this would either make him or mar him. eitherways, bet it, he wont come out clean

I do not understand Nigerians, If he says no, some people will say he is not patriotic and if he says yes, he is AGIP.

I don't get it.

It's a call to Serve the Nation, and if y'all have a problem with it, Go fly a Kite,

I've come to conclude that the best some people will be is just a statistic on Nairaland's counter.

I rest my case.

Ribadu's comments on the last Saturday's gov election in Adamawa would actually tell you the man was already romancing with the enemies of Nigerian masses.

I saw something coming and here we .

who gives a fu0rk about this southwesterners and their all criminal Yoruba, acn party? two face bunch of people. haba ku ba mu hanya sabo da allah!

Rubish talk

Oleeeee, we know their type

Why all the grammar? Just say you have "come to chop", Nigerian politician style-- AGIP (Any Govt In Power) syndrome.

Since when did it become wrong for a man to want to serve his country? Rather than interprete a man's action from your own parochial perspectives better measure the man's performance against his promises at a set later date.
Is that too much for you to do?
And we wonder why se are RULED by non-entities at federal, state and local levels. Do a people not get the leaders they deserve?

When I see posts like the one above I am reminded of the George Eliot's words:

"Blessed is the man, who having nothing to say, abstains from giving wordy evidence of the fact."

Ribadu from Oga to boy boy

He is right in accepting. This would be one of his greatest contribution to our nation.

Thank you Ribadu

nice one ribadu. you have my respect, at the end of the day, it is the community that matters.

Ribadu don put pepper for haters eyes. See as dem dey whine for here.

He is right in accepting. This would be one of his greatest contribution to our nation.

Thank you Ribadu

old wine in new wine skin! Naija youths are really wasting, Must they rotate all the positions among themselves-the old caccus? Same guy that was hunted years back, confused and corrupt nation:

Shebo na de same Ribadu of Obasanjo's EFCC, hhmmmm. Let's wait and watch. Put not ur trust into Nigerian politicians cause they are after their own stomach. Watch it happen like a movie

Do your job & know when to quit. If you get stained we'll all laugh in our different dialect. Mine's IJAW & I bet u don't wanna hear how it sounds.
Best of luck!

Seriously, nofin is gonna suprise me anymore in ds country, i mean, can someone jst tell me, wat do u make of a fmr presidential candidate of an opposition taking up a job under an administration he has relentlessly condemned overtym?, Ribadu no worry, go recoup your campaign money!

@ Mr Ribadu, do you really need those grammar to say i do?

I have and will remain a Ribaduan but what's with all he circuitous grammar? lol

To those of you condemning Ribadu, I will reply by saying

"The greatest punishment to a wise man who refuses to rule, is for him to suffer the misrule of idiots"

The man has taking the honourable path. Kudos to him

Congratulation Ribadu

Nuhu Ribadu, you must be absolutely stupid and foolish not to realise that a snare has been set for you. I'm sooo disappointed that after all said and done, the offer of a ridiculous position as chairman of a "waste of time" panel would be what a presidential candidate with pedigree would accept. you will be disgraced out of office after you have been used as a pawn on the PDP chess board. Just hope and pray that you would have any remnant of dignity when it happens. The writing has always been on the wall. Cant you see?

I have hopes for you in 2015. You will ruin your chances for that opportunity. Open your eyes and stop listening to these crazy PDP demons cajoling you into their dark and diabolical pit of political embarassment.
If you accept this offer, you have sold your soul.

If not Ribadu then who? He is young,smart and intelligent. We should atleast give him d opportunity 2 serve his father's land. Let him show us he can be trusted,afterall,he was a former presidential candidate. If he cant shut his critics up now,then I dont knw when he will be given d opportunity. To be the president of Nigeria is not an easy task,let him build his resume inclusive with this job from an opposing party that he has wat it takes 2 lead Nigeria. If he fails,then it is just one of those things from one out of 140,000,000 Nigerians that was entrusted with public trust but failed to deliver. His generation and history wil remember him as a hero or a corrupt-opportunist of this nation.
In my own opinion pls!

Nigerians always see bad in any thing. So because Nuhu is from the opposition he should not accept the offer? How will the change come if the political arena is left to evil ppl alone? Ribadu is right in accepting this offer and like he said its a national call an opportunity to serve his country, if he fails, then posterity will judge him. With this he's building his resume for higher task - The presidency.

If Ribadu can do the job and restore sanity, he is a Nigerian, why not. After all it will keep him before Nigerians every day. I think he needs that in his political ambition

diluminati:

[size=16pt]Shame on you Ribadu if you accept this from the Corrupt GEJ. Where is Gbawe when you need him?
[/size]
I expect you to reject this from GEJ, to send a strong message to his increasingly corrupt government. You see how Okonjo Iweala compromised herself? Well we all know that one is on her own dangerous mission from IMF. But you? Associating with GEJ is doom and failure. You wont see it now , if you havent been seeing it, but later you will see it and you will bite your tongue.

If you accept this, i'll know you are just another selfish baastard, because the common nigerian will never feel your impact, so you are just going there to collect your own share before it's too late.

has your god answered you , facking biatch and a freaking doom seeking slime

No need for all de grammar from Ribadu. He's free 2 make de selection of making himself available 2 serve in dis capacity buh my problem with his current decision, is dat he's been orchestrated 2 fail from de onset, though i wish he ll disappoint me n conquer.
My only advice for him is for him 2 watch his steps cos several traps dat re meant 2 act as impediments re already in place(s) 2 checkmate him. Asked me n i wud ve discouraged him from making dis acceptance.

Is just so easy and cheap to criticize every effort made to turn things around in Nigeria,but I sincerely believe that God will not send Angels to turn things around in Nigeria.Nuhu Ribadu is one of the best we have around and like every human being he has his faults but we could not take away the fact that He loves this nation and he has contributed most significantly to the fight against corruption in Nigeria.I think GEJ deserves some commendation for the courage he has displayed in appointing Ribadu for this job.
Let's pray for Nuhu Ribadu that God will give him the courage to be steadfast and bold in handling this very difficult and sensitive appointment

I think its a good development if gej can appoint Ribadu, but I will advice Ribadu to be wise enough in carring out dis assignment,he mite use it in two ways.is either to build is political ambition or to run is ambition. I guess Gej has genuine intention 4 dis country,we need people like him in d helm of affairs of dis country. I believe he willnt disappoint us.

Let him take up the appointment, and let's give him the benefit of doubt.
Let's also watch his subsequent words and actions, and see if there are any departures from his recent posturings.

No need to throw out the baby with the bath water. I support him taking up the job. Only then will we know his true character.
