The struggle is between the Southwest in conjunction with radical Islamists in the North and the rest of Nigeria. Even the Arewas youths and Elders don't want Buhari for a second term provided one of their clings the presidency.

The Southeast, South-south and middle-belt are ready to give the Hausa-Fulani another 8 years to prove their capacity to govern provided Buhari will not be part of it but the Southwest has another grand plan on insistence to supporting Buhari, who has no digitally synchronous brain nor the capacity to govern.

It's just a tragedy.

Muric will not say something because it's not traditionalists

N50,000 for trade or to boost business in Southeast?

I no go do nau.

docadams:
When will you kids use your brain. You see a lie on Facebook that maligns PMB and his government, you start sharing it like your life depends on it. You won't bother to fact-check. See how the hate for PMB has made you all mentally retarded.

its false.

This speech was made on the floor of National Assembly before Melaye even thought of defecting

https://www.thecable.ng/melaye-pdp-borrowed-n6trn-16-years-buharis-apc-11trn-three-years

Melaye said this while speaking at the upper legislative chamber on Wednesday.

The lawmaker said despite floating many Eurobonds, “there is no specific programme” to empower the youth.

He spoke in reaction to the rejection of Peace Corps bill by Buhari.

“About $5.5bn was borrowed from euro bond; what part of it will the youths of this country benefit from?” he asked

“About $1bn is to be spent on security and how does this affect the youth of this country.

“Without fear or favour, the Peoples Democratic Party, in 16 years, borrowed N6tn and this government in three years, has borrowed N11tn but there is no specific programme that will empower the youth.

“Also, N500bn was earmarked for the social investment programme of the federal government, but we have not seen any impact.

jumper524:
no doubt buhari has dissapointed but claiming he failed woefully is totally false and beside check the countrys reserve it about 47billion dollar..
You and i know 2019 is a two man race PDP or APC.. I cant imagine going back to pdp, its very obvious they would fail, they would definately fail with the current level of stakeholders who are guilty of onething or the other and thier poor level of opposition politics using ethnicity and religion as thier weapon..trust me if it remains a two man race till then, i cant and would never vote PDP..

Foreign reserve that is borrowed.

You forget Buhari has borrowed more money than PDP 16 years

I haven't heard interviewers ask their intending employees especially top managers and directors if they are thieves or not.

The criteria for presidency is competence, competence, competence. Which are lacking in President Buhari.

The constitution, laws passed by federal legislatures and independent institutions of the government are the checks and balances we need.

No need of a strong President who got all powers to imprison people without recourse to the law and the court.

senatordave1:
Your right but its not pdp thats the option.bring something better

The problem is Buhari.

We support Professor Osibanjo but Buhari, hell No. He can't decern Nigeria's problem let alone solve them. He is just out of sync with 21st century realities.

Nigerians of other ethnic nationalities are ready to give the North 8 more years for them to dump Buhari

If I may ask, why do churches and mosques block some highways during services?

Are traditional worshippers at low cadre of the society? If the government has remained mute to excesses of some churches and mosques, why should traditional religion be treated otherwise?

flames01:
Then continue being arrogant, boastful and disrespectful to others. I hope you won't complain again when the results of your tribe-wide stupidity hits you full in the face.

After all, nah your tribe them dey murder for South Africa for arrogance, not mine.

What you call arrogance others call self-confidence.

flames01:
The way you are spinning this rubbish makes you sound like an idiot.... Just an observation.

The issue isn't about eze igbo knowing me or not; the issue is about eze igbo displaying to the world that igbos are boastful, arrogant and disrespectful.

None of those attributes you listed is a crime. Why are you them devouring yourself because of another man's definition of himself which btw didn't threaten your quality of life, future and existence?

Calling for genocide is a crime against humanity and it should be prosecuted.

I have Satanic bible and your conversations allude to the fact that you either reasons or/and quote from its text.

Are you a Satanist?

buhariguy:
why will a president bribe lawmakers under APC to do their,
Is their job to remove thief saraki and elect one among themselves.
Point of correction,
Thief saraki is no longer the Senate president.

You may substitute bribe for lobby in this instance. However, Buhari lacks what it takes to lobby hence he can either use his cabals to bribe or institutions of government to cajole lawmakers to have his way.

When Buhari slept and never got involved in lobbying, The Senate elected Dr Saraki.

For your information, not all APC Senators are willing to vote against Saraki let alone impeach him.

Please, next time you quote me, stick with facts, Dr Saraki is Nigeria's Senate President, I don't deal with alternatives

Butterflyleo:
You on the other hand has failed statistics.

A factual statement is made in statistics when PROJECTIONS are made based on existing factual realities.

For example:

If in a room we have 1000 people and 700 of them say they would likely vote for buhari come 2019 this then means that in a room of 2000 people Buhari would win the votes.

Notice how a conclusive declaration was derived from a projection? Now relate that to what I said and see how you failed.

Now you see were you got it wrong.

"Would win" is different from "Has won"

He used "Has moved" not "Would move"

Butterflyleo:
You are wrong.

"Has moved" per statistics is also based on realistic projections based on realities on ground

You just scored 0% in statistics.

There is no statistical projection that goes without "shall", "will" "may" or "can". Go figure it yourself.

The "Has moved" he used was conclusive before the follow-up projections using addition.

Butterflyleo:
Those twitter users and others who have typed above me all scored F9 In English.

He used words like expected to add , is bringing, there are two turbines READY TO GO,

He now ended by saying IF WE ADD THESE THREE......

He is talking about what the additions would yield and not that it was already at 7000.

The BEDC simply confirms his first position of 4000mw.

Make una go school all of una go dey disgrace una self everywhere.

I think you are wrong. "Has moved" is in the past not futuristic.

Peacecore:
cry cry baby

Guy, Nigeria deserves better.

How many politicians or rather Nigerians are criticizing Vice President? Virtually None. Why? Because he is intellectually capable and digitally connected to keep track of events in Nigeria and to respond quickly to challenges.

Buhari is a bad omen.

Meaning Saraki is a better candidate.

PDP said the party is not going to field a controversial candidate that is not acceptable to coalition of 34 political parties that signed to support PDP candidate

It is Buhari's ineniable and constitutional right to seek second term in office but at same time it is a crime against humanity for Buhari to be reelected having a degenerated health and failing mental capability.

I thought former President Jonathan was joking when is mocked Buhari in 2014 pre-election session by saying Buhari can't even remember his phone number let alone keep track of events in the country. However, I now know it wasn't a joke but a reality.

But the presidency decided to bribe some APC legislators to either stay put or denounce the defection.

Why is the presidency bribing lawmakers to impeach Dr Saraki?

Bunch of lies.

The only difference between APC and PDP is that PDP steals and share the money up till the grassroots which helped in maintaining adequate cash flow and keeping the economy afloat while APC embezzles the Treasury through few connected cabals and chieftains thereby enriching few and leaving the masses and the economy suffocated.

Job welldone

It is resurfacing and not a new construction. The Ugwanagbo rail bridge wasn't damaged just dilapidated surface.

It is part of maintenance work being done on Enugu / Port Harcourt express road

This type of lie is treasonous.

Deception is a not misdemeanor rather a felony

Corrinthians:
Now I see some other very important reason why we must all join hands together to see to the deep entrenchment of the cashless monetary policy. It sure would have far reaching impact as per curbing the activities of these murderous beasts.

Besides that, it could also reduce incidences of extortion by the police, customs, etc. What a man intent on committing crime doesn't want to hear is one transfering money into their accounts. Such traceable movement of cash is taboo in their books.

Policies are the things we have no shortage of, implementation has always been the snag, especially given the high rate of illiteracy. The average market man or woman or that big food merchant on his lorry going from North to South or vice versa doesn't want to hear anything "electronic transfer". They just want to see their cash "koro koro".

Government should step up its game in ensuring the people of this category embrace these changes. It is the way to go.

I never knew you were wise but choose to side with mediocrities.

I am not against your support for President Buhari, I only want you to understand that Nigeria needs better than what we have now.

Congrats

Malaysia just recently elected a 90 year old president. Age has nothing to do with good governance. PMB is still better than all the fools that PDP has assembled to challenge him.

Prime Minister and not President.

There are no cabals in Parliamentary system of government.

Mystiquefia:
lolzz,, interesting!!! you mean she tied the knot with someone else?? The lady you made mention of, is she still a nairalander??

She deactivated her account as soon as her boy friend and co-moderator of romance section was sacked

dubemnaija:
Ogugua88 and seun never dated. It was ogugua and sexkillz that were dating then

He told her to abandon sexkillz for him which she refused.

Didn't you read her petition to google against Srun

Mystiquefia:
I Heard He's Married
You Can Try Me, Am More Handsome Than His Pics By Far..

He gave up on marriage immediately Ogugua88 disappointed him.

The dream of marrying a fine US based Igbo Nigerian was dashed.

I hope he fines his own Igbo Lady for Assurance

Reading opinions on Nairaland is like researching the level of uncivilization and backwardness of African Youths, a case study of Nigerian youths opinions on social media.

US Legislature shuts down government periodically and nobody accuses them of treason.

It's a pity when most politicians don't understand democracy and legislative powers.

Nigeria is doomed with these uninformed politicians

merit455:
The moderator may ban you for this....,she is Ngenekwunu in nairaland. That woman is a dog,fuxking Aso Rock men

Ngene is an Igbo man and definitely not a "she"

He is a confused political sycophant of defaunt ACN

johnaruson:
I love you Dr Saraki the senate 8th Assembly president.

8th Republic Senate President

How is this a major street in central town. The street no get name? Is like the photographer is mischievous and couldn't snap the stretch of the road rather a point of focus.

Moreover, it looks like aftermath of heavy flood and I can't see how the Governor is responsible for degraded living habits of dirty people.

By Nigeria standard of inner streets it got a pass mark.

engineerboat:
The anti-graft agency, EFCC, has responded to an allegation by an aide to President Muhammadu Buhari that it and other security agencies may have worked for the benefit of the embattled Senate President, Bukola Saraki.

Babafemi Ojodu, Mr Buhari’s adviser on political matters, reportedly made the allegation in an article.

The allegation that some security agencies were working with Mr Saraki became rife last week after the siege by the State Security Service (SSS) on the National Assembly.

While many Nigerians believed the siege was to forcibly remove Mr Saraki from office as senate president, others including presidency officials believe the SSS was playing a script by the senate president.

Mr Saraki has rejected the allegation and condemned the siege on the National Assembly. He also commended the sack of the then SSS Director-General, Lawal Daura.

The EFCC in a statement by its spokesperson, Wilson Uwujaren, on Sunday said it was not working with Mr Saraki.

Read the full EFCC statement below.

The attention of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has been drawn to a widely syndicated article by Senator Babafemi Ojudu, special adviser to the President on Political Matters entitled, fifth Columnists in Our Recent History, wherein he portrayed the Commission as a conscript in the devious plots by Senator Bukola Saraki to undermine the leadership of President Muhammadu Buhari. According to Ojudu, “From the shenanigans at the Benue House of Assembly, to the siege on National Assembly, the attack on judges home in the night, the so called barricade of the Senate President’s house, the laughable kidnap of Boy Dino and “his eleven hours on a tree’, the freezing of Benue and Akwa Ibom accounts all are scripted, produced and acted by Oloye Productions”.

The Commission takes exception at the attempt to impute false motive to its investigative activities. The recent placement of a ‘Post No Debit Order’ on some accounts in Benue and Akwa Ibom States were the culmination of many months of painstaking investigation activities. To reduce such activities to the level of a stunt in a real or imaginary script by any politician is outrageous.

It is important to state that the EFCC is NOT a party to the so called script by Saraki. Members of the public should disregard the innuendo in Ojudu’s article as it is unfounded.

How on earth will a sane, educated Nigerian buy into this irresponsible government template of crying Wolf while raping our democracy and at same time fooling themselves into believing Nigerians are fools and senseless.

Nigerians deserve better
