Yes, we know.

Isn't it obvious...

Godpolymath:
Sigh you guys dont get me,i want Nigeria to seperate,i am not even yoruba but the way you guys are going about it is a dead cause.

kanu,your great hero made his family to stay overseas while his fans die in the warzone,which hero does that?

If biafra cant hold the leaders accountable now,what makes you think your utopia will come to pass?

If Nigeria indeed separate,biafra will be like mexico to niger delta with fake drugs and corrupt country.

But the worse corrupt people in the country are from the north and west...so what are you screaming about?

Why are you people so afraid of Biafra?

If they will be like Mexico, how would that affect you in your own country?

ANIOMADEI2018:
As 2019 approaches, those who brought Nigeria to its knees, vandalized and wrecked it and left it for dead before 2015 are busy trying to weave a comeback mantra that will help them access power once again in 2015 after a disastrous 16 years trauma that left Nigeria for dead.

They are being joined in this vain mission by those who thought the coming of Buhari would shift the looting tent to their side and as it never happened, they became bitter, inconsolable enemies of the regime. Also in the train are the confused ideologues who have good intentions initially but are so disoriented as to be captured by the pedestrian feel-good stories of a utopia which Buhari would have wrought even with the fact that he inherited the most austere economic realities.

They have massed together to lead an erroneous chorus that Nigerians should vote out Buhari in 2019. Sho? Some of us who have been assaulted by this perverse gospel have asked why we should vote out Buhari but we have gotten no convincing answer than a rehearse of a more perverse narration of how Buhari has turned Nigeria to a land of hunger and misery and how killings have been happening under Buhari? Is that so? When you prod further, what you get is a string of poorly articulated narration of how life was a seamless bread and butter affair in Nigeria before Buhari came. If you try to run some comparisons to prove this story, they tell you to forget the past and face the future.

Truth is that those who weave sordid stories to make Buhari look bad are so afraid to confront the past, which itself introduces a huge paradox to their badly-arranged stories. Can you face the present and the future without excursing into the past? To them, life should start from May 29, 2015 when Buhari took over from the scandalous regime they ran. That itself, is a cut-and-paste effort to manipulate. It is as fraudulent as the claim of these same people that they have repented (and you ask, repent from what?) and their more notorious request to be allowed back to power. They are so pathologically hunted by the past they created that they make every effort to shout down any person that refers them to the hell they presided over here for a whole 16 years. They want Nigerians to abridge their memories and senses and join them in voting out Buhari based on their micro-managed but hardly agreeing narratives, which sees Buhari as having failed. Some of them are even telling Nigerians that Buhari has proven not to be the solution to our problem.

Since we have an Eldorado they claimed they did here in 16 years, which other problems are they talking about? Which problems are they claiming they will offer solutions to when they brought down heaven on earth to Nigeria n their 16 messy years in power? PDP claimed they did beyond expectation so why are they apologizing and telling Nigerians of their readiness to be born-again rulers if given back power?

But then, the question remains; why should I and other Nigerians vote out Buhari and bring back the locusts? Should I vote Buhari out because he is meticulously rebuilding an economy that was eaten down and ran in red during a providential oil boom? Do I vote out Buhari because he is frantically building up our foreign reserve that was so badly vandalized when oil, our solo export product, went at over $120 a barrel and the country was exporting over 2.5million ever day? Do I vote out Buhari in 2019 because he is achieving this unbelievable feat at a period the oil price crashed to between $27 to $50 a barrel and our daily sale volume was cut to as low as below 700,000 barrels a day because those that lost their power to loot saw oil facilities as one of the sectors they must avenge their electoral defeat on? Do I vote out Buhari because at this very arid economic turn, he is making the highest investment in capital projects?

Do I vote out Buhari in 2019 because he has channeled all the money that would have used to service the gluttony and bacchanal greed of party men, cronies, hirelings, friends, subalterns, bed mates and party members of the party in power and its government to critical capital projects that will drive the Nigerian economy? Should I vote out Buhari because he adamantly refused to bow to the pressure to sustain the corruption omnibus and ensure Nigerians live straight and narrowly without stealing from the treasury? Do I vote out Buhari because he has taken up the nation’s decayed infrastructures and is fixing them in a way no other government has done in the past?

Do I vote out Buhari because he decided to implement strict monetary policies to save Nigeria’s resources from yam eaters, rodents and plunderers who are anchoring the noisome battle for his replacement? Do I vote out Buhari because the treasury raiders who looted a richly endowed country dry before he came feel that he should satisfy their senses of entitlement and continue abandoning the infrastructure that should drive our growth as a nation? Do I vote out Buhari because he has stopped evil servants from operating millions of phantom accounts through which they bleed the treasury while we collectively suffer? Do I vote out Buhari because the economy is no more about looting, plundering, sharing and stealing?

Should I vote out Buhari because he has insisted that he will neither chop nor allow pests to feast on our commonwealth? Should I vote out Buhari because he insists that Nigerian wealth must serve us all instead of a ravenous few? Do I vote out Buhari because in a period of austerity, he saved states that went bankrupt when we were having oil boom and had made them solvent through prudent and honest management of our economy? Do I vote out Buhari in 2019 because he insists that Nigerians should work for what they earn? Should I vote out Buhari because he is fixing federal roads, the power sector, the energy sector in a way no government has done in the history of the country?

Do I vote out Buhari because he is no longer feeding corrupt-former leaders who not only looted Nigeria to the bones but insist on being serviced by what remains of the treasury? Do I vote out Buhari in 2019 because he is no longer pandering to the indecent corrupt interests of the legislature whose members are being ran ragged by frustration that they are no longer enjoying the bazaar as they used to do? Should I vote out Buhari because he is no longer deploying sacks of billions of Naira to bribe the legislature on sundry issues? Should I vote out Buhari because some of his party men who expected being spoon-fed from the national purse are disappointed he is not doing so? Do I vote out Buhari because those that stole the country to the bones and who thought they had escaped with their loot are being called by to return what they stole?

Do I vote out Buhari because the professional scavengers that flood around the seat of power with the hope of free-loading from our commonwealth have been made extinct? Do I vote out Buhari because he stopped the murderous escapades of Boko Haram that killed in tens of thousands, that took a huge size of Nigerian landmass and subjected the entire country to unrestrained attacks and untamed danger? So do I vote out Buhari because he is building the Second Niger Bridge for which past regimes duped my Igbo people? Do I vote out Buhari because he is building the enormous Mambilla Power Station which past governments played around with for decades without as much as turning the foundation soil on the project site?

Should I vote out Buhari because he is building massive railways across Nigeria? Should I vote out Buhari because he is meticulously building a viable economy from the rubble of the chaos he met on ground? Should I vote out Buhari because the vampires that wrecked the public treasury are angry and baying bare blood because, for the first time in the country’s history, they have lost access to the treasury? Do I vote out Buhari because the vampires that sucked life out of us especially in the fatal 16 years’ period before 2015 are wailing their eyes out and feigning hunger as an elaborate dubious project to take another injurious bite on us?

Do I vote out Buhari because he paid off trillions of Naira past governments owed contractors for contracts they used to enrich their members? Do I vote out Buhari because he paid off over N600 billion subsidy the past regime owed fuel importers and saved the energy industry from collapse? Do I vote out Buhari because he has rebuilt what remained of the four refineries that previous governments abandoned as scraps? Do I vote out Buhari because he stopped the payment of fraudulent subsidy to phantom fuel importers as was the culture before he came? Do I vote out Buhari because sundry, corrupt interests are no longer being awarded fake contracts where they walk away with the contract monies without even visiting the project sites? Do I vote out Buhari because he paid off trillions of Naira owed pensioners in federal government ministries, parastatals and agencies during our unfortunate oil boom? Do I vote out Buhari for the trillions spent on the most ambitious social intervention scheme to rescue the most vulnerable in our society, which is the most elaborate any government has ever embarked in Nigeria?

Why should I vote out Buhari? Do I vote out Buhari because he has stopped the drainpipe of freaky importation of freebies that served as feeding bottle for corrupt politicians before he came? Do I vote out Buhari because he stopped the importation of foodstuffs and through this bold action, has made Nigeria a sustainable agricultural country where citizens feed themselves? Do I vote out Buhari because of the agricultural revolution he is doing in Nigeria, which has seen the country unravel as sustainable food producer from its recent past as a top food importer? Should I vote out Buhari because he has made politics a non-rewarding venture unlike in the past? Do I vote out Buhari because he had securely locked up our treasure box and restrained access to it to even his appointees and supporters? Do I vote out Buhari because he is strongly ranged against the gargantuan corruption complex from which most Nigerians eke out a living?

These are just few posers I want those that have launched a project to get Nigerians to turn against Buhari. I don’t know of any incoming leader but I make bold to say that President Buhari has done far more than any other President that ruled Nigeria. I am open to correction by any person that feels otherwise and this would be done through telling us any president that has done better by listing what such president did. So are these reasons why I should vote out Buhari? Make no mistake about it, the project to stop Buhari flows from no patriotic reasons but squarely on the reality that Buhari has capped official stealing and plundering. It is for the singular reason that Buhari has plugged our treasury from these leeches that he is making huge investment in growth-driving capital ventures even when we are going through difficult economic realities because the oil we have, over time, depended lazily on, has met turbulent times.

So, on what ground will I and millions of Nigerians that endured very desperate pressures in 2015 to vote out the moths and rodents, not vote in Buhari in 2019 to continue the good works he is doing? Is it because the looters and their accomplices that neigh the country’s treasury have weaved enough incoherent and contradictory lies against Buhari that I will dive into a fatal voyage in 2019? Is it because those that ate down our country are breathing enough vain fury? Is it that we are simple-indeed enough to be taken advantage of by desperadoes that want power for its corrupt ends? Is it that those who raped and pauperized us before 2015 are right in their feeling that we are a simple-minded and memory-challenged people as to fall for any silly prank Never! I see no reason why we should not vote more emphatically for Buhari in 2019; not based on who he is but on what he had done with the mandate we gave him in March 2015 and based on the fact that he is the most assured hand to deepen the recovery of Nigeria and the setting of a credible template for the growth of Nigeria.

Left Nigeria for dead with fuel price going for N145 instead of N87
...sacking of 5,000 from banks and other companies..
...dollar going to N360?

Godpolymath:
Not only the oil,other people land.

They want to take the land of the place they find their people in south.

They should take their igbo mainly speaking state and go

Just like you afonjas will take you people in Ilorin, Offa and those in Kogi and go...

You guys are truly unintelligent...

Godpolymath:
Seriously you guys are dreaming,you will loose this war and deaths of your brothers if you continue this way..

you want a biafra,okay..take now go..No that isnt want you guys want,you want niger delta.

Not just Niger delta,you want the oil and the water,which is impossible.
You guys claim yoruba is cowards and losers,i dare you to challenge your governors that is milking you guys try,till then your dream of biafra is nothing but a joke.

Niger delta has not business with biafra,the ijaws you guys claim doesnt even support you,they rejected biafra times without number..

if biafra do succed it will be worse than sudan and north korea join together,cause they are bunch of greedy criminals that wants powers

Are we right to say that you that have power for more than 35 years is a bunch of greedy terrorists that have clung to power for decades running down every agency of government like NNSL, Nigeria railway, NEPA, Nigeria Airways, Nigerdock, NNPC and others?

Biafra would be better than your Nigeria with oil...

Ghana, Botswana, Rwanda, Namibia, and other small countries are better than big Nigeria using all indices of development and yet they have no oil.

Remittance from Nigerians in diaspora is about $22 billion, guess which region has most of the inflow...

So what is this one all about?

yemmight:
Does Kanu Nnamdi exist? I beg leave that threat.

What have you done with Miyetti Allah threat?

Coward!

schoolboij:
Iboes have always been known for chest beating. We have heard all kinds of threats and ultimatums.

Na today?

When Aba women were fighting the colonialist...

Dahomey girls were chasing you guys all the way to Edo Benin...

Pastor Mbaka said the same thing before.

Where is he now?

HiddenShadow:
Tivs are like a people who are confused on whom to lean on.

They believe that the Igbos will definitely deal with them if they join the Biafran train while at the same time, they keep suffering deaths in the hands of Fulani Terrorists.

I am yet to understand how the killers could disappear into the thin air after every attack. Why can't the youths get themselves together and chase them through the bushes...track them down and do the needful? They couldn't have gone far.

This killing has some weird things about it.

Where are the Tiv soldiers today?

HiddenShadow:
If only Tivs had not gloat over their genocidal role during the Civil War, they won't be scared joining the Biafran Movement in saving their lives.

The governor boasted earlier when the killing started..but he has long swallowed his words...


"...We made a disproportionate contribution to the maintenance of the unity of Nigeria at war. We made a sacrifice of over half a million men to keep Nigeria one; we cannot be made to look like cowards. When you want to fight your wars, where do they get soldiers? They come here (Benue). We contributed more than one million men to fight the Nigerian Civil War. We had three quarters of the casualties. What has Nigeria rewarded my people with?...Governor Ortom

You mean real stunted growth like your brothers,Aki and pawpaw?
Igbos lead in poverty after the North...UNO,NBS and WORLD have always
recognised Igbos' domination in poverty even with their massive drug dealings...
.YORUBAS control the economy of Nigeria..One thing about Igbos is the delusion that has characterized their lives from time immemorial.I remember reading that Ojukwu said that he had the best army in Africa during the civil war but it was all delusion.Igbos said they control the economy of Nigeria but it was later found out that they are parasites.
Igbos said they control Technology,it was later found out that Yorubas control almost 70% of ICT.Igbos said they are the most industrious and they commenced a thread calling out Yorubas to compete with them and at the end it was discovered that they do/did not have up to 7% of the industries in Lagos where they said they control and it occurred to everybody that Yorubas control the economy of Lagos and Nigeria with their massive industries even they have more than the Igbos fourfold abroad.This is the thread.

Poverty rate are all dependent on all these indices and more but poverty would not allow them know what facts mean.The research was not carried out by Yorubas but World bank,Nbs and UNO but our always complaining brothers would rather live in delusion.We know you rule Africa in being pioneer ritualists,baby factory workers,kidnapping,mass drug dealing that warranted an English professor to write a book on your drug dealing prowess,stealing and selling of babies and different types of crimes created solely by the Igbos,all in a bid to chestbeat BUT YOU ARE STILL MORE POVERTY STRICKEN THAN THE YORUBAS.Facts are sacrosanct no matter your wailing..


Regional breakdown of poverty.

1.) SW-19.3%
2.) SS-25.2%
3.) SE-27.4%
4.) NC- 42.6%
5.) NE-76.8%
6.) NW-81.1%

All these epistles are a load of decaying garbage...

You have not proved your case why a sensible federal government would start the pilot on poverty alleviation from the richer states.

Even your lame donkey will laugh at you poor rendition.

You have no shame to try to turn the facts on their heads.

Again, let me refresh your confused self with the states chosen for the pilot:


List of 9 pilot test states for the poorest Nigerians, the poor receive N5,000 handout.

Bauchi, Borno, Kwara , Kogi , Niger - North

Cross River - South South

Ekiti , Osun and Oyo - South West

Nil - South East

asorocker:
Very nice , they can also look at alternative energy sources, Igbo scientists can free Igbo's from the satanic strong hole and yoke called one Nigeria

For where...

Check and see how the people in Abuja will pass a law to kill it.

Its either UNN will be denied further grants or a bank will come and claim UNN is in debt...

Nigeria is configured to fail...no matter the good intentions...

Too bad..but truth..

Ofemannnu:
Clean your mouth
Those states were the best in organisation and statistics.They do not have long throats like your leaders.Moreover,your poor people need the food more than the money,poorie

Accorhding to the release, “The nine pilot states were chosen because they have an existing Social Register that successfully identified the most vulnerable and poorest Nigerians through a tried and tested community based targeting (CBT) method working with the World Bank. However other states have already begun developing their Social Registers and would be included in subsequent phases of the CCT implementation.”
Go to school,you no go go.Shior.Meanwhile,SE remains the poorest region in the South.Ask UNO and NBS.

I think you are in MARS...

You really need to shut your mouth to stop embarrassing yourself..

According to UNICEF statistics showed that 37 per cent of children representing over six million are malnourished.
She disclosed that the 17.2 million figure represents 43.6 per cent of an estimated 40 million Nigerian children under the age of five years, adding that 19.4 per cent children in the South-west are stunted resulting from malnourishment.
“This is worse than the South-east and South-south but better than the North. And we must do more as agenda setters to keep this issue on national discourse and help reverse the ugly trend,” she said.

-------------------------------------------------

Assuming you are correct that SE is the poorest state...why didn't the government state from there? Opening a register should be part of the pilot...Don't you think? Olodo...

Nigeria needs young fast attacking forwards....

Good for Eagles...

Onazi

Shehu

Joel Obi

Should stay back in Nigeria.

Ndonu101:
Mikel should drop deep, let Iheanacho play the number 10 position

Let Iheanacho enter for Joel Obi

Ebuehi for Shehu

Musa for Iwobi

Simy for Ighalo

I am really disappointed in Joel Obi today, I expected better

Did you watch the match at all...

Iwobi is the best player on NIgeria side...

Best Nigerian player so far is Iwobi...

alhassanyusuf29:
super eagles is a very useless team,na inyamuri flat.heads full em!

Shehu wey dey fear oyibo....with his several miss passes...

he should be rearing cows in Sambisa forest...

Returning Onazi in second half is like Chelsea coach Conte, playing Bakayoko forever...

Is

Ndidi injured? He is natural to replace Onazi for good.

What about Kelechi Iheancho...He can do better than the heavy clay footed Igalo...

Moses ought to play in the position he plays for Chelsea...

With

Onazi

Shehu

Mikel Obi

Igalo

It will be Argentina 10, Eagles 0
