I thought they said edo state governor has be working? What about the millions of naira he got from federal government Last month.

It is not possible for 1 person to be at over 6000 towns ,cities, this is why we have dukes in them to take care of them.. So the people most pay their taxes to their dukes to repair them for you.

If anyone deceive you , that he can be in over 6000 places a day.. the person is telling lies..

The country of the kingdom of western Nigeria is different from Nigeria.. So by laws. the dukes of the various town have power to collect taxes to repair their road /schools.

You can not pay taxes to Nigeria.. that why Nigeria have refuse to repair your road... but you people have continue to shout Nigeria.. Your name is the country of the kingdom of western Nigeria. Pay your taxes to your local dukes.. for them to fix your schools.. and road..

Does the efcc need any evidence to probe someone that spent more than N2b to celebrate his 60th
birthday ,does efcc need any evidence to dig into the financial records of lagos state from 1999 to 2007 even for a state that spent N15 to construct 1km of road, does the effc need any effort to probe the ownership of Tvc television , the nation newspaper, oriental hotel, the first nation etc.
Is not the same code of conduct that is probing Saraki for asset declarations is the same code of conduct bureau not with Tinubu's asset declaration in 1999 and 2003.

The same people that accused Goodluck Jonathan government of not fighting corruption have brought gross favoritism, nepotism, partiality into the whole anti corruption fight making it look like a plan to eliminate opposition where as the entrenched corrupt people are busy with their loots.

We have all been following the CCB and Saraki saga. While fair-minded and objective observers have objected to the clear witch-hunt against Saraki, others who are either naive or mischievous or downright hypocritical are focusing on the guilt or otherwise of the accused.

It is true that no one is above the law and that the main issue should be whether the accused is guilty or not. But that is only looking at one angle. Remember that the law presumes your innocence until you are proven guilty.

The REAL issue is the Senate Presidency. If Saraki is subjected to the ignominy of a trial, it is expected that he would either resign or be impeached - which is the ultimate desire and endgame of his detractors. Now, if he is eventually found innocent of charges, you noise makers who claim to be interested in the rule of law would not clamour for his reinstatement as Senate President. You would not clamour for his sullied image to be cleaned. Countless examples abound in Nigeria, but I prefer to cite one particularly pertinent example from overseas which still rankles till date.

Dominic Strauss-Kahn (DSK), one of the best leaders the IMF has ever had (and a frontrunner in the French presidential election at the time) , was subjected to this sort of public trial and ignominy, and was forced to relinquish his headship of the IMF as a result... Only for him to be found innocent afterwards. Was he reinstated as Head of the IMF? No. Is he still a frontrunner for the French presidency? No. Did the public care about that? No. Has his public image been reset to the pre-trial state? No.

This is the issue. Some characters don't want a Saraki as Senate President, hence this ridiculous episode. As long as we agree that he is innocent until proven guilty, then we must understand the resistance to this CCB charade. .

If Saraki will retain the Senate Presidency UNTIL the judicial processes are exhausted, then no problem.

What of tinubu and Amaechi don't you think the EFCC should have started with them

When he met Obama was he part of a Nigerian delegation?

The likes of Buhari need to win a presidential election before they see Obama but not Tony Elumelu

dustmalik:
You saTANiods just keep spewing rubbish everyday. Elumelu was part of the Nigerian team. But there wasn't enough room on the other side of the table, hence why he had to sit on that side.

ABUJA—Cash crunch has hit the National Assembly and forced the Senate to put on hold the public hearing on power probe.

According to a Senator, who did not want his name mentioned, the cash crunch was also largely responsible for crippling oversight activities of the various committees in the Senate and House of Representatives.

The Senate

Making reference to the cash crunch being experienced in the National Assembly, a member of the Senate’s ad hoc committee on power, Senator Mao Ohuabunwa (PDP Abia North), said the much-expected public hearing on power sector cannot hold for now due to non-availability of funds to run it.

It will be recalled that Senate President, Bukola Saraki, had last month announced a 13-man ad hoc committee to carry out a holistic investigation into the management of funds appropriated to the power sector since the Olusegun Obasanjo’s civilian administration.

TolaOluwatosin:

funny enough your wailing ends here,
political class know their ways, yours is to wail, stealing continues!!

watch how this will end!! gullible fool

TolaOluwatosin:
ass lick er, Tinubu will continue to rule your family not Nigeria

chukwudi44:
So in your childish mind, the 82 senators would just abandon Saraki including their PDP members lolz

chukwudi44:
Lol 82 senators (already more than 2/3) passed a vote of confidence on Saraki!! Dont forget that Saraki is also a northerner even if PMB/Osinbanjo are shown the way out,the north would still be in power.

cornoil:
But we should not forget quickly that he spent part of this money massively for APC and to sponsor SAI Buhari to upstage GEJ especially in the Middle-Belt and Sahara or others didn't see anything wrong. The same way Saraki accumulated wealth was the same way every Political Godfather accumulated wealth, let's also pause and think on how Tinubu aquired his trillions of dollars or others. Tinubu didn't inherit wealth like Saraki. Let's leave Saraki alone or we beam search light into every Politically enriched Godfather in this country.

FreeGlobe:
Saraki should man up start impeachment moves against the president

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.

sorry for the lucky lady then. She's one foot in and one foot out. Even sango and amadioha don't have your temper.

Unfortunately,Nigeria does not have the technology to track him down and arrest him. A CCTV footage isn't enough to catch him.

Forwetinnah:
We are watching. ..hope he shuts down or Relocates the mosques too. What is good for Greece should also be perfect for Uganda

Rawani:
Their partners Breakingtimes and theguardianusa blog will soon carry the propaganda and wailers will start quoting 'multiple sources'

Rawani:
It's all about PERSPECTIVE and SEMANTICS.

To the General and field commander, the critical backbone of BH has been defeated (arms drugs and food supplies blockade, seizure of territory, decimation of the enemy fighting force etc.)

To the President who promised to end Boko Haram, his metric for success goes beyond defeating their military capabilities, but includes the complete stoppage of their operations including recruitment, lone wolf attacks, recovery of hostages, dismantling of propaganda machinery etc.

The President is in perfect order as he did not contradict himself.

erunz:
Yar Adua, God bless his soul, stayed in that Aso Rock even with a terminal illness, the Aso rock chapel did not disturb him, this old Daura President is been tormented by prayers of little children. Ok kotinu.
