The only Yoruba man that's openly challenging the Government to action and yet some slaves still insult him.
When Jonathan was in power we held him accountable for the actions of the Niger Delta militants,President Buhari should also be held accountable as the President,GCFR and a respected elder of the fulani tribe.
People of the south west need to break free from their negative slave mentality and challenge this government to action.
It's an insult on them,that a visitor comes to your house and abuses an elder,and nothing is been said or done.
where is OPC,Yoruba youth council and AFENEFERE?

atbu1983:
It means we now have a serious president who is relatively less corrupt compared to the past PDP presidents.

Please spare me the sermon, Is it now they know SARAKI is corrupt?... When he was hobnobbing with them during the campaign and going with B00HARI on foreign trips; He was a saint. But now he has become the scape goat.

ridwanomooba:
Following the development in the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) today, Friday, September 18, 2015 when the Tribunal chose to ignore the subsisting order of a Federal High Court by sitting, we hereby state our position as follows:

1. While the Senate President, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, had stated and maintains that he is ready to submit himself to due process of the law on any issue concerning him, he also believes he has an inalienable right to resort to the same judiciary for protection when he feels his fundamental rights are about to be infringed upon.

2. It is for this reason that Dr. Saraki, having satisfied himself that the case filed by the CCB and the manner in which the case was filed show that he will not be given justice, resorted to the Federal High Court for the determination of the issues of competence of the prosecutor as well as compliance with the procedure stipulated in the Code of Conduct Bureau and Tribunal Act.

3. The Federal High Court on Thursday, September 17, 2015, therefore ordered that the all parties in the case should appear before it on Monday, September 21,  2015. The implication of this ruling by a Court of competent jurisdiction is that the sitting today has been overtaken by event. It is for this reason that Dr. Saraki chose to go about with his normal official schedule.


4. Today at the Tribunal, Counsel to the Senate President, Mr. M. A. Mahmud (SAN), raised a motion stating that there is a pending constitutional matter before the Federal High Court to be decided on Monday and that the Tribunal should hold the trial until the constitutional matter is disposed of.

5. We are however dismayed that the Tribunal chose to disregard the order of the Federal High Court and the motion to suspend hearing till Monday when all parties are expected to argue their positions on the constitutional matter.

6. It is also a surprise to us that despite the application by the lead counsel to the Senate President that he will produce Dr. Saraki on Monday and the personality of the person  involved as the Number three man in the country, the Tribunal insisted on issuing a warrant of arrest as if its intention is simply to embarrass Dr. Saraki. We are not unmindful of the fact that the Tribunal is acting under political influence and external pressure. This is dangerous to our democracy.

7. The conduct of the Tribunal  today left nobody in doubt that it cannot do justice on the matter before it. It is also clear that today's decision is an abuse of the rule of law which portends danger to our judicial system. The Tribunal has equally set a bad precedent in the way and manner it conducted itself during the proceedings.

8. We want to emphasise the fact that this is not part of any war against corruption but using state institutions to fight political opponents and seeking to achieve  through the back door what some people cannot get through democratic process. 

9. We need to caution here that in a desperate bid to settle political scores and nail imaginary enemies, we should not destroy our democratic institutions and heat the polity for selfish reasons. Let us all learn from history.


9. The Senate President is a law abiding citizen and his absence from the Tribunal today was based  on the legal advice he received from his counsel that the Tribunal will respect the decision of the Federal High Court which is obviously a superior court of records. Also, he relied  on a letter from the Chief Justice of Nigeria directed to the Chairman of the Tribunal last May that they are not judicial officers and are inferior to the regularsanni High Court as defined by the law and that they take official oath not judicial oath.

 10. We  will like to state therefore that Dr. Saraki will not do anything to undermine the judicial process and authority but he will always act to protect his fundamental human rights.

End

Signed

Yusuph Olaniyonu
Special Adviser (Media and Publicity) to the Senate President.

Mogidi:
The same govt fighting Saraki for corruption intends sending corruption personified Amaechi to Saraki's senate for clearance to be "noise maker".
This illegality won't be allowed to stand, Nigeria is not a banana republic yet.

Eziachi:
I cannot remember anyone that charged Buhari to court for forgery and he refused to appear or got and injunction to stop himself appearing to defend self.
The same for Amaechi.
Tinubu was charged and docked by this same court few years ago and he appeared in the dock and the trial later collapsed for lack of merit.
On the other hand, only mindless political inspired person still believe that Buhari did not attend a secondary schools. You need to wake up and leave politics to the politicians and make good use of your God given own intelligent and think for yourself, that's unless, unless you are one of them.

Eziachi:
Nigerians are their own worst enemies especially the so called masses who are supposed to be the main victims of corruption by politicians and civil servants.

You now have a government through their actions and body language has empowered all agencies of the State to do what the law has empowered them to do but all you get was negative comments riddled with innuendos, conspiracy theories and abject stupidity.
Why would I care if Saraki is being witchhunted for being corrupt? I said the same during OBJs period that if you don't want to be witchhunted, please keep your nose clean and there will be nothing to witch hunt you with.

The very first place a witch hunted victim want to be is the court. So how can you be running away from the court and also screaming witch hunting too? Innocent man supposed to love the court and not using court to prevent self going to another court to defend yourself.

In true democratic climate, people willingly resign from their position, so as to have all the time in the world to clear their name. If Saraki is using a corrupt court injunction to stop self appearing before a court of law, what right has he got making laws and for him? What again is the job the court, if not to punish the guilty and set the innocent free?
The judges the issues this injunctions stopping courts, politics and other agencies from doing their job deserve to be stoned. Bill Clinton was a sitting president when prosecutor Kenneth Starr questioned him over Monica Lewinsky to established if he had prejured himself. He did say am the president, I got immunity or approach so corrupt judges to issue immunity from being questioned.

What moral has Saraki got now asking any person or bodies to appear before any Senate investigative committee to answer questions?
My worst anger are reserved for the idiotic conspiracy theorists going on about APC or Tinubu.
When does the two controls the judiciary or the anti corrupt agencies? Wasn't Tinubu himself docked for operating a foreign account which he appeared and defended himself and the case was struck out for lack of merit?
Why didn't Tinubu use his supposed almighty power then to prevent his own trial? Or use it to prevent Saraki being the Senate president? How can anyone be so daft and bereft?

Some idiots are shouting "why now"? So why not now? Does crime has expiring date? 70 years after the 2nd world war Nazi criminals are still being persecuted for their crimes, so why should a crime committed few years ago be declared as expired because everything in Nigeria is political black and white? Haha!!

What does you Nigerians want? Do you love corruption or just pretend to hate it? If you hate corruption why do you always make excuses for criminals irrespective of their positions; they equally stole through all sorts of electoral malpractices?
No one has ever said that a robber was being witch hunted by the police or his robbery crime has expired and asking police "why now". How many of you will support a robber that got injunction preventing the police from questioning or arrest him? Or even preventing the court for summoning him for trial? But these guys are worse than normal armed robbers.

What a country and what a people!!g
A crooked and cursed people!!.

Marine chemist, i wish to tender my short explaination sciemtifically as follows:
This slow mixing is driven by three factors
1 DENSITY: Density gradient of dissolved ions(tot. Salinity across).
The sea water may appear as if they don't mix, they do. What u see is a phenomenon called thermohaline circulation, where sea water with different densities delineate vertically..... The mixing process is slow tho.2 WIND REGIME:
The wind movement in alaska depend on coriolis coupled with ekman force where different water stratas circulate horizontaly and virtically at angle 45°. Causing minimal homogenization of water bodies. This slow mixing is also dependent on first factor above. Wind is one factor that controls water mixing from 1-down to near 500m. From the pic u can see it a calmer sea...no turbulence, no wave with shoals.
3 LIGHT
What u see clearly as boundary is light back scattering/reflection incident on the water body. Water bodies with more salt (tot ion) will appear mor turbid there by impeding light penetration. So ions with different salts allow reflection of light favoring wavelength tending to blue in uv-vis band. The clearer water simply means less salt and deeper light penetration, compared the the darker side. Its been proven that white light penetration is highest for blue.
My explanation doesn't mean there is no God. its meant to de-mystify and buttress further on earlier premise that they do not mix.

AbuadStudent:
Mr barcanista sir, fellow readers, I'm not much of a political analyst, heck..I'm not even one. I just follow up news daily on Nairaland and other avenues like blog and newspapers, i have watched carefully for a long time, and this is what I have to say.

From what I saw, GEJ's administration was riddled with corruption, just as much as those of the other administrations. I have seen few instances where corrupt individuals were let scott free. But that is not my problem. My problem was the perception of Jonathan as a leader. Jonathan portrayed himself as a soft man, one who can be used, whom someone can ride on. He Portrayed himself as a weak individual, choosing silence where strength is needed. Nobody wants that kind of leader, A stubborn country like Nigeria doesn't need that. Which is why majority of us wanted change.

ENTER BUHARI

So buhari enters, No ministers, nothing. The fact that ministers are important is good, but the fact that PMB could withstand media pressure, and hold his ground on when he wants to appoint ministers is a marvel to behold. Màybe buhari has not done anything, but his image has droven Nigeria towards the good side of the world. We can boast of better power supply now, reducing corruption, not to talk of the super boosted nigerian military, clearing camps like a swat of flies. Nigeria needs a Strong, disciplined man, one who makes decisions and stands by them. A man who doesn't change by time. A man with strong personal conviction.

As I have always said, PMB might not be a good man, but he is a good leader. He may not be the leader Nigeria wants, But he is the kind of leader Nigeria needs.

So to all opposition, and the Anti-APC, I urge you to forget your party problems and join this Man in building a better Nigeria. A Nigeria for me and you. Maybe this Article won't go a long way, but who cares..its my own little contribution to our greatness.

I hope this gets to front page so the world can see. I love Nigeria. Do you?

“It is the height of political mischief for anyone or group masquerading as League of Imams and Alfas to have used our revered religious and non-political organization to promote their personal political agenda.

Na today??

“We are non-political and it amounts to ridiculing the name of Almighty Allah and our great Prophet Mohammed for anyone or group to drag the Islamic religion into politics.

story for the dogs..


We therefore wish to warn those behind the mischief to stop or risk the wrath of the Almighty Allah (SWT).”

just this? you mean this statement? this is diluted islam, They should be killed.


“We are solidly behind the governor and in the overall interest of Ekiti State, we will continue to pray for the success of the present administration.”


With the level of partisanship exhibited in our mosques these days we should doubt this. My friend Abdulhakeem7, please forgive me. I still see it this way.

BishopMagic:
Outside Falana being a typified ambulance chaser and his highly partisan approach in legal interpretation and sense of Justice which has eroded any respect I use to hold of him, the fact that Falana is being propped by that kleptomaniac drug trafficker, Tinubu is more than enough reason why Buhari should never consider appointing Falana as Minister of Justice.

The lame game plan by Tinubu in his draught logic in this game of chess, is to position Falana into a position that will serve his own selfish political interst.

You may recall that during the Yaradua impasse, the responsibility of setting up a medical board of inquiry into the health status of the now late president fell primarily on the then Minister of Justice, Mike Aadonka.

This is exactly what Tinubu hopes to do with Falana what Mike Aadonka refused to do.

Tinubu believes strongly that Buhari's health will soon be an issue and the only way he can secure his puppet Osinbanjo to be appointed acting President is to see that the President of the Senate and Artorney-General be under his control.

This is why Tinubu is rooting for Falana.

Anybody in the Buhari camp reading this should first and foremost consider this motive above others on why Tinubu wants Falana.
