With all the support given to Ebele?.......oma se o

Keep their heads ringing ding ding don.
Ding ding, ding ding, don.
People who did not support the last administration already knows that 419 contracts and Jona's government are like Siamese twins.
No wonder they keep fleeing in droves to other safe havens, Yoruba's are the winshcaraft behind this bad federal roads, make una hold them well well.

Whynotthetruth:
There are better ways to defend the Naira than buhari is doing now...which is a repeat of mess he did in 1984/85...

1)There's no finance minister/economic team to articulate fiscal policy to complement monetary policy...

2)He's not applying 2015 expenditure hence crippling some sectors but he's using revenue from 2015...

3)His policy is already killing SME's who drive our economy... aside foreign investments or investors from JP Morgan and co...

4)China just relegated us to the background... Do you understand the cost implication to Nigeria?

5)Buhari is doing nothing and seems overwhelmed with the job...His analogue brain can't solve digital problem... He could not back then in his prime...how about now?

6)Allow naira to find its level in money market though you guide it through the path... but don't physically control it as it is done now...because the negative effect seems more than positive effect...

Uncle Tom you are entitle to your grudges with GMB, but as long as naira does not go below 240, we are still on the right track.

Rawani:
The failure of the Jonathan government to exploit the roof shattering oil prices over the years they were in power and the irrational depletion of our foreign reserves are critical elements of our present economic woes. Your non-acknowledgment of these twin factors dents the objectivity and balance of your piece, which informed my initial pedestrian stance on this thread.

How will he defend his paymasters if he acknowledge the bolded.

Whynotthetruth:
You can drop your points without blackmailing me...

Back to topic; I did no comparison...I simply responded to some lies of APC against PDP and also showed how their assertion that what we are experiencing now is because of Jonathan/PDP is highly erroneous and false ...

PDP is a platform accommodating different personalities... but I think the worst of PDP are already out and they are members of APC or consultants to APC ...PDP as it is today, is far better than APC with regard to quality of individuals and sincere leadership...

Another liar exposed.

TRUTHTOPOWER:
Senator McCain Campaign came crashing in 2008 when he declared that the fundamentals of the American economy was strong. Wall Street collapsed before he had time to reflect on his press statement. When you hear the slogan 'it is the economy,stu.pid' as used by Clinton, it talks about soccer mums and Joe the plumber, how their families can get mortgage, health insurance, and purchasing power.

There must be connection between your statistics and the experience in the labour force (soccer mums and Joe the plumber)

Now hear this. NBS said 54% of Nigerian Youths were unemployed. (2012) According to the stats, it translates to 30 million. So the challenge before NOI and PDP was not rebasing GDP or bringing FDI. those are measures not results in policy articulation. the challenge was drastic reduction in employment rate. These implies doing something about inflation and lending rate for the sake of the challenge not as goals or ends of economic planning. Pls read Soludo on missing trillions. ignore the stealing aspect if you are not comfortable with that just concentrate on the relationship between measures and effect
vanguardngr.com/2015/02/ngozi-okonjo-iweala-missing-trillions-1-charles-soludo/
NOI et al promised 2 million jobs per year in order to address the deficit of 30 million. by 2019, 22 million would still be unemployed. When you add new entrants of 2million per year to it. The proposal of NOI did nothing!

So what is the point of YouWin SureP, FDI. Admittedly they benifited the individuals who got slices of the national cake just as political handouts benefit party footsoldiers.

My Faith: Discipline and fear of moral reproach! That is the starting point. GEJ govt by his own admission saw nothing wrong in Fiscal rascality. he abeted felony, to wit, embezzlement and extortion, hellooooo! others are guilty is not a defence!

The task before us is having kicked out indiscipline what can we do? That is in addition to the original plan of the new administration.

However if you believed your time is better served by romancing the corpse of a dead administration, it is your choice.

By the way, where do you think NOI is and what do you think she is doing? she is writing a book to tell the world that she is not responsible for the the documented crimes you are here claiming are nonexistent. Don't ask me how I know.

Odikwa serious.

Kastonkastroll:
passingshot, Nigeria didn't borrow up to that amount($473billion) to settle the wages and salaries of it workers. I guess you made a mistake there

Apart from my above observation, you are 100% right about everything you said, but unfortunately there are so many dummies(PDP goons) here who won't be able to grab what you said..


Kudos man

The message is not for everybody but a few whose brain has not been replaced with indomie.

hinwazaka:
In two years time, when the effects of JP Morgan's delisting and other economic mistakes made by this President come to bear on us, we will see who will come on this platform to defend the APC. The reason why we had constructive debates during the dispensation of GEJ, is because we had food on our table, we had jobs which we got through lobbying and influence, we had our roads been built, we had development going on right in front of our very eyes. But imagine, a situation when food prices skyrocket, when unemployment is at a peak, when infrastructural development is at a standstill, when mortality rate increases, when power supply surprisingly drops to an all time low, when businesses start to collapse, when misery, crime and poverty becomes the order of the day. When all this comes to bear on us, we will see who will beat his chest and call himself an APC supporter. I would advise, when this inevitability comes to pass, for massive manhunts for all APC supporters on this platform, so that they don't jump on the PDP train. If we get rid of them, they won't come up sometime in the future, to mislead us.

JP Morgan ko, JP Clack ni.

CHINA : Nigeria's biggest Trading
partner and Investor, Snubs Nigeria
over Buhari’s Behaviour and BODY LANGUAGE.



Nobody jokes with china bro. even the almighty America depends on china heavily for sustainability and are heavily indebted to china, talk more of you fvcking African (now underdeveloped)!



Like i always say, this country is on auto-reverse with full speed that can be compared to that of Airbus A380 all in the name of one Daura lord called SAY BARBER.



Watch the gullible avoid this thread like Ebola..

Of course they will ignore Nigeria ode no like now, China must bring their factories to manufacture their products in Nigeria this place is no longer their dumping ground.
Everywhere in China is a factory, their people are gainfully employed while our own people here are being rendered jobless everyday, any business relationship that will not favor Nigeria should be abandon abeg.

DIVINE78:
You can write anything you like about Tinubu but whatever you write doesn't make your life less miserable and Tinubu less influential.
Your whole life is hinged on a revolving venom to attack Tinubu who fortunately doesn't even know you exist.
Tinubu contributed immensely to the formation of APC.
Your wailing doesn't change the truth. Shame on you.

@Bolded, the most beautiful comment on the thread.

ISpiksDaTroof:
Why are Nigerians so violent?

Why isn't there an enforcement of the laws againt physical assault not committed in self-defense? Its 2015, Nigerians need to stop living like animals.

P.S: Why are obvious illiterates and clearly mentally ill individuals allowed anywhere within the capacities of law enforcement?

Those who make peaceful change impossible makes violent change inevitable.
All these senseless government agencies who are constituting themselves into public nuisance will eventually be thought how to do a proper job by the irate mob, kudos to the no nonsense mob at Ikeja.

nairamaniac:
he quit because he wasn't being Real. neither was it being "himself".
its so mentally,emotionally and physically demanding to sustain being what you are not or saying things that do not come from your innermost-heart.
Do you know the tonnes of effort barcanista puts into his threads?
The guy always has to crack His brain and evade any link/Google that would contradict him.
he's very intelligent. but honest by half.
he ran out of Gas on Nairaland.
perhaps he would refill on Facebook/twitter.



but wen its natural, it all comes out effortlessly. with this, why would you need to officially retire?

moral to the story: when you wail and wail wail. u end up loosing your voice.
When you(wailers) throw stones at someone(buhari), and he doesn't throw stones back at you(wailers).
You(wailers) run out of stones to throw.
All your stones that have been throw at us are in our possession. Only making us more equipped&stronger.
you wailers would have to change locations(randomly) e.g Nairaland to Facebook/twitter, in order to find more stones. with high hopes of finding weaker target and more gullible-followers.

Words on marble, they shall know the truth and it shall set them free.

This had better be the figment of the writer's imagination or else Akpabio don enter agbako bi that o .

Okay sorry about the blind argument, may be this will ease your mind.
http://answersafrica.com/largest-economies-africa.html.
Nigeria economy is still second to non in Africa,JP Morgan can not undo what God has already done for this country.

atlwireles:
This country has passed the stage of imperialist and exploitation arguments. Labour and capital are extremely cheap today, Nigeria will not be attracting neither. Maybe we should ask why? JPM provided outside investors a window into the Nigeria financial market, a mark of credibility, an emblem of trust. Fund managers look to it as barometer for sizing up a country. Nobody is exploiting us but ourselves. Nigeria is a loser for this move today, no going around it. Our loss is Ethiopia, South Africa and Kenya's gain.

@Bolded, this is a big lie, Nigeria is Africa's largest investors haven.
Let them go to blazes, JP Morgan my jack ass all that Nigeria needed is a transparent leadership, enabling environment, a highly focused citizenry and we'll be home and dry.
With all the JP Morgan listing, how many European economy have they revived, i would rather we look towards Asia while we encourage our people to go into JV with other foreign nationals.
We don hear say na China be baba now, say most American economic reports are doctored, JP Morgan ko, George Soros ni.
Shebi Racists have not been able to impose their useless IMF AND World bank inhuman economic policies on Nigeria, we are no longer in the 90s oju ti la eye don open.
Baba abeg downplay this nonsense don't pay attention to these racists, our hands have already made strong by the hands of the almighty, they can't stop this match to progress.
In the end, the Asians will be having the ball while the racist watch them play, the era of scramble and partition is loooooonng over, now it is first come first serve.

AAinEqGuinea:
My understanding is that the fear of Biafra entails Igbos having businesses in Nigeria, Nigerians having businesses in Biafraland. If Biafra were to materialize, all entrepreneurial efforts from each side would come crashing down, civil unrest ensues, and many will lose friends. It doesn't have to play out this way. Why can't a secession happen while leaving intact people's professional and personal livelihoods? It's almost as if Nigeria has to relive the horrors of 1967-1970 all over again and this scares people to support Biafra. This is why GEJ's peaceful handoff to GMB made international news because they expected Nigerians to react like 21st century animals. However, if you were to bring up the issue of Biafra

Biafrans will be the same people, on the same land, with same ethnic neighbors, where is the problem in this?

Then there's the issue of Nigeria's endemic instability. People like me in the international community want to have faith in Nigeria for Nigerians. But should we honestly blame anyone for wanting to disembark from what they perceived for years to be a sinking ship?

Why must the UN decide if a populace should be forced to live within some colonial mesh? I'm implying that Africans or Nigerians should not need the UN to tell them how to govern themselves. I think Nigerians have proven to be smart enough to handle these matters their way, and Nnamdi's playing chess.

I hope they remember what China did when the Barbarians left China?, watch with keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen interest.
Proudly omo Odua.

vayne:
That is not a major difference,they all have similarities ....same religion,same culture,etc.

And speak the same language?

fishbone11:
Firstly, I'm not Igbo OK fool!!!
Why are you pretending u ar not observing the current situation on ground? Is this de change u voted for? You wanted Jonathan out cos he's a Southerners and u've got de power u wanted, why spew nonsense from yr MAD COW DISEASE MOUTH. You were happy u got vice-president, or yr prayer is for Buhari to die and yr VP becomes de President... hahahahahaha, that can never happen in this country especially to a Yoruba cos u guys are so selfish, corny, full pride & inferiority complex. Swallow yr pills till 2019 for all i care. "ORUE" means mumu is ND

What is this? na by force to vote your candidate? we voted against Jona because the guy is incompetent.
Oh so you expect someone like me who is spending heavily on generators, fueling and servicing heavily, to go back and still vote Jona in "the spirit of southern Nigeria", well life is give and take Jona should have in the " spirit of southern Nigeria give me light " or is this too much to ask?.
You know what?, if given another opportunity, i will still vote against Jona 'cause i know i have not made a mistake, when last did waste money on my generators? even my generator engineers are divesting into wiring and all.
Anyone who is saying nonsense about those who voted for the change of government in this country is " AN ENEMY OF THE ORDINARY CITIZENS OF THIS COUNTRY ".
I know what is good for me and no one, i repeat no one will force nonsense down my throat in the name of one " UNITED SOUTHERN NIGERIA " there have never been a southern Nigeria, may be on paper but that's where it ends.
So make una pack well make i see front, if we are not in any way related why should i be under any obligation to favor you, even if we are related i must be convinced beyond reasonable doubt that you are capable, so pack well jor.

jumper524:
pls the north voted buhari, the south south and south east voted johnathan while the west chased away johnathan put that in ur skull old man

He knows, but why not allow this man to continue to wail.

Sincere9gerian:
With the formation of APC in 2013 came rampant cases of gas pipeline vandalism, which reached it's peak as the 2015 elections approached.
https://www.nairaland.com/1394288/why-someone-vandalize-gas-pipeline
https://www.nairaland.com/1579141/poor-power-supply-lagos-area
https://www.nairaland.com/1959085/power-generation-drops-1000mw-due

Here is what the former minister of power had to say about the menace of gas pipeline vandalism:

" Every two weeks, the gas pipelines are blown up. It takes two weeks to fix them only for them to be blown up again within 24 to 48 hours of fixing"

Immediately APC won the elections, gas pipeline vandalism stopped abruptly.

While gas pipeline vandalism has stopped, the usual crude oil pipeline vandalism has continued. It is well known fact that will vandals may derive immediate financial benefit from vandalism of crude oil pipeline, there is no such benefit when it comes to gas pipeline. Why then were those criminals hell bent on sabotaging our gas pipelines and the power sector?

From this history alone, it is obvious that APC was responsible for all the cases of gas pipeline vandalism we had in the last 2 years.

From the figment of your imagination or for real? even the Bible said it that we shall know the truth and it shall set us free.
Ask frog eyed Dezani, she will tell you what went down.

Another "correction"

Joy Emodi was sacked early 2014 and replaced with Alhaji Suleiman Ajadi from Kwara State (North West)
Remove Nos 25 and 25

25. Senior Special Assistant on National Assembly Matters (Senate): Senator Joy Ifeanyichukwu Emodi, [South-East].

26. Senior Special Assistant on National Assembly Matters (House of Representatives): Senator Joy Ifeanyichukwu Emodi, [South-East]

Your hatred for the north is profound may the good Lord save you.
Anyway @ bolded that is a Yoruba man from Kwara state which is in the North Central, even if he is from NW is he not a Nigerian?.

You think they are not aware of all these key positions and the people occupying them?
They are only angry about their loss of total grip on the national purse .
Awon ole, no mind them jare.

Ritchiee:
No,why would I fall for Okoro trick.We are smarter than they are and you know that, man.It is for want of word to properly categorise them in Lagos here.I would say they have a good ARRIVISTE.What is your solution to these craftspeople turned area boys if you don't support wholesome trading?Look at what I pray for...would he do it...? http://www.ngrguardiannews.com/2015/08/ambode-vows-to-take-lagos-youths-off-streets/

If you think the street boys are only the Yoruba's you are on a loooooong thing.
Even girls are also involved, the only thing that qualifies you to belong is that you are a daredevil who can speak their gutter language.
If you doubt me conduct your personal research and thank me later.

Ibadan?, Igbo's only live in Lagos WTF .

sukkot:
where are they going ? they already have their own land. makes sense if african americans who have no land say they want to be free and that america should give them their own state so that they can live amongst each other. now thats a genuine case for cry for freedom. you niggas have your own state so why are you crying for freedom ? you are already free. makes no sense

They shall know the truth and it shall set them free, how can people abandon their home for another man's land and still cry about oppression?.

E ma sunkun si koroba, una go weep full bucket, e ma ke ku ni.

fulanimafia:
You're not making any sense. Did you invest your hope/vote in PMB or not? Hypocrisy is condemning Ameachi and Tinubu in the morning and then pretending to defend their interest in the evening.

Wa gbayi.
