So even with your hate-bleached brain, you still claim Christian?

You're no different from the idiots brainwashed by shekau in sambissa forest. The only difference between you and them is that while they have the courage to display their stupidity, you can only showcase yours hiding behind your chinko phone in your 2 by 2 shop.

Babachir meanwhile is very dumb to have spoken in that manner. Is Dr Kperogi a Christian? Is Dr Junaid a Christian? To think this sgf is northern Christian minority beats the imagination

Why are you shocked? The northern xtians are as brainwashed as the northern muslims.

I know a number of northern xtians who came out strongly in support of Buhari before his election, some of whom were sat in APC meetings in 2013.

They don't care about progress, or development they just want to requisition resources from the south to squander in the north.

HonabFaj:
Leadership is not by qualification
Nobody study presidency as a degree in school
You can lead when you believe in yourself that you are a leader

Amaechi already has a track record of failure as a governor. He shouldn't be anywhere near any ministry.

The fact that Buhari gifted this man such an important portfolio is proof that his claims about integrity are lies.

Kollyman:
That pregnant guy deserved to be sacked!

He can't even dress well

He wasn't hired on the basis of his physical appearance.

WorldRichest:
You are right. Whom God has blessed, no man can cause. The Jagaban Borgu.

Your god blesses people by stealing from others?

This is from 2010.

Ask him why he doesn't live by the scripture that he purports to follow.

boostdom:
Universal truth is not measured in mass appeal. With the benefit of hindsight, we can begin to examine this case more objectively.

The Governor of Borno state-Shettima, ignored security reports and counsels from the Federal Govt and WAEC about possible security threat and why the exam should not hold particularly in Chibok. WAEC have showed the correspondences to this fact. But this man as the Chief Security Officer ignored these warnings and promised security for the girls. He betrayed the girls by failing to heed warnings and by allowing the exam proceed without security. He was a serving Governor and couldn't be prosecuted. https://www.thecable.ng/shettima-set-chibok-girls-says-fani-kayode

Now, this same man rather than communicate with the higher ups about the kidnap decided to keep quiet. His reasoning? He believed the President would have been briefed. By whom? By security agencies OUTSIDE his state. Or perhaps he was waiting for the President to call him first. http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/201163-i-not-call-jonathan-chibok-girls-abducted-boko-haram-borno-governor-shettima.html

Based on this lethargy from the CSO of the state, it would be rational to assume probable cause for the President to proceed cautiously. It is pertinent to point out that coincidentally, the Governor was from the opposition party.

The agreement signed with the US, UK and France was for them to provide additional intelligence services and platform and the Nigerian security services will handle the intrusion. But these countries, particularly the UK didn't want that. They cited Nigerian military human rights record and wouldn't even provide the required platform. According to a former British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Dr Andrew Pocock disclosed that both the British and United States governments knew where some of the Chibok schoolgirls kidnapped by Boko Haram members were but refused to help or share that information. http://dailypost.ng/2016/03/21/uk-us-governments-knew-location-of-chibok-girls-but-refused-to-rescue-them-ex-british-high-commissioner/

As much as this was an emotional issue, it was also one of national importance. It's hard trusting your partners if they won't keep their end of a treaty, won't provide platform and additional intelligence service and glaring refusal to rescue when they had the chance.

A reasoned, intelligent response.

Several hundred words and not a single lie.

dexterinc2003:
The only reason why i dont want people to stop being religious is simple....humanity (especially in Africa) would be worse if they dont have religious shackles to hold them back. We are not yet ripe for freedom from religion.

There is no evidence to support that claim, rather if people did not waste time on fairy tales they would invest on this life instead of expending energy on the hereafter.

Is he lying though?

John902:
u right but now, Nigerians are d consumer on huge quantity

They're used all over the world.

They not particular to Nigeria or Ghana.

Mckandre:
Is that bag really made in ghana? Who came up with that name?

They're not made in Ghana. They're the bags that people associate with the shameful expulsion of Ghanaians in the 1980s.

Those bags are so tacky. I'm glad they they're banned.

El-Rufai doesn't want to give them a clean bill of health but is willing to pay them for murdering people?

Aufbauh:
What is all this hullabaloo/speculation about Mr. President return?

One thing is certain, whether cabal or no cabal he shall surely return in peace and good health to the shame of his traducers and mischief makers.

Whose shame? They are not the ones lying to the nation about the state of his health.

The man isn't capable or competent enough to be president.

Let him 'rest' in London for eternity. Nigeria does not need his ilk.

How did the states in the North East escape this list?

There are people stealing food from the mouths of IDPs but somehow those states are less corrupt than the ones listed here?

Speedyconnect7:
its possible that no naija girl is there

There isn't, OP is just looking for attention.

While I think it's unfortunate that African women are going abroad to ply their trade Thailand is the last place that should be crying about prostitutes.

Amarabae:
Aisha Buhari is just dull, she is yet to live up to the legacy of Mama peace.
Mama Patience- One of the greatest terrorists to English language.
#Tuale

Mama Peace was so tacky but she did make me laugh on occasion.

xstry:
Even on one's own land?

Yes, it's about proper management of the water table. Just because it is your own land does not mean that your neighbors are unaffected by your actions.

Nigerians need to stop thinking that because it is their property they can do as they please, your actions have consequences for the wider community and environment.

Buharimustgo:
My problem with some Nigerians is that,if someone of importance has not said anything on an issue,they lack the thinking faculty to reason independently

That's some people anywhere.

But I do find it annoying that so many people could not foresee the disaster that is Buhari's administration.

I can somewhat understand why some people were/are annoyed with PDP but Buhari was never going to be an improvement.

alatbaba1:
I am something., 2019 I will vote for buhari.. WHAT AM I?

Olodo.

A goat named Buhari.

He would make for a far more capable president than Buhari.

Super1Star:
SS people need to burn down NDDC.

It really is a useless institution.

I'm not sure why it is needed because when I look at the projects that have been completed by the states and then look at the garbage that is built by the NDDC I wonder who decided to keep funding them and why.

edoboy33:
president yemi osinbajo should make power generation a top priority in his administration and also subtle the level of corruption in the power sector which started from corrupt obasanjo to the ineffectual baboon

Those people who like to wallow in poverty and fight over nothing will be coming for you. Be careful.

teebaxy:
All this our idiotic politician use to support atleast a club in premier league ooo..... Bolton Stadium that is in league 1 is better than all our stadium as a nation..... Can't they give us something nice?

The Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo is world class.

The National Stadium in Abuja is world class.

Clearly you don't know what you are talking about.

donfemo:
National Stadium Surulere is dead, what are they inspecting?

Our poor maintenance culture on everything, its just sad.

It's owned by the Federal Government who have a stadium in Abuja.

Rather than hand over to Lagos state or sell it to private investors they prefer to sit on it.

cstr55:
I have seen this news on nairaland up to ten different occasions throughout last year.

It does seem to hit front page every week.

I wonder what kind of security apparatus announces its every move to the world.

zlantanfan:
there is a deliberate move by the elite of the north to continuously use it's people ignorance and population for its benefit, some things would never change.
The day they get knowledge is the day they start questioning the benefit they have gained from there blinded massive support.

A lot is spent to keep them that way even to the extent of using religion as long as the deception sinks.

So u see we have to talk of our progress and leave those that are destined to remain behind.

I remember gowon in the 80s saying the education and progress in the south should be stopped for 30 years to allow the north catch up, this was in the 80s

I didn't know he said that.

I hope he didn't...

zlantanfan:
ftc for once, after all the hype I dare say this pop is just overrated, just a bunch of lazy bored Nigerians battling on who first add more money to oga seun wallet.

By the way the government should focus more attention on the new Boko Haram that affects all which is the economy

They need to ensure that every child in the north east has an education so that they can participate in the economy. That would mean challenging the crooks in that region who are intent on ensuring that the people remain dependent and in poverty.

winj3:
My concerns is more with sustaining the numbers, blacks are more irresponsible than any other race...making up the majority of single parent homes and unplanned childbirths - while the immediate economies cannot sustain such volume and load.

I cannot even start to compare 1 billion china or any other Asian economy with huge populations - with less overpopulated african countries.

The face of poverty is still blacks and africa, and it is clear that the poverty seriously derives from irresponsible childbirths in most familes.

The production of children in Nigeria for example is not equal to the earning power and affordability of the families that produced such numbers while china for example has affordability despite a larger overall population which when split down by families is much smaller than typical Nigerian ones.

You're right that Nigeria has a problem with population growth and from a personal standpoint I do not understand the need to breed recklessly but it is India that is the epicenter for malnutrition, not Africa. And citizens of African nations are generally healthier and wealthier than those on the Indian subcontinent (where there are more people).

A good comparison would be between Pakistan or Bangladesh and Nigeria. Similar population sizes but the first two have smaller economies.

The problem in Nigeria depends on education which relates to region. Women in the north are being married off as children and so it should come as no surprise that a girl married at 16 will have 8 (or more children) during the course of her life. Women have a limited time during which they can produce children, if we can delay the age at which they marry then we can also limit the number of children that they will have.

We also need to ensure that sexual/reproductive health is taught to all which would mean challenging the various religious bodies that stand in the way of anything progressive.
