Former Governor Nyako blasts EFCC for declaring him wanted

Posted: 04 Feb 2015 12:32 PM PST

Earlier today, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, released a statement saying former Adawama state governor, Murtala Nyako is wanted for stealing, abuse of office and money laundering. (see here). Mr. Nyako has reacted, blasting EFCC and saying declaring him wanted is the 'last kicks of a dying horse".

Mr. Nyako spoke to Premium Times through his media assistant, Ahmed Sajoh
"I am not aware of being declared wanted. But that is good. If you are wanted by a rouge system, it means you are a good person. Has this government gone after anybody that is bad? They only run after the good people and allow the bad people to roam around them, live happily and enjoy whatever bad things they are doing."
The former governor also blasted the government saying he is not surprised that EFCC declared him wanted and said that many more Nigerians will be declared wanted by the government because they are intimidated by the large crowd that turned out for the APC, rally in Yola, Adamawa.

According to him, the Jonathan government is afraid that even when he (Nyako) was no longer in office, the people of Adamawa State still love and support him.
"When the time comes for them to be declared wanted nobody will sympathise with them," he concluded.

We go walk”, the ultimate Christian love song (Dr. Paul ft. Anastasia & Frank George)

Posted: 04 Feb 2015 12:04 PM PST

Dr. Paul has just dropped a fresh single for Christian lovers and marriages titled "We Go Walk". This song combines the lyrical finesse of a good song writer, poetic sophistication and very good musical arrangement. To top it all, is the touch of a good producer who understands how to combine top level talents and voices with good instrumentation. Continue...



Anastasia and Frank George are accomplished vocalists who made their debuts into the musical scene last year with their singles, "A Grateful Heart" and "I Know You Love Me", respectively. Frank's distinctive rough and cracky rock voice resembles that of Rod Stewart, Bono and Mick Jagger, who are rock exponents.

Soludo strikes again, claims additional N8.6 trillion 'stolen' under Okonjo-Iweala

Posted: 04 Feb 2015 11:58 AM PST

In his last article, former CBN governor, Charles Soludo said that at least N30 trillion of Nigeria's money has 'either been stolen or unaccounted for, or grossly mismanaged over the last few years' under Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala as Finance Minister. He released a statement today saying that money doesn't include about N8.6 trillion the African Union claims is stolen from Nigeria annually. His statement after the cut...



I STAND BY MY STATEMENTS
Chukwuma Charles SOLUDO, CFR
1. My attention has been drawn to statements credited to the Hon. Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, in response to my latest article and call for a structured debate on the issues. According to the report, she no longer wants to join issues with me. In the circumstance of the moment, I therefore withhold parts two and three of my promised three-part response.

2. Let me also state for the avoidance of doubt that I stand by every statement I made in the two articles viz: (1) "Buhari Vs Jonathan: Beyond the Elections"; and (2) "Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala and the Missing Trillions". In particular, I insist that over N30 trillion has either been stolen or unaccounted for, or grossly mismanaged over the last few years. This figure does not include the estimated $40.9 billion (N8.6 trillion at parallel market exchange rate or nearly two years' Federal Government budget) which the African Union's (AU) recent report claims to be "stolen" from Nigeria each year.
3. I wish to thank Nigerians all over the world who have been contributing to this timely debate. This is election time and it is expected that some vested interests will either choose to live in denial or attempt to politicise the issues. But from the debate so far, I am convinced that our economic management won't be the same again. Once our managers know that the citizens will rigorously and vigorously challenge them to account, the welfare of the citizens will be better for it. Whoever wins has his job cut out for him, and to the extent that this debate has challenged the respective teams to seriously re-examine their blueprints to guarantee the security and prosperity of every Nigerian, my objective is accomplished. I love my country Nigeria, and as I said before, I won't keep quiet again.
Once more, Nigeria must survive and prosper beyond Buhari or Jonathan!

Defence HQ says Nigeria's Territorial Integrity Remains Intact

Posted: 04 Feb 2015 04:57 AM PST

Find the Defence HQ statement below
"The Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF) in which Nigeria, Niger, Cameroon, and Chad have contingents are part of the ongoing onslaught against terrorists in this region. The countries that make up the Lake Chad Basin Commission also had some understanding, which now enables a massive move against terrorists from all angles. Contrary to the impression being pushed in some quarters, it is the Nigerian forces that planned and are driving the present onslaught against terrorists from all fronts in Nigeria; not the Chadian Forces as is being propagated by some media.
For instance Chadian forces have been deployed in Baga Sola, which is a Chadian territory. There have been some joint deployments and patrols around Kirawa, Ashgashiya and other locations in borders of Cameroun, Nigeria and Chad as part of these operations. Chadians and others are however keying into and working in concert with the overall plan for an all-round move against the terrorists as agreed. Nigeria's territorial integrity remains intact".
