Crime › The Chief Enemy Of Nigeria(cen) by lecturerdabo(op): 1:00pm On Aug 31, 2016
Following recent developments and exposures, Nigerians can now see the people that put our great nation Nigeria into her current economic quagmire! These economic rapers are the real enemies of Nigeria!! Funny enough, their chief is known for casting aspersions on past administrations!!!

Saint Rotimi Amaechi(CEN)

Saint Babatunde Fashola(ACEN)

Sinner Godswill Akpabio(EN)

Sinner Suntai(EN) etc
(CEN- Chief enemy of the nation, ACEN- assistant cen, EN- Enemy of the nation)

[SPECIAL REPORT: Ex-Govs Akpabio, Amaechi, Suntai received billions in waivers to buy aircraft, 200 BMW cars - PREMIUM TIMES


While they held sway in their respective states, three former governors of Akwa Ibom, Rivers and Taraba received waivers to buy different ranges of aircrafts that included a Bombardier private jet and a Bell 407 Helicopter, PREMIUM TIMES can authoritatively report.

The governors and other serving government officials circumvented paying duties even as they imported, under various guises, luxury automobiles that included BMW, Ford, Range Rover, Lexus and Jaguar. The waivers were granted in the names of their states.

Between 2011 and May 2014, a total of N215 Billion in import duty exemptions were granted in four years under the leadership of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan.

Data obtained from the Budget Office of the Federation detail a fiscal policy recklessness that made duty waivers in Nigeria to become synonymous with cronyism, racketeering, political patronage and outright brigandage.

Whilst some of the waivers may have been well-meaning and granted for the purposes of stimulating local production, economic growth and job creation, the data show that some of those who benefited did not deserve such concessions.

In 2013 former governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, now Minister of Transport, got waivers to buy one Bombardier aircraft Global Vision 5,000 series and two Bell 412 Axis Helicopters.

The three items attracted a total import duties of N2, 182,619,909.00 (Two billion, one hundred and eighty-two million, six hundred and nineteen thousand, nine hundred and nine Naira) but this was waived off by the Customs.

A year earlier in 2012, the Akwa Ibom State government, ran at the time by Godswill Akpabio, who is now a serving Senator, received waiver to purchase a G450 5N 4241 Aircraft. The economic necessity for the aircraft was not stated. This particular acquisition attracted import duty of N271, 256,000.00 (Two hundred and seventy-one million and Two hundred and fifty-six thousand Naira) but was not paid in view of the waiver.

Similarly, former Governor Danbaba Suntai, acting in the name of Taraba State, received waiver in 2012 to buy a Bell 407 Helicopter. The import duty on the helicopter was N13, 064,546.00 (Thirteen million, sixty-four thousand, and five hundred and forty-six naira). In October of the same year, Mr. Suntai became involved with another aircraft owned by the Taraba State government, this time a Cessna 208 5N-BMJ which crashed on a flight from Jalingo to Yola.
Year after year, virtually everyone with access to the corridor of power did their best to take advantage of the waiver regime of the President Jonathan government. Names and incongruous items combined in a clear defeat of the same economic policy the concessions were meant to promote.
Waivers were granted for the importation of Mercedes Benz cars and personal effects like refrigerators, tiles, marbles, beddings, chairs, cups and sunglasses. One sub-head in the Budget Office data unbelievably reads: “Specialized items such as custom made carpets, timber dining chairs etc”.

These items were imported at zero-duty in the name of the Federal Capital Territory.
Seizing the moment, the Rivers State Government, in 2011 under Mr. Amaechi imported 200 units of luxury cars, including “BMW, Ford and other brands”.
There was no agricultural machinery nor any economic enhancement tool in the Rivers’ import. The sum of N503.3 million was not paid as a result of the waiver, thus there was no discouragement of any sort for state executives that chose to waste taxpayers’ sweats on luxury goods.
The Lagos State government, under Babatunde Fashola, soon joined the fray, importing, in 2012, 300 units of BMW, Ford, Land Rover, Range Rover, Lexus, Mercedes and Jaguar. For Lagos State however, it was explained that the automobiles were for the 18th National Sports Festival. A total of N772 million in duty was waived.....

Romance › Re: The Thoughts Of Taking His Money Keeps Coming Back by lecturerdabo(m): 9:01am On Aug 29, 2016
prazil:
This might not be the right place to post this and i apologise but then i seriously need someone to speak some sense into me.

I work as a teacher and earn around 14,000 per month, small though but i have to keep up with that pending when i am able to come up with something better. A graduate of information technology the eldest child of my parent my other brother is just 9. My dad has been out of job since 2005. and my mum been a strong woman was able with the help of God to hold the home front financially and spiritually including my tuition fee for the most part of my tertiary education (year 1 - 3), however she lost her job in 2013 as a result of some health challenges that is psychological in nature (though everybody around believe it is more of a spiritual problem than medical).
As time passes and she wasn't getting any better her relatives came and took her home around November last year up until now there is no any noticeable improvement for her speech however she has been insisting that she wants to see him and my grand mum lately told me they needed N25, 000 so as to enable her try another herbal treatment.

Have not been able to go visit her since last year up till now partly because there have been some little financial demands as a result of her health condition and some financial misfortune that befell be so it was practically impossible for me to save. All through the year she has been crying she wanted to see me and i kept telling her i would come by September as schools would be on holiday then even though i had no idea where the money will come from to go home. Now along the line a school contacted me to help type and photocopy their exam question which i did and was paid about N30, 000 out of N43,000 immediately after i got the money i called my grand mum and mum that i would be coming august ending and i was thankful to God that at least i had gotten money to go home. However on getting to the bank to deposit the money into my account i discovered i had lost the money as it was no longer in my laptop bag just to mention that would be the fourth time my money will be getting missing this year without trace. When it dawned on me that the money was gone i had to console myself and started thinking of how to get money for my said journey home.

Now few days back i was arranging my uncle’s bag and i came across USD400 i simply arranged it and returned it back. However when i sat down at night to reflect on my day it cross my mind to take USD100 out of the money, convert it to naira and solve my immediate problem and pay back later However i discarded the thought but with time the thought kept coming back. For the past three days i keep going to the bag, take the money and at some point i would return it as my conscience kept prickling.

My Uncle and his family had been fair to me and my family and he did be disappointed to find out i took money from him i however would have asked him but then I know what he is keeping the money for and his use for the money is quite important and financially he is not stable for now. Now am at a cross road as to whether to take (steal) from him or not.

I do hustle but sometimes you hustle and ends still don’t meet. Have tried all forms of hustling ranging from job hunting to starting up little business but at a point everything hits a dead end.

I just need someone to convince me not to take the money for if the need for his money arises before am able to refund the money the consequences might not be too good yes i could pretend i also didn’t know what happen but then I wouldn’t want to live with the pain should anything happen because of shortage of fund on his path. Yet for the mean time it looks as though that is the only evil solution i can come up with.
Pls bro, this might be a test of faith! Don't take that money, just continue with your hustle and trust God to bless that hussle for you!!

Romance › Re: Can Loneliness Be An Excuse For Cheating? by lecturerdabo(m): 1:04pm On Aug 28, 2016
Depending on how one look at this issue!

For me, I will categorically tell you that loneliness is a very good breeding ground for infidelity more so in long distance relationships!

Enviroment and friends are things we should be concious of at a period of lonliness cos the company one keep and the kind of discussion they indulge in plays a very big role in cheating or not!!

Sex is a natural and strong urge and can be triggered by many factors including and not limited to weather!! It takes a person who have good amount of self control and maybe Godliness to resist it!!!
Family › Re: Help My Motherlaw And My Husband... by lecturerdabo(m):
Madam, with all due respect, you might be the one creating most of the problem here!

Are you working?

Into business?

Why maid at this early stage, just a baby?(Since ur hubby relative dey house, make ur own too come join abi?)

Did you factor the maid's expences(feeding, clothing, education etc) into ur hubby finances?

Why do ladies enjoy bringing extra luggage to their matrimonial home? Its either sister, brother, cousin, friend etc but when the man's relative comes in trouble starts!

My mother came to my place sometime in 2014 and also tried the shop stuff(I understand this old peeps can hardly stay one place) but I turned it down without mincing words(that's the son's job and not yours)

Build good relationship between you and your mother in law if you want to enjoy your marriage! Make her one of your best friends!!

This is my 11th year in marriage and I can tell you if not my Mum and sisters whom my wife relates seriously well with, we would have parted ways years ago(for the benefit of those saying momma's boy, I was one! Being an only son and last in a family of three) Now you see, being in control of your home or not have nothing to do with being Mama's boy!!!


I'm not saying ur MIL is a saint here!
Don't engage her in debates or argue with her rather complain to ur hubby about her excesses. Remember never use offensive language when talking to him about his mother!


ABOVE ALL, PRAYERS!!!
