Dr Gabriel Ogbodu Ada (Acolyte of PDP)
Former INEC resident electoral commissioner in Delta state during the main and rerun gubernatorial elections in 2011 where sparsely populated rural communities in the creeks had higher number of registered voters as well as higher proportion of voters turnout than urban centers

The Ubas (PDP)
This family with mind steeped in the obnoxious showed us how individuals can abuse power vagrantly and get away with it.

Mbadinuju (PDP)
First civilian governor of Anambra state in this 4th republic. He surrendered his executive powers to the Ubas to use as they deem fit. The outcome, of course, is now history.

Iyiola Omisore (PDP)
Accused of being involved in the murder of Bola Age.Worn a senatorial election while still in detention.

To be contd...

Barcanista, that list is a disservice to mankind. Even the the devil will frown at it for its austerity. But then it's a good start. It should also contain group of persons and as such PDP should be first, INEC under Iwu 2nd and Tanoid 3rd. Others include

PEJ
Indicted for laundering about $13m. Another #104m was traced to her foreign account.

Jolly Name
Ordered to be tried for stealing #2.4b by the supreme court.

Tony Anenih
Mr Fix it. He orchestrated the greatest electoral fraud in the history of mankind. Unable to account for over #300b claimed to have been spent on road construction.

Maurice Iwu
The umpire who was in charge of a body that was meant to be independent but midwived an election that was anything but fair.

To be continued..

Realignment in evolution! Sunrise in Daura.

@ Eziashi: I wonder how you endure the ignorance of this set of people who suffer from fixation neurosis. They embellish imaginary paint-Buhari-the-devil stories which were told and repeatedly recycled by challartans. I said it in one thread that nobody can tell me anything new about Buhari regime because I lived it. The problem with Buhari is that, due to his taciturn nature, he allowed his enemies to write his own story. Thank God those who know his worth have decided to come out and put the records straight. Otherwise, Nigerian history will forever remain twisted.

@OP: Google is everybody's friend. Search for GMB and avail yourself of all it has to say about him. Happy reading.

chi4ik:
yes I believe GEJ because I'm a unijos student & once you enter unijos permanent site, you will see CBN projects ongoing. fellow Nigerians, don't blame GEJ in everything because your state governors are contributing to the problems of this country. many of them in North are busy embezzling public fund. poverty & under development is too much in the north. God bless GEJ & NIGERIA.

Are these not the same CBN projects initiated by SLS for which he was accused of extra budgetary spending, nepotism, unequal distribution of CBN assisted projects and corruption? Now they have metamorphosed to GEJ accomplishment.

Chigold101:
did Lagos state government ever refuted the claim of Labaran Maku on the loan facility?
If they did just show me the newspaper where they claimed they never collected money from the federal government...

You need some enlightment. The FG is constitutionally required to act as a garrrantor for any external loan being accessed by any state govt. The state pays back according to agreed terms. It is not federal money. The FG does not contribute a dime.

@atilwires or whatever you are called: which new transmission station in Agbor are you talking about?
Do you know where Agbor is? Let me remind you that the era where the govt used the media to hoodwink people has long gone.
The OP has inadvertently done irreparable harm to GEJ going by the contradictory responses in this thread.

obailala:
When I opened this thread and saw the looooong list, I knew it must be some form of SCAM. I didnt know where to start scrutinising from so I simply jumped to my state and something immediately caught my attention.

* Reconstruction of Elele - owerri road
* Rehabilitation of Owerri - Port-Harcourt road

Firstly, I am still struggling to understand what the difference is between these 2 roads . This typically explains why the list is so long; only God knows the number of other duplications contained in this list if I could spot this in a split second.

Secondly and most disheartening is that this same road has been under construction for ages (since OBJ's tenure I believe) and it's still under construction till date. So how does it now count as an achievement of this administration?

The road isn't even anywhere close to completion and after passing through it last month, I wouldn't be wrong if I say this is one of the WORST ROADS IN THE COUNTRY PRESENTLY. The only axis of this road which is excellently motorable is the Rivers state axis of the road which ironically was constructed by Rivers State government (and up till now, Amaechi is still begging for a refund from the FG).

Finally, who even cares if the list is as long as the Nile?... A vital question to be asked is, at what cost were these projects executed?

With the prevailing corruption in the country, it is only a fool that would believe any meaningful development can actually take place. Attempting to develop the country without paying a single attention to graft is just like fetching water from a stream with a basket.

[size=15pt]My fellow Nigerians, please see for yourselves the images of the PH - Owerri road which has just been counted twice as an achievement of this administration in Imo state. What kind of wickedness is this?.. Nigerians have always been the problem of Nigeria. [/size]

OP mind explaining this gargantuan deceit.

Nigeria is being ruled like a conquered territory where the masses are treated as second class citizens. I thought enterpreneurs are supposed to thread carefully on the political landscape. I wonder how this Thunder will cope in the coming new political dispensation.

Caseless:
Jonathan is so un-intelligent; he has no knowledge of everything, including the constitution that's there to guide him.

Not only that. Additionally he exhibits lack of awareness in time, place, and person. In simple term he's disconnected from reality.

Unibenstudent:
by the time I graduate buharis government will provide jobs ,anything that will stop that is a demoniac and I i will bind that demon now.

Easy bros!

We can never know more than our master. In the bible, we read where the disciples asked JC to tell them how to pray and he gave them a template in the form of the Lords prayer which among other things says.....Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. So why promote the destruction by fire of those who sinned against us? Even for our needs, he said thus....Give us this day our daily bread. It means ask for your basic needs and not a financial empire. Paul had to give up his riches to fulfill a mandate with God. Unfortunately, we relegate all these requirements to the dustsbin because they are not in tandem with our materialistic and wolfish desires.

justi4jesu:
I pity those corps members seriously.

Have you bothered to find out the experience of corpers who supervised elections in the creeks of the Niger Delta.

Where is Abati when he is needed most? Let him just produce something to debunk this raging storm before it goes out of hand and become a major scandal.

omonuan:
Tell this to the marines. If you have a relative killed by Buhari's goons in 2011 after he lost the election, you won't be diverting attention from Buhari. I guess you need to provide any evidence that the dogs and the baboons will not be soaked in blood. We need to pre-empt blood thirsty Buhari supporters from soaking more baboons and dogs in blood. Say no to violence and threat to call out the almajiri for a blood bath like your hero has done.

Did Kaita make the threat of dogs and baboon too? No more bloodshed I'd say. Buhari needs to come out and repudiate his reprehensible threat to soak the blood of dogs and baboons in human blood and he needs to do it fast. Otherwise those of us who are opposed to violence will continue the full court press.

Yours has been presented to the dogs.

Collynzo22:
I have seen observed some possibly intentional gaffes in recent times that have contributed in no small way in making the present government look clueless and confused in some quarters - strangely by people who are heavily paid to do the complete opposite.

1. General Olukolade announced in April that the Chibok girls have been rescued by the military only to retract the statement after it was proven to be outrightly false.

2. Reuben Abati tweeted a picture of soldiers supposedly in Sambisa forest trying to rescue the Chibok girls, the picture had been in circulation long before the girls were kidnapped. He put up some very weak defences after being called out to that effect.

3. Doyin Okupe repeatedly tweeted a bringbackourgoodluck2015 hashtag, a frankly ill-conceived idea.

4. Reuben Abati tweeted a picture of President Jonathan being welcomed in Chad by Modu Sheriff just few days after he was accused of being a boko haram sponsor. I am sure he could have found a picture that Sheriff did not feature in or at least crop him out before releasing into public domain. Even a toddler would have know that such a picture would be used against the president.

5. Just today, General Olukolade retracted a statement confirming the release of the Chibok girls, a few minutes after confirming their release to local and international media houses.

One of the hallmark of a great personage is being able to manage the people around him to properly project your ideals not theirs. But for GEJ that ingredient is lacking. No class. All manners of vegetables are packed into the soup being cooked in his kitchen where there are also all manners of cooks with poor culinary skills. End result is what we have now.

barcanista:
I was under ban as usual . Okupe is trying so hard to impress, he has become a twitter troll

It's a cross we must bear till the end of this era of ignomy.

barcanista:
Omenka come and see Doyin Okupe at work again...

"Stealing is not Corruption"

Where have you been? I really entertained some blizzare scenario. Anyway welcome back.
@topic: I am sure that in the very near future this will be given to some PHD candidates as thesis. Okupe will be a good reference.

Sincere9gerian:
These enemies of progress don't ever get tired. Toll gate or no toll gate, how come the past govts didn't build any 2nd Niger bridge in the last 30 years? Let's see the bridge first, then we can talk about the tolling later. After all there is an existing bridge, which is free for all

Oh! you are from the east? Odiegwu! Really surprising due to your fixation on Lagos and everything about Lagos.

datribune:
No one dat knows nigerian history will ever condemn d Buhari/Idiagbon coup. Here ar d facts:
d PDP's evil ancestor, d National Party of Nigeria (NPN) under weak president Shagari looted d country to bankruptcy to d extent dat no nation would borrow d heavily indebted nigeria any more money. 4 d 1st time in nigerian history d fed govt could not pay salaries. No food, no money. Soap, milk, sugar etc popularly called essential commodities disappeared from d shelves just like in Zimbabwe. d NPN vampires partied away conspicuously while nigerians groaned in unimaginable suffering. d very foundation of d nation was shaken. It was utter chaos. Fortunately 4 nigeria, d patriotic duo of Buhari & Idiagbon came to 9ja's rescue. d warehouses where d NPN criminals hoarded foodstuffs & commodities were thrown open & d nigerian people were given relief.
In his short stint as a leader he restored d nigerian economy back, rejected d IMF loan & paid part of d debts owed by d thieving NPN, d rest of which OBJ paid off not too long ago. Buhari is a man of proven integrity, an honourable man & a patriot.

I long for those Buhari years. In 1982 my family was a major retailer of rice and beans. By 1983 we couldn't afford to buy rice. Because of the rampant corruption then austerity measure was hung on the neck of the masses. By 1984 rice and other essential commodities became available and affordable again through some ingenious economic economic policies by Bihari according to Wikipedia.

datribune:
On Anyday, at anytime anyone dat is familiar wit nigerian history will take Buhari's dictatorship over d civilian misrule of d criminal national party of nigeria (NPN) d ancestor of d present dysfunctional PDP. Under Shagari, d thieving politicians wrecked d economy & plunged d nation into d greatest recession in our history & accumulated an unprecedented debt burden on d nation which Buhari started paying & which decades later OBJ completed. He asserted d pride & sovereignty of nigeria & refused to devalue d naira & thru economic ingenuity he kept d inflationary rate between 3-5% & d exchange rate at $1 to 1 naira. These ar d facts. Buhari has done it b4, he will do it again.
SAI BUHARI

Wikipedia actually referred to Buhari economic policies as ingenious.

Which one is the wife and which ones are the daughters?

Daguccizgreat:
Barcanista how market? They ban your main moniker ?

Only mere mortals die before their time.

Jollymich:
some ppl are worried about human right violations and freedom of rights. Buhari was sometimes said to be a dictator and unfit for democratical dispensation. This he made it real sometimes 31 years ago when he deposed democratic elected president. Well he has plan after all Obasanjo a solder sidelined Atiku a custom officer with twenty years experience during his administration and nothing happened. Buhari is too much for Osibanjo. I forsee danger. Osibanjo can not protect our interest because their plan is to be elected in all top political position before they set the buring fire on us if you doubt me google ABUJA declaration 1989 and see their game plan and strategies you think they are fools with that plan they will achieve their aim if not now its latter or in next generation but its gonna be for real when they begin to slaugher every one thats not theirs your church will disoganize and pastor will run for their lives

Check your history very well Buhari didn't deposed Shagari. The did was already done before he came into the scene.

zubizareta:
Its unfortunate that most Nigerians have no idea of this country's problems...so if them leave you, you go appoint Amaechi as the Petroleum Minister because he successfully campaigned for Buhari?? does he even have the technical know-how??

When GMB was made the federal commissioner for petroleum he hadn't seen a drop of crude oil before but ended up becoming one of the best petroleum minister this country has ever produced.

safarigirl:
who exactly is Osinbajo? Fashola was by far a better option. Forget bigots, the SS/SE would've voted the popular Muslim Fashola over the relatively unknown Christian Osinbajo. The only thing that may push this fellow is that he has close ties to Adeboye....even at that sef....anyway anybody is better than non-existent, slightly r3t@rded Sambo

You have a point there. If it were possible to conduct a poll on the VP choice I believe Fashola would have come out tops. But, then, this is politics involving a selection process where interests and influence of powerful individuals override every other thing.

moderattor:
Jonathan has not done the best at all, but he is visibly trying. If Obasanjo havent applogised to Nigerians, why should Jonathan do?
If Buhari who truncated our democracy years ago haven't apologised, why should Jonathan do?
#JustAsking

Truncated our.... Where you born them?
