None of them, the three are Nigeria politicians and one thing that is common with Nigeria politicians are lies and playing politics with everything within the reach for their own selfish reasons.

Many Nigerians still believe that Buhari doesn't understand politics and so, they don't see him as typical Nigeria politician.

nnokwa042:
igbo word for father is nnam so check around the world what baba means, remember alubosa is borrowed word from arabic

That means Yoruba didn't have word for "father" until Islam was brought to Nigeria. I wonder how Yorubas were referring to their fathers before that. Lol at someone's persistent wrong argument.

genghiskhan007:
Oga, d man in question is not fit to be a lawnaker
A married lawmaker frolicking with hoes, how morally sensible is that?

I agree to that. I'm not supporting him right from my first post.
I only responded to "poverty and illiteracy" stereotypical comment.

nnokwa042:
baba is arabic word or u want to tell me that afonja took islam to arab people?so akeem muyideen tawakalitu muinotu is afonja names abi ?i know the meaning of bukola what is meaning of tawakalitu

There are arabic names and there are Yoruba names just like there are Christian or English names.
I'm asking you to tell me the Yoruba word for "father" since you are so sure that "baba" was a borrowed Arabic word by afonja.
In your local language, you have a word for father. Are you telling me that yoruba didn't have a word for father other than the one you termed arabic? And again, "baba" is not an Arabic word for father.

nnokwa042:
papa and mama is latin word in whole europe is mama only in bretain u can hear mum or mother, but baba that afonja use is arabic words

Mr baboon, IPOB jew. What is the Yoruba name for father if "baba" is an Arabic word?

hemsquare:
Bello is an Italian, Spanish surname from bello 'handsome/beautiful' (Late
Latin bellus), hence a nickname for a handsome man. In medieval Italy
the word was also applied as a personal name, which also gave rise to
the surname.

This didn't explain how it became so popular in Nigeria.

BekeeBuAgbara:
As if the money is from cocoa or groundnut.

Well, the larger percentage of it was from oil. But he said you should start asking your governors, NDDC and Co what have they done with the funds they are getting from the FG. Have you seen any region that was developed by the FG. Your region controlled six years of Jonathan's administration. There wasn't cry of marginalization then, no complaints whatsoever. Because all the roads were repaired and second Niger bridge was constructed. You were even ready to go to war just to make Jonathan win his reelection bid.

Hate speech...Buharis speech today is a quintessential hate speech. A President using words as hot headed to describe youths and irresponsible to describe some elders is highly provocative and inciting.
Its a shame that a man who has spewed more hate speeches that has cost thousands of lives in this contraption called a country is the one admonishing otherwise responsible people about irresponsibility!!!!
Any Igbo man who by now does not realise that Buhari has a pathological hatred and utter disdain for him is an efulefu.
Hitler once held sway, where is he today and where are the Jews he tried to exterminate?
No matter how dark the night is at the appointed time the day will break and the sun shineth forth....
Udo nke Chinese diri anyi nile .....

Those ones are not even deserved to be referred to as elders. They are cowards.

autotrader014:
Because he is a PDP member you did not read it? The level of stupidity Nigerians exhibit is quite alarming...
And yet u made a comment.. ode

That doesn't erase the fact that he's Nigeria number one looters' defender. And a confirmed PDP. So, it is still a political statement to hoodwink people of hate like you.

cosmatika:
Afonjas will soon come here to insult him. But u guys should knw dat weeping endureth but for a night, JOY MUST SURELY COME IN THE MORNING

zombieHUNTER:
The afonja Muslims are already here to defend their Fulani lord and Savior buhari....
A known harbinger of hate and hardship

It took more than afonja Muslims to make Buhari your president. Then, why fixation on afonja Muslims?

Mccollins042:
the north is most dependent on oil in this country.... 90% of privately owned oil wells are owned by northerners, you can research it

No need to research because, that's is the wealth of individuals. That doesn't benefit their masses, the same way the wealth of southerners who own oil Wells doesn't benefit us. Their masses get their daily bread from peasant farming, not from the oil wells own by their elites. And the monthly allocations collected by 36 governors benefited no masses, only few benefit from it.

genghiskhan007:
None of the aforementioned senators were caught on camera lashing a LovePeddler
So just stop this annoying comparison
Tell me one bill that man has sponsored since he came there?
Analysers and Contrasters

That's it. Until you understand the need for my first post, I don't think there is a need for debate.
My first post was in response to the guy who said that it is only poverty and illiteracy that can make his people returning him to the senate.
BTW: keeping someone in the NA requires more than the number of bills he sponsored. It is mainly what he's bringing to the people he represents, how doggedly he fights for their interests and developments. The man in question may not fall into that category but electorates can keep someone in the NA perpetually if they so desire without having anything to do with poverty and illiteracy.

Reference:
See what I say. May you never come here to complain about anything your country is doing against your sanity since you insist on burying this show of shame.

What are you talking about? Did I quote you? Did you see the portion of the comment I highlighted and commented on? If you missed it, go back to reread it and come back to take me up.

Business strategy. I'm not falling for this.

ZKOSOSO:
All thanks to Yobe state, the Poorest and most illiterate State of Nigeria. The Birthplace of Shekau himself.

With poverty and illiteracy u can keep the masses for yourself for life.

Carry go SINactor.......!! Those Olosho-gals are loyal.

Typical educated illiterate, probably from the southern region. Mr ITK.
A senator can remain in the Senate for a long time, if his people believe that he's representing them well in the Senate.
When people keep their representative in the NA for a long time, it is not always because they are poor and/or illiterates.

The bible speaks against polygamy....

The formula is one man, one wife.

1+1=1 in marriage.

If you can prove that 1+1=2, I can also prove that 1+1+1=1.
There are polygamous families in the Bible.

christejames:
She doesn't know that tweeting is also a way of reaching out to the young Americans like her that spend most times of their day on social media...

I wonder what she will do or say if her president (Trump) is like Buhari.

Are you sure you know your president? Buhari, the closest to best thing that ever happened to Nigeria.

UNIZIK1stSon:
These kind of terrible headlines shouldn't appear on days like this. [b]They call us 'Zoo' [/b]even though we are not.



You People have just given the IPOD yoots something to masturbate with.


We Nigerians are 'managing' to celebrate our 57th independence anniversary abeg.


Updated: RIP to the dead

They are also living in the Zoo now.

Namecheckers are very very angry at this shallow reporting

A group of robbers who decided to rob a residential building in Benin city, Edo state – got more than they bargained for after three of them were apprehended by eagle-eyed residents. The robbers penetrated the building after breaking through the wall but were caught by residents few minutes later.

Na neutral territory.

biacan:
Even so their is no need

In our private time, I'm free to grab my wife's as$. I can't say that I didn't do that to my ex-girlfriend. It is not an offence in my opinion and as long as she didn't find it offensive.

biacan:
he doesn't have respect for her.......to have grabbed her that way

If they are in relationship, grabbing is not the issue here but making it public consumption.

MightyHand:
I realize dat 92% comments wit emotion, they fail to take it intoreality: patience nd endurance mustbeinto practice for a union to be successfull, i think some jxt type sth not reasonable/jxt to b funny.
For a man, you need to caution your self evry now nd then once in relationship, ask your parent they will tell hundred of what they had tollorate for each others. I think she over reacted by calling d relationship off due to jxt a slap! if she's realy interested in the union(100%) she would never quit".

Beating your fiance or girlfriend is a bad sign to ladies. They and the people around them would advise them to be careful marrying a man who is beating her when she is yet to become his wife.
If you are already married and you do that, she will have one thousand and one reasons to forgive you and let it go.

laborious:
Now wey she don over pass the test and graduated to dump ur ass she don do bad abi? U ar a Disgrace to manhood

Thank you. I was looking for a comment like this until I saw yours.
When he wanted to slap-test the wife to be, he was definitely hoping for outcome, either forgiveness or break up. He should have prepared for both.

Tbillz:
If you see anybody wey dey price diz fones above,

3. The buyer eye neva tear

Many people are commenting about 512 mb RAM. What about one with 1gb internal memory? Lol

GMbuharii:
Kudos to Shekau

thunda shall locate and penetrate my yanch if u quote me from my anus

Are you afraid of the peoples responses?

CharleyBright:
One Million Dollar Question no one seem to have answer to is; Where do these Boko Haram emerge from to attack and disappear into?
From where do they regroup without being noticed?
They are definitely not ghosts to appear and disaapear at will after wrecking havoc.
Some people are not telling us the truth about these Boko Haram.
They just don't emanate from some thick forest and disappear without being notice.
Those people live amongst communities and are being protected by the communities from which they regroup and attack.
How do they disguise and live freely?
The FG and the Northerners better start looking into the activities of herdmen and start profiling them.
Until the Northerners are sincere with themselves about Boko Haram, the carnage will continue till forever.

Northerners? You mean like they are giving them shelter, food and clothes? It looks like you've forgotten the number of neighbouring countries battling the menace of Boko Haram now.

gists:
If this is true, God bless God bless the brave men of Nigerian Army, God bless PMB for rejuvenating the Nigerian Army.

Compare with the disgraceful headline we used to read " Boko Haram Fighters Chase After Fleeing Nigerian Soldiers " http://saharareporters.com/videos/boko-haram-fighters-chase-after-fleeing-nigerian-soldiers

PDP is a curse that must not happen again.
Never again should we vote on religion or tribal line.

Thank you for reminding wailers the difference between then and now. �

osazsky:
go study your Qur'an or u want me to show u Mohammed teachings

And I can show you the verse that says your religion should be yours. The question is: how many has been forced? Even in Bible, there are many verses which are not just implementable. Spare me that.
