Do you think am pro-GEJ? nahh, i just hate hypocrites like you. I condemn people when they deserve it and praise them when they earn it. Not like people like you who never sees anything good about GEJ, he cant be that bad cuz even a broken clock is right twice a day!
The truth is that there is nothing good one can see about a corrupt president. The is only trying redeem his battered image and rapidly declining popularity. Fear of 2015 is the begining of wisdom for Jona.

No the federal government in nigeria from inception is useless. It is the duty of the federal government to partner states and LGA in solving problems related to those areas.elsewhere the federal government ask states to identify problems in their areas which the state budget cannot reach.apart from security and ministries and a few roads,what exactly is the responsility of the federal government . Nothing. Most federal agencies are suppose to be revenue generating agencies and are such ,be self funding. E.g standards organisation of nigeria,NNPC,CUSTOMS,PORTS,AGRICULTURE, MINING,COPYRIGHT ETC.so what are they using all the money for.
in other words, the provision of potable water supply in a university campus is a VERY difficult, capital intensive project for state govts to embark on in state run universities ? This is very hilarious. Then what's the nEed establishing the school in the first place & punishing children whose parents sent them from far and wide to get a university education ? Meanwhile students of Nasarawa origin enjoy such facilities in other states where they attend universities. So once again, I blame the state govt, the vc & commisioner for education for not utilizing their brains where necessary. A session school fees from one dept alone could have gone a very long way to alleviate students suffering.

All I can say is, there has been a total and systematic failure of Governance in Nassarawa State, and to think this the only State of the CPC beggers belief.

PapaBrowne: To think that this is the only university managed by a (Buhari) CPC controlled state.

Where is El Rufai, Buhari and the rest of the CPC goons??

It is time to start asking what the only CPC controlled state has achieved in the last 2 years?

For CPC, Education is truly Haram!!
I have always argued that CPC is not capable of ruling this country. Nasarawa state is the only state controlled by CPC yet you hardly find an achievement to point at. Nasarawa state is one of the worst if not the worst state in Nigeria- no tarred roads, poor waste management, poor education system (over 80% of children are out of school), no water supply all you see are water vendors (Mai ruwa) even in the state capital, absence of town planning, I can go on and on. In fact, you need to visit Nasarawa to see things for yourself.
If CPC can not deliver a single dividend of democracy in 2yrs of rule in the only state they control, how can they manage a nation like Nigeria with about 170million people? CPC is indeed a failure!

You conveniently forgot that The PDP governor Abdullahi Adamu was the Nassarawa State Governor from 1999 to 2007 ( 8 years) and Aliyu Akwe Doma also PDP from 2007 until they threw him out in 2011. The CPC government may not be good at all but PDP must have at least 80 % of the blame for the rot in Nassarawa State.

That is no excuse. Take Imo state for instance, PDP was in power from 1999 until Rochas Okorocha of APGA took over in 2011 and within that short time of his (Okorocha) emergence, Imo state has changed and the governor is still striving to do more. Take a look at the education and infrastructure sectors in that state you will be impressed with the work so far.
It takes a vision minded leader to effect change in a system within a short time irrespective of the decay met on ground which Al-Makura and CPC lack. I repeat, CPC is a failure!

is that why the CPC led govt couldn't hit the ground running and show the good people of Nasarawa state what they had been missing so far ? Your excuse holds no drop of water as long as the governor had both federal allocations & state IGR's at his disposal. If you think I'm lying, ask Fashola, Oshiomhole & Mimiko what they achieved after 2 yrs in government. Your being in an opposition party should act as an opportunity to showcase the advantages of your party over others especially the ruling party whenever you have an opportunity to serve your people.

A university (State) can't tell me they can't afford a borehole when the tuition fee isn't free.

You do not need a governor to have a borehole in a state school where fees are being paid.

GEJ, what is your business with approving the building of borehole in a state university? is that your duty? it's not even the duty of the governor, IT'S THE DUTY OF THE VC.

GEJ, stop acting lawlessly!

And who are we to blame for this? the newly elected governor from CPC that came into the position in 2011 or the PDP governors that ruled the state since 1999-2011?

Learn to know how to blame those who deserved to be blamed.

Unless you're liar, you can't say the governor hasn't done anything in 2 years, maybe he doesn't know how to use the media to showcase his "normal job" to the public?

Borehole in a University should be the job of the school as long as there's been budget for it already. Nassarawa state University didn't start in 2011, so why was there no borehole in the school before CPC took over in 2011?

I know Nasarawa very well. I was there during the period of election in 2011, I know how the people yelled for change from Keffi to Laffia to Akwanga to Massaka to Karu Local Government Area, the people wanted change which I saw was coming because PDP government then failed. But 2yrs later going through these places and listening to the indigenes of some of these areas, I was dissappointed at CPC, a waste of oppotunity! I expected CPC (and the leader of CPC) to use Nasarawa as a base for change towards capturing the minds of Nigerians and gaining their support for Buhari's presidential race. If they are visionless they would have learnt from ACN how they used Lagos state as a base for development and change therby, capturing the South West and Edo state in the process. That is leadership shown by ACN leaders who have vision!
I am not surprised at Buhari and his foot soldiers for not making use of this opportunity unlike Oshiomhole, Mimiko and Okorocha, after all, when Buhari was the Head of State he wasn't the one pioneering the chnage, we all know it was Idiagbon his vice who had the vision and pursued it. Buhari has no vision for this country, may be we should look for another Idiagbon to vice him in his race for president lol...but why clamour for Buhari when his vice can perform?

I am not here to hold brief for Al Makura, i am on this thread to talk about who's suppose to fix the university's borehole and who's not suppose to fix it. it's the job of the school authority to fix the borehole. whether Al-Makura is performing up to what the citizen of the states or not is not the issue here. if the thread is about Al Makura or CPC, then we can talk about it. like i wrote before, i do not live there and do not know what was on ground before he took over and what is presently on ground after taking over.

So Al-Makura = Buhari? lol, you're funny. i don't have time for cheap blackmail here. if you want to attack Buhari, come directly and stop hiding behind another person.

So i ask again: let me know what you want to address. the lack of water in Nasarawa state Uni or Buhari having a vision or not.
Re: NSUK: Jonathan Approves Construction Of Boreholes by Fellonigerians: 2:53pm On Mar 06, 2013
Is this not a state university what is the governor doing it is even a CPC state... Them all na the same...


cogitoErgo: Following a protest which led to the killing of students of Nasarawa state University last Monday, President Goodluck Jonathan has approved the construction of boreholes in the state owned institution.

While the students were protesting against the persistent shortage of water in the school, a detachment of soldiers stormed the school hours into the demonstration and in a bid to disperse the protesters fired live bullets that killed least two of them. The students however claim four were killed and not two as claimed by the state government and other security agaents.

However, in a response to the uproar the incident had sparked, President Goodluck Jonathan on Monday approved N20 million to the management of the university for them to commence work on the construction of bore holes in the school.

Jude Imagwe, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Youth and Student Matters, presented the letter of approval for the boreholes to the Vice Chancellor of the University, Shamsudeen Amali, when he led other students union bodies to the school.

He quoted Mr. Jonathan as saying that the gesture was aimed at enhancing availability of water as well as to reduce the plight of students, which led to the last week students’ unrest.

“I am disturbed and worried about what happened in which some students lost their lives as a result of the protest,” the presidential aide quoted the president as saying.

“The sum of N20 million was approved to the institution to enable it sink more bore holes in order to reduce the problem of inadequate water supply in the institution.

“He who provides water provides life. Life will be unbearable to the students if there is scarcity of water in the campus. They (students) will not even concentrate on their academic activities at the same time,” he added.

The president described the incident that led to the killing of the university students as unfortunate and uncalled-for.

He urged the student union bodies to always employ dialogue and peaceful means in fighting for their rights.

Responding, the vice chancellor thanked the president for the gesture, saying it would go a long way in addressing the water scarcity in the school.

Amali promised to make judicious use of the money for the purpose it was meant.

He denied inviting military personnel to quell the students’ protest that led to the killing of two students of the institution.

The President of the Students Union Government of the University, Rabiu Tijani, thanked President Jonathan for the gesture, saying the steps taken by the state legislature to bring the perpetrators of the act to book was laudable.

koastar:
Pls go back and read my posts very well. I explained explicitly that I was there live and direct in Nasarawa state before the election that brought in Al-Makura to access things for myself and also hear from people in the towns I mentioned in order to balance my report so that it wouldn't look as if I'm looking at the state of Nasarawa from only my own point of view. Since I live close in Abuja I contantly access the state and 2yrs after CPC won power I decided to access it again not only from my own perspective but also from the residents' just like the way I did initially but there was nothing to write home about.
By the way, I asked you to provide an evidence of good governance by CPC in Nasarawa but you couldn't come forth with one. If Oshiomhole, Okorocha and co could perform within two years of their emergence while can't Al-Makura? Are they not all governors? Governance is about ideology and vision which is absent in CPC. FYI, to me Nasarawa(being the only CPC state)=AL-Makura=CPC=Buhari, so if one fails Buhari has failed!

Are you suggesting that Jonathan has a vision? You must be just arriving from Mars.

This is a clear case of sabotage, how come the tap water begins to run that same monday night the students were killed. Who ever is in-charge of keffi water board should be sack, such people are the troublers of this nation. I believe it is a ploy to discredit the cpc government in 2015. Politicians can be so heartless.
