Why would a sensible christian fall for a cheap propaganda and centiment.Our pastor vice president Yemi Osinbajo is the chairman economic team for about 8yrs, CBN governor,cheif of defense staff for about 8yrs are All christian why should a right thinking person blame the problem of Nigeria on a person because his a Muslim president .No one cares if a Muslim succeed a Muslim.Where is that written in our constitution.Kano Governors and deputy since creation are always the same religion vice versa Benue etc,how has that make Kano better or any other christian dominated State Government ,how has that religion domination stop any non Muslim or non christian in Kano or else,live the way they wants in Kano.
Who cares about anyone religion.What matter is the service delivery.
Must of this CAN perhaps want their folk to get there to contract and free money like CAN under orisajafor
How you balance the country issue on some one because of his Islamic religion.When some key leadership post are dominated by our own christian.
Kaduna security challenges is there with both Governor and deputy are the same religion Muslim.How has not not impacted KD positively.
Use your common sense

Muslim

PresidentAtiku:
If Tinubu is made President, it means

Buhari-Muslim 8 Years
Tinubu- Muslim 8 years
Power shifts to the north
Another Muslim- 8 years

This equals to 24 years in a multi-religious country.

TINUBU IS A NO not

Please check your history book.I are you sure, you have not been program and position to project Religion centimennt ignoramously.Let me you help you balance your bigotry.
OBj christian 8yrs
Yaradu Muslim 2 yrs
GEJ christian 6 yrs
PMB Muslim 8yrs
The BAT Tinubu that has not even Wii l. His party primary you concluded that he is Muslim another 8 yrs this is an avoidable ignorance.How has the president as Muslim make the life oa Muslim better than any Non Muslim

I think Ameachi is a good presidential Resource.8yrs, Speaker,8 year governor, rounding up 8 years Minister,He has a lot of experiences

Dshocker:
First a time any political office holder will reject the title in Nigeria...Hmmmm,its a sign that he might do well

That's not true.Governor Sanwo olu said it in 2019 that he shouldn't be addressed as His Excellency.

Keep wasting your precious time here.The real voters are not on social media

Baawaa:
Tinubu is a thief,simple

Did he steal your Father's Money?

nairaman66:
Osinbanjo has the capacity building to take Nigeria somewhere as long as he can retrieve his soul from the hegemony that has kept Nigeria in dark places!

Which capacity?Tell me who is comfortable with the economy of the country?Osinbajo is the chairman of economic Team for the last 6 years tell me one unprecedented economic break through did he achieve.He must explain how he use trader money to campaign for his second term.Now he his no longer sharing trader money,Why do you think he is different from other known politicians.Pastor Tunde bakere should be considered.Oshibajo can't do more than what he has done.Fresh politician like Tunde is fair, younger, digitally exposed,well read, courageous and a know pastor without blemishes, Smart, intelligent......

DarkJeddi:
Corruption has a LOT to do with what one earns..
Stop sugarcoating things and call a spade a spade..
Everything is not black and white..
If you don't pay people well..
Common sense dictates..
That they would look for ways to augment their paltry salary..
Some might look for legitimate means to do that..
And some might gravitate towards corruption..
You pay a man 20K in this economy..
You expect him to work from morning till night..
Without a chance to legitimately augment his salary somewhere..
And you think such a person would not start thinking of what to do..
To make ends meet?

You missed the point,The argument is if you claimed people indulge in public looting because of poor salary.
Why are rich one looting,I am sure you are aware of some formal governor in Prison now.Are they poor.
Lack of value is the problem

How do YOU expect him to prophesied the death of the man when he can't even prophesied the death of his Son that died last year, Scammers everywhere.
It is only Nigeria Pastors that prophesied. Doom for their country but will never prophesied doom for their family.Never when they travel abroad to preach they rearely prophesied doom in UK or Us as if God secretariat is In Nigeria and Nigerian pastors are the secretaries.They have influence some Muslim, some fake Asalatu have started immitating them. A man of God with private Jet.Full security escort all over
I don't know any Pastor abroad with private Jet and security around.

Bravo absolutely correct.

This Daru Dapo is talking trash,The MAploy that upgraded to University By Amosun the bastard Dapo reversed it ,who is vision less between the Dou.?
within 3monthe in office.may be because it was located in Abeokuta the capital.
Taisolarin college of education that was converted to University by OGD he didn't reverse because is located in Ijebu zone.
The mumu imposed by short devil vp is a big mis match for Ogun.
All State higher institution are located out of the state capital to Ijebu.
The only university that should be in the capital the idiot reverse it we know All what your hatred is about. God will continue to exposed you.I hope you will make Ijebu the best place after your administration.We shall teach you a lesson.

Nigeria Pastor will make prophecy about evils attacks and calamity befallen their country as shown to them by God., that means,that that's God wish.Their followers will blame other Religion that they want to islamised the country,for instance if the vice president travel to his home next year and the presidential jet crashed will you accept it as what God wishes already prophecies.or you will blame other Religion that they killed him because is a Christian.
Please you need to format your brain an d installed deep and critical thinking software.

HOW BUHARI BROKE THE JINX AT NNPC
By FEMI ADESINA

The news came like a thundering typhoon last week. For the first time in its 44 years history, the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) had made a profit.

Net profit after tax stood at N287 billion in Year 2020, sequel to the completion of the statutory Annual Audit exercise. What year? 2020. Year of the Coronavirus pandemic, when most of the world, including Nigeria, was under lockdown! And here was NNPC, recording profit first time in its history. How did it happen? How can it?

Well, it happened because perhaps for the first time in the history of the country, and of the NNPC, there is a President who is not using the place like a personal automated teller machine. He’s not collecting millions upon millions of dollars by fiat, nor is he giving directives for any under the table deal. And that President also happens to be the Minister for Petroleum Resources.

Before we discuss how Muhammadu Buhari broke the jinx, let’s consider how naysayers responded to the good news. They first pretended it didn’t happen. The announcement came, and it didn’t resonate. They didn’t share it widely on social media, some traditional media platforms didn’t even publish it. Those who reluctantly did, made it sound more like an obituary announcement. What a country!

Remember they had said they would sell NNPC before the 2019 elections, which they had thought they would win. They lost. Flat. And the would-be sellers, and the prospective buyers, were naturally not happy that the oil corporation had made profit: under Buhari.

After first trying to downplay the news, they began to pick holes in it. The profit was only on paper, and didn’t exist in real terms. It was money that should have gone into the Federation Account, and was withheld by NNPC. Blah, blah, blah. The same NNPC they had wanted to sell to their friends.

I like the online interventions to the development by two friends and patriots. Simbo Olorunfemi, author and publisher, said: “To habitually doubt good news, yet never hesitant about embracing bad news, is an eloquent proof of the state of mind.”

Profound. Deep. Food for thought. All the years oil prices hit the rooftops, and NNPC recorded losses, they believed. Now, to hear that the same outfit made profit in a lockdown year, they disbelieved. Thomases! Doubters. Unless I see the mark of nails on his hands, and the spear wound on his side, I wouldn’t believe. “Then said he to Thomas! Be not faithless, but believing.”

The second intervention online is by Kurtis Adigba, a lawyer and ‘one man battalion’ for Buhari, and for Nigeria. He submitted: “Hate is not a stock or equity we must own a piece of. It pays dividends but only in death and destruction.”

Yes. They hated the news of NNPC profit, because it came under a most unlikely man. How dare he? Who permitted him! Anything we don’t do, can’t be done by anybody else.

Now, how did Buhari do it? What did he do differently, that made NNPC a winning corporation? Permit me to recall this piece I did in November last year, which answers most of the questions. It was under the headline; The Essential Buhari: NNPC GMD’s Testimony:

On Friday last week, Mallam Mele Kolo Kyari, Group Managing Director of Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), held an engagement with energy editors across diverse media platforms. Yours truly was invited.

I currently serve as media adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari, but I remain essentially a newspaper man. There’s nothing I love better. And when done in government, the media still beckons, by the grace of God. So I felt quite at home at the NNPC event, which was designed to update the media on current developments in the petroleum industry.

When a General Officer Commanding (GOC) moves, the brigade commanders and all other brass hats move too. At that outing with the GMD were the managing directors of subsidiaries, group general managers, and Who is Who in NNPC. The information garnered was worth its weight in gold.

NNPC is transforming from an integrated oil and gas company into an energy company, Mele Kyari disclosed. And quite contrary to the opacity of the past, operations of the energy company are as transparent as possible. His words:

“Over the past one and a half years, we have tried to keep that promise by sustaining the publication of our Monthly Financial and Operations Report (MFOR). No company, to my knowledge, does this.

“We have taken our transparency drive a notch higher by publishing our Audited Financial Statement for the 2018 and 2019 financial years on our website for all interested persons to see the significant turnaround in our performance recording 99.8% year-on-year.”

Which corporation was the GMD talking about? NNPC? Didn’t we know the place as the automated teller machine of presidents, oil ministers, any political party in power, and also the object of pillage by those who run the place? But under President Muhammadu Buhari, it is a new energy company, because a new broom was in town, and was sweeping so clean. More about that later.

Kyari said there was no information anybody wanted about NNPC operations that was not already in the public domain., adding: “I can say that we have kept our word as far as transparency and accountability are concerned. We will continue to do more until the word opacity is no longer associated with the Nigerian oil and gas industry.”

Some exploratory successes by NNPC, according to the GMD, include oil find in commercial quantity in the Upper Benue Trough, very high prospect of oil find in Kolmani River III Well, while seismic data collection is ongoing in the Bida Basin, “and we are relaunching exploration work in the Chad Basin.”

The world focuses more on gas as energy of the future, rather than petroleum, and the NNPC Boss said Nigeria was not left behind:

“We are investing aggressively in gas to take advantage of the energy transition and get Nigeria ready for the future in the face of the dwindling fortunes of petroleum liquids.

“You may be aware of the NLNG Train 7 and other gas infrastructure projects...all these are aimed at ensuring that Nigeria takes its rightful place in the emerging global energy order where natural gas is envisaged to play a pivotal role.”

The Yuletide season is often characterized by severe fuel scarcity. But the GMD assured that the energy company has solid arrangements in place to sustain fuel supply across the country., “and we are sure of maintaining zero fuel queues throughout the Christmas and New Year festive season into 2021.”

Can there be a parley between the media and NNPC at this time, and deregulation of the prices of petrol not feature? It would sure be incomplete. Hear the GMD: “Even though gasoline price is as high as N464/liter in Niger and more than double our N160/litre range in most West African countries, we would continue to ensure Nigerians benefit from lowest comparative prices in West Africa and beyond.”

He gave comparative prices of gasoline in some West African countries as at November 16, 2020 thus: Senegal, N549. Mali, N438, Chad, N368, Sierra Leone, N274, Liberia, N328, Ghana, N325, Cameroon, N446, and many others.

The GMD used the opportunity of the parley to debunk allegations that NNPC failed to remit funds that should accrue to the Federation, and that it illegally withdrew money from the NLNG Dividends Account.

“Such is not possible under the TSA (Treasury Single Account) arrangement,” he posited.

Talking further on the new order of transparency in NNPC, he said President Muhammadu Buhari, who doubles as Minister of Petroleum, “has never made any demand of us, has never asked for a single thing for himself, or for any individual.”

He added: “Anytime I see him, and we need to take a decision, he only asks; ‘is this in the interest of the ordinary Nigerian? Is it in the interest of our country?’ Once we can defend that, he gives approval. Not once has he asked for anything personal.”

In this Nigeria? A President will not give orders to NNPC to cut corners, and bring out millions upon millions of dollars, to fund private projects, or simply stash such money away? This Buhari is sure a strange one, a worthy example of probity, transparency, accountability. No wonder the Hausa man calls him Mai Gaskiya (the honest one).

He was military governor. Oil Minister for over three years. Head of State for 20 months. Chairman, Petroleum Trust Fund. Now President for six years running. Yet, he owns no petrol station, not to talk of an oil bloc. Do they make them like this anymore? I doubt.

I recall a testimony also given by Mr Babatunde Raji Fashola, former two-term Governor of Lagos State, when he was Minister of Power, Works and Housing. He said not once, not even half of a time, did President Buhari ever send anyone to him for patronage of any kind, nor did he show preference for anybody. And I ask again: do they make them like this anymore? I doubt.

A final recall. One night, I had visited the President at home, just on a social call. It was about 8 pm, and just two of us were in his waiting room. The other man is ex-this, ex-that in the country, having held many prominent positions. He told me: “Look at this sprawling place. Only two of us waiting to see the Big Boss. It didn’t use to be like this. This place would be like a market till about 3 am daily, as people come to cut deals, and take a slice of the National cake. But President Buhari does no deal with anyone. That’s why only two of us are here.”

What a man! What testimonies all round! Surely, they don’t make them like this anymore. Or do they?

kingsolium:
Good morning house, pls I need your views and opinions on this subject matter.

Ok, I currently work with an FMCG Coy in Ibadan as an inventory officer where I earn N175k net on a monthly basis. It’s important to state here that I was living in Lagos prior to my getting this FMCG job.

So, I moved to Ibadan 2 months ago and currently put up with a friend in his apartment while I try to figure out how to move my stuffs to Ibadan on relocation basis. But along the line, I got a job with a big agricultural establishment affiliated to a multinational agricultural firm and I’m being offered N259k for a start excluding other benefits such as airtime(15k) which is different from my main salary.

Also note that the N259k is gross so my take home could be around N230k or thereabouts.

Now here’s the challenge. This new job is in Kaduna(the state capital) and I’ve not been to kaduna before. So, house what do you think about this. I need your candid, sincere and factual advice on this matter.

Thank you

I was a KD bread,my school was in kaduna,I am currently in Lagos,If I have an opportunity,I will move to KD as fundly call . Forget about the Media and planted story by some seeking for aslylum abroad.Lagos is not as secure compared to KD. Find accommodation in an estate
