Why do writers or some newsmen seek for faults rather commending a giant strides?

Is this for political blackmailing or what? When Lagos state govt started fighting Ebola, they didn't in a hurry requested for any money from the government. Thier efforts where seen to curtail the spread of the virus and in managing the infected people. But its not yet long that the first victim died and others quarantined yet they are requesting for #2m. If that is the case, every state government would say they have victims of Ebola and pick up people and quarantine them. They should continue thier work, if thier is a need for the fed to give them #2m, they will certainly do. President Jonathan is not sentimental. He is a broad hearted President. Vote President GEJ in 2015.

clean2: That guy is just a fake igbo wanna be . The igbo world wide council disowns him as one of our own . He is an american full blooded

think b4 making hasty conclusion Mr. Even if he is an igbo or Nigerian, can't you read how fake the story sounds? If a story was said by some psycho who forgets who raped her (if they ever did) will you quickly crucify the person even in a land of racist when it is known that some white ladies could set you up for refusing to fall to thier green light. So dnt make hasty conclusion and here from both sides to find out the truth.

I hope this is not true. Hope it is not hijacked by the sympathizers of Boko haram to unleash havoc of people. Else, I think the government should start from there then downward to fish-out the sponsors of the sect.

Abu kwanu onye achina, onye umueleke. Naga umueleke hall ka bai di. Nwanne nno. Oganiru Kai na Cho.

The freedom of information which these administration granted to help our democracy has been abused by wicked and senseless politicians, supporters and groups. Rather than use it to promote our culture, successes, richness just like the Chinese are doing and of recently AIT, they are busy wasting thier ill-gotten wealth on electronic and print media houses trying to paint the government especially the federal government black. Rather than pray for the man or those in power, some ingrates are using abusive words against the president yet saying " we are well trained and more respectful than others". Its quite unfortunate. People say bad news sells more? But I think, it is in Nigeria alone. why are the Chinese or the western world not feeding us with the decays in the society so as the world and authority would know they are not able? Or do they want to tell us thier society is perfect? Our local media houses should help this country, our bad politicians trying to fake truths and paint our image, richness and progress black due to hatred against he that is in power should desist from it. Some people in all sections of the country who have not been to other parts of the country shouldn't conclude that there is nothing going on else where in the country. The government is federal government is making progress; if the previous administrations especially Babangida, Buhari and of course and importantly the [b][/b]OBJ administration who has enormous power and resources to have put things in place had done so, we would have had a clear-cut case against GEJ. GEJ is trying to lay a good and new foundation for the country. He believes let by gone be by gone and lets start afresh, but wicked people who never want to see changes in some years coming are hell bent in destroying this country and wants us to remain in the dark. Nigeria is our own, if it collapses, it collapses on us all, if it grows, our generation will bless our soul.

I don't know the truth as anything could be posted on the net. Let God be the judge.

I was watching an APC loyalist on tv boasting before the election that APC will win. I wonder what he has to say now. APC are using a strategy of crying fowl before elections to gain sympathizers. PDP shouldn't fall victim to thier antics and INEC should not be distracted in conducting a free, fair and credible election as promise by the president. I love this man called Goodluck. My people say a bull that has no tail, its the gods that chases the fly away for it. GEJ coast is been cleared by God. GEJ till 2019, after which the middle belt, after which the southeast, then the west.

desgiezd: So, so sad. RIP to the dead.

I need someone to enlighten me on this, I can see a life jacket lying down there, there's also a life jacket around the body of one guy there, does it mean that they didnt work or what happened?

I served in a riverine community in Bayelsa. The second to the last town in bayelsa close to rivers. State. It was a scary adventure but I thank God. The people will tell u, life jacket is useless if u don't know how to swim. To a person who don't know how to swim, lifejacket will aid his or her death. My colleagues and I were asked to learn how to swim incase of emergency which we did but not too much. Water!! Water knows no enemy nor friend one can be a victim or victor. I thank God I didn't fall victim to the black water of Idema. RIP to the dead

I am tired, I mean really tired of this unending movie. The government and the military should bomb these places, if the northern elders says its human right violation and declares war that will lead this country to separate, then be it. personally I am tired. Let us separate this country and let everyone have peace and respect for other people. Some south westerners don't want to see the south easterners and some south easterners don't want to see the south westerners. Some northerners don't love the south south while the south south believe the north is the cause of thier pains; With the separation, all this will easily be resolve rather than we hiding our hatred for others.

achinaboy: now i know why he was preaching and preaching on men supremacy on wives, to support him unquenchable chkuchuku appetite..nonsense,,,again the woman in question, should know her man's love for nyashh and try and learn as many styles as possible to be able to keep this guy,,because as a married man i mean myself,,if my wife is able to grind my peper like crazy,which she does, i don't know what i will be looking in another chic's behind,,devil or no devil

nwanne e bu onye Achina, na la Aguata nime obodo Anambra state.?

Nice one. People should not be a pessimist. We want this country to move forward. One thing I believe this card will help do if well updated and used is to check the security situation as well as the influx of illegal immigrants into our country. The commission in charge should always be empowered both constitutionally to continue with this. Its a good step in a good direction.

It is very very possible. Thumps up for the PDP aspirants. These guys are real high class and sophisticated. But for the big wigs, they shouldn't parade themselves as much -reasons best known to me.

While governor of Benue state is unable to pay teachers and co, others are increasing. Some governors should wake up and do things for their people. Nice one Oyo state government but make sure you are able to sustain it rather than for a political purpose.

Its a funny development. The west predicted our breakup, they tried everything possible and it seems Nigeria the power house of Africa is determined to stay together. They used the media organization Amnesty International to accuse Ihejirika of senselessly killing the north, attempting to incite the northerners against the southerners especially the southeast whose kinsmen have been clamoring for the state of Biafra. when this failed, they attempted using the northern elders to threaten taking Ihejirika to ICC, when the Ndi igbo kicked against it and showed thier support for their kinsmen, they backed down. Now its Ihejirika again. My question are these, how come a single Australian could find out that Ihejirika was the sponsor? Why didn't he report the findings to the government or at most the world power but rather use the media? Why was the united states, china, Britain etc who sent thier intelligence unit were not able to find this but have rather returned back to thier country? Is it that this single Australian seems more intelligent than thier unit put together? Its getting funnier though. some people think Nigerians are children born yesterday.
My own is that, the people who can stop this war if they so want are the northerners themselves. I can't imagine the southeasterners or the south westerners folding thier hands, watching while some group destroy thier economy or kill thier people for any reason. During the Biafra war, common saboteurs where killed talk less of sect aiding the killing of thousands of people. NO!!!. The elders should sincerely meet with the government and suggest with one voice on what they want the government to do to curb this problem rather than accusing unjustly or taking a military chief to court while still watching thier land react like a volcano occasionally spewing out hot lava. they should organize themselves and visit the United Nation secretary and suggest a way forward if they feel the government in power is not doing enough. The federal government on its part, should do what they would do if it were to be a tsunami; set a fund for reconstruction and rehabilitation, move the people of that towns out, and stage a war to eliminate this sect in "agreement with the people of that region".

[b][/b]It will be recalled that shortly after his tenure came to an end as COAS, some Northern political elites started the crusade for General Azubuike Ihejirika to be summoned before the International criminal Court in the Hague claiming that he killed their sons and daughters innocently whereas it is on record that no other military leader but Ihejirika did a lot in helping the nation contain the rapid spread of Boko Haram insurgency in the country.
[color=#990000][/color] with this would you expect a non northerner to fight these battle with been accused unjustly? If the northerners and the opposition wants GEJ to declare complete war, they should sign an agreement so when the military takes the battle to them, no one will accuse the army of killing innocent people or accusing GEJ of destroying the north or the opposition using it as a campaign against the president. The opposition thinks the president don't know thier antics. But some northern elders will remain a fool if the fold thier hands in the name of politics and watch the people die and thier economy destroy by this senseless sect whose unachievable aim is to Islamize the country.

mogentle: Who is this silly giberish poster? Are you saying APC did not make GEJ to do justice where neccessary? So it should continue till we have no opposition? Your type should not be contributing/posting here. Go to school.
But GEJ had balls to remove subsidy and cause fuel price increase amidst public outcry.

and who does this Ebola infected monkey thinks he is. GEJ stopped no opposition and if he had wanted, he would have better than his predecessor from the southwest. We all know the gimmicks of APC is to cry out loud even when the fire isn't on the mountain. GEJ had been able to display to all who cares that he had nothing to loose or gain winning or loosing election in any PDP or APC states. He had shown that he is not a sentimental and a witch-hunting politician. So anyone who is not contented with this mans simplicity should look for the nearest Nepa cable and commit suicide. He said he will not interfere in duties that belongs to the legislature and even the judiciary, and he has kept his word.

abu12: Sharrraaap dia. when femi fani kayode was charge to court because he was in APC insulting PDP govt, did APC carry of witch hunting in the media, The allow him to face his corruptions charges. Until fani kayode decide to decamp back to PDP and the free him from corruption, all those that ops mention are not in govt, PDP shld prosecute them if they are truly corrupt

you are a bastard nincompoop for saying sharraap. When that case was on, we read here on this platform the views of many APC supporters until fani Kayode. We also read in news papers and many APC in my area on the side of fani. So u better shut the fck up.

kk. No hard feelings though

People are asking why the president have not done anything to punish those rogues? We all know what the APC will cry about; the PDP is using the efcc as a watch dog, the pdp is using the police to intimidate them, the pdp is using the security operatives and judges to scuttle and harass them due to the forthcoming election etc. I hope they would wait when the president takes the mantle of leadership come 2015, then they will judge if he is a weakling or wise man.

kolaaderin: My comment have addressed ur claim, PDP dont believe in this project call Nigeria and Rochas and Amechi want progress, hence there defection to APC.

there are other parties which people can be an perform well, Mimiko is trying, Willie of Anambra is trying, its not till they belong to APC ok. Its the person in them who can show outstanding performance irrespective of the party or forces in the party.

ronaldreagan26: .

Yeah......

I guess you mean the south east. Let me make you understand, Nigeria is still standing today is because of that region. The day they grant them their succession, its the end of the entity called Nigeria; which I believe they wouldn't dare. Its a wish full thinking expecting regions to send them out. They are ready now to leave if the stakeholders in Nigeria agrees but every region will bear the cost. The southeast are in the blood and economy of every region. The Economy of Lagos you are using as a yard stick today is comprised of them, don't imagine the impossible bro.

kolaaderin: Wakeup, salvation is at ur door step but u are refusing to open ur door just because u want ur kinsman to remain in aso rock. Did I hear some one says Rochas is a blessing to his state. He is APC that is why u can physically se progress. PDP don't believe is this project call Nigeria and they sees it as a waste in developing what will eventually collapse therefore looting us to death faster than Abacha can dream of in his days.
Change ur party comes next election, those state that did directly on indirectly are having better democracy defident. Vote right

Let me correct you. It is not because Rochas is an APC member that made he performed, it is his nature. He was determined to perform even before he became a governor. Come to think of it, was Amechi, Rochas in APC before they started thier good work in their respective states? NO! Akpabio is a performing governor as well as this present governor of Anambra Willie who is working hard. Are these guys in APC? It is the true person in them. Not the party. Fashola tried not because of the party but he wants people to know he is intelligent and different from his predecessor and not because the party made him to or he is following the party ideology which they don't even have. Any governor who wants to perform for the state can, it is self determination and a personal sacrifice. Nobody is a fool to be deceived by the propaganda of the opposition party.

Jesus! Rubbish!!! Theodore Orji is a disgrace to the southeast as well the PDP. Notwithstanding the giant strides been made by Anambra, Imo and Enugu, Theodore is just basking in the position of Chairman of the Southeast Governors. The day I went to Aba, it was an eyesore, the people are complaining of his administration but they love GEJ. I know he has few months to stay, but he should note that he haven't written his name in the sand of time. He is a propagandist and a bad example of leader. He should quickly bow out in shame.

Atiku and Buhari. Why are these old men so desperate to rule these country? I believe Rochas and some others' from the south-west is also in the race. We are keenly watching. After one person had won the ticket, lets see who amongst them will remain in the party and who that angel will be to win the election come from GEJ. I stand to be corrected, notwithstanding the beautiful performance of Rochas, the igbos are not ready to give him thier votes, so I wonder if its the southwest that will give him? Or is it Atiku, who is no match for goodluck? For Buhari, the calculation has already been made. The southeast and south south votes has already been decided, the north and the west will be shared and we will know who holds the mantle.

Gradually those who have seen flaws and also foresee the doom day of APC will return. I am expecting rochas, Amechi, Ngige, to join the returnees. Rochas will loose both the governorship as well as his presidential ambitions if he fails. Someone should tell onyilola that after few months, he would be irrelevant in his new found party and he shouldn't even bother to return, he has no stake in PDP anymore. GEJ till beyond when the doctors return to work

Greedy wicked buffaloes. They left the public hospitals for their private ones and people are dying, causing the death of patients nationally to have risen so much that you tend to wonder if these guys really have human feelings at all. Even if they claimed the government are not sensitize to our plight, must they, with their wealth of selfish knowledge join them to murder us in the name of better working conditions or positions?
if the Military men and other security officers especially the police decides to go on strike even for a day, will most of these doctors be alive? They shouldn't feel they are more important than others, they are simply bunch of experience idiots.
They should vacate and sit at home for long, there are many young graduate doctors who are willing and are ready to take thier positions and save our peoples ( children and old ones especially) live while working with the government to gradually addressing thier requests. GEJ beyond when the doctors returns.

Yemlizzy: As observed it seems the major reason like he said is underdevelopment and neglect of certain important projects in some areas.Just wondering if with the G7 governors joining APC how is 2015 going to be for Nigeria?Jonathan may or may not contest for the election.It wont be a child's play at all.

amechi just cited the main reason why he joined APC, he believe he is loosing thier oil well to the brother state. This has been im his mind for long. But the truth is that Amechi will loose more than what he felt he has been loosing. He has a court case with his brother with the former governor of rivers state. And he is not careful he will loose it to him, and that is the end of his career in politics.

Who ever says President Jo is not wise must be the fool. He has privatized the power for effectiveness and efficiency, allowed all regions to have an international airports, the military wares have been distributed to virtually all regions and another move is to privatize the refineries. They are all good moves that will encourage development and efficiency in all region. Who are those acquiring some of these properties? Is it not some foreigners and people from that region? These are moves to keep all regions at alert whenever the bell of succession rings.

Sometimes I laugh. They just announced it and we are fighting with our views. If they have sent people out to be trained who knows? one should even ask why are the biafrans still agitating for a succession? Who are those supporting them and even encouraging them secretly? I sure believe the Ibos are not fool to an extent of disclosing thier intentions if such nature. They might have already gotten these guys ready incase of any eventuality.
