adioolayi: On weak Naira and strict restrictions on FOREX....it's crystal clear...Forget devaluation of Naira..it won't happen.. We don't have FOREX...any business man Importing Rice, toothpick and Textiles should find other things to do..No Forex for them. Forex will be provided for business that will drive Our Industrial sector...say importation of raw materials that are not locally available.
I see a man that is Bold enough..fit for the throne. Sincerely, I am a Nigerian, President Buhari is MY PRESIDENT.
VintageCocktail: thousands of miles away, you say?? Aircraft carrier can be in our backyard, on the waters between Nigerian territorial waters and international waters in a jiffy. It is quite easy to launch an attack from the sea if they can't find a suitable land base.
I wonder why people are making this Iran more than it really is, Iran attack Nigeria from thousands of miles away? some people really are jokers, same way they Iran made too much talk against Iraq and found out the hard way? Imagine! And Iraq is right next door! I laugh is Persian.
PentiumPro: In the situation those guys found themselves, the rule of engagement is clear, do everything to protect yourselves and superior out of arms way.. I tell you, if this affront on the military by arms wielding thugs was in a place like Maiduguri, you would have been counting the deads in thousands. They were not deployed for any operation, they were on the convoy of the COAS, which he is fully entitled to. You guys are downplaying the serious breach of security and act of aggression of those thugs while ascribing the whole blame to the military guys. You are entitled to your opinion, just like I'm entitled to mine. The army guys did the right thing to protect themselves in the face of clear and present danger.
The military Oga was begging them to give way and the useless guy was saying not until one barrack commandant comes, so he's explaining to him which useless commandant at that point when the leader of all soldiers is there, they just want to prove stubborn, in the end they and their leaders learnt a very valuable lesson, they think this play military can stand the Nigerian army
themilanway: And some fools will come here and rant about how the economy is on stand still and bla bla bla yet refused to admit their god forsaken hero bankrupted Nigeria to point of recession,all in the name playing parisan and ethnicity politics...........cursed and brain washed mofos.
Every day we wake up to read about one fraud or another tied to the apron of shoeless,clueless and drunkard Otuoke accidental president.
Add [2.1billion to [1.1billion dollars,then subtract that from the already mortaged economy and tell me how it will look like.
The Saudis annouced this morning they have a 34 islamic nation alliance. The question is who authorised our military to be part of a faith based alliance. Will a christian Igbo man be sent to Syria to fight for Sunni islam. The world is clear that Saudi Arabia is one of the major sponsors of terrorism in Syria. So the point is why do we have the senate and house of rep if one day we wake up to be told that we are now in islamic military alliance.
networkgenuis: Mention one instance, just one, where the Shias attacked or bombed anyone. Why do some of you guys hate them like this? Haba!
As for the quoted statement in bold... #sighs Are those enough reason to kill them? Who are you to judge?
"sheikh Zakzaky was a political prisoner for nine years during the 1980s and 1990s, accused by successive military regimes of civil disobedience. His supporters have been involved in many violent clashes with the state over the decades - 120 of his followers are currently in prison - and political analyst Muhammad Kabir Isa says they do constitute a genuine threat. Mr Isa, a senior researcher at Ahmadu Bello University, describes the sheikh's movement as "a state within a state". "I know for one that his outfit embarks on drills, military drills," Mr Isa said."
