OMG

Who will deal with all these people now?

I doubt Jonathan has the balls to even set up a probe panel.

Too bad, and these people will even have the gut to contest election.

Jesus wept.

sjeezy8:
^^^ thats why I dont believe this report why take $4 million in bribes when you can take an Oil well worth a
$1 billion, like danjuma.

this report na garbage

pure garbage. If Obj needed $4m, Dangote alone would have supplied it.

binhozie:
I have been having constant electricity supply over the last one week.
CONSTANT as in the accumulative power outage over the past week should be about 1 hour
I really dont know what is wrong. IS it restricted to my area, or has the '6000megawatts' been implemented and i didnt hear about it?
I'm worried 

PapaBrowne:
I noticed the same thing though! Not anywhere as good as yours sha!

Not only has the power supply improved, the current is fuullllllll!

I hope they can maintain and even improve it sha!

Mardi Gras:
My Brodas na the same thing here for east o,
Ebonyi state
I'm afraid to sleep at night lest they get angry and increase voltage and raze my abode to the ground 

otokx:
The electricity has quite improved in my area of Port Harcourt, wonder how long this will last although NEPA brought a bill some days back.

deor03:
My Generator is looking worried.

It has NOT worked for 2 weeks.   Just taking this opportunity to do  TAM ( Turn Around Maintenance ) on my GEN.

I know we will soon pay back in due time for this constant power

Strictyan:
i live in kaduna state and i noticed the same thing too. does it mean these guys can actually provide reasonable power supply if they want to. na wa o. so we are suffering just so that some people can make money from diesel and generator importation.

damola1:
Interestingly, this is happening in Ikeja too, I am yet to get used to it.

Eking:
I ve not seen this kind of thing since i was born.I go soon dey warm my Generator

solajacobs:
Its thesame at Ajah Lagos,Ikeja and Its Environs

biggy4joe:
Everybody that stays in benin will testify 2 d new development,i stay in Ugbowo area and the light has really increase by 800% i think we should give them kudos, Even my friends that stay in Ekosodin are marvelled at the new dev, b4 now ekosodin dey get accumulatively 2hours a day.

Ericomoto:
For the first time in my Lagos life. I had light in my appartment in Gbagada for 72 hours non stop!!!.The fuel I bought 2 weeks ago is still there crying for use and my generator has become dusty.I can not believe this is happening in Nigeria. But yesterday,it became off and on again but better than none at all like before.

Mr Kelly:
I was shocked too that for the past two weeks, I have not used up to 4 liters in my gen.

I enjoyed putting all these together, can people in these area agree or disagree with them.

Those 20,000 people who just lost their jobs are additional threat to National security.

Dont forget that their job loss has a ripple effect on their family.

The earlier the trend is curb, the better.

This man must be confused. We dont need an interpreter or a linguistic to help us understand your answer below.

Que: Don’t you think it is time to allow the younger generations take over from you the older ones as it happened in America and other parts of the world?

IBB: Honestly, it is our wish that God will bring the younger people that will take over from us if they are available. I was the one who introduced the politics of new breed in this country.

Que: Why didn’t you step aside and give the younger generation a chance to lead since they are fresh and strong.

IBB: Because we have seen signs that they are not capable of leading this country and so we feel we should help them. May be they are not given the proper education that is why. I have spent 17 years since I left office.
Haba! The younger generation is supposed to be in charge by now.

You can no longer dribble us as you used to do. We know better. Nonsense.

Ujujoan:
I'm sorry I can't confirm that. There's no improvement of any sort.  

thanks.

Kobojunkie:
Lol  . . .  I doubt there has been much improvement. I just got off the phone with home and was told the light has still not come back on for the day, and it is not really better per say. I won't really expect a miracle now since it was only a couple of weeks ago( about 2 or 3) that the man declared this "emergency" type thing on electricity. Right after that he went off to the US, i read. I say, probably in 3 months, we go see how far, but as for Jakumo's, he will need to tell us exactly where one can go to experience this 24/7 miracle!  ROFLMAO!!

let's wait for Jakumo to come and take us to the Miracle land. . . Just hope he has not signed out his wife yet 

lol @ my friend Kosovo

trying to balance the equation. (one thread for IBB and another for other, abi?)

Good one my friend.

It is called HUMILITY.

Kobojunkie:
Lol  . . .  has the man even started with tackling the electricity issue? Yes, he has declared a state of emergency and yes, he is working on putting together his team and all for to work with him on improving the situation, and yes he has promised things will change in 6 months, but last I called home, it is still the same old 10 hrs a week in my area.

Well i read somewhere (if true I dont know) that he has addressed the issue of lack of gas supply to most the generating outlets and this has improved and stabilized the power supply.

Some people actually claimed that power supply has improved. https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-418292.0.html

But if the situation has improved or not, let those who live in Nigeria confirm.

hahahahaha. lol. @ take my wife offer

But seriously is electricity now more stable in Nigeria?

It is this kind of news and performance report I want to read about Jonathan and not just that he spoke at a meeting in US and promised this and that.

Arkison:
Agreed. But what can you say about his performance during Obj, where, the security of this country degenerate to a level never know before. What is his role in: the invasion of the Nigerian army in Odi, ZakiBiam, Jalingo etc. What did he not do in the Jos crises from 2001 till 2007? What is role in the Sharia related violences that erupted from his hometown Gusau. We need to review the state of the security situation under his watch before he can be considered a security guru.

My own feelings he is a dangerous man. He has been responsible or involved in the Nations security for a number of years and he has nothing to show as success other than his 3Stars as general

ok, let's leave Gusau's security performance debate till another time. I am not a security expert, but just to say quickly that there must be something about his security intelligence that has made him well sought-for, for that position by most of the administrations since IBB regime. May be some of the excesses you quoted were not his but that of Obj, it is one thing to advice and another thing to take advice.

I was only commenting on the fact that he has no blame on Mutallab mission.

Arkison:
He wasn't the NSA, but Mutallab inform him first about his fears. He didn't act on his insticts to have to boy brought back by Nigerian intelligence agencies, rather he referred to Baba Mutallab to American Embassy, which was unforturnately also manned by low level intelligent officials.

The father had no knowledge of the exact whereabout of the son at the time he was seeking for advice.

The best advice Gusau could give at the moment was to advice the father to inform the embassy. Today that singular advice followed was the only credible thing for the nation in the whole saga.

Terrible.

The security lapses should be looked into.

Someone could have successfully plant a bo.mb on a plane like that.

What a waste!

adconline:
Do you want to critisize consrtuctively or are you just going to attack his person? Me I still dont seen anything wrong in what he said

I wonder what's constructive about his statement. What credibility does this man have to criticize Sanusi? Under his watch, a lot of Nigerians had been killed because of his lack of vision. He has consistently failed to see the signs of violence in Niaja. Here is a man whose office was responsible when Mutallab Sr informed them that his son, Abdul Mutallab was on a suicide mission, he did nothing with his authority, now he's coming off to you an eminent economist even though he has clearly failed in his capacity as the Chief Security Informant.

I doubt you know Gusau.

He was not yet the NSA during Mutallab mission.

tkb417:
Maybe he shd resign and let the rot continues

he inherited banks with bleak futures, took over an economy with a galloping interest rate, took over an ailing economy in short

pls, do a quick recap of the indices and lets see if the economy is worse off

maybe, losing confidence = not been able to launder money through bank CEOs

irresponsible lot and wtf did Remi Babalola do while in office?
These are chaps i know very well.  They did nothing

im not saying Sanusi is 100% ok but hey, hes got to do this or else, we'll suffer later. His approaches and methods might be faulty, what the FG needs to do is work with him and make their concerns known through the Daggash, Babalola and othe knowledgeable professionals in the govt and not making spurious remarks that wont do nothn.

for months, i can do bizniz knowing fully well, the dollar will not gyrate beyond 148-151 circa, wtf are these guys talking about?
they wanna bring back round triping, authority stealing in the banks?
hell no

The bold is exactly the problem and the reason for the no confidence vote.

He is fighting a good fight, but not in the best possible way.

the increase unemployment and lack of credit for businesses to thrive that his methods created is a big blow to the economy

Beaf:
All these our bush reporters sef! Some still think we are in the stone age!
Isn't it easy enough to simply pick up the phone and speak to the man? Can't their ambassador give reports on one on one impressions?

I wonder o

Some of these articles are irritating to say the least, especially those political articles from Sun newspaper.

They give an impression of people who just sat beside their girlfriends and cook up a story to sell.

I have learnt to ignore those foolish reports.

Interesting record for Larry King at 78!

But this does not belong here - nothing political about it. Good for celebrities section I guess.

So far so good.

Sorry am not celebrating Goodluck yet. Need more concrete results.

But he is not disappointing yet.

Dont worry poster, It will soon fizzle out.

Remember 2005/2006, It was IBB vs Atiku hype. but none of them made it in 2007.

IBB will not make it in 2011.

I have no problem with Kosovo as a moderator - Infact I like him.

He has every right to support, campaign and promote whomever he likes. (including opening many threads for IBB)

I just dont agree with his reasons for supporting IBB and I think he should know better.

But nonetheless, his preference for IBB has nothing to do with his job as moderator

Until someone can prove that he deliberately moderate in favour of IBB, so far I dont think he has done that.

Nonsense, Not a single impressive answer.

trueword:
Que: Nigeria is facing a lot of problems, if by the grace of God; you become the president again, what are these new things you never did in the past that you will want to employ in tackling these problems.

IBB: God in His infinite mercy gave me the leadership of this country for 8 years…. Remember the Nigerian people have not changed, and since they have not changed, we are in a position to tell them that we can do it again.



Que: If by the grace of God, you become the president what new thing will you do which you did not do during your eight years in power. Which are the mistakes you would want to correct?

IBB: The politicians are asking me what I forgot in  the Presidential Villa that I want to go and pick. When I left power, the naira was N22 to the dollar. Petrol was selling at 70 kobo per litre. So there are things that I did that will make me come back.

Anybody supporting this clueless guy must be dumb. Twice he was asked what he has to offer, twice he dribbled himself out of the answer. [size=14pt]IBB has nothing to offer[/size].

Mobinga:
Give your password to mama gee and tell her to piss seun off

lol. why now? leave mama gee alone o

I like ode remo signature.

I encourage people to donate blood, but should be voluntary not by compulsion or by blackmail.

this act in the so called general hospitals is nothing but blackmail.

1st of all, you have to admit to yourself that you fail the 1st elementary principle of doing business. You can spend from your profit but you dont spend from your capital.

If you were not making enough profit when he was asking you if you dont have money on you, you should have told him then. And when you started spending your capital, you should have let him know.

Now you have to plead for his understanding and admit you also made 'business' mistake by spending your capital.

another one.

I went to pick my friend (white guy) from the airport, on our way back he released a loud fart (very explosive) and all he said was ‘sorry’, I could not wind down the car windows because it was freezing cold outside. I had to absorb every bit of that corrosive odour. About 15 minutes after he released another one; it’s the type that keeps sounding like an SMG – pra – pa – pa – pra – pa. It was too much for me, I screamed; ‘won fi se e ni’ (meaning – are you under a curse). . . all the car four windows came down in 3 secs. Till today the guy is still asking me for the meaning of 'won fi se e ni'

Jenny, I used to have a classmate like you back in primary school those days, she was the 'captain smeller' like you. So many times she embarrassed me in front of the class because she always caught me. One day someone messed in the class, while everyone was asking who did it? who did it? I felt a big one coming, I ran to my dear smelling captain, 'oya smell me' as she bent to smell my yansh, I released an heavy bazooka straight to her mouth and nose, to my admiration and the excitement of the whole class.

Needless to say that was the lass day she smell anybody yansh.

ladi02:
unfortunately, i dont think we can do much IBB will be President in 2011 even writing it alone makes me feel like puking

You will be surprised!

IBB will not be president in 2011.

What IBB and a lot in his camp dont know is that power has long changed hand in Nigeria. (will not say more than that)

^^ lol

its better if you can afford giving them separate rooms, if not they can share a room but dont let them share a bed.

[quote author=tpia. link=topic=429307.msg5900018#msg5900018 date=1271371602]when she seriously needs a husband, she'll take off leg chain, necklace, earring, miniskirt, cigarette, dragon tattoo, ear plugs, tongue piercing etc etc, even without being asked to do so.

I guess the girl is still young and doesnt have to worry about making a good impression on anybody's parents yet.[/quote]Exactly.

What is the big deal in removing them only for a while?

11 rounds in one night!

Good way to die I guess, on top of what he loved. doing what he knew best to do.

May his soul rest in peace. . . sorry, do souls rest in hell?
