There is a particular dream I had several times for the past 20 years. I dream that I was still serving my master where I was an apprentice when i was about 13.It has been more than 25 years now since i got my freedom but i keep on dreaming about my apprenticeship years.Though at that time i was forced to go a learn the skill against my will, I later went back to school after getting freedom and graduated from university and not practicing the skill i got from my master.However i keep on seeing myself in my dream in the place where i learned the work even with my master ( Oga).

Just expressing my worry over the fall in crude oil price to $33 this week. If price continues to fall,Nigeria may enter another recession and payment of all these fabulous salaries may suffer or the government will start to borrow again to pay its workers.Am worried about the development.

My brother/sister,there will always be people like this among us.No matter how nice and generous you are, some people will still say something negative about you.Doubting Thomases are everywhere. But i don't blame them sometimes,it is as a result of some weird things happening in the societies these days.

Touch the DG,Permanent secretary or whosoever is in charge to sign the approval for my APL that I may give You all the glory,My God and Creator. I am tired of the private sector. I want to move to the public sector. Lord have mercy on me, Amen.

Have they collected the N400 million from him? That is more important ; if not he will serve his jail term with joy knowing the loot is still there for him to enjoy after his release.

pls tell us you want to create agency to support ISIS

What risks are involved?

Carry on.. But at your risk

Please house members, is it possible for me to cut my age just to compensate for the number of years I was unemployed?

Just imagine this scenario, a girl who was purposefully dressed for a mission to seduce a man and she is naturally blessed with two big breasts and big yansh cleaning and mopping for a long period of time and you are there watching her and salivating to touch those big oranges. she is not your sister nor your mother or even your daughter, and you think you will not fall into the well arranged temptation.You are a man and not a wood. Tell us the truth and the truth shall set you free. It is a lesson, even the Bible say we should flee from every appearance of evil..... . You fell woefully into the temptation. It could happen to any man except you flee the scene. How do you know that she is maid?

Who is this Dundee united?

DeepSight:
The absence of a developed black nation is a question highly influenced by climatic factors and thier interplay with the dynamics of trade and history. However things will pick up in the next century on account of the force of globalised infomation.

Please be specific with your question and perhaps I can answer it. If your question is however simply how we move forward, I will suggest you start by getting involved. And there are many levels at which you can be involved. Beyond just voting (since you don't believe in the available options) there is a lot you can contribute. Countries do not become developed magically. Humans do it. And you are human are you not?

Now tell me, can you not try to dream up an idea that will put your country on the map in one segment or the other?

I totally disagree with you regarding to climatic factors. which climatic factor has kept us backward for centuries in Africa? Do u what to blame God for creating us in this location or the other continents do not have even worse climatic/natural factors such earthquakes,tornadoes,tsunamis,etc.

The only problem with this increase is the ability of state govt to pay especially states still owing salaries for months.

Blablablanla,please shut up!

Na your father and mother, should shut up cursed generation. ewu

He is just being a slowpoke. Thief.

Ziggylady:
Stop calling Igbos her because no one is begging you..We do not care what you do..You can vote a goat for all we care..Life goes on.

Igbo people are only digging hatred for themselves for outrightly hating PMB without any cause. Mark it, no igbo man will ever rule this country because of their hatred for other tribes. They are too tribalism and that is why u can find other tribes living in SE in large number. Igbo people will vote for Atiku because of obi and Atiku stance on corruption. They voted for Tofa against Abiola and were happy when IBB annulled the election and even paid solidarity visits to Abacha.We still remember all these facts.

Yoruba people will not vote for Atiku just because of igbo hatred for yoruba people. They refused to vote for Buhari just because of osinbajo. Now they want yorubas to vote for Atiku/Obi candidacy. It is only a bastard yoruba that will vote for Atiku.We still remember how they were mocking yoruba people during Abiola's lost mandate and called yoruba people cowards and started paying visits to Abacha.Even during GEJ corrupt govt,the then secretary of the faderation ( Anyim Pius) was mocking the yoruba elders and sideline the entire SW.

Good morning Nigerians.
I never thought a day will come when I will have to agree with any decision Buhari has taken. On the NHIS thing, I regretfully have to admit that he was right.

We had all condemned the reinstatement of the NHIS Boss who was accused of corruption.
THREAD
NHIS started functioning in 2005.
It’s 13yrs old this year.
NHIS covers 3million Nigerians. It’s about Health Care but because of corruption, the agency has not performed well. Politicians turned NHIS into an ATM.

Let me explain
HMOs -Health Maintenance ORG’s all private companies owned by politicians are the real problem of NHIS. They are middle men between NHIS and the hospitals. They have so enthroned corruption to another level in the place.
The HMOs receive money from NHIS on behalf of the people to pay hospitals so that Nigerians on the NHIS scheme can enjoy medical services but they refuse to pay the hospitals and corner the money. NHIS gives the HMOs 3 months in advance to pay hospitals but they were not paying.
What they do with the NHIS money:
A. They fix it in banks to accrue interest.
B. They buy forex And do trading with it.
C. They take loans using it as collateral. When banks know you are getting massive funds from NHIS, they give you 10 times the amount in your account.
So instead of the HMOs to pay the hospitals as agreed on time, they are heavily indebted to all hospitals nationwide. Crippling healthcare services nationwide. They owe National hospital alone N400million.
It’s a major cartel.
There are 57 HMOs. They are the cartel at NHIS. They work hand in hand with every Minister of Health, Board Members, the Executive Secretary(EX) & politicians in government to run the place to the ground.

Apparently this new EX refused to play ball & they declared war on him.
Someone early this year contacted me from NHIS that the EX is destroying the agency, etc and that they were appealing to my organization to come to their rescue. I told him I needed to do my Due diligence but I never did. We all joined later to crucify the man.
So just last week I coincidently ran into a friend that works at NHIS and he started briefing me of all the dirty things going on there. It’s really depressing. The things I heard made me wonder if this country can ever be great.

I will explain all that is going on there.
So this EX appointed by Buhari came and found out that there was massive corruption going on at NHIS & he wanted to stop it but the cartel “HMOs” declared war on him. The HMOs said he can’t stop the norm & teamed up with politicians in Buhari’s government to start fighting him.
The HMOs got the support of the Board Chairman of NHIS and other members of the Board who are all politicians. Got the support of the Minister of Health & other politicians. What was the crime of this EX guy? He wanted to block where politicians are eating.
The issue they had with the EX guys were:

They were not paying hospitals.
Many of their licenses had expired since 2013 & he was asking then to renew before they get disbursements of money, etc.
One of the conditions the EX guy gave was that every HMOS must go to the hospitals to get a letter of non indebtedness signed by the CMD before they will get funds from the agency.

The hospitals were happy with the new development but HMOs were unhappy.
The NHIS is so strategically important to Nigerians. In a working country, every citizen should be captured in the scheme. NHIS pays Federal, State & even private hospitals through HMOs. Nigerians on the scheme are the main beneficiaries.
Many workers are on the scheme. NHIS also pay Military & Police hospitals nationwide. The police alone have over 800k officers and their dependents on the scheme.
The ministry of health and politicians are the number 1 problem of NHIS in Nigeria. They use NHIS as an ATM. Because the EX guy stopped them, he was suspended on allegations of corruption which many of us believed because of media trial. EFCC then investigated him.
The reason he was reinstated was because EFCC did not find him wanting according to my friend that works there. He said after his reinstatement, the EX guy became more tough on the HMOs and the Board & the Minister began to plot his removal again.
The EX guy was just suspended again on the eve of delisting many unqualified HMOS. A Pre-emptive move by the NHIS Board & the Minister. The union is also on the payroll of the HMOs.

The HMOs are the real cartel at NHIS.
HMOs were angry that the EX instituted a forensic audit of NHIS finances. Audit discovered that N46billion of NHIS money were stashed in different banks. These are people’s money ooo. The HMOs say the EX is using EFCC, CBN, AG, Accountant General & Asset Recovery to fight them.
Our national & State hospitals are under funded and many of them survive on the NHIS money. For instance, FMC Asaba got only about N18million from the budget last year & they require over N10million to power the hospital with diesel. So how will they survive without NHIS funding?
So if the HMOs take money from NHIS and refuse to give the hospitals, they are destroying our health sector. The Union, the Board and the Ministry of Health should stop the rubbish they are doing to cripple our health sector.

We @ConcernedNIG will come into this matter fully.

Stop associating the name of Kumuyi with renowned thieves.

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaa 5 percenteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer. why Atiku ?

................. in the valley of shadow of death................

I really want about 20 acres but I can only pay on installments for two years. I am a civil servant about to retire to agriculture.This is my village.

Jonathan 1:1 oshiomole ............................... live

People can be so wicked at times. Ha that woman really dealt with u. how can she sell seed for u for 60k and buy the whole harvest for 10k.

Daura is long due for sacking. remember that he wrote a damaging report to the national assembly on Magu making the Buhari govt to look stupid and unserious.He is secretly supporting saraki. There is also the alleged bribery rumour levelled against him over MTN saga.

please can you send me a price list for the palm oil processing machines. olasimbank@yahoo.com

No more free money again, we need to cut our cloth according to our size.My friend relocated from citec estate to a house he built at orozo within 1 year. he said that he regretted wasting N1.8 per year for 5years.

We need not to policise every discussion on this forum. I think the major cause of this fall is recession which led to fall in demand for virtually all commodities coupled with the fact that the introduction of TSA has made many civil servants who have been living largely on corruption and paying heavy rent on most of these houses in Abuja to have a rethink and start developing theirs in the satellite areas of fct. Come to Karu,Jikwoyi, Mararaba,orozo, Karshi and see for yourself. you will see many rich civil servants who were paying about N2M for a 2 bedroom flat in places like wuse2, garki, maitama,etc, are now building their own houses in these sattelite town where land with valid title can be bought at less than N1M. Many artisans and traders who were tenants are now building their houses on land belonging to nasarawa state in jiwoyi, orozo, mararaba loco, karshi,etc.If u see the powerful and exotic cars coming out from the sattelite town in the morning and the traffic problem at Nyanya on any working day, u will believe this my point.
