Very Ridiculous, unintelligent and baseless post.

Mehn, dis thing too long. But sentiments aside, the decision of Jonathan to contest the elections and the party presenting him as the sole candidate of the party without primaries is the root cause of PDP problems.

if it is about to meetings, I think he knows what the position entails.

This girl keeps on telling Nigerians how dumb she is.

Sometimes, I can't help but weep at people's foolishness. They aren't airing it on any terrestial station, they never made it mandatory for u to watch it. If you no wan watch AIT sheybi, you will watch ChannelsTV. Oga go n find something better to do jare

But wasn't this man making money before he became a governor? Just asking tho

It is not just by apologising to affected Nigerians, it is by taking steps and making sure such things doesn't happen again.

And i'll him? "Did you give yourself life? So you don't have the right to take you own life"

Nothing concerns me as long as it doesn't bring indomie back to 50naira, egg back to 30naira, coke back to 50naira, toothpaste back to 200naira etc.

But did Reno lie?? Hausa/Fulanis acting like the herds they push around. Osinbajo seems to be doing a better job.

The Nigerian Army should check the excesses of military officers, most are acting like thug and for the right price used as thugs.

Baba, y'all in River states were indicted, both ruling and opposition.

So so phone calls to individuals in his caucus. If na phone calls, call independent TV stations or radio stations and let Nigerians hear him speak.

Coming to deny it without any proof? So we should just digest it because you all have sold, an "incorruptible Buhari" to Nigerians.

Any luck with the questions? I got an invite too

Wow!!! Very sad but true. There are some people out there that find acceptance is places they never thought of. I really don't blame her, the world has dealt her a serious blow.

I laugh when you people blindly/in ignorance blame the current government for the woes of the naira. What would the government have done? Our only source of forex the oil has lost more than 50% of it value and you expect naira to do better than it is currently doing?

Isn't you lot that specalise in praising and defending corrupt elements? When only one person hid over 9 million dollars and you expect us not to have scarcity? Imagine the amount of dollars that has been stolen by the polithievians?

The situation of the naira is not rock science. Those of us who use their heads knew the value of the naira under GEJ was artificial. And we also know that wi dwindling oil prices, the naira can only be battered.

No one is defending anyone here. It's simple logic, u think it's becos people are hiding dollars that's what is making the naira nose dive? Even if effc gets all d dollars that was looted back into the coffers of the government without sound policies, we'll still remain in this position if not worse.

SmartMugu:
Don't blame the TSA for the points you mentioned here. TSA is actually a smart move by the current administration even though they failed in many other areas.

He never said the TSA isn't a good idea, why do you think it wasn't implemented by Jonathan even when it was an idea from his administration? It was becos of the effect it would have. He only suggested a gradual withdrawal of the funds away from banks not an outright withdrawal which we can all see d effect.

I laugh when people keep accusing the previous administration of the continuous crashing of the naira. I ask, for close to two years of dis government in power, have they made any move to stop d free fall of the naira. At this point, by December the naira would just be as Ghana cedes back then

EFCC tracks N388.3b London-Paris Club refunds

Consultants ‘got 2%’

Governors ‘shared 3%’

Seven governors have questions to answer in the alleged diversion of part of the N388.304billion London-Paris Club refunds into two accounts opened by the Nigeria Governors Forum (NGF), The Nation has
learnt.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has uncovered N19billion in one of the accounts. The other is a domiciliary account, which contains a yet unspecified amount of money.
One of those invited for interrogation has admitted handing over a huge sum of money to a principal officer of the National Assembly after changing it into dollars, according to the preliminary report on the management of the refunds.

According to a source, who pleaded not to be named because he is not permitted to talk to the media, EFCC detectives discovered that while about 2% of the funds was paid to consultants who allegedly assisted in computing what was due to each state, 3% was shared by some governors under “curious circumstances”.
The source said: “The detectives have uncovered the two accounts opened in the name of the NGF and the signatories to same.
“We are looking into circumstances behind such huge deposits from London-Paris Club refunds into these accounts.
“The payment of 2% of the refunds to consultants and 3% to some governors which was rated as “curious” by investigators have been confirmed. We also discovered that some of the governors nominated these consultants.”
The source declined to name the seven governors, stressing that the details will be released as soon as the investigation is concluded.

Responding to a question, the source said one of those questioned actually admitted that he changed some of the funds into dollars and handed it over to a principal officer of the National Assembly.
Besides, he insisted that the EFCC had no any agenda against the governors, adding: “It has no basis to run the NGF down at all, but you should know that the Presidency is interested in how these London-Paris Club refunds were spent.

“We know the governors have immunity, but certainly NGF does not enjoy such constitutional protection. We are looking at what informed the transfer of such funds into the accounts of the NGF and for what purposes.
“Once the purposes are in line with statutory financial regulations and the EFCC is satisfied, the case is closed. But where there are cases of diversion and stealing of public funds, the law will take its course.”
The Federal Government released N388.304billion of the N522.74 billion funds to 35 states as refunds of overdeductions on London-Paris Club loans.

[b]States on top of the list with huge reimbursements are those controlled by the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) contrary to their claims of being oppressed by the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.
[/b]The big earners are Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa, Rivers, Delta, Katsina, Kaduna, Lagos, Imo, Jigawa, Borno, Niger, Bauchi,and Benue.
Only Kano State and the FCT did not benefit from the reimbursement.
Ondo was only paid 50 per cent of its refunds (N6,513,392,932.28) because of leadership change in the state which will soon lead to the inauguration of the Governor-elect, Mr Rotimi Akeredolu.
A breakdown of the list of top beneficiaries of the refunds is as follows:
Akwa Ibom – N14,500,000,000.00;
Bayelsa – N14,500,000,000.00; Delta—N14,500,000,000.00;
Katsina -N14,500,000,000.00;
Lagos – N14,500,000,000.00;
Rivers-N14,500,000,000.00;
Kaduna – N14,362,416,363.24;
Borno-N13,654,138,849.49;
Bauchi – N12,792,664,403.93;
Benue – N12,749,689,453.61; Sokoto—N11,980,499,096.97;
Osun– N11,744,237,793.56;
Anambra– N11,386,281,466.35;
Edo– N11,329,495,462.04;
Cross River – N11,300,139,741.28;
Kogi – N11,211,573,328.19; and
Kebbi – N11,118,149,054.10.

The Federal Government reached a conditional agreement to pay 25% of the amounts claimed, subject to a cap of N14.5 billion to any given state.
Balances due thereafter will be revisited when fiscal conditions improve.
“Mr. President’s overriding concern is for the welfare of the Nigerian people. considering the fact that many States are owing salaries and pension, causing considerable hardship,” the government said.
THE NATION had exclusively reported that the presidency was uncomfortable with the funds management by governors.
A source in the Presidency, who spoke in confidence, said: “President Muhammadu Buhari has lived up to his pledge to ease salary crises in all the states by releasing N388.304billion to 35 states.

“The agreement between the Federal Government and the governors was very clear. While 50 per cent of the amount released shall be used to offset outstanding salary and pension arrears, the remaining 50 per cent would be used for the payment of other obligations.
“Some governors have however reneged on this agreement. Security reports available to the Presidency showed that Governor Ayodele Fayose paid only one month out of eight-month salary arrears.
“The governor went ahead to pay a curious 13-month salary to Ekiti workers. Yet, he got N8.877billion refund.
“Instead of accounting for what he used the loan refund for, he attacked the Federal Government on hardship in the country. The relevant agencies are monitoring development in Ekiti and some states.”

Responding to a question, another source in government said: “It is however unfortunate that some governors underdeclared the refunds made to them. Some of them were also discovered to be giving spurious analysis to cover up the actual figures.
“In fact, some states changed the agreement overnight. A state said the President asked states to use at least 25 per cent of their London and Paris Club refuns to offset salary arrears.”

I am really trying to understand the rationale behind the bold part. Are they already roping in the governors of the PDP controlled states? Cos I am not understanding

Smh.... and some people will say Fayose n Wike are inconsequential. I laugh

Hehehe... $250million? I laugh.

A proper audit would reveal that not even 10% of that money was used for the purpose it was meant for.

Ermmm... so what have you guys been telling him? That he should stay put over there, that Nigerians that are complaining about him missing in action can go to hell bah?? These people just dey take Nigerians for granted sha.

Becos he's a PDP chieftain, it is already political but if one morufu in one of the shanties drinks acid or hangs himself, it is depression or condition. Some people commenting above me should grow brains, if they can't, they should use their kidney instead.

To those saying Ambode deserves it, i'm not try to say Ambode isn't working, believe me I know he is, I really do like him. Obiano is like rebuilding Anambra all over again while Ambode is like making better the good things that were already on ground.

Zombies won't like this

So you think it is so terrible to pay people only based on how much good business they can deliver? You think a real job is one which someone shows up in the office everyday, and gets paid at the end of the month, even if their productivity is zero.

My dear, when you start running your own business, you will revisit these questions.

I'm a graduate of Insurance and I own a business, so I know what i'm talking about

Employees start reporting that ur wicked Boss u know is getting fat on illegal money and get rich on his sorry A*s

Insurance marketing isn't a job. A job that is strictly commission based so without bringing any good business, you're worst off than people sitting at home without a job because u keep spending ur own money lookin for business without any reimbursement by the Insurance company.

This is just very sad. It has now become a popularity contest. We are shouting good governance and fulfilling campaign promises while some just want to test of Buhari is still popular. I weep for my country. One politician is surely financing this crap

When he talks, they'll say his mouth is smelling. He raised a valid point, questions Nigerians should be asking but NO, most have chosen to attack him without any valid argument to counter the issue he raised.

Youths of nowadays tho, old men dey use una future dey joke and una still dey shout APC n PDP. I really hope there'll be a tomorrow for us to lead.

Hmmm. Una dey forget Jesus Embassy n Iya Pato porridge. Then words skreps, "Risky Burger", "Chicken n Chips".

Then that Unilag light that makes ugly girls look fine at night. "Do not approach any girl under that light, you might regret it the following day".

Access Bank, Yem Yem, Ozolua, High Rise n Ransom Kuti. . Haters keep hating
