APC should just mend fence with Saraki and Dogara snd move on for the benefits of Nigeria. After all, he invested in making APC win the election and he represents the PDP faction that defected.

With Atiku, Amaechi, Dogara and many more on his side, there is nothing Tinubu or APC can do to him else they break their party.

TANoids, over to you.

....I think am abit comfortable with your opinion about the whole issue...but the biggest problem or probably enemy that apc has is tinubu..why is he interested in everything as if he built apc alone..we all know the impact on obj in that election and saraki , oyinlola, segun oni is one of objs loyalist....tinubu took the office of the chairman of the party by giving it to oyegun, and that's why the likes of alimodu sherrif and tom ikimi left the party, he single handedly nominated Osinbajo and now he wants the speaker and also the senate president...that's greediness of the highest order....we all know the impact of saraki too before the election and I see no know reason why tinubu will be against him.on the issue of gbaja.....law of karma is what actually happened, 2011 we all know the role he played by thwarting the ambition of mulikat the oyo pdp candidate for the position.he should just learn how to be less greedy and always have respect for people around him.

The President Muhammadu Buhari's convey in a normal Presidential way block roads leading to the airport this morning. I almost missed my flight but thanks to checking in online. I really think the President should use the helicopter and stop making the police and soldiers stand under the rain and block civilians from their daily activities.

Who exactly did this daura cow rearer hand over the mantle of leadership of this country to? His boy boy osibanjo is in South Africa. No SGF. Nothing. I don't even understand

Did anybody notice where OBJ shunned all the past leaders? Sonekan was even trying to smile and greet, Obasanjo just jor the man. That man something else.

Guys, you all need to understand that senators are not covered by immunity neither does NDLEA needs a warrant to arrest someone if there's a probable cause to do so.
What Kashamu Buruju is waiting for is Wednesday, 27th. He has instituted a case seeking a PERPETUAL INJUNCTION from prosecution and he's most likely to get a favorable judgement because he's alleged in political circle to have that same judge in his pocket, on his payroll. Curiously, all the cases he filed in the past have been assigned to the same judge and he has always got favorable judgements. NDLEA and his political traducers are aware of this and that's why they'll stop at anything to ship him to U. S before Wednesday. On the other hand, if he gets that judgement on Wednesday, he can never be tried again in Nigeria or extradited till he dies!. He has planned to get the judgement before May 29th when GEJ is still in power. So, it'll get more interesting between now and Wednesday as OBJ and others have the last chance to ship Kashamu Buruji to the U. S failure of which he will legally walk freely for life. They all know the game they are playing very well and someone must win!.
If you ask him if it's possible to get perpetual injunction in Nigeria, Peter Odili is enjoying it and he can never be tried for corruption/embezzlement that allegedly happened under his watch as governor even if his well-known enemy becomes Nigeria President.

[color=#1980BC] But you were dancing azonto during #Occupy Lagos..Why the cries? You created the monster cabals,you made them powerful when you fought against GEJ's policy to quashing their power and monopoly which would have made energy supplies readily available at all times including during power vaccums.We don't see what the fuss is about when an airliner decides to refuel, tis not as if the Jet is refueling during flight via a KC-135 Tanker aircraft..

ichidodo:
[color=#1980BC] [b] Well,first off Buhari never built any refinery maybe he commissioned one or two but he never was part of any team that conceptualize,initiate and build any refinery at any time whatsoever.Now we have gotten that small humdrum out the way tis better for us to come to an agreement as to the fears of these marketers currently brewing this artificial scarcity,if Buhari will shut down subsidy-ironically, the same motion GEJ sought about to initiate but was opposed by the opposition,the cabals and ordinary naive Nigerians decieved in #Occupy Lagos- will these same marketers get their investments back especially now the dollar is at an all time high? If not, tis businness savvy to start a scarcity and sell your product at quadruple the normal rate so as to get back your capital and profit before the new government settles down. We don't see how the blame is Goodluck's instead we have gullible Nigerians to blame who protested against their freedom and occupied Lagos when Goodluck sought to liberate Nigerians from the shackles of the cabal...Freedom,we had the chance to be free or dum(b) but Nigerians were bambozzled by the opposition and cabal into choosing dum(b).[/b] [/color]

JingoOAU:
Our international reputation has reduced drastically to the extent that the US secretary of state, equivalent to our SFG is being sent to represent a country...forget dis super power of a thing

Nigeria is so big enough for Obama to come personally...what an insolence

aminho:
the US secretary of state IS equivalent to a foreign minister not even sgf

SeverusSnape:
Buhari the first Nigerian Kidnapper.
That act was a monumental disgrace, Which caused a lot of diplomatic impasse between Nigeria and Britain.

Chiaka:
Well if the condition is not favourable they should pack and leave. Several other companies will grab the juicy opportunity

IzonOwei:
who gives a damn if its or not?...if not for mad reasons why should fpso parts be constructed miles away from where it would be installed??..this is how all oil companies are in lagos thereby stifling the lil chance the niger deltans have to get oil jobs...

Ujulabelle:
I'm not from Niger Delta but I know a bit of history. They have been marginalised. That is why they become violent. How can Federal government during military era moved refinery from Niger Delta to Kaduna? Is it not risky? Just because Northerners want to control the economy leaving the owners in abjectivity. They should build the refinery in Niger Delta and at the same time maintain a peaceful relationship with the native. Niger Deltans are not evil. It is just that the governmnet has not treated them well. The oil mafias too have not treated them well. Let's be sincere if Jonathan packed all the resources to his ppl, we would still complain.

so liberty square was change to tinubu square

hope would not change eagle square to .........

Equalizer:
I said it before now that Adamu Mua'zu must go cos he's a betrayal... How can a former governor of Bauchi state not deliver PDP in his state... I never trusted that man from the onset... Fayose our able role model please expose him...

A widow’s chemical dream

(published Sunday June 19, 2011)

I had a dream and in it, I found myself in 2015. I saw President Goodluck Jonathan at a Presidential handover ceremony. The venue looked like the Eagle Square, Abuja. The atmosphere was a very festive one. The aso-ebi were in all colours of the rainbow. There were PEOPLE dancing and drummers drumming. Suddenly I noticed that there were more brooms than umbrellas being waved in the air. Then I looked at the podium and saw that the President was handing over to an opposition party candidate. Yes, I saw Dr Goodluck Jonathan , a PDP President, handing over the reins of power to a candidate from a party that is not PDP. I screamed Tufiakwa. Then I woke up.

That must sound like a bad dream or even a nightmare to PDP but there is really no cause for alarm yet for the party that has sworn to rule Nigeria for 60 years. After all, it was the product of the head or mind or both of a widow. And considering the amount of sedatives I was pumped with, it probably was just a chemical dream.

However, after a bottle of soft drink, I was calmer and began to think that maybe the former PDP chairman, Sir Vincent Ogbulafor, who first predicted that PDP will rule Nigeria for 60 years actually meant to say 16.

You know if you have a sore throat or catarrh, 16 may come out as 60. And if PDP will rule for 16 years and it started in 1999, wouldn’t 2015 be the terminal DATE? And with what has happened to the largest party in Africa in the last few weeks, one can’t help but wonder if PDP would retain any state or its stake at the national level in the next election. Nothing seems to be looking up in that party. Or am I the only seeing this? And then that chemical dream… well, it’s just a product of a sedative-infested mind. Nothing to worry about.

+The problem is the subsidy. Remove the subsidy and the cartel will eveporate.

I am sure there is no diesel scarcity. Its because that fuel has been free of that subsidy bondage.

Nigerians will continue to cry as long as they want this petrol subsidy.
