The present Government is very capable of doing this, so why all the noise?
even if they decide to go ahead with it. supporters would spring up and justify it, i know some nairaland
member that would support it with their blood

How much dose a bricklayer earn in nigeria? Is it 500 naira a day? (Correct me if am wrong) but a common bricklayer here in the UK earns on average a 100 pounds a day.

Bros, A brick layer in Nigeria earns average 75,000 - 80,000 monthly
A Vulcanizer in a busy street earns N120,000 - N150, 000 monthly
A Good mechanic wouldnt go home everyday with anything less than 7,500 - 10,000

looking forward to hearing Buhari's comment on this guy's Death

^^^^

I thought most of the existing banks are the onees that have signed up to run the Islamic bank thing.
Stanbic IBTC, UBA and co, do they have to start looking for another Minimum Capital base?

^^^ idiats!!!, especially having it in the back of his mind we voted him in, even with the glaring evidence of his incompetence

Guys let Mr. President be, He has priorities
at the moment, lets allow him settle the tenure elongation thing first,

@ Op, why paste pictures from the web and give us a long definition and theory of Windows,
It would be nice if you post Pictures of your works at least before you assemble them in the building,
this would give a better representation of your handwork and build our confidence.

I am baffled. let me ask this Over-intelligent Nairalanders, especially the Okada rider,
If you were there as a representative what questions would you have posed especially as it concerns Islamic Banking
after all the explanations he gave and points raised.
I also watched the bunch of House members making a fuss about not given the opportunity to ask questions and was appalled
Rep. Ekwunife went ahead asking why the name cannot be changed from Islamic banking to something else
Sanusi didn't avoid any questions, he wasn't just allowed to take any question by the elected House leadership.

About Anambra State denying anything, So you believe Sanusi just picked on only Anambra of all States to buttress a a point,
You just believe a Denial coming from a goofy Peter Obi and his girlfriend Ekwunife.?*SMH*
dont forget Sanusi has on several occasions stuck to his guns even in the face of threats from the Senate and presidency.
He even swore on National TV to resign his position once if the senate would prove he was fabricating figures.
Lets not be sentimental about this, Sanusi is one of the best minds this country has to offer, we cant take that away from him,

^^^ My brother is that the last prize? i dont mind one of these IDF toys

Minimum Wage, 40% hoping the Govt. wont have to owe salaries for extended periods

For the rest?: If his marks are any lower than it currently is, it would fall off the bottom of this my PC screen.

Unfortunately i just bought this same specs from Park and shop so expensive last week
i wish this thread was opened earlier
whats your contact just in case.

I just read he made Nkiru Sylvanus Special Adviser to Governor on Lagos Matters? what is that supposed to mean??

This is a prophecy i wish would come to pass very soon. because it's obvious this is the only solution Nigeria needs at the moment

A lot of i.diots here on Nairaland still think Jonathan has something to offer even with a clear evidence the country is falling apart and crumbling
barely two months into his tenure.

Do we still have PDP in Lagos State?

the same guys that were commended for crushing the Boko touts onslaught earlier, now are being hung out to dry.
Nigeria we hail thee!! A country  led by a clueless being that surrounds himself with equally clueless advisers and service chiefs.

i think its high time they turned the streets of Lagos to Rice farms

djustice:
In terms of merit sef, is the appointment really meritorious, to appoint someone who was just one out of 1500 Goldman Sachs "Managing Directors" worldwide, and one of 75 in the UK. He was basically no better than a department manager at say, GT Bank PLC in terms of hierarchy, not a director in the sense we understand it in Nigeria.

His budget for 2011 is an unmitigated disaster, and he clearly clueless about national level financial management.

Agreed, I had high hopes for Nigeria after hearing him during on his initial ministerial screening sometime last year.
My Disappointment crept in after he failed to support Sanusi during the 25% budget saga. He chickened out blabbing bullsh--t, while Sanusi stood on his word even after the senators threatened fire and brimstone.
I hold Lagos in high esteem, I am deeply embarrassed, knowing that this guy represents Lagos state

I am very sure that Shell must have fulfilled their part of the agreement, The community and local Govt, state leaders should account for the money paid.
this isn't uncommon in the Niger Delta. Corruption brewing amongst Niger Delta leaders is an incurable plague.

Let's hope the project would be completed,

12 ministers, back to their Old jobs, this is CHANGE!!

koyaabj:
Eyaaaaaaaaa the man has become an ex-convict, he can no longer hold any appointment, see wetin sturborn head lead the man into, sorry oooooooo

As long as he joins PDP, he would be given a clean bill to seek office,

Gov. Amaechi says he has 500 mega watts lying idle in Port-harcourt.
The problem isn't the Generation, it's the distribution.

i dont like the indomie carton foot mat

snowdrops:
Perhaps thats the intention of the criminals. To make Jonathan look incompetent so that a northerner would come in to become president.

Jona is well known to be Incompetent, we dont need Boko haram to prove it,

, One Hungry unpopular group from God knows where decides to confront el-rufai revelations
and the thread topic reads GEJ replies Elufai.

Remi Tinubu is being bred for that role,

PDP RIGGED GOVERNORSHIP ELECTION IN ABIA STATE
Although the governorship elections have come and gone and winners emerged from different directions, party members have continued to live with the memories of what transpired. Two chieftains of All Nigerian Peoples Party(ANPP) in the Abia State, Elder Kasidy Agbai and the party governorship candidate during the polls, Chief Anagha Ndukwo Anagha poured out their hearts during an interview.
First to speak was Agbai, the Chairman, who spoke without fear or favour over issues concerning the election.
Agbai who was close to tears as he poured out his heart said that he has seen many elections in his life time, but none can be compared to this April 2011 general elections in terms of atrocity. He stopped at intervals to take a breath and then continued in a manner reminiscent of a woman that has been robbed and raped.

Then, he lamented thus: “they carried all the papers and declared themselves winners. Well, it is only God that judges the activities of all men. God is there to judge them. One would have expected a reasonable cheating or rigging, but it was massive, massive, contradicting all electoral acts.” Then Agbai went further and stated ; “They originally planned to make Abians poor so that they can govern us as they like.

“You can see what happened in Owerri. Because there are so many wealthy and educated people there , and the governor found it very difficult to rig or behave any how. But here in Abia, majority of us are poor. A few people took the allocation of the state to their own private coffers. Today, ask any Abian to come out and they will not, as they are weighed down by poverty . That is why we have a weak opposition. If it is in terms of money, we don’t have it. But there are a lot of people behind us. They don’t have the money to bring out to fight the evils in the state.”

Elder Agbai said he came to tell that a lot of things went wrong in all areas during the elections. “It was not an election. The military and other security men were after the opposition. Even from the result they are showing, you will find out that the whole thing was a sham. We have been gathering information because we are going to challenge their activities in the Court. Where things that looked like elections were done, it started very late, there were falsification of results, snatching of ballot boxes.

“The INEC rules were not followed and INEC knew it , but connived with them to rig the polls in Abia state. INEC rules said that after election, votes should be counted after which result should be pasted. Did you see anywhere that results were pasted through out the election? The procedure of conducting an election was not followed. There was no true accreditation. People were accredited after that a few people came to vote .
“They tried their best because they have the power and they can bully people anyhow. But I know that it will not continue that way for ever. Some of our members who were arrested were taken to some distant places after the election and were asked to go.

We wrote a petition to INEC in the first election and there was no reply. We even called for the removal of the Resident Electoral Commissioner, Barr. Austin Okojie, because of his role during the first election and it didn’t gather any water. Some of these things we are doing is just because we have to talk, and when we do , they do what ever they like. They can do anything they like today, but they will not continue for ever. Yesterday, it was another party but today, it is PDP. But I know that God is watching whatever anybody is doing. They are asking us to go to the main stream, have we not been at the mainstream? What have they done for us other than living in this tattered environment. It is not a question of being in the main stream , it is a question of who is leading the people. Who is the authority?

“Fashola in Lagos is not in the main stream, but you can see the beauty of Lagos since he came to power. We don’t all have to belong to PDP in order to have a good government. It is a matter of who is in charge. Forcing a candidate on Abians is evil. But we are waiting on them. This is the last chance he has. If he couldn’t play well in the first half, I don’t think that this second half he will do anything different .

“All Abians are calling for a change from the Government in power, but that has not happened because there was a lot of intimidation and bullying. Go to the streets, all that everybody is talking is about a change, and they are holding us down , forcing their evil rules on the people. What baffles most of us is that they still come up on air to talk about God and their deserved victory, a people without the slightest sign of virtue in them . They carried all the papers and declares themselves winners, well it is only God who judges the activities of all men. God is there always to judge them.

The Bible says that the heart is so terribly wicked, who can know it except God. One would have expected a reasonable cheating or rigging, but it was massive, contradicting all the electoral acts , from A-Z. Even if you look at the result sheets , you can not read out anything from it. They were so faint as if the people handling them were primary school children. You can not read them. You can not photocopy them. There was no organization of anything because they know that what they are showing you is not the real one, and probably the one they will keep to themselves will be. The one that will be clear. It needs nobody to start overflogging issues. Anybody that stays in Abia knows that the result is fake.

“Only those from that circle of family. My message to Abia electorate is that they should be patient and that if we can not get it through the ballot papers, we can enter into prayer and get it through another means, which may be the Court. But if the courts disappoint us, we will start a fresh arrangement. Already, we are talking, managing ourselves to come up better than we are. We are going to build up a stronger opposition come 2015. It is not going to be easy. Abians will free themselves from the shackles of this wrong governance. There must be a change .

“We can’t continue turning it into father and son, son and father and mother, no. It is a wrong system of governance. We must lift up our selves and say this is actually what we want. Everybody in Abia is tired but they don’t have the courage to join the opposition because they have been so impoverished.Their original plan was to make Abians poor so as to govern for life. The Bible says that the love of money is the root of all evil. People joined them because they want to have something to eat and drink, even when they are seeing the evils with their eyes. They will still be praising them, that they are doing well.

“At the polling units, they were standing by, giving people one thousand and five hundred naira only, sharing rice. The security people were there, and turned their eyes the other way. And things were going wrong. The security men would have at least maintained the integrity attached to their profession.What has happened is a question of people in authority, the incumbent in power, using force and the military to divert the heart of men away from their desire. On the day of election, you would see the PDP men driving about , but once you are in opposition and they know that, you are in trouble.

“We have invited you here because we have not been heard. We have been talking, but no one has reported it, and so we asked you to come to see whether you will report our own side of the experience. If Abians should allow this to stay, Abia will be doomed for the next four years. “It is a terrible thing that a government that has not been elected can force themselves on the people. Abians should start crying because they are in trouble. There is no where to start and there is no where to stop in this matter. Today, the people celebrating everywhere are the PDP people. Abia had been desiring for a change and if that change had come, there would have been true celebration all over Abia.

“We in ANPP believe that God has desired a change in Abia. If God had allowed this to happen, we are watching , and praying that may God come to the rescue of the Abia man. If we had one hundred people that are supposed to come out for election and they did not come out and only fifty four people come out, it simply means that whoever that has been elected was not elected by the majority of the people , but has been manipulated into office. Manipulating somebody into an office means that we may not have the real person in that office .And this means that the manipulators may be somewhere calling the shorts.

The same manipulators may manipulate the person out of office, and the same manipulators may not allow the person to function effectively, because from the confessions of our governor, he may think that he is coming to do better and do well , but the truth is that the manipulators may not even allow him to do whatever he has promised to do.

We feel that the manipulators should have allowed the Abia electorate to deicide if they will continue to go along with the incumbent governor or to make a change. Collaborating what the state chairman said on the conduct of the election, Arch. Ndukwo Anagha said that the type of rigging that was carried out by the government in power in the state was unprecedented.

“All we are saying is that there is the need for a rerun election in Abia State so that Abia can now say that that they have elected their own governor. If you take a look at what happened at the polling units, you will discover that there was no place where you had up to 200 people voting, yet they still had scores ranging from 500 recorded for the PDP. In Aba , you heard of places where there was no voting yet results were declared in favour of PDP. It was fraud, Anagha stated.

This Guy would be back in PDP next week.
