Nice one but where is Buhari


Enough of all this distraction just to keep us busy till October 1st

Yep, where is the president?!

OMG! Children this country, smh.

igbeke:
You got that part right.
I also want us to stop seeing this issue as that of Igbos alone. We should use this opportunity to fight for equal right and justice for all if we must remain together. Come to think of it, if the North starts their hooliganism today, it wouldn't affect only Igbo but every Southerners living among them. If there is fairness to all, no one will complain. Look at the issue of the order of arrest El Rufai issued. No one has been arrested. The guys even went as far as daring the police force. Do you think the same thing would have happened were it south here?

Well said. There is a wider issue at stake here. The nepotism and unfairness being promoted by this govt in particular needs to stop. Buhari is not the president of Northern Nigeria but of Nigeria.

Who is funnying with you? because am laffing abi

This my friend is the perfect place to make them see a difference on their stupid perception about the tribes they insult

??

I rest my case. It's your cup of tea.
cheers

mubar:
No one is holding the Nigeria to ransom. How
about the northerners who are controlling over
85% of the Oil blocs in the east. How have you
benefited from the so called "Born to Rule"
governance of the northerners. We don't want
the norterners style of ruling anymore, its always
problematic. The Afonjas too are affected in
anyway, even if they are not consistent. Quit
supporing them.
And for all the youth residing in this country, I
had thought we should've come together to fight
for our rightd as youths. We should all open our
eyes and see that the governement don't care
about us. They only need us for war, because of
their selfish interest nothing more.
The Hydrocarbon potentials of Nigeria is in S south mostly only some part Anambra basin we still exploring which in the recent studies shows that gas is more of oil geologically take note not in South East,
For ur call to the youths to be one united OK I go with you and is what we dream to see Guy

Majority of their population have had no benefit whatsoever from the region being in power, so what exactly is the purpose of this power?

sarrki:
I agree they are same

It's good to see you are beginning to talk small small. Rather than blindly supporting like before.

By the way, WHEN IS BUHARI RETURNING TO NIGERIA?

NLPsychologist:
Hehehehehe It's called ipob sensitization.

It's called ignorance, and there is nothing funny about it. Save your sensitization for other threads, not here. This is a family who just lost their breadwinner, father and husband. Let's have some respect.

Nma27:
Where is Buhari Nigerians are so gullible! They've forgotten about the main issue on Ground!

Thank you. Distraction tactics.

Where is the president?!

NLPsychologist:
Yet some Igbo ingrates won't see this.

There always will be that one person that will poison even a good thread. Applause.

Proud to be a Nigerian, for once, lol.

Such a brave man, and Nigerians' response to this is simply amazing.

9jakohai:
Funnily enough, it was the intention of the 6334 system we practice to give some form of vocational education at JSS level.

I recall back when I was in secondary school, our Introductory Technology teacher in JSS2 lamenting that we could not have practical lessons in woodworking when we were learning about it in our class then because we did not have a woodwork workshop (we learned the theory only).

In my opinion, it would be a good idea to learn some basic vocational skills at JSS level. After all,I did do Agricultural Science at JSS and SSS level...and yes...I went to farm (our Agric Science teacher was too practical minded....if he had the funds..I suspect the guy would have set up a small pilot farm with animals and plants to teach us)..and learned some stuff (and even now have a dream of one day setting up a chicken farm....layers and broilers...to sell eggs and meat)

Yes, the 6334 system intended for vocational studies to supplement the formal education and I think that's the way it should be. One shouldn't replace the other else there is the danger of key skills becoming obsolete.

Lol @ your agricultural teacher!
For me, we had to do practicals as part of Agric science, each person had a very tiny plot of allocated space to plant and groom which made it real. I think that's the way education should be - balanced.

What's stopping you from pursuing your dream?

9jakohai:
Because the people that make the digital age possible ...that make it work ......are those who underwent vocational and technical education....

It is the technicians who keep the power going, who build and repair your it stuff, etc that keep the digital age going.

A Junior secondary school serves a completely different purpose from a vocational school. The vocational/technical schools should be built separately, not the reverse of converting primary or junior schools to it. We just can't seem to get things right in this country.

Besides, what exactly is the link between vocational skills and the digital age as you claim?

This country is just retrogressing on speed dial. Shame.

In 2017, a digital age, this is what they consider the best option?

OgahBohz:
I work in his office and I can confirm to you that he has been paying, and even paid some areas owed by the previous govt,

for now, the man is trying his best..

FOR NOW..

Okay, fair enough. Thanks for clarifying that. I'm not sure most people are aware he's paid since he took over so it's good you're making that clear.

Paretomaster:
Will u shut it, intolerance how?

For many months u, and ur ppl have been spitting fire, and brimstone, u never see anything wrong with it, why is the agitation all centered around Northerners? U insult, and curse them anyhow, yet they ignore u.

You got tired and even start asking if they exist on nairaland.

Just a declaration, and u ve all lose ur mind, be sincere, what would have happened if the Northerners say just 10% of hate speech u, and kunnu have been throwing at them all dis while.

The declaration is commendable, but in order.

You obviously have a problem, if not you won't have jumped into conclusion over a simple statement. I understand frustrations are running high in Nigeria right now but try and take it easy else you will develop high BP for nothing.

Next time, learn to talk in a civil manner to get the right response.
Ciao.

FYI - comments on the thread below from various people across the divide confirm the intolerance of the Northerners, if you like act ignorant, your headache.

banki:
the governor was sworn in at the end of febuary only governed the state since march how can he be owing 5months salaries

So has he paid salaries since March or not? March, April, May is already 3 months.

That's a really kind gesture from Davido.

bitcoinvin:
The question is, how dare you upstage this people in a vote?
Even if Southeast, South-south and Southwest joined together cannot upstage the North.
More facts coming...
INJUSTICE OF OIL ALLOCATION IN NIGERIA (1)
North Central receives 20%;
CONTRIBUTES 0.00%.
North East receives 16%;
CONTRIBUTES 0.00%.
North West receives 21%;
CONTRIBUTES 0.00%.
Every month, the 19 Northern states receives a minimum of 57% of 100% of oil revenue to which they CONTRIBUTE 0.00%.
South West receives 16%;
CONTRIBUTES 3.97%.
South East receives 11.00%;
CONTRIBUTES 25.07%.
South South receives 15.00%;
CONTRIBUTES 70.64%.
More facts...
LGAs in NIGERIA:
Nigeria has 774 LGAs.
The North has 19 states, and the 19 states have 419 LGAs.
The South has 17 states, and the 17 states have 357 LGAs.
Working with the data from the office of the Accountant General as published by the Ministry of Finance (2013 April), the 357 LGAs of the 17 Southern states receive 45.1% of what they contribute is 100%.
The 419 LGAs of the 19 Northern states receive 54.9% of what they contribute is 0.00%.

Chai!

I don't think those figures of 0.00% are correct though. Haba. They must at least be contributing something no matter how small. I know their contributions are not significant but can't be 0% otherwise Nigeria is finished if that's indeed the case.

eleojo23:
Take it

that meme, lol

It is the Arewa Islamic Northern Nigeria dominated Army, Police, Navy and Civil Defence that has brought torture, killings, massacres and mayhem to communities and populations in the South. Till date, nobody has been held to account despite the existence of a comprehensive Amnesty International report to this effect.

It is abundantly evident from the genocidal statements coming from certain influential segments of Northern Nigeria that the British socio-political experimentation and economic fraud we know today as Nigeria, should not have been created in the first place.

We advise them not to make this mistake because Britain will no longer protect Islamic Northern Nigeria because in this digital age, the world is watching.

Meanwhile, has the North forgotten that it also has people living in the South? Intolerance is a really bad thing. Islamic Northern Nigeria. Hmm. Is that the grand plan? Only Muslims in the North and all others in the South.. in a country that is supposedly one. What a joke.

As for Britain, they have enough on their plate right now to bother about Nigeria.

Toscoas2:
As a graduate, it is a pity you cannot differentiate between being peaceful​ and buying cheap. As a corps member you can be loved by your students, that is not a strange thing. You only know a peaceful environment when issue like this rise up and it is brought to not, not an environment where both youths and elders reason alike whenever issues like ds occur. In southern parts of the country, you would hv heard d elders condemning the youths over such ultimatum, not for them to start backing it.

Well said. Those that should act as voice of reason are the ones egging them on.

As for that guy, I hope the #500 won't cost him his life.

Not even one goal, what are our boys doing?!

thunderbabs:
It is the state govt that owes, not the husband or governor, in other words, the state govt is held liable in case you want to sue, not the governor in this case

But the governor is accountable for the state, is he not?

Linux007:
Nobody is a true friend of the aboki, am afraid they have to learn the hard way.

The comments on this thread have been Really eye-opening.

Linux007:
Hahahaahahahaha.. At least afonja's and ipob agree on something... Isn't God wonderful??

Although a few have thrown shots at each other, most are following the principle of the enemy of my enemy is my friend, loool.

Betting agents have flooded all threads on NL.

When an Hausa-Fulani man kills another Nigerian, he has not committed an offence, but when another Nigerian kills Hausa-Fulani man, he has committed an offence and must be punished. That is the Nigeria of today for you’’, he remarked.

Just imagine. So basically they have the free licence to kill as they want.

Double standards, Injustice and unfairness need to stop.

This is an actual person whose life has been cut short. No value for human life in Nigeria. None.

marv1:
. Yes. You are right to some extent. I served in Sokoto twenty years ago and I was there for another three years making four years l stayed there. I can tell you what happened during the southern Kaduna killing. After that incident, the same killing has happened again like more than three times till date Those people don't want to know if you had lived with them for decades , once the killing starts you are their first target as non Hausa tribe. To worsen the situation, the current IG of police is a very tribalistic man to the core. He has compromised his office to a large extent on this.

Hmm. Very unfortunate situation this country is in.

Religion and Lack of education play a big role in this.

Mujtahida:
You know that was a standard theme of every coup broadcast: Good morning, fellow Nigerians, the men of the Nigerian Army under the leadership of General Shokoloko Bangoshay have seized power from the corrupt Government of General Kokoro Kuruma...

And it's filtered into our national psyche till date.

No wonder. Explains why we are here even decades later.

Kennydoc:
FG owns the oil but only northerners are fit to have the oil wells allocated to them, right? Over 80% of the 'juicy' oil wells are owned by northerners, and it's fair to you, abi? What happened to the principle of federal character on allocating the wells?

Why should individuals even own oil blocs in the first place? Not to mention people who are not even from the specific region where the oil wells are located. Rubbish. Things they wouldn't tolerate from others.
