God bless you Oga Metuh. APC and their members are full of deceits, and they sell their lies and propaganda by shouting CHANGE. Our great country Nigeria is not a BUS that need a conductor to give #Change. Nigeria is a PLANE that need a good pilot and GEJ is it.

GEJ till 2019 joor

If APC can reduce crude oil theft by 70% then it is a done deal.
Stolen crude and unremitted fund
from NNPC can cater for it.
PDP shouldn't be making it look like all we get is thrown back into our budget.

have heard time and time again from you,
President Jonathan, that one of the reasons I
should vote for you is to ensure the continuity of
your programs. You repeated this at your Lagos
State campaign rally when you angrily asked me
for my vote. You concurrently criticised Nigerians
in the diaspora and Nigerians on social media,
whom you accused of unfairly criticizing your
government.
You have forgotten that millions of Nigerians on
social media, including yours truly, voted for you
in 2011 because we were deceived into believing
that you had a vision and a plan for Nigeria. You
reeled out 91 electoral promises and we thought
you really did intend to fulfill at least 75% of
those promises. Unfortunately, you fulfilled only 8
out of the 91 electoral promises you made during
your campaign as you moved from state to
state, raising the expectations of millions of
Nigerians, only for you to dash our hopes. Do
you want me to allow the continuity of the
stealing in your administration that you said is
not corruption?
Where is Nigeria's missing $20b generated from
crude oil sales? Where is the audit report
indicting your administration for stealing $20b?
Where is the N4 trillion you have spent on
security in the last 4 years? Where is the $50m
per day that you have generated for yourself
since 2010 from crude oil theft in conjunction
with the 12 oil tankers, PEACE 1-12 belonging to
your wife under the protection of the Nigerian
Navy? Where is the $1b that you and Stella
Oduah stole in the aviation sector under your
fake airport remodeling and aviation
transformation agenda? Where is the N3-N4b
per year that you budgeted for food at Aso
Rock?
Where are the reports of all the fake committees
that you have set up so far? There should be
close to 100 committees.
Why did you hire soldiers and policemen to drive
your campaign buses to the Northwest and
Northeast because Nigerians have refused to do
so at any price?
Why are you using soldiers and policemen to
paste your campaign posters across Nigeria
simply because ordinary Nigerians have refused
to do it for you?
Why are you bastardizing our soldiers and
policemen and misusing them?
Why did you transport thousands of people from
17 southern states to Lagos for your campaign
rally to deceive Nigerians that Lagosians support
you? Why did you induce them with bribes to
come to Lagos for your campaign rally?
Where are the almost 300 Chibok girls that your
service chiefs told us they had initially rescued,
only for them to tell us that they had not
rescued them. To make matters worse for your
electability, your ministers and service chiefs told
us numerous times that you know where the
Chibok girls are; yet 8 months after they were
kidnapped, you have not rescued them. Where
are the remaining women, girls and boys running
into the thousands who have been made sex
slaves and suicide bombers by terrorists who
should have been exterminated by you in a war
on terror poorly executed by you?
Why did you dance over the graves of the almost
100 Nigerians that were killed at the Nyanya
Abuja Bus Park by refusing to postpone your
political rally as a gesture of respect towards the
dead? Why did you do the same thing after over
200 Kano residents were killed by Boko Haram
at the Kano Mosque close to the palace of the
Emir of Kano? Why did you repeat this act of
dancing "azonto" and "skelewu" at a PDP
political campaign rally after over 50 boys were
slaughtered by Boko Haram at a Federal
Government-owned boarding school in Borno
State? This is why I was really surprised to see
you postpone your meeting with the PDP
campaign council because of your sister's death.
Your actions show that lives of ordinary
Nigerians mean nothing to you. As long as you
family members are fine, you don't care who
dies. Nonetheless may the soul of your sister
rest in perfect peace.
Why have your ministers and PDP spokespersons
been engaging in doublespeak on the APC and
General Buhari's purported support for
insurgency? Why have they been saying after
each bomb blast that APC and General Buhari
are behind the planning and execution of each
bomb blast only for the same people to say
recently that all panels set up to investigate the
APC and Buhari found no evidence whatsoever
linking the APC and General Buhari to Boko
Haram and terrorism? Why do you like engaging
in petty politics? Why are you playing politics
with the lives of Nigerians? You said that you
know those who are supporting Boko Haram and
that they are in your government but how come
you are yet to fish them out and arrest them?
How come you said, before any investigation was
carried out after the Oct. 1st 2010 bomb blast,
that MEND had nothing to do with the the bomb
blast only for you to state on the 8th of January,
2015, almost 4 years after, that MEND was
responsible for the Oct. 1st bomb blast? Why are
you inconsistent?
Why did you say that you have no enemies when
you know that as Nigeria's Chief Executive, your
job is to step on toes as you sign legislative bills
passed by the National Assembly into law and
enforce them? Why did you say that your style of
leadership is to engage only in the prevention of
corruption but not in punishing it by sending
criminals to prison? What should we do with our
criminal and penal code that prescribes various
terms of imprisonment for various crimes?
Should those laws be discarded? Could this be
responsible for why almost every prison under
your administration has experienced jail breaks
on a weekly basis? Would you please tell us why
you engage in and condone corruption,
criminality, militancy, terrorism, theft, and
impunity?

what ve we gained from his young president that an old man can't double?
I'll rather ve an old man leading Ekiti than the young but mentally deranged man.

If
you want a free dose of acrimony, just start
discussing Nigeria and her politics and you'll get
a bonanza of what you wished for.
President Jonathan and General Buhari
A celebration from certain folks who identify
themselves as Buharists with a lofty practice of
chorusing "Sai Buhari" upon the news of the
emergence of Buhari as the winner of the APC
presidential primaries deals a blow of a
comfortable disappointment in my eyes. How can
you possibly celebrate the emergence of Buhari in
a party that had better options of presenting
refined people like Fashola or better options like
Fayemi and Oshiomole? Even Rochas Okorocha is
a more comfortable joke than the coup d' etat
General.
The country is insane! The citizens are clueless
and myopic. If you can rejoice that a man who
over-threw or benefited from the usurpation of a
democratically elected government, is openly
unapologetic over it and ran a very brutal and
abusive junta, then you deserve the clueless man
in Aso Rock ten times.
This is a man who said he will not contest for the
Presidential race again, defended the monstrous
junta of Abacha as "not corrupt," presided over a
petroleum ministry where funds running in the
billions disappeared under his watch and yet you
chorus about his integrity? Do you know what
integrity means? Someone says he won't do a
thing and next tomorrow he wakes up doing the
same thing he promised never to get involved in
and you are not worried about a man of such
personage? If he could not keep to his word, why
would he keep to his promises upon being
entrusted with power?
This is a man who has not presented any
manifesto, plan, nor submitted any idea or plan
he intends to runs with if elected into power. All
we hear is "I'll fight corruption," "Vote me and my
party and they'll be security," and "I am the
answer to a buoyant economy," etc. How the heck
do you intend to bring these superficial promises
to light? Will you fart out insecurity? You think
the economy is run by rhetorics? Or you want to
fight insurgency with words of mouth? No
explanation, no manifesto, nothing practical just
cheap vague promises and the mindless followers
chorus "Sai Buhari!"
I do not understand folks in Nigeria. If you think
that Buhari will do a better job simply because
the man in Aso Rock is acting like a clueless
docile which makes it easy for the Sharia
enthusiasts to fart any vague rhetoric to your
patronage, then I laugh.
You do not find it shameful and disturbing that in
a country of over 170 million people, the best that
could be offered to contest for the Presidency are
a Sharia enthusiast who over-threw a
democratically elected government and most
importantly has no plans and manifesto to offer
and a disappointing commander-in-chief who
runs a government of proud incompetence and
loud cluelessness. I am ashamed.
In a saner clime neither GMB or President
Jonathan would have been allowed to preside
over a nursery school not to mention a country of
over 170 million people. Sorry, we are lost. A
country where two non-senses are put before you
to try to make sense from them. Meanwhile, this
is the same nation where we have the likes of
Donald Duke, Fashola, Nuhu Ribadu, and few
others and they are in perfect fettle. Sai! Una
shame me!

copy and paste. You deserve no like.

Watching wit keen interest.

sweetTyler4real:
May be Buhari should Contest for Governorship
Election!!!

While Tinubu should should go for Ojuwelebga chiarmansship

Hahahahhahah

Jst laughing at APC

Bounch of failures

maybe you should sponsor Jonathan to become the next UN Secretary General since there is no reason coming out of the number one citizen.

bestman09:
From being the 4th citizen to a mere governor of a mere sakwoto state.

I laugh in Arabic.

Maybe Atiku should also be persuaded to contest for the governorship of Adamawa state or Fashola should contest for the chairmanship of Ojo local government

I am nominating you for the post of Jonathan's family head since in your opinion he can't be the head of Nigeria and later come to be the head of something lower which is his family.
it's your type that will say they are bigger than councilorship post, but your councillors is a primary school drop out.

Saharareporters would have done a good job like giving us the mansion's address, the receipt, the picture of the building. believing this crap is by no means the height of ignorant.

akpabio used 39.8bn to build a 30,000 seater capacity stadium dats too much compared to the sports village Govn Amaechi built and completed only wit 34bn 2 Olympic size swimming pool, 2 standard long tainis cout, 2 standard voly ball pitch 40,000 seater capacity standard stadium with xtra 2 training pitch etc.
#Whoisfoolingwho

it is no longer born to rule North (hausa) again. Very soon, we will be hearing born to rule Ikweres.
Very true, the Ikweres are situated in the northern part of Rivers state map.

anonimi:
General Muhammadu Buhari will fight against nepotism, when he is nepotism PERSONIFIED himself
Can the devil fight against himself?
You guys are taking your packaging of this old soldier too far methinks!

A military DICTATOR who in 1983 cancelled Jakande's Lagos metro rail construction out of petty ethnic jealousy not minding the huge breach of contract costs involved
Have you seen the list of members of his cabinet during his two years of MISRULE? Let me share it with you so you can figure out Alhaji Nepotism himself =>


1. Head of State, Muhammadu Buhari
2. Chief of Staff, Tunde Idiagbon
3. Defence, Domkat Bali,
4. Agriculture, Bukar Shuaib
5. Trade, Mahmud Tukur
6. Communications, A Abdullahi,
7. Education, Yarima Ibrahim
8. Finance, Onaolapo Soleye
9. Abuja, Mamman Jiya Vatsa,
10. Health, Emmanuel Nsan,
11. Internal Affairs, Mohammed Magoro
12. Foreign Affairs, Ibrahim Gambari
13. Minister of Info., Samson Omeruah
14. Transportation, Abdullahi Ibrahim
15. Energy, Tam David-West
16. Justice, Chike Ofodile
17. Works, Patrick Koshoni


That would be six only out of 17 positions, right

This is one of the reason why i'll not and will never vote for Jonathan,
Buhari built rd for north what did Jonathan do for South? Nothing, rather he continued where you think buhari stopped by building more rd for d north.
Buhari gave north political post while all d security chiefs are still for d north under Jonathan. You know see that one abi.
You have nothing against Buhari until u prove to me that he is corrupt.
Buhari all d way.

Goddex:
Buhari is a very dull and uninteligent man. He can never be my President. NEVER!!!

If you're wiser your comment would ve said so. But you're not. Open you eyes and free your mind.
1 Buhari is better than 10 of what you have in mind

size38:
Buhari is correct. For over 3 months now we have not seen a flash of light where I stay in Phc.

this year has been the worst.
We no longer paying for light bill. Rather we are now paying for darkness bill.

Dmano:
When i saw that lie 4rm buhari i turn off my tv,4000mw b4 1999,haba buhari dont change ur name 2 lai lai

i will rather stick to d less than 2000mw b4 1999 than this PDP 4000mw on media.
In my whole life as a nigerian i ve not suffered blackout of dis proportion that i ve suffered this year alone. And you are telling me that there is increase.

ChimaAdeoye:
So sad that criminals like Amechi control the fate of other Nigerians.
Rivers state budget is bigger than Rwanda, Tanzania, Zambia and a host of African countries entire national budget! These countries have to contend with big population, a national army, police, Air Force and embassies around the world!

Yet these countries capital cities and other cities are better than only port harcourt that we are begging Amaechi to fix!

its ppl like you that see amaechi as a failure but embraces JEG. If Rivers state budget is bigger than that of Tanzania and other countries you mentioned then what would you say of Nigeria's budget which is under JEG's supervision.
Amaechi is on a class of its own wen it comes to development.
The said rd you guys are talking abt was abandon bcus of Patience thugs who are bent on distracting Amaechi progress. This thugs on daily bases comes around to harass contractors working d rd for matching ground.
Amaechi being a wise man who doesn't ve their support because of Madam PEG decided to abandon the road and take the scarce resources to wall Dline where he will be appreciated.

davo3286:
@Bolded. You didn't read the post. Did you?

you didn't read the topic. Did you?

ChimaAdeoye:
[size=14pt]I hope EFCC is taking evidence and documenting the River State monthly allocations,IGR and how it is being spent.

The Rivers State budget is always about N490 Billion naira which is bigger than Lagos budget of about N488 Billion naira. If Fashola who has a bigger civil service and many spectacular projects can find money to invest in his even longer light rail, i wonder where Rivers money is going.

Rivers state budget of more than $3 Billion dollars is bigger than the annual budget of 40 out of 54 African countries!

This is not going to be about APC or GEJ politics, this man must not be allowed to enjoy the peoples money he is stealing.[/size]

you came to look for "like"
you ve nothing to say.

wisemikky:
Everything, this guy would blame federal government. The so called state roads which he claims to be fixing, how many has been completed. I relocated from Abuja to PH and boy, the city is a huge pile of Sh*t. A whole oil city. Gov. AMAECHI would wake up every morning fighting his president till he goes to bed at night. Secretly looting the states treasury and creating confusing everywhere so as to keep the people busy while he steals.

He and Kwankwaso are d worst governors in Nigeria at the moment.

Abeg your lie no sweet.
Mention another governors jor.

I want to believe that everyone commenting on this post bu onye Igbo or onye Ala Igbo di nma.
If i'm correct then i will urge us not to compare our Igbo governor ineptness with that of other state governors.
Because Fashola didn't do it well doesn't mean that we shouldn't demand good governance from our Igbo leaders.
Fashola is not a yardstick for good governance. As much as Fashola has done i think that there is still more to do. But that is not for us to use his short fall to justify our Igbo leaders poor governance.

OP your post would ve made little sense if you hadn't mentioned Jonathan in it. But since you did, i smell nothing but outright hatred.
Amaechi can't in jst less than 8yrs transform all d schools in Rivers state to world class standard as he is already doing.
Amaechi has completed nothing less than 300 standard schools. Not the straight wall building other governors celebrate in this 21st century as school.
He has not stopped building schools. Many school project are still ongoing. If not for the reduction in Federal allocation many more would ve been completed long ago.
The last time i heard Amaechi spoke on radio he said it emphatically that he never promised Rivers ppl that he will finish everything like road, school, health care.
I love good things and i knw the Op and all anti Amaechi also do. Amaechi has not fail in giving Rivers state the best in terms of road, heath care and school.
Hate him or like him he has done above average wen compared wit his collegue and predecessors.

so shall it be.
Amen.

Things are really controversial.
Mbu and d name Amaechi.
There is something to it than meet the eyes.

barcanista: That video isn't convincing at all. No one can say when it was shot or who shot what. AFP are time-wasters

I've not watched d video but i think from what i read, his statement can attest that the video wasn't shot b4 he was purportedly killed by NA.

careytommy: U had respect 4 him b4? Smh

I never had ryt wen he was speaker

maybe your respect was to Odili, Amaechi out performed him in all things apart from sharing of money

chidekings: the guy was actually attacking nigeria amd Gej,end of the day he end up not asking questions assigned to him.

your english shows that even if Amaechi was making sense in d interview, you mind has already been tuned not to understand any thing he said.
Your reasoning is even painting nigeria bad than you think Amaechi did.

slimfit1: But he is right now, do you think people in America and even England gained freedom from just looking people at the top abuse power. We love to be deceived this is what you are implying. Take the message no matter how bitter it taste.

a
you are on point my friend. They bliv dey are not lazy but the type of leadership dey ve can only emanates from lazy ppl.
As citizens we should hide our head in shame wen those we need to demand accountability from are d one turning round to demand it from us. We are lazy until we kick dem lazy morons outa office.

drnoel: This tells u what a raving lunatic Amaechi is. RIvers elected a manic-depressive person for govenor. So he has finished fighting GEJ and PEJ and has now decided to take on the people of NIgeria. He should wait, his tenor is almost over and he will get what is coming to him

look at the set of ppl you said amaechi is fighting, the number one lazy set of ppl we ve in nigeria.

arantess: ...his ikwerre people are the lazy ones....my igbo peeps are hardworking. Period...yeye governor

low mentality is what is killing us. And that is what Amaechi is referring as lazy. Don't think that wen you push truck from owerri to Aba then you're a hard working man.
It is your type that will not come out to vote. That is d lazyness amaechi is talking abt. Ppl that will sell their vote for some cups of rice. Tell me that they are not lazy.

basisop: They the politicians are the only lazy Nigerians who feast on our tax. An average Nigerian is loaded with hustle. That Governor is loquacious.

If nigerians are not lazy, how on earth will they be governed by lazy ppl.
Nigeria is filled with lazy (poor mentality) ppl.
If we are not lazy we wouldn't ve had d kind of leaders we ve now. Take it or live it.

Before i say anything for or against, where and what is the source of this interview?

tit: bigot,
nobody cares where you are from.
I am a Yoruba girl married to an Eggon man but I do not go around blowing my trumpet as a detribalised Nigerian.
I just have my say.
Shikena!

na wa for you o
you jst told us where you're frm.
You even went on to tell us where you're married to.
Shame on you for not removing d log in your eye b4 tryin to blow out d tiny sand in someone's eye

McWhillion: and why are you trying to popularize him, he doesn't deserve it. Let him shut his trap and stop painting what his already black blacker. Those that accepted the 50k still reported what they found, so what the heck is his problem?

your type are d problem we ve in this country.
