SARAKI DOES NOT CONFIRM MINISTERS, IT IS THE YEAHS THAT HAVE IT.

SO IS 48 MORE THAN 59?

LIKE 16 MORE THAN 19? OR 5 MORE THAN 27? OR 7 MORE THAN 19?

PEOPLE TRULY DECIEVING PEOPLE.

Which ever way it is. The truth still remain that the senate will be shooting themselves if the confirm Amaechi.
I have nothing against him but analyzing the political settings, for senate to form a committee on Amaechis' case means that they knew or have admitted that something is wrong somewhere.
How then can they now act as if nothing is wrong?
All I am saying is that they need to clear the air before the confirmation, if not any attempt to indict another candidate in future will be seen as witch hunt.
Things needs to be done orderly for Christ sake!
How can they be law makers when they cannot handle this simple task in transparency?
Note: I am not a member of any political party but a concerned citizen.

The time you used in duping people, If you used it rationally+hardwork, you would have being better and free from worries.
Something needs to be done critically about Nigerian prison. For someone who just served two years to come out, re-strategized and became better than he was before even without remorse shows that something is wrong somewhere.
The person in charge of over looking the affairs of Nigerian prison and inmate is not doing a good job at all.
He is sleeping!

It is misleading for you to say that Amaechi had a fall out with PDP because he made GEJ lose.
He was not the reason why GEJ lost. Remember that despite all he did SS and SE voted massively for GEJ.
What is hindering Amaechi is his arrogance even in the way he was carrying himself.
Fashola also had a fall out with Tinubu but he resolve it maturely always according respect to Tinubu.
If Bukola Saraki confirm him without the report from the senate committee formed on Amaechis' case, he has rediculed the senate and set a wrong precedence. They should get ready for more.

feldido:
Now I see why The jagaban is not happy with Saraki

Lol

awwwwh that was so sweet.

It is a lie. Bought fuel dis morn @87 No queue anywhere I ve been to today. Stop misinforming lagosians

Don't jump to conclusions, it might be true in some areas. Someone called me from Akute says he buys fuel N100/litre.

Mr. Julius took this issue a bit too far. The fan had the right to show how he feels and he also has the right to ignore it. Its so un classy of a role model to d that.

when showing how you feel, remember that they are also humans. If they do it to you, will you like it?

mayorjosh:
Must he reply...dats immature of him


Replyin a hater means ur actualli pained by whatever they say nd ur also affected whereas it should not be

Sometimes, you need to put people in their place.

U call this rags clothes? just trading on her sisters' popularity! It is well.

damton:
Lawyers been smiling to bank

Lawyers without integrity! when tears start rolling tomorrow, they will say, God why me?

Seungrandfather:
If let to me to decide, I will say you should go. Go nd neva come back. God knows ur oil has brought more suffering than blessing.
But the fact is u are going nowhere because of the approach u are taking towards this issue. Ur clamouring for secession will not be easy cos a great percentage of u are not ready to leave. The question people ar asking is why is it now?
While Jonathan was there squandering Nigerian resources none of you made any reasonable attempt to shout for secession but now that someone is ready to fix this mess you are shouting all over the internet.
In fact, I dear you for once to act and stop all this unecessary rant over the internet. Procure your weapons and bring on the war!!! But make sure you buy enough food that will last your entire lifetime,don't let history repeat itself.

Yet U are afraid of war? Biafrans were not the ones asking for war, we asked for freedom. We can co-exist! Just like Britain and Nigeria did!
Buhari is not trying to fix anything, he is bringing division!
Be truthful to yourself, what has he fixed? Nigeria is suppose to belong to us all! How can you ask us to relax when we are being treated like strangers?
Let mW remind you that the North has being ruling Nigeria for almost forty years. What have they fixed?
Be honest with yourself, all these while, we have kept quiet, supported every head but now enough is enough!
U are the ones after oil, how many of these oil wells are even with Ndigbo?
With or without the oil Biafrans will succeed wherever we are.
And if it should amount to war, we are ready at least we have asked peacefully, let's see who will emerge the victor!

Emir Sanusi self is funny. After stealing the poor mans' mandate, you want him to come and pay homage to you!
Funny peeps!

Seungrandfather:
I was just watching a documentary about the war in Yemen and watched with utter sadness as people recount their ordeal about how they are suffering. A man brought his wife who was hit by shrapnel when their home was hit by shelling to the hospital. The most painful part is that the man said they have not eaten for over two days and the wife is heavily pregnant and her due dates is only days away.
War is bad!!!
If this war that the Igbo people are clamoring for finally comes I dont think they have the balls to see it through. If they really believe turning Nigeria into another Somaliland or Central Africa Republic or South Sudan or Libya, Syria they should think twice because war bring nothing but suffering and untold hardship.
But if they are hellbent on starting this war they should just revolve it round their place and see if they are ready to face the steep consequence.
Think deeply before you act not act before you think!!!

Your statement really shows we are one Nigeria!
So the Ndigbos can go and die and U think U will be safe?
Hypocrites!
Y not use the opportunity U have to ask the FG to let Biafrans go?
The Fulani only invaded your land and you guys were clamouring for the same thing the Biafrans are asking for.
We are in the 21st century and it is not by force to live with someone you can not stand!
Biafrans cannot stand these injustice anymore!
Free Biafrans!

If the customer service is within the company, perhaps he might go extra mile for U by finding out d dept. employing.
Good luck!

I guess it is just a holder for pulling the can open.

charix:
Help me ask the useless OP. He saw a joke online and took it literal.

Haha! na wa oooooooo. Abi U carry the OP for mind before? Has it gotten to that?

A disgrace to womanhood, I mean humanhood!

E don get small change. e no know wetin to do with am.

Behind every successful man...

A senate during the screening of the nominee ( Dr.
Okechukwu Enelamah) has accused him of evading questions.
I guess he was trying to be a politician! lol.
Even though he graduated as a medical doctor at the age of 21, 22years! he was mostly grilled on finance.
One of the interesting question asked him by Senator Akpabio on tax and I quote:
A certain year, he earned 27M and paid a tax of N4M while a similar nominee as he who earned N60M paid N50,000, how does he hope to recover such stolen money?
A minister to be evading tax, what do U think?

Liadi don swallow odieshi! Lol. gun no fit penetrate!
Its a pity he had to take the laws in his hands because he knew our judiciary will give him none.
Our judiciary is sleeping or in deep coma!
RIP to Azeez your brother but two wrongs never makes it right.

trapQ:
Ask dangote, bill gates, carlos slim helu, Oprah winfrey etc. Did you think it was rosy for them all? Dangote made a name for himself in this Nigeria with all the corruption, unemployment, tribalism, bad governance etc.

Bill gates obviously needed nobody's validation. He needed nothing from the government.

Carlos slim helu is mexican and everyone knows that only the strong survive in mexico. All the things we complain about in Nigeria are present in mexico, yet he scaled through.

Oprah winfrey suffered racism and a lot of criticisms from whites when she first started. She fought through and became a billionaire.

So No, I don't need to depend on the govt for nothing.

Bros, we are talking about a country not an individual!
Is Dangote not in Nigeria? then why is the economy still affected?
can a drop of water make a mighty ocean?

I am happy that this news is coming from World Bank not CBN if not the CBN gov. would have being under fire by now.
CBN said it before and they tried oppressing d man.
PMB keep travelling up and down with empty treasury!
A President that has no blue print on how to run this country.
OYO country!

Thank God no life is lost! Its better now than later.

told us that he was given a meritorious award and also ordained the "Aku Di Na Nwa" (meaning; A Wealthy Child) To be honest, I was not expecting the church to be involve in things like this. If is a traditional setting, I can understand. The church needs to be focused in its calling. and mind you, I am a Catholic.

OnankpaBa:
Amaechi has challenged who ever that has anything against him to go to court

He will say that because he has oga @ top! go to court from today till tomorrow, even if you like sleep there, nothing will come out of it!
It is well.

As much as it pains me to say this, This administration is very very very very corrupt!
Kai! N1tr?
1. The senate tried to probe Lamorde, our corrupt representatives said its witch hunt because Lamorde picked on Sarakis' wife turning blind eye to the real message - N1tr. If Saraki could not, could they not form a committee to investigate the matter?
2. The most humiliating one is the Federal Govt., they picked up the case, I was expecting to hear good due to the fact that it is the man with body language that personally took it up but to my dismay, nothing was heard about it. The next thing I heard is that Lamorde tenure will soon be over!
I mean people, what serious govt. will ask an agency to interrogate itself?
Another time wasted!
3. Now the House of Rep. has picked it up. Is this how this people will continue deceiving themselves till their tenure is over?
This is very disheartened!
Kudos to Dr George Uboh who has refuse to back down even though the EFCC is trying to intimidate him.
4. Nairalanders, you need to read all the assets seized from Alams and others, Uboh alleged that Lamorde used it for business before remitting it to the govt.
5. Fingers was also pointed at Lamordes' brother!
I don't hate PMB but let no one ever tell me that he is fighting corruption!
if not explain to me how many has the incorruptible man indicted? be specific, what has PMB achieved since his resumption.
Be honest, I want to know.

His acting is always a sight to behold. Very expressive. Still cannot forget "Living In Bondage" a movie of all times.

So we still have honest people devoid of sentiments in the North?
Yerima, you have my utmost respect
here I was thinking that they reason backwards.
Lord have mercy!
However, this succession should be ASAP!

So huge? But PMB said he did not steal! What a country! No wonder why they desperately want to rule.

The Nobel laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, has described former President Olusegun Obasanjo as an overgrown child of circumstance. Soyinka sharply criticised Obasanjo in his (Nobel laureate’s) new book, titled InterInventions: Between Defective Memory and the Public Lie – A Personal Odyssey in the Republic of Liars, presented in Abeokuta, Ogun State on Saturday. Although Soyinka conceded that he used to be friendly with Obasanjo and admitted in the book that some stakeholders were making efforts to reconcile them, he said he owed it a responsibility to fundamentally respond to lies that Obasanjo allegedly told against him in his latest biography, titled, My Watch, described in InterInventions as Three-Carat Watch. Soyinka, who in the book also critically takes on the likes of former Osun State Governor, Olagunsoye Oyinlola; and veteran critic, Prof. Chinweizu, wrote, quoting a Yoruba proverb, “The child that swears his mother will not sleep must also prepare for a prolonged, sleepless infancy. So, let it be with Okikiola, the overgrown child of circumstance. ”I brainstormed with him over meals both when he was military Head of State – in Dodan Barracks and in his home, Ota – for some time after he left office and early in Aso Rock at his ‘second coming.’ Today, it is a different situation. If he offered to host me, I would wait until he had first swallowed a morsel from the same dish. “I had fully attuned myself to the fact that our Owu retiree soldier and prolific author is an infliction that those of us who share the same era and nation space must learn to endure. However, it does appear to me that there is no end to this individual’s capacity for infantile mischief, and for needless, mind-boggling provocations, such as his recent ‘literary’ intrusion on my peace. He added that part of the intervention the elders made was a ‘cordial’ conversation he had with Obasanjo recently. According to the Nobel laureate, he, during the conversation, commended Obasanjo for the creative way he had developed the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library, which Soyinka, however, described as a Presidential Laundromat and a product of executive extortion. He added that he discussed the possibility of a collaboration with the facility. But Soyinka, who chronicled the various places his path had met with that of Obasanjo since childhood, insisted that the lies in which the former President allegedly thrived were so unthinkable that he and some other people had started working on another book solely focusing on Obasanjo. He questioned the godliness to which Obasanjo professed and claimed that the former President indulged in identity theft. “Our author invokes God tirelessly, without provocation, without necessity and without justification, perhaps preemptively, but does he really believe in such an entity? Does our home- bred Double-O-Seven believe in anything outside his own Omnipotence? Could he possibly have mistaken the Christian exhortation – ‘Watch and Pray’ – for his own private inclination to ‘Watch and Prey? This is a seasoned predator on others’ achievements. He preys on their names, their characters, their motivations, their true lives; preys on gossip and preys on contributions to collective undertakings – even preys on their identities, substituting his own where possible.” In the book, Soyinka also commented on the controversy over the ownership and leadership of the board of the Centre for Culture and International Understanding, over which he and Oyinlola recently exchanged words. He and a former Corpa Marshal and Chief Executive of the Federal Road Safety Commission, Dr. Olu Agunloye, also challenged Major Rasaki Salawu (retd.), who recently claimed that it was he – and not Soyinka – that formed the commission. At the public presentation of the book, Soyinka said that he was poised to draw blood with it. The inauguration of the Soyinka Foundation, held at the MKO Abiola Cultural Centre, Kuto, attracted dignitaries that included the Ogun State Governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun; his Edo State counterpart, Mr. Adams Oshiomhole, who came in company with his wife, Lara; former governors of Ekiti, Rivers and Cross River states, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi and Mr. Donald Duke While the Alake of Egbaland, Oba Adedotun Gbadebo, also graced the occasion, at the the programme that featured readings and performances were scholars/writers such Profs JP Clark, Biodun Jeyifo and Remi Raji; Odia Ofeimun and Kunle Ajibade. Amosun commended Soyinka and the organisers of the event for the initiative and promised to support it. Efforts to get Obasanjo’s reaction failed as one of his aides said the former President had travelled to Ivory Coast to monitor elections. - PUNCH.
