Jobless gang of desperate clowns. Always looking for attention by any cheap means. It is only in Nigeria that a goat eats his master's yam and takes him to court.

they are channelling their complaints through the legal means you're complaining. If they retaliate now, you'll call them terrorist

fashola wasn't wrong after all

guys guys we over a million here . why can't we gather together and invite gej for endorsement so we can get our own dollars on nairaland then we won't have to be begging people on this forum for business support. Nairaland is the most popular forum in naija and nothing has come our way. Abi Seun don collect dollars keep quiet? Hmmm I wonder

this man wants to share part of our largesse from the president. pls presido our stolen loot is meant for only us o. don't extend it to Ghana o. One big pastor for my area never get hin o share. so pls let it go round first. Thank your excellency

just one statement from buhari: I'll probe the military, they woke up from their slumber.
Gmb for life

this brings us to another topic:who is the most generous known pastor in Nigeria

My people, vote your conscience. Don't be manipulated. If your pastor says don't vote for a Muslim, ask him if Daniel served a saint; whether Modeccai did not serve King Ahaseurus and if Joseph was not a prime Minister under Pharaoh. This election is not about North versus South, nor is it Christian versus Muslim. It is about Nigeria and good governance. Don't allow politicians divide us. When they share money, they don't talk about religion. When they want donations from Aliko Dangote, they don't remember he is a Muslim. When they enter an aircraft, they don't ask the religious faith of the pilot. When their bosses are atheists, they don't resign from the job. When an Alhaji gives them contracts, they don't reject it. They and their wives go to Dubai to spend money. Dubai is in United Arab Emirate but they have no problems buying houses in Dubai. But when it comes to politics back home, they say they want to ISLAMISE you. Yet, some of these people were spiritual consultants to Abacha. Vote your conscience. If you want to vote for Jonathan, vote for him based on your conviction that he has performed in your estimation and not because he is a "Christian". If you want to vote for Buhari, vote for him because you feel disenchanted with Jonathan government, not because he is a Muslim. Say NO to bigotry. God bless Nigeria.

pls feel free to share! Good evening

even if she compete with PGej, she can't win.

don't believe the crowd you see in rallies. 80% of them are onlookers, bag snatchers, touts, beggars etc. If you slap your wife in the middle of the road in Lagos, you'll get that size of crowd

I hear say if person offend you and you curse am say God go do hin life the way Jonathan rule naija. He he go give you roforofo fight. na wao Jonathan Don finish

Thank God at least there is no where it's written on that report that he was corrupt or that he stole money. If umaru dikko could divert money meant for importing food to England and was protected by a corrupt country England, I don't see any reason why he should not be kidnapped. alams jumped bail abroad and was given presidential pardon here in Nigeria from a clueless government. which is better? Talk of double standard, America went all the way to Pakistan to kill bin Laden without telling the Pakistani authorities and everybody is hailing that move. Most people in Shagari government are still alive to tell us why there was no justification to that coup. they should start talking.

tit:
it is only a foolish person that will donate money to person who wants to earn more money than even our overpaid senators get!
cant they use the money to buy milk for their children?
anybody trying to get this scratch card is either a thief or a mugun!
this is how poor people make themselves poorer by donating their money to people richer than they are.

so are you saying that those that donated for Obama during his campaign are thiefs. I believe the best way to hold any presidential aspirant accountable is to contribute to his campaign. so if he doesn't perform in 4yrs we'll can ask him to leave. Jonathan is sponsored by the big guns in this country. and that makes it difficult for him to make crucial decisions without stepping on their toes.

with a president like Gej, believe me you'll appreciate Obj. what Obj achieved in 8yrs despite the fact that we were coming from a military era, Gej has not achieved 10% in 6yrs. We don't hear about efcc, icpc,nafdac, son, ndlea etc anymore. have they been scrapped? Governors were seriously under check. even Tinubu could not steal funds. SERIOUSLY WE NEED CHANGE!!!!

why does Gej get it wrong. Even in the civilised world the media is the biggest tool for corruption.

pls how frequently do you change the sawdust for the ground

by now Gej would have realised that he surrounded himself with failures

Tunagee:
this excellent profile does not mean he would be accountable in office. Most of our failed leaders have excellent profiles too.

like who?

funkiebully:

A CV should have state of origin, why is d crook silent on that

even if he's from another state, that cv is only perfect for logos . he's overqualified for ondo state shikena

Bayswater:
That's Fashola playing to the gallery again saying rubbish under the pretence of not being an economist. He has economic advisers, he could have sought their advise before displaying his hypocrisy. That a barrel of oil is now $65 does not mean the cost of producing it or bringing it to the pump will change. Pump price has not been reduced in the UK, usa and across Europe. His attempt at using a bushmeat seller's logic has failed woefully.

Even if we refine the crude oil here, the cost if producing a barrel of oil would still be more than $65 per barrel. Even the average cost of producing the shale which people consider cheaper, is above $70 per barrel. As long as we don't refine crude here, it would take months for us to see reduction in pump prices.

Our greedy oil marketers too will not allow us feel the positive impact even when they start getting oil at reduced prices, they would want to maximise their profit.

na lie price don reduce for UK and USA o

people let's ask boko haram where they buy there weapons from so Nigeria can also purchase from them

Kokorokoo:
APC would do worse if they had such power.

let them have it first and let's see

Henry120:
Even you knows this is not true.

Outside shagari, which president has funded our military more?

Forget about petty sentiments, and tell yourself the truth.

Anyway, abeg, transfer them. None in H.D?

Speaking with United Nations diplomats on Monday, 31st
January 2011 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, President Goodluck
Jonathan made this promise:
“If
I’m
voted
into
power, within the next four years, the issue of power
will become a thing of the past. Four years is enough for
anyone in power to make a significant improvement and if
I can’t improve on power within this period, it then
means I cannot do anything…”
Three years later, in January 2014, in anticipation of his
2015 presidential bid, the same Goodluck Jonathan issued
a six-moth ultimatum to power companies to hurriedly
address the power situation in the country. Six months
came, and six months went, and today, Nigeria’s power
generation and supply is at an all time low.
Fifteen years ago, when Nigeria’s democracy was still
relatively new, the People’s Democratic Party told
Nigerians that we had a 6000mw installed capacity of
electricity, and “within a year, this would go up to
10,000mw.” Fifteen years later, with over $50 billion
spent on the power sector alone, we are now being told
by the Goodluck Jonathan administration that power
generation in Nigeria has “increased from 3000mw to
4000mw.” With this inconsistency in question, it is clear
that instead of Nigeria’s power generation and supply
increasing and progressing under the leadership of
Goodluck Jonathan, it has gotten worse.
However, regardless of the inconsistent figures, let us
search our hearts and ask ourselves: has power improved
in our homes? Do we have more light that we used to
have? Or is the government spending our collective money
on invisible power generation projects, while quoting
fabricated power generation figures?
Sometime in 2013, a legislative delegation led by Senate
President, David Mark, went to inspect the Mambilla
Plateau, that hosts one of Nigeria’s hydro-electric
dams. With over N160 billion ($1 billon) spent on this
project, the delegation was expecting to find a facility
that had up to 2000mw generating capacity. Instead,
what the delegation found was that next to nothing had
been done on the project – the dam site had not even been
cleared; making the media speculate that the money for
this much-needed project had lined the pockets of
associates of the ruling party.
Earlier this year, the Federal Government again
announced that an additional N752 billion has been
earmarked for the power sector over the next few years.
In the atmosphere of this report, recent studies have
shown that due to the government’s inability to provide
light for the people, today, everyday Nigerians have been
forced to spend N796.4 billion of their own hard-earned
income to fuel their generators annually. What this
means is that over the next four years, if Goodluck
Jonathan is re-elected, based on his track-record (or a
lack thereof) of not being able to solve the power
situation in the country, cumulatively, Nigerian
households will be forced to spend $19.2 billion on fuel,
which is equivalent to N3.1 trillion.
Another 2009 study on electricity distribution among the
six geo-political zones in Nigeria showed that on
average, these days, Nigerians enjoy only four to six
hours of power supply per day. However, in 2009, the
Federal Government and the power holding companies told
Nigerians that of the 10 National Integrated Power
Projects (NIPPs), four had been completed, and six were
80 to 90 per cent completed.
More than 24 months later, and $8billion spent on these
projects alone, what do we have to show for it?
In this regard, it is time that as a nation, we begin to
ask ourselves: what has the president been doing with all
the money that has been spent on power generation since
he took office?
We must also question the significance of the President’s
statement, especially when he said that if he cannot
improve power within four years, it means that he cannot
do anything…
The results (or a lack thereof) have begun to speak for
themselves…

nice one . What do you expect after threatening to break dstv monopoly, SA cool down.
