Politics / Re: Festus Keyamo Slams GEJ Again by ibson99(m): 12:22am On Jan 25, 2015
The fact is GEJ is too dull to be even a local chief in Otuoke mot to talk of ruling Nigeria. A vote for GEj is a vote for continuity of corruption, terrorism, cluelessness, mismanagement, impunity, national ridicule in front of the rest of the world

Arrest them all...including their illiterate master bukori and their sponsor tinuburuku if possible
looser... Dint you read the whole story, it said they were carrying GEJs posters and singing his praise songs b4 they later started throwing missiles. What has buhari got to do with that if they weren't paid their share of 21b and decided to dump the clueless one on his campaign venue

Politics / Re: Jonathan Not Fighting Corruption – Ex-ICPC Chairman. by ibson99(m): 10:09pm On Dec 31, 2014
Matthewbriggs:
According to Transparency international, Under Jonathan Nigerian in I year we went from 31th most corrupt country to 39th. 8steps forward

What happened? Was there actually a successful fight against corruption or did other countries just become more corrupt.
Well, this is what happened.

There are two sides to the fight. Prevention and punishment . while little has been seen regarding punishment, a lot has been done to prevent corruption. from strict banking rules, to transparent contract award and execution to more professional procurement processes and proper accounting processes. CBN, Ministry of finance and other government agencies have improved their processes to a good extent.
Is 39th most corrupt nation worth celebrating? Not at all. but Rome was not built in a day as they say.

The sad part is that all this means nothing to the Public. proper record keeping is no news. they want someone to be hanged. they want a 'big' man to be humiliated. the people want blood. and in this regard, the government gave them nothing. No politician in jail. no body to ridicule. So all the good behind the scene work has no political value. OBJ administration had terrible processes. Corruption was huge, but he gave the public the ''punishment'' they craved. Even if it was mainly visited on his political opponents, the people loved it.
This government has actually done a lot, but punishment is the only way to show you are fighting corruption. They simply did not ''show working'', thereby exposing itself to the accusation of tolerating corruption. Don't just work, be seen to be working. Its also called ''eye service''.

He is also the first Nigerian president to grant complete independence to the EFCC.
you make it sound as if clueless GEJ is the one developing computer codes and technology you are mentioning, trust me cashless policy and easier access to information are dividends of advancement in technology which GEJ has no contributions to
Politics / President Jonathan Relocates Family To The UK Ahead Of 2015 Elections by ibson99(m): 9:15pm On Dec 30, 2014
President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan is not winning the war against Boko Haram. An indication of his fears were confirmed with his recent visit to his kids earlier relocated from the British International School, Lekki, Lagos to London last month. Close aides of the President announced he was going to the United Kingdom without details on his mission last week. Close sources hinted his recent visit to the United Kingdom was to see his children who he might not see in the next few months of the electioneering campaign. On his visits were some of his close relations to ensure a family re-union. Prior to the relocation of the children from the British School, his aides had bought a befitting house in upscale London to accommodate the family and their aides, following threats and hints that Boko Haram were on their trails. Observers believed the move by the President preclude the notion that Nigeria is safe and confirms the fears in some quarters that a wholistic approach is being applied to tame insurgency. If that be the case where lies our hope and confidence that Nigeria is winning the war against Boko Haram Nigeria. Why should a Nigerian soldier put his life on the line when the President has relocated his own immediate family? Who wants to be a sacrificial lamb? These and more probing questions are on the lips of Nigerians who expressed dismay at the development. As at today, there is no statement credited to the Presidency or his aides on his mission to the United Kingdom. -Radio Biafra, London.

Knowledge is key!!

Try find out how much each state and the federal govt make from bookies in

taxes, monthly good cause charges and annual operating license fees.

You'll be shocked
they don't, cos the constitution regards betting as gambling, and the constitution is vague abt gambling. If anybody is collecting any thing from bookies trust me it doesn't get to the government's purse

On the issue of cutting costs, I think its past time we remove constituency project allowance from the remuneration of our lawmakers, its completely useless cos most of them don't do any project and that alone is over 50% of their exuberant pay.
and on generating more money, its time we looked at how to tax gambling in this country, most bookmakers are making huge money from Nigerian gamblers and they don't even pay a dime in taxes. Britain is already talking about how it wants to generate 1b£ from its gamblers, we can too.

There was this guy at a bar, just looking at his drink. He stays like that for half of an hour.Then, this big trouble-making truck driver steps next to him, takes the drink from the guy, and just drinksit all down. The poor man starts crying. The truck driver says,"Come on man, I was just joking. Here, I'll buy you another drink. I just can't stand to see a man cry." "No, it's not that. This day is the worst of my life. First, I fall asleep, and I go late to my office. My boss, outrageous, fires me. When I leave the building, to my car, I found out it was stolen. The police said that they can do nothing. I get a cab to return home, and when I leave it, I remember I left my wallet and credit cards there. The cab driver just drives away." "I go home, and when I get there, I find my wife in bed with the gardener.I leave home, and come to this bar. And just when I was thinking about putting an end to my life, you show up and drink my poison." guess what Happened??

The truck driver Started Crying..!
