With all the money Asari and his likes made from the Crisis, How many people from Niger Delta have they awarded scholarship to ?

How come Jomo Gbomo, has not sent out mails for some time !

AjanleKoko:
Great news.
The 94 class remains our best products to date. Keshi, Siasia, Amokachi, Finidi, Amuneke, and now Emenalo, all doing well in the coaching profession.

You said it all

Amos Adamu  has been suspended for 3 years by FIFA


Nigeria's Amos Adamu has been suspended from all footballing activity by Fifa's Ethics Committee for three years and fined $10,000.

Tahiti's Reynald Temarii was suspended for one year and fined $5,000 by the committee.

The move follows allegations that the pair asked for money in return for voting on World Cup hosting rights.

It means they will not be able to vote on which countries will host the 2018 and 2022 World Cup.

Adamu released a statement protesting his innocence and vowing to fight the ruling.

"I am profoundly disappointed with the Ethics Committee's findings and had honestly believed I would be exonerated of any charges by now," he said.

"I am innocent of all the charges levelled against me by the Ethics Committee and I completely refute the decision they have made.

"I will be lodging a full appeal against it with immediate effect."

Four former executive members - Slim Aloulou of Tunisia, Mali's Amadu Diakite, Ahongalu Fusimalohi of Tonga and Botswana's Ismael Bhamjee - all received sanctions from Fifa.

Bhamjee was banned for four years, Diakite and Fusimalohi for three and Aloulou for two and all four were fined $10,000.

But the committee dismissed accusations of collusion between Spain/Portugal and Qatar, who are bidding to host the 2018 and 2022 World Cups respectively.

Pay who?

Ignore the Iranians joo

@homerac7

I love your view and patriotism, but unfortunately reality is far from that.  I wholly support the idea of the NYSC but disagree with the implementation as it were today.

If a community wants some people to come serve them for a year, they should provide the BASIC amenities for human beings.


FYI I served in the north almost a decade ago[i]{ and i stayed and served for the whole year}[/i] and you can imagine how this person will cope when the heat wave starts or when the harmattan season kicks in.  Are you saying the LGA chairman lives in a house like this ?

To me, you have to be alive, in order to be patriotic.

This corper's  Lodge is a NO NO

nadneth:
What is tribal with this post? Some of you guys are so tribalistic. Ok,lets change the character to Emeka(not real name) is from imo state(real state). Hope yall are now satisfied?

@nadneth
I wish you navigate more on Nairaland to understand the motive of the OP.

Olu (Not real name) from Osun State(Real State) {was this necessary to convey the message}

@OP
When i finished reading the story, i thought there would be part2 where the real disgrace will be told.

Olu (Not real name) from Osun State(Real State) , just went through the regular JCC induction in Utah. This is not a big deal OP

ok,

Ndidi will announce ASO EBI very soon !

Pls don't stay there. I won't allow my dog to stay there !

If you have some money rent an apartment otherwise go back home.

I hope SIASIA is watching  .  ANYTHING short of this will not be tolerated by the male team.

In AFRICA  we should be no1 SOCCER ( MALE and FEMALE, )

[size=13pt]Coach DO YOUR JOB  and STOP DANCING


Make the necessary CHANGES, this is the FINAL[/size]

waoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooH

3-1


we need the bench  now, to take complete control of this game.  3-1 is not a comfortable scoreline

It's now time for the coach to do her work !

.

I saw this coming !

Picture, says more than a 1000 words

@Kawakazi

Are u tryn 2 b sarcastic? Mrs Ndi's sack is fait accompli. Your arguments are self defeating, just imagine that the woman is enjoying whilst many people are in debt due to her dereliction of duty (that is criminal negligence), she was literally in bed with bank MD's and Stockbrokers. Anyways, if you must know, KPMG and Oyebode did not sack her, the Securities Exchange did (and its being manned by an Ibo woman).

Na only you understand him jare.  He is towing the line of Dapo

what a man can do,

This guy should be arrested, tried, tied to a stake and shot.

Bastard !

MrPrsdent:
shocking

these 9ja scammers get away with this all the time because Nigeria law enforcement does nothing to stop them

Please spare 5 minutes to read the link.

The lady should be arrested by the Nigerian Government. She willingly agreed to sponsor act of terrorism and economic sabotage.

She is the CRIMINAL here

hmm

Jakumo:
Akin, my observations about the statistical over-representation of the Igbo tribe in the engineering sciences are based on my having had the privilege of reviewing thousands of resumes submitted by job-seeking Nigerian graduates, and also my involvement in the follow-up selection interviews conducted to sort out the pretenders from the true scholars.

To answer your question directly, my presumption about the genetic basis of Igbo intellect is grounded largely in the fact that such massive numbers of Igbo men DOMINATE the engineering disciplines, while candidates from Nigeria's other tribal demographics, even when grouped together, constitute a distinct minority in those specific technical subjects.  Whether this enormous academic specialization disparity is due to nature or nurture will likely remain an intriguing mystery for some time to come. 

By the way, the multiple degree holder described in your first post here is a living national treasure who, as time goes on, has the potential to positively and profoundly impact the advancement of Nigeria AND his adopted homeland.

In as much as the fact presented above could be true , I disagree with your presumption of the basis of the fact.

People are influenced by their environment. For the basis of my Argument I will divide Nigerian Environment into 3 ( the SW ; The East+Niger Delta and the North)

The examples of success in the South West is predominantly in the Banking , Judiciary , Construction Engineering Sectors, IT,Medical Sector,Business
In the The East + Niger Delta, the predominant influence is the Oil and Gas Sector, Medical Sector
In the north , The predominant Influence is on Politics, Millitary, Civil Service ect


Bases on the fact presented above, It is normal that a young Nigerian growing up In any Part of these part of Nigeria to be influenced based on what is termed success in that part of the Country.

For a young Male Nigerian growing up in the East or ND, He will most likely want to work in Shell , Mobil, etc, so right from Secondary school , his mind is tuned to that.
To work in these industry, you must study one of the Engineering courses and also do so with VERY good grades.
Getting into the competitive Engineering disciplines requires good secondary school O level result.

So as to achieve the Ultimate AIM, the Child is tuned to scoring Good grades from SS1 till 500 Level in the University.

So I submit that performance of the Igbo guy , is largely driven by the environment, rather than the genes.

I would be interested in this study, though to ascertain by assumptions .


Maybe comparing a group of Lagos Born and Bred IGBO guys to the Owerri/Onitsha Born and Bred IGBO guys
