dayokanu: Have you also checked the Geography of those who called Yar Adua names like Yar'Adull? or the geography of those who insulted OBJ without relenting during his 8yrs

I dont expect a bigot like you to think that deep anyway

AjanleKoko: Interestingly, it's only on the web and social media that you find a pocket of GEJ defenders. Like on Nairaland.

I was in Yenagoa a while back. It was curses for the man all the way, by the common people; traders, okada-men, artisans, etc.
Just like how Yorubas hated/still hate OBJ's guts till tomorrow.

GboyegaD: I now know how backward you are in your thinking. Go to the various slums you have in Bayelsa and ask if they like Jonathan. You cannot use those here on NL to reach a conclusion because many of the Niger Deltans here supporting him are those who have benefitted one way or the other from his inefficiencies and corruption. Go get a life and stop exhibiting your stu,pidity here on NL. We all know you are a beneficiary of the corrupt government as such, you can never tell the truth.

Beaf: Stop the dishonesty about the South-East or South-South. We all know what the truth of the ugly game is. Ask ACN.

AjanleKoko: The average Nigerian is not much different from GEJ anyways. Weak, stupid, lazy, and foolish.
That doesn't exonerate GEJ anyways. The only people praising him in Nigeria seem to be mostly people of his ilk, who are directly connected to his fortunes. Plus, maybe some people who are from his part of the country and don't live in Nigeria. They can afford the luxury of supporting him, since their lives are intact anyway.

The average South-East or South-South Nigerian who lives in Nigeria, detests GEJ and his government. Just like the average northerner detests IBB, and the average South-Westerner detests OBJ. The three men are all criminals that have played, or continue playing, their ignoble parts in ruining Nigeria. Shikena.

noiseless: A lot of posters are vomiting sh1t on this topic mainly because the casava is no from "WHITEMAN COUNTRY", that is the nigerian mentality "i don't want to be seen eating inferior local products" and it doesn't matter whether they are actually inferior quality or of very good quality and affordable too, as long as they are not made in "OYIBO COUNRTRY WITH OYIBO LABEL". Yet here is a country where about 8 in 10 of the populations live below 1 dollar a day.

ballabriggs: Mugu. Demand for steel? What happened to pipelines? Is clay used in making it? What of the oil rigs can't a certain percentage be made using locally sourced steel? Nigeria at a time Had ANNAMCO, VOLKSWAGEN, MAN, Nigerian Machine tool company, Peugeot Automobile and the Truck manufacturing company in Northern Nigeria. Do those industries use clay? What of railway construction? What of buildings? What of road construction? A steel industry boosts linkages within the economy. Have you seen any developed or rapidly developing country without a steel base? Steel is everything. It is a known fact that the US govt shortly after WW2 took over its steel industries. Like I said you are a mugu. You see Facebook because your Oga likes it but you have failed to question how those guys started. Finally, tell your Oga that Facebook is not built without a sound education system. It takes research, training and technical servicing to achieve these things. What has your Oga done except to make noise all over the place. How much can primary products contibute to an economy with a large population such as Nigeria's. Ajaokuta died because greedy souls like your Oga never let it live!

kodewrita: We can generate a crude dataset of the graph. Just select a sample of 100 popular posters(beaf, Idowuogbo, Onila, Musiwa etc) in an excel sheet and list out all the nodes.

...

there's lots and lots you could do. ( my mind is already considering what nouns and verbs their posts tend to have in common e.g who's else has a similar amount of 'GEJ' scattered all over his posts like Beaf).

...

donfineboi: To be honest ballabriggs is making a very factual point. Beaf u r just beafing...... Sometimes it is best to apply reason, don't be one sided, but I guess ddep in ur heart u know he's tellling d truth......

kingoflag: I'm starting to learn how to ignore hypocrites like Jermaine, Beaf and that terrorist, Alhaji Harem; I'd advice you to take the same route. If they're too stu.pid to realize that your freedom should at least include what they consume, trust me, nothing you say will assuage them.

ballabriggs: Haha is it similar to the one Babangida and DFRRI had? We have seen this same story before.

What of India? What of Malaysia? What of Brazil? Stop eating cassava bread mugu!

ballabriggs: I say you're a mumu confirmed. There should be a plan which covers all aspects of the nations agricultural sector and not restricted to cassava and crop production.

ballabriggs: Secondly, have you seen any developed economy or a rapidly developing economy without a steel mill or a chemical industry. These are industries critical to development. China and Malaysia as developing countries understand this and thus one sees their involvement in these industries. Even Brazil and Russia have theirs. You've not gotten the basics right yet you want microsoft and google. These industries are geared towards boosting linkages in the economy. Look at China all over Africa looking for mines to meet their needs while your Oga is sleeping on cassava bread. Yeye dey smell.

ballabriggs: Mr man stop lying. Fair enough there are restrictions on food colouring in the EU. However, because of tradition and the British consumers preference for greener peas and well coloured sausages, Britain is exempted from certain aspects of the law. Traditionally we have always known wheat bread and not the cassava your oga wants to force down our throat. So to talk like the law is rigid is incorrect.

ballabriggs: If Mr Jonathan is serious about promoting Domestic Industries, we would see it. Only a mumu like you who worships Jona to earn a living would gloat over this rubbish. No one says public procurement laws are not good but there must be a clear plan for domestic production if not you create distortions in the market and thus impact negatively on the surplus of consumers. You don't just come out -like Babangida did in the late 1990s- and say you are putting controls on certain products when there is little capacity on ground. He does not need all these political jamboree. What the hell is Cassava? If indeed he is serious about boosting linkages in the Nigerian economy, we would see meaningful progress in industries such as the steel rolling mills. Those industries are critical to the nations development and not the rubbish they tell you about SMEs. SMEs survive because of the presence of those heavy industries as linkages are created. Tell your Oga he is not serious!

ballabriggs: A very petty bill. Should lawmakers occupy themselves with such petty bills? Firstly, it is hypocritical to advocate for a deregulated markets while also placing controls on the content of a product or products. Secondly, one might be forced to ask, is the capacity for local production of cassava sufficient in the Nigerian economy? Such controls have little effect where capacity is limited because it leads to a distortion of markets thus further eroding the welfare of consumers. Thirdly, if indeed such controls are desirable, then it would have been more appropriate to pass a law promoting local content in various sectors of the economy and not limited to 'Cassava' and flour production. One is thus forced to ask, why is Mr. Jonathan obsessed with cassava flour. Is it most critical to reviving the nations economy? There are numerous sectors of the economy were linkages could be promoted. Like I said earlier such bills are better thrown out because it is not a serious bill. It is a petty bill and the Legislators would do well to occupy themselves with more serious legislative duties.

Kobojunkie: You do not have to be a genius to understand what is wrong with what you have above, you know? You are told the bill will force the use of Cassava in production of bread. How can you have whole wheat bread when instead of wheat, a portion of it[b]javascript:void(0);[/b] is cassava. How the frell can you call that whole wheat?

My gosh, I can't image imagine what the texture of those muffins will be.

egift: Recommendation? Very funny guys...again recommendation

When he wanted 6 years single tenure...did he recommend it? Did he not send a bill to the National Assembly? If he wants a result he know what to do. But if he wants to dance to the gallery and impress you, this what we get.

Jonathan do not need the general overhaul of the constitution before he can suspend the immunity clause, that is the fact.

babaniyen1: Jonathan is a full while Adoke is a bigger full. Andoaka's brother. bunch of rubbish

Fhemmmy: Cos the leaders too dont care about the people they leading . . . .

blacksta: to do , will do , promise to do , i am about to do , we are going to do

Oya Foolish Nigerians come here quick and swallow another Retarded Promise

HOOK, LINE AND SINKER

egift: Jonathan should lead by example. How about signing an executive order excluding himself from the clause or send a bill to National Assembly exempting himself. That way pressure can be mounted on others, am sure if they have money to share, they always find a way to get round it. But when it comes to doing something significant - bottle necks everywhere.

All this mad dance to the gallery is becoming very painful to watch.

monkeyleg: @Beaf,

wetin do Uduaghan na? U dey escort am come??
