₦airaland Forum

This man should just rename the party.

Party destroying people (PDP) cannot sell again.

Or what are they going to preach to Nigerians again? That they are now born again? SMH!

Lolzz

Na them go drag Buhari come Nigeria.

I trust fayose he will go.

He shouldn't try rubbish.

Uk is an organize society. Nobody knows him as a governor over there

If he do anyhow he'll see anyhow.

Are we really educated in this part of the world?

Sometimes I wonder the impact of education in our Psyche. And the some people will say let's give the youth the chance to rule and I ask who are the people in the pictures?

Please read this post by VOA (Victor Okechukwu Anyaegbuna)
I repeat, PMB is not the problem of Nigeria. Take it or leave it.

WHO ARE THE KLEPTOCRATS?
Read this intriguing and provocative piece; yet Nigerians refuse to be provoked instead holding one man, Buhari, responsible for all their woes!
How far can you push a Nigerian before he reacts like an angry lion?
Isn't it a ridiculous mockery and insult that Nigerians are the only world citizens that when pushed to the wall, spend more energy to break the wall and cross over rather than fight back?
Read this and let's know who our real enemies and shameless oppressors are - GOVERNORS, EX-GOVERNORS, SENATORS, REPS. Can't we do something to get rid of these big thieves that use our power against us?
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
NIGERIANS WAKE UP!
A lion never shies away from a fight when it is hungry, neither does it blame the buffalo for resisting or refusing to be eaten.
How come our forefathers dared death and everything to give us a sane society?
Shaaaaaame!!!
Please endeavour to read this very interesting piece!

STATE OF THE NATION
A SELF DECEIVING COUNTRY CALLED NIGERIA

Twenty-one senators currently receiving pensions from government as ex-governors and deputy governors.

The current senators who once served as governors are Bukola Saraki of Kwara, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso of Kano, Kabiru Gaya of Kano, Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom, Theodore Orji of Abia, Abdullahi Adamu of Nasarawa, Sam Egwu of Ebonyi, Shaaba Lafiagi of Kwara, Joshua Dariye of Plateau Jonah Jang of Plateau, Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko of Sokoto, Ahmed Sani Yarima of Zamfara, Danjuma Goje of Gombe, Bukar Abba Ibrahim of Yobe, Adamu Aliero of Kebbi, George Akume of Benue and Isiaka Adeleke of Osun.

The former deputy governors in the Senate are Ms Biodun Olujimi of Ekiti and Enyinaya Harcourt Abaribe of Abia. Danladi Abubakar Sani served as the acting governor of Taraba state.

Many former governors are also in Buhari's Cabinet as Ministers. This includes: Ngige, Fayemi, Amaechi and Fashola (SAN).).

In Akwa Ibom State, the law provides that ex governors and deputy governors receive pension equivalent to the salaries of the incumbent. The package also includes a new official car and a utility vehicle every four years; one personal aide; a cook, chauffeurs and security guards for the governor at a sum not exceeding N5 million per month and N2.5 million for his deputy governor.

In Rivers, the law provides 100 percent of annual basic salaries for the ex-governor and deputy, one residential house for the former governor “anywhere of his choice in Nigeria”; one residential house anywhere in Rivers for the deputy, three cars for the ex-governor every four years and two cars for the deputy every four years.

It is alledged that in Lagos, a former governor will get two houses, one in Lagos and another in Abuja, estimated at N500 million in Lagos and N700 million in Abuja. He also receives six new cars to be replaced every three years; a furniture allowance of 300 percent of annual salary to be paid every two years, and a N30 million pension annually for life.

This is the reality for all the 21 ex govenors and deputy governors who are currently serving as senators. This same is also true of ex governors who are now serving as Ministers.

NOW I ASK:
How many years did these guys serve their states as governors and deputy governors? Is it more than 8years? Is that a reason to be entitled to pensions for life? Even if they are entitled to pension for life, must it be so outrageous?

As if that is not enough: HOW on earth can any public servant with conscience collect salaries and allowances as a senator or minister, and still have the audacity to claim pensions equivalent to the salaries of a serving governor in Nigeria?

IT ISN'T ROCKET SCIENCE......

Once you are elected a senator or appointed a minister, you must forfeit any pension accruing to you from government at any level until you vacate office. This should also apply to senators collecting military pensions like former Senate President David Mark.

Yet these senators are in the Senate that is inviting the current finance minister to discuss the recession of Nigeria's economy. A senator pockets approximately 30 million naira monthly as salary and allowances. Our "honourables" are not interested to make laws that could restructure our country into economically autonomous federating States/Regions to save the country from sectional agitations that is threatening to destroy Nigeria. The sad and hopeless situation is that the rest of Nigerians are busy arguing based on party, ethnic and affiliations while these enemies of state continue to rape us.

Do you know that it costs tax payers 290m Naira yearly to maintain each member of our National Assembly in a country where nothing works & 80% of population earn below 300 Naira a day ? A working day earning of a senator is more than a yearly income of a doctor; it's more than the salary of 42 Army generals or 48 professors or 70 commissioners of police or more than twice the pay of the US President or 9 times the salary of US congressmen.

It's high time the country had a referendum on those outrageous salaries of Senators, House of Representative members and other political office holders.

Do you agree?

You mean after the Feb 5 protest?

Make this man no go get heart attack o

Why can't this people just stood their ground instead of swapping parties or who's that angel telling them to switch?

Well, over to the Wailers sha

seunmsg:
Gov. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State, Senator Ike Ekweremadu and other dignitaries were atAkanu Ibiam International Airport, Enugu -to receive the monarch

The highest ranking Ibo government official in Nigeria and a sitting Ibo governor both queued up at the airport to welcome a Fulani monarch. Despite the temptation, I won't call anybody slave or slavemaster. However, the misguided iPod trolls should look at this pictures and be properly guided.

My brother, you have said it all. Many of them are ignorant, infact I laughed when I saw topic and the pics.

Do they think their leaders read what they posted on NL? Am sorry for the E- wailers

Now their adorable leaders all went to the airport to greet a fulani lord they love to hate. Pls the E-wailers, don't forget to see him off to the airport, lol.

Tinubu wings don grow o.

Anyway, Bubu still respect him pass any politician

Even those that say all manner of thrash against him on NL will never forget the memory in their entire life if they happen to meet him.

I thought this man always smile whenever he goes to court.

Oh! He just suddenly realize he's going to spend another Xmas in the prison.

I expect you guys to discuss this topic rather than throwing abusive words at each other.

Back to the topic, with additional 150 universities now, what will happen to the one that's in a state of comatose?

With the rise in private universities, the public ones will soon go into extinction

As these are currently some of the means of making money in Nigeria.

So guys which is more profitable and reliable?

EmeeNaka:
Obasanjo has waken up
Obasanjo said
“And yet once you are on seat, you have to clear the mess and put the nation on the path of rectitude, development and progress leaving no group or section out of your plan, programme and policy and efforts. The longer it takes, the more intractable the problem may become.”
So,Obasanjo is just discovering that Buhari has left some section of Nigeria out of his government?

A wise man takes his time before he talks and that's what Obj just did and because he voted for pmb doesn't mean he shouldn't criticize him when he err.

Now, he's speaking for the "section" that pmb neglected while their leaders look on, yet ur complaining

Confusion everywhere

If this people meet their colleagues at an event, they shake hands, hugs and laugh at each other irrespective of tribal or religious differences.
