NgeneUkwenu: Buhari wasn't president when factories in Ikeja began browning off and selling their facilities to churches.
He wan't here when 80% of SME died away and the rest went on life support.
Buhari wasn't president when landlords were being watched charging rent in US dollars and stores were selling in hard currency.
Buhari wasn't president when wheat farming collapsed and Cote d'Ivore overtook us in Cocoa production.
Buhari didn't destroy Iwopin paper mill or ALSCON in Ikot-Abasi, a single factory that at a point brought in 30% equivalent of what we got from oil.
Buhari didn't take us from net exporter of oil palm products to lazy importers of the same.
Buhari didn't make us importers of petrol and diesel nor is he responsible for killing of the textile industry.
He didn't destroy our forest resources or ran down power stations like Egbin until only three out of twelve turbines work.
People shout policy but there is no policy that can transform a 'post-war' economic environment with the snap of the finger and government should just tell the people that this thing is what it is.
Government also has to water down expectations on oil prices ever rising above 55 dollars because it is just not possible in the age of Shale and renewables.
This nation is cornered and it has no choice than to reform it's lifestyles and go back to work.
It has to reform it's justice system such that it can jail it's thieves and reward those who do things right. We are refusing to allow hardship nudge us in the right direction but prefer to explain our woes as a personal failure of Buhari to draft policy from sheer air.
They were trampling people to death on job queues before he came on board.
Where are your farms to save you from food importation or your refineries to save you from seeking dollars to import fuel?
Where are your schools to educate your children without sending them to foreign universities when you can afford it?
He isn't two years in control yet and I believe he deserves a little more understanding given the gradients of the point where he took over.
Buhari met all these things that way, plus a devastating war that devoured the nation from a region and we have the choice of working with him to restore and rebuild the country or allow ourselves to get us into false sentiments, take advantage of us to return us to the years of the locust.
In as much I as like what you have said with all honesty you have spoken well like an educated individual. Nonetheless, I will like to add that the #istandwithnigeria protest is not against buhari but the the whole government both past,present and future telling them that we are smarter than they think and ensure they start good governance now. We will no longer be deceived so they should all sit up

Deezia1: CHANGE YOUR MINDSET AND IDEOLOGY FOR NO OLD ROAD LEADS TO A NEW DESTINATION... OYM CALLS ON OGONI YOUTH
The Ogoni Youth Co-alition Movement (OYM) condemns in strong terms, the recent communal clashes, youth restiveness and related killings in some part of Khana Local Government Area of Rivers State, as such amoral acts can lead to developmental retrogression .
The OYM National Coordinator, Comrade-Sunny Bekanwah reintegrated that it is not more bigness that should be our goal. Thus, we must attempt, rather, to bring people back to... The warmth of community, to the worth of individual effort and responsibility... and of individuals working together as a community, to better the lives of the people and the Ogoni at large. If we must succeed, we must recognize that the community redevelopment is not solely the rehabilitation of housing as perceived but also include our value for "Life" and peaceful coexistence.
I am an Ogoni man, not because I was born in Ogoni but because Ogoni was born in me. Thus, it is my dream that Ogoni becomes a great nation with strong might. There are many things worth living for, a few things worth dying for, and nothing worth killing for... Therefore, what value does it add to your family and the Ogoni nation when we unnecessarily take the life of our brother and fellow Ogonian? It is shameful that we know the price of everything and knows the value of nothing... He added.
He further call on the Ogoni Youth to change their mindset and ideologies. He said; think of distinctive footprints. Insofar, as all things move forward and not backward, avoid retrogressive thinking, imprison negative thoughts, build a strong wall against negativity, be optimistic in pessimism and think ahead of time. Understand the time you have and know what to do with the time, for time can loose it essence with time (He admonishes).
No old roads lead to a new destination... Therefore, we must learn to tolerate and live together in peace as brothers or perish together as fools. Change your conception, for together we can face any challenges as deep as as the ocean and as high as the sky... He concluded.
It is too flippant that other nations and ethnic groups are celebrating innovations, and different developmental strides. While some of the Ogoni people and communities instigate and celebrate cultism and communal crises... To this end, i begin to wonder the kind of accounts or records of stewardship that some of us will give to our ancestors and the Almighty God... Of a peaceful and loving Ogoni nation that was handed over to our generation. The Ogoni Youth Coalition Movement hereby call on the communities and groups involve to give peace a chance.

bienteks: Hi from Turkey, Bienteks a family textile company in Turkey, Bursa city. If possible we would like to meet with serious companies in Nigeria and around for business possibilities. People come usually to Istanbul for buying. They don't know Bursa. It is very near to Istanbul and there is a road on the sea or ferry also comes. Production always in Bursa and showroom in Istanbul. Maybe people here can help us to reach true people. I search big players. Small companies not able to buy. Best Regards,

Enter obalende, stop at bonny camp, ask for walter carrinton street, enter the street and in no time touts will surround u. Ask any of them where german embassy is.
Sponsorship works as much as blocked account. Your sponsor just have to be a Good Resident/Citizen i.e have a good work, pay tax, no criminal records and have a good credit.
idemudian1: can someone help in the house?i dont know my stand any longer regards my visa status.i did my visa interview on the 23rd june.after the visa interview no reminder to fund my account.though i have funded my acct and confirmation sent to embassy.till now no message from embassy.so gurus in the house,what are ur advise and what is my position getting the visa.
if u av sent d docs already dnt expect reminder. is ur enrolment date close?
domex007: hello friends: status update: application denied. got my original docs from the embassy this morning with a denial letter. what do you advice? Tho they just saved me the stress of looking for money for blocked account cos it was beginning to give me headache...
sorry to hear that. share ur details to the house ur application date, course, degree type etc so u can be adviced on how to appeal.
It is obvious embassy will not do anything until DB sends them confirmation. Send the DB confirmation yourself is not enough for the Embassy. Got a mail from embassy that they are still in need of the confirmation from DB even after sending them the confirmation myself. This people really av trust issues.
