I think the outgoing IGP, Abubakar, will be remembered for reducing to appreciable level extortion by policemen on the nations highway via roadblock. That to me is the highpoint of his tenure as IGP.

Crush the terror war first !, that should be the pre requisite for the reconstruction plan.

What is the point of building in months and years, what will be blown away in seconds and minutes ?

Obiagelli: i don't even know if it will be better for her to start or finish the relay.

Last but one (3rd) is the best.

Pure gimmick.


Where in this article shows Ribadu's word or declaration?

Ribadu is in APC.

How can someone be a student of election for 42 years , and come up with this analsyis.
I assume he has o year of experience in Nigeria's election.
2015 elections will be sharply divided along religious and ethnic lines in most cases.

It is 6 months + to election, but one thing that i am sure of is that there can ne no landslide win for any one who will eventually win.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, GEJ will lose in a free and fair elections.

My reasons

(1)There would be only 1 strong northern candidate in 2015, unlike 2011 where we had 3 strong northern candidates (buhari, shekarau, ribadu)

(2) There is a stronger platform for national opposition through the APC, which still controls at least 14 states compared with 2011

(3) Virtually, all the northern PDP governors are not seeking re-election, and some might still cause rancour in PDP primaries and even defect e.g jigawa state.

(4) GEJ will win with landslide in Rivers, Imo and edo, but the volume of votes will decrease considerably compared with 2011 election.

(5) GEJ will most likely fail to get 25% of votes in like 12 of the 19 northern states,



(6) GEJ will struggle in the SW, he will be so lucky, if he gets 40% of the SW votes versus 58% of SW votes he got in 2011.




Where is the landslide coming from?

These are the new set of PDP thugs some people are clamoring for in the SW .

He is not a governor, he is acting like this , what will he do if he becomes a governor?

I thought there was a referendum, and it was the wish of the people, at least those who came out to vote.

The new council creation is now a law ,and not a proclamation, Fayose can not come in and disband it,except if he wants to be impeached.


In my personal opinion, i don't think there are needs for more local councils in an homogeneous state like ekiti state, but who am i to know more than the people of ekiti who spoke with their votes in the referendum. Lagos state in 2004 or thereabouts also created 37 additional councils, and i feel it was beneficial in that case.

0rlando0woh: Do not bring other tribes into your bull shît, talk about Yorubas specifically, yes Yorubas are not just filthy but also irredemable hypocrites!
As long as Nigeria remains, Lagos is no man's land, get that into your skull! If you aren't happy with the status quo, call for secession or shut up!
What are you doing about your people being butchered relentlessly in the north?

Keep shut !, and stop whining.

I wont play politics with the lives of people killed no matter the tribe, i will rather implore you to stop making statements that can lead to death of more . History has a way of repeating itself.

banega: Wow Igbos!! plenty oh 15 million in the north ? Plus 20 million in south west, 10 million in the south south and 40 million in the south east!! = = = 85 million people!! Enormous population •

Comot dia, who dash you? Maybe 30 million plus.

kettykin: This is really Bunkum and inferior thinking, The Jews have 99% of their wealth outside Isreal but are 99% ready for war with their Neighbours or any aggressor, they Jews have lost all that they had before and about 6Million of their people buts still are ever prepared to go to war over 1 single jew that is killed by their enemy. if the Jews have the same mindset and are not considered idiots why then are igbos who arent so war crazy considered idiotic in your thinking

Jewish biafran.

I guess it is all brawn and little or no brain for most of you.

0rlando0woh: I am home.
We value the lives of our fellow Igbos, that is why they are being asked to come back. What are you Yorubas doing about your brothers, Pastors and Chiefs being murdered left, right and center in the north?
You muppets have a very faulty mentality of worrying about other people's problems while leaving yours completely unattended to.

You sure about the boldened ? i am sure you dont believe yourself.

You keep on inspiring hate from other tribes, castigating those of differing religion, calling some other tribes filthy, there land no mans land, and spew many other bla bla.bla.... play ethno -religious driven politics and you think there wont be a day of reckoning ??
You call yorubas filthy, yet over 30% of your people means of livelihood is in yorubaland.

If you are at home, good luck!, get ready for over 15 million ibo people that will have to come and meet you home !.

Good luck with your biafra.

0rlando0woh: Shut up filthy Yoruba!
Let Igbos worry about themselves, you have a lot on your hand, attend to them!

Dont transfer aggression on me. Your brothers MASSOB is the one calling you home. Go home now.

When i see people beating the drum of war, and i find out they are ibos, i really pity them.

How can you have over 50% of your people outside iboland, yet be beating the drum of war? That is high level idiocy.

barackodam: Nah!!!!!


Many of us didn't even know when the thread was created

You are not getting it !


I can get the list of all nairaland members currently on nairaland from the frontpage, idont have to go to any particular thread.

The way guys are commenting with "waoh", "thanks", bla bla bla is annoying,


The op copied the list of currently viewing nairaland members as at the time of "her" post, she has got no psychic powers as someone even posited.



Can this thread be closed down, i hate the unnecessary mentions.

Emir of Ilorin is now purely ceremonial, this is no longer 19th century, A kwara state governor can install an Afonja of ilorin, and gradually make the emir more irrelevant, he can even be deposed by the state governor.... Much ado about nothing

I believe Ribadu has what it takes to win the gubernatorial election for APC in 3 months time.

atlwireles: El-Rufia has lost 3 children in 3-4 years. Time has come for this man to ask his God what is going on. Two daughters and now a son. This is a problem, he needs to search his soul.

In your heart, you are saying "serves him right"..

Abi i lie?

I hope you dont find yourself in this kind of predicament sooner or later in the future, and people start making similar insinuations about you.

A whole lot of the RIP people are commenting here is actually "serves him right" if there is a way we could check their hearts. SMH

It is a sad one for the family, i hope they recover quickly from the grieve.

For reasons best known to the mods, Nigerians made us proud winning Gold and silver at the commonwealth games , but the good news have failed to make the frontpage 2 days after. Is it because it was won in weightlifting ?. Supermods your attention is needed to move the thread with the link below to the frontpage https://www.nairaland.com/1831754/nigerias-adesanmi-wins-63kg-lifting

EasternLeopard: The day Buhari did this was the day he sealed his fate as a true anti-corruption crusader.

Jerry Rawlings killed everyone including his tribe men.


Nature has a way of purnishing those who are double standard in their dealings.

With all due respect to Ojukwu my hero, he kicked against Adaka Boro Nigerdelta republic only to lead a Biafra republic.

People like Awo Zik Balewa Sarduna etc paid dearly for their double standards in politics.

One advice I have for everyone is

Nature has a way of punishing those who practice double standards.

But the same Buhari launched the aborted move to smuggle in fleeing Umaru Dikko inside a crate.
Was Umaru Dikko not of Hausa/Fulani stock?

dhsfbi: @Germaning and Emiye i will like to know your surname and know who you really are because it is common to poor and hungry idiot to check dictionary for hours before they can post anything and claim English Guru. Both Man above are well known more than your entire generation

Keep your dense mouth shut !, my point is not about his vocabulary or whatever nonsense, it was about his incoherence and inability to convince any sane person he could do a better job than the incumbent.

Germannig: An orator in Yoruba language, yes. In English, he is a ''tabula rasa''.

I know you are trolling, so i will leave you to enjoy your night in the clownish trolling

Germannig: The man Omisore is a semi-illiterate. But have you listened to Aregbesola? I have and he is the epitome of deep illiteracy. Patience Jonathan can be considered super intelligent where those two are.

You must have listened to a different Aregbesola, forget about the scruffy looks, he is an orator.

It will be a great dis service to let this man govern the state of Osun, I listened to him speak on a political programme with channels tv yesterday , and to say i was disgusted is an understatement, i could see he had rehearsed all he had to said, he was sounding incoherent, grumpy and .....

Channels TV is currently showing Ngige in APC anambra conference, asking members to brace up and stay strong.

tonychristopher: you are not talking to dear

I really get your drift but what I don't get is the basic different between PDP and APC apart from nomenclature.

they are both corrupt

I am to indulge you with the usual "they are both corrupt", Then it is better to checkmate a thief with an opposing thief, that way stealing is reduced.

Omisore is 56 years old, some of those clerics might be younger.

Rexyl: it is like you are talking from political point of view.
All I know is buses were delivered to the States with the aim of subsidizing transport costs of people in the State. The existence of the buses followed certain initiative. we shouldn't have been ignorant of that.

You failed to answer my question, but was hammering about color.

If i give you a yellow mercedez benz SUV, and 6 months down the line, i see you driving a red mercedez benz SUV, there is a great possibility it was the yellow vehicle i gave you, that you decided to repaint, but not in the case when you are driving a red toyota SUV

Rexyl: how would you know since all the buses are now painted the same color and wear the same name ... Ajumose

The painting of a bus does not wipe out the number of seats of a bus.

The painting of a bus does not clean up the maker of the bus,(daewoo? or innoson? or mitsubishi? leyland?)

How many buses were supposed to be given to each state?

I have heard such tales like, afterall the buses were given to the state govt free of charge by some roadside opposition elemennts, and you are saying the same thing.

Rexyl: No Government should feel discredited if it has done the appropriate thing. May be Oyo State has done the appropriate thing by maintaining those FG shuttle buses and buying more in addition. What I know is that those buses are being used to transport people at reduced prices.

From me I would praise the FG for the initiative and thank the State for making it a reality.

You have not answered the question. How many seater were the supposed subsidy buses vs the current Ajumose shuttle.?
What brands/maker were the subsidy buses vs the Ajumose shuttle?

Mosquitoes are attracted to sweat.
