Why did they declare them wanted in the first place. Nigerian Army is so backward interms of intelligence gathering. Since they cannot infiltrate Bokoharam camp, they decided to declare this people wanted. With these, they have further destroy the very lane that would have gotten closer to Bokoharam. How can they protect Nigeria's sovereignty with lack of intelligence?

[quote author=omenka post=48547840]They should declare PDP a terrorist organisation already.

A party that founded and sponsors Boko Haram (a terrorist organisaion) should have no business existing in a free society.

A party that founded and sponsors Niger Delta Avengers (a terrorist organisation) should have no business seeking stability and progress in a free society.

A party that founded and sponsors iPod (a terrorist organisation) should have no business seeking political power in a united Nigerian state.

Ps: Before some people begin dey complain about time of posting, lemme quickly add- if you get to grab a copy of the series I'm watching, you wouldn't mind robbing yourself of sleep as well. Best thing ever on tv! #House of Cards S4. ;




house of card is one of d best movie i have ever watch. Frank Underwood and his wife Claire show that politic is a game of not only mind but careful planning. It can also make one dangerous if u are in dire need of power. But above all, politics whether in America of Nigeria is not totally pure.

Yes I remember but who knows whether he would have done that when that day would have come. Remember IBB and ABACHA ,they said d same thing but couldn't implement it until they we're force out.

[quote author=MadCow1 post=48532063]NEPA... Obasanjo started the Electricity road Map Nigeria is building on today. He unbundled NEPA which was an uphill task.. He also started most of the IPP projects that are still on-going today. Infact the last IPP commissioned by Jonathan (Oloronshogo 2) was already commissioned by Obasanjo during his time.. grin I wonder what GEJ went to commission, maybe an upgrade..


I watched the Minster of solid minerals Omisore talk about the steel companies and the truth is that shiit was fhucked up a long time before Obasanjo. And its been tied up in Arbitration in London for so long and its only now that this government is trying to reach an out of court settlement with the parties concerned. Ask for Delta Steel, I also learnt it was taken over by AMCOn from the concessionaires due to bad debts owed to banks and sold off to another company.

Obasanjo tried to sell off the Refineries and change the NNPC to a full blown company.. This was stone walled by the Senate and other unions. Infact I remember some NNPC offices mysteriously going up in flames when talks of auditing the, came up. grin

The Railway revolution was also started by him. Even the ones being credited to GEJ.

It's so easy to forget he scrapped NITEL and gave way for the telecommunications revolution that has made even cyber cafes obsolete and directly and indirectly created millions of jobs nationwide. When next you grab a mobile phone, remember that before Obasanjo, that was a luxury you would not have been able to afford.. Do you even remember ECONET? grin

Most of the Federal roads under repairs are all Obasanjo that started them. From the Benin - Shagamu to East -West to Owerri - Onitsha to Onitsha - Enugu.. to those in the north as well..

The EFCC was created by him and had remarkable success in prosecuting the likes of Bode George, Tafa Balogun, Alamesigha and Co. .

All this yet being surrounded by the worst set of Governors ever in Nigeria's democracy that had the likes of Ibori, Odili, late Alamesigha, Orji Uzor Kanu, Lucky Igbinedion, Abubakar Audu, Akande and Co. .


Remember he also negotiated and paid off Nigeria's external debts, increase Nigeria's foreign reserves and even set up the excess crude account that helped Nigeria through the global recession period.


Like I said, all things considered, Obasanjo was not actually as bad as people make him out to be.




I quite agree with u. I know all that but I believe he shld have done more. Anyway thanks for the constructive rreply.I appreciate. That is why we in this forum shld always b able to argue constructively after all we are here to learn. One will never know d position he or she will hold in future.Everybody is a political animal .Thank u once again

[quote author=MadCow1 post=48526588]WRONG!!


All things considered, Obasanjo did just fine as both Military and Civilian leader.


Tell me, is it d resuscitation of Alscon in ikot Abasi or that of our steel companies in kogi and Delta steel company. Let me not talk abt refineries and our then comatose NEPA which he sunk it billion of dollars. Shld we talk abt our federal road network at that time.

Chigold101:
Though this post does not say much but the problem is that those guys managing Buhari wont allow him to see or read this.


They tell him lies that all Nigerians love his leadership style thats why the man keep miss firing at all angles.


Oba u better go Aso Rock go tell this man or else u just wasted ur time.





But i think he do not work from 6am till the next day. Why shld d President not create time atleast 1hour everyday to read newspaper on his own or read online news with that d advisers will not b able to control what he read or hear. I knw such require somebody that is sound academically which i doubt Buhari is judging from his WASCE result.

[quote author=shukuokukobambi post=48524322]Well, that will be left for the heterogeneous regions to worry about. However by that time, no baga will have a reason to scream that the Yoruba people or hausa people are their problem.

Every region can develop homegrown techniques for resolving their own peculiar conflicts.

Let us look at it this way, if u have 37 hens and 7 lays big eggs that fetch u good money, will u take them anyhow. If u go in to d poultry and discover that the 7 is sick am telling u that u will do everything possible for them to b healthy.

U will not kill them or threaten them but rather u will b subtle. That is what happen to Buhari and d Avengers. U don't kill d hen that lay d golden egg.

Am not in support of Avengers.

[quote author=shukuokukobambi post=48522443]How will that leader get there in the first place?

How would Buhari have gotten there without entering into some unholy alliances that would need compromises to keep?

My dear, Nigeria can never be rid of corruption as it is. If dividing is too extreme, then regionalism for a start. localizing govt will make it easy for us to lynch political leaders who get drunk on power and our money. Agbekoya struggle of the '60s western region proves this.

Abuja provides too much security and cover for political leaders from all over the country.


I like the 'lynching' part. Sometimes i ask myself how Malaysia, South Korea were able to fight corruption to b where they are today. Remember this two countries was not near Nigeria both in GDP and NDP.

In terms of Regional govt that u pointed out, my brother if we don't fight can't tribalism now then with that it will b out of hand; because minority tribe in that region will b dominated by d majority and there will b problem.

Power shld b trime down from federal Govt and b given to d states and local government more while the center will have eagle eye over hw d states makes use of d resources.

[quote author=shukuokukobambi post=48521842]Sadly, i have to agree with you.

However, one thing i've learnt with this Buhari govt is that no human can fight corruption in Nigeria because if you kill corruption, you'll kill Nigeria.

Corruption is the blood that sustains this fvcking country. until this country breaks or goes back to the regions, we will not eliminate corruption.



Hahahaha, i agree with u. The first step of fighting corruption in Nigeria is making any elected offices less attractive. Both d National Assembly and State own shld b on part time basis, believe me u will see a drastic drop from people fighting for it.

Above all NigerIan need a leader with a will power who can even fight his own blood if found wanting in d corruption arena.

[quote author=shukuokukobambi post=48520717]He's the best leader we've had since 1999.


He would have been though he tried,but don't forget he help to entrench corruption even in National Assembly. Even till today people that we privy abt the sharing of money in support for third term are still talking abt it example is Ghali Na Abba who was there. Obj had everything to fight corruption to the lowest of all time but he was busy using EFCC to fight perceived enemies.

Do u knw that Ibori and Alamesiagha wouldn't have been in prison if not for being a staunch supporter of Atiku and were also with a Strong financial war chest so OBJ set them up because he knew if he can get especially Ibori then Atiku will b weaken. Even till today Ibori is d god father of Delta politics. He still decides who occupies d state as Governor and other sensitive post.

Instead of Buhari to tell these people that this is 2016 not 1950, he is busy support their nomadic ways which is not healthier anymore.

Guy why r u like this? What has south south got to do with oil exploration in d north? Who told u everybody in Niger Delta support what Avengers are doing? Bokoharam is killing people in d north, does it means all Northeners support them?

I am praying that North shld find crude oil in large quantities so that they will also be paid 13% derivation instead of 100%.
