As if their opinion matters.

I now know why the nscdc man refused to complete his organization's website.. who no dey fear hackers?

Ah! It started like a "normal runs" now someone's going to jail.. Smh. Stay away from anything bad.

If only you guys can be showing us more of these rather than engaging in "stone-age kinda insult" sessions with anti-government posters.. Nice work by GEJ's government though. I must confess, our airports are a lot better under GEJ.

Impressive. People who do their work deligently need to be rewarded. Mr. Police man, you ve earned your reward!

dolphinife: Flag carrier is d airline which has the colour of the national flag of the country crested on the aeroplane's fuselage like the south african airways, kenyan airways, british airways, etc. National carrier is the airline adopted by a country to act as its nominal national carrier. Example includes delta airline for United states, former virgin Nigeria for Nigeria, arik air for sierra-leone, etc.

Note: national carrier does not have the national flag colour of its country crested or implanted on the body of the aeroplane.

Back to the topic, it seems this minister is suffering from diarrhea of the mouth. What modalities have been put in place for this eventual take over from these indebted airlines? How is the FG going to collapse the staff, aircrafts, building headquarters, and some strategic functions of these different airlines together?

I dnt think dats going to work in this year. Maybe next year tho

thanks for the education. Never knew this.

There is nothing wrong with this. She is free to contest.

Africans will always be Africans.. Smh.

Imagine our first lady and dat GEJ last boy ontop bicycle..

resident Goodluck Jonathan  may have  directed  the  National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party,  Dr. Bamanga Tukur,   and other members of the PDP National Working Committee   to resign.

It was learnt  on Monday that Jonathan  gave the directive  after  the  presidential committee on the PDP crises headed by the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Chief Pius Anyim,  submitted  its report to him in Abuja .

The order and submission of the report which noted that the party was drifting coincided with the lifting of the suspension of Sokoto State Governor, Aliyu Wamakko, by the 12-member  Tukur-led  NWC.

 A member of the presidential committee,  who spoke to one of our correspondents on condition of anonymity, added that Tukur and  the other NWC members  would tender their resignation letters  at the party's National Executive Committee meeting scheduled for Thursday in Abuja.

He said apart from the  PDP internal crises, the President  was concerned about  the position of the Independent National Electoral Commission on the  manner  majority of the NWC  members  came to office.

INEC  had queried the affirmation method that returned  most  of the NWC members  to office.

  It was also  gathered  that the NWC members were told that they risked being sacked if they failed to quit before Thursday.

A PDP source said, "If they fail to resign before Thursday,  they will be sacked." He added  that the Presidency had already directed that a caretaker committee  be set up in place of  the NWC.

When contacted, a member of the NWC, who wondered how  Jonathan's  directive was leaked, merely said  it was true.

"How did the story leak? Yes, it is true. I am already packing my things from my  office, " he said.

But another NWC  member, who also admitted  that  they would cease to hold office   before Friday, said,  "We are not resigning because President Jonathan asked us to do so.  If we resign, it will be  because of the report by INEC. We will be resigning to protect the integrity of INEC."

A national leader of the PDP  confirmed the looming  dissolution of the NWC,  saying,  "You remember INEC had said that it does not recognise the election of a majority of them (NWC members).

"The fear is that one of those on the NWC could go to court and aver that the election that produced him or her was illegal.  Anybody could go to court on that score too. The party may have problem at that point."

A member of the presidential committee which has governors Emmanuel Uduaghan (Delta); Goodwill Akpabio, (Akwa Ibom);  Theodore Orji (Abia );   Isa Yuguda (Bauchi);  Ibrahim Shema (Katsina); and Gabriel Suswam (Benue),  as some of its members,  had said the panel was not pleased with happenings in the PDP.

He said, "Our report, which might not   please    the President and the leadership of the party, is that the party is drifting. We have told him not to allow the party disintegrate further because whether we like it or not, the party is drifting dangerously and we have to arrest that.

"We have put in the report that some actions of the National Working Committee  are repressive and unnecessary.

"We wondered why the party refused to hold its NEC  for about a year, which to us amounts to breaching of the party's constitution."

The party's  constitution  stipulates that NEC must hold at least once in a quarter.

The panel, which also has the Chief of Staff to the President, Mike Ogiadhome; and the Political Adviser to the President, Ahmed Gulak, as members therefore recommended the immediate holding of the NEC meeting,  which has not taken place since July 2012.

The Board of  Trustees of the party  is expected to  meet in Abuja  on Wednesday.

Our correspondents gathered on Monday that  pressure from PDP governors  made  Tukur  and his team  to lift the suspension  on  Wamakko  at a press conference jointly addressed by himself, Akpabio and four other governors-Uduaghan,  Orji, Yuguda and Shema.   Anyim and Gulak were also present at the briefing.

Investigations by our correspondents showed that the governors had indicated their readiness  to fight Tukur  because Wamakko's suspension was based on a "trivial" issue.

The NWC of the PDP had while announcing the suspension of Wamakko, said it took the decision because of alleged insubordination to Tukur and his office.

The NWC had earlier suspended the Governor of Rivers State and Chairman of Nigeria Governors' Forum,  Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, for refusing to reinstate  a suspended Local Government chairman and councillors in the state.

But the PDP governors whose chairman is Akpabio,   were said to have expressed anger over the gale of suspensions in the party, particularly that of Wamakko.

Wamakko, while describing his suspension as null and void, had called for the sack of Tukur and Gulak.

He had accused Tukur of  running the party as his  personal estate.

The governors' anger  was said to have made  Jonathan to set up  the  Anyim-led  committee to look at the crises in the party.

While announcing the lifting of the suspension   on Wamakko, Tukur said, "Now this issue will never come again. It is a great party, we believe in our nation. We need a party as a platform to stand on, but based on unity, discipline and commitment.

"We are also going to have NEC  meeting.  We have the support to rescind the suspension, which is a very important thing. We rescind the suspension of our governor of Sokoto.

"With that, we are ready for further business because NEC meeting  is the requirement of our own party, always to get in touch with the people to tell them of our programmes, like the state- of -the nation and state of the party.

"So we are going to have our NEC meeting on Thursday, June 20 by 12pm.

"NWC has rescinded the suspension of the Sokoto state governor on the appeal of the PDP Governors' Forum and secondly the National Chairman is inviting the PDP statutory members to the meeting of  NEC."

Also speaking at the  briefing , Akpabio said that the  presidential committee appealed to the NWC to lift the suspension  of  Wamakko.

Akpabio added,  "I want to thank the national chairman of our party  and other members of the working committee for granting us the privilege of this meeting today (Monday).

"We came as a select committee of the PDP to discuss the state of affairs of our great party, particularly the relationship between the working committee and the PDP governors and I want to say that we make a very strong appeal to the working committee on behalf of our colleague, Governor Wamakko."

On why Amaechi's suspension was not lifted, Akpabio said it was because of a  case he (Amaechi)  instituted against the party. Source:www.punchng.com

Shey dis taihiti win one competition before dem come dis championship? Which kind people dem compete with eh?

PDP can only kick southern governors around. The north operates like a country of its own, politicians are lords in their domains and care-less about Abuja politics. I bet wamakko or any northern governor can insult GEJ, PDP, Tukur, etc and nothing will hapen to them, but that cannot be said of southern PDP governors. Selective justice is bad, PDP take note.

Billyonaire: No one leaves PDP and still retain political relevance in Nigeria.

Orji Kalu left and won 2 states for his hungry party then PPA. Rochas left and won PDP. Chris Ngige, olusegun mimiko, George Akume (senate minority whip). The popularity of a politician in his area is not a function of his party, but his ability to keep his people together. PDP only has a master template for election rigging. Nothing more.

ogb5: There is no crisis anywhere over this.
A change to the provision of the constitution is not something the senate can do without the support of the executive.

How do they intend to get 2/3 of the state assemblies to pass a constitution the president and 1st term governors are opposed to.

When GEJ proposed a single term in 2011, it was for him to spend a single term of 6 years.

What the senate are now proposing, if started in 2015, will mean GEJ will be spending a single term of 4 yrs.

The implication is that this amendment is simply aimed at stopping the 2nd term bid of GEJ and will be resisted because it infringes on the rights of the president.

Can you stop being biased? How on earth can a constitution amendment project which was taken round the country, deliberated upon by many nigerians and their elected legislators (empowered by the constitution to change the law) be targeted at one person?! The voice of Nigerians as a whole can not be overode by 1 man, be it the president. What GEJ should be doing now is to look for a way of getting the state lagislators to strike out the part unfavourable to him. But with the way he and his PDP cohorts are kicking the governors around like school boys now, I doubt if he can achieve that since these governors have a firm grip over their states' assemblies. I guess this is the major reason why GEJ is afraid.

ode! Your mates dey maiduguri dey catch bokoharam for JTF, you dey here dey find who to dupe. Lazy fellow!

Abati has reduced the presidency to a child's play. Presidential statements are not something you dish out anyhow like a market woman dishing out curses on her mate who just snatched her customer. We are talking about the office of the president of the Fedral republic of Nigeria here! You don't dignify every criticsm with an answer. Segun Adeniyi was able to protect Yar'adua's government without "agboroic lingua" inspite of all the tongue lashing that government got from Nigerians. Rueben has demonstrated clearly that he is not capable of defending mr. President with facts and figures. I am waiting for his response to a statement released by ABU students' union.. Smh.. Yes he can stoop that low.

Rehil: And who is the fool that said A.B.U is a free school?as a northern christain i know what i went through before graduating talkless of getting the admission.Lets face it,A.B.U should be tag Islamic university of Nigeria.And for this so call group,they themselves are a disgrace to humanity.They should shut up.why didn't they say anything about the boko haram issue?i weep for christain students in that AFGANISTAN in Nigeria called Zaria

which ABU did you attend please? I guess you were a lazy student.

Ah! To mess na crime? but the driver harsh sha, that is attempted murder unleashing such corrosive gas in an ac tight ride. I hope the governor ordered him to stop and open the door for fresh air to come in sha.

Sokoto airport na motor park? They actually allow people to stroll on the runway? Hah!

karl max: the north is already divided if u don't know

Quit being naïve. No northern governor is in support of GEJ, forget the pretence.

We have already agreed that Abati is a man without shame naw.
