This Gujungu guy is mad. Where was he when Lai Mohammed was criticising Goodluck Jonathan? This are the people heating up the polity. A president is sick and staying too long abroad and you say people should keep quite because he is from the north? You must be a sucker. If you refuse to speak up because the president is from your place, what makes you think all nigerians are as dumb as you guys. Tribalistic people. Anybody can fall sick. By the way, is it somebody that told you guys to be fielding sick people? These are the things that happen to people who think they are smart. Their so called smartness lead them into deep shit, like you have successfully found yourselves. You went to London to check on the president, on who's behalf, northern nigeria? If you are watching, others are watching too.

just as El Rufai and co were used to distabilise Jonathans government, abi. You people are not serious. They are voices of opposition that will keep talking even though Osinbajo is a yoruba man. They are not like the Arewa who will keep quite when things are going bad just because their son is president. The greatest attacks to the Obasanjo government came from the Tinubus and other yoruba people. So, Arewa, stop tribal politiking.

For real, this man has won the hearts of Ekiti people and most of Nigerians

Take it or leave it, this man has remained outspoken when other opposition elements have been silenced by fear of probe, EFCC, ICPC etc. Whether you agree or not when men like FFK speak out in the face of military like harassment, you have to commend them. A lot of the people who make terrible comments here do so because their identities are not exposed. A man who posts a message here that Buhari is a goat will not do that if his identity is exposed because he will be picked by DSS. So let us give it to those who are able to speak out.

DNA test for what? The essence of the test is to prove the paternity of the child but since the man's genotype is AA and that of the child is SS, it is 100% clear that one of the S could have come from another man. QED.

Where are we going? Nigerians have become too wicked. The new trend is to kill tanker drivers and divert their products. May the perpetuators of this crime be rounded up soon.

The dichotomy was not completely removed from the write up. They only equated the entry points, but the entry ranks are different. While one starts as senior Inspector the other starts as Assistant Suprintendent 1. The curricular of both are different. Existing regulation is for an Hnd holder to do a Pgd for 9 months to get equated. With the Pgd, they can decide to go for higher degrees if they so desire. No one should allow a class of certificate limit them. If you feel unfulfied, go for higher certificate. The truth of the matter is that Nigerias educational system was copied from the UK. A typical UK polytechnic runs both the Hnd and the degree program side by side because they were not made to be same. Even in Nigeria before now, to emphasize that difference, while you were expected to have 5 credits as entry requirement for the degree program, that of Ond/Hnd was 4 credits.

lonelydora:
That means the people that designed the educational curriculum are so stupid. Even though most people will jubilate over this, but there's difference between SSCE, OND, HND, BACHELORS, MASTERS, and PhD holders.
Why not equate SSCE and B.Sc too? Or Masters and PhD? Organisations pay different salaries for a reason.

HR personnel should throw more light.

Well, after all in the present Nigeria, OND/HND are getting jobs more than B.Sc/Masters holders. Not because of experience or what, but for 'Cheap' labour.

For those quoting me....I'm not jealous. I like the way FG removed the dichotomy, but it's wrong to generally say both degrees are equal. Secondary schools can never be the same with Commercial schools.

jumobi1:
INEC deemed the recall process legitimate. Now INEC which is a government commission represents the people in this matter.

Agreed, its a legitimate action but the tuzzle is between the people and Dino. INEC should not now join one side to fight the other but wait for the decision of the court and not appeal the case as if the plan to recall was a joint plan between INEC and the people.

engineerboat:
https://www.thecable.ng/breaking-inec-suspends-melayes-recall

Something is not adding up here. Why should it be INEC that will appeal the ruling. They are supposed to be neutral. Those who requested for Dino's recall should be the ones appealing the ruling, not INEC. Or are they the ones behind the recall?

All nigerian institution are accused of corruption. Name it, the police, pdp, customs, simply because of the nigerians there. Is APC not currupt too? Are there no nigerians there? Does the party not share money during elections? A party with people like Amaechi, Saraki, Tinubu?You do not need to be convicted before we know you are a thief. Evans has not been convicted yet we know he is a thief. APC calling PDP a currupt party is a case of kettle calling pot black. Let them tell those stories to the uninformed. Nigerians are enlighthened people.

By Tijjani Abdulsalam




Up until recent times not many African countries could boast of any kind of political stability and order with respect to change of government. The squabble for power and control plagued many states, and newly independent states, lacking any previous experience of democracy or self-rule were worst hit. Also, with sit-tight leadership being the fashion in those days, opponents of a regime have had to resort to the use of force and violence to oust unpopular or unwanted dictators. Over the decades past, quite a number of African leaders have been taken off power violently. This piece attempts to capture the most notable of such events, selected based on historical significance and aftermath events, and listed in reverse chronology.

1. Patrice Lumumba (DR Congo, 1961)

For many Congolese, the assassination of their First Prime Minister in 1961 marked the beginning of the end of what was supposed to be a new era of freedom, peace and prosperity following independence in 1960. Following elections, Patrice Lumumba was announced Prime Minister in June 1961 at the age of 34. He endured a tumultuous tenure plagued by the Congo Crisis, which comprised of mutiny in the Army, secession of important mineral-rich regions-Katanga and South Kasai-with Belgian support, rebellion in some parts of the country, and inter-ethnic fights.

After failing to get the support of the US and the UN in fighting the secession, Lumumba turned to the Soviets-a cardinal sin in the era of the cold war. This led to division within his own government and his subsequent deposition by Army Chief, Joseph Mobutu (a.k.a Mobutu Sese Seko).

Patrice Emery Lumumba was executed by firing squad on January 17 1961. According to Wikipedia, his body was dug up and ‘dissolved in sulfuric acid while the bones were ground and scattered’.

2. Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa (Nigeria, 1966)

The Assassination of Nigeria’s first and last Prime Minister, in 1966 amongst other political figures sparked off a series of sad events that culminated in a very brutal three-year civil war, which in itself, is a subject for another time. As with many leaders of new African states, Balewa had a tumultuous reign as Prime Minister with regional factionalism (especially from the ‘wild, wild west’), electoral violence, political and ethnic unrest giving his government a hard time. When on 15 January 1966, a group of officers struck against the political class assassinating amongst prominent politicians, Sir Balewa was top of the hit list.

Nicknamed the ‘Golden Voice of Africa’ due to his oratory, Balewa spoke impeccable (and Hausa accent spiced) English. His decent education, oratory, humility, Spartan lifestyle and little regard for the goodies of office makes him revered by many, till this day.

The exact manner of Balews’s death remains uncertain. What is certain, however, is that he was abducted from his official residence on 15 January 1966 and was missing for days. Many historical accounts hold that his body was found days later on the outskirts of Lagos, bullet-ridden and at an advanced stage of decomposition. His remains was laid to rest in Bauchi.

3. Muhammad Anwar al-Sadaat (Egypt, 1981)

Egypt’s ‘Hero of War and Peace’ and ‘Master of the Dramatic’ assumed power in 1970 following the death of Popular Arab leader, Gamal Abdel Nasser to whom he was a Vice-President. Born on Christmas day in 1918, Sadaat was that little son of a peasant farmer who would become one of the most charismatic leaders of his era.

As a young soldier, he was part of the ‘Free Officers’, a clique in the Egyptian Army instrumental to the overthrow of the Monarchy of King Farouk. As president, Sadaat is best known for his surprise 1973 ‘October War’ with Israel which weakened Israeli control over the Sinai Peninsular-a part of Egypt it had captured in the 1967 war, his unprecedented trip to Israel to ‘talk peace’ in November 1977 and his eventual peace deal with the State of Israel-the Camp David accords of 1979, which saw Egypt reclaim the Sinai Peninsula.

Sadaat was a man of oratory, charm, style and swagger with a knack for risk taking even with the possibilities of potential political cost. Muhammad Anwar al-Sadaat was assassinated at a Military parade in 1981 by a group of officers who were discontent about the Peace deal with Israel, worsening economy, imprisonment of opposition figures, among other things.

4. Samuel Doe (Liberia, 1990)

Samuel Doe’s assassination was gruesomely remarkable. It was not your regular sniper-take-down or firing squad assassination. It was arguably the first time that the world would watch a sitting head-of-state stripped down to his underpants, interrogated and humiliated before being dispatched to the great beyond in pieces.

Then Master-Sergeant Doe took power as a 28-year old Army officer also murdering incumbent, William Tolbert. Days later, members of Tolbert’s cabinet (except, among a few others, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf-Current President- who luckily escaped) were summarily and publicly executed at a beach in Monrovia. Doe ruled from April 1980 to September 1990 when he was captured by forces loyal to rebel leader, Prince Johnson. He died after hours of torture at the hands of Johnsons men.

Considering the circumstances of his ascension to power, not a few disagreed that he didn’t deserve his eventual fate.

5. Juvenal Habyarimana/Cyprian Ntaryamira (Rwanda/Burundi, 1994)



On the evening of 6 April 1994, a Dassault Falcon 50 airplane was shot down as it approached Kigali International Airport for a stopover enroute Bujumbura, Burundi. In the flight were Rwandan President, Juvenal Habyarimana and Burundian President, Cyprian Ntaryamira. Habyarimana’s death escalated already heated up Hutu/Tutsi ethnic tensions in a country where tribal identity and allegiance meant everything and could solely determine one’s chances of survival. This sparked off the Rwandan genocide of 1994 which saw almost a million Tutsis and moderate Hutus massacred to death within a space of four months.

Habyarimana’s death is still a subject of controversy in Rwanda. One version-the official version-has it that the plane was taken down by Hutu extremists desperate for an excuse to wipe out Tutsis, another version holds Tutsi fighters (allegedly led or ordered by Paul Kagame-current President) responsible.

Habyarimana, a Hutu, served from 1973 to 1994.

6. Thomas Isidore Noel Sankara (Burkina Faso, 1987)



It is said that ‘your best friend could be your worst enemy’, and that was the fate of young, vibrant, charismatic and straight-talking Thomas Sankara. After taking power in 1983 through a coup, Sankara became widely popular for his progressive ideals and for the zeal with which he sought to attain them. He put his country on the path of self-reliance and real economic independence and pursued reforms that encouraged local production and less reliance on foreign aid. His reforms impacted the lives of the citizenry and instilled in them the spirits of patriotism and hope which he demonstrated in his words and actions.

Sankara was assassinated in a coup in 1987, which many believed to be backed by the same Western imperialists Sankara sought to turn away from. The coup leader was a certain Blaise Campaore, Sankara’s ‘right hand man’, childhood friend, academy course mate and Army colleague.

Perhaps, you should take the popular expression, “watch your back” more seriously.

7. Muammar Ghaddafi (Libya, 2011)

When in 2009, the Brotherly Leader of the Libyan people marked his 40th year in office, few had reasons to believe he won’t be around for much longer. Ghaddafi overthrew King Idris, Libya’s last monarch, in 1969 to establish a modern Libyan state which he would preside over for the next four decades plus. A most eccentric, stylish and controversial figure, Colonel Ghaddafi transformed Libya from a traditional monarchy and one of Africa’s poorest states, to a truly modern state with the highest human development indices ratings on the continent in terms of Per Capita Income, Life expectancy and Literacy rate and Girl-child education.

Like many African leaders however, he had strong dictatorial tendencies. Press freedom and democratic structures were practically non-existent with reports of human-right abuses.When the Arab spring of 2010-2011 flowed into Libya, clashes between government and opposition forces led to a NATO intervention in favour of the latter. After months of bitter fighting, rebel forces eventually took control of Tripoli, the capital, effectively ending Ghaddafi’s 42- year reign.

As Ghaddafi fleed Libya, a satellite call made from his convoy was intercepted by NATO forces, resulting in air strikes. Colonel Ghaddafi was subsequently captured and killed (possibly by rebel forces).

If Goodluck had been the one who addressed the nation in his language without being seen, Bakarewill have closed down Ojota by the next day insisting that the president either appear or he resigns. I am so surprised at the grave silence this man had maintained since Buhari came on board. I am not against people who rise up against bad government. I hate those who are partial in doing so, especially when you profess to be a man of God who should live above board and be a roll model to others.

One thing I have realized is that the ruling class are just so united!

And their supporters are just so divided.

Funny enough the supporters can only be seen but cannot be heard!!!

And the ruling class must always be heard but might decide not to be seen at their discretion, after all we heard buharis speech in Hausa from London without seeing him

They are his pals and that is why he can not protest against them. When Goodluck dey there, Bakare no let us hear word. They add small join price of fuel, he enter street, Yar Adua no well, he enter street. Everything that made him enter the street then have repeated themselves yet the man remain mute. Hypocrites every where. God go judge una.

Mrs Husseina Mohammed, a civil servant in kogi state, has been issued with a query by the state government, for allegedly misinforming the public about the excess salary mistakenly paid into her account. .

The sanction is reportedly coming through the instruction given by the State Auditor General, Alhaji Yusuf Okala, who noted that Mrs Mohammed misinformed the public that she had returned the money to the state treasury even when she did not received any alert to confirm such transactions. .

The Auditor General explained that the officer only returned N1.6M on 3rd July, 2017, out of the N1.8M she claimed to have returned, saying “the information has caused confussion in the system”. .said Drinosblog reporters

He also directed that her salary be put on hold over the wrong information she gave the committee. Meanwhile, the family of Mrs Mohammed have expressed their disappointment, insisting that the allegation against her has brought disgrace to the family. .

It was also gathered from a close family source that Mrs Mohammed has been barred from speaking to the press or risk further punishment from the government. .

It was also learnt from a family source that, the said money was paid to the state coffers, but were surprised that weeks later, the cashier who performed the transaction failed to confirm that a particular digit was missing in the account number which the money was paid in. .

According to Drinosblog reporters, "The husband has not been paid for more than 15 months yet they were honest. This family barely feed three square meal just because of the harsh economy and the non payment of salary in kogi state. Are we supposed to blame them or blame the cashier?

The government should also blame their personnel for this defects instead of suffering an innocent soul when she made the state proud. It is unfortunate that they are getting this at this time instead of being honoured for their honesty.

Going by what is happening, if something of such happens again, people will be scared to come out and return such money because they don’t want to be disgraced," the family source stated. Drinosblog Reports.
