If you read the article, you will notice it's Federal Government Overhead spend in the period covered. Bulk of these were spent by Federal Civil Servants and Ministries, not Presidency

The problem is not the reading but the understanding.
Politics / Re: Lai Mohammed: 'N398m For Computers In Budget Of 2016 Is Strange To Me' by ogmaskman: 1:05pm On Feb 11, 2016
I believe this has been happening. The difference this time around is the TSA and other nooze tightening mechanisms introduced by this admin which has made it impossible to draw cash to settle NASS. What I mean is, hitherto, the cabal pay their way thru the NASS and nobody hears about it. It is the same template they use for every successive govt. That this is coming out is an indication of good tidings. It means the executive will look at every item critically. It will no longer be the usual where budget proposals are left for the civil servants alone to draft, submit to budget office, follow up and implement/ share the hidden loot.
The NASS cannot feign ignorance of this. They were able to spot the irregularities because they are familiar with it. We all know they do nothing other than to collect huge salaries and bribes. It is almost impossible that this scam started with this regime.
When @PMB said civil servants are the most currupt, he was actually referring to classical cases like this. The ministers are not entirely insulated from this scam too. Mind you, the civil servants must share some of this loot with the ministers Becos he approves disbursement in most cases.

This is getting interesting grin educating grin and entertaining grin

But i have seen more than 6 version of this controversial historical saga... well people from OYO should come tell us their own account.

lets see if it supports either the Yoruba version or the bini version

The bini version is consistent. The various other version emanated from the Ooni and Alafin camps. Recall they had their own seniority squabbles. For me the bini version makes more sense

Is this right? Publishing people's private details in public? Sahara Reporters are overdoing it really. This is something that should have gone through the proper channels, but is being made public for all and sundry.

The characters in question are public figures. Nothing about them should be hidden Realy. That's what the law says.

Politics / Re: Why We Ignored Card Reader Reports In Election Cases – S’court by ogmaskman: 3:24pm On Feb 07, 2016
yaki84:




bros apc erred in the premise they went to court with.
in akwaibom state apc said there was no election on 11 april 2015.
inec proof its case that there was elections in d state, pdp proof its case that they was election n that they voted.
tribunal annulled election in 18 out of 31 lga in the state.
at appeal apc begged the court to cancel the rmaining 13 lga that there were massive rigging n overvoting n collosal killings in d state, bros how can there be overvoting when thr is no election?
how can thr be rigging when thr was no election?
how can apc have one member in the state house of assembly when thr was no election? it may suffice u to know that elections Into state house of assembly takes place the same day governorship election is held.
so how was dat possible broda?
broda In law it is what u beg that will be given to u, if u take someone to court for stealing 1million naira, the court will do justice to what u appealed for, they wont go extra miles in digging whether the accused also slept with ur wive n kids.
in taraba the apc lady took pdp to tribunal that they won the election considering the fact that the margin was close n thre was violence in one lga which was d deciding local govt area in the state, what dis the tribunal did? I stead of judging based on what the apc candidate prayed for, instead they stepped outside their jurisdiction n gave judgement based on d fact that pdp didnt do primaries n so doing pdp dont have a valid candidate.
but the same case happened In benue whr the pdp guy also requested tne tribunal to award him the certificate being that apc neverdid their primaries n dont hv a valid candidate but that case was thrown out for lacking merit. but in the case of taraba it had merit even when the pettitioner did not include it in her prayers for the court.
broda law is gabbage in gabbage out, u cant seek for banana n get pineapple.

I agree with you bro. Their plea should have been that there was massive irregularities and not to say there was no elections at all. I can't agree less bro. You nailed it.

1. Reconfigure means to rearrange. Do something different from the original design.

2. Reactivate means you turned on what you turned of or restarting what you turned off.

3. Both words have 2 different meanings

4. Reconfigure means total departure from what was there and you can nor do that without redesigning to make perfect fit.


Get some education and read some dictionary book to identify the differences with words instead of displaying gross ignorance on the internet.


You jokers are even yet to tell us why a country fighting terrorists bought used, broken down with zero capacity to fight, to carry and drop bombs and decommissioned planes from a private collector.




Some pple will defend anything. How can any sane person buy equipment not immediately needed in the middle of a war and some pple say GEJ was on point.

klassic:


Good morning, you are not getting my point, lemme explain your murder analogy, it's easy to say one was caught at the scene of a crime having committed the crime thus becomes a suspect right? But the prosecution in law, must go beyond that speculation or fact to establish that it was indeed the suspect that committed the crime and not only did he commit murder, he had motive. The accused had motive and also acted on the motive. And furthermore, he was capable of committing such crime from a reasonable man's perspective. I. E , he had the mental capacity to know or ought to know the consequences of his action. And that it was an Act of revenge, malice and that it was premeditated this is when the defence raises any of the defences available to him in law.
Finally, the prosecution in doing this, must abide by the guidelines enshrined on the Evidence Act, Administration of Criminal Justice Act, amongst others for he fails to so do, he is bound to fail.
Lemme further clarify with a instance. Some men were caught adutrating dangote cement by mixing sand and other substances then rebag and sell as dangote cement.
At trial, the prosecution called a police official who caught them as a witness to testify that it was indeed a fake cement. No expert witness in the act of cement manufacturing was called to testify at trial. The trial court's conviction and the affirmation by the court of Appeal was quashed by the supreme court on the grounds that in law, a police official is not an expert in the act of cement manufacturing and thus cannot give expert evidence on same. Hope u now understand. Thanks

From the supreme court explanation above, the various petitions were bound to fail. Proving beyond readonable doubt without recourse to the card reader was practically impossible. The time between elections and tribunal sitting is too shot to get any meaningful evidence.

I think I'm just being soft on them as regards the use of card reader, but as for violence and non-compliance with guidelines, SC misfired on that.

yeah, it is, but you have something to learn from it. I had to put it all out here cos as much as I hate the judgements , this report changed my thoughts about them.
I don't think if you read this, you have any reason to wait for details that will be released on 12th of this month.


Where's lalasticlala and mynd44 sef? Keneking , help me call them abeg.

But this has nothing to do with the violent part of the elections. Many pple lost their lives and nothing was said about that. Recall the elections petition tribunals of akwa ibom and rivers moved to abj because of violence during the elections. Having explained the reason for discarding the card reader they shuld do same for ignoring the violence and over voting which characterised the elections in some disputed states.

nope...if what she wrote up there is actually true,she just didn't deserve it. she's hurt n frustrated n therefore lashed out. nobody deserves being taken for a ride n being stood up.

As a media person she overreacted. Even if her story was what happened, it still doesn't justify her anger. She has passed a subtle msg to other celebrities to stay off her show. Tgis looks more like a publicity stunt. She may not be as popular as she wants us to believe.

Even if there was a rerun, the outcome would be no different; just a waste of funds that aren't available.

Perhaps, that is why ex-President Jonathan would always be a hero.

My dear the money put into these election petitions from tribunal to supreme court is alarming. My suggestion will be that we strenghthen our electoral processes to avoid after election litigations.

it Is baffling how some pple react to things that ordinarily should be seen as normal. Maybe they expect the presenters to tag along even if the guest was misinforming the public. For me, the presenters were professional. The best place to correct the guest's misrepresentation of the facts was right there in that studio while the guest was still seated.

Too many pained, sentimental and gullibles adults pacing our common space. May God help us.

[i]What is the aim of the University that we cannot achieve in Oron where they have all the necessary infrastructure.


[/quote]

Let me try to address ur second question especially.

The site of the proposed university is not warri as u wrote. It takes about 2hrs on speedboat from warri to Okerenkoko (NMA site). This area is the stronghold of the militants in delta state. With recent happenings, it will amount to an effort in futility to continue with that project at the present location. the militants can wake up anyday and hold students and lecturers hostage or worse, destroy facilities.
I believe Oron can serve the purpose. Recall Delta state university was a college of education befor it was upgraded to a university. Today delsu boast of one of the best medical schools in Nigeria.
In terms of safety and accessibility, Oron is perfect.
