When has visiting a wife become a crime in Nigeria?i just wonder hits some people reason at times,nobody wants to sick and everybody needs rest ones in while...we are all human beings.

1025: this is jonathan and jega form of free and fair elections. free and fair when everybody knows who will win in all the elections.

Dis GEJ or Jega even know the contestant?if u don't have anything to say,pls keep quiet.

Goldieluks: Useless man, its not as if the hoe of a bisi ibidapo is more beautiful than his stunning wife.
What a waste for a husband.

Sincerely women must be wary of guys they get married too,it's not all abt money,firm and looks its all abt love,just look at this beautiful woman and children and irresponsible Dino is cutting corners with some women it's so sad...I wish he understands that nobody will listen to him again when shouts abt corruption,cos this his act is the true manifestation of corruption.

Sincerely we must commend the JTF for always doing a good job,this is an indication that the end of Boko Haram is very near....

Demdem: i honestly feel this guy should be given the aluu treatment. He is an irredeemable liar.

you are sadist,you can recommend such punishment for anybody,it means people like you can do worst.

Dino Melaye is at it again from activism to impregnating young ladies, i just wonder what kind of human being who likes controversies, he should take responsibilities for his actions.Guilty as charged.

Let the bill start with their children....

Abeg make wuna allow mama make she rest,she needs it.

GEJ's records are showing that he is performing very well,I think he has been transparent enough....

uncle u: You don't know him? He spent four years fighting in the Federal house of representative. He lost the last election and automatically became a new breed democrat.

Abi if wuna go help am,the man Dino is so desperate to extend that he can accept pay cuts.....SOS....

There is improvement in everything,only the blind cannot see this transformation going on.....as for me,I will contribute my part to the development of my dear country and support every administration cos that's my duty.

Hurray!the govt is not doing badly at all....more of that.

Some Elders eyes don begin to the open be that,our prayers is that everyone should begin to think correctly and contribute in the development of our dear country...

A former Inspector-General of Police, Alhaji Gambo Jimeta, on Wednesday accused members of the Northern Elders Forum of sowing seeds of discord in the country.

Specifically, he accused the elders of causing confusion in the polity in order to discredit the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan.

Responding to a comment credited to the NEF that the Jonathan administration was worse than that of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, the former police boss accused the northern elders of being hypocritical in their assessment.

Jimeta said instead of seeking real solutions to the nation’s problems, the elders “chose cowardly path to create confusion and mistrust.”

He said in a statement, “As for the unfortunate comment credited to the Northern Elders Forum that Jonathan’s government is worse than Obasanjo, it is disappointing to note that other Nigerians who should have been steering the course of nation building decided to pull those pillars down by sowing the seeds of enmity and political hypocrisy in order to distract Nigerians from the truth.

“Rather than rolling up their sleeves to actively find solutions to alleviate the suffering of Nigerians, they chose to pull us backward again and force us to play the blame game. The hydra-headed monster of collective responsibility in the nation’s down fall also has thousands of fingers pointing at those who sit in judgment in the Northern Elders’ Forum.”

Comparing the administrations of Jonathan and Obasanjo, he said, “How short is the memory of these Nigerians that they would choose to sweep away the cases of massive corruption that plagued the Obasanjo administration or the flagrant disregard of court judgments?

“What about the elections that brought the violent ethnic and religious crisis? The Jos and Kaduna crises all happened under his watch. Have they so easily forgotten the crisis in the aviation industry that saw a season of death through multiple air crashes?”

There is no point to be scared of them,since he is the commander in chief and he is on top of the situation,the evil sect will surely come to an end very soon.

The Presidency has dismissed claims that President Goodluck Jonathan is afraid of Boko Haram.

Special Assistant to the President on Public Communication, Dr. Doyin Okupe, said this at a media briefing in Abuja on Tuesday.

He said it was wrong to assume that Jonathan refused to go to Eagles Square, Abuja, for the second year running to mark the country’s 52nd Independence on Monday because he feared he could be attacked by the Islamic sect.

Okupe said, “The President was not and is not afraid of the sect. To say he celebrated the anniversary in his bedroom because of Boko Haram sect is an insult.”

But when asked why the President increased the number of the Special Forces Battalion of the Brigade of Guards in the Presidential Villa, Okupe said it was because the Boko Haram issue was a very serious one.

He said, “We are dealing with a very serious sect, Boko Haram, and I am surprised that people are asking why the President is ensuring that his security is beefed up.

“Under this circumstance, the President is the commander-in-chief. When you go to war; the commander-in-chief is the one in charge.

“When you go to war, in those days the man that carries the flag, when he falls down, that is the end of the war.

“So, you have to make sure that he (the C-in-C) stands and stands erect. The fact that the security in the Villa is beefed up is borne out of necessity and circumstances.”

President presented regimental colour to the newly established 176 Special Forces battalion of the Brigade of Guards at the Presidential Villa on Monday.

The new battalion was said to have been established due to insecurity in the country.

Its establishment brought the number of battalions under the guard to three.

Our correspondent reports that a battalion is made up of between 700 and 1000 soldiers.

However, a typical battalion under the United Nations is usually made up of 776 soldiers.

Okupe chided the opposition political parties for their criticisms of the government.

He said the only thing  the opposition celebrates was “evil and disasters,” wondering why they refused to join hands with the Federal Government to fight corruption in the country.

He said the way the opposition was conducting its affairs, indicated that its members were not ready to assume power in 2015.

Intrepid!:
Social Media activist my under-governed arse! Modafoka was looking for cheap publicity and got it! I thought he was suing them for N50million, how come he settled for an ipad3 after yelling he lost 'valuable documents' in the missing tablet? To think it was an ipad2 he lost... No shame. I sure say na mojo and Angry birds e dey play for the one wey miss come dey shout parapara everywhere. Fug him, and fug that crappy Arik.

he is just a greedy little boy looking for cheap popularity,and people like this are calling others corrupt,who knows how much he collected from Arik,is this not corruption?

Shekau is just a drowning man whose end isI near,these are just defeatist tendencies,BK is abt to be shout down..well done JTF and govt.

Murphy T: mehn!i give it to dis guys, kai! they have really tried...e no good, e no good, but e dey help...at first pple complain bitterly abt their presence, now c hw helpful the hav become...God bless una well well and una oga,GEJ

Naija go survive,we will pass thru all this someday..

As if they clean in the house,I think they need more pourging than any arm of govt...

Demdem: Excellent. then why are they the basis of Retardeen's boast. Jonathan qouted them to rate his admin high in relation to US. Probably our President doesnt know what he is talking about also

they bring all sorts of false statistics to make people feel bad abt the govt,we have a choice to subscribe to their lies...GEJ is not a liar, I don't we will ever get a gentle President like him,I wish we can all support him he will certainly deliver...

Demdem: ^^^

No one is asking that it should be wiped out in one year. what we all are requesting is gradual reduction. It cant even be eradicated. However what we have seen so far in this administartion (from 2010 till date) as attested to by Transparency International itself is the opposite. Transparency international said things are getting worse. That expalains why peeps like me believe the Retardeen isnt doing enough if at all he is doing anything except to talk and boast about it. No action. If it improved during OBJ's time why shouldnt it improve now?

how transparent is TI?should we continue to allow outsiders to rate us as they wish,I don't subscribe to imperialists judgements.

Amen....

Frank-C:
Let me assume for a moment that you are an anti corruption crusader who does not give a damn (at least all of us have something we don't give a damn about) any political party, please, let us pay a visit to Lagos, the nearest approximation of Nigeria in composition. Did Fashola declare his assets publicly? And while at it, please, tell how much Gov Fashola's feeding budget for 2012 is. You may also find out whose job it is to remove immunity clause. Tell us who represents you at HoR and who your Senator is and how you have made your case to them to push for a bill to remove immunity clause.

Transparency is the first and most important tool in the fight against corruption. If you want to know how to fight corruption with institutions, please tell us what Yar'adua and OBJ feeding budget is like. OBJ's methods failed because the battle was very personalized. Structures need to be being put in place to make corruption unattractive. We have not obviously done enough in the fight against corruption, just like all aspect of our national life but to claim that corruption is higher now is simply not true. Rather, we know more about what formerly happens behind the curtains now and this is what i see as the real anti-corruption war, driven by the common man like Demdem and Frank-c and not from the Presidential Villa only that Demdem chose to battle the guys that put him incharge of this battle.

hmmmmm,all these noise makers on NL parading themselves as anti corruption crusaders are just not fair in their analysis,how do you expect corruption to be wiped out in one year,something that has become systemic,GEJ is not a magician,he also inherited a battered system,u dont just wake up and expect everything to change,governance is a continuous process,we as individuals must also join the fight in our little way,abusing office holders will not and cannot bring any solution.

1025: this is a useless news. even the corrupt idiots in nigeria know that nobody is fighting them.

Except you abi....when last did you pay your tax?

Shame on you,after blasting the airline,I thought you are a big boy,have they removed ur name from the blacklist?i can see humility setting in next time watch your mouth ko.

Dis Guy: Gordon Brown
Bush
Obama
Putin
etc

these people just go on with the job (exfept for putin) they werent obsessed with being the most 'praised', they answered their critics and responded as well as they can to criticism, you dont respect people just for the sake of it!

not the way some people on this platform are disrespecting the President,at least he is our leader,the opposition parties who think they are more saintly than than GEJ,opposition is abt presenting facts on ground not abusing an exalted office like that of a President,GEJ is our symbol we must respect him.

Demdem: But the facts before me hinders my brain to tune in to such. its overwhelmingly damning. Things were bad in 2010, became worse in 2011, transparency even complained in May 2012. Common, how do u expect me to be optimistic with corruption index forthcoming. These are the facts before us all. i also want things to be better, don't be deceived.

Oga Demdem pls what's the way forward?

Gbosa.....BH get ready for your extinction,this is our fight these people are sick and evil,we must rid them from our societies...

Hurray.....corruption is a canker worm that should be fought by all and sundry,govt alone cannot fight this monster alone we must all join the queue to rid our country from this evil,talk is cheap.

It is an open secret that the short mallam is a big rogue,my concern is how he cannot keep his mouth shut despite the fact that his hands are not clean,nobody should be above the law,stealing is stealing he should face the wrath of law when found guilty.
