Hmmmm, I wish we could even remember to complain of water during Luck Igbenidion PDP era as a governor, but neither am I justifying APC governors negligence but all am saying is that if PDP governors could do atleast one-third of what APC governors are doing, I think by now Nigeria would have been a heaven on earth.

Bros I think if these are just the few problem in APC states then we need to compliment them and say kudos to them, because those problem mentioned above can't be compare to the amount of hardship that Nigerians are facing in the hand of PDP govt since the inception of democracy, and even with d situation mentioned, u can't still compare any APC governors to the wasteful PDP governors who ditches out millions of naira our after every political meeting in terms on performance. The best PDP governor should be compared to the worst performing APC governors( all things been equal).

For your information sir, no state can have it all. Even the drunken master in Aso rock has not been able to create any meaning impact since he assume the office of the president because up till today,

1. Our girls are still in d forest crying day and night and hoping for a miracle to happen!
2. Millions of niara are been looted day and night.
3. We are still expecting power (NEPA) e.t.c. Come 2015 jonathan must return to the creek where he belongs.

Sentiment apart, which past Nigeria President / Head of state recorded such remarkable achievements in 3-years?
I have no doubt in my mind that Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, will surely be re-elected in 2015 based on his achievements.
Let the Transformation Continue!!![/s]

Some of these guys are too damn ignorant walahi!! In an event of an all out no-holds-bared diplomatic row with SA, Nigeria stands to lose the most. Do they have any idea the number of nigerians making a living in that country while sending monies back home for family upkeep?? Do they know the number of nigerians in South African schools at various levels of study?? Do they know the number of jobs local South African companies have provided nigerians??

These guys are just incorrigible fools. Hating on another country simply because she blew the whistle on your government's corruption, something they should be grateful for!!

Mscheew.

jaso1:
I believe there is something hiding to us all on this shady weapon deal. Can't this country be serious for second? When did this country descend or diminished to this level? The procurement team for this weapon what is their level of education? Does procurement act of such transaction was adhere to? The rule of law in SA do they comply with it? If no, the money should be seized for life and Nigeria govt. Make such move again SA should sue Nigeria government for attempt corruption infection and misappropriation of Nigeria money.

NgeneUkwenu:
Crap! Very useless threat that carries no weight.

The fact is that, the whole world knows how corrupt, jonathan, his pastor and friends are, so in their opinion they are withholding the money till next year when an incorruptible, legitimate and purposeful leadership that would be led by the people's General is sworn in.

Kudos to SA for coming to our rescue!

omenka:
When it comes to how low Jonathan's government can sink in the realm of shame, there seems to be no limit at all!!

So because they have investments in Nigeria, Nigeria should be granted the right to violate their laws without question. What a funny country. South African economic indices are light years ahead of Nigeria's and wouldn't feel as much as a pinch should their investments in this banana republic (as transformed into by Jonathan) be hurt.

Matter of fact, Nigeria would be the biggest looser should anything happen to the companies mentioned. Imagine the number of people that would be thrown unto the streets should brands like DSTV and MTN close shops in the country!!

We are grappling with crippling unemployment rates and should be looking at doing whatever we can to keep the people so far employed at their duty posts and not get involved in some empty chest beatings which would certainly do us more harm than good!! They have a law abiding and responsible and respectable govt unlike the bunch of nonentities we have presiding over our affairs. If the say don't break their laws, DON'T. SA is not NIGERIA!

What a useless government. Smh.
