It's the people who are feeding fat presently that are busing shouting unity unity. Unity yes. But the type of unity has to be redefined. And that's what restructuring is all about

Wanting the country to be restructured is not the same as wanting it to be divided. Get some education on this topic dude.

This is good news. Hopefully the report means the law makers in those states will be favourably disposed to a restructuring of the country.

With the SE, SS and SW likely to vote in favour of restructuring, we are gradually getting close. We need as many North central states as possible as the core north will most likely ( as usual) be against it.

US is an enemy of state according to sarrki

****


the federal government messed up big time, military invasion should be the last option. I wonder who is advising them.
calling them to a round table would have been better even though you are not going to do their bidding.

don't because of your hatred for the Igbos and close your eyes against evil. the system is not working hence the agitation, if nigeria favours everyone, who would want to leave? your answer is as good as mine.

the system is only working only in the media. I just wonder why our people are like this. if you say your mind, they will say it's because you hate Buhari. no I don't but the truth needs to be told

Do you know the same idiotic yanks who are talking invaded Libya, Iraq and Syria? Why didn't they do what they preach in those countries? And how come they haven't invited Russian and North Korea to a dialogue but are looking for the minutest opportunity to bomb those nations?

Hypocrites. USA need to tell us about Iraq, Syria and Libya. Bloody hypocrites who won't allow others manage their OWN affairs by THEMSELVES.

Bede2u:
the problem with saying Buhari is fighting corruption is that not a single corrupt person has been found guilty by court. Plus allegation abounds of his own appointees being involved in corruption without being investigated. What exactly would be pin-pointed as Buhari achievement in 2 and half years in office if he dies today. At least yaradua will be remembered for amnesty and bringing peace in ND

But can you honestly with all conscience say that those that the courts have vindicated are not corrupt? Be honest.

Problem is corruption is ingrained in the skins of the judges. It takes a miracle to get a conviction in Nigeria when the elites are involved.

And let's not forget some people returned monies which in itself is indictment.

Paperwhite:
And tell us what have been done with all the corruption and corrupt persons in the APC' s government? Absolutely nothing but using insecticides for others and deodorant for APC members as postulate by Shehu Sanni.Shouting corruption as if that is our only problem.

It is hypocrisy that make you lot happy when the government loses a corruption case due to corrupt judges and lawyers and then cry wolf when people don't get convicted.

I have come to the conclusion that some of you hate for Buhari is bigger than your desire for the wellness of everyone including your own very families.

It doesn't matter if Buhari doing badly affects your family, he just simply must do badly. Some sort of illness it must be.

Some people won't like this news simply because they hate Buhari they rather the whole country burns forgetting the fact that we all will be affected.

Orun yabo ki se oro enikan. Those who are Wishing the sky falls forget we all will be affected.

ProElite:
With all the Doctors(PhD) and Professors in Ekiti, they are being governed by a thug who does nothing but talk rubbish to impress the educated illiterates. Shame!!!

Don't be so judgemental, the elites in Ekiti are not buying into his nonsense. Unfortunately the uneducated are more than the educated hence he is the governor.

FAYOSE2019:
The Governor has already met severally with them.

This news is since the 15th. A lot has happened since then.

Why is the APC bringing up already swept dirt?

We still March forward. Nigeria has been greatly divided and only fayose can put shoes on ground to negotiate with the people.

only a very sick person thinks Fayose has a chance of ever becoming Nigeria's president. This is not Ekiti state where the people are so perverse to change and would rather get the normal N200 "gift" from the so called governor.

Even the majority of ibos ( where he ironically gets his support from) won't vote for him come 2019. And I am sure even he knows this and he is merely using the presidential nonsense to force APC's hand to arrest ( as he is breaking a law as it stands) him then cry wolf. He knows EFCC will be on his case come 2018 when his tenure ends hence trying to use this presidential nonsense to win self-pity.

You can't fool all of us.

President of which country? Someone who doesn't get invited to family meetings within his own family wants to win a presidential election? Funny joneser.

He himself knows he has no chance just up to some mischief so as to cry wolf when efcc starts on his case after his tenure in 2018. Nothing more.

sarrki:
A true patriot you are Mr president

God bless Muhammadu Buhari

Enemies of the state will restructure this against him

I am pro buhari and APC but to be honest with you, I won't take anything serious until they have actually done it. Elections are around the corner and they are likely going to be saying all the right things in order to win some cheap votes then turn away once in power.

We need restructuring and asap.

The north is opposed to it and considering their numbers in the two houses, we have little chance of getting this noble idea through.

The north sadly have not been welcoming to change. They never wanted us to gain independence from the British as well.

BLINGZ88:
not to get political but I did see a poster where they said is that $1 to #208 naira is not ok.

hindsight is a good and bad thing. Did they envisage price of oil being near zero? Not that oil at the time was circa $80.

Now it is less than $60 and was about $41 at a time. What did gej do with the accrual when it was over $100?

BLINGZ88:
its not like cbn is dashing the money to banks, they sell it to them to reduce demand. it is not a good solution and I believe that the naira should be allowed to float. this government should forget their promise of #1 to $1 and try to act positively for the economy.

APC never promised parity with the dollar. If you think they did, provide a link pointing to that. It is the handiwork of mischief makers.

Dreamword24:
Why exactly are they defending the naira? The should leave the market force to determine it.

until we become an export based economy, defending the naira will continue to make sense. Especially as so many unpatriotic bastards who are hellbent on enriching themselves at the disadvantage of the populace abound.

This is very good news for people like me who are heavy twitter users and don't have their intelligence tied to twitter.

Twitter makes one creative truly but if you are intelligent, you are intelligent, with or without twitter.

May his soul rest in perfect peace.

It is a Nigeria factor. In fact an Africa factor. We are losing our identity to the western world.

Match fixing galore.

lawaldoski:
Thanks Bro/Sis. regarding the criticism, it is expected, i live with the believe that everyone has the right to his or her opinion. so they just gave what they think is best. And for the advice you gave thanks so much, guess that is probably the best line of action now, and i pray she is in the best psychological form to carry out the task. The part of reaching NGO's, do you know how to reach any that could be of help. Thanks in Anticipation.

I have no idea really but I am sure other nairalanders can help.

Nukualofa:
FG is making a mockery of itself in the International community. Those countries will laugh off the FG because they will see through their propaganda and prettiness

Why in a haste? Wait till then. And until then, your post is just a petty assumption.

erico2k2:
Cos it's a Northern problem
Happy with my answer ?

The kind of people you meet on NL smh

I guess then GEJ was/is a northerner too?

Florblu:
[s]Let her break his head whenever he make such attempt.
Trust me he won't die and he won't try that again[/s].

Let's be careful the sort of advise we give. You know the implication of she killing someone with no proof of she being molested don't you?

She will achieve nothing with this. Seriously.

lawaldoski:
Thank you all so much, and i can see most people are saying she should go back to her mother, i thought of it too. But the fear is if she goes back to her mother will the Aunt continue to pay her school bills. Couple with the fact that she is just seeking admission, so that is the very thing keeping her back.

She is 18 as you say. She can fend for herself. Once she stops having the fear of hopelessness she will find out that there are many ideas in her head that is not being used.

She should accept the fact that she has lost her father and her mother is probably helpless. It is a fact and once she accepts it and learn to live with it, ideas will flow. Trust me.

xendra:
useless men everywhere, the man is probably a nairalander, with all this bad advise they give each other

Useless men - including your father, brothers, boyfriend or husband? Why the hate?

This is serious yet very simple. First your girlfriend needs to stop seeing herself as an orphan. Yes she may be but she should ignore that FACT for a while. Only that way she won't fall into self pity and sort this problem.

Secondly, you as the boyfriend needs to be there for her at this time. I know you probably have been judging by this post but do not give up yet. You may not end up marrying but this is your chance to make a serious impact on her life for good.

Thirdly, the fact that her aunty still pays her school fees and other bills gives me hope. There is a good chance that the aunt still have some sense left in her. That can be taken advantage of. Your girlfriend should get a phone with voice recorder. Or any recording device. There are many cheap ones on jumia. Ideally a recording pen if you guys can afford it.

That will most likely nail the man. He wants sex, he is very unlikely to use his senses and that will work in your favour. Let the girl daily every day program the phone or pen or whatever to record. One day the man will fall for it. If it is a pain, she can easily put it on her wardrope or somewhere where it will not been seen but can easily perform it duty.

When the aunt's husband is finally caught, make sure you the boyfriend get a copy of the recording for keeps then tell the aunt. Using the recording to blackmail the mail could lead to something extremely bad - the man could even kill her as such a man can do and undo.

If after showing the aunt the record she behaves in an unexpected manner, which is possible then use the record to seek the help of NGOs who may even end up taking her away from that bad environment.

But note you both have to be at your thinking best and very calculative.

You did the right thing bro. If you are important to him ( you should if he is a real father and a real Christian) he will call you with time.

But don't see your father as evil for wanting you closer to GOD ( albeit in a wrong way) if I tell you what my father did, you be shocked. I don't talk to him like you have decided and I don't regret it.

I had this same problem but at the very early stages of my marriage, it will past with time and communication.

Arthurwinner:
wat if she walks out?

And so? There are so many girls out there.

Evaberry:
Men and their problems

abeg op why are you complaining

this is a normal thing na

MOST women have a penchant for doing this

Ask married men and women.

if they are going to the market and the total sum is 10,000 it's either they add 5k or 10k.

Although she threatening to break up with you is wrong.

tell her how you feel and If you can't, then break up with her and leave us alone.

You gals are becoming more and more annoying. Honestly.

She is a wife? She is a bloody girlfriend who I not even officially engaged. She is will destroy that guy completely if he marries her and the girl most certainly doesn't even love him.
