@ shotster50:
The president paying attention to what is happening to his facebook page is like opening his office for everyone (no reservation) to come in talk with him.

Here is an example, some weeks ago, Sarah Palin endorsed a candidate many "tea party" base did not support - her fans page on Facebook was flooded with negative comments. Remember that Jonathan's ascension to Presidency was driven by this grass root efforts (mostly online and few street protest match).

Its a good development. If well managed he can as well become the Nigeria Political figure with the largest following online - don't underestimate the power of numbers.

ChinenyeN:
Nri child, the ONLY option is that "better alternative", because trust me, the day people like you start advocating and initiating some foolish "pan-Igbo" kingship institution is the day that various Igbo groups will turn and walk away from this loose affiliation. One-Igbo nonsense. Shine your eyes and see that such a thing cannot (and simply will not) work with/for us.
@ ChinenyeN:
"Ibu onye igbo?" - Am just asking. I expect you should give reasons why you oppose, and not just repeating "it won't work".

As ezeagu stated, the parliament idea is better.

Its very important they verify his claims. But now that is not going to be in his regular habitat - he may not sustain long.
Politics › 70 Years Without Eating - Starving Yogi by egift(op): 7:42pm On May 15, 2010
An 83-year-old Indian holy man who says he has spent seven decades without food or water has astounded a team of military doctors who studied him during a two-week observation period.

Prahlad Jani spent a fortnight in a hospital in the western India state of Gujarat under constant surveillance from a team of 30 medics equipped with cameras and closed circuit television.

During the period, he neither ate nor drank and did not go to the toilet.

“We still do not know how he survives,” neurologist Sudhir Shah told reporters after the end of the experiment. “It is still a mystery what kind of phenomenon this is.”

mcdokwe:
They sure did, but  some evil seeds were sown in the process and today we talk about a northern presido, a southern presido instead of a president who oversees Nigeria ,for Nigerians because he is a NIGERIAN
If there is anyone sowing a very bad seed here, its you (note I will not insult you, ok). But this thread would have had a lot of substance if you started by telling us some of these "evil seeds".

You are not only insulting these great men who sacrificed a lot for this country - but you also spit at those of us who hold them at a very high esteem.

So you can start by - telling us "some evil seeds" they sowed or tender an apology for the insult you have directed towards these men.

Sorry I never meant it that way. I only want to know if he was trying to access a result. I could access it and paste the results for him or something.

@bug24 Please don't complicate issue here oooo shocked
Apology accepted. I finished 2006. Read Computer Science. Specialized as a Web Developer.

I have had to help a lot of people as they had challenges accessing their results. Jamb should just put things together in expectation of the usual heavy traffic.

I really love the fact that results are released faster now than what I had in my time.
Webmasters › Re: Problems With The JAMB Website? by egift(op): 9:23am On Apr 27, 2010
To keep having this problem is not acceptable at all. They should have expected these traffic. Moreover, the traffic they get in the first week of releasing their result is still lower than most search sites get on a regular bases. I hope they do something about it.
Webmasters › Problems With The JAMB Website? by egift(op): 11:06am On Apr 26, 2010
It is sad to see the JAMB website not meeting expectations at all. They seems to be having these problems all the time. Am sure I may not be the only making these observations.

From my point of observation, here are few:
- Difficult to load (this cannot be file size - because most of the time it doesn't look big)
- Unavailable (I hear some people tell you its at night it works - they be witch?)
- Too many names (jambonline.org - jambng.com - jamb.org.ng - jambutme.com - jamb.biz) these can cause confusion.

Jamb and those in charge of their web portal needs to sit up. Am not a JAMBite but as a webmaster I find it appalling. Most of the problems are very easy to fix.

Nuzo (419), he has finally been arrested in China.

I knew from day one that the b-stard is up to no good.
Well, let us pray for him.
I wonder if this is how you guys are in reality. How can you make statements you know nothing about.

Anyway, I salute Nuzo for his decision to make real efforts in driving home his points. Unlike many N'landers who stay here 24/7 in a battle of last-to-post.

Kalamaya:
Gusua is only creating uncertainty for the Nigeria economy,he is a presidential adviser and the way he have been threatening the new ministers on how they should make policies citing some treat to national security issues is also alarming too,he should advise is boss the acting president and stop creating another office of the AG under the name of a senior security adviser.in my opinion.
See trouble! Is his approach different from Sanusi's way of operations.

Is it not the sanusi that
- Does all the possible press conferences
- Releases names of debtors on TV/Newspapers
- Lambaste Nigerian Banks from London
- etc.

Perhaps its better to speak to him in his language. I pray he does what is best - because it affects us all. Moreover its our economy - we have no other.

You make it look like Jonathan contest for presidency or maybe he made Yar'Adua sick, took him to Saudi, refuse him to appear in public for eternity.

My guy na God do am for him. The destruction of Jonathan will start the day he starts boosting he is self made.

If he depends on God, am sure he will do more. Its that simple.

I have long stopped this Sanusi issue. Let him do all he wants. Another will come and tell us the earth will quake.

One of the problem that is holding Nigeria down is Leadership. Our leaders think the only way to be relevant is to rubbish the previous guy - then whatever he does now becomes the standards.

The only problem I have with Sanusi is the manner he carried out his actions. People lost confidence in the market/economy when he kept pressing the alarm button. I hope he amends.

Politics › Nigeria Is Broke - Tukur by egift(op): 9:13am On Apr 19, 2010
The Chairman of the Revenue Mobilization, Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC), Engr Mahmud Tukur, has raised the alarm that the nation’s reserve has gone dangerously low to the point that if drastic measures were not taken immediately to stem the tide, the 2010 budget would be a stillbirth, dead on arrival.

Speaking with Daily Sun, he blamed the situation on the government’s decision to place its commitment to Joint Venture Partners through its Joint Venture Cashcalls (JVC) over the interest of the nation. According to him, payment for JVC has wiped out the entire $20.1billion in the excess crude (oil revenue) and slashed the excess domestic (non-oil revenue) from N322billion to N1.47billion all within one year, January to December 2009.

Tukur, who was at one-time Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Petroleum, also said that the revenue formula currently in use, was illegal.
The RMAFC boss, while explaining why the nation was having problem in the energy sector, also dropped a bombshell that the gas needed to power the thermal stations have been sold for 20 years and the little left, the multinationals consider it more economical to be flared.
