Will all of you idiots yapping against the guy just shut up. Why is it that we cannot find anything good to say about people who are willing to contribute their bit in the service of our fatherland. I bet a lot of you are crooks and that is why you cant find anyone decent enough to serve. If you have nothing good to say, go do something else - like go play soccer or watch tv or go carry ashawo. Get yourself occupied and leave this forum to more serious minded folks. Damn it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Speaks so much about you.

I think it is a very wise decision to accept the offer irrespective of his political inclination, those who are against his accepting it are not being fear to all of us. cause if all good men run away from responsibilities, then we'll have the bad guys to contend it. Ride on Mallam Nuhu Ribadu just make sure you have your integrity intact. I wish you all the best

the more you look,the more you confuse  

You publicly accused these people as theives during your campaign election and now you want to take an appointment from a theif, you are even using grammar to rationalise your idiocy. Did I hear someone say Ribadu is honourable, honourable with double-standard; honourable my foot!!! This guy has lost it. You want to go and dine with people you labelled criminals and sent 50% to jail

I love everything that has been happening so far. It is now crystal clear that those that have been calling for change have only been trying to gain power thru the backdoor. Now the change is happening and they are again calling for a change back to status quo. It is a disgrace. But am glad people like Ribadu are smart. He knows this administration is about to go down in history as a monumental success and he he has rightly accepted to play a key role in that process.

I told all of you that you will eat your words, didnt I? The problem with those who have been criticising in the last month is that now the government is doing some revolutionary stuff, they cant bear the shame that they have insulted the president all these while. I read Wole Soyinka's article and was impressed because, though i dont agree with all he said, he showed how you can criticize objectively with a genuine motive to move the nation forward, not engage in slander and blackmail like Bakare, El Rufai and Tam David West.

This move is like pouring acid on all d bad belle people against the GEJ administration who don't have a genuine reason for their bad belle. I dey laff ooo.

It's amusing hw people are quick to critisize. Experience has shown dat, the loudest & habitual critics are often nt ready to do anytin or ave no alternative solution to existing problems. Criticisim in it self is good 4 healthy development whn it is chaneled properly to b constructive, bt, where it bcomes negative or cynic or mixed with skeptism, then, it bcomes destructive. Nigerians supposely voted for gej to control the affairs of the nation. Gej now needs the service of a trusted & tested opposition c

Him Don accept am or Not? Oyinbo too plentie sef. Mufu

Ribadu don throway his broom inside
lagoon,bye bye ACN,wellcome to fresh air  i tink it's tym d action congress of nigeria  2 give him a serrious warnin  i pray  Ribadu will nt be among d cabalious  thiefooooooo Baba wagbacontrol

I call PDP thief now am working for PDP(A thief). How honorable am I?

Malborough this question is for you.

Pressman: Oga Riba, what happened to your broom?

Riba: The broom couldn't collet enoff money so i decided to try Vaccum Cleaner, is anything wrong with that.

Preesman: Not really but you told us that the vaccum cleaner is/was infected with a virus called Corruption coupled with thieves that you can sweep them away soon(b4 election). Now the vaccum cleaner has sucked you in.

Riba: (Angry Face) (wat a fuk) in hausa lingo, Look my friend if u can't beat them you join them. This is Nigeria and man must wak. Thank you.

going through the terms of reference of this task force,i only wonder what is the difference between it and the nigerian extractive industry transperency initiative (NEITI)set up  sometime in 2004,if this org were alive to its responsibilities,there wont be any need for this duplication of functions and the resultant waste in public fund

This is a very wise and smart decision by Ribadu. Some Nigerians could be very unreasonable, must we abandon our country for a corrupt administration because we dont want to work with them and change things. There are so many ways we could work with opposition or our critical enemies and still achieve our goals, I so much believe Ribadu is not ignorant of that. He is a very very smart guy, I believe things will definitely take a new turn in weeks and months to come. Nigerians should be ready for the surprises ahead. RIBADU 2015.

May be Ribadu taught that is grammar will confuse us. I know you want to go and chop our money. Go.
PDP! Share the money.
Carry go.

it is a call to service. I applaud Ribadu. his statement is a response to impending rantings as obviously displayed here.

Arupu:

Na wa oh!dogo turenchi fr malam

Not all Malams are born equal

Lets call a spade, a spade. How do you expect the public to see someone working for a govt he vehemently criticised?

Now this is why i love GEJ. He keeps appointing people with proven integrity. I just hope Nuhu Ribadu has not Fu, c ked himself up by receiving this appointment.

My brother, that is how I see it. Lets not forget in a hurry how the likes of Dora and Abati joined thegovt and transformed overnight.

And come to think of it, was Ribadu not used by the Ota Baboon to witch hunt political foes during his tenure?

I hope they don't use and dump him again. Beyond newspaper bravado under OBJ most of the cases he started never saw the light of the day. Some of the corrupt governors he interrogated are now senators enjoying hyper-allowances. ACN used him to hide its double facade; they dumped him for GEJ on the voting day. He might, however, wish to prove that he actually is his own person by resigning at the slightest suggestion of interference from the govt. Lets keep our fingers crossed.

Ride on Ribadu! in spite of your (mis)adventure in politics, i still have faith in you.

[size=16pt]Ribadu . . . Welcome aboard [/size] [size=16pt]The train is on a fast lane to smite all cynics to their death[/size]

The crust of this matter for me is not whether Ribadu agreed to serve or not but the terms of reference of the task force. The govt is only trying to rake in more money from the oil sector. The task force is only going to ensure that oil companies drop all they are supposed to pay to govt covers, so what happens to how govt has been spending and will spend? How many times have we worried ourself by how much the govt loose due to their inefficiencies? If Ribadu performs so well in this new role, he will at best be raking in more money for the govt and they will still ship the money into foreign accounts like they have been doing and he can as well kiss his political ambition goodbye.

Funny nigerian politics. I am not surprised Ribadu accepted the offer. We shall see.

Ribadu rugba! rugba!!

It's simple. Ribadu is an opportunist and not a Politician. This is a national calling but being a politician, I don't expect him to accept such offer from an opposition. It's left to him and I can promise he would be frustrated like he was with EFCC. You can hunt corrupt politician but can't prosecute. So, what's the deal?

Hahahahahaha, de same with el rufai. Give him a job in government and he will tag it Nations Call. I no blame them after all Government Money is sweet

Nuhu! Nuhu!! Nuhu!!! how many times I call your name the dog that will lost will not hear the whistle of the owner

Just say 'yes' or 'no'. Why d long story. Pretenders. My belle want burst. Hahahahahahahahha

I love GEJ for this singular appointment. I personally have never seen Ribadu as someone whose hands are not soiled. If Ribadu himself is not corrupt, let him proof himself here. This is one of the best appointment I have ever seen or heard of. And I think GEJ has done this to proof wrong, his critics.

No wonder he was silent all tru d subsidy removal wahala! I'm disapointed sha,

Ribadu has long been informed about this appointment.
He did not say yes today. He is only making his acceptance speach.

Mummy's boy just got a new job. Why shouldn't he be Happy. Mark my words, he will soon throw a giant party.

What nigerians continually fail to understand is that every aspiring political office holder in nigeria is doing so solely because of what he tends to financially benefit. They are taking advantage of the masses's gullibility of not embracing their rights to revolt and recall underperforming politicians.

Mallam Ribadu has just actualized his dreams so why are you all moaning?

Until our legislators begin to earn $6000 per month(emoluments and allowances inclusive),live in 3-bedroom flats in a middle-class neighbourhood and not in an imposing massion in affluent suburbs, drive a skoda,rover,renault or chevy impala only then can we have trustworthy individuals whom are genuinely willing to serve.,
