BetaThings:
How does Jonathan and indeed Christians promote secularity
Don't you think then that we should not go to work on Fridays
Or at least 1st half of the year or every odd no year, we don't go to work on Fri and vice versa


And how are you guys promoting inclusion?
Infact you celebrate removal of every sign of Islam. Is that how you show it belongs to us all
The hate based on falsehood that your pastors preach must be frightening


If they had done it, what would have happened? You guys just throw up conspiracy theories
Is Lagos not the smallest state? how would it cope
Do you know that Nigeria is not the first country to change its capital
Do you recall the gridlock in Lagos whenever Jonathan comes around
Did you know that the committee that was responsible for selecting a new capital was headed by Justice Akinola Aguda


You are a dangerous writer
This is not the first time that this will be done
Soludo started it. Was there any riot?
You guys speak lies but pretend to be authoritative about it


Your uncle - now, we don't know him or even if he exists, do we?
Anyway my own uncle said that Yaradua had good plans. Did my uncle not say that. So Your Uncle 1, My Uncle 1 = draw
At least I recall that he said he could not host the 2009 U17 for N36b and held out until it was slashed to N9b
Google it
But we know how oil subsidy easily topped N2tr under Jonathan


And this is how we take decisions
Anybody can say anything and we just accept it as the truth!!!
Is this how decisions are made in a progressive country?
So you think anyone cannot come up with the "real reason" that Jonathan sacked Sanusi?
Something like "Jonathan wanted to sequester money away for his election rigging plans and Sanusi refused!"


So Obj wanted to continue ruling right through Yaradua's time
The nickel dropped!
So the country belongs to all of us
But Yaradua should be subject to Obj's grand re-denomination plan
You forget
You forget
That Soludo introduced a new note (N1,000) and shortly after he wanted to re-denominate
And he also introduced coins before his redenomination plan
Is that not confusion?
How is that a manifestation of a grand plan?
And what is so strategic about the re-denomination plan? And Obj did not announce it? Even very sound economists faulted it?
All these convoluted lying should stop



To start, who is benefitting from Boko Haram - APC or Jonathan. Of course it is Jonathan - no election in APC dominant-areas
Why should he do anything. You have been suckered
Remind me again the reason why Boko Haram took lives during the time of Yaradua
prompting Yaradua to order the violent suppression of their rebellion leading to the death of their leader?
Yet when Jonathan was going to embark on his strange ceasefire, people wondered why he was doing it at the time when BO was weak!
So why are we not killing BH when they are weak and yet they are now killing us
BH is mostly Kanuri - Buhari is Fulani
BH is in the NE
So why are the "hateful" Hausa/Fulani in the NW not the core of BH?
And we know that the NW inspite of your hateful message gave sizable votes to Jonathan in 2011


To start with, some of us suffer from Amnesia tell us the authoritative source for your statement
I hope it is not some aunt that told you
And Jonathan's second term is borne out of the love for Nigeria?
When Fashola was opening the Ikoyi bridge, he commended Yaradua for RAPIDLY giving approval for the demolition of a FG building that would be affected by the
Your Nigerians-loving Jonathan brought in soldiers to stop Fashola from constructing a building in Ilubirin
It took this Nigerians-loving Jonatan 3 weeks Aug 13 to meet govenrors after Ebola landed in Nigerian shores
It took him less than 48 hours to move against Tambuwal
He sacked Justice Salami on a Sunday and also formed PDP-gov forum on a Sunday
Jonathan went for rally in Kano and birthday party the day after Nyanya bomb blast
But cancelled FEC meeting due to Sambo younger brother's death
Are you for real?


You are ungrateful and don't fear God
Yaradua's state of Katsina gave JONATHAN 25% of their VOTES
Kano gave him 17%
Tell us the what the South gave Buhari?


What intellectual minds
This is pure sophistry
and is not so well done
SO this premise of theirs was disclosed to you? Where did they say it? Intellectual minds without proof?
With contradictory statements
This country is sick
Jonathan's supporters will claim any reason to present him as a victim


So why is Jonathan President and Fashola or Duke is not?
How come Utomi fizzled out and Jonathan waxed strong in 2011?
What is Patience doing lording it over everyone from Bayelsa to Rivers to Kwaras to Oyo to Delta?
Did you listen to Amaechi - 3rd mainland bridge, the Refineries, NLNG, Pipelines, Abuja, etc were done by Northerners
But Jonathan, a southern product of quota system, has been talking about East-West road for 6 years
yes we have a fantastic transformation on radio and tv
Logs in your eyes. LOOOOk!


What viper? Are you not saying that Jonathan will be president on Feb 14?
So they just want the APC ticket and not the presidency?
And how come this viper did not stop Jonathan from returning himself as the sole PDP candidate
This has never happened before
Is Jonathan deepening democracy?


So how come a weak Jonathan is your choice
How did he get there?
Another of Obj's grand plan?


Leave Minna and Kano
Visit Lagos and Ogun that commemorate June 12
But what about Oyo state? Ondo? Delta? Akwa Ibom? Rivers? Are they not laughing too then?
Who is stopping the Houses of Assembly in the South from making June 12 public holiday
Yoiu are a wicked liar and you need to really begin to fear God
What did Obasanjo do to immortalise Abiola? Was he not the first


And your poisoned pen is deadlier than BokoHaram's evil
We know Jonathan covers up for his incompetence by using religion and ethnicity to divide and distract
Chief Arthur Eze, campaigning for PDP in Anambra gov elections, said in the presence of Jonathan that "we voted for him (Ngige) and he now joined Awolowo's party (ACN)"
Did Jonathan rebuke him? Did he caution Asari for saying that Northerners are parasites
Did he censure people who are saying that it does not matter whether Jonathan performs or not, vote him, he is a Christian
You think that is how to build a country?


Indulgence in self importance

The dementedness and idiocy of your person smells to high heavens. the golden rule states that you must not do to others what you wouldnt want them to do to you. If Emefiele had removed the inscription and replaced it with a Hebrew writing, We will have the whole north burning by now. Why must the inscription be in the currency in the first place? Is Nigeria not a secular state. Dont allow me face you and expose the northern avarice and monopoly over the years.

jojotemitopaz:
so since those arabic text have been on the notes has it threatened the existence of chirstains b4 now or has it made muslims stronger. The north speaks more of hausa and arabic yet cuz u dominated in the south u believe the whole of nigeria is like here in the south west...I feel all these actions are the sor es of these religious tensions....and most of tbe coments here are fueling it with too much sentiments...how really does its removal help anyone

I dont know how to answer you because you dont understand subliminals, signs and symbols rule the world....there is a purpose for everything under heaven...you wont understand

ennon92:
I'm neither a fan nor a politician but its obvious that since the inception of democracy in 1999 with PDP @ d centre, we've not really moved forward as a nation blessed with both human and natural resources and what av u.
However, a president that av d love of his ppl @ heart would never thought of going for 2nd term inspite of the spate of bombings thereby leading to the killings of innocent souls on a daily basis. Its high time for other parties too tasted the power @ d federal level.

Hey bro, i disagree with you, other parties coming in to lead will only be acceptable to intellectual minds if they come up with an alternative development plan. Till today, i do not understand APC working plan...If you understand it, please educate me...OBJ, A man who had the chance to chat the good course for our development for 8 years loothed us dry and its same OBJ APC consults now and begs to join them...they lack ideology. Imagine the nonsense Lai mohammed said the other day. We will stop Bokoharam, we will negotiate with the real bokoharam when we take over power. So he is waiting to take over power to be patriotic. He has solution but evil desire for power will make him go quiet.

GEJ resigning will not end terror, Isis is in iraq, their president has not resigned, Syria, palestine and co where terror is more vicious has not resigned...you dont run away from problem you face it. Mind you America is fighting Isis and yet they are waxing stronger.

anonimi:
Can this really be true about our Armed Forces
IF true that may partly explain why the soldiers find it difficult to eradicate the Boko Haram TERRORISTS

Meanwhile I guess this brief re-introduction of Arabic unto our Naira notes is the legacy of the former Chief Imam of CBN who is now Emir of Kano.




https://naijamayor.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/lamido.jpg

Go close to a decorated officer and its obvious.

The next to be removed should be the Arabic inscriptions on our military badges, and rankings....Nigeria is a secular state...period.

This madness has to stop, National assembly is built like a mosque, the presidential villa is built like a mosque....This country belongs to us all and is never a religious state. visit any ministry, parastatal or agency of the government in Abuja. the master plan of those buildings have mosques...They couldn't have the freedom to do that in Lagos, and came up with the script that the capital of Nigeria has to be at the center of Nigeria.

We just need to be security conscious cos in matter of days the news that Hausa/Islamic Inscriptions has been removed will go viral, they will tag all of us HARNI (meaning Unbeliever) and may go on rampage killing themselves not me.

I remember my uncle who was a member of MPR telling me that Soludo had good plans for the Naira but the northern hegemony wont allow him. That his problem with Yaradua began the day he raised it in their meeting that Nigeria is a secular state and so should not have any religious inscription in our currency. He said YARADUA heard of it before that meeting ended. Of course his brothers informed him. Yaradua called Soludo as the meeting was ending to ask how true.

Most people think Soludos tenure was not renewed because of the planned devaluation of the naira which presidency claims they were not carried along. but the inscription on the naira was the genesis of Soludos crisis with Yaradua. OBJs grand plan was that Soludo should remain and complete the devaluatuion plan.

In days to come expect the northern elites reaction to this removal.and may be Bokoharam taking more innocent lives in protest...Nigeria belongs to them and we are their slaves...so an average northerner thinks.

Except for those suffering from historical Amnesia, the 2015 struggle to take power by the north is never born out of the love for Nigeria. The North has not forgiven Southern Nigeria for the death of Yaradua. In their heart, in their mosques, its a subject of discuss that Jonathan is seating on their chance and must be unseated no matter what. Ineeded, Jonathan has disappointed all of us greatly but the North seeking power on the premise that it belongs to them or based on vendetta is a NO NO for me and all intellectual minds.

I dont know how we came up with Quota system, but that stuff has only served in the interest of the north. I dont know any southerner who has benefited from Quota system. We sacrificed merit at the altar of that Northern grand plan. If not tell me why Fashola should not be given APC presidential ticket to have a good election. But try that and see the viper react...It must be them or nothing.They annuled June 12, gave it to Weak Shonekan for few months and chased him out again, killed Abiola in the prison so that , his case will remain in the ash bin of history. Today, my people cry for remeberance of June 12 and they laugh from Minna and Kano.they knew what they were doing... If you are up north during the election, and Jonathan is declared winner, better run for your life. They will unleash the evil dragon, what Bokoharam is doing now is childs play compared to the plan.

bookmark this and quote me on Feb 14th.

This maybe the beginning of crisis for Nassarawa state and Naija at large. Remembering Mohammed yusuf.

I said it when they descended on him after he decamped that they will keep him busy in court till election is over.
Again, his political future is better off with governorship aspiration. that presidency thingy is a long thing for him.

He cant stand, Buhari, Atiku and kwankwaso.

ennon92:
gej loyalist

My loyalty and patriotism is to Nigeria...My voter card is still open...If APC presents Buhari, Bingo! i am behind PDP. WE NEED TO GIVE THE YOUNGER GENERATION A CHANCE.

More over, this same democracy, Buhari seeks, he truncated in 1983, Had he allowed our democracy to evolve, we would have been almost 40 years in democracy.

QUESTIONS IN MY MIND

Why has Bokoharam become more vicious, devious and sporadic after GEJs declaration?

Will Election hold Next year?

Will Nigeria survive it?

What is the way forward out of this mess...and dont tell me its failure of FG. Cos America is still battling Isis with all their sophistication.

Infact Kssigs head was beheaded by Isis few hours ago and Obama called it Wicked..the man don tire.

I have said it that in the nearest future, Sex will be a game in Olympics.

Whenever America conquers Isis, we shall conquer bokoharam....its here to stay. Terror is part of the challenge of the age.

The truth is that Tambuwals political future has hybernated till 2019. He will wake up in 2015 to curse his advisers.

So right prof....Steve Jobs never allowed his children to use any gadget....lt is a stealer of time and destiny.

@op, you need brain examination....do you stay close to Yaba.? Abeg call me with that number.

That guy should better have a spare life somewhere....cos if he begins to pull crowd...Tinubu will kill him. Tinubu sees everything as business. Including APC. First he wooed Atiku, now he has told Tambuwal to forgo Sokoto governorship aspiration. What he is up to...time will tell.

Is he wearing a trouser or a sack.

He must have studied suicide bombing in school. They should search him properly

Can APC win 2015? Yes.
Will they win? No

Why? They play regional politics with northern hegemony as the sole agenda. They lack strategy in broader sense. The have totally ignored market women, artisans and corporate Nigeria...their only known tool is the social media and less than 30 percent of those on social do not have voter card.

This may sound unpopular to the lay but few sound minds who focus on issue based politics will give it to Atiku. His agenda for 2015 elections is unparalled by both GEJ and Buhari. He is also a grassroot politician. The shocker will be when he emerges as the flagbearer. Both Gej and GMB are not politicians. His history of Corruption is the only yoke on his neck

hollandis:
Dr myles munroe endorsed the COAS pastor who committed adultery and he even bought the guy a car.

I hope he goes to heaven

Sister Hollandis, Do not judge biko, so that i can see you in heaven....lets assume what you said is true. What if He has confessed his sins before God, dont you think God must have forgiven and forgotten and you, human still have it at heart. Myles is gone, na me and you remain biko.

Lie Mohammed has a PHD in lieing...i wonder why person go born picking name am LIE.

Anyways, Terror in Nigeria has taken a higher dimension beyond PDP and APC...while they tea party and trade blames the cancer is spreading.

Abeg, i have a question, If America, U.K and France are fighting Isis and they have not been able to conquer them with all the sophistications, How can Naija with obsolette arms fight bokoharam? INDEED, Isis is taking new territories in Iraq and recruiting more. its a global network advancing forcefully and the financiers are mega rich.

Naija people thinks Bokoharam is a PDP or APC affair. Politicians built Bokoharam but it has gone rogue and weigh beyond them...I cant wait for election to finish....If APC wins, their first disappointment to Nigerians will be their inability to stop Boko boys....Only NIGERIANS CAN STOP IT WHEN WE ADOPT THE EBOLA APPROACH.

If OBJ fought corruption why is it still in GEJs govt. OBJs corruption fight against corruption was pure vendetta and selective fight....OBJ was corruption personified....our political bias wont allow us be objective. GEJ, OBJ,PDP, APC are all corrupt. How did they make their money. How much is their basic salary....abeg save some logical minds this your political post.

E no go better for the demon wey possess this boy.

Some clueles ones with no knowledge about the present oil dive and how the money market operates will flood this thread and insult people.....

I woke up this morning and my opening post on facebook was Pray for Nigeria. That was a fall out of what was revealed to me last night...Just today, Another bomb goes off in Kotangora, Niger State. I was frequenting that town between 2005 to 2007 in my public speaking and preaching engagements. There is a fundamental problem...the terrorists have well indoctrinated their people into believing that dying is far better than leaving, and that they should die with a loud boom and with as many people as they can carry along...while we try to blame Mr. President, take time to think of this. We have a big problem in our hands. Since 2001, Iraq has been fighting extremists with the support of the so called Allied forces and they have not made head way. Few weeks back, the Allied forces declared war on Isis, One would have thought that by now, Isis will be a history, considering the amoury and technological expertise used by the Allied forces made up of U.S, France, U.K and some Arab Nations. Till today Isis is still taking new territories in Iraq and advancing forcefully. We must be aware that they behead people flog children and upload it on Youtube like Bokoharam and U.S with all the allied forces can't trace where those videos are uploaded from.. Needless to talk about Pakistan, Palestine and Israel where Terror has become recuurent on daily basis...What i am saying is that it is a global plan being unveiled in piece meal.

Bokoharam has taken a new dimension that startles our defence every day. we dont all have the intel as much as the men upfront...what disturbs me most is that Nigerians instead of praying for our gallant soldiers accuse them of incompetence..if a small girl walking towards you wrapped in a hijab is carrying a knife, an IED or anything else for that matter, how are you going to know?? that's the same way the soldiers and victims usually do not know who the next attacker will be, and that's why we are having this problem...Just imagine a little girl wearing hijab approaching you and you have no incline what she is carrying or capable of. Our soldiers are not spirits.

Bokoharam has become far worrisome because they have captured and indoctrinated children..The Yobe 49 that died this week comes to mind...Children playing with their mates never imagined that one of them was wired with IEDs, and boom it goes off. Soon, fear and distrust will be instilled in our Children especially amongst their peers. This can not be.

To buttress my point and the script being acted accross the globe type ABUJA DECLARATION 1989 and read the wikipedia analysis of what the declaration was all about.

I did not write the above...Copied from Tims O'better's facebook wall.
Lets not be naive and point fingers at each other while this global plan is being unveiled.

I was asking this question because it appears many people are not in-sinc with APCs political ideologies and standpoints...They are just tired of corruption and Buhari seems like the face to fight corruption... i have asked many Buhari supporters for the APC agenda and template for Nigeria and its not forth coming....Corruption must go is the anthem and Buhari is to do that... however, i have my fears, i worked with Atiku in 2003, although not for too long and i know how wealthy that guy is and what he is capable of.

I look forward to an interesting democratic election next year where whoever emerges as president will not see it as a walk over but meanly contested.

I just dont want violence from any party.

Why cut my body in the name of tattoo.

Tattoo ko dasun ni

Atiku is a grassroot politician and a master tactician...we know Naija plays money politics....OBJ had to beg him in 2003 because he was in control of the governors. He appears to be unseen at the moment as Sai Buhari soars in our political firmament. A lot is working for Atiku, He is a seasoned and tactful politician with so much money to spend. Delegates to vote in the APC convention will vote to select who they want based on money shared. Atiku's men may be strategically focusing on the delegates coming for the convention. Buhari enjoys massive popularity that has been accorded him by the media...So much attention is on him as the face of the opposition. Atiku appears relegated, but.....

What if Tinubu, after all prefers Atiku?

I wish to ask, What if Buhari does not emerge as the flag bearer of APC?

What is your take?

soe:
Op you are wrong.

I am a full beneficiary of this administration

But I would rather have a leader that can save the poor masses from unwanted deaths in cold blood that has been on since 2010.

2019 is a long wait... If we must be sincere ...we all know GeJ has failed in his number 1 duty...to safeguard our people, our land and our territories.

vote PdP out

Objectivity is key bro, please be objective, Bokoharam started as far back as 2001...While our elite embarked on tea party...the monster grew.
OBJ, Yaradua and now GEJ have all faced Bokoharam.

Bokoharam has taken a political dimension and has left the control of mr president...this is democracy and not military regime....everything is resolved on the table of dialogue and diplomacy.

orasuyiefosa:
u sso stupid, like very stupid....those arE the peepss BH sshud attack n not the innocent nigerianss.....trust me Godd we not spare u not even BH

I shouldn't have answered a low life like you...and you think in your fish brain that Bokoharam can get to mr president...Is it not normal citizens in eagle square that will die. stop breathing from breathing from your an.us

orasuyiefosa:
Boko haram do ssomething naaaa

May it not be well for you and your entire lineage...Capital idiot slowpoke like you...Why on earth will you wish a bomb on another... May your family be victims of bokoharam..The one you did in Yobe is not enough.Goshhh

I came out this morning on my way to my office and met mad traffic. As in grid lock. It dawned on me that GEJ was declaring. I gave my neighbour a lift and he was reading the book of lamentation while we were at the hold up. He said why and how can one man put all our lives on hold this morning because he was declaring....My disposition to politics is hinged on interest and power. probably because of my political family background.

Everyone approach politics with closed hands of interest. Talk is very cheap, and people can cry foul when their interest is not represented.

I asked him a simple question. Oga, if your father for instance the minister for Agriculture and will be at the eagle square for presidents declaration, and with what Bokoharam is doing, will you mind how tight security becomes today?

He was open minded and honest, he said, wallahi, i wont care, Bokoharam is not smiling and i cant loose my father to them. He went ahead to say that if his father was PDP, he will certainly support PDP. Two memebers of one family can belong to seperate political parties but they do so on where it favours them most.

The truth is that if you have a father, mother brother a even a close ally whom you benefit from, you wont mind what is going on today as in the tight security and traffic. Man is a product of interest.

Lets look at it broadly, Igbos have thrown their weight behind GEJ because they see him as a close brother, and he has given them juicy ministerial appointments and positions. The Yorubas are angry with GEJ because they feel they have never been this far from the center in terms of top positions. The North is mad with GEJ also because, they feel the present tenure of GEJ is meant to be their Yaradua slot. and so to them, power MUST come back to the north. Everything is hinged on interest....

If you or your father is announced tommorow as the new minister for youths, If you are sincere, your disposition towards the current government will change. Interest is why people leave PDP to APC and vice versa. Often times, this interest is first predicated on self.

If you have this understanding of politics as hinged on interest, you will understand why people insult others on nairaland, people have given GEJ and Buhari insults they will never hear anybody give their father because of interest.

Haven said this, remember that Nigeria belongs to all of us, we have no other country...Lets maintain peace and not allow APC or PDP throw this country into Sudanic experience.

Long live Naija.

He said and i quote ''The greatest tragedy in Life is not death but life without a purpose''

''When the purpose of a thing is not known, abuse is inevitable''

I will remeber him for these two powerful quotes
