Just because this current administration is failing in the midst of dwindling resources doesnt make the man that failed in the midst of plenty better. If Jonathan was still in charge things would have been much worse but then some groups of morons with selective amnesia are making this fool appear like a hero.

Jonathan we are not all dumb. We've not forgotten how you dated newspaper depots just because the news didnt favour you. We've not forgotten how a sitting governor in rivers state was placed on house arrest when your visiting wife blocked even the road leading to the government house. We've not forgotten how your wife made rivers state hell for the sitting Governor. We've not forgotten how you froze the account of Adamawa state after the Governor decamped to APC and you went after him with EFCC.

We've not forgotten how a sitting speaker was locked out of the NASS just because he decamped to the opposition party. We remember how he had to jump the gate against while daring the NPF under Jonathan to shoot him

Yes Buhari is failing in the midst of scarce resources but he doesn't even have half of what you had in resources.

To the fools trying trying so hard to make us feel we made the wrong choice in 2015 you've failed already

Any senseless rant from a useless street urchin.

NwaAmaikpe:


He needs to be sacked.

What type of overzealousness is this?
A Nigerian Police man should hide his religious inclinations.
He should not be partisan.

How will this man be trusted to attend to a Muslim's matter without bias?

Besides we know he is just deceiving himself.
How can a policeman be born again?

I will further backslide if I see a policeman preaching to me because deep down I know it is hypocritical and no policeman will make heaven.

If somebody just gives him egunje of 100Naira, he will drop that megaphone sef.

Silly....

Clearly different people have different ideas as to what a goverment is....

Let's have a Referendum Already.!!!

The threats against ethnic groups against other ethnic groups and state actors against citizens are on the increase.

There are subtle moves to contain freedom of speech under the guise of 'controllling' hate speech.

Before it is too late Nigerians Must put pressure on their elected representatives in the National Assembly (http://saharareporters.com/2016/04/13/saharareporters-publishes-contact-information-nigerian-lawmakers) To Urgently Pass A Joint Resolution on the Immediate Convening of a Referendum where Nigerians can indicate their Choice of these three options.

1. RESTRUCTURING: I agree that Nigeria should be restructured along Federal, Regional and Local Government lines.

2. BIAFRA: I support the creation of the sovereign state of Biafra.

3. STATUS QUO: I vote that the Status Quo remains


PS. The National Assembly might also be advised to amend the number of days a President can be away from duty so as to prevent a reoccurrence of this unsavoury situation.

We cannot and should not as a Nation be dragged back to the days of absolutist undemocratic government supported by a few.

fuckerstard:
True facts OP.

He just murmured couple of sentences and that's it, i was driving when he started his speech and every radio station i tuned into i still couldn't hear what he's saying until i read the transcript.

He should allow some journalists interview his asss e.g Amanpour (CNN)

Guess ke? I don't hide it o. I am a lecturer patapata But I'm a good-guy lecturer, not one of the (mythical, I hope) psycho types.

proffemi:
Thanks, I'm impressed by your ability to remain objective while passionately maintaining an opposing stance.

Absolutely. This is a point I flog to death on an almost daily basis. The blame for our failing educational system must be borne by government, students, parents...and ASUU! I have said (even on this site) before that the academics of this country have failed her.

Having said that, this is the dilemma in which we find ourselves as a country: we need the universities to function well to have any hope of national development. If the nation's academics have so far not performed, do we stop funding the universities? Mind you, by "not performed", we're talking about a grade of 50C, rather than 30F IMO (also IMO, nothing stops us academics from achieving 80A).

The solution can NEVER be to deny funding to the universities. The solution is to ensure proper funding AND ensure the universities deliver. They are not mutually exclusive.


The truth is: neither you nor I know that for a fact.


ASUU won't, as a matter of principle, push for fee hikes. I'm not saying I agree (or not). So that leaves them with just the one option I guess.

Abudu2000:
lol, u mean range rover evoque that looks like golf 4 Bro there is this class that gwagon comands...the maturity is well bigger than rr....above all it carries a more powerfull engine

proffemi:
I don't need to do it for you. Go to any CSC, EEE, or MEE department in a federal university. Compute staff remuneration per year. Compute cost of equipment, facilities, energy. Compute how much it costs to manage hostels for students. Divide by the student population.


Wasteful spending, mismanagement: of course I'm not. Can you show me a SINGLE sector of Nigeria where the above don't apply?

As to the secrecy part, I have no idea what you're talking about. Isn't that part of the oversight functions of the NUC/Ministry to maintain accountability and probity?


I suppose this is a rhetorical question. Allowing for the usual issues of corruption (which bites EVERYWHERE in Nigeria, need I remind you?) if you open your eyes, you will see what previous government interventions were used for.



Yes, government must get accountability. Who is arguing against that? Definitely not ASUU.


[Quote] BTW revenue generating agency remit to government coffers. Do universities remit any percentage of their IGR?
They do not. Should they? Please educate me on this.

proffemi:
Lol.

Statements like yours point to the real problem: most students and parents have absolutely zero idea how much proper tertiary education actually costs. How can a man value something if he doesn't even know what it costs? People like you make so many references to the (usually) meager IGR of universities as if they are magic bullets, because you have no idea the enormity of the problem.

What if I told you that an engineering BSc for which the average federal university student pays around N40k pa actually costs something in the ballpark of N 2,000,000 pa? How many consultancy services will universities run to manage such a deficit if government does not step up its game And that begs the question: are universities commercial entities that are duty-bound to generate the deficits from IGR, or should students pay appropriately-hiked fees?

HenryDion:
This is so sad. So even boats do have accidents despite the fact that its not crowded like our roads nor does potholes exist. What will be the excuse now? That government refuse to patch the sea abi? RIP to the dead.

She stated she does not know details of the agreement reached yet she's claiming demands are unrealistic


Confused woman

Iamzik

I thought you are an igbo man.

Can you give me one reason why igbo leaders of youths did not give Hausas same ultimatum to leave the east?

Since you are so brave and ready to fight you should have given the Hausas a shorter ultimatum. Instead your governors and elders travelled to the north to beg and you are here ranting.

Igbos don't issue quit notice, they never have. Juliet is a masculine? Igbos never asked for a fight but a referendum.
which good wiil.people are saying they want a separate country you are talking some thing else.

Icedprince1d:
President Buhari returned to Nigeria today after spending over 3 months in the UK receiving medical treatments for an undisclosed ailments. He was welcomed by a large turnout of supporters who mobbed his car as he made his way to the presidential villa.

“Most Igbos say they are the people that developed Lagos and made Lagos what it is today. They say without Igbos, Lagos is finished. And I keep wondering how have Igbos helped in shaping and developing Lagos?

“Lets get the fact right, Igbos didn't develop Lagos rather, it is Lagos that shaped and made the Igbos what they are today. Without Igbos in Lagos, Lagos will remain Lagos and without Lagos, most Igbos may likely be nothing.

“Reason for my assertion is that most giant and top companies that attract millions of people across the country to Lagos are not owned by the Igbos so, how have Igbos shaped and developed Lagos?

“These are the achievements and economic advancement Igbos gave Lagos and Lagosians; Tokunbo and Fake Spare Parts at Ladipo Market, China Electronics and Pirated CDs at Alaba Market, Bend-Down and Select Clothes at Idumota, Yaba and Kotangowa Markets, Chinese and Tokunbo Computer/Phones and Accessories at Computer Village Ikeja are Igbos economical achievements and contributions to Lagos. In fact, most Igbos are causing nuisances in Lagos. A visit to these markets will tell you the amount of nuisances that Most Igbos have caused in Lagos. The environments these Igbo traders are mostly populated are always polluted with waste of all sorts, they are dirty, stinking, rough, erect illegal shops on the roads, on pipeline and railway lines indiscriminately in these market places that cause traffic gridlocks and other dangerous situations and when Lagos State Government dismantles these illegal shops, they get angry. If Lagos State Government closes their shops for environmental violations, they pick offence. How then have the Igbos developed Lagos?.... think on these......

“As far as I am concerned, PZ, COCA-COLA, 7UP, CADBURY, MTN, ZAIN, GLO, ETISALAT, DANGOTE, SHOP-RITE, GOLDEN PENNY, FLOUR MILL, INDOMIE, UNILEVER, P&G, CHI LIMITED, GUINNESS, NIGERIA BREWERIES, OANDO, CONOIL, TOTAL, MOBIL, CHEVRON, SHELL, KFC, AQUADANA, EKO HOTEL, INTER CONTINENTAL HOTEL, PROTEA HOTEL, JULIUS BERGER, RCC CONSTRUCTION, NESTLE, KPMG, GSK, FRIESLAND FOODS, WAMCO, BRITISH AMERICA TOBACCO, SCHLUMBEGER, AIT, SILVERBIRD TV, CHANNELS TV, LARFARGE, etc are not owned by the Igbos. These companies are what attracted millions of people to Lagos.

“Igbos shouldn't lay claim that they developed a place by becoming nuisances. Most of the top Churches in Lagos are not also owned by Igbos. House on the Rock, Redeemed Christian Church of Christ, Christ Embassy, Deeper Life, Living Faith, MFM, etc are not owned by Igbos. The only Church that's reasonably big and is owned by an Igbo man is TREM, while another Igbo Church, Lord Chosen Church, encourages nuisance in Lagos and it also doubles as the dirtiest Church in Lagos.

“Records show that 75% of robbery cases in Lagos are carried out by Igbos, 85% of ritual cases in Lagos are carried out by Igbos, 60% of drug cases in Lagos are carried out by Igbos, 70% of fraud cases in Lagos are carried out by Igbos, 90% of pirated CD cases in Lagos are carried out by Igbos, 60% of fake and adulterated drugs in Lagos that have killed thousands of Lagosians are carried out by Igbos, in fact, most of the crimes in Lagos are connected to the Igbos, so how have the Igbos developed Lagos when they can't get their hands off crime?

“There's no Igbo man among the top three richest people in Nigeria, so how are they successful?

“The truth is that Igbos should be grateful that the Yorubas accommodated them in Lagos peacefully, they shouldn't take the meekness and kindness of the Yorubas for granted.

“Igbos didn't make Lagos but it is actually Lagos that made Igbos.”

This is my Lagos story: true Lagosian, proud Lagosian.

Yorubasta are just noise makers. Hausa don't talk but have given quit notice. Yorubastas are here blabbing jazz. All mouth no action. Abeg pack out of the Niger delta. All they have been doing here on this thread is calling Igbos their one and only saviour. Niger deltans have quit notice they are here blaming igbos.

IkpuMmadu:
Yoruba can't fight Igbo or anybody....


One they are legendary cowards and won't dare it

Two ..if they dare it...Igbo will fight back in Lagos and that will mean burning down Lagos


Choose your words carefully


Face the Niger Delta youths ....don't bite more than you can chew

sarrki:

A prayer of a sinner is a noise to God

Aburi001:
Non of them can withstands Buhari.

Which other politician in Nigeria will get this kind of welcome after 103 days away from home apart from Kanu who is NOT A POLITICIAN ?
