Haha, lie lie. Pantami will be the next president of Nigeria inshaAllah.

He will be president in Islamic State of Syria and the Levante (ISIL) . Not Nigeria

The party will surely sack him from the government.
But at their comfortable time.

They will not sack him immediately, they will not allow their opponent to shout them down and remove him now.

I had similar ideology to his ideas at a point in life.

You said this about PMB and he is ur president now.

One one knew PMB had a sentiment for terrorism. And as it stands, we are discussing Pantami ; not the President.

The is the worst administration. No steam and will power to confront abnormality. In a saner clime, Pantani would have forgotten he was ever a minister in Nigeria.

From Pantani to Sheik Gumi. Buhari seems to be another passive supporter and promoter of insecurity. Wadume is yet to have his days in court since almost 2 years.

Unless Buhari and his handlers talk to his Medulla Oblongata, Buhari will overtake Abacha as the worst and the most useless/worthless president Nigeria ever had.

It would have been better had he not become the president. He was not useful to his regions and state in terms of the three cardinal agenda of this administration and his nepotistic attitude makes him detest people of other regions who could offer to help his administration.

From insecurity (banditry, kidnapping, insurgency, ritual killings, etc) to grounded economy to ruthless corruption, poverty and insensitivity to the plights of Nigerians. Insanity everywhere.

Yes he doesn't want the country restructured as if he's unconcerned.

Buhari is indeed the president of Fulani Republic of Nigeria.

Pantami was an ardent opponent of Yusuf in the public space. What's this twist about him being a terrorist.

He had views that were anti secular yes, but never encouraged the use of terrorism. In fact, that was one of his biggest issuee with boko haram leaders.. BH still threatens him to this day.

This is just a bit too much now. Buhari is the one with the right to sack or suspend him either way. Don't see that happening anytime soon.

Ammishaddai:
You can save the emotions for later, but right now, your terrorist minister has to save his job by convincing millions of Nigerians why he can be trusted after having ties with radical Islamic teachings.

We already trust and believe in him so he doesn't need people's trust. You can only talk for few days and get tired of talking

[/s] We trusted him, but now his trust is being questioned by his past links with Al-Qaeda and ISIL. And secondly, Buhari will bow to pressure and sack Mr Pantami. So get used to have one jihadist out of office

May be you are talking of Jubrin from Sudan but no the Buhari that I know. He will not dare to try to sack Pantami.

I am indeed glad that Baba is ignoring this foolish call.
When you are all tired you will look for the next tending thing to focus on since some of you don't even know when rain started beating you.

And if you look closely you will see that the foolish youths ones are the ones calling for this kind of nonsense.

Nice one... Pantami should do his job very well and judiciously..

you can't get away from yourself by moving from one place to another, stop denying who you true are

STATEMENT BY THE PRESIDENCY ON RECENT CAMPAIGN AGAINST THE MINISTER OF COMMUNICATIONS AND DIGITAL ECONOMY
Today, there is an unfortunate fashion in public discourse that makes leaders in politics, religion, and civil society liable in the present for every statement they have ever made in the past – no matter how long ago, and even after they have later rejected them.
This insidious phenomenon seeks to cancel the careers of others on the basis of a thing they have said, regardless of when they said it.
The Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Dr Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami is, currently, subject to a “cancel campaign” instigated by those who seek his removal. They do not really care what he may or may not have said some 20 years ago: that is merely the instrument they are using to attempt to “cancel” him. But they will profit should he be stopped from making decisions that improve the lives of everyday Nigerians.
The Minister has, rightly, apologized for what he said in the early 2000s. The views were absolutely unacceptable then, and would be equally unacceptable today, were he to repeat them. But he will not repeat them – for he has publicly and permanently condemned his earlier utterances as wrong.
In the 2000s, the Minister was a man in his twenties; next year he will be 50. Time has passed, and people and their opinions – often rightly – change.
But all discerning Nigerians know this manufactured dispute is nothing to do with the Minister’s prior words, but solely concern his actions in the present.
This Administration is committed to improving the lives of all Nigerians – and that includes ensuring they are not over-charged or under-protected for those services on which modern life depends.
The Minister has been leading the charge against illegal data deductions and pricing; he has revolutionized the government’s virtual public engagement to respond to COVID-19 and save taxpayers’ money; he has established ICT start-up centres to boost youth entrepreneurship and create jobs; he has changed policy to ensure locally produced ICT content is used by ministries, starting with his own; and he has deregistered some 9.2 million SIMs - ending the ability for criminals and terrorists to flagrantly use mobile networks undetected. In two short years, Minister Pantami has driven the contribution of the ICT sector to the GDP to more than 18 percent, making it one of the top two playing a critical role in the emergence of the economy from the COVID 19-induced recession.
In putting people first, the Minister and this administration have made enemies. There are those in the opposition who see success and want it halted by any means. And there is now well-reported information that alleges newspaper editors rebuffed an attempt to financially induce them to run a smear campaign against the minister by some ICT companies, many of which do indeed stand to lose financially through lower prices and greater consumer protections. The government is now investigating the veracity behind these claims of attempted inducement, and – should they be found to hold credence – police and judicial action must be expected.
The Administration stands behind Minister Pantami and all Nigerian citizens to ensure they receive fair treatment, fair prices, and fair protection in ICT services.
