Politics / Re: Three Signs That Goodluck Jonathan Is Politically Naive by naijamini(m): 2:50am On Jun 29, 2010 |
@Beaf I knew which side you would be on this even before reading your reply - you are that obvious these days However, I think you are right on this point - GJ is certainly not naive. These statements show that he is dealing with some powerful interests in his own party. These powerful interests have silently pressured him to no avail, and have now revealed their faces to the public. Some of these statements show that he is ready to call them out. As for those who "misbehaved" in the Yar'adua saga he probably has a joker in store for them. The statements I am having problems with are those asking for the impossible, such as asking the super eagles to go win the world cup - they actually need to stop this practice of meeting the president B/4 going to play. That should be reserved for those who win something - but again GJ is testing the waters and may be shifting to campaign mode already. The other statement is one that appears like hiding behind one finger by asking that Nigeria to be made part of the G-20. Not after the Yar'adua fiasco that took us close to the abyss should anyone be selling snake oil to the world in front of which we made such fools of ourself. It is not his political naivety that worries me, but whether he actually knows what it takes to correct what bedevils this nation. Beaf: |

jazzsoul: Glad someone caught the inconsistency - I mean nobody is completely clean, but this here is simply amazing! This, and the story of IBB authorizing private universities because someone who wanted one visited him in Aso Rock, show you the extent of corruption in our system. It is corruption when you don't get a cut, it is not when you are involved! |
Politics / Re: Jonathan Should Emulate Abdulsalami —jibril Aminu by naijamini(m): 4:51am On Jun 28, 2010 |
How can a group of people shamelessly call themselves "the elite" - doesn't he realize this is not meant in a good way! If they are not going to give way for true progress in Nigeria, true progress must run them over. See how Atiku is shameless joining IBB once Jonathan put up a no vacancy sign in PDP. Atiku left AC in a hurry because he suddely saw the field as his, what with zoning in place (I don't even know what this man thinks he is doing anyway - his name is all over several high profile international corruption cases). He surely can't go back to AC, and IBB is not welcomed in AC either. Checkmate! Now I am beginning to see a potential scenario for Nigeria to split by 2015 - the "northern elite" foolishly engage their military arm to foment a coup - that would be Nigeria's death knell! This may create a way for the PDP to lose the presidency to someone like Buhari - who if he makes an honest effort to address a couple of issues (checking his religion at the door) and bundles himself with a good southern technocrat (to address his lack of global exposure and knowledge of the new world economic order) has a good chance of campaigning on both eradicating corruption and moving Nigeria in the right direction economically. |

Mrs. Abiola-Costello is trying to be diplomatic: "She opined that IBB’s behaviour could suggest a fundamental psychological problem." There is no need to be diplomatic with IBB. He is too far gone to be handled with kid gloves. I don't really know how in a country of 140 million such a person can not only be walking around freely, but trying to become president.

If you buy into this crappy interpretation you are just as crazy as those who started this ungodly rumour. While it takes someone to point out the eagle in the picture - its meaning is just what the eye of the eagle symbolizes - watching from very far. The WORLD'S EYES are focused on South Africa for one month FROM FAR AWAY. Of course the background is white, Africa is painted in the colors of the South African flag, and the man is painted black - it just fits together. |

Politics / My Achievements There For All To See – Ibb - He Is Seriously Delusional by naijamini(m): 5:26am On Jun 27, 2010 |
A combination of senelity and megalomania is turning IBB into a delusional being - it seems the only thing he can hear is coming from his head, and they are telling him he is the greatest. This is the same buffoon who locked up universities for up to 1 year, whose policies emptied our universities and hospitals of their skilled workforce. National examination results today are a sad spectacle. If only this man understood how long it takes to develop a competent army of teachers, professors, nurses and doctors, and is not suffering from delusions of gradeur, he would realize that he is singularly responsible for the comatose state of our educational system. National News Jun 27, 2010 Former military ruler, General Ibrahim Babangida said on Thursday at Okija, Anambra State, that his achievements during his tenure are there for all to see. He cited the law on private universities as one. |

Really, what did you expect from people whose main qualification for this position was how many people they knew? Progress will continue to elude Nigeria until we realize that the competition in every sphere of life is against a more skilled world. Our officials seem to be completely clueless about the difference between street talk and official-speak, especially before international audiences.

Politics / Re: Is This Really The ''first Storey Building In Nigeria''? by naijamini(m): 2:33am On Jun 26, 2010 |
@ROSSIKE I appreciate your optimism, and I am an optimist too, but lets just say that my optimism is like an hour glass that is fast losing sand to the other side, especially after the Yar'adua fiasco. I use to believe that incrementalism might do the trick for Africa, but it seems that nothing less than major surgery to our way of doing things and psyche can jolt us out of our letargy. It seems clear to me that Africa's so called good times can be described as peace of the grave. I am not willing to accept that Africa is moving ahead rapidly until I see major structural changes on the mother continent - it is just a lull until all hell breaks lose again. Yesterday, it was Ivory Coast that appeared so stable until the dictator died. Before that Liberia was a haven for visitors from inside and outside Africa - see where they are now. One day would be one day, the dictator of Cameroun will pass on, as well will that of Uganda - the peace of those graves will turn to the cry of mourners. The young Kabila has been in charge of Congo since 2001, how long is he going to stay? Is this the beginning of another 30 or 40 year dictatorship? Zimbabwe's Mugabe, in his wisdom, turned a once bread basket into a wasteland with currency denominated in the billions! What do you think will be the ultimate solution to this? Let our shame-ators and repsenta-thieves continue their wayward ways and see whether some soldier will not step in - if only as an excuse to loot. It happened very recently in Niger . Don't misunderstand me. Botswana, South Africa and Ghana seem to be at least inching up, but the potential of Africa is so much more. Without serious CHANGE don't be surprised if it all comes crashing a few years hence. I am nagged by a certain structural deformation in our way of doing things. For example, Botswana has maintained a democratic government since independence, has one of the highest growth rates in per capita income and is the least corrupt (according to TI) in Africa, but in 2006 HIV/AIDS prevalence was 24% and it was estimated that life expectancy at birth had dropped from 65 to 35 years (from Wikipedia). This just doesn't compute for me at all! ROSSIKE: |
Politics / Re: Fg Agrees To Pay N458b Phcn Debt To Gas Firms, Others by naijamini(m): 1:41am On Jun 26, 2010 |
@paddy_lo OBJ certainly could have blown the funds, pay no debt or simply steal it - for his prudence he deserves credit & for some other things as well (e.g. telecommunications). However, what Gen. OBJ built with his right hand, he destroyed with the left by not really understanding what it would take for his legacy to be sustained - both in the 1970s & 2000s. It is rare for a man to have two opportunities to rule and set a nation straight like OBJ did, especialy so far apart in time, and yet make the same mistake TWICE. He was prudent this time no doubt - perhaps that was the only lesson he learnt from the 1970s. However, in terms of the amount of income Nigeria made from oil exports during his two times in office, he was luckier than good because he took over precisely during oil booms and left before the ensuing bust. As for Yara'dua spending all the savings - he really had no choice. He certainly made matters worse by his slowpoke, vengeful approach to governance trying to overturn anything OBJ did. Black gold was both the source of OBJ's luck and Yar'adua's downfall ---> 1999:$17/bbl; rising steadily for 8 years 2007:$60/bbl; mid-2008:$147/bbl; within 2 years Early-2009:$40/bbl. Imagine if OBJ had searched for and presented to Nigerians a visionary - we know he basically appointed Yar'adua, why not someone good for the country? paddy_lo: |
Politics / Re: Nigeria Ripe For G-20 Membership – Jonathan by naijamini(m): 1:05am On Jun 26, 2010 |
He is not a simpleton by any means - if you meant it in the strict sense. However, he doesn't seem to be THE one we are looking for. Unfortunately, as with Yar'adua our options are sadly limited. Which of those politicians out there are showing they can do better? If there are any, I am yet to see manifestos and plan of action! Besides, it seems we are watching another president in the process of being overwhelmed by Nigeria's multifaceted diseases, and devoured by the eggheads that are supposed to be his "knowledgable" advisers. He is probably just reading what the speechwriters put on paper these days - he probably has little time to digest the contents. The problem is, as with his former boss, those words come back to hunt you with vegeance. Nigeria needs at least 6 topnotch people tackling her problems together at once. President Jonathan is making unbelievable statements. I am having serious doubts about him, or at least the constitution of his government, after he charged the Super Eagles to win the world cup. You don't win the world cup by wishful thinking just because you are celebrating your 50th anniversary this year. What is this idea of the president meeting the footballers anyway? - that should happen only if you win something! OK! shotster50: Akanniade: |

I agree too. The question is of what value is that if we can't re-write our own history and discard the absolute bunkum they wrote in their combination of ignorance & wickedness ages ago. Where do we stand when our current fortunes as a continent mirror what they said we would be - ravaging hunger while residing on perhaps the most resourceful continent on the planet, for example! Tribalistic mumbo-jumbo that amount to baby-like babbling of baboons in the bush! We can protest all we want, but until we take charge of both our history and our present we continue to reinforce the passed-down delusions of ages ago. EzeUche: |
Politics / Is Goodluck Jonathan The One? by naijamini(m): 4:20am On Jun 25, 2010 |
President Goodluck Jonathan is indeed a lucky man - that we are all well aware of. You might even say that his advancement in government is "destiny-like". I am not a believer in destiny, but do believe in coincidence and the possibility of repeating patterns, and sometimes luck - but I digress. The point of this post is to seek your opinion: Have we have found the needle Nigeria needs on top of the sack, by fortuitous accident, or do we need to vigorously search the haystack of current pretenders before we find a true leader. Before GJ received official powers it was easy to excuse certain tendencies, but with full powers in his grip I am beginning to wonder if he is proving to be, not just a good leader, but THE leader Nigeria awaits. This wonderment results from my vision of what THE LEADER would be. I see: THE LEADER as a man/woman capable of transcending the divisions that bedevil this potentially great nation - whether tribal, religious, gender, class, age, education, etc. One who at once understands these dimensions of our pitiful state, why they exist, but also can see how to transcend them all. THE leader would realize that within us resides our own greatness. THE leader would be capable of bringing out the best in the larger proportion of Nigerians - not just in talk, but in action. THE leader would operate out of the ideal of making each and every Nigerian happy to wake up each day a Nigerian. THE leader would be so transcendental in his actions/words as to overwhelm the do-no-gooders through popular support. He would not have to ask for political power or engage in political pandering before popular support gives it to him. Most importantly THE leader waits for one slim chance to set Nigeria right, and takes it without fear. Do you believe Jonathan is THE leader? Before you answer, please think and state a few things THE leader would be doing at this particular time in Nigeria's history to set Nigeria on the right path to long-term peace, prosperity and unity in diversity, given the same chance and time as GJ? Nigeria cannot waste another decade of this century settling the basic questions of nationhood! http://nigeria-anew..com/2010/06/is-goodluck-jonathan-one.html |

otokx: You and your friend need to keep the military out of our political mess. The only ones that can do anything about this political marauders are the people, not the military - we have gone over this pathway over and over again, the military only turns out worse, OK! Abacha followed IBB's act by hiding billions of $ in Swiss accounts and that didn't include his spending money. IBB spent $12.4 billion like his pocket change. Unless Nigerians are gluttons for punishment the word "military" should not be in the same sentence as anything concerning resolving our political problems. It is easier to deal with civilian thieves than with military thieves. The fact that Nigerians cannot do anything about our political marauders testify to our weakness. |

You know what those guys principles are, right? You don't? Here it is - as long as they are robbing you blind there is no law, but as soon as you show them they are the ones actually being screwed every law in the books flood to their cranium. The most amusing one is how they immediately tell the reporter that he has no right to take their pictures or film them without permission. That cracks me up every time Kanti Bellow and his elite marauders stood on OBJ's neck and made him agree to zoning. Once the illegality was agreed it became Kanti's Law & Morality Section 1 Article 0 in the elite marauder's constitution.

vigasimple: It is not the north (as in the people per se) - afterall these people joined the east, west, south-south, etc to vote in the 1993 elections against a northerner. As is the case with the entire nation the majority of elites in each major divisions of our society are selfish bastards who would do anything, and I mean anything, to keep power in their own circle - even if that involves holding 140 million people hostage to the undeniable fate of a virtually dead man (he was doing so well before his death they said afterwards). I have warned those in the East whose inordinate desire for power, similar to their elite counterparts in the North/West, is setting them up for IBB's trap that they will be disappointed mightily when he is done with them. The only hope for Nigeria is to work for a meritorious & equitable arrangement of governance. That, to anyone listening, begins with entrusting power in all corners of the nation to those who know their ABC and the direction in which the world is going over the the next century. Is it not yesterday that the year 2000 was declared as the begining of the African century? - it may yet be, but given what I have seen so far, it could turn out to be a century in the opposite direction to what we desire. |

Politics / Re: Selective Justice Is As Bad As No Justice by naijamini(m): 3:57am On May 29, 2010 |
kobojunkie on Yesterday at 03:00:37 AM » Alternatively, Tomorrow, OBJ quickly switches sides to get on the Ibori People team. So Ibori’s people will have no reason to go after him since at that time he will be playing on their side and no more a threat to their side . . . come on.You may have a point there, but Nigeria's politicians are so unforgiving of each other. Ultimately, true leaders have to overpower both groups. Huh? Telling you that selective justice is not same as unselective justice is similar to wanting military takeover. Abegi!!There are two things going on in the above: 1) Military takeover - to which I say common now! You are not seriously interpreting my words as accusing you of calling on the military to take over. Not at all! 2) On what this thread was actually arguing. You claim it is saying "selective justice is not the same as unselective justice", but I don't think so. Don't blame me either just look at the title. The OP doesn't seem to know exactly what he wants to argue. Nobody disputes your more palatable statement above, but much of you and the OP argument has been more in support of what the title says. Call it imperfect justice, but selective justice is justice as long as the villain is guilty of the offenses he or she was accused of. I support the call to perfect the system, but I'll rather have 1 or 2 of these criminals impunity taking from them than none! I do not think the argument is for return or the military or for change of government system. I definitely know that is not about. I think this is really to highlight the problem with what we have and have had for over 20 years, and why we need to work harder to get it where it ought to be instead. We need an UNSELECTIVE systemm – one not controlled or run by the “cabal” in charge.I launched into that tirade against military rule only to show why it is not justified under any circumstances in the same way that no justice is always worse than selective justice. May be a little too much. But jokes aside, such "miscarriage" of justice has been found among military takeover EXCUSES in Nigeria - only for them to take it to the next level. I hope someone is not trying to cunningly prepare us for a military takeover |
Politics / Re: Selective Justice Is As Bad As No Justice by naijamini(m): 2:41am On May 28, 2010 |
ziga: Exactly my point. If OBJ people get Ibori today, Ibori people get OBJ people tomorrow. Eventually people determined to perfect the system will take over. For those arguing selective justice is no justice - that is the same argument for people who want the military to take over anytime the journey becomes difficult with our democracy just because fraudulent people are those that make it to power. A military government is not justified under any circumstance - if a democratic government becomes bad enough the people would overthrow in one massive protest, and the military can help hold the state together MOMENTARILY. So far Nigerians have not been allowed to reach the point of no return with bad governments. The military cuts the process short and then are the worst of the worst in everyway. Whoever compares Ribadu's case to Ibori's must not be thinking for themselves clearly. Did you hear of any charges of corruption or non-declaration of assets even when it became clear that they were trying to get rid of him? No, when they realized that chasing him out was their worst mistake then they started grabbing at straws. IBB, the cunning snake, was the only one who whispered something about Ribadu benefiting from underserved promotion. Ibori's case is not only in Nigeria - he has a solid case against him in the UK. Rufai has returned to face the charges against him, he is charged already under the same Yar'adua EFCC henchwoman - so I don't know what you guys are talking about. Let Ibori return to Nigeria - it is the same henchwoman yesterday, today and tomorrow (may be). The fact remains that none, and I mean NONE, of those accused by Ribadu of corruption have been positively cleared, so lets get the facts straight for a minute. A lot of what we call corruption in Nigeria is actually the fault of simple inability to COUNT, KEEP TRACK and KEEP VIABLE RECORDS. If any country in the world runs the Nigerian type of resource management they would be just as bad if not worse - this is what we really need to fix first! |
Politics / Re: Selective Justice Is As Bad As No Justice by naijamini(m): 12:06am On May 27, 2010 |
wirinet: No it is not! They support them because they benefit from the loot or if they had the chance they would do the same. Campaign against selective justice if you want, but don't suggest that no justice should be done as a result. It is a false choice. All law enforcement is selective in some sense - you are never going to be able to arrest all thieves if even they can't stop you in any way. In our case, you will have to spend the entire fortune of the state to find, capture and investigate all corrupt people in Nigeria of today. Even as you are crying selective justice the EFCC is crying out that they are overwhelmed by corruption cases (Punch - Saturday, 22 May 2010, "We’re overwhelmed by corruption cases – Waziri": You can read it here - [url]http://www.nigeriaanew.org/forum/index.php/topic,1652.msg1739.html#msg1739[/url] Law enforcement is not really about capturing every offender in many cases (except for capital offenses and sexual crimes), but to stop the most egregious within available resources and instill the REAL fear that you have a more than 50:50 chance of getting caught in the rest. RIBADU FOR THE FIRST TIME IN NIGERIA'S HISTORY BROUGHT THAT ABOUT WITHIN A LEGITIMATE SYSTEM OF JUSTICE. It wasn't perfect, but it was a GREAT start. This cry of selective justice is the excuse Yar'adua latched on to, along with his "tout" AG. See where that got us. When they replaced Ribadu at EFCC all the thieves breathed a sigh of relief - she scared no one from merrily going about their way of looting, and they called it DUE PROCESS. The only justice that is not justice is injustice - if you were speeding with your frieds and the police could only get one of you. Guess what? - you are it. [size=14pt]The sincere fight is to call for increased perfection of the system, not to suggest letting one cancer off because you couldn't get another. The latter is too two-faced to be sincere.[/size] Ribadu, and now Waziri, operated under the bosses that appointed them - let's campaign for improving the system and avoid giving succour to those who don't give a damn about the populace. What selective justice breeds is sycophancy, and someone asks why all Nigerian politicians are sycophants and are tagged " any government in power". I condemn the persecution of Ibori, Ogbulafor (for an alleged crime he committed way back in 2003), the persecution of Ribadu, El-Rufai and even Bode George, while the likes of Odili, Sani Yerima, Alao Akala, Tony Anneni, are walking free enjoying their loot.This argument is twisted. Syncophancy is an ADULT NIGERIAN, not born today, and is what leads to selective justice - not the other way round. Nigerian political class is like a huge gang of armed robbers, it is only a member that is on the wrong side of the current powers that be that is labeled and persecuted. In that kind of arrangement corruption can only get worse not better.Worse than if you let all of them go about merrily looting? Surely, you are kidding? Right? The main aim of trying and punishing of a criminal is not to subject the criminal to suffering and humiliation but to reform him and make him see that his criminal activities is abhorred by the society. but mainly it is to serve as a detriment to others that are contemplating such corrupt activities. Once that detrimental factor is missing, corruption would continue to spread as it is doing today.The way I see it is this. At the begining such selective justice is going to lead to tit-for-tat. Remember there is no honor among thieves. OBJ was seen as pursuing Yar'adua's friend, Ibori, so Yar'adua shielded him and did nothing to stop Bode George's trial. Now Ibori is running helter-skelter. Guess what we got them both! Soon they will realize that either they straighten up or eventually pay for their crimes. If your people get me today my people will get you tomorrow. Eventually, the people would demand and GET an impartial, effective and non-interruptible system, but not if they say let them all go until we have complete justice. Fight against selective justice, it is the worse kind of corruption there is. By all means, but that is not the same as giving pity to the likes of Tafa Balogu and Ibori |
