Turning and turning in the widening gyre, the bigot cannot trust the thief.

Things fall apart; the center cannot hold.


The fight for the control of the APC party machinery (Operation protect your interest) has just begun. One point for the bigot, next turn is the thief's.

omonnakoda: Yes oo plus we will have your address and phone number. If you "forget" to pay tax we will text you to remind you and if you still don't pay we will visit you to collect.We are not smiling

Then you have a lot of work to do. I live at No 13, Adeola Hopewell Street, Victoria Island. My Phone no is 0802397388. Now find me! Olodo!

Bliss4Lyfe: Exactly, Stick to your Passport and Drivers License. Those are Federally approved documentation and if the Federal gov finds a need for ID cards, it should be a National ID Card.

Nigeria is not safe and you don't want ur personal information falling into the wrong hands or used by OPC for targeted killings of people of other origin, since Lagosians are diverse in origin. This should definitely be struck off or voluntary not compulsory.

Hmmn,

One begin to wonder the kind of security (logical and physical) and privacy arrangement put in place to protect personal data. The potential for misuse is very huge and quite worrisome. Many will not seek clarification on these, they keep just chanting 'eko ni baje o' like some sheep led to slaughter. They remind me of the sheep in the George Orwell's Animal Farm. Hear their maxim: "Fashola is always right, we will work harder!"

How many ID cards do one need to own to live in Nigeria?

There is the Passport, the drivers' license, National ID Card, Company ID cards, and now this?

Seriously, I think this duplications of ID card is pure waste of time and resources.

Personally, I think the (International) Passport and Driver's License should suffice in nearly all the cases. This Lagos State ID Card is either a pure waste of tax-payers money or designed for far more ulterior motive (666 on mind, Illuminati things lol). The National Population Census suffices for enumeration sake.

I will stick to my International Passport as I see no reason for another round of time wasting session in the name of ID cards. I know this will soon be challenged in the court.

By the way that Fashola's head make for interesting caricature. Reminds me of hammer head (of horror.)

Whatever the motive of the Op may be, Peter Obi has done a lot improving of Anambra State. But I sincerely believe a lot more needed to be done, not just in the capital city Awka, but in several other parts of the state.

GenBuhari:

Haven't read it yet. But this reaction says it all for me.

It must be a damning verdict on the fanatical murderous general!

As always, lion's liver is a vain wish for dogs.

Ameachi and his co-travelers in mischief can keep dreaming!!

Afam4eva: Exactly. I actually think a change of name and aspiration for Massob is the way to go cos their agitations in recent times has not been in tandem with the reason the group was created. They should just become an Igbo group like Ohanaeze while another group(if needed) tends to the Biafra front.

I think the group should be disbanded from within; they have no focus, not passion and no creativity. Morphing to respectable Igbo group like Ohaneze would be a tall order, there are already several Igbo groups in that mold by the way.

I think Uwazuruike should leave MASSOB for those who understand the meaning.

MASSOB stands for Movement for Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra. Hobnobbing with agents of one Nigeria, and making comments in support of one Nigeria clearly goes against the simplest objective of the group as reflected in the name. He either stand for Nigeria and leave MASSOB or stand with MASSOB and forget Nigeria. He can't achieve Biafra by supporting one Nigeria; neither can he pursue those two dissimilar goals concurrently.

Either a MASSOB name change is paramount now, or Uwazuruike should quit as he lost it completely.

Michaeljude212: The president should allow this people to operate the way they want after all nigeria is a democratic country and for this rivers state commissioner of police he should be carefull because life on earth have no part2

For what?

Can't they simply form a new party? Is their umbilical cord tied to PDP that they should add 'New' to existing party? They are bunch of quacks if they can't even come up with a simply identity.

Alxmyr: [size=15pt]I think Gbawe is using one of it.[/size]

The first laptop! Funny sh!t!

Gbawe: Can you at least get an education before you rush to follow the indoctrination that makes you blame everything negative on the Yorubas. I suggest you stop accepting and regurgitating the lies that bitter and exploitative elements tell you instead of rushing here to make a fool of yourself. The Shehu Shagari government led the drive to expel Ghanaians from Nigeria. Go and find out why and stop making a fool of yourself. In any case, and till today, the SW remains perhaps the most tolerant and accommodating region of Nigeria. This is the truth hateful lies from your kind, often beneficiary of the tolerant nature of the Yorubas, cannot detract from.

Next you will find a way to tie the Yorubas to the holocaust, the Liberian civil war or to the genocide in Rwanda. Pathetic. People like you, plus those who indoctrinated you in hate, are mentally unhealthy and I mean that seriously.

You didn't see the trash, lies and hate spewed by your fellow yoruba men, the Op for starters. You will rather want to put an Igbo woman down. Shameless hypocrite!

Another load of trash in this comment is that SW is the most tolerant and accommodating region is Nigeria? What is accommodating about deporting other Nigerians, holding them in detention centers, and deporting them in the dead of the night to some bridge head? What is accommodating about targeting, harassing traders in markets not dominated by indigenes. In anycase, I like to know which other state undertake regular 'deportation' of citizens within national boundary? Accommodating and tolerant my foot!

Some folks just open their mouths to make wild claims only to turn around deride others for making similar claims,

Rad1cal: Did he just accuse you of hatred simply because you chastised the APC for valid reasons. .

That niggy hasn't changed his hypocritical ways after a long while

That niggy is the epitome of hypocrisy in this forum. He is the Resident Hypocrite - APC laptop #1.

He never sees anything good in the present government just as he never see anything wrong in any APC controlled state. The guy he called hater is even lucky, it could have been worse. 10 dollar says he has reserved his worst bile for another occasion.

@ eGuerrilla,

Nice picture. Looks like that Mbu guy is a tough-nut. Wouldn't be messing around with him.

We know that the main lies being sold to us was that Amaechi was prevented from entering government. Whereas the truth is that a portion of back road leading the government house was blocked. We also know that the blocked section leads directly to the unregistered rival PDP office, opened same day through the instrumentation of Ameachi. If the Google map is anything to go by, Ameachi could easily have avoided the so called 'embarrassment' if:

1. he had taken his normal route
2. taken any of the several alternative routes to the government house.

Without gainsaying, Ameachi took a detour (no pun intended) to look for trouble, it appears some folks are foolish enough to be bought by his crocodile's tears!

I think those are valid questions, only if Ameachi and his gang will proffer honest answers to it.

The fact nevertheless remains that that the opportunistic 'democrats' and compromised media (such as Punch) seized the occasion to sell the Amaechi's 'victim' story to gullible Nigerians. But discerning people know that Amechi was not prevent from entering government house, he was rather having another of his his macabre dance in full glare of paid cheerleaders.

Let's see how long these dances will last.

Lordave: I didn't say they should be sacked, someone else did. And I was trying to clarify if the guy was high on pepsi.

oops, my bad then. Sorry for the mix-up bros

texaco1: please kindly name one politician in nigeria who is clean.no politician elected or appointed into a goverment post is clean and I mean NONE OF THEM.

True. So any opportunity to expose any or put them behind bar should not be missed. That's why Waziri, and Ribadu before him should have done more than talk!

Lordave: he should sack the minister of Health, state education, petroleum? ??
SHM

Sack his performing allies? To make who happy? This is a joke, right?

The President has always been a man of balls; I bet his political opponents underestimated him.

Yes, there is political undertone in this move, despite the denial from the presidency. But then it's a brilliant move; a double edged sword. In one move he had again shown his opponents that he not only hold most of the cards, but he can play them with guile and sagacity. Now his opponents will be forced to make their next moves.

Secondly, there are many Nigerians who are not interested in the political maneuvering, these folks are interested primarily in dividend of governance. These folks will simply look at the list of ministers shown the door, access their performance, and conclude, naturally, that baring one or two, it was largely a good move. What has been the impact of some of these ministers on the polity? Why should they continue to occupy space in the cabinet and receive salaries despite the fact that their political benefactors have fallen out with the presidency - making their paltry contribution all the more obvious.

Now the next step is to fill up those spaces with more vibrant personalities, shutting the critics and setting a new agenda!

To those who think the presidency is playing his cards too early, I suggest you ask yourselves these questions:. How many cards are in the playing deck? How many does the President holds? Who holds the Aces, and who holds the Jokers? Finally, what's the point of holding the cards if you cannot play them, while your opponents play theirs?

DaLover: @bold, this one got me laughing, what's she trying to say about OBJs age..lol

Perhaps there is more to Mr. Obansanjo's age than meets the eyes. Who best know this than a crack chief detective such as Madam Waziri Farida? How I wish she grows some balls and spill the beans. Obasanjo is as dirty as they come. Only die hard fools will see it differently.

So true...

Rather than choose someone who will help him deliver dividends of governance to the citizens he chose a 'corrupt' Atiku. Me thinks he just couldn't bear seeing Atiku surpass him in stealing our commonwealth.

On a second thought, she'll make a worthy partner for the randy fani Kayode as soon as he divorces his wife.

they can both talk themselves mad with the wild claims and fantasies. Loonies!

Hehehehe, this is one crazy biacth that can give musiwa a run for his money.

Yorobad folks better come and take daughter away and put her on a leash somewhere before fashola deports her deported ar/se to contonuo.

Na by force talk ? Imao

Those chairmen of course know that they are better served building their party than gallivanting around the country, play hide and seek with APC (armored personnel carrier) with purposeless 'New PDP' (whatever that means).

He regretted that out of the 10.5million children that don’t attend school, nine million of them are from the north, stressing that it was high time northern governors and administrators lived up to their responsibility.

How many schools has Babangida Aliyu built in his state to complement FG's efforts and how many almajiri has he help off the street. Do some of these Governor simply collect their allocation and do fvckall with it, only to turn around as ask the EFCC to get off their backs?

Simply put, the responsibility for getting those 9million children off the street to proper schools, lies with state governors such as Babangida Aliyu. The earlier this sinks in, the better for us all.

I know that Sahara Reporter is synonymous with lies and mischief. It appear however that Bayo Oluwasanmi is a voice of truth, in that encampment of liars. His analysis is spot on, Yorubas should indeed 'ronu' and decide whether the 'tall one' is their new messiah. I truly hope they are not destined to forever live in the shadow and awe of their fulani masters.
