PointB:

In a post on his twitter account, Malam El-Rufai opined thus "@mareeyama: How many more people need to die before the government dialogues with Boko Haram , many more, they are parasites, right?
. . .

"Parasites?" Quite a bitter and very crude twit against the govt. Who exactly should the govt be dialoging with? Would it be El Rufai?

It is strange and deeply worrying, that while the man and his fellow core-Northern elite have not deemed it fit to raise their voices in condemnation of boko haram, there is never an end to spurious and outlandish calls to govt from them. Are they hidden supporters of boko haram or do they just love their pockets and lack balls?

[quote author=Negro_Ntns link=topic=801415.msg9534244#msg9534244 date=1321044786]lol, does Ben Murray Bruce have a native name?[/quote]Many ND people have no native names (a shame really), but it deducts nothing from the man. He is a great candidate, but I fear he lacks the machinery.

Great Ogboru should appeal, the cancellations are widespread and sweeping.

@nagoma
I really appreciated your quotes from Saad Zungur. They were really insightful, I never realised that the problem had been identified way before independence. Do you have a link one could use?

I really believe that if this policy by GEJ succeeds, it would bring about a monumental change in the outlook and future of the core-North. It will usher in educational and developmental parity with the South and help the unity of the country to no small degree, as the masses on both sides of the divide begin to share the same goals and aspirations.

People say the core-Northerner hates school, but that has been debunked by your posts. I am not sure if tsadiq is a core-Northerner too (I guess so from the spelling of his id); both you guys have spoken very well, if everyone was like you, the policy would be a roaring success.

I'm surprised anybody is questioning GEJ's words to investors. Some Nigerians are damn funny!
Should GEJ have taken them to Okija to show them fearful things and scare their d.i.c.ks into their arses? It is really hard to qualify some of the comments here with any degree of dignity, I can't tell if it is due to low self esteem issues or much graver matters to do with abysmal comprehension levels.

sheyguy:
what i am saying is this: after ND militancy and amnesty, FG might appears to be showing sympathy tomards the BH prone zone (UBE fund) which i strongly blieve they are, and it may encourage new dimension of lawlessness around the country, all in the name of the-govt-is-not-doing-enough. Why not let them hold the govt at the state level responsible, that way nobody has any excuse for attacking anxthing that represents the federal character (including NYSC).

The only reason boko haram has taken root in the core-North is the rampant illiteracy in existence there. In all these decades the state govts you want to be held responsible have only churned out almajiri after almajiri like its some industrial process to be proud of. Now, as the article says, there are 10million of them roaming the streets, some as suicide bombers fighting hard for boko haram that is as directionless as they are. Clearly, these folk also operate beyond state level and attack both federal and foreign targets.

If anyone attacks Nigeria or a guest of Nigeria, it is matter beyond the responsibilities of a state govt. The almajiri system is at the root of boko haram and all other extreme Islamist matters and as boko haram falls under the purvue of the FG, it is logical that its root cause does too.

Jakumo:
I picture Mai Suya as a turbaned Sultan, and devoted husband to many, many fine Fulani damsels, yet who still finds time to fire occasional sniper rounds at disgruntled elements who try and denigrate the Northern Caliphate in this forum. 

From his marble castle in Minna, Mai Suya commands his foot soldiers, ably led by the feared Alhaj Hareem, of the My-Hareem-is-bigger-than-yours fame.    In a classic pincer movement, the forces of the crescent moon advance relentlessly southward, encircling the seat of power, where sits the brooding General Seun, who must once again match wits with the invaders, bullet for bullet, and house to house. 

Surfacing from beneath oil-polluted waters of the Niger Delta in the dead of night, with a bayonet clamped between his teeth, I see none other than the uber-SEAL himself, Lt. Beaf of the who-no-know-go-know fame,  scanning the shoreline for jihadists and other enemies of progress, with a view to engaging them in ferocious exchanges of gunfire, lighting up the night sky with tracer streams while his foes scatter in disarray.

More to come.

Lolz Jakumo! Always bloody intelligent. Words dropping effortlessly like a bayonet to a commando's palm! This is how I imagine you, armed and high tech:

https://www.telovation.com/photos/high-tech-weapons.jpg

You make jihadists pee in fright.

Lol! A lighthearted thread for once!

Mai Suya is one guy I really like, very mature and balanced; never loses his cool. If only we were all like that!
Carry go Mai Suya! You win poster of di year!

Beaf, do you by any chance have any training or background in embedded system programming? Can you program micro controllers? I have a reason for asking.

No, I don't, but its not a huge leap and you might even be able to sort it yourself being technically minded. Depending on the sort of chip you want, you could actually go for something like Microsoft Robotics Studio (free) or the .NET Micro Framework (open source). They both offer high level language (C#, VB) access to specific types of microprocessors.
They should be fast enough for most non-mission critical stuff (including military).

.NET Micro Framework http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/netmf/default.aspx
Microsoft Robotics Studio http://www.microsoft.com/robotics/

Hope the above helps? You could also experiment with Arduino, which is an open source microcontroller project (I bought an Arduino board years ago, never used it ).

I don't really think we need to do much to make the top twenty. The size of our economy is already bigger than that of quite a few European countries; all we need do is wait for Europe to finish its economic implosion. Lol!
The next 5 years should be interesting ones for the World economy.

sheyguy:
Instead of going to the state and checking corruption they are busy sharing money they dont have enough of (Fuel subsidy) in the name of UBE.if this has anything to do with Boko Haram, then I see it as failure of the federal govt to check corruption at state level. This administration might just be starting problem beyond its own reach by sympathizing with terror oriented minds like these almajiris.

What are you talking about sir?
Illiteracy in the core-North is Nigeroia's biggest security risk. I have been banging that same thing for years now on NL; without rampant illiteracy, there would be no boko haram.

alpontif:
@Mr Beaf, while i have always followed your postings with a detached interest, i cannot help but respond to this particular posting. i want to believe that the comment attributed to your username in this particular thread is cynical, because if it is not so, the said statement has just shown that you actually endorse a form of federalism that wastes money in creating bureaucracies whose functions overlap with each other and which serve nothing but superficial purposes. at a time when Mr Good-luck Jonathan should implement means of cutting down the costs of running government and streamlining the various bureaucratic establishments to make them truly efficient and functional, this particular move is really disappointing.i beg to ask , who will fund this latest bureaucracy?, how will it benefit the masses in a way that the local council has been unable to ?, why, if i may ask not redesign and reposition the local government bureaucracy in a more efficient way so that it would serve the same purpose behind this recent creation, instead of indirectly increasing Nigeria's recurrent expenditure and providing another avenue for politicians and corrupt citizens to embezzle public funds and mismanage the common resources of this nation, through the creation of an authority whose public projects and responsibilities will end at buying posh ''official'' cars for the people in charge?,

You've totally misunderstood what the concept implies. Everyone agree's that our current unitary structure which we pretend to be federalism is a road to nowhere.
Our state govts produce exactly nothing, not even Akpabios Akwa Ibom, Amaechi's Rivers, Chime's Enugu or Fashola's Lagos. They are all huge bureaucratic messes that fritter away FG money on senseless waste.

Nigeria would be better if the FG is much weaker, there are no states (or much weakened states) and LG's become the centers of development. In the developed World, it is LG's that provide or supervise practically every service. States and the FG should be in place only to provide defense, security, foreign relations, espionage, maintain and disburse income from collective assets (eg taxation) and to create and enforce laws standards.

With the above, bureaucracy would be cut to a minimum and true development would flourish. Aside from that, there will be huge dividends in the cutting of corruption, the reason being that there will no longer be a huge oil (or whatever new wonder) cake to kill and divide in Abuja. Instead, there will be much smaller localised cakes that nobody will be able to steal and run away to Abuja with.
Such an arrangement would also answer the begging question of accountabilty, because there will no longer be an Abuja to disappear into as mentioned above. You steal, your neighbours and towns people simply burn your house down.
It would just be a win-win all round.

. . .And with such little steps, the journey to true federalism begins. It will take us to a land where the local govt is king and states and the FG lose considerable power.

[size=14pt]MOSOP CLAIMS: A SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENT IN NIGERIA[/size]
Nov 11th, 2011
by John Donovan.
10 November 2011

Ogoni Central Indigenous Authority Announced

MOSOP President /Spokesman, Dr. Goodluck Diigbo said the recent announcement by Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan prioritizing the setting up of local authorities is a good concept; within the Ogoni demand for political autonomy by whatever name called, as contained in the Ogoni Bill of Rights (OBR, 1990/91).

In this connection, MOSOP has responded by setting up of an Ogoni Central Indigenous Authority (OCIA). The primary functions include: To promote peace, security, planning and development partnership, as well as the effective management of the Ogoni environment throughout Ogoniland.

Under the authority, the Ogoni people will determine the structures and to select the membership of their institutions in accordance with their own democratic procedures in line with article 33 (2) of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.

Six Ogoni kingdoms and two administrative units form the second tier of the authority, while each village becomes a Community Council in like manner of City Hall in most of Europe, with responsibility to speed up socio-economic development. The identified sources of funding, include application of revenue from Ogoni wealth and natural resources, dividends on investments, domestic and foreign support as recognized in article 39 of UNDRIP.

Diigbo, who was speaking today at the Ken Saro-Wiwa Peace and Freedom Center, to mark 16th Remembrance of the hanging of the Ogoni leader, late Ken Saro-Wiwa said the setting up of the Ogoni Central Indigenous Authority is a significant step towards actualizing the UN Declaration of Rights of Indigenous Peoples and Ogoni Bill of Rights, and all the dreams for which late Saro-Wiwa and other Ogonis gave their lives.

MOSOP set up the council following a broadbased consultation and with overwhelming support by village chiefs and traditional rulers, as well as other existing traditional institutions. Diigbo said the leaders of existing local governments were contacted as individuals, but not officially because the councils have become channels for wasteful spending and corruption, and would be replaced by OCIA.

Until OCIA comes into operation, MOSOP will continue to play the role of the political and cultural apex organization of the Ogoni people, especially in matters relating to the United Nations Ogoniland Environmental Assessment and to hold the government, Royal Dutch/Shell, Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC and Chevron accountable for environmental tragedy of Ogoniland.

On bloody killings in other parts of Nigeria, Diigbo said it would be more productive for President Goodluck Jonathan to initiate dialogue as a priority in his leadership conflict resolution strategy with disaffected groups in Nigeria, instead to place confidence in the use of force of arms or military tactics.

Dr. Diigbo said: “It is not only risky for members of the State security forces, but that no country can make progress, if it is engaged in an-all-year-round of undeclared civil war, with its citizens shooting at each other; no matter the differences in their belief.”

Diigbo said the Ogoni people reject the labeling of Onne, in Eleme Kingdom of Ogoni as Federal Territory without corresponding authority and budget provisions applicable to the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, describing the policy as unacceptable. This is clearly a rogue policy, Diigbo pointed out.

The Ogoni Nine Memorial, which was preceded with a candlelight vigil on November 9, 2011 night, began with an interdenominational Church service with over 30 Ogoni churches participating and sermon by the President of Ogoni Council of Churches, Rev. Sir Mike Ibirah.

I do not doubt that the education will be Western, but will include Islamic studies; however, you actually want the people to "choose" what you have already chosen, so that we don't have acrimony and the people themselves become the biggest defenders of the system.

In a few years, we could have an educated core-North and the tender green shoots of lasting peace and security.

How many of those people can join hands to create a site anybody can tap into and access FREE technology (including, yes. . . inventions) for any use they deem fit?

Caveat emptor!!! Discuss with Beaf only if you like talking to mentally deranged individuals. Only a mad man ,for example, will conclude that Aregbe is worse, "by a long shot", in comparison to a governor who has watched helplessly as violent crisis took Nigerian lives i.e Jang.

[size=14pt]FG to Disburse Funds for Construction of Almajiri Schools[/size]
Favour Nnabugwu
10 November 2011

The Federal Government will this week mobilise contractors for the immediate commencement of almajiri schools across states of the North and selected states of the South.

Minister of State for Education, Barrister Ezenwo Nyesom Wike in Yola recently after inspecting Girl Child Schools under construction by Universal Basic Education Commission, UBEC, in Adamawa State, said that funds for the construction of the Almajiri schools would be released to contractors this week.

Wike noted that President Goodluck Jonathan is committed to enhancing access to quality education amongst less privileged Nigerians.

For years now, the menace of idle children and youths roaming the streets begging all in the name of acquiring education has been a source of concern for policy makers in Nigeria.

Recent studies conducted by the Ministerial Committee on Madrasah Education puts the population of Almajari at about 10 million.

It therefore becomes obvious that for Nigeria to achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and Education for All (EPA) goals, there is the need for an accelerated intervention by the Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC).

The Integrated Almajari Education is essentially designed by the Federal Government under President Goodluck Jonathan to integrate the Islamic School system to provide quality education for these target population.

In order to achieve this, the Jonathan Goodluck administration put in place a policy framework which focuses on two critical levels.

The first is engagement with the rationalisation of the existing traditional system of Islamic education with a view to addressing existing problems and challenges, consolidating achievements and expanding opportunities for the growth and development of the system.

The commitment demonstrated by government in setting up an Implementation Committee on Almajari education is highly appreciated.

At various levels, stakeholders especially governments of the affected Northern States have devised various ways to deal with the social pandemic with little or no success inspite of their policy intervention.

The Minister said that the foundation laying ceremony for the construction of the Almajiri schools will be performed by President Jonathan in Sokoto in the coming weeks.

He said: "The funds for the construction of the Almajiri schools are available and the Federal Government is committed to completing these schools on schedule".

He commended UBEC for the progress made in the construction of Girl Child Education schools across Northern Nigeria.

At the Federal Government Girls College, Yola, the Minister expressed dissatisfaction with the environment of the school.
