kikikikikikikikikikikikikiki!!!!!!!! the only way to see a person's true colours is to press his buttons and see how they react. Tayo is an azz-wipe!! just get ready for DS and see how he's going to explain the situation and beg for forgiveness to Africa as usual. the reaction on NL will be Tayo make sense Miss P pushed him. NO amount of apologies will undo what he said to her. Now we see the devil in Tayo and he's a sexist
Well Tayo has had his DS and he did not apologise. He actually reteriated the same thing he said yesterday that he only gave just a bit of what he could have said.

Miss P had her own DS after him and she revised her list of top 3 which she gave yesterday - Goitse, Idris and Ellah to Goitse, Idris and Tayo.

Her reason for dropping Ellah is that she just simply doesn't deserve winning the money. She feels Idris is playing double game while she feels Tayo is playing the game well but displays weakness when you least expect him to. She is of the opinion that Goitse has very strong character.

On this ocassion, Ellah accepted Uti's invitation to visit Lagos but only replied Vimbai that way when she interjected her conversation with uti. Vimbai made it sound as if Ellah could not afford the ticket to honour Uti's invitation hence her offer of sponsorship.

I don't care if it was Gej or even Shekau that got rid of Ebola in nigeria. Today is one of few days one is proud of naija.

Anytime news break about nigeria, I always go to Yahoo News site not for the news but for the comments from those white supremacists. You wouldnt be disappointed about what you knew they would say.

Today is refreshingly different. They use nigeria case to turn the heat on Obama. Many ignorantly but arrogantly claimed that nigeria was able to contain Ebola because it closed its borders to all Ebola stricken countries and wondered why Obama would not do the same.

A notorious Danny wrote "let us hire these people to handle our crisis. Common sense always a better choice than political posturing" . He got good ratings.

For once the supremacists are not writing about Nigeria Scam Prince

PoliticsRe: FG To Halt Importation Of Petroleum Products By 2018 — Aganga by 2n2k(m): 10:50am On Oct 18, 2014
^^^ Good suggestion about subsidizing at source (crude oil) hopefully Nigerian factor will not creep in.

I will rather government hands off everything. Hard way. Yes. But it appears the only way. The refineries we are expecting in future are supposed to be privately owned not government. How do we subsidize private companies? What happen if refineries are set up based on the subsidized crude scenario and there is a change in government and consequential change in policy? We will be back to square one.

Cement price is higher now than 10 years ago when we were importing but NLC and TUC had not called for strike because they know it arose from pure private economic decision. If it had been that government initially subsidized limestone and later withdraw it to cause this high price, there would have been social unrest.

ratiken:
All you insatiable unrepentant Nigerians...... what exactly do you want?
Take away subsidy...... they say NO
Budget for the subsidy. ... they say its too high
Plan a gradual stop to importation of oil products which eliminates the subsidy.... they say govt is shameless

98% of complaining Nigerians have no clue the way out of our current mess..... they fault every damn thing.
@bolded. It is this kind of mis-interpretation that gets the hope of masses high and when such wrong hope is not met, they accuse government of insincerity.

Local refining of petroleum and subsidy are mutually exclusive and in no way related.

Subsidy arose because the cost to the pump of fuel is higher than the price the government/public think is affordable to the paying public and since the full economic cost of production and distribution must be paid, government cushions the effect hence, the subsidy.

In case of local production, the only cost that may not be incurred is the shipping cost of the refined products to nigeria and what is the percentage of that to the total costs? The savings from that may even be wiped out by higher cost of other variables.


Local production is highly desirable because it will generate employment, reduce pressure on forex, put our destiny in our own hands and remove the shame of being just raw materials supplier BUT it may not reduce the pump price of fuel to the level that most Nigerians wrongly envisage unless the price of crude crashes which is another sad story from another perspective.

If you read the OPs article well, while the FG promised local production by 2018, it did not say it will remove subsidy by 2018 because they are not related. If the government can summon the political will and damn all consequences, it should be able to remove the subsidy long before then even as early as after the elections. Subsidy is an internal nigeria arrangement, it does not concern the refineries (whether local or foreign) since the marketers must pay them in full before they can lift the products.

The one he was evicted was won by RICCO, runner up was Munya.
For the records, he did not smash the glasses on the day of his eviction. He smashed the glass door of the holding bay on the day that Lucile (that beautiful lass that he was apparently eyeing) was evicted. That was a week before his eventual eviction. People used that incident to campaign against him that he was violent, hence he was voted out the following week.

The way Fintiri opened the tap of the state treasury right from his first week in office - buying cars for all LG chairmen and traditional rulers, etc, Adamawa would have had it if he wins the bye-election.

His Speaker position is still thankfully reserved for him. Adamawa has been ruled in the past 2 months by the "Actings". Acting Governor, Acting Speaker and Acting Chief Judge. Let each person reverts to his substantive position.

haba this is not exam but let me try

He is still in PDP but he will definitely leave PDP because he has nothing to gain in PDP for now because Umar Fintiri is PDP candidate for bye Election and Marwa or Ribadu is for general Election. thus he will get nothing from staying in PDP

For now we don't know where his loyalty is

bye election suppose to take place this month, but based on this new development, bye election will take place some where in january during primary election seasons thus the new governor will have only 4 months to steal thus Nyako coming back is waste of Time for both him and the state

Ribau can still contest primary election in january regardless of who is the acting governor
abbakacici:
Umar Fintiri should just wait till january contest the bye election which he can easily win, but i know our politician he will prepare to burn the state to the ground then wait 90 days and continue stealing because if he win his appeal thus the following scenario might occur
1) interpretation of when the 90 days will start
2) if he win his appeal in november bye election and general election might clash
You are wrong. When a governor is removed and the deputy takes over, the constitution stipulates that the deputy takes over as substantive governor not as acting governor and he will complete the tenure of office of the removed governor.

There will be no election in Adamawa until February 28 2015 when general gubernatorial elections take place throughout the country and ngilari is going to be in office until May 29 2015. If he stands for election on 28/2/2015 and wins, he will start a new fresh term of four years on May 29 2015.

"What integrity has Obasanjoin terms of his lagacies for Nigeria to speak on elections? Apart from his aborted third term ambition, he brought about and left a legacy of electoral corruption in the country.  What is Obasanjo talking about? He should go away and retire in shame politically. He should leave the political landscape of this country alone. He brought a whole salad of corruption manipulations and failure"

Fast forward 2014, Obasanjo has become the pillar of democracy in Nigeria. Gospel according to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and somebody on nairaland told me I should respect him. SMH
Nothing wrong with that. It is all politics. In order to get to power, you need both your friends and enemies. When you have gotten it, you separate the wheat from the chaff.

During 2007 elections in which tinubu was propping fasola, Obj said about tinubu that the only thing verifiable about him is that he is a human being, every other things about him are fake and implored lagosians to distance themselves from such being. What is happening today?

Don't be surprised if Chief Edwin Clark is the next person to visit Obj to solicit his support for GEJ. Does that make Clark or gej subservient to obj?

Ribadu saw nothing. As at today, Ribadu has no chance to be the presidential candidate of any of the two leading parties.

In 2011, ACN knew it had no chance in hell of winning presidential election against PDP and therefore was ready to 'dash' the candidacy to any Johnny just come just to show appearance unlike now that the merged parties have a fighting even if remote chance against pdp.

Don't equate exposure in the media to political (grassroots) worth. Ribadu cannot defeat Buhari or Atiku in a party primaries even if conducted in his bedroom. Pdp conveniently sidelined him in Adamawa bye-election and there is no report yet of political backlash to pdp.

Maurice Iwu, who is a Professor of Pharmacognosy, was appointed Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in June 2005, and was later removed from office in April 2010.

According to Fashola: “I was curious about what Professor Maurice Iwu was doing with elections if he was already researching on how Bitter Kola can cure some diseases.

“He should come back and do his work because really this is his core competence and if he is listening to me, I am challenging him that he will be able to reopen the frontiers of that research and present it, this organization will fund it.”

If the LASG had not deferred to FG on this, we would have blamed it as well for undermining GEJ.

The president was aware that Lasg was already probing the cause of the collapse before he announced the intention of the FG to probe the accident. He even announced that the FG would meet all the states governors on issue of building collapse.

We should defer to the president that he must have been aware of some issues which informed the FG's decision to dabble into a purely state matter and also commend the Lasg for cooperating with the FG to address what is turning out to be an 'unusual' accident.

Recall that it is even from South African government official we are hearing the number of casualties (far above the one given by Nigerian officials who are supposedly on ground) which they are not limiting to the number of their own nationals only. How come?
PoliticsUS Court Says Buruji Kashamu Is Still A Fugitive by 2n2k(op): 5:38am On Sep 19, 2014
A United States of America's Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit sitting at Illinois has declared a Peoples Democratic Party's chieftain, Buruji Kashamu‎ a fugitive wanted in America for trial for allegedly importing drug to the country.

Delivering judgment in an application by Kashamu for a Writ of Mandamus, Justice Charles R. Norgle refused to quash an indictment issued against the PDP's chieftain.

The court held that the indictment against him had no expiration date.

The court held that, "Should he ever come to the United States, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, he could be put on trial in the federal district court in Chicago, since the indictment has no expiration date.

“An original indictment remains pending until it is dismissed or until double jeopardy or due process would forbid prosecution under it.”

Kashamu, a dual citizen of Nigeria and Benin, was charged in an indictment returned by a federal grand jury in Chicago, along with thirteen other persons, with conspiracy to import heroin into the United States and distribute it, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 963.

The US government believed that Kashamu was the leader of the conspirators.

He was indicted both in his own name and under what the government believed to be two aliases that he used: “Alaji”‎ and "Kasmal".

‎Based on the refusal of a magistrate in the United Kingdom to grant a request by the US to extradite him, Kashamu filed an application in the US seeking to nullify his indictment.

The UK Magistrate had refused to grant the application to extradite Kashamu on the ground that the US did not conclusively prove that he was the same Alaji wanted in the US for trial.

Have you even tried imagining the multiplier effect of a vibrant auto industry? Spare parts dealers, tire manufacturers, electricians, battery sellers. What of the people that will be directly employed in these factories. Restaurants that will serve these industries? Do you think the US, Japan and other major car producing countries did so by replying on imported cars?

Everything must not be seen from the ethno-religious and/or party prism.



P.s : your grammar is terrible, maybe you should spend more time upgrading yourself.
Tokunbo vehicles will also require the enbolded if not more. So what gives.

Nobody is against the policy of industrialization. What people criticised is the sequence of implementation of the measures to achieve it. As at today, given the capacity of local assembling plants, if all Nigerians are forced to patronize locally assembled vehicles, demand will so much outstrip supply that the rise in price will be unjustifiable that it will fuel smuggling. The plant capacity cannot be materially increased at the snap of a finger.

Furniture importation has been on import prohibited lists for donkey years now. That means you must not import furniture into nigeria but what do we get? The various showrooms boldly display what is supposed to be prohibited. If any government agency gives you a contract to supply furniture and you supply Nigerian made, you will end up furnishing your house with it.

I agree with you totally. I mean, what is the essence of using private 'fronts' when the government will still come out to claim responsibility. Why not use presidential jet and our diplomats that have immunity to do it ab-initio.

In 1984, FG under buhari engineered the abduction of umaru dikko in the street of London in broad daylight using private Nigerians and Isrealis as well as Nigeria Airways plane. Even though Britain was sure of the FG's involvement, FG refused to admit and Britain could only jail the abductors.

www.nairaland.com/attachments/1688634_eddee_jpeg1f1ac8353b0dae96fa690440fb5bbfa0
Sheriff might be part of the Advance Team. When a president travels, most members of his delegation would have arrived at the destination earlier to do the ground work - meeting and working out the details with the host officials and give summary to their principals. You don't expect that a one hour meeting between the principals is where all issues are resolved.

By protocol, senior members of such delegation will be among the dignitaries to welcome their principal. If the host president is present, the visiting president will inturn introduce his own entourage to him.

Regarding the second picture taken in the Chadian president office, for sheriff to be presented to Chadian president at all, means he was already listed on protocol list. Such list is not prepared after a chance meeting at the airport. The Chadian presidential security must have given him prior clearance to be admitted into the state house premises in the first place not to talk of presidential presence.

The position he was sitting in seems to portray him as Deputy Head of the Delegation or a Special Envoy sort of.
