Babzrockman:
For the past 4wks now, it has been Amaechi here and there. Today everything will end positively for him.

MizMyColi:
Passingshot
Isn't it surprising to you that nobody asked him about the Judiciary palava during his tenure as governor?

Imagine this Prof telling us that history is no more taught in schools today. I was already surprised when the Senator asked about lack of civic education and history been taught in schools as done before only to be angry that a potential minister of education doesn't know that also.
Unilorin peeps, don't you have history department in your school or doesn't he know know that civic edu is been taught in primary schools and history in sec schools?
He's just boring and not promising.

IYANGBALI:
before nko?do not tell me dat you believe in this screening?they are all the same,all they are doing is film trick. Amaechi was confirmed right from the day his name was written

IYANGBALI:
wetin him talk?abeg you get him fone number?

GenBuhari:
The professor is a pure technocrat and is not a "noise maker".

His inexperience from politics may mean he may have been picked for being clean from corruption.

Education Minister me thinks.

lookandlaff:



he won't make a good minister, period! I said it a few days ago, Professor doesn't mean anything.

themilanway:


Why are your dumb PDP senators refusing to ask him any questions?

I would rather a corrupt man who creams of the top but had good ideas and implements them than a clean man with no ideas who is incompetent or has no managerial experience or record and who will waste our money on poorly thought out ideas.


I just hope in the unfortunate event that this prof is confirmed, he is made a junior minister

Blame PDP senators who chickened out. APC senators tried by asking him questions some of which bothered on the allegations against him. Amaechi spent almost one hour answering questions from APC senators. If PDP was for politics without bitterness, they could have participated as well.

Nichobabe:


I don't think he will make a good minister. He is too old for the current world.

The man didn't even know the name of the deputy senate president (I hope he evenknow he was the deputy senate president)

my opinion - Senate should not confirm him, the worst so far

showblack:
Finally he has been asked to take a bow and go.. Waling waliers how the stuff come go now. God sack devil

Alveez:




Ur submission on why Akpabio was invited by EFCC is...Am sorry rather myopic and informed by half baked information at your disposal sir . Because if are very up to date on d issue u are wailing about you will understand that Senator Akpabio himself after his first visit to EFCC told d press that the invitation has been sent to him right before he had accident and went abroad for treatment. So where is the correlation between Ameachi's ministerial confirmation and Akpabio's invitation to come defend allegations of corruption levelled against him one lawyer from his state?

Am not against airing ur views about issues but misleading d public and indeed the world who come in contact with our post worldwide is not so good for you as an individual and d image of the country. Nigeria name has be been battered worldwide already, don't let us be adding salt to the injury. If you wanna leave no problem, d world is a global village already. But please, please and please stop making unnecessary submission based on ur personal unsubstantiated prejudice to rub more mud on d name Nigeria.

I love Nigeria my country, God bless Nigeria.

@ the emboldened, how will corruption allow a corrupt man implement anything meaningful?

Are you corrupt?

MizMyColi:


Well, there's twice as much we don't know than we do know.
From my observation of unspoken words and reactions, a session held before the session we witnessed.

There is something about their collective silence.
Either ways, it is what it is and I am disappointed at both sides.
Those folks up there are not worth being called my leaders.
I'm sorry to say, but they disgust me.

There was only one question from the red cap man on allegations....the rest were gloating. Please what's the red cap man's name?
I stand to be corrected.

When a man wakes up, freshens up, and goes to the senate with the mindset of representing the interest of a hundred million Nigerians and then ends up asking questions like...What is your recipe for peace between ministers and governors....?
Then there's problem.
A big problem.
We can keep living in denial, it's allowed.

Breaking.: Amaechi to be screened on Tuesday next week. Just read it on channelstv.com

lookandlaff:


the point is it is better to see a man with the vision to conceive and bring a worthwhile and long lasting project to the people but takes a kickback in the process, than a man who wastes our money on a project that benefits no one because it wasn't well thought out in the 1st place.


I'm not condoning corruption or advocating appointing corrupt people but Incompetence is just as bad as corruption! And in the search for "clean" hands lets not disregard ability, vision, ideas, past record in management and especially competence simply because a man is clean.


If you build a world class road, take a kick back and it lasts 25 years no pothole, as far as benefit to the people and value for money, you are better than the man who builds a road takes no kick back but the road collapses after 2 years. You have wasted money and you will have to find money to fix that road.


like I said I'm not condoning corruption but incompetence is close if not just as bad.

PassingShot:

The man is Gbenga Ashafa.

The only side to blame today is PDP.

The fact is that there was no legal and genuine reason not to screen Amaechi since he has not been indicted by any law court.

So, PDP erred in failing to ask him the tough questions as expected. Though he may still have scaled the screening despite those questions, but they will have done their part.

MizMyColi:


Akpabio gave a valid reason, imo.

PassingShot:

What reason is it?

Eseose9:
I like this Nominee from kogi
The best so far among those screened today

ziccoit:
This Kogi man is really murdering the senators..
