PoliticsRe: Igboman Invested In Islamic Banking by ZnO: 12:41am On Jun 26, 2011
So you did not see at least one other non-hausa/fulani muslim on the list? Sharia banking is for muslims, irrespective of their state, yes or no? Don't be a fo-ol.

No risking being boko haramed while in the banking hall collecting money.

That Igbo man is no other than a muslim, Alhaji abdulazeez Ude. http://www.jaizinternationalplc.com/board_of_directors_management_staff.html

No decent Igbo (99.1 Christians/0.88 animists) man will touch sharia banking even with a long pole.

Direct from Dibu Ojerinde, Head of JAMB

Out of 1.4 million candidates that sat for the examination, a total of 99,195 chose University of Lagos.

Other universities with high demands include Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, with 89,760 applications; University of Nigeria, Nsukka, 88,177; Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, 84,719; and University of Benin with 80,976.

So preference is in that order:

Lagos (Yeah! Where  Nigerians from all walks of life cohabit)
ABU
UNN
UniZik
Benin

Where is U.I and Ife among the first five? Looks like life is ebbing out of them faster than some would admit.

Why not open your thread by naming names?
PoliticsRe: The Most Successful Nigerian Of All Time by ZnO: 12:53am On Jun 25, 2011
How do you define success?

1. Money? Fame? Power (at what level-political, industrial, educational, scientific, religious?). Authority? Entrepreneurial? Fulfillment? Quality? Quantity?

2. How far in life you traveled to achieve success on your own? (E.g. the son of a carpenter who becomes a president compared to the son of a president who took over from his father)


Without these distinctions, I am afraid your post is senseless.

Perhaps it will take the next big bad wolf, Bankole, to return them to PDP. Talk of a people without their own thinking cap. Some fraudulent persons have to think for them.lol

The foremost traditional ruler in Igboland, Eze Obidiegwu Onyesoh, has said he foresaw the appointment of Prof. Bart Nnaji as the minister of power four months ago. “It  was clear to me as early as four months ago that he was certainly the best man for the job,” said Onyesoh, the traditional ruler of Nri, the cradle of Igbo civilisation, in a statement issued yesterday in Awka, the Anambra State capital.

“This was why we honoured Prof. Nnaji with the traditional title of Akajioku of Igboland as part of the ceremony to mark the 1012th Igbo year and the beginning of a new planting season. “But at the conferment ceremony proper on Saturday, February 19, before a mammoth crowd in my place, which included included ambassadors and high commissioners from Venezuela, The Gambia, Sierra Leone, Congo and elsewhere, I was directed by the Spirit to change the title to Akajioku of Nigeria, which I complied with immediately to the hearing and applause of all who were present.”

Akajioku means the torch or light bearer. Onyesoh, an American-trained engineer, praised President Goodluck Jonathan for nominating Nnaji to serve as a member of the federal cabinet about to be formed.
“Much as it is the exclusive prerogative of His Excellency, the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, to assign portfolios to his ministers as he deems fit,” stated the traditional ruler, “Nigerians will appreciate it very much if Nnaji is made the minister of power.”

Continuing, he said, “the president has a clear vision of what he wants in the electric power sector and the person with the knowledge, integrity, industry and commitment to drive the implementation of the vision as contained in the Road Map for Power Sector Reform launched in Lagos last August 26 and in the Electric Power Sector Reform Act of 2005.”

He said the president must have found Prof. Nnaji exceedingly impressive in the last one year in the performance of duties as special adviser to the president on power and the chairman of the presidential task force on power as well as a member of the Presidential Action Committee on Power headed by the president himself.

Describing Nnaji as a formidable torch bearer in the country, the traditional ruler commended President Jonathan for heeding the advice of Nigerian engineers that the Ministry of Power be headed, for the first time, by a tested and proven power sector professional.

Court remands Abiola’s son in EFCC custody over alleged N35.5m scam

A LAGOS high court sitting in Ikeja yesterday remanded in custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), the second son of the late business mogul, Bashorun Moshood Kashimawo Olawale Abiola, Deji, over an alleged N35.5 million fraud.

Abiola was taken before Justice Adeniyi Onigbanjo for alleged stealing and fraudulent conversion. The EFCC alleged that Deji Abiola of the late prominent politician collected N35.5 million in 2008 from one Mr. Jide Jose, on the pretext of importing printing machines from Switzerland for him.

The anti-graft agency claimed that he never supplied the said machines to the complainant and had converted the money to personal use.

When the case came up for hearing yesterday, the EFCC counsel, Mr. Omeiza Adebola, asked the court to compel Abiola to take his plea and be properly arraigned.He also told the court that the matter had been before the court since September 2, 2010, insisting that the charge should be read to the defendant.

However, Abiola’s counsel, Mr. A. B. Kasumu, objected to his arraignment, arguing that they had just been notified about the process. Kasumu said the defendant who had been enjoying administrative bail granted him by the EFCC had come to court out of his own volition. He added that Abiola should be granted sufficient time to consult with his lawyers before taking his plea as guaranteed by the right to fair hearing.

Kasumu also asked the court to grant his client bail or remand him in EFCC custody pending the filing of the bail application to be heard at the next adjournment.The matter was adjourned till June 30, 2011 for Abiola’s arraignment.

The best thing that will happen to naija is to merge all states in each zones into one, so that we have six states. In the absence of that, we should have equal states in all zones. That has always being my own argument.
