this dude should stfu. the ediot is occupying an illegal seat. And I swear down, that seat he is sitting on will burn his asss very soon

Sorry, he is so used to the seat that it will do him no such thing. He was legally and constitutionally elected so, why call him illegal? Stop hating and accept reality.

Ooasis:
kindly take time to read through and Pardon my errors pls.

I found myself in a situation where I need an advice.
I have a job on the mainland which pays 50k and I spend no transport at all. I started working there three months after my youth service with 45k, I wasn't satisfied with the job so I started searching for another, it(new job) wasn't coming so I decided to change my mindset and continue this for a while, after my grudges complaints to which the organization says they are not satisfied with my output and that they even wanted to lay me off, (which I knw is just gimmicks as I knw that I am there best staff) I got a raise to 50k after almost a year.
Why I don't like the job.
1. No productivity for a while now, not much jobs bringing in cash for the organization and I ain't happy doing nothing and earning at month end. I have talked to them about how to improve but they seem to want to move at there pace.
2. After the we want to lay you off saga, I feel like I really need to take my exit while the ovation is still loud.
3. I believe I need to change environment and meet new people, since here isn't interesting anymore, the workplace is not appalling and I am tired of the petty shits
4. The 50k salary will always make future job bargain allow recruiters look down on me and offer ridiculous pay.

I got a new job on the island 70k and I will be spending transport of 15k.
New environment, nice work environment and high career prospect cos it's an international organization with new challenges.

Cons
Thinking of traffic, the not to expectation salary and fear of uncertainty, kindly advice me what you think I should do.

Thanks, you may just have saved a life.

I advise you move on to the new job. It's obvious that the current job is no more secure. Not just because they threatened you but because production is not going on as expected. I wont be surprised if they close shop soon. On the new job, initially it may not be easy but, keep your eyes on the ball as the new job has the potential of providing the much needed lift in your career. Good luck.

donphilopus:
Some fooooools cum TANdroids would soon invade this thread and commend Saraki for being foolish. Anyway, fools ain't called fools for no reason, they exhibit foolishness, so they would like a foolish person.

You call him foolish because he is doing the right thing,abi ? Did I not tell you that outside the southwest, nobody will accept Tinubu's hand picking of candidates and officers? Don't worry, anytime Buhari is ready with his list of ministerial nominees,Saraki will reconvene the senate to discuss the nominees.

ibrams:
lawan says he is nt aware of any elections.....so wats happening?

And 11 out of 13 senators from his zone voted against him. He is not even popular so,why does the party want an unpopular senator to take the slot for his zone?

YET SOME PEOPLE WILL OPEN THEIR MOUTH AND INSULT GEJ. SOMEONE WHO WAS INCHARGE FOR SIX YEARS OF THE LAST TEN YEARS UNDER REVIEW. IT IS ONLY A CLUELESS THAT WILL REFER TO GEJ AS CLUELESS. LONG LIVE GEJ ! LONG LIVE NIGERIA ! THANKS TO GEJ FOR MAKING NIGERIA THE FASTEST GROWING ECONOMY IN THE WORLD ! THANKS TO GEJ FOR MAKING NIGERIA THE BIGGEST ECONOMY IN AFRICA ! WE PRAY PMB SUSTAINS OR EVEN SURPASSES THAT TEMPO.

sirdave:
This is indeed a sad day for us in this country. It should indeed be declared a day of mourning. How can a government who claim to be responsible be toying with the future of her citizens. It appears that we have finally entered one chance bus. Nigeria from this has become a dumping ground.
JEJ rejected this when he was asked to embrace it. Now the change agents whom themselves are not changed brought it back.
May God save us from this confused changers.

My dear, it has started. I said it. Instead of fulfilling the promises he made to Nigerians he has started fulfilling the promises he made to the G7 and other western countries. May God indeed save us.

Mogidi:
I thought Buhari met an empty treasury?

Don't mind them, liars !

soe:
lol

By the way ... senate president visiting a state governor...LOL

I have never heard of this before sha...maybe it's just me

It is called consultation. There is nothing wrong with it. Presidents do visit governors, after all.

INTROVERT:
Is $2bill not empty treasury


I said in an earlier thread that governors share anything shareable. The previous set did, the current set are about to start.

Did you read the article well? The president should close his mouth and get to work. We know that they came into government through lies and propaganda but, they are now in power so we expect all that to stop. Is the president saying that the ports have stopped generating money since may 29? is he saying that the Federal inland revenue service has not been generating revenue for FG since may 29? or that NNPC has not been selling crude and gas since may 29? He should start work with the money he is receiving now and stop blabbing.Money received is meant to be spent and not kept untouched for the next administration to inherit. It is lazy children that survive only on inheritance, smart and hard working children make their own money even more than what was left by their father.

Bobbystanley:
We expected you to Say that.

Baba declare your asset now.
So we would know if u inherited an empty treasury after your tenure.


Dont give us reason to loot our money and get down to work

NO ! He wont declare his assets now. He needs at least 3 months during which he would have acquired so much as president, then he will declare them as his assets. A sincere leader should declare his assets on the first day of assuming office, not months or even weeks after taking over power.

new2020:
This yoruba bank want to cripple this Igbo man...things like this makes me mad. I have no doubt they did it intentionally...to cripple his business as the first indigenous automobile manufacturing company in Nigeria. Innoson move your funds to Igbo run banks my friend...Zenith, Diamond and Fidelity! This is common sense! Yorubas are very envious and wicked minded people...implacably wicked! What sort of wickedness is this...

You don't have to turn this to ethnic fight. Banks don't discriminate amongst customers. They are interested in making money for you and from you, no matter where you come from ,igbo,hausa,yoruba, even foreigners.

aresa:
This empty and shallow chest beating indeed a social malady in ibo land.

What kind of world do these people live in?

If you know Anambra and the people well,you wont doubt what the governor has said.

mikkyjagga1:
Wike is a disgrace, if the only thing he knows how to do is ridicule amaechi and his achievements!
But some of us resident in rivers state know the tremendous work amaechi did expecially in the education sector!
In laugh @ rivers people that voted wike into power, when the rest of the nation is moving forward, wike will be busy looking for cars and schools to take pictures of and post to tarnish amaechi image!
Wike get to work!

What has Wike done ? Is it wrong for him to visit the schools that were not touched by his predecessor so that he can see things for himself and continue from where Amaechi stopped?

doctokwus:
Apt.
That statement from Jega if true is one of the most disgraceful statements since May 29.That a man of Jega's status does not know that he is not supposed to even comment on a matter that is now the subject of litigation is very very shocking!
Besides for him to indirectly claim the election that produced 70% voter turn out in the most violence prone state in Nigeria where others had average of 45%,as being credible, makes this statement by jega unbelievable.

And what do you have to say about the results and voter turnout in Bornu state and even Kano?

kazmanbanjoko:
Mtcheww. PDP is a wicked party. During their reign, did they allow any other political party have a position in jonathan's cabinet or the NASS. Now, they wan dey form holiness. Na ogun go kill all of 'em. #ekweremadu must be impeached.

Because they were not as daft as APC.

freedom96:
Hmm.The same pdp guys that were shouting Northerners have born to rule ideology are now happy that these same northerners occupy three out of four topmost governmental positions.

If something goes wrong,dont come back to shout islamization,na una islamise the country,thinking that you'll get tinubu angry

As for me,I no send.

GMB all the way

The last time I checked,Olusola is a Yoruba name. You wanted Lawan and Femi, We gave you Sola and Dogara. Is it not the same equation? So stop blabbing.

omenka:
What happened yesterday was a complete sham that has no place in law and must not be allowed to stand.

STOP TALKING RUBBISH !

doctokwus:
Even if she is doing it on the surface because of the affront on Tinubu, it must be stated clearly that mrs Tinubu's has always stood on the part of principle,even if she is emotional and guided by family bonds.
I doff my hat to her and Gbajamiala for their stance.
The party's position reigns supreme and you cannot win an election under a party and decide to hand power to the party you defeated.
If Saraki felt he was that strong,he should have contested under PDP.
Many are conveniently forgetting that some of the new APC members today won their elections because of the Buhari phenomenon and the APC onslaught.
Let's assume that at worse,kwara had been won by PDP with Saraki still in party,PDP would have got 52 and APC 57 senators. APC would still have had d majority and had produced the senate president and Saraki would have been an ordinary floor member.So Saraki 's just acted treacherous and mrs Tinubu has acted like a hard core pity woman,because without apc ,no sp for Saraki.
I just hope Saraki gets impeached.

You do not know Saraki's contribution towards the APC so, keep your mouth shut.

Unblockable:
Congrats to him. At least their election as Speaker/Deputy Speaker was legal, unlike that Saraki's sham of an Election. Saraki would sure regret this!!

Please leave Saraki alone. He did not ask the APC senators to stay away from the important senate inauguration and went to honour Tinubu's invitation. Saraki's emergence followed due process and is legal. Deal with that fact.

midolian:
yea..But picking a running mate in the opposition is a big blow. And we all know this is one of the reasons he has the backing of almost all the PDP senator elect. PDP can't jst support Saraki like that, he must have promised the party(PDP) some other things probably to the detriment of his party. Its a complete sell out as far as I am concerned. Do you know if the PDP had wanted, they would have allowed David mark emerge as the president for the 3rd time? Have u wondered why they didn't? They had the chance to buh they chose to let Saraki run unopposed. Only God knows the juicy things Saraki promised them... I might be wrong though

APC should therefore thank Saraki for ensuring that APC retained the senate presidency. This is because at the time of proceedings, PDP had majority of members present yet,Saraki convinced them to return him unopposed. PDP could have voted in their members and there is nothing APC could have done about it. Note, they cannot get 2/3 majority in the senate to carry out any impeachment.

Anyi3:
First both crude are not similar, I just researched this now
Pazflor is a heavy, sweet crude with a current production rate of about 200,000 b/d. Its FPSO, which is operated by Total, is located
offshore Angola and is fed by one of the larger fields in Angola.
Plutonio is a medium, sweet crude with a similar daily production volume as Pazflor. It is operated by BP, from its FPSO also located
offshore Angola.

Angola produces heavy and medium which Chinese refineries like, Nigeria produces light which they don't really like.
Please let's deal with facts. It really isn't everything that has a conspiracy story attached. Some things are just plain black and white when it comes to earning money.

How come it is only now that they don't like Nigerian crude again? When USA started their Shale oil production which led to their drop in patronising our crude,China became the biggest importer of Nigerian crude. That time,was their refinery in love with our crude only to reject same now? China overtook both USA and UK in business partnership with Nigeria before PMB emerged,we therefore expect PMB to give them some credit,a little recognition,instead of relegating them to the background and hobnobbing with the west. International politics must be played right by PMB in the interest of Nigeria else,our economy and people will suffer real hard.

ZeezaRapture:
Why are PDP members here celebrating Saraki's victory Cos he is a former member?.....In case you are thinking he will defect back to PDP, let me tell you this..

It has been passed to law that any elected person that defects "must" vacate his/her position he/she holds.

So therefore, Saraki "will" vacate that seat if he dares to defect to any party "because" he was elected to the seat under the APC.

I hope barcanista, temitemi1, Ezenwamadu and the rest will relax their nerves now!

Saraki's victory "does not" signal "hope" for the PDP come 2019 elections.

Even if he vacates, another election will have to be conducted for the seat. And be assured that Saraki will win again and again. Meanwhile, the law has been there. it is only the execution that was lacking.

PassingShot:
Not interfering is not same as not intervening.

PMB says he will not interfere in how they choose their leaders.

It's not the same as not intervening when a problem needs to be solved by appealing to them to conduct themselves in a proper manner befitting of their status.

Interfere - 1. prevent (a process or activity) from continuing or being carried out properly.
"a job would interfere with his studies". 2. take part or intervene [/b]in an activity without invitation or necessity.
synonyms: impede, obstruct, stand in the way of, hinder, inhibit, restrict, constrain, hamper, handicap, cramp, check, block; More

[b]Intervene - to come between disputing people, groups, etc.; intercede; mediate. 2. to occur or be between two things. 3. to occur or happen between other events or periods.

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/intervene

In your definition of Interfere,no 2 rightly stated that to intervene in an activity is interference. So what are you trying to distinct? To intervene is to interfere,period.

Why did they use keke maruwa to carry our president? imagine,he even sat in front with the driver. These germans don't have respect for us at all.

StOla:
If only NTA reporters could be this bold and ask relevant questions.

Not questions in the order of "which Nigerian food do you enjoy the most?".

I salute Sahara reporters for bringing us news from investigations with documentary evidences. Unlike some media outlets who just go to government house to collect their own copy of the approved news on flash drive, with the left hand receiving the infamous brown envelope.

So what answers did the reporter get ? She went to interview Mugabe, will you say that she succeeded? She was not intelligent enough to get Mugabe's audience and you want us to praise her, right ? Smart journalist would have gotten Mugabe to address the issues she raised, even if briefly. But, she could not. She should enrol for further training, I suggest.

AMAECHI SLAMS WIKE OVER FALSE CLAIMS OF VANDALISATION AND LOOTING IN RIVERS GOVERNMENT HOUSE

… Says Wike Wants to Harass, Blackmail, Threaten officials of His Administration Into Making False Claims of Corruption.

The immediate past Governor of Rivers State, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi has raised alarm over attempts by the new occupant of Government House in Port Harcourt, Barr. Nyesom Wike to intimidate, threaten and blackmail officials of his (Amaechi’s) administration, including civil servants into making false, phony and bogus claims of alleged corruption and corrupt practices against him (Amaechi) and his wife, Judith; concocted claims that cannot be substantiated.

Amaechi also debunked claims by Wike that the seat of power in the State, Government House, Port Harcourt was vandalized and looted by him. He described Wike’s provocative utterances as another cheap smear campaign and ploy to siphon billions of naira from the State treasury under the guise of renovating a ‘vandalized’ and ‘looted’ Government House.

This is contained in a statement released on behalf of the former Governor by his spokesman, David Iyofor.

Amaechi stated that Wike had gone to ridiculous and absurd lengths to show his imaginary claims of vandalisation and looting in Government House in his bid to vote billions of naira for renovation of the place.

He said, “I am aware that this (Monday) morning, Wike in company of his coterie of court jesters took some video cameramen and photographers on a tour of the Governor’s residence inside Government House. He took them to the Governor’s bedroom where he made further claims that the place has been looted.”

“The question to ask is, did Wike know what was in my former bedroom before now, to conclude that the bedroom was looted? Did he speak with or review with the Permanent Secretary of Government House, who is the chief accounting officer before jumping into such hasty and misguided conclusion?”

“Apparently, he had already reached a conclusion before arriving Government House, and all he has been saying and doing is to work towards that conclusion of looting and vandalisation. It’s instructive to note that on Friday, May 29, Wike had barred some key officials of Government House, including civil servants from accessing the place. 48 hours later, he started shouting ‘vandalisation and looting’. This doesn’t smell right. I left the place intact. If there’s any vandalisation or looting in Government House after I left, Rivers people should ask Wike what happened.”

“This is clearly a grand conspiracy to siphon state funds in the guise of renovating a vandalized and looted Government House and falsely smear my image. On the latter, Wike is sparing no expense, employing all sorts of insidious tactics to accuse me and rub me with the tar of corruption.”

“I am aware that a plot is on by Wike to harass,intimidate, threaten, blackmail and do whatever it takes to get officials, including civil servants, who served in my administration to make false and phony claims of corruption against me, personally, and my dear wife, Judith; in spite of the fact that my wife was never an official of Government or public officeholder. These false, bogus and illusive claims can never be substantiated but Wike doesn’t care. All he wants is to taint my good name with screaming headlines of corruption and corrupt practices in the media. But, he will certainly fail.”

Amaechi urged the media to beware of this plot, scrutinize thoroughly and disregard any of Wike’s wild and false claims of corrupt practices against him and his wife. He further advised the media to be weary and discard the stage-managed video by Wike purportedly showing the looting and vandalisation of Government House, Port Harcourt.

“The video is a fraud. Stage-managed to deceive and hoodwink the public”, the statement concluded.

Why didn't you hand over ? Why did you run ? Why must your own be different? If you didn't loot them, who did you hand them over to? How can you just walk away ? GEJ took GMB round ASO rock and showed him what he is coming to take over and officially handed over with documents to the incoming government. Amaechi,if you did steal and loot everything, why did you shy away from handing over ? Ole ! Oshe oshi ! Barawo !

Burger01:
Nonsense. NDLEA is toothless after all.

Btw, follow due process and get that monkey extradited to USA.

Mr. USA ! Why is it that USA does not want to respect the decision of the UK courts and government which exonerated Kashamu from the charges?

And in the light of the above,why should Nigeria respect the demand for Kashamu to be extradited to USA?

You guys wont stop rubbishing the territorial and sovereign integrity of Nigeria. You think it is just about Kashamu,right ?

ibnmaja:
Enjoy it while it lasts. By this time tomorrow na expresident u go b.. By this time next week hopefully he will be cooling off his heels at kirikiri maximum prison with his girlfriends.. Okonjo, Diezani etc

So you will prosecute and get judgement against them in one week ? Sorry !

My prayer is that God keep them free from any injury, especially oshoala.

400billionman:
The boy looks local.

His talent made a way for him..

What is local about him now ? Most of you do not know that KCEE was a footballer before delving into music. He played for Julius Berger Football club at the Nigerian premier league, a professional footballer at that.

He has been a Lagos boy with swag for a long time. Please learn to appreciate and encourage hard work so, it can get to you.
