Well, I take certain things like this with a pinch of salt.

Say what you want about this woman, but I pray I get a woman as supportive and hardworking like her. Even when it seems, everyone else had a different opinion about her husband, she still supported him. In the most trying times sef.

I want a woman ready to stand by me even though the whole world is against me. That would make an ideal wife. Me and her against the world.

I'm down for whatever betters the Nigerian nation.

But raising expectations too much is not a good strategy. Nigerians are now more adept and the popularity of smartphones today has given Nigerians the means of criticizing public officials by accessing numerous information.

SMH for some of these our elders and statesmen.

Yet some of the popular APC governors of today were 'elected' under the PDP. Guess they were also reckless that's why the APC accepted them.

If he had said some, it would have even made more sense.

Common sense they say is truly....

Re.tards!!!

Good thing the transition process is going smoothly, and not being dragged out.

God bless the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
God bless Nigeria.

Great insightful project. Like the Kaduna - Abuja rail


Sad at the level of tribal bigotry shown here. Re.tards everywhere. Na to wish una Happy children's day because I doubt adults act like this.

I think its a balanced report. Showing both the bad sides of both the President and the President elect. Almost similar circumstances of most Nigerians not feeling sorry for GEJ leaving, same way they felt when GMB was overthrown.

The timing though? Is another thing. This week was bad for the GEJ's administration. Too many organizations think they can hold Nigeria to ransom whenever they want to make demands e.g NLC, NUPENG. NMA NUT, ASUU etc and it is the average Nigerian that suffers.


Well happy children's day to our fellow children on Nairaland. Dem many well well. God bless Nigeria.

I'm all for the rule of law, but the last point is laughable. Murder charges....lol
If Amaechi has proof of that and kept it from the police since, then he's in complicity in a murder case.

I think there is a tradition of VIPs visiting 10 Downing Street to take a photo at the iconic doorstep. That being said the other pictures posted by the OP didn't really co-relate with what happened with the president elect. His PR team should just take responsibility for poor planning and learn from it.

Why the anger here na? The office has been vacant since march 31 when the former holder retired. Would you people have prefered the highest judiciary office of the FCT to be vacant?

He's merely nominating an acting judge to be made permanent.

Re.tards everywhere

Finally!!!

We need to find a way to wrest power away from people who think they can hold the country to ransom eg NLC, NUT, ASUU, doctors, NUPENG, PENGASSAN etc who makes a large percentage of Nigerians suffer anytime they want to make demands.


Sadly, I didn't support subsidy removal then.

Well, if most reports are to go by, like people voting in Plateau by 10pm, under-aged voters, malfunctioning card readers, poor attention to scheduled time, missing results sheets, violence etc, then I really don't think he was right in his admission.

Honestly, I'm less surprised these days when it comes to Nigerian politics

Honestly, its a misleading topic.

I still don't understand why some retards are now quick to attack GEJ here. All they asked for here was an explanation from the minister of finance.

DaFuq?

DaFuq?

I know most of the APC supporters will see this as good, but in all honesty, he's still an ordinary Nigerian without the capacity to hold these meetings or be negotiating with these people. 29th is next week. When he's sworn in, then he can start carrying out his duties. For the sake of democracy and the rule of law, he should dial it down or stop outrightly.

Bros Emma!!!!

In Delta state, the federal presence under the Goodluck Jonathan's administration was immense. I see it almost everyday, including the ones still being worked on and yet to be commissioned. From the dredging and rehabilitation of the Warri port, to the NIMASA dockyard, a new federal university, a Maritime university, EPZ, federal roads etc. We've never had it this good from any previous administration. We probably would have had much more here if he had won his 2nd term bid. So, I personally don't see GEJ as someone who betrayed me or my people.

Goodluck Captain Fantastic.

Is the FG owing any state its allocation?

Even if reduced, they were advised to make salaries a priority.

Honestly, I don't know what to think or say about some of these governors.

God bless the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

upsonn:
Nigeria will remain and he will get gbagbo treatment.... He should have to tribunal... He will come out to concede defeat... Gej is nt an hero deal with it.

Apparently, you didn't understand the word 'otherwise' in the question.

The question was 'What would Nigeria have been if the election results were otherwise?'


Ogbeni, next time, don't rush to answer without 1st understanding the question.

egift:
Lagos is a Yoruba land that every Nigerian have the right to live in. The same way Aba is in Aligbo. The issue is, for you or any one to call Lagos, Aba or Kano a No Mans Land is just you being nuisance and spewing your mischievousness to the people who you have developed a deep seated hatred for.

And stop hoping for criminals to cause mayhem. When we start dealing with them, you will still be the one shouting they are killing them, despite being among those that incited the militants to pick up arms. Don't pick a fight that will destroy you.

By this same logic, oil belongs to the Niger Deltans but Nigerians can still benefit from it. It has always been the lifeline of the country.

SMH

I think its time the relevant agencies start sanctioning some of these airlines in accordance to their code of operational conduct.

That's good of him.

Even when he's still playing fair by allowing for peaceful transition by the incoming government, their supporters still run their mouth rabid with insults for him.

To the fellow that doesn't see good in him conceding defeat and not going to the tribunals, I have only 1 question; what would Nigeria have been if the election results were otherwise?

I think most people just hate the fact that despite losing an election, he's still getting praise and acclaim by leaders around the world.

So, when the people from the oil producing communities gets affected by the spilling and environmental pollution from oil activities, some people from other regions will still be reaping the dividends without going through such?

Granted its Nigeria's oil, but these producing areas should have at least been getting that 10%.

I think its hypocrisy for some people to say this is fair and then shout to all heavens when another person says Lagos belongs to no one.

Goodluck sir.

Until proven otherwise, I'll still say that since 1960, no administration has carried out more infrastructural projects than his.

This is why I prefer people not making excuses for GMB. He's not a kid. He's in his 70s. He knew the state of Nigeria before making those promises. He has already told us Nigeria's problems during the campaign period, now, we need solutions, not more complaints of Nigeria's problems.

Please, its high time we start holding our leaders accountable to their promises. And its also high time we stop talking about '16years' ish because many foreigners on this forum will start thinking Nigeria was Dubai before 1999, with quality healthcare system, great educational standards, constant electricity etc. Enough of that please. Some retards on this forum were probably less than 5years old by 1999 sef but will come on here and spill garbage.

Honestly, I wonder what this man was thinking when he signed the Aburi Accord.

Backing out of this accord led to so many atrocities.

People calling them fools fail to realise that before militancy took off in the past few years, very minimal development took place in the Niger Delta. Now compare the Niger Delta to about 7years ago and see much more federal presence.

I may not be an advocate of violence, but these people has seen that Govt can only be strong armed before they take them serious. Coupled with the money associated with it either from Government payments or direct sales of crude on the black market.

Call them 'fools', but the entire country knew what they were losing daily when these guys were in play. That the houses of parliament, the presidency and other intermediaries decided to dialogue with these 'fools' shows you how much power the ND can wield over Nigeria.

Violence is not always the answer, but these 'fools' can still drag the country way down in this current economic crisis.
