Bros, Please advise your friend not to make a hasty decision; a lot of our friends in civil service that have been in prolong argument/negotiation with govt. to pay meagre minimum wage of 18k are also family men with children to cater for. so pls think twice. " a bird in hand is worth thousand on the tree" pls read up all the useful comments/advise on this thread, and you will find enough reasons to convince your friend not to leave his job. shikena!

we have modified that phrase to "a bird in the hand is the only bird" lol

This is a great decision, the LASU SPTS has been a huge fruad and rip off on helpless students with some of them speding 8 yrs , so many missing results, and all kinds of frustrations all with illussions of getting eduaction they missed while working.

I think Unilag DLI is a better system.

the issue is how the banks will cover running costs? the idea is not bad anyway.

the bank will charge administrative fees, would also share from profit or loss from business done with borrowed money. Main difference is that no fixed interest rate as done by present banks who charges fixed amount regardless of what happens to the business engaged with borrowed fund.

Anyway,  to all those in support of the humiliating public show, even a good leader can be treated the same way if the practice is encouraged. Patricia Lumumba was killed and dissolved in acid by US backed Mobutu Seseseko.

I am not in supprot of corruption, but playing to the gallery is not justice. Africa has not respect for human lives, both leaders and followers.

Samuel Doe was mutilated alive by Yommie Johnson, Bokassa fed oppositions to lions, Idi Amin killed opposition including his own wife any how, he called that VIP treatment.

The guy Mubarak, was being put to trial, which means he is still a suspect. What if he is found not guilty as charged, are they going to remove the cage view from peoples' brains. If they already confirmed him guilty, no need to waste peoples time by this charade.

Al-Mustapha

Chief Olu Akerele, a former Personal Assistant to the late Chief M.K.O. Abiola, has punctured the claim by Major Hamza Al-Mustapha that he witnessed the death of the acclaimed winner of the June 12, 1993 presidential election.
Al-Mustapha was the former Chief Security Officer to the late head of state, Gen. Sani Abacha.
Akerele told our correspondent in Abuja on Friday that at the time of the death of Abiola, Al-Mustapha had already been transferred out of Abuja to Enugu.
He said, “Abacha died on June 8, the then Chief of Army Staff, Gen. Ishaya Bamaiyi, transferred Al-Mustapha on June 9 to Bakassi and later to Enugu.

[b]“Abiola died July 7. So, how come Al-Mustapha claimed to be around when Abiola died? He also claimed to love Abiola. This is most ridiculous of all the lies the man has been telling unsuspecting Nigerians.

“This is a man who engineered the sacking of a customs officer, who accommodated the late Kudirat Abiola during the trial of Chief Abiola. He later locked up this harmless lady for 10 days. So, how can he claim to love Abiola?”

He said that only two Americans, Thomas Pickering and Susan Rice, were in the position to tell Nigerians the last day of Abiola. He added that these were the people that could give a vivid account of how the business mogul died.

He said, “On the day Chief Abiola died, there were only four people present.
“Those present on that day were the then Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Alhaji Gidado Idris; the running mate to Abiola, Alhaji Babagana Kingibe, Pickering and Rice.
“At a time, Rice and Pickering asked Idris and Kingibe to excuse them, as they wanted to talk to Abiola. Major Mustapha was far away in Enugu as an intelligence officer attached to the Nigerian Army 82 Division at that time.
“He was nowhere near the Aguda Lodge, Abuja, when the talks between Abiola and the two Americans were taking place. These Americans were among those that rushed Abiola to the Aso Clinic. [/b]
“So, whatever he is saying now is mere diversionary tactics and grandstanding. He should face the murder charge of the killing of Kudirat Abiola.”

Akerele, who claimed to have spent 18 months in detention on the orders of Al-Mustapha, added that Nigerians must not take the former CSO seriously.

kettykin:
what happens to those who bought shares of these banks,

sanusi is driven by northern / islamic patriotism let us see where that will take him to, for 2 years now no meaninful progress in the banking industry, why didnt the federal government allow soludo to finish what he started why bring this clown to kill/nationalise private banks and introduce sharia banks.

If private banks dont do well is it sharia banks that will ?

na today, those shares have disappeared since now, lol. the best we can hope for is to have the same number of unit @ N0.50K. These are shares Bank PhB sold at N17 each, Those thieving CEOs no go die well, may God prolong their lives in suffering and miserable conditions.

Those Egyptians thought they are humiliating Mubarak, but if they really have sense they would know that they are ridiculing their own country. There is nothing bad in trial of bad ruler but nothing to achieve with that drama. What treat is old man to them. Can he run away or what? Chains is to prevent escape or violent acts from criminal. Even America do have some respect for leaders dignity, or why did America pad fine on behalf of Dickey Cheney forhis involvement in Haliburton bribery scandal in Nigeria.

Mubarak and others who make tight friends with Western powers should learn from this. They are on their when the tide turns.

^^^Thanks for that correction, so anago is a derog like nigger, yanmirin, beerebe, ofe manu, ajokuta ma mumi, lol.
no wonder when we speak incorrect yoruba in those days my mum we say mi o gbo anago e  meaning i don't understand your anago.
I remeber also that they called our mothers, mummy arata (alata). We were told it came from a new yoruba woman who went to market to buy pepper, she diid not understand ashanti so she told pepper seller "A ra ata" - I want to buy pepper.
there are many other version too like "kara kata" or "aa ra aa ta" (buy and sell or trading) which most nigerians engaged in those days.

I am not sure Yoruba are natives in Ghana , they are more less long time traders like Yorubas in Abdijan especially the Ejigbo people  or the Ogbomosos in Jos or Hausas in Agege. (The Adelumolos) Some people have their great grandpas born there in 1890s.

Let us just hope the video will not turn out to be the kind Abacha had for Diya's coup which was without audio and had him changing clothes. He was showing this for visitors to the Aso rick until Awujale challenged the autenticity of the video clip.

Some SW leaders met Abacha at a time, that was why some people like Jakande, Ebenezer Babatope and co served in Abacha government. They were asked by the same SW to leave the govt, they refused. People like Babatope became apologist for Abacha and became virtually politically irrelivant after his death So if the video has no voice, I will be very suspecious of facts form it.

If the person who killed 91 people in Norway was a Muslim, the Press would have declared him as terrorist.​ For now though, he is just an 'Assailant​ ', 'Attacker'​ (Reuters),​ 'Gunman' (BBC, CNN ). Looks like 'Terrorist​ ' is a name reserved for Muslims? The US Dept of State calls it an 'Act of Violence',​ Not an 'Act of Terrorism'​ . Uhmn! HYPOCRISY is leading us astray

Happy Birthday again to the man who made the following speech.

"I have never known anything called tribalism. A very senior cleric in the church accused me of removing christians from decision making positions in CBN. I became Gov in 2009, the term of the CBN board of Directors expired. I recommended a board for reappointment to President Yaradua, out of the 11 members on the board, only 3 are Muslims.
The Monetary policy Committee of the CBN which I constituted has 7 members, only 1 is a muslim. A Deputy Governor's seat became open when I was Governor, Dr. Kingsley Moghalu was in Geneva. I went, convinced him to come back to Nigeria and convinced the President to appoint him. On our 5 member Committee of Governors(COG), 3 are Christians, 2 are Muslims. We have 24 Departmental Directors in CBN that I appointed, only 8 are Muslims.
These are the people who took this decisions on Islamic Banking(IB). The Director of Financial Policy n Regulation who signed and issued the guidelines on IB,his name is CHRISTIAN Chukwu. He reports to DG in charge of Financial Systems Stability, Dr K. Moghalu. The report comes to the COG of 5, 3 of them are Christians.

It goes.to a board(CBN) of 11, 8 of them are Christians.
Then all these Christians must be bad Christians if they are part of an attempt to Islamise Nigeria.
I dont want to engage people. I can discuss this on religious ground. I can qoute from Exodus, Deutronym and Leviticus. I have sources from St Augustine, St Ambrose,St,  And different Popes, Clement, up to Pope Benedict VI, I have qoutes on IB. I can debate on religious grounds and prove to anybody based on the Bible.

In fact the Natural Council of Christianity at one time said anybody who gives usury should not be buried in a catholic cemetry.
I can debate with anybody on Religious grounds based on the bible and the teachings of the Church that Usury is less consistent with christian teachings."

It is possible that SW leaders met Abacha at a time, that should explain why people like Jakande, Ebenezer Babatope and co served in Abacha government. They were asked by the same SW to leave the govt, they refused. People like Babatope became apologist for Abacha and became virtually politically irrelivant after his death So if the audio has no voice, I will be very suspecious facts

3 CONFIRMED ATTENDEES TO DATE

^^ If Ibadan is created, then Ogbomosho and Oyo will have to fight for capital then, but Ogbomosho will come out like asaba to delta since it will not be in the center, its almost at edge.

What are you delivering, have you forgotten that is the town of Akala and Akintola? lol

^^ Ibadan maybe created to allow growth of rest of oyo state, ibadan has the pull similar to kano, kano has been broken over and over, but ib is same. Ijebu may come up too. no justification to break the tiny state of omoluabi, osun.

^^^^ tpia, osun is too small to get another state created out of her, only hope that area is either Ibadan state or ijebu state. you may try your luck right now.

^^ which state are you hoping to represent? may be that time they would declare 8 weeks for lent,

Jonathan forwards names of nominees for REC, ICPC
| Print | E-mail
Written by Ayodele Adesanmi, Abuja
Friday, 29 July 2011

President Goodluck Jonathan, on Thursday, forwarded the name of Mr Francis Ugochukwu as chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) to the Senate for consideration, just as he forwarded five names for confirmation as members of the commission.

He equally forwarded an eight-member list which cut across the six geopolitical zones for confirmation as Resident Electoral Commissioners (REC).

This came as the Senate commenced a 32-day recess, expected to resume plenary on Tuesday, September 13.

The nominees for the ICPC include: Alhaji Abdullahi Ado Bayero (North-West), Alhaji Isa Ozi Salami (North-Central), Ekpo Una Owo Nta (South-South), Professor Olu Aina (South-West), Dame Julie Onum-Nwariaku (South-East).

The president, in his letter addressed to the Senate on the appointment into the ICPC said, “Section 3(3) of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Act 2000 provides that the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission shall consist of a chairman and 12 other members, two of whom shall come from each of the six geopolitical zones. In this connection, there are vacancies in the composition of the commission.

“I have therefore, in the exercise of the powers conferred on me by section 3 (6) of the Corrupt Practices and Other Related Act, 2000, decided to appoint the following members of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission.

He reminded the senate that Mr Francis Ugochukwu Elechi’s name had earlier been forwarded for confirmation as chairman of the commission, noting that it is my hope that, “the chairmanship nominee will be considered along with the above listed five nominees.”

^^^ LOL, he has done his own on fb. I think its even better for him that another person is as ardent supporter, so he is not a lone voice.

You can leave the transformer alone now.

Ramadan Kareem to all Muslims worldwide, may Allah accept our efforts as acts of ibaadah, Amin.
