Poor drainage system. Despite that Kano state takes home the most lion share from local government councils allocations due to the myriad local government councils created by Abacha in Kano state.

Kano governors are usually the first to kick against any talk of political restructuring in Nigeria. For the nay Sayers to political restructuring, it is like the political structure created by Abacha and other northern soldiers, no Nigerians in a democracy must change.


The stance of nay Sayers to political restructuring is one of the reasons Nigeria must split very soon.

CHANGE.

Lol, let Amaechi or Okorocha come out 2019 to ask you and Nigeria vote him president of Nigeria, you shall remember he is Igbo. The same manner OBJ and others realized that Peter Odili was Igbo in 2007.

Odili had no body to beat in PDP's presidential primaries in 2007 after a nationwide expensive campaign. Two days to the primary, OBJ mobilized EFCC and pushed Odili out of the race. OBJ even refused to name Odili as VP to Yar'Adua.

Nigeria is a failed state where semi-literate people lead PhD holders in politics.

Amaechi is a miss-road.

"Now we are all in trouble as crude prices plummet to US$40 per barrel next year." I have warned you several times that oil will soon become useless,some rained insults on me,check those comments on my previous posts. Oil will be sold for $10/barrel.

Once crude oil no longer yields enough revenues to Nigeria, Arewa Islamic republic shall emerge. Sorry, Oduduwa Republic may be first to emerge, followed by Arewa and others.

Oi price slump and Boko violence may be natural ways God wants to use to resolve the unclean, forced and unworkable marriage of northern and southern protectorates of Great Britain in West Africa, a marriage that has been violently consuming millions of its offspring.

No inflow of foreign investment, oil money directed more to fighting Boko Haram, than to development.

Southern Nigeria politicians are acting one Nigeria mugu politicians for the benefit of northern Nigeria politicians who indirectly invented Boko Haram when they adopted use of sharia criminal laws. Boko Haram maintains that it is fighting for a country governed by sharia criminal laws.


Boko Haram has drained Nigeria up financially but many Nigerians, especially the politicians from the south play Mumu one Nigeria, instead of detaching their people and areas from Nigeria.

Boko Haram are not a foolish band of anarchists that go about killing people. They have an objective: making Islam the only religion in Nigeria, making use of sharia criminal justice system the only justice system in Nigeria.

Nigeria may fight them till eternity.

If only you aren't magnificently stupid and ignorant, you'd know that even PMB acknowledged the fact that the previous administration deserved the credits for the Refineries.

Buhari acknowledging Jonathan's good works is not enough. Buhari needs to stop being seen as witch-hunter-in-chief as he hounds people that served in Jonathan's administration.

No Nigerian govt had probed previous governments before now. Therefore, Buhari needs to start his probe with governments headed by OBJ when Buhari was oil minister, IBB and Abubakar, and 1999 - 2007 OBJ governments, before it reaches the turn of Jonathan government.

One Nigeria is a huge set-back to the old southeast region of Nigeria - whether Buhari fulfills his campaign promises or not, no big news for the fortunes of the old southeast region.

The earlier people in the old southeast region come together and sort themselves out of Nigeria, the better. After that, any group or groups who want anything - fiscal federalism, resource control or new country - from a new small country of the old southeast region can easily get it - it is simple logic.

The environments look like some places during the stone age. This one Nigeria sef. Walahitalahi, One Nigeria is a whole set-back for some sections of the country.

Lol, the ISIS puritans pretend they are fighting for sharia governed society. But in fact, what rules their minds is the opening between the two legs of young women.
Sharia criminal codes: ISIS, Taliban, Boko Haram and other Islamic extremists, they are all ruled by the V-word openings between the two legs of young women. Hypocrisy.

Lol, these pictures now emerge in order to whip up Buhari/Obasanjo buddy sentiments in order to pre-empt Buhari probe of Obasanjo.

Obasanjo administration is likely to be the most corrupt ever in Nigeria, Buhari has no business probing Jonathan government without first probing Obasanjo administration.

This is a country run by the most deceptive cliques in the world.

True. How I wish this man is CAN president instead of that Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor.

Congrats Father Mbaka.

Why CAN president for Mbaka? Abi you never see country where reverend father is president?

Mbaka fall mugu to the deception in Nigeria when he inadvertently campaignied for Buhari for president.

kennydee05:
Congratulations Father Mbaka may God Almighty preserve and keep you for many years in Good health and more anointing to priesthood.

Wailers join us to celebrate a man, prophet of impeccable character and priesthoodship

Mbaka helped and got you power, see how elated you have been over Mbaka.

APC has shared seats in parliament and excluded Mbaka's Southeast.

Tomorrow if Mbaka's Okoro brother comes out to ask you vote him president of Nigeria, you will open your bigoted intelligence to reject him. Una think say una get sense

elijah2u:
i am yet to grasp your point sha.

The point? Why do some supposedly well-informed people from the southwest of Nigeria get excited with PMB's declaration to eradicate Boko Haram from Nigeria, given the fact that there are so many people, including Buhari, who want a Nigeria country governed with sharia criminal laws - Boko Haram also fights for a country governed with sharia criminal laws?

[b]Lest we are made to forget by Nigeria's media:

At the beginning, Boko Haram was usually reported by Nigeria's media as a group fighting to establish a country in Nigeria friendly with use of Islamic Sharia criminal laws.

Sharia criminal laws entail stoning adulterous women to death, death for blasphemy, cutting off hands of petty thieves; etc.
Sharia civil laws are legal in Nigeria's constitution, but sharia criminal laws are not.

----at the beginning, around 2000, then governor of Zamfara state, Sani Yerima, introduced the adoption of sharia criminal laws to the predominantly Muslim north of Nigeria. The adoption spread like wild fire as other eleven northern states adopted sharia criminal laws to their legal systems, in addition to Nigeria's secular legal system.

----as the war for and against use of sharia criminal laws raged in northern Nigeria, a BBC female reporter asked Sani Yerima if he did not foresee a break-up of Nigeria within the next ten years because of sharia in the north. Yerima replied that it was not possible, and quickly added that north and south of Nigeria inter-married, but what separated the north and south of Nigeria were differences in value systems.

-- --shortly after the sharia conflict in the north, Boko Haram emerged and has remained consistent that it is fighting for a country friendly with use of sharia criminal justice system.

---- at one point in 2001, Nigeria's current President Buhari urged Muslims to ensure that use of sharia criminal laws were employed in all the states of Nigeria.

----- at one point in 2013, Buhari modified his sharia stance in an interview where he stated that any state legislature that votes to have sharia criminal laws to be employed in the state - that's it - use of sharia criminal laws becomes legal in the state.

But come to think of this: does one not expect fire in say, a state in the southwest zone of Nigeria whose legislature ever dabbles into a debate to legalize use of sharia criminal laws in the state, given the type of mixture of religious faiths in the southwest area?

Come to think of it again: how can one country under unitary government system make do with two criminal justice systems?


---- at one point during the last administration, Buhari was reported to have cautioned Nigeria's military brass that their fight against Boko Haram was like a fight against the north of Nigeria.


"What is Boko Haram?" - those were the words which Buhari used to dismiss Boko Haram and a foreign journalist who asked Buhari during the last presidential campaign how Buhari hoped to stop Boko Haram violence if elected president of Nigeria.

Finally, Buhari pledged before Nigeria's electorate to stop Boko Haram violence shortly after he becomes president. Not yet time to assess Buhari on that?

Observation: Many peace-loving Muslims in the north of Nigerian may abhor the way Boko Haram goes about its fight for a sharia-friendly country which it says it is fighting for; but then, millions among these peace-loving Nigerian Muslims seem to share with Boko Haram the same objective of having a Nigeria country governed with use of sharia criminal laws.

Many supposedly well-informed people from the southwest zone of Nigeria are usually upbeat, and sometimes exhilarated, over President Buhari's pledge to stop Boko Haram movement in Nigeria, who can explain why given the foregoing?

Some Iyoruba and unreasonable excitement over Buhari - who can explain?

"What is Boko Haram?" - those were the words Buhari used to dismiss Boko Haram and a foreign journalist who asked Buhari during the presidential campaign how Buhari hoped to stop Boko Haram.

Do Iyoruba remember that a BBC female reporter asked the harbinger of sharia, Sani Yerima, if he did not believe that sharia criminal laws in the north would lead to break-up of Nigeria within ten years? - that was around 2001 when sharia wars erupted in the north.

Do Iyoruba not hear Boko Haram leader consistently state that they are fighting for a country friendly with use of sharia criminal laws?

Did Iyoruba people not hear Buhari exhort Muslims to ensure that sharia criminal laws be applied to all of Nigeria?

Did Iyoruba not hear Buhari say he would defeat Boko Haram shortly after he became president?

Did Iyoruba not hear Buhari say that fighting Boko Haram was like fighting the north of Nigeria?

So what guides the Iyoruba excitement over Buhari's talk of stopping Boko Haram?

Before its sympathizers, Boko Haram may be employing a distasteful fighting method for a sharia-governed Nigeria, but those sympathizers share the same objective with Boko Haram.

Discussion can't stop Boko Haram. Buhari has gone round the world in two months to discuss Boko Haram. Deception.

Boko Haram says it is fighting for a country governed by sharia criminal laws. Buhari himself urged Muslims to make sure that sharia criminal laws are implemented all over Nigeria.

Too many Nigerians and rest of the world are being deceived by Nigerian sympathizers of Boko Haram.

Positiveminds:
How else do you define wickedness !

Truly, truly I say unto us, these our politicians are close associates of Satan the Devil.They are wicked.

Carelessness and wickedness!!

People breathe dust and wallow in muddy roads in Okorocha's senatorial constituency in the last four years, as he scrapped once passable roads and abandoned them.

The people voted him for second term out of fear that if they did not, the roads could remain like that for years.

But Okorocha believes he is smarter than everybody.

[b]The US government teaches History to its children - not like Nigeria which hides its ugly past from its children.

During the mid 1960s, Nigeria Army watched as pogrom against people of southeast origin in the north of Nigeria went on; at the end, more than 30000 southeasteners were killed by northerners. No body was punished for that till today. Because of the pogrom, southeasteners declared a new country Biafra from Nigeria.

Between 1967 to 1970, Nigeria Army watched as starvation was utilized by its Commander-in-Chief, Gen. Yakubu Gowon, to fight against the southeast people in what was supposed to be a civil war; Nigeria remains the only country to use starvation of children as war tactic;
and at the end of the starvation process, more than 2 million people from the southeast region, mostly children, and including war prisoners, were either murdered or starved to death; none pf the perpetrators of that crime was punished till today.

Worse, the war ended, Nigeria Army war criminals were branded War Heroes Whose Labour Shall Not Be In Vain - as sang in the new national anthem.

The US government keeps records - the US can't supply arms to Nigeria to wipe out sections of its citizenry.

discusant:
ODUAREWA REPUBLIC - that's the name of the emerging country comprising the north and southwest of Nigeria.

ODUAREWA REPUBLIC is gonna be a country where TRUTH has no respect; a country WHERE LIARS AND CHEATS MUST BE ELEVATED TO BE LEADERS.

It's gonna be a country where the chicken that lays the golden egg is starved to feed the barren chicken.

It shall be a country where impunity shall hold sway; those that attempt to develop the country are hounded to prison.

It is gonna be a country where money gained from natural resources is mainly used to fight off religious militants.

It is gonna be a country filled with strife.

Wow, but the irony of it all is that many people from the SW who do not hit head on the ground as they pray shall fiercely resist formation of any such country comprising only the north and southwest of Nigeria.

cescky:
what really is the president of this nation doing about all these?


or do we even have a national leader?

at least Jonathan will come out openly and condem such acts

this ones silence.........

does his silence mean consent?

something isnt right some where

The president is borrowing money from the World Bank in America to as he said, rebuild the northern states affected by the Boko Haram violence.

But who talks about rehabilitation when the violence is still on going?

So after Buhari rebuilds with birrowed rehabilitation money, what if Boko Haram destroys what was rebuilt? Nigeria shall go and borrow further to rebuild?

Can someone tell the twelve northern sharia states to renounce the adoption of sharia criminal laws and watch Boko Haram peter out. Boko Haram says it's fighting for a country friendly with use of sharia criminal laws.

Nigeria turning round and round: Boko Haram says it's fighting for a country friendly with sharia criminal laws. It destroyed much of the north as it pursued its objectives.
.Before Boko Haram emerged, 12 northern states adopted use of sharia criminal laws. But sharia criminal laws have no place in Nigeria's secular constitution.
.After all the destruction done by Boko Haram, PMB has borrowed money from the World Bank which he said was to rebuild the northern areas affected by Boko Haram violence.


Nigerians tolerate this debt being piled for them because of ill-education and I'll-information among Nigerians.

First act of PMB in office is stop the billions of Naira pipelines guard contract awarded to one Yoruba group.

Change!!!!

Has Boko Haram violence ended for us to start rebuilding the affected people and areas?

Now PMB has borrowed $2.2billion he said is to rebuild the north east, as if Buhari knew that once he was elected president, Boko Haram violence must stop.

bulldoza:
Feedeepee

Why

OBASANJO IS THE MAN WHO LED NIGERIA TO BOKO HARAM PROBLEMS.

Twelve northern states adopted sharia criminal laws under Obasanjo government. Sharia criminal laws have no place in Nigeria's secular constitution.

Instead of Obasanjo to stand firm and say no to northern states adoption of sharia criminal laws, Obasanjo grinned and said it was political sharia, and that it should die down.
But it never died down.

Boko Haram later emerged and says it is fighting for a country governed with sharia criminal laws.


2015 elections, Obasanjo further pushed Nigeria into the hands of people sympathetic to nationwide use of sharia criminal laws.

Buhari still trying to prove he was educationally qualified to contest presidential election.

Whether Buhari attended Higher education after O'Level has never been the question. Issue is that Buhari is yet to provide the O'Level Certificate that could have enabled War College to admit Buhari then. That O'Level Certificate is required by INEC before Buhari could qualify to contest Nigeria's presidential election.

Where is Buhari's WASC till today? War College might not be in the position to authenticate Buhari's O'Level certificate when Buhari enrolled in the college.

PentiumPro:
There should be consequences for voting wrongly and there should be reward for voting wisely.
Not doing that will be a disservice for those that made the right judgment.

Right judgement ehen...

Voting a seventy something years old man with doubtful education credentials president in a country swimming with young and very well educated persons is the worse judgment ever.
