Politics › Re: Is Politics A Profession by citizenY(m): 11:02am On Sep 11, 2009
YES YES

Tell me the profession of the following persons- Kenny Martins, Maitama Sule, Ogundokun, Bamanga Tukur, MAntu,
etc etc, perhaps we should have a sub section for this post, Let us list tha big boys in ploitics and mention one thriving business that they have established in this country.

Every Nairalander should cover his locality.

The ones in my locality claim to be farmers or industrialists, some are professional chairmen and board members in companies where they have no shares-- govt parastatals. Thy cannot even harness the simplest option available in their environment to make a living.

Imagine the former Gongola State --- after all these years, nothing, chairman business roundtable , ambassador, vminister/vice chancellor , air vice marshal etc etc, nothing for ground, Allthese people have not been able to milk a cow and produce youghort. Nobody says you must farm just milk the cow.

So politics is a profession. QED

@Eziachi,

If within these 50 years, you have still remained in Nigeria and we are living together, somebody must have told you the home truth-
so people with views like yours must be among the minority. So blow your hot air, reason will prevail, Nigeria go Survive

He was packaged as an enemy of the people, almost demonised, so that many cried, ‘Crucify him, crucify him!’ But the issue of resource control, which is now synonymous with fiscal federalism, is not about any man. It is a clamour that is connected to the soul of Nigeria, and which will continue to haunt it until it is resolved.
The agitation continues…

No wonder the man controlled the resources into his pockets and una praise singers dey look anyanya

[b]@Mr. Ellyptical,

Go to Ladipo, ASPamda/trade fair, Balogun, Kano ,Ibadan,Kaduna and Abuja and conduct a referendum.
We should look for permanent solutions to the issues you have raised.

Your brothers in those places I have mentioned will throw you out, if you dare mention your mission. By the way
our problem is bad leadership and a docile citizenry. Some are docile in exchange for government looking the other way as they smuggle, bribe and forge their way through the ports with their tokunboh fridge, cars , and counterfeit products and fake drugs. Others as they default on taxes and break all laws. Others rig elections and connive with bank managers in insider dealings and unsecured loans. THAT IS THE PROBLEM.

We need to enforce all laws and avoid breaking them by creating an alert and law abiding society where government is made to be accountable and the only way you can do that is to be law abiding in the first instance and additionally protest nad not tolerate any wrong either by government, governed or any political instituion for that amatter.

This is the way out. What makes you think others have no grievances against your people? Nigerians have for so long been subjected to the low taste and greed of others by way of fake drugs, products, tokunboh everything , armed robbery, 419 , low political culture (anything goes) and currently kidnapping, all in the name of business and trading.[/b]

@emyah,,

Very fertile imagination and honestly, i admire your effort.
The gospel truth is that we are all hostages to each other.
Go home and ask your uncles to conduct a referendum on your
proposal and you will find very few people in your own line
Go to Lagos, Abuja, Kano Ibadan etc and sample the views of your kinsmen.

Your appeal to the West/Christianity is not logical and your conclusions are rather
wild. Even your senior brothers in MASSOB do not have such fertile imaginations.
Evidently,MASSOB is not making any headway and I do not see people with
your comportment going beyond Nairaland.


Na today, Nigeria don pass that stage, we hear you.

Business › Re: Sanusi Canvasses Islamic Banking by citizenY(m): 11:35am On Sep 03, 2009
To some extent,Banking is just like insurance, GTB or First Bank, Royal Exchange or Crusader.
I really do not see why there is a lot of aggression against Islamic Banking, after all many people
patronised the wonder banks in Ibadan and such places. Put your money where your mouth ( read GREED grin grin grin grin) is and keep your powder dry.

All this whining and prejudice will take us nowhere. We need solutions to the greed of our trusted ones (Bankers , politicians and businessmen) and relief from anywhere is welcome. The present system is not reliable and we all know the origin of this banking system, please these prejudiced people are making reasonable debate on this matter impossible.

Some people have formed the habit of exhibiting ignorance and prejudice
in this forum and it is not good for healthy discourse. Every matter that comes
up must is immediately turned into a north/south muslim / christian debate and exchange
of words and this eventually over takes the topic.

Can"t we ever envisage somebody coming up to work solely for the good of this country?
Views are like a.ss holes we all have them but i think others have these holes all over including their foreheads,and brains.

If they were truly champions of their religions or ethnic groups or professions for that matter, why were they not appointed to head the CBN? Banking has been bastardized in this country and people are pontificating. Your money is working against you ten times over. You are holding the wrong end of the stick and these fat cat bank managers and brief case shunting businessmen are having a field day.

With these revelations, can you imagine what has been happening in the Nigerian Stock Exchange where these guys have been exchanging batons under the supervision o of the godmother of them all , MADAM oBAMA tRANSCORP?
Business › Re: Sanusi Canvasses Islamic Banking by citizenY(m): 11:26am On Sep 02, 2009
I[b] really do not see
the fears of those against Islamic banking where the
operators of the present system have proved to be unreliable , not only
in Nigeria but elsewhere. Any system that ties the loan to the fortunes
and future of both parties will surely make each party alive to its responsibility.

To those prejudiced against anything Islam, i say good luck, after all Christian
values abhor usury and such vices and this is the system in place spiced and greased
by the usual Nigerian factors, greed, nepotism etc. That is why the interest rates
so high nd money can only be lent to money doublers and gamblers[/b]
Politics › Re: Niger-delta Militants Are Ungoldly People Says Gov Isa Yuguda. by citizenY(m): 3:37pm On Aug 31, 2009
I am of the opinion is that the ND problem is the fault of their elders who have been in league with
government and the oil companies in one form or the other  over the years. The degradation in that
region did not start today. They looked the other way and "chopped" and "cleaned" their mouths with fat
and juicy joints of contracts and whatever positions were extended to them, to the detriment of their kith and kin.
This loot can be traced to the GRAs in Port Harcourt, and Warri, Lekki, Ikeja, VI and Ikoyi.

These "sharks only drive to waterside and enter boat/canoe to go bury their people  for waterside. They come back
and drive back to Lagos or wherever to live happily ever after. Any favours due to ND is hijacked before it enters the creeks.

Today, these young men eye don open and they know their oppressors but they are all in the creeks protesting and these
pretenders/ vultures are at it again. The young men have no access to ABUJA. Those geriatrics and people with high flying
double barrel names  that do not have correlation with their original culture cannot control them. The boys have decided to
take their destiny in their hands and confront Nigeria . We must listen to them  and reach out to them in very constructive ways.

All past leaders in government at all levels have failed them. The money has been stolen, some wasted and some just literally turned
into ashes by the crooks thatI were rigged into office with voter figures way above what is in the voters register.

It is the same scenario all over he country, ADULT  AND ELITE DELINQUENCY  , Q.E.D

I am very glad somebody is asking this question. \for quite some time, I have been musing over this issue.

We all know the low productive potential of the economy - a mono cultural , low industrial ( by way of volume and technology),
comatose ,energy starved , import based affair with the attendant consequences- low grade production below established capacity
and mass unemployment. we cannot refine out crude for local use, our steel industry cannot produce flat sheets, the textile industry
is in coma. The GSM is the only thriving sector, followed by the flour mills with their flour, spaghetti,indomie and gala!!!!! and of course pure water.

I AM ALWAYS AMAZED WHEN THESEI READ THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT ON POINTBLANKNEWS:-

' Share and earnings falsification, manipulation of growth and stability indicators are being fingered as the reason for the removal of some Nigeria’s
high profile banking operators at the weekend, ''


THIS IS ENOUGH TO PUT ALL THOSE SUPER MANAGING DIRECTORS IN JAIL, IF NIGERIA IS WORKING
