With the expiration of his tenure as the Chairman of the Federal Inland Revenue Service, Babatunde Fowler may be in for difficult times as sources within the commission squealed that the recent video making the rounds online was a clear indication of the bad blood that existed between the immediate past FIRS Boss and his workers during his four-year tenure.

In the video seen by this online news medium, the staffers, clearing not happy with Mr Fowler were heard bidding him farewell while mocking him saying “Waka! Final exist, Ishiru…byeeee” as he drove out from the service headquarters located at the Central Business District, Abuja with no sirens like he was accustomed to in convoy of five...

Unofficially, the race for government positions in 2023 has begun. So is the search for candidates. In Akwa Ibom state, a strong zoning arrangement exists, and this time, it goes to Uyo senatorial district, home to the Ibibios. There are so many eminently qualified sons of the land that will jostle for the PDP ticket, which happens to be the ‘pass’ to occupy the Hilltop Mansion. One cannot but expect bad blood and forced alliance to surface in the build-up to the election, and to quickly point out, it’s going to be battle-royale. Names are beginning to emerge. The recent name is Inoyo Udom.

UDOM INOYO

Inoyo Udom is not a household name for now, but he certainly occupies a highly enviable position in Nigeria. Vice-chairman of Exxon Mobil Nigeria, a profile does not come any better. Surely, he is a professional and an accomplished technocrat. More importantly, he is a product of a system that places a premium on process, procedure, and performance. A brother on the Anchor, Inoyo is a philanthropist, who delights in giving back to the society, especially the younger generation through education. He is quite wealthy, as you may wish to know, he earns a higher salary than the governors of the south-south and south-east put together.

HIS CHANCES
His chances are quite high. But it will come at a high cost and higher compromise. Inoyo may be a greenhorn in Nigeria politics, but he is not new to playing politics. After all, politics permeates our everyday lives especially when people, position and power are involved. He is a friend to Udom Emmanuel and being the incumbent governor, can make things happen with the enormous powers and influence at his disposal. After all, he must have learned a thing or two from his erstwhile ‘master’.

The powers and influence of a sitting governor will be a key factor. With Udom Emmanuel no longer attached to the apron string of any political godfather, he can afford to throw his full weight and state funds behind his anointed candidate, Inoyo. And trust me, Inoyo will emerge the winner.

Definitely, there will be dissenting voices and disgruntled minds, but when ‘Ghana must go’ begins to move to relevant quarters in the wee hours of the night, dissent will turn to applause and endorsement. That was how Udom Emmanuel came to power and the path for his

While Senior Special Assistants and Senior Legislative Aides in Lagos State purportedly receive N300,000 per month besides the substantial amounts they receive from the legislator they assist, their counterparts in the Imo State House of Assembly are perfect fits of the song ‘suffering and smiling’ written by the legendary Fela Anikulapo Kuti.

Information made available to SecretReporters reveals that lawmakers in the Imo State House of Assembly have turned the salaries of their aides and special assistants into a cookey jar as they have been subjected to work like an elephant and eat like an ant.

A source who visited the Imo State House of Assembly revealed that junior legislative aides who were bitter about the inhumane treatment being meted on them by their principal but cannot complain for fear of losing their jobs stated that...

With the incessant lack of stable and sustainable power supply, improved infrastructure and dwindling operational performance in the Nigerian power sector, a memo obtained by this online news medium shows that various scandalous actions carried out by Companies such as Alheri Engineering company and Phase 3 Telecommunications through unpaid debts from award of contracts has proven to be one of the major reasons behind the decline in the productivity of the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN).

The Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN), which emerged from the defunct National Electric Power Authority (NEPA) following the unbundling of Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) with the 2005 Electric Power Sector Reform Act and operated a national grid that consists of eight thousand, three hundred and thirty-three Kilometers (8,336Km) of three hundred and thirty Kilovolts (330Kv) transmission lines and eighth hundred and seventy-one Kilometers (8,071Km) of one hundred and thirty-two Kilovolts (132KV) transmission lines in addition to 330/132/33KV substations, conveys electricity from power stations where electricity is produced to distribution companies which is subsequently distributed to households, businesses, and industries across the country.

These transmission routes are

Contrary to general belief that Aliko Dangote became the richest man in Nigeria and Africa due to his massive investment and monopoly of the cement, sugar and flour market among others, this has perhaps only been a ploy to silently take the eyes of the people off his shady deals in siphoning the nation’s resources using companies he owns and controls by proxy in other to sustain his federal government influenced wealth.

In a classified memo with Ref. No. FMP/OPS/06/1 written by the Fmr. Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola on October 31st, 2017 and received by President Muhammadu Buhari on November 6th, 2017 and obtained by SecretReporters, Fashola nailed Dangote as a locust that has feasted on the telecom industry.

It was gathered that in 2006, Alheri Engineering Company Limited and Phase 3 Telecom Limited cunningly entered into a Fiber Network Concession agreement with the Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) to...

Barely few weeks ago, the Akwa Ibom state Ministry of Education in their quest to ensure delivery of qualitative education in the state shut down over 1,140 Privately owned schools labeled illegal and sub-standard following their unhygienic condition, deplorable and unfriendly teaching-learning environment.

However, the action which was described by the state Commissioner for Education, Prof. Nse Essien as a revolutionary path to revive the dying state educational sector, may be seen as a sham by Akwaibomites as the loathsome conditions of most government owned schools located in the various communities in the state has become an unending sorry tale.

This is evidently seen in the pitiable state of Community Commercial Secondary school, which is one of the foremost secondary schools in Ikot Osute village in Oruk-Anam Local Government Area where student are seen writing exams under...

The education sector in Akwa Ibom state which is supposed to be marked as monumental strides owing particularly to the compulsory, acclaimed qualitative education and conducive environment for learning is now saddening and can as well be termed a run-of-mill in the society despite the huge budgetary allocation for education in the state.

This educational decline is apparently seen in the abandoned learning environment for the pupils of Bishop Clark School located in the heart of Abak LGA which surprisingly, is the home of the deputy Governor of the state, Mr Moses Frank and the Federal House member representing Abak/Etim-Ekpo/Ika Federal constituency, Mr Aniekan Umana.

Findings by SecretReporters revealed that despite the N14,258,669,350 (Fourteen Billion, Two Hundred and Fifty Eight Million, Six hundred and Sixty Nine Thousand, Three Hundred and Fifty Naira) budget which was approved for educational sector in the state as at 2018 and another N14,333,487,510 (Fourteen Billion, Three Hundred and Thirty Three Million, Four Hundred and Eighty Seven Thousand, Five Hundred and Ten Naira) budget also approved for the same sector in 2019, these funds which are meant for...

While well-deserving Nigerians are receiving National awards for years of positively impacting their society, Hebert Wigwe and his Access Bank are only showing their prowess in carrying out National frauds and deserving of an award for years of defrauding states across the country via unremitted taxes leaving behind trails of economic deprivation in their host states.

Findings by SecretReporters have shown that while other Northern states looks on as Access Bank Plc and its cohorts fleece the Nasarawa state dry of its IGR, little did the Niger State government know that the bank which is fast becoming notorious in the act of defrauding states as it concerns the non-remittance of taxes and IGR suppression has been secretly milking it of its IGR.

Following an audit report carried out by the Niger State Board of Internal Revenue to ascertain the level of tax compliance and Internal Generated Revenue (IGR) suppression by banks operating, it was gathered that Access bank Plc which is always a...

The All Progressive Congress (APC) Senator and Majority Chief Whip, Orji Uzor Kalu will be spending tonight in Ikoyi Correctional Centre, SecretReporters can authoritatively report.

This is contrary to fears by social media users that he will not be taken there. Our sources in prison disclosed to us that Mr. Orji Uzor Kalu was led into a prison white hummer bus with his co-accused and driven to Ikoyi prison.

We gathered that the Senator bowed his head throughout the journey, shivering and still in shock of the event, muttering inaudible sounds.

Led to the prison, he is currently in the office of the Deputy Comptroller of Prisons, waiting for his...

GUO Transport Company owned by Chief Dr. (Sir) Godwin Ubaka Okeke has over the years been accused to be an epitome of unprofessionalism and inefficiency perhaps due to its long-time operation in Eastern Nigeria.

This unprofessional conduct like diffusion in physics has moved from GUO Transport Company to every subsidiary operating under it with GUBA Express Courier Services Limited taking the lead in this regard despite its hypocritical motto of fast, safe and affordable delivery of parcels and freights.

Information made available to SecretReporters reveals that on 27th August 2019, a legal practitioner based in Abuja, Mr Seprebofa Oyeghe, sent a parcel with Waybill No. 2109326 containing a set of CAC Incorporation documents and Endorsement and Return of Court Processes through the Abuja terminal of GUBA Express Courier Services Limited which is a subsidiary of GUO Transport Company located at Plot 171 Gouba Plaza, Ekukinam Street, Utako Amac, Utako, Abuja to Iyana-Ipaja, Lagos Pick up terminal to be received by one Mr. Inibehe Effiong on 29th August 2019.

If the decision by President Muhammadu Buhari to investigate all constituency projects carried out by lawmakers in the last 10 years is anything to go by, Senator Francis Alimikhena should be topping the list in the country, primarily over the alleged diversion of funds allocated and released for his nominated constituency projects in 2017.

Information made available to SecretReporters reveals that in 2017, Senator Francis, representing Edo North Senatorial District nominated various projects to be carried out in his constituency worth over N380,000,000 as seen in the 2017 budget.

However, almost two years after the release of funds for the projects, it was alleged that the money released for the execution of these projects was

diverted by the Senator into his private pockets as the supposed beneficiaries of the project are unknown.

One of the projects we gathered, was for the Advocacy and Sensitization on the Rights of Children and Women in...

With barely two months in office, the acting Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), Dr Gbene Joi Nunieh may be one who bears an iron rod and ready to strike anyone who dares challenge her authority as the events of November 25th will forever remain in the memory of Persons with disability ahead of the commemoration of the Disability day on December 3, 2019.

Speaking with our reporter the President of the disability group in Port Harcourt, Mr Simon Bidei narrated their ordeal on that fateful day on how they had earlier met the former NDDC MD, Dr Akwagaga Enyia before she vacated the office when she promised to carry them along by providing avenues for skill acquisition and an inclusion in the ongoing empowerment among others.

Unfortunately, the promises could not be fulfilled before she was removed from office, which prompted Mr. Simon acting on behalf of the disability group to write to the current MD seeking for an audience, a request that was...

Shortly after the social media space was shaken with Money laundering and Bank fraud allegations against the CEO and AirPeace founder, Mr Ifechukwu Onyema, more evidence is beginning to emerge as to how he used the money to fund his airline business and also used millions from same to fuel and maintain his elite lifestyle.

According to the 36-page criminal indictment with No. 1:19-CR-464 filed on November 19, 2019 at the United State District Court Northern District of Georgia, Atlanta Division, the grand jury following a thorough investigation reported that in April 2, 2010, an account with number ***8086 was opened in the name of Allen I.

From Jim Ovia down to his successive Group Managing Directors/CEOs, it has been a tale of either aiding state governments in carrying out fraudulent financial dealings or fleecing the resources of state governments through suppression of Internally Generated Revenue (IGR), non-remittance of taxes, withholding dividends on income among others which are evident in Nasarawa State.

Residents of Nasarawa State might be oblivious of the fact that the untold economic hardship they have been subjected to can be attributed to the grand masterpiece of Mr. Ebenezer Onyeagwu and his predecessors in Zenith Bank Plc, as the bank may have allegedly fleeced the state’s Internally-Generated-Revenue (IGR) for years little wonder why it announced N4,739,825 Million in total assets, with shareholders’ equity of N616,353 Million as at 31st December 2016.

Findings by SecretReporters revealed that on seeing that only a paltry Internally-Revenue-Generation (IGR) was being raked into the State despite the number of banks operating in it, Alhaji Umaru Tanko Al-Makura upon his...

Slammed by the police earlier this year with a ₦2.5 billion 21 counts charge of conspiracy and stealing before an Ogun State High Court, Herbert Onyewumbu Wigwe’s led Access Bank Plc may be facing several litigations by the Nasarawa State government for defrauding her of over N139 million in unremitted taxes.

An inquiry carried out by a Forensic Accounting Consultancy firm based in Lagos which was engaged by the Nasarawa State Board of Internal Revenue to assist in the improvement of Internally-Generated-Revenue (IGR), withholding tax on dividends, Pay-As-You-Earn (PAYE) back-duty assessment and IGR suppression (if any) by banks operating in the State from May 1999 to 2017 showed that, the Wigwe-led Access Bank Plc which has operated in the state for years and have gained unlimited access to the state’s wealth and resources may have also joined the bandwagon of experts who engage in annual tax evasion maneuvers in the state.

The request granted by Justice Taiwo Taiwo of the Federal High Court in Abuja for the Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offenses Commission (ICPC)’s to freeze bank accounts allegedly owned by the immediate past Governor of Zamfara State, Abdul’aziz Abubakar Yari may bitten deep into his pockets as reports from sources in the state reveal that the former governor arguably is going through a hard time after he was restricted from accessing his accounts in Zenith and Polaris banks operated with funds in both local and foreign currencies.

This is evident in a letter addressed to the present Zamfara State governor seen by this online news medium in which the embattled former governor under whom local government workers were earning N6,000 as basic salary, lamented on not receiving money for his monthly upkeep for more than three months now.

From the letter, it was deduced that asides money for the upkeep which is pegged at N10,000,000 (Ten Million Naira) monthly, former governor Abdul’aziz also complained that he had only received his pension which is

Emeka Emuwa as Managing Director of Union Bank rakes in millions yearly but like the biblical rich man who still chose to take over Naboth's vineyard, he has chosen alongside his bank to take the little that Nasarawa State needs to develop their lands and improve the lives of residents. Sad!

Rated the 14th largest bank in Africa in 2009 with a declared asset base estimated at (US$4.1billion) N1, 381 billion (One Trillion Three Hundred and Eighty One Billion Naira) as at March 31st, 2018, citizens of Nasarawa State may be perplexed to find that Union Bank Nigeria may have used the State’s Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) to ensure the continued existence of the bank.

Information available to SecretReporters showed that in a comprehensive audit carried out by a Lagos State-based Forensic Accounting Consultancy Firm which was engaged by the Nasarawa State Board of Internal Revenue to assist in the improvement of Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) in the State.

If Nasarawa State residents are suffering, the Managing Director of GTBank, Segun Agbaje shares a big part of the blame as his bank has for years silently milked the State dry.

With the corporate goal to ‘maintain a culture of excellence and go to great lengths to actualize the popular phrase; The Customer Is King’ Guaranty Trust Bank (GTB) may have only shown that their sole aim of operating in Nasarawa State seemingly is to go to great lengths to establish a culture of...

In recent times, mobile network subscribers in Nigerians have become burdened with the seeming excesses and exploitations meted on them by network service providers due to the fact that the Nigerian Communication Commission (NCC) saddled with the responsibility of protecting consumers from undue exploitation from network service providers have joined the bandwagon of most government institutions who have abandoned their responsibilities and chosen to compromise standards to the detriment of innocent Nigerians.

In a recent tweet by a twitter user @CasmirIfejirika, who complained of the nonchalant attitude of the National Communications Commission (NCC) despite his numerous complains via a letter to them concerning the unprofessional action of a staff of MTN in Port Harcourt who seemed to have aided and abetted a fraudster in carrying out a SIM swap of his line without adhering to the stringent security checks to ascertain the owner of the line which eventually led to the transfer of N330,300 (Three Hundred and Thirty Thousand Three Hundred Naira) from his account by the fraudster.

A thorough perusal of the approved 2019 State budget for the agency by SecretReporters revealed that N200,000,000 (Two Hundred Million Naira) was allocated for the painting of roundabouts, dividers, and kerbs in Uyo and environs with another N600,000,000 (Six hundred Million Naira) earmarked for...

Comrade Elliot Afiyo is the current President of the Arewa Youth Congress of Nigeria, Chairman, Northern Youth Leaders Forum (NYLF), the Secretary-General, Association of West African Monarchs (AWAM) and a Senior Pastor with The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG).

Elliot has undoubtedly been around the political turf for a very long time and has been influential in influencing the making of presidents, governors and some key political leaders in the country.

In this down-to-earth, revealing and explosive interview, Afiyo, takes off by telling the first lady to hand-off the Dauras and Kyaris.

He then in his characteristically blunt nature, accused the former president Jonathan of breeding the killer Herdsmen in his quest to hold unto power heading into the 2015 elections.

The twenty nine lawmakers of the Delta State House of Assembly currently live and make laws in fear, even though they may not publicly show it, this SecretReporters can authoritatively confirm.

In what will be the most bizarre moment of Governor Ifeanyi Okowa led administration, he has sent an executive bill to the State House of Assembly for a law to amend the Delta State Governor and Deputy Governor pension rights and other benefits law 2005 (as amended) for the purpose of including the pension and entitlements of a former Acting Governor and other matters.

The crude bill which was read by Tim Owhofere as the Majority Leader on 22nd of October 2019 seeks to make Mr Sam Obi who acted as a governor in 2010 for only two months when Emmanuel Uduaghan election was annulled by the Court of Appeal become a first class privilege citizen.

With the international eye now on the activities of most Nigeria Universities after the #Sexforgrades investigative reports, most schools have taken adequate measures to put an end to such unprofessional acts by suspending or outrightly sacking lecturers involved in such while others like the Ahmadu Bello University Zaria prefer to pay lip service.

Information available to SecretReporters revealed that a certain foreign lecturer in the department of Nursing Science, Prof. Hayat I. Gomma who allegedly has been working in the department since 2011 without a license was recently caught in a high-level examination malpractice by inviting a male postgraduate nursing student to her residence in the university staff quarters to re-write his examination.

We learned that the Egyptian lecturer after she was appointed the departmental postgraduate coordinator as her first call in office proceeded to conduct a postgraduate coursework examination.

On 25th September 2019, the second day of the examination, after the MSc students finished their Advanced Research Methodology examination, eyewitnesses disclosed that Hayat Gomma instead of...

Following our earlier report, it appears that the judiciary in Akwa Ibom State, saddled with the responsibility of interpreting the content of the law so as to ensure that public office holders have little or no room in carrying out corrupt practices have joined their Legislative and Executive counterparts in milking the state dry vis a vis budget padding.
