talk of the youWIN project

Modikko:
The same way Ngozi left the treasury in mess 2015.

open treasury should list the names, department and title of the individuals. good record keeping.

Iolo:
You’re right. Open Treasury is a step in the right direction. As it allows for these sort of probes from Budgit. Alas, the goal of any government should be to shorten the length between when a corrupt act takes place and when it is spotted. This potentially helps to do that with CSOs and other watch bodies like Budgit monitoring government expenditure.

What is critical to do next is to increase the number of transactions covered and then put in place a mechanism to effectively investigate allegations such as these in a timely manner. Perhaps put a lien on these accounts till the investigations are concluded.

There is probably nothing legally wrong with government paying an individuals account directly depending on what the payments are for - which the narration on those transactions were not clear about. So it could be corruption being caught early on in the game or could be an accountant in an MDA performing a legitimate transaction but too lazy to fill in the right Narration details.

This is a good step in the right direction.

Adesina is busy causing trouble. Adesina just throw all the former African presidents under the bus for his unethical behaviour. they have to support him to prevent america from trying to control the bank.

I think we have others beside Okonjo.

Nyanabo:
So far as she is human she can't. I'm not saying she is 100% or a thousand percent. All I'm saying is she is the best we've got that's suitable for the job at least for the time being.

Why is it that it's other people who values things that's under our nose ? We attach no value to them until other people starts appreciating them for their works. I remember Mr. Adesina when he wanted to run for the presidency I'd of the AFDB back in 2015 he didn't receive full support. But now see the exploits he is doing on the continent. Until recently his person wasn't questioned.

and what did this Amina do as Environment minister? zero, but she still receive a bigger position. quid pro quo

Modikko:
Educate yourself Man. Government cannot appoint everyone no matter how good the person is. There are other people who are as good as Madam Ngozi but prefer to play on the International scene. Amina J Muhammad resigned as Minister for Environment to become UN DSG, if you now what that is

can she even receive 100 percent nomination from everyone
there are other nigerians there. even other ibos!

Nyanabo:
I beg to disagree with you sir. Mrs Okonjo is a woman that puts her all into what ever capacity she serves. She more than deserves the nomination. Because she has worked for it. Her works speaks for her. No need to banter words.

the woman is pathetic in GAVI. a soft landing for her

Nyanabo:
Think it's best to give the jobs to a capable hands. The woman is good and the world's knows that. You can't hide a candle under a bushel. Kudos to her and the FRN.

I do get your point on the recycling products. Bbut that's not in this case. It's in the political sector. That's where we need to stop these recycled products that have nothing to offer.

than man must be crying. politics. what state is he from?

seunmsg:
He has a choice. In fact, he withdrew the nomination of a northerner to support your Igbo sister. Yuonov Agah served meritoriously for two terms as WTO deputy DG. You guys should show gratitude and stop being ungrateful.

budgit may be making a mistake with their assumptions. i dont see how the open treasury helps if we can know the persons behind the transactions

buhari and the ig of police are failing. arm robbers are killing policemen like insects. buhari should admit he has failed. we need another strongman!!

cbn dey scramble to see wetin dey go shift from balance books.

who are these people fooling. so exchange rate eat all the money. dey wan fool edo man.
the money is gone!!!

explain to us

maballack:
Apparently you also need to be educated on what direct primaries entails , and what indirect primaries entails because you have it mixed up ,

what is this direct primaries?
oshiomhole is bulging is way thru. this is revenge 1.0

and work has obaseki done so far?

chriskosherbal:
I totally understand your point sir, I still support Obaseki ...I think he has something to offer the state .

see as they play politics with people's employmet.

hes trying to distance APC from corrupt PDP. buhari is playing games.

FlordFlorez:
Did mr president really need to make that statement? Is he a president of APC members or Nigeria, im not understanding.

this man is talking rubbish. he took his unethical corrupt behaviour that are usually ignored in agric ministry to the AfDB. Only he didn't expect the other board members to keep silent. now he has thrown many of the presidents under the bus to support his bad behaviour and prevent americans and the europeans from controlling the AfDB. he's trying to be smart by the corners. he only continuing the stealing from jonathan's days. that's why buhari said i will support you even though you worked for PDP.

so how much be your annual salary?
i hear they pay nnpc staffs millions every month.

COMPAQ:
Thanks for explaining to them! The Senate people who couldn't understand simple explanation are the idiots in all of this.

I work in the oil and gas sector. Let me try and also explain:

Security is indeed a big challenge. All tankers and rig, materials movement from logistics bases to the production facilities need to be escorted with security house boats. Even movement by land of oil staff to oil field locations have to be with security escort front and back, with mopol/soldiers. Imagine the huge cost of this per year. Are you telling me that in Saudi or Norway or Russia, they have the incur such costs? Nigeria is the kidnap, sea piracy capital of the world and people are suprised about the extar cost of security.

A number of our oil wells are quite old with depreciating production, which are expensive to keep going. Most of the new oil of the past 2 decades have been from deep offshore which is expensive.

Our production is mainly in swampy terrain with attendant difficulty in accessing it. Swamp rig costs more than land rig. This adds to costs. Middle East countries on the other hand drill for oil on firm land.

NNPC/NAPIMS themselves are a big problem. Because they pay their Cash call late, payments to vendors are always delayed. Because of this, vendors add a cash 'premium' to their cost to compensate for late payments, which drives up cost.

NNPC/NAPIMS themselves are another problem, because many of their top guys front for Nigerian companies that cannot do the job. The bid low to get the job, the frustrate the IOC's with non performance. Then they come with large variation to milk the IOC's. Instead of NAPIMS to weild the big hammer against them, they support them because the NAPIMS guy fronting for the contractor will get a cut. (Think PID).

Because Nigeria is so undeveloped and it's people so poor, they see oil company as their only source for wealth. Therefore the burden on oil companies to provide water, roads, bridges, medical care, electricity etc for communities is much higher than other countries. There is also bush entry, freedom to operate etc. Do you think they pay all these in Saudi, UAE, Norway and Russia

Also NDDC contribution is 3% of any oil company budget. So if Chevron has a budget of $1.5bln for 2020, then NDDC contribution is $45mln is expected to be paid to NDDC. This impacts opex of oil companies. Does any major oil producing country have NDDC

There are still more reasons I can give, but I rest my case!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

they pay these guys outrageous amounts of salaries in millions and they still deliver mediocre results. tufiakwa! just split nnpc and sell it

nnpc has smart staffs. they should fix it

what a dry campus.

dey don shelve the exercise to fill the vacant slots with their friends and families.

congrats to him. the only problem with nigerians in the epl is the slow pace of their games. if he can match with pogba, even better for him.

ffk and him tongue

this is sad and madness!

all these local emirs are dying. even northern vips. corona virus i think.

you see how lost jonathan was, appointing this womas as ambassador when qualified people were there. jonathan was dashing the office to anyone. now this woman can call herself ambassador. what gives her the right when there are qualified foreign service staffs there.

who is peter obi ?

now you see why these doctors they go on strike. these dpr staffs dey get millionaires.

kafeii123:
We are our own enemies in the country...

DPR staff deserves the pay they get currently, but Nigeria's staff in other areas of the economy also deserve something similar. I mean, why do the staff in Nigerian hospitals get a hazard allowance of only 5k per month...? and even now that some states paid 15 -25k recently, they only did it for about a month or two.

And we all know that the country is not at a lack of resources to pay these salaries.... given the spate of humongous lootings we're all witnessing especially in this period.

Moreoever, despite the jumbo pay, many of these guys still do dirty deals here and there.... else, why do filling stations still shortsell fuel to people while they look the other way?

It's better to harmonize the pay across he various sectors...let people go for them because they have the passion and are competent, not because of greed.... It will help everyone do their jobs better

cc: winnah, gurunlocker,

when they collect cake and money from everywhere. this is what happens. you give up control.

Karlifate:

Cutealexio:
The role of Nigeria in the sustainability of AfDB cannot be underplayed
