Hmmm. Is there a reason so many senior elected and appointed PDP members in Ekiti state are defecting to APC? Doesn't it seem that Fayose has bitten far more than he can chew with the imposition of Prof. Olusola Eleka over and above so many politicians who suffered with him through the years of his political oblivion? The July 14 Ekiti election will be interesting to observe... Nothing is sure for any party! Fayose's foothold seems shaky...And there is no "Federal might" of Army, Police, Civil Defence cover and "special security arm bands" like he (Fayose) had in 2014... |
willi926:You know nothing about Nigeria's political history. Atiku and Tinubu have come a long, long way! They were both senior members of the SDP in 1992/1993 through the June 12 saga. In that era, Tinubu was a Lagos Senator and Chairman of Senate Committee on Banking & Finance (one of the three most powerful Committees in the Senate of 1992) and Atiku was a Presidential aspirant during SDP's National Convention in Jos. Both Tinubu and Atiku were Gen. Shehu Yar'Adua's boys in that era. Tinubu gave Atiku a soft landing and a refuge when he was booted out of PDP by Obasanjo's hatred and vindictiveness- Tinubu handed the ACN Presidential ticket to Atiku in 2007! Tinubu also wooed and welcomed Atiku into APC in 2013/2014...The only reason Atiku left APC was Buhari- his relationship with Tinubu is super intact. If you know, you know, lol. These two guys have been friends and political associates for almost 30 years! |
Naptu, God bless you for this informative commentary. It is useful to those little children who were either yet to be born as at June 12 1993, 25 years ago, or were too young (at least less than teenage) but who foolishly and ignorantly continue to insult Abiola and other participants in that epic era of politics; an exciting era, as opposed to the current era of daft things called “stomach infrastructure”, “empowerment” (with wheel barrows, tea-making ingredients, grinders, hair-dressing and barber kits, etc), and other inanities. Anybody was who was at least 13 in 1993 would have related well with your apt commentary. Bashorun MKO Abiola, as you rightly stated, had a huge number of business interests in so many diverse sectors of the Nigerian economy. On his famed philanthropic interventions, I can write a book! What MKO Abiola gave to people in education, sports, environment, entertainment, religion (he single-handedly built countless mosques and churches across Nigeria), traditional rulers, etc is 10 times more than anything Aliko Dangote is giving now! There are countless living witnesses to the philanthropist streak of MKO Abiola. His liberal mind caused him to receive countless traditional titles from EVERY STATE in Nigeria- East, West, South, North! No Nigerian, living or dead, has had that Midas touch. He was the champion of reparation for Africa by the band of colonialist countries all over the world. He spent his personal funds, huge funds in fact, to fight that cause! Quite a lot of children took after his exceptional intelligence (Abiola had a First Class BSc. Accounting degree from Glasgow University, Scotland), and he was a chartered accountant and President of the Nigerian Stock Exchange, NSE. Some of them, Wura Abiola, Hafsat Abiola-Costello, and Tundun Abiola had First class degrees too. Wura had a PhD from Harvard...Her management consultancy firm, Management Transformation Limited, in Ikoyi, is thriving. I have heard others such as Jamiu, Lekan, Abdul, Ayo, speak too; and they talked intelligently. History should swiftly return to the school curriculum in Nigeria; I read a lot of unintelligent thrash from the “indomie generation” on NR and elsewhere. A nation that abandons its traditions, history, and cultures will not make significant progress. It will breed a brood of live-for-today clowns who know nothing about where they came from, let alone know about where they are supposed to go... Tragic. For me, the GREATEST thing for which I specially respect Bashorun MKO Abiola is the fact that he refused to chicken out; he rejected a negotiated freedom which would have meant that he betrayed the Nigerian people who voted him. If he had accepted “we-will-free-you-but- forget-about-your-mandate” offer, he probably would have died in exile as a broken man. He died for a cause! Money could never have bought that! Never! MKO is our man o!!! Respect to a worthy Nigerian. |
There are a lot of ignorant nincompoops, nitwits, and deranged clowns on NR. For the sake of your sanity, Ade Shonubi, the CBN Deputy Governor nominee, is just going to replace Bayo Adelabu, from South West, who recently resigned as Deputy Governor at the CBN! This appointment is well deserved. Anyone who knows anything about the banking sector in Nigeria should know Ade Shonubi. The company, NIBSS, where he’s been MD/CEO since 2012, is a foremost, revolutionary payment system solution provider for ALL banks! Ade was an ED at Union Bank prior to being MD/CEO at NIBSS; one could not have been more qualified for this role than that! For the information of dafties on NR; with this nomination, this is the current configuration of the Board of Governors of the CBN: 1. Governor: Godwin Emefiele- South-South 2. Deputy Governor, Economic Policy: Dr. Nnanna- South-East 3. Deputy Governor, Financial Systems Stability, FSS: Aishah Ahmad- North-Central 4. Deputy Governor, Corporate Services, Edward Adamu- North-East 5. Deputy Governor nominee, Operations, Ade Shonubi- South-West With this list, Aishah Ahmad is the ONLY MUSLIM among the CBN Board of Governors! The other 4 are Christians, including the Governor! So, how could any sane human being fault Buhari on this appointment? As at today, there are provisions for only 5 members, that is: 1 Governor and 4 Deputy Governors. So, the only outstanding geo-political region, the North-West, where the President originated from, has NO representative on the CBN Board of Governors. So, how could anyone insult the President regarding tribalism for merely replacing a Deputy Governor from the South-West? Hatred kills faster than AIDS and cancer; children of hate should purge theirselves of the hate for Buhari, for whether or not they like it, Buhari will win a 2nd term and end his tenure in 2023! Haters may commit suicide from the night of May 29 2019!!! |
GavelSlam:Never mind the fool...APP, what party is that? Some clowns just seek cheap publicity by all means. How could this silly party claim "plagiarism" regarding this matter? What should the papas (dead and alive) of NADECO, who toiled for June 12 say? This is a stupid press release that should be placed in a thrash can! They are one of the parties that are appendages of the dead PDP... |
With the state-by-state analysis, showing almost even distribution across the country, the fools who believed that Arabic was included in the police recruitment test, and who threw social media into an unwarranted frenzy of hate and mischief against the FG and JAMB, should be ashamed of their stupidity! In a country where development should be the major consideration, everything has taken the shameful toga of tribe, region, and religion! God help the future of this country, the current children of hate and anger, who are going to take over from their selfish, greedy parents who benefitted from a united Nigeria in the form of scholarships, jobs, appointments, etc, but who have now deliberately sown the seed of unbridled hate among their own children for political reasons! With the hate-filled inter-religious and inter-region bile one reads on social media these days, especially since after Jonathan lost the 2015 elections, only God can sustain the unity of this country and its future existence! The old ones (politicians and the elite) who encourage this hatred marry among themselves (e.g. among many other examples, Sulaiman Mantu's son married Sir Gabriel Igbinedion's daughter; Gov. Ganduje's daughter married Gov. Ajimobi's son, VP Osibanjo's daughter married Bola Shagaya's son, etc, etc) they steal money together, they pop champagne together; but wait for it- the people they 'rule' are busy spending their hard-earned little money buying telco data to exchange insults on social media! What an oxymoron!!! |
ALMUSTAQIM:Thanks my bro/sis. No sane man has time for the fool called Reno Omokri. The guy, a lying bastard who claimed a fake name for selfish reasons, is too bitter and hate-filled to be called a Christian, let alone be addressed as a "Pastor". |
Hear the idiot called Reno Omokri! This is coming from a dumb-ass fool, nincompoop, holed up like a sewage-living rat in the USA like a coward that he is; a fake clown who lied about his identity for political gains, and a devilish, so-called Pastor (God, that title has been so bastardized!)... Reno Omokri, not Buhari, is the joke here; a nonentity who Atiku brought into government to steal and who Jonathan now gave a long rope to hang himself as a rabble-rouser, inconsequential SA! |
Hypocrites! These same PDP e-rats, nonentities, and clowns insulting Senator Stella Oduah praised her to the heavens as a Minister under Jonathan's lame PDP government (even after she was indicted and reluctantly fired owing to her BMW cars' scandal) and continued to hail her as a PDP Senator. However, now that she has dumped their dead party (PDP) for APGA, she suddenly became a devil and is being insulted! Adeyeye dumps PDP, Stella Oduah dumps PDP, Andy Uba dumps PDP, Prof. Tunde Adeniran dumps PDP, Prof. Jerry Gana dumps PDP, Amb. Bejide dumps PDP; who remains in PDP, the dead party of rogues? Some of you will commit suicide on May 29 2019 after Buhari must have been sworn-in as President for a 2nd term! |
LIVEBYTRUTH:We know that people like you are pained to your useless bone marrows regarding this development. However, why do you wicked souls like writing lies so shamelessly? You lied! Buhari’s government DID NOT jail Gani Fawehinmi! Never! If you were too young to know about history, why not use Google? Lazy youth! Nincompoop! |
Paperwhite:You must either be a kid or an illiterate. Assuming you are a teenager, you should have used your thinking faculty, and should have looked up Google for history! Buhari was the ONLY presidential candidate Gani Fawehinmi ever supported in his entire life! History cannot be distorted by clowns like you. Buhari was the Head of State when Gani Fawehinmi ignored the rule made by NBA that no lawyer should take legal briefs regarding the military tribunals established to try corrupt politicians! Gani publicly told the world that he will take the legal briefs (and he did) because Buhari was a very honest man who was fighting corruption. NBA sanctioned Gani but he never cared. He stood by Buhari both as military Head of State and as a civilian candidate. That was the reason Keyamo willingly accepted Buhari’s campaign spokesman offer. In all of Buhari’s previous attempts at the presidency, in Gani’s lifetime, he campaigned for Buhari. So, next time, when you respond to issues, educate yourself. Stop displaying your stinking ignorance on social media! |
madridguy:Let me list those people: 1. Wicked, shameless, I-know-it-all, Mr. Perfect, Obasanjo will have insomnia tonite! Lol. 2. Tribal bigots 3. Religious fanatics 4. Children of unbridled hate who post profanity and hateful bile on NR, Sahara Reporters, Premium Times, Vanguard, Tribune, Authority, Igbere News, Blueprint, Daily Independent, etc 5. People who foam in the mouth, have seizures, go suddenly angry, and generally stop living their lives the moment they hear “Buhari”, etc, etc.. Buhari till 2023...There is absolutely nothing haters can do about it. Some people will commit suicide on May 29, 2019 after Buhari must have been sworn-in for a 2nd term! LOL! |
The old fool, Olusegun Obasanjo, who is from Abeokuta, Ogun State, like the great MKO Abiola, but who hates to compete with any human being, who sees himself as Alpha and Omega of Nigeria, won’t sleep well tonite. A President who is from the North, and who so many stupid clowns needlessly hate with unbridled passion, has done the thing an Egba man foolishly, selfishly, and arrogantly refused to do! Two different Federal Governments refused to do this and the docile, weak, clown (Jonathan) who tried to do anything, rather stupidly tampered with UNILAG without being well advised and it backfired. |
pauljumbo:You are the confused one here! In fact, you are daft...The press statement clearly stated that June 12 has replaced May 29; therefore, henceforth June 12 is the New Democracy Day. How is that difficult to understand? It was written in very simple English language! There are so many illiterates on NR who only attended mushroom schools but who are damn infantile, dumb, and behave like nincompoops! Why won’t Buhari describe some of you as lazy? |
Turantula:You DO NOT have a brain! It happened in Côte d’Ivoire (Ivory Coast); not Nigeria!!! Hatred for Buhari will kill you, nincompoop; deranged nonentity... |
It’s a surprise to see the press address him as “Mr.” Nyame. He’s always been known as Reverend Jolly Nyame. The wages of sin... |
FarahAideed:YOU ARE THE DULLARD! PLEASE SEE BELOW: Sun newspaper and publishing of false title yet again! Why portray the FG in bad light when the report clearly indicated that state governments got a whopping $619 million out of the total of $670m, meaning that FG's share was only $51m? Other major newspapers carried the report correctly, without any dubiously false slant like this one! These are examples of how other major newspapers carried the correct title (with facts): https://newtelegraphonline.com/2018/05/just-in-transparency-international-accuses-fg-states-of-misusing-670m-security-votes/ Transparency International accuses FG, states of misusing $670m FG, states squander $670m - OAK TV [b]https://www.oak.tv/newstrack/federal-republic-nigeria/ Transparency International, a global anti-corruption body, yesterday alleged that the federal and state governments in Nigeria would be expending an estimated $670 million (N241.2 billion) in respect of “security votes” in the build up to the 2019 elections. Most of the estimated $670 million of security votes is disbursed by state governments, with federal spending making up only $51 million. [/b] The issue about security votes is that until the Nigerian Constitution is amended to stop it, there is nothing anyone can do about it... We should rather encourage the National Assembly to amend that part of the Constitution than masturbating on a false thread because of your hatred for Buhari, who, by the special grace of God, will be sworn-in for a 2nd term on May 29 2019!!! |

Someone who should know just gave a hint to me that Ayo Fayose and Bola Tinubu have been holding clandestine meetings in Lagos since Fayemi emerged as APC candidate in the Ekiti elections. They also spoke extensively on the phone after Adeyeye defected to APC yesterday... People who know about the internal workings of both parties claimed that the reason Fayose had been courting Tinubu since the past 2 years is now coming to the fore. If anyone may recall, Fayose made a special youtube video to celebrate Tinubu's 65th and 66th birthdays resepectively, where he wore a classy Yoruba traditional attire... Also, he (Fayose) always referred to Tinubu as "our undisputable leader" even as he is the only PDP Governor in the South West and despite that he continued to insult Buhari, who is in the same APC with Tinubu! Furthermore, owing to the slight and insult heaped on Tinubu by Fayemi (and Fashola) since they became Ministers under Buhari, Tinubu has been waiting to pay them back. A master political strategist that he is, these same people said that the grand plan was for Tinubu to execute an "anti-party" action and support Fayose's Deputy Governor and PDP candidate, Prof. Olusola and therefore defeat Fayemi after which Prof. Olusola and Fayose may eventually decamp to the APC after their win... Political intrigues at its best...Watching events unfold in 5D, lol... |
lilfreezy:This is the most senseless, irritatingly daft post I have read this year! Some people do not have a brain, God knows. What has Islamic schools got to do with closure of illegal schools, one of which is Al-Bayan Nursery & Primary School in Share, which from its name, is most probably owned by a Muslim too? What has "Yoruba ronu o" got to do with closure of illegal schools? Religious and ethnic bigotry are twin evils that have stunted the development of this great country, Nigeria, and seeing so-called young, educated people (like the nincompoop who wrote this brainless drivel I am responding to) advance the causes of those two evils on Nairaland(and elsewhere) makes one think that the country's future is bleak! God help us all! |
Pardon my French, but I dare say that there are so many nincompoops on NR... The fulcrum of this thread is this: "A student of KOGI STATE ORIGIN, Miss Fatima BomBom Sani, emerged THE BEST GRADUATING STUDENT and WON COUNCIL OF LEGAL EDUCATION STAR AWARD at the 2015 CALL TO BAR EXAMINATION OF THE NIGERIAN LAW SCHOOL." "She has been granted a SCHOLARSHIP to the tune of N33 MILLION, by GOVERNOR YAHAYA BELLO." "The Governor lamented the LACK OF APPRECIATION FOR ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE in modern day NIGERIA." "She was not rewarded by the government of the day in 2015, before Yahaya Bello became Governor in 2016." Instead, almost 100% of responses have been about 'he will marry the girl', 'scholarship inside private room', 'the girl's bum', 'the girl is a Muslim being awarded by a fellow Muslim', 'Yahaya is a fool', 'Yahaya is this and that', etc. Are people this daft? |
PVision2020:OYINLOLA IS A CHRISTIAN, and he also had a Christian Deputy Governor, Princess Obada! You may accentuate your opinion without lying, please. |
The ape called Olusegun Obasanjo who thinks he owns Nigeria is at it again! How could the old-hag, senile clowns in Afenifere work with a confirmed Awolowo hater who insulted and mocked the founder of Afenifere, Obafemi Awolowo, during and after his lifetime? Awolowo must be turning in his blessed grave seeing this senseless, evil collaboration! A review of the real Obasanjo is contained in Pa Ayo Adebanjo's recently launched book- the real Obasanjo is a cruel, wicked, vain, evil, megalomaniac who thinks only about himself and sees every other human being as incompetent and unworthy; and who shamelessly sleeps with anything in skirts! This same useless mofos of Afenifere collected millions of naira and US dollars from the docile Goodluck Jonathan in 2015 but had him humiliated in the elections! They will cry again in 2019, together with their Mr. Know All Obasanjo! These are people who cannot win any election conducted in the polling booth in front of their houses in Lagos, Oyo, Ibadan, Akure, Owo, Idanre, Osogbo, Shagamu, Ijebu-Igbo, etc ranting and raving with Obasanjo only because they hate Buhari! When some Yoruba leaders started shouting about marginalization during the reign of Jonathan he quickly appointed one of the Afenifere clowns, Deinde Agborofa, as Chief of Staff! Now that the corruption tap has been shut, the fools in Afenifere are sad and ganging up against Buhari! The same way they ganged up against Buhari in concert with Gani Adams' and Fredrick Fasehun's OPC ahead of 2015 elections and they FAILED WOEFULLY, THEY WILL FAIL AGAIN IN 2019! The same clown called Obasanjo publicly insulted almost every President/Head of State that ruled after him- Shagari, IBB, Abacha, Yar’Adua, Jonathan; and now Buhari. He is the only perfect man; ‘political god’; the Ultimate God will shock this gorilla in 2019! These worthless nincompoops in Afenifere (Fasoranti, Okunroumu, Arogbofa, the jobless-anything-goes-give-me-money-and- I-will-sing-for-you Odumakin, etc), and others like them, must commit suicide from May 29 2019 when Buhari, the tall, slim, ramrod-straight General with the gap-tooth is sworn in for his 2nd term! |
Elmojiid:Odion Ighalo is from Edo state; he is not Igbo... |
The fools at that National Assembly unilaterally added N500 billion to the 2018 budget! Why wouldn't they considering that the era of forcing Ministers and Heads of agencies and parastatals to pay bribes before budget approval has gone with the arrival of Buhari as President? In the days of Obasanjo, Yar'Adua and Jonathan as President, National Assembly thieves made so much money through that fraudulent system! They will never like Buhari because their 'tap of corruption' has been shut! |
Ordinary Nigerians, never, ever die for politicians! This same Prince Adeyeye insulted the hell out of APC and APC members both as a Minister under PDP's Jonathan and also as the Publicity Secretary of PDP under the chairmanship of Makarfi! In fact, on the eve of the primaries he lost to Fayose's boy, Prof. Olusola Eleka, he still insulted Fayemi and other APC candidates! Now, he's going to join the same APC! This potential is like La Mohammed defecting to PDP... Politics in Nigeria is funny- there's no PDP, APC, Labour, APGA, the ONLY umbilical cord is PERSONAL INTEREST! |
Fools! The rotten, dead party of thieves, vagabonds, murderers, felons, 419 kingpins, drug barons, and unrepentant looters called PDP are at it again! We thought they wanted to boycott the same local government elections! Going by the results, APC 17 vs PDP 4, El-Rufai must be commended. In the history of local government elections since 1999, in every local government election conducted by states' electoral commission in each state, the ruling party usually wins 100%! This is the first time ever that an opposition party had won such a number of local government chairmanship seats! Also, this is the second time any sub-national (state/province) had used electronic voting in the whole of Africa; Nairobi was the first! El-Rufai, like most committed reformists, are usually hated or loved in almost equal measure- they have passionate haters just as they have passionate lovers! History tells us that to "be loved by everybody", do nothing and you will become nothing! I give huge kudos to Nasir El-Rufai, even if, like any other human being, I do not like some of his decisions and some of his approaches to governance... |
I have just read the news story regarding the court proceeding at the Federal High Court Lagos, yesterday, on how Rashidi Ladoja as PDP Governor of Oyo state looted the treasury and particularly unilaterally ordered the sale of the state's shares for a discounted rate of N1.6 billion without any State Executive Council meeting or approval and pocketed the entire N1.6billion! N1.6 billion in 2003-2007 (11-15 years ago) was a huge amount of money! And this same thief, old fool bastard called Rashidi Ladoja is in PDP pontificating about good governance! PDP started well (with the founding fathers such as Alex Ekwueme, Solomon Lar, Abubakar Rimi, and others) but derailed completely from 2003 after Obasanjo's first term. The party, PDP, became an albatross on 'the neck of' Nigeria, it became a party of hired assassins, shameless thieves, murderers, 419 kingpins, drug barons, unrepentant looters, etc! Unless (and until) they change their name, PDP can never be redeemed in the sight of majority of Nigerians. The party is dead! |
Ayo Fayose has completely changed the psyche of the average Ekiti man and woman. All we hear about that state is FOOD! Stomach infrastructure. Imagine the condescending announcement regarding not rushing for food that was made by the coordinator of the congress... A state that is reputed to have the highest number of Professors (it is claimed that every household has/had at least one Professor) has been turned to a state of hungry, food-mongering, groveling, crowds! This is the state that produced Prof. Akin Oyebode (renowned Prof. of Law and respected academic guru); Mr. Aluko Oyebode (co-founder of highly successful law firm, Aluko & Oyebode, immediate past Chairman of Access Bank and board-room guru); Prof. Bolaji Aluko; Mr. Femi Falana, SAN, renowned, consistent human rights activist; the super-intelligent Otitoju sisters; Chief Afe Babalola, SAN, one of the grandfathers of legal practice; Gen. Adeyinka Adebayo, foremost soldier, brilliant officer and administrator, etc, etc... Shame! |
Esseite:Illiterate! It was a South West rally, not only for Osun PDP! If this is the scanty crowd PDP could arrange for 6 South West states of Lagos, Osun, Ogun, Ondo, Ekiti, and Oyo, they have FAILED! |
Banmeallday:Are you so daft? This picture was published by ALL major local and international media outlets but your bigoted hatred forced you to write “fake”. Some of you hate-filled cretins must commit suicide or go on self-imposed exile from May 29, 2019 when this tall guy is sworn in as President for a 2nd term! |
Man of destiny- the tall, ramrod straight, gap-toothed boy from Daura. See Donald Trump grinning in excitement as Buhari signs the visitor's book at The White House. He has many foibles and made mistakes, but EVERYTHING considered, in my opinion, the Daura boy (Buhari) is a FAR BETTER choice among the cacophony of thieves seeking to rule Nigeria in 2019! Between Mr. Corruption (Atiku) and Mr. I Own Nigeria's (Obasanjo's) Third Force of the same old men, I prefer Buhari, a man who will not personally, shamelessly and openly ask for bribes, kickbacks, budget padding etc... |
