INEC chairman is not an employee of the President. The President cant even remove him. He does not answer to the President. There is a reason they call it INDEPENDENT National Electoral Commission

Why not allowed the government of lies and deceit who have detailed information of the project to respond to the tweet?

Why base your response on newspaper publications which could be HALF-TRUTH?


FYI, this government is too fraudulent to be defended without empirical facts and figures l.

Good luck on your enterprise of defense.


“*Air Nigeria/Nigeria Air*

Ordinarily, it should gladdens the heart when plans were set to revive Nigeria air fleet for commercial purpose.

But critical comparison to other countries with national fleets has propounded these questions begging for answers.

One might ask why the rush to unveil a logo when there are no aircraft's, personnel's, websites and other functional apparatus on ground? Is this another gimmicks to score points.

*Time shall tell*


- Who are the owners of the *95%* equity?

- Why is the ownership shrouded in secrecy?

- Why is *5%* equity holder funding the business?

- Where are these fundings *$8m, $300m coming from? Budget? Borrowing*?

- Are the aircrafts under lease agreement? *If yes, for how many years*?

- If it's private investment, why would a *5%* equity holder determine the *name, logo and other trademarks* of the airline?

- Since it's private sector driven, why not adopt any of the existing airlines in Nigeria as the National carrier?

- Are there sinister motives? Sure! Time shall tell.

Facts that you may need to compare notes:

Other National carriers in Africa.

*Kenya*
Fleet size: *40*
Kenya Airways is *48.9%* owned by the Government of Kenya

*Ethiopia*
Fleet size: *100*
Ethiopian Airways is *100%* owned by government.

*Morocco*
Fleet size: *56*
Royal Air Maroc is *100%* owned by government of Morocco

*South Africa*
Fleet size: *47*
South African Airways is *100%* owned by Government of South Africa.

*Rwanda*
Fleet size: *12*
Rwandair is *99%* owned by the Government of Rwanda

*Tunisia*
Fleet size: *29*
Tunisair The company is *74%* owned by the Tunisian government

*Egypt*
Fleet size: *54*
Egypt Air is *100%* owned by the Government of Egypt

*Nigeria Air*
Fleet size: *Unknown*
Nigeria Air is *5%* owned by the government .

Even the British Airways was *solely owned* by the British Government until it was privatised in *1987*.

So, where are we?” - copied

good questions sir,

you will now see abracadabra answers to these question.
whose model are we following.
why will 5% holder be providing funds when 95% is not.
how can we know owner of 5% of this entity and we don't know the remaining 95%.
5% is the one talking &calling the shot while 95% is quiet.
and we say this is a proper business arrangement?

and we say it's not destined to fail.?

OK oh.

let us continue to look.

I'm even surprised the fleet are not on ground, company is not on ground and we say this is a proper business and we are unveiling.

pls has anyone seen products of even a company being uvelied without the product on stands.

but lemme be "patriotic"
continue the investment.

7years from now, I just hope it will not be helpNigeria

Donald95:
My dad told me that if I spread my hands to catch many things at a time, I will end up catching nothing,

There are more important issues pressing Nigeria than this Air nonsence, Fed government haven't implemented any solution to prevent Fuel scarcity which always come in December that will further lead to increase in fuel price the next year which will cause increase in goods and services for the poor man to afford.

We haven't seen a tangible solution to Fulani Terrorist/Farmers clash.

If you are observant, you will notice that power supply has drastically reduced

Our Economy is in shambles .

And President instead of looking at things that really matters, is busy chasing shadows.

I ask, Is it the dead or people that can't afford 2 out of 3 meals per day that will fly the plane or are they going to hang on the wheels to travel??

Aptly said.
no controversy.
for discerning minds.

I know where and why she said that.

she says it so they can prove her wrong.

but the truth is we are not yet ripe for this nation carrier.
let us create conducive environment for business.
if real biz are struggling under this pseudo-,recession, how much more a government fire-brigade packaged entity.

anyone with discerning and s biz astute mind knows this thing will fall.

but make we dey pray......

what of if we vote by bvn? this could work if the needed logistics are put in place.

UyaiIncomparabl:
Pure lie. Not all Men cheat. They're just very rare.

you are very correct.
don't believe all those lies of people who have no principle and have lost their honor

there are thousands of men that are faithful.
difficult to find them? yes.
but there are.

also there are straight -forward guys that fell due to temptation and had kept faithful since then.

After the finish flying their useless balloon, they will go to sleep at night and wake up the next morning to this fact: Donald Trump is still the President of the United States of America!!!

this is Trump supporters in UK doing a retaliation.

so Trump us still POTUS.
and I like his guts

Donald Trump fans have come up with a devious scheme to hit back at Sadiq Khan over the controversial Trump baby blimp.

They are crowdfunding for their own humiliating balloon portraying the London mayor – and have smashed their target.

More than £50,000 has been raised by the online fundraiser in just a week.




It is unclear if a Khan baby balloon will fly over London, or if it will receive permission from the Greater London Authority, which approved Trump baby.

Mr Khan refused to block the blimp’s approval – claiming that doing so would infringe free speech rights.

A celebratory message posted on the fundraiser read: ‘A truly MONUMENTAL effort by everyone who has supported, shared and donated! We’ve completely blown the organisers of the ‘baby Trump’ balloon off the park.

‘Unlike the Baby Trump team who plan to take their inflatable on ‘tour’, i.e using the money they raised to have a few holidays, fund luxury hotels and probably fly first class, we are putting ALL of the money into hosting a demo in Whitehall, called “Make London Safe Again” due to be held in August, where Baby Khan will flown into the London sky!

‘There will be mini ‘baby Khan’ balloons for supporters on the day (not from moonpig!) and we’re even working on a plane with an 80ft banner to take to the skies in our protest!

This is about putting as much pressure as possible on Khan and showing him that we don’t want him as our Mayor any longer!

‘We’ll be using this event to raise awareness of the soaring crime in London under Khan and be supporting as many victims of crime in London as possible.

‘Remember, the more money we raise the BIGGER the demonstration and more chance we have of removing Sadiq and can begin to Make London Safe Again.’

Earlier, the mayor revealed why he had allowed the protest in an interview on BBC Radio Four’s Today Programme.

He said: ‘I shouldn’t be the arbiter, as a politician, of what’s in good taste or bad taste, what’s important is it to be peaceful, and for it to be safe.

‘And, frankly speaking, the idea that we limit the rights to protest, we limit the rights to free speech because it may cause offence to a foreign leader is a very, very slippery slope.’

Mr Khan added: ‘The UK, like in fact the US, has a long and rich history of the rights and the freedoms to protest, the freedom of speech, the freedom to assemble.

‘Can you imagine if we limited freedom of speech because somebody’s feelings might be hurt?’

Daughter of the late MKO Abiola, Tundun Abiola, on Sunday said it was not byelection that former President OlusegunObasanjo got into office.

She believes that the former president was appointed by the then military regime to compensate the people of the South-West region for the death of her father – the presumed winner of the June 12, 1993 presidential election.

“Obasanjo was appointed the president, he was not elected president. We did not have any election in 1999, we had a coronation,” Tundun stated during an interview on Rubin Minds on Channels Television.

She made the comments in reaction to the declaration of June 12 as the new Democracy Day and the posthumous award of GCFR conferred Abiola by President Muhammadu Buhari.

Tundun, who is also a lawyer, commended the development which she said was appreciated by her family after a long struggle.

She, however, criticised former President Obasanjo for failing to recognise her late father for his contributions to the nation’s development.

The lawyer stressed, “When you know you were not elected, you know you were selected and just appointed president by the military, it is galling for him to have acknowledged a democratic process.”

“President Obasanjo and my father had a relationship then; so what happened in their lifetime continued even after my father was dead. He cannot bear the idea of Moshood Abiola – so he did not do it,” she claimed.

Jerusalem - Israel ordered the Turkish consul in Jerusalem to leave for an unspecified period of time Tuesday, the foreign ministry said, after Turkey demanded the same of the Israeli ambassador in Ankara over violence on the Gaza border.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan had also launched a bitter attack on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying he led an "apartheid state" and had Palestinian blood on his hands.
Israeli forces killed 60 Palestinians during protests and clashes along the Gaza border on Monday, the bloodiest day in the conflict since a 2014 war.
"The Turkish consul in Jerusalem was summoned this afternoon to the ministry of foreign affairs and was asked to return to his country for consultations for a certain period," an Israeli foreign ministry statement said.
Consuls general based in Jerusalem typically act as diplomatic representatives for the Palestinian territories.
Israel is under mounting international pressure amid calls for an independent probe into the violence.
READ: Turkey withdraws ambassador from Israel, US after Gaza deaths
It rejects the criticism, saying its open-fire rules are necessary to defend its border.
Netanyahu and Erdogan, a strong backer of the Palestinians, have regularly traded insults and the diplomatic row marked the worst crisis between the countries since a 2016 reconciliation deal.
Earlier Tuesday, Netanyahu hit back at Erdogan after he accused Israel of "state terror" and "genocide".
"Erdogan is one of the biggest supporters of Hamas, so there's no doubt he's an expert on terror and slaughter," Netanyahu said in a Hebrew-language Twitter post.
"I'd suggest he doesn't preach morality to us."
Turkey was once Israel's closest military and diplomatic ally in the Middle East but ties began to deteriorate when Ankara criticised Israel's December 2008 to January 2009 offensive against Gaza.
Relations then nosedived on May 31, 2010 when Israeli naval commandos stormed a Turkish-registered protest ship, the Mavi Mara, part of a flotilla attempting to break the Israeli blockade of the Palestinian territory.
Nine Turkish activists were killed in the operation.

wink2015:
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF NIGERIA INCLUDING STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT MUST ENGAGE THE PRIVATE SECTORS TO CREATE JOBS FOR THE MASSIVE UNEMPLOYED YOUTH IN NIGERIA.

Youth unemployement is the cause of this present day armed robbery in Nigeria.

Federal government must take the responsibility to create job for school leavers and graduate in Nigeria.

If you can not create jobs then be paying school leaver, artician and graduate.

Let Nigeria graudate be getting a social security benefit of N100,000 to N150,000 naira monthly from the government.

This will create a peaceful and secure atmosphere in Nigeria.

unemployment in Nigeria is something
haba we are witnessing so many evil doings at an alarming rate.
pls all this mouth and talk the govt is doing should stop.
there's is s reason economist put unemployment as one of the indices in describing a country.

I'm tired of Nigeria, truly I am

there was something really fishy in access bank acquiring intercontinental bank.
it made no sense to business/banking savy people.

just for the record, access bank was owing intercontinental bank lots of funds at that time.

hmmm....because election is near, OK oh.

I hope it's not to deceive.

because abandoning toad in Nigeria is very easy oh.....especially after election.

Some few years back, when OBJ said we are sitting on a keg of gun powder due to the raging and alarming unemployment asking the then FG to do something about it, it was like he was talking about some imaginary problem,

please please please THIS IS WHAT U GET WHEN U DO NOT TACKLE UNEMPLOYMENT:

Please those in places of authority should please do SOMETHING about it.

Its getting to a dangerous level.

please make the environment business friendly and create jobs, please please please.

akaahs:
In a sane society this man ought to resign his current position before going for that governortorial ticket

exactly

nah, I can't be intimidated,

condom, postinor, I buy.
the look on the ladies face, she said she doesn't have change
I said so what do u have,
I'm married so I can't let their look make decision for me.
my wife told one attendant, who was giving on man a look for asking for "a drug for sex"
"he said he wants.....abi u did not hear"

I'm a bit surprised.
they way the writer talks about business.
sir in business even when u do feasibility studies,
it may still go bad,
a new govt policy or regulation,
an alternative product which is not in the same substitute bracket (e.g nipost vs email),
a change in climate such as rainfall or drought,
external influence (imported vs local production).
change in taste or use.
business is still like giving ur best calculation a shot.
most true business men fail many times until they struck a successful one that stood well.
I have gone into business b4 so I know what I'm talking about.
almost all businessmen use the one that stood as a springboard to other business idea,
some fail, .
even Richard Brandson of Virgin Brand has his own share.
my opinion.
regards.

side point:
it's laughable that govt says its giving 2m to NTSC member for business,
meanwhile the ease of doing business in Nigeria is a "Jupiter task".
that money they intend giving can finish in 6months without any meaning full thing achieved

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo says the federal government will no longer fold its arms while miscreants create religious tensions across Nigeria –

Osinbajo describes killings in worshipcentres as the height of wickedness and reveals that the return of Jesus Christ is even closer than it was believed in the past.

According to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo who declared that the federal government will not allow miscreants to stoke up a religious conflict by making it impossible for anyone to preach the gospel or even for Muslims to worship in their mosques.

This report was released by Laolu Akande, his spokesperson,he said Osinbajo stated this at the inauguration of the headquarters building and auditorium of the Deeper Life Bible Church in Gbagada, Lagos on Tuesday, April 24. “It is not only a heinous sacrilege but high wickedness to kill persons in a place of worship.

WhiskeyTangoFox:
I think you misunderstand the fundamental factor that is causing so much emotional unrest. He didn't use those words in your quote. It's the effrontery he had to speak against the youths despite this administration not doing nearly enough to create an enabling environment that can empower the youth. No jobs, no significant skills acquisition programs, no protection against legal and illegal oppressors, yet we see young Nigerians leave to the diaspora and thrive massively, yet this government will be first to say they provided jobs in farms and thru N-power. Please does Yusuf or any of his siblings earn money from farming even tho they mite have access to capital? Does buhari own any business that has employed a significant number of youths or even encouraged them? Didn't lai mohammed encourage youths to become masquerades? Also, when have you seen a head of state speak ill about "a lot" of the youth from their respective countries? Even the hard working youth are constantly being harassed by SARS, Police and other authorities. This goes to underline why his media aides will go to extreme lengths to avoid unscripted interviews and Q&A sessions, because he lacks diplomacy and emotional intelligence, along with the abilities to express himself intellectually providing valid points, while avoiding trick questions that mite further reveal his incompetence. As a youth, how does the government support you, and how do they ensure that intended support gets to the targeted demographic without being diverted my polithiefcians and selfish individuals? Nigeria is blessed with creative and intellectual minds capable of achieving anything, anywhere. Of all the 180 million people, i refuse to believe, and find it insulting that a person of buhari's intellect was voted in to head the affairs of my country, our country. We need to right this wrong, it's not about who voted him in or not, the deed is done. We need to undo it and pass a message to the political elite that a new dawn is upon us, their recklessness and impunity will no longer go unpunished. They need to wipe away the impression that they are more important than us and remember their primary objective is to serve.

It seems u may have a different opinion so please answer me honestly, what remarkable, ingenious and effective initiative has this government put in place to alleviate the hardship and sufferings of the mass (especially the youth), also is it nearly enough to make a significant and sustainable impact to the lives of people?

Aptly said.

The President had no right to say that to the international community about the people whom his administration hasn't provided the enabling environment for them to prosper by the works of their hand.

it is all manners of molestation all the way; from tax collector, tax chaser, motor stoppers to money looters, and a hard economy.
its really appalling.

Let me list very few of obj achievement,1handset2efcc3icpc4nafdac5civil defense 6nddc7increasement of civil servants salary nation wide.mind you these organizations are Nation wide that created million s of job to Nigeria citizen s can this man and pmb supporters do the same by listing any of his project.the handset your pmb uses today is brought by obj.just imagine life without handset.

No need to mention all these sir,

1 is enough.

U talk of the rate of unemployment very low during OBJ tenure. men those period ...people has jobs....and with good pay.

I leave the open skies to tony momoh and his lies.

Considering how buoyant the economy during obj tenure was , how ill yaradua was, how unprepared Jona was, how pathetic PMB is, I was thinking a 3rd & 4th term should have been to obj.
