mukina2's Baby daddy!!!!

I like the way arsenal is playing today!!!

Keeping men behind the ball at all times

Ramsey!!!!

According to this document obtained from SIPRI.. the website Abike shared.. http://armstrade.sipri.org/armstrade/page/trade_register.php

Buhari didn't buy any military armament.. He only took delivery of orders that were placed by Shagari administration before he took power..

The documents is attached below

ocelot2006:
It was mentioned by "Hon" Dabiri that GMB spent $514mil on aircrafts. My question is relevant cos I want to know which aircraft he purchased for NAF. It's that simple.

none...

the aircrafts they were referring to were mostly transport aircrafts including the C130 which were ordered in 1981 but were delivered between 1984 and 1985

check the document attached

MEILYN:
Admit you were wrong or forever remain foolish.

No.. i wasn't

Madam Abike cited a link that takes reader straight to a data on military expenditures from 1988 to 2013..

I merely used the data i found on the link she posted.

So, how is that wrong?

MissMeiya:
sipri.org and sipri.org are the same site. Were you dropped on the head as a child?

tbaba1234:
Same source: SIPRI

Different links..

in case you didn't notice, there are another sets of data on military expenditures on the link in the Originating post. whoever chooses to use those data to judge the post cannot be said to be wrong.

This data was generated from this link http://armstrade.sipri.org/armstrade/html/export_values.php that is quite different from the one supplied in the Originating post of this thread http://www.sipri.org/research/armaments/milex/milex_database

So shut it.

MissMeiya:
Read what you quoted. Then read my response again. Filthy illiterate.

Since you started this discourse with akereconfi, all you keep saying is "read my response", "post the chart" and all..

it's obvious you've got nothing to say other than peacocking around the thread.

Try sleeping.. you need it

MissMeiya:
Read it again.

I wasn't expecting you say something meaningful..

you obviously didn't click on the link...

The data from the so called link started from 1988.. Where did Abike get 1983 to 1985 data from?

Your dirty Arsehole right?

Go to bed sweetie..

MissMeiya:
I'm really, actually very concerned at the number of people in this thread who don't know how to read a chart.

And what's your point exactly?

sokera:
Some people don't know what is expected from a federal government. we need a mega projects from them not a project that ordinary Lagos state government would get done in just 2 years . We need mega projects, every region of the country need world class rain system, uninterrupted electricity,good roads linking all region of the country together , drinkable water expecially in the rural area, and security . Federal government as been failing us since 1999. Let us kick out PDP and try something new . We are tired of bad governance from the PDP.

Lagos State government couldn't complete the common light rail project they've been doing for 8 years...

Good things come to people who appreciate good things

berem:
with all these academic qualifications,the idiotts are still looking for his secondary certificate when he has more than that. The military has his copies of his credentials,INEC will apply for it if they need it. As simple as that!
Why then the fuss about this whole thing? Are you idiotts waiting for Buhari to publicly show you his credentials to prove to you he is not an illiterate? I don't understand o!

If I should go with your line of argument. Then because everyone knows Namadi Sambo is a Fellow of the Nigerian Institute of Architects, there's no need for him presenting his certificates to INEC?

Come on na!!! Buhari should obey the constitution he's aspiring to defend as the President.

berem:
you're good in writing long epistles but you always shoot yourself in the foot. Same reason you were always ridiculed in romance section for attacking Beenkumar because you felt you should have won Mr. Nairaland. Jealousy and being malicious that's what you are.

You have found solace in politics section where your likes are found. Welcome to politics section were your idiocy is kindly needed.

You disgust me.. I swear..

Reply the young man.... He shot himself on the leg? why not use that against him instead of writing these rubbish...

Rubbish

barcanista:
Buhari was very clear in his affidavit. "The credentials are with the military". Muhammadu Buhari was toppled in August 1985, he was later locked up by General Ibrahim Babaginda. His residence at Dodan Barracks was razed and all his properties including certificates never saw the light of day. It will amount to perjury if he said they are missing as they were never missing. Rather, the same military that razed his apartment should produce them documents. I am very glad that he refers people to the military board, they ransacked his house illegally, so they should produce it. We all know what the law says, his party has cleared him. Whoever believe that he defaulted the law should sue him and demand his disqualification. However, I am 100% certain that the general i§ on the right course. No enemy of state can stop Buhari , the people already have decided to vote for change.

I'm curious about the emboldened part..

Buhari's Residence at Dodan Barracks was razed?

I've never heard that from any of the different versions of Babangida's coup that I've read..

Can you provide proof and link to this claim of yours..

Else I'll regards it as a barefaced lie

berem:
The nitwit went as far as getting pictures from another African country's army just to prove a point. An internet coward calling real soldiers cowards?

How ridiculous?

Mba!!! Lai Lai!!!

Those aren't pictures from other countries..

Check for Siriusblack's thread on the insurgency and cure your ignorance..

Well not ignorance per say but deliberate obfuscation of facts

Guidette:
Cowards? Are you serious? If you have or know anyone in the army, you would not talk this way. You sit behind your computer or phone and write nonsense while our brave soldiers are being slaughtered by a ragtag militia that should not have existed past 2011. If not for the president and his corrupt cabinet, why should we be having the same problem of unequipped soldiers with respect to Boko Haram even after TRILLIONS of naira has been supposedly spent to equip them? Who is lying? The president or soldiers? Or does Boko Haram have a bigger budget than our army?
These are questions you should ask instead of castigating anyone who is against GEJ. The amount of brevity those soldiers have in one strand of hair is 10 times greater than you will ever have in your lifetime.

GMB 2015.

You are picking on the wrong guy on a wrong thread..

Henry120 has military background....

This your fake love will for Buhari will consume you until you won't be able to locate your certificate

dre11:
Guy man
Check the link to the thread that the whole publication was copied from
Its was published today and a base article

So why is something of 2011 just springing up in year 2015

The minister of Power was commenting on the progress so far and what the future holds for the power sector. He highlighted projects that are already underway but have not been delivered...

If you read the article again carefully, I'm sure you won't miss this part

but it is believed that the coal power plants could include the 3000 megawatts (MW) plant that is being developed by Zuma Power in Kogi state

dre11:
Does the president thinks that we are fools in this nations

Does he thinks the youths would be carjole with all this promise of this and that just to win votes

All this years..... Why didn't he fulfill all this programs
Why did he delayed to the last minute to start rolling programs that he will do this, he will do that.

All I keep hearing is rolling of elephant project just some few weeks to elections
Is it this programs that money for elections campaign or electoral spending going to come out.

I just don't understand the rush for all this programs and contract awarding at the tail end of his reign.

Dre!!!

Most of these contracts were awarded in 2012. Building power plants takes time..

Here's an article from September, 2011

google is your friend

barcanista:
Lamentation of a certain Jonathanian/TANoid named Matthewbriggs. It is very clear that the clueless President has lost acceptability and his image is irredeemable. You seek to whip up emotional sentiment for a failed President who has shamefully made a name for himself as the worst administrator ever. Bros, your tactics is Dead on Arrival. The Progressives are coming like a hurricane to sweep out the failed and retrogressive government of Jonathan and PDP out of Aso Rock. Nigerians have resolved to punish them for their acute incompetence and retrogression. Call us whatever name you like it is your business, but one thing is sure, the progressives here on NL are patriots, and it is only posterity that will judge us all.

Time For Progressive Change is Here
Time for the amiable and the people's General has Come
Buhari 4 President 2015

Once again you've shown your lack of Tact mr PR expert... You just exhibited virtually all the traits of a propagandist like Mr MatthewBriggs pointed out...

Whoever sees this clueless post of yours doesn't need a soothsayer to tell him that you're one of the propagandist OP is talking about.

@ Post.. We all do have our opinion and most times, these opinion creates bias in our statements and assessment of a particular subject matter.

But we have to try as much as possible to keep this bias as minimal as possible in order to make our arguments as objective as possible

Everything is turning around for Iheanacho's good

malachytochukwu:
I am based in Portharcourt, Rivers State, I am greatly surprised that there could be 24hrs of power supply in this country. Even in Transamadi where I stay, we hardly have power supply for 12hrs at a stretch! Here is different! We all complain when there is no power supply and I feel it will not be wise enough to keep queit now we have been having light 24hrs/day consecutively for 8days except for on the 30th that power supply was ceased for few hours. You may be wondering where in Nigeria this great thing is happening. It is in a village called Obollo Nkwo in Udenu LGA of Enugu State. I wish there could be a way to prove this claim, unfortunately, there isn't any. I am sorry but that's the truth. I hope there has been an improvement inpower supply in other parts of this great nation, especially where you are. May God bless whoever is responsible for this and may he/she encounter constant supply of God's blessing through out 2015. I wish you constant power supply too if you are not having one currently. Hit like if there has been an improvement in power supply in your area.

You are not alone bro...

I'm witnessing the same thing here in Ekwegbe in Igbo Etiti LGA of Enugu State...

we've not touched the 50 litres of petrol we bought for Xmas on the 22nd

Matthewbriggs:
I am telling you.
Happy new year to you too.

2015 -- The year of Speed

Mustay:
'different'?

The same Abacha GEJ honoured? This statement of yours is an acknowledgement of the indictment.

He was honored during the centenary awards...

Whether you like him or not, he was a Nigerian Leader and you cannot talk about Nigeria's history without mentioning Abacha..

Maybe you should go back and look at what he was honored for at the centenary -- The Category

Guidette:
Ibo people are too tribalistic to actually see that the clueless one does and will never care about the east. He does not see them as his brothers even though they worship the ground he steps on. Where is the development he has brought to the East? No 2nd Niger bridge... Even the railway they are praising isn't in the East.
Please open your eyes and remove that block of wood on your eyes. If you can truly say your situation has improved since GEJ came to power, please vote for him. If otherwise, GMB has come to save all of us.
VOTE GMB IN 2015.

Igbos are tribalistic? Really?

A region that is bent on voting a man who isn't from their region, who hasn't done much for their region as you said. But are willing to vote him regardless because they see the good in him.

Can you say that about the Yorubas and North?

You really need to shut up sweetheart. GMB couldn't save your father in the 80s, How exactly is he gonna save you in 2015?

You are entitled to your opinions, but please leave Igbos out of it... Rubbish

“It is not just about shouting corruption. It is not about looking at one person, arrest the person and show him on television.

“It is about strengthening institutions and coming up with credible plans to make sure that anybody who gets involved with corruption, the system must have a way of detecting him and punishing him.

The bolded is the only credible way of eradicating corruption!!! Not Arresting one or 2 persons to the jubilation of the populace while the real corruption still continues unabated behind the scene.

Example is the Anti corruption fight during the OBJ administration. Perceived political enemies are arrested with EFCC but that didn't stop the landmark corruption that took place in the power sector, Halliburton scam, Siemens and a whole lot of others we had no idea of.
