Ekong, well done!

Chima Igwe got promoted for claiming that he has PHD he did not have. When his lies got exposed, he went back to school, and this time, to buy PHD. After purchasing PHD, he returned to his old job to reclaim the position he previously Lost over lies.

Where is Chima Igwe from?
Enugu or Owerri?
Pick one.
No shame at all

Buyer be warned!
Nigeria passion for university degrees has not made Nigeria a better country. Instead, it is making Nigeria a lying headquarter for entire world.

The lesson here, You got to be ashamed of telling people that you are a Nigerian!

"The Senate has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to declare bandits as terrorists."


I agree!
The proliferation and dissemination of arms into the hands of Nigerians have made Nigeria unsafe to live. This is how it started in Somalia back in 1991. And today, a country of Somalia is a failed state, according to the United nations and other world countries.

It is fair to say that Nigeria is a failed state. A failed state is one in which the central government can no longer protect the lives and safety of their citizens and difference factions fight to gain influence. Isn't this what is happening in Nigeria today?

So, I call on both the Nigerian Senate and House of representatives to pass a bill calling on Nigeria military to immediately declare a state of emergency and allow military to take over government from president Buhari. That will be a lasting solution to ongoing menace in Nigeria.

"We all followed the lecturer to the school canteen and grabbed a drink, even when a white boy was insisting not to collect the offer, the lecturer was begging him that he had already paid for every body that the boy should just take a drink."


Black people are historically more strict than whites---traced to the history of slavery .Zimbabwe served as a good example. Zimbabwe was a great country until black people took over in the early 1980s. Jobs were available for anyone who wanted one. Most neighborhoods were crime free. Movement of people was excited. But when Dr Robert Mugabe became president, he imposed authoritarian policies all the country---leading to migration of white people out of the country. What followed next was hunger,massive unemployment, rising crime rates and political instability.

I live in a western country today and things are fairly normal. But wait until you run into a black person, you will regret .

And in Nigeria, the example of black people wickedness is all over the map. President Buhari only gives money to states that are run by APC----encouraging other party leaders to defect before they get government programs.

Such is shameful about being black!

Ityp: "If PDP fields a northern candidate, they will lose woefully. Either southern + Christian or nothing"

I can't disagree with you, but I want the results of all future elections in Nigeria to be based on the candidates character and not ethnicity or geopolitical zone.

Given mismanagement of Nigeria by APC since 2015, I will be disappointed if APC is allowed to stay in office one minute past May 29,2023. Nigeria is in the brink of total collapse. And God bless if the country makes it that far.

"Ibrahim Gajere of Peoples Democratic, Party (PDP) has been declared winner of the Kajuru Local Government chairmanship "


PDP victories in Kaduna local elections should service as a barometer in what will happen to APC all over Nigeria in 2023 general elections.

Right now, my prediction in 2023 general elections is landslide victory for PDP over APC.
I can't wait!

" CitynewsNG(m): 8a14am
The President of BUA Group and a Kano Indigene, Alhaji Abdulsamad Rabiu has been reported to have gifted the Emir of Kano, Alhaji Aminu Ado Bayero, a 2021 Rolls Royce Car worth 200million naira."

Irresponsible gift !
In kano state, roads are in terrible state. Homeless population has skyrocketed. Schools are in deplorable conditions. Unemployment is 67% of the kano population. Life is hopeless. Billionaire Rabiu could have used N200 million he put in buying a car to solve homeless population problems and still get Publicity he wanted.

People who say being black is ignorance are right. I can see that in Rabiu.

CBN governor Mr. Emefiele needs to resign and be replaced with a competent person. According to many reports, when he took the job in 2014 the rate of Naira to a dollar was 164. Today, Naira is 595 to a dollar. As a school teacher since 2010 and in the job of evaluating people, I would never give Emefiele a passing grade. His performance is below average in my view.

Here is my problem with Emefiele, as a governor of CBN, he has to wait for the world bank to advise Nigeria to put more money in infrastructures before Nigeria economy can rebound. Mr. Emefiele should have known that ahead of world bank and advised the Nigerian government. This raises questions about Emefiele competence. Please resign, sir . You have out lived your usefulness.

“Only eight of every 100 Nigerians who start primary school completes university.” -----Sanusi


No surprise here at all!
8 out of 100 Nigerians who started primary school were able to graduate from college. That means 92 % of Nigerians will not be able to find work because of lack of skills . And it also means that future jobs created in Nigeria will be handled by foreigners. Think about that for a minute, guys.

That should not be news at all. I saw this picture 10 or 20 years ago when I arrived in a western country to study. All Nigerians I met in the college campus were studying economic, marketing and business administration. I was the only one in technology department. Although we had long graduated from college, none would be able to help the younger generation in the area of technology. Very shameful!

I am so glad Emir Sanusi brought up the importance of getting young people to study science and technology because the trend doesn't look good for Nigeria tomorrow.

Nigerian government must stop giving scholarships to older people to study economic, business, marketing and instead send young people to study science and technology. If we fail to educate young people in science and technology, foreigners are going to be taking over Nigeria and run for us.

PDP zoned ticket to Southwest in 1999-----Tonye Barcanista


I strongly disagree!
And where is evidence to support your claim that PDP zoned presidency to Southwest in 1999?

Anybody can make a claim, but not everyone can show evidence to support their claim.

Furthermore, the word "zone " is frightening because I don't know what it means.

Did south/South and all the northern states of Nigeria go to sleep while Southwest voted OBJ into power? That will be zoning!

Zoning is an act of dictatorship or military rule. As I am speaking, 1999 constitution of Nigeria provides no room for zoning. So, there will be no zoning of any office in Nigeria. Any tribe interested in producing the presidency of Nigeria, must go through the process as provided in the 1999 of Nigeria, fullstop.

people just stop talking about zoning because it is irritating!

“It is instructive to note that when Emefiele took office as CBN Governor in 2014 the naira exchanged for N164 to a dollar. Today, in the hands of Emefiele and the APC, the naira has tumbled to near N600 to a dollar, putting the nation’s economy on its knees."

WoW! No surprise here!
Emefiele is Ngozi Iweala. Talk big and nothing to show for. When Ngozi Iweala was Nigeria minister for finance, over 90 million ghosts workers were discovered on federal payroll after she left office by President Buhari minister for finance, Mrs. Kemi.

If Emefiele is fired, and I want him sacked, billion dollars will be discovered in his overseas bank accounts. People from Emefiele home state are never cleaned when it comes to money. You want to see evidence? Let's start with Olisa Metuh, Okorocha and more!

The decline in Naira values during Emefiele tenure is based on the fact that CBN governor is corrupt. Firing him today will jump start Nigerian economy and make Naira competitive again.

I know President Buhari will be called tribalist if fired Emefiele today by the usual suspects. But he should ignore that and get rid of him ASAP. Why was he ever made governor of CBN in the first place?

"will say it again, been a female celebrity in Nigeria is more like an advanced prostitution”


So?
He sounds like this is something new! No, it is not. I don't care which country you go to, acting industry is a prostitution business, period.

Acting industry is full of drugs addicts and prostitutes, Male or female. And if you are not classified as either a drug addict or prostitute, you are going to be kicked out.

So, I write to urge the person reporting that acting is composed of only females and that they are prostitutes, not to believe it. Men are prostitutes as well. Acting industry is not an academic institution. People go into that industry to do all sorts of things.

"While performing the handing over exercise in Bonny, Rivers State, the commanding officer Nigerian Navy Forward Operating Base Bonny, Captain Rufus Taye Oladejo explained that preliminary investigation has revealed that MT Bright Hope was arrested on the 10th of September 2021 along the Bonny waterways laden with about 1,371,256 litres of stolen crude oil and 62,431 litres of illegal refined AGO."

That is just one out of a million times the Nigerian navy has succeeded in stopping oil looters from getting away with their crime.

I wished Nigerians from oils producing states can travel abroad to see how Nigerians, mostly from Ibos and Yorubas are living wealthy with money generated from oil thefts.

I live in a western country, and I saw up to 20 Nigerians buying real estate property costing between $500,000 to $5 million homes and not live in them at all. They live in Nigeria to commit these crimes of stealing oil from Nigeria and selling it abroad. Some of them died without spending a penny from million dollars looted out.

How do you think these Nigerians get this money from?

Fellow Nigerians, the money comes illegal oil shipments from Nigeria. That is why Nigerians in Nigeria are poor. These thieving Nigerians are the first to blame the Nigerian government for mismanaging the country.

In Akwa Ibom state for example, over 2 million barrels of oil are shipped illegally by ibos and Yorubas overseas every month.

That is why ibos and Yorubas don't respect people from oil producing states because they think we are stupid.

I am working with a group of people from Akwa Ibom state to declare Independence for ibibio because ibos and Yorubas are killing us.

"The spokesman for the Northern Elders Forum (NEF), Hakeem Baba-Ahmed has given some conditions for a politician from the South to become the next president.

Speaking on Arise TV on Tuesday, Baba-Ahmed called on Nigerians to see beyond religious and ethnic sentiments during the 2023 general elections."

Are southern Nigerians begging northern Nigerians to help them to produce the next president of Nigeria?

If the answer is yes, it means democracy based on one man, one vote doesn't exist in Nigeria

Under the system of government currently operating in Nigeria, people choose who they want as their president, and not given to them.

I write to call on all southern leaders in Nigeria to condemn anyone who calls for zoning or rotating the presidency of Nigeria.

Losing election at the voting booth brings honor and respect to the loser than winning by begging.

In 1999, OBJ won the presidency by appeasing the northern Nigerians but ended up not achieving anything during his 8 years in office. Same thing happened to Goodluck Jonathan.

If a Southern Nigerian wins 2023 without begging the northern Nigerians, he or she will govern with confidence and get something done for the country than winning because of northern Nigerians help.

" According to Sanusi, people must suffer for things to get right. He said; "


I strongly disagree with Emir Sanusi!
Nigerians have been suffering for the past 60 years . How much longer can people endure the suffering, Mr. Sanusi?

And speaking of Dr. Sanusi, he speaks like another illiterate Muslim man from the northern Nigeria. He knows that president Buhari is not performing. He knows that under president Buhari leadership, over 350,000 Nigerians had died in the hands of Islamic terrorists and another 10 million driven out of their homes , and somehow, he thinks that okay. Totally out of touch statement by Emir Sanusi.

I am so shameful of Emir Sanusi!

Wow! Noor Buhari, last child of president Buhari is fat --not a woman you would consider a remodel for women in the country.

Does she walk out at all?
That is why having parents with good education is important. Had president Buhari was educated, Noor Buhari would have been taught about the importance of staying in shape.

If I was running teens education program , there is no way I would have invited Noor Buhari to come to speak to young girls. She is not staying in good shape. She is too fat.

Please take a look at the bottom picture again.
Ugly bitch indeed!

The attention given to Femi Fani Kayode after he joined APC is sickening. He posed picture of himself and president Buhari standing side by side. All the newspapers in Nigeria had picture of Femi Fani Kayode on their front page. Today the picture of Femi Fani Kayode having lunch with former governor of Benue state is being shared nation wide.

This begs one question: how important is Femi Fani Kayode in Nigerian politics?

I would argue here that Femi Fani Kayode is not political relevant at all. He is not Awolowo. He is not Abiola. He is not OBJ. And he is not Akintola

Awolowo, Abiola, OBJ and Akintola are leaders who can guarantee you winning all states in the south west. That is what I call political relevant.

But he is a job seeker. He is broke. He joined APC because he sees opportunities to advantage of weak Buhari administration to get in and steal money.

In the next few days, I am told by multiple sources that Femi Fani Kayode is going to be appointed managing director of a government agency. That will open the doors for him to steal like a bank robber.

Who wants to bet on this?

"The social media influencer also noted that most of the messages she gets on her Instagram page are pleas for help. "

True statement!
But don't blame men for begging you for help because it is caused by the way she has advertised herself to be. If she wants a man, she should outright say so and not put herself out there as rich because people are going to look to get her for money.

I think she is looking for a man, but got disappointed because men who showed up came for money.

Governor Akeredolu: “ Any party that picks any candidate from the North will have to face all Southern governors, because they will not support."

I strongly disagree!
Zoning is not a democracy. It is a military dictatorship.

What would northern Nigerians voters do on election day? Go to sleep so that someone from the south will win the presidency? Nonsense!

All southern Nigerians should have learned a lesson from OBJ and Goodluck Jonathan administrations. These two men are from the southern Nigeria . When OBJ won elections in 1999 and 2003, he cozy up to northern Nigeria in key appointments and projects distribution. Same thing happened when Goodluck Jonathan was in power.

I have met with hundreds of people from the southern Nigeria and none has good things to say about OBJ and Goodluck Jonathan administrations.

So, let's stop the so called southern president and appeal to the best person to run for the presidency and win the election. Zoning is a dictatorship and a fraud. It hasn't worked in the past and it will not work in 2023 and beyond.

"Professor Abass Olajire, a senior lecturer at the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, LAUTECH, Ogbomoso, on Friday slumped and died in a mosque while observing Solatul Jum’at, Siggy reports."

Cause of death here in my opinion is high blood pressure. High blood pressure is a silent killer. Especially in Nigeria where temperatures stay high all year and most homes don't have electricity supply to power condition on.

May his soul rest in peace and comfort to his loved ones left behind as well.

"Police arrest welder who specializes in manufacturing and selling locall made guns "

Biggest mistake by police for arresting this gun manufacturer. He should been encouraged to make the guns and sell them to government instead marketing them to public. That would have created jobs opportunities for locals and saved government money from importing guns overseas.

Nigeria needs local ideas to defeat poverty and to inspire people to do good things in our communities. That is what this gun manufacturer represents.

So, i write to urge nigerian government officials to release this young talent ASAP. Sign contracts with this gun manufacturer to make more guns and sell them to government agencies---a strategy that will free Nigeria from being 100% dependent on foreign imports.

Sad to know that Olisa mouth is still alive. I consider him RIP. He is the most shameless person I have ever come across. In 2015 when president Goodluck Jonathan was running for re-election, Mr. Metuh got $400 million out of $2.1b disbursed to fellow PDP members to get president Jonathan re-elected. After president Goodluck Jonathan lost his re-election and Buhari administration prosecuted people to get stolen money returned to federal government, Mr. Metuh checked into the hospital under false pretenses he was sick .

He was not sick. He checked into the hospital and acted sick to avoid paying back the money. In many court testimonies, he admitted taking $400 million from Goodluck Jonathan campaign. He also told the court that he used the stolen funds to buy guns to stock up his guns shop.

And on his court appearances, he would show up in crutches to make him look like he was near dead, and he wasn't. All these criminal acting behavior was meant to buy time, bribe judges, get off the hook, and he succeeded.

Today, olisa Metuh does not walk in crutches. He walks normal. He smiles- unlike when he was in prison.

Return Olisa Metuh to jail ASAP. He is a criminal!

Pastor Ighodalo: “We must reject anyone who has a proven track record of incompetence, corruption, greed, wickedness and avarice to hold any position of influence in the country.”

I disagree with pastor Ighodalo suggestion as stated above.

I would have called for free and fair elections if i were him instead of listening the qualifications of the next president.

I think free and fair elections are more important than qualifications of the next president of Nigeria. Also,I think free and fair elections will always produce competence president. Nigerian people are smart if they are allowed to make the choice.

Incompetence leadership is a product of zoning. That is how Nigerians got president Buhari. President Buhari---who is no good and incompetent leader.

"I am struggling with weak election "

Please go to see Urologist nearest to you . Urologist is an expert in weak erection. When you meet Urologist, tell him or her to put needle in your penis. The procedure is called laser surgery. But be warned that you may not be able to get a woman pregnant after the surgery because sperm will not be able to come out from your penis. However, your erection will last longer.

President Buhari " Nigeria’s large population and infrastructural deficit, the country needed all the revenue she could get from oil, a mainstay of the economy, “and Saudi Arabia has been very kind to us, making sacrifice by reducing production to accommodate us a number of times.”

Real dumb statement by president Buhari!

SAUDI Arabia unlike Nigeria will never give up its strategic interest in favor of Nigeria or any country on earth.

SAUDI Arabia does not help Nigeria by cutting its own oil production, it helps SAUDI Arabia more than Nigeria.

President Buhari shows ignorance and lack of education by claiming that cutting oil production by SAUDI Arabia helps Nigeria. It doesn't!

President Buhari needs to keep his mouth shut because he is embarrassing himself by saying what he just said

Picture speaks louder than voice---describes the dirtiest conditions in Ogun state and why citizens are concerned. There is going to be outbreak of diseases in Ogun state very soon if those wastes are not removed and contained ASAP

Who is the governor of ogun state?
Those pictures of waste all over the streets tell me Ogun state has no leader or governor.

My advice

I advice citizens of Ogun state to begin state wide protest over Non disposal of those wastes as soon as possible. Protest is the most powerful weapon citizens have to get things done in a democracy. Short of state wide protest, those trash are not going to be taken care of.

Nigeria is a black run country and that means solutions to problems are hard to come by!

"Mgreat(m):
So what happen to the remaining L.G.A. ?
They are not part of the state?"

I am asking the same question!
Nothing takes place in Nigeria without discrimination. I am not living in Nigeria, I live in a western country . During covid19, the government sent out relief checks to rich and poor people . No one was left out . That strategy made sure economy kept working for everybody.

That would never have happened in Nigeria.

Anyway, Nigerian government failure to adopt what helps other countries to succeed is the cause of wide spread poverty and rising crime rates in the country. I pray for those left out of the little subsidy program.

Happy birthday to you, Samuel Peter!
Long life and prosperity.
You and your Achievement will never be forgotten.

Love to see you open sports training school in Akwa Ibom state.
Again, God bless you and your family!

"He made no mention of Conde’s whereabouts and it was not immediately known where the 83-year-old leader was after Sunday’s attack. Conde’s popularity has plummeted since he sought a third term last year, saying that term limits did not apply to him."

God bless the coup leader!
Why this doesn't take place in Nigeria today, not tomorrow ? No visible progress has been made in Nigeria since gaining independence in 1960 from Great Britain. 350 thousands Nigerians have been killed and 10 million people driven out of their homes since Buhari assumed office iin 2015, according to United nations

For God sake, What is military in Nigeria waiting for? Just go there and punch him in the face, period.

"The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, on Sunday announced the deployment of five state Resident Electoral Commissioners (RECs)."


Sham deployment!
It is like moving furniture around your living room--- nothing really has changed. Gearing up to steal election from the rightful elected winners in 2023. I don't buy this latest move by INEC.

And Which country in the world fill up election commissioners with universities teachers?

University teachers belong to classrooms, not politics. I wished leaders in the Nigerian universities would ban their staff from being used in this way. It is outrageous that people who spent years studying to help others succeed in life would allow themselves to be bought for money.

Furthermore, I am really ashamed of what educated people in Nigeria have become these days.

Report " Nigeria records N1.87tn trade deficit in the first half of 2921"


What does this incompetence government expect? We are talking about Nigeria which imports 100% of local needs and exports nothing.

Does Nigerian government expect anything else? I want to know what export products of Nigeria consist of. I bet you oil is the only item on the export list .

September 1, 2021, Punch newspaper carried an article titled "why US, EU countries reject foods exported from Nigeria", described how Nigerian farmers were upset over their agricultural products being rejected by US and EU countries.

That is significant because it shows that Nigeria only source of income is oil money. These countries don't want food products directly linked to boko Haran. And I applaud them for their stance. Also, I want to ask states in the South/South geopolitical zone to boycott all foods produced in the northern nigeria. Northern Nigeria is too toxic to trust what they make.

So, I call on oil producing states in Nigeria to come together to demand total control of all money generated from oil sales. That is the only way to earn respect not given to oils producing states by the Nigerian government.
