Governance in Anambra should be used as a yardstick for other states in this country.

BiggerbossAmani:


You guys should tell me if this is how Refinery are built.

APC propagande, keep marginalizing us.

IPOBian comment? From my moniker? God forbid bad thing! But was the specs of the Tucano that Lebanon bought for 40 million USD, the same as the one Nigeria ordered? We need to compare the BoQ, o! If we are able to do so, and they are identical, all that would be left would then be to compare the base model Tucano, with the type that Lebanon & Nigeria bought, to see if we can justify the huge difference in costs!

laudate:
Would the configuration cost 3 times the original price of the plane? There is something the Presidency is not telling us....!

laudate:
In global supply chain circles, whoever did the procurement and negotiation for these planes, that led to a 3-fold increase in the final cost of the planes, would be sacked on the spot. Training and maintenance/first-level servicing skills are often offered as a free bundle alongside the price, for such machinery, for a limited period of time. Unless we can see a breakdown of the BoQ, or spares along with their prices, it would be premature to attribute the 3-fold increase, to just these things.

As for parts and spares, it is unlikely that parts would be bought for every single item or every single plane in the fleet. What often happens, in the case of heavy-duty machinery and specialised equipment, is that where multiple units are ordered together at the same time, parts are bought for a percentage of them - maybe half of them. It is unlikely that all planes in the fleet would go bad at the same time, or develop identical faults within the same period, except if there is a design flaw. There is also a warranty which lasts for like 6 months - 1 year on sich specialised equipment. I still say, there is something the Presidency, is not telling us.....

The Lebanese Army received the first two A-29B Super Tucano light attack aircraft from the U.S. on Oct. 31 during a handover ceremony held at Hamat Air Base, north of the capital Beirut.

The two aircraft are the first of six that will be provided by the U.S. to the Lebanese Army within the framework of the military aid program to the country.

“The A-29’s advanced technology provides [Lebanese Armed Forces] precision-guided munitions and advanced precision-strike capability,” said U.S. Ambassador Elizabeth Richard during a speech at the event. “The LAF will now be able to conduct joint combined arms maneuvers in all conditions, day and night, in a way that greatly reduces the risk of collateral damage and the danger to noncombatants.”


In all, the aid is worth about $240 million, including basic cost of the aircraft ($204 million), the cost of ammunition and armament ($10 million) and the cost of the training ($12 million)

Idiotic Pigs Of Buhari are not only idiots but useless. Reason why Buhari is sending them to the farm to be slaughtered by his Fulani brothers.

Troublemaker007:
I noticed not one single southerner in Buhari traveling convoy and Dangote now accompany Buhari a lot when he travels which is a clear picture that Buhari has always had shares in Dangote Group. Anywhere I catch Goodluck eh! It’s either I die, he dies, we die or somebody dies. He handed over Nigeria to the worst man who is filled with so much nepotism, tribalism and religious bigotry in the history of Nigeria.

Quote me and die in your sleep this night.

Bede2u:
The only person embarrassing himself here is u. Google macron again and tell us if he is a prime minister

If the flags were lined during Merkel's visit and not lined when Buhari visited, your type won't call it wash. You will abuse PMB and tell us how Trump detested him.

sweerychick:
Mr ignoramus! The president is the head of state and it's different from that of a chancellor both have different protocols during official diplomatic visits to other countries. This is because she reports to president and the both work in hand! Yes the chancellor or the prime minister in parliamentary rule is the head of government and she forms her government and reports to the head of state which happens to be either the president or the Queen ( as in United kingdom) or whoever is the head in the country.
And need I remind you that Germany has a president too! Mr I know too much about nothing.

sweerychick:
Lol Angela Merkel is not a president! She's just the chancellor equivalent to that of a prime minister! So both have different protocols.

Guy I hope your mother is OK

Let me just check before I know the next thing?

Is she well

badesco:
The American said it received $400 million so what happen to the remaining $69 million balance?

JSMMUYIWA:
I think you understand what I'm saying.
Wonder why some people just leave the intrinsic nature of things to nag on the superficial ones!
Thank you Jare.

aribisala0:
Nigeria beautiful? Even if you are not a genius how can you believe that from someone who has never been there? How? Trump is an international businessman over 70 years old and has never bothered to visit

I am not one of those people who loves or hates Buhari emotionally I really am not that invested but the reality is that this visit achieved nothing. It was a complete waste of time as far as Nigeria is concerned. This visit was PURELY for Buhari's electoral fortunes next year.

The CIA is very active in Nigeria and Buhari is terrrified of the US
Nigeria is being screwed on the helicopter deal , surrounded by US bases in our neighbouring countries. BBuhari knows they can snuff him out easily and is trying to curry favour

He will come back empty handed.

He is saying he wants to grow agriculture and he wants US help is that not foolish when the US wants us to buy their corn and rice and soya and chicken .
The US is NOT our friend. FACT

JSMMUYIWA:
Lol....
Well he wasn't himself to have call for invitation after all?
If only you are aware the agreement doesn't end just there.
True at the fact Trump would want American to benefit, but there isn't a way we won't benefit too.
We have have our smart guys on tour with the President.
N. B:Both Presidents presentations and agreements is a product of their economic experts. I don't think we can settle for our deprivation on a normal setting.
I really believe so.

Shehucom:
You pipu Must Sha find something to use in attacking the president... Well, Baba didn't disappoint as y'all expected

aribisala0:
What a delusional statement?

Rescinded?

No it was not rescinded rather it was reinforced . He said in front of Buhari that some of "those countries are in very bad shape"


He more or less admitted that he said it
