vingeophysicist:
Ifeanyi okowa please don't be distracted by those Apc zombies ,who are bent on destroying your good work. But how can a Nigerian newspaper just post wrong information on crucial issues like these. Really ApC rat are really working very hard to destroy pdp government.

It is absolutely devastating, I don't even understand it.

Delta Govt Refutes Report On Federation Account Allocation


The Delta State Government has refuted the contents of a front page publication in one of the national newspapers on June 13, 2016, which supposedly gave details of grand total
of Federation Account Allocation to States and Local Government Councils (LGCs) from May 2015 to June 2016.


A press release signed by the state Commissioner for Information, Mr. Patrick Ukah, described the publication as untrue.



The report wrongly stated that Delta State got N144, 706, 571, 893.61 from May 2015 to June 2016 instead of N88, 271, 852, 589.55 that the state actually received.


According to the press release, the period covered gave the impression that FAAC receipts for June 2016 had been received by June, 13, 2016. This is incorrect because the FAAC meeting for June 2016 which approves release of fund for the month was held on
June 21, 2016 and funds for that month were received on June 27, 2016 by Delta State Government.


The press release revealed that the report failed to distinguish what accrued to the State Government from what was allocated to LGCs, a separate tier of Government. It went further to state the total figures, which ignored deductions at source from the gross allocation, thereby giving impression that the entire amount accrued and were released to the State.


According to the press release, 'for the purpose of keeping the records straight, we state that for the one-year period of the administration of His Excellency, Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa, the financial summary of FAAC
receipts from June 1, 2015 to May 31, 2016 is as follows: Gross Allocation: N111, 642, 776, 745.82, Deductions: Bonds, Foreign And Local Loans And Refunds To FAAC: (23, 370, 924, 156. 27), Net Allocation To Delta State: N88, 271, 852, 589.55, Allocation To Local Government Councils: N28, 561, 041, 308.32'.


From the analysis of funds allocated to Delta State for the period of June 1, 2015 to May 31, 2016, as shown above, it is obvious that Delta State got N88, 271, 852, 589.55 and not
N144, 706, 571, 893.61 as contained in the report, the press release added

NIGERIA: GREAT NATION, GOOD PEOPLE!!
THINGS YOU DO NOT KNOW ABOUT NIGERIA.
You may already know that Nigeria is the largest black nation in the world and the most populous nation in Africa.
You may already know that Nigeria has great dependency on crude oil, plus all the other opinions of David Cameron. Here are 20 unpopular facts about Nigeria.
1. Are you aware that all over the world Nigerians are setting the pace and becoming the standard by which others measure themselves? Do you know??
2. In the US, Nigerians are the most educated immigrant community. Type it into Google and you'll see it. Not one of the most educated, the most educated.
3. 60% of Nigerians in the US have college degrees. This is far above the American national average of 30%.
4. Nigerians in US are one of the highest earners, typically earning 25% more than the median US income of $53k.
5. In Ivy League schools in Europe and America, Nigerians routinely outperform their peers from other nations.
6. A Nigerian family, The Imafidon family, have officially been named the smartest family in the UK.
7. The designer of the famous car, Chevrolet Volt, Jelani Aliyu, is a super talented Nigerian from Sokoto State.
9. The wealthiest Black man and woman on earth are Nigerians, Aliko Dangote and Mrs. Folorunsho Alakija. Both have no trace of criminal record of any kind.
10. South Africa couldn't have ended apartheid & achieved Black rule if not for the leadership role Nigeria played.
11. Of the 3 South African Presidents who ruled after apartheid, two of them once lived in Nigeria under asylum. Both Nelson Mandela (60s) and Thabo Mbeki (70s) lived in Nigeria before becoming President of South Africa. We gave financial support, human support, boycotted an Olympics and our politicians, musicians and activists campaigned relentlessly.
12. Nigeria spent over $3 Billion and lost hundreds of soldiers to end the wars in both Liberia and Sierra Leone which the world ignored because they have no oil.

13. When there was a coup in São Tomé and Príncipe in 2003, Nigeria restored the elected President back to power.
14. Before there were street lights in European cities, ancient Benin kingdom had street lights fueled by palm oil.
15. 500 years ago, Benin casted metal alloys to create magnificent art including the world famous Queen Ida Mask.
16. Amina was a warrior queen who ruled Zaria Emirate in Kaduna state, Northwestern Nigeria 400 years ago in 1610. Google and see what she means to Africa.
17. We gave monetary gifts to Ireland during our oil boom and built a statue for France free of charge. We are not poor blacks. Nigeria is rich and don't be lied to.
18. The first television station in Africa was NTA Ibadan (1960) long before Ireland has their RTE station. =========
Wherever you look in this great country, Nigeria, heroes abound both now and in our recent and ancient past.
If all you do is listen to mainstream Western media, you'll not get the full picture of your Nigerian heritage.
Do not listen to any leader who says Nigerians are criminals, no matter who he is, or his height and position.
We're not a nation of scammers, drugs & corruption, but a people with a verifiable track record of greatness. ==========
Here is what CNN, BBC, Aljezeera and western media will not tell you about Nigerians:
19. On the 7th May, 2016 at Howard University in Washington D.C history was made. Out of 96 graduating Doctor of Pharmacy candidates, 43 of them were Nigerians and out of 27 awards given, 16 went to Nigerians.

They will only tell you how Nigerians are scammers and cheats, how Nigerians are into drugs overseas et al.
If you don't blow your trumpet, no one will blow it for you. VIVA NAIJA!!!
20. There are over 180,000,000 Nigerians world over and only less than 250,000 of this figure have traceable criminal records. This is about 0.14% of our entire national population in the last 20 years: nothing close to 1%. Shame on global media.
Listen Nigeria, dont let anybody woo you into believing that you are a criminal just because you are a Nigerian. Nigerians are NOT criminals. You are NOT a criminal. You are topnotch; second to none around the world. Be proud of Nigeria wherever you go. Take out your Passport with pride.
Be proud of our GREEN HERITAGE. Be enthusiastic of our FUTURE GREATNESS #CelebrateYourNigerianness!
NIGERIA: GREAT NATION, GOOD PEOPLE!!!! If you truly believe, kindly add anything else that you remember about Nigerians and the greatness of Nigeria!
