we are talking about $70 Billion here , how many Nigerian companies or individuals have it, they will always go to foreign coys

No Naija companies pls! Cos it might end up with the cabals. Same way Naija companies are not managing our foreign reserves!!

Don't do it! This money will disappear. GMB needs to access the situation in terms of costs, benefits and return on investment. If this is going to be done, proceeeds must be put in escrow account to be managed by reputable intl firms.They CAN only touch the account if the project has been started and it must be fee-for-performance contract. No 20/50/70% upfront payment. 4 keys areas must be identified first.

Sani Bello, no doubt a rich man, but he DOESNT own 40% stake in MTN Nigeria. RSA MTN owns about 79% while Nigerian Shareholders have 18%.. Nigerian shareholders like Sani Bello, Victor Odili, Paschal Edozie, Folawiyo have 18%. Sani Bello is a benenificiary of oil block and is the Chairman of Danta & Sawoe

In between economy and politics chum..there is what is called "reality" which exist except if you are either ignorant of it (which of course it still does exist) or you may want to argue without a sense of justice.All these things you put down are facts disputed and ofcourse ineffective to some extent,in terms of practicability.The question is what is good about Anambra that is better than kano in contemporary time nigeria? Go and ask for the meaning of the slogan " kano ko da mai kazo an fika" then lets relate on an even ground,then from der u will know who will be poorer and who would be richer.

Kano is at par with populatuon and economc potentials, but Lagos is light years ahead, so needless to do any comparison. Let's stick to Anambra. In 2014, 65% of students that sat for WAEC got 5 credits -including English and Math- that's about 34k students- this is a state with 4m folks while Kano with 10m folks, only 18k students got 5 credits including English and Math. It means tha Anamabra is sending more young folks to school than Kano. Mind you Kano spends 3 times more than Anambra. There are 10m kids in Naija not going to school- Kano accounts for a greater % of these kids. Kano sends more kids to Almajiri than it sends them to school! The implication is that these kids are likely to be Boko Haram recruits than someone who finished high school or university.. It's disngenious for educated folks like you to dismiss the economic and social conditions these kids. Aisha Buhari was talking about prostitution in SS but ignored child illiteracy and child marriage in the north. It's time we told ourselves the truth that bigger population doesn't translate to bigger economy!

Truckpusher:
Let him start another round of madness and we will show him what real madness looks like.


No PDP member in Rivers State will lose sleep over the actions of that dying traitor.

Rivers State is PDP's birthright and we will Kill,burn,and maim to keep it that way
For those of you that wants to doubt , try your luck and what happened during the Governorship election will look like some kind of choir practice.
Nonsense.

Stop calling for violence because politrickians are not going to die for u the way you would die for them!

Amechi still wants to rock the boat. Why can't he accept defeat like GEJ and move on? BTW, there is still this thing called " COURT" where you can go and challenge the results..

Mutuwa:
It is evident that the poor population brought out some millions in the three state aforementioned.They will keep having babies and winning by MERIT and not by ruse.as the kano st gov adumbrated,democracy is a game of numbers.Indigents are everywhere in the country chump..look and do justice to your reasoning process and don't conclude just coz one side is poor.

Economy is more of game of numbers than politics in Naija.. When politickricians go to share their "kill" or " national cake, numbers don't count! But Almajiri is still faced with the economy of daily human needs. In 2014, Kano, with 10m folks budgeted about N230bn, Lagos with similar population budgeted N500bn while Anambra with 4m folks budgeted about N150bn. So Anambra had N37,500 to spend on each person while Kano had N23,000 to spend on each person. So it means that for every N100 Kano spends on each citizen,Anambra is spending N163 on each citizen. So who is going to be poorer or richer?

MichaelSokoto:
I jez hope most of d Ndigbos supportin GEJ all along hopin to take over power can finally see d deceitfulness of d PDP.
PDP iz shoppin 4 hausa-fulani in 2019?
I laff

Would APC have made an Igbo president in the 8yrs if it had gotten massive Igbo vote? NOPE. Cos Buhari will be there for at least 4 years, they Osibanjo might take over and stay for 8 years. So Igbos were promised presidency when they voted OBJ and Yar'dua?

Naija Journalism Why not educate their audience what would be the reason for those amendments. What were the amendments for?

Mutuwa:
No be lie mr gov.she was indeed stupiddd and irremarkable for wisdom.she thinks having 4 wives and lotsa children is unfortunate.?let her count the no of votes in kano,katsina and kaduna.

After all elections, almajiri will go back to his street begging and waiting for govt handout or BH application, the man with one wife has a greater chance of training and sending his kids to school and lifting them from working class to upper class. Wake me up when that Almajiri becomes Sanusi unlike Soludo whose dad didn't even know LG HQ. The rich are getting richer while poor are having more babies thinking that strength is number. Italy with 60m population is richer than India with over 1bn population in norminal gdp

Our money

In Lagos, YES! In Naija, not really cos candidate is Osibanjo who's the VP-elect= 2nd in command.
Meanwhile, it took him 16yrs to get to a vp slot. I respect his tenacity of purpose for being in opposition for 16 yrs. he had thingd the wrong for over 15 yrs. moral of his success: no success overnight!

udokpuenyi:
They come up with all sorts of lies and propaganda against their own son just because he has Igbos support. The same type of lies they come up to cover their innate hatred for Igbos on this forum. This year' selection was an eye opener

And if you are going to drown or kill Igbos for voting for your son, what are u going to do to your son who was courting Igbos votes? Shouldn't you kill your son? So you spare your son and kill his supporters?? This is pure hatred hiding under the cloak of partisan politics.

And most importantly, what started this whole hateful campaign was that Most Igbos wanted to vote for another YORUBA candidate. Just think about it for a second, how could you call somebody a TRIBALIST for voting one of your own??. Igbos didn't vote for any Igbo candidate! If likes of Oba and this surgeon tow this line of hate, then Naija is irredeemably doomed!

koma1:
Northernance voted massively for OBJ in 1999 & 2003

Comprehension is ur problem. They voted OBJ because of a fellow northerner, Atiku.. Show me when they voted en masse for a presidential/vp candidate who is not from their region.

What bitterness or apathy? Igbos massively voted for Shagari after the civil war? Ojukwu lost in Anambra state while Shagari won! Igbos supported and voted for MKO. Igbos voted for OBJ and Yar'dua. Igbos didn't vote for GMB when he had Chuba Okadigbo as his running mate, they rejected GMB when he selected Edwin Umezoke as his running mate. Igbo have voted for Hausa/Yoruba men in national election . It's time for them to return the favor or at least STOP calling Igbos tribalists. When is an Hausa man going to vote for a president/vp without bothering if he's a Muslim or northerner?

Augustbreak:
only God knows the real cause. Afican religion is real.wether we chose to believe or not.What were our forefathers practicing before all the foreign religions came in?

Warped reasoning

Most govt hospitals in Naija are like this.

MTN Nigeria feeds and helps more Nigerians than South Africans

Blame game continues. OBJ blamed past govts which he was part of. Yar'dua did, which he was part of. GEJ did it even though he was in govt for 16yrs. GMB is gonna do it cos he has been part of govt for over 30yrs.. Naija is toast.

walexy30:
WHY WON'T THEY BE ATTACKED WHEN THE IGBOS REFUSED TO RESPECT THEIR HOST, DO THEY THINK THE SOUTH AFRICANS ARE AS GENTLE AND TOLERANT AS THE YORUBAS?

It's not OK to kill immigrants but it's OK to kill Igbo immigrants.. Hitler's type of reasoning

calcal:
Igbos caused the problem by claiming over 65% of the population and demanding ministering positions. moda foka are everywhere majority.

Same way immigrants caused the problem in RSA. The difference is that Igbos are not immigrants in Naija

dammygreit:
Since WHO says Pesticides/herbicides/insecticides is the cause of the mysterious disease, how would they help the community to curb the spread of the deadly disease? What pre-cautionary measures would they give?

Where are ur local, state and FG health officials??

What's the difference between what he said and what Oba of Lagos said? Zulu King gets $7m/yr from govt for his upkeep and is married to 6 wives? How much does Oba of Lagos get from LASG? Xenophobia/Tribalism/Racism is so rife in Naija. Make we face our front!'

Nigerians inventing and manufacturing stupidity since 0000BC

What's the difference between what she and what Oba of Lagos said?

Most Naija will blame evil spirits and cast and bind without much. Another scientist/doctor is trying to figure out what is the problem

Osakah24:
refused to go where?do you think if the man was really whom US was looking for they wont get him since 1998?

Talk what you know. There are some Americans in America with outstanding arrest warrant without knowing and cops are NOT seriously looking for them, but you could get pulled over for a minor traffic offense and warrant for arrest pops up once a cop does a background check. Not everyone is on FBI most wanted list. He has to go America to clear his name. Lanre Shittu Motors did it in the US.

cjrane:
The sad part is that even American citizens have been thrown into jail for up to 30 or 40 years for crimes which it was obvious to the prosecution that they did not commit. The prosecution is concerned with convicting people,even when it is obvious that they didn't do it. Worse still, this practice is worst when you are BLACK. So I wouldn't suggest he takes such "vacation" to prove his innocence. Nigeria and USA have extradition treaty. Therefore, they can easily present credible evidence and begin extradition from Nigeria.

Racism card dangling.. US hates him because he's black. #crymeariver

Osakah24:
Didnt you see where the kashamu publicly stated that he has never visited US,or do you think he will lie abt such?.innocent until proven guilty remember.

" I didn't do it" doesnt win cases in court, going to court with superior facts does. He has REFUSED to go!! You can't win a contest if you are not a contestant.

Raiders:
Tinubu dont have any drug case on him. most people confused tinubu with buruji Kashamu because obj said a leader in SW has a drug case in the US. OBJ was referring to buruji and not tinubu. Tinubu travel to the us regularly if tinubu was a drug baron he would have been arrested, convicted and deported from the US

Tinubu HAD a drug case in the Northern IL court in Chicago. He was tried and sentenced. He paid fines and agreed to forfeit his proceeds from drug biz.
