The Panama Papers scandal will deepen around the world today when the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists puts most of the digital cache of documents online, accessible to all.

The ICIJ said it will release the documents in a searchable database at 1800 GMT on Monday accessible to the public at offshoreleaks.icij.org.
The US-based organization said the release “will not be a ‘data dump’” of the sort the Wikileaks group became known for.

But it will reveal names and information on 200,000 offshore entities set up by wealthy individuals around the world.

The documents are from 2.6 terabytes of data given to a German newspaper, Sueddeutsche Zeitung, over a year ago by an anonymous source using the name “John Doe.”

Senator Bukola Saraki: Panama files now open to the world


– Data from ‘John Doe’ –

The data came from nearly four decades of digital archives of one Panamanian law firm specialized in creating and running offshore entities, Mossack Fonseca, which says its computer records were hacked from abroad.

The German newspaper gave access to the trove to the ICIJ, and through it to hundreds of journalists in different countries.

Reports thus far have focused on scores of high-profile individuals: political leaders, celebrities and a few criminals.

– Iceland’s prime minister was forced to resign when his name was linked to an offshore company.

– British Prime Minister David Cameron ended up admitting he profited from an offshore firm started by his father.

– Russian President Vladimir Putin’s closest circle was named in the revelations, prompting Putin to claim the Panama Papers was a US plot against him.

– Argentine President Mauricio Macri was also linked to offshore companies.

– China censored media and online social networks from mentioning links between the families of Chinese leaders with offshore entities.


– Other notable people made uncomfortable by the documents include Argentine football star Lionel Messi, Hong Kong film star Jackie Chan and Spanish movie director Pedro Almodovar. In Nigeria, Senate President Bukola Saraki, his wife, Toyin, Lt. General TO Danjuma, Oando chief, Wales Tinubu, Folorunso Coker, a tourism commissioner in Lagos were among the people named as salting hidden assets away in Panama, Seychelles and British Virgin Islands.

Mossack Fonseca on Thursday issued a “cease and desist” letter to the US-based ICIJ, saying putting up the information publicly would violate attorney-client privilege.

– ‘Should be public’ –

But there is no sign of the ICIJ calling off the online database. The organization says it is important the public be able to look at information on any offshore company in the Panama Papers.
“We think that information about who owns the company should be public and transparent,” Marina Walker Guevara, deputy director of the ICIJ, told CNN.

She stressed, however, that “this is not disclosing private information en masse.”

Since reporting on the Panama Papers started at the beginning of April, Panama’s government has been struggling to persuade the world that it is not a haven for tax-dodgers and money launderers.
France has already put the Central American nation on its blacklist of tax havens, and other Western countries are considering following suit.

The online release of more Panama Papers could deepen the damage to Panama’s image.
“We’re very concerned that the country’s reputation will be affected by this situation,” the minister for government, Milton Henriquez, told TVN-2 television.

Panama’s pushback against being singled out as a facilitator of offshore business was further complicated just days ago when the United States declared members of one of country’s most prominent business families, the Wakeds, among the top global money launderers for ruthless drug cartels.

The US blacklisted many of the Waked’s 68 companies in Panama, whose interests span a bank, an upmarket shopping center, duty free outlets and media. One of the suspects, Nidal Ahmed Waked Hatum, was arrested in Colombia and is awaiting extradition to the United States to face charges.
On Sunday, Panama’s Chamber of Commerce for Industry and Agriculture acknowledged that the scandals were “rocking the country.”

Who concocted the pool,because me didn't vote swim.

More Nigerians want Nigeria’s embattled senate president, Bukola Saraki, to step down from office as he faces corruption trial at the Code of Conduct Tribunal, a poll conducted by PREMIUM TIMES has shown.

The poll, sampling public opinion on whether Mr. Saraki should resign in view of his trial, ran on the newspapers’ site for two weeks ending May 5. It showed significant public support for Mr. Saraki’s resignation.

The poll had five structured answers from which a total of 5,454 respondents chose.

A total of 3,624 respondents, representing 66 per cent, chose “Yes, he is a corrupt person”, implying the senate president is corrupt and should stand down.

Another 652, representing 12 percent, also wanted Mr. Saraki to resign, choosing “yes, he does not represent APC change agenda”.

In sum, either because “he is a corrupt person” or “he does not represent APC change agenda”, 4,276 respondents, 78 per cent, voted that Mr. Saraki should resign.

Altogether, 647 respondents, representing 12 per cent, voted “No, his travails are just political vendetta”, while 315, representing six per cent, said the Senate President should not resign. The last group voted “No, he is innocent of all charges unless proven otherwise in court”.

Therefore, 962 respondents, 17.6 per cent, elected to stand with Mr. Saraki on his vow to stay in office unless he is ultimately convicted.
The remaining 223 respondents, or four per cent, said “I don’t care” whether Mr. Saraki resigns.


The Trial

Mr. Saraki, in charge number ABT/01/15 dated September 11, 2015 and filed before the Code of Conduct Tribunal, is accused of offences ranging from anticipatory declaration of assets to making false declaration of assets in forms he filed before the Code of Conduct Bureau while he was governor of Kwara state.

The senate president is also accused of failing to declare some assets he acquired while in office as governor.

Mr. Saraki is also accused of operating foreign accounts while being a public officer.
On April 18, three new corruption charges were added to the initial 13-counts.
Mr. Saraki denies wrongdoing, and pleaded “not guilty” to the amended charges.

The prosecution has called one witness, Michael Wetkas, from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, to detail how Mr. Saraki allegedly looted Kwara State and brazenly converted state’s funds to personal use.
Mr. Saraki is yet to begin his defence.


Penalty if convicted

If eventually found guilty, the Code of Conduct Tribunal is empowered by the paragraph 18 (1)(2), Part 1 of the fifth schedule to the Constitution to remove Mr. Saraki from the National Assembly; bar him from holding any public office for a period not exceeding 10 years; and/or confiscate his properties determined as ones acquired in abuse or corruption of office.

Mr. Saraki has repeatedly accused the chairman of the Tribunal, Danladi Umar, of bias, expressing “big fear” he may not get justice from Mr. Umar.

He has filed a motion in the CCT asking Mr. Umar to disqualify himself from his trial. The motion was dismissed prompting him to seek relief of the
Appeal Court to upturn the chairman’s ruling.
The senate president also alleges that his trial is politically motivated, having emerged Senate President in defiance of the position of his party, All Progressives Congress, which favoured Ahmed Lawan from Yobe State for the position.

Mr. Saraki has also subtly accused former Lagos Governor, Bola Tinubu, of masterminding his travails, as retaliation for his opposition to Mr.
Tinubu’s ambition to contest as Muhammadu Buhari’s running mate in the last presidential poll.
I won’t resign

Mr. Saraki has since vowed not to resign. He told his colleagues in 2015 to “stand with me to defend the National Assembly!”

The Senate, last month, during a session led by Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, while his boss was attending trail at CCT, resolved to support its embattled President “to the end, except he is convicted”.

At this point in time, we all have cell phones, even small children.  It is a way for families to stay in touch during these times and we have become so accustomed to it that we do not consider that anything could be wrong with it. However, the cell phone is a highly complicated device and not all of them are made the same. Some of them even have serious problems that can cause you harm.

In this case, 13-year-ol Gabbie from Chicago found out just how dangerous these cell phones can be when she suffered 3rd-degree burns after using her device.  It all began when Gabbie got her first cell phone, a T-Mobil LG d500 for Christmas.

HER MOTHER, JACKIE FEDRO DECIDED TO TELL HER DAUGHTER’S STORY IN ORDER TO WARN OTHERS OF THIS DANGER.

https://blog.auntyacid.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/1a.jpg

Gabbie was using her phone in her room when all of a sudden Jackie heard her scream in pain! What she found shocked her.

SHE SAW THAT THE PHONE HAD BURNED HER DAUGHTER’S NECK.

https://blog.auntyacid.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/2-17.jpg

GABBIE WAS GRABBING HER NECK WHILE SCREAMING HYSTERICALLY FROM THE PAIN.

https://blog.auntyacid.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/2a.jpg

The whole thing occurred when she was talking on the phone while it was plugged into the wall.

THE CHARGER ACCIDENTALLY TOUCHED HER NECK AND THIS SENT AN ELECTRICAL CURRENT AROUND HER NECK CAUSING IT TO BURN.

While these injuries are rare, they do happen and there are several documented cases a year.  Usually, the phone causes injury if the lithium ion battery is overheated. Also, another big danger is when you purchase a third party charger that is not equipped to handle your specific phone.

THAT’S WHY IT’S IMPORTANT TO USE THE CHARGER PROVIDED BY THE MANUFACTURER ONLY.

he phone was purchased at the T-Mobil store.  T-Mobile has offered to pay her daughter’s medical bills and send her a new phone in exchange for the old one. They wanted it back for testing.

HER DAUGHTER IS HEALING.

However, this incident has left a mark that will last a long time.

JACKIE TELLS THIS STORY IN HOPES THAT OTHERS WILL TAKE EXTRA PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING THEIR CELLULAR DEVICES.
