Since you are from Niger or Chad, why are you bothered about Nigerian issues, Nigerians and the President and Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria?

We here, don't cater to Ghanaians or whatever. Thank you.

Fashola spent more than twice as much in total as the Presidency, buying amoured cars for himself and Tinubu just a couple of months ago. How could that have been the right time and GEJ's the wrong time?

Hypocrisy.

Mr clever man, tell us how YOU will fight the cabal, when they have written their operations into the law and it is impossible to secure our borders. I am very interested to hear, O Wise One!

It isn't just a matter of cobbling together things heard around the corner and posting on NL, give us your practical A to Z.

Olalekan 0:
ALL THIS HYPOCRISY AND DOUBLE STANDARD ON NAIRALAND GOTTA STOP.

A MERE STATE GOVERNOR IN THE PERSON OF FASHOLA BOUGHT HIMSELF AND HIS PREDECESSOR ARMOURED CARS WITH STATE FUNDS EVEN WHEN HE HAD EXISTING ONES YET IT WAS RATIFIED BY NAIRALANDERS BUT WHEN THE PRESIDENT OF THE ENTIRE FEDERATION WHO'S DOMICILED IN THE NATION'S MOST VOLATILE AND UNSAFE REGION DOES SAME,IT BECOMES A PROBLEM AND IT'S GREETED BY WIDESPREAD OUTCRY. WHY?

NIGERIA WILL NEVER MAKE A HEADWAY SHOULD WE CONTINUE TO TOE THIS PART OF [size=21pt]ETHNIC BIGOTTRY AND DISHONESTY[/size] IN THE JUDGEMENT OF OUR POLITICAL OFFICE HOLDERS!

You nailed it squarely between the eyes!
These punks think nobody can see through their lame whingeing. Fashola's amoured jeep cost almost TWICE as much as GEJ's Presidential limo. yet it is just a jeep and he is nothing but a mere governor in comparison. I wonder why we never heard the hypocritical weeping of most of those here and why we never saw their crocodile tears, especially as Fashola also bought one for Tinubu. The same story can be read out about other state governors, show me one that does not rely on one for security.

No country messes around with the security of its President, but some NLers are canvassing for their President to ride to work on an okada or whatever. Wonders!

sir rinky:
@beaf, used to anticipate reading your opinion on certain issues but quite frankly of recent your very erratic and totally senseless comments perplexes me and i am still trying to fathom the reason a sane person would reason as such. @ this highly volatile conditions in which we find ourselves with high rate of infrastructural decay,unemployment,non-existent educational sector and reverse development do you honestly think its the moral thing to do,for the president to purchase cars at such amounts and yet still look @ the budgetary allocation for feeding of the presidency accruing to almost 1billion naira, that is roughly 3million naira daily be honest is that actually prudent or genuine. Listen to the voice of wisdom and pass it on to your boss, you might intimidate nigerians individually,oppress certain factions but remember,there is a limit to it and quite frankly its sooner than later when Nigerians get past the threshold of thier tolerance the up-rising would be too hot for him to handle and i know you have seen countries with better security structures toppled. Nigerian youths are resilient,patient,hopeful but are neither silly nor cowards and when the time comes things might get very awfull. You have no idea what the youths are cooking up and i pray it doesnt get there but if it does the presidency would never remain the same. NB: AM NEITHER AN OPPOSITION NOR A POLITICIAN,SO DONT THINK I AM ON SOMEBODY'S PAYROLL

Everything you have written is not properly thought through, that is if you even made the slightest effort.
You think infrastructure is poor? Yes it is, but it will be several million times worse if a Nigerian President is harmed in our current heated times. Then all of the dunces spewing crap here about the President riding to work on a bicycle will be hiding their families, running into the bush and crossing the borders in thousands as refugees in phucked up places like Benin Republic that will suddenly seem like heaven.

You say you are not on anybody's payroll. I don't give a rats arse who you are, aside from concluding that you are silly, cowardly, airy-headed punk type that Nigeria certainly does not need; so, stuff the details of your identity up your crusty arse. Thank you.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!! Have these people made Nigerians suffer enough?

GEJ and Sambo should know that no matter the amount or customized bullet proof vehicle they acquire, when the Angel of death shows in front of them, neither their bullet proof cars, vest or gun tooting security will be able to save them.

@beaf, since you have decided to only support evil, for every curse placed upon Jonathan, you, your children and generation yet unborn shall have it quadrupled,

You are just another mental cripple with your brain snuggled up your arse.
The politics section is for analytical minds, not wet nosed ninnies preaching silly sentiment and clinging tight to mummies skirt.

lakhadimar:
@beaf You careless about churchill, i also careless about the N/koreans & kim jong il. But lets bring it back home, do u know the number of Nigerians starving & crying as a result of the hardship meted at them due to Gej's incompetence? Are you aware of the ridiculous amount Gej budgeted for personal feeding for the coming year, while millions of Nigerian children sleep with an empty stomach, are you aware that some Nigerians are crossing the border to nearby equitoral guinea so as to get fuel at cheaper price while Gej is still bent on removing the subsidy on fuel.

Wetin konsain North Korea and GEJ? Why can't Nigerians have a conversation without rambling?
Maybe its the situation in your village thats making North Koreans so damn good at letting of copious jets of crocodile tears. No?

crowaddy:
Load  of   crap  comments   arising  from  ignorance   here( Maybe  the   country  is  full of  too  many  hungry   people  hence distorted  mode of  reasoning).

First  of  all the   headline   is  quite   deceptive  and   quite  misleading.

The  N992 Million  i guess  is a   budget  for  the  Presidency. The  presidency (or  office  of  the  president/ Vice President ) is      bigger  than  GoodLuck  or  Sambo  or   whosoever   occupies    the  position  of  President/Vice President.

If  it  is  argued  that   the  aforementioned  amount  is  for  feeding  at  Aso  Villa  then  we  must  understand that Hundreds if  not  a thousand plus  people  live  and  work  at   the  villa- Civil  Servants, Security personnel etc.

You  must  add  that  the   president and   his   designated  aids  also    get  visits  on soci0-economic  and  political  consultations   that are   both  local   and  international   in  nature etc.

Thanks for your thoughtful post, it was quite refreshing to read after wading through various tomes of real drivel by the usual crew.

Dude, sometimes its best not to even engage in topics like this one. Because it makes you wonder if something is wrong with the next person to make them reason sentimentally rather than logically.
The greatest thing missing in our primary and secondary school curricula is Critical Thinking.

@Rad1cal

Really? How long do you think a car that carries the weight of a lorry in armour would last?
The Presidential limo can NEVER be allowed to break down or even look remotely like it, that is one area nobody can toy with.

There are many on here (including the OP) who think it is ok for Fashola to zoom around in a newly acquired armoured car, because they are ethnic bigots or something else is wrong; whereas, he is a mere governor, but to the same people, there is something wrong when the country renews the Presidential fleet. Its a grave irony.

Coming from the mongrel that defend everything indefensible about GEJ. Who wanna waste his time replying this foool? Thesame mice that went on rampage to defend 1 billion naira feeding allowance for the fat cows in Aso Rock. You a complete disgrace to your generation.

Dude, Do you happen to have your brain located on your feet? It amaze me how any sane human being can be so callous, wicked and stuupid to support anything evil.

The guy that pull that thread understands how everything was cooked up by maggot munching vultures like you to cast aspersion on Fashola.

Going by logic, since fashola is spotted in a bullet Jeep then, it has to worth 200 million? How daft can this crazie arzs be? Does every bullet proof jeep worth 200 milla?

Assuming am gonna play along your reetarded level, show me where i said Foshala is not using bullet proof jeep or must every bullet proof car worth 200 milla? If so, then why these fat cows in Aso Rock budgeting 280 milla for theirs??



Pathetic lying toad!!![/quote]Simple math eludes you. A primary school student would work it out that, at 600million for Fashola and Tinubu's 3 Toyota jeeps, it works out at 200million per Toyota.
In the case of the Presidential fleet, it is two Mercedes Benz 600 E Guards at 280million, that is 140million per high class Benz.

Dimwit.

Another "free farmland" in an elephant reserve story. Aregbesola is full of gas and high stories.
Like I predicted with the "free farmlands," where the farmers got brutalised by Aregbesola's thugs for breaking the law as soon as the camera's were gone; so it will be with the harpless Osun state workers. Those farmers got the most thorough beating they had ever received, they were frightened off Aregbes "free farmlands" with the most vicious helpings of slaps, punches and drop-kicks they had ever witnessed.

Osun states workers have been victims of the many Aregbe experiments; owed two or three months wages through AregbeRASCALs tenure (while awaiting the miraculous dry season); this is yet another expensive experiment on the long suffering people. Its like guinea pigs in a madmans lab, watch out for the real drama in the next couple of months.

All hail RASCALS!
It would be comical, if it wasn't so tragic.

What is the diffrence between winston churchill and kim jong il? Media and brainwashing. Remeber winston churcill starved 15million indians to death yet the british refer to him as a hero

Who cares about Winston Churchill?

What have the various Kims done for North Korea, aside from introduce mass hunger and starvation in the midst of rockets and nuclear weapons?
Roughly half of Pyongyangs population of approx 2 million consists of communist party members (the reason they can get an abundant supply of "tears" in the city); in the meantime, the communist party has a membership of about 2 million. Do the math, its a phucked country.

I would love to see pictures of people crying outside Pyongyang, I can bet you, there are none.

[quote author=Rhino.5dm link=topic=829600.msg9807464#msg9807464 date=1324443114]That was a FALSE news!.[/quote]You always talk very stup!dly. First of all, the President has every right to a high security vehicle, no matter what it phucking costs. Secondly, WTF does the cost of the car have to do with fuel subsidy?

Thirdly, by your retort above, you have shown that your worldview is prejudiced or bigotted to the extent that you are willing to lie (as usual). This is pictorial proof that Fashola hangs out in a bullet proof jeep for his protection (and by the way, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that). Those who ain't cretins would make out the thickness of the door and the fact that the window cannot be lowered (hence he had to open the door). For your info, Fashola's jeep cost more than the Presidential ride.

What pains me, is why any numskull can pop out of his ogogoro joint to proclaim to civilised people that it is ok for a governor to ride around in a bullet proof vehicle, while the President hails taxi's or treks around Oshodi with a bag of state secrets on his shoulder. You are one "clever" chap indeed.

[size=14pt]Crying by numbers at Kim's state funeral[/size]
TERRY MCCARTHY in Seoul
Wednesday, 20 July [size=14pt]1994[/size]

TENS of thousands of North Koreans lined the streets of Pyongyang yesterday to watch the funeral cortege of President Kim Il Sung pass by in a meticulously orchestrated display of emotion and synchronised weeping. Meanwhile his 52-year-old son, Kim Jong Il, was apparently preparing to sweep into power on this pan-national wave of grief, as every utterance of sorrow at the father's passing was accompanied by pledges to follow his son henceforth.
Kim Il Sung died on 8 July, of a heart attack, after leading North Korea down an isolationist and internally repressive path for 46 years of juche, self-reliance socialism. Although he chose his son as his successor 20 years ago, doubts over Kim Jong Il's grip on power persist and the funeral ceremonies appear carefully designed to enhance his image as the inheritor of his father's legacy.

Yesterday Kim Jong Il bowed repeatedly in front of his father's coffin, before it was driven on the back of a black limousine through the main streets of Pyongyang. It was preceded by an enormous portrait of the dead man mounted on another car and an arrow-like formation of several dozen motorbikes. A fleet of black Mercedes followed the cortege, hiding the most privileged mourners.

'Since rising as the son of the revolution, for 80 years he gave everything he had, he gave his life - is it true that the great heart stopped beating?' said one mourner to a North Korean television reporter. 'Dear Great Leader, you are leaving us, but with all our hearts we will heed Kim Jong Il's leadership,' said another.

'I just don't want to believe it . . . he is beside us, he will live forever,' said a young woman, whose sorrow forced her interviewer to dab tears away from his eyes with the ubiquitous white handkerchief that every citizen of Pyongyang seemed to be carrying yesterday.

Were the outpourings of grief entirely staged? 'Maybe some kind of organisation took place,' said Alexander Valiev, the Pyongyang correspondent for the Russian Tass news agency, by telephone. 'I saw many men in suits controlling order on the streets.' The crowds were uncannily orderly: the front row along every street had its toes aligned to the kerb and nobody pushed forward or jostled out of place. Even nature was not immune: 'Flowers in full bloom in busy streets of the capital have lost their fragrance,' reported the official North Korean news agency, KCNA.

It was almost crying by numbers, as the crowds broke into simultaneous mourning at the appearance of television cameras. Earlier North Korean television showed pictures of a family mourning at home, with large amounts of food conspicuously laid on a table in front of Kim Il Sung's picture, and footage of farmers mourning beside a field of ripening maize. Both sequences seemed designed to discredit stories of increasing food shortages in the country, while the mourners repeated the slogan of 'turning their sorrow into strength' to improve productivity under the new leader, Kim Jong Il.

But at the same time the sheer size of the crowds, the sound of the solemn dirges, the loss of a leader who, for better or worse, ruled over his people for half a century, and the uncertainty about the future was infectious. If some of the sloganeering mouthed by selected mourners for broadcast sounded wooden, many people none the less must have felt moved by the spectacle, and perhaps even distressed that their dedication to the 'great leader' for so many years had still not left them all with meat to eat, tiled roofs for their houses and heating inside - a failure Kim Il Sung himself admitted in his last New Year's speech this year. North Koreans, after all, have a lot to be sorry about.

'No you must not go that way' was a poem sent to the Rodong Sinmun newspaper in Pyongyang by a reader. But yesterday Kim Il Sung went that way. And for 22 million North Koreans, as the centre of their tightly sealed society fell through, there was little else to do but look miserable.

[size=14pt]Judge quits over Boko Haram[/size]
By Yusuf Alli, Abuja

A judge with the Kano State judiciary has quit the service, following his alleged romance with the Boko Haram sect.
The judge has been placed under security surveillance and may face prosecution if a prima facie case is eventually established against him.
The judge, who was on the Borno State Election Petition Tribunal, allegedly fostered a relationship with some Boko Haram members on his arrival in Maiduguri.

A source, who spoke in confidence, said: “Security agencies were able to establish exchange of information between the judge and the Boko Haram members, especially the jailed spokesman of the sect, Ali Sanda Umar Konduga (alias Usman AI- Zawahiri).

“He was also leaking the movement of members of the Tribunal and proceedings of the sitting to the sect.
“Members of the tribunal started receiving text messages. The situation became unsafe to the extent that the tribunal had to relocate to Abuja for its sitting.

“When the judge was confronted by the security, he could not defend why he had to relate with some alleged sponsors of Boko Haram.”
Responding to a question, the source added: “It took the deployment of technology to unmask the judge.”

“Following overwhelming evidence, the judge has voluntarily retired from the judiciary, but he is now under security surveillance.
“The judge threw in the towel because his activities amounted to an abuse of the oath of office he took.”

The Nation learnt that there is pressure to save the judge from trial but the government is studying security reports on him.

“If the final report confirms that he is entrenched in the coordination of Boko Haram activities and isolated incidents which the country had experienced, he might face trial,” another source said, adding:
“We are not yet done with him. Transactions in his accounts are being investigated. The call logs of the judge are also being analysed by security agencies.

“His indictment has confirmed the high level of complicity surrounding the Boko Haram menace. We will get to the roots of this security challenge,” the source said.

The judge is the third of the alleged high-profile sponsors of Boko Haram to be unveiled by security agencies.

The State Security Service (SSS) has put Senator Ali Ndume on trial. The late Ambassador Saidu Pindar was also listed as a sponsor of the sect, which has claimed responsibility for major bombings in the country.

According to a recent survey, Nigeria has witnessed over 30 explosions with more than 300 people killed in recent times.

az77zy: That is because the cabals dont want the refineries to work. It is only in nigeria refineries can't work because certain people don't want refineries. Come to think of it with more refineries in place there wil be more jobs both directly and indirectly and with the surplus fuel we can then allow market prices to take control. Bros there is no subsidy they just want to extort money from the masses by increasing fuel price

slam on the money!
Nigeria is an incredibly corrupt country and corruption has its dark webs and cold tentacles reaching deep into organisations, associations and the street. It is an ugly, all pervasive fabric that forms a national straitjacket against progress. Just as we hear that the N20 police collect at the roadside is a racket that reaches the highest police offices, so there are men who are richer than the country; they collude with the likes of Shell and control the oil unions. They have not committed any crimes, because their trade is "legal," so they cannot be pursued and jailed. The only way to get them, is sweep away the system.

There are things GEJ can see that we can't. There are things that sicken him enough to feel that the system must be torn down and heaven wishes, let it fall.
The FG gave 18 licenses out for private refineries, donkey years ago. You know what? Not a single foundation stone has been laid! The big question is, why? Yet a license that was given for a smallscale one in Port Harcourt in 2010 has resulted in our very first operational private refinery in 2011. That further begs the question of why the 18 largescale refineries are not being built.

I imagine that the 18 largescale refineries would be swimming in the same pond as the fuel importers and they have either been "persuaded" with threats or taken a look at the subsidised market and backed off. I tend to believe that it is a mixture of both.

IMHO, if we dig deeper into the reason none of the 18 refineries has even bought the first bag of cement to start construction after donkey years, we will find the reason why GEJ is ready to play the zero sum game and dare anyone.

Bakare! Why can't the man just give up this crap civil rights thing and stick to his church? He is dissapointing many with his numerous bandwagon publicity stunts.

“The accused is hereby admitted to bail to face his trial. I don’t believe in giving outlandish bail conditions especially as it was frowned at by former Chief Justice of Nigeria [CJN], Justice Muhammed Uwais.
“Outlandish bail a condition is akin to taking from the left hand, what has been given by the right hand. It will undermine, ridicule and make a mockery of the judiciary and reduced its proceedings to a circus-show.”
“However, the request by the counsel to the accused that he be released on self recognizance in view of his status as a Senator and two time House of Representatives member has no merit.”

Justice Kolawole therefore slammed the following as conditions to be fulfilled by Ndume before he could be released from Kuje Prison.
He is to produce two sureties both residence within the boundaries of the court and one of which must be a national officer of his political party and a former or serving member of the Senate or House of Representatives.
The second surety must be a Nigerian with property in any part of the country that is occupied and valued at N50 million by an approved Estate valuers.

He must also swear to an affidavit of means and produce evidence of tax payment at least within three years period and also deposit his Certificate of Occupancy [C&O] to the registry of the court.
Ndume is to surrender his current private international passport to the registry of the court and signed an irrevocable undertaking not to have any contact with any person suspected to be members of the Boko Haram sect.
Justice Kolawole said once these conditions were fulfilled and reviewed by both parties in the case, the accused shall be released from Kuje prison.

This is the same as telling the man to produce a chicken with full grown teeth! Damn!

I pity Lagosians.

[size=14pt]How we will spend subsidy -FG •To share funds with states, Lgs •FG: N478bn; States: N411bn; LGs N203bn [/size]
Written by Kunle Awosiyan and Hassan Ibrahim Tuesday, 20 December 2011

IT appears that the Federal Government has concluded every plan to go ahead with the removal of oil subsidy next year as it released

a document on how to invest the proceeds from the scheme.

The Minister of Information, Mr Labaran Maku, said at a media parley in Lagos, on Monday, that a Board of Trustees would soon be constituted by President Goodluck Jonathan to comprise persons of proven integrity to oversee the implementation of projects to be funded with the money.

According to him, a robust programme structure has been developed to ensure adequate oversight, accountability and implementation of various projects. He said: “The entire project will be overseen by a board, which will include a member of the media, while consulting firms with international reputation will be appointed to provide technical assistance to the board in financial and project management.”

Maku explained that an independent body would be responsible for monitoring and evaluating the implementation and would report directly to the board.

The document, which has as its title, “Subsidy reinvestment and empowerment programme (SURE programme),” puts the total projected subsidy re-investible funds per annum at N1.134 trillion based on average crude oil price of US$90 per barrel.

Out of this, N478.49 billion is accrued to the Federal Government; N411.03 billion to state governments; N203.23 billion to local governments; N9.86 billion to the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and N31.37 billion as transfers to derivation and ecology, development of natural resources and stabilisation.

Maku said while state and local governments were expected to design their own programmes by utilising their portions of the subsidy reinvestment funds, the Federal Government had decided to channel its own share of the resources into a combination of programmes to stimulate the economy and alleviate poverty through critical infrastructure and safety net projects.

The minister stated that to transform the economy in line with the Vision 20:2020 objectives, critical infrastructure projects in the power, roads, transportation, water and downstream petroleum sectors would be executed.

According to him, the projects on road have been divided into various sections, which include East-West sections that comprise the Warri-Kalama (87km); Port Harcourt–Ahoada (47km); Ahoada-Kaima (54km); East-West Road (99km) with all of them put at 338km.

He also spoke on the Abuja-Abaji-Lokoja dual carriageway (200km); Benin-Ore-Sagamu dual carriageway (295km); Onitsha-Enugu-Port Harcourt dual carriageway (317 km); Kano-Maiduguri dual carriageway (510km); construction of Oweto Bridge (2km); construction of 2nd Niger Bridge (2km), totalling 1,326km.

On railway projects, Maku mentioned the Lagos-Ibadan Standard Gauge (dual) (174km); Abuja-Kaduna Standard Gauge (187km); Port Harcourt-Umuahia-Enugu-Markurdi-Lafia-Kuru-Kafancahan-Jos-Bauchi-Gombe-Maiduguri (2, 119km); Zaria-Funtua-Gusau-Kaura Namoda (221km); Lagos-Ibadan-Ilorin-Jebba-Minna-Kaduna-Zaria-Kano (1,124km) and Abuja light rail project (52km, all put at 3,877km.

While reiterating the commitment of the government to accountably fund the projects, the minister added that every component of the national developmental programme to be financed from the subsidy’s proceeds would be implemented in the next three to four years.

On power, Maku said that the target of the Federal Government was to improve generation capacity through hydro and coal power plants.

According to him, the programme would provide counterpart funding for the construction of the large Mambilla hydropower project that would generate additional 2,600 Megawatts of electric power.

It would also provide funding to complete a total of 17 small and medium hydroelectric power projects with a cumulative capacity of 14.275 Megawatts, while a counterpart funding for Public Private Partnership would also be available to develop coal power projects in Enugu, Benue, Kogi and Gombe with a potential to generate 1,000 Megawatts of power.

In the area of petroleum and NNPC projects, the minister said that the main objective of the government was to restore and improve domestic refining capacity and prevent shortfalls in supply of petroleum products.

According to him, three new refineries would be built under a counterpart funding arrangement with private sector in Bayelsa State (100, 000 barrels per day); Kogi (100, 000 barrels per day) and Lagos State (200, 000 barrels per day).

On health, the Federal Government would be targeting the maternal and child health services with the specific objective of increasing the utilisation by rural population through demand and supply interventions.

Maku said that the potential beneficiaries targeted by the programme were the three million pregnant women per annum and 12 million over the course of the programme, representing an average of 50 per cent of the estimated number of pregnant women in the country.
