The objective is to make her retire as a Perm Sec.......the most senior civil service post. That way, she will be entitled to a fat pension and gratuity when she eventually retires. These people are so greedy.....the money she's stealing as first lady is not enough. She wants to insure her future. God is watching....and when his wrath comes on ALL of them, they will be consumed.

Exactly my thought.................God is watching oooooooooooooooooo

Jarus: Bros, which year were in farfaru? You may have been my room mate.

2007 batch B bros............was eventually posted to KATAMI in SILAME LG

Pls some one shd give us more of these old lovely notes
lovely days...........
and so sad........................

GboyegaD: Can you tell me what the problem is with Garri and Beans? I truly do not know the quality of the food but one thing I have learnt is that people often times complained of the food served at camps because of their high expectations. At my time of service, NYSC wasn't so prepared and you needed to see how terrible the quality of our kit was yet the food was not as bad as people portrayed it because I ate if most times and now that they have improved in terms of planning I want to believe the quality of the meals too must have improved and if it hasn't thank God you still have food to eat. Remember, your mission is to render your own service to the nation.

Oga Gov Advocate....do u actually know what the Gov is claiming to be spending on feeding in camp for Corps member ?
My concern is not just abt the food bros......but what the Government is claiming to be spending on the food ?
If what is being served is what the Government provide, nothing do us now............but the corruption that goes on around feeding these guys.
Hv read a lot of these comment and i felt so sorry for our mentality.
Must we always accept any rubbish that comes our way
cant we hv some self respect
am sure if we are to camp some undergraduates from UK in NIGERIA for a particular camping activity, we will be falling on our selfs to serve the BEST
When our we going to get to the point of respecting our serves
Kai na wa for us o

i was at the FARFARU CAMP some yrs back in SOKOTO.........Poor food, bad water, rubbish matRASH, plenty almanjiri to steal your items......
Now working, i got to know that it is costing the Federal Government N1.2m to keep a CORPS MEMBER for the one yr of service...(this was b4 JONAH push allawe go 19k).

Simple analysis shows that a corps member collect 9750 x 12 = 117,000

This leaves about N 1,083,000 for things like KIT and CAMPING

Pls can someone educate me more why the kits are dat poor (my white tennis did not last for a week), and the food on camp that bad ?

anyway, a little ALUTA on camp brought some change of mind from those hungry NYSC officials sha o

God will hv to help NIger.........

We don bad , no be today

Thanks a lot, v been looking for this, Have a great solem assembly

PapaBrowne I WAS ON THAT ROAD YESTERDAY NINE HOURS ON A SPOT

Am sure dat is your propagada ba ?

Na wa oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I reaaly pity EKO ILE onthis one

Sinachay or whaterver ya name is u don try


So sad that there is nothing u can do for a man who is bent on being blind to see

most of you guys posting comment ion this tread, with no aopology, U ARE ALL BLIND TO REASONING

Eko Ile and a few others are only wasting thier time trying to educate you folks

You are just a bunch of idiots who have never achieve anything in life but take pleasure in running down those who are putting better efforts.


None of u have been to ant of the four maternity centers nor the ones in Britain or SA, yet u talk as if they were in your compound.


So sad that Most of us in Nigeria like talking for talking sake, well may be that compensate for our inability to be useful.

One idiot was even comparing Lagos State government effort to Red Cross effort in SA; on which platform, can u compare their sources of revenue ?

Am sure Mr SINACHAY has never been of any use to his community, yet you are so good in talking.

Pls lets grow up to be more educative in analysis and not just talk for talking sake


If u no get too much for upstairs, u can just read and not post comment pls


NL is becoming too cheap for a lot of imbecilic comment

aloy/emeka:
You are right that I don't have facts and figures just like I don't have facts and figures in the case of IBB, Abacha, Nnamani, Ibori, Odili, etc. Marwa ruled Lagos for few years and floated an airline afterwards; when asked how he made his money, he claimed to have Israeli investors. How did he make the initial deposit remains a big question today. Telling me that Tinubu do not have billions is like telling us that Abacha is secretly living somewhere in Lebanon.

So it is okay to steal from the government as long as you don't leave a paper trail.

tHANKS JO Eko Ile, for educating this my friend alloy


Alloy, there is a field called investigative jornalism, pls lunch ya self into it and stop peddling rumour

na_so:
Person wey don die still dey commit suicide? o boy u funny o. Sylva is history anyway you look at it.


May Bayelsa never encounter any misfortune like sylva again. Ameeeeeeeen

Boy no b say u just funny, u funny die, So Silifa don die hahahahahahahahahahahaah

aloy/emeka:
Tinubu's name was cleared by the tribunal  is what they are gonna tell you but what hey can't explain is how Tinubu managed to make the money to float an airline. Tinubu not only stole billions from Lagos state but he continues to siphon more money out through 3rd party service companies he floated here and there.  Allegedly, Gbenga Daniel[another possible crook by the way] defied Tinubu when he refused to award Ogun contracts to Tinubu owned companies and Tinubu swore to kill him.
There is no doubt in my mind that the tribunal was paid heavily and people are shamelessly celebrating the acquittal of an embezzlement  icon. It is like the people of Bayelsa calling Obasanjo names and rioting  because he ensured that Alameighsiyaa got arrested to exporting his loot overseas. We continue to celebrate corruption in Nigeria and the chains will continue to hold us down unless we are ready to say the truth even if it is our father or twin sibling who is being accused of corruption.

Alloy/emeka or whatever u chose to b called

the main problem with people like u is that, u believe everone must be a crook to make a living

i bet u are not better than these politicians u are mentioning


comon grow up there are lot of honest means to make money, even in government

u are only suspecting, like most nigerians always do, u do not v fact and figure

aloy/emeka:
Foreign account or not, how did Asiwaju make his billions?. From his job as Mobil accountant?.

That is not the point, the point is lets talk like literate people; let me ask u >

How did u know Tinubu has billions ? are u his account officer ? can u prove it ?

am sure u wiill b quik to point at the airline, which u do not know how much of consortium or loans are involved ?

lets grow up and stop being petty.

am not saying the man is clean, BUT WE ARE YET TO HV THE FACTS TO NAIL HIM

UNTIL THEN LETS ACT CIVIL.


IF U DON NOT KNOW:


THE Prosecutor SAYS;

the man has f/a

they also says though Asiwaju did not use them when He was Governor

also that he open the accounts b/f He became Governor

so how can u crucify a man for having Foreing account only

Na wa o. why is it dat every issue on NL always end up in tribal war and name calling ? kai ?

Any way Mr Beaf, dat case was thrown out of COCB yesterday for lack of merit

COC says that the prosecutors could not even establish a PRIMA FACIE  case against ASIWAJU

Aside that, it is also very sad that, WE ARE MAKING NOISE THAT A MAN WHO WAS AN ACCOUNTANT WITH MOBIL HAS FOREIGN ACCOUNT.

NOT THAT HE USES THE ACCOUNT TO STEAL MONEY O, BUT DAT HE HAS IT.

NOT EVEN THAT THE ACCOUNT WAS OPERATIONAL DURING THE TIME HE WAS GOVERNOR,

MAY BE IF SOME PPLE KNOW WHAT IT TAKES TO OPEN F/A, U WILL KNOW WHY D MAN NO CLOSE THEM JUST COS HE WAS GOVERNOR

ABEG, make una talk better matter jooooooooooooooooooo

So Igbos or Ibos (whichever is applicable) really love IKEMBA ? so funny the love is so strong he lost all elective post in the EAST (Probably to Hausas or Yoruba)

Or it the north or south who prevented the east from electing him senetors since 1993 ?

I really appreciate all what IKEMBA stood for it is so sad we are yet to comprehend them.

The same vultures who are now trying to relate with his corpes never believed in him politicaly.

Which way NIGERIA ?

The same problem Awolowo suffered in the hands of his tribe b4 they turned his burial to carnival

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Nigeriaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Na only to use mouth fight people we no c on top NL na hin we know

Grow uppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp

Abeg, pls na true say dem dom comot IBRO from Kogi ?

Madam that post this story,


Like me give u my personal experience

I was admitted into a nigerian university to study Agric. Engineering, but for some reasons i had to drop out after 500 level (funny abi ?)

i roam the street o Lagos for about 3 yrs with all sort of thought going thru my mind

but i eventually decide to take another WAEC & JAMB and God was faithful

am writing this from the confines of my office as an accounting graduate (in fact am almost concluding my ACA and M.Sc )

sO am telling you that, there is hope for your son, he just need the following;

1) He need to know God
2)He need to discover that life can go worse for him if he did not take a decision to move forward now
3) He need love but he should not be pampered
4)He need a good friend seriously
5) He really need to run away from self pity ( no one put him in this shoes now, he did that himself so he need to face it)
6) He may really need a counselor


u may want to communicate with me, u can mail me

sto_miracle@yahoo.com

i will be expecting u

una no dey believe anything, is dat what u wuold v done ?

ABUJA – Clerk of the House of Representatives, Mr Mohammed Sani-Omolori, Wednesday, told an Abuja High Court sitting at Apo that he warned the embattled former Speaker, Dimeji Bankole, against securing loans for the enhancement of the “running costs” and “welfare packages” of members of the 6th session of the lower House, without recourse to due process.

Omolori, who testified before the trial court as the fourth principal witness of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, insisted that though the 2010 budget of the House specifically made provision for the allocation of N27.5 million to each member, per quarter, the lawmakers, however, unilaterally agreed to increase the amount to N42 million.



He told the court that sequel to perceived delay in the release of N60 billion which, he said, was originally apportioned to the 6th session of the House in the 2010 budget, its leadership under the two accused persons, Bankole and his erstwhile deputy, Usman Nafada, conceded to set up a 37-man committee to look into agitations from members for an increment in their welfare package.

Determined to convince the court on the veracity of his assertion, the clerk named all the principal members of the committee that met and approved the idea of sourcing loans from banks.

He said: “My lord, the funds for the day-to-day running of the House comes from budgetary allocations. The 1st accused, the then speaker, who was my direct boss, acted as the approving authority and had to approve all the expenditure for the House.

“Some time in March last year, the leadership of the House called an executive session briefing where they discussed about the import of the 2010 budget.

“Incidentally, my lord, it was the first executive meeting I was attending as the Clerk. There, all the executive members of the House were duly briefed and they expressed dissatisfaction with certain aspects of the budget, one of which was the issue of running cost.

“They advanced reasons why the leadership of the House had to agree with them and enhance the running cost and welfare package of all the members. In response, the leadership then considered that since they have done what ought to be done and the members wanted more, there was, therefore, need to set up a committee to look into the matter.

“My lord, this executive session was fully documented. The whole idea was that the running cost should be put in the said budget that was then in the offing, this is because at that time, the budget was only proposed but not passed.

Those at the session

“Those who attended the session were the two accused persons before this court, who were then the presiding officers of the House, as well as, eight other principal officers namely, the House leader, Mr. Tunde Akogun; Deputy House leader, Mr Baba Shehu; Chief Whip, Emeka Ihedioha; Deputy Chief Whip, Aminu Tambuwal; Minority leader, Ali Ndume; Deputy Minority leader, Abdulrahman Kawu; Minority Whip, Femi Gbajabiamila and Deputy Minority Whip, Bello Mutawale.

“After that 1st executive session, one week later, the 27-man committee tendered their report where they proposed all the enhancement they desired from the budget after which the House leadership asked them to bring the said report to me.

“Meanwhile, about four members of that group approached me, they did not come to discuss the rationale behind the sought increment, but to direct its immediate implementation.

“My lord, I promptly notified the then speaker (Bankole) who urged me to ensure that rules were followed to the letter. However, agitation from members became more serious. From that time till May 12, the House couldn’t even perform its constitutional duties as members insisted that they were either paid what they wanted or the leadership of the House would be sacked.

“The tension gave rise to a meeting that held at the Speaker’s guest house in Asokoro, where the situation on ground was exhaustively discussed.

“Guided by the fact that the entire demand falls within the N60 billion in the budget that was just passed at that time, the leadership decided to source for the fund through bank loan or the two other arms of the National Assembly i.e. the Senate or Management.

‘My advice was ignored’

“It was at this juncture that I wrote to the Speaker, raising concern about the fact that whatever we needed to do must be properly situated in the budget. A memorandum I minuted to the Speaker, said though the members were not working outside the budgetary allocation, the running cost was however not empirically provided for in the budget.

“My letter was ignored and the loan was subsequently obtained and members were duly paid the enhanced running cost even in arrears.”

The committee report and the memorandum were tendered and admitted into evidence by the court.

Besides, the witness told the court that neither of the two accused persons benefited from the said increment, adding that owing to their initial hesitance to okay the “welfare enhancement”, members of the House decided to punish them by insisting that the initial running cost of the speaker and his deputy be slashed to N100 million and N80 million, respectively.

Meanwhile, trial Justice Suleiman Belgore, adjourned the matter till today to enable the Clerk of the National Assembly, Alhaji Abubakar Salisu Maikasuwa and the Director of Finance of the National Assembly, Mr Bukoye Lasisi, to appear before the court as EFCC witnesses.

Though the trial judge summoned them to appear before him yesterday, the prosecuting counsel, Mr Festus Keyamo, who drew the attention of court to the sudden sack of the EFCC ex-chairman, Mrs Farida Waziri, said the witnesses, after agreeing to come to court that yesterday, reneged upon learning about the change in the leadership of the anti-graft agency.

Further hearing on the matter continues today.

It will be recalled that the accused persons are facing a 17-count charge that was preferred against them by the anti-graft agency.

EFCC had in the substantive charge before the court alleged that the accused persons, being entrusted with House of Representatives’ Account No. 00390070000018 with the United Bank of Africa, Plc and the Overhead Account of the House of Representatives with First Bank of Nigeria, Plc, properties of the Federal Government of Nigeria, dishonestly used the accounts to obtain loans totalling to about N40 billion.

It equally accused them of breaching public trust by agreeing to approve the allowances and ‘running costs’ of members of the 6th session of House of Representatives, in violation of the approved remuneration package for political, public and judicial office holders by the Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission, as well as, the extant Revised Financial Regulations of the Federal Government of Nigeria, 2009.

Look NL it has nothing to do with YORUBA, as one mumu is trying to claim, the orignal seven include a lot of non-yorubas, so tred with ya brain, anyway, i as much as am not an advocate of WOLE SOYINKA, who has obviously done better with his life than most of u online this moring, i just feel somebody need to find out the difference between CONFRATERNITY and CULTISM,

During OPUTA PANEL; Soyinka said and i quote "The Pyrate Confraternity has been expel from the SEA-DOG CONFRAT, for anti-confrta activities" . What Wole was a founding member at UI then is no longer what we hv now, just like NANS that has become a tool in the hands of politicians; just like everyother thing in Nigeria, a shadow of its former self (Nigeria Police, Federal Road Safety Corps, NYSC, Universities, Education, WAEC-who recently released fake result on its site, ) just name it.

So it is not an issue of Soyinka But NIGERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

God will help us

This whole thing is just too easy, but we believe God is on the throne, all those who are doing evil in the name of Politics in this country WILL DIE BY FIRE
