Buhari Orders Investigation Of Three Key Ministers

There is a strong indication that Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari has given the anti-corruption agencies the instruction to launch a detailed investigation into an allegation concerning some three ministers serving under him from petitions written by a civil society group and members of the public.
A source close to the Presidency revealed that the letter where the order was communicated to the agencies was written about a week ago and the agencies, EFCC and ICPC had already commenced the investigation.
The affected Ministers as claimed would be invited for interrogation later this week.
The investigation is said not to be a new practice as the President affirms his position to sanitise his government from corruption without minding whose ox is gored
The Federal Government had also submitted the list of food vendors engaged in the school feeding programme to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and the State Security Service for investigation.
This came after the Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster Management and Social Development, Hajiya Sadiya Umar-Farouk, said the government is spending N4,200 per household as a monthly COVID-19 intervention for 3,131,971 households, totaling N13,154,278,200.
The opposition party, PDP has described the School Feeding Programme as the use of innocent school children as cover to steal and funnel not less than N679 million daily to private purses.
In his words, the spokesperson of the PDP, Kola Ologbondiyan said “it is now clear that the APC-led administration’s school feeding programme has always been a scam, the claims to feed school children even when schools are closed are colossal racketeering taken too far.”
However, the Spokesperson of the ruling Party, All Progressives Congress, APC in his response, accused the opposition party of suffering from post-colossal defeat trauma handed to them by the APC.
“They always feel that the way they squandered Nigeria’s resources during the sixteen years they ruled Nigeria will still be the order of the day.
“They missed it big time. President Muhammadu Buhari has been in public service for almost 37 years without being accused of stealing one kobo from the public office, a record that makes him unique in this country and Africa in general,” he said.

Parrot Xtra Publisher Celebrates Hassan Fatungase At 60

Publisher of Parrot Xtra Magazine/PMParrot.com, Olayinka Agboola has sent out expressive greetings to his long-time friend and brother, Alhaji Hassan Taiwo Fatungase, former Bakers’ World, Ikeja, Lagos Director on the occasion of his 60th birthday anniversary.
In a statement personally signed by Agboola, former Nigeria Coordinator for Ovation International Magazine described Alhaji Hassan Fatungase as the most selfless Nigerian he has ever encountered.
Agboola continued, “Hassan is not only selfless, he is intelligent, forward looking, hard-working, vibrant, resourceful, compassionate and above all, very God-fearing.”
The Ibadan-based media entrepreneur then went ahead to submit that the astute technocrat is a man who appreciates human beings and the value of friendship.
“Those who attended the University of Lagos with him in those days will attest to it that ‘Fatuu’, as he used to be called then would sacrifice anything to keep a working-relationship.
“Even when he joined one of the five-star hotels in Abuja in the early 90s, it did not take long before he was promoted to become the very first African to occupy a managerial position before he joined the Bakers’ World family business in Lagos. His records are still there till today.
Feats At Bakers’ World
“While running Bakers’ World located on Allen Avenue in Ikeja, Lagos, journalists, broadcasters, creative young Nigerians and others were encouraged by him. The records are also there for people to verify. There is almost no big name in the entertainment/media industry in Nigeria today that has not directly and/or indirectly benefitted from Hassan’s large-heartedness. As a matter of fact, he used to settle quarrels when differences and ‘head-on-collisions’ were reported to him!”
Agboola also went ahead to describe how the celebrant of the day has been faring since he became the chairman of Abimbola Awoliyi Estate, Oko-Oba in Lagos where he presently lives.
“Hassan is team-player and a man who keeps improving in good-naturedness even as a semi-retired bureaucrat. Residents of Awoniyi Estate will tell his story better. Since he became the chairman some three years ago, living standards have since improved.
“Together with other executive members, the Estate has been winning awards as one of the best in the whole of Lagos State. Solar lights, good roads, fibre-optic-source of internet, faultless security architecture and enhanced sociability…and other achievements have been recorded by the Fatungase-led team.”
Agboola, who was also a pioneer staff at Thisday Newspaper concluded “Dear friends and colleagues, please join me to pray for this quintessential lover of fairness and equity. May Allah continue to be with him, grant him sound health, more prosperity, divine protection and long life. May his wonderful family comprised of ‘Iyalaje’ Doyinsola and the children- Tomisin, Ahmed, Ibrahim and Idris continue to enjoy divine grace too. Happy birthday to our Director at Parrot Xtra Media Network, many happy returns of this day, September 26.”
