lie and propaganda is the order of the present government

Oga please who would you believe: nairalander who says Jonathan bought stealth ships and fighter drones, or Jonathan's Chief of defence staff himself, the man responsible for procuring everything military related that said the last time new weapons were bought for the Army was in 2006. And That the Airforce was using 1980's era Alpha jets. Please who would you believe?

Rrankdonga:
you sound desperate, like you really want to make sense but you don't know how to go about it. And just so you know, delusion is a terminal disease.

Pele, I understand your plight. Common sense is obviously not common. I pray God blesses you with some in another life. My condolences.

tonyzaks:
All this rant abt jona bought this or that, have we forgotten so soon abt way Alex badeh said? In case we do plus find the link below: -

Immediate past Chief of Defence staff, Alex Badeh is not done talking about the lack of equipment in the Nigerian army. In an interview with Channels TV, Alex Badeh said the last time the Nigerian army received new equipment was in 2006 and that the Nigerian military flies the oldest fighter jets in the whole world. He's now saying all this after he was removed as Chief of Defence Staff.

http://www.reportnaija.com/2015/08/the-last-time-weapons-were-bought-for.html

This link alone has totally destroyed the salt and essence of this thread. Jonathan's chief of Defence staff himself saying Jonathan bought rubbish for the military. Wailers please open the link and enlighten yourselves. Or you guys want to tell me you know more than Jonathan's chief of defence staff?

Bizibi:
ohhh!!!!but you ignored a report that said nyako and co gave false info to the America govt about the last administration concerning the war on terror,

Please where is the report or news article. Post it here.

Iamthoney:
Bros u can lie ooo...shey u dey go battlefield with the soldiers to know sey dem dey underarmed abi u just wish to type poo cos your fingers dey itch u? Try another lie cos we no buy this one at all haba!

Common sense and simple logic! One guy was president for 6years and lost almost half the country to Boko haram. Another guy came in and in less than a year, regained the lost territory with millions now returning home. Common sense will tell you that there was definitely something wrong with the guy that spent 6 years dashing Nigerian territory to boko haram. Common sense please!

erico2k2:
Just cos you sit in ur cocoyam hut is not an xcuse for you not to get informed, today google is everywhere.as we have credit and insurance brokers same we have arms brokers and most times these guys deal cash.How do you think those rebels and militants round the world get arms? there is such thing as black mkt for Arms and its real.

OK since you're so versed in the world of google and the internet, please provide links and online articles showing where sovereign countries (not rebel groups) bought weapons with raw cash in private planes from other countries.

dadabashua1:
i deserved an apology from you for deformation of character... hope you have read it now?

When you can't even spell defamation. Doubt if you even know what it means. Very typical of Jonathan supporters

comshots:
According to report,it was apc that wrote several letters to Eu not to grant gej request to purchase some weapons to fight Islamic terrorists in the north in the excused that the army were human right abusers.This led to the delay and subsequent withheld of several weapons already paid for and were ready to be imported.including the funds seized by south African government.Apc under the command of tinubu was using bokoharam to play politics.

Oga reread your post and see if its sensible. The military under Jonathan was just unprofessional, incompetent and corrupt. Jonathan and his NSA hired the private plane of the Presidents pastor to ferry cash, raw cash into another country under the pretext of buying weapons. Who does that? How many soverign countries have you heard of doing that? That is pure and simple money laundering. Not buying any weapons!
Let's try to be reasonable for once, please!

dadabashua1:
dont think you need it...

Thought as much. Paid agent of disinformation. Coming here to spew thrash with absolutely no evidence
I should report you to the mods.

dadabashua1:
trust me you need help...u have comprehension issues... read my post try and assimilate before commenting next time, in my post I made no mention of corruption or no corruption under his government, neither did I say he was a Saint... my post is all about how this government is pointing blaming fingers on him in EVERYTHING instead of them to solve the problem..... feel sorry for u that don't believe others are entitled to their own opinion.... thanks

Please where's the link to the dubious article? Or it only exists in your imagination? Or you're just about to sit down and write one?

dadabashua1:
trust me you need help...u have comprehension issues... read my post try and assimilate before commenting next.... thanks

Where's your dubious interview? Please provide a link so I can comprehend

dadabashua1:
for the doubting Thomas's in the house... pls try and read the interview a top milliary officer had with premium times... u will hate this present government.... I have never bin harsh towards this government but after reading the whole interview my views about them have bin messed up.... poor gej....just feel sorry for him... a lot of lies was said about him.

You feel sorry for a man whose wife was able to accumulate more than USD15 million from doing nothing! Have you been to yenagoa before? I have and after I saw the opulence and grace of the aridolf hotel in Yenagoa and that massive estate beside it, I stopped feeling sorry for poor old Jonathan. Now I feel sorry for people like you that feel sorry for him. Really sorry for you.

rapistomenka:
These weapons include two stealth ships. One, NNS Centenary is currently serving the Nigerian navy and the second NNS Unity is now on its way to Nigeria.

There are also several helicopter orders from Russia that are yet to be finished, as soon as the construction is over, they will be delivered.

Other high tech stuff GEJ bought included armed drones which were used to hit boko haram, making Nigeria one of the first countries to employ drones in combat.

GEJ's agreement was that our second stealth ship (NNS Unity) would be partly built in Nigeria, but I doubt that will happen now that we have an unwashed mumu without CERTIFICATE in power.

Oga with all your stealth ships and fighter drones, boko haram controlled 3 states and was even moving down south. In less than a year after Buhari came, WE routed (emphasis on WE) boko haram back to the fringes of the Sahara from where thy now launch sporadic attacks.
It is on record that Jonathan's service chiefs bought knocked down and cannibalised alpha jets for our Airforce, without Parts! One of them even crashed in Adamawa and killed our soldiers. Stop defending the indefencible. You're not even making sense. If we had weapons, how and why was boko haram controlling 3 states in the north and even heading south?
Jonathan obviously approved the purchase of weapons for the Military but because of his laxity and weakness, he had absolutely no idea what they bought. Amosun, Badeh, ola Ibrahim and the rest bought a few weapons and Stole the remaining money, more than 90% of it. That's why the EFCC is on their tail today.

DDeliverer:
BUHARI is a good man sha...but badluck just dey follow the guy...
The man no get oil for head...everything wey he touch go just spoil..

Every good thing in life comes with a little bit of sacrifice. The Israelites in the old testament really loathed moses after he took them out of Egypt and into the wilderness. What he did was absolutely right but they were in the desert and had no water. It was understandable for them to despice him. But if only they had seen the bigger picture and had the benefit of foresight, they would have known that something spectacular was in the offing.
Nigeria was and is still in a mess right now. With all the cleansing, fine tuning and recovering that is going on now, our place in the promised land is very much assured. Its just a matter of time.

Nigeria is in a serious dilemma. The variables affecting pump price are just too distant and unpredictable. If the price of oil goes up, our earnings from crude sale is supposed to go up to but those idiots in the delta, blowing up pipelines won't let it be. Then the IOC's that are supposed to sell more dollars to the marketers have less dollars to sell.
The our forex regime is another variable. The higher the value of the dollar, the more expensive it is to import.
These problems we're facing are relics from the past. The past managers of this country really failed us.

some of the stock might still lose a little, but their upward potential in the near future is high.
Now is the best time to invest.
Truly, some people has had their investment money reduce by half, some one and half.
But some that listened when the warning of bear, and its grand father visit was going on sold theirs with just a little loss.
But in the near future bull and its grandfather will visit, people that listen now and invest will smile.
Take the risk and join the billionaire.
(you will not lose anything now if you invest, what I can see in the near future is domination of green and bull)

Hmm. You put okomu as number 1? Okomu that is trading close to its one year high? You wan put our new oga inside gbese.

nwaanambra1:
OGA!

SPARE ME YOUR DIATRIBE!

ARE YOU SAYING FULANIS ARE NOT IN BORNO STATE??

YOU JUST PROVE HOW DUMB YOU ARE! GO BACK AND DO YOUR INVESTIGATION - ALL THOSE GUYS I MENTIONED ARE HARDCORE FULANIS! SOME OF THEM ARE EVEN ROYAL BLOODS!

AS FOR FFK - LIKE I SAID, AM NOT HOLDING FORT FOR HIM - BUT JUSTICE AND EQUITY SHOULD BE FOR ALL - FANI IS NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT WAS GIVEN MONEY! TAKE NOTE - GIVEN NOT STOLEN! HE WAS GIVEN MONEY FOR THE CAMPAIGNS AND HE DID HIS JOB VERY WELL FOR THE PDP! THE MONEY GIVEN TO HIM WAS WELL SPENT! IS THAT CLEAR TO YOU?? HE HAS GIVEN FULL ACCOUNT TO EFCC OF HOW HE SPENT THE CAMPAIGN FUND GIVEN TO HIM! BUT EFFCC IS STILL HELL BENT ON PROSECUTING HIM - HENCE THEIR REASON FOR CONTINUED SEARCH ON HOW TO NAIL FFK!

WHY IS THE EFCC NOT ARRESTING AND RE-ARRESTING OTHERS WHOM SAME FUND WAS GIVEN TO YOU?? AND TO THINK YOU ARE A YORUBA!

OH LEST I FORGOT! DON'T START THINKING THAT YOU LIKE BUHARI MORE THAN I DO - YOU DID NOT EVEN MADE ONE QUARTER OF THE SACRIFICES I MADE FOR BUHARI'S PRESIDENCY - BUT I HATE INJUSTICE!

SO QUITE MY MENTION AND GO TAKE A SIT IN THE GUTTER! YOU FLOCKS OF ABBA KYARIS AND DAURAS THAT CAME IN TO MESS OUR EFFORT AFTER WE SPENT OUR LIVES CAMPAIGNING TO BRING IN THE PRESIDENT!

Thrash!
Compete and utter thrash!
Don't even know what to say to you gutter people with gutter sensibilities and gutter morality, supporting FFK. I'm sure out of Nairaland, you're rogues and criminals like your mentor, FFK. Heck you may even be beneficiaries of FFK's largess. This back and fort with you is hopeless. A pig will always remain a pig. I'll leave you and your morality in the gutter where you belong. Same goes to all your fellow FFK supporters.

Pavarottii:
Yh, until u the supposed intelligent; tell me where it is said that ffk stole money.

Thank you.

I'm very pissed and irritated now because from today, I'm going to associate the name of the legendary composer Luciano Pavarotti with the stupidity and foolishness of this fellow on Nairaland. Its really saddening.

Pavarottii:
Are u okay? Who has said he stole money and tell me where they said it? Please tell me.

Buhari is a fool that fingers his wife in za oza room and only watches cartoon.

Your case is definitely hopeless. I won't indulge you with any form of reply. Continue soaking garri with N20 groundnut and coming online with your 100mb per month plan to defend a man that stole billions from you. Your "wisdom" will set you free.

Pavarottii:
U r one that's pained to me; all d money they av recovered. Which one has reached ur hand. APC won't even employ to be an E-warrior. The truth is that; Buhari is a bastard. That only watches cartoon and fingers his wife in za oza room.

These are the "intelligent" supporters that FFK is amassing online.

nwaanambra1:
oga keep quiet and stop talking like a kid!

am not holding fort for FFK but we all knw tha fani ws the last guy to jump into pdp at the dying minute so how comes he is the only being chased up and down - what about the people who have been there years before him - why are they not hunting them down too!

it is bc fani finished buhari's reputation with propaganda during the elections and to add insult to injury, fani continued with his assault even after pdp lost the election - in fact, he extended his attacks to the entire fulani race! the sad thing was - whatever he said about bubu and the fulanis was the hardcore truth which no one dares to say except the very brave like FAYOSE (i hate that guys balls they cant touch fayose cause he has immunity - so they went for the second guy without immunity or cover! but unfortunately for them, the second guy covered his tracks very well and they cant find anything to use and mess him up - that's why they kept on searching, arresting and re-arresting the poor guy!

DON'T FORGET THAT MAGU, DAURA, ABBA KYARI, BURANTAI AND BUHARI ARE ALL FULANIS - SO YOU SEE THE FORCES THAT FFK IS FIGHTING AGAINST - THE SAD THING IS, ALL HIS PEOPLE THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO STAND ON HIS DEFENSE ARE ALL AGAINST HIM AND SIDING HIS PERSECUTORS! FUNNY THING IS, ITS ONLY THE IGBOS THAT ARE STANDING BY HIM AND ARE DEMANDING JUSTICE FOR HIM THRU THE SOCIAL MEDIA! THE LORD IS HIS STRENGTH SHA!

the fulanis dont forgive - in fact, if not for democracy, they would av assassinated FFK (which am not sure they wouldn't still do it).

Like I said on another thread, most of the people that come on NL to scream persecution or "witch hunt" are illiterates or just ignorant people. Magu is not fulani. He is from borno state. Same as Abba kyari and Buratai. Stop spreading lies to prove your point. Its annoying. In fact I feel like slapping you right now.
Secondly, did you just suggest that I should be supporting FFK in his supossed "struggle" against the state? How much did he give me from the N4.2 billion he stole? How much did he give you? Are you ok at all? You better wisen up and receive sense. FFK is not your friend! He stole money that belongs to you. He is not fighting any imaginary war against any Fulanis. He stole money!!!!
He is a thief!
Ole!

yeyeboi:
Keep defending bad thing u hear

See if you quote me again I will slap that yeye nature from your destiny.

PFRB:
Does the EFCC have lawyers at all. If you make such a discovery, you amend your charge. he is already on bail so if you want him to make clarifications you invite him and after that he leaves. The issues are similar and related so you ought not to arrest and detain again. They should check ACJA.

You tried to make sense but ended up talking trash. Even without going into law, common sense will tell you that they first have to investigate exactly why he collected the N26 million, whether it was with criminal intent. After they've established that a criminal activity has occured, they can amend the charges. That is exactly what the press release by the EFCC said. I'm sure he was invited to explain it and he turned down their invitation. That was why he ran to the media last week to allege that he was about to be arrested. If the EFCC invites you and you refuse to oblige them, they arrest you. Those of us that know the law know how criminals and rogues like FFK operate.
See how you succeeded in getting likes and confusing people without making an iota of sense!

yeyeboi:
Ok

The guy above me is a mumu

I saw your moniker and laughed. These are the foolish and yeye supporters ffk has. Not surprised at all.

porozhniy:
No need getting worked up. The thrust of this argument has been a distinct lack of economic direction under this administration,which you failed to disprove. As for the rice situation, i suggest you take a look at this report.
http://gain.fas.usda.gov/Recent%20GAIN%20Publications/Grain%20and%20Feed%20Annual_Lagos_Nigeria_4-21-2016.pdf.
I ask again how has this administration been different from the last one?

I have repeated the same thing to you and you keep asking the same thing. What kind of policy direction do you want again? I've explained the refinery thing to you. I forgot to even add that buhari in 18 months did what Jonathan didn't have the balls to do in 6 years. Nigeria was bleeding financially because of the corrupt fuel subsidy scheme. The corruption in the subsidy scheme even got worse under Jonathan. We got rid if petrol subsidy because we had a president who had the balls to say enough is enough. I pay crazy to fill my tank every week. Sometimes I even try to manage my fuel and restrict my movements so I end up spending less than N5000 a week. But its better than spending the whole day on a queue. Is that not an economic policy?
Or the budget support facility initiated by the Finance ministry where the states get a stimulus package from the FG if they meet certain fiscal conditions, improve on their budgeting and generate more revenues for themselves. Or the reforms in the FIRS that has been augmenting Federal revenues since the dip in oil prices.
Don't just argue for the sake of arguing. Its very irritating. Don't be an enemy of progress and more importantly try to be on the right side of history. Nigeria is moving forward whether you people (for whatsoever reason) like it or not.

Your link didn't open.

Honestly I will slap anyone that comes here to spew thrash about Fani kayode being persecuted by Buhari. I will seriously slap the taste out of your mouth. If you have nothing sensible to say just read the post and leave the thread. The idiot Fani Kayode that was using our money, N4.2billion to fûck fresh IBO gals did not give any of you a penny from the loot. It is crass foolishness and stupidity to come online and defend that thief with your 200mb per month data plan.

porozhniy:
Removing fuel subsidy and deregulating the market will not build the needed refineries cos the oil marketers will always take the easy way out. Like i replied another poster on here, the smart approach would have been to strong-arm the independent oil marketers into setting up modular refineries or have their licenses not renewed upon expiration (this should be within a given time frame).

Rice has always been produced in Nigeria, we simply do not produce enough, we lack the necessary storage and processing facilities and nothing has changed.
The rice revolution is only happening on the internet (i'm hopeful it'll translate to cheaper prices though).
Blaming the last Administration is not enough cos this present one has done nothing different from the last one.

No need to strong arm anyone. Dangote is building a refinery in LAGOS that can cater to the demand of the entire west Africa. That should end this refinery discussion.
To say nothing has changed with the rice situation is being disingenuous and annoying. Nigeria currently produces more than 3million metric tonnes of rice. Demand is 5 million. We import the shortfall. We will surpass this demand and may even become a net exporter of rice in the coming months if we have a good harvest season.
I hate having any kind of argument or discussion with close minded people who will still remain dogmatic even after you present them with evidence to the contrary. Plus I have absolutely no idea why people wish things get worse in Nigeria and attack anyone that tries to make things better. At the same time you see them here praising those bastards that plundered the country and got us to the situation we're in. Are you people cursed?

porozhniy:
Bros,I did not expect any form of magic from Buhari, I expected purpose driven leadership and clear-cut economic policies for the country whilst taking everyone along.
We spend the bulk of the forex we earn importing refined petroleum products and food we can easily produce, yet 18months down the line:
we do not know the direction we're heading in refining our own petroleum products,
we do not have any plans to be self sufficient in milk,wheat,palmoil and rice production.
these important raw materials for the few industries operating in the country.

Note: The 2016 budget bench mark was pegged at $38, crude oil has averaged $45 all through 2016.
Nigeria does not earn all of it's forex from crude sales, Nigerians living abroad remitted $20.8 Billion in 2015.

but then, it seems you know more about this Administration's economic policies, so can you highlight someof the policies adopted by this administration (short term, medium term or long term) to get us out of this recession?

Even though I totally disagree (with proof) with some of the points you've raised, I'm happy because you're at least offering an intelligent critique unlike the other fools that just come here and scream buhari.
Saying we're not doing anything about refining crude locally is false. At some point this year, before the bombings began in the Niger delta, we were doing around 60% capacity utilization and producing about 10million litres per day in January.

www.google.com.ng/amp/www.premiumtimesng.com/business/196250-nigerian-refineries-now-produce-6-7-million-litres-of-petrol-daily-nnpc.html/amp?client=ms-android-tecno.

Demand for petrol in Nigeria is more than 30 million litres per day. Even if our refineries are producing at optimum capacity, we won't meet local demand. Hence the need to augment with imports. Now we obviously need more refining capacity inorder to reduce our dependence on imports. The government will not and should not build more refineries because the government cannot manage them as we have seen with the ones we currently have. What we can do is encourage private corporations to build. We have taken the right step towards this by deregulating and allowing the market control prices so that private refiners will nit sell at government prices. When dangote refinery and others come on stream very soon, Nigeria will noy only have enough petroleume products for itself, we will also feed the rest of west Africa.

I'm not sure you've been following the rice revolution in the north and some southern states. With the CBN assisted anchor borrowers scheme, plenty small holder farmers have access to credit to improve on their yield per hectare and get better returns from their produce.

The 2015 budget was indeed pegged at USD 38 per barrel at a projected production of 2.2 million barrels per day. Even though the price of oil has hovered above this for most of the year, we have not been producing more than 1.5 million barrels for most of the year because of those fools in the delta blowing up pipelines. Do the maths. There's an obvious shortfall and a deficit to be filled.
I'm not here to hold brief for buhari or anyone. I'm also a victim of this "change". I'm also buying food at crazy prices. The difference is that I know what the problems are and I know exactly who is responsible. I know who the idiot is that came to LAGOS and gave money from our reserves to Obas for a stupid campaign. I know the idiot that told the national assembly he wanted to use USD2.2 billion to fight a war and ended up sharing the money to his party brothers, money that we desperately need now!
We all know that idiot. Let's put the blame for our problems where we should put it.

Bizibi:
lolzzzz.....when news like that come out just know they codedly open the borders....

Now its codedly? You guys are full of thrash. If you have nothing to say its best to keep shut. Stop infecting others with wrong information and ignorance. Please.

sweerychick:
[size=8pt][/size] my dear PMB is not cleaning up any mess of GEJ, rather he's trying to clean up his own mess he created, haven't u noticed that this current administration is now reverting back to the policies of the previous administrations . Let me give you some hints, he has opened our borders now for rice importation something he banned last year. Those chibok girls released is as a result of negotiations (remember that PMB himself heavily critized GEJ when he opted to negotiate with bokoharam, a move in which many called Gej a weakling.) and so on.. So no victor no vanquish, APC wasn't prepared for governance at all..

Bloody lies. I just had to highlight the most obvious lie. Most of the people bashing buhari here are illiterates or people who have completely closed minds. People who cannot understand the issues Nigeria is going through now even if you open their heads and hammer it in with a nail and hammer.
I know you can't read but you can get someone nearby to open this link for you and read it out to you slowly.
