Which N30 trillion? The one used by Soludo and his attention seeking comrades as campaigns gimmick to package Buhari to power thinking he would offer them cabinet portfolios? This judge needs to be given additional works to do.

pinkyliceous:
Buhari try to move forward, stop living in the past. There's no government which is not corrupt, even yours. Forge ahead and try to generate funds for the country. You claim that Jonathan was bad in all aspects, ok we heard you. Since you are a good man, try to fix up the country. Enough of the blame game or do you want us to call for Amechi and Tinubu's heads too?

That man doesn't have much to offer. This script of daily "loot revelations" is a way of covering his shade. APC knows many Nigerians are gullible and easily pranked.

rusher14:
This must be investigated thoroughly.

I'm beginning to think summoning Jonathan is imminent.

Did Jonathan tell you he's afraid of any summon? What's stopping Buhari or EFCC from inviting him? The ground is vast enough to accommodate anything that dangles from the sky. Nobody can be intimidated. OK?

baby124:
Is something wrong with you? How can any sane person sit down and write this trash. If 40 million dollars is small change to you, why not pay it to us Nigerian's on behalf of Tukur? Besides where do you think Nigeria is expected to find the money to move forward. Is it God that will come down from heaven to give us dollars? People like you are a virus that should be exterminated in this country.

Are you saying Nigeria can't move forward if the so-called loots are not recovered? What a daft reasoning! Did Obasanjo recover funds looted by the military pre-1999 before moving Nigeria forward? Do you know that 18 years after Abacha's demise his loots are yet to be fully recovered? Are you suggesting that successive administrations should have waited for full recovery of Abacha's loot before taking Nigeria to the next level? Common, stop defending a grossly incompetent Buhari's govt. Gosh!

drsteroid:
bro,can u tell us where the money was diverted to,and what will be your reaction when it comes out to be true?

Until the suspects own up to the allegations in any competent court of the land, any Nigerian that passes guilty verdict on them is either naturally wicked or mentally imbalance. A reasonable person would hear from both the accused and the accuser before passing judgement.

Dasuki and others are been intentionally kept incommunicado and frustrated just to prevent them from saying their own side of the story. That's how satanic Buhari's govt is.

For all those who think that GEJ and PDP mean well for this country nawa!

Even if the entire budgets in Jonathan's administration are reportedly "diverted", nothing, I repeat, nothing can take away the fact that the ex president meant well for Nigeria. Wait till 2018 when real campaigns begin and see how corrupt APC and Buhari are.

Gayigaskia:
They don't mean well because they are stopping corruption?

Which corruption are they stopping? The one in your office or community? Can you sincerely say anything is been done by this govt to fight corruption in the Ministries, Departments or the Agencies? What you see now is just a smokescreen to kill PDP and nothing more. Stop been fooled by Buhari's satanic administration.

drsteroid:
Its now obvious Jonah's Govt goes home with the award of the most Fantastically corrupt Govt in the history of Nigeria.Why was the wife shedding crocodile tears when she knew that Chibok Girls abduction was another avenue for them to milk our common patrimony?Sometimes,I wonder how some people support a dubious Govt which bereaved us of our common patrimony.Just imagining using this money for capital projects!Its high time the IB is invited to clear himself of corrupt shady deals during his Govt.

It's a shame that despite your level of exposure, you're too swift to draw conclusion on any rubbish from Sahara reporters and Buhari's EFCC. Did you bother to know where the said $40b was "diverted"? The major suspect in these serial and unending "revelations" is Dasuki who has never been allowed to speak out in defence of the allegations. The daily allegations are meant to coverup Buhari's ineptitude, incompetence and keep the unsuspecting public busy.

Former Governor Sam Egwu moved the motion to bring the convention to a close while the one and only Oshokomole, Fayose seconded. That took place at exactly 7.29pm.

Anyway, the seeming new PDP slogan in addition to Power to the People as echoed at the convention is PDP CHANGE THE "CHANGE"

Members of the Caretaker Committee taking oath of office.

Senator Akpabio moving a motion for the constitution of a Caretaker Committee to pilot the affairs of the party for the next 90 days. Markafi nominated as Chairman, Ben Obi as the Secretary. Other members of the committee as approved by the convention include Aisha Aliyu, Odion, Ayo Adeyeye etc. No member of the CC can stand for election in the next convention.

dimieprincess:
They have so much ego that none can shelve its ambition for the other

That's true. PDP has that issue.

bender79:
Watch APC unite in 2018...then there will be so many tangible things to campaign about

Strange bedfellows don't unite, they only congregate for personal gains.

Former governor of Niger State, Babangida Aliyu moving a motion for the suspension of existing PDP's zoning formula and adopting a new zoning arrangement that gives the party's presidential candidacy to the north in 2019.

Motion adopted.

Motion for the dissolution of National Working Committee moved and adopted. NWC now dissolved.

kcmichael:
Pdp musst scatter by fire by thunder,scaterrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
1. Jerry gana group
2.Ali sherriff group
3.Makafi group

They will scatter even more

APC also has Atiku group, Tinubu group, Saraki group, Hell Rufai group, Senator Sanni group, the Buhari Aso Rock cult. Who should the fire burn first?

dimieprincess:
very confuse set of people, pls they should collapse the party and form another one

Realistically, no new party can give APC stern opposition apart from PDP. What the party needs is restructuring.

ganisucks:
Hasn't it been suspended. Various news sites claim it has been suspended

There's a report of Alimodu Sherrif's disenchantment with the continuation of the convention citing Court order. Another report says while the PDP governors and party executive insisted on electing caretaker committee to stair the affairs of the party, Sherrif wanted an outright election that would pave way for his continued chairmanship. Nonetheless, the convention is going ahead.

jerrydelight:
live on NTA.

AIT has joined the live transmission too.

High2k:
This momodu of a guy, always trying to sit on the fence when writing anything that concerns buhari, i personally see this trait as an act of cowardice on his part..... He does not want to offend his so called friends in buhari government, neither does he want to incure the wrath of some people by openly supporting buhari..... Better to die for something than to live for nothing...

Dele Momodu is the Grand Patron, Association of Buhari's Praise Singers who is trying effortlessly to regain his dwindling public image. Having realised his folly in packaging someone who had lost touch with modern governance to the presidency, Dele is now preparing a soft landing for himself in case everything goes crashing in Buhari's govt. Omojuwa and co must be sulking secretly. Anyway, I admire his courage for still talking. Others have gone numb.

Something strikes my attention from this interview. This man says Kachukwu and the VP's contradictory statements are "embarrassing to Buhari", is he indirectly telling us that our president is like an anchored boat that swerves according to the direction of waives? Does it mean govt officials don't harmonise their views with the president before issuing public statements? More importantly, is Buhari really on top of his game as the defacto president? Are we back to the 1984/85 era when someone was the Head of State while the other was the one ruling and calling the shots? I am just curious.

See gobe! I have said it before; by the time the curtain is finally drawn on these APC Stand-up comedies and blockbusters, all the spectators would be asking for a refund of their money. I'm so sure of that.

jakiedudu:
You just raised a valid point. Power sector privatisation is a good idea but the process done in Nigeria is a huge dose for concern. Most of the power station were sold to incompetent powerful individuals with no expertise whatsoever electricity generation. If this govt renage on reveiwing the privatisation done in the power sector then they on a mission to fail. Current power situation in the country is terrible.

Fashola wouldn't have carelessly increased electricity tariff if he or Buhari had intended to probe that sector. Any review embarked upon after the tariff hike is nothing but stupidity.

7lives:
Na turn by turn, even if na papper weight let him do it, when last did we hear serious corruption drama since TAFA BALOGUN SAGA.

You're right. What's happening now is nothing but "corruption drama". Nigerians are looking for real corruption fight.

By the time the curtain is finally drawn on these APC Stand-Up comedies and blockbusters, all the spectators would be asking for a refund of their money. I'm so sure of that.

The same "fearless" Buhari who doesn't have the liver to probe the exploitations taking place in the power sector(where past heads of state and powerful Nigerians allegedly own the GENCOs and DISCOs) but can only flex muscle on Dasuki, Deziani, FFK, Metu, etc, who are seen as featherweights? Please bring another tale. Fearless indeed.

ojtech8291:
As for me oh... Is not a scam because up till now I'm still enjoying sure-p from Minna to suleja at a cheaper rate compare to other transporters. If you condemned person and the person did the right thing, God will condemned you and that is the final. If the keep looking at gej always, I'm sorry, things will not work for them as it supposed to be. God bless 9ja!!

Thank you for standing by the truth.

RZArecta:
Lagos
Osun
Ogun
Oyo


These are some states who had Sure-P funds allocated to their governors/governments. Tinubu as their political daddy should ask the governors what they did with the state Sure P allocations.

God bless you. May truth continue to be your guide to success and victories over adversaries.

At least I get a credit of smarts in "playing with words"........ You? You argued very unintelligently abinitio...........

1. If your point two is not outright attempt at sophistry, it will be a shame to twist what is already in public domain. Except you have not been following media (which is obvious) you cannot deny the statement below;

https://www.newsbreak.ng/2016/05/nlc-runs-trouble-proposed-strike-action-faction-backs/

I know your comprehension capacity can decide to holiday when it is critically needed, but to twist facts and what you assume I meant, is shallow. Whatever "corruption" in NLC is not my bother, they have internal mechanisms to address that. What I simply put, is the reason for what factionalised NLC, what Waba-faction brought to the table.

2. Unfortunately yo do not let you understand that in negotiations, parties come with both mandates and concessions. Your misunderstanding of why a minimum wage discussion should come in that negotiation simply shows you have a lot to learn. You condemn the FG for proposing to discuss minimum wage, yet conveniently left out the demand (albeit belated and opportunistic) as quoted below



3. So if we got your drift, the FG should only negotiate with Waba faction? That is simply your personal opinion. That opinion I believe is not well thought through........no wonder you're on NL and competent people are running the government. That the FG attended a factions event on Labour day and did not the other translates to nothing. The FG did not make any statement to that effect. What is most unfortunate is your warped reasoning. How will you imagine the FG will give approval (tacit or public) to a faction of Labour when both factions are in court?

Be steadfast in defending the atrocities of Buhari's govt but remember there's a reward for everything. I won't bother to prolong this conversation with you any longer but take it or leave it, this is 1985 scenario playing out and we know how it ended. I rest my case here.

mapet:
1. First off, you are really a wailer and you do not sound like a concerned Nigerian
2. You sound either confused or simply irrational. You could be well be within your perogative to be a wailer and argue your position intelligently and with facts. Your choice of sentiments is a bottom low

That said

It is logical, wise and magnanimous of FG to call both factions into negotiation, for one simple reason, none should be left out. The FG could have chosen to recognise a faction, yet chose not to do so. A reasonable person should have seen the act of the FG has being more pragmatic and nationalistic.

You should try to sound less ridiculous in your arguements. What is the meaning of this statement . This is terribly absurd.....

If you're not lazy, you should research the following, and later come back and tell us what APC/PMB's government did to Labour
1. Have you bothered to ask why Labour is factionalised?
2. Have you bothered to ask what Ayuba faction put on the table that was totally rejected by both FG delegates and Ajaero faction?
3. What Ayuba faction did with the over N2b that GEJ's government gave to labour for the housing estate, which is unaccounted for and the land still empty? (Tip - this is one of the grouse that led to the fractions)

Anybody that sees how lengthy your epistle looks might easily make a mistake of believing you made sense not knowing it's nothing but empty bunkum.

Now, take a faddy look at these;

1. Negotiating with two feuding factions of a Union over a single subject for the purpose of currying their favour is nothing but a shameful act of divisiveness. If talking to the two factions was so imperative as you claimed, why did the same Buhari govt ignore the Ajero faction on Workers' May Day Celebration? Does that ring a bell in your ears? What that simply connotes is that this administration had given tactical approval to Wabba's authentic NLC from inception but decided to court Ajero faction surreptitiously just to cause further divisions in the rank and file of NLC. I insist that's a condemnable act.

2. There's nothing the Wabba's NLC placed before the FG other than complete reversal of the price increase. The govt was trying to be smart by mingling Minimum Wage negotiation with fuel price hike. Talks on minimum wage had gone off before the latest price increase hence, the two are separate and incongruent. It was on the initial price of N86 both factions of the NLC premised their respective agitations for N56,000 and N90,000 MW respectively and not the current price of N145 if you care to know.

3. On the alleged N2b given to Wabba-led NLC by Jonathan's govt, that shouldn't be your headache but Buhari's. Has the EFCC gone moribund not to beam its searchlight on such fraud, if it indeed exists?
To further buttress how contradictory your statements are, you are now suggesting that Buhari is ready to negotiate with a corrupt Wabba-led NLC?

No matter how smartly you play around with words, what's bad is bad. The Nigerian govt is out to cause further divisions in labour just to silence any opposition to its oppressive, elitist, imperial, self-centered and trial-and-error governance. Simple.

tbaba1234:
Only one party was willing to negotiate.The other said 86 or nothing. The government negotiated with the ones willing to discuss.

Ajero faction's stance was not based on principle but an attempt to water down the towering influence of Wabba faction. I think the faction that stood its ground on N86 price retention was more sincere. The rationale for the geometric increase from N86 to N145 to me, negates all logic.

Tokety7:

In otherwords u are saying it would have been better if he wasn't dealing with anyone of them right. Anyway, not only a faction of NLC ignored the strike. TUC, NUPENG, PENGASSAN also ignored.

Everyone knows Wabba-led NLC is the officially recognised one. I repeat, dealing with two factions simultaneously is a height of treachery. It's condemnable and repugnant.
