Why is APC government still crying over PDP's 'spilt milk '. Governance is not a verbal war but making the best out of a bad situation. Lai and his government should stop the blame game. The ball is now in their court.
This very blame game was started by a shameless PDP. Lai was only replying Ekweremmadu for his shameless statement.

What on earth do we do with these scoundrels we have in the NASS?... Even while national income has dropped by over 50% and serious cost cuttings are being implemented all over, NASS budget was only reduced from 120bn to 115bn. Now the rogues are buying free cars for themselves even while the nation bleeds. undecided
Politics › Re: Femi Kayode Blames Buhari On Killing Of Sheik Zakzaky's Wife And 14 Year Old Son by obailala(m): 12:07am On Dec 14, 2015
Nigerian armed forces from the police to civil defense to military etc are naturally beasts, provoke them at your own peril. From Odi to Odioma to Zaki-Biam to Borno, wherever the Nigerian military goes to enforce peace, they usually enforce a genocidal tsunami instead.

Under the days of Obasanjo, the army enforced an ethnic cleansing in Odi and Odioma; we put the blame on OBJ.

Under the days of Jonathan, in the early stages of the war against BH, the army did the same in Borno villages; northerners put the blame on GEJ.

Today Buhari is president, the same army is doing the very same thing they know how to do best (ethnic cleansing), instead of addressing the real issue (brutal army), some people like FFK who should know better have rushed to politicise it again by placing the blame on PMB; now this is the same FFK who accused PMB of being sympathetic to BH because he (PMB) dared to complain about this very thing (military brutality) which FFK is complaining of today.

Some of these our politicians need sense, a lot of it. Similarly, the followers (specifically the ones applauding this airhead FFK) need to receive a lot of sense also.

What about TheV oice, St Ola and Ra wani?

Ehen, Obailala, where are you?

Don't tell me you're avoiding this thread.

Now would be a good time to give Nigerians an expose on the questions asked above.
The number you're calling is currently busy enjoying a nice sunday evening, please try again later. However before you go, kindly ruminate one this question, "Is there any current bad economic indices which wasnt equally bad as at May 29th when the hero of lootoctacy handed over the rickety vehicle of state to PMB?"

As at May 29th, the GDP growth rate was worse than it is currently, the fuel scarcity was worse than it is currently, the foreign reserve was worse than it is presently, the exchange rate was same as it is currently and all these indices took a nosedive in less than 6 months of the oil price crash under the lootocracy overseen by the hero.

Please my dear MizmyColi, I am not willing to spoil the taste of this barbecued tilapia before me by responding to someone feigning ignorance of who the real culprits of our predicaments are. Please try and enjoy your evening.

cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy

There you go again...what has being female to do with the emotional basis of your thread?? Remember you and i went down this road some few days ago when you opened a similar thread asking for where Buhari kept N334B you believed he skimmed off the N713.7B bailout money?? Of course you and i eventually arrived at the same conclusion: BUHARI DIDN'T STEAL ANYTHING FROM THE BAILOUT MONEY. I advised you then to always exercise patience in situations like this.

During the era of Idi Amin Dada in Uganda, They had an economic crises with inflation at 700%. You know what Idi Amin's order was to the Central bank governor? PRINT MORE CASH!!. And of course printing more cash without the economic fundamentals to back it up leads to gross distortion in the fiscal and monetary environment of a nation.

The problem with the GEJ govt isn't just the looting. They looted under OBJ too. It wasn't improper handling of security votes....every politician does that. the most damaging feature of the GEJ years was the MINDLESSNESS with which they did their looting without regard for it's effect on our monetary policy or fiscal well being. Dasuki woke up one day and requested $47M CASH and Emefiele simply created an expense head for it in CBN and voila....the cash was delivered. How was that sum factored into the cash in circulation at that time? Dasuki came again and said he needed N10B for party faithfuls and Emefiele obliged. What damage do you think that did to whatever monetary policy was in place at that time? All these at a time when GEJ ANNOUNCED THAT HE WAS INSTITUTING TECHNOLOGY THAT WOULD ENSURE THAT THE YAMS ARE SEPARATED FROM THE GOATS!!? I don't know how true, but my former colleague who is now a zonal operations head at one of the banks in abuja said they ran out of dollars some weeks to the elections because of excess mopping up.

The last time we had such was under Abacha with ISMAILA GWARZO, the then NSA but even at that, it wasn't this much and Abacha as wicked as he was ensured only a select few had access to the yams then. GEJ your hero gave every willing goats duplicate keys to the barn so much so that they ran out of names to use that Bafarawa tagged his own ''for spiritual purposes". They didn't even need to come ask him anymore. Just go there and collect your own.

I'm not happy with the current govt. I believe they are slow. I want things to move at a faster pace but it's only someone with his/her head too deep into his/her ass that will expect any miracle with oil, our only source of FX, down to 25% of its value of a year ago. This budget was drawn on the basis of $65/barrel. Can you tell me how much oil is being sold now? Has Buhari drawn up his own budget?

You guys, especially you, have your minds made up and are only too happy to see things go worse. So i'm sure you celebrate when you queue for 5 hours to buy fuel or when you buy it at N150 if you don't like to queue while conveniently forgetting that part of the subsidy paid last week was arrears from August 2014. In as much as i'm not happy with the pace, I'LL FOREVER BE HAPPY AND PROUD THAT I WAS PART OF THOSE WHO HELPED A MAN WHO WAS TOO WEAK AND TOO TIMID TO STOP HIS FRIENDS AND SUBORDINATES FROM MESSING UP HIS GOVT.

It wasn't his fault anyway....Na OBJ Satan go punish for forcing him on the sick Yar'adua.

my write up is long....i hope you take the time to read it.

The funny thing about most of the Jonathan supporters who are opposed to this because they feel GEJ was cheated, most of these current GEJ supporters were actively involved in the protests in 2012. The only difference being that the Jonathanian fanaticism had not began as at 2012 January.

ahaz:
if you call it a welcome development then tje apc has to appologise to the former administration for inciting nigerians against the last regime over a policy they latter embraced.
Stop letting ur sentiments confuse your sense of judgement and history. I suppose all the NLC strikes and protests that greeted Nigeria for days whenever OBJ topped pump prices by N10, in your wisdom all those protests were also incited by APC?....

A government announces it would remove subsidy in April, but turns around to remove it suddenly in January 1st and forcing pump prices to jump from N65 to over N140, and some humans actually think it was APC (which wasnt even born by 2012) that pushed multitudes of people to the streets?

A government opens its mouth and tells Nigerians that over 70% of the subsidy payments is stolen by a powerful cabal (which is made up of less than 50 people), and that since it cant punish the cabal, it was going to remove subsidy and punish 160million people instead. Nigerians take to the streets and here we are, some smart people in 2015 claim it was APC which was born in 2013 that forced Nigerians into the streets in protest in 2012?

We really need a psychological revival in Nigeria.

PRYCE:
I was shocked when I read the updated rule yesterday!

I mean it's totally out of sorts to gag a particular ethnic group, prevent them from speaking out if they feel maligned simply because you own the medium from which their voices are heard!

But then, Mr Seun behaves like the typical CEO who does the bidding of the 'board' with extreme prejudice not giving a damn about what the consumers think...

I think The Social Media Bill is Now in full effect... enforced not by the law but by threats!...

...And I'm curious as to what Lai Mohammed Told em last month; bloggers I mean!
I'm sorry but I don't see how this rule is gagging any particular ethnic group. Firstly, there are millions of Igbos including myself who don't give a hoot about Biafra (because we don't see disintegration as a solution to our problems). Secondly, there is nothing wrong with speaking out when one feels maligned but when it becomes an outright campaign to balkanise the nation, even if there are good reasons, I don't think this is the right forum.

Nairaland is a pro-Nigerian forum, don't you think it is an aberration to come into a pro-Nigerian forum to spread the message of division?... Giving audience to pro-Biafran topics is like allowing an Islamic scholar walk into a church to preach to the congregation to convert to Islam; no matter how peace loving or liberal the church is, no church would allow that.

You and I know that oil is not in the North but your brainwashed mentality will not allow you to admit this noble truth.....keep wasting your time and talent on futile effort zombie. Oil ko, gas in...

that money should be used to difersify our economy......we shuld build up our Agric n tourism n wild life sectors, these are sectors we can reap internal revenue from like other African countries who don't have oil....yet dis tyrant leader wants to waste d money on a futile endeavour..if u ask me dat man is trying to embezzle dat money in anticipation of biafra declaring herself as a sovereign nation.
Let's stop being clever by half because of some unnecessary ethnic/regional bullshiit. A lot of oil is located beneath the Chad basin and Chad as a nation is an oil producer from the oil wells falling within their own section of the Chad basin. It takes common sense to know that if there is oil on one side of the Chad, there is likely to also be reserves on the other side too.

It also takes quite a huge amount of money to locate oil reserves, NNPC also plunges billions into oil exploration yearly in the Niger delta and other areas till date and these billions spent in exploration is the reason why oil has now been found in the centre of Lagos and in Anambra and even Kogi state.

Until Nigeria becomes an agricultural giant again, oil still remains our only meal ticket. That is not to say the government shouldnt spend on agricultural development. But suggesting that zero should be spent on further oil exploration is in my opinion, not a smart idea and such resentment to this idea could only be because you hear it is in the north and we have a northern president you hate. Quit all these rubbish rants.

Well I dont think NOI has done anything wrong in this one... she sourced for funds, got an approval from the president and she released the funds to the NSA.

However in order to forestall any future flimsy accusations, it would be nice if NOI just prepared a comprehensive register of all approvals she gave for fund disbursements. It's obvious that everything about the way government was run was shrouded in undue secrecy, you cant blame people for wagging their tongues and throwing accusations around when they keep seeing details of fund movement without records of what the funds were used for.

Oh yes, the title of this report was diabolically crafted to suit a particular narrative. This title was designed for one purpose and one purpose alone, to deceive some ignorant dissidents into coming to public to spew gibberish.

Can someone kindly tell me what is wrong if oil is discovered in the north?... how is that supposed to be an evil agenda?... wouldn't that mean more revenue for Nigeria?... Or is the money budgeted for this meant to be paid into individual pockets of northerners?

It would be a very welcome development if oil is found in the north, that would translate to more revenue to Nigeria and possibly fast-track the realisation of true federalism.

My apologies but this is a very dull way to reason. So do you expect the new government to abandon ongoing projects in a bid to start their own projects?... Have you not heard that government is a continuum?.... Can you kindly name a single road project done by the last administration which wasnt started or touched by his predecessors?

Now for all the projects scattered all over the place which was started by the previous government, what sense does it make to award thousands of projects but yet not a single one is finished?... After paying mobilisation fees, the rest of the funds are withheld/embezzled but they still come forward to the election grounds to claim they did x and y projects when in reality, all the projects are at infancy. Now the Op in his peculiar wisdom wants the new government to tow the same line by abandoning previous projects and starting new ones.

He inherited a foreign reserve + ECA of $62billion but handed over a reserve of ~$29billion to Buhari
He inherited a forex rate of N150 = $1, but handed over N251 = $1 to Buhari
He enjoyed average crude oil price of $100/barrel in his 5 year regime, but Buhari has $41/barrel
Not to mention the massive debts all over the place, including the fuel subsidy arrears since August 2014 running into over N400billion (which is partly the cause of the current fuel shortage).

To correct your statement, GEJ inherited heaven and later turned it to earth hell for Buhari.

The pact between [size=13pt]Buhari, APC, GEJ, PDP[/size] and Military high command and the press to suppress information about carnage done to our soldiers is bad and should not be encouraged. Till today 105 NIGERIAN soldiers were killed in what look like gas attack by bokoharam, but the press in consonant with agreement with the government denied it. Haba dies government feel people were not there to witness the killings. Does government think other soldiers did not see what happened? Haba, it is bad, Nigerians need to know. Stop gagging the press to hoard information. APC government is full of deceit, fraud and indollence May the soul if the departed rest in peace.
The so called media ban to suppress information on boko haram atrocities was signed and instituted by your lord and saviour GEJ. When newspaper houses were sealed last year because they reported some damage done by BH, what was your response?... just a year ago, it was even forbidden to report bomb blasts in market places... Following the attack on Chibok community, no local station was allowed to report it until after foreign media revealed the carnage to the world. Just last year, when only external media bodies like saharareporters, BBC and aljazeera could dare to report BH activities, what was your reaction?... I'm sure you were amongst those who also called SR boko sympathisers because they dared to report what others couldn't report. Now instead of you to criticise the systematic problem where our military keeps shrouding things of this nature in secrecy, you are here blaming Buhari and APC for a problem which was obviously started by your hero?

What was your take when this was happening?
