Politics / Re: Excess Crude Account Hits $7bn *FG, States, Lgs Share N731.13bn by koruji(m): 1:02am On Apr 17, 2013 |
This is the quote everyone should be paying attention to - "non-oil revenue was declining". That means the real economy (not the rentier one funded by petro-dollars) is doing very bad. Soon the oil revenue itself will start declining - Mr. GEJ is riding high on those petro-dollars today. I hope his economic advisers are putting on their thinking caps. I hope states are saving up some of these earnings - because when "it" hits the fan - the calabash will empty out. CFCfan: 1 Like |

Your assertions on this thread that asking GEJ to commission a project is enough to claim it as evidence of "GEJ working" is the senseless statement. Call me all the names u want GEJ is a disappointment !!! tomakint: 2 Likes |

Your reply should have been to provide facts on GEJ 's facilitation efforts so we can give him his due. You are the one that clearly claimed that this is GEJ working without stating how he facilitated it. I guess according to your logic every woman/man that opens a food store to provide employment is evidence of GEJ working. In reality these activities may be against all the odds of a GEJ presidency.

You better go and find your bearings. Do you think those two firms were built in the 2-3 years of GEJ's administration? You will probably find out that Fashola/Tinubu had much to do with facilitating these projects. That is why I advise people to keep GEJ from their projects because his loudmouths in the media have no shame in claiming these projects for GEJ. They are only inviting him to commission it - this is basically to honor him as the president, just like he was invited to the Eko Atlantic event. One thing though, he will at least get to see the non-work his administration is doing on the Lagos-Ibadan expressway. That would be the second time in a couple of months after going to RCCG to collect blessings. GEJ probably will not attend this event anyway. tomakint: ...and this is happening under the watchful eyes of Jonathan (the one haters branded retardeen, Jonathan etc) while their Fashola with more than N30 billion naira monthly revenue cannot even address the flood menace in Lagos, many Lagosians are even relocating to other states all as a result of frustration from the capitalist-tendencies of the 'so-called best Governor' a.k.a Mr Eko oni baje, the same man who jerked up the school fees of LASU (a state-owned University by more than 200% hmmmn, may God delivers many bigot-minded whiners on Nairaland ooooo (Amen)! 7 Likes |

What I am saying is it is all relative. You talk about manifesto, etc but we have seen none of these. The only thing we know about the party right now is a name and a convener that is already embroiled in a contract for political hire controversy. The connection is clear for all to see.

UPN it is for now? And yet the only thing you know right now is that it is being bought and paid for by PDP. You sound cofused when u praise an ACN gov knowing fully well that the others are doing quite well then reject that party for the unknown UPN. Do you expect GEJ to approve a contract for Fasehun if he doesn't think that he will then have money to serve GEJ's interests? GEJ has shown that his he doesn't care about Yoruba interests. Fool no one you are !!! shymexx: Anyway, welfarism is quintessentially part of Yoruba culture, tradition, and spirituality... and if UPN can bring that back to Yorubaland, they should go for it... We need leaders with astute Yoruba-ness and those who actually understand what it means to be Yoruba and the Yoruba consciousness of being your brother's keeper... Only the state of Oshun is doing that, at the moment - we need more people like that... However, a party with a manifesto based on the virtues of Yoruba people and welfarism won't be a bad idea... |

It is not about followership - it is about what is good for Yorubaland. If Tinubu begins to act against Yoruba interests he will lose support. Fasehun is dancing on the edge of losing support but not just yet. Goddex: But between Faseun and the Billionaire Tinubu, who is deserving of followership? 1 Like |

But the solution is to aim higher not lower. We cannot go back to the vomit of PDP and the locusts that have been given every chance to prove themselves in administering Yorubaland and not only fell flat, but ruled like warlords over the land. We need to ask more of ACN but Fasehun cannot let himself be used by the same PDP to ruin Yorubaland. It is as simple as that. And no, he doesn't have the money to make the party viable but if he sells his soul & the rest of Yorubaland to GEJ he will, and then we will be back to 2003 again. We want to keep moving forward not regress. Neo-XVI: 1 Like |
Politics / Re: SURE-P Getting The Job Done!!! by koruji(m): 5:15pm On Apr 14, 2013 |
They are still trying to pursue this brain-dead program of the Federal Government getting involved in maternity affairs. If they can't ensure the money for petroleum subsidies is used judiciously there is no way they will manage such an intimate & intricate program. Talk about jumping from fry-pan to fire. I have said it before that GEJ's advisers are would-be socialists. Roads, bridges & trains services are good projects but I'll like to see what is being done with the actual N4 trillion budget if all of the FG's project is now being attributed to a program with a budget of a couple of hundred billion Naira. Finally, the fact remains that removing subsidies that benefits a large number of the poor and pouring the funds into uncertain and non-everyday-man projects is a waste of funds. The average worker benefits from the subsidy each and everyday when he/she takes a taxi to work. He does not get the same benefits when the money is shifted to a program only used by a small proportion of the population. The funds would also contribute less to the economy than if they had remain as subsidies. It is called robbing Peter to pay Paul. billante: SURE-P Approved Projects For 2012/2013 |

Feel Fasehun? Do u think we would have known about his interest in a N2.4b contract if Lai Mohammed had not exposed it. With the way Fasehun was suddenly siding eith GEJ his UPN was a diabolical move to steal elections fo r GEJ in 2015 like OBJ did in 2003. Fasheun was being used as a pawn by GEJ but they lost woefully!!! Vado: I feel fasheun on this one. I mean shoutout to the likes of fashola, rochas, oshiomole, amosun, they are all reppin the party well but Lai Mohammed is a piece of shit with mouth diarrhoea. This is the same fella that contested on AD's platform for Kwara state Governorship in '03 and lost. He has since abandoned the state, no social-economic contribution whatsover than just sitting in lagos making noise up and down. People don't even know he's from kwara sef. Being an opposition doesn't mean yarning dust at every slight opportunitiy most especially when you can't get your facts straight. 2 Likes |

You are missing the point. Yorubas cannot afford to trade their freely elected gov. and representatives for locusts so we can say there is a Yoruba there. Tambuwal has done nothing for Yorubaland which is exactly the same as Bankole, except that in the latter case OBJ also stole elections all over the SW. And Mulikat was going to be GEJ's stooge anyway. GEJ is the problem. Surely you can see the difference between OBJ's locust gov. and the current crop in the SW. The lattet are not corruption-free but a great improvement. gunuvi: 3 Likes |

Yes, there is a problem. GEJ could not have been president without Yoruba votes but has acted with such callousness to the region. Why would any Yoruba in his right senses want to help such a man to another term? Does Fasehun think GEJ can be more beholden to him than OBJ? Shouldn't the respect and fear of OBJ count for something in his behavior to Yorubas? Instead GEJ actually thinks he can seize PDP from OBJ without consequences. Kids himself he is!!! As for reaching out to Buhari and others this would not be the first time and if it works this time fine and fine otherwise too. But Tinubu is not out there grovelling at somebody's political feet becos he wants a contract. gunuvi: 1 Like |

You talk as if the having a speaker is the same as having our due rights within Nigeria. OBJ was a Yoruba president and he illegally & arrogantly held on to Lagos funds. Tinubu broke his grip by taking the opprtunity to wean Lagos of overdependence on allocations from the center. Bankole was speaker - what did he do for Yorubaland, other than steal? Those crying over the behavior of GEJ towards Yorubas are the rentiers who are left out of the sordid corruption called Nigeria. In terms of good governance Yorubaland is experiencing a resurgence that had not been seen since UPN in the 2nd republic. OBJ stole elections for his stooges in 2003, what did those achieve? Guess who bested them all - Lagos, the one OBJ "punished" by witholding allocations. What we need to do in Yorubaland is take GEJ's misbehavior as opportunity to extend that indepence from the curse of oil to the entire region. gunuvi: Fasheun has bared it all. It is true that ACN used their own selfish interest to sell out many Yorubas. The speakership of Mulikat that we lost still pains me till now, all because of ACN selfish interest. 3 Likes |

Fasehun is going to lose respect if he keeps claiming he doesn't see the connection between his sudden romance wit Ijaws (even going as far as publicly supporting GEJ's right to a second term), his sudden NNPC 'interviews' and so-called revival of UPN. He is being used, he knows it but is playing along in order to get his contract. Problem is those using him have no intention of awarding any contract to him but will use him to try and divide the SW. eggheaders: 1 Like |

Hope you are not drunk - where did I cite "35,000" soldiers? Yes, Awo complained about soldiers in the SW, but I have never stated that number myself. I am not even sure which citation you are talking about. All you have to do is point to the reference that caused you to accept the number as fact. Dede1: |
