geeez:

Fair in what sense?

Can you point to one thing he's done for Lagos since becoming president?

Just one thing

Despite Lagos being the most populous state

geeez:

I've seen impressive and massive industrialization in Lagos, Ogun, Oyo and Osun with new factories springing up

I know a lot has to do with what the states are doing to attract investments

Have you wondered why these things aren't happening in Borno or Ebonyi (two different challenges, same results)

St_Black:

If asking a SIMPLE & SALIENT question makes me a fool.......

then what do you actually think mirrors you as regards the porkies you made of a post?

..The Greatest of Fools rush before their wits !.....Your post gat you made Boy.!

Demdem:

im full of Crap.
I remain what I called myself earlier because i have failed miserably to substantiate my lies.so in my daft state, peddling lies is progress.pls call me Oponu,Fool and deal with me till my senses are restored .

Demdem:

Fool, present one post from me where I ever supported Fasholas action against the doctors and prove to all sane minds that u aren't a bastard.

Demdem: What's the big deal in Jonathan meeting with ASUU.
Mohammed is really on point with this release.

Dis Guy: hmm upon all the fertilizer cabals he systematically put out of business; I wonder why this minister didnt need a bullet proof car

GenBuhari: Buhari took over from Shagari because Nigeria was bankrupt.

Buhari was only in power for 20 months, and with his rejection of the ruinous terms for IMF loans it was not possible at that time to revive the steel plant.

You should be asking what did IBB and Obasanjo do with their 8 years continuous reigns to revive the plant? Especially Obasanjo who was enjoying record high oil prices during his 8years tenure.

tintingz: Muslims believe in Jesus(as) a prophet sent ONLY to the lost sheep of Israel the messiah, he will come back to to deny christianity and all what they(christians) called him. Islam will be his faith to preach and killed the anti-christ beast(dajjal).

Jesus himself said he will reject Christians that called him lord lord

Matthew 7:22-23 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’

funnyx:

So are you saying that Christians only believe half their book? Is the old testament not a part of the bible? I think you are just upset that you were caught with your books open.

blakky97: People are quick to use verses from the Koran to show that Islam is about violence, but it only seems like "violence" when it is taken out of context. People can say that the Bible promotes violence as well (if the verses are taken out of context). For instance, here are some choice passages from the Bible which when read in isolation makes the Bible appear to be a primer for evil:

1) In Samuel 15:2-3, the Lord orders Saul to kill all the Amalekite men, women and infants, 2) In Exodus 15:3, the Bible tells us the Lord is a man of war, 3) In Deuteronomy 13:6-16, the Lord instructs Israel to kill anyone who worships a different god or who worships the Lord differently, 4) In Mark 7:9, Jesus is critical of the Jews for not killing their disobedient children as prescribed by Old Testament law, 5) In Luke 19:22-27, Jesus orders killed anyone who refuses to be ruled by him.

Political and religious extremists have abused Islamic, Jewish, or Christian scriptures continuously throughout history. This would not happen if context was taken into consideration. Remember that the Bible and Koran came approximately 2000 and 1500 years ago, respectively.

It is also important to distinguish between Islam and Islamism. Islamism is "an ideology that demands man's complete adherence to the sacred law of Islam and rejects as much as possible outside influence, with some exceptions. It is imbued with a deep antagonism towards non-Muslims and has a particular hostility towards the West. It amounts to an effort to turn Islam, a religion and civilization, into an ideology." "Islamism" is not equivalent to "Islam."

Why do people think Islam revolves around violence? Because people commit the hasty generalization logical fallacy -- "what is true for a small sample must be true for the whole population."

So, a minority of Muslims that are anti-American radical fundamentalists that have misinterpreted the Qur'an and other religious teachings (and an even smaller portion have actually fought against the U.S. in one way or another) "must" represent the believers and followers of Islam as a whole. Therefore, it is a "dangerous" religion and "threat" to America, its populace, and democracy.

This, in addition to the terrorist activity, have falsely made people to believe that Islam is about violence. On the contrary, people who take the time to understand Islam will know that Islam revolves around peace. Their greeting, Asalamu alaykum, literally means: peace be upon you. The teaching of the Islamic Prophet, Mohammad (pbuh), can be read in the book called the Hadith. It is a sharp from what extremist Muslims do.

Muslims believe: the sin of killing one innocent person is equivalent to the sin of killing an entire. In this context, "innocent" is referring to anyone who hasn't caused you harm directly. (i.e. terrorists bombing WTC on 9/11 is a sin because they killed innocent people who had done no harm).

In conclusion, no religion promotes violence. People have to take the time to understand another persons religion before they jump to conclusions. Take context into consideration, don't let a minority group influence your perception of a group as a whole. The taliban and al qaeda don't represent Islam because they don't act in ways that Muslims should act in

Fulaman198:

One could say the same about Christians, although that would be generalising like you are doing

Fulaman198:

What are you saying my friend? The fact of the matter is these people are Christians committing crimes. However, the media refuses to acknowledge this. Instead whenever a Muslim commits a crime whether it is religious or not religious, the media blows things out of proportion and link it to Islam. The way the media is able to brainwash people about Islam and African Americans never ceases to amaze me. The funny thing is that so many people believe the lies.

Ayoobscom: The best of behavior is that of Muhammad and the only treasure left on earth is Qur'an...

Love is practice in Islam than any other religion on earth...the evil xtianity is doing to humanity is worse than killing by sword

Dare me,and I name 25 for you....

The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu, has said the decision of the aggrieved members of the Peoples Democratic Party to join the APC will change Nigeria’s political landscape forever.

Tinubu, who said this in an interview with the Aljazeera Television, on Wednesday, added that the party would fight corruption and waste in government. A script of the interview was obtained by The PUNCH, in Abuja, on Wednesday.

He expressed confidence that Nigeria’s political landscape had changed forever and for good.

In response, the National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, Chief Olisa Metuh, said time will tell which political party was truly popular.

According to Tinubu, the decision by the governors and their supporters to join the opposition APC has tilted the scale and balance of power in favour of the opposition.

He argued that Nigeria was now moving from imperialism to what he called proper democracy.

Tinubu said, “This development will start reshaping the landscape of politics in this country forever. Not for us only but for generation unborn.

“And the future of this country to take its position as a leader in Africa and not just as a well populated country that is big and directionless.

“Nigeria has tried in the past to achieve stable democracy. Like other African countries, we have had our share of military rule and a bit of democratic rule.

“But we are blessed with human and material resources which have not been harnessed for the welfare of the mass of the people in this country.”

The APC leader observed that the sophistication, honesty, trust, transparency which were essential ingredients of the electoral process had been absent in the Nigerian system.

Speaking further about the defects of the Nigerian political system, Tinubu said the balance of power was currently tilted in favour of the incumbency.

He noted that Nigerians had never seen a group that would have a common focus and put patriotism as the cornerstone of their guiding principle.

“This is a party that will put people at the forefront of their cause in participating in politics. Never has there been a group that will focus on the welfare of the Nigerian citizenry and fight corruption and waste in governance.

“There are many areas that this new APC alliance and effort will unveil. We will ensure that we have credibility in the voting system, the character, commitment of our people – the value that you want to pass the torch to the coming generation on democracy,” he said.

Tinubu, who is a former Lagos State governor, observed that the perception of having so many governors working together in one party and platform alone would encourage people to share ideas as well as values and boost their confidence in the electoral system.

He also stressed that a shift in the power equilibrium would rekindle the expectation of the world that the nation’s opposition did not only exist on paper but that it was physically present in Nigeria.

He accused the ruling party of systematically encouraging corruption, lacking care and focus on the primary things that would develop the country.

He expressed sadness that Nigeria had kept missing the bull’s eye in the critical path to a democratic success.

However, Metuh said it was laughable for the opposition party which was the “home of corruption” to accuse the PDP administration.

Metuh said “2015 is just by the corner it’s not too far. Talk is cheap, they have played all their cards and done all they think they can do, time will tell who has more number of followers.”

egift: Another PDP rumour mill.

APC have kicked the Ogogoro off him. ASUU should not worry, APC will come for your rescue come 2015.
