I hope Nigerian youths know who their enemies are?
Buhari sent the 2018 budget and the 2018 appropriation bill containing the USD400million helicopter purchase to the National Assembly since November 2017. The National assembly refused to pass both the budget and the 2018 appropriation bill. The order for the purchase of the helicopters had a deadline of March 2018 inorder to meet a delivery date of 2020. The FG had no choice but to place the order for the helicopters in March since they had done their own job and sent the appropriation bill containing the intended purchase to the NA since November!!! Why the National Assembly has refused to pass the Appropriation bill and the Budget since November 2018 baffles me!
There are rumours that they are waiting for kickbacks from heads of FG agencies before approving the budget. Another rumour is that they are using the budget passage to blackmail the FG into dropping corruption allegations against many of them.

You are either ignorant or just a mischievous filth. The purchase of the fighter jets were NOT captured in the budget AT ALL that is why Buhari is clamouring for it to be included AFTER he has already spent the money.

This is a flagrant abuse of the constitution on the limit of presidential approvals, absolute disregard for the principle of separation of powers and prejudicial accounting recklessness.

All budgetary estimates by MDAs must be defended before passage by the national assembly as required by the constitution. Many MDAs have not defended their budgetary claims but you are already accusing the national assembly of bribes.

Pathetic filth.

Someone made a complaint about an alleged collusion of MTN in censoring this thread with evidence of claim. The thread has been hidden www.nairaland.com/4470342/media-censorship-begun-mtn-blocks by the pathetic clown.

Orkar, I'll roll one for you. Your methods needed a bit more operational efficiency but your concerns are still very much prevalent twenty eight years later.

Rest in peace.

If any large opposition party or a coalition of parties is watching, they'd use this dude. I don't mean use him as a presidential aspirant for the 2019 election, but as a destabilizing force. The fact is that Sowore currently lacks the logistics and time to give him a credible chance at the polls. No matter how royal his idealisms are, the minds of the people are too remote to offer him a great chance in the next election.

To make a great mark in the presidential election, especially in a country like Nigeria, you have to ingrain your brand and resources especially at the local level. Sowore does not have the time nor the resources to do that. Even Atiku, a two-time VP, started campaigns a long time ago and is more ingrained in the corrupt system which is Nigerian politics.

Elements of the national army of a country behaving like animals.

The Nigerian army has taken responsibility for the attack, which resulted in burning down of houses in a Benue community on Thursday.

The Army said the attack was in retaliation for the killing of a soldier by some residents of the community.

This was made known by Olabisi Ayeni, the spokesperson for the Nigerian Army 707 Special Forces Brigade in Makurdi, who identified the slain soldier as Danlami Gambo.

The soldier was said to have been alone when he was killed in unclear circumstances on Wednesday afternoon.

The soldier was thereafter buried in a shallow grave, according to the Army spokesperson.

The apparent reprisal by the army resulted in the death of one elderly citizen who was killed in the blaze.

Olabisi who said that preliminary investigations revealed that some locals were involved in the killings of the soldier, did not say if the soldiers who participated in the reprisal attack that left a senior citizen dead would be punished for the offence or not.

Also confirming the military’s attack on the community, Francis Ayagah, chairman of the local government told newsmen that the soldiers were responsible for the attack.

While confirming the killing of a soldier in the community, Ayagah said he had been in touch with the commander of the troops stationed near the town to check ongoing killings linked to herdsmen across Benue State.

Mr. Ayyagah who earlier confirmed the arrest of five suspects linked to the death of the military personnel, expressed his dismay that the soldiers could still embark on rampage across the town despite his cooperation.

A member of the community said that the military official who was roaming on a farmland near the community, was lynched by hoodlums who mistook him for an intruder, saying that there have been reports that some killers were sighted in military fatigues in the state over the past weeks.

Another account said that the slain soldier went to buy bread in large quantity in the community and when asked to identify himself by curious residents, he declined to do so and was subsequently assumed to be an attacker and mobbed to death.

The attack by the soldiers has resulted in many people running away from the town because there’s nobody to protect them from attacks by gunmen.

According to reports, the situation had been made worse by the withdrawal of police Special Forces from the community following a clash between the officers and commercial motorcyclists a few weeks ago.

This website had earlier reported how about 20 houses were set ablaze in gunmen in military camoflague.

I fit swear say no be Paso write this thing.
Mo fo ooo

Man, when I see some of the monikers on this thread, I wonder where they are now.

Those were the days.

Teetopz:
President Buhari doing what he knows how to do best. Disgracing Nigerians since the days of John The Baptist.

This is what you get when you elect someone with a NEPA bill certificate. A mistake that needs to be corrected.

We are not Lazy
Nigerian youths are willing to do jobs that they actually hate just to make ends meet. Nigerian youths adapt to EVERY situation to survive. Nigerian youths are not Lazy!
I came out with Second Class Upper in History and International Relations from Benue State University, Msc in History Same University decided to go into charcoal selling to make ends meet, due to lack of Jobs. The Bus Driver that took me home has two Msc in Education driving Danfo, do you call that Lazy?
My Neighbor holds a masters degree in geography but sells Amala and co for a living just because, Buhari promised to pay provide jobs after seeing how NG Youths suffer. Came into power & thousands of Youths have lost their Jobs. He now goes to the UK to say we are Lazy despite owing us N120K Foolish.

There is no such thing as Lazy Nigerian Youths. Have u ever been to Obalende at 4am? Have u ever been to Ikeja Along by 12am?
People strive to wade through the murky waters of Nigeria's educational system, come out to try and survive in the nasty job market,but you call them LAZY?!!
Imagine calling Nigerian youths Lazy...
No Jobs: We became entrepreneurs
No light: We still generate our own electricity
No Government support: Yet we still fend for ourselves.

Let's all get on the streets....if truly we are upset..That's the only Language these guys understand otherwise #Please go get your PVC
Buharis's Statement is an insult to the pic attached
I am in tears

You curated this from Twitter, you this bipolar clown.

These dudes throwing gang signs.

My advice is that any person who has any decency should verify government releases as critical as possible. Do not allow yourself to be a victim of alternative facts and bare faced falsehood. Many more propaganda will be churned out from the brood of vipers ahead of the coming election; you owe yourself the duty to fact check.

wickyyolo:
I don't believe this write up will come from Bishop Kukah

Did you really read the article rather than just the headline?

The article is an indictment on Buhari and the mindless drones in the North subjected to subsistence living by their overlords.

Kukah claims

Indeed, the Buhari project presents us with an interesting view. The average northerner has become far more impoverished under Buhari than he was under (former President Goodluck)
Jonathan. But they will still vote for Buhari because they see him as the only one who can help bring their derelict elite to order. It is a strange appeal but that is it.

They believe their corrupt elite are above the law. They were seduced with Sharia because they believed it was going to help them punish their own elite, who they see as being above the law of Nigeria. These are the issues.

SakuraSimiola:
Tbf Igbos have no Boko Haram kidnapping their children.

I assume you realise that many people know you are the same person as dejisantos. No one is clicking any of your channels or making your threads pop.

Lol. This read like a comic strip.

Clown.

Everyone should be patient till their accounts are audited.

In their desperation to fool those who do not know better and in their deception to hide from what they ignorantly railed against, they use "underrecovery" instead of "subsidy".

The effect is the same on the balance sheet, ladies and gentlemen.

War will be end of the story, if in the name of self defence against attack everyone carry guns, cutlass etc. imagine the way some Nigerian police officer on uniform and with guns treat and kill innocent civilians cos they have that power, so if everybody has the power to protect themselves i bet it that we are all equal to protect against attack even from the government not only from terrorist. That is war. Though we have a failed system where our security system has been jeopardise but i am not in support. This is Nigeria not Somalia or Libya

What war are you talking about? The one in which victims of these marauding murderers are subjected to is what? Peace? Are you aware that if the people recognize and are able to arm themselves, then these rampaging filths would think harder? What exactly do you think happens when these filths come to your house around 1am? Call the police? Call the military? In this failed state?

In case you are ignorant, then let me inform you: Have you ever pondered that the reason why police oppress and intrude into people's property and privacy with reckless abandon is because they realize the inability of civilians to bear arms?

What exactly do you think happens when a policeman realizes that the house he is about to intrude or the person he is about to oppress can bear arms?

The bolded shows you are poorly informed.

It is only zombies and sick vermins that are misconstruing what Danjuma said as call for war.

Here is Emir of Kano, Sanusi, telling people to brace and defend themselves against attacks in 2014 https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/171271-emir-kano-sanusi-urges-nigerians-defend-selves-boko-haram.html

Since the government has proven itself increasingly unwilling or unable to defend them and their properties, then it's only natural justice for them to defend themselves.

Violence in self defence against external violence is acceptable and inevitable.

chairman00100:
and vise vasa bros, looks like you didn't think through your comment bros

He is from the north. It's typical.

sonikstargirl:
I cant believe that some people are actually still defending this boko haram buhari.

So you fell for this childish kidnapping story...I'm so dissappointed

I think you should read my comment again.

And your username is sooo '80s.

slimthugchimee2:
which helicopter could carry over a 100 people

Did you the read the article where the girl claimed they were divided, where some were flown and others took boat?

Do you read to comprehend or you just skim through it.

KenOne:
So some people are believing this poo of flying them in plane from which airport to which run way. Or because of hate to say government is accomplice. Abi plane now take off in the forest or bush as the case may be, abeg you comedians remind me of the boeing again, is it boeing 767 or 776 flight.

Don't be a dummy. Have you heard of helicopters? It is a magical invention that is powered by engines to make it fly. It can take off and land anywhere with minimal space. There has been rumours of helicopters making drops to Boko haram. This solidifies that claim.

According to you clowns, anybody with constructive criticism against the govt is because of hate. Bill Gates also hates the govt too.

Pathetic filth.
