A top Ghanaian economist, Professor George Ayittey, has stated that decades of misrule and total government dysfunction have combined to transform Nigerians from resilient and dynamic people into vulnerable people. 3 Likes |

This man is a swallat! Who is battered and broken? He ha opportunity 2 say this during the military mis rule of so man years,he failed! This professor really needs medical attention andrope examination upstairs. Without sounding arrogant, Nigerians are the most intelligent,ingenious,sagacious,hardworking and democratic citizens in Africa. People who cannot be controlled or intimidated. IBB,Abacha and co can tell you this. No man has the monopoly of power in this dynamic nation because we have never allowed it. Do not allow this f.o.o.l to play with us. It's time to shut him up. 9 Likes |

[quote author=shymmex][/quote]It's obvious now that this Proffessor is on the fringes of senility. I weep more for Nigerians who cannot perceive that this is a carefully orchestrated attempt by the usual suspects who have vowed to ensure that they undermine the leadership and general integrity of our great Nation as a result of their inability to secure power thru the ballot |

This Sahara cloned Proffessor is at it again. This time rabble rousing and insulting Nigerians further. I heard this man was engaged by El rufai and Buhari to make this uninformed destructive criticism against Jonathan in another desperate attempt to rubbish the president ahead of 2015. This is totally unacceptable. Who told this fake Proffessor that our president did not declare his assets? Those who hired him to rubbish GEJ should have told him that the issue is not about declaration of assets but OPEN Declaration of assets. Even the leading opposition in the country,-ACN addressed a press conference today where they stated that the President should as a matter of principle, OPENLY declare his assets. The crux of the matter is OPEN declaration not declaration because everyone knows the President indeed declared his assets and it is presently in custody of CCB. Why is the man saying rubbish? 2 Likes |

Are you gonna die and be buried in Peckham, thinking stup!dly that you are white? God forbid that anyone close exhibits your behaviour. You are lost. It takes a fool to be told the obvious. |

What issues is he even raising? None. His criticism is just baseless and out of point. He was not even properly briefed by those who hired him. He is still advertising his ignorance by insisting that President GEJ did not declare his assets. Meanwhile, even SERAP civil society group has started legal steps to obtain the assets from CCB. it's been confirmed its with CCB. I don't know whether people read News at all? But I'm patiently waiting to see the mugu that will come here to argue that GEJ did not declare his assets 1 Like |
