My real guy, u are highly greeted...!

datolee:
I dey bro, how your side?

It's really very sad they way they play their politics. Twisting facts, propagating lies and deceit. We must keep telling the Nigerian Public the truth

datolee:
Your question has no bases, Capital oil wasn't taken over by AMCON because of subsidy fraud, AMCON does not investigate subsidy fraud, It was taken over like other banks because of debt!

In fact, the earlier arrangement was for AMCON to manage the company for two years (from 2013 to 2015), stablize the company ad hand it back over to Ifeanyi Uba, he never stopped being the owner, just that he was ousted as the CEO and cannot sign cheque. As matter of fact, AMCON gave him two options, either to continue working as CEO and forfeit his governorship aspiration or go for governorship and forfeit being CEO.

What is the relationship between AMCON and subsidy? He has reached agreement with AMCON just like the other banks and business taken over by AMCON and he is reinstated as the CEO. all these while, he never cease to be the owner.

We shout corruption every time. Don't mislead people

It's only those that can not engage in superior argument that resorted in insults.

I started following nairaland when I was in high school but now I have graduated from the university, working, I have never insulted anybody on this platform before.

And I wish to use this medium as an avenue to announce that we're all entitle to our own point of view. We see things entirely differently. I have my values and moral compass that make me respect everybody irrespective of who you are or where you are.

If you support Buhari or APC it's non of my business. I'm a reasoning being, and I'm supporting GEJ for reasons best known to me and you ought to respect that.

I just think it's only uncivilized and uncultured fellas that resorted in insult.

If you're too emotional please don't come online.

Edit your comments and rip off all foul or derogatory words before posting.

You always clamour for political change but you've refused to change.

This post is meant for all affiliates. Moderators!!!

Funniez:
I swear Buhari will regret ever picking that nomination form come 2015.

mikeansy:
Apart from the fact that some emirs were given preferential treatment, that law itself is as boneheaded as they come!

How can the economy of any nation survive if the country's international businessmen can not handle any foreign currency?

That's not fight against corruption, that's plain stup.i.dit.y!

Acidosis:
Politics is cra. zy I swear! B.e.r.e.m, you're my good friend off-nl? Why call me 'jobless'?
Have I ever begged you for a job?

APC is just full of LIES!! Buhari was witch hunting FELA for exposing and writing a song about the 2.8 billion dollars that got stolen while buhari petroleum minister in 1978.

This is the TRUTH:- On 4 September last year (1984), minutes before leaving the country for an extensive tour of the US, Fela Anikulapo Kuti was arrested at the airport of Lagos. Fela was supposed to have carried 1600 English pounds with him instead of the maximum amount of 50 that one person is allowed to take out of the country. An accusation that Fela’s defense did not deny but explained by pointing to the 45 people in the retinue of the musician. And 1600 divided by 45 is nowhere near 50pounds

alphadux1:
If this is true, then it was not a well thought out law, it was a case of generalisation, an assumption that all Nigerians bringing in or sending out foreign currency had to be stealing from the government or laundering. The law alone is a violation of fundamental human rights.

My heart bleeds for my dear country!

The plan of jonathan/PDP is to destabilize the North Eastern States in order to provide an excuse for INEC, on why election should not be held there!

The Blood jonathan, ihejirika, Oritsejafor and PDP are shedding in the North will eventually torment their families and entire Lineage!

Jonathan is a very useless and nonentity president! Nonesense

barcanista:
When General Muhammadu Buhari came to power, there was wide corruption in the Second Republic. A decree was passed that nobody take out or bring in foreign currency into the country. Offenders are liable to 10years in Jail. This decree was to curb money laundering by politicians and corrupt businessmen.

FELA KUTI
Fela had performed abroad, he was paid in foreign currency in cash and had it on him on his return to Lagos. He was subsequently arrested for breaking the law and was prosecuted, found guilty and jailed.

PLEA:
There was a plea by human right groups to Head of State Buhari to "pardon" Fela, he refused because he believe that the law be served to the letter.

THE OFFENSE, GMB AND FELA:
First, there was an existing law/decree.

Secondly, Fela bringing in cash means it contradicts the law/decree, however, the money is from hard work.
Morally, he's justified! Legally, he is not.

Buhari had refused to grant pardon, because the law was broken. If he grants pardon, some section of politicians will accuse him of preferential treatment. He didn't because he believes in absolute discipline.
By law, he is justified. Morally, he is not, considering that it was Fela's sweat(my opinion). The law does not work with emotion unfortunately.

MY OPINION:
GMB should have pardoned Fela. The law should have made for exception. Buhari should have tampered justice with mercy

Oga hope sey you nor go mind make I stand behind you for that waiting line because as I see am that queue go long die

HugeCock:
You TANoids should shut up abeg. Leave d man alone. One fact for sure is dat he's leaving lagos in a far far better state dan he met it. Wat have your pdp govs done in their various states? Abia is an eyesore. Nothing remarkable in kebbi, plateau etc. I dont even need to mention adamawa. Two governors are running dat state. Bayelsa is a ghost state. Nothing is working there. Imagine spendin one year in an office hoping for some work to do only to end up playin game on my laptop everyday. D only thing you ppl can boast of is a stadium which d pitch couldn't even stand 45mins before changin colour. Rivers state sports complex is even cheaper dan dat stadium.....Summary? Clean ur house first before you accuse ur neighbour of living in a dirty house

adekampe:
One must admire the bravery. Sacrificing his position in the scheme of things and speaking against a benefactor that has obviously become power drunk and lost his way.

Muiz Banire is a true hero.

Is this an application or an announcement of appointment
It may be the former with our Oga @ the Top using this format to test candidates before final selection.
So na which one?

oluwabambam:
Sometimes I think I'm mad. Perhaps I am if insanity is now seen as sanity and the order of the day.

I have never, not for once, celebrated or praised Fashola's administration. No apologies, but most Nigerians are gullible.

Can anyone ask the sincere question what Fashola's administration, or Tinubu's, has done in the last 15 years? Planting of flowers around town? Where? Ajegunle?

For what purpose?

How does that add to the quality of life?

Isn't that a tiny fraction of the Ministry of Environment's responsibilities?

How many roads have been fixed in Lagos?

Where are the street lights?

They brought in some poor quality China-made solar lights that ceased working just the next week after installation in a few parts around Ikeja axis.

The drainage system is still poor!

N18 billion per month is just the publicly declared figure!

You'll be shocked to know how much is being siphoned away to foreign accounts before official declaration is done.

You think the APC goons care about you?

Who are you, poor Lagosian?

You think because Fashola has the aura of a technocrat or just because he's a trained lawyer would make him a responsible leader?

Do you know why the term 'Wolves in sheep's clothing' exist?

You can't recognize them?

Many of those praising Fashola or venerating APC in Lagos would probably be dead in their graves before realizing they've been robbed blind by those whom they ascribe excellency status to.

What's excellent about people that are meant to 'serve' you?

You, the tax-payer?

You pay them to carry out functions for you just because it's impossible for every man to be in government.

They turn around and act like gods, and you clap hands for them that they've done well.

He's a working governor, you say. Lagos is working, Fashola is working, you say. Indeed.

You are myopic. Sorry; you are totally blind.

Blame it on ignorance and a mediocre brain.

Fashola is working for himself, his wife, his children, his grandchildren, great grandchildren, and Emperor Bola Tinubu's clan.

People have brains but have refused to use it!

I am in no support of any party be it PDP or APC, but let's have a change even if for the sake of change.

These rogues in power are confident that they can't be booted out of office because they know the power lies with them until the people prove them wrong.

If the next person comes to power and acts like a fool, give him the boot after four years.

The next slowpoke after that would probably sit up.

mekaboy:
I spoke about the bitterness of the opposition in my other thread https://www.nairaland.com/1986783/dangers-voting-out-gej-apc and some Nigerians who have been deceived by the opposition disagreed with

We see how bomb blast always occur as soon as GEJ is about to achieve or celebrate anything in Nigeria http://www.punchng.com/news/anti-jonathan-forces-behind-bombings-pdp/

WHAT IS AT STAKE IN 2015 FOR THE NORTH?

1) Most of the oil blocks in Nigeria are owned by the north and the licenses will expire in 2015, therefore a Northern Muslims must be in power in 2015 to ensure that this licenses are not withdrawn and shared properly when it expires.

2) A census will be conducted in 2015, and the true population of the north will be exposed, hence a Northerner has to be in power to be able to manipulate this.

We are no longer fools in Nigeria. The reason this administration is facing this much challenges is because it is making "PROGRESS" . This bomb tactics has expired, we sympathize with those who lost their loved ones but i want to tell the opposition that this will not give them the desired result they expect even if they wipe out all the children in the north.


We cant have leaders who have blood of innocent children on their hands ruling Nigeria. It will be a curse on our land.

I REPEAT I AM NOT A GEJ SUPPORTER, BUT THE CURRENT OPPOSITION IS NOT AN OPTION.
