Really? Are you telling me that there are 'dirties' everywhere in Aba now?

On a more serious note, it appears someone is contending it. Provide the street of Aba you just took that snapshot from let NLers in Aba collaborate your claim.

Aigbofa:

How do you shut up in a democracy? Isn't the whole process based on speaking up?
Yeah, you are right, just that my worry is that you somehow manage to 'shut up' about atrocities going on in your stronghold. I think it takes special kind of hypocrisy to look at the list of all properties and holdings owned by Tinubu in Lagos alone and manage to 'shut up' but get very 'democratic' about Alams and his returned loots.

Politics / Re: FIRS Realised N1.5trn In 4months,targets N6trn From The Economy Boom by FrankC3: 7:33am On Jun 08, 2013
Sunny_bobo: I can't just stop loving this woman, Madam Ngozi Okonjo Iweala. Her internal reforms within the ministries and parastatals are beginning to pay off as it's no longer business as usual. It is becoming increasingly difficult for office level corrupt practices to be practised with impunity as she has continually churned out policies which distances civil servants from money. These have in turn resulted in increased revenue generation.

Majority of Nigerians do not know that the money stolen by our thieving politicians is just a minute fraction of what is stolen in the civil service. The civil service is where most revenue due the government is lost and Madam NOI understands that and is putting in place an integrated automated system to distance the civil servants from government money. It is now left for the law enforcement agencies like the EFCC to keep watch over our piliticians.

If this woman is allowed a free hand to run the economy the way she has been doing for the past 22 months, I can assure Nigerians that by 2015, there will be massive infrastructural development in all corners of the country as funds won't be a problem.

Very few understands this fact. Even more important is the political will from her boss to do the right thing.

Ever heard of IPPIS or EDMS? I was once involved at consultancy level on a key project implementation for FG and I was thrilled by the quality and clarity of direction coming from the other side of the negotiation table. There are really good people out there, very good people who are even in the civil service who only care about getting the right quality of job done for government.

This is why i insist that GEJ is fighting corruption how it should be fought- deliberate elimination of the contact between giver and receiver. While funny noise makers are busy setting the trap for him so that they will call it witch hunting, he is progressively making it diffucult to spend FG money by putting in the right insitutions.

Let me give you some pointers - our NASS are not getting the kind of cash flow that was happening before now. He is getting opposition from key figures because the money is not flowing. Again, while many believe that few Nigerian governors can withstand fiduciary inducements, Amaechi still have followers even among few PDP governors. If GEJ rolls out Federal bounty, very few governors will stand behind Amaechi. Finally, why do you think you have many newspaper houses reporting their conjectures and why does the Punch never write anything good about GEJ? Because the government has refused to corrupt the press. If you believe that editors of Leadership, Punch, Thisday and Sun newspaper can resist good money and choice plots from the FG, then you can believe that your mother is a man. Do you really think that Sowore of Sahara reporters can withstand the 'persuasions' of the FG? Then think again.

What we have at the helm is a clear eyed set of intellectually driven policy directions. The noise makers make their noise while GEJ led government do the work without drama or press romance.

That will tell you the power of the well oiled ACN propaganda. The same way Buhari and Fashola are the best human beings on earth but Akpabio and Chime are rogues. The same way GEJ is evil and corrupt but Tinubu a saint. The same way Rochas became a wonderful leader just after joining the unregistered APC. The same very way they have 'convinced' the gullible that GEJ is the sole cause of global warming. That same machinery was lent to Amaechi and that is what you see at work in those 'fora'

Have you also noticed that ACN is an ethnic group and Tinubu ownership of major properties in Lagos is no big deal despite the fact that we know him not to be Dangote.

I await the day Punch will publish clear rebuttal of the claims published in that book, sector by sector. That is what fact finders do after such claims in matured democracies.

Starlett: Smart move from Jona's camp to discredit this guy and more importantly, strike division in the APC camp. The use of the phrase "CONSENSUS CANDIDATE" is surely going to breed fireworks!

Bihari will not rule Nigeria again. Full stop. His recent comments on the ongoing govt-led military onslaught against BH has shown his true couloirs as a man that loves his political ambition and sectional interests far more than he loves Nigeria and Nigerians.

Who made the smart move to discredit who when Jona's posters were seen in Ibadan and when Amaechi's posters were seen in Jigawa and Kano?
Politics / Re: Buhari's Presidential Posters Flood Abuja by FrankC3: 7:47pm On Jun 03, 2013
hillsate: Haba GEJ and PDP, have you guys gone this petty?
Guys for your information these posters did not originate from APC neither from Buhari.
The posters are the handy work of GEJ and PDP. The essence is to cause disaffection amongst APC by bringing out the posters with the inscription " APC consensus candidate".
The same guys that were hired by GEJ and PDP to place GEJ's 2015 posters are the same guys that placed that of BUHARI at the same strategic locations.
GEJ is very afraid of 2015. All the political structures he tried building never stood. he couldn't install his candidate for speaker of the house of representatives, his Nigeria Governors Forum candidate lost the chairmanship position, his wife lost plot land in abuja to Turai Yaradua.
Does it now surprise anyone why he is using thugs to threaten Nigerians about 2015?
Does it surprise anyone why he is pushing for automatic ticket for himself as PDP 2015 candidate?
He knows he wont even win PDP primaries!

Read through your writing again. No wonder you are a Buhari supporter. If GEJ campaigne poster appear in Ibadan, it is GEJ that pasted it. If Amaechi's campaign poster appear in Kano, GEJ pasted it. If Buharis's campaign poster appear in Abuja, GEJ posted it. Probably, GEJ posted Barack Obama's campaign picture in last years US election.

You APC kids are really very funny. By the time Anenih start playing his trademark politics come 2015, you will be accusing GEJ of getting your wives and sister pregnant and for being the sole cause of global warming. Imagine Buhari in a campaign poster... Even his Boko Haram will not vote him for refusing to serve in their amnesty committee.

You see, Fashola was a member of a committe that produced a draft constitution that encoded a kind of North-South tenure shift for NGF. The same Fashola has gone to court to challenge the emmergence of a Northern candidate against his own proposal.

Fashola was the head of NGF committee that produced the report that urged FG to remove fuel subsidy. Fashola started speaking 'turenshi' when the subsidy was eventually removed.

Fashola was a member of NGF committee that approved good government tour of States in collaboration with Ministry of Information. The same Fashola does what he knows best when the GGF started and he noticed that the rightful owners of projects will presnt them to the elecorate.

Politics / Re: Fashola Sues Jang Faction Of NGF by FrankC3: 4:11pm On Jun 02, 2013
This is still part of the stuupidity of APC. Ok. Assuming Fashola's gang win the suite, which is not possible, what happens next? 16 governors will say that they are not part of it and coalesce in PDP gov forum. Amaechi retain his opposition followers which will be seen as APC governor's forum and their moves will be countered by the PDP governor's forum. Who wins? Still GEJ. The strategic target is to whittle down the influence of NGF or make align it to Mr President's interests.

For APC kids running around here who believe that it is all about noise making, what exactly is the difference between a divided NGF and a dead NGF? The moment you people supported Amaechi, you killed the body and lose your only executive level buy-in to FG policy directions. Who wins again? GEJ. You people should make less noise and articulate your position. You are presently a pawn in Mr Fix-it's chessboard. No court can ever force FG to recognize an unconstitutional body, so GEJ can still go ahead and recognize Jang's faction by any damn name even if the court rules in Fashola's favor. Who wins again? GEJ.

This is simple political strategy used at SUG level. I wonder how grown up men consider noise more important than scoring real strategic political points. Insulting GEJ from today till thy kingdom come is just what it is-noise. He keep whipping you guys into line.

When people say that you can't easily win a fight against FGN, they know what they are saying.

bobthebuilder99: ^^^^^

You are forgetting that PDP was the only major party until about 3 months ago. It includes EVERYONE and has no ideology.

Nigeria doesn't have two major political parties yet. So any statements you make about makes up the opposition (all of them must be Yorubas, Muslims, or in the diaspora!) are premature.

We will have to wait for the PDP and APC to truly separate from one another (in ideology and in demographics) before we can see who is really on what side.

And like I said, you are fooling yourself if you think the rich (which is 90% of the people on this site) represent the desires of the poor and middle class. There is no country in the world where that is the truth.

While i agree with some of the points raised here, i think election results show how truly the masses think. If you follow fox news on the run up to 2012 US general elections, you will see how Romney won the elections, just like Buhari. To my mind, there is no clear difference in the thinking of both Romney and APC supporters:

Both believe that what a particular section that they consider minority think does not matter.

Both are very noisy in the media. You remember Trump 'revelation'?

Both believe that all they need to win an election is the support of the 'majority blocks', a block that they failed to realise how erroded they have become.

Both also wanted power for the sake of power, no clear alternative solution to existing problems. Romney was even better here because he proposed a tax regime, however faulted, but ACN leader promised us the BH will disappear 3 months into APC government. To strategy was proposed.

Both had the attention of impressionable section of the society.

My point is that real Nigerians don't think GEJ is persecuting Amaechi, they actually think that Amaechi is being used by the 'born to rule people with the collaboration of ACN to distract GEJ'. They like GEJ for his smiles, he calm attitude, his unassuming personality and his story that is similar to theirs. They like him for some things they can relate with and for rail and roads that they observe difference in, something the NL APC folks call 'mediocrity'. Some of them receive 5000NGN for using the FG ante-natal program, something that does not make sense to NL APC commentators. And with the media attack from left, right and center, they think that it is unfair to treat him this way. They actually consider him a victim. And mark my words, before 2015, this feeling will spread. Look at the response to attack by Tinubu's ACN to SOE. Also look at Dino's home page today. Check El-Rufai's facebook page too.
Politics / Re: Are Nairalanders Representative Of Nigerians? by FrankC3: 6:55am On Jun 02, 2013
Look at it this way, about a week to the last Presidential elections in 2011, Buhari won the election by a landslide on nairaland. Less than one week after the NL polls were concluded, the same Buhari lost the real life election by a landslide and GEJ was decleared winner. His most active e-supporters as in 2011 as it is today are SWners and the ONLY State GEJ lost to Ribadu, not even Buhari in the SW was Osun.

What we have here are a band of noise makers, tampered in the act of propaganda and experienced in the trade of betrayal, and that is why their opinion does not count. If you watch the postings here, you will notice how GEJ 'will only win SE and SS votes in 2015' while APC will win the SW and 'North', the 'North of which represent three times the whole of SE+SS votes'. This, they call political sophistication. You will see the result again in 2015.

Look again at Amaechi issue. The very people that need NGF most did not even observe when they killed the body 'because they want to embarrass the President'. Today, GEJ is better positioned to push his policies without bothering about extra layer of challenge from the NGF.

There are many more instances. NL is so detached from reality. Most live in the UK anyway, so it is not unexpected.

And that really shows how smart and politically mature you are. Amaechi 'won' the election and NGF died as a result. Who is the winner here? Thesame GEJ you claim you are trying to stop from being an emperror. Today, the collective bargaining power of NGF is broken and GEJ can now be the emperror if that is what he really wants, and who handed him the spoils? The 'politically sophisticated progressives'!!

Yes, you are right, Mr Fasakin. This is a dress rehearsal of 2015, where you will win a few worthless battles and lose the main war. What I am saying in essence is that you 'progressives' will help GEJ win the 2015 elections effortlessly.

With all the noise comming from the HoR, where exactly have they clawed GEJ? The man has always had in way in all his set targets after much noise, or is are the 'progressives' celebrating the noise despite the outcome? Come last quarter of 2014, PDP will close ranks once again and you will discover how well you have been played. My calculation is that the PDP knows you guys well enough and give you what you will ordinarily kill for - a opportunity to make noise. I am even tempted to believe that the PDP has compromised your ranks and focussed you on chasing shadows.

And if these progressives are this powerful, why not just nominate a Fayemi or an Ajimobi or an Al-Makura as NGF leader. In both cases of NGF leadership and Speakership positions mentioned, you still ensure the leadership of PDP at the helm. Does it mean that you 'progressives' now prefer PDP to members of the 'progressives' or is it part of the outsourcing business you are known for? You see how the same PDP is still the ultimate winner?

Who is reasoning like an ant here? Open your mind to learn about thing bigger than you. And for your information, you don't make any point by insulting anybody. I personally don't do insults. It is for kids and people ligt upstairs who have no point to articulate or are incapable of articulating their position logically or both.

Now, on his destination before his arrest, Suwe can be on his way to heaven for all I care. NDLEA was created to track and stop drug peddlers and they have SOP. They do their jobs by disrupting the movement of the suspected courrier. I use those airports regularly and I have seen other people arrested and later released. A close friend was stripped naked in Rabat on her way to see her friend on suspicion of being a courrier. You could also be stripped naked, searched and detained. The important thing is to ensure that everything is done according to the law establishing the body.

It is even more stuupid for a man arrested on suspicion of drug peddling to make it a media affair. You are not bigger than those arrested by NDLEA before. They even arrested the son of a governor of Jigawa recently and trested him according to the law establishing them, so what make Suwe bigger than NDLEA.

The National Assembly made the law establishing NDLEA. The executive executed the via her NDLEA agency. The judiciary interpretes the law made by the NA and they have said that the NDLEA are right, who are you ib your little village to abuse and insult the judiciary?

If NDLEA pay Baba Suwe, then police will need to pay even those that were arrested, detained and later proven innocent in the court. NCAA will also pay airlines for stopping them from taking off on schedule for any reason. The courts will also pay the accused eact time he is confirmed innocent after judgement. Oni should be paying Fayemi and companies will be paying those that attended their jon interviews but never got the job.

Corruption: Alams pardon, Subsidy fraud
Debt profile increasing
Insecurity

Sir, I am sorry I can't really understand you. Under corruption, you mentioned 2 items. Alams and subsidy fraud. State pardons are meant for criminals, not saints. That you don't like Alams does not mean that the President is corrupt by exercising his powers as President. I will not try to convince you on Alams but I will tell you that the President pardoned Alams in line with the constitution, and as at the time Alams was pardoned, he has served out ALL his prison terms and ALL his loots returned. Stop dancing to popular tone, reason it through yourself. Alams was a PDP man, indicted, sentenced and served out his prison terms and in line with a deal he reached with the FG, he was pardoned after helping the country negotiate an amnesty deal that saved us billions of dollars. My worry is why you are angry at Alams pardon but silent on your party leader, Tinubu whi is also considered corrupt, not yet sentenced, not indicted but at the helm of your political party. Let me ask again, are you really against corruption or against GEJ?

On subsidy, ALL indicted subsidy fraudsters have been charged to court. Now, it is the job of the courts to determine their case and jail them if necessary. GEJ is not Buhari that jails people from the Presidential villa. The executive's job stops at charging those guys to court, if you don't know. You people say too many things that you often confuse yourselves. This is the time to take the pressure to Mrs Aloma. She is the head of the judiciary, not GEJ.

Debt profile is not increasing as you said. It is actually decreasing. Debt profile is determined as a percentage of GDP, not as a whole number. It was actually increasing before GEJ came on board and tamed it. Check the records.

On insecurity, you should be embarrassed to accuse GEJ of this too. You have a handful of crazy folks who want to make Nigeria an Islamic state and force even GEJ to change his religion and you are accusing GEJ? Well, I am not surprised, GEJ caused insecurity because he won the 2011 elections. If Buhari were to be the winner, i guess there will be no BH.

Would you classify YarAdua as a good president? If your answer is yes, then feel free to compare but if your answer is no then saying GEJ government is better than YarÁdua's is not saying much.(E.g my sister scores 150 in Jamb and i score 180, obviously i did better than my sister but you can't say i passed jamb.)
3) I'd never judge the GEJ government on power because i know its not possible for GEJ to fix the power situation in 4 years(You can go through all my post and you'll i've stated GEJ can't fix power in 4 years)
4) Why can't GEJ and his supporters take criticism? You might be happy with mediocre things but please don't judge people based on your low standards.
I don't think you know the meaning of mediocrity and developmental economics. Ok, let me bring it home.

We have two folk, both finished an MBA program in 2011. While Mr. A did his MBA in OAU, Mr. B did his at Standford. As at the time of doing the MBA, Mr. A has 5 years experience with Zenith Bank while Mr. B has 20 years experience with JP Morgan.
2 years after their MBA, Mr. A is a Regional Manager with GT Bank while Mr. B has achieved V.P position at Google.

Do you think it is sensible to call Mr. A's position a mediocre position because of Mr.B's position? If your answer is YES, then i will need you to tell me your definition of mediocrity. This is exactly why GEJ asked you to develop a marking scheme first before marking!!! You get it now?

While being a GT Bank regional manager is a very mediocre position compared to Mr. b's V.P position, it is an achievement based on his experience. And nothing really suggests that if that same guy attends Harvard or same stanford and have same privilege as a caucasian, he will not have a higher position than google VP.

Tell me one aspect of the country's life that has declined since GEJ took over power and back it up with referenced data. If there is none, then he is not 'clueless' after all since it takes some clue to maintain status quo. But if your argument is that there are improvements in these areas but they not as big as you want, then we need to agree that GEJ is making PROGRESS and then look at the possibility of achieving such margin within 2 years in office. Shouting and chanting 'mediocrity' doesn't cut it. You can even show us the bridges Cameron has built since he came to power or the mass housing estates or power plants initiated and finished by Obama in his 5 years in office, or are these guys mediocre too?

To appraise the performance of a leader, you measure particular indices in some sectors today compared to when he took oath of office. All know economic indices look better today than precisely 2 years ago, from inflation to foreign reserve to debt as a percentage of (even not yet rebaselined) GDP to economy outlook comming from key rating agencies who happen not to be either PDP or ACN members to balance of trade indices to ease of doing business indices etc. You can also look at maternal and infant mortality rate in 2011 compared to today, also fiscal stability to corruption perception index to non oil exports to human right to transparency to accountability. Also take a look at power supply in 2011 compared to today, then you look at electoral process and also equal representation of all sections of the country and also FDI. You can also look at aviation, rail and road networks. ALL are better today compared to 2011.

I think the problem with you ACN people is that you took advantage of Lagos based media to make it look as if every thing is in reverse direction. Your party spokesman even made an embarrassing statement that Nigerian economy is in the verge of collapse. Unfortunately for you, facts are sacred. The people you have told how 'clueless' GEJ is are begining to notice the improvements and you are under pressure to make explanations. The tone has changes from 'he has not done anything' to 'he has not done it like the one in London or Manhattan.

GEJ has done and is doing excellently well from ICT to financials to infrastructure to power to even entertainment. By 2015, we'll see who the clueless ones really are. Clinging to areas that may not be precisely measured like corruption will not help you. You people will soon discover how difficult it is to be corrupt. GEJ is a very smart and quiete man.

What people don't seem to understand is that NGF is a collection of equals with a 'leader' who is not in any way greater than others. Two things are important to succeed, one is the recognition by the Presidency and the other is acceptance by colleagues. An Amaechi NGF with less than 95per cent support of colleagues is no NGF. Infact, ACN governors can reject Jang faction but the only difference is the political recognition by the Presidency.
Any serious politician will not run for such an office against his party's wishes. I don't see an Ngige running for Senate Presidency against ACN's position, and with PDP support.
So it is not just about winning or not winning an election by 16 or 19 votes, it is about acceptance by the axis of power. Today, the collective bargaining power of the NGF is destroyed and they have no rallying point anymore. The Presidency may choose to work with Jang's faction and accept her positions as that of NGF and they will lose nothing!!

Politics / Re: Rotimi Amaechi Has Been Suspended From PDP by FrankC3: 7:24pm On May 27, 2013

Please do not compare him with Obasanjo at all. OBJ was like a saint till his second term in office. GEJ has only been there 2 years. Let us just pray he does not turn into something else in the 3rd year. Absolute power is not good for Nigeria.

Oh! Did you just mention that GEJ is in his second year in power? Magical this Amaechi touch really is. When it comes to his achievements in office, you will compare him with OBJ's 8 years in office but you see what Amaechi has done to your mind?

Amaechi's luck is that I am not the President. I would have brought out 6 months and unleash the full weight of my powers on him. He is lucky that GEJ is insisting that PDP deal lawfully with him...

Gbawe:

It is times like this, with high emotions leading to careless utterances, that the clannish and anti-democratic mien of folks like you come to the front. Is PDP not the ruling Party influencing Nigeria at the centre and saddled with the responsibility of setting good examples?

Are you incapable of balanced adult reasoning to the extent you cannot understand that unrest in the PDP has implications for how Nigeria is administered at the centre? Anybody interested in democracy, regardless of Party affiliation, will protest the fundamentally wrong treatment of Amaechi by Nigeria's ruling Party.

You cannot simply wave others away with your usual bullsh1te excuse of "it is a Party affair" while accusing them, like a paranoid delusional person, of being ACN. It is like asking men to ignore a woman being raped in the Street because she is not their wife or daughter. It shows the shallowness of those of you who back GEJ blindly. Inspected fundamentally, you all have no substance and your entire political personality is defined by your sectional support of personalities and not guided by any form of enduring principle.

I have told you red eyed oold foool, @Gbawe that your hypocrisy stinks to high heavens. So you care so much about what happens in PDP more than PDP members themselves? PDP is a political party, with defined rules and regulations including punishment for defaulters. Amaechi defaulted. If Fashola ban ACN members in Lagos State from using State owned venues to hold ACN meetings, what will be your position, @Gbawe?

Your problem is that you dream PDP, eat PDP and are obsessed with PDP, yet you claim you hate the party. If you have headache, you blame PDP. If a terrorist bomb Maiduguri, you blame PDP. If PDP also discipline her member according to her rules and regulations, @Gbawe of ACN will run mad and be shouting all over the internet. What exactly is your problem? You already claim that PDP is bad, spoilt and irredeemable, so if they are wrong in suspending Amaechi, then they are being true to type. The worst is that PDP does not give a fvck about you, so what is your problem?

Amaechi is free from the 'clutch' of PDP now. You love him so much and PDP have abused him long enough. What a good friend does is to rescue Amaechi from PDP to your party where you will treat him with the kind of 'respect' you want for him and not be shouting all over the internet. The last time you shouted like this all over the 'cyberways' was during Sylva and Salami case and we know how both cases ended.

mikeansy:

are you the only one who dont realise that this is the voice of Jacob but the hand of essua

all of Amaechi's traivails runs through the Presidency and even you know that

stop lying to yourself

Why are you so concerned? Most of you are ACN supporters, so why does what happen in PDP, a party you have so demonized bother you, after all they are already evil according to you. PDP in Rivers petitioned NWC. All parties were granted fair hearing and NWC- a body legally empowered to take the decision- decided to suspend Amaechi.

I think ACN folks should rather be happy. This is the time to approach Amaechi and offer him an alternative platform.

baby_123: Gbam! Amaechi will only get more support and sympathy. Let them continue destroying pdp. If they kept quiet and walked away, no one will have known. Now, everyone knows the dictatorship brewing in aso rock, and will react when appropriate.

Amaechi has always gotten sympathy and profound support from ACN/CPC folks even here on nairaland. Nothing really changed. Amaechi has never been more popular than GEJ in Rivers State and will never be. He has just made the remaining part of his regime unnecessarily more difficult. He will be terribly distracted and frustrated. Forces will realign in Rivers State. Even some of his commissioners don't have the liver to fight this battle. He will have to reshuffle his cabinet and be more cautious of his friends, something that he never planned for this time.

You don't poke your fingers into the eyes of a sitting President who happen to belong to the same political party with you as well as your party hierarchy and expect to go unscathed. It is pure foolishness.

Politics / Re: 35 Governors Voted During NGF Election – Fayemi by FrankC3: 1:08pm On May 27, 2013
One thing is clear, however you look at it. If PDP National Secretariat is not comfortable with Amaechi as NGF leader, then it is either Amaechi stand aside and allow another person to lead or NGF dies. Either way, NGF will be kept in the cooler till 2015. Jang will be used to rubbish whatever opposition brings via Amaechi.

PDP as a smart political party does not play child's play. They have since updated their archived with examples from Amaechi and Tambuwal and said 'never again'. They are looking ahead now to bigger challenges while unregistered political party followers cry foul.

Politics / Re: We Have Forgiven Killers Of Our Operatives - SSS DG by FrankC3: 9:13am On May 27, 2013
This is not for nairaland kids hidden away somewhere in Ogbomoso or Kaura-namoda who only hear of SSS or see them with what looks like toy guns, but I must say that anybody who have ever had a brush with those boys knows that any operative must be able to do one thing- never forgive. If fact, when SSS guy, especially those with innocent faces smile at you after an encounter, watch out for a big hit.

It is not that SSS does not want to forgive the men that killed their brothers, they are actually incapable of forgiving them. In fact, 50 years from today, they are still avenging their loss. That is SSS for you.

Politics / Re: Nigeria, Fastest Growing African Country - Jonathan by FrankC3: 7:16am On May 27, 2013
automaticcarzz: Jona the comedian talking again after waking up from his slumber. Declaring Nigeria as the fastest growing economy in Africa when more than 95% of your population don't have 5 hours straight electricity supply per day is laughable.

Hypocrite. Nigeria is not the fastest growing African country but Lagos is the fastest growing 'maga city'.
