Ladyexcellency,

You hate APC so much you can't even differentiate between the names, na wah oo......

Read SLOWLY,its FASHOLA not FAYEMI

Ekiti state not lagos state. ...

& for your info PDP was in power then abi the 2014 pass you too .

Oh, my bad, EFCC had only yahoo boys' time then !!

Bye!!

What's the difference in relationship to your comment that I quoted. You fake Change chanter and anti-democrat.

Fayemi and Fashola are both former APC Governors and now Ministers.

You hid your accused and tell me to bring mine for sacrifice, you hypocrite

modath:
Present the kind of evidence of transaction that young lawyer did against Akpabio & put it in public domain if EFCC is not doing the needful...& Fashola will get the necessary treatment...

Borehole & website are not enough indictment, they can be explained away.....

There is a difference between abuse of office & direct misappropriation of funds.....

People need to learn how to fight without making noise.

You mean this one is not enough?


Alleged N20bn Fraud:group Drags Fayemi, Others To EFCC, ICPC

The Save Ekiti Coalition (SEC), which made this allegation, wrote petition dated September 26, 2014 to the EFCC and ICPC and the petition was submitted in Abuja on September 29, 2014.

The petition signed by SEC Secretary, Comrade Oke Ayodele was titled; “Complaint of fraudulent practices against Ekiti State Governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi and others: call for investigation and prosecution.”


The group said the frauds were perpetrated through N2.6 billion construction of new civic centre, N383.9m earthwork for new governor’s office, diversion of State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB) and Local Councils funds through contracts worth N4.2bn, inflation of road contracts worth over N10bn and diversion of N1.2bn FADAMA fund.

The petition read in part; “Contract for the construction of a New Civic Centre was awarded to TIANJIN-YUYANG Construction Eng. Limited on August 30, 2012 at the cost of N2, 573,584,395.75, while Consultancy on the construction was awarded to CASA Nig Ltd on June 11, 2012 at the cost of N137, 611,325.07.

“While the Project contractor was paid 25% of the contract sum in 2012, why was the consultant paid 80% of the contract sum?

“Using the State Public Works Corporation (PWC), rehabilitation 5km township roads were embarked upon in each of the 16 LGs. Contracts for the rehabilitation of these roads were awarded without any input from the respective LGs while fund for the project was deducted from the

“In 2010, the World Bank in collaboration with the Federal Government released $7.5m (about N1.2bn) for FADAMA III Project. The State Government was expected to provide counterpart fund of N100m. FADAMA III was for LIVESTOCK farmers. “However, the N100m counterpart fund was not provided by the State government until 2013.

“Instead of using this fund for the purpose for which the World Bank and FG released it, the State Government set up a scheme called Youths Commercial Agriculture Development Programme (YCAD) and used the FADAMA III grant from the World Bank and FG to fund it.

6-10 YCAD farmers were purportedly given N6 million each while FADAMA farmers, who registered FUGs of Ten (10) farmers collectively applied for six hundred and ninety thousand Naira only (N69,000.00 per farmer) were left unfunded.

“There were just 142 YCAD members, but the government claimed they were 15,000. “The government also claimed that it bought NINE Tractors at N98m and constructed abattoir for N18m. However, the tractors claimed to have been bought with N98m were the ones supplied to Ekiti State by the federal government during the immediate past administration of Engr Segun Oni.

“Also, the N100m counterpart fund paid by the State government into FADAMA’s ECO Bank, Ado-Ekiti account was later returned to the government coffers.

“For FADAMA IV, a sum of $10.5m (about N1.7bn) was released in August, this year by the World Bank in collaboration with the FG for cassava plantation. Moves are now being made to siphon this fund.”

oh! really?

maybe its just the way PDP started the fight against Ameachi. the world saw what Ameachi did to PDP and the treat to his life.

so if the authentic petition is not honoured it then means that APC does not want PDP to help them in this fight against corruption..

so long as PDP is alive Ameachi must fall or PDP will die final

After all gej and his administration didnt declared their assets and their dumb supporters/followers hailed them .

The decision is meant for him to decide

You are just a miserable sycophantic psycho.

This is a new government that was elected to do things differently.

The government belongs to all Nigerians and transparency is a key to good governance and a veritable tool in the war against corruption.

You don't have more stake in Nigeria than anybody hence stop acting irresponsibly and be liberal in thought.

Who expects Saraki's witchhunt to be dispensed in 2 Court appearances?

Is like these APC sycophantic psychos are expecting too much from their misrule, padi-padi vindictive use of judiciary, protection of APC looters and compromised INEC officials who collected bribe to rig in favour of APC?


Hypocrites

Are you blind?

That Anambra State is the 10th oil producing State is not under contention.

What you and Kogites are asking fo is to be listed as 11th and not 10th which Anambra has occupied.

abu12:
[size=16pt]Anambra is not among oil producing state, goodluck jona suspended anambra state, till when NBC settle the issue and they are yet 2come out with their report. Buhari will do d needful very soon, kogi will be listed as d 11th oil producing state, goodluck only deceive anambra people, they are not the owner. [/size]

trapQ:
And you're not talking trash??

Who is the president of U.S.A and Who are the minorities there?? As a president, like I said, you have immunity to do whatever you want to, as long as it contributes to the well being of the people. Nobody has no Damn right to question you because of the "veto" power you possess.

If politics didn't favour the minority, Obama would've never been president, and GEJ too. The only reason he didn't win the previous elections was a result of 6 yrs of incompetence and cluelessness which people got fed up off.

Stop talking trash Mr Man.

The NASS withheld the budget for Nigerian Stock Exchange because the President refused their demand to sack Arunma Otti and the agency had to operate with zero budgetary allocation and donations from stakeholders.

The NASS owns the national purse and may refuse certain expenditures the President includes in the budget - Fact

Spending unbudgeted fund is impeachable offence.

trapQ:
The northerners would've blocked nothing. GEJ was just too weak to be president. As a president and number 1 citizen of a country, you have immunity. Nobody would've dared question his actions while still on seat.

Stop talking trash.

First class scholarship scheme was suspended by the HoR because no Northerner made the list.

The PIB wasn't pass because of what host communities will get and secondly when the NASS agreed to consider the bill, they change oil host communities to mean the whole Nigeria.

Nigeria's politics doesn't favour the minorities in the mist of ravening parasites

The truth is that the Northerners would've blocked any budget totaling $1.4billion for Ogoni land and moreover these evil men shouting GEJ would've called him unprintable names and definitely kick against it.

It is the IPPIS system which shuts down after officials attempted to divert the salaries of workers.

This gross mistake was purposefully done to take away the credit from Dr Iweala and Jonathan's initiative and institutionalized system against corruption hence they attributed it to TSA.

Evil Souls and propagandists

aresa:
Silly village biafrans are crying for freedom and secession while at the same time hating on other people fighting for the same thing they are fighting for.

This is what you get with ignorants, religious bigots, depthless and shallow losers with zero sense of their own history and place in human realities and space.


Sucks to be you losers for real..

The village activist whose opinions aren't solicited appears to support his fanatical umma who desire to wipe Israel of the map since time immemorial

Preaching hate against the Jews in mosques according to Koran makes Israel to be proactive and futuristic in defense.

Never again will Jews be slaughter like fowls without a fight.

The issue here is that no past governor should face EFCC or ICPC before Amaechi.

Free Amaechi or shield him from prosecution, then do likewise for all his colleagues - this is fair judgment.

This is why I like rule of law.


If this decision was on Saraki, the supporters of this verdict willl mourn while the antagonists will rejoice.

Nigeria is lost with its citizens

The same way all politicians in Nigeria are innocent yet Buhari and APC condemned them as corrupt using the cash and carry journalists they corrupted.

Please, what is derailing when my comments bother on my dissatisfaction with the massive corruption in the media?

The truth hurts.


I can't understand why the evil man is being glorified by you goons?

Which corrupt politician is he better than?

We can no longer trust what we read from the media because Tinubu wants to control Nigeria by investing his corrupt loots on media.

The worst is hypocrite like you can't see any bad in him yet you want others prosecuted and jailed.

Nigeria get Journalists?


Cash and carry media. Tell me one Journalist in Nigeria that can resist N20,000,000 kickback to jettison a damning unsponsored report from Nigerian Politicians?


70% of Nigerian reporters have tasted Tinubu's gratification directly or otherwise at one time or the other hence they have been Jagabanized

Tinubu this tinubu that...una nor dey tire. He is an Amala south west politician but you wailers can not do without mentioning his name even in your nightmares and dream. So Tinubu is so powerful that he controls thr PDP too, he even sent this one to write the petition.

Is like you are a bitter soul.

You made career from GEJ this and that but want to shield Tinubu.

Is Tinubu your god? Or better still, is Tinubu Mohammed (PBUH)?

The only difference is that one is Yoruba that needs media protection and the second is Igbo the presumed sacrificial and conquered tribe.

President Buhari already awarded him the Peace medal on UN podium.

Go and read Buhari's UN speech where he began by pouring accolades to GEJ for saving the continent untold hardship and bloodshed.


Hence blame Buhari also

Is there any difference between Ahmed Tinubu and Buruji Kashamu except Political party they belong?


Is Tinubu not a drug baron?

Governor Isa Yuguda and Danjuma Goje apologise to Boko Haram

The Bauchi State governor and the former Gombe State governor react to statements by the radical Islamic sect that it would hunt them down

Governor Isa Yuguda of Bauchi State and Senator Danjuma Goje from Gombe State have publicly appologised to radical Islamic sect, Boko Haram, for any rights violations suffered during the military crackdown on its leaders in 2009.

"I apologise to the members of Jama'atu Ahlussunnah lidda'awati wal Jihad for perceived injustices caused them as they have the full rights to be protected by the law," Yuguda said in a statement on Saturday."I hope this will further the healing of the trauma on Jama'atu Ahlussunnah, and open the door to meaningful dialogue that will end hostilities and usher peace for which the religion of Islam is all about."

Goje, the former governor of Gombe, said: "as a true Muslim, who believes in peace and brotherhood, I hereby tender my public apology to the organisation for any wrong done to it in the course of performing my duty as the then governor of Gombe State".

Boko Haram, which also goes by the name Jama'atu Ahlussunnah lidda'awati wal Jihad, is based in Borno State, but has also been active in nearby Bauchi and Gombe. It has claimed responsibility for series of attacks on security operatives and politicians in the region.

Yuguda and Goje were apparently responding to Boko Haram's demand for apologies as a precondition for dialogue with government.

In a recent media report, Abu Zaid, the spokesman for Boko Haram, had said the sect would hunt down the governors of Borno, Bauchi and Gombe. "We would not relent in our efforts of searching for them until they come out publicly and apologize," he allegedly said.

Governor Kashim Shettima of Borno State had already offered amnesty any member of the sect who renounces violence. However, Boko Haram has continued to demand for a wider application of Sharia Law in the north.

What is your problem?


National Metrology Agency has forecast intense flooding in Anambra State from August to October.

The Government of Anambra State has already built and furnished temporary relocation camp for those who are going to be affected by the flood.

NAMA is also prepared for any eventuality

OnReflection:
The National Crime Agency thinks otherwise.

Stop over-rating NCA

Arrest without charges in court is still frivolous and inconsequential.

Next

For now all we see are all politics and diplomacy

The Legacies of Goodluck Jonathan is fast taking a nosedive at Federal level.

We pray that Nigeria won't collapse at this rate.

These paid mercenaries are trying to divert the attention of Nigerians from "the present state of the Nation" to a side attraction.

How is our Economy, Security situation and political climate? These are more serious than "Diezani in London". This movie sales is now beyond expectation

aresa:
They support BH because hate, bitterness and anger is their portion in life and anything good for Nigeria is bad news for them....

This bigot from hinterland shows up.

I never believe a hate machinery/mercenary can easily forget its track records.

Too many conflicting reports on this issue,SR has its own version, Punch has its own version, The Nation is remixing its own version

The target was to divert Nigerians attention from the catastrophic failures of this administration on Security leading to Abuja bombing and secondly to praise the administration for war on corruption that have never started

Alleged N20bn Fraud:group Drags Fayemi, Others To EFCC, ICPC

The former governor of Ekiti State, Dr Kayode Fayemi has been dragged to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and then Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offences Commission (ICPC) over alleged fraudulent practices, running to over N20 billion.

The Save Ekiti Coalition (SEC), which made this allegation, wrote petition dated September 26, 2014 to the EFCC and ICPC and the petition was submitted in Abuja on September 29, 2014.

The petition signed by SEC Secretary, Comrade Oke Ayodele was titled; “Complaint of fraudulent practices against Ekiti State Governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi and others: call for investigation and prosecution.”


The group said the frauds were perpetrated through N2.6 billion construction of new civic centre, N383.9m earthwork for new governor’s office, diversion of State Universal Basic Education Board (SUBEB) and Local Councils funds through contracts worth N4.2bn, inflation of road contracts worth over N10bn and diversion of N1.2bn FADAMA fund.

The petition read in part; “Contract for the construction of a New Civic Centre was awarded to TIANJIN-YUYANG Construction Eng. Limited on August 30, 2012 at the cost of N2, 573,584,395.75, while Consultancy on the construction was awarded to CASA Nig Ltd on June 11, 2012 at the cost of N137, 611,325.07.

“Curiously, as at the end of 2012, a sum of N643,396,098.94 (representing 25% of total contract sum) had been paid to TIANJIN-YUYANG Construction Eng. Limited while the consultant, CASA Nig. Ltd was paid N89,801,901.06 (representing 80% of total contract sum).

“In 2013, a sum of N350, 116,245.17 was paid to TIANJIN-YUYANG Construction Eng. Limited, making a total sum of N993, 512,344.11 (representing 45% of total contract sum).
“While the Project contractor was paid 25% of the contract sum in 2012, why was the consultant paid 80% of the contract sum? Information available to us indicates that the Consultant was hurriedly paid 80% of the contract sum so as to enable some officials of the government get N50m of the contract sum. “Also, payment to the contractor was changed to N350, 116,245.17 in the 2014 Capital Projects Report, as against the sum of N643, 396,098.94 presented in the 2013 Capital Projects Report.

“Contract for the construction of earthwork for the N ew Governor’s Office was awarded to PONTI-ITALWARE Nig Ltd on March 3, 2012 at the sum of N383, 900,911.06, with a sum of N115, 170,273.32 paid to the contractor. The New Governor’s Office was proposed to be constructed
from the N25bn Bond obtained by the State Government, with N3, 474,700.000.00 earmarked for the project. “However, with N115, 170,273.32 paid to PONTI-ITALWARE Nig Ltd form earthwork, as at today, the site has been abandoned, with no significant work done.

20141007_145915

“By our own assessment, what was spent on the site cannot be more than N5m. “Also, in the 2014 Capital Projects Report, the N115, 170,273.32 paid for the earthwork was deleted, raising poser as to why the payment was missing from the 2014 updated account.


“In 2012, contracts worth N4, 246,094,751.14 were awarded through the Bureau of Special Projects (under the Governor’s office), headed by Mr. Kelekun. The contracts were for renovation of schools, supply of school furniture and construction of classrooms. Funds for these projects were taken from SUBEB and Local Governments accounts.

“Of these contracts, N3, 672,078,820.14 were for renovation of schools alone. Atlantic Offshore & Properties got N1, 152,562,555.14, Strabic Nig. Ltd got N1, 107,744.408.21, Bam Darley Nig. Ltd. got N924, 977,310.95 while Fatub Nig. Ltd got N486, 794,545.84.

“In the 2014 Capital Projects Report, payments to the contractors were presented as;
a: Atlantic Offshore & Properties – N1, 022,130,415.64
b: Strabic Nig. Ltd – N957, 237,829.62
c: Bam Darley Nig. Ltd – N742, 730,990.25
d: Fatub Engineering Nig. Ltd – N431, 327,270.41

“As at the time N1, 022,130,415.64 was paid to Atlantic Offshore & Properties, only 60% work had been done, meaning that Atlantic Offshore & Properties was only entitled to N691, 537,551. Bam Darley
Nig. Ltd that was paid N742, 730,990.25 had done 60% work too and ought to have been paid N554, 986,386.57.
“Contracts for REHABILITATION of Roads were awarded at highly inflated cost, with some of the roads costing as high N50 million per kilometre when the immediate past government awarded CONSTRUCTION of roads at less than N45m per kilometre. The REHABILITATION only involved cutting of failed portion, filling with laterite and stone base and asphalt overlay. No subsoil drainages, new pipe culverts and box culverts were constructed.

“For instance, 10.7km Ado-Afao was awarded at N538, 638,704.26, 17km Ilawe-Igbara Odo-Ibuji road, which was awarded at a little above N200m by the immediate past government was re-awarded to at N894,698,043.75, 11.5km Ado-Ilawe road was awarded at N482,849,098.20, 3.6km
Ijigbo-Baptist College (Ilawe road) was awarded at N788,038,599.60 while Fajuyi-University Teaching Hospital Road that is less than3km was awarded at N447,544,063.50

“Rehabilitation of 13km Old Garrage-Ado-Ikere road was awarded to Plycon Nig Ltd at N2, 369,833,077.15.

“Construction of 0.8km Old Garrage-Ojumose (Ado-Ekiti) road was awarded to Heartland Nig. Ltd at N866, 872,873.13.

“Using the State Public Works Corporation (PWC), rehabilitation 5km township roads were embarked upon in each of the 16 LGs. Contracts for the rehabilitation of these roads were awarded without any input from the respective LGs while fund for the project was deducted from the
local councils allocation. “For instance, rehabilitation of 5km roads in Moba LG was awarded for N368, 950,821.09, Ido/Osi LG for N329, 950,821.50 and Ilejemeje LG for N347, 914,157.68. Apart from the PWC, cronies of Governor Kayode Fayemi were also given the contract. Most of the road projects have been abandoned.

“In 2010, the World Bank in collaboration with the Federal Government released $7.5m (about N1.2bn) for FADAMA III Project. The State Government was expected to provide counterpart fund of N100m. FADAMA III was for LIVESTOCK farmers. “However, the N100m counterpart fund was not provided by the State government until 2013.

“Instead of using this fund for the purpose for which the World Bank and FG released it, the State Government set up a scheme called Youths Commercial Agriculture Development Programme (YCAD) and used the FADAMA III grant from the World Bank and FG to fund it.

6-10 YCAD farmers were purportedly given N6 million each while FADAMA farmers, who registered FUGs of Ten (10) farmers collectively applied for six hundred and ninety thousand Naira only (N69,000.00 per farmer) were left unfunded.

“There were just 142 YCAD members, but the government claimed they were 15,000. “The government also claimed that it bought NINE Tractors at N98m and constructed abattoir for N18m. However, the tractors claimed to have been bought with N98m were the ones supplied to Ekiti State by the federal government during the immediate past administration of Engr Segun Oni.

“Also, the N100m counterpart fund paid by the State government into FADAMA’s ECO Bank, Ado-Ekiti account was later returned to the government coffers.

“For FADAMA IV, a sum of $10.5m (about N1.7bn) was released in August, this year by the World Bank in collaboration with the FG for cassava plantation. Moves are now being made to siphon this fund.”
