Rubbish. .... absolute rubbish

The suffering is real and tangible for christ's sake. These continued town hall meetings are distractions.... fix the damn problems.

When will the petrol queues be ending?
When are we getting to the power supply level as at May 29th?
10k naira cant even do a decent weekend shopping as the prices of items has gone over the roof

o ye Wailers, ..The town hall meetings are very important to keep the public informed of efforts and progresses made. Also to hear directly from the public

THE Same Willy Ezeugwu that collected million from PDP in the last election
Criminals everywhere

the Niger Delta People should be very proud of this their son.

fragrant:
The plane wey kill my papa.

God Bless your family.

LadyExcellency:
Almost the same reason they gave to stop 2nd Niger bridge.

When has the welfare of local easterners become the priority of FG that they now feign to advocate for them.

Even when the environmental assessment has been concluded months ago, they still question the conclusions.

Evil men.

Stop spreading lies, The 2nd Niger Bridge is on course.. Fashola has repeated this severally

Leiman100:
for you to see any sense in his senseless statement shows your own sickness is a cultivated one

Leiman100:
After all the verbiage, he nailed his own coffin by admitting that he collected money from a company that Nenadi Usman have interest in. When it was clear that Nenadi Usman clearly received the money directly into her account from the centrak bank. No amount of distraction(s) will slow down the war on corruption, is no more business as usual!

My wailing brothers didnt read tha part...

beGOOD4aba:
Hypocrisy is when PDP is forced, intimidated, harassed and blackmailed into accounting for their campaign fund and d APC is made untouchable. Am already thinking that their own campaign fund rained like manna from heaven and not just ill-gotten.

If you were a bit informed and objective you should know they are investigating how sourced loans amounting to $2.7 billion mean't for arms to fight the insurgency ended up in the private accounts of PDP leaders as election campaign fund.

realman4me:
Apc enjoy ur oppression while it last. I so ooooooooooooooooooooo pity ur members wen Pdp- take over 2019 huuuuuummmm body go tell una.

There would be no soul left in PDP by 2019 to contest anything

Lionsclaw:
If you really want the progress of Nigeria when are you going to ask the EFCC for their inquiries into the billions equally used for APC campaign. The APC campaign director was a sitting governor. Pls tell me you trust and believe all APC funds are from contributions and Amaechi and other governors in APC are clean.
See you are decieving yourself

Why dont you write a Petition about the billions allegedly used by the APC for campaigns and send same to the EFCC

amtaken:
Buhari thinks he's fighting the opposition not knowing that he's tarnishing his image to the world.


A good and responsible president shouldn't be bothered much about the opposition after all clear conscience fears no accusation.

Buhari has indeed turned out worse than we anticipated.
ition,

On the contrary, PMB is doing just fine...

Buhari is not bothered about the opposition, if you were an intelligent observer you should have known this by now. Y'll shouted at the top of your voices on nnamdi kanu, Badeh, Dasuki, Metuh and his foreign trips, PMB didnt bat an eyelid, what makes you feel he cares out the rantings or wailings of GEJs disciples , when it comes to a case of corruption.

Well done Magu, you're doing a great Job..

SamuelAnyawu:
Dear Buhari No Light, No Fuel, How can I read Internet news?

this line is becoming stale.. if we take a closer look, we may find your phcn line was cut because you're owing.

$15 billion national Pilot must be aan IPOBian Newspaper in the same league as Breaakingtimes, Igberetv, trentonline.. news blogs all founded from March 30th - May 29th 2015

90xtr0r:
Wake up from your delusion, the 1966 charms of propaganda and lies against Igbos is no longer working. Your once poisonous fangs has lost its potency.

The Govt should please do everything possible to keep him alive..




He needs to Spend Serious Time in Prison

this is Imo State, not Anambra...











*flees the thread*

We may not have congresses then, Everyone in PDP is corrupt.

Any state ruled by an APC governor must be beautiful, The Governors cant stand dirtiness like we see in Most PDP state, Abia, Rivers et al.. Imo State is proud to be Associated with the APC.
Ride on Rochas
Sai Okorocha
Sai APC.

Schematics:
This is quite sad that there is no impressive infrastructure in the entire Owerri. The state capital does not have ambitious infrastructure. It is appalling because this is more like a rural town. Let's get to see some landmark masterpieces like this below that can distinguish the area.

this is awka

TANTUMERGO007:
And your girlfriend must be a 'waillee'

I think you need to go back to your sleep.

It was a corruption and Looting Bazaar during the GEJ years of misrule..

Your boyfriend must be an Ipobian or Wailer..

Sunnycliff:
Keep dreaming! If a man spends 4hrs to get fuel is it fair

4 hours to fill the tank every 2 weeks, is a little sacrifice to make for Change.

freeze001:
No...they cannot be commended for practically running the country aground. You need to realise that failure on their part to grow some maturity, patriotism and understanding of Nigeria first before themselves will constantly trail this administration.

The implication in the long run is that citizens will constantly be inundated with one form of one upmanship or another. We can't keep having such madness and they're being paid stupendously!

Yes they should, you should know we have a new Government in place, new ways , new methods, not the usual corrupt padi padi way that characterised GEJ's misrule, it may be difficult at first but you should know this brouhaha wouldnt repeat itself with the next budget. Nigerians have never been this interested in what their budget entailed and that gave room to all sorts of nonsense in the previous administration.. Objective folks would appreciate the openness shown by this administration with this budget.

Infinitikoncept:
So its Nigerians that forced them to spit shithole claiming they signed a currency swap just to score cheap political point abi? Gerrahere

No you read but you dont understand...

freeze001:
I still maintain that incompetence, greed and corruption are the hallmarks of this administration. Getting things right ought to have started from picking his team early particularly for crucial areas. I certainly expected a complete departure from previous budgetary provisions and allocations which will reflect the reality of the current economic situation. Instead recurrent expenditure is increased even more eg Aso rock feeding expenses, state house hospital, VPs books and so on.

These already point at havin the same only worse this time than before. How can there be such low oil prices but the cost of useless frivolities were increased? If the extra 2 trillion added to give us a 6 trillion plus budget was strictly on justifiable capital projects I'd have been happier than seeing that recurrent expenditures were actually increased and are over bloated. Certainly doesn't look like a team including a president that supposedly believes that what is worth doing is worth doing well.

The reason for a ruling party to have majority members in the Legislature is to ensure fairly good synergy between the Executive and Legislature without one being in the pocket of the other. The inability of the APC to get its act together despite being the ruling party and in the majority only shows their hollow ideology and ineptitude. This budget is a clear marker of this.

The greed and pure lack of character is clearly displayed by both the Executive and Legislature and there's no denying it. Mr President cannot work alone and must learn to set up and operate a crack team with efficient team players. That individualistic streak like he's the most pure and incorruptible will be his undoing. He can no longer be a lone wolf, he has to run with the pack while retaining his distinctive alpha male status.

The problem comes from having faith in 'Baba' as a person, it will fail because he cannot singlehandedly achieve anything. He needs a team that understands and believes in whatever dream he may have which must translate to a better Nigeria. As it stands, APC is a bed if strange bed fellows with contrived camaraderie...that is why this budget marks his failure already.

If the Ruling Party must fight themselves to get a Working Budget suitable for Nigeria, then they should be commended

Pavarottii:
There is no excuse for passing a budget from May upward in a year. Not sure it happens in any country. Not sure u know the negative effects of passing a budget late.

Wat surprises me, is that Zombies feel anything Buhari does is right and never criticise him. This is real madness; just so u know.

You should know the Budget is for 1 calendar year. and a new budget can only take off after May 2017

TheDevilIsALai:
Buhari is the problem.

He sent the most outrageously corrupt budget in the history of Nigeria only for him to retrieve it after much outcry at the daylight robbery he and his crooked bunch of hypocrite cabinet members where attempting to carry out only for the irresponsible loafer to declare that the budget was padded by "unscrupulous" civil servants even though he admitted not knowing the details of the budget he signed and delivered to the National Assembly.

What your dunce thief of a president is doing now is typical Buhari style of blaming and deflecting to others.

After blaming Civil servants and Jonathan appointees (without sacking a single one but his own appointee at the Budget office), he now has the audacity to blame the National Assembly at not corporating with his attempt at stealing.

Buhari is the problem and nobody else.

This is not 1984 and Buhari and you zombies can not deceive and intimidate this generation with your hypocrisy, lies and brutish behaviour.

zombie!

Whats the point of this your write up? we know its your right to wail unnecessarily even when there's no need for it.
The President like you said sent A budget with mistakes, the mistakes and discrepancies where found and pointed out, now he has taken pains to correct them and have sent it back to the national assembly. He aim to get the document right before he signs it into law..

The naira took a downward swing on Thursday after federal government’s disclosure that there was “no yuan swap” deal signed by Nigeria and China.

The naira, which traded between 315 and 317 on Wednesday, sunk sharply to a position between 320 and 322 on Thursday after the disclosure at the federal executive council meeting on Wednesday.

Earlier, Nigeria was reported to have agreed a yuan-swap deal with China, although it has not been finalised.

Godwin Emefiele, governor of the central bank of Nigeria (CBN), had spoken about the deal, adding that it would be concluded by the People’s Bank of China, with the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC), the world’s biggest lender, as CBN’s representative.

He said the deal will take pressure off the dollar in Nigeria and help conserve Nigeria’s foreign reserves.

However, Geoffrey Onyeama, minister for foreign affairs, said the deal was not a currency swap, but a deal for the flow of the yuan into Nigeria, adding that the dollar is still in use for international trade.

“It’s not really a swap. What it takes is that as the Chinese economy goes strong, there is some pressure on them from the trading partners, international financial institutions. They agreed that the money should be internationalised,” he said while briefing the press after FEC meeting on Wednesday.

“They started that for a while. They were protecting it also. They did not allow it to be fully exchangeable. But now, their economy is fully strong, they are looking for a way to internationalise the currency.

“They were saying essentially that they wanted to segment it. For Southern Africa, South Africa is going to be the sort of a hub for the currency. So, they are going to be the focal point for the Chinese to make that available for trade in that area.

“In West Africa, they are looking for a hub. Ghana is interested in being the hub for the currency, to circulate it for those who want to use it. It is not compulsory. But Nigeria is a bigger country with bigger economy. So that does make sense, they became a kind of attracted to Nigeria to be the hub.”

He said the currency gives Nigeria flexibility in buying Chinese goods with yuan rather than dollars, corroborating Emefiele’s stance.

“We still use the dollar. But if it not enough and there are some people who want to invest in the country, instead of crying that they cannot take dollar out, there might be yuan that they would be happy to take out because it is now internationalized as a currency and they can use it. So, it gives us a much larger option.

“As you know, a lot of importers now are complaining that they are not able to access the dollars to buy good and things like that. So, if we have in addition to dollar, we have yuan, then they can also have that available.”

The deal has not been totally consummated by all parties involved, but the prospects are bright for Nigeria as remnibi hub in West Africa.



A lot of folks here have comprehension problems..

kinibigdeal:
With time Nigerians will start taking Gov. Fayose serious..he don't just talk, he see before he talk unlike Ameachi and oshiomole that just criticize for power

You can make Fayose your mentor if his ways appeal to you,
