We have been warned by several channels about this untested investment scheme.

Anyways January is only a month away...let us wait and see.
Unfortunately no christmas for a lot of families who have money locked down in MMM.

Compliments of the season to us all.

All in the church founder's quest to add more titles to his name.

Our God is watching.

I agree with the Pastor, worldliness has crept into our places of worship.
Most people don't take christianity serious anymore.
Check other religions, if such comedy acts are acceptable.

These guys are really funny - anyways they have to improvise.

If we don't patronise Arik Air, some Nigerian will complain that we are not patrotic.
Why is Arik Air still collecting booking by payments when they know that their don't have good aircraft.

For the foreseeable future, unfortunately we willl continue to be at the mercy of expensive and exhurbitant foreign airlines - BA, KLM AirFrance etc

By the way, we are still waiting for the so-called National Airline proposed by the PMB and Amaechi.

No wonder German technological development is one of the best in the world - everyone wants to drive a German auto.

This is how things operate in countries that have got rule of law and judicial discipline.

See fine guy no pimples (no homo at all)...at least he should be glad that he wasn't sentenced to death by firing squad...just 27 years in prison...will be completed in a jiffy.

Some people who are commenting, should dress like how Fayose dressed to present a business proposal and see if they will be listened to.

A bit of dress sense is needed to give the 'position of the office of an executive governor' some honour.

Really a shame that Fayose is just a 'real tout'.

Unbelieveable that this man is parading himself in this fashion among our brothers from the south east.

He is trying to be relevant in the politics of this country and what a good place to start.

He cannot never try this among the Yorubas.

Chai...from a custom officer to one of the richest Nigerian politician...only in Nigeria

The hardworking 'Nigerian Jews' as usual!!!

By next week - the news story will change to PMB witch-hunting PDP members.

PDP should get its house in order.

Rebranding in full force

Unfortunately, OBJ took the corrupt level in the NA to a highher level with his 3rd term agenda by allegedly bribing the lawmakers with huge cash-ful of 'ghana-must-go' bags.

Regardless which of the two parties that wins on saturday - APC or AD, Ahmed Tinubu is still the winner.

If Olushola Oke of AD becomes governor, he will cross-carpet to APC at some point in the future.

The question goes thus: must state governors buy cars for the state legislative arm of government.

Now there is no seperation of power, because the HoA will do the bidding of the state governor everytime.

On another note, the cars are beautiful - 'real tear rubber'

I think Jegede will win because the Ondo people will give him a vote of sympathy.

Baba OBJ has not received his monthly allowance for the past 10 months, so he's vexing seriously hence the 20 pager of annoyance.

I like the colour of this vehicle - nice

A major crackdown on corrupt foreigners laundering their ill-gotten gains in Britain has uncovered £170 million of suspected illicit assets in powerful new evidence of the scale of “dirty money” flowing into London.

The National Crime Agency said the suspect assets — which include multi-million-pound homes in London’s most expensive districts — had been identified in probes into 25 cases of “international corruption” it is carrying out with overseas law enforcers and all assets had been frozen under court orders.

Some of the suspected dirty money is held elsewhere in Britain or overseas, but the agency — dubbed Britain’s FBI — said much of it was in London, invested in property or other assets. It also plans to target the use of corruptly obtained money to buy “high-value residential property in the areas where the lights aren’t on”.

Donald Toon, the NCA’s director of prosperity, made the disclosure in an interview with the Standard, in which he vowed to intensify the purge on corrupt foreign investors when new powers come into effect.

He predicted that the reforms — including “unexplained wealth orders” requiring suspects to prove the source of their wealth and plans to force owners of overseas companies used to buy homes to reveal their identities — would have a “visible effect” on the London property market, including a dip in prices or demand for prime properties.

Mr Toon also revealed that the NCA had referred several lawyers to the Solicitors Regulation Authority for allegedly being lax and unprofessional over their legal duty to alert authorities to suspicious financial dealings by their clients. Professionals from other occupations such as accountancy have also been referred to their regulators.

Mr Toon’s most significant revelation, however, was about the value of suspect assets that the NCA had identified since it set up a specialist unit in June last year. “We have 25 live investigations for international corruption,” he said, adding that the assets involved totalled £170 million.

He said many of the probes involved multiple suspects and that citizens of Nigeria — which had a “very fundamental problem with corruption” — were among those under investigation.

Seriously, I think the Senate President is 'fibbing' as usual.
Maybe he should acquaint himself more about news from other countries about the level of corruptness emanating from Nigeria.

I think the election should be postponed to allow Jegede some time to campaign and do some rallies.

Seriously, our level of democracy in Nigeria is too childish, if a so called 'biggest political party' in Africa cannot put its house in order - PDP is one useless party.

President Mugagbe of Zimbabwe is there, thought he's not leaving too well?

Ahead of the ongoing probe and pending their arraignment, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the Department of State Security Service (DSS) have restricted the movement of not less than 13 judges to the country.

The judges cannot travel abroad because they have been watch-listed until permitted by a court.

It was also learnt that security agents have started screening the Petty Cash Book of the Supreme Court and payment vouchers to contractors.

The Petty Cash Book which emanated from draw down from Secret/Operation Account was said to have revealed a lot on how about N2.2billion was spent on miscellaneous expenses.

The interim report indicated that the “discoveries were messy and least expected in such a scared place.”

About 15 judges are undergoing probe by the EFCC and the DSS.

Those under investigation are two Supreme Court judges-Justices Sylvester Ngwuta and Inyang Okoro; the former Presiding Justice of the Court of Appeal, Ilorin Division, Justice Mohammed Ladan Tsamiya; Justice Adeniyi Ademola (Federal High Court); the ex-Chief Judge of Enugu State, Justice I. A. Umezulike; Justice Kabiru Auta of Kano State High Court; Justice Muazu Pindiga (Gombe State High Court); Justice Bashir Sukola and Justice Ladan Manir, from the Kaduna State High Court.

Justice Agbadu James Fishim (National Industrial Court); Justice Uwani Abba Aji Justices Mohammed Nasir Yunusa, Hyeladzira Ajiya Nganjiwa; Musa Haruna Kurya; and Rita Ofili-Ajumogobia (Federal High Court).

Out of the judges, the NJC has recommended sanctions for Justice Mohammed Ladan Tsamiya; the erstwhile Chief Judge of Enugu State, Justice I. A. Umezulike; and Justice Kabiru Auta.

Investigation by our correspondent revealed that all the judges have been watch-listed and their movement restricted to the country until investigation is concluded.

A reliable source, who spoke in confidence, said: “All the security agencies and the Nigerian Immigration Service have been notified that the affected judges are undergoing investigation. The implication is that they cannot go out of the country except permitted to do so.

“Actually, many of the judges have had their passports either seized or kept in custody of investigating agencies.

“The restriction is to make the ongoing investigation easier. As a matter of fact, some of them have been reporting intermittently or in some cases daily for questioning to either the EFCC or the DSS. It is not a punitive action but it is a way of facilitating investigation.

“For instance, we have had instances when detectives followed Justice Ofili-Ajumogobia to inspect some assets in Delta and Edo States. If she had been abroad, they won’t be able to do so.

“We are tracking many assets of some of these judges and this exercise requires verification and updated interrogation.

“But as soon as they are arraigned in court for trial, their bail will be at the discretion of the court.”

As at press time, it was gathered that some security agents were already screening the Petty Cash Book of the Supreme Court on how about N2.2billion, allegedly drawn from the court’s Secret/Operation Account, was spent on miscellaneous expenses.

Some vouchers of payment to some judges and contractors were still being screened by security agents.

Another source said: “The discoveries were messy and least expected in such a scared place. They actually border on non-compliance with Financial Regulations or gross abuse of the process.

“Some miscellaneous expenses and allowances were completely outside the approved rates by the Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC) on remuneration for public and judicial officers.

“These details will soon be released to the public so that Nigerians can appreciate the rot and the weak system at the apex court.”

Meanwhile, about five firms have been implicated in the offering of bribes to some management staff of the Supreme Court.

According to a document obtained last night, the companies/ contractors include Willysdave Limited; Welcon Nigeria Limited; Dean Musa Nig. Limited; Ababia Ventures Limited and MBR Computers Limited.

“These companies have made useful statements on about N80.4million bribe sums so far detected. They are helping ongoing investigation.

“But the number of the companies could be more than the list at hand. We are still screening more vouchers, transfer details and procurement process. There are heaps of documents to go through. The documents we have got are sufficient for the trial of some judges and a few other accomplices.”

Unfortunately, there's nothing the NJC can do about this.
All corrupt judges will be prosecuted.

But where is Eyitayo Jegede on the list?

Fayose is looking for ways to be relevant with his APC colleagues, because 2018 will be very interesting.

wowmenow:
Buhari well done and continue

Must every mishap in this country be attributed to Buhari, what about the other faction of PDP been involved in this alleged attack?

Jaj-Jay has a dual Nigeria Turkish nationalilities during his playing days with Fenerbahçe. His Turkish name is "Muhammet Yavuz".

He is a legend among the Fenerbahçe fans.

One of the best role model from Delta State.

Under which faction of PDP will GEJ contest as president in the 2019 elections - Ali-Modu group or Markafi group?

If the figure int he article is correct, then it shows must of the people going to China went there with criminal intents.

They should have known that the South-east Asian countries don't condue any criminal acts especially from blacks.

Politicians should not be allowed to move between parties - just plain silly.
