[quote author=mu2sa2 post=41397981[b]]Hausa is the most-widely spoken indeginous language not only in Nigeria but in west Africa.[/b] So pmb is getting across to a wide audience by granting the interview in Hausa.What's even your grouse with the interview since it's translated? And mark you, BBC Hausa Service broadcasts to a wider audience then any local radio station. Maybe it's you that should bury your head in shame.[/quote]So we should all start learning Hausa right? I guess this is part of the Northern agenda, I see.

Eyah

So the war is Technically not over?

WOCKHARDI:
Why didn't OBJ grant his interviews in Yoruba and GEJ grant his in Ijaw languages?

God bless you for this question.

sammhi:
there is no shame in PMB speaking his language ....would an English man speak Hausa or Yoruba...please dis is not an issue at all...

Are you Hausa?

Keep visiting

billyG:
If d IGBO service of BBC are ready 2 interview him,he will speak in Igbo.

Would like that, must it be BBC? He can start by accepting the invite our own Bond FM has sent to him since May 29th

Ok lady, lets look at it this way.

>The largest population of the those deficient in spoken english or pidgin are resident among the Hausa clan

>The clan has been responsible for the high rate of insecurity for over a period of time now

>The region has been the mostly affected by the unending spate of violence leading to loss of life every now and then

>The Hausa speaking region of Nigeria has been the origin and base of the dreaded BH

>The president himself is Hausa, so confidence in expressing himself well will not be in doubt

>The war against BH success story has forced BH to limit the face-to-face confrontation to our boarder areas instead of inside our towns, communities and villages

>As read from the passage, BH has now resorted to employing the services of vulnerable women and underage children to continue recking their carnage in Mosques, churches, schools and market places.

>So don't you think it's time to apply psychological approach for a permanent victory over insecurity and thus ultimately help save cost on security budget and diverting it to others developmental projects in future

>If you agree with me and all the above cited points, don't you think Mr president being one of them and going by the fact that Hausa has a very large Radio broadcast followership ranging from BBC, VOA, Radio France Inter. China and German radio relays over the airwaves by virtue of Radio affordability and accessibility, Speaking and addressing them by giving them a sense of belonging would finally help in achieving the desired success?

PLS KINDLY GIVE ME A MENTION TO KNOW IF YOU GOT MY MESSAGE OK.

Buhari speaks: How we intend to fund Nigeria's N6 Trillion budget What does this topic have to do with B.H?

Niger-Delta militants, OPC, Biafra and co are also agitating for self-actualization, our president also needs to be fair and conduct interviews in the local dialect of these people too, or don't you think so?

Chirokusko:
Wailer, I'm sure, and everybody knows, including your dud mentor, Buhari can explain and verify all issues at any given occasions. WAWA JAKI DABBA

noblegrex:
its not. You haven't told me WHY. But I'm sure your claim is about ENGLISH. He's an housa man. He has the right to be granted interviews in Housa.as he can express himself very well in his mothers' languge. Nothing shameful. We Nigerians or ignorant Nigerians should be ashamed of themselves for trying to imitate the likes of Europe,britain and the rest. English is not our language,and that's the more reason I so much like CHINESE(chinko)people they don't give a danm abou English and they're so develop than we do. No wonder its so difficult for Nigeria to develop because of imitation.

Unfortunately, Hausa is not my mother tongue, why should I be bothered about learning it? I hate the language. English is a unifying language, before you start blabbing about Chinese, they speak Mandarin, It is a unifying language(they all speak and understand it). Do we have one single unifying language down here, an equivalent to Mandarin? If not, then I suppose we have to make do with our option, which is English, not Hausa.

Very strange, why do they have to be naked? hmmm

Na so God do am

noblegrex:
what's shameful about that.nonsense

Granting interviews to BBC Hausa consistently is shameful

ray501:
d man is proud of his mother's tongue..

This is what he should not be doing as a president of a multi-lingual country. No other previous President has done this before, because they know it promotes division. / //

damyzino:
#tribalism ......pls we are all one nigerian ...dont talk like a racist

If we are one Nigeria why is he not granting interviews in my native dialect, we have interpreters that can translate it for him so this is not a problem. To be fair, he needs to grant interviews in all 250 languages we have in this country this is the only way he can prove that we are one and the same, nonsense

All lies

We had light only on christmas day(thank goodness) right now, no light, we use gen and buy fuel at 150 per litre to run it.

I went to my elder brother's house for a visit and I lost my peace due to what I saw there.
I didn't call him on phone before going, I knocked and their first son opened the gate for me, when I entered they were eating. Normally the woman was supposed to dish food if they needed more but to my greatest surprise she asked him to dish more, like an obedient servant he went to the kitchen to get more.

About 30 minutes later her younger sister arrived and the wife started sending him all manner of errands, she started with bring yam for Mercy( the name of the girl), he brought the yam and she sent him again to tie the yams together for the girl, I was pissed cos I couldn't believe my brother was doing that.

She later send him to their shop to bring some stuffs for the girl, I left immediately cos I couldn't bear it any longer. The girl is above 20

Is he under a spell or it's normal?

And as a man can you do this?

When I went to spend time with my elder brother and his family, I noticed the kids were very close to him, in fact much closer to him than to their mother. After a while, I discovered why, it is because he is involved with the kids, he helps out as much as he can and I was surprised to see him even change his baby's diapers. OP, It seems you are not too happy that your SIL is enjoying her marriage? If a man doesn't help at home, you will complain, if he does, you will say his wife is using him. I really hope your brother has your medicine.

No. payoneer doesnt operate like a bank. Go and read more on their site. I wonder where you saw this directive. Post a link of your source here.

Why are you arguing like this now? Take a look at this:

For those with Payoneer MasterCard, you should know that your Payoneer card is denominated in foreign currency and with the present policy; you will no longer be able to make ATM withdrawal transactions with your Payoneer while in Nigeria but you can opt to use it on those sites that accept foreign currencies.

Now, what will be the way forward for those that still want to transact online with ease under this new policy?

DasukiGate: N850m paid into Buhari PA’s Access Bank Account

A new twist to the ongoing investigation of the $2.1bn arms contract scandal may soon unfold as associates of the embattled former National Security Adviser, Col Sambo Dasuki have revealed President Mohammadu Buhari got a sum of N850 million through his Personal Assistant, Sabi’u Yusuf.

They asked; “How did his nephew who has never worked in his life accumulate over N850 million in his bank account (0045586381) in a new generation bank?”

Our investigation revealed that the account number 0045586381 is domiciled in Access Bank and is owned by Sabi’u Yusuf.

Dasuki’s associates had threatened to make public a proof that those denying to have benefitted from the money actually collected the amounts ticked against their names.

Seriously?!

yusufu16:

ikihealthplus:

BALLOSKI:
Rag, what do you say of the notherners that are against BUHARI and are in pdp? Is that also because they are northerners?



!

You mean like Dasuki? Only a f00l will trust them.

Too many foolish tribal rodents on nairaland. Where does the words north, oil and secession occur in her entire post? Abi are you still drunk from yesterday?

PDP failed as a ruling party it is pathetic it is failing as an opposition party. Is the pdp and failure conjoined twins inseparable by even the most advanced technologies?

We all know APC is a scam. If you do not know this then you must be one of the social media e-rats they've been feeding @ Aso rock. If this same lady experienced this situation under GEJ she would have typed something much different, so why the hypocrisy?

Hmmmm, RIP ma, hope Mr. Femi now understands why we can't stop wailing. Accept my sympathy

She's a Northerner, I am not surprised by her reaction. If they were the ones with oil they would have left Nigeria since

OgunNewsFact:
So the Food bill for the president is #1.7billion for 2016.

Okay!

But you must be a wicked soul if you complained in 2012 and you are mute now.

In 2012, the food bill was set at N1b. Many of us lamented, condemned and asked questions.

After all the wailing and condemnation, the president slashed the budget to N910million.

By 2014, Jonathan reduced feeding in Aso rock to about N500million.

Now that Buhari has set his own food at N1.7b, I have all right to ask, if Prada, Fendi and Judith Leiber are the brands of rice that will be supplied to Aso Rock?

Is Lana Marks, Channel and Louis Vuitton the suppliers of cows to our presidential Villa?

How can they have the gut to increase food bill by over 200 percent and expect us to clap for them.

Didn't they say the country is broke?

So they will also borrow to finance designer foods.

I am short of words for this administration.

Let me sit back and see how they and their social media agents will defend this nonsense!!!

Prince Aderinola Oluwaseun Temitope

Thank you for this. Some wicked souls did not allow GEJ to have peace until he reduced the food bill to N500 million, now the same hypocrites are silent on a food bill of N1.7 billion, you can see the clear injustice going on. I hate hypocrisy.

kingdompropty:
One of their campaign promises among many others they have denied is the rescue of the Chibok girls. Seven Months into the life of this administration their foot soldier Madam Oby Ezekwesili have gone on a very troubling sabbatical leaving the poor parents to their fate. I wonder how their soul will detest this woman politician.

Based on Mr. Buharis campaign promise he told Nigerians and especially the poor parents of these girls that he would rescue these girls in a month and as one of the chosen Boko Haram negotiator I believe he had an unfettered access to the evil gang and he would call them to order.


Alas Boko Haram is now divided and the girls are with the wrong faction, and like a pack of card the promises failed woefully and up until this time no CHIBOK girls and NO body is talking about it. There is GOD oooooo.


Two days ago APC spokesman Mr. Lai Mohammed arrogantly told Nigerians that Boko Haram is a close case, just to score a useless point, that they fulfilled their unrealistic promises of December 31st, and it was followed by Mr. Buhari, then Buratai, followed by their gullible internet nit witts, just when an attack was being carried out in Borno State on Christmas day, 11 people were killed and scores abducted not including the numbers that were injured.


Mr. Lair said they do not have the capacity to coordinate an attack again, but that of Borno was carried out without any military resistance and I ask what do the APC really want? My perception about them is that of an unserious minded party, the reasons are various and space will not permit me to mention them.


Until the Chibok girls are found I think APC should keep quiet and give Nigerians dividends of democracy.

In a few more days, it will be 8 mths of APC rule, I have not noticed any significant development. All I see is a party trying all means to uproot the opposition from S/S states
