M0GIDI: I agree with some of the @OP's sentiments but strongly disagree on their source of funding. [s] My own research tells me boko haram rely on their founding fathers for funding.
As you already know Buhari founded this movement to checkmate the FG, he gets his funding from other Islamist fundamentalist around the world.

Don't be deceived, the only mineral the North has looks more like 7UP, there's nothing in that barren land, why do you think they panic whenever the issue of dissolution is discussed? [/s]

Mogidi,

When you go get sense?

BlackTechnology: Did you listern to the Confab

The North opposed a higher derivation % placed on solid minerals. It was after much argument by Southerners did they accept 5% instead of 18% as proposed by Southerners.

I never took the confab serious....

All I know right now is that the FG has all the power to explore available resources and NOBODY can stop it....

How many times have they "branded" Gen. Buhari bh sponsor but he remains unshaken due to his pure conscience!

Sheriff should wipe his crocodile tears and tell us what he knows about Boko haram....... Shikenan!

BlackTechnology: Unknown to many Nigerians, Northern elites sought to achieve what their SS counterpart accomplished through political armed thug without realising that their foot soldiers will metamorphosed into such a state


FACT IS

Just as the SS armed group metamorphosed into a group that could finance its operations without political support but through oil bunkering,

Boko Haram might be funding their operations through illegal mining of a precious mineral unknown to the FG due to North's attitude of not wanting to share their resources with the federation by keeping their minerals deposits secret


Its time the secret service stop repeating the same mistake of pointing fingers as they foolishly pointed towards SS politicians and Ojukwu during the ND militancy days and start spying our neighbours and Nigerians to see if any businessman or company is selling our minerals at a lower price when compared to international price.

To understand my view, pls watch the movies blood diamond and oil & blood(Nigerian movie on oil bunkering)

I find the part in bold absolutely ridiculous.

Agreed, there are lots of mining feilds in the north which have not been explored by the government due to its negligence, and outright failure, but why should this theory of yours just come up NOW when the Top sponsors are about to be unravelled?

Shekau will get same support and loyalty from Ibos as GEJ if he were President.

Yomieluv: Being stup1d in Nigeria is confused as being patriotic.

I see no reason where an individual would support incompetence all in the name of supporting a leader,who probably belong to his party,or tribe.

Op,you are right,you are being realistic,not some bootlickers who are diehard supporter of incompetence.

It is even more baffling when most of the supporters of this failed govt are poverty striken and in a pitiable living condition.

"He, however, gave a ray of hope on possible reconciliation between the duo, saying works were on to readopt the governor back into the “fold”, saying “he is one of us.”

This addlebrained senile old man has been GEJ's tutor on ethnic and religious division which the foolish president has mastered.

He thinks it right to reconcile with Amaechi who is "one of them" but throw insults at Lamido who is an "enemy"....and the eediots still expect to get votes from Northerners.

They should keep playing the ethnic card...GEJ will not be president FOREVER.

BrokenTV: Sometimes I wonder if you guys really think with your brain. or what, did you forgot to put the name of the former CBN governor and the other opposition leaders there because the man mentioned about them in his interview.

I would be surprised if you had a brain.

Do you think other Nigerians are self centered and biased on this issue? Why do you always want to politicize every issue raised instead of looking forward to finding a lasting solution.

Where was Sanusi's name mentioned in the interview? For every sensible Nigeria which you obviously are not part of, anybody whose name is mentioned should face the full wrath of the law irrespective of party, tribe or religion..... Unfortunately, I see you all raving mad over the mention of your kinsman.

Foolish people

wesley80: APC rats pandering to their Northern slave masters.

This is no place for arsse lickers and AGIPs.

IgboMonk: Good one slave

Why don't you show some respect and stay where you belong....arsse wipe.

I have always maintained that those who exaggerate the under development of the north have never travelled across the Niger.

I can arguably say that prior to the BH menace, some cities in the north are the best place to live in with respect to peace and low cost of living.

The north has what it takes to sustain this country with its huge mineral deposits and agricultural lands but our leaders have failed to harness such potentials. This leadership failure is not restricted to only the north but the entire country.

The problem with this country is no just leadership, but also bad followership.

As long as we chose to remain as a country, it will be wise for us to come together, shun ethno-religious bigotry, and select the right leaders who will empower every region and by so doing, empower the country. If agriculture in the north improves, the benefits will be felt throughout the country... Same applies to all areas.

This country will be a lot better if we begin to show some love and respect to one another. Let's stop the stigmatisation of an entire region.

Nice article.

echobee:

Caseless2: this might be the reason they want to implicate him cos i can't believe boko cud jst come out reveal their sponsor jst like that. Again , they(boko haram) indicting him might also not be unconnected to the fact that he used them and dumped them. He even made law banning their activities; and he created a ministry of islamic/religious affair and made a boko haram member a commissioner. SAS hand no pure!

We also need to know who ordered the execution of Mohd Yusuf and why?

M0GIDI: [s][/s]

Look no further, the sponsors are Buhari and El-Rufai.

Aren't you guys tired of repeating the same stale and boring lines of mentioning Buhari as sponsor of Boko haram?

Mogidi, up till now you still no wan get sense ba?

campusflavour: [s]1) the negotiator doesnot understand hausa, and therefore can easily misunderstand what his interpreter is saying 2) he was there to negotiate for the return of the girls and not to find out who is bh sponsors, 3) terrorist will not expose their sources of power to u, cos u will cripple them and by the way how does he think he will be allowed into sambisa forest or any other terrorist camp again to negotiate if he is saying the truth?. 4) why is it that he didnt say this on cnn or bbc 5) the picture of him with some masked guys doesnot look real,1,the background is too clean to be a forest,2, i can pick 3 street boys to tie rags on their faces claiming to be bh, 6) he failed to bring back our girls. Pls its not pej that made this analogy na me wan use attract una, thanks [/s]

Can Jona tell us the sponsors since he once said he knows them, lives and dines with them in government.

Juliet11111: I'm watching the event live on NTA right now. That's EXACTLY what the apc chairman said. He said that should pdp win next year, nigeria would not survive. Op is right.

According to the Op
"We would make sure Nigeria doesn't survive another four years should pdp/jonathan win next year ".

My dear Juliet, don't allow mischievous elements from the cankerworm party to mislead you.

These unscrupulous elements of PDP have long mastered the art of deception. You should be careful with the things you read on this forum.

I find it astonishing hw many fail to realise and accept that Buhari is a great Icn and an embodiment of hope for the common man.

I, Like many others here wasn't born during the Buhari, but a little look at the archives will show (arguably) that after Murtala Mohd, no past leader ever had a better plan marshaled out to salvage this country like Gen Buhari.

Buhari, aside from having the desire to make this country better, is also very intelligent and brings around him, intelligent individuals unlike our dear Ogogoro master who apart from being dull and mumu-ish, surrounds himself with mediocres, thugs and criminals who having nothing positive to offer to this country.

I sincerely hope that this work by the op will serve as a wake up call to the gullible ones who have been brain washed by the wicked souls who do not wish this country well.

Collynzo16: You are quoting a northerner and talking about reorientating the South East people on the values of life? What an Irony.
No set of people value human life more than Igbos in this country.
If you want to be tribalistic, come out openly and be so.
Absolute nonsense.

Exhibiting the delusional disorder in you should not be seen as offensive but rather a cause for concern....so sad it is that NOTHING can be done to rid you of the genetically inbuilt grandiosity but to feel pity for you and hope you get well soon.

1United1: heavy rigging by pdp

How did PDP get this miraculouse lead?

Nigeria is in trouble. We must not fold our hands and watch these criminals continue to force themselves on the masses.

The ppeople should come out and REJECT this result even before next week's election.

1United1: Niger East Senatorial Election declared inconclusive.INEC fixes Sept 6 for supplementary election in 6 LGAs

This is serious. PDP trying to make the impossible possible.

Hmmm....PDP I hail thee.

1United1: PDP has inflated the figures for Shema Nuhu of PDP and declared him winner by 5000 votes!


They did it overnight!

Abeg stop this nonsense JOKE!

Rawani: Bruv i'm only excited for the improving economics. We used to hear of babies being sold for N85k for girls and N100k + for boys. Increasing demand and market forces has caused the sky-rocketing of the price to N620,00 , this industry has the potential to boost the SE economy, and give it something to contribute to the GDP for once. Lets not discredit the achievements of this administration. #PoliticsofFairness

Mugu!

I'm waiting for the day Ibos will claim Saudi Arabia.

My choice will always be Buhari and Fashola eventhough low thinking Nigerians will look at it from a religious angle.

The only set back I see with the Buhari candidacy is the corrupt elite MOSTLY from the northern part who prefer a dim-witted GEJ to provide unlimited access for looting of the treasury.

Buhari remains the candidate with the most reputable CV in our political class.

Collynzo16: This is what annoys me most, politicians go to churches and donate huge sums of money that their salary for a year wouldn't even cover, instead of the Pastors and Reverend fathers to ask questions, they invite these politicians to the altar for special prayers and blessings.
What utter hypocrisy!

This is the "core" problem with Nigeria. The few that try to ask questions will be tagged "attention seekers" or will be attributed with some sort of bigotry.....Example is how former CAN president Bishop Onaiyekan gets attacked by GEJ appologists whenever he criticizes the negative policies of the govt.

^^^ all of you above that agree with the Lunatic, Dogkubo, when will you commence the mission of repatriating the Fulanis from Nigeria?

Yeye noisemakers!

chimerase2: [s] pls let's talk abt popularity apart frm his LGA or maybe the state and few online forum like nairaland FB and some oda online department, who knw weda kwankwanso is a name of bird, animal place or thing. even some oda northeners have not heard of that name not to talk of southern nigeria, so tell me hw can he amass vote except frm his kano state and few oda online forum, sometimes we should reason like human beings, rochas and the overated fashola re by far more popular than him, politics is a game of number not how many times u lick buhari yassh or attack mr. President. [/s]

As much as I respect your opinion, its a bit naïve to say Kwankwaso is not popular "even in the north". Me think the ONLY politician from the NW more popular than Kwankwaso is Gen Buhari.

Going by his achievements and leadership style in as Governor of Kano state, Kwankwaso will make a good president but ...........Nijeriya Sai Buhari!

carefreewannabe: You are entitled to your own opinion but saying "fvck human rights" is not what I consider wise. In some situations, you would be more than greatful to have these rights.

Whether death penalty is appropriate or not is disputable. What is not disputable is the execution of people without a fair trial . A state that executes people without a trial is a terrorist state.

I don't subscribe to execution without a fair trial. If the penalty for a crime committed in the country is death, then the laws must be followed strictly. The human rights activists should not make efforts to tamper with those laws.

I will modify my initial statement to "Bleep the humans right activists in this case.

carefreewannabe: I am sure you would change your mind immediately if you or one of your loved ones were innocently executed without any proper trial.

I'm not refering to extra judicial killing. Crimes like terrorism and corruption should be punishable by DEATH!

ninja4life: why not cite examples of those countries with zero tolerance as u said but with low criminal activities

Saudi Arabia and China.
