I just wonder why people try to play the role of God. Regardless of what has happened or what is going on, it makes sense to simply allow God do the judgement.
It will be very interesting if Aikhomu goes to heaven while all the people that continue to bash him become the citizens of hell.

Just chill out, guys.

And who is going to judge you?

IBB is a culprit of so many atrocities and crimes yet is still hailed as a king by many. The SAP's in the eraly 90's ruined the Nigerian economy, the billions in which he has stashed and the lives he has taken are unaccounted for , yet a so called pastor wants to write him poems,

So be it,

Not only Okotie, our president also wrote one.

IBB became an ex president more than 15 yrs ago and yet he still gets the utmost salute from every angle. If this doesn't tell you that this man is blessed nothing else will.
If you don't believe me, just go and visit his hilltop mansion before the end of the day and you will realize that if you're picked my God human beings can only try, but you can not be touched.

IBB is blessed.

Still one of the finest, smartest and the most charismatic leader Nigeria has ever produced.
Absolutely, one of a kind.

Happy birthday!

God is the only king of all kings. Ask him for forgiveness and continue to live your life and allow your haters to go kill themselves.
Still one of the finest, smartest and the most charismatic leader Nigeria has ever produced.

Happy birthday!

He is gregarious, yet not boisterous
He is evasive, yet not reclusive
He could be Machiavelli, yet arrayed as a political Armani
He is fluid in his aquarian disposition, yet rock-solid in his intrinsic determination

We salute one of the last great senior generals of the great Nigerian host
To IBB , the great Kahuna himself,
We say happy birthday, Sir, at 70
May the Lord grant you prosperity and longevity.

I love it!

This is an incredible poem and a nice way to salute one of the greatest leaders Nigeria has ever produced. How sweet it could have been to see this wonderful man lead this great nation back to the promise land.

And it will be unfair to blame anyone that sees anything wrong with this magnificent poem; trust me, if you knew IBB well enough you would have written the same or something even better without any hesitation.

By the way, there is nothing better than seeing this beautiful poem tattooed on MAMAJAMA's back side, that will make me very happy.

Why do you people crave to waste your energy on unfruitful allegation coming from bunch of clowns?
Why are they (Senate Committee) pretending?
And who is fooling who?

Look, bribe or gift or whatever you want to call it has been part of our defective system in Nigeria for over 40yrs. The only difference now is that Nigerians do not hide it anymore, getting or giving gift is done openly; it is what it is, you want us to do our jobs you must be willing to settle us. Even gate man expects to get gift before revealing whether oga dey home or not. It is very sad, but it is real.
Senate Committee can do us a favor by saving the drama.

I can name up to 30 governors, senators and even a few presidents that have accepted the same kind of gift recently or in the past. Hence, instead of attempting to target El-Rufai for a political reason, I suggest that Senate Committee should keep it real and target our defective system, this way this type of corruption method is killed and buried once and for all.

Expect more games and stories because our leaders are still not sincere and absolutely not serious, trust me.

Please keep in mind that I'm not in support of any entity, but if the young American soldiers that were being sent to Iraq to look for the invisible WMD were to be instructed to kill their father, would they go for it?
My friend, would they go for it?

In defence of Al-Mustafa - some of the charges against him can not stand due to the doctrine of military.
We must not forget that Abacha's regime was mostly guarded by the military protocols that gave Al-Mustafa no other choice but to follow the instructions of the commander in chief.

It is beginning to become clearly obvious that the Federal Government isn't ready for all the things Al-Mustafa is getting ready to reveal to the world, hence, I predict that a closed-door plea bargain or agreement that will favor Al-Mustafa tremendously will be struck in a very short time.
The GANGSTAS can not afford this drama to continue to go on, the drama must go away forever as soon as possible.

FYI: Al-Mustafa was illegally put away for a very long time without a trial simply because the Federal Government was aware that he knew just too much, and didn't really understand the best way to approach the unwanted saga. Furthermore, they couldn't afford to kill him because they knew he has already shared this info and evidence with a couple of other folks (they're not sure of the identification of these folks) just in case anything funky happens.

It is a matter of time, all charges against Al-Mustafa will go away like a rain water and he will be released asap.

The strategy will be: He will be convicted to 12 years in jail; but keep in mind that he has already been locked up for almost 15 years, therefore the dude will be released right away and his desirable bank account will be loaded with up to N10b.

This is simply what I think will happen in the next few months, you don't have to believe me.
Chikina!!!

Now the game just begin, MTN, Airtel, Etisalat and Starcom etc are in deep trouble.

Bravo to Glo!

Effectively and Efficiently****

One would have expected president Goodluck Jonathan to visit Lagos State to show a presidential concern and support to Lagosians, in aftermath of last Sunday's devastating massive flooding in the state.

Leadership is not by force, it's not for sale and absolutely not for everybody.

Goodluck Jonathan is an incredible human being, but personally I do not think the man has what it takes to lead the great nation effectively and efficiency.

@tricici: yes, one of my staffs got fired last week simply because she entered my office smelling like a combo of orange and pepper soup.

FYI: Your staffs are the identity of your organization, and the identity of your organization belongs to you, therefore, it is up to you to make adjustment when it is necessary regardless of whose cousin is on the way.

It is that simple.

Mike Adenuga, the hardest working machine I know,

A typical example of the slogan "action speaks louder than just noise".
Mike has been the richest in Africa for more than 10 years now. He absolutely does it his own way.

Visit: mikeadenugafoundation.org

Folks, watch out and Man-U fan look out, Mike is about to make it happen once again.

Emulate, don't hate.

@Undiluted: it isn't a magic. The key here is working hard and staying focused.

Mike is the hardest working machine I know!

Emulate, don't hate.

Absolutely one of a kind.
The hardest working machine I know!

It is very obvious that the topic poster is extremely frustrated and I can also tell that this dude doesn't live in Nigeria (may be he can't even return back to Nigeria).

Instead of knocking down his country, his brothers and sisters, my advise for him is to focus more on how to effectively help this country move to the next level.
It is nevel too late for a great country like Nigeria. And Nigerians in general will remain one of a kind thru out the entire world.

No need to ambush the poster, the brother is simply sick and tired of Nigerians and Nigeria in general.

Educate him!

Our problems are way too far from Nigerians thinking whether they are smart or not.
I think we should focus more on the root of our problems.
This root is very simple and divided into 10 categories:
1. Corruption
2. Corruption
3. Corruption
4. Corruption
5. Corruption
6. Corruption
7. Corruption
8. Corruption
9. Corruption
10.Corruption.

The big question remains the same: How do we effectively promote war against corruption?

I'm not a Tinubu supporter, because I see him as an obstacle, a coward that loves power, attention and stolen money.
However, we must not totally ambush Fashola so fast, because he's honestly trying his best in some areas.
Those PDP members talking rubbish can die and go straight to hell. They can never match the half job Mr. Push-over (Gov Fashola) is managing to do in Lagos state, even if each of these PDP members has 4 extra legs and hands.

A Spade must be called A spade, and not a Range Rover.

@revolt: Absolutely on point.
If IBB was our president today, regardless of his past record (either good or bad) we would have been experiencing major development all over this great country.

It is all about the sharpness of your common sense.

Nigeria remains the most easiest country to lead.
Our problems are straight forward and solutions to them are even clearer.

It takes a lion like IBB to bring the change that we all deserve in this country.

Not a curse, but nothing much will be done for the next 4 yrs; Simply because our president is a complete lost man.

Pls pls pls, do not expect much from this man ( you do not get disappointed if you do not expect anything).

I will not stop embracing the intelligence of IBB until I discover a brighter match.

^^^^ that was for Tennytanny

People like you are the reason why folks like Tinubu will suck this country dry and other politicians will continue to ignore their responsibilities.

All I have said is our government could have done better not only to prevent this terrible situation, but also to assist citizens.

It is now 3 days, could you pls list all the things these thieves are doing to assist Lagosians? Could you pls list things they have put in place to prevent this from occurring again?

Believe it or not, we are up against or experiencing all these ridiculous scenario because our government knows nothing about priority.

Without a clear understanding of how to structure your priority, you're a lost man.
This is why we are all here today.

Take a ride to Iyano Igbaja and see what real Lagosians are experiencing.

This is a great nation and a wealthy country, we deserve more.

People in Lagos woke up on Sunday to watch the down fall of Lagos State.

With all the money being generated in Lagos on a daily basis, I think something better should have been done to allow water to flow properly.

And any time we turn around pin-heads will tell you how Tinubu (the biggest thief in Nigeria today) and Fashola (Mr.Pushover) are the greatest human beings on this planet.

It is a shame and also unbearable to watch what Lagosians are experiencing for the past 3 days. The water is so high in some areas that folks are practically on the roof of their houses.
No School, No Work, No food, properties being destroyed and diseases are building up like no man's business.
But yet, "EKO ONI BAJE".

With confidence I can assure you that absolutely nothing will be done to help average Lagosians to alleviate from discomfort, distress and social problem caused by this (avoidable) despicable situation.

Rotimi Amechi chased Odelli out of town, surrounded himself with good people and ever since then he has been making great things happen in his state.

If Mr.Pushover (Fashola) can just man up and ask Tinubu to get lost, real miracle will happen in Lagos state in a very short period.

Fact: The best 2 roads in Lagos belong to Tinubu; the first one will take you to his house and the second one will take you to his hotel (Oriental Hotel).
You don't have to believe me, just take a time out to check.

What do you get from painting a Ferrari that has a defective engine?
Fashola should stop painting Lagos state with Golden paint and come out like a man to deal with real issues that continue to kill an average Lagosian each and every day.

Shame! Shame! Shame!
Eko ti baje!!!

The greatest advise I've seen so far coming from any politician in Nigeria.

I'm sure that Goodluck has no choice, but to listen to his father.

You do not claim a father without knowing for sure that what you will be getting is real.

Goodluck will do well and remain stronger only if he continues to listen to IBB, the wisdom maker and the owner of the most sensible common sense amongst the bunch.

Believe or not, this may not be a bad thing for Nigeria (of course we don't want to embrace anything uncivilized).

But this new development may result into a sincere intervention of the big muscle, eg America and UK.

All our bad leaders will finally be exposed and government may not have any other choice but to start listening to the citizens by providing all necessary basic things, eg good schools, hospitals, roads, employments, constant power supply, reliable security etc.

Again, we do not want Nigeria to turn into Iraq or Afghanistan, but something must be done to turn this table around. The kids are crying and the old ones are severely struggling.

Instead of paying attention to where the advise is coming from, why not save your energy and focus more on the content of the advise?
Pointing fingers and throwing stones will only leave this country behind for a very long time.

The leadership and wisdom being displayed my IBB makes him one of the best, may be the smartest politician around today.
I pray for others (like OBJ, Bode George, Tinubu etc) to follow his foot steps. And allow this lovely country to fly high again.

Furthermore, I now clearly understand why Goodluck claimed IBB as his Father, his angel and role model during the 2011 presidential campaign.
When it comes to picking someone to look up to, I think Goodluck is on point.

This type of advise is priceless and still the best thing that has come out of any politician's mouth this year.

Again, ignoring sentiment, embracing unity and solutions to our problems remain the only way out and the best thing that can ever happen to this great nation.

A golden bravo goes to IBB once again.

Again, with strict conditions (this may be modifying our weak constitution) and a complete support of Nigerians, I think Buhari will be successful enormously: and Nigeria will fly high again.

All it takes to effectively tackle corruption in this country is simply making life extremely difficult for those people/ politicians who have killed the future of this great nation.
And to make this happen, an iron hand needs to be applied.

A man who isn't afraid, who is disciplined, absolutely a military man who loves Nigeria more than anything else must be selected to lead this institution.
Without any questions, Buhari looks extremely better than anybody else to take over these duties.

We must ignore sentiment and embrace solutions to our problems; or else politicians will continue to r@pe us until the end of time.

Fact: Politicians will never never get tired of stealing our money, they have to be stopped immediately.

Trust me, You do not want to see land and mansions that belong to Nigerian Politicians in South Africa, Ghana, London, Dublin, Dubai, France, Mexico, St. John (USVI), USA and other countries all around. This is the time to rescue this wonderful,wealthy nation from the hands of blood suckers.

I say, bring it on; Buhari for EFCC chairman.

I guess, Nairaland Forum is working:     https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-694770.0.html

It has been confirmed that the latest news in Abuja is finding the best strategy to persuade Buhari to take over the control of EFCC.
This is the only way forward and a priceless gift President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan can give Nigerians.

I have confidence that with strict conditions the general with be excited to take the position.
If corruption is tackled effectively, efficiently and sincerely, sky is the limit to everything in this country.

I pray that our president will have enough courage and wisdom to safe the presence and the future of this great nation. Buhari should be picked as soon as possible to lead this institution.

Enough is enough, Nigeria must move forward.

I now wonder why everybody, (including your favorite sister) says you look just like me.
Hey, may God bless you; keep supplying me with the medication (viagra) and I assure you that you will have a little brother you've been asking for.

Have a nice night, son.

But you also know that with medication, I will make her holla.

I will take more medicine (Viagra) as soon as I'm done with your mo**** (u know who).

Just when I thought political god-fatherism had become history, I never knew we aint seen nothing yet. I only hope we wont have in Lagos as well, the "Royal Rumble" that left the Oyo/Ibadan people gaping from their hiding places a couple of years back.

@Bubllie: it wouldn't go that far.
Nigerians are getting smarter and the youth are also getting tired of using the same expired medicine with pretty much nothing to show for it.
It is a matter of time for Nigerians to start claiming what belongs to them. I have confidence that things will continue to change for better.
