Who tell una say Oga Jonathan get yor time?

Did you all notice the same facial expression displayed by all the girls in the video? How can all fifteen girls have the same facial expression, is it really realistic? All the girls appear chubby and neat, how come? They also stood in front of a wall, are there walls in Sambisa forest? Anyway, time will tell if this Chibok saga is true or not.

You dey mind dem

Without lies how will they survive

Why are we repaying the loan which will be serviced in Yuan, in dollars?

How I wish we had 10 people like Fayose in this country

Who cares

APC is definitely behind Saraki's trial. For the sake of peace they should just forgive and forget. To err is human

It's a witch hunt

I don't get it too

Why do I keeping getting fuel at black market price from filling stations?

Your hero has just sold your faith to flat nosed Chinese folks and you lot are rejoicing Don't worry, you will become service men and women to Chinese immigrants who will pay you stipends in Yuan, while expecting you to work as hard as you would do for dollars SMH

We will soon see a flood of flat nosed Chinese faces ordering us around in the name of providing jobs.

Meanwhile, the useless Yuan will now replace the dollar here. Someone should ask the Chinese why they prefer their savings in dollars instead of Yuan

We in SS and SE will have the last laugh, continue

This is quite laudable from PDP, they are truly organized, if they keep it up the sky will be their limit

How is this FP worthy?

It is a strategy by the party to woe enough votes to secure the presidential sit. Nigerians are tribalists, if PDP zones the presidency to the North, Yorubas will vote for such a candidate and this will give APC the challenge it needs. Nice move by the party

Any where Amaechi go trouble go follow

This is very impressive from PDP, it shows they are ready for the election in 2019

Yorubas Pele, we all know you will support the North so giving them slots means PDP are pacifying you

Donald Duke single handedly transformed Cross River state. God bless

See wetin Buhari dey cause

Got home after work and I heard this boys grandma calling him to come and eat, after giving him the food to eat, of a sudden the boy just asked the grandma "Grandma, who was the first person to die on earth?" The grandma asked him why he wants to know, the boy said she should just answer. When the boy sees that d grandma is not interested in his question He now said "I want to be the last person to die in this earth". I quickly stopped what I was doing on hearing this. But the grandma didn't see anything strange with what the boy said she just told him to keep quiet and finish his food on time.
I had to imagine that even if this boy had heard this from a movie, being 5 yrs old, he might not understand. My conclusion was that something is actually wrong somewhere.

So? I don't see anything strange about what he said. If he was two, I could have raised an eyebrow, but five? Haba

Why posting all this online? Despite the fact that you knew she was unfaithful you still went ahead and married her? That was your first mistake. I am sure you already know that your wife is promiscuous, she is the kind of woman you don't leave alone for too long as per konji

Your daughter will be fine, you need to separate yourself from this woman for a while, hoping she will change her ways and learn to value other things besides sex. Good luck

Firstly this isn't a blame game, these issues were already there even before obasanjo's administration!!

My grouse with Jonathan is that he is from this region, why didn't he develop this region knowing fully well that it will have a direct impact on Nigeria development!!

I guess what you put up here is based on hearsay & what you read in the papers, I earlier stated that I have experienced life in this region!! My account is not based on hearsay or what I read in the paper, it's an actual real life experience

Agreed militants were sent for training home & abroad, some didn't take these trainings seriously, the news is filled with militants causing unrest in their various places of schooling BUT do you know a lot of them are currently jobless!!

What use is a training & after that no avenue to put that training to use. I see some of them everyday, so this isn't hearsay

One of the communities I recently visited is an oil producing one for the past 30yrs, there is no single government presence, the govt school is dilapidated, the road was built by shell(currently in a bad shape), no hospital, no bridges(the bridges were built by community, wooden bridges) electricity is produced by Shell

Guess what this community is under a LGA, that was once headed by orubebe, who later became minister of Niger delta!! Yet when he became minister he couldn't remember the LGA he once governed. Same story with the various oil producing communities with slight exceptions

You Said his tenure ensured peace but the question is at what cost? peace in the Niger delta & not the boko haram states, but lets focus on ND

Peace was existent & fuel too because he made compromises & did "eyes right" at the detriment of us & future generations.

Instead of caging the beast, he settled them & allowed them have their way, the monster is fully grown now, hence our present fuel predicament & more is to come because this present govt isn't ready to make such compromise.


Anybody who has spent time in the ND & by that I mean the oil producing communities & not Niger delta cities will know that Jonathan did absolutely nothing.

This isn't a blame game, I just want answers to my questions pleade

You say this isn't a blame Game, but it is clear you are blaming GEJ.

Mind you, I am from SS and I have lived in the oil producing areas.

It seems you expected GEJ to take over the role of the ND Governors or what? You said GEJ should have built hospitals, markets, schools, etc then what would be the contribution of the state Governors to their States, are you saying the Governors should be figure heads is it not their role to build hospitals and schools within their States?

GEJ built universities in ND and remember he was in office for only five years

You agree that he facilitated the training and provision of scholarships to some youths yet you blame him for their personal decisions to discard their education? What does GEJ have to do with this

You said many previously employed militants no longer have jobs? Well, GEJ is no longer the president of this country, what does he have to do with this now?

Read through my initial post objectively, you will understand that he did very well.

Even China have dollar reserves. Is it a mistake that the West and other important countries ignore the Yuan?

I never knew illiterate herdsmen were Internet savy

lurther:
We have not had light for over a month now and the Nation newspaper is mute about that.

Very true. They will also never write about the fuel scarcity or the economic hardship the masses are experiencing

Very insightful

Saraki truly deserves to be the Senate President

kenny987:
Nne it will shock you that if a forensic analysis of the ballot papers used in the 2015 presidential elections is carried out, u might find the impression of hooves in place of thumbs on some...

I won't be surprised

Gaming reserve indeed, when we have so many homeless people which the govt should be thinking of building low cost houses on any such available land, they prefer to make provisions for Cows instead.

Was it cows that stood under the sun with their PVCs for several hours to vote for this govt? SMH

tankara1010:
Fani Kayode is so happy lately...he now has son to carry on his legacy! I feel for him...took 4 women; three women gave him all girls, finally last woman one try, gave him a boy!

Which legacy? so are you supporting the fact that he is a supposed Christian and at the same time a polygamist or that he has done well for abandoning his other kids because of their gender or what, learn to think before posting stuff, you never know, his kids may be reading this.

Haha only a gullible person will see such well fed people and agree that those girls are with BH. Pure lies

I keep asking myself where things went wrong. Having experienced life in the Niger delta region, I'm forced to ask

1.What did the Ex president do for the Niger Delta region, knowing fully well that a massive development in this region will have a profound effect on Nigeria as a whole?

2.We have several communities that are off the national grid, enjoying light 24/7 courtesy of Gas turbines owned by various multinational firms eg Bonny, ogulaha kingdom in delta state, amorc in Rivers state(not sure of this spelling)
If shell, Agip, NLNG could power communities why couldn't you power the entire Niger delta & Nigeria? We have abundant Gas wells that are untapped!!

3. Why couldn't you do everything possible to kick start the Brass LNG project & Olokola LNG?

Bonny LNG construction ran for years providing employments close to hundreds of thousands, these two projects if they had started would have provided employment & now revenue from the sale of gas

4. What happened to the various proposed green refineries for Lagos, kogi & bayelsa?

If these were started long ago, employment would have been provided & by now we ought to have be self sufficient, no more fuel importation

5.Its a well known fact that local boys refine crude in the bush to get diesel, the news is filled with reports on the JTF closing these illegal refineries.

Why didn't you give licenses for these boys to operate, set a standard & have them monitored to see that those standards are met? Ben Bruce advocated to this too

With formal approval, wealthy individuals would have invested & employment would have been created too

5. why didn't you ensure that NDDC fulfilled its mandate? Rather you allowed NDDC become another embezzlement avenue!

6. Why did you create ministry of Niger Delta when NDDC was already there?

Inspite of these two bodies, the local communities are still plagued with lack of basic amenities. It was widely reported in the news that the JTF donated a borehole to your community, isn't it a shame that a sitting president's community still lack such basic infrastructure?

There are many more questions, I will stop here for now.

He built universities in Niger/Delta

He employed some of the repentant militants and gave them jobs e.g. to protect pipelines and oil establishments in the region

You may not be aware of this, but some SS youths were beneficiaries of scholarships funded by the government under GEJ

He contributed to the development of free skills and acquisition programmes through NDDC in the region

His tenure ensured peace within the region

His impact went far beyond SS into SE, SW and North, through programmes like Youwin, Grants for women in business, creating an enabling environment for foreign investments etc.

Cursed be anyone who accuses GEJ of failing us. He did better than many of his predecessors
