Fasheun,ur opposition to Buhari's presidency is not a surprise.
Some billions of naira were given to Opc under ur leadership sometimes ago by Jonathan govt to protect the destruction of oil pipelines by the vandals.
This is the best time to pay back wht President Jonathan has done in ur life.
People in the southwest have resolved to vote out ur benefactor come feb 14,this year.
You can do the survey urself,ask the artisans,the market women,the farmers,students etc,they wil tell u that they are tired of Jonathan govt and dt they are yearning for a change.
It is jst a matter of time,Buhari will win the coming presidential election irrespective of ethnic and religious sentiments being used against his person.
Fasheun is even not a force to reckon with in south-west politics.
You shd continue to decieve Jonathan.
sai buhari!

Nigerian oil tycoon, Mrs. Folorunsho Alakija, is now the richest black woman in the world with an estimated fortune of $7.3 billion.

Mother of four, Alakija, 62, unseats Winfrey as the richest black woman in the world.

According to Forbes, Oprah Winfrey is worth $2.9 billion. Africa boasts 55 billionaires and they’re worth a staggering $143.88 billion in total, according to pan-African magazine Ventures Africa.
Alakija started her career as a secretary in a bank in the mid 1970s. She then studied fashion in London and returned to Nigeria to start a label, Supreme Stitches. But her biggest break came in oil. In 1993, her company, Famfa Oil, was awarded an oil prospecting licence, which later became OML 127, one of Nigeria’s most prolific oil blocks.

The company owns a 60-per-cent stake in the block, valued at around $7.3 billion, Ventures Africa has reported.

As the Oguntuase family in Akure, Ondo State, continues to mourn the gruesome death of foremost Pediatrician, Dr. David Oguntuase, his wife, Ifeyinwa, has cried out to security agencies to help find his killers. Dr. Oguntuase who would have been 54 in January, died in his private clinic on Christmas Eve in a mysterious fire incident suspected by his family
to be the handiwork of assassins. Ifeyinwa, a social worker also at the Federal Medical Centre, Owo, told our correspondent that she received his last phone call at about 6.42pm on that Wednesday, instructing her on the need to shop for some basic provisions before dark because of the holiday season. She said her husband left home in the evening without his car which was under repair at a mechanic workshop, and did not return home before the family went to bed. According to her, because of the nature of his job as a medical doctor, he often kept late nights and sometimes didn’t return home if he had a case at the hospital. She, however, noted that he usually called to notify her whenever he planned to come home late. She noted that her husband was earlier robbed of his phones and other valuables the previous Saturday in the same area where his clinic was located. Ifeyinwa recounted the travails of her husband at the FMC as he was earlier interrogated by the police
on trumped up allegations of plotting with others to assassinate the Chief Medical Director. Flanked by her three children, Ifedayo, 18; Temitope, 14 and Oluwatoyin, 11, at their home at Ijapo Estate, she asserted that her husband of 20 years did not die in a fire accident. “For all I know, my husband was gruesomely murdered and I want justice for him,” she said. She, however, could not explain why her husband was alone at the hospital at the time of the incident,
a question which had been on the lips of many residents in the area. “My husband was not a careless person; he was very meticulous and knew how to put things in their place. He was not lazy. “He was simple and forthright. He used his clinic for
charity. The clinic did not bring money home; he used his salary to pay his workers. He was kind- hearted and selfless,” she said. Asked if she believed the police could find the killers, she said, “I know they (police) can do something if they want to. They should find the killers at least to prove my confidence in them.”http://www.punchng.com/metro-plus/my-husband-was-assassinated-i-want-justice/

Bill Gates spent billions of dollars to ensure eradication of polio.The monies were nt handed over to the fed govt,he has an agency that ensures judicious use of the dollars.If the money were to b handed over to fed govt,we wil b talking of mismanagement of funds nw and nt this success.
Bill Gates takes this credit and nt Jonathan.
Transformation in health sector my foot,this year alone,Doctors were on strike for 2 mths and presntly other health workers are on strike.Our hospitals are nothing but mere consulting clinics.
The rich travel abroad to seek medical help,the poor die daily as a result of poor medical facilities.
This govt shd nt take the credit of an individual who spends his fortunes to better the lives of the masses.

The family of Dr. Akintayo Oguntuase, Head of
Pediatrics at the Federal Medical Centre, Owo, Ondo
State, who was found dead in his clinic in Akure,
after it was razed by a mysterious fire in the eve of
Christmas, has said the medical practitioner was
murdered in cold blood. Universal Medical Clinic was in flames in the
midnight of December 24, when residents of
Araromi area of the city were in a festive mood and
by the time the billows of fire and smoke faded out
in the morning of December 25, the proprietor,
Oguntuase, was found burnt and mutilated. While the police in Ondo are still busy examining
the different theories and leads to unraveling the
cause of the fire, the deceased’s family has
concluded that the medical practitioner was killed
by assassins and burnt to give a semblance of a
fire accident. Otunba Ben Oguntuase, the elder brother of
deceased, in a statement made available to our
correspondent on Friday, said, “Dr. David Akintayo
Oguntuase, a Consultant Pediatrician and Head of
Pediatrics at the Federal Medical Centre, Owo, was
brutally murdered by assassins/arsonists, leaving behind a most gory sight.” He said a thorough examination of the remains of
the hospital and the site of the incident revealed
trails left behind by the murderers and how they
accomplished the dastardly act. “Evidently, they shot him in the main clinic area and
carried his body to the room in the back area
where the left him face down. Not done, they
severed his hands and legs before proceeding to
douse the body with petrol. “The rest of the building on the inside was
sprinkled with petrol before it was all set ablaze. It
obviously was an inferno that raged leading the
building to implode as the roof caved inward,” the
senior Oguntuase stated. He noted that the fire did not affect other buildings
around, suggesting that it was professionally
plotted and executed. Explaining the premises on which his theory was
based, Ben Oguntuase said the walls of the clinic
were stained with blood, showing that the slain
medical practitioner was attacked and dragged to
the place where he was eventually burnt. The Police Public Relations Officer in Ondo State, Mr.
Wole Ogodo, said although the command had yet
to get a full briefing on the development, the family
would be required to come up with the leads and
substantial evidence supporting their position.http://www.punchng.com/news/assassins-burnt-doctor-who-died-in-inferno-family/

The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory
Commission (NERC) on Tuesday
approved a review of the Multi Year Tariff
Order (MYTO) 2 regime with an
implication for takeoff date for a
disciplined electricity market by January 1, 2015.
With the commencement of MYTO 2.1,
the commission will now progressively
hold electricity distribution, transmission
and generation companies as well as
other market operators to the terms and conditions of their licences.
The commission’s chairman Dr Sam
Amadi, said, “It is expected that the
take-off of MYTO 2.1 will bring about
improved service delivery as distribution
companies are now expected to implement their investment plans for
metering and strengthen their networks
in line with their bid documents.”
He explained that the adjustment in
methodology is not expected to bring
about any increase in tariff to the residential customers on R1 and R2,
who formed majority of electricity
consumers, at least not in the next six
months.
Explaining the rationale behind the
adjustment, Amadi said that the commission had shielded ordinary
Nigerians from possibility of rates shock
that could have accompanied the review
while pressing the operators for
improved service delivery and to abide
by the agreement they signed into while acquiring the electricity entities.
He explained further that the review was
imperative on account of possible the
take off date of January 1, 2015, for the
transition electricity market and the
memorandum of understanding between the Central Bank of Nigeria
(CBN) and the Nigerian Electricity Supply
Industry (NESI).
According to him, all these measures
were being put in place to ensure the
new owners can fund their operations and ensure improved electricity supply
to the economy as well as expand the
amount of electricity available for
economic development.
With this development the existing
regime of Interim Rules, whereby the Commission govern the market without
the full rigours of the MYTO, as situation
arises will cease, while activities of the
market will now be governed by strict
contractual obligationshttp://leadership.ng/news/397585/nerc-new-electricity-tariff-takes-effect-january-1

consumers in residential places for six months
after the review. Details later…http://www.punchng.com/news/nerc-okays-new-electricity-tariff-on-tuesday/

JOHESU is a JOKE.They just have this inferiority complex troubling them.How were doctors treated? If they were to treated as doctors were treated,they would have been sacked by now.Nobody is even feeling their absence,doctors still attends to patients,no wonder the masses are not talking about them.Clueless set of people.

I dont think the strike is really felt by Nigerians.People have resolved to seek medical help in the private hospitals.Doctors in the fed hospital are idle nw bt still attend to out-patients.At least my uncle ws attended to wen he went for his usual clinic.The Doctors are busy making money in private hosp and smilling to the banks.Johesu have shut down the hospital by cutting off electricity and water supply.
Govt shd start by outsourcing works department in our public hospitals and starting to post administrative staffs from the center.

Yayale report is now out.Govt shd expedite action on it.
Make ur policy in the health sector and let the Doctors and other health workers know their job descriptions.
This shd be done in accordance with international best medical practice including their remunerations.
Anybody that is not satisfied afterward shd resign and seek emplyment somewhere else.

The same Jonathan referred to NEBUCHADNEZZAR by Prof Soyinka.
Soyinka has the right to vote and it is only ONE vote.He should cast his vote for Jonathan and leave us to make our own decision.

Medical Doctor s too wil be on holiday?
If nt,hw do u compensate the health workers?

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) last night flexed its financial muscle ahead of next year’s polls as stakeholders poured in money for the prosecution of the elections.

Donors at the fund raising ceremony held in Abuja included the various sectors of the economy, PDP governors, businessmen/women and organizations.

A prominent business woman Bola Shagaya and her friends donated N5billion. An equal amount of N5billion came from friends of Professor Jerry Gana,chairman of the funds raising committee while the 21 PDP governors gave N1.05billion, while those who called themselves friends donated N3 billion.

Other high profile donors were construction sector with N310m, transport N1 billion, real estate N4b, the energy sector-N500million, PDP Rivers State stakeholders-N50million.

Others were food and agriculture N5b, Cifex N10m, power sector N500m , Shelter Development Limited N250m, Emzor N50m, the NDDC governing board N15m, auto sector N450m and PDP youth group N50m.

Present at the event were President Goodluck Jonathan, Vice President Namadi Sambo, Senate President David Mark, House of Representatives Deputy Speaker Emeka Ihedioha, PDP governors, Ministers, PDP National Chairman Adamu Muazu and the Chairman, Board of Trustees of the PDP, Chief Antony Anenih.

The ceremony was still in progress at press time. The huge donation according to the Electoral Act runs foul of the law. Section 221 of the 1999 Constitution prohibits a State Government from contributing to the election expenses of any candidate or aspirant.

The Electoral Act Section 91 (90 of the Code of conduct for Political Parties and Elections limits individual donations and contributions to a maximum of N1m.

Electoral Act, Section 91 of the Act criminalizes contravention of limitation on election expenses. A Presidential Candidate who knowingly contravenes it is liable to a maximum fine of N1, 000,000.00 or imprisonment for a period of12 months or both.

PRESIDENT Goodluck Jonathan on Friday
received the report of the Presidential
Committee of Experts on Inter-Professional
Relationship in the Public Health Sector,
vowing to act on its recommendations to
end “unhealthy rivalries” among healthcare professionals. Receiving the report from the chairman of
the committee and former Head of Service,
Alhaji Mahmud Yayale Ahmed, at the
Presidential Villa, Abuja, Jonathan said that
the Federal Government would review the
report immediately with a view to issuing a white paper on it and begin the
implementation of its accepted
recommendations early next year. “I had to set up the committee because I am
very sad, and I know most Nigerians feel
very sad that strikes and unhealthy rivalries
among professionals in the health sector
have adversely affected medical services,”
the president said. Jonathan added that he was optimistic that
the implementation of the committee’s
accepted recommendations would help to
end unhealthy rivalries and incessant
strikes in the public health sector, which, he
said, had created an atmosphere of uncertainty in the sector. He added that this had left many people
with fewer options for quality medical
services. Earlier, Yayale Ahmed told the president that
the committee identified 50 areas of conflict
after receiving memoranda and interacting
with about 40 professional bodies in the
public health sector and members of the
public. He said that the areas of conflict were
categorised into organisational,
management, leadership and team work,
remuneration and motivation, career
management, capacity building,
professional practice, labour, legal and governance issues.http://tribune.com.ng/news/news-headlines/item/24667-health-sector-makes-me-sad-jonathan
