Al Makura is a huge disappointment. He has done nothing to uplift Nassarawa State. It's a big shame. I hope he will lose at the tribunal. |

Politics / Sure-p Is Working(intervention In Maternal Child Healthcare) by Louis88: 8:47pm On Nov 18, 2014 |
I recently put up a topic on the SURE-P intervention in our roads and bridges and how far they've come with pictorial evidences that have dates on them, This effort is put in in order to forestall the presumption that they were fabricated,and also all in an effort to enlighten those that may not have access to such information,and also for the gullible ones out there that have refused to see the light in the darkness. In that same vein i have decided to also beam the search light on the intervention of the SURE-P in the area of Maternal and Child Healthcare(MCH). Now what has been done here by SURE-P includes the employment of midwives to set up mobile centers in rural areas to check on pregnant women,provision of medical advice and counseling on all they need to know to ensure a safe pregnancy and delivery,so as to reduce on the mother/infant mortality rate. Then also is the introduction of what is called Conditional Cash Transfers(CCT) which was done in collaboration with UBA Bank to ensure transparency in the exercise with its main purpose being to provide funds for indigent patients to be able to access treatments and drugs in SURE-P/CCT designated health centers. Also the organization of sensitization tours with medical personnel,in order to enlighten those living in the rural areas especially those whom ordinarily would not have access to such information on expected medical issues that arise in infancy stage and the processes to follow to seek medical assistance in such cases. All these programmes and many more i didn't mention have been rolled out and financed under SURE-P, so i guess i can confidently say that SURE-P is working. 2 Likes

Politics / Sure-p Intervention (road Rehabilitation And Construction). by Louis88: 5:09pm On Nov 15, 2014 |
I am very much aware of the fact that no matter the amount of good that you do everybody cannot like you or say well done to you,so bearing that in mind I decided to post this piece. The aim of this piece is to try and enlighten some who do not neccessarily have access to some of the information out there. This piece shows with pictorial evidence some of the achievements of the GEJ administration in the construction of roads and bridges through the subsidy reinvestment programme(SURE-P). The SURE-P intervention in Roads and Bridges has resulted in a number of significant turn-around in the pace of critical road infrastructure provision. For instance, Abuja-Lokoja, Benin-Ore-Shagamu, Kano-Maiduguri and the East-West Road Section 3 (PH to Eket) roads, have recorded appreciable progress following the investment made by SURE-P on them. The on-going strategic roads include, the Abuja-Abaji-Lokoja Dual Carriageway (200 km 75% completed) Benin-Ore-Sagamu Dual Carriageway (295 km 90% completed) Onitsha-Enugu-Port Harcourt Dual Carriageway (317km under construction), and the Kano-Maiduguri Dual Carriageway (510km 90% completed). In addition, the SURE-P intervention mandate on roads and bridges extends to ensuring the construction and completion of the 2km Oweto Bridge.

Politics / Re: Another Letter: Bayelsa Elders Say They're Not Feeling Impact Of Jonathan's Gove by Louis88: 3:34pm On Dec 16, 2013 |
This group may be right that the oil companies are not meeting up with their CSR obligations. Most of the road projects cited are state roads and you can't blame FG for not intervening. Bayelsa state receives huge allocations. They should put their State Govrrnment and LGA's to task. Jonathan cannot do everything for them. He is president of Nigeria, not Bayesa |
Politics / Re: BREAKING: Jonathan Replies Obasanjo, Says Letter Self-serving, Provocative by Louis88: 12:49am On Dec 12, 2013 |
Bukkyade: As far as I'm concerned, Obasanjo should not be mentioned in the same breadth with Jonathan. If there is no other thing that I'm happy for Jonathan, I am very happy for the new state of Enugu Airport. Ethiopian Airlines now fly directly from Enugu to China. Obasanjo did not give any attention to that Airport. It was dilapidated and was even less beautiful than the ABC transport park in Enugu. I will vote Jonathan in 2015 whether they like it or not. |
Politics / Re: Federal Government Approves N42bn For Roads Rehabilitation And Construction by Louis88: 11:43am On Nov 28, 2013 |
Bukkyade: You are right. I recall that Former President Obasanjo awarded East-West road in 2006 at the cost of 347B. He mobilised them with about 1.2B and that was it for years causing the contractors to abandon site. When Jonathan came in and wanted to take up the construction of the road, he saw that the money was too much and beyond the budgetary capacity of Feceral Ministry of Works. He had to move the road to Ministry of Niger Delta affairs under Orubebe for funding. Even that one is complaining of Funding. |

Politics / Re: SSS Traces N3 Billion SURE-P Money To Lamido's Cronies by Louis88: 1:08am On Nov 21, 2013 |
The hypocrisy of these Governors is mind boggling. They will steal money and come out to accuse Jona's FG. Is it not the same SURE P funds which the Amaechi led NGF is making noise about? How come Sule Lamido has the moral vertebrae to criticise GEJ of missing funds when he's actually the one who is evaporating this money. We are in trouble in this country. The same people masquerading as saints are the ones looting us dry. |
Politics / Re: Gov. Rotimi Amaechi Is A Lair, Okonjo Iweala Says by Louis88: 12:21am On Nov 21, 2013 |
trillville: As at 2010, when GEJ took over as President, the ECA stood at barely 5.4B. The 36 Governors asked for some money to be shared from the account and it was practically difficult for GEJ to refuse because he was still new in office. The end result was the further depletion of ECA to $3B. However, Between 2011-12, Okonjo Iweala was drafted to increase back the ECA from 3B to 10B. She also set up the SWF which was to replace ECA but the Governors fough against the move. As a halfway measure, Jonathan went ahead to establish SWF but retained ECA in the interest of the governors. 1 Like |

trillville: Of course Ameachi knows that the money is being shared to augment for the shortfall. His attack is simply meant to bring out the fact the gej's incompetent leadership has led to a shortfall in oil revenues at a time when Brent crude has being selling for about $110 and is bench marked at less than $80. That is About $30 per barrel should be entering the excess crude account every day. You easily forgot that it was GEJ that built back the excess crude account from about $3 billion in 2009 to $10b dollars in 2013. GEJ was the one who fought and established SWF for savings and investments for the rainy days. You would recall that $1 billion dollars was withdrawn from ECA as seed capital for SWF. If not for the greed of Amaechi and co, nothing would have happened to ECA. If they could shun politics and allow excess revenue from oil flow into SWF, it would help the future. 2 Likes |
Politics / Re: Amaechi Is A Beneficiary Of The ‘missing’ $5 Billion ECA Fund-fg by Louis88: 4:51pm On Nov 19, 2013 |
1025: What are you saying? The fact that you are an opposition or watchdog doesn't mean you should fabricate lies against those in government. The moment you attack a govt with accusations that you know are extremely false, you are no longer a watch dog but a witch hunter. How dare Amaechi accuse FG of stealing $5B from excess crude Account whereas he is the one who led other Governors to demand for payments from ECA in a bid to shore up allocation shortfalls? This is what I hate about politicians. They lie a lot just to score a point. 9 Likes |
Politics / Re: Fani Kayode Urges Nigerians KICK OUT Jonathan 2015 by Louis88: 7:03am On Nov 15, 2013 |
russellino: The rogue called FFK knows that his conviction for money laundering and corruption by EFCC for his misdeeds in office as Aviation Minister is wrapped up in the womb of time hence this ranting to seek attention of the FG. But it won't work. His matter is in court already. And he will surely be convicted. These are yesterday's rogues masquerading as activists because Jonathan resolved to do away with them. Who is Fani Kayode to talk about performance in the face of his dismal outing as Aviation Minister? Unlike Stella, FFK didn't as much as change one single seat in any airport talkess of remodelling a single terminal. He joined his brothers Borishade and co to loot the 100B Aviation intervention Fund. We know them and so we don't take their statements seriously. 1 Like |

Arobam: Pls dnt drag NOI into this. That woman hasn't done anything wrong. She is managing our nation's finances well. She knew ths situation will come up and that was why she packaged 2013 budget timeously in October 2012 and GEJ forwarded it to the national assembly. After GEJ presented 2013 Budget, it took those legislators over 5 months to pass it. And even when they did, they padded up the budget with all Sorts of capital heads. The essence of early presentation of the Budget 2013 was to avoid this delay in implementation. But the lawmakers defeated this essence due to the late passage and have turned round to criticise implementation. Hypocrites! |

The last time I was in kogi which was about a month ago I heard about the ongoing strike,but then labour strikes though it is not encouragable still it is not peculiar to just kogi state or even Nigeria at large.I also saw the Geregu power plant that was just commissioned by the president,quite an imposing layout,I also then saw the accellerated rice paddy and I hear all these projects have been undertaken by the FG,I really commend the ingenuity of this tour because now at least people have the ability to form first hand your own personal perspective on the performance index of our govt,really an innovative idea by Maku and his team. |

Sincerely, I must commend mr President for the way he handled this ASUU strike. Right from the first day it started, he has deployed subtle negotiations and diplomacy to seek an end to it. The climax of it all was his decision to meet with ASUU directly yesterday. I understand this is the first time a Nigerian President is engaging in such a direct meeting with ASUU. I can't wait to hear an official announcement suspending the strike. |

I commend President Goodluck Jonathan for exposing all the dirt that has been hideen under the carpet of govt for so long. Former heads of states failed woefully to address this endemic corruption in the system which has bedeviled national development. Expectedly, GEJ will come under heavy criticisms by those who benefit from the corruption in the system so I'm not surprised. |

This is what happens when you leave first generation octogenarians to speak on your behalf,the man is so set in his olden days beliefs that he refuses to see the error of his ways,they mistake mediocre ness for criticisms,the ACN governors that are known to spend thriftily on inconsequentials are now complaining because it has come to show me what you have done.but it's not Lai's fault anyway,he normally has to make such utterances so that he can seem to be still relevant in the scheme of thing.and anyway.
