CASH SQUEEZE  GRIPS MDA’S
REFUSES TO HEED BUHARI’S ORDERS ON  ARREARS


A new wave of “blistering” hardship is sweeping through Ministries, Departments and Agencies.  From reliable sources, this new development is coming on the heels of the arrival of “Buharimonics” who has since ordered the immediate implementation of the TSA policy—an acronym for single treasury account, making it impossible for fraud to be perpetrated by hardened Nigerians..

As Abuja Morning Star gathered, those apostles of “Change” who sided with “sai baba”, never envisaged this dramatic turn for the worst and nothing is being done anywhere  in any Federal Ministry.

“It is like the noose is being tightened daily with more and more stringent measures”, said Ibrahim Alkali, a staff of one of the Ministries at the Federal Secretariat.

Another fellow, Muhammad Bali who works with the Immunization Department of Federal Health Ministry said, “We have never seen anything like this; the nation is at a standstill; and nothing is being done about it; Alhaji Mohammad wondered what the game is all about since there is no workshop, no training of any sort; no seminar.  He told Abuja Morning Star that it was now very difficult to secure an approval of common N5, 000 and is worried now that the country may actually be stuck.

When Abuja Morning Star went round, most Ministries, Departments and Agencies were bedeviled by obsolete office equipments; lack of photocopiers, computers, not to mention broken down official vehicles that now adorn their premises.
A reprieve seem to come the way of Civil Servants when Government recently ordered the payment of all outstanding arrears, promotion, 28 days allowances, etc.

But the stiff silence coming from all Ministries, Departments and Agencies suggest that, that order may have met a brick wall – dead on arrival.

So far nothing is being said about it again and the harsh and inclement weather is running rings round the pockets of Civil Servants.

BISHOP DAVID ANGEL, A.K.A. BAZOOKA, BRINGS RELIEF TO TROUBLED FAMILIES IN KETTI

. The Bishop is young, vibrant and full of vitality; once he mounts the Altar, let’s say 10.oclock in the morning, he hardly gets down till hours later; he conducts Service with consummate passion, enthusiasm and rapt attention to minute details; he quotes the scriptures eloquently, sings to the admiration of the worshippers and preaches with fiery candor that reminds you of the inimitable father of prosperity.. Bishop David Oyedepo! What a coincidence, the younger and the old bear the same name! What follows next follows next is prophesy, prophesy upon prophesy! He says “if there is a man to pray there is a God to answer”! Not done, the young powerful man of God is angry: “This error must be corrected”, he charges when service gets hotter. The “error” he is talking about are legion: protracted barrenness, stagnation, limitation, unexplained difficulties, poverty and a life of non achievement! Many of the worshipers are those who are tired having visited several churches and Pastors...

2015 GENERAL ELECTIONS SHOCKING REVELATIONS ABOUT FUNDS DISBURSEMENT

How the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan frittered away the nation’s scarce resources is beginning to spill out – despite the shrill insistence by ex-Finance Minister, Okonjo Iweala that the records sheet were clean! Information pieced together by our investigators show that several paramilitary Agencies under the Federal Ministry of Interior shared a record 10 billion each for the purpose of influencing the March 28 General Elections in favour of the defeated incumbent.   However, things did not go down well with the ranks and file during the sharing. Outgoing Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Boss (name withheld) was said to have misappropriated the huge booty by allegedly pocketing 5 billion for himself, while declaring the other half (5 billion) as the sum total.   The bone of contention was that while the rank and file received 40,000 each some key associates close to the big guns went home with a hefty slice.   Causing the rumble.
