Chai! Its seems as if black people like to over do things at times. If you tell them to wear jeans to work they would take it a step further and probably come to work with bum shorts or cut up jeans showing thighs and even there backsides at times.
If you tell them to pose for pre-wedding picture they would want to do extra to gain more attention. Why do some people like taking things too far?

RichYoungNigger:
Why won't you be hale and hearty and alive when your gay lover "Buhari" is the president and he's planning on selling Nigerian Liquefied Natural Gas (NLNG) and the three refineries in Kaduna, Warri (Delta State) and Port Harcourt (Rivers State).

What's wrong with privatization? It worked in the Telecoms industry didn't it?

This country would be better off if those assets were being run by private enterprise as supposed to being run by the govts. There is a reason why Naija does not work and its because it has a huge overbearing government that tries to run everything. Govts have no business getting involved in industry (except when they are regulating it). STATISM does not work!

stat·ism

ˈstātˌizəm/Submit
noun

a political system in which the state has substantial centralized control over social and economic affairs.

Example: Nigeria practices statism.
Another example: Statism has failed woefully in Nigeria.

PoliticsRe: I Can’t Predict When Recession Will End – Finance Minister by davidif: 8:40am On Sep 26, 2016
just2endowed:
Hmmmm as a finance minister, I believe she should be vast in statistical analysis and she should have all information and data in his table.

But this minister had goofed again big time by telling us she doesn't have data to analyze the situation.

This government is something else
You can't predict the time frame of a recession no matter how educated you are. But what you should be able to do is to put measures in place to lead the country out of it and from the looks of things, this woman does not seem to know what to do.

Thoniameek:
We shouldn't copy everything American.

As of now capitalism isn't good for Nigeria and Nigerians (we are greedy enough)

We should find a system that works for us as Africans, so far we've been threading on the part of our colonial masters; which hasn't done much good for us.....
Wrong!!!! Capitalism is not solely an American thing its a universal thing. Its the oldest form of economics. Everyone taking care of themselves and doing what's best for themselves.


[size=14pt]capitalism[/size]

noun cap·i·tal·ism \ˈka-pə-tə-ˌliz-əm, ˈkap-tə-, British also kə-ˈpi-tə-\
Full Definition of capitalism

: an economic system characterized by private or corporate ownership of capital goods, by investments that are determined by private decision, and by prices, production, and the distribution of goods that are determined mainly by competition in a free market

"Capitalism is an economic system in which capital goods are owned by private individuals or business partners. The purest form of capitalism is free market or laissez-faire capitalism, in which private individuals are free to determine where to invest, what to produce or sell, and at which prices to exchange goods and services. Most modern countries practice a highly regulated and mixed capitalist system."

http://www.investopedia.com/terms/c/capitalism.asp

"Capitalism is an economic system based on private ownership of the means of production and their operation for profit. Characteristics central to capitalism include private property, capital accumulation, wage labor, voluntary exchange, a price system, and competitive markets. In a capitalist market economy, decision-making and investment is determined by the owners of the factors of production in financial and capital markets, and prices and the distribution of goods are mainly determined by competition in the market."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalism

"Capitalism is moral and practical as it leaves the individual free to think rationally and act productively to sustain ones life and experience happiness on earth."

PoliticsRe: Sale Of National Assets Needed To Fund 2016 Budget – FG by davidif: 2:23am On Sep 26, 2016

http://punchng.com/sale-national-assets-needed-fund-2016-budget-fg/



APC are a bunch of scammers!They plan on selling National Assets to fund the 2016 budget. Will they sell Nigerians into slavery to fund the 2017 Budget?This is the problem with Africans and the black man, inherently corrupt and short sighted.
Behind the scenes the arrangement has already been concluded and the price tag of $15 billion re-echoed by Dangote and CBN Governor Emefiele for the assets has been finalised.The conspiracy is now in the next stage to implement to sale regardless of the fact most Nigerians oppose it,that is why Buhari wants Emergency powers.
The money Dangote,Saraki,Wale Tinubu,David Mark that was exposed they were hiding in Panama Central America earlier this year through briefcase companies in the leaks to avoid paying taxes and storing their loot will be used to purchase the assets at rock bottom prices.
What's wrong with selling national assets? we did it with NEPA and NITEL.

PoliticsRe: Why Do Our Governors Enjoy Immunity??... by davidif: 9:48pm On Sep 25, 2016
Izonpikin:
we can manage with the president covered by immunity as the commander in chief...but why should our filthy governors who do nothing enjoy immunity...huh?...just take a look at what out governors do to us and tell me if immunity shouldn't be taken off them.. angry

A governor is elected, steals money from the state coffers and all we have to do is wait until his tenure ends to even prObe him..

How can we move forward...Our Constitution needs serious restructuring...
In addition to that need to stop allocation.
PoliticsRe: Why Do Our Governors Enjoy Immunity??... by davidif:
mikolo80:
1. the constitution(rule book) says so
2.too many frivolous suits would be filed on daily basis thereby hampering any productive anything
3. still doesn't matter cos they will just bribe the lawyers and judges and witnesses and police(like wike is doing now)
1. You have to write a constitution that reflects your society.
2. The Governor needs to be accountable to his constituents and that means not being protected from criminal charges (not civil lawsuits).
3. The Attorney generals and state judges should be elected by the people just like the Governor is. This is how things work in a lot advanced democracies.
4. There should also be a provision in each states constitution that allows for a governor to be recalled (a mandate for a new election) If the people don't have confidence in him like they do in California.

Emyogalanya:
That's how lugards country was programmed not for progress but exploitation. A country made with just one unhealthy reason : administrative convenience . To whose benefit : UK . Its not created for progress so whoever gets there does that for same purpose and all policies point to same thing. If only u can recall ahead bello speech r12 Oct 1960 then u will get the drift . Back to bayelsa take a look at the market road under bridge worn out roads yet frsc has the guts to arrest poor drivers for using worn out tires . Who then arrests the government for the worn out roads that actually kill the tires of the drivers? I'm rather than take away immunities let them devise a means where gov. Who don't work should be stopped from receiving tax etc . Without immunity legal suits can distract them like diction sylva case. God bless ss/se people
So you prefer the status quo? Na wa o. No one should be above the law. I would prefer the governor face lawsuits than to be free from accountability. That's what they call the rule of law and withour it, this country can't reach it's potential.


As far as i am concerned, the Governor should only be immune from civil lawsuits and not from criminal charges like corruption.

70% ke? How exactly do you know that? Stop pulling out ransom numbers out of your head.

Also, if you truly believe that most Nigerian girls that are disvirgined are raped then I am a Nigerian prince.
