Following your logic Buhari shouldn't be president because with a Waec or it's equivalent you can't contest for public office in Nigeria but Our president instead of presenting one hire 13 SANS? So much for Integrity. This man has publicly called for full implementation of the Sharia law in Nigeria-same thing Boko Haram is fighting for - And publicly said that an attack on Boko Haram is an attack on the north and made statements that started the 2011 election violence . This man is leading us to hell and it'll be too late before men like you realise. Buhari has been know to be a hard core tribalist and has completely made mockery of our federal character not like it's a problem for you considering you're northerner.
Where ever there's smoke there's fire. Why haven't the new DG come out to say the senator is lying.

Dude are you serious? From farmers/herders clashes to Islamization of Nigeria to North/South divide to NIA DG and now to PMB secondary school certificate. "sigh"
Between you and whatever you believe in, can you sincerely look at Buhari and say "this man did not have degree talk less of finishing secondary school"?
Did you read what you wrote, you are implying that PMB is sponsoring BH
And how many times do I have to tell you that there is no islamization agenda in Nigeria. Nigeria is officially a secular democratic country, it is fvcking written in the constitution, for that to change, NASS must approve.
You have to ask NIA DG why he hasn't debunked the rumours.

On the issue of Military Head Chiefs, IMO it has nothing to do with marginalization but everything to do with protecting themselves. The Issue of coups and counter coups is still fresh in their mind, so they choose somebody who is the least likely to betray them. OBJ did it, Jonathan, Buhari, they all did it. And I don't think it's going to change until when they are all gone. (IBB, PMB, OBJ, Gowon, Abdulsalami and all their ilk)

Point of correction: I am not from the North, well at least not North as in "North" if you understand what I mean.

And please let's stop this discussion because I am sure some some people here are beginning to imagine what we will look like plastered to a wall, with the military ones imagining our face in shooting range.

Lastly, please don't bother to quote me again because even if you do I will try not to reply (I might fail because for some reason I am really enjoying this ) but I will try really really hard even if I have tie my hands.

Official apologies for derailing the thread guys.

https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/255862-apc-senator-berates-buhari-accuses-president-appointing-incompetent-people.html. I betting you know more than a senator?

From the article "He alleged that Mr. Abubakar failed examinations preceding his appointment."
Like I said earlier "alleged". And how did he know all these, NIA reports only to the president and is the most secretive organization in all security agencies in Nigeria. He might be right (after all this is Nigeria) but from the known facts, the current NIA DG is qualified.

And Of course it has to be Isah Misau. The same senator who said there is a conspiracy to remove the Senate President.
The same senator who was docked for bribery.
The same senator who was charged to court for forgery.
The same senator who said the IGP sleeps with policewomen.
The most controversial senator after Oga Dino. "sigh" really?

Damn, I am enjoying myself. I think I should go back and study law, I just keep debunking whatever you came up with. Bring it on bro.

barineh:
NIA is headed by a man that was disgraced out of the Nia for failing promotion exams. He has a degree in French and Arabic and is partly Chadian. Our president is clueless as to how 21st security works. The Ipob never killed any one but I remember how he started the python operation killing tons of people who want out of this failed state but a group that actually moves from state to state killing people OUR president defense them and is asking people to part with their lands for them! God how low have we fallen how can the president of Nigeria use Nigeria's money that is made from the SOUTH to establish colonies for blood suckers from the North. Nigeria is a mistake! The day they bring this to port Harcourt or any south south city would be the day every one regrets being Nigerian.

WTF did I just read, dude forget staying away from politics section, you need to throw your phone or laptop or whatever you are using into the deepest part of the Atlantic Ocean, stay away from nairaland for the rest of your life.
On a serious note, everything you said about NIA DG is "alleged" nobody has been able to prove what you just said. But we can all confirm these:

He is a retired career foreign service officer.
He has B. A in French, M. A francophone/maghrebian literature (did it occur to you that Nigeria is surrounded by francophone countries?)
He served as SSA to president on foreign/international affairs.
Senior Adviser to MNJTF in Chad.
Speaks French and Arabic fluently (Arabic is spoken in Mali, Niger, Chad because of majority Muslim population).

Everything I just mentioned practically screamed "qualified".

You know just forget, I thought I was speaking to someone who can form a valid argument.

iblawi:
When I mentioned North I equally mentioned South. I never said chief of defence staff was from South West or chief of Naval staff was from South south.

All I said was North and south.

Bros, if don't get what is going on I will tell you. It all about expanding their caliphate and having more emirs in more States. They've succeeded in Nasarawa, Plateau kogi and kwara. Now it's Benue, Ekiti, Enugu etc. If you need ranches must you have in all states of the federation? And must it be by force? This is a personal business for God's sake why make it look like a government organization.

I just lost a friend and his entire family this December. It's painful to see people who live in Lagos, portharcourt, Calabar etc comment about this herdsmen crisis because you don't know what people are actually facing.

Spotted. The new generation of conspiracy theorists in Nigeria. This is what I meant when I said "you are not one of those who think the Fulanis are out to complete what Usman Dan Fodio started, are you?". The farmer/herder crisis is just what it is "farmer/herder crisis". There is no ulterior motive here. No islamization or fulanization or Emirization of Nigeria.

Good, since you are using south in general, let's take a look at Jonathan's security cabinet.
NIA: South
COAS: South
CAS: South
CDS: South
Defense (state): South
DSS: South


CNS:North
Defense: North
NSA: North

Fact: Since NIA was formed from now dissolved NSO back in 1986, this is only the third time that a notherner is appointed DG.

Now if this has been a thread where there are only Nigerians, I wouldn't have bothered to reply you, but there are foreigners here and I noticed that most foreigner's perception of Nigeria is formed around the South's opinion because notherners are not active on the internet like their southern counterpart.

And lest I forget, take a break away from the politics section in Nairaland, too much of it can make you think downside up.

kenpaul0:
Please show me where Governor Ortom rejected Ranching(which to be is the best solution). Establishing grazing reserves would not work...Land in part of Nigeria is sacred.....Sambissa is a large swathe of Land...The herdsmen can go there

Sorry, just confirmed, he proposed ranching but the problem is the implementation of anti grazing law before the ranches were established. The herdsmen are to buy the lands themselves, get C of O, as a Nigerian you know how tedious the process is, they complained the timeframe is too short yet he refuses to extend passing the bill into law.
And really? Sambisa forest?

But Pointing fingers isn't going to bring back the dead or restore damaged properties, let's just hope they sort this mess out.

iblawi:
Is ministry of interior a security agency? Still headed by someone from Kano a fulani. NSA is Kanuri and what is the difference? Another northerner.

The truth is, if nothing is done quickly we are heading for something worst than boko haram.

Apart from the navy and chief of defence staff, why must the head of every other agency be from the north and mainly from the same tribe that have being killing people.

Instead of solving problems you are asking governors to give them cattle colonies if they want peace. Should this be coming from a president? It's really annoying.

To be clear, my arguments here are for for the innocent herdsmen. (unless of course if you believe all herdsmen are killers).

Here is what I don't understand, Gov. Ortom rejected ranches, colonies (which I will like to point out are just bigger ranches) I also watched on YouTube he told Aljazeera that there is no land in all of Benue for herdsmen. Is he saying all of them should leave Benue? What solutions did he propose to curb these conflicts? (I am genuinely curious).

And again when speaking of the North, specify which part of the North you are referring to. The north is as diverse as the south. And for you to say there is not differences between Hausa and Kanuri shows just how ignorant you are about north. The only thing they have in common is religion (unless if that's what you are referring to when you keep saying north)

M14A1:
Educate me on one major heavy handed decision PMB has undertaken as regards killer herdsmen

Let me quickly run a check on Google

I meant "heavy-handed" as in slow in taking actions. But whatever makes you happy dude.

iblawi:


The president is also a fulani. He will never give such order to kill his tribal men or their cattles. Nowadays, cattles enter hotels, major road and even the presidential villa uncontrolled not to talk of farm land. All the head our intelligence agencies are fulani and all others security agencies are northern except the chief of defence staff and chief of Naval staff.
Sometimes, I feel this was done for a purpose.

You are not one of those who think the Fulanis are out to complete what Usman Dan Fodio started, are you? The farmer/fulani conflict have been going on for almost a century now. Agreed it has never been bloody as this but still, To say PMB didn't take action because he's one of them is ridiculous, PMB have always been heavy handed in making decisions. And I like how you say North as if it's not divided like the south.

abiodunalasa:
I dont think we have gain so much ground against BH by being that carless...

What if our troops deliberately went to that CRASH SITE with insufficient fire power just to draw out the BH bastards ?

Like, what if it is actually an ISR stunt ?

"PLAY A SUCKER TO CATCH A SUCKER" Act of war by Sun Tzu. Robert Greene also illustrate it in 48 Laws of Power.

What if that Shilka was just a dummy, meant to be destroyed ?

At least now our troops know the following ;

*how very fast BH can mobilize
*how very useless our jets are in close quarter combat between our ground troops and enemy ground troops.
*their new fighting tactics
*their heavy weapons and what it looks like
*their drones capability etc etc

In fact, what if NAF actually crashed that Helo in that particular region just to have a proper recce of that place in the event of our troops advancement in that region ? This last possibility is supported by how the Pilots of the crashed Helo quickly escaped and how our troops quickly withdraw in the face of attack.

Well, am just trying to look at it from a brighter angle.
Or maybe have seen too much Hollywood shit shows.

This one Na Three much Hollywood.
Nigeria do not have enough shilka and MI 17 lying around for what you said to be possible.

tdayof:
Yes. 30% for 150 million naira. we will look for Chinese investors and then take 10%.


DHQ? DEAL or NOT?

If it's the Chinese, I will pass.

Someone mentioned about privatization of Dicon. The trick is to sell enough stake that they will be concerned how the company is run but not enough for them to have actual power or influence. Somewhere about 40-45% should be enough.

Off-topic:
Chaps, did Pres Buhari just announce some appointments that included 8 dead people? Or are his opponents making mischief?

True, but the list was compiled late 2015, so when the appointments were confirmed 2017, they didn't go through the list again hence the mistake (that's their excuse).

Sheun001:
Well the solid fact remains debruyne is better than pogba anytime anywhere

what facts?

CELEBRITIZ:
He can't play 11 and 10.

"Although naturally right-footed, due to his ability with either foot, he is capable of playing anywhere along the front line, on either flank, or through the centre of the pitch: throughout his career, he has been deployed as a supporting striker, as a winger, as a false-9, and even as an attacking midfielder; he has recently also been used in a more advanced, central role, as a main striker" From Wikipedia.

He scored more than 20 goals from central role last season in all competition.

CELEBRITIZ:
I swear ooo,I tire ooo.
Na ozil we need ooo not Sanchez. Can he play the right wing? Its a no for me,why d hell did we wanna buy him? Accepting he want to convert rashford to a second striker

Sanchez can play any position in forward (even false 9) he played 11 in Barcelona, 7 and 10 in Arsenal.

Fun fact: Paul Pogba with only 13 pl games has 9 assists while KDB has 9 assists after 23 pl games.

[quote author=Nelsizzy post=64231326]Gooooaaaal
Martial
Pogba with his ninth assist this season. Who is De Bruyne? [/quote

Pogba's younger brother from our "noisy neighbours"

Manchester United have started again ooo, they always relax when they score!

Tomoyayi:
Scored not kicked

That's what Michael said, besides he has never scored with left.

Maybe he meant kick as in "shoot"

Interesting stat: this is only the 6th time Antonio Valencia has kicked the ball with his left foot in his entire Manchester United career -Michael Meagher.

Lingardinho to score

If Israel is not in Africa where is it. Middle East is not a continent. And don't say Asia or Europe so best guess middle east is part of African continental land but we don't control it anymore.

Middle East in in Asia.

Xbee and slimthug trying to educate some ingrates on this thread https://www.nairaland.com/4289403/naf-takes-delivery-final-batch
I am crying and laughing at the same time. Somebody said we should go for F22, another said they are old, the next was "we should go rafale and dassault though he spelt it as "dassol" the other one was "what the US use for training it's pilots is what we are using as fighter jet" Somebody even went as far as "its an APC propaganda", someone said they are meant for "tourist" someone completely missed the road to his village and went from arguing about the planes to Nigerian economy, slimthug got fed up, just said OK and left. (though I have to say he tried) . Xbee still trying sha.
