It is a major time bomb truly. All those that think it is a joke are either still in school or are of school age but not attending school.
Irrespective of El-rufai's ideology, unemployment is a major issue in Nigeria that is being swept under the carpet...

One of the killers was ranting about his country being left alone by the west ors something...which country? I think this individuals are plain confused childish minds. Although no one can say he knows how to raise perfect children but methinks children in diaspora need to be allowed to fully appreciate and understand their origin...and not think they are alone or different and the world is against them...

i hear there are many who don't show for census...the Councillor is councillor to everyone, those with pali and those without. Jokes aside, maybe he meant to say there are 1million Nigerians in the UK - london and outside london.

Bisade Ologunde...na him

Did she not evade that Alams pardon question like a pro? smooth operator Ma..

with all the coverage on boston bomb blast...you may need to check for repeat times

I find myself saying this greeting frequently - long life to the woman and more prosperity to the boy.

This is very good...We need people to connect the dots and let the citizens and especially the leaders/rulers see the cause and effect relationship of corruption and poverty.

KingPradas: WHY CAN'T PEOPLE READ THE CAPTION IT SAID ELECTRIC CIGARETTE, IT'S DIFFERENT FROM THE REAL THING.

Michaeljones36: What's going to happen to all his stolen money?

Nigerians need to properly educate themselves of Nigeria's history and correctly identify its issues and their causes. So that when the wind of change blows (my prayer it does soon), innocent people are not wrongfully judged...

The war on corruption in government is so feeble and has only managed to convict a handful. It is very puerile and there is just no sane excuse for the government to pardon Alamieyeseigha. This just emboldens those stealing government funds...very disgraceful.

Alams is now pardoned. For all his sufferings, GEJ should send him on holiday to the UK where he can be a guest of Her Majesty....it will be a very long and memorable holiday...

kudos to a born brave foot-soldier...

Some people see and hear about this and are thinking of things they can do to change the situation - unfortunate thing is when they start to harbor thoughts of how they can also make small money (GEJ mentality), the devil and mammon will prove again that it is one. We never forget Kenny Martins, OBJ's in-law with the Police Equipment Foundation and the tens of billions of Naira that grew legs and then wings...na today

Northerners or no Northerners, my guy GEJ you are O.Y.O.

Afterall, unlike Obama you don't wake up each day thinking about how to positively affect the life of the masses by improving the economy (healthcare, infrastructure, security etc) but that of your immediate friends/praise singers and their families.

Pffftttttt

The drug being touted is not an anti-HIV drug but one used for the treatment of diarrhea associated with anti-HIV drugs.

Prof Iwu has had controversies trailing him in the academia before he even became Electoral Umpire...This does not preclude the fact that he could be a good research scientist.

michealade: call me Hi ta ya...

I will be SUN SHINE SOON.
Me, I still want to have a name that is English sounding in case GEJ buys back Nigeria from the Chinese and decides to sell to America...

CHOP I CHOP GOVT

The day he says he wants to be remembered as the best president Nigeria ever had or would ever have...

A few years ago when Nigerians were said to be the happiest people on earth, the Nigerian leaders were busy siphoning money away...
Now Nigeria does not feature in the top of the list of happy nations, the leaders are not only still chopping the money, but are now abusing Nigerians for not smiling anymore.

A nation where the leaders (GEJ etc) expect the ordinary citizens (market woman, shoemaker etc) to be the ones to lead.

Prexzi: They broke Rules n dey were expelled, mind u, dey were nt forced to come to d sch... Who born U to try ham 4 OAU?

To try what exactly or break which rule at OAU? The OAU I attended is not a barbaric school.

absolutely fantastic **pls close your eyes and assume Alex Ferguson said that

sanandreas: I dnt really know where we are going.

Are you in one of the buses?

It could be a fun year. Make new friends and you can make plans (too much time, if you ask me) to properly plan on a career etc. If you have to work in Nigeria you need to have the NYSC certificate and to get this the honorable way you need to do the 1yr service.

As you want to return to London, it would be good if you try and do your primary assignment in a company where you get to learn stuff you are interested in. That can help you experience-wise when you go back to the UK as you may not easily get graduate trainee or entry level jobs in your area of interest over there.

You just have to be careful you serve in a relatively safe state or town in Nigeria. Nigeria is not the best country in the world at appreciating the life of its citizens.

fishy

I don read read read ...I laughed and laughed and laughed.
biz4naija, graduate of unilag? or Aluu ex-resident?
I bow for you o....remember God dey

madam SEC nkoh? ok former madam

It is a simple problem. Our culture of yes-sir yes-ma (from fear and not healthy respect) of the ordinary people toward those in senior/higher positions on one hand; and the lack of intelligence of those in positions of responsibility to not know governance/responsibility is about service to others on the other hand.

GEJ did not promise to stop kidnappings...

olas2u: The Goodluck Johnathan administration as increased the poverty level in Nigeria.That subsidy removal nonsense was just to take from the poor and give to the rich.He should go away after is tenure.

GEJ said in his last TV interview that he did not promise to eliminate poverty but create wealth....so why is anybody complaining

When America (especially their loosing parties in almost every election) would rather dump the electoral college....someone wants it for another country?

By the way, the easy and clear process of popular votes is not even practiced correctly in Nigeria ...now we should go for a more obfuscating process!

Sir, we can stick to prayers...Nigeria Pray.
