AustineE1: Most of the successes recorded in the battle field by the past government was through our airforce, but ever since this present government came in, not even a single successful bombardment has been recorded by the air force. Why do I have this feelings that PMB has surrounded himself with incompetent people.I guess he was never prepared for the task ahead. They are functioned very well when the creek in Calabar was bombed. |

LocalChamp: Okonjo-Iweala withdrew $1bn for Jonathan’s re-election —Oshiomhole
July 13, 2015 Written by Osemwengie Ben Ogbemudia, Benin
Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State has accused the former Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala of illegally taking $1 billion from the federation account to prosecute the re-election bid of former President Goodluck Jonathan.
Speaking at a seminar organized by the Edo State government for Permanent Secretaries, Directors and Deputy Directors, the governor said the former minister also needs to tells Nigerians how the Excess Crude Account was drawn down to $4.1 billion from the peak $10 billion when no approval was given by the National Economic Council for any withdrawal.
The theme of the workshop was: “Enhancing IGR in Edo, Issues, Prospects and Challenges.”
Oshiomhole, who said Okonjo-Iweala would have been declared a pathological liar if she were to be a witness in court due to the inconsistencies in her statements, said a forensic audit would truly determine how much was illegally spent from the federation account under her watch as minister.
He said the state government would now hold Permanent Secretaries, Directors and Deputy Directors responsible for any fraud detected in their departments, saying the government has trimmed down the cost of running government.
He said: “The truth is, many things went wrong even at the federal level. As you might have read in the papers, while the federal government, under Goodluck Jonathan, with the then Coordinating Minister of the Economy liked to blame governors for wasteful spending, for not saving for the rainy day, for not investing properly, the truth is the real weakness in the Nigerian federal chain has been the Federal Government.
“Our hope is that with the new President, given his pedigree we will break from the past.
“As I’m sure you will soon begin to hear when all the numbers are published, last week, I complained aloud that Edo State lost about N10 billion over a four year period from only one source, the NLNG remittance to the federation account.
“How did I arrive at the figure? I used my 4-Figure Table and I asked myself at $2.1 billion remitted by NLNG as taxes and Shell, and by the way, Shell is not the only oil operative, we have Chevron and several others. They shared the $2.1 billion based on the revenue allocation formula, Edo State got about N2.27 billion. So I said, thank God this money came after the departure of Okonjo-Iweala and President Jonathan. If the PDP were still in charge in Abuja, this money would have been taken.”

Note that one day you will be out of office and you are setting precedents that you will not be able to fathom when the time comes. 1 Like |

Family / Re: My Friend's Wife Is Making Life Difficult For Me by mescapee: 9:10am On Jul 08, 2015 |
mkpikpub: I need an advice fellow Nairalanders. My Friend's wife is making my once easy life very complicated. I have a very close friend. We went through the same secondary school and university.
We are both working for different multinational companies. We are very comfortable and have a very wonderful family. My Friend's wife wants an affair with me. She's so open about it and I have told her it's a big No.
She disturbs me with calls and love text messages. I have not told my wife and I have not told my friend. Recently my friend travelled to US on a training and he called me about 11P.m that I should help take the wife to his company's clinic because according to my friend she was in crises. My wife did not object to my rendering this assistance at that time of the night and I took the risk for a friend but when I got there, the two kids were already in bed. I was expecting to see her in a critical state, but she was not. The next thing she did was to send her maid upstairs to stay with the kids that she was going to the hospital and will lock up. I noticed that she was trying to feign some abdominal pains in front of the maid. All of a sudden, she came up and held me tight.
I manage to take her to my car and I ended up driving her around the streets of Ph. She confessed she wanted to sleep with me and that we should lodge somewhere till morning. I told her to give me time to think about it. This was just for me to return her home. Should I tell my wife and her husband?
Please help I am not myself anymore. Bros, From your write up, I can see that your friend's wife very smart. I can also deduce that your will to say "no" is getting weaker. The question is, 'for how long are you willing to go before you give in to her evil intentions?' For those advising you to get evidence against her, you may be embarking on a suicide mission. Because I believe that you always delete her text messages as soon as you must have READ them. I will advise that if you want to get evidence against her, fortify yourself with prayers and fasting before embarking on such a mission. Make sure get all the evidence you need in one mission. After getting this one evidence, these are the options: 1) Continue looking for more evidence and ending granting her request. 2) Tell your friend and show him the evidence. The only problem with this is that you cannot tell the level of maturity of anyone until they are in real-life situation just like this one. The taste of the pudding is in the eating. 3) Tell your wife and show him the evidence. Same problem in (2) above applies. Most people on this thread will agree that even if your wife is a " MUMMY" in church, you cannot trust her reaction with such evidence. 4) If you know her parents, go to them with evidence. This also depends on your assessment of them. 5) If you attend the same church, take your case to your [b]PASTOR and MUMMY [/b]in church. Above all bro , pray and ask the Almighty for WISDOM. I believe that God found you capable of bearing this BURDEN. Do not disappoint HIM. Good Luck |

Politics / Re: South West/yorubas Have Entered One Chance, Ss, Sw, Se Unity Is The Remedy.. by mescapee: 2:50pm On Jul 04, 2015 |
aldrick: The Southern Nigeria's Peoples Assembly, SNPA, Afenifere, OPC, Ohaneaze Ndiigbo, Yoruba Council of Obas/ Traditional Rulers, SDP, UPN, NGOs, etc., etc., all advised Tinubu's SW APC on the plot of the North to seize political-power from former President Jonathan and the entire South, but what did Tinubu and his uninformed followers do? Betrayed the entire South. They even defied the Ooni of Ife, as being bought/paid off by Jonathan. Even the Soyinkas and Falanas of the SW knew, but they sold out for the sake of tribalism.
Femi Aribisila warned this would happen and no one listened. The North is taking Tinubu apart before his own eyes. The only thing that will save Nigeria is when SW, SS and SE come together as one and move the country forward. We have seen North in power for over 38 years and nothing to show for it. These three regions needs each other for Nigeria to step out of poverty and reach its potential and dream. Bickering never solve any problem. This is a task and challenge that could be overcome, but very difficult. The earlier the leaders of these three regions come to this reality the better for all. I understand that Trust requires track record. The longer we delay to put our personal differences aside the longer the damage will take to be repaired. Have a great day. They should wait till 2019!!! that is if hatred allows that |

Tinubu could, by way of vengeance, single handedly ensure APC doesn't return in 2019. If history has taught us anything, it taught us NEVER to underestimate the power and reach of that man. Underestimate ko! Reach ni!! PMB is now APC's party leader. Tinubu should consult Ekwueme on how to absorb the shock of the loss. Worst case scenario, he should go back to his cell (SW), form a new party, align with a mega party (of course PDP) and take the mantle of leadership from APC come 2019. 9 Likes 1 Share |

Take a cue from Osama and Al-Qaeda and the tactical decimation of their command structure WRONG MOVE!!! Negotiating with BH will yield no positive result. Let me guess: Demand #1 - Impose their type of Sharia on the Federation (or in the entire north). Demand #2 - Declare their own type of caliphate within a region in the north Demand #3 - Abolish education in the affected places. Demand #4 - You can add to the list. 1 Like 1 Share |

He dismantled military checkpoints, secretly ordered a stop in military onslaught against BH, secretly ordered the prisons service to transfer BH member down East, sacked Dss men from aso rock and even considering scrapping them and found a great ally in bornu state Gov.(a man who openly called for amnesty for BH)
The fact is that buhari is a terrorist . Hence he doesnt need a cabinet or secret service to surround him. This is to ensure his decisions and directives are secretly made and is not subjected to any form of deliberation and to minimize information leakage.

OSHIOMOLE REPLIES OKONJO-IWEALA, SAYS 'I DON'T WANT TO SAY SHE KNOWS HOW TO LIE WITH STATISTICS'
Speaking on Channels TV this morning, Governor Oshiomole said; "I think with all due respect to former Minister Okonjo Iweala, she knows how to play around, I don't want to say lie with statistics. I have made this point that she keeps opening only parts of the pages and not the entire book. The logic of transparency is that the honorable minister must publish in full what is accruing to the federation account month to month and what is distributed to who?
What she has been publishing is what went to the Federal government, state government and Local government. What she has never published simultaneously is what is it that accrued during the period out of which this said some was distributed so we can net what is distributed from all that was collected so we can see what was left in the Excess Crude. Now you can see her changing the goal post. Okonjo was a member of the National Economic Council, I was a member and we have asked her and I am on record at asking her , [b]don't give us verbal report on matters of federation account. Give us written report and the power to spend is not vested in Commissioners, she knows that. You look at the constitution and tell me what section gives the commissioners of finance presided over by the Finance Minister all not elected by Nigerians. [/b]The membership of NEC is clear-the governors chaired by the Vice President representing the President, the CBN governor and other federal relevant ministries such as the ministry of National Planning. How would she avoid this level of responsibility? When people are abusing governors today nobody is talking about Finance commissioners.Sometimes not even finance Minister. Why will she rather have the conversation with Commissioners of Finance and not the governors? So she has some explanation to do."he said

Politics / Re: NASS Crisis May Lead To Buhari’s Impeachment – Lawyer by mescapee: 4:05pm On Jul 01, 2015 |
MeesterMAN: An Abia State-based constitutional lawyer and human rights activist, Dr. Anthony Agbazuere, has warned the leadership of the ruling All Progressive Congress to treat with caution, the leadership crisis rocking the National Assembly, saying it can consume both APC and President Muhammadu Buhari if not carefully handled.
Agbazuere, who gave the warning Wednesday at a press conference in Umuahia, advised APC hierarchy to “swallow their pride and accept Senator Olusola Saraki and Hon. Yakubu Dogora as Senate President, and Speaker of the House of Representatives respectively in the interest of the party and to move Nigeria forward.”
He said any attempt by APC to plot the impeachment of Saraki and Dogara “will not only fail but destroy APC.”
Agbazuere further said APC must stop threatening Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, saying his emergence “is a bitter pill which the APC must swallow to survive.”
His said, “APC must not forget that the same structure which brought Saraki also brought Ekweremadu on board, and the Senators in this alliance are greater in number.
“An attempt to threaten them may even lead to the impeachment of either President Buhari or both Buhari and his Vice, Professor Yemi Osibanjo. The implications are obvious.”
Agbazuere warned APC to stop all forms of interference in the affairs of the National Assembly to avoid rocking its boat.
Fielding questions on the controversy over the actual number of months Abia workers were owed under the immediate – past administration of ex- Governor Theodore Orji, where he served as Commissioner for Information, Agbazuere said “staff of all Ministries in the state long received their April salary before Orji bowed out.”
He debunked media reports that the state owed workers up to nine months salaries, describing such reports as “mischievous, misleading and intended by the peddlers to tarnish the image of both the past and present administration in the state.”
