Hmm wait oooo....so in your opinion, 16 is still greater than 19? My point is the opposite

then u r off point, hw can a point be opposite? Pls who has seen an opposite point before?

MosquitoREBIRTH:
So 5years is a little time to make an impact? Hmmmmm.... u try well well..

wait d same 5yrs is staring u at d face.

Demdem:

Fool, how can ur shameless deceit pain me? Fool, swear with ur unborn seeds that ur cursed heros aren't guilty of what u are accusing and hating the best governor of Rivers for?

yea will agree with u mumu1 of ubima, he was d best while in pdp suit but since he change jacket he became d worst. Hw many projects did he commissioned as apc govr?
U see am NONE.

ElDeeVee:
Wats ur point?

waht was ur point?

Volksfuhrer:
And you think I am not "sophisticated"?

In any case, there's nothing sophisticated about the article. Besides, "sophisticated" citizens don't think for me.

The article is pathetically bad tempered. It's just days since the inauguration, and yet you expect PMB to wave a magic wand and wish away the rot that took decades to form! The " sophisticated" citizen even went further to compare PMB with Cameron: that PMB "didn't hit the ground running"! Really? You see, PMB has peculiar problems to deal with, one of which is to get a good grip on APC if he wants to succeed, and he cannot do that by taking rash decisions. Cameron doesn't have this problem, and I'm left bewildered how our "sophisticated" citizen didn't factor this point before "misfiring"!

The article is nothing but a hate campaign.

Kindest regards

if u r a realist u would hv saw the future of this new govt.
Apc is made of 4 parties, they fused to become one, all wif diffrnt ideologies. How pmb will control dem would be d beginning of his tenure but d way we r seein it, the reverse is d case. What happened to the emergency meeting d party convened on thursday to chose a consensus candidate? As we r talkng apc has 3 candidates for dat senate president office, n u think this is right, when pdp just need 6 votes from apc to get that seat unless they just dont wanna play spoilers for them. Bobo till now no vital appointments hv been made even d commonest as sgf. Amaechi n onu are lobbying:......... Imagine if amaechi lose out what will happen. Imagine if saraki wins against all odds maybe allying with pdp cos that guy really needs that seat.

CSTR2:
Buhari should get to work.
That is a simple request that any reasonable human being can agree with it.
For a president who has been running for the presidency in the past 12 years ,we expect a much better level of preparedness .
Only a matter of time before his goodwill evaporates.

not just running for 12yrs but was the head of state for 20months yet no clue on how to start running a govt.nigeria is bad, yes. But d question we shud be asking ourselves is was nigeria anyway good or better before?

ElDeeVee:
Hmmm now I see u r a PDP person. Anyways, its all good. Lemme ask u dis question, if u r in a gathering and u r to vote for a leader under a Democratic process which means majority will always carry d vote and a contestant had 16 while d oda one had 19...who wins?
Unfortunately GEJ made a mistake of interfering in the NGF election which is unacceptable as his anointed candidate (jang ) had 16...This prompted the seven govs to walk out of the PDP, forming a new party in d process. This, and many others were d flaws of d past administration and ultimately led to d collapse of the party

lemme ask u dis question, if u r in a democratic setting n d law clearly spelled that a chairmanship post is just for a single term, n someone flout that law just because he has d backing of people who r superior to d laws at some extent. Will u vote for him?

xcolanto:
One chance is an understatement to capture the height of insensivity and hypocrisy this current government is running on and displaying.
This is gross incompetence, cluelessness and brainlessness of the highest order! The dura man has appointed himself the sole administrator of the Nigerian estate. In his "throne" the man sees himself as the "righteous one", "his holyness", "mr intergrity" and therefore no other person can match his delusional status and is worth handling the affairs of this country.
Little wonder the portfolio of petroleum minister is reserved for the "holy one" and I see him eyeing tourism with the rate the guy tours the globe showcasing his love for power.

When an opposition party struggles hard for years to steal power from the ruling party and 1week later they still clueless, that's the best definition of cluelessness.n

its appalling my bro, even apc apologist could attest to the fact that we dont hv credible person to mount that position, only baba now is the credible person in a population of 170+million persons. So all apc guys r thieves? Baba build more prisons o cos w e needs it.

Chubhie:
It doesn't bug me cos it is never my problem to deal with it. How they elect to handle it is entirely theirs.

I trust that ministry is part of sai baba agenda cos he seems to have gone into hiding and wondering why people misquote him from 1$ to 1naira. His strategic team has identified comprehension as the root cause. Expect changes in that aspect Bro.

MizMyColi:
Exaccerly!!!

Sometimes, when I do my sarcastic criticisms, I give myself a hearty laugh before posting.
Lmao.

My close friend is APC, and when we are done with our usual banters, I'd tell him...

After all is said and done, we want a Nigeria that works.

If he is an individual with foresight...
He will allow these criticisms be his fuel, his drive to succeed.

Fayose comes to mind.
He was heavily criticized...
But most of us are now doffing our hearts.
If for nothing, but his resilience.

Gbam!
All we r sayng we want a good country.

coputa:
I wonder,they want PMB to fix in just one week,what PDP destroyed for sixteen years.What an unrealistic demand.

pdp didnt destroy naija, people destroy naija. People like obasanjo, atiku, n d rest..... The last i checked those people r chilling in apc with a broom at hand.

nicklaus40:
Whatever ur opinion is about the movement of command center u can't knw more than buhari about military strategy, he has the experience wich u can't take away as regards appointment u nid to chill a lil,this is not abt satisfying diverse interest, this is Nigeria with diverse tribes nd zones he nids to be careful, he must wait for the assembly to be sworn in and see ppl dat emerge as senate pres and speaker because all geo political zone must be represented in his govt

bobo we aint talkng abt tribes abi geopolitical zones, d south south n south east knws they aint part of this govt after d result was announed, so buhari shud look asap name his ministers even if na from one state so far they deliver. We r talkng of competence not tribalism abi ethnicity.

MizMyColi:
Some of us have an idea already.

But then again, we must hope against hope.

It's funny though, but every time I'm tempted to join the wagon of heavy criticism...

I remind myself that at least....there's light in my house.

exactly, me too i live ina street whr we hv light atleast 18hrs a day, d only probs we hv is transformer breakdown due to much loads. We fit generate but when transmitting is faulty, generation automatically becomes useless.
But am enjoyng the bashng sha, it will make buhari wake up, get up n RUN. If gej was walkng, baba shud be running, if gej was running, baba shud be flying.

themilanway:
Apologies for tagging you one of the"doomsayer",the reason I tagged you is because you seem to be in bed with a lot of"them"here.You know those I'm talking about,don't you?

The media played a great role in ensuring APC swept the poll clean,are you by anyway blaming the media for doing its primary duties which are to:Entertain,inform and educate the public

"The sizeable chunk of the populace"were simply tired of PDP and its inept government of over 15yrs,weren't you tired?Are you still blaming the media?

The writer like you pointed out was making valid points until he inseted"A better-prepared Atiku",I was also at loss of words on whether to take him serious or not .

You want action?PMB will give you action film.

dont forget miming, sidon look all na action.

Volksfuhrer:
Buhari knows what he's doing... And he will deliver big time!

I've never seen losers/haters like these before...TANoids of different shapes and sizes! You guys should get a life!

TANoids, your hatred of PMB can seriously damage your health o!

stop misfiring bobo, this article was written by a sophisticated citizen. We r just doing justice to it.

coputa:
You want PMB to use fire brigade approach in tackling Nigeria reoccuring problems,created by improper planning,you people can never learn from history.Things has to be done differetly.

but u guys wanted jonathan to use usain bolt speed to run d govt, cant u see that is hypocricy at its alarming peak?

MizMyColi:
Exactly!
That's the spirit Bro!!!

Even though we're not outrightly supporting him.
Reasons being the hypocritical, propagandic vehicle and charade with which those behind him shot him to power, I reckon that God can use anybody. I reckon that he might actually do better, if the cabals leave him be.

It's just sometimes, we must call out their hypocrisy and double facedness for what it is.

i wont say fingers crossed cos i dey like use my hands chop eba, u cant tell what it might be like.

PassingShot:
You're obviously a teenager from your post.

For your info, there can't be any minister now since the president needs to submit their names to the NASS for approval. So, he cannot name any minister for now. Not until the Senate returns from their recess in July.

Are there no Service Chiefs? Has the president sacked any of them?

I will expect the usual insults associated with frustrated children of anger and hate from you BUT you won't get a reply.

those service chiefs r jonathans, buhari suppose to appoint his, that would hv kick start d new govt. N dont tell me no assmbly to clear them cos 15 SAs where cleared dis week. Cant u see what ambode is doing, relief some key appointments n appoints temporary ones. Maybe baba dey study hw to kickstart or he is still looking for tips on hw to start. Chai naija don enter ONECHANCE!

brytandre:
For those that think it takes only PMB to fix Nigeria....

For those who have Governors, SSS, state Police and still have Boko Haram threats.....


For those who run their mouths at Government, when they can't even mind their own business....


Naija I hail!



Rubbish post.



And for those that are missing GEJ (Mr fresh air), he is at Otuoke.


One week in office for PMB! God bless the President (irrespective of who), God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria!!

u still hv 3yrs 11mnths n 21days to defend babaonechance, i pray u dont fall by d wayside. Recieve strength in jesus name.

MizMyColi:
@Emboldened
That's you doomsdaying and doomsaying

Don't we all have the doom element in us?

I don't know if you'll be realistic bro.
But what we are seeing now is not at par with what we expected.

The writer of that post made valid points that I was at a loss for words on what to comment.

If you say Buhari will perform, what is he waiting for? We need to start feeling his impact my dear.

APC used the social media and the media holistically to win the hearts of a sizable chunk of our populace.

This time, the media won't cut it.
Action will.
Action Bro.

That said, despite my all time scepticism of the change chants and movement, I haven't categorically joined the "DoomSayers" yet

If I ever do, then know that Nigeria, under this administration is beyond redemption

dont mind these apc apologist, thr r so gullible n predictable. I thought lemme not use thought in this context, i thought' still dont find any word to replace it' buhari would hv first relief all the service chiefs of their appointments n appoint new ones. Atleast that would hv bring strong signal that we r in a change era, but 1week after we r still hearing d same names n we aint even sure weada those names will disappear soon from media headlines.
As for me didnt vote for him n am not expecting anyrhing good from him so i will more happy if he doesnt fail to my forecast.
Still wish him goodluck n wisdom cos he needs it more esp now.
Babaonechance!

but why Us dey put beta job give nigeria presidents na? N na dis same issue do mek jonathan lose credibility in foreign stance, now e don enter babaonechance hand.
Sule lamido....jonathan is like a madman wif a lighter in a filling station. Thank god jona didnt lite it n he sucessfully transfer d lighter to baba onechance.
Baba abeg no lite that lighter o cos naija go burn o. 3yrs 11months 21days to hold d Lighter!
Nigerians pray baba should lite that thng o or better still make e spoil.

A KEY REASON WHY SOME FORMER PRESIDENTS MOVED AGAINST JONATHAN IN 2015....and worked for Buhari's emergence:

180m HALLIBURTON SCANDAL: Two ex-Heads of State battle Jonathan

on october 30, 2012.

BY KINGSLEY OMONOBI

ABUJA — Following the directive by President Goodluck Jonathan that the investigative report into the $180 million Halliburton bribery scandal be re-opened and the major culprits re-arrested, Vanguard gathered that this has resulted in a fall out between two former heads of state and President Jonathan.

The two former heads of state (names withheld) were said to have been found in the investigative report to have benefitted from the sharing of the Halliburton bribe money using fronts who have already confessed that they were only fronting for their principals.

Incidentally, when the investigation team took off from Abuja sometime in 2010 and landed in Ibadan on their way to the home of one of the indicted persons, Bodunde Adeyanju, to recover documents relating to how the Halliburton bribe money was collected and disbursed, the team was sent back to Abuja from the Ibadan airport.

Jonathan determined to prosecute suspect..

It was gathered that President Jonathan is determined to prosecute those found wanting in the bribery scandal to demonstrate not only to Nigerians who feel he is a toothless bulldog when it comes to fighting corruption, but also to show the international community that corrupt people, no matter their status in the society, can be brought to book in Nigeria.

And as part of this determination, it was gathered that an approval has been secured by the five-man inter-agency panel headed by the Inspector General of Police, including EFCC, SSS, and ICPC, to travel to France, United Kingdom, Switzerland and Spain to confirm the foreign leg of the investigations which mostly involves wiring of the funds, the amounts and the account holders.

It will be recalled that this aspect of the investigation was to be carried out in 2010, as the visas had been acquired and about N50million meant for the trip and investigation expenses made available but the trip was called off following pressure said to have been mounted on the office of the Attorney General of the federation by a former head of state.

Already, Vanguard gathered that the US government has sent a letter to the Federal Government warning that it may apply certain amount of sanctions in line with international anti-corruption protocols if the culprits are not prosecuted and if the $26.5 million paid by Julius Berger as Plea Bargain is not located and given to the Police.

Meanwhile, the Police authorities are said to be working round the clock to unravel the mystery surrounding whereabouts of the Julius Berger plea bargain money with the Inspector General of Police vowing that the money must be found.

It was gathered that as part of investigation on the matter, all the receipts of plea bargain money returned by other suspects during investigation, and whose amounts were lodged in such government accounts with the Central Bank of Nigeria, Ministry of Finance, Accountant General’s office and the office of the Accountant General of the federation have been recalled and the monies located except that returned by Julius Berger.

It will be recalled that President Jonathan had directed the Police to resuscitate the investigative report of the $180million Halliburton scam following America ’s insistence that the culprits in the bribery scandal must be brought to book before the $130million in US coffers can be returned to Nigeria .

America also insisted that the $26.5million plea bargain money returned by Construction giant, Julius Berger, must be located and made available to Police following suspicion that the money has developed legs and ended up in some person’s pocket.

Since the directive there has been confusion over the whereabouts of the huge amount of money and this according to sources has angered President Jonathan who has subsequently charged the Attorney General of the federation, Mr. Mohammed Adoke to fish out the money and make it available to the Police by end of this week.

The decision to task the Attorney General with the assignment according to sources followed conflicting statements by both Julius Berger, office of the Accountant General of the federation and the Police investigators about the true position of the funds. One account said the money was in the possession of the Accountant General of the federation. Another account said the money was being kept in the office of the AGF while the Police said they are at a loss of the money’s whereabouts.

Julius Berger one of the companies indicted in the Halliburton $180 million bribery scandal had opted for a plea bargain in order to be speared the prosecution process following the conclusion of the 5 man inter-agency investigation panel.

End.

MY TWO CENTS:

These same leaders that fought Jonathan worked for Buhari's emergence knowing that if Jonathan wins a second term, they'd face the music. However, they didn't expect that "I belong to no one" speech from their Buhari!

NOW THIS...

Buhari reopens $182m bribery case

3 ex-leaders (all closet APC members who helped install buhari as president), others may face trial.
http://www.tribuneonlineng.com/content/buhari-reopens-182m-bribery-case

Hehehehehehehehehe!!!!!! They put a bull in a China shop!

Soon all hell will break loose, i.e. if Buhari has the courage to attack those who made him President!

APC may collapse sooner than we expect!

Watching intensely!

n foolish people here saying jonathan was clueless, n encouraging corruption. Lets see how mr integrity i fare in d coming weeks.

omenka:
Sometimes I just hate how journalists in this country report news. "A former number two citizen", "two former presidents", bla bla bla. What arrant nonsense. If it were some guy that stole a pack of maggi cubes, they would spell his name and those of his grand parents, maybe include the names of his ancestors, and then put a bold pic of his face on the article you'd think the face is literally joting out of the page!

No one must be seen to be above the law. Let all those involved have their day in court and if found guilty, sentenced with hard labour and community service.

When you jail a former president or vice, I don't think a minister or perm sec's child would have the balls to drive around in Lanbos, Ferraris or Panameras.

May God protect Baba for us. Very perilous times lie ahead.

Just as Don Coleone said, a good Pope (President) often has many powerful enemies.

if dis case scale thru, will really support dis govt wholeheartedly n will even recommend a sound probe for the outgone govt.
Case where baba iyabo, atiku, abdulsalami dey involved? Chai na from dis case all cases would be thrown open n thieves of yesteryears forming progressives will be known. Baba u r not also leftout cos if u mess up ur former head of state, he will expose all what nigerians dont knw abt mr integrity.
Chai i need go church go pray concerning dis case. Dis case must scale thru in jesus name, amin

Now anoder tanker driver again now telling us the safest place to crash this one is in anoder crowded area and a personal building

Are there No bushes around to crash a tranker loaded with oil so as to reduce casualty b4 NEMA and FIRE SERVICE arrives ??

Honestly In the last one month the rate of tanker crash has increased more than ever

I jus pray this is nt Wat am thinking

GOOD MORNING ALL
