Flimsy, really flimsy excuse.
They should all rot in jail.

Nigeria should be called Nigeria.
The name suit us to no end.

A definite ploy to divert attention from main issues facing the populace.
He should run an all inclusive government, and forget all this obsessive
power stance.

A former military administrator in old Benue state, ran the state companies
to the ground. Uses the stolen loot to contest for Governorship election,
ran into muddy water and now crying blue murder.

Jang, what goes around, comes around.

I'm not surprised at your outburst, finally your insanity is taking a new shape.

Good idea, good thinking!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Possibilty? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Look at this Emulewu. Okoro feeling funky

U berra warn yaself oo or else I will have you inhaling Onitsha gutter fumes

Iti Bolibo

Now you have totally lost it.
Oya, continue your rampage of stupidity, it is inherent in you certainly.

The unrest in Jos is getting out of hand. The truth though remains that
if you get into a house through the window, likelihood of you getting out
through the back door is not far fetch.

It is wisdom to know others, it is enlightenment to know oneself.

Is it about the name or the resources?
Please keep your stupidity in check, please.

@asha 80
I need to ask you though, is the Njaba basin within the Njaba/Nnenasa/Umuaka axis?

@asha 80
I now understand your worries, and sincerely, they are well justified.
Really, the Eastern Heartland, does not need a replay of degradation
on going in the Niger Delta right now.

I just hope they are taking note (Government & Addax), before they
get drunk with their latest discovery. Their drunkeness from the Niger Delta
has not elapsed since the Oloibiri days.

What exactly is your point? I can't see the bad omen you are trying to paint here.

Lagosboy:
All of them be robbers , thief ,ole, Barrow.

Abdusalam is a silent rogue
OBJ is a hypocctitical crook
Odili is an unrepentant thief.
Alamco is a convicted fraudster

My brother, how this crooked by nature men continue to make the headline still baffles me.
They all had very good opportunity of impacting on the lives of the people at different occassion
but what happened? Rather, they left a trail of economic embezzlement, infrastructural decay,
poverty elevation, and all sort of plagues on the poor masses.

The evil that men do, lives after with them, torment them till they die.

@sky blue
You have done justice to this post. Need i say more?
It's unthinkable, really.

I support the statement of Jimoh Ibrahim whole heartedly in an interview he granted the Compass Newspaper yesterday.
According to him, the solution is for the Government and National Assembly, incuding Bankers Committee, to call stakeholders
meeting and reduce the number of banks to five urgently. They should allow the existing ones to merge and form the five.
The formation should be on equal terms. After then, dissolve their managements and set up newmanagement on merit.
No individual will be able to own any bank in Nigeria or have majority stake in any bank. The moment that is done, our economy
will work.

Financial institutions are very volatile. If you go to London, no individuals owns any bank. Who is the owner of USB or HSBC or
Barclay Bank? Where ownership is de-emphasized, financial institution can grow.

Politics of religion,
Religion of politics,
Politics of Nigerian Religion,
Religion of Nigerian Politics,

A deadly virus that has consummated the Nigeria landscape for as long as
i can remember. We simply overplay everything in this part of the world.

Personally, religion is nothing else but love to God and man.

He already got a job of wondering how he got USA to the state they find themselves now.
I mean, a job till he dies. He should revel in it.

The question really is: Do we really have a choice, since we find ourselves ''inside Naija''?

@poster
I don't get it. Do you need lessons on keeping relationship or what?

@Muza
You don't have to be sarcastic about this.
You could as well maintain a sealed lip. If you have experienced the pains
of loosing large chunk of money in a bank you entrusted it with, then you would
understand what people are going through daily.

What gets at me, is their temerity to hold on to depositors money.
Meanwhile the barrage of court cases does not even concern the
depositors, it is a ploy to hold on to the money, use it for their selfish
need. NDIC meanwhile claims the money is in their possession - doing what?
The most astonishing thing is that this court cases are even instigated
by the same cabal (the disgruntled failed bank boards) stopping the regulatory body from disbursing this fund.
Their reason? Greed.

Your utterances so far has exposed your miserable background
to no end. You have missed the train to Nigeria reality show, believe me. When you wake up from your bug infested

Same thin in London, a lot of folks eke out their living washing cars and making money, so, before you tell me that car washing is a bad thing to do, i can refer you to London and show you how many of our Nigerian graduates do the same thing in Londodn, washing cars - and you will just wise up.[/quote]The only problem i have with most of your submissions on NL, is your deliberate attempt at closing your eyes to the suffering the poor masses
go through daily to make ends meet. So every body should join the car washing business? I mean wake up from your slumber and face what Naija

[quote author=B.O.S.S. link=topic=227392.msg3414075#msg3414075 date=1233569765]I might be wrong as I’ve not stepped in Nigeria for over a decade however based on what I read, what people see when they return from their journeys and the daily news reports, I doubt I beg to differ when it comes to including Nigeria among the top 5 countries in Africa.

My inclusion however would be (not in any particular order):
Libya
Egypt
Tunisia
South Africa and
Mauritius.

I might be wrong though but I doubt Nigeria fits the list regardless of my opinion because when we talk of development, there are so many indications that must be considered and I doubt Nigeria ticks most of the boxes as of yet.

Electricity,  Water, Education, Good transport links (these are just very basic and Nigeria lacks in these infrastructures and even the percentage of the country that has the opportunity to get them is not even up to 30%. _{I might be wrong though.}

There are different definitions of Developed Country. It all depends on what standard you're using.[/quote]My brother, you are not far from the truth. What really are the criterias for listing this ''developed countries in Africa''?

So it is now a trend for sitting Governors to move every institution in their domain
to their hometown? This is the genesis of the bruhaha in Ekiti State.

Government and regulatory bodies have continued to twist events through manipulation of court
processes to frustrate depositors in their bid to recover their trapped funds from the banks that could
not scale the recapitalisation hurdles.

Contrary to the pronouncement by the CBN Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo in the wake of the
consolidation exercise way back in 2005, that depositors would not lose their funds as a result of the
exercise, hundreds of depositors have laboured in vain to recover their deposits since 2005.

Is this right?

@cre8tivity
To be frank with you, your utterance so far is filled with a naivety on issues of leadership
in Nigeria that i could not but chip in.

Nobody is wishing anybody ill health, rather the Government of Nigeria act of deception on
its citizenry is unbearable. What is wrong in disclosing to the nation the state of his health?
Why all the hide and seek game, they keep playing with us. Afterall he was selected elected
to serve the people.

The truth of the matter remains that Yar'a ill is sick, unwell. If the head is rotten, believe me the whole body
is not likely to escape. You talk about respect to our leaders, on what basis do they deserve our respect?
Is the respect based on the infrastructural developments, power, water supply, or the constant poverty
faced by the masses daily?
Is it based on the greed, power obssession we witness daily in the life of our so called leaders?
Is it based on the decay of moral as exhibited by them?
Is it based on the high level of corruption commonly exhibited? I could go on and on.

They don't deserve our respect because they don't respect us. Yar'a ill should resign, infact if he has
absconded, let him remain there, afterall, we didn't vote him.

The height of Nigeria Police brutality has gone olympics.
How can the Area Commander claim ignorance of the situation in his command?
Meanwhile the fool would never sleep until this same anti-robbery squad bring their
returns to him. His daily returns means more to him than mere ranting of a fellow citizen.
He now calls the lady a mad woman, can you imagine the fool?

Was he ever in the country?
Even when he was here, what happend?
No wonder, all this spent old fools, can now assume various positions of power.
Yar'a ill is total political miscalculation from day one. He was simply imposed on us.
