Resignation not in our character

Then, progressive Nigerian youth needs to install that into our DNA......

In Nigeria when politicians refused to resign, the very oppressed masses from that part of Nigeria that did not vote for PMB will admonish them to stay put. The Senate has hurriedly started amending laws that fight corruption instead of removing their corrupt leader.

The Spain’s industry minister has resigned over allegations he had links to offshore companies by the panama papers.
Jose Manuel Soria said he had tendered his resignation “in light of the succession of mistakes committed along the past few days, relating to my explanations over my business activities and considering the obvious harm that this situation is doing to the Spanish government.”
Soria’s troubles began on Monday when Spanish online daily El Confidencial, which has had access to the Panama Papers where millions of files leaked from law firm Mossack Fonseca said he was an administrator of an offshore firm in 1992.
Soria called a news conference to deny any link to the company, but as the week went by, more allegations emerged from other media outlets, revealing further alleged connections to offshore havens.
It is unclear as yet whether any of his alleged actions were illegal.
Iceland’s Prime Minister Sigmundur David Gunnlaugsson was also forced to resign over the leaks some weeks ago.
The Senate president, Bukola Saraki, who is also facing charges bordering on false asset declaration at the Code of Conduct tribunal is also named having offshore assets in the Panama papers leak.

There is no difference btw jimoh ibrahim and pat utomi...... Both good in theory professor class but in real practical aspect of what they preach, they are real failure......

Saraki wanted to amend CCT act,
He contacted
Peter Nwaoboshi......Delta North(PDP) to move the motion.
He lured Ike Ekweremadu(PDP)to preside over the house.
# Lessons
If you want to do evil, use PDP.
If you want to do dirty job, use South East and South South.
Kwessions or Questions!
Does it mean that nobody can do it for Saraki in APC?
Does it mean that nobody from the North can sponsor such for Saraki?
Yet, they claimed that dey get sense pass almajiri. ...........

C. B. N need to as a matter urgency make a statement on how the usage is applicable.. Can access the Yuan from the local bank.. Is it possible to make online transactions etc.. So we need more information on this.. Femi Adesina Garba Shehu.

With the currency swap deal signed yesterday, the Yuan is now free to flow among different banks in Nigeria and our business men and women can now access machineries , factory spare parts etc from China at a very affordable rate without bordering about dollar rates. In other words you can settle your trade deals with China in Yuan.
It's a beautiful development.

– Dangote explains challenges associated to growth of Africa’s economy – States how they create their own power in every country they go Alhaji Aliko Dangote, Africa’s richest man, has finally revealed the secret to his unrivaled success on the continent. Dangote, who recently dropped in the world’s richest billionaire’s list, explained further how the challenge of electricity was adversely affecting the growth of the continent’s economy, Daily Post reports. The president of Dangote group, who was speaking at the Africa CEO forum in Abidjan, informed that, “Where I come from, which is Kano in Nigeria, we have over 20 million people and we are sharing 35 megawatts only. “So when we started business as a group, we said that we would not go into the national grid. Every single country that we are operating in, we would create, generate our own power and that is why we have been very, very successful.” Speaking also during the event, president of the African Development Bank (AfDB), Akinwumi Adesina, stated that Africa must seek ways to light up the continent. He said: “If you walk in the dark, you’ll stumble and you will fall. But if you walk in the light, you will constantly see thing ahead of you. “The problem is, in Africa, you have today 645 million people without electricity. You have the GDP in which the cost of not having electricity is about four to five percent shaved off. “We cannot be competitive when it comes to value adding. We cannot industrialise because we have no electricity. The kids cannot go to school because we have no electricity. “Vaccines can’t be in hospitals because we have no electricity, and business are operating at very high cost, using diesel. In other words, what is the emergency power supply system has become the normal power supply system – no way! “And as Africa Development Bank, I know that the very blood of Africa’s transmission and life is what we do.”

DSS are Rascals; Fayose storms Aso Villa, clashes With Buhari and Promise to Teach Him a Lesson
The Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has warned President Muhammadu Buhari to eschew any plan of declaring a state of emergency in Ekiti and Rivers states.
Governor Fayose stated this on Monday, March 21, while speaking with State House Correspondents, in Aso Rock, shortly after taking part in the economic retreat organized by the National Economic Council, NEC, at the old Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa.
He maintained that his government is aware that President Buhari was planning a state of emergency in Rivers State over the bloody election rerun that took place over the weekend.
Recall that the All Progressives Congress, APC, had requested that President Buhari declares a state of emergency in Rivers State, in order to forestall political violence and the breakdown of law and order in the state.
“It is obvious that Governor Wike has lost control of the state. As the chief security officer of the state, his primary duty is to secure lives of the people in the state but he has failed to do this. The crisis in Rivers State could have ended if not for the unwillingness of “powerful people” in government in the state, “APC had said.
Speaking further, Fayose said if he went ahead with the plan, Buhari would be thought a lesson that power belongs to the people and not their leaders.
“They have been insinuating that (state of emergency) too in Ekiti. We have been waiting for them. Power has gone beyond the leaders; power has gone back to the people.

Another marketing strategy...... Naija i hail thee!

Ahh! Last time a senior advocate of Nigeria (SAN) Rickey Tarfa went to court with 90 SAN/lawyers. Today a senate president Bukola Saraki went to court with 80 Lawyers. Who knows how many lawyers former EFCC chairman Lamurde will hired when facing a court. Anyway, He who is guilty is the one who has much to say. All i wish and for, is a better Nigeria.

Nigerian lawyers making mockery of the law profession.if he likes let him go there with judges of the supreme Court.

It getting too much of kogi state... From audu to ocholi!

Hmm, what a shame in Nigeria police... We should all play our part to make Nigeria great!

whoever thinks women do not keep secrets, had not watched "the desperate house wives" women gossip on irrelevants and keep their matrimonial and serious issues to heart. when a woman tells you she hits her head against the door, she must have been beaten by her man. bravo to women jooor.

My friend, Bola Imam, said there are three ways of communicating:

* Telephone

* Television and,

* Tell-a-woman

He believes secrets are generally not safe with women. I disagreed sharply with him. Men are generally the kiss-and-tell type. When they huddle together at joints, they are discussing things which are better kept
secret between them and their wives. If u see two women engaged in small talk, they
aren't discussing their family secrets, maybe
hair, nail polish, shoes, bags and cloths, but
not deep family secrets.
That's my view.
So, folks, let's take our minds off our
'akuwarapa' economy and 'abiku' politics to
focus on ourselves.
You are either a man or a woman. So, there
is that clear demarcation. TGIF!
Happy weekend everyone!

I like this. You must be licensed to preach.....

EL-RUFAI NEW LAWS * In Kaduna you cannot preach without license * Every preacher will have to go and get ONLY one year license (renewable every year). That is, you must always preach without an expired license or you risk 2 years imprisonment. * If you invite any external preacher (i.e. preacher outside kaduna state), such a person must be licensed for the duration of his/her stay and the body issuing the license has the right to reject external preacher they feel is not qualify to preach in Kaduna state. * Every preacher who want to be licensed will appear before a screening committee. If he/she scales through, he/she will only be given licensed for one year. * The law criminalizes the use of CDS, Flash Drive and other communication gadgets except in religious building or inside your house. * That means, you will be arrested for listening to preaching or religious music inside your cars or in any open place except in your house or religious building. * If you preach without license, you are guilty of offense punishable with 2 years imprisonment or a fine of 200,000. You can’t use microphone in your church after 8pm you are guilty of offense punishable with 2 years’ imprisonment or a fine of 200,000. * Since all preaching must be done within a building, it means public evangelism will be criminalized. Those who preach early morning, known by some as morning cry and preaching inside bus if arrested will be fined N200,000. * This could also means, people will not be allowed to go out for evangelism on streets or move with vehicles with address systems to advertise their programs.

One day, we all will get tired of them and their two heads will only mean that many heads will roll.

Aliko Dangote has two heads. Forget it. He
had the road paved for him by petechial
government policies aimed at fostering his
monopolies in the sale of rice, sugar and
cement.
If u are lucky or connected enough to get
waivers on imported goods for just 3
months, u'll see how your billions will roll in.
Peter Odili has two heads. After 8 yrs as
governor of one of the richest states, he
understandably had questions to answer at
the EFCC. What did he do? He went to court
and the courts gave him an order
restraining the EFCC from investigating him
not to talk of arresting him.
Our monarchs have two heads. They receive
pay from government coffers and are never
taxed. Now we are hearing that many
palaces of their royal highnesses have
become the abode of paedophiles who
forcefully take away nubile minors and turn
them to baby factories.
All those mentioned in connection with
Halliburton have two heads. After their
American accomplices have been jailed in
Uncle Sam's country, those at the Nigerian
end are still walking freely and threatening
us with their ill-gotten money.
Governors like Sen Isiaq Ajimobi of Oyo have
two heads. Four years going on five now,
we've not had a Local Government election.
The LG Law of Oyo State is not worth more
than the paper it is printed upon. LG
Allocations which ought to be appropriated
by elected Councillors are now spent with
the authority of circulars signed by a man or
woman not known to law.
Our Senate President has two heads. At a
time many of his countrymen are unable to
transport themselves due to liquidity
squeeze and those with cars cannot run
them because of cost and scarcity of fuel, he
has splashed about N300m on fancy
automobiles to sate his ego.
So, when next u see the musician Olamide,
tell him Dangote, Otedola, Adenugba, OBJ,
IBB etc have two heads.
God did not create anybody with two heads
but our men of power have acquired extra
ones for themselves.
Nigeria is distinctly a nation of inequalities.
To remedy that, we need leaders who will
help us relieve our powerful men of their
extra heads.
The Orwellian system of one animal being
more equal than others does not augur well
for our progress.
May God have mercy on the Federal Republic
of Nigeria.
