RIP to the dead officer, may God grant his family the fortitude to bear this lost.
This is a sad development in our nation, 500,000 for a man killed in the line of duty?
Dat barely cover the funeral alone.
We pay militants billions of naira every year but when an officer of the law dies, we pay them 500,000.
The government paid 100 million to the family of the slained leader of boko haram (a terrorist) but when a law enforcement officer dies, well let the dead bury their dead.
How can we blame this guys when they refuse to answer any call for help if this is how they are treated when killed in the line of duty?

Cos pple have now realised that instead of being the opposition party, they are just another imposition party.

Well, it wasn't really 'the best governor award' right?
No cause for alarm now but just incase it was the best governor award, then i guess it is safe to assume ghanians are just trying to play act us

mkmyers45: Indeed.....Remember that the last election's scenario was also very similar so its still possible for Obama to get a landlside

There is no way this election will be a landslide, its gonna be pretty close.
I personally favour obama to win but i don't see getting more than 285 electoral votes even if he does win.

Bilms, u dey lie no be small o. Which traffic light dey akure
U mean the one at cathedra where all the lights are yellow and they all go on and off at the same time?
Or u mean that at a division and old garage where no traffic light has even been fixed to the poles?
Abeg try to confirm all these things/lies u re posting here b4 u do next time, ok?

Thats a nice development, but they should also try to beef up security at prisons cos the rate at which boko boys set prisoners free is worrisome.
Infact i think a better idea will be to build a maximum security prison specifically for them.
On a different issue, howabout the senate set a definite jail time for stealing/looting public funds.
25-30 years wouldn't be a bad idea.

Of course he is eligible, he shouldn't be worried about this.
He should focus on how to convince the voters he deserves a second chance.

Hahaha, this is freaking hilarious.
Even though we know anything is possible in this nation, there are still some news that surprises us.
Anyways, now that the commissioner for power is missing i think pple resident in rivers state can also exect their power supply missing.

No good btw them, but when i think about the insecurity we are experiencing right now, am leaning towards obj.

Abeg, he can easily build another from his 1billion naira feeding allowance.
My heart goes out to those ordinary nigerians affected by the floods though.

That's a nice suggestion by fashola.
Here is mine though, howabout u start moving around also with just two or three cars instead of the usual motorcade comprising over 10 cars.

1 billion for refreshment? Don't they get paid their salaries?
Am really confused here, how does this work?
Do people now go to work for refreshment or what?
This is very............Nigeria.

Of course, it's a great idea. But do i think mimiko will build it? Hmmmm..............NO, we are talking about a government that couldn't complete the dualisation of a road that's barely 2km long in 4 years.

U just gotta wonder what this nation is turning into when a terrorist group is condemning the supposedly 'honest citizen' of the nation.

jigawatts: I just dont wanna imagine what the family is going thru mehnn ..... , My own popsy has been kidnapped since June 10, 2012 (Alhaji Gawat) making it 93 days today...... Nigeria is turning to sumtin else GOD HELP US

seriously dude? Ur popsy is missing and u re still on nairaland?
No offence o, but do u really hate him dat much?

@op, why don't u compare urself with romney in a debate first? We all know our president is neither a great debater nor a good communicator.
FYI, romney beat obama in the debate cos it was about the economy. Obama had to defend his record on the economy thereby putting him on d defensive.
Wait for the upcoming debates about their plans and foreign policies for the next 4 years, i can bet u obama is gonna whup him.

perez019: Ask obamas wife to speak Ibo too.. U are just so myopic with your slavery mentality.. Can u speak english better than a british? You went to school to learn how to speak english, So how official is English language to us.

if english isn't the official language in this nation, what is then? Do u communicate with ur coworkers in ur dialect? When d president addresses the nation, what language does he speak? Mugu.
Where in my comment did i imply she has to communicate better in english than a brit?
Don't just start typing when u wanna comment next time, think first.

Negotiating with a terrorist is now our government's solution to curbing terrorism.
Yar'adua set this as a precedent which is very wrong.
I am of the opinion dat if he had confronted the militant issue head-on and dealt with them, this boko haram boy would have a rethink b4 taking arms against d government.

Ricky_Ross: Who is this man? He is probably a politician tryin to make some useless noise to become popular.

If given the chance this man will steal more, I have seen many of his types in Nigeria. I have learn never to trust most politicians, coz they are all the same...

i think he was one of them senators trading blows in the senate chamber.

In a nation where d first lady can barely communicate in the official language (english) and we are already thinking of adding chinese to the curriculum.
How about we just stick with english for now and ensure it is being taught properly in all our schools.

When did this guy became ronaldo and what road is he talking about?
Like he constructed any, mugu.

I searched for d right word to describe the man for over 30 mins but couldn't find any.
The man is simply proof to claims from scientist that (some) men evolve from chimpanzee.
He behaved like an animal, hell he even lied like an animal.
How d hell will a ceiling fan cut a woman in d eye?

..

Questions 22 - 31 are not making sense. He has his free will so he can do whatever he likes. Seriously dis oni guy is a thief. Wasn't he d same guy that went to adaba to air his grievance that mimiko didn't give gim juicy contracts?
Anyways na dem sabi, too bad there isn't much option for ondo pple. Would have prefer any other candidate apart from mimiko, aketi n oke 4 governor.

Not south east roads alone, most federal roads.

It has no situation in my area at all. Since barth resigned, electricity went missing in my area.
We haven't seen it since friday.

Various signs churches put up to get members.
"if u can't sleep, don't count sheep. Talk to the shepherd".
"running low on faith? Stop in for a fill-up".
"This is a ch--ch. What is missing?"
"forbidden fruit creates many jams".
"looking at the way some people live, they ought to obtain eternal live insurance soon".
"if u don't like how u were born, try being born again".
"come work 4 d Lord. The work is hard, the hours are long and the pay is low. But the retirement benefits are out of this world".
Now my favorite, very applicable to this nation. Here it comes....
"God so loved the world that he did not send a committee".

Feel free to add urs.

The priest of a small village was very fond of his flock of ten hens and a cockerel.
He kept them in a hen house behind the parish, but one saturday night the cockerel was missing.
The priest suspecting foul play decided to say something about it at church the next morning.
At mass, he asked the congregation, has anyone got a c**k? To which all the men stood up.
"no, no," he said, somewhat flustered, "that's not what i meant". Has anybody seen a c**k? All the women stood up.
"No, no", he said, "that not what i meant either. Has anyone seen a c**k that doesn't belong to them?
Half the women stood up.
"no,no", he said, now thoroughly embarrassed. Parhaps i should rephrase the question. Has anybody here seen my c**k? All the choirboys stood up.

Let him name d 64 projects he embarked on, am sure he meant fountain, recreational facility and shuttle bus.

@op, u sure u are not d one carrying a stern looking face about decieving urself it is everyone?

The man doesn't even know what he is saying, he wants us to have good road corridors devoid of potholes by dec 2012 yet u re not fixing till 2013.
Will d potholes on all federal roads just dissappear without anyone working on them b4 dec 2012?
Its like there is something with this administration and dec 2012 cos every lie now has dec 2012 as its expiring date.
