Yesterday, it was a show of shame when two corpers currently in orientation camp were caught in the act in Plateau State NYSC camp. The corpers, of the recent Batch A Stream 1 orientation Camp in Mangu Plateau State were caught having $ex inside a gutter in the wee hours of yesterday. The two erring corpers, were caught in the act after lights out by parading soldiers. The male corpers blamed the devil while the Female corper who happens to be married blamed the weather conditions in Plateau State and stated that she can’t stay too long away from $ex. The NYSC by-laws clearly doesn’t allow this and the two corpers have been decamped in accordance with the rule. They would be eligible for the youth scheme with the next batch.

Controversial Senator, Dino Melaye has described the current administration as that of criminocracy which he defined as a government of the criminals, by the criminals and for the criminals.

Vanguard reports that the Kogi senator made this comment at the 2017 Nigeria Democracy Day Lecture organized by the Save Democracy Group Africa (SDG-Africa) in Abuja. Melaye said the appointment of inexperienced people into government was largely responsible for the bad records in the first two years of Buhari’s administration.

He said:

“DEMOCRACY IS DEFINED AS A GOVERNMENT OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE AND FOR THE PEOPLE BUT WHAT WE HAD IN THE TIME OF JONATHAN WAS GREEDOCRACY, WHICH IS THE GOVERNMENT OF THE GREEDY, BY THE GREEDY AND FOR THE GREEDY. TODAY, WE HAVE CRIMINOCRACY-A GOVERNMENT OF THE CRIMINALS, BY THE CRIMINALS AND FOR THE CRIMINALS. WRONG APPOINTMENT LED TO THE EMERGENCE OF THE FORMER (SUSPENDED) SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNMENT OF THE FEDERATION, SGF WHO BECAME A GRASSCUTTER.

“WHEN YOU APPOINT A MAN WHO HAS NO EXPERIENCE IN CIVIL ADMINISTRATION AS SGF, HE IS BOUND TO MISBEHAVE.TO SUSTAIN THE NATION’S DEMOCRACY, MELAYE URGED NIGERIANS TO NOTE THAT A LEGITIMATE CLASH OF INTEREST EXISTS BETWEEN THE LEGISLATURE AND THE EXECUTIVE ARM AND AS SUCH, THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY SHOULD BE ALLOWED THE LIBERTY TO CARRY ON WITH ITS STATUTORY DUTY WITHOUT HINDRANCE.

“THERE IS NO WHERE AN AUDITOR AND THE MAN WHO RUNS AN ORGANIZATION ARE FRIENDS. THERE’S SOMETHING WRONG WHEN THE TWO ARE SEEN TAKING TEA TOGETHER. WE MUST DISCUSS AND AGREE TO BE NIGERIANS. WE HAVE NOT DISCUSSED AND WE HAVE NOT AGREED.

“GENERATORS SHOULD ONLY BEEN USED AT EMERGENCY CENTRES LIKE HOSPITALS AND MORTUARIES SO THAT WHEN THERE IS NO LIGHT IN KARMO (A SUBURB OF ABUJA), THERE WILL BE NO LIGHT ALSO AT THE VILLA.”

The senator called for the removal of immunity clause from the constitution. He also urged the government to eradicate poverty in other to put a stop to agitation for secession.
