mikeansy:
The man did not sign a CONTRACT, He only signed a Memorandum of Understanding.

So you guys should chill and stop getting excersized over nothing.

From MOU to contract, I see diversion of state funds to private pocket. Imo Indigene should hold him responsible for any loss of money.

ednaline:

If you that's what you want, you'll see a load of them now.

The Network on Police Reform in Nigeria (NOPRIN) is a network of 46 civil society organizations spread across Nigeria, and committed to promoting police accountability and respect for human rights. It was established in 2000 to provide opportunity for civil society involvement in police reform, and the promotion of safety, security and justice in Nigeria. NOPRIN carries out its mandate through monitoring, field research and investigation, documentation, publication, campaign and advocacy. NOPRIN partners with national, international, governmental and intergovernmental organizations and institutions in implementing its programs aimed at transforming law enforcement institutions and practices in Nigeria.
NOPRIN, in collaboration with the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) and the Public Complaints Commission (PCC), plans to convene two days Public Tribunals on Police Abuse in Nigeria in each of the six geopolitical regions of Nigeria.
The public tribunals are designed to put issues of police abuse in the front burner of public debate; give voice to the numerous survivors, relatives of victims and witnesses of police abuse in Nigeria and to assist them to secure remedies through the use of mechanisms of internal control and external accountability. It is also aimed at mobilizing eminent Nigerians to join the campaign to end police abuse of human rights in Nigeria.
The Public Tribunals will be presided over by a Panel of Judges comprising eminent Nigerians drawn from governmental, nongovernmental and intergovernmental agencies such as the National Human Rights Commission, Public Complaints Commission, Police Service Commission, Association of Retired Police Officers, the Judiciary, Religious Bodies, Nigerian Bar Association, Nigerian Labour Congress, Nigerian Union of Journalists, African Commission on Human and People’s Rights, and human rights organizations.
Testimonies will be heard from survivors of police abuse as well as from relations of victims on their behalf. Each testimony will be followed by cross examination and comments by members of the audience. The Chairperson of the panel will pronounce the findings and recommendations of the Panel of Judges after comments from members of the Panel.
Beginning from Jos, Plateau State for the North Central region in June; Owerri, Imo State for the Southeast region in August, and Bauchi for the Northeast region in October, NOPRIN will go round the six regions of Nigeria over the next 20 months to hold the public tribunals.
The Public tribunals will focus on cases of unlawful detention, torture, inhuman and degrading treatment; extrajudicial killings; rape and sexual violence.
In Maiduguri, Northeast Nigeria, many victims of extrajudicial killing after the Boko Haram crisis had been brought under control will have opportunity to testify before a panel of eminent and impartial Nigerians whose recommendations would be forwarded to relevant authorities for appropriate action.
In the Southeast, Police partisanship and complicity in crimes and human rights abuse has been a major obstacle to safety and security of citizens in the region.
In the North Central Region, the Public Tribunal will provide an opportunity for victims and witnesses to testify on the role of security agencies in sectarian violence and the resultant human rights abuses. Recurrent sectarian violence in Jos, for example has resulted to egregious abuses and community loss of confidence in the ability of security agencies to contain recurrent violence. The Public Tribunal will provide opportunity for the Muslim community in Plateau State, for example, to testify about their grievances against the police; while the Christian community will testify about their grievances against the military. Other victims and survivors will also be invited to testify. It is hoped that the Public Tribunal will contribute to ending the cycle of violence in North Central Nigeria in the face of the failure of successive government Commissions of inquiry to unravel and address the root causes of the recurrent violence with a view to breaking the circle.
We hereby request victims, family members on their behalf, and witnesses who wish to testify during the tribunals in their regions to indicate by writing to or calling the Program Coordinator, Network on Police Reform in Nigeria at the under listed address and phone number. Members of the public are also requested to assist in passing this information around to those who may benefit from it.

We need somebody that has the interest of the nation at heart. Someone who can cripple corruption.

What a sweet chic!

May her soul rest in peace

The Guilty are afraid!

No be you say you be oga! Na why you dey run?

As a moderator, Kosovo should not be campaigning for any political aspirant. He should be neutral and make comments objectively on certain issue, that is the meaning of moderation to me.

That thread of His on how to move Nigeria Forward and his pro IBB disposition does not marry at all.

Ahmend Sani Zamfara at 60 married a 13 yr old

Bashir Umar 18 married A'I Maikare 60 yr Old

Cradle robbery on the rampage in the North!

13volts:
7 hausa motorist are confirmed killed by Berom christain militants at thaoos village in Riyom LGA 4km from jos city. All 7 had their thoat slashed and buried in a shallow grave. This is an eye witness and breaking new

So we now have Xtian Millitants. Nawa oh! Naija they try for militancy!

On a lighter note, this Jos issue is getting out of hand.

snowdrops:
I dont know about millions but its certainly interesting how much support kosovo is giving the evil IBBs campaign

Maybe IBB learnt that there is a new campaign tool called the cyberspace and IBB made Kosovo his cyber-politico-campaign Manager. He's not been biased all these while in political issues, but backing IBB is more than been biased.

funny!

I always advice these desperadoes to look for other African countries to run to. See Niger, up north. though poor, but there is light, water, and good healthcare systems and you don't need a plane to go there!

The rate at which Kosovo is pro IBB on nairaland is alarming.
How much the the evil genius paid you for cyber-campaign Mr. Kosovo?

Ibori's gameis up! He should quietly surrender himself to the authority. His bribing will not save him this time around. It is left for Onovo to decided if he want to enjoy Ibori's bribe and forfeit his office or serve the country gallantly and arrest the criminal


Ibori's corruption is like cancer, even if he sees God, He'll attempt to bribe his way to paradise! Haba! what a specie of corruption !

God should deliver us from the hardship in this country oh! No water, No good road, No electricity, No education, No good health.
Even the free air God gave us is polluted.
But the man should have gone to Ghana, at least life is better there than Nigeria instead of meeting his untimely death.

sjeezy8:
everything happens for a reason . . . . old news

That's why we need to educate the ones that were born that year that'll be 18yrs by 2011 on Nigeria political history to enable them make the right choice.

NIGERIAN security forces killed at least 11 demonstrators yesterday, according to an African news agency, as protests against the cancellation of the 12 June election brought the centre of Lagos to a halt for the second day

Thousands of demonstrators, demanding that the government recognise the results of the election, yesterday built barricades of burning cars, buses and tyres in the streets of Lagos, the commercial capital, and blocked three bridges in the city centre. The demonstrators, confronting armed police, demanded that Mashood Abiola, the candidate of the Social Democratic Party who won the election, should be made head of state. The Pan-African News Agency reported that soldiers opened fire in the wealthy residential area of Ikoyi, piled the dead bodies on to a lorry and drove away.

What transpired way back in time,

June 24, 1993
By KENNETH B. NOBLE,
Correction Appended
The Nigerian military Government today annulled the presidential elections held 11 days ago and abandoned its promise to hand power back to elected civilians anytime soon.

The announcement was made in a decree signed by the military leader, Gen. Ibrahim Babangida, who said "these steps were taken to save our judiciary from being ridiculed and politicized locally and internationally."

But Western diplomats and opposition figures in Nigeria, interviewed by telephone from here, dismissed General Babangida's excuse for canceling the elections as a duplicitous attempt to wrap in legal terms what is, in effect, an indefinite extension of military rule.

For one thing, the general's critics said, the military authorities tightly controlled virtually every aspect of the planned transition to civilian rule. Not only did they limit the number of legal parties to two -- the right-of-center Republican National Convention and the left-of-center Social Democracy Party -- but they also named them, wrote the parties' platforms, appointed senior party officials, provided campaign funds and even built thousands of party offices.

"The military has only themselves to blame for this mess," said a Western diplomat with extensive experience in West Africa. He, like many Nigerians, said an orderly transition to civilian rule was doomed from the start because the military authorities were not genuinely committed to the process. Suspend Electoral Commission

In the brief announcement today, General Babangida also suspended the National Electoral Commission, which, since multiparty elections were first announced in 1986, has been the main governmental body responsible for restoring democracy.

The presidential elections, held on June 12 in Nigeria's 30 states, involved chunks of land that are in many instances more populous and wealthy than many African nations. Roughly one out of every four black Africans is a Nigerian.

And although voter turnout was light by past standards, there was no evidence of the violence and vote-rigging that marred the last round of balloting, nearly a decade ago. Foreign observers generally described the elections as free and fair.

Nonetheless, the election results had been delayed after a spate of legal challenges in the Nigerian courts. By most accounts, the most significant lawsuit was brought on behalf of the Association for a Better Nigeria, a lobbying group of wealthy businessmen, politicians and military officers who had led a highly visible campaign urging General Babangida to remain in office at least four more years.

The association had charged that the transition to civilian rule had already been compromised by widespread vote tampering and corruption. Last week the association won a court order restraining the National Electoral Commission from releasing final election results. The military authorities said today that the profusion of court cases had made a "ridiculous charade" of the elections that could eventually "culminate in judicial anarchy."

The nation's ruling body, the National Security and Defense Council, which includes General Babangida and other senior military leaders, met this morning and will meet again on Thursday.

There was no immediate reaction to the cancellation from Moshood K. O. Abiola, the candidate of the Social Democratic Party, who held a sturdy lead over his opponent, Bashir Tofa of the National Republican Convention, before counting was halted last week by the National Electoral Commission.

Tonight, according to reports monitored here, Lagos, Nigeria's largest city, was calm. Criticism From Soyinka

But leading figures in the country, including Wole Soyinka, a writer and an opponent of military rule, have warned that further attempts to block the transition to civilian rule could plunge the country into anarchy.

"A very tiny but powerful cabal is toying with the future of our nation," Mr. Soyinka said in a statement. "Any further delay in making the people's verdict official is a deliberate cultivation of chaos."

Gani Fawehinmi, a lawyer and human rights worker, said in a statement: "The nation is in danger. It is abundantly clear that the military government is leading Nigeria into a political crisis of immeasurable, chaotic proportions."

The military has been in control in Nigeria for all but nine years since the country gained its independence from Britain in 1960.

It remains to be seen how Nigerians, especially those from the Yoruba ethnic group in the populous southwest, will react to the cancellation. Many Yoruba have long resented the domination of Nigeria's political life by the mostly northern Hausa-Falani ethnic group, and were ecstatic when one of their own, Mr. Abiola, appeared to have won the recent balloting.

Moreover, there is a pervasive sense among Nigerian Christians that the military authorities favor the northern Islamic groups, who make up about half the country's 90 million people. Under Maj. Gen. Mohammed Buhari, General Babangida's predecessor, Christian schools were taken over by the state, and permits to build churches were held up while the construction of mosques increased.
