Sydney17:
because jonathan is not an igbo man! the mases voted for him becuase he has no issue with any ethnic group

In the bigger picture, the north sees Gej as an igbo man.

when i hear that GEJ didn't do a thing in his constituency or state I ask myself:
IS IT STATED IN THE CONSTITUTION THAT THE FUNCTION OF THE PRESIDENT IS TO CARRY OUT ROAD AND COMMUNITY PROJECTS?
THEN I REALISE THAT WITH ALL THE CORRUPT PRACTICES OF HIS ADMINISTRATION; HE OUGHT TO HAVE DONE SO.

How did GOODLUCK JONATHAN get voted in if indeed it is all about the number games?
Yes, the number is also major factor; but if an igbo man with the right and proper mandate & bright ideas vies for presidency I'm positive he would be voted in.

Awaiting NCAN members.

Amaechi hasn't learnt to separate politics from governance.

Who be that Anita Joseph ?
She ought to know she is doing more harm than good trying to pacify those people. It even seems to me that she is enjoying the mockery.
What does she mean by " the picture will be taken down only if uche ogbodo says so" or maybe it is just me.

The Ogun State governor, Ibikunle
Amosun, has disowned an audio
conversation circulating on social
media purporting to be a phone
call between him and his Borno
State counterpart, Kashim
Shettima.

The 20-minute audio is alleged to
contain the voices of the two
governors, as they spoke on the
current agitation for Biafra.
Both governors allegedly said that
different sections of the country,
including the South East and South
West, and north, should be free to
go their separate ways.

But in his reaction Monday, Mr.
Amosun denied the conversation
happened.

A statement by the Ogun State
Commissioner for Information and
Strategy, Dayo Adeneye, said the
conversation was meant to create
confusion.

“The voice in the forgery which
they paraded as that of Governor
Amosun is not that of His
Excellency and a simple search on
the internet for any speech by him,
would convince those who are not
familiar with his voice that the
producers of the audio recording
did a poor and unintelligent
imitation,” the statement said.

“The peddlers of such falsehood
appear to have a wild scheme
which appears to be part of what
may be turning out to be the wider
script, by some unpatriotic
elements, aimed at further causing
divisions in Nigeria.

“It is meant to feed into, as well as
further exacerbate the already
highly combustible wave of
agitation in the land. This evil plot
will not work. Indeed this is not
the first time some unpatriotic and
vile individuals would spread
falsehood about the person of
Governor Amosun,” the statement
reads.

The release emphasised that Mr. Amosun was
committed to the peaceful co-existence of all
groups in Nigeria and will not engage in
conversations that would threaten the peace
and unity of Nigeria.

The Bayelsa government's false claims to
transparency were punctured at the
weekend following the federal
government’s publication of the Paris
Club refunds it disbursed to states in
December 2016. While the Dickson-led
administration had cooked up figures on
a monthly basis, the federal
government’s publication showed it
received N24.89 billion, although it had
declared N14.5bn. That means the
government did not declare about
N10.39bn to the people.

government’s publication showed it received
N24.89 billion, although it had declared N14.5bn.
That means the government did not declare about
N10.39bn to the people.
The Bayelsa government figures have often had
similar wide margins when compared with other
sources. For instance, in 2015 figures of receipts
by the state government stood at N105 bn
whereas Dickson claimed to have received only
N87 billion in 2015.
Similarly, FAAC figures for 2016 indicated a
disbursement of N99 billion but the state
government owed its workforce for six months in
2016.
In a similar pattern, the Dickson government
under-declared its share of the first tranche of the
N516.38 billion from the Paris Club debt refund, a
development that clearly illustrates the lack of
transparency of the current state government.
The details of first tranche repayments of the
refunds to the 36 states of the federation and the
Federal Capital Territory declared by the Federal
Ministry of Finance at the weekend again highlights
the inventiveness of the government.
The published numbers clearly showed that
Bayelsa got the sum of N24.89 billion as its
allocation in the refund project.
The figures accruing to other states are:
Rivers, N34.92bn,
Delta, N27.6bn,
Akwa Ibom, N25.98bn, and
Kano, N21.7bn.
Salisu Dambatta, the Director of Information in the
Ministry of Finance, had disclosed in a statement
that the payments were made following the
approval of President Muhammadu Buhari on
November 12, 2016.
On the contrary, the Bayelsa State government had
declared in December 2016 that it got N14.5bn as
its share of the debt reimbursement.
Maxwell Ebibai, the Commissioner for Finance,
announced the figure on December 8 while fielding
questions from journalists at the premises of
the Bayelsa State House of Assembly.
Ebibai spoke with the reporters shortly after Mr.
Dickson presented the 2017 Appropriation Bill of
N221.280billion to the lawmakers for consideration
and passage.
As at December 2016 when the Federal
Government released the first tranche of the
refund, the Dickson administration was heavily
indebted to civil servants. It was paying half
salaries to the workers, with pensioners and local
government council workers battling to survive
nine and 12 months in unpaid pensions and wages,
respectively.
The government still owed six months’ salary
arrears in 2016.
Ebibai had stated that the state government would
use 50 percent of the N14.5b to pay workers'
salaries and pensions as directed by the Federal
Government.
"It is the instruction from the Governor (Seriake
Dickson) to announce to the workers of the state,
that we have just received N14.5bn as part of a
refund from the Paris Club loan deductions,” he
said, adding that Mr. Dickson specifically wants all
workers to be aware of what was received.
It turns out that declaration was a whopping
N10.39bn distance from the truth.
"However, in furtherance of that also, the governor
has highlighted that 50 percent of that amount
would be used to pay salaries and pensions of our
workers," he said, meaning that about N7bn, less
than was not being declared, would be used in that
process.
What is worse is that it was subsequently gathered
that despite announcing receipt of 14.5bn, the state
government did not remit the local government
councils' share.
It was not until March 2017 that it announced it had
directed the release of N1.3bn from the figure for
the councils after it became apparent that states
which diverted the funds would not benefit from the
second tranche.
The directive to release the dues to the local
councils only came after the Federal Government
had announced its plan to release the second
tranche to the states and the FCT.

Sergeant Iboko, who killed one of the four
armed robbers in the attack, suffered
severe gunshot injuries and died the next
day in a police clinic in Owerri after he
was allegedly rejected at the Federal
Medical Centre, Owerri.
The Owerri branch of Nigerian Bar Association on
Monday said that it would sue the Nigeria Police
Force and Zenith Bank for allegedly abandoning the
family of heroic Police Sergeant, Chukwudi Iboko,
who died during the February 22, 2017, robbery
which took place at the Wetheral Road branch of
Zenith bank in Owerri, the Imo State capital.
Sergeant Iboko, who killed one of the four armed
robbers in the attack, suffered severe gunshot
injuries and died the next day in a police clinic in
Owerri after he was allegedly rejected at the
Federal Medical Centre, Owerri.
He had been praised by many Nigerians, leading to
a massive campaign for raising fund by the Punch
Newspaper and some social media activists for his
family’s upkeep and to put his children back to
school.
Irked by the victim’s wife’s claim that both the
Police and the Bank had abandoned her and her
seven surviving children which was published in
Sunday PUNCH, the Owerri Branch NBA Chairman,
Lawrence Nwakaeti, said that it was a wicked act
for the police and the Bank to have abandoned and
neglected Iboko’s family.
The legal practitioner said that his branch would
have no option than to sue the police and bank to
compel them to take full responsibility of the family
of an officer who died in an active service while
protecting the assets and customers of the Zenith
Bank on the day of the incident.
Nwakeati said, “It is the height of wickedness for
the gallant policeman who died in the course of
duty to be abandoned by the police which he
served most meritoriously and gave his life as a
result and the bank for whom he paid the Supreme
price, to abandon the young family he left behind.
“We demand that both the Nigeria Police Force as
well as Zenith should take urgent steps towards
the upkeep of the family left behind by the
deceased police officer”.
The Chairman said that the children of the hero
police officer who had dropped out of school must
be assisted by the police and the bank to return to
and to assist his young widow.
“The children he left behind who have dropped out
of school must be assisted to return back to
school. Their dreams must not be allowed to die
just like that. It’s unfair. What message are we
sending to our men and women in uniform who
daily put their lives on the line so that others may
be safe?
“We owe those they leave behind a duty of care in
the event of the unthinkable happening to them”
According to him, “We hereby demand that the
family of this fallen officer be made to feel less the
death of their breadwinner”.
Nwakaeti said that In the event that nothing
happens in spite of the demand, the Association
shall take up the issue and ensure that Justice
comes the way of the grieving family.

Who gave birth to this dunce for Christ sake? Make up and filters cant conceal your stupidity.

In NIGERIA something happens, there is reaction, then counter reactions, this leads to public reactions leading to a chain reaction until another reaction comes up to a different story.
Fayose has just stated the obvious, our leaders need to be proactive. The herdsmen crises didnt start today, we just allowed it to fester and degenerate to this level.

Wike needs to sit down and get some sense.
Rivers is by far an unsafe state, with high proliferation of crime, cultism, militancy.
Wike should focus on governance and stop playing games. HIGH EMPLOYMENT RATE =LOW CRIME RATE.
