As for 5 O'Clock, even though sey I no sabi maths, the answer can only be 5 if the factoria (!) is outside the square root.
Meaning
Square root of 9 = 3 and 3 factorial (!) = 6.
9 divided by 9 = 1
And
6-1 = 5

Truth be told, I earnestly commend the company that came up with this. BTW, what is the significance of 9 in this piece of creativity ?
I ran away from Engineering in my 5th year in the University because of Maths...

The danger of a single story

Wike is running a govt. of deceit, he has no development plan for Rivers – APC

The All Progressives Congress in Rivers State has accused Governor Nyesom Wike of running a government of deceit. The party said Wike and the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, do not have any development master plan for the state but only clone the famous roadmap to prosperity developed by its governorship candidate, Dr Dakuku Adol Peterside. APC, in a statement issued in Port Harcourt yesterday by its publicity secretary, Chris Finebone, said, “The All Progressives Congress (APC), having closely observed the slightly over one-month old Rivers State government led by Governor Nyesom Wike, has come to the conclusion that we have a government of deceit on our hands.

“During the political campaigns early in the year, Barr Wike and the PDP claimed to have a development master plan for Rivers State. However, a quick and careful scrutiny revealed that it was a cloning of the now famous roadmap to prosperity developed by Dr Dakuku Adol Peterside, the APC governorship candidate. “A further confirmation of this became obvious last week when the governor set up a steering committee on the blue print for Rivers State government under the chairmanship of Barr Nimi Waltson-Jack, who explained that his committee was set up to streamline planned government projects. The question is: did the Wike team really have a development programme for the state ab initio as claimed? “The seeming confusion the government is presently bedevilled with is occasioned by its lack of understanding of Dr Dakuku Peterside’s roadmap to prosperity which the governor copied so badly.”

Tinubu shunned APC’s NEC meeting because he knew there were plans to humiliate him – Party chieftain

More details have emerged on why former Lagos State governor Bola Tinubu, shunned the National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the APC on Friday. A member of the National Working Committee (NWC) who was at the meeting said Tinubu was aware that there were plans to humiliate him and his loyalistsm “Tinubu knew that some people were prepared to fight him. He would have been humiliated by some people”, the NWC member told The Sun. The NWC member also revealed that arrangements were already in place to engage Tinubu in a brawl and force him to leave the venue of the meeting in anger. “Those who were to humiliate him were on ground but his absence saved the day”, the APC chieftain added. He stated that the party leadership, sensing how rancorous the meeting may be , tinkered with the idea of barring journalists from covering it. He explained that the earlier plans were that photojournalists would be given five to 10 minutes to take pictures of the opening session and leave the scene. He said “we tinkered with the plans of barring journalists from covering the event. We knew that anything could happen but we didn’t want to be ridiculed in the public.” The source explained that Buhari’s men know that former Lagos State governor and his men want APC chairman Oyegun out because they didn’t succeed in “encircling the President with Tinubu’s men”. He told The Sun, “the President’s men refused to buy into the campaign that the National Chairman was compromised by Saraki. They didn’t see any evidence to that effect. Rather they believe that those who want him out were angry that that their agenda of encircling the president failed.

“They were angry that Oyegun was called up at 4am by forces from Lagos to do a dirty job. They even dropped the name of the President in all those dirty jobs. Instead of apologising to Mr President for lying with his name they are insisting that the National Chairman must go.” According to the source, APC should be “happy that PDP did not elect one of its own senate president. Saraki saved the party because there was nothing we would have done if they had elected one of their own as senate president. They formed a quorum, we were lucky that it did not go into their head to elect one of their own as senate president. And the mistake was because somebody in his desperation to have everything lied that the President called a meeting and took our lawmakers to a place they were not supposed to be.” On the side of Atiku’s loyalists, the paper gathered that they were against the removal of Oyegun because they were determined to cut Tinubu to size. The source added, “the other tendency which is loyal to the former Vice President does not want the structure of the party changed. It is against allowing Tinubu to take everything or call the shot in APC. It believes that the Vice President is a product of Tinubu and that should be enough for him.” He added, “both Buhari’s men and that of Atiku worked together to save Oyegun. However, I don’t think the fight is over, it may be the beginning”.

Former Governor of Kano State, Sen. Rabiu Kwankwaso, on Friday said he was neither under house arrest nor invited by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC. Kwankwaso made the clarification in a statement in Abuja by his Principal Private Secretary, Muhhamad Inuwa Ali, against the backdrop of rumours that he had gone into hiding, following the commencement of a probe into the management of N2billion pension cash while in office. The statement said, “To set the record straight, Sen. Kwankwaso was not invited by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), nor was he ever placed under house arrest or prevented from discharging his legislative or personal duties by any agency. “As a distinguished legislator, he is ever willing and ready to support and strengthen our anti-graft agencies in the fight against corruption in Nigeria.

"The attention of His Excellency, Engr. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, Senator representing the Kano Central Senatorial District, was drawn by some of his political supporters in Kano regarding a libelous and unfounded petition against his person before the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) by his political opponents sometimes in May 2015. “The supporters sought for the distinguished Senator’s permission to institute legal action against the said petitioners to which he consented. “But to the distinguished Senator’s surprise, the supporters and their lawyers instituted an action against the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) instead of restricting the case to be against the petitioners (our political opponents). “Conversely, Sen. Kwankwaso has instructed his supporters and their lawyers to discontinue the matter against the EFCC with immediate effect, while the unfounded libelous case against his person will continue"
