This is why Dickson want them to operate fully under the party and not the poorly coordinated movement we have been used to.

Wrong...the money isn't in a personal account. Read to understand her role .
I have already responded to this in other posts.

The said presidential aspirant I used as example also didn't put the money in personal accounts but benefited from it.

I fully did, which is why I began my responding comment with a 'maybe'

I'm also a bit suspicious of the way the story was told. Something is wrong with the way things were done, for a perm sec to be arguing the way she did.
Clearly you understood nothing beyond the narrative in your head. And that is fine.

Maybe it was, but knowing how many civil servants have gone to jail because of some signature they applied, approving release of funds that then turned out to get k-leg, i ain't surprised.

And anyway, just submit the thing , get the signature, and go. That's all there is. It is only if they had submitted the thing and she was refusing to give signature, that we would have considered your opinon on this matter.
Apparently you understand nothing in the OP or in my post.

I read it and the report also said they did not explain or present their request in the presentation the submitted.
Didn't they tell Tinubu before he approved it too...
Multiple sources told PREMIUM TIMES that the permanent secretary’s demand was contrary to established civil service procedures, raising suspicions that there may have been an ulterior motive behind her action.

Baba leave that aspect. I read the OP before posting.

These folks have means way above your pay grade.

The money don't need to be in a person account for it to be mismanaged.

Jaysus...you did not read the article.

Monies like that aren't paid into personal accounts. If they were, there would have been a massive scandal.
Just like the then minister for disaster and humanitarian affairs ba that was holding onto various funds and delaying disbursements until after COVID that she became totally uncontrollable.

I wonder why she's in efcc custody today.

I did read the OP but if you look at the way these people are supposed to operate, her excuse makes no sense.

She is trying to help the system but the system needs higher accountability help for which the higher CEO has no business with.
She most likely kept the money in an account to accrue interest for her personal gain.

Much like a presidential aspirant I will not be naming.

He had been to other west African countries and was yet to encounter trains. Seems many of them don't even have.

That's why he was surprised. He explained himself before you go begin imply say he was trying to be racist or something.
Politics › Re: We Enacted Pension Reform Act 2004, Stop Shadow Chasing, Atiku Tells Tinubu by sonofthunder: 11:39am On Jul 25
Ofunaofu:
seunmsg, sometimes I genuinely wonder how you reason.

The Pension Reform Act was enacted in 2004 under the Obasanjo administration, when Atiku was Vice President. That administration left office in 2007. Since then, Nigeria has had three presidents, Yar'Adua, Jonathan, and Buhari, before Tinubu. Curiously, neither you nor the APC blamed any of those administrations for the shortcomings you're now attributing to Atiku.

Now that Tinubu is president, your argument suddenly becomes, Atiku enacted the law but failed to implement it. If implementation is your standard, why did you skip the three presidents after 2007 when Atiku as vice president left office?

Stop this ridiculous lame games its becoming stale
Why didn't Atiku and Obasanjo implement it?

Investment › Re: Private School Teachers. by sonofthunder: 5:05am On Jul 21
Verami:
As a private school teacher without pension or retirement benefits, how can one save for future purposes? What is the best savings account?
The question best savings plan is a little weird.

Do you teach in a good private school that pays okay?

You can open a pension account yourself and maybe put in money for yourself from now against retirement. The money compounds with time but it significantly depends on your contribution.

You can also approach people like Leadway, Stanbic IBTC and talk to their advisors about their different long term high yield savings and investments that they have. But ensure to ask questions and take note of conditions.
Business › Re: Dollar Sale Dispute: Fuel Marketers Suspend Dangote Petrol Loading As FG Interve by sonofthunder: 12:24pm On Jul 20
Micolikes:
Petroleum marketers have temporarily suspended large-scale fuel loading from the Dangote Petroleum Refinery following the company's decision to begin selling petroleum products in U.S. dollars. The move has created uncertainty in Nigeria's downstream oil sector, prompting the Federal Government to step in to monitor the situation and seek a resolution.

Although some marketers expressed concerns that fuel loading had slowed significantly, the Dangote Refinery dismissed reports that operations had stopped, insisting that product loading is continuing at its Lekki facility.

According to industry stakeholders, many marketers have adopted a wait-and-see approach as they seek clarity on the refinery's new pricing structure. They are also monitoring the arrival of imported petroleum products before making fresh purchases, fearing they could buy at current prices only for market rates to decline shortly afterward.

The National Publicity Secretary of the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN), Chinedu Ukadike, explained that marketers are relying on existing fuel stocks purchased at previous prices while closely watching market developments. He noted that uncertainty over future crude supply and the pricing of imported petrol has made many dealers cautious about placing new orders.

With the Federal Government now involved, industry players hope a resolution will be reached soon to prevent any disruption to fuel supply or unexpected changes in pump prices.

Do you think the Federal Government's intervention will resolve the dispute quickly, or could this situation lead to another increase in fuel prices? Share your thoughts in the comments.

All these just to delay and distract us from the need for fuel prices to come down drastically.

He served just three years. And he happened that he was well behaved and had really saved his oga in many business deals. As we speak,he traveled to bring his oga's goods abroad.
Okay... Maybe there's another news source I'm unaware of

Where did they state it was 3 years?

Most time you serve for 5 - 10 years. 3 years is very minimal and less likely except in skills apprentriship.

Adeleke has been improving on road infrastructure even in the villages. It seems many people will rather have him than go back to the half salary era.

If he wins, he has to work harder on agro-industrial development and other basic facilities like water, light, hospitals and upgrading of schools.
Are you based in Osun or get to visit frequently?
Politics › Re: Mary Habila's Father, Tanko Habila Wisdom Swears Affidavit, Says No To Autopsy by sonofthunder: 4:50pm On Jul 16
FSBoperator:
This is nonsense.

A 26y old just doesn't die suddenly.

An autopsy must be conducted and a death certificate issued citing the cause of death as determined by the autopsy.
I'm not saying there was no foul play but people 26 and younger can die suddenly. Only thing is improved healthcare has made it significantly rarer.
Health › Re: Before You Wash Another Plate, Read This About Your Kitchen Sponge by sonofthunder: 6:11pm On Jul 10
PharmaTimesng:
Most people think expired food or dirty water is the biggest health risk in the kitchen. Surprisingly, scientists say one of the dirtiest items is something many of us use every day, and that is the kitchen sponge.

Researchers have found that used kitchen sponges can harbour billions of bacteria, making them an ideal breeding ground for microorganisms because they are constantly warm, wet, and filled with tiny food particles.

The scary part? A sponge can look and even smell clean while still carrying enough germs to spread bacteria from one plate to another, from cups to spoons, and even to a baby's feeding bowl.

To reduce the risk:
• Wash your sponge thoroughly after use.
• Squeeze out excess water.
• Let it dry completely.
• Replace it regularly.
• Consider using a dish brush, which dries faster and may harbour fewer bacteria.

Permit me to ask one uncomfortable question: How old is your kitchen sponge?
What if you bath the sponge with boiling hot water? Does it help my young sire?
