See how you are tripping over your own tongue!
If it wasn't for the same foreigners who jailed people in the US, would you ever have known about the Siemens scandal?

Beaf:
The govt officials kicking against the idea are the ones with plans to inflate contracts and swallow bribes.

Fellow Nigerians are Nigerias worst enemy, if we need to bring in accountants and valuers from abroad to stop the corruption in contract awards, then so be it. GEJ should even go farther and bring in a foreigner to head and rebuild the police force; the person can be from Ghana, SA, UK, US, Israel etc.

Even if he wants to do public relations, it will be minimal

“Very soon we will get people from the World Bank to be at my office. For every contract we want to award, irrespective of the structures we have on the ground, they will assess it, so that if a job is supposed to cost N10,000 and it’s awarded for N10,000, the likelihood of that contractor bribing anybody will be reduced. Even if he wants to do public relations, it will be minimal. It will not be like the scandalous thing we have now,” Jonathan said.

The new desk as proposed by the President is apparently going to usurp the responsibilities of the National Council of Public Procurement which the procurement law provides for but which has not been set up since the act was enacted in 2007.

At present, the BPP vets contracts for subsequent approval by the Federal Executive Council even though the law empowers only the yet-to-be-set up council to approve contracts.

President Goodluck Jonathan said he will soon set up a desk of World Bank officials in his office to vet all Federal Government contracts irrespective of work done on those contracts by other existing structures.

A lingua franca (or working language, bridge language, vehicular language) is a language systematically used to make communication possible between people not sharing a mother tongue, in particular when it is a third language, distinct from both mother tongues.[1]

₪☺ one knows what that woman might hav gotten frm that man to harbour such pent up anger and hatred, Ω̴̩̩̩̥ow she chose to do something bout it and end her pain, y'all b tripping. Who knows how many times she'd bn forced to wear dark shades not cos its really sunny but to hide her black eyes and avoid public scrutiny, Who knows if d man cheats and spend outside his home and raises his hands on her whenever she made a sound, Ω̴̩̩̩̥ow y'all b tripping, I want to cross-examine the suspect, Mayb she really was d victim afterall,

Ivynwa:
There is more to this story than met the eye.
Only a woman who has been enduring violence in her marriage will go to the extent of using a pestle
on her husband and going to the extent of stabbing him too. I have a feeling that she did it in self defense
not that I am supporting stabbing and using pestle on a human being.
If this is not the case with this woman then something is wrong somewhere

He slumped and died during a fight.  That doesn't mean she killed him.  Focus on the facts.

kpolli:
I hope this case wud gather the same popularity as the guy who killed his banker wife

rawtruth:
Blah blah blah . . .
   Those of you on this forum who were adults during the Shagari govt when Sunday Adewusi was the IGP could tell if the police of that time were the caricature of inefficiency we are seeing today. The police need a more holistic reform.
