They look happy , I can only wish them well.

My advise simple, BRACE UP FOR YOUR NEMESIS.

I dont under stand these republicans, the only offence Obama has commited is that he has being a faxther xmas or Food stamp president. But how can anyone compare that to the same people who made false claims about another country having Weapons of Mass Destruction , spent trillions of dollars on war, sacrificed lives of over 4000 americans. Obama used Libya to teach them how to achieve the same objective they set out to achieve Iraq.

Neither OAU nor Yaba can give you what it takes to be at par with guys in Silicon Valley or Bangalore, due to decadence in our educational system,we all know this. However, you can compete with anyone in the world with your personal developmental effort to become a world class IT professional. From the tone of your comment, there are some financial constraints so it will be suicidal for you to go for HND because you would have automatically screened yourself out of the very best IT jobs in town.It is better you endure whatever difficulty you may face for the next 4 years at Ife instead of the frustrations of HND discrimination. Please look for people that can help you convince your parents to allow you go to Ife.

They dont seem to know OBJ so well, the fact that you have the man within firing range does not mean you can hit him !.

I keep hearing that several Boko Haram members have been arrested, I hardly hear of anyone being jailed or executed . I guess the same scholars always plead with government too.

I will restrain from insulting a man of God wether fake or genuine, but anytime pastor bakare calls for a rally I will follow him. This country needs leaders other than the existing corrupt lot.

And didn't SW voted massively for GEJ despite being the home-base of an opposition party?

@Nashville I agree with you that we are not facing the real enemy. Just that I find it hard to standby watch while someone is peddling lies as if it is the truth.

@Changes. It is not in my nature to use abusive words to drive home my point. But what we need is a Nigeria that is hospitable to everyone so we should not support anything to the contrary. Real patriots should rise up and condemn this distasteful policy. Ben Akabueze have been a pivotal member of Fashola's administartion for the second tenure running, so let call a spade a spade and not a spoon used in the garden,

@ch@nges-I try to avoid tribal comments at all cost, but nepotism from that region is no longer allowable. An eastern state sent civil servants from other states parking. We have always protested against fuel prices in Nigeria and south-west have always been at the forefront, even when one of their own was at helms of the affair for 8 years. But GEJ increased price people in the east and SS not deem it necessary to protest. In 1966 coup, major Nzeogwo and co set out to clean the polity, and PM and all premiers were to die. Ahmodu Bello,Tafawa Balewa ,Akintola were brutally murdered, for inexplicable reasons Zik was spared. Go and find out if non-ibos are allowed to own shops inside onitsha market before you start opening your mouth to talk.

It is a known fact that the administration of GEJ is the most criticized in Nigerian history,thanks to facebook,twitter,Nairaland e.t.c. However, it is being preached in some quarters in christiandom that leaders should only be prayed for and never to be criticized.In fact, accusations have been leveled aginst revered christian leaders for keeping mum over the state of the nation in recent time. Therefore we need biblical scholars on NL to give us bible backed insight on the matter.secondly, we also need historians to shows how major struggles were won, maybe by prayers, negotiation, war or civil actions.

No wahala,They should be ready to receive all ibo traders in Alaba,Idumota,Balogun and other markets in non-ibo states back home.

I believe things are now changing and we can now build on occupy Nigeria protests.

I support this motion 100%, if it is the same officers we see in stations everyday that have been profiled to become IG one day, then the future is bleak. I have always thought along this line too, just don't know if the exisiting laws permit it.

Dem go stil use the ship escort stolen crude oil to another vessle waiting on the high sea.

We are in urgent need of fairly used mazda 626 car, please contact me if you have anyone for sale.

Very soon there will be a black-book for all these people and volunteer hitmen will start going after them,

The Suspension is of no effect, the sponsors of the CP would made ready a large sum of mney for him as compensation. proceeds from oil subsidy fraud.

NNPC do not document product importation on the orders of the FMOF, subsidy paid on daily PMS discharge of 59m litres but local consumption is estimated to be 34m of PMS per day(24m ltrs missing per day), vandals are always destroying pipelines carrying crude oil to refineries and refined products from refineries,

and the solution to all these is to punish the people of Nigeria, while the caballonaires are bagging national honours.

Oleeeeeeeeeee, Oyiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii, Barawoooooooooo

On National Conference, I agree with him. But I am getting irrittated by this attempt by some element in South South to blackmail everybody with this oil. Nigeria made progress at a faster rate without oil in the 50s and 60s. Oil is the reason we have thieves in all sits of goverment instead of leaders. The real resource is in the skull and not under the sea or in the ground. The world is saying bye bye to hydrocarbons graduaully, with hybrid cars ,solar panels, wind mills , bio fuels.

Laudable at the face of it, but thousands of ghost workers will be on the pay roll.

For those who dont like the pastor,you can  insist on paying N141 whenever you want to buy PMS . As for the real patriots , it is not over until it is over, be ready for another round of civil action.

God bless Nigeria.

The arguement that things have always been like this is fraudulent, you guys voted him to come and fix things. Shebi the slogan was "Fresh Air" ?.
Now we have entered a a one-chance bus called GEJ, but we will fight back, I can assure you we will fight back.

Nigerians potested against IBB ,Abacha and OBJ and many of them were slain, they were seen as matyrs. But to protest against Jonathan is seen as war again Ijaws, this is dumb abeg.  

Seun , Beaf is gradually making NL to be repulsive to rational people, do something about him please.

It is the usual cosmetics, doubt anything will come out of it. But we are coming back for them very soon.

This is about 7 months since they were sworn in, so the wouldnt have done anything without people taking to the streets?

Oh yes, FG underestimated Nigerians. I also diasgree with a contributor who suggested that Nigerians only ask for subsidy retention and nothing more. I was shocked to hear artisans talk about N1b feeding budget at the villa, newspaper budget N45m for VP e.t.c. The kind of questions asked by Nigerians really rattled the government. Questions about cost of running NASS, multiple ministers/ministries, dubious oil trade by govt cronies,how subsidy jumped fron N300b to N1.3b trillion in 2011. This must be the first protest that Nigerians in diaspora took part all over the world.
While I believe that strike will be called-off today with some concessions from both sides , but Nigerians will continue to ask questions till we see tangible changes in our polity.

@efisher The reasons madam gave are valid but they should have resulted in marginal increase in subsidy costs not 400% . Because none of the other determining factors grew 400% I.e population,GDP, e.t.c. The fact that the astronomical increase started after April elections.

They have been transferring NEPA/PHCN to private owners since year 2000, don't roll out the drums yet, till it is successfuly done.

Beaf:
Fine babe with brains! So, so rare. You set my heart pop'n, hop'n and thump'n!

Please people Sisi Kill did not write in isiZulu, don't go reeling off the constitution and the requirement for order mandamus to sergeant Nweke or corporal Aliu Al Wathiu, they will think you are abusing their parents and might react an "accidental discharge." This people don't know grammer (to be sincere, they hate it), they only understand, suyaing, peppersouping and pulling the trigger. Nuff said.

One of the rare occasions you relay the facts as it is.
