Kanu campaigning for 2019. Correct guy man.

Is he no longer agitating for the actualization of Biafra? With independent candidacy soon to be made part of the Constitution, the dude might be actually campaigning for 2019 and his followers do not even know this. Yeah, you got a point there.

johnreh:
too much power at the centre n these selfish politicians are so comfortable with it. There should be dissolution of power to the states for effective democracy.

You probably meant to write 'devolution'.

aminulive:
Former vice president, Atiku Abubakar has weighed in on the recent rejection of the devolution of powers to states bill by the Senate in a series of constitutional amendments.

Atiku expressed shock at the decision of the Senate to block the passage of Bill No. 3 which would have led to the devolution of powers to states. In a statement made available to PoliticsNGR on Thursday, Abubakar complained about the lost opportunity to fulfil one of the APC's election promises which was to restructure the country.

The statement read;

“This blockage of the bill by an APC-led senate majority is a betrayal of our party’s pre-election promises. It was an important vote and I’m shocked by some so-called progressives’ visceral and cynical opposition to restructuring.

He expressed dissatisfaction over the "alleged reluctance of democratically elected lawmakers to remove the insidious structural impediments to development which decades of military rule had hoisted upon our nation."

He argued; "“Instead of building the foundations for a true federation, a small group of so-called progressive senators decided to stick with the new party line, pretending they didn’t know what restructuring was all about, and that even if they knew, it couldn’t be done.

I think this is disingenuous, and I think it is a sad day for our party. But I’m confident the APC will learn the right lesson from this self-inflicted defeat and remember the mission and mandate given to us by the people".

Atiku also advised Nigerian lawmakers to do what is right and not make decisions based on self-interest.

“Let me be clear: restructuring is no panacea to all our nation’s problems. But devolving resources and responsibilities from an overbearing, unresponsive, and ineffective Federal Government to the states is the first step we must make if we are serious about putting our nation back on track, and our people back to work,”

Devolution of power to the States is a misnomer at this time and was rightly reected by the National Assembly. What have the so called state governors done with the power they already have? Nonsense!

Speculation by the 'source'! Even if Buhari returns today, he will be of no use to Nigerians as he is too incapacitated to continue in office. Therefore, his return is of no moment and insignificant in the circumstance. As a matter of fact, it means nothing to the suffering masses of this country. Buhari should resign honourably on health grounds. Nigerians will understand if he eventually decides to toe this path.

saintandsinnerz:
Can just stop with this your wack judgement already! So, you're already condemning him based on what the NLS said about him? Have you heard his own side of the story? From the story, it is already clear that the NLS is negatively biased against him and they manifested it in their action. Ask yourself if they would have expelled another student based on the flimsy excuse of having a petty altercation with another student. Not judging anybody but I think the guy was not treated fairly and that is my major concern.

Your opinion though. I have read his own side of the story. I have also read the Press Statement issued by the management of NLS. After reading both, I came to the conclusion that the Kayode Bello was as guilty as hell and was rightly and properly expelled from the law school. Deal with it!

KayDEAN:
Yet whatsapp is free, how do they even generate revenue

Is Whatsapp really free?

salveoP:
Watch out for dis guy, he would be called to bar if not dis year, next year. His stubbornness has taken him dis far, he may become a govt official in d future. Watch out!!

That guy will not be called to Bar now or in the near future. You obviously do not know the tradition of the Nigerian Law School.

jesi800:
Let's hear the boys own story or I don't belive this.
Girls and favour from Men,old men

His own side of the story is in the public domain and correlates with the statement issued by the Law School.

IamaNigerianGuy:
Am I the only person who cannot see a concrete case against this Bello fellow ?
Seems to me like the law school authorities are just making things up as they go along and looking for all sorts of reasons to punish the guy: he took someone's seat, he printed t-shirts in protest, he refused to answer queries, he had problems in his undergrad years, his principal sacked him bla bla bla.
The sum of their arguments seems to be against his non-conformism.
What is his main and concrete offence ?

In other words, NLS expelled him for expelling sake? How many students have the school expelled in recent years? Na wa oooo!

younglleo:
this AFONJA got no chill. This one fit slap jugde wen he is told overruled. Thanks for expelling him

I tell you! Him madness no dey here.

moses93:
make una no vex abeg, I hear say bubu don come back, na true?

Na you bring am back?

gbosaa:
Someone said, "all because of a seat"?

It wasn't because of the seat. I think mr Bello's 'village people' were trailing him.

I will partly blame the dude for not knowing when to lay low. He was on probation, a wise person would've avoided and withdrawn from any argument or scruffle that would've thrown the spotlight on him.

The law school claim that they had enough facilities (chairs) is nonsense. They showed bias in this case against the person of Bello. They were just waiting for any excuse to throw him out.

That lady should have taken another seat with all the empty seats there as claimed by the law school. What was so special about that particular seat?

They weren't fair on him but he should have avoided that situation.

As rightly stated by the school management, there are enough seats in the lecture hall to accomodate all students. I should know. Can you imagine? The rabble rouser left his seat at the back row and went to occupy the lady's seat which he thought was reserved for her and even when told that the lady only went out momentarily to ease herself, the thick-headed boy refused to vacate ther seat. Such tom-foolery! He got what he rightly deserved.

oz4real83:
I am ashamed if this is coming from a school that trains our lawyers. It is a case of victimization. Why will u give a warning letter when he hasnt committed any crime? All his crimes were done in the university environment. If the university deemed it fit to have allowed him to graduate and did all his clearance,why would the law school bring up the issue again? Why declare him already guilty in the law school when he hasnt been accused of any crime within the law school? His actions were predicated by the actions of the law school.

Did you read the post at all? If you did, did you come across a line where the law school decided to admit him despite the negative report against him and even made sign an undertaking to be of good behaviour which he serially violated? Has it occured to you that the said Bello might be a nut case? Is this the type of person that you think is proper to be admitted to the Nigerian Bar? Do you even know the standard set for any aspirant to the legal profession? In view of the statement released by the management of NLS, do you think that this Bello is a fit and proper person for the Bar? Pls, always digest and comprehend a post before rushing to comment. The Bello boy was rightly expelled from the Nigerian Law School in the circumstane of the case built against him.

yanabasee:
I think these men actually visited Buhari..... But none of them cared to ask Buhari to resign!!!

They were all smiling to the camera with the supposed Buhari as if they were advertising a toothpaste!

Nne5:
Relaxing and having a good time AT HOME while his countrymen are suffering.

He even knows UK is home.

London is home to Buhari. Nigeria is a foreign country which he visits once in a while. As a so called President, Buhari has stayed more days in UK and less in Nigeria, a country he is supposed to be governing!

"He was at home relaxing and having as good time" - Okorocha. Nigerians have indeed been taken for a ride. So, London is President Buhari's home and not Nigeria. It is now certain that Nigeria have no President. What we have is a visiting President.

dejavubobo1:
so why call him acting
He's performing all d presidential function, sign budget, swear in ministers, make appointment, lives in Aso rock. I think he's more president than the sick man in London.
(except our sit of power is now in London)

Really? The cabals controlling the affairs of government approved the swearing in of the Ministers after three months of being cleared by the Senate. Which government in the world waits for three months to swear in Ministers confirmed by their upper legislative chamber? Only in Nigeria! The country is really on auto pilot.

Okoroawusa:
who will jail me?nigerian govt or biafran govt?

Ask Uche Onyeagocha. I am sure he will supply the answer.

But Okorocha said that the President will return in two weeks time. The liar is at it again. FFK was right to say that he will never believe anything that proceeds from Okorocha's mouth.

Josh44s:
Everybody for this country get bad mouth die. That was how somebody said Okorocha should start sewing his prison Uniform.

Of course nah! Or where do you think he will be after 2019? Someone suggested that he should go on exile to avoid the humiliation that will befall him at the end of his disastrous tenure.

lollypeezle:
Sagay, as much as i don't support Fayose sometimes, i can deduce fear in you

Attack Fayose's message and not his personality to prove your point.

If what Fayose said is not true, all i expected from you is just to dare Fayose to release the pictures, then we will believe Fayose is not in possession of any picture but instead you have made us believe Fayose is in care of some scaring pictures about our president.

Fayose Please release the pictures

Unfortunately, Fayose has no pictures to release. Just an empty threat. The Prof. already knows this and thus had no reason to attack him on that score.

richidinho:
mttcheeew...who takes this imbeci1e serious again

Prof. Sagay or loquacious Fayose?

Is there ever a responsible clown? A clown, by his mode of behaviour, is already irresponsible. So, Fayose does not need to be a clown to be irresponsible. He is already an irresponsible governor.

Evablizin:
Okoroawusa are you done with your prison cloth?

The glib lying governor will not escape the gulag after completing his tenure. That man has destroyed Imo State, and more particularly Owerri where the delusional governor has destroyed all the landmarks that makes the town tick and replaced them with inferior, below par structures! A mad man he is. The state have never had it so bad since the days of the late Sam Mbakwe. Okorocha's corrupt tendencies and land grabbing inclination knows no bound. For once, a fraudster bestrode Imo State.

Garrithe1st:
How does moving from one place to another like a squirrel help actualize the Biafran pipe dream ??

Ask them. The dude is just showing himself. He knows what he is doing. Unfortunately, his gullible followers thinks he really means business but the reverse is the case. Nnamdi Kanu is feathering his own nest!

Nairalandaire:
What happened to all the bail conditions?

The case is not ended yet. When it resumes, the bail conditions will be reviewed or revoked. Nnamdi Kanu has flouted almost all of them.

Let Amaechi confirm the authenticity of the visit himself. That Dele Momodu had a video call with him does not mean that Amaechi was in London at the time of the call. He could as well have been in Abuja. Nigerians have learnt not to believe anything that comes out of the mouth of officials and aides of this roguish goverment.

FFK contradicted himself in this write up. In one breath, he did not believe that the APC governors visited Buhari in London. In another breath, he wrote that the President was just sitting there moronely with the governors like a stuffed manequin who does not know what is happening or even aware of his surroundings. Are we then to assume that FFK believes that the said governors went to London and interacted with a zombie President who contributed nothing to the discussion? FFK should endeavour to make sense when writing on issues of this nature and not babble with words dripping with bile.

SalamRushdie:
Obasanjo is an old fool , so he means God used him Obasanjo to loot and destroy our nascent democracy ? If not for tribalism that keeps protecting this man he should be in jail for carrying out the most brazen loot of our economy with his cronies which saw them steal over 16 billion dollars from the power sector alone without any result to show for it , Obasanjo should also take credit for derailing our nascent democracy then by making in it into the expensive and corrupt democracy in the world all because of his greed for power ..The truth is that Trump is 5 million times a greater man than you Obasanjo ever was and has proven himself a winner from private business to Hollywood and now Politics where America is on a steady growth under his able and competent leadership.

Trump knows what he is doing and where he is going. Obasanjo's ill-intentioned comments are worthless and of no moment. They go to no issue.

Warship:
Trump's presidency has returned jobs back to Americans. Can the same be said of OBJ


Trump has never destroyed any US citizen or town for opposing him. Can the same be said of OBJ

Obasanjo is a hypocrite. A very corrupt individual!

LUGBE:
Obasanjo should stop talking please. Look at Nigeria hmmmmm

Obasanjo is among Nigeria's problems and he is there talking about America. He is the man that institutinalised corruption in the Presidency and the National Assembly, or has he forgotten so soon?

benedictnsi:
Have been in Anambra state for a while now, have studied and asked questions to people who are indigen of the state...... With what Willie Obiano has done so far..... I don't think anyone can uproot him......

I think the guy should change his slogan from "Willie is working " to "WILLIE HAVE WORKED"


APC, APDA etc are just barking

Yeah. You got a point there. No party may be able to unseat Obiano at this time. The governor has done well so far and the people of his state are happy with him, I guess.
