FG Sacks Top Civil Servants Over Employment Racketeering — Minister by Nobody: 6:17pm On Jan 23, 2016

Some top officials of the Civil Service have been dismissed by the Federal Government for extorting money from 400 applicants and offering them employment illegally. The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, made the disclosure on Saturday in Lagos during a meeting with some selected On-Air-Personalities.

The meeting was part of the minister`s five-day consultations with critical stakeholders in the media industry. Mohammed said that the affected officers were on Grade Level 17 in one of the parastatals in the ministry.

He said that the officers had included the names of the applicants in the Integrated Payroll and Personnel System (IPPIS) before the fraud was discovered.
``The first scandal I met in one of the parastatals when I assumed office was the illegal employment of 400 people.``This scandal started with very senior officers up to level 17 in that department.

``They sent out letters and text messages asking people to apply for jobs for a fee of N400, 000 and they were given letters of employment.``They did not stop there. They invited these people to go and be captured on the IPPIS and they even took cameras to hotels to get them captured. At the end of the day the bubble burst.

``One of the victims told these officials, you cannot take my money and still disengage me. I have a valid letter.’’

``That is how we got to know that there is a dedicated account these people pay to. ``Of course, we dismissed these officials and we even handed them over to the Police`` the minster said.

Mohammed said that the incident showed how faulty the IPPIS was and how it had been compromised by unscrupulous elements. He said that the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari was doing all it could to make the IPPIS tamper-proof and guide it from people who might want to load ghost workers on it.He described On-Air Personalities as ``very important’’ in the media industry and urged them to leverage on their platforms to educate the people on government`s policies.

The minister said the current war against corruption was a war of survival for the nation and urged all Nigerians to give it the necessary support.

Sanity gradually returning to the Nation.

If not for man's wicked heart, why will you scam jobless people while you have a salaried job yourself. Some people are just damn wicked.

I'm shocked that- Abba Moro the Minister that swindled thousands of Nigerian Youths and whose actions led to the death of innocent job-seekers is not facing charges under this administration

Buhari has a lot of work to do in this country. We need total institutional reform

Wailing zombies aka wailers will still defend such senior officers because they are dedicated to promoting corruption. It is their calling.

I think Lai Mohammed made the right call and by prosecuting them will deter other criminally minded civil servants from acting in such a manner.

Is this the govt of an exigent extrication from mephistophelean syllogism

I have a question for you.....and I want your answer?

What would you have done differently if you were in charge of Nigeria?

How would you have created jobs in a monoeconomy like Nigeria....when the price of your chief commodity oilis dropping...making it difficult to create jobs, and making it difficult forother sectors of the economy.

Me....I even want Buhari to remove subsides, and sack excess workers.....and spend more on power and transport....so that within two years we can have new jobs due to increased productivity. That is my solution.....what is yours?

Yes...the last admin created jobs. They also had the benefit of high oil prices which meant they had the revenue to create jobs.Once the oil prices fell....the financial basis for jobs also fell. If GEJ was in charge now....would you be saying what you just said?

Better face it.Nigeria is a poor naiton, austerity is our only solution(and yes....APC better face that fact), and the era of free money is over. Time we got to work. White collar mentality is why we are here today.

Criticism is good but you have to back it up with facts and or figures

If you dont have any alternative version of a particular claim, it is illiterate to dispute it on the basis of a hunch.

Do you have any evidence that Lai Mohammed is lying?

Dollarization Of The APC Primaries: How Amaehi Vanquished Atiku #saibuhari

The blogosphere was inundated with reports of the excessive sharing of dollars at the All Progressives Congress which took place during the latter part of last week.

One APC supporter and Special Adviser to Osun Governor on Environment, BolaIlori had blown the scandal open after he saw the beginning stages of the dollarization in action.

He took to his Facebook page and scribbled, “Crazy things are happening here!!! Some of these cannot represent the change Nigeria is yearning for. Excessive dollarization by one of the aspirants to is to say the least obscene. I have been involved in political process for decades now, I have never witnessed this volume of raw dollarization of party primaries. I only read about this kind of things in PDP primaries. A question been asked by conscientious delegates is that whoever can be giving out between $2000 to $5000 to…delegates certainly does not represent the kind of change Nigerians want…those who contributed to the pauperization of Nigeria now revel in dollarization… majority of Ondo delegates are still standing with Buhari but have been reduced from 85% to 70% within 24 hours…the remaining has gone with dollars ooo.!!!!!”

One has to wonder how Buhari was able to win the primaries in this era of stomach infrastructure where dollars are like the Biblical manna that God sent down from heaven to nourish the Israelites as they made their way to the promised land.

Sources close to the APC with knowledge of the way the Primaries unfolded have revealed that it was Rivers State Governor, Amaechi who flew back to Rivers State and returned to Lagos on Thursday morning with enough dollars to make Benjamin Franklin blush.

It has been revealed that Atiku offered the delegates $5000 each, but Amaechi doubled it to $10000 a pop. Thus turning the tables in favour of General Buhari.

Since his adventure into the APC, Amaechi has gone out of his way to prove himself a party loyalist, always the first to shoki or azonto at the many events the APC holds, which he himself is usually the chief sponsor.

According to party insiders, Amaechi has overtaken Tinubu as the major financier of the party. One does not need to wonder why he is always at President Jonathan’s throat over misappropriated oil wells or other such business. Anything that diminishes from the State’s coffers will have a ripple effect on his funding budget for the APC.
