Misguided youths

The part being constructed was neither done nor commissioned.

This happens in other countries. Its not due to lack of seat. Its their preference

its possible most of them r post graduate student.I use to hv same thinking too until I viewed it from another perspective .

Why will PG students be members of NANS?

I just sent a message to you

Nigerians have messed up in Seychelles, so as a Nigerian coming to Seychelles, the scrutiny is extra, especially if you are a lone traveller and also a first timer. The island of Mahe is filled with very little population of blacks. You see whites, asians, Arabs mixed race, Creoles. Most people wear casuals like shorts and singlets, t-shirts etc. You need to have a minimum of at least 500 dollars or euro before they allow you in at the airport. As at this week $1=13.5008 rupees while €1=17 scr. Everything is expensive except fish and bus ride. The beaches are free. Car hire around anse aux pin is €40 per day off peak period and €60 during peak period. You also need to deposit in case of accidents. The finest beach on Mahe Island is Beau Vallon. It is located after Victoria. The island is very Picturesque.

Bro, it was luck and I know what I'm saying. He grew up in the same street with my mum so I know what I'm saying.

Bro we worked together on the same floor, for the same company.

Baba, this case is different. Bayo Adelabu isn't born with silver spoon. He had a humble beginning. And for your info, Adegoke Adelabu (his grandfather) died before independence. He's just a young brilliant guy who was lucky to attain the pinnacle of his career.

It wasn't luck. It was connections.

adioolayi:
Bayo Adelabu, Seyi Makinde ...either ways, OYO will be govern by a good technocrats.
God bless OYO State

I hope you will say this again if Bayo wins.

fergie001:
His CV is not bad and he is young...

Makinde v Adelabu....is cool....
But nah only Ibadan people fit contest gov for Oyo state?

Shukuokukobambi...come here

Don't be deceived , Bayo is a real bad guy.

He is the registrar and a cute guy. While it happens that lecturers harass students sexually, students also do and even force themselves on lecturers

dingbang:
I think it was spelt clear in the bible when Jesus spoke to the apostles they should leave everything and follow him

It is not the reason sir. It was caused by schisms in the church

This must be a joke. Except the election is massively rigged. Even APC will be scared with such result

Jim Nwobodo, a former old Anambra governor, has revealed some events that happened during the Atlanta 1996 Olympics.

A former governor of old Anambra State, Chief Jim Nwobodo, relives the victory of the Super Eagles in Atlanta Olympics of 1996 and how he saved Kanu Nwankwo from Coach Westerhof.
The Super Eagles won the gold medal in the Atlanta Olympics in 1996 when you were the Sports Minister.

Can you share with us the story of what happened then?
They (Super Eagles) beat Japan, beat Brazil and also beat other big teams. That was the time we had wonderful players. You can only know the best team when they go out of the country and play the best teams in the world. Mikel Obi is playing in China and there are other young boys like Alex Iwobi, Ahmed Musa, Kelechi Iheanacho and many others.


There is one thing I like about Nigerian football. Nigerians are football lovers, there is no doubt about that and football has the ability to unite Nigerians.
I remember very well the 1996 event when we played in Atlanta Olympics. Nigeria was a pariah nation. The day we reached the climax was the day Nigeria met Brazil. We had a very strong team, those who were determined to do their best to make Nigeria proud.


Two things happened that day. We got into the field and, in the first half, they (Brazil) were leading Nigeria by 3-1. I sat by the side of then – FIFA President, Joao Havelange, a Brazilian lawyer, businessman and athlete who served as the 7th FIFA President from 1974 to 1998 and I told him we will beat Brazil and he started laughing because we were two goals down.


Half time break pep talk
During the half time break, I went to our boys in the dressing room and called them one by one, starting with Sunday Oliseh, then Daniel Omokachi, Kanu Nwankwo, Jay Jay Okocha, Victor Ikpeba, Celestine Babayaro and others. I urged them not to disgrace me and Nigerians and they assured me that they will beat Brazil. I then called the coach, Clemens Westerhof, who complained that Kanu was not playing well and that he would remove him.

I ordered him not to remove the young man. I threatened to sack him if he removed Kanu. He complied with my order and allowed Kanu to play in the second half. In the second half, Okocha scored the second goal, making it 2-3; another goal was scored by Kanu to make it 3-3 and second half ended. In the extra time, we had what is called the golden goal then and, five minutes after, Kanu scored the golden goal and the match ended. Everyone was surprised but God was at work and I heard Him (God) when I said Kanu should not be removed.

Kanu became the man of the match. We were excited and many whites and many Africans, who did not know about the Dream Team, started painting themselves in green white green. I was also told that families that were not in talking terms for ten years reconciled because of that match.


Sweet victory
Then – Head of State, General Sani Abacha, who was not in the habit of answering telephone calls, called almost all of us, including my wife. He did not stop there. He had to wait for us alongside some state governors for two days under the rain at the City Gate, Abuja when we returned to Nigeria and that was what that victory did to Nigeria. What a sweet victory!


The second thing that happened was that Chioma Ajunwa told me that she and other Nigerian athletes were yet to be paid their 300 dollars per day on the day she would compete. I saw reason with her but I told her it was a very small amount. I promised her that I will give her 10,000 dollars if she won a gold medal, she was shocked. I advised her to go for the long jump if she was good at that. Her first jump earned her gold medal for Nigeria and I gave her 10,000 dollars. This thing is about leadership and encouraging people around you.


So, sport, in itself, is something that, if properly developed, will bring the country together. Look at what sport is doing in the world today. If you are a sports administrator, you are known all over the world. FIFA President is bigger that any President in the world. My worry is that Nigeria has not given proper attention to sports.
What is your rating of journalists in Nigeria?
Nigeria has the freest press in the world; journalists write anything and get away with it and they hold people accountable and nobody can fight them. In Nigeria, I can say that we have a very free and strong press. I really don’t see anything wrong with what they are doing, except that they should always get their facts right.


What is your take on employers owing workers?
Any employer that owes his workers should not expect them to be loyal to him. Such could expose workers to temptation because they have to take care of themselves and their families. It is not good to owe your workers; whether they are journalists, footballers, civil servants, you don’t need to owe them. Workers deserve their wages. So it is not good at all. You should do everything possible not to owe your workers.


What about state governments owing workers?
I mean it’s unfair. It is ungodly and unchristian. If you don’t pay workers, what do you want them to do? In fact, when I was governor, I didn’t have anything as salary arrears. Throughout my stay in Government House, I never owed anybody for one month because one thing you do as a leader is to pay your workers before any other thing. That is the first charge and, from there, you motivate them to work harder.


So, any governor that owes workers for months is not fit to be a governor. Although, some governors have said that the problem about payment of salaries stems from the many problems confronting them, that argument does not hold water because you can still sit down and arrange your budget to make the recurrent less than the capital. You give capital budget priority over recurrent.

The Nigerian Army said on Sunday that its troops had recovered a large cache of arms along Agbura-Otuoke Road in the Ogbia Local Government Area of Bayelsa State.

The troops said to be on a raid on Sunday recovered arms including two AK-47 rifles and two G3 rifles along the road which leads to Otuoke, the hometown of former President, Goodluck Jonathan.

Our correspondent learnt that the troops, while conducting a search in the house of a suspected militant leader, Emmanuel Lawson, discovered the large quantity of arms and ammunition.
The Director, Army Public Relations, Brig Gen Texas Chukwu, who confirmed the arrest, in a statement late on Sunday, said Lawson’s accomplice, one Mrs Ebikaboere Emmanuel, was arrested.

When they kept using "large cache" I thought it was like 50 AK47, 20 RPG, 70 G3, etc

pinkguy:
young man I have lived among Fulani,the is nothing like kind Fulani man an average Fulani man is aggressive and evil you you expect person that spent all his life in bushes to be kind

Elder, I have stayed with them too as a stranger and no evil befell me. Those killing people maybe sponsored

pinkguy:
George took to Facebook to hail the Fulani man. He wrote;

Yesterday heavy rain caught my colleague and I on assignment in a community in Abuja

Please sorry he forget to add on assignment by the presidency in Fulani community in Abuja

how much do buhari presidency pay these ones ....Atiku till you get sense

Sometimes we seem to accept evil report more than good. You trying to discredit the story because it didn't fall into your assumption that Fulani people are evil. For your information, there are a lot of very good Fulani people, who are peace loving and kind.

2buffagain:
Agreed.
Any girl unable to see fault in this female's actions simply exposes herself to be a useless untrained tart.

If she wanted to prove a point, she should have put the eggs back in the fridge (even if already opened) and left to go get her food elsewhere if he wanted to be stingy.

You don't then throw his food away and be looking him in the eye. That is agbero behavior. You better be ready to collect slap with that attitude.

Please educate me on this, if your guy gets upset at you and throw four eggs away, will you slap him?

Slayer1914:
Premium Times and the Hatchet Job Against Kemi Adeosun

Once again poor and shoddy investigative journalism appears to be winning. This time the victim is Kemi Adeosun, Minister of Finance.

Premium Times a few days ago ‘broke’ news alleging that Mrs Adeosun presented a forged NYSC exemption certificate. The main evidence they had was that the certificate was signed by an NYSC DG who was no longer in office as at the date on the exemption certificate.

While it is true that the late Brigadier General Yusuf Bomoi left the NYSC in January 2009, we now know that several certificates issued after that date in 2009 still bore his signature.

Several people on social media have since shared photos of their certificates issued after January 2009 (when the late Brigadier General Yusuf Bomoi) handed over to Brigadier-General M.I. Tsiga as DG of the NYSC. Are all these certificates fake or forged as well?

The DG of the NYSC does not ‘hand-sign’ every certificate by himself, just as the CBN Governor does not physically sign every currency note. No human being can do that. The certificates are printed in bulk in advance, and then filled out with the name of the recipient and other details. Up till after Gen Bomoi left the NYSC certificates bearing his signature were being genuinely issued.

The truth, sadly, is that Premium Times has goofed again. This is not the first time they are publishing falsehood about Mrs Adeosun, falsehood for which they have never apologized, even when proved wrong. They keep allowing themselves to be used as a tool in the hands of people who want to undermine Mrs Adeosun and her work as Finance Minister.

As Mrs Adeosun’s predecessor as Finance Minister, Ngozi Okonjo Iweala wrote in her new book, ‘FIGHTING CORRUPTION IS DANGEROUS’, powerful and corrupt vested interests not only kidnapped her mother, but also made plans to physically hurt the Minister. “They asked my brother to tell me to announce on national television and radio that I was resigning from my job as Finance Minister and leaving the country.” Another time some powerful people humiliated her at the State House when she came visiting with the IMF President.

Now we are witnessing the same thing, and the victim this time is Mrs Kemi Adeosun. Corruption is fighting back, and Premium Times and other newspapers are allowing themselves to be used as tools, sadly.

Even when the NYSC issued a statement on the matter, acknowledging that the Minister indeed properly applied for an exemption, Premium Times chose a false and sensational and most unprofessional headline to report the news, alleging that the NYSC had ‘disowned’ the Minister, when what the NYSC did was the complete opposite of disowning her.

Let us avoid the rush to judgement. Mrs Adeosun is the victim of powerful enemies whose toes she has stepped upon in the battle to redeem Nigeria’s finances from the hands of ghost workers, tax evaders and other financial criminals. She will overcome, as she has always done.

Was her own also done in march?
Has the minister rebutted this allegation?
Do not be too quick to discredit the paper until it proven to be false report

The DG could have signed for those passing out two months after the expiration of his term. That should be part of his duties. They spent 10 months under him

A pre-match lunch for a friendly game less than 2 weeks to the world cup? We should expect more dinners in Russia.

BTW, is that not the Minister of Finance there?

Without any lunch or dinner, Ayegbeni missed a one-on-net in South Africa during the 2010 World Cup. Without a lunch, Kaita almost killed a player in the pitch against Greece in South Africa 2010 (maybe due to the influence of tramadol, swinor, rohypnol or codeine). That action alone eliminated us from the group stage.

With all this pre-match lunch now, one of our players may shoot a penalty to the throw-in in Russia after much highness.
