Good

Na wa. The blood flow in the land is just too much. I think the government of the day should take the issue of security much more seriously. Life and property protection is a core mandate given to them.

The annoying thing is that those that dragged Atiku back then when he said he would sell the refinery as the first thing in office are those that are angry that the refinery is making losses.

To those of you on this table, next time if you don't understand how things work in this country, please keep quiet when reasonable people are talking and providing solutions to move this country forward.

You that snatched the mandate of the people of Kogi state is talking?

They are not many na. Do you know how many SSA and SA these governors have? If you knew you would know that they are not much compared to those still in office.

This government is anti people. Why plan palliative when you clearly see that the people can't pay? Or is this another means of 'eating from the government '?

Nice song! Nice beat. He should do a remix with Phyno and olamide then him go surely BLOW

This man can't be further from the truth. Until we stop this quota system and chose the best from whatever religion or region, we wouldn't go far as a nation. Incompetence is way worse than corruption!

When Atiku said he would sell it, some hypocrites were saying rubbish. We have a huge problem of wasteful spending coupled with corruption.

News from Nigeria is enough for producers to get good movie storylines

Lock the LGA's down. China is doing the same and did the same when they were certified free for some time. Now they have got 12 cases and they locked down 400,000 people. I think completely locking down the LGA's will be good for us all

Too many sad days for democracy in this administration. If you cannot obey a simple court order, then what can you obey? This country has already gone down the hill. It's now going into the ocean.

So sad to see they have both gotten the Virus. They have been working round the clock to ensure the cases in the state is limited. Wishing them speedy recovery

Wahala just dey start

Throwback:
I thought some said that Edo is not Lagos?

Indeed! Edo is not Lagos.

In Lagos, the sitting Governor was allowed to contest the direct primary involving all registered party members, which he lost democratically.

In Edo, the sitting Governor was disqualified by the same party that qualified him 4yrs ago, such that he would not even be contesting the APC direct primaries.

Ambode will be laughing where he is, upon realizing his own situation was even better, and truly Ambode will agree that Edo is not Lagos.

I am not sure the last has been heard of Godwin Obaseki. Osho should be ready for a fight. It's no going to be uhuru for jim yet!

greatiyk4u:
The loans are taken to do the work that was not only supposed to have been done by PDP in their 16 locust years but was budget, funds released and Looted by their party lootenants


All those media cry to attract sympathy is too lame because we are not only wiser now but surely seeing with our naked eyes what the loans are used for and its sustainable benefits to Nigerians now and those unborn.

Just take a look at the governors of the federation, is their any PDP governor who is exceptional in performance? The opposition Governors understand PMB integrity ,hence, no complain from them


If APC looted 14Trillion naira under 6yrs, then, PDP must have stolen over $900T during their time.

I usually don't reply comments, but I will do this time as a result of enlightenment. The money been borrowed by this current government of President Buhari is not for project development. If we are borrowing almost 100 percent requirement of our budget with 30% capital and 70 percent recurrent, then you should know that only 30% or less is for development and that's if they release the entire money and the rest money borrowed are for consumption. This government urgently needs to cut down the size of the recurrent expenditure. Things like bloated feeding for the president and the vice. We are in austerity so we need to act like we are in one, not borrowing our way through it all.

Between Thierry Henry or David Beckham or Sergio Aguero

The truth is that you are prioritising beauty. When you get high blood pressure if you nor leave the girl, you die and she moves on to the next man. Nor be me go give you sense

Nigeria don cast.. I dey go back my village.

Nor carry the coro go your village lol. Stay where you dey lol

emeijeh:
I knew her years back at Uromi....Sacred Heart High School .
I am speechless

Yeah at Urom,i Lumen Christi international high school. Really sad. May her soul rest in peace. Amen

She was always a good woman. Very strict and loving woman. Taught me back in 1999. Very sad. May her soul rest in peace

Sad that those who are suppose to protect us are those killing us. If those who are suppose to enforce the law break it themselves, it just shows that we have a very long way to go. If I were there, I would have joined them in protesting

No matter how much you love the girl please leave her. She isn't the one for you. If you continue with her you might have heart problems from lack of trust. Find someone you are comfortable with. Someone who is responsible and not this girl you call your girlfriend. She probably is the girlfriend to 3 other people. You going through her phone and telling her. She will learn to clear her chats and browsing history before coming to meet you. JUST MOVE ON

Nigeria is getting worse every passing minute. Our leaders are stealing, our people are looking and those meant to protect us are killing. Who will save us from this quagmire we have found ourselves in?? Who will give us the voice that we have lost? We can only redeem ourselves with a collective resolve as Nigerians before we are all 6ft under. Today's survivors are tomorrow victims. Open your mouth wide and wail because a child beaten is permitted to cry. THINGS ARE NOT WORKING

NIGERIANS ARE NOT YET READY. UNTIL THESE PEOPLE WHO CALL THEMSELVES LEADERS TELL US TO OPEN OUR MOUTH LET THEM PEE INSIDE....I GUESS THAT'S WHEN WE WOULD KNOW IT HAS GONE SO BAD

DevelopNaija:
I sent the picture below to my friend and she responded 'AMEN'. I had to remind her that this is not a prophecy but a goal that needs actions to become a reality.

#Poverty will drastically reduce if the following are done.

1. Change our mindset
2. Increase Minimum Wage.
3.Cut down public officers' salaries and allowances.
4. Gain 21st Century skills.
5. Provision of well paying jobs
6. Smart solutions for electricity and Water problem
7. Stop being greedy, selfish and self-centered.
8. Minding one's business

What other ways can we reduce poverty for ourselves and others? Any suggestions?

Number one on your list should be TACKLING INSECURITY. without security no investor will be willing to bring funds to Nigeria. 2 EDUCATION! Proper education will see people reason differently and gain the necessary skill to achieve success. 3 ELECTRICITY. With constant electricity, the profit returns of companies will increase so they have more money to either increase salaries or reduce cost of goods which will make your salary worth more because inflation will reduce. Every other thing you stated above is equally valid

PETER OBI AND AKINWUNMI ADESINA. These two are just the only ones I can trust my country with and will be certain to see progress. ASTRONOMICAL PROGRESS I mean

Best chance is to take your sister's child to your parents house. DON'T ever speak of it to your sister or Father. Find an excuse to go back home with your sister's child.

Just imagine the amount they would have been claiming as subsidy if they were the ones in charge when crude was as high as 100 dollars per barrel and we were buying PMS at N89 naira

It is now your duty to raise it up again as the new chairman so that the country would be proud of you when you leave. There would also be a reasonable reason as to why Mr Flower was not reappointed

Last time I went to Tinapa. The place was dead!

His continued detention is based on the same rule of law...there are two sides to every law

Rule of law means obeying court judgements whether it favours you or not. Rule of law has no better explanation than that
