Please teach him more sense.He was busy selling okrika when Baba God was sharing

He won't want to learn. Na God hand I put him matter

Photo op. I love this man sha

On my way to Sokoto to knock some sense into Kukah's head.

This is how it should be and not a system where the chief feeds fat in Abuja without a thought of his troops. Look at the pictures well. U can see the spring in these soldier's steps and the smile on their faces. God Bless Muhammadu Buhari(the GCFR), God bless TY Buratai(The COAS), God bless the gallant men of the Nigerian army. Victory shall be ours

Leave that fool to keep wailing and lamenting. They'd keep languishing in the hangover of defeat handed their Clueless master in the last poll. Absolutely nothing is sufficient for them than Buhari's head on a spike.

Believe me bro. I pity them

OrlandoOwoh:
Please, help me add fasting and vigil. She needs them.

She seriously needs them. Well, I'll do my best for her. Afterall, if we don't take care of them wailers, who will?

We want results not pictures. Enough of this useless propaganda. Wake me up when boko haram is eliminated or their attacks stopped

If u hadn't let ur eyes and senses to be blinded by hate, you woulda seen that these pictures were snapped from a TV. You would have also read about the visit of the COAS to d frontline and the attack on his advance team by the BH. Now, don't the press go along with the COAS on such visits or should he cowardly hide his head like his predecessors and not come out and help his troops comb out the terrorists who might be around the attack proximity?

My friend, I hope you ain't praying for the continuation of this Boko Haram menace because your "Hero" couldn't take decisive actions against them.... Something a "dullard" is doing most effectively

This is a real soldier. Unlike those idiots that concerned themselves with staying in Abuja and looting. Depriving the galant troops of much needed morale and allowances and court marshaling any soldier that dared complain. This change dey sweet for body o

And the ibos will be fed with more lies and propaganda again

MizMyColi:
How To Identify APC Scam Propaganda Journalist(s)

1. Sources Close To The.....

2. Our Sources who pleaded anonymity

3. The spokespersons for the main actor in their story is always unreachable as at the time of filing the report.

4. He never responds to his calls or messages.

5. They use the terms "reportedly and allegedly" sparingly.

And finally...

6. If you read such reports with an open mind, you will notice that one thing keeps reverbating in your head...Lies Lies Lies!!!!

oya come lemme pray for you to receive sense. You really need it.

chukwudi44:
All this mgbati newspapers trying to keep the image of their inconsequential local champion alive. If Saraki became Senate President and got a vote of confidence from 81 senators without Tinubu"s support then he dosent need him.

Tinubu should even be the one trying to make peace with Saraki else his candidates would not pass the senatorial screening

Saraki has nothing to lose by ignoring or snubbing Tinubu. This propaganda is dead on arrival

Any reputable newspaper that doesn't publish d news u want to read(no matter how true the news they publish is) is a Mgbati newspaper owned by Tinubu and d APC but if u see false news from breakingtimes.com or some other unknown blog, u run around taking it as d truth. I shake my head for you. My brother abeg stop deceiving yourself. 2019 is still far away o

JAGABAN!!!

These fulani herdmen's issue is gradually getting out of hand. Just last week, a group of robbers who are specialists in ambushing motorists on a lonely expressway in Akoko Edo were arrested. Guess who they are. Fulanis. We haven't talked of their insolent attitude where they take cattle into someone's farm and graze on it as heartlessly as they want. Imagine them trying to claim a land that ain't theirs and even killing the real indigenes of the land. Time don reach make we treat these abokis f up o.

Na wa o

Thieves all of dem. Just imagine! Even this chronic debtor AregbeseOla can still laugh and be happy. Ode. All these governors you are opening kolanut stained teeth with ain't debtors like you

Less than four months after the end of the
administration of President Goodluck Jonathan,
the robust and millionaire lifestyles of known
ex-militant leaders from states of the Niger
Delta has changed tremendously. Gone are
those days when monetary rewards and multi-
million naira contracts in various forms came
their way.
It was not uncommon to see some of them
flying private and chattered flights and living
larger than life while Jonathan held sway as
president.
Theirs was more a replica of the new kids on
the block who came into sudden wealth and
decided to flaunt it with careless abandon. A
drive to the home of a typical ex-militant
leader would reveal the presence of scores of
armed mobile policemen as security aides,
escort vehicles and exotic cars in abundance.
One was also bound to meet a lot of their boys
hanging around their bosses and enjoying
choice drinks while elderly people in need of
one favour of the other thronged the house.
But with the exit of Jonathan from power
following his defeat at the polls, a lot of the ex-
militants’ lavish lifestyle has tapered off,
especially those among them who failed to plan
for the future; they have seemingly returned
to the pre-Jonathan era when they had nothing
except their monthly allowances from the
Presidential Amnesty Office.
However, few of them decided to plan ahead.
Some ventured into businesses like sand
dredging while others ventured into politics.
Bayelsa ex-militant leaders such as the second-
in-command in charge of the defunct
Movement for the Emancipation of Niger Delta
(MEND), Dr Ebikabowei Victor-Ben, known along
the creeks as BoyLoaf; Pastor Reuben Wilson,
known as Pastor Reuben; Comrade Eris Paul,
known as General Ogunboss, and Africa
Ukparisia, known as General Africa, who
hitherto enjoyed a robust lifestyle of
millionaires, have adopted quieter lifestyles.
Investigation by LEADERSHIP showed that the
defeat of the Jonathan administration, which
was the major source of revenue and
patronage, and the cancellation of the million-
dollar pipeline surveillance contracts awarded
by the Nigerian National Petroleum
Corporation (NNPC) may have got them to
realise that they have to tone down on their
lavish lifestyles.
Mujahid Asari Dokubo
The Leader of the Niger Delta People’s
Volunteer Force (NDPVF) has been one of the
most prominent latter-day militant leader to
champion the cause of the Niger Delta people.
The emergence of the Jonathan presidency was
like a payback for the ex-militant leader as a lot
of financial windfall came his way through
various means. He was a strong advocate for
the continuation of the Jonathan presidency
beyond 2015. It got to a stage he and Edwin
Clark were competing to be the major voice
agitating for Jonathan to win the 2015 elections.
However, with the defeat of Jonathan, sources
close to LEADERSHIP Weekend said he has
almost faded out of the public glare, same with
the robust lifestyle he was indulging in. In fact,
it was gathered that he now spends more time
in Benin Republic where he owns the
Amachree African University, KAAU, in addition
to the soccer academy he runs in the West
African country.
Government Ekpemupolo, alias Tompolo
Having been reduced financially by President
Muhammadu Buhari through revocation of
most of his lucrative contracts, especially the
one to Global West Vessel Specialists Nigeria
Ltd (GWVSNL) which he is the chief promoter,
Tompolo has also reduced his lavish lifestyle.
Though, he’s still being looked at as “warlord,”
sources said hundreds of his followers have
allegedly dumped him as they search for other
means of sustenance.
It was reliably gathered that the ex-militant
leader can no longer use his private jet because of
high maintenance cost. Unconfirmed sources
also said the many women that flocked around
him have thinned out.
An aide who did not want his name in print
said: “Oga Tompolo is not all that broke as
people see him at present, though he has
stopped the lavish lifestyle he was used to
when President Goodluck Jonathan was there
(Aso Villa).”
Ebikabowei Victor Ben, alias Commander
Boyloaf
Boyloaf works hand-in-hand with Gen Africa to
coordinate MEND activities in Bayelsa State
though his area of operations is in the
Ekeremor and Southern Ijaw axis of the state.
With his education and exposure, BoyLoaf is
said to have gotten a better deal out of the
Amnesty Programme and was able to build
houses in Abuja and Port Harcourt. He also has
business in shipping and dredging. Even though
he has always kept a low profile, the exit of
Jonathan has further forced him to cut down on
his public exposure
High Chief Ateke Tom
Ateke, popularly known as the ‘Godfather,’ was
one of the field commanders of MEND.
Now a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP), Godfather contested the
governorship ticket of the party but later
withdrew due to pressures from the former
First Lady, Dame Patience Faka Jonathan.
Ateke’s contribution to the success of the PDP
in the last general elections, which led to the
emergence of Governor Ezebunwo Nyesom
Wike, has made him one of the decision
makers within the party.
It is an open secret that Ateke’s nominees
made the list of members of the newly
inaugurated caretaker committees for Port
Harcourt City, Ogu/Bolo and Okrika local
government councils of the state.
He has become an institution of sorts in Ijaw
politics, has strong influence in Okrika land, and
is a leading figure in the sponsored media
campaign which discouraged youths in the state
from violence and criminality.
Others that have also toned down are: Hon Fara
Doctor Dagogo, Eris Paul alias Ogunboss, Pastor
Reuben Wilson alias Gen Pastor and
Commander Ukparasa Africa Owei, alias Gen
Africa.

*In Buhari's voice* Kworupssion has eaten deep into this country Walahi!

There are strong indications that the
Independent Corrupt Practices and Related
Offences Commission has put the permanent
secretaries in the federal ministries on its
watch list in line with the ongoing anti-
corruption war in the country.
This came on the heels of the clampdown on
wealthy civil servants by the ICPC, which had
already seized 24 properties and several cars
from three officials of the Ministry of Niger
Delta.
The affected officials are Poloma Kabiru Nuhu,
Mangset Longyl Dickson and Daniel Obah.
The ICPC Chairman, Mr. Ekpo Nta, had in a
document described the seized properties as
“excessive of the emoluments of the affected
officers.”
The PUNCH had exclusively reported on July 30
that the Federal Government’s anti-corruption
war was targeting “super rich” public officers
who had multiple properties and other assets
suspected to have been the rewards of graft.
An official of the ICPC, who spoke with
Saturday PUNCH on condition of anonymity,
said there was no way the agency would probe
“super rich” civil servants without extending its
searchlight on the permanent secretaries
heading the ministries where corrupt activities
were perpetrated.
The source said, “The permanent secretaries in
federal ministries are on ICPC watch list. We
will investigate them to ascertain whether or
not they possess questionable property built
with stolen public fund.
“If we are already investigating super wealthy
civil servants, then the permanent secretaries
cannot be left out.”
Some of the permanent secretaries suspected
to have been put on the ICPC watch list include
Mr. Sonny S. T. Echono, Federal Ministry of
Agriculture and Rural Development; Mrs.
Fatimah Nana Mede, Ministry of Environment;
Hajia Binta Bello, Ministry of Aviation; Mrs.
Rabi Shuaibu Jimeta, Ministry of Youth
Development; Mr. Dauda Shuaibu Kigbu,
Ministry of Works; Mrs. Anastasia Mabi Daniel –
Nwobia, Ministry of Finance; Ambassador Bulus
Lolo, Ministry of Foreign Affairs; Dr. Folasade
Yemi-Esan, Ministry of Information; Abdullahi
Ahmed Yola, Ministry of Justice; Dr. James
Obiegbu, Ministry of Police Affairs; and Dr.
Ezekiel Oyemomi, Ministry of Women Affairs
and Social Development.
Others are Dr. Tunji Olaopa, Ministry of
Communication Technology; Dr. Godknows
Igali, Ministry of Power; Nkechi Ejele, Ministry
of Culture and Tourism and National
Orientation; Linus Awute, Ministry of Health;
John Chukwu, Ministry of the Federal Capital
Territory; Mr. Musa Istifanus, Ministry of Water
Resources; Mr. Taiye Haruna, Ministry of
Petroleum Resources; and Mr. Mohammed
Bashir, Ministry of Transport.
Also, permanent secretaries in the Ministry of
Agriculture and Rural Development; Ministry of
Labour and Productivity; Ministry of Industry,
Trade & Investment; Ministry of Defence;
Ministry of Education; Ministry of Mines and
Steel Development; Ministry of Sports; Ministry
of National Planning; and Ministry of Niger
Delta Affairs are said to be on the watch list.
When contacted, the ICPC Resident Consultant,
Mr. Folu Olamiti, in a rather tacit manner, said,
“If ICPC is probing civil servants, are
permanent secretaries not also civil servants?”
A lecturer in the Department of Local
Government Studies, Obafemi Awolowo
University, Ile-Ife, Prof. Francis Fagbohun, said,
“There is no way we can get to the root of
corruption without starting from somewhere
and that is what I think the Federal
Government is doing. The government is just
starting from somewhere. There is no way a
civil servant will perpetrate any evil without his
political boss knowing. The permanent
secretaries in most cases are political. Most of
them have turned themselves to political
appointees. They no longer uphold that career
trend. I think it will get to them; let us just
keep our fingers crossed.
“This will also get to the ministers very soon. I
believe in the gradual process of things. My
advice is that the ICPC should not be cowed by
any ‘super’ political appointee. If the juniors
are guilty, the seniors must also be because the
whole process would have passed through
them. I want to believe it will get to them
soon.”

So, he never really had a PHD. Choi! Does this mean the presidency didn't carry out extensive checks on his background before appointment? And this is the same person that's being appointed to head a sensitive agency as the FIRS. This one go chop our money o

Saraki bit more much much more than he could chew and now, he's facing the consequences. For Buhari, he should be a father to all and let bygones be bygones in the interest of the citizens of the country who he swore to protect. Saraki, eat d humble pie, admit ur wrong, beg for forgiveness and let's all move on from this

Buy at your own risk. The civil servants should remember to put that in the agreement so that when things go down, you won't complain of not being aware that it's a stolen property. House go sweet to buy for Abuja now sha

Na only change of nomenclature and ensuring that Hajia doesn't have the type of power Aunty Patience had(without permission)

Obasanjo, just shut up! Remember you were a president for 8 years? Why didn't you make it the Nigeria of your dream then? Or is the Nigeria of your dream one where the president uses anticorruption agencies to carry out his personal vendetta against perceived political enemies? A Nigeria where billions of dollars were expended on power without any result? A Nigeria where there's no independence of the Legislature? worst part of it all is the type of individuals u imposed on us after ur 8 years. Obasanjo, u're directly responsible for the dark years of Goodluck Jonathan's rule. Sorry to disappoint you if you think Buhari will follow ur footsteps. Get ready to write long epistles/letters again cause the Nigeria of your dream is different from the Nigeria of Buhari's dream

This is good. Stop the sharp practices in the oil sector and let transparency be the keyword. Abeg make person tell NCC make them still wake up to their duties na. These Telcos are ripping us off with exhorbitant call and data charges..... With poor service quality. Abeg NCC, DPR are working make una still try work na

Truth is Amaechi was financially ok before he became governor(remember, he was an house of assembly speaker for 8 years in RIVERS state) but, Bros Amaechi, truth be told, u corner small thing o. Well, until it can be proved that you're corrupt, u remain innocent(in the eyes of the law)

That will ensure speedy trial. No time for dilly dallying. But wait o! Baba has been talking and no action yet o. Abeg start acting jare.... And don't forget. It's almost 100 days and u still haven't declared your assets o. Abeg prove them tanoids wrong and show us that your're a leader and not a politician. Time's going fa

chidi4eze:
APC would hv won in rivers state oh... Even if they didn't win d governorship... They would hv won most house of assembly seats... Rivers people luv amaechi

Story. APC would have won some house of assembly seats along with some house of reps seats and a senate seat(Magnus Abe) but majority? I doubt that

Wahala dey for Akpabio and Udom Emmanuel o. I believe Udom Emmanuel would still have won but desperation and Akpabio's influence made him him blind to reason. Well, I hope Umana wins in the tribunal to prove to Akpabio that there're some things money cannot do. We all know the elections were massively rigged.... Same with Rivers and that surprises me. Rivers and Akwa Ibom are both states that the PDP will win without breaking a sweat. Them resorting to rigging is just puzzling. I'll advice Umana and Peterside to chill sha cause if the court orders a rerun, the PDP will still win and they will only succeed in extending Wike's and Udom's tenure
