The stories are not without foundation.

Gusau has been rumoured to be resigning since May to pursue his own Presidential ambition. Gusau has already declared his intention by proxy of several political groups.

@ Abagworo,

You said Amanyanabo is your inlaw. I hope you talking about Ibulubo, not Chief Abam.

ow11:
Waterside have been existing for decades and did not know this kind of violence till Odili came into power

Except for Ogoni-Okrika rampage at Bundu waterside and Creek Road market, you are correct.

Back then sef, Ikwerre ninjas give us more headache.

BTW, Ikwerres cannot be the most populous in Rivers State. Kalabari easily outnumber them, maybe Okrika sef.

Ozil isnt the finished product. Khedira certainly is.

Ozil goes missing for large chunks of the season.

Khedira is pretty much a 7/10 player all season through.

JM future minded? hahahaha. These two deals were the most obvious VFM deals of the summer.

What are Spurs playing at?

Who wouldnt buy Khedira, Ozil at that price with one year left on their contract?

If Real had the money, JM would have preferred to sign Lampard and Gerrard for £35m each. 

It seems the sole purpose of Arsenal fan thread is to discuss Wenger's frugality.

Una no get different topic to discuss?

Naira was devalued most during objs tenure .

That was only because Abacha had pegged the Naira so he and his cronies could make money from the arbitrage between the Cenbank price and the parallel market price. OBJ lifted this peg, hence the sudden rise in 1999/2000.

Amaechi should not forget that the insecurity problem in Okrika was caused by those he was sharing a table with (Abiye Sekibo, Odili) who tried to use the Koniju/Tuboniju dichotomy to steal power for PDP in Okrika. Before pointing fingers at the Okrika leaders, he must remember that it was his duty as Speaker to bring the law to bear on Odili/Sekibo for sponsoring the civil war in Okrika after the death of Amanyanabo SPU Ogan and the succession struggle that followed. There is no way he can point fingers at anyone in Okrika without incriminating himself.

Secondly, Mr Amaechi was my next-door neighbour in Okarki street in Borokiri in the 1990's. I hope he will also remember his history as a waterside boy before justifying his scorched earth policy in the Waterfronts of Borokiri. We are 3 years into his tenure and yet to see the proposed transformation of these waterfronts.

He has to pay his assistants out of the same N15million. . . abi dat no be fair price?

Nice one. . . always enjoy Razors tracks. . . . O4ka must be feeling privileged that a nice emcee like Razor took time out to diss him. . . . please dont kill a fly with a machine gun. . .

Someone's taking the piss you know. . . . I dont know why FPL auto-subbed Lamps as my captain instead of Malouda. . .

Anyway, Im laffing cos this league is mine. . . .


BTW, who be dis Wakawiki FC? I need to change my name from Wakirike Wanderers cos the thing dey confuse me. . .

@ V3,

Why you dey disturb my inbox?

We just dey exchange playful banter and you dey send us PM say we have NO RIGHT whatsover to question your actions because you be MOD. . . . hehehehe. . . . cool down, Sergeant Roger.

hehehehe. . . . Jarus, welcome to the 9-5 job of moderating the politics section. . . . you will hate Nairaland after doing this job for a couple of months. . . . hehehehe. . . .

debosky:
That's a tad hasty - he didn't have a good game, but a number of others didn't either. AA23 admitted that he's struggling for form, so he will get better. I can imagine some paranoid Gooners would be up in arms against Wenger if we lost/drew with AA23 off the field, especially at Anfield.

He's being doing that for the last 12 months now, plus he's not producing in the final third. . . . better sell him back to the Russians while you can still get £20m for him. . . .

A draw at Anfield is a great result. . .

I think its time to call time on Arshavin's Arsenal career. . . . that boy is just lazy, lackadaisical and careless in possession. . . . he doesnt respect his teammates on the pitch by giving away possession cheaply, with not even a nominal attempt to win it back. . . . nor does he respect his club in the media either.

Next thing, they will be recommending population control and eugenics.

All the achievements listed including signing of AMCON and the SME loan scheme were already initiated by SLS before Jonathans swearing in.

The only thing new amongst these achievements has been the disbursement of N74bln for voter registration. . . . a move greeted with much cynicism by seasoned observers who are still waiting for full implementation of the Uwais report.

Claiming that GJ readjusted the budget is a smokescreen. The initial budget he proposed was overinflated. Okonjo-Iweala, SLS and Remi Babalola complained about the unrealistic oil-price benchmark as soon as the budget was drawn up. Two weeks later, Jonathan simply fell in line by readjusting the budget.

I dont need to add that the Haliburton scandal has been completely swept under the carpet.

So far, all of Jonathans visible work has been a machavellian realigning of PDP to ensure that he secures the 2011 mandate. This started with the sacking of Ogbulafor, and the hounding of Ibori and Bankole. In addition, choosing Sambo as his VP was a machiavellian orchestration to ensure that the new Christian Governor of Kaduna would deliver the state for him; as his chances of winning Kaduna under a muslim Governor are slim to none.

I dare say that if he spends as much time delivering for the people as he does strategising for 2011, he would be the greatest Nigerian leader so far, but just like the evil genius IBB, all his energy and mental faculty seem to employed toward the sole aim of political survival.

What a ph@cking nightmare. . .

Ivanovic aint even playing, meaning I only have 10 players. . .

My Wigan picks flopped, Shawcross flopped, and I chose Foster over Robinson. . . .

Cech

Ferreira Alex Terry Cole

Mikel

Essien Lamps

Anelka Malouda

Drogba

I think history has already borne out the fact that it was right to question ICBN's wonder figures. . .

^^^ Thats true, they can only report on the erroneous figures that ICBN was giving out.

Happy Birthday dawg. . .

^^^ These are Bloomberg terminal figures, not mine. . . would find it hard to question Bloomberg's figures. . .

@ Paddylo,

Here's the First Bank ratios from same time. . .

First bank marketcap was N470bln

Intercontinental marketcap was N485bln

About the same. . .


So by Nov 2007, ICBN is claiming to have more than 5 times more net assets than First Bank. . .


ICBN net assets = 485bln/0.92 = N527bln

FBN net assets = 470bln/5.64 = N83bln
