FORMER CPC vice presidential candidate and
founder of Latter Rain Assembly, Pastor
Tunde Bakare has declared that he earnestly
yearns for a better Nigeria where good
governace, equal distribution of the nation’s
resources amongst others for all citizens.
The former running mate of Gen. Muhammadu
Buhari (rtd) made this remarks while
ministering during the inauguration and
commissioning of Grace and Glory Chapel in
Ikeja, Lagos, while giving reasons why he
rejected a car gift for his 60th birthday.
Pastor Bakare said he was not interested in
becoming a local champion in a city of the
blind, recalling that, some persons brought
him a 2015 model of Rolls Royce during his
60th birthday which, he said, he out rightly
rejected, adding that he was not in need of
such exotic car while majority of Nigerians
are wallowing in poverty.
“I want to see good governance. I want to
see discipline. I want to see equitable
distribution of resources. I want to see the
poor being educated. I want to see a nation
that works,” Bakare said.
Continuing, he said: “I don’t want to be a
local champion in a city of the blind. I am not
in need of a 2015 model of Rolls-Royce
which was presented to me as a gift.
“I was sitting at home one day and they
brought in a brand new 2015 Rolls-Royce
into my house. My 60th birthday was coming.
I looked at it, kai! This is awkward. When you
open your car, your door goes this way, its
own door goes that way. It clears the way
so that there is nothing blocking your way.
“I saw a button. They said: it is an umbrella
sir. It is on every door in case it is raining,
you just push it and the umbrella comes out. I
said: Na wa o. Then I said: Oya, leave this
place.
“Where is the road that I will ride it upon?
My heart is not in things like this. I asked
my son to take a photograph of the brand
new car as a proof,” the controversial
pastor noted.
Bakare also averred that poverty has made
most Nigerians to believe that anybody
without a jet has not arrived, adding that
majority of those who bought jets can no
longer maintain such jets and are busy
leasing them out.

Na naija politifcians we talking about biko. How else would they provide avenues of "chop" for the boys? Expect other bogus & irrelevant ID issueing agencies if the status quo is maintained (heaven forbid)....

Too late bros. We just cant trust you in that office no more. You've expended all the goodwill entrusted in you. Begin pack your luggage biko......

Walahi if it comes down to letting one up for another, I dont giv a flying bleep about a Lagos APC. Though i doubt if Tinubu would allow that happen, he'l never let go come hell or high water. Discerning minds kno what d hell im talkin about....
It is Buhari abeg xoxo

Buhari ni joor....

I think the question really should be why should we depend on a rechargeable device we dont hav to carry around in the first place before we can use it if they hav any shame?.... Oh, whers even the power to recharge their RECHARGEABLE vacuum cleaner? .... NONSENSE!

Freelancer00:
why waste money on useless expensive things when a broom is multipurpose

Wayo wayo gofamenti....

Sai Buhari

No one needs any introduction to the fact that corruption has decimated our national & individual lives. One can easily surmise that a Buhari Govt. will most certainly like to unearth most of the ills that have defiantly refused us a right to good life and appreciable standard of living. Thats why these bandits ruling us are getting so ever desperate as we countdown to stop the man from ascending. They'll do whatever not to get their YANSHES exposed. These are a bit of what we can surely expect of him once he's in control....

*He certainly will expose the rot & corruption that has totally eclipsed the NNPC/ oil sector...
*Investigate & expose the scam of the TAM of the country's refineries over the years...
*Cut down on the atrocious & over-bloated costs of running government, and did someone say what about the flying toys for the Presidency...
*...oh, and POWER! Like one PDP cabinet member once said that witches are wizards are the ones militating against our power situation, he will most certainly want to know the voodoo, witches & vampires that have refused to let the power sector function...
*Malfeasance in the Civil service

You may add yours...

Hmmmm, now I kno. The mother of this baby is exactly who Bishop Oyedepo was referring to when he talked about opening the gates of hell.....

Chai! Military kua? Ah my broda, if you kno what is good for us you wont wish. Which of the khaki men do you hav in mind? I hope not the same set of Generals that hav been feastin on our security budget a la fight on BH. Our military, just like their civilian politicians hav lost their moral marbles.....

BoboYekini:
@post, I think that now when even foreigners cringe at the degree of corruption, poverty and hopelessness that pervades Nigeria, I think it is time for the military to take over.

Oyinbo dude gives tacit credence to the decade long argument IBB is chief progenitor of institutional corruption in the land. What a sad indictment....

GMB sir....

PHCN or whatever the hell they are called hav done it again. Bunch of corrupt incompetent buffoons!


The country is currently losing 2,042.2
megawatts of electricity due to gas supply
shortage and poor water management.
The 411 G2 and G4 units of the Shiroro
hydro power plant are currently losing
300MW, while the loss of 1,742.2MW is
attributed to gas supply shortage at various
legacy gas-fired power plants, including the
National Integrated Power Project plants.
The information on the loss was contained in
the daily broadcast of the Transmission
Company of Nigeria obtained by our
correspondent on Tuesday.
The AES barges 202-205 and 207-211 in
Lagos are currently losing 288MW due to
gas-related problems, while the Geregu NIPP
GT 21 and 23 units have lost 290MW.
According to the TCN, the Rivers IPP GT1 is
losing 160MW, while the Ihovbor GT2 has a
deficit of 112.5MW.
The Omotosho NIPP GT1 and 4, and Sapele
ST2 units are said to be losing 240MW and
70MW, respectively.
The Egbin ST1 and 3 units have capacity to
generate 660MW, but are currently doing
467MW; meaning a loss of 193MW.
The Omotosho Gas GTI, 3, 5-8 units have a
combined capacity of 228MW, but are doing
146.2MW; thus recording a loss of 81.8MW.
Also, the Olorunsogo Gas GT1-4, 7 and 8
units, with capacity for 228MW, are
generating just 161.1MW and losing 66.9MW
due to gas shortage.
Peak generation for the country as of
Tuesday was put at 3,865.4MW, while
3,331.5MW was the figure for off-peak
generation.
The Federal Government had shifted its
earlier target of generating 6,000MW of
electricity before the end of 2014 to this
year.
The Minister of Power, Prof. Chinedu Nebo,
had said, “We have an outlook for 2015 to
2017. People are saying you people said you
will do 6,000MW, yes! We have the capacity
standing, we now have the gas standing and
we are going to do that shortly within this
year. But beyond that; by 2016, we expect
to get up to 10,000MW; and by 2017, to get
12,500MW.”
The mid-January statistics obtained from
the ministry showed that peak generation on
Wednesday was 4,405.6MW; energy
generation, 4,000.63MW; and the energy
sent out was 3,914.60MW. Peak demand
was, however, put at 12,800MW.
On gas pipelines vandalism, Nebo also said
the country lost an average of 1,000MW in
2014 as a result of the activities of
vandals.

In conclusion, I am not an apostle for recycling old politicians but I
am averse to people like Ayo Fayose pushing twisted and one-sided
history in our faces. I just want to show that all over the world senior citizens get elected and most of them see their tenure through.

Only Tôn Đức Thắng of Vietnam died in office. You can research this fact. Ironically none of dead presidents on Fayose’s statistics in the Punch was up to 70 as at the time of their death. This shows how confused this Ekiti governor is.

Please let us contribute to knowledge, the fact that some elements are
privileged to be in seat of power doesn’t mean we cannot engage intelligently. People like Ayo Fayose should be told that the white didn’t hide things in books for black people like us. Let the game continue, we will serve them while it is hot.

*P.S,...ignore the despots amongst them. Emphasis on the good guys...

10 to 8. Buhari surrounded by lesser number of thieves & psychos, so Buhari still better. Lol

I shudder at the thought of a Jonathan re-election. Straight back to as high as can be imagined.

Excerpts from main commenter.....


Latest from Bauchi.. Galore from PDP Presidential "Complain" Rally in Bauchi state:
FCT Minister Bala Muhammed was
the funniest of them all.
He shouted 'Nigeria'!!
The crowd replied, Sai Buhari!!!!
He repeated "NIGERIA," 3 times.
And the crowd replied:
SAI BUHARI!
SAI BUHARI! !
SAI BUHARI! !!!
Sen Bala Mohammed then told the crowd in Hausa, 'Nigeria sai Gudluck zaku ce' (Meaning when I say Nigeria, your response should
be Goodluck."
He then shouted, NIGERIA!!!!
And the crowd roared,
SAI BUHARI!".


*I nor fit laff abeg cos lwkmd already.....

But this Abba Kyari guy go be one strong man o, prolly another ebora....hes been busting robbers arses since gej thinkin of how to prepare his thesis. Welldone to him.

Jonathan has lost it. Hes got nothing more to offer Nigeria. Actually he never had jack to offer Nigeria. The classic case of the accidental president. Good riddance on May 29th.....

Love ur comment, funny die lol

veave:
every tom dick and harry will ask for money.
even people who have never talked to you will email a list of things you should send to them.
relatives you never knew exist will tell you how they are entitled to some ridiculous amount of dollars from you monthly. why, "na dem train your papa for secondary school"
your immediate family nko? they will go and collect gbese to pose all in your name... "my broad dey yankee, e go soon send me dollars now now. no worry I go pay"






which way naija?

In the last couple of weeks or thereabout, the entire nation & social media has been frenzied with the Buhari cert. saga. I for one think its actually a good thing all this came
up, aside the needless distractions it has
created & diverted from the
real issues of electoral importance in the very short time we have to
the run-up to elections. Buharists may snort
at the fuss all this has generated but it
speaks volumes that our threshold for the
acceptance of crass impunity & unbriddled
disrecpect for rule of law that has held sway for far too long is being
significantly lowered, albeit the docile &
taciturn nature of Nigerians to the siddon-look syndrome. Nigerians are gradually
crawling out of OUR shells & facing up to
the so called powers that be & slowly but
surely they'l gradually start coming to terms with the fact
that the citizenry are becoming brazenly enlightened, ask questions when need arises & wont allow to be taken for
granted anymore.....
*Im voting GMB btw, thats if they finally decide to give me my PVC....

Be like say you never hear. Ebora Owu don
leak again o, say bros Jona nor finish phd,
say na pdp cover im yansh

KingTom:
They are absolutely right, I for one doubt the fact that the Otueke man has a Bsc not to talk of PhD, GEJ show us your students, thesis, Certificate! However, Knowing the President, he will send his goons Doyin Bastard Okupe and Reno Omokirikiri to say His thesis is not subject to public view.
Sai Buhari

Be like say op never hear. Ebora Owu don leak again o, say bros Jona nor finish phd, say na pdp cover im yansh. Gbam!

Cheers bru, feelings mutual......

dvee2:
Honestly it's very easy to spot an intelligent mind, no much noise, just disect the facts unbiasely and make decisions. I like your style
