Reuters gave a very good summary of the Nigerian political landscape, they also highlighted Buhari's greatest weakness. Yes, Buhari will loose Kano (or kpata kpata, na draw).

fstranger3:
And you think killing Funsho Williams was the way to go.

Openly disagreeing with Bucknor and Pedro and Ogunlewe, putting lives in danger is the better alternative?

Funsho Williams was the most honest, down to Earth, bloody honest guy. He was someone with vision, a man we would have voted in as President one day.
Anybody could walk into his house and get an audience, unfortunately that was what his political opponents did, and cut down a great man.

One day, Funsho Williams killers will be brought to justice.

Tinubu is indeed, the greatest threat to our democracy.

[size=14pt]Nigeria's Jonathan wraps up campaign in Muslim north[/size]

KANO, Nigeria (Reuters) - Thousands of ruling party supporters flocked to a dusty polo ground in Nigeria's northern city of Kano on Wednesday for the penultimate leg of President Goodluck Jonathan's election campaign tour.

Securing support in this ancient Islamic city, Nigeria's second most populous after the southern commercial hub of Lagos, will be key if Jonathan, who is from the southern Niger Delta, is to clinch victory in the first round of the April polls.

As the incumbent, Jonathan is considered the front-runner, but his main rival, Muslim ex-military ruler Muhammadu Buhari, has strong grass roots support in many parts of the north and the opposition is hoping to force a run-off.

"We will unite this country, and run an open government that does not discriminate," Jonathan told the crowd, eschewing his usual fedora and kaftan for a red cap and white robes, the traditional dress of the northern Hausa-Fulani ethnic group.

"We are encouraged by the crowd we see here," he said, on the 35th stage of his tour of Nigeria's 36 states.

From Islamic police enforcing a ban on beer and prostitution to its centuries-old market and mosques, Kano feels like a different country to the pulsating southern sprawl of Lagos.

Its dusty, tree-lined streets and throngs of child beggars have more in common with the sleepy Sahelian cities of Niger or Chad than with Lagos in the south, a city built on hustle and home to some of Africa's largest firms and richest tycoons.

Jonathan inherited power after the death of late northern President Umaru Yar'Adua last year and some in the northern elite feel his victory would rob them of what should have been another four years in power for their region.

Buhari's reputation as a disciplinarian won respect from some, who lament the extent to which corruption has spread, and sits well with the conservatism of Kano, one of only four states where uniformed Islamic police are used to enforce sharia law.

He ruled Nigeria between December 1983 and August 1985, an iron-fisted administration best remembered for its "War Against Indiscipline", a campaign against graft in which politicians were jailed and drug traffickers executed.

"Buhari has a clean mind. He is a very religious and Godly person," said Hajia Hadisa Mohammed, 85, buying textiles in Kano's Kwari market, a labyrinth of narrow alleyways packed with stalls made of wooden lattice and corrugated iron roofs.

GRINDING POVERTY

Much is at stake in Kano and Nigeria's other northern cities. Jonathan must win at least 25 percent of the vote in two thirds of the states to clinch victory. The core north, along with opposition strongholds in the southwest, are seen as the most likely regions to prevent him succeeding.

Northern Muslims long pulled the strings of political power.

Four military rulers from the region led the country in the decade and a half before democracy was restored in 1999 but since the end of military rule, the upper echelons of the security forces have increasingly been staffed by southerners and some in the north fear being marginalised.

The south has the oil reserves and sea ports and is home to the headquarters of Nigeria's banks. Rapid economic growth has created a generation of independent wealth no longer so reliant on the political patronage once dispensed by northern strongmen.

On the streets of Kano, such rivalries are considered the preserve of the political elite. For most people in a region where industry and agriculture are in decline, more basic issues such as jobs and reliable electricity supply are the priorities.

"What we want is change. This government has failed us. Buhari is the only option," said Sagir Haruna at his market stall, surrounded by piles of fabric from India and China.

For many of Nigeria's 150 million people, scraping by on a few dollars a day, politics is a game played by the wealthy whose prize is control of oil revenues and government contracts and whose outcome has little impact on their daily lives.

Kano youths grabbed what they could from Jonathan's rally.

Moments after his convoy sped from the polo ground, there was a scramble to strip the podium on which he had spoken, scavenging valuable planks of wood, tearing material from the drapings and even ripping up the red carpet, part of which was offered to this correspondent for 1,000 naira.

"I came with just my legs, but now I've got this," said Abubakar Sadiq, 21, carting off a large scaffolding poll.

"I will keep it in my house and think of Goodluck Jonathan whenever I look at it," he said, but then paused and added:

"Or maybe I'll sell it."

[size=14pt]Lagos nurses go on strike, public health system paralysed[/size]
By Gbenro Adeoye
March 17, 2011 06:46AM

Lagos State’s public healthcare system was further weakened when nurses and midwives across state-owned hospitals embarked on an indefinite strike on Thursday. The strike affects the state teaching hospital, 26 general hospitals and over 270 primary health care centres across Lagos. The state chapter of the National Association of Nigerian Nurses and Midwives is pressing for the full payment of the Consolidated Health Salary Structure (CONHESS), an improved salary structure currently enjoyed by their colleagues in federal health institutions across the country; and eight months’ arrears of clinical duty allowance.

The nurses voted to go on strike at a congress held at their secretariat in Agidingbi. The state chairman of the association, also called NANNM, Isaiah Badejo, said the strike would start by Thursday morning “because the seven-day ultimatum given to the state government expires by 12 midnight.”

Mr. Badejo said that the state government had offered instead an abridged version called the Lagos State Consolidated Health Salary Structure (LACONHESS), which the nurses rejected.

“They compressed steps 1 to 15 to just steps 1 and 2 in the one offered to us,” Mr. Badejo said. “This means that everybody on steps 1 to 6 will now fall into step 1 of their new structure and everyone from step 6 to step 15 will now be in step 2, and the nurses are not happy. They want 100 percent implementation of the CONHESS table with the steps implemented point to point.”

The nurses are joining the state’s doctors who have been on strike for more than five weeks over similar issues.

A breakdown

Under the former salary structure called CONTISS (Consolidated Tertiary Institutions Salary Structure), a chief nursing officer on grade level 14 step 11, running shift duty, earns N155,000. The same nurse will earn N277,000 under CONHESS. What the state government is offering under LACONHESS to the same nurse is N232,000. The nurses are demanding that Lagos should “implement in verbatim the federal government CONHESS circular for the entire nurses and midwives in the state”.

“Once these issues on ground are resolved, we will call the congress to decide on calling off the strike,” Mr. Badejo added.

Placards displayed by health workers at the congress read: “Enough is enough” and “We want full CONHESS”.

“We don’t want to see letters,” one health worker said. “What we want to see is reality, and we are not calling off the strike until we see full CONHESS.”

Another worker said: “Government has been maltreating us because majority of us are women; with all the work we do in Lagos, now is the time for them to take us seriously. We will remain resolute; it is one decision,” added another.

Demand for equality

In 2010, the federal government announced its decision to start implementing its new salary scales for health workers in federal health institutions, prompting agitations from their colleagues in state-owned institutions. While the salary scale for pharmacists, medical laboratory scientists, physiotherapists, radiology and imaging scientists, optometrists, nurses and other health workers in federal medical agencies are now based on CONHESS, the Consolidated Medical Salary Scale (CONMESS) is for medical and dental officers in the same agencies on the federal level.

The call for the implementation of CONMESS, along with some other issues, led to the 14-week strike observed last year by Lagos doctors, who argued that the improved salary package would solve the problem of the brain drain affecting the medical profession. Lagos health workers have continued to base their arguments on a huge workload caused by the state’s large population. For instance, while the World Health Organisation’s recommended doctor: population ratio standard is 1:600, the state’s ratio stands at 1:1,504 (figures are from the list of doctors in the last edition of the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria register). There seem to be discrepancies in the reporting of doctor’s figures in the state. Lagos reportedly has 11,971 doctors in its public hospitals, federal and state, according to the Medical and Dental Council register, and the state government’s estimated population figure is 18 million. But the state health ministry has put the number of doctors in private and state-owned health facilities at 2,435, excluding federal hospitals; with state health facilities accounting for 1,093 of the figure.

‘We need nurses’

Speaking on the strike, Taofeek Majolagbe, vice chairman of the Medical Guild, made up of doctors in state hospitals, said: “It doesn’t speak good for patients at all. Even if the Medical Guild suspends its strike, there is little the doctors can do without the nurses there. We put out a plan to save someone’s life, but it is the nurses who carry out most of the instructions. They are on strike because of the same reason we have been on strike for so long, and this shows that there is a problem with the health system. It also shows that doctors are not greedy and stubborn like the government has been painting it; government saw it coming and should have prevented it. I will urge the government to address all the issues.”

At a forum on eradicating polio in Lagos last week, Jide Idris, the state health commissioner, told journalists that the state government was in constant negotiation with the striking doctors and that the issue would resolved soon. However, he refused to say when that would be. Efforts to reach Mr. Idris for comments on the nurses’ strike were unsuccessful as his mobile phone number was not available.

bizgynbala:
Its unfortunate that religion is taken precedence ova national interest, u religious bigots call GMB and muslims names, mind u Pastor tunde bakare neva said or preached voilence, ol he said was ''if pdp rigs'' there cld be every likelyhood of voilence in the north because the people are fed up of the pdp misrule for 12years, Nigeria needs this two honest men!!! BB ol d way,

No, he said it would be "wild-wild North. He also talked about how someone set himself on fire in Tunisia.
There is no better way to preach violence. Imagine a man that claims to be a pastor preaching self immolation, what is the World coming to?

blacksta:
More lies form the camp of GEJ ineptitude  - baseless information - where you in the meeting when this issues were being discussed.  I can happy confirm the current running mate of ribabu  " Fola" matches the credentials of Okonjo  ANYTIME  and i dont know where you got the notation of imposed candidate from.  

Ol boy stick to pdp politics as you know nothing else.  Of all the running mates " Sambo must be dullest"  anyway what does one expect from clueless  GEJ.

You stay in your Essex, far away from reality and yarn nonsense very loudly.
It was common news that was even posted and discussed right here on NL. Shame on you and your hand-me-down news about Nigeria. You bera vist 9ja before you get lost patapata.

[quote author=eku_bear link=topic=625435.msg7929096#msg7929096 date=1300344887]I'm starting to think that the author of the article made a typographical error. Perhaps it should read

In that case, I think things make more sense. Then it simply becomes a case of Bakare complaining about how the ACN didn't let Buhari have full control over who he runs with on their ticket. Which isn't a big deal, really.

Because the way the sentence is written now, Bakare comes off as a jackass.[/quote]Buhari never considered Okonjo Iweala, rather Ribadu did and Tinubu fought the choice with sulphur and fire (cos he wanted to impose a candidate and Ribadu refused). Things were so bad that Ribadu didn't look like he would have a running mate. Long and short is, its no typo.

fstranger3:
He was mentioned 13 times in the article. Obviously, the most important personality in any sovereign country is the President.
The fact that GEJ's name was omitted is an indication that he was more of a figure head than anything else. Unlike Diya under Abcha, Ekwueme, Atiku and other VPs, his role in the administration was a redundant, silly, non-influential one.

He was mentioned 13 times, but he wasn't mentioned as being on the list. Turai was number one, Ibori was also prominent, or are you blind?
. . .Anyways, that why I say you looked in the mirror. lol

By the way, your title calls God a mumu, that doesn't say much about the quality of your mind in most peoples books.

fstranger3:
Did you read the article at all?


It is unfortunate the the president's ADC was more important in the grand scheme of things than the VP, even Dimeji Bankole's name was mentioned,


I am beginning to think that GEJ is an ediot both in person and in spirit.

You might have seen your own reflection. Yar Adua's name is not on the list either.

mukina2:
For someone who forgets what he said or done in minutes, why would anyone take you serious?

In this thread alone you said
yet you still signed in as beaf?

Banned you without offense uh? That's why its good to copy others so they see how low some people can go to  gain 'online muscles'  , Thank God the admin and the mods on this section, plus the people always involved in your fights were copied each time you were warned and banned. Keep typing essays, it just exposes how low you can go

I have challenged you to post the offense. Why is it so difficult if there was any? LOL!
Post the link abeg.

Why should GEJ be mentioned in a roll call of criminals like Ibori, Turai, Aondokaa, Tanimu Yakubu etc?
Its a silly article from a mind that doesn't have any logical grasp.

Nigeria: PDP Not Greatest Threat to Democracy -Bakare
Austin Oboh
15 March 2011

Lagos — The blame trading which has trailed the failure of Nigerian opposition parties to form a united front against the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) reverberated on Monday in Lagos as Vice Presidential candidate of the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), Tunde Bakare, manipulated a South West politician and chief financier of a major opposition party for the fiasco.

Bakare spoke at an interactive session with the media and other stakeholders.

The fiery speaker disclosed that Lai Mohammed, spokesman of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), had suggested that Buhari should run for Presidency on the platform of the ACN, but that trouble came during the search for his running mate.

Though Bakare's choice was former Finance Minister, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, who he argued fulfilled all the requirements, including formidable credentials, regional, religious, and gender balance, the choice and others did not enjoy the favour of the former governor whose word is scarcely contradicted in the ACN.

[size=14pt]"The greatest danger to democracy today is not the PDP; it is somewhere located in the South West," he said, while noting that the details have already been provided by former Sokoto State Governor, Attahiru Bafarawa, at a recent public event.[/size]

Bakare maintained that one of the first steps the CPC government would take in the fight against corruption is to set in motion constitutional amendments to ensure the removal of immunity clause, which protects governors and the President from trial while in office.

In addition, a CPC government would abolish the office of the First Lady in order to end the squandering of public funds on their ceremonies, he said.

According to the church leader, who insists that Nigeria could be transformed into a great nation within four years, the nation is currently in a state of financial turmoil and cannot attract foreign investment - a fortune which, he pointed out, has gone to Ghana.

He added that though they would fight corruption to the finish, they would not, however, witch-hunt anybody but would build strong institutions to ensure that the apparatus of state is working again.

Lol. Poor Gbenga Daniel. I can't understand why he kept plunging Ogun state into crisis, now he's out on his ear.

Another silly thread intellectually and forcefully [size=33pt]debunked[/size]. lol

@Newscaster, you too wicked na!!!!

T9ksy:
@ Beaf,

No need to waste your valuable time on this issue as its a non-starter.
Buhari cannot islamise nigeria. The best he could do was to secretly make us a bonafide member of OIC.
But as per islamising the country, hell will freezes first.
it will surely accelerate the dismemberment of this dumb contraption, which will be a welcome thing.
Its one of the reasons why am incline to vote BB.
GEJ is nothing but a perpetuation of the status quo whilst Ribadu has already given up the chase with his recent statement.
I look forward to the day when nigeria cease to be.

Lol. An Islamist with our all powerful presidency in his paws is a very dangerous beast indeed, especially one that has been willy enough to create his an absolutely false persona, purely by being highly secretive (eg, hardly any pix of his wives or 9 kids exist).

Allow me create another scenario. Imagine a mythical ex-dictator gets his evil paws on the handles of state power; he rapidly uses his military knowledge to sieze control of the army and ochestrates a coup. . . Only that the coup is primarily directed at federal organ that dilute his power, the Senate and House of Reps. Governors are told to stand down.

. . .Sharia follows. What you gonna do when its too late?

[size=14pt]Ivory Coast murders and abuse of foreigners documented in report[/size]

Human Rights Watch hears victims from Mali, Nigeria and Burkina Faso tell of executions and violation by Gbagbo foot soldiers

The systematic persecution and murder of foreign nationals in Ivory Coast has been revealed in a harrowing eyewitness account obtained by human rights monitors.

A 21-year-old Malian man told Human Rights Watch how he and six other west Africans were forced to their knees in a dark basement and beaten with an iron bar. Five of the men were executed at point-blank range but he resisted and escaped.

The watchdog said it had documented the beating or burning to death of at least 14 west African immigrants in Ivory Coast. Its report chronicles rising atrocities on both sides of the country's political divide and said those committed by president Laurent Gbagbo's forces may constitute crimes against humanity.

The Malian national, who was not named, told the NGO how he narrowly avoided death on 6 March when he and six others were abducted and forced into two vehicles by militiamen.

"That day I was wearing dirty clothes from working as a porter," the man was quoted as saying. "That's how they knew I was Malian – we're most of the porters. As I was walking, six guys with Kalashnikovs came up behind me, and one of them stuck it into my back and pushed me toward the road. They did the same thing to a couple of others, and soon they had seven of us in total.

"We were all west African nationals. They forced us into two taxis, and when we arrived at an unfinished house they forced us to go down to a basement, where there were other guys with Kalashes waiting. It was dark down there, so they used their cellphones for lights to take us down. It smelled horrible."

He continued: "They beat us with an iron bar and a belt that had a sharp metal buckle. Four of them stood at guard with guns pointed on us at all times. All of them in the basement wore balaclavas. Then they attached black bandannas over the eyes of the first two guys, and one of the [pro-Gbagbo Young] Patriots executed [them] at point-blank range.

"Another guy was lighting the area for him with a cellphone to make sure he didn't miss, even though the distance was only two metres. They did the same to the next three guys, as they were begging for their lives. Five executed right next to me, as they were on their knees. The whole time they kept saying we were rebels, we were rebels.

"When they tried to put the bandanna on my head, I fought back. Every time they tried, I'd fight. So then they again beat me with the iron bar. I kept refusing to let them put the bandanna on, as did the guy next to me, a youth from Niger. Eventually I heard them say they would finish us off elsewhere, and they took us back outside."

The man concluded: "They forced the Nigerian guy into a taxi, but I saw another car coming and I took the chance to run for it. They fired two gunshots from behind, but didn't hit me. I ran and then once I got out of their sight, I found a spot to hide. Eventually I made it back home."

Ivory Coast has been locked in violent turmoil since a disputed November election between Gbagbo and his rival Alassane Ouattara, widely recognised as the winner.

Human Rights Watch described an organised pattern of xenophobic attacks. It said the homes, shops and mosques of hundreds of west Africans have been burned, and many have been chased out of their neighbourhoods under threat of death at the hands of pro-Gbagbo militias.

The majority of these attacks came immediately after Gbagbo's youth minister, Charles Bl Goud, called for "real" Ivorians to set up roadblocks in their neighbourhoods and "denounce" foreigners. A militant pro-Gbagbo group has warned Burkina Faso nationals to leave the country by 22 March.

Witnesses described to the watchdog how west Africans were killed by militiamen after being pulled out of taxis. Two marketplace porters were tied up, stuffed into their handcarts and set ablaze. A handicapped man from Burkina Faso accused by militiamen of hiding rebels in his house was brought into an abandoned building and set on fire. Attackers amputated the manlinesses of two other men, then killed them.

The report said: "Residents from Mali, Burkina Faso, Nigeria, and Niger gave detailed accounts of daily attacks by pro-Gbagbo security forces and armed militias, who beat foreign residents to death with bricks, clubs, and sticks, or doused them with gas and burned them alive."

Human Rights Watch also documented the violation of nine women by groups of militiamen and police operating together; all the victims were active and public members of Ouattara's political party. In two cases, the women were violated in front of family members, and the husband and father of the victims were then arbitrarily detained and remain "disappeared", the group said.

The report detailed how victims of political violence have been beaten to death with clubs, large pieces of concrete, knives, axes and machetes. Others had their throats slit or were doused with petrol and set ablaze.

It criticised gunmen claiming allegiance to Ouattara – who have taken over parts of north Abidjan in the past three weeks – for summary executions of 11 pro-Gbagbo troops captured since they rose up against the incumbent.

Daniel Bekele, Africa director at Human Rights Watch, said: "The time is long overdue for the UN security council to impose sanctions against Gbagbo and his allies directly implicated in the grave abuses of the post-election period. The international community should also send a clear message to Ouattara's camp that reprisal killings will place them next on the list."

PhysicsMHD:
It's indeed unfortunate what happened to Prof. Ambrose Alli.

Those were the days when there were honest politicians, but Buhari killed half of of them off. When they died, it was obvious that there was precious little to their names. Ajasin, the school teacher died poor, so did Ambose Alli who went blind from detention, yet they were very high calibre politicians.

Those that Buhari didn't kill were smothered by his protege, Babangida. Today, we have a horribly transformed country were even local government chairmen steal by the million, of course, governors steal in billions.

Buhari and his cohorts ra'ped Nigeria. It is noteworthy that Buhari released all the big league thieves who were of Fulani or Hausa or Muslim extraction, while killing off the Southern leaders, who while inept, were not overtly kleptomaniac. They created a vacuum (deliberate or not) that has been filled with creatures of the night like Ibori and Tinubu; where in the past, we had the penniless Tai Solarins, Ajasins etc. Men who only had their good names, but were respected, adored and had huge following.

Fela, yet another innocent Buhari victim:

https://www.kalamu.com/bol/wp-content/content/images/fela%20mixtape%20cover.jpg

Araba,
Thank you for that. Do we need to remind ourselve about Buhari's double standards. It was the opposition governors of the UPN,NPP and GNPP who were awarded long jail-term sentences by Buhari Tribunals. Most of the NPN stalwarts; Dikko, Akinloye, Yussuf, Akinjide 'ran' off to the UK.
There was a Dantata reportedly caught with drugs, he was not dragged to Buhari's tribunal to be executed. The case died a natural death just like the 53 suitcases.
Under Buhari, Fela, the greatest musician ever, bringing in money to Nigeria, was judicially labelled an economic saboteur and thrown into Buhari's gaol.

Buhari had no respect whatsover for the Igbo, when he constituted a cabinet without an Igbo person. It was the protest to that injustice that forced him to change his mind.
Buhari treated people practising a religion which is not islam with a lot of disrespect. All his principal appointments including his deputy, COAS etc were all moslems.
Buhari simply has no role in the future of Nigeria. Well he is capable of contributing to the dismember of the country if that is what people want.

Most likely, facebook deleted your offensive comments, not GEJ. Facebook has a policy to remove any content that is offensive, racist etc. Your posts on NL generally fall in that unwholesome category, so no surprises.

Why waste time whining on NL, write your complaint to facebook, begging them to make special exceptions for you to be foul-mouthed and offensive. lol!

April 9th is the day that we will say "12 years is enough" to PDP.In the past 12 years,what has PDP achieved compared to the amount of money this country generated over these years? Nothing to show for it except insecurity,poor standard of living,shambolic infrastructure,etc.For example,the Benin-Ore road has been in bad shape since 1999.How long is it gonna take to fix it? Instead they keep awarding the contracts on the pages of newspaper while there is nothing on ground to show for it.Do you know the number of people that have died using that road since 1999.
Our refineries are not working yet they claim to have spent billions of dollars on the so-called turn around maintenance (TAM) of the refineries.We keep importing refined petroleum products enriching and lining the pockets of the cabal who are the importers of these products.
A vote for GEJ is a vote for OBJ,Anenih and the likes.April 9th is the day that we all will rescue this country from the present mess and rot.If GEJ can convince me and prove that he's not a puppet,I will vote for him.But,the truth is,he can't do without the cabal.I agree Late President Yar'Adua was not fully fit but it was when he started going against the wishes of the cabal that his health started deteriorating.Your guess is as good as mine what they must have done to remove from there.

A vote for BB is a vote for a corruption free Nigeria.The time to improve our international image is now.My green Nigerian passport must start to command respect in foreign airports unlike what's obtainable now.

Vote BB 2011

I have never seen so much nonsense packed into a single post. The bolded is the only thing worthy of attention, because to all but the blind and deliberately ignorant, for the first time in decades, ALL of Nigeria's refineries are working at near installed capacity. If you do not understand the import of such an acheivement, then you can't be helped.

Funny thing is those same people causing disruption will all fall in line on the day that matters, cos they are for sale. lol
