I'll be honest because frm wat I hav seen frm buhari's body language so far, very soon d APC we see today we might see dem no more!

Except PMB truly balances dis appointments.

Take d job bro...experience gained from dt place cud help u one day...but kip ur eyes open for better opportunities nd neva stop applying for other jobs....Incase u don't kno d present SGF is an engineer too.

I received a message from GLO to update my biometrics. On getting to their office I was told that the Major requirement for Registration is that I must part with N200 before I can commence my registration.

It is important to note that when I went to update my biometrics at the Mtn office I wasn't asked to part with a dime, instead after a successful update I was rewarded with abt N18000 worth of recharge bonus for two days.

Why is glo asking everyone to part with N200?

Funny hw Nigerian youths think. So, u don't know Matthew kukah's recent visit are connected to who becomes the next CAN president? Pple just come to a forum like Nairaland to comment anyhw dey like. SMH.

001ng:
Northerners, winner takes it all.



That's a bad precedent in a multi ethnic country like Nigeria.


PMB, I voted you but I don't support this. Don't let my neighbours , friends and family members that were against my support for you laugh at me.

DISCLAIMER:
I will like to emphasize that I am not from the Northern part of Nigeria before my argument will be taken as a tribal contribution.

Please, if pple don't know wat to say somtimes it is better to just remain silent.

We elected PMB as president so dat he would usher us to the Nigeria of our dreams. With that we empowered him to take executive decisions on our behalf.

Since the inception of democracy in 1999, all past leaders have always appointed persons who they can vouch for into sensitive positions like this. If u need the list I am ready to present it to you.

Our immediate past president, Goodluck jonathan appointed pius anyim (southerner) as SGF and mike oghiadomhe from my state Edo state was his Chief of Staff. Mike was also a southerner. Did d North complain?

Please we Nigerian youths need to stop this recent polarisation of Nigeria.

The level of educated youths in our generation is more than other generations put together and as such we shd be the New face of a New Nigeria and not a conflagration of tribal bigots!!

God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria!!!

The day I learnt dat majority of pple who comment on threads like dis are actually jobless was d day I started laffin off comments frm threads such as dis.

If the gradual return of order to our national life dat am seeing nw is d only thing buhari as done in just 100 days I wud like to scream RIDE ON SIR!!!

Thank God for giving us a Man like Buhari at this time in dis great country of mine!

Pls I got dis sms from SumeruNG and before I start forwarding it to friends and associates I need to verify if it is a scam. Excerpts: "Are you a graduate with 2.2 or upper credit & below 26years? Send ur cv to careersng@sumerusolutions.com for entry level job in a reputable bank. 0808xxxxxxxx."
Pls has any1 else received this kind of sms?

Joblessness nor gud oh!

The pple saying wats dere tp act will be d first to rush to d cinema to watch part2...just watch.

Nice one Mr President. Its good to set d records straight.

Now, let's address the issue of Amaechi and Tinubu.

Amaechi was d immediate past governor of Rivers state and for dose who are nt aware the Present Governor Barr. Nyesom wike is a PDP Man. As current governor He has d right to probe d administration of Amaechi and if Amaechi is found wanting the Law will definitely take its Full course. Additionally, Several petitions have bn sent to EFCC and dis petitions hav bn written against Amaechi and His wife. So, we shd allow EFCC do deir job. As dey are currently investigating d Amaechis.

Tinubu, A very smart Nigerian Politician. I don't know y dere hasn't bn enuff evidence to nail dis Man. I am not privy to d content of d petitions against him dat hav bn sent to d EFFC. Maybe one day "monkey go go market nd he no go come back again." Let's Watch and See.

I don't belong to any party but I believe in Good governance. I was a strong pro-jonathan supporter esp. Around 2011 but what dat Man did to dis Country I believe only God can pay him back. It would have bn better if he had refused to contest in 2011 knowing dat as a laissez faire leader he wasn't cut out for a job as tough as Nigerian President but He went ahead to fulfil d lust for power of a particular cabal and today we cn see deir worst but God is nt asleep as all of dem will pay in one way or anoda for d mass looting dat was allowed under their watch!!

I don't nid to like PMB to give him a chance to prove me wrong. If before december I don't begin to see concrete evidence of what government is doing then it would be better Buhari never contested at all!

Is dere no way dis artist can be cautioned so dat we don't get to a point where our artist practically hav nothing to sing?

I think doing dis is a gud idea cos we wud be helping d artists and also future artistes.

megasamuel:
Fly you to Paris bobo

u re funny bro

I attended a christian wedding today nd one of d songs d dj played was shakiti bobo on inquiring from d guy sitting close to who was obviously enjoying d song I learnt it was Olamide who sang dis particular song

My Challenge:
I can't seem to understand why most "danceable" gospel songs are nt appreciated and playedeven in a Christian marriage reception but instead I will start hearing d Dj play shakiiti bobo. Moreover does dis song have any meaning?

Summary:
What's d Meaning of "Shakiti bobo"

When is d deadline for recruitment please?

I support negations wt BH but it shd be done wt tact. Those to be offered amnesty shd be ready to give us all d necessary information that will enable our military gain more grounds in d areas dat hv bn formerly nd currently bn occupied by BH.

U don't throw away d baby nd d bathe water. In this case we nid to explore d dialogue option...it is only wen we hv exhausted all available channels for negotiation dats wen we can finally say dat d negotiation window has bn closed.

I sincerely can't believe am reading this. If someone had told me that jonathan wud be sent packing to Otuoke I wudnt hav believd it.

I want to use dis opportunity to thank all Nigerians dat made dis possible. Initially, it lukd impossible but today it is a reality. We hav sent GEJ and madam peace back to whr dey belong.

The only limitation a man has is d one he places on himself.

If this is true, I dare say it is undemocratic! Hopefully d truth will come out soon.

Pls take note that PMB was only honouring the invitation by Prez Obama and daz d reason he visited d US.

During visits like dis Nations seek to deepen their relations nd of course dere are always strings attachd daz a normal due to interests.

In dis case, it is only normal for PMB to honour d invite nd use d opportunity to seek for any assistance d US can giv. We had nothing to lose by visiting d US.

The Accodomation, feeding and others were provided for by d US and so I don't understand ur point. Moreover, we nid their help more than dey nid ours.

I don't see any sense in this ur defence-thread. PMB said it took Obama some months befor he had his full cabinet and as observers of international events all know, Some of Obama's nominees had issues bothering on crediblity etc.

PMB mentioned d fight against corruption as one of his govt's policies, now do you expect him to appoint pple of questionable character? It is ur likes dat will shout crucify him if he picks som1 dat lacks crediblity!

Yet you expect him to make dsame mistake dat Obama made witout checking his nominees well before sending deir names to d senate. If He makes dat mistake you will still come out here to call him clueless.

Quit this Show of bitterness and dissipate ur research capabilties into other ventures dat will be of greater benefit to the many youths in Nigeria who are trying to get a job!

This post is laughable...Lol

Good move...angry it wasn't implemented in my time.

God help Nigeria!

As hav sed earlier and wud always say, it is completely premature for any1 weda anti or pro PMB to pass any judgement on dis government for now. We nid to giv dem time because of wat dey met on ground and in a case like dis it shd be expected.

To any1 who is criticizing irrationally because he/she wants to be relevant, I want to tell such dat its a free world and so u can continue to ridicule yourself cos dose in d know are aware dat PMB means business.

When I say dose in d know, I mean dose in government circles. My prayer wud always be for PMB to at least lay a gud foundation and take us away frm d past.

barcanista:
Good evening all, I was reading an article authored by Buhari that he wrote on Washington Post http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/nigeria-committed-to-good-governance-and-fighting-terror/2015/07/20/8c1acd00-2e21-11e5-8353-1215475949f4_story.html. In the said article he attempted to justify delay in his appointment of Cabinet by alleging that President Obama also had some delay in his first term. Please read this excerpt..

"When cabinet ministers are appointed in September, it will be some months after I took the oath of office. It is worth noting that Obama himself did not have his full Cabinet in place for several months after first taking office; the United States did not cease to function in the interim." --- (Pres. Muhammadu Buhari)

I paused to ask myself whether the Obama that Muhammadu Buhari was referring to is the incmbent President of The United States or another Obama.



Obama Named His Cabinet Before Taking Office:
Obama was elected President on November 4, 2008. As President-elect Obama immediately started the nomination of his Cabinet. By December 17, 2008, Barack Obama had already nominated all his Cabinet Secretaries. Obama was sworn-in on January 20, 2009. www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Barack_Obama/Appointments_and_nominations_as_President

The only late cabinet nomination of Obama was Judd Gregg- the nominee for Commerce Secretary. His nomination came on Feb 3, 2009. That is 13 days after Obama was sworn in. The delay was because the FIRST nominee for the position Bill Richardson withdrew his nomination on January 6, 2009 due to some allegation against him as New Mexico state Governor (He was nominated on the 4th of Dec 2008. See his own word

"I have concluded that the ongoing investigation also would have forced an untenable delay in the confirmation process,"
"Given the gravity of the economic situation the nation is facing, I could not in good conscience ask the president- elect and his administration to delay for one day the important work that needs to be done."

www.nbcnews.com/id/28493919/

So which Obama was Buhari referring to?

Buhari The Record Breaker:
Already Buhari has made a record as the first elected President of Nigeria to stay in office for 53 days without having Secretary to the Government of the Federation. ExPresidents Olusegun Obasanjo and Dr Jonathan named Ufot Ekaete and Ayim Pius Ayim as SGF same day of their inauguration in 1999 and 2011 respectively. Late Yar'adua named Babagana Kingibe as SGF 24hrs after his inauguration in 2007. Buhari however is yet to. This shows that Buhari is not serious with the business of governance.

Buhari will break another record should he fail to nominate Ministers by the end of this month. He will break the record of Musa Yar'adua as the longest streak without naming a cabinet. Yar'adua named his cabinet on the 28th of July 2007. Buhari's delay till September will mean beating Yar'adua's record by more than a month (depending on the date he nominates his cabinet). Buhari will also become the only elected African and Global leader to stay in office for FOUR months without a cabinet.

These records are not the kind of record that any serious country wish for. I don't think Nigeria's case is different. Finally, Muhammadu Buhari should stop trying to act smart by playing on Nigeria's intelligence. His failure to name a cabinet shows that he isn't prepared for leadership.


May God Bless Us All

Wat u seem not to understand is that all dose positions are Political positions.

It is a gud thingd dat d president has nt appointed any one yet. U know y? It gives him enuff opportunity to know and understand how each ministry is being run. Apart frm dat, it helps him to do a total clean up of dose ministries so dat wen a minister comes he won't have any excuse for not performing.

Evry wise Man knows dat u don't keep doing dsame tin and den u start expecting different results.

Moreover dis a New party and a New administration, so do you expect them to continue frm where PDP stopped? That will be continuing wit d status quo nd We who voted for change didn't vote for dat. We voted for a break away frm d status quo and PMB understands that nd Being in Opposition doesn't stop ur brains frm functioning I believe.

Give Change a chance and stop sounding bitter all d time over nothing.

God Bless you too!

Noted.

wecan:
APC IS A DISGRACE TO NIGERIA. SEE HOW THEY ARE WORSHIPING OBAMA AS IF HE IS THEIR GOD.
WHAT IS SO SPECIAL THERE THAT MADE ALL THESE GOVERNORS AND PRESIDENT TO LEAVE THEIR COUNTRY JUST TO GO AND SEE OBAMA?
CAN'T THIS PRESIDENT AND HIS GOVERNORS LEAD NIGERIA WITHOUT THE HELP OF AMERICA?
NIGERIA IS DOOMED...............

Must u talk? The same Obama dat ur GEJ was running after just to get credibilty in the international community is the one who invited PMB for discussions nd not just dat He has accorded d Nigerian delegation wt All d full respect dat we rightly deserve.

This kind of reception, hospitality and respect was never shown by the US-Obama led administration.

Wake Up! because if u continue like dis, ur health mite be at risk later on due to excessive hatred for a man who seeks to right wat ur Hero(GEJ) wronged.

Before the Handover to general Buhari, Nigeria was alredi borrowing to pay salaries. The Handlers of the Economy as at Two months Ago had bn in power for 6 years.

Two months ago, a new administration came in and discovers the rot created by the past administration in the system. This rot didn't start two months ago. No! It started 6yrs ago nd what do we hear from Partisan Nigerians? PMB is too slow, baba go slow, he has not appointed ministers etc. Have you guys bothered to tink at all abt hw d economy got to this present level esp. As at this year 2015?

Well, pple always run frm d truth. I will continue to support wateva it will take to unearth d billions of stolen Nigerian commonwealth, reduction of corruption to the barest minimum, gud governance and above all respect to the rule of law.

Any1 who is saying buhari is too slow is childish no matter how advanced in age such a man or woman.

Lord, May u intervene in d crisis rocking Assemblies of God Church in Nigeria. The church of God must march on and the gates of Hell shall not prevail. I speak peace to AG!

Rotimi Amaechi in my opinion is one of the most corrupt politicians to ever come out of Nigeria. Its only dat dis dude is smart nd as such tracing misappropriated funds to him is always difficult but I hope dis time d anti corruption agencies hv done deir job properly and we will see a gud presentation dat will lead to recovery of our looted funds nd a lengthy jail term for pple like him.

I hate corrupt persons no matter who they are. My belief is dat PMB won't meddle into such a probe because som1 like Amaechi is involved.

The Presidents visit to the US shdnt be such a Big deal at this time wen Nigeria is trying to reorganise itself after d wayward manner in which the previous administration handled issues home and Abroad.

In the wake of Chibok girls kidnap several foreign nations were ready to support Nigeria in d recovery of dose girls but most of this countries had to back out on seeing dat those who shd be in-charge weren't ready.

US and other countries are ready to support only if dey can see sincerity on the part of government.

Thank God for PMB, A man who has won the confidence of the international community. No matter how the opposition criticizes him, any matured and experienced man or woman will know that the man needs to be given a little time. Moreover its never how far but how well... I Wish the president and his entourage safe trip!!

collinsVP:
It is high time the managers of this forum placed age limit to entry into political section. Sometimes I find it difficult to comment especially on a thread as crucial as this one.

However PMB would not want to do things as they have always been done without achieving desired result. And given the fact that; is only a fool that does something the same way and expect to achieve different result.

Hence, he has chosen to adopt the concept of EXPEDIENCY to achieving results. Those who love this country and have open mind will agree with me on the fact that, if you subjected this former NSA's case to the protocol of democratic process, it must end under the carpet.

How many committee did GEJ's government set up whenever issues of misappropriation of public fund came up? Was any resolved? Does it not form part of the corruption for which we voted GEJ out?

Any action of government that has human face despite it divergent to the democratic principles is very much welcomed in my view.

God bless Nigeria.

ut because of his lack of will to carry out actions like dis...Truth is most of dis pple screaming and wailing know dat PMB is d real deal but because they have sold deir souls to PDP pay masters dey will never speak d truth. Sambo was NSA and soldiers were complaining abt weapons and welfare. If Nigerian youths have decided to stand good jugdgement on its head because of politics,tribal or ethnic leanings I wonder wat wud happen in our generation.

The kind of hate, plain ethnic discrimination dat Nigerians exhibit towards fellow Nigerians is only lending credence to the fact dat we are our greatest enemies.

Physically I believe most pple here won't talk like dis while in public but instead dey wud keep dis opinion deep down in their mind but technological advancement with d aid of a social media platform has gifted evry1 opportunity to empty d very deep nd evil thoughts dat dwell within their hearts. I pray for Nigeria each day I read comments from dis Forum!!
