the fact remains that pdp did the paper work for 21yrs, while apc is doing the actual work, efforts are not celebrateted it is results that are celebrateted so apc did it

don't waste your time on those ingrates, even if this govt start building personal houses for them in the SE, they will still tell you that pdp awarded the contract and did all the paper work. they are stucked with the failed pdp cos they love lies and deceit a lot

ThatFairGuy:
Nah. His reason was CORRUPTION

I disagree, Obama just does not like Nigeria like many typical Africans do, Nobody holy pass. His going to Ghana was just to state his bias against Nigeria

ThatFairGuy:
That's good. What's now happening these days? Obama went to Ghana but refused coming to Nigeria. Hope we all still remember his (acclaimed) reason

is the normal beef most typical Africans like Obama have for Nigeria trying to despise our African Giant and most populous black nation status which God has given us, nothing more. If Obama was white, he would have visited just like Bush and Clinton. Trump is anti-African and anti-black so expect no visit.

I'm a Benin man but trust me benin has lost its beauty gradually.
when oshiomole restored it's beauty in 08/09 then this comparison would gain weight as some of these photos are not recent.

also I hate it when people show their state beauty and be posting shop rite and restaurants... that's so wrong.

show us developments, roads, lights, night lights and night life, culture.

You are right I was in Benin late 2018 and it was an eye sore. I wonder what they say obaseki has been doing. Even the GRA is a disappointment.

I grew up in Benin in the 80s and 90s and I am shocked that most buildings I knew way back then I could easily recognized them because no improvement. No wonder oshiomole is like a god there cos the other governors including the current one are successful failures. Too bad for a city that moulded me.

Chinomonkey:
Keep quite kid...Ibadan only has brown roofs and erosion like this

All these small boys wey no dey travel

ddippset:
All these people shouting scamdemic scamdemic upandan if you carry them to one isolation centre and tell them to hug one patient even with 1 million naira they won't agree ooh.

na mumu dem be, they no get liver, sitting down at home and shouting scandemic

babaolofin:
Her kinsmen don't see anything good in whatever PMB does. The name of a Nigerian from North Central was withdrawn and substituted with that woman. If the name of an Ibo man had been substituted with the name of Igalla man or Tiv or Ebira from North Central, nairaland server would have crashed today. There would have been pandemonium on social media. The South East bloc of both Senate and House of Reps would have rejected the decision and made an objection. Various programs on different FM radio stations being anchored by IBOs would have gone on rampage this evening and tomorrow morning.

If I were the man, I will just resign from WTO and seek refuge in another country. This is an injustice. Col Abubakar Umar (rtd) should tell us his stand. This is more than the confirmation of Justice Monica Mensem as Chief Justice of the Appeal Court.

na true you yan o, our brothers from the east are the most touchy and emotional group of people in Nigeria today. fly must not perch at river niger for onitsha, dem go shout till daybreak

FieldMarshall06:
Ah ah. Why do ignoramuses like making noise. Nigeria stands taller than Egypt, in Africa and in the world. Stop displaying your ignorance here.

don't mind them, they always think Nigeria is big for nothing, most Nigerians don't know Nigeria is mid level world power and can wield some good amount of power anywhere anytime.

FarahAideed:
They were out of jobs because the Economy was locked down in 90 days after the Economy opens they will all have their jobs

amen

the 40 million out of jobs nko

SmartchildTutor:
See Egypt ooo..
Seems their historians are on sabbatical.
They seem to be forgetting that NOI is an anointed and medicated daughter of the soil, protected by the star of David.
Egypt has forgotten what Yahweh did to them in the past?
Too bad!
Oh Egypt! Take heed that thou provokest not my daughter, says the Lord.
For if thou raiseth thy tongue against the anointed one of the most high, thy affliction shall rise again. This time around, I shall visit you not with locusts and frogs, but with snakes and monkeys.
Upon thy land shall they devour every treasure.
Thy harvest shall they swallow up, save they be not money.
I, the Lord, the protector of the Lost tribe of Israel has spoken!
Egyptians be warned.

nothing we no go see for this nairaland

Cecegracen:
What Egypt is saying is that it is too late to switch to another person. According to them, it is too late to nominate another person. The nomination was clearly stated for November 2019, which was 6 months ago. I think the fault is from the president who sometimes is slow in decision making. They should have allowed the first nominee to continue. Except they are sure we won't be edged out entirely.

mumu, PMB no get another work to do abi shior

blackboy:
Egypt has a nominee already along that of Benin Republic and I'm sure there has already been celebration in Egypt (the Benin Republic nominee cant beat them) but with Ngozi in the race they know who will win.

I understand their protest and rightly justifiable. I blame the Nigeria FG for not doing the right thing on time.

you guys are funny, shebi NOI na international person wey no need FG nah

Juliusmalema:
Over five months ago and Buhari is submitting it now.

Meaning he reluctantly did so.

na buhari get the blame now abi

seunmsg:
Not so fast. I just read the full story and it appears OBJ actually signed away some parts of the north east to a new country that would be created by UN. I will wait for more details before commenting again.

chai, obj sell this country o, una sure say obj na nigerian?

Collyweed:
Can the Immigration Services start deportation proceedings on Atiku as soon as possible.

guy na your passport and your citizenship you de use style play with o

Golan007:
Oga, dem say make I tell you say na lower Cameroon dey available.
You go manage am like dat abi?

omo this your market too cost o

omo e don red,

It was learnt that before the announcement of the new state, the UN had kept Northern and Southern Cameroons under watch since Obasanjo and Biya signed the documents under the UN treaty.

Bu the way obj de sign off Nigeria, omo na wa o, that man no be am at all. All because he wanted to become UN Secretary General which he never got at the end of the day, smh

I just hope this was not what boko haram was all about

Noel19:
Guy as an Economist and researcher I don't think I should be arguing or debating on international economics with you.

You think WTO is NNPC or Nigerian Immigration where nepotism abounds?

Olusegun Aganga once chaired the WTO ministerial council so kini big deal? We no go hear word again because na NOI abi mr researcher

Noel19:
Okonjo-Iweala currently chairs the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization (GAVI), a public-private global health partnership with the goal of increasing access to immunisation in poor countries.



She also sits on the board of Twitter and is a former managing director (operations) at the World Bank.



On March 7, President Cyril Ramaphosa of South Africa appointed her a member of the country’s economic advisory council.



A month later on April 10, Kristalina Georgieva, the managing director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), named Okonjo-Iweala a member of the fund’s external advisory group.




Okonjo-Iweala is one of the four special envoys appointed by the African Union (AU) on April 12 to mobilise international support for its efforts toward addressing the coronavirus pandemic.

In 2012, she contested to become World Bank president becoming the first female and first black candidate.

She was listed among one of the top 100 most powerful women in the world by Forbes four consecutive times from 2011 to 2014. She was also listed as one of the top 100 most influential people in the world by TIME magazine in 2014.



Guy check her qualifications and achievement above thus far. If I should ask you again, who in Nigeria can favourably compete with her internationally?

Do you know how many Nigerians have headed or are currently heading international organisations out there. You guys don't read, it's only NOI you know. A Nigerian currently head the international civil aviation organization and no one is making noise about that

Noel19:
You see the problem with you Nigerians from your part is too much hatred and bitterness towards a particular tribe.

Her appointment by the south African govt is also a favour towards her?

Her appointment on the board of directors of Twitter is also a favour right?

her appointments were all based on merit. She's an internationally acclaimed technocrat and thus Buhari has no other choice than recommending her appointment.

You guys should grow up from this una naija mentality of thinking this way if not you guys will continue to lag behind.

Buhari had a choice o, after all he withdrew someone else for her, no be so?

seunmsg:
Still the same excuse. If the favored person is Igbo, it’s because he/she is the most qualified for the position in the world. No other person is qualified so the president has no choice. If it is someone from another tribe, it is nepotism.

See, it’s really becoming embarrassing and you guys really need to stop this. Appreciate the wonderful gesture of the president and stop being an ingrate.

They will forever be ingrates cos no one including God can satisfy them even if He gives them the entire world

Noel19:
Okay mention one Nigerian right now

Olusegun Aganga, another of your beloved GeJ ministers and many more

wiseoneking:
Because he got no option since there is no other qualified person around. Ngozi's chances is 100%. He may not be happy doing that but no alternative for him. I pity Bubu and his second tenure. Poor old man.

There will always be alternatives or options, no one is indispensable

Noel19:
Internationally who between the two has the capacity to pull weight and represent Nigeria well?

Be frank and use your intelligence. It's all about international diplomacy. If you're a student of international politics and diplomacy you'll understand this.

Ngozi Okonjo Iweala is known worldwide and for your info Buhari didn't just take the decision alone his advisers might have advised him on the advantage of having such calibre of person in that office.

You guys can never be grateful for anything. Always feeling entitled. Buhari also had the perogative to support someone else. Is okojo the only widely exposed Nigerian internationally?

on top of Trump matter America, how market o

buygala:
See Dem


She wants to ride on #JusticeforUwa to revive her magomago


Next thing you will tell us how you went to confront Mr Biodun for all the earlier rapings, and then he raped you again last week and gave you Mirinda


Busola, abeg rest so we can face Uwa's case squarely ....This period isn't for tales by moonlight

Hypocrites everywhere and you are one of them

Shaky shaky daddy president

America that's becoming a shithole itself

Nigerians are hypocrites, when timi dakolo wife accused the COZA pastor of rape, she was shouted down and made to feel like a list. Seriously ain't moved by all these stuff anymore
