Politics › Re: The Truth About The Ladipo Market Demolition. by AustineE1:
This i think is a failed attempt to launder the image of the ethnicly biased Lagos state authorities. It is disgusting how some tribal e-rats justified the bad intentioned action of the local authorities,simply because they think most of the victims of this act of tyranny are mainly people of the south-East. While youths all over the world are doing everything possible to stand against draconian laws,in furtherance of a better life. Nigerian youths,especially of a section of this country,are so brain-washed by their exploitive leaders into believing that life can only get better,if the People of the South East loses their sources of income and only then,can they the youths of south west be effectively competitive.
BTW,every market has an executive council,so hiding under the excuse that the chairman was informed before the demolition is so flimsy and the height of irresponsibility. Shouldnt a responsible government embark on massive enlightenment before their evil demolition,just they way they campaigned during their respective elections and am sure the government of the day didnt meet only they chairman during their campaign,the met they whole market while convincing them to vote their candidates.

Politics › Re: No Paradise For You: Al-Qaeda Condemns ISIS!!! by AustineE1: 5:17am On Jun 29, 2015
According to Al-qeada 'the crimes they have committed against muslims,cannot simply be over-looked or forgotten with time'... so from this statement by al-qeada,one can deduce that the crimes they the ISIS committed against christians and other non muslims can simply be over-looked by their Allah.. Al-qeada and ISIS are both different side of the same coin,they strive on shedding of innocent blood.They are nothing but evil!

Politics › Re: Bukola Saraki Was Petty Thief As Of 1990 - Sahara Reporters(photos) by AustineE1: 7:40pm On Jun 28, 2015
You see why i dont respect the south-west parapo,qwati-qwati press. All they do is to go to work once you go against the interest of south-west,where was saharareporters when these former thieves congregated and conspired against GEJ. All of a sudden the opened their archives to discover that Saraki was a petty thief because he went against their benefactor thi(ef)nubu.
We Nigerians know your modus operandi and we dont care if he is a thief,afterall 99.9% of all APC politicians are known criminals that ruined our nation in the past.
Politics › Re: Seadogs Condemn Show Of Shame In National Assembly by AustineE1:
mistabiola:
Mumu, why is he contradicting himself ,

In 1952, future- Nobel Prize winning author Wole
Soyinka and a group of six friends formed the
Pyrate Confraternity at the elite University College,
Ibadan, then part of the University of London. [1]
According to the Pyrates, the "Magnificent Seven",
as they called themselves, observed that the
university was populated with wealthy students
associated with the colonial powers and a few
poorer students striving in manner and dress to be
accepted by the more advantaged students, while
social life was dictated by tribal affiliation. [2]
Soyinka would later note that the Pyrates wanted to
differentiate themselves from "stodgy establishment
and its pretentious products in a new educational
institution different from a culture of hypocritical
and affluent middleclass, different from alienated
colonial aristocrats". [
....as time passed by,those poor students of yester-years,graduated and probably,due to their back-ground as seadogs,where well prepared for the bigger society out there and hence some became very great in their choosen profession.But what may ve distinguish them from other elites,is that inspite of their present social heights,they still use their resources to fight for the commoners,trying to create a sort of egalitarian society where the strong protects the weak.
Just may be,that explains why many Nigerian social rights crusaders are either Pyrates or seems to associate with the group.Pls,dont ask me how i got to know,google is your friend.

NAS always a step ahead,always pro-active and very responsive to national issues,i thought this is what a fraternity is all about...in other climes,fraternities are meant to be watch dogs of the society because of the available human resources in their hands,they are also meant to be a leadership training institute,where the spirit of chivalry,comradeship and discipline are promoted. I guess in Nigeria seadogs has set a standard akin to what is obtainable in higher climes.
The problem with fraternities in Nigeria is actually the pseudo-fraternities,that is the later day fraternities that came up after Pyrates. They are so drawn into the battle for supremacy and hence lost focus on what fraternity shld mean in its real sense.
Kudos to NAS for putting the pressure on the national assembly,i hope NLC and other civil right groups would follow suit. lets keep the pressure on,our politicians must be answerable to the masses.

Politics › Re: Anambra Den Of Drug Trafficking, Says NDLEA by AustineE1:
NDLEA must ensure they block the source of these drugs,block the transit routes but the major problem seems to be in the consumer zones or states. I know for sure that Kano and Lagos is very high on consumption.....i actually got scared when i heard of Meth production in Anambra,that drug is a 'zombie' crack,it can get you instantly 'cannibalized'. Please anti-drug forces shld as a matter of urgency track the drug cabal down,it does no one any good.
Politics › Re: APC NWC Divided Over Sanction For Saraki, Dogoyaro. by AustineE1:
I guess,what has torn APC apart is their greed,selfishness,nepotism and the worst form of insensitivity.Imagine the leaders of the party being angry that PDP Ekweremadu got the the deputy senate president.Left for Tinubu and his co-travelers in this line of impunity,they had wish that all major positions should be shared between north and south-west,since according to him,only North and south-west voted for Buhari and therefore other Nigerians of south East and south-south should only be seen and not heard.
Imagine south-south even accepting deputy chief whip,in a House of Rep. while a zone that produced they vice president,wanted the speaker of house of Rep and other major positions in the parliament,simply because other zones do not have equal rights in Nigeria of APC government,is this what the mantra of so-called 'Change' is all about.I have also watched with dismay the level at which also they North has been carting away all major positions but i tell you,'the denial of our rights is an invitation to fight for it', APC is sowing the seed that may soon destroy this country,in the lower Niger region,People are bittered and in some other places in this country,there is pronounced bitterness in the way APC is going about doing things with impunity and in the worst form of disregard.
The evil date may be nearer than most people thought. I wish to remind APC that we Nigerian youths are watching and we are observing the way its leaders are fanning the embers of disunity among the various zones and i bet you,the real monster that may consume this deformed entity called Nigeria is fast fattening up and may soon be unleashed either by Buharis actions or in-actions.
Politics › Re: ISIS Carries Out Simultaneous Attacks In Three Continents by AustineE1: 7:14pm On Jun 26, 2015
Wildrage:
How can a Perfect God create these monsters, how can we claim he is Omnipotent, omnipresent and omniscient and yet he folds his arms and watch his beloved children wantonly killed by mere mortals? Many say his ways are mysterious, I am still at a loss as to what that means. Does it mean he can intervene but chose not to? My carnal mind would never accord a modicum of respect to a father who sat by comfortably and watches people inflict unimaginable punishment on his "beloved" son when he has all it takes to prevent/protect him
i dont know what you believe in or the insane abnormality of our days called 'atheism'. Those who would rather believe the 'big bang theory' of creation,that sounds like a fairytale told for comic relief.
As for me,God is forever awesome,He created mankind,gave us freewill,the abiliy to choose between wrong and right,good and bad,with abundance grace enough for all....at the fullness of time,everyone under the sun will be judged according to his/her deeds on earth,for every deed,there is rewards and consequencies.Yet in his abundant mercy,he gives us chance for repentance,atonement and enough time for sober reflection.
Inspite of my sinfulness,i pray for the grace to forever serve God,the Mighty one in Battle.
Politics › Re: Buhari Boiling Over Yesterday's Fight - Ministerial List To Be Delayed Longer by AustineE1:
Buhari was never prepared for a 21st century Nigeria.The old order imposed him on us,so that the statusquo will be maintained!
The northern oligarchy conspired with their ever submissive 'bride' south-west,in other to get back power they so much believed is their birth right.....the mantra of 'change' is all about North,North,North and Northern interest. Southwest must learn to live with it and the accompanied perpetual servitude,their leaders sold out and now there is no need crying over spilled milk.
Posterity will forever be on the side of those of us from the lower Niger, for we fought a good fight,we spoke out but the 'custodians' of Nigeria,who are victims of darkness,held tight to the chain of bondage.
Politics › Re: Man Drowns Friend For Refusing To Join His Cult Group In Lagos ( Pictures ) by AustineE1: 4:43pm On Jun 23, 2015
In Africa they say its wrong to talk bad of the dead but from the reported incidence above,i think the dead guy got himself into trouble.First by attending a party that was meant for a particular clandestine group,secondly insisting on dancing with a girl,even when he was told point blank by the gal that her 'body' is meant for the bad guys only. Lastly even after been ejected by the organizers,he stayed behind to flex his muscles.
My honest thinking is that his 'cultist' friend never intended hurting him,may be for old time sake but he was provoked and his friends as expected,proped him to go for a fight and the unfortunate result was death.
My submission is that since a crime has been committed, the perpetrator must be brought to book but for manslaughter.
A big lesson for all,if you reject evil,reject it in totality.

Politics › Re: 11 States To Seek N300.5bn Refund From FG...As Buhari Meets With Govs Today by AustineE1: 7:24am On Jun 23, 2015
Sweetguy25:
It seems like Osun state did not embark on any FG project and they're still the most indebted to state workers. Since they won't be receiving any bailout from the FG, how will they cope?
seriously i was looking for Imo and Osun state,whom i thought may ve spent their entire one year budget on federal projects,may be that should ve explained why these incompetent governors were unable to pay workers their hard earned salaries.
Btw these governors are very corrupt,in states where states roads and projects are in their worst condition ever,they left their state project and started dabbling into federal government projects,that in itself its an indictment on the governors. Amaechi felt that by abondoning his state roads and trying to fix one or two federal government roads,that he would be sending a message to Rivers people that GEJ hates them and he the governor is doing what GEJ shld ve done for Rivers. Dirty politics!

Some of us saw it coming,the core northern region are always most likely to be power drunk and watch and see how most sensitive positions will go to their people,while the south is made busy in their Igbo-Yoruba supremecy struggle....in a sane society Gen.Dambazau shld be spending time behind bars for almost truncating our nascent democracy during they unfortunate death of former president Yaradau but yet Buhari feels more comfortable with such an evil character.....my heart weeps for Nigeria.

bigtt76:
Pack wan side jooooooor! For your information ...we do not hate GEJ ....we all fought to have in there and he dropped the ball. Corruption under him snow balled to an all time high in Nigeria. Even IBB confessed that they guy (GEJ) too much grin ....he had to go and we all ensured he left at the right time. We will salvage Nigeria and when its stable again, we might help bring him back as a Local Government Councillor .....for he needs to get the basic training in governance before heading to the pinnacle.

He was never a Commissioner, even as deputy governor, he never was in the mainstream politics before he became governor. During his tenor as governor, he wasn't even known amongst his mates. As President, it became worst ....shyness wan kill am at world fora where meeting the other world leaders is always cherished ....he would get himself drunk at all times to avoid the scene grin

You de come tell me about who hate GEJ and who nor hate am. I'm sure he always reeks of alcohol which led to many heads of government not inviting him over grin did you not see how many invitations PMB got even before being sworn in?
i may nt totally subscribe to what Op has written but for you to now bring up the issue of a Buhari who is so confused and ill-prepared for 21st century governance is highly despicable. Cant you see our beloved country seems to be going down the drain,Buharis situation is a case of 'the soul is willing but the flesh is weak'. i will rest my case here,not because i lack what to write but simply because i still cannt come to terms with the fact that many of us, even the very 'learned' among us were all gullible and fell into the deceptic mantra of 'change'. The question is 'how did we find ourselves in such an ill-prepared leadership? Again I weep for my country!

So in other words, if Atiku and Tinubu had been kept in confidence of the ministerial list there wouldn't have been anxiety. Why do all these block headed journalists reduce serious national concern to the interest of inconsequential personalities whose stakes in the polity is not more than that of every average Nigerian?
you got it wrong,THE CABLE to me is better than SAHARAREPORTERS,the individuals mentioned above have a stake on who becomes a minister because unlike average Nigerians,they looted our commonwealth in the worst form of impunity and then invested it into the presidential quest of the old man from Daura (PMB) and as usual they intend to get their returns.....its a pity we now find ourselves in a vicious circle of endless corruptn rather than the much anticipated change.
Politics › Re: Ggg by AustineE1: 8:58pm On Jun 11, 2015
I read with dismay the level of ignorance exhibited in this forum,at one point someone was even giving an assumed exemplary position from alorasealords site,which to me is the most cynical thing i have heard in my recent past,thesame Buccaneers who denied their school(deck)members and deceptively registered as (BAN)Brothers Across Nigeria with the CAC.
In another instance someone was lumping (NAS)national ass.of seadogs aka Pyrate confraternity with other pseudo-fraternities whose interest lies in just supremacy battles within themselves.
From all available information obtainable,Pyrates left higher institutions in the early eighties,as a result of an order at the supreme pyrate conference,demanding the withdrawal and subsequent dissolving of all ABC decks and authority handed over to the zonal capns(state leaders).We ve all heard of fracas in different universities between the various cult groups that exit in our universities and now being the era of information technology,i challenge anyone to bring out any news of killings involving NAS also known as Pyrate confraternity.
While most other groups are still faced with teething problems,seadogs as they are called,has been in the fore front of anti-cultism battles in our higher institutions,demanding total justice for victims of cult wars,carrying out seminars in this regard,infact their magazine known as 'Armada',has a colum for Nigeria police and security matters and tips,they international charity organ known as NASIC has long attained an enviable height as good ambassadors,as recognised by UN,USA,Britain etc.
NAS also has a strong election monitoring organ which works in tandem with other reknowned international electoral monitoring bodies in checkmating the excesses of our politicians etc
it is most degrading to lump NAS with these psendo-fraternities that may be criminally inclined.I said this because i have privilege information about the various fraternities in Nigeria.
I hope sooner than latter these other groups must endeavour to sanitize themselves of hostility against others and assume a leadership training role,as obtainable in higher climes.
