All you have to do is look at the source. teufelein:Need I say more? |

If PMB is not contesting, like someone said I'd rather vote of mama Patience ![]() |
I smell jealousy and hatred. Those states the op compared with Lagos, how many of them face the same challenge that Lagos faces everyday? From population, to land shortage to traffic, to waste management Deal with it. Lagos out shine every other in all areas. It has nothing to do with media. Which media was in Cross Rivers when Duke was there. The truth is Success shines through easily in the midst of mediocre just like light shine through in darkness. |
Mynd44:hahahahahaha Wallahi you should be a comedian. I am convinced you're in the wrong line of business ![]() |
12Monkeys:Pathetic. Very silly excuses Boko Haram still chased Nigerian army to cameroon. How much was spent on amesty that he couldn't save when the country earned the highest revenue ever. As if he was the first to increase he minimum wage. Didn't the OBJ administration also increased wages and still left good saving oil subsidy only became unbearably expensive when the only Ineffectual buffon took over. Which Infrastructure are you referring to? I hope you're not talking about airport remodelling, railways and 25000km of roads. He stabilized the forex yet the dollar was pegged artificailly at N199/$ under his watch. Let us even assume he did all these, the money the country earned was more than enough to do twice what you listed and still have good savings. I can't imagine BH chasing NA to cameroon if the $2b was used appropriately. |
Somebody should help us ask madam if uncle gej the only IB had the political will to save FG's share of the money. Why is madam so concerned about governor's political unwillingness to save their money? Can she tell us as the economic and coordinating minister how FG (which she as part of) demonstrated political willingness to save. After all, we know FG under her guidance borrowed money to pay salaries. |
Khd95:Didn't you get the gist of girl that was given explosive to kill innocent people but instead ran away from the crowd and detonated the explosive - thus killing herself alone? A young girl strapped with explosives and sent to a crowded mosque this week, made a detour and running away to kill only herself. This recent act of bravely by the young girl has added fuel to the belief that Boko Haram are using unwilling captives in its terror campaign in northeast Nigeria. |
Khd95:Who told you they cannot be re-programmed i.e re-brainwashed and re-integrated? How are you sure they don't want to come back home? Let the girls come back home and use their legs to go back to sambisa if they so desire. |
989900:As much as I would have loved to, I'd be very careful with that decision It sends dangerous signals to all. The terrorists will be feel like that is a good negotiating tool. So they may be considering more kidnapping for exchange in future. And there are those evil ones who just want to bring this government down no matter how noble gesture taken and no matter how sincere the government is. Their army of doom will immediately jump on it and say PMB is freeing his BH brothers to advance the islamization agenda. But I agree the girls URGENTLY needs to be reunited with their families. I guess governance is like a "board game" - where all the options are clear and all the options have consequences. May God lead them in making the best choice. |
Izonpikin:Yeah. you are right. Why am I arguing with someone who wants to leave Nigeria yet complains about the choice of Nigerian electoral chief. |
The same reason people are citing to blame PMB is the same excuse they were using to absorb GEJ back then. Nigerians and hypocrisy fueled by bigotry and prejudice. |
Izonpikin:same old fvcking irritating question. Why can't an igbo be governor of lagos even though an igbo man from Imo has not been a governor in Abia. You talk as if we have not had an Igbo man in that position before. Was Maurice Iwu a Fulani man? Must the inec chairman come from a particular region? |
Don't get it twisted lol. If the election were to be repeated today between GEJ and PMB, I will still vote for PMB. I have said it looong before the election that all I want from PMB is restore security and reduce corruption (note I didn't say eliminate). So far he is doing a wonderful job. Although his score is dropping a bit because of the herdsmen attacks and militancy which he hasn't fully addressed. Some of us never expected him to perform magic with the economy. Not after all that has been looted. All those who think PMB has failed are just plain ....... (fill in the gap) You have a government that is short of revenue and is not borrowing recklessly like the other admin just to pay salary. And yet PMB is funding projects everywhere and you guys say he has failed. Is it the GEJ gov. that slashed the budget for the entire ministry of work to N11b. And how on earth can you be singing and dancing because we were told we were the biggest economy in Africa merely after rebasing (recalculated) our economic indices. Although even as at that time, it was obvious that South Africa was and is still better in the other indices. When I said it way back in 2014 in the height of the euphoria of the false status, a UK report came out which kind of support my point: Nigeria Ranked Least Prosperous Nation In The WorldNow that eye don clear. Una now dey blame PMB. For me I will still vote him if there is no better alternatives. And I don't see anyone in pdp right now or in the foreseeable future. |
hmmmm |
Guys, I understand bids for Tbills are done bi-weekly. Is this week a bidding week? I am planning to visit my bank and place some bids if this is the right week. Also, I'll appreciate any hint on the range of rates for the 182 and 364 days tenures. |
Guys, I plan to visit my bank today. Can anyone give me a hint of what the current rates are for 180 and 365 day tenures? Thanks in advance |
Jirate:Yeah right. Kachukwu does not have vision and does not understand the industry. Why should I believe that? |
jenigurl: Tundeiab:Are you people kidding me? Have you guys been living in pluto or something? Which economy was stable in 2015? The Naira was pegged at 199 to a usd before the elections in 2015. As at that time the dollar was selling for like 230 in the black market. Is that a sign of stable econmoy? Knowing the evil that they have caused they told us through aunty Nogzi (NOI) that we should tighten our belt as they slam us with austerity in 2014. To you guys that is a sign of stable economy abi? There was nothing stable about the economy that was handed over to this administration. The more reason some of us have never asked PMB to work miracle. But we ask him to keep his promise on stopping wastages like this (be it muslim or christian pilgrimages). To make matters worse, even though the official rate for the naira was N199/usd, the exchange rate approved for pilgrims to Israel was N160/usd. That was at a time when the parallel market was selling usd for waaayyyy above N200. Yet you fanatics didn't put on your economic cap at that time. So I maintain my point. Though I don't support it as I have clearly stated, I still say it is hypocritical to start crying wolf because it is now Hajj pilgrims. When the same WASTEFUL gesture was extended to christian pilgrims, you were all ok with it. |
First, it is hypocritical to lament about the amount of money being lost because of the subsidy for Hajj pilgrims even though you kept quiet when the Christian pilgrims were also subsidised by the same government last year. But having said that, this government campaigned that they will stop wastages. What better/bigger example of wastage can you think of than subsidizing pilgrimage - be it muslims or christians. The money being used for this purpose will go a long way in solving some of our pressing needs. We should always talk and speak out when the government does something wrong. It is very silly and childish (to say the least) when you speak only when it favour you or while trying to pull down the other. It reminds me of Jibrin and Dogara.

This running-mouth guy still dey talk? I wonder who is listening to this guy |
ikbnice:No. He has been TECHNICALLY killed ![]() Barnawi will soon meet the same fate. I trust the new rejuvenated NA to do justice. "To forgive the terrorist is up to God" .... but it is the job of Nigerian Army to send them to him. |
Good. And about time. Now I am armed with information for wify. First, it was tomatoes, and now rice. She needs to give me some refund after an increase in house allowance. ![]() [size=2pt]Just kidding.[/size] |
What?! So what happens to the souls of all the people killed in this struggle? What happens to all the monies donated? This is a hard core lessons to ordinary men not to be used and dumped by politicians who are only trying to protect their interest while fanning the flames of ethno-religious sentiments for the gullible ones. FACTS: People have died People have donated money and blood to this course Kano's family and that of his fellow leaders are very safe and have not lost a kobo. |
Hello all, I have posted on this thread before. I assume T-bills are much safer than regular stocks and definately safer than money sitting in an account. That is the reason I am not taking a more serious look at Tbill now. I have a very silly question but I hope someoe can tell me if this is possible or even necessary: Suppose i approach my bank (lets say Skye bank) and I buy N2m worth of T-bills. At maturity, is it possible to divest to another bank (say GTB)? Thanks in advance |
God purnish all the budget padders |
I doubt if this story is true. If it is, then the impeachment is looming on the president. But knowing some of our brothers will spread any lie just to prove that this administration is corrupt - in a despirate attempt to suggest that its not only GEJ that is corrupt. I'll take this story serious when their is more proof. Meanwhile, the article no get author. |
CSTR12:Tell that to the dogs. Which part of the post is a lie? is it that you lots weren't complaining of lack or representation in a government that you pull away from? Or that you are not defending the forgery case against the senate deputy president even though you don't want to be part of Nigeria? Or that you didn't ask for Igbo governor of the Nigerian state of Lagos while saying you don't want to be part of Nigerian anymore? |
CSTR12:yeah! We all know that truth hurts and it pains ![]() |
Inconsistency is the trade mark of ipobs. While their is absolutely wrong in Mr Obi's attendance of the Democrats convention, I find it amusing that the same ipobians that have been singing Donald Trump will win is now praising their son for attending the convention of the very opposing party of mr trump. Anyway, we're used to it. From demanding biafra to complaining about lack of representation; they move to defend Ekweremadu in the forgery case even though they desperately want to leave Nigeria. They have even asked why political parties in Lagos have not deemed it fit to fill an Igbo candidate even though they boast they are the majority in Lagos and control virtually everything. Mr. Obi will continue to enjoy himself because he knows most of his keen men (i.e ipobians) are not to be taken seriously. Only Ipobians are miscreants. I have not seen many well-to-do Igbos display such depth of shallowness in mentality |
idupaul:yet you will trade your Nigerian or Biafran passport just to vist Canada -in North America |
olajide21:Don't mind the OP. He also forget about attrocities of the LRA in the "southern" African country of "South" Sudan and the lives that were lost to several xenophobic attacks in "South" Africa don't count. |
