Senate To Pass Whistle-blower Protection Bill In July by DONSMITH123(m): 7:19pm On May 15, 2017
President of the Senate, Dr Bukola Saraki, has said that the Senate will pass the Whistle Blower Protection Bill in July, 2017.

He made this known at the launch of “Antidotes for Corruption: The Nigerian Story”, a book written by Sen. Dino Melaye, on Monday in Abuja.

Saraki said that when backed by legislation, whistle-blowing would have greater value “and it is hoped that we can pass it before July this year”.

According to him, other anti-corruption legislation being considered by the Senate, include the Proceeds of Crime Bill, the Special Anti-Corruption Court, which will be done through constitutional amendment and the Mutual Assistance in Criminal Matters Bill.

Saraki said that the executive and legislature must work hard to make it difficult for proceeds of corruption to find any hope.

I doubt the rogues.


WHAT HAVE FATHERS DONE TO DESERVE THIS?
Have you noticed that all the good songs only celebrate mothers? Try this one:

Who sat and watched my infant head
When sleeping on my cradle bed
And tears of sweet affection shed?
My mother.

Or this one:

Sweet mother, I no go forget you
For dis suffer wey you suffer for me eh....

The Yoruba people are not left out.

Iya ni wura iyebiye, ti a ko le fowora
O loyun mi f'osu mesan,
O pon mi fodun meta,
Iya ni wura iyebiye, ti a ko le fowora

Sometimes, it could even get slightly abusive

Mummy oooo, waa pe l'aye
Mummy oooo, wa jeun omo
Eni ba ni ko ni ribe, a fo loju,
A kan lapa, a ko senu trailer, a ku tu e!

Do you know the popular song for Fathers?

A ti gbe Baba re'le eeeee
A ti gbe Baba re'le
A ti gbe eeeeee
A ti gbe eeeee, Baaba re 'le

One mischievous person chose this for Fathers

Baba o, Baba o, Baba o
Oluwa da Baba si FUN WA
Unfortunately, that song is not praying that the Father should leave long to enjoy the work of his hands. No! That song is just praying for the father so that they can continue to milk him dry (Oluwa da Baba si FUN WA!)

*The question now is what exactly have fathers done to deserve this*

the bill should not forget to state the penalty for false whistle blowing. the policy should also capture people in possession of small arm and light weapons so as to nip in the bud,the raising cases of herdsmen onslaughts on innocent citizens.

Re: Senate To Pass Whistle-blower Protection Bill In July by Teewhy2: 8:26pm On May 15, 2017
Bill or law is not the major problem in Nigeria but following the bill/law by letters. Some people always prove to be above the law. Whistle blowing in Nigeria is almost as twice risky as the money involved. The members of the law enforcement agencies are the ones that will tell the culprits who blew the whistle.

Re: Senate To Pass Whistle-blower Protection Bill In July by Nigeriadondie: 8:30pm On May 15, 2017
Why not now. Why wait till July. It is so laughable that thieves wud make laws against stealing. What about the mere 2 years which is too short a sentence for one who steal billions. Why dont we adopt the Chinese model- death penalty. Imagine a senate with characters like rogues like Theodore Orji, robbers like Saraki, nuisance like Dino Melaye, hypocrites like Shehu Sani, senseless Ben Bruce with his empty common sense rants wud make any meaningful laws for the progress of this nation. With such people making laws u can only wonder how hopeless and futureless and useless that nation wud be as it is d case with Nigeria that is doomed far beyond redemption
