If not Nigerians and their sense of 'multi-purpose', what's an election banner doing on the electric pole?







RIP, Mr. Raji.

1. Daar Communications Plc, acknowledges that Asiwaju Bola Tinubu is an outstanding political leader of unblemished character and integrity, as well as a leading public figure and opinion moulder who has made and continues to make immense, colossal and gargantuan contributions to the progress and development of the nation in general. And Lagos State in particular.

I thought them and their lawyer, ozokomhe, were grandstanding at some points? Now we know who's stronger.

BaddieKay:
see your mouth

They should shut up already!

It's so unfortunate that he had to take over from the most destructive predecessor the world has ever known.





Baba , God shall see you through.

StOla:
The world will always have dunces occupy it from time to time.

The greatest lesson from the Jonathan episode is that political aspirants should stop opting for moro.ns as their running mates in a bid to avoid clash of competing ambitions. Such moro.ns can end up succeeding their principals via the route of political succession.

If the above had been practised, the highest post Jonathan would have held is the post of father to his children.
Except the state took the welfare of the children into consideration and retrieved them from a mentally handicapped father who would only end up breeding community thieves.

. The world gave us a gargantuan effete as president.

No wonder she's conspicuously absent on this forum. So as the president, if I make her a minister , during pregnancy, she no go de come work?

In my place , we de appreciate kolanut shared at naming ceremony. Ber, do the needful.


Well, congratulations!

Tell me you are lying...

StOla:
Jonathan was born ready for the looting.

The only seating president in the world who claimed he set out to campaign for re-election, but ended up campaigning that thieves ought not be arrested and convicted and jailed for their crimes by a responsible government.

The future generations will sure hear about the man some in the criminal underworld know as Don Fortunato.

Many will come to the conclusion that he was the purest personification of daftness.

a mistake like Gej has never been made anywhere in the world. I pray God don't punish us with such leadership again- if we witness such again, Nigeria may cease to exist.

If Gej is not alive today, I might find it extremely hard to say 'RIP' to him. If this is what power means(using your office to steal everything), God I pray you don't give it to me.

What's the use of being a former president and your name is always called for the wrong reasons always? Fvck power in this case!

danmasani101:
Leaders of tomorrow indeed, Dan iska

bakada kunya.

obynoses:
knowing where the supporters come from is Caseless like your name. The truth remains that some services are not priced. In Lagos, pure water has a constant price of N10, so one does not have to price it. But in I.T, there is no price. It is not about supporting corruption but having a price for a brand. To computerize a Ministry can cost 100million or 2million depending on the company contracted. Likewise construction of road, it has no price. So the guy returned the money because he did not work for it. If he had worked for Jonathan or PDP, he would have taken the money.

pdp really wrecked this country.

princejayboss:
Well you can't eat your cake and have it ... Do we have another option? This administration was busy playing politics with virtually everything... Since we lost china and Russia .. US and Europe will not lift our embargo and want us to cut the size of our military personnel --- we don't have options than going to the wrong people..

The last administration gained a reasonable friendship with the Russians which help us in buy weapon from cezch republic.... Though some said we never bought one raffle... Lol but I know that January 2014 Nigeria bought weapons and tnx to Russia relationship,

I was in Prague Czech republic for a modification job on January 2014 and behold they (CEZCH) sold some military equipment to Nigeria, even daily newspapers carried the news in Prague (Jan. 30th daily Mladá fronta Dnes (MfD) .... You can verify.

I for a person with one Indian, four Israeli engineers were supposed to fix something for the company that sold the weapon to Nigeria---- the company that made the sale was (The Czech arms dealer Excalibur Group)
Below are the ones I can remember:
Modernized Soviet-made tanks T-72 M1 and 16 other vehicles
MRAP vehicles
Armored personnel carriers (APCs)

BMP armored infantry fighting vehicles
Rocket launchers
F7 NI jets and Other Jet types (can’t recall what they seems to be)
Airborne Sensors
Choppers


I was aware of A huge Antonov An-225 Mriya transport plane landed in Ostrava, north Moravia, to airlift the equipment to Nigeria which will have to do that batch by batch.
The fact whether they were all delivered in Nigeria is what I cannot say but from the pictures from the battle field indicate that they were delivered


Fast forward now... Our president messed Chinese deals, went and put mouth in Syria which made Russia change her structure, we also involved ourselves with shia/sunni matter just to keep Saudi happy

In fact our foreign policies are embarrassment.... We are losing it in our international politics.... Now we have found ourselves in no man's land.

Pakistan deal will cause us more damage than help in the coming months ahead considering the Syria peace talk....


Though if our leaders are sincere enough.... There are also tribe or state in Nigeria that produces riffle locally ... Why not integrate them just like the Pakistani did

brilliant post! I have learnt a lot from you today.


I heard what the last administration bought were junks or were never delivered.


My major worry is the Syria and the Shiite thing. I prefer we are on the side of Russia and china than being with the west and US.

sameer1212:
Hahahaha... Kai Yelabai.

Anyway,N.A should do the need full with her bastard Husband.

maza , Ya dai? Wallahi...

PROVACATEUR:
plz stop abusing our Sai Buhari

u are not serious

dikeigbo2:
Only in African country my dear,they always play god to their (slaves) citizens. That's why they cling on to power with their last blood.. Abasa

it's annoying.

chigoizie7:
Oga, don't say what u don't know,

Try that in US, ur car might even be bombed sef.

That is a security risk, the security operatives will do everything humanly possible to protect the lives of number 1 and number 2 citizens of their country, and be ever ready for the collateral damages(including that man's life).


Most times in U.S or U.K roads are blocked to avoid these kind things.

For naija here, if u see governor convoy,na to enter bush with your car, talk more of a VP.

To the security aids, this man must be upto some kind of harm for him to overtake the convoy, so, he deserves whatever he got.

you are right.

Angelberry:
Yes me....good evening

good evening! How was ur day?

honeygirl17:

Baba o! your girl is loyal

how far

Angelberry:
.

you!

Their leaders have always failed in countries where they have set fire burning, and they have the guts to call someone out.



We are winning the war and it's obvious.

Zenlife:
[s]Caution must be exercised. Now if a persistent grown up child requests from the parent to leave the home and is denied, more than likely the house will know no peace. As we all know, this is not the first call to secede. The recent threat by MASSOB to make the country ungovernable is a serious cause for concern and may be erroneous to file it as vain. Fortunately so far, BH is not exercised in the south, west or east, but it reared its head after the threat of making the nation ungovernable. I think it will be utter calamity and devastating to the nation if a terrorist activity by MASSOB commences. I seriously doubt if the Feds can handle both BH & MASSOB same time. Things will seriously fall apart and the center will not hold. Re: Moses / Egypt / Israel - ''let my people go'', same cry. Like Nnamdi Kanu, i doubt if all Jews embraced Moses's request.
The Nigerian civil war was and still a sour experience (a confrontational battle). It is a new day with terroristic approach to wars, with chemical and biological weapons, more access to resources, internet, a global village. The nation is presently panicky over rats, garri & Lassa, imagine what may happen if water, food, edible animals are compromised and unconsumable. Moses's liberation tools against Egypt eons ago were not unsimilar.
We must practically and objectively ask ourselves, do we stand more to gain or lose by keeping anyone or a group against their will and wish after all is said and done? You can imprison, maim or kill a leader, a voice, but its very difficult to kill a revolution. Is it worth the possible price to pay by been adamant against secession just because you want a one Nigeria that truly is unmanageable with corrupt leaders, looters and thieves, an inept judiciary where its supposed learned scholars (SAN), and lawyers deem it fit to wear BLONDE wigs, an inept and highly compromised EFCC, a house of senate and representative including ministers laden with thieves; ex-governors turn ministers been accused and querried by the states they governed of looting, stealing public funds with impunity; a president that appears to also be the minister of tourism or external affairs - home today, gone tomorrow as if scarred to confront and deal with pressing interior national issues - trying to change Africa, the world, when his country needs 'CHANGE', the slogan which helped bring him to power; a seeming clueless nation with frightened, disillusioned cowards as its citizen; a govt that can't even quell noise pollution nuisance by bars, music shops, music peddlers, churches, worship centres, air and noise pollution by factories approved and licensed by state to operate next door in residential communities (non existent or non enforced zoning laws) disturbing the public peace and rest with the cumulative effect of affecting next day production at work, students performance etc; Dirty uniformed police, ineffectual and irritatingly corrupt, bribe-taking with impunity, shameless, unbaked police force with drunken 'officers', with majority unable to speak a correct sentence in english, blinded to crime or lawlessness even under their nostrils. An abject irresponsible and corrupt govt with people down-trodden not to know right or left or when been used, manipuiated, exploited, f*ck'd or sucked.
A country where public markets & food sales usually is the filthiest and overcrowded, violating all health codes, human rights and public safety; A country where its leaders score F in public and resource management and utilization. A country where its 'leaders' have little or no clue of leadership or governance by their daily deeds and antecedents; little or no power/water supply; where the poor whose resources have been stolen by these so-called shameless leaders and gangsters are worshiped and praised by these same poor victims of the theft and corruption.
G.I.G.'s (Gangsters In Governments) who maim and kill to attain power and governance at all cost with the help of the poor, soon to be forgotten and abused when they attain power. A country that largely practise the exclusion of a people from governance. Unfortunately, the poor, the rich and masses of this religious but unspiritual church and mosque parading nation are ignorant of the social, economic, spiritual and political fact that a country where those that rule are least willing to do so, are usually best governed.

Nigerians, Nigerians, Nigerians, why will anyone with a sane mind not want out of such a zoo called Nigeria? A nation with little or nothing to offer her people besides cheap sugar-coated tongues and speeches, will do all it can not to lose any part of its exploitative, corrupt cake by denying anyone to secede. Simple economics!

If you wanna go, you go. If you wanna stay, you stay. Must we be one Nigeria?

If there is war, those in govt won't fight or suffer it, they & their families will be the 1st ones out of the country enjoying their stolen loot.

Let justice/peace reign! [/s]

when you see a post that's this long, you know it's written by a bigoted coward and an iPod member.

Miscreants!

African leaders are headless.

But the ooni has been seen mending fences since he came on board . Why this act against his aids again? Too bad!

Cowards, we dare you to do that. We call your bluff, miscreants.

We know where those who support corruption in Nigeria mostly come from.

GworoChewinMaga:
If you must know, the Pakistani military has very strong ties with the Nigerian Army.

This tie goes back to the post civil war years and was initiated by the Murtala regime which refused to demobolize the bulging Nigerian military after the civil war. The Nigerian Army had over 250,000 soldiers as at 1975 (25 times that a decade ago) which it maintained with 45% of the national budget. The US and UK refused to sell additional weapons to Nigeria only on the condition they reduce the numerical strength of the army. Murtala did not bulge and then opened military ties with Pakistan.

The Pakistani military alliance is thus a partnership of necessity.

The only reason this Govt is reopening ties with Pakistan is because nobody wants to sell weapons to them anymore.

The govt has screwed up ties with the Russians over their alliance with Saudi Arabia over Syria and the Chinese have also rescinded all ties with Nigeria since this administration renegaded on all bilateral agreements signed by the previous administration. Obama won't allow EU or even their allies in Ukraine supply us nadder since the balkanization agenda is still ongoing.

So in a way, this move is out of sheer desperation.

I wonder why most of our injured soldiers are always taken to Pakistan- it all goes back to thus history you just highlighted.

princejayboss:
Great brother.... Before I go on to respond you.... First am impressed.... What do you study and where are you based...

Bro my point is JF-17 is more like a lie called F-35.... Though am rushing out to catch a plane but I will ask you.

From your comment I know that you knows jet fighters but I personally enhance few physics capabilities in this birds.... I saw this jet in Dubai show .... I was part the team that did an enhancement program on F15 eagle..... I had time study this jet called JF-17... Most capabilities are not realistic...

Now.... How do you think that a bird with more like a single engine that reaches speed of mg 1.6 can do all this as stated. They have contradicting themselves with the exact type of missiles it has... One today another tomorrow.... Or is it the cockpit they said is the best.... Look sometimes radar system cannot just be the only hope for a fighter pilot.

Bro yes its light weight and cheap...but as yourself, if really its so cheap and has the said capabilities.... Why are they producing just 15 a year?..... You has it not been in the military arsenal of every country in their region?... Alot of lies where said

Talking about air superiority in terms of air kills and flight combat time..... Am not impressed with the kill ratio when compared to the crashes while on flight have witnessed with JF-17...... For me F -15 Eagle (alll the enhanced models) has and will continue to rule the sky till china learns how to do things without being greedy.... Russia learnt their lessons, now they are doing great birds ... If only Russia had a flourishing economy... They would rule the sky .... US is on decline.


Bro when I land I would go in details step by step why to me the bird is a crap...

You are indeed the kind of people we need in Nairaland... Fellas with content in their head... Am a physicist (Ph.D.), an igbo man.. works with three different countries defense ministries......

So much respect from me

spot-on!
Physicist, what do you say about this partnership with Pakistan?

Nigeria is working!
