Jonah-daft really destroyed this country. By the time the fool was going, he was borrowing to pay salaries. Thank Goodness, Buharis prudence have put an end to this malady.

Gbawe:
The NERC chairman has to be diplomatic and give GEJ credit. Yet the truth is that the power sector, like the oil sector and others, is another that was totally overtaken by the gross corruption and administrative irresponsibility GEJ is known for. Nigerians should prepare for the corruption and rot that will be revealed about the power sector under GEJ-especially the pseudo-privatisation 'boju-boju' that was just a way to enrich many AGIPs and PDP bigwigs. I will try and find an article about what GEJ actually 'achieved' in the power sector. Overall Nigerians should not celebrate too much because 4700 MW is nothing in relation to Nigeria's immediate and future needs. Yet the reality is that this modest gain is down to the much vaunted Buhari 'body language' because, give or take, we always had the capacity, even before GEJ, to hit around 4700 MW. those who know the power sector well will confirm this.

in the end Buhari's 'body language' , centred around zero tolerance for impunity, is the reason some of us spent so many hours of our time online and offline before the election working for his win. I have always argued that Europeans and Westerners are no less corrupt than Africans. The difference is that punishment is swift and decisive for wrongdoing in the developed world, and this has created a 'deterrent' culture where things work , whereas this is not the case in Nigeria and many African Countries creating an 'impunity' culture where nothing works and it is every man/woman for himself/herself . Jonathan is a poster child of the corrupt ways and system killing Africa. He never believed in punishing anyone or holding those under him accountable. To that end, impunity reigned under his government and no one was bothered to do their job as they could/should. Under Buhari, a hardliner who believes people must give value for what they are paid to do, you will be fired for incompetence, corrupt acts or general indolence in the workplace. Crucially, everyone understand this and are 'behaving' themselves.

The slackness that obtained under GEJ is gone. This is a President who will question why you have not done your job properly and will sack you if you have no tenable excuse. That is the major game-changer and that is why some of us backed Buhari fervently. That is what all progressive nations of the world have in common . I.e there is a system in place that punishes corruption, crime, incompetence, lack of focus and lack of performance. PDP destroyed all that with their style of governance which actually encouraged Nigerians to be as corrupt, as indolent, as clueless and as inept as possible with the obvious assurance that there will be no consequence at all for doing things that way. Change is here and the GEJ supporters can continue to resist and offer excuses but they will be won over in the end. Even today most GEJ supporters are beginning to understand that the lawless, indisciplined and ultra-corrupt society GEJ and the PDP helped to create, where impunity was king, is not a way forward for Nigeria.

See?Yet some never do wells had began to scream "Jonathan" even before the panel began sitting as if Buhari doesn't know what he's doing..

seunmsg:
Audu is still a better choice. Wada is more than useless.

kokoA:
Ebira people na gragra and irrelevant fights dem sabi engage in, when e reach better fight dem no fit. Smh. How can one ethnic group keep pushing up their worst politicians from all the major political parties always?

Aufbauh:
This PDP has a lot to do to survive in their new role of opposition. Credible opposition entails getting a verifiable facts and figures about your opponent weaknesses over time so that you can use it against him. That was what the APC mastered to oust the PDP from the centre. Propaganda can only sell when or where it is built on standing facts and figures be it a lie or the truth. When you begin to throw up criticism at every turn of time including those problems you created for the sake of relevance then you offers yourself as a cheap and deflated opponent struggling for survival.

whirlwind7:
Huh. We all know that the only tribe who is afraid of competition in whatever level, are the people from the north.
This video doesn't even say much. Get a better perspective of how their mind work, and how they have this unhealthy phobia for progressive and hardworking southerners from the book "The Biafra Story" by Frederick Forsythe.
I mean, when you understand them, you won't be surprised that despite being in power longer than any region of the country, the north remains the most backwards, poorest and most underdeveloped appendage of this contraption called Nigeria.

AZeD1:
It might look like that but i don't really care. You cannot solve problems with the same mentality that created the problems and ethnicity is what led us down this road we are.

henryuzor:
You dont beat a child and expect the child not to cry abi......let me also add one for you...it is the way you make your bed that you will lie on it,you are shouting marginalisation of the southeast now that it has come to appointments,when it was the time to vote why did you not cry the same marginalisation when the whole south east were voting him?...you really expect PMB to leave those who gave him majority votes to win the election and start appointing people from the south east who completely abandoned him...you must be high on weeds
When the leaders of Ohaneze Ndigbo were busy collecting bribes to vote PDP,they didnt think it will have reparcurrsions abi?
Let me ask you a question....if GEJ had won and then abandon the SS and SE to start appointing majority from the North,would that have been okay forr you
My advice for the SS anf SE especially is that they should go and learn how to play politics from the SW,they should shun tribalistic politics and play more of collective/group politics

GentleToks:
Are you this stupidd? There are only 2 states in your entire region with oil reserve but with limited quantity. Oil in these two states are not up to 5% of all oil the list below.

Ondo, Delta, River, Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa and of recent Lagos state have enough oil.

omenka:
All well meaning Nigerians, for the love of their children and the sake of their future, need to throw their weight behind this admin. Baba is indeed passionate about charting a new course for the collective emancipation of this country, salvaging it from those dark forces that have held it down for ages.

We had this consensus 90% of the problems we face in the country are symptomatic of the deep seated rot of corruption nurtured by successive administrations. These forces are trying hard, using all means legal and otherwise, to thwart the government's effort at cleansing the system of the rot which only benefits the elites. It pains me no end to see the youths who've no doubt borne the brunt of this incessant pillaging of our common patrimony defend these men so viciously- men whose abode as we speak should be nowhere but some dingy cell in a maximum security prison.

May God guide and protect Buhari as he carries on with this arduous task of rewriting the future path of this nation.

GentleToks:
Why are you wailing? You hate a man and the same hate you back, what is the crime in that?

IGBOS are fools. Igbos is the only humans on earth who want to show you how much they hate you but want your love in return for the hate. Who does this for God sake?

Igbos should be smiling if truly that Igbos have predicted that things would turn out like this cos you already knew how tribalistic this man was(is). So why wailing?

Who could be more tribalistic than Igbos in this country? The reason why Igbos are feeling bad about all this is the fact that Igbos are being fed with their own medicine which is tribalism. Igbos are synonymous to Bigotry, Nepotism and Tribalism.

It's killing them to see or being subjected to the same treatment they have subjected others to in the past and still love to subject people to.

If you are a thief; it's easy for you to identify one and hate to see your belongings stolen.

babadem2much:
This to me is a welcome development, cuz residents of that community are yet to be settled, the have to accertain the durability n cost. but ppl will complain bcuz they are in a hurry, but if it is completed in 6 months time n colapse with lives we will still complain

Gboliwe:
So EFCC worked and even recovered loot during Jonathan's regime? This is surprising! Who for think am?

kodded:
cc HZRF , is this clown. Saying the truth ?

So tell me why the Federal Ministry of Water Resources (FMWR) was presented with the following quotes in 2007, Mr Forensic Accountant.

Aarenaija:
If Fashola stole money let him be prosecuted.

But it would do Ambode mush good to avenge his benefactor; Tinubu with some decorum.

I voted for this man Ambode cos of paceivied brilliance of his. But he is now showing that he is only there on a revenge mission.

He should rather set up a probe panel to probe his predecessor in office rather than washing their dirty linen on social medial. Some wisdom please.................. Tired of all these noise. Let him start work and give result to the people that voted him to office while the probe is going on.

goodgate:
Good One Brother. Very Smart Observation by You. I am Marvelled at how Unintelligent some Nigerian youths are, he was not being accused of anything, the said Contracts were duly approved and executed to completion, so what's all the fuss about. Later our youths will complain of unemployment as if they were employable,with their daft ways of reasoning.

frodow:
If the bore holes are solar powered, then it should even be more than 139million naira, so dont criticise him or his government okay

aftatechbiz:
Naija politicians and their corruption sha!. I just completed 2 boreholes in Ibadan with less than N900k. A whopping sum of N139M on 2 boreholes. God dey ooo!!!




www.aftasms.com

ElFenomeno1:
Anyone would be gullible and insanely foolish to think Fashola didn't steal.
I am in the engineering and real estate sector, the most expensive borehole ( industrial borehole ) I have had a quotation for is about 13.9 million naira and that is in Banana Island, where the depth needs to go below the saltwater bracket .... Serving a block of 8 luxurious flats.
There is no way a borehole will cost that much where it was reportedly sunk.... a quarter of the amount quoted for each of those boreholes is grossly inflated.
I am disappointed.

989900:
Even @5m or 10m, this wouldn't have been noticed, but 70m?!!!

Orikinla:
[size=18pt]There are boreholes and there are boreholes.
What kind of bore holes cost N139 million?

The borehole that Julius Berger will drill is different from the back yard borehole of your house.

Verify before you grudge and judge.

aresa:
You know it's inflated because they've shown you the contract details and stipulations?

OrlandoOwoh:
If you are not experiencing any change in Nigeria, you are blind. You are deaf. You are dumb. In fact, your sense organs are dead.

mperoakeem:
all i know is it Cant be Nigeria... Even if its Nigeria, u go hear twenty Sometin trillions DOLLARS.

LRNZH:
But your boy GEJ embraced BH, called them your siblings and used them as an excuse for embezzlement. You have no shame.

fulanimafia:
Impressive, yet some wailers kicked against his merit based appointment because he comes from the North.

How many more competent men have we sacrificed on the altar of ethnicity? President Buhari should not yield to the myopic desires of advocates of the status quo.

Change. Delivered.
