If the north burns to ground, Buhari can not win, most supporters are northerners

If Nigeria burns , there won't be a president, it'll be free for all because Northerners won't allow GEJ to remain there

and it'll go down in History that GEJ Ruined Nigeria's democracy with his incapacity / cluelessness

rozayx5:
lots of BH supporters on NL these days, people like you prefer Nigeria to burn to the ground so that Buhari can win election and rule the Ashes. But the bad news for you is he wont win.

Just after the new year I was watching African Business Report on CCTV and I ran into the news. As a matter of fact the project manager is a lady who said it was estimated to be completed around 8 years or so, but the had to employ possible engineering wits to cut it down. As a matter of fact electricity will be running out of that facility around July.
Compare that with the lack of political will in Nigeria, this project will be estimated to be completed in 20 years and 1 year would be used for ground breaking ceremony, another one year for unveiling of the project plaque, another 1 years to resettle communities, 1 years to move equipments on ground, by then it will be around electioneering period, then the President would commission the map of the projects - he'll get voted in for second term to complete the project.
I don't know where we got it wrong?

Nigeria truly needs a rescue mission. Missing money has become Hallmark of GEJ's administration.

baybeeboi:

I know one thing for sure GEJ and OBJ are both failures, between 1999 - 2007 OBJ squandered $16 billion in his giagantic power projects that supposedly entered the Guinness Book of Records as the biggest power project any country could ever embark upon. To help you understand how daft all the folks who have ran this country are, I recently bumped into a news on CCTV about Ethiopia's Grand Renaissance Dam, and I then checked it online.

The dam costs the govt. of Ethiopia $4.8 billion and it has an Installed capacity of 6,000 MW, well it's being constructed at a record time of 6 years and it is the biggest hydroelectric project in Africa currently.

If one extrapolates this to Nigeria, this project would be estimated to take 20 years and will never be completed. My point is all these past and present rulers are all failures. GEJ is the latest failure and has earned it real good. He had 6 years and should have corrected the power woes of Nigeria. I've critically looked at the power infrastructures we currently have and the privatization drive, we won't have stable power in the next 6 years, my earnest forecast, especially looking at the body language of politicians in Nigerians and how projects are being executed. Someone has to now accumulate the power expenditures under GEJ's 6 years to understand how much of a waste we have endured in this country, they run in billions of dollars.

For a country like Nigeria and all the wealth at its disposal, crude oil sales et al, we deserve a whole lot. It's like a rich friend sending $1 million to another friend in the US to get him an exotic car, his friend ships down a Honda Discussion Continues grin and tells his friend back in Nigeria to bear with him that it is the best he can with that amount. Just think about it!!

These politicians are all shitheads!!

Permit me to use this information in this thread with link below. This exposes so much. I'll acknowledge you.

Your questions 1 - 3 are saying the same thing. Why are you trying to mix different issues and confuse yourself. So from saying in your initial post that cassava is bad for our health you are now claiming that the issue is about market penetration. If you don't know be informed that government policies are meant to drive growth in sectors. If you don't know please be aware that Honeywell does not bake bread, his mill produces the flour that makes the bread and you can't forcefully instruct a mill owner to upgrade his multi billion machinery specifically designed for wheat flour to start making 20% overnight.

munex007:
I don't why this guy article is not put on FP is nairaland a PDP based forum?..Thanks op I'm a keen follower of your incisive and fact based article..

I trust PwC as one of the big 4 to do justice to the assignment and maybe they have since submitted the report to FG only God knows

These thieves are playing on the short memory syndrome of most Nigeria..Human being by nature forgets a lot..A lot of pressure group should keep shouting about this..I respect Omojuwa for continually tweeting about this..

This money is too much to just forget..Just 2 of this project will attract the world attention to Nigeria..

horlus:
Those policemen are just doing their work Mr Op. They have been doing that for years on the third mainland bridge protecting citizens from robbers. My best guess is they decided to take one poster each as a shade while on the bridge. Please let's mind the kind of information we spread around.

fail and fail out

SeverusSnape:
Are you the poster?

What is the meaning of your question?

Am I the columnist?

Bros read more. Cassava bread is already part of our staple diet and has been for a while.

http://www.channelstv.com/2013/12/21/nigeria-commits-4-3-billion-naira-to-cassava-flour-processing/

The Nigerian government is spending 4.3 billion Naira (about 27.6 million dollars) on the upgrading of small Cassava flourmills and processors.


The fund is to be managed by the Bank of Industry (BOI).

The Minister of Agriculture, Akinwumi Adesina and the Managing Director of the BOI, Evelyn Oputu, signed the Cassava Bread Fund agreement.

It is also aimed at providing ready market for Cassava farmers.

“As we speak today, six industrial corporate bakers and 20 master bakers produce Cassava bread regularly with at least 20 per cent high quality Cassava flour.

“Nigerians like this bread. It is healthier, tastier and cheaper and the demand for it is rising by the day.

LRNZH:
1. The Minister of Agriculture made this statement that money has been pumped into the failed policy. Judging by past antecedents of NOI, Aganga, Okupe, Moro...... GEJ's minsters are mostly liars.
By the way do you expect him to admit that the policy has failed?
Only the Agric Minister has seen 20% Cassava composite. Honeywell that produces it reports 5% and 10% cassava respectively.
2. No opinion poll or people were interviewed about their preference for cassava bread if it exists outside of Aso Rock
3. Youvr got to be kidding. Out of the hundreds of thousands if not millions of bakeries in Nigeria only 26 bakers produce Cassava bread regularly. Is that successful to you? It is not even up to a drop in the ocean.
Abeg stop defending failure and cluelessness.

joeyfire:
1. The Agric minister didn't say the monies have been released. Disbursement is more complex than you think. It is done in tranches and according to performance milestones. What does Okupe and Abba Moro have to do with this topic please?. Stay focused. The news article states that 6 industrial corporate bakers (which produce hundreds of thousands of loaves a day) and 20 master bakers who equally produce in large quantities are currently doing 20% BEFORE this government intervention. 5000 bakeries will be producing AFTER the upgrading of the cassava flour mills.
2. Stop clutching at straws oga. The government does not need to do a poll before it carries out a policy on taste of bread. The government carries out an impact assessment study which was done almost ten years ago. Chai !
