Unfortunately, the growth of the ND states isn't that rapid enough but I fear more for the Northern states which are currently experiencing a negative growth margin. 30 Likes 1 Share |

They will never want to hear the truth. They prefer blaming one Alhaji from the North that also stole from.his state but constructed good roads for his people with the same allocation the ND states were taken, despite not having 13% derivation, IOCs funds, Amnesty Programme, Min of Niger Delta and NDDC. 31 Likes 1 Share |

Hypocrite!!! Is this not the masari that lied to collect 11 billion naira bailout fund. The governor of President Muhammadu Buhari’s home State, Katsina, Aminu Masari, lied to the president to get more than N11 billion bailout supposedly to pay workers’ salary arrears, PREMIUM TIMES can authoritatively report today. Feigning insolvency, Katsina State applied as one of the 27 states in need of bailout from the Federal Government to pay workers owed salaries for months. In a letter to the speaker of the state’s House of Assembly, titled: “Bailout on Outstanding Salary for Workers of the State and Local Governments” with number S/SGKT/154/3 dated August 26, 2015, Mr. Masari said when he took office on May 29, his government inherited two months outstanding salary of workers of the state and local government from the previous Ibrahim Shema administration. “I would like to request for the Honourable House’s consent for the State government to collaborate with the Central Bank of Nigeria for a Bail Out of outstanding workers’ salary in the State and Local governments,” Mr. Masari wrote. “Mr Speaker may wish to know that at the time of the take-off of this administration, the State and Local Governments in the State owed workers two months’ salary to the tune of N11,086,632,741.32 broken down as follows: Katsina State: N3,646,943,099.80; 34 local government councils: N7,439,689,641.32; Total: N11,086,632,741,.32. “It is in the view of the need for the State Government and Local Governments to meet their obligation in the payment of outstanding workers’ salary, considering the lean resources inherited from the former administration, that it has become necessary for the State Government to apply for the bail out on behalf of the State and Local Governments.” he added. However, PREMIUM TIMES’ investigation revealed that the state had no business being among the group of insolvent states in need of federal bailout to pay workers salary arrears. Katsina State civil servants as well as workers in the state’s 34 local governments received their full salaries and allowances up to May when Mr. Masari became governor. In fact, the governor’s chief press secretary, Abdul Labaran, confirmed to PREMIUM TIMES that workers were not owed and that their salaries had been completely paid up to August. “Katsina State government doesn’t owe anybody any salary,” Mr. Labaran said over the phone after a long pause. He also answered in the affirmative when asked if he meant that the state government had paid workers in the state up to August. “That is correct,” he said. However, when confronted with questions about why the government requested a bailout as contained in the letter to the state assembly from his principal, Mr. Labaran refused to answer saying he was not aware of any such letter. He also refused that the letter to be read to him. “I don’t know the letter you’re talking about. How do I know you’re quoting from the letter. You could be quoting from anywhere,” he said. Oluwabusola Olawale, a former media aide of the immediate past governor, Ibrahim Shema, seemed shocked when asked if the last administration bequeathed two months unpaid salaries to the present administration of Mr. Masari. “Throughout the tenure of Ibrahim Shema, workers’ salaries were paid latest on the 25th of every month. As at May both the state and local government salaries were paid on the 25th. So he left office without owing any worker any salary. So this news is strange to us. We don’t know what could have necessitated this letter,” he said. “There is definitely no justification to ask for a bailout of two months salary,” he said. The N338 billion federal bailout, paid by the Central Bank of Nigeria, was authorised by President Buhari to help insolvent states that had failed to pay workers for months. The loan is repayable with an interest of nine per cent over a 20-year period. By August 31, Kwara, Zamfara and Osun States had received the bailout to clear their backlogs of salaries. Twenty seven states are expected to receive the aid. Amongst other conditions for the accessing the credit, the CBN requires the resolutions of the respective state executive council mandating the loan, and an approval from the House of Assembly. Also, the state must issue an Irrevocable Standing Payment Orders (ISPOs) to ensure timely repayment of the loan from the state’s Federation Account allocations. The CBN said it gives approval for the fund to be released within 24 hours after a state meets all the conditions. http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/189658-how-katsina-governor-aminu-masari-lied-to-buhari-to-get-n11-bn-bailout.html 56 Likes 2 Shares |

[size=15pt]This is another hopeless liar from the pit of hell. In any case, Niger Deltans own the oil and they did not have to pollute Fulani land to extract oil. On the other hand, Fulanis have gone to Niger Delta to pollute the land and shared out most of the oil wells and oil wealth for themselves. Most of Nigeria's federal allocation have gone to the far northern states, which would not let anyone benefit from anything they have. Yet, they are lamenting over the paltry 13% derivation to Niger delta states in oil that belongs to Niger Delta? What has Kano,Katsina,Kaduna, Bornu, Sokoto to mention a few done with the lion share of the oil money they get as federation allocation? Most of it was used to sponsor Boko Haram to make Nigeria ungovernable for a southerner as they promised.[/size] 47 Likes 4 Shares |

Nobody outside the Niger delta has the right to question what the Niger delta people do with their money! Especially when all the money is question is from the niger deltas God given resources. There is an ongoing bid to put an end to the 13% derivation to the oil producing states, If buhari wants war let him just try it! Masari face your state that has both idle billionaires and folks to drink cow urine due to poverty! Shameless he goat! 13 Likes 2 Shares |

This is my problem with these bourgeoisie Northerners, we have been asking them for decades what they have done in pragmatic terms to better the lots of the average Abokii or Almajiri since they held sway in power , they have not been able to come out with any credible reply. Now they are twisting the questionaire tables. In any case, GEJ in my books was taking a more nationalistic stance and trying to please and avoid some aggrieved nerves on issues hence his not following through on Niger-delta projects and to me that should be his greatest regret being President. 12 Likes 1 Share |

This governor who is incidentally the governor of Katsina should tell us what Buhari or Y'ar Dua did for them.
