I hope the sultan see this and mobilize against tambuwal in the next election. Even though I'm a Christian who doesn't support killing of innocent people, Tambuwal should be careful of his utterances

U don't have shame!!
Is this what we voted for in 2015

This man is even making more sense than the president period!!

alignacademy:
Aren't people presumed innocent until PROVEN guilty?

Getting worked up over sensational headlines isn't really helpful

And for the aspiring #NotTooYoungToRun leaders, if you had to respond to every accusation thrown at you- "just to prove my innocence"- you'll hardly have enough time to actually work.

Cheers

Yeye de smell!!
Common nysc cert!

.

This is where life matters!!
A nation literally stood still and even lost a rescuer to see them smile again.

Here 52 villages a ransacked for 7hrs, women raped, children killed and even the unborn not spared. The culprits stay back to grab lands n occupy the abandoned houses.

Our govt is telling stories n saying media is making too much noise about it, after all twice as much were butchered in Zamfara, no pim was heard.
When there's election or to protect oil installations, they mobilize all milliary/police might as we see in ekiti today.
What a people!
What a nation!!!

My people!!

Baawaa:
Majority of you will not return in 2019

Just restructure the country abeg

Thomas Schaefer, the Chairman and Managing Director of Volkswagen, says the company is ready to produce two million made-in-Nigeria cars as soon as President Muhammadu Buhari gives assent to the automotive industry bill.

Schaefer made the statement in Abuja during an interview with newsmen as he led a delegation to discuss developing the African automotive industry by adopting an African approach.

“The market at the moment in Nigeria is not big due to various reasons, total number of cars built in Nigeria is about 10,000 cars which is small.

”Nigeria is good for, at least, 600,000 to 700,000 cars per annum.

”I personally believe that Nigeria is good for 2,000,000 cars per year; with good government policies and collaboration with the industry, this can be achieved, ” he said.

Schaefer said that used cars imported into the country were preventing any kind of industrialisation.

He said that Volkswagen would invest more than 100 million dollars in the first stage of its development project in Nigeria and provide more jobs.

According to him, Nigeria has been recognised as an important segment of the African automotive sector.

“We are also pushing for the passage into law of Nigeria’s automotive policy capable of advancing the growth of Africa’s automotive sector.’’

Schaefer advised the government not to allow Nigeria to become a dumping ground for used cars even if the vehicles are cheap.

Schaefer said that Volkswagen would ensure that 70 per cent of the raw materials used in its production were sourced locally.

”You need to localise the raw materials otherwise there will be no cost advantage.

”If you bring in all the materials, the logistics cost will kill the project.

“Nigeria has a lot of raw materials that can be used, ” Schaefer said.

Also, Mr Martyn Davies, Automotive Industry leader in Africa, said that the law would provide significant policy for foreign investors to help formalise operations in Nigeria.

Davies called for an effective management system for the country to boost the value chain.

”A country like Nigeria has a very hard decision to make because it is either the country continues to import second and third hand cheap substandard vehicles which is cheap and consumer-friendly or the country wants to create jobs,” he said.

The new National Automotive Industry Development Plan, also known as the Automotive Policy, was introduced in October 2013 to revive the ailing Nigerian auto industry.

The objective of the automotive policy is to restore assembly and develop local content, thus creating employment, acquiring technology and reducing pressure on the country’s balance of payment.

The bill has been passed by the National Assembly waiting for the president’s assent.

shut up you don't even knw politics..if you are in his shoe you will do same..

Don't mind the political olodo!!
He doesn't see the contesting of a 75yr old sick man for president of a fragile n developing country like Nigeria as lust for power.
Yeye leaders n their foolish followers!!

Imagine this pics taken at the shrine of a president (of a country far greater than Nigeria). Looking so young, strong, healthy and capable!!

etebefia:
All for personal gain, PDP or APC still the same criminals, religious bigots, incompetent fools, jihadists. All of you should go and rest let innovative ideas take over.

Pls what is Buhari contesting for??
Your personal gain??

beethoven:
This is where I d say the coach was stupid. He should have played someone else instead of Mikel. Of all the players on the pitch that day, Mikel was the least motivated to continue playing in the world cup in Russia. Even if we had advanced, he would have flown back to Naija to sort out things.

While I dont blame him, he played most of his passes backwards. He could not motivate the team to hangon till the end. And to the people that kidnapped his dad, all doors to their success in life will be shut! unless they repent.

Oga read before commenting naaa!!!

Yeye people n country!
The Gov will just keep running on diesel Gen until the expiration of his tenure

alexistaiwo:
You say
This calls for a celebration

Which kin yeye t-shirt be this naaa

Spot on !!

Abeg between Dalung n Pinnick who suppose step down!!

kestolove95:
Mumu 4yrs, Buhari never participated in the coup, his was brought from maiduguri to take ova, it was abacha, babangida, vatsa and co...dat did d coup, study ur history

whaat

I'm waiting for Tabarez to com say how we stopped CR7 also naaa

TonyeBarcanista:
Has Ambo paid June salary or he's waiting for allocation?

Pls one palpable principal of life is u shouldn't compare unnecessary with others , rather compare urself with ur limits.

Udom is highest earning gov in oil derivations, i expect more from him period.
If he's trying, he's damm to far from his limits. Let him do more!!

Ambo is trying , still I can't just start praising him, because he's still far from his limits n can do better. He's building lots of capital projects, but can't even tell lagosians how much is the costs ( esp his flyovers)
So im expecting more from Ambo.

We don't need govs to pay state salaries. With prudent n shrewd management, even computers can do that

Pavarottii:
Wat are u saying ? He has the highest derivation that has not been allocated to him yet he paid. Federal government, Lagos state and no other state has paid June salaries. In case u don't know.

He has been collecting that derivation since 3yrs , what has he been doing with them.
I expect u to be asking how much has he been collecting n how much is d Bal after meaningful deductions for sensible projects. Hence if there Bal should he pocket the rest?
U don't even know if he borrowed from Banks to pay yet already praising him.
All I'm saying is that we expect so little from our leaders n should be more committed to asking critical questions as how they run our states

Some of you here are jubilating n praising a gov for paying salary.
All I can say to u is sorry!!
Was that y u elected the gov??
U think u need a gov to pay salaries abi
A state with highest oil derivations n earnings?? With common sense, shouldn't u know that he should n can pay salaries even d FAAC allocations is delayed for more than a month?
Lagos paid salaries for several months more than a decade a ago without FAAC allocations. Not even with oil derivations but by increase their igr.
Here u falling over ur selves n won't let us hear word.
When ur outgoing gov settled himself with 500m n properties in choicest areas in d country u couldn't come out to say anything.
Mtcheeew

Una don see where chicken the piss??

Restructure, no!!
Oya run this unrealistic n unfair system, mba.
