[size=16pt]Maybe Aregbesola intends to finance Osun's budget withe loans, loans and more loans. Remember, 2014 is an election year for Osun[/size]

OP, you spoke the whole truth and nothing but the truth

[size=20pt]Fake News[/size]

.

[size=14pt]OP, you are on your own trying to link this incidence with economic growth on paper blah blah blah. . .

This is Naija! not Tunisia. Was he the only Nigerian facing hardship? This is not the best way to end it if actually he did this to himself. [/size]

[size=14pt]Hello PM News,

the budget is for Federal Ministry of Aviation (not for Princess Stella Oduah)

Opposition and some sections of the media are obviously going mental with their hate campaign on some federal office holders.[/size]

[size=14pt]For me, it's Stephen Okechukwu Keshi. Apart from breaking a 20yr jinx by winning the Nation's Cup and later qualifying Nigeria for the 2014 world cup in Brazil, the guy did save football loving Nigerians high blood pressure and heart attack by silently grooming a good Super Eagles team.

At least for once in a long while we watched matches involving Nigeria with confidence. God bless Keshi. God bless GEJ also as his oga at the top[/size]


Some Nigerians that have also been in the news include

1) Goodluck Jonathan

2) Akinwunmi Adesina

3) Rotimi Ameachi

4) Aliko Dangote

5) Saunusi Lamido Sanusi

6) Aminu Tambuwal

7) Ibrahim Shekau (of Boko Haram)

Godswill Akpabio

9) Chief Obiano (new Anambra governor)

10) Raji Fashola

11) Okonjo Iweala

12) Mo Abudu

Longeria: [size=16pt]The new trend in Nigerian politics is to join opposition, you automatically becomes a progressive no matter how corrupt you are, all your sins are forgiven. [/size]
LABARAN MAKU

Has anyone also noticed the favourable news coverage PUNCH and others are now giving to Ameachi, Wamakko, Kwakwanso and Nyako these days? No day passes without a favourable story about one of them in PUNCH. Whoever doubts me can check their website now.

jmaine: "[size=16pt]There is an intentional political blockage of the media towards the FG,[/size] a reason why the information ministry has decided to use medium such as the good government tours, monthly media briefing like what is happening now and other measures to push information."

That is the main problem. Our media is so ooo mischievous. There is a lot of developmental projects going on across Nigeria but our biased PUNCH, The Nation etc will concentrate on only the negative side for political reasons. Somehow, I am happy Nigerians are gradually knowing the truth.

bloggernaija: This aribisala is full of SHITT.
A bad mascot for true journalism and a
mediocre article for mediocre people.
Spit spit
Going back to reddit to check on the more important stuffs happening elsewhere.

Oga, you may [size=16pt]go and die[/size]

OBJ the Navigator according to Tinubu.
He he he he he I dey laugh oh. . .

doc sholz: I think it's generally bad in d sw, I might be wrong though

Mention your location and say the power situation. Stop generalising or do you live in all of South West?

.

Sincere 9gerian: So up to 1.2 million people voted in a local govt election conducted in a state under state of emergency? Compare with the last Anambra gubernatorial election where only about 500,000 voted. From all indications, what happened in Yobe was rigging par excellence. Is this the new Nigeria as envisaged by APC? A country where elections are shamelessly rigged? Never! Nigeria has moved beyond that. Nigerians say God forbid APC at the national level.

[size=16pt]
The APC PUNCH declined telling us about the turnout (whether low or high). It's unbelievable that 1.2 million people will turn out to vote in a local govt election of a Boko Haram ravaged state like Yobe.[/size]

atlwireles: Free and fair, as APC are Victors today.

[size=16pt]Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha . . . their media team including PUNCH and others that cannot even spot the location of Yobe state on Nigerian map will try to justify it as free and fair. But when they lose, Mimiko rigged it or Peter Obi, PDP rigged it. Bunch of hypocrites. [/size]

[size=16pt]Ameachi is such a shameless liar[/size]

[size=16pt]Ameachi is living in a fools paradise. He will lose that Rivers state to PDP in a most free and fair election.

Ameachi is just afraid of the future[/size]

[size=16pt]Is your list in hyrachical order? Then I think the top three should be this:

1) Stephen Keshi (for breaking a two decade jinx for Nigerian football)

2) Akinwunmi Adesina (Apart from Forbes awarding him Africa's person of the year, the current revolution in the agric sector despite very heavy flooding last year is just so obvious)

3) Aliko Dangote (That he remains Africa's richest man alone means he requires no introduction)[/size]

[size=16pt]Hahahahahaha. . . Ribadu's reputation keeps crashing by the day. Who are the Nigerians Ribadu is talking about? Is APC now the Nigerians?[/size]

Pukkah: Nigeria!

A country where everything happens and nothing happens!

I blame the docile people more than the wicked thieving leaders.

Some of those people will soon be here to support the Governor or murky the waters.

Shut your stinking mouth! You may go and die! Your beloved Aregbesola awarded a multi billion naira laptop contract to his son and most of you were coming out here to defend it.

Bloody hypocrites! The moment Akpabio Decamps to APC you guys will start praising him to high heavens. Shameless buffoons.

Hypocrites APC and their. Keep bad mouthing Akpabio while Akwa Ibom state keep waxing stronger.

The tone of this article alone reveals those behind it

OAM4J: We all know it is not an easy job, but someone has to do the hard job. Ignoring it is postponing the evil days. Government have to be be decisive in addressing this imbalance. Either way you look at it is not in favour of FG to ignore it. If they do something about it people will complain of the immediate hardship but will appreciate the results later, but if they ignore it and keep spending less on capital developments, people will complain both now and in the future of lack of performance. You have to accept it, there is very little development Government can achieve with the current budget.

[size=16pt]The bolded refers, truth is, no govt makes such bold reforms in its first term. Opposition will use propaganda to bring you down eventhough noble and no President wants that. That is why a few of the reforms during OBJ were all done in his second term.

Take the issue of fuel subsidy removal last year when a crowd of Lagosians trooped out to occupy Ojota due largely to inciting propaganda from opposition. No govt will plunge itself into labour crisis and mass revolt barely a year to the next election. Have you asked yourself why Fashola did not ban Okada in his first term?[/size]

4 Play: Cutting recurrent expenditure is something everyone claims they will like to do but no one actually does. The main component of recurrent expenditure is personnel costs it seems. Every union strike, be it ASUU or medical doctors, is supported by populists. How can you be against high recurrent expenditure but in favour of public sector wage hikes which benefit the few at the expense of the many? Aso Rock food budget and the plane purchases should be scrapped but these barely make a dent.

In the US, the opposition will propose a rival budget which will give people an idea of how they intend to actualise their stance. Nothing is proposed here as an alternative other than vacuous point scoring.

Quite an intelligent post dude.

[size=16pt]Hahahaha. . . so, suddenly Kwakwanso, Wamakko and other PDP renegades are now the toast of APC media? Back to the point anyway

1) State govt's are much smaller units with much less workforce and responsibility than FG. Apart from the huge civil service, just check out the huge military and paramilitary personnel (Army, Civil Defence, Navy, Police, Airforce, Customs, Immigration etc)

2) Not only Kwakwanso, almost all states have budget ratios tilted in favour of Capital.

3) Somebody just compared it with 2006 but forgot that a major upward review of minimum wage of close to 200% was done in 2011 and therefore the recurrent vs capital percentages cannot remain the same again

4) It will take a while to stabilise again. I remember last year after the fuel price hike, inflation rose upto 16% but now it has dropped low to a single digit of 7%

5) This govt parades some of the best Economists in the land. It's funny atimes when some mumus who know nothing about the workings of govt come here to display your ignorance

6) Besides, some of you came out here supporting a pay rise for ASUU even when we all know our Universities lecturers are already living large. You did that just to sabotage the GEJ but forgot to know that you can never eat your cake and have.[/size]

redcliff: Akinsulire Street, Aguda needs total rehab pls..

[size=16pt]
The minister is talking about Federal expressways. Meet Fashola for that street you mentioned.

We've never had it so good in road construction. Thank you GEJ. Just hope the tempo will be sustained[/size]

[size=16pt]All US presidents pay for their food? Oh really? See what hate is causing you? Must you join Liar Muhammed in telling lies before driving home your point?

You are a big mugu to even think that the figure you see on the budget yearly is spent on Mr & Mrs GEJ and their children.

Or you expect Nigerian President to spend personal resources feeding visiting Heads of States, local and foreign delegations that visit him daily?[/size]

The coming together of those blood tasty terrorists we see now in APC is a pointer

[size=20pt]@OP
Tell that to the dogs.[/size]

[size=16pt]Merry Xmas to all political friends and foes. God bless you all.
My political fight and quarrel with everyone is hereby temporarily suspended.[/size]

[size=16pt]It's 2yrs remembrance.
May their soul rest in perfect peace, Amen.[/size]

SLIDE waxie: Like i said, the president dnt av to be all knwing or brilliant. So far he has himself sorrounded by sensible people.

Many people have been wondering why the wealth was concentrated in a some place. Growing economy, wretched masses, wrongest infrastructure!

Check out this brilliant comment form a brilliant man

that's all!

U all think ur okonjo is brilliant? She needs a lesson from brilliant people!

[size=16pt]And you think you make sense? ASUU went on strike agitating for higher pay and you buffoons were here supporting them.

You cannot eat your cake and have it. Fed Govt's revenue is fairly constant at 4.6 trillion naira and the more higher wages are approved for civil servants such as ASUU etc the less the amount available for capital expenditure. It's not rocket science [/size]
