Since Muhammadu Buhari took over the reins of power on May 29, his governance style has been a major debate among Nigerians. Contrary to the claims of the opposition People Democratic Party President Buhari has been able to record some successes in his government so far. During his electoral campaign, Buhari, from the All Progressives Congress (APC) party, vowed among other things, that he would fight Boko Haram insurgency, eradicate corruption, promote youth employment and women empowerment. However, the president has so far achieved only one promise out of the 222 made during the campaign, according to the “Buharimeter” app, which allows residents to keep track of Buhari’s promises. Check out 23 things that has happened since inauguration of Nigerian leader and that show the change is coming: 1. Relocation of Military Central Command Centre to Borno from Abuja; 2. Listing of 100 Most Wanted Boko Haram members to the public; 3. Screening and confirmation of 36 ministers; 4. Reduction of ministries and federal parastatals; 5. Non-intervention in the legislative duties; 6. Appointment of new INEC chief and commissioners; 7. Rearrangement and re-awakening of the anti- corruption agency – EFCC; 8. State bailout funds; 9. Different tribunal annulments of recent governorship polls; 10. Implementation of Treasury Single Account 11. Over-hauling and transparency of the NNPC 12. Says no to naira devaluation; 13. Renewed vigour in the war against Boko Haram; 14. In the process of recovering stolen funds from abroad; 15. Working for reduction in the scarcity of fuel; 16. Appreciable improvement in power supply in different parts of Nigeria; 17. Scrabble, Basketball and Football (Under 17 World Cup) championships; 18. Reducing the size and cost of governance by reducing thepresident’s own salary; 19. Starting a war against corruption; 20. Prioritizing regional cooperation; 21. Scrapping of SURE-P programme; 22. Retrenchment of permanent secretaries; 23. Declaration of assets publicly. |
PunkyVeer:thank u so much |
A friend of mine asked me for an advice on what he should do. He met a lady on one of the social site and they exchanged contact and started chatting and calling each other. He initially has the intention of dating her in the first place but, he was discouraged to tell her his mind becasue the lady told him he has a boyfriend when they were chatting. But recently the lady requested to see him in physical. They both later fixed a date that they will meet and finally met. The lady cooked in his house and both of them ate even in the same plate. They watched movies and gist throughout her stay. When she was about going he asked her about her boyfriend but, she felt reluctant to answer. She later replied him that ‘he is fine’. He jokingly asked when they are going to get married and she told him the guy is yet to propose. According to her they have been dating for 3 years but the guy is yet to define the relationship with her. To my friend biggest surprise he asked to see the picture of her boyfriend, on showing him her boyfriend was his colleague at work and hold her that he knows her boyfriend that they work with same company, but not working in the same state. My friend really has feelings for her and he said the way the girl carried herself when she visited him seems like she likes him too but shy of expressing herself. The question now is should my friend woo this lady or just remain as friend since his colleague is her boyfriend? Thanks for your contribution |
Reflect for a second, what are the aspects of your partner or the love of your life that attracts you the most? Is it their eyes that stare at you as if you’re the only one they see? Is it their smile, so sweet playful or pure? Is it their perfect skin, smooth and glowing? Is it their lovely face and features? Or their hot perfect body? But take away all these qualities and you are left only with the very essence or core personality of your partner to admire, would you still love them? Much as we hate to admit it, somehow the physical appearance has become a huge determining factor for attraction and love. With the advent of social media where we easily gauge a person’s attractiveness by their photos and physical appearance, sometimes people don’t look past the physical to know people’s personality anymore. We are into physical attraction first, let personality follow suit. The man proves that true love does not rely on physical aspects. As reported by Kapook, a Thai news outlet, the lady works in a factory with her brother, an accident happened and they got splashed with acid that disfigured them. The lady has been blind for over five years now since the incident. She was quoted as saying in Thai “I felt sad, angry even. But I was lucky I still have my husband”. Despite the scars and imperfections, he still takes care and loves his girl. The woman lost her eyes and eyesight. She also had her nose and mouth melted off her face. The injuries continue on to her body as can be seen by her scarred neck, arms and thighs. Kudos to the lovely couple who shows us that true love does not just see, but feels. It accepts and doesn’t judge. May we all find a love that can last us our lifetimes, even if beauty fades away, or that hot body of our partners turn saggy or wrinkly due to age. Let us celebrate unconditional, long-lasting love. Let us love in a way that will last forever.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on
Thursday urged President Muhammadu
Buhari to resign as the country’s President
for admitting that the nation is broke.
The party said the comment was a clear
manifestation of inability to lead the
country.
PDP described Buhari’s lamentation as
“annoying”, wondering why he was looking
for excuses after boasting to the whole
world that he will fix Nigeria.
At a press conference yesterday by PDP
publicity secretary in Edo state, Chris
Nehikhareto, the party challenged Buhari to
publish account balances of all
transactions by previous PDP led
government under former President
Goodluck Jonathan and the APC led
government under him since assumption of
office.
“President Buhari should show Nigerians the
account balances and how much money he
met in the coffers of the federal
government since he came in,” he said.
“He has not shown anybody the accounts
balance as at today. If he says the
government is broke and he cannot manage
it he should resign and handover power to
someone who has responsibility and can
manage the economy better.
“The lamentation of Mr. President and his
APC government is becoming annoying and
I don’t think we should tolerate any more
lamentation. They fought tooth and nail to
take over government and now they have
government, let them deal with it”, he
stated.

Nwaogu announced her membership of the APC on Thursday, November 5, 2015, at the party’s national headquarters in Abuja. Abia State Senator, Nkechi Nwaogu has dumped the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the All Progressives Congress (APC). Nwaogu announced her membership of the APC on Thursday, November 5, 2015, at the party’s national headquarters in Abuja. “l am here to fraternise myself once again with my party, APC, to identify myself, to associate myself with the change train and anybody today in this country who does not realise that this is a divine mandate given to APC to usher in change, to sustain change, to bring about change in all endeavours of our lives, especially in our economic lives, is not realistic,” she said. The PDP has witnessed a mass exodus of members since it lost its ruling party status to the APC in the 2015 general elections. www.pulse.ng/politics/apc-abia-senator-nkechi-nwaogu-dumps-pdp-for-ruling-party-id4332804.html

Holysholay:thanks for the update but I wanted to clarify something that I read on punch newspaper concerning the delay in payment. According to Accountant-General of the Federation, Mr Ahmed Idris he said " that whatever technical fault experienced, it had already been resolved and salaries were now being paid. “It is not anything that has to do with lack of money. We have resources; we have money but the technology to deploy. “We now do e-payment so any slight glitch in the technology will impact on payment. And that is what has happened". How true is that E-payment that he mentioned there? Is there any allowances added to your salary? |
UN West Africa Representative, Mohamed
Ibn Chambas, says a regional security
operation against Boko Haram in West
Africa is due to start at the end of the rainy
season in a bid to put an end to the
militants’ offensive in the region.
According to Mr Chambas, the expected
joint raids would adapt to the changing
tactics of the enemy.
“The rainy season is always an opportunity
for terrorist groups and extremist
movements like that to hide in the forests
to perpetrate the atrocities they commit in
the Sahara, Sahel and Savanah zone.
“When the rainy season is over, it makes
the movement of the military much easier
and we expect to see a very aggressive
approach against Boko Haram this coming
dry season,” he said.
Nigerian and Chadian forces early in 2015,
forced the militant group which has sworn
allegiance to Islamic State, to cede large
swathes of territory in northern Nigeria. www.channelstv.com/2015/11/05/anti-boko-haram-raids-set-to-begin/

The Edo State Government on Wednesday said
that it had begun moves to recover $31m which
it said was allegedly “fraudulently taken” from
the government coffers, during the administration
of former Governor Lucky Igbinedion.
According to a statement issued by the Chief
Press Secretary to Governor Adams Oshiomhole,
Peter Okhiria, on Wednesday, the Commissioner
for Information, Mr. Louis Odion, disclosed this
at the end of the State Executive Council
meeting.
He also said that the state government would
commence a legal action against the former
governor’s administration, in order to recover
what had been taken from the government
coffers.
The commissioner said, “There is the issue of a
fraud that was discovered while looking into our
books. We found that $31m was fraudulently
taken from the state coffers under the
administration of Chief Lucky Igbinedion. The
comrade governor has directed the Attorney-
General to commence a legal action in that
direction.
“So, in the coming days, the state government
will take a legal action to ensure that what was
stolen from the Edo State Government is
recovered. When you convert $31m to naira, it
fetches you a whooping N7bn. You can imagine
what N7bn will do in improving the human
condition in Edo State.”
The commissioner praised some landlords and
companies in the state for their compliance with
the payment of the land use charge.
Also speaking, the Commissioner for Commerce
and Industry, Abdul Oroh, alleged that the $31m
was allegedly used to fund a cement firm in
Akoko-Edo Local Government Area of the state.
Oroh said, “As the money was withdrawn, the
construction of the company started and all the
major structures were in place, 90 per cent
completed, machines were installed but there
was no other contribution from any other source
for the construction and procurement of these
equipment. So, everything invested in that
company came from the Edo State Government.”
He also accused the Igbinedion administration of
allegedly privatising the state fruit juice
processing company at a “giveaway” price.
“The fruit juice processing company in Ehor was
established in 2001 by the Lucky Igbinedion’s
administration. The cost of establishing that
company was N368,458,195 invested in this
company by the Edo State Government. The
company was owned 100 per cent by the Edo
State Government. The materials for the
company were imported from England from a
company at a sum of £310,000,” he said.
Oroh added, “The company was now sold
including the land and the three hectares
pineapple farm which was also developed by the
Ministry of Agriculture for N283.8m. The
company was completed and there was a test-
run. There was no reason to privatise it and it
was sold out at a giveaway price which only
could have been influenced by criminal
intentions.’’
Efforts to get the comments of the former
governor failed but a source close to him said
Igbinedion would react to the allegations later. Source: punchng.com/2015/11/4065

Chief Nyesom Wike has boasted of the Rivers state achievements under his less than six month old administration. According to PM News, Wike, the standing governor of Rivers state, said on Wednesday that the his government had completed 70 kilometres of roads in its urban renewable programme. In a chat with newsmen in Port Harcourt, the state capital on Wednesday while inspecting on-going road projects, said the completed roads were in Port Harcourt, Obio/Akpor, Eleme and Oyigbo local governments. The former minister added that the road reconstruction programme of his administration was aimed at improving the state’s economy and that he was satisfied with the pace of road construction. Wike said: “We are interested in infrastructural development because these roads drive the economy. “We have engaged in the total revolution of the road infrastructure for the overall growth of the state. “You can see the joy on the faces of the people during today’s inspection visits to industry road and Borokiri. “You can see that the people are happy with the government for the revolution in the road infrastructure sector.” He added also that in the last two months, his administration has been busy with key projects in housing, education, environmental and agricultural sectors. The governor, who recently had his election into power as the governor of the state ruled out by the court, also issued a warning to his counterpart in the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dakuku Peterside, insisting that he (Peterside) should forget a rerun of the 2015 gubernatorial election.

9. Ruby Gyang/ Jesse Jags We are happy! Jagz nation boss, Jesse Jags has since reconciled with his baby mama, Ruby Gyang. The two music stars had a daughter together seven years ago. The two met way back in Jos and the rest, as they say, is history. We hope their love stays strong to bring them together under one roof as man and wife. 10. Nadia Buari/ Jim Iyke We hate to say this, but the chances of these Nollywood icons getting married some day are very, very slim. Nadia Buari is now a proud mother of twin girls, while Jim is also father to a cute baby boy with his 23-year-old Lithuanian girlfriend, Dana Kinduyte, who reportedly lives in Atlanta. They were such a cute couple and also spotted at events while their relationship lasted. They would have made a very remarkable celebrity couple of recent time.

5. Ini Edo/ Mike Godson The alleged secret romance between Ini Edo and a budding actor, Mike Godson, became the talk of town shortly after the pictures of the stars ruffling bed sheets went viral. Although they both denied it with claims that the pictures were from movie scenes, but city wags are of the opinion that until the said movie is released, their defence remain null and void. It was later revealed that the heat on both parties were too much, which allegedly forced them to part ways. 6. Tania Omotayo/ Wizkid Wizkid and Tania Omotayo reportedly started dating in 2012, but they have been off and on. On Friday, August 14, 2015 Wizkid openly declared his affection for American rapper, Dej Loaf, which made his fans to ask the place of Tania Omotayo in his life. But we learnt both are having their groves back and no doubt, Wizkid still has some years before considering marriage, but we know Tania would be a good choice because she has been tolerating. 7. Kehinde Bankole/Tope Tedela The handsome budding actor, Tope Tedela, is a simple ladies’ man. News broke that he was in love with fellow actor, Kehinde Bankole, but he denied the speculations. Tope had stressed that Kehinde is just a colleague and nothing more as against the romance stories. Kehinde on her part also dissociated herself with any romantic moment with Tedela. But the fact that they are both some young and single makes the match-making easy. We would love to see them pronounced man and wife someday. 8. Kate Henshaw/JJC Top rated actress, Kate Henshaw played the love interest in JJC Skillz new video for ‘See Us Now‘. The two acted as lovers in the video. The ‘couple’ really loved-up making it look so real! That was the second time Kate and JJC will work together on a music video. She appeared in his 2012 ‘African Skank’ video. JJC is a single baby daddy while Kate is a divorced mother of one, so what stops them from taking their ‘video relationship’ farther?

Over the weekend, two popular celebrities in Nigeria, Ubi Franklin and Lilian Esoro officially became husband and wife. Indeed, their union, which started on a controversial note, was admired and appreciated by their fans and most of their colleagues in the entertainment industry. What started as a speculation has ended as a reality. These are the Nigerian celebrities some fans would love to end up as husband and wife. 1. Rita Dominic/ Femi Jacobs “Love is jumping when your partner’s favourite club scores a goal. I feel grateful, thankful and excited as well. Yes I am dating someone and I am in a happy place. I’m good,” those were the words of Rita in an interview with Blanck magazine where she subtly confirmed being in a relationship. The actress however refused to disclose who she is has been seeing secretly in recent times. Femi Jacobs and Rita acted in the ‘Meeting’ movie, but since then, there have been rumours of love affair between them. None of them has confirmed or deny this rumour. 2. Genevieve Nnaji/ D’Banj In 2010, Genevieve Nnaji, one of Nigeria's most notable actresses, made a grand appearance in D’banj’s ‘Fall In Love’ video. This fuelled a romance tale between the two bigwigs of the Nigerian showbiz scene especially because of a ‘passionate’ they both had at the end of the music video. Even D’Banj’s former ‘boss’, JJC, also known as Mr Skillz, reportedly said in an interview years ago that there was indeed a love flame burning between the two. "Let’s go this way, I will ignore Genevieve, she is (a) beauty, she is amazing but I don’t want to share my brother’s ex, it’s very controversial for that reason its better I’m the first taker. She loved him like crazy but dude got other plans," the singer had said on a radio show a time ago. Genevieve is a 35 with a teenage daughter, while D’banj is 34. 3. Freda Francis/Iyanya It is no longer a rumour that Iyanya is dating Freda for almost a year now. Although the ‘Mr Oreo’ crooner has kept the relationship on a low-key following the messy end of his relationship with Ghanaian actress, Yvonne Nelson, he still attends public functions with the woman after his heart. 4. Ken Erics/ Rachael Okonkwo Fast-rising Nollywood actress, Rachael Okonkwo, isn’t a household name yet, but the fair-skinned thespian has all the trappings of a big star in the making: beauty, brains and the talent. It was speculated that the ‘Nkoli Nwa Nsukka’ star has been ruffling bed sheets with Ken Erics, a famous actor in Nigeria. The rumour spurred after some cosy pictures of the two in a compromising position surfaced online. It was more like their pre-wedding photos, but their fans took it like something more than normal was going on between them.

MASSOB members protesting This statement is coming on the heel of allegation made by former president Olusegun Obasanjo that the struggle for actualization of Republic of Biafra had been converted to an avenue to defraud unsuspecting members of the public. A faction of the movement which is opposed to the leadership of Ralph Uwazuruike, said that he(Uwazuruike) is trying to frustrate the struggle for the independence of Biafra. The movement made this accusation while reacting to statement credited to Obasanjo that the struggle was dead. The factional MASSOB explained that some ‘bad eggs’ within the struggle had turned it into a business venture. Uchenna Madu, a factional national director of information, in a signed statement noted the determined ones were still committed to the cause stating Biafran struggle remains a genuine movement. The factional spokesman addes that Nnamdi Kanu, who is the leader of Independent People of Biafra (IPOB) and director of Biafra Radio was committed to the actualization of a Biafra state. Meanwhile, forty-four pro Biafra supporters who were arrested in connection with a protest by members of IPOB, in Port Harcourt had been remanded in prison by a Magistrate Court in Rivers state. They were part of hundreds who marched to show solidarity for the Biafran Radio Director, Nnamdi Kanu, who was arrested by the Department of State Services. Source: naij.com

If there is one politician who has been very vocal recently, then that would be Ben Murray-Bruce, a Senator from Bayelsa State in the National Assembly. The Silverbird Group boss have been speaking on issues of national importance lately though he has been bashed sometimes for his views, but that has not stopped him in anyway. He is quick to air his views on social media, especially on Twitter, which has made some people to dub him a Twitter Senator. He recently vented his anger on the slow pace of work by this present administrating. Murray-Bruce said, “You can only blame your predecessor for your problems for so long. After six months, so long becomes too long! six months is 1/8 of a four year tenure. If you are still blaming your predecessor after six months, when are you going to ever deliver the goods? Blaming others is a sign of helplessness. A leader should not blame. He must take responsibility for leading us out of troubled waters.” He also urged advisers of President Muhammadu Buhari to make hay while the sun shines and not “make blame while the sun shines.” The lawmaker also advised his critics to “go ahead and attack me, I don't mind. I am not the President or a Governor. I'm just a Nigerian who loves Muhammadu Buhari, enough to tell him the truth! www.nigeriafilms.com/news/36847/24/murray-bruce-warns-buhari-to-stop-blame-game.html

Speaking at a press conference in Abuja today, ex-Naija Delta Minister Godsday Orubebe, who is being charged to the Code of Conduct Tribunal, declared that he had never demanded and collected a bribe throughout his six-year sojourn as a minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. He said: “I was served with Code of Conduct Tribunal summons on Friday last week and the paper, which I personally signed and collected stated that I was expected to appear before them on November the ninth. “I was taken aback by the news that I had already been arraigned. This tells me that it is an issue of witch hunt which is not good for this country. It is not good to take me to the public court before being tried. “The issues contained in the summons are that I took N50 million bribe from one of the contractors who handled a project for the ministry of Niger Delta and another N20 million from the same contractor as well as not declaring my plots of land in Asokoro and Kyame districts of Abuja.” Source: www.naijagists.com/jonathans-friend-godsday-orubebe-in-cct-corruption-net-over-n50million-contract-fraud-undeclared-assets/

Whose report should we believed? An explosive 25 minute video accredited to the indefinable Boko Haram leader, Sheikh Abubakar Shekau, has refuted the claims of the nation’s military that it made tremendous gains in the fight to defeat the terror group in Nigeria’s Northeast. The video which was a mixture with Arabic and Hausa languages said the military was untruthful when they give information about confiscating the territories. “The military lied when it said they have confiscated our arms and that we have been chased out of our territories, or that we are in disarray. We are alive. I am alive. This is my voice, more audible than it was before,” Shekau declared. The leader also described President Muhammadu Buhari as a liar staged to deceive Nigerians. “Buhari is a liar and has deceived Nigerians. The Army spokesman is also lying. He and his foot soldiers always run whenever we come face to face with them at the battle grounds,” and he also mocked the president by saying: “Buhari, you once claimed that you will crush us in three months. How can you crush us?” But the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lieutenant General Tukur Buratai, had over the weekend said “the military has recovered all territories previously under the terrorist control.” Source:www.nigeriafilms.com/news/36755/71/explosive-new-boko-haram-video-rebuke-military-vic.html Written by BENEDICTA BASSEY/NEWSTRACK
