All couples will go through marital problems. Its inevitable and also the honeymoon phase will pass. So what happens when the honey moon phase is over? When finances becomes to much to bear then the fight starts and unhappiness creeps in. If the husband is dangote then great but looking at the current economic situation especially in Nigeria and what the average man earns, one needs to be realistic. When you have kids its not just about you and "happiness". There are people who hate their jobs and would love to quit but they can't because they have responsibilities. The reason we work hard is ultimely for our kids and family to have a better life. If I have to work from 7am to 9pm in order for me to give my kids the best future possible then I will do it.

future without their mother is best ba

How did the robbers know he was going to withdraw money,someone in that meeting who knows about the money earlier before the meeting set up this robbery.If only the Police can be proactive enough,everyone who knows about the withdrawal should be invested,their emails and calls should be requested for.

DeleteNonsense:
Bring Donald, Obama, Ekwueme & etc to rule Nigeria will not stop Bi*fra agitation but True Federalism can calm it small but @the end we will realize why God gave people different culture, language & religion. When a system develops serious problem u can only chunk the problem and solve it bit-by-bit so is not bad if we chunk Nigeria bit-by-bit to solve her problem. I believe in solution & peace/justice.

describe ''true '' federalism.

As safe as they have always been under Nigeria police force

TonyeBarcanista:
It is a truism that President Buhari and his APC party have failed Nigerians, and even went as far as denying their campaign promises, hence, doesn't deserve a renewal of their mandate in Aso Rock and all other positions in 2019. However, the PDP of a party(and their sub-parties like my Palmchat friend always call the LPs/APGAs etc) should never be considered as a replacement for obvious reasons.

1. PAST PDP GOVERNMENTS ALSO FAILED IN THEIR CAMPAIGN PROMISES:
I have seen some comments from some PDP loyalists lamenting that Nigeria is missing Goodluck Jonathan, and I keep shaking my head. To those who may be unaware, President Goodluck Jonathan in 2011 made a whopping NIGHTY-ONE campaign promises which includes creation of 1.5 million jobs within 2years, To construct 2 world scale petrochemical plants, 2 fertilizer plants and 2 fertilizer blending plants, To build a $3 billion central gas processing facility by 2012 to be sited in Obiaruku Delta State, To attract $25 billion worth of investment into developing the country’s gas infrastructure, To create 600,000 new jobs in the gas industry, zero tolerance for corruption, transform Nigeria economy in 4 years, modernisation of ports, and so many GIGANTIC promises that can be seen here https://ogala./2011/11/18/president-goodluck-jonathans-91-campaign-promises-help-identify-those-he-has-delivered/ http://www.dailytrust.com.ng/sunday/index.php/top-stories/15666-reopening-jonathan-s-bag-of-many-promises

Just like Buhari, the last PDP administration didn't fulfill up to 2% of their promises despite the fact that they presided over oil boom period that traded at $100 per barrel in their time except late 2014.

2. PDP AND APC HAVE CORRUPT TRADITION
The administration that pledged zero tolerance for corruption became the most corrupt administration in the history of Nigeria, sharing our monies with their equally corrupt APC friends and willing civil servants. This corruption did not start from the last administration but they took it to the highest level. Our Reserves was heavily depleted from $47. 7 billion (As At December 31st, 2009) that the last administration inherited to meagre $30billion, while the Excess crude Account that Jonathan inherited at $6.5billion in February 2010 was depleted heavily and left at a meagre $2.1billion in 2015 www.thisdaylive.com/articles/excess-crude-govs-want-3bn-shared/82376/. It is a truism that within February and August 2010, Jonathan along with his PDP colleagues and APC friends deleted the ECA from $6.5billion to a meagre $450million www.vanguardngr.com/2010/08/fg-draws-down-3bn-from-excess-crude-account/. It took Ngozi Iwaela to come to the rescue to up the ECA to $9billion between 2011 and 2012 www.cp-africa.com/2012/12/03/nigerias-excess-crude-account-eca-more-than-doubles-in-one-year-as-it-rises-to-about-9-billion/, but like the corrupt tradition in both APC and PDP, the $9billion was again depleted by the Political leaders from both camps and their affiliate camps, that are always available to partake in the sharing.

In this APC administration, we have been hearing budget padding to the tune of hundred of billions, the shielding of political associates of the administration in the ongoing corruption war, the billions demanded by Lai just for China trip etc. It is even worse that the Speaker of the House of Representatives, his Deputy, minority leader (who is PDP) and some others were fingered in padded looting at the expense of our ailing economy. It is even a shame that they are justifying the fraud, and the ruling party is looking at political solution instead of judicial punishment.

Can we forget so soon the secret recruitment of PDP/APC elite kids in CBN and other agencies?

3. BOTH PARTIES ARE FAILURES
Imo state led by APC couldn't meet a simple obligation of paying workers for over seven months, Edo state is also owing workers, also Nasarawa, Benue, Kogi, Oyo and several others. The case is not different from PDP states of Ekiti, Ondo, Bayelsa(oil producing along with Ondo) etc.

While the FG led by APC is crying that we have no money, the government of Buhari was busy giving FOREX subsidies in the tune of multi-billions to people on pilgrimage from both the Christian and Muslim faiths. Similarly, the PDP administration in Rivers state that has pledged to stop foreign sponsorship for indigent students and even withdraw those on scholarship due to paucity of funds is the same administration that pledged to continue spending on Pilgrimage for Christians and Muslims in the state http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/08/wike-to-continue-sponsorship-of-pilgrims-to-israel-saudi-arabia/. If this is not failure I wonder how one can define failure.

4. PDP WILL NEVER CHANGE
When some of us joined PDP, we did with the mindset of working towards a structural change in the party that would allow space for credible people. Despite the fact that some young people expended their all to see to that change, the corrupt elite that OWNS the party has refused to repent. The same people that were fingered in looting our resources from both parties are the same people being courted by the PDP. Bukola Saraki that is undergoing trial for acute corruption is more like a god to PDP. I was even ashamed seeing PDP HOR member Tony Nwolu defending Speaker Dogara on this budget fraud. Look at the calibre of men aspiring to lead the party, the Bode George, Gbanga Daniel etc. The party is not even sober at all, just like their APC colleagues. What a shame.

5. PDP AND APC ARE HYPOCRITICAL ABOUT RESTRUCTURING
While Ekweremadu the Deputy Senate President has been shouting RESTRUCTURING, he has failed to make case for it when it matters most. As DSP since 2007, Ekweremadu has always been the Chairman of Constitution Amendment Committee but he has never for once sponsor a bill for true federalism/regionalism/or whatever. Same way APC chieftains that has been shouting TRUE FEDERALISM but have never for once agitated for it in constitution review since 1999 despite the fact that Nigerians in their majority yearned for it. These people(APC and PDP) will deliver great speech about federalism and receive standing ovation, but they won't lift a finger to make such proposal in any of the amendments. In every amendment, their focus has always been life pension, immunity from criminal prosecution and "sharing" among themselves.

I make bold to say that the real factors against the progress of Nigerians is never tribal or religious differences but the political elites within APC, PDP, and their allies.

6. AS MUCH AS NIGERIA CANNOT AFFORD APC RETENTION, SHE ALSO CAN'T AFFORD A PDP COMEBACK:
Make no mistake, APC has a mission to deplete Nigeria and frustrate Nigerians, but PDP is like an hardened criminal that has vowed never to repent despite several rehab sessions. To PDP, it is okay to be corrupt and then cry witch-hunt at the end of the day, while to APC it is okay to be corrupt as long as you maintain saying "Yes Sir" to the APC gods.

Nigerians should be prayerful because with the calibre of men around PDP, we will be in bigger trouble if we make the mistake of bringing back this party to power. While APC is playing draft with our common sense, PDP is scheming how to return to power to replenish their financial loss. PDP as a party is not tired of sucking our resources, hence, promoting men that are having one or two corruption cases as front-men.

As a country, we need opposition but we have a responsibility to ensure that PDP Rest In Peace, while patriotic young people assume the role of opposition. It is unfortunate that some of us over the years tacitly/innocently aided the fraud of both miserable groups thinking that there will be internal change but it has been proven that these corrupt parties are not ready to change.


I shall pause here for now hoping that my message is well understood....




May God Bless Us All and Bless Nigeria

allycat:
For all who say PDP never did anything right, may their lives go back to how it was prior to 1999. Anyone says PDP was a total failure and doesn't say AMEN to this prayer is a hypocrite. Since it is PDP that destroyed everything may your lives(Not mine) go back to the fuel scarcities of yesteryear, the lack of available and affordable telephones and NITEL being a monopoly. May the Lagos Benin and East West roads return the the time when we used to spend 2 days on this road. May we go back to all using cyber cafes and the yahoo yahoo boys that scammed everybody. May you go back to queuing in the bank ap with tally numbers and may ATM's become a thing of the past in your lives. May the private universities and schools as we know them all disappear or become out of reach to the average NigerianPlease think back to how your lives were then and say a big AMEN. Anyway at the rate we are going we will get back there in some areas. At least Mastercards were not available to the average Nigerian prior to 1999 and we are going back to the time when no Nigeriancould do online transactions, because we were deemed fraudulent.The dollar is going higher so soon the average young person will not be able to afford a brand new car and cars like Tokunbo Tercel and Starlet and the old golf will come back. keep praying hard that Buhari takes your life back to the pre 1999 utopia that Nigeria was. PDP could have done more with the money available, there was widespread corruption but to say they didn't do anything good is hypocritical.

I dunno about yours but
My unborn generations are good

Our debt profile is already above $64billion and currently for every #1 collected as tax, 35kobo goes into debt servicing. and before 2020, we should arrive at over $100billion and which will also increase the debt service figure.
calm down
Other countries have had it worse and recovered
Now let's join hand to welcome the thunder. And don't think for a second that it will be for just politicians. Nah, every Nigerian will be held accountable for either their action or inaction.

HammerTheirPapa:
your brand of dog-and-baboon politics is alien to a sound Igbo man, that's why there are Igbo politicians in Finland, Poland, US, and Uk where sane people reside, but they can't just fathom how to play the "bloody" Allah-inspired politics of ISLAMOGERIA. Beyond that, Igbos are not interested in the presidency of your zoo. No matter who rules a zoo, it will always capitulate and never make head way. yorubas and hausa and fulanis have tried and FAILED.
