methow-man,
i sincerely say amen to that as that remains the truth of our lives

she must say something at least to tell nigerians that she is still living.
on the other hand, the next news will be federal govt's recognition of her family because she is seeking notice.
that not withstanding, calls for forgiveness because among every other thief that had ruled nigeria, her late husband was singled out for probe.

all we need is steady powe supply in nigeria and there is no short cut to that.
development in all ramifications depends on power suply.
if govt in bent on steady increase in the price of fuel, one will be forced to ask, why? what do we need all these money for since none of our roads is been taken care of, nothing is happening on the power sector, security is not there.
yar adua campeigned with power supply and it is assumed that nigerians has done their side by selecting or electing him, we shld been asking him how long more we have to wait.
at least he has mentioned a specific date (january 1) for a hike in the price of fuel, why not a specific date in giving us electricity and putting our roads into place with our own money.
from the look of things, yar adua is threading the same part as his predecessor(obj) the suggestion for third term is already in place an if that fails, a selection of a trusted group will be arranged for back-ups in government while he will prepare a long write up tagged my power story.
what a shame?

with all ribadu's tu-tu ha-ha, the big question is; did corruption go down or up in the 8 years? if we want say the truth, the answer is up and this is the price we have to pay for embracing selected justice.

untill nigeria and nigerians begin to see the likes of bode george, tony annenih, obj, chris uba and andy uba, adedibu etc as corrupt and see reasons to probe them, it will be difficult to win the war on corruption.

prominent among them was and is the confirmed case of money laundary in the usa which involves andy uba and the presidential jet and till date, ribadu choose to keep that aside by terming that a civil case. it is time nigerians began to ask what is civil about money laundary.

i would like looking at the situation from the angle of sparing the living devils who are today out to testify the goodness of their dead colleague.
in the first place, the probe of abacha had no good intentions because as long as nigerians are concerned, babangida was involved so why making the living ibb a saint? the worst type of justice is selective justice and that is what obj represents.
abacha was a military president but if we look at the rate of killings during his time and that of obj, we will simply call abacha a saint.
why will a whole attorney general(bola ige) die without trace till date- that was obj's joke.
odi massacre could not happen when abacha was there.
the state of our roads and security of nigeria during the two administrations can equally support the idea of making abacha a saint.

real men don't tell stories. obj is telling us today his power stories which symbolizes failures. he has more stories to tell as it relates to our roads, security and the sale of govt properties.
we will equally be happy to hear his story of moji- his son's wife now that he has turned into a story teller. he shld also not forget to tell us his third term story, his april polls stories and the odi massacre stories. wonderful story teller

rome was not built in a day then how long did rome take to? eternity?
give him sometime, accepted but how long? at 48 years of nigeria, we are still saying rome was not built in a day.
the only way rome could be built over night is allowing our rulers to turn into trilonaires after one month on seat.
cotonou, mali, senegal, cameroun south africa, ghana and every other countries of the world both richer and poorer believe that they can build their own rome in a day for the interest of the citizens.
nigeria till date remains the highest buyers of electricity generating plants - what a shame?
United Arab Emirates was once borrowing money from nigeria and today every ruler in nigeria has investment there and it is serving as a must visit country as soon as you become a ruler in nigeria yet rome was not built in a day.
malaysia got her first palm fruit from nigeria and today malaysia is the highest palm oil producers in the world. yet nigerians are still saying rome was not built in a day.
please tell nigerians how long it takes to build rome.
a whole full eight years was not enough to make a tangible move towards a steady power supply and obj is still telling nigerians his story. one year gone on yar adua, only reasonable thing he has done is speech of hope on the pages of our newspapers, an embecile has already started a third term agenda for him which will soon take over the polity of nigeria-rome was not built in a day.
i pray this topic to end here because it is a sad news to humanity that a man who had every free hands he needed as a president and petrolium minister for eight years ended up with his power story.

my power story - this is enough to discourage us.
if someone can have the opportunity to be the presient/petrolium minister for eight years and is still not ashamed to tell nigerians stories.
well, he maybe looking for 500 years to fix electricity

obj shld return athe funds he collected from abacha's family so that all thieves shld recieve equal treatments.

madamkoko,
what are they coming to exploit? oil?
what have we been doing with the oil?
don't u think that gold shld be given to those who know the value of gold?
are u saying it will be bad for us to trade in whatsover the americans want from us including human beings to get power supply, security and possibly good roads?
i know uae(dubai) jordan and kuwait as examples of countries where america have interest and they are all living good lives, pls reffer me to countries where americans are exploiting the countries living the citizens are suffering like we are here in nigeria.

over age coupled with the fire from platini is the name of the game.
is that not another modern way of recism?
well, change is constant and for the europeans they will not find it difficult to reverse their decission when it begin to yield a negative result

incomplete list.
where is Iyabo obasanjo-bello who is wanted for kidnap in the usa?
pls adjust the list to accomondate her name to avoid been sued for ommission of her names by her lawyer.

to steal our money build his personal library and rebuild his ottah farm and buy all govt properties in nigeria did not take him time. to thief our money enrich his bank accounts from 20k to what i don't know was no problem, what will be a big problem is to take our own money solve our problems.
he is a common thief and that is what we will call him.
no appologies.
if ait reports, he will send them packing from abuja and bola ige talk assasins will visit him.
his daughter inlaw go for contract, he will tell her na give and take. fat old fool dey eat small pickin them food. make he go deposit himself for motherless babies homes so that they will be preparing cerilac for him. no wonder he go join school. maybe he will context their local govt chairman.

madamkoko,
if usa are coming to exploit and commit attrocities against us, then what have we been committing against ourselves all these while they were not arround?
do u for once thing there will be a us millitary base for two years in nigeria without power supply? don't u know our roads and security system will definitely improve if not for our interest, it will be for them to have chance to exploit us very well.
if u are or u know anyone who is a terrorist, tell him/her to change otherwise, the person will be picked.
if the usa are keeping innocent people in prison, then tell me the number of people wasting away and possibly dying innocently in nigerian prisons.
if u are real, u must confess to the truth that usa as we speak, is the best country in the world where u can talk democracy, fairness of the judiciary and human right and that is what make them the best.
one thing i hate about us is hypocrsy. if u can be fair, no rich man in nigeria or most normal persons in nigeria are either dreaming to be in us or have even been there.
how come most of us here have investments over there but will turn back and say don't mind them.
madam, i would want to reserve most of my comments here because of ur title.
pls american shld come with their barracks and those ships use in slave trade. we are seriously waiting for them.

at least AIT can celebrate 12 months of not been beaten up by the SSS

Debosky,
one more point i would want to clear here for u.
it is all about obj and ottah farm because that was how the eight years was controlled.
almost all the major decissions were taken solely by obj and ottah hosted more presidential/party meetings than aso rock and other places.
to back this up, the idea of an elected president of nigeria becoming the petrolium minister at the same time was a perssonal decission for his personal reasons.
the idea of hand picking almost all of the politicians in our various political offices before and during april polls was personal.
the efcc in question has won several awards since its inception for her perfect jobs so it is surprising that none of u is ready to tell us what is wrong with obj and his daughter talking to efcc - our only hope or are we all coming into agreement now that efcc is a political tool used to witch hunt and is still been used for witch hunting?

are we afriad of our oil? ok since the oil dey here waiting happen? abeg make them come take this oil self. is it possible that this barracks come with slave ships because i need to get out of this place by all means.
if i see their ship, i will arrrest myself and my family, f i a m, usa here we come.

mad men are not good to be conductors to avoid too much waving.

what on earth has he done?

give him time and we are only talking. we gave babangida 13 years, abacha arround 5 years, obj 8 solid years, yar adua will get his 8 year plus the intending extension of 12 years to make it 20 hope that will be enough or do we let him be till 2050.

just trace the sick man's accounts within the few months that he has been operating germany, there u will see wonders.
that was the best thing obj did, buying a presidential jet that will be carrying enough funds in cash.

na the same people. obj / yar adua during military and now obj / yar adua in civilian.
these two families are the best things that have happened to nigeria.

families packed with enough resources and abilities to lead nigeria into our promise land.

it is my prayer that nigerians will give them more time at least, by the time it gets to kola's turn, nigeria will be better than america.

Debosky,
u said yar adua is banking on. how long is he going to bank on these projects? how many of our past presidents had banked on uncompleted projects and how far did they go? did obj inherit incomplete projects and how did he bank on them.
the masses are dying on daily basses and people are starving to death and we are here banking. how is yar adaua and how did he come from to bank on these projects and whose mandate is he?

afam,
most of us who do not have sense or points to make have been able to point to our roads, the state of our security, power supply, elections and level of corruptions in different levels of our government since 1999, what are ur own points.
if time is not taken our obj infected intellectuals will point to the timely removal of okonjo iweala from the ministry of finance, the promotion of coperate thugs like adedibu, chris uba, andy uba, bode george, tony annenih and a host of others including the wonders of seducing his daughter inlaw with federal contracts as the better side of holy obj.

if the idea of asking him how he ruled is a bad one, why did he probe abacha's family? from the day obj restricted his probe agenda to the abachas was the day i rejected his motives.

if the ibos have generally accepted that orji uzo kalu is a criminal as alleged, what was the crime of Chris Ngige?

afam,
now that obj does not have a son in his house that trust him, why don't u apply to be adopted by the wonderful father that u could not have?

basket mouth of a night of a thousand laughs says if the slave traders come back to nigeria today, things will be easier for them now than before.
from history, we were mearnt to understand that the slave traders had to use different means to get slaves then including bribing the chiefs and forcing their victims into slavery.
today, i think many will surrender themselves to the the slave masters especially if they are coming or going to the usa. what do u think?

a step forward, two steps backward and i say yes to that.
look at the state of our roads and go back to years before and compare. look at the security system. look at power supply. then look at the level of corruption.
we are really not moving forward.

naijaking1 ,
u v just written a summary of what afam represents.
but why are we blaming an embecile born and brought up in a dark environment. he is so used used to darkness.
u can only say something is better when there is comparison.
the man afam is yet to taste life outside nigeria and it only when such a dark brain washed fool taste something other than nigeria, that he will be in a better frame of mind to say we are coursed.
when u can drive for hours in the night without remembering to on ur car light because the street lights are doing the job. when the roads are so smooth that potholes are eyesour.
when u can live in a country for ten years without knowing the name of the power supply company.
afam,
if u are not paid for doing what u are doing, tell me how benin, togo, ghana, senegal just to mention but a few are enjoying steady power supply while obj is still telling us his power story-fools like u will say their size. then tell me why India, usa and china are enjoying power supply.
my dear u are of a coursed generation. nigeria has all it will take to be like other countries but the high level of embecility here has turned most low reasoning idiots like u into tools. no wonder obj was able to use ur brother his own state.
travel out and see the level of backwardness here.

bad blood

abdurrazaq,
can i start by informing u that anything that has to do with a president or former president/former petrolium minister as well as the chairman BOT of the rulling pdp in nigeria is not and and can never be personal or family matter.
what kind of lessons are nigerians going to learn from their able and immoral leader.
be informed that a man whose house is on fire does not chase rats. be informed that a man who cannot take care of or handle his family will never lead nigeria to any good destination.
Afam,
i always know your ability and understanding. i always know u are fake. i v come to terms that you are not who u claim.
now tell me how long it takes to plan and implement. could it be why obj was asking for third term? are u aware that the threat of third term agenda is raising its urgly head once again? nigerians are yet to confirm the man in yar adua and some knowledgeable men like you are calling for tenure extension for him when we are yet to say anything about his first tenure. someone somewhere has confirmed him for first, second and then requestion for third term for a man who is yet to win court case.
if nothing is wrong with obj, what do u have to say about third term?
this project that will finish in 2009, started when? and why then? this power project was the same project obj campeigned with in 1999 and 2003. is it worth saying that yar adua campeigned with power supply and one year is out. we will wait to see him in his seventh year start unnecessary projects that will be completed in the year 2050 and we will be asked to give him time to see off his projects.this same yar adua in question was brought and forced on us in his inordinate ambittion to get a cover up. and we were mearnt to understand that he is an upright man by the same obj. based on that assumption, nigerians still believe everything yar adua is saying till tomorrow.
Afam(wole soyinka abi Gani), people must learn to have plans for nigeria and nigerians before they start thinking about been nigerian president and not to waste  seven years in office confused and stealing our money only to start foolish projects five months to go.
if the power projects and contracts will be completed in 2009, when will the roads contracts, security contracts and everyother contracts issued during the 8 years of madness be completed? i think an answer is important here.
tell me who your friends are and i will tell u who u are. who are obj's friends. please tell me what u think about such names as, Adedibu, bode george, tony annenih, chris and andy uba. these were the most popular names during the 8 years of political madness.
my dearest afam, tell us in your wiseness, the result of the war against corruption in nigeria within the past 8 years. i guess corruption is on the increase?
please tell me the moral justification of a president coming to imo state to tell the masses that it was either charles ugwu for governor or no other person from pdp not interested in the choice of the people.
afagi, what happened to the ptdf matter that was gazzeted with hours just to frustrate the presidential ambition of atiku?
what about the case of mony laundary involving andy uba and the presidential jet.
gentle man afam, even with my position and stance, i can play your role better than u are doing because u lack facts. u are simply a clueless paid labourer.
u are always saying give him time or didn't we give enough time to ur obj to prove his worth. now it is give him time to yar adua, if i may ask, are there any people more petient than nigerians? we are all saying that at 48 years, with what we have in mineral and human resources, we deserve electricity, good roads, security and some other good things of life. people are not born to be proud with suffering. if u do not need good things of life, we need them and whosoever that is giving us that is doing it in the sense that it is our rights not previlege.

are we surposed to answer this mad man on this issue.
the seas will never swallow anyone that did not go close to it.
the same efcc that caught alams, kalu etc and we congratulated them, why now? or have they changed the course?
she is alleged to , so let her go prove her innocence.
is it a way of saying some nigerians need not to be accused or questioned over anything even or no matter how involved they are?

like baba like hear and do am.
a goat will never give birth to a snake.
na so the thing dey start.
at least this will divert our attention from things of national importance.
since the birds have learnt to fly without landing, the hunters will definitely start shooting ithout guessing.

mamajama,
she is innocent and who is guilty?
well, i know is efcc that is guilty. no wonder she has been granted bail immediately.
please in a simple language tell us the meaning of innocent. and please tell us how u are going to prove her innocence.
paid labourer.
if u lack what to say better be a good listener as it is not a must that u post something here.

the then president (ob, ) was from the prisons too so what is the difference.

she is looking like those criminals those criminals we see on crime fighters. no matter how the matter take end, atleast, we now know and believe that the rich also cry

afam,
no matter how much u are paid, obj can never be greater than nigeria.
the man was clever in selecting his own people otherwise the story would have been a different one.
if u are familiar with the achievements of the past administration, tell us the difference between the states of our roads, security system, power supply and then equate them with the funds spent with the past eight years.
obj told us nigerian press are not good so while telling his power stories through them now.
he shld go to the panel and tell the stories.
iyabo is tired of running. they are good people so why is she running away from her father's efcc.
as long as there is God in heaven, obj must pay.
one day, we will be mearnt to know why okonjo iweala was removed from the finance ministry.
he was lawless that he select and reject at will. i want congratulate former abia state governor for his foresight over this monster - obj.

a white truth but i have to add here that govt is not helping matters too.
asian countries for instance, there is steady power supply that any amount can afford you a company.
there are credit facilities both at high and low places which makes it easier for beginers to start.
what is our govt doing here? they have convienced everybody that the only way to make it is to be in govt. this is why doctors, lawyers, engineers and other proffessionals have today left their proffession to go after oplitics and the truth is that the game is paying and encourages intending and sudden politicians.
in nigeria, to open common barbing salon, u need a generator unline in other areas where a mirror and clippers starts a barbing saloon for u.
govt shld change the orientation and the nigerians that i know will do better than most other countries of the world.
