Osun workers see where your money is going

Beko, I was getting ready to say the same thing.

LieDetector:
Why must it be from my tribe? I'm tempted to believe Sanusi lamido was right after all.


"yorubas are the problem of Nigeria "
Sanusi lamido Sanusi

How about "Nigeria Problem Are The Yoruba" will that make you happy. Today everybody is on the yoruba case next time if it happens to be Igbo what will you say. People we need to stop all this vindictive tribalistic nonsense. Either we want to co-exist in the same country or find other options

Producing fake cables is equally as dangerous. Many houses will go up in flames immediately we attain 24 hours uninterrupted power supply.

That is still some million years away in another galaxy.

I just like the way this woman handles her accusers. She's so unruffled and speaks with so much confidence. Quite unlike Fashola who talks about swimming and dancing dirty with his pig friends

Blind loyalty ain't good for the soul my brother. When are we going to start making comments base on the merit pertaining to the subject instead of blind allegiance to tribal.

Potch:
Did you read where it says $500 millions were disbursed for the expansion of four airports? How much will it cost to build new four airports? I don't know the last time you passed through MMT? These people should be behind bars.

I saw that number, I knew right away she ain't on the level with her numbers.

The immediate past Minister of Finance, Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, on Sunday described as untrue allegation that a substantial part($600m) of the $1bn Chinese loan obtained for railway projects, was diverted.

Okonjo-Iweala, in a statement by her Media Adviser, Mr Paul Nwabuikwu, also explained that contrary to the allegation, the Kano-Lagos rail project was not part of the project listed for funding from the Chinese loan.
President Muhammadu Buhari had last Monday queried the Ministry of Finance for alleged diversion of foreign loans obtained for rail projects by the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan.

Specifically, the President was seeking clarification on alleged diversion of a substantial part of a $1.005bn loan obtained from the Chinese Exim Bank for the construction of a standard gauge rail line, linking Lagos to Kano.

The funds were said to have been moved elsewhere.

Okonjo-Iweala, who spearheaded the negotiation for the loan during her time as finance minister, said the China-Exim Bank kept and disbursed funds for approved projects to contractors based on milestones.

The funds, she added, were not domiciled in the Finance Ministry.

Giving a breakdown of the loan and how it was utilised, the minister said $500m was used for the expansion of four International Airport Terminals in Lagos, Kano, Abuja and Port Harcourt; $500m for the Abuja Light Rail project; $984m for the Zungeru Hydro-electric power project and $100m for the Galaxy Backbone project

The minister, in the statement, noted that even if the alleged project was on the list of China-EximBank funded projects, diversion of any Chinese funds would have been extremely difficult because the terms of the contract and the processes would simply not have permitted such action.

The statement reads in part, “We have continued to receive media inquiries regarding an allegation reportedly made by the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Transport, Alhaji Mohammed Bashar, that a substantial part of a $1bn loan obtained from the China-EximBank by the Jonathan administration for a Kano-Lagos rail project was diverted to other projects.

“I want to state categorically that there is no truth in the reported allegation. Anyone who is interested can cross-check with the China-EximBank or the Chinese Embassy.

“It is noteworthy that even though President Buhari, in his reported comments on the allegation, made no reference to Dr. Okonjo-Iweala but rightly stressed the need for due process and transparency in the execution of public projects, a sponsored media campaign has once again been launched by political elements to make the former Minister the culprit in a non-existent scandal.

“The alleged diversion has no substance for the simple reason that the Kano-Lagos project was not even among the projects presented for funding by the China EximBank for several strategic infrastructural projects across the country.

“In fact, it was the Lagos–Ibadan rail project, not Lagos-Kano rail project that was proposed in the original application to the China-EximBank. But in the end, no funds were assigned for the Lagos-Ibadan rail project by the China-EximBank.”

Okay lets accept her explanation regarding the non diversion of funds. Now that we know what happened to the funds, let us now investigate if the listed projects (IN BOLD) were actually carried out. Nigeria press to me does not know how to do follow up investigation. The woman has given her deposition now let us find out if she is telling the truth or not.

I've never been to a church where the pastor or person preaching doesn't shout..

Does the shouting make the blessing more effective or what?? go abroad, ull never see a pastor literally screaming in ur ears thru the speakers

I want to know why it is so.

They shout because that is what an entertainer do. I gonna tell you, going to a church in Nigeria is like going to an entertainment event. Folks your Papa/Daddy(whatever title) Adeboye is in the clique they are all entertainers. Thats the way I see it.

Wow I guess its true. Facts are stubborn things.

And what culture is that if you dont mind me asking.

Jenny1010:
Men are known to possess high level of sexual urge, and can easily lose control of themselves and become irrational when sexually aroused especially when the opposite sex is on sight, they literally starts thinking with their joystick. Whatever you do, for your own safety stop offering your joystick to strangers ( prostitutes, one night stand, etc) for mouth-action. Stop risking your life for few minute ecstasy. Only enjoy mouth-action with your wife or girlfriend whom you have known for a longtime.

I heard a shocking story yesterday, although unverified, but I believe people should learn from this story. The victim, A final year student of one of the university in Nigeria, invited a girl he met on Facebook to come visit him. Around 1am in the night, the hostel mates were woken up by a loud scream protruding from the victims room. They rushed to find out what the problem was, but the door was locked. After several knock on the door without any responds, they decided to force the door open. When the door was forced open, they were meet with a shocking sight of the victim naked in pool of blood with his joystick almost detached from his groin. And in the other side few distance from the victim, is the girl naked and making a rhythmic movement of the arms and legs, which signifies she was having an epileptic seizure. She was giving the victim a mouth-action when the seizure started.

Seizure in Epilepsy patients is often triggered when the brain is in a state of high excitement or anxiety. The experience includes stiffen and tight clicking of the teeth for several seconds to a minute (imagine your joystick in her mouth at this moment) and then having an rhythmic movements of the arms and legs. Often the rhythmic movements slow before stopping. The return to consciousness is gradual and the person may be confused for quite some time --minutes to hours.

Have you ever consider if that stranger you are offering your joystick for a mouth-action is epileptic? Like HIV/AIDS , epilepsy is not written on the face . That handsome or beautiful face might be suffering from epilepsy.

Better be warned.

How do you expect a man to make rational judgement in this kind of situation when the blood he needs to circulate within his brain in order for him to make sound judgement have been diverted to his lower extremity. Unless you are a man you wont understand.

I don't care what part of the country those girls are from. To me they are Nigerians and that is what matter to me. The whole situation is an indictment of the country. The moral fabric of country has been torn to pieces. Lets be realistic we are all in this together either we like it or not.

babestella:
Well, if that is your style of politics, i'm sorry it will eventually kill this country because it continues to divide us along ethnic lines. I'm not sure the northerners will take it if SE becomes president and leaves out a zone totally out of government.

Your assertion about SW being left out is total false, all zones were well represented in GEJ's government. Go and check the records.

Even in the good olde USA it does happen. The South, and the Plain states is solid Republican, and the two Coasts are solidly Democrats. That leaves the Mid West as the Battle Ground states. That is politics my friend. FYI every election in the USA have always been decided by three states Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania. Who ever wins 2 out of three is the President. That formula has never failed.

I beg to differ. During GEJ administration, the senate, the house name the top 10 positions in the country and i can assure no body in that list will be from the south west. FYI I like GEJ as a man but as a politician he gets a D- in my book. I just got you some facts now let me see your facts.

ilawanson44:
Then why were yorubads and Hausads crying blue murder that GEJ was appointing only Igbos and South-South people alone into key positions? Was that not one of the major reasons the 2 zones voted against him?

Ok. Then use the same strategy to make the change you want in the next election. Calling other people names ain't gonna help to make the plan work. Politics requires lot of diplomacy my man.

FowlYansh:


Buhari is a tribal bigot that hate the igbos.

GEJ we are sorry

Lets be honest here Ndigbo didn't vote for the guy so what do you expect. Election does have consequence, and right now we are seeing the consequences derived from the election. During GEJ the South west were frozen out of critical positions and that cost GEJ the election. Right now what the SS and SE need to do is re strategize and plan for the next election. That is politics my dear. No need to cry over a spilled milk.

fairheven:
America can influence everybody but not China and Russian. America is a falling empire. The future is EAST. .the future is China.

Base on what?. The Present/the future is still going to be the USA. Why do you think all the new millionaires being made in China, and more than half of the world population when asked to name one country they will all like to migrate to chooses the USA. This is the only country in world you can come to and starting from scratch be whatever you want to be through hard work. Even the current President said it "There is only one place in world where the story of my life is possible and that place is my country the USA". May God continue to bless the USA.

Atlantian:
So, why is she upset with me as a person? I hardly ask girls out. When I meet a girl, the first thing I do is talk about my wife, then how lonely my weekends are due to her absence. But even then, these beautiful young girls dont mind. I put them on monthly allowance, something single boys wont do. I can tell you this night 3 girls have already called to ask if we are going out ? And I say, Hell to the NO. I am taking Panadol Night Pain and I am sleeping off. Do not blame married men, blame poverty. Truth is, married men pay better and wont even call to disturb the girls like these chewing gum boys. Girls call to ask to be on the schedule. Ego Di Nwanyi.

You gotta be in the Cascade area with that many side pieces. I am jealous of you brother.

seunmsg:
It must be a dream meeting for her. Meeting your half brother for the very first time and he happens to be the president of the United states. Quite a feeling it must be.

Someone should please tell Obama that without coming to Nigeria, the giant of Africa, he hasn't seen Africa at all.

What a delusional statement. What criterias are you using to justify your Giant of Africa statement. It got to be some misery index. Public education is non existent, citizen welfare are not something to write home about. Can't even produce 2% of the electricity needed in the country. Like Henry Kissinger once said about Nigeria "That is a country that import what she has, but export what she doesnt have" You have oil but guess what you also import petroleum. You dont have democracy, but you are willing send your soldiers to ensure there is democracy in other countries. In essence you are exporting something you dont have. Look at all the countries in Africa that the President has visited just tell me which one Nigeria is better than honestly.

olaeffect:
Buhari does not need to go about commissioning projects. Some contractors that have been paid to execute some power project for the past 3 years just realized they are yet to anything thing after GEJ lost the election.

Unless you just want to close your eyes to the truth, things are just suddenly working because as Deam Patience has warned during campaign you will go to jail under this administration if you don't deliver in respect of any contract money you have collected.

A friend of mine paid for prepaid meter since 2013 and was not given because they said it was not available yet, Bros on their own they came to fix it last month without any follow up.

And Buhari did that !!!. You are a strong believer as I can see.

sweetgala:
4656/200,000 MW There is still a long way to go. No need to celebrate yet

You are still less than 1% of what you need, As for Nigeria building nuclear power generation plant that is a pipe dream. If it ever happen though. I want the plant built in the North, trust me I have my reasons.

fatdon2:
Hope he is not dead? Somebody should please call the authorities

I guess being lifeless means you are not dead !!!!. Only in Nigeria.

Is that the same Lekki someone was just telling me to buy a plot of land for N30m eqivalent to $145,000. You got to be kidding me, For far less than that you can get yourself a $90,000 house in Charlotte along with a brand new C250 Benz and still have some serious change remaining. Lawd have mercy on that Kosi Kosi Country. Kosi ina, Kosi owo, Kosi omi. Always kosi kosi.

otusnorahs:
Thank God for ur decision madam. God bless u real good.

Are you talking about the same God that they people in Mississippi cited that tells them that Black people are not equal to White people, and slavery is in the Bible. Next time try to research a subject before passing a comment. Now I know why there is separation between religion and state. She can either obey the constitution or get out the way.

dustmalik:
That is an honorable woman right there

Good for her now she gets go on the unemployment line. You either respect the constitution or get the hell out. The Supreme court affirm gay right according to the the constitution. That for me settle the matter. I have never agreed with all the decisions coming from the Supreme court, but I have always accept them. Right to bear arms being one of it, but if the 2nd amendment allows it, i just have to accept it. We can not choice which decisions we obey and which one we wont obey cos of personal belief.
