Speaker Dogara and Abdulmumin at a recent event
More scandalous revelations from NASS is leaving Nigerians dumbfounded.  The bottom line is that “Heads” are expected to roll shortly.  Though SERAP, SANs have asked Speaker Dogara to resign, Jubrin Abdulmumin the fellow who blew the whistle has added salt to pepper insisting that “we all are corrupt”.

As more revelations spill out, it was discovered that most of the “padded” figures given are for 13 projects “allocated” to the “House” leader’s office meant for Ogun State, costing over N2.8 billion; from the SGF’s office – N200m; Constituency projects for Kontagora and Wushishi Federal Constituencies put at N100 million; others in Ogun State estimated at  N650 million.  The breakdown show that most of the “projects” are for supply of Toyota, Kia vehicles, chest freezers, mobile toilets!

Since the inception of democracy and the execution of Constituency projects, few records exist to show they were ever executed.  This is a sad reminder of the type of leaders at the helm of  our dear nation.

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...

RAPE SAGA: FATOYINBO IN THE CLEAR?

Two months after Busola Dakolo’s rape claim against Mr. Biodun Fatoyinbo, Senior Pastor of the Commonwealth of Zion Church (COZA) cracks have begun to appear.   When the accusation first broke out in June, the backlash against the stylish COZA lead Pastor was so intense that it snowballed into frenzied demonstration by aggrieved Church members who subsequently barricaded the entrance to both Lagos and Abuja Church premises.   It did not take long for him to succumb to one of their demands to step down from the pulpit. But then reporters attached to Newspaperman went to town and began a discreet investigation into the affair.   First, the team discovered a “loophole” in Busola’s claim of being raped “ repeatedly ”, noting that the same person cannot be “raped” repeatedly, unless there must have been some sort of 'consent", “collaboration” or “cooperation” in place; something like a paddy paddy affair. Secondly, Fatoyinbo must have been extremely “crazy”, “r...
