I uploaded my passport and it showed successful. But its not showing on my dashboard. Dunno if I should go ahead and print my application slip?? Any one with this issue?

Now lets be honest. He looks really pretty

Former Chief of Army Staff Gen. Kenneth Minimah (retd) has refunded about N1.7billion to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), The Nation learnt at the weekend.

Besides, there were indications that another former Chief of Army Staff and some ex-military officers might be arraigned in court for alleged corrupt practices relating to “phoney” arms contracts.

The legal unit of the EFCC is fine-tuning charges against the suspects.

But a status report on Gen. Minimah, who was the Army Chief from January 2014 to July 2015, indicates that he has returned some cash to the EFCC.


The refund followed extensive investigation by the anti-graft agency on the report and recommendations of the Presidential Committee on Audit of Defence Equipment Procurement (CADEP).

CADEP had uncovered “irregularities” in the procurement and award of contracts in the Army and suspicious transactions in the accounts of the Defence Industry Corporation of Nigeria (DICON) during Gen. Minimah’s tenure.

A top source, who spoke in confidence, said: “We have interrogated Gen. Minimah and he has started refunding some funds. So far, he has refunded about N1.7billion in two tranches to the EFCC.

“So far, he has cooperated with us and we are hopeful that he will still make more refunds, in line with some contracts awarded by the Army.

“But we are likely to arraign another Chief of Army Staff and some ex-military officers in court soon following the conclusion of a comprehensive investigation on them. We are expecting relevant advice from our legal unit.”

The CADEP panel had observed that a company was registered on November 17, 2014 and awarded $125,179,299.10 on the same day.


The report said in part: “ “The Nigerian Army, between April and August 2014, entered into four contract agreements with Societe D’Equipmenteux Internationale (SEI Nig Ltd) for procurement of Cobra Armoured Personnel Carriers, Shilka Self-Propelled Artillery Guns, Armoured Fighting Vehicles (AFVs) as well as various ammunition and spares funded by the ONSA.

“The contracts for the Cobra APCs and Shilka Guns were not executed as they were not funded. However, the costs for procurement of the AFVs; ammunition and spares were $398,550,000.00 and $484,765,000.00 respectively totalling $883,315,000.00.

“In November 2014, the ONSA awarded contract to Conella Services Limited for procurement of 72 various arms and ammunition that included MRAP vehicles and Mi-17 helicopter at the cost of $125,179,299.10.

“The Committee observed that the company was registered in Nigeria on 17 November 2014 and awarded the contract on the same date while the EUC for the procurement was issued a day later, on 18 November 2014. Furthermore, the ONSA paid $36,996,530.00 and N2,209,582,296.00 to the vendor between November 2014 and 15 April 2015. However, the Nigerian Army denied receipt of any procurement from Conella Services Ltd.

“Similarly, the Committee tried in vain to reach officials of the company to confirm execution of the contract. There is, therefore, the need for further investigation of Conella Services Ltd.

“The committee observed that SEI and its two associated companies, APC Axial Ltd and HK-Sawki Nig Ltd, were incorporated in May 2014 with two Nigerien brothers, Hima Aboubakar and Ousmane Hima Massy, as the only directors.

“ Between May 2014 and March 2015, the ONSA mandated CBN to release various sums totalling $386,954,000.00 to SEI and the two associated companies for ‘procurement of technical equipment’, without tying the money to particular items of procurement.

“Thus, the allotment of the fund was left at the discretion of the vendor without input or

consultation with ONSA or the Nigerian Army.

“Furthermore, some of the funds transferred preceded the formalisation of SEI contracts with the Nigerian Army. There was also no evidence of any contract to justify the payments made by ONSA to the SEI associate companies. Consequently, it had been difficult for the ONSA

Just with 3 comments this is already front page? Ah mods fear God

How the hell is this FP without any comments Wayo moderators.
And FYI This is Nairaland. Celebrate the masquerades in your village not Halloween. Peace out

Also, so...Jon is a dumdum. His plan to show Cersei a wight to get her support completely failed due to her being a lying snake.
All he got out of it was a dragon killed, under the control of the night king, and now bringing down the wall so the zombies can invade. You know nothing Jon Snow indeed.

Ugh, I swear if Jon ****ing snow (aegon whatever) gets to be king because Dany is either like (oh... okay!) or dies It will be the most predictable ending ever in a series about unpredictability and subverting expectations. Like, Jon Snow has been a central character since basically his first introduction and his whole underdog "I'm a good, righteous man, unlike 90% of men, but I'm a poor bastard" has always made me feel like hes going to end up king
I'm bitter. If Dany dies, I'd rather Cersei's lifeless corpse be the last thing to touch the iron throne. Either that or the Night King

You stand accused of treason. How do you answer these charges........lord baelish

Baelish:

Queen cersei surviving another season

SANSA did that!!!! And you all were hating on her calling her weak! She shut shit down literally! !

To be honest I was a little touched while Littlefinger went down on his knees, crying, begging Sansa to forgive him And 10 seconds later I was happy when Arya cut his throat

Obviously the match is by 4am

To think all this mess happened because of cersei. I mean she didn't have to lift a finger to slay a dragon afterall

Sansa and Arya still makes no sense. And the fact that Winterfell is only gaining an actual plot 2 episodes away from the finale is pretty dumb. Just kill little finger already and stop trying to make this fake drama
The wight trip in itself was dumb. But it only gets dumber.
They captured a wight, that was their point. Now run. yet they stared and got themselves locked in a lake. Why? they know the WW are coming, just go around the lake and leave
Also, the fact that the Night King brings the winter and can't freeze a lake is a major plot hole
Daenerys not listening to Tyrion at all, even though she has always paid attention to her advisors. wow
Viserion dying so easily, and Daenerys having no reaction to it. wow
was there anything I liked about this episode?
Ramin did a beautiful job when dany arrived to save jon
Also, the cinematography was great, and the VFX team was amazing. Dany costume was one of my favourites of the entire show.
I truly hope this season is like this because they need to get characters to certain places in order for GRRM ending to come true and they acknowledge this is not their best work bc otherwise we are screwed

I hate Jon snow I swear. He should have died long ago!!!!!

Dany being more upset about JS not showing up than Viserions death
I startes crying when viserion came crashing down with blood gushing out of his neck.
I knew he was going to die because I spoiled myself but it was still very hard to watch.
RIP viserion

So finally the thread is back opened. Was pissed when Seun locked it up last week. Didnt bother to open Nairaland.
OMG that Battle. I Was shaking. Especially when drogon was hit. I felt like it was me that got hit. Jamie needs to die already.
Finally a win for Dany

Seun:

Sorry, but you were adequately warned!

Pe-show spoilers are prohibited, but once the show airs, people who have watched it are allowed to discuss it on the thread.

...

SPOILERS BELOW:

...

The Queen of Thorns is a disappointment. She is the Queen of Words, but she is also the Queen of Failures. Totally outsmarted by Cersei. Sad.

At the End she got the last Laugh. She went out like a Legend she is. Cersei didnt outsmart her. Cersei outsmarted Tyrion and Dany Listening to Tyrion. If u remember in last episode she told Dany not to be a sheep but a dragon. That she has seen alot of clever men but she has outlived them all cause they were all sheeps. Now with her death she has provoked Dany with her words if u watch next episode preview, you hear Dany saying "I'm done with clever plans" she is now embracing Olenna's word and being a dragon. So Even in death The Lady Olenna stays winning. And let's not forget how she played Jamie drinking the poison before revealing it was she who killed Geoffrey. Getting the last laugh and a painless death while still taunting cersei. Just imagine when Cersei hears Olenna killed Geoffrey and got off so easily. Olenna remains the smartest character on GOT and she got the best death. She was old anyways and had nothing to loose. She has planted her words deep in Danys heart. And you'll see those words grow from the next episode.

Favorite Part:

Missandei: You stand in the presence of Daenerys Stormborn of House Targaryen, rightful heir of the Iron Throne, rightful queen of the Andals and First Men, Protector of the Seven Kingdoms, the Mother of Dragons, the Khalesi of the Great Grass Sea, the Unburnt, the Breaker of Chains.

Davos: Jon Snow...............King of the North

I just love how Sansa was like oh my god little brother how much I missed you how are you omg hug me and Bran was like Sansa that was a lovely dress you wore on the night you were raped, now pls leave me I am a busy man

I Agree I underestimated Cerci. She is a QUEEN!!!!

WHAT AN EPISODE!!! Dany taking so many Ls . Whoever Underestimate Cerci chai. And now My Olenna is done. I'm almost tempted to stop watching and wait till the last episode is out so I can binge what it. My heart is litreally breaking. Dany Need a win fast! The last few minutes of this episode had me like

TheKingIsHere:


If Sansa was smart, why couldn't she use that smartness to save herself from Ramsey and Geoffrey?

And you are forgetting how she saved Your precious Jon snow in the battle of the bastards AFTER He burshed of her advice. Tsk Tsk Tsk

Sultan5:


I feel Jon made the right decision and those Kastark and whatever will be even more loyal than than before. Sansa's opinion was basically what Cercei would have done. But that would have created a faction against Jon, however small. Jon needs a united north and this decision just cemented that.

You are forgetting what sansa said which is He should have rewarded those who fought besides him which is way better than saying "hell if you rebel against me you will be killed but your family will be well off" when potential traitors weigh the consequences of their treason they will think twice befor thinking about it. Kind of how our politicians are looting because they just get a slap on the wrist.

TheKingIsHere:


Arya is interesting to watch. Please tell us what is interesting in Sansa because am yet to see any

Sansa is smart. All she went through the past seasons have been building her up for this last season. She now know the game well having learnt from cercei herself. And she can actually take jon down at any moment because he is so dumb and whiny. Sansa is smart enough to toy with Lord Baelish. Sansa now is unpredictable and that my friend is intresting to watch.

kombats:
PLEASE WHO ELSE THINKS THE PRISONER IN THE MONASTERY/CITADEL/LIBRARY IS DEANERYS BROTHER WE THOUGHT HAD DIED.
Maybe be the molten gold damage his skin cos we know that they are fireproof.

No already confirmed that its sir Jorah with grey scale!!!! His name was even in the credits

Rumor floating around the Internet is that Euron promised gift to Cercei is the Dragon horn ( an instrument capable of controlling dragons) now that Will be a major threat to dany. I just hope the gift is Tyrion so Cercei can tourture and kill him will then make Jamie furious and Kill her.

TheKingIsHere:
Out of all the starks, Sansa is the most useless. I don't know why they haven't killed her off. Very annoying witch.

All this sansa hate!!! I can't deal. Right now Sansa and Arya are the only intresting starks LEFT!!! Sansa has been through hell and she redemmed herself last season. Or are you all forgetting how she saved your precious Jon behind in the battle of the bastards. Now That's what lead all the stark men to their doom. They dont listen to the female starks. Jon is so whiny and annoying and Useless.
Btw who is pumped to see Illya and Olenna join forces with queen Dany at the Battle table next episode. Its gon be lit!!!

I mean they had a strong start with Arya SCALPING the Freys right off the bat, but after all it went downhill tbh. Jon was SO annoying this episode. "Stop undermining me!!!111!!!11!" Like... mother****er, you couldn't handle leading the like 20 people that makeup the Watch and ended up getting killed while Sansa managed to survive like 5 seasons of King's Landing, including both Joffrey AND Ramsey aka the most psycho mother****ers this show has had. Of course she gon know more than you. Learn ya place.

Also what the actual **** was that montage with Sam? I don't even know why they give that fat **** so much time. I don't even know what was more disgusting, the **** he had to clean or the fact that he took up so much valuable screentime. Hope the White Walkers eat his assn (but it's probably too ****ing disgusting for even them). Can't wait to see his hot brother again

8GUeqO8.gif

Oh and the Ed Sheeran cameo was a crock of **** too
