SalamRushdie:
Just a simple bible verse I have quoted and you already panicking bro...the message is not for you but for those who need to know the importance of voting a good man instead of certificate fraud , age cheat and sectarianist

The good man you are talking about was chosen against all odds by the so called certificate fraud, age cheat and sectarianist. It is the so called that set the tone for this admin.

The good man is a simple extension of the so called certificate cheat and if you know governance and economics, you should then know the good man could never, in our wildest imagination, achieved the reversal of trade deficit in 2 months without the structure been in place. And, remember, we are talking of Q4, 2016 statistics, not Q1, 2017.

So let us face facts instead of living fallacies, we should give glory and honor to whom is due. The buck stops at the table of the so called certificate cheat for everything that happens during the next 4 years at the federal level.

SalamRushdie:
"When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice;
when the wicked rule, the people groan---Proverbs 29 vs 2"

This bible verse explains all Nigeria has been going through since Buhari took over and the little respite the economy is seeing since Osinbanjo started acting as president ..

MY people our God is not a liar so in 2019 Vote wisely

It is a surprise how support of a former ineffective stealing government can block and render the thinking faculty of Nigerians to functionless mushroom.

The write up says we have positive net trade balance and you can only see wicked rule of Buhari in that? So you would rather we continue the trend of negative net trade balance that brought nation to this state of comatose under the previous administration.

Maybe the subject is too econo scientifical for you to understand. It simply means we are selling more than we are buying - that is called savings. If we continue the trend of buying more that selling as we were doing in the past, we will get deeper into the mess we are in now. Do you understand? Comprenez vous? No comprende?

And, talking about 2019, it is the impatience of people like you that is heating up the polity of this nation and holding the country back. The nation voted for a government for 4 years, less than 2 years into the 4 year term you are expecting magic. You simply don't understand that to correct the mess we are in will take more than 4 years. All you need to now is to watch the indices and see if it is trending in the right direction. When the trend is given to you, you ignore the statistics and you are quoting irrelevant bible verses.

Go and check this for a fact, it took Obama almost 8 years to revive the economy of US from the impact of 1996 Depression. During that period many Americans lost there jobs, lost their homes and became destitudes in their homeland. Once they saw the indices under Obama were trending in the right directions, they persevered and continue to support the government programs (though it was hurting them then). Today they are back to what America used to be.

Nigerians are totally opposite of these people, we are always looking for immediate gratifications. That is why many fall Ponzi schemes (recent MMM, Nospetco and Umana-Umana in the past) and many are involved in so many shady deals and all ritualistic misadventures. That is why many will support thieves who are stealing their future and future of their children blind because of peanuts these politicians will dole out to them. The implications of these is skewed distribution of our commowealth, that is why majority are in this abject state of penury while a few stacked up millions if not billions of dollars in their account. You can imagine one person hiding about $9.7m in ramshackle in Kaduna, just imagine how many mouths that kind of money will feed if properly invested for the common good. That is just one tiny tip of the iceberg.

Think of these facts and decide your way forward.

I decided mine and I know you can guess it.

Ngokafor:
...The truth of the matter is that more and more people are seeing all this 'corruption fight' as the charade and circus it is...The way and manner this apc jokers are going on about this 'fight' will not in any way and manner stop corruption..They are all stinking of corruption and looting massively in Abuja and beyond as we speak,so why are they hounding only PDP Politicians??..No matter how corrupt a politician is,as soon as he runs to Apc,he is free and clear,and you want to tell me buhari/apc are fighting corruption??

...I do not support politicians at all because THEY ARE ALL THE SAME....but if any admin must fight corruption,do it holistically or shut-up and quit insulting our sensibilities. What even happens after these arrests??..NOTHING!..What about Dasuki and co??

..That is why even the internatiinal community thinks they are jokers and rated Nigeria as the number one most corrupt country on earth in their latest rating.A spot Nigeria had not attained in a while ...Selective justice to play to the gallery is no justice...That is the point.

We both agreed ALL POLITICIANS are THIEVES. Then the options facing us is between a group of politicians that is led by someone who says "Stealing is not corruption" and the other group who is led by someone who says "I will fight corruption with all I have" and he is doing so, be it one sided as you allude (I do not agree to that though - Andrew Yakubu is not a PDP man so are many others).

Dasuki is in jail and he is singing like a bird as we talk. And all he is saying is he got orders from GEJ to disburse our commonwealth like ATM machine that does not require card or pin. The money he singularly disbursed was meant to fight Boko Harram (a group that PMB government has now fought to almost non-existence)

Check you facts, International Community is in full support of this government fight against corruption.

I am not in support of either APC or PDP, but the choice is your between the two groups of leadership of the two parties.

[quote author=MrSocrate post=54095197][/quote]Your comment is not unexpected knowing we have abundant paid agents, family members, friends and beneficiaries of "stealing is not corruption" on the social media.

Either way, we have a new sheriff in town. His name is PMB. All your wailing won't change that.

MrSocrate:
non'sense. these guys are desperate to ensure that pdp is crippled economically so that by 2019, the party will be too brutalised to wresttle power with apc

Why can't you for a minute move away from seeing things in coloration of political parties, and see that these thieves whether in APC or PDP are stealing your future and future of your children blind.

The only reason you might not agree with me is either you part of the thieves, you have benefitted, still benefitting from the stealing or you are completely stupid.

CROWNWEALTH019:
Go for WISDOM UP-GRADE

What more wisdom is greater than this statement.

Take it as gospel truth, truly, truly I say unto thee, you will see different shades of Fayose and hear different tunes him before the end of this year. This is just the beginning.

Take from someone who knows Fayose from his exploits in student union politics at Federal Poly, Ilaro. He is no different from Omisore - they are both Bullies and Cowards.

ddippset:
Fayose is a joker. The karma awaiting him begins with the 2018 governorship election. Did he think he would get away with the coup he executed with Jonathan, Obanikoro and Momoh? And then his constant attacks on the APC and the President. Fayose should make no mistakes about it, the APC will go all out to take ekiti like their lives depended on it.

Thank you my brother. I can bet Fayose will start singing a different tune before the end of this year.

Remember, he was the first PDP governor to congratulate PMB. All the noise he is making now was because he was rebuffed by PMB and APC. He will soon start begging and singing praises of PMB towards the end of his tenure to protect his ass because he is going to loose the protection he is enjoying now.

I will remind you when the change of tune starts. Take it from somebody that knows Fayose from his days as a student of Federal Poly, Illaro.

SWG25:
There are only two cities in the south west - Lagos and Ibadan. Others are towns.

Yenagoa is a town not a city. The only cities in the south south are port Harcourt and calabar, others are towns.

Do you know the definition of a city at all? And, do you know the difference between a town and a city?

nabegibeg:
Northerners, corrupt people ever liveth

At least the Northern Followership are exposing and shaming the corrupt thieves within their Leadership. What is happening with the Followership of the South-South and West? Celebrating and Protecting the thieves within their Leadership. A good and unfortunate examples are the cases of Ibori and Tompolo in South-South and Bode George in the West.

The begging question is who were leading the country in the recent time when the northerners were stealing? OBJ (West) and GEJ (South-South). How can you then shamelessly call the Northerners "corrupt people ever liveth"?

How much was found in PEJ's acct? $15m and still searching. How much in Deziani acct? $153m and still searching. How much with GEJ's cousin? How much with the NIMASA guy? How much with Tompolo? the list can go on and on.

You should learn to engage your brain before making tribalistic comments that are not based on facts.

By the way, for your records, I am a Yoruba man (an Afonja as labeled on Nairaland), so you know I am not coming from the point of tribalistic colorations.

seunmsg:
He should have been arraigned before a sharia court so that if found guilty, his arm will be amputated in accordance with sharia law.

I totally agree with you.

Sodijan:
Dey just wanted to ruin his career

Who are the 'they'? The 'they' to the best of my knowledge is Seun himself.

It is either he is mentally unbalanced or he has a death wish from all the stories about him in the news.

Buhari4dullard:
NA ONLY PDP PEOPLE DEY FACE WAHALA.

NO BE BUHARI BRIBE PERSON OVER EIN CERTIFICATE?

Are you sure of your statement or you are quoting a report? We should, as a responsible member of the society, desist from quoting hearsays as categorical statements thus making them look statements of facts. That is called lying in a court of law, and, it is the height of irresponsibility.

Your statement should have been "No be Buhari them say bribe person over ein certificate?"

JamieBlog:
A man who drank an insecticide two weeks to his wedding, because of the heartbreak MMM crash gave him last year, is dead. The heartbroken man who in turn left his bride heartbroken, died on Monday evening around Kubwa in Bwari Area Council of Abuja.
Image result for man in a morgue
A family source who pleaded anonymity, said Adakole died from stomach complications as
a result of the poison he took last year.

“Yes, he died this evening. His body has been deposited at the mortuary as we speak,” he said.

On efforts to recover the deceased's money, the source had this to say;

“No, he was not paid. In fact, he threatened to arrest his guider before the stomach upset returned last week and we rushed him to the hospital where he finally died. I don’t even think MMM is back, if not Adakole would have been the first they would consider. We attempted to reach them to recover Adakole’s money but they kept telling us to provide help to get help; obviously, the scheme has crashed."

Daily Post's effort to speak to the deceased's fiancee, whose name was given as Chenemi, proved abortive, as she was crying uncontrollably alongside other family members, at her family house in Dutse. Their wedding had been rescheduled for May this year, before his demise on Monday.


http://www.jamienaija.com/2017/02/about-to-wed-man-who-drank-insecticide.html

It is a shame that the dead guy was greedy enough to invest in MMM, but it is a tragedy that he killed himself.

No matter what, nothing should be bigger than life because when there is life, there is hope. Now for the guy, it is judgment at the court of Baba God.

RIP to the dead, God will grant the family and would-have-been-wife the strength and fortitude to bear the loss.

I did not mean to say YOU compared Fayose with Ojukwu. I was just backing your submission that there is no way to compare the two. It is like comparing SLEEP and DEATH.

ebosie11:
Fayose was a guest on AIT where he spoke of Ali Modu Sheriff's claim that PDP governors are with him and more.In part he said.....

"Ali Modu Sheriff said the Governors are with him, let him call us to a meeting maybe he will see anyone.

"God forbid, to sit with Alimodu Sheriff again in my life.

"One day I know that I will be the Vice President of Nigeria or possibly President Federal Republic of Nigeria".

Anybody want to take a bet on this assertion?

iykofias:
Fayose, reminds me of a fearless man called ojukwu. Stories will b written abt them long after they've transgressed.

The stuff of folklore. The last heroes of our time.

It is highly demeaning to compare an "attention seeking thief" to the Great Odimegu Ojukwu that led a war against Nigerian military might supported by Britian and held his ground for close to 3 years.

Let's wait and see how fearless Fayose will be in 2018 after he would have lost the immunity he is enjoying now.

Three armed robbers were shot dead and one arrested after a heavy shoot-out with policemen in Calabar, Cross Rivers state. The hoodlums were killed after they were apprehended by security operatives during a daylight robbery at Mayne Avenue Calabar.

According to Ifere Paul, the infamous robbers have been terrorizing the area before meeting their Waterloo. Residents of the area trooped out in their numbers to catch a glimpse of the dead robbers.

#UnaMumuDonStart

Knowing Bash Ali's antics in the past, I can say it is highly plausible that he can block the door to the minister's office. The word is HIGHLY PLAUSIBLE.

The guys is just an attention seeker like Fayose. If he wants to fight (commit suicide or a perform comedy in the ring) at 60, must he be sponsored by Government?

Abeg, somebody should help attached the picture of Jacob Zuma with his fingers denoting 5&6 for Bash Ali and Fayose.

WHY WE HAVE RECESSION:

* Tompolo was paid 13Billion.
* Ex-CDS,Alex Badeh dug a pit toilet to hide $32m.
* Patience Jonathan is claiming $31m, she has sued the Nigerian state.
* Femi Fani-Kayode took 740M.
* Dasuki used trucks to load over $35B from the CBN.
* Olisa Metuh took 400M.
* Aziboala, GEJ's cousin took 6B naira.
* Nenadi Usman took 3.5B naira.
* Fayose took 3B naira.
* Obanikoro took 4Billion naira.
* Olu Falae took 100M naira.
* Tony Anenih - 400M naira.

* Jolly Nyame-2.4B naira.
* Joshua Dariye-700M naira.
*Nyesom Wike stole #4b.
* Diezzani with $20 billion missing oil money?
15 billon dollars missing from arms fund, 10 billion naria, converted to dollars and given as gift to delegates of PDP Nation convention, Bafarawa collected 3 billion for spiritual purposes , 12. 7 billon naria for deceased NEPA staff grew wings and disappeared, 20 billion dollars missing from NNPC accounts, 23 billon naira as bribe to INEC staffs to rig the general election. The list is endless. They only left what they can't carry or unable to lay their hands on. The list continues.....
Recession didn't just happen, people looted Nigeria into RECESSION happening....

NOW HEAR THE THIEVES:

1. I acted based on Jonathan's instruction - Dasuki

2. I didn't give order - Jonathan

3. I collected 350M from Dasuki for consultation - Iyorchia Ayu

4. I only collected $30,000 from Dasuki not N100m - Bode George

5. I got N4.6b from Dasuki for spiritual purposes - Bafarawa

6. I got N650M from Dasuki for my Abuja burnt office - Thisday Obaigbena.

7. I got N2.1b from Dasuki for publicity - Dokpesi

8. I got another N100m from Yuguda he didn't tell me from where - Bafarawa.

9. I gave N100m each to Odili, Jim Nwobodo Bode George and others - Yuguda

10. The president asked me to change N10B to foreign currency for PDP delegates - Dasuki

11. My boss asked me to get $11M from the CBN - Dasuki's account officer.

12. I got order from above to pay Tompolo N13B for Maritime university land. - Nimasa DG.

13. 950m was shared in my house -- Shekarau

With all this looting and many more revealed, some people are still shouting no sign of change yet, they even say it's political persecution.

But I believe, it is the right thing to do.
If you believe too, send this to other people to garner more support for the fight against corruption and looting in our nation. There must be consequences for such crimes otherwise Nigeria will not develop.

God will bless you beyond your imagination for reemphasing these facts to Nigerians.

We seem to have unbelievable short memories and we are now blaming wrong people for our predicaments.

PassingShot:
Yet some shameless, unreasonable nitwits blame PMB for the recession. Instead of protesting to make this people face swift justice (jungle justice I prefer), they wail and moan and curse the man trying to deliver Nigeria from the shackles of these wicked looters.

Shame!


I am dead sure not a single tribesman of this shameless looter will say a word to defend or support him. But when it comes to that tribe we all know, you'd hear "witch hunt", "propaganda", "lie", etc. It's like they're cursed to be that way.

Thank you and God bless you for this your wonderful input.

The way some Nigerians think as seen in their comments is unbelievable. I think the cells of their brain go to state of comatose when it comes to politico-tribal issues.

The poster on bad leadership is wrong. Before Bad Leadership, there must be Bad Followership.

The flow is Bad Followership to Bad Leadership to Corruption to More Bad and Pulverized Followership. It is a vicious circle. It takes a great and determined Leadership to break the circle.

We the Followership always like exonerate ourselves from the problem of Nigeria. The truth is we deserve what we get. QED.

Just bomb, bomb, bomb, destroy, destroy and destroy your infrastructure and environment while other regions are developing their region. The North and West are using your oil money to develop their region while your South-South leaders are keeping your own share in their various personal accounts in America Europe and Asia.

I totally support your advise.

Egbesu People, it is time for bombing and destruction your facilities and pollution of your lands and waters while Lagos/Ogun/Ondo will continue to explore oil, Dangote will continue refining the same oil in Lagos, North will continue to refine oil from Sudan.

Bunch of senseless idiots that will destroy their facilities to support those who stole them blind.

The "omo ale", "ole", "akotileta" FKK is just looking for relevance. What trouble is Nigeria in because PMB extends his holidays on health ground?

We have a system that says in the absence of President, the Vice President takes over. Even if the President should die now (God forbid), the Vice President takes over. So tell me what trouble is Nigeria in?

Omo-ale jatijati, go and return all our money you stole. Kuje is waiting for you.

A good piece but the Igbos are hard to relate with, if you disagree with them they hate you. They don't know compromise can be winning strategy only win by force.
They are very intelligent in most areas of human existence but lack the wisdom to sometimes adopt a different strategy.
Until a few wise leaders emerge from among them with a different way of thinking they will always be full Of hate.
Yorubas are flexible and know when to stoop low to conquer.

We need to ask Niaraland op why they always block us from trying to unite southern... If to really like this write up... send an email to maryeze796@yahoo.com. I will get in touch with you

I do not believe in forced breakup of Nigeria. The truth is when we stop fighting the north, the fight will shift to between the major tribes (Igbo vs Yoruba, Yoruba vs Ijaw, Igbo vs Ijaw etc). After then, it will be minor languages (Kalabari vs Ikwuere, Efik vs Ibibio, Urobo vs Isoko Egba vs Ijebu, Awori vs Yewa etc). How far will go with the breakup?

I think there is huge strength and advantages in our diversity. We just need to manage and harness these advantages and build on the strength doing things that build trust in each other.

If we decide to breakup for whatever reasons, it has to be peaceful because we have so interwoven. I know many people that have married across the divides. I know Youbas who are married to Igbos and vice versa, there Igbos who are married to Hausas and vice versa and there are also Hausas who are married to Yourbas and so on and so on. How do we manage that if the breakup is not peaceful.

henrydadon:
I did not celebrate buhari

And did not vote him..

Something am very proud of

You are entitled to vote for anybody of your choice. I voted for Buhari because I believed and still believe he was the better of the two main contestants. I will still vote for him if I am given the same options. The only thing that will change that is if I see a better candidate (somebody in the mold of Peter Obi). But the truth is, it will be very difficult for somebody in that mold to get there because of corruption of you and I - we always select the highest bidder, someone who can dash out the biggest amount from the ward levels to the presidential primaries.

But comment was not addressing the person we voted for. It was addressing what will change our situation in Nigeria. If we do not become responsible citizens, even if we have 10 Obamas or 10 Obis ruling us, our situation will simply not change. We hurt ourselves more that our leaders hurt us. We will cheat and break laws at the slightest opportunity, why are we expecting anything different from our Leaders with all the opportunity at their disposal?

He was deported

Let that sink in

Am actually ashamed that some people where celebrating this guy..

Just made me realise that there is zero hope for nigeria.

The protest on the 6th of feb ..let me see how far it will take you

guys. As far as the youth who plan to protest aint in

government....nothing is gonna change..let the youth create a political party and vote themself into power that the way
forward..

The evil old men that are in the power positions are gonna remain there for the next 20 years..that how it gonna be..look at obasanjo since he became an ex president he has been controlling other politician like puppet..same thing for atiku he is busy hugging babies all over the state we all know what his intentions are..

WE NEED A REVOLUTION! !!

I lost hope in Nigeria and Nigerians long time ago when Bode George completed his prison term and was released. I happened to be around Kirikiri area that day. I saw a trailer loaded with musical instruments and crowd of people that were there to welcome him and celebrate his release. I also watched the 'thanksgiving service' on tv and was shocked by array of political leaders that attended the service.

So, I am not one bit shocked that Nigerians are now welcoming and celebrating Ibori. Very soon, he (Ibori) will be controlling the politics of Delta state and will continue his stealing by proxy just like Bode George is doing in Lagos.

It is just a shame of the highest order. I do not foresee any change in our political terrains and our situation in Nigeria with the kind of morally corrupt 'Followership' we have. A wise saying in political science said 'in a democratic dispensation, the Followership deserves the Leadership they get'

The unfortunate part of the story is that we the Followership do not recognize that we are the architect of our 'sufferations'. We keep on blaming the Leadership. In the recent years I can not remember any government we have not blamed. If Obama is brought to rule Nigeria, we will celebrate in the beginning, but after 3 months we will be back to status quo because he will not be able to perform miracles we will be expecting. Remember how we all celebrated Buhari when he was elected. When the reality dawned on us that he will not lie to us and he can not perform miracles, our music suddenly changed.

I am sure the same will repeated itself when Buhari completes his tenure.

The revolution we need is simple, let us be a 'responsible citizen' of Nigeria. I can bet you majority of us are not responsible citizens of Nigeria and we are the ones failing ourselves. That is the change (revolution) we need.
