they cannot come to the east, south or west so i think its not them.
boko haram have their rules they do their deeds only in the north.
How do you mean?  how about the account in sapele and Port Harcourt.  As much as i agree their interest is in the north, they also want to silence every strong voice against them.

REP S NIG:
^ The purpose of sacking officers in such situations is not simply punitive. It also serves to infuse a sense of radical urgency into the successor. It makes the person taking over sit up sharply because he is aware of the urtgency and tension. that is the same thing when football teams sack coaches. the improvement observed is also because the players and succeding coach all immediately sit up
Hmmms, This sounds sweet, without insults?. grin It depends on the definition of radical urgency u meant. Some could do well while others could be to the detriment of the office. I think what we need is a functional outline of the needs to be met security wise and ability to get the right person without first playing the politics of ethnicity or paddy paddy as well as giving adequate provision for those that would carry out the job.

There is no way a man whose life is dependent on the N20 life would give his best. A man who after dieing in active service would have his family thrown out of the quarters in less than one month. A man who does not know his fate even though he is expected to either die or get result.

We need a good hand, we need adequate funding and we also need improved welfare for those that would fight this menace.
PoliticsRe: Boko Haram- 'why We Attacked Kano'. Who Are These Scholars? by Ninapha(f): 3:13pm On Jan 23, 2012
Hmmmmmm, I hv said it before fighting this people would be difficult without the northern leaders and their governors.  Imagine, Scholars pleading for them to tarry so they are not spirits after all.  

I wish the federal govt can work on this information to  place state of emergency on these troubled states.  I think they would be better off with that.

i know, its all planned out by those interested in making the country ungovernable.
PoliticsRe: Ringim To Retain Job Till Retirement In March by Ninapha(f): 2:56pm On Jan 23, 2012
When i see constructive argument I give ears to them. It depends on who wants to make them personal, We all do our supporting according to either the information within our reach or our belief in the running policies. Making it personal would only show we are not better than those we are fighting.

Now my argument is that the solution to our problems is not in sacking the IGP but in getting to the root of the problem, Knowing the people behind it and the right mercenaries to use. Imagine where u next door neighbor whom u dine and wine is among them yet you cover him expecting the Govt to come unravel his association with them, yes they will but it may take time. I read about the new account of Kano where they were dressed in police and military uniforms. hmmm Boko haram has a very cordinated network both here and outside. In this war, you dont know who to trust that is the presidents problem 2. the federal cannot fight this war alone without the stake holders as in Local and state government giving up people from their area. I hope you hv been following Bornu state saga.

In my opinion however, the office of the IGP should be handled with utmost attention that does not mean he should not be sacked if the need be. What i am more concerned is who takes over the job, another paddy paddy or one who is ready to work then to make sure whatever decision does not heat up the polity more. Democratic Administration is quite different from junta.

There are a lot of sensitive things to be considered, this is democracy and i hope you know Nigeria is not as matured as those areas u are mentioning yet it was possible to bomb even the most central place in USA.

PoliticsRe: “why We Did Not Kill Obasanjo” – Boko Haram Leader by Ninapha(f): 12:40pm On Jan 23, 2012
What is that Sept 2012?


Left or right Boko haram elimination  can only be  enhanced by the Northern leaders and their state governors anything short of this would surely mean a bloody drastic order from the Federal Govt to eliminate them.

If it was sharia inclined, what is their request that are being denied.  Someone said they want amnesty, could it be?

If Jonathan Inherited the problem, what hv they told him is their concern?  They are sure OBJ would not hv tolerated them this far with the milk of military in him.

I can not be fooled Boko Haram has political undertone, they are not fighting for their god.  Soon we would know where they are coming from.
PoliticsRe: Ringim To Retain Job Till Retirement In March by Ninapha(f): 12:20pm On Jan 23, 2012
I will never thread undeserved words with people on this forum that's an assurance.

Pls always quote pple correctly, no sane person wd say Boko Haram actions are acceptable, we are arguing on how to curb their menace without also causing the masses more harm.  First your group upheld that the removal of the subsidy was  either timely inappropriate or totally wrong because of the already tensed society.  An insider in this report says those advising the president to let the IGP stay are doing that because they feel it would infuriate the Hausas, Goodluck has not said anything on this and you hv already concluded he has failed is that  not unreasonable.  

Boko Haram is one of our major problems begging to be solved, We on the other group are only working out ways to solve it, People like Gov. Aliyu who has said something reasonable on the way forward would be listened to because those who understand the intrigues of politics know these are propaganda from people who are not wishing the present administration well.  Your concern is fire, fire, fire, dont worry the govt is not just sitting down as you people think.  

I dont support his award because i would never support blind decisions just like i dont support your calling pple names as it only shows what nation we can form from our family values.

God help us all and may you never experience boko haram as u wished me.

Unfortunately you dont understand Administration.  Running the administration of a country is not same with your committee of friends club where you talk over issues while drinking.  We are talking about serious issues here that require every aspect of consideration.

And if you think otherwise why not call a press conference.  What you think is reasonable is to sack the IGP.  Good but what i think is that people like you and Peterside should keep quite and wait for knowledgeable people to fix the problem. Subsidy is not our problem our problem is people like you and Peterside!

maclatunji:
Just read what you just typed there: does it read reasonable to you? Before Fashola got into power, Lagos State was a Den of Armed Robbers, killing people and robbing banks at will. Within his first tenure, he brought the crime wave down to a very low-level. It wasn't done with magic, it was done by making common-sensical decisions promptly.

See, I have no sympathy for GEJ because I know he is not up to the task. Let me give an example, David Mark may be arrogant and not-to-be-trusted with our economy, but in terms of security, he would have done a better job. I don't like him but I am objective enough to recognise his capacity to deal with Boko Haram.

Ringim boasted that Boko Haram was defeated, barely 2 days later they attacked Police Headquarters! If that is not incompetence, I don't know what is. Okay, tell me what Ringim and Jonathan's clear and detailed plan to defeat Boko Haram is- not just vague declarations.

I wouldn't care about people like you, but it is just that GEJ in his simple mind reads comments like yours and thinks he is doing something useful to move Nigeria forward when it is obvious that we are retrogressing under his leadership.
What seems reasonable to you may be unreasonable to another.  The fact remains that whether you care about people like us or not Nigeria may never make decision on ur clumsy objectives.  How long did it take Obama to get to Osama.  Bomb Blasts occur in different part of the world and till date there has never been a one free nation.  Yes there is a problem here and needs urgent attention but every decision must be carefully weighed not because you so wished it so but because there are one million people who understand the situation better than you and are close to give better advice void of sentiments like urs. .  Do you think sacking Rigim is the solution to the problem at hand. 

Good luck has not failed and if you think he has then Nigerians has failed one million times over.  Because even you have not done what you are suppose to do to help the security of this nation. pronto!

Gov. Aliyu has earned my respect from today.  I will keep saying it, Boko haram is the brain child of someone who wants to drag this administration down and must be a muslim of the Hausa Extract and a past presidential candidate or one who has interest in the presidency. That's why he could use Boko haram and not OPC or MEND.  I agree the Govt needs to do something but Governor Aliyu sir, that includes Local , State  and Federal government as well our community leaders

If we leave this battle for just the federal Government it wd be more difficult,  Bornu state has been tagged the head quarters of BOKO HARAM, till date how has the governor helped in sanitizing his state, is he not the chief security officer of his state?

Stop being a mindless minion to an incompetent leader. It rubs poorly on you.
What actually makes a leader incompetent? Decision making could be either here or there, yes the ability to make functional decision is highly expected of a president.  Most of you were shouting that the decision to remove subsidy was suicidal now you expect him to make another hasty one just to please you.  He has not said he wont remove him though but even if he decides, hv you weighed the harm and benefit.  Most importantly People should understand the predicament of our president.  Nigeria running a multi-party system is one of our major problems and that's why people like bakare who  have no particular agenda could raise their voices against Good luck.  

Goodluck has not failed for now, Its the opposition parties that are trying so hard to make create problems in Nigeria and i still insist that who ever that is behind boko haram must be of the hausa origin, past presidential candidate who has good idea about the presidency  a Muslim and his motive is political and not religious.

His visit 2 Kano or not shd not be our priority. Boko Haram is a brain child of opposition parties. Nigeria is not matured enough for multiple party system cos our leaders are bad loosers. I will be the last person to accept boko haram is fighting religious war, yes I agree whoever that their oga must be a muslim but his mission is political exploit. D more reason it was easy for the suspect to disappear, whoever that is behind boko haram must be a muslim, a past presidential candidate from an opposition party and of d hausa origin. No PDP stalwat wd bring down his party. Leave Goodluck alone he too is worried as all of us.

I wish it turned out well but have you been following the House of Reps hearing on the investigation into the fuel subsidy? lipsrsealed

And even if there was a subsidy that needed to be removed, have they not just simply moved it from one cabal (oil importers/NNPC/PPPRA, etc) to another (state governors, FG, etc) while I have to pay more for fuel? undecided

I want Nigeria succeed under Jonathan but I tell you, the signs are ominous.

Ninapha brother, I am waiting and watching.   grin smiley
Yes i have actually been following up the investigation when i can.  That is the beauty of the whole game, we are supposed to hold our Governors and LGACs accountable and thank God they are closer to us. 

You see we need one good shot to start the cleansing and i believe that shot is the fuel subsidy, dont be surprised if u see the govt regretting removing it cos they never envisaged it would open up closed wounds.


You need not pay more for fuel rather use less fuel that way Govt would also spend less on subsidy and more on infrastructure.  No more frivolities and till morning genset.

@Pukka,

Thanks and I am sure we are all interested in seeing a New Nigeria, we all agree there is a problem, just that we have different perspective about the solving it, that's the most important thing to us and there is no one accurate way to getting that solution, we will keep disagreeing to agree untill things get stitched up.

I agree with u it was wrongly timed, i was a victim too and it was not funny. what makes the difference was i looked beyond the harshness focusing on the realities ahead. Subsidy removal would create more awareness on the level of corruption we hv been saddled with.

I hv on some occasions criticized the Presido, i am only for good policies and its subsequent implementation. If he gets it going thumb up and if he gets it wrong thumb down. grin grin

Let me give you a few examples. 

1. Who imposed the removal of subsidy on them at the time they did and the manner they went about it?

2. How come the President exonerated MEND from the Ocober 1, 2010 bombing (without/before investigation) and said he knew those that did it?

3. How come soldiers were deployed to quell peaceful protests in a democracy?

4. What happened to the external reserves account?

5. Who imposed the thoughtless and wasteful 2012 budget on them?
Who are them?

Now on Fuel subsidy, on what context are you stamping it imposition.  He is the president who is running things in this country and is at liberty to dish out policies within his official powers.  We all may not like the policy but that does not remove his authority to such duties so.  By the way who says Subsidy is not good for the nation, u hv your opinion on it anyway.


Hv you evidence that it was MEND on the other hands, there is always a first information on every activity in a country where u hv security operative what is difficult is to get to the actual culprits, i may not say he was right yet he may be responding according to first hand informations submitted to him before the tragedy.  Then how come Iheanacho was fired? hv u asked why?

I suppose this face-off was between NLC and FG, now they say lets walk away not because we are tired but because we want to watch, ans some jobless and attention-seeking lagosians says no, this is Nigeria and not lagosria.  He has the solemn right to maintain peace in his regime.

External Reserve Account?  Composition of External Reserves
The Central Bank of Nigeria Act 1991 vests the custody and management of the country’s external reserves in the Central Bank of Nigeria. Ownership Structure of Nigeria’s External Reserves
Nigeria’s external reserves comprise of three components namely, the federation, the federal government and the Central Bank of Nigeria portions. So we need all the former heads of states and CBN governors  including The dead ones to answer us.  Everything is not right here but it did not start with Goodluck!

Public Sector Uses

    Debt Relief Deal
    Paris Club - USD12.4 billion
    London Club - USD0.5 billion •
    Annual Debt service payments (now mainly Multilateral Institutions)
    WDAS sales in respect of States and other Government agencies
    Joint Venture Cash call payments
    Infrastructural development (Power, Railway/Roads)
    Contributions and subventions (International Organizations & Nigerian Embassies and High Commissions)
    Other public sector uses (Estacodes, Government LCs)

You see!  Yes we need accountability but where do we start?

Budgets?  u remember its a financial plan or proposal for a country which puts into consideration income generation and anticipated expenditure.  I tot u were going to argue on the appropriation. He need not impose it, we hv our representatives in the house.
