The rate at which false stories are manufactured regarding Buhari and his administration is amazing. It's early days yet and we've had enough falsehood to last the entire year.

aresa:
That's from the DSS itself. Read and comprehend... The president and commander in chief tells them what to do...

Yes the President calls the shots not his ADC.

The ADC should stand down and let the DSS carry out its constitutionally prescribed responsibility.

Igbere TV?

bosteps:
I wouldn't blame PMB if this directive originated from him. If I were him I wouldn't feel comfortable with DSS men so close to me considering the obvious bias the DSS leadership has shown towards the APC during the build up to the last elections. We are talking about trust issues here!

Really? Trust issues? How about all the allegations from Buhari and APC that the military was partisan. Remember the certificate saga? How are they now to be trusted over the DSS?

Wildrage:
The headline read " DSS screen Amaechi as the ad secretary to the fed govt" and in the second to the last paragraph, we are told that "Barely (sic) any last minute development, Amaechi will be announced as the NEW CHIEF OF STAFF to the fed govt"

Now how do we reconcile the two? I think someone needs a psychiatrist. They just wake up from their troubled sleep and start disseminating poo to the public

Didn't you get the memo? Bloggers are now on the offensive o. Their objective is mass capture the casualties are intelligence and logic.

Nigeria Intelligence Agency NIA

Lol. I had rushed to answer his question before seeing yours. Correct.

tolulope855:
You're not really ready to learn..... Tell me what other Agency majors on investigation and gathering of intels in Nigeria.

The National Intelligence Agency head quartered in Asokoro Abuja.

It may interest you to know as far as airplanes go, they have this 747 and a Backup summing up to 2 planes for a developed nation like the US. Kindly explain what your country currently does with about 10..

Not trying to justify Nigeria's presidential fleet of 10 but do you know that the cost of maintenance and operation of the Airforce One far outstrips Nigeria's 10?

ohimai83:
Its a new plane that has replaced the old airforce one plane. e.g is Buhari not the new president of Nigeria?

When was this replacement done? Where did you hear about it?

ocelot2006:
ABSOLUTE BULLCRAP!! What rubbish is this?! And you're here exposing the identities of DSS agents?

The agents mentioned are already well known and not linked to any covert operations. You are right though this is still bullcrap, the allegations are made without concrete evidence and appear to becoming from a position of political vindictiveness. Thats why this action by Buhari, if it is indeed based on any of these, is all the more petty and foolish.

Ofunaofu:
the DSS as we all know has basterdised and can't be trusted. Have you forgotten the role they played before the election to extend they turned themselves to an arm of the pdp

Wasn't the military also accused of being partisan during the run up to the elections? We all remember vividly how APC accused the military of colluding with the then ruling party during Buhari's certificate saga and how similar allegations were flying from APC when the military adviced for the elections to be postponed.

In the light of this what then is the justification for sidelining the DSS? If this is some kind of punitive measure for what allegedly happened during the elections then this new administration is being outrightly petty and silly.

I will however hold out hope that Buhari and his team are privy to some critical national security developements that necessitate this move and are not just playing a political game of reward and punish.

i see people here arguing abt kendrick lamar, the dude is good, but i still think hes overhyped, he is doing wats trending nowadays , ie realease hits , but face it, his songs cant stand the test of time, i can bet u that his album wont trend for more than a year, same with iggy azalea,
the music industry of now is not like the 90s,

i remember 50cents 'many men', that track still bangs in my head, i was born in the late 90s, so im kinda not familiar with all those old schl rappers,

but u gotta give it to 50 cent and jigga !
their old schl tracks still bang in my head !

no doubt, kendrick lamar is good at story telling, but hes still not got that sick flow !
most pple are judging from his last album (tpab)

go and listen to the one before that ,good kid mad city . and compare
.
personally, i think Drake is better,
if u listen to his last album (if u are reading this its too late) that album is the ish mhen.
.
all kendrick lamar did on his last album was tell stories !

Drake adressed a lot of issues on his own album,

whew,

Well that's just like your opinion man.

I find it strange that you compare Kendrick and 50 or rate Drake higher than Kendrick. Very strange, but then again you admit to being one of them youngins so I guess we'll cut you some slack. Granted that his TPAB album was sort of a let down because of its eclectic and unconventional approach but his previous works GKMC and Section 80 were instant classics the source of renewed hope that west coast rap isn't dead after all. For that alone he will be highly revered and mentioned whenever contemporary hip hop greats are sought.

What exactly is the grouse between the Presidency and the DSS?

Airforce One is not a new plane, it's been in existence for many years. Why is the OP referring to it as "this new plane"?

babardos70:
Can somebody name the investment USA and UK has in Nigeria. BUHARI should go to CHINA, INDIA, SINGAPORE and RUSSIA who are ready to invest their physical cash in Nigeria and create employment and not people that creates WAR up and down. Even almost all UK companies have been bought by Germany, India and china. ROLLS ROYCE is gone, Jargua Land Rover is gone and all of there other companies are already privatised. They can only sell Arms. That is why they create WAR all over the WORLD.
Imagine in this 21st century UK doesn't have high speed rail and they still contemplating of building one for 2030. while JAPAN is already using the Bullet type which ir regarded as the fastest in the WORLD. UK and US does not have anything to offer Nigeria.
If not for Electricity and security, American and USA are not better than Nigeria.

A few American companies in Nigeria:

Mobil
Chevron
Baker Hughes
KFC
Microsoft
Oracle
Google
General Electric

... And British companies
Royal Dutch Shell. ( partly british)
British American Tobacco (partly British)
British Gas

I named these companies right from memory without consulting any references . I'm sure there are many many more if I bother to look them up.

Obviously you don't know what you are talking about when you ask what interests do these countries have in Nigeria. Those companies not only collectively employ thousands of Nigerians but pay a significant amount of tax that constitutes the source of revenue for the Nigerian government. The UK and the US are currently one of Nigeria's largest trading partners with financial commitments that run into billions of dollars.

You have succeeded in displaying an abysmal level of ignorance publicly just because of the juvenile desire to criticise.

This report will soon be debunked or denied.

PassingShot:
Seriously, many people on this forum need to go back to school and get quality education.

So, the fact that PMB may have indeed met "virtually empty treasury" now translates to no money to run the country?

Learn to put words into contextual meaning. "Virtually empty" may actually mean far less than what was expected.

And the fact that Nigeria has earned more money every blessed day since May 29 is enough to have money to share again.

Trying to spin that statement into relevance eh? The facts available show that for some reason the president misspoke. Accept it and move on, don't dig a deeper hole than necessary.

Well election promises must be kept.

It is highly imperative that reports of this nature be accompanied with photographic evidence. Unless stills of the esteemed law makers engaged in mortal combat are provided little or no credence will be given to this story.

Nobody has noticed the rather sensationalist headline of this story. Has it has been proven conclusively that Jonathan personally stole "billions" or is this just fodder for beer parlour rants?

Laughed my head off when I saw that line. The guy must be a stand up comic.

Which school did you go to?
Gej inherited a $60b [/b]and $29b as external res and excess crude acct..and [b]trout gej tenor,oil sales had been $100 and above withthe almost zero debt.

PMD inherited $29b as external res which cannot be touched and zero excess crude acct.Oil is now $60 with a heavy foreign debt..,so what GMB said is true.

This Nairaland is a house of comedy. See someone who obviously has problems spelling simple words asking what school another went to.

olapluto:
DSS is being dealt with by Buhari. The general is reviving Nigerian armed forces. I wont be surprised if NSCDC becomes more important than DSS. Marilyn Ogar will soon be posted to NSCDC Rivers state. Wike can have someone to work with.

Let's assume that this is true. You imagine that the country will be better off by sidelining it's apex intelligence agency?

You people better do away with this pedestrian attitude of castigating (or championing) anything that hampers (or furthers) your party objectives. You only see things through the myopic lens of partisanship while the big picture dimmed in the background. Weak.

Just as T.A Orji, the former governor of Abia, empowered youths with tricycles.

These governors are jokers.
