I was going to use an alternate moniker for this, but what the hell?

I'm just not happy here.

I almost feel like I'm wasting my time reading it. When I sit and listen to others talk about going to law school and practicing, I take on a 'whatever' stance. It's not my passion....funny enough I don't think my passion(s) can take me anywhere- at least not in Nigeria

I'm not passionate about law. I don't see myself in a wig and gown or a law court. Everytime I write an exam, I don't feel like I wrote enough to pass. And all I think of is serial F's or just useless grades....what's the point?

Is there really any point in studying a course you have no passion for? I know many people do it mostly because all they see is the profit in the long term, but I'm not programmed like that.

I need advice, because I'm really unhappy and I might even say depressed anytime I think of this course

SaharaReporters has obtained
documents relating to a scandalously
inflated $500 million defense
contract that President Goodluck
Jonathan awarded to Arthur Eze, a
Nigerian businessman with a shady
past, a close friend of the president
and his wife, and a major financier of
the ruling Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP).
President Goodluck JonathanOur
security sources said some officers
of the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) were
furious over the jumbo contract
described by one source as “a pure
waste.” The sources, most of them
military personnel, told our
correspondent that, in addition to its
sheer extravagance, the contract has
also saddled the Nigerian military
with helicopters that have limited or
no combat utility.
The documents obtained by our
correspondent reveal that Mr. Eze,
the chief executive of Triax, received
the gigantic sum of $466.5 million in
order to weaponize six Puma
helicopters with the aid of an Israeli
company named Elbit Systems. This
meant that each weaponized
helicopter cost close to $78 million.
“For the price of each helicopter
provided by Engineer Arthur Eze, the
Air Force could have acquired seven
top grade military helicopters,” said
one of our sources.
Our sources also noted that the haste
with which the contract was initiated,
approved and executed raised
serious questions. A memo dated
November 20, 2014 and submitted by
the Chief of Air Staff, A.N. Amosu,
revealed that Mr. Eze had on
November 4, 2014 submitted a
proposal to the office of the National
Security Adviser proposing to supply
the upgraded helicopters to the NAF.
The tone of Mr. Eze’s letter, obtained
by us, indicated that he was deeply
involved in sourcing and supplying
hardware to the Nigerian military as it
is embroiled in a fight against Boko
Haram militants.
An Air Force officer said he was
alarmed at the alacrity with which Mr.
Eze’s overinflated proposal was
approved by the NSA’s office. The
NAF followed with an equally quick
endorsement sixteen days later.
One of our sources accused
President Jonathan and Mr. Eze of
using the refusal of the US to sell
Cobra attack helicopters to Nigeria as
an excuse to engage in a large-scale
squandering of funds involving the
Federal Government and Mr. Eze’s
company, the Triax Company Nigeria
Limited. “In the US, a brand new AH
Cobra attack helicopter costs around
$12 million each,” said a source at
the NAF. He added: “That means that,
with $400 million, Nigeria could have
purchased up to 40 brand new
helicopters.”
According to the source, the Cobra
attack helicopter is one of the best
US-made helicopters. “It is highly
effective in the battlefield. It would
have given us big battlefield
advantage over Boko Haram,” he
said.
In an additional proposal, Mr. Eze’s
company sought to purchase 4,000
57mm S5 rockets, 400 80mm S8
rockets, 500 general-purpose bombs,
and 20,000 units of unguided
rockets. His company also received a
contract to refurbish three C-130
planes that had been sitting at the
hanger of the Nigerian Air Force for
several years.
A final invoice Mr. Eze submitted to
the Nigerian government showed that
he would receive $466, 500,000 to
supply six upgraded Puma
helicopters, four units of single-
seater Sukhoi Su-25K (“Frog-foot”)
Soviet-made ground attack jets, and
two upgraded Su-25UB trainers for $
330 million. In addition, he would
receive $14 million for the shipping
of platforms/ground support/line
replacement of the six Puma
helicopters; $44 million for some
arms and ammunition earlier
proposed; $37 million for the
maintenance of C-130 engines, and $
40 million for unspecified armaments
for the NAF.
Our military sources stated that Mr.
Eze’s invoice for the supply of the
refurbished aircraft was massively
inflated by international and Nigerian
standards.
Several of the sources said Triax
delivered the substandard equipment
after Mr. Eze further padded the cost
of the refurbished helicopters and the
C-130. The sources revealed that,
since February 15, 2015, when Chief
of Air Staff Amosu showed off the
helicopters and C-130 planes, none
of the aircraft has been deployed
even once to fight Boko Haram
militants. “They are not in any
combat-ready condition,” one officer
fumed. “We are looking at a total
waste of money for no good reason.”
SaharaReporters could not ascertain
from Mr. Amosu whether the Air
Force had taken delivery of the other
items listed on the invoice Mr. Eze
had signed and submitted to the
NSA’s office.
Mr. Eze’s partners in the defense
deals is Elbit Systems, an Israeli
company that has been involved in
several scandalous defense contracts
in Nigeria, including a multimillion
dollar internet spying project.
Our sources wondered why the
Nigerian government, which is in a
critical stage of counter-insurgency
operations against Islamist group
Boko Haram, would strike such an
overinflated deal with Mr. Eze’s firm
to purchase antiquated helicopters
and other equipment that were
virtually discarded by Romania.
One clear answer may be found in
the fact that Mr. Eze is one of the
biggest personal financiers of Mr.
Jonathan’s re-election. The
businessman, who also controls
huge interests in oil fields both in
Nigeria and other West African
countries, has been funneling
millions of dollars into Mr.
Jonathan’s campaign, said an insider
PDP source. The businessman is
extremely close to Mr. Jonathan and
is reportedly well liked by First Lady
Patience Jonathan because of his
lavish presents to her, including
million dollar gifts.
Mr. Eze is a big-spending billionaire
who is an expert at ingratiating
himself with those in power. During
the brutal dictatorship led by the late
General Sani Abacha, Mr. Eze became
one of the closest confidantes of the
general and his wife. He received a
huge windfall when Mr. Abacha
handed him the $120 million contract
for rural electricity and water projects
in the southeastern states. Even
though the contract sum was
borrowed from the African
Development Bank, Mr. Eze pocketed
the money without doing any of the
projects, a scandal that led to the
firing of the bank’s chief executive.
At the height of Mr. Abacha’s
repression, Mr. Eze used to fly
traditional rulers from the southeast
on frequent visits to pledge loyalty to
the dictator in Abuja. The Triax
executive even stated once that he
would go into exile if Mr. Abacha
gave up power to an elected
government.
Mr. Eze warmed his way to President
Olusegun Obasanjo. As Mr. Obasanjo
sought to change the constitution to
extend his tenure, Mr. Eze was a
vociferous supporter of the scheme.
His closeness to President Jonathan
and his wife has brought him more
riches through inflated contracts and
great political clout. At the urging of
Mr. Jonathan and his wife, the PDP
national headquarters in Abuja
allowed Mr. Eze to determine most of
those announced as winners of PDP
primaries for Federal legislative seats
in the southeast, but especially in his
home state of Anambra. In most
cases, the businessman’s candidates
were declared winners of primaries
that were either not held or were
heavily manipulated.

30 REASONS WHY BUHARI IS FAR
BETTER THAN JONATHAN. 30 reasons
why you should stop asking me why
I'm campaigning for Buhari instead of
Jonathan.
1, Jonathan says with government
privatisation of power, generation and
distribution companies will ensure
regular power supplies in the future;
Buhari says the mechanism of
privatisation must be functional and
effective to provide proper checks and
balances. Buhari favours the
exploration of non-oil sector, says
economic diversification is the key to
addressing falling global oil prices.
2, As PTF Boss, Buhari refused to get
paid while serving, because he said
he was already drawing a pension
from the same government.
Jonathan's wife was collecting
allowance as First Lady while
collecting another one as Perm. Sec.
in Bayelsa.
3, Buhari was commissioned at just
19yrs of age, he grew through several
offices and became head of state at
41, the same age Jonathan started
politics. Buhari has been well
groomed to be a leader at an early
age. On the other hand, fate has been
carrying Jonathan, but he didn't have
proper political education especially
when he was young. And a man
cannot learn when he's too old.
4, Buhari has a visceral dislike for
corruption, but Jonathan does not
even know what corruption is, saying
stealing is not corruption.
5, Buhari has a knack for ignoring
unproductive criticism and feels
neither threatened nor moved by it.
He is not one of such politicians that
display so much pettiness and
hostility that is simply not productive.
But many times we've seen Jonathan
overshoot, making unpresidential
statements out of emotions.
6, Jonathan has not done one single
thing for Rivers State, but Buhari will
implement UNEP Report on Ogoniland
and represent a fresh opportunity for
Rivers people.
7, Buhari is significantly more
experienced, he's had the time to
ruminate on some of his past choices
and become wiser by them. Jonathan
has been moving from office to office
but is still inexperienced, he's still
repeating the same mistakes and not
learning from them. Experience is
about the knowledge and skill
acquired in a period of doing
something.
8, Buhari dealt decisively with the
dangerous Islamic terrorist group,
Maitatsine, that rose up in his time,
Jonathan has spent 6 years playing
hide-and-seek with Boko Haram.
9, Buhari is a better liberal than
Jonathan, He's already embraced all
those who wronged him in the past,
but Jonathan remains eternally
vindictive.
10, Buhari is the
only former or present President of
Nigeria that does not own a property
or land in Abuja.
11, Buhari returned excess money
spent to the purse of the government
on his return from oversea training as
a military officer. Can Jonathan do
that?
12, As PTF Boss, Buhari's
achievement in the educational sector
is still felt today, unlike Jonathan who
gave licences for many federal
universities that only exist on the
back pages of newspaper.
13, A president is not he who can do
everything, but he who can get the
right people to do things for him.
Buhari surrounds himself with
competent people, but Jonathan said
he has bad advisers. Even Jonathan's
speech is full of errors, his speech
writers are quacks.
14, Buhari's historic achievement in
road construction as PTF boss has
remained unrivalled, even when
compared with the 16 years of the
PDP government. Jonathan can't even
finish the East-West road.
15, As PTF Boss, Buhari's
achievement in the health sector
remains unrivalled, but under
Jonathan health workers have been
going on incessant strike. It is
criminal to completely neglect the
health sector in a country like Nigeria.
16, Buhari sentenced
the corrupt leaders in Nigeria to
prison, but Jonathan has not
convicted one person for corruption.
The highest Jonathan achieved was a
fine of 750, 000 naira For someone
who admitted to stealing 23 billion
naira. I bet the man paid the money
from his atm machine.
17, Buhari reduced inflation from 23%
to 4% through fiscal discipline, but
under Jonathan, inflation became
highest after he blundered by
increasing the cost of energy
consumption.
18, Buhari is more persistent than
Jonathan. Prove is Buhari kept
running for president even when he
failed, but Jonathan failed to
prosecute subsidy thieves because
according to him, it's not easy. We
need a persistent man to fight
corruption, not a man who will
chicken out at the first sign of failure.
19, Buhari has cult followership, most
agent of change in history have cult
followership. Buhari does not need to
rent crowd for his rallies, but
Jonathan can not host any rally
without renting crowd, which shows
he's lost the people's support. A man
who has lost the people's support
cannot bring change.
20, Buhari is a general in the Army, he
can not outsource military duties to
militant. Jonathan empowers militant
and they are responsible for the high
level of cultism and insecurity in the
south-south.
21, Buhari is trustworthy, Pastor
Tunde Bakare said of him, "All I need
from Buhari is his word, I can take it
to the
bank". Jonathan on the other hand
has said many things that he never
does. In 2011, he made lots of
promises to people, and disappointed
all of them when it mattered.
22, A good leader discovers people,
Buhari was the one who head-hunted
Dora Akunyili to OBJ, Jonathan has
not discovered one single person
whom the nation can celebrate for his
or her integrity.
23, Buhari is proudly married to a
beautiful damsel and completely
stands out in the family front
compared to Jonathan who, with all
due respect, looks to be the wife of
Madam P.
24, Buhari birthed and supervised the
establishment of the existing
refineries in NIGERIA. It is a serious
disservice that a Niger Delta Jonathan
has not made one single improvement
in the oil sector.
25, Buhari is matured and older, he's
at an age where the only thing that
appeals to him is leaving a legacy.
The only legacy Jonathan would've
left is an acceptable electioneering,
but he's failed now with the Ekiti Gate
and recent events surrounding this
election.
26, Buhari will not be controlled by
his wife or women, he can't even be
controlled by others. Jonathan is
controlled by his wife and the cabal
that sponsored his election.
27, Buhari is decisive, Jonathan drags
on and on before he finally does one
thing, often time when it's too late.
28, Buhari's cook and driver for
several years are Christians, Jonathan
only pay lip-service to religious
tolerance, I haven't seen the evidence
in his personal life.
29, Buhari is a better christian than
Jonathan. He does not drink, does
not commit adultery. He refused to
register Nigeria as a member of the
OIC and banned government
sponsorship of pilgrimages to Mecca.
Jonathan on the other hand attends
the Brotherhood Of the Cross and star,
I don't have anything against them,
but Christians in Rivers State refused
to vote for Isokariari in 1999 because
they said O.O.Obu is not a christian
organisation. Jonathan is the first
President to lead Nigerian delegation
to the Organization of Islamic
Countries in February 2013. He has
spent an average of $14 billion on 26,
000 Haji pilgrims annually from 2010.
30, Buhari in his time showed know-
how and that's why he accomplished
a lot in just 20 months, but Jonathan
sets committees after committees and
never implements their
recommendations.
