Did he come back with materials to complete his monorail project and his flying locomotive in PHC?

That is why Nigerians must reject Jungle Justice to any suspected criminal, some of it are set up by enemies

Most of the equipment used by Boko Haram came from NATO supplies to Libya rebels to depose Gaddafi. Obama has declared that Libya intervention is his worst mistake in life.

Abacha is just the conduit, the real thieves are western leaders who helped him to move this funds to their countries.
America will return the loot with several conditions (as if it is their money) to the Federal Govt without any accruable interest for 20 years when their banks have gained so much in transacting with the looted funds.

This money was promised to be returned since PMB visited Obama in June 2015 and is just coming now because they fear Buhari is beginning to look east to China, Middle East and probably Russia which will not go down favourably with the West because Nigeria's over dependence on the Dollar will reduce and this will also affect plans by the so called 'port folio' investors from the west to buy off national assets at below actual values.

The above is also making the EU parliament to suddenly decide to intervene on the issue of Nnandi Kanu who is now being called 'EU citizen' and this moves is quite predictable to some of us who are versed in International global politics.
The propaganda has already commenced with the recent EU parliament move seeking to demonize the Federal Government of Nigeria as violating the fundamental human rights of Mr Nnamdi Kanu of IPOB with wide international media publicity just immediately the announcement came that the President has signed an agreement with China for dollar swap and also the resurgent agitation in the western media (CNN, BBC, SKY etc) for the Chibok Girls led by CNN providing an 'exclusive' video which they had since December 2015 as evidence that the girls may be alive are all part of the western media propaganda that we may see coming up in the next weeks.

Nigerians must gear up and know that the west will surely fight back using different means which are public knowledge such as sponsoring terror groups like they did in Syria and Libya to destabilize the country further and for Nigeria it means Boko Haram, IPOB, Niger Delta militancy and Foreign Fulani Herdsmen getting more support and media coverage (same scenario was used in Syria and Libya where jihadists were imported and armed and trained by the Pentagon and CIA for regime changes and removal of the secular Govts of President Bashar Assad and Gaddafi respectively.
Muamar Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein's attempts to dump the Dollar for Gold Dinar and Euro respectively led to the invasion and destabilization of Libya and Iraq and Syria under the guise of 'humanitarian intervention and promotion of Freedom and Democracy' in those countries and Nigeria should beware in shouting out loud about the currency swap with Yuan (RMB).

The West assisted the APC in coming to power in Nigeria with the hope of installing a puppet for Nigeria and would have helped us to destroy our country in 2015 if Jonathan had not accepted defeat like we witnessed in Ivory Coast were France under a spurious UN mandate intervened as 'peacekeepers' to bomb their candidate Alassane Ouatara (a former Director of IMF) to the Presidency when Laurent Gbagbo insisted he won the election which was reaffirmed by the Supreme Court of that country. The French claimed that the judges of the Ivorian Supreme court were made up of Gbagbos friends (but it is a constitutional body no matter how flawed we may think) and the intervention by France to forcefully install Ouatara led to a loss of over 3000 African lives.
Now if we juxtapose the Ivorian situation with Nigeria we should be grateful to GEJ for acceding to the results of that election against his party PDP position that it was flawed with under-aged voting, electoral manipulation etc.

All the claims to recovery of stolen Nigerian funds by the west have yielded little results like this one ($480m out of $150b) instead the media is bombarded with promises of investment by US and EU with little to show for it in terms of infrastructure and job creation.

The IMF has consistently encouraged Nigeria to devalue its currency and take loans from them, suggestions that has been rejected by PMB through the country's Finance Minister Kemi Adeosun in favour of home grown economic models is a good development but will not go down well with the west as its success will encourage other African countries to follow the same path with Nigeria.

Nigerians should know that the progress of this nation will not go down well with some powerful nations who think they are losing out and may use those elements that has always divided us to foment trouble such as our Tribal and Religious differences, but we should not be as foolish as some Arabs who fell for the trick of US led 'Freedom and Democracy' during the CIA instigated Arab Spring to destroy a very stable country like Libya which had the highest standard of living of living in Africa under the 'Brutal Dictator Gaddafi Regime' using western media demonization lexicon to describe leaders they dont like; if PMB continues to seek closer partnership with the east, we should not be surprised when foreign media start referring to him as Nigeria brutal dictator despite him being democratically elected.

We should not fall for any propaganda, let America and the west return all our stolen funds, after all its not their money, they only condition should be that a credible body of eminent incorruptible Nigerians should be constituted to monitor how the funds are spent.
We may be going through a difficult phase but if we believe Nigeria will be great again.
The Federal Govt needs to monitor closely the kind of information passed through BBC and VOA Hausa radio Services since it is the most popular medium for news in the North but have led to riots in the past through incisive broadcasts on the BBC.

The EU parliament intervention at this point is not a surprise as some of us have rightly predicted. The West helped the APC in coming to power in Nigeria and would have helped them to destroy the country if Jonathan had not accepted defeat like we witnessed in Ivory Coast were France under a spurious UN mandate intervened as 'peacekeepers' to bomb their candidate Alassane Ouatara (whose parents were from Burkina Faso and he is a former Director of IMF) to the Presidency when Laurent Gbagbo insisted he won the election as was reaffirmed by the Supreme Court of that country. The French claimed that the judges of the Ivorian Supreme court were made up of Gbagbos friend (but it is a constitutional body no matter how flawed we may think) and the intervention by France to forcefully install Ouatara led to a loss of over 3000 African lives.
Now if we juxtapose the Ivorian situation with Nigeria we should be grateful to GEJ for acceding to the results of that election against his party PDP position that it was flawed with under-aged voting etc.
Fast-forward to 2016, the favourite candidate of the West Muhammadu Buhari started his presidency with visits to western capitals as a form of solidarity, but he is fully aware that there is nothing much to gain from there in terms of economic development of Nigeria and they are mostly good at making promises on paper, any grant, aid or loan from them is filled with stringent conditions that are never favourable to Africa.
All the claims to recovery of stolen Nigerian funds by the west have not yieleded positive results instead the media is bombarded with promises of investment by US and EU and provision of assistance in the fight against Boko Haram and IDPs issue, its getting to one year of this govt but this western nations are not keeping to their words.
PMB in his wisdom decided to look east (China) and probably Russia will be next which will not go down favourably with the West because Nigerias over dependence on the Dollar will reduce and this will also affect plans by the so called 'port folio' investors from the west.
Refusal by Nigeria to take loans from the IMF is another pain in the backside of the West whom we know will surely fight back using differnt means which are public knowledge such as sponsoring terror groups like in Syria and Libya to destabilize the country further and for Nigeria it means Boko Haram and the so called Fulani Herdsmen who are mostly foreigners (same scenario was used in Syria where jihadists were imported through Jordan and Turkey and armed and trained by the Pentagon and CIA for regime change and removal of the secular Govt of President Bashar Assad.
Muamar Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein's attempts to dump the Dollar for Gold Dinar and Euro respectively led to the invasion and destabilization of Libya and Iraq and Syria under the guise of 'humanitarian intervention and promotion of Freedom and Democracy' in those countries.

All Nigerians need from this Govt is reconciliation of aggrieved citizens, equal opportunities and progress. We should not fall for any propaganda, we may be going through a difficult phase but if we believe Nigeria will be great, there should be no talk of Nigerian Spring. The Federal Govt needs to monitor closely the kind of information passed through BBC Hausa Service since it is the most popular medium for news in the North and have led to riots in the past through incisive broadcasts on the BBC.

I give you an excerpt of John Perkins (Economic Hit man)

John Perkins in his book – CONFESSIONS OF AN ECONOMIC HIT MAN in which he said “Economic hit men (EHMs) are highly paid professionals who can cheat countries around the globe out of trillions of dollars. They funnel money from the World Bank, the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), and other foreign “aid” organizations into the coffers of huge corporations and the pockets of a few wealthy families who control the planet’s natural resources. Their tools include fraudulent financial reports, rigged elections, payoffs, extortion, sex, and murder. …..I should know; I was an EHM……Jaime Roldos, president of Ecuador, and Omar Torrijos, president of Panama both had just died in fiery crashes. Their deaths were not accidental. They were assassinated because they opposed that fraternity of corporate, government, and banking heads whose goal is global empire. We EHMS failed to bring Roldos and Torrijos around,and the other type of hit men, the CIA – sanctioned jackals who were always right behind us, stepped in.
“……Because of my fellow EHMs and me, Ecuador is in far worse shape today than she was before we introduced her to the miracles of modern economics, banking, and engineering. Since 1970, during this period known euphemistically as the Oil Boom, the official poverty level grew from 50 to 70 percent, under – or unemployment increased from 15 to 70 percent, and public debt increased from $240 million to $16 billion.

…….Third World debt has grown to more than $2.5 trillion, and the cost of servicing it – over $375 billion per year as of 2004 – is more than all Third World spending on health and education, and twenty times what developing countries receive annually in foreign aid….” With this background of American insatiable quest for global economic domination established by an American, who was an insider.

uduak2016:
Very smart fellow. I have observed after reading most comments on here that most Nigerians are oblivious of history. I'm certain you have read the book The Confessions of An Economic Hit Man. In all honesty, I see IPOB movement gaining momentum any moment from now as you said, even on CNN. Same with Kanu exposure to all foreign media! I said this before and will say it...there are strong forces in the world behind Nnamdi Kanu, that's why he is that bold, insults anybody including Camer0n and 0bama, and still got visa to enter US. Lol! His bodyguards and security detail about 4 or 5 are foreign intelligence trained I read...follows him around the world even in his kitchen. Lol! He is very certain IPOB will come...he is 100% certain. He knows Buhari can do him nothing otherwise I'm sure DSS would had silenced him under their custody months back. Those forces wants him in jail, so when he comes out, you have another Mandela, and the jinx is up for Nigeria. Someone, a very smart fellow also explained this in detail...he was spot on!

herbie27:
Lagarde is good and that's why she occupies that position.
.

Wrong: She is there because America will not allow a non westerner to occupy the position. Google it

Evil woman. The worst mistake Buhari will make is to listen to this woman. They are unhappy about the agreement with China on Yuan currency and have started the propaganda war with CNN dedicating so much time on Chigbogu Girls and Boko Haram to make us look bad.

She was sent here recently with the same agenda by the West to force PMB to devalue the Naira, when it failed they are now on propaganda mission; the same kind of propaganda they used in hoodwinking the Arabs to destroy their stable countries such as Libya and Syria with 'Freedom and Democracy' led by Hillary Clinton which the Arabs who are now refugees in Europe are regretting today.

Greece and Portugal are in serious financial crisis, why is IMF not asking that the Euro should be devalued because of Greece?

Beremx:
Chinese president does not know fayose. he is inconsequential!

A State Governor with diplomat passport cannot be inconsequential; western countries abroad know their value and court them so that they can come deposit illicit funds in their banks.
Its like saying a Saudi Prince is inconsequential when you know that he sits at the highest level meetings in the country just like being a member of National economic council which has Buhari as chairman. You writing here is the inconsequential one.

ArchiPelago1:
If you execute a successful coup, who is going to try you for season?.. You expected Buhari to charge Buhari for Treason?... But if your coup isn't successful, you can be HELD accountable for treason.

Burkina faso is trying Blaise Campaore for coup and murder against Thomas Sankara, this is no excuse

Are we a beggar nation. Why all the borrow borrow, if Buhari has recovered over $2b from stolen funds why go to borrow another $2b from China when you are servicing debt annually with 25% of GDP?

Joel3:
.we really do not need that loan. what about money recovered from corruption and the trillion tax they made last year from single Treasury account?

APC and their LIES. The recovered just very small money and they are making so much noise, now we know the truth thats why they keep borrowing everywhere.

Acceptance fee of N50,000 must be paid before candidates can cleard to commenced registration for academic activities. The clearance excercise will commence on 11th April 2016 at the schoo premises.

Simple English they cannot SPOKE like Oshiomole and they want N710,000. Ndi Ara!

Go and buy the Yuan at N34. Why bother too much about dollar when most of your imports come from China.
You need Dollar because you want to repatriate profit to Europe and America; reinvest the money here in Nigeria; this is just one of the very few areas I support Buhari.

If you want to see breasts go to Swaziland reed festival. Nothing unusual here, it is an epic movie and she played her role well. Many communities in Africa still have women going around bare chested in traditional attire. It becomes an issue and nudity when you mix it with western culture.

The MOD who posted this Aluko story is at the same level of mental reasoning as Aluko.
NLers have agreed that Aluko story should no longer be posted on FP and why repeating it here

CHIJIOKE1314:
You and I know how much we love and cares for each other, whether we are at home or abroad we always lookout for one another.. Anywhere we meet ourselves the first thing we do us to organize a meeting to address our common challenges..

But these ppl won't have any of that as they will always enlarge any news, especially those that divide us more and rub them to our faces, just with intentions to always divide us..it is upto us to reject this and say to there faces, "NEVER AGAIN!! "

Kindly go back to that ur first message and edit that ur assertion cos that's exactly what they want to achieve.. Except u r OK with giving it to them..

Dont mind the Rusted Brown Roof people who are always looking for ways to smear anything Igbo in the media. They expand any negative news about Igboland. The writer is from a rusted brown roof village bearing a.k.a Emeka.

Igbos have gone beyond this level; they should be focused on national policitics and how to bring Federal projects to Igboland.
Is Osu and caste still an issue in Igboland in this era? The youths there need to wise up and stop fighting themselves for old men who are nearing their graves over a quarrel and system which they dont know how it started.

I can smell Rusted Brown Roof Area people hand in spreading this local (2 fighting) news to the national level media to smear the Igbos. How can a State Govt like Enugu approve a constitution for a village that is discriminatory?

Any Igbo youth who involves himself or herself on issues like this is bastardic and cursed when Northern youths like Abdulmumuni at the National Assembly are diverting projects (down to town halls and boreholes) to their villages and you allow yourselves to be divided and ruled in your poverty stricken infrastructure-less villages.

Igboland needs infrastructure and development and not some archaic rules or beliefs which has divided the people into fighting themselves locally while the North and South West scramble for the national cake at the center.
Igbos cannot be fooled again, anyone here who have relations in that community in Nsukka should put a call to them to end the quarrel now and tell them the current realities in Nigeria.

Vikings007:
$2billion not $2million oga.

But America told him that $150b of stolen Nigerian money is in their country. Why wont America just give PMB $2b from the money there?

worksmart:
Scam us ?
Has the west not been scamming us for decades?
How have we progressed with western partnership and loans?

China even if they scam us could be no worst than what we are already experiencing through our decades of partnership with the West.

You make sense. The West has actually scammed us for years, my suggestion should be for us to really shine our eyes and not TRUST China fully on this loan. The devil is always in the details.

Has any of the arrested Boko Haram comanders given any information about the Chigbogu girls?

Project400:
We hardly read any news about Oyo state and the middle belt. What's wrong?

Fulani herdsmen are holding them to ransom

She was perhaps assaulted for not arresting enough commercial taxi drivers for egunje settlement to the DPO. Her daily returns were abysmally low. No be Nigeria Police wey we know?

Pipeline vandals will be dealth with same way like Boko Haram while Fulani herdsmen will be treated with Silence - Buhari

Modified: Even in America personal lives of the children of their politicians is a NO GO area. A woman resigned from her job the other time for a post on Facebook about Obamas daughter Malia dressing.

You can attack the President or Vice anyday as we do here daily by calling them (Dullard, Clueless, Wailer, Zombie, Baba Go slow, Otuoke fisherman etc) but not their family members except if they are holding a public office.

Bobby wey men like pass everything from birth to adulthood na him she go burn. She no see any other thing to burn na bobby chaiii!
Na wetin her boyfriend, husband, son go suck now? Chaaiii! e no good ooooo!

Chaii! even Baby Obama wept.

OlujobaSamuel:
who will select the interim administration?
I love your contributions sir, although I don't know you, but pls proffer a workable solution, this is Nigeria, where anything can happen in less than an hour, not to talk of weeks.

Okijajuju1:
Who be Sule? Who e don epp?

You dont know Maitama Sule (Danmasanin Kano)?
Indomie Generations spotted ;

This is why history should be taught in our schools including adding the Civil War to the curriculum, so that the new generation will know where the country is coming from.

I dont feel it is graphic when confirmed BAD guys are eliminated. How can I feel graphic for a suicide bomber whose bomb detonated as they are packaging it or an armed who kills another man for his property.

Now Senators in the South know why their counterparts in the North find it easy to get reelected, they allocate projects to their consequences through the FG budget including Town Halls and ordinary boreholes.

Dangote knows how to play it safe, he finances both the ruling and opposition parties; so that anyone that wins will not come after him. He pays the bill for APC and at the same time for PDP. He is a crafty guy.

PUSH1:
construction and rehabilitation of the works centre, N100m;
construction of town hall, N100m;
block of classrooms, undisclosed;
rehabilitation of Sharada - Kwanar Dogara, N1.445bn;
solar street lights, N300m;
drainage, N20m;
rehabilitation of Gwarzo Kiru, Kwanar Maiyaki, N180m;
Kiru - Badaf road construction, N405m;
rehabilitation and construction of roads in Kiru/Bebeji, N150m, and
construction of pedestrian bridges, N200m.

In the ministry of water resources, there are eight projects, namely:
construction of earth dam, N1m;
construction of 10 hand-pump boreholes in Bagauda, N10m;
small irrigation schemes in Kiru, N100m;
construction of Bebeji earth dam, N270m;
construction of solar powered boreholes, N150m;
outstanding projects of 2014 in Kiru Bebeji, N100m and
provision of hand-pump boreholes and water scheme, N38.023m.

Only one person allocated this to his constituency and it was not even captured in the initial budget. I know that communities in the South do launching and levy themselves to build Town Halls while in the North it is the FG that does everything for them.

The Naivete of Southern Senators and Honourables has been exposed by the North. Now they are seeing how politics is being played; I will not blame Sen Ben Bruce and Akpabio because they are still greenhorns in the Senate but now I am sure their eyes don open.

IdomaLikita:
Underestimate a Northerner at your own risk.
All of a sudden, Murray-Bruce has gone mute. Ewu.
While he was singing praises for Innoson and Made-in-Aba shoes, his Northern compatriots were closely scrutinising the budget..now that the dice have been cast, which pat of the budget goes into funding the manufacturing sector where innoson and Aba peeps belong?

The Southern Senators are too shocked to speak, they thought they could TRUST their Northern counterparts; the SW has been keeping quiet also as the Lagos - Calabar project benefits them also.
Imagine a Honourable putting N4.9b into the budget for his constituency and Ben Murray Bruce could not add anything for Bayelsa and Aba where he is asking to buy Made in Naija.
