“Our president went to the G7 and we are happy. And he went there with a bowl, ‘please do this for us, do this for us,'” said Mr. Falana, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria.Thank you Chief Falana. I was displeased when it was obvious that the so-called request that his excellency the President made at the G7 were all domestic . Nigeria is not a failed state that we will be running to foreign government to help fix us. The government of Muhammadu Buhari should be told that they have the mandate to fix Nigeria's problem. We gave them the mandate and not G7. We hope they are not contemplating IMF's SAP. 111 Likes 8 Shares |

Not the ideal situation but desperate situations need desperate measures.... Gone are the days of calling the G-7's bluff, so many countries have their sorry stories to tell, Nigeria isn't "man" enough yet.. If only "they" hadn't brought the country to the brink of total collapse maybe... 13 Likes 1 Share |

Masculity:My brother, no one is disputing the fact that we don't need external cooperation in tackling some issues. What we are saying is that is is laughable for us to be running to G7 with our wish-list (which are mostly domestic) for them to solve for us. No foreign government is ready to bear the burden of another country. The best they will do is to seek to exploit you through taking away your sovereinty by invading your land with their army (for insurgency) or using IMF to forever impoverish you (for economic challenge) 50 Likes 8 Shares |

During his campaign he was busy saying "I will do this" and "I will do that" but in reality he really meant "obama will do this" and "james cameron will do that"..... ...Smh This is what you get when you have a puppet for a president 48 Likes 4 Shares |

globalresource:I don't think you understand what Mr Fami is saying. No country is "Father Christmas". No country is ready to bear the burden of any country. The problem with African leaders is that they don't think. They expect some successful government to help them solve their own problems. Things doesn't work that way!

We don't have civil rights activists in Nigeria. Gani was the last breed of those worthy to bear that name. Falana in particular has been a huge let down. Choosing to speak when his pay masters and political allies are affected and keeping an undignified silence when they are culpable. I am very sure if the NASS elections had favoured his pay masters, he wouldn't be ranting. I have lost confidence in him and others that parade themselves as activists. 44 Likes 4 Shares |

okI have applied caution and restrain in joining the team currently criticising PMB. but each passing day he gives me reason to. I was and more so now never been impressed with his take off. it is said that you can't recover from a nice start. ask any sprinter. We may have entered another go slow as a nation. The military chiefs we cried about in the campaign are still intact NNPC leadership is still there drinking tea and laughing. I had expected that he first sack military chiefs, retire the entire NNPC board and management and appoint acting head ...but alas, we are stuck. the NNPC guys are aware danger is ahead and are having a swell time cleaning up their mess. I have given PMB 90 days. at the end of it, Social media will go ablaze if the statusquo remains. 19 Likes 1 Share |

DropShot:What is "intelligence" gathering when we have DSS, DMI and NIA? We are already in working alliance with Cameroon, Chad and Niger in the insurgency fight. So which intelligence should Britain or USA provide? Are you expecting us to surrender our sovereignty to them? Of course, we need them to sell weapons to us but that wasn't what PMB asked at the G7. In fact, you don't need G7 to get that. PMB asked the G7 to assist in fighting corruption. In fact, Cameron tweeted that UK is to establish a unit for us to fight corruption. Is that sane? We all know that UK were the ones that hjailed Ibori. We all know that Switzerland, USA and others are cooperating in repatrating Abacha's fund. There is also bilateral and multilateral agreement with other countries with respect to looted funds. So what does Buhari expect G7 to do again? You should read what Falana is saying and shun this sai buhari fanaticism 60 Likes 6 Shares |

barcanista:This is the problem that I have in having a Fulani man as a President in this time of our national life . The fulanis and their conquered people of the upper Niger of sub Sahara Africa are being used to subjugate the Bantu people to pepertual slavery in their own land but it is unfortunate that some persons even when educated won't see it . We Nigerians have been running after the West to solve our problems but it is usually one tale of woes after another and just when Boko Haram couldn't overrun us like they had anticipated and create a chaos because Jonathan refused to lick their ass by trying to touch their holy grail they kicked him out and replaced him with their usual Fulani yes-sir man but I doubt if Buhari would be an easy meat for them unless he has been compromised too especially when he had to be be gallivanting with those natural born traitors like Tinubu and Obasanjo whom I strongly believe worked and is still working for the West in a way. Why didn't the West take on Obasanjo for committing crimes against humanity in Zaki Biam and Odi? And why has Tinubu's drug related problem in the West gone cold the trail? I'm not the only one thinking this. 53 Likes 5 Shares |
