Obi tried but missed out on key issues

He kept offering simple answers which are attractive but not practical.

He was over killing with China Analogy


Osinbajo tried

He offered more realistic and logical solutions and responses

He went on attack when it came to most economic based issues.

The YDP lady had decent spells in the debate

Galadima should never be allowed to hold a public office in Nigeria

Good bless you for this submission

But how powerful is the position of the VP?
How much economic policy can they influence?
I can't remember what Sambo did during Jonathan's era..

Osinbajo is the smartest of them all so far... Take it or leave it

That's just analysis on pornhub..

Analysis results from other X-rated sites may actually be different from this one..

Power supply, access to smartphones and steady Internet access could have contributed to the high rate of pornography watching practice by the South Africans

Don Baba Jay... What a mature parting shot

Icon4s:
Such a good thing that Watford really has confidence in starting Succees.

He's been fantastic so far, putting a lot of pressure on Mina..

Celta Vigo punishing poor Villareal by 3 goals to nothing...
Our own Samuel Chimerenka Chukwueze removed after 55 minutes of play.. His performance was average

Chelsea 1-4 Manchester City

My former house officer...

Congrats to her

Leon Balogun with a smashhh... A lovely strike to double Brighton 's lead

20k this festive season without prior notification is really barbaric and unacceptable.. Doctors need to reject this horrific, reckless and exploitative demand by the NMA

tbaba1234:
Musa Yahaya started today. Nwakali on the bench as usual. Came on in the 74th minute

For Porto B..

I hope the duo of Musa and Kelechi can request for a loan for to modest club in the Belgian league.. This can bring a necessary resurgence to their dwindling careers

When I got my second child, Jayden on 9/5/18.
The labour was so calm and peaceful..

Joebie:
Oshoala needs a personal coach.

along with a pyshologist too..

She didn't really live up to her reputation in the competition..

We hope NFF will give the ladies all necessary supports toward their preparation for the next world cup as well ..

...a friend, diehard Arsenal fan needs the phone number of the South African female goal keeper, he wants to console her

Any useful hint ?

Etuhu Match-Fixing Trial to Commence Today

Former Premier League player Dickson Etuhu will go on trial in a Swedish court on Thursday to face a charge of match-fixing, which he denies.

Etuhu played for Manchester City, Preston North End, Norwich, Sunderland, Fulham and Blackburn Rovers before moving to play in Sweden, and also featured for Nigeria in the 2010 World Cup.

He is charged with trying to bribe a goalkeeper to fix the result of a league match between his former side, Stockholm AIK, and IFK Gothenburg.

The game was due to be played on May 18, 2017, but was postponed after goalkeeper Kenny Stamatopoulos told AIK he had been approached by Etuhu and another man with a view to fixing the game, according to the 473-page pre-trial protocol.

Etuhu has said his former team-mate must have misunderstood the conversation.
"I respect everyone's opinion, but the facts remain the same - it never happened ... It's unbelievable that an ordinary conversation with a friend can lead to something like this," Etuhu told Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter.

The offence of gross bribery carries a maximum sentence of six years in prison.

Etuhu, 36, and his lawyer Johan Akermark both declined to comment ahead of the trial, being held at the Stockholm District Court

Chukwueze scores...he makes it 2-0 for the Villarreal

This dude is really tall.. Hope he can turn it to his own advantage just like Elizabeth Foluke Cambage..

Good bless their union..

Naeto C.. Awon ti 007, sharp shooter olowo ori sharp receiver.

Big congrats brother

HOCM... Rip

Softhands:
You believe those people? Guy u will believe anything. Go figure how the financing of the third mainland bridge was done. Go figure how our parents had it easier during their time... The oil money is blood money...and the Civil servants asking for their share isn't out of place.

I agree with you that our parents had it easier during their time..
Nigeria was very rich during the period 3rd mainland bridge was built but during that period, our money had more value than what it is now. Our agricultural sector was one of the best in Africa, we had cocoa, groundnuts and palm oil to export in large quantity then. Our demand for dollars then is not the same as at now.
You and I know what the situation is presently..

My brother, I have no problem with the labour union agitations and demands. Based on our fiscal policy, I don't think meeting their demends is sustainable across boards.

safarigirl:
lol.....you obviously aren't conversant with this country if you think Nigeria is not rich enough to meet the demands


If you know how much the people at the top steal from this country on the daily, you will marvel at the fact that Nigeria has not shut down.

Money dey o, after all, National Assembly members are paid hundreds of millions per year minus bribery money

I'm very much aware of corruption that happen both at the so called top level and even at the low level.
Even at the, if all these loopholes are blocked, I don't think the government at all levels (federal, state and local) can sustain the demanded minimum wage.

Imagine, most of the revenues go into recurrent expenditure, what happens to beautiful roads, quality healthcare, revamped military services etc we all yearn for?
What happens when our 'golden' crude oil vanish or alternative energy source is discovered?

For government to initiate the new salary scale as being demanded by the Labour unions is a small thing but is it sustainable?

Softhands:
How many barrels of crude oil does Nigeria produce daily? Billions of Dollars yearly...and you are asking Nigeria is rich enough?

And your crude oil will never dry?
Crude oil is being sold at 70£ per barrel yet you borrow money to finance your budget..

drskyfly007:
Bro your answer is wrong..Naija is a rich country mismanaged by charlatans!

How did those charlatans get to power?
Who are the people defending them online?

vince96w2:
if the executives and legislature stop looting our funds,paying themselves our resources, then yes it's enough... Mismanagement is our problem? What is the percentage of employed people with regards the political office holders?

I agree with you sir if the exorbitant cost of governance is reduced drastically.

The question is who is going to take that bold step?

macIB:
My friend, the answer is YES. Nigeria is rich enough to meet any demand whatsoever by the citizens. The corruption in high places, the incredulous salary allocated to politicians and lack of political will are the reasons we are in this sorry state as a nation.

I agree with you that there is corruption in high places..
I agree that there is a urgent need to cut down the cost of running our government..
I agree that that there is a lack of political will of the part of the government to meed the populace basic needs.

But you will agree with me that corruption is not limited to the high places but also in the low places, including our homes.
You will agree with me that the spate of unproductivity in our federal and state ministries is repulsive
You will agree with me that bulk of our budget especially at the state level goes into salary payments

We still borrow money to finance bulk of our budgets
I will be happy if the government can pay the new minimum wage, atleaset my wife salary will go up but the rebound inflation that may follow will negate expected benefits

dfo12:
Is Nigeria rich enough to meet the demands of these Unions?
My answer is YES!
Are the greedy governors and politicians willing to better the lives of their subjects?
My answer is they do not care about the people.

I agree with you that the cost of our governance is very expensive.. But you and I know that cutting down the cost of governance is a decision that will be made by all the three arms of our government... Running after that is like chasing a shadow

engrfcuksmtin:
So what happened to all the recovered funds, increase in IGR from FIRS, Customs, Jamb and other agencies, reduction in leakages through implimentation of TSA as claimed In addition to improvement in the oil price?

It is not about payment of salary for 7 months with recovered money but sustainability without nosediving into regrettable deficit.. The payment is not only at the federal level but state and local government inclusive.
The 18000 that is being paid not, many state governments are struggling to pay it promptly.

Even if all the loopholes are blocked, payment of the demanded wages is not sustainable.

Most Nigerians have strong believe that we are rich...

ASUU then NLC strike after they've all collected October salaries.. It's ok.

The big question is 'is Nigeria rich enough to meet the demands of these Unions?

My answer is NO!

Nothing to justify what the little girl did.. Nothing will happen to her.
They can even be sued for child labor..


Lesson :
Never employ a minor as housemaid
Be kind to your drivers, maid, cooks gatemen

Hope those that are found culpable would be punished...

Corruption flourish in a society where there is no system that checkmate it..

Our fundamental problem in this country is systemic..

All the micro units that made up the system have to work in unison to jettison the habitual corruptible traits in us..

Enough grammar... I dey find where to buy hot yellow boli with groundnut
