Wailers are wailing,
Looters are cry ing,
Magu is not listening
And ordinary Nigerians are laughing.

What have you buried?
How much have you carried,
At the deep of night,
Into your backyard and out of sight?

Who did you hire?
With whom did you conspire,
To squirrel away your loot?
This, is the moment of truth.

Why are you scared?
What have you just heard?
The sound of a whistle?
That pierces your heart like the bullet from a pistol

Who could it be,
That ratted to the EFCC?
Those Buhari bulldogs.
Tenacious anti-corruption thugs.

Could it be the Mai-guard?
The vendor selling Vanguard,
The housemaid?
Now you wish she were better paid!

The office clerk?
Whom you denied an annual perk.
The wife?
No! she's the love of your life,
Well she was, until you took a second wife.

You cower,
You shiver,
You reach for the phone,
Alas, your saviour in Aso Rock is long gone.

You pull strings,
You run around in rings.
Why aren't these EFCC boys listening?
Is this not Nigeria? This cannot be happening?

Dollars, pounds, Euros,
Being carted out in wheel barrows.
You hang your head in sorrow.
Maybe it's a nightmare and you will wake up tomorrow.

What's with this change?
It's so un-Nigerian, so strange.
You want a return to the carnage,
Of unremitting looting and of brigandade.

You console yourself,
As you reach for the drink on the shelf.
You know your people.
They are nothing if not fickle.

After Buhari,
They will not tarry
To return to the days of Yore,
Kickbacks and scamming galore.

That , you say,
Is the Nigerian way.
Corruption is here to stay.
Let Buhari and Magu have their day!

What's the big deal about an oil trading company buying a tanker?

It is BIG DEAL when you use the money that was meant to to develop a nation and her people for personal gains.

SaharaReporters has exclusively obtained shipping and merchant vessel documents which show that the disparaged former Minister of Aviation Stella Oduah purchased and registered an oil tanker a few months before she was sacked by former President Goodluck Jonathan.

It will be recalled that Mrs. Oduah, now the Senator from Anambra State, was sacked by Mr. Jonathan in February 2014 following a series of exposes from SaharaReporters connecting her to a massive BMW vehicle scandal. In recent days, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) discovered that N2.5 billion was put in a bank account under the name of Mrs. Oduah’s housemaid.

The EFCC said “Senator Oduah apparently opened the account with her housemaid’s name, image, and details without the housemaid knowing about it.”

This latest scandal, which involves the unexplainable purchase of a massive oil tanker, is connected to Mrs. Oduah’s company Sea Petroleum and Gas Company Ltd. This company purchased the vessel SEA STERLING, with call sign 5NXF, and later registered it in the Port of Lagos.

According to the Certificate of Classification, by the International Classification Society, the SEA STERLING was certified and entered in to the Bureau Veritas Register Book as having unrestricted navigation.

The vessel, also listed as an Oil tanker on the classification document, was stated as being owed by Sea Petroleum and Gas Company Ltd with a Nigerian flag. It was given the registration number 14565J and valid until May 23rd 2017.

The certificate was issued on August 26th, 2013 at Lagos and later obtained compliance and insurance accreditation in September 2013.

Mrs. Oduah’s oil tanker, affixed with the International Maritime Organization (IMO) number 9607318, is said to be able to freight 4,126 gross tons. SaharaReporters found that on August 26th 2014 the Sea Sterling was attacked by pirates off the coast of Bayelsa State but were repelled by security onboard.

A SaharaReporters investigation into the vessel found that it was built in 2012 and is 112 meters long.

One maritime expert, who SaharaReporters provided the specifications of Mrs. Oduah’s oil tanker to, told our correspondent that “a 6,000 dwt [dead weight] product tanker built in 2009 was recently sold for $12.2 million. So a similar sized tanker built in 2012 [like Stella Oduah’s] would probably be valued between $13 and $15 million.”

He added that, “this assumes a willing buyer and a willing seller and also depends on the vessels’ condition and the shipyard it was built.”

Mrs. Oduah was not immediately available for comment on how her company was able to afford this oil tanker.

Special price for special people .

subtle009:
Nonsense, out of all the things to be same with other countries. Not the positives, but negatives. So because Qatar ND Saudi Arabia is doing somtin den we can shine teeth about us doing it too whether positive or negative.

Its not about what others are doing.

We are talking about a general problem affecting OPEC countries.

Do you need more lectures on that?

Banking Sector and Judiciary sector are fantastically corrupt.

I appreciate dear mama.

Dear Mama,

I understand its not eazy for a woman to raise 3 big boys, a poor single mother teaching in elementary there's no way I can pay you back but the plan is to show you that I understand.

Through the drama i can always depend on my mama when it seems that I'm hopeless she say the words that can get me back in focus when I was sick as a little kid to keep me happy there's no limit to the things she did and all my childhood memories are full of all the sweet things you did for me and even though I act crazy i thank the Lord that you made me there are no words that can express how I feel you never kept a secret, always stayed real.

I appreciate, how you raised me and all the extra love that you gave me i wish I could take the pain away if you can make it through the night there's a brighter day everything will be alright if you hold on it's a struggle everyday, gotta roll on there's no way I can pay you back but my plan is to show you that I understand.

I Appreciate You Mama ( I Love You )

Happy Mothers Day

I am trying to understand but i get more confused.

kilode100:
The man is a Lazy Bastard!!

He should provide for his wife so that his wife can stop stealing...
I'd rather you call it tapping as stealing is too strong a word biko..

I kilode100, do tap money from guys pocket and I don't see it as stealing...

One day they will put tire on your neck and no one will cry.

You must be part of those idiot that says stealing is not corruption.

See how poverty has changed human to animal.

Mindfulness:

Never give up your life for a boyfriend unless you have nothing to lose.

Unforunately the word called LOVE will always overshadow the perfect sence of reasoning.

This is how they got St Kitts passports:
http://www.naijiant.com/beer-parlour-gist/the-pdp-community-is-growing-in-st-kitts/

Your research is helpful.

Saint Kitts and Nevis, the two Caribbean islands that form the Federation of Saint Kitts and Nevis have an “economic citizenship program” that makes their passports available for anyone with $350,000 to spare.

Several Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) major players have snapped up this opportunity, in preparation for fleeing Nigeria if President Buhahari decides to prosecute them for looting the public purse.

They include the ex governor of Akwa Ibom State Godswill Akpabio, who are now citizens of Saint Kitts and Nevis and have bought properties in the sun-kissed islands.

Akpabio described his time as a governor as an “uncommon transformation” of his state, while PDP propaganda claimed there was a “Transformation Agenda” when they were in power. It now looks like we are seeing an agenda of uncommon transformation from Nigerian citizenship to Saint Kitts and Nevis nationality.
