Lol. So na condemn you dey find now ba? I thought you condemned him for only condemning the other attacks? That day was his inauguration. He had to party. He was duty bound to party.

And hey, you have no moral rights to talk about BH since it was under you boss that they went from using knives to world class technologies.

Buhari was a Military head of state. You'd be totally naive to believe he was poor. He called himself that though.

As for Sylvia, really where did that allegation come from? What prove do you have to show? Well, I admit Buhari should have let it go on until they can prove their is no solid proof against Sylvia. Lol! so now you want him to probe people ehn? When he probes your madam don't talk o and all your oga's girlfriends don't cry o.
I don't take that guy seriously anymore. He writes with misplaced hate. He ll never make sense if he continues this way

Sweetlemon:
I first watched in shock, then irritation, and then plain amusement as people began making demands from Buhari even before his swearing-in, minutes after his inaugural speech and now days after his swearing in. Precisely today is Tuesday, 4 days after his inauguration and the air is filled with all kinds of talk ranging from his decision to relocate army command to Maiduguri to his wife’s wristwatch to even his children’s beauty to his appointment of this two advisers, his yet-to-be-released ministerial list, to his visiting Chad and Niger for assistance on BH. Some already comparing his administration to GEJ’s and re-instating the latter’s hero ship.
Now, for those who say they are doing to him what was done to GEJ, you guys seem to be missing something.
People like me did not start hating on GEJ just like that. He had an easy ride to aso rock with so much goodwill. In fact, we didn’t start active mobilization against him until after the 2012 New year gift he gave us. Maybe we need to revisit GEJ’s administration from the first day so we can refresh our memories that the man had little or nothing to show from the beginning. We only started talking after that VERY major blunder. So please don’t begin to compare the two men. GEJ inherited a much healthier treasury, a much more peaceful country, and much more enviable economy. Campaign promises or not, you’d be total slowpoke to expect those promises to start manifesting before even 6 months. You’d be more naïve to expect Nigeria to bounce back in respectable shape before at least a year, judging from all what I have heard and seen around me. Buhari said many times not to expect miracles. He did give promises, but never called himself a magician or miracle worker. He warned us severally that the road was NOT looking smooth.
Now I will comment on some issues people have been talking about Buhari, the important ones….

1. Aisha’s Wristwatch: Wow. So because I’m not a run’s girl I cannot own an iPhone 6, wear 300k weaves, or drive an expensive car without people calling me one? So I cannot have a good honest job anymore or a rich bf/fiancée/hubby again ba? Just because Buhari is not corrupt does not mean that he would be poor. He is a well-connected man. Meaning he will always have people coming to his aid every now and then. Aisha I hear is even from an influential background. Now tell me, let’s assume her wristwatch cost 1Nb did she buy it with govt moneyhuhhuhhuhhuh? Is it not better we see them with money already so that when we later see them with such stuff later we won’t say she used govt moneyhuhhuhhuhhuhhuhhuh You get my point?

2. That Buhari is Now Seeking International Aid for The Fight Against BH: Ok. I am not a security personnel I don’t know jack about what is the best way to fight BH but all I do know is that BH must be fought and Buhari must take responsibility henceforth. Do I care that he’s seeking for international aid after condemning Jonathan for doing same? Well… a lil. But as at now what is the true state of our military? Can we truthfully say that they are ok. Hell no! There’s too much rot in the military now and perhaps that’s why Buhari felt waiting to clean the rot while BH claim more lives would only be counter-productive. He sha had to start doing something, anything to fight BH. NOW. Unlike GEJ who only woke up few weeks to the elections after having 5 years at his disposal but sat back and allowed the sect grow from using knives and basic guns to competing with the most financed terror groups in the world. Buhari did not just condemn BH and looked away, he’s backing it up with action. There is a plan to move the command quarters to Maiduguri, let’s watch and see how that unfolds. Buhari def is not the type to go partying after a bomb blast or say that terrorism is everywhere and that it’s our turn or cry that it’s the work of his enemies and even say that BH has infiltrated his govt and do absolutely nothing about flushing them out of his govt. You get my point again?

3. Buhari’s Yet-To-Be-Released Ministerial List: Ok so we have no idea yet who our new ministers are after 2 work days huh? Wow! That’s so baaaaaaad! Lol! Abeg, have you all thought maybe he’s taking his time to come up with the best he could possibly get? Don’t you think he’d be a lil bit scared of making the mistake of surrounding himself with praise singers? Don’t you think he knows that you all will fry him if his cabinet disappoints? Is that not a good reason why he might want to delay this all-important list a lil bit? You’re getting my point ko?

4. Declaring of Assets Publicly: Well, I believe Buhari should just keep people quiet about this. After all he made that promise. Just go on air or wherever and get it done with. Like how Yar’Adua did it. But me o, I don’t give a damn about that. All I care and desire from politicians is PERFORMANCE. If you like declare your ancestor’s assets, but if you fail to deliver key expectations, you are useless to me. Akpabio and Fashola never declared jack, and my dears, those guys looted like hell but we all know they were the best ever! Shey you have finally gotten my point?

The list goes on but I will stop here. Nigeria is pretty much in her restarting and reinstalling stages and you will do yourself good by being a little bit patient. Yes study what’s happening around you, watch, take notes. But be patient. Concern yourself with important things. Don’t let petty and frivolous things take your eyes away from the price. Nigeria will get there….. Soon.

Sai Buhari

Sai Nigeria.

I just want to know if evangelism is now a business that pays well lipsrsealed
PoliticsI’m Retiring To Evangelism – Reno Omokri by midolian(op): 6:19am On Jun 06, 2015
Nigeria’s first official special assistant on New Media, Mr Reno Omokri, son of Late Justice Jean Omokri; a former Justice of the Court of Appeal and Late Mrs Helen Igbene, is a Law graduate and family man, who describes himself as strong, warm and imperfect individual, striving towards perfection. In this interview with SUZAN IRONSI, he clarifies issues on some publicised stories, his experiences and future plans  

Why did you choose New Media as a professional tool?

Well, working with Joe Trippi in America, I had no choice but to embrace New Media for political purposes, because Trippi was probably the first person in the world to do that on an organised and successful scale with the Dean Campaign. Previously, I had worked on the emerging online space during the Obasanjo era, particularly in the office of the then vice president, Atiku Abubakar.

You know I had to be strategic. Nigeria’s New Media environment has a lot of professional naysayers. They wait for you to come out with a message just to disagree with you. Even when you agree with them, they disagree with you. They target people with press value so that they make the headlines at your expense. These disagreements, being political in nature, sometimes cross over to the traditional media and could be a source of embarrassment for the principal. That being the case, it was considered prudent to limit exposure to the most strategic platforms where one could have as much control over one’s messaging.

 

What do you have to say about the allegation that you used Deborah Campbell’s son’s identity to create a fake document that sought to link Nigeria’s former Central Bank governor, Emir Sanusi Lamido Sanusi II, to terrorism?

I know Ms Campbell. She is a politician in California and, as a matter of fact, she wrote me a few weeks ago asking me to be her campaign manager for her next election. I have the letter which I can give you. Ms Campbell is a public figure and you can contact her directly. Allegations and accusations are always made against public figures and only a foolish person will dignify each and every one with a response.

 

Can you comment on how you feel when accused of stepping outside of your job role, which is primarily explaining and clarifying policy?

Many people do not know how government works. In April, I began my terminal leave and I officially moved out of my office and handed over all government property in my possession. The tweet you refer to was made in May of 2015. I made that tweet in my personal capacity. If you go and study my tweets, you will notice that since I began my terminal leave, I’ve been tweeting about my faith in God through His Son Yeshu’a (Jesus) whom the Islamic world knows as Annabi Isa (Prophet Isa). I also tweet my personal opinions about Nigeria. I am free to do now, what I was restricted from doing before.

 

Rumour had it that Obi Asika replaced you in ex-president, Goodluck Jonathan’s administration, was that true?

Obi Asika and I were amused by all the lies and misinformation fed the public by certain sites and individuals. I was never fired, replaced or demoted. Obi Asika was never my boss neither was I operating under him in a subordinate capacity. I had my role and he had his. We had cause to socialise but we never collaborated on anything.

 

What do you have to say about the attacks on your person because of your erstwhile position as spokesperson for the ex-president, Goodluck Jonathan’s administration?

I thank Nigerians, but most especially I thank some online newspaper sites. When my first book, “Shunpiking: No Shortcuts to God” was released in America, it was not doing so well in the Barnes and Noble and Amazon Bestseller list until these two sites began publishing mostly negative stories about me.

I was shocked at how their stories pushed my book up the bestseller rankings. They had the intention of hurting me but they ended up helping to sell my books which preach godliness through Christ; and then I remembered the words of Paul in Philippians 1:18: “But what does it matter? The important thing is that in every way, whether from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice. Yes, and I will continue to rejoice”. So, I rejoice at my persecution at the hand of these two sites. It is as Joseph said in Genesis 50:20 “You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good.”

 

What are some of the high and low points you had while working for the former president, Goodluck Jonathan?

The highest point in my opinion was when the president was dubbed the “Facebook President” by CNN. He went on to have the second highest Facebook following of any elected president after President Obama. The low point was that my job put me in the spotlight, making me a target of the political media opposed to the president.

 

Will you still play a role in politics?

I am not interested in any political position any more. I want to retire to evangelism. My second book is coming out in America and is titled ‘Why Jesus Wept’. I want to focus on promoting the book. I am in some demand as a speaker in churches in the United States and I run a non-profit that is building an orphanage in Nigeria. My hands are full doing the work of God.

 

Any final words?

My final word is this: consider a buffalo and a wolf. One on one, the buffalo is stronger than the wolf. However, because buffalo will not unite to fight the wolves, they become weaker because the wolves are united.

The biggest culture shock Africans have when they travel to the West, especially for studies, is to find out that they are more intelligent than the average Westerner one on one. However, because black folks are not willing to unite, we are weaker as a people and as a result we are under the influence of more united people.

Genesis 11:6 reads: “the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do”.

The most successful nations are those nations who understand the principle of Genesis 11:6. That is the idea behind the United States of America; that is the idea behind the United Kingdom of Great Britain, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the British Isles; that is the idea behind the European Union and also the United Arab Emirates. If black people, and especially the Nigerian nation, do not key into this principle, if they remain disunited along tribal, ethnic, regional and religious lines, we will never be able to fulfill our potential as a people, and as a nation. This is my advice to the Buhari administration.

I knew Wike was up to something when he released those fraudulent pictures..The lion of Ubima won't stoop so low to the level of making away with the rugs, electrical fittings, curtains, bullet-proof doors, furniture and all..A childish allegation I ld call that.

A man that can go to this extent jst to discredit another man doesn't deserve to be the governor of Rivers state...This man is wicked ..and I am sure that by the time he finishes with Rivers state, rivers pple wld know "Wike and Wickedness" actually means the same thing..

I jst dey pity Rivers pple..
PoliticsAmaechi Counters Wike’s Looting Claim, Releases Government House Photos by midolian(op):
Former Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi, has countered claims by his successor, Nyesom Wike, that he looted furniture, items and accessories in the Rivers State Government House.

DAILY POST, on Friday, received pictures showing some rooms and offices, which appear to look intact.

However, it is yet to be ascertained if the lootings being claimed by Wike’s camp were carried out in rooms shown in the pictures this newspaper got or elsewhere.

Assistant State Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Sam Nwanosike had alleged that cronies of the past Governor, Rotimi Amaechi were taking the state properties in Lagos and Abuja.

Nwanosike earlier in the week said: “the liaison officer in Abuja, John Enebeli is battling with Coscharis motors to steal the two BMW cars that the Governor uses while in Abuja.

“They are still looting Rivers state Government property both in Lagos and Abuja and even in Port Harcourt.

“If you say Governor Amaechi did not allow for the looting of those items, how come he found it difficult to collaborate with the transition committee?” He querried.

But Amaechi through his media assistant, David Iyofor said that Wike had gone to “ridiculous and absurd” lengths to show his imaginary claims of vandalism and
looting in Government House in his bid to vote billions of naira for renovation of the place.

Amaechi urged Rivers people, the media and the public “to be watchful, vigilant and discern the fraudulent acts” of the new Administration meant to paint him (Amaechi) and the Administration he headed appear evil.

Continuing he said, “As I noted earlier in a previous statement, Nyesom Wike is going ahead with his plan of attempting to deride and discredit me and my administration, by blackmailing and coercing key government officials including DFAs, Permanent Secretaries and others to twist and distort legitimate government transactions in his desperation to cook-up, and fabricate baseless, concocted and unfounded cases of corruption against me and the administration I ran.

“The state bankers and some of our contractors are also not spared in this his mission of tarnishing the reputation of Amaechi. As a matter of fact, Wike has only one agenda as he governs Rivers State – the agenda to portray me as corrupt, by whatever means no matter how ridiculous and phony it looks”.

Amaechi also described as a fraud the video and pictures of the looted and vandalized Government House that Wike has been showing.

“The images are also fraudulent, arranged and executed by Wike to enable him vote billions of Naira from the state treasury to renovate and refurbish the place, while also accusing me of corruption.

“I repeat, this is clearly a game, a grand conspiracy to siphon state funds under the sub-head of renovating and refurbishing a supposedly ‘vandalized and looted’ Government House, while also falsely smear my image.

“Wike said the curtains in the Governor’s residence were looted, but even in his stage-managed images, you could clearly see that the curtains are still intact. I left Government House intact.

“Rivers people should hold Wike responsible if there’s any looting and vandalism in Government House. There is verifiable information that on May 29, Wike stopped key Government House staff including the Permanent Secretary (who’s the chief accounting officer) from entering the premises, only to shout looting and vandalism 48 hours later.

“Why were civil servants, including the most senior civil servant in Government House, barred from entering the compound on May 29? Was it to give him time and provide cover to stage-manage the shooting of the fraudulent video that he’s now gleefully showing?” the ex-governor quipped.
