so he makes no sense trying to elevate our country and let d world see us more?

You don't elevate or showcase ur country by stifling variety/creativity and trying to interfere in private money expenditure. Rather u do that by creating a reasonably easy business environment with important basic infrastructure like power, good road networks, effective transportation and security. With these in place, people will be begging to invest n take advantage of the large Nigerian market.

Which one is acting chairman of INEC? What happened to the substantive chairman?

How unfortunate!

First relocate Buhari to LUTH so we know you're serious.

No o! Gwagwalada Teaching Hospital or Unimaid teaching hospital o! Before they will say they gave him d last dose of poison in the south

BB nigeria was taken to S. Africa because of power failure, is that a country

Don't mind the dumbo. They want them to contribute to our economy by buying generator and diesel with the prize monies meant for the winner.

use ur head ..how does producing ur home movie in america sounds ?? use ur heads pls

It sounds like there is a major problem back home and that's why it's happening. It tells a story of poor infrastructure n facilities like power, advanced technology and associated high costs of production. It isn't just fun to burn money going abroad but there are underlying benefits. Check n make sure the government provides those basics or makes the environment friendly enough for such investments before lookin for Nigerians to blame.

Lai Mohammed that has made such statements, did u ask him how many tourists sites he has cleaned up and promoted enough to make Nigeria a forex destination through tourism? Security nko? Is d country not supposed to be safe enough to allow said tourists to come in and move around freely? Once d government does its job, the economy will naturally bounce back and grow.

Op did you fall asleep halfway? Complete ur story n put source biko.

A naghi a gwa onye ochi nti n'agha esula.

Very good! The idiots thought propaganda would serve them endlessly.

ChieduJoshua081:
com what is ur problem? Why did u say that? Dont u support it? eh? How many times has Drake come to Nigeria to do his music here? How many times has sam smith, Ed sheran, Adele, Beyonce left their country to come and do their business in Nigeria? Cant u see that some Nigerians are senseless?

How can Drake, Beyonce and co leave where there's constant electricity, Internet access and advanced technology to come down to the direct opposite? Unless they need African slum scenes sha.

They should stop exporting crude and importing refined crude n petroleum products! So they are worried that Nigerians patronise the economy of others with their private money and bring in d products for Nigerian consumption when nature has blessed us with crude oil yet we import petrol, kerosene and diesel?

Politicians should stop patronising foreign medical facilities and they should provide electricity 24/7 then they can be seen to make some sense. So now they want to legislate on stakeholders with their private money when they can't even fix basic infrastructure with public funds!

God punish these mad dogs! If they need to to shoot international scenes like all dem 30 days in Atlanta and Osuofia in London, what then happens?

We can't have two midgets as president and vice please! The two will keep trying to outdo each other in line with 'brief people practice' and y'all know what that means. God forbid that El-Rufai smells that seat, such a bloody murderer!

See issues? Yet some will say his regime is better than the previous because there's 'no more stealing' (big, fat lie)! What is that? The economy should now be destroyed in d name of 'fighting corruption'? Osinbajo cannot do anything significant until he gets rid of the islamic demons that sicko appointed and filled the place with.

Sad!!

The only problem is the op and the other olabebe and the so-called oyinkola are all the same person. Because of lowness of IQ, ola had to appear in all the names..

Dullness

Exactly!

moninuola65:
So you want to proof ipob/kanu is not the agent of PDP?

He clearly isn't. Y'all just like to put down what u don't understand rather than trying to gain some knowledge out of the process. What wonderful offer can a PDP so roundly disgraced and ousted from power offer him to make him stay in jail for almost 2 hours and abandon the comfort of the UK where he's a citizen not just some loafer?

Keep on feeding the patently false narrative that Biafra and NK came into being because PDP lost election cos in ur mind the Biafran war was fought on March 28th 2015.

oladeebo:
even kanu and ipob were in the streets celebrating!
we will finally know the enemies of this nation these days!

Do u have to be such a liar? Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB where? Besides are u not aware d matter was between factions of PDP? It's still one faction of PDP that would have emerged or was the court supposed to nullify the entire party?

That's a country with civilised and reasonably satisfied citizens. If na Naija ehn! The harassment no go get part 2 and that is if one idiotic handler will not nick n drink it or carelessly crush it with other luggage.

Geriatric sickness and rabid hunger for power. Dem wan die put!

Kai! My beautiful sister! Why did u remain in that nasty place so far away from home? May ur gentle soul rest in peace.

The loans, especially from the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF), had been dragging after both bodies insisted on having blueprints of the Nigerian government on how it intends to utilise the funds and repay.

They also insisted on the FG putting in place critical fiscal policies, which have not been met.

So, rather than meet these fundamental requirements, they've chosen to look for funds that they don't have to be accountable for? Funds that their utilisation cannot be tracked through a blueprint that should guide expenditure and development projects? This is such a crying shame! No matter the sources of income, do we not still need those critical fiscal policies? When will Nigeria get its act right?

Juliearth:
You argument is greatly exaggerated. I do not like to ponder on an issue for too long...therefore,to each his own.

Yeah, to each his own especially when you choose to downplay and euphemise obvious atrocities. It's a good thing u are unable to challenge any of the specifics I mentioned rather than claim them to be overly exaggerated.

Juliearth:
And is violence peculiar to the Northern part of the country only? I dont mean for this conversation to be bigotted,but have you forgotten so soon about the killings in the South? Militancy?? Cult-inspired killing Nigeria is a wild wild wild super wild west and not just the North

Yes, this targeted and deliberate violence against people of southern ethnicity or of the Christian faith is peculiar to the North. Nowhere in the South do u have muslims n northerners deliberately isolated and killed unless in very few reprisals. You still meet the same northern muslim fulanis raiding farms n killing resident farmers in the Southern zones. Has such ever happened where Southerners go on a rampage and start killing northerners in d North?

Be honest! Nigeria is crazy but the North is the worst! Absolutely terrible religious and ethnic wicked bigotry reigns supreme right from their mosques. U see in the op that Christians run into hiding once they're done from Friday prayers; has it ever happened that muslims are afraid and run for safety once Christians finish Sunday service?

doctokwus:
OK.
Just thought thought that with the kind of profile they were projecting about him,d man was already a seasoned lecturer of lecturers just waiting to b conferred with prof title.Guess I was mistaken about that.

He might just end up with the doctorate cos getting to Prof is a lot of work and includes loads of publications which will be screened and vetted. Since he's no longer in the academic environment, he wouldn't even qualify for professorship cos I don't think he's been doing much by way of publications. Again it's dependent in what level he was at before quitting the academia for politics cos he remains there till he grows through the ranks to become prof.

You really think that the countless number of churches and homes of Southerners set ablaze as well as the human victims who are unceremoniously hunted and slaughtered can be classed as the actions of an unruly mob?! You may want to consider the perspectives of those who have been victims of this madness justfor being Christians or Southerners. The madalla bombing on Christmas day some years ago? An unruly mob or deliberate targeting of Christians in a church?! Perhaps your idea of jungle justice?

U want to claim same things happen in the South right? Even with the morbid hatred most SE and SS states have for APC, which of those states have recorded the volume of killings as we had in 2011 because of electoral losses? Even the Rivers people like to make so much noise about, did Rivers youth kill northerners because APC won elections in some areas? How many mosques have been burned in the South as Churches in the North? You really think u can equate those actions and so the hate for the wickedness of the islamic north is unfounded? You've got another think coming then. Stop trying to downplay obvious evil.

The naturally peaceful nature of Southerners is what gives u and ur kind wings but soon, una eyes too go clear.

EazyMoh:
I was referring to the likes of FFK when I made that point.
Yeah! you people cheer him on even when he comes up with ridiculous allegation based on regions or ethnic issues like that CRK removal allegation, a syllabus that was created and approved since 2012 under Jonathan.
There is jungle justice especially in the south almost on daily basis, but because most of the victims are indigent, the incident ends there.
My point is mobs are unruly and barbaric in this part of the world. In Ghana a military officer was lynched by a mob that suspected him to be an armed robber. Likewise suspected cultists and even petty thieves.
Now tell me is it every sane individual in the society that supports such jungle justice?
I will never attack no support lynching or attacking anybody because they insult my religion or petty theft.
What I am to do is to protect myself against the attacker only. Even a person who blasphemed despite it carries death penalty, the sentence can only be passed by a Court and so is the execution. Any group of Muslims or whoever that kill the suspect prior to trial has committed murder! Just like those Ghanaian villagers.
Am not even sure what part of my comment you were trying to address, but I was trying to point out to you the way you guys benefit from the north and at the same time insult, castigate and disparage the north and it's people one would think there won't be any easterner left by now in the north.
I have many igbo friends, but it's your crass attitude that is unbearable, insulting and irritating. It will eventually be your downfall when you annoy the rest of the country that they decide to push you our into your Biafra, na then your eyes go clear.

...

This is nonsense
so because she's a woman and graduated with a First Class it's news... men graduate with first class all the time I don't see it making news but once it's a woman everyone will make a big deal out of it.. bloody misogynists.

if this lady graduated from a private university she paid for that first class and if she graduated from a public university(federal or state owned) she probably slept with alot of people and spent money too.

lastly can we stop making a big deal out of a woman's success. I think women have already established that we can and we will always succeed no matter what hold us down

It's not a crime to celebrate good stuff whether male or female. Also, lots of men or males get celebrated for coming tops too so don't be so uptight or defensive.

AustineE1:
We seem to be going round in a vicious circle,we fight a terrorist that is directly or indirectly being financed by the government. How else do you explain the fact that as soon as Boko haram is beginning to run out of fund,negotiation is opened up and a few of the chibok girls or 'made to believe' Chibok girls are released and government in-turn gives them millions of dollars(billions of naira) and the recruitment excercise for boko haram picks up,and there expert bombers are equally released to them!
Seriously,we are in for a long thing,Nigeria must restrategise and change our modus operandi,we are equally endangering our neighbours and exposing them to regional terrorism.
No doubt the Nigerian army is doing a great Job and we appreciate it,kudos to them but those in the highest making body of our security must way there decisions and get it right, beyond political gains.

This might sound like morbidly pessimistic but the truth is, this boko haram bullshït has become a cash cow and source of racking cheap political points so it's not ending anytime soon.

Very good! They've learnt the significance of election boycott! Anything to restore dignity and equity whether under one name or in 2 separate nations is highly welcome!

EazyMoh:
Ironically it's mostly the easterners that cheer those politicians that use religion to further divide us.
When every small incident is painted with religious and ethnic coloration, a simple fight between two individuals can escalate to full blown war.
Again, the so called volatile and dangerous region has ten times more non-indigents than the other regions. Up till today there are more easterners in even Yobe than northerners in Ebonyi!

This is a warped mindset and presentation. A good number of times, the victims of majority of these riots and blood letting sprees are the Easterners and not because of any provocation from them but because some evil political n religious leaders capitalise on the ignorance, poverty and illiteracy among northerners to cause unnecessary madness and wicked actions.

Exactly how do Igbos or Easterners cheer such bastards on? Like, encourage them to harm them more? Meanwhile u seem to have a problem with the number of Igbos in the North n other parts of Nigeria so I'll let u know that until the letters n words of the Constitution concerning freedom to live n own property/businesses in any part of the country are changed, u should swallow that bile n live with the facts.

doctokwus:
Thought Ekweremadu was already a law lecturer in UNN b4 entering the senate?
Was he lecturing law with just a masters?

That is very much within the realm of possibility. Most law lecturers and lecturers generally start from basic first degrees and progressively develop themselves whilst growing in rank. There may be certain levels one cannot grow beyond without certain degrees but yes, he could have lectured with a masters degree

And you you were given quite notice to vacate the zoo but what did you do? You started running from pillar to post shouting blue murder, didn't you?
