Politics / Throwback: Here’s What Buhari’s Spokesman Wrote About Saraki In 2013 [MUST READ] by isaactolu: 9:46am On Sep 26, 2015

Former Kwara State governor and now senator representing Kwara Central, Dr. Bukola Saraki, was guest of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) earlier this week. According to reports, he was quizzed for many hours, and later allowed to go home.

What questions did Saraki have to answer? His role in the collapsed Societe Generale Bank of Nigeria, where he was an Executive Director, and where depositors lost money in billions. Again, he was said to have been grilled on how he managed the finances of Kwara State as a two-term governor.

Naturally, the fact that Saraki was quizzed by the EFCC should not have raised any dust. If he did things that demanded explanations while he held those two former positions, then he should be grilled. No one is above the law, and the fact that he is being questioned does not tantamount to automatic guilt.

But there is this buzz going round about Saraki and his role in the fuel subsidy payments saga. Last year, he had raised a motion in the Senate, seeking an investigation into the N240 billion budgeted in the 2011 Appropriation Act for fuel subsidy. Some people say it has put him permanently in the Black Book of certain powerful forces in government.

Saraki, chairman of the Senate Committee on Environment and Ecology, had pointed out that the sum of N240 billion had been budgeted to subsidize petroleum products in 2011, but that more than N1.2 trillion was actually spent by the end of that year. The disclosure sparked off spiral effects, leading to the prosecution of a number of oil marketers today.

But in Nigeria, whistleblowers often land in trouble, particularly when the whistling is against the Establishment. Stories making the rounds say Bukola Saraki is now paying the price for not learning to keep his leaking mouth shut. That is why first the Special Fraud Unit (SFU) of the Nigeria Police was first unleashed against him, and now the EFCC.

Now, let’s look at the content of the squeal by Saraki, for which he’s paying dearly today. His motion stated that the sum of N771 billion was spent, which was 700% above the budgeted sum for subsidy in 2011. He added that if the trend continued, N1.2 trillion would have been spent by just one agency of government in one year, exceeding the total capital budget of N1.1 trillion for that fiscal year.

As if determined to talk himself into trouble, Senator Saraki suggested the setting up of a committee to investigate how the excess funds were sourced. He added that although N20 billion was set aside for subsidy on monthly basis in the 2011 Appropriation Act, a total sum of N165 billion was expended in August 2011 alone, out of which NNPC got N88 billion, and independent marketers got N77.6 billion.

Again, he observed that although N240 billion was budgeted for the entire year, N391 billion had been spent at August ending.

Saraki had asked for trouble, and he got it. He had unsettled a colony of wasps, and he was about to be stung till kingdom come.

Based on his motion, civil rights activists and other Nigerians put pressure on the Federal Government, which eventually asked the EFCC to investigate the matter, and prosecute those culpable. A number of those fingered in the shady deals are on trial today.

And did Saraki live happily ever after? The buzz claims that it was when his troubles began. The SFU was first sent after him, and he was declared wanted for his roles in the mismanagement of the Societe Generale Bank of Nigeria (SGBN), which had led to the license of the financial outfit being withdrawn in 2005.

Again, this week, the EFCC struck. After a disquieting lull in the activities of the commission, it suddenly remembered that Saraki was there, and pulled him in for questioning on Monday. Is the EFCC on to something concrete, or is this part of the classic way in which government hounds its opponents?

I admit. Depositors lost billions in SGBN, and I remember that the then Kwara State governor, Mohammed Lawal (now deceased) had said the money was deployed by the Saraki family to unseat him from office, and plant Bukola in power.

But it is now 10 years since the man became governor, and eight years since the bank crumbled. Is it not long enough to put a closure to the matter? How long did it take to investigate Bernard Madoff over his Ponzi scheme, through which he defrauded people of billions of dollars in the U.S?

Why then is the SGBN matter a kind of albatross hung round Saraki’s neck anytime he talks or acts out of turn? Nigeria should really learn to do things differently.

While serving as governor, it was said that Saraki waived his immunity, and allowed himself to be questioned on the SGBN matter. So, why is there nothing conclusive yet?

And if the man fiddled with the money of the state he governed, he has been out of office for more than two full years. Is it not long enough a time to build a watertight case and haul him before the courts?

If Saraki did not talk out of turn on petroleum subsidy, would he not be in the good books of the government today? Or does he have more information on the subsidy scam that some people are afraid of? That is the bane of our country. You are chummy with the powers-that-be only if you don’t rock the boat. If you do, a price is put on your head. This country sef!

Dygeasy: That is the norm isn't it. They only put all the contestants on probation once and that was the Wizkid Vs Davido night. According to them it was hard to decide who the best were. Mummy J clearly protested if you watched the show. It wasn't about MTN. Your point isn't very valid.
Do you follow the show at all? I doubt that, cos if you do you will know that since that day you were referring to up till now, they have been putting all the contestants on probation. The presenters even specifically mention it that "from now henceforth all the contestants will be on probation and only your vote can save them". That was the 3rd week and it was even mention in the write-up so o?

Dygeasy: What then is the point you're trying to make? Are you asking for them to scrap public voting?
Let them go back to the previous system when next season starts. Let the judges put the worst performances on probation like before and let them be save through the process they use to use not this one that they will put every contestant on probation

macklef: I agree with ur analysis, sentiments will ruin d quality of the show, thats what made eyo be among the top 5 then. We all know eyo could not sing well, he was always on probation,
Because he had people who always voted for him, he was there till d last day. Even manned 3rd, where ochuko and yetunde were far better than him.
If its let out to the public its not good.
you got the point,there is no way I will have a relative/friend as 1 of the contestants and vote for another contestant even if am fully aware they are way better than him/her

TV/Movies / How MTN Is Killing The Quality Of Project Fame West Africa With Greediness by isaactolu: 9:22pm On Sep 18, 2014
MTN is one of the most innovative and creative brand in Nigeria, I know a lot of you have issues with them (including me) but that does not deny the fact that this company has been proven time and again to be miles ahead in creativity and innovations. From their advertisements, their value added services, community projects to their talent hunts and reality shows am sure you will agree with me that they are a genius or let me say they have some genius handling these areas because in some other areas, hmmm you and I know MTN ‘na wash’. A lot of us still remember the“Chris, where is the phone” advert not to talk of the more recent Saka I don port ooo advert, the truth be said MTN makes us enjoy watching adverts on TV, not to talk of ‘Who Want To Be A Millionaire’ show and their Project Fame West Africa is undoubtedly the best among its peers.

Project Fame West Africa (which I will refer to as PFWA henceforth) is the best talent development reality TV show in West Africa. PFWA has produced some of the country’s finest musicians since its inception 7 years ago and all, I mean all of it past winners have gone on to become hits in the music industry, from Iyanya, Chidinma, Monica and recently Olawale, you will agree with me that PFWA has always produced stars.
Have you ever wait for a minute to examine why PFWA always produce stars that after the show make their marks and become popular in the music industry whereas rival TV shows like Glo Naija sings, Etisalat’s Nigerian Idol repeatedly fail to match such feat? You will observe that we don’t even get to remember the names of past winners of these rival shows whereas we can still vividly remember who the fourth runners up of like 3 seasons ago of PFWA was.
PFWA has become this successful simply because of its structure of operation what we can call its Modus Operandi. Rival shows all have the same structure which differs from PFWA structure and that is why they are not as successful. PFWA is structured in such a way that it will always produce the best from the bests.
We have a panel of judges, the faculty and the contestants. The faculty gives each contestant a task to do, a song to perform and they also coach and tutor them so as to get them to give the best performance possible. All the contestants perform at the show where they are scrutinized by the judges pointing out their errors and areas they need to improve on. The judges then select the 4 worst performance of the day and put them on probation. From these 4 contestants, the viewers will save a contestant; the faculty one and the other contestant will save 1 the other contestant not saved will exit the show.

If you look at this structure properly you will notice that it is guaranteed to produce the best out of the bests. A very good contestant is likely never to be on probation throughout the show- we have seen this in past seasons, examples include Monica, Chidinma etc. But this season MTN just came up with the greedy idea of putting all the contestants on probation after the 3rd week. This act will surely increase MTN’s revenue from voting but it will kill the quality of the show as it is the contestant with the highest number of votes that get to remain in the competition cos we all know that anybody that will vote due to the high cost of the SMS charge will only vote for his/her friend or relative among the contestants regardless of whether he/she is aware that the person is good or not. In other words, I can’t have a friend or relative among the contestants and not vote for him/her even if I realize there are better contestants in the show.


What this will result into is producing the contestant with the highest no of rich friends and relatives (who could afford the high cost of voting) as winner instead of the producing the best contestant as winner. This is the system that rival shows are using that is making them never to produce a true star. MTN following this system will surely increase their purse but will speedily kill the quality of the show.
And we are already experiencing this in the exit of Shola (I know you all agree that he is by far better than some of the contestants left in the competition). Just look at the scenario that put Geoffrey, Shola, Christian and Daniella on probation believe you me if the original system had been used, none/just one of them would have been on probation.


MTN will truly make money from this new system but at the same time they will kill the quality of the show, it is now left for them to either choose to pursue money or the quality of the competition.

Hello that is not the kind of bra I'm selling. Abba cant you see the photo? it's very obvious now, you are very funny. maybe you should search well and check the pictures well and be sure before you do something like this next time.
Look at the bra I listed above carefully, search it through out the web for the cheapest price add shipping price and see if you can ever beat that #1700. And for your information the type of bra you posted the link above, I can give you for just #500: do the math, add shipping and see whether you can beat that also.

That price is the cheapest you can get presently in this country. In fact it is a promotional price. We are talking about imported self adhesive silicone bra not the regular bra
