Chukazu:
EZEKWEZILI made a valid point

But my worries is the president shouldn't be the one advising the World Bank,that should totally be their own prerogative agenda from the Bank

Buhari shouldn't be the one dishing out order to them ,it looks more like a personal interest

rifasenate11:
please Aunty Oby, are you saying for fact that the president of world back who is highly disciplined is lying??. well, I cannot blame you at all, PMB has done what is unimaginable Alright. it maybe hard for you to believe it. but, a lot of people don't need to be told by the president of world back, that PMB is a sectional bAstrd.

ivandragon:
the Niger Delta has been ravaged for over 40 years, why can't PMB also request for a special focus for the region that put Nigeria on the map as a key nation?


Lagos state is being threatened to be over run by the Atlantic ocean, why can't a special focus be given to the issue?


so when world bank gives loans to rehabilitate the north which started the destruction of their own land just to spite southern leaders, it is the same south that will be ravaged to pay back the loan...


madam oby, do not let the fear of PMB make you pull your punches, as a former VP at the WB, you know quite well the region that will be exploited to repay the loans...

do you think its fair?

Sycophancy has always been a major problem for this country.

If the world bank operates that way; why would they need Buhari's input to know what part of the country to prioritize?

If the world bank operates that way; why would they need Buhari's input to know what part of the country to prioritize? Of course, the world bank would do what a president of a country tells them, because they're really not interested in development. But, this's entirely a different topic.

Buhari telling World Bank, to focus on north east, whether misread, misquoted, misinterpreted IS NOT OUT OF PLACE. That region is in need of rehabilitation and restoration after the menace brought upon them by the activities of Boko Haram Insurgents. Over 10 million IDPs are in Borno alone

CharleyBright:
.Dear Mr President, I was never your fan and so i was indifferent even as i partially supported your election as President because I wanted the Past GEJ Administration out of office cos of their flagrant corruption.
Two years after your election, you have shown all the traits that made me not to be your fan. Stubbornness, high handedness, I-know- it -all attitude, Religious bigotry, Sectionalism, Nepotism and Administrative incompetence has been your way. They are still very much in u.
Dear Mr President, When it is needful for you to voice your thoughts on burning issues, you always chose to be silent because it involves your kith and kin. And whenever you chose to talk, you spew your bigotry nature and tear the country apart along ethnic and religious lines.
Dear Mr President, your request to the world bank chief to focus on and favor the North is an attestation of your Nepotic inclination and very synonymous with your [b]95% to 5% [/b]acrimonious analogy.
Nigeria has never been this divided like is it in last two years since your election.
Dear Mr President, you wanted the record so badly to be a Military Head of State as well as civilian President. You came, you have seen, you have conquered. That's enough.
We wanted Corruption out, but you came with your Bigotry to add to the corruption. Indeed Nigerians are worse off than they were during the past administration.
Dear Mr President, come 2019, do Nigerians some good and pack yourself out of Aso Rock.
We will do our duty to pray we don't have another you as occupant of that villa.

Are you sure you read all she said? Niger Delta has always received interventions in various forms. Lagos state's issue can never be a priority for the FG at this moment. Even though you despise the man, you shouldn't be scared of being truthful at times when it matters. North East and in extension the Northern region needs all the interventions and aids it can get at this time. Millions have been dipslaced and rendered homeless.. Several villages are practically non-existent again. You really don't have to politicize everything. It's not even as though it's the World Bank that will solve the gross of our national problems.

Dr Oby Ezekwesili Reacts To President Buhari's Request To The World Bank To Focus On Northern-Eastern Nigeria.

Dr Oby Ezekwesili has been very critical of the Buhari Administration in recent times and this has also earned her criticism from President Buhari's supporters, but she said that the fact that she stands on the side of truth means that she will say the truth about anyone, regardless of whether they consider her to be a friend or an enemy.

And therefore she decided to say the truth about President Buhari’s request to the World Bank to focus on the North-East. Remember that she served as vice president of the World Bank, so she knows how the organisation works.

AntiWailer:


Did you read ?

Try to read so you won't be sounding like a chronic idiot.

AntiWailer:


She spoke as a former Vice Pesident in World Bank.

Can we meet you please ?

GavelSlam:


You are a songwriter/philosopher, while an ex World Bank VP has laid down the truth, yet you refuse to believe.

It's like me saying a stradivarius is not a violin what do I know about music but listen to it?

Try and remove any form of bias in your opinion shaping Mr.philosopher cum Musician.

ivandragon:



do you know the hundreds of millions of dollars in aid that has been given & pledged to assist the reconstruction of the North East? was there any complain about that?

when BH started with the destruction of churches & killings of non-muslims, didn't the North keep quiet because the destruction was targeted at non-salafists?


the problem with you & your ilk is that you dabble into areas you have no knowledge, but because you lot make a lot of noise, you think you are knowledgeable in that area.

you say the ND has being receiving interventions, fine, hasn't the North also being receiving same?

you say villages are non existent, do you know the number of areas in the ND that have become inhospitable because of the reckless oil exploration? at least once BH is 'defeated' people in the North can go back to their villages, some villages in the ND will remain inhospitable for at least 50 years...


look, take your myopic view elsewhere. argue with your fellow airheads please.

FriendNG:
Pigs come and insult Oby. Call her use and dump as usual.

Oby who was once in the position of Kim see no wrong in moving focus to North East Nigeria.






The conflict of Boko Haram affect the whole north. There isn't a region without a bomb blast in the north during the last administration.

Infact Jos (NC) and Kano (NW) suffered insurgency more than Gombe state and Taraba of Northeast.

And North West is now safe in the hands of Pmb and not the lies you're trying to paint.

Tell me when last bomb blast happen in Northwest and North central since the coming of this new administration and I will list countless number of bomblast in these two regions b4 the coming of Buhari.


You must not lie to make your point.

GavelSlam:


And you know more than a former VP who even provided a quote on the question posed to Mr. Kim which elicited his reaction?

Firefire:
Buhary is a bigoted sectional ruler, period!

userplainly:
We keep seeing post like Obi one tin one tin reacts to buhari's this or Ohanaeze speaks on buhari bla bla... Ibo pipo keeps talking n making noise while Lagos Yoruba men r working day n night building Lagos, I know say my state leaders "delta state na dirty mindless twats sha" but the amount of effort Igbo leaders use in their reactions to buhari or ipob or army issue is too much, if they channel that effort to development they would've been chasing Lagos by now....

bkool7:


Did Ipob bomb anywhere in the East?

or was there war in the East?
