''Profligacy has also been the order
of the day. If this government is not
building a 2.2 billion-naira banquet
hall, it is spending 4 billion naira
on the office building of the African
First Ladies Peace Mission. The
funds being wasted on these white
elephant projects would have been
better spent on creating jobs for
our youths, millions of whom are
roaming the streets daily in search
of what to do to make ends meet,''
the party said.
On the road contracts awarded by
the Jonathan Administration, it said
the joke is on Okupe who, in saner
climes, cannot be speaking for any
government that is worth its salt.
''There is nothing new about
awarding contracts for road
rehabilitation. What the public
expects from Okupe is how many of
theroads have been completed or
are nearing completion. The
contracts for most of the roads,
which Okupe listed in his
statement, have been awarded
severally by previous PDP regimes,
with nothing to show. Even Okupe
has collected huge funds for road
contracts that he later abandoned!
How then can such contracts be
celebrated, when all they do is put
money in the pockets of party
cronies?
How can such men like Okupe
speak for any serious government,
when he should have been dutifully
prosecuted? Little wonder the
citizens have no trust in the
Jonathan Administration?'' ACN

I agree with Okupe. They are all noise makers - Bakare, Tinubu, Liar M'hmed, El-Rufai, Buhari, Dino Melaye.

if you sent this say sometime before the 2011 elections it will make the collection of Nigerians aspiration at that time. But this is Feb 2013 - present reality; GEJ is not that man people voted for. He has exhausted the sincere support of the people. Corruption is the fad of this present adminstration - he is doing his best no doubt but that best is not fair.

The opposition parties have to be "noise-makers" in order to canvass for votes and present their programs/critiques to the public.
Mr. Okupe is not on point.

What opposition parties say of each other shouldn't make news,it is way politricks go. What matters is what the electorates make of them.

They are main to diss each other just for their own sinister manifesto of grand looting as in the case of Nigeria.

. Asking such question does not make you intelligent. Lagos is richer than all the cities in Africa. How dare you compare Lagos with AkwaIbom financially. Find out about internally generated revenue which is used to build and own Oando. y

Is it at the presidential platform they are merging together or even at the local and state levels?If the merger agreement is all encompassing that is to say that the PDP may never win any state talkless of presidential platform.What will happen?Excuse me for just one second...... am seeing something that looks like a vision.Okay am back.The military will be used to rig the election and the stage will be set for a breakaway.Its a war and anarchy looms.PDP have murdered sleep and now shall they sleep no more.This merger is divine.
Re: Okupe Calls Opposition Parties Noisemakers by Eziachi: 12:43am On Feb 06, 2013
It seems to me that people like Okupe, Abati and as it seems many Nigerians including the so called ipod generation is yet to grasp the true nature of democratic environment. Hence they spent their energy hitting their head on the stone every time the so called opposition groups lambast the activities of the government. Opposition is there to be noise makers, that is why they are called the opposition. If you don't like the opposition noise, go back to military dictatorship and silence them.
The determining factor of a democracy is not the nature of the government but the state of the opposition.

They are there to oppose in public every aspect of govt in power's action even when they agree to it in private. Political parties exist to contest for power and nothing else.
And the only way you get power is to make your opponent looks bad while you positioning yourself as the only alternative. If Miss Nigeria start singing praises on how beautiful Miss Togo looks in a beauty contest, what the hell is she doing in the competition?
Even if its for all to see that Miss Togo was the finest, Miss Nigerian's job is to paint or make her as the ugly duck.

That is how it works in politics too. Mit Romney was one of the greatest opponent of Obama's healthcare despite the fact that years ago he floated a similar idea in Massachusetts a governor. If he agrees with Obama, why on earth will he be contesting him?

Jonathan and his army of sidekicks should by now know that the job of the opposition is to oppose, to shout, to jump and all sort in order to convince the voters that he is not the solution and they are. Its a contest people! And stop getting emotional about it.

They are not your enemy but your opponent and stop treating them as so, just because they wanted to sit where you are now sitting. That is what all of you are in politics for, to wrestle power FROM EACH OTHER.
My take is this: Nigeria are running a system they think is a democracy but their mindset are still dep rooted in warped military dictatorship, subconsciously.

If your INEPT PDP have not been docile, why would a Governor stole and got away with it, and moreover an Opposition Governor for that matter?
who appoints EFCC chairman? who appoints ICPC chairman?
I bet it is Tinubu that does that, that is why He has not been prosecuted. Lol.
