tomakint: ....wao fantastic and Lagos is owing $3 billion? Oshogbo is looking like a glorified jungle compared to Enugu town! Teachers in Ekiti (under Fayemi), Osun, Oyo are owed salaries by the State government, basic amenities still lacking in these States....indeed, they are clueful!
Misgovernance of the FG led government is like leprosy that is infecting the states. 22 states in the Federation could not pay salaries.
Crude oil theft has risen to an alarming 40% Thieves and big idiiots have now been allocated contracts in billions of naira to protect pipelines. Trillions of Naira are used to pay fraudulent subsidies annually, that same amount can build 5 large scale refineries in less than 3 years.
The leprous hands will be cut off on Feb 14, 2015.
They are true patriots that have chosen to stand up against "cluelessness" and high level corruption in governance, while submerging primordial religious and ethnic sentiments in the water of failure.
The op's observations were my exact thoughts. Obviously Nairaland moderators have not been able to put their personal interest in check in projecting news to the frontpage. How dare you put such kind of news with a faceless voice on the frontpage and credit it to the army.....
Such a weighty assertion must have at the very least an iconic face to it. I demand the news be removed from frontpage.
SMH for GEJ....... His assumed SE base getting eroded hah...... If only he fixed at least one of 1. power 2. Refineries to stop importation of refined products.
dhidden: Yes, the Israelites called unto God and he delivered them from Pharoah. Did the Israelites also tell God HOW to deliver them and WHO to use? Who chose to take them through the RED SEA? Was it not GOD? Would they have chosen to cross the RED SEA if the choice was left to them? God chose the MOST UNLIKELY ROUTE - THE RED SEA. It was a MIRACLE. GOD will yet give Nigeria a Miraculous Change using the MOST UNLIKELY person in your equation NOW. You search your heart, WHO IS THAT?
You are on God's side yet you advise me to leave God out on this forum? Is it possible? Just like you breathe APC, I breathe GOD. This is why I said Osinbajo (like you just advised me) ALSO left GOD out in his decision to take this giant stride. Overzealous pastors or even some God followers run before they are sent just like Saul/Paul killing believers thinking he was helping God, just like BOKO HARAM BOYS who think they are helping ALLAH. Hahaha, some similarity there! You don't want God in these discussions, what kind of change are you looking for? A change by God or Man? Herein lies Nigeria's problem. You lack understanding of the time we are in God's plan for the nation. Peace.
doctokwus: In as much as I feel some of these priests are double faced,its instructive to note that father Mbaka cud go against d often accepted belief dat d Ibos wud vote enmasse for GEJ no matter his failings and scam of d ibo nation. It takes a man of conviction to go against d tide.His sermon may not win buhari the east,let's b clear about that,but it wud definitely percolate and maybe,just maybe sway d non sycophants and non brain washed segments of d the Igbo nation to think twice when they enter d polling booth that day.
True !, it will also keep a lot more seated at home and watch from the sidelines.
He added that there was no reason behind the state being the second most indebted state after Lagos since the Ahmed Makarfi-led administration liquidated all debts in 2006 before leaving office in 2007.
pak: Why do people think others are having a blasts once they post 'smiling' pics
I once took a short trip with a lady I was dating and we fought so much I still get traumatised thinking about the trip but guess what ? she took so many pix, it was as though we were in heaven !!!
People so much fall in to the trap of "make believe". I doubt i can fall in to such, although we are all human, and have a tendency to believe an image created. Perception is not always reality, though for many, especially ladies, perception is reality.
