Ibo.

Always so shortsighted.

So what should the government do? Let them continue blowing pipelines and killing people/soldiers?

How many militant groups should FG dialogue with? You talk to one today, another criminal group pops up.

Your support for these criminal groups is one the reasons they still exist, so check yourself too.

Had Northerners not supported Boko harams, they won't be as big as they are today.

The SS is the one blowing air on this fire, and the fire will eventually consume you. Even if the country breaks apart, the culture of militancy will still remain in that region because it brings easy money.

How many of the militant criminals like Asari Dokubo helped to develop the SS? Didn't he build a University in Benin Republic? Do you know how many SS children that could have helped?

Before your shortsightedness makes you shout "Yoruba" as usual, tell us how militancy and boko haram has helped any of these region.

. You spoke well my broda cos some of my fellow south-south have been brainwash by the corrupt leaders. Only a fool will destroy is environment, becos he is protesting, which is detriment to is own people. I was thinking they will locate Abuja, even thou NDA was sponsored by politicians that have been cheating us, and now PMB have now blocked the conduit by which they loot. Over ninety percentage of this militants are Ijaws. My simple question is why do GEJ failed to develop atleast his fellow ijaw communities, but rather choose to empower few who are the major beneficiaries in our region. Haven lost the election, his kinsmen now want to drag other tribes who didn't benefit as such from GEJ, to be fighting with presidency as one. I support every move by the president to flush all this criminals and sponsors.

henrydadon:
so u are telling me he was born rich..?

so u don't know his dad was a former governor of lagos state abi. Where broke con exist for him side.

ucee64:
i must confess mikel is an easy going person look at hw he accommodated all of them though there are not on the same level.

what are u saying, was he not also accomodated after under 20 tournament. Don't write rubbish for writing sake. Always reason very well before u write, so dat u will not become a laughing stock.

SamMilla1:
The government of Nigeria has lost focus on governance. Scandals and economic hardship has taken over the land. Foreign exchange currently determines itself because there is no structure whatsoever to keep it on check.

The Northern Team at the central bank, headed by one Emefiele stooge from the south has succeeded in taking us closer to Zimbabwe than any other country in the World.

Another Team of Northern illiterates headed by one stooge Kemi Adeosun from the south, does nothing else except weeding out every PDP sympathizer from the ministry of Finance after tagging them ghost workers.

One thing people failed to understand was that Okonjo Iweala wasn't just a minister of finance, she was also stubborn enough not to allow some useless demonic governors and politicians dictate to her. This Kemi doesn't strike me as someone who can tell El Rufai to sit down.
......

Buhari is losing grip of the economy while chasing money we don't know anything about.
He did this in 1984 and it created poverty in the land to the extent that people queued to receive sugar and milk.

Now people are owing at the grocery stores all over the country and both houses of the National Assembly are busy fighting while Masses suffer everyday.

really, and the same Iweala under her watchful eyes, there were high scale of looting in the last regime. Are u not ashamed of her. Keep fooling yourself.

ganisucks:
I just love this woman. You can search the entire length and breadth of APC Yorubaland and you won't find one woman there who can hold her ground like NOI

. Just look at the nonsense you are saying. Are u not ashamed of her, who under Obj she was amonged the few people who helped in clearing our debts but also engage in borrowing when he served later in Gej's govt. During her second stint has minister of finance, she lied to Nigerians dat we have the biggest economy in africa which was just in papers, when really we were not. under her second stint, Nigerians were rushing out of the country in droves, expecially to african countries like south- africa, ghana, kenya, tanzania and so on like never before. If she has had integrity she could have resign but she remained. Now she now accusing the ex president of not having the political will to save from the excess crude sale in history of nigeria where she helped distribute. By the time Kemi Adeosun finishes as honourable minister of finance you will be ashamed of your self.

I taught dat my brodas from the east are no longer on this forum again, when the issue of most of their kings were secretly collecting money from the herdsmen for grazing was raise.

@ Anonimi, what was the price of crude sale in GEJ regime and now. Over hundred dollars to now thirty dollar and you want PMB to use dat to clear the mess GEJ left abi. You better receive sense. One year can't be compare to six years. D so much more he made was looted by his men. Wait till 2019 and then you can compare.

This is just lies. D Ize- iyamu I know will gladly accept it if it where the truth. He is too power drunk. He can't rule Edo State. He played an active role in the ill fated Lucky Igbenedion's tenure. They only constructed a single road in Benin city who happens to be the capital of the state and also their senatorial district. Corruption was their slogan then.he's never a tru christian, talkless a pastor.

Sahara reporter are actually the only media outfit dat keep exposing corrupt act. When the president return I believe he will give order to EFFC to prosecute does involved. The wailers are busy writng from left to right now from all corners and they are praising thesame paper becos it affect the northerns most. If they report crime commited by us from south-south and south east, u will be hearing fun stuff like, SR an APC Outlet, its witch hunting and d list goes on. What I observed in dis forum is dat we have higher educated illitrates around. They will keep supporting our brothers and sisters corrupt act and thesame time, they want government to provide for them the good things of life, which our criminal brothers and sister have distroyed. The war against corruption has come to stay cos anyone who don't like it can go and jump in the lagoon.

So, because GEJ was not given the award, and you people are condeming it. If it were given to him, by now u people would have turn dis forum to sometin else. How can he be given when there was high scale of corruption in his regime. Do you think accepting defeat was the criteria? Mo Ibrahim is the most credible award given foundation in Africa as at now.

Keep decieving yourself. If you say we Edolite are tired of APC then what will u say about the wasteful regime of PDP in their ten years reign. By September 12, come back to dis forum and get d result. Oshiomohole might have had is short-coming but still far better to that monster ex Governor Lucky Igbinedion who constructed a single road in Edo-south (Benin) were he hail from.

What a brilliant idea by the initiator. Most of all this governors are criminals. Tanks to PMB and his co travellers cos I definitely believe changes has come. Does unable to meet all this simple stuff, are the criminals. Some got the last bailout and wasted it. Naija is definitely going to move forward because a new sheriff is in town, who don't tolerate nonsense. Long life and good health to our president in Jesus name. Only him can actually put end to corruption because is a courageous man. Its slogan since 2003 to 2015 when he won was to fight corruption to a standstill. This has been the major hindrance to development of Nigeria.

You people should get to understand that EFFC was only probing arms deal traced to the office of national security advicer, who happen to be Dasuki. When arrested he said the arms deal money was diverted to 2015 general election, and he claimed to have shared it to some persons accordingly by the order by presidency. So the yam eaters are the ones you now see been prosecuted now.

Down here in south-south, our governors since 1999 collected 13 percent of monthly income from oil before been shared to the three tiers of government and four states namely Rivers, Akwa-ibom, Delta and Bayelsea are among the top five highest states receiving allocation from FG when shared among states goverment and couple with agencies like NNDC, ministry of niger-delta affairs and the Amnesty programme. How come our region is still not developed, abi does who have manned this offices are northerners. What I see is corruption on the path of our leaders and not also forgeting we had a president for about 5 years within this period.

This has been the reason why northern will always dictate the tune at any given time, except God said other wise. Just look at the tactical endorsement of Modu Sheriff as chairman by Markarafi who Ekweremadu, Fayose and Wike fought so hard to install. Northerners don't really fight themselves cause they are united. Dis remind me of electioneering in 2007 presidential election between the late ex president Yaradua and now president Buhari. They never trade any form of insult, and even lately in last year elections cos no northerner castigated Buhari through out dat epic moment. Where is d wisdom allowing north having national chairmanship slot and also zooning 2019 presidential election to them also. This shameless southern PDP leaders keeping blasting Ameachi and co of betrayers.

@ ei BADAn, through your speech, I am very convice, she is capitilizing on you people's finiancial status to sustain herself and family. I don't think there is true love. When u get abroad u will probably meet ladies there and u can begin a date, but don't disclose your background to any of them. Just pretend you came hustling for yourself there. Be mindful of gold diggers.

A big kudos to the poster. Some of us knew all dis for long but political sentiment will not let us speak d truth. The same banks government grant bailout too in excess of 600 billion some years ago, will now believe dey can now disobeyed, knowing fully were they are d regulators. Dis is actually d kind of government we are been waiting for. I urge all of us to always choose d path of honour. Most of dis banks are not business inclined, cos their been operational is to provide avenue for corrupt government officials to starch our money in their banks and also help to keep in foriegn banks too for them. If u say u don't support government in dis, then it means u people are comfortable with d maltreatment of nigerians in the hand's of Chinese, Indians and Labanese notably. Let us always dwell in constructive criticism for the sake of our country as things will soon get better.

I don't know how every issue will be politized here on nairaland. The APC made dat promise to Nigerians,for the benefit of all school children and with the current drop in revenue, There is nothing bad if states contribute. If Fayose and any other Governor don't want to, then I urge the FG not to grant bailout to them in the other proposed fresh package for states. The last time I checked, the APC didn't promise to grant bailout. Fayose and co should find alternative on how to generate income and add to d dwindely revenue that come to their state.

So you people think the acting VP will appoint anybody without the input of Buhari. He merited it cos I have follow him for long time now.

You don't know what you are saying joor, oil has drop since over 2 years now, there were no time Ekiti collected 3 billion monthly from FG. Even Edo state didn't collect that know. Fayose should have look inward how to generate more revenue rather than always been negative about FG. The bailout he collected was wasted. How will a sensible governor will want to construct airport in Ekiti state where no serious commerce, knowing that neigbouring Ondo state has one already and still not getting regular movement. Oshiomohle met IGR of about 300million monthly but as today is over 2billion now that is why payment of salary has been better compared to some states.

Well said, I am a Niger delta to the core, some of us are so lazy that they think oil is everything. Take a look at d six niger delta states n you will know oil has even became a cause rather than blessing. When PMB give bailout to twenty-seven states, only Akwa ibom didn't collect. Mind you its currently the richest in term of oil well. What I see is dat the Igbos are trying to break away from nigeria and they know they can't achieve dat alone, they are supporting the so called avengers just for the reason of achieving their aim. if nigeria break out today, d north will be far better than any other region cos naturally they will fall to agriculture not minding other deposit they have. We brag down here of oil and with the rise of foodstuff now why are we all complaining that its expensive and there in north foodstuff are still moderate. D igbos should fight their struggle alone and not drag ND to their selfish motive.

Ignorance is when you places appointment more than capital projects that will benefit your entire region than personal. Wait oh, u people had SGF, and many important position in d last regime and even adopted GEJ as one of you, but no meaningful development was witnessed. Now that PMB is embarking projects in your region, u are complaining. Thou I expected that sha cos most of you love money than human.

Their fight is becloud of selfishness, I can place a bet that the composition of the so called niger-delta avengers is 80 percentage ijaw's and few other tribe, notably Igbo consistute the remaining 20 percentage. When GEJ was in power most Ijaw's make us(other niger-delta tribe) understand that they are to benefit only dat his their turn. The ex president failed to turn around our region, for d benefit of all but choose to empowered individuals expecially his kinsmen. All promises made were not achieved. (1) to connect railway line accross niger -delta to lagos, (2) completion of east- west road, (3) he promised to build three refinenaries in nigeria and one of them to be located in our region, through the subsidy re-investment program(surep). (4) he promised to clean up ogoni land. With six years he couldn't achieve dis and they make us to understand he will do a lot of things in four years. What a joke. I know some of you will say its becos of boko haram. You forgotten he actually developed northern region to the detriment of southern region, just becos he wanted another term. We condem dis criminals act. Blowing up pipeline will only cause more effect on our land. Imagine fishing n farming activities have gone n sufferings will be increased. I honestly pray that oil is discovered in other region substantially so dat our oil mentality will stop. Most ijaw's are lazy cos even Gov Dickson of bayelsa states said it some days ago. God bless Nigeria.

This is just dignify how kings should be not most of d political kings we have nowadays running after politicians like their aide. Great Onni for dis one not your predecessor who became an arm of PDP. May ur reign continue to bring joy n happiness to Ife kingdom,Osun state and Nigeria as well. May u live long great one.

@ OZOAEKPE, he would have been defeated if he said it before election. He knew there were problems that he can't solve but just for d fulfilment of second tenure n d party sentiment dat APC is a northern party. He should b ready for showdown wit is people.
