sarrki:Verily, verily, my brother. By the grace of God. |
sarrki:They just don't know. The only selling point of this man is his integrity. Sometimes I find it difficult why they can't understand this simple formula of Buhari. They keep disturbing us with Stimulation and Ovulation. As if that would put food on the table. |
sarrki:God will bless you for standing for the truth. We love Buhari because he loves us. |
baliyubla:And the people heard the call And they went to the streets described to them, And they shouted "Sai Baba." To show their love to Sai Baba. The kind of love that the looters will never know or get. |
lordkush:Aberration to only those who want a return to the days when looting is not seen as an aberration. |
Great man. But bro post pictures na! |
Jirate:A disaster to his (Femi Aribisala's) pockets. |
JasonScoolari:Whatever. Your lamentations never start. |
Davidgr8:Fine and good for agreeing you're in derailers' paradise! |
Davidgr8:It's not about over, between, about, around or inside Hausa and Igbo. It's about history repeating itself. |
(Read this article carefully and you'll see that the demonization of Buhari is historical, with the FFKs and the Omokris, and the new internet warriors fitly represented by the Atikulators and the Kanuists. It's history repeating itself) Jonathan’s Igbo Internet Warriors Are A Disgrace To Humanity, By C. Don Adinuba The Igbo Internet thugs who campaign for Goodluck Jonathan are an utter disgrace to humankind. They are, indeed, a strange species of homo sapiens. Maybe, they are a hybrid of homo erectus and homo sapiens! Their actions are hardly compatible with those of people who have what the French call l’amour propre, self esteem or self worth. A little over a year ago, Femi Fani-Kayode wrote a series of horrible articles well circulated in the media against the Igbo. Falling short of calling for Igbo extermination, Femi confessed his great admiration for Adolf Hitler’s Mien kempf, probably the most racist book in world history. All manner of people who called themselves Igbo Internet warriors were calling for his head. You would naturally expect them to kick against Jonathan’s recent appointment of Femi Fani-Kayode as the director of media and publicity of his reelection campaign, thus becoming the face and voice of the president, an Ijaw who has strangely been portrayed as an Igbo. But far from taking exception to this sacrilege, the self-styled Internet warriors, whom Oby Ezekwesili memorably calls Internet thugs, are rather now in cahoots with Femi! They quote him approvingly every minute. Why? Femi has a huge propaganda budget! Most of these Internet warriors are on his payroll, and their principal duty is to besmirch the integrity of Muhammadu Buhari, apart from raising cudgels, knives, daggers and guns against thoughtful Igbo people who raise questions about the propriety of their action. The Great Zik of Africa was fond of describing such irresponsible characters as knaves. The knaves enthusiastically circulated a forged hospital document alleging that Buhari has prostate cancer. Just before this forgery, they reported online that Buhari had fainted at a campaign rally and was rushed to a hospital even when the same characters were commenting on Buhari’s ongoing campaign stumps in different parts of the country! As Jonathan was about to visit Onitsha last week, they circulated a picture of a bridge under construction somewhere but mischievously claimed that it is the so-called Second Niger Bridge which becomes relevant to the president only during electioneering campaigns. The essence of circulating the false picture was to deceive their own Igbo people into believing that work on the mythical bridge had taken off in earnest. How some Igbo Internet fraudsters could have the courage to “419” or swindle their own people in broad daylight in order to please an Ijaw president and turn round to claim that they are the champions of Igbo interests remains one of the greatest mysteries of our time. It is revealing of the kind of ethics of the government in Abuja and their supporters all over Nigeria. It is also revealing of why some people in Nigeria and elsewhere think that the Igbo have too many Judas Iscariots, too many people eager to kill even their own family members for a mess of porridge. On a personal note, I am deeply worried about the enthusiasm of a couple of professionals and Pentecostal pastors in this forum to indulge in this fraud in the name of politics. They need be reminded in public that certain actions of theirs do cause tremendous and eternal violence to their personal and professional reputations, to say nothing about their supposed religious callings. They are advised to read up the idea of the scandal of perception in Catholic theology. Put succinctly, their utterances and actions as ordained ministers of God or equivalent could cause some believers to lose faith in God. https://m.facebook.com/ReportYourself/posts/10152545446912703 |
NaijaRoyelty:I also know you also. You are definitely a follower of sister Nneka Calistus Kanu. |
Destiny34:More reasons why your knowledge of Buhari is iPodic. Typical iPoBic mouth. When it gets to it, you pick race like sister Nneka Calistus Kanu. |
NaijaRoyelty:Hmm, I just dey pity you. You still don't know who Buhari is. |
In the voice of sister Nneka Calistus Kanu - 'It is not Buhari, it is Jubrin.' |
PDP should begin, or at least, join APC in the apology, for a problem they (PDP) created. |
gentlegenius:What would you do if you were the one - you debate you lost, you didn't debate you won? |
Yes, the Egyptians just want to infect Buhari with tunnel vision, white elephantiasis, lootocracy, backsliding, wailing syndrome and thug life instincts. |
A pro-Democrat Group, the National Democratic Front has lashed out at the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, over its insistence that President Muhammadu Buhari must be available for presidential debate ahead of the 2019 presidential election. The group likened the development to a drunk requesting for a marathon with a sprinter. NDF said the former ruling party failed presidential debate for 16 years and could not by any means drag Buhari into its level. Comrade Audu Awulu, National President of the group, while speaking at a press conference in Abuja, Tuesday insisted that President Buhari had during his three and half years in office literally debated with developmental projects and not media debate the opposition was clamouring for. According to Awulu, President Buhari has debated with projects, including those cited in geo- political zones that the PDP neglected in its wasted years. “He has debated with the war on graft, which was the largest sector of the economy under the watch of the PDP, its being dismantled is in part responsible for the withdrawal symptoms that has left PDP members and chieftains writhing in agony and having multiple visions,” Awulu said. The group, therefore, asked the PDP to bury the idea of a presidential debate with Buhari, whom they said was busy with meaningful projects that would better the nation. He said, “The latest of this obsessive request was from PDP’s National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Kola Ologbondiyan, who challenged President Buhari to a live debate with PDP’s presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar. We understand that the party wants the focus of the debate to be on critical sectors in the country. “The first impression we have of this challenge is that the brains behind the PDP have a wrong notion of what constitute a debate. Their understanding of a debate as part of a presidential election is apparently that of the raucous shouting match they engage in on local television networks, where the most strident person is adjudged the winner irrespective of whether the views they hold and expressed tallied with reality or not. “In the event that they are not aware, the leaked game plan of the PDP for de-marketing President Buhari specifically recommended that the party insist on a presidential debate. Unfortunately, rather than using the debate to gauge candidates’ commitment to moving Nigeria forward the PDP’s objective is to trivializing the debate and use it to further drive wedges among Nigerians along ethnic, religious and social strata. “What the PDP, however, failed to realize is that the debate took place long ago and it came out the loser. The real live debate began on May 29, 1999 and the PDP had the chance to be the first speaker; the PDP had 16 whole years of four tenures to argue its point and convince Nigerians that it should remain in office for 60 years like it once hallucinated. “In those 16 years that the PDP had to speak to Nigerians through actions it dismally flunked and dashed its own chances. They were 16 years of plundering, divisiveness, privatization of the state for individual benefits, failure to build institutions and systems while focusing on creating strong men that were more powerful than the society, they were 16 years of laying the foundation for the emergence of Boko Haram, IPOB and other toxic groups that today threaten the existence of the country. “President Buhari with the APC have had less than four years of one tenure to the PDP’s 16 years and in that short period had debated through actions and projects on why Nigerians must never return to the Egypt of the PDP. In that short period of time we have seen the economy being diversified even though Atiku’s voodoo economists seek to confuse the issue by misinterpreting the resulting lifestyle changes to imply economic hardship – the PDP will not accept that the hardship it refers to is the hand-out from slush money it had gotten the citizens addicted to hence the anger of those that no longer have access to free money, those who cherish the joy honest work are full of praises for the opportunities being created under the present government. “President Buhari’s debate in four years has seen the activation of systems that the PDP was too scared to implement in its 16 years because they know that these are instruments for curbing corruption – they claim credit for BVN, TSA and other fiscal responsibility tools that they never had the guts to implement since it would have curbed their ability to steal from Nigerians.” http://dailypost.ng/2018/11/28/2019-challenging-buhari-debate-like-drunk-asking-marathon-sprinter-ndf-tells-pdp/ |

Which work did you do that you receive N400 million from Dasuki? Sorry o! If na only Panadol you no fit buy I go buy am for you. |
gentlegenius:He has every right to debate or not to debate. But those he's been doing, what has it done for him? He lost even with the debates. It's the one he refused to debate that he even won. |
NaijaRoyelty:Sometimes I don't even know what to say. I don't even want to say something. You criticizing people for trying to fulfill campaign promises they've made. |
You are nothing without APC and the Buhari effect. Ungrateful fellows who bit the fingers that fed them. Now that you schemed yourself out of reckoning and winning, blame nobody but yaself. Elections will hold peacefully and you'll lose woefully. |
48] haven't u heard about a lady who did plastic surgery to look like Angelina Julie...a person who has a little resemblance with Buhari can undergo such surgery to look more like him...it's very possible. .let him clarify himself.[/quote]We're taking Nneka Calistus Kanu on her words. What 'she' said was cloning, not face swaps (if that is even possible) or plastic surgery. And did the girl trick others that she was Angelina Jolie? |
At least N121 billion of the N242 billion federal lawmakers approved for the 2019 general elections will be drawn from funds meant to cater for poor Nigerians. The money is to be drawn from the N500 billion allocated to the Special Intervention Programme (SIP), a fund set aside for the social safety programmes of the Buhari administration. The decision to divert the fund for this use was the brainchild of Nigerian lawmakers who picked on the cash as the best source of funding for the elections, presidency officials say. On November 7, the Senate approved a N242 billion virement for INEC and other agencies for the conduct of the 2019 general election. Virement means the funds are re-assigned to different subheads other than previously approved in the budget. While granting President Buhari’s request on the matter, the lawmakers ordered that N121 billion be sourced from the capital allocations of 30 agencies while another N121 billion should be sourced from the SIPs. Mr Buhari, in his letter to the Senate on July 17, asked the lawmakers to delete self-enrichment projects they smuggled into the 2018 budget to free funds for more important projects. The president also requested that part of the funds that would be recovered after the removal of the corrupt insertions be used in financing the elections. Mr Buhari had accused lawmakers of smuggling 6,403 projects of their own, amounting to N578 billion, into the 2018 budget. In a letter to the Senate in July, the president said he would not submit a supplementary budget to fund priority projects or the election budget. Instead, he urged the lawmakers to remove their projects so that more money could be available for more important projects. “Accordingly, I invite the distinguished senate to consider, in the national interest, relocating some of the funds appropriated for the new projects which were inserted into the 2018 budget proposal totalling N 578, 319, 951, 904 to cover the sum of N228, 854, 800, 205 required as noted above,” Mr Buhari wrote. Social Intervention Programmes To The Rescue But in passing the 2019 election budget virement, the senators acted contrary to the president’s request. Instead of approving funding for the election by removing the frivolous projects, the lawmakers directed the president to cut N121 billion from the special projects meant for poor Nigerians. A presidency official familiar with the matter said Mr. Buhari was ‘arm-twisted’ to accept the lawmakers’ action, and was disappointed that “lawmakers could even suggest that money should be taken from the poor to fund INEC”. The official said the presidency has remained quiet over the matter because it does not want to be distracted at this time with any crisis with the National Assembly. If the president implements the lawmakers’ resolution, the federal government will be left with far less cash for the N500 billion interventionist projects targeted at indigent Nigerians. Programmes such as Home Grown School Feeding Programme for primary school pupils; the Conditional Cash Transfer to the extremely poor; the N-Power volunteer Corps 500,000 jobs intervention scheme for university graduates; and the Government Enterprise and Empowerment Programme, which is essentially a loan scheme handled by the Bank of Industry may suffer. Idayat Hassan, the director of the Centre for Democracy and Development (CDD) frowned at the action of the lawmakers, saying it showed the lawmakers always act in their own personal interests. “It tells us the nature of politics in Nigeria,” Ms Hassan said “The politics is such that the interest of the people are never consistently followed. It is the interest of the political class that actually matters (to them). That is what is playing out.” Hamzat Lawal, the chief executive officer of Connected Development (CODE), accused the lawmakers of marginalising the poor. “Now the National Assembly is dipping their hands into funds for social programmes for poor people,” Mr. Lawal said. “They did not dip their hands into the recurrent expenditure that pays them salaries and bogus allowances, that of the executive or heads of parastatals. “Now they want to take something that benefits poor people. It tells you that democracy as it is today and the rule of law works for the elites, not for the poor people.” We Acted In Nigeria’s Best Interest But lawmakers said they took the decision with the best of intention and in the interest of the Nigerian people. Sabi Abdullahi, the spokesperson to the Senate, said lawmakers adopted the controversial virement proposal for two reasons. “We considered two things,”Mr. Abdullahi said. “One was the ease with which the virement descision could be taken. The other is the historical performance of the social intervention projects. “We realised that they (the executive) have never exhausted the allocation made to the SIPs in the past years. So we believed that by viring some amounts from the allocation made to it in the 2018 budget, we will not be infringing on the SIP Projects. “What we did was done with the best of intention and to find a workable solution for an urgent national problem. Besides, all the projects in the budget are targeted at the poor and other Nigerians and it is wrong to create the impression that the poor was targeted.” Laolu Akande, the spokesperson for Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, in whose office the implementation of the SIPs is domiciled, confirmed that releases for the SIPs in the past two years have been low. “The programme got N140billion out of the N500billion budgeted for it in 2017,” Mr. Akande said. “In 2016, only N80 billion of the budgeted N500 billion was released. So the total sum so far released is N220billion of N1 trillion budgeted for the programme within the two-year period.” The presidential spokesperson, however added, “The releases so far cannot be a justification for cutting the budgetary allocations to the programme.” When asked if the budgetary cut effected by the lawmakers will affect the implementation of the programme this year, Mr. Akande said that has yet to be determined. Buhari And The Social Investment Projects Launched in December 2015 as part of the 2016 federal government budget, the SIP is a social safety programmes targeted at eight million Nigerians, under different schemes. In his anniversary speech on May 29, Mr Buhari harped on the benefit of what he called the most ambitious SIP in Nigeria’s history. He said,”The Social Investment Programmes (SIP) has been created as a means to graduating our citizens from poverty through capacity building, investment and direct support. The major strategic objective is to restore livelihood, economic opportunities and sustenance for the poor across the country. “The SIP programmes and projects include: a. Home Grown School Feeding Programme – About 8.2 million pupils are currently being fed from 24 States of the Federation with over 75,000 Catering Staff engaged under the programme. b. The Conditional Cash Transfer has so far recorded over 297,000 caregivers and being trained by 2,495 Community Facilitators in 21 states. Less privileged Nigerians are now being paid N5,000 monthly stipend in 9 pilot States of Bauchi, Borno, Cross River, Ekiti, Kwara, Kogi, Niger, Osun and Oyo. Eventually the scheme will cover all the 36 states of the federation including the FCT. c. Under the Government Enterprise Empowerment Programme – About 264,269 loans had been disbursed to 4,822 societies in the 36 States and FCT, while another 370,635 are awaiting release of funds. d. N-Power Job creation Scheme – is targeted at providing jobs for unemployed young graduates and has so far recruited 200,000 youths while the next batch of 300,000 have been selected, verified and would soon be deployed across the 36 States and the FCT. Furthermore, 20,000 non-graduate volunteers have also been selected to kick off the N-Build programme in collaboration with the National Automotive Design and Development Council and the Council of Registered Builders of Nigeria. https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/297556-special-report-how-national-assembly-forced-buhari-to-divert-n121-billion-meant-for-poor-nigerians.html |

The Nigerian Air Force (NAF) has responded with heavy airstrikes directed at Boko Haram terrorists’ locations and vehicles after about one hundred soldiers were killed in a coordinated attack on a military base in Metele village of Guzamala Local Government Area of Borno State. A top military intelligence officer told PRNigeria that the latest airstrikes had destroyed a convoy of vehicles linked to Boko Haram attackers involved in last week’s raid on the military base at Metele in Borno State. The Boko Haram attackers had used rocket-propelled grenades, machine guns and AK47 rifles in raiding the military base where armored vehicles were destroyed, and a number of officers and men of the Nigerian Army killed. “The Nigerian Air Force is following the trail of the terrorists and has successfully destroyed about seven vehicles including gun truck and eliminated all the terrorists in the vehicles,” the military source said. “The air force deployed the Mi-35M, multi-role combat helicopters which delivers a more superior flight performance with high-precision weaponry in destroying ground targets. “Meanwhile, the aircraft also crossed the border into a neighboring country in hot pursuits where terrorists and stolen armored vehicles were destroyed. “The airstrikes took place in Tumbun Rego, Kangarwa and Mainok. There were also similar attacks hours after the Sunday’s attack. We expect the Nigerian air force to release air strike footage soon.” Meanwhile, indications have also emerged that most of the Boko Haram commanders and their foot soldiers who attacked the military base were non-Nigerians. Another intelligence officer told PRNigeria in confidence that the attackers were speaking Arabic, French and some foreign languages. The officer said: “Some of our soldiers who escaped after the rescue operation told us that the attackers dressed in military camouflage similar to the one wore by member countries of Multi- National Joint Task Force (MNJTF). We learned that the attackers were not Nigerians as they spoke in Arabic, French and other strange languages when they first appeared like friendly force before they started to shoot at Nigerian troops. “There is heighten suspicion that the deadliest attacks could not have taken place without collaborators probably within the military camp or the host community who could have been communicating with the terrorists before and after they stormed the locations. “The military may likely engage in a tactical maneuver for forceful reinforcements of ground troops and air components in the affected areas in view of new developments.” http://dailypost.ng/2018/11/25/boko-haram-naf-pounds-sect-metele-location-deadly-attack-soldiers/ |
