My dear, you know song! I'm getting ready is a great song to launch into 2018. Surprisingly I LOVE the song. So prophetic!

BTW, Nicki did well with the lyrics of the rap

Yeah. When I first heard of the collabo, I shook my head. How can? Then I listened and I was blessed.

NNAMDIII:
You can just dm her on IG to confirm if the said "folake.migeh" is an impersonator

I contacted her. She is not Folakemigeh.

ChristJesus:
call me whatsover you like. It's your opinion.

She is actually innocent in some of her comments. She used to lie also.

What I know is, she can not fool everybody at same time.
I made my full research before picking her up.

She should just remove that DP and go and sin no more

I would like to see what u found out.

P.S. I almost thought Jesus Christ was speaking to me. Maybe u should also consider changing ur moniker.

Total Projects: 14, North only: 7, North and others: 7

Northern States alone: $1bn, North and others: $2.9bn

Contrary to President Muhammadu Buhari’s claim on Friday that his discussion with the President of the World Bank Group, Jim Yong Kim, was twisted, a huge chunk of the financial institution-backed projects in partnership with the Federal Government is based in the North, SUNDAY PUNCH can report.

The President has always been accused by his critics of favouring the northern part of the country, citing lopsidedness in various appointments made by his administration.

The latest criticism took place when Kim, divulged that Buhari had asked the bank to concentrate on northern Nigeria.

The Presidency, however, said what the President asked for was “rebuilding of the beleaguered North-East.”

But critics argued that the explanation was not tenable because Buhari was not a president of the North or North-East alone and should be canvassing for development of all parts of Nigeria, equally affected by different types of disasters.

SUNDAY PUNCH’s findings on Saturday on the World Bank website, projects.worldbank.org, showed that out of the 14 World Bank-sponsored projects in the country, seven are exclusively for the North, while six others are meant for the whole nation (South-West, South-South, South-East, North-West, North-East, North Central and North West); and the remaining one is for Lagos State. Titled ‘Projects and Operations’, these projects were listed under June 2015 – June 2017 projects.

The implication is that in addition to solely getting the lion’s share of the projects, the North also shared in the remaining 50 per cent with the South-West, South-East and South-South.

The projects exclusive to the northern region worth $1bn are: Multi-Sectoral Crisis Recovery Project for North-eastern Nigeria ($200m; Borno, Yobe and Adamawa); State Education Program Investment Project ($100m; North-East states); Community and Social Development Project ($75m; Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, Taraba, Bauchi, and Gombe); Youth Employment and Social Support Project ($100m; Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, Taraba, Bauchi, and Gombe States); Additional Financing Nigeria State Health Investment Project ($125m; Bauchi, Borno, Gombe, Taraba and Yobe) and the Third National Fadama Development Project ($50m; selected area in the North-East). The seventh northern project worth $350m is for the Kaduna State Economic Transformation Program-for-Results Project $350m. The KSETPRP, which was approved in June 2017, is expected to close on March 31, 2021.

Projects worth $2.9bn were earmarked for the nation which northern states are also expected to benefit from. They are: Better Education Service Delivery for All ($611m); Mineral Sector Support for Economic Diversification Project ($150m); NEITI Reporting Compliance ($0.32m); the Polio Eradication Support Project ($125m); National Social Safety Nets Project ($1.8b); and $200m-Agro-Processing, Agricultural Productivity Enhancement and Livelihood Improvement Support Project specifically designed for Kano, Kaduna, Lagos, Cross River, Kogi, Enugu and three other states.

There was also the Third Lagos State Development Policy Operation ($200m), a stand-alone project which was approved on June 26, 2015 and ended on December 31, 2016.

The World Bank documents did not contain any programme or project specifically designed for the South-East, South-South and the Middle Belt regions since Buhari got into power.

A document containing the details of the project on the bank’s website explained the purpose of the Kaduna project thus: “The development objective of Kaduna State Economic Transformation Programme-for-Results Project for Nigeria is to improve the business enabling environment and strengthen fiscal management and accountability in Kaduna State. This operation is fully aligned with the World Bank. Group’s Country Partnership Strategy for the Federal Republic of Nigeria for FY14–FY17. This Programme-for-Results focuses on increasing the number of jobs in the modern private sector and boosting the productivity of traditional economic sectors. Another important and complementary focus of the PforR is to support Kaduna State to increase its fiscal space and enhance expenditure effectiveness to boost investments in human capital and physical assets sustainably.”

According to the bank’s documents, the $200m-MSCRP, meant for only North-East states, is to “support the government of Nigeria towards rehabilitating and improving critical service delivery infrastructure, improve the livelihood opportunities of conflict and displacement-affected communities, and strengthen social cohesion in the North-East states of Borno, Yobe and Adamawa; and in the event of an eligible crisis or emergency, to provide immediate and effective response to the said eligible crisis or emergency.”

Similarly, the SEPIV’s objective is to finance activities to support the Federal Government’s emergency programme for the North-East to address teachers’ needs in conflict-and-displacement-affected areas; strengthen school-level management and accountability for the improvement of education quality through school grants funding; “and to enhance technical assistance to address the needs of the North-East.”

For the CSDP, the World Bank will finance the costs associated with scaling up project activities in Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, Taraba, Bauchi, and Gombe states to support the provision of basic social and natural resource management infrastructure and services to returnees and host communities with the main goal of assisting their resettlement, recovery, and welfare.

The fund, the document said, would also be “used to provide trauma and psychosocial support to returnee households and internally displaced groups and individuals, as a form of social assistance intervention.”

Shedding light on why half of the projects were exclusively allocated to the North and no special projects for the other regions, the World Bank boss at a press conference in Washington DC, United States, on Thursday, had disclosed that the bank focused more on the region based on Buhari’s request.

“You know, in my very first meeting with President Buhari, he said specifically that he would like us to shift our focus to the northern region of Nigeria and we’ve done that. Now, it has been very difficult. The work there has been very difficult...

Ele e gidi gon. People get time sha: Awon Monitoring Spirits ati Internet Police . Just checked the said profile OnlyGod (@iampcandy) (whose real name is Isiwele Peace Onoisetale) and saw some of the pictures uploaded by Folakemigeh. So either Folakemigeh is Isiwele Peace Onoisetale or she is Jubrin from Sudan cos something's not adding up. It would be sad if the latter were true. I really do like her online persona - funny and open. She seemed legit. I would love to see how this drama unfolds.

folakemigeh:

Thats crap and totally bad

One of the realest persons on this platform. No sugar-coating; says it as it is.

felixomor:
Our problem in every World Cup remains scoring and defending set pieces.
If we start scoring scoring from free kicks and corner kicks, it will be very hard to beat us.

I discovered that we rarely vary our style of taking set pieces. We keeping do the same time when it's obvious is not working. We need have variety and surprise opponents.

Cool. That Gee is the real OG

Spot on!

Tosinex:
Really, I don't even know any of his Songs.. When it comes to gospel music in Nigeria I can only remember Frank, Sinach, Steve, Nathaniel and then others.

Quite Surprised. He has a number of popular songs: agidigba, Gbemisoke, Na you be God, Akpoaza and so on

What a pleasant Surprise. Attended the same secondary school...it's a small world indeed. Big-ups to you, Sandra.

AloyalNigerian:
I'm presently on 4.25 after dropping from 4.57 to 4.28 and then to 4.25. I relented due to some issues. Because, I had several options before me so I started losing interest in my course.

Now, my question is, can I still make a first class degree having spent 3 semesters out of 10.

It's mathematically possible. You'll need to get an average of 4.7 for the next 7 semesters.

Are u this beautiful or am I drunk?

phintohlar:
Should a husband tell his wife thank you after meal?

Maybe the question should be why shouldn't a husband express gratitude after a meal. We should never get to the point where we take each other for granted. We must recognise that everyone has a will and can choose to or not to .These 'little things'(please, sorry, thanks/compliments) matter and serve as lubricants in any relationship.

Osetigo - Operation Trump Dance!

The flight came after days of increasingly bellicose rhetoric between US President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un’s regime, as international alarm mounts over Pyongyang’s nuclear ambitions.

US bombers have carried out similar show of force flights as the United States and the international community struggle to rein in North Korea’s weapons programs.

But this was the furthest north of the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) any US fighter or bomber aircraft has flown off North Korea’s coast in this century, Pentagon spokeswoman Dana White said.

“This mission is a demonstration of US resolve and a clear message that the President has many military options to defeat any threat,” White said.

“We are prepared to use the full range of military capabilities to defend the US homeland and our allies.”

The Air Force B-1B Lancer bombers used Saturday are based in Guam, and were accompanied by F-15C Eagle fighter escorts from Okinawa, Japan, White said.

A shallow 3.5-magnitude earthquake that hit North Korea near its nuclear test site Saturday was likely an aftershock from the hermit state’s latest nuclear test on September 3, a nuclear test ban watchdog and other experts said.

The bomber flight and quake came at the end of a week that saw a blistering war of words between Kim and Trump, with the US leader using his maiden speech at the United Nations General Assembly to warn that Washington would “totally destroy” the North if America or its allies were threatened.

The North, which says it needs nuclear weapons to protect itself against the threat of a US invasion, responded on Friday with a rare personal rebuke from Kim, who called Trump “mentally deranged” and threatened the “highest level of hard-line countermeasure in history.”
