who is the president of nigeria today??let us start now to build nigeria and forget about the past,we can just use the efcc to find our past leaders to pay for their crimes if there is justice,and who has the powers to do that??mr gej,is he doing itno

porka: Ahhh!!!

This is treacheryyyyy!!!

Don't this guy have any older person he's looking up to assist him with his public utterances?

Have the northern and southwestern leaders urging him on seen from his own perspective on regionalism?

This is a very sad development.

Does he know that the 4billion naira 'left-over' of his state's July allocation is the total figure for the some states in those regions?

How would Gov Amaechi react when other regions start to clamour for equal share of the national resources, will he still maintain this myopic stance?

And he was even teaching this young minds the art of treachery?

This is sad! Someone must talk to this guy. It's getting out of hand.

This is not stubbornness, it isn't heroism, it's pure inexperience. Nigeria is too complex for this type of his thinking.

It was people from that region and many from the South West region that fought for the revenue derivation principle which enables Mr Amaechi to have access to 19b naira in July alone with only 6m people, while states like Lagos and Kano do not have access to half of that.

Does he know more than these people?

Why didn't they so much talk about being just Nigerian and not regions as he's saying here?

Or does he think you can on one hand be bothered about being Nigerian in terms of leadership at the centre and on the other hand being a SS or Rivers State when it comes to revenue allocation?

Both are contradictory.

What is he going to say to his friends and current admirers when they began to demand for more share of the revenue from his state? After all, we should all be equal.

Governor Amaechi, there are millions and millions of people who also think that Nigeria should just jettison these regional structure and focus on general developmental thinking.

But there are also millions and millions of people who feel otherwise. If you are doing this to your people today, what do you think people should do when they start paying you in your own coin?

14%derivation is for oil, next time read your post before you send them

Atouke: [b]Ameachi should learn from his political godfather/master odili whom he betrayed, that the Northerners that are smiling and trolling with him today will not stand by him when it counts they spurred Odili on and when it was time they dumped him. they will do same to him amaechi.

Of what gain is it to Amaechi to fight his south south brother and in law? even if you personally don't like him family decorum demands that you show him respect and get along after all every one of us have a family member we are not too warm towards.

he has extended his war fronts to include Uduaghan whom he pretended to be friends with initially, Ngozi iweala, Akpabio and jonathan all from his south south. am afraid it a lot of fronts to fight from especially when they are so close to home. Its good to have home support for any war you want to fight at least if you lose the war you have a supporting home+people to return to.

That said i like what Amaechi has done in terms of schools, and healthcare in rivers state and alos the 13,000 teachers he employed to staff the new schools. [/b]

think beyond tribe to move nigeria forward

THIS IS SIN BIBLE IS AGAINST THESE.LOL

and this kpomo is burn with tire,that produce cancer.GOD HELP US

[quote author=amade@the top]we must not play politics with issues that has to do with national development. okonjo iweala is the best thing that has happen to Nigeria in the last 20 years of Nigeria history. im talking from my position as a chartered accountant because i know her financial contributions to the growth of Nigerian economy and this cannot be over emphassize[/quote]please as a chartered accountant tell me 3things she has done right to help the poor??

Funpeter: Guess u're a statistician or someone that's knows the important of data.

my bro na comon sense

a mother who does not know the number of children she has,should not say in public that, they are doing well.im igbo sentiment apart,time to tell ourselves the bitter truth

jdbabzy: Tribalism is the bane of my fatherland. I weep for her, and all the 'sicklings' she continues to raise.

I pray that our eyes wouldn't all be blindfolded by ethnic sentiments.

The 'facts' remain that a vast majority of the citizens of our country: r jobless, do not have access to good and quality health care systems, education, water, electricity, roads, airports, or any other means of transportation, cannot afford decent meals, live on less than a dollar a day,....and d list is endless.

These are d present facts and realities we r faced with, and not what they show us on NTA network. Heck, not what the finance minister comes on air to tell us.

As long as these problems persist, I would NEVER be fooled or let myself to be blindly misguided by ethnic sentiments, even though the Ibo blood run thru my veins.

God bless Nigeria!!!

aleast somebody is thinking

skyluv2000: Okonjo Iwela is not only a co-ordinating minister or just a minister, but a flamboyant, elegant, charismatic and a prominent mother in nigeria,west Africa,Africa and World in general.she is a famous celebrity and world economic reformer.So all these local and petty propopaganda political juganuts should go and kiss the toilet sit. Confused and biased Governors. Abeg Madam Ngozi carry go jare. We ibos and southerners are solidly behind you.

the theoretical economics,a country without no data base can not implement good economic policies that can favor the poor.all na story

Iko5000: I feel you Chiboy, I'm from Anambra state and I know exactly what what you mean

rali123: Great waist...

na lesbi you come be??

Shine It: We are not using your money so back off.

the money is for ss people right??tribal politics as usual

pleep: The minimum wage is one of the worst laws in America. If you have a basic understanding of economics you would realize that a price floor (a minimum price for a product) creates a surplus in said product. This is because they are some positions that are simply not worth 10/hour.. so employers save money by not hiring people.

This is one of the chief causes of unemployment in the united states. If we had no minimum wage some people would be working for $4, 5, 6/hour, but atleast they would have jobs, not sitting at home on welfare smoking weed and producing children.

your stupid conservative views are for wicked capitalist , who think only for their pocket and not the general good.minimum wage help every society to set parametres for inflection control

Revolva: hey Ago Palace way is a mess.....infact all the street in Okota area are not tarred..with the whole beautiful houses there...flood everwhere....umm Maybe its due to the fact that that zone is dominated by igbos..

thats just what i thought, i wish we igbos can learn

vladimiros: This is why Nigerians should pay tax

what happen to the ones we are paying??

the only question to ask anambrarians is,are you happy for obi 8yearsif so vote for his appointed person,if you want change go for ngige

Muscomide: And to think that four brave policemen died trying to rescue this nincompoop from his captors? And he now calls for an amnesty? Shame on you, Ozekhome.

why the insult??have you ever been kidnapped

Ayatullah:

First and foremost I am happy a fellow human being regained his freedom, but I must quickly add that Ozekhome is a 'STUPIDO' and a Bloody Coward to be canvassing amnesty for Kidnappers. I am not too surprise though, because this is a man who will readily be the Devil's advocate after all he is Farouk Lawan Advocate. In a sane country, Kidnappers and Armed Robbers should be tied to the stake and publicly executed. May God bring sanity to Nigeria with Sane Leaders that we are presently lacking b]

he was doing his job as a layer
