The worst bank in Nigeria upon its assets base, wide covering etc. It is a bank for the aged. It is almost impossible to see a Youth corper going for such bank or any young person for that matter. Hope the bank will not die along with buhari demise. Step clear from union bank. It is dangerous to your financial well being.

BUHARI is a big liar. All the girls were forced to convert and there none of them that were allow to still practise their faith. Again, he is a big joke by saying that he selected people that he trusted alone. In other words, he is saying that he trusted no SEners, evem Alhaji Rochas. Is it not fUUlish of him. He promised that he will bring back the girls by all means during his infamous campaign, but here is now lamenting. THE LAMENTATION PRESIDENT. I dont believe in Buhari's ability to change things, i hope in God for the best

They deserve life in prison. We have to be serious in this country to fight this criminality especially among some greedy igbo men.

The fact is other major parts of Nigeria were still living in mud and thatch houses when millions of Ibadan indigenes and residents were already using zinc roofs and later on cement buildings. Some of the earliest mud houses in the ancient city were just upgraded with zinc roofs before the owners decided to stop at that or make a complete overhaul. With the earliest form of civilized settlement not only in Nigeria but Africa as a whole, Ibadan is a city blessed with rich cultural and historical heritage. As at Nigeria's independence, Ibadan was the largest and most populous city in the country and the third in Africa after Cairo and Johannesburg. Ibadan had been the center of administration and capital of the old Western Region, Nigeria since the days of British colonial rule hence her many firsts in accomplishments. First TV station in Africa, first University in Nigeria, first sky scrapper in Nigeria, first modern stadium in Africa, among many other accomplishments due to early civilization.

What makes the brown roof phenomena quite alluring and exceptionally striking is the topography of the large expanse of land and the very large clusters of homogenous settlement. Standing at a vantage point like atop its most popular hill Oke-are, of which Ibadan is noted for many more, or at the top of the bowers tower which is the highest point of the city (this is where many of the popular brown roof pictures are taken) the view of the historical city sprawls out in an alluring manner with all its splendor. You cannot just resist the aura of a feeling of deep rich history.

According to J.P Clark a very famous poet, "Ibadan is a running splash of gold [/b]and [b]rust, flung and [b]scattered [/b]among seven hills like broken china in the sun".

The problem with Ibadan and its negative perception is...over "scatterness" mainly because of its hilly terrain, hence why most visitors and passer-by's who are most guilty of spreading its negative stereotype never stop to take it all in.

Bodija is cut off from Challenge!

Mokola is cut off from Eleyele!!

Moniya and Akinyele is more of a voyage to Felele!!!

Now we have also Iroko, lalupon, egbeda, old lagos road, etc. The bazillions of towns around those places can actually make another state.

Venice is one of the world’s biggest tourist destinations, described as an open air museum with ancient buildings and artifacts. As old as it is, most of its ancient buildings have brown roofs but Venetians and historians have never called the city dirty because of that. So why should we call Ibadan dirty because of that too? Of all my years in this city I have always considered the brown roof as a form of art and beauty and I would love Nigerians to stop and look well. We only start appreciating ourselves when a foreigner tells our story but for once lets tell it to them.

The brown roofs is due to years of use of the steel pan roofs and the more the rust the more the years of use and yeah, the more its beauty. I’m not saying people should not use their asbestos or stone coated step tile roofing sheets. I just really love the vintage look the roofs gives the city.

So you see, people are right when they say Ibadan has brown roofs; many of them I tell you. Ibadan has more brown roofs than anywhere in Nigeria. But do you know the bigger truth? Ibadan also has more modern houses than anywhere else in the country.

Match all the modern houses in the biggest city in all geopolitical zones across the country with those in Ibadan, when the houses in those cities finish, the remaining modern houses in Ibadan WILL still be more than those in the next two biggest cities. Fact!

To summarize this my narrative, let me quickly quip in a remix version of JP Clarks popular quote about the ancient city.

"Ibadan has more gold and more rust than anywhere else in Nigeria"

vicadex07 ---- 2015

Brown roof city. It sounds odd. It looks as if the city is under developed. Ibadan is sure a big urban town but i notice also a very good number of houses are not painted making it to look old and un attractive. They should start renovating the houses there. Ibadan need a "CHANGE"

Picture of the suspect

You are so tribally bigotted that your only reason for posting this criminal shameful act is because his name is KELECHI which you cospicously high lighted. Thats a true sign of inferiority complex. You are just troubled about that tribe. I dont care the tribe of any man but all sorts of criminal act should be outrightly be condemned.

efilefun:
Only fools and brainwashed wailers would blame PMB after reading this thread.

You are actually living in a paradise fool. Thesame PMB your great god and saviour is equal to the task. Why did you vote 4 him. He must fix that rot or else Nigerians will throw him stones with curses. You are suffering from shame and reproach of trusting in a man. This has passed the issue of wailers because they are presently your saviour. YOU ARE ACTUALLY THE BRAINWASHED FUUL in this case.

We need Ngozi Okonji Iweala now or never. She remain the only person that will deliver Buhari from his economic suicide. PRIDE WILL NOT ALLOW HIM TO HIRE NGOZI BACK. Nigeria ecomomy is beyond rearing 150 cows since 1985 : 30yrs and magically increasing it from 150-270 cows in 3months. I don set. Economy of Nigeria will continue to grow in sahara reporter, tvc, the nation. GP MORGAN, you are on your own. Ndi oyo don hear well.

shaddoww:
The verification became necessary wen there was disagreement btw d government n d NLC over d total number of civil servants in d state, d government claims it spends close to 3.6billion on salaries n pensions, so it was jointly agreed dat d government should do a verification exercise which is even been conducted by d civil service commission, d situation in Osun is not as worse as been portrayed in d media n from d list of states collecting bailout u can see dat it's not peculiar to Osun alone, just recently OYO was even saying it needs more money despite d bailout.

Let it to the sky and cry aloud, the vulture will hear you better than the deaf hawk. don't be so insensitive to the plight of the poor osun civil servants who may not have any alternative of life savings. it is the worst state presently in the country. Let him start tomorrow to pay them and not just to refute what the pdp is saying.

Your comments is full of childish funs. Kene who by the way? You have to be matured even though you may be a teenager. Just enjoy your change why it last.

When you decieve and betray ppl, you have no choice than to lose friends PDP the reigning champion is now left with few governors .

Nigeria needs to move forward, we can't remain stagnant like an abandoned water . PDP is a total waste to this Nation. APC aren't saint either but the difference is clear.

What are we looking for again? These are the looters who thinks Nigeria money is meant for them and their relatives alone. EFCC should line them up and forcefully ask them to declare their assets.

Gej the father of corruption and his followers are now planning to run away from Nigeria to avoid jail, But nobody will escape punishment from God if you loot funds that's meant for a whole nation.


Before you start quoting me,
You have nothing to use against me than to call me a failed Mr Nl . what else some tried to bring me down but they are just too little because I am a moving train

APC aint SAINT but tell us who they are? Lieing liars? Say the truth. A rotten tomatoes in the basket. Do not be deceived.

kestolove95:
but why did he behave like d governors from the east

hope you are ok woman. Did you say governors from the east? I have written to pmb and all the governors to go for study leave on governance in Awka, Anambra state. Obiano will lecture them on how to save, build roads, develope schools that will be topping in waec, Gce, jamb and highest cut off of 139 in unity schools. Wise men is always from the east. It is now tranfered to Abia.

Saifullah01:
Nobody scammed anyone. The bailouts were not free after all. It was either a restructuring of existing commercial bank loans into government bonds, or outright purchase of FGN bonds, either ways u pay FGN back. It's left for the state assembly and people to ensure such funds r put to judicious use

You are a hypocrite. You guys are people that will destroy PMB. That you support him does not mean you will be blinded to foolishly allow him to fall into the pit even when he is drowning. I am begining to wander between the wailing wailers and the lieing liers who love pmb. Why one will expose his mistakes making him to take corrections, the other in their lieing nature will even lick his vomit shouting how delicious it taste.

She is also the Chairman, Board of Trustees of Women in Management and Business (WIMBIZ), as well as the Chairman of Intermac, the organisers of Smart Card Conference in Nigeria.

Thats a good one. Women are great in this sector, but know that some women in Nigeria has gone beyond Nigeria, Africa: oby ezekwesiri, Arumah Oteh, World level: Ngozi okonji iwela, a potential world bank president still in waiting. Women are great.

PDP supporter Adeyanju Deji met both the First Lady Aisha Buhari and her son, Yusuf Buhari in London and took pictures with them. Deji has used 'certain' words against Buhari in the past and once referred to the President as 'Brain Dead.

Nigerian Twitter users who are familiar with his attacks were quite shocked to see the photos with the first family he shared on twitter and questioned the kind of security the first family has. See the photos he took, his former tweets and the reactions from some Nigerians.

That does not stop his brain to be dead according to him. Check out the pic, he took it with the wife and son and not with the dead brain pmb. Who knows, that is change, pmb must have gone for brain surgery during his visit to Obama the hell bound man. That said and done, he never took it with the Buuhr.

Thank God the evil man was kicked out

The whole world is going red.

Eyaah, your saviour could not help you out even after you kicked your so callee Evil man. Now see your life don turn red. TRUST NOT 1N A MAN. Woe is unto a man that trust in a man.

Yes, now that Buhari is incharge, by his body language it will come from 170 to number one. PMB is working. The wailers will say it is impossible. The best president in the whole world.

Immediate past Special Adviser on Niger Delta and Chairman, Presidential Amnesty Programme, Hon. Kingsley Kuku, has asked anti-corruption agencies not to tamper with the account of his charity organisation, Keketobou Care Foundation, which he has been using to help the poor.
Kuku, who made the call in a telephone interview from his hospital in the United States on Sunday, said there was no public fund in the charity account, which has helped to render succour to indigent students, women and men over time.
[img]http://i2.wp.com/dailytimes.com.ng/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/13-new-754x517.jpg?zoom=1.5&fit=300%2C300[/img]
Kuku was reacting to reports that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) had frozen the accounts of close allies of former President Goodluck Jonathan, including the Keketobou Care Foundation.

The former presidential aide, who is recuperating in an American hospital after a knee surgery, said there were no government funds in the account, which had a total deposit of N720,484 as at the end of July this year.

According to Kuku, the amount found in the account was the proceeds from the launch of his book: “Remaking the Niger Delta: Challenges and Opportunities.”

He said before now, he had used his personal earnings and other donations by well-wishers to fund the account so as to provide enough funds for buying JAMB forms for poor indigenes of Ondo State and provide support to poor widows, women and traders in the state.

“I have always been using the Keketobou Care Foundation to help the poor and there is no evidence that the account has ever been funded with government money, as the records would show,” Kuku said.

He described as unfortunate any attempt by the EFCC or any other anti-craft agency to flag the account, saying that it was a politically-motivated move to implicate him and others who worked with Jonathan.

Kuku said while he was open and ready for investigation by the anti-graft agencies, it was wrong for anyone to try to cook up malicious and politically-motivated issues to smear his hard-earned reputation in a bid to suit predetermined goal.

Kuku said: “Keketobou Foundation has only N720,484 balance as at today. The proceeds of my published and launched book “Remaking the Niger Delta” went in there for charity purposes as a public officer.

“It gave free JAMB forms to applicants, financial/material support to the aged, widows and the physically challenged and helped in the local rehabilitation of walkways and drainages in my birth-place/town, Arogbo, Ondo State in the determined spirit to give back to my final place of return in life.

“The publication is false, untrue, malicious and politically-motivated to smear my hard-earned reputation. What on earth links my face to the alleged story about NIMASA?

“It is still all part of the anti-Jonathan onslaught. I am open to investigation as a public officer but ongoing distortion by agencies and some section of the media creates in the heart of it all suspicion of witch-hunt and bad politics.

“I hope no desperate elements would deposit illicit funds into the Foundation’s account to implicate me because the full details of the account from opening to date are with us.

“Again, what links this foundation to their so-called alleged sleaze of billions and phantom security claims? I sincerely smell a rat. Finally, it’s not my account but a foundation’s account,” Kuku claimed.

This man is an ijaw man and still and indigene of Ondo state. How come, i was thinking that Ondo state is all yorubas. I only know lagos with other indigenes in epe, ikorodu and awori area but this ondo, how true.

Sheggy13:
Is the man Igbo or not? A crime is a crime regardless of where the perpetrators are from..What's ur point?..That perhaps the Yorubas influenced this man to do this to his daughter since Igbos in SE are saints when it comes to sexual abuse, according to u.

No, young man. I never said so but what i mean is that you hardly get this evil among the SE igbos but on SW igbos who might have learnt that from the culture of the people in the SW. Moreover, the it is just rampart here in the SW. Just take a look on both medias. I think it is very high over here.

Buhari is working. President Body language is working. His body language has giving us $1.6 tril loss. Thanks for Baba go slow. BABA NORTH

Drchristian:
This is totally unfair, it is only on nairaland that igbo called their crimes yoruba or hausa's food

is igbo crime news food? shame on you igbos for saying "they have giving yorubas their food" for crimes commited and should be condemned by all Nigerians especially the tribe that caused it.

shame on you all.

I condem this evil act and pray that this man will never go on punished. Moreover, with do respect to every tribe, contrary to what you are saying about the igbos, SWners are the domicle of such act. You can never hear such case happening in the SE by an igbo but only igbos in the SW. Yes, igbos are notorious drug traffickers. That's a shameful biz that brings disgrace and reproach to them, but yorubas are far more notorious in ritual killings/internet scam.

Freemanan:

WHAT IS THIS?



RELIGION

True Christianity is not a religion though some people practise christian religion different from True Christian. Simple meaning of Religion is man's own way of getting to God: muhamad to allah, budha to their god, confunciounist, yoruba to sango ogun, igbo to ikenga agbala, etc but Christianity is God coming to man ie God in the flesh, Jesus seeking (came) to save man. Freeman, thou shall be free by the power of Jesus. Happy sunday
