ROSSIKE: That is NOT the first storey building in Nigeria. The first storey building in Nigeria was built thousands of years before the first Englishman existed.
You are on your own [OYO] with your MISPLACED patriotism that is at variance with reality!
So Vanguard that i use to respect wants to put this hard working Government in a bad light? not a problem. President Buhari is an Honorable man, and will keep to his promises.
Your Bubu is a 419er and confirmed FRAUDSTER cum SCAM artist who is the epitome of corruption hence he would have implemented this simple promise that he voluntarily made from May 29. That was what Alhaji Lateef Jakande did for the UPN four cardinal programmes in 1979. No excuses. Just Do It, as Nike advertises. That is what people of integrity do, not so
egift: Who are these elders trying so hard to impress. The two things that are fueling Afenifere's current stance are PDP elements in the group and their hate for Tinubu. They are fighting to ensure that Tinubu does not become far more powerful than their organization. But all these antagonizing of the Buhari's administration is not the best way to challenge Tinubu's political domination in the SW.
I thought your "PDP elements" have found their fellow CORRUPT politicians, who pretend to be angels, in the winchious APC. Not so
frankwyte: to be frank that I am, you completely ignore baba however, he needs to be told that Nigeria belongs to every citizen of this country and he cannot claim monopoly of everything regarding Nigeria. in my candid advice : do less talking more advice... your reign in this democratic setup witnessed political killings, harassment, no regards for court judgments, Anambara gangsterism, state invasion, Odi crisis, sail of public properties in the name GSM, NEPA etc.. just to name a few
Abeg make you permit and allow me to add the worstest CORRUPTION under the Agbaya of Owu's eight wasted years of second chance civilian presidency.
...F A C T.. C H E C K ...
'Obasanjo and Atiku in 8 years built one UNIVERSITY each for themselves....Bells and ABTI. They built NONE for Nigerians.
Jonathan and Sambo in 4 years built 14 (FOURTEEN) new universities for all Nigerians. NONE for themselves.
NOTE: OBJ and ATIKU are now consultants/sponsors/piloters/members of APC.... They too are seeking CHANGE!!!
I choose TRANSFORMATION than this their CHANGE. What about you
kennyman2000: Exactly what buhari, he said ''he'ld lead the warfront'' Baba thought, he wouldnt be busy as such in his presidential office so he could do that. But, he isnt opportuned as Naija problem is bigger than Naija itself. Baba then thought of appointing someone who would do that on his behalf and not someone who'll sit down in office and be looking forward to bank alert.
With this, i think buhari has tried keeping to his promise.
Thanks Mr president for keeping to your promise.
Abeg na wetin you dey smoke for early Sunday momo like this? Since when did President Buhari become one & the same with COAS Buratai
Lest we forget this is the recent timeline and snapshot of the sequence of our Boko Haram saga =>
What happened to his miracle working "body language"?
When will it hit the Boko Haram sector?
NgeneUkwenu: Governors Shun Private Jets As Buhari's Body Language Hits Aviation Sector
Nigerian governors — known for their romance with luxury, typified by expensive local and foreign trips on private jets — may finally be cutting their coat according to their cloth.
Since the inauguration of the President Muhammadu Buhari administration in May 2015, the jet charter business has dipped to an all-time low in Nigeria, industry insiders have told TheCable.
“Before and during the election in March, I would say the charter business hit its peak, but since Buhari was sworn in, there has been a marked low frequency,” the chief executive of one of the operators, who asked not to be named, said.
The first factor held responsible for the change in travel habit is Buhari’s “body language” — a euphemism for the spartan lifestyle and the anti-corruption posture of the president who, many believe, will soon unleash the anti-graft agencies on public officers. Maintaining a low-key lifestyle is a strategy to divert the searchlight elsewhere.
“Clearly, since the governors reduced their patronage, our business has been seriously hit. That is the major cause of the lull. Without the governors, our business cannot boom,” he said, but did volunteer information on the value of business lost so far.
princeuj2015: Our president might be slow but surely he is STEADY and the good news here is that WE ARE GOING HIGHER eehhh WE ARE GROWING HIGHER DAY by DAY!!
Is this how to go higher? =>
Boko Haram kills 160 Kukawa-Gari villagers Aug 21 2015
Despite the denials by Nigeria’s military that Boko Haram did not attack Kukuwa-Gari village in Yobe state, the villagers insisted the attack happened, reviewing upwards also the death toll from 150 to 160.
The army had stated that the report of the attack was ‘unsubstantiated’.
But the affected villagers described how more than 150 of their relatives and neighbours drowned in a river fleeing militants who opened fire on them last week Thursday. Aanother eight were shot dead.
A local official put the death toll at a much lower 50 while Colonel Rabe Abubakar, the acting director of the military’s information department, said reports of the incident were “not true, utterly scurrilous and very misleading” in a statement entitled “Boko Haram did not kill 150 in Yobe”.
He said the military was tipped off ahead of the attack, so that troops and civilian forces were able to ambush the Boko Haram militants outside Kukuwa-Gari.
“The insurgents ran into them and a gunbattle ensued in which four Boko Haram members and one civilian (fighter) lost their lives,” he said.
The villagers’ count of the dead in Kukuwa-Gari would constitute the largest loss of life in any single Boko Haram attack since President Muhammadu Buhari swept to power on May 29, vowing to crush the insurgency.
Olufemiolaolu: Wailers see d life of ur clueless hero of massive corruption ooooo. Jona don nearly finish Nigeria. Ole barawo?
What will you call the 36 state governors
FG, States, LGs Share N568.4 Billion for Oct 15 NOVEMBER 2013
Also, $1billion was proposed for distribution to complement shortfall in expected revenue." The $1billion is a compromise by the FG over its words in September not to augment shortfalls anymore.
Responding to the presentation, the chairman of the States Commissioners of Finance and Ebonyi State Commissioner of Finance, Mr Timothy Odaah, lamented that the statutory allocation was getting smaller and smaller. "It appears this is the worst in terms of returns. This is the least in allocations as far as this year is concerned. We are mourning the dearth of funds and this is a wakeup call for states and local governments to buoy up their internally generated revenue."
While appreciating the "magnanimity" of President Goodluck Jonathan to approve the $1billion from the excess crude account and to be shared among the federal, state and local governments, Odaah expressed disappointment with the returns made by the NNPC.
He said that [size=14pt]the states had requested for $2bn[/size] to complement for the shortfall in revenue but got only $1billion. In September, Odaah and fellow commissioners had walked out of the Accountant General of the Federation (AGF) when the federal government said that the framework of the 2013 budget was no longer realistic and it won't augment shortfall in revenue. Odaah raised issues with the statutory allocations of previous months.
hansad: Kwankwasiya. So the huge federal allocations that Kwankwaso and other Kano governors raked in through local govt allocations were not enough to build adequate drainage system in Kano. Late Sani Abacha unduly proliferated 44 local govt councils in Kano state just to rake in oil revenues.
Since then, Kwankwaso and Co. have refused any democratic political restructuring in Nigeria
He used the money to fund his $1 billion school in Niger REPUBLIC while Kano children continue roaming the streets and some President Buhari come here to still praise him!
Really Bubu's body language never hit the petroleum sector abi!
Where are the sai bubu change chanters?

philips70: You don't need pastor Muoka to lay hands on your head like Wike to receive the common sense to answer this your question.
Thanks for confirming that you have neither the capacity and/or willingness to answer this valid question that exposes your HYPOCRISY for exactly what it is. Cheers.
sonnie10: This Lagos small sha, if person fart for one end, you can smell it from the other end. How come they are not enable to maintain it dispite the huge IGR?
Helep me ask the useless sycophants who have sold their souls for a pot of porridge to answer.
People will be shouting APC APC APC Yoruba Yoruba Yoruba while sloshing through this just to look for a job to feed their hopeless children. I'm an Igbo man and I hate what Rochas Okorocha is reducing Imo to. Under Sam Mbakwe, Imo build it's own airport with 0 federal assistance or money and local engineers and architects. Today we stand toe to toe with Osun and Zamafara to beg for money from a cattle rearer with no education!
philips70: Hypocrisy and hatred sometimes make you lose your mind and sense of reasoning. The jumbo pay for legislators were set at a time when the biggest PDP criminal of all time in the person of David Mark ably assisted by Ekweremadu held the whole nation by the jugular as senate president and deputy SP. Interestingly this same man never stops defending this wanton rape of suffering Nigerians any time he's called upon. Precedence is a condition that's not easily erased from a system but gradually with the exemplary leadership of this president things will begin to take shape. A cursory look at the bible might reveal PDP was one of the plagues God unleashed on Egypt when Pharaoh refused to let his people go. Thank God for reasonable Nigerians!
The precedence of governors using private jets that you CLAIM Buhari's "body language" has erased is what you and your other change chanters have been praising to high heavens, not so Why can't his body language also erase the precedence of bogus salaries for our legisLOOTERS?
Goke7: you guys are so funny o, don't you know what seperation of powers is? Buhari only has power over the Federal arm of Govt, including all the Federal agencies, the judiciary and house of assembly are independent, the states also are independent, his powers are limited to other arms of Govt. If Baba starts you guys will say he is interfering. This also why the probe of tinubu and amaechi u guys shout too is impossible by PMB since its their states' money, Do you understand now
Is there no separation of power with the 36 state governors ni?
You see now that you are the funny one joining others to sing praises and adoration of the man for using his "body lamguage " to make governors shun private jets but you talk of separation of powers on the CORRUPT salaries received by our SINators and representaTHIEVES of even his own party of saints & angels.
NgeneUkwenu: I Think This Is The Best Time To Tie President Buhari To A Life Term Contract With A Release Clause Of 10Trillion Dollars, at least to dissuade the Western Countries From Snatching Him From Us.
This Kind Of Leader Is Rare To Find Anywhere!
Umu Wailing Wailers What Do You Think?
How many presidential jets has he handed over to Nigeria airways to revive it as he promised Abi that one na FAKE promise just like everything about the "strong, incorruptible man of integrity"?
Campaign promises: Buhari’s presidential jets on the spotlight JUNE 27, 2015
President Muhammadu Buhari promised to prune the Presidential Air Fleet and Nigerians are counting days, GBENRO ADEOYE writes
President Muhammadu Buhari took a long and tortuous journey to the Aso Villa unlike others before him. After three failed attempts, Buhari made history with his fourth bid to be Nigeria’s President, defeating the incumbent.
His fourth attempt, with many campaign promises, had more drama than his previous ones.
Two decades ago, the promises could have been forgotten already, but that period is long gone in the country’s history. But today, we live in a ‘computer age’, one of internet, social media and more political awareness among the general public.
Buhari’s promises were premised on dealing with four focal issues: corruption, insecurity, economy and unemployment, but there were other legs like ensuring fiscal responsibility and curbing wastefulness in government, which is where his promise to prune the presidential air fleet came in.
Buhari, during his electioneering, described Nigeria’s presidential fleet under former President Goodluck Jonathan, as a “waste.”He therefore promised to make changes when he assumed office.
In a speech delivered to the Nigerian community in the United Kingdom in February, Buhari described the waste alongside corruption as the major killers of the country’s economy.
He had said, “Let me give you an instance, presently, there are more than six aircraft in the presidential fleet. What do you call that? Billions of Naira is budgeted every year for the maintenance of these aircraft not to talk of operational costs and other expenses.
“You may want to ask what a Nigerian President is doing with so much aircraft when a Prime Minister of Britain flies around using the same public aircraft like ordinary Britons.
“Go and check and compare with that of any developed country in the world, the Office of the Nigerian President is a very expensive one in spite of our poverty and joblessness. Despite all these, you still find a Nigerian Minister spending about N10bn to charter an aircraft for just one year.
“Now for me, when we come into office, all these waste will be blocked and properly channelled into our economy. We intend, for instance, to bring back our National carrier, the Nigerian Airways. We shall do this by bringing all the aircraft in the presidential fleet into the Nigerian airways and within a year increase the fleet to about 20.
“What is the difference between me and those who elected us to represent them? Absolutely nothing! Why should Nigerian President not fly with other Nigerian public?”
