the main problem is we yorubas that always think hausa loves us more than ibo,not knowing their view about us and ibo is the same.they are only using us as ladder to government.

See as you completely denied your ethnicity so you can hide under Yoruba to perpetuate trouble. You are ashamed to be Ibo, but you all will always claim you are brave. You are doing same thing Ojukwu did, dress as a maiden to escape. Remove this fake picture and come out as Ipob warrior if you have courage to face Yoruba straight.

olasaad:
Abdulfatai Ahmed, the current governor is Igbomina. I think kwara North should be next

Ola, which group will North cover?

BabaRamota, why you worry yourself now? This is a forgone conclusion, there is no Ibo qualified for Nigerian Presidency. None, period! Any party that put them on its platform is crazy and a looser. This is already written in concrete, calm down my brother.

My God!!!

I am tired of seeing Igbo topics in Nairaland. Mods please delete any thread with the titel Igbo in it. They are inconsequential discussions. Igbo has ceased to be relevant in this country. They are Biafrans now. Jeez!

What ideology does the "slave of Daura" have? I want to hear it.

It's politicking season and the only thing we want to hear from SE is your political mavericks in this season. We know you have always been filthy pigs and your habits have gone with you to settle filth in different urban centers around the country. There is nothing new there.

Focus on the political intrigues around the country and contribute something....we dont want to hear post 2019 that Yoruba betray you. Join in now so you are not betrayed in 2019.

bloody unhygienic freaks!

Former minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, who is known for constantly criticizing the present administration, has again taken another swipe at President Muhammadu Buhari.

FFK said among other things that ‘the only good thing about Buhari’s government is that he has a beautiful wife, Aisha Buhari.

Mr Fani-Kayode, who is a strong opposition to the present administration said this, during an interactive session on Arise TV on Monday.

He wrote via his twitter handle on Monday thus:.....https://janefblog.com/3807-2the-only-thing-good-about-buharis-govt-is-his-beautiful-wife-femi-fani-kayode/

Hahahaha.....

This FFK is a demon true true....he wants fulani pvssy now.

This is an insult on the PDP party structure in Lagos for this man to come from Kwara and instruct them on home politics and the intrigues involved. He is basically saying they are dummb.

Saraki must think Oba of Lagos is pliable like Ilorin Emir. By the way, did he stop at Idunganran and paid respect, or he just entered town and left without seeking endorsement from the King whose domain is the economic life support of the nation?

Uzodimma should have been in jail a long time ago after the series of violations and crimes he committed abusing import waivers and using his office as chairman of a committee on customs and excise to influence and intimidate clearing houses at the ports.

A lawyer and Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Muhammad Dele Belgore (SAN) at the weekend said he would run for the office of Kwara Governor next year, saying it was time Kwara reclaimed its rightful place as a first generation state.

Belgore commended his supporters for staying true to the ideal of good governance and community values he represents.


He however added that a formal declaration would be made at a news briefing in the coming days adding that his visit was to carry along his political base across the north-central state.

According to him, “At the moment, our state remains at the lowest wrung of socio-economic development despite being among the oldest states. It is a third-tier state in terms of development. We desire to make it claim its place in history.


“We thank you for standing firm. We thank all the people of our state for their support. Your intimidating presence here suggests that we remain the choice of the masses. We will continue to champion your cause. To that end, I want to tell you that I have obtained the form to run for governorship on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

“At the moment, the line between Kwara’s wealth and some private estate is disturbingly blurred. Our political leadership is more concerned about keeping our people perpetually subservient to some political machinery oiled with public funds much less than it is concerned about our public good.

“We educate our children and painfully watch as they remain unemployed. God forbid it that we or any member of our family fall sick – our hospitals have more or less become death traps. I am sure that these are personal and painful experiences you have encountered or heard about. Yet we read in the newspapers that Kwara State’s internally generated revenue (IGR) is now one of the highest in Nigeria.”

https://www.dailytrust.com.ng/2019-ill-run-for-kwara-governorship-belgore.html

Kwara is more than a first-generation state, Ilorin, capital of Kwara, is an ancient city of scholarship, knowledge and industry. It ranks in same level with cities like Kano. Ilorin today is behind cities just founded a decade or two ago. We need a change.

Iwantslavesgone:
Is that whites see us as their equals hence they love to marry and have sex with us more than the other Africans?. I have travelled through out Africa, and I can tell you Nigerians are the most desired by white people and Arabs in Africa. Could this be the reason for the envy from other Africans?

Cheap to fvk

If I were a playwright, this is correct screenplay here.
This drama is movie...even novel sef.

Dele Momodu is everywhere and in everybody's corner. What is he looking for gaan?

May God bless Chief.

Jeez...from 2015 to 2047.

Racoon:
And who told you many of members of the same NASS are not guilty of the same offense of forgery

Senate serves as the sentry point...the gateman...that checks IDs and block out potential trouble makers from going past the gate. True we expect only invited guests with authentic ID to show up. The reason we have a gateman is because we know and believe people will try to beat security.

The blame should go to Senate for their inadequacy and negligence, not Kemi that breached the vetting process.

CROWNWEALTH019:
Blame DSS for allowing her scale through, its not the fault of the NASS

Follow my example and bring us stipulations that give DSS the role for vetting Ministers.

Muslim go wash body parts and enter mosque. Christian go take holy water bathe in church sanctuary. We dont call them ritualists.
Maybe that's his own mode of cleansing in his religion,....bathe in the market. Why the name calling?

mekaboy:
I know in the western world, kemi Adeosun would have been charged to court and jailed for years.

So if you are the judge in this case, how many years do you think she should serve in prison?

For me I will recommend that she should return every penny she earned as commissioner to minister, then do just 4 years as a woman in prison.

Your information is incorrect. What will she be charged to court for, and by whom?

There are provisions of the law at State and Federal level that says a Nigerian of any background going into public service must be vetted and confirmed by State House or The Senate before the oath of office is given.

What is vetting?
Vetting is the process of performing a background check on someone before offering them employment, conferring an award, or doing fact checking prior to making any decision.

Because Mrs Adeosun has dual citizenship, Nigerian and British, here is the British definition of vetting.
BRITISH
investigate (someone) thoroughly, especially in order to ensure that they are suitable for a job requiring secrecy, loyalty, or trustworthiness.


What is the process in Nigeria for vetting those called into Public Service?

FIRST
Chapter VI, Part I, Federal Executive, 147.
(1) There shall be such offices of Ministers of the Government of the Federation as may be established by the President.
(2) Any appointment to the office of Minister of the Government of the Federation shall, if the nomination of any person to such office is confirmed by the Senate, be made by the President.

SECOND
The Constitution has vested in the National Assembly the power to make laws for the peace, order and good governance of the Federation. The Assembly also has broad oversight functions and is therefore empowered to establish committees of its members to scrutinize bills and the conduct of government institutions and officials.

The Constitution confers exclusive powers to the Senate among them the power to scrutinize and confirm major appointments of the executive. It is, however, specific about the appointments to be confirmed. They are those of the Ministers, Special Advisers, Ambassadors, top Judicial Officers heading specified levels of courts, the Auditor-General of the Federation, and the Chairmen and Members of the vital National Commissions.


How was Kemi Adeosun's qualification scrutinized?
Why was she confirmed by Senate without proper vetting?

The Senate owes Nigerians explanations for failing in its "exclusive" oversight role of scrutinizing and confirming nominees for Ministerial office.

Wat is d aim of dis thread? forgery is a crime. period!!

If someone gave you a checque to cash, without presenting at bank how would you know its counterfeit?

Investigations proved the certificate is fake, so she accepted her fate and did the right thing.....resigned.

Compare with Stella. She deliberately exaggerated and embelished her credentials to deceive. When discovered she tried to erase it, and when confronted she refused to resign. Even her oga refused to fire her.

His Excellency

Muhammadu Buhari

President, Federal Republic of Nigeria

State House

Aso Villa

Dear Excellency,

Let me commence by thanking you profusely for the honour and privilege of serving under your inspirational leadership. It has been a truly rewarding experience to learn from you and to observe at close quarters your integrity and sense of duty.

I have, today, become privy to the findings of the investigation into the allegation made in an online medium that the Certificate of Exemption from National Youth Service Corp (NYSC) that I had presented was not genuine. This has come as a shock to me and I believe that in line with this administration’s focus on integrity, I must do the honourable thing and resign.

Your Excellency, kindly permit me to outline some of the background to this matter. I was born and raised in the United Kingdom, indeed my parental family home remains in London. My visits to Nigeria up until the age of thirty-four (34) were holidays, with visas obtained in my UK passport. I obtained my first Nigerian passport at the age of thirty-four (34) and when I relocated there was debate as to whether NYSC Law applied to me. Upon enquiry as to my status relating to NYSC, I was informed that due to my residency history and having exceeded the age of thirty (30), I was exempted from the requirement to serve. Until recent events, that remained my understanding.

On the basis of that advice and with the guidance and assistance of those, I thought were trusted associates, NYSC were approached for documentary proof of status. I then received the certificate in question. Having never worked in NYSC, visited the premises, been privy to nor familiar with their operations, I had no reason to suspect that the certificate was anything but genuine. Indeed, I presented that certificate at the 2011 Ogun State House of Assembly and in 2015 for Directorate of State Services (DSS) Clearance as well as to the National Assembly for screening. Be that as it may, as someone totally committed to a culture of probity and accountability I have decided to resign with effect from Friday, 14th September, 2018.

Your Excellency, It has been an exceptional privilege to have served our nation under your leadership and to have played a role in steering our economy at a very challenging time. I am proud that Nigeria has brought discipline into its finances, has identified and is pursuing a path to long term sustainable growth that will unlock the potential in this great economy. Under your leadership, Nigeria was able to exit recession and has now started to lay the foundations for lasting growth and wealth creation. Repositioning this huge economy is not a short term task and there are no short cuts, indeed there are tough decisions still to be made but I have no doubt that your focus on infrastructural investment, revenue mobilisation and value for money in public expenditure will deliver growth, wealth and opportunity for all Nigerians.

I thank His Excellency, the Vice President and my colleagues in the Federal Executive Council for the huge pleasure and honour of working with them. I also thank most specially, the team in the ‘Finance Family’ of advisers and heads of agencies under the Ministry of Finance. Your Excellency, this group of committed Nigerians represent a range of backgrounds, ethnicities and ages. They have worked well above and beyond the call of duty to support me in the tasks assigned. The diversity in my team and their ability to work cohesively to deliver reforms, convinces me that Nigeria has the human capital required to succeed.

Your Excellency, let me conclude by commending your patience and support, during the long search for the truth in this matter. I thank you again for giving me the honour of serving under your leadership, it is a rare privilege, which I do not take for granted. As a Nigerian and committed progressive, I appreciate you for your dogged commitment to improving this nation.

Please be assured, as always, of my highest regards and best wishes

Kemi Adeosun (Mrs)

Twenty-four hours after her claim to have acquired a Masters degree from the St. Paul’s College in the United States was punctured, PREMIUM TIMES has uncovered another false claim by our embattled Minister of Aviation, Stella Oduah.

This time, the minister lied on oath to the Nigerian Senate, claiming another American ‘university’, Pacific Christian University awarded her an honorary doctorate degree in 1998.

Mrs. Oduah made the claim in a 7-page resume she distributed to Nigeria’s 109 senators during her confirmation hearing on July 2, 2011.

On page four of the document, the minister claimed the university, which she said was based in Glendale, awarded her an honorary doctorate in Business Administration.

It was based on this document that she was grilled and eventually confirmed by the lawmakers.

But investigations by PREMIUM TIMES suggest that no university called Pacific Christian University exists in the United States.

The U.S. Department of Education, through its National Centre for Education Statistics, keeps an up-to-date database of all public libraries and educational institutions in the country – public, private and colleges.

PREMIUM TIMES reporters spent hours on Wednesday searching this database.

Our reporters searched by state (California), city (Glendale) and name of institution (Pacific Christian University). Yet, nothing came up in the name of the university Mrs. Oduah claimed gave her an honorary doctorate.

According to the database, there are six colleges (universities) in Glendale, a city of 191,719 inhabitants in Los Angeles County, in the state of California.

The colleges are American Medical Sciences Centre, Brand College, Glendale Career College, Glendale Community and North-West College.

There is no such university known as Christian Pacific College as claimed by the minister.

The spokesperson for the National Centre for Educational Statistics, Susan Ad, could however not be reached for comments.

She is yet to return calls and reply an email sent to her by this newspaper.

The spokespersons for the minister appear unwilling to comment for this story.

Efforts by PREMIUM TIMES to get them to react to this new revelation were unsuccessful.

Joe Obi, her special assistant on media, did not answer or return calls.

Yakubu Datti, the spokesperson of the aviation agencies, who usually speak for her, answered our call but immediately said he would call back. He is yet to do so as at the time of publishing this.

Meanwhile, in the same resume she submitted to the Senate, Mrs. Oduah did not indicate that she got a Masters from St. Paul, raising questions on why she made that claim in her official citations and profiles posted on the Ministry of Aviation website, her personal website and her Wikipedia page.

She only claimed in the document to the Senate that she obtained a Bachelor of Science degree from St. Paul’s College in 1982, a claim that PREMIUM TIMES is investigating.

The spokesperson for the Nigerian senate, Enyinnaya Abaribe, tried Tuesday to extricate the senate from blame as Nigerians criticize the lawmakers for conducting a sham screening exercise that allowed Mrs. Oduah to get away with lies and deceits.

Mr. Abaribe said the lawmakers depend largely on the nation’s security agencies to help them investigate claims by appointees of the president.

He said in conducting screening exercises, the senate relies largely on reports forwarded to it by the security agencies.

Mrs. Oduah, and her associates have spent the last several hours scrambling to clean up the minister’s biographies on the Internet, following allegations that she lied about her academic qualifications.

Already, Mrs. Oduah’s biography on the website of the Ministry of Aviation has been revised, with references to St. Paul’s College now wiped out.

The Wikipedia page of the minister was also edited and it now has no reference to the university Mrs. Oduah attended. The last edit on the Wikipedia page was done at 14:41 p.m. Nigerian time Tuesday.

All links and reference materials on the Wikipedia page capable of linking the minister to the university that has disowned her have also been deleted.

Even the minister’s personal website has been reviewed to remove any reference to St. Paul’s College.

Mrs. Oduah had since October been enmeshed in a a N255million armoured cars scandal in which she was accused of compelling an agency under her supervision, the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority, NCAA, to buy her two exotic bullet cars at clearly inflated prices.

The purchase of the cars generated outrage for weeks because its cost was inflated, and it was neither listed in the government-approved budget nor did it comply with the Nigeria’s public procurement law.

The House of Representatives has since asked President Goodluck Jonathan to sack the minister but the president has failed to act.

There are Igbo Alhajis and Imams. They will soon start issuing fatwas in SE if you Ibo Christians push them to the wall. Leave them alone to practice their faith in peace. Dont bother them.

These are survivors, those who conquered treacheries of Sahara desert, Libya, Meditteranean sea...Italy will be conquered too. That girl is pregnant with an Italian baby. They should make sure she gets every right due an Italian citizen.

A bloody skull miner ! With his tool held aloft.

Wait till Yoruba demons see this thread.

First is Copper Miner
Second is Coal Miner
Third is Gold Miner
Fourth is....

Does anyone know what that fourth man is mining? He carries machette.
