Yes, Nigeria has the potentials to replicate China, even much more. That given, this current administration with Buhari at the helms of affairs have no clear cut economic policy to drive the Nation to such enviable height amongst the committee of nations..Buhari is clearly not economically sound and may not give reins to the much needed technocrats in his cabinet. If the recent move of the current administration is anything to be taken serious, he not only must go after the opposition, he also must reel out into past regimes pre-1985, to clear the rot that hitherto have become normal...The funds recovered must be used for infrastructural development, build industries...Nigeria must be an industrialized Nation..Nigeria must be an export driven economy...the dependency on oil must be demystified..
This can be done on the one hand and as Alexis de Tocquexille quote states, " in a democracy,people get the government they deserve" , it is high time the Nigerian populace start placing demands of accountability on their elected public officials at all levels and strata of society...for Nigerians to understand that true power belong to the people and is vested in our institutions... when the institutions are strengthened, instead of strong men then we as a Nation can take our place as the true giant of Africa an economic power house indeed....if our institutions are strong, it wheels on auto pilot even if the man at the helms has an ineptitude or the other..good roads, functional and reachable health care system, electricity generation and supply etc are all bye-products of a strengthened and functional institutions..in summary, the responsibility lies within Nigerians.

Africa does NOT need strong men, it needs strong INSTITUTIONS!

The biggest challenge facing Nigeria is the large scale looting of our national treasury by public office holders. If we can keep corruption under check that is minimal we have the human capital, to achieve economic advancement.

franconian:
I agree with you. The big question now is as followers where do we start from?

joeyekembele:
Some of you are so blindfolded that you don't see anything wrong in Buhari. If federal agents give you urine to drink as Lacacera or poo to eat as cake you will gladly take hence it is from Buhari. Whatever is wrong is wrong. Dis the custom complain that they were into hoarding? It was alleged to be smuggled. Argue on that line, instead you are deviating from the truth. . What stop the authority from going there at the say time? Even if they truly smuggled, the custom authority aided it. Call a side a spade and let's correct size anomalies pls.

EdDave:
Buhari has dissappointed me. Why rob traders (and collect their money too?) at night when you can arrest in the day or at the borders. This is not the way to go.
And he can't claim he doesn't hear about this. Cos that ll be really dissappointing.

bulletproofmonk:
Do you also have proof they paid duties? Stop being emotional for once and reason

heffem:
Same thing happened here in Badagry roundabout on friday morning..... The question is..."Why come in the middle of the night"?...... Secondly, if it's a genuine operation, why do they have to steal phones and money from the guys protecting the goods and shops??....... I pity this country's condition in the nearest future

Obasanjo shared $74million Halliburton bribe, Okiro Panel says: • OBJ also pocketed another $5 million with PDP • Interim Panel report disappeared in Aso Rock
MAY 18, 2010


President Olusegun Obasanjo, who led Nigeria from 1999-2000, during which time he swore to fight corruption in the country, obtained considerable helpings of the infamous Haliburton bribe money, the Special Investigation Panel headed by Inspector-General of Police, Mike Okiro, has declared in an interim report.

Chukel Oya see oh....

Bayelsans decided...

Freemanan:
Your thinking defiles logic sir.
Seriously?
How can you say because the Bible said because of AB we have CD, then conclude that CD will also give AB... Nah..

Dont twist the holy book.

Strahovski:
I assume you are not a Christian. Jesus Christ said.. "Old things have passed away, behold, all are made new"

David.. Solomon... were of the Old Testament! In the new testament, jesus Christ in his teachings made men know that they are to have one wife!

Even in that same old testament, the law of moses still forbids multiple wives. So that David and Solomon broke the law does not make it right.

obiorathesubtle:
Deut 17:17 neither shall he multiply wives to himself

Strahovski:
Yes it's a sin...

The bible says:

".... and for a Man shall leave his family and cling to his Wife (Not wives) and they shall become ONE"

obiorathesubtle:
Yes! It's a sin!

Religion is doing what you're being told irrespective of what is right, Logic is doing what is right irrespective of what you've been told.

The Bible says it's wrong, and doing what is wrong is a sin. Therefore it is a sin!

QED!

wink2015:
In Nigeria, it is rather sad to see criminal denying their actions, Deziani Madueke,Stella Odua denied, Akpolobokemi denied, Kuku denied, Orubebe denied, Ex-governor, Akpabio denied etc but they forget to realise that their wrong actions was being recorded in books by God.

Almaiga:
Who do they think they can fool with this press release. when Dokpesi himself had already testify that, he recieved money from the ofice of the NSA. Dokpesi's family should bury their faces in shame.

onomeasike:
When baba said corrupt people who stole during the corrupt govt of GEJ, will be prosecited and named,PDP and tanoids said BABA should publish the names or keep shut, now Baba published their names, now they are complaining that it's a media trial. All these thieves and their families sef

egift:
Kudos Buhari for fight corruption.

Dollarization Of The APC Primaries: How Amaehi Vanquished Atiku #saibuhari

The blogosphere was inundated with reports of the excessive sharing of dollars at the All Progressives Congress which took place during the latter part of last week.

One APC supporter and Special Adviser to Osun Governor on Environment, BolaIlori had blown the scandal open after he saw the beginning stages of the dollarization in action.

He took to his Facebook page and scribbled, “Crazy things are happening here!!! Some of these cannot represent the change Nigeria is yearning for. Excessive dollarization by one of the aspirants to is to say the least obscene. I have been involved in political process for decades now, I have never witnessed this volume of raw dollarization of party primaries. I only read about this kind of things in PDP primaries. A question been asked by conscientious delegates is that whoever can be giving out between $2000 to $5000 to…delegates certainly does not represent the kind of change Nigerians want…those who contributed to the pauperization of Nigeria now revel in dollarization… majority of Ondo delegates are still standing with Buhari but have been reduced from 85% to 70% within 24 hours…the remaining has gone with dollars ooo.!!!!!”

One has to wonder how Buhari was able to win the primaries in this era of stomach infrastructure where dollars are like the Biblical manna that God sent down from heaven to nourish the Israelites as they made their way to the promised land.

Sources close to the APC with knowledge of the way the Primaries unfolded have revealed that it was Rivers State Governor, Amaechi who flew back to Rivers State and returned to Lagos on Thursday morning with enough dollars to make Benjamin Franklin blush.

It has been revealed that Atiku offered the delegates $5000 each, but Amaechi doubled it to $10000 a pop. Thus turning the tables in favour of General Buhari.

Since his adventure into the APC, Amaechi has gone out of his way to prove himself a party loyalist, always the first to shoki or azonto at the many events the APC holds, which he himself is usually the chief sponsor.

According to party insiders, Amaechi has overtaken Tinubu as the major financier of the party. One does not need to wonder why he is always at President Jonathan’s throat over misappropriated oil wells or other such business. Anything that diminishes from the State’s coffers will have a ripple effect on his funding budget for the APC.
