ABUJA—In the spirit of reconciliation in the House of Representatives, the camp supporting Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Yakubu Dogara, has announced conceding the position of the House Leader to the camp supporting Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila.

Dogara and Gbajabiamila
But the speaker’s camp also made it clear that the nominee for the House Leader position will neither come from the South-West nor the North-East in the spirit of equity and federal character, noting that the two zones have already occupied their slots.
Addressing journalists in Abuja, yesterday, spokesman of the Dogara group Hon. Abdulmumin Jibrin, said after the reconciliatory meeting as directed by the All Progressives Congress, APC, which was headed by the immediate former speaker and Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal, the Dogara camp decided to concede to Gbajabiamila camp the position of House Leader.
He said that if the camp turned down the offer, the only option would be to conduct election on the floor of the House by the APC members in accordance with the provisions of the House Rules.
He further said that his camp did not recognise the letter from the National Chairman of the party, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, which he said did not pass through the National Executive Committee of the party and the House caucus or the recognised legal process.
He said while ceding the position of leader to the Gbajabiamila camp, it was made clear that sharing the six principal officers of the House must be in tandem with the constitution as regards the federal character, adding that it will be unfair to exclude any geopolitical zone in sharing positions.
He said: “The Governor of Sokoto State met with Femi Gbajabiamila and his group. Yesterday, he met with us and we also had a lengthy meeting, at some point heated. We wish to appreciate Mr. Speaker for tolerating all our actions at the meeting to be able to stand firm.
“Concessions were made completely against the original plan that we went to the meeting with. This morning, we received lots of phone calls, under normal circumstances we are not supposed to make a public statement on this.
“Because of the information going round and in order to put the record straight, I have been mandated as the spokesman of the group  to make some few comments.
“As regards some of the things that transpired at the meeting, of course the details would be made public when the entire process is concluded.
“We went to the meeting and you have always known our position. We believe that we did not go against any provisions of the laws of the party or the provisions of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in electing the speaker or his deputy.
“We also believe that there should be a level playing ground for everyone in terms of the occupation of the remaining offices of principal officers that has always been our position.
“But after a very lengthy meeting with His Execelleny, the immediate past speaker and Governor of Sokoto State, we were able to make a far-reaching concession and this is to allow for peace to reign in the House.
“It was very tough and of course the wise counsel of the Governor of Sokoto State on the need for a concession on peace. Three things we agreed: one, we maintain the position that we do not recognise the letter written by the party in quotes and I give you reasons.
“We have utmost respect for the chairman of the party, but that letter did not pass through the relevant organs of the party.
“It was neither approved by the National Working Committee nor the National Executive Council, not even the caucus was consulted and it was a product of one or two governors and of course the National Chairman.”
“Let me maintain the fact that we respect the national chairman and we will only respect a letter through legal organs of the party. Our position is that we do not recognise the existence of such letter.”
Continuing he said, “Secondly, the principal officers of the House must be in tandem with principle of equity and Federal Character as prescribed by the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“The 6th position that is usually occupied by the majority, the Speaker, deputy speaker, House leader deputy  house leader, the whip and deputy whip must go to the six geopolitical zones or otherwise it must reflect the principal of equity and fairness.
“To that end after the deliberation, we have agreed to concede the position of the House leader to the Femi’s group and we took this decision bearing in mind that we need peace in this house and we want to get down to work.
“In line with with equity and federal character, whoever is being nominated must not come from the Southwest and Northeast in line with our strong belief in the principle of equity and federal character,” he stated.”
The Kono State born lawmaker said the year had gone half way already and that they should be busy with the review of 2015 budget and on how far budget had been implemented.
Besides, he said that in few weeks, the House would be considering the Medium Term Expenditure Framework, MTEF! Stressing that the House has  work to do and cannot continue to waste more time talking about positions.
According to him, “We expect the Femi group to accept this concession so that we can be able to move forward.
“In the event that they do not accept, we also provided that it should be left for us to choose principal officers of the House in line with the standing rules of the House, so we have to come back and hold an election.
“The entire APC members would hold an election to elect the house leaders, If someone says he has 174 members, fine let’s hold an election and see if he actually has that majority he claims.
“Let’s hold election in line of the standing rules of the House and that is our position.”
He said that the issue of the letter from the National Chairman where some members loyal to the party were nominated as the principal officers will not be read as there was a court case instituted by some member for the letter not to be read.
He also disclosed that the North Central and the Southeast caucuses of the APC in the House have gone to court mandating the hOuse to respect the House rules as it concerned sharing of principal officers positions.
He, however, said that Rep. Gbajabiamila had contributed a lot in the House and advised him to put national interest above personal interest.

On this thread we had always look up to God during difficulty and He had never let us down.

Though, I have been paid but I cannot leave my fellow awardees that are yet to be paid until we all pray and see God's hand again.

Fellow awardees, can we all fast and pray tomorrow Friday: both those that have been paid and those expecting.

Perfect! I think your suggestions is in order! I have always like the spirit of oneness we show on this thread but my biggest disappointment is when some people get paid and they just disappear until the next money cycle is in the offing!

Another distressing fact is that some awardees don't like to network with each other. Its very for awardees to create whatsapp groups for their respective states and zones and network with each other, share ideas And pass informations across.
For the North east we h ave states and zonal whatsapp group and it has been very helpful, I even invited some people here crying for their tranche to join but they refused ( claiming big boy). We do thing together on the group and most of us have already collected our second tranche. I have had to take the pain and call an awardee we have not heard from today and asked him what was the problem and he narrated to me that he has not even triggered for second tranche because he does not know the procedures to do so. I had to explain it to him over the phone! Can you imagine! Someone is even yet to trigger and he does not even network with other awardees to have infos and latest gist! Well I don't blame him...the guy is into cattle rearing and maybe his business took him into the bush! Lol

Depending on your arrangements with him ! Do you just buy and send to him or you participate in the marketing too?

Livestock business is challenging but in the end we have to just make do with what we can get.

wingopride:
Abeg, has YouWiN started paying North East? pls I need to know 'cos might be the long awaited second batch.

Yes! We in the first batch for North East have been paid our second batch!. Mail the Youwin secretariat for your status!

sparashi16:
Congrate jeffmyson, which state?

Taraba Sir, Natures Gift to the nation.

Godwin ! I have gotten my alert and so have many in the north east! Thanks to Youwin and FG

Mohammed83:
@jeffmyson, these ur images are not worth 5m!! For 5m I expect images of grown men.

Is this worth the stress! Lol!!!

Mohammed83:
God willing before this week runs out we will know exactly what's happening with our 2nd tranche payment. It was exactly the same thing with tranche 1 payment, very few awardees in the north-east were paid with the first batch, I remember @jeffmyson was one of the lucky ones paid then and we even had an argument here because I did not believe he had been paid. The new dimension which scares me is the approval the secretariat says it's seeking. I had thought NOI had issued approval for tranche 2 funds to be released, that's why the payments commenced in the first place. In all, since we do not have the power to make the YouWIN! secretariat pay us, all we can do is continue to pray to HIM who does, and be patient.

Why is the case of North East different upon all the wahala we are facing here! We are even supposed to be the first to be paid for all the efforts we are making here in the face of difficulties! God please deliver us!!!

sparashi16:
why other Banks were never faced a problem with YOUWIN? ZENITHBANK is the only Bank that yet to pay even one person for the whole North/East Zone, why?

We here in the North East are just Observing ..... we have not being paid! Our businesses needs second tranche! We are begging Youwin to pay north East just as they have paid 5 other zones! Why is our case different?

The guy should understand that he who is putting his capital is taking a bigger risk! From what he has posted he is not taking any risk and wants a share of future profits when he is bringing nothing to the party. Agreed that he is bringing idea but in real business idea is worth nothing without capital!

I am usually sceptical of get rich quick schemes like these and nairalanders should caveat!
The capital is ratively small and I believe ifthe dividend is as the OP has posted he wwon't come online to find investors, he would have probably sold his fathers land to do the business himself and maybe introduce it to his village people only.

Don't waste your time and money exporting Nigerian honey! It will surely be rejected abroad. The biggest safety issues with our honey is that it is harvested with smokes and unsanitary! If passed throughh ttesting there will surely be salmonella and other food safety concerns. The smoke in it makes it unsuitable for exports. Be warned!

Luxuria:
PLEASE NORTHEAST AWARDEES, HAVE U GUYS COMPLAINED TO THE SECRETARIAT THAT YOU HAVE NOT RECIEVED YOUR 2ND TRANCHE?

Yes we have complained severally and they keep saying " we are working on it, you will be paid soon".

So we are watching and praying as events unfolds!!

okoji:
Jeffmyson, have you gotten yours? Are you among the first batch?

I have not gotten mine and Youwin told me I am in the first batch. In fact no awardee has been paid in the whole of the North East ( Adamawa, Taraba, Bauchi, Gombe, Yobe, Borno). I don't know what offence we committed for Youwin and Zenith Bank to treat us this way!

Denn:
been a bit off the weather.

how godwin?

North East never see Godwin ooh!! Not a single person from the 6 North East state have gotten any dime! Let's pray we get it today!

North East Youwin awardee we need to write individually to the Youwin Secretariat starting from today so that they will be aware we have not being paid! All the other zones have achieved either partial or full payments except North east that have not received any dime!

Let's make this a collective effort so that Youwin and Zenith Bank will credit us like others!

strigger:
Have u finally gotten alert @northeast?

Nope! We have not been paid! We are still expecting !

Now that Youwin has paid second tranche it is imperative and very important that every awardee have a functional website for their business and try as much as possible to use electronic platforms to market their products and services. See you all at the top.

North East awardee you need to start mailing the Youwin Secretariate ! We are not part of the 1007 paid awardee so that they will take note! Instead of us to use this long holiday weekend to plan our business expansion we are here talking about payments! 5 Zones paid and North East not included......Zenith Bank why? Youwin Why?

Bigboyz32:
Bro no worry. I think youwin is working hard to ensure everybody gets paid. Imagine them calling me around 9.30pm to ask if I hv gotten my alert.
So chill

The call was yesterday ? If so that means there is hope.

Luxuria:
Dont worry, if not today (friday) then expect it on monday 12 noon to 7pm. Theres nothing to fear.

I am already worried! Why should the case of north east be always different? I am told Zenith Bank is the source of the problem!

Does anyone know why zenith has not paid north east ? And when we might get any alert if possible?

Mohammed83:
Zenith Bank has started paying. If you have confirmed from the YOUWIN secretariat that you were processed for payment in the first batch, you will soon receive alert.

Where is the alert? Who did zenith pay today? Did zenith pay any awardee in north east today?
Not a single dime was paid by zenith bank to anybody! If you have any evidence to the contrary you can let us know! Yet again we are in the bottom pecking order!

ZENITH BANK HAS NOT PAID!

Does anyone know why Zenith Bank has not started paying ? This whole thing is becoming annoying!

The Youwin phones line never goes...even when it does ring! NOBODY picks up!

globaldream:
I av decided to send a mail to youwin secretariat
Here is a copy

Goodday.
I am an youwin three awardee. This mail is purposed to inform you that some banks refuse to disburse second tranche to the awardee alloted to them for reason best know to them, in which finding revealed that is for their business interest,. the banks in south south and south east are guilty of it. While it has been confirmed that all bank in south west and north east and north west has paid up. We hereby implore the secretariat to put a call through this bank and compel them to disburse the fund into our youwin account not latter than today. 28-5-2015.
We will appreciate the secretariat if take drastic measure on this to ensure the money is paid today. Thank.



Pls send yours, united we stand, copy the mail and send yours..

please modify your mail. North East have not been paid a dime. our bank is Zenith Bank and No awardee from North East have been paid any money.

hmbs:
My dear, its a practice with almost all the banks in 9ja.They earn float through it.I was with one if these partner banks.My colleagues, who are still made the confirmation.I don't want to go further for security reasons.Let's act fast.

I am not doubting it..what I am saying is that unless Youwin are party to this arrangement there is no way this can stand in the way. It is Youwin that have the final say and we should direct our grievances towards them as well as the banks too.

Let's act fast today and report progress on this forum because after today we don enter LONG THING!

hmbs:
My dear follow awardees, pls it has been confirmed that the banks are keeping our funds to balance their books today.Can we storm our banks today and plead with them to release our funds.Honestly,we need these funds.Our businesses are suffering.Further delay is dangerous.

If indeed this is true! This is corruption and it the banks who practise this must be exposed so that the central bank can look into this practice. How can Youwin give directives and the banks will disobey or withhold the funds ? When our businesses are on standstill with rent piling up and equipments dormant.

I suggest we also continue to call the Youwin secretariat and follow up with the banks.he who pays the Piper dictates the tune! End of story!!!

Slowchuks:
Story, i die say u forget Youwin and focus on anything, you need this money pass lol

My brother wet in I go do naaa. Since the money is now trekking, I have no option than to wait or forget it. However the pain of waiting is now unbearable since vendors must be paid salaries must be settled. Let's see if we get it today!

libertyinc1:
I think we should all be patient.since payments have started and confirmations of such payments have been received.i am sure latest next week more persons will be paid.

At this time nobody is sure of anything again! By close of business tomorrow if we are not paid I will just forget about this Youwin and focus on something else. This drama is already unbearable. Why pay some people and leave out others even when they have all being processed the same time. Something is not right!

hmbs:
Pls call the YOUWIN secretariat.

I called but same response " you will be paid when processing is done ".
