Lol, this country! God knows if I become president, at least 5000 people will see jail and many people will die by hanging for their past crimes. We will carry out thorough investigation from 1960 till date, set up a special court for corruption and get rid of all the old politicians and cabals by force. Then we need to sensitive Nigerians, they need to know that only us can build our country and no one will build it for us. Train some new set of intelligent Police guys, disarm the present police and use them for something else just to keep them employed.

Naira rain. Election don reach

Iamgrey5:
This makes no sense at all..

How will they be able to make the payments to the people who actually worked it ?

How are we sure these payments won't be swallowed by politicians?

In addition, the national carrier had been redundant and unproductive for years before it was actually liquidated, which was the main disagreement the government had with them then.

The Minister of State for Aviation, Hadi Sirika, said on Wednesday the Federal Government has approved the payment of N45billion severance package to former staff of the defunct Nigeria Airways.

The national carrier was liquidated by ex- President Olusegun Obasanjo’s administration in 2005, and the workers had been embarking on protests nationwide over their unpaid entitlements.

Sirika told State House correspondents at the end of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting that money has been approved for the settlement of the entitlements.

“Governments, in the past, decided just to liquidate Nigeria Airways without tending to the issue of the entitlements of the workers and they have been struggling to get that paid. We came in and took it very seriously.

“I’m happy to announce that Mr. President has approved N45 billion which has been confirmed to be the entitlements of these workers and Ministry of Finance has been instructed to pay the money. The ministry wrote to me last week that they have received the instruction to pay these workers, and therefore, they are setting up the modalities to pay.

“You should know it won’t be paid through my ministry before somebody will say I take some of it. It will be paid by finance through a process, and that process will commence very soon,’’ he said.

The minister disclosed that the Council approved the procurement of operational vehicles for Nigeria Port Authority (NPA) and the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA).

Same thing we have been hearing since last year, the money has been approved by federal government, ministry of finance pay them the money, ministry of finance say national assembly has to sign it before they can pay the pensioners. My late dad came to Lagos early last year after the money was approved, hoping to at least receive his entitlement, pass it to his children, since he was already sick, he didn't receive it before he passed on. This money has been approved since late 2016, somebody somewhere is sitting on the money. God help Nigeria.

Lol, N45bn na change. Money stolen under this government is more than what PDP stole in 16 years. Should Buhari lose next year, you will hear figures that can drive a person crazy.

Train some new set of intelligent Police guys, disarm the present police and use them for something else just to keep them employed. Focus on production and invest real big on technology. Offer ministerial jobs to skilled professionals only and monitor them big time to end corruption. Bring Nigerian professionals from all over the world to come help fix this gaddamn country.

It's not that hard to lead a country, but we have unwilling and dumb leaders.
