I like FFK, he is smart and just give him the right goodies, he will sing your praise. He is neither here nor there. No enemy, no friend, na all weather.

Sincerely, a fine and rich dude like FFK will always be a ladies man, that is why the yellow-pawpaw gum the guy like araldite tongue.

It is only in Nigeria that all you need do is just be a polithiefcian, have friends in high places then you can loot every treasury on sight, come out of court unscathed, celebrate with friends, take selfies with babes and get national honour. It is only in Nigeria!!!

Uhrobo laugh no be here o.
But on a more serious note all African artiste have to stand up against this.

abeniagbon:
Lash on you. Do you an idea on how BET runs it. Everyone has a motives of expression. If wizkid didn't like what he seen in the last. I guess he has every right to focus on some important things. Instead of the fvck shows. Mind you he just sign a deal worth of $600k to gloworld ng. So thus that stop him for his achievement. Find some thing to do bro.

jiggaz:
I like Wizkid for saying the truth and dis is the same reason Yemi Alade & Fuse ODG did not attend and they made it known to BET as well.

Now for all u ignorant Nairalanders attacking Wizkid for dis tweet, lemme tell u guys what u don't know. I dont see why BET should be discriminating against African Artistes in an award show like dis, shebi na black people we be?.

The gate keepers of the American music knows dat if they give African artistes a chance, they might steal their market in America. That's why they treat African artistes like second class citizens or pretend dat they don't know dat we got a vibrant music industry in Africa. African artistes need to wake up!! Come on, we don't need validation from the West to know dat we are good!!! Africa is a continent of over 800 million people!!! Who needs America They can keep their yeye backstage award. An award show dat most American A-List artiste did not even attend sef. 50 Cent was even blasting dem on an instagram video. Lets forget about dem. The BEST AFRICAN ACT AWARD sef no dey do anything for the artiste career sef. Na only title. The African market is soo huge and has sooo many potential, let our artistes explore dem, see how PSquare dem are breaking ground in North Africa.

I have soo many things to say about the American music industry and African American themselves. To start with, these Black Americans have a condescending attitude towards Africans even if u were born in the states. Infact, lemme leave it here, Akatas and their wahala too much.

So i support Wizkid, Yemi Alade & Fuse ODG for not attending, we are not fools. Dat was how Grammy Awards were giving Black Hiphop acts their awards backstage back in the day and they fought against it. Now they are coming to do it to their fellow Blacks too?? Cos we are Africans To hell with Dem!!! I support you Wizkid!!!

You make me want to puke ,your claim is baseless as well as ridiculous.You must be the main heir of the Saraki dynasty then ,Oloshi

Gbemi Saraki Is My Father’s ‘true’ Political Successor –laolu SARAKI - Old News - Politics - Nairaland

For the second time in one year, Laolu Saraki, the last of the Saraki siblings has publicly declared that his sister and former Senator, Sen Gbemsiola Saraki, is his father’s ‘true’ political successor.
Laolu, who recently arrived in Lagos after a brief holiday in Madrid, Spain, made this disclosure on his twitter handle, @lmSaraki.
Laolu, who was apparently reacting to the outcome of the PDP congresses, which saw his sisters’ close allies clinch juicy positions in the party, expressed his happiness over the development, describing it as a ‘nice one’ that ‘daddy will be proud’ of.
Laolu therefore said that his dad, Dr. Olusola Saraki, who was also the crowned Waziri of Ilorin, had always said that Sen. Gbemi is his ‘true political successor’ in his lifetime.
Parts of the tweet read thus: “Nice one yesterday Gbemi! Daddy will be proud. As he often said “You are the true political successor.”
E-Kwara recalls that Laolu had made similar disclosures shortly after the death of his father last year. When he was asked by a national newspaper about the fate of the Saraki Political Dynasty after the demise of his dad, he simply said that the name ‘Saraki’ was not hereditary but an exclusive reserve of his father’s relationship with the people of the state.
That statement was seen by analysts as a direct reference to an erstwhile Governor of the state and Laolu brother, Dr. Bukola Saraki’s claim to be the heir apparent of the late strongman of Ilorin politics.
This latest salvo, which is coming from no less a person than Laolu, one of late Saraki’s beloved, is seen by many as another missile against Dr. Bukola Saraki.
One of such analysts, Dr. Salman Mohammed, the National Coordinator of Enough is Enough Movement (EEM), an NGO, said in a chat with E-Kwara.com that the statement ‘is pregnant with a lot of meaning.’
In his words, Dr. Mohammed said that there is no better source to know the real thinking and position of late Abubakar Saraki on his true successor except either Laolu or Mrs. Tope Edun, another of Saraki siblings, who is based in Lagos.
He said although the most authentic would have been their mother, Mrs Florence Saraki, but the fact that she is media shy, or would not be seen as depeaning the crisis of confidence within the Saraki family, is the reason why the public is being deprived of the true position of the late Dr. Saraki.
“Some of us know that Bukola Saraki has all along being lying against the dead. His dubious claim to be Baba (Dr. Saraki)’s heir is just a fluke that is fast crumbling. Thank God it is coming from within the family itself.” He said.

Onegai:
@ideylaff you sound like my mama, who will buy herself Business or First class and purchase Economy for her children and tell us "I'm training you" as excuse.

That woman

Even when I said "I'm too old to be trained" her reply was "I don't want to spoil the special moment you finally enter it for your husband"

And sometimes she brings plane food with her. I guess I should go and tell her to stop being uncultured and unsophisticated before she buy a her next plane ticket..

rubyradiance:
It's so sad that after gathering so much momentum,they are crashing just at the point of take off, I wish they can pass a law that a politician can only decamp once in 10 years,

On a good note Saraki should learn how to respect party's decision at times because had he contested under PDP for that senatorial seat he would have lost & wouldn't be calling bluffs at this point

Built2last:
Politics and interest is like rice and beans.

APC underestimated Saraki. He has a political clout that only the politically naive will undermine.

a man who fought his father to a standstill, took over his fathers followers and and made the father call for peace.

He was a governor for 8th years same time with Tinubu, later became a senator, at a time had the plan to run for presidency in 2011. Tinubu certainly knows he wont be able to push Saraki arround or instruct him.

such a man is who APC takes for granted.

APC will split into two because the interests are weigh too many.

what we are seeing now is scene one episode one of twenty four.

Saraki has aligned with some powerful northern elements and thats a safe heaven for him.

for those of you who are naive in politics and say he has committed political suicide. watch how powerful Saraki becomes in coming days, weeks and months.

He has the money, the connections, the power, the intelligence. Only nairalanders and laymen think otherwise.

APC has one option, beg saraki and accept him and his teaming loyalists or expel him from APC which will mean doom for APC.

Antoinne:
It's surprising to hear this. I guess your thoughts and actions aren't so far from the generality of the many unrefined Nigerians, upper class you may be.

Antoinne:
Firstly, it's just so well in the habit of wasteful people to overplan and have excess food at parties. Next time, try to plan more appropriately.
Having said that, excess food at parties should be processed and served to dogs, fishes and other animals. They'd thank you for doing that. Why in the world would you want to 'pack' food for guests to take home? Don't they survive already without your food?

That it's in the take-away pack shouldn't encourage taking it away. That's uncultured. Would you take away food from KLM or Turkish airlines planes? I guess you wouldn't. And not because they don't serve in take-away packs, but merely because they don't encourage it. Would you then, for the desire to compulsorily take something away, enter a KLM flight with your personal cooler and then take away their airplane food? Of course not!

So, please, eat in the aircraft or trash it. If you don't feel hungry there and then, politely decline the food, request water and eat a comfortable dish at the hotel.

u actually don't know politics... U think all dose apc senators supporting him are doing it willingly... He has d dirty secrets of most of dem. U actually don't know how cunning he is

manny4life:
So a U.S. President inviting another president, yet a Nigerian president is an achievement? I pity my fellow Nigerians because Nigeria through Buhari has become a puppet of the U.S., I hope you'll say the same thing when it hits the fan.

dealerx:
I want the incumbent president to be watchful of this so called western world, there interest in nig is getting suspicious

The FG revenue is 70% dependent on oil proceeds.


Obama blocked the US from importing oil from us, coupled with the oil glut occasioned by Saudi Arabia pumping too much into the market and a significant drop in the price of crude, how in God's name will we not be broke?

Every logical solution that was proposed by Ngozi was vehemently opposed by your governors even the removal of fuel subsidy which you guys are not complaining of any more since your It is your Buhari in office now.


I don't really have the energy for nairaland any more because I feel there is no need arguing with illiterates.


Please try and update yourself of facts rather than regurgitating cheap lies from Liar Mohammed



[size=18pt]all this talk about FG being broke is only to pave way for Buhari taking a juicy IMF loan which will be in dollars and is meant to put us in bondage to JP Morgan and Co for the next 40yrs


The change they promised was to steer us back to the dollar which GEJ was set to dump


This is why Obama wanted him out to the point of loaning Buhari his personal campaign manager and brazenly opposing our fight against the Bokos.


Already Sanusi has been appointed into the board of the US based Financial giant Blackstone who are to invest $5bn in our Energy market [/size]

major466:
When Saraki double crossed from PDP to APC, he became trustworthy, was celebrated by the Progressives as a champion. Again when he double crossed APC to become Senate President, he became a traitor. Does that makes sence Once a traitor always a traitor.
Politics is a game of interest. No permanent friends but permanent interest. APC brought this on themselves when they caused defections of all kinds of charaters into their fold just to win elections. Now that they have won, its time they face off with the characters they brought into their party.

Wizkid drops MTN for GLO, to earn N120m
After two years of aligning with the South African telco, Wizkid has chosen not to renew his contract.

Xenophobia people should only sign their artist

Take heart my dear.

Things happen for a reason.

He just wasnt the one for u.

Is the crook also entitled to a Presidential Jet?! I don't get this. Buhari should sell them out in time!

Rilwayne001:
Even though I am ardent supporter of APC, and at the same time an indegene of Ilorin; the truth is I don't like this man one bit. His 8years of running the affairs of Kwara state have yielded NO tangible result.

I campaigned against his pet (the current gorvernor of Kwara state - Abdulfatai Ahmed) in the 2011 election, but our people are not ready for the truth, all the want is money.

Lord have mercy on Kwarans.

YabaLeftist:
Part of the cabal maintaining a stranglehold on Naija. He was there to mount pressure on GEJ to accept the rigged election results. Always perambulating all over the place. Old man wey don suppose retire.

All hail the Int'l peacemaker, Gen. Abdulsalam.
This man is the hero of our democracy and, not a certain drunkard and a dullard from Otuoke being tipped for the 'appellation' by the dullard-slaves aka TANoids on this forum.

The BPE opened the bids for 11 distribution companies
The Integrated Energy Distribution & Marketing Limited, believed to be owned by former Head of State, Abdusalam Abubakar, has been declared the preferred bidder for four distribution companies (DISCOs).
The company won bids for the Yola Distribution Company, Ibadan Distribution Company, Eko Distribution Company, and Ikeja Distribution Company.
The Bureau of Public Enterprises, BPE, Tuesday, organised the formal commercial bids opening for 11 distribution companies.
Integrated defeated Honeywell Energy Resources International Limited, owned by Oba Otudeko; and Oando Consortium, headed by, Wale Tinubu, to win the bid for Eko DISCO.

doctokwus:
Was anybody expecting anything positive from Saraki?I laff!
This is a man that ruled kwara state for 8years and all that can be accredited to him is an agricultural scam where he claimed to have got south Africans to start large scale farming in kwara that has ended up leading to nothing; and a bogus kwara football academy that has not even produced a single footballer for our U-17 side.
Saraki is all about power,the way he gets it doesn't matter and whatever he does with it definitely doesn't include citizen welfare or what is best for the Nigerian state.
The man shouldnt have been allowed to sit on that senate throne.
