I don't condone stealing and it makes me really angry but, is anger or rage of God? I believe he should have cautioned her instead of beating her up and threatening to upload the video online. What did he hope to achieve by doing that?
As a result, I have these questions for the Priest.
What would Christ have done in this very situation, Mr. Priest or whatever?
Who actually sinned in this very situation? |

yom2: another contract to embezzle funds. When another person comes in he start his own all over again. Africa! And to think this identity card business was supposed to have become a reality since 1976. However, because it'd complicate their election rigging mechanisms, successive governments, except that of OBJ in the early 2000, have made sure it's never fully implemented. We're not even ashamed that Nigeria is the only country in West Africa without a national ID card. If it won't be done at the federal level, why won't a well meaning state governor implement it at state level? |

That's actually a very old notebook. You could try to install Win 10 64 bit on it. Also, just buy some more RAM. The seller might not have been aware of the difference in the amount of RAM available especially if the notebook is running a 32 bit version of Windows.
Could you please check to make sure it's running a 64 bit version of the operating system?

I don't really understand why and how you are unable to disburse funds from your own account. Couldn't you just use a token through online banking or one of their ISSD number to complete the transactions? As least, those are my go to methods.
As far as I'm aware, you're only required to provide your NIN when opening a new account, or an international passport related matter.
To be clear. Were you trying to open a new account, or what exactly are you trying to accomplish?
N.B: I wouldn't blame my bank for asking me to prove I'm the rightful owner of my account. |

Whoever is using my old number is definitely getting bank alerts related to my account because I've been unable to change the number due to the strange requirements demanded by the bank. I did receive an email from the bank a few months ago alerting me that the number is now registered to someone else.
What I'm trying to tell you is that it's not an issue. You can continue to use the SIM since it's registered. There are people living outside the country who do not have the opportunity to visit the bank, or send them the necessary documents to effect the change. |
Politics › Re: Asari Dokubo, Edwin Clark, ND Avengers; Why No Outrage Over Iniquity At NDDC by olmoRoc: 12:55am On Jul 22, 2020 |
Getsaved: OPINION : Fredrick Nwabufo: Asari Dokubo, Edwin Clark, ND Avengers; why no outrage over iniquity at NDDC?
There is no executive or administrative corruption without civil partnerships. What we often see on the surface as corruption in government agencies is deeply tap-rooted — with connectors to social crusaders, polemists, activists and civic groups. Corruption in Nigeria has a long value chain.
The probe of the management of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) over serious allegations of corruption by the national assembly is two peas in a pod. The NDDC is like a cookie jar, those probing and those under probe all have their hands stuck in it.
Last Thursday, Kemebradikumo Pondei, acting managing director of the NDDC, stormed out of a session with the house of representatives panel investigating the agency. He accused Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, chairman of the house committee on NDDC, of complicity in the fraud at the commission. He said the committee chairman cannot sit in judgment on a case in which he is a suspect.
A similar spectacle played out at the senate a few weeks ago. The NDDC management and Godswill Akpabio, minister of Niger Delta affairs, as a coterie, traded recriminations with the senate committee probing the agency for alleged N81.5 billion fraud.
Peter Nwaoboshi, chairman of the senate committee on NDDC, accused Akpabio of commandeering a N300 million fencing contract from the commission. The minister, not to be out-shamed, accused the senator of expropriating a N3.6 billion contract using 11 phony companies.
Do you think anything worth the time of Nigerians – beyond the entertainment value of the live sessions – can fall out of these probes? I do not think so. I have witnessed enough probes by the national assembly over the years — even with all the theatrics and fireworks – to predict how these ones will taper out.
Now, this is the crux of the probes. The probes are essentially about deal-brokering. The audit of the operations of the NDDC from 2001 and 2019 will bring to the fore lots of interred skeletons involving those at the national assembly and those at the composite quarters of national corruption. Though I believe the process of the audit is already tainted, it must go on.
So, it is a convenient tactic to hold the dirt of the interim management of the NDDC supervising the audit in the air for an eventual entente. Really, what is happening now is a crossfire of blackmail and intimidation. It is the threat of mutually assured destruction before the ‘’meeting at the table of kindreds’’. The probes will go the way of other probes.
Nevertheless, the revelations from these probes should be ammunition for all Nigerians and those directly affected by the sleaze at the NDDC; in this case, the people of the Niger Delta. Why is Chief Edwin Clark, the foremost Ijaw leader, taciturn? Why is he not spitting fire like he often does when issues of resource control and marginalisation of the Niger Delta are on the table? Or is the mindboggling thievery allegedly perpetrated by the sons of the region of no consequence because they are natives?
Where is Asari Dokubo, the defender of the Niger Delta, who has been vociferous on all national issues? Is the sleaze at the NDDC not worth raising hell and threatening apocalypse over? Where are the Niger Delta Avengers? Is the NDDC corruption bazaar not a cause to undertake a peaceful citizen action for? Or do the avengers only avenge when it involves a certain Sani, Musa, Taiwo or Nnamdi?
Why is there no outrage in the Niger Delta?
This same silence of the Niger Delta was palpable during the administration of Goodluck Jonathan which was in throes of cosmic allegations of corruption. So, it is clear here that the agitations of the region over the years have a heavy ethnic burden.
Really, we do not hate corruption. We only hate where the corrupt person comes from. Let me rephrase that. Corruption matters to us only when the ethnic background of the accused is in the equation.
The Niger Delta losing its voice at this time of great consequence for the region will always haunt it.
