MayorofLagos:
As always,our lawmakers are not professional politicians and thus lack the vision to reflect critically on ideas beforw they introduce it into bills.

A mandate is compelling, when its not fulfilled then a penalty is incurred.

So what would be penalty if a candidate refuses to attend or participate in debate? Who will conduct the debates, what are the criterias of the penalty?
Why not keep this opinion until you see a copy of the bill.

The militants and terrorists employ guerrilla tactics which pose a challenge to any country in the world including France and USA... but u cannot overthrow a government through such means, that's just common sense.
And though it took 30 months to defeat the Biafran army, the losses of the biafrans outnumbered d Nigerians 5 to 1. Even by mere population, u guys are at a disadvantage. So instead of ventilating your frustrations, simply state how u will work around that conundrum
Peace not war.
The modern day war can be won by any side right now. Igbos have the numbers, the people and above all the money right now.
But we need peace and not war. I want a restructured Nigeria, enough of monkey is working and baboon dey chop. Enough of quota system and nepotism. Enough of injustice and marginalisation. We can function better if states are allowed to feed themselves.

I can see "les miserables" wailing profusely on this thread, still angered by the fact they lost the e-war over the detention of the judges and have taken to this thread to console themselves.

All iPod illiterates should understand this, we are in recession and a lot of negativities accompany such situation- hunger is one of them. So saying "there is hunger in the land" isn't something of a "criticism" under the current situation ye Bonobos.

Always find them falling over themselves spitting brown saliva all over the place when issues about Nigeria is on the plate, yet the say they want out- confused Bonobos. Wail endlessly about economy not doing well yet pay constantly it fails- madness I call it.

CareerDo You Have Difficulties Working With Your Boss? Try These by legendte(op): 2:29pm On Oct 10, 2016
Do you have a difficult boss? Try these 7 tips to win him over
A good boss can open up new growth opportunities for you while a difficult one can put your career at risk. You're lucky if you have a good boss but you can’t just walk away from someone you don’t go well with.
Here are seven ways to deal with a difficult boss and keep growing:
1. Don't let work get affected
Quite often, one tries to score with a difficult boss by working slower or taking leave. This approach backfires; you increase your workload and spoil relations with other team members. No matter how difficult your boss it to work with, make sure your performance is unaffected.
2. Be proactive
If you are dealing with a micro manager, stay a step ahead by anticipating your boss's requirements. Get things done ahead of time. This way you minimize the need for reminders and make him realize you are aware of your responsibilities.
3. Understanding your boss
Before trying to fix a situation, make sure there’s one. Evaluate whether your boss’ behavior is a personality trait or he is behaving under any pressure. This can make a difference in how you approach the situation. Not every boss is the same. Understanding why your boss does certain things can give an insight into their management style and you can adapt accordingly.
4. Patience is the key
Timing is everything when you have a conflict with your boss. Instead of taking the situation head on, it is always better to wait and discuss only when things cool down.
5. Know their triggers
If your boss has anger management problems, identify what triggers reactions. Avoid those triggers like the plague! For example, if you know s/he gets angry if you are late, always reach the workplace on time. Being mindful of small details that trigger certain behaviors will help avoid problems.
6. Be attentive and clarify things
One good way to deal with a demanding boss is to make sure you listen carefully as directions may come quickly. If you are unsure about anything, clarify by relaying back the instructions. It’s a good idea to always repeat deliverables that you are responsible for to make sure that you both are on the same page.
7. Put everything down
It is important to document interactions with your boss – requests, directions or criticisms - so you can go back to them if they contradict themselves. Create a trail of all requests and your output. If you receive a verbal direction, follow it up with an email to confirm.
5 things to do when the boss behaves horribly
• Stay positive
• Be a problem solver, not a problem maker
• Always be courteous
• Don’t take things personally.
• Don’t be a punching bag
If you still can't find a way to work together, maybe it's time to Find Better.

Forgery of Senate Rules: FG set to press fresh charges on Saraki, Ekweremadu individually

…Says case withdrawn to enable police question suspects, witnesses
By Soni Daniel, Northern Region Editor
In what appears as pyrrhic victory for Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki and his deputy, Ike Ekweremadu, the forgery case against them, which the Federal Government surreptitiously withdrew last week, is to be filed afresh by the same government.
However, according to findings by Vanguard, the government will charge the two Senate leaders individually as opposed to the previous one where they were jointly docked.
Saraki and Ekweremadu
A top Justice Ministry official told Vanguard last night that the case was primarily withdrawn because the Nigeria Police Force, handling the case, was yet to conclude its investigation.
In fact, as the source pointed out, the NPF is yet to interrogate Saraki and Ekweremadu and other officials of the National Assembly said to have masterminded the forgery of the Senate
Rules used in conducting the inauguration of the 8th NASS.
“You can see that under the Criminal Justice Act, the statement of the accused persons and all the witnesses are expected to be filed and it would have been wrong to have pressed ahead with the case when the police are yet to conclude their investigations,” the MoJ official pointed out.
“The federal government considered it appropriate to withdraw the case and conclude the investigation and attach both the statements by the accused and the witnesses before filing fresh charges against the suspects.
“We want to strengthen our position and present a solid case against the suspects as required under the Criminal Justice Administration Act,” the official told Vanguard.
However when contacted, the Attorney General of the Federation, Mr. Abubakar Malami, confirmed that a fresh charge would only be pressed against the suspects when the government was ready and declined to say.
“I will get back to you on the matter when we are ready,” Malami said.
The fresh determination by the government to file charges against the Senate gladiators, appears to have short lived their celebration of the initial abrogation of the charges filed against them.
The withdrawal of the charges had elicited nationwide commentary, fuelling speculations that the Presidency, fingered as the arrowhead of the case, had opted to make peace with the NASS leadership, which it fell out with as a result of their emergence last year.
Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, APC National Leader, Asiwaju Tinubu and other Nigerian leaders promptly lauded the move once it was announced.
But the optimism of the leaders appears to have been shortlived with the plan to slam the Senators with fresh charges.

PoliticsBeyond Peter Obi's Speech At Platform Nigeria by legendte(op): 11:20am On Oct 09, 2016
Beyond Peter Obi’s speech at Platform Nigeria’
ON October 9, 201611:00 AM/IN
Viewpoint/ Comments
By Poju Oyemade
When I invited former Anambra State Governor Peter Obi to speak at the 2016 edition of ‘Platform Nigeria’, I had not met him before. In fact, I only met him in person for the first time two hours before his speech on October 1. But his intervention on the waste that defines governance in our country today has touched a very deep nerve with many Nigerians, including me.
Indeed, I strongly believe that the political elite will be making a big mistake if they think the landscape will remain the same after such a revealing presentation. The pertinent question here is: Why is an accusation of waste of scarce public resources so significant when it comes to governance? As a pastor, I will say it is because there are parallels to draw even from the Bible.
In Luke chapter 16, verses 1and 2 (NIV), The Lord Jesus Christ told the parable of “a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions. So he called him in and asked him, ‘What is this I hear about you? Give an account of your management, because you cannot be manager any longer.’”
The import of that story is simple: Once it is established that a steward is a waster, he/she loses every moral authority to govern or lead. This is one of the hidden laws through which our Creator governs the affairs of men. Jesus just came to demonstrate that to us.
Peter Obi
There is something about God in His dealings with us, particularly with the ruling class, which can be summed up as, if the people don’t cry out to Him, He doesn’t get involved. However, once a legitimate voice(s) is heard in heaven God begins to show His hand in the affairs of men; showing to us as He did with Nebuchadnezzar that He reigns in the affairs of men.
Historically, the political class in Egypt went untouched until God said He heard the groaning of the people. We can find that in Exodus chapter 6: verses 5 and 6: “And I have also heard the groaning of the children of Israel, whom the Egyptians keep in bondage; and I have remembered my covenant. Wherefore say unto the children of Israel, I am the Lord, and I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, and I will rid you out of their bondage, and I will redeem you with a stretched out arm, and with great judgments.”
There are several other Biblical passages which reveal hwo and when God intervenes and the consequences for bad leaders. From Judges Chapter 2 verse 18 (…for it repented the Lord because of their groanings by reason of them that oppressed them and vexed them”) to Job chapter 34 verses 28 to 30 (So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted. When he giveth quietness, who then can make trouble? And when he hideth his face, who then can behold him? whether it be done against a nation, or against a man only: That the hypocrite reign not, lest the people be ensnared).
We can go on and on in the Scriptures to show that it is only when the people cry out that God gets involved by showing His hands. Even in the story of the unforgiving servant, it took others to report to the master for him to get involved. But the cry of wastage in governance is a cry the Lord responds to and it is not about the perfection of the one who cries. It is about the perfect timing of an accurate cry.
Therefore, it must be clear to every Nigerian at home and in the Diaspora that a sound has gone out on a serious abuse of public trust. The steward i.e. the political office holder must understand what a voice of accusation concerning wastage means when the Master of the earth in which we live in hears it. And to go back to the Biblical account, the unfaithful servant knew in very clear terms he was going to lose his position so he started weighing other options available to him.
His response, as recorded in Luke chapter 16, verse 3: “Then the steward said within himself, what shall I do? For my lord taketh away from me the stewardship: I cannot dig; to beg I am ashamed”.
The steward was left with two options: to become a digger or a beggar. It was very clear to the steward that the choices he had made while serving, especially how he (mis)managed the resources now had consequences. The cry of those who were at the receiving end of his misrule was now going to make him lose political power.
I hope all the office holders in our country (whether in the private sector or in the public arena) can hear what the Spirit is saying: the cry of accusation in the area of wastage is an accurate voice that changes the game. It is important that Nigerians make the adjustments before the Lord shows His hand in the affairs of our country and it becomes too late to change. God bless Nigeria.

We will put an end to this born to rule caliphate in 2019 by aligning with our southern brothers. A united south can defeat the north any day. I trust Tinubu to come up with a contigent plan by 2019.

seunmsg:
I have read so many comments about how Yoruba's are betrayals and why they should learn from the current crisis in APC not to trust and work with northerners again. Funny enough, nobody is talking about Oyegun's betrayal. Tinubu single handedly made Oyegun APC chairman. Oyegun stood no chance against Tom Ikimi but Tinubu stood his ground and Oyegun won. Ikimi angrily left the party in shame. So, why should Oyegun betray his benefactor?

Again, if aligning with the north is so bad, why is Oyegun aligning with northern cabal in APC to fight a southern brother, friend and benefactor. Is there no lessons for him to learn as well? It is no big deal for an Edo man to align with the northern cabal against a fellow southerner but it is always a taboo when a Yoruba man works with the north. Such double standard cannot bring any southern unity.
Karma is a bitch.
West were so happy to work against the first south south president. Now the architect of that betrayal is being served.
He don cook for Karma. Karma just want chop.
