PDP South East becomes Deputy Senate President....hmmmm.... There shall be turbulent times ahead for Nigerians |
I have seen a lot of bile been thrown the way of Bola Ahmed Tinubu with respect to politics in Nigeria but we all need to understand that we all behave like Tinubu, one way or the other. The only thing i see with this man is Protectionism. Simply Protecting what he has a Stake in. You all have to be aware that Saraki is PDP through and through and was never part of the formation of APC. Saraki only had a problem with GEJ & not PDP. Saraki only used APC to return to Senate as PDP wld not have nominated him and without Kwara, GMB would have still won the election anyway. Tinubu is just ensuring that only those who staked into the risk of a new party should be the 1st in line to benefit from it. He is also ensuring that there must always be a Power Block that any other group must come and negotiate with to actualise their own dreams, so, whats his offence, at least we can see how other regions are struggling becos they do not have formidable power blocs. What a lot of people do not realise is that Tinubu is not a threat to Buhari but wants to ensure that other groups do not hijack or pose a threat to him |
Babymama1:As a Christian Married Couple, the Bible confirms you can have sex during Fasting! 1 Corinthians 7:2 -7 |
It is easy to be free with the Plebs (Ordinary) people cos its easy to fool them with handouts and lots of Hip Hop Hooray (Noise making......remember empty barrels make most noise) Can anyone please show me where Fayose has called together a gathering of serious people and addressed them accordingly? I am yet to see a proper meaninful interaction by this Gov. We only see him with people that can be easily bought with little change.....Plebs; Students; Marketwomen; Traditional rulers; Touts; Politicians; Danfo Unions and such like. 3& half years will soon be over & there shall be plenty lamentations by Ekiti pple |
olamonsor2:Can you educate us further on the fraud aspect pls or CBN is just amplifying that to justify a bad policy? |
adonismuller:I was prevented from accessing my company account at StanbicIBTC Bank because i hadnt provided BVN number |
eluquenson:How is that so? In my opinion, its very draconian and should be revisited. It will likely lead to loss of customers by Banks if its carried out to the letter e.g, why do i need more than 1 account when i can only withdraw a limit of $300 a day per BVN. That means all the =N= Master & Visa cards that i have for my Savings and Current accounts are useless for that day as i am only entitled to use 1 per day, so whats the use of maintaining accounts with several other banks even though i can use them on PoS |
emmasege:Fayemi is on vacation, thats why he is relaxed. Osinbajo is tensed, as he knows people like you are there with your expectations on one hand and dagger on the other hand. If you look at GMB also, his face was squeezed up all through! The weight is enormous. You have 2 guys about to take the mantle of office who have no interest in "eating" your money. Its not in their DNA. What we need to do is to support them totally |
In structured environments, this is simply handled electronically. All Traffic Lights along his route in advance of a few minutes to his arrival at each intersection go "Green" and others stay "Red" and once he goes past, they go Red immediately |
Emirofsambisa1:Tosin Abbey Phillip was not icluded in this list. She stood for elections in Leeds for Labour Part but lost
|
alobam1:It's just what is convenient and comfortable for him. All he needs is to have several of them. The need to dressing based on geopolitical zones you visit and for a wardrobe manager thus becomes irrelevant and saves cost. GMB and PYO are about business of Govt. All those unnecessary razzmatazz don follow GEJ go Otuoke |

13th Month Salary is what is meant |
Filmewell:The puzzle is very simple! All those who have worked with this woman know she doesnt do deals. Its just that she might finally want to return to Lagos to be with her husband after long years flying back and forth Abuja or else GMB wld give her job sharp sharp as she is the type he wants to work with. You cannot not find in any probe report, whether National Assembly or PWC, that PEF was found wanting. The woman is straigthforward and strict. Even Marketers will tell you that she no collect egunje from them |
Ifeanyi Ubah don align sharp sharp with the incoming Abia Governor |
Depressing! How can he give such pieces of advice to an already prudent person like GMB whilst the person, GEJ, he pledges lifetime loyalty to was the most wasteful leader in Nigeria, someone who boasted of the number of Private Jets owned by Nigerians so much that we were the butt of jokes of the Kenyans. Why he never gave these pieces of advice to GEJ is obvious as he was heavily benefitting too! Ben Murray Bruce does not have moral or professional standing to give anybody pieces of advice becasuse the state of NTA is an indication of his plundering of govt money |
Its unfortunate that the depth of reasoning in Nigeria is very shallow. People need to understand a few things and its as simple as this: (1) Hadiza, in her own right, at a Youthful age has engaged in the quest for good governance in Nigeria without recourse to public funds. Nigerians need to come to terms that some people still do what they love to do without money being the motivating factor. I can tell you that GMB & Prof Osinbajo are not in govt because of money. But GMB is motivated by Power but Power with control as he knows he needs to be in hold of that power to effect changes that will be good for Nigeria on the long run. Can he succeed? He will strive to, but many bobby traps and mine fields along the way. (2) Hadiza was a commited member of CPC and later APC which she is entitled to, based on her political leanings. (3) BBOG is a movt that arose out of the need to provide a platform to highlight the plight of an unfortunate group of people and they succeeded in keeping the flame burning. Is it their responsibility to rescue or negotiate the release of the girls? NO! People need to realise that BBOG is symbolic and a catalyst to restore human concern in cold hearted Nigerians whom majority now see calamity as business as usual. BBOG is a symbol that we should shout from the roof top against injustice of any form. (4) Our dormant; compromised National Assembly should have even used the oppurtunity presented by BBOG, to raise and pass bills that will provide punishment for negligence of duty of care. The uncorcern shown by Nigerians have given impetus to more abduction; weekly kidnapping; slaughters in the Middle Belt states of Plateau; Benue and Nassarawa. (5) Is Hadiza wrong to have whilst bn a member of APC, also created BBOG? Is there a conflict of interest? NO! (6) Was Hadiza picked from BBOG or APC to be in the transition group? It matters not, neither is it a reward ala GEJ style.......its simply for what she has to offer Nigeria, pls be grateful for people like Hadiza; Oby Ezekwesili; GMB; Prof Osinbajo and others who have given of themselves to serve the community Nigeria without fear or favour as their lives are not influenced or dictated by the =N= & Kobo that some kill themselves to enter govt for |
booqee:Chevron in Lekki to Shoprite in Surulere is approximately 39km. Is that doable in a 12 hour day? Yes. Taking into account that fatigue sets in and he might drop in speed, it is scientifically doable |
KingEbukasBlog:People need to realise that these young Ladies are just living their normal lives like anybody else their age by posting their pix on their own Social Media spaces.....Its people like Linda and hungry bloggers who are invading their private spaces in order to make money. Please let the poor girls be and do not put unnecessary pressure upon them |
linsa01:The 100,000 bags came from the governor himself and was reported then & mind you, the =N=1billion is a conservative estimate becos a bag of 50kg Rice was =N=13k at that time but with volume discount, wld be less, then factor cost of haulage; storage; distribution; bags; chicken; vegetable oil and others too inconsequential to mention I pray i never experience poverty & thats why i am applying my common sense in all matters. Fortunately enough, i have engaged myself in direct activities targeted at the poor and needy.....I still have my pictures from Makoko. Assisted with raising money for Dustbin village in Ijora here in Lagos. What i am saying is that do not let your Gov fool you....if Fayemi got away wt it, do not let ds man get away wt it......Becos Fayemi did it doesnt mean its acceptable for another to come and do his own turn |
Acidosis:Companies share Rice and its no big deal. Fashola has no business in this discussion and is prudent in his administration.....he will never blow state funds on frivolities Back to Fayose, it is economically destructive for him to blow =N=1billion on Christmas Rice and as i have written, looking at it reasonably, Ekiti could not have received 100,000 bags of Rice over Christmas, do you know the logistics of delivering 100,000 bags of Rice? Where are the warehouses to keep them? Who bears the cost of storage etc.....make una continue make he dey fool u o! |
Tibins:Pls help me further with the shaded area.......Contract to produce furniture worth =N=1.2b to be used by who? Schools? Hospitals? Govt offices? Was an audit of needs carried out to determine the gap in furniture requirments of Ekiti state? Was it that the furniture never existed where they are needed now? & since furniture dont stay on their own but within housing structure, that means there must be a lot of buildings built by someone in the past that need furnishing.....thats a lot of unfurnished buildings....i wonder who built them? Or is this contract a media hype? =N=1.2billion ![]() |
linsa01:If Fayemi did wrong, he should be reprimanded, but Fayemi's wrong does not make Fayose's wrong right. Poverty is not reduced by handouts, Poverty is reduced by authorities putting in place structures that initiate and sustain growth for years. If you think giving out rice in black nylon bags and handing them chicken at Christmas which they finished consuming in 1 week and they remain poor for the remaining 51 weeks is the way to go, good luck to you and your co-travellers. & for your calculation, the claim that Fayose bought and gave out 100,000 bags at Christmas is complete hogwash.......pls show me how many warehouses you have in Ekiti to contain 100,000bags of rice. Try and calculate how many trailers would have brought the Rice into Ekiti..... Figure out the logistics of distributing 100,000 bags to the 4 corners of Ekiti, then you will begin to realise you have been sold a stinking dummy. I repeat, an investment of that Rice =N-1billion, inot housing would have benefited Ekiti beyond just one Christmas....you obviously dont know what =N=1billion is, no disrespect to you |
Edwardhead:Hating Fayose or not living in Ekiti is not the issue.......some people are just trying to highlight, as observers, wot the rabid supporters of Fayose refuse to see. Call me a Hater or not, i do not support any Governor blowing over =N=1billion on Rice over a few days of Christmas..ditto for Ram during Sallah in the North and so on.....If u quantify what =N=1billion can do to Ekiti State, you will be angry with Fayose for frittering it away on Rice.....lets see how he will sustain it for 4 Christmas' |
apeoyemojo: Unfortunately, IKEA dont make furniture that expensive |
Lets look at this reasonably and logically. If Fayose had invested the =N=1billion he blew on Rice at Christmas into a housing project....=N=1billion will easily give you 500pieces of 2 bedroom flats in Ekiti.......Pls tell me how many people as a result of that will likely patronise the bedseller A govt's responsibility is to create market spaces that will take a life of its own and blossom, not grandstanding and showmanship for the cameras |
Chai!!! Poverty of mind is a deadly thing!!! The same man bending down with them "forming" grassroot is the same man who blew over =N-1billion of their money on Rice in a few days of Christmas frenzy. Fayose blew over =N=1billion on Rice in less than 1 week & these people are celebrating him stopping by local bedside maker, not realising that he has blown away enough money to make Ekiti relevant for the next 10 years!!! Continue hailing grassroot o!! |
35 pages WoW!!! Every country has its pecularities & every National of that country has their Pride. My 1st visit to South Africa was in 2003 and the next visit thereafter was 10 years after & the development has been tremendous starting from OR Thambo. A lot of people on this thread cannot appreciate the difference in the transportation system between that 2003 and 2013. Its bn phenomenal.I stayed at Protea Centurion in 2003 & i only visited again on 2nd April 2015......the difference to the area is highly commendable. I was invited to Busy Corner last Sunday the Shisanyama was so delicious that i started enquiring about getting a Franchise Pilanesberg and Suncity are favourite destinations of mine & driving through the Hartbeespoort dam on the way back from Suncity just blew my mind. Food variety in SA is vast, diverse and enjoyable, except that my tatse buds didnt align with the Tripe, but give me Oxtail; Chuck; Hake; Calamari; Sea Bass; Lamb Chops; Baby Chicken anyday and i would love u forever I have taken time to unwind at GRC; Montecasino & such like. I have also taken time to visit Soweto (Vilakazi etc but Hector Pieterson museum gave me the creeps...i was not myself for the rest of the day, so u understand why i have not visited the Apartheid Museum) Driven through Thembisa and Thokoza so i have a bit of a fair idea of Township and Squata camps. Townships are organised...infact Soweto reminds me of Ebute Metta in Lagos for its roads that criss cross one another. Places in Lagos that are akin to townships are Ebutte Metta; Ajegunle; Olodi Apapa; Ketu; Ojota; Oworonshoki; Bariga; Mushin and Squata camps are like Makoko; Ijora Badiya; the shacks close to 3rd mainland bridge. Surburbs are like Ogudu; Ilupeju; Surulere; Yaba etc. People live in any of these 3 categories based on circumstances whether in Nigeria; South Africa; Ghana or whereever else. Instead of bashing each other, how can you in your respective country make a difference? Lastly, with respect to the topic, i will make reference specifically to SA women that i have interacted with both Professional & Non Professional.....I know a lot of Nigerian men are attracted to the physique of the SA women but remember that some like it big and some like it moderate so size does not confer advantage and same applies to the mens joystick or eggplant as well. My observation 1: A few SA ladies i have interacted with are not reliable wt keeping appointments..........as i said, its my observation and not neccesarily the norm. My observation 2: In comparison to our own Nigerian culture specific to where i come from (Yoruba tribe) SA Ladies drink a lot & i find it concerning, again, i refer to where i come from becos i understand women from a particular part of Nigeria drink like fish. In summary, SA is a beautiful place and i look forward to visiting again as i see a lot of business oppurtunities here which we are already tapping into. If i come across any of you Ladies who have been commenting, pls treat me well and not hang me by my sentiments...lol ![]() |
All these attempts to romanticize and paint GEJ in good colours does not hold water at all! Let the truth be told, GEJ was incompetent; inefficient & took decisions with impunity and mischief (Alams pardon; Koro's nomination) and thats why majority of you and i who voted him in as President in 2011, voted him out in 2015. Period! A man who abused Buhari in his 1st campaign in Lagos; refused to caution FFK, Fayose's poisonous, toxic, venomous, deadly, lethal, death-dealing adverts and statements & had no control over his wife as she continously spewed hostile, spiteful, venomous, vicious, vindictive, bitter, scathing, abusive, mean, nasty, aggressive, savage and harsh comments upon Buhari. GEJ heightened tension to the same level that he is now been hailed to have prevented (we saw OPC in action in Lagos....it was authorised mayhem). Pls, Nigerians should stop this arrant nonsense of "Heroism". Its a normal practice for any rational being! |
GBTYO:He has ended up as your Vice President!!!! Live with that!!!!! |
