When yorubas portray before their elders are they portraying before God? Give honour to whom honour is due...

haryomikun:
We all serve the same God dude.... So what u mean to say is the God of the Muslims and ifa worshippers is different from the God of the Christians??

We don't worship d same God cause God isn't the author of confusion.

HOW ABOUT CHURCH BUSINESS

what of mosque which imans used as a hide out to carry out their lucrative business of Wife snatching,under-age pregnancy,herdsmen and terrorism..

SeverusSnape:
Many imams and pastors are in the habit of diabolically snatching people's wives, But that's not enough reason to murder him. There are oodles of fishes in the ocean.

Pls remove pastors from this..

SeverusSnape:
Can you see the incompetent nitwits?

During the last administration, Salaries were paid on or before 25th of every month, But since the coming of this dullardic administration, They are now being paid on the second week of the next month (you may call it 45th if you want). Now isn't that "change"?? - Negative change.

These days, I pity those people (including my acquaintances) in the civil service, Buhari has turned them to chronic debtors.

LIES.. Jonathan paid salaries 25th/26th of election eve and before and after the eve there is nothing as such..

chichriso:
Acting according to former administration's script

If we begin to blame them for our woos, your type will still wail. No pass administration meant well for dis country except for one whom his deadly party never allowed to live to complete his tenure..

OLADD:
Jona reduced the PMS price from N97 to N87 but Lai Mohammed and APC cried blue murder. Today, while in govt, all APC-led administration can do was a N2 reduction! What a scam!

I believe u to be more educated than dis but to be frank, I am totally disappointed in u. In as much as u decide to toll opposition lane shouldn't make u to be a sadist. GEJ met PMS at N65 per litre,he hiked it to about N150 per litre when a barrel is sold at $120 or there about in the global oil market, which he was forced to reduced it to N97 and later N87 per litre and did nothing with his cannibal economic team when oil was sold at $45 per barrel, and now PMB inherited it with oil being sold at $45 per barrel and has rolled out plans to reduce the price in the first quarter of 2016 in which oil today is sold at $49 per barrel globally. Which means when we get to second and third quarter of 2016, PMS is likely to be sold below N40 per litre. Pls criticise and wail when and where necessary.

Let Olisa Metuh and PDP tell or show us where it is written both in electoral act and in 1999 constitution as amended;In case of death of candidate with the highest vote before the declaration of a winner by electoral umpire, let the candidate with the second highest vote be declared winner, then we will take una serious... lawless people.

maupe:
This is totally unacceptable. The AGF should have called for fresh elections. So as to have a fair and free dispensation, a fresh election is the only thing that should have sufficed. If INEC wants to be taken serious, they should discountenance the AGF's interpretation and announce a day for Fresh elections. This is Fraud.

This case is self explanatory cause in the case of omeha and Amechi,the then opposition parties didn't go to court because Amechi didn't contest against them but was asked to be sworn in..

laurel03:
Ds is what I expect our pastors to be doing instead of wasting poor people money on luxury tinz.... They should build cheap and affordable amenities...

but inams should go ahead and build mega dead traps like the one we have in mecca.. sycophants.. door to pastorship is wide open.

tablu:
me and my future wife have agreed to sign MOU for exclusive breast feedin of our children for 2yrs each if not no marriage.Becos such kind of children will have brains like that of einstein....

Two years? No na that's too much and the baby will be malnutrition . The maximum should be one year in a rare cases o.

For first timers, exclusive can be say to be a specific period of time a mother is expected to breast feed her child nothing but breast milk and the minimal period is said to be six (6)months for single births but mothers with twins are encouraged to do at list three (3) months exclusive.
A mother is expected to initiate breast feeding one (1) hour after birth but it is not encouraging to initiate breast feeding when the mother is unconscious especially mothers that gave birth through C.S.
Exclusive is very encouraging cause it thus protect the child from eating contaminated foods that can possibly lead to sickness and breast milk contains 80.1% of water plus necessary nutrient the child needs to build self immune from birth to 6 months of age; breast milk is the first immune the child gets and it forms another bond(physical) between mother and child.
Mother's are also advice not to introduce water during exclusive on lease on rare cases of improper flow of breast milk of which mothers with such experience are advice to introduce glucose water(glucose solution) in order not to starve the child and when she observed that her breast milk has regain normal flow,she is advice to stop the glucose water and continue on exclusive..

B69U:
Everybody here commenting without introduction. Experience have taught us here on nairaland that any person that opens with am igbo or am ibibio or am ijaw is a propaganda peddling yorubastard.


I applaud your desperation and deception but you are not from Akwa Ibom and neither are you in Imo. Vaga-bond!

Truth is bitter honestly,i know you are pained but that wouldn't make me downgrade to your level it signifies stupidity.. I didn't say it to please nor make u believe and I expected you to address nor counter the issue I raised and not to attack me stupidly,as u reside in niger republic and know what is happening in Emirate hotel,Yar dua drive,new owerri, imo state.. I will love to see your back.

This Biafra of a thing has generated enough heat more than I expected.. I am from Akwa Ibom but was born,raised and currently residing in owerri,to be frank, what I have seen in IGBO land spell doom if this Biafra is actualize. I was opportune to discuss dis issue with an elderly man who rides keke and the guy was filled with anger, he personally told me that fuel is sold 87 naira per liter in some part of the North but they are buying 130-150 per liter,what does that signifies? And I was dumb founded. The maltreatment igbos suffer in the hands of their fellow igbos is alarming especially if u are a novice in that field. Pls igbo should fix and clean their house before agitating cause any house built on a faulty foundation wouldn't stand the test of storm..

delishpot:
Wow, OP, is that a snail farm?

No, I think is a football pitch..

The news that charges have been filed against the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki at the Code of Conduct Tribunal was received by many with shock. The expectation, however, was that the accused would be in haste to clear his name, as honourable men are wont to.

On the contrary, Dr. Saraki filed an application before the Federal High Court seeking to stop the scheduled trial at the Code of Conduct Tribunal. The application was granted ex-parte.

The ex-parte application and its grant represent the two of the most frustrating avenues through which justice is frustrated and judicial process abused in our country's courts of 'justice'.  The fact that the number three man in our political hierarchy is the perpetrator in this case is profoundly disappointing.

More importantly, however, is the fact that the grant of the application was in manifest error of trite law such that keen watchers may be pardoned for suspecting that something underhand was involved in the entire process.

In the first place, no court of law has the powers to interfere with, or in any way restrain the exercise of the judicial powers of another court of co-ordinate jurisdiction. This is trite and well established in accordance with the principles of the doctrine of judicial precedent. In this case, the Federal High Court and the Code of Conduct Tribunal are courts of coordinate jurisdiction: appeals from the decisions of the Code of Conduct Tribunal lie to the Court of Appeal (s.23 (4) of the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act) and appeals from the decisions of a Federal high Court lie to the court of Appeal (s. 243, Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999).

In the second place,  The Code of Conduct Bureau is not a prosecuting authority; under section 3 of the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act, it is merely an administrative and investigative authority and its role in the prosecution of defaulters under the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act is limited to recommending persons for prosecution. The prosecuting authority in respect of offences under the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act is the Office of the Attorney General. Thus section 24 (3) of the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act provides the Attorney General or any one nominated by him may bring charges in respect of offences under the Act.

In the third place, it is incorrect for Dr. Saraki to hinge the basis of his ex parte application on the fact that there is no incumbent Attorney General capable of instituting actions against him or any criminal action whatsoever. This line of legal reasoning, once regularly cited, has since been discredited by the Supreme Court in a number of cases and, most recently, in the case of Federal Republic of Nigeria v. Senator Adewunmi where the Supreme Court, per Umaru AltuKalgo, JSC said: "There is no doubt at all that the power to institute criminal proceedings against any person in the 1999 Constitution lies on the Attorney-General of the State or the Federation as the case may be, but such power may be exercised by the Attorney-General himself or through any officers of his department. See Sections 174 and 211 of the 1999 Constitution. These sections though very similar in content do not require that the officers can only exercise the power to institute criminal proceedings if the Attorney General expressly donated his power to them. The provisions of the sections presume that any officer in any department of the Attorney General's office is empowered to initiate criminal proceedings unless it is proved otherwise."

Furthermore, section 25(3) provides that the question whether any authority has been given in pursuance of this section requiring the Attorney General to donate his prosecutorial powers under the Act, "shall not be inquired into by any person".

The decent course for an accused, if he has concerns, is to raise preliminary objection(s) before the tribunal where he has been charged.  Dr. Saraki is advised to so do if he is to remain qualified to remain as the number one lawmaker in this country.

On September 18, 2015, following Dr. Bukola Saraki's failure to appear before the Code of Conduct Tribunal as charged, the Tribunal, on the application of the prosecutor, issued a bench warrant for the arrest of Dr. Saraki. This power is inherent in any tribunal having the full powers of a court of law, such as the Code of Conduct Tribunal. Furthermore, sections 2 and 14 of the 3rd Schedule to the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act empower the tribunal to compel the attendance of accused persons and witnesses.

 Under section 23 of the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act, if found guilty, the tribunal is empowered to impose any of the following punishments:

(a) Vacation of office or any elective or nominated office, as the case may be;
(b) Disqualification from holding any public office (whether elective or not) for a period not exceeding ten years; and
(c) Seizure and forfeiture to the State of any property acquired in abuse or corruption of office.

Furthermore, trial or conviction under the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act does not preclude a separate trial under any other applicable criminal law (Section 24 Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act).

Top on the reasons for the call
for the immediate removal and investigation of the Medical Director is her alleged virement of the sum of N242,226,424.81 from personnel
cost to capital cost.
In the petition signed by the Chairman of the National Union of Allied Health Professionals
(NUAHP), Mr. Ezeugwu Clifford, his Secretary General, Nwafuru S.K and Chairmen and
Secretaries Medical and Health Workers Union of Nigeria (MAHUN) and National Association of Nigerian Nurses and Midwives (NANNM) in the Medical Centre, the unions alleged that personnel fund to the tune of N242,226,424.81 released by the Accountant General of the
Federation in 2014 for the payment of workers’ 2013/2014 promotion arrears was vired to capital projects by the Medical Director in flagrant violation of Civil Service financial regulations which prohibits virement of fund
from personnel cost to capital projects.
The unions had also questioned the authenticity of a waiver document purportedly signed by
Senator Ahmad Maccido, Chairman Senate Committee on Appropriation and Hon. John
Owan Enoh, Chairman House Committee on Appropriation, who was signed for, by an
unknown person.
They unions argues that at the time of signing of the waiver in February as dated, the National
Assembly was on recess, in preparation for the general elections. They also observed that while the waiver document which has no reference number was captioned, ‘Request for a virement of fund from Personnel Cost to Purchase of Hospital Equipment’, the first item under
‘Title of Projects’ was ‘Payment of Resident Doctors exams and workshop and other staff’ which they maintain had no bearing or connection to the ‘hospital equipment’ title.
Investigations by our report further revealed that the Medical Director was paying herself overtime allowance against the provisions of the Public Service Rule.
According to Article 130117 of the Public Service Rule, “Overtime allowance shall be
paid to officers on Grade Level 14 and below.”
In evident contravention of this rule, the Medical Director, Dr. Angela Uwakwem who is on Grade Level 17 has since May 2012 through December 2012 been paying herself N247,143.50 monthly as overtime allowance.
Also on the table is the issue of employment
racketeering against Uwakwem.
According to the petition to the Board the unions alleged, “The Medical Director employs staff and backdates their employments. This has been her practice in the hospital for some years now. The accrueable salaries for the backdated
months are never paid to the affected staff.” Further investigations by our reporter indicate that there may be no fewer than 95 documented
cases.

@Op I created a wordpress free hosting blog with my blackberry, I was able to post a topic with a laptop but since I posted and publish the first topic, I can't publish any topic again.. Pls help.

SUBMARINE:
Even if it is done for Christians I will condemn it

Isn't what you think Bro, JEGA1 wasn't angry with him because of his view but rather his words.
Why should he (OREMUSSANCTU)S use beggars? Muslims are they all beggars? Why did he derail from the Thread and yet he is proud of his stupidity no remorse nor apology.

sleekp1:
The prosecutor was absent from proceedings on the 18th you dolt, learn to read. Judgement in the case was adjoined last thursday because Keyamo didn't turn up. Do yourself a favour and hang your poor self, just proven you poor rats don't buy newspapers.

why not in the course of defending bacarnistas poo show us evidence of where it was written that PMB called keyamo nor stops efcc from appearing in court?
Back to the Topic
Corruption
It is obvious that PMB led administration inherented and initiated new corrupt cases which was as good as dead during GEJ administration but telling us that he PMB did nothing nor stop the proceeding of the court in such cases is absolutely out of place and a clear sign of hatred which reduces your view to mere hate article. It will also please me and others to see evidence of PMB interfering by buying the said coffee the accused drank nor stopping Efcc from doing their job as it was a norms in the past administration. For an accused to appear and for Efcc to take necessary actions now in a case that started during the days of GEJ,shows that EFCC has been a witch-hunting tool in the days of GEJ (Silvas case) and how PMB has out-performed GEJ in corruption. Ba3 low.
RULE OF LAW.
PMB and APC led federal government has set a new pace which GEJ and PDP will never attain if given 20yrs of trial. In the case of Ekiti APC led house and pdp led executive outburst which linger after may 29 never received any Presidential interference or might. The theme Presidential interference has been a constant slogan used by the passed PDP administration to interfere in any dealings between state executive and its house (Rivers state saga). Secondly PMB said and also stood by words to never interfere in the elections of both upper and lower chamber and has congratulate, accepts, respects and has started working with the elected officials of the both chambers and also condemned openly the actions of Saraki and Dangora for not respecting the Parts law. With this PMB has sub-passed GEJ and PDP.
OFFICE OF THE FIRST LADY.
PMB said during his campaign that he will abolish the office of the first lady which is not constitutional and to the surprises of Taniods and Barcanista, he has maintain his stands despite propaganda of PDP tabloids of FG reviewing and releasing the portrait of the first lady.. PMB has out-performed GEJ with this.
PROPAGANDA
The said comment attributed to elrufia has never been denied,counted nor argued by the then ruling party and it is now clear that NOI economic reshape was only on paper. Secondly the PDP senator by name Ben Murray Bruce claimed to have boarded an economic fight ticket in other to show concerns to the poor masses ending up show casing the all known propaganda by its party when it was clear to the masses that he was mocking us as usual.
CCB is said PMB and vice did what the law says about asset declaring and PMB and vice submitted the already filled assets form to ccb a day before hand over, they also said that it is after the ccb must have gone through the asset declared by PMB,it will then deem fit to declare it to the public. I know that PDP doesn't believe in Law not do the follow due process but if ain't satisfied, you can approach the law court with FOI bill.

There are great differences between a leader and a ruler, selfless service and selfish, belonging to the cabals and belonging to no one but everybody.
He listens, he thinks and he delivers, give it to PMB..

If President,
Muhammadu Buhari is firmly
resolved on the fight against
corruption in Nigeria, the Federal
Medical Centres across the
country would be a good place to
start.
In Imo state, the face-off
between workers and the
management of the Federal
Medical Centre (FMC), Owerri
which has crippled activities at
the hospital for the past two
months, has taken a new twist
with the workers who had earlier
been demanding cancellation of
the Public Private Partnership
(PPP) proposal by the
management of the centre, now
demanding the sack of the
Medical Director, Dr. Angela
Uwakwem.
While the PPP controversy
lingered, the angry workers were
critically probing into the records
and activities of the Medical
Director.
By the time the FMC Board in its
43rd meeting held on 15th May,
2015 eventually conceded to the
demands of the hospital unions
cancelling the PPP; revoking the
contract of already outsourced
units; withdrawing queries to
leaders of the unions and
meeting other demands, the
unions led by the National Union
of Allied Health Professionals
(NUAHP) had already unearthed
seemingly sleazy deals that
called the integrity and credibility
of the FMC management to
question.
Rather than return to work, the
union on the same 15th of May,
petitioned the hospital’s Board
through the Finance and General
Purposes Investigation
Committee of the Board alleging
gross financial misconduct and
high-handedness on the part of
the Medical Director, Dr. Angela
Uwakwem.
Top on the reasons for the call
for the immediate removal of the
Medical Director is her alleged
virement of the sum of
N242,226,424.81 from personnel
cost to capital cost.
In the petition signed by the
Chairman of the National Union
of Allied Health Professionals
(NUAHP), Mr. Ezeugwu Clifford,
his Secretary General, Nwafuru
S.K and Chairmen and
Secretaries of two other unions
in the Medical Centre, the unions
alleged that personnel fund to
the tune of
N242,226,424.81 released by the
Accountant General of the
Federation in 2014 for the
payment of workers’ 2013/2014
promotion arrears was vired to
capital projects by the Medical
Director in flagrant violation of
Civil Service financial regulations
which prohibits virement of fund
from personnel cost to capital
projects.
The union had also questioned
the authenticity of a waiver
document purportedly signed by
Senator Ahmad Maccido,
Chairman Senate Committee on
Appropriation and Hon. John
Owan Enoh, Chairman House
Committee on Appropriation,
who was signed for, by an
unknown person.
The union argues that at the time
of signing of the waiver in
February as dated, the National
Assembly was on recess, in
preparation for the general
elections.
They also observed that while the
waiver document which has no
reference number was
captioned, ‘Request for a
virement of fund from Personnel
Cost to Purchase of Hospital
Equipment’, the first item under
‘Title of Projects’ was ‘Payment of
Resident Doctors exams and
workshop and other staff’ which
they maintain had no bearing or
connection to the ‘hospital
equipment’ title.
Investigations by our report
further revealed that the Medical
Director was paying herself
overtime allowance against the
provisions of the Public Service
Rule.
According to Article 130117 of
the Public Service Rule,
“Overtime allowance shall be
paid to officers on Grade Level
14 and below.”
In evident contravention of this
rule, the Medical Director, Dr.
Angela Uwakwem who is on
Grade Level 17 has since May
2012 through December 2012
been paying herself N247,143.50
monthly as overtime
allowance.Also on the table is the
issue of employment
racketeering against Uwakwem.
According to the petition to the
Board the unions alleged, “The
Medical Director employs staff
and backdates their
employments. This has been her
practice in the hospital for some
years now. The accrueable
salaries for the backdated
months are never paid to the
affected staff.” Further
investigations by our reporter
indicate that there may be no
fewer than 95 documented
cases.
Presently, the once boisterous
hospital environment of the FMC,
Owerri has been reduced to a
ghost town with the hospital now
deserted. Not even the Accident
and Emergency unit showed any
sign of life as the ward was
totally evacuated, as the workers
continue to embark on their
work-to-rule action, ‘till the
Medical Director is removed’.
“the staff of the
hospital have lost confidence in
the ability of the Medical
Director, Dr. Angela Uwakwem to
manage man, materials, finance
and resources in the centre. We
insist she should resign and
make way for a thorough
investigation on these weighty
allegations since she cannot be
judge in her own case.”
Effort to contact Uwakwem was
not fruitful. Several visits to her
office did not yield much as
officials attached to her told our
correspondent that she had not
been to the office for nearly two
weeks since the protests took a
new turn.
