My fore fathers formed a country called Biafra and they were made to capitulate and embrace one Nigeria by your fore-fathers. It is a famous victory, and it is now my duty, as an Igbo man, to protect one Nigeria. Integration is important for one Nigeria. Integration implies being able to vote or be voted for in any part of Nigeria.

I have told you that you must remove the idea of domination from your head. Nobody intends to do that. You shame the efforts of your fore-fathers when you reason like that. If Igbos were as domineering as you implied, then I don't think your fore-fathers would have deemed it fit to fight for a United cause.

all of a sudden, these Biafrans are preaching one Nigeria. Isn'tthat now cconvenient?? I thought u all wanted Biafra for yourselves? The Earlier The Better For The Rest Of Us because Biafrans are the ONLY troublemakers in Nigeria.They cannot respect anybody else and that's why they can NEVER rule. Because they can't even get along with each other.let them start one Nigeria in Biafraland first. Idiots!!!!!!

Pls Pastor prof. should tell us the last time he commutted on a brt bus before today.
If he was not doing it before & did it now to solicite for votes, then there is no better definition of hypocrisy than this.

ode! He was just campaigning in a different way. At least he wasn't buying corn or drinking Garri to show he was a common man like the others. He said what he was doing. Barak did it too. Your dumb ass better jump on this moving train Of Change Before You Are Left Behind. Change is coming soon. This man is on fire!!!

Chai, see what NL Don start again o. Emeka and Chukwudi will now start packing their bags for small London(Lagos) now. Soon after 5 years, they will now claim that Lagos belongs to them..........Eko oni baje ooooooo.

Well said Bro.......Ogrogro!!

Obasanjo decimated our foreign debts to single digit number by using his experience and personality to lobby for debt waiver from our foreign creditors. He was already a respected personality before he became prevident. Remember he was Nigeria's representative to the United Nation(talking about pedigree unlike the Otuoke Zoologist). He also increased our foreign reserve to very high numbers(close to 50 billion Dollars) when he left office. Today under Jonathan, our foreign reserve is in single digit from almost 50billion??. These are how you judge an economy NOT about building bridges and refurbishing airport( which is more like a way to siphon money).can you please tell this unofficial Jonathan spokesman??

Soooooo on point. By his own kinsman. I respect Tam David west

who's a doctor I schooled in France

naira land is now littered with too ooooo many kids. Was surprised when the last survey revealed the ages of most naira landers. Do u mean I have been wasting my time arguing with 18-26 year Olds? Thought we are the over 40s People that REALLY experienced Buhari's regime? When we all used to go on the streets with broom and rakes during environmental sanitation?not now that environmental sanitation is like a 3 hour holiday. What about when corrupters were sentenced by military tribunals within 2 weeks of commencement of their cases. Not now that far out and Hembe's cases are taking ages. What about ex governors cases taking years? Do u all remember when drug pushers were executed no matter who your godfathers were?? What about the only time Nigeria ever showed it's might and gut by kidnapping umaru Dikko and put in a box to be transported to Nigeria? Mind you Dikko stole 4billion pounds and was shielded by UK govt .No African head of state Will ever dare do that to there colonial master today.I bet most of these kids were not even sperm cell at this time yet they come here spitting rubbish. What a shame that Nigeria has sunk to this low yet we are making our judgment based on ethnic or party sentiments. Let's all bring back Nigeria regardless of ethnic or party or religious sentiment and vote for the one that can or has done the job before. All these career politicians and their families regardless of party, are made forever . There Children all school and live luxurious lives abroad. Some were my classmates and neighbors. Lets bring Nigeria to its former laurel. Am out!!

Tam David-West hits Jonathan

 advertisement

Says President thinks like a schoolboy

BY CHUKS EZE

Former Minister for Petroleum, Professor Tam David West is an ardent supporter of General Muhammadu Buhari's 2015 presidential ambition. He believes that the former head of state is the only one that can change Nigeria if given the chance to rule the country again. In this interview, the professor, who is President Jonathan's kinsman, describes the president as the worst Nigerian leader in the nation's history and speaks on other national issues. Excerpts:

You have never been known to belong to any political party but the way you have been speaking about General Buhari's 2015 presidential ambition makes it seem as if you have become a politician. Have you?

I see Gen Buhari as an extra-ordinary man, a real man and detribalised Nigerian. He is clean, not corrupt. He is a man of integrity. And I challenge anybody, both President Jonathan and all his supporters, to contest it in an open debate. I believe that only Buhari can fight corruption in Nigeria because he honestly detests corruption. He has been head of state, minister of petroleum and governor of a north-eastern state. He was also the executive chairman of Petroleum Trust fund (PTF) and in all that, he was not soiled in any way. When he was accused of corruption, he challenged them to show the world his corruption. Till date they have not. He is the only former head of state that has no plot of land and house in Abuja and no oil block anywhere.

Whenever he goes to Abuja he stays in a hotel. He stayed clean in and out of office. And I think that we need only clean individuals to lead this country. I can assure you that when elected, Buhari will fix Nigeria within his first 100 days in office. In the first 100 days, the price of petrol must come down from N97 to between N40 and N50. He has done it before and he will do it again. He is honest and you can trust him. He has proved to be an extraordinary Nigerian in and out of uniform; and a leader of rare qualities

So, I support him, I have my reasons for that and I am free to express them. I am not a politician. I don't belong to any political party. But I am APC at heart and I have no apology for that.

Why are you APC at heart?

That's because Buhari is the nucleus of APC. And then when they were going to form the merger committee, Buhari nominated me to represent him. So, I was in the merger committee that oversaw the coming together of several political parties throughout, even as a non-member.

But you see, every effort was made to prevent the merger. They planted some moles in our meeting and we knew them. When they said that the ruling party had offered them bribes, Buhari had no money to bribe anybody. In fact, he said that he was the poorest presidential aspirant. And as was reported in Thisday Newspapers, all aspirants were rated in the categories of deep purse, shallow purse and middle purse. Buhari was in the shallow purse category. He didn't even have N3 million to hire a hall to launch his campaign.

He said he is the poorest of the poor presidential aspirants. So, he told them that he doesn't pay anybody and that they should use their money to support him. I was in Abuja during his declaration and I can tell you that the Eagle Square was packed to capacity. Many people couldn't even enter. I support Buhari because he loves Nigeria. I support him because I'm confident that he is the only man that can take us to the promised land. I have said it many times that I have worked with him and that he leads by example.

But many Nigerians are concerned about his lack of funds. Is it really possible for anybody to contest the presidential election without enough money in present day Nigeria?

That is a very good question. I believe 100 per cent that it is possible because Iforesee a paradigm shift in Nigeria. The country is learning to put more emphasis on integrity than money. People are beginning to see that what we need is the quality of the individual - one who can put food on our table, help our children to get good education, good jobs and all that. As for those who share money, the money they are giving you is still yours. It is the money that had been stolen from you that they are giving you back to corrupt the system again. Why should an honest person spend millions and billions of naira just because he wants to be elected president?

The moment he brings the money, know that he is a crook. So, if he is able to bribe his way, with say, N10 million, he knows that within one month, he can get 10 times that figure. I believe that the June12 issue showed that we can win election without those unnecessary diversions like the Muslim-Muslim ticket issue. The Muslim-Muslim ticket of Abiola and Kingibe paid off without any problems during the build-up. Abiola was advised against it but he insisted, Thank God he did. And rather than create problems, everybody voted for him. So, I say it again that 2015 will witness a paradigm shift in this country. People will vote for their conscience.

It was alleged that Tinubu's overbearing influence on APC was the reason for the collapse of the planned Muslim-Muslim ticket for the party. What's your reaction?

That's a lie. I think Tinubu is a good man but they are giving him a bad name. They give the impression that Tinubu is the prime mover in APC. But he is not. I told you how the merger came about. In fact, designing the party logo took a lot of time before they adopted the broom as part of the logo. Forget the logo for the merger. They accommodated the broom because an election was coming in the South-west. So, Tinubu pleaded and explained that the common man could easily associate the party with the broom as it had been in the ACN and that it would be better than changing it to an entirely new logo. So, the broom was adopted. Even the colour combinations of the party were not Tinubu's making.

Also , the rumour that Tinubu was struggling to be running mate to Buhari was not true at all. They had deployed Tinubu to pitch against Buhari but they failed. Tinubu is a good politician and he came to realise that Buhari enjoyed massive support. They say Muslim-Muslim but are we going to be better if it were Christian-Christian? Buhari is not against Christians. Three of his cooks are Christians, his confidential secretary is a Christian and his second security officer is a Christian. As PTF boss, three out of his five directors were Christians. I have all their names but would not want to embarrass them by disclosing them but I mentioned their names in my new book. Idiagbon's wife was a born-again Christian. It's also in the book. So, if Buhari does not like Christians, I would not agree with him. But do those that used Christianity to cause confusion go to church or are they Christians?

But why is Buhari always branded a Muslim extremist?

The simple reason is that it is the strategy that can sell fast. There are religious beliefs, religious fundamentalists and religious extremists. Buhari is a religious fundamentalist and being a religious fundamentalist is a positive thing. A religious fundamentalist is a person who believes in his religion firmly. If you are a Muslim, you believe in the Quran and if you a Christian you believe in the Bible. I am a Christian fundamentalist and I feel proud to be one. I am not an extremist. And Buhari is not one. They only use that to scare people but they have failed. They tried corruption and failed. And they now introduced the religious extremism thing.

What is your take on the recent happenings at the National Assembly where lawmakers were seen scaling the NASS gate and even allegedly tear-gassed by the police?

It's a big shame. You see, President Jonathan said he has Ph.D but he thinks like a secondary school boy and I am not being rude. Why should he take that chance? Tambuwal has defected and he knows he cannot touch him. PDP never wanted Tambuwal to be Speaker. He only emerged speaker through the support of the opposition parties. And he is a Speaker for Nigeria not for PDP. He left PDP and it's paining them. They wanted to impeach him and it didn't work out.

So, I was so sad watching lawmakers being made to climb the NASS gate. What the police did was bad, yet, they were not able to stop the lawmakers from entering. They still went in, sat and did business. What Jonathan did was out of desperation but by the grace of Almighty God, the God that loves Nigeria, I believe we'll get PDP out in 2015.

But both the Presidency and PDP in separate statements denied any involvement in the whole issue. They said the police acted independently. Is that true?

Don't mind them because Jonathan can deny anything. When a company that was working for him went and built a church in his village, didn't he deny? But later on when they commissioned the project, he was there in the church.

It was alleged that General Buhari said he was not going to contest again. Why is he now contesting?

I know of ten instances where Jonathan made a u-turn. He told the world that he was going to serve for only one term as president. Obasanjo said he signed a contract that he would serve only a term. Is Obasanjo lying? Didn't Jonathan and his wife deny that Chibok girls were not abducted? When the President accepted that it was true, he said he knew where they were. Here is a man who said he had Boko Haram in his government but cannot identify any of them to weed off. Integrity must matter and I think that it will come to that.

When I was commissioner for education, somebody came and gave people huge sums of money and they took blood oath that they will vote for him. But after taking blood oath to vote for him, they voted against him. That will happen in 2015. Nigeria will vote for integrity not money. I have told Nigerians when they bring the money, they should take it. It is their money they are giving to them. But after collecting the money, they should vote for the person they think can serve Nigeria better and better the lots of the nation.

PDP has been accused of being desperate about the 2015 general election. If that is true, what do you think will happen if PDP loses?

Nothing will happen. Desperation is a tool of fear. The President is afraid. If you are sure of yourself, you cannot be desperate. I heard about a certain threat by the leader of Niger Delta Volunteer Force that they will strike if Jonathan is not re-elected. But that organisation no longer exists. It died long ago. So, I say it again that nothing will happen if Jonathan loses and he will certainly lose.

There is growing concern over a security report that some are stockpiling arms across the country particularly in the North-east. What does this portend for a country that is preparing for general election?

We all know that there is high rate of illegal possession of arms across the country, but nobody has monopoly of violence. Only God will decide for us and by His grace, the election will come and go. PDP will lose and those threatening that Nigeria will burn if Jonathan is not re-elected will see that Nigeria will not burn. I strongly believe that by the grace of God, the coming election will be based on merit, not on money. Jonathan just gave national award to the baba who designed our national flag. Something he should have given him long ago, he did not.

Now that he is blind and in the last stage of his life, he's giving him an award and life salary because election is coming and he's contesting for re-election. Why didn't he give it to him three years ago? He went to Lagos and changed the University of Lagos to Moshood Abiola University but didn't realise that the name was given to the school by an Act of the parliament and only parliament can change it. They opposed it and finally, he backed down. When I was commissioner of education in 1979, the president was in the secondary school. And unfortunately, he is the worst leader Nigeria ever had. The country is more divided under his administration. But they will lose in 2015.

Many people are of the view that the president is naturally a nice person and means well for the country but that there are so many sycophants around him who usually thwart his plans for selfish reasons. Do you believe that?

That's rubbish. Machiavelli who wrote The Prince over 500 years ago said, 'For the priest that needed to be wiser when advised , he should be wise himself'. You can take any advice but you can tell the people to hold on so you can check well. During the last fuel subsidy crisis, he swore not to rescind his decision. But didn't he later? Nigeria is the only country in the world that makes provision for fraud in its annual budget. Anybody that earmarks N1 trillion on petrol subsidy is already making provision for fraud.

What does the crashing oil prices at the international market portend for Nigeria?

They are claiming that it will not affect us but that is stupid. How can falling oil price not affect us? 95 per cent of our foreign reserve was derived from oil while 85 per cent of our budget is financed from oil. If the price of oil has come down, how can it not affect you? It is like somebody on N2,000 monthly salary and suddenly there is economic reason to reduce his salary to N1,000 a month and he says, no it will not affect him and his family. Isn't he deceiving himself?

But the thing is that the oil price will still go down further. Why I'm saying that is there are a lot of things that would not let oil price rise. If there's problem in the Gulf, oil will not come in and then prices will rise. But now, the problem has subsided and they are sending oil into the market. America is no longer buying oil from Nigeria and they used to be one of our biggest customers. Now, they have changed the benchmark to $73, and like I said, the oil price will still go down. So, we should get ready to tighten our belts because it will affect us badly and people will react against it.

You don't take Nigerians for granted on the notion that Nigerians cannot demonstrate for long. Jonathan cannot pay N18, 000 as minimum wage but he was quick to approve N5 billion for himself and the vice president. Is their stomach digesting rock? They will go by the grace of God. In every country of the world, poor people outnumber the rich people and that is because God loves poor people. So, any country that is not taking care of poor people has a bad government which must go.

Are you not concerned that many people may ascribe your unalloyed campaign for Buhari's presidential ambition to the fact that he gave you an appointment as head of state?

The argument could have been valid if it was "why would he not support Buhari who gave him appointment and made him a millionaire?" But I was earning less as a minister than I was earning as a professor. When Buhari appointed me in 1984, I was earning N18,000 a month as a professor and consultant. But as minister, my salary was N15, 000.

But why did you accept the job?

Is it not a greater honour to serve a great country like Nigeria, to serve my country? I worked seven days per week. Buhari appointed me without knowing me. So, I had to work to justify my appointment. If they say I am supporting Buhari because he appointed me, why am I not supporting IBB?

When Buhari left, General Babangida made me minister too. But I dislike Babangida. And I told him that I don't just dislike him but that I detest him. I support Buhari because I am convinced that he is the best for Nigeria, not because he gave me appointment. The values we share made us friends. I worked with all of them. Babangida is a lazy reader but give Buhari a 500-page script by 9:00 am, by 11: 00 am he has finished reading it and has come to discuss it with you. But it will take Babangida one week. So, I'm proud to support Buhari because he can change this country for good. And by 2015, I would surely be vindicated. I am very certain that Nigeria will be much, much better and the people will be happy if Buhari is elected.

Looking at all the problems INEC is experiencing in the distribution of permanent voter’s card (PVC), does it seem to you that the commission is really prepared for the 2015 general election?

It is good that those problems came out early. The witch or wizard that is by the village cannot kill any more. If everybody identifies you as a witch in a village, you cannot kill again. So, the PVC problem has been discovered very early and INEC cannot kill again. Jega has to do well because he ought to realise that he will go after this election. He has to do all it takes to see that the election is clean and acceptable. If he fails, it will be difficult for him to either go back to his university or the general public and he will be in trouble.

General Abacha was to make me chairman of INEC and people were already coming to congratulate me. I had not been contacted then but I told them that I knew I would not take the appointment. By the grace of God, everything boomeranged because those around him wouldn't want somebody like me. Aspirants who throw money around are thieves. The bribe money they offer is public funds. Why should one take the trouble to spend all his millions to buy votes for him to serve his people? It's because he knows that when you elect him, he would make it up in no time.

As former minister of petroleum in this country, how would you rate the sector under the present administration?

The petroleum sector is a disaster and Jonathan cannot sack Diezani for reasons best known to him alone. This is a lady who voted as much as N10 billion to hire a private jet. When I was minister, I could not use the Nigerian Airways. Travel allowances for ministers under Buhari was just N200.

You can spend N200 without accounting for it. But if you spend more than that, you must give convincing account of how you spent it. If you are traveling outside the country, the estacode was controlled by the Central Bank. I once had to pay for the expenses of my delegation when we traveled out at a certain time because they did not have money to buy presents for their wives. So, estacode was strictly controlled by the CBN and not Buhari.

What is your message to the Nigerian public as 2015 general election approaches?

They should vote for their conscience. They should pray to God to help them to know which of their leaders has integrity that can move the country forward and not a man under whom parents and their children will suffer.

Some people are of the view that Gen Buhari borrowed N24 million from a bank to purchase his nomination form for the presidential election because he was unable to manage all that he earned as head of state, PTF boss and his monthly pension as former Nigerian leader. What's you view?

It is even complementary to him. If he had amassed wealth as head of state or PTF boss, would he have borrowed? It shows that he has no money. I remember when they laughed at him that he could not bring out N10 million to rent an office to campaign for election.

If people were going to get it for him, they will say he is being bribed. Those saying he didn't manage his money well are saying rubbish. I am interested in facts and figures. He never earned salary as PTF boss.

He refused to take salary and only took allowances. How much was he earning as head of state and how much did he earn as sitting allowance at PTF? All the former leaders who are building universities and other big businesses across the world are they doing that from their own money? So, it is more honourable for him

orty-nine-year-old Fred Obi was about to board an Ethiopian Air flight from Abuja to Tel Aviv, Israel with a strange cargo allegedly concealed in his stomach when the law caught up with him. He had ingested 1.594kg of cocaine.

But he was not the only one boarding that same flight with the intention of transporting narcotics they had ingested on November 22, 2014 when they were arrested by men of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja.

Also arrested were Ekechi Ferdinand, 36; Okonkwo Paul, 20; Azubuogu Obumneme, 30; Okechi Anthony, 34; Anozie Henry, 34 and Okafor Francis, 51.

NDLEA spokesperson, Mr. Mitchell Ofoyeju, confirmed that the raid which was headed by the agency’s commander at the Abuja Airport, Mr. Hamisu Lawan, would turn out to be a revealing one.

The suspects, who were said to have been arrested and isolated, were soon made to excrete the drug they had ingested.

“The last of the suspects eventually finished excreting the drugs in his stomach this morning (Thursday, November 26),” Ofoyeju said.

Ferdinand excreted 1.616kg of cocaine, Paul – 1.103kg, Obumneme – 1.450kg, Anthony – 935 grammes while Henry exctreted 874 grammes of cocaine. The oldest of the suspects, Francis, on his part excreted 1.167kg.

All the suspects, except Obi, were said to have Hong Kong as the destination on their tickets.

NDLEA Chairman, Ahmadu Giade, said that the arrest of the suspects was an added victory to the war against drug trafficking in the country.

He said, “Coming at a time when commanders of our agency are holding a summit to move the agency forward, this is a welcome development.

“Having seven suspected drug traffickers on a single flight is a reflection of the desperation of drug cartels.

“But this will prove to them that the NDLEA has the capacity to stop drug trafficking no matter what method they employ.

“Fortunately for the suspects as well, our arrest has saved their lives because for the suspects heading to Hong Kong, it is clearly stated in their visas that drug trafficking in Hong Kong attracts the death penalty. Nigeria has equally been saved from an embarrassment their arrest would have caused if they were caught over there.”

Meanwhile, the NDLEA has been urged to concentrate on intelligence gathering to identify the sources of wealth of drug barons and stop them from gaining control of real estates, banks and other legitimate businesses in the country.

In a paper titled Establishing an Intelligence Database: Process and Importance for Sustainable Drug Control delivered at the 2014 Command Officers’ Summit in Kaduna, the state Governor, Mukhtar Yero, called on the agency to seek elaborate collaboration with stakeholders in the war against narcotics.

According to a statement by Ofoyeju, Kaduna State has presented a bill to the state House of Assembly to prohibit the abuse of lawful substances like Zakami, an intoxicating local plant said to be used by youths in the state.

Giade said, “Drug barons are constantly devising new ways of smuggling drugs to markets around the world. Most significantly, modes of drug concealment have assumed a more sophisticated pattern. We must continue to embrace change and maintain our superiority ahead of drug syndicates.

“Let us identify better, faster and innovative ways of getting a task done. Let us learn how to prevent and manage crisis. Let us identify barriers to effective training, anti-drug abuse counselling, information gathering, diligent prosecution and proffer solutions on the way forward

abi o. Until we start killing and lynching them , they won't listen. You keep telling your host that you are landlord, it will be Rwanda all over again. This is the major reasons igbos are killed everywhere in the north. They cannot keep their fat mouth shut. REMEMBER that the killing fields will be opened one day. A 5 years old knows that u cannot taunt your host anywhere in the world but these ungrateful foreigners called biafrans cannot learn from history. IF Jonathan ever lose the election, the igbos will be the biggest victim. Let themm Keep running your empty mouth for now.

InyinyaAgbaOku:
you know, they don't know anything.
Its bad enough that the few rich persons from their side will all collapse without political support, dangote too.
Moreover, igbos don't list their assets and worth that that much again to avoid the ibeto story, so you don't even know how much they have to start with.
People like innoson worth more than you can ever know .
Aside ifeanyi uba, the igbos on the Forbes list of richest Nigerians have nothing to do with oil.
Igbos, no be today. The truly independent Africans .

wowww.all these noise just because 2 igbos are listed. You guys need deep deep and deep reorientation. Are you guys suffering from inferiority complex. U guys have been cursed since 0000BC

Sunnybobo3:
Product of failed contraceptive. Lagos is no man's land, now get that into your oil filled skull.

I don't see any Igbo igwes in Lagos, all I see are Baale's and oba's all over Lagos. Demented and ungrateful bunch of Morons. It's just in the blood since centuries ago

Sunnybobo3:
Product of failed contraceptive. Lagos is no man's land, now get that into your oil filled skull.

that's all I expected your kind to say. Because what I said is factual. You guys will be slaughtered again soon. Keep running your mouth. The Deltans hate you, Hausa is a no no and the only tribe that TRIED to tolerate you , the Yoruba's culture is being disrespected. I understand,it's in your genes. The only tribe that kidnap their kings for ransom(an abomination), the only tribe that haggles with its host everywhere, the only tribe that produces baby factories everywhere(babies for as low as 50k), only tribe that never like to stay and develop their region(they are everywhere I turn) wish I can do the killings myself......

Sunnybobo3:
A picture says a thousand words!

Quotes like this were what started the genocide in Rwanda when you have ungrateful set of pPl from that part of Nigeria. Did your leaders teach you how to be ungrateful. The same thing you guys did in the north and they sents your bodies back home in bags.I dont see Idomas, Binis , hausas fight or dis respect the existence and culture of their but these people. ONE DAY, you guys will come to roost and you will see total killings of Ibos again. Don't you guys learn from history. Now you are taunting your host with a picture that portrays your host as landlords of dilapidated houses while you the guest are landlord of mansions? Does that make sense? Listen, don't get carried away by your brothers in festac or alaba because you guys are just a tiny 5 percent of the population of Laos and I will laugh when the slaughtering starts. A wordis enough for the wise ooooo. Ungrateful Bastards

I think we Africans like to cry victims too much. Ebola first surfaced in Congo few years ago but no African leader could be proactive enough to fund these major researches by western drug companies for a cure. But a foreign company that none of its citizen is affected went ahead to fund a research for a cure to an African epidemic. Isn't that a shame? We are here pointing fingers at the Americans for not helping us while 20 billion DOLLARS is still unaccounted for?that could easily have even funded the cure for many more diseases We surely deserve what we get. America and Spain quickly airlifted their sick citizens , that's what REAL countries do for their own. Our president has a fleet of 18 presidential jets but cannot boast of 1 medical evacuation military planes like those used by these countries. Africans wake the heck up and stop crying foul. Idiots!!

Mogidi: APC sympathiser disguised as social critic.

Soyinka became partisan as soon as Olaokun Soyinka became a commissioner, I no longer take him as a social critic though he still pretends he's one.

but the question did what he said made sense? concentrate on the message a bit

cococandy: Wise move on their both parts
P Diddy was a good rapper tho

P diddy is not even tagged. as a rapper. He was wack but an excellent entertainer like dbanj. Great stage presence

Imoy: Freemason tins

I am a 3rd degree master mason, the hand sign is not Freemason sign. I laugh at all these fake Freemason hand grips and tokens.

cococandy: This is very nice.
I always thought he'd do better at something else apart from music.
Business could be his real life calling.
And meeting the richest people in the world can help him set of on the right foot if any of them would be willing to invest in his business.
That would be awesome

All that noise he calls music ain't it at all.but then he pro'lly was using it as stepping stone to bigger things and getting popularity for his brand name when he does begin full scale productions

I wish him success in this new part of his life

that reminds me of P Diddy. He transitioned into business by making use of the noise. though he wasn't really talented in music. God bless him

ayukdaboss: I just feel really sorry for the system.

here we go sore losers .blacks and racism. Though the tackle was hard, its part of the game as football is played with your foot so it can happen but using your teeth to attack a player is just too far from football. they can never be the same.

VICTORCIZA: SOMEBODY TELL THE AMERICANS TO SHUT THE Bleep UP AND SIT THEIR GAY CURSED BOTTOMS DOWN. HOW MANY YEARS DOES IT TAKE AMERICA TO GET OSAMA BIN LADEN??
I HATE HYPOCRITES!!!
AMERICA LEAVE US ALONE AND MIND YOUR BUSINESS. HOW ARE WE EVEN SURE YOU GUYS ARE NOT SPONSORING BOKOHARAM?
THIS IS NIGERIA. GEJ IS A NIGERIA, HE IS LOVED BY MAJORITY OF NIGERIANS! THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS!!!

but it was your President that tried to impress the world by writing an editorial and paying public relations company. he deserves the response.

bigtt76: At the end of it all, all we get to see are obese kids, trouser-sagging kids none with any sporting skills and endjng up being bullied by other less privileged kids on the street.

Dowen College for one, located in Lekki has an overflooded draininage system passing in front of the building, no standard football pitch or others ....just the classroom building and hostel opposite it. Their food os not even catered for by The Place or any other exotic eatries ...na some cheap cooks for inside lekki der ...some blocks away from the school, they cook their food ..so why spend 2 million naira?

OGROGRO!

op is so on point here, Nigerians deserve what they get . most of the idiots ranting here close to the poverty level and are still supporting bad governance . pls lay aside any party sentiments and think like concerned Nigerians for once. An impeached governor in any sane clime, clears himself first before contesting. That's the reason why some of these countries are doing better than us. Only in Nigeria will you appoint Bode George's wife as NDLEAHead without her having any law enforcement background Boss Boss . in mid exoised world, that position is given to a DRUZ CZAR who is experienced in that position.

This man is one of the nicest individual I have ever met. We met by chance at the Intercontinental Hotel New York where I was a manager. He was minister of tourism at this time.He sought me out and we engaged in a discussion about Nigeria.People please get to know folks before you start insulting them. Thank you

agbameta: Your village square schools obviously didn't teach you villagers social studies and civic education..
