Count down to the rerun elections in rivers state dis guy just keeps jumping from one media house to another making inciting statement... He should be called to order, election is not a do or die affair, its not war...

[/s]

What inciting statement Go sleep!

justified10:
I didn't state d solution cos u stated it in ur earlier post and I acknowledged it..

I just dey look EFCC, waiting for dem to win at least one case in court...let one big man go to jail for corruption.

It will happen. With Buhari in power many big men will end up in jail. But dont forget its not only efcc that has this responsibility, our judges are corrupt and also beneficiaries of the past regime.it is up to efcc to present its case, but its d judge that ultimately convicts.

No state Govt built airport maybe because airport was not their priority, many states built the ones that will favour them immensely. So, if amaechi thinks that rivers airport would favour the people of rivers then, the same way he is clamouring for it now, then he should have done it. A serious Govt can do it in 3yrs.

As for any state building any airport in naija, well, let me not go far, delta state is not far as it is within the same south south.

You just answered your own question, its all about priority. Amaechi is now in govt and in a good position to do more for his people. I dont understand what your grievance is. So the fact that he is constructing an airport is now a problem

You just sound ridiculous! Wike was Minister of education, how many schools did he build in rivers, since he loved rivers so much

justified10:
until ur last statement hapns...nothing will change..

forget Jonathan era, it is gone. if buhari leaves office, another president will bring anoda efcc chairman dat will suit his style...

d only thing d OBJ,GEJ and GMB Efcc have in common is d name "EFCC". so, dia is nothing continuous about d body.

You only stated the problem, but no solution!
The best way out is to make EFCC a constitutional body that is immune from direct politics. Then give them teeth, independent from presidential influence.

justified10:
EFCC has been in existence since d days of OBJ, dat is more Dan 12yrs ago..

they are behaving like learners cos of d way dia boss is being selected... d body is submissive to d presidency. dat is d issue

You are pretending to forget that they were basically redundant for jonathan's 6yrs. You learn by experience. When for 6yrs the President said stealing was not corruption, what do u expect efcc to do They can only get better with the job, little by little they are learning from their mistakes. We will eventually get to a point where efcc can function solely independently without any presidential backing

chigoizie7:
So, jonathan started hating amaechi from his inception as rivers governor?

Amaechi has been a governor for some 3yrs b4 Gej becam a president, @least, GEJ and amaechi where not having problems the moment GEJ became d president.

@least he had 1st tenure all to himself. He would have used it.

So, all other states, anambra, Enugu, akwa-ibom and some other states that were doing d federal projects(critical) so that their people will benefit immensely are all f00ls, right?

What you are saying is neither here nor there. Which state govt is able to build an airport within 3yrs of coming into power

Those states u mentioned were core Jonathan allies. But apart from that, amaechi also invested in thousands of projects of his own. You must not do federal govt project or build an airport to show u are working. Despite being the most hated governor by the entire pdp regime, he was able to build 400 schools, several roads and bridges etc

How many of the state govts u mentioned built airports

justified10:
how do u confirm someone a thief when u dont charge such person to court, when such person has not been found guilty?

I support buhari anti corruption fight, but it should be done d right way...

EFCC is not perfect. They have challenges and are learning on the job as well

AntiWailer:
As long as it is not Dansuki.

As for the sore election losers who criticizes everything Buhari above me.

Leave election behind you.

Thieves and corrupt people should not be encouraged irrespective of their political, religious or tribal affiliation.

When Obasanjo was there, they claimed he was jailing PDP members because they want to take over from him within his party.

Let's face it, PDP are bunch of thieves and armed robbers.

Check all those staining this Govt with their stinking past they have root in PDP. (The likes of Saraki and his 40 thieves)

You are soo right!

Mark my words, these same people hating Buhari will be the ones praising him the second he leaves Aso rock. It our mentality here in nigeria. The moment anybody leaves power, he becomes a hero. Even abacha is being celebrated today in some quarters. Nigerians have very short memory!

Wailers who are so much in support of corruption are gonna be soooo excited!

U re correct. But if amaechi had good intentions for the people of rivers, he would have known that the airport would have opened rivers more now, he would have known that as big as PH and as rich as they are, that airport would have brought more IGR and soo many goodies to the people of rivers, it is just a matter of common sense. PH is an economic hub of the entire oil rich south south, we know many investors that needs transportation are always in and out of PH. It would have been a win win for rivers.

@least, ask for refund later, u and I knew that if amaechi had good plans for rivers people, he would have done d airport, rivers is rich.


I knew u might ask me were state does FG projects.


Well,from niger bridge to odumodu junction is a very critical road in anambra state, without that road, the economic activities in onitsha would have been brought to zero, it would have reduced the IGR of the state very very well. It would have killed the economic/commercial city of anambra.

Best bet, state Govt took the bull by the horn to do those roads, not minding the cost and who was meant to do d roads, but focused on the long run benefits of the road, they are still pleading on FG to refund them, but @ d mean time, the road achieved it purpose @ a record time.

Another case is that of awka express road, from amawbia down to the boundary Btw anambra and enugu. The state Govt knew that if they leave that road in that shanty state, it will draw them back in achieving their goals in awka, so, they started working on it, it is 90% complete, it gave access in and out of awka, it gave investors more hope in awka, today awka is an investment hub in SE, awka is the fastest developing area in soth east. Why? Because they had vission, they had plans and they worked towards achieving their dream @ record time.


The good news is, when the FG decides to award that very osha Enugu express from head bridge to Enugu, the amount meant for the already worked areas will be brought out and remitted back to state coffers,

It will be a win win.


If the FG refused, no problems, @least their aims of developing and opening the cities up for investment was achieved thus raising their IGR and reducing the suffering of the masses.


So, if amaechi tot that airport was very important to the economy of the people of rivers, he would have done it with state money and then ask for refund. Rivers had enough money to do it as price of oil was good, plus d derivation, excess crude account he clamoured for its depletion leading to split of Nigeira governor forum.[/quote][/s]


Your comment is ridiculous and this is the problem with nigerians, we have very very short memory. You have quickly forgotten that as governor amaechi had to fight tooth and nail for rivers state statutory allocation to be released. So how in heaven's name do u expect he will ever be paid for embarking on a federal govt project which they didnt send him.

Thats not how govt works. Read your constitution, it is illegal and unconstitutional for state to assume federal powers/projects without prior express consent. And even if the consent is given, the money wld never have been released because of the hatred jonathan had for amaechi. Pls think before you type.

We the good people of rivers state know were our vote will
go! From obigbo town to afam to komkom, from akpo
kingdom to rumueme to iriebe, from chokochoko to elele to
isiokpo, from omoku to ogba, from ndele kingdom to
ogbakiri, from buguma to degema to kuku, from bori to
eleme, from bonny to finima, from opobo town to nkoro....
RIVERS IS FOR PDP!! PDP is RIVERS!!!!!!!!!!

Dont be shallow-minded. Development does not know party. The airport being built is not only for apc members, so I dont understand why u feel threatened by progressive development that will benefit all!

Btw those politicians u are campaigning for dont give a hoot about u!

mickey45:
The low oil price was maintained by S.Arabia et. al in order to keep market share and to drive "mee-too" crude oil producers out of the market.

Business agreements are seldom made entirely on goodwill.
When last did you buy a product just entirely because you liked the producer?

This is not discounting the yields from his travels (should this be a key point on his itinerary)

Sorry whats ur point exactly

Let the goats keep wailing...Nigeria is moving forward!

God bless PMB!

But those foolish wailers said Bubu's trips was a waste. So I suppose China suddenly woke up and chose to import oil from nigeria out of the many country lobbying for sale, probably cos they love us sooo much

Mtschew

OP u just quote Agbakoba out of context. If you read what he said, he was actually showing confidence in this administration. Your heading is very misleading!

Lolz...they should share the money and give you or what my dear that regime is long gone. No more free money!

Some people's idea of change is that its now their turn to "chop". Well you need a mind reset. Those monies recovered are not for sharing. First of all, the cases are still in court, so without judgement the monies cant be touched. But even apart from that, the monies will be applied to the initial reason they were assigned:i.e building infrastructure. So if you are still hoping for free money, now is the time to relocate to cameroun!

Why do people only face federal govt for everything? You have councillors, LGA chairmen, governors, members of house of assembly etc, but you only have energy to rant for federal govt. You left the person you can easily reach to complain about the one thats miles away.

This will not change till we are able to hold our leaders accountable. Its not about N5000 free money for youths, its about responsibility and accountability. Start with your LGA thats receiving moneys on your behalf every month!

Government should stop trumping up charges against Tompolo and negotiate.

Ridiculous! Govt doesnt negotiate with touts or terrorists. He shld keep running, we shall see how long he can live in hiding!

raker300:
so smart that she made nigeria the largest economy in Africa.

So smart she financed entrepreneurship programs like youwin that distributed wealth

Increase nysc to 19k

Increase minimum wage to 18k

Increased interest rates

@least she isn't stealing 50# from my account

[/s]

TRASH!

She did not of that! Our economy was simply rebased to make us the giant economy. Am guessing you know the meaning of rebase
Youwin was nothing but a scam to loot funds, increment in minimum wage is a product of labour agitation and increment in nysc follows suit. This has nothing to do with the finance minister! And increased interest rate is a minus, not a plus.....jeez! hope u went to school

dtruth3:
That's good! Now the world has started acknowledging what Kanu has been saying.

The same Kanu that hates nigeria and wants the country to burn

I think we really have goats for youths here. Some morons are already supporting a foreigner insulting your country.
The person thats abusing you, is his country perfect Isnt it the same america where kids open gunfire on their classmates in school? Isnt it the same america where slavery, poverty and crime reign supreme?? People should stop demeaning their country just because a racist, bigot and evil capitalist thinks you are not good enough!

neolboy:
Evidence that she plunged the country into shit or u keep mute

Use your brain. Was she not the finance minister? So where did all our forex during the time of oil boom go If u dont know what to say, shut up!

chocolateme:
Smart woman, smarter than certificate and then smarter than all the APC members in Nigeria put together.

Smart indeed. So smart she plunged us into the shit we are now! Look at the dasuki mess she created, where did all our oil earnings go Smart my foot!

Gorodomu:
And d use of abusive words shows u went to school?How ignorant can u be?Do u think exchange rate is controlled by government pronouncement?Please its basic economics,govt. can only peg d rate if it can provide a reasonable amount of fx to meet demand.Ignorance is d reason pple like u fail to decern simple inference.How does PMB intend to get d fx to keep CBN rate at 197 in d face of dwindling income?D simple answer is what his economic advisers are not telling him,d CBN rate has virtually no effect on real rate as business owners including banks continue to use black market rate for most transactions.There is a time to dip ur tail in btw ur legs and run,I'm quite sure part of my funds is used to pay you for e-ratting,but like I always tell pple elections are over and we've won.We must not let Nigerians down.

Abeg shut up. You are saying two different things are the same time. You say govt cant fix exchange rate in one breath, then u also agree govt is fixing it at 197. If you dont knw what to say, pls be quiet!

Gorodomu:
Seems ure d one with deficient intellect,why on earth will a govt. accept that anything is beyond its control?
If PMB cannot control d exchange rate why then is he pegging it?
D exchange rate is a fundamental part of d economy,govt. policies seek to stabilize,increase or decrease it depending on d motive.
If PMB's policy cannot control d exchange rate is it Iya Basira's policy dat will increase d value of d naira?
I supported PMB's campaign and even spent my personal money to ensure he wins,but lets call a spade a spade.

Na wa o. When they said you shld go to school, u refused. Have u been sleeping since or living under a cave
Nigerian govt is actively in control of the exchange rate. Thats why CBN keeps selling at 197 eventhough blackmarket is 312. Were u asleep when Buhari refused to devalue

And btw stop lieing about spending your funds for this govt, cos your comments shows your criticisms arent constructive in the slightest. You are just a regular wailer trying to disguise as a supporter!

And some goats even rushed to comment without reading...Thisday newspaper is really useless. So because efcc has nabbed bafarawa and obaigbena, they decided to constitute nuisance spreading falsehoods and lies.

Any sane person that reads the excerpts knows Lai Mohammed NEVER such such trash..so wailing goats shld go jump in the lagoon!

Ben Bruce should shut up and face his work already! Nigeria is still operating on some outdated 18th century laws, but he is to busy chasing shadows and updating twitter...useless ineffectual buffoon!

Nicepoker:
if he is not suitable for the acting president position. Then why is he on as the senate president.

Are u just pretending to be oblivious to the circumstances of the senate president Or are u not a nigerian?

Nicepoker:
they should learn to keep their house in order. The division among them is shocking.

Is it only them? Division cuts across all political parties and everyone is managing it in their own way.

You cant expect someone who is facing corruption charges to now be given the reins as acting president of the country. Its obvious how that will end

Aren't you all thieves in the APC? Why single out Saraki? Is boooooohari or osunbade** any better? Tell them to name this individual

U see that think in your skull? Its use for thinking. Apply it before you blab or STFU!
Rubbish

OP your agenda is clear. But it seems you quote the emir out of context!

Hope u are not a wailer tho....

Nicepoker:
I know u will derail. Deal with the truth bro.

Actually u are the one who shld deal with the truth. U may not like apc but face facts: saraki didnt become senate president by approval of apc. Infact that is the genesis of his problems.
