Why is Gej going outside 2 look 4 arms instead of going 2 main market onitsha or empowering my igbo bros to help him out.

and your point is that?

Progress in the face of hostile oppositions

egift:
1. The flight used was not properly cleared in Nigeria before leaving for South Africa as required by law.
2. The means and channel used in transferring the money was illegal (Nigeria has a cashless policy in place aimed to discourage actions like that).
3. Considering the volume of cash and the amount of weapon it can buy, South Africa have the authority to be dully notified. But were not.
4. How do you explain an official transaction that did not include any official aboard the flight.
5. Only a rogue nation uses a plane registered for Gospel and Missionary work to smuggle money meant for illegal arms deal.
6. The money being moved in that manner can be used for anything and diverted at any point with a trace. We only know because the got caught. Thanks to Sahara Reporters.
7. As usual, the first response were denials. The SA did not hold it and released more information, Nigerians would not have gotten a confession and acceptance.
8. The lies told, deception promulgated and shielding of the smugglers show their is more than meet the eyes.

So how can in the mist of these deception, will you not even accept that the FG made mistakes (did wrong) and even now promote it is the fault of APC? Is the money, the jet, the pilot, the passengers and the officials conducting these shady business members of APC? Or you are just angry that the thief got caught and this is a "One Day For The Owner (Nigerians)"?

i look at your reasons and i laugh at your ignorance, nigerian domestic cashless policy should now be applied on matters of military procurements, and who told you the Cape authorities where not dully informed, are you going to back that with existing evidence, do you hold it on solid fact and authority that the SA authorities where unware of any such transaction before it commenced?
Do you think the south Africans are not trying to undermine nigerian interest and are doing the right thing in ignoring diplomatic channels and going all out to broadcast the details of an official confidential Arms deal ( if with the available evidence you still don't think so then there is a problem)

banki:
yeah right, so his polices include not punishing people who brazenly stole Nigerias money in the name of subsidy......aas long as they are in his political party....
or promote police officers who are corrupt and controversial....
or turn a blind eye towards people who defraud Nigerian youth in the name of giving us jobs and kill many of us in the process....

well done

how dare you blame the nigerian president for the failures of an already failed system that you and i know it would take years and years of uninterrupted good governance to reconstruct.

egift:
1. As a Christian: Am very offended that the PDP is using Christainity and the Gospel of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ as a cover for their evil of money laundery and illegal arm smuggling. Perpetrating acts that leads to the deaths of human souls.

2. As a Nigerian: I am very heart-broken that our Government is looting us in every single turn imaginable. Under developing this country. Mortgaging the future of Nigeria. Sabotaging he "Labours Of Our Heroes Past". Amassing our collective fortunes as if they own it. Drowning us in loans that they have no ideas on how to repay.

3. As a Literate: I hate the insult to our sensibilities as people. Taking us for granted. Giving us lame excuses for their deliberate misrule. Installing the most incompetent folks in position of power.

Finally, I find it very unforgivable for citizens like to poster to come here and hold brief for an evil deed that is bright as day. I have no problem with people having a totally different opinion - But even the truth should be seen once in a while.

No matter how you spine this, the Federal Government were wrong on the way and manner they conducted their South African Business.

can you please explain to us how and why you think the nigerian government was wrong in the way and manner in which it made that transaction, and why do you think this is not a direct plot by the south African government to undermine the nigerian integrity and stance in Africa, you people have sworn that the nigerian state cannot be lead as long as you are not the ones leading, it cannot record successes as long as you are not the one making the decisions.

SLIDEwaxie:
dude, get this right! I dnt vote for party, I vote for individual. But GEJ is a dumfuck and nothing else. If for anything why I hated him, it's his hobnob with corruption and the corrupted!

Jonathans administration is fraught with successes and failures and this is not alien to governments anywhere in the world. If you ask Mr Asiwaju the question " what is the nigerian national interest" i am very sure he will say a lot of bull cap without hitting the point, the same goes for him and all the member of his party.

Gbawe2:
Thank you. The GEJ Presidency has done a lot to show me that Nigeria is indeed full of many demented elements ready to support what is outrightly evil and condemnable.

This dumb thread is akin to blaming and attacking a 2 year old toddler sexaully assaulted by a 50 year old pervert only to turn around and absolve the paedophile of blame when he deserves the most painful castration possible and lenghty incarceration afterward. With the likes of OP parading themselves as Nigerians it is clear we do not even need external enemies.

can you please explain to us how and why you think the nigerian government was wrong in the way and manner in which it made that transaction, and why do you think this is not a direct plot by the south African government to undermine the nigerian integrity and stance in Africa, you people have sworn that the nigerian state cannot be lead as long as you are not the ones leading, it cannot record successes as long as you are not the one making the decisions.

SLIDEwaxie:
Why don't you shut and own up, ehn?
Of what good is this PDP since 1999?

Is it not this APC that started giving some of their elects the run for their money?

Most of them started performing just few years back from the fear of ACN, now APC taking over their state!

But at the federal level, what was the achievement?

Ever rising debt profile?
Incessant corruption?
Hobnob with the corrupt politicians?
Decaying educational system?
Affordable Federal health system in each state?
Good federal roads in most states?
Stupid revenue allocation policy?
Inflation reduction?
Good railway lines?
Nice locomotive railways carriage?
Of what good has this administration actually been since 1999? Or maybe is hould say: since 2011 because Yar dua really was on the way to building on OBJ's policy. He has already reduced the running cost of governance and almost solved the insurgent's wahala both boko haram and the militants..

Instead, we are punushed by the bower-hat wearing dumbfuck!!!

but you know that this bower wearing dumb Bleep is already attempting at rebuilding through his many policy but they wont see any light if we keep on with this our hostility towards the government and its policy

The nigerian opposition party have shown a radiant level of irresponsibility and hostility toward the nigerian polity and why is this? Is it that the opposition think they can do it better? Well if they think so then let them wait cus 2015 is just around the corner, why are they trying by every means necessary to destroy the polity just to gain cheap political points, or do they think they are the only opposition on earth, we have opposition all over but the opposition here have shown a very high level of " irresponsible and unpatriotic display of hostility towards the government of the country, they ve made statements that encourage disunity and anarchy, ve tried severally to undermine the faith of the nigerian people on their government.
It is no news that the nigerian people and their government are at war against the forces of extremism( it should be noted that it is generally believed by nigerians that the opposition are complicit in this crime against the people they seek to lead) and this war is a war that has to be fought with weapons several attempts by the nigerian government to acquire the needed weapons to be used in prosecuting the war against terror have being foiled by the " enemies of the nigerian state" one would expect a patriotic and responsible opposition to rally round the government in support but the statements being made by the opposition only goes to say that they are supporters of our enemies, proponents of our failures and advocates of a weak and failed nigerian state,
they have clearly shown to us that as long as Jonathan remains the president of Nigeria they (APC) WILL NEVER HAVE A NIGERIAN INTEREST AT HEART, this is what we ve seen noticed and watched helplessly as they battle shamefully to win a noble position that we all know they are unfit for

unuane1:
Our attention has been drawn to a
statement by the APC wherein it again
embarrassed itself on issues regarding
the genuine efforts by the Federal
Government to tackle the security
challenges facing our nation.
Our response to the APC is that we are
solidly behind President Goodluck
Jonathan in the steps he is taking to
ensure the safety of Nigerians and
defend our sovereignty as a nation,
especially in the light of their
connivance with foreign interests to
embarrass the government and people
of Nigeria.
We state categorically that the actions
preferred by some foreign nations
against our dear country as we seek
solution to our security challenges are
unacceptable and totally uncalled for,
especially given our cordial relationship
with them and the roles Nigeria and
Nigerians citizens played in assisting
them in their internal struggles.
Given the rush with which the APC
attacked the presidency, it is clear that
they are working hand in glove with
foreign interests in a concerted effort to
tarnish the image of our dear nation,
ridicule our government and frustrate
genuine efforts towards ending the
insecurity challenges we face as a
nation.
Any responsible opposition which has
the interest and welfare of the people at
heart as the APC claims would
concentrate on proffering solution to the
problems of the nation instead of
seeking political capital at all times.
Instead, we have an opposition that has
been conniving with foreign interests to
destroy the image and unity of their
own country as a means to achieve
political control.
The APC is aptly likened to a
quarrelsome wife, who daily goes to the
market place to discuss her marital
problems. We ask, does such a woman
seek the unity or disintegration of her
home? In the same vein Nigerians
wonder if the APC is really interested in
the unity and corporate existence of our
nation. Are they trying to destroy our
country as a means to achieve political
control through the back door?
The APC must come to terms with the
fact that Nigeria as a indivisible nation
has come to stay. They must know that
Nigerians are resolute in their
determination to live together as one
people.
Our final response is that the PDP and
indeed Nigerians of good faith are
solidly behind President Jonathan and
no amount of blackmail or connivance
with foreign interests will deter or
detract the PDP-led administration from
the resolve to find a permanent solution
to the security challenges in our
country.

love this, the APC people have shown no responsibility in their attack against the government in his various attempts to solve our national issues, and why is this? Is it that the APC peeps think they can do it better? Well if they think so then let them wait cus 2015 is just around the corner, why are they trying to destroy the polity just to gain cheap political points, or do they think they are the only opposition on earth, we have opposition all over but the APC peeps have shown a very high level of " irresponsibility, unpatriotic display of hostility towards the government of the country, made statements that encourage disunity and anarchy, ve tried severally to undermine the faith of the people on their government,

PhockPhockMan:
With the ravaging nature of Ebola Virus, and it's surprise onward flights to Europe and United States of America, it has become clear that the whole world is at a great health risk more than ever before. Unfortunately , the two countries (Liberia and Sierera Leone ) the virus is worst hit are people who paid back Nigeria's sacrifice of human and material in the days of their need with INGRATITUDE.
Whether it's reason Nigeria is not willing to help them again, time shall tell.
Today,(SOUTH AFRICA ) another African country Nigeria did everything humanly possible to liberate from deadly grasp of apartheid regime, is now paying us back in their own way, which includes the embarrassment they Meted to our president during Mandela burial.
No doubt, Nigeria has created a high standard in the fight against the virus.
The question now is, in the event of South Africa catching the Ebola bug, WILL YOU ADVISE NIGERIA GOVERNMENT TO HELP THEM?

Aktor365:
Following the failed attempts to wipe out the dreaded ISIS through air strikes, Turkish families who have been trapped in Kobani,Syria ,are taking up arms to defend themselves ,as ISIS comes close to taking over their town.

Even though the Prime Minister warned thousands of its citizens to flee as they could no more be protected, those who couldn't run including kids, old women, girls were seen taken up arms in a desperate last attempt to defend the city.

Report reveals that, more than 2500 Kurdish girls,and women have been captured and sold as slaves by ISIS while the men are executed.

SantaMafia:
Look at these MUMUs getting excited over nothing! First, I doubt the Ghana central bank governor said what he was quote as saying. secondly. how much volume of gas does nigeria supply to Ghana? a maximum of 120 million standard cubic feet of gas, which can generate between 450 to 500 MW of electricity. What is Ghana's installed generating capacity? 2,800MW. so how can the absence of 500MW, which the lack of gas supply implies for Ghana result in a total lack of power in Ghana? does it make sense?

hahahahaha and for those dumb MUMUs, I guess they are not aware that Ghana will soon finish its own gas treatment plant which will process 150 million scf of gas at Atuabo. the americans have already stopped buying you apes oil, soon they will stop buying your gas. That is when you would have wished Ghana and other would have bought your gas so backward. there are no words

i guess u didn't read the post or u were too dumb to understand it, installed capacity my foot, who re u kidding?

jteku:
Angola is at its peak, their is money to spend unnecessarilly on what they don't need.

Obama think say na everybody get time for amebo mission. Make im nor mind im own business very soon Nigeria go soon send 500 health professionals to help them cure ebola for America

Can i view it with my biro casing telescope?

Sincere9gerian:
A balanced and well written article just that I disagree with the author on his using road construction as a guage for competence and intelligence. I mean all it takes to build a solid road or bridge is to assemble the right engineers and award the contract to a capable firm, provided the funds are avialable. That is not rocket science. It is one of the easiest task any leader could undertake.

However, Kwankwaso can demonstrate his intelligence or competence in the number of industries and businesses his regime resurrected and the new ones he attracted to Kano. That is where the hardwork and brain work is.

But I agree that Kwankwaso is a strong personality.

coming from even you

Really don't now what to say, i am hardly done investigating the 9.3m deal and now this one.

cocoduck:
why are you sad about it when back in 1970 after the civil war Gowon and co exiled and killed the biafran war scientists.

it smirks off ignorance on the side of anybody that said military procurements should be done according to the trends of time, no you don't buy choppers because they are new and are the one reigning, " the AH cobra saw success in the Vietnamese war" and the terrain there is similar to that of sambisa so thats why we need them, inorder of us to replicate the Vietnam war success story here in Nigeria. You dont say because American soldiers wear gas mask to fight lets buy gas mask for our soldiers no, you only but what you need, either old or new.

ayindejimmy:
Meanwhile, it was gathered that the Nigerian military has already given an order to AH-1 Cobra helicopters for attacks on Boko Haram enclaves in Sambisa Forest and the hilly terrains of Gwoza and Madagali in Borno and Adamawa states.
According to another source within the DHQ, the AH-1 Cobra helicopters are good for the terrain in the North-East, especially as it has also been used by several other countries like the United States, adding that other countries have used gunships in the past.
READ ALSO: Military Tribunal Begins Trial Of Lt Cols, Major, Several Others
“The Cobra helicopters were deployed by the US during the Vietnam War. The situation in Sambisa Forest could be likened to what was then obtainable in Vietnam,”the source said.
The Huey Cobra gave support for ground forces during the Vietnam War. The AH-1, with the company designation: model 209 is a two-blade, single engine attack helicopter produced by Bell Helicopter
http://www.naij.com/300913-army-swore-vengeance-beheaded-pilot-issues-new-order.html

So our military still use a military plane used in a 1950 Vietnam war in this millenium of advance warships?
Are we condemed to buy scraps?
We want to win a 2014 war but we're using 64 years old weapons. May God protect our innocent soldiers.
We certainly dnt av leaders- just looters

mumu, i know that's what you wanted to say, the AH cobra is just the name of a series of chopper that is being operated by the us army, and they have different upgraded versions, take for example Toyota camry has a 2006 version and also a 2015 version, the version used to prosecute the war in Vietnam are not in the production line again. Nobody is buying them anymore.
But sometimes the way you guys analyse things as if there are not competent and trained officials in the defence hq that are overseeing such procurement

The information dept of the defence headquarters is gradually sliding into incompetence, how can so many errors be credited to such a important governmental agency.

Working on a poem to immortalise this brave young man, you all know that my poems are a source of hope and morale for our brave young men putting their life on the line for the safety of home and country.
