I find the term "black people need to learn how to swim" as an insult...

nnachukz:
market must not always mean that place marked out by community or government for selling and buying of goods and services. It can be in your house depending on the goods and services you offer. The services NIPOST offered us got a serious competitor which almost knock them off, if not that it is a government establishment.

Shiaman which market nipost de drag

nnachukz:

People should be careful around the beaches.

black ppl should learn how to swim

why, no be una vote am

Pavarottii:
U still don't understand, it's not a PDP something. Hence why did most northern governors defect to APC. GEJ was a minority in power, u think GEJ was voted out because of performance? He was voted against along tribal and religious line. well u may not understand.

we voted for him. he fumbled. badly. he gave himself automatic ticket and refused them. what is good for the goose is good for northerners. that's why they defected not because he was a minority

Pavarottii:
U still don't understand the post. APC was never minority. The man at the helm of governance. GEJ was the minority.

Pls explain. pdp had majority in the house why didn't they implement the recommendations instead of wasting our time and money

I888:
respect brother... respect. sadly, over 90% of the population think otherwise and think like the op. building castle in the air.

Jonathan obj in fact all our leaders had no dreams. just won election and started building ad-hoc roads and distributing grinding machine. dreams are just as important as action

mrvitalis:
Bro I have read all ur post.. . And believe me u have nothing new to offer

U don't even know the problem of Nigeria let alone the solution

What different between u and the people that tell us.. I will give u light, water, road, electricity?? ... U think they n just don't want to?? They can't

Nigeria lacks funds and anybody who I will vote in 2019 must they me how he/she will get the funds to do all those things

there are 10 million ppl who will vote for rice so you don't count

mrvitalis:
This shows that this man knows little about how to solve the Nigerian problem

The problem is not that we can't produce food. ... But the fact that the imported foods are cheaper than ours
We are Comparatively disadvantaged in the production of the foods we import

Research to increase our yields per heacter should be our major concern

Would u buy a Nigerian wheat for 14k while imported wheat is sold for 8k??

give the youth tractor

wisdomguy4u:
Igbos have been massacred several times in the North. Oba of lagos had once threatened to drown the ones in his land .

when they were massacring upandan e de sweet una. when you were insulting your hosts e de sweet una

pazienza:
Because the secession of Igbos from Nigeria will set into motion cascade of events that will see the ethnic Nationalities in the SS leave to form their own countries or join Biafra.

For the Yorubas, this is their greatest fear, as the North already have their fangs deep down the Yoruba flesh, there will be no escape for the Yorubas, they will forever be trapped in a master- Slave Islamic republic of Odua-Arewa. The Jihadists will simply finish off what they started in Kwara some decades ago, but was halted by the Caucasians.


For the North, it will mean less petrodollars and less hosts.But a chance to fully become a sharia Islamic country.


In summary, the secession of Igbos from Nigeria will unbalance Nigeria's socio political and religious equation.

where is the fang. they have not plundered us the way they have raped you. in fact fear of the Yoruba is the beginning of wisdom

compoundC:
[size=28pt]You have to take part in nysc to be president. Or join the military or police.

If you don't fall into any of this category, you can't be president.

500,000 police/ military + nysc 3 million who did nysc.

While only 1.5 million nysc are above the age of 40.
Come to 1.8 million people who can be president. The others do not qualify to be president .

170 millions Nigerian do not qualify to be president.


If you skip the nysc, you can never be president
Nysc is a requirement for you to become president.[/size]

Jombojombo:
Editor’s note: President Muhammadu Buhari was elected on the platform of #Change and many Nigerians saw his emergence as the birth of a new dawn. However, the situation of the country has shown little in the realization of the promise of change.

Demola Olarewaju who is a political analyst and strategist from Lagos reveals that he campaigned against the promise of change by the All progressives Congress and has not regreted his decision one year after.

My vote
I not only voted against #Change, I campaigned against it all over Lagos with my principal Senator Musiliu Obanikoro and on one of those campaigns, I was seated beside him as gunshots in Isale-Eko not far from Iga Idunganran rained directly on our vehicle. Thank God it was a bullet-proof car. Thank God Koro asked his mobile police security not to return fire for fire. If I had lost my life that day.

Of course not all who campaigned against #Change believed in former President Goodluck Jonathan – many switched camps as they underestimated either the determination of Nigerians to vote out that Government or underestimated the effect of the bitter propaganda wars waged by the All Progressives Congress. Perhaps they also assumed that Goodluck Jonathan was desperate enough to upturn the results, no matter what, rather than concede.

Largely though, I, like many others saw through the fraudulent promise of #Change – both APC and then candidate Buhari had failed to show any evidence to back up their lofty promises. In a debate I participated in on Channels Television, my opponent Ikem Isiekwena whom I doubt has ever visited my state of origin insisted that Osun was the APC model of governance.
Ikem Isiekwena has not tweeted for several months now.

Apart from having no clear template of governance, the APC manifesto was essentially a document that read like an advert for the Elysian Fields or Utopia, without any workable plan. In his much talked about missive which seemed against Goodluck Jonathan, Prof. Charles Soludo pointed this out but former Ekiti Governor Kayode Fayemi fired back a response that sounded plausible to those already anticipating #Change.

What the change was all about
The #Change was scantily defined: let’s not kid ourselves – for many, #Change was merely a shift from an ‘Ijaw Christian President’ to a ‘Fulani Muslim President’. This essentially was my problem with #Change – it was reduced to a northern vs southern matter by many in the political elite who then generated intellectual arguments to justify their aim. This argument was advanced by many on social media including influencers who now seek to distance themselves from this #Change, one step at a time.

In any election until another national party emerges, my vote will always be for the PDP of which I am a member. I’m all too aware of the ills and dangers of that have held Nigeria back as every issue is reduced to ethnicity and religion. I am however not blind to the PDP’s period of extreme madness which ironically did not include GEJ’s tenure. That the first chance we got to get things right was to be rejected by Nigerians was not one I was going to accept casually so I voted, and I campaigned.

The dividends of Democracy will never come except the stakeholders put in their best to make this system of governance work. Democracy rests on a tripod: Rule of Law, Free and Fair Election and Freedom of Rights. These three work together to ensure that Democracy provides the much needed development – free and fair elections when guaranteed will ensure that elected officers are beholden only to the voters and will do all they can to satisfy them. With time, Development would have come at a fast pace as a proper electoral culture permeates society down to the Local Government level where it is most needed.

One of Nigeria’s biggest challenges has always been how to live together or, whether we even wanted to be together. To answer this question, Goodluck Jonathan convened a National Conference. If the APC leadership had any iota of ideological credibility in them, they would have supported it wholeheartedly but they could not stand seeing Goodluck Jonathan get the credit for this noble move and they decided to oppose him. That conference produced the best document in two decades that enunciates how Nigeria show be governed and pays attention to issues like True Federalism. In finding a solution to the issues surrounding Resource Control, that document first makes a case for Agriculture as the major vehicle of the development of northern Nigeria, only after which all other states could be allowed to control their resources, including oil. Never in recent history had statesmen from all across Nigeria come to such a roundtable to discuss Nigeria seriously. They fought, they quarrelled, they threatened to walk out but they eventually produced a document for history. That document was lost on March 28 last year when we #Changed.

I initially did not think Goodluck Jonathan could manage the Conference and so I opposed it. As it succeeded, I knew there would be no better person to implement it than he and so I voted for him.

History has a lot to tell
In 1966, a group of armed officers with good and noble intentions slaughtered many of those whom they assumed were the problems of Nigeria. Many of those who were behind them are still the bulk of the ruling elite today and they have over the years installed Heads of the Nigerian State including General Muhammadu Buhari. When the ruling elite and that class of ’66 banded together again against the ‘son of the fisherman’, it was to redress what they considered an affront to their historical bloodline. When the Obasanjos, Atikus, Tinubus, Sarakis, Buharis of the ruling elite banded together to oppose Goodluck Jonathan, it could not in any way have been #Change – at least not a positive #Change.

One year after I voted for something that I understood and believed in, as well as against something that I saw as empty rhetoric, I am proud of how I voted. I can only hope that those who campaigned and voted for #Change really understood what they wanted beyond merely proving to themselves that a Government could be voted out. I can only hope that they understood the man Buhari as they voted for him.

I can only hope that all they took for granted under Goodluck Jonathan is not taken away from them. For all our sakes: we can only continue to hope.

Could somebody jolt her to the fact that this is the 21st century? That she only did her job and that she should not create a press conference after conducting the duties for which she is paid, to allow the opportunity for gratitudinal genuflection?

Truckpusher:
Ekweremadu should just shut up and watch Buhari carry out his draconian policies with zero respect for our diversity ? It's high time we all must sit and talk or we will talk under the barrels and the nozzle of the gun.

Nigeria has a date with destiny, whether you leeches and back biters like it or not, we must talk now or never - I will also remind you that 1967 isn't 2016.

when e happen for 1963 wetin happen,who lose. you better stop yakking and face front

Waiting for rain before planting is never nice move when we can actually make irrigations. However, nothing can be compared to 'rain.' If 'rain' is constant, 'plants' will grow faster and efficiently.

is it not better for them to grow and inefficiently than not at all

Seun:
I have no problem with trade deals, but anyone who thinks this will strengthen the naira is confused. The only thing that will strengthen the naira sustainably is if we export more (or if the price of oil recovers). Our honourable president's well intentioned voodoo economics didn't work the last time and won't work this time either. He needs to listen to mainstream economists and follow their recommendations. Economics works.

who mainstream economists don epp?abegi mowu hia word.
