This soullessly bland speech barely scratched the surface to address frontally the main causes of the #EndBadGovernance protest. He didn't say what and how he would do to tackle the following burning national issues:
#Hunger #HyperInflation #Insecurity #OverbloatedCabinet #HighCostOfGovernance #DeeplyEntrenchedCorruption
#ElectoralReforms #FuelSubsidy #ElectricityTariff

This speech really shows that there's definitely no hope in the horizon. Business still remains as usual.

10 things Tinubu said in Public Broadcast | #Politicsnigeria

This opata you just spewed truly epitomises your monicker on NL. Only a confirmed zombie talks like you. You are not from Rivers State and you are obviously clueless about the happenings in the state. Need I even tell you that one of the reasons Wike tried to have Governor Sim impeached was the fact that the incumbent Governor Sim promoted Rivers State civil servants at all levels - a lofty achievement which Wike failed abysmally in during his 8-year tenure of constantly impoverishing Rivers people?

Confirmedzombie:
This are opobo civil servants and igbos, other Rivers civil servants are not happy.

No salary, No promotion, No Arears payment.

Fubara is a failure like Peter obi,

14. "I have said before, there is no price too much to pay for peace. And with the realization that the worst peace is better than the best war, we will strive to make peace with all segments and interest groups without surrendering our freedom nor jeopardizing the interest and well-being of the good people of Rivers State who graciously entrusted us with their cherished mandate."

You see ehh, anyone who really understands communication would easily see that Governor Sim isn't in anyway backing down in this fight. He looks docile to the undiscerning but to those who can see, the man is a smart guy, who chooses his battles carefully. And from what I see, he will finish his first tenure and absolutely nothing will happen to him. He is gathering a great deal of support and momentum. The tide is in his favour. The only loser here is the the one who huffs and puffs empty smoke from his bile acid infested croaky throat.

Oh, well, it's a great thing that you kept your dignity intact by refusing to compromise your spirituality, faith and conscience. It's definitely not an easy place to be in. However, there are ways you could have held that ode of a boss to his balls without making any compromise or even losing your job in the process, but rather keep the stupid goat on his knees for as long as you wished. You could have used available technology to covertly film him. All it takes is to hatch a well-thought-out plan to set him up for his mighty downfall. This is where reverse blackmail comes in handy. But I'm not sure such an idea ever crossed your mind, or even if it did, you just didn't have the will to go through the trouble to protect yourself and your job. But all the same, kudos to you. Best wishes.

Happy to get an oil and gas job. Dream come true. Everything was perfect with me. 3 years into my job, a new boss showed up. A light skin Nigerian male. His wife and kids were in Canada. I visit the gym 3x per week.

He requested to go to the same gym. Pretended to work out and asked that I mentored him. It all happened fast. I thought he was responsible as he was married. He started touching my body inappropriately. Caressing my chest holding my arms. Thought he was enamored by the muscles only. I would somehow break him off and redirect him to the session.

Then, after work it was about meeting me, talking to me, confiding in me. Initially, I was happy to build a close relationship with a boss. Of course, that's my career growth right there.

Not until, this night, he invited me over to his lounge. As soon i arrived, he undressed to a G-string, I was dazed for real. He tried to kissed me. I blocked it. Then, came the love, the feeling, and sex plea. So, I took my leave quickly. Felt disappointed and betrayed. I told no one but my bestie who laughed over it and made a mockery of the whole thing. Telling me that he would have busted his ass for the money.

All I needed was my job and no drama. He advanced toward me several times. Showered me with expensive stuff. I rejected everything he offered. I couldn't shake him anymore, no hugs, nothing. I felt truly perplexed cos he was very connected and has brothers and relatives in top positions in Chevron. I met with him, talked to him man to man politely. He told me he had been in it since he was 14. I asked him if he would love that life for his kids. He said, no! So, I told him that I have a faith, a conscience and a commitment to my God. That I would not entertain homosexuality. So, after more attempts, the hate set in.

Well, my final year in Chevron was horrendous until i finally got axed 17 months after my new boss showed up. I moved on with my dignity but with a bigger lesson in life. I kept it a secret for many years. Only my bestie new about it.

Many men are victims. People hardly believe the few who cry out. Many will question the authenticity of my history and blame me afterall. Making it harder for the next man to come out.

Many argue that they will beat, hit, or punch a man for advancing toward them. There are consequences. Read your room. Justice hardly comes in a world of injustice. Sometimes, the best thing to do is walk away.

The Office of Accountant General of the Federation disclosed that the shared revenue was contained in a communiqué issued by FAAC after its monthly meeting for April 2021 held through virtual conferencing.

The Director, Information, Press and Public Relations, OAGF, Henshaw Ogubike, revealed this in a statement issued in Abuja on Friday.

The statement was titled, ‘FAAC shares N616.886 billion APRIL 2021 revenue to FG, states and LGs.’

According to the statement, the gross statutory revenue for April 2021 was N429.733 billion, the gross revenue from the Value Added Tax was N164.340 billion and revenue from the exchange gain amounted to N2.250 billion.

The writer is contradicting himself. First he said the pastor is being an hypocrite for advising people to have a plan B while preaching faith.

At the same time, the writer said the idea of people “checking out” is not new, and mentioned a 80s advert, if the idea of leaving is not new, why criticize the pastor for saying something everyone else already knows?

The writer said, the pastor is having a privileged mentality, at the same time, he said even unprivileged people are either leaving or plan on leaving if u should check Twitter.

At the end of the day, let everybody do what works for them.

Kai....! Obviously, some people must have failed comprehension exercises in school. They can't even grasp the simple use of contrast in a write-up, yet they're quick to give a baseless criticism on something they barely comprehend.

FG, STATES HAVE RESOURCES TO PAY MINIMUM WAGE - REWANE

Bismarck Rewane, chairman of the Presidential Techni­cal Advisory Committee on the Implementation of the National Minimum Wage (PTAC), on Thursday, said both the Federal Government and state governments had no excuses not to pay the N30,000 minimum wage as they had the capacity to conveniently do so if they were willing.

Rewane, an economic and financial expert, disclosed this while featuring as a guest on Channels Television pro­gramme ‘Politics Today’ mon­itored by Daily Independent.

Nigerian workers, under the umbrella of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC), had staged a nationwide pro­test, kicking against the plan by both the Federal and state governments to freely negoti­ate the minimum wage with their workers in line with the nation’s federal system.

About a fortnight ago, the House of Representatives in­troduced a bill which, accord­ing to the sponsor, Hon. Garba Mohammed, would create room for a free negotiation of the minimum wage with federal and state workers in line with the nation’s federal system.
But the workers stressed that it was an attempt by some state governors and members of the National Assembly to short-change them.

According to Rewane, who is the Chief Executive Officer, Financial Derivatives Company Limited, the mini­mum wage law signed by the President in April 2019 made it a crime for anyone who em­ploys more than five people to pay less than N30,000 mini­mum wage both in the public and private sector.

He also added that the revenues of most states of the federation had gone up by hundred percent just as the minimum wage was also increased from N18,000 to N30,00.

He said: “The law that the President signed in 2019 after our team submitted our re­port was that everybody in Ni­geria, public or private sector, that employs more than five people must pay a minimum wage of N30,000 a month to its workers.

“And that anybody who pays less than N30,000 a month to any group of people of five and above is commit­ting a crime as far as the Na­tional Minimum Wage Law is concerned.

“On the issue of whether it is law that should be passed by the federal or state does not arise. As of today, it is a federal law and it is binding on all cit­izens, both in the private and public sector.

“The willingness to pay is the issue. Even if you have bil­lions of naira and you refuse to pay, that will be your own prerogative.But that cannot be al­lowed. You will be commit­ting a crime according to the Nigerian statute.

“The oil producing states were getting N9 billion a month but now are getting N18 billion a month; that is a hundred percent increase.If you go to the others who do not have oil, Imo State was getting N3 billion a month in 2017; Imo State is now getting about N5 billion a month in 2019. In other words, inspite of the fact that the minimum wage has increased from N18,000 to N30,000, their rev­enue profile has improved by a substantially more amount than their wage bill has in­creased.

“So, both the states and the Federal Government have the ability to pay and that has been provided for in the Ap­propriation Act of 2019, 2020, and 2021.

“In spite of the pandemic, you’ll find out that the profile of the revenues of the Ni­gerian government, both at the federal and state levels, is much more improved be­cause subsidies have reduced, VAT has increased, and also there are lots of cost reflective tariffs that have increased.”

While justifying the protest by the workers, Rewane said Nigerians needed to know how the governors had been utilising the revenues accru­ing to them both in the state and the federal monthly allo­cations.

“The question is, what do you now do with the money you have earned? Nigerian people are inter­rogating and saying we want to know how you have used the money to improve edu­cation, healthcare, and other facilities for the people to get a benefit.

“It is important to set the records straight for anyone who says that the states don’t have the resources to pay. The states have the re­sources to pay and can meet the obligation if they are will­ing to do it.”

Well, point of correction: Former President Jonathan contested and won the 2011 presidential election but lost to the incumbent president in the 2015 presidential election.

By the way, why is it that all that the political class of this country is concerned about is just power shift to the north or south? The British colonialists came here and plundered our land and bequeathed us with this divide-and-rule political arrangement, and since then we have been so deeply engrossed in fighting to preserve the arrangement instead of breaking free from it and forging a better national political ideology and arrangement for our country.

nope. Resumption moved to Tuesday then

It's wrong to assume. The Rivers State Government has exempted all teachers in the state from observing the 2020 World Teachers' Day. Consequently, all teachers are to resume duty on Monday, 5th of October, 2020.

All these O levels examinations are no longer credible in recent times. So much malpractice goes on, yet they just want to keep conducting them year in year out without any quality assurance. My suggestion is to allow universities run A - level or pre-degree programmes for one year for students who will miss out on O-levels exams, to enable them gain Nigerian tertiary institutions admissions. We can always conduct NECO at our convenience when the current public health situation improves. When the effect of the pandemic is adjudged less critical, students who are still interested can register for WAEC at their convenience any other year.

Suggesting that universities should conduct pre-degree or A'Level programs is tantamount to putting the cart before the horse. No one qualifies to do a pre-degree program in a university without possessing the O'Level certificate.

ChyChy17:
WAEC is uniform and can't be controlled individually by states.

More than that, WAEC is a regional body, with 5-member West African countries. The HQ is in Accra Ghana. My only concern is: why does our government think that it is safer to conduct elections in two states (Edo and Ondo) with a combined figure of 4 million registered voters, whereas the total number of registered candidates for WAEC is not even up to 2 million all over the country? While billions of naira will be wasted conducting some sham elections for their own personal gains, they just can't afford to provide Personal Protective Equipment (PPEs) for students across the country. Such is the trajectory of our political space. Sad and unfortunate.

Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo says whenever he wants to sack a public official who has been found to be corrupt, he gets many calls from religious and political leaders not to do so.

Speaking on at 24th Nigerian Economic Summit plenary on corruption and rule of law, in Abuja on Monday, the vice-president said the Nigerian elite are often times in the way of getting rid of a corrupt official.

Ngaire Woods, the founding dean of Blavatnik School of Government at Oxford University, who moderated the plenary asked Ossinbajo to tell the summit who calls him when he wants to sack someone corrupt.

In his response, Osinbajo said: “I would like to refer to the Nigerian elite, and it’s probably not fair to be that broad, but practically, every segment, because people who have access to you, they could be political leaders, religious leaders, business leaders, whoever has access to you.

“We have a system where people just feel like, ‘why don’t you just give this guy a break?’ Which again is part of the problem. You don’t get one call, you get several calls.”

The vice-president said the government is doing so much to tackle grand corruption and systemic corruption; stating that since he became vice-president, he has seen how much impact corruption can have on a country — and its more than he ever imagined.

Osinbajo, who was commissioner of justice and attorney general in Lagos state for eight years, said one of the most frustrating parts of the fight against corruption for him is the slow pace of prosecution.

He, however, added that the two conviction of former executive governors secured by the federal government has shown that the hand of justice may be slow, but it would eventually catch up.

The professor of law said reforms are important, and the federal government has embarked on a number of them, including the criminal justice reform, but the federal government cannot reform state judiciaries.

The vice-president sacked Lawal Daura, former director general of the Department of State Services (DSS).

He was also involved in the suspension of Ayo Oke, former director general of National Intelligence Agency (NIA) and Babachir Lawal, former secretary to the government of the federation (SGF).

Good observation. NUT zonal elections are coming up next week. If you know delegates from your various schools, kindly advise them to vote wisely. Moreover, given the fact that the present NUT Executive in the state are just a bunch of lap dogs of the Rivers State Governor, it's high time we the 2013 set of teachers got involved in NUT affairs. Just imagine the illicit deductions made from our meagre salaries in the name of NUT dues, and yet the bunch of lazy NUT leaders can't effectively represent the overall interest of teachers' welfare.

The time is now.

Rexmarysweet:
The NUT Chairman in Rivers State is indeed a mistake of a Man in leadership. For the fact that Rivers State Govt keep crediting our dues to them monthly,they don't care about our welfare.

To play on Teachers intelligence, a times he will come on air and shout about promotion and arrears and you won't hear from him again for at least four months,he will shout again, go mute for another four months.

GOVERNOR NYESOM WIKE’S FORGED CERTIFICATE CASE GETS REAL; AS APPLICANT SEEKS HIS DISQUALIFICATION FROM 2019 ELECTIONS.

What has been a rumor in Rivers State about Governor Nyesom Wike presenting a forged Certificate of Age to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has taken a life of its own as one Achinike William-Wobodo Esq., an electorate in Rivers State and also a Lawyer, has dragged INEC and the Governor to the Federal High Court (Suit No. FHC/ABJ/CS/1020/2018). The case was brought pursuant to Section 182(1)(j) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended), seeking the Court to disqualify Barr. Nyesom Wike, Governor of Rivers State from participating in the 2019 General Governorship Election.

The complaint of the Applicant was that in 1999/2000, when Nyesom Wike intended to contest for the Obio/Akpor Local Government Area Council (LGA) Chairmanship Election, he was less than 35 years which was the announced age at the time for LGA Chairmanship. In order to qualify himself for that election, Mr. Wike procured someone who deposed to an Affidavit that he was born on 13th March, 1963, which made him eligible for that election. The said affidavit was allegedly made in 1986 and wherein copious reference was made of Obio/Akpor LGA, which was not in existence as at 1986. The LGA was created in 1989.

Curiously, the Affidavit titled Statutory Declaration of Age was also allegedly deposed to at the High/Chief Magistrate Court, yet had a stamp, purportedly, of the Probate Registry. There was no identification or stamp of the person who allegedly administered the Oath as Commissioner for Oath as required by Oaths Act 1963. The Applicant alleged that the Governor had reasons to have known that the Age Declaration which he presented to INEC as his Age Certificate was forged, because even his date of Birth earlier submitted in his documentations with INEC was 13th December 1967. The Applicant also claimed to have known the Governor from 1991, when they were both of the same Faculty of Law in the Rivers State University of Science and Technology, Port Harcourt and that the Governor had always presented his date of birth as 13/12/1967, that this made the Governor 50 years of age in 2017, and that this was consistent with the Governor’s 50th Birthday Celebrations last year in Port Harcourt.

It was alleged that in the buildup to the 2015 Governorship Election in Rivers State, some social media platforms published that the Governor had an unresolved conflict around his age and threatened to publish same. It was in a bid to maintain consistency in his age that Governor Wike represented the forged Certificate of Age to INEC, which has now put him into a stronger dilemma.

The Applicant gave particulars of forgery, which includes: (1) that the document lied against/about itself, (2) that the content was made of manifest inconsistent, inexplicable and irreconcilable falsehoods, (3) the information regarding the age of the Governor was false, and to the knowledge of the Governor, (4) that the Governor intended that INEC should act on the document as genuine, (5) that INEC acted on the document as genuine, (6) that the Constitution of Nigeria talks about presentation of forged certificate, it will be immaterial that the Governor claims he did not forge the document by himself, etc.

A very close source to Governor Ezenwo Nyesom Wike, who spoke on condition of anonymity revealed that the Governor and his Party (PDP) are doing everything to suppress and frustrate the case. The source added that Governor Wike admits that the case is a very bad one and that the timing has made the situation even worse. Our source also revealed that the Governor had hoped that APC would not have been able to decipher a cause of action from his said certificate saga. He expressed shock that Mr. Wobodo was able to weave a very strong case out of the situation.

Governor Wike and his team have resolved that their strategy would be to frustrate the case, right now he has directed his personal staff not to receive service of any court processes.

A call to the Governor Wike on his mobile phone did not yield any results as he failed to take or return his call.

When the Applicant was contacted, he simply said it was not time to speak on the matter. “Please, this is not the time for me to speak about this matter. My priority now is to serve the Governor and to have him appear in Court to respond to the issues. We can speak afterwards.”
