Truth about all this is that the FGN has responded well but the protest has been hijack by people like Sowore and Yesefu for selfish political reasons. The protesters don't even know why they are protesting self. The youth of this country are also very immature for calling for the scrapping of a serious crime unit and asking FG not to set up another structure that will in turn fill the gap, but when crime begins to increase in the South then the same idiots will cry that no security. All of you these 15-35 year old are DUMB

Wealth riches its peak for a human being when he is able to provide health, feed, cloth, and shelter himself and his people, anything above that money has no intrinsic use. Vanity=uselessness

So Turkey is more dangerous than Mexico, Jamaica, Afghanistan, Iraq

Na wa ooo. Messi ahead of Rinaldo, let's be objective and look at the numbers and achievements. CR7 is above. But I still have zidane and ronaldinho above them

Christians always crying ''I'm the saint, the other ones are evil, HELPS ME Oh'' Fucking cry babies.

Book haram's victims are about 95% Muslims, the killings in the middle belt are ethnic clashes ( as the case is each ethnic group has a predominant religion which makes it look like it's religious fighting)

If they was a christian cleansing in the north by Muslim I can assure you that they won't be a single Christian community in the north. Do you by how many factors Muslims outnumber Christians in the North.

This report is rubbish

Ashawooooooooooss

We need to get the full story. Both sides. Becoz some nigerians use dat to harass the sars when they do their job

So there should go ahead and arrest sitting governor?

Most of you guys are very dull

In the course of his eight years stewardship, Mr. Abukakar has managed to corner controlling shares in Bank PHB, controlling shares in Intel, an oil services company with operates in Angola, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon and Sao Tome and Principe; controlling shares in AP Petroleum, which he was forced to divest recently in a hail of controversy regarding the ethics of his management of the country’s privatization program. Added to all these assets must be included the control of huge assets in real estate in Yola where today he has 146 houses; the largest print press in Northern Nigeria; and the control of the Faro private water business.

The vulnerability of the vice president, who in his two-term tenure has recorded N60 Billion worth of bank transactions, has always made it easy to point at elite corruption to illustrate the subversion of Nigeria’s national efforts at constructing a fair, accountable and transparent polity this much was raised by the BBC interviewer earlier today. The vice-president was cited for diverting $125m from a public trust fund into his personal businesses. The $125m was diverted from the Petroleum Trust Development Fund (PTDF).
An excerpted part of a recent presentation by the Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to the Nigerian Senate Ad Hoc Committee on the Probe of the PTDF renders the issues in a graphic brief: “[b]Atiku Abukakar is the Vice President of Nigeria and he was the one overseeing the activities of the PTDF. He inaugurated the Interim Management Committee of the Fund in September 2000.He played prominent roles in the approvals for release of PTDF funds and their placement in two banks. The VP had an outstanding interest in the placement of the PTDF funds in these two banks. For one, even the $125 million for the implantation of some specific projects was not utilized for that purpose, rather because of their diversion to their placements in the two banks (TIB & ETB). Prior to the placements of the PTDF funds, the Vice President held several meetings with either the ES (Executive Secretary of the PTDF) alone and sometime the ES and Mike Adenuga to discuss modalities regarding the placement of the funds either in TIB or ETB. The placements were done at the detriment of the Fund as they were made at interest rates below the average CBN Minimum Rediscount Rate (MRR) even when he was strongly advised against that.”

“The request for the release of the $20 million, was predicated on the issue of the ongoing projects being executed by the Fund, whereas it was not so. The funds were released again by the VP and were sent straight to the same placement in TIB. This second release according to reports was done without the knowledge and approval of the President and the FEC[/b], even though the President’s own pattern of management of the Petroleum Resources ministry pointed to the fact that both the VP and the President might have shared. As these funds were hitting the two preferred banks, “loans” were packaged by TIB, even without adequate collateral, for his long time friend and business associate, Otunba Oluwole Johnson Haliru Fasawe through NDTV and Mofas. In Mofas, one of the directors is Alhaji Adamu Abubakar, a son of the VP. Through the VP’s name was not stated as a director of Marine Float, evidence abounds that the account is controlled by him. First, the VP admitted he paid N30million for the property from that account; secondly, most of the beneficiaries from the account are his friends, associates.

“Similarly, as the funds were hitting ETB, Otunba Mike Adenuga made $20million deposit for Globacom license, the second national carrier. A little scrutiny of the equity ownership structure of the company revealed that Otunba Mike Adenuga lied about the ownership of the company. When the transfer of the $50million by PTDF from its account in UBA Plc New York was made in ETB, Mike Adenuga gave the Vice President the sum of N322million (i.e. N300m on 27/11/02 & N22 on 06/03/03) through his Marine Float account domiciled in Bank PHB Plc through his aides- Akinyera and Ajibade. N21 million was paid to the VP through a draft raised in the name of Umar Pariya, his Personal Assistant.
The Vice President held several meeting with the US Congressman Williams J. Jefferson both in Nigeria and abroad in relation to business ventures, which included NDTV and Rosecom.net, an ISP. When the business relationship between NDTV and iGate collapsed, his assistance was sought to extinguish the outstanding approximately $2million already paid by NDTV. Even though he denied assistance on extinguishing the amount, he accepted, conveying a letter from US Congressman Jefferson to the Honorable Minister of Communication Chief Cornelius Adebayo in relation with iGate and Rosecom.net business venture.

“The VP’s business interest in NDTV was confirmed when he made an initial deposit of N30million in January 1, 2003 from his Marine Float account in Bank PHB Plc for the purchase of the N200million property being used as NDTV Head Office. His interest also influenced the placement of PTDF funds in TIB from where Otunba Fasawe obtained “loan” and completed the payment of N170million for the property at the Wuse. The VP’s interest in NDTV is further buttressed by the fact that he even acted as a referee to Otumba Fasawe for the sourcing of the licensing of NDTV in Nigeria Communication Commission (NCC). Investigation also revealed that the Vice President severally met contractors of NDTV at Jada, his hometown on his interest in the company.”

The burden of proof on Mr. Abubakar today therefore will rest on how he hopes to construct a coherent argument that his two decades of public service in the customs department is enough to make him the multi-millionaire and one of the nation’s richest business men; and how he wants to lead a nation struggling to crawl out of the quagmire created by a reputation of grand corruption when he could supervise such brazen deal making at PTDF and seek to legitimize it as normal and appropriate state policy. As for us at Saharareporters, we are still awaiting the promise made to us by the VP to publicly declare his assets and ship over to us the Ghana-Must-Ghana bag containing all the oil contracts awarded by President Obasanjo in the last 7-years!

Edgal is the best cp for Lagos as of now. Every lagosian knows dat naw. Fake!!!

Even this one is a Nasarawa guy not full Hausa

I'm referring to regional politics when i say Hausa

Hausa itself is spoken by all these people in the region but does not mean they are monolithic

ye but its denegrating to there own tribes. They also have separate languages and culture. Would you call some people in niger delta igbos, while some of them speak igbo

IbrahimDamola:
Why is baba buharri not giving we Yoruba Muslims appointment but neglecting us? Does he know how many knocks the average yoruba muslim skull receives from other southerners for being the beast of burden (abuobaku camels) for baba buharrri?

the police service commission chairman and chief of defence staff are all northeners from maiduguri abi?

Yankee101:
Hausa to Hausa

We really need regional autonomy

I DON'T see this union working at this rate

idris was not hausa but nupe

If he extends this IGP I will lose the remaining hope i have on Buhari because this IGP has been the most incompetent of recent memories. Will Buhari reward failure or is trying to rig this election? Buhari may not be that integrity guy after all. I got deceived

netpro:
PDP keep running from pillar to post. Atiku campaign is in confusion. No ideas, no plans, no funds, no support.

All Atiku/PDP has left is to troll Buhari and react like nuclear device.

The fact remains that President Buhari has the right, power and legal authority to fire or extend the IG on the post, so why is PDP shedding crocodile tears? Bunch of corrupt trolls.

Bring the law

I do supply of lubricants and engine oil from Germany. Any one interest should contact me

I have lubricants for supply from Germany. I need a serious buyer

He doesn't need nYSC to serve a political appointment. He just need to have a secondary school certificate

Corrupt minded persons Akpabio and co are probably laughing right now.

If the man has integrity why not say he will pay half or some percentage at least, but he expects does that struggle on a daily basis to also provide for him?

Forbes Qfrica is not Forbes Magazine totally different sites. Nigeria is among the worst performing economies in Africa and the world. Gdp growth is bearish. Nigeria is now second economy in Africa

MrPolitics:
What is this one saying? Nigeria has been Africa's largest economy since 2013 and is definetely not Africa's best performing economy in 2018 with such slow GDP growth.
But it remains the largest economy

now second

Military training is for a physically sound person. It's intense .

the main issue is that they are reprived of good sleep to recover. Even if you are in good health but don't get the proper sleeping time your body will tell you. They sleep about 2-3 hours per day

OkaNaUbe:


I did. Just left recently.

Out of spoilt oranges, one or two must be better than others.

mohammed bello is the worst fct minister ever. This is comin from someone that initially liked the man, but i must try always to speak the truth, the man is well below the par

OkaNaUbe:
The North Central geopolitical zone comprises 6 States and Federal Capital Territory as follows:
Kogi, Niger, Benue, Kwara, Plateau, Nassarawa and the Federal Capital Territory.

In my opinion, it is hard to award the best Governor in this zone but the worst is very easy to identify.

I award the best performing Governor/Minster to Mohammed Bello of FCT, if not for anything but maintaining the sanity of the Territory, while I award the worst performing Governor and a shame to the youth is Kogi State Governor, YAHAYA ADOZA BELLO.

What do you think

you obviously don't live in FCT mohammed Bello is the worst in the entire country period

They are claring land to build estates nearby maybe they needed to break some rocks

sleuthhound:
well i disagree wit u ma! Dis isnt d reason 4 heartless or misconduct by any soldier 2wards civilians outside Barracks. D problem lies with the "check &balance" of d system, whats d RECRUITMENT system,EDUCATIONAL background, reportin system &disciplinary measures of erring soldiers..esp d low ranks.
U will now see y d system is rotten,
1. when pple get-in based on who-u-know, rather dan what qualifies u& why u wanna soldier. U neva see say sm who cant even read&write english, so hw dat wan go understand oath im dey swear b4 soldiering. Hausa only is d language understood.
2. No proper mental checks, not all soldiers r in right state of mind, some r sufferin 4rm PTSD &co. trust 9ja we no dey send tins lik dat. Remember dat foolish airforce goat dat killed his female colleauge in makurdi, just passd out in jan dis yr as cadets o
3. Not all know wat dat job of soldiering is about, 4 9ja here, most enta cos dem wan flex muscle & wear camo or embezzle funds
4. Usa & russian army training is worse dan urs, check am on youtube. But dem get strict disciplinary measures wit civilian relationship outside Barracks.

my brother she is right

Just like you don't see SWAT teams in america anyhow, I think it is wrong for police and SARS to be seen with assault riffles like AK47 just anyhow
