its not hard to believe, these guys have to re-invest the money they loot into straight businesses, heard arik was floated by former politicians
I'm very certain they get their hands in all the foreign partnership and privatisation exercise going on in the country

How can the South have more senators than the North in a country where no of seats are determined by population and where the Northerners have falsified census results since 1952, claiming a mojority of 54%.

i asked a question!

northerners have falsified census results since 1954, what have the south done about it? apart from moan online
why arent the southern senators or reps challenging this in the house or do they need permission from their northerner masters?

Ibime:
The misappropriation of census figures is the most grievous political trick the North has ever played on the South, and if some Northern senators cannot be convinced to cross the aisle, perhaps the growing restiveness in the South would convince them to do so if militant agitation was visited upon their jurisdiction.

the last census was conducted under a southerner president wasnt it?
why do the northerner politician find it easy to convince southern senators  anyway
funny thing is majority of these people belong to the same party what do they do there(in abuja) promise them
some yarinya and couple of ghana must goes?
when will southern senators actually score one over the northerners?

yea i cant wait for these militanst to find their way across the river! they can do all of us a favor

are the northern senators more than the southern senators
one thing im sure of is that the southern senators have never won any 'tussle'
so many 'strategic meetings' to protect the interest of the south east,south south etc etc nothing is achieved at the
end of it-they are useless!!

mahal, i think its just a show off really, chances are it was design by a foreigner
very little considerations to the functionality though it would be interesting to get the views of people that
actually use the building-workers and visitors


another thing i notice, most govt building are not being used to capacity, they are not rented out to make money
and they(MDAs) all want to own a building of their own

Biafra as a country can not sit down and fold it's hands while any other country in this world messes up with her citizen's bussinesses. Such doesn't happen when it involves countries that have the interest of their citizens at heart. Try that fucck with USA, UK, Japan, Germany, South Korea and other well meaning countries, (yes, those are countries i can compare Biafra to) and see if you are not going to be the loser at the end.

why arent the current igbo/biafran lawmakers doing anything about these problem in ghana at the moment, each region in nigeria is equally represented in the house and if one particular group feel they are deliberated being ignored, their lawmakers should stand up to do something shouldnt they?
what is uzawurike* going to do about this? he is apparently trying to meet Obama in the same country

moneygurl:
South west, I am thinking its between Akala (Oyo) and Oyinlola (osun). I would have added Daniels (Ogun) but with the drama happening in Ogun you will expect him to be in the country fighting.

Naa, with all the juju flying about he'll probably be in a cold country where juju looses potency

Bialegend:
All those foolish nigerians in this forum can read the reactions of Igbos here to see and know that most Igbo peoiple are not buying this crap of zoning the presidency to Igbos as if PDP and northers and the rest of nigerias are out to do us Igbos a favor.
Compare this to when the same northerners through Umaru said that they will create a ministry for Niger Delta affairs. All the zombie Ijaws on this forum and other forums bought the scam hook, line and sinker as mugus they have been since after the war. Someone tells you he will do something for you over your right and you come out rejoicing. I remember me and other Igbos warnig those Ijaws to beware. Today, tell me what have the so called ministry achieved for them. Zoning presidency to Igbos my arrsss. We are too big to fall for such crap.

are the views of igbo on this forum the same as those on the street of lagos abuja and kano?

btw have you applied for a biafran passport, what colour is it?

What use is it producing a President when every move he makes in th[b]e interest of the country will be viewed from tribal lense.[/b]
Producing President is not the end of the world.

Nothing new in that, just a taste of their own medicine, they should get use to it!
isn't that what some accuse yaradua/OBJ of doing? whenever someone is appointed, its seen as a northerner reh reh reh

mikeansy:
Folks after Yar'adua does not exactly mean 2011, it could well mean 2015. Some of these Journalists are not as smart as they should be. Why is no one wondering if this is Yar'adua's second term strategy to capture the South East

PDP ROTATION FORMULA IS NOT BINDING ON OTHER PARTIES

WHEN 2015 COMES THE NORTH WILL OPT FOR A PARTY WITH CANDIDATES "THEY CAN TRUST"

I HOPE THE SOUTH EAST IGNORE THIS WICKED AND SHORT-SIGHTED STRATEGY BY THE YAR'ADUA GOVERNMENT, SOME THINGS ARE JUST MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE PRESIDENT'S GEO-POLITICAL ZONE.
NO DEAL WITH THE NORTH IS BINDING, THEY WILL RENEGE ON IT. HAVING A PRESIDENT OF SOUTH EAST EXTRACTION IS UNLIKELY TO SOLVE ALL OUR PROBLEMS SO I DONT KNOW WHY A 4-YEAR DEFERRED PROMISE SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO SWAY A GEOPOLITICAL ZONE.

ANYBODY INTERESTED IN SOUTH EAST VOTE IN 2011 HAVE 2 YEARS TO START FIXING ROADS, PROVIDING ELECTRICITY FOR ALL NIGERIANS, GOOD SCHOOLS FOR ALL NIGERIAN KIDS . . . . . . THESE REAL LIFE ISSUES CAN NOT BE SUBTITUTED WITH A 4 YEAR DEFERRED PROMISE OF HANDING THE SOUTH EAST THE PRESIDENCY. WE ARE SMARTER THAN THAT.

true but its like an unwritten law, in the 1999 elections the frontrunners were from the southwest, im sure it was the same in the 2003 elections. in 2007 the frontrunners were from the north, even the AC/AD presented a northerner

time and time again 'we've proved otherwise

the PDP is not ceding presidency they are just rotating, all the south-Eastern will fall over themselves to be the pdp candidate

nuzo:
Maybe we should begin to care since we've tried other people from other regions and failed woefully.
Nevertheless, an average Igbo man would care less where the president comes from so far hard work is duely rewarded, unfortunately, that's not the case of nigeria.

On the other hand, PDP and Nigerians should not try thinking its a favor for the Igbos.

that's what it will come down to at the end, the cry all along has been 'why cant they allow us have a taste of it'
so it will be a case of , look we are giving you a chance, you are not the one taking it we handle it to you

no21:
Where are the abokis on this forum?

No comment from them yet.

Because i am sure this kind of thing can not happen in my part of Nigeria

where's your part of nigeria?

The commissioner explained that the camp which is a farm belonging to one Sarki Kasuwa, over time has been in use as a place where teenage girls between the ages of 10 and 12 are sexually trafficked.

when did 10-12yo become teenagers?
some nigeria journalist sha
they never mentioned or interviewed this imaginary sarki?
how are we sure tehy are not cooking up this story
how come the guy has not been arrested?

funny country funny people

how did this turn into a religious issue?

when girls are turned to baby producing machines in south east theres absolutely no link to religion
when girls in a lagos sex camp brothel explained our they share the proceeds with their landlord it didnt turn into a religious issue,
now its Niger state, automatically indicating its north and muslim huh?

BUMP!!!

are there typical nigerian/African houses anymore?
most (not all) house I see have this 'foreign' influence
in a hot country like nigeria you'd think the weather will be taking into consideration but no
some houses are straight from Washington D.C
so many money miss roads and lack of creativity in the system!

Check the names I have mention above in HOME OFFICE staff in Cardiff, Mr Philip AlanQuatermine and Philip Lawson and others and in London Croyden, Home Office, Mr. Nick Church. THEY ARE HIGHLY RACIST,They hated BLACKS with a passion.

check the name to see they work there or check the name to see if its a racist name?

finding it difficult to believe you, anyone complain and the authorities refuse to investigate?
perhaps someone you know lost a baby whilst in detention?

there was a report some few months back criticising the home office for not fast tracking women with babies
at their detention centres

pictures? everyday pictures ??

Where are the women?

Investigation showed that many banks in Nigeria lent short-term to the 36 state governments ahead of elections in 2007, in some cases saddling themselves with debts which were not repaid.

these banks are not helping matters

Hopefully this is a strategy to increase loan to the private sector, banks should be more innovative than relying on govt money, hopefully they can invest in real estate and manufacturing sector etc etc

Some state governments are already heading to the bond market for long term financing through public offer.

all those states with no account will have no choice but to get their books in order to approach the nse

yipeeeeeeeeeeee

Na wa o

was the amnesty extended to Asari Dokubo too?
Thought the guy has been living in Abuja for about three years now
Is Dokubo still living in the Niger Delta?

perhaps he is just negotiating for better pay

its about time we stop playing victim and accussing others

unfortunately every adult has the right to vote and be voted for afterall [s]we dont have a database with criminal records [/s] na DeMO[/b]strationof[b]CRAZE

if the people vote for him in thier state oh well  

PapaBrowne:
Hmmmm! I have my fears!
Mikeansy has made a very valid point.

The CBN Governor has a duty to protect the banking system.
Being tough is OK, but talking tough on the pages of the media is not a good sign at all.
They haven't done the audit and he is speaking like he already knows the results. I fear the outcome.
I already feel like pulling my funds out of the system.

The banking system currently is filled with cooked up figures- True! But I bet you, cooked up figures are much better than having a system where there is low public confidence.

Sincerely,there's got to be some crude agenda.
I'm not a fan of ethnic profiling and I don't usually like commenting on ethnic issues, but I must say this one:
The North lost out drastically in the Banking sector and it wants badly to get back in. Of the 24 banks in the country, only one is owned by, or headed by a northerner. And that one is Unity bank- the smallest and least successful bank in the country.

When he opens up the banks to foreign ownership, Arab money moves in to take over majority of the banks!
It sounds very stupid, but I had to add that, cos I know its a fact and that's the agenda!

even you know

and if there was a northerner agenda he'd have been working for union or unity bank!

PS, im not saying she can defer the visa, just saying, if it's still valid and she has written agreement with the school to resume in january for example
then yes she can travel at a later date as long as its within explainanble time period

^^^

suspicion in the banking sector?
whats happening in the banks is known to everyone already, acknowledging mistakes and taking action is what we need

not just for banks but for all public companies so we improve information and transparency.

good good

redsun:
Nigeria is crazy.It is really a miracles loads of people don't die everyday

actually they do! just the population masking it plus apathy after saying RIP we move on!

no wonder those guys are sitting outside on the bench, even their office is a death trap look at all the wires roaming about!!


I don't understand why some are protesting about ceding the service to the state govt though, are they in anyway impling
only yoruba people/Lagos state indigines would be employed? Surely lagos state has access to more resources to make it function like
a proper fire service better numeration, better management better training and equipment-
[sub]that's if governor doesn't privatise them and move spread them into lekki, ajah, ikeja only.
