Infact Istandwithbuharirecession#hardship

They should enjoy the change o. If possible till 2023. After that the son of his late bosom friend Abacha should take over.

Since Abacha was not corrupt, his son too will not be corrupt. grin cheesy

Properties › Re: 10 Most Lucrative Cities In Nigeria For Property Investment by AreaFada2:
bettercreature:
From experience its only Lagos and Abuja anybody who has ever made profit from building and selling houses in Ibadan or other places should come out
The only way to make profit from any of other states is to sell the house before you roof it
I have a relative who made good money from real estate business in Benin. Even before Abuja was built & still does today.
Chose location well & build quality. You will sell at a decent profit. He joined Abuja property rush in the 1980s already & Lagos market but never left Benin to do business fully in those places.

Benin receives one of the highest amount of money from Diaspora outside Lagos-Ibadan axis and a few other places. And most of it goes into real estate.

Miles300:
What did he do when he was vice to improve education , as I remember those periods were periods of indefinite strikes .. They will insult the people and come back for us to elect them, is it not looted funds he used to established his schools ..?
Tor!

He was vice president for good 8 years. Yet he doesn't feel he failed his country's public school students.

He established his own university as a sitting VP. While all they did was start Open University that hardly graduates people till today & their law graduates as far as I know cannot go to Law School.

Instead of using his position & energy to serve Nigeria, he served himself.

Yet Jonathan built 12 new fed universities under 6 years and trabalists & bigots said he did nothing. shocked shocked

Silly question. Peeps like you won't stop denting Nigeria's image, with the stupid retort of "Does Nigeria have *sic* image?" You're part of the problems, ode!
Very true. No matter what those who go astray are in the minority. Yet one caught and killed is too much.
We should just be careful that innocent ones are not just framed up or made guilty by association for just being Nigerian in an often racist and bigoted world.

Goodnews

Then we may not need to borrow then

Wailers please heir your view
But how can they be returning Abacha loot?
Did Buhari not say that Abacha did not steal any money?
Was GEJ indirectly quoting Buhari when he said "stealing is not corruption?" shocked

Because Buhari's London Midland Bank loot was in the 1970s already.
Celebrities › Re: Osuofia Visits Ghana President Mahama, Says He Should Be Retained by AreaFada2: 8:40pm On Nov 18, 2016
mikeapollo:
The Ghanaians that you are speaking with are the members or supporters of the opposition.
Kuffour is the most corrupt president In Ghana's history. His corruption scandals are endless, including Wiki-leaks exposure of his ill gotten wealth stashed in the Caribbean etc. He is the only Ghanaian president in history that gave himself a national award as a sitting president.
He spent 8 years in office, did not build any new hospital, no new university, did just a few kilometers of road. Did redenomination of the Cedi but there are records or trace of where, when and how much the old currency notes was destroyed. He dubiously acquired numerous state properties unto himself and his cronies etc.

This current President Mahama has built at least 3 major hospitals, he has built a medical school for the University of Legon, built a new university, several hundreds of kilometers of roads, new secondary schools, etc All the shouts of corruption and incompetence are orchestrated by the opposition NPP for political gains because they control most of the media houses in Ghana.
Interesting. There are always several sides to a story. But I have heard that Kufuor was the first to do major projects since Nkrumah. shocked

The only suspicion I always had about complaints against Mahama is that he's a Northerner. I gleaned that from general discussion. Perceived as generally less educated. Although Mahama is a well-educated Christian Northerner.
Celebrities › Re: Osuofia Visits Ghana President Mahama, Says He Should Be Retained by AreaFada2:
Unbeliever:
But most Ghanaians i speak with everyday here wants him out. They say his administration is corrupt and he hasn't done enough.
Very true. Hardly any Ghanaian I have met has said anything good about him. Corruption, incompetent cabinet, wasting resources, poor performance are some of the things levelled against his government. They rate him way below John Kufuor.

Chieftaincy title is probably only relevant in your community or within your jurisdiction.

but pple spend at least 3 years to bet a PhD.
Perhaps. But consider Jabagan Borgu, Turaki Adamawa and others with fame. The title adds alot of verve to them.

Consider also Esama of Benin. The title added much to his respect & popularity back in the early 1970s as a successful industrialist & businessman. Nationwide & beyond. Granted, the Esama title is granted traditionally to a successful, generous/philantropic, good looking, honourable and VERY NEAT person. As he's expected to always dress to impress & is often a key Oba's emissary. Esama/Igbinedion is rarely seen not decked in his chieftaincy attire.

As for an honorary PhD, it is a pity that in 9ja we like to abuse things anyhow. It was & is never meant to be used as a prefix or title. In more civilised/developed countries, that is how it is. The right way to use it is:

Mr. Lalasticlala Python PhD (hc).
Mr. Moderator Happybanner D.Litt (hc).
Mr. Ugliestboi Funbanner, DBA (hc). Etc. cheesy grin

Never as Dr. Python or Dr. Happybanner. Because it is not an earned doctorate through research.

But go and preach that to an average title-crazy Nigerian.

No details.. just like the loan deal. .
Amazing how opaque this government is. Nothing like transparency.

Do not be surprised if none of those bills has any direct positive impact on the masses. They could all mostly be bills in Buhari's own/cabal interest or NASS' interest. Just scratching each other's back.

Congratulations to Alhaji Aliko DANGOTE.
But science is the wrong category. It should be Honorary Doctorate Degree in Economics or Business Administration.
Abi o. I was expecting DBA (hc).

Except he read for a science degree previously at a lower level. Being primarily trained in science.

Almost same as what they do with non-hereditary chieftaincy titles awarded to people these days. Like Jabagan Borgu.

Family › Re: Poor And Un-intelligent People Should Not Procreate. by AreaFada2:
My comment is rather late but... I want to still make it.

Gerard's frustration with the less well off having many kids is understandable.

Perhaps with fewer kids, giving them a better quality of most things would be easier & more affordable. Especially in a country without any social safety net.
But then again, people see wealth or affluence or comfortable living from different perspectives.

Therefore, what the govt can do is to encourage planned parenthood. Enlighten intending parents about cost of raising a child up to age 18 or 21 for example. Only a govt believed by parents to be truly caring (through solid social programs) can achieve that.

At the end of the day, eugenics or any other demographic purification/enhancement program or anything close already conceived by the likes of Adolf Hitler 80 years ago is clearly NOT appropriate.

The decision about procreation should remain with individuals in a democracy.
