simontosy: They are killing people for political reasons,as far as I know Boko Haram of mohammed Yusuf is gone

alaoeri: Narrow escape, he maynot be lucky next time. Guess northern leaders are targets now maybe they 'll wake up from their slumber.

Beaf: That is exactly how it should be.
We are now a civilised country. If you want the Ogoni's back, then convince them about what you can contribute to them feeling any belonging.
All Nigeria wants is their oil while saying, "phuck those minority people."

Perhaps, the rest of the SE/SS will begin reacting more strongly.

akereconfi: SITUATION REPORT.....yesterday was declared a HOLIDAY market wasn't opened. Crowds took the street of d capaital of Ogoni..BORI celebrating. U need to see the harmony. Long Live Ogoni.....in memory of Ken Beeson Saro Wiwa.

gboss4sure: Long live ogoni land, long live Biafra nigeria. Keeping the dream alive and real is a task that must be done not keeping nigeria one

bayooooooo: lol. What a joke!

CHESSBOARD: He is a thief just like his commissioners

jmaine: Am sure folks here are aware that Iweala categorically said that her 56% budget implementation rating was based on released funds and not the entire budget . . . .

While the senate decided to marshall their arguement based on the entire budget

As far as am concerned[b] Both parties are correct[/b], but the Senate erred by saying Iweala declaration of 56% is wrong cos the yard stick she deplored to arrive at her conclusion was concise and very clear to all who will be truthful and without mischief for once . . .

D-Explorer:
Dunce will always shout frontpage on any news regarding GEJ. LOL. I think we all don't need to be educated to know the difference between family interest and official duties. Do we?

ubandire: If not to attract cheap publicity and sympathy this article's headline would have been 'Mariam Ali to stand surety for suspected subsidy fraud Suspect'.I wonder how people have sworn to demonise this Gej led govt,if not for hatred,malice and blind pessimism,what in the world is wrong with an adult eligible Nigerian Standing surety for an 'accused'person?

Please if u don't know u should seek knowledge u musn't display ur ignorance,however if u must know Maryam Ali's action is not unconstitutional.

kutchs: Even those who try to ‘correct‘ them are no better. If the woman has broken any law, I demand that you take her to court or keep shut.

erniok: What's the fuss all about and why the blatant display of hypocrisy. So because she's an aide to the president, she can't surety an accused anymore regardless of who the person is to her? Smh.

kutchs: What does it mean to surety someone? The answer is to guarantee that someone will do something. Has she broken any law or contravened any moral code by guaranteeing that her suretee will appear anytime the courts needs him? I find it difficult to undestand why we are vexed. She will only become criminal when she fails to produce her suretee at any appointed day. You guys should give it a rest.

Elueme: Mrs Ali is an adult and Nigerian like you and i whose child and an associate is standing trial.. She's at liberty to stand as surety for her son and friend just as a true mother will do for her son.. Is that worth a news or criticism? What points are you guys making? Are you from this planet? You pigs!. Why call PDP... Is Wale Tinubu a relative of Ahmed Tinubu your pay master not in this subsidy scam? Abi Tinubu no get shares for Oando?
To the unbiased Nigerians viewing or commenting on this thread, let's see this fuel subsidy imbroglio beyond partisanship as these low brains are trying to mislead this forum to believe but rather a national course for the soul of our dear country..

Super1759: is that all.so what are you gonna do about it

D-Explorer:
It's amazing. When it comes to GEJ their eye balls start gaining muscles.

kutchs: And what if? Has she violated any provision of the constitution by so doing? In ur usual haste to condemn, you failed to remember the accused stands innocent until convincted. In as much as we want all of them to pay for their sins, we must respect their right to bail by whoever pleases and meets the bail conditions.

ifihearam: What is wrong for her to stand surety for her son? Does that make her a culprit? They are suspects and not condemned criminals until the court discharges other wise there is nothig wrong in her actions. Why bringing GEJ into the matter now??was he the one who sent her. Abegii

lanre_front: Our leaders have completely lost their sense of shame. And many followers following the leaders, like the several we have here on Nairaland have lost their power of correct and proper reasoning. Some because of poverty and some because of greed. By large, according to the Ghanian Professor who called GEJ a joke after his last NTA Media Chat, "Nigerians are a phycologically conquered people".

niyitogun: We are investigating the issue and I assure you the perpetrators will be brought to book *brings out tissue n cries in front of tv cameras*

Enlightened1: Well, I really don't know what to say. But this is getting out of hand. The onus is on the Northern leaders to collectively put an end to the Boko Haram menace in the North. If they choose to ignore the threat, and support their Boko Haram brothers, so be it. They can keep killing, bombing and annihilating themselves, as long as they don't attack Christians. Before now I use to to think there was some political undertone to this Islamic sect. But I don't know what to think or believe anymore.

I seriously hope someday all this problems will come to pass. No condition is permanent!!

passionate88: Yet they keep saying it's political.... maybe it's an islamic political movement

Acidosis: This is a bad record. .I tell you.

Nigerians, Happiest people on earth but on the internet, they are like monsters. .
silly and cowardly lazy citizen who cant rule a zoo. .yet they condemn everything the president and pastors does. .

betrani: English to me shouldn't b a prerequisite! If u can deliver the job, fine! If u can go with german, spanish, dutch, chinese, swahili, etc and can get quality service rendered then to hell with who ever it is! D chinese that execute most jobs around today, are they so good in english? I agree with u 100%

knockturnal: Na wah o nairalanders! una bad mouth o. evry post made is now seen as an opportunity for every Tom, D*ick and Harry to express thier derogatary skills. When u climb the mountain and shout that Nigeria's education system is in the gutters, where did u do your own studying...on Mars? The assesment made by the poster is in no way a yardstick for measuring our education system. All it shows is that he conducted a test for dumb as*s* candidates. Am quite new to nairaland and i can deduce from comments i have read on various topics that our educational system has successfully produced bright, articulate and creative products which can hold thier own in any area where they are put to test. ITS NOT THE SYSTEM, ITS THE MATERIAL. For God's sake we have all heard of GIGO!(garbage in, garbage out.). A dumb student is a dumb student, in Nigeria, China, USA, UK even on Phukin Pluto! I went to a primary school where my class teacher would send me to sell soap and other product to her colleagues in nearby schools from 8am till school closes atleast thrice a week which invariably meant that i missed all that was taught for that day, but am still the brightest bulb in any room i enter.i graduted with a 4.37 CGPA. While my peer who went to a private daycare, KG, nursery, primary, secondary school brought his courseforms for me to fill where he had already indicated his course of study as 'FARMACE'(pharmacy). Its not the system for God's sake. Its YOU!

obo_man: If I'm in a position to interview candidates, creativity and problem-solving skills would be what I will be looking for, rather than their ability to spell.


Problem-solving skills make businesses thrive, creativity takes businesses to the next level.

Checking candidates' mastery of words is sometimes irrelevant in businesses and companies.

werepeLeri: You support someone, I support someone, but why do you see my support for GEJ as an offence? Why does it bother you? Why do you cry and sob and call people who support GEJ names? It beats me how a sane person will see people's support for GEJ as an offence. Why? Sometimes I just laugh it off as a product of a deranged soul. Why do you think like a lizard like that?

jaybee: But remember IBB made the most positive impact and his legacies are all around for everyone to enjoy, see, touch, feel, caress and ruminate over. pls my brother/sister just take leave of your mental laziness, do a little research on the leaders/leadership on nigeria, in terms of policy, initiative, courage, influence, inclusion, performance, action, impact, character, professionalism, patriotism, and above all, knowledge of when to let go.

back to IBB's address: recall that IBB established the National Defence College (NDC) Abuja. that strategic vision of of his is one of the legacies being celebrated at twenty. credit must be given to him for that. i guess its an honour to him, and also to the course participants to drag him out of his comfort for this lecture. not all leave to see what they establish flourish like this one. this is what he thought more than twenty years ago. besides, may i ask: since the establishment of the National war college (now National Defense College) tell me one single spectacular thing that has happened in Nigeria armed forces at that level.

when you attempt to criticize, please do so in such a way that you don't betray the abysmal level of your ignorance, just like you've just done now. information on all these socalled leaders, thieves conmen, rogues, etc abound in the literature. just a little research on any of them will avail you some facts on them. your reliance on all political cliches and sectional jingles will not help you.

Mahatma Ghandi: This is one of africa's problems,how can an institution bring a one time military dictator with lots of moral questions on his character to give a lecture,this is why other continents don't take africa seriously,IBB giving them a lecture is an endorsement on all IBB did as military head of state and also a vote of confidence on his person,until we learn as a nation to distance ourselves from criminality and criminal behaviours we will continue to get it wrong.

dasparrow: @Post

This is why it has become difficult to track down boko haram because we have a few fellow Nigerians who shield them. If some of our fellow compatriots continue shielding boko haram members, we may not have a country by 2015. Everyone should remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities to the appropriate authorities.


PS: I will be back on this thread to make sure my post did not grow wings and fly away into oblivion since lately a few of my posts have been mysteriously disappearing. Peace, out!

2rut: Gov Fashola was wrong to arrest a senior Army officer. A disgrace to entire arm forces and citizens of Nigeria. He should have used more civilized approach colonel in Nigeria army represents entire nation while Gov Fashola represents entire Lagos state. Anyway, Gov fashola is lucky; a flag officer will command his aides de camp to double up fashola

2rut: To arrest a senior army officer is a big slap on Nigeria arm forces.Gov fashola is not a police officer.he should take note and querry the officer on duty. Pls remember fela vs soldiers (Zombie na zombie all over the world).Fashola take note you may not survive the war?

Sisi_Kill: Oh just look at them!!

Billyonaire: Orji, in as much as I dont like Tinubu, can you tell us what you have done with the monthly allocation you receive in the name of Abia State ? Stop talking trash, ACN governors in Lagos and Edo State are known to develop states during first term and loot during second term, but you loot all the way.

blacksta: how old is this picture - 1st question ?
