Antichristus:
Well said. The sad thing is 99.9% of Nigerians I've encountered are products of mendacious indoctrination, lacking the ability and creativity to think for themselves.

99.9%! You again! You're empty but you feel better when you say crap about Nigeria and Nigerians.

Antichristus:
No. S/he is not; it is you who should be weeping and gnashing your teeth for the miserable and woeful country of yours called Nigeria - the ANT and SHAME of Africa. Have you heard your idiotic and imbecilic president claiming before the POTUS and the whole world that Libyan rebels - not Fulani herdsmen - who are terrorising Nigerians (and I dare add, UNABATED!) Yet you have police and military apparatuses? Your country is a banana republic.

Now, you're wailing too.

QuitNotice:
It has nothing to do with Adichie abeq. Persin no qo change status in peace egen? Op come here...

It has everything to do with her. I knew that she was going to change it. Read her response again, then you will see that she was going to change it.

HajimeSaito:


I'm sure all the attention seeking non-entities like DaddyBrainFreeze and all the dumb, stupid,
reta-rded women who lack the intelligence and self esteem to build themselves up and become self made women like Chimamanda and Hillary Clinton will be dumbfounded by this development.

When Chimamanda initially made her observation, I was just watching the reaction of Nigerians with a mixture of amusement and pity. The kind of pity I only reserve for fools. Nigerians actually thought that their rantings induced by low self-esteem and ignorance would catch Chimamanda's attention. But like a mad dog locked in a cage, the louder they barked the more they were ignored.


If the first episode gave them running stomach, this latest development will bring on a full blown case of diarrhea. Their country is on fire and thousands of lives have been lost. But rather than focus their energies on the problems confronting them on the homefront, Nigerians were busy dancing one corner over Chimamanda's innocent observation on identity politics.

Stupid people governed by a stupid president who believes a woman's only place is in "za oza room." Nigerians deserve such a president.

You're crying.

Rather than rabble beer parlour lines, it would have made more sense if you quote the periods it happened in those different administrations. .

Abu Ibrahim (Katsina-APC), accused senators of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) of conspiring to impeach Mr Buhari.
He justified the president’s decision to make the withdrawal on precedence.
“He took action based on national interest, that’s why he authorised this payment. As far as I’m concerened, this is the first time that money drawn from excess crude oil account is being brought to the National Assembly. Since they begin to operate this account, I have never seen any expenditure that was brought here for approval.
“N17.7 billion was drawn by (ex-President) Obasanjo to pay the Paris Club without National Assembly approval. Obasanjo left N9.3 billion in excess crude account but former President Goodluck Jonathan …the money with no recourse to the National Assembly. The account was increased to over N20 billion in 2008 and decreased to less than N4 billion by Jonathan in 2010. It never came to National Assembly for approval.
“N2 billion was used by the previous PDP administration to fight Boko Haram in 2014. Governor Godswill Akpabio was the one who moved the motion at the National Economic Council to get the money. N5 billion was taken for power generation, funding was also sourced for Niger Delta, the same process was not taken by (ex-President Yar’ adua). It was later taken to the National Assembly and it was approved".

Goalposts shifting is allowed.

seguno2:
Which Sanusi?
The one who was [b]queried over stealing money before he was fired and he was running to the court with Osinbajo to stop the investigation
Please don’t talk about what you don’t know. Please!

Sanusi was queried over missing money? Which money was that again? I hope it wasn't the same one Jona was referring to as "America will know".

seguno2:
Thanks bro.
Don’t mind the lazy youths.
Was her mother not kidnapped
Nigerians prefer thieves like Buhari, Tinubu, Lai Mohammed and other APC demons who feed them lies and propaganda. [/b]
Suffering too dey sweet them.

Very funny, a youth that called Buhari a thief would still queue behind the likes of Okonjo, Patience,, Dasuki, FFK, Metuh, Diezani, Oduah. Wow!

ArmedRobber:
Madam ngozi u re a fool. It is easier to mention ur political foes names like oshomole,aregbesola,ameachi but very hard to reveal to the name of the powerful aide that lock you out.
Who believes the gibberish you re writing self.

Ponmo lips madam. Aunty ngothief iwealoot

Nice observation there. That woman was a disaster, coordinator of economy.

Throwback:
Jonathan was the boss who employed staff that eventually made him a lame duck president throughout his tenure.

I remember vividly how Steve Oronsanye who was a former HoS and then an NNPC board member, was challenging the Ribadu committee of which he was a member, at the presentation of their oil subsidy payment investigation report to President Jonathan.

Steve Oronsanye kept on shouting in the presence of the president and the media men "what if the president said we should submit the report? And so what? And so what? This report is not ready, and so what if the president gave us a deadline?"

Jonathan was just looking like a moro.n while the news men continued clicking away on the camera and video recorders.

Oh Jonathan! He presented himself as a Dundee, so his employees gratuitously treated him as a moro.n in his own presence.

Some mothers truly do have 'em.

Jona is intellectually deficient.

LordAdamX:
Please, if you guys can't read, don't comment on this thread.

She was referring to a normal power play.

This is the summary:

1. She discovered a $6m/yr loophole
2. She and the Minister of Transport implored GEJ to close the loophole as part of port reforms
3. GEJ closed the loophole
4. A GEJ aide who represented the interests of those benefiting from the loophole asked her to tell GEJ to reverse the decision
5. NOI refused and the aide tried to frustrate her
6. The aide eventually stopped when others told him he'd be in soup if NOI reports to GEJ

As to the question of why say so now?

A: The book is titled "Fighting Corruption is Dangerous." It's meant to chronicle all the opposition she received for fighting corruption. Everyone faces issues in their place of work, this is a memoir of the ones she faced.

She's not campaigning for anyone.

-Lord

Okonjo fighting or fought corruption! Lol.

Wiseandtrue:
One person cannot be bigger than the whole senate

Senate should start the proceedings!

I hope they are not promise and fail

Check this from Saraki on the same issue:

“I don’t think this exercise is worth it because we endorsed it to the U.S Congress. It was after we agreed in September that the U.S government now went back to give approval to the Executive to pay to their own government so they can go ahead and sell this equipment to Nigeria".

DOA!
He was even referring to the issue on whether it should be forwarded or not, to House Committee on Judiciary and Co for investigation.

rickyrex:
then buhari should stop acting like if those people in senate gang up against him for impeachment it can't work. Zuma had a taste of it in SA, his won't be exceptional. If they don't want magu. I think they must have perceived something strange which buhari him self is not perceiving. Knowing that senate has a final approval of any of his appointee, he should at least dance to their tones to get what he wants. Tyranny no dey for this level. This is civilian not military.

Yeah of course, that's why Magu is still there in acting capacity. Osinbajo has lectured you guys on that.

SalamRushdie:
Buhari could have gotten a Nigerian bank to tie down order quietly on it's behalf while we await the National Assembly to pass the Budget into law ... Now that Buhari has spent the sum before it gets passes what happens if the National Assembly strikes out that item from the Budget? Will Buhari rfeund Nigeria from his personal pocket ?

And replace it with their ever-increasing constituency projects allowances?

Emytea:
AM XO CONFUSED U MEAN A FIGHTER JET DAT IS SUPOSE TO BE IN A HURRY TO FIGHT BOKO HARAM WILL ARRIVE IN 2020 as i no understand

It is not in the hangar waiting for buyers my friend. We're even lucky that US Congress took pity on us during this Buhari's administration. During Jonathan, he was taking money everywhere looking for weapons to buy but no country would sell to us because of those shitty TI indictments.
Besides, the jets are at the same time for training.

deomelllo:
Yes, in one breath, Nigeria is zoo and a shithole, but in the next breath, they carry Nigerian flag on their shoulders to defend Nigeria and the Nigerian constitution to the death

Very funny but it is a fact

progress69:
[s][/s]

The country is at war and the President can do anything to save the nation. Tell the rogues in the national assembly who are playing with your future if u even have one to sign the budget. Thank u

Esseite:
You seem learned to make such a useless argument regards the constitution of a nation.

What you think of him doesn't matter. Why don't you shove your thoughts about him up your as$? You guys can't be reason with. And to think that people like you were alive when it happened under Obasanjo, Yaradua and Jonathan and didn't raise an eyebrow made me sick. Hypocrites everywhere!

SalamRushdie:
This doesn't absolve the fact that financial laws of our country as regard such deduction were broken by the Buhari govt and this is tantamount to theft . No amount of bickering and spinning by evil zombies can change the facts that Buhari committed an impeachable offence

And wailers just woke up and realised this with Buhari/APC in power? Hypocrites!

2016v2017:
one day in your life you may face more oppression that the one Dino is facing now.it surely will be your turn to cry for justice, but you won't find it, wicked zombie

Stop crying on top someone who is earning over 800 million naira a year doing nothing, Dino does not face any oppression. Everyone has got to be responsible for his or her action.
People who are facing oppression on daily basis are the masses and people like Dino would rather pretend as if all was well.

Okay, let's assume that it indeed happened even though, we know it is a lie. Annnd soooo fvcking what?

troublemakea:
haba this one is a Muslim now...they put that on her neck forcefully

okay if she's a Christian why's she having that head slamming sign on her forehead

Not only heading slamming sign but also yansh banging sign. As if some people don't have scar on their foreheads. Nonsense.

lastmaster:
She's so beautiful

I guess thieves can be beautiful too just nobody wants them as children.

everlymoore86:
If she had dressed like that and made Nigeria proud , u may not have attached Christianity. Stop that religious attribute , It was done from her mind, religion regardless .

See dem hypocrites trying to make sense out of nonsensical deed.

timwudz:
I won't blame u idiot. I blame your father who was too lazy to cross main road to buy condom

It still didn't erase the fact that you lack both. You can give but can't take, you better take leave on nairaland. Mr no brain, no height.

SalamRushdie:
So are the planes here now to tackle Boko Haram? I hope you know the earliest delivery dates for those plane is October 2020 and by then Buhari would be long gone ... I hope you know there are already rumours making rounds not the entire over 400 million dollars was paid to the US can you tell me why Buhari was in a hurry to illegally release funds for a plane who nearest delivery date is more than 2 years away which defeats your excuse that he did it it save lives from Boko Haram ( a Boko Haram Buhari even claims tibheva defeated )

PDP! Power!
If rumours has it that Buhari actually paid 400 out of 462 million dollars taken, it is giant leap for us in Nigeria.

Obj, Yaradua and Jonathan spent billions of naira on power, not an additional one megawatt was added to the national grid.

Jonathan gave 2.1 billion dollars to Dasuki to equip the Nigeria military, not single fighter jet was bought. Instead, every recognised PDP members became billionaires and millionaires overnight.

sorom4:
You are one of the persons OBJ is talking about. Irredeemable!!!

The only irredeemable I see here is you. Still following Obj around like a goat kid who lost his mother. The same Obj who endorsed Yaradua, Jonathan and Buhari. Who still take him seriously these days? The irredeemable like you.
Buhari has paid for those fighter jets, end of story.

timwudz:
Can't blame the scum.. he already exchanged his brain for height

I would say that he's still better than you who lack both.

Wiseandtrue:
Chai this man don become BMCs hero nau

The National Assembly is not even serious self. See as them they drag this matter upandan Are they afraid of doing their job

If you cannot summon him, he was indicted now The next thing na IMPEACHMENT jarè

Impeachment no be child's play. The one yeye senator that mentioned impeachment indirectly, did you watch the kind of welcome party they organised for him at the airport, right here in the south? I wonder which senators from the North will vote yes to Buhari's impeachment!
If impeachment was that simple, Jona would have been first Nigeria president to be impeached. But of course, Niger Delta always threatened fire and brimstone.
Save your brothers in the North.

yns4real:
By Tobi Soniyi

Legal luminary and elder statesman, Prof. Ben Nwabueze (SAN) has written to the leadership of the National Assembly, informing them that the legislature does not have the power to summon President Muhammadu Buhari for violating the Constitution when he paid $496,000,000 to the U.S. government for the purchase of military aircraft, without the authorisation of the National Assembly.

See biased reporting! Journalism in Nigeria is a trash. Why trying to sway the opinions of readers in one certain direction right from the first sentence?

proeast:
The zoo and stupidity are like 5 and 6. The whole world knows that IPOB is the most non violent movement that has millions of followers around the globe. This stunt to divert attention and call a dog a bad name is dead on arrival. It shows that IPOB is really dealing with the zoo and it's barbaric government. That was how they threw a bomb in Enugu to discourage people from coming out to vote during the last election and now this. They should never introduce the same bombing spree they used in destroying themselves up north because it would never work here, we are too advanced for their self destruct tendencies to work here.

But your brother below has something different to say. Who is delusional between the two of you? It is most likely the one above.

You're even proud of bombing your own people, your leader and his innocent kids and others in his household! And when Buhari labelled you guys terrorists, you were crying to Trump, AU and UN but here you are, celebrating crime. Not funny.

Nigerian men are something else can't you guys share legitimate pussy with other guys. I no dey like this kind thing o yansh I yansh make the world sweet jor

Really? Seriously? We can even start doing borrowing, loaning and exchange. Lol.
