Any government can implement and form agencies more than this, but what if when the intension of this is to create avenue for looting?
we were not kids when theses looting was midwifed, and we have not forgotten.

Let's see. Do we still have the following today?

National Directorate of Employment (NDE).
Federal Environment Protection Agency (FEPA).
Lagos Third Mainland Bridge.
National Population Commission (NPC)
Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC)
National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS)
NNPC Escravos- Lagos Gas Pipeline at Egbin,
National Electoral Commission (NEC).
Elesa Eleme Refinery in River State.
Children Trust Fund
National Agricultural Land Development Authority (NALDA)
National Orientation Agency (NOA)
Nigerian Communication Commission (NCC)
The creation of Akwa Ibom, Katsina, Abia, Anambra, Delta, Jigawa, Kebbi, Kogi, Osun, Yobe and Taraba States and over 136 new Local Government Areas with take off grants.
SSS, DMI and NIA
National defense college
Aso villa
National assembly complex.
Option A4
And the list goes on. . .

My guess is that they are ALL THERE today.

If that is how to loot, I welcome that!
What we have today is looting with NOTHING to show for it.

In any case, any military take-over in Nigeria means the end of Nigeria - you would like that won't you? Say the truth and scare the devil already - your real aim is the dismemberment of this nation.

And you think that stealing elections cannot lead to the end of Nigeria? But it happened under Obasanjo, brazenly, yet nothing happened. What makes you think stealing of elections or a coup will disintegrate Nigeria?

The only things that can lead to that is marginalization of Ndigbo. You can take that to the bank.

You are so fond of saying JUMP, but what are you going to JUMP INTO. OVERTHROWN BY ANGEL or GOD HIMSELF or by the even more CORRUPT GUN-TOTTING FOOLS WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR WHERE WE ARE TODAY.

We stay on this journey come rain or shine - we will soon realize how much power is really available to us to do and undo a government after a couple of cycles, but not if we keep jumping into the arms of the MILITARY.

In any case, any military take-over in Nigeria means the end of Nigeria - you would like that won't you? Say the truth and scare the devil already - your real aim is the dismemberment of this nation.

Are you even following Dede1's point at all? He says that if GEJ rigs the polls (as he may be planning), he loses legitimacy which makes coup against his government a fair game. That is what I understand by his statements.

I wonder which is worse anyway: a stolen mandate or a coup. I think both are the same thing.

Of course, IBB is intelligent, so is SATAN.

Of course, IBB is charismatic. How else did he know exactly where to put the raw meat hungry dogs to latch on to his lie?

If you are looking for SATAN, don't look past Otta.

But courage, I beg go sitdown somewhere - he certainly did not show it between 1985 & 1993. Courage is not when you have all the powers of state at your command and use it to mow down whoever raises their voice to oppose you. Courage of a leader is shown at the decisive moment of a nation - that moment came for IBB in June 1993, and HE RAN WITH HIS TAILS BETWEEN HIS LEGS rather than do right by Nigerians. After his mismanagement of almost all he touched between those years, he delivered Nigerians into another 6 years of utter darkness. He is a shortsighted, selfish human, who would promise heaven and hell just to fulfill his selfish desires.

Did it ever occur to you and your group that maybe IBB actually loved Nigeria and saw Nigeria as greater than himself, unlike your brother "O"? Does it ever occur to you that if IBB was 10% as evil as your brother the O, he would have killed all in his way to power and nothing would have happened? He was a military leader. He could have done anything with your people and all their noise and nothing would have happened.
The man simply loves Nigeria and wants Nigeria to remain one. Thats all. But then, folks like you can never see that!

koruji:
You are on your own from hear on!

I could pray for IBB to win so that you will finally taste his level of wickedness, but won't for the sake of millions of Nigerian born and unborn. Just in case IBB wins - please come back and gloat in my face when he starts to magically transform Nigeria - I will be happy to accept such gloating. Meanwhile, I will not be holding my breadth.

Go into the wildnerness on your - we 'll see what you emerge with from this political wildnerness between here and May 2011.

Calm down pal, I believe that the worst person has already ruled Nigeria. His name begins with the letter "O".

IBB is coming to operate in a better environment -democracy, where he would have real technocrats to work with to bring about the Nigeria that we will all be proud of.

He is the only one in this race courageous enough,intelligent and charismatic enough to bring about such transformation.

To refresh your memory, IBB achieved the following in office:

The establishment of new Universities and Polytechnics.
The movement of Federal Capital from Lagos to Abuja.
The reorganization of the Nigeria Police into seven Zonal Operation Areas.
The unemployment grant to States for agricultural programmes and vocational skills.
Establishment of Mass Mobilization for Self-Reliance Social Justice and Economic Recovery (MAMSER).

The creation of Akwa Ibom, Katsina, Abia, Anambra, Delta, Jigawa, Kebbi, Kogi, Osun, Yobe and Taraba States and over 136 new Local Government Areas with take off grants.

Yes I said let his records speak for him. IBB did a lot of things. He didn't do only Abiola for 8 years.
If you read previous pages, you will see the list of his achievements. To summarize all his years in office to one incident is most disingenuous.

koruji:
@Onlytruth
I know your antecedents on NL. Let me implore you to be honorable with your words for once. Stick to the one reason I know you have for supporting IBB, which is to spite the Yorubas - like it matters anyway.

When you actually start saying things like below, suggesting you really believe IBB's words, it is either don't know who/what you are talking about when it comes to IBB or you are simply GULLIBLE.

[size=14pt]IBB IS ALREADY SO ADEPT AT TELLING LIES HE DOESN'T BELIEVE HIMSELF ANYMORE[/size]

So which of the quote is a lie?

Is it a lie that IBB wants to finally end the civil war? Or that if Nigeria integrates Ndigbo, we can actually start to build a nation from scratch? The man mentioned things he would do. I have no reason to doubt him because his record in office speaks for him. I cannot ditch him because of Abiola. Period.

Dede1:
GEJ is a very bad example for every Nigerian. He has been deputy governor, governor of a state, vice president and presently president of Nigeria. According to the precedent set by nairaland pundits, these positions qualified him as a thief. If all the former state governors and heads of state have adjudged as thief by supporters of GEJ, I conclude that GEJ is equally a thief and has no regard for rules and regulations.

Having flouted the section 7-2 C of PDP’s constitution by allegedly declaring his intention to contest for 2011 Nigerian presidential election, he has lost the pedigree to lecture civil obedience to pupils in kindergarten.

If he rigs himself into power, I suggest he should be overthrown. Any soldier or group soldiers who participated in kicking him out of the office should not be held responsible for breaking any statutory code.

My brother Dede takes no prisoners.

Abagworo:
We need to update ourselves about the true history of our communities.nnewi for example is not a subgroup like ngwa or ezaa but someone had come up earlier to compare nnewi with ngwa.nnewi is like aba.the only difference being that aba is entirely ngwa subgroup while[b] nnewi is partly orsu and isuama subgroups[/b].orlu is exactly same as nnewi.awka is a town as well as subgroup just like nri.there is nothing like owerri subgroup.what we erroneously call owerri is uratta subgroup.Some very small subgroups however exist as both town and subgroup like Igbere,abiriba,arochukwu and alayi.we can make a list of all the real  subgroups and dialects.

You are wrong Abagworo!

There is nothing like Isuama in Nnewi proper (Nnewi north). Nnewi proper has a subgroup (if you are really interested in knowing ) called Anaedo made up of Nnewi, Ichi, Oraifite and parts of Ozubulu. They are together called Anaedo.

They were balkanized between Nnewi North and Ekwusigo L.G.A.s If you do things properly, they would form one Anaedo subgroup.

Nnewi south local government area has some Orsu like Osumenyi, Ukpor, Utuh, and Akwaihedi. The Nnewi south local government area also has Isuama like Amichi. Nnewi town is made up of Nnewi only (like Awka).

So, if you do it by subgroup, you will get Anaedo.
If you do it by broad group (including those who identify themselves as Nnewi eg those in Nnewi south LGA) you will get a bigger Nnewi group. You can't tell a person how to identify himself (per those in Nnewi south LGA).

Get your facts straight.

@ Frank-C

We are making him popular indeed but for all d wrongest reasons in this world. How do u define popularity?

Is it the one that make all the Governor stay away from your formal presidential declaration?

Or is it the one that make any1 that identify with u be tagged a persona non grata by his people?

Or is it the kind that will not allow u to campaign freely in some places because of your evil past?

Guy we shall continue making IBB popular painting him in his favorite colours "black red black" representing darkness, blood, sorrow, and doom.

Have you ever heard of the term "saving your @$$" before? The governors are after their own interests. Nobody knows who they will vote for until the day of the primaries.

If I even guess, they may be planning something sinister because they insisted on gubernatorial primaries coming before the presidential primaries. I wouldn't sleep if I were you.

What was the point of this article?

The point is that Nigerians can easily identify a problem but fail woefully when it comes to identifying solutions to the problem. The national assembly just concluded a constitutional amendment. And Jonathan couldn't even mention resource control. He has not done anything in that direction even by simply lobbying PDP members to move it forward. It never even showed up on his agenda of government. He is more concerned about staying in office.

I need a courageous president of Nigeria.

^^
So, who will deliver resource control? I know it is not Jonathan. Nor any other contestants so far.

[size=16pt]S-South monarchs demand resource control[/size]

By Tony Nyong
Uyo—Monarchs in the South South region ended their two days retreat in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, stressing the need for the issues of fiscal federalism and resource control to be resolved as recommended by the Technical Committee on the Niger Delta.

The royal fathers according to a communique, read by the chairman of the South-South Monarchs’ Forum, HRM King Edmund Dr. M. Daukoru, Mingi XII , observed that the nmnesty initiative of the Federal Government was a welcome development that had helped to restore peace to the Niger Delta.

“Beyond the amnesty, the fundamental issues of fiscal federalism/resource control should be resolved through the upward review of the derivation principle as recommended by the Technical Committee on the Niger Delta.”

They further observed that the Goodluck Jonathan and Mohammed Sambo presidency was acceptable, as they are capable of steering the ship of the nation to change the plight of the citizenry and that they should freely exercise their fundamental rights to contest in the next election to sustain and consolidate the progress made so far in their service to the fatherland.

They noted that for there to be a free and fair elections, the election should be based on the principle of one man one vote, free of violence, intimidation or rigging.

Other points of the communiqué were as follows: that traditional rulers should, without being partisan, sensitize their subjects about the forthcoming registration exercise and the elections. That traditional rulers should be empowered through the constitutionalisation of their specific roles; and that in order to achieve their aspiration for constitutional empowerment, the South-south Monarchs’ Forum should network with the organizations of monarchs of the other geo=political zones in the country.

The theme of the retreat was “Strengthening Security & Co-operation for peace and Development in the Niger Delta Region.” There were four sub-themes with the discussion sessions being chaired differently by HRM Emmanuel Sideso, Abe I- Ovie of Uwie, HRM King Prof. T. J. T Princewill Amachree XI – Amanyanabo of Kalabari, His Eminence Edidem Ekpo Okon Abasi Otu V- Obong of Calabar and HRE King Alfred Diete Spiff-Seriyali II- Amanyanabo of Twon Brass.

hahahhaha, you are now peddling your poo to Igbo's. IBB couldnt trust Igbo's then, so why trust them now? Northerner's were never interested in the civil war or cared. Remember Yoruba's helped to end the war. Northerner's were ready to ethnically cleanse the Igbo's. And all of a sudden they care about civil war? You are a big disgrace to your tribe. You will lick the ground for a few handouts and sellout your people. What a big shame.

hahahahha. coming from the infant himself. That is right, no matter whose ox is gored. IBB spited Yoruba's with OBJ, MKO and so many other things. He thinks he can runaway like that. He set the stage for his return. But we dont want. And above all he is genuinely the wrong person for Nigeria. His idea's are outdated, and he is neither mentally nor physically fit to rule Nigeria. Tell your Grandpa to take a rest. I know he is running out of money as he can hardly fund his campaign. If you think you will campaign for IBB to death to spite Yoruba's you are wasting your time, cause it will surely kill you when he loses. . This is not about ethnicity but an evil person.

I keep telling you that you are a kid. 1990s is not today. If you are intelligent enough, you would notice that IBB's top priority is to finally heal the civil war wounds. I know that in your extremely selfish world, you can't see that. Not to worry, the rest of us see.
The only reason IBB would have wanted to assuage the Yoruba in 1990s was because Ndigbo could not be counted to stand with the North in case of trouble.

If IBB finally heals that wound and integrate Ndigbo into Nigerian mainstream (which will happen irrespective of what your people do), then, I can assure you that you cannot threaten Nigeria in any way.  

This is the point I want Igbo readers to understand too.

IBB wants to build a nation out of Nigeria.

TewMuch:
. The ogogoro wey dem give you drink is messing with your mind. Besides w[b]ho is that behind IBB wearing a badly sown Yoruba hat.[/b] Ahhh IBB, too desperate, and a big stager. No wonder the Agbero's were fighting at eagle's square. . Hope he feeds you at least, cause this your lies can cause mental problems for you.

The man enjoys more support from YOUR corner of Nigeria, so what are you talking about?
The "agberos" are actually Nigerians.

TewMuch:
IBB obviously knows something you dont. You are a retard once again. Yoruba's fight for what is right regardless of whose ox is gored, not suck the backside of anyone that will give them a handout. OBJ was imposed by IBB and IBB got his reward from OBJ. There can never be 2 masters in one house. Which failures are in the west? The west is better off than any other part of Nigeria, except ABJ. So wtf are you on about OnlyLies? So you have decided to go the way of Chyz in your desperation. When a bush rat is caught, he does all he can to runaway.

My friend, the more you talk the more you expose your stupidity and infancy. You think your people can threaten Nigeria? In fact I would now work harder to help elect IBB.

Meanwhile enjoy the declaration pictures of your next president.

TewMuch:
Who chose him to be Nigeria's leader? IBB. Shows IBB's ability to make the right choices. Besides i dont do my brother, my brother nonsense like you. If OBJ did bad, then he did. The proof is there, so that is not the argument. When you are caught lying you try to derail.

So now Obasanjo is not a man of his own? He is a kite tied to IBB?

Why can't you people focus on the failures of your own people than trying to lynch a man who actually empowered you in Nigeria. If IBB did not support power shift to the west, do you think it would have happened?

Why do you enjoy stabbing people in the back? Na wa!

Answer: Your brother Olusegun Obasanjo.

By the way who killed Bola Ige?

TewMuch:
You are a fool OnlyLies. IBB was pressured; Nigerian's were demanding a democratic government enmasse. You must be the child because you rant and rave stupidly, spewing lies. IBB gave them what they wanted for peace sake, he later realised that MKO may not play ball and help him loot. Kind of like his intention's with OBJ (which backfired as well). That is why he killed MKO and his WIFE. Including a lot of notable Nigerians that could come against him, from all parts of the country. He now put shonekan there, and then maradona us again with Abacha which was his plan all along. You are the child as you have no account of the events. Stop your stoopid lied OnlyLies.

Did you say IBB killed Abiola and his wife??

Chei!

My friend go and write your WAEC exams.
