Rig 2015 and we go no who plenty pass! |
Ewizard: |
Ewizard:It means election theives must be treated as criminals. You cant steal my thing and tell or teleguide how I should react. It is only those who want to rig 2015 elections like they tried in Osun that would be afraid of Amaechi's admonition. |
who is fayose? mcheeeeew! Tinubu ,the guardian archangel of Nigerian democracy is just being jealoused by the dark forces that are fast loosing their grip on Nigeria. Between Tinubu's foundation of several years n a stupid stomach philosophy of yesterday, who is copying who? The guy looks for every opportunity to deny his inferiority complex. |
Kanwulia:And let's say when you dating me, you realised that your pain is always mine, and I'm ready to make your daughter mine. I treat you like a god and always drive your feelings to beautiful level X, and you then realize that despite your past, I am damn ready to live in every minute with you cos you are my soulmate, mummy won't you play ball? |
aisha2:I actually shed tears when Aisha said so many single mother drop out of school and that she is removing the essay part. Like a hot knife passing through butter, you melt my zuchi'a (heart)! hmmm! just imagine this dunia(world) without women - MG Chitkara says "In fact whatever is beautiful, whatever is lovable, whatever is grand and great and colourful is feminine in its substance and spirit. And if God were to come down into earth,it is always by and through a woman. Therefore, the women are the embodiments of all that is tender, sweet, graceful, beautiful and compassionate." Dear mamas. |
jethro2:bros how much is 30ton of your soy delivered to Lagos? reply Asap pls. |
stagger:And let me quickly tell you that Nigerians , the large chunk of the ordinary farmers ,are not keyed into these programs because of the poor info dissemination n nearly non existent extension services in the country. |
stagger:You are the one misleading the people. Umaru Dikko a PDP minister under Shagari another PDP and NOT our GMB who had put Umaru Dikko in crate in London and was bringing him to face corruption charges here in Nigeria having stolen about $1b and had fled the country. Adeshina is trying n we support him. |
tit:Mrs knowledge, who built the refineries? |
It is good to support any candidate of our choice while at the same time keeping sane boundaries within the Nigerian reality. The enemies of the Igbo, pretending to be more Igbo than you and I, gave the name Azikiwe and Ebele to GEJ to make him look one of 'us'. The costly political folly we have forced other Nigerians to accept is that GEJ is an Igbo. And if he rules till 2019, does it not means ibos have had their turn? Have we really? It will be damn too difficult ,if not impossible,to convince Nigerians whom we have forced to accept GEJ's igboness despite his obvious south south origins! |
PhenomenonVFX:Hmmmmm! |
koolg:The two candidates have written a practical examination called governance at several occasions where most of the issues confronting us now have been exam questions namely: security,corruption, employment, infrastructure,etc Candidate A who has six years to write the exams and Candidate B has just 3 years for the same exam gave the following answers to the set questions: 1. How do you intend to use Petroleum ,our major source of income, to strengthen the economy and improve the standard of living of Nigerians? ANSWER: Candidate A: I will ensure that None of the 4 Refineries work here but to continue to encourage our exporting the crude overseas to create thousands of jobs to foreign individuals and companies . Don't worry about the tax and insurance we pay to these foreign entities to refine the oil, Nigerian masses shall bear the pain since we can't live without oil . We shall remove subsidy and allow independent marketers to operate on our behalf . NNPC shall not keep accounts and we won't tolerate any investigation into NNPC ops even if it is a public office to avoid unnecessary distractions and if money is missing America will know!- it is faster, safer and makes more economic sense. And don't forget I'm from NigerDelta, you maybe thinking why not make the refineries work or site news in the south south to create jobs for our people. My people don't need to work because they have suffered a lot ,rather than being a blessing oil has been a curse. we shall continue to allow foreigners do the refining and we shall sell to Nigerians at a N120 per liter and invest the gains in improving the lives of my fellow Nigerian s especially our youths. Candidate B: I will make the 4 refineries work and encourage new ones so that we can have about 70% capacities. With that, we shall encourage companies like petrochemicals and fertilizer industries which depend on petroleum to be established since the raw materials are available. The advantages of these strategy is 1. Nigerians shall have fuel and other products easily available and cheap. 2. Create millions of jobs to Nigerians either as professionals, engineers, drivers,food sellers, casual workers, hotel and tourism, e.tc. 3. We shall export to other countries and earn foreign exchange. 4. we shall open just an account for NNPC and audit it from time and make such reports available to the public for transparency. 5. Nothing lasts forever, we shall leverage our opportunity in the oil and gas to develop other sectors like Agriculture, mining, education e.t.c while maintaining fiscal discipline to prepare for any rainy day ,Insha Allah. so bros, which candidate will you consider for the 2015 project? |
lateef4me:Bros have you arranged your arsenals against project Buhari? |
bobharro:Mtcheeeeew! |
Truckpusher:Amaechi is our next petroleum Minister and a potential President in the near future. We trust him 'die' because of his carriage,intelligence, experience, democratic credentials, untribalistic stands n national interest. His present job ,Campaign Director, is more important in ushering the needed the change that will save Nigerians from a clueless disaster we have been enduring for about 6 long years now. Amaechi has never told or intimated anybody he wants to be VP except in your imaginations. Please furnish us with any evidence if you have or go get some education. It is those who pen-steal Rivers oil that we can never trust with any public office again in Nigeria, and may even go the Ibori way post 2015 elections. |
smileandlove:I am ashamed say I no too go school! I just dey jealous your chairman sha ! Chai see educated woman, Allah! |
Billyonaire:. Mr Degree , Your Professor PhD from Niger Delta o can't make refineries n petrochemical COs built by 'illiterate' Buhari work nor has he given us new ones . consequently loosing thousands of jobs n tax to only God knows where - an uncommon economic feat that has changed the fortunes of Niger-deltans n Nigerians indeed! Beautiful Nonsense! |
RagaMufeen:Mr Education , when GMB ruled Nigeria how did he do it? Our permanent secretary first lady and a graduate ,and her PHd hub wey they disgrace us every time nko? Abeg no vex me o,! |
Purity1:I think sentiments is when you pretend not to know that GMB has never mince words in condemning BH, when you fail to upbraid elected official when they have deliberately failed in their responsibilities because they are your 'person';when you support hooded unknown armed persons to assume security n thug responsibilities as regards Osun elections and want GMB to 'help' how?; when you destroy democratic tenets by saying 7 or 16 is greater than19 and wants saner Nigerians to take the cross;or is it when both our security reports and d international comm. have linked Alimodu serif to BH, and our GEJ is protecting him from mere investigation NOT prosecution n you want GMB to help; or what is the definition of sentiment sir? because I no too go school like that but Nlanders ll help me out. |
relchange:What is Corruption and what is Political chauvinism? 6 and half dozen? shouting that the North has been in power since and promoting another Ikwere (Nyesom Wike) to be next governor in a multi tribal state like Rivers? Big English n pretending to be sitting on non-existing fence safe Nigeria. We must all join hands bro. |
eye4eye:ips: FELLOW NIGERIANS, IS THIS THE PRESIDENT YOU DESERVE? May the Judgment of God not befall us and our families if with our votes we deliberately return a Govt of Hunger, corruption and death to the Nigerian people. Kindly distribute through your BBM and Whatsapp contacts, enough is enough!! November 2014, Jonathan shocked Nigerians with the news that Boko haram has taken control of 6 towns in 4 LGA’s the height of incompetence in balkanizing the Nigerian state, a week later, Nigerians were blown away by series of austerity measures handed to them for their stupidity in 2011. The naira was devalued at the pretext of drop in oil prices but Nigerians never asked why the Naira never appreciated when the oil price was increasing? If the foreign reserve were not stolen, Nigeria would have weathered the storm for at least 6months like we did during the global melt down of 2004 and 2008, unfortunately, the incompetence of the Jonathan administration has brought grave consequence on the Nigerian people, Inflation and high cost of energy are likely consequences. According to Will Ross of the BBC “He said he hoped a parliamentary investigation would also find out why the country's Excess Crude Account had fallen from $11.5bn to under $2.5bn in a year - arguing that Nigeria's savings are a vital buffer against any drop in the global oil price and without this "rainy day" account, the economy is vulnerable and exposed. October 2014; Ladies and Gentlemen, the President of the Federal republic of Nigeria uses a militant Asari Dokubo for black market gun running, evident from the grounding and seizure of over $ 10m by the South African authorities. September, 2014, The Nigerian Government admitted ferrying over $10m in a private jet for arms procurement, where do we draw the line between money laundering and arms procurement? I asked myself about the recent helos that was delivered by Russia recently if it was purchased in the same manner, agree with me or not, Jonathan is neck deep not just in corruption but money laundering. August 2014: As a result of the unabated corruption in the Nigerian Military, Mutiny of July gave rise to Boko haram declaring a caliphate on Nigerian Soil, Gentlemen and Ladies, Jonathan Has once again made a history of Incompetence. Never in the history of Nigeria have we ceded territories to bandits. July 2014: saw a president who went to sleep while neighboring West African countries battled with the Ebola virus, his negligence paid off when Patrick Sawyer brought the deadly virus to Nigeria unabated. Since August 2012, when the Ebola outbreak began, The Nigerian govt had no single emergency response plan in place. $11m emergency fund and N480m budgeted for the control of infectious diseases in the 2013 budget never got to the Lagos state government, the Nigerian Ebola Epicenter. Still in June, we saw the worst abuse of his Royal majesties powers when he barred APC Governors from attending a rally in Ekiti state with soldiers, meanwhile Boko Haram is still having a field day in the North. The senate revealed to Nigerians how the president Mis appropriated over 685b kerosene subsidy fund May 2014: [/b]left us with this shocking statement “Jonathan, who was asked to comment on the allegations of corrupt practices leveled against some of his ministers, had said that nobody was above mistakes and that if he were to be acting based on reports on each of them, “no one will stay for more than six months in office.” [b]Mere stealing we call corruption" Still in the same month after the corrupt tales of embezzlement and diversion of military budget, the clueless one finally offered Amnesty to a terrorist group, the first of its kind, in the world. An Indication that the Jonathan’s administration is run by a den of thieves. April 2014: reminded us the climax of Jonathan’s administration where he went on a jamboree while book haram held over 200 young girls, hostage, April never ended before the Dizeani madueke’s 10billion naira scam reached a climax. March 2014: just before the centenary celebration where Abacha of all people was a beneficiary, scores of Innocent school children were murdered in Adamawa sate. Feb 2014: saw the illegal suspension of the CBN Gov.at a time the nation was in dire need of foreign direct investment, the Kidnap of the president’s foster father is a realistic score card on his strides on security. January 2014, a presidential committee was set up to investigate the October scandal of stella odua who came with a guilty verdict, yet she kept her job. December 2013: ushered the yuletide of Obasanjo’s “before it is too late”, several corruption allegations and the extremism of the Jonathan’s administration, the impunity of plundering the people’ s common wealth and the tenacity of talking drums like Abati who have earned a reputation in insulting the sensibilities of Nigerians.10 bullet proof vehicles purchased by DICON for its top brass November 2013: the CBN Governor raised an alarm that under Jonathan’s watch, the NNPC diverted $49billion dollars, fellow Nigerians, are we not tired of condoning corruption? October 2013 : ushered a month of corruption coronation in Jonathan’s camp, where the Aviation minister coerced the NCAA to purchase 2 fairly used armored 2008 BMW to the tune of $ 800,000 each. September 2013: President Jonathan took a record breaking 600 men entourage for the UN General assembly in New york August 2013: After the billions of dollars spent in revamping the nation’s airports, skytrax world airport ranking for Africa showed Nigeria didn’t make it to top 10 in Africa neither did it make it top 100th place in the world. Whereas Ethiopia and Mauritania made it to position 9th and 8th respectively, what a shame. July 2013: transparency international rated Nigeria as the 8th most corrupt country in the world. June 2013: World Bank appraised him thus; “Nevertheless, improvements in social welfare indicators have been much slower than would be expected in the context of this growth. Poverty reduction and job creation have not kept pace with population growth, implying social distress for an increasing number of Nigerians. Progress toward the fulfillment of many of the Millennium Development Goals has been slow, and the country ranked 153 out of 186 countries in the 2013 United Nations Human Development Index” the World Bank said. May 2013: The president after wasting tax payer’s money on an entourage as long as the third mainland bridge went sleeping while his foreign affairs minister represented him in his presence during the AU summit in Addis ababa. Just outside President Goodluck Jonathan's office sat 17 ambulances, just in case he or one of his aides fell ill. They were seldom if ever used. No actual health-care facility nationwide had as many, and in fact a few still have none at all. But as soon as a Nigerian newspaper took a photo of the ambulances and published a story about them, they suddenly disappeared -- probably to an underground garage. March, 2013: we witnessed the height of moral bankruptcy when Mr President granted presidential pardon to the biggest criminal in the history of our democracy, Alamesigha to prepare him for a senatorial seat. February 2013: amidst the short fall in crude prices, the president smuggled into the 2013 budget a 2bn appropriation fund for the office of the first lady February 2013: the office of the presidency denied vehemently that the first lady was on vacation in Germany only for them to organize a survival party with tax payer’s money. Is this the kind of leader you want to hold to his words? In January 2013: the erst while madam due process and former minister for education challenged the charlatans of jonathans’ administration to a debate on accountability of $67b as expected, honorable cowards and pen thieves, absconded as usual November 2012: President Jonathan approved 2.2bn naira for the construction of a banquet hall in the villa. At a time our debt profile was all time high As commander in chief, he stood dumb while a military helicopter was used for "kabu-kabu" at oronto douglas father’s burial that error in judgment alone claimed the life of a sitting Governor. and the most brilliant NSA Nigeria has ever produced. October 2012: blatantly refusing to appeal the ICJ’s decision on ceding bakassi, thereby throwing Millions of Bakkasi indigenes into pandemonium refusing to cut down on foreign trips and cost of Governance, contrary to his Nationwide address of 7th Jan 2012. October 2012: Mr president’s administration spent 1.5 billion to patch the 3rd mainland bridge, 4 months later, triple of that amount was expended again on maintenance alone, Talk about waste and incompetence August 2012 : He said our foreign reserve is 42billion usd , is that not only on iweala's notepad? How can you have external debt of 48bn usd and come home to deceive us that we have reserves? How much services that 48bn plus interest annually? Nearly 25% of 48bn. August 2012: Under his watch militants earn 10% of the Nation's revenue, $22.5m, $9m and $12.5m for tompolo, Ateke and Asari as national honors. He twisted facts during the Independence Day speech on his fight on corruption, in contrast to what the transparency international claimed. By august 2012, 2012 budget implementation was just 13% over 5, ooo Nigerian lives gone, Mr president is still trading words and negotiating with boko haram, we remain grateful that a quasi state of emergency came to be, at least I cant imagine an SOE where the State Govs sit tight to control state funds while the FG fight their battle. July 2012 : its 3yrs gone and he is yet to commission from scratch a new power plant worst still fired the only human being in his cabinet who knows his onions in the power sector. July 2012: Mr President earned a congratulatory message for implementing local content policy by importing 200 luxury brands at the cost of over 13.5 million each for a 4 day first ladies summit. While our manufacturing industries beg for patronage. June 2012: Almost all teaching hospitals in Nigeria have no functional dialysis machine, the most sought of this equipment cost just 5m naira. Statistics has it that more than 60,000 Nigerians die yearly of a kidney related ailment, however, he jets out with his cohorts to seek medical help elsewhere. ferma is seriously patching federal highways with a budget of over 80 billion naira, there is no coordination between, the MND, NDDC and Federal ministry of works on road maintenance, same contract is awarded over and over before the job is done. JUNE 2012 : Under his watch, the giant of oil and gas reserves is undergoing its worst energy crisis in the world. tanker drivers alone can cripple his supply network as they wish not to talk of ordinary Niger republic coming to our rescue via imports. In case you have not heard, Nigeria is very close to Afghanistan on security progress under Jonathan's watch. June 2012: Education is in crisis. With adult literacy at 57 per cent, overall illiteracy at 66 per cent and more than 10 million out of the 30 million children of primary school age not in school, no serious government should be comfortable. When 40 million adults in a population of 170 million are illiterate, the country is ranked 161 out of 180 countries in the United Nations Comparative Index of Literacy 2012, and has an unemployment rate of 23.7 per cent, it’s no longer news that only 26% of school leavers gain admission into the universities and only 5% are employed after school thanks to ASUU’s 6 months strike. June 2012: Mr president’s economic blind men have blessed us with all time high of 37.5% inflation though his mickey mouse cbn governor is still claiming 28%, wondering what he will be claiming now that all bankers are at home, naira devalued, unemployment on the rise etc He still maintains a single digit inflation on paper, I dey laugh. Mr president is the only Nigerian president that has not initiated a successful programme even Abacha did better with ptf while IBB with FSP and MAMSA, Mr president is still confused with ''YOU WIN''and SURE-P, with zero benefit to the Nigerian people. on that same vein, Nigeria has the second record high job cuts within the last 2yrs, if in doubt ask the bankers and manufacturing industries. before his ascension into power, the naira was in a sorry state of 150 to 1 dollar today, Jonathan has handed us an unstable 182 to 1 dollar June 2012: The dana crash is a testimony that Mr president’s aviation is comatose, not even the attorney general could challenge the allegations of the dana staff in court, in a national disaster of that magnitude? The girl could have served as a prime witness in a class action against dana Less than 6months of inconclusive investigations, DANA air hit the Tarmac again. Still on military, Nigeria has the most under educated junior military officers, before you ask how, Mr president is too lazy to ask him self why imo with highest national examination enrollments still have the least NDA and police academy enrollments, while borno and zamfara as educationally less privileged, have higher quota than Delta and Anambra put together in military enrollments. Nepotism and corruption at its best Mr President is the only head of state in the world whose wife is a ministry of its own. January 2012: Under Mr president’s watch, a 250bilion subsidy programme rose to 2 trillion naira yet no arrest, no conviction, no sack, the best miserable Nigerians could get was an AWOL attorney general after 7days of protests. Height of incompetence and corruption. Mr President is the only president in the world whose parliament gulps 75% of the national budget as alleged by the CBN Gov. yet they still soak themselves in $625m bribery scandal. Jonathan has not even initiated let alone fulfilling a single campaign promises except the one that he needs to surround himself with brain dead women in his cabinet. Nigerians say thank you Sir, for your 6 wasted years of |
Purity1:Hasn't he played a huge part when he protested against the cabal who didn't want GEJ to be acting president? Are you not aware GMB didn't collect salary when he chair the PTF? Oh may I remind you that GMB presently collect only 10% of his pension ? Please ,What more sacrifice can the next President make? |

Mr president is the only Nigerian president that has not initiated a successful programme even Abacha did better with ptf while IBB with FSP and MAMSA, Mr president is still confused with ''YOU WIN''and SURE-P, with zero benefit to the Nigerian people. on that same vein, Nigeria has the second record high job cuts within the last 2yrs, if in doubt ask the bankers and manufacturing industries. before his ascension into power, the naira was in a sorry state of 150 to 1 dollar today, Jonathan has handed us an unstable 182 to 1 dollar June 2012: The dana crash is a testimony that Mr president’s aviation is comatose, not even the attorney general could challenge the allegations of the dana staff in court, in a national disaster of that magnitude? The girl could have served as a prime witness in a class action against dana Less than 6months of inconclusive investigations, DANA air hit the Tarmac again. Still on military, Nigeria has the most under educated junior military officers, before you ask how, Mr president is too lazy to ask him self why imo with highest national examination enrollments still have the least NDA and police academy enrollments, while borno and zamfara as educationally less privileged, have higher quota than Delta and Anambra put together in military enrollments. Nepotism and corruption at its best Mr President is the only head of state in the world whose wife is a ministry of its own. January 2012: Under Mr president’s watch, a 250bilion subsidy programme rose to 2 trillion naira yet no arrest, no conviction, no sack, the best miserable Nigerians could get was an AWOL attorney general after 7days of protests. Height of incompetence and corruption. Mr President is the only president in the world whose parliament gulps 75% of the national budget as alleged by the CBN Gov. yet they still soak themselves in $625m bribery scandal. Jonathan has not even initiated let alone fulfilling a single campaign promises except the one that he needs to surround himself with brain dead women in his cabinet. Nigerians say thank you Sir, for your 6 wasted years of |
Rilwayne001:ips: FELLOW NIGERIANS, IS THIS THE PRESIDENT YOU DESERVE? May the Judgment of God not befall us and our families if with our votes we deliberately return a Govt of Hunger, corruption and death to the Nigerian people. Kindly distribute through your BBM and Whatsapp contacts, enough is enough!! November 2014, Jonathan shocked Nigerians with the news that Boko haram has taken control of 6 towns in 4 LGA’s the height of incompetence in balkanizing the Nigerian state, a week later, Nigerians were blown away by series of austerity measures handed to them for their stupidity in 2011. The naira was devalued at the pretext of drop in oil prices but Nigerians never asked why the Naira never appreciated when the oil price was increasing? If the foreign reserve were not stolen, Nigeria would have weathered the storm for at least 6months like we did during the global melt down of 2004 and 2008, unfortunately, the incompetence of the Jonathan administration has brought grave consequence on the Nigerian people, Inflation and high cost of energy are likely consequences. According to Will Ross of the BBC “He said he hoped a parliamentary investigation would also find out why the country's Excess Crude Account had fallen from $11.5bn to under $2.5bn in a year - arguing that Nigeria's savings are a vital buffer against any drop in the global oil price and without this "rainy day" account, the economy is vulnerable and exposed. October 2014; Ladies and Gentlemen, the President of the Federal republic of Nigeria uses a militant Asari Dokubo for black market gun running, evident from the grounding and seizure of over $ 10m by the South African authorities. September, 2014, The Nigerian Government admitted ferrying over $10m in a private jet for arms procurement, where do we draw the line between money laundering and arms procurement? I asked myself about the recent helos that was delivered by Russia recently if it was purchased in the same manner, agree with me or not, Jonathan is neck deep not just in corruption but money laundering. August 2014: As a result of the unabated corruption in the Nigerian Military, Mutiny of July gave rise to Boko haram declaring a caliphate on Nigerian Soil, Gentlemen and Ladies, Jonathan Has once again made a history of Incompetence. Never in the history of Nigeria have we ceded territories to bandits. July 2014: saw a president who went to sleep while neighboring West African countries battled with the Ebola virus, his negligence paid off when Patrick Sawyer brought the deadly virus to Nigeria unabated. Since August 2012, when the Ebola outbreak began, The Nigerian govt had no single emergency response plan in place. $11m emergency fund and N480m budgeted for the control of infectious diseases in the 2013 budget never got to the Lagos state government, the Nigerian Ebola Epicenter. Still in June, we saw the worst abuse of his Royal majesties powers when he barred APC Governors from attending a rally in Ekiti state with soldiers, meanwhile Boko Haram is still having a field day in the North. The senate revealed to Nigerians how the president Mis appropriated over 685b kerosene subsidy fund May 2014: [/b]left us with this shocking statement “Jonathan, who was asked to comment on the allegations of corrupt practices leveled against some of his ministers, had said that nobody was above mistakes and that if he were to be acting based on reports on each of them, “no one will stay for more than six months in office.” [b]Mere stealing we call corruption" Still in the same month after the corrupt tales of embezzlement and diversion of military budget, the clueless one finally offered Amnesty to a terrorist group, the first of its kind, in the world. An Indication that the Jonathan’s administration is run by a den of thieves. April 2014: reminded us the climax of Jonathan’s administration where he went on a jamboree while book haram held over 200 young girls, hostage, April never ended before the Dizeani madueke’s 10billion naira scam reached a climax. March 2014: just before the centenary celebration where Abacha of all people was a beneficiary, scores of Innocent school children were murdered in Adamawa sate. Feb 2014: saw the illegal suspension of the CBN Gov.at a time the nation was in dire need of foreign direct investment, the Kidnap of the president’s foster father is a realistic score card on his strides on security. January 2014, a presidential committee was set up to investigate the October scandal of stella odua who came with a guilty verdict, yet she kept her job. December 2013: ushered the yuletide of Obasanjo’s “before it is too late”, several corruption allegations and the extremism of the Jonathan’s administration, the impunity of plundering the people’ s common wealth and the tenacity of talking drums like Abati who have earned a reputation in insulting the sensibilities of Nigerians.10 bullet proof vehicles purchased by DICON for its top brass November 2013: the CBN Governor raised an alarm that under Jonathan’s watch, the NNPC diverted $49billion dollars, fellow Nigerians, are we not tired of condoning corruption? October 2013 : ushered a month of corruption coronation in Jonathan’s camp, where the Aviation minister coerced the NCAA to purchase 2 fairly used armored 2008 BMW to the tune of $ 800,000 each. September 2013: President Jonathan took a record breaking 600 men entourage for the UN General assembly in New york August 2013: After the billions of dollars spent in revamping the nation’s airports, skytrax world airport ranking for Africa showed Nigeria didn’t make it to top 10 in Africa neither did it make it top 100th place in the world. Whereas Ethiopia and Mauritania made it to position 9th and 8th respectively, what a shame. July 2013: transparency international rated Nigeria as the 8th most corrupt country in the world. June 2013: World Bank appraised him thus; “Nevertheless, improvements in social welfare indicators have been much slower than would be expected in the context of this growth. Poverty reduction and job creation have not kept pace with population growth, implying social distress for an increasing number of Nigerians. Progress toward the fulfillment of many of the Millennium Development Goals has been slow, and the country ranked 153 out of 186 countries in the 2013 United Nations Human Development Index” the World Bank said. May 2013: The president after wasting tax payer’s money on an entourage as long as the third mainland bridge went sleeping while his foreign affairs minister represented him in his presence during the AU summit in Addis ababa. Just outside President Goodluck Jonathan's office sat 17 ambulances, just in case he or one of his aides fell ill. They were seldom if ever used. No actual health-care facility nationwide had as many, and in fact a few still have none at all. But as soon as a Nigerian newspaper took a photo of the ambulances and published a story about them, they suddenly disappeared -- probably to an underground garage. March, 2013: we witnessed the height of moral bankruptcy when Mr President granted presidential pardon to the biggest criminal in the history of our democracy, Alamesigha to prepare him for a senatorial seat. February 2013: amidst the short fall in crude prices, the president smuggled into the 2013 budget a 2bn appropriation fund for the office of the first lady February 2013: the office of the presidency denied vehemently that the first lady was on vacation in Germany only for them to organize a survival party with tax payer’s money. Is this the kind of leader you want to hold to his words? In January 2013: the erst while madam due process and former minister for education challenged the charlatans of jonathans’ administration to a debate on accountability of $67b as expected, honorable cowards and pen thieves, absconded as usual November 2012: President Jonathan approved 2.2bn naira for the construction of a banquet hall in the villa. At a time our debt profile was all time high As commander in chief, he stood dumb while a military helicopter was used for "kabu-kabu" at oronto douglas father’s burial that error in judgment alone claimed the life of a sitting Governor. and the most brilliant NSA Nigeria has ever produced. October 2012: blatantly refusing to appeal the ICJ’s decision on ceding bakassi, thereby throwing Millions of Bakkasi indigenes into pandemonium refusing to cut down on foreign trips and cost of Governance, contrary to his Nationwide address of 7th Jan 2012. October 2012: Mr president’s administration spent 1.5 billion to patch the 3rd mainland bridge, 4 months later, triple of that amount was expended again on maintenance alone, Talk about waste and incompetence August 2012 : He said our foreign reserve is 42billion usd , is that not only on iweala's notepad? How can you have external debt of 48bn usd and come home to deceive us that we have reserves? How much services that 48bn plus interest annually? Nearly 25% of 48bn. August 2012: Under his watch militants earn 10% of the Nation's revenue, $22.5m, $9m and $12.5m for tompolo, Ateke and Asari as national honors. He twisted facts during the Independence Day speech on his fight on corruption, in contrast to what the transparency international claimed. By august 2012, 2012 budget implementation was just 13% over 5, ooo Nigerian lives gone, Mr president is still trading words and negotiating with boko haram, we remain grateful that a quasi state of emergency came to be, at least I cant imagine an SOE where the State Govs sit tight to control state funds while the FG fight their battle. July 2012 : its 3yrs gone and he is yet to commission from scratch a new power plant worst still fired the only human being in his cabinet who knows his onions in the power sector. July 2012: Mr President earned a congratulatory message for implementing local content policy by importing 200 luxury brands at the cost of over 13.5 million each for a 4 day first ladies summit. While our manufacturing industries beg for patronage. June 2012: Almost all teaching hospitals in Nigeria have no functional dialysis machine, the most sought of this equipment cost just 5m naira. Statistics has it that more than 60,000 Nigerians die yearly of a kidney related ailment, however, he jets out with his cohorts to seek medical help elsewhere. ferma is seriously patching federal highways with a budget of over 80 billion naira, there is no coordination between, the MND, NDDC and Federal ministry of works on road maintenance, same contract is awarded over and over before the job is done. JUNE 2012 : Under his watch, the giant of oil and gas reserves is undergoing its worst energy crisis in the world. tanker drivers alone can cripple his supply network as they wish not to talk of ordinary Niger republic coming to our rescue via imports. In case you have not heard, Nigeria is very close to Afghanistan on security progress under Jonathan's watch. June 2012: Education is in crisis. With adult literacy at 57 per cent, overall illiteracy at 66 per cent and more than 10 million out of the 30 million children of primary school age not in school, no serious government should be comfortable. When 40 million adults in a population of 170 million are illiterate, the country is ranked 161 out of 180 countries in the United Nations Comparative Index of Literacy 2012, and has an unemployment rate of 23.7 per cent, it’s no longer news that only 26% of school leavers gain admission into the universities and only 5% are employed after school thanks to ASUU’s 6 months strike. June 2012: Mr president’s economic blind men have blessed us with all time high of 37.5% inflation though his mickey mouse cbn governor is still claiming 28%, wondering what he will be claiming now that all bankers are at home, naira devalued, unemployment on the rise etc He still maintains a single digit inflation on paper, I dey laugh.

Babacele:. Also read the passages below and am willing to send you more so that you can be well educated: The friction between Salami and Justice Aloysius Katsina-Alu became public knowledge when Salami alleged that Katsina- Alu interfered in the handling of the court case arising from the 2007 gubernatorial election in Sokoto State, an election won by Governor Magatakarda Wamakko of the PDP but questioned by Alhaji Maigari Dingyadi of the Democratic Peoples Party (DPP). Katsina-Alu was alleged to have told Salami to dismiss the Court of Appeal panel handling the case following ‘discovery’ that the judgment the panel was going to deliver had leaked. One thing led to another and the NJC, headed by Katsina-Alu, recommended that Salami should be promoted to the Supreme Court. But to Salami, it was a demotion, a demotion from the privileged chair of the Court of Appeal president to an ordinary seat in the apex court. Salami rushed to court for an order to stop the ‘promotion’. NJC Investigative Panels Because the allegations involving the heads of the nation’s highest courts would not die, the NJC, this time, headed by Katsina-Alu’s deputy, Justice Dahiru Musdapher, set up a five-member investigative panel to probe the allegations. The investigative panel which was headed by retired Justice Umaru Abdullahi, cleared the CJN of allegations of interference in the Sokoto election case, and indicted Salami for ‘lying on oath’. The NJC set up another panel, this one headed by the Chief Justice of the Federal High Court, Justice Ibrahim Auta, to review the Abdullahi- led panel report. The Auta panel found Salami guilty of misconduct and of perjury. It stated that the allegations Salami raised against Katsina-Alu were false, and ordered Salami to, within seven days, do a written apology to Katsina-Alu and the NJC for ‘false complaints’. NBA Panel findings The findings of both panels ran contrary to those of the panel constituted by the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) which indicted Katsina-Alu over the Sokoto governorship appeal. This variance between what the NJC and NBA made of the CJN-Salami feud from the beginning, may explain the rejection of Salami’s suspension by the NBA and its resolve to have nothing to do with the NJC till the controversy was sorted out. While members of the NBA and much of the general public were still protesting the suspension of Salami, President Goodluck Jonathan did ‘the unthinkable’ when he appointed Justice Dalhatu Adamu on acting capacity, to take over Salami’s job as head of the Court of Appeal bringing to its peak the wide condemnation of Jonathan and the NJC which recommended Salami’s punishment to him. |
anonimi:Justice Ayo Salami retires on july 26, 2013 at 12:46 am in news Facebook Share Twitter Share By Soni Daniel, Regional Editor, North ABUJA — After almost two years of intrigues against his recall, former President of the Court of Appeal, Justice Ayo Salami, has resigned. Vanguard learnt from competent judicial sources that the respected judge had finally opted to retire from service rather than continue to wait for reinstatement as was recommended by the National Judicial Council, NJC, which had earlier approved his suspension. The source confirmed that Salami had already tendered his pre-retirement letter to NJC and that the council had accepted it. According to the source, Salami, who is expected to formally retire from service on October 15, was to proceed on his pre- retirement leave this month. The source, yesterday, said: “It is true that we have received Salami’s pre-retirement letter and notice in accordance with the rules of National Judicial Service of Nigeria. “The development has put to an end any possibility of recalling him.” The retirement notice filed by Salami is expected to pave the way for the emergence of either Justice Dalhatu Adamu or Justice Zainab Bulkachuwa as the substantive FCA judge in the next three months. Bulkachuwa has, however, been acting in that capacity since November 22, 2012. A reliable source said, yesterday, that the authorities were more disposed to recommending the female judge to succeed Salami because of her impeccable record of service so far. It will be recalled that NJC had, in August 2011, suspended Justice Ayo Salami for refusing to apologise to the council and the former Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Aloysius Katsina-Alu, after a panel of the council found him to have lied against CJN. Beyond the suspension, the council recommended to the President to retire him from the Bench, an action that forced Salami to challenge NJC’s action in court. However, in May 2012, NJC rescinded its decision and recommended the reinstatement of Salami, but Federal Government citing several court actions over the matter, distanced itself from the recommendation of the council. Bros can you please tell the world why NJC wanted a supposedly guilty Salami reinstated? |

and I was so shocked to reveal his roles in all the actions that transpired because either way I'm doomed and revealing his own part might just compound my woes and we still need each other to function properly in that house and now that I have been revealed it would be foolishness on my part to reveal his own part of the whole story which would even increase my chances of facing severe punishment.
