Marwa, a Koranic scholar, rejected the hadith
and the sunnah and regarded the reading of
any other book but the Koran as paganism
raised its head in 1979 during the
Administration of President Shehu Shagari
after he was contained by the Murtala and
Obasanjo Administrations. Maitatsine spoke
against the use of radios, watches, bicycles,
cars and the possession of more money than
necessary. Churches, Market, Police
Formations, Government buildings etc was
attacked leaving over FIVE thousand dead
btw 1979 and 1981 (including
Maitatsine).The Group moved to Kano, Borno,
Kaduna, Gombe and environs. Over 4,000

Crushed the Insurgency COMPLETELY within
16months. The 2i/c fled to Cameroon and
was arrested in 2004.

Chance" and subsequently brought law and
order.
3. Drug traffikers were executed.

PETROLEUM INFRASTRUCTURE:

1. As NNPC Chairman, He was the man that

at that time, Nigeria had just 1 Refinery-
Portharcourt Refinery, established in 1965.

THE PRESS:

He Instituted decree 2 and Decree 4 that was
aimed at gaging the Press and Banned street
protests. This is his only low but he was
honest in his actions.

GEJ

ECONOMY:

1. Nigeria Debt profile was cleared by the
Obasanjo Administration. As at September
2010(6 Months After Jonathan ascended to
power), Nigeria's Debt was $4.53 billion. As

woman despite Her 1ndictment by
Presidential Committee, Senate Committee,
HoReps on the N260m bullet proof cars.
She's even aspiring for the Senate.
2. Corrupt convict Alamesiegha was
pardoned in less than 8 years after his
conviction for corruption by the
Administration
3. Femi Otedola, Ifeanyi Ubah, Dizieani

Chairman of NNPC and Ifeanyi Ubah is the
leader of TAN Group Campaign-that
advocated for Jonathan's reelection.
4. Alleged Corrupt Officials in the ruling and
opposition parties are walking scot free.

5. despite the High corruption in every sector,
NO HIGH PROFILE conviction has been made
by the administration.
6. The President Publicly said "Stealing Is Not
Corruption"
7. $20b is allegedly missing from the
treasury. Though the Finance Minister refuted
the claim but admited that "about $10b is
unremitted"

INSURGENCY:

1.The Government Inherited Boko-Haram
sect...After they were initially contained by
the Yar Adua's Administration. under the
watch of this government, scores have dies
prematurely by the sect, towns, villages and
communities captured. Military Personnel
demotivated, some refused posting, majority
complaining of inadequate weapons and
ammunition. over 6000 Nigerians have been
killed. Hundreds kidnapped, infamous of the
kidnap is the CHIBOK KIDNAP of over 200
school girls.
2. Militants and Not Naval Personnel are
in charge of our waterways in the creeks
earning Billions on monthly basis. Oil
Bunkering is still common and shortchanging
the treasury.

OTHER SECURITY:

1. Robbery, Ritualism, BABY FACTORY,
Advanced Fee Fraud, "One Chance" is a
common menace.
2. Political motivated thuggery, street
thuggery is not uncommon.

PETROLEUM INFRASTRUCTURE:

in 2012 and upgrade of existing ones. Till
DATE nothing has changed. Fuel Subsidy
Import Bill stands at N1trn.

THE PRESS:

The Government Signed the Freedom of
Information Bill into Law, which is plausible.
But Cases of Military harassing Pressmen
and journalists on daily basis, That the
Committee to Protect Journalists on August
22, 2014Warned of dire consequences should
the infringement persist.(One begins to
wonder the sincerity in the FOI law).
Science/Technology › Re: Massive Ocean Discovered Towards The Earths Core by Btruth: 3:13pm On Sep 03, 2014
bushdoc9919: It came about after the seven days, that the water of the flood came upon the earth. In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the same day all the fountains of the great deep burst open, and the floodgates of the sky were opened. The rain fell upon the earth for forty days and forty nights.…

There's nothing happening that God doesn't know anything about it. Wonderful Lord!

daben1: If the family would just agree, the bodies should just cremated if not, the family will b exposed 2 the virus...
Have you been told that the corpses has the virus? Anyway, the best thing is for the government to carry out test on each corpse to determine the cause of death, otherwise, government should release the dead for their owner to be buried..... FG should not create "Ti Oluwa ni ile" part 2 in Nigeria oooo.
Politics › Re: 2015 Polls: Trouble Brews In INEC Over N9bn Ballot Papers Contract by Btruth: 6:47am On Sep 03, 2014
Wasting of time and resources. Nigerian printers can do a better job here as well. Imagine how much work N6b will create here for such a period. I don't trust INEC anyway.
Politics › Re: 61% Of Nigerians Approve Pres Jonathan’s Performance by Btruth:
Liars. I don't know why idiots in PDP like to be playing on people's intelligent? Let goes by the state alone. How many state did the PDP think they can win from the 36 states without rigging? Fine, they won in Ekiti after so much intimidation from the federal government on the people. But, go and ask the Ekiti people now if they are still happy with the mandate given to Fayose. Already, Fayose has started spending money in advance without him in the office yet. I was told last week that he went and bought an automobile of N17m and ask the sitting administrator to pay for it. Let the PDP in Ekiti come out to defend him for that. Will it be the refurbished locomotive that the railway corporation put on track and asked the masses to be paying N750 from Iddo terminus to Oshodi for? What is happening to continuous epileptic power supply in the federation? What about those terrible roads throughout the nation? Agege motorway for instance,....Dopemu, Iyana-Ipaja, Ile-Epo, Abule-egba, Kola, Alakuko, Toll-gate, Sango-Otta e.t.c. What about the declaration of Boko boys in some cities in the north as an Islamic town? Has the President or PDP done anything about the corruption in the NNPC and with the minister of petroleum? What about the missing $20b? What about the missing Chibok girls? Is the President not happy with all his false prophets of Transformation agenda? Is the President not so desperate to run for the second term in the office, even when asked about the corruption in his government, and he answered by saying that "how can Nigerian call mere stealing a corruption". You lots of PDP e-rats can be fooled, but millions like myself are not moved by your rants. In my own personal survey, and let's put sentiments apart, Mr Jonathan is yet to click 25% from the people. Majority of the people are disappointed, even people from his own state of Bayelsa. I have loads of friends from that region...Yenogoa to Ahoada to PH. Mr President and PDP should go prepare well for we shall definitely meet at the poll come 2015, when there will be a separation between boys and men. People like us follow facts and figures and not mere speculation and intimidation, neither do we wait for 10kg of bag of rice plus N5000. Shalom!
Politics › Re: Tinubu Replies Tom Ikimi by Btruth: 4:17pm On Sep 02, 2014
Right punch for tom-tom Ikimi. I never expect much from him though. People should know that no matter what, your past will always catch up with you. And to think that because he did not have the seat of the chairmanship of APC, and he decided to pack out, that has shows he has an hidden agenda and he is a selfish man too. Ole agbalagba.
Politics › Re: What Manner Of An Opposition Party Is APC? by Btruth: 1:49pm On Sep 02, 2014
@ OP, whatever, all we need is a change, we are tired of PDP. Let another party come to the helm of power. That is what is call change, and that is exactly what the majority want. It shouldn't be one party running the show continuously now, a bi?

And him, Jonadaf, having keep our $20b for such thing, thinking that he will win for the second time, will not suspect that he is a great looser in the making. Keep on forming all your groups, you all will meet your waterloo come 2015. Bunch of thieves. cool

Akainzo: So Atiku has been preventing the containers from being cleared for past 7 years of the Yaradua/GEJ and actual GEJ administration?

Your irrationality is so sickening. Until we learn to be objective in this nation, removing tribal and religious sentiments and dealing with issues squarely, we ain't gonna be moving positively in the development slope.
Listen, what I was speculating was the time frame, at least we all knew who was in power then. Also, we knew how much was/is Atiku in love with corruption......lol. And besides, why are you so disturbed? Is Atiku your brother?
Politics › Re: 248 Containers Of Power Transmission Equipment Sat At Apapa Port For 11 YEARS! by Btruth: 7:53am On Aug 30, 2014
11 years? Well, that was during Obasanjo & Atiku regime. And Atiku is known for serious importation of generator. And the same man was/is a cabal especially when it comes to custom duties. Atiku should have a hand in this. He's a serial generator importer.
