The Dangote factory you're talking about has stopped production due to the tomato scarcity. Try to read the news from time to time.

But I thought Tompolo said he didn't know them.

DivideUs:
if an acting president is commander in chief then he is by all means well within his powers, the question then is, is he?

An acting president is not commander in chief. That title is not transferable except upon the death or deposition of the sitting commander in chief.

You must be high on some cheap drugs if you think Osinbajo will call for a meeting with service chiefs without informing Buhari first.

APC is desperately tryin to save face wen they v lost all goodwill. If d economy was gud, wld any bank or firm dream of sacking workers? Buhari sef

They do conduct lay offs every single year though. It's part of business in Nigeria.

aloziedaya:
Yes I know how difficult things are in Nigeria right now. Everyday I read and hear from the media news and articles about Nigeria that trouble the heart.
Life in Europe is better in terms of basic needs as humans, but socially it has decayed beyond imagination. The future of our children is at stake here socially and morally. The western culture is eating deep in our children.
So I'm considering bringing my family down to Nigeria to train them in our own culture.
Do you think I'm making a mistake?
Please your candid advice.

For the sake of your children you better not do it. You can train them in our culture over there too. Just put in the extra effort.

slap1:
You brought it up.

Yeah I did in a general sense, but you chose to take it personally. Besides I thought we were going to leave it at that.

slap1:
I get your point, but you may not be more intelligent than I am. Let's leave it at that, shall we?

Suit yourself. Intelligence is an arcane concept anyway.

slap1:
They have made a mess of our commonwealth so they run to the 5 percenters to fix it. From auditor-general to director of budget.

Proudly five percent.

Pastor Ben Akabueze is not part of the so-called 5%. He is a loyal, long standing Tinubu boy and I can assure you that he voted for Buhari. Intelligent people do not define themselves by their collective tribe, instead they define themselves by their individual achievements.
Pastor Ben knows what side his bread is buttered on. Please leave him alone, let him enjoy the fruits of his labours and his achievements.

ZombieNation:
And what's stopping them investing in rice farms in their region?

Secondly, how can rice production diversify your economy? Can Nigeria compete in rice exports with the likes of China, Japan, India and co?

Why not invest in what you knew how to do best which is cocoa farming.

You have the climate and conducive environment to farm cocoa which will yield more revenue than rice.

So why not invest in your cocoa sector?

The rice is for consumption in Lagos not for export. Leave Lagos state for Lagos state to govern. Maybe your state govt might appreciate your advice.

Insulting your religion is not a crime! Almighty God is the judge and not you my friend. Learn not to take matters into your own hands lest you offend God even more than the ones who insult.

nameo:
And how do you know that?

Lmao. Are you praying for cancer for the president? E go tire you.

jomoh:
What happened to Fayose's stomach infrastructure?

One week worth of rice cannot be the solution to five months worth of hunger.

Congratulations to Dr. Alex Usifo. Age is never a barrier to achieving one's dreams. God bless you richly sir.

Who gave the order?

Just my that she.

Who owns the school?

cjrane:
My question is, all these crises Buhari started by referring to Nigerians as 5% and 95%, what has it gained for him or benefited Nigeria?

So all of this display is just because Buhari said 5%? What cry babies! Their feelings must have been really hurt by that statement.

perryy:
There is no country like Nigeria and there will never be. Think I'm lying go and ask Awolowo.

Sorry bro, I just checked and the UN says otherwise.

mmsen:
Human beings will always have differences and until they confront them they will linger. As painful as war is it allows people an opportunity to establish an order and release their anger - it sounds unpleasant but that is the unfortunate truth. Just as it isn't good for individuals to stay pent up, the same is true for individuals.

People have the right to self-determination, as per the UN. Borders are typically made by men and should be redrawn by men if need be.

You say that South Sudan was better under the old system but in the long run, they will be better. Nothing worthwhile happens overnight and this current generation may not get to benefit but the children and grandchildren will be better off once a system has been put in place.

By your logic Singapore should have remained anchored to Malaysia because secession is not the answer (actually they were booted out of the union). Likewise the United States should have remained a British colony because nations should not look to break away. History shows that your assertion is wrong. Nations need a commonality to work - the experiment that is the European Union, a system designed to stop the Europeans from slaughtering each other is floundering as a result of their numerous differences.

As for Nigeria, the southern states are already better off in every indices and would excel if left alone by the north that favors a destructive unitary system of government. How much better would they be if the north went its own way? Who would suffer? Certainly not the south.

With all due respect my brother, the examples of the United States and Singapore are not relevant because those were not secessions. The US fought for independence from Britain and Singapore was kicked out of a brief union with Malaysia which lasted only two years. By the way, the break up of the Czech and Slovak Republicans is also not an example of secession. That was a negotiated separation. The problems in the European Union are not related to secession either because they are a union of already sovereign states.

Examples of secession are what happened in the south of the United States during the civil war between 1861 and 1865. I'm sure most Americans now agree that it was a terrible mistake. Also recently, Scotland voted not to secede from the United Kingdom. People now realize that bigger is better in today's world in terms of market size and political influence.

Whatever problems Nigeria may be having, the solutions can be worked out and breaking up the country does not have to be one of them. We as a country are by far greater as a whole than the sum of our parts. We really have nothing else going for us apart from our size. The oil is becoming useless. However, a large cohesive economy will always be an advantage.

mmsen:
South Sudan is a new nation, a region that was neglected for many years, whose resources were used to build the north.

But in the long run they will be better off.

Their war is not over. They've splintered into different factions fighting a new civil war in their new hardly settled country. The first thing they did was to assassinate their new president who helped fight for their independence. All of this in a struggle for control between so called brothers. Apparently they were better off under the old Sudan. Secession is never the answer.

mmsen:
Sudan is not 'thriving' - far from it. They're now crying to the Americans to life the sanctions that were imposed as a result of their compliance in harboring Islamic terrorists and their abuse of citizens in Darfur.

They were fine when the South Sudanese were financing their adventures but have been in decline ever since the South Sudanese fought and won their independence.

And how are the South Sudanese doing? Sudan and South Sudan which place is worse off?

GeneralShepherd:
In the North, kidnapping of young girls is fueled by ideology that is inspired by a particular interpretation of the Quoran and the life of prophet Muhammadu (S.A.W)

On the other hand, in the south these acts of crimes are not based on any ideology. These criminals are also condemned without reservation, unlike in the North where these acts happen with the tacit support of the elites and religious leaders.

Things like that were happening before islam ever came to the north. It's not based on any ideology it's based on human nature because we are all fallen sinful human beings whether north or south. The same judgment applies to all. That's why the bible says; judge not let's ye be judged.

richidinho:
Ok bye

Have fun.

wolfslair:
Wrong president of the north
He could not go to ogoni

I recall Jonathan also canceled a trip to Borno during the height of the BH crisis. I guess that means he was president of the south abi?

richidinho:
Tompolo is the president of the NigerDelta, there is nothing wrong with him spending the proceeds derived from crudeoil from his country

There is no such country and there will never be. Don't fool yourself.

richidinho:
What makes you think Tompolo did not go for same clinical evaluation?

I knew someone like you would say that. No problem, when he comes back from his clinical evaluation in Libya of all places he should report to the nearest EFCC office to continue with his fraud case. A court of competent jurisdiction has declared him wanted and issued an arrest warrant for him. Tompolo is a wanted criminal while Buhari is the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. There is no basis at all for comparison.

richidinho:
Why is buhari on the run to London

He's not on the run he went for a clinical evaluation.

ZUBY77:
Not at all.
The Christian Faith requires that he removes his cap during prayers.
He must respect other peoples faith.

The Christian faith does not require that anyone removes their cap during prayers, that is a lie against Christianity.

dahmie2013:
Did u just type "just", pls don't pray 2 experience it. It's terrible, not 2 talk of an old man like Bubu.
It is well with him.

That was for those who were prematurely planning his obituary, he's not going to die from an ear infection. He'll be alright.
Thanks for your well wishes.

keally:
i thought they denied it before now. believe anything said by APC at your own peril.

This is the first official statement made about it. And it's just an ear infection nothing serious really.

alabiyemmy:
Na your money?

Yes na my money. And na your money too. You need to wise up my guy.
