Civil servants should follow best procedures to claim their rights, likewise the Government should respond to them in an appropriate manner.
Best wishes for all.

The Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, has insisted it will embark on a nationwide strike over the non-implementation of N30, 000 as the new national minimum wage, despite the National Industrial Court’s ruling in Abuja which has ordered that the action be suspended.
Mr Ayuba Wabba, President, Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) President, said this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Friday in Abuja.
DAILY POST reports that the National Industrial Court of Nigeria (NICN) in Abuja has restrained the organised labour from proceeding on a nationwide strike on Nov 6.
Wabba, reacting said the Labour-union was not aware of any court ruling and have not been served any notice.
“We have just concluded our joint organ meetings of the Central Working Committees of the Labour Centres of the NLC, Trade Union Congress (TUC) and the United Labour Congress (ULC) here in Lagos.
“The meeting is the final preparation for a full engagement with the government on the new National Minimum Wage and we have taken our decision to go on the strike.
“Our decision is to go ahead with the nationwide strike unless the government does the needful,” he said.
Also, Mr Musa Lawal, TUC General Secretary, also told NAN that the centre was not aware of any court ruling concerning the planned strike by organised labour.
“We are not aware because we have not been served any court order; we have taken our decision and we are going to stand by that,” he added.
The nationwide strike by organised labour is scheduled to commence on Nov. 6 over the new national minimum wage for workers in the country.

Mr President just got his waec certificate so labour should pls suspend this strike to honor His Excellency

The National Industrial Court in Abuja has ordered the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) to suspend their planned indefinite strike scheduled to commence on November 6.
Justice Sanusi Kado yesterday barred organised labour from embarking on the strike pending the hearing and determination of the claimant/applicants’ motion on notice for interlocutory injunction.

Justice Kado ruled in an ex-parte application moved behalf of the federal government by the Solicitor-General of the Federation and Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Justice, Mr. Dayo Apata.
Justice Kado agreed with the submission of Apata that if the strike was allowed, it would cripple the country’s economy and could jeopardise the health of many Nigerians who would not be able to access health facilities during the period and other emergency services. The judge fixed November 8 for hearing.

SAI BABA ECOWAS CHAIRMAN.

Government College, formerly Provincial Secondary School, Katsina, which Muhammadu Buhari, the All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential candidate, graduated from in 1961, has released Mr. Buhari’s secondary school certificate examination results.
The results, obtained exclusively by PREMIUM TIMES Wednesday, confirm Mr. Buhari’s claim that he undertook the University of Cambridge West African School Certificate Examinations and obtained five credits in English Language, Geography, Hausa Language, History, and Health Science.
PREMIUM TIMES obtained the computer printout from Cambridge University as well as a statement of result, signed by the current principal of Katsina College, dated January 21, 2015.
The results show that Mr. Buhari, a former military head of state, failed in Mathematics and Woodwork, and had a pass in Literature in English.
The examination centre number was 8280, while Mr. Buhari’s candidate number was 002.
The statement of results is printed on the letter head paper of the Katsina State Ministry of Education, and it shows that the examination took place in 1961.
The Cambridge print out also shows the result of 17 other candidates at the centre, including Shehu Yar’Adua, a former Chief of Staff, Supreme Headquarters.
Controversy over Mr. Buhari’s result escalated Tuesday after the Nigerian Army, which had earlier admitted to having copies of his certificate, reversed itself, saying it could not even attest to the details listed in his records.
The spokesperson of the Army, Olajide Laleye, said “Neither the original copy, certified true copy (CTC) nor statement of result of Major-.Gen. Mohammadu Buhari‘s WASC result is in his personal file.”
He said while it is the practice in the Nigerian Army that before candidates are shortlisted for commissioning into the officers’ cadre of the service, the selection board verifies the original copies of credentials as presented, “There is no available record to show that this process was followed in the 1960s.”
The military’s comments came after the retired general had said that his lost copies of results were with the Army, an explanation he gave ahead of elections February 14.
Mr. Buhari expressed shock at the claim and told the media in Kano, Wednesday, that he had given the controversy no serious thought until the intervention by the military.
He emphasised at a briefing that started behind schedule that he indeed sat for the Cambridge West African Examination, alongside Mr. Yar’adua, and Umar Abdullahi, a former President of the Court of Appeal.
“My examination number was 8200002, and I undertook the examination together with some prominent Nigerians including, late Shehu Musa Yar’Adua, and former President of Court of Appeal, Umar Abdullahi,” the former military leader said.
He said since his disclosure that he had lost the original copies of his academic documents, he had all along assumed his records with the Military Secretary, a position he once occupied for years, remained intact.
“But to my utmost surprise I was told that although the records of my certificate are available but there are no copies of my certificates in my file,” Mr. Buhari said.https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/175384-breaking-katsina-college-releases-buharis-%E2%80%8Bwasc-results.html

Get there first!

ahhahahahahahhahahahahahahaha..... Kai criminals.... Buhari till 2023 abeg

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has worked out a pricing template that would crash the pump price of fuel to the advantage of citizens in the country if elected president.
The PDP also rejected the increase of the official prices of diesel and kerosene, stating that such will bring more economic hardship on the masses.

In a statement on Thursday by its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, the PDP said with the current price template of crude oil in the international market, the Buhari-led administration has no justification to keep the pump price of fuel at N145 per litre and watch Nigerians groan under the weight of high prices.
“The PDP notes that for every N145 paid for a litre of fuel, the Presidency cabal diverts a hidden N58 which Nigerians have continued to pay since the fuel price was increased from N87 to presumably subsidized cost of N145,” the party claimed.

armadeo:
The question should be why should a senator be collecting the collective salary of over 400 people at minimum wage level keeping in mind that they've refused to pay the 30k.

What do they do. All I hear is a bill for this a hill for that but no impact.

We should scrap one of the legislative houses or make the senate 1 per state and house of reps 3 per state. Salary at par with a permanent secretary in the state or FCT.

They are a waste of money and time.

Get rid of the senate. It is not serving any useful purpose to the Nigerians. And it has caused us a of money and delays in passing the budget due to padding
A parliament consisting of a representative from all the constituency should be enough to check the executive

jaxxy:
I like this bt they should also audit the executive and the presidents aides also. Let’s do a complete audit work so Nigerians can understand the full extent of the rot in theses arms of Govt.

Nice job bt still not completed

Yes am with you bro still not completed

Racoon:
And what about the executive corruption Guess others seem to copy from it.

Unless money given to this so-called assembly is reduce then Nigeria will be better.

jumper524:
believe me, no current senator deserves a return..

But on a serious note, why should one Senator alone bag over N13m as monthly salary in a country where over 88,000,000 people are leaving below poverty line!

comos:
Buhari stole more than all of them combined

Sir, it's tym to dust your government textbook nd read up separation of power?

SarkinYarki:
Good we will also like to know how Buhari has mismanaged over 1.8 trillion Naira in illegitimate fuel subsidy regime

Bross u have a point, but the issue is dat this is democracy and there should be no interference in both arm of the govt , the president has little power on this , the problem of this country is d the NASS and the Judiciary , a system where the president take home 2m and a senator get almost 25m , a system where we have over 108 senators and 380 reps member working only for two weeks and going on holiday for two months!
very annoying!

Saraki house of fraud, no wonder he want to be president knowing that's where the big money lies.

Each time one hears about this massive theft of public funds, it is disheartening. Yet, there are clear cases of abject poverty and hardships everywhere in d country. This is heartlessness!!!

Racoon:
Executive legislative and juducial corruption.Who will now probe these criminals on both sides.EFCC, ICPC, police are all useless.

We already know that before now ,our question is what is the work of ICPC,EFCC and other financial institutions to all these that have kept our economy in a recession for years ?

Since Ghana Must Go Disappeared From The Senate! A New Pattern Has Evolved.Why Is The Efcc Not Proactive To Investigate Such Allegations.This Is Whistle Blowing Also!

i've never seen a fiercely corrupt national assembly than our own here in Nigeria.They know nothing but to loot and defraud.Kudos to Ex-CBN governor Sanusi Lamido and Sen. Shehu Sani for making it frank and transparent about what the National assembly is all about concerning mismanagement of public funds and illegal expenditure.

U Should Stop Calling Them House Of Assembly, Rather House Of Thieves. Simple.

About N3.5 billion was misappropriated in 2016 by the management of the National Assembly, an audit report has revealed.
The monies were siphoned through various schemes such as failure to retire advances, financial documentation irregularities, excess payment for goods, controversial purchases and diversion of funds.
These findings were contained in the 2016 annual audit report released by the Auditor General of the Federation.
The report, released this year, noted how the agency failed to provide receipts, vouchers or contract documents for many transactions made in 2016.
As Senate President, Mr Saraki heads the overall institution of the National Assembly.
Some other key officials in the National Assembly with direct or oversight management responsibilities include the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara; Clerk of the National Assembly, Mohammed Omolori; Chairman of the National Assembly Service Commission, Adamu Fika; and Director General of the National Institute of Legislative Studies, Ladi Hamalai. Some of them were directly indicted n the report.
INDICTMENT
During the audit of the accounting records maintained at the National Assembly and its agencies, at the management section, under the General Services, it was revealed that capital account payment vouchers for amounts totalling N417 million (N417,312,538.79), raised for settlement of some contractors, were without vital supporting documents, ”a financial decision that depicts violation of Financial Regulation which provides that all vouchers shall contain full particulars of each service as to enable them to be checked without reference to any other document and will invariably be supported by relevant documents.”
“The Clerk to the National Assembly, Mohammed Sani Omolori, should produce the supporting documents to the payment vouchers or recover the amount in question from the contractors,” the auditor ruled.
Also, during the audit of staff salary accounts, 37 payment vouchers with amounts to N67 million (N66,713,355) were observed to have been paid between January and June, 2016 for items not related to personnel cost.
The payees in the cashbook also did not correspond with those in the bank statement. This irregularity is a violation of Financial Regulation which states that “Expenditure shall strictly be classified in accordance with the estimates and votes must be applied only to the purpose for which the money is provided. Expenditure incorrectly charged to a vote shall be disallowed.”
“The sum of N66,713,355.08 being irregular expenditure should be recovered from the officer who approved the payments from the personnel vote,” the auditor instructed.
Review Of Expenditure
During the review of documents of capital expenditure vote by the auditor, it was discovered that payments totalling N116 million (N116,162,522.60) were made between April and June, 2016 to some contractors for various jobs carried out, without raising payment vouchers.
This contravenes the provisions of Financial Regulation which state that under no circumstance shall money be paid for services, for which a voucher has not been raised.
”The Clerk to the National Assembly should produce the payment vouchers for examination,” the report added.
Also, a total sum of N57 million deducted from various contract payments in respect of Withholding Tax and Value Added Tax was without evidence of remittance to the tax authorities.
The clerk was asked to produce the acknowledgement receipts from the Federal Inland Revenue Service for verification. He was stated, in the report ”to have ignored the auditor on these issues.”
‘Watery Documentation’
The general services account of the National Assembly was depleted by about N751 million on account of “watery financial documentations” and failure of staff to retire advances according to the report.
In the documents, it was revealed that N625 million was granted to the Constitution Review Committee through four payment vouchers between March and June 2016. These were not supported with relevant documents and details of the expenses.READ MORE
