"His aides however brought him back as it appeared that he had forgotten that he had walked past where his official vehicle was packed". This got me laughing. He was completely caught unaware to the extent that he didn't know that he had passed his vehicle. Law of karma.

Nigeria logo and Mastercard logo exist side by side on our national ID cards, what an absurdity of the highest order!

I'm really disappointed by this man's rant. Baga midnight massacre readily comes to mind.

graciousme: The Doctor died and his patient lived? Reward of greediness or ignorance? The ECOWAS guy should be detained for this wicked act. why are this ecowas people doing this nah?

You don't have any case against him. He reported at the hospital, but the greedy/ignorant doctor decided to hide him and treat him. Even the doctor's wife is also guilty, the doctor didn't contract and die the same day. Why the cover up all along but only reported after he died?

size38: Nigerian politicians are the worst politicians on earth. If Ribadu was d EFCC chairman then, was it not on d consideration of him being a PDP member he was appointed by OBJ? What edwin clark meant is that Ribadu would have turned his eyes away to corrupt PDP governors then as against doing the job he was appointed to do. If a man like Edwin Clark who was a delegate at d just concluded national Confab could reason like this at his age, nigeria is forever doomed.

I thought I was the only one who noticed the senseless argument put forward by the senile man. So as EFCC boss, he shouldn't have brought corrupt PDP governors to book. Old age is catching up.

Edykul: Gdmornin to u all.I want to share my experience with those of u here dat will b goin 4 ur verification nd certificate sighting soon.We finished our own last week nd text messages were sent yesterday to successful candidates.We discovered dat d people taken were those who filled d Lekki Business school form.All my friends dat filled d form hv been taken.PLease those of u dat hv nt done ur verification should fill d form since dat is likely d criteria they r usin 2 select their candidates.Tanks

N10,000 from the monthly stipends of the interns was the primary reason why Falsecom came on board. Once you refuse to fill the form for the so called "business school", you just have to look for employer somewhere else.

DAVIDOLAWALE: Can we still register for this GIS Programm or is closed, nairalander tell me

You can still, https://gis-tool.wyesurep.gov.ng/

Kweenliz007: Is caused by those Nigerians dat feels govt are supposed to be doing everything for it citizens! Y do we pledge to be patriotic? rhetorical question. I hate the average man mentality

Nigerians are among the hard working people on this planet, suffering and smiling set of people. How can you you say Nigerians want government to provide everything for them when in reality, Nigeria government has never provided anything for her citizens.

Justcash: No documentary can be filmed in Nigeria without the help of Nigerians. After all said and done, the TERRORISTS are NIGERIANS, the MILITARY MEN are NIGERIANS, the GOVERNMENT is made up of NIGERIANS and the VICTIMS are NIGERIANS. No foreigner can get anything in Nigeria without collaborating with Nigerians. Nigerians are the authors of their own misfortune.

So basically, all atrocities by the Nigeria Army and corruption by the ruling elites should be buried by the concerned and worried citizens in order not tarnish the good image of Nigeria? One day, your entire family will be wiped out by Nigeria Army just like what happened in Baga or what happened in Channel 4 video and the rubbish you are posting here will come back to haunt you. How can a sane person be advocating press gag, saying people shouldn't report extreme human rights abuses, atrocities committed on a large scale? In your confused little mind, you think this is the meaning of patriotism? You are not sane man.

overhypedsteve: You people should be careful the kind of things you post. It is not till you enter sambisa with Koran to join boro haram that's when you become a terrorist, we also have the media arm of terrorism. How can you claim that the nigerian soldiers ran out of ammunition , been after the DHQ have clearly stated out what really happened. You still insist on peddling derogatory information about men who sacrifice to protect you. I feel shamed by your attitude but, i promise you that, i am doing my research about the media arm of boro haram and i feel very compelled to think that you may be working for those bastard. Your names will be submitted to the right authority and actions would be taken. Imagine ! So you feel the DHQ which stand as the sole authority on this issue is not competent enough to say what happened. Be warned my man, be warned.

Mr man, who do you think you are trying to deceive here? Just yourself.

henrysam: Haters will continue to amaze me. Adult can take care of themselves. But kids do not have control.
Op must u criticise every efforts of the government blindly.
I leave you to your conscience.

The poster of this post deserves Nigeria Dumbest Award of the year. Are you referring to adults that always shake hands? Have you ever left your rabbit hole to attend a political rally or watched the last gathering of unemployed Nigeria graduates? Did you see how tightly they were packed together? Did you even try to educate yourself on this disease? I doubt it.

Only when Boko Haram declared its caliphate, I guess he is tired of politicisation of the Boko Haram issue. I remember when Jonathan and PDP governors had meeting in Abuja over Boko Haram issue and general insecurity in the land sidelining APC governors including governors from Yobe, Borno and Adamawa States who are directly affected by the insurgency just because they are in opposition. What a president, shame.

tuasefemi: This is what we hear everyday and our own military are on the run... Dear Lord, what's happening

Effect of sustained age long corruption.

Chibaba247: And I believe dat nigerian army hav killed more dan 27,bt d press wont report it,bt rather choose to report d military casualties, 9ja ooooo

Like seriously, you meant what you post up there? You guys have issues with Nigeria media.

The silly OP and his propaganda theory should come and comment on this thread on the latest development in Gwoza.

san316: The writer of this piece is either f@@lish or blind to the realities of things. I stay in the barracks and have access to reliable info on the military campaign in borno. I also have a son of my neighbor who escaped from the beseiged gwoza. The situation is nothing close to what the op is spewing. Infact, the OP should just STFU and stop politicising the whole issue. Kapish?

The guy is under an illusion.

How are we going to solve this problem of Boko Haram when in the first place, we are still living in denial? Whether the news that Boko Haram hoist flags is true or propaganda, how does that erase the fact that about 100 police cadets are missing after Boko Haram attack? How does that erase the fact that our dear and ever brutal Nigeria Army are unable to reclaim Gwoza?

July stipend just came in.

Ogomsb2k: But they said d trainin is not compulsary, and it didnt stop any one frm bein verified, if u dnt want d trainin jux indicate and if u dnt want forcecom they wil take u back to d pool for other employers to find u. All these wer explained by d cordinator, so it is now left for u intern to make decision. Accordin to them, none is compulsary

Why would you be dropped because you are not interested in the training?

If you don't agree, they won't take you as intern. That wasn't the reason why FG initiated the scheme. The programme is meant for the graduate to have working experience while being with the employer and possibly being retained by the employer. SUREP GIS is not meant for your employer to look for avenue to to be getting one third of your stipend through dubious training. The programme is about acquiring field experience not about useless skill acquisition training.

Forcecom is a fraud, I have said it before. If you are okay with the arrangement, you can go ahead. But on a second thought, why can't you guys deceive them? I mailed SUREP before about them but no response, May be I will do that again.

samobaba4u: What is their offer? Pls, share d experience so we in other states can prepare our mind. And is it possible to back out now?

Their offer is one-third of your stipend every month in the name of dubious skill acquisition training! If you decline training, I don't think you will be shortlisted for documentation.

July 2014 "timesheet/feedback" is out, inform your employer to fill and send it on time. Timesheet for a particular month is what they use to prepare stipend of that month.

SSCE, and so.

Blackteeth: The way this country is moving at times it is not surprising to hear the word WAR every now and then. Many Igbos and yorubas on Niaraland have been calling for Nigeria to split. We don't really know how that would happen but one of the certain means it happens is through war. So far, yorubas and igbos on Nairaland have been flexing their muscles polished with all the grammar to show the north they are better than they are. But are yorubas and igbos really ready for the big show? I doubt if they are ready for some reasons.

Yorubas and igbos are definitely wealthier and more educated than the northerners, and with education comes this ajibutter kind of lifestyle and a love for good life. This is definitely not the kind of people you will expect to be in the battle fields to defend their land. Rather they will take the next flight and bus to seek refuge in Ghana or Cameron to continue their pursuit of living the good life. So how many would be left to defend the homeland? In contrast with the yorubas and the igbos, hausas and Fulani do not have much of that educated class of individuals desiring to live the good life. Most of them are poor so they ain't scared of living or dying. These guys are just perfect for the battle fields.

Secondly we all know the reputation of the average northerner as violent individuals and ready to slaughter. If the slaughter when the nation is not at war then how much do you think they slaughter when war eventually breaks out? These guys are Muslims and we all know how the religion induces a powerful jihad kind of spirit to fight vigorously to the last man. Are these the kind of people that the educated ajibutter yorubas and igbos want to engage in a war?

Another thing is the disunited south. Yorubas and igbos hate each other. So the north can attack the yorubas first and igbos will relax be laughing at yorubas as pay back time for betraying the Igbos. By the time the north are done with yorubas Igbo's become next. By then the south has been weakened after defeating the yorubas. Whatelse will Igbos do? Fire one or two 1968 ogbunigwes and they are exhausted.

I am pleading with Yorubas and Igbos to tone down cos this war doesn't look like it would favour them, or else if they keep barking unnecessarily and eventually it happens, I would not be surprised if the northerners utilize the opportunity to Complete what Usman Dan fodio couldn't complete more than a century ago.
Me I don prepare my escape route ready.

The fact that you mentioned "Muslims" to back up your point, you are mad.

coolcare: is the timesheet weekly?

Your employer should know what timesheet and feedback forms are.

Hungry youth. Instead of them to fight for employment, they are in Abuja just to receive crumps.
