lyntiffany: Don't know how some people analyse things is it possible for Infidels to sponsor bokoharam? So ihejirika and oritse jafor(infidels) can convince shekau to kill his own people including some Muslims? If possible then shekau' head is cemented by cow DUNG / the so called NElders.Whoever that is scheming all these plans should know that it dosen't add up at all.

Just like the U.S Armed ISIS and Bin Laden's AL Qaeda before them. Theres nothing new under the sun.

phreakabit: Sorry but I am Igbo, I We have no business in this. This is simply a classic case of the Northerners ganging up with their loyal Southwestern subordinates to play chess with the outsider. Simply observing things unfold.

GEJ, Ihejirika, Oritsejafor and co are Northerners and South Westerners?

bigheart2013: Hmmmmmmmm! Very long pause on the current Nigeria.... I wouldn't care less if not that a 'private jet, a clergy, arms deal, and large cash were mentioned in the same sentence. Am I the only one who feels I'm probably wasting my time in church these days rather than get real about making money. Looks like there's no 'clean money' after all...

You just u n shackled yourself from financial slavery.

cr8v: . The federal govt may not have told the whole truth but these jihadist know how to cover themselves that until now no one knows the sponsors of Boko and how they brought in heavy weapons into the country. At least it is not open in public circles.

Oh, we actually know how they come in. They're brought in by private jets owned by the Federal Govt but fronted by corrupt Preachers then "leased" to people with false identities that actually don't exist. Then the weapons are distributed to militias --- including those sponsored by the Fed. Govt--- then bombs are set off to divert attention.

Donmarrius: you are an example of the worst thin g that has ever happend to Nigerian education system,if at all you're educated .

If you had read that guys post wisely,you wouldn't resorted to this.

The guy wasn't asking Niger Deltans to be part of Biafra,but said,(in simple english),both should join hands to free themselves.

Let me interprete it to you further,to avoid you plunging yourself into the ocean of deep mental mess,the guy was saying,now the truth is coming out,we have seen who the real enemy(ies) are,lets 'unite',and fight them,to 'free' 'ourselves'.
Unite there,doesn't necessarily mean you joining Biafra as a country,it can be in many other fruitful ways,provided its goal,is to free ourselves.(Don't know how else to explain to you,if at this point you are still confused,quit henceforth from commenting on nairaland,and i strongly advice that you go back to primary school,primary 3 to be precise!).

But by the way,if you are a Niger Deltan,are you more Niger Deltan,than other Niger Deltans,which Igbos are part of?.

What made you think you have the termerity,to determine or speak for the whole Niger Deltans?.

Assuming your 'mental/contextual' Niger Delta,is to be collapsed into Biafra,who do you think you are,to object it?

BTW,'who' are you,in your own immediate family?.

Cry all you want, no other side in Nigeria will bandy with you to achieve that Biafran dream. Its just the truth.

luvinhubby: Trying to play the victim in a country where 95% of violent blood sheds had been perpetrated by a particular religion against the other.

Because it was usually funded and sponsored by people like GEJ, Ihejirika, Edwin Clark, Oritsejafor and co to make it seem like it was a Muslim insurgency. Henry Okah and Gen.Azzazi warned you all but you never listened.

noblezone: Biafrans and Niger Delta Republics can work together to achieve our freedoms from the Jihardists and their fellow marchants of death!

If you want it done, do it on your own. Not everyone wants to be part of your Biafra.

GeneralJ: Private jets used to smuggle cash, fugitives – FG

The Federal Government on Sunday said illegal consignments and cash in local and foreign currencies were being smuggled on daily basis in and out of the country aboard private jets.

It also said some persons that securities agencies had declared wanted were being airlifted out of the country aboard private and chartered jets.

As a result, it insisted that pilots flying such jets must declare the passenger manifest before being allowed to take off.

An aircraft manifest contains the names of all persons aboard the plane, among other things.

The Coordinating Information and Communications Manager for aviation parastatals, Mr. Yakubu Dati, told reporters in Lagos on Sunday that the order for the declaration of passenger manifest was necessary to check the abuse of the use of private and chartered jets.

He said for security reasons, especially the need to arrest those who had constituted security threats to the country, the government would not renege on its decision for pilots of private jets to file their manifests before being given Air Traffic Control clearance.

Dati said security operatives had disclosed that many wanted persons were being smuggled out of the country with private jets.

He also stated that some wanted persons were being sneaked into the country without appropriate checks as many private jets take off from private facilities at airports.

Dati spoke on the heels of the criticism that have trailed the introduction of some new policy measures for the private jet sub-sector in the country.

The government had through the National Civil Aviation Policy, 2013 unveiled two weeks ago directed pilots of private jets to file their manifests before obtaining ATC clearance.

It also said foreign registered private jets could only spend 15 days in the country, just as the policy also barred private jet owners from carrying friends and business associates.

Aviation stakeholders as well as the Action Congress of Nigeria had, however, severely criticised the policy, saying most of its provisions were not obtainable in any other part of the world.

An aviation expert and former Military Commandant, Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, Group Captain John Ojikutu, said the demand for passengers’ manifest on private aircraft could only be done by the State Security Services.

“The need for passengers’ manifest on private aircraft, if required, can only be the responsibility of the State Security Services, and in the case of private aircraft on international flight, the Nigerian Immigration Service,” Ojikutu said

But Dati insisted that what the government wanted to do was to monitor the operations of unscheduled flights as well as their manifests due to the current security situation in the country.

According to him, charter services by private jets have become a lucrative business in the country and 80 per cent of the private jets have private licences, but carry out commercial operations.

This, he said, constituted safety challenges because aircraft with private licences were not being subjected to compulsory maintenance checks as those with commercial licences were made to do by the regulatory body, the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority.

He also regretted that about 80 per cent of the 150 private jets operating in the country were registered overseas; a situation he said exempted them from paying taxes and five per cent charges to the NCAA.

Dati said, “So, when you collate what government agencies lose by the illegal operations of these aircraft, it amounts to over N25bn in a year. And I can authoritatively tell you that it is now a lucrative business that businessmen bring in aircraft to operate as private jets, while they are actually used for commercial purposes.

“So, it makes nonsense of those charter operators who follow the laid down processes and whose business has now been taken away by the illegal private operators.”

So no that terrorist, hip hop pastor, Oritsejafor has been nabbed what now....?

Ikengawo: Colonial records have Igbo as 50% of the total sum of all of southern Nigeria. If you're in Nigeria you will see it with your own eyes, people need to stop selling myths.

And how many Ibos lived outside ibo land during the colonial era?

PhockPhockMan: We're not talking about land mass here but people. Igbo can't be only 18% abeg.

Yes, Ibos are at least 98.7% of the entire population.

Sealeddeal: they dies like rats too and that should be considered as well.

You all die like rats in your shiyyt hole of a country. Your life expectancy is 53yrs old.

PointB: Muslim-Muslim ticket is a NO-NO!

Because the Ibos say so?

IHEJIRIKAisBOKO: Exactly
Let them start by 2015
Let APGA- a ibo dominated party produce a ibo presidential candidate in the 2015 election also. Must the ibos wait untill others spoon-feed them?

Ask PDP to give it to someone from Apga, after all, yall brothers.

lokito: They should give an igbo man Deputy Gov of Lagos state first. An igbo man is the last person any riffraff can just cajole, psychologically, logically and especially financially.

Why is your region like the Devil's private playground, then?

talktimi: Atiku will flog Buhari mercilessly in a free and fair party primaries devoid of mago mago

Then he'll get floored mercilessly by GEJ...

shachris: the government is shielding some bigwigs. Why must goodluck always support corruption?

Why must Goodluck be involved in terrorism?

ShehuAba: The senators, who resumed from their two-month vacation,
expressed dissatisfaction with how the war was being prosecuted

http://omojuwa.com/2014/09/boko-haram-nigerians-are-frustrated-helpless-angry-senate-asks-mark-tell-president-jonathan/

Two months vacation?! In a country at war, where unemployment is through the roof and there's no electricity?!

Roflmao Nigerians deserve the leaders they get.

Mogidi: Even though the trade seems to have originated from the military, I still think its about time someone fights for Christians.

Oritsejafor was ordained to be CAN president at this trying time of this nation. Am particularly pleased the Israelis are involved. Time to beat boko haram like Hamas.

We will never surrender to boko haram.

The Israelis are there for your cash not because of any of your crazy beliefs. If the price was right even Saudi operatives could probably be contracted. Nobody cares about what made you go nuts in the first place so long as you're paying to make it all worthwhile.

aderonila18: What I don't understand is why any group seeking to buy arms for Boko Haram would choose to lease the CAN President's private jet out of all the ones they could have leased.

Because the Govt is really the one destabilizing the country.

dre247: @funny pikin Kassim Afegbua was the media aide to IBB b4 Gov. Oshiomole took him. Still guess he works with IBB. @topic IBB was 1 time Head of State of this country after Gen. Buhari, he does have some records. Like the saying goes "in every rumor there is always an element of truth".

Sure, and it has taken him 30+ odd years to reveal this "element of truth", right?

Sibabasibaba1: Even if, for the sake of argument, we agree that Buhari was not part of the coup plotters, it is public knowledge that a receiver of stolen goods is also a thief. Besides, what it takes to be part of a coup is to be aware of the panning of the coup. When you become aware of a coup, you are supposed to report to the commander-in-chief. Buhari was well aware that a coup was in the offing-at least, his attack dogs cannot deny that- but did he report that to his C-in-C? Obasanjo was implicated in the 1995 Gwadabe coup- which the Lagos-Ibadan axis press call a phantom coup- because it was said that he had knowledge of the coup.

I'm trying to assume you're not a dummy. Which means, I'm hoping against hope that you don't know who the uber corrupt criminal Tanko Yakkassai is.

BlackTechnology: Hmmmm

What business does he has and how did he get the money

You should concentrate on improving your grammar instead of focusing on another man's pockets.

XketchDesigns: it's just intriguing how some people have stupid thinking or they are trying so hard to sound daft!

Must someone work directly for somebody or hold a political appointment or go to office every morning to earn a living?

Are you trying to tell me a man like buhari doesn't have businesses?
He is a former head of state and enjoys certain privileges.

Campaign and election business is mostly done with donated money and nor that of the aspirant, this the norm all around the world.

I just wonder, is it the poverty, poor education system, or just plain stupidly? The way Nigerians think, so irritating.

Its the poverty, poor education and plain stupidity, coupled with religious intolerance and tribal bigotry.

noblezone: Does anybody know what Buhari does for a living?
Or has he been out of "job" since the death of Abacha?

Is he a political jobber?

Recently, Naaba told us he has been our of job since when he left the offfice of the Speaker of the House of Rep, people like that should not be allowed to near the corridors of power!

Those chanting the "sai Buhari" thing, should please educate some of us on what Buhari is doing for a living!

I greet you all.

If you have a 70yr old father or Grandfather , feel free to ask him what he does for a living. Most likely, that's what Buhari also does. Only difference is, he's more important and most likely busier than whoever the 70yr old in your family whom you pose the question to is.

gebest: So how come buhari has not be able to defit pdp 3 consecutive times?

I'd like to see how youd fare in 12round Heavy Weight fight against Vitali Klitcshko

zicky: At the last presidential election, I was the only one in my family that voted Buhari n it waz because of this reasons you pointed out. I also respect a man that stand by his word, after the last election Buhari wept and told Nigerians he was not going to contest for any election again, bt like other politicians in Nigeria will tell you they are contesting because "Nigerians" beg them to do so.

That doesn't make him corrupt, inept and clueless, does it?

ochilikoko: I know that PDP is very bad but APC is worst

Based on?

lagdmark: Na waa oh my pple. no be only abia I got the same picture when I visited my city Lagos state , my guest from Europe was shocked the refuse dump and bad drainage system in our commercial capital. Which way naija?

No wonder yall hate Buhari and War Against Indiscipline.

zicky: Buhari look to me as a fanatic, I might be wrong bt I'll rather go 4 tambuwal or ameachi if given d nod

How is he a fanatic? Let's even assume he is, and that his biggest desire is to make Nigeria a Islamic Republic,how can he possibly execute his desire in a democratic setting? Even during the era of Military rule it wasn't possible, so what gives now?

Let me explain something to you: NIGERIA IS A VERY COMPLEX COUNTRY AND IT TAKES A VERY STRONG MAN TO RUN IT...at least for now, because of the strangle hold criminal elements have on it. Even if the constitution proclaims them king, no neophyte like Amaechi or Tambuwal can come around and start dictating to those who really run Nigeria. They won't allow it. And that aside, Amaechi and Tambuwal are cut from the same cloth as the owners of Nigeria,so it's going to be business as usual.

Only a man that owes no favors, like Buhari can set Nigeria on the right path. I don't think a lot of you understand how much corruption has destroyed your country. Basic amenities are luxuries in your land; that's a damn shame. Development can never come about with corruption still running around rampant. Theres a reason why someone like OBJ will impose an inept and corrupt character like Gej on Nigerians, over a man like Buhari whom he has praised for his efficiency and forthrightness. Business as usual.

Ask yourself: Who do the powerful men like IBB, Danjuma, OBJ, Nzeribe etc fear a Buhari Presidency and always work against it? Why do they always work for people like OBJ, Yar Adua, GEJ etc that always bring nothing but misery and despair to Nigeria?

Vote against Buhari if you want, but I will be here hoping you guys get it right this time and vote against corruption so your kids can get a easier life than you or your fathers did.

logica: Yeah yeah. FYI Aswad Ayinde is NOT Yoruba. He's an African American who adopted a Yoruba name. That's how ignoramuses went around talking about Nasir Jone's father (Oludara) being Nigerian.

True.

zicky: Seriously Gej has not done anything for SE, I've already made up my mind not to vote in the next election, cause I cannot vote for either Gej or Buhari

You're better off voting Buhari, at least your roads will be built and well maintained. Monies budgeted for infrastructure will be put to use and not be stolen. Simply put, rapid infrastructure development.

So, it's all up to you, do you want a easier life (because that's what Developed infrastructure will bring you), or would you rather live a hard life where you'll never experience what it means to have electricity 24hrs for 50yrs straight without even a second outbreak just because you can't get past religious and tribal bias?

You're better off voting Buhari, my man.

JEITO: . Are you American

If yes, how does your country's policy on political thieves, answer the question on why the preference for buhari over atiku?

Ok, I'll oblige you.

Buhari is upright, incorruptible and straightforward. He will get the job done and will ensure that corruption, which is Nigeria's biggest problem, is reduced to the barest minimum. So, instead of 50 people stealing money thats meant for the welfare of 170million Nigerians, that money will either be put to use immediately or saved for the future, nobody is going to buy a 12-seater private jet with stolen funds in a Buhari led Govt. Just imagine what $45billion---even $20billion--- in infrastructure would do for Nigerians... this is the same amount missing from NNPC that GEJ wishes to be swept under the carpet. Before that was the scam with his wife and Coscharis, Petroleum Subsidy scam, Pension scam, Abuja Gate scam, V.P palace renovation scam, V.P palace new building scam, First Lady office N4Billion scam.... and it goes on and on and on... GEJ is a crook that just can't stop stealing. The problem also lies in the fact that he honestly doesn't think he's doing anything wrong, thats why whenever theres an uproar at his behavior, he becomes like a little child and starts throwing tantrums through his media mouth pieces. OBJ left zero debt and almost $70Billion before he left office; GEJ managed to whittle it to almost $20billion within 2 years. Under Buhari, all these monies will be put to use building infrastructures, funding education, strengthening the Armed Forces and providing jobs for ordinary Nigerians.

None of these will happen under Atiku. Atiku is a crook.
