If it is not foolishness or just illiteracy that is worrying people that think like this; after arresting him with DSS, EFCC, ICPC, OPC or fulani herdsmen; isn't it the court that you will take them to, to prosecute them.

At the end of the day, they will still refer to the law books that you were hoping to bye pass (see Dasuki and Nnamdi kanu's case as an example).

So why not just humble yourself, read the damn laws book or get someone who has studied them professionally (they are called lawyers may I add) and prosecute them according to the same law.

Dundee united.....

Which part of our law gives immunity to judges?
Which part of our laws says judges can't be arrested?

If a judge commits a crime of rape, is it NJC that will decide the matter?

Judges are protected within the context of doing their constitutional job and that does not include committing crimes.

While you are advising people to read, please read up on the Nigeria Administration of Criminal Justice Act 2015 and wonder why our judges aren't following it. Why are judges choosing the laws to practice?

Not when it's in USD

At the exchange rate of 200/$, 9Bln is $45 Mln and 24Bln is $120 mln, please divide how many bundles that would be and how many bullion vans would be needed to move such.

The tale is only for those looking for yarns to feel good about.

He should also tell us the source of funds and how Buhari and his team managed the 19 billion naira that was given to him in cash by the then sitting Governor of the leading and largest state in the south west and the 24.6 billion naira that was given to him in cash and in one day (which was recorded on video before being handed over) by another leading south western politician.

When one wants to spin a story, one should try to at the minimum be smart. Most bank branches have never even had 4Billion in cash in their vaults, yet FFK wants us to believe Buhari would be given 24.6 Billion in cash!

It is like the fabu in Primary School where one kid said his father is so rich everyone has a personal swimming pool in their room. It is applauded by people that needs something to feed on but rationale people just simply shake their heads and mutter ,STUPID!

Pchidexy:
Your statement is a testament of your literacy level. We are not saying Dasuki should go free. However, a competent law court has to send him to jail.

You must not support Buhari in every thing he does! Haba!

Is Dasuki not in jail based on the decision of a competent court in Nigeria? Dasuki has been granted bail for SOME of his cases but NOT ALL of his court cases, thus he is still in jail based on the orders of a competent court in Nigeria.

These couple who are members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) -showed their true color at their wedding in the eastern part of the country. Almost everything at their wedding ceremony had a touch of the Biafran colour...even their "unique" cake which was the center of attraction at the event...

Only to receive a Marriage Certificate bearing Federal Republic of Nigeria! What irony.

Yes but other languages are not really necessary because majority can read and write. Hausas are the least educated/literate tribe.

Just like somebody was asking why is there no Yoruba BBC or Igbo BBC.

It is because of people like you that Ibrahim's post is being celebrated. People like you that have gone through school but leave much to be desired.

1. Hausa is a language spoken across many countries and not just in the Northern part of Nigeria.
2. Does literacy mean Read/Write IN ENGLISH? Is the German an illiterate because he can't write English? Those same people you think are illiterates Read and Write in Arabic, they count in the same language and do trade in it.
3. Yoruba is spoken in South West Nigeria and some parts of Benin Republic, while Ibo is obly spoken in the Sout Eastern part of Nigeria. Of what economic benefit is it to BBC to have dedicated programmes in this languages? Remember, they aren't bound by any requirement for geo-political balancing.

You need to be more like Ibrahim!

repogirl:
talk true, you did not read the story, did you?

Clearly YOU read it but failed to comprehend my question. Playing to the gallery is great and seemingly makes for a good read. However, the salient questions still needs to be asked.

A coalition that can assemble 20 SANs shouldn't have had issues to pay outright the bail bond without resorting to social media appeal.

And where were all these people when he was looking for Bail money?

SMH.

Lilimax:
Truth be told!
At lease we still have some people speaking out against all these evil people
masquerading themselves as agents of light
God will expose all of them!

You can start by naming one Pastor, General Overseer, Reverend, Imam or Apostle that wasn't part of the world before they had a change of heart.

Would you not reverence a rich man simply because both of you used to squat together in a face-me-i-face-you some years back?

Whynotthetruth:
Did you read the OP at all? So where did u get these inferences from? Did u read people being punished when they weren't even in Nigeria at all? smh

You can decide to focus on the 1 out of 38, while I focus on the 20+ out of 38. Choices my friend.

Whynotthetruth:
And you find it funny? Using military to rig election which APC did isn't the issue here...but ending someone's career or maliciously sacking an officer for doing NOTHING except he didn't rig for you or he didn't rig enough for you or he is a friend to someone you consider a threat to your ambition...Which pettiness and wickedness exceeds these

Cool down, the guy did something - He aided a party in an election! That aiding/rigging is AGAINST the rules of elections, against the rules of the nation and against the oath he took to defend NIGERIA.

When Mbu was all over PH and DSS was acting all partisan, many saw this coming but these people were hoping the other party wins and they would have gotten elevated. It is the same as stealing or armed robbery, if you aid it, you'd get punished despite not being there carrying gun on the actual day.

In fact me too I will call a Press Conference to complain.

When Buhari came to campaign in Port Harcourt, I worked for his campaign and got paid, but since he became President I have been marginalised and some cabals have not allowed me to see him again. I am disappointed that PMB is now seemingly not for everybody!

Abeg, where is the Wailers form?

I shudder when I read this kind of news. How do people report 4,000 people dead, 4000!, and would not put any pictures to support such assertion. Haba!

4,000 people ain't a joke o! To put that number in perspective :
=> greater than deaths in 9-11
=> 286 14-Seater buses (286 Peace Mass Transit /Edegbe Line / Bob Izua Motors / Agofure Motors)
=> 68 Luxurious Buses
=> 50 Molues

Haba, this kind of sensational news without substance shouldn't be given any prominence. If 4000 people are killed in KD, the mortuary wa there would be overflowing or corpses would be all over the ground.

This is quack reporting that's only fodder for sentiments.

Based on the Wike supporters screaming that the Kaduna-Abuja rail was GEJ project, can they please also scream that this is Amaechi's project too!

Abi no be Amaechi design, award, pay compensation, mobilise and start work on the road?

FabioPeter:
When the minister is from the south, the GMD has to be from the north or vice versa.That has always been the arrangement.

When you say That has always been the arrangement , please was that the arrangement under which Diezani was GMD and Minister under GEJ? Or was that arrangement shelved for a while to accommodate Diezani?

oweniwe:
So. .. In your mind... Delta people enjoyed those services free of charge?

They don't pay nepa bills?

And the government didn't pay d contractors that built the bitumen roads?

Don't get me wrong .... We are not saying we don't want to share or give resources ....

What we are saying is... If you want to take... Take wat u want and leave small for your host community.

Heavy duty equipments being moved by oil companies often destroy feeble communal road.

Oil dey yet we are paying N145 for per liter for imported petrol.

Gas dey to generate power...... Dey sell 20%, use 10% to generate power dat is stepped down far away.... Den they flare the remaining 70%... If a plant generates 150mw, is 500kva or so allocation to host community too much? Why leave them in darkness?

Oil exploration and hydro dam are two different things. Dams affect the ecology only once after they are built... You have probably not been to Niger delta Where gas is being flared for over 30 years now without respite

If you want to build pipeline or flow Station .... You can build as long as u want.. after u are done, repair the roads u cut up to lay your pipes....dont just lay pipe and run away..

Or build power Station and leave ur host without power

That is what we are saying.

Is any part of Nigeria enjoying fuel (diesel, kero, ago, lpfo or pms) free of charge?


BTW, stop the FUD, no oil company cuts roads to lay pipes and doesn't return them back to normal. Most of the development in these places are also largely due to the operations of these same oil companies. Most rural areas even have roads because the oil companies built these roads, some wouldn't have light if not for these oil companies.

We all need each other.

oweniwe:
If I hear.... Okpai... Agip host community in Ndokwa East produces oil, gas and hosts a power plant, yet the community is in darkness with no motorable roads.... D power generated in okpa is stepped down in Obosi.... Anambra state....

Does that make sense to you?

Even if it is 1mw out of 150mw, give to the community that produces and hosts the facilities ....

The marginal field operators in that axis are currently building pipeline over communities that BEDC Has refused to supply light for over 3 years now.

We are not saying we don't want to share oil revenue or power with other states in Nigeria ... What we are saying is... If you want to take, take whatever you want and leave something for the community that produces it.....

After taking wat they want they wil still destroy existing infrastructure on top with their heavy vehicles ... Its not fair.

Before Agip built that same power plant, the rest of the country, including Obosi, PH, Lagos, Calabar, Aba, Umuahia, etc, were enjoying light generated from Kainji. The Kainji community did not have light back then but the people of Warri did not complain, they were happy to have the light. Same way, the road from Ughelli to Warri was built from bitumen mined in Ondo state back then, no one complained.

All that I am saying is, we have all benefited from something coming out of the other states.

oweniwe:
It makes no sense using resources produced by 8-10 states to spoon feed 26 other states.

Delta state has 3 power plants but yet no light in Asaba ...

It doesn't make sense to continue suffering and sweating to power, oil and gas and receive peanuts or nothing....

while other states who don't even know what gas flaring is like or how farm lands are rendered worthless is pipelines are laid in it.... Are receiving free monthly allocation without breaking a sweat.

Until fiscal federalism or regionalism... Dey should bomb everything to 0.0 barrels per day.

Rubbish country

You are indirectly now asking for the other 35 states to help Delta State out. Given that almost all crude/gas activities has been grounded in Delta State, which is the reason why all the 3 power plants there are currently down, the only way to get power to anywhere in Delta State will be from the National grid. That power would need to be produced from OUTSIDE Delta State.

So you see, isolating oneself is not always necessarily a good thing. The same way other power producers will come to the aid of Delta State today, is why Delta State had been helping to generate funds for the nation since. It's a symbiotic relationship.

peter1994:
now people expect us to hail Buhari n the CBN Governor for this...... Forgetting that they are the reason why we are here in the first place...


.anyways better late than never...

But you want to blame Buhari for the state of things now right? Forgetting that the actions of the ineffectual one and his gang was the reason why we are here in the first place....

winniz:
So many of us now know what is going on, you lots have been fighting Linda ikeji and the Igbo nation without them having any idea. They are now so desperate, after this Linda ikeji and so many Igbos will have to pull out all their investment in Lagos

Linda Ikeji sell off that house and move back to the east or you relocate out of that country we are solidly behind you.
****

That might just be a good advice. Sell the house, pay FIRS their N75M and move back to the East.

Then Linda will ask you, "To where?"

Ebukaidoko:
Anyone that voted buhari during election should be ready on the judgement day, he/she must give account of what we are passing through.

And those that voted the ineffectual one, and despite the glaring mess he brought us to and are still calling him a hero, a special place in hot region should be reserved for them.

Naughtysite:


if they want to strip all former govt funtionaries of their wealth and redistribute it to nigerians, i would understand.

But what i dont understand is prosecuting PDP.

The former govt functionaries, are they in APGA or ANPP, or was it not PDP that was in power for the past 16 years that will be termed "former govt functionaries"?

Na small remain, your post for make sense but ....

GeneralShepherd:
The CEO of Shell earns $ 27 million per annum. Of course she's was never the CEO but for arguments sake a director earns up to half of that salary which is about $ 13.5 million dollars

Now she didn't retire from Shell, she left her role at Shell to work for Nigeria, so in your opinion will she leave Shell to earn lower?

Can you please post where you read it or learnt it or know it that the CEO of Shell earns $27 Million per annum. Na beg I dey beg you o!

Lilbrown007:

Taking 1$ = 200 For Minimum
$2m * 200 = #200,000,000
$17m * 200 = #3,400,000,000
Lets Say She Has Been Working For 10years Now And Her Salary Was #2million I No No How Much Them Day Pay Minister
That Is=
2000000*360*10=#7,200,000,000
That's 7.2 Billion Naira For 10years And Am Sure She Has More Than This In He Account

The above is what happens when you are told to pay attention in class but you are busy dreaming about the yahoo boy down the road.

$2m * 200 = 400,000,000.00
$17m *200 =3,400,000,000.00
Total is #3.8 Billion Naira.

The Ministers Salary in Nigeria is officially about #2Mln, plus allowances will take it to Max #5Mln and it is per annum! That would imply maximum of 50,000,000 (and that is if she saved every single kobo, ministers pay is here: https://www.naij.com/638102-revealed-much-buharis-ministers-will-earn-yearly.html)

So 10 years work at 5 Million per annum = 5,000,000 *10 = 50,000,000
Scratch that and let's be super generous, multiply that by 10! Lets say the margin of error is 1000% so therefore for the 10 years as a Minister, her maximum, earnings is #500Million!

She was an Executive Director in SHELL NIGERIA and not Shell Worldwide in 2006. Her take home pay for the Max 2 years will be #100million


This implies that for her Executive Director and Ministers work, her Top Ceiling earnings is #600,000,000.00
Now compare that to the #3,800,000,000.00.

That is a massive difference of #3,200,000,000.00; #3.2Bln

If we correct the Value of the assets for inflation and thus use 120/$ That is a difference of #1.92Billion.

nicefaze:
I am not a Sarakanian but now I Can confirm authoritatively that Sahara reporters is nothing but a bluffer. No such amount got missing in Saraki house as claimed by Sahara reporters and I can swear with my life about this. If a respected news outlet like Sahara reporters are falsifying their news just to feather their own nest, tell Me where is the integrity in journalism

When the same SR broke the news about Yar'adua, there were many like you swearing on their lives that it was not true.

Here you are swearing with your life yet you are not in Saraki's inner circle and probably hasn't ever met Saraki in person.

Ladanboso:
governor wike set up a committee to look into d rivers own case n dey found minister of transport guilty, y dint d efcc look into that? instead dey try to remove him frm office n DAT made him shutup. even d british said minister of transport is corrupt

What has stopped Wike or Rivers State Govt from instituting a case against Rotimi Amaechi in the Federal High Court of Rivers State or at the Rivers State High Court?

Is it that they don't have the facts or that there is nothing to sue on? Remember Amaechi has no immunity and nothing says only EFCC can charge a corruption case to court.

solar2005:
Contrary to claims that President Muhammadu Buhari had “scheduling difficulties” by the Presidency and could not make the planned 2-day visit to Lagos state on Monday, he instead hosted Governor Ibikunle Amosun of Ogun state at the presidential villa. Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo was rather drafted to make the Lagos state visit and has been commissioning projects in the state.

Presidential spokesperson, Garba Shehu, had said in a statement on Sunday that “The president is faced with scheduling difficulties and that is the reason for the postponement of the visit. He needs more time for Lagos and for Edo which had earlier been stepped down,” Shehu told state house correspondents on Sunday. “As a result of this, the visit has been scaled down and he is being represented by His Excellency the vice-president, who is going to Lagos to commission a few projects, leaving the rest for Mr. President.

Na wa o! Does Scheduling Difficulties not imply that there is a clash on his schedule that prevents him from being able to be in Lagos and also attend to something else?

What manner of graduates are we churning out in Nigeria, or is it that hate has prevented us from comprehending whatever we read?

Enahi:
What a small brain you have, there are so many Christians in the core North and very many in the Middle belt, but it's a different story in the South where majority are Christians.

Ah hah ha, in your mind! Is 98% of 10 Million greater than 70% of 20 Million? Like the 99% votes returned in Rivers State was more than the 80% returned in Kano.

Better go and learn more mathematics to help you out, or kukuma wait till 2019 and have a chance to chase Buhari out of power.

Enahi:
Stop trying to be myopic, Nigeria is a tribalistic Country and I repeat the Yorubas and Christians voted for Osinbanjo not for your old cargo grandpa!

Remove the massive numbers of Christians that voted because Osinbanjo is a pastor and also the Yorubas nobody will vote for your grandpa.

No problems. Just remove the votes of the Christians that voted GEJ, and also the SS that voted their kin, you'd see that no village would have voted the ineffectual one. Lol

boostdom:
You are a piece of pathetic filth. Unless reading with comprehension is not your forte, you had realise that the person you quoted (which is not me) had the context of "how will she be able to pass WAEC Physics if she can't read and write English?"

And you then you went on a customary rant on what you know absolutely nothing about. The Chinese is tutored in Chinese but is the language of examination Russian or Spanish? The Russian is tutored in Russian but is the language of examination Polish or French? The English speaking Universities in Germany are examined in English while the German ones are likewise examined in German. The language of instruction and examination has to be the same. How then is it rational to teach someone a technical course like Physics in Hausa and then expect anything out of him when s/he doesn't know a word in the language of examination English?

This is a very simple and elementary logic but congenital cretins like you who lack critical thought and objective reasoning can't see through.

You lack the capacity to objectively criticise dialectic reasoning.

After blowing all the grammar, it just confirms that you are only educated but not informed. it also shows that you are missing that cognitive abilities you are so desirous of showing off with.

First the quote I replied to is reproduced below and the context was not in relation to how the kids will pass the exams but on how they subject is being disseminated. You are free to put your own context to it.

HugeMac:
please zombie ! How would you write physics in hausa language? Explain

By the way, if you want to, you can come and teach me Geology using Yoruba, I will surely pass the exam even if it is in English. Medium of taught and examination can be different. The Nigerian students that go to Russia, and had to learn Russian to for their university do not forget their elementary maths taught them while in Nigeria simply because the new language of instruction is Russian. They simply write Pythagoras Theorem in Russian and continue their learning.

So my friend, you need some schooling and I hope you have learned today outside of your bruised ego. Physics can be written and taught in Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo, German, Hispanic, Arabic or any other language.

Enahi:
Who are the we yoy are reffering to, is it because GEJ refused to challenge the results of the elections? Perhaps you are reffering to the Northern underage voters.
We all know the election was rigged but let's leave that aside.

Y'all are shameless hypocrites with a useless worn out Preidiot!

Fyi the Yorubas didn't vote for Buhari they voted for Osinbajo, if you don't know now you know.

Whether he challenged it or not, Nigerians collectively voted Buhari more than the ineffectual one. You are quick to point out teh underage voters, please tell me under whose regime were they registered? Was it not teh same underage voters that were used in 2011?
BTW, from where did they manufacture those Rivers and Akwa Ibom numbers? Just leave matter and lick your wounds, get over it and wait for 2019 electeions.

You are a dolt! The Yorubas indeed didn't vote for Buhari, they voted Osinbajo. Can we then say that the Hausas weren't voting for GEJ in 2011 but were voting for Sambo?

richybanky:
Lols, d only they know very well is their Islamic studies and Hausa Language..
Northern part is really driving Nigeria back

With the same Islamic Studies and local languages, Pakistan, Iran and India are developing nuclear technology.

What have we developed with our English language? Denigrating a language or people doesn't make you any higher than them, it just shows you don't know about them very well.
