God dey!

Soon Buhari will arrest my aged mother for kworruption because she voted for mimiko.

If she's involved in corruption, why not?

OgbeifunErom:

StOla: :
I love Buhari.

A part of him we thought was lost in the military uniform has resurfaced.

I have always wanted a leader who would not just fight corruption, but will fight it with fury.

"Baba go slow" has now turned to cries of "Baba slow down".

I have stolen nothing so I fear nothing.

Bros this your comment is the best I've seen in a long time

The emboldened part of your post is priceless

Thanks

Nigeria is a lucky country and we must all rally round Buhari

I concur

RaptorX:
That was the silliest crap I have ever read on NL, and a bunch of illiterates were agreeing with him. It's laughable that the US needs to put spying gadgets on some used MRAP in order to defeat the NA, when they have their intelligence agencies like the National geospatial agency spying and monitoring even powerful countries talk less of Nigeria. Instead of them to be grateful for this gift, that is going to save countless life's of soldiers, they are all talking gibberish trying to sound intelligent.

Bros,

you know some simple things are way beyond some people's comprehension. You'd better indulge them in their Nollywoodish beer parlour analysis

maasoap:

lemonade: :
Ungrateful Nigerians are at it again. Complaining and wailing. O ga o!

You should have said ungrateful wailing wailers, ungrateful ipod youth.
Many developing nations would gladly accept such gifts. If they could get all of them running, it will go a long way in assisting the NA. Though I don't like the NA, they too like to massacre the defenseless citizens. Like Baga like Zaria.

About a decade ago, China bought a decommissioned Aircraft carrier from Ukrane. The towed it for about 40days, avoiding potential suspicious eyes of other countries and got it safely to China. China spent about 3years, practically rever-engineering and tunning it up. China refurbished the Aircraft Carrier as the first in their Arsenal, and today they recently built a second one from the scratch. China is will rival super-power countries

Ungrateful wailing wailers and Ipod youth you say? Idiotic youths I must further submit. I would have thought someone in his or her right senses will talk about an opportunity to reverse-engineer, modify and produce those vehicles in Nigeria, leveraging on nexuses that exist between the military and private sector, ressurrect/revitalize our Auto/Aerospace-manufacturing sector and increase our military prowess.

Ofornaira:
who told u that gej and dasuki lacked money to acquire the machines then? They had so much money to get those machines but the us refused to give them. Btw why is it that they donated the machines they are no longer in need of to us. Even the us representative was bold to mention that they donated them to us because they were no longer in need of them. Well, beggars must not be choosers. May God help us in this country.

Now the story adds up......according to your logic, should we infer that when US refused to sell weapons to Dasuki and Jonathan, both decided to divert the money to private pockets?

i waz thinkinh same

sunkoye:
can we do reverse engineering already?

omenka:

Bevista:
So, for the records, I'll remind everyone of the profile of the person indicted. He is a Northerner, a Muslim and a chieftain of APC.
---
But I can bet my bottom dollar that enemies of Nigeria (PDP/IPOB) are still going to come out with another vile rhetoric. Lemme guess - they are going to focus on the bolded claiming that it's just a smokescreen to get to Dasuki.
---
It is obvious these devils are going to stop at nothing to dissuade and undermine Mr President’s anti-corruption campaign.

omenka: Nah, they won't. I pretty much doubt they would be that silly. smiley

melvinjames: :


Who is fooling who? Only zombies would believe Buhari would probe APC members.
Buhari rewarded Mr Corruption (Amaechi) with ministerial position instead of probing him. Ambode told us how Fashola bled Lagos dry yet he got a portfolio, this story is meant for APC monkeys.

Chai!!! I was wrong after all. Sincere apologies Bevista.

ajebuter:
Bros, i just pity the traders there because i cant imagine how some are going to start afresh.

If you inquire, LASG will tell you its part of the story while the traders will give a counter view and you will find both guilty of one violation or the other.
I just feel that if there would be a demolition, let the traders be around for evacuation so the loss will be minimal.
Peace

Let me tell you a little story. My wife and I once ran a factory at Ajelogo Market. This was something we built from the scratch. Fast foward 3year later, I was informed one day that government intends to take over the market and convert it to luxury estates. My father-in-law who was then part of the exco of the market union, said the decision was to challenge in court. This was a land allocated to the founders of the market when the FG sent them out of part of Daleko market. Instead of the excos pursuing the court injunction, then some name throwing started, then confusion and days went by.

Government will definitely not play fair. They came to pull down the market on a Sunday morning. Now we went to court, decided on an out of court settlement, only to discover that we can only claim damages for goods in store. The structures and building belonged to government. Then we realized that it is only a less than a quarter of us that could make claims. Others were squatters and hangers on.

Trust me, the government have experience in this things. Thinking back, the mistake I think I made was not to have evacuated our heavy duty machines as soon as the notice came.

ajebuter:
Nope. but at least, let them evacuate

Whether, ibo, Yoruba or Hausa, we are all humans.

If the two weeks notice that was allegedly served to them is true, then they have little case. The problem in most cases is that government do serve these notices, but the collective are not learned enough to assess and analyse the situation very well. They in most cases are not well educated, will quote their links to some fictitious someone high up who they will go and meet, or links to Abuja and stuffs.......

thunder74:
It is not illegal structure. The shops were constructed by government many years ago and sold to the present owners.
This new government gave them two weeks notice to quit middle of last year December which expires 31/12/15 and the shop owners refused on the ground that the notice is short. I was told the union leaders were arrested.
I advised my client to remove his goods because this government is not used to obeying court order or follow due process and will demolish the shop at midnight or you will just notice strange fire but he said the shops are concretes roof.
The government or contractor wants to build new shopping complex. Came on the 31st December to demolish it, were resisted, they went back, came again, were resisted before they finally surrounded the place with soldiers, police, KAI, lastma and the eventual demolition.

Bros,

I am not sure on the "sold" part and I doubt which government will "sell" such to "traders". I have been a victim of government demolition (Ajelogo Market). Trust me the ownership of such places never left the government. The understanding between both parties are grey. Government would have dealt with "agents" in the past who would have "sold" the space (albeit, illigally). The shop owners are the looser at the end of the day

Secondly, these market unions are barely recognized in the structures of the Lagos State government, provided they are not aligned with the Iyaloja's structure. They are not registered under law. So they have no basis.

Thirdly, it's share wast of time to fight a lost battle. If this guys can access the agreement/contract between the state government and the market association, on which the market was transferred to them, they should go to court. That was what we did at Ajelogo

ajebuter:
Some of those shops belong to traders on holiday in their home states..

All is well...

.....and government should wait for them because they are Ibo and on holiday?

Itsekiriman101:
It's called urban renewal. The Lagos state Goverment must make provision for those displaced though. Whatever will be built there should be affordable to those that have just been displaced.

My exceptions to your suggestions are these;

1. Was that place earmarked for shops or the people just laid their wares and goods because it's a disused land?
2. Should government continue to be responsible for people that flagrantly disobeyed the law and resorts sentimental claims of having children to feed
3. Have you considered the illegal businesses and sharp practices going on in that area?
4. In urban renewal, government will pick the cost of legitimate business affected.

1. This mad man, I wonder who let you loose........
2. Premium times and wazobia reporters, what is the difference?
3. How can you expect me to answer senseless questions from you, You barely make the bar on capacity to reason, your premises are bereft or rational thinking, and your vile thought give you away as a loose cannon to be pitied.........

Rad1cal:
Clap for yourself shameless liar.

Does this look like wazobiareporters zombie ?



Pure hogwash. Attend to the question below or go hide your filthy head in shame.

TonyeBarcanista:
I followed the Blagojevich story till the end.

When FBI indicted him, his approval rating dropped to a record low of 13%. What does that tell you? Opinion leaders and even members off his Democrat party led the call for his resignation/impeachment and supported prosecution. The state House of Representatives overwhelmly impeached him. The Senate overwhemly convicted him and sacked him.

It is only in Nigeria that some people and their party will be defending corruption.

Don't worry, apart from corruption fighting back, people will probably need a bit of time to get used to the impact of the new change. It is important we collectively pursue this case to it's logical conclusion and all guilty jailed. A ripple effect is coming and we may all be more bemused with the depth of rot and corruption in the whole system

datigbogirl:

TonyeBarcanista: :

I'm not saying thaÞ GEJ has any hand or not(he has to speak for himself). What I am saying is that why are these men always trying to drag GEJ into their shame? Go read Dasuki and now Metuh. EvÉn if GEJ "gave him", that isn't a justification or good defence. He can be charged for conspiracy in defrauding the government, money laundry and other criminal charges. He's only indicting himself the more.

What kind of stvpid conspiracy? the President gave you an order and you want to refuse it? It's better he drahs GEJ into it as he might be given a soft landing as someone rightly said.

Yes you can decline an unlawful and wrong order. There's something called resignation; but in Metuh's case, he was not in the executive arm or legislative arm of government, neither was he a special assistant, so I wonder what "order" was it to appropriate and disburse funds from ONSA

Okies27:
. In as much as I hate kwaruption, this govt is entering one chance by arresting only PDP members. It baffles me that no pdp decampees n APC member is kwarupt in this govt that we all know. Well, make PMB dey very careful o before EFCC put am for wahala. I want the best for naija

This is not a sentimental venture. The primary basis of this investigation is the $2.1billion scandal. If any former PDP decampee to APC is culpabable, the arrested PDP members should or should have mentioned such a person's name

TonyeBarcanista:

Bevista: Apparently, they all think that if they can bring GEJ into the picture, then they may get soft-landing as PMB may not want embarrass the former president.
---
But in fairness to them, why should they be the ones taking the fall, when GEJ was the primary beneficiary of the looting?

Bros, them be small children? If GEJ tell them to stroll into sambisa forest will they oblige him? Calling GEJ cannot save them irrespective of GEJ's involvement. The law is very clear. Beneficiary of fraud and the main fraudsters themselves are all guilty. If I steal a car today and give to you, Police will arrest and prosecute both of us for the stealing. This is very clearm metuh knowingly participated as a conspirator(and beneficiary) in defrauding the government (going by his argument).

I think there's a part of our law (Business law case of Banigo or so) where you cannot claim to be obeying superior's instructions in carrying out fraudulent acts.

Metuh will crack very soon and start singing like Cannery.....

Rad1cal:
Zombies are never smart enough to know when to shut up.

Now justify:

the use of N189 million for tyres

N27 million for C-Caution triangles, fire-extinguishers and cables is to cost N27m.

N30m for the purchase of tool boxes, car jacks, and diagnostic machines for the Presidency’s bulletproof cars.

N764+ for recreational activities.

N39.8m for the purchase of an unspecified number of 200 amps, 100 amps and 60 amps Mercedes Benz batteries for bulletproof vehicles

N3.6 billion for BMW cars. and a host of terrible figures loaded on that Budget of fraud.


Tell us how they are based on strategic imperative, and in this case a departure to non-oil revenue alternatives and accelerated infrastructure development? You obviously do not even know what a budget is.......

You are indeed a shameless man only fit for the sewers

1. Clap for yourself. The nonsense you lifted from wazobiareporters now becomes your forte? you are simply a "dordos"
2. Unfortunately when dafties like you get to see numbers, you're overwhelmed and utterly confused. But let me humour you a bit. You are so empty to be looking for the strategic imperative in C-caution and stuffs, when the documents actually paints the big picture. Of course you will not understand it even if it is used to smack your empty barrel-head. From C cautions to cables to cars and what have you are just details of a wholesome........... I am careful not to come to a baseless conclusion on that since we are not aware of the details, magnitude and volume.
4. So let's see demonic budget as you call it. A budget that for this first time as in a long while allocate more to CAPEX, Works, Power and Housing – N433.4 billion; Transport – N202.0 billion; Special Intervention Programs – N200.0 billion; all these more than the traditional Defence – N134.6 billion, which used to command the highest allocation, anshows the strategic imperative and drift of the government, on rapid infrastructure drive and diversification of the economy. Where expected revenue from other sources drowns that of Oil should tell you something about the drift and diversification intent

But to what do I know about your jaundiced understanding of budget? I am tempted to think I am discussing with a beer-parlour analyst

Rad1cal:
Shut your shameless mouth .

Your God increased their budgetary expenses by nearly 200% relative to 2015 in a period they are screaming austerity measures for the masses, yet Aisha Rice-tivist like you are seeking to put foot in mouth all in a bid to defend the indefensible.

What if the budget is passed as they were, will your pretentious God not utilize budget it.

Ok I see that an irritant rat like you tries to make attempt not to be a retaard. May be you should ask anyone with an iota of basic intelligence where you live, if there's anything wrong in increasing the budgetary expenses by 200%.....and in a period they are screaming austerity measure.........

Honestly your idiocy has no alternative. You argue like an empty brained insect. So you do not know that budgets are based on strategic imperative, and in this case a departure to non-oil revenue alternatives and accelerated infrastructure development? You obviously do not even know what a budget is.......

I have told you that you do not have the capacity to analyse the budget. You're aiming too high to even start from the bottom.

Rad1cal:
Aisha rice eating z****e identified. You are not talking to kids here so shove it.

How will your God present such a demonic budget to test the waters ? Doesn't that make the President and her team criminals trying to defraud the nation ?

Obviously you are far less than a kid at this rate. To think you will come up with some intelligent critique of the budget to make the debate interesting, no you dare not, when such is far beyond your comprehension. Demonic budget! hmn....... is that supposed to be a rational summation?

APCsupporter:
They should not grant him bail until after like 2 years and then re-arrest him 1 day later after granting him bail of 500 million naira

I love Buhari's style

I am surprised that most of the commentators here are ignorant or plain silly. Budgets are meant to be scrutinized and criticized. It is healthy for the society. That's what makes us better collectively. The system is evolving and those who prepare budget will know henceforth that they have to tightening their belt.

Secondly, it's not everything in the budget you must implement. you could realign your budget to reflect the realities on ground. What we have currently is a budget proposal and not the signed budget, so anything deemed not practical or beneficial can be expunged before a final signoff

I will imagine, something this basic is lost on many wailers, right from their leadership to the dolts on NL

trigar12:
Share some with me pls

1. That he started out as one of the ND warlord
2. He was Ibori's hitman......later special assistant on Marine matters (whatever that means)
3. He was at the front of leading communities to disrupt Oil companies operations.....till money is shared....

agabaI23:
You may wish to stop being emotional and say what you wanted to say. Tell me that what I said is wrong instead of making assumptions.

Values? I hope if you are put to test that your so called values will not burn to ashes. Those who have values do not brag about it. If you nothing wrong in the handling of this country at the moment, enjoy your upright values.

How do you brag about values? ridiculous. Pardon my assumptions (they are assumptions anyways) but you left me little choice than to base them on the leanings of your position.

danowena:
Please can someone tell me exactly how this man made his money? I am not beefing o o o... just curious and eager to better my life.

Bros, It's not beefing..............I know a bit of his antecedents...................................

folks4luv:
@Op. First define what it means to judge, den define what it means to rebuke or criticize then u will see that when Christ said judge not, he meant judge not. Judges at the law courts have measurements, they judge you by it, ever seen a law court rebuking a criminal? They judge.
Christians need to no d difference between dealing with issues and dealing with people. Judgement have to do with condemnation, but rebuke is not focused on the person but on what a person has done.
A girl had a foursome, I will be right to tell her those who do that will go to hell cause it is against God's laws, but I will be wrong to look her in the face and say "hey sis, ur going to hell", that means I have condemned her, wat if she repents tomorrow?

.....you look into her face and say "hey sis, you have just successfully turned back from the gates of hell"

agabaI23:
I have known him since his first coming. I don't know how old you are.
An effort to settle his differences with Babangida yielded no result. Forget the political reconciliation.

The first people picked up in his so called anti-kworruption war Dokpesi of AIT, Dasuki who arrested him in 1985, Ifeanyi Uba of TAN
Sule Lamido was granted bail on self recognition, why will Dasuki not be granted bail on self recognition?

1. Of course you don't know how old I am,....and humour me, what was it that was significant in his first coming? What differences is there to settle with Babangida?
2. Well I see that our appreciation of values are different, much more my take is that you probably have no value for probity, integrity and honesty. What is surprising to me is your concern with the people picked and not what they did, the enormity of it, how it affects Nigeria/Nigerians/ordinary citizens and the effectiveness of the system to recover the stolen funds and give appropriate punishment to these thieves.

Just like I said, I see that your values are different

Ok this just shows that Olisa Metuh has started a school of the Fellowship of the Dumbos

agabaI23:
In as much as he has a case to answer, if you know Buhari, you know he doesn't forgive. A resolve to pursue justice is stronger when it is backed up by malice. The arrests and reaarests are too dramatic that the elements of the 1985 arrest could be seen.

Dasuki betrayed Jonathan so it is kinda karma too...

....and you knew Buhari from where?

Mama Taraba wins again

Gaborone:
15. "I think"

16. "I will crosscheck with CBN"

17. In response to questions on devaluation : " Bad roads!"

18. "Credible members of bokoharam"

I have never seen such a thing in my life, yet, softwares in the form of e-paper tigers like mapet think they can muzzle me with insults.

Did your Daddy tell you this too or your mummy
