The terrorists..... which religion are they practicing ?
Na here una fit make mouth.. when that pilot was burnt alive non of you could comment on fp

The pilot burnt was a Jew or christian right? Some of you are just brainless and stupid in your thinking.

A terrorist is a terrorist. Wasn't Adolf Hitler a Christian? It is ignorance and stupidity to class a religion as promoting this kind of inhuman treatment, which religion will support burning of human beings as any way of taking revenge.

The pilot is a Jordanian not an Israeli or American for the information of brainwashed bigots like you.

can someone see truth and proper information dissemination from the Chadian Military. the Nigerian Military spokesperson Olukolade will even deny its own Men like the case of the AirForce pilot that was killed so as to keep passing on false and misleading information to the citizenry.

The UK and US Army gives number of casualties on the front daily immediately the family of the fallen soldier is informed. No single Nigerian not even journalists know the total number of Nigerian soldiers killed in Battle not even some families know the fate of their sons and brothers up till now.

The media blackout and denial by the DHQ is not helpful and is counter productive.

imoleay0:
It's obvious all you want to see/hear about this government is bad news, that's why you don't search for truth to confirm before you conclude. who are you to talk about sense when you have none?
Give it up, there's nothing you can do to GEJ with that temporary voters card in your hands.

Settle with your life first man.

are you alright?

thanks sanchez01 I was about to post that information you uploaded before I saw you've done same.

jonaTAN and his ministers are fraud. the worst and most surprising of them all is Madam Okonjo Iweala, How will she face her former colleagues in the World Bank and stare them in the face after jonaTAN is booted out in May 29, 2015.

Tot Aondoaaka will be the worst Justice Minister Nigeria would ever had, never knew Bello Adoke will surpass him. Same Adoke was deeply involved in the Malabu Oil corruption deal and now he has the effrontery to try to deny a whole ECA.

Are some Nigerians so brainless to wish that GEJ continue as President, How can any sane human being pray for the continuation of this fraud of a Government.

can the moderators, seun lalasticlala maclatunji do the needful to this important thread so Nigerians can understand the kind of leaders running it affairs

vjsmiles:
will they ever accept?
even if i am given a presidential position in this country in my dreams i will reject it
blood sucking politricks

why the sudden denial of the ECA? they said they were saving some funds from the sales of Crude in the ECA but when the state governors said they want to be privy to how the funds is being managed they are suddenly denying its existence.

It is clear the ECA is being run and operated like the way they operate the NNPC accounts, they have no records of how they expend monies since it is part of their National Cake they cut off chunks from as they pleases.

this is the most shameless government in Human history. Denying an account your Minister of Finance is always talking about and from which she said $1b was withdrawn from in December to pay Oil subsidy bills.

It is clear, the JONATAN administration is a fraud

The Federal Government yesterday told the Supreme Court that there was nothing like Excess Crude Account (ECA) in existence anywhere and challenged the 36 states challenging the legality of the alleged account to prove otherwise.


The case came up on Tuesday after several failed attempts for an out-of-court settlement between the warring parties. In the suit, the states are also challenging the transfer of $1 billion from the account to the Sovereign Wealth Fund (SWF).

The court, presided by the Chief Justice of Nigeria, was forced to adjourn proceedings to March 19, 2015 after the court could not locate some of the processes filed by counsel to the 36 states of the federation, Yusuf Ali.

Although Ali had urged the court for a stand down to enable him trace the process at the registrar, he was overruled by the CJN who said the court had no luxury of time to grant such a request.

Earlier, counsel from the chambers of the Federal Attorney General, Mohammed Bello Adoke (SAN), Ahmed Abdulmalik informed the court that the alleged Excess Crude Account does not exist.

His words: “The plaintiffs are deceiving themselves. They are aware that there is nothing like ECA anywhere. As soon as any money comes from the account, it is channeled into the Federation Account and shared every month among the states.

“The Federal Government is at a loss as to how the states came up with their claim. The Federal Government is interested in proceeding with this case so that the states can tell the court where the ECA is domiciled. My lords, we are ready to tackle the plaintiffs in court.”


The CJN had earlier insisted that the matter should be settled amicably out of court by both parties saying there was nothing difficult to warrant the interpretation by the Supreme Court.

“If counsels are sincere with their clients, it’s a matter that should be resolved without the court’s intervention,” Justice Mohammed stated.

In the suit, the states stated that the conduct of the government of the federation and its officials was a violation of rule of law and a breach of the independence of the judiciary and constitutes a violation of the principles of rule of law handed down by the Supreme Court in the case of Governor of Lagos v Odumegwu Ojukwu (1986) pt 1 NSCC 304 and Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi v INEC (2008) 5 NWLR (pt 1080) 277.

In addition, they described the action of the Federal Government as executive lawlessness and impunity, saying the proposed disbursement of $1 billion by the Federal Government, its Minister of Finance and other officers would create a state of fait accompli and helplessness, if not stopped immediately

I am not interested in Jonathan's story, I need justice. Bring perpetrators to book and prepare your handover note.

GEJ forgives those found wanting in the forensic report, says only God can judge them.

Yeah just like DG of SSS handed over the killers of over 100 policemen and DSS officials by ombatse cult members last year.

Useless government.

How ngwake or whatever his name is became a moderator on this forum belittle commonsense.

I watch the program live and I marvel that some people will fault the town hall meeting. Adminisher I was ready to take the two bigots on but reading your response I realise there is no need anymore.

Buhari is soft spoken, articulate and purpose driven. He knows the problem and to deal with it.

Do you hear his response to the way the refineries were working circa 1976-1980s and how we were even exporting finished products to neighbouring countries.

His analogy of the inadequate preparation before limping from hydro to thermal power generation which have made all the thermal stations built by the PDP government to be down at the moment.

Buhari know what he is saying and I'm sure he will.do.as he says.

Gbawe:
Does this man have no shame? What did he do with the Ribadu petroleum task force report which gave recommendations to "correct all the lapses in the oil sector"? After the King (GEJ) and the queen of corruption (Allison-Madueke) managed to undermine the work and recommendations of the Ribadu petroleum task force, to the disappointment and condemnation of a shocked world, Jonathan still has the nerve to say this? I would not like to call the President of Nigeria names but his brazen lies and deceitful utterances puts even the most hardened criminal to shame!!!

He reacts based on outburst and condemnation. It took soludo's damning swipe for him to remember that there was an audit they spend millions of dollars on.

This report will go the Ribadu way, inside the wastebin of Aso Rock, except they can doctor it to sooth them. What stop them from publishing it instantly but he is giving it to the Auditor General to try and see if there are things they should remove from the report before giving it to the public.

George W. Bush and Barack Hussein Obama must both be crooks and looting the US must be the only thing they know how to do very well, innit





As always when there is need for concrete, long-term action for sustainable growth, development and recovery the naysayers and detractors will also make a lot of useless noise.

They would rather prefer the dash dash economic formula of their egg-headed professors advising the daft & dumb old pensioner to give N5,000 to 25 million unemployed people, which totals N1.5 trillion yearly i.e. 1/3rd of our 2014 budget.

Obviously no thought of focusing on provision of infrastructures, facilities, utilities and the accompanying economic policies to create an enabling environment and encourage private investors to set up farms & factories so our fellow citizens can be EMPLOYED and earn a decent salary so they can live in DIGNITY.

Only people with Cow Cloned Brain Syndrome, CCBS would support such a clueless old soldier with no notion of macroeconomics




Vote wisely!!!

You must be so daft to relate the auto bailout to these stupid donation to discos and gencos.

Did the US sell those assets at ridiculous prices to ford, gm motors and Chrysler in the first place? Where those companies State owned?

The bailout was to save jobs, save the stock market etc. This stabilisation fund is Paddy Paddy arrangee payback.
The discos collects N750 monthly from consumers yet still need donation, the discos are privately owned and not public liability companies like the auto companies you foolishly brought into your analogy.

shikaan:
Noo sir!! Ur LIFE IS IN SHAMBLES!!!!

if only your fada heeded all advise of the village dibia to use you for the Money Making rituals instead of your mother, you wont be here to show the madness and curse inherent in your lineage.

Nigeria is in shambles, the same DISCOs and GENCOs who donated about N5billion to the PDP Presidential campaign now need Intervention fund to do their business.

were we not told they have privatize the Power Sector? Nigerians are paying N750 maintenance fee very month whether power was given or not. Multiply N750 by approximately 100million households in the country.

Power generation have dropped from 4000Megawatts in 2014 to 2500Megawatts as at January 2015, and money is still flying left , right and centre.

Nigeria is indeed a babana republic, can't wait for the CHANGE

The Central Bank of Nige­ria (CBN) has disbursed N18.26 billion to the first batch of ben­eficiaries of the N213 billion Nigeria Electricity Market Sta­bilisation Facility (NEMSF).

This comprises two electric­ity Distribution Companies (DISCOs) and three electricity Generation Companies (GEN­COs).
In his welcome remarks at the ceremony held at the Bank’s head office in Abuja, on Monday, the CBN Governor, Mr. Godwin Emefiele, reiterated that the N 213 billion Nigeria Electricity Market Stabilisa­tion Facility (NEMSF) was a way of kick-starting the elec­tricity market in order to en­sure that the sector delivered tangible improvement in power supply to Nigerians.
He explained that the CBN, in collaboration with the banking sector, offered to provide the facility to address recent short­falls in power sector revenues caused by needed adjustments in the electricity tariff and leg­acy gas debts.

While congratulating the first batch of beneficiaries, which, he said, had met the conditions precedent to dis­bursement, Emefiele urged the beneficiaries to ensure that the funds were repaid as and when due. He stressed the need for them to ensure that all inputs into the generation of power were in a consistent man­ner.

He equally charged them to invest the funds in the neces­sary improvements in gen­eration plant maintenance, transmission upgrades and dis­tribution networks including transformers and better meter­ing for end consumers.
Furthermore, he urged other Distribution and Generation Companies to take a cue from the first batch of beneficiaries so as to receive their respective tranches of the facility as soon as possible.

Prof. Chinedu Nebo com­mended the CBN Governor for the key role he played in ensur­ing the success of the inter-min­isterial/agency collaboration, which involved the Ministry of Petroleum Resources, Ministry of Power, the Nigerian Elec­tricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) and the Bureau of Pub­lic Enterprises (BPE).

Guess some PDP moles in INEC who were commissioned to wipe and ensure crash of DataBase of Voters in Opposition territory did a shoddy job wiping out data of prominent people who made the whole hidden agenda come to fore.

Imagine if the People affected by the so called Data loss where ordinary Nigerians, it would have been swept under the carpet.

The Independent Electoral Commission (INEC) on Monday offered explaination as to why the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Moham­med Sa’ad Abubakar and Lagos State Governor, Mr Babatunde Raji Fashola, (SAN), were not able to collect their permanent voter’s card (PVC).

The explanation was given by the INEC Deputy Director in charge of Voters Education and Publicity, Nick Dazang, at a one-day workshop for newsmen in Kaduna.

Dazang stated that the commis­sion encountered the problem of loss of data which was caused by some INEC staff.
According to him, “the initial lost of data led to loss of finger prints and that was why the Sul­tan of Sokoto, Governor Fashola of Lagos and others could not get their PVCs. Attitude of some INEC staff led to loss of the data”.
He however declared that de­spite the challenges being faced by INEC, the commission has achieved 65 percent distribution of PVC nationwide and expressed optimism that the percentage of PVC distribution would increased substantially before the election.

next is to set up a committee that will not complete its report until May 28 2015.

Don't worry, Nigerians now know the value of their Voters card

President Goodluck Jonathan has assured Nigerians that his government will correct all the lapses in the oil sector after he received the Forensic Audit report on the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) from the international auditing firm, Water House.

He explained that the report would help to address the lapses in the oil industry and help the administration to address the misconceptions in the industry.

“Everybody knows that the sector needs to be reformed and I believe that by the time we go through the petroleum industry bill and make it a law, most of these lapses would be corrected and the misconceptions will be properly addressed by the different administrative structures.

“I thank you for what you have done. It will help us, it will help this country to set things right. We will handle it decisively based on the information that we have.

“Based on the preliminary information, Nigerians need not be so scared about the kind of stories that we hear.”

Jonathan then directed the Auditor-General of the Federation, Samuel Ukura, to look into the report and release major findings to the government within the week.

He also told him to liaise with the firm to clear any grey areas in the report.

President Jonathan thanked the audit firm for turning in the report on time and for clarifying the issues in the petroleum ministry.

He observed that both chambers of the National Assembly had delved into the matter in the past; and that with the report, the issue of leakages in the petroleum industry would be laid to rest.

The president said that the kind of figures mentioned in the newspapers “looked so ridiculous”, noting that they were figures that he could not imagine the country earned.

“I am quite pleased that you have taken a forensic audit. I will give it to the professionals, the auditor-general of the federation, so that within the week we will get the key findings,” the president said.

He described the report as “a precious document” which could be used as future reference material to improve operations in the oil industry and for academic purposes.

berem:
interesting! I wish the best. Rivers State must retain APC

In their own best interest, patience JonaTAN has design already for the treasury of rivers state if wike wins.

The reason why she is doing all she is doing is the reality dawning on her that she and her husband are heading home by May 29th hence she is trying to ensure they have their stooge in both rivers and Bayelsa state government houses as feeding pipe for her expenses.

Reason why she wants seriake Dickson out in Bayelsa too.

berem:
he is going to win then,that is certain. My fear is that he might defect to PDP.

Berem, dakuku will not poo if Amaechi says he shouldn't.

Amaechi groomed and projected him, it's like Tinubu and Fashola.

Does anyone have an idea of any arrest or invitation by the DSS since the outburst of the frustration of ex militants in Bayelsa government house.

berem:
which ethnic group is Dakuku Peterside?

He is ijaw from opobo

orinocopulse:
I can't fault this article. What I still find hard to understand is how the powers that be made WIKE win the governorship primaries over ODEIN AJUMOGOBIA (A perfect gentleman, technocrat and all-round smart, nice guy!) how?

Don't look to far or confused, the calibre of people in PDP can be seen in ayo fayose, nyesom wike, iyiola omisore, musiliu obanikoro, the Uba brothers, those are the celebrated people in the party and they believe in siege mentality and raw show of power to get their way.

No gentle man in the PDP. Na party of monkey dey work, baboon dey chop words of their chairman. .

KwoiZabo:
Haba Reporter? you have concluded already that they are PDP thugs. these things could be staged by APC to discredit the PDP, the way Buhari staged a bomb blast against his own convoy.

Yea at least his convoy was bombed, but today JonaTAN left a venue of his own campaign and bomb went off 3minutes later, who in his right senses won't know there was a signal to the bomb bearer to set off the bomb immediately JonaTAN left to score cheap political goal with innocent peoples lives.

There won't be a shift in the election date no matter the gimmick of the PDP.

dgr8truth:
Of course not everybody and every statement deserve an arrest. The statement is even more truer to me when I remember my arrest on December 24th 2013 for buying cow meat at 7:45pm in jigbale market in udu lga of delta state.

The Nigerian Police Force needs urgent and far reaching reforms else they will continue to phuck the azz of helpless nigerians.

Don't mind the stupid IG, different set of rule for pro PDP and JonaTAN troublemakers with DSS trying its best to put all APC members in jail even based on assumed offence.

Monkey republic

A response from a commentator from the link----


Every Rivers Man , Rivers Resident and Rivers Ally needs to read This. Thank You for your analysis. Additionally, You need to Add that for 16 years Ikwerre Has ruled Rivers State . Now It is the Turn of Riverine People Wike wants to Snatch Power By all means from Riverine People. Wike Selected Militants as House of Assembly Candidates in the Riverine Communities so that he can Intimidate the riverine People . Wike has failed. He cannot see Brick House. Ikweere is only 20% of Rivers State and Wike wants to use his Inordinate ambition to Chage the rulership Progress of Rivers State, one tribe for 16 years. Rivers People and unity is Bigger than Wike. Wike Put Fuel in the Problem Between Amaechi and Mr President / Wife so that he will be seen as the fighter . We Know so Wike cannot deceive Rivers People. Look at the Manifesto of the Gentle, Intelligent, Visionary , Educated , Experienced and Exposed Dr. Dakuku Peterside. You will Know that he Has great Plans for Rivers People. People of Rivers State shine you eye o else Prepare to Pack your load and leave Rivers State if Wike becomes Governor. God forbid. Dakuku Take us to the road map of Prosperity in Rivers State. A Vote for Dakuku is a Vote for Prosperity in Rivers State. It is not Wike that will make Rivers People vote for Goodluck. Goodluck does not need Wike to win Rivers State in Presidential Election. Wike is one of those that caused the biggest problem for Goodluck. Wike the Cameleon

The massive crowd recorded at the campaign rally of the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate, Dakuku Peterside, in Obio-Akpor Rivers State, at the weekend, had proven emphatically that Obio-Akpor is not the exclusive preserve of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate, Nyesom Wike, said Andy Briggs, a media and political strategist
.
Briggs said the rally which held at the College of Arts and Sciences, drew a record-breaking crowd of Obio-Akpor indigenes as well as non-indigenes. Obio-Akpor has the largest non-indigene population in Rivers State.

Speaking at the rally, Chief Willie Ubaka, a non-indigene and well-known Obio-Akpor leader, declared that non-indigenes would deliver hundred per cent of their votes to Dakuku Peterside. He said the non-indigenes fear that a Wike’s administration would be hurtful to their economic activities due to his initiation of all kinds of revenue collecting task forces during his tenure as Obio-Akpor council boss.

According to Ifeanyi Ofor an Ibo businessman, “Wike will, tax even our television set, if he is governor.”

Opinion polls, however, confirmed the assertions as they suggest that Dakuku Peterside is emerging as the favourite to win the governorship election due to his popularity with non-indigenes who make up the largest political bloc in the state.
Other factors for Peterside’s rise in the polls, according to Briggs include his rising popularity in Ikwerre land, the massive Ogoni support heightened by the involvement of Senator Magnus Abe in his campaign, the continuing discomfort of Riverine groups with Wike’s ambition and Rivers people’s more approving perception of Peterside.

According to a survey of opinions from all over the state, Wike’s aggressive image is a turn-off. People especially in the riverine communities feel that he has been quite cunning, exploiting the opportunities presented by the conflict between President Jonathan and Governor Chibuike Amaechi to hijack the Rivers PDP.

“Wike would be a generous governor to his allies and a terror to his foes. He would pack a lot of muscle on the street and he would not, when infuriated, respect the freedom of the press and the rights of those who disagree with him. He would run a tough take-it or leave-it administration and he would expect the legislature to be nothing more than a well rewarded rubber stamp because he is a man who brooks no opposition and is ready to pay for what he wants,” says Obi Iyke, a political analyst.

According to him, “a lot of people feel that Peterside would never be as domineering, as dictatorial and as threatening as Wike. He is more easy going and less temperamental than Wike. He can gloss over an insult when he needs to but Wike will probably lash out at the least provocation.

“The survey shows that people feel more at home with Peterside because they can heckle at him and they can laugh with him. There is nothing forbidden about his person. Investigations show that his gates are open to people all day. He is a bit like the guy next door. Wike, on the other hand is a more formidable proposition; shrewd and war-like as clearly demonstrated by his army-booted take-over of the coveted Adokiye Amiesimaka stadium. People complained that Wike has consistently failed to shake-off that aggressive war-like image and the hint of malevolence; that his image remains a problem and his attitude says, he does not give a hoot and that he will take Rivers in the same way he took Adokiye Amiesimaka whether any one likes it or not,” he added.

He went further to state: “The APC is the ruling party in Rivers State. This means that in every local government area there is a caretaker council chairman to direct and fund the efforts of the 0APC stalwarts in every ward. This is part of the governor’s power of incumbency which has been placed at Dakuku’s disposal. As the Peterside bandwagon sweeps through the local government areass, becoming a huge avalanche of Rivers people intent on a landslide victory, it remains to be seen whether the Wike camp can find an answer.”

The worst thing that can happen to any country is to have Patience JonaTAN as 1st Vice President, Alison Madueke as 2nd Vice President, Ngozi Okonjo Iweala as 3rd Vice President and former Minister Stella Oduah as 4th Vice president and mallam dumbo sambo as 5th vice president yet the ship of the Nation is being run aground
