Praxis758: Are writing materials now too costly that he can’t write letters like before?
Maybe he is afraid of his daughter replying him, as she did when the ingrate of a father wrote his useless letter to Jonathan, the candidate for the party that rehabilitated him and made him president after his narrow escape from Abacha’s prison death squad.
Iyabo Obasanjo writes father, says: ‘Dear Daddy, you don’t own Nigeria
December 18, 2013
In what is turning out to be a season of open letters, daughter of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Iyabo, has ruled out further communication with her father till death, describing him as a liar, manipulator, two-faced hypocrite determined to foist on President Goodluck Jonathan what no one would contemplate with him as president.
Senator Iyabo Obasanjo in a letter to her father accused him of having an egoistic craving for power and living a life where only men of low esteem and intellect thrive.
In the 11-page letter dated December 16, 2013 exclusively obtained by Vanguard, Iyabo accused her father of orchestrating a third term for himself as president, cruelty to family members, abandonment of children and grandchildren, and also, a legendary reputation of maltreatment of women.
Iyabo who forswore further political engagements in Nigeria denied any political motive for her missive, and described Nigeria as a country where her father and his ilk have helped to create a situation where smart, capable people bend down to imbeciles to survive. She particularly noted her experience as chairman of the Senate Committee on Health when she led the committee on a retreat appropriated for in the budget only for her to be prosecuted for it.
Iyabo, first child of the former president, started the letter titled, Open Letter to my Father with a 4th century Chinese proverb by Mencius which states: “The great man is he who does not lose his child’s heart.”
Her letter:
“It brings me no joy to have to write this but since you started this trend of open letters I thought I would follow suit since you don’t listen to anyone anyway. The only way to reach you may be to make the public aware of some things. As a child well brought up by my long-suffering mother in Yoruba tradition, I have been reluctant to tell the truth about you but as it seems you still continue to delude yourself about the kind of person you are and I think for posterity’s sake it is time to set the records straight.
Is that what made him tear PDP’s card and endorse a clueless candidate for president? PDP that made him president from prison?
Baba Iyabo should STFU instead of fcvking up with our intelligence.
citizenisb: Former President Olusegun Obasanjo says President Muhammadu Buhari may not do well in economy and foreign affairs, except in military matters.
“Buhari is not a very hot person on the economy and foreign affairs,” Obasanjo said.
The former President stated this on Monday at the third International Conference on African Development Issues — themed, “Driving inclusive and sustainable development in Africa: Models, methods and policies” — organised by Covenant University, Ota, Ogun State.
While reacting to a question posed to him by a member of the audience: “Is there any hope for Nigeria under the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari?”, Obasanjo replied, “Is there any hope for Nigeria under this administration? I came back from Geneva, Switzerland a few days ago to attend a conference titled, ‘Are elections giving democracy a bad name?’ We had an election, we elected a leader and the good thing about democracy is that the power you have to elect a leader is also the power you have to remove him. I am saying this because I said earlier that if you don’t see any leader that has done well in the 56 years of Nigeria’s independence, then let us forget about Nigeria.
“I will tell you what I know and I will tell you what I don’t know. I know Gen. Muhammadu Buhari. He served under me in the military. His characteristics that I know, his behaviour that I know, he has not deviated from them. He was never a perfect man, he is not a perfect man and no leader can ever be a perfect man because they are human beings. But if you read my book, what I said about him is correct. He is not a hot person when it comes to economy. He is not a very hot person when it comes to foreign affairs. But he will do well in matters of military and he will do well in fighting Boko Haram.”

Racoon: Festus Keyamo Defends Tinubu From Drug Trafficking, Says Tinubu Mistakenly Shared Flats With Drug Lords
The Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Mr Festus Keyamo, has distanced the All Progressive Congress presidential candidata, Bola Tinubu, from being a drug baron who was involved in the traffic of narcotics in the United States.
Keyamo, who also doubles as APC Presidential Campaign spokesperson, noted that the former governor of Lagos State only shared a block of flat with drug barons about 30 years ago in the US.
His reaction is coming following documents of a Chicago District Court indicting and convicting Tinubu of drug dealings and money laundering in 1993.
The document which emerged online two days ago, described APC standard-bearer as a drug baron, adding that Tinubu entered a plea bargain, leading to the forfeiture of his assets to US authorities in 1993
It was also pointed out that Tinubu forfeited the sum of $460, 000 dollars in his bank account at First Heritage Bank to the US government.
Speaking on Wednesday on Channels TV, Mr Keyamo dismissed such claims, insisting that Tinubu was linked to drug peddlers who were his neighbours.
He said: “What happened was that Tinubu went to open an account. The address which he used in opening the account was the address used by these people. I think some blocks of flats. Maybe, he was happy to be in that block of flats too.
“So, they now link it that the other people they were investigating for narcotics are in the same address used by Asiwaju to open that account.’’
santaclaws: So you can't help people around you because you don't collect tithes? Shey opolo 🧠 wa lori e sha? 🙄
Ti kii bá ṣe wípé sawdust ni ó fi ṣe ọpọlọ, you will know that the thread is about Adeboye doing restitution for the tithes he wrongfully took from the masses suffering for the ebilokan turn of Tinubu continuing APC shege.
santaclaws: What have you also done to help people around you? Keep waiting for the church, don't face the government, maybe na church you dey pay your tax to.
Is he collecting taxes or tithes from the people like Adeboye?

trutharena: The subsidy removal was a necessary decision.
Was it not necessary in 2012, when Tinubu, Fayemi and other APC leaders used Pastor Tunde Bakare to play politics with the destiny and economic welfare of 200 million Nigerians?
Bakare who lost an election as Buhari’s running mate in CPC against Jonathan less than a year earlier. Lost the election because Tinubu said that Buhari is expired, compared to ACN’s Nuhu Ribadu and Fola Adeola.
Omooba77: …says Nigeria experienced economic development during Jonathan’s administration
A former Governor of Ekiti State, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, on Tuesday, said the protest that trailed the fuel subsidy removal during the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan in 2012 was due to political interests.
Fayemi said this in his keynote address delivered at a national dialogue organised to celebrate the 60th birthday celebration of the founding National Secretary of Alliance for Democracy and Fellow, Abuja School of Social and Political Thought, Professor Udenta Udenta in Abuja.
The programme was attended by Jonathan, former Minister of Education, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili; former Minister of Aviation, Osita Chidoka, among others.
The PUNCH reports that on January 1, 2012, President Goodluck announced the removal of fuel subsidy and adjusted the pump price of petrol from N65 per litre to N141.
The decision sparked mass protests, tagged ‘Occupy Nigeria’ across major cities of the country.
The price was later re-adjusted to N97, after more than a week of protests.
Petrol price was later reduced to N87 in 2015.
Jonathan faced serious backlash for the fuel price adjustment, especially from leaders of the All Progressives Congress, who were then in different opposition parties, including the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria, Congress for Progressives Congress, All Nigeria Peoples Party, and All Progressive Grand Alliance.

Beremx: It is well o! I'm tired of talking about Tinubu's government. Ulcer and high blood pressure is on the rise in Nigeria because of Tinubu.
I no talk again. We're waiting for 2027. That's all
If PDP is not united, with a strong candidate and a focused campaign for returning prosperity instead of APC poverty, we will endure another four years of APC clueless leadership and shege.
hedonido: As bad as a military takeover would be, these kinds of irritating bastards make it a comparatively much more palatable alternative.
I can't stand all of this arrogant madness by so many of these clowns, all in the name of 'politics'. It is suffocating the very air I breathe and driving me nuts.
Hohaiiiode: without strong institutions and flagrant disregard for rule of law military take over is inevitable, is not matter of if, but when! This guys are over doing and seems to lack a direction of driving this country . Plus the almighty suffering. I won’t say the worse democratic rule is better than the best military dictatorship. Because that is just a cute line to put the people in place , more of a psyop!
How much of your own money, time and other resources do you contribute to the political and governance processes for it to be the way you want it to be The processes at your local, state and federal levels!
If you have balls, why don't you lead the army to do your takeover? Was it not undisciplined soldiers like Nzeogwu, who opened the door for other coupists and military dictators like Buhari and Obasanjo to ruin our country? How does Pakistan and its military dictatorship history compare with India, its more complex neighbour who did not have military ruiners in its history? Did we not recycle Obasanjo and Buhari for 16 years out of the 24 years of our return to democracy, for what gain?
It takes a hopeless, helpless and mentally lazy urchin to wish that his right to be a part of the governance process be taken away by the military. Are you such a person
Lanruze: Mrs. Remi Tinubu has consistently shown that she is a person with penchant to always make infuriating statements.
I will advise her publicist and handlers to better prepare her speeches and formal conversation for her before she makes public statements.
The first lady had better watch her mouth through spoken words as most of her comments are directly insensitive like her saying her husband is not the cause of Nigerians problem.
PBAT is leading one of the worst Government since Nigeria recorded history. At the pace Asiwaju is running, the country will be wiped off the African Map with hunger, strife and despondency by the end of 2027.
No light at the end of the tunnel, no baby steps just T- Pain.
How can you see light at the end of their TOILET?
They use their words deliberately in a coded way. Was that not how Tinubu sold Buhari as APC change when he actually meant shege, which he is continuing as ebilokan turn
Also, has anyone noticed that there's always a war for BBC, CNN and Al-Jazeera to capture?
Is there anytime these foreign newsblogs don't capture wars ?..
Who's creating these wars?
Very soon, when they're done with enjoying the resources from Africa, they will ensure that Africa fight itself to death.
Are you suggesting that we Africans are brainless robots, whose remote control is with the war creators?
Who created the wars in Europe for hundreds of years, including WWII that ended less than 80 years ago, killing tens of millions? Who created the war of independence in America that lasted several years? And their civil war over slavery?
How does being irresponsible, blame shifting people ever WORK hard to fix their issues
BeeBeeOoh: The First Lady of Nigeria, Oluremi Tinubu, has urged Nigerian youths to be hard-working, saying, “There is no food for lazy man.”
Mrs Tinubu said this during a courtesy visit to the palace of Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, in Ile-Ife, Osun State, on Thursday.
She noted that while the Tinubu-led administration is working hard to provide sustainable solutions to the current challenges facing the country, Nigerians should also work hard to provide for themselves.
The first lady maintained that the government will do all it takes to ensure that Nigerians are not disappointed and called for patience with Tinubu’s administration.
Mrs Tinubu said: “There is no food for the lazy man; even God worked for six days and rested on the seventh day.
“Nigeria is a land that’s flowing with milk and honey, but we need to sustain it for generations to come.
“God has richly blessed my family before getting to the presidency and we are content with what we have.
“What is happening in the country, we are just two years into our administration, we are not the cause of the current situation. We are trying to fix and secure the future.
“I have embarked on several journeys but it seems that people are not seeing what God is doing in the land. Nations across the globe want to do business with us, legally, on the table. There is a government in power now that they know it is accountable.
“We are trying all our efforts to ensure that the economy is stabilised and the masses are living meaningful lives since the removal of fuel subsidy.”
Ikaeniyan0: Tinubu, Remi and Akpabio don't seem to know what millions of Nigerians are facing on the street. Millions of Nigerians are struggling dut to Tinubu's badly run policies, he does not even have an idea when this hardship he has unleash on Nigerians will end.
They know and that is why they are sharing loaves of bread and cups of rice as palliative to the masses.
Glimpsetv: A large crowd of Lagosians was filmed in a long queue struggling to collect a loaf of bread. To maintain order, several military personnel were on the ground to control the crowd. This has triggered a lot of reactions online.

NairalandForumo: That's the problem, is not better we divide and stop the tribal and religious supremacy?
What did your own senator, representative and state lawmaker tell you when you asked them to include this in the 6th amendment to the 1999 constitution under discussion
Many NIgerians have one ideology....that if we can just stop corruption everything would be all right.
The hard truth is that corruption is just one of our problems. Our real problem is that a nation of 260 million people is sharing an income that is less than what Spain spends for healthcare...and Spain is regarded as one of Europe's 'bad' economies.
If we split the country, the same people will demand for good schools, hospitals, cheap fuel, and so forth, on impossibly low incomes, and call those who point out that fact corrupt and demonic.
Till we are ready to face reality, we are not fit to be divided into countries, or even to sustain this one.
Why does Tinubu forget this Spain healthcare analysis when he buys billions jet, yacht, Escalade and travels without paying back the costs? Do you know why your sinator and representaThief forgot about Spain healthcare spend when they bought SUVs?
Till you are ready to face reality of misplaced aggression, you are not fit to open your mouth to vomit balablu nonsense.

Obi also hinted at contesting for the country’s number one position in 2027, adding that Nigeria deserves dedicated and visionary leaders who will lead the country towards a brighter future.

BarrNosaEsq: I try to help as I can, it's not easy out there. I blame our balls less military for all this I swear. When the army was army, Tinubu cup for don overflow since that time wey him buy that jet, or even recently when his garrulous wife dashed out 1 Billion Naira for landscaping a University. Not for books, not for upgrades, not for equipments, but for landscaping. At the moment, it's safe to say that we don't have a military because dumb leaders have been toppled for way less than this!
You should blame your clueless charity for making it difficult for the people to revolt and be more engaged in the political process to ensure their local, state and federal public servants in the legislative and executive branches hire and pay workers appropriately to carry out all their functions with the masses' commonwealth.
If you have balls, why don't you lead the army to do your toppling?

author=aduboy post=16297598]Anambra distributes 177 vehicles to traditional rulers Posted by NAN Governor Peter Obi of Anambra State, on Monday in Awka, distributed one SUV each to the traditional rulers of the 177 communities in the state.
Obi handed over one of the vehicles’ key to the state Chairman of the Traditional Rulers’ Council, Igwe Alfred Achebe, Obi of Onitsha.
He said that the gesture was aimed at helping them run and build better communities, adding that the vehicles would also help the traditional rulers to function effectively.
“If you have better communities, you will have a better Anambra, Anambra today is changing for better and I want this sustained,” the governor said.
“In doing that, the state government and the local government will do what it can to support the building of a better Anambra.”
Achebe said that he was overjoyed because the governor cared about the well-being and welfare of the traditional rulers.
“It is completely unprecedented in Anambra and probably elsewhere in Nigeria,” he said.
“It is a mighty gesture from the governor and for the government of the state to make a distinct impact on the well-being of the traditional rulers in the state.”
According to him, it was one of the several measures the present administration in the state had taken to improve the wellbeing of the traditional rulers.
“We pray that God will give us a successor that will continue from where Obi has left and lift Anambra to the next level.”
mrvitalis: Everyone knows that's the only solution Obi said he would borrow 12 billion dollars that he had the connections
The Koko is what you use the borrowed money to do
APC from Buhari to Tinubu now keep borrowing to build infrastructure with the hope that the infrastructure would kick start development
Not only are the infrastructure over inflated they are sighted wrongly so can't even breakeven
So they just increase our debt service, increase recurrent expenditure and have absolutely no increase in revenue
Obi solution is to borrow money
Give it to the people, support business especially in export potential business and import substitutes
1) you create employment 2) you boost revenue, as this businesses come for the needed loan you capture them into the tax net 3) you don't increase debt service per say as the people would pay back the loan
This can kick start a chain of events that kick start the economy
OBi and Tinubu are not the same
Is that how he gave Anambra money to his family beer business, then hid money in Pandora papers and properties as well? Obi is just an intelligent SOUNDING clown that excites those who can't recall every relevant detail about him. A bloody scammer and 419er is who he is.
SATANICALLY: In a 2018 interview, Peter Obi said he invested $20 million in International Breweries on behalf of Anambra state as a governor.
Obi’s claim was in response to questions on economic development, Anambra politics and his presidential ambition.
“… Anambra state is the single-highest shareholder in that facility. I invested in it, over $20 million,” Obi had said.
“It is worth almost $100 [million] today. That’s what government should do.”
TheCable had previously fact-checked some of the claims.
Chukwuma Soludo, governor of Anambra, also debunked a recent statement ascribed to him regarding the investment.
International Breweries (IB) Plc is a subsidiary of the world’s largest brewer, Anheuser-Busch InBev (AB InBev) — a multinational drink and brewing giant based in Leuven, Belgium.
In its 2021 audited financial statement, the company said it holds 43 percent economic interest in International Breweries Plc, a publicly listed company in Nigeria.
According to a report by The Nation, AB InBev merged its Nigerian operations under a single corporate entity in 2017. It had three indirect Nigerian subsidiaries — International Breweries Plc, Intafact Beverages Limited and Pabod Breweries Limited. SABMiller Nigeria Holdings BV — another subsidiary of AB InBev — was also a major stakeholder in Intafact and Pabod.
ANAMBRA’S INVESTMENT
In a statement made available to TheCable on Tuesday, Ifeatu Onejeme, Anambra’s commissioner of finance, confirmed that Peter Obi’s administration invested the sum of N1,955,535,247.00 (an equivalent of approximately $12,616,356.43 at the then average CBN exchange rate of N155.00/$1) in Intafact Beverages Limited, a green-field brewery set up in Onitsha by SABMiller Breweries of South Africa in 2012.
Onejeme added that the state government still holds 407,321,264 ordinary shares of International Breweries Plc in exchange for the Intafact Beverages Limited investment.
“Based on the NGX closing price of N5.50 as of 20/6/22, these shares were valued at N2,240,266,952 on that date,” the statement reads in part.
“Based on the Central Bank of Nigeria I&E exchange rate of N415.75/US$1.00 on same June 20, 2022, this investment was valued at an equivalent of approximately US$5,388,495.37 (and at N604/$1.00 parallel market rate, only US$3,709,051.24).”
iLegendd: I prefer some Asian countries over the West. They uphold most of African values while being more developed, organized and law abiding than Nigeria.
But, I love Nigeria for some reasons. You can evade tax easily here and I have access to real natural food unlike abroad where I had to buy everything and some are even GMOs.
Coupled with the free light in my region, good weather and close to zero natural disaster except flooding and road accident.
We are blessed in Nigeria, na just leadership and lawlessness spoil everything.
What kind of leadership are you providing by evading taxes? Is that how to be a law abiding citizen of our country and continent?
Why are you such a hypocrite on every issue, as budaatum pointed out
You have boxed yourself into a corner, now you are looking for a way out.
Let's go back to the basic. Starting from your quote I commented on.
This is your quote.
By uniting around and working with the viable opposition to provide a formidable alternative?
Abi how else will we save ourselves from Tinubu's kleptomaniac incompetent
I responded by saying , elections need to be free and fair for your assertions above to work. Meaning even if all the oppositions parties unite as you said, without a free and fair election. Tinubu cannot be unseated.
So where don't you understand?
What is there to understand in your avoidance of responsibility

Judge hands out prison time in Enron barge scam
Ex-Enron, Merrill execs sentenced. A repentant Boyle gets nearly four years for his involvement in barge scandal
May 13, 2005
Former Enron executive Dan Boyle was sentenced to nearly four years in prison Thursday, while Robert Furst and William Fuhs, both former Merrill Lynch bankers, received more than three years — all for their roles in the Enron Nigerian barge scam.
Boyle, sentenced to three years and 10 months in prison and fined $320,000, was the only one who appeared repentant about pushing through a sham sale of energy-generating barges to the bank so Enron could pump its earnings and bolster its stock price.
"I'm the only one responsible for my actions and omissions and for the pain I caused each and every person I affected," the Clear Lake resident told the judge. "I'm truly sorry."
