Ben Bruce you are spot on. We know those crying foul, it is in their DNA to see negatives in all PMB actions and inactions
Sheared HYPOCRISY is telling us before the presidential election that Tinubu will manipulate PMB if elected and later whipping up sentiment that Tinubu have been relegated.
MUMUTOCRACY is rejecting Mr Ukachukwu Ibe as an Ibo from delta state but regarding a kilba man Pastor David B. the present SFG as a hausa-fulani man.

A big pity honestly. Just like I said the other day, there's no empirical evidence that shows any positive correlation between number of appointees from a particular place and the development of such a place.

So to all those who insist on holding on to these primordial sentiments, goodluck. They can keep fighting the battles of politicians for them.

Bross Chukwudi, i never said GEJ has ever been indicted with anything, all am saying here is he GEJ would have probe his successor and there about, OBJ would have done same to Gen Abdulsalam . I will continue to respect GEJ, PMB n those in the helms of affairs because i know i will be there someday, my children, friends n family. That is why i don't argue in this section of NL, i also don't n will never insult anyone cuz i respect people no matter you tribe region or race.
God bless u bro

Well there is no portion of our constitution which says the president can only probe his immediate predecessor!!! If he Buhari is actually serious about fighting corruption,he should start by first showing us his waec certificate and then implementing the reports of the Okigbo and Elumelu panels before talking of probing GEJ.

This cases has already been investigated and concluded what is left is prosecution.

If he knows he does not have the political will to do this then for his own sake and the sake of this country,he should just forget about probing GEJ too as he would be setting this country on fire.

So you actually think it is okay to have all the political appointees comming from the north in the name of merit baa but when it comes to enlisting into unity schools and universities these illiterate northerners would still be given the lowest cut off marks in the name of educationally less advantaged states!!! What hypocrisy is this!!!! There are educationally disadvantaged but when it comes to political appointments they all suddenly become most qualified!!! What impudence!!!

M4gunners:
Thank you mr Ben.Let me ask who was the president of this Country in year 2000? Nigeria Airways gose from 30 aircraft to bankruptcy with 60m debt,why are they not probing the ex president that was in power during this time?

some of you just talk without sense for details. Nigerian airways had no aircraft even during the late 90s.is statement was just a refrence to when the process of liquidating commence. How old are u really.may be uare one of this 1990s babies.what did you even know about obj govt then i guess you were still in primary school then.

adconline:
Can he craft a bill in the senate abolishing fed xter in Army, Polic, Jamb Score, And Unity Schools??

exactly educated people just talk like illiterates. the army ,education etc, federal character should be dismantled especially in education lets see if the north wouldn't go back to 18th century.

[s]Before quota system, we all know those who managed Nigeria. From 1960 to 66...Nigeria saw progress, but from 1967 to present, the Hausa-Fulani and Yorubas has ruined Nigeria[/s]


Stop believing uncle paulinus's junk. One question for your ass. who changed the system from True federalism to Unitary system. who launched the first coup? its safe to say we're suffering because of all these things today. that's why when i see some of you from that side come here to type nonsense. i'm always like




You have no audacity as a person from that side to talk about who destroyed Nigeria

handie:
This talkative still dey exist? He never sponsor any bill o. He hasn't been able to convince his colleagues to stop all their endless recesses o. It's not just about talking up brilliant ideas Mr. Ben Murray Bruce.... You gotta walk your talk

And u think it will sail tru

This man says a lot of jibes on TV 'cos he owns the TV channel
BUT
in the house of Assembly always mute...
He isn't 'making common sense'' with that act..

Quite Easily Said! Take it or leave it Nigeria won't go nowhere till we cancel out ethnicity and start seeing everybody as a Nigerian (first) .

No! We cant afford to shun federal character cos naija is too large, myopic and diverse in ethnicity. Plus 90 percent of Nigerians are gullible, low-thinking tribalists.

Federal character and merit must be merged togeda. So it wont just be an igbo man but an igbo man with a good profile.

Thats the way forward.

HzRF:
And u think it will sail tru

At least let him try.

we igbos welcome it with open arms...
let everything in Nigeria be on merit, in less than 5years some certain peoole would be d first to start blaming igbos for what wud befall dem and there ethnic groups by dat time.

efilefun:
Your brother was there for 8 years both as a president and vice and he couldn't execute a tangible project in his hometown talk less of his geo political zone, and one hungry mofo is here spewing gibberish... Imagine an educated person like you arguing on NL while Asari an illiterate owns university OUTSIDE the country.

The North have ruled ,Nigeria for over 30 of its 55 years of existence yet they have the highest illiteracy and poverty rates in the country.Obviously GEJ and other southern leaders did more for their people thatn those abo.ki cows

[quote author=Aareonakakanfo post=37617861][/quote]

Dunce, we are not talking about who introduced unitary system, we are talking about quota system. ...during the merit days of 1960 to 66 and during the quota system of 1967 to day...I know cowardice and foolishness are same.

efilefun:
So the Hausas and Yorubas helped rule your states also Or was Jona your son also from south west or north? If you don't have something reasonable to offer you can always skip the thread

Then minus 4 years from 1967 till date, besides jona just followed you lots laid down...dunce every where

You talk like an illiterate

truefact:

Then minus 4 years from 1967 till date, besides jona just followed you lots laid down...dunce every where

This is impossible in today Nigeria,there is people with merit in every corner of nig,so we must carry all along but first our constitution is faulty in all faces,so we must make a new constitution where everyone will have voice and nig for all and not only for small section,then there will be trust with equal rights and justice.

The senator representing Bayelsa-East senatorial district, Mr. Ben Murray-Bruce, has said the application of federal character and quota system in the country has impeded national development.
Murray-Bruce said for the country to make progress, “Nigeria must say goodbye to ethnicity and say hello to merit.”
The senator, who stated this on his official Twitter handle on Wednesday, stressed that quota system had impeded progress.
He said advocates of federal character should compare the progress that the country made between 1960 and 1966 before the introduction of the quota system and the “retrogression” made after 1966, when it was introduced.
He said for Nigeria to make progress, ethnicity must be jettisoned while merit must be promoted as the only yardstick for the management of the economy.
He said, “Nigeria must make progress though tribe and tongue may differ. The only way to do that is by saying goodbye to ethnicity and hello to merit.
“Compare the progress that Nigeria made before the quota system (1960-66) and the retrogression we have made since 1966 till date. The difference is clear.
“Federal character cannot make an electrical power station work. It can’t make refinery work. Only merit can ensure this.
“As a result of federal character, Nigeria Airways went from 30 aircraft to bankruptcy and a debt of over $60m by the year 2000. Quota system and federal character lead to a sense of entitlement in beneficiaries and resentment in others. Merit is a better way of life.”

Ben Bruce, has in recent times saying things or comments that shows alignment with the North. .........but, let him connect these dots for me, if he's not being biased. (1). Federal - character, merit and cut off exam mark from different states. (2). Federal - character, merit and 85% ownership of oil wells by people from one region. Nigeria underdevelopment and eternally missed opportunity. ...and the reasoning of the Southern so called elites and leaders. May God save this people. ...... too late though.

When Ben Murray Bruce releases a comment you find offensive to the administration of PMB, I hope you will show you are above hypocrisy.

You talk like an illiterate

You are the definition of illiterate. ..who govern nigeria from 1967 before jona took over or do you want to tell me jona started ruling from 1967? You are worst than illiterate I must say...

...yorubas are coward and morons....they are only professionals when it comes to fetishism, toutism, agberos and siphoning public funds
