Yea Buhari's campaign DG is a man he jailed for corruption in 1984. Ruma one of his financiers embezzled the money meant for silos and dams. And Abacha is close associate. Marwa the arrowhead of Abacha's money laundering machine is his gov candidate in Adamawa state
Why is that?
PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE EITHER NOT IN THE VOTING AGE OR ARE NOT MARRIED OR DO NOT CARE WHO BECOMES YOUR PRESIDENT.
IF NOT, WHY DO YOU PUT A SIGNATURE THAT SUGGESTS THAT NIGERIA DOES NOT NEED AN EXTREMIST. ARE WE NOT EXPERIENCING AN EXTREME NATIONAL POWER FAILURE, EXTREME WATER FAILURE, EXTREME CORRUPTION, EXTREME COLLAPSE IN THE HEALTH AND EDUCATIONAL SECTORS AND OTHER EXTREME NATIONAL WOES?

for those of you pointing fingers at PDP, saying they achieved nothing after 12yrs. you should all ask yourself what the cause are:

1) Nepotism: we have not had a qualified condidate since 1977

2) Tribalism: the northerners doesn't have the interest of Nigeria at heart, all they want is power.

3) Birth right: the northerners now sees the presidential seat as their birth right and could go extreme just to have it back. (But this time, Buhari is a failure)

4) Old age: Old Age has done alot of harm to Nigeria or else, OBJ would have invented measures for a constant electricity supply, instead he admitted in one of the press interview granted to him at the local airport (as at the time he handed over to A NORTHERNER, yar-dua) that Nigeria should hand over electricity problem to God. as if that was not enough, the Northerner, Yar-dua confirmed it and we are still facing it till date.

I could go on and one but in all, the northerners can not invent any positive changes in Nigeria, in all ramification. so Buhari should go and seat down cos presidential seat is not their birth right. we need change and Goodluck Ebele Jonathan is in to invent positive changes in Nigeria

Fortunately, i'm from the north but the truth must be told, we do not have anything positive to offer Nigeria

How about the fact that a President has a Minister of Education, a Minister of state for education, a Senior Special Adviser (SSA) on Education, A Special Assistant on Education etc.

The same goes for media, communication, Works, and all others.

To worsen it , the same aplies at the State levels and Local Govt levels.

The end result is that the Cost of running government far out weighs the task of governing itself. That is where the issue of Overhead and Underhead costs emanate from.
Who suffers? The masses because their money is heavily paid to these jobless appointees and since the positions are so juicy, anyone can kill to get there.

@Oluwabamis & Opalu,
I slightly disagree with you guys here. Seun is free to take sides as he's a Nigerian who would also be affected by the policies of any government we have in the country. Where I have issues with Seun's posts these past few days are his deliberate attempts at distorting facts and peddling of falsehood in his bid to promote his chosen candidate, GEJ, while he's shamefully and aimlessly attempting to denigrate Buhari. Unfortunately for him, he's been caught pants down on all occasions.

As an Engineer who has been in the construction industry for many years now, I know first hand that N7.65Bn can build at least 7,000 Low cost houses in Nigeria.
Last time, we were building some mini-flats for N650,000 per unit (in the lowcost category). Then, they were just less than 100 units.

So if you give us N7.65Bn, the minimum will can churn out is 7000
2-Bedroom flats for Lowcost group. This would not include Land acquisition and processes.

The impunity enjoyed by the controversial Chief Justice of the Federation, Justice Aloysius Iyorgher Katsina-Alu, took a new turn today (Tuesday, 22 March) when he got President Goodluck Jonathan and the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the Federation, Bello Adokie, to fire the Acting Chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Crimes Commission (ICPC), Ambassador (Dr.) Uriah Angulu.

The letter to the CJN that got Ambassador Angulu firedTop placed sources within the Justice Ministry in Abuja and Aso Rock Presidential Villa told Saharareporters this evening that the ouster of the acting chairman of the ICPC was primarily due to his decision to investigate a N6 billon scandal at the National Judicial Institute (NJI) where the CJN is the Chairman of the Governing Council. CJN Katsina-Alu and the administrator of the NJI, retired Justice Umaru Eri, are both allegedly implicated in the N6 billion fraud.
Ambassador Angulu, who has been acting as the Chairman of the ICPC since the lackluster end of the term of Justice Emmanuel Ayoola in November 2010, handed over late this afternoon in Abuja, Nigeria, to Dr. Rosemary Abang-Wushishi, a retired Assistant Inspector General of Police (AIG) and member of the ICPC Board, described by a source at the ICPC as an ‘inept, physically and mentally tired woman who resumes work around two in the afternoon.’

Saharareporters learnt that since Ambassador Angulu, a former Consul General of Nigeria in New York, between 1981 and 1984, took over at the ICPC, he has tried to revive the commission which has “become inept and ineffective under Justice Ayoola.” Angulu’s “chief crime” was said to be his total refusal to do any deals on subsisting cases, investigations and petitions. When he ordered investigations into the alleged N6 billion fraud involving the CJN and the Administrator of the NJI, Justice Katsina-Alu wrote a letter of invitation to him for discussions. But Angulu fired back to the CJN that the ICPC was not under the CJN and that, as a target of ICPC’s investigations, the CJN could not invite him to his office. Rather, the former Ahmadu Bello University don insisted, if the CJN wanted to see him, he could visit him (Angulu) in his office at the ICPC Headquarters.

Our sources said that Justice Katsina-Alu saw this not only as “an insult”, but more importantly, felt that Angulu’s “effrontery” and “inflexibility” may spell disaster for him and his allies, given the on-going controversy started by his effort to remove the President of the Federal Court of Appeal, Justice Ayo Salami, from office through “promotion” to the Supreme Court. If Angulu was allowed to go ahead with his investigations and got the media’s attention, the CJN argued, his credibility may be totally destroyed before his retirement in a few months.

Justice Katsina-Alu therefore called the attention of the Justice Minister, Bello Adokie, - whom he nominated in replacement of his disgraced predecessor, Michael Aondoakaa - to the “brewing scandal.” Adokie was said to have quickly contacted President Jonathan, who is said to be enjoying a “cosy relationship” with the CJN. Adokie, our sources revealed, brought Jonathan’s attention to the implications of allowing the Ambassador Angulu “to rubbish” the CJN over the N6 billion fraud allegation. If the CJN was forced to resign “in ignominy,” Adokie told Jonathan, it would mean that the President and his party may no longer be able to “kick out Justice Salami” from the Appeal Court. All of these would have “dire consequences” for the fate of the president and his party in the aftermath of the coming elections. This is even very crucial, our sources hinted, given the predicted likelihood of a run-off in the coming presidential elections and the likelihood of a judicial contest of the results of the elections.

Jonathan saw the “danger” to his ambition and the fortune of his party and immediately ordered the Secretary to the Government of the Federation to work with the AGF to ask the acting Chairman of the ICPC, Ambassador Angulu, to proceed on terminal leave immediately and hand over to Abang-Wushishi. Abang-Wushishi, like Mrs. Farida Waziri, also a retired AIG, is expected to stop the cases against the president’s men, once she assumed office.

Apart from Katsina-Alu, Jonathan’s Minister of Health, Alhaji Suleiman Bello, has also been put on trial by the ICPC under Ambassador Angulu, for alleged fraud. Bello was a senior official of INEC in many states before he became the Resident Electoral Commissioner in Adamawa State during the last elections. In spite of having been an umpire in the elections, Bello was then appointed as a federal minister by one of the competitors, the PDP. However, recently, Bello was put to trial by the ICPC for allegedly illegally receiving the sum of N11.2 million as “hardship allowance” from the governor of the state, Admiral Murtala Nyako (ret.), in 2007. He was said to have collected other sums from the governor after this.

All attempts to persuade the acting chairman of the ICPC, Angulu, to drop the charges or discontinue the trial by the Attorney General and the PDP fell on deaf ears. When all else failed, Attorney-General Adokie, like Michael Aondoakaa before him, took over the case in Yola High Court from the ICPC, in exercising the powers conferred on him by Section 174 sub section 1 (b) of the Constitution. In seeking to protect the accused Minister of Health, who has refused to resign despite his trial, Adokie ignored Section 174, sub-section 3 of the 1999 Constitution which states that "In exercising his powers under this section, the Attorney General of the Federation shall have regard to the public interest, the interest of justice and the need to prevent abuse of legal process."
A source at the ICPC stated that Adokie has ordered his lawyers to enter a nolle prosequi (“will not prosecute”) in the case against Health Minister Suleiman Bello soon. The source added, “I don’t know where they recruit these AGFs from, since the time of Abacha. It is as if the law profession has a special pool of SANs who have no regard for their names and for public interest. I tell you, this Adokie guy would end up in worse ignominy than the infamous Aondoakaa. He seems worse. And to think that President Jonathan is also mouthing the rule of law like Yar’Adua was doing as his Justice Minister is violating that rule right, left and centre.”
