Wait ooo U mean out of an annual budget, some folks stole 3/4? Aisha should come clear on Halliburton and try visiting USA. Those who live in glass house shouldn't throw stones. We ain't buying these blame abeg. Tell ur hubby to get fuel for Nigeria and make N1 = $1. Don't divert attention |
It's an abomination! Both goat and pig need to be put to death. Secondly, the gods ate sending a message to the occupants of an abomination happening in that environment. OP by saying Enugu, it's generic name the exact place. God forbid |
“We are saying Nigeria can do without these items. And the truth is that the re serves are no longer there.” Currently, Nigeria as no forex to buy fuel so how this Voodoo economist think he can stabilise the naira when Nigeria is living in a fools paradise? The forex is as it is currently being subsidised. Allow it to trade freely with other currencies. You can't be subsidizing dollar and fuel and expect to survive as an entity. Lastly, no economy is run on propaganda but on sound economic policy. In the time of austerity like we find ourselves, it's time to boost government spending on the real sector which are construction, agriculture etc |
The last hasn't been heard of this Kogi issue. Lots of legal hurdles for proponents and opponents but good for democracy |
Inconclusive meeting Inconclusive government |
Buharionomics is when a du.llard wants to form IMF chief. This is what we get.... Job losses |
The effect will be felt by the new year and those shouting Sai buhari will soon be shouting STONE Buhari |
That moment when a dog eats it's vomit! |
ggirl4real:Sorry! It's said this way: I'll be right back NOT I'm coming When in essence, you are walking away. Another error corrected. Thank me later |
samtol4:Tell me which religious groups don't block roads? Living faith does, redeem does, mfm blocks etc on the lagos ibadan road. Coming to the north in Lafia, on Fridays, two sects of Islam block the road at intervals while on Sundays, the Catholic block the road all I'm Lafia, Nasarawa state. Same happens in Jos and kaduna except in Abuja have i not seen religious groups block roads. Though wrong, but they all have different reasons for blocking the roads. What I want to stare here is the army would have used maximum restrain to deal with this situation. Was tear gas used at first instance to disperse them? At what point is the second of life bullets permissible when dealing with violent civilian protests? |
Iranian influence will be bad I we have a Hezbolla kind of group in Nigeria that Israel with its military might has been unable to defeat because of the carelessness of burutai. What is power without control? If Burutai had restrained the soldiers or taken another route, this mess would have been avoided. The man without certificate has been quiet because there is no good luck or money to probe in this matter |
Did buhari declare the bullet proof car in his so called asset? Oya code of conduct bureau over to you |
This is suicide economics. It will lead to a black market of imported dollar from neighboring countries. High cost of spare parts. Those benefiting will make double profit by tagging the cost of their business on black market rates leading to hyper inflation like Zimbabwe. With 20k, u won't be able buy a car tyre.. Then you will have to park ur car. Traveling abroad opening tuition will be made almost impossible with business tour allowance tagged at 4k per a quarter making Nigeria another Cuba or north Korea. Those that voted buhari ehh.... Time will come the maximum u can withdraw from your account in Nigeria is 10k per day. They are experimenting it abroad. Nigerians can only transact a maximum of 50k naira worth of business per day with their local atm. Wahala dey... Loss of jobs looming |
What happened to the use of moderate force on unarmed civilians? What happened to the use of tear gas to disperse these folks? Is the life of burutai worth more than that of other Nigerians? Are some Nigerians more Nigerian than others? A judicial commission of inquiry must be set up to look into this. Burutai should not be Sen to be fighting a proxy war between Iran and Saudi Arabia in Nigeria. What I the role of the police in such situations....? Is Zarin under a state of emergency? Why use precious life rounds that are meant for soldiers in Maiduguri on unarmed civilians? Enough of these bad news from the north. Someone should take this to the Hague! |
With oil price heading towards 20 dollars per barrel, unpaid army of civil servants, high cost of fuel due to removal of subsidy... Then boom! Boko Haram will be child's play.. The CIA will be right with their prediction without lifting a finger cos since buhari came to power, it's been probe, Jonathan, prison, pdp wasted year, etc that we have been hearing. Travel and see that no single construction company has a job doing.. Importers can't import cos it's easier to carry coke Than carry dollars. Imagine someone swallowed dollar cos of buhari. U have money u can't withdraw more than 50000 once u are abroad. Banks don't have money in ATM. WHAT ARE ALL THESE POINTING TO? REVOLUTION |
CaroLyner:should u rather open ur legs for every and anybody? sex comes with responsibility. |
Ezemust:He is siawa. A Christian from tafawa balewa lga This apc has finished mast.. urbation.. Nothing is coming out again ooooo. ., the citizens are now experiencing pains ... It's time to look into Gej blue print with possible modifications. A socialist govt in a period of austerity can only lead to anarchy |
Twenty-three years after a military plane crash in which more than 159 officers lost their lives in Ejirin swamp in Lagos in 1992, then military ruler, General Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida (IBB) has finally spoken on the ill-fated incident. Babangida, in an exclusive chat in the maiden edition of The Interview, disclosed that the crashed aircraft ought not to have flown on that specific day, based on the issue of maintenance and number of flying hours already attained. Responding to a question posed by The Interview on what actually transpired on that day and if the crash was properly investigated, the 73-year-old former president said, “It was investigated. It was reported. But you guys had a mindset. Certain people had a mindset; nobody was interested in the report. But it was investigated. What happened in sum total was that the aircraft should not have been flying. There are mandatory stages, number of hours and maintenance. All those things that are mandatory were not there.” When he was asked on what happened to the people who authorised the plane to fly on that ill-fated day, Babangida said there was no penalty meted out, adding, “They ought to have been punished. I know that blame was apportioned. I wouldn’t know about the punishment. We investigated; we even apportioned blame but no penalty.” On why that was so, he simply remarked, “That is the Nigerian factor.” Responding to inquiries on who killed renowned journalist, Dele Giwa who died from a parcel bomb blast, Babangida said, “A Bomb”. When asked in the interview on who sent the bomb, he replied, “Would you ever think somebody could sit and ask a soldier or anybody, go and kill that kill that man?” Upon the interviewer’s response that “It depends....”, IBB was quoted to have replied, “It depends on who? If what you hear about other African leaders is anything to go by, you are right to believe that it could happen because of what happened in the case of the Mobutus of this world. But there is also one human being who believes in God, who believes you cannot take away life, who believes that God forbids you to do that, who believes that God created you equally. Somebody of that nature cannot, in all fairness order the execution or killing of another person.” When he was pressed on his relationship with late Dele Giwa, Babangida replied, “We were friends. Very soon, somebody is going to accuse me of saying he is my friend. I knew him very closely. I have correspondence between him and me. But that is not enough for you to believe that we were friends. What is enough is that I took a bomb and killed him.” When The Interview countered that “There was a general feeling that he knew a lot of military guys and knew more than he was supposed to know....”, IBB cut in...…”That he knew we were dealing in drugs and Gloria Okon. Somebody should have come out with it by now. He must have left some manuscripts.” When he was asked if he suppressed the investigation, the former president replied, “There was a report on that investigation if you may be interested to know.” On the interviewer’s remark that witnesses in the investigation were apparently hidden, Babangida replied, “No. Most of what you guys talked about was fictitious. Even one of the persons you guys said was involved does not seem to exist. Gloria Okon; she does not seem to be in existence. And then you came out with, what is the name of the other girl who was supposed to be my wife’s friend? She was in prison or something; you came out with that one. There is virtually no truth in it all. People are not very good in putting stories together to make it look credible. They only make it look fantastic. If you are dealing with an idiot, of course you can do anything. But you deal with a man who thinks a man who tries to rationalise”. On Saturday, September 26, 1992, a Nigerian Air Force Hercules C-130 (NAF 911) transport plane, carrying more than 200 persons, took off at 5:27 pm from the Runway 19 of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, with its destination the city of Kaduna in northern Nigeria. However, a few minutes after take-off, the heavy-laden plane, which was said to be carrying not just the military boys and girls but young students of the Nigerian Military School (NMS), Zaria, alongside civilians, relations and friends of military officers, developed a fault and nose-dived into the deep swamp not too far from the Lagos State Low Cost Housing Estate, Ejigbo to the Festac Town, Lagos, killing all those onboard. In the crash officers of the 19, 20, 21 and 22 Regular Courses of the Nigerian Defence Academy were badly hit. A list of 159 names of those officially listed as passengers of the C-130H was released on October 1 by the Director of Army Public Relations, Colonel Fred Chijuka. The list was made up of seven Lieutenant Colonels, 96 Majors, a Sergeant, Michael Bahago, two students – Mr. O B Oshodi, Mrs. M A Abu, and a reporter, Mr. Augustine Okpe. There were also the eight-officer crew including Alaboson, Mamadi, Squadron Leader J A Adeiza and Flight Lieutenant S O Adamu. The other men, Alum Wakala, Tarfa Saidu, W T Datong and A Soyemi in addition to 19 Air Force officers, were made up of 18 Squadron Leaders and a Sergeant, O. Jaja. The Nigerian Navy lost 16 Lieutenant Commanders, Ghanaian Armed Forces, five; Tanzania lost Major M S Mgonja while Ugandan Major J R Mulazi also lost his life in the crash. The Nigerian Army Education Corps lost a total of 19 officers, Infantry 17, Artillery 15, Intelligence nine, Signals nine, Supply and Transport eight, Military Police seven while the Electrical and Mechanical Armoured and Medical Corps lost four officers each. Others included Ordinance three while Finance and Personnel and Training lost two men each. http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/23-years-after-ibb-opens-up-on-crashed-hercules-c-130/227236/ |
Things did not go as planned at the African Investment Forum in Westminister, London which held the Dec 1 and 2, 2015. An heated exchange between President John Mahama of Ghana and former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo degenerated into open insults with President Mahama losing his temper and calling General Obasanjo “an idiot” and a “stupid buffon”. This was after Obasanjo openly accused the Ghanian President and his government of financially contributing 12 million dollars to Goodluck Jonathan’s campaign. He also accused President Mahama of blackmailing and collecting bribes from Nigerian businessmen in Ghana, buying numerous properties in Nigeria and South Africa. It took the intervention of Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni to calm tempers and usher President Mahama to a nearby room to prevent a bigger episode. The forum, which held from 1st to 2nd December was attended by African Heads of States including; Peter Mutharika President Republic of Malawi, Matata Ponyo Mapon, Prime Minister Democratic Republic of Congo, Ellen Johnson Sirleaf PresidentRepublic of Liberia, H.E. Thomas Boni Yayi President Republic of Benin, John Dramani Mahama, PresidentRepublic of Ghana, H. E. Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, PresidentRepublic of Uganda and H.E. Charles Gaëtan Xavier-Luc Duval, Deputy Prime-Minister Republic of Mauritius. Ministers, Private equity firms and investors were present to discuss opportunities for investment and development in African Economies. http://www.thewhistleng.com/two-fighting-ghanas-president-mahama-insults-obasanjo-over-accusations-at-the-african-investment-forum-in-london/ |
resty4:That's an upper cut on the person of the junketer ooooo In Tinubu voice, the honeymoon is over |
Junketer general of the federation. From there he will visit Nigeria for a state visit. During the state visit, he will sign technical lie ties with lie Mohammed from where he departs to only God knows where. Aso rock is vacant! |
Ban hijab. Reduce terror by half.. Simple and short. But with a Boko Haram sympathetic Daura secret service, I doubt |
When the Yorubas start writing open letters, that government is about to fall. I can't wait to see Buhari lead us into a REVOLUTION when he removes fuel subsidy and reduce minimum wage. These are the catalyst. Rev father kukah told us... Those shouting Sai buhari will soon start shouting STONE Buhari. Dele just picked the first stone |
Okay |
If buhari see fayose got dream ehh him go run
. Fayose my man |
Freegift75:Visit the north and see the wonders of hijab wearing women. They smoke, drink etc in this hijab. This hijab is a room and parlor for atrocities. |
This is what France gets for allowing the Mohammedans |
PA bubu should work and stop blaming the past. Govt is a continuum |
janellemonae:With an extended campaign period, wada may overstay his tenure. That is another problem. |
The period of substitution of candidates by political party is long over. This is a lacuna. The Constitution did not envisage this. Pdp has a case. It could lead to a constitutional crisis. Wat jazz can do ehh |
Buhari ooooo PA bubu living on OLD GLORY! THIS GUY LIVES IN 1982. BUHARI IS DOING TIME TRAVEL INTO THE PAST. Most times I wished Uhuru Kenyatta was president of Nigeria. Nigeria army abi northern army are living on the past. |
