The procurement of laptops for the Jubilee government's defining laptop project is a foregone conclusion if talk in the corridors of power is anything to go by.

Some top managers of one of the public universities have been put on the spot after it emerged that they misled the institution’s Senate in 2011 to award 28 Nigerian students a Masters of Philosophy in Entrepreneurship degrees for a course that was never offered by the university. Our moles tell us the managers travelled to Nigeria, returned with the list of the students and hurriedly developed the programme, pushed for its approval and forwarded the list of 'graduates' for endorsement by the Senate and University Council. Surprisingly, nobody since then has been admitted to study the same course or even graduated from the same even though the university continues to boast of having churned out Nigerian students for the programme.

Our moles have been trying to shed light on the reasons behind the interest that a former vocal MP has in the belated procurement of IEBC lanterns. They say that the politician may have an association with the director of the firm that was awarded the tender to provide the lanterns over and above the objections of a senior IEBC official. The man was recently spotted camping outside the IEBC offices to allegedly follow up on the payment due to the firm.

A top trade unionist could not let an opportunity to add on points to his supermarket loyalty card. The unionist was queuing behind a shopper who had a fully loaded trolly of goods. When asked by the cashier whether he had a loyalty card, the shopper said he did not have one. The unionist quickly offered his card to the shopper who did not object to the offer of the card.
