Gbajabiamila the chairman wailing wailers committee

Contrary to rebuttals from the camp of Speaker Yakubu
Dogara that he did not act unilaterally in appointing
chairmen of the standing committees, the Majority Leader in
the House of Representatives, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila has
confirmed that he was not consulted in the selection of
chairmen announced last Thursday.
The Speaker’s camp had said all principal officers of the
House were carried along in the selection, to ensure that all
interests are taken care of.
A source close to the Speaker had told THISDAY that the
meeting which held before plenary Thursday morning, was
for the selection among the principal officers.
Gbajabiamila in a message however, explained that he saw
the final list at the meeting.
“The list speaks for itself. I saw it for the first time at 10a.m.,
a couple of hours before the announcement was made. This
falls short of the consultation with Principal Officers
required and mandated by our House rules,” he said.
Last week, THISDAY had reported that the House Leader was
not being carried along in the exercise as the Speaker was
working only with his inner caucus on the list.
Statutorily, the Speaker has the final say on the selection of
chairmen and deputies of standing committee, it was
however expected to be done in consultation with principal
officers to ensure that all interests are accommodated.
This exercise was particularly being watched with keen
interest, as it was expected to finally douse the tension that
lingered between the Consolidation group and the Loyalists
group following the crises that rocked the lower chambers
and divided the over appointment of principal
officers.
The appointment of the chairmen however seems to have
revived the division in the House as several of the
loyalist group feel short-changed despite assurances that the
exercise would be fair to all.
Just one out of the eight committees clinched by
of the group is regarded as Grade A, with Hon. James Faleke
(Lagos APC) as chairman of Customs and Excise Committee.
A member of the group however noted that since Faleke is
expected to leave the House if he wins the Deputy
Governorship of Kogi State in the polls, it could
therefore mean none of the loyalist group secured the
chairmanship of a Grade A committee.
“The speaker gave us the low graded committees like civil
societies, anti-corruption, aids and loans, financial crimes,
insurance, treaties, protocols and agreements. Are those
serious committees? Only Sani Zorro got something fair, the
newly formed committee on IDPs, and maybe because he
has been the face of the House,” the lawmaker said.
A lawmaker close to the Speaker had told THISDAY that last
Thursday meeting of principal officers which delayed
plenary until past noon, was for all the officers to select the
chairmen together.
The meeting had the majority leader, Gbajabiamila, in
attendance.
THISDAY however gathered that at the meeting, the Speaker
presented the already concluded list to the principal officers.
A source however said it was cheap blackmail to say the
principal officers, including Gbajabiamila, were privy to the
list
“The meeting called was not for the principal officers to
determine who gets what, no matter how small, but to
present the principal officers most especially to
Gbajabiamila, an already prepared committee list. They
were merely asked to raise objection to any name they do
not want on the list, but it is not possible for the leader or
anyone to say remove this person, and replace with another
person.”
“The essence of the so-called principal officers meeting last
Thursday before the announcement in the evening was just
to use their attendance particularly that of the House leader
to lend credence to “an already prepared list by the Speaker
and his inner caucus. Even Gbajabiamila’s people who were
given committees, he was not consulted, if he was, he would
have objected,” the source said.

missdebs:
it can only be sahara...saying the truth since 99

for sure sister me

Just Imagine

Look

Others

The Nigeria Customs is the 2nd revenue generating agency after NNPC, the govt through CEMA (Customs & Excise Management Act) empowers Nigeria Customs to take 7% of the total revenue generated that's a lot of money, almost a budget of a state for example in 2014 Customs generated a total of N977.09Billion, 7% of this amount is almost N70 billion naira, and the officers are very few, less than 25,000 officers.. But the leaders end up mismanaging the the money, and the workforce officers end up receiving pea-nuts @ the end of the month as salaries, no allowances of any kind, Customs officers earned the lowest salaries among all the Paramilitary, military and police in Nigeria, not to even talk about revenue generating agencies no wonder an average customs officer is currupt owing to the fact that no one notices all their efforts... Even though the new CG Col Hamid Ali promise to look in to most of the loopholes.


Lalasticlala:-

Very bad

Many commentators, analysts and specialists have aired their views since the appointment of Col. Hameed Ali (Rtd.) as the Comptroller-General of Customs. Since his maiden address on Friday, 11th September 2015 at Customs Headquarters and recent visit to various Customs Commands and Formations in Lagos, the message is very clear to all sundry that the system will not be the same in all ramifications.

Owing to his pedigree and tract records of integrity, it's generally assumed that Customs will be turn around and the issue of corruption be stamp out once and for all. BUT? Is that possible with the present situation and method of operation? Perhaps NO, and that's where the challenge is and the new CGC may found very difficult to overcome. Of course, he has the where withal to fight corruption. No doubt about that. But, it goes beyond body language and it has to be backed up by concrete, comprehensive and detailed action plan.

The Customs have undergone total transformation under previous istration which earned it accolades from World Customs Organization and leading role in West and Central African Sub-Region. NCS was refereed to as reference model in modern Customs istration. What remain now is how to once and for all reposition it to maintain the tempo and stem out corruption. But how can that be possible?

Customs have fallen under two categories of federal government establishment. As a para-military organ as well as revenue generating agency. They are exposed to regimented and modern day challenges of combating criminals operating along international boarders to undermine the security and economy of the nation. They manned the nation boarders 24/7 and participates actively in the t Task Force (JTF) to fight against insecurity facing the country.

On the other hand, they are ranked second highest revenue generators to federal government after oil and gas sector. They performed similar statutory roles like FIRS, NNPC, CBN, NIMASA, NPA, SEC, NDIC, etc. In fact, they collect VAT on behalf of FIRS and Port Levy on behalf of NPA/FAAN as the case may be and remit to the federation .

Corruption doesn't just happen. It strive in an atmosphere where opportunity presents itself. In my own analysis, two factors are responsible for Customs officials being corrupt. Viz; the system and the environment.

The system is made in such a way their efforts are not in anyway recognized and compensated like other similar agencies in of welfare, renumerations, allowances and entitlements. It's painful to point out that new organisations like Civil Defense and FRSC earns more than Customs that is 124years old, (esterblished by an act of parliament in 1891) let alone Army and the Police. A friend of mine who was recruited into Customs since 2009 with B.Sc got promotion only once and currently his salary is N121,834/month only. He receives nothing again till next month and that's the practice throughout the year.

On the contrary, my other friend that ed Navy with B.Sc almost the same time is promoted twice and his monthly salary is N400 thousand plus. This is not magic and is verifiable fact. Funny enough, Comptroller of Customs is earning little over N350 thousand monthly. How do you expect maximum productivity and efficiency from such kind of situation? How can Customs Area Comptroller with his officers in a Command perform effectively under demoralized situation? Is it easy to generate billions of Naira from Seme, Apapa, TinCan, MMIA, Onne, etc, as revenue target? How are they managing their various Commands in of logistics, stationeries, vehicle maintenance, and other sundry issues that are essential in maintaining offices?

Officials of the Nigerian Customs Service are the worst paid in all uniform organisations and Navy is the most highly paid followed by the Nigerian Airforce and the Army. Same officer of the service wich his net earnings is not up to a fresh starter in the FIRS that earns more than what a Deputy Supritendent of Customs is earning as monthly salary, which is 147,000 Naira and level 09 officer of the FIRS receive more than 250,000 thousand more than what the Chief Supritedent of Customs (CSC) is earning.

The worst case is the agony and pain of which the junior officers are subjected to through. How can you transfer a junior officer that earns barely N45 thousand monthly from Sokoto to Lagos without any provision for accommodation and transfer allowances and expect him not to be corrupt? Where do you expect him to get accommodation, feed himself and take care of his family back home? One act of heroism is that most of them engage in fierce gun battle with hardened smugglers and lost their lives on the process. Does that means they did not deserve better renumeration than someone sitting comfortably under air conditioned and fully furnished office in NNPC or FIRS? Let's get the fact as it is please.

Comparing Customs officials with their counterparts in revenue generating agencies like FIRS, NNPC, etc will make you wonder wether their efforts and sacrifices are being acknowledged at all. Apart from monthly salary, the packages and allowances they enjoy is highly impressive and will ensure maximum output. At the beginning and end of every year and also quarterly, they received huge amount of money which will be reasonable enough to pay their children's school fees and rent.

Second cause of corruption in Customs is the environment in which they operate. Here, I mean the importers, clearing agents, and other security and government agencies like SSS, Police, Army, NDLEA, SON, NAFDAC, etc,. They all operate tly under the same roof at boarder stations, Airports and Sea Ports. The importers fake almost all their import documents right from the factory abroad with a view to cut corners and pay less duty. This could be made possible with the aid and of vulnerable and demoralized Customs officials and other government officials mentioned above. The importer represented by Clearing Agents perfects the plan and settle them and pay chicken change as duty to the government. This is the situation and it's happening on daily basis and every minute.

I'm not in anyway ing corruption or corrupt practices of Customs. They are corrupt tly with other security and government agencies like SSS, Police, the Army, NDLEA, SON, NAFDAC, etc, operating tly at various points of entry. In fact, they are more corrupt that Customs officials. Worst is the Clearing Agents and the importers themselves who are majority government officials, business men, religious leaders, corporate bodies that present fake documents to avoid payment of right duties.

In conclusion and going by the perception of majority of Customs after CGC's first maiden address and recent tour in Lagos, it's evidently clear that the task is herculean and that it requires more wisdom to achieve the feat. Fighting corruption is not by magic but by concrete and holistic approach not mere warnings and signals.

The CGC's message would have been thus....."I came and observed your predicaments in of welfare and other benefits as against other security and revenue generating agencies. I will upgrade your welfare to the best global practice, and henceforth, dismiss and subsequently prosecute any officer found wanting of corruption."

As it is, Customs, importers and agents and other agencies will not welcome this idea despite the fact that it's good for the economy. The CGC's message wether we like or not is without any relevance or impact because the business remains as usual almost everywhere. But it will be more effective and inclusive if the suggested measure is put in place and also to devise means of educating the importers, agents, and other clearing agents of the effect of cutting corners as they tly connive with Customs to engage in trade malpractices that may warrant loss of revenue b government.

God bless Nigeria!!!

MissAssy:
There are some experiences you don't wanna keep to yourself. Mine is what i experienced when i lived with my aunt and her children who are all older than me in 2006.Am gonna make this story as short as possible.Am not much of a writer so please bear with me and share your experiences too.

It started when i went for a vacation at their house in aba. I was 11yrs then and that made it easy for them to brainwash me with fake love using bleach and iron sponge. Well one day like that, my aunt gave me nd my cousin some chores to do and left for market, after i finished mine my cousin tried to cajole me to do hers so i refused but when she tried to drag me inside to beat me or something, my eyes hit the key lock.i thought i ws going to go blind because blood started gushing out of my left eye as if that was not enough she asked me to lie on how i got the accident and that was during the period of my vacation,i thought that was an accident and that such thing wont happen again cos they asked me to live with them which i agreed meanwhile my mom disagreed cos she was maltreated by her aunt when she was little on the other hand my dad agreed cos that is his sister. As time went on,they showed me their true colour.i go to school only 3times in a week except when we have exams.i do all the hard work in the house and they're never satisfied, as an 11yr old girl i fetch water with 25liters of gallon i bet that's why all my siblings are taller than me ,i wake up around 5 every morning to wash the plates, fetch water meanwhile i fetch water every night and the most painful part is that she have sons that can fetch water and am always late for school and am always the last to pay school fees, everyone knows me in school then, most of the time i wont eat breakfast before going to school and i will stay hungry till 4 with nothing in my tummy.i cry myself to sleep every night and they don't care, i hardly smile or laugh when am with them.school is my escape route cos i have a best friend then who buys things like food for me then and help pay for my textbooks then cos am always the last to pay for everything.If i ask her to give me money for a textbook worth 150 she will say she doesn't have meanwhile she will bring money in bundles and count in my presence our school then is a mixed school so i gained alot from boys,at a time our sp stopped punishing me for coming late.Her daughter sends me out at night to buy things for her and if i refuse i will get a beating.whenever my mum or dad visits me, they start treating me well and calling me by my short name which us Muanya instead of Chimuanya they usually blurt out.whenever they cook a new soup i will b the one to eat the old one and by the time i finish it, the new one will b old.when i was in jss2, my lil sis who was around 6 then came for a holiday so one day it rained so hard,u know aba nau with bad road and everything After the rain my aunt asked me to go and buy pepper so i bought dry pepper which they usually use, when i came back she asked me to go and change it that she needs fresh pepper so i told her that we have fresh pepper and she asked me to bring it, when i brought it, it turns out that the pepper has decayed with maggot the next thing i knew she poured the on my face and i didn't even know what i did to deserve that.i thought my heart was going to break,i couldn't even cry but when i turned and saw my lil sis crying, i couldn't hold back my own tears with my heart aching after i washed off the pepper on my face she still asked me to go and change the pepper and it was already dark then.These are just half of the things they did to me and the only thing i regret till now is never running away cos i know they would have alot to answer to everyone if i did.

Lalasticlala please push this for me

tomakint:
This I know for sure. Dakuku Peterside can never become Rivers State Governor even if Amaechi is made the INEC Chairman. Words from Wike.......Demdem let's discuss......

they are only extending the tenure of wike as a govenor, coz after the election he'll still go back 2 power as govenor to start afresh again, so all the1nce he enjoyed from may 29 to date won't be counted, so is it the speaker that will now contest? Can he refuse the sack by appealing 2 appeal court?

seunfunmi33:
I have a girlfriend I have dated for 5 years. I'm the very sexually active type but I don't make love to her often because I want to keep her in good shape till when we will get married. So I do visit brothel to satisfy my sexual desire which she is unaware of because of the little distance between us.

I decided to stop patronizing prostitutes and have an extra tyre (gf). So I got one living in my street.

The new girlfriend does not disturb my relationship with my long time girlfriend. She loves sex more than food and am happy I met my type. I started having issues with my main girlfriend and broke up with her to stay with someone that lives in my street and ready to give me sex daily.

She always want it raw saying she is under medication. But she got pregnant 6 months into our relationship. My family forced me to accept the pregnancy and marry her because am the only child of my parent.

She gave birth to a bouncing baby boy last 2 months and I have never made attempt to make love to her. Though she is doing well in her business and doesn't disturb me financially but she keeps deleting her calls and chats which am not comfortable with. Though she has got good character but am afraid she will cheat on me because of her love for sex.

Buhari and Northern leaders conduct regular interviews on BBC Hausa Service and use it as platform to across their messages and therefore other tribes in Nigeria need similar platform, why is there no BBC Yoruba orIdoma service? During GEJ northerners made statements on BBC Hausa that were inimical to the general citizens; is BBC Hausa Service not a pirate Radio station like Radio Biafra.

This is democracy, you can detain him indefinitely, take him to court and grow his popularity like Gani Adams, Asari Dokubo and other regional activists.

unfortunately for you, you will be the looser. Am in no mood for the exhibition of tribalistic attitude but you should know that you are mad and needs to go to the shrink. There is no such thing as the Niger Delta people for your knowledge, it's quite unfortunate how the winners of wars usually distort facts. The area known today as PH was previously known as ugwu ocha with an igbo denotation. It was Lugard who renamed it to what it is today. Jaja of opobo land was an igbo man, the people of Delta state of today are predominantly igbos. More over we all fought for Biafra in the past with ojukwu as leader and general effiong as his vice.......... Think again....... Animal !

the wish of every blind man is to 1 day see of which he will never, thats the wish of inyamilis but they will never get that forever and ever and ever, Niger deltans don't even care about anything biafra and they rather stay witnh Nigeria than to follow biafra, and its only that Niger delta oil una they eye, we will kill any 1 that try any rubbish infact the biafran war was a childs play, we will do to inyamilis what the hutus did for the tutsi in rwanda we'll kill 80% of u animals beast of burdens... And let me assure u this reality, Niger Deltans, south west and the northn will be president or Vp in the next 1000years to come but for inyamili hahahaha the highest u will have in any govt is dep Sen president or Dep Speaker... Any body wey carry nyamili as VP where ever he's from the whole of the north west, north east, north central and even south west won't vote for him, chai igbo women sabi Bleep die, nna I no fit count the number wey I dey taste every day 2-4 igbo women till day break ...
