Politics / Re: APO KILLINGS : Thoughts Of A Nigerian by Makzylopez: 10:49pm On Sep 23, 2013 |
Are we talking about destitutes or terrorists 4 crying out loud. I just went tru d post on kenya mall shootings and came 2 conclussion that the SSS and the military needs 2 be commended 4 such a timely intervention in foiling the plans of those evils operating a cell in Apo. I just imagine if kenya mall incident is replicated in Shoprite, just a stone throw frm the raided den of the terrorists, it would have been a National tragedy that we all would av questioned the competency of our secrity agencies...thank God it never happened. |

In a much as okukpe has been speaking for the government in recent time, his assertion on the above listed members of the ACN/APC is not far from the truth. Honestly, this elements don't possses any credential for good governance in this country. They have been tested and confirmed FAILURES. |
Politics / Re: Police/nscdc Clash: Jonathan Directs DSS Totake Over Investigation by Makzylopez: 3:32pm On Mar 29, 2013 |
GEJ has taken the right step cos the credibility and reliability of the SSS has for once never been in doubt.they have remained the last hope of Nigerians security wise. But my take on the incident is that no matter how the police were provoked, it didn't warrant them to take the life of any security agaent. Just hope the SSS will have it @ the back of their mind in the course of the investigation. |

It seems this dishornourable members have lost touch with realities. In the first place Niger-Delta Militancy and Boko Haram can never be ajugded same.while the former was fighting for resource control, the later claim to derieve joy in killing people like they kill Ram. Or does it mean that Boko Haram elements are in the house of reps ?. |

[b]Nigerians are ignorantly aiding international media to paint the country the way they like in the international domain. is not as if i support the development. but my little research has made me to understand that is a prerogative power exercised by heads of government all over the globe. for instance, US Democratic President Barack Obama has pardoned 16 people up to this point in his term of office. Among them are: *James Bernard Banks, of Liberty, Utah, sentenced to two years of probation in 1972 for illegal possession of government property.[21] *Russell James Dixon, of Clayton, Ga., sentenced to two years of probation in 1960 for a liquor law violation.[21] *Laurens Dorsey, of Syracuse, N.Y., sentenced in 1998 to five years of probation and $71,000 in restitution for conspiracy to defraud by making false statements to the Food and Drug Administration.[21] *Ronald Lee Foster, of Beaver Falls, Pa., sentenced in 1963 to a year of probation and a $20 fine for mutilating coins.[21] *Timothy James Gallagher, of Navasota, Texas, sentenced in 1982 to three years of probation for cocaine possession and conspiracy to distribute.[21] *Roxane Kay Hettinger, Powder Springs, Ga., sentenced in 1986 to 30 days in jail and three years of probation for conspiracy to distribute cocaine.[21] *Edgar Leopold Kranz Jr., of Minot, N.D., who received 24 months of confinement and a pay reduction for cocaine use, adultery and bouncing checks.[21] *Floretta Leavy, of Rockford, Ill., sentenced in 1984 to 366 days in prison and three years of parole for drug offenses.[21] *Scoey Lathaniel Morris, of Crosby, Texas, sentenced in 1991 to three years of probation and $1,200 restitution for counterfeiting offenses.[21] [/b] |

El rufai will not stop been funny. he must be out of his senses for proposing amnesty to boko haram. maybe he stands to benefit from it. how on earth did he think amnesty applied in the Niger-Delta can work in this particular case. like GEJ rightly said the other day, you can not offer amnesty to ghosts. maybe the advocates of Boko Haram amnesty can also advise the sect members to embrace dialogue, who knows that can make Mr. president to consider their proposal. |

my dear, this issue of police engaging in extrajudicial killings is gradually getting out of hand. the government needs to reform the institution psychologically and otherwise.

Politics / NNPC Releases Strategic Reserves To Fight Fuel Scarcity by Makzylopez: 12:02pm On Dec 06, 2012 |
Minister of Petroleum Resources, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke, on Wednesday, said the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation had released a lot of the nation’s strategic reserves in its bid to end the fuel scarcity currently being experienced in many parts of the country. She said the queues being witnessed at filling stations would have disappeared completely if not for workers’ union issues that came up recently. Alison-Madueke spoke with State House correspondents at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, on the sidelines of the weekly Federal Executive Council meeting. She said, “We, on the NNPC side, had pushed out a lot of our strategic reserves in a bid to ensure that people were not overtly put out in terms of fuel scarcity. And if not for this recent union issue, I think it could have been completely alienated but I am sure over the next few days, it will die down completely. We are doing everything we can to ensure that this Christmas will not be like last Christmas.” While stating that the fuel queues initially resurfaced because of the stringent subsidy claims measure put in place by the Federal Government, the minister said Nigerians could not continue to make case for transparency without being prepared to bear some of the hardship associated with cleaning up of the sector. She explained that while verifications were being done and the claims paid, fuel queues would continue to disappear from filling stations. She said, “Initially, the queues came out of the whole fuel subsidy issue and the fact that verifications of certain amounts and certain marketers’ claims were being made very stringently and this had to be done. “We cannot have our cakes and eat it. We cannot keep calling out for transparency and accountability and pointing at corruption if we are not prepared to bear some of the hardship that will obviously come when you are trying to clean up a sector. “The verifications were being done, payments could not be made by the finance ministry, and I think they have said that several times. But the verifications have been done, and payments are now being made. Like I said, the queues are actually beginning to go down.” The minister said the NNPC was doing everything possible to ensure that there emerged a level playing field for all interested marketers and operators. She said government had supported more indigenous marketers and operators in terms of setting up and also allowing them access into the sector, adding that the government intended to continue doing so aggressively. Speaking on her experience in the cabinet as she celebrated her 52nd birthday, Alison-Madueke said it had been extremely challenging and rewarding. |
