Time to leave you guys to keep talking to yourselves..hope the pay is GOOD tho, and not a bag of rice you will finish in 4months.

Is that what you are geting? funny how out of the abundance of the heart your mouth is speaking.

GMB has till tomorrow to submit a name so he is well within acceptable period to make up his mind i cant see any form of indecisiveness here

Why did he delegate the most important decision every presidential aspirant has to someone else? does that mean he is incapable of deciding for himself?

@Jazzydee, Notobs, Atouke

All your previous posts are anti APC, so why are you guys all so interested in the APC VP position

Well Okupe also has sleepless nights on this..na wa o!

I have zero tolerance for bs, thats why am standing up for Asiwaju, he is the best VP choice for general buhari, Who do you think is more qualified than Tinubu among the lot?

rebranded:
TANoids just be patient we will choose a VP today, from your oga at the top - Okupe to your clueless oga you are all eager to know who APC will choose as running mate.

Just calm down ehn..

Do you honestly feel that Tinubu is not the right man for the VP position for APC 2015 presidential election?

Atouke:
LOL it seems that the General is taking forever to make up his mind, is this how he will delay in making decisions if he becomes president?

I wonder why he is dragging his feet. he asked Tinubu to choose a VP candidate he recommended himself why is the general dragging his foot. Does he think that the Asiwaju of yorubaland is not qualified to be his VP.
If general buhari rejects the recommendation of Asiwaju of yorubaland , he is rejecting yoruba votes, and that cannot be good for his 2015 election.

whitecat2:
Tinubu doesn't need to be the Vp. It makes no sense. TANoids are boldly written on this.

My dear you are mistaken, Tinubu is a fearless leader and a champion of the youruba people. He is the best candidate for the APC vp candidate.

I am saying it the way it is TINUBU is the best man for the VP slot. Buhari will get the Northern votes the SW votes will follow tinubu.

To consolidate the SW votes APC needs tinubu, and besides Buhari will not be able to push Tinubu around and that will ensure that the SW gets a leader in Aso rock insted of a figure head.
Osinbajo, fayemi etc will all be figure heads if chosen. But No one will push Asiwaju around as VP.

excellent point, Tinubu has worked very hard for APC, He deserve to be compensated for his efforts. Not forgeting that fashola, arebesola, fayemi, amosun, oyo governor etc are all tinubus boys and they will work to secure votes for APC presidential candidate.
failure to pick tinubu will spell disaster for APC.
The SW governors are already insisting of tinubu. If buhari veers off tinubu he can kiss SW votes goodbye.

This is what your GEJ/PDP are known for 'governance by excuses' read in lines and criticise constructively! Mr GEJ is known for 'false pride' reflection and outcome of which resulted in age long soul massacre. He was told by OBJ to apply stick and carrot approach at initial stage but refused until things got out of hand before he partially applied it. As much as I don't trust or support America peace keeping mission yet, we can't deny their intelligent skills and experience in terrorism issues which means we have a lot to learn from them. An intelligent question had been previously posted by an informed nairalander which was; "who loose?" Federal govt stopped receiving training from american solders does not affect america in any way! Is it not too late to realized that America or Britain are our enemies...? remember what the courageous mouth piece of the black nation, Gen. Muritala Muhammed said about 'white being the black's enemy in disguise and his further admonishment to recognized them as our recurring enemy' amidst some authorities in africa, Gen.Muritala Muhammed's death was internationally maligned! Have we borthered to ask why british govt. refused to sell certain weapons for Nigeria govt. during 1967 civil war even as they remained our major arms supplier for national defence untill eastern europe came to our rescue. As American government have refused to advanced certain category of weapon to us, the necessary measure and alternative should be sorted by reasonable govt and not false pride of jetissoning useful skills for the military perhaps our solders doesn't need it today which I doubted strongly, they shall need it tomorrow! Weapon procurement for both internal defence and external aggressions is a serious business for the men and not for boys like Jonathan and his compromised army! He also need to be reminded that taken up diplomatic issues against US this time will only complicate things for us. If he could be brainwashed by Chad president who else can he treppled on? MR Jonathan should be very careful and learn from the real men outside the corridor of power.

Useless boko haram advocate, Watch and see Nigeria defeat your boko haram ideology in the next few months, the military hardware our army needs will be supplied by russia and china soon, you hopes will be dashed as Nigeria will defeat boko haram.

aresa:
Now, America is responsible for your crooked, corrupt and incompetent ways and even your safety and security?

Next time you go to the polls, you better vote Americans to be your president and even give them the $6 billion you give to your corrupt military then you'll have every right to blame them for your misery..

You are now revealing your true identity of an APC spokesman! APC and the USA are rooting for Nigeria to fail, Your strategy will fail. GEJ will be returned as president 2015, and boko haram and their sponsors will be chased out of nigeria for good.

aresa:
I'm the least of your worries, too bad you are just to stewed up in ignorance and other societal ills to know...

Keep living in a fo-ols bubble that prevents you to use your fish brain to know that those trucks ,few hand guns and the ships are not what the Nigerian Army needs to counter the insurgency! A nigerian Auto manufacturer INNOSON motors has the capacity to produce 500 - 1000 trucks like the ones you are posting daily, If trucks were what the army needed Nigeria would have placed an order from innoson Motors not gone to ask the US for help, What the Nigerian Army needs are military grade attack helicopters and night vision capability and thats what the US is blocking Nigeria from Accquiring, and thats what we are discussing here not you palmy illusions!

aresa:
Even if it was given to Nigeria because of oil companies, is oil not important to you and your country's one economy survival?

With all the billions of dollars your country budget for defense every year, when was the last time your country spent 1 kobo to but any warship to protect you?

You people coming with shallow and irrelevant excuses doesn't bother me and it's nothing new?

You lowlife learn to reason with your head and not your but t? What correlation has the navy in the Atlantic coast of Nigeria has with the land based insurgency in the northern part of the country?

Is Nigerian navy going to fly their warship to sambisa and kano to fight insurgency? You need to go back to school and learn comprehension and basic logic.

We are talking about attack helicopters and night fighting capability that will counter insurgency which nigeria is ready and willing to pay for and the Americans are blocking the sale, and you are posting useless photos of ships in the Atlantic ocean.

Lagos state government spent N160bn World bank loan to provide non functional street lights in lagos state! a whooping N160bn not me saying it here read fasholas account on how he spent the world bank loan http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/10/lagos-spent-n160-bn-world-bank-loan-fashola/

This is the height of irresponsibility by Gov. fashola N160b world bank loan on streetlights.

Its the taxpayers that will suffer in Lagos , because the state government will pass on the debt burden to them. With N43billion naira a month revenue, Lagos has no business borrowing money. Lagos is the richest state in Nigeria.

Mowire:
And all of you (above commentators) are part of the youths that hope to lead this country someday?
You need to learn some critical thinking and cease your naive, sentiment driven populist thinking. The USA is about the most indebted nation in the world yet she's 2nd largest economy; and that not just based on GDP.

Any government waiting for money from some IGR and some statutory allocation could not have achieved the level of infrastructural development in Lagos in the last few years

How can a govt. live on borrowed money? you cannot borrow your way out of a financial problem, debt might sustain you for a while but it will catch up to you in The long run? Case in point Ekiti State under fayemi, borrowed so much money to invest in infrastructures such as N50million Bed for the governors mansion, and today the incomming governor meet a broke state and is struggling to pay even salaries.

The debt that fashola is incurring for Lagos state will be an albatross for the next government.

Lagos has a lot of financial impropriety to hide from the public, Thats why the state govt. is hiding form (FOI), Only fraudsters fail to publish its financial records!

If Lagos was a business, who would invest in a business who's Financial records are kept secret?

This is outrageous! how can a sensible government borrow N435bn within just 5 years, at this rate of borrowing, fashola will leave lagos with a trillion debt at the end of his 8yrs in office.

Lagos is running on borrowed funds, So much for the noise about lagos IGR, How can a govt borrow that much money in just 5yrs excluding the external debt. lagos huge IGR will just be spent in servicing debt.

the influence of Igbo's of Eboyi state, Abia state and other's in Cross river state and Akwaibom state by the Ekio's in cross river state, through their Ekpe association is a vice versa thing because the Igbo's of Abia, Eboyi did influence them(Akwa-Cross group) because the pri colonia Akwaibom,Cross river worship the Igbo goddes know as Ala the earth goddes.

Nonsense, another intellectual flatulence of a revisionist.

correctguy0900:
so o, u supported d president so dat d students will b packed in one hostel room like crayfish, just d same way we are packed in molue buses. is about quality and not quantity my friend. how can clueless people be advising others self. u and ur President advising amechi to pack innocent students in one room. is sentiments and bigotry dat will kill u people worse dan Rwanda horror. hisss.....

If he had listened to the president the N800m per term would have trained more kids than the 750 kids from rivers state. Do you think that training i secondary school kid for over a million naira per term is judicious use of state funds? especially when know that 266 secondary schools are not getting the same treatment?

babasoty:
When some folks come here hailing Ameachi we the true Rivers people get mad, the propaganda of the APC is really making some folks who know nothing about Rivers state think its an eldorado here, Amaechi is a con man who only builds schools on busy roads to deceive people, let me show you the true state of Rivers schools........happy viewing

babasoty, you be correct man, i am not in rivers state at the moment in 2 wks time i will be in rivers state Nowa to be precise, i will take pictures of all the schools i see from PH to nowa and i will post it on this thread to show the rot in education in rivers state.
This propaganda by APC must stop, if the Nigerian media has been paid to not report these fact then citizen journalist must expose these propaganda governors

I think keshi should do the right thing, The right thing is for him to resign as the national coach, and save himself the embarrassment of being fired down the line, Keshi is a national Hero, He should act like one, take this one for the team and bow out, so the team can tow a different direction Abegi.

This is such a revealing thread. all the noise That APC makes about schools in Rivers state yet just 1 new secondary school in 7.5 yrs and 3 secondary schools in lagos for 7.5 years.

aresa:
Seriously. Why is it so hard for people to hold there own incompetent and non productive governors accountable instead of spending their existence worrying about states with something on the ground to show for their taxes and allocations.?


Just imagine, after so many junk posts, they still can not show us 1, I mean 1 new school built by any PDP governor since 1999.

Jokes apart, are you people really not ashamed that you can not come up with anything by any of your PDP governors in that region collectively?


This is really sad...

you this omo youruba, wetin be your problem self, why is it so hard for you to see the truth? abi because you be APC member you think say APC no fit do anything wrong.
If you think that 1 secondary school in 7.5yrs with N800m management contact for that 1 school outsourced to india for the training of just 750 kids is a good record while abandoning 266 secondary school in the same state,then something is definetly wrong with your sense of morality.

jazzydee:
Unlike barcanista which might be another of your duplicitous (AKA )aliases on Nairaland,Your problem is that you are impervious to truth because you are a master in propaganda, Its not a picture posting contest dear aresa, Its a common sense matter, Amaechi built one sech. school in 7.5yrs as governor, and outsourced it to India for management for N800m when Nigerians are looking for jobs and when 266 secondary schools are abandoned, this is not me making anything up about Amaechi, am quoting Amaechi by his own words, the video evidence is on page 1. for you and all to see.

This is not also about Akpabio as you want it it be, Akpabio record speaks for himself, A brand new bicampus state university built by Akpabio, it will graduate its first students next year, which university has amaechi built?
Akpabio has totally renovated the Akwa Ibom state polytecnic with several new building and excellent road network within the school, has attracted a federal polytechnic to Akwa Ibom state during his tenure as governor.
In basic education free and compulsory education for all akwa ibom students making sure that he is paying subvention of 100per kid per term for primary and 300per kid per term for secondary to their headmansters and principals and paying for WAEC/NECO fees for all students in the state irrespective of their state of origin. that way education in Akwa Ibom is truley free as kids are not asked for PTA,Handwork, development and all the other levies that usually send kids away from school
he has over the 7.5yrs as governor built and refurbished 4000 classroom blocks in al LGAs of Akwa Ibom State if you want evidence of Akpabios work here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=UU44hqJiIK_HYYflwAkOqAQQ. but i know you are too biased to see it.
See Akpabios work speaks for himself does not need anyone to scream it as you do for fashola and amaechi.but you always choose to denigrate Akpabio, you are the biased one here myfriend.
I used to commend amaechi for education and healthcare based on the misleading pictures that you and other APC peeps post on nairaland untill today when i heard form amaechi mouth what the true situations of this are. Its time for you to own up to the reality that both Amaechi and fashola have dropped the ball on education in their respective states FACT!

Amaechi is a learner when you put his achievement in 7.5yrs side by side with Akpabio. Am saying this as a dispassionate cross Riverian who knows both state intimately and does business in local communities in both state.

aresa:
Still, the losers can not show us one single new school built by their village governors built since independence....

I hope that the 3 schools that fashola managed to build in 7.5yrs as governor, you are busy posting all over Nairaland is not like Fayemi's Hospital? for APC has a track record of commissioning projects that are completely empty inside!

Amaechi has messed up bigtime, The second richest state in Nigeria After Lagos has just one new secondary school to show for after seven years of Amaechi.

The APC media are avoiding this news. Moderators front page please.

This is why rivers state is broke, sponsoring APC rallys and APC politics and outsourcing 1 secondary school to Indian managers. Amaech is a joke.

Amaechi keeps complaining that there is no money to build bad roads in the state, yet he is spending N2.4bn per year on 750 kids to score cheap political point. while the major problem of education in the state is not scratched at all.

I remember these secondary school was the genesis of the problems of amaechi with the president, when the president dare to advise a pompous amaechi to put more kids per dormitory room, in the model secondary school so the the school can admit more students, Amaechi publicly said no to the president because he wanted to keep to UK standards.

and since then for 7.5yrs he has only completed one schoo secondary school. Pride comes before a fall indeed.
