Happy birthday to an ex-head of state for just 60 days.

Just to enlighten the indomie generation before they start talking trash here

CAN need to come out to condemn the Niger delta militants to show their concern for Nigerians who suffer the consequences of blown up pipelines just like Nigerians also suffer as a result of the herdsmen attacks.

CAN need to be nationalistic indeed to show they do not support a particular region only.

DropShot:
Learn to move on. GEJ is history already. If he was not sleping on duty, he might not have been as Ineffectual as he was.

We need to watch out for a trend that will soon be coming from the wailers, as the FG continues to roll out projects now that the budget have been signed, watch how the wailers will claim that gej started it. This will be their next song to discredit PMB.

Who cares about Jonathan sef, it is CAN and the Catholic bishops am waiting for to condemn the niger delta militants.

Their voice is so loud when the herdsmen strike but thunder fire CAN if they don't condemn the avengers or scavengers. Too much hypocrisy in Nigeria

macfarland:
So u claim GEJ was not serious with d conference? Did you follow it at all? U better go and look into d document. IPOB want Biafra cos they have lost faith in Nigeria and there's no going back on that till it is achieved. U can't live with people who don't love u... Can't allow you govern yet they won't survive without ur resources... Dats an error

They only lost faith in Nigeria after gej lost out, why did they not contest with gej when he said Nigeria's unity was not negotiable? Its all deception and not many of us are falling for that crap

Alezy:
Well...truth be said, u have a point but since the politicians from here won't do anything about it, then I guess they need to help themselves out.

They kept shut because they actually saw GEJ as someone that will help bring more jobs and infrastructure to the region, unfortunately he didn't do much and majority of salaries paid to militants where actually paid to ghost militants who probably haf jobs already.

So I understand their anger. May God save us all.

Amen bruv.

macfarland:
What has ur Buhari done with the GEJ 2014 sovereign national conference? It's dat part of the fight? This oil matter will break d country

Gej conference was to drum up support for his reelection, not many took that conference seriously, only gej sympattizers thinks the conference made any sense and for christ sake if gej was serious, he would have started the implementation before leaving office but alas he himself never took the conference serious. The conference by the way was not sovereign as gej said that the unity of Nigeria was not negotiable. Ipob members and niger delta miltants never contested this until gej was voted out when they suddenly remembered biafra.

Alezy:
Yes very true, the state government has a problem there too and that's a norm in all states in Nigeria.

but there are certain project that re far more dan state government. that's why we have states and federal projects. if u have gotten to chevron in a community called Ogidigben in delta state, they have absolutely nothing. just imagine a community where chevron is, no light or good water.

The whole production goes to the federal government who in turns sends state allocation. This allocation goes also to all states in Nigeria. Remember that the cost to make a road in the SS is like 3 times the amount in states like bauchi, sokoto and the rest. but go and look at the allocation and see the difference. why do u think they are fighting for resource control.

But you don't fight for resource control by destroying infrastructure, what are their senators and reps doing all these Years? The fight for resource control earlier gave them 13% derivation, why not fight for more through your representatives in the senate and reps? And what has been achieved in the region with the 13%?

So many questions begging for anwsers. Political diplomacy is the best way and not public anger or hatred against other regions. The Niger deltans need to be more tactful. Oil will not be forever just like cocoa or groundnut pyramids of yesteryears.

Pedrop:
Yea, won't be a bad idea to collect allocations from SW resources. At least, let's leave NigerDelta and milk oduduwa, not bad at all.


Hope nobody calls for secession


Cc: cbrass

And the sw will keep improving their infrastructure that makes everyone keeps thronging there

Not a bad idea at all

Alezy:
U don't expect a particular region to have stuffs like that and don't benefit from it themselves.

They supply all oil and gas to every other region, the gas that generates light comes from them and alot. yet they don't have light at all, nor water to drink now it's fuel.

Wait....have u ever been to the creeks?? I will feel so sorry for ppl there

So what have their states governments been doing over the years in giving them basic amenities? What has NDDC, Niger delta ministry been doing also?

The problem is, folks in this region are not asking the right questions. They have been fooled to believe that all their problems is from Abuja

cbrass:
If you look closely the SW folks are quietly preparing themselves for take over with oil exploration in Lagos and Ondo, with the way these guys are going about bombing pipelines ,I pity the ND

Exactly investors in oil and gas may begin to look west as the next hub for oil. If oil is in Lagos, it's most likely in Ogun, refineries may begin to spring up at a fast rate in the sw few years to come, the market is there and the States govt will cash on this.

The Niger delta region lacks understanding of political diplomacy. They've been lied to that violence works faster.

Fani Kayode, your father was known as fani power nah, be a man and stop shouting like a woman.

Some of us are so busy, don't disturb us with your noise nah, we need some quiet please

cbrass:
My thoughts exactly. I hope that whole region don't regret this in the future

They simply lack foresight as no serious investor will move near that region and later they will cry out about marginalisation

But the budget has been signed nah, for where dem wan chook ekiti for the railway now?

I though the ekiti state govt are partnering with China too abi wetin their governor waka go China for?

This is the reason new refineries or sea ports can't be built in this region, you can't be destroying infrastructures and asking for it at the same time.

The elites from the region has misled and confused these misguided bunch.

Prof Sagay should take it easy on the wailers o, they would soon be here to vent their fustrations

These avengers sef de dull, I expect by now they would have wiped out the whole of their region out of existence.

Dem not try at all, bunch of liverless souls

PureWays:
Saraki's actions have proved that he is with PDP..

Anyways, where else can you find this kind of thief if not in PDP domain.

saraki would have decamped back to the pdp long time ago but for the fact that he will loose his seat which is line with a supreme court ruling months back.

TonyeBarcanista:
APC won't be happy...






But I don't give a damn about Saraki

you do of course cos he's working for your party.

Jonathan no sell again, na Yar adua now, chai pdp don suffer o

akpabio have been disappointing the wailers in recent times, the other day he said APC should not be blamed for the present economic crises, now he is saying commercial kidnapping started in Abia state.

Its high time Akpabio tells us something we are yet to know o!

This man de chop meat die mhen, but seriously, I think he should allow his people to decide this.

Any true solution to the crisis is a welcome idea

The wailers are always beaten to their game sha, that's how they have been making us to believe that fuel scarcity started with PMB.

Anyway, its good to know that even their hero GEJ also saw the budget as rocket science in wailers voice

omobaekiti:
yes there was fuel,yes rice sells for 6k then...now things are tough now no fuel...honestly tell me if gej had won,are you telling me this things we are experiencing now would not be the same bearing in mind that the coordinating minister if finance under gej has said that its going to be a rough year matured input please.

don't mind those ignorant folks, they keep blaming the present economic crisis which is actually not caused by anybody on PMB
truth is GEJ is not a matured leader to guide Nigerians thru this present economic crunch, we for see whien no be small

NOI was already borrowing money to pay salaries when price of crude oil was selling at 65 dollars per barrell

some fellows are just too pained whenever they hear how their hero wack our money finish.

They can relocate to Togo for all I care, we too plenty for this country jor

Bestinstinct:
Pure hypocrisy! Only the rich enjoys all. May God bless us too.

sad but true, the chibok girls will be with their parents now if this is how we truly respond to rescue operations like this

tundelight:
Fayose shouldn't forget that his people and their livestock as well are at risk of consuming the water.

Leave him, let his admirers continue to cheer him on, A governor indeed, smh

NwaNimo1:
This man is desperate to become relevant......

too desperate my brother, from aspiring to be consultant to Buhari on forex, to Obiano campaign manager and finally Anambra Fa chairman.

the man sef, just anything will do

I see typical Nigerians making a fool of themselves by saying who is musa?

The way we pull down our own is just too nauseating.

asuustrike2009:
They are facts. The truth is bitter

the bitter truth is that if your hero had continued, he won't have been able to cope with the fallen prices of crude oil, cos he didn't have the political will to save according to his coordinating minister of the economy.

Pls stop spreading lies and using the present economic hardship caused by no one to justify GEJ's rule, its ridiculous

This information is for Nigeria people alone

CORRUPTION & WASTAGE: Buhari And Jonathan, At A Glance. FACT IS FACT.

1] Jonathan sold Petrol at N87 while Buhari is selling at average of N300 & above, yet Buhari supporters think Jonathan was more corrupt and wasteful.

2] When Jonathan Budgeted N1bn for feeding in Aso-Rock in 2011, and N517m in 2015, APC cried wolf and now Buhari's budget for same is N1.7billion. Yet Buharists are mute and still think GEJ was more corrupt and wasteful.

3] Jonathan spent N1.4bn to service all presidential jets in one year while Buhari spends N6bn on same in 6month yet Buharists
think GEJ was more corrupt and wasteful.

4] Jonathan gave more funding to education while Buhari's 2016
budget favours Ministry of information more than education
yet Buharists think GEJ was more corrupt/wasteful.

5] Jonathan spent an average of N8million on each international
trip while Buhari spends an average of N55million on each
international trip, yet Buharists think GEJ was more corrupt and
wasteful.

6] Jonathan created Over 5.8millon jobs in 5yrs while buhari has
sacked over 2million workers in 8months. Check Federal
Bureau of Statistics.

7] Jonathan made Nigeria's economy the best in Africa and No 1 investment destination & quadrupled our GDP in 4yrs while Buhari has dragged Nigeria's economy down to 14th position in ranking in just 7months.

8] Jonathan left Naira exchange rate @ N185 to $1 but Buhari with his Adama and Eve economics has destroyed the Naira in just 8 months which now sells at N315 to $1.

9] It took Jonathan less than 2weeks to select his cabinet including foreign based technocrats while it took Buhari 6months to do same. Even with indicted people and no single economist among the 36 names.

10] Buhari claimed that subsidy was fraud (Who is subsidizing who@) but buhari has spent N1.2trillion on fuel subsidy in the last 5 months and still no fuel while all Buharists have suddenly gone dumb.

11] Buhari/APC accused Jonathan of corruption but have not been able to pin one stain on him, while Muhammadu Buhari himself followed the crowd that entered into the #DasukiGate.

12] Under Jonathan freedom and liberty of Nigerians was not determined by party affiliation, but today under Buhari his perceived enemies and political opponents are leveled with frivolous allegations of crimes and intimidated with either the EFCC or the DSS.

13] Buhari does not have an Honorary WAEC but bags an
illegal Honorary (Ph.D) from a university that have no PhD student and Not approved by NUC and yet Buharists respect his NEPA Bill more than GEJ's PhD.

14. Buhari used his secondary school principal's recommendation letter to become Military Head of State and again used Court Affidavit to become President and no one reminded him that these are the height of corruption.
He Refused to declare his assets public, suppressing the FOI and denied all his 81 election promises and stayed in the last 8 months blaming former leaders. Jonathan was in that position, he never complained or blamed anyone, but faced his work even when Buhari's disgruntled brother ensured that Nigeria will know no peace. - Hope For Nigeria
