Piss off. Now you are annoying me, going round in circles.
I asked you what possible reason could make a man defend corruption in Nigeria when he is not part of the government?
You start yapping nonsense.
Get the fucck out of here with your ostrich syndrome.

May God deliver your from your disgusting tribal affliction.

cstr1000:
You still have not showed me why it is silly.
We are talking about Nigeria here, not utopia. I may not be tribal, but I can't stop my neighbour from being tribal.

For an issue which has absolutely nothing to do with tribe, but the first thing which comes to your mind is tribe?

No! you are definitely very tribal, and that's the only reason you think everyone else swims in your pool; you're only capable of viewing and interpreting everything from the myopic tribal and ethnic point of view, else I cant rationalise how tribe came into this thread.

cstr1000:
It is not silly.
What could possibly possess a man to defend a 700 million naira scam if not tribal affiliation?
it is not like he is part of the government to create the bias. The only obvious connection is tribe.

There's everything silly about it. Go deliver yourself from this tribal affliction before it completely consumes what's left of your mind.

Keballl:
Where is your scathing criticism Zombie? Or you are simply waiting for a flimsy explanation to regale us with further nonsense.

If you can defend a $25 billion naira fraud, then defending N700 million fraudulent claim should be very easy.

Get out of here.

No further words for a dumbass.. bye!

Keballl:
What details? Not everyone is as daft as zombies. Folks like you love defending nonsense. Where is your scathing criticism of the current scandal this thread suggest?

Sure, you are waiting for the Presidency to release a flimsy explanation while you run along with it claiming "The details of that very case was made very clear and the case closed"

Like I said before, quit daft criticism. There are numerous reasonable things you can criticise, e.g. the cost of the portal which is just before you in this thread; but you choose to dwell on nonsense. Sinking your life in senseless criticism (just for the sake of it) doesnt make you any different from the brainless zombies you keep referring to.

cstr1000:
what do you have to say about 700 million used for website that is not for military or defense purposes.?
We are talking about a ministry with zero functionality right now.


Atleast you are not Yoruba from your claims online. Your objectivity should be still be alive somewhat.

First of all, your needless reference to tribe in this case makes you sound very very silly. Its a pain having to accept that Nigerian youths have degenerated to this senseless level tribal foolishness.

Then regarding the 700 million website or portal or whatever it is, I think that is extremely expensive and an over inflated scam; none of the explanations given make any sense so far.

ivandragon:
hmm...

what is the essence of due process if someone can just make approvals?

do you know that the tenders board that Baru is hiding under cannot approve contracts above $20m? & that is even subject to conditions to avoid contract splitting which is what the former NPA chairman went to jail for...?

do you know that even pmb has a limit to which he can give executive approval for?


a contract(s) of that sum can only be approved by the FEC, so which FEC meeting was the approval given?


if pmb gave executive approval, when was this given & where are the supporting documents to support that?

I do not understand the critical details of the case, but what I do know is that this very argument of yours pertaining to 'contracting procedures' was clarified and the entire case put aside following the clarification that 'it was not a contract.'

Keballl:
Off course, closed like that of Maina and Babachir Lawal..

Stop this silly sycophancy.

Stop daft criticism! The details of that very case was made very clear and the case closed. There are numerous meaningful things that can be criticised, quit dwelling on nonsense criticism and thinking you are being sensible/objective.

Keneking:
Fashola do quick oh...
Fashola ensure that the materials are superior to the three gorges in China.
Fashola enaure that the project conpletion happens next year.

Hydro dams cant be built in a year, no matter how you fast track the project, it would take at least 5-6 years.

Amarabae:
God bless you dear.
I don't like Rocha's but cmon, it's should not take away our sense of reasoning.
Forest Whitaker visited nkwerre some years ago and he was given a chieftaincy title as a black American who traced his root to the Igbos.
Sometimes it's used as a sign of appreciation.
When flavour visited Liberia some years back,they honoured him also with a chieftaincy title, same as when Rio Ferdinand visited Lagos back then, he was honoured with a chieftaincy title too.
It's used for appreciation.
Playing politics with emotion is one of our problems.

I think it's more or less an issue of 'herd mentality' - first person criticises, everyone else follows irrespective of whether the criticism makes any sense.

The Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, has condemned what he described as ‘unverified allegations’ raised by a senator against his ministry.

Dino Melaye, the senator representing Kogi West, had accused the ministry of mismanaging funds to the tune of $35 million and another attempt to break away with $350 million Eurobond.

Reacting to the allegations, the minister in a statement personally signed on Thursday, said he would cooperate with the Senate as he and his staff has done nothing wrong in management of the said fund.

“With all emphasis, I state that there is no factual basis for the allegations,” he said.

“The ministry, my staff and I have done nothing wrong and we will collaborate fully with the investigating committee when called upon,” he added.

He alleged an ulterior motive in the presentation of the allegations, as the senator made different allegations while raising it as a petition, and later as a motion.

“The Nigeria Sovereign Investment Authority (NSIA) had on Monday, 6th November 2017 issued a statement on the front page of The Nation Newspaper explaining that the money was not missing, stating also that the $350 million had been invested and that interest had even accrued on the money.

“If there was no ulterior motive for the allegation, this was enough reason for a reconsideration of the presentation of the motion on the floor of the Senate on the 8th of November 2017.

“But the story seemed to have changed from “missing money” last week, to a “desperate attempt to retrieve the money “, this week.”

“They offered to do this by providing Nigeria with mobile turbines of 600MW if we could find a location with Gas and Transmission evacuation infrastructure. The Afam Power Station fitted because it had transmission and evacuation facilities but all its turbines had been virtually run down.

“The investment was contingent on paying $27,990,000 million which was 15% of 8 (eight) units of 30MW turbines each totalling 240MW valued at about $186,600,000:00.

“This payment of $27.9m was made without breaching any law.

“At this moment, the turbines have arrived Nigeria and currently at the Onne Port. This is verifiable just as works are on going on the site – civil and engineering – preparing to receive the turbines , and install other equipment already at site.”

Waiting for the response from Dino. But while at it, I already know exactly what the responses in this thread would be like.

ivandragon:
I am done responding to you chaps on this matter.


I asked two pertinent questions, none of you have been able to answer them, so I leave you all to suit yourselves.


there are things going on in this administration that a lot of you close eyes to...

but, hey, its your choice, but when another administration spends $45b without passing through due process, I hope you would also defend it...

Im not aware of the questions you asked, I only just saw and clarified the point where you insisted a 'contract' was issued without due process. That issue has been settled that due process wasn't breached, why do you still insist on it?

ivandragon:
stop dribbling at the mouth with confusion...


you are going round in aimless circles trying to defend what cannot be defended.

when was the NNPC contract presented to the FEC?


when did pmb as president or minister, append his signature to the said contracts?


look, you are free to indulge in your 'circle jerk' defence of your preferred looters.


those of us that want better transparency & accountability will, in our own little ways, continue to put the government on its toes...


you & your likes can continue to reap from the filth of unbridled corruption presently going on...

You do realise the money wasnt for a 'contract' but rather was payment of NNPC's cash call to JV partners right?

You also do realise that the issue of breach of due process has been clarified with a confirmation that it didn't necessarily need to pass the desk of the board chairman?... You do realise the case has long been closed right?

So why exactly do you still dwell on a closed case when you should be focused on a more reasonable debate on the N700m portal?

Leez:
u mean ds guy?

Oh is dat ur dad?... Oh now I get it... lol... only a retarded brain actually assumes a person is yoruba simply because I said there isnt anything wrong with conferring a visiting president with a title. And then he actually begins the moronic igbo vs yoruba slurs with me. Such a child, now I better understand who you are...

[quote author=Leez post=62235799][/quote]I can see ur pops in the pix pooing on your destiny ...

sanpipita:
Look at how Igbo tradition is being bastardized, this is shameful what has Sirleaf contributed to Imo state to deserve such title, can an average Imolite have anything to identify Sirleaf by this title, do they really know what ada di ora mma means? *spits

The thousands of nonentities and scallywags that get those titles on a regular basis, from crooked politicians to dubious businessmen and fraudulent moneybags, are those people more deserving of those titles than a visiting president?... That people have decided to hate Rochas does not mean we must throw away objectivity and just criticise everything for the sake of criticising.

ozimec:
Pls take your fight to the people that's responsible for whatever problem you're having. official sources my foot. They can only decieve gullible ones like you. Take proper account of all the billions that has been allegedly recovered as reported from your so called official sources and see if there's any need for this government to borrow.

Just like I said before, an official source has just given you the actual TOTAL figures, but NO WAY!... You desperately love and prefer the beer parlour unverifiable sources (probably the silly figures from those sources tickle your fancy so much so that you cant just let go of them cos they give you something to whine about).

What exactly are you asking me to take account of again when the figures are already up there for you from the EFCC head?... Your case is a very typical issue worrying many Nigerians; the love for sensational titles and nonsense!

I get my info from the official source, you get yours in bits and pieces from useless sources, yet you stand there and think someone else is gullible?.... Very well! Feel free to keep yapping about how EFCC retrieved $90billion from Diezani and $1trillion from Mama P; who am I to spoil your fun?

[quote author=ozimec post=62216088][/quote]How will you possibly understand anything in this life when you deliberately leave official sources but choose to pick your news from latrine blogs and whatsapp broadcasts?... $90billion!

Bhelamblog:
If your thinking Psquare will return, give up dear, They ain't returning, the brothers just put the Mansion they bought together up for sale,

The Mansion which cost over a billionaire, was one of the most talked about early this year, with Even Dangote present at the Opening.

But there seems to be a complete break out, they were both living in the Mansion with their wives and kids, But they have put it up for sale, so they can go their separate ways. Quite sad..
see below!

News From Ebiwali-- http://www.ebiwalismoment.com/2017/11/psquare-breakup-peter-paul-okoye-put.html

Useless bloggers and their penchant for misinformation. The house Psquare put up for sale is their old house at Ikeja (Square ville) where they lived together before. The 3 brothers recently moved into separate mansions whose pictures were splashed all over social media earlier this year.

@Op, the pictures you put up there are of different houses.

What sort of bizarre story is this?

SHAKABOOM:
My guy whether we participate or not oooh..I don't Kia,all am saying is that osunbande the short lying mere commissioner of a dwarf should resign if his a true pastor.

Well, he wont! You are free to keep calling him names since that obviously makes your life better. Bye!

SHAKABOOM:
My guy if Osinbajo is a man of integrity let him resign from this corrupt, anti christian demonic govt..Simple

If christians dont participate in governance, then we have no right to complain when ruled by the ungodly. There's nothing wrong in Christians participating in governance.

SHAKABOOM:
The shameless short he goat should retire if hiz a true man of God with integrity.. But as an afonja he won't,cos lying is in dia DNA.

Who is the he-goat you refer to?... The last time I checked, 'Omokri' is the word for he-goat in Urhobo and Reno is also a pastor (or claims to be one). Furthemore, almost everything he wrote up there in his article to accuse Osinbajo are imbecillic lies. If you want me to prove that to you, I am prepared to do that so you will know who the true he-goat is.

Orobo2Lekpa:
I suspect Reno omokri is the guy that used the moniker Beaf on Nairaland a while ago

Of course he is.. he left Nairaland the moment he was invited to share the national cake by Jonathan.

ogologoamu:
Again, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has continued his libellous defamation of former President Jonathan with lies unbecoming his position as Vice President and his calling as a pastor.

In his latest misadventure, the vice president spoke yesterday (Monday, 6th of October 2017) in Abuja at the legislative economic summit themed “Legislative Framework for Economic Recovery and Sustainable Development”.

At that event, he accused the Jonathan administration of not building any infrastructure for Nigeria and frittering away the nation’s wealth saying “Of course, we all know that there was very little by the way of investment in infrastructure and capital projects. In fact, in 2015, capital spend was less than 11%. So, there was very little to show for where this money went.”

This is a barefaced lie and it is sad that the Vice President has decided to descend so low.

It is on record that the Jonathan administration is only second to the Yakubu Gowon administration in terms of infrastructure.

The most expensive and valuable project built in Nigeria in the last 20 years is the $1.8 billion Abuja-Kaduna 187 kilometres super-fast railway that enables Nigerians work in Abuja and live in Kaduna.

This project was built and completed by the Jonathan administration. Does the Vice President know this?

Also, former President Jonathan revived the Nigerian Railways in five of the six geo-political zones restoring direct rail service from Lagos to Kano, Port Harcourt to Maiduguri and Makurdi to Gombe.

When Rotimi Amaechi took over as minister of transport in 2015, he said “In fact, I think we have a problem; most people don’t believe that the railway transport is functioning in Nigeria. I didn’t even know, until I started this tour, I never knew that the railway was functioning, it was even from his (MD’s) speech that I learnt that there are some coaches or services that go to Kano or Port Harcourt or elsewhere.”

My question to the Vice President is who built these rail infrastructures that Amaechi was referring to?

Under former President Jonathan, Nigeria for the first time had national radar coverage through the the Total Radio Coverage of Nigeria (TRACON) project completed by the Jonathan administration in 2012. TRACON is the reason Nigeria no longer has frequent air crashes. Can Vice President Osinbajo deny that this was done by the Jonathan government?

Going further, the Jonathan administration completed the $600 million 750 MW Olorunsogo II Power Station in Ifo Local Government Area of Ogun State. Does the Vice President deny this?

The Jonathan government also built the 504 MW simple cycle Gas Alaoji Power station in Aba, Abia State. Is this also a lie?

That administration also built 12 brand new federal universities including the only federal university in President Buhari’s state of Katsina. The Jonathan administration also constructed and completed 165 Almajiri schools all over Northern Nigeria.

Nigerians will recall that the Jonathan administration rebuilt the Benin-Ore portions of the Benin-Lagos road, the Vom-Manchok road, the Kano-Zaria Road bridge in Kano (named after late Emir Ado Bayero) and many more.

These are just a few of the many projects that the Jonathan administration provided for Nigerians.

Now, I urge Nigerians to compare these projects with what has been conceived of, started and completed by the Buhari administration which has only been able to initiate and complete only one project in two and a half years, which is the helipad in Daura.

How can an administration that cannot even provide paracetamol for the Aso Rock clinic despite over N3billion budgeted for it under President Buhari (according to the First Lady) accuse the Jonathan administration that refurbished 10 general hospitals for the masses across Nigeria?

Another lie from the Vice President was when he said Jonathan reduced “external reserves from $45 billion to $28 billion as of May 2015.”

Why would the Vice President continue to lie so childishly?

There was never a time that the external reserve was $45 billion under Jonathan. The reserves were $33-35 billion under Jonathan. The money the Vice President added to make it $45 billion was the Excess Crude Account which Jonathan refused to touch until members of Mr. Osinbajo’s party, the All Progressive Congress, led by the then Governor of Rivers state and chairman of the Nigerian Governors Forum, Rotimi Amaechi, took the Federal Government to court and got the Supreme Court to force the Jonathan administration to share that money with them.

It is very sad that a man of whom we had expected to so much from has reduced himself to a pathetic liar.

But Nigerians would note that the Vice President’s lies intensified with the exposure of the $25 billion contract scam at the NNPC and the Maina scam of which the head of Service revealed that the President was aware contrary to what he told the Nigerian people.

We will continue to pray for Vice President Osinbajo who is obviously unequally yoked and is now mixing light with darkness.

The rate at which Reno Omokri lies to pass his point, even the devil would feel jealous. Reno who calls himself a pastor jumps into the public space to spew falsehood to the admiration of his eagerly waiting jonathanian fans.

I didnt bother reading the whole nonsense, but 2 figures caught my attention instantly;

1. Reno claims the foreign reserves never went beyond $33-35?... What a moronic lie that is! Reno must think every Nigerian is a daft follower like the multitude of people who throw 'likes' at his vomits on facebook... As at 2013, Nigeria's foreign reserves was well over $45billion dollars. Anyone can easily confirm that from the CBN website of from tradingeconomics.com.

Even if the ordinary man on the street isnt aware, a person who occupied Reno's office cannot claim he isn't aware of this; No way! The whole write-up above is just another pot of trash by a political charlattan meant to deceive a public that never reads or tries to confirm info.

Secondly, Reno just claimed the Abuja-Kaduna rail cost $1.8billion. What kind of imbecilic lie is this coming from a person who calls himself a pastor and who's actually even trying to smear the image of another pastor?

The Abuja to Kaduna rail cost about $874million, out of which China provided $500million and Nigeria's FG brought $374 (roughly N60billion). And lest we forget, even Buhari's government had to pay off the Nigerian government's final debt of N17billion in 2016 before the rail could be commissioned. And to add to that, the $500million supplied by China is still being paid for every year by even the cirrent govt as part of debt servicing.

Omokri must really feel all Nigerians are fools to swallow the nonsense lies he throws to his gullible jonathanian sheep on his facebook page.

I never knew Rivers state govt actually sponsored people to go learn Philosophy and co. The original plan for the scholarship scheme was to train doctors and medical staff to man the hipsitals built by the last governor across the state; never knew philosophy students also got scholarships...

teresafaith:
All you devilish possessed foools, trying so...... Hard to demonize the catholic church and its priests will fail woefully

Are you sure you are normal? ... How does the animalistic behaviour of the 'pharisee' in white cassock represent the catholic church?... In your mind now, I'm sure you feel you're 'defending' the church right?

QueenOfNepal:
The only thing that this government will end up doing is taking a snapshot of Amaechi uncompleted monorail and then splash it all over social media through the likes of Cleverly Deomelo and Goke7 then tjpse ones will now start swearing that the project is 89% completed whereas you are standing underneath the destroyed Jibowu bridge

Abii oo... Just the same way some slimy pdp/jonathanian fraudsters took screen shots of computer generated images of roads in Cameroon just before the last general elections and claimed GEJ had built 25,000km of world standard roads including the Lagos-Ibadan, Onitsha-Enugu, PH-Enugu, Benin-Lokoja, PH-Owerri, Elele-Owerri, 2nd Niger Bridge etc.

Lexusgs430:
He made a statement on his social media platform, which is contrary to the provisions of the constitution. And needs to be called in to confirm his true position......

Okay, he gets called in by the police and is asked if he's been involved in homosexual activities against the laws of the land, and he replies, NO!

So what exactly is the case going to be?

Lexusgs430:
Referring back to your original question, you asked for the provisions in the constitution, that I have provided for you.
So stop playing Maradona......

Referring to my original question, being gay isnt a crime according to the constitution; rather, engaging in gay relationship or gay marriage is the crime. Hope you now get the difference?

Lexusgs430:
Have you read same sex prohibition act 2013?

That question should ideally be for you. Did you catch him in any same sex relationship?.. or did you see him engage in same sex marriage?

Lexusgs430:
Why are they not arresting him? Is been GAY now legal?

Arrest him for what crime?... Where in your constitution does it say being gay is a crime?
