It's an undeniable fact, that President Jonathan has done well for Nigeria in such a very short time, and I think he is the answer to the prayer of many Nigerians

Ribadu


Gbawe and his band of APC e-warriors, why are you blind to the achievements of Jonathan?

Any ambition driven by grievance, bitterness and vendetta can not be said to possess any element of change

... Ribadu


Gbawe and his fellow APC e-warriors why are you people bitter?

Please join me in laughing.



You must like this post oh!!! By fire, by rain.

Nuhu Ribadu on President Goodluck Jonathan, Gov. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi and APC: " I'm a young man and age is still on my side. I will not allow anyone to trade with me, for the second time. It was wrong for Gov. Kwankwaso to describe my decision to join the PDP as a betrayal, because I consulted widely. The truth is that, the APC does not have what it takes to change Nigeria, and any ambition driven by grievance, bitterness and vendetta can not be said to possess any element of change''. ''And it is only a matter of time and Nigerians will know who truly loves them. I think the APC would have done well without the aggrieved PDP governors. With due respect to governor Amaechi, he is simply hungry for power and do not know how to go about it, except with money''. '' I may not know how to become the President of Nigeria, but I know it's never for the highest bidder and it's never up for sale. It's an undeniable fact, that President Jonathan has done well for Nigeria in such a very short time, and I think he is the answer to the prayer of many Nigerians. I must not be President, but I have vowed to support anyone who shares the same vision I have for Nigeria. And take it from me, President Jonathan has surpassed my vision for Nigeria"-

"Abia state belongs to the PDP and I hope abia south presents a credible candidate at least to help fix even if its only Aba"

Correct, Aba needs serious fixing and I have a hunch only an Ngwa man will fix it better. And if Igbo in Abia reject zoning, then the larger Igbo society should not complain when the presidency is not zoned to them. Charity begins at home. BTW, I am non Ngwa.

MaziOmenuko: No Ngwa man can match the pedigree of contestants coming out now: Rtd. Gen Azubuike Ihejirika, Mr Otti, Mr Uche Ogar. We will soon write Madam Okonjo-iweala to join the race!

No time for mediocres again! Once bitten, forever shy!

How about Reagan Ufomba, though of APGA?

Yoruba, of course. Yoruba monarchs washing their dirty linen in public since 1470 AD.

Ziluxga: Which one is he going to shake, Nigeria or Yorubaland?

aresa: Using hand sanitizer is good hygiene practice, but hand sanitizer have zero effect on Ebola.

Hand sanitizer kills bacteria, it doesn't kill virus. sanitizer kills 99.9 % bacteria and not virus, bacteria is different from virus.

These ignorant leaders need to quit the stupidity and stop sending the wrong message.

Dude, it depends on the active ingredient in the specific hand sanitizer. There are all-purpose surface cleansers for all microbes including viruses.

Aigbofa: Most likely there are no facilities to monitor/ treat her in Enugu.
I wonder if other cities in Nigeria are prepared.

There also was no facility in Lagos until Ebola came.

Aigbofa: Why was she brought back to Lagos? Aren't there any facilities in the east to quarantine her? Will the people she had contacts with also shipped be to Lagos?
Na wah o.

Because she was infected in Lagos.

RareDiamond: I HOPE YOU HAVE A NICE TIME FROM THE INSULTS ON OJUKWU BY THIS YOUR UNNECESSARY AND PROVOCATIVE THREAD. ON WHAT BASIS SHOULD THE GREAT OJUKWU BE COMPARED WITH A BIGOT, THIEVE, CORRUPT, SELFISH AND VISION LESS POLITICIAN LIKE TINUBU ? YOU CAN KNOW SEE WHY ALOT OF PEOPLE QUESTION YOUR IGBO ORIGIN. ONLY A BAS.TARD POINTS TO HIS FATHERS HOUSE WITH A LEFT HAND. ABAGWORO YOU ARE M0RON !!! YOU HAVE MADE A FOOL OF YOURSELF AND NOT THE GREAT OJUKWU

Abagworo has always been an igbo iiddiot

Obiagelli: igbos were at par with every tribe nigeria in the 60s, in fact igbos dominated the civil service and the army.

Btw i am not yoruba.

Exactly the point Achebe was making. Before 1900, there was really no documented history of Igbos, unlike the Yoruba and Hausa-Fulani. Then they came seemingly from nowhere and equalized everything

Ebola was unknown in West Africa (WA) until early this year.
It has been in Central and East Africa (Congo and parts of Uganda mainly) for several decades. In these places it burns out quickly because it occurs in isolation from the big cities.

Unlike these places of its origin, when Ebola occurred in WA, it became more widespread and pervasive because of the way of life of WAcans: WAcans are unreasonably stubborn. When you ask them to sit they stand, when you say walk they run.

For example, some infected persons in Sierra Leone were reported to have escaped from their confinement back to their villages, apparently taking the virus with them and spreading it. Some of these Ebola escapees were ''recaptured'' back in Freetown, the capital of that country. In Liberia, despite warnings to keep away from bush meat, people still consuming primates.

In Nigeria, many of the people who flew in same plane with the dead American (of Liberian origin) who died of Ebola in Lagos are refusing to report for check.

Even if Ebola occurs in the US or Europe, it will burn out sooner than later because those guys know what they are doing. They will contain it easily.

Indeed, as we speak, the US government is already starting to provide funding for the potential new drug, ZMAPP, that appears to have worked for the two infected American health workers. The company in SD, LA is now starting to mass-produce the drug. The stocks of this company has surged at the New York Stock Exchange since the drug was used on these patients. Another set of millionaires are about being created. That is the spirit of America.

This Ebola case in West Africa (the most important region of Sub Sahara Africa) has indirectly exposed the underbelly of Africa. It has shown that Africans are incapable of any scientific achievement that can solve a practical problem. Can anyone show me one thing that an African (scientist, professor, engineer etc) resident in Africa has discovered, designed or manufactured that is of continental, let alone global importance?

As previously mentioned, Ebola has been in Africa for ages, yet Africans lack the will, ability or even interest in researching the disease and finding potential cure. There has been survivors of this disease in the different countries it has occurred. Why have African governments not deemed it fit all this while to fund research on the possibility of using these survivors to produce antibodies that can then be tested on model organism? Or, why have we not infected model animals with the virus, isolate the antibodies elicited by the virus and work on it further for possible use as drugs?

Why do we wait for the white man to do everything for us? Why are we unable to help ourselves? Shame on Africa. You are indeed a dark continent.

If you, a bunch of 54 or so African countries, fail to take these measures and more now on your own terms, you might only have to depend on brutal alternative terms set by natural, and indirectly, by man-made upheavals to help you resolve the problem of your ballooning population yet low productivity. God forbid it, but such brutal alternatives could include the population being drastically cut down by events of war, terrorism acts, or other significant natural factors such as terrible communicable diseases of epidemiological proportions. The choice of the term is yours.

Sounds a little bit alarmist but true. Nigeria's population is being decimated by Boko Haram, and now we have Ebola looming.

naijaking1: Tell us whenever you reclaim your own Illorin from the Fulanis, you hear!

Add Kogi to the list

Neyoor: And Omisore has been distributing kerosine for electorates, incase you don't know.

My point is that they are both guilty and it shows the stomach infrastructure development in Osun as it did in Ekiti. Yaribas are really poor and cheap.

ISpiksDaTroof: Thats how u campaign in civilized countries, not handing out expired rice and money so that gullible people can sell their destiny.

But Aregbesola has been handing rice and cassava meal to people in place of their votes. Did you not see those?

agbameta: Only sheeps .

You are truly incorrigible. I leave you to your empty headedness. I am not your Ajegunle University teacher

Yorubest: If his performance is overhyped, how come it is the number one investment destination in Nigeria?

How come, despite being the most populous, the state is about the most peaceful?

If with N20bn, Lagos still manages to get by and provide infrastructure for about 20millon people, please tell me what the FG is doing with over N160bn monthly for over 160million Nigerians

Most peaceful ke?

You dey dream?

agbameta: Only sheeps and mumu people accepts claims and unsubstantiated figures without credible and official facts regardless who the purveyor is. Reading the insane you people post gets too painful sometimes..

Babapupa aka Eko Ile aka Agbameta

Joe Igbokwe is a knowledgeable person, that is why FASOLE APPOINTED HIM. He knows what he is talking about, hence Fasola has not even refuted him.

BTW, it is sheep and not sheeps. Yoruba illiterate.

kayci_d77: This is the reason you r opening your dirty mouth, this was made possible because the chairman of Amuwo Odofin LGA is an IGBO man.

I knew something was wrong. Yoruba could not have done that for him. Thanks for exposing Azuh Amatus (Orikinla's) efulefuness
