I applaud the wisdom in pairing Buhari and Osinbajo.

One General. One Professor. One Nigeria.

Boy, stop pulling figures out of your butthole like an illiterate.

The data was culled from the Nigerian Bureau of Statistics, and from the table above, Enugu has a monthly wage bill of 3.4 billion, and a monthly income of 5.3 billion, leaving it with 1.8 billion leftover cash for capital obligations, so where did you get your baseless story?
Oh, and for the record, Lagos has a monthly wage bill of 20 BILLION.

It is a well-known fact that lying is firmly etched in your DNA, so this piss-poor diatribe doesn't surprise me.
But please, keep your ignorance and deliberate delusions to yourself and stop polluting the internet with it.

aresa:
Feel free to explain to us why and how ENUGU and Lagos state are paying the same amount of N6 billion wage bill every month.

Do they have same numbers of workers or they pay their workers exorbitantly in Enugu to justify the alarming wage bill?

I've been trying to adopt a child since last year but you'll marvel at the compliance directives I was given. I'm not going to give up cos I know it'll come to fruition one day

aresa:
I was expecting you to show us figures from a decade ago. Very shallow and unintelligent, you mean Lagos state's population remained stagnant for 10 years with zero migration into Lagos?

This is why I avoid going back and forth with you, you come up with the most ridiculous and absurd nonsense..

Sorry, i'll go with the Lagos state government's version.

They know how many people they cater to...

His Excellency the executive governor, of Edo State, Comrade Adams Aliu Oshiomole, and our dear mother Hajia Aisha Oshiomole, His excellency the deputy governor of Edo state and his able and beautiful wife, the wife of our ... the wife of the chairman of our great party Mrs Oyegun, our zonal national woman leader, our state woman leader, the wives of the governors with me and the wives of the former governors that are with me, and the ones that we met here.

Distinguished ladies and gentlemen, we are here in Edo to see my sisters and mothers. The moment the executive governor started introducing some women to me, I know* that I am in the right place and I met the right APC women. ((crowd cheers)) This is what is called digital! These are digital women! I am so delighted to be here and I am overwhelmed by the reception I got from the women of Edo state.

We are not here to campaign but to say a very good thank you, a very very big thank you to my sister the wife of the deputy governor, the commissioner for women affairs, the wife of the chairman of the party, the zonal woman leader, and the state woman leader for the job well done they’ve been doing in educating the electorate in Edo state.

In each zone of the country we have peculiar problems; our problems differs*. For me in this zone, girl-child trafficking should be considered one of our problems, though I know there is unemployment. The unemployment is the major factor that contributes to brain drain and also the girl-child trafficking. General Muhammadu Buhari is a leader, he was a leader, he led Nigeria some decades ago, and he is coming back now to sanitise the system.

For those that are campaigning, saying that he is coming to jail Nigerians, I don’t know what their fear*, but they shouldn’t because we are all yearning for change. The insecurity of the country, the very very very bad healthcare system, lack of education and other basic necessities that people are lacking. I think they need somebody like him now, and already some years back he have* been contesting. They have painted him black using religion. I’m happy today Nigerians discovered that they use religion as a cover to loot Nigeria to nonsense*. They’ve grounded the country. Whoever talks to you about religion in this country, a politician that can talk to you about religion, he is a liar. He is a liar, he wants to loot! He wants to loot the little resources you supposed* to enjoy, so say no to politics, comparing it, matching it with religion to deceive people.

I’m here today to let Edo women know that when my husband elected* into the office of the ... president of the federal republic of Nigeria, all these are going to be history. The insecurity, the girl-child trafficking, suffering of the widows in the south-east will come to an end. There must be a design, a cultural design that can accommodate the widow, and then a design that can [size=14pt]make the girl-child comfortable wherever she is in this country. She doesn’t need to leave her country to go and prostitute elsewhere.[/size] It is not her portion. Her portion is to have a moral, a highly standard* moral society for her to live, get married, have children, train them ... train them and also mould them to become the future of our leaders*.

We’re here today to also educate you and to let you know that the collection of PVCs is important. You collect your PVC and don’t sell it. Don’t ever sell it. Don’t ever sell it; it’s like selling your future again. When you sell it for five thousand, you won't see five thousand* again till after four years, which is too bad for you. Get your PVC, vote for APC, vote for freedom, vote for new Nigeria. Good security, good education, good health care, good road* and all the basic necessities should be given to you.

I thank you all for being here this afternoon, being under the sun for hours waiting to see me. Thank you so much, I love you all. Thank you, thank you so much.

Last week ... sorry last week we lost a sister, a mother, a former woman leader, Mrs Modinat Omoduwa. Can we have a one minute silence* for her…
((8 second pause))
May her soul rest in perfect peace. Thank you so much.

APC!! APC!! APC!! Edo!! Edo!! Nigeria!!

God bless you all.

Was his state bailout fund withheld?

Buhari knows there is greed in the blood of PDP members so he had to withhold the money till the appropriate time.

As a rejoinder to this publication: https://www.nairaland.com/2872621/aregbesola-inflated-airport-contract-n11.5bn#42080710

Femi Makinde, Osogbo

The Osun State Governor, Mr. Rauf Aregbesola, has said he deserves commendation for building the Moshood Abiola International Airport at Ido-Osun, Osun State, for N11.5bn.

A consultant to the state government on information, Mr. Sunday Akere, who spoke on behalf of the governor, said this in a telephone interview with our correspondent on Tuesday.

He said the contract was not inflated to siphon the state’s resources as alleged by the Peoples Democratic Party.

He said the increase in the contract sum was necessitated by the inflation caused by the fall of the naira.

Akere said, “The PDP in Osun should be ignored, they are just seeking relevance. They should find out how much PDP states like Akwa Ibom, Gombe and others built their airports.

“When former President Goodluck Jonathan was in power, he said he added an additional airstrip to the Nnamdi Azikiwi International Airport, Abuja with N36bn. We should be commended for building an airport with N11.5bn.

“If we are building a complete airport with a hanger and other facilities for N11.5bn, then we should be commended. The governor deserves commendation.”

Akere also said the initial cost of the airport was underestimated.

But the PDP accused the governor of increasing unilaterally the contract sum of the airport from N4.5bn to N15.5bn.

The Director of Media and Strategy of the Osun PDP, Mr. Diran Odeyemi, said this in a statement on Sunday.

The statement read, “We are aware that Governor Rauf Aregbesola, on January 8, 2016 through a letter with reference number SP/S96/1/vi/348 re-awarded the airport contract to the same contractor and a payment of N472m was paid as take-off sum.

“The same company had earlier been paid N2.7bn for the same project without any serious work done on the project.

The PDP also accused the governor of inflating the contract sum in order to embezzle the bailout funds it got from the Central Bank of Nigeria.

The opposition party lamented that workers in the employ of the state were languishing in hunger as a result of unpaid salaries.

The party had said, “We are calling on the President and anti-graft agencies to send a secret team to the site of the so-called Moshood Abiola International Airport, Ido-Osun, to confirm what the government and the airport company had done with the N2.7bn taken from the purse of the state on December 14, 2012.


“Out of the amount, N2.5bn was sourced as a loan from a bank to be repaid monthly at N100m from the SURE-P funds. That loan is now part of the N88bn restructured for the state by the Central Bank for repayment till the year 2034 .”

Joining APC is like going for confession. Your sins are forgiven...go and sin more.

Unfortunately they'll teach you the art of lying and blaming others for their own misdeeds.

In as much as I believed it is far too early for any right thinking person to be talking of second term for PMB/PYO talkless of endorsing them for second term considering the fact that this government is yet to achieve a fraction of what they promised the populace.

Lol.. Probably in his old mind, he thinks Benue, Borno and even Plateau are all in Benin Republic

teepain:
GEJ had tried his best and he is gone but one of his undoing is that he is a pacifist as he would rather cut deals and pacify people instead of making hard decisions.

The case of Tinubu is shameful to the extent that the only case that the FG through CCB could prefer against him was that of OPERATING INACTIVE FOREIGN ACCOUNTS. There was no case of illegally acquired asset, false declaration or anticipatory declaration of assets and yet the former President's men (who should know) alleged serious corruption against Tinubu. The question is why did their principal (GEJ) not act on those allegations?

Whenever a corrupt politician is prosecuted, Heavens and the masses rejoice because the kingdom of looters is decimated.

As long as the culprit committed the offence, he or she should be prosecuted regardless of witch hunting or selective prosecution claims.

Any party that finds its candidate in Aso Rock in the future should remember this and therefore prosecute the looters of our collective wealth.

Lastly, Nigerians shouldn't bother themselves about the political party, tribe or ethnicity of any looter under trial, the only thing that matters is that the prosecution must prove that the crimes were actually committed.
