That was quite too far... But I like it.

You need to read about Zimbabwe!


And their useless Zimbabwe dollars.

OMG!

Inflation will kill off the country if that happens. Monetary policy is a slightly dicey thing.

Did I just see 22,000 students? How can a primary school have 22,000 students.

I wonder how their assembly ground will be and how many students per class.

I think they need to split the school into 22 different schools. Say school A, B, C....

You need smaller numbers to teach effectively.

The biggest case they have to fight is his charisma, kanu is highly charismatic and its hard to fight.

“Nnamdi Kanu is holding people to ransom, bringing economic activities to a standstill, holding what will look like a mini rally. None of that is happening in any part of this country. All the leaders in the South-East have said yes we have concerns but the way you are going about it is wrong.

This is what kanu did, where did you she kill Mr A, kill Mr B.

Nothing is bad as bloodshed and that what the northern are so guilty of. They kill

Nigeria lack transparency and that has been a big issue.

The people we sent to the upper house and lower house will never ask these questions because they have been blind folded with cash.

So after the medical panel what next?

You think they will tell you the president is not fit to rule?

Hehehe, Nigeria is in for a long thing!

What has Nigeria turn into? A crusade ground for same old failed people?

The names are still same. Same problematic leaders we have always had. If we don't wiser up as a nation and support someone who is not a member of these failed generation, then we are far from a better Nigeria.

Now how do I get this to front page? Seun and lala

If you been flying Arik recently, you will know they have been messing up. Now someone has to pay!

There was tension at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, MMIA, Lagos State on Tuesday as a fight broke out between an Arik manager and some angry passengers.

Arik had reportedly delayed their flights to Johannesburg, South Africa for 3 days without notice when one of the enraged passengers approached the manager, demanding an explanation.

In a video that has already gone viral online, a fight ensued between them as other passengers took advantage and tried to let off anger by joining in the rift.

This is coming barely a week after stranded Arik Airline passengers were forced to sleep on the floor while waiting at the MMIA.

Some were said to have slept on the floor overnight as their flights were either not mentioned or cancelled for no cogent reason from the management.

Let this corruption fight continue. Is this a fight or victimization. So people like Amaechi, Tinubu and Fashola were never ex governors?

The Buharis and their insincerity. It will backfire one day.

The Buharis are now forming sherif in town, attacking anyone who challenges them. They should not forget this is Nigerian politics, the next move is always unknown. They have decided to bite saraki and Ekweremadu, now it's Fayose. I will be smiling when the user and lower chamber plans an impeachment.

Play your game like chess....

Something Strange Is Happening in the Southwest

By Azuka Onwuka

The killing of the early morning street evangelist, Mrs Eunice Olawale Elisha, in Kubwa, Abuja two weekends ago was the final point that made me conclude that something strange and inexplicable has happened to the Yoruba in the past one year.

Two Saturdays ago, The Punch broke the news that Mrs Elisha, wife of Pastor Olawale Elisha of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, left her home around 5.30 a.m. with a megaphone to preach in the neighbourhood as she did every morning. But she never returned. At first the report was that she was butchered, her head cut off and placed on top of her Bible. But later the story from the police was that she was killed but was not decapitated.

It was a shock to the nation, especially coming a month after a woman in Kano State and a man in Niger State were killed for religious reasons.

But the greater surprise came from the Southwest. There seemed to be an understanding reached by Yoruba not to discuss the killing of Mrs Elisha, a fellow Yoruba, in the Northern city of Abuja. Posts and radio comments about her death were systematically avoided by many Southwest people. Rather many Southwest people were busy discussing Cristiano Ronaldo and Euro trophy or the trial of Senate President, Bukola Saraki. By midweek, the focus shifted to Senators Dino Melaye and Oluremi Tinubu and the transition in the United Kingdom. Some women even embarked on street protest over the allegations that Senator Melaye used some strong words against Senator Tinubu. The same week a Nigerian woman (specifically a fellow Yoruba woman) was slain in Abuja simply for preaching in her neighbourhood and it was treated as if it was of no consequence!

Before Elisha’s killing, similar things had happened that surprised me. First was the 22nd anniversary of the June 12 election last year. I was in the Southeast and Port Harcourt that period. So I could not certainly gauge the way June 12 anniversary was marked in the Southwest. But I read the papers, watched the TV and monitored the online media. It was clear to me that there was a lull in the remembrance. But coming about two weeks after the inauguration of President Muhammadu Buhari, I felt maybe the Southwest was still engulfed in the euphoria of being instrumental to the emergence of the new government.

But when June 12 came this year and went by without any fanfare in the Southwest, I was puzzled. Since 1999 when democracy returned in Nigeria, there had been an argument, championed by the Southwest, that June 12 rather than May 29 should be observed as Democracy Day, because it was the day in 1993 when “true democracy” was instituted in Nigeria. All Southwest states declared June 12 a public holiday and held elaborate parades and rallies, and made memorable speeches about June 12, democracy and the sacrifice of Chief MKO Abiola.

As if that was not enough, on July 7, which was the death anniversary of Abiola, it was all silence. Unlike in the past, what I saw was a team led by Admiral Ndubuisi Kanu and Dr Joe Odumakin, laying a wreath on Abiola’s grave this year. During the anniversary of the killing of Kudirat Abiola on June 7, it was the same attitude. None of the Southwest leaders identified with the ceremony.

That was not all.

In March there was an ethnic clash between the Yoruba and Northerners at the Mile 12 market in Lagos. It got the same treatment of silence.

In May there was a report that some herdsmen invaded a village in Ekiti State and killed two people. It was also all silence in the Southwest. The Southwest, however, found its voice when a day later the governor of Ekiti, Mr Ayo Fayose, in his exuberant and dramatic fashion, addressed the hunters in the state and urged them to shoot anybody who tried to attack the state again. Many Southwest people descended on Fayose: the same people who kept quiet when a Southwest state was invaded and some fellow Yoruba people killed!

The same scenario has played out on the lopsided appointments made by Buhari. In private discussions, you could hear the anger of Southwest people over the skewed appointments, but there seems to be an unwritten code not to raise it in public discussions.

However, the one that has been most prominent is the issue of restructuring of Nigeria. For many decades, especially since the callous annulment of the June 12, 1993 election by General Ibrahim Babangida, supported by General Sani Abacha, the battle cry from the Southwest has been “restructuring and true federalism”. Till they died, Chief Michael Ajasin sang it, Chief Abraham Adesanya chanted shouted it, and Chief Bola Ige amplified it. When democracy returned in 1999, Chief Bola Tinubu never made any speech without mentioning restructuring. Mr Babatunde Fashola, Mr Rauf Aregbesola, Dr Kayode Fayemi, Prof Yemi Osinbajo and others from the Southwest said repeatedly that without restructuring, Nigeria would not progress. I agreed fully with them.

But then came May 29, 2015 and Buhari and Osinbajo were sworn in as President and Vice President, with Fashola and Fayemi as minsters, Mr Femi Gbajabiamila as Majority Leader at the House of Representatives and Aregbesola and others as governors. The issue of restructuring has been met with silence from the Southwest leaders and followers, especially in the ruling All Progressives Congress. Only the voices of members of the Afenifere like Mr Yinka Odumakin, Senator Femi Okurounmu, Chief Ayo Adebanjo are still heard consistently asking for restructuring of the federation or implementation of the decisions of the 2014 national conference.

One would think that having come into power, the Southwest leaders of the APC would be in a vantage position to initiate the process of restructuring the federation, given that it is in the APC’s manifesto. But the new argument now is that restructuring is not the most pressing issue now; that the country needs to be stabilized first. What a lame excuse! Hitherto, the argument was that the country was unstable because of lack of restructuring.

What is difficult to understand is what led to this new belief in the Southwest that complaining about the killing of a fellow Southwest person is tantamount to opposing the government led by Buhari and Osinbajo. Definitely, there is no connection between the two. It is said that it is only a very close person that can tell you that you have mouth odour. It does not mean hate or opposition.

Nigeria has been ruled from independence by people with hearing problem. You need to shout for them to hear. When about 500 were killed in Agatu, Benue State in February, the government said nothing. But when Ukpabi-Nimbo in Enugu was invaded April, there was an uproar. And for the first time, the presidency commented on the menace of the Fulani herdsmen.

Similarly in late May, four people were killed in Niger State for alleged blasphemy against Islam. Not much was said about it. A few days later an Igbo woman was killed in Kano over the same blasphemy against Islam. Hell was raised. The presidency, Kano State government and the police reacted, announcing that the perpetrators had been arrested.

In addition, many girls had been reported to be abducted and forcefully converted to Islam. It was when Ese Oruru’s case was raised to a high pitch in March that she was released to her parents. Other girls in the same condition were also released.

These issues did not show any opposition to Buhari, Islam or the North. Such uproar was raised when a political billboard that read “Bring Back Our Goodluck” appeared in Abuja: a parody of Bring Back Our Girls. Dr Goodluck Jonathan ordered the board to be brought down. It was raised when Chief Olusegun Obasanjo seized the official vehicles of his estranged Vice President Atiku Abubakar. The vehicles were immediately released.

Some Southwest people may get indignant and call for my hide. But I have bought myself a body armour and helmet from Hephaestus, stronger than the one he made for Achilles for the Trojan War. If I could write that the Yoruba are the No 1 in the world in religious tolerance and write other similar positive analyses about the southwest and they sounded good in the ear of every Southwest person, it should also not be out of place for me to raise questions when something strange is happening in the Southwest.

The Yoruba are not known to keep quiet in the face of injustice or aberration. I don’t know what has happened in the Southwest. If anybody knows, please let him enlighten me.

Broken glass by sia

Just wondering... Did it take Britain 50 years plus to achieve Brexit, how come its taking Biafra that long? Something is wrong somewhere...

.... And he said the problem with the north is that the leaders has failed them....

Let me laugh in japanese first, hukhukhuka...

The north is over dependent on the government and thay is the biggest problem they have. The government has to do everything for them. Stay there and be waiting.

Is this the pedophile yerima?

Some of these pints are correct, but politics is still in the primitive era in Nigeria, there is no way you rule such a jungle nation without using some jungke skill to achieve a deaired reault. What then is power for, if not to be used to achieved the final goal of a beter nation? Lets just look at the end of all he did..and let it justify the means.

That moment when a kettle calls a pot black! Haha haha. Stupid people

That moment when a criminal is accusing anothe criminal. Lolz.

Kashamu (Ogun East Senatorial District) on Tuesday urged the Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Ayo Fayose, to stop the mudslinging against Aisha Buhari, the wife of President Muhammadu Buhari, and face the allegations of corruption against him.


The governor had stated that the Aisha Buhari mentioned in the Halliburton bribery scam, and shown to have transferred the sum of $170,000 from her account to an account with Williams Jefferson as the beneficiary, is the same as the Nigerian leader’s wife.

Kashamu’s challenge is contained in a statement he issued in Abuja. In it, he likened Fayose’s attempt to link Mrs. Buhari with the Halliburton scandal as a “needless distraction and an amateurish shadow-boxing,” adding that his action “could be taken for a drowning man clutching at a straw”.

Both politicians belong to the Peoples Democratic Party.

Asking Fayose to “stop chasing shadows and address the allegations against him,” Kashamu said it was preposterous that the governor chose the exact same time that he is being investigated over the funds he allegedly collected from the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA) to remember that someone was involved in the Halliburton scandal.

“The questions are: Was he a beneficiary of the ONSA funds? Is it true that over N300million was frozen in three accounts traced to him? Were suspicious cash deposits made into the accounts in 2014, in clear violation of the Money Laundering Act and other enabling laws?”

The Senator said that what is now playing out confirms his earlier position that the loudest among us are not necessarily the most pious.

“If he is being asked questions about his campaign funds, he should be bold enough to give explanations without necessarily casting aspersion on anyone. He should allow necessary investigations to go on unimpeded. That will not only help to prove his innocence or otherwise but could possibly boost his rating. He could even choose to waive his immunity to aid the investigation if he does not have anything to hide. Immunity does not preclude any public officer even a governor from explaining how he funded his election campaign or the source (s) of deposits made into his account (s).”

He stressed that the allegations against the governor are too grave to be sidelined for a seemingly spurious allegation against the wife of the president.

He noted that months of workers’ salaries are yet to be paid in Ekiti State; development partners have abandoned the State, just as families are languishing as a result of his ill-advised political scheming.

“This current campaign of calumny and juvenile tantrums cannot sweep the issue of corruption under the carpet; neither can it kick enough dirt to make any right-thinking Nigerian to shut his or her eyes to the truth,” Kashamu said. “This is not about party affiliation or dog eating dog. It is about the plundering of our commonwealth and there should be no sacred cows in the fight against corruption. This is a fight that all patriotic Nigerians should lend their weight without any primordial sentiments or prejudice.”

The Senator expressed surprise to hear Mr. Fayose talking about the rule of law and the need to do things within the ambit of the law, saying he never knew that the governor had ever heard of the concept of the Rule of Law.

“When he trampled on other people’s rights in a bid to abrogate their tenure in office where was the Rule of Law?” he queried. “Now he is crying out because he is afraid he might have to get a taste of his own medicine because a man must certainly reap whatever he sows.

“Mr. Fayose is talking about the fact that he enjoys immunity under the law. If I may ask: can a governor who disobeys the law with reckless abandon seek protection under the law? You cannot say because immunity covers you, you should not be investigated if you are suspected to have benefitted from the funds that were meant to buy arms for the protection of Nigerians. I think it is high time that we, as a people and government, address the issue of people committing crimes and hiding under the immunity clause.”

As SaharaReporters has consistently reported, Mr. Kashamu is wanted in the United States on drug-related charges. He has so far escaped extradition with the help of corrupt judges on his payroll.

Dikko Inde Abdullahi, former CG of customs discharged from hospital and released from EFCC detention.Returns to his N2b Abuja mansion.

I alway guessed his arrest was a propaganda movement.

This is hilarious. Just stop the joke op. How xanthine you tell me that there super enemies (on nairaland) are related?

I have always know we are been decided on Nigeria . We say we are fighting corruption and we still grant thieves immunity. What a self deceite.

Wow. I know this type of thing can never happen in Nigeria. We have our past evil leader walking the street free

FxDuke:

Boss o dey hail o...I comot cap for you you are the chairman of chairmen!
wow what an impressive cv. kudos!
don't give up. this hardwork, diligence and brilliance will eventually pay off handsomely on the long run.

Tnx bro. All obstacles have be jumped over. Am an Engineer now and a core software developer. It does pay to work hard. Tnx again

DExplorer1:

I think you should leave Buhari out of this. We Nigerians have got the 'my people' mentality and that's in our DNA. Sincerely, I wouldn't know a company that would substitute professionalism for ethnic rivalry. If you're good, you go get the job regardless of your state. If anything, I may only be prompted to speak for the university aspirants as the said 25% indigene enrollment for all universities be scrapped.

Strong point sir. I hail u. The Nigerian civil service is one of such company, they hardly care for professionalism.

And that's why the Igbos will keep progressing. They said they love money.... YES they do love money. The elders know that and they want to help the youth make more money

abdulrazat:
I am in Imo state and I can tell you categorically that Rochas is a prick and a lying fool.

That's man is not worthy of been a prick. Let's just say he is the opposite of prick. Scam governor

Hehehe. I will keep smiling as long as we keep deceiving our selves in this country. Rochas is a big scam
