@ Abagworo,
N31 billion Naira by Imo Govermor Okorocha to build Akachi Tower in Owerri - just for people who pass by the tower to remember there was a governor called Rochas Okorocha? When the rest of Imo state are cursing and abusing Okorocha over abandoned road projects that could have taken half of the N31 billion Naira to complete.


That reminds one of that rumoured Donald Trump's take on Africans.....
PoliticsRe: Pro-jonathan Elements Behind Renewed Agitation For Biafra - Senator Sani by longayink: 6:52pm On Nov 02, 2015

Of course, it is pretty obvious. It is much easier to be a secessionist than an opposition party. After all they rule Nigeria for 16 years, what can they possibly blame Buhari for?

[b]Is it only Biafra? Even Oduduwa people are agitating for a new country.

Senator Sani, a typical Fulani man is diverting attention with the same type of lies they used in lying Booboo all the way to Aso Rock?
Renewed agitation for Biafra started under OBJ administration. Radio Biafra was high on during GEJ administration and before election 2015.

Sani knows that the way Fulani soldiers restructured Nigeria is at the root of Nigeria's problems.
Sani knows Fulani-loyal soldiers created 20 federating units in once one region northern Nigeria, but created only 17 federating units in once two regions southern Nigeria. This is the main fraud of Nigeria. No federal country created new federating units using land mass as a criterion like was done in Nigeria by northern soldiers.

Through proliferation of new states in the north, the northern politicians take home more of Nigeria's revenues and command all in the polity.
This is not acceptable to the southern politicians.

Above all, northern Boko created by sharia-mongers has driven away too many southerners from the north.

Senator Sani is a typical tricky Fulani here, as he is only after diverting attention and fooling Nigerians.

Abagworo:
"Akachi" tower which translates to hand of God. From the top of this tower one can have a view of Owerri municipality from all angles. Government should encourage a private investor to invest in luxury garden around the tower for weekend grooves and events. Owerri already witnesses high influx of weekenders but with limited sceneries.
....and Abagworo with his governor must be happy to use of N31 billion Naira to construct a tower in Owerri, while in the last four years the roads scrapped by Okorocha contractors in the rest of Imo state remain uncompleted.

Abagworo tell your governor to visit, for example, Orlu, and see by himself the human sufferings owing to scrapped roads.

Old Owerri road scrapped in the last four years - pity the plight of tens of thousands of people living on both sides.

St. Joseph's Catholic Church junction leading to the road scrapped to join the International Market Orlu - a minutes rain floods the whole area. Parishioners often scoop water from the church to hold mass service. These are parishioners that voted Okorocha governor. Okorocha believes he is in a war against Orlu PDP politicians. But the politicians refused to field anther candidate last election against Okorocha.

Morning Star Girls Secondary School Orlu - may even close finally owing to only road to it scrapped;

Only road to IMSUTH, Orlu remains non-pliable since Okorocha became governor. Even students have demonstrated over that.

TESAC to St Joseph road - pity the people that live along the road.

etc etc.


Abagworo, three months ago you told us here that the new Orlu stadium should be ready by December 2015. December is next month.

A N31 billion Akachi Tower in the state capital while the roads in the state are messed up and grinding the state's economy, internally-generated revenue to an all-time low -

For decades, the southwest voted only Awo and other southwest presidential candidates who failed, until OBJ was "selected" AS USUAL by Arewa.

PoliticsRe: Buhari Can’t Double President, Petroleum Minister – Ijaw Groups by longayink: 4:10pm On Oct 08, 2015
If there is any Ministry Buhari is needed to assume its headship, it is the Ministry of Defense - given the menace of Boko. But the constitution does not allow Buhari to have any other job except being president of Nigeria.

But if Buhari has common sense, he would not have sounded the idea of being petroleum minister - given that he ousted Jonathan from the Nigerdelta as president and has been tormenting Diezani also from the Nigerdelta. Does Buhari want to show that he is a conqueror of Nigerdelta? Does he not know that people must see him as being very arrogant?

Buhari will simply refuse to appoint a Minister for Petroleum ...... that is not against any law! grin grin

He already has a N/Delta man as his NNPC GMD and doubles him as Minister of State for Petroleum.


I suspect the reason some people want this Petroleum Minister by all means is that they are trying to cover-up somethings in that Ministry, which will be impossible without a supervising Minister ... or when that portfolio is on Buhari's table.


Nigerians and corruption sha.
when you see evil condemn it. A president seeking to control oil revenues in Nigeria is evil. Nigeria is not Brunei. Nigeria is a democracy but Buhari seems to still take Nigeria as an emirate, with he president as the emir. Obasanjo succeeded in doing that because Nigerians were just emerging from long years of military dictatorship.

“By virtue of Section 138 of the Nigeria Constitution of 1999 as amended, the president shall not during the tenure of his office hold any other executive or paid emolument in any capacity whatsoever.”

It is clear from the above that the Office of Petroleum Minister has emolument to it. So a President cannot go to occupy the office of the petroleum minister.

THE NASS THAT MAKES LAWS, PLEASE DO NOT FAIL NIGERIANS ON THIS. THAT OBJ WAS PRESIDENT AND PETROLEUM MINISTER IS NOT AN EXCUSE. STOP EVIL FROM PERPETUATING ITSELF. STOP BUHARI EVER BECOMING PETROLEUM MINISTER WHILE SERVING AS PRESIDENT.

[b]But the arabic meaning on the note is simply translating hausa tribe which is the lingua franca in the north.Majority of the people who stay in the villages cannot read in English but in arabic.[/b]For example, twenty naira means Naira Ashirin in hausa which is translated as نايرا العشرين in arabic....this does not mean Islam.It only aid our locals to read and know the value of any new note printed.

[b]But if hausas and yoruba Muslims prefer it written in arabic,I expect other igbos and yoruba xtians tell to the gvt so that the inscription on the note in yoruba and igbo shud be written in hewbre[/b]w...
Highlighted.

I agree with you that majority of the people in the north of Nigeria cannot read English language - but place more premium on Arabic things - 55 years after Nigeria's independence;

but take note: majority of people in the old southeast region can read English, increasingly place more premiums on Western values - 55 years after Nigeria's independence;
so why then must both groups so different from each other remain FORCED together in One Nigeria?

You are not fooling anybody anymore. It's no point suggesting to have Hebrew written on Naira to please the Christians. Jews are not even Christians.

The only good suggestion is to have north of Nigeria whose majority chose Arabic language and sharia criminal laws to have a new country. Let the SW decide what its people want - whether to join north or to have a Yoruba country.

Nigeria can never form a nation. Commonly Shared value systems are the pre -requisites for nationhood. In the case of Nigeria, the value systems of the three major ethnic groups vary a lot. It is easier to have France, Germany, and Spain to form a nation, than to have Yoruba, Hausa/Fulani and Igbo to form a nation. [/b]
