Politics / Re: Nigerian Chief Of Staff Office Budget Skyrockets To N21.22bn In 2024 — StatiSens by WhizdomXX(m): 3:24pm On Mar 23
seguntijan:


Not within my purview but the Chief of Staff is my Leader, Boss and Mentor and I owe it as duty to fumigate the atmosphere of lies/half-truths and to defend his personal integrity.

Budget of the office of the Chief of Staff in the last 5yrs

2020: ₦24.35 million
2021: ₦76.55 million
2022: ₦526.47 million
2023: ₦517.95 million
2024*: ₦21.22 billion

What they won't tell you is that major capital Renovation of National assets were captured in this allocation;

The Renovation of Dodan Barracks Presidential Lodge - ₦5 billion is captured.

--Renovation of Vice President Quarters in Lagos - ₦5 billion Is equally captured.

--Full Digitization of the entire State House and Lagos State Offices and Quarters - ₦10 billion

2024 Budget:
Overhead: ₦698.1m
Capital: ₦20.5bn
Femi Gbajabiamila's purse - Nil.

Even God as Commander in Chief of the Republic of Heaven, Satan and his camp still felt elections have consequences and revolted against the Almighty, how much more Asiwaju and his lieutenants. It is the President's job to ensure he delivers on his manifesto, but the job of making haters happy is solely theirs.

Good Evening Severally..
Vice president? His he Chief of staff to the VP?

*THE ODI MASSACRE:*

On November 4th, 1999….

An armed gang killed 7 policemen in the community of Odi, Bayelsa State. Few days later they killed 5 more policemen.

President Obasanjo immediately wrote the excerpt below to the Governor of Bayelsa state Diepreye Alamieyeseigha giving him 2 weeks to fish out the members of the gang & arraign them in a criminal court.

Many may not know but the gang that killed those policemen were used by the Governor & his party (PDP) during democratic elections in February 1999 to commit illegalities and Obasanjo already knew this.

The Problem was that Alamieyeseigha and the powers that be left them to run riot in various villages, towns and communities in Bayelsa.

After the two week ultimatum, the Governor couldn’t seem to arrest a known criminal & political thug who he used during his elections in February 1999.

So Obasanjo sent the Minister of Police Affairs, Major-General David Jemibewon (rtd.) and Senate President, Dr. Chuba Okadigbo to speak to Gov Alamieyeseigha.

He kept telling the same story but as they pressed the Governor harder, he gave up one name…

- Ken Niweigha aka Daddy Ken

Ken Niweigha (Pictured Below) was said to be many things

-a gang leader
- a career militant
- a highway robber
- a renown cultist
- a kidnapper
- a sea pirate on Nigerian waters.

Some say Ken was part of The Supreme Egbesu aka Egbesu Boys & The Asawana Boys both affiliated with the IYC - The Ijaw Youth Council.

Here -

Ken was also said to be the son of a Police Officer who chased away his father’s wives & used their house as a Command Center for his criminal activities.

For his role in the election rigging, Ken Niweigha was to be compensated but he got used and dumped. With the guns and reputation he had, he began his reign of terror on Yenagoa and other communities.

Obasanjo knew all of these.

Ken’s reign lasted from the elections in February 1999 until September 1999 when a Police Area Commander in Yenagoa, Mr. Thomas Jokotola, CSP, led an operation to dislodge Ken and his gang from their ‘Command Center’ and put an end to his reign of terror.

Jokotola succeeded killing & arresting many of Ken’s associates especially in the ‘Black Market’ area of Yenagoa but as Ken’s gang escaped they met soldiers at Habour Road, Yenegoa & killed all the soldiers.

Two months after that, on November 4th 1999, CSP Thomas Jokotola entered Odi with 6 other policemen on a special operation.

Ken and his Gang ambushed CSP Jokotola and his men.

In the end, all 7 policemen were MURDERED in Odi by Ken and his Asawana boys.

Their names are…

1. CSP Thomas Jokotola - Osun
2. DSP George Nwine - Rivers
3. St. Emmanuel Bako - Bauchi
4. CPL Ayuba Silas - Kaduna
5. PC Shaibu Zamani - Kaduna
6. CPL Elias Bitrus - Borno
7. CPL Robinson Obazee - Edo

And as earlier stated Obasanjo stepped in and gave the Governor 2 weeks to get things under control

4 days later in Kaiama, Bayelsa on Monday November 8, 1999 to be exact, 3 more Policemen were killed by some people in Odi

Their names…

1. Sgt. Alhaji Atabor - Kogi
2. PC Stephen Abu - Cross-Rivers
3. PC Umoh Ukbo - Cross-Rivers

After the 2 weeks given to the Governor expired on 18th, Obasanjo swung into action…

First He declared a state of emergency in Bayelsa.

Then drafted his Minister of Defence General TY Danjuma to send in Lieutenant Colonel Agbabiaka & 300 soldiers to Odi under the command of ECOMOG War Hero & hyper-efficient killing machine - General Victor Malu.

The instruction was simple - dislodge perpetrators of violence, restore law and order & apprehend the suspected murderers.

The mission was code named Operation Hakuri II, the Navy was also instructed to ensure no one escaped via the waterways, while the Police had the task of containing the civilians.

In less than 48 hours the most of Odi was leveled to the ground.

Only a church, schools, hospitals and a bank building survived the operation. Nothing which had life - man or animal - was breathing or moving.

Everything else was rubble or dead flesh.

What many will NEVER reveal when they recount the Odi Massacre is that Lt. Col. Agbabiaka and his men were ambushed between Kaiama and Odi before getting to their destination.

4 soldiers died.

Lt. Col. Agbabiaka called General Victor Malu to update him about the ambush and asked if he should call of the Operation. Malu asked him if he had completed his objective. Agbabiaka answered “No, Sir”.

Malu told him to proceed until the objective of the mission was achieved and then went to brief President Obasanjo.

Agbabiaka got to Odi and came under what he reported as “Heavy and Sustained fire”. The militants were shooting at the soldiers from built up areas, inside houses and buildings.

The militants were using civilians as human shields. Agbabiaka came up with a tactical assault plan to destroy every building the militants fired from. Many RPGs, Three 81mm Mortars, Two 105mm Howitzers and other high caliber explosives were used to blow up every building. The militants retreated to the creeks. Unfortunately, the Navy did not perform as well as expected and the Police Mobile forces were MIA.

Again Ken ESCAPED!

Below is an excerpt about the Odi massacre read from Gen Victor Malu’s Book - In The Name Of Victor.

Over ~375 people were reportedly killed in the most widely condemned military action since the General Sani Abacha pacifist troops overran Ogoniland.

Senate President Chuba Okadigbo & Wole Soyinka called it “high handedness” and “a callous overkill”.

The force commander, Lt.-Col. Agbabiaka, explained away the massacre to Chuba Okadigo & his team of senators as a 'defensive action.' 🙄

Obasanjo called it “the animalism of the military”.

10 years later, Ken Niweigha was finally arrested in 2009 when he allegedly attempted to kill the Bayelsa State Commisioner of Police, Onouha Uka Udeka in a shoot out at a check point on a Tuesday Night.

Despite being LG Coordinator of the Bayelsa Volunteers (a state security outfit) under Gov. Timipre Sylvia and his subsequent suspension, The SSS had slated Ken down for arrest and prosecution for illegal possession of arms and gun running.

The next day, Ken was led to his arms dump in Odi for evidence collection where the Police were ambushed by members of Ken’s gang and Ken was killed in the shoot out!

In 2013, Justice Lambi Akanbi of the Federal High Court ordered the FG to pay the victims of the Odi Massacre 37.6 Billion Naira as compensation. He gave a 3 week ultimatum.

On May 26, 2014, President Goodluck Jonathan & the FG negotiated an out of court settlement of N15billion and paid the compensation.

If you know Nigerian History, you can literally predict the future.

RIP to the murdered officers of 181 Amphibious Battalion and the 63 Brigade of the Nigerian Army.
So is Sheriff hiding the name of the killers or has he given a name?

sammiewrite:
Lots of great contributions so far but I want to add that rather than using YouTube and blogs for learning, consider Reddit. So, let's say you want to learn arbitrage, search something like "arbitrage reddit." I'm making this recommendation because with every update, Google is favoring the big publications who most times don't have experience, expertise or authority on the topic they're writing about. Additionally, they're writing for ad and affiliate revenue. In short, they are creating content and not adding (any or much) value. Reddit, however, is the direct opposite: nobody is trying to sell you anything, so whatever opinion you see there is often firsthand and value adding, plus there is a downvote button and the subreddits are heavily moderated.

And I'm sorry I will have to toe the line of your friends too by keeping things to myself. For a different reason, however. From my previous interactions with young people from Nigeria, many lack the mindset, discipline and work ethics. At my stage, I still dedicate at least three hours everyday learning about my industry. How many GenZ can be this committed? The last one I gave a test to read a 3000 page thread on a specific skill on Nairaland felt it was too much, so he never got back to me. So, for me, I feel it is a waste of time sacrificing my time for nothing. Wishing you good luck in your journey.

Check the names very well only one Yoruba
Oshadami is not Yoruba but I believe Opeyemi Dele-Ajayi is Yoruba, Abiodun is Igala, just as Awokoya Jaiyeola is British. Adeyanju sounds to me like an Edo name. Lastly I guess Olusegun Olulade and Akinkugbe are just bearing those names for fun, infact they're bwari people residing in Abuja.
Abraham Oshadami Executive Commissioner of Technical Services, Rimini Makama as Executive Commissioner of Stakeholder Management, and Opeyemi Dele-Ajayi as President and CEO of the Digital Bridge Institute.

At Nigerian Communications Satellite Limited, he named Abiodun Attah as Executive Director of Technical Services; Aisha Abdullahi as Executive Director, Finance & Administration; and Jaiyeola Awokoya as Executive Director, Marketing & Business Development.

The President also appointed Ibrahim Adeyanju, Managing Director/CEO of Galaxy Backbone Limited, alongside three executive directors.

They include Mohammed Ibrahim, Executive Director of Finance & Corporate Services; Olusegun Olulade, Executive Director of Customer Centricity & Marketing; and Ombe Akinkugbe, Executive Director of Digital Exploration & Technical Services.

Not surprised at all, he is very predictable. His tribesman are groaning in starvation, all he try to do is appease their elites with appointments. The funny thing is, more the yorubazation of Nigeria the more the country keeps sinking. That's what you get when you sacrifice competence on the altar of tribalism.

This is one of the reasons I don't pity the south east when they shout marginalization. They are not patriotic at all. Every region in nigeria is protesting the unbearable cost of living but they will rather sit down and look. If the protests works and the prices of goods and services come down they will buy cheaper goods from the market and reap where they did not sow. Peter Obi that they see as a messiah is worse than failure. His record in Anambra speaks volume. We will keep teaching you people political lessons
