Frankly if there is any Governor that seems to hurt my feelings towards APC... Kogi Governor falls into that category the most. That man continues to fail in his duty.

Honestly am disappointed with him and the way he even spends time on things that really do not directly impact the majority in the state ehn!

Meeeennnnn !!! Sweet mother... chai why are people so heartless. Your mother! what nonsense

KINGOFTHEEAST:
hypocrite

Your are the bigger hypocrite here...Sitting on your hands and accusing someone for not doing your work.

Do you know how many times we have cried out to the Buhari govt about Fulani killer through every means possible but the govt has failed to act because of nepotism but once the report is against the victims the govt quickly acts ... This govt is very bias when it comes to handling such issues and you know it that's why you are gloating this Saturday morning

No one is gloating about nothing here...Often people don't do the right thing. Lets look at this how does a president in Abuja tell a force man in Taraba or other places not to act especially where the law men are made of all faith and tribe in a single brew. How will he achieve that? An order is not sufficient,we have heard of Maiduguri where the security men protest over allowances.I didn't here anyone ask them to do that! It goes to show you that not all negligence matter becomes the fault of government. Atimes the enforcers fail to be professional and it has nothing to do with the kind of rhetoric people spew.

Although a start is report it to the appropriate quarters first with facts and then see it through rather than all the diversions and making of issues more complicated than expected.We have become so use to complicating things and helping the culprits escape under the clog of blaming everything on politics and ethno-religious mentality.

KINGOFTHEEAST:
equally show us evidence you have reported him as you did the other guy

As your PA or desk officer? Will you do the needful and help yourself to twitter ....

#DOITYOURSELF #LAZYYOUTH

Abubakarsiddeeq:

Ohk

Nice one and thanks for doing the needful. Meanwhile he @FarahAideed should do it himself. He spent time writing lines complaining here but forgot or suddenly lost his coordination to use same social media to report a crime to the authority.

You have try jor! We should learn to do what is right when its right....

FarahAideed:


Did you also report the other MOPOL up there threatening to kill people and many other people on Facebook who post such nonsense too? Or did you report this one because he is not from your tribe or religion ? Please report that MOPOL up there

As he just showed you the right legal way to go about handling such matters is that not enough for you to try on your own.Do it yourself oga sir nobody is stopping except you! Abi you get leprosy when it comes to acting through legal means.

People just run all over the place with claims assumptions and evil mind set without doing what is right first. Even reporting the matter. Someone took the bull by the horn to avert another carnage or likely series of reprisals and all you see is your own issues. You have already failed to act and handle the issues objectively.

Atleast now that you have gotten the idea use it rather than wait on him or ask him to do it for you.LAZY YOUTH

Yet some people say they have no choice to vote for....!
Name it o..youth dey, former minister,elderly,professors,former governors,different works of life...with swag or without wag,black fair,xtian, Muslim,southerner,northerner, middle belt,SE,SW,SS,Biafran etc.

46 persons already available for the picking. Come pick ya own!

@ chairman bera get ready to accept him o. because I doubt APC wanna keep him any longer. The sooner a handover is completed the better...!

Amitez:


So, you want to blame IGP for the botched coup d-etat. When he rigged Kano state for Buhari, he was efficient abi?

Oga sir, abi madam! Soloman Arase was the IGP then and not Idris!!! Don't get where you are coming from neither do I understand the lies above.

APC should simply do them the honors and expel the two or any other member of the party as involved.They continue to clearly engage in anti-party activities and the APC continues to watch them without penalizing them. Also they will keep destroying the party from within.Teh way APC is acting they may even encourage more defections.

They have never being with APC, especially Saraki. Don't give them any glory act now! Stop acting cowardly and expel them now! So you can count your loses and start remediation. It's best you accept where you stand and make amends. All the delays or playing into there game will not change the equation.It is obvious and clearly open secret abegiii!

Meanwhile the IGP needs to be fired frankly. That man will kill APC with his poor handling of many internal security matters in the nation.I won't blame the army because they are not suppose to be out there.If the police handled its roles effectively than always melting away or shying away from its fundamental objective of internal security,alot will be better.

Amberon11:
Hahahahahah This ishaq Akintola is truly a raving mad man.

They have not even asked them to write exam on Christianity yet (like the Nigeria police force mandates everyone including Christians to write Arabic and Islamic exams) and they are crying.

I always knew Muslims could never take half the sheet they dish out to Christians.

Besides this is fake news. Allow the staff to complain, not you.

Personally I think it's the other way around. CAN was in the habit of doing same always calling everything an Islamic plot or agenda. Now that everyone has join the act. Perhaps is a matter of time before both religion realize that they both need to have mutual respect for others.Also allow us have peace.We now have so called activist from both faith (Particularly CAN & MURIC) that will keep picking and pushing at each other for so called equal stake or fairness/justice. I know both faith talk about tolerance,respect for others and sacrifice for one another.

I told a friend back in the days. Alot of Schools observed the Lords prayers and many of us pray in the xtian manner regardless of being Muslim and xtian student. Parents hardly cared and students only saw it as normal.My dad as a Muslim told me to join the boys scout or boys brigade in school. No one cared because even the moral content all pointed to good moral values that speak to both Muslims and Xtians.

A year back I attended a Xtian wedding of my very good friend since child hood. All I heard was ranting about Muslims taking there women with material things and a whole lot more.That would translate to mistrust.Alot has changed over time,that people will frown at the way others go about there faith.All in the name of becoming more religiously aware.We have gradually turn extremist,fanatics,ethnocentric & bigots

It should not be Misunderstood because it happens on both sides.We are becoming religiously intolerable and religiously bias. I wonder what happened to Being your neighbor's keeper.Now a days its about worldly religious conquest and envy. They want to dominate us or we need to protect our own.

As for me is not about who brought the message but rather did you get the message!!!!

iyandaoluwaoba:
At times I marvel at how people respond to issues on nairaland. Don't y'all know the problem we all have started from this shitty electoral process. Most of us are already disenfranchised before the election because of the rigorous process of getting a PVC. All this get your PVC shit don't matter to people that want to hustle and feed. People are not seriously thinking I swear. You all need to listen to educative programs on radio like petals FM Ibadan. Esp meastro programs early in the morning. Its a shame a state like ekiti has a governor with just 197000 voters. When we have close to 2 million people there. The common sense guy is trying to think of a way whereby it will be easy for us all to vote. You can think of that and propose a good solution too. I prefer bvn though. Its the only thing we trust at the most critical stage of our lives which is cash. We can support that with Nigerian passport and PVC too.

Is not about the disenfranchise but about using text message as a reliable alternative.Expecting to stop people from selling votes or lying about there bio data as capture in records through phone records.

Also won't that expose Nigeria to the era of the best paid and professional hacker determines the winner abi president or governors etc....?

Although not a bad idea it is worse than the current arrangement. How can INEC check information integrity. At thee moment the best method is still manual for information integrity.

Lastly will the phone line tell you the citizen of the voter? I mean that is if other bio data were not captured wrongly. I get why the senator is talking he may have seen his own way of rigging without having to pay many people but hack it from a single source.

I salute your idea. But we never reach that's all I can say. As for vote selling,Only the electorate can stop that. Whether na by phone or the current arrangement, if i say I go sell vote to anyone.How do you stop me, since I am not complaining.

ChiefAzubuike:
I was in that court live. It was so heart breaking seeing the poor boy just break down like that. I even felt like crying for him. I pity am sha but I can't blame him. The country is so hard anyone would do anything for money. After judgement was passed, we whisked him away to a different location to remand him in our custody. I really wish he could be given a second chance at life. He doesn't deserve this treatment at all.

Your pity should be with the victim.How she was killed and how she will be missed by her family and friends is enough to make you hang that fool. How she will not be there to fulfill her own dreams because someone was so wicked and daft to kill another person to make money.I mean she was about graduating and am sure her parents had expectations for her to also succeed in life and here she is dead because of him.

I have no remorse or pity for him and I wish he suffers too. Her crime was to probably trust him,love and be with him. Today she is paid back in a violent way by someone who should ordinarily be protecting her as a normal boyfriend would. I even feel he should be stripped of the so called boyfriend status. He is just ritualistic and an opportunist/fraud.

He deserves what ever he gets QED. Although I hope it's fair to the victim and her family. As for the family they have lost a loved one and its really sad. May her soul and many others rest in Peace.God have mercy on us all and guide us away from man or devils evil whisper.

See Fayose caption
"Strong Reliable Rugged"

Reminds me of "I am in pains...!!!"

Strong doesn't go with crying
Reliable doesn't go with losing/failing
Rugged doesn't go with broken neck/arm

Just saying sha!!!

Regardless APC can do something. Asking him to decamp is not the only way.I though there are penalties for anti party activities APC should take the bull by the horn.They should sanction any member with anti-party activity where it's proven.They can suspend or expel them for there anti party activities.

It is obvious some folks have remain in the APC to sabotage it or remain the conduit for negotiations/opportunity.They may also be doing so to ensure they don't lose out incase plan A fails. It is up to APC to find and clean all those with anti-party tendency.

Don't expect them to decamp like that,cos some are like thick. They will suck the host until they kill it...

TYPICAL and EXPECTED!!!!

They hardly lose quietly....

Frankly some of is action seems like he believes Ekiti people are so low life they crave for crumbs from him anytime he needs them for his bidding. Atimes when I see somethings its not dignifying frankly. Why not increase the pay package and pay up the salaries rather than the make over.

Wallade:


Brother, don't misunderstand Ben Bruce: GEJ commissioned that project based on Ben Bruce information and from the pictures attached. He only accused the PBM government of commissioning the project again and I agree that it was not necessary to recommission again.

Yes, PMB govt completed the project and we must appreciate PMB administration for that achievement but there was no need to commission it again given that more funds has been wasted on the commissioning yet again.

Its worth commissioning because alot more was added under the PMB gov. Especially the completion of more metros,rail lines and bridge on the project. The Abuja airport metro was not even 1/3 done during the GEj time. So yes it is worth commissioning.Even for the metro stations alone. That Picture of GEJ was for the IDU station to Kaduna and not the Abuja Metro leading to the satellite areas in Abuja as listed in the commissioning.

Meanwhile am for such continuity. If projects are outstanding,they should be completed.No need to start new ones. Especially where they are far from finish. We have over 500 FGN projects uncompleted from previous governments. It will be stupid to initiate new ones if the abandon projects are important to national development. Complete It and take credit since it may have being a failed project if you choose to ignore it and start another.

The approach of continuity is a wise one. I have not heard the current government take complete credit in anything regarding initiating projects but rather that of completing and commissioning which is also a credit. Initiating doesn't mean execution/implementing,completion etc it takes all the process to have a successful project. So na colobo....

The senator lies sha. When GEJ was in power,most of the metro stations,rails and bridges were not near completed to a large degree. The Pictures he shows are from the launch of the IDU station for Kaduna and Abuja rail line. Not the Abuja Metro as the senator lies about.

If one is in Abuja the metro rail lanes,stations and bridges that connect the services can be seen to be largely done under the current dispensation. Using the Kaduna-Abuja rail service you can see alot on it was done under GEJ,although someone had to complete it.The present government indeed complete what was left of it.

Folks in Abuja will note that the new extention of the International wing and the metro was never there during the GEJ era. It was more of site clearing. Also the metro station behind world trade center close to church gate was not near completed.The Metro close to the city gate after Wuye was not completed as well.The rail lines and the bridge after wuye were just excavated sites with water ponds. So to claim it was completed then is a blatant lie from the senator.

Being in Abuja I have watched development on the metro rail to see how it would impact the populace in Abuja.All governments have tried to see it come to life but i can say it had gained far more traction and progress with pace under the current government.With completion of the stations,connecting the stations rail network and now kick-starting the service proper.

Although the lines have largely excluded the heart of the city. Where people still struggle to get Nyanya,Karu and Masaka etc transit. If they can extend it that direction,the impact will be felt the most. People still find it hard to connect between the satellite towns and business districts causing grid locks and all that in the morning and close of business,despite the road expansions. The best means should be a mass transit option such as the rail service.

It would have made sense also to have a station built next to Ministry of Finance behind Christian Ecumenical Center. That would have brought it closer to people from the secretariat and Central business area. Seeing the work on that part only for motorist. Abuja really needs an effective mass transit system.

Since El-rufai left the FCT the public mass transit system has gradually become non-existent.Perhaps the metro will change that sha!

Hausa, Fulani flee attacks from militia:

Hundreds of residents of Hausa and Fulani extraction were yesterday reported to have fled their villages which came under attack from militia men in Lau LGA of Taraba State.

Our correspondent reports that this came after the militia suspected to be Bachama and Nyandan launched attacks on Fulani villages. Towns and villages attacked by the militia men include Abbare Santuraki, Mayolope and Nnege as well as other Fulani settlements in neighbouring Adamawa State.

Daily Trust gathered that the attackers killed about 20. A victim, Malam Yakubu Dani, said the militia men killed four persons in his village, Santuraki, and set homes on fire.

At Mayolope, another victim, Alhaji Abdulmumuni, told Daily Trust that the militia killed four persons and burned several houses. He said residents were forced to flee the area. The attack in Lau came one month after nine Fulani people were killed by suspected Mumuye tribesmen in Yorro LGA of the state.

A spokesman of the Hausa community, Alhaji Jibo, said the killings were unprovoked, despite the deployment of security agents to the area. He said no arrest was made at the time of gathering the report, even as the attackers moved freely.

Police spokesman, ASP David Misel, said more policemen had been drafted to the area to restore normalcy, adding that he could not immediately give a casualty figure.

Just feel the vicious circle will continue if everyone keeps going at each other. Some days back this happened and now this happens. All I see is the Police failing to build confidence in people not taking to violence... God help us

Isreal does not peddle rumours..isreal does not issue treats...Isreal is d symbol of treat..
One of the 48 laws of power says "Do not offend the wrong enemy" the day our useless leaders successfully meddles into the volatile middle east politics against isreal, will mark the beginning of the end of this sh1thole.
yesterday it was one careless good fr nothing senator blabbing on how isreal is supporting killings in the North...the whole world is just watching Nigeria.

You are rather mistaken with your remarks. As it stands the FGN and the larger section are against the shitte and that includes even the government. If Israel were to have interest it will be to even support the FGN like they have always done in terms of military training and equipping.

If you do the maths,the USA and Israel will definitely be trying to stop an Iranian influence. So a Syria doesn't happen in Nigeria. where Iran and co can take over. If the report is true the factors will definitely only get Israel,USA,Gulf allies and co to even help Nigeria more to deal with the Iranian/Shitte influence.

So don't be worried just yet about Nigeria getting involved in the middle east. At the moment our allies are all anti-Iran. If I had my way that is the kind of news(true or false) you spread to get free help (money,intelligence,security,weapons etc) from world powers .

Clear setup and back stab.Although I feel its not the end.Alot more back stabbing to come with all levels. So they need to purge themselves of enemies and snitches. Agents of Doom. Its good atimes to allow such to happen to know where you stand before.

They should even be more careful with moles....

searchlight:
the question should be what has buhari done to the people of Nigeria other than killing them?

That is what bothers you.Simply your worry if I may say.Nonetheless Nigeria clearly holds that we have Local,States & Federal. You can't excuse your failure by blaming the other levels without demonstrating what or how you have made any difference in your own small God given area of responsibility/accountability.

Charity indeed begins at home. While pointing to the national,What have they done differently to give them the right to point any fingers at all? Everybody has his blame but shifting blame is a coward easy way out. Scape goat will not be allowed abeg! when you get finances why not stop spending...or wait until FG tells you how.

“Now that another election is on the way, Kwara has
considered it fit to implore Saraki to take us to a formidable party that would address the plights of the people if the ruling APC refuses to redeem its campaign promises.

The perpetual persecution, humiliation and wanton destruction of the personality of the Senate President have been on the increase daily. This has almost made him lose focus on his good intentions for the country.

Dr Saraki had contributed immensely to the empowerment and well-being of the people of the state, yet he was recently accused of sponsoring
a gang of robbers that robbed banks in Offa, Offa local government area of the state. This is a calculated attempt to drag his name in the mud."

Good intentions indeed abi personal interest...!
Did I hear Kwara well being? A state he keeps in his pocket.
A state that has being and continue to be under his family control over several years...! The question should be,over the years what has he and his close associates controlling the state done for the state?
Its not not about PDP or APC. He was in both parties while Kwara existed.

Just hate when politicians take people for granted and think people are fools.
What have the Sarakis done for Kwara?As per Kwara the Sarakis and only they be held responsible for its failures and misfortune abeg.
It's neither party nor external influences. Na them...They should Own up to denying the state progress by keeping power within a cabal at the state and for not allowing others try.

Asek1:
If he can be this humble then he is wise...

Shattap afonja...I say shattap. Low IQ things! Even my dog knows that Dasuki case is purely vendetta for what he did to Buhari in 1985

Okay sir....Happy now?
If not fro your idiocity and mumurism how can someone in one voice speak of someones right e.g. Dasuki and on the same platform trample someone right to comment or state his opinion on a free social forum?

Biafranation you need to touch light yourself. you stink of mumu and intolerance...

Lastly my opinion stands.Only difference is,you showed your emptiness and ignorance even more over my right to comment.
