PoliticsRe: Buhari: We Will Fund Budget With N512bn Recovered Loot.. by pol23: 10:14am On Nov 08, 2017
During the last Obama foundation summit, President Obama said his antecedents shouldn't warrant him being a president, but most of it went undocumented because he's just a young guy without a public office.
Buhari was once a head of state and history has the details his ruling then,how He was just a figure on seat and his Vice Tunde Idiagbon was the active ruler.
He was overthrown when Idiagbon was not in the country, meaning He's totally inactive. His prepartor had to wait for the real Boss to travel to attack the figure head Boss.
Despite the history Nigerians still act like they're given him a trial.

I'm just here asking myself some questions.

2: I heard they want to borrow money to finance it, Do they later get the loan?
3:Will The unpaid salaries and pension for 2017 be roll over to 2018?
4:How much balance do we get from the Aso Rock health centre,since they're without drugs and the president preferred treatment abroad?
5:Will there be any allocation for Aso rock health centre in 2018?
6;How much will be allocated to the presidency for presidential Jet fuel and Hangar abroad?
7:Since Inec just wake up someday and decide to register inmate for 2019 election without seeking senate approval, Will there be a increase in INEC allocation for the provision of materials and logistics for inmate registration?
8:What happens to the relief Nigeria gave to Sierra Leone ,Where was the money gotten from? Will there be a provision to replace the money to wherever it's gotten should emergency arise.

What do I know sef...just wondering why draw budget when you won't actualize it.
TravelThe Only Day I Board Train In Nigeria by pol23(op): 4:33pm On Sep 22, 2017
The only time I tried travelling via train in Nigeria..it's a total waste of time...I was going to Minna...there was no flight connecting Minna from Lagos..I decided to give train a trial instead of flying to Abuja and going to take Bus again...when distance from Abj Airport to the metropolis sef na like 1 hour.... na so I go ask for detail 3 days before then, I was told the train leave by 7:00 am and with first class...I was at there Terminus in Iddo (Ebute meta) around 6:00am... I can see a lot of people. Most of which are Hausa and Fulani's with dirty and gabbages they call laugage... non of the staff was within sight... Where I was sitting I ask a man if the train already left..He said no... say na like 10:00am e go be if it ll work....I was like what do you mean if it ll work...He further explain that there re times the train won't work as Planned... I was like how about today...He said let's hope...na there I Don dey know say I Don feel uncomfortable... no info desk... okay...where will I buy the ticket...He said na when dem sure say the train go travel before them begin dey sell Ticket... I was left wondering what's happening in their dirty lobby with those hausa''s making heavy noise and sitting even on the floor... I stayed cos someone told those hausa''s no go dey the same couch with us... say the Hausa's no dey buy the first-class ticket.... Okay... after hours of wondering why Arsenal haven't lift the EPL trophy since I start supporting the club ...I suddenly hear a loud bell ( gbongaun gbongaun)..people started rushing..I was like na trumpet go sound for rapture no be bell na...Whalai that bells is the ticket selling alert... they start pushing dem self to buy ticket... I begged one middle aged man say I make He help me buy..cos those people are fucking stinking...the time was around 11:00 AM oo... since 6... na him dem say the train no get first class say the generator no work.... wetin man go do.... I decided to buy the regular ticket at least na to reach Minna be the goal...but unfortunately the regular couch is as messed up as dumping ground.... I can't breath in there.... na so I carry my bag they go back home ooo...reach house like 2:00 pm...
The questions are:
Why won't a whole Nigeria Railway cooperation has a functional help desk?
No functional contact... the only option to contact them is to go to their office.
Since my last encounter with them in 2015, I've been thinking about giving them one more trial...
But I have to confirm first so as not to face a similar problem...I've searched for their contact all over and I discovered to contact them , you ll go to their office...
Government spent billions on this cooperation and to set up a 3 man customer care so hard.

The Bank can borrow you up to 150k without going to bank to fill any form or any plead..
If you wat to shop on Amazon and other big online store try Mall for Africa.

Traveling with Diamond Bank exclusive credit card gives you A class treatment ....
Free Logistics to help with your luggage at the airport... you be walking like a boss.
Bussiness class lounges free access...
I tasted the benefit once.... till today I still dey try make money make I come go open exclusive account with them....

CrimeRe: #my-story = How Woman Was Arrested After Taking A Missing Child To Police by pol23(op):
pol23:
A banker has taken a swipe at the Nigeria police force while narrating how his church member was arrested after discovering a wandering child in Ifako area of Lagos who later went missing two weeks after. The child who was found - was taken to a church by the good Samaritan identified as sister Happiness before being taken to the police station the same day.
Read the full report as shared by Akinmade Boluwaji on Facebook
THE POLICE IS NOT OUR FRIEND......
A true life experience in the last 24 hours
My phone rang at 3:15 pm yesterday Saturday August 19, 2017 and it was the Pastor of our church Pastor Tope Akimbola calling me sounding down( I knew there was trouble) that one of the member of our church RCCG Glory Worship Center was locked up at IFako Police station on the charges that she found a child and the long story was while Sister Happiness was going to work on July 20, 2017 she found a child wondering by the canal in Ifako who was apparently lost and could not find her way.
The child is about 4 years old and as a good Samaritan she brought the child to church. The members and the Pastor was informed and the child was taken to Alakara Police station .
It is interesting to note that Alakara Police station has facility for children and juvenile correction center. Our church members including sister Happiness wrote statements. Our church in the past has always supported Alakara Police station and once they heard the name of the church they were very helpful.
Later on like about 2 weeks Sister Happiness in the same IFako residence heard that a child was missing and told the neighbors that she found a child two weeks ago and they should check Alakara Police station.
Long story cut short the police arrested Sister Happiness yesterday that she must know about the missing child and that she was involved and why did she not come to IFako police station in the first place. She was immediately locked up at the cell of IFako Police station since yesterday morning. Now why will citizens want to help their neighbors or the Police.
This morning our Pastor grabbed me at 7:45am in company of his Assistant Pastor Bayo Ajayi and we started working up our phones. Eventually I got to speak with the DPO of IFako Police station. That was the drama of my life.
He said why did she go to Alakara Police station and not IFako Police station? I explained to him that not everyone has education to know that the nearest police station was were to report a matter and that he will be shocked that people are scared of police and pure ignorance.
He even went micro by telling me that Sister Happiness should have shouted that.....the people around can intervene. I was disturbed that SP Smith a senior officer in the police force can think like this.
I appealed for at least 45 minutes on the phone and I even offered to see him immediately he said he is not at work and she will be charged to court on Monday and that was his final position.
At this point I started racking my brain on who can help intervene in this simple matter? I tried getting the phone no of Mr Fatai Owoseni the Lagos State Commissioner of Police but no luck.
I finally got an old friend who I had to wake up Assistant Commissioner Of Police , Kola Okunlola .Thanks to technology I had to do a three way call.
I finally connected my ACP friend with DPO IFako .Now my worry must we know someone to get things going in Nigeria ?
So we started the conversation and I was shocked of the spice added by the DPO. He had full facts of the story .The ACP asked him five salient questions
1. Was he aware that Sister Happiness reported the matter to Alakara Police station he answered in affirmative
2. Did Sister Happiness take the child away or reported same day? He said same day
3. Do you know that this will discourage good people to help others in the future .......He agreed
4. What did he do to the parents that were careless by not taking care of their child? He said he arrested and released them immediately.
5. On the board at the police station where you state the person in the cell and the offence what did you state as the offence of Sister Happiness? He said Misconduct. At this point I just gave up and said under my breath that police is not just our friend.
The ACP adviced him to release Sister Happiness and get a reliable surety that will produce her anytime that she is required for investigation. That charging her was a waste of government resources.
Now the DPO IFako has requested that we all report at 8am tomorrow.
My question and worry ......what is Misconduct for a good Samaritan that saved the life of a vulnerable child?
The child was not kidnapped or kept away.
I am appealing to anyone that has contact with the Lagos Police Commissioner to help circulate this ....
I hope we will not discourage other good Samaritan s being their brothers keeper.

Reading on nairaland front page "How Woman Was Arrested After Taking A Missing Child To Police Station In Lagos". #My experience 

This post is just to fuel our Humanitarian service without minding what our law enforcement agency has turned our community into, We should think about the recipient and our world 'll be a better place again.
 Many years ago,I was approx 4 years old,I should be in pry 1 or kindergarten  (not sure) .
I step out of my classroom and I couldn't find my brothers nor our driver where He always park. I was so young to start lesson,I wasn't told my 2 elder brothers 'll be starting after school lesson that faithful day and the driver has being informed not to pick us up till after lesson.
  I assumed within me that they've left me, being a hard kid,I assumed I 'll find my way home and that I know the route.It's like a 15 km from Bodija international school Ibadan to Akobo (anybody that knows Ibadan so well).It's not even a straight road. Well being a kid you assume you can do all things like flying a Jet or space shuttle. 
  I embarked on my journey home,after an hour of walking or more (I wasn't tired) by this time I was already at Secretariat junction ,A woman who recognize my uniform and the distance I've walked approached me and inquires .
Woman : hello
Me : look back and started running.
( She chased and got me)

Woman: where 're you going?

Me : Home.
Woman: where do you live? 
Me :Akobo
Woman: Where 're you coming from?
Me :School
She shouted ( now she got me nervous and worried with her drama)
Secretariat police station was just adjacent us,She dragged me there,I was biting her hand real bad.
I don't get to get to remember what her convo was like with the officers.
Na so them sat me down,bought me Coca-Cola and okin biscuit  ( Short cake).
I gave them my Dad's phone number (till now I still wonder how I get to memorize that number correctly ).
Dad came and my big brother was begging for biscuit.
The rest na story.
If not for that woman anything might happens that very day.
I'm the recipient of that woman's kindness, my Family 're also a beneficiary of that good woman act. ...

with her simple act she saved a family from mourning. ..
I pray goodness and mercy shall meet the woman today and the rest of her life.
That was 25 years ago and it seems just like yesterday in my memory...

We all owe Humanity. 

pls ignore grammatical or typographical errors.
Thanks.
