karl max: can u match u assertions with outes from the bible where any of this people Ʊ mentioned were called politicians or contested any political post in there Time! Did any of them preach the type of hate message that bakare is preaching? A political activist and social crusader is diffrent from a politician!.bakare is a card carrying member of CPC!! Stop comparing him to those people Ʊ mentioned in ur post!

Kobojunkie: Also for your education, these are some of the prophets your God praised and used in the Bible to change Nations


You have the likes of Moses in the Bible, who started off as a politician in Egypt, and spent much of the rest of his life as a Politician for Isreal, leading the country into battle after battle, whilst he remained head Prophet of Israel?

Joshua who replaced Moses, fought war after war and is known for being involved in the famous war without direct bloodshed in Jericho. But the number of lives claimed during his reign as prophet of Israel --- no prophet after him, I believe can come close to.

There is Jeremiah(the book of Jeremiah), who was a Prophet but was hated by the people because of his criticism of Government, but was vindicated in the end when the wrath of God came down on the whole country for refusing to listen to him??

Let's not forget about John the Baptist(Yes, the same John the Baptist you probably grew up hearing of, cause I doubt you have ever read of him), the Political activist/environmentalist whose day job was as a Prophet of God. The same John the Baptist who Jesus Christ himself required should Baptize him only weeks before John finally met his death at the hands of Herod for openly criticizing the Government of the day, calling for repentance or wrath?

How can we forget Esther who not only doubled as queen(politician) but also served as a prophetess, saving Israel by using her feminine wiles, political office, and connection to God.I bet you would have declared her a harlot if you had to be the judge on whether she was godly enough or not.

the list goes on . . . so again, why is Bakare less of a prophet?

chucky234: Haba why did you resort to combination of Queen's English and pidgin? Guess you attended Umukoro secondary school,Igbobi.

chucky234: Look who we have here,Kuntakunte roaming NL unclad.
Annoying jerk,go get some sleep little tom.

kutchs: And a ‘professor‘ of punctuation fails to give a space between words (poor,what head,dont). Am just laffing.

chucky234: arvard? Are you kidding me?

chucky234: Is that the best you can do? Your petty political analysis makes me puke, Billyonaire,Jmaine and Dedeike would have make a better opposition because you are really terrible.
A government that has so far generated less than 1000MW in 24 months has suddenly become improved power driven,do you ask yourself how much has been spend so far to achieve that little in the power sector? A whooping sum of $25bn has been spent so far to achieve just 3,800MW while Brazil spent $10bn to achieve 10,000MW that took their generation capacity to 100,000MW to serve 201 million people,South Africa spent far lower than what we spend on power annually yet generates 45,000MW for 58 million people while Nigeria with 168 million people spent $25bn to generate just 3,800MW.
Which of the railways were you refering to in your laughable post? The only rail project worth a mention is the Lagos rail project and its been constructed with funds from loan facility from IMF,so where did you get your lame fact?
You stu:pidly mentioned roads but could not even list a single which clearly underlined how clueless you are,follow follow will not help you.
80% of the roads under construction were carried over from the previous administration one of which is the Lagos-Ibadan awarded by OBJ to a concessionaire Bi-courtney Highway Services Ltd.
Nine universities? Are you dreaming? GEJ would have been better off putting those funds into improving the already existing universities,do by any chance see the global rating? is it not a shameful thing that no Nigerian university in the top 5000 universities in the world?
Renevation in airport you say,you are funnier than Basket mouth.
Have you been to airports in smaller nations in Africa,you will sit behind that your IBM Pentium 4 desktop to type rubbish. MM2 is the best in Nigeria but can easily pass as the worst in Africa, so where is your paymaster been putting the released funds because I can't find any trace.
Take your time to nurture your young clueless combobulated moronic brain and try to broaden your knowledge in politics before coming out to sell your stu:pidity in public because you were very awful.

Kobojunkie: I knew at least one person was going to attempt the lie that they had this figured out from the beginning. Kai!!! The minister herself who blamed the media for the mis-information that surrounded all this was wrong abi? Kai!!! Nigerians ehn!!!!

dedeike: I think it behoves on Mr. Femi Gbaja, sorry, GBAJIAMILA to take steps to monitor the projects upon which funds have been released to ascertain their implementation.
It is his oversight responsibility. I don't know whether he has even diligently undertook this duty over the MDA's that his committee oversees.
His legislative function is not restricted to flaunting impeachment threats over a budget that is barely 5 months old.

jmaine: No one knew how she got 56% of released funds utilization . .

A primary sch chap can easily compute ==> 184/324 X 100 to get a simple answer . . .

Where 184 was the funds utilized and 324 was the overall funds released

Are we this dull or it is deliberate . . .

chucky234: Fegen,how are you househood products doing in the local market,guess you need to put in more effort to get some pittance from GEJ to support your production.

pastie: ODE,what do u benefit from her archievement?

Okonjo-Iweala named in UN social panel Published on August 1, 2012 by · 6 Comments
UN chief Ban Ki-moon on Tuesday named Nigeria’s finance minister, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, a queen, a former president, a Nobel Peace prize winner and a corporate mogul to a 26-strong panel to recommend new global social and environment goals.

Ban has given the panel a year to draw up what he called “a bold” new development vision to put to the 193 UN member states to replace the Millennium Development Goals after 2015.

Presidents Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono of Indonesia and Ellen Johnson Sirleaf of Liberia and Prime Minister David Cameron of Britain had already been appointed to head the search.

Ban on Tuesday named personalities ranging from Queen Rania of Jordan and German former president Horst Kohler to Tawakel Karman, the 2011 Nobel Peace Prize winner for her activism in the uprising in Yemen, and the mayor of Istanbul Kadir Topbas.

Japan’s former prime minister Naoto Kan, Grace Machel, wife of South Africa’s legendary leader Nelson Mandela, three serving foreign ministers — Kim Sung-Hwan of South Korea, Patricia Espinosa of Mexico and Maria Angela Holguin of Colombia — and two finance ministers Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala of Nigeria and Emilia Pires of East Timor — are also on the panel.

The corporate world is represented by Paul Polman, the Dutch chief executive of Unilever and Betty Maina, chief executive of Kenya’s Association of Manufacturers.

“I look forward to the panel’s recommendations on a global post-2015 agenda with shared responsibilities for all countries and with the fight against poverty and sustainable development at its core,” Ban said.

The Millennium Development Goals aimed to halve extreme poverty and eradicate many preventable diseases and stop the spread of AIDS by 2015. Many of the eight targets will not be acheived however.

jmaine: Another straw grasping attempt . . .i gave you a clear and transparent answer that eluded your technically sound mind, and all you could do is twitch to no where again

P:S ====> Some MDA's had previous abandoned projects to cater for, that should have some meaning to your straw clasping mind . . . .


If you must criticise . . .Please don't be ignorant

maclatunji: Feeble thinker a.k.a. "minion" a.k.a. "follow-follow".

jmaine: NOI never claimed that the entire budget has a 56 % implementation rate so stop thrashing that invalid point . . .The 56 % had to deal with the expended funds that were released . .please avoid that part



bros, there are certain due processes one must follow that are not easily fast tracked . . .though no one can deny the fact certain delays could be avoided in certain quarters . .

so don't heap all blame of budget take off on negligence.

While you might rate them poor according to your yard stick . . .it's pertinent you don't back the NASS in blackmailing NOI with frivolous lies, when she made herself clear from the onset . .

Constructive Criticism is good to make the leaders sit up and improve . .but when the very foundation of your criticism is weak and laced with dubious mischief . . .then it calls for caution and restrain . . .




You raised valid points but ended up yapping to no where . . .You anti GEJ paid lackeys equate perennial cynicism for technical acumen . .

You lot's need to shed your false toga of intelligence you ascribe to each other . . .

Four herdsmen were arrested in Nasarawa for possessing sophisticated arms and ammunition, the Police Public Relations Officer of the Nigerian Police Command in the state, Michael Ada, said on Friday.

Ada said the items recovered from the suspects were a PMSG sub-machine gun, one locally made rifle and nine rounds of live ammunition.

He said that two of the suspects from Kwala Village in Quanpan Local Government Area of Plateau were arrested on 26 July, in Lafia by detectives attached to the State Intelligence Bureau (SIB).He said the arrest of the suspects followed suspicious behaviour exhibited by them.

He said that upon interrogation the suspects provided useful information leading to the arrest of two others, Tukur Usman and Hamza Tukur of Gada-Gwari village in the Kuje Area Council of FCT.

He said that the suspects confessed to being in possession two other rifles, which they buried in a farm at the boundary between Nasarawa and Plateau states.

“Based on the confessional statement, the police followed them to the location and recovered the weapons,” Ada said.

He said the suspects were being detained at the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) for further investigation to ascertain the source of the weapons and other possible accomplices.

The PPRO urged members of the public to always be vigilant and report any suspicious movements in their neighbourhood to security operatives for prompt action.

henrychubayo: WHY WOULD THE SENATORS AND REPS BE GIVING 100 BILLION FOR THEIR CONSTITUENCES? HOW HAS THE EACH MEMBER UTILIZED THE SHARED HE HAS GAINED FROM THIS HUNDRED BILLION? WHAT PROJECT HAVE THEY DONE OR IS IT NOT FOR THEIR POCKET? WHY WOULD THEY PASS THE BUDGET BY MARCH INSTEAD OF JANUARY? This ppl makes me sick

chucky234: NOI clap for yourself,out of the actual N404bn released how much has been implemented in July? Where are the completed projects to point to as the evidence of proper utilization of the said N184bn you were talking about?
Project implementation indeed,shame.
