shamelessly corrupt govt.......nepotism is colossally blatant.....National Assembly is moribund.

Up north

Everything North, Oya Yoruba come and defend your master oh.

..

Sorry o, but what do they really do at that agency?

Job for the boys... Few days ago, it was reported here that there are recent employees in that very space agency that are graduates of agric science and other non related courses like religious studies... I wouldn't be surprised if there are graduates of Koranic education at managerial positions in the Nigerian space agency too! Obviously, the confused one is not interested in your dramatic space program. Buhari is just interested in creating openings in every agency to employ his fulani brethren. It's not about achieving results, it's just about creating official postings for ethnic henchmen and party hirelings..

Space Agency Recruiting Graduates Of Religious Studies – Boroffice

…..employees cough out N2m to get job
At a time countries all over the world are employing the best hands in manning all aspects of technology to prepare for challenges of new millennium,Nigeria space agency has chosen to toe religious line by employing graduates is religious studies to man its space agency.
Deputy Senate Majority Leader and Chairman Senate Committee on Science and Technology, Ajayi Boroffice, confirmed that the countrys space agency that should be employing scientists and engineers are employing graduates of religious studies and other unrelated courses.

The senator said the agency needs to be sanitised, adding that presently, such actions amount to misemployment, considering that the support staff of the agency constitutes about 80 per cent of the workforce.


He stated that for efficiency, the agency needs scientists to constitute about 70 per cent of the workforce instead of what is in existence at present.

Boroffice added that the Independent Corrupt Practices and other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) is presently scrutinising the employment documents of the agency.

He said this on Friday in Abuja at the annual national space dialogue/media conference on space science and technology.

The Deputy Senate Majority Leader also added that he learnt that people are made to pay between N2 million to N2.5 million for employment, describing it as sad.



He said: “How can you be taking people with religious studies in space centre? It is misemployment when the support staff that constitute about 80 per cent are the workforce. It is wrong.

“We need experience. We need scientists to constitute about 70% per cent of the workforce but the reverse is the case.

“I learnt that the ICPC is around, scrutinising employment documents, I heard employment is earned with N2 million, N2.5 million. It is sad.

We have to reexamine ourselves. We have to sanitise the space agency so that we can achieve the purpose of nation itself.”

In response, the Minister of Science and Technology, Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu, said the government was determined to correct the mistakes made.

They want to be praying for the satellite lol

This is a country that has appointed a military man as the vice-chancelor of a university before! I mean, these guys are shameless! They don't care, have no positive ambitions and are not emotionally attached to the country! Some of you are busy trying to build a virile country, while some others are desperately trying to be inventive in looting the same country down! Folks whose loyalty are all over the place.. Some hold allegiance to FutaTorro other to Zinder via Marada!
