We say the Fulani herdsmen are rascals but where are our own rascals when we need them.......oh there they are "obtaining" innocent traders and buyers while fulanis are raping their heritage! Instead of coming to nairaland to make noise (there are no fulanis here as they are in the bush plotting their next village to raid which could be yours) why not teach your rascals to be more useful. Don't they see those beautiful Fulani women? Go raid their dirty camps, string up their niggas ISIS style and take ur choice of Fulani woman home. That's what they are doing to u. Do it to them, and ya'll stop bit*hing here! Cowards!

Eyah! Grammer and more Grammer! Mouth action and nothing else. Let a yoruba man tell ACF elders to shut up in Zaria and wait to see the repercussion! At least the Ibos had balls to try to pull away and are still yearning to do so! Proud of them anyway. I am not Ibo but i wish I was one. I am not Yoruba and never wish to be. I love my hero Awolowo but his people........i leave that their mouth action for another day!

Lekan, Did you not notice that all the fools shouting on-top of their voice over the issue are these brainless Nyamirins?
We know their tricks since 1965!

Thank you for your sensible post.
That is why you are a "PROUD YORUBA Son".
Your intelligence is "native"..... it is in your genes.
O'odua a'gbe e

Those Yiibo clowns have not gotten over the pain of their defeat since 1970!
They think they can "trick" the Yorubas into a war, with the Northerner, so they can take advantage of the CHAOS, to achieve their Biafra!
That is the A-Z of their evil plan so when you see them "crying more than the bereaved", no that it is a cry of the TRAITOR the have always been.

I repeat, the dullest Yoruba is smarter than the smartest (if there was one) Yiibo that ever lived.
We are too sophisticated for their level of stewpidity.

Let them keep #wailing ......while we keep progressing.

Abugab:
Op, Omojuwa is not an APC activist but a Nigerian who is committed to a stable social order by being objectively critical of issues of national importance.
The title is quite unfair to what the young man stands for.

The short man just woke up!

President Buhari and His Legion of Sycophants

with Yemi Adebowale

The biggest problem facing most African leaders is their inability to learn from history. I would have urged our dear President Muhammadu Buhari to watch the soap opera called “The Father and His Son”. This is a true life story of former President Goodluck Jonathan (outside power) and his “father”, Chief E K Clark. The Ijaw chief who was behind most of the actions and inactions of Jonathan when he was in power has suddenly started “exposing” the weaknesses of his “son”. This is the price Jonathan is paying for surrounding himself with mainly sycophants while in power. I won’t bother advising Buhari to monitor the soap opera. He has also similarly surrounded himself with a legion of sycophants. None of them is prepared to tell him to his face that he is dragging this country to the precipice. Those around him are thinking more about their gains; so, they are not prepared to drag him out of his delusion.

Only Buhari and those benefiting from his administration believe he is making progress in the war against Boko Haram, anti-corruption, the economy and other countless challenges facing this country. How can Buhari say that he is making progress in the war against Boko Haram when the situation in the North-east has gone from bad to worse? The earlier he faces the reality of his failure and changes his strategy in the war, the better for this nation.

The last five months have been horrendous for residents of Borno, Adamawa and Yobe states. Almost 1500 lives have been lost to Boko Haram in 151 days. We have never had it so bad. It is a shame that nobody is telling the President that he is not doing well in this war. The governors of Borno and Yobe states have suddenly become mute. Each time Buhari makes his unworkable trips to Western countries in search of help to tackle the terrorists, these sycophants hail him. They even tell us that junketing round the globe is an achievement.

We are obviously not feeling the impacts of his trips to France, Germany and United States in this war against Boko Haram. So, why is he not looking towards Russia and China? These sycophants won’t draw his attention to all these. Thanks to Allah, South African mercenaries are returning to battle the bastards called Boko Haram. I had spent the last four months agitating for this; those around Buhari were not patriotic to tell him this truth.

This is a President that told us that he would lead the war against Boko Haram from “the front.” Five months after, he is yet to visit our gallant soldiers on the war front. He is not even thinking about directly supervising the war by making himself Defence Minister. Our dear Buhari is thinking more about making himself oil minister. What an irony. As normal in this part of the world, those around him are still saluting him.

The economy of our nation is sliding and nobody around our President is prepared to tell him the truth. Several homes across the nation are struggling to survive. Many homes are sliding below poverty line. Inflation hit a record 9.4 per cent in September. Our Naira is badly battered. Our GDP is sliding. Industrial capacity utilization is plummeting. Companies are throwing out thousands of people into the labour market. Just look around you and you will see millions of jobless youth. There is hardly any home without somebody searching for job. About 60,000 construction workers have lost their jobs in the last four months, so says the National Union of Civil Engineering Construction, Furniture and Wood Workers.

The union’s President, Comrade Amechi Asugwuni, blamed the development on the country’s economic downturn. Asugwuni said: “The economy is slowing and promised infrastructure reforms are taking too long to implement.” An army of jobless youth is a time bomb that may consume this country if the government fails to act appropriately. Governance is not just about making noise about anti-corruption. A good government must create an enabling environment for industrial growth and optimum capacity utilization. Promotion of commercial agriculture is also pertinent.

Nobody is telling our President that all economic indices are on the negative side in Nigeria. The market capitalisation of the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) depreciated by N489 billion in the third quarter of 2015 as it fell from N11.218 trillion as at July 1, to N10.729 trillion on September 30. Cautious trading by investors has continued to pervade the market as a lot of them continue to watch from the sidelines, awaiting a clear economic direction from Mr. President. The Nigerian Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture (NACCIMA) recently rated the nation’s economic performance at the end of the third quarter as “low and below expectations” following inability of the federal government to put in place, policy thrusts expected to drive the economy. “It is important to note that what an average Nigerian desire at the moment is for the ‘Change’ they voted for to be translated into a significant positive impact on the real sector and the economy in general,” declared Chief Bassey Edem, NACCIMA’s National President. Those around Buhari would not allow him to read honest remarks like this one from the real sector.

The Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) also stated: “Significant disruptions, distortions and dislocations have been created in the business environment by the CBN as a consequence of the restrictions on the use of export proceeds, denial of access to foreign exchange market for many products, including critical inputs needed in manufacturing and service sectors, prohibition of cash lodgments into domiciliary accounts, tight exchange controls and administrative allocation of foreign exchange which are typically characterised by lack of transparency, corruption and considerable abuse.

“The economy is now faced with a scenario where there is much pressure to move funds out of the economy than moving funds into the economy. This can be likened to a run on a system. This is a typical scenario which a confidence crisis would create. Future international trade transactions, financial and investment relations are now at risk. Round tripping of forex has continued to flourish because of the disparity in the exchange rate between the official and parallel market. Inflow of forex into the two autonomous sources has been adversely affected.

It is worthy of note that Diaspora funds into the country was about $23 billion in 2013. The current policy will discourage the inflow of such funds which normally help to strengthen the supply side of the foreign exchange.”
It is a shame that those around Buhari are not urging him to respond to the reservations of a major stakeholder like NACCIMA and the LCCI on the economic crisis facing the nation.

Our President says he is making progress in the war against corruption and those around him are hailing him. There are too selfish to tell him that he is just deceiving himself. None of them is prepared to ask him to point to one high profile conviction he got in the last five months. Anti-corruption is not just about the number of people invited by the EFCC. What we have been witnessing in the last five months are mainly media trials and convictions of mainly his opponents. Nobody around him is prepared to tell our President that most people around him have big corruption questions hanging on their necks. Even Indi Dikko who headed Customs, regarded as one of the most corrupt government agencies, simply got a hand shake and pat on the back from our President.

Governors who stole their states dry are getting bailouts from Buhari. Most of these governors collected 8 to 10 months of allocations without paying ordinary one month salary to civil servants. I thought that in the spirit of anti-corruption, Buhari would first ask these squandering governors to account for the monthly largesse they collected from Abuja. He simply gave them over N500 billion bailout and those around him hailed the action.

Aside from ministerial appointments, 80% of Buhari’s other political and non-political appointments are lopsided in favour of the North. He is so happy with this. He does it with so much impunity. Those around are telling our President to ride on with his skewed appointments and that other parts of the country do not matter. He has continued without regard for the constitution and the fact that he was elected President of the whole country.

Buhari has simply abandoned governance and development. All we hear these days is war against corruption. Nobody around him is prepared to tell him that in almost five months, he is yet to impact on key areas like security, welfare, the economy, health, education, road, agriculture, housing, etc. They keep massaging his ego that he is doing very well and our dear President is enjoying all the salutations.
My message to Buhari this morning is very simple: Wise leaders listen more to their critics than supporters and friends.

ThisDaylive

can't you see they are shi**ing their pants?

So what you voted for is "good news" and not the actual reduction, which If you read Osinbajo comments is a mirage abi? You nor hear yourself! Self deceit na bad thing! E nor go beta for self deceit o!

EdCure:
Good news like this is what we yearned for when we campaigned and voted for CHANGE.

Rubbish post meant to deceive those who found it "helpful"

"Where no return has been made" Take note that Senate rejection of Amaechi (if it so decides) and communicated to Buhari is a "return" which the President can't go against constitutionally! The president would have no option than to nominate someone else. Simples!

leksy07:
Following the dubious suggestion by Senator Dino Melaye that at least two Senators from the state of origin of a ministerial nominee must endorse the nominee to pass the ministerial screening, we decided to do a research on the matter. We found four pertinent provisions in the constitution and one Senate Standing Rule relating to appointment and screening of ministers. None of these laws referred to the compulsory endorsement of a nominee by at least two Senators from the nominee’s state of origin. Our investigation focused on sections 147(1-3, 6) of the constitution, and section 120 of the Senate Standing Rules. For ease of readership, we have endeavoured to explain these laws into three parts as discussed below:

Part 1: Section 147 of the Constitution:

(1) “There shall be such offices of Ministers of the Government of the Federation as may be established by the President.”

(2) “Any appointment to the office of Minister of the Government of the Federation shall, if the nomination of any person to such office is confirmed by the Senate, be made by the President.”

(3) “Any appointment under subsection (2) of this section by the President shall be in conformity with the provisions of section 14(3) of this Constitution:-

Provided that in giving effect to the provisions aforesaid the President shall appoint at least one Minister from each State, who shall be an indigene of such State.”

(6) “An appointment to any of the offices aforesaid shall be deemed to have been made where no return has been received from the Senate within twenty-one working days of the receipt of nomination by the Senate.”

Part 2: The Senate Standing Rules:

Section 120: “That the Senate shall not consider the nomination of any person, who has held any public office as contained in Part 2 of the Fifth Schedule of the Constitution prior to his nomination unless there is a written evidence that he has declared his assets and liabilities as required by Section 11(1) of Part 1 of the Fifth Schedule of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria; such declaration shall be required for scrutiny by the senators.”

Part 3: Explaining the legal jargon:

Section 147(1) is the relevant section of the Nigerian constitution that empowers the President to appoint ministers in the first instance. Section 147(2) stipulates that the President’s nominees as ministers shall be confirmed by the Senate. Section 147(3) stipulates that the President should appoint at least one minister from each of the 36 states of the federation. Even though Section 147(3) empowers the Senate to confirm the President’s nominations, section 147(6) empowers the President to ratify the nominees if the Senate fails to confirm them after 21 days of submission of their names to the Senate.

The constitution has clearly favoured the President over the Senate in this matter. This explains why the Bukola Saraki cabal in the Senate has been restless, and misleading the public about an illegal compulsory endorsement of a nominee by two Senators of the nominee’s state of origin. Note that when Dino Melaye addressed the press regarding this issue on Thursday (29/9/2015), he explained sections 147(1-3). However, section 147(6) was conspicuously missing from his explanation.

Despite the fact that the Senate President himself is at the Code of Conduct Tribunal for grandeur theft, money laundering and failure to declare his assets, which makes him hardly a role model for the ministers, for the sake of transparency, integrity and accountability of the screening process, we the masses strongly endorse a strict enforcement of section 120 of the Senate Standing Rules eluded to above.

We however reject the preposterous suggestion that the nominees must be endorsed by at least two Senators from their state of origin. We contend that imposing this bogus condition under the current political climate will simply introduce avenues for bribery, corruption, and unnecessary delay ratifying the ministers.
.

May God save Nigeria and Nigerians. Amen.

Save it for the Hausa-fulanis who keep killing/kidnapping all over the place. You should be angry over what they did to your elder Falae. The Igbos are only showing their humility and respect that has seen them embraced in every country on earth! Reply if you think i am Yoruba

Hope the ethnic warlords are learning one or two things from here.

What about your own trial? When is it starting? Or you think we don't know you contravened WAEC/JAMB rules during your examinations? If you know you cheated, please reply!

I can buy it.....but what can it do for me that my BB passport wont?

Buhari will turn this boy into a hero. Mark it!

He took the place of Abobaku who ran to the Synagogue for sanctuary?

Hug and kiss her on the cheek. You will lighten up her heart with a beautiful smile. *sigh* I wish my mom was alive!

jimmyolasun:
Well mr charlie, hmmm... *Gonna call my mum* been a while I heard from her... The old nurse go don old ooo... *See as money carry me away*

Saraki be warned! This is a "flanking move" by the warring Buhari/Tinubu camp to decimate you and take over your structure. You are target number one. Make no mistake about that. Once you are dealt with, Buhari and Tinubu will face each other in a battle to political death! So be wise. Be a fox and a lion now! You MUST hit them during the ministerial screening exercise. Hit them because it will hurt them. DO NOT use that screening to fortify them by clearing those with "comma". Use the law and Senate convention to your MAXIMUM advantage! Remember the Afonja syndrome! It may seem that Buhari/Tinube are at war. They are but note this.... It is a two-pronged attack! The sword cuts either way! Saraki, the enemy of your enemy is your enemy! Take note!

So? Did they specifically mention her name?

OnReflection:
The National Crime Agency thinks otherwise.

A most respectable and responsible bow out! Oliseh got this wrong. Enyeama just lost his mother and buried her this weekend. That he got to camp barely 48 hours after he buried his mother, when he should be in mourning, speak volumes of his patriotism and love for country. That he arrived camp late is therefore understandable. That Oliseh refused to show empathy but rather displayed complete lack of tact and communication skills leave so much to be desired. As it is now, we haven't heard the full story but one thing is clear, if you lose your mother so dear to you, it is understandable when you display emotions. For now, Oliseh disappointed me.

Easy, trek for buhari don start be dat...hoping that before you reach Abaji, Presidential committee will be waiting to escort you to the villa where you will get a new job as Buhari's PA!

Meanwhile.....

How did oil money become our money? Did you mean "Cocoa Money"?

uselessgoat:
[size=20pt]This woman must be killed for wasting our oil money. Imagine what she and jonathan did to this country in 6 years. We yoruba's and Hausa fulani's will never allow such minorities in Power anymore because it obvious those people are heartless. GEJ and Madueke are from Bayelsa and nothing to show for it in their state.

OUR OIL MONEY MUST NOT BE LOOTED IN VAIN. BUHARI HAVE TO RECOVER THE MONEY AND KILL THIS HEARTLESS WOMAN AND OTHER CO LOOTERS[/size]

What could she have done differently to get Buhari up on time to attend the meeting with the Pope? Massage him with olive oil while titillating his senses with vanilla ice cream? Perhaps she's to be blamed too for the APC meeting held at ICC Abuja which he failed to attend because he slept off and which created the lacuna that Saraki exploited. Abi?

Wait a second! Has APC taken the patent on imbecility? What nonsense. "Smash the plot?" Which security agency can legitimately stop due process in an independent arm of government. That's it! APC, you FINALLY lost me! Amourahia!

Seun, there's something called "innocent until proven guilty". Have you heard about that before? I guess you havent hence the invectives. Meet Joe Okei-Odumakin for a proper lecture. You are way out of line here!

Oya, tell us about Tinubu's own! At least Daura has declared something!

Hypocrisy is when you welcome Saraki as a progressive into the APC, hailed him when he invested his "stolen" wealth in APC but don't want him to reap where he sowed and you now call him a PDP politician and a thief because he refused to allow the enslavement of the National Assembly to your dictator. You also need to examine the content of your character!
