Lol.
A professor of Law who serves a barely educated president, but professor can't understand that Nigeria's fraudulent political structure of 20 states created by northern military dictators in one northern region, a northern region led by the tribe of the barely educated president, is reason why professor serves the barely educated president as VP.

Yet, Professor queries why Nigeria should be restructured politically in a democratic atmosphere.


What a professor, Osinbajo

That will not stop Buhari from going back to Daura in 2019.

OreMI22:

You shameless liar.

Even the blind know the truth how Buhari has been a curse to Nigeria.
On every index for human or economic development, Buhari failed Nigerians. Ghana and Kenya through visionary leadership have maintained 6-8% GDP growth. Where is Nigeria in Africa since 2015? What about the performance of our currency the naira?

Anyway, nobody expects any shred of truth or seriousness from a murderous Janjawid supporter

People just do not know what hit them and use cliches they do not understand. In addition, there is no critical thinking. We all depend on the social media and adopt whatever views and cliches that conform with our circumstances. We then see them as cast in stone and proceed to espouse them, along with the possible prejudice, venom and bigotry. Ignorance in this direction is flowing like the Atlantic ocean.

Atypical example is the current idiatic Jubril narrative. How can people be so dense?

I always ask.... Is their anytime in our history that we have had enough and the best? of everything?

The best thing that can happen to Nigeria right now is the Atiku Plan... I have taken time to study this policies and i can authoritatively say that it is what we want for a better Nigeria and not a crawling next level policy that has no direction...

The mistake of change in 2015 which we did not even ask what kind of change will not repeat itself again....

We as Nigerians must stand up to let these politicians know that anyone who fails to deliver on his promises will be shown the way out after 4years and with under-performance penalties... We are wiser now! No more APC.

I almost forgot buratai is the same guy who managed to buy a hotel and a mansion both in dubai and under a nigerian army salary. This guy na magician. According to Lavoisier, 'rien ne se crée, rien ne se perd, tout se transforme'.

Pictured is a gallant Nigerian soldier who survived the Boko Haram attack which left over 100 troops dead and many others injured in Metele, Guzamala Local Government Area of Borno on Sunday, November 18th.

According to an online report, the soldier identified as Gboy Nick was said to have finished his bullets during shootout with Boko Haram - with about five terrorists fast approaching his location. 

It was gathered that the soldier became confused and could not run to avoid being gunned down by the insurgents. 

He was reported to have hidden under a trench and brought out his jackknife to defend himself while waiting for his fate.

The soldier reportedly used the knife to stab and kill one of the Boko Haram insurgents who unknowingly came close to where he hid before he collected his rifle and continued in the fierce shootout.

Gboy purportedly gunned down four of the remaining terrorists before fleeing to a far distance where he joined some of his colleagues who had already escaped. 

According to Barrister C.J, the soldier is back and has promised to show some love to his Facebook friends as a way of appreciating his survival. .

it seems Global oil price is nosediving...treasury bills rate are expected to increase, Naira is expected to fall and CBN might have a turbulent time defending the naira. Black market sources said USD has started increasing..Is this the best time to take the FX risk Advice oooo

This fantastically Buhari govenrment stinks only the BMC crew can't see it. UK parliament are mocking them and Transparency International has acknowledged they are more corrupt than GEJ regime.

The euphoria that greeted Buhari when he won the presidential election in 2015 with a pledge to fight corruption has died down. Majority of youths were not born during Buhari military rule and fell for the propaganda and folklore about how he fought corruption and arrested politicians in the 80's and they were willing to ignore the fact Buhari was the first leader to bring recession to the country.
Under Buhari's tenure Nigeria has become the object of international ridicule and known around the world as a fantastically corrupt shithole :

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56BIlZo3BFM
During his tenure we witnessed the following corruption scandals:
1) Buratai Dubai mansions and Minister of Interior Dambazau $2 million USA mansion
2) N33 Billion NEMA fraud
3)Babachir Lawal N233M grass cutting scandal
4) $25 billion NNPC contracts signed without due process when he was on his sick bed in London, UK
5) Refusal of EFCC to investigate Tinubu,Amaechi,Oshiomhole,Fashola and Fayemi despite numerous petitions
6)Timipyre Sylva 47 houses returned to him after he decamped to APC
7)The $43 million Ikoyi apartment funds
8- Refusal to investigate Bola Tinubu Alpha Beta over N100 billion tax evasion claim by the former MD.
9) Reinstatement and promotion of police pension thief Abdulrasheed Maina who was in Dubai enjoying his loot
10) Turning a blind eye to Ganduje $5 million bribery.
11) EFCC became the defence lawyer for Oshiomhole when Ochei compelled them to investigate the N43 billion embezzlement charge against him. EFCC claimed they don't have enough manpower and can't be compelled to investigate any one by the court.

1) You are fixated with NNPC as one big indestructible company may be because you think NNPC is like Petrobras or Aramco. The PIB suggests breaking up NNPC. Are you saying the PIB is rubbish because there's synergy between NNPC, DPR and others?

2) Nigeria uses traders to sell her crude, there's nothing magical about that. The same trading of crude can be assigned to DPR or any other agency.

3) Atiku can't sell NNPC because it was created by an act or parliament (I would need to confirm) but NNPC as it is today needs to change drastically.

4) I understand the NLNG model very well. The government owns a majority (45%) but the day to day handling is left to other operators. Petrobras is also majorly owned by the Brazilian government (55%) but its run like a private organization.

NNPC has always been the piggy bank of the President as opposed to a professional run industry giant. That needs to change and fast.

1) It doesn't matter where DPR started. As of today, DPR is not part of NNPC and DPR is responsible for regulating the oil industry.

2) NNPC owns refineries that don't work, it's a refiner in theory not practice. By the way, the country spends huge sums paying the salaries of people doing nothing.

3) The forex NNPC supplies the country comes from crude oil sales. Selling NNPC doesn't stop the sale of crude oil.

4) If you sell the refineries, move NPDC to the NLNG model, sell Duke oil and the Data service company, while keeping NAPIMS, you would have sold a majority of NNPC while still retaining the arm that manages the JVs.

5) Compare NNPC with NLNG and you'll see the difference is like night and day. What the government needs is an efficient regulatory body like the NCC to over see the oil industry and not an over bloated work force in the name of a national oil company.

This is stale..GMB hired 80% of PDP members as his cabinet members.

Nigerian President and Vice president are the only vital persons in the equation. 80%?

Naija GDP in 1999 was less than $200bn, PDP doubled the economy . Our reserve was less than $4bn, PDP grew in by 1000% to about $40bn..

only 500k Nigerians had telephone, PDP increased teledensity to over 120m..

Minimum wage in 1999 was lesss than 2k PDP increased it N18k@900% increase. Tens of Millions Naija had no bank accounts.. no ATM machines in 1999,PDP introduced ATM and intriduced banking to tens of millions of Naija.PDP cancelled out foreign debt by $38bn. PDP built EFCC, ICPC, BPE, DMO,NAFDAC, etc

PDP created EFCC? I will leave you with this video for proper learning, after watching it, you will realize how s!lly it is to say that the PDP created EFCC, are you 2yrs old?
https://twitter.com/MemeCentralNG/status/1063859163003068416

PDP created BPE? what exactly did BPE achieve for Nigeria if not privatization scams? BPE and NCP under Atiku orchestrated the biggest heist in our history 56 government establishments were liquidated without a trace, workers stranded and starving, jobs lost, you call that an achievement? you are a joker!

BigIyanga:
A failed JAMBITE!! Answer the question pls.. This question has nothing to Igbos.. So with ur ethnic card you buy a bag of rice@N9k while Igbos buy it @N20k?

Masterclass32:
Nigerians are by no means better under Buhari, however you check it. Is it economy, security, health care, standard of living, employment? Millions have lost their jobs. Under his watch, Nigeria became the poverty headquarters of the world. People are killed daily like we are in a state of war. Human rights are abused. Court orders disobeyed with impunity. Feeding properly is a hard for most Nigerians. Where do u start?

That some people still support Buhari for 2019 is a wonder in itself.

OreMI22:
A lot of arguments about the purported integrity of Buhari against the other Presidential aspirants has been the reason given by his supporters.
A comparison of quality of life indices among Nigerians have deteriorated since 2014 compared to 2018 under Buhari.

Despite all the lies and propaganda of Buhari's regime, Nigerians are poorer, have less access to electricity, education, good health, massive job losses, increased unemployment, while Buhari and his henchmen have continued to grow richer. Nigeria's economy and GDP has continued to shrink despite the lies of Lai Mohammed and other Buhari Ministers. Buhari himself informed Nigerians that he did not know how to run a business. If a man self admits that he cannot run a business, can he be trusted to run a country of almost 200 million people?

In direct contrast, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar has been a very successful in business, management of human resources and creation of employment not just in Adamawa state, but the entire country.

The question today is : Are Nigerians better off now under Buhari than they were 4 years ago?

If the answer is Yes, then Buhari should continue. However, if the answer is NO, then Buhari must be voted out of office for a more intelligent and a better skilled manager of human resources to manage Nigeria better for our overall good and prosperity.

OreMI22:
Only those who love to live in squalor and hunger will still prefer Buhari after all his evils and empty promises.

1) DPR is not not NNPC ( I knew you didn't know this)

2) NNPC might own refineries, but it doesn't refine because they don't work hence the crude oil swap/subsidy.

3)Shell, Chevron, Total et al all operate joint ventures on behalf of themselves and the NNPC. The NNPC operates nada. The only thing NNPC does is contribute Nigeria's share of the money and it's something the CBN can do.

You need a law to unbundled NNPC, that's why we have been clamouring for PIGB. NNPC is an act in our constitution.

I know that over the years, we've developed enough Local content capacity to do most things in the oil industry. Neconde, a subsidiary of Nestoil doesn't have a foreign technical partner. Rather it partners with NPDC.

If NNPC were as productive and profitable as Gazprom, Petrobras,etc we wouldn't have been talking about selling them. NNPC is going down under a huge debt coupled with satanic corruption. I have no problem with state owned companies that are doing profitably and productively well.

We can go back and forth with this and I'm all in this debate because I believe that this is one of the best solution to the problem of NNPC. Unbundle and sell major stakes/useless assets, tie the money to projects that can be seen and impact felt.

What does NNPC do?

NNPC doesn't drill ( They just partner with Oil companies in Joint Ventures)

NNPC doesn't refine.

I see you've been showing your ignorance up and down the thread calling NNPC a regulator..... News flash, DPR is the regulator not NNPC

As you can see from the Petroleum Ministry's website, NNPC handles commercial venture a.k.a collect money for the government while DPR regulates.

You can as well say the website is lying.

can you isolate DPR from the NNPC operationally? Monkey!!

you see the kinda f00ls that parade around this website, they dont know anything yet they cant shut up! that is why all the reasonable people that started this website are all gone because of semi r@tards like you, seeing a topic or thread is not an invitation to display !diocy, I dont know who cursed most of you.
If you dont know what NNPC does, ask those that have a clue, dont come here to type rubbish that can misguide those that genuinely want to get knowledge.

PIGB will take care of your fears in your 2 paragraph. Incase you don't know in the PIGB, NNPC will be unbundled. Nigerian Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NPRC) will be in charge of regulation. Nigerian Petroleum Assets Management Company and
Nigerian Petroleum Company (NPC) maybe incharge of the 10% FG shares.infact, i read that NPC will replace NNPC and tis to be operated as a commercial entity that pays dividends in addition to Royalties and taxes.

You forgot that there are indigenous oil exploration companies that may not be affected and may even move to bridge the gap Incase of any sanction. We have Nestoil, Conoil, Oando, etc. In addition to NPDC or NPC when PIGB is signed into law. So again, fear not.

In those countries that you mentioned, if you check their corruption index, you'll find out that they're in a better position than Nigeria. If you decide to go further, you'll realise they have more competent hands in their civil service because they have a system that encourages merit based performance unlike here where we've gotten rid of competence or merit and replaced them with Nepotism, uncommon corruption, quota system, etc.

I repeat we can survive and thrive on taxes.

AZeD1:
NNPC collects money on behalf of Nigeria. Any fucking agency can be given that task. NITEL was sold and the country didn't collapse, rather it moved forward. The only thing the Nigerian government should be doing is regulation (see NCC, NERC, NAFDAC) et al.
NCC doesn't sell phone's or data or doesn't anything remotely close to the Telcomms but its doing it job well.


You should spend more time reading .

NNPC collects money on behalf of the federal government
so in your miserable old age, you dont even know what NNPC does?
Who gave a bingo like you access to the internet?

Kingspin:
Something have to be done to NNPC. Nigeria is not the only country that have oil. Other critical sectors need to follow.

Acidosis:
Yes, my relatives work for NICON Insurance. Do you have any information to prove they don't work for NICON Insurance?

Did you shut down the company in your head, dreams, or you simply want to be dum.b this morning?

awelekiti:
Guy, you look confused. Fyi, I was a manager in a leading telecomms company before i set up my own business so, don't think you're talking to a kid. If you need help, I'm always available. Ciao.

Kachikwu working on what Kachikwu that worked with the NASS to pass for the 1st time since 99 PIGB, only for Buhari to reject it over a flimsy excuse. Kachikwu is a minister without portfolio.

Atiku said that he'll sign PIGB into law making NNPC only a regulator. Meanwhile, he said he'll sell 90% of NNPC.

Sanctions? Even now we can be sanctioned by intl community and nobody will buy our oil. So your sanctions argument is nonsense.

Thank God that you mentioned MTN. The sector is being regulated by NCC. Now why can't NNPC be made to function like NCC? You shouldn't be a player in match you're also refereeing.

See we should reduce power at the center. History has shown that any company managed by Govt whether state or federal is bound to fail simply because of corruption. That's how most of the old money made their ill gotten wealth.

NNPC from the day it was found have been enmeshed from one corruption scandal to another. Even up till this day, the corruption stories emanating from there is insane. So it makes common sense here to separate the goat from the yam. Sell NNPC assets, let the money be tied to life changing projects like health, education, infrastructures,etc.

You are wasting your time arguing with these dunces.
