[size=14pt]Nigerians are bound to complain. Lets face facts, 2bn means about 180mn monthly. Pls for Gods sake,how is that a crime?

Lets forget the fact that the squandered the nations money. But that is not the bone of contention.

As a sitting President, the security vote is over 500Million or 750million a month apart form other allowances and a Governor gets over 250mn, so y wont an ex-president be comfortable. 250mn a year is ridiculous. The increase is a welcome development.

This Ex-presidents deserve it.[/size]


award winning post on this matter!!

Firstly, the governments of these rulers was illegitimate. They were military dictators who seized government with violence. The only ex with a legit government is obasanjo and shagari.
Secondly, these ex's were criminal minded bastards who destroyed this country's dreams and hopes. They wasted our resources maximally and enriched themselves. -By Crude Oil

You are right esp on the first point, my guy. When dey were in power they executed anyone who tried to overthrow after their courts proclaimed such attempt as treason. so if it is treasonabl(illegal) to attempt to overthrow a sitting govt(whether successful or not), then it is an illegal govt dt is produced wen a bunch of military illiterates take over power esp Ironsi, Buhari who took over from elected govt. Pls tell Sonekan dt a Court declared his interim govt ILLEGAL, ditto for Abacha whose govt is doubl illegal,afterall they claimed he took over from Sonekan when the latter resigned.

PRAYER IS THE MASTER KEY. OUR GOD REIGNS AND HE WILL PUT THOSE HE WANTS IN POWER.

I agree with most of what you mentioned except the bolded part above.From my observation, Nigerians are the most prayerful people on earth (Christians,Moslems and Juju worshipers included).In Lagos, it's next to impossible for you to drive past a street without seeing at least one church or more (especially in the low and medium income earning zones).We are more "Christian" than the whites who introduced Christianity to us.Everyday, it's one revival,deliverance or holy ghost night.A typical Nigeria Christian can't talk about a serious issue without mentioned GOD at least once.We pray and pray and pray and nothing improves.Then we pray harder and harder like lunatics and still nothing happens.

Before you think i am atheist, i am not but i am a realist.These leaders know that religion is an archilles heel with Africans so whenever something goes bad, it's categorized as being the "will of God".Obasanjo came into power claiming to be born again from prison. . .well, we all know where all that "born againsm" led us.More suffering and oppression.Once again, i will insert a quote from Niccolo Machiavelli.He says :

Pray to God but row for shore.

What does this mean?We can pray all we want but we must do what must be done and leave the rest to God.Our situation in Nigeria is comparable to a young man who wants to be rich and yet he sleeps all day at home waiting for the day God will open the door to riches.Utterly pathetic!

aint nothing happenning to nigeria. . .a lot of u have too much time on your hands. . .
u listen to the white man too much,he puts ideas in your head and u come here to display ignorance

there is no-where politicians are not corrupt. . .the american congress popularity is 14%
the speaker of the american house is perhaps only 9% or so in popularity

yet americans dont speak ill of the country. . .
if u know of another system that will provide an ability for 150million ppl to participate in their countrys rule
u say so cause i havent found any alternative to democracy in nigeria

u can stay online and complain or join in trying to effect a change for nigeria. .

That is why, though it took me long to realize it, I would always fight with anybody that says Nigeria will change for the good.

My reason is that greediness, selfishness seems to have a permanent place in the hearts of the majority of Nigerians, and it is affecting their

mentality towards everything. Man, the trend is growing hour by hour.

Unless you change the state of heart of almost every Nigerian for the good, which is impossible, then Nigeria can change for the good. Period.

I suggest that the present set of aspirants starting from Guber candidates go for psychiatric test before giving any ticket. I wonder the kind of service this people rendered to this nation. indirectly they groomed mutallab with their draconian policies.

I am only happy for thing that their is only one Judge who does not fear man irrespective of position.
