Brilliant...

I will do you one better..

The Israelites where slaves in Egypt for 430 years..

430 years they slaved and toiled in Egypt under many Pharoahs.

Then comes Moses, he does all he did and brings them out of Egypt. Less than a year in the Wilderness on their way to the promise land, guess what they said.......


Let that sink in for a moment before you respond.

1.On fuel...it is obvious....subsidy has to go so that marketers would have the cash to import fuel. Sure...prices would be high...but they would fall (see the GSM experience).

2.On power.....let's be honest....it is going to take ten years to fully improve generation, and sort out the wretched transmission system that we have right now. Either way...we must increase power supply because it is key to getting us off oil permanently.

MadCow1:
In under a year?

Really?

Dude.. We gave the Nigga 4 years.. Dont be in a hurry to judge..

Sit back and let them work their Change.

I feel the hardship, I feel the pains, I feel the sufferings, but I have faith. If after the 4 years elapses, shiit remains the same, I will vote for a different Candidate... AS LONG AS ITS NOT THE PDP.

Its time to demonopolize our Polity.

If solving Nigerias problems were so easy, PDP would have solved all of them over 16 years ago..

Darkchocolate:
I don't think you can actively compare a present government with past governments. It would not be a fair comparison. Perhaps you can bring up this poll again once his tenure is over.

zik4ever:
For those who know the inside gist of what really transpired, it was a bad case! Both political parties (and some of their senior leaders) would have been implicated if a very thorough and independent investigation was conducted. If they have been released, then it was a "political solution". Before you comment, go and find out what really happened at the Ikwerre LGA collation centre, who attacked election officials after failing to compromise them, what was the role of some security officials, who stole original result sheets and who attacked the convoy escorting the results from Isiokpo to Port Harcourt? Left for me ALL culprits (both APC and PDP involved in the whole Rivers election saga) should have been diligently prosecuted but the powers that be, including security agencies know more than is said on Nairaland! May we be delivered from ungodly politicians (irrespective of party) including those who have deceived some Nairalanders to insult each other and even act as their e-warriors whereas the bottom line is that they don't really care about us including you who is their staunch supporter!

amaechi1:
I understand how you feel and your hatred toward Mr President. One think I am quite sure of, even if Nigeria should have Obama as President, we will still complain.

1. The first chapter in the book of good governance is transpiracy. The full implementation of TSA and publication of NNPC balance every month is a good step in the right direction. You and I knows quite well that NNPC has been an object of controversies, especially their books. It take a man who means well for his country to make such move;

2. I am being force to mention the fight against corruption. We are all aware that one of the problem last administration could not touch is corruption, impunity and bad economy. Now the fight against corruption is on, even though some people call it witch hunting. But the question is these people, do they tamper with public fund? We are now beginning to see those that are "untouchable" being touched.

3. Financial discipline is being enforced.

So, when you system in place others will fall in place.

Have a blessed day.

it happened on the floor of the senate. Moreover the news is all over so if u don't mind go ask the senator representing your district to verify the truism.

ddippset:
we also need to discuss the billions looted by wike as local government chairman, his role in the death of tens of rivers people in the 2015 elections and also his role in the deaths and beheadings in this present election.

otokx:
Who is the leader of PDP in Rivers? WIKE

Who is the leader of APC in Rivers? AMAECHI

The political heat is being caused by followers of APC and PDP?

The 2 leaders or and their representatives should be called to an informal round table to talk about reducing the tension.

That is what some school of thought suggest.

ddippset:
perfectly said: punish all them election riggers. Start with wike and patience Jonathan for their roles in 2015.

Governor is shying away from the suggestion that for political peace, he and Amaechi should come out publicly and hold a joint meeting to ask for peace.

Gaborone:
It's so sad.

The other day too, an Aunt of mine was complaining of being stressed out, and I suggested she took a day or two off her leave days to rest. She didn't waste time in saying 'No, this is not the time for taking leave'
The fear of losing jobs is real. When companies are not making as much, downsizing begins, and that's what's happening right now.

Someone was giving me an Economic 101 lecture the other day, and he was like it takes a period of about 6 months for the result of mass retrenchment to start showing. That right now, the I million or so Nigerians who have lost their jobs of recent would still be spending as much as they did while they had jobs, because of the savings which they have kept. But months from now, when their savings have run out, and they haven't found new jobs, they would begin to put their scale of preference in order, and cut down costs. When this happens, they would begin to consume less, and as a result, this would affect 'consumer' companies, because people are not buying as much. When people don't buy as much, company profit drops. When Company profits drop, more people are retrenched and investors would find nothing appealing in the country... and the ripple effect will continue.

I don't know... but at the end of the day, I pray for wisdom for those in government, because when they lack direction, the people suffer.

olad1954:
Gaborone quoting you "what would be the point if he ignores the fact that rot , termite are beginning to deal with the basket " these are the parts of the linking water that contaminate the basket . the president didn't neglect any sector of the economy or focus only on corruption.it will take time before we can see the result of his efforts. the oil price is so low now that the government cannot rely on it to run the country.so he needs to look else where for revenue. and the only place is to collect money(billions) from corrupt officials . things has to get worse before it gets better.

gists:
I suggest you better look for another job elsewhere because if this is how your boss reason, you people may close shop sooner than you think.
Ministers appointed and doing their work and someone is saying Nigeria closing shop.
Oil vessels are on the high sea with extremely little buyers and add the fact that the oil price is down, yet you boss thinks getting stolen funds (in billions of dollars) to beef up the country's financial strength is a waste of energy.
Are the ministers not working? The other day Fashola gave a presentation just as the minister of finance is embarking on an ambitious revenue drive

ddippset:
well I guess your operating word here is 'rumoured' which means it was never substantiated. So let's leave it as what it is, a mere rumour.

ddippset:
his influence or non influence in the 2011 elections is quite irrelevant in this discuss. The point am trying to make is that he worked and was committed to jonathan's election which completely negates your assertion that he was jealous of Jonathan and didn't want him to be president.

superstar1:
Nice question.
We can contribute 20bn per month for govt as at today because there is no one on planet earth that can dispute the fact that we have strong men of integrity and worthy character as Number 1 and 2 citizens of this blessed country. Once you get the leadership right, all other things will fall into place with time.

Taxation should not be our problem, Our problem should be for every increase in taxaion, the govt must enter into social contract that is and legally binding with its people, clearly stating what will be done within a time frame and if not done, the people also have the right to stop paying. Simple. That is building of trust between the governed and the governors.


Just 1 week outside the country will show you how much taxes people outside the country pay every month, why the govt does not joke with their welfarism of their people, while things appear to be working and why their populace are very much interested in their politics and governance matter.

Can you imagine one id1ot of a politician coming to my hood to be doling out public money after all and sundry have been taxed and he will not stoned or lynched to death?

I might be wrong. but we have taken this route that has led us to nowhere severally and it is better for us to change our tactics.

ddippset:
lol, the same amaechi who was at the forefront of the delivery of over 1 million votes for Jonathan in 2011 elections? You and the guy you quoted are talking gibberish. Amaechi's problem with Jonathan started when Jonathan seeded rivers oil wells to bayelsa.

ddippset:
leave all these conspiracy theories for beer parlour joints and newspaper stands abeg. In terms of development no other rivers governor equals amaechi. No amount of 'he betrayed our brother sentiments' could ever change that.
