Chief Ibori and his wife Nkoyo stole too. The moral of the story: Do not support thievies either big or small.

JasonScoolari:
I see some comments above begging the bank to take responsibility of the potential Lawrence Anini....

So, we should applaud a teenage thief and give him necessary support for robbing a bank? Or we should raise a GoFundMe account for him to achieve his full potential as a notorious bank robber?

By the way, is this the ROD we were told to beat our children with in the Bible?

God bless you real good for this update. You have really made my day. This was the same man that told the mammoth crown at Ojota in 2012 that fuel should actually be sold for N47/litre instead of N97/litre then. How much is it today?

stephenduru:
Minister with the highest portfolio in President Buhari's administration Babatunde Fashola told Federal Government to bring down fuel price on December 7,2014 when there was oil slump.

Politics is a game. Has any minister told Buhari to bring down fuel so far? Mehn! We are suffering. The earlier the better

What do you expect when the same judges trusted INEC figures to award the case to Buhari. only to turn around and disowned INEC figures to run Ihedioha.
These judges never learned about precedents in sharia law school.

You have said it all sir. People talk like restructuring is the silver bullet that will turn naija to Eldorado and paradise combined. Ask a person from the different zones in naija what restructuring means to them and you would get different answers. You asked the same question I always ask. What will change when the same rapacious political elite will remain in charge post- restructuring? Who will drive this so called development? The same ones that failed pre restructured Nigeria ?

Collapse of Soviet Union

1. Collapse of Communism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe (1989)
2. Détente: Cooperation between Superpowers - During the Cold War President Nixon and Brezhnez conducted SALT (Strategic Arms Limitation Talks) conferences and signed a treaty limiting the number of missiles each country can have.

3. USSR and Afghanistan Cooperation/Détente Ends • 1979-1988 • USSR backed the Afghan government; the US backed the Mujahedeen rebels • US boycotted the 1980 Olympics in Moscow • 14,000 Soviet dead; 1+million Afghans –Over 5 million Afghans fled (more than 1/3 of the population) –10-15 million land mines still in Afghanistan –Soviets withdrawal defeated
4. - Soviet economic collapse - Nationalism in Warsaw Pact countries - Tearing down of Berlin Wall - Breakup of the Soviet Union Collapse of Communism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe

5. Nationalism in Warsaw Pact Countries 1. Gorbachev’s pullout from Afghanistan and his policy of Non-Intervention gave rise and momentum to Warsaw Pact nationalism movements. 2. Soviet/Warsaw Pact countries resented Soviet control and wanted to direct their own governments.
6. Tearing Down the Berlin Wall 1. East Germany elected a more moderate Communist government, but many not satisfied; allowed people to leave East Germany 2. November 9, 1989 – the Brandenburg Gate opened and people began tearing down the wall 3. Tearing down Berlin Wall symbolized and helped lead to fall of Communism in Eastern Europe; East Germany & Czechoslovakia 4. Gorbachev and President Reagan given credit for being most responsible for the end of the Cold War

7. Ronald Reagan: U.S. President 1980-88 “Tear down this wall”
8. Brandenburg Gate Fall of the wall news broadcast
9. Soviet Economic Collapse 1. Over-spending on arms race weakened government & economy 2.Soviet leader, Mikhail Gorbachev tried to reform the USSR economy in two plans a. perestroika – restructuring of the Soviet political and economic system - Weakened Russian economy in short-term b.glasnost – “Openness” freed public access to information after decades of heavy government censorship 3. Gorbachev encouraged reform in other 15 Soviet Socialist Republics: new countries 4. Hard-line communists attempted a coup against Gorbachev – failed 5. U.S.S.R. crumbles; Gorbachev = the last leader of the USSR 6.Boris Yeltsin, with support of many who wanted continued reforms, becomes President of Russia Mikhail Gorbachev U.S.S.R. Boris Yeltsin Russia

10. Break Up of Soviet Union 1. Soviet Republics, one-by-one, broke away from Moscow and declared independence. 2. 1989-90: The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (U.S.S.R) was dead.

Nigerians didn't k to call for restructuring during OBJ & Jonathan's reign because nigeria under those intellectual men was making huge progress in all the sectors. Unlike now that is govern by a stack illiterate

EmptyCoconutHead:
@ anonimi do u always jerk off to Buhari's picture?
haven't seen this level of obsession before..
assuming u channel this your level of hatred to something positive by now you would have built a house on ur own and have something meaningful to achieve by the end of 2019.
Anyways not surprised. IPOB and bitterness go hand in hand.

The clamour for restructuring is higher now. Take it or leave it you need presidency to carry out restructuring

People are shouting restructuring like it will solve the myriads of problems we all have a people. We should all sit down and consult psychologist to help us form a collaboration with the best and world renowned Genetics doctor( whatever their numaclature called them.) To please help us study how the black race can reduce the dominant Gene in us all, the dominant genes in an average black man is selfishness. Na me go make am pass syndrom. Even if you restructure this contraception 100 times. We will keep spoiling it with our hands the more. The only solution is to cure the next generation scientifically of this cancerous greed.

After 50 years of Independence, the government of the so called disadvantaged regions ought to have done something to address the situation. You cannot continue to spoon-feed a child and expect that same child to grow, mature and be independent. A student from Abia scores 130 in the Federal Commonwealth Entrance exam, yet it's almost impossible to gain admission in the school of his choice, yet another child from Zamfara will score less than 5 and gain same admission seamlessly. How do you encourage such a child that hard work and merit pays?

Look at all the appointments the president has made so far, over 90% from the north. They are telling us they are based on merit. My question is how comes, when it comes to appointment, they are hiding under merit to appoint only their own, but when it comes to exams and admission into Federal institutions, they bring in Federal character. I'm an advocate of merit, hardwork, transparency, objectivity and emperical selection process. That way you encourage everybody to work hard for whatever he/she wants. After all, the Bible says, "he who does not work, let him not eat". It's against natural and spiritual justice and principle to take from those who work and give to those who don't work. That in itself is the root of corruption Nigeria. I support the President's fight against corruption.

I advocate the enthronement of merit and objectivity in our national life. So, Mr. President, if you are serious about your anti-corruption mantra, If you are serious about this your new "merit" policy, let's go back to the basis. Start by eliminating all forms of quota system and federal character in the admission process into Unity schools, Federal universities and recruitment/employment into all federal civil service, agencies, parastatals and let's see who will be qualified. That's my humble submission.

And is skunk FFK the new spokesman of Southern Nigeria?

seunmsg:
FFK the drug addict is speaking for himself. The south wants presidency and we will get it back in 2023. Southern President is not an obstacle to restructuring. In fact, the chances of restructuring Nigeria is brighter when a southerner is the president.

Southern bastards like FFK are only playing the script of Atiku and their northern paymasters. APC will take the presidency back to the south in 2023 according to the already established rotation of power and there is nothing anybody can do about it.

the Point is how many people believe in this restructuring of a thing?
Before I listen to the message I'll definitely want to know if the messenger is someone who is honorable and someone who have dignity.
We can do our own thing by speaking out and not associating with people who have no moral standing and no basis to even condemn this government.

El-Rufai - It's Time to Restructure Nation
10 AUGUST 2010

For Nigeria to move to the next level, the issue of true federalism must be addressed, according to former FCT Minister, Malam Nasir El-Rufai. He shares his thoughts with Imam Imam.

Apprehension about the composition and workability of the Nigerian nation-state will subside if the country tilts towards true federalism, according to former FCT Minister, Malam Nasir El-Rufai. He said the present situation of things where all the component units get monthly allocations from the Federal Government only makes the states lazy and unproductive, adding that lack of foresight, financial discipline and lackadaisical approach to governance has played huge roles in limiting the country's march to greatness.

Many Of Those Calling For Restructuring Are Opportunists, Irresponsible – El-Rufai

The Kaduna State Governor, El-Rufai has described recent calls for the restructuring of Nigeria as political opportunism and irresponsibility.

El-Rufai, while speaking on Channels TV’s Sunrise Daily said President Buhari’s administration has done far more in practical terms than past administrations and that many of those calling for a restructuring rather see it as a means of opportunism.

He stated that some of the practical steps taken towards restructuring included the fact that state governors are now more than ever, involved in economic policy making at the national level.

According to him, things that have always been hidden from state governments are now much more open as they are now more involved in investigations of finances of the excess crude account, among other things.

“We meet every month under the auspice of the National Economic Council and working together with the Federal Government we chart directions of economic policy and that is part of shifting the federal- state balance.

“A lot of the talk about political restructuring is political opportunism and irresponsibility in my opinion

“It is popular and people that have presidential aspirations think there is a platform upon which they will exploit this. As I said, if you look at the APC manifesto, all the elements to divulge power to the state to change the balance in the federation are there and we are committed to that as a party.

“The National Chairman of our party will restate that commitment and we are discussing it and as I said President Buhari and Osinbajo’s government has taken very concrete steps rather than rhetoric to actually move in that direction and we are going to move in that direction but we do not believe that the basis for it is rhetoric and opportunism, we do not believe that the 2014 CONFAB report is a sensible basis to even begin.

“We all know the circumstances in which the so-called CONFAB was put together, we all know the composition, how lopsided it was, how important stakeholders were not taken to account, how even the composition and numbers do not reflect the demographics and the diversity of this country and we took a position as a party not to participate but to encourage our state governors to be there at the table.”

I still don't get the double standard that sexylassie is talking about here. Or was there at any point in time that a guy refused to pay and we all were like... Hey guys, he's a guy, lets not call him out ?

In as much as I don't like the way AngryIgboMan lays his cards on the table, I can swear with my left ball that if he was the one that reported that scammer to her parent, he will own it up.

I still can't understand why most insults you get on this UBER/BOLT work are from people who are not into legit. Like Yahoo boys and Oloshos. My my my... those set of people can frustrate you in the line of duty.
