You're trying to rope me into what I am against.... read all my post in this thread, I never said that the route is for human movement. people who are familiar with that river Niger route will know that its idle both for goods/human movement. the route people make use of is the delta-rivers-bayelsa route which I even give reasons.

I was expecting you to throw me another link where the ajaokuta steel industry is up and running but alas you came bringing long theories which doesn't disqualify my claim that ajaokuta is nothing but promise and failed project.

Tag me whenever the project is ready.

I am no big fan of GEJ. But I think his wife would have made a better President. Imagine the balls to make such a call. It sounds like something Obasanjo would have done.

You are absolutely correct. She was far more astute than her husband. He should have given her a starring role and listened to her. The same could be said of the current first lady.

jumobi1:
His response supports her assertion. He did nothing to remove her suspicion. He just remained quiet and then hung up. He eventually dumped PDP.

ybalogs:
Every successful man needs a Patience Jonathan but overdoing things and greed will always playout if not done away with like Mama Peace.

Patience the Lion heart .. This is the wife with heart of a man

lalasticlala:
ambuwal also said he didn’t reply the former first lady.

“Asked whether he said anything in reply while the vituperation lasted, Tambuwal said, ‘What do you want me to say to the wife of the President? I just kept quiet and allowed her to vent her anger on me.

“After a while she paused and I asked, ‘Are you done MA? Thank you very much’ and I dropped the call,” Tambuwal said.

but there is a law that preclude senator from taking a document to be work on at home right?

The coach could be justified if Joshua King was not good enough to represent Nigeria for the event.

Where Nigerian Boxing Federation isn't justified or got things wrong is not keeping tab on the guy concerning his development

As an amateur he represented Britain at the 2012 Olympics, winning a gold medal in the super-heavyweight division;

Bros the steel industry you're using as reference is dead and no plan of waking is being made. dredging won't equally make it alive because the two does not align. read my post again to understand my point which answer your first question/reply point.

1.the CofO of an ex-Gov
2.maybe you don't even know the difference between Residents and office.
Or you choose to ignore it.

ocelot2006: :


Pls do tell how having 18mil plus £1000 (imagine!!) in one's possession is corruption. Is it a crime for anyone to keep money at home? Do you have any proof that the money was stolen?

Oh btw a few weeks ago I had a bit over £1000 in my possession. Oya, go and blow whistle na.

Please mister, try and expand your horizon of knowledge. Every nation is governed by laws. There is a Money Laundering Act which forbids individuals from being in possession of more than N5m cash outside of the premises of a financial institution

mmsen:
Where did I say that he should be prosecuted without evidence?

Blue3k:
1. I am being civil did I insult u. The facts I did state multiple times. You shilling for Buhari’s administration incompetent after 2 yrs is sad.

2. What you fail to get is it contradiction in the actions of the states. You want to accept money with conditions but want to invoke law that would negate thowe conditions. That's why I brought block grant example. Honestly if you accept cash with conditions that should imply you don't have right to invoke that law. We can argue this all day like lawyers but that's my arguement.
Dude I did address bolded point. When I brought up conditions. I guess I should have spelled it out for u. Again they had 2 years to think about this a whole staff that works with him thinking about law and policy.

3. I don't agree conditions are unconstitutional. If they are don't bother with bailouts. These states ran themselves into ground anyway. They should go to court answer that question.

Second he should of attempted to get his party to pass a law. I thought APC controls both houses at time.

Adecks01:
how did efcc kidnapped someone's "CofO" and were later found in the market?
What is executive files transferred to Buharis house?

mmsen:
Or he has insulated himself by allowing many people to chop alongside him.

It's the same thing that Abacha did. Clearly a crook but many others were able to profit, including some who are still involved in government.

mmsen:
Until they deal with Melaye and Tinubu then I don't see how you can argue that they are not.

I have no fondness for any of them but it seems that the guys they're are going after are small fry.

Go after the big fish.

Blue3k:
Use the quote function correctly. I'm not surprised you want to defend Buhari at all cost. Champion of irresponsible bailouts. I did answer that with the fact they money had conditions before hand being disbursed. You can't do opposite after you get money and then you hand them a second round brilliant. Weak leadership.

You can accept money from federal government agree to deal and break it. That's fraudulent and trying argue different. No I was not in country when workers were crying I don't live in Nigeria. What extra law do you need to force states to honor their contractal obligation to fund. Again if you do this for 2 yrs straight and don't rally to solve issue it's just excuses at end of day.





Ok

Adecks01:
Since police when away with files then it is 100% possible for them to have kidnapped our budget too.
Please senate should pay the ransom and ve our budge ooooooooo

Lordsocrates:
Can you imagine, corruption has eaten so deep that someone having 18mn plus 16,000 pounds is viewed by Poverty ravaged Nigerians as nothing.. can you imagine what corruption has turned our mindsets into.

When a member of Parliament in the UK resigned for less than £1000 pounds he had/used without good explanations...

shame on u dumb commenters...

Kennitrust:
Na the laptop own weak pass laptop na illegal property or is the man not capable of getting laptop without looted fund

positivelord:
The items recovered were 38 files and six envelopes containing documents, which include a file on funds spent on security administration and information gathering– a-g – 2009, file on release of funds for special operations a- f - 2009.”

Some items include, “file on Gombe State Government of Nigeria Cash inflow 2005, file on Project 2007 – Executive Briefs on how to fight opposition in Gombe State, strategies and tactics and envelopes containing permit to operate as an oil industry service company (special categories) 2011.”

Others are: “A file containing write-ups on how Governor Shekarau plotted the assassination of Sheikh Jafaru and Letters from Alhaji Mohammed Danjuma Goje (Sarkin Yakin Gombe) to the MD LUBELL Nigeria Ltd of proposed residential Devt at Kashere Phase II dated 16/01/2007 and 19/11/2010.”

Did the search warrant specifically limit their search to cash?

I dont understand...oga police, you went to his house with a search permit base on whistle-blow for large sum of money. You guys ended up getting
18million. I dont know since when N18m became large sum among our politicians.
Then you went for personal files as indicated by the bolded above...its only logical for him to claim you made away with the budget.

mmsen:
Great but when are they going to raid Dino Melaye's premises?

pacino26:
My brother wake up do you see any vessel berthing in Kogi? It may boost local race line moving if logs and any minute agricultural products with little or no value to the overall economy of the member states.

If they want to dredge, I think they should venture south into Delta-Forcadoes or into Bayelsa to the coast line. Let the fishes reel in and the petroleum products come in with ease too.

VULCAN:
I admire people that ask questions when they see things that require such.

My guess is that Osinbajo and those at the top are working from a premise that Buhari is going to remain incapacitated for the nearest future. This enables them some leeway to act with an eye to a Post Buhari world.

I watched Buhari over a year ago tell Amanpour or someone that Nnamdi Kanu will not be released even though he has been granted bail.

I was stunned that a President would make such a statement but I later recovered as I remembered that Buhari is a Fulani and most of them are they vindictive.

This suggests that Buhari is not behind the loosening of Kanu's bonds

TabletMan:
From Onitsha to Ajakota is a useless route to be dredged by fg. I can't imagine traveling from Onitsha to nsugbe on a boat even if it's a speed boat. who and who is going to travel from Onitsha to okene on boat? when GUO, GIGM and other transport companies are there. Nobody can agree to ferry his/her goods through that waterways. Nigerian waterways are still unsafe and underdeveloped.

krispycash:
Very true, but my statement is based on facts... Many projects awarded last year are being rewarded again this year... Check the budget if u have access to it... Also all I am saying is this... Why allocated such a preposterous amount we are complaining about recession and instead of cutting expenditure and increasing revenue the government seems to be spending more than it should on a commission that literally steals more than the people it arrests... Renovation is allowed... Instead of building a fresh HQ

Khd95:
lol u that the brain that can comprehend basic things,pls can u ask the herdmans what he plans to do with the recovered loot,or has it been relooted.

After then,still fvck off,nd abstein from quoting me to ur demented posts

omohayek:
1. And what is to stop the Chinese companies from overstating their costs? Corruption is hardly unknown in China.
2. How long will this be allowed to continue, before politicians seeking cheap popularity start interfering in the name of the "exploited masses"? Look at what is currently going on with the DISCOs, which aren't allowed to charge market rates, yet aren't paid the subsidies they are owed by the government either (not to speak of the unpaid bills of the government parastatals).

Blue3k:
Excuses man save them for children. These's were bailouts and had certain conditions beforehand releasing cash. You do the same thing for 2 yrs straight people don't operate with conditions and still shill for them.

It's like saying Buhari us handing out block grants to state governments for road construction. Buhari releases first round to states and they spend on Agriculture instead. The money had conditions and purposes as mentioned by article. The federal government allowed itself to be taken for a ride.


You're just making unnecessary brutish conjectures, without resorting to facts. I have pointed you to the sections of the law and would have expected you to address that. The states countered the FG that they are legally are not answerable to FG on how they disbursed the bail-out. I was wondering if you had any answers to that. Were we all not in this same country when many of the unpaid workers cries were so loud? The money had conditions, yet to what extend where they enforceable under the current laws. Fayose could not account for what he did with the first tranch, yet was able to "bully" the FG into releasing another, when it was witheld, simply told his people that the FG was the reason he is unable to pay salaries.

The first 2 were debt package loans by federal government if I'm reading correctly. The last was Paris club. The rest came from normal allocations that were released early. They haven't enforced rules of they're agreement full stop.

The bail-out consisted of refunds from Paris Club on over-charges on previous debt servicing and part of Nigeria's equity return on NLNG's profits. Both does not belong exclusively to the FG. The states have rights to monies from both sources

It's obvious they are currupt with cash that why I don't care for these demi god governors and their lackies.

Ps: It's was 2015-2017 Buhari as head of party didn't think to strengthen legislation? If they need PDP votes just reach across isle and negotiate.
