davereal: Nice one EFCC...Instead of walking the streets of Nigeria with CVs looking for jobs, it is better to start looking for warehouses of past government officials so one can become a comfirm whistleblower and blow sharp sharp. Because 5% of wetin these politicians dey steal go pass 50 years of earning salary I swear...
Hold your wise long Ohh cos these recovered loots are going to be relooted .
stephanie11: The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has recovered seventeen exotic vehicles in a warehouse of the former Comptroller General of Customs, Abdullahi Dikko Inde located at Nnamdi Azikwe Street, Kaduna.

Riddler32: Please i am not hating oh!! On what visa status (student, immigrant or visiting) was he able to open and own account in England? Where did he get a letter of introduction to open the said account because it is prerequisites to operate one?
My 2 cents
Def not a bank but high street money transfer agent
The Limpopo maestro, just like his colleagues in the music industry is not one to pass off an opportunity to flaunt his blessed lifestyle.
Five star music singer, Kcee shared a footage of a recorded transaction he made while making a withdrawal at a bank in London. The footage shows the singer receiving stacks in various denominations from the cashier.
Kcee shared the video on his social media platforms and used it in announcing his grand entrance into the UK. He however turned off the comment on the video... cause of world people...
thereturnoflucy: A bus driver of NNPC in Lagos state has ran into trouble after he took company bus to his lovers house to flex and the bus got stolen by robbers.
The driver, Wasiu Aliyu was arraigned on Monday on two counts of stealing in an Ikeja Magistrate’s Court.
The father of two who hails from Ilorin, Kwara state woke up at his lover’s house on Assfood Street, Oriola, Alapere, Lagos only to discover that a Toyota Hiace which is worth N23m had been stolen.
Aliyu informed the police that he had been driving the stolen bus for over three years, and had no hand in the stealing.
He said, “ At about 8pm on January 21, I went to my girlfriend’s house in Oriola to pass the night. A man came to wake me up around 4am that he saw some boys inside the bus.
“Before I got to where the bus was, they had left with it. It was a mistake that I parked the bus on the street because there is no security there.”
A police prosecutor, Inspector Benedict Aigbokhan, who brought Mr. Aliyu before the court, said he had allegedly committed an offence, which contravenes sections 285 (1) and 409 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2011.
Mr Aliyu pleaded not guilty and elected summary trial.
The presiding magistrate, Mrs. O.A. Akokhia, admitted him to bail in the sum of N1m with two sureties in like sum while the case was adjourned till April 18, 2017 for mention.
Foolish Police . Instead of them to investigate properly b4 wasting tax payers money on fruitless case . There is no proof to day the driver stile the car even if the driver did arrange for the bus to be stollen there is no evidence to show.the NNPC should go to thier insurance company and claim for thier loss and sack the driver if he is not allowed to take the bus home.
kopell: I beg. many of us here are working class people with our kobo kobo project that take us couple of years to get to the stage they are. Na only Naija people they load those kind of money in bank and bury some of them in their houses without job or any business
Kobo-kobo = transit verb,used in hiding large sums of money

stephanie11: The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has concluded arrangements to prosecute a Deputy Director of the Independent Electoral Commission, INEC in Akwa Ibom State, and former Electoral Officer in Rivers State, Gogo Anderson Waribo, for his alleged collection of N16million from the infamous N23billion Diezani Allison Madueke’s during the 2015 general election bribery funds.
Waribo was arrested by operatives of the anti-graft agency following intelligence report that some INEC officers conspired with some staff of Fidelity Bank to defraud the Federal Government of several millions of naira. Although, he has consistently denied involvement in the fraud, investigation revealed that the INEC Deputy Director’s name is on the list of beneficiaries of the money. He is alleged to have received the sum of N16 million through his First Bank account on March 27, 2015. Waribo allegedly gave N5 million from the N16 million to Peter Popnen, an ex- INEC official.
The suspect will be arraigned in court as soon as investigation is completed.
As soon as investigation is completed Ok why not complete your investigation b4 releasing names of accused ? Are you not indirectly telling his conivers to zap ? EFCC playing with Nigerians since 18BC

kenonze: Double Parking Double parking is illegally parking next to another vehicle that is properly parked in a stall or on the street. When you park this way, you prevent drivers from leaving their parking spaces and stall the flow of traffic. If all parking spaces are full, try to find one farther away. Double parking is a traffic violation punishable by fine.
You just prove my point this is not double parking . There don't have to be a next vehicle for a car to be double parked . Double parking is parking more than 50cm from a kerb Ie parking in middle of the road .
3strikes: I just want to use this opportunity to thank everyone who fought tirelessly on this thread to fight fraud and fraudsters........pls know that your efforts are not in vain. ......its been over 10 months now and no new cases of fraud. This should count for something and you should all be proud of yourself. You sanitized the thread.
ebosie11: Enugu State Board of Internal Revenue, after obtaining Exparte Orders from the Enugu State High Court, sealed eight banks in the state for refusal to remit Withholding Taxes worth about N1billion into the coffer of the State Government.
Mr. Emeka Odo Chairman(on behalf of Esir),Enugu State Board of Internal Revenue gave reasons why the 8 banks were sealed off.....
Eight banks were this morning sealed by the Enugu State Government for failure to remit about ₦1, 000,000,000.00 (One Billion naira) in taxes to the coffer official the state government.
The state government, through the Enugu State Board of Internal Revenue (ESBIR) on Feburary 6 and 16, 2017, obtained Exparte Orders from the Enugu State High Court to distrain the affected banks. The Board began the enforcement exercise this morning, and I wish to state that it was very successful.
The eight banks are Access Bank PLC, Stanbic IBTC Bank, Skye Bank, Union Bank, Unity Bank, Heritage (Enterprise) Bank, Keystone Bank, and Sterling Bank.
The branches of the affected banks in the State, which are now under lock and key will remain locked until they pay to the state government the taxes they have collected on its behalf.
The government has been encouraging individual tax payers and tax agents to comply voluntarily by paying their taxes promptly. We have reformed the process of remittances of government revenues to make it easy for banks to pay their taxes like other corporate citizens.
In the past one year we have written the affected banks severally and held meetings with them on the subject matter but they would rather hold onto government funds illegally.
The action of the affected banks has been denying the State government of the funds it needs to execute its developmental programmes that would impact positively on the lives of the people.
The eight banks have a combined branch network of 36 branches in Enugu metropolis and the neighbouring towns of Agbani and Ituku Ozalla.
The sealing of the banks is the first phase of the enforcement exercise on major companies and institutions to ensure that they perform their civic obligation to the state government.
We can no longer allow the banks to behave like corporate outlaws, moreso, when it is on record that the Withholding Taxes (WHT) which the state government is demanding that Banks remit to its coffer, have already been deducted by the banks from the interests that they pay on deposits to their customers.
The banks have no business holding onto these taxes they collected on behalf of the government.
The present administration in Enugu State has laid out an ambitious plan to upgrade critical infrastructural facilities in the State. These people-oriented programmes need to be adequately funded urgently, because the state government is in a hurry to deliver on all its campaign promises to the people.
We are all aware that revenue allocation from the Federation Account to the state government has been dwindling. The government expects banks and other financial institutions to join hands with it to harness its internally generated revenues.
In view of the above, we call on the people of the state, especially customers of the affected banks to be calm and see the action as a measure to enable the government serve them better as their monies in the affected banks are safe.
The Federal Government need to set-up ambulances during the return leg as more of such occurrences re bound when it finally dawns on them that they have been booted out.
Wenger has been killing his Nigerian fans in the last decade.
Bizibi: I love manufacturing but still need to do some research on both fed and state government functions on policy making relating to Biz.so that one can take precautions to avoid spending above.......you know money worshipping in nigeria is something else.
\yes thats true, corruption everywhere.They will fustrate you in all ways.N400k was added to my clearing bills of a container from nowhere and thier delays incurred dumorage, these guys are blood suckers.
Bizibi: my bro take your time,look fr your the right company to use abroad to run your company before spending...... That is the option fr any bizmen in Nigeria and that was the decision I took this year. If bringing in big investors,you change their name to avoid leeches from govt officials.we just pray this year is good for all of us
Yesoo, Im holding my money atm,Im sticking to importation right now via the Mrs cos she is in Nigeria so its all good,But I wish i could venture into manufacturing and make an Impact.But like you said, lets see what this year brings.
Bizibi: you would have taken your time before venturing into it,Biz like this you will need experts from Asia or Europe to partner with and yes govt policy is very significant to bizmen,I think it has reached a point were state government can have some powers to protect businesses with their policies, I'm tired of waiting fr approval from abuja before anything starts,that is the reason why we keep hammering on federalism. It will be easier fr isolated giants like gazprom and sinopec to invest without headaches.
I thought of bringing in an investor but the politics you will play alone before they settle down........investors are willing to come but the system we are running is making things difficult
You my friend is not far frm the truth,I have thought of it and sadly I might stop but I was lucky same company do other machines so Im diverting. toothpick idea was good as bamboo was almost free but hey.
AntiWailer: so all consumable products must be imported ?
import rice, chicken , turkey etc.
I am done with this discussion.
Mr Man stop putting words in my mouth, where did I say or use teh word MUST All Im saying is for the allowance of mkt force to determine what we buy and sell..Today we buy Nigerian nails cos we have imported teh nail machines into Nigeria and its cheap to import,nails made in NIgeria are cheaper than those imported from china so we are buying Nigerian made nails, so it will be for other goods and services if we allow a free economy.
mufutau55: Good info. But the Legendary Mr. Trumpcoat who happens to be a friend has been dead for over one year now. The family did not want it broadcasted then. But Gbadexy is still here and have been supplying a lot of Nairalanders including myself.
Hajji M.
Eyah RIP to him, no wonder we nor see him brake light, it is well.I need to update my iPad. in other news, the word kobo-kobo is almost done being put into the oxford dictionary.
Reference: No country, I repeat, no country except perhaps China generates the foreign exchange it needs by exports alone. Most countries depend heavily, some up to 50 percent of their budgets on foreign investment, and how will you attract it if you are not ready to trade. Who will invest if they cannot get their money out and back. Stupid people playing blind politics and dying in poverty.
AntiWailer: I dnt know what u qant to get from this but my submission is simple.
We should not be importing
Tooth pick
Rice
Plastic
And other useless things . Period.
You are missing the point, talking is cheap, are you and your likes willing to invest N15-20 million of your money to produce toothpick for Nigerians to buy @N200 naira a pack? its a simple question, and stop calling it useless thing, as far as there is a consumer mkt for a product it not useless however simple and small it might seem.
Bizibi: you will operate at a loss in a short term but it will take years to even get a break even point before you start making profits. The macro environment is kinda harsh,scared of setting up factories.except you partner with experts to grow the Biz fr one.
Thank you,Im glad you saw this from a person point of view,But there are ways I can make teh day I brake even come fru,this has to do with good government policies.They can help reduce the pain in money I will go fru in Nigeria.They can bring in juicy incentives like the Chinese are doing.
So Please people of Nigeria when you hear importation of toothpick dont just think cos its cheap its o ne hell of auselss propaganda tool, its actually very expensive to set up a toothpick factory, to be honest, its easier to set up a clothing factory and Nail plant than to set up a toothpick machine The nail machine is actually cheaper cos its just one machine. toothpick is up to 7 machines in some instance. We need to be guided to waht we hear and say. @ AntiWailer, where was we
