There is nothing genetic about poverty, it is an AQUIRED Immuned Disease.

Case study, look at NIGERIA.

Nigerians 1 Saraki 99

While Saraki and his judicial cronies share 99 percent of the income the Nigerian masses wallow in poverty with 1 percent.

Time to celebrate!

SARAKI PROVES ODDS OF WINNING AGAINST CORRUPTION 1:99

The Senate President Bukola Saraki has been “vindicated” by Supreme Court, the highest court in the land. It is not the first time. James Ibori also fought all the way to Supreme Court before he was also “vindicated”. People celebrated and danced. Even when Ibori was finally convicted in England, he was welcomed back to Nigeria with special prayers in the Church and traditional chiefs welcomed him. Saraki may get the same reception.

We still remember how Justice Ayo Salami, the former President of the Court of Appeal rejected inducement to be promoted to the Supreme Court by the former Chief Justice of Nigeria, Aloysiuos Iyorgher Katsina_Alu; as “Greek Gift” to throw a case before him.
It is even worse now that judges keep a pile of foreign currencies at home and solicit lawyers for presents to fulfill wedding ceremonies of their children like Justice Ademola!

When you read this statement from a member of the gang of the most corrupt leaders in Nigeria as innocent citizens are languishing in our jails because they have no money to bail themselves out, bribe police or judges; we must wonder which country this Saraki rouge referred to. Is it not sickening when due process, rule of law or democracy is used as excuse?

“I have always believed in the infallibility of our Judiciary, secure in the knowledge that our courts – the last refuge of the oppressed - would never condemn the innocent. This outcome is also a vindication of my belief in the rule of law”

Corruption is winning every day in Nigeria and people are celebrating against Nigeria. If there is a place corruption fights back with the cooperation of the masses dancing and celebrating, you can count on Nigeria. The Judiciary is so corrupt, you would think most of them were trained or from Chicago before the clean up as some of their governors ended up in jail. But the case of Nigeria harboring the poorest people on earth is so sad, there is no poverty comparison with Illinois, United States.

Other Nigerians watched, dismayed that if someone as crooked and barefaced as Saraki could get away with impunity, there was no reason to jail as poor people stealing in the market or beat them unconscious. Even armed robbers and kidnappers are wondering why they did not go into politics because their own acts involved greater risk of being jailed or lynched by the mob. These are the same people celebrating corrupt politicians.

Bukola Saraki is a qualified medical doctor but the job is too tedious for him and prefer the comfort of banking and politics. The family including the father left many Nigerians hanging dry after Societe Generale Bank liquidated all their savings. The father and the son became the Governor of Kwara only to steal the State blind. He was involved in so many schemes, even the Chief of Police could not move him an inch on bank fraud.

Recently another Chief of Police queried the same Saraki when it was established that he is the godfather of Armed Robbers gang at Offa where so many people were killed; as if their godfather is bigger than the God of common people. These type of nefarious activities can never be connected to God fearing people. But when you sponsor thugs, they know that if they get caught, their godfather is waiting to bail them out!
These were the qualifications he presented when he wrestled the position of Senate President against his Party. But then, there were precedents since Tambuwal did the same to become the President of the Senate with the cooperation of Tinubu’s (Yekini Amoda Ogunlere) Party then, ACN. Tinubu got paid back with his coin when Saraki used his chicanery to sidestep him in APC and became the Senate President.

Tinubu and Saraki have more in common than political magomago. Yet, some youths are celebrating one against the other in the wake of Saraki’s “victory” at the Supreme Court. They are both crooks and vultures that have looted their states blind as governors and continue to enjoy the dividends of corruption. This is the Augean stable swamping the country where the highest number of poor people suffocate daily.

The poverty mentality has overtaken any form of decency in the polity and children born into it have no sense of normalcy without corruption from the lowest level of the society to the highest level of government. As much as a few people that could work against corruption tried, they were overtaken by the wave of corruption swamp. As some good people move a few steps forward, many more crooks move the goalpost backwards in multiple steps.

One needs to visit Nigeria and see how poor people work from dawn to dusk. Even children struggle on the streets to supplement the income of their parents. The more they work, the less the money they earn could make a difference. Those that are totally exhausted and worn out live under the bridge, pick anything they can eat or sell dangerous elements from environmental dumps in one city or another.

These poor people watch as conspicuous spenders like Saraki that make their money from corruption display what they buy with it. They have fleet of luxury cars that only the rich and the famous can buy in rich countries. Humongous houses are built in capital cities, bought in world most famous cities and designer materials in clothes and shoes ostentatiously displayed to spite the poor and those celebrating them.

Saraki is a “devoted” Muslim. Churches and Mosques used to depend on them for tithes but now realize pastors and imams can become rich too by predicting calamities and performing fake miracles in order to entice the gullible looking for salvation, riches and miracles. Jujumen have also joined the pastors and imams promising heaven and earth by rituals if they sleep with mad people, their mothers, bring the heads of their relatives.

Saraki and other politicians in his gang have sucked money out of development. This is how the society has gone down from bad to worse, as we say. The respect for hard work, humility and perseverance have gone out the window. Families have broken down and everyone is for himself. Schools have become money making ventures where the rich politicians, churches and foreign duplicated names are now the norm while government schools and colleges suffer without books, desk and chairs. Saraki and Co., trained abroad also train their children abroad. They don’t care. The poor worship them.

The youths can only emulate these “successful” enterprises of corruption they are born into. They wonder when God is going to pick their calls so that they can make money like Saraki and other politicians from every nook and corner of the country. Many of the youths have never seen hardworking people from their towns and villages that made it from grass to grace. They are surrounded by corrupt people that are either in politics or servicing politicians.

Youths neither have clean role models nor agree on one; except the one that can grab the biggest loot or rob by 419 (Yahoo Yahoo boys). How then can we blame the youths for being lazy when their mentors looted local, state and the federal treasury dry?

Must have missed the reason they have to import raw materials.

Africa is the main supplier of raw materials. Intentionally so designated so that companies can make money on finished products then export profit.

Unfortunately, this leeching act is not limited to foreign companies. Local companies like Dangote, Innoson and more do it too.

Now that we are asking them to source raw materials at home and export finished products so that meagre forex can be devoted to pressing needs, almighty P&C is claiming they cannot import raw materials. Like what?

Coca Cola and beer companies that depend on sugar, water and barley that can be substituted with local guinea corn or corn also cry for lack of imports.

The place bankers, politicians and companies make their obscene money is in forex. Plants have been closed, workers used as hostages between these leeching danduruwa.

While Nigerians bleed.

Biko, which of you pay tax in Lagos even in Nigeria unless you want something. Then they ask you for your tax certificate. If you know what is called taxes, you will pack your load and run!

Edited but still apt.

Duplicated

How politicians like Saraki has remained in power say more about Buhari and Nigeria

WooW!

Is this South Africa or USA?

You cannot even call the attention of our youths to immoral turpitude of monetary gains without incurring their wrath or being derided for jealousy. It started from their parents in the days we used to report or threaten wayward students, so that they could sit up. Some of their parents would ask: shey na your money he steal?

Regardless of the ultimate price paid crossing the desert, sea and separation of parents from children; we still take the risk in greater numbers gambling with kids hopelessly alone. What is more dangerous, fighting oppressors at home where we have rights or pawning our children as deadly game abroad without rights?

Any group that think they can overwhelm the border of any country with sympathizers’ demonstration, civil rights advocates and international outcries are only playing into the hands of voters worried that they might lose control of their country. Not even liberals are willing to lose their countries to foreign migrants called “aliens”.

Feeding Our Children’s Flesh & Blood To The Lowest Bidders

We want to enjoy what their and our people fought and died for without doing the same in our land. We still worship them. When some of us were children, we protested in secondary schools against bad food, political removal of principals or vice-chancellor in university. Newspapers hid jumping from house to house to publish, Banbagida and Abacha were fought to a standstill by NADECO inside and outside the Country. Why are our youths waiting for their ancestors to fight for them?

https://www.thenigerianvoice.com/news/267682/feeding-our-childrens-flesh-blood-to-the-lowest-bidders.html

I sometimes wonder what anagelstic politicians are giving youths to divide them and turn them into praise singers as long as politicians belong to the other ethnic groups.

Ijebu and egusi is like 5 & 6.

Go home and ask.

The fact that so many of you shaded the guy who called the father a fool that would regret the gift show how far the country has fallen.

At 23 what is she going to achieve to top this? This is why you are called lazy yuz. You expect manna from heaven. This is the mentality today.

No wonder you cannot wrestsle the country from looters. No sense of hard work just gratification for doing nothing.

Your ancestors that you want to fight for you like Soyinka are going and gone. Were they this complacent at your age?

Siddon dey condemn a few that dare tell you the truth.

Lazy yuz!

BTW, the opportunity to graduate debt free is the best present a youth would thank God for anywhere in the world except in a poor country like ours.

So what?

Arrest all of them. They are all looters. Let the next head of State arrest Buhari too.

2019: Plot To Arrest IBB, Obasanjo, Jonathan, Atiku, TY Danjuma, Others Exposed

written by Our Reporter June 11, 2018

UMOBILE_600X90B



Former Minister of Aviation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, has alleged that

there are plots by the President Mohammadu Buhari’s led government

targeting prominent personalities in the countries like ex-President

Goodluck Jonathan, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, ex-Head of State,

Ibrahim Babangida, and Gen. TY Danjuma (retd.).


The former minister issued a statement confirming that there are plans by

the All Progressives Congress-led federal government to implicate, arrest

and detain ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo.


The statement titled, “Press Statement on The Buhari Administration’s Plan

to Implicate, Detain, Silence and Possibly Kill President Olusegun

Obasanjo and Other Key Opposition Figures and Leaders in Nigeria,” read in

part: “I have read the disturbing reports about the President Muhammadu

Buhari administration’s plan to frame up, arrest and detain President

Olusegun Obasanjo on trumped-up and politically-motivated charges. It has

also been brought to my attention that they have threatened his life. I am

not surprised because this is nothing new for this government. That is

their stock in trade and they have been doing it for the last three years

to anyone and everyone that opposes or criticises them.”


Accusing President Buhari of being the brains behind the plots,

Fani-Kayode added: “What bothers me now is that President Buhari has

become so jittery that he is prepared to do anything to stay in power. I

have done my research and I have discovered that the plan is real. The

government is also planning to target other key opposition figures and

elder statesmen – as we get closer to 2019 – such as Gen. TY Danjuma, Gen.

Ibrahim Babangida, President Goodluck Jonathan and a handful of others. It

appears that Buhari will stop at nothing in order to ensure that all his

critics are silenced.


“The plan to implicate and silence all these leaders together with key

figures in the PDP like Ayo Fayose, Emmanuel Udom, Ibrahim Dankwabo,

Nyesom Wike, Darius Ishaku, Godswill Akpabio, David Mark, Ike Ekweremadu,

Lyel Imoke, Uche Secondus, Sule Lamido, Ibrahim Shekarau, Abubakar

Suleiman, Kabiru Turaki, David Jang, Atiku Abubakar, Dele Belgore, Jumoke

Akinjide, Nenadi Usman and others is condemnable. They also plan to give

some of us the Nnamdi Kanu treatment and make us dissapear or give us the

Sambo Dasuki and El Zakzaky treatment and lock us up indefinitely but they

will fail.”


The Peoples Democratic Party’s chieftain accused the president of being

desperate to the extent of attempting to “discredit and destroy” key

members of the APC like Bukola Saraki, Yakubu Dogara, Dino Melaye, Rabiu

Kwankwaso, Abubakar Baraje, Aminu Tambuwal, AbdulFatah Ahmed, Timi Frank

and others.


The statement added: “Nigeria is fast becoming a fascist police state

where dissent is seen as a crime and where those that oppose the President

are perceived as enemies of the state and prisoners of war. Taking this

matter to a level of threatening the lives and liberty of people like

Obasanjo, Danjuma, Babangida, Jonathan and other elder statesmen and

seeking to destroy key opposition figures for no just cause is dangerous

and unacceptable and it will have consequences.


“We do not want war in Nigeria: we want peace and the Buhari government

should desist from provoking a situation and a series of events that may

end up spiralling out of control. It is almost as if they are begging for

war and that is tragic. They may have the full machinery and power of the

Federal Government but we have the living God. Nothing can stop us in our

divine mission to stop him and rescue Nigeria.”

I thought they claim all Nigerians are the same swindlers.

Until now, who is denying that?

pussygotlips:
this kind behaviour is common with igbos drunkards.


Reason why igbo girls will rather marry other tribe.

Chai her face really need a panel beater.

chigy3:
This is the same reason why you have written JAMB 5 times and failed. Your father should just use you as Loan Collateral. Ewu!

A beg no kill man with laff.

But na true sha, Igbo women nor dey fool around with their men. Na Yoruba women get mouth.

Try Sha.

Don't worry about critics. The ladies know it's true.

Some have lost good men that way. Four months it's too long to show interest. She probably lost her boyfriend and then fell back to that guy!

Somebody just lied to me that a United States divorcee at the age of 36 just married a prince that is just 34.

Woow, ladies in their 30s have hidden gem o!

It is so encouraging that more and more youths are seeing through these looters.

If any project is not foreign where they can chop and quench, they would not touch it with a 111 meter pole. Check most of the projects in Nigeria, they are all new. Nobody is building on or completing most of their predecessors' projects. It has to be new and foreign.

Even oyibo don eat una tire for your stupidity and how easy it is to dupe Africans. They will even beg and thank oyibo.

The day most of these projects and machines are manufactured and mostly assembled in Nigeria, we go know say jubilation don start. Any new assembly of ordinary keke, youths go dey start jubilation.

FYI, assembly has been going on in Nigeria since the 60s.

Men are bad women are wicked.

She lost her heart and conscience when she lost her puna and became a man

Why do these lazy youths celebrate when a crook gets away?

Una suffering just start dumb dumb.

Another Bini discovery claimed by Yoruba.

Now show us proof say na Yoruba. BTW, Iwo Eleru has Ogiso written all over it.

Bini the great standing or seated on Yoruba shoulders forever.

So what is wrong with asking what finished products were exported?

Sensible questions can not be asked anymore without using ethnic jargons as answers.

The place was named tax free zone. Is that for foreigners or Nigerian exporters or both. If that is the case, the locals are losing the main reason for it's Establishment.

People, especially Africans must stop looking at our economy or translating from foreigners perspective. This is 2018 for God's sake!

What do you expect in a country where the able bodies with brains are cast aside so that the weaklings and the senile supported by cabals and military power can reign.

The only sense here is that foreign reserve is good only for imports, knowing it can be paid for in "accepted" currency.

So it helps exchange rate because foreigners will sell to you with less risk i.e less interest rate like a bank lending money out to good or risky customers.

If you do not live and die on imports like US, Britain, China or Japan you can bluff and negotiate terms of trade. I did not mention Germany because like Japan, they have strong export market like China.

The point and lesson here is that if you have week exports, not a member of trading group, not even within your African community, your foreign exchange and reserve is only good and dictated by the confidence expressed in you by your foreign trading partners.

More important, your ability to pay them. Cut the crap, eat, drink, wear and drive what you produce like US, Britain, Japan and China. Trade with other African countries. I think the last statistics I saw was 20% trade between African communities.

Change your taste and strengthen your currency with your gold instead of saving it in countries that just print currency without gold backing like US.

Talk about theories that surround import economy all we want, until we realize that we are consumers and import economy, our reserve matter only for that purpose. Become producers, even within African economy up to 50% and we will see a substantial difference.

Before those importers and foreign contractors cry murder, 50% will not kill you but you will make less dollars and euro.

No lady tells more than three. Any over that will be divided by 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 or 9. Anything above that, don't say you do not know.

Ok.

Which country is the biggest debtor.

Subtract it from their wealth.

You may have some point.

They were ready to release any fund or negotiate odious loan made to Nigeria; under OBJ as long as Okonjo Iweala from World Bank was appointed Finance Minister

buhariguy:
So thief obj and ineffectual buffoon mismanaged abacha returned loot.

And the lazy idiotic pigs of biafra claim both thieves as their hero

While it true that Muslim prayer involves stretching exercises, they simply walk more than Southerners.

They also eat less, especially their portion size. As they get richer, like Chinese kids, they eat more and get fat too.

Which can quession be dis?

Emeka, I think Egun and Awori are Ibo.
