ifeduba1988: what do you mean by source?
We are ready to fight again. Our father done it before

Afam4eva: [size=14pt]Their LOGO looks wayyy finer than that of the other APC. It shows that they did their homework very well.[/size]

MAYOWAAK: In my estimation,one of the greatest Nigerians of all time.

FlirtyKaren: The jeep has been delivered to the couple. And as the gov said: Mrs. Annie Idibia, nee Macaulay is a daughter of Akwa Ibom State and the gift of a Prado SUV from her governor is only a gesture of love and goodwill.

CFCfan: The Presidency, increasingly desperate, has again tried to justify the pardon it granted, Mr. Diepriye Alamieseigha, describing the convicted former Governor of Bayelsa State as responsible for an increase in the barrels of oil Nigeria now sells on the international market.

The Senior Special Assistant to President Goodluck Jonathan on Public Affairs, Doyin Okupe, made the wild claim at a press briefing in Abuja on Thursday.

“I thought he was going to say the man has refunded millions of dollars he stole when he was in office,” an angry reporter who covered the briefing stated.

But Okupe told the astonished journalists, “In truth,nAlamieseigha since he left prison has been working strenuously and silently to assist the President stabilize the amnesty in the Niger Delta region.

“Alamieseigha is a foremost leader of the Ijaw Nation, and his political and stabilizing influence in that region has impacted positively on the overall economy of the nation, bringing crude oil exports from the abysmally low level of 700,000bpd to over 2.4million bpd.”

Okupe, the attack dog who came to the presidency last year with serious ethical questions of his own, added that Alamieseigha, who is still wanted by British authorities, can be credited with ensuring that the blood running through Nigeria's economic artery is not cut off.

Seeking to find comfortable parallels on which to hang the issue of the discredited former governor and a president whose credibility continues to plunge, he likened Alamieseigha’s pardon to that of the late Obafemi Awolowo and that of the late Ikemba Nnewi, Chief Odumegwu Ojukwu, stressing that they were once pardoned by the state. He forgot to say that none of those men stole from children and the poor who were under their charge.

Okupe continued to insist that Alamieseigha has repented, and that he "lost his position, forfeited the property illegally acquired and had also demonstrated enough soberness after he served his sentence."

talktimi: look at this foolish fool that has a problem with proper english, who are you in the polity of your local govt that you will make an utterance and it will have a binding effect on the generality of Nigerians ? You're not even relevant in your local ward and you're here ranting like an underfed puppy because of cheap internet. You're among those who prefer watching baba suwe instead of news that is why you're backwards information wise. Go and listen to yesterdays news and hear the commendation the senate passed on GEJ for sacking Demuren except you want to tell me that the entire senate or even its committee on aviation is made up completely of ibo people. Nonsense and for your information you dimwit I am not an ibo person so I'm above your petty tribal mediocrity, I believe the ibos on nairaland can defend themselves creditably well when faced with tribal scum of the earth like you. Good day scallywag.

2mch: It is progress when it is all Igbo's but marginalization when not. You lot know how to really play victim. Well get ready for progress when it comes. We hope you dont complain. The problem is, you think everyone is as foo*lish and dumb as you when you blatantly play the tribalistic card. Just know that Stella has done a job that will be undone in 50years. Even the northerners are not this blatant.

ikwere militant: @baysol whom re u calng destructive hands.I can see hw u yorubas re keepng ur garage clean but fashola will nt see dat,nd besids its u yarabas dat constitute a gud percentage of d filt at ladipo for yarabas re known for dirts.for your info nija airways ws controld by yarabas nd ws kild by it money for aircraft maintenance ws used gor owambe.yoruba killd d railway,nija sports ws killd by yoruba see nfa.nija footbal had its best wen ibos re controlng d fa.see coca cola today yoruba hs dealt wit it,yoruba killd uac,leventis,kingsway,bata,mr biggs,even steav doring at d ports yoruba virus agan.dats y coys lyk wamco,premasador,cadbury nd co will nt gve u leaches d chance

Decryptor: The Yoruba man was not perfoming well and so he was kicked out for an Ibo man to perform better. We all know that various sectors which was piloted by yorubas were rotting away. So what's your problem or do you want to bring in your usual bigotry into this?

talktimi: if you watch the news, you would have heard that its the senate who pressured our presido to sack Demuren, let's leave ethnicity out of here. Besides Nkemwateva is just there in an acting capacity.

CHESSBOARD: ...a lot of clowns in NL.....If you cant beat them...then you have to join us, we do thing the right way, That man's input to that industry has become obsolete, he must have been begged to retire and he refused and then get the bootm, typical yoruba man

tunjiajayi: Stella oduah spoke to madam gej to pressure her wrapper to sack him. Simple!!

It is a known fact that the minister is hatefully tribalistic and she has embarked on systematic purge of her perceived enemies.

Watch out for stella airline which she would be holding in proxy for patience.

luli4life: . President Jonathan Fires Director-General of NCAA, Harold Demuren

March 11, 2013 - 21:11 — siteadmin

Harold Demuren, the Director-General of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority, has been removed from office with immediate effect.

A statement by the office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation said Mr. Demuren was removed as a result of pressure from "aviation stakeholders".  The statement did not say the nature of the pressure, nor indicate the stakeholders involved.

This goes on to show that indeed GEJ and his evil Igbo cohorts are up to no good and very very soon they will all be checkmated. What a bygot this man turn out to be with his wicked agenda. A man that's supposed to be blown to sliterines by Boko haram and nothing will happen. NBut fools will only dig their own graves.  

President Goodluck Jonathan was said to have approved the removal. Dr. Demuren also confirmed his removal via a text message to to Saharareporters.

naijainfogalery: All plank market in Lagos are been set on fire, I think someone is behind this,

justwise: No player should be disqualified from playing for national team based on her sexual-orientation. If she is a talented footballer then that is what matters.

hercules07: You might want to credit OBJ too, I despise the man but he was the one behind this power plant.

lacasa: Why would they wanna learn Igbo now??

That one is taught in U.S prisons, as its the Igbos 2nd home abroad

Jah Man: I guess your Fashola will soon close Otto food market also because that one is too filthy for a food market.He might not do that since the traders constitute roughly 50:50 between his people and Igbos.
If you have gone to buy something at Ladipo,you will pity those Igbo boys.
After purchasing some motor parts,I was stopped by some hoodlums who demanded to know the worth of what I bought.My customer intervened and they collected their normal fee.I mean those jobless Yoruba omo-oniles collect fees from not only the traders but buyers. What are the levies meant for? To clean up the place ofcourse.
Aside from these levies,the traders are also meant to do weekly clean up every Thursday to clean their environment before opening shop. The leaders enforce this.
But tell me how far they can clean up the place when the levies paid are shared from Alausa down to the 'Area boys'? Then the dirty neighbourhood dump their bags of gabbage inside for them to clean up. Same rubbish I noticed in one area in Lagos.
It is a subtle plot for Fashola to close their shops with their goods in there while He and his cronies think about what to convert the place to. If eventually it retains its status as spare part market,then those Igbo traders will pay through their noses to get a tiny slot. Ask Tejuosho traders and understand.
I dislike the subtle way Fashola and his team are making those Igbo traders to suffer and every time you want them to clap for him because he appointed 'their brother' as a commissioner.
Even in finding a school for your ward is now tougher than getting a US visa in Lagos. Imagine after paying an annual tax in 7-digits to this ungrateful state,all the roads in my area are death traps,area boys are ignored to operate freely,while I cannot enjoy the benefit of sending a househelp to a decent public school.
Let no untamed surfer tell me to relocate to my place. I am ready to do that for a very long time if only my kind of job is not situated in head office but in regions.
Enough of this hype of Fashola being a performing governor,he is plain annoying.

courage89: I agree...this guy looks like he's from kenya

danniekute: u cant be Igbo,and we cant accept u...ewu ofia.

dederocs: u muslims are deluded,look at the world today-who really owns the power?
the world just tolerates your bickerings and when you cross the line,armageddon will befall you and your wives and children,stop talking about your religion like y'al are a bunch of touts or mobs acting in a crazy frenzy...is that what you are being a muslim for-to fight and throw bombs?
what if America and Isreal and other European Nations decide to anihilate Iran and other extremists muslim states,they can if they want to,but as reasonable civilized people we show restraints,and focus our energy on things that develop the world.

Omo Alata: They probably robbed him of N5,000 and he's inflated it. So, will she pay the victim back his money or how does it work?

Brand_new: He/She would have to wait to celebrate every 4 years. I really don't think there's anything bad about that. I for one rarely celebrate mine.
