Hmmm. I thought rivers people or niger deltans dont want an 'Islamic party'. How come their are protests here and their against the so called islamic party consensus candidate. They could have just ignored and vote for PDP na. . PDP officially dead in rivers.

I am a niger deltan and will surely vote for APC.

Maybe you need to read what is written on some of their placards.

APC apologists would have found a conspiracy theory to attach if the advert was that of PDP

OP, regarding you Brazil comparison, that country is almost 10 times bigger than ours in size, the fact that we have almost the same population with them shows that something is wrong.
When we say Nigeria is overpopulated people argue.

Set up
Staged
maybe hoax too

I hope the 35 or so hunters that were killed in a bomb blast today will not scare the rest away from fighting boko haram.
As for the sophiscated weapons, buying them is not the issue, making sure soldiers do not hand it over to boko haram in the course of battle or tactical retreat is more important.

A beautiful and brilliant woman.
I remember APC media outlets were saying a few months ago that she was rejected because of her corrupt reputation, what do they have to say now?

In what many will consider to be a further blow to the administration of Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan on the international scene, a leading international firm has given the ‘Thumbs Down’ to one of his own nominees.

QMark:
30 houses? Do we still have fire service in Nigeria



Is there another meaning to "timely arrival" that i don't know?

30 houses cannot burn in 10 minutes unless they all started burning the same time.

Make shift houses, made of planks, zincs, very inflammable.

If it was GEJ that said this, APC plebs would have capitalised on it calling him ''clueless'' for blaming everyone for his failures instead of finding solutions.....but check out their comments here.
Bloody hypocrites.

TheRealAdonye:
If PDP brings someone from the Upland (eg, Wike), they will surely lose..

People from the Upland (Odili and Amaechi) have ruled for 16 years. The Riverine area has the next 16.
If PDP and APC brought an Uplander and APGA brought someone from the Riverine, APGA would win..

But upland has far more votes, influence and money na.
It is not by shouting o, it is by votes.

Responding

Where did he get the loan from?

Was there anything like Opposition during Obasanjo's tenure?
He stifled everything from Local government to Federal level.

See lamentation!
Use your votes to choose the right people and kick out the wrong ones instead of blaming others incessantly. If GEJ imposes someone you don't trust as PDP candidate, then vote for APGA or any other party contesting for that position. T.A. Orji has chosen his own PDP candidate and shut out other governorship aspirants, the simple thing Abia people can do is to vote for Alex Otti who has defected to APGA and I am sure they will do it.
If incubent governors like Ohakim, Fayemi and others can be kicked out after first tenure, what is so difficult about making sure the outgoing governor's stooge or the President's imposed candidate doesn't win?
Enough of unnecessary lamentation.
SMH.

He also said this on his Facebook page 2012.
Let the oil burn! It would be harsh for us at first but we will scale through. This is both good and bad news for Nigeria. Enough dependency on the oil, We have been screaming diversification like forever yet little action from the government. Go back to groundnut pyramids, Go back to agriculture.

It seems a lot more people even support the price crash of the oil. http://mobile.twitter.com/elrufai/status/281690966593777664

LMAO!
How much is groundnut in the market? Who says price of agricultural products like cocoa isn't dropping too?
The solution is in manufacturing and serious industrialisation, not mere planting and harvesting. Many other African countries are as over-dependent on Agriculture as we are on oil and they are worse off.
Industrialization is the answer.

obamartins:
Oh! Just shut it. You mean the country should stand still because some unscrupulous bunch of retards decided to be bombing themselves? Initially, u northerners thought u were making the country ungovernable for G.E.J until the monster u were silently supporting overwhelmed the entire North East. The truth is that when u Northerners decide to solve ur problem, the insurgency will come to an end. The Military cannot do it without ur support, u guys know the strangers and people cable of causing trouble, but u turned a blind eyes and supported them because you though they are fighting Jihad hence doing "Allah's will" while they where bombing churches, now there is no church to be bombed again and u are lamenting because u lots are at the receiving end. My friend, life goes on, and Nigeria will not stand still because of the terrorism in the North East. You people can keep using it as a political weapon against G.E.J, but i have an advise for u, G.E.J's tenure will come and go, but u guys will live with the scar that comes with ur stupid act of supporting terrorists in the name of islam.

I wish I had more likes to give you.

Toktee:
Keep talking 2015 is just a month ahead,i wondered how you microscopic few will keep ur clumsy looking brother with ogogolo filled head in aso rock beyond 2015?
We will live with the scar just the way biafra and niger deltan are living whth their own,if jonathan tribal chief cn be kiddnap then,there is no safe place in nigeria

One thing you guys don't realise is that Buhari cannot be President without getting at least 25% votes from 24 out of the 36 states in the country, that is assuming he even gets majority of the votes in the first place.
He was only able to muster that 25% in 16 states last time.

Toktee:
xo,what do you call the stoning to death of a youngman in enugu in 2011 who voted 4 buhari?

I will call it a lie.

The debate will be all about what Jonathan did and didn't do, not what they intend to do or how they will do it.

It is quite a normal snake

I will simply quote a post from one of the biggest anti-GEJ of all times. Although he made the post simply for the purpose of turning Igbos against GEJ, but he ended up telling us that the presido was indeed performing.

No, we are saying the same thing. Tribalism and bigotry shapes your thinking and awareness. Tribalism and bigotry dictates your existence and relationship with other people hence your preoccupation with this dreaded disease while other people progress...


Abuja-Kaduna Rail Line is almost completed paid for via direct FG contract. Meaning the people of Nigeria are paying for it.

The Lagos Ibadan Express is under construction and paid for via direct FG contract. Meaning the people of Nigeria are paying for it.

The $1.53bn Lagos-Ibadan-Ilorin standard Rail project is under construction and paid for via direct FG contract. Meaning the people of Nigeria are paying for it.


Escravos to Lagos Pipelines System (ELPS) is almost done whit the second leg heading to Kano. How do you industrialize and develop in this modern age without gas pipelines to run your industries?

Now, the most important thing to you and the only thing you've been asking for which is the 2nd NB is still a dream and the only plan right now is to make sure ibo people pay for their own bridge via tolling? It means the people of Nigeria are not paying for it.

Have you asked yourself why GEJ is awarding and paying for major contracts and developing other places in Nigeria but when it comes to ibo people, it's repaint a warehouse and label it port, repaint some old airport and that's all..

You are paying a terrible price for tribalism and bigotry..

There's got to be more to you people than needless hate, bigotry and tribalism..

In addition to the above, GEJ has attracted a lot of investors to Lagos through his automobile and other economic policies.

Oya come let's derail this thread tsolz1300, your picture will come up with every picture fray here so be warned

Guy just calm down and watch.
If he wants his mother's bleached face to form the background of this thread, let him try nonsense.

orimsamsam:
dude d problem with you is dat you are just too sentimental in your judgement. You criticize any you feel does not support jonathan 2015 re-election. For God sake, nigeria is an oil producing country. Why cant we repair our faulty refinering and build new one. The country u mention dat nigeria import petrol frm has a higher gdp dan nigeria. The earliar you start saying the truth the better

My guy this is not about refineries, yes I agree our refineries should be repaired and more should be bullt but the fact is that we still import petrol and with the current price of crude oil in the market, there is no way you can buy refined petrol at N109 without subsidy as the article claims. Those countries GDPs have nothing to do with their petrol price, they sell according to the price of crude oil in the market + the cost of refining it. If they sell for an equivalent of N300 in their countries, there is no way we can buy from them for anything less, so the price of petrol definitely can't be N109 without subsidy.
If the article was about the Government's failure to repair our refineries to full capacity or build new ones, I wouldn't have commented.
2 private refineries, Dangote in Lagos and Orient in Anambra are being built anyway.

Let those soldiers be deployed to Sambisa as soon as possible.
Hopless cowards.

Next 18 months? Hmmmmm.

Too near or too far?

Another Chinese company started the process of assembling heavy duty trucks in Enugu last month after signing an agreement with ANAMCO.
www.businessdayonline.com/2014/09/hope-rises-for-eastern-auto-market-as-new-investors-enter-anammco/#.VA_g_3lwZoM

A Chinese firm, Xiamen XGMA International Trade Company Limited, has entered into partnership with a Nigerian firm, Richbon Group Nigeria Limited, to invest $40 million, about N6.4 billion, to set up a tractor assembling plant in Nigeria. This will lead to the local manufacture of XGMA tractors, heavy duty machineries and equipment. XGMA, founded in 1951, is a Chinese national large- scale backbone enterprise, which specialises in manufacturing of wheel loaders, excavators, road construction machinery, forklift trucks and mini-machinery Speaking in an interview announcing the partnership in Lagos, Mr. Sahm Yap, Vice President Xiamen XGMA, said the assembling plant, which will
be built in Anambra State, will be used for the
manufacture of majority of its earth-moving
machineries and will also provide job opportunities for about 5,000 Nigerians when completed. Yap explained that Nigeria is an important market to XGMA and it is hoping to make it a centre for sales, after-sales, spare parts supply, financing and manufacturing. He further stated that the company is currently in
discussion with the relevant authorities and is
about getting the necessary clearances for the
assembling plant, adding that immediately the
necessary approvals are secured, work will
commence in earnest on the plant. He said Xiamen XGMA is one of the major supplier of
earth moving tractors and equipment in China and the world and has been eyeing the Nigerian market because of the opportunity it will afford the company to deploy its high quality products in Nigeria, and also look for other investment opportunities, especially in areas related to manufacturing. He said, “Our machines are of the highest quality and the price is highly affordable, this is what we
believe will give us an edge against other
competitors in the Nigerian market. “With the partnership with Richbon and when the assembling plant is concluded, our products will be an household name in Nigeria, especially in the area of civil engineering and construction. “The partnership will create enormous job opportunities for Nigerian and will help attract the much-needed investments into Nigeria.” He said the company is ready to transfer its technology to Nigerians and cooperate with Nigeria in achieving economic development, adding that the memorandum of understanding it signed with Richbon will serve as the starting point towards achieving these goals. On its partnership with Richbon, Yap disclosed that it took the company a long time before it could get a company to partner in Nigeria, due to its commitment to quality and high standard. “When we had the opportunity to partner with Richbon, we discovered that we had a lot in common and that our interests match. Since we started the cooperation with Richbon about a year ago, last year, we have seen a very good and long term partner and we believe it will be beneficial not only to both companies, but also to the Nigerian economy. Also speaking, Mr. Chike Muonagolu, Chairman/
Chief Executive officer, Richbon Group, said both XGMA and Richbon have signed an assembling agreement with two vehicle assembly plants in Nigeria, as regards the tractor assembling plant in Nigeria, adding that within the next 18 months, they intend to employ between 1,500 to 2,000 Nigerians in the initial stage of the project. He expressed optimism that that the partnership will bring about increased patronage of the products by governments at all levels, corporate organisations and individuals. “Knowing that the products one is using is made in Nigeria will endear the products to Nigerians, especially as they will know that they can easily get spare parts, after-sales service among many other benefits,” he said.

Useless journalists.
The countries we import fuel from still sell petrol at an equivalent of N300 and above within their country so how can we sell at N105 without subsidy despite the cost of transportation?
Lies upon lies.

The stadium wasn't as empty as the pics suggest, I watched the match on super sports select, there were a lot of fans in the stadium
