PoliticsAnd Now Jonathan Is Vindicated. by ticker(op): 6:16pm On Nov 15, 2015
President Goodluck Jonathan addressed the
United Nations General Assembly a few years
ago and told World Leaders "Terrorism is a
global problem (not just a Nigerian One) that the
whole world MUST stand up united against
rather than play politics with it or mock those
currently dealing with it" (my emphasis)
What did the Nigerian Intelligentsia do? They
largely mocked him and called him "weak and
clueless" - today, those Nigerians shamelessly
and hypocritically "claim Solidarity with France"
while they largely continue to pretend as though
"they don't know 20,000 of their own Citizens
have been killed by Islamic Terrorists in the
course of the last 5 years" while playing the
"negative politics" of "GEJ is to be blamed for
this; no serious nation would have allowed such
madness on their own soil under a serious
leader!"
Today, GEJ is no longer President - largely
blackmailed out of Office by the people that
became ever-willing partners to Boko Haram -
'praising them' as they killed Nigerians and
morally elevating their demonic ways over the
sovereignty of the Nigerian State and the
institution of the Presidency; today, those same
people are "seeking support for the same
Presidency versus Boko Haram."
If you belong to these groups I've listed above,
you should ask GOD to forgive your sins as you
head to church in the morning!

PoliticsAppointment Of Adamu Adamu As Minister Of Education Is A Disaster – Prof Oyebode by ticker(op): 5:11pm On Nov 13, 2015
A Professor of International Law and
Jurisprudence, Professor Akin Oyebode on
Wednesday gave his opinion about the
choices of Ministers and portfolios given
to them by President Muhammadu Buhari
in an interview on Channels Television.
He says the list of Ministers looks like a
‘mix bag’.
“You have some very brilliant and
interesting people, with tremendous
antecedents and some a little bit less so. I
have a feeling that we have a bitter-sweet
experience with the ministers that have
just been appointed, especially in relation
to the portfolios assigned,” Professor
Oyebode said.
On the reduced number of ministries, he
said that the government had taken the
decision as a deliberate attempt to save
funds.
“Enforcing The Slimming Diet”
According to him, the decision was in line
with the manifesto of the ruling All
Progressives Congress during the
campaigns that brought President Buhari
in.
“The focus of the government is
diversification of the economy so that we
will not continue to rely on petroleum
products. So, we have to look into other
areas like solid minerals and agriculture.
“I suppose that these are the things that
informed the President in streamlining and
enforcing the slimming diet on the Nigerian
bureaucracy,” he said.
The Professor of Law said that the choice
of Mr Babatunde Fashola, was not a wrong
one, as he [Fashola] had “in the last eight
years handled things that are involved in
the type of responsibilities that Buhari has
trust unto him”.
“When you put somebody in charge of
Power, Housing and Works, that is a mega
ministry. Fashola did a lot in Lagos State
in terms of transformation and I think
President Buhari wants to exploit his
antecedents and track records as a
miracle worker. I think it is a challenge
that Fashola will rise up to, Professor
Oyebode explained.
“Tail Wagging The Dog”
On the choice of the Minister of Education
and the Minister of State for Education, he
said it was a tragedy, insisting that a
professor, who had ran, a university should
not be a sidekick to an accountant turned
communist.
“It can only happen in a country like this,”
he said, further insisting that Tony Anwuka
deserved more than being a Minister of
State for Education.
President Buhari had named Mr Adamu
Adamu the Minister of Education and Mr
Anwuka the Minister of States for
Education.
But Professor Oyebode was of the opinion
that Mr Adamu had no experience in the
education sector.
“The core competency is missing from
Adamu Adamu and that is why I call it a
case of the tail wagging the dog.”
On the choice of the Minister of Finance,
Professor Oyebode was pessimistic that
Kemi Adeosun, who was made the Minister
of Finance, could handle the Nigerian
economy.
He insisted that experts in the field could
have been a better choice and envisaged a
review of the cabinet, which he said was
not far-fetched.

PoliticsUnder Buhari N25 Billion Being Stolen Daily In The Name Of TSA – Dino Melaye by ticker(op): 7:19am On Nov 12, 2015
?Dino Melaye, a senator representing Kogi west,
on Tuesday, raised the alarm over possible
corruption in the management of the treasury
single account (TSA).
? TheCable quotes Melaye to have said some
“financial scavengers and economic
cankerworms” ?were trying to sabotage the anti-
corruption war of President Muhammadu Buhari
by mismanaging the TSA.
He alleged that a firm, ‘Remitter’, hired to
manage the TSA, was making N25 billion in one
day in mopping up? about N2.5 trillion on the
loose.
Melaye asked the senate to give him an
opportunity to present a motion on the matter on
Wednesday.
Senate president Bukola Saraki put the request
to a voice vote, to which the “ayes” had it.?
In July, Buhari had directed that all revenue due
to the federal government or any of its agencies
be paid into the treasury single account (TSA) or
designated accounts maintained and operated in
the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
?A circular issued to all ministries, departments
and agencies (MDAs) by the former head of the
civil service of the federation, Danladi Kifasi had
urged the MDAs to ensure strict compliance with
the directive to avoid sanctions.?

PoliticsNigeria Can't Be Broke, Let Buhari Justify His Claim. by ticker(op): 1:22pm On Nov 05, 2015
The National Chairman of the Labour Party (LP),
Alhaji Abdulsam Abdulkadir, has said his party
does not agree that Nigeria is presently broke as
was claimed by President Muhammadu Buhari.
He said based on the facts on ground and the
value of resources available to Nigeria, the
country cannot to be in such a dire economic
situation as to justify it being broke.
Speaking to THISDAY on Wednesday against the
background of recent statement credited to
President Buhari to the effect that Nigeria’s
economy is in critical shape, Abdulkadir said the
only way the president can convince Nigerians is
to address the nation on the revenue earnings so
far and how he has implemented the 2015
budget.
“Firstly, I think President Buhari is being
economical with the truth, considering the facts
and the value of our resources. For him to say
that the nation is broke, was he saying we have
not been selling our crude oil as usual? Is he
saying the Customs has not been generating
revenues for the country? What of other
agencies of government? Are they no longer
generating funds for government?” the party
leader asked.
Abdulkadir said LP was amazed at the
pronouncement of President Buhari who should
know that the economy stands the risk of
plummeting in the absence of clear economic
policy direction and commitment to
implementing such solutions by government.
He said as far as his party is concerned, there
has not been any single infrastructural project
the present federal government has embarked on
since its inception more than five months ago.
According to, Nigeria is still selling its oil, while
other revenue yielding agencies have continued
to make returns to the coffers of government.
“If all these resources are coming in, could the
president tell the nation that since he came into
office the one project that he has initiated. Let
Buhari tell the nation how far he has
implemented this year’s budget.
“The president has been spending money without
appropriation, so let him justify it and stop
lamenting. He should have in place a concrete
and appropriate solution if he thinks that the
nation is broke. For those of us who have been
observing the events in the country, we know
that Nigeria is not broke. The problem is rather
that of lack of direction, commitment, focus and
lack of vision.
But to say that the nation is broke is far from
the truth. This is not acceptable to the LP.
Nigeria is not broke,” he stated.
On the view that the economy is being stifled
because of the absence of an economic team to
manage it, the party chairman said the situation
was affecting every sector in the country.
According to him, “Yes, it has to be. Every
sphere of our endeavour is being affected. One
thing is clear-the economy would go down
because there is no provision for sustaining our
infrastructure.
“Also, part of what is adversely affecting our
economy is the absence of the full compliments
of the cabinet team. No leader can operate
without having the right people surrounding him,
who would advise him. There is no way such
person can succeed. “Presently, President Buhari
has no minister, no cabinet and there is no one
to advise him appropriately.
The technocrats cannot advise him because they
are afraid of their jobs. The political appointees
who would have advised the president have not
been put in place. So, the earlier the president
gives portfolios to his ministers, the better. And
how can the president say not all the 36
ministers he submitted for Senate approval will
be given portfolios?
“The ministers should be given portfolios, as
what the president needs to do is to block
wastage after all how much is the salaries of the
ministers compared to the wastage that is still
going on. The issue is that there is no policy
direction yet on how to arrest the economic
downturn in the country, only what comes to
President Buhari’s head is wheat he implements.
“Our existing infrastructure is decaying by the
day due lack of attention. For instance, all the
geo-politically zones in the country suffering bad
roads, most of the federal roads in places like
the South-east, South-west and North Central are
dilapidated. Since the inception of the All
Progressives Congress (APC)-led administration,
there has not been any single infrastructural
project it embarked on.”

employment in Nigeria is a national
problem and must be tackled as such. He
urged the federal government to lift the

PoliticsBefore Buhari Appoints Ex-officio Ministers, By Jaafar Jaafar by ticker(op): 11:37am On Nov 03, 2015
What often worries me is why would major policies affecting Nigeria be always pronounced when the president is out of the country? The president addressed the nation on Independence Day, almost saying nothing, but chose to announce issues affecting us while out of the country. Why the loquacity abroad? Why the taciturnity and gynophobia at home? In cabinet politics, there are appointments considered insignificant. Posting to such positions is akin to sending appointees to political Siberia. At the state level, I know you are not a governor’s man when you are posted to Ministry of Commerce or are made Chairman of the Library Board or Public Suggestion Box office. In party politics, too, there are some appointments considered less-important for their impotence, useless for their uselessness, effete for their effeteness. Positions like Assistant Auditor, Assistant PRO, etc. are considered less important, “less lucrative”, while the ex-officio appointments are worse than all. While, in most cases, being an ex-officio was by virtue of one’s previous role in the party hierarchy, in some cases it is done to give politicians a sense of belonging. What President Buhari is introducing today is something similar to ex-officio appointments in party politics. You can’t have a minister without a duty and that duty is what is called a portfolio. A minister is a minister because he ministers. By the president’s pronouncement in far away India, Nigeria’s should expect a cabinet with three categories of ministers: kitchen ministers (those very close to Mr. President), portfolio ministers (those assigned ministries) and ex-officio ministers (those without any duty). What often worries me is why would major policies affecting Nigeria be always pronounced when the president is out of the country? The president addressed the nation on Independence Day, almost saying nothing, but chose to announce issues affecting us while out of the country. Why the loquacity abroad? Why the taciturnity and gynophobia at home? Why would Nigerians be made to snoop thousands of miles away to find issues affecting them told to a global audience? Why would our policies be made in foreign lands and imported to Nigeria? I was bitter hearing the president announce the date he would appoint ministers while abroad. It irked me when he disclosed the first portfolio he assigned himself while on a overseas trip. I was livid when the president revealed, yet again outside Nigeria, that some ministers may not be assigned duties. Why don’t we deserve respect from our leaders? Nigerians merely eavesdropped when President Buhari told the Washington Post audience while in Washington on June 20 that he would appoint ministers in September. On September 29, while attending a UN meeting in New York, Nigerians only overheard Buhari telling a foreign audience that he would be the minister of petroleum resources. While in India, Nigerians strained their ears – some 7,500kms away – to hear the president saying some ministers won’t be “substantive” – whatever that means! What is the problem with Africans? Now let us stand down two made-in- America pronouncements and take a made-in-India policy, which seems substandard. Since Buhari cautioned against the importation of substandard products from India, shouldn’t we caution him against importing substandard decisions to Nigeria? Dear sir, if Niger Republic could afford 32 ministers, Mali could afford 37, I wonder why Nigeria can’t afford 36. The cost of appointing ministers is not what Nigeria can’t bear. The budget of a single foreign trip by the president to Europe costs Nigeria more than what a minister will cost Nigeria, in terms of statutory earnings, in four years. I still want to believe President Buhari made, as usual, a Freudian slip when he said some ministers would not have a role to play. “There used to be forty two ministers,” the president said in India, “but I think we can barely keep half of that now because we cannot afford it.” He continued: “Others may not be substantive ministers but they will sit in the cabinet because that is what the constitution said and we can’t operate outside the constitution. “We are reducing the number of ministries we can’t afford to pay,” the president said. Dear Mr. President, paying ministers is not beyond our country’s reach. Dear sir, if Niger Republic could afford 32 ministers, Mali could afford 37, I wonder why Nigeria can’t afford 36. The cost of appointing ministers is not what Nigeria can’t bear. The budget of a single foreign trip by the president to Europe costs Nigeria more than what a minister will cost Nigeria, in terms of statutory earnings, in four years. If you consider the five-Star hotel bills of tens of people on the entourage, their feeding, estacode, the running of the presidential jet, the advance party, the foreign service office spending, logistics, etc, you will see sense in what I’m saying. There are 1001 ways of cutting costs, but certainly refusal to allocate duties to ministers is not one of them. Such decisions rather reduce efficiency that will cost Nigeria a lot. Buhari’s importation of a substandard “policy” will simply conduce inefficiency. Applying this Indian made contraband policy into the polity is, in polite tone, faulty. http://blogs.premiumtimesng.com/?p=169498
PoliticsNo One Can Stop Me From Speaking The Truth- Gov. Fayose by ticker(op): 11:06am On Nov 03, 2015
Ekiti State governor Ayo Fayose has
vowed to continue speaking the truth in
interest Nigeria and its people, saying
that “I am not one of those that will go
underground for fear of political
persecution.”
Fayose stated this while reacting to the
exclusive story in LEADERSHIP on
Monday in which the senior special
assistant to the President on Media and
Publicity, Malam Garba Shehu, warned
him on the need to get his facts right on
federal allocation.
The governor, in a statement by his
special assistant on Public
Communications and New Media, Mr Lere
Olayinka, in Ado -Ekiti yesterday, said it
was sad that the Presidency could be
warning a Nigerian, who is heading one
of the country’s federating units on what
to say or what not to say.
Olayinka also described the sthe
presidency’s reaction as a demonstration
of military dictatorship, claiming that the
country’s economy was in serious
recession.
He said,“The president himself attested
to this when he said that the country
was broke and this has also been
corroborated by the Nigerian National
Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) financial
report, which indicated that the
corporation incurred a total loss of
N120.07 billion in the months of August
and September.
“JP Morgan has also removed Nigeria
from its Emerging Market Bond Index, a
move analysts have said would have far-
reaching implications for the country’s
dwindling economy as investors could
move out their funds to competing
countries, resulting in higher lending
rates.
“It is, therefore, a sad reminder of the
military era that in a democracy, under a
federation in which all federating units
enjoy some degree of autonomy, the
Presidency is warning a state governor
on what to say or what not to say.
“Top functionaries of the All Progressives
Congress (APC), including state
governors criticised the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) government of
Dr Goodluck Jonathan, but the
presidency did not go about warning
them.
“Certainly, these people working with the
president need to be purged of Acquired
Immune Military Dictatorship Syndrome
(AIMDS), even as they must be told that
Fayose won’t stop speaking his mind and
exposing their hypocrisy in the overall
interest of Nigeria and its people.”
Speaking further, the governor’s aide
said “Nigerians are desirous of the
change promised by the APC-led federal
government, but as it stands, there is no
clear direction yet.”
