You can not judge a book by its cover. We all have 1 or 2 pictures that others do not like.

In this picture, Dr Balogun looks like a relaxed man that was having an interesting discussion at home.
What exactly do you people expect to see?

The man looks healthier than most of you and your fathers.

And why are you so surprised by Dele's s1lly comments? Everybody knows that Dele is currently jobless and has nothing better to do with his time.

Good point.You can not say it better than this, in fact, i found a good story in support of your point: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/france/11995913/Terrorists-are-defining-Islam.-We-Muslims-must-react.html

The good Muslim all around the world must step up, speak up and show us some actions to go after the terrorist groups and protect their religion. We can not continue this way

Tinubu is a confused man because president Buhari has systematically clipped his wings.
What is the use of a vulture that can not fly (a wingless bird)?
It is only a matter of time (when there is no more food to eat) before the rest of the vultures eat him for dinner.

I do not know anything that is worse than paying for your own coffin and burial...Tinubu spent his stolen money to sponsor a God sent leader...God is good, all the time.

Now that Diezani Alison Madueke has been officially captured, I challenge all Nigerians in London to come out, make sure that their voice is heard and show their uncompromising support to fight this war against corruption to the end. I would like to see at least 50,000 Nigerians to come out and surround the court building on the day DIEZANI ALISON MADUEKE is to be charged. I want to see signs, posters, and heavy protesting in the support of fair judgment! We must not rest, we must fight this war to the end. Let the other Nigerian thieves around the world know in advance what they will be facing one by one.

This is the only way to rescue our country from the hands of evil doers.

If they are not ready, they are preparing. Without any doubt, Nigerians will surely show up in numbers. Diezani's steal is in the Guinness book of records, Nigerians have no choice but to show up and fight for their country.

Is baba dyeing his hair?

I think so. He has no choice. It is a turn-off when you're jumping around the stage with grey hair everywhere.

Corrupt Nigerian government officials are mostly coward, it will not take much for these people to start singing like a bunch of uncaged parrots and blackmailing one another, in fact, they have already started. Therefore, if Buhari plays his card intelligently, he wouldn't need to do much to get a favorable outcome from this war against corruption.

I think Diezani Alison Madueke is ready to bring down the hammer...and many people have already started to panic.

No more glorifying thieves in Nigeria. These people have to pay for their sins; everyone of them must pay, no exception.
I support to constantly embarrass their families openly, let the children go back and ask their fathers: Daddy why did you steal from your country?

It is becoming clearer and clearer that Buhari needs Saraki to stick around. The senate president is the number 3 most powerful man in the country, I predict that if Saraki wins his case in court, he will be stronger than ever. And Tinubu and his boys may end up paying big when the time is right.

As we all know, our president is a selfless leader and not a politician. This may be good and also bad all at the same time.

We all also know that Nigerian leaders (past of present) from 1980 to 2015 are all corrupt (this is a fact). It doesn't matter how you look at it, they all stole from us, and I believe this is one of the reasons why Buhari is having a major challenge to pick his ministers (nobody is clean enough to join Buhari's team). So, as a result of this, Buhari may end up settling and picking a couple of thieves on this team.

This is where Saraki comes in. Buhari should use Saraki as a political tool to balance things across the board. Osinbajo is already a Tinubu's boy, Tunde Fowler is also another Tinubu's boy...It is not a new news that Saraki hates Tinubu with a passion, this is why it becomes very important for Buhari to keep Saraki around. Without any question, Saraki has the capabilities and power to keep Tinubu and his boy in check, by holding this group of people in his control.
If Saraki is chased out of town, this will only open the floor for Tinubu and his boys, which will result into systematically frustrating Buhari's administration and plans. At the end of the day, Tinubu and his boys will debase this administration by reintroducing business as usual/ wuru style...the same style we have used for over 30 years with nothing to show for it.

Nigerians do not want this to happen.
They are all thieves, but if you are going to keep any of these thieves, at least, keep a powerful one that will make things easier for you....Buhari must wise up asap and realize the importance of keeping Saraki around.

I am yet to confirm this news, so far, I have been getting half and half info. There is no solid confirmation that Femi Falana has been picked. But I am hoping this is true.

Is there anyone with the latest news regarding the selection of the AGF?

Instead of entertaining this little person called chukwudi, why not just ignore and let him entertain himself.
Not all sneakers can be polished.

President Buhari is finally realizing that war against corruption in Nigeria is a very unfriendly war that can not be fought alone. Apart from the support of average Nigerians, president Buhari also needs the support of high power super Nigerians, therefore, bringing bigwig rascal like Femi Falana on board is a super fantastic move. In fact, it is a priceless decision that will only empower the change president Buhari promised Nigerians during the presidential election.

If this news is true, I can only agree that the Nigeria of yesterday is dying rapidly, and the birth of the new beginning is in process.

Definitely a very good news!

I don't get it!

President Buhari is doing whatever it takes to fight war against corruption; what we have been asking for for years and what we need to move this country to the next level.
And we still have certain hopeless Nigerians that still see something wrong with this picture. Seriously?

Nigerians die unnecessarily each and every single day, just because of corruption and we still have bastard that come here to defend the enemies of our country.
May God punish not only you heartless people but also your future generations for not having a simple understanding that corruption has degraded and turned our country upside down.

Abubarka Abdulsalami should respect himself, stay home and allow president Buhari to go to work.
We elected president Buhari and not a paid actor, like Abubaka Abdulsalami.
If he does not quit visiting Aso Rock, Nigerians should set his house on fire...We've had enough!

It is only less than 3 months in power...this 72 years old leader has already accomplished what brainless Jonathan has not accomplished in 7 years later.
May Allah punish anyone that tries to bring us back to 4 months ago.

Buhari has already blocked corrupt leaders at all angles; we will recover most of our stolen money by corrupt leaders.

Isha Allah, Nigeria will be great again...let us give it 4 years. Nigerians will be respected again all across the world.

hinwazaka:
The way PMB is going, his tenure will likely end in tears, despair and pain. A leader who prides himself as more important than the institutions around him. A leader who has managed to make himself appear infallible to the people. A leader who wants to make his leadership answerable to no one. A leader who makes mistakes and refuses to accept blame. A leader who has riddled his government with irregularities and inconsistencies. A leader who has surrounded himself with autocratic and oligarchic elements. Such a leader can not survive for long in a conundrum unstable nation like ours. Just look at Muritala Mohammed and you will see the inevitable end

Please just hug a transformer, so that we can know how many of us left.

Agbaya!

Spybradd:
you are getting me wrong totally,gej wad equally denied access to weaponry by the same west hence his decision to head down south agrica....buhari can follow suit too,like you urself said in your own post,to the east,to south africa,to ...anywhere else like gej did and was unnecessary ridiculed for....we are virtually saying the same thing and if you got my drift,you should've known that i was indirectly pointing fingers at buhari who has suddenly found himself in that same spotlite and scene gej found himself...

Wrong, wrong and very wrong!
First, we should not compare a corrupt regime (Jonathan's admin) to this regime.

America only rejected to sell weapons to Jonathan because they knew Jonathan lacked the leadership to win the war against Boko Haram and they also knew that Jonathan was surrounded by bunch of thieves that did not give a d@mn about Nigerians or Boko Haram. Therefore Jonathan got what he deserved.

Secondly, America did dispatch military personnel not only to rescue the Chibok missing girls, but also to completely disable Boko Haram. But of course, America gave up when they realized how unfocused, insincere and confused Jonathan and his boys were. They also discovered that less than 5% of the financial assistance was being spent on fighting Boko Haram. The rest of the money was being shared among Jonathan's boys.
Why do you think Sultan Dasuki is currently in trouble?

In a nutshell, you don't expect America to assist an administration that constantly steals and benefits from the war against Boko Haram....

You can not blame America for pushing back...For over 30 years our leaders have proven themselves to be nothing but useless. This is the kind of treatment you get when you don't respect yourselves or the citizens of your country.
I think with time Obama will reach out to Buhari and let him have whatever assistance he needs to win this war.


But please do not bring up Jonathan's name anymore. It is time for Nigeria to move forward and away from pure failure.

Honestly, I totally understand Obasanjo's intentions, and I agree with him for picking Yaradua, but my big question is: WHY JONATHAN? A man that did not have any record of leading anything, a shoe-less local champion for that matter.

I do not think that Nigerians will ever forgive Obasanjo for this giant mistake.

zomby:
Why are you people listening to Dele Momodu (a lost soldier)?

Without any questions, Dele is part of what is wrong with this country.

Do you guys know how many @ss kissing untrue write up Dele Momodu has sold for big money in his life time?
He shouldn't be taken seriously, as he only pays attention to what he wants to eat. Don't ever forget that Dele Momodu is no Dele Giwa, Chinua Achebe or Wole Soyinka. Dele Momodu is a man that only goes after what he wants to eat...he cares about nothing but his little pocket.

Dele Momodu is a man that reminds me of a sinner that discovered Jesus after making so much money from doing what is wrong. A run away post master that has so much to deliver after his service is no longer needed...Please ask him to stay in Ghana and allow our president to focus on digging us out of the mess created by PDP (Dele Momodu's friends) for almost 20 horrible years in power.

Nigeria has been in a total mess for over 30 years. It will take time and a strong leader to get this country back on track. Therefore, anyone that attempts to judge Buhari's performance or strategy in less than a year in office is a complete blo0dy f00l....

It is that simple.

Buhari's delay in appointing his cabinet has gotten Jonathan's boys more confused.
Simmer down Nigerians, Buhari has his reasons for not rushing into appointing anyone.
We can not continue to do the same silly things and expect a different outcome. Our president will appoint his cabinet when the time is right.

Dele Momodu must have a personal benefit from knowing who is on the list. This dude only gets involved in things such as this when the price is right, he cares about nothing but his small pocket. He should continue focus on taking more pictures of Nigerian thieves (former and present government officials) to post for us to see on his Ovation magazine.
What a bloody fool!

All 4 Nigeria's refineries to begin operation next month.

Wow!!! All 4?
Unbelievable... What was the problem? How come PDP gangster didn't make this move for almost 20 year?

Well, no need to ask God to punish them all, God is already in Control; he knows who they are, what they have stolen and how to pin each and every one of them down.
Too many innocent Nigerians have unnecessarily lost their lives simply because of the selfishness and carelessness of the PDP warriors. The only way they can escape this punishment is by returning all our stolen money, or else they will all perish one by one and will never see peace in their hopeless lives...There is no doubt about.


And for those of you that still see nothing wrong with this horrible PDP picture, may you remain blind for the rest of your miserable lives.

Oputayula!!!

If you do not know the right top folks (Powerful Nigerians) who are willing to give you a soft landing in Nigeria, it will be a waste of time. There are tons of other Nigerians from UK and US hopelessly walking around just like the ones that went to Unilag. In Nigeria, it is mostly never about what you know or your education level, but all about who you know.
No doubt, home sweet home, but you must be very careful and do your homework before you make your move. Nigeria is not what it used to be.
Most of the people that relocated from UK or US have already returned back, with a promise not to ever return.

You must also think about weak security, senseless system, brainless people, failed infrastructure, poor medical system, extremely expensive or weak education for your children and more than everything else Family DRAMA. If you are not ready to face all these things, I will advise you to get yourself a good job and enjoy a peaceful life style in USA. Home is where you're free and have a peace of mind. Nigeria is not going anywhere, you can always relocate when things on ground start making sense.

Good luck!

Ucheosefoh:
in as much as you want to bring down the former president do it matured ly rather than this baseless accusation of drinking before meeting world leaders

What I have posted is not new in Abuja... Everybody knew that our former president mostly couldn't function without first tasting the honey (ogogoro). That was how he operated.

This is not a way to disrespect or bring the man down, (he has already brought himself down), this is simply fact.
You do not have to believe me.

I still believe that with time a lot of things about Jonathan and his method of operation will start to come out 1 by 1.

Jonathan was a biggest mistake. He knows it and his people know it too.

sholatech:
Keep yourself happy. I only agree that we should pray for him. But can't see list of those achievements you mentioned. Ex-president Goodluck also had met with all these World Leaders at beginning of his administration. Except that's alll you expect from a President!

Na lie!
From a reliable source: Jonathan was mostly frighten when he had to travel to meet other presidents, especially presidents from the west. There were many times, he had to drink before meeting these people.
You guys continue to find excuses for a failed president, a man that brought this country to her knees.

I'm not sure what it would take to accept that Jonathan was a severe mistake...

FYI:
Jonathan visited Minna Mansion 4 times during the campaign and Buhari too visited the place 3 times. But now that we know the next president, IBB has been quiet as a house cat.

It makes no sense to host both front runner presidential candidates, and all of a sudden, you have nothing to say.
I wonder if he will be present at the inauguration ceremony in the morning.

Nothing against IBB, just only wondering if Marradonna is up to something as usual.

For the past few weeks now, IBB has been extremely quiet, nothing has been heard from his mighty Minna Mansion. Even Obasanjo is making noise, Shagari is doing his things, Abdulsalami Abubakar is visible and Gowon too is also talking indirectly, but IBB has been silent.

Only God knows what the man is currently up to.

BigB11:
It is only in Africa that we want special recognition award for doing what we supposed to do; even my gate-man wants a prize for opening the gate for visitors.

When you lose an election you concede... this is not a big deal, but what you supposed to do.

Lol

Very funny, but true talk.

Honestly, Jonathan's followers were just too weak, unstable, and unfocused for him to make any weird move. He simply didn't have any other choice but to quickly concede.
It would have been a senseless suicide for him to do anything else, especially, against a former military head of state.

I heard that Jonathan sacked the Police IG, Suleiman Abba because the man refused to comply with assisting PDP with election manipulation during the presidential election.
Instead of Mr president to focus more on putting together a smooth transition process, he is busy with sacking and firing. I heard Mr. president has only started to ask questions he was supposed to ask 3 years ago and also firing people he wasn't supposed to hire 3 to 4 years ago. Isn't it amusing how Dr Jonathan all of a sudden woke up from an everlasting comatose?

Nigeria we hail thee,
Our own dear native land,
Though tribe and tongue may differ,
In brotherhood we stand,
Nigerians all, and proud to serve
Our sovereign Motherland.


I predict that Dr Jonathan has a lot of questions to answer when his position expires on May 29th.

Thank God for putting an end to our mediocre president. A lazy man that wants presidential benefits, but has no sense or skills or wisdom to work for it.

Sai Buhari!

3 things that ruined Jonathan:

1. Patience Jonathan
2. Fani Kayode
3. Ayo Fayose

Jonathan had every opportunity to stop these 3 pin heads, but he was too blind and Stupld to step in and redirect these entities.

In-short, Jonathan pretty much killed himself.

If Tinubu is that relevant, Buhari would have selected him as the VP, and not Osibanjo.

Buhari will have no choice, but to can Tinubu if he crosses the line. Nobody is bigger than Nigeria; this is the main lesson of this past presidential election

OBJ probed and jailed Tafa Balogun, Bode Goerge, Alamiasegha and many other perceived political enemies but has nothing on Tinubu.

Jonathan, the dumbest president of all time tried using code of conduct bureau to arrest Tinubu but has nothing on him.

The only place you hearabout Tinubu's corruption is among you sore losers.

Lair!

I can not be a loser, simply because I support APC with my heart and soul, but if we want the best for our country, we must be honest and work together as one. Tinubu must lay off.


If you do not know that Tinubu is a thief, then something serious is wrong with your head. Just because other thieves weren't able to nail him doesn't make him to be an angel. Even Tinubu knows that Tinubu is a complete thief. It is now up to Buhari to either send him home or send him to jail.
If anyone could make this happen, it will be Buhari. I guess, we shall see the end result, but Buhari must take action asap.
