I see Stella Oduah listed as one of the PHD holders. . A country run by mediocrities.

gocac:
Abeg go and sit down..... Read and understand what your constitution entails about issues relating to academic qualifications and how it relates to our politicians. However... Academic qualification is never a recipe for good governance or best represntation of a people. A case study, goodluck jonathan was a ph.d holder as at the time of his shameful regime,yet he was so clueless and daft that he could not understand the simple meaning of power! He couldn't even differentiate btw left and right......he couldn't understand that mathematically 19 is greater than 17, he failed his people... Leaving no single lagacy in the Niger delta... I will never forgive him for that. so what use is his academic qualification with regards to governance?? You don't need so many academic qualifications in governance, you need intelligency, wisdom, common sense and leadership qualities, which goodluck never had. You can insult me all you want (I no care, I no send u) truth must be told.

kingwax7007:
The minimum qualification is O'level...so,wetin happen?
Does anyone still believed that na ur school go determine ur intelligence?

Oh.. I knw who does- Reno and the wailers..

But I have proof that that doesn't count..

1. OBJ met $3.7 billion and left $45billion in foreign reserve, when crude oil was just above $30 per barrel

2. A synergy of PHD president and a Havard trained finance minster met $45billion and left left us with $34billion when crude oil was .....Wait for it... - *** errata,they met almost $60b. Yar Adua met $45b and grew it still

$115 per barrel

Then some university trained wailers, with an acclaimed pastor were praising them and talking about how well they managed Nigeria. ..

Wailers = pea size brains!!!

Esseite:
Some comments make you pity your generation and future generations..

Some of you need to google british parliament and intense argument video, then you would see the need of education for law makers

Then you would know why we need to change..

And we keep wondering why we are backward..


Bank job - 2.1
Oil and gas - 1st class
Insurance coy - 2.2

Gate man - ssce
Office assistant - ssce
President - ssce
Senator - ssce
Hor - ssce
Minister - diploma

And we are waiting to get it right...

Izonpikin:
with people like you nigeria will forever remain daft..nonsense..

This is what the north has being using to take jobs also in establishments like the dpr and nnpc etc..

Whilst old fools with low degrees rule over your sorry ass and many zombies we the masses are required to obtain a minimum of 2:1 in university education just to get a job.

You are part of Nigeria's problem..

When gej ruled policies took the front sit but look at what the chief olodo is doing to our economy..

takenadoh:
I agree with you that there is a need to rapidly develop the Niger Delta, this Development plan shouldn't affect the current efforts by the Ministry of Niger Delta affairs, NDDC and the rest, Abuja as it is wasn't like this in the 80,'s or early 90's they've continually worked according to the ,Abuja Master plan, the same should be done in the Niger Delta.


Its good to be affiliated with one party or the other, personally I am a Nigerian and anything that will make the future brighter for my kids, That is just what I want.

Sophious:
Just made a quick read through of the tax law and I see you are right! But a full implementation this very time is not fair on the workers. A good number of civil servants have banks loans, cooperative savings/loans and so on and are calculative with what they have left. You don't make them get this type of news when they get alert or see their payslip.

takenadoh:
Tomopolo and co are Militant leaders not the same are Clark , Diete Spiff, etc. there is a big difference.
Ogoni clean up was never a myth, its not about flagging smth off, HYPREP was established under GEJ.
please show me where EK clarks and the rest have said they support what the NDA are doing?

the state doesn't share revenues it collects to the LGA, LGA's get their money separately, I never said distribute LGA based on Oil Production, Bayelsa State is bigger than Lagos in terms of Land area or Land mass but Lagos has 20LGA, or in terms of Population Lagos has an estimated Population of 13million people and Kano has 5 millon but Kano has 44 LGA, so on what basis do we have the LGA distribution?

tempest01:
I understand the point you are putting through....and I understand the NCC planned this with us I'm mind. But conditions right now are not the best. They should be able to come up with other incentives for entrants that making the consumers best all the brunt. Or a partial baseline upward review followed with some reliefs for indigenous entrants.

takenadoh:
I am not exonerating the ND leaders from what the people are facing and btw Tompolo , Ayiri , Boyloaf are militant leaders not Niger Delta leaders, just for the record. Bayelsa State gets 13% oil derivation, but only has 8 LGAs, Kano on the other hand doesn't get 13% but has 44 LGAs if you do the maths, you'll see that what Bayelsa State produces and what she gets back as in net income isn't enough.

I'm happy you said you've been to the Niger Delta, and i'm sure you understand the terrain, the amount of money you'll use to build a 3 bedroom flat in Bayelsa State will get u 3 of those houses else where especially in the North, considering the amount of "filling" and reinforcement necessary in Yenagoa and Bayelsa State these peculiarities led to the establishments of the Niger Delta Development Basin Development Authority and several others.

The Ogoni clean up is smth that has been in the pipeline even before this government came on board with HYPREP...

From your above statement you are an APC supporter and everything you say or do is to vilify the opposition.

1. Akwa Ibom (N260 billion or $1.7 billion)
2. Rivers (N230 billion or $1.5 billion)
3. Delta (N209 billion or $1.3 billion)
4. Bayelsa (N173 billion or $1.1 billion)
5. Lagos (N168 billion or $1.1 billion)
6. Kano (N140 billion or $0.9 billion)

Omeokachie:
Didnt OBJ accuse GEJ of having trained 1000 snippers?

Rad1cal:
You are the one who needs to refine your comprehension skills here. You simply said nothing.

Sophious:
You claim to be FG staff and say this. Do you know the difference between consolidated and gross. Who taxes the small allowances workers still get? Chains..... This means I pay for my pension and NHF from my housing allowance ( the only allowance I see on my payslip since all other allowances have been consolidated. )

DjAndroid:
Yes IPPIS has been paying since 2012. Why is it now that the govt discovered that the civil servants are wrongly taxed? (now that they are looking for a way to tax everything)

Integrity123:
The deductions are statutory so there should no media or press war over this. Thank God they are not told to pay unpaid backlogs

DjAndroid:

seunmsg: :
Implementing the law properly should not be termed as salary reduction. My salary was not reduced in any way because I have been paying my full tax previously. People should pay their taxes accordingly and stop complaining and misinforming the public.

As a civil servant how are you supposed to personally pay your taxes?

chrismilayo2:
You are getting some facts wrong. As a medical doctor my call duty allowance is not taxable by law, but the government has been been doing it. There was a 43k reduction in my salary this month, add to the the previous deductions prior to November, my tax per month runs into close to or above 100k .
So by touching my call duty they are not implementing the law properly.

HAH:
This report is misleading, it shows as if all FG workers salaries were slashed, while the truth is deduction being made as most FG staff were not being done to them and this was implemented now. Every worker in government or organised private sector must see the detection in the memo above, the question why was VON not being deducted hitherto

jusRadical:
Please talking nonsense. Civil servants do not pay their taxes directly. The govt deducts their taxes at source.

At source means that their taxes are removed and so also pension, loans, etc by the accounts dept before they are paid.

Many companies do that also.

Stop displaying you ignorance.

How on earth can a responsible service provider threaten his paying customer with poor services? So, if they provide poor data services, we port to another network. Who is the loser then? If all networks shut down their data, other players will see the void and enter the market. In this era of extremely cheap metred data and free wifi in developed countries, they are threatening us here with poor network and exorbitant prices.

These people think they are doing us a favour by providing us with paid data. They do not understand that this is how they eat. Please somebody should tell them.

tempest01:
Competition made the price drop down....they should leave the competition to play out. I don't think as it is now, any new entrant will want to enter. Instead of milking us dry, new entrants should be attracted with tax relieves.

The upward review is understandable as it will help discourage monopolistic tendencies later on. At the same time, I think the competition is here to stay.

OHIsIManuEL:
Kenya is kenya, this is Nigeria, watch how this will be mismanaged and useless.

takenadoh:
what's the collateral or backing they are using to borrow the cash, isnt it the same Oil reserve... my brother . which ND boys... why don't they do what's right and give what's due to those that are facing the direct challenges of oil exploration.. please visit one of the flow stations or oil installations to understand first hand, stop staying in Lagos and complaining.

Weedcrusher:
I said earlier that it is a nice thing only if it's relevant. I will tell you what are relevant.

1. Training farmers on environmental parameters such as soil pH, temperature, proper irrigation, pest management etc. to optimize their production

2. Provision of Mechanized farm equipment such as combine and harvester at subsidized rate

3. Financial support in form of low interest rate loans

4. Training and support for proper storage of harvested crops

5. Public awareness to buy made in Nigeria rice

I don't know what the app is about, but one thing I know is that you need data to use an app, and my guess is there will be no or limited data availability in most of the farms

trademoore1:
Yes..I do recognise it.
But a professional press report should not be making such errors.
Others who may not be aware are reading this site
The mods should use appropriate headline

trademoore1:
33 companies or 33 govt agencies?
What has fed ministry of finance to do with private companies and their internal processes?

omowolewa:
Discovery Channels?

In times of recession like this, governments give subsidy for recovery, reduce interest rates, partner with managements.

This Greek mode may not help us, Like killing the hens that lay the golden eggs, businesses would die under the weight of expenses and government fines.

afanide:
You go ask farmers how fertilizer was accessible and subsidized during Jonathan's tenure. Can you compare the price of fertilizer then and now stop being biased and talk with facts.

Jokerman:
Isn't this a GEJ/Adeshina Agric policy idea??

globatop:
What is stupid about his comment.
If u are into Agric u will reason along the same line.
What assistance will phone provide in farming? If we must use app for Agric, should sharing phone be an option against subsidy on farm implements.
This govt has no think tank at all. We shall be planting rice on the Internet. Shameless program.

B4bestbrain:
Nice gesture though, but how many of our farmers Know how to operate smart phones?
