Stories from PDP fantasy times.

Take me to court! take me to court!

Metuh is such a disappointment to the army of corruption apologists who found in him a patron saint. Some even convinced themselves that a thief like him has dignity.

Last I heard, he was desperately trying to have his case reassigned from his classmate judge who didn't even have any memorable impression of him.

So Lere Olayinka agreed to work for a man who is a murderer by his own admission?

What if Lere Olayinka is privy to another Fayose sponsored murder plans? Would he report it to the police, or keep it to himself and start preparing a media rebuttal to anyone who would accuse Fayose subsequently?

Like Reuben Abati, like Lere Olayinka. Their pen of sound advocacy ceases when money is stuffed in their mouths.

The Igbo man's love for being the victim of any policy, agenda, encounter or story is legendary.

Kudos to the Signal for understanding the need of the Igbo man and feeding him like a junkie that he is, whether factual or not.

Jorussia:
As an unrepentant APC supporter, i don't see anything cheering about Ribadu's return to APC.I ceased to respect him,the day he moved to PDP.I held nuhu ribadu in high esteem,until he showed himself to be a greedy politician.In 2011 presidential election,i was the only person that voted for ribadu out of about 600 voters in my voting center.The governor (oshiomhole) gave an instruction to all ACN leaders in the state to mobilise their supporters for GEJ,i was the only ACN member that went against the governor's directive voting center. I respect buhari and tinubu for being a different breed of Nigerian politician

I believe Ribadu's reason for leaving was because Murtala Nyako of PDP was admitted into the APC and given the state party structure on a platter.

I am still disappointed that he had to decamp to a useless and criminal party like the PDP, but equally disappointed that the APC was to eager to accept anyone from the PDP and handed the party structure of their state. Like Saraki, like Dino, like Umana Umana, like Timipre Sylva.

But he (Fayose) surely needs more than mere press statements. For him to be seen as a Saul who has turned to Paul, Fayose must show penitence. He must visit the families of Tunde Omojola, Dr. Ayo Daramola, nine students of the College of Education, Ikere-Ekiti killed during a mere protest, the likes of Aseweje, Ben Ogundana, Dapo Osunniyi, Kamoru Folorunso, Ojo Sunday and several others that were visited with terror during the 2004 local council polls in Ilawe, Ogotun and Igbara-Odo to seek amnesty.

If only one can erase documented history.

Lere Olayinka would one day serve as prosecution witness in the prosecution of Fayose.

If my intuition serves me right, Lere Olayinka is the brain behind many of the negative revelations about the current Fayose administration.
He is close enough to Fayose, but also despises Fayose. He is a man on a mission, and would continue to put up a friendly facade until he has finished Fayose.

It is finished!

Adaure4ever, you don't have a case here, there's no way a tiny dot on the Nigerian map would be further broken into more states when there are bigger and more populated states in other regions.

Also other ethnicities also exist in regions that are considered unfamiliar to those tribes and would naturally swell the states tally of their natural ethnic region if their section of the present states they belong to was to be regrouped into their ethnic region.

If this is done, the SE would still lag behind in states count despite adding 1 more state from Delta. While the SW and NW would add 2 more and the NE with 7 now will add 1 more.

Would you not still lament the situation then?

Adaure4ever:
is Igbo territory found only in south east? Y do you love to bend the truth?

Is Hausa or Fulani territory only in the North West or North East?

Is Yoruba territory only in the SouthWest?

If the Yoruba parts of Kwara (2/3 by senatorial zone) is included as a state of its own in the SW, and same is done to the Yoruba part of Kogi (1/3 by senatorial zone), then the SW would have 8 states.

Do the same to the Hausa-Fulani parts of Niger State, Plateau, and Taraba states all in the North Central, and the North West and North East will have new states to raise their tally.

So even if the Asaba, Aniocha and Kwale parts of Delta (1/3 of Delta by senatorial zone) are included in the SE as a state of its own, the SE will still lag behind other regions

The Igbo man would still complain and will still remain miserable no matter how you dice this issue.

What you don't have, you simply don't have.

omenka:
Okay.. I believe you aren't an illiterate- so, let's do a little math.

You say I'm "always online" right?

Now:

You, Ada, have these stats:

Time registered: November 24, 2015.

Time spent online: 1 month & 13 days.

It means you have spent an average of 1/8 months of your time since registering on the forum online.

In terms of percentage, that is approximately 13% of your time ONLINE.

Me on the other hand, here are my stats:

Time registered: March 24, 2008.

Time spent online: 6 months & 13 days.

This means I've spent an average of 6/100 months of my time since registering on the forum online.

In terms of percentage, that is simply 6% of my time ONLINE!



Now Ada, place those figures side by side and think about your life for a second. Tell yourself the truth about who "spends all day on the forum" and needs the "5,000 stipend".

To put it simply, you have spent over twice as much time as I have online!

Can you see how smart you appear now?

Na so una go just carry anger dey embarrass unaselves upandan.

Pele.



Errrm, back to the matter, do you have any info on Game of Thrones S7 my dear?

Adaure4ever, do you understand the above analysis done to belie your bogus accusation or should I further simplify it if you're mathematically challenged?

The population of Kano and Lagos alone should make them 4 or more states each. The sheer size of some states alone should make them 5 states when compared to the biggest state in the SE.

So OP, for what reason should the SE have more than the 5 states it presently has? Is it until a state in the SE is depicted with a dot on the Nigerian map before you stop clamouring for more states when other regions are more deserving of states creation?

Give us your reasons and relate it to size and population which are the only objective factors for state creation.

Nigerian churches are financial investment centers.

So if Nigerian churches are in the US or UK, I consider it equivalent to having JP Morgan or Barclays bank invest in a Nigerian branch.

Whoever takes our religious outlook seriously is bound to be disappointed by the very lives of the acclaimed religious and their anointed leaders.

Some go to church only to give offerings from bribes and outright theft perpetrated at the office the week before. Some go for midweek service rushing to close before the agreed work schedule with their employer, while customers are left to wonder why service is not being rendered.

Some have gifted their churches with land parcels procured with funds that were obtained from inflated contract scams, undisclosed sales of company products, or even outright theft of company money.

Some go to church and return every Sunday with a different woman from the same church to sleep with. Some return from church and resume at a brothel by evening.

The ones I pity the most are the gullible ones who devote their time to serve the purpose of the pastor. They are like the janitors of the company. They either quit their jobs because it has a scheduling conflict with Church which they consider more important, despite having a family to cater for, or they exhibit truancy at the workplace, ultimately leading to their sack. They are the first to resume church work and the last to depart. They depart with empty pockets while the pastor departs with a sack of gold. While they are mourning the loss of a child who died owing to paucity of funds to pay for health care, the pastor is in the USA with his family for their annual summer vacation and family health care check up.

Why was there no handover that indicated such vehicles had been sent for repairs?

Were they initially sent for repairs on police account to still be used by the retired Arase as the curtain closed on his tenure, but is now forced to disclose their location when the theft was detected?

What about the DIGs, were all their cars sent for repairs too? And all the new police executives were unfamiliar with the Works and Police Transport Department to make enquiries before crying wolf?

An establishment that does not have laid down procedures would always encounter such problems between outgoing executives and the incoming executives. It is also the perfect situation that promotes the disappearance of company assets.

Ben Bruce has bigger problems to deal with that are more important than being on twitter or contributing meaningfully to debates in the senate.

His debt profile suggests that he ventured into politics at the very time he did to have access to public funds to rejuvenate his ailing business. He attempted contesting the governorship in Bayelsa but lost out to Dickson at the PDP primaries in 2012. He then settled for a Senate ticket in 2015 with the hopes that Jonathan would win re-election and he will be covered by the "family affair" umbrella.


Imagine Ben Bruce as Governor of Bayelsa already. Would he not have embezzled state funds to pay off his billions of Naira debt?

At the end of the day, many of our politicians are into the game for their own win. Not even the common sense Ben Bruce truly cares about the people of Bayelsa or Osun where he pledged to start his charity away from home.

He warned that unless the conditions he had set out were met, he would remain the national chairman of the party till 2018.

Na this one Yorubas dey call egungun be careful.

Sheriff is a fishbone that is stuck in the gluttonous throat of the PDP.

Who invited this trouble upon PDP? Wicked Wike, talkative Kpomo commissioning Fayose, and forging Ekweremadu.

Nothing as good as following the way of the law in seeking redress.

After Adaka Boro Avengers conclude their 15 minutes of fame in the spotlight, I hope we don't have the turn 9f Diepreye Alamieyesiegha Avengers too.

Every family in the South South is now a militant group of its own, with its own General, from Boyloaf to Bigloaf to Agegeloaf.

The Somalia situation of infinite warlords will be child's play to what the NigerDelta militants will cause.

I hope the South South peoples resident in the SouthWest and North are already packing their own bags too.

stefanweeks:
why are you full of hate?

why dont you like good thing?

the matter was resolved amicably and you are here spitting hate

i pity your children children

I am full of truth and I'm happy the truth hurt you.

I like a good thing and I'm happy that the typical Igbo arrogance was put away for their own good and safety.

Look through the comments here to see the typical arrogant Igbos disputing that this report is factual or that the scenery of the location is not similar to an Igbo settlement. They are unwillingly to accept that the Igbo man would take a course of action that depicts common sense instead of arrogance they are reputed for.

kingzizzy:
Because Maimalari was more qualified. Maimalari was amongst the first Nigerians to attend Sandhurst military Academy and became a full fledged combatant Army officer. But people like Shodeinde and Bassey were just recruits were given short officers training and commissioned into the Army. As can be seen in this picture, Maimalari is the same rank as David Ejoor but it was Maimalari who interviewed Ejoor when Ejoor was about to enter the Army. Sometimes, promotion in the Army is about how qualified you are not when you joined. If you don't do the necessary courses, others can leapfrog over you and become your senior. In terms of seniority, it was even Major Bassey who was the most senior being the first commissioned Nigerian officer with the Army number (N1).

Major Wellington Bassey (N1)
Major Aguiyi Ironsi (N2)
Major Ademulegun (N3)
Captain Nwawo (N10)
Captain David Ejoor(N17)

Interesting!

I quite understand the logic of uneven progress of former peers in an organization based on their respective performance.
So Ademulegun was commissioned before even Ogundipe who was his senior behind Ironsi?

Whatever happened to Bassey as he was nowhere in the army hierarchy during the period of the 1966 mutinies?

viyon02:
The fact is buhari is not really interested in the death of chief bola ige: he just want to black-mail some strong political forces.......one of the tricks in politics.

People like you are an enemy of progress. So justice that rightly punishes the politically mighty is injustice?

I reckon if Dele Giwa's case is reopened, it will be because the president is witch hunting political enemies in PDP?

You should be living in Somalia where everyone is a warlord, and justice has fled to safer shores.

PDP will not like this at all.

Funsho Williams' murder case should be opened too.

All cases have PDP members as either victims or suspects, and this will make the party hate Buhari the more for prying into what PDP are used to terming a "family matter".

Not forgetting the plane crash of Gen. Andrew Azazi and Gov. Sir Patrick Yakowa.

Bola Ige is Omisore's cross.
Dikibo is Rivers/SS PDP cross.
Funsho Williams is Obanikoro's cross.
Azazi and Yakowa is Jonathan presidency cross.

Buhari should hand them their respective crosses and point them to Golgotha.

SamMilla1:
Yeah, I also don't remember the office of the NSA declaring their money was missing before Buhari descended Dasuki. If we want to move forward we better start telling each other the truth, otherwise we keep Rotating in the same shiiit.

Yes the ONSA didn't declare money missing but the employer of the ONSA, the Presidency did. Money was also declared embezzled.

None of the above has happened in the case of Buratai.

All we have so far is that his CCB forms show that he had assets in Dubai. There's no revelation when a man has already made the declaration himself.

Obama was smart to allude to drug use as a young adult in his very first book, Dreams from my father. Bush Jnr also alluded to drug use as a college kid. No one could use it against them politically because it was already public knowledge. Imagine the scandal if such information had leaked out a month to elections? Same is the situation here with Buratai, unlike Saraki with hidden assets and futuristic asset declaration.

I understand that Buratai disclosed the assets as owned by his wife. So the questions to be asked should centre on if the wife could actually afford such assets in Dubai, since we are sure for now that the government is not looking for any missing money under Buratai's care in any past or present designation of his.

Buratai only recently became COAS. None of his past superiors have found him culpable of financial crime when he was a subordinate, except they were lousy at their jobs.

The title is not Judges that deserve awards or deserve to be chief justice, so I wonder why anarchists are mentioning Justice Okon Abang who has been giving criminals a tough time in his court.

Or has anyone accused Justice Okon Abang of collecting bribe or giving double judgement, or granting prayers not requested in the suits tabled before his court?

[/size]

[size=28pt]why will she that, when she had the power to summon aregbesola to appear before her.

she can take them to court for dismissing her.

nigeria is not a place where you fight corruption. corruption will fight you back. they are all corrupt

Power to summon without any case tabled before her?

She was the Judge that tried to play prosecutor and plaintiff, when her designation is to adjudicate.

SamMilla1:
How much did the pay you?
And we keep running in circles.

A security operative with a calculated measured salary from day one, bought properties above his 100 years salary, and here you sycophants are, telling us it was a distraction of fight against Boko Haram.
These people from the North should know we have advanced past 1970s

The difference between justice as served by a constituted authority versus jungle justice of the street, is that the accuser gets to prove that a wrong has been committed, while the accused gets to defend himself.

A man had already disclosed legally that such ownership of foreign asset exist. The military hierarchy too has not declared any money of theirs missing. The military subordinates too have not declared any entitlements of theirs embezzled. No contractor has claimed to have been forced to pay kickback or bribe for jobs awarded.

The onus is on whoever brought an already legally disclosed ownership to public notice, to prove that such was acquired illegally by the General or his wife.

Public disaffection does not provide evidence for prosecution or secure a guilty verdict.

If Buratai will go down, it won't be because of foreign assets duly declared, it will be for embezzlement of funds that might explain why he could afford foreign assets.

If no fund has been declared missing or misappropriated by him yet or any bribe or kickback received from contractors, then for now he has no case to answer since said property was even declared as owned by his wife, who no one has bothered to inform us if she was raised by a wealthy family or has a business of her own that can generate such income.

Verdict: Case dismissed!

Will the fugitive Tompolo come out of hiding?

Ptoocool:
Meanwhile, we are still waiting for your "robust response" sir..


I know you know what I'm talking about, sir

We are waiting patiently ooo. He claimed his American mentor pastor told him to hold his peace.

Bayelsa depends on oil revenue received as 13% derivation and federal allocations to state received monthly.

Both sources of funds have reduced. The former due to activities of NDA that has reduced oil production, while the latter is due to reduced oil income because of low oil prices.

The only option is to get politicians and government officials to quit stealing funds meant for governance and development.

If you are resident in the state, it is your responsibility to do something about it.

Lastly, a certain Sen Ben Bruce from Bayelsa promised to donate his allowances to Osun state. Tell him you need the money more than Osun, and that charity should begin at home. Also tell him his constituency that voted him in Bayelsa should be his primary focus, not his twitter constituency.

As for Jonathan, he is even useless to himself, so don't waste your time appealing to him. He is only useful to those who want to loot public funds or buy state assets for a pittance.

To prevent the loss of their own lives, the Igbos did not defend their hard working brothers in this instance.

I guess the Fulani herdsmen have become agents of change and cultural reorientation.

revolt:
you're a beastly rat for twisting history..... errrmm was there a coup in 1936 killings in the north, 1947, 1953, 1956, 1963, 1964, 1965, 1966,1967, 1979, 1982, 1983, 1987, 1991, 1992, 1995, 1998, 1999, 2001, 2003, 2007, 2011 killings etc ....you animals twisting history do u even know why ahmadu Bello was killed? you can't even imagine the interviews on TV where he openly spoke against igbo n their desire to emerge tops in everything they do ie his northernisation policy etc. akintola followed suit n did u say not a single igbo officer died in nzeogwus coup?.
Now all this was a military affair they didn't involve civilians so explain why over 40000 civilians were massacred during the reprisal coup and you beasts still wonder why igbos wanted out....That blood will forever haunt this contraption...watch

You are yet to tell us what is wrong with the Northern region having a Northernization policy for the benefit of its own people?

Must the Igbo man be the one to benefit in the North when the Northerners had no benefit in the Eastern region?

Are you clearly admitting that the Igbo officers deliberately murdered the Northern premier because he was aware of their domination agenda even in the North and dealt with him for daring to obstruct the plans of the greedy Igbos who gave nothing to anyone else in their own region?

Did the Igbos have plans to make the North their own property in addition to the Eastern region? Was the premier killed for being a stumbling block to their domination plans?

The below mindset of an unrepentant Igbo bigot about dominating other people's region might help paint a clear picture of this cultural greed.

36xtr09r:
Lagos is not your father's property.

Igbos travel to Lagos to take advantage of Yoruba visionlessness, docility and gross ineptitude. About a century ago the Europeans competed amongst themselves in trooping to Africa. That's business acumen and economic expansion at work!

Was Akintola murdered for also complaining that the Igbo led administration at the university of Ibadan employed lots of Igbo staff and gave only an insignificant number of employment to Yorubas on their own land?

Simply put, Akintola and Ahmadu Bello were killed by Igbo officers for not being docile, and for not being hospitable to the plans of the Igbos, who as disclosed by one of their own above, take advantage of their docile hosts.

Does the january coup explain why Cyprian Ekwensi was quick to take over administration of a Northern region agency and was quoted as saying "we have taken over.", even when the regional governments were still in place? An establishment that had no business with the federal government, but solely belonged to the Northern regional government.
