CORRUPTED CHANGE: Saraki Explodes In Anger, Exposes Deep-Seated Corruption And Massive Looting In Buhari’s Office…N10 Trillion Hijacked!!!

Senate President, Bukola Saraki, has exposed the massive corruption currently going in the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, under President Muhammadu Buhari’s watch.
Post-Nigeria recalls that Buhari is currently the substantive Minister of Petroleum Resources.
Saraki was represented by the Senate Leader, Ahmed Lawan, at a public hearing on the re-introduction of subsidy, being conducted by the Senate Committee on Petroleum Resources (Downstream).
The Senate President regretted that: “Government has not done what we need to do to nip this problem in the bud.”
He disclosed that payments amounting to some N10 trillion, were hijacked to favour a few individuals.
“Findings have brought to light the fact that our downstream oil and gas industry needs critical reforms”, he said.
Saraki further stated that it had been exposed that: “In spite of the stoppage of the fuel subsidy regime, and non-appropriation of funds for the scheme, due to the fraud and maladministration going on in the scheme, fuel subsidy payments continue to be made illegally from our commonwealth to a few quietly, in order to dodge scrutiny and avoid exposure.”
The Senate President stated: “But this 8th Senate is here to expose all corruption in the system, irrespective of how highly placed those involved are. This unconstitutional and illegal practice must be addressed, and we are not going to rest until it is fully addressed.”
Saraki charged the Committee to “get to the bottom of this issue, and proffer long-lasting solutions to this racketeering in the fuel market that leaves the Nigerian people poorer every year.”

OBOREVWORI: How Not To Glorify A 'One Chance' Governor - By Zik Gbemre

It is appalling how, in desperation to sustain its thieving hegemony over the Delta State Government since 1999, the Delta PDP had the audacity to impose the weakest, most uninformed contender, a local champion, as Governor over a state replete with accomplished men and women of immense capacity. Given this unenviable privilege, one would have expected the fortunate placeholder governor, Sheriff Oborevwori—whose only election campaign manifesto was pledging to improve on the failed leadership of Ifeanyi Okowa, his predecessor—to engage creative minds and individuals of proven integrity to assist him in making a difference. Rather than doing the needful, Oborevwori has worsened matters by electing to engage the same spent leaders, deadwood, and gluttons that have gained prominence in running the state down over successive administrations. The result has been a government of mediocre officeholders competing to run the state for their pockets at the detriment of the populace, under a gove...

On Friday, May 31st, during the funeral service for the Late Asagba of Asaba, the essence of true leadership was vividly displayed. The service featured the introduction of various dignitaries, including Senator George Akume, Secretary to the Government of the Federation who represented President Bola Tinubu, Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, Governor Godwin Obaseki, and Former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa.
