[quote author=ndu_chucks]The OP and his co conspirators are urged to prove that Cosharis has not received full payment for the vehicles. Odua's ministry is obligated to pay this full price plus interest to the bank under the fraudulent lease agreement. Shame on you rougues. 52 million ko, 52 cows ni. Olodo, compute the present value of the lease and revert back.[/quote]You can imagine! The cumulative interest on the loan obtained from First Bank would be N122million at the end of the 3-year repayment plan. N122+N643=N765million to be paid to First Bank. Why should the Minister/NCAA be so eager to procure those cars, especially as the NASS had expunged the 2 armoured vehicles from the requests made during the agency's budget defense? If the need for the armoured vehicles arose after the approval of the budget, why didn't the minister through the Senate and House committees on Aviation sought the approval of the NASS to capture it in the budget or inform the President who can send a supplementary budget to the NASS for the procurement of more operational vehicles? Instead, she opted unconstitutionally to make First Bank N122million richer. 1 Like |

Sincere 9gerian: So because some house of reps members made an allegation, you'r already getting excited? Why not wait till its confirmed? I've lost count of all the allegations that have turned out to be false so far.Thief defending Criminals! The lawmakers performed by their oversight function by physically inspecting the cars, and you have the gut to tell me to wait till its confirmed? Confirmed by who? The same Stella/NCAA who purloined public funds? Are the cars not parked in NCAA premises? Could the lawmakers have inspected the cars without the knowledge of NCAA? No. 4 Likes |

15:45 "The cars inspected by the House committee yesterday, Tuesday, are different from the ones stated in the documents between NCAA and Coscharis, the reps said. Lawmakers say they saw cars with different chassis number from those on the communication between NCAA and Coscharis." But Coscharis said since it did not inspect the cars with the House members, it cannot say whether that was the car delivered to NCAA. The firm insists it has done no wrong. 15:31 "Coscharis admits telling Ministry of Finance/NSA the cars were meant for Lagos state government, but said the arrangement was a usual "sponsor practice" for an event like the sports festival, and there was nothing wrong with that. The company insists it did not lie. It said during the events the company gives cars for use by government, in exchange for waivers that would be used for importing new ones as replacement. With a lot of gusto, Coscharis said it price was right. But lawmakers have busted that claim by revealing that the firm sent different prices to NCAA and NSA. Coscharis also claims the car in question goes for N87.7million(factory price) without tax, shipping etc. But a lawmaker has confirmed that he received a quotation from an American firm for the same car for about N42million. Jerry Manwe(a member): "Your own bullet proof is not manufactured in the moon" , Coscharis says a seven series in America is different with what they got from Europe." |

Sincere 9gerian: This is self-explanatory. Add this to the information in the thread https://www.nairaland.com/1495785/armoured-car-controversy-what-definition then the question that readily comes to mind is what really are the "sins" of Oduah?Her major sins are Abuse of Office, waste and fraud, judging by the information available in public domain. 1. Abuse of Power: a) The NA which is the arm of government empowered to appropriate funds has denied ever appropriating any sum of money for the procurement of armoured vehicles in the 2013 Appropriation Act. The minister on her own gave the approval without recourse to the NA. A violation of the Appropriation Act. b) Such an amount is beyond the threshold of the NCAA, and needs a FEC approval. For the Presidency not to have come out to acknowledge ever approving such, also amount to Abuse of office and misconduct. c) The Bureau of Public Procurement has also denied ever issuing a 'Certificate of No Objection' to NCAA or the Ministry of Aviation. It means NCAA violated the Public Procurement Act. Another Abuse of Office. 2. Fraud: Even if we should go by the argument of the NCAA that the cars were procured under a lease agreement. N240million was approved for the purchase of operational vehicles, an extra N403million was spent bringing it to a total of N643million borrowed from First Bank. The lease agreement would yield an interest of N122million at the end of the 3 year repayment plan. N122million added to N643million will make it N765million for the purchase of 54 Operational vehicles. The question begging for answer is; a) Even if the 54 operational vehicles were all captured in the Mid-Term Expenditure Framework(the planning tool), nothing stops the Ministry/NCAA from procuring the vehicles as captured in the MTE Framework for a period of 3 years. Why didn't the ministry approach the FEC to send a supplementary appropriation bill to the NASS for additional funds to be appropriated if the need for urgency arose? N122million would be fraudulently drained from public purse at the end of 36months repayment plan. 3. Waste: Buying 2 cars for N255million. The President in the 2012 budget requested for 2 bulletproof vehicles for himself and the Vice President at the cost of N280million, but had to jettison the idea due to public outcry. Why should a ministry engage in such waste? A ministry we are told is struggling to send its workers for overseas training? N122million cumulative interest is also a waste. These allegations are enough for the Presidency to sack all those involved. *Note; till date no one is able to verify if those armoured vehicles were procured because the agency have denied journalists, physical inspection of the vehicles. It is possible those cars were not procured, but paper work done in order to defraud Nigeria. There is also the new revelation from FAAN. 1 Like |

Shouldn't NANS concern be on the on-going face-off between the FG and striking lecturers? No, because the leadership is more interested in politics, serving as a willing tool, as long as their palms are well greased. Yinka Gbadebo, is a man with huge moral deficit. He was rusticated from Ekiti State University over issues related to cultism, 10 years ago. Yinka is currently a 'Diploma' student at OAU, hence the plight of university undergraduates is the least of his concern.

Only is APC states with Tinubu as overlord! You are as shameless as your masters!!! What a disgrace of a post!You must think NL is populated entirely by lawless feather brains and airheads like yourself. We all read here when the state Governor commissioned the factory. The garment factory is providing employment opportunities for 3,000 persons, excluding the market women who supply the materials for the uniforms to the factory. It is only idi0ts like you, that would see nothing wrong in 4 persons mass producing those uniforms without authorization from the factory. Common sense should tell you that the job(s) of the 3,000 employees of the garment factory will be at risk(the company may eventually fold up), if such shenanigans are allowed to carry on unabated. The uniforms are for government owned schools, so the state Government reserves the right to either produce and supply on its own or license to a firm.

In as much as I doubt the authenticity of this news, I believe the State government was right in prosecuting those four since they did not get license or authority from the company that owns the right to make and sell the uniforms. The same punishment that is applicable to one who makes imitations or adulteration of a product that is owned or licensed to another company or organization applies to them also. Just like printing N100 MTN recharge cards and selling for N50 without authorization/permission from MTN. Or generating/transmitting or distributing power/electricity without approval from the FG, even if its sold at a cheaper rate compared to PHCN or any of the GENCO's or DISCO's. If caught, such a person will be an occupant of one of Kirikiri's prison cells. To claim the garment company is run by the wife of the Governor is mere propaganda from Ondo State LP owned website, and they failed to substantiate the claim. The Managing Director of the Garment Factory is a certain, Mrs Folake Oyemade.http://pmnewsnigeria.com/2013/08/27/aregbesola-opens-n1-2b-garment-factory/ 3 Likes |

[quote author=Trailblazer-ng]It was reported that the Federal Government has increased the N30 billion it released for earned allowance to N40 billion. Is this true? The Federal Government didn’t consult us before they released the N30 billion. You see the insincerity? We were discussing how to implement the 2009 agreement and they simply went and released money to the universities, without any template, to cause further problems in the universities. So, if they have decided to add, and it was not part of the agreement, if they want to give universities award, they should go ahead. If somebody wants to give you award, you won’t reject it, but we know that we have an agreement and you should implement the agreement and when you want to implement the agreement, you are supposed to carry us along. Government is using this to blackmail us cheaply, and the next thing they would say is they have ‘released money, why won’t you call off the strike?’ We are not part of it and we have refused to participate in it and, in all the universities, you can ask, our members are not participating in the sharing of that money because it was not part of the agreement.[/quote]@Wesley80 and Taharqa, You guys have just been busted. @Wesly, dispenser of horrible lies.

Isn't that an act of executive incompetence. 2) You majored in economics I am sure you are not blind to see and deaf to hear how the ruling elite has been devouring and depleting the excess crude account on frivolous expenditure and some going into private purse, but using some to develop our university system is too much to ask for?3) On tertiary education taking a large percentage of the education budget. Whose fault is it that the government is not frugal? Shouldn't Education be allocated at least 15% of the total budget even if we cannot do UNESCO's 26%? Whereas its just a mere 9% of our total budget, a little improvement from the previous year. Even at that 9% of the total budget, I put it to you that the performance as at 3rd quarter of this year is less than 50%. So who is fooling who? 4) On the issue of Retirement age, though I have my reservation but why should government accept the recommendation? Another act of gross irresponsibility. 5) Undeserved allowances and outrageous salaries Your attention should be turned to our thieving ruling elite. |

“As a professor at the Duquesne University USA, Professor Adeyeye enjoyed flexible single and family healthcare coverage, including vision and dental insurance, disability benefits and life insurance, tuition remission for employees and family members, retirement savings plan with a generous eight per cent university contribution for employees with immediate vesting schedule, family leave, paid time off for vacation and holidays and unpaid time for personal leave of absence, comprehensive employee training programmes which promote professional development, access to a recreation centre and wellness programme. “The question Prof Adeyeye should answer is, where in Nigeria does a professor enjoy all these with conducive learning environment?
