ddippset:
besides he's your hero of democracy not mine. My heróes are the Nigerian people who United in kicking out the man that would have been the death of this nation. The man was running around bribing obas and Chiefs with dollars which belonged to Nigeria, the man sent his wife and militants to capture rivers state by any means necessary, the man's party manufactured millions of votes in the south South and east, that's the man you call your hero of democracy simply because he was roundly beaten in an election and he didn't fight! I spit on you and your hero.

I ain't gat much words for you now. There's a whole lot of events to play in due time. Afterall this administration is still young. When your own hero starts displaying his daftness as well, we'll talk about it.

ddippset:
more shame to Jonathan. Cloned voters cards were used to kick out the commander in chief Jonathan under his very big nostrils. And when they called him 'clueless' and incompetent to run 150 million people, you kicked!

What useless statement are you making? So you don't like the peace you're enjoying in the country? Who told you he was not aware of all the fraud that was wrought in that election? If he had refused to give in, its still goons like you who would have been opening your hypocritical mouth saying that he is power lust. So you better just shut your anterior hole you call a mouth and address the issue at hand without dragging our hero of democracy into this issue.

dialfa:

Guy no worry weda rooney score or not, na still man score. It's team play. As long as we win, that's all.

Gr8amechi:
Yes saraki is impeachable, reasons are over 80% of all our senators are corrupt and a simple blackmail using the EFCC will make any of them do your bidding, have you asked yourself why none of them has commented on the issue in ground since??

Lol. I think I'll agree with you in that regards.

They won't be able to impeach him because they lack the numbers. APC is already divided in the house. Saraki's faction together with PDP has more numbers than the Unity forum. So they'll not succeed at all.

Sincerely, I believe there's still so much Melo drama to be displayed by the APC cos everyone there is just power lust and that really spells bad for them and the country.

Indeed this is an anastomosis of corruption. Just imagine corruption trying to probe corruption.

Yet some persons won't see that this is a broad daylight political witch-hunt.

Amid the controversy generated by the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) order for the arrest of Senate President Bukola Saraki, the police said, yesterday, they were yet to receive a bench warrant to effect it. “I am yet to see one”, the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Mr. Solomon Arase, said while responding to a Sunday Vanguard inquiry.
The CCT, headed by Justice Danladi Umar, had, in a ruling on Friday, ordered the IGP and other security agencies to arrest Saraki and produce him before it tomorrow (Monday) to face a 13-count charge bordering on corruption and false declaration of assets. The order and subsequent bench warrant followed Saraki’s failure to appear before the tribunal for arraignment.
The CCT order was in negation of an Abuja Federal High Court order, on Thursday, stopping the tribunal from commencing the trial of the Senate President. While stopping the trial, the High Court summoned the Federal Ministry of Justice to appear before it tomorrow (Monday) to show cause why Saraki should be prosecuted.
The court equally summoned the CCT Chairman, Umar; the Chairman of the Code of Conduct Bureau, Mr. Sam Saba; as well as a Deputy Director in the Office of the Attorney General of the Federation, Mr. M.S. Hassan, who signed the charge sheet upon which Saraki is to be prosecuted at the CCT, to appear before it.
“The police are yet to receive the Code of Conduct Tribunal bench warrant”, ordering the Senate President’s arrest, a statement by the Force Public Relations Officer (FPRO), ACP Adebisi Kolawole, also said, yesterday. Meanwhile, senior lawyers, who spoke to Sunday Vanguard, yesterday, faulted the order of Justice Umar.

Don't mind that Burutai that was talking out of so much excitement. I never took that to heart at all.

olu4life:
Sincerely u couldn't have said it better. Decided to review CV of some friends recently, couldn't help but laugh. Had to correct it for them. And most don't even send cover letter when sending their CV, why is that? I hope they correct themselves

Bro please I'll like to know what a cover letter is. Thank-you.

I don't need Prophet Elias to tell me that Oga Tinu is behind this.

TonyeBarcanista:
This is just a temporal setback. The PDP is restructuring and shall rise again come 2019.


Power to the People

Hmm... I pray they bounce back o just that its not feasible because everyone is already deserting the party in search of greener pastures (APC).

Last week I even read that the former party chairman wants to form another party with some PDP big wigs. So I'm not seeing the ex-ruling party resurrecting in the nearest future.

Hahaha... I guess there's no more money to embezzle and run the party with anymore. Issorite.

PS: PDP funny sha. Playing politics with their own staffs.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has
reopened investigations into the Nigerian Immigration
Service recruitment tragedy in 2014, which led to the death
of 19 young job seekers, The PUNCH learnt on Monday.
Operatives of the anti-graft agency on Monday quizzed the
immediate past Comptroller General of the NIS, Mr. David
Paradang, for over seven hours. Paradang was asked
questions about the N555m said to have been collected
from applicants who participated in the 2014 exercise.
The Senate under David Mark as president had in 2014
probed the tragedy but the report of the investigative
committee did not see the light of the day before the
seventh senate ended.

The PUNCH learnt that the EFCC invited Paradang to appear
before it to provide explanation on how the money collected from job seekers in March 2014 was spent.
A top operative of the commission told one of our correspondents on the condition of anonymity that the NIS under Paradang and those who played crucial roles in the ill-fated recruitment only declared N45m as the money collected.The source said that investigations conducted by operatives of the commission revealed that the applicants paid N600m.

It was added that top officials of the Ministry of Interior and
the Civil Defence, Fire, Immigration and Prison Services
Board, only declared N45m as the amount collected.

Paradang was said to have arrived at the Idiagbon House
headquarters of the EFCC at Wuse II, Abuja, by 10 am and
was taken straight to the interrogation room for a
interrogation session that lasted seven hours.

As of 5pm when our correspondents filed this story,
Paradang was still responding to questions from EFCC
operatives probing the alleged fraud. The source said, “Operatives of the commission are interrogating the former Comptroller General, Immigration, Mr. David Paradang.
“The man was invited and he came on his own and he was
immediately ushered into the interrogation room. No, he
was not arrested.

“Operatives are interrogating him in relation with the
Immigration recruitment exercise that led to the death of
many innocent Nigerians in 2014. “The commission is probing the disappearance of N600m that was received from the applicants.

“There is this report that those who carried out that exercise declared only N45m out of the N600m they collected. We want to know where the remaining N555m is”
The PUNCH also learnt that the EFCC might invite the
immediate past Minister of Interior, Mr. Abba Moro, and
other top officials of the interior ministry in relation with the
issue.

The Head of Media and Publicity of the EFCC, Mr.Wilson
Uwujaren, confirmed to our correspondent on the telephone
that Paradang was at the EFCC. “He was invited and he came,” he said and refused further comments.

Before the May 15, 2014 tragedy, a recruitment committee
headed by S.D Tapgun, the Director/Secretary of the board,
had recommended that the recruitment exercise be shifted
to either the last weekend in March or second week in April,
2014 for proper arrangement to be made.

The recruitment committee also proposed that N5m should
be budgeted for hiring of ambulances and buying of water.
At its last meeting held on March 7, 2014, the committee
raised a memo to Moro on its recommendations, but the
memo was ignored.

The 16 members of the committee were drawn from the
CDFIPB, NIS, Ministry of Interior, and Drexel Tech Nigeria
Limited, which managed the online portal for the recruitment exercise.

The members include Tapgun (CDFIPB); JaeI Kpatuvvak,
Deputy Director (A&P), CDFIPB; Okhamera A. I., Asst.
Director (Admin), CDFIPB; Bello Torankawa, Asst. Director
(A&P), CDFIPB; Hamid AbduII-Iamid, Asst. Director (IMM),
CDFIPB; Aduku, M. M., Asst. Director (D&GP), CDFIPB; and
Oyedeji, T.V., CIS (APU) , NIS.

Others are Abubakar A. A., Interior ministry; Chukwu O. C.,
Rep. Asst. Director (F&A), CDFIPB; I. M. Makama, LA,
CDFIPB; Nasiru Yusuf, ICT Unit, CDFIPB; . Shehu
Mohammed, Deputy Director (D &GP), CDFIPB; Mukah O.
S., Chief Admin. Officer (FFS); Theodore Maiyaki, Drexei
Tech.; Wiiiiam Butau, Drexel Tech; and Abioye Bankole,
Drexei Tech.

The committee budgeted Nll2,38l, 200 for the exercise to
cover Duty Tour Allowance for immigration officials, cost of
radio and television announcements, cost of setting
examination questions, cost of digital printing machine,
marking scanners and contingency (five per cent of the total costs).

Though each applicant paid N1000 for the online registration, no money was released to the recruitment committee by the Interior ministry. The committee met with officials of Drexel Tech Nigeria Limited and asked the firm to provide funds for the recruitment because there was no provision for the exercise in the 2014 budget.

The firm released N45m on March 12 to enable the aptitude
test to hold as scheduled. Following the recruitment tragedy, former President Goodluck Jonathan directed the ministry to refund the N1,000 to the applicants, but the directive was not carried out by the ministry.

The career of Parradang ended on August 21, 2015 when he
was suspended by the Federal Government for illegally
recruiting 1,600 personnel into the service in May, 2015
without the approval of the Civil Defence, Fire, Immigration
and Prisons Services Board, which has the statutory power
to recruit.

He was said to have recruited 700 Assistant Inspectors of
Immigration and 900 Immigration Assistants III, towards the end of Jonathan’s tenure. He was subsequently replaced by Martin Abeshi by President Muhammadu Buhari a week later.

Though the Plateau State Governor, Simon Lalong, visited
the Presidential Villa to plead with Buhari, the sacking of the suspended CG indicated that the visit was not successful.

Lwkmd.. This news funny walahi. They should continue. Very soon EFCC will probe them.

mascot87:
What evidences do u have to show that Amechi is corrupt. Don't base ur judgement on propaganda & media hype. He is a saint just like Donald Duke expect proven otherwise.

Haaa! Seriously brother don't go there. It might interest you to know that I'm from rivers state born and bred there. So I'm not talking based on any media bullsh*t.

dckng16:
He would have been president after yaradua demise.

But the PDP has never had the interest of Nigerians at heart. That's the painful truth. I'm a PDP supporter but the rot in the system is so grave which I and other concerned Nigerians were alien to. However GMB is enlightening is about it. Hence I'm really trying hard to look beyond tribal differences and support him and see that Nigeria can have the best.

mascot87:
I wanted to type holy. You should be intelligent enough to get that.

Whatever!! BTW Can you compare the development both of them caused in their different states? Don't forget that Duke was nominated to be VP to Yar'adua before GEJ, but refused because he said he was gonna be used as a stooge by the obj led PDP as at that time. That's integrity speaking and not like Amaechi.

Freemanan:
Let's be realistic, Amaechi will have a stake in this government But that doesn't mean the administration is not on course for change. The only this is their effectiveness!

In that case, I'll just cross my hands and see how the effectiveness plays out.
