A fact that we all should accept is that ALL our politicians are selfish .....anything or law that will reduce their privilege will be resisted.

They are simply being stupid and clueless. They won't be in those positions forever hence they make it easier for themselves when they are no longer holding those positions by making better laws that we ALL respect.

Where is Sen. Ashafa today for example? What of Lucky Igbinedion, Segun Oni etc?

Our CURRENT state governors are repeating the same mistake by opposing LGA autonomy

It is because oyinbos understand this principle of Enlightened Self Interest that their SOCIETIES are so much better than ours even though our IQs are the same.

abes:
You are a liar.

Are these not the pictures you posted as Ibeno beach pictures?

http://www.destination360.com/north-america/us/california/stinson-beach

You also claimed they are cleaning the beach here http://gehoa.com.gh/Image-Gallery.aspx

Do you admit you a liar now?

Thank you for pointing out the ERROR with the photos I posted.
Did you check the blog addresses I copied them from? Were they described as Ibeno or not there?

Please note that I have nothing to gain personally in sharing erroneous photos of the beach. My interest as always is to share information about my dear country, Nigeria.

ilugunboy:
All these constitutional hiccups could have been avoided if the military have kept off from government.....most of these issues of our our democracy we are battling with could have been sorted out long time ago

That is what our federal legisLOOTERS should be doing as lawmakers in Abuja. For where? Dem just dey collect our multi millions for nothing as dem sabi sey we all be mumus who sabi hail dem wella and the problems go dey continue dey go.

Why will a mod allow a post calling me a liar to stay while deleting my response that abes is a lazy bum since he cannot search to verify the pictures

This is absolutely unfair and harmful to the reputation of NL being a balanced platform for exchange of ideas.

Aderostock:
Investors are not only looking for seaports, they consider security, infrastructures, population, et all before embarking on any investment.

You are very much on point.
The SS state governors need to get their acts better.

The last one is of a clean up exercise. Cool

The auto policy of the Jonathan/Sambo team continues to yield steady results with promise of youth employment. Unlike the clueless military DICTATORS who were simply importing cheap & cheerful things that killed off our industries.

Hopefully our state governors and LGA chairmen who have the constitutional responsibility to educate ALL our children will emphasise VOCATIONAL and TECHNICAL schools & colleges to provide a pool of employable people.

I wonder why the South South governors are not competing to have these plants located in their areas where they also have seaports
There is an urgent need to DIVERSIFY our industrial development away from over-saturated Lagos axis.

arewafederation:
If you think im lying, ask Jonathan.

and you want me to believe a poster, without a credible source and the context in which the statement was made
You must have mistaken me for one of the "senseless & useless" dogmatic followers of the Arewa People's Congress, APC. Sorry but I am not!

arewafederation:
You missed the fact that Boko Haram are the brothers and sons of Jonathan.

They are from Niger Delta where we derive the oil money we share as national cake
Is that where Sheriff and Shekau are from as well?

arewafederation:
Hehehehe... Reasoning distinguishes humans from animals and it has just been established that you do things without reason.

Kikikikikikikiki

I thought Boko Haram means no to Western education. Did I miss something

Just reminded me of ma nysc days...
Though the road leading there is bad..
Then if you in the mood- you fit see Exxon-Mobil guys...lol
___the beach tends to be dirty @times

Ibom Plaza used to be a sight, definitely not now na. It's now an aspiring Oshodi abi na Cele...
In all I love AKS!!

Absence of MAINTENANCE culture won't kill us in this country
What will it take for the LGA in charge to organize regular and constant clean up exercise of the beach so they can have more visitors and their people make more money from which they can increase their IGR

Abi we need oyinbo wey get two heads to come and re-colonise us so these facilities are maintained ni?

fagbalex:
your comment is a pity for this country. They said fg created 1m job in the transport sector which is no where to be found. Why is unemployment increasing at an increasing rate in this country? This is totally false!

What is the current unemployment compared to 1, 2, 4, 7 etc years ago so we can determine if it has not only being increasing but doing so at an increasing rate.
Don't forget to include your source [abi na sauce sef] when you provide these rates.

egift:
Until they post the names of 1,000,0000 they employed in the Transport Sector - it remains a lie. I agree job were provided, but I don't believe the 1million for a second.

Your grudging agreement that jobs were provided is good enough.

PhockPhockMan:
Former Head of State, Muhammadu Buhari has stated that he was aware that Ibrahim Babangida was planning to overthrow him in 1985.
Buhari, a retired major general and presidential aspirant on the platform of All Progressives Congress (APC), told TheCable: “It is true that I learnt he was planning a coup against me. And I sat and discussed it with him in my office.
“He brought the news that he went to Kano and people complained that I pulled a pistol during a council meeting. I said Ibro ? I called him Ibro because I was just senior to him by a few months ? I said whoever wants to sit on this
chair let him come and sit here. And he decided to do it.”
Reminded that the punishment for coup making was death and he could have put Babangida on trial, Buhari told TheCable: “Yes. Remember how many people he killed subsequently for trying to overthrow him? But when I came in, there was no bloodshed. I think a couple of policemen were killed and [Brigadier Ibrahim] Bako also died in an ambush.
“But deliberately, nobody was killed. I was in the
front, the real front in the Nigerian civil war. I had seen enough of death and I know what God means by human life. Any human being, God values their life. And anybody who hopes to meet God, he should be careful about killing.
“When there is law and due process of law took place, the question is clear. Like the cocaine convicts that were executed, the decision was taken in supreme military council.”


http://www.punchng.com/news/i-know-babangida-was-planning-to-overthrow-me-buhari/

His 'senseless & useless' followers claim he knew nothing about the coup that brought him into power in 1983 yet he brags about it being DELIBERATELY bloodless due to his own civil war front experience

This old soldier must think we are just as clueless & daft as he is.

Dreambeat:
@Op,I wish your mum soonest recovery.On a different note,what you saw was not peculiar to the hospital you mentioned but cuts across all the tertiary health institutions across the nation.This is what the NMA has been fighting to stem,the sorry state of our health institutions.Alas doctors were called different derogatory names.The citizens of this country have to stand up and do something fast otherwise things will get worse.

I thought NMA was fighting the other professionals over pay and superiority

The situation in the hospital is not unique but replicated in most of our government facilities. It boils down to staff MOTIVATION and absence of MAINTENANCE culture among ALL of us.
Why will nurses, cleaners etc not extort money from patients and visitors if they are paid on the basis of N18,000 minimum wage while a 25-year old, ATTENDED Secondary school LGA Councillor is guaranteed N300,000 salary?
Are we not the CLUELESS citizens bragging about how much IGR our state governors raised from our wallets, pockets, bags and handbags rather than be CONCERNED about whether services, utilities, infrastructure etc have also improved by as MANY times Just as an example, Lagos IGR has increased 34 times from 1999 to 2013 but has government performance all over the state also improved 34 times?

When was the last time we [anyone of us] repainted/refurbished/renovated our shop/office/house
We all need to have our heads examined

Great initiative about the odourless and quality control (for others?)
Hope business is good.

berem:
Shut up and don't ask me foolish question!

You should not make foolish statements if you don't want foolish follow up questions.
QED!!!

berem:
Seriously?

No one should blame the Nigeria soldiers for fleeing the war zone.

Are his family members civilians or soldiers

waterhouse071:
Of what benefit is the position of the speaker to the SW at this eleventh hour? When about 90% of the tenure has been used. SW deserves more than political crumbs.

Please tell us what SW deserves that is not political crumbs from Niger Delta oil revenue
We dey wait oh!

I'm in enugu now along fire service road,I just saw a train pass not more than an hour now. We had to stop for the train to pass.

Enugu to ph is still undergoing minor rehabilitation and I know this because me and my cousin were subcontractors to Esser the Turkish company handling the project.

Though some of the railway workers complain about the Turks, saying that the contract should've been given to the Chinese.

Thanks for your eye witness report although I am sure the naysayers, who may not necessarily be called Thomas, won't stop doubting. Maybe dem go believe when dem hear sey train jam motor for the area

May your hustle be highly rewarding- Amen!

ISpiksDaTroof:
Not Nigeria. Nigeria doesn't know how to evolve with the times. Nigeria has perfected the art of staying stuck in the past.

Yes oh!
That's why our best candidate to CHANGE our country at the federal level is an old soldier who demolished our democratic institutions over three decades ago and ruled as a maximum DICTATOR, flogging his 'senseless & clueless' fellow citizens into discipline.

For sure, we are stuck in the past.

Soloter:
My friend, if Rotimi had defrauded his state, pdp would've roped him in by now.

And what is the state house of assembly there for
How many state governors will be roped in without people shouting VICTIMISATION? That was how General Bully_Aminu of Ota did not build our independent democratic INSTITUTIONS. We need to correct that anomaly!

Africa does not need great men, it needs great institutions - Barack Hussein Obama, POTUS

I wonder how much Amaechi is paying such a mod to DESTROY Seun's hardwork & reputation

Caseless:
can u 'imargin the margin'. If d gej they support had built standard hospital in SE, do u think the youngman wld have to spend that much to get d surgery done? I just cant understand those ppl and their support for gej.

I thought our state governors constitutionally RESPONSIBLE for providing adequate number of clinics and General hospitals that are properly equipped & staffed such that early diagnosis & prompt treatment is possible.
Is that not so

RICHIEBOI1:
Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State, Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwanso of Kano State, National Chairman of the APC, Chief John Odigie Oyegun, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, General Muhamadu Buhari were among dignitaries present at the event.

Is it not a paradox that the supposedly in'CORRUPTible old soldier associates with a brazen THIEF like Amaechi even as he talks carelessly about his corruption

Why do we have such clueless fools as our state governors

- You award contract for road construction and pay upfront
- The contractor obviously did not provide deed/guarantee of performance from a bank before advance was released
- Finally the contractor did not perform as stipulated in the contract within the specified time frame.
- Yet rather than institute a civil case for breach of contract to retrieve the advance you paid cluelessly plus related damages you are shouting EFCC and corruption industry
- Meanwhile your 'ignorant, backward and uncivilised' tax payers and fellow compatriots are focused on your English drama and use of 'harsh words'

Why are we such MUMUS

barcanista:
Am I the only one who is not surprise that this Thread makes it to the FP within few minutes of creation while loads of sensible ProAPC threads are detained in Politics section?

I thought this is a 'ProAPC thread'.
Is it not

akinsadeez:
Amaechi is mentioning 3 billion naira as if it is 30 thousand naira. So he gave someone 3billion naira, the person stole it and Amaechi remained silent and even still recommended the person for the position of minister. It shows they are both thieves. So if the two of them did not fall out politically, that is how Amaechi would have kept quiet about the three billion.
Chai, God save us from these polithiefcians.

Sorry, they are NOT both thieves.

One is the Chief Thief who dashes a little to his Small Thief.
Amaechi has had budgets of N500 billion annually, which is 10% of the federal budget for taking care of 36 states plus its exclusive constitutional responsibilities. Has Amaechi DELIVERED that amount of services and infrastructure to Rivers state in seven years

Our other state governors have perfected the art of hiding their MASSIVE corruption and dodging their responsibility by shouting and screaming federal government this, president that to divert our attention from the pilferage going on in their area of authority while the oversight, check & balance of state house of assembly lawmakers have been heavily compromised and can do nothing since we, the people they represent are too clueless to bother

PointB:
The rate at which APC are embracing any failed PDP members who defects make one even wonder if APC really envies PDP and what to be exactly like them. Heck, they've even courted Obj, trying to entice him with the title of Navigator! If GEJ defects to APC today, the fools and their foolish party will accept him! What then is APC about?

They are simply self-serving opportunist who want power at all cost, and will dine with the devil for it!

Nigerians should beware of these APC people, they are worse than PDP!

Professor Pius Adesanmi aptly describes the odious group in the Arewa People's Congress, APC =>

While still not hitting the pavements of Nigeria to meet with the people and sell any kind of programme and vision, they have been busy struggling to recruit and lap up the political excreta of the PDP. Sometimes they don’t even wait for the excreta to fully come out of the PDP’s anus before they put their lips to it and try to suck it out: damaged and corrupt Governors and Senators ostracized by the PDP have suddenly become top recruitment priority for APC leaders, not the Nigerian people. And these are the same clowns who went to town not too long ago saying that nothing good could ever come out of the PDP. We must therefore ask them: just what is good about these characters that you are so busy recruiting instead of changing the game from the elite paradigm in order to convince Nigerians that you are indeed worthy of being that sought-after and much-desired alternative to the vermin in the PDP?

This is from Gavi's website, they know exactly where the fault lies. www.gavi.org/Library/News/Statements/2014/Review-of-Gavi-support-to-Nigeria/

The guilty agency in bold is headed by
Dr. Ado Jimada Gana Muhammad (Hausa)
his deputy is
Adefunke Adesope (Yoruba)
Leave Chukwu out of this.

Thanks for pointing out that it was the National Primary Health Care Development Agency that was primarily responsible for the fraud.

Meanwhile does anyone know if FFK aka cramjones has refunded our Aviation fund money he stole while he was Minister

Witness confirms several deposits in Fani-Kayode’s account

A PROSECUTION witness and a legal officer with the First City Monument Bank Plc (FCMB). Mr. Elonna Ezelo yesterday told a Federal High Court Lagos, that several forms of deposits running into millions of naira were made by Femi Fani-Kayode, while he was the Minister of Aviation.

The witness, however, said there was no formal report made to any authority concerning the financial transactions by the former minister.
Fani-Kayode, is standing trial on an amended 40-count charge bordering on money laundering.
At the resumed hearing of the matter yesterday, the witness who was led in evidence by the prosecutor, Mr. Festus Keyamo, told the court that the accused first had an account with First Atlantic Bank Plc, which later transformed from First Inland Bank Plc, to Finbank Plc, and now FCMB.
He said as a legal officer of the bank, he collated all statement of account of the accused which revealed several transactions involving cash, cheques, draft and transfers.

According to the witness, there were four deposit transactions captured in the accused statement of account between July 2006 and January 2007. He gave the details as follows: N660,000, N6 million, N10. 9 million and N3.3 million.
But under cross examination by Defence Counsel, Mr. Ifedayo Adedipe (SAN), the witness told the court that no formal report was made by the bank to any authority, in relation to the statement of account of the accused.
He also told the court that the transactions in the statement of account of the accused, however, took place before he assumed office as legal officer of the bank.

He told the court that all his evidence in court was based on the information he retrieved from the computer in which the statement of account of the accused was stored.
Justice Rita Ofili-Ajumogobia has adjourned till today for continuation of trial.
Fani-Kayode was first arraigned sometime in December 2008 before Justice Ramat Mohammed on a 47-count charge. He had pleaded not guilty to the charge and Justice Mohammed had granted him bail in the sum of N200 million with two sureties in like sum.
He was again re-arraigned before Justice Binta Murtala-Nyako, following the transfer of Mohammed from the Lagos Division. Fani-Kayode was again re-arraigned before Justice Ajumogobia on February 11, 2013 after the transfer of Murtala-Nyako.
Ajumogobia is now the third judge to preside over the case in the last five years, and the charge now bears 40 counts, after the EFCC dropped seven counts out of the original 47.

In the charge, the accused was alleged to have transacted with funds exceeding the threshold allowed by the money laundering, without going through a financial institution.
He was alleged to have accepted cash payments in the tune of about N100 million, while he held sway as Minister of Aviation and Minister of Culture and Tourism.
The offence is said to contravene the provisions of Sections 15(1) (a) (b) (c) (d) and 15 (2) (a) (b) of the Money Laundering (prohibition) Act, 2004.

We should avoid falling MUGU for these PROPAGANDA merchants of LIES and distortions whose sole interest is to lay hands on licences for Niger Delta oil.

Gbawe:
Bro, it is called "chop dollar". Take the money and do the opposite of what you were paid for. Every hungry Nigerian is now tuned in to the fortune to be made praise-singing a President who is surely a candidate for worst leader in the world. Abeg, make the boys chop small before the messiah of corruption and ineptitude is kicked out.

Obviously the yorubas who endorsed the old soldier did it without any stomach infrastructure.

That was how the Arewa People's Congress, APC went to town screaming Fayose's rice distribution when Fayemi did the exact same thing and Aregbesola distributed "odourless" fufu.
