Goodluck can only win if he contest under APC, even we the south will massively vote for him, Leave Wike with his big uncontrollable mouth.

So that he will rule only 4 years and hand over power back to North again to continue ruining the country from where they stopped? Make una try dey get sense sometimes.

North wants to install GEJ so that he will do only 4 years and hand over to them again to continue milking the country for 8 years, that will never happen.

thebosstrevor1:
They have banned sales to the black market, they are now illegal

It's illegal yet they operate in the their thousands in the heart of FCT and other States unhindered? Who is deceiving who?

Instead of this idiot to approach the National Assembly to enact a law prohibiting BDC, you are there capping nonsense. You banned BDC yet they are there in their thousands in the heart of FCT, Sheraton Hotel area to be precise, right under your nose.... We like deceiving ourselves so much in this country.

You dey borrow money dey share in the name of of social nonsense to another, continue.

Does the Sharia Law supersedes the constitution now? That is what I don’t just understand. I think it’s high time those affected challenge this rubbish in court up to Supreme Court.

Mitsurugi:
I want to know the legal abracadabra the court will pull on this matter because the constitution clearly supports the States. The FIRS already shot itself by writing to the National Assembly for urgent constitutional amendment, so why are they appealing

They want to delay the matter at the court until they secretly smuggle it inside the constitution through constitutional amendment.

Thank God, hopefully this new CG will fastrack international passport processing, this idiots has frustrated me for a while four months

Apart from issues of freedom, this guys might even run the country much better than booted corrupt government before. If they develop the country infrastructurally and economically with relative peace better than the previous government, I will root for them.

jaxxy:
While I agree with u, it’s obvious smtmes internal investigation systems are most times either flawed or biased. Case study is FIFA. Internal Investigative committee found nothing on him still the US stepped in.

I however have a problem with the timing of the investigation. It’s very suspicious. That is my major problem here.

When you have a dirt on yourself, your adversaries will wait until when they will have muximum damage on you before they unleash their arsenal, it’s all about politics bro.

Aarenaija:
A Wiesel blower did his blowing.......

Auditors did their jobs internally and externally as laid down by rules of the bank..........

The board of governance sat, investigated for a period of 3months.......and report was submitted.

The chairman received the report, ruled and a position was taken........

Now a COMMON minister from one country, (only one stake holder out of many with "lesser stake ) wrote for an independent probe and it became a serious issues for discuss.

I sense fowl play. Why would you have rules, procedures, mechanism, code of conduct(s) and governing systems in place and you are saying indirectly that they should be junked because of the opinion of one individual.

If the probe should stand, the long and short of it is that the entire system is not functioning and the actors are not competent hence all of them should be relieved of their positions.

Oga there no external investigation before, only internal investigation so, now that they’ve called for external investigation and the bank had accepted, allow them to do their job.

TripleOh7:
It is times like this that I miss Obasanjo.

I can't believe I'm saying this.

You can’t believe you’re saying this because you’re a hypocrite, African mindset like this is what got Adesina into these problems. When you learn how to follow/honor rules/regulations, the better for you.

9gerian:
Libya has not recovered still, Iraq remains vulnerable.

They overlook your shortcomings as a leader if you are an ally but crucify those who love and work for the interest of their countries...

Oga that’s how international politics works. You can’t love my money and at the same times hate my ideas, you’re a hypocrite.

Throwback:
What a blabbing in the assertion that the rules of the institution has to be followed?

Or do you think any findings of an illegal external investigation can be considered binding?

The point made is very valid. You want to try something new? Change the existing rules to accommodate it.

Is it against the bank rules not to accept external investigation? If any of the share holders does not accept the outcome of the internal investigation, don’t they have the right to request for external investigation? These questions are what you should ask yourself first.

kunleham:
What concerns non African in AfDB. Does any African country have interest in Asian Dev. Bank or European Dev. Bank?

How much shares doAfrican countries has in these other continents and how much shares do they have in AfDB? Your president is asking for another 5.something billion loan, how much of these loan is coming from Afiran country? The earlier you begin to understand the international politics, the better for us. For those hoping for other African countries, they won’t hesitate to throw us under the bus just to get few millions dollars from the West.

seunmsg:
The bank’s internal procedures are clear, it is only the ethics committee that can investigate the president. The ethics committee probed him for three good months and found nothing, that should be the end of the matter. If the US want another investigation, there must be an amendment to the rules and regulations of the bank. Corruption cannot be fought through illegality. An independent investigation of the president is in violation of the banks rules, regulations and governance system.

Oga the bank has accepted the the independent investigation, what else are you still blabbing about? The guy involved has already maintained his innocence and also welcomed independent investigation. If he is innocent, he will be exonerated, if not, he will face the consequence. He has all the chance to defend and redeem himself.

Nice one, these criminal governors are like emperors in their respective States, times to put them where they belong. Remaining Local Governments.

Nice one but the gullible sheeple won’t listen.. Laslasticlala front page pls

This man is probably another ABBA kyari or worse..

I know Ibrahim Gambari quite well. I was the one who in 1981 brought him to the UN at his request as a member of the Nigerian delegation. He was then a senior lecturer at the ABU. In fact, the late Prof Audu, who was then Foreign Minister actually advised me against inviting him to the UN. But he had strong academic credentials which impressed me. He had obtained his first degree in political science from the LSE, and a doctorate from Colombia University in New York. We were looking for strong delegates to the UN General Assembly and I considered him the kind of delegates we were looking for.

So, I invited him as one of our delegates to the UN General Assembly. He was at the UN in New York with me. I gave him and his wife my city apartment which I was not using free for 3 months plus a car. I liked him and I was not seeking any favours from him.

After 3 months he returned home and sent me a note thanking me for giving him the first opportunity to visit the UN as a delegate and giving him his first experience at multilateral diplomacy.

However, he sent President Shagari a secret and private note that while he was at the UN, he observed that I had not been attending the meeting of Islamic states at the UN. President Shagari sent the note to Prof Audu who forwarded it to me in New York. He didn’t even ask me for any comments on Gambari’s secret memo as Prof Audu fully understood that Nigeria had traditionally not been attending meetings if the Islamic states as we were not then a member of the Group.

Gambari asked for a private meeting with President Shagari which Prof Audu advised against. I was shocked that someone I had helped so much turned round to betray me so blatantly. I did not tell him I knew about the secret letter he had sent to the UN.

When Shagari was overthrown by Buhari Gambari became Foreign Minister. When career ambassadors were being suddenly retired I was at first not on the list. But Gambari, now FM and Rafindadi, the head of the NSO who had worked under me in London and was now head of the NSO worked together to secure my retirement. In fact, when I called him from New York to confirm from him news about my retirement he first denied it.

Thereafter, he no longer took my calls. In fact, I remained at my post in New York for another 3 months during which the MFA tried to reverse the decision to retire me. I had done absolutely nothing wrong in my entire career in the diplomatic service and only got into trouble for helping a young academic who turned against me to fulfil his own personal ambition. Since then, he and I have only met twice in very difficult circumstances. First at a dinner by a mutual friend in New York several years after my retirement. He could barely look directly at me. He was clearly embarrassed.

Then when Buhari won the elections in 2015 I headed a team that was set up to prepare a paper for him on our Foreign Policy. Subsequently, Alhaji Joda asked him to join the team. Last year, he suddenly called me to ask if I would kindly represent him at a public lecture he had agreed to chair. I told him I could not and that he should look for someone younger. He immediately hung up on me.

Now, ha may be the kind of person Buhari is looking for to succeed Abba Kyari as COS. They are very much alike but Gambari is more subtle and even more dangerous and will substitute the national interests for his own personal interests. I have no doubt about that. What I have written in this long piece is just some of my personal experience and encounter with him.

Everything I have written here is in my memoirs ‘Lest I Forget ‘which he has seen and read. It is nothing new. But I think it important that the character of our top govt officials should be revealed and not covered up. We have, as a nation, paid dearly for supporting appointments to high office that are often detrimental to our nation. Enough is enough and this has to stop.

And only God know how many billions they’ve wasted in this nonsense school feeding program.

The schools on shutdown or which one? This government gets more confused everyday.

Powerintoxicate:
you crazy. Lagos can survive without the FG if Nigeria dissolves today. Infact FG stopped allocation s for four years to Lagos and Lagos survived. Question is can Abuja survive without a federal allocation today ??

You yorubas lie so much. FG never stopped allocation to Lagos, it’s only the local governments. No state in Nigeria including Lagos will survive without FG’s allocation.

My own be say, this Lagos-Ibadan expressway, they no dey complete am .. I’ve been hearing this same Lagos-Ibadan expressway since 1999

Lostz:
anyone said she is the one? or she is just looking for attention

Mumu can’t you see her picture was attached to the tweet as she stated? Think through next time before you post your idiotic comment.

Sunisonflex39:
please i want to ask something..

with all the security checks along that Choba-eleme east west road axis...how did they pass?

Because most Security officials on checkpoints are also cultists so, they know themselves very well.

juwoonn:
No sir. Watch the video again.
He said the guy got the money and went to Bright's house. Then Bright called his friends that the guy is in his house and the money had just entered his account. They probably got his account details/ATM or transfered all the money and kill him and his friends. I'm sure thats how they were traced and arrested.

The bright called the suspects and told them that the guy (one of the victims) betrayed him, that there is money wey enter his account. Meaning the victim brought aza for pickup and as money enter, he begin tell stories.

Akwaibomdude:
The questions am baffled to ask is.
1.Why were they kidnapped at first?
if not for ransom,so what for.
Were they kidnapped just to be killed with kidnappers gaining nothing?

According to the suspect, the person that contracted them to kill the victims claimed that they made a deal and after money entered one of the victims account, he disappeared with the whole money. Even though I don’t support murder, but people should try to honor agreement so as to avoid things like this. It’s one of the victim’s greed that got him and his friends killed.

Ingriid:
sir, I’m not asking what vaccines does and I definitely have no issues with it, but why d force though?

Becuase if it’s not forced, many people won’t get vaccinated thus, endangering the life of people around them. You understand the point now?

spartan117:
How does that make it an atheist forum

Can't you see that your logic is warped


I thought atheists are supposed to be men of sound reasoning

You can’t do without forum developed by someone who don’t believe in the existence of God.. Deal with it.

Seun?
