What has the 1trillion been used for except to enrich the elite few? How has it been used to improve the lives of the poor majority?

It was shared as part of the Federation account. Abi your governor didn't tell you that was how he was able to pay salaries?

I just nor won swear for you, but t it will not be well you.

What else does a juvenile like you sabi apart from swearing at your progenitors

kstix:
This comment reeks of bias, misinformation and sheer ignorance. I was an ardent buhari supporter till nepotism instead of competence, herdsmen loyalty, turning a blind eye to corruption within his administration and even reinstating this incompetent corrupt individuals became the order of the day. Even his wife is not in total support. Who can know a person better than his wife? So be truthful to yourself and see for a fact that there's everything wrong with this govt right from the glaring signs of using almost a year to appoint cabinet members as if they were coming from heaven to fix all nigeria's problems only for them to be no different from their predecessors. I voted buhari based on his past record and being the lesser of the two evils between Him and Jonathan. Only to disappoint myself and millions of Nigerians who wouldn't hesitate to vote him out should he contest in 2019. God will help him and bless him till he finishes his tenure then he can go and rest. We are tired of all these old folks deciding the polity of our nation.

Rubbish post. I am not here to write what suits your infantile reasoning

KAYD007:
The President Is NEPOTIC and bigoted in his appointments,and reappointment of those who were suspended and under investigation

Lots and Lots of damming Corruption allegation against members of his kitchen cabinet to which he has remain deaf to

His insensitivity towards the killings in Benue,

These are but few of his many shortcomings which under sane clime, he would have been made to resign for gross dereliction of duty and incompetency.

Your third point is the only stand out reason for disappointment with PMB. He has been roundly condemned and justifiably so. But this attitude of 'he either fails or I die' is what I don't subscribe to. Most if the political class are just profiteers. No hope in them. We had them as rulers before.

Xisnin:
Illiterate herdsman spotted. I know human lives means nothing to you as you comfirmed
by equating mis-governance with death. I suggest you tend to your cows while intelligent
people are having discussion.

...and which potopoto birth canal did you crawl out from

Mogidi:
Meanwhile Buhari is importing rocket propelled grenade to his Fulani militia without any hindrance.

Yes of course! What are you gonna do about it.

jimjemo:
Buhari ministers are so dumb, what happened to kachickwu has happened to adewole , soon , gwarzo will be re instated and adeosun will be shamed as usual they lack self worth and integrity so they won't resign to protest open humiliation!

You are obviouslly the d*umb a*ss here. Your comment just shows your complete ignorance of the issue. here. Politics aside, the minister is gradually becoming an embarrassment to the medical profession. He won't be missed if and when he is booted out of office. Hopefully, it should be sooner than later. That will of course provide you with the complete recipe for the hatred eating eating away at your soul.

wingmanII:
My friend, go and read today's punch. Nothing fake about this news. Your Mr integrity has none after all.

Do you even know the issue at stake. You are advising somebody to read when you wallow in ignorance..

Rolings:
God bless you for this good job. Children of hate will never see this .their comments are just too disgusting and to think they are supposedly educated

To think these same retar*ds are clamouring for generational shift in leadership. I ask, who do they wish to lead?

Hmmmmmmm

Very level headed comment. Let us be truthful to ourselves for once, if not for the herdsmen menace, was there any major issue of misgovernance to use as campaign tool against PMB. NO! Would the bitchy OBJ have had the nerve to write a.letter, of course NO. God should continue to direct our President in the right direction. Amen

Nigeria is peopled by very ignorant people as evidenced by the comments of many people above.

Please cure your ingnorance

Reps say health minister fired NHIS boss for blowing whistle on N200m corruption

BeardedMeat:
Where were you when the same PMB sidelined him in the scheme of things for almost 3years and greatly undermined his interest empowering boys whom he mentored and sponsoring same against him?Believe it, Tifnubu is covering up a deep festering gash on his ego inflicted by a dullard he whitewashed and helped to power.

Those are past issues, this is a new era. Politicians don't nurse.grievances till death. What matter most is interests.

Akwata, Ogbete market.Sounds quiet familiar but has the look of Ogboso.

PMB should never allow BAT join any of the opposition parties or even allow him practise freelance politics. Ask me the reason why I like him, I can't just say. But I know he is the MVP everybody wants to be with and every party has come to covet.

How can someone spin the tale that Mark fought for a road to be built when he was senate president for 4 years and couldn't even bring a single brick to the same people?


Let's face it, the executive is doing a good job and all the jobless senators are trying to take credit for it.

Na so wee see am.

Firefire:
War looming

You scared. You've been wishing for it since ages.

I hope to here Islamization agenda. The rich and the political class have a way of catering for their common interests without being tribalistic or resorting to religious bigotry. Very soon those without knowledge of the location of Ogidigben will swarm this thread and embark on religious and ethnic induced sentimental death roll.

Hmmmmmmm.


Everybody now sermonizing. Get your correlation right.Obasamjo is never Calpumia. Calpumia concerns were that of a truly loving woman. She never went to the public square to declare her feelings known to all. OBJ is just like an abandoned housewife seeking for relevance. What wrong has PMB done that OBJ didnt magnify 100 fold as President. But then Calpumia attitude was why great leaders take leave of their wives when preparing for battles. Using the tragedy of Brutus is just disingenuous. Why didn't you used that of Anthony and Cleopatra. Anthony refused yo heed the call to save Rome because of Cleopatra. Hope you like that.See, one is free to criticise PMB from ones celestial height but to do that from OBJ obtused viewpoint portrays us as a people in stupor all this while.

Mogidi:
Where were these people when Fayose singlehandedly took on the might of the Federal Government?
Without Fayose’s battle cries in 2015, PDP was all but dead. Anyone Fayose supports should be the PDP candidate. We don't want a situation where someone wins election and then decamps to the opposition.

Take on federal might my foot. Same Fayose that didn't miss out on federal handouts. He wasn't even man enough to go collect it by himself. Act of cowardice.If I talk all wetin de my mind now you go say I no well.

Look at them! look at all of them above! Products of hateful/bigotic ancestry. The moment they saw Buhari , appoints, and Adamu in the post a frenzy was triggered like ones plagued with epilepsy.
My advice to you all is be mindful of FFK SYNDROME

PLEASE READ AND FREE YOUR SOUL FROM HATE

President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the appointment of Edward Adamu as the deputy governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

Femi Adesina, spokesman of the president, who disclosed this in a statement, said the appointment is subject to the confirmation of the senate.

“In accordance with the provisions of Section 8(1) (2) of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) (Establishment) Act 2007, President Muhammadu Buhari has nominated Mr. Edward Lametek Adamu to the Senate for confirmation as Deputy Governor of the CBN,” the statement read.


“This was contained in a letter dated January 26, 2018 to the Senate President, Bukola Saraki.

“Adamu, from Gombe state, replaces Sulaiman Barau, from Zaria, Kaduna state, who retired in December, 2017.

“The nominee, who has spent 25 years in the CBN, was appointed in 2012 as Director of Strategy.

“He became Director, Human Resources in 2016, from where he was nominated as Deputy Governor.”

Mogidi:
When Saraki returns, PDP would be controlling the Senate. We can even impeach Bubu before 2019.
Interesting, very interesting.

Mogidi,.Mogidi, Mogidi, beware.of the FFK.phenomenon. Na so e de.start.

Everybody now hanging unto the apron string of PMB before even being capable of swiping his/her anus. Many states have gone beyond this wailing stage by becoming more proactive in curtailing herdsmen menace. Please oga gomino, ensuring security of life and properties is first local before being national.

300,000 already captured in the system and are being paid

25000 not yet captured and not being paid. But when one thinks a final solution has eventually arrived, the ugly heard of corruption rears itself

“NUP did not collude with anyone to list 16,238 ghost pensioners to siphon N839 million to fictitious pensioners monthly. Over 25,000 and not 16,238 members are still excluded on the payroll.

Nevertheless, the coverage is quiet commendable, but a 100% coverage is desired.

Not long ago, our retirees were pitiable sights to behold. My memory of their travails is summed up blow

Pension Crisis In Nigeria
•Pension deficit of about N2.3 trillion in 2004.
•Pensioners not being paid entitlements regularly
•Existence of ghost pensioners in the public service.
•Pensioners dying on verification queues
•Unstructured and unfunded private sector schemes.
•Diversion and mismanagement of existing pension fund by BOT and Fund managers.

The above was characteristic of the OBJ regime. Now Pensioners can also smile.

GavelSlam:
OBJ would have been ruthless and successful because OBJ is the master of bribery and subterfuge.

Buhari cannot and would not bribe to have his way so his conscience shackles him.

With such an attitude he makes himself an easy prey to the pack of political jackals. May God save him

GavelSlam:
Agreed .

The problem of insecurity is worrisome.

Some are making political capital out of it .

It is evident some have realised that Nigerians can tolerate anything except death and have begun to use it for selfish gains.

Regardless of whether he contests or not, human life is sacrosanct and all measures must be put in place. State governments also must share in the blame.

With respect to the economy he has done well considering where we are coming from.

Power supply has improved and the people know it.

We can do better.

Would an OBJ presidency have bailed out the states and continue to support them in a time of depression. A big NO without a political collateral. The governors are lilly livered lacking any knack for serious thinking while avoiding basic rrsponsibilities. My little search shows that the regional governments in Ghana are the frontrunners in the fight against criminal herdsmen. Our governors are, just too inept, lazy, and of little value to the common man and the system. Worst still, PMB is too soft with, too pampering of, and too fatherly to them.

Up Delta, always establishing miracle ponzy schemes.

PMB problem is majorly the herdsmen crisis , even though of recent. Nonetheless,the issue gores me so bad. I wish he tackles it very very soon. The possibility of the hand of a 3rf force working assiduously to ensure it persists for as long as possible cannot be overlooked. If solving it means breaking alliances then he shouldn't hesitate. I believe once that is solved his government will be on cruise control again.

OBJ is like a neglected housewife whose only way to attract attention is to be petty, quarrelsome and nag. Some wives like him are better ignored.

January 11, 2015 Nicholas Ibekwe

A former Vice President of Nigeria, Alex Ekwueme, has lamented that despite being a founding member, he has been subjected to “humiliation and neglect” by current leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Mr. Ekwueme, who said this during an interview with the Sun Newspapers, also asked President Goodluck Jonathan to accord him his due recognition as a founding member of the PDP and a former Vice President of Nigeria.
He decried the refusal of the Mr Jonathan to attend his 80th birthday celebration despite being invited; but said his relationship with the president is cordial.
“It (his relationship with Mr. Jonathan) is cordial, but maybe he doesn’t appre­ciate that without my risking my life there would have been no PDP and the popularity that made it possible for him to become the President of Nigeria,” the octogenarian said.
“Okay, I know, for instance, my friend Braithwaite of NAP had his birthday, the President went to Lagos to celebrate with him but I had my 80th birth­day and he did not come.”
On whether the president was invited, Mr. Ekwueme said: “the whole Nigeria was invited. Of course, he was invited but he did not ap­pear personally at any of the events, even the ones in Abuja. So, it is a matter of style.”
He said the PDP of today is not the PDP he risked his life to help to form adding that the party has been hijacked by people who are not in tune with the original ideal of the party.
“The truth is that the PDP as it is today was not the PDP we founded in 1998; that is the truth, I won’t hide it from anybody. It is not the PDP I risked my life to found in 1998. Now, PDP has been hijacked by peo­ple who have no philosophical or spiritual attachment to the precepts that informed formation of the party in 1998,” he said.
“What I en­visaged for PDP in 1998 was that it would be a mass movement, satisfying the needs of the masses and having membership from all over the country.”
While stating that the injustice in the party has chased prominent members of the party to seek their political ambitions elsewhere, Mr. Ekwueme said outside his emotional attachment as the founding member of the party he has no business remaining in the party in its present form.
“People who founded and worked for the party are alienated by poor management of success, and those who do not have the patience, some of us have decided to find new channels to fulfil their political ambitions. I, for instance, the chairman of the party, first chairman of Board of Trustees, first chairman from the civil society to G34 and so on, if I was not myself, I’m not bragging, I am being modest, I have no reason to be in PDP today. All I have received throughout the years is humiliation and neglect.”


He said the party only does the bidding of those he described as “noisemakers” adding the party has an “unfortunate” habit of neglecting the gentlemen among its members who desire to play by the rules.
“I told you that I have no business being in PDP today because I am not a noisemaker. I am not created to be a noisemaker or to create trouble, they are using it to deny me whatever is due to me,” he said. “Because you are a gentleman, you won’t disturb, rather the people who shout and make noise, they try and accommodate themselves so that they don’t create problems, I think it is an unfortunate approach to life. But those who don’t make noise and don’t create troubles also have feelings as human beings and they should not have been denied what is due to them.”
On Mr. Jonathan chances in the South East in the forthcoming election, Mr. Ekwueme said that the president is taking the support of the region for granted and this may cost him votes as he has alienated some of his supporters in the region.
He said he doubted if the president would be able to garner block vote in the forthcoming election like he did in 2011, as he feared many of those who voted for the president then might boycott the election.
“Now, we have election in less than two months, people are disgruntled. At the last election, the state voted overwhelmingly for President Jonathan, we had the highest per cent of all the six geo-political zones for the President. In less than two months when elections are held, many people from South-East may not vote for Muhammadu Buhari for reasons which I will not go into now, but it does not necessarily mean they will vote for Jonathan because of how things have evolved.
“Many will not vote at all. Not casting their votes at all is a minus for the President, so he shouldn’t take the South-East for granted that it will be the same 99 per cent votes that will come from the South- East in 2015. It might not be.”
He said the PDP is in disarray in the South East and for it to make headway in the election it must make efforts to reconcile all aggrieved members.
“Well, because the leadership of the PDP in every state in the South-East does not have coherency, well organised PDP structure today. Ebonyi is in disarray, Enugu is abdicated, Abia, Anambra have about six different factions, Imo is not serious at that, so it requires hard work for PDP to bring together the South-East to how it was eight years ago. My worry is that many of them in the leadership of PDP don’t even realise that there is this danger, they think it is business as usual, so they take South-East for granted that they will vote that same way they voted, 90 per cent of vote to President Jonathan, it may not happen.”

If not for death one wouldn't have known how much PDP loves Ekwueme but in life he was abandoned.

Really lots of policemen.. The truck conveying them must have broken down from the excessive overload. I can even see some of them hanging onto the chassis. How many policemen did I count again, like 280, or no o o its 2000.What the hell its 200,000. Only for Kwakwanso. Walahi he must be Osama bin Laden the 2nd.
