Tundeajani:Who forged Buhari's statement of result is the question Nigerians are asking. Also, I don't have a boss. |
So, who forged Buhari's statement of result? |

Why should Jonathan do anything for me? What my state gov. or my LG chairperson does affects my life more. But this election is about Jonathan not my gov. I need a President that understands the big picture and has the ability to delegate responsibilities to institutions in the Country. I am not looking for a superman president or a miracle worker. From infrastructures, schools, healthcare even jobs. My state gov carries more responsibility than any man/woman in Abuja. Be it Jonathan or Buhari. Nigeria needs institutions not super men. Buhari joined the Nigerian army in 1961 without a certificate. Buhari as minster of petroleum was accused of misplacing N2.8B about $16B today. Buhari as PTF chairperson oversaw an organisation, where N25B about $1B then, would not be accounted for, after a public audit. Where did he stop corruption? Or you mean arresting people without due process. Putting them before a Kangaroo tribunal? Where nobody had the right to confront the evidence against them? That is not fighting corruption, that's abuse of people's human right. The story of Buhari's certificate is not about education. Rather, integrity, fraud and due process. In 1960s young men joined the army officer cadet program with BSC, HSC, division one and two certificates. How did Buahri evade that prerequisite. Buhari retired/sacked thousands in 1980s for not been able to authenticate their credentials. Why does he want to be treated any different? |

Nigeria’s economy outlook growing, says World Bank Posted by: Nduka Chiejina, Abuja in Featured, News 1 min ago Nigeria’s short term macroeconomic outlook improved in the first half of this year relative to 2013, according to the World Bank in its new Nigeria Economic Report (NER) launched yesterday in Abuja. The report states: Revenues to the Federation have increased, foreign reserves have stabilised, the Excess Crude Account (ECA) has been augmented, and prospects for growth are stronger than last year.” The stabilisation of foreign reserves the World Bank said, “reflects greater confidence among investors. Following a year of decline, foreign reserves stabilised in April-May, in the context of improved confidence of investors. The precise causes of this stabilization the World Bank noted, will need to be assessed further when more data becomes available. “Yet the partial stabilisation of expectations of investors concerning oil prices, fiscal policy, and the commitment of the Central Bank to defending the exchange rate is clearly important,” said the World Bank. Expectations about the performance of the oil sector, it said, have improved in general, bolstered by increases in oil revenues accruing to the government. The World Bank, using the International Labour Organisation (ILO), definition, stated that “unemployment rate in Nigeria, according to a usual ILO definition, is likely lower than 10 per cent. This, it said, “is the conclusion that comes from unofficial assessments, including that of the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), and does not contradict the fact that the scarcity of jobs is the number one economic in Nigeria”. As in many other developing countries, the report noted, “most Nigerians cannot afford to be completely unemployed”. “Those without good productive employment therefore typically engage in various low productivity and low paying tasks for survival.” Unemployment, the report said, “may be better understood as an underemployment problem corresponding to a scarcity of high productivity jobs, and in many cases of highly qualified candidates to fill those jobs”. “These additional jobs and qualifications need to be created in Nigeria through accelerated private sector growth in the cities and improvements in the country’s education system.” The re-based GDP estimates reveal a larger, more dynamic and complex economy than did previous statistics, said the report, stresses that macroeconomic risks remain due to uncertainty about future oil output, oil prices and short term capital flows. The NER analyses new data from household surveys in 2010/2011 and 2012/2013 to reassess poverty and living standards in Nigeria and “concludes that poverty rates in Nigeria are likely significantly lower than previously believed, and progress toward poverty reduction may be stronger”. According to the report, “poverty reduction in Nigeria appears to be primarily an urban phenomenon, with poverty rates in rural areas higher, and poverty reduction slower”. While recent panel surveys indicate that the per capita national poverty rate based on the official poverty line may now be as low as 33.1 per cent, a large share of the Nigerian population the report said “is still not far above the poverty line, indicating vulnerability.” “The combination of the new GDP and poverty estimates is valuable in giving us what we believe to be a clearer picture of development and poverty reduction in Nigeria,” said John Litwack, Lead Economist and Acting Country Manager of the World Bank. The NER also highlights continuing differences between Nigeria’s regions in poverty reduction. The South and North Central regions show progress in poverty reduction between 2010 and 2013. The North West witnessed little change, and the Northeast experienced an increase in the poverty rate along with a general decline in living standards. “Improvements in public services, key infrastructure to better connect markets, and measures to increase productivity in agriculture could help put Northern regions on a strong path toward poverty reduction,” said Mr Litwack, lead author of the report, whilst also noting the critical role of security. In 2013, federation revenues mirrored federal budgetary revenues which also fell short of expectations in 2013, despite coverage by the ECA of a good part of the shortfalls. The World Bank report noted that “some expenditure items were not fully funded. In particular, the capital budget was significantly underfunded while recurrent expenditures and statutory transfers were almost fully funded. Actual capital spending in 2013 was 60 per cent of planned. The federal budget deficit for 2013 of 738.9 billion Naira was 17 per cent lower than projected and amounted to one percent of (re-based) GDP.” http://thenationonlineng.net/new/nigerias-economy-outlook-growing-says-world-bank |
The year is 2015, Soludo should present current data. Don't tell us about poverty in 2010/2011. What are the number for 2014/2015. |
World Bank Cuts Nigeria's Poverty Rate to 33.1%, Says North is Poorer *Predicts 7.4% growth in 2014 James Emejo The World Bank Tuesday said there had been positive economic trend as well as significant progress made towards poverty eradication in the country. It said in its second edition of the Nigeria Economic Report (NER) which was launched in Abuja that going by the recent rebasing of the economy as well as analysis from the new General Household Surveys (GHS) conducted by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) with the support of the Bank, new poverty estimates in 2010/2011 and 2012/2013 should be within the range of 35.2 per cent and 33.1 per cent respectively. Although the previous NBS Harmonised Nigeria Living Standards Survey (HNLSS) 2009/2010, which took a larger study sample into account had estimated poverty rate at 62.6 percent, the Breton woods institution said it had strong reasons to believe that "consumption was seriously underestimated in the large HNLSS household survey in 2009/2010." It stated that an analysis of a panel survey data (GHS) of 5000 households for 2010/2011 and 2012/2013 provided "evidence that consumption is likely higher than previously estimated from the HNLSS survey." Furthermore, the new GHS analysis put rural poverty at 46.3 per cent and 44.9 per cent in 2010/2011 and 2012/2013 respectively compared to 69.1 per cent and 51.2 per cent respectively in the HNLSS 2009/2010 estimates by the NBS. The World Bank estimates further suggested that the number of poor Nigerians remained at 58 million adding that more than half of the figure are located in the North- east or North- west. Specifically, it noted:" Poverty rates range from 16 per cent in the South- West to 52 per cent in the North-East. While the South and North central experienced declines in the poverty rate between 2010/2011 and 2012/2013, the poverty rate increased almost unchanged in the North West." http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/world-bank-cuts-nigerias-poverty-rate-to-33-1-says-north-is-poorer/184259/ |
Mynd44:Which NSA said they wrote the same exams together? |
Justbright:Where is the confirmation from Cambridge saying he sat for an exam? |
olas24u:God knows the future, I know Buhari and want nothing to do with him. Buhari is the principal reason, we spent 16 years groping in darkness. I can never forgive him for his coup. |
olas24u:The power of the PVC!!!!, something Buhari never respected in 1983. Nigerians would have had the opportunity in 87 to decide NPN's fate. Fortunately for us, Buhari's fate will be shredded by that PVC. God bless Nigeria. |
olas24u:Like Shagari ? Buhari's failure was contained. |
olas24u:Buhari's retardation died after 20 months, because it was a massive failure. |
olas24u:Are you telling us Nigeria was better off 16 years after Buhari's coup? Responsibility lies with the coup plotter Buahri. All the characters, he brought to the Nigerian landscape did all those damage. |
olas24u:A revolution?? Nigerians called it a retardation. 16 years later, corruption was worst than any day under shargari. All the players Buhari and his gang brought to power are trillionaires today.
|
olas24u:What corruption? is treason worse than corruption. |
After observing what happened in Nigeria in the past three years. I strongly believe Nigerians need to tender an apology to Shagari.. The News media branded that administration corrupt. All because of their hate and their election losesGod bless the internet and other alternative media, if not for these sources, Jonathan would be finished already. The same propaganda crews, attempted their Shargari tactics, but faced a determined opposition. |
olas24u:I asked a simple question, was treason the law of the land in 1983? |
All jokes aside, has Buhari ever logged into a twitter account? ![]() |
olas24u:Which laws are you talking about? Was it the law of the land to commit treason too? |
Jakpon:If you want to talk about Delta state open a new thread and invite all your 1000 monikers. I am in the mood to bloody your life this sunday. Oya go and open the thread. |
Jakpon:Ibori is not a state governor. Kudos to the good people of delta, that made his life after government miserable. By the way, James Ibori outperformed any gov in the South between 1999 and 2007. |
omonnakoda:Take your own advise and stop sounding like a frustrated soul. |
Last year the states in Nigeria spent about N10.5T, the federal government about N4.6T. Yet people are asking what is the federal government doing for them. That question is not only misplaced, but totally stupid. What is your state gov doing for you ![]() |
omonnakoda:Some of you live in a different planet. ![]() |
