CoolAmbience:
Buhari will win whether or not he supports him.

He's got just one vote. The president has done well to deserve another term in office.

if u are asked what he did to deserve a second term, u will start saying " atiku cannot go to US"
chronic ZOMBIES

Denikayan:
For what...

This is the most meaningless bill passed in last 5 decades

The West Development Commission bill should be of higher priority as thats where they end up running to at the end of the day making the region crowded and demanding infrastructural development


They still wont stay put even if you develop the place as they averagely have an ideology of believing they can only make it in the West

yorubas fought and laid down their lives in 1967 for the igbos to be in the south west.
yes, we make it everywhere including the west. we are gifted
our remaining in the west is just s a mark of respect for ur fallen heroes

netpro:
Any one supporting the signing of that fraudulent document into law is very unpatriotic.

The existing law was good for the PDP to use. We will keep using it until the present rigging template the PDP are pushing for is cleaned up and fixed.

Atiku came back from Dubai with 2 things in agenda:

- Right the election with Saraki's crafted Bill of rigging.
- To sell the NNPC in 6 months.

Since both have failed, PDP are now panicking like drowning clowns.

Nigeria will remain on the path of progress. Come 2019, it is Buhari all the way!

"The existing law was good for the PDP to use. We will keep using it until the present rigging template the PDP are pushing for is cleaned up and fixed."

so nigeria should continue with fraudulent elections because PDP used it. i thought u people came to clear 16yrs mess. or u and ur party have agreed that the electoral law is good and does not need amendment.
i thought u people said u are patriots.
why do u want evil to continue to bedevil the country

PMB IS SMARTER!
By: Adolf Ransom Pepple
Atiku has engaged the man who allegedly manipulated the United States presidential election results in favour of Donald Trump. He has paid the man $1m to help him rig Nigeria's presidential election in his favour.
But when they were strategizing in Dubai, it was observed that such rigging cannot happen in Nigeria if electronic transmission of results is not deployed.
The Senate President, Bukola Saraki, who is Atiku's Campaign DG smartly manipulated the electoral act bill, removed the clause that says votes should be counted. It contains only the one that says results should be announced. He also made it mandatory that results should be transmitted electronically in a country where almost half of its territory has no communication network. How can you announce a result that was not counted? So their rigging expert can manipulate the figures online. If he could do it in United States, is it in Nigeria that he cannot do it? This is the secret behind their jactitations that they will defeat President Muhammadu Buhari.
And one Oby Ezekwesili, one of Obasanjo's stooges, called a Press Conference to persuade President Buhari to give assent to such rubbish. Presidential candidate my ass!
The obvious is that President Buhari will never sign that document. We will use the electoral act put together by a PDP-dominated National Assembly, and assented to by a PDP president of Nigeria. Any other position on this matter is absolute bunkum!
Saraki and Dogara can do whatever they like. Let them override the president and assent to the electoral bill. Let us see who would implement it.
This was what they went to Dubai to plan. But if you hold your own in your palm, do you know what I have in my pocket?
President Buhari and APC are always two steps ahead of them. Let the heaven fall. That manipulation cannot stand. It will not come to pass.
I rest my case!

u didnt make sense.

"PDP dominated national assembly and PDP presidency"
but i thought u have come to correct the wrongs of PDP sixteen years. thats what u peeps be shouting up and down.
so everything about our election is good abi
or u people are tacitly endorsing "16yrs of damage"

let me see any of u shouting 16yrs of damage again here

orisa37:
Osinbajo is a Friend and an Apostle of Jesus Christ. He is the present day King David for the Presidency. He has the Experience, Education and Anoiting to succeed in 2019.
All hail President Osinbajo.

stop deceiving urself.
no southerner can win the presidency again without the support of both south east and south west
so stop deceiving ur self that a northerner will hand over to u on a plater of gold. it only happened with OBJ

given the level of tribal politics now, it can never happen again. you can quote me

there is malnutrition in nasarawa. na wao

zombies , how far. ur lies of bountiful agricultural produce has been bursted

i said it earlier. those supporting bad govt because of tribe, religion and hatred for the igbos are the cause of this kind of tragedy

SportingArena:
How idiot like u want to make us to believe that Buhari is a disaster while Jonathan was a success still baffles me.

its not about calling somebody idiot. the indicators are there, both locally and internationally.
remember herdsmen killings, remember IDP camps, remember leah sharibu, remember maina issue, remember $26b NNPC issue, remember what the wife is complaining about, remember the current price of fuel, remember WAEC certificate issue, remember medical tourism issue in london, remember the high cost of goods at this level not to talk of next level. the NEXT level eh, everybody go cry including u chronic zombie that cannot decipher things on ur own

why did u call jona, did i tell u he was an astounding success, but its glaring even to the blind that he was far better off than what we have now.
we wanted sombody that will right the wrongs of the past not complainants that took advantage of our dissatisfactions and campaigned on that premise. only to jetisson its own promises and started behaving worst. they dont even allow street protests if u are not for them, something they enjoyed very well under jona

Okoyeeboz:
Yeah yeah. Bring it on.

Since you refused to learn from GEJ's stupidity in insulting Yorubas, we would teach you the lesson your parents failed to give you.

Any Yoruba person who votes for Peter Obi is a bastard.

see you, as if u are doing igbos. if u vote for disaster again, is it not the same market both igbos and yorubas will attend? we are all in it together.
look at the first disaster u people caused in 2015, is it not all of us that are suffering it? ur people are even suffering more. shioor

efighter:
Yes, the first coup is an Igbo coup and you people will continue suffering for it till eternity.

nzeogwu the coup leader is from south south

or do u now agree that south east and south south are one

TheAngry1:
Everybody wan score cheap political points. Buhari did not order Deji's arrest, SIMPLE. Some people here will soon start to blame Buhari for their weak erections and low sperm count.

he did not order it, i agree
but he should order his release

yes , he can

TheGreenLand:
See them turning the death of our soldiers to politics.
Shame on you all.

so anybody that says the obvious truth is now politicking

receive sense

SolutionMee:


Is this the new strategy adopted and used by Nigerians to gain cheap public recognition? Everyone now has a brother in the military. How can people be this wicked? Why playing with the lives of our lost sissies?

Heroes don't die on the battlefield. Weaklings do. Moreover, the FG will compensate the families of the deceased. So what's the fuss all about?

oh! I know this moniker

he/she is one of the zombies

AFONJACOW:
most annoying thing about all these news , Northern elders and their silence, if it were jonathan come see all these Almajiri elders reacting like chemical reaction, they still blame Jonathan for Sai Barbar incompetency

where is MURIC

or do they only reacted against good things?

megamank:
After the nyanya and emab plaza bomb blast who resigned? Na another man oil de always good to chop community yam....

why would they not resign? i thought they said that they are not finding it easy clearing 16yrs PDP mess

so if its so difficult , let them resign so that those that can do it easily can take over

its hard, its hard, clearing 16yrs PDP mess is hard. resign naa. abi them tie u rope?

MrMurphy:
every sane person know that it's very easy to destroy than to build and anyone crucifying this government on the slow pace of development should first come out with the 16 years achievement files of PDP. Nigeria has lost some of the resources to the few cabals on the detriment of the country's development and it'll take a little time before thus present government can make adjustment

the constitution has given u guys four years to proove urselves as electable for a second term.

obviously u people have failed.

no govt performs better in their second term when they have nothing to loose, find out.

they perform best in first term so as to curry favour for second term.

u and fashola and fayemi and others should spare us this " we need more time" trick

remember u people told us to stone u if after two years u didnt performance. so whats all this 16yrs referencing coming from

if its not easy for u. leave the space for people that can do it easily

sixteen years that u were part of

ok, since its not easy for u people, leave the road for people that can do it easily

its not easy, its not easy, and u are still there. gluttons

what does he even know about love to warrant killing himself

thats stupidity

blacknp:
Who will give you electricity when you do not want to pay?Nigeria has the lowest electricity tariffs in West Africa,shameless people,you think electricity is cheap?,why didn’t shell and general electricity buy the infrastructures when pdp sold it to quacks?

Same goes for gasoline,Nigeria has the cheapest petrol in west Africa,who will invest their money in the oil and gas sector to build refineries when the people don’t want to pay the rates demanded by the markets?They want the government to subsidize everything for them?what this present government has been able to do is amazing,nothing good comes easy,Blackman not ready to sacrifice,wants to eat and piss in the same place. Lazy specimen.

who told u that we dont want to pay

let them provide the electricity and give us prepaid meter, that will solve that problem of "you dont want to pay"

princealexndre:
well for me I have travelled 4 states within this past 3 weeks and stayed 4 day at least in each... I must tell you I was impressed.. Back in Lagos now and everything seems Absolutely fine concerning power supply.. I think if we can maintain and perfectionate. The change we are seek we shall enjoy...

No be only change

My dear for every household u see light, another household somewhere was denied light. They do sharing formular in almost every part of the country, if not all . Is that what u call light?

Is that the change they promised?

tumababa:
lol. so u don't have a governor or CP? everything na president u go blame. and u want development?

but when we asked for decentralisation of power so that we can start blaming the governors and our local leaders , people like u kicked against it. why are u bringing it up now again. stop shifting blames, afterall the zamfara governor has resigned as the chief security officer of the state

until PMB resign also as the chief security officer of the country. we will continue to blame him .

obailala:
How in God's earth do we still have people who believe and share this nonsensical election campaign bare faced lie and lame propaganda?... Oga it is 2018 and you still believe this rubbish?... that between 2011 and 2015, Nigeria fixed or rehabilitated over 20,000km of roads?... and you also believe that Fashola is the one who said or endorsed this?

How many kilometres of roads does Nigeria have in total?... 25000km of roads will stretch from Lagos to London and back 5 times. And you believe a Nigerian government fixed that amount in 4 years?... That amount was fixed and not a single major road in the entire SE or important roads like the East-West road were included?.... Were all those roads built in the moon or in the coven?.... Jonathanians, I hail!!! One really meets wonderful characters on this forum.

fashola the minister of works and an opposition memeber said so, not me. u can google it
http://pointblanknews.com/pbn/exclusive/jonathan-constructed-more-roads-than-any-other-nigerian-president-fashola/

obailala:
I'm not doubting you, I only said I don't remember reading anywhere where the supreme court gave a ruling on the ECA matter. So please if you can point me in the right direction, just post any link to the effect that the supreme court gave a ruling.

By the way, the above is even inconsequential; the state and local governments only had 48% of the funds and it was their money and their right to decide what to do with their share. Even the so called trio of APC governors which some people are fond of shifting all blame to collectively received less than 5% of the total ECA fund. So the big question still begging for answers is, why did the FG not save given that it legally still owned 52% of the funds?... Did the phantom supreme court order also force GEJ's FG to swallow its 52%?.. did the supreme court order also force the FG to deplete foreign reserves from over $42billion to $28.6 billion even at a time of excess oil revenue?

we have agreed to share and spend. why should the FG not spend hers if others are spending according to their rights.
FG spent hers according to law its rights

btw, its the spending by both parties (FG and states) that cuased the problem

hope u know that GEJ built the most roads in the country... fashola. where would he have gotten money from if he doesnt spend his


JONATHAN CONSTRUCTED MORE ROADS THAN ANY OTHER NIGERIAN PRESIDENT – FASHOLA
written by Our Reporter December 9, 2015
UMOBILE_600X90B
Babatunde Raji Fashola , Nigeria’s Minister for Power, Works and Housing on Tuesday while unveiling his plans praised the achievements of former President Goodluck Jonathan.

Fashola during his first news conference tagged “Setting the Agenda for Delivering Change” said that Goodluck Jonathan has constructed more roads than any president ever in Nigeria.

He also acknowledged that the Transformation in the power sector is above 50 % and that he would try to build on it.

Minister of State for Works, Adebayo Adeyeye, also said that Jonathan’s administration has recorded more success in the provision of motorable roads than any other administration in the history of Nigeria.

Adeyeye, who spoke as a guest on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily programme on Monday, insisted that the Jonathan administration has made considerable progress in the road sector, more than any of the governments that have administered the country.
According to him, the administration in 2011 had about 4,500 kilometres of fairly motorable roads, just as he explained that today the administration has about 25,000 kilometres of very good roads.

obailala:
I'm not sure I understand what link your comment has with the my previous comment. Who's talking avout court order here?... Besides, governors also took the FG to court under OBJ and Yaradua but they kept battling the case till the end. GEJ's government only gave-in after it was caught dipping its hands into the cookie jar and depleting the funds without the knowledge of the governors..I dont remember the court giving any definitive ruling on that matter or asking the FG to release the funds.

Just to clarify, there were 36 governors at the time, and about 24 were from PDP. But any time the pdp wants to absolve itself from the blame of not saving for the rainy day when there was plenty, the overused excuse is always, "Amaechi, Fashola and Oshiomole were against saving"; this time they were graceful enough to have added Akpabio's name in the mix (obviously because Akpabio is now APc). So my question is, what sort of lame and politically childish excuse is that? Out of 36 governors, they just single out 3 APC governors?... Were the remaining governors robots or zombies that didnt have an opinion?...

By the way, the money belonged to the states, so if states refused to save their own money, is that the reason the FG would also not save especially considering that the FG had the lion share (52%) and was in charge of the overall economy?

supreme court gave order that the money should be shared. shikeena
and GEJ obeyed

Rebelutionary:
Oga I already told you that I am not making heads or tail of what you are saying because what is on the front page is OKONJO IWEALA'S book blaming some governors for not saving! I will appreciate if you don't mention me again. Thank you

whenever they sense somebody that can tackle them head on, they start singing .... dont mention me again

is it not this same governors that u are making case for that have been blaming GEJ for not saving? when they are the initiators

Rebelutionary:
More annoying is the fact that iweala was picking and choosing names as if like you said, the other govs were robots and didn't have a say!

You didn't save a whooping 52% n u r crying that I should have saved 26%- does that appeal to simple common sense?

I tire with the way this folks reason!

everybody should be blamed , thats my point
APC has been raising this issue since as if they are saints, we can now see that they are the initiators

Rebelutionary:
1. There is nothing like APC governors took the Fed Govt to court, that's a big fat lie! Not Amaechi, Fashola, Akpabio but the 36 state governors!
Read this http://saharareporters.com/2012/09/20/governors-going-court-fight-revenue-sharing

2. The governors had the legal right to the money which was Fashola's argument, that was why Yaradua quickly dispensed with all the legal wahala by giving them their share and GROWING OUR RESERVES BY SAVING! The highest our foreign reserves hit was $62bn and it was during Yaradua then the depletion in GEJ govt began that led to the controversy!

3. Did the Federal govt save her 53% stake in the ECA? Why crying over not saving 26% by the Governors when you didn't save yours? Lift the log out of your eyes before picking the speck in mine! Will you save your money with a person who isnt saving Nada? This is the elephant in the room question that we can't run away from!

Should we have saved? Of course we should have and we should, but truth be told nobody will save with a prodigal and yes the Federal Govt was damningly prodigal!

its APC that is crying that the GEJ govt didnt save and thats why they are not ruling us well, are they supposed to cry and blame GEJ when they are the initiators of the sharing. so i want u to agree they they are all guilty. so stop blaming PDP. APC didnt know that it will win the elections so they wanted PDP to be in the sorry situation that they are now, they didnt know that they were doing themselves by insisting on sharing. KARMA

(a)if u trust GEJ, and he ends up spending the money, then u can blame him
(b)u dont trust him, u insisted on sharing and it was shared, why still blame him? you should blame urself here

it is partial and unfair for u to blame him on both (a) and (b) above



and i also want u to exclude PETER OBI from the 36 governors that took the FG to court

GavelSlam:
And they also took that of the federal government abi?

do u now agree that ur APC is no saint and as corrupt as others, because they initiated the sharing and spending

so why is APC and its supporters blaming everybody and absolving itself

obailala:
The way politics erodes common sense can be amusing at times. Isn't it wonderful how out of 36 governors, of which up to 24 were even from PDP, it's just 3 APC governors that had interest in sharing the money and the remaining 33 governors were in support of saving. And these 3 'powerful' governors after influencing their remaining 33 colleagues, they even also influenced the NOI and GEJ's FG to also not save the FG's lion share (52%) of the money. Wonderful narrative !

they took the FG to court and won

even if its only one APC governor that supported the sharing and won his case in a court of law against the other 35, it should be obeyed in a democracy

hope u are a proponent of rule of law

Rebelutionary:
Answer this simple question or please don't mention me again!

Did the Federal Government save her bigger share of the ECA funds? #factsspeakforthemselves

so the FG should save theirs for the governors to come back to?

so if u share money with somebody that insists on sharing and even went to court,
u still keep ur own share for him to come back to again, incase he finishes spending his. because u be mumu

everybody spent theirs , everybody is guilty, so why are APC goons claiming saints and blaming the others when they are even the initiators of the spending.

una case tire me

Rebelutionary:
Wrong! Have you read the story of the prodigal son? That story would have been an epic disaster if the father decided to be prodigal like the Son!

Unfortunately, in our case the father was even more prodigal than the sons cos they had a bigger share of the pie! What did they do with theirs?

It is an Indictment on Jonathan!

What was the guarantee that the government would save the governors when our treasury was bleeding and remember we borrowed to pay salaries when Oil was at a high relative to now!

True leadership is in taking responsibility and this is a classic case of Adam(Jonathan) passing the buck to Eve(Iweala) and Eve passing the buck to the devil(Governors) when we know how the story unfolded!

what is prodigal in obeying a court ruling
the APC govs took GEJ to court and won

hope u are a proponent of rule of law

abc115:
This the dumbest write-up I have ever seen. If excess crude was shared...what percentages go to FG and States ?. For your information 53% goes to FG , while 27% goes to all the states combined. The question now to you and the author of the book, where is the FG share of 53%?. If I may ask you and Dr Ngozi again, going by her account , Are you now concluding that President Jonathan was a weak President who does not have mind of his own?

the APC govs insist they share it and the courts supported them.
so what do u want GEJ to do against a court ruling?
