TPAND:
Dear Ben Bruce.

Innoson Motors are not made in Naija cars. They are assembled just like Nissan, Pegouet in Nigeria.

It's shameful we see Chinese inscriptions on the so called innoson made in Naija cars. Innoson cars are nothing but chinko. Low grade and bad engine. Innoson car is as expensive as a Nissan assembled in Nigeria, so why should I buy Innoson

Why should you buy Innoson?
- To encourage Innoson to improve on its quality
- To grow Nigeria's automotive industry by encouraging others to be like Innoson
- To promote Nigeria's manufacturing industry in general
- To save scarce forex and prevent further capital flight
- To provide jobs to Nigerians
- To promote Nigeria's international image
- Etc.

If we buy Naija, we grow Naija!... This is common sense bro. If we patronise, publicise and cherish Naija made products enough, it is only a matter of time before other African countries start trooping into Nigeria to buy our cars and other products.

I feel embarrassed being Nigerian whenever I read stories like these. I just cant imagine what the Danish would be thinking of Nigeria after reading this woman's story.

Eluwilussit:
Awww! I thought it was the other way round. You guys were gloating and boasting of your military might. The NDA target is readily available and very difficult to protect. Dialogue has always been an option, even if it is not the only one. This is exactly how we mishandled the Boko Haram issue at the beginning.

Thank God PMB has dropped his tough stance.

I have always maintained the same position on the ND issue for as long as I can remember, "dem no dey use force kill fly wey perch for scrotum"... So next time, please try and recheck the username before you jump into conclusions. Btw, what do you mean by 'your military'?... I can see alot of you have shamefully denounced Nigerian citizenship since gej lost an ordinary election, hence it is now 'your military.'

patpaul:
Just as you and your co-horts hated the former presidents?

I did not hate the former man, I only detested his lackadaisical attitude to corruption and his general failures; I did not hate the man, but I was fed up with his poor leadership. Most especially, I was never stuupid like some people today who wish Nigeria and Nigerians evil simple because they think it is the smartest way to oppose one man.

emmachukwu99:
Before you behold any disappointment let us behold ur own very disappointment for FG/Military not crushing NDA as u wished. In reality, Zombie means a fool oo.

Are you describing yourself there?

kernel501:
Are you not ashamed of yourself, you wanted them killed, because you wanted there oil. Since it didn't work you are shifting blame, cowardice at its best.

My position on the ND issue has never changed from day 1, so I kindly implore you to utilise your brain next time.

Flets:
You lot are actually hopeless. After cheering him on to foretold economic suicide through force, you are back here with stories for the gods.

You obalaila earn your living from the coffers of lai mohd in APC situation room in lekki phase 1 along with your colleagues littered on this space. That is the only justification for being this stu.pid.

I am a Nigerian who wants a better Nigeria and I do not throw away common sense like a lot of you guys simply because of some silly political sentiment. My position on the Niger delta issue has never changed and any human with a brain can simply do a back check to confirm that. As for you and the rest of your probably frustrated ilk who eke a living from the crumbs falling off the tables of some corrupt politicians, I am sorry to dissappoint you, I am not in your shallow hungry league.

Lol.. what kind of comparison is this?... This is like doing a comparison on vehicles, and then comparing wheelbarrow vs a log of wood.

This is a very silly policy and a total waste of money if its implementation is attempted. Who even comes up with some of these ideas?... I thought this idea has since been shelved?

Straight to pot?

No skinning first?

A very good idea, no military approach can really solve the problem of bombing pipelines especially when we have a very poor security system in the country. I hope this works out for good, I cant wait to behold the disappointment on the faces of the self proclaimed enemies of Nigeria who wish evil and agony upon millions of innocent Nigerians simply because they hate the sitting president.

ZUBY77:
Well, age has something to do with it because if you were not born before 1990, you might not know what people went through with military rule in this country.

Age has little or nothing to do with certain things; a young teenager with a passion for reading and info gathering will be far more informed and exposed than an old man who only romances bottles of kai-kai.

Mumus go soon tie this one to buhari...

ZUBY77:
And like I said in one of my previous posts, if we want such fairness, we have to cancel every damn oil block license and start a fresh.

IBB, Abacha etc allocated these wells to their people illegally. There were no bidding whatsoever.

So if you want to correct the rich serious businessman crap, the playing ground must be level.
But then, I don't know how old you are.

What does age have to do with your point?

ZUBY77:
Another round of distribution of our Common properties to Indimi, Atiku, Rilwan and Dangote them.
No one will remember the Owners of oil itself until a facility goes up in flames somewhere in the creek and the shameless parasites start shouting 'kill them'

If federal government wants to be sensitive with this auction, they need to find a way to cover some prominent men from Nigeria Delta, otherwise there will always be militancy down there. These Prominent men will take care of the militants, trust me.

Watch out how one Muhammed something will buy the refinery in Port Harcourt and expect the neighbourhood to watch over it for him for free.
But i bet my last money that the Refinery in Kaduna can never be bought by any one from South South or South East even if the person is Buhari's friend. Can we bet on it?
Some of you will think i am preaching disunity or something like that but the truth is that i am preaching the reality. You cant eat with your enemy if you don't have a long spoon.

You can't Kill Saro Wiwa, Jail Tompolo and Asari, give oil license to Atiku, Danjuma, Indimi etc and expect Peace. You must be daft to think the peace will last forever.
I am not from ND but every sensitive government do not use force to settle its internal problems.

When you want to sell properties, you sell it to the highest bidder. If there is anything I'm sure of about the present govt, if it comes to selling off the refineries, they would be sold to the highest bidders and not some slimy friends of govt.

So the question is, if businessmen from the south refuse to bid properly and buy these refineries, and then a northern serious businessman pays a high price for it, why should any right thinking person see this as marginalisation?

I have always said this same thing, the solution to the ND's problem can never lie in giving out money to warlords who end up living lavish lives at the expense of the real community victims. The solution to the ND problem should have been to deliver proper development to the direct villages suffering from the downsides of oil and gas exploration and production. I don't even subscribe to the idea of 13% derivation given to oil producing states, I would rather have these moneys used on the direct communities and who feel the brunt of oil and gas exploitation.

What these people need isn't so much, good roads, clean drinking water, electricity, good schools, hospitals and empowerment programmes. But from the onset, the main host communities are always neglected while billions are given to the noisiest communities (who may only have a pipeline passing miles away) and the noisiest activists (or miscreants as is mostly the case) who end up living lavishly by themselves and give nothing back to the communities. As long as the communities remain undeveloped, the miscreant warlords will always have blackmailing powers to rubbish the nation's economy whenever they please.

The former Super Eagles of Nigeria's energetic striker 'Emmanuel Emenike' shares lovely photos as he is flexing with his friends in Instanbul, Turkey.
Featured in the photos is his Super Eagles teammate Kenneth Omeruo and his friends and he said "Too Much Love for me From my People in Istanbul Turkey, Everyday Fun"

This guy doesnt look like emmanuel emenike... or are my eyes deceiving me?

LONGFUELCUE:
The same way privatization of NEPA has retrogressively increased power generation.

A P C!

NEPA wasn't properly privatised, public facilities were just given out to 'friends of the govt' with reckless abandon. That notwithstanding, the real reason why power is zero today is because there are people with dynamites in their hands who have sworn that they would ensure no improvement in power supply. Escravos and Agip gas pipelines that supply gas to the main gas power stations have been blown several times this year alone. So next time you think privatisation is the problem, try and take a broader look of what the situation really is.

Lol... you go fear news na... Very soon they would say Aisha is a woman.

These predictions were very obvious as at Dec 2015 when they were made, nothing special about this.

Interesting... but unfortunately, lies are sweeter and they travel faster than the truth. The man should however do more for host communities and also do well to publicise it more. Finally, be it $900k or $14m, that amount is too much to throw away to an already rich country even when we still have over 50 dilapidated government tertiary institutions in Nigeria; it was a silly decision and be it his personal money or not, things like that will definitely ruffle feathers especially at ominous times like this.

I think the FG should find a way to engage and settle community youths directly for pipeline protection. Contracts of billions should never be given to rich miscreants. An insentive program should also be instituted to handsomely reward peacefull oil producing communities with tangible development. The solution to this menace lies in settling the right people i.e. the community members themselves, and not irate youths only, else every youth would be forced to go irate.

Icecomrade:
Did you say Jonathan didn't work on porthancourt - Enugu express way?


One thing I ve known for sure is that supporting Buhari/APC led government be-clouds peoples sense of reasoning.
Read the two references below and you will be shocked about how much you have been badly damaged too.

FEC Approves N124bn For Reconstruction Of Enugu-Port Harcourt ...

www.nairaland.com/.../fec-approves-n124bn-reconstruction-enu...


http://www.weeklypostng.org/2016/05/2016-budget-see-list-25-approved-road.html

So because 124bn was approved for the road ON PAPER, ot now means the road has been done even though a simple drive through the road proves otherwise?.... why dont you go and ride on the smooth road ON PAPER?... Never have I seen this kind of absurd gullibility until the coming of GEJ, the love for GEJ has totally messed up the minds of many. Please tell me where the 124bn went to for the road to still remain the way it is?... or did weavils consume the money as usual?....

...and by the way, the list of roads mentioned on the second link you provided is not the comprehensive list of roads, you should go get the complete budget from the budget office site and peruse the ministry of works' complete budget.

sapiosexual1:
That's the fulcrum of my post. They tried to hide the infection story, when it leaked, they spun a new lie. If they had told us ab initio that he had ear infection, we would have been cool with it.

I doubt any presidency (anywhere in the world) will ever come out and announce to the public that the president can't attend a meeting because he has one sickness/disease. Typical response would be to simply spin an official excuse why the president can't attend, so there's no biggie about this.

Icecomrade:

Sad
Buhari ignored Enugu - Porthacourt express way in his recently approved projects as important as that road is .

This accident is a head on collision because some part of that road is still in a bad state.

Tommorrow some one will tell me this government is not biased against the igbos

Why do some of you allow your hearts to be so filled with hatred, to the point that it begins to interfere with reason?.... about N5billion was actually budgeted for this road you mentioned but obviously your pre-determined hated for buhari and your natural instinct to claim marginalisation, has prevented you from taking note of this fact.

Meanwhile the Jonathan who you claim loves igbos so much, even with all the trillions at his disposal and for his 5 years rule, didnt think it necessary to do jack about the road, but you had absolutely no problem with jonathan. Instead you chose to vent your anger at a buhari who just passed his first budget and who has actually included this road as one of the planned projects. Bros make una try dey fear God small abeg, this attitude will take us nowhere...

sapiosexual1:
We knew the embarrassment of the truth (ear infection) would make them come out with some jargon grammar to explain a failure of planning and protocol. This government was clearly not prepared for the task at hand, as it may cost us 2 painful years for them to learn on the job

What is wrong or embarrassing about a human having ear infection?... Is he God that he cannot fall sick?

Some of these jonathanians are just pathetic losers.... GEJ jailed Omatseye indeed

No offence to Abians, but this Abia list has a lot of flaws.

MasterofNL:
Tell that to Buhari with his vindictive style of government and 5% speech.

Because you hate buhari, you then wish evil upon 170 million innocent Nigerians?.. such rare wisdom you poses!

Once again, whatever you wish 170 million Nigerians (because of whatever hate you have for one man), will befall only you and your own family.

400billionman:
They are not ecstatic. The body language president says the fulani terrorists are libyans exonerating his brothers of terrorism. Then calls peaceful IPOB youths and pipeline vandals terrorists.

How many people has IPOB killed in their agitation ? None while Fulani are ranked 4th killers by terrorism worldwide.

He also makes provision for grazing reserves for libyans and says he will import grass from brazil for libyans. Thats the reward libyans will receive for massacreing fellow Nigerians in their farms and villages.

Did you see where Muhamed Indimi's son flaunted an account balance of 100 million US dollars in his ATM account and his father is a northener who owns an oil well located in Niger delta ?

Bros, even if you hide ur head inside sand, you will see that the injustice is too much.

You just dont get it do you?... indimi an hausa man has oil blocks and billions. In protest of this, you celebrate people blowing up pipelines belonging to agip and chevron which supply gas to power stations supplying the whole Nigeria with electricity. Now the whole nation is thrown into darkness, and you think this is a sensible payback to indimi or buhari who already swim in billions and air conditioned rooms?

calaway:
THAT IS HOW YOU KNOW WHO HOLDS THIS PARASITIC SET UP CALLED A COUNT.Y.

SHOW THE SE AND SS RESPECT YOU SAY NO.

Like I said, the folly remains that everybody suffers the brunt.

danmasani101:
So according to you, people only started blowing pipelines after a new govt took over.

Do you or govt also need formal education to protect the pipelines?

You cannot force development on people who repel it.
