A reasonable Nigerian will understand the fact that the more generator companies we have in Nigeria the more our power sector will remain jagajaga. Marapco, Jabaili brothers, Mikano to mention few were brought into the country by the cabal killing our power sector.
FYI, Once you dey area with steady power supply, immediately one filling station enter the area, forget the rest na suffer because they will bribe NEPA official to stop giving you steady light for dem to dey sell.
I stand with the senator.
I know people like that insane, senseless and myopic senator are abound in this jungle called Nigeria. If not, you would not stand with him in this purely anti-people bill. Come to think of it, how do you think one can survive in this already harsh country without the use of generator with black-out every where? Business-wise how? Living-wise how? Or is the government going to restore permanent electric energy the moment such draconian bill is passed into law? Why are some Nigerians and people like you are suffering this much from mental derailment of this magnitude? I weep for people like you!

babecode: Following development this morning in Ile Arugbo, I want to commend the women, men, old and young, who displayed their affection, love and staunch support for my late father and the family.
I appreciate the genuine support of the women and youths who stood firmly in the face of aggression and naked show of force. Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki.
Your action throughout the night gave full expression to my belief that what Ile Arugbo represents to all of us is etched in our hearts. It goes beyond the physical structure. I am happy that you were not intimidated as you stood your ground.
This day will go down as the day you reciprocated the love and affection my father and family have for you. You have displayed a gesture of goodwill and passionate love. We assure you that justice shall prevail in a not too distant future.
May God bless us all.
Life indeed is a pendulum! The incumbent must not be oblivious of its swinging too.
Revocation of Late Saraki’s Land: ‘Abdulrasaq Has Crossed the Line’
Former Senate President, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki has stated that Kwara State Governor, Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq has crossed the line of decency with his recent efforts to erase the legacies of his (Saraki’s) late father, Dr. Abubakar Olusola Saraki.
Saraki, in a statement he personally signed and released in Lagos today, stated that the war of attrition waged against the legacy of his father and everything that belongs to the late politician simply portrayed the Governor as a man who lacks the sense of history and set out only to fight the Saraki family but not to serve the interest of Kwarans.
“Yesterday night, the Kwara State Governor, Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq finally showed his true colour when he announced his decision to revoke the ownership of a property rightfully held by my late father, Dr. Olusola Abubakar Saraki on Plots 1, 3 and 5 Ilofa Road, GRA, Ilorin popularly known as Ile Arugbo, (Old People’s home) which since the Second Republic, has always been used to host the weekly gathering of a multitude of aged people in the society who are provided food, money and health services, as part of the social welfare programme sponsored by the late politician. The tradition has since been maintained.
“Before now, this same Governor had invited all the members of the State House of Assembly and directed them to commence the process of amending the law to change the name of the State University which the last administration renamed after my late father, Dr. Abubakar Olusola Saraki. He then followed up on this act of vengeance by initiating a bill to rename the University and expunge the name of the late Dr. Abubakar Olusola Saraki. Now, he has decided to also revoke the titles of the landed property which belongs to the late politician. May be, Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq thinks his will be the last administration in Kwara State but definitely, this is self delusion.
“The property had been rightfully allocated to my late father under the name of one of his companies, Asa Investment Limited, since the 1980s and contrary to the claim of the Governor, the land was properly allocated and a Right of Occupancy title issued on it. It should be noted that the excuse given by Abdulrazaq in his revocation order holds no water since it is clear that this is the height of his vengeance against my father, Dr. Abubakar Olusola Saraki and I.
“Till today, many Kwarans have been wondering what problem the Governor has with the late Oloye Abubakar Olusola Saraki or what the late politician did to offend him. It is surprising that of all vacant plots of land in strategic places across Ilorin township, the one that Abdulrahman found useful for his vengeful plan is the one owned by late Dr. Saraki. It is beyond comprehension why a Governor would set as his main agenda the objective of undermining and waging a war of attrition against a man who is no longer around.
“This action is clearly a manifestation of vengeance and it shows that this Governor is not out to serve any public purpose or pursue any development agenda. In his narrow-mindedness, he believes his victory at the polls is an empowerment, entitlement and enablement to settle scores, provoke and pursue inter-family rivalry. Those who voted for the party in power in Kwara State and Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq obviously did not vote for the man to enable him wage war against Dr. Olusola Saraki and his legacies. They expected development and fulfillment of promises.
“If the Governor believes people are not taking stock of his misguided and deceptive actions and that because he is in power, he could do whatever he likes, he must be a joker. Also, this war against the Sarakis will not successfully veil his unpreparedness for governance and divert people’s attention from the glaring lack of visionary, clear-cut plan to deliver on his empty promises to the people. He definitely cannot get away with all the atrocities he has been committing.
“Since the outcome of the elections in March, despite the fact that there are clear grounds to challenge the results in court, I have decided to demonstrate maturity, statemanship and sportsmanship. I have chosen not to make comment on the policies, programmes and actions of the administration in Kwara State or that of its head. Also, I deliberately stayed away from the State to avoid creating any distraction for the administration. My decision is borne out of a genuine restraint to enable the administration settle down and fulfill its numerous promises to the people of our state.
“However, seven months down the line, Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq has shown that its cardinal Programme is to wage war against my late father and I. He has demonstrated that his only competence and astuteness is in the area of viciously assailing the late Oloye Saraki and I. Definitely, he is a man with no sense of history. Enough is enough. Now, he has crossed the line.
“Perhaps, I should let it be known that if Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq thinks he is taking all these actions to get at me, he is only deceiving himself. There is no basis for competition between us. Our paths cannot cross because the status that he is struggling to attain, Almighty Allah has given it to me many years before now. I became Governor 16 years before him and served out my constitutional limit of eight years. Within the period, I was Chairman of Nigerian Governors Forum. I have moved on to serve in the federal legislature and by the grace of God, I headed the National Assembly as the number three man in the country. No matter, how well he tried to rewrite history, it is on record that I left Kwara State a lot better than I met it. In fact, the University that he is struggling to rename was established by my administration as just one out of many legacies we left behind. This Governor needs a lot more efforts, years, Intelligence and resources to attain the level Allah has taken me, not to talk of my late father, Dr. Olusola Abubakar Saraki, the Senate Leader in the Second Republic. As Governor, I used the position to serve the people and during the period I did not dishonour his own father or anybody’s father for that matter.
“Just as I did after the election, my advise to Gov. Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq that he should devote his time and energy to providing good governance and genuine development of the state.
“It is well known to the Governor that I fear nobody, except Almighty Allah, the ultimate owner of all powers. With all his subterranean and open moves against my family, person and property, I remain unmoved. However, his open antagonism against my late father and his legacies is unwarranted and will not be tolerated. He has definitely gone beyond bounds as he cannot be allowed to ride roughshod on the deceased. In this war against my late father, he will not win.
“This Governor has shown that he is not a man who wants peace, co-operation and development. He believes that a constant attack on my family and I is all that he needs to win the hearts of Kwara people. The need to provide good governance is secondary to him.
“However, it should be made clear to Abdulrazaq and his administration that their attack on my late father cannot erase the legacies of Oloye. No evil design, negative plot or propaganda can successfully rewrite the history of Kwara State. This plot against my late father will not stand. And I will like to make it clear that we will contest this petty, malicious, dubious and bias action of a parochial, vicious and vindictive administration through all legal means. We are sure this is not an action taken in public interest. Rather, it is done in pursuit of a selfish and devious objective”, Saraki stated.
Signed
Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, CON
Former President of the Senate
Many at times I do wonder what type of country is this and the types of her inhabitants. We all know that in this country, all politicians are political business tycoons and as such are all the same thing. It is just like an old wine in the new bottle. So, what Mr Governor is doing now to me is clear avengement or revenge which is politically motivated. He should remember that his days are numbered in office and thread softly because whatever he does now to anybody in name of political enmity shall also be done to him even in hundred folds. We as citizens or supporters should note that there are no permanent foes in Nigerian politics, so we should be cautious of our actions for they may be best of friends in the nearest future. I rest my case
Perfecttouchade: now see where greed lead these ones to, be contented with what you have, u can't get that luxurious life through crimes. These ones will be drilled for their stupidity and lack of being satisfied with the little they had.
No! Luxurious life can be gotten through crime and criminality but one does not need to ply that route because it is deadly and does not have a glorious end. 80% of those living in luxury in Nigeria of these days are criminals

Sometimes I wonder and ask myself why was the human race brought to emergence in the first place? What is the meaning and radical reasons for this ephemeral existence called life? We live today and tomorrow we die. What a meaningless life!
aishauju: Ladies and guys in the house, does anyone of you have such experiences?
Forgiving a cheating partner is like expecting a leopard to change its skin which absolutely cannot happen. Cheating in relationship is cruel, callous, bad and killing both physically and emotionally. It is trust already lost. When there is no trust in a relationship, there can't be love because both are like Siamese twins. So, the best approach in this regard is to allow a cheating partner leave in the best interest of peace of mind which is a medicine to longevity.

After the viral report of famous nollywood actress Toyin Abraham engaged to actor Kolawole, Nigerians storm Toyin Abraham ex husband Adeniyi Johnson page to bash him over his recent Ex wife engagement. Though a nollywood actress Seyi Edun is also engaged to the actor.
Some people are senseless and irrational in thinking and writing. The problems in their lives are more mountainous than the perceived problems in the lives of those people they are nosing into. Anyone can marry and divorce whenever he or she feels or thinks it is necessary. You don't meddle into someone else's marital affairs because issues between husband and wife have in depths that no outsider can understand. So, why must you condemn either of the sides for whatever happens? Ki onigba so igba e ooo
Ogagist3: Victor Ogunyinka The Federal High Court in Abuja High has granted the Department State Service, DSS, permission to detain publisher of Sahara Reporters, Omoyele Sowore, for 45 days.
Sowore The DSS had filed a motion to the court to detain the convener of the proposed #RevolutionNow protest for 90 days, but the court only granted 45 days.
Recall that Sowore was whisked away by members of the DSS at his resident over the weekend for what it termed ‘treasonable’ statement, for describing the proposed protest as a revolution.
Mixed reactions have trailed his arrest and that of several other demonstrators.
Citizenshelm: A Federal High Court in Lagos has directed the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to detain the former chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof. Maurice Iwu.
Iwu was arraigned on Thursday on a four-count charge of concealment, fraud and money laundering of N1.2 billion, Igbere TV reports.
The former INEC chair denied the charges.
Justice Chuka Obiozor ruled that Iwu be remanded in EFCC custody till Friday when his application for bail will be heard.
EFCC alleged that Professor Iwu aided the concealment of the sum of N1, 203,000,000 between December 2014 and March 2015.
The sum was said to be in the bank account of Bioresources Institute of Nigeria Limited and domiciled in the United Bank for Africa, UBA Plc.
Iwu is said to have been involved in the N23.29 billion poll bribery scandal allegedly shared by former petroleum minister, Diezani Allison-Madueke, to influence the outcome of the 2015 presidential elections.
The issue is that the judiciary is truly corrupt and the government in power understands that. That's why the government is taking advantage of that corruption to force them to dance in accordance with their music and whoever amongst them that proves to be stubborn would be checked and if found unclean, he or she would be dealt with just like this. So, if Iwu does not have any skeleton in his cupboard, let him prove his innocence.

hisexcellency34: Why is this crazy man from Kogi always turning serious events to child's play?
No! It's not turning serious event into a child's play, it is very vital they know it off hand and act in accordance with its tenets because it is the bedrock of their( political office holders) call to service. It's because of their nonchalant attitude towards values, oaths and vows imbedded in the stanzas of our National Anthem that's why they misbehave when they get to their political offices.

I honestly do not know why it is problematic for some Nigerians to speak the truth even when you are not under any duress whatsoever. How can somebody be still commending the government of the day in spite of mountainous problems facing the country due to their lack of meaningful vision. I think such people are either suffering from mental distortion or born destitute
