Buhari should go and rest,he has nothing to offer this country and for APC,I don't understand them. The interest of APC is to take over from PDP,wait is there agenda for transformation?They keep talking against PDP and think that ia the way to take over power.Nigerians are wise now.

This is all politics because APGA refused to join APC to fight PDP so Tinubu has decided to pick on the Ibos and so will other tribes start doing.Don't worry as in 1967 the yorubas are know for back stabbing.They will soon back stab the hausas as they rubbish Ribadu.Soon the Ibos will be the onces to run to.
Ibos,keep calm and watch how events unfold.

When people say ACN has done alot for Lagos State it troubles me. Lagos State holds 25% of the total depth of all the states in Nigeria, Lagos State has the highest internally generated revenue and Lagos State enjoys much federal government support. With all these, Lagos State has so much coming in. The question is, how much are they giving out? Lagosian deserve much more and ACN is not giving it. ACN is capitalising on the fact that they are giving Lagosians little and they feel no body is doing better than them so Lagosians should worship them.
To the next governor of Lagos, ACN is brought their own, let us wait for other parties to present their's and we will see which credentials is the best. Just because it is ACN does not mean it is the best for Lagos.

Those who call APC a progressive party,I wonder if they know the meaning of progressive.Let us look at the foundation of APC - ACN(Tinubu's baby,the party has done well but compared to the advantage they have over all other states,they have not done very well.Its only recently that the Niger Delta States started benefing from oil),CPC(Buhari's baby,a man who had the chances of changing things in the past but didn't now he is look for a chance.What impact has CPC made in the various states and in Nigeria as a whole-nothing),ANPP(very confused people,I don't know where they stand).
The only progressive party now still temines the PDP and I will still want us to give them a chance come 2015.I problems of Nigeria can not be solved in 20yrs. It is a progressive thing.APC will not do better if given twice the chance PDP has.
Besides,who are those in APC?are they not formal helpers and house boys of PDP who now want a bigger share!

Okupe is not far from the truth but PDP should also sit-up!

I am an Engineer so can speak for Engineers. In my own opinion, there is nothing wrong with our university training. You can say it should be reduced to 4years which is a good proposal. The only issue we have in Nigeria is practical training. All over the world, emphasis a laid on practical work in and after the university but in Nigeria,how many companies are willing to train you and how many young engineers are willing to learn?
There is little or no committment from government and even lesser committment from the student.This get rich quick thing is really affecting the younger generation.
When I graduted, I started with N20K but didn't care.My emphasis was on getting the experience.Now I have the experience even as a consultant and the salary is over 10x N20k. So please younger engineers,get committed.

We like to recycle old wines. So we don't have young men who can do the job better.

For me, there is rally no difference between the PDP and ACN but I prefer the PDP because they are not hypocrites. PDP will do something and you will know its them and the direction that they are going to. ACN on the other hand are bunch of hypocrites,they steal and loot and pretend to be saints. Tell me, the whole income generated by Lagos State, what is it been used for? All the double taxation and the double digit taxes, what are they been used for? Do you belief that most of the projects in Lagos State are funded from World Bank loans! ask your close friends working for the state and they will tell you.
There is need for a change in government no matter the party.

I flew with overland recently and the plane was really noisy. I was wondering which kind of airplane was this. I recovered from the noise after several days. Overland should please check there plans.

The company I once worked for started the construction of that house. If I can remember, its it but I'm not sure of the interior.

The northern governors think they're good politicians and can fool GEJ and his cabinet.We in the oil producing areas'll not accept to get 13% with a state that says it has solid minerals that the country's not benefiting from.Do they knw the gravity of inconvinence the oil producing areas are sufering from oil exploration and one mallam who breeds cows wants 13%!They shld be careful what they do at Abuja or the oil producing states'll off all wells.

Only for loving married couples

I hate it when in a relationship or marriage a party give a comand or an ultimatum.Is she or will she be the first to get married during NYSC?Every thing in life can be worked out.For the guy,I'll advise you to be very careful,any girl u've dated for a while then propose to shld be happy and jump on it but ur girl's not excited so u need to watch it!I knw people who've gotten married while in school and even gotten pregnant.So,watch ur girl.

First,marriage's a blessing that attracts God's favor.If you look at your present financial state and also the country at large,you might never get married.There're people who had no money in the bank and little to show but bodly stepped into marriage and things turned for the best.Also,people who had fat jobs(bank job) and stepped into marriage confortabily but now,things're not the way its suppose to be.I got into marriage when I was earning a little above N100k and when I had a good level of experience in my career.I didn't have much savings and my wife just finished her NYSC.I entered into marriage bodly and God has been faithful.Its all about God's favor!There're things you shld do b4 marriage: 1. Get a job or a good source of income(never depend or have hope on anyone even your family,wife and wife's family) 2. Get a place to stay even if its not too equiped 3. Try and get to a level in your career or business that's confortably so you can switch companies easily.Don't start a fresh career or business while in marriage,you might regret it 4. Learn to pray.

I've always said that the Nigeria situation is beyond economic theories.They say federal Uni're poorly funded that's why they can't deliver but look at a school where each student pay N500k and still can't deliver so what's the problem,ATTITUDE!If FG likes,let them pay each policeman,lecturer,civil servant etc,N1M each month they'll not deliver because of the wrong attitude.I'll advise any parent who has N500k per year to pay for school fees to add a little on it and send their children abroad or better still Ghana or S/Africa. Until we change our attitude,money will not help us.

When the niger deltans cry of marginalization,I weep!Nigerians invest heavily on where the oil comes from but b'cos of people like GEJ and Sylva that investment's a waste and then a group of boys spring up to call themselves militants.Niger Deltans,pls hold your people responsible for your future not Nigeria.

I've come to notice that most people of the older generation don't live by example.Its everywhere,we watch them on TV,in our offices etc.What'll make GEJ talk the way he did?He would've started by listing all his achievements as govt then compare it with Sylvia's then he'll realise what a stupid thing he said.

If care's not taken,the executives of bodies like NUPENG're part of those frustrating the efforts of government to provide alternative means of transportation.

Alot of people are taking advantage of the Nigerian situation to do and undo.Can u imagine hw a group of lorry drivers can hold the country by its balls.Our leaders are the cause of this rubbish develop our railway sector and our inland waterways they wouldn't.They're good at doing the first things last and the last things first.If they had done it,who's NUPENG!

Every where human beings converge,there'll alwaz be cabals.In schools,offices,government agencies etc.Some cabals go beyond there boundries to intimidate other cabals eg US and Nigeria.The truth is that,some must sell and anoda buy,someone must export and anoda import.Nigeria is majorly infleunced by external cabals that know we have great potentials.Imagin 150 million people liberated from importation of fuel,generator etc,imagin 150million people well educated and not wanting to go abroad to pay millions on fees.These foriegn cabals'll die!The problem with our local cabals is that they refuse to think.They don't knw that they'll be more powerful if our economy's stronger and can suppress other cabals but they refuse to grow.

Jonathan and Sambo are decieving themselves.Nigeria has the resources and potential to be among the best nations in the world but we've reckless and non-comitted leaders who just decieve their fathers,useless people!I travelled from Lagos to Imo and spent hours in traffic because of bad roads and our leaders pick microphones and come on tv to decieve themselves.

One day,one million that should be the name of his new film.NDLEA's disgrace to our nation the Fed Gov. Should make some officials of NDLEA pay for this.

@Desola,you're the biggest idiot in NL.If you call GEJ a bad leader remember that the SW massively voted him in so you SW people're part of the problem.In the history of Nigeria,you SW people're betrayers.You betrayed the Ibos in 1967 and the hausas in 2011.It was this betrayal mentality of the SW that also helped GEJ in.As for the Ibos,they've been wanting to go since 1967.

I hate it when GEJ makes such useless comments.A man who's the commander in chief of the country's telling people to pray then what's the hope of the trader in the country.GEJ must talk less and think more.He must realise that his words as a leader of a nation will haunt him in times to come and for now,will destroy him and his political party.He shld learn from Obama and co.

I do not support fuel subsidy removal at all.Instead,government shld raise money and repair our refineries.I believe that if they work with maximum capacity,fuel'll readily avaliable at low cost.

Do people in NL have problems with English?Do you knw what a charge is?The governors were only trying to pass a message to the Igbo people and some tribalist and politically sentimental people're talking rubbish.Truely,so many NLs have issues to deal with.

I stand to say that most people mis-interpret the purpose of the Biafra way.The way was meant to liberate the Igbo tribe and Eastern Nigeria.One man saw the mess Nigeria would become and made a move to liberate his people.Is Nigeria better than it was then?It was not because of any oil!Do the Igbos not have Oil and gas(Imo & Abia),enough to sustain and generate income for them.Do they not have coal and good agricultural land.Do the Igbos not have good business knowledge?Without missing words,if we had been liberated,we would've been far far better than we're now!So people shld stop talking about greed.

We as Nigerian youths shld learn how to encourage ourselves and do the right things.Little wonder there's high rate of kidnapping and corruption.If men like Orji Kalu and Adenuga even Otedola can make that list then why discourage Boko Haram.We're very informed to know that Orji Kalu recked Abia state there was no sign of real development in Abia state,Aba in particular during his time.We'll also know that Otedola is owing banks more than he worths,recking bank PHB in particular.We'll know that Adenuga's a channel of theft for politicians and others.Even Dangote was used by formal military dictators to get his wealth.How can only one man be the sole importer of a particular country,when Ibeto was competing with him he used the mechinery of government to stop Ibeto.Pls,as youths,let us encourage good people and shame evil people

I can't believe Nzeribe's talking against coruption.Anticoruption needs to start from Nzeribe,a man who pocketed his own local govt and gave it to his wife.A man who his local govt pays the salaries of his staff.A man who rigged election for PDP in broad daylight.The list goes on and he's talking about corruption.

This is the kind of news I want to hear.Any government that does things or create/impliment policies that affect the common man is a good government not speaking big english that the yam seller doesn't understand.

I believe that the truth be told.If you're removing subsidy saying that the government's spending much,let us look in details into what the government is really spending so the government can be advised.GEJ should ALWAYS aim at removing hardship from the people not creating it.Does he not realise the harsh economic implication in what he's saying?Let GEJ focus on giving us power and good roads while allowing technocrats to investigate this subsidy matter.By the way,why should the account of NNPC be private?are we not democratic?why're we operating under certain devilish military structures?yet we say we're democratic.
