Jonathan has been an embarrassment to Nigeria and Nigerians at large. How can this guy have Ph.D and still does things the way he rules Nigeria? Jonathan embarrasses this country anywhere he goes. Jonathan and PDP are like cancer that we have no choice but to kill that cancer wherever it is found. So this committee convening President must be chase out of power on February 14 at all cost.

Jonathan Must Go!

PDP must be killed and buried!

Jan-jawe-ed Yoruba professor spoke, another jan-jawe-ed eyeforeye quickly responded, other jan-jawe-eds did thumb up. Take note SW Mohammedians: Not all groups in Nigeria are cowards that can be easily intimidated to surrender and get conquered by Mohammedians ravaging from the Sahel region. Despite the war waged against Jonathan govt by Mohammedians, Jonathan has outperformed his predecessors in office. Face to face with a Havard Professor to discuss a topic in their common field, this Jan-jawe-ed Mohammedian professor Oyebode must get stammering and freeze out before long.

you know you vomit rubish that is why you siad people should not quote you, i quote you now and let us see who will die miserable within 7 days, PDP did not make Tanbuwal the Speaker and the constitution did not say the speaker must be from the majority, it says it must be from among the members. so it very wrong for Jonathan and his errand boys to withdraw his security men, he should have allowed the people that made him speaker to remove him. LAWLESSNESS is another name of Jonathan, i am dissapointed in him.

Show which country a fellow from the minority party is elected or remains Speaker of Parliament. See as your mouth de run lie lie yara yara like that of Liar Mohammed of APC. PEOPLE LIKE YOU AND YOUR APC WILL NEVER FORGIVE A PARTY MEMBER THAT BEHAVES LIKE TAMBUWAL.

APC is a party weaved around two aged people - Tinubu and Buhari, with their main support base from extremists in Northwest and Southwest of Nigeria. PDP is the known devil, a party nationally spread with radical and savvy politicians and huge number of followers. APC cannot dislodge PDP from Aso Rock 2015. Tambuwal wants to be governor in his state. He does not require government security outfit paid for by tax payers for his campaign.

Toktee:
A true nigerian like tinubu will put nigerian health ahead of his own health,nigeria is sick,remember!

Nigeria has been sick all along. Extremists declared war on Nigeria's govt under Jonah and made Nigeria's sickness worse.

Return regional govt system to Nigeria to cure Nigeria's system, and stop all the wars, some of you people refuse, you want continuation of the type of unitary govt where Abuja collects revenues and shares to the states. Don't you expect worse type of corruption in this unitary system?


Or do you expect that when we vote in a Buhari, IBB or Abacha's descendant to become president 2015, then they will wipe out corruption by jailing Nigerians (including YOU of course), already corrupted by Nigeria's unitary govt system.

Tinubu back wearing rugged jeans to continue his fight to hand Nigeria back to the descendants of Othman Dan Fodio with whom he shares similar ideals. Those descendants ruled Nigeria for nearly 40 years of Nigeria's 54 years of existence as an independent country.

The rugged jeans Tinubu wore in flight from America to Nigeria symbolizes Tinubu's dreams he can get younger - in other words, he is really sick.

Mogidi:
Sanusi ready to declare for PDP any day now. GEJ you too much.

But why do these people still dress like masquerades? Can anyone imagine any of these people engage in any economic activity while wearing clothes like these? Any culture or mode of dressing that does not change with time is backward. It is like the culture of keeping women in purdah or putting women in bags in the name of burqa. In fast developing countries where both husband and wife work, it is still difficult to pay tax and the bills for some couples.

homealone2: U r a disgrace/disappointment 2 ur nation, don't worry ,i will deport u back 2 Liberia.

You are a typical Crude oil patriot, the type that only believes in "One Nigeria so long as oil flows in the N/Delta." Dictator for One Nigeria. You don't know that Liberia is better off than Nigeria? Liberia fought civil war once and has remained in peace after. Nigeria fights civil war after civil war after civil war after ....

Symphony007: 54 years my foot! The sooner we stop this idiotic false patriotism of "no matter how nigeria is it's our country" and realize we have real problems, work hard to bequeath a better nation for the next generation, the better for us least we keep draging out this failure called nigeria into a century. And the longer it takes the more painful it gets! Enjoy your celebrations.

It's celebration day for the groups who foolishly believe they cannot survive without One Nigeria. They clutch to hopes of one Nigeria even if the Nigeria ship has hit huge rocks.

pendusky: In unity we will always triumph, irrespective of any challenge facing us. Let us stand together at all times, Nigerians. Happy Independence Anniversary!

Drop Your Wishes For Nigeria

Triumph means victory. Victory comes after a struggle/war. For how many more years must Nigeria waste its humans and material resources fighting for one Nigeria for the benefit of a small percentage of its people? A Nigerian clan that mixes religion with politics by promoting one religion over others has devastated Nigeria. For those of you who are prepared to limp on in a conflict-ravaged country that spends much of its revenues buying weapons to kill its too many rebellious and religious extremist groups, count out others who are not willing to belong to a country like yours.

Raw cash. South African govt may need the cash seriously. If not, diplomatic channels settle matters like this. If South African govt refuse to accept Nigerian govt explanation about the cash, South Africa govt can then avoid Nigeria's legitimate govt and deal with the Boko Haram govt already on ground in the northern part of Nigeria. It is a matter of raw cash , it is tempting. Govt can easily ignore govt because of raw cash. Most probable thing is that Nigeria legislature was on break, and military top brass wanted quick purchase of arms to sustain their winning streak against Boko Haram.

ShehuAba: Congratulations to all of them. Whether it's truly deserved or not is another issue entirely.

I must commend and congratulate my vice chancellor prof. Abdul Ganiy Ambali who was awarded with the OON.
Really wish him and others, all the best.

I am not sure my name is included by Jonah and his men. I scrolled down the first fifteen names or so, but saw mostly Alhajis and Mohammeds for honour. So I quit and reserve my vote for .....

Nigeria Army beware: it is easy for the captured Boko Haram commander to either escape or be mysteriously killed in hospital, so that he discloses no information. Those who sponsor Boko Haram or sympathise with the organisation's religious cause are legion.

oluwaKStar: ori e ti yi...c'mon gbenu soun....what do you know....why point fingers at a whole tribe..why do you wish for innocent people to suffer just because you have something against yorubas....evil being

If Yoruba declares Oduduwa Republic any day soon, problems of groups forced to One Nigeria becomes solved. Nigeria dissolves into many peaceable countries. Why must innocent groups remain in Nigeria to bear all these bitter pains which religious extremists from north frequently inflict upon Nigeria? The most affluent countries in the world have no crude oil.

texazzpete: Did the 12 northern Governors come and tell you they want a separate sharia-governed nation?
The solution to Boko Haram is to defeat those criminals and kill them. Your solution would be to turn your back on your fellow Nigerians as gladly watch as a genocidal terrorist group slaughtered innocents because they are not your people.

It's hard to believe that nominally, most of you devils are Christians. This is a thread to discuss news of an armed terrorist group massacring unarmed and vulnerable kids and to mourn and grieve. Yet here you are, patronizingly babbling about 'noting my request for empathy'.

Sometimes, I struggle to think how some of you sleep at night.

See what you are like: You go to the bush, you fetch firewood crowded by red ants into your house. Red ants latter multiply and invade your house and members of your family. Neighbours come to your aid to fight off red ants, but many in your household like the firewood.
You then want nearby households to ignore what may be good for them and their descendants and join you as victims of red ants infestation. You turn around to even blame the head of your community for not chasing out red ants in your household.

Look, I am aware that you are aware: the days earth and mankind were created, there was no decree that the people called Nigerians today must be in one country. You must therefore flush yourself of that moronic belief that everybody in Nigeria must have been tied up with a strong One Nigeria rope - never to leave.

Nigeria shortly after it came to be in 1914 has been rocked by Islamic extremists from the north - not just by Boko Haram alone. This time, your ogas from far north asked for sharia; Boko Haram is fighting for sharia country.

You must be a devil and block sucker parading as a Nigeria nationalist if you believe that every Nigerian group must remain in One Nigeria to perennially bear the pains Islamic extremists from northern Nigeria inflict on Nigeria. Do you know how many millions of Dollars Nigeria lose daily due to actions of Islamic extremists?

oneeast: Of course when we allows it happens it will be our fault too. Governors at state level should get to work instead of waiting for FG to do everything for them. Obiano deployed intelligence gathering drones and CCTVs at the strategic points in Anambra to scientifically track and check criminal activities. What are the northern leaders doing?

Gov. Kwankwaso the chief security officer for Kano state could not stop killers and bombers in his state. Once again, he shall blame President Jonathan for Boko Haram exploits. Kwankwaso would rather use Islamic Police to seize millions of Naira worth alcohol products in Kano state and burn them in the open before TV crews. Acts like this encourage Boko Haram. Kwankwaso says he wants to become presidnt of Nigeria from May 2015.

texazzpete: 1. Stop these childish lies. You were rejoicing. You said you were 'feeling cool' as you read reports of vulnerable teenagers being blown to bits and machine-gunned to death.

2. Who is 'the north'? Is it the children on the streets of Kano that created this problem? Is it the kids in this school that have been killed?
If your beef is with the past leaders of the north, why not focus your ire on them instead of jubilating when teenagers are killed violently?

3. If you can agree that the problem of the north is illiteracy, why are you unconcerned when schools that are raising a new generation of northerners to fix the problem are attacked and killed?


Instead of thinking of how to craft a rebuttal, I suggest you sit down, look deep within yourself for a residual spark of humanity and ask why you cannot dredge up more empathy for the plight of your fellow Nigerians.

Your clamour for empathy observed. But you ought to know it: solution to the Boko Haram problem is grant the 12 northern states a sharia-governed country their leaders crave. Both young and old celebrated when northern governors introduced sharia criminal codes into the legal system of the 12 northern states. Boko Haram later sprang up and has consistently stated that it is fighting for a sharia-governed country. Muslims, especially in the north may not like Boko Haram style, but they surely must welcome having the whole of Nigeria as an Islamic state. So? Must the rest of Nigeria perish with north for what north brought to itself? No. In any case, may the souls of the innocent killed rest in peace.

Sharraaaaap Oscar Pistorius. You are jail-bound. The law must not allow you to kill an intruder to your house. If everybody resorts to carrying arms and use them the way you did, you Oscar; of all persons could have been dead long before now.

[quote author=TISHAmatt]At last. Nigeria must be one.}

Killing Nigerians by Nigerians, taking and retaking territories is not the answer to Boko Haram crisis.

There is no country in the world where disagreeing and warring groups are kept together by force of arms for long.

Solution to Nigeria's imbroglio lies in conducting a referendum for the regions, or for the six geo-zones of Nigeria. Any region(s) or geo-zone(s) that vote(s) to leave Nigeria union is/are allowed to leave.

The regions or geo-zones that opt to stay in One Nigeria then meet and agree on the terms for their union.

It is no point wasting lives and resources fighting people just because they want to practice their religious faith as it pleases them, but at the same time we are jeopardizing real development in the whole of Nigeria. When shall the fighting stop?

What Provoked this Born To Rule Policeman mercilessly beating Omolara in Lagos, in the presence of a large Lagos crowd?

sauceny: in what section of the 1999 constitution,was it stated that the Nig govt has to make provisions for such an illicit act,especially coming from a state govt....If it did came from the federal govt,that would have been understandable, i think its high time the citizenry have to hold the govt accountable for their actions & wrong doing.

If Jonathan is not a weak president, Kwankwaso shall pay heavy political price for these unconstitutional acts. Nigeria and Niger are different countries.

Rawani: Anyone remember America's desire to site a command centre in Nigeria? CIA 2015 prediction and how it was condemned by all? What a brilliant co-incidence that we are now glad to invite them to launch air strikes on our land from Niger. For all we know Obama might end up being our Jega for 2015. Let's keep these issues in mind while we pray for the annihilation of the stinking jihadists.

The Jihadists stinking? Dunbeliveit. Too many of them and their sponsors wear costly perfumes. JIHADISTS OF NORTHERN NIGERIA AND THEIR SPONSORS HAVE ONLY ONE GOAL:TO FORCEFULLY CONVERT REST OF NON-MUSLIM NIGERIA TO THEIR BRAND OF ISLAM, LIVE WITH THEM, AND ETERNALLY GOVERN NIGERIA UNDER ISLAMIC SHARIA CODES. Northern Nigeria leaders and populace officially embraced sharia criminal codes for 12 northern states last decade. Hope the US govt understudies this background that led to Boko Haram fight before Pentagon's involvement. In truth and indeed, conceding to 12 northern sharia states a new country they crave is only solution - not drones. Policing the Jihadists in such a smaller country is more effective than policing them in a wide, big Nigeria.

Acidosis: But you believe the allegation against Borno ex-governor because he's Hausa. Right?

Where did Boko Haram originate from if not from north? Remember about three years ago, some people, perhaps like you, even said that Boko Haram fighters were Igbos.
Even a reasonable primary 1 pupil will have no reason to believe that Ihejirika man could sponsor Boko Haram. But these APC people that want Aso Rock by hook and crook went to town spreading the belief that a soldier whose military formation fought back and confined Boko Haram to the forests was Boko Haram sponsor.

Ihejrika connection on sponsorship of Boko Haram? Simple to understand: Ihejirika-led army decimated Boko Haram fighters. That made more sharia-rule sympatisers join Boko Haram. Ihejirika must be top on hitlist of Boko Haram. Since Ihejirika left, Boko Haram has been having a field day, now advance deep into Nigeria southward.

oneeast: People down south do not know that Nigeria is presently at war. You need to go to the north to better appreciate that the events of 1966 is repeating itself again.

By the time our military are through, the north would have lost over 10 million in human resources and be set back another 100years economically.

The worst part of it, is that the north brought this on themselves. GEJ was quite slow to action thinking that the north will change their evil ways but they kept at it. Now that GEJ has declared a full war on them let nobody, not the Islamic APC and its supporters cry wolf!

It is really pathetic here in the north to say the least!

But the fear is: mass movement of soldiers and military hardware to the battlefield is one thing, but fighting spirit of soldiers is another thing. Two camps: a group of fighting soldiers dispirited as their former boss who caged Boko Haram in the forest for years is being insulted by opportunists with acccusation of sponsoring of Boko Haram; another camp of soldiers desires the possibilty of a sharia-governed Nigeria which Boko Haram is fighting for. It has been severally reported that soldiers pulled back whenever Boko Haram fighters advanced. Guess why most of Borno state has fallen to control of Boko Haram?

Abuloma80: BH finally captured Michika and hoisted their flags, while the military retreat to Maraba to prevent BH entering Mubi their next target. No time for lengthy write up now......................

They are not serious. When they reach Kano and Sokoto, we shall begin to take them serious. Did these areas not bargain for sharia rule, the same thing Boko Haram is fighting for? If you commit every thing to fight off Boko Haram, you become accused for genocide and threatened with Hague prosecution. Naaansense.

MrMcJay: Coming from Tribune and the two clowns who posted before me, the "source" might just be an ugly teenager with a Tecno phone and MTN 10MB free data. Everyone in the Presidency knows that even if APC presents a puppy to contest against Jonathan, he would be beaten.

2015, and the big-nosed drunkard in Aso Rock would be beaten like a drum.

U have been intoxicated by sweet crude oil. Your Arewa Peoples Congress +a few religious extremists of SW is not going anywhere near Aso Rock by 2015. The rest of Nigeria are not f00ls like you. You declared war agains a fellow Nigerian to bring down his administration, yet he has done tremendously better than your now Angry supporters of APC people that mostly populate your Angry Peoples Congress most of whose members held Nigeria hostage for decades of military and civilian rule.

Raiders: Don't compare US army and Nigeria army because they are both fighting war in different situation. US fought those wars in foriegn country. Do you think Somalia and vietnam will win a guerilla warfare in New York, Chicago or any US cities? We should all be worried that Nigeria army cant protect our home land from guerilla warfare. If boko haram can capture Bama. What make you think Abuja and lagos will not be attack in the future? We need a strong army. God bless Nigeria.

You may have to join Nigeria army to do the guerrila warfare. Perhaps when your colleague sabotages you - as has been the case in the fight against Boko Haram - you shall no longer have the opportunity to compare a united army of US with an army where because of belief in archaic religious practice in the far north, colLeagues sabotage their colleauges. Boko is fighting for sharia country. Northern Muslims joyfully embraced sharia codes. Or are you a stranger in Nigeria that you do not see why a strongest military formation in W/Africa - Nigeria Army - has not been able to defeat Boko Haram? Only solution is grant the 12 northern sharia states a sharia country they crave. This done, other countries can police their borders against infiltration of religious extremists.
