jaxxy:
it's funny they only mentioned his name which i learnt is even a fake name in their sensational news and no bandits names where mentioned.

I don't know what this country is turning into.

Bikonu what is his real name, you must have some intel not known to the public?

Abi are you the Yellow the Babylonians said escaped from the Toyota hilux truck enroute to Kano State?

UNDFTD:
Nigerian security agencies are at it again. They can't get their lies and propaganda straight...they keep changing their stories. They will have to keep explaining until they get tired because no reasonable person believes their cockamamie stories.

True talk, but they believe that President Buhari is from Sudan, because Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, Chinaza’s brother in law said so abi?

Bobloco:
Former Deputy National Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, Chief Bode George, on Monday, warned that the recent waves of kidnappings and insecurity were pushing Nigerians close to the precipice. He warned that Nigerians were asking what’s going on, and that any little push can lead to disintegration.

George, in a statement, tasked the President Bola Tinubu-led administration to tackle the escalating insecurity. He insisted that the country must be restructured.


Also, Bode George noted that the government of the day had failed Nigerians. He warned that insecurity will make it impossible to attract the much-needed international economic investment.

Questions
The PDP chieftain said: “In the wake of the alarming escalation of insecurity and the recent waves of kidnappings terrorising Nigerians, it has become imperative for us to address the critical questions Nigerians are asking.”

Bode George continued: “The pertinent question Nigerians are asking today is: What exactly is going on in our country?

“Nigerians are looking to the government to instill security amidst the fear and atrocious crimes being committed in Nigeria, which is destroying the security and stability of our nation, making Nigeria very volatile and a threat to the personal safety of Nigerians.

“The sudden increase and high prevalence rate of innocent lives lost, suffered by Nigerian communities is not only tragic but has made it almost impossible to attract the much needed international economic investment that can only prevail in a politically stable environment.

“Nigerians are perpetually engulfed with fear and so they are asking what is happening to the government in power.

“Why are they refusing to put the national security of this nation front and centre of their political agenda? The government of the day has failed Nigerians once again.


“With the recent killing of more than 200 people in Plateau State during the Christmas season, in addition to the rampant abduction of citizens every day, Nigerians are now forced to look for tens of millions of naira in cash to pay off ransoms.

“I am also asking the same critical question: Whither Nigeria?

“The fundamental duty of government, anywhere in the world, is the protection of lives and properties of its citizens.

“It also must put adequate well-coordinated security plans that prioritise national security and ensure an atmosphere; peaceful and conducive for its citizens.

“Pitiably, this is not the case in our country today. On the roads, on the farms, in the market, even in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), the seat of government, it seems terrorists and kidnappers have now taken the battle to the city of power.


“What is the government doing to eliminate this plague of insecurity in the land? How do we develop the economy and catapult economic growth when Nigerians and foreigners/investors have become endangered species in the hands of killers?

“The lack of urgency to promptly tackle banditry, terrorism, kidnapping and insecurity in the land gives me grave concern, anxiety and distress.

“This hydra-headed problem is not being tackled by the government. It has now become a crime for Nigerians to move from one place to the other. How long will Nigerians endure this?

“Kidnapping for ransom is already creating fear all over the country. Leaders in the country must not just bombard Nigerians with the semantics of ‘We are on top of the situation’.

“Those in authority must show leadership qualities, and as a popular saying goes; The only thing necessary for evil to triumph in Nigeria is that good citizens watch silently and do nothing.


“Elders in the country must stand up and advise the government appropriately on actions that will ensue peace and stability in the land.

“Since the Supreme Court has ruled in favour of President Bola Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the winner of the February 25, 2023 election, it is now time for real governance, and Nigerians are earnestly yearning for this.

‘Close to precipice’
“Nigeria is close to the precipice and any little push can lead to a total disintegration. That is why the Bola Tinubu administration should put on its armour and tackle this menace in society now.

“From Sokoto to Oyo, Rivers to Niger, Imo to Taraba; high rate of unemployment, chronic hunger and malnutrition are so prevalent in the land.

“According to a popular saying, an idle hand is the devil’s workshop. Since people must eat, they will resort to anything that will put food on their tables, even if it is undesirable and despicable.”


On the need for the Federal Government to tackle the growing number of unemployed youths in the country, George said: “So, what is the government doing to engage this growing army of unemployed youths in the country?

“Naira is now about N1,300 to a dollar. A bag of rice is more than N60,000. The cost of living is just going up and the quality of life is going down.

“It appears the government is helpless and unprepared. Government must stretch out its hands to foster partnerships with all relevant stakeholders and agencies, to ensure immediate relief for those most vulnerable in our society.

“I said it before and I am going to repeat it for posterity. We must restructure this country and the time is now. If we are really practicing democracy the way it should be, Abuja should not breathe down the necks of all the 36 states.

“We must restructure immediately.


“The Federal Government must also devolve power to states to achieve more effective governance and management of each state’s resources. Governors are closer to the people. They know what their people need.

“Apart from monetary policy, customs, defence, foreign affairs and a few others, governors should handle the rest critical matters on the Exclusive List in the Constitution.

“For example, people in Alimosho, the most populous local government in Nigeria, cannot go to Abuja for their basic needs. The governor is there in Alausa, Ikeja to handle such things.

“Development should be bottom-up, not the other way round. That is why if California, a state in the United States (U.S.), were a sovereign nation, it would rank in terms of nominal Gross Domestic Product (GDP) as the world’s fifth largest economy behind Japan and ahead of India.

“In fact, the state of California has a larger GDP than that of all African countries.


“Its Silicon Valley is home to some of the world’s most valuable technology companies, such as Apple, Alphabet and Nvidia,” Bode George noted

Melagros:
I thought you left nairaland when mutfwang was declared by supreme court

I thought you left Nairaland when Obi’s petition was tossed out, & Tinubu was declared President by The Supreme Court?

Xscape1993:
Good move. The evil party call APC has succeeded in turning our judiciary into a political party.

The Supreme Court of Nigeria lacks jurisdiction in the matter.

Nonexisting1:
Go to school, you say na zoneB work better for you. Now ordinary sentence, you can not read and understand. Odi egwu.

Most important thing is that you got the message loud & clear.

Bola Tinubu is only a better refined reflection of yourself, and everything you wish to be.

Malroux:
My attention is expensive. I don't banter with any Dick and Harry.

Indeed, how expensive can a poor man’s attention be.

Let me guess $5, equivalent to 6,800 Naira or slightly less?

Nonexisting1:
Some times, it's best not to give certain advice before you give the one you're not morally eligible to give. This is just like a thief advising against thieving.

A thief that was not convicted by any court of competent jurisdiction?

Just an imagination of a reflection of how you view yourself?

Gondonu:
Says a bullion vans grab and snatch man.........

No food for lazy man in the jungle, nothing is given, it is survival of The fittest.

Nobody dashed Bola Tinubu President of The Federal Republic of Nigeria, even you laughed at him when he declared his intention to run for the hot seat.

Malroux:
Sharap. Tinubu is a criminal.

He is only a reflection of you as a Nigerian.

Just imagine you tell your friend from Ghana that your president is a criminal, but you a hungry citizen of the republic is not one, do you think he will believe you, and trust you with his money?

benjaminlawson:
I pity this country, how would a person in a position make things happen, will tell Nigerians that they lack equipment to track criminals, but the same man can budget 15 billions naira to build official residence for VP who is not even homeless in abuja. But cannot budget security equipment to tackle insecurity. God will judge all these rulers who are so selfish and less concern about the plight of ordinary Nigerians on the street.

The irony is that you as a Nigerian is not any different from the so called Rulers you are purported wailing about.

lexy2014:
.who will restructure it and how will it be restructured?

You dey mind miceroms that is just balabuing nonsense?

babzlim:
this is what you get when a country is running on one party system, anything the president wants is a Goal even if he wants his son as whatsoever is a goal, both senate and speaker is same party with the president.

no opposition, the only opposition they have has sold there soul to the devil 👿, I petty the future of this great nation.

another four years from now they will turn you on eachother again and you will foolishly and hopelessly fall for the scam but when the bomb blast happened there was nothing like igbo blood or yoruba blood when it comes to blood donations abi.

Peter Obi & Obidients have sold their souls to Lucifer in accordance with your statement?

stagger:
Antai was a very rugged guy in UNIPORT those days as SUG Secretary General

Interesting., no be today oguy has been playing politics.

No wonder he is @ the top today.

freshkpomo:
The thing tire me o, they are now behaving like APC themselves. God bless Jonathan for been transparent and giving power up peacefully, but God will still punish him for been a weakling to allow this demonic APC in
[/color]

What kind of things are these Obidients? Only you bless with your mouth, only use that same mouth to curse the same person?

Sapiosexuality:
The results were made public on live broadcast wouldn't it also be fair to debate the results on live broadcast? What exactly couple be wrong with a live broadcast of the latter if both events are about the elections?

Be careful what you wish for, please careful not to damage your tv o, once the court has spoken conclusively.

Alexandersantos:
Why are they scared if they aren't hiding something

The Court will hear what it wants to hear either openly or in clandestine, it makes no difference to the outcome, we know all you are looking for is more reason to wail & gnash.

gimakon2:
If really they have nothing to hide, they should show everything.
corrupt lots.

Let them keep deceiving themselves, INEC has already told them their fate, Obi thank you for betraying your master Abubakar Atiku, the rest we know is history.

slivertongue:
I understand APC's stand but I don't understand that of INEC

Whether live broadcast on Al Jazeera or delayed broadcast on AIT, Obi & Atiku no get case, just showboating to save face.

Dexpro:
It would be in the best interest of Nigerians if proceedings is televised.

First will you have electricity to watch the proceedings, secondly you no get work, than to be waking watching court tv, which the conclusive outcome is already known to logical imagination?

Hotwest:
I think sometime ago a court case concerning the nation dealings which was called Oputa panel was streamed live right?!

I hate politics most especially this APC and how they are riding on Nigerians.

We shouldn't over respect these old men before they destroy our future. I'm still wondering how a single sick old man can be controlling millions of Nigerians because he have alot of money to throw around. Are we that poor and cowards?! Make fight no break one day o

Lazy old Almijiri, you are waiting for Bola Tinubu to come & better your life amongst your 200 million fellow Nigerians?

Keep waiting, because your local government chairman & Governor that you voted for, were not elected to serve you lazy Incoherent Obidient?

Only Bola Ahmed Tinubu working from Abuja was elected to make life pleasant for an ungrateful citizen of the Federal Republic of Nigeria like yourself?

Grab a bottle of Coca Cola & 3 galas as you wait for Federal assistance/aid.

Enemyofpeace:
With the huge amount of money spent on the last Presidential election and the preparations being put in place for the swearing-in of the President select or elect(whatever you wish to call it), i don't see anything good coming out from the Presidential election tribunal. It is as if, it is just a formality and a jamboree. I might be wrong, but that is the way I see it and it is just my opinion. I might be wrong sha, what do you think?

Waste of time, Peter Obi just trying to save face, after helping Tinubu to defeat his Oga & former party Abubakar Atiku & The Pdp in winning the presidential election.

Unrepentant Despicable Judas, that was deceived, used & dumped. Shameless Thing, let his disciples, the likes of Onuman, princeofLagos, racoon come & defend this serpent of a politician.

Danisaint112:
In no distant time we would know wether they are IPOB or arm robbers like CORNfused people claimed.

FG trying everything possible to keep Nnamdi Kanu in detention and make the Biafran flag look like a terrorist flag globally. But the west are wiser than them.

Guilty conscience, As we are aware, from the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.

Continue giving Nigeria a negative image, both home & abroad.

Ofunaofu:
Granting waiver to candidates for election by political parties is not new

Are you sure you are inline with political parties politics

Microwave waiver candidate indeed, less than 1 week, fleeing pdp, to joining the Laborious parry, to ineligible presidential candidate of same, honestly speaking, isn’t that a political despicable Desperado 419er to any logical thinker?

Mind you, definitely not imagining or referring to you Obidients in any form or manner, as logical minded creatures, far & as opposite from possible.

babdap:
Confusion everywhere you go.

Thank You Judas Peter Gringory Obi, you’ve gone to eat the goat meat egusi soup prepared for Eze Nwokem?

Obinwenite:
Lol, una never wan get sense. You think he is your regular politician. Keep wasting your time. No be only negotiate. You think you are dealing with Atiku or kwankwaso…..

How can, why insult the Turaki of Adamawa like that?

We are dealing with his incoherent boy.

Obinwenite:
Lol, una never wan get sense. You think he is your regular politician. Keep wasting your time. No be only negotiate. You think you are dealing with Atiku or kwankwaso…..

Waiver microwave Aspirant, joined the party on Thursday, presidential candidate on Tuesday? Labor parry way no even field legitimate presidential candidate.
