Do you even appreciate how the political structure of the country prevents development and makes it difficult to fight corruption?
Things will have to change very slowly as long as Hausas and Yorubas insist on the status quo..
The system we operate presently protects thieves and corrupt people...people need to see this, its more than individuals....

You must be crazy, what statues quo ?

When the Yorubas and Hausas were protesting against their leaders, where were yours ?

When Soyinka was holding hands with Gani, where were your leaders ?

Is it the Igbos that quiet are the Innocent ones ?

Tribalism is indeed killing this country

CORRECTIONS: Over-misuse of and abuse of the holy name of God. God cannot be over-depended on. Nigerians use God's name only when they're getting punished for their covert wickedness.

correction noted and discarded.Nigerians place every minute thing at the feet of God.

the governors are the chief security officers in their various states. no governor has behaved as though boko haram is a security threat in his state. the governors are comfortable with it, but they should be the ones to identify the boko members as they are closer to them. blame the northern governors first before GEJ as their none challant attitude has done more harm than good.

@Delafruita
accept my condolence. i lived in the north when boko haram was only known in MAIDUGIRI, and just after the presidential election crisis, i smelt a rat, i now live in WARRI DELTA state. you need to know how desperate the north wants power back. its crazy, its time nigeria disintegrate.

I dont pity Retardeen at all even he can go to HELL for all i care.

I expect a pig like you to come up with something better worth a good reply . . . You think i have time for your drably tribal slurs . . .

GEJ is not a magician and just immediately they sent boko haram after him. i'll advice him not to resign as nobody has done anything to show him moral or mental support to show patriotism. it looks like he is the problem and not boko haram.

I knew this thread will encourage the evil called tribalism. You can easily read the mindsets of people on board. We pity such evil and destructive trend, and the associated tribalists that cause real problems than the said GEJ.

he should refuse to be intimidated by those not better than him in any form. did they not insist YARADUA should die in office and not resign when it became very obvious he can longer go on. idiotz!

GEJ must as a matter of nigerian factor remain the president and just do the things he can until we begin to address the actual issues and you will see things working out well, even the challenge of boko haram. people, let GEJ be.

Look Mr, you are a mugu. Infact you are not just a CCM, you are an FCCM Fellow Chartered Certified Mugu! I ask again was it Obusanjo that bombed women and children at Ayakorama in 2010? Answer now all you remain an FCCM all your life.

I don't pity any man who does hard work worth doing. I admire him. I pity the creature who does not work, at whichever end of the social scale he may regard himself as being.

Theodore Roosevelt

On that note, I would say I pity Jonathan for not being admirable enough. I pity him also for not working hard enough for the benefit of Nigerian citizens. If he wants my pity, he should rule admirably so that when things go wrong, I can offer him my pity. So far, he's been rather pitiful than admirable.

My opinion.

suberuseyi:
Don't be impassive either. He doesn't need you to pity him: he needs your prayers though.

Mrman, will u shut up?! Is he ur father?

You probably have not heard of Isaac Saka Boro, Saro wiwa, Kaiyama declaration, SS and SE protest walk out on constitutional confab etc...up to niger delta militancy... these people have been fighting for self determination long before the fight for subsidy aka free fuel and Abiola must be president campaigns....

Check the link below and see several protest in Niger delta, you cant be telling me about protesting

Delafruita: for what na?why will i pity shoeless,clueless,brainless,actionless ebele?

Delafruita,take am easy Oohh...! I think PITY aint the right word...anyone with the right words and il pour out my spirit...

Even people that cannot run a family unit successfully, talk less of an organization of people or lead a project all join to comment...internet good sha...The other day there was a thread on how people would solve the boko haram issue...and come and see mis-firing from my fellow Nlers...
Even the simplest task of properly articulating your position against GEJ has become a herculean task, so many mugus here are driven by the removal of subsidy and the Boko issue...
GEJ with all his faults remained the best option in 2011, neither the al qeada rep Buhari nor Ribadu would have done better...having said that , if the SW is fighting him because of his attempts break their hold on the downstream oil sector, and the core north is fighting him because of Power, the development we seek will be slow in coming.
If they succeed in making things difficult for him and turn around to advice him to resign...let me not talk further sha...U.S don talk say na 2015

[size=13pt]No we don't want him to fail. We would never want him to fail

If you want someone to succeed in life you drive the person by telling the person the truth. If he learns his lesson, then he might actually be the best president Nigeria ever had. But would he is the question.

You and Dalover are just to myopic to see this[/size]

Do you agree that the truth is that to solve the corruption issue, Govt has to divest itself from most of the enterprises it is running now

Must the govt run NNPC??

See two key Yoruba leaders asking for more sharing of oil money but also insisting that majority of the VAT produced in Lagos should be kept in Lagos? Is that not hypocrisy?? Does this strike you like people that seriously want change in the way we do things in this country

Nigerian federalism is fraudulent - Tinubu, Aregbesola, Fashola

Tunde Odesola

The leadership of the Action Congress of Nigeria has described the country's federalism as anti-people.


Former Lagos State Governor, A

advertisement

Leaders of the party, who spoke at an induction ceremony held in Osogbo for all ACN's legislators, nationwide, on Thursday, said the country's federalism ran counter to development.

The leaders, who spoke at the ceremony included the National Chairman of the party, Chief Bisi Akande; a former Governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu; Osun State Governor, Mr Rauf Aregbesola, Lagos State Governor, Mr Babatunde Fashola, and the National Secretary of the party, Dr Usman Bugaje.

A cross-section of the leaders called for a review of the constitution to reflect the desires of the citizenry.

In his paper entitled, Leadership and party supremacy, Akande said, "The twin major ingredients of cohesion and discipline are leadership and ideology.

"Ideology represents objectives while leadership provides social influence that motivates people to serve.

"We are constantly promising Nigerians to effect a measured change from what Peoples Democratic Party had fraudulently been doing in the past 12 years."

Tinubu said the Federal Government had no solution to the myriad problems besetting the country, stressing that the government at the centre was perpetrating corruption via the country's federal structure.

The National Secretary of the party, Dr Usman Bugaje, said only the ACN was capable of providing the template for Nigeria's greatness, stressing that the party would continue to work out the political salvation of the country.

Tinubu contended that it was wrong for the Federal Government to unilaterally fix a minimum wage for the 36 states of the country.

Tinubu explained that it was wrong of the Federal Government to unilaterally operate the Excess Crude Account, sell national properties and institutions without giving the proceeds to the state governments.

He said, "The country's Constitution was not written, debated and adopted by the generality of Nigerians. It was the military that wrote it without inputs from the generality of Nigerians. Sovereignty, in our constitution, was taken from the people and given to the Federal Government."

Fashola called for a new allocation sharing formula, which would see the Federal Government receiving 35 per cent of the country's monetary resources while the states take 42 per cent and local government takes 23 per cent.

Like Tinubu, Fashola faulted the Federal Government for fixing the minimum wage for all states, saying that the action negated productivity and creativity.

Fashola, who explained that the minimum wage of blue collar jobs could be fixed, however, argued that it is difficult to fix the wage of white collar jobs.

Supporting the clamour for the establishment of state police, Fashola described the present arrangement wherein the Federal Government controls the police as an aberration.

He said the creation of state police was a veritable avenue of providing mass employment to teeming Nigerian youths, adding that it was wrong of the Federal Government to keep the money charged on Value Added Tax.

Calling for federalism and more allocations from the center at the same time? alternatives to GEJ indeed!!!

If you allow this country to continue after GEJ without a split, then don't complain whatever happens after that.

The Bendel people had it so good under Awolowo that they fought night and day to break free from him...r u in your right state of mind at all? Check the history of Uniben, and how Oba of Benin and other notable mid westerners ad thy were caled then fought to get their own school, because they felt marginalized
when Cocoa was funding west, there was resource control, what is bad in asking for it to be re-instated...or your monkey brain cannot grapple this concept...

See Yoruba man whats to decieve us again oo, we 9ja deltans should split the country and you will turn around, combine with the north and fight us....We saw how Awo did it previously....You guys should start first ...we are following closely behind...we want to split tooo...but we r behind you...shebi you have OPC, you have seen mend taking on Nigerian armed forces, lets see OPC, then we will follow...not the other way round ...

LOL they had it bad under the western region and that was why Yorubas freed them ?

NCNC aka Nnamdi Azikwe split the western region for political reasons best know to him.

THE MID-WEST DID NOT FIGHT NIGHT AND DAY, In fact there was no fight so stop lying your stu.pid igbo man. There was a referendum and Oba Bini decided to have the mid-west.

Thus the west was the first region to split, Yorubas did not fight a war because of that neither did the mid-west. Only for years later Ojukwu to invade them. So you see, you sir are not from the mid-west and I dare any mid-western to challenge me on this. I am not talking about your Igbotic goons

Ok ! You lair

The links I brought out were by Ijaws and Urhobos so go figure

Dalover please tell GEJ to split the country. Thanks

I'm not into this argument but I have to correct the impression on your first paragraph.
It was MAINLY an NCNC initiated split not because Mid-westerners were suffering.
Read professor Omoruyi's account!

I WAS INVOLVED AS A PARTISAN POLITICIAN

I am hesitating to write about the story of the creation of Midwest or Edo State, for another reason. I was an active partisan politician at the University of Ibadan opposed to both the NCNC and the AG, the two popular political parties in the two provinces of Benin and Delta. I was also a political science student at the University of Ibadan with a knack for the drama in the Western Region and its impact on the politics of 1964 Federal Elections.

It is simplistic to label the NCNC as pro-Midwestern Region from the abundance of the goodwill of the Igbo or their leader, Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe. It is also simplistic to label the AG as against the new Region from the wickedness of the Yoruba and their leader, Chief Obafemi Awolowo. Maybe we should ask few questions.

What was so special about Midwest that was absent in the Calabar-Ogoja-River State?

Why should the NCNC support the creation of a Region in the West and not in the East and in the North?

How many of us appreciate the strategic decision of the NPC to go southwards in 1962 during the intra-party crisis in Action Group in the Western Region?

How many of us appreciate the impact of the monumental crisis in Yoruba land in 1962 on the creation of the new Region?

How many of us appreciate the bond between Chief FS Okotie-Eboh and Alhaji Muhammadu Ribadu?

How many of us appreciate that this bond more critical than what the NCNC appreciated to the creation of the Region?

How many of us knew of the relationship between Apostle John Edokpolor and the Sardauna of Sokoto?

How many of us knew how that impacted on the creation of the Midwestern Region?

How many of us knew why Apostle John Edokpolor was made one of the Commissioners during the Interim Administration of the new Region?
