I saw two Igbos in the list.

Tinubu has withdrawn kashim imam as ferma chair.i am so sad

eeetuk:
"Besides, Atiku pointed out that the presentation of a forged certificate disqualifies a candidate for all time, no matter when presented."

Well said Atiku Abubakar!
The Supreme Court of Nigeria has been on the record since March 10, 2017 by saying that "No Room for certificate Forger". I think they have boxed themselves into the corner. And i hope Atiku ABubakar better not help this Supreme court out of their promise. You think they are not going back on their words? But no matter what this Supreme will do, the outcome of its decision will likely do more harm to the institution of judiciary than good. You cannot trust them. Time and time again, the Nigeria Supreme court has shown that they don't care what Nigerian people think of them, but what matters to this court members is tons of money they received in kickbacks. But i thank God the rest of the world is watching the outcome of Atiku Vs Bola ruling. Disqualification of Tinubu is the only way Nigeria judiciary institution can be saved.

Remove tinubu for who to take over

Without apologies, Laycon is very stupid!

If the votes Nigerians gave to him while he was in the BBN house had been rigged in favour of another contestant, would he have achieved victory and relevance with the "wishes and prayers" of his supporting crowd?

Nigerians are calling out the rotten political class as best as they see fit while putting blunt words to the reality on ground and this clown with a drug-induced brain-freeze is now feeling significant enough to invalidate people's concerns.

I don't blame him! Na Nigerian youths wey dey sabi give relevance to louts and misfits cause am!

Tinubu won obi clinton

Why will a Northerner favor a Yoruba man Tinubu and leave his northern brother Atiku.

Because they don't like Atiku

There are 25 years old Nigerians with civil and road transport degree... Even masters some have PhD

Appoint young Nigerians yes but appoint people to their right place

As much as lawyers are intelligent would you allow best lawyer in Nigeria operate you in a hospital?

Ferma chair are usually politicians with no experience in engineering

Shehu Sani is absolutely right on this.if an 80 year old politician can be board chair in an agency he knows nothing about,an engineer deserves to chair ferma board

Former Kaduna lawmaker, Sen Shehu Sani, has applauded the appointment of Imam Ibrahim Kashim-Imam, as the Chairman of the Federal Roads Maintenance Agency (FERMA).

In a statement issued last week Friday evening, presidential spokesman, Ajuri Ngelale, said the appointee is expected to serve for a renewable term of four (4) years, in accordance with Section 2(3) of the FERMA Amendment Act, 2007.

Reacting in a post via his X (formerly Twitter) handle on Monday, Sani said there is nothing wrong with the President appointing the 25-year-old to head the federal agency.

The former Kaduna Central Senator said the state of Federal roads in the country shows that those old people appointed over the years have not merited the position they held.

Sani, therefore, counselled that the youths, and young people should learn to rally around the new FERMA chairman.

He said: “There is nothing wrong with appointing a 25-year-old to head FERMA. Just look at the state of Federal roads in the country and ask yourself if those old people appointed over the years merited the position they held. Young people should learn to rally around their own.”

Honestly, Orji Uzor Kalu has been badly dealt with.

He didn't play his politics well.

Yes,I feel sorry for him.but I'll prefer if he was replaced by izunaso

rolams:
Thanks for the update Barr. fergie001

Yes,he's a material Yola and mubi federal constituencies are apc territory just that the atiku wave caused turbulence in adamawa.again apc was supposed to win adamawa central central seat

I can spend another handful of minutes dissecting all you listed but I have to admit, I'm quite botched. Had the entirety of yesterday proofreading and editing a 30 page document so my senses are in a bit of a drool.

One thing I can tell you for free is, Yemi Cadoso's first policy of lifting import restrictions on 43 items is going to backfire. Fuel price is going to see another clamour for an increase. And the dollar is not going to close the year below 950 naira (this is even being generous).

And by the first quarter of next year, that's when Nigerians will understand the actual dictionary definition of "suffering".

I disagree.this is going to be the toughest period.things will start looking up from the second quarter of 2024 gradually.cardoso policy is good,the banning of those items brought us here.before banning imports,let us be heavily self sufficient and independent not the other way.we need to increase dollar flow while gradually reducing the amount of naira in circulation.

BoldBrainz:
That's if Nigerians survive the next 6 months. I won't be surprised if we enter a recession by the first quarter of next year. The feelers and pointers are glaringly obvious.

We will never enter recession under tinubu.ge might be corrupt but is competent.he has ran businesses successfully unlike buhari,worked under abiola a billionaire,revamped Lagos economy so I don't know what you are looking at.he will reduce borrowing,increase our revenue sources and increase expenditure to critical areas.

BoldBrainz:
Upon this same rock will we gather, and in this very sanctum shall I remind you of this conversation when this conditional cash transfer goes haywire. I'll be very enthusiastic to read what excuses you'll have then to explain things away.

It will not be perfect but will be far better than what you saw under bubu.if things doesn't change for better by 2026,I'll reconsider my support

BoldBrainz:
Over 50 ministers: First in our democratic history.
Thousands of aides so far attached to his appointees. Appropriation for over 350 land cruisers with each worth 160 million naira, being funded with loans. An array of stupendous government expenditures in just 4 months. A host of other executive excesses I cannot list.

Is all of that indicative of a government that recognises the dire situation of the country to you?

Have you seen the proposed 2024 budget? Have you seen the increase in personnel cost? With Buhari we were lamenting for a cut in cost of governance, only for your President to come and increase budgetary allocation with an extra 6 trillion naira. That is outside the supplementary budget he has already submitted to the NASS for the remainder of this year.

But on this end of the divide, the middle class has almost been completely eroded. Another 7million Nigerians have joined the poverty crowd. But we're to sit on our hands and give him time.

Lol.

Appointment of more ministers,aides is not a big issue.the big issue is fixing the economy,power supply,infrastructure,insecurity,corruption, education,health system and the firsr step is to appoint the right people to critical,sensitive positions which tinubu has done.to fix the economy,we cannot reduce expenditure but rather increase expenditure,increase our revenue base,employ more.there is too much poverty that we cannot afford to reduce spending but increased govt coverage.tinubu believes in carrying people along,large government,empowering and rewarding people hence his large govt.nigeria has 200 mil people so the govt must spread it's net extra...

The NSE has made the highest gains ever,tinubu has set up a world class economic team who have started churning out policies to salvage the situation.dele alake is seriously working to macimise and open our solid minerals sector,you can see the hands of tunji in interior ministry.our own owan enoh is familiarizing in the sports sector.betta edu has been super active,churning out various initiatives from this very one to reforming npower,paying backlogs,caring for the IDs,bringing new initiatives.yoi can see what wike is doing in fct,the new policies of CBN gov to strengthen the naira.yoi can see umahi's moves,the tax reforms from taiwo oyedele.yoi can see how the military are routing remnants of Boko and the bandits.give this man time odum..

The plan to buy new vehicles by nass has nothing to do with tinubu please.the legislature is a different arm of govt.our concern is with executive who execute policies

BoldBrainz:
Really garfield?

The indices are looking good? The current Nigerian indices are looking good? Are you actually being fvcking serious right now..😂?

No one was expecting your President to fix Buhari's 8years of idiocy (which I compulsively need remind you that y'all supported while it lasted), in 4 months. But completely destroying and eroding the bit Nigerians had to hold on to, while he and his cronies waltz the country in opulence and extravagance, has to be the height of incompetence and leadership thoughtlessness.

You still don't get it.for tinubu to repair tinubu's rot,he was make difficult choices.theres no easy options please.buhari has never been good economically but tinubu is good at it.give this man at least till January.
The indices are indicators or ratings from rating agencies which clearly said Nigeria economy will rebounce gradually from next year.all hands are on deck to fix the economy.tinubu isn't foolish,he knows Nigerians are most concerned with the economy and when it is fixed,he buys their mind.
How is tinubu wallowing in opulence? Tinubu has been a man of high taste,opulence and wealth long ago so should he now pretend to be poor? So because dangote accepts to join politics for instance,he should hide his wealth? This is ludicrous

fergie001:
That is exactly what he was doing. I only drew his attention that the man is from Rivers. The guy was just trying to be politically correct. At first glance, my head went to Imo because of "Okwudiri". I wanted to even see where he was from in Imo, before I saw PHALGA. When they start sharing the largesse, they don't do so with what you speak.

I will look through it.

Who are these people abeg?

I know Nonye from her Zenith days. What happened to them?

They were among the people tinubu appointed into several agencies.odii is for smedan

BoldBrainz:
Conditional cash transfer schemes in Nigeria are absolutely and irrefutably centered on deceit, thievery and resplendent corruption.

Buhari did it for approximately 4years, how many people did you ever meet who told you they received those monies? They claim they generated a social register to determine the poor families to keep on the payroll, but we all saw how the Minister of Humanitarian affairs became a billionaire off those schemes.

Oga, fi mi le jarey!

A lot received it though there was a lot of diversion.5k was meagre so tinubu is raising it.anyway,the fg has a social register endorsed by world bank and each state has their own

BoldBrainz:
See? Now you're asking me to "sharap"😂. If I decide to dish you a come-back, you'll start playing the victim card.

You sabi the kind person wey I be but you dey always quick find my trouble. If I answer you now, you go still whinge and whine like puppy wey dey lack attention.

Honestly,a lot of Nigerians are in stark poverty and need urgent govt intervention hence that initiative.even in developed countries,govt takes care of a category of poor,aged,jobless people.d

BoldBrainz:
Irrespective of the economic appointments he has made, your president has more information and media aides than the number meant to advise on the economy.

And we're all seeing the results so far.

There's nothing wrong in having many media aides esp as the opposition is strong in the media inorder to tackle any falsehood and also sell or publicize the efforts of the administration.an economy destroyed in 8 years cannot be repaired within 4 months mr.this is commonsense.give him at least a year,the indices are looking good

BoldBrainz:
Oh, now you see the need to respond "maturely"? After using the phrase "talking nonsense as usual" to describe me? Come on garfield, you should know we're both beyond the point where conversational gimmicks go unnoticed.

I know what the thread is about, which in actuality is an embarrassing publicity stunt anyway. Nigeria is collapsing and your President's media aides are uploading propaganda videos of him taking walks to the office, as if that is supposed to fix the litany of problems we have.

Ironically, it was another user who even raised the issue of the economy and Tinubu's unnecessary army of media aides, which I replied. But because you probably always get a hard-on from taking potty shots at me, you settled on my own response to the originating comment. Now I respond in kind and I'm the demon..😂

Niggaaah!!

Opposition floated a propaganda that tinubu is on icu and tinubu floated a video to dispel the news.why are you pained? I told you tinubu has made so much appointments in the economic and financial sector as much as he did in the media aspect,you neglected it

Udumasteve62:
Urchiins will do 2 things now..


1they will avoid this thread like chicken pox

Yes but unfortunately the court will go with csu

BoldBrainz:
It's indeed shameful to see Tinubu replicating the same mistakes Buhari made and even going an extra mile in making the worst of these situations.

This is the same man who was rambunctiously touted as the 21st century incarnate of the mythical King midas of greek folklore, and whose proficiency and expertise at societal leadership was presumably second to none.

Sadly, like Midas himself, Tinubu's perceived poetic gift has infamously become the curse that's putting Nigeria on her knees and further headed to the dark recess of cold and irreversible doldrums.

Tinubu simply upgraded and modified it na from 1 mil to 15 mil beneficiaries.guy,some people are so poor that they need govt support so sharap

BoldBrainz:
That's the problem with some of you.

You happen on a thread and without bothering to follow the timeline of comments, you quote a random comment and launch your puerile attacks.

There are days you come on nairaland and drop comments like someone who has absolute command of his senses. Other days you just saunter in and yammer like an habitual drunk who's forgotten the path to his bedroom.

I'll ignore the insults maturely unlike you.the thread is about tinubu and his trek to his office not the economy.a sensible person will not mix things up.concerning the economic aspect,I answered you still yet you keep rambling.

fergie001:
You know like I do that appointments are done by geographic balancing irrespective what the person speaks or not.

The Hausa man will identify with his Zone, irrespective of his language, won't he?


I will follow up that case, I have completely left it lying fallow.... Imagine.

People are following appointment online based on tribe.they want to see igbotic names not minding where they are from...

Suswam complained of irregularities but the judges went ahead to recollate.he called 8 witnesses without any being from the unit.he presented documentary evidence without oral linkage and his lawyers conceded to this citing the EA2022..

You haven't told me where odii and nonye are from

fergie001:
It will be good to stop this thing you want to start now.... Everything must not be seen from APC PDP & Party.

Are appointments done by tribes, language, ethnicity or geopolitical zone?

It's not just Rivers Igbo, tell Wike that? It's Akwa Ibom Adamawa.

At least it is an Igbo speaking person.it is just like appointing an Hausa from ne or NC...

The judge has reserved ruling in udende vs suswam.udende's appeal look solid.tje tribunal judges went beyond suswan sole prayers to become an inquisition

BoldBrainz:
And instead of Tinubu appointing financial and economic experts to face the collapsing economy, he's appointing more media aides to counter propaganda with more propaganda, abi?

Same nonsense Buhari spent 8years doing until he put us on our knees, is what Tinubu is continuing and that's fine by you?

Why digressing? We are talking of the propaganda about his health and how he is countering it and your talking nonsense as usual? By the way, tinubu has appointed as much economic experts to tackle the ailing sector

fergie001:
He hails from PHALGA, Rivers State.

He is still Igbo,rivers Igbo...where is Charles odii of smedan and nonye ayeni from?

When is the judgment for ohere vs akpoti

BoldBrainz:
The propaganda machinery obviously matters more to the APC government than the state of the economy.

But opposition started a propaganda that tinubu is on life support

BluntCrazeMan:
I am not doubting the glitch again.
Overestimation and underestimation can always happen.
Over-crowding can always happen.
System failure can always happen..


But the upcoming 11th-November election will test this theory of glitches.

The three elections are not massive enough to cause any glitch..
So, our attention is on them too..

As we continue to fix anything and everything fixable.
..
..
WE NEED THE INEC TO REALLY PERFECT THE
ART AND SCIENCE OF INSTANTLY UPLOADING THE RESULTS TO THE IREV RIGHT FROM THE POLLING-UNITS,, EVEN BEFORE THE OFFICERS START TO LEAVE THE POLLING UNITS.. --- THAT WAS WHAT THEY PROMISED..

AND THAT IS WHAT THEY ARE PROMISING AGAIN..

BUT WE HAVE ALREADY LEARNT NOT TO TRUST THEM ANY LONGER..


EVEN IF THEY CANNOT EXTENDED THE UPLOADING OF RESULTS TO THE COLLATED RESULTS FROM THE VARIOUS COLLATION-CENTERS,, WE CAN CONTINUE TO BEAR WITH THEM,, EVEN THOUGH THAT WOULD BE THE BEST THING TO DO FOR THE SAKE OF TRANSPARENCY OF THE COLLATED RESULTS.

I agree

BluntCrazeMan:
Of course naa.
That's what they want us to believe..


So that they can br uploading the results any time they like,, even after 7-months of conducting the elections.

I need you to understand something.irev was introduced during the staggered,off season elections to transmit results real time or almost real time to irev or inec server.it worked perfectly well during isolated elections in Edo,osun,ondo,ekiti.but inec overestimated the system or neglected to configure the presidential system and it couldn't handle the load or traffic hence the glitch or network error.
Take note that whenever any agency or organisation opens it's server for registration or application on a national scale,the server usually misbehaves on the first day.this is general.how much more inec?
