Hedonistically:
Nigerian law enforcement agencies always rely too much on prima facie evidence and the self-indicting "explanation" or "confession" of suspects. This is laziness of the highest order, and is one of the reasons why corruption cannot be defeated at this time.

Granted, the director is clearly corrupt - as EVERY OTHER civil servant and public office holder in Nigeria is (including the so-called investigators themselves and the High Court Judge handling the case). But that is besides the point.

The investigators have not established a paper trail showing exactly how the director stole public funds and illegally acquired his assets. The charge that he could not "explain or justify" his wealth is absolute nonsense. To begin with he is not obligated by law to explain anything to you. Besides, you are not competent to arbitrarily decide whether his explanation is acceptable or not.

What you should do and must do is to investigate how he corruptly acquired the funds and how he illegally acquired his assets. Which contracts were illegally awarded or inflated? Which kickbacks were paid and how were they paid? Which documents were forged? Which government funds were unremitted? Etc. Etc. That's the hard work in criminal investigation, and you cannot shy away from such hard work! It is daft to just rush to court and say that somebody cannot explain their wealth.

Without this, I'm sorry the case before the court is watery, and the director and his brother will easily be acquitted even with an average lawyer.

Your comment is so on point.

As I was reading I was expecting evidence of the trail of money.

We have so many forensic accountants but its tiring to read all this kind of news.


All those things are imported. How were they paid for, from which accounts, how were the accounts funded. If anyone pays cash for the abuja houses (billions of naira will still leave a trail.)


True this matter is just tiring.....

We have the TSA, there is a limit to a director's expenditure approval. So is it from kickbacks or is he laundering money for someone else

This is a very good article.

Provides specific names and exposes lapses. Kudos to the journalists who wrote this.

Highlights:
NNPC keeps selling to private depot creating a longer value chain that can increase price.

This private depot act unchecked and dispense at prices above ex depot price.

Its obvious that we can get fuel at less than N145 if NNPC delivers at N117.










Why is this not on front-page??

See centuries old artefacts.


Our culture , history is so colourful

She's very pretty.




And I love that black. Just off light and you are gone. Stealth mode activated.

Naija number one all the way.

Wow that's incredible.



Coke suppose pay huge for the free advert. That wooden crate was legend.

Looks more like a US enemy list.

Nigeria that expatriates come to and refuse to go back. Everything is cheap and we are so tolerant.

Where in the world will someone kill and roast a dog for food and his neighbour will not complain. .



On a serious note: The rankings are pure LIES, how do you rank reputation, tolerance etc.

My personal opinion:


I can understand girl gay relationship.
I can understand one person in a man gay relationship.




But that last man that allows his anus to be destroyed day in day out . Hmmm Na wa 4 U.

Revert means goes back to former state.

Convert is a change.

God created man to worship Him only Him. That is man's natural state. He only changes that state by developing other ideologies.



So Muslims we were born submitting and worship only One God. So you revert back to God.

And was the picture that of the actor?

Coup of a frail 90year old man


He was already dead. They just removed his body from the presidential chair. Typical US strategy- catch them nearly by old age and then strike!!!!

Please the AU should take over and ensure free fair elections old and a good power structure is established. All lives matter.

Even in Mugabe's sleep they could have replaced him with somebody else and he wouldn't have known. He was that old.





Even the vice president should not retain power and should hold general elections. AU should support this.

Nigerians are just shouting on Afrima stage.

That is not singing.


All the other countries represented well so it couldn't have been the sound system.....




Nice show all round though.

To think that 6 years after Libyans have not known peace. And the country is in disarray.

But some people will still not learn that most suffer in war. The people who profit at the sellers of weapons.

This story is sweeeet. Please add more and include more pictures.



Heard Ghana has 247 light and no old woman for Ghana.

They had no justification under any religious tenets for doing that. You are not even allowed to insult people back during fasting.

In fact if anyone seeks your trouble you are meant to say I'm fasting and leave that spot.

Such an act would have nullified their fast. And you can't enjoin the fast on a non Muslim (was the man the only one in that area eating?)


Like I said #freethesheeple. If people would stop listening to men and understand the word of God.

aribisala0:
But Fashola insulted Sango
Christians believe Jesus is God so when they say he is just a man is that an insult?

Then you direct your query to Fashola so named above. Muslims should not have to answer for everyone's spoken word or action.


Did he say that in the capacity of representing his religion?

aribisala0:
No Christian will agree with you that Jesus is a prophet and you saying so is actually provocative and disrespectful

but you don't see it that way.

I understand because I am neither Christian nor Muslim though I have read the Quran and Bible and continue to do so.

Anyone who has read both books will know that Muhammad copied lot from the bible and adjusted it for political power

Now that is an opinion which may be offensive to Muslims but CANNOT be a no go area just as challenging the divinity of Jesus CANNOT be a no go area.

That is what this thread is about. There are many who believe Islam, Christianity or indeed all religion is fabricated and they should be allowed to speak without violence

Like Freeze has done I will tell you Jesus is a prophet based on the bible.

"Father forgive them for they know not what they....." Was a prayer from Jesus to God.

"hear o Israel thy Lord God is one God" was what Jesus told the Israel.



"I am not sent but to .... Etc etc""


These are what a Muslim will tell you with no insult intended.


Now see what a Christian will reply when you ask for their proof:

Their prophet is a fornicator, raping small children (very baseless as records of age are not readily available, even Khadijah has a 20 year gap in her estimated age on wiki).

You are terrorist. Do you want to bomb ( bros we asked you a valid question you haven't answered)

Or abusing god who they think belong only to the Muslim because the name is in Arabic.




For me a clear difference between addressing an issue and attacking the person you are conferring with.....


Muslims are not disturbing the witches and wizards or the traditionalists. We know the people who will not let birds rest just because of their fear of the traditionalists.

No other work of antiquity can stand like the Qur'an!!!!



Recited daily. Transcribed into many languages yet the original language is always included. People learn Arabic just to keep the language of its revelation alive.



Arabic one of the oldest languages still existing similar in nature to the language spoken by Jesus (the Aramaic language).

The pic is somehow. That is how hausa's bury their dead.



Can we confirm this news 100%?

If you hear war... You must run.



It's such a wonder how years after killing Ghaddaffi, Libya is still in such disarray.


All lives matter. Stop the war and embrace peace.

Last year it was Igbo man refusing to fast.

Igbo man not fasting

Haba where do this stories come from

zionmde:
That line u will never see a muslim insult Jesus bla bla bla bla is wat u should be telling people who dont truly know u guys. Now let me clear u, d jesus u muslims believe is not our Jesus. U dont insult ur jesus but u insult our Jesus. I have lived amongst muslims for a long time and i have heard unspeakable insults to our Jesus. The Jesus (of Christianity ) has no single relationship with jesus of islam, just as there is nothing in common between us both. So ur mohammed deserves no respect from me because to me the guy is from the devil the same way i dont require u to respect Jesus because the personality should mean nothing to u. Where tolerance comes to play is that i ignore ur insults to my beliefs and u ignore mine.
Can u tell me wat insult the woman who lost her head in kano dished out to mohammed, so even if she insulted him u are telling me she deserves to die and u still use the same mouth to tell me islam is tolerant. gerrrrout

Do u know wat a muslim use to threaten someone's life. this is th exact word "it only take allah ahkbar and u become a story"

Please if u know tolerance is not embedded in ur religion just close ur mouth and stop trying to defend rubbish. I guess chop chop square in saudi arabia is where tolerance is really taught
useless religion

And this is why we need to teach people about the books. Stop following your Alfa or pastor, they are not the law.


A Muslim cannot insult any of the prophets. And only a person of very limited knowledge will be saying our Jesus your Jesus. Some people even go ahead and differentiate our God your God. Some will abuse Allah and say his own his Yahweh.


God has a name in every language. In the bible the name Elah is synonymous with Allah. Technically all you just did is you just insulted .......


We really need to address this Hate that will not let us understand.



How many churches are in the North? Some Christians call God Allah in the North. How have this churches survived? Why was there an incident of conflict

These are the questions you should ask. An incident does not make a whole. A fight at Alaba does not mean Ibos are always troublesome. A fight at Mile12 does not mean hausa are always looking for trouble. You look for the cause of the conflict and address it while not ignoring that they've been coexisting peacefully for decades.

Humanistme:
Muslims do the same. they create anti Christian threads too.



terrorism is A form of psychological manipulation through warfare to the purpose of political or religious gains, by means of deliberately creating a climate of fear amongst the inhabitants of a specific geographical region.

so tell me how what the likes of shekau do is not terrorism. note it is different from a Muslim commites crime because of other reasons apart from religion.










there are Christian terrorists too. mind you the person who carried out the church massacre is not a Christian. he is atheist.



well there is ese oruru case and the latest 25 teenagers discovered in emir palace in Abuja





non Christians criticized pastors too during the debates





ideas can be criticized and that includes your religion. Christians, Catholics get bashed from left to right what makes your religion special?




you can ad well check Christian topics too you will see the same hate




I agree. all ideas including your religious or philosophical ideas are open to criticism.

The trend on nairaland is atheists disrupt Christian threads and Christians disrupt Muslim threads.


Muslims know what the bible say: It's one of the books we believe in....... Muslims would rather challenge your tenets based on what the books say..... (e.g if Jesus prayed to God, how can Jesus be God)


But head on insults and hate speech...... We get that from the Atheists and Christians. ( e.g a man shows of his Muslim family- comments include terrorist, na so them they kill, for night them go de bomb).


I mean...............just help yourself to the many threads that show this sickening comments.






Modified: How did you get to the conclusion the killer was an atheist 26 people killed and no topic appeared. Killer's religion are rarely mentioned when they are Christian.

zionmde:
Are u telling me i can raise an argument in hausaland about mohammed being a prophet or not without looking for my head in a matter of minutes? Tell me more
Tell how much tolerance it is in islam as a whole. Tell me how tolerating it is for islam of the woman that lost her head in Kano.
Islam and tolerance is a no no
Those ones on nairaland are helpless, if they can murder people online i know how many people must have died. So mr islam, tell me how mohammed taught u guys that tolerance looks like

If you have a debate bring it on. We welcome people of sound minds anytime and if u go through my prior posts u will notice I welcome such.


But where you lack arguments and you resort to abuses and name calling That is the no go area. You will never find a Muslim insult the prophets or God. We can't even insult Jesus.



So if you can't respect other people's boundaries in a debate. You will always have issues with the others.

@ OP great points raised.



But you have to consider so many different aspects.

Go to every Islamic topics and see the level of insults and lies been hurled about (by whom And why?).

Why is a crime committed by a Muslim tagged a religious or terrorist act.


While a Christian crime or fight is never labelled. ( latest case of a US church shooting by a Christian- its not even on nairaland)


I keep reading of people been forced to Islam or paid, they say this without proof and yet these are taken as the salient truth. They say Muslims fight without provocation (like the proverbial child who cries that he has been beaten and when asked why he was beaten, replies that he did nothing)



It is ironic how you have a debate on tithes which Muslims are quite conversant about and yet are allowed to have your debate in relative PEACE.



Can muslims be assured of that same relative PEACE when they have their debate or will they have to be on guard on every corner from WHO


I invite you to read comments on Muslim topics here on nairaland and see the level of HATE been directed at them. That will tell you who is not letting who have peace in real life.


I support #freethesheeple for both Christians and Muslims as we both have been ignorant too long of what our books truly say.

His business,



Religion is not about competition o....... Well except for each person's race for heaven.



Please can we increase the Islamic teachings and topics for Friday. It's been very dry lately.
And there are so many things to be learnt.

So much talk little evidence.




If you have proof you have incompetent employees you should leave them because


1. They are many
2. NLC will fight for them.



Anyone who is competent should get the job.

Very funny and creative













But it depends on how e de do you sha

Simple thing....



Court should give him two options:


Pay 80% back or

Life imprisonment with hard labor at kirikiri....




Sure they'll get some money back. No one wants to work for money and let others spend it....

No one knows who she is and her circumstance.



To think you just might be living with or near a killer.

Do you need a degree qualification to identify a right angle triangle?

Stop writing trash

To clarify Femi4,

Don't be too slow to catch my drift.....


Most of these people got the jobs not because there aren't other more qualified people but because its man know man......



It happens everywhere in Nigeria, the recent FCSC etc recruitments are there.


My comment wasn't limited to the Kaduna case.
