TonyeBarcanista:
By TonyeBarcanista


I read the statement credited to Presidential Spokesman Segun Adesina advocating that President Muhammadu Buhari, his boss should seek reelection in 2019 and even assured him of victory.

One of the problems with public administration in this country is the attitude of those around the corridors of power and their shameless sycophancy. It is only a sycophant that will suggest that a president, that not only failed woefully within two years of assuming power but also is caught up with the challenges that comes with his age as a 74 years old.

FEMI STATEMENT INSULTING ON NIGERIANS
I find it insulting on the intelligence of Nigerians that instead of the President Aide to advice his boss to consider bowing out in honor in 2019 if he wouldn't for the sake of his ego step down now, Femi instead is already pushing him to seek reelection, thereby exposing the President to further ridicule and a potential disgraceful defeat.

For the sake of posterity, the President has been battling ill-health since the first quarter of 2016. He has gone on medical trips to London for a record 5 times and spent a cumulative 82 days for this cause between the said period and now, the longest being the 50 days he spent in the first quarter of this year 2017.

WE CAN'T CONTINUE TO FUND HIS MEDICAL BILL:
In September 2016 alone, Buhari media Aide Shehu Garba admitted that the President spent a whopping N20,000,000 to treat his ear alone, even though Nigerians believed that the money expended was in the region of £3-£6Million, yet the quoted amount is too exorbitant when one consider the high level poverty rate in the country and the fact that N1,000,000 is considered a luxury for an average Nigerian. More worrisome is the fact that the President men never showed invoices or receipt to back up their N20,000,000 claim.

Only a couple of days ago, government spokesman Alhaji Lai Mohammed came out to tell Nigerians bluntly that the administration will not disclose what was expended on the President in his 50 days medical sojourn in the UK, a statement any rational being will consider insulting considering that the administration came on the change mantra and pledged transparency, as well as the existing Freedom of Information Act that was passed and practised during the PDP administration of President Goodluck Jonathan.

We cannot afford to be paying from the meagre resources of the country for the unending health challenges of the President. It is a shame that even the President admitted of returning to London to continue where his doctors stopped and Nigerians money in the range of millions will be expended on that trip. Such a lifestyle cannot be sustained for another 2 years not to talk of an additional 4 years.

BUHARI'S 2019 EXIT IS SACROSANCT
I wish to add that Nigeria constitution grants executive power on the President, it therefore means that the President must up and fit to perform his mandate, there is no room for part time or ceremonial presidency in Nigeria and we can't smuggle it in. It is either the President quit and face his health challenge or he remains in power and honorably bow out at the expiration of his mandate in 2019, this is what Nigerians expect of him, this is what is fair to him.

The President must bow out in 2019, he has made history by leading the country as both a military man and a civilian, he has made history has the first opposition politician to defeat a sitting president and ruling party in Nigeria, but he has largely failed in his duties, his health is posing a big challenge both to him and to the purse of Nigeria, the only honourable thing is for him to exit after the expiration of his term in 2019. Anything other than this will lead to his disgrace at the poll in 2019. Nigerians are prepared for this patriotic task.







May God Bless Us All And Bless Nigeria will

But it was saraki that suspended him nau. It was d senate. Which comprises of more than a 100 person.

This is what true progressive minds have been clamoring for—respect for rule of law and due process.

I'd keep on saying it. EFCC under Magu is nothing but a vindictive, compromised and a fiery tool of oppression unleashed by the government on those who stand up against their sheer idiocy and excesses!

Thank goodness for our learned Justices.

If Dino Melaye was an audience he would say he bagged another degree.

I thought we are done with Dino Melaye'scertificate/graduation saga? Why posting all these pictures again?Abeg, it's Andy Uba's time, let him enjoy his own time jare!

freeze001:
Does Falana mean that the NASS does not or cannot have an internal disciplinary mechanism applicable to its members? Is that not what the independence of the NASS is about? Is he also going to say the NJC has no power to investigate petitions made on judges and make its pronouncements before further action is taken because they are also subject to the provisions of the Constitution?

The NASS must be and is in fact able to activate an internal investigation and disciplinary mechanism for its members particularly on the conduct of any member as in the case of Ali Ndume.

Every Nigerian has numerous bank accounts.

Why the heck is that a problem?

If he has a corruption case say he has a corruption case. Don't make it look as though it's a crime to hold multiple accounts

Wonders why APC controls senate is acting like an opposite to BUHARI's Government....:

well i don't blame Saraki and Co, i blame Buhari for saying he is ready to work with anybody, he asked for it and now he is getting it. If Buhari likes he should keep acting like nothing is happening until he wakes up one day and hear he himself has been impeached by d senate,...: Afterall dis is exactly d same "i don't care feeling" he exhibited before IBB overthrew his Government in d 80s.

luvinhubby:

The senate is an institution/arm of govt that deserves the respect of all.

The senate committee on ethics and privileges has suspended its former leader, Ali Ndume for failing to conduct proper investigation before making allegations against the senate president, Bukola Saraki and Dino Melaye. The senate also cleared Saraki and Dino Melaye of any wrongdoing.

Here is the Committee's report on statements obtained from Ali Ndume on the alleged imported SUV & Dino's certificate issue.:

1. Dino Melaye graduated from Ahmadu Bello University & passed his courses.

2. VC Ahmadu Bello also says Dino Melaye was admitted and graduated in the year 2000.

3. He presented his result & served.

4. He changed his name from Daniel to Dino Melaye and the VC ABU confirmed it.

5. The dealer said he was not consulted by Bukola Saraki or Nigerian Senate to import the car.

6. The car had been cleared since 2015 and the allegation on @bukolasaraki is cooked up.

7. Ali Ndume being a former Senate Leader failed to conduct proper investigation before his allegations.

The Committee in their recommendations

1. Suspend Senator Ali Ndume and notes that dilligence should be the watchword

2. The Suspension starts today, 29th Match, 2017 to last for 181 Legislative days.

3. The signed report is laid before the DSP.

DSP, Ike Ekweremadu while speaking at the plenary, said "Lessons has been learnt from this, and going forward we should investigate matters first before drawing conclusions"

He then put the question and reduced Ali Ndume's suspension to 6 months

The Selecao reached Russia 2018 with four games to spare after a 13-match unbeaten run
Brazil became the first country to qualify for the 2018 World Cup on Wednesday, as the Selecao's win and Uruguay's loss cinched a berth in Russia.

Tite's side joins host Russia as the only two teams with a spot in next summer's showpiece locked up. Russia is automatically in as the host nation.
Brazil defeated Paraguay 3-0 on Wednesday evening, then watched as Peru's 2-1 victory over Uruguay later in the night officially sealed the Selecao's place in Russia.

The 2014 World Cup host lost its first game in CONMEBOL qualifying to Chile, but has not lost in the 13 subsequent matches. The stellar run has Brazil sitting on 33 points after 14 matches, with 10 wins, one loss and three draws.
With four games remaining in South American qualifying, Colombia, Uruguay and Chile occupy the remaining three guaranteed World Cup spots. Argentina, in fifth place, would have to qualify for Russia via a playoff with an Oceania side.
Brazil's stellar run has helped bring back hope after the host nation's 7-1 loss to Germany at the 2014 event.
