good one and a good piece for history, but that kebbi former governor who is now a senator elect is surely one of those enjoying this country at the fullest, imagine after taking the oath of Governor thrice you are now a senator, haba na only him waka come?

Thanks to the amendment of the constitution by PMB on those who complete their former bosses' tenure as Governor and President to only seek for re-election just once. Something stills need to be done though in the constitution for Governors making the senate a retirement center.

Rossikk:
I do. I also know that you should be demanding that your leader sit at home with you. Not gallivanting around the world in first class luxury while you do the leg work in Nigeria. When will Igbos produce a REAL leader? One that will say, ''I am not going anywhere. If una like make una kill me here.'' OBJ did it. He was here and Abacha jailed him. He came out looking like a stick. He could have run to London or US. But he didn't. That's a real leader. Awo same thing. He stayed here and suffered jail sentences. With Igbo leaders, the slightest problem, na aeroplane.

mhen you finish work here, but will they ever listen? They will never but blame others for their misfortune.

But before them he can declare the elections inconclusive and call for fresh ones

chai, too many ignoramus in this forum

that school don die be that o!

OfoIgbo:
I am not fooled by this judgement. This is just a ploy by the acting CJN to make him appear fair, so that he will remain as the CJN and possibly be allowed to sit in judgement on the case that Atiku will eventually bring to the supreme court. This is where he will do his hatchet job of awarding Buhari the legal victory, that will authenticate his presidency.


I hope PDP strategists are deft enough to follow my logic on this. This is just a game plan. Award PDP a state, and give APC the country, while at the same time, making the acting CJN seem straight-forward. Don't fall for this oldest trick in the book

even if atiku win in the court, you guys will still come up with another theory na wa for una

does it matter who clears the road, all we need is a solution please. We need to grow up in this country

Always fighting to take credit even when a borehole is commissioned, rubbish

Buckubuck:
This is not true. Jonathan runs a foundation. He also leads AU election monitoring teams in different countries most recent of it was south Africa Abdulsalami on the other hand is chairman of National Peace Committee and runs a chain of businesses one of which is known as Maizube farms
It's predecessor not whatever you wrote up there

that no be work bruv and does not add any value even to bayelsa. Gej should also take osinbajo's advice, use your influence to improve social economic programs in your local community but alas as someone earlier has said, you don't expect looters and criminals who made away with so much funds while in office to think that way

gidgiddy:
Probably the same reason why you Nigerians want to die on top of Biafran matter.



Really? So if Buhari presents Nnamdi Kanu as his successor in 2023, Kanu will become next president?

Buhari's electoral value is already gone. The only thing the North are interested in is keeping power. How will Buhari convince the North to forget a Northerner and go for a Southerner? Not possible

you said the same thing before 2019 elections, relax jor

all these unpopular analysts making assumptions for 2023.

Uncle femi, we sight you. So you are now tired of PMB after all your rants still you could not overcome, the vp is now your object of attack after failing with PMB, Uncle, you will surely fail again cos you are not God

Nigerians love lies and they will continue to be fed with lies

This woman is just too immature....She is supposed to be a special assistant or something to the president....Its quite unfortunate.
I very much doubt her mental stability.

but when reno and co runs their mouth, they are very stable abi

pazienza:
SW is not South. You killed that when you decided to pitch you tent with the North in 2015, against a Southern presidential candidate. You will reap in 2023, the seed you sowed in 2015. It's as simple as that.

How exactly did APC win 40% of SS votes in the last election?

A Northern Candidate in PDP makes a whole lot of difference to the outcome of APC Yoruba president. Yorubas have burnt all good will you lots have, worst still your 2023 ambition is one borne out of greed, seeing as you had your turn in 1999-2003. In MKO era, the current dynamics isn't same.
MKO won in Anambra and got more than 45% votes castes in Abia,, Enugu and Imo.
That's how you edged out TOFA. What are the chances of a greedy SW presidency candidate getting 2% of SE votes? What are your chances of making inroads in SS considering how you treated GEJ in 2015?

There nothing like the South in Yoruba current presidential ambitions. You killed a Southern presidential candidate (GEJ) just so that you can become a VP and thereafter become president. You might think yourself wise, but you are not as wise as you think. You will taste your own medicine come 2023. Your presidential candidate will sacrificed for a Southern VP.

Just watch and see.

the problem with you guys is that you don't understand sw politics and that's why you see them as betrayals, sw don't play direct politics like the rest of the country, they go to where their interest lies, you guys will shout betrayal again in 2023 when those you think opposed tinubu, osinbajo and co in 2019 turn around to work and support them in 2023.

StOla:
And what does that say about the Igbos?

Why is it that the Igbos are the ones most angered by the June 12 democracy day that is for all of Nigeria?

Is democracy only for Yorubas? Or did the military continue to rule in the SouthEast or the rest of Nigeria after May 1999?

Or the fact that majority of Igbos did not vote for a fellow Southerner, but chose a Northerner on June 12 1993, is a guilt of betrayal that they do not want to be reminded about, especially when they are now the greatest advocates parroting Southern Unity and making claims that some other persons are Northern slaves or betraying the South?

egbon, softly on these guys nah this na early morning o!

If a foreigner says that Nigerians are a confused people we go vex. Wtf do we want? One minute we are against fraud,the next we are endorsing and supporting it. Upon all the religious mental illness wey dey dis contri my people still be two faced ,back stabbing hypocrites. These yeyebrities are the worst. I mean look at the kind of illiterate, ignorant, crime supporting fools we're making famous. So because we haven't caught the politicians ,every other thing goes?. Mumu logic of an idiotîc people.

so sad, we have lost our humanity as a people, when I see folks abusing efcc for doing their job, I just know we are not ready as a Nation to truly fight corruption. There is no selective fight against evil. If you do the crime, get ready to also do the time.

Most Nigerians no longer believe in hard work and honesty. They want politicians to behave first before they themselves behave. Very funny

the new air-conditioned buses plying ojodu berger-tbs needs this or else those beautiful marcopolo buses will become something else in the next six months.

Bitter, how? So, answer me then, why did Buhari campaigned that his wife will not have any official office and no public fund would spent on her becus not constitutional?

Why did he say what he can't keep then? If Buhari has done all he condemned his precedecor of doing, what use if he to us then?

When you see buhari, you can ask him. The presidency of any nation is an institution, you may have your personal views on how things should run before entering the office but when you get in, you have to surrender to the tenets of the office, part of which is proper care and welfare for your immediate family. Its like asking why any of buhari's children must eat breakfast in aso rock cos it's public fund. Some things are petty including the question of the first lady not being catered for by public funds.

So relax and stop being petty

Princedapace:
Are u kidding me? Did i elect his wife? So, why pay her from my money? Answer my question, why was he abusing others of what he is doing now? He should have kept quiet. And hey, the report said 49 out of over 100 aids.. If only 49 consumes this much, then imagine the rest.

My problem is that he is doing what he complained others were doing.

you are just bitter, so his wife should be excluded from being taken care of because she is not elected, how wise you are. When you see Donald trump, tell him same thing too. Elections are over, try and move on bruv, Hatred and bitterness kills.

Princedapace:

Oh, but that was what the past govt earned too?

And why did u avoid the other points raised? why have aids for the first lady when he assured Nigerians that there will not be an office for the first lady?

Why are will paying her salary and her aids from tax payers money? Are these not what saint Buhari lamented about?

so why are guys shouting? You want him to reduce it so you guys can say he is truly wicked

So you also want this wife to go about without aides abi, na wa for una o. Hate PMB or not, these figures has truly shown that he is not draining our treasury on these aides.

darkelf:
How is earning 1m per month for doing nothing modest?

Have you felt the impact of this government? I am not a GEJ supporter because most unintelligent nairalanders tend to come at someone criticizing
PMB from that angle.

Unless you are benefiting from the aids one way or the other, I see a lot of wrong in this

This is not about impact of the govt, that's a different topic. This is about salaries of those who work directly and personally with the President, the most powerful person in the country and you think 1m monthly is too much? Do you know that Special advisers are almost at par with Ministers? You want those who work with the President following him about to earn the minimum wage like someone pointed out earlier

If you have personal issues with the President, fine but on this every well educated person knows this is very modest. Problem with you guys is that everything that has to do with PMB is wrong.

Princedapace:
But your Buhari said he will do away with all these!

What u people fail to do is to hold ur politicians accountable based on their promises.. Like Fashola said, he would fix electricity in 6 months

He even lamented that electricity is not rocket science..

Lol, it is almost 5 years and the same stories..

Buhari lambasted Yara dua for traveling to Saudi for medicals, he promised to end it, he came to power, he did worse and he is still doing same..

and yet, someone somewhere still dey praise Buhari. If u ever condemned GEJ presidency, u must condemn this one too becus na the same stories with different faces.

stop being petty, if this is what these government aides are truly earning, then this government is very modest. No wonder folks don't like buhari govt cos he is not throwing money around, only haters think otherwise

Nigeria's greatest footballer ever cos till today we still lack a lethal striker in the mould of Yekini

The man is smart sha, he is calculating ahead of 2023 so he won't be left out

souljaslim:
Very funny...restructuring based on 2014 national conference... Is what we demand...all this talk of not understanding it just time wasting... Till e turn into all out war...or nigeria gets to the point of no return like my Ipob friends want...let's wait and c

if our ipob friends get into aso rock tomorrow, they will forget about restructuring including those who were in the 2014 conference, most Nigerians just want a piece of the national cake, simple. All this talk of war na joke, with all the owambes every weekend, who wan die, abeg forget story restructuring means different things to different people

olas24u:
They have been asking for the return to the 1963 constitution for 50years.You can see that they don't intend handing over to the vice president or tinubu or fashola, because they will avoid it by all means possible.so it is good to use double strategy aiming for the same goal post and defeat this wicked system.

No one can hold this country to ransom, the problem is not the people who are resisting a change in the system it but the strong resolve of those who want a change. We talk too much in Nigeria but we are not wiling to make enough sacrifices, note the word 'enough' pls.

We simply lack enough men of principle who truly desire a change, if atiku had won, the same adebanjo too will forget about restructuring and become part of the atiku cabal like the way edwin clark and co were during gej's reign.

Nigerians are not ready for restructuring, we only complain when we are not part of those who have access to certain privileges, the same people shouting restructuring today who were in Gej's govt were also silent about restructuring then.
