Responsible for stopping irresponsible idiots? How does this work? A person sees a train coming and still decides to cross the line. What do you do?

If that was to happen in where I am the director, the manager in charge of HSE will be fired. No excuses because that is fatality and the company's profile degraded for his/her nonchalance attitude to futuristic accidents.

The NRC should be responsible for whatever safety measures that are required to avert such occurrences.

Mad and Insane people need to be protected.

Is INEC a political party?

Objections to answering simple questions as a referee makes you compromised.

We should just stop this time wasting. APC, INEC, DSS and the Buhari Presidency merged and rigged the elections.

Trying to take back the cup from the Baboon after a drink is somewhat very hard but not impossible.

Please push this to front page for redress.

I saw their advert on Sunday Afternoon on Facebook and purchased a mini car refrigerator for M19,000 and they collected N2,000 for delivery to my location.

They are yet to deliver the goods, I was of the opinion that it may take 2 weeks to deliver as they maybe dropshippers.

How do I collect back my money if they fail to deliver.

I have all the particulars of the payment.

Imagine what I am hearing. My last born is 10 years old boy, he can repair phones, do YouTube, TikTok and Facebook marketing to a certain level and they want him to wait for them. By September, he is already admitted into a prestigious private secondary school.

So CGN is supporting buying PMS at N560 in the North with minimum wage of N30,000?

Increase minimum wage, provide palliatives and allow deregulation. It's not done the other way.

Chai, divide and conquer is becoming useless in this digital age.

Every of their steps has been exposed for the fraud they’re.

Biodun556:
Check your dictionary for the meaning of terrorists

Ipob is a terrorist separatist group

What do you mean by IPOB? You and your ethnoreligious gangs know you meant "Igbos", male and female living in Nigeria and the Diaspora.

Do you want to declare an Ethnic group of more than 40 million people as terrorists? Can you hear yourself?

Just get lost.

APC hates transparency. Lagos State Government was the first to fight against the implementation of the Freedom of Information Act, and then APC fought against BVAS and realtime transmission of Election results to the IREV. This is a dangerous trend and a danger to democracy.

Secrecy is the hallmark of Occultic groups and Autocratic regimes.

Bitter, anti-democratic party.

Venerable612:
I agree.

That judgement is delivered per incuriam.

As long as the NBC Act has empowered it to regulate the industry - it cannot have recourse to the court and enforcement agencies every time it wants to investigate noncompliance, impose sanctions and exercise its function.

That’s a rubbish judgement and should be upturned on appeal.

The regulation that gave NBC the oversight function should have stipulated the crimes, and defaults, and defined the boundaries of fair journalism with stipulated fines. NBC can not be the plaintiff and the judge at the same time.

MetaPhysical:
Baba Ahmed has a doctorate degree, does he not, and he is also proprietor of a regional university? Im trying to understand what influenced him to utter a statement like this.

I would expect someone like Simon Ekpa to issue such ultimatum, not someone like Datti. This is shameful!

It's shameful to you because if it wasn't for double standard, you wouldn't have any standard at all.

helinues:
Then who amongst the other candidates gets closer to that in terms of achievements in their respective state or their past position?

This time answer properly

You should stop using privilege as a component of performance.

The rich kid who has assess to the father's wealth has a resounding privilege the poor and average kids don't have and this doesn't make the rich kid the brightest bulb because in assessing comparison the level of darkness at point of inception and what was dispersed is the key to understanding capacity and competence.

The stock market performance is not judged by the value of the stocks rather percentage increase to the value of the stock.

The census should be suspended. We need a new regime to take up the planning, organising and the execution.

For them to have postponed the census thus far means they already have a preconceived figures but lack the process to statistically falsify them.

These countries don't have our interest at heart. If you don't know this, forget it.

They only care for what they can get out of our misery.

Is it a crime to aspire to be like Abraham?

For the new generation of Nigerians, this is a short political history of the man Orji Uzor Kalu

Orji Uzor Kalu: A Failed Second Term, And A Wobbling Presidential Ambition.

By

Nnaemeka Oruh

liliemmy@yahoo.com

No doubt the Abia State Governor Dr. Orji Uzor, Kalu was one of the best performing Governors of the 1999-2003 tenure. In terms of developmental projects Orji Uzor ranked amongst the best out of the thirty – six State Governors. It was an achievement conditioned by – I believe- a deep seated desire to make an impact on the lives of his people. Some however believe that it was a businessman-politician’s market gambit an assertion which Orji Uzor Kalu’s present stance seems to be underlining.

Whether or not he has an ulterior motive for his initial developmental efforts, in Orji Uzor Kalu’s Abia State, people began to feel the impact of Government in a more integrated form. Tarred roads emerged over night, Electrification projects were extend ed to many rural areas, Bore-holes were sunk and indeed poverty alleviation got a little boost especially from the DR ORJI UZOR KALU TRANSPORT LOAN SCHEME.

Critics will say that the type of tarred roads that the Orji Uzor administration provided us with are inferior especially when compared to the legacy of the Mbakwe era, - this is largely true –but one can easily muster the excuse that it is better to have the type Orji Uzor’s government provided, than to have none.

Indeed when Orji Uzor Kalu made public his intention to vie for the 1999 Governorship elections in Abia State, many people did not give him a chance. Most of us believed that his more educated rival Prince Vincent Ogbulafor who was a relatively better known man in the state would emerge victorious. But like a determined fighter and a dogged politician, Dr Kalu elbowed his way to the governorship position. He did not stop there, he made sure his praises were sung by people who saw his handiwork. So loud was the song that in 2002, a few months before the 2003 elections, Orji Uzor, was already confident of his return to the Governorship seat.

A FAILED SECOND TERM

It is not too early to assert that Orji Uzor Kalu’s second term as the Governor of Abia State has been marked by gross failures. Very few people in the state would claim ignorance that Dr. Kalu is no longer ruling the state. One is forced sometimes to say that Dr. Kalu’s second term serves as a compensatory period for his retinue of thugs. A period of aggrandizement for them all, and a callous watch on the exploitation of the masses who temporarily witnessed a new lease of life during Orji Uzor Kalu’s first term in Office .

In the Umuahia North Local Government, where the World Bank Housing Estate, Umuahia is Located, one witnesses the flagrant conjuring up of bills attached to shop ownerships, Business centre operations, bills on sanitation and even street number allocations. This is from a people who had paid the exorbitant and indeed fast increasing Development fee attached to plot ownership in the estate. The most Unruly thing is the manner of enforcing the payment of these bills. Over night, motor parks touts have been transformed into Government workers, and now parade the streets of World Bank, with keys looking for who to pounce on. Try and prove uncooperative either in paying the fees or bribing them, and they will descend on you with the fury of the hungry lions that they are. A case of disorder in the capital city of Orji Uzor Kalu’s State, an eloquent display of what follows the government of a crude businessman

Some may point out that the collection of bills mentioned above is the brain child of the Umuahia North Local Government Council. This may be true to an extent, but I have two questions to ask : Have we forgotten that the taxing of small time business premises (indeed retail shops) and residential buildings in th e state was the brain child of Orji Uzor Kalu’s first term?

Secondly, what has Dr. Kalu done to quell this ugly trend that is raising its head in the heart of his capital city?

Nor is that all, almost all the projects put in place by the Kalu administration during his first term in Office are crumbling under his very nose. The roads in Aba speak volumes. What has happened to maintenance policies and indeed to the execution of further developmental projects? Are we to believe that having secured a place in the governorship position of the state, that the young governor is now more interested in conquering new domains, hence his 2007 presidential ambition?.

A WOBBLING PRESIDENTIAL AMBITION.

Even at that, one witnesses a short sighted incursion into the presidential bid. A novice as Orji Uzor Kalu cannot afford to say that he is overtly sure of his ability to win the presidency come 2007. Despite the fact that he appears to be the only Igbo presidential aspirant at the moment (forget the comical show of one Chief Muscle) one knows that even with the pulling together of all Igbo votes, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu cannot see the presidency. Apart from that, Orji Uzor Kalu cannot even boast of being able to capture all the Igbo votes. Reason: Orji Uzor Kalu has a track record of many betrayals of Ndi Igbo. The most glaring one is this:

In 1999 during the Igbo convention, Orji Uzor blazed into the limelight with his assertion that it was high time an Igbo president was elected. 2003 was his target year, but some months after making that utterance, Orji Uzor was to recant it by endorsing Obasanjo’s Second tenure and asserting that it was not time for Ndi Igbo to produce the Nigerian president. Now he is aiming for the presidency, does he expect Ndi Igbo to forget so easily his betrayal and take him as their candidate.Besides; is it really time for Ndi Igbo to produce the country’s President considering Kalu’s earlier position? Is it that the time for an Igbo president must conform to the time Orji Kalu is ready to go for the presidency? One more question: Is Orji Uzor really serious?

I say no to the last question for in the manner of Chief Rochas Okorocha, Orji Uzor has emerged with only one intention: advertising himself, and getting compensated with a political appointment. Who would say he does not know that this is true?

During Chief Okorocha’s 2003 presidential campaign period, many believed he was serious, and actually began to perceive his as the Voice of the young Igbo generation, a hope for Ndi Igbo’s much desired hold on the presidency. I was sceptical from the outset. It was so easy to see through Okorocha’s charade.

Simply, I checked his antecedents and found no solid political structure to underscore a serious presidential bid. It did not take long for Okorocha to prove me right, that he was only one thing: Obasanjo’s political tout. The rest is history. A come – and - share position as an adviser to OBJ turned out to be the means of unmasking the masquerade Okorocha.

I sincerely think that Okorocha’s position is also Orji Uzor Kalu’s position. The difference between the two, which will soon become manifest is this: while Okorocha was matured enough to allow us guess the reason behind his action, when the time comes, Orji Uzor will embarrass us all with uncalled for excuses that cannot hold water, and that are worse still, self contradictory!

The problem with the young governor is that his excuses are bound to change depending on who interviews him at particular times, and whatever new goal he aims at.

Despite all these, Kudos need to be given to the young governor for his magnificent strides in Nigerian politics even if the common – people affecting strides were only witnessed in his first term in Office.

You are just an infant in politics.

Where were you when Tinubu was practically hiding inside Orji Kalu's mother's house in 2006/7 for safety from Obasanjo's onslaught?

He is lying. You can't declare your asset in the middle of the regime. The said assets were purchased in 2021.

His assets declaration was done in 2019 if any not in 2021.
