Billyonaire: Best Speech ever written by any Nigerian President. I nearly thought it was Obama's speech.

This speech has changed my perception and given me a reason to become more detribalized.

Regarding the National Dialogue; it is high time we disussed amongst other things;

1 FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE OF STATES
2. STATE POLICE
3. SOCIAL WELFARE SCHEME
4. BIOMETRY
5. STATE OF BIRTH/STATE OF ORIGIN PARADOX
6. ABROGATION OF QUOTA SYSTEM
7. NIGER DELTA IDENTITY AND BIAFRA COMPENSATION AGAINST THE 20 POUNDS INSULT AND IMPOVERISHMENT.



Valid points from a sound mind

When people talk of corruption, kidnapping, bombing, etc. i wonder if GEJ is the problem. In your office, what do you do? The only sure way to solve the myraid of problems in Nigeria is for all of us to have a rebirth of our mind. When this is done, you don't need any president to keep this country going perfectly. When we rid off ourself from get-rich-quick syndrome, we'll be there. God Bless our country.

Which president dey write his speech? If u become president today believe me, you no go write ur speech, they have people that do that..... You just tell the writer a summary of what you want to say, the writer as a professional arranges it, even governor no dey write their speech.
So I don't know what's all these 'the president didn't write it', if the speech good swallow your pride and say it because if it's bad u no go remember say no b presi written am


God bless The Federal Republic of Nigeria

KwoiZabo: l am afraid. The President is constituting a committee for National dialogue, and the president of the Senate also made mention of it on resumption in the face of these G5 or 8 governors palaver. This is serious O. Odikwa very risky and all the post I've read so far Nobody seems to be talking about it. Mr President, I love and respect you so much and i know these abokis have pushed us to the wall so much but be careful cos this is a recipe for division. embarassed
isnt that what we always wanted.
Now he's got the balls to push for it, you losing 'yours' undecided

Your grading is inconsistent. Kidnapping and bombing can't each be A1, while Job opportunity and security are marked F9 each.

There is no nation under the sun, where leadership can be marked, F9, while corruption and cash embezzlement are A1.
