TonyeBarcanista:
does this make sense?

Your post, you mean?

FreeGlobe:
Rochas is a professional con artist. believe anything he says at your own risk.

Are you even a female at all?

No lady has the kind of time you expend on petty issues!

Twins marrying the same man isn't commonplace, but it happens.

Their life. Their choices.

Neither is he complaining, so what's the fuss all about?

@TonyeBarcanista, were it not for differences in grammar and writing style, you'd have easily passed for FFK. You wail about anything and everything, everytime!

A good critic picks his moments, you on the other hand, have become so predictable. People on here had predicted that you'd conjure up epistles to flaw the appointments, lo and behold, you just made them seem prophetic!

Security matters are very delicate. You don't assign sensitive responsibility based only on recommendations. It's more an issue of who you know best, and can trust.

Information asymmetry may be why he didn't delegate such authority to a southerner. It may not even be regionally driven. Unless you have privy information on why he chose those people, you cannot say for sure.

I hate it when people posit on conjectures and hearsay!

cry me a river. With a large population, everything will be large in absolute terms. Imagine that only 2% of Nigerians import various goods from the United States, that translates in a whopping 3.4 million Nigerians importing commodities from the US. Assume again that each importer spends an average of 50,000 dollars per annum, 3.4m x 50,0000 = 170 billion US dollars from Nigeria alone.
That's some huge amount. Our population makes us attractive to every investor, add to that, Nigeria is rich by some standards.
It's normal that they feel the strain when such huge income streams are blocked.

If we had sensible enough leaders, such numbers should hand us leverage of some sort on these white folks, but for where, our leaders rather we kowtow to the dictates of the whites every single time!

Industrialise Nigeria and watch the eight world wonder unleashed! Or why else do you think those whites will rather give out any amounts to keep our best brains than allow them return home?

We are our own impediment!

I just pray that we get it right this time around.

I'm guessing they intend spelling out the 5 golden commandments to members:

1. Thou must be preposterous at all times!

2. Thou must see no good in others.

3. To be in the opposition means to be brutal, even if it means going against logic!

4. The government is your enemy.

5. To restle back power again, we must all be auxiliary nurses!

Stale. Still wailing whilst your brothers have come to terms with reality? You're late!

If you're not comfortable with the happenings in Nigeria, Ghana is not far!

And lest I forget, using such emboldened fonts as you did is offensive.

OP, much as you're right, labelling your VP as an ornament is the wrong thing to do. Where's your sense of duty and respect? Never belittle anyone in your bid to drive home a point!

mmsen:
They could develop their own industries and utilize their own resources.

But I guess it's hard to put people to work when they've become accustomed to collecting alms in the street.

And what exactly would you have them use to develop the industries? Water? Would you not rather be a beggar who gets alms than a king with no privileges, whatsoever? It's pathetic when, despite the oil and huge allocations, your people are as subjugated by your leaders and you seem oblivious of the fact. Yet, you're quick to point to other's beggarly status, how ironic!

I just don't understand you people. You receive more allocations than every other state, squander it with not achievements to show for, then turn around and point accusing fingers at those who receive meagre amounts in comparison for using their own share of the money to develop infrastructures.

Your problem ends the day you stop seeing others as the cause. If you cannot put to good use the amounts you are receiving now, there's certainly no way you will even if you got 100% share of the oil proceeds.

A wasteful person, is a wasteful person! Simple!

OP, do you not mean:

Kachichkwu
1. Fashola
2. Kemi
3. Enelamah
4. Audu
5. Fayemi
6. Amaechi
7. Malami
8. Danbazzau
9. Dan-Alli
10. Geoffrey?

I didn't number Kachichkwu cos his importance is immeasurable!

God guide you aright, Mr minister!

He may go on to achieve great feats, only Lord knows.

it's not sustainable, my brother. Make dem protest na, when the men that really matter, are there receiving portfolios in Abuja, Nigeria.

You're just a troll! I'll pass.

elopee3000:
oil money changing enviroments of whole northern state

What money would you rather changes it? Your blood's?

Today will go down in history as the day Nigeria made the first step towards dreamland!

Just one request, Mr President: let Ibe Kachikwu double as GMD, NNPC. This, I'm certain, would have been one appointment amongst many that you'll live to savour!

He seems a strong and dedicated man, full of character and is raring to go.

He's made too many positive changes at the NNPC already to abandone.

He should be your emblem of transparency!

HIGHESTPOPORI:
So a Northerner would now be appointed NNPC chairman,cos am surprised why Ibe Kachichkwu would be made Minister of State of Petroleum. The North dat doesn't have a drop of Oil would now held d NNPC and Petroleum Ministry,no wonder Biafrans wants out!

Don't fret over it bro, what you need right now, is brighter grammar!

. This has to be the lamest thing that I've seen all day long, today!
So the common sense proponent lacks common sense himself after all? What a revelation!

Like seriously? Look how this guy is hitting rock bottom all in a bid to be popular with the masses.

So Amaechi has to enter a public transport once a month to prove what exactly? How does him entering a public bus see to his effective performance? Person wey no go work, no go work, even if im enter molue!

Fash has to go without a generator to get the feel of having to stay a day without electricity?
Wow. The guys have barely assumed office for pet's sakes!

Fashola's pedigree precedes him, he need not go a second without a generator to prove that he will perform.

Besides, they live in GRAs where there are minimal power outages. So who says he cannot go 30 days without a gen.?

Someone should please remind Bruce that change is a gradual process and you don't put the cart before the horse!

. Those people too dey fear. They couldn't make just one valid point. So status quo should remain owing to fears that things might remain the same after all, how do you bring about change then?
Most nations got it right off trials and error. Not like this is an experimentation of any sort.

@ Ngeneukwenu

Miss Ngene, the wailers matter tire me!!

They know so little but yell the Loudest



*BTW*

All you crazies in my mentions, kontinu, today is not the day.... Today is Yoruba Ministerial Appreciation day..

LOL @ Yoruba Ministerial Appreciation day .

... where are the ignorant? Please come cure yourselves! OP ooo, these people used to think that only oil is lucrative, now you've exposed the little secret. Watch them litter those agancies with CVs like Deciduous trees in fall. Jobless youths disparaging someone rich enough to feed their generation!

MadCow1:
My brother..

The Portfolio is very deceiving to the blind.

Immediately I saw "Transport", My mind went straight to NIMASA first.. Then Aviation .. Then Railways.. Then Inland water ways.. Then Ports Authority..


You know say Nigerians only focus on oil.. Them no sabi where the real choppings dey outside oil.

You're spot on bro. I for one, have seen firsthand, the amount of money that there is in the NPA alone. Ignorance is blinding! Dem no go know...

... you come online, ridicule him, and then it's back to your tent, wherever u crawled out from. He, on the other hand, is a minister and with probably, your dad at his beck and call.
Remember that your rich uncle at the NPA? Amaechi calls the shots on him. So what again?

You're irredeemably myopic and skew-sighted if you see anything wrong with the merging. Enemies within!

Merging these ministries will make for efficiency and bring into perspective activities of ministries which hitherto cannot be accounted for. There's need to bring them under one umbrella for effective management and control in a bid to reduce cost, both financial and those that cannot be monetised.

Fash performed excellently at state level, I don't see why the assigned portfolio should be too much for him. If anything, it demonstrates the faith Mr president has in him and his abilities.

Dire moments call for drastic measures!

How ironic that most of them would wish it were their dad who got the very same portfolio that they deride. Some people are just senseless!
Where's senator Ben Bruce when you most need him? Please, go online and talk common sense into those lots!

Imagine, only one person is to administer NIMASA, NIWA, NPA, AVIATION, Railway and Road transport among others, yet, some people have the nerve to trash talk his job role. Lord knows I'll give anything to be him right now, only I wish!

It's all borne out of ignorance sha.

Amaechi must be laughing hard wherever he is now.

The future may after all, belong to the old with youths as these!

sandraokosun1:
ameachi would have been head on with naija delta, that could bring distraction 4 pmb, i think transport is right, we could have just left it at aviation since the mofos here dont knw how big it is. The pst usani is perfect a deviation frm river, delta monopoly. Fayemi is better in solid mineral he is a techocrat dat would help us unleash our solid mineral potentials which is important than foreign affairs of travel

Thanks for this! I thought about that too, but u just put a lid on it.
