size38: What do u expect from a house filled with hundred criminals? Otedola called them hungry people and non has the guts to challenge him anywhere. House of reps members are talking trash to me. I wonder oo. They are on vengeance mission. Looking an avenue to bolster their battered image. I will be watching these guys closely, and of course be having a good laugh. Otedola dealt them a crude blow, now they want another scar from NOI. |

THIS IS NOT ABOUT BUDGET, THE SIT IS GETTING HOTTER, THEY HAVE TO IMPEACH GEJ BEFORE THIS WHOLE SUBSIDY SCAM SWALLOWS THEM AND END THEM ALL IN JAIL , AS MORE CASES WILL SOON BE UNCOVERED. FOR NOW ITS THE CHILDREN OF TUKOR AND THE REST THAT ARE INDICTED, SOON THE PARENTS WILL SOON BE EXPOSED. AND IT SEEMS LIKE GEJ IS TRYING TO BE TRANSPARENT, WHICH MOST POLITHIEFCIANS IN NIGERIA HATE. |

Ufeolorun:You are the one who has a verifiable antecedent abi? It's not so difficult to recognize a fool when you see one. Look at you who may not have even passed economics at SSCE level come to question the intellect of someone, whom the whole world has come to acknowledge was the best candidate for the world bank job. Back to the issue at hand, if you fight corruption, corruption will fight you back. You guys want Okonjo to implement that over inflated and padded budget, so that you will come back to summon her and ask" who approved the release of these funds" It will not work. |

The only choice to be made here is the choice of whether, as a Nigerian, you want to be lied to or not by your Government. If Okonjo Iweala is really lying to you, you ought to stand up against that. Rather than create a web of lies to sooth your fickle mind there, why not instead demand that the truth be revealed to you and you mature yourself to the point where nothing but the truth matters. 2 Likes |

Everyone knows they are overpaid thugs but Okonjo Iweala lied and she's also incompetent. The subsidy probe and the protest totally laid her bare. You cannot discount peoples assertion just because they are overpaid thieves, Assess it. 2 Likes |

thomason: She is the Finance Minister, I believe she has the figure. It is not enough for the Reps to dispute her figures without evidence. The onus is on those who dispute her figure to support theirs with evidence. Disputing her figures, and asking us to believe you, is akin to taking us for a ride. The reps, as we know it, have serious integrity issue. Anyone who believes them without questioning need serious head examination. |

I think you should keep up with your own logic. ozoebuka1: Most of us are undecisive... We cant even make a choice of our own! Just because those wicked reps told gej -be careful of okonjo's advice- weve already started critizing okonjo, isnt that woman try? gej should be at alert against those rep! aint they the the ones that want to impeach him... how can someone who wanna kill you be giving u good advice, huh? think! think!! and think!! I could now from your follow up say something like "The wicked reps are also imperfect beings striving towards perfection -- and you can't just forget the good works they have done just because of one little mistake. . . " Do you think that sounds about right? Impeachment has nothing to do with killing anyone. If you cannot do the job, the company firing you as a result does not mean the company holds a grudge against you or that you are evil or something. It is simply a matter of looking at the numbers. If you are too expensive to keep aboard, they get rid of you, hire someone else who can do a better job and life goes on. That is what impeachment is about. That seat no be any person papa property, and so do not expect that there is a guarantee of some sort that you must sit tight, no matter how bad you are, in that seat until when you want to leave it. By the way, there is no such thing as one little mistake, especially when it comes to the ruling of 150 million lives. 1 Like |

"Take away real power from president"....... Jonathan is not a weakling; he's a puppet for the true president of this country; who enriches himself and his economy by making us pay the price!. If you look closely; jonathan has no real power in this country... He can't put the pension funds folks to dock; nor the d subsidy folks..... He knows what is right but he doesn't have the power to implement it!!! |

Okonjo must go . Someone said she master minded the whole fuel subsidy scam brouhaha. I toht, I read somewhere that the scam itself was partly questionable. Fuel subsidy was the only benefit Ngerian masses where enjoying from the govt. Politicians and there cohorts have always defrauded Nigerians - long before the subsidy scheme. I am not supporting corruption or similar. I just think okonjo should be sacked, OBJ rejected her , the world bank has denied her . What more proof of her incompetence do we need to see. All the money being looted here and there, do not come under the minstry of finance. We need more lamido"s, obj"s and okorocha"s. Not gluttons like okonjo and her sister diezani both of whom have no prior qualifications in either fields. GEJ is misbehaving because he thinks the ND is solidly behind him. Let him nt frgt the ND votes are nt what brought him to power - Mr president show some gratitude ! |

Bukkyade: are you in Nigerian @ all, or let me rephrase do you read newspapers or listen to news on television? Clearly you cannot answer my question so turn the tables on me .Anyone can ask the question whether Riz Khan or Al Jazeera. Or is there some kind of exclusivity on who may ask questions?? Personally I am irrelevant as are my location or reading habits. My question was what "good works" has this woman done in Nigeria? Once again? Just two examples would do here |

Profile in excellence which haters and ignorance cannot wish away. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala The undisputable power-house in the Jonathan administration, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, who doubles as the Coordinating Minister for Economy and Minister of Finance, no doubt, added credibility to the cabinet based on her formidable credentials locally and internationally. A stickler for probity and excellence, Okonjo-Iweala’s persistent campaign for the effective management of the nation’s resources informed the government’s decision to adopt fiscal discipline, cut down on waste, and rein in debt and the budget deficit, especially in the 2012 budget. This resulted in slight reduction of recurrent expenditure this year. Her target, however, is to cut recurrent spending to about 65 per cent of the total budget by 2015 so that more resources can be deployed on capital projects. The minister, who narrowly lost her bid for the presidency of World Bank, has worked on rebuilding the nation’s decimated savings in the Excess Crude Account (ECA), which currently stands at $4.3 billion, and this is despite the monthly withdrawals by the three tiers of government. She has also been in negotiations with the 36 states of the federation to start up the Sovereign Wealth Fund as a replacement for the ECA. Under her watch, the government established the Subsidy Re-investment Programme, through which savings accruing to the three tiers of government from the partial removal of the subsidy on petrol, can be deployed to projects. In her bid to keep the public informed on the savings, her ministry each month publishes the figures accruing to the federal, states and local governments under SURE-P. The finance minister is carrying out bio metric evaluation of federal civil servants to reduce waste. The exercise is yoelding fruits as it uncovered the pension scam of over 32 billion. The scam involved Abubakar Kigo, a former perm sec at the office of the head of civil service of the federation and 5 others. There is the new integrated online payment system which helps the minister monitor transfer of public funds from CBN. This system also ensures that suspicious allocations in the budget are blocked. Corrupt minds are not happy with these stringent measures hence the outcry 3 Likes |

I keep wondering, between a politician and a professional economist with about 25years experience in developmental economics at World Bank level, with an Ivy league PhD, who do you believe their figure about Economic indices? As much as Soludo is a Professor of Econometrics, i will look again at his figures against NOI's. If not for some emotional reasons, how can somebody accept a political spokesman figures in this kind of sensitive area against that of the custodian of the figure? It is baffling... but it fits the cause perfectly to shoot holes through everything this administration does. As Obama will put it in 2008, "if you have no records to run on, you make up your opponent as someone people should run from" We are watching... |
