Just in case ... You know the rest.



...But I was almost tempted to believe it is real, then I paused and behold there wasn't T.A. Orji's name.
... For I dare to challenge any list of corrupt politician that omits Orji's name.
Wait a minute. How comes they are all APC governors?.

Liverpoolfc manager Brendan Rogers has expressed his delight on English born Nigerian player, Jordon Ashley Femi Ibe. He was speaking after the club's latest preseason against Malaysia side. This was what he about Ibe: "He’s been outstanding since he's been out here and he's staken a real claim to start the season in the team. [It was a] wonderful goal, I thought he was a threat all night with his pace, his quality and it was wonderful finish cutting inside and a great strike. He was very good and like I say he has been working very hard"

The militant group, Boko Haram, is planning to bomb the homes of VIPs, and not the residence of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, the VP’s office said Thursday. The clarification came after media reports quoted the presidency’s initial claim that Mr. Osinbajo’s home was targeted. The vice president’s spokesperson, Laolu Akande, said that claim, sourced by journalists from the text of a press briefing after Thursday’s National Economic Council, was a typographical error. “A press briefing note circulated today by the Secretariat of the National Economic Council, NEC, contains a typo on the very last line of the last paragraph. “That paragraph should read ‘The Vice President also disclosed that security reports has it that scavengers are now being prepared by insurgents to dump refuse laden with bombs in the houses of VIPs’. “The last line erroneously says ‘in the house of the Vice President’,” Mr. Akande said in a statement after the media reports. The earlier text said intelligence had confirmed that Mr. Osinbajo’s residence was being targeted for bombing. During Mr. Osinbajo’s recent tour of Adamawa and Borno states, two suicide bombers had blown themselves up outside a village in Maiduguri while he was in Borno.

Sunday Oliseh, the new coach of Nigeria has
returned to his base in Belgium. A Nigerian
Football Federation (NFF) spokesman said Oliseh
“has gone back but temporarily. He hasn’t gone
finally because you know we have a game against
Tanzania very soon and most of our players are in
Europe.”
This has kicked off a debate among Nigerian fans
around why the coach should not be based in
Nigeria, especially as his remit includes
overseeing the development of the game and
coaching in the country.
The first thing is that Oliseh will be judged on how
well the national team performs. So that should
be his first piority. The overwhelming majority of
the squad is based in Europe. It takes an
incredible suspension of rational thinking to want
the coach to be based in Nigeria, while practically
all his players are based in Europe.
Some have argued that he needs to live in Nigeria
to be able to find good players in the domestic
league. But most half decent domestic league
players sign for foreign clubs before they are good
enough for international duty. Oliseh should not
be in Nigeria just to find the odd player in the
local league that may be good enough for the
national team. That’s what his assistants should
be doing.
A national team coach is meant to watch his
players performing in their league matches as
many times as possible. If most of your players
are in Europe, it is a logistical nightmare
operating out of Nigeria. Previous coaches have
tended to invite players to the national team
training camp “to see what they can do”. This is
wrong. The coach should watch them performing
for their clubs, monitor their form, and then
decide whether they are worthy of a call up.
The national team would benefit from regular
training camps and get-together sessions during
international breaks when Nigeria does not have a
match. This should help the team gel and
contribute towards building team chemistry. It is
a lot easier to have these in Europe, considering
where most of our players are based. Oliseh
should use his European contacts to secure a
training base for the team in, perhaps, Belgium.
This would go a long way in achieving the
objective of getting the “Super Eagles” to play as
a team and not as individuals, which he set out
when he was appointed.

Criminality in the Oil industry is in layers. Vandalism is just one amongst Many.

You have said it all. And so it is in every sector of this our nation. The most annoying problem is that when you choose to be different, they call you names. This is the toughest nation for a morally principled person to survive in

Buhari didn't have a certificate yet he became a president.What did Jona with alll his PHD achieve is his 6yrs in office?

What is your own achievement?Degree?

Joke

Oga! Achievement or no achievement is not the issue here. The issue is Buhari is now the president. We don't need any certificate now. Why is he and his party men trying to fool Nigerians? The issue is gone, let him concentrate and perform his duties. There are a lot of things that need immediate and serious attention not none-existing certificate. APC should forget about this their propaganda of political weapon. It has expired.

PEREP:
GEJ/PMB, Nigeria won.

I think you're displaying your ignorance here! go and look for that news again. The refineries were to commence operation by June, 2015 but there were little set backs. The job was started and almost completed by GEJ administration if not for the set back. I think GEJ deserves credit not the other way round. Thank you.

these are the reasons why Nigeria might never get better: disgusting sentiments. A refinery is yet to start function, and you all are killing yourselves on who should or shouldn't take the glory, while the politicians keep taking advantage of your stupid sentiment that has made you all to be permanently ignorant of your rights
