....and the enemies bites the dust once again.


Apsh1t goats and Yolubars shame on you


In mama risi's voice 'huuuuuuuuuuuuuuu' shame on you 'huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu'.

nduchucks:
So lets examine this defense presented by Senator Ike Ekweremadu:

(1) 7th senate session terminated 4th of June

(2)Within 5days, between 4th and 9th of June, Senate Standing Rule/Order was modified to allow for the process where Ekweremadu emerged as the Deputy President.

(3) Ekweremadu now claims that the rules were modified by bureaucracy.

Ladies and gentlemen, Senator Ekweremadu must believe that we are all fools. He and his cohorts will produce this "bureaucracy" who modified the rules, else they will pay their due price for this crime. If this is Ekweremadu's defense, then I'm afraid he is a goner.

Ekweremadu would have us believe that none of the senators reviewed the rules before the 7th senate session began or at the beginning of the session as customarily done. This is a sign of gross irresponsibility and possibly criminal activity. The days of abusing the Nigerian people and insulting the intelligence of Nigerians with these 419acts with impunity are over.

Very high price will be paid for this crime.

FAAC is the sole authority to approve payment or withdrawal from ECA, not GEJ.

Since FAAC has denied granting any approval, any depletion of ECA was therefore unauthorised misuse of public funds.

Okonjo-Iweala, being a financial officer, knew better than to pander to illegal order of GEJ.

Given your avid support for GEJ, you are the last person to speak on the matters of Nigeria's missing billions of dollars.

Furthermore, the suspects are capable of speaking for themselves.

it should come from ur head, or was it not appropriated for? Nonsense.

MalcoImX:
Question is, does the Christian scripture contain such harsh punishments as you easily ascribe to Islam? Are there even Christians now, apart from some in the Catholic Church? Are these people exporting homosexuality and gay marriage now that you call Christians? Forget even about that and ponder why the rich heritage of Jesus has been turned into a joke to an extent that they're now referred to as "nominal Christians." Find the Christians first, then we decide on the validity of your assumption.

MalcoImX:
You're asking me that? The Bible too contains such admonitions!

jaybee3:
Why don't you drop your view for clarity instead of asking unrelated questions?

The dude insisted foreign currency has to be changed into Naira before it can be invested and i said not necessarily

jaybee3:
Nigerian stock index is not traded in Nigeria alone

Do you understand the concept of EFT?

The discussion here got me thinking...... Thanks to Whynotthetruth And jaybee3 for refreshing my memory again, Twas an interesting one there........... Picking up my University text again to check up on some things......

WombRaiders:
The Quran contains at least 109 verses that call Muslims to war with nonbelievers for the sake of Islamic rule.  Some are quite graphic, with commands to chop off heads and fingers and kill infidels wherever they may be hiding.  Muslims who do not join the fight are called 'hypocrites' and warned that Allah will send them to Hell if they do not join the slaughter.


Muhammad was a military leader, laying siege to towns, massacring the men, raping their women, enslaving their children, and taking the property of others as his own.  On several occasions he rejected offers of surrender from the besieged inhabitants and even butchered captives.  He actually inspired his followers to battle when they did not feel it was right to fight, promising them slaves and booty if they did and threatening them with Hell if they did not.  Muhammad allowed his men to rape traumatized women captured in battle, usually on the very day their husbands and family members were slaughtered. 
 
It is important to emphasize that, for the most part, Muslim armies waged aggressive campaigns, and the religion's most dramatic military conquests were made by the actual companions of Muhammad in the decades following his death.  The early Islamic principle of warfare was that the civilian population of a town was to be destroyed (ie. men executed, women and children taken as slaves) if they defended themselves and resisted Islam.

ocelot2006:
I'm afraid you're the one that needs to open his eyes. Which East-West road or Benin-Ore road did OBJ fix? PLEASE STOP PEDDLING LIES.

So lets get a few things straight:

1) GEJ was responsible for the MASSIVE REHABILITATION AND EXPANSION of our rail network. OBJ built a line or 2 and THAT WAS IT.

2) the Benin-Ore-Shagamu road was LONG ABANDONED by the OBJ administration. I should know cos in Sept 2007 I and my mother, along with hundreds of travellers, had to use a detour bush track through a village cos the road had deteriorated to a level that it wasnt motorable again. That SAME ROAD was totally fixed by the GEJ administratiOkigwe-Umuahia-Abd by OBJ but rehabilitated by GEJ are the East-West road, Okigwe-Umuahia-AbA road, Enugu-Abakiliki-Ogoja road, Yola-Numan-Jalingo road, Jalingo-Wukari-Zaki Biam-Gboko road, Otukpo road, Ikot Abasi-Ogoni road.

3) As at 2002/2003 I visited the Egbin Power station as part of a field trip for engineering students. I vividly recall that while Marubeni Japan was hard at work, the OBJ administration could only fix TWO out of SIX turbines at the thermo power plant. There were a few pluses though: OBJ brought in then ENRON(now AES) with their 7 gas powered plants on 7 barges. He equally initiated the NIPP program, even though he built about 2-3 power stations with ZERO gas supply. Overall power generated NEVER exceeded1,200MW, despite the BILLIONS OF NAIRA pumped in. Under GEJ's watch, GEJ not only added new phases to the existing power plants built by OBJ, he also built and commissioned FAR MORE power plants than his predecessors COMBINED, provided our gas supply syatem via the Gas Revolution initiated by his govt, modernized and expanded our Transmission grid with new substations and power lines constructed (you can see part of these lines along the road linking Abuja city to the airport), was responsible for the construction of new distribution substations and massive distribution of transformers, unbundled and privatiEd PHCN, outsourced MGT of TCN to a reputable Canadian Utility Firm (Manitoba Power). Overall it paid off cos it was under the GEJ administration that power generated peaked at almost 5,000MW (the HIGHEST level recorded in this nation's history). Even when power level dropped to +2300MW due to sabotage of the gas pipelines, it was still far higher than what OBJ produced. You enjoy additional hours of power supply not because of OBJ, but because of GEJ.

Do keep in mind that while all these occured, same GEJ administration was fighting a raging Insurgency. All these are NOT paid for with air.

So PLEASE get your "facts" straight before you post.

AZeD1:
FG's share and any state and LG willing to donate to the cause.

hush15:
This figures reflect actual sales, not benchmark. The difference between sales and benchmark gives what you call excess crude sales.

what actually happens is that budget is built around expected or what we call projected sales which in turns is what is used to derive the benchmark price.

It is possible that Obasanjo saved more cos his bench is somehow much lower than the actual sales. The excess is saved in the ECA account since it is not touch as the benchmark sales already covered the budget with a little extra already. We all know that the cost of governance has increased in the last 10 years plus

For Jonathan, the margin between the benchmark price and the actual price may not be much depending on the budget proposed.

AZeD1:
Mr Barcanista, i truly understand you have to earn your pay (Man must wack) but your article is a big pile of trash. The whole controversy surrounding the $2 billion withdrawal is who authorized it
NOI in her last press release yesterday said GEJ authorized it for the payments of subsidy, and we know that GEJ cannot unilaterally approve withdrawals from the ECA so why didn't she get approval from the appropriate quarters?

If you decide to go down the route of the ECA account is illegal so no approval was needed , then you should also remember that existing laws stated that all monies accrued to Nigeria be shared by the 3 tiers of government and so by using that money to pay marketers GEJ and NOI breached their law.

You and I, ughhh ughh . . . I've figured the line, and I've drawn it, and we've reached that line, and I won't cross it.

Fine, this is a public forum and all, but I still choose those I would go forth and back with (intellectually), with certain standards.

You don't cut it. I'm sorry. Maybe on another day, on another forum, or topic.

joseph1832:
Barcanista you are indeed a political prostitute and no! I will not keep quiet!. Doesn't the embolden signify that the sharing of money from the ECA by PMB was meant for the payment of salaries, not for the state governors to share and nobody knows what happened to the money shared?.

If you ask me, this is a very justifiable course for the sharing of the ECA because as one of your carpetbaggers said, "the ECA is meant for a rainy day". So please, since you were so kind in providing this link that shows that PMB really know what he is doing, kindly provide the link to the suit/case numbers filed by the state governors suing the FG to share the ECA during Yar'Adua and GEJ administration.

Whynotthetruth, the reason why I didn't reply you was because you said you will never mention me again, alas, you did. So please observe my silence for my silence, must be heard!.

Bevista:
When there is a collusion of fraud, there is generally going to be a conspiracy of silence. It does not mean that there is no infraction of the law. If all the governors and the presidency are on the same page, they can perpetuate illegality without anyone complaining.

Have you not watched many legislative sessions where NASS members complained about spending by ministries and parastatals without appropriation? The CBN and the NNPC are typical examples. How did the presidency spend over N1.6T in 2011 for subsidy payments without appropriation.

Finally, you can make your point politely without referring to my comment as 'misyarning'.
