"Stop this witch-hunt!" Fayose warns General Snail

Some of those who sponsored the President’s election have not done any other jobs apart from holding public offices. Yet, they provided private jets and funds with which the President campaigned across the length and breadth of Nigeria. He should let Nigerians know where they got money to buy private jets and the several billions of naira spent on his election.

President Buhari and his men should however know that Nigeria of today is different from that of 1983 and the system under which they are operating now is also different."
Nigerians are watching and unlike 1983, nothing can prevent them from asking questions, which they are already asking.

"You cannot pay cash into domiciliary accounts any more," CBN tells Nigerians
"The Central Bank of Nigeria has considered the recent statements by Deposit Money Banks concerning the large volume of foreign currencies in their vaults and the decision to stop accepting foreign currency cash deposits into customers domiciliary accounts as a welcome development.

Therefore, in its continued efforts to stop illicit financial flows in the Nigerian banking system which aligns with the anti-money Laundering stance of the Federal Government, the CBN hereby prohibits from the date of this circular the acceptance of foreign currency cash deposits by DMBs."

"Police get tailors", DIG reveals

Sometimes, we have always made the mistake in this country when we were parading figures of the total strength of the Police Force . We intend to ignore the fact that we have other supportive services, for instance, we have the policemen, who are specialists in various departments of the force like the tailors, traffic wardens, the civilian staff, working in our account departments and the medical personnel, among others .

And when we talked about the total number of police, we lumped all these together. But the IGP has decided that we should know exactly what percentage of the total number of personnel that we have been talking about is actually in the physical policing work. And that I think it will help us in moving forward."

"Verily, verily, we say unto you, except ye emulate the Village Letter Writer of Ota and write to beg us, ye shall not be re-admitted into our political Kingdom," PDP tells whistle-blowers"

We have been directed to write letters of apology and copy chairman Board of Trustee (BoT), National Executive Committee (NEC), chairman PDP governors’ Forum before they could listen to us.

The NWC is sad that we have caused the party a lot of embarrassment; they complained that we ought to have channel our grievances through the Director of Administration, who in turn will pass it to the National Secretary to NWC, without a recourse to the public."
- PDP workers in The Independent.
