What a heartless fellow, she is one of those giving Nigeria a bad name. A more vicious person is that 2 kobo judge who is restraining the police from doing their job. |
Pangea:Please Name your "prestigious" school if you ever attended one. If you are embittered by this news you can #goanddie |
d33types:Hatred does one thing and one thing alone, it destroys. If you don't like the news you can write to Yale university stating why she doesn't deserve it with empirical evidence not hearsay. |
The headline should have been "expired and rejected PDP senators defect to APC" |
Now I believe that to hide something from a black man just put it in writing. The full report is out there but many commenters prefer to listen to sanusi. Whatever Sanusi said has become their life's truth. SMH. |
efilefun:I hope your crying continues because I see no sense in your post , just the old corruption mantra. I doubt you even understand what "treasury" means. |
Babaonechance won't stop embarrassing himself , it is okay when his boys murder and maim Nigerians up north because it is their right to kill. A wise general chooses his battle carefully. |
She may retain her full maiden name if she likes, I see no reason in upholding meaningless british culture in this 21st century. |
searching4lovee:Anyone who told you that ignorance is bliss has deceived you, you need to "know" before you comment. |
bettercreature:You can make all the excuse in the world to boost your ego, but you must realise that successful people do not explain away their failures , they tackle them head on. |
I opened this thread hoping to see myriads of biblical and non-biblical evidence supporting the OP's view but all I got were unsubstantiated opinion. This thread should be retitled "my views on creation". |
I wonder how this woman will survive when there is no more GEJ to blame. |
As usual , the thoughtless ones would jump onto this thread and shout corruption. They forgot that no party can survive without money and also a document showing a party member being paid for campaign purposes explains nothing. My finger is crossed until any of theses noise makers can prove that their party didn't disburse any fund to their agents. By the way, I expected to see the trillion Naira tellers, not millions. |
Contrary to what many might think, this rejection of SA by Israel has nothing to do with SA xenophobic leanings , it is because of SA support for the Palestinians. Netanyahu could care less who loves or hate them self in Africa so long as his Israeli-Palestinian policies are not challenged. |
Wsdm:What a comment ! While it is true that those who haven't been to the north will have no idea of the rot up there, your claim of a second class in north challenging a first class from south is folly, because the northerner always lag behind in every merit based federal programme. |
trippy:Another thoughtless escapee suffering from GEJophobia |
Physical activity has little role in tackling obesity - and instead public health messages should squarely focus on unhealthy eating, doctors say. In an editorial in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, three international experts said it was time to "bust the myth" about exercise. They said while activity was a key part of staving off diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and dementia, its impact on obesity was minimal. Instead excess sugar and carbohydrates were key. The experts, including London cardiologist Dr Aseem Malhotra, blamed the food industry for encouraging the belief that exercise could counteract the impact of unhealthy eating. Dr Aseem Malhotra, Cardiologist They even likened their tactics as "chillingly similar" to those of Big Tobacco on smoking and said celebratory endorsements of sugary drinks and the association of junk food and sport must end. They said there was evidence that up to 40% of those within a normal weight range will still harbour harmful metabolic abnormalities typically associated with obesity. But despite this public health messaging had "unhelpfully" focused on maintaining a healthy weight through calorie counting when it was the source of calories that mattered most - research has shown that diabetes increases 11-fold for every 150 additional sugar calories consumed compared to fat calories. And they pointed to evidence from the Lancet global burden of disease programme which shows that unhealthy eating was linked to more ill health than physical activity, alcohol and smoking combined. 'Unscientific' Dr Malhotra said: "An obese person does not need to do one iota of exercise to lose weight, they just need to eat less. My biggest concern is that the messaging that is coming to the public suggests you can eat what you like as long as you exercise. "That is unscientific and wrong. You cannot outrun a bad diet." Overweight man eating fast food There is no requirement for people with treatable health problems to get help under the current system But others said it was risky to play down the role of exercise. Prof Mark Baker, of the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence, which recommends "well-balanced diets combined with physical activity", said it would be "idiotic" to rule out the importance of physical activity. A Food and Drink Federation spokeswoman said: "The benefits of physical activity aren't food industry hype or conspiracy, as suggested. A healthy lifestyle will include both a balanced diet and exercise." She said the industry was encouraging a balanced diet by voluntarily providing clear on-pack nutrition information and offering products with extra nutrients and less salt, sugar and fat. "This article appears to undermine the origins of the evidence-based government public health advice, which must surely be confusing for consumers," she added. |
This list is a fairy tale as it is not based on any empirical data. The fact that your bandwith was quickly exhausted doesn't make the ISP guilty, you need to measure your data consumption through a third party means before you can make much conclusion. |
Within a few days USA has suddenly turned to Nigeria's friend. It is common knowledge that America is like the devil, they both give you a hen and ask for your child in return. #ShineYourEyesNigeria |
The Commonwealth Youth Council has urged the President-elect, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), to abolish foreign scholarships in the country after he assumes office on May 29. In a statement issued by the CYC chairperson, Ahmed Adamu, in London on Saturday, the council said close to N100bn is spent on foreign scholarships annually by the Federal Government. According to Adamu, who is also an economic expert, the expenditure had resulted in the abuse of the naira and triggered devaluation of the currency. He said, “This figure is extremely higher when adding the cost of other self-sponsored foreign education programmes and I am using this medium to call on the Nigerian President-elect to consider this as one of the immediate policies he will adopt in the first 100 days in office. “Nigerians and other internationals studying in United Kingdom contribute 2.3 per cent to Britain’s Gross Domestic Product growth and their patronages contribute 2.6 per cent to the overall UK employment. How different are foreign universities from Nigerian universities? “We may talk about access to energy, Information Technology, resources, facilities, conducive atmosphere and efficiency, but all these can be provided in all Nigerian universities with the savings that will eventuate from abolishing foreign scholarships. If you divide N100 billion by the number of federal universities, you will see that each university will get N2.5 billion a year.” |
ohisola1:Your attempt to point fingers will fail, we were made to believe that APC didn't spend much , that they relied on 78 million naira donated by supporters. Now tell me where the hell did only akwaibom get 350 million from ? This is probably a fraction of the amount allocated to akwaibom. APC lies! |
This is the season of denial episode 2 |
The 19 All Progressives Congress lawmakers in Ekiti State House of Assembly have vowed to go ahead with the impeachment proceedings against Governor Ayodele Fayose. The embattled Speaker, Dr. Adewale Omirin, has forwarded a notice of gross misconduct to the governor and his deputy, Dr. Olusola Eleka. Omirin has also requested the Chief Judge of Ekiti, Justice Ayodeji Daramola, to raise a seven-man panel to investigate the two over allegations of impunity, violence and stalking, among other constitutional breaches levelled against them. Omirin confirmed to The PUNCH on Wednesday that the impeachment plot was still in top gear and would be followed to the end. But the governor has warned the lawmakers against continuing with the plot, saying their action will boomerang as the people of the state will resist it. The labour unions comprising the Nigeria Labour Congress, Trade Union Congress and Joint Negotiating Council also planned to host a solidarity forum for the governor on Thursday (today) and Friday. Omirin, who spoke through his media aide, Mr. Wole Olujobi, said, “The impeachment process will proceed; we are expecting the Chief Judge to act soon on our letter asking him to set up a seven-member panel. There is no going back on the process. The matter is set for the next stage. “It is about the governor breaching the Constitution. We are guided by the Constitution. There are laid down rules and regulations that guide the conduct of public office holders. Once you commit an infraction, you have to face the consequence. “The governor has to answer the allegations; the Assembly will give him a fair hearing. We will follow every step.” Omirin countered claims that the governor had not been served the impeachment notice. “If he was not aware, why did he go to court to try to stop the impeachment plot? What is the basis if he was not served? As far as we are concerned, he has been served. “We’ll resume very soon. At the appropriate time, the Speaker will reconvene the Assembly.” But reacting, Fayose, who said he was not shocked by the decision of the APC lawmakers to continue with the impeachment plot, described their action “as an idea that is distant to common sense.” Speaking through his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Idowu Adelusi, the governor said that the plot was not a war against him but war against the people of Ekiti State and God. source: http://www.punchng.com/politics/ekiti-apc-lawmakers-insist-on-fayoses-impeachment/ |
kestolove95:Has anything good ever happened in your life ? Slaves always kowtow to their masters even though they had nothing to gain from them. It is thanks to progressive organizations like Ohaneze that the dark cloud of hatred and propaganda was kept at bay. |
walemoney007:Success must mean something different in your personal dictionary, suddenly the lack of job opportunities and generation of 4000megawatt had become a yardstick for "success". |
Where are all the champions of jungle justice , you should all come here and celebrate another "victory". #rejectjunglejustice |
No fewer than two people reportedly died while property worth millions of naira were destroyed following a clash between Fulani traders and Yoruba natives of Oro-Ago in Ifelodun Local Government Area of Kwara State. Our correspondent gathered on Wednesday that some irate youths allegedly razed at least five vehicles and 10 motorcycles said to be owned by some Fulani people in the ensuing pandemonium. A source, who pleaded anonymity for fear of attack, told journalists in Ilorin that the mayhem was allegedly caused by Fulani-Bororo settlers who, allegedly flouted a rule in the area that the settlers should never bring arms, ammunition and fighting sticks from their settlements to market on Oro Ago market days. He stated that some armed Fulani traders came to the market on Monday. He added that the vigilance team and hunters in the area accosted them, seized the weapons from them and later kept them at a place in Oro Ago town. The source said the leader of the Fulani people in the area, popularly called Serikin Fulani, surprisingly stormed the place where the ammunition were kept with his people, carted away the weapons seized by the vigilance team and handed them back to the Fulani traders. The source said the hunters and vigilance team attempted to retrieve the re-captured weapons from the Fulani people. According to him, violent clash erupted between the two camps, leading to a breakdown of laws and order as weapons were allegedly used freely by the warring parties. Police Public Relations Officer, Kwara State Police Command, Mr. Ajayi Okasanmi, said it was untrue that seven people were killed during the clash. He claimed that two people were killed. source: http://www.punchng.com/news/two-die-as-fulani-yoruba-clash-in-kwara/ |
While Buhari continuously deny the promises he made to Nigerians(Chibok girls, Book haram timeline etc), he had tenaciously held on to those he made to foreign powers, One wonders if he is Nigerian presdent-elect or the NATO's ambassador to Nigeria. |
abduljabbar4:Bihari will soon find out he is a toothless dog when he realizes there are three arms of government in Nigeria, by then you will defend him with several excuses of why he can't act. For now you should make yourself happy by fantasizing how Bihari will rule you will need it as a shock absorber. |
Some gullible ones will believe all the content of this list, only careful analysis can discern the few truth from the sensational headlines. A sum ($20 or $40 billion dollar) which is more than a years budget got missing and the government could still function ? The compiler of the so called top list surely didn't do his assignment. May 29 is close and I would expect the corruption champion to prosecute the guilty ones, but he failed to get any high profile conviction then it is clear that it is arise from the beginning. |
This man would not learn , this is the same acting that caused him his senate seat. |
The man of the people , Ayodele Fayose , ride on in victory. |
