Stop posting this fake news everywhere.
This is the third time you will post this.

mariahAngel:
Nigerian politicians have succeeded in making Nigerians a paranoid and disrespectful lots.
They now think every organization is as dishonest as INEC, and would steal what belongs to them.
We will heal.

What an irresponsible statement.
Did the politicians also help you type this message?
SMH

Emma513:
SO WHY DO YOU ATTACK THE SERVANT AND LEAVE THE MASTER.

Because Buhari is not a "master".
Any keen observer will realise that all Buhari's appointees act with impunity
and speak in his name in a conflicting manner.

The only conclusion is that Buhari is not in charge but an easily manipulated figurehead.

mightyhaze:
Jeez.. buhari does not know his left from Right.. but u fought tooth n nails to re install him .. He's no longer the best thing since kilishi..

This has got to be a new level of agbadority

Try to use your brain for once.
Not everybody who disagrees with you is a sycophantic pleb who treat
certain politicians like a god.

Emma513:
SO YOU KNOW THAT BUHARI DID NOT HIS LEFT AND RIGHT. BUT YOU HAVE BEEN DEFENDING HIM FOR 8 YEARS. YOU ARE ST*PID

TheOgaBoss:
buhari does not know his right from his left but u fools were totally confident of handing the country to him since 2015, u lot were screaming Sai baba at the top of ur useless vocal cords when his deficiencies were pointed out.

Imbe ciles.
I am not one of you dumb goons who defend politicians whoever they are.
I either agree with a policy or disagree with it.
No exceptions.

MasterJayJay:
The foolish cowards will leave Buhari, the main architect of the whole thing. Na when they hear Emefiele that they will start barking.


You have to be a fool to praise Buhari and condemn Emefiele.

I don't see anyone praising Buhari here.
But I see some greater fools blaming Buhari who does not know his right from left
and is not aware of his surroundings for a monetary policy fiasco.

sonature1:
This is good. However, the federal government should also address the issues of the ports of Niger Delta if they really want to reduce the population of Lagos State. You cannot make a few places viable and expect them not be overcrowded.

Lekki seaport is a PPP enterprise with Lagos state government having some stake.
What you should do is call on your governor and not FG.

Why lying brazenly just to remain in the news.
The man you are accusing is alive and can speak for himself.

SMH.

NaijaCowFarm:
I tell you. Nigerians like to celebrate frivilolities. Other climes are celebrating scientific breakthroughs, we are here celebrating soups that our great grand parents developed.

That was how we built the world biggest flag and longest dance. We value valueless things, while the rest of the world is making the world a better place, inventing technology that is reshaping the world.

Why are you this bitter?
Which climes are celebrating scientific breakthroughs?
I supposed you have never left your village that is why you
assume scientist outside of Nigeria some super celebrities and demigods.

Sorry to disappoint you. "Frivolities" celebrities dominate every media space
in the countries you imagined to be perfect.

Biodun556:
Jonathan should have looked for alternative as Buhari did

I said 'US embargo was partly responsible'

While the bulk of the blame goes to Jonathan who could not think outside the box and find reliable alternative

Buhari bought super tucano from US. thanks to trump

He bought 24 M346 fighter jets from Italy ( on order to arrive this year)

He bought like 20 warships from different countries

3 J17 fighter jets from Pakistan

Close to 20 helicopters from Russia

UAV from China and Turkey

And many more

This is more reasonable than Jonathan that spent 2 billion dollars meant for ammunition on election because of US embargo

Jonathan is indeed a buffoons

There is nothing outside the box about buying arms from Russia, even ordinary African warlord
does it. But when you need an advantage in the battlefield, real arms are not sweets that you picked on
shelves on demand. They take time.
In fact, most of weapons and equipment delivered at the beginning of Buhari's administration were ordered by GEJ
despite what Lai Muhammed claimed.

BTW, Buhari didn't have Obama gunning for his head neither did he have a desperate gang
of traitors looking to sabotage the military.
I mean the west who many of you are now campaigning against treated Buhari like some
sort of royalty at the beginning of his administration having bought into his "integrity" lies.

Again, you should stop mentioning European countries as alternatives to sourcing for serious gadgets,
when the US bark, they back down.

Either you exhibit bravery by suggesting Russia or you stick to the second rate Pakistan and Turkey.

DMerciful:
There are two conflicting court orders

There are no conflicting court orders.
Only one.
The kangaroo judgment of another high court cannot vacate the judgement of the first hight court.
Only a higher court can say otherwise.

Biodun556:
Nigeria worst security challenge under Jonathan was only second to Nigeria civil war partly due to US arm embargo. Thanks to Donald Trump that relieved Nigeria.

Since when did arm embargo become a problem?

Aren't you one of those who celebrated the arms embargo?
I mean all your favourite APC governors and admins personally went to the US to meet with Jonh Kerry.
They requested that the embargo should be further tightened against Nigeria just because they wanted to win an election.
They claimed the "Jonathanian army" is deliberately killing civilians.

When the desperate GEJ went for South Africa black market deal.
South Africa seized Nigerian bought weapon on the instructions of the US
via intelligence leakage from the same goon who now claim to be patriot.
You guys celebrated the seizure and labelled Oritsejafor a gun runner for lending his jet for the purchase.


I see that you didn't list Russia as an alternative as you don't want to put your principal in serious problem.

FYI, only Turkey and Pakistan are partially free of US influence.
And Nigeria have been buying from Pakistan while Turkey is not a serious jet supplier.

As for the other countries, just hope another foolish set of people don't start writing treasonous letters for political gain. All the US need to do to enforce another embargo is to raise another set of human rights allegations and those countries will fall in line.

Fake story.
It is not only 6 years but 60 years.

Shettima is wrong.
We have all agreed that the only thing that matters is competence.

WriteerNig:
So France is not a democracy? Lmaoo

Some of you worship the west so much you can literally eat their shit.

BLACK SLAVE!

I never knew Russia was black.
What a delusional mind.

Coolgent:
Stop embarrassing yourself...
Even states with Shari'a courts doesn't have the right to prosecute bandits.

But they have the rights to prosecute blasphemers?

As one of the kid roaming this forum, I will forgive your ignorance.

Foolish man.
How far has Sharia been able to deal with banditry, kidnapping and various financial crimes
perpetrated in the so-called Sharia states?

Mrtaye:
Ok so they can gag people

NBC is in charge of media and broadcast stations.
I don't understand where "people" comes in.

You haven't been gagged have you?

Fake news.

Racoon:
All these shenanigans is to stop free speech and gag the media. All the NBC needs to do is to sue erring media Houses to court as it is not a court of law itself. Tyrannical regime.

You suggestion is so smart!

Of course, they should sue erring stations to court for a case and appeals that could take more than a year.
While the suit is ongoing the station is free to do whatever it wants as the matter is already in court.
After the case has been settled, the station can reoffend multiple times again knowing that the NBC
is toothless and can't do anything until another year round of legal battles.

I suggest you learn more about the need for and the operations of a regulatory body.

BluntCrazeMan:
..



NOW...
The main controversy here is that..
The EFCC themselves are not so pure in their own dealings either.
Some of their officials collaborate with their suspects by striking some financial deals, so that their cases can be dropped.

Your comment is irrelevant to the topic.
The question is does EFCC has the right to investigate government accounts and the answer is yes.

fergie001:
You see why I brought in the emotional 'thingy' here?

Where in the world have you seen a President fold his hands and tell them to pick whomever they want? Where?

Now you are getting angry. the unemotional one.

I see you have stopped using your poorly crafted US example and have generalised
to the nebulous "world".
Now let me borrow from your playbook.
Where in the democratic world does the president handpick senate and house leaders?
Where in the democratic world do house leadership hopefuls run around the president like house boys
looking for stipends?

Ihateheadslamer:
Meanwhile, no Nigeria politician will ever see any reason to resign from post

How does a private citizen resigning from his post has anything to do with a Nigerian politician?

If this isn't fake news, Elon can only step down because Twitter is losing money
and not due to some childish votes.

Nazgul:
A woman of that age should have grown up children who should be able to protect her from all those village men and their useless traditions.

If she do have grown up kids, all I can say is shame on them. No creature dead or alive can force my mom to drink water used to wash a corpse, whoever tries it would end up as a corpse.

You have no idea how the village network operate.

I can't see any hit back in SA's comment.

The arm shipment is likely to have been a black market deal unsanctioned by the SA government
since Ramaphosa himself appeared surprised at the allegation.

SA will be foolish to take on the US by arming Russia when China with far bigger economy and military have
refused to arm Russia for strategic reasons.

fergie001:
It is not absurd.
We all knew who they were rooting for even before they won their elections.


How are they known?
That is because they were first leader of the Caucus.

Let's not pretend about these things abeg.
How do they become leader of the Caucus?

Just recently in the US lower house, a McCarthy was not made Speaker at first hand, the first in US history why?
This is because some Republican members wanted a commitment from him and decided to abstain, he had to concur to the agreement before they backed him after at least the seventh time of calling for voting or so.

Let's not get emotional, it's simply Party Politics. I believe our problem here is the character of the Candidates, tell me just one name better than the other there.

I don't know why you guys can't argue without throwing the world "emotional" around
as if it makes your argument superior.
Just because someone argues against you does not make them emotional unless that is the crux of their argument.

Now back to your response.
Rather than bring examples of US presidents installing stooges as speaker and senate leader.
You actually brought a counter example.
Are you saying that the action of some republican members of the house who
work against Mccarthy the same thing as a president installing his favorite speaker?
Isn't that an example of how it should be, that the house sort themselves out as opposed
to manipulative external influence?
Even Trump as disruptive as he his, did not try to install an acolyte as either speaker or senate leader.
The obvious candidates emerged as expected.

BTW, rooting for a candidate does not constitute imposition.

Coming to our current example. Akpabio would never win the SP seat based on his own recognition
without Tinubu's intervention no matter how much he is prepared to spend.
Akpabio will be 100% loyal stooge because he knows who made him.

Femmyfamous4u:
It is not saturated yet. We have millions tons of plastic waste daily in the country. The FG can encourage the private sector with a huge investment.

In order word, you want to become another parasitic entity eating into our meagre resources.
Are you sure you even know the difference between the private sector and the government?

fergie001:
Don't let anybody lie to you. Even in SUG politics, once a President is elected even before swearing-in, his number one focus is who becomes Speaker of the SRC.

If you become President, you will toe this path because you want balance and not someone breathing down your neck. Even in the US and Democracy all over, that has been the pattern.

The second part of your statement is false.
No advanced democracy would you find a president enforcing a speaker or senate candidate.
It is absurd to say the least.

In fact in the US you mentioned, the speaker and senate leader is already known before
the presidential primary is conducted based on simple majority projections and past senior positions.

The compensation which includes houses in Lagos and Abuja in choice areas and six cars every three years

What other kind of job offers such retirement package for a 4 to 8 year stint?
Greedy criminals.

gidgiddy:
Except that in the case of Nnamdi Kanu, not only have the courts released him, they also awarded him billions

Those are kangaroo judgement of lower courts.
Wake me up when the highest court agrees with such verdict.
There is absolutely no part of Nigerian law that make it illegal to
transport criminal suspect from foreign countries however the
government sees fit.

We are even talking about a fugitive who jumped bail here and not some first time offender.
The fact that Malami is incompetent doesn't make Kanu's case weak.
I just hope there is a political solution because any decent AGF will get him locked
up for a long time even without touching the main charges.
