Get it nigeria will work!nigeria will survive and we will live and rejoice in it,I like you,you will see it with your eye and you will partake in it

[size=16pt]And this is all the BS you have upstairs?

I thought you are some kind of policy wonk who would give us insights into this funny policy.

All you can do is sermonize with some emotional nonsense.

Do you think nations are great because of some silly "wishful thinking"?

Listen Pastor, RIGHTEOUS EXALTS A NATION - Proverbs 14:34. (Open your Bible and read it up)

You can't slaughter over 13,000 people just to elect an Imam and still talking working or no working.

You cannot plant "CASSAVA AND REAP COCOYAM" -Majek Fashek.

See the problem with Nigeria is we do things same way and we expect change,who presides over the federal character,Nigeria is broke as a result of mismanagement from the cluelesss one,which one will be better,reduces ministries to have more money or increase them and owe workers their salaries,don't forget we borrow to pay salaries so broda forget federal character commissions

[size=16pt]You can't do anything outside the rule of law.

You can change the law to accommodate your policies. But you can't chose the one to obey or disobey because your god has been elected.

It's one of those things that got Imam Buhari into trouble the last time.

By the way, it is actually more of a Constitution thing than the Federal Character Commission.

We are aware that Imam Buhari prefers Sharia to the constitution though.

Bro, these APC people can be very clownish and funny o

[size=16pt]A lot of them have 'outsourced' their brain really.
[/size]

bayulll01:
Use your brain,we aint sacking anybody we will merge all workers those ones outlive their usefulness will have to go

[size=16pt]And you have to merge workers to identify those who have 'outlive their usefulness', Mr Einstein?[/size]

Ejimike:
What is implication of the replacement
Niger Delta Ministry may be replaced with
Ministry for Regional Development.

[size=16pt]They want to accommodate the North East probably.

NDDC too might be similarly 'regrouped and renamed'[/size]

[size=16pt]Nigerians with their very funny reasoning.

If the constitution says you must appoint 37 ministers, and you appointed 37 minister and paying them.

And you said each of them are equal in status: salaries and all.

Supposing you will allocate different responsibilities to them in the consolidated ministry, what exactly have you achieved?

Each minister would still have his/her house differently, each minister would still have different cars and above all different aids and assistants.

How has this change anything?

If pruning down the workforce is the target, who will be sacked from two different ministries with a similar function?

What criteria would be used; old age, criminal record, forged certificate (remember Buhari himself doesn't have one), redundancy, nepotism, man-know-man, APC membership?

Exactly what is intended with this policy without changing that aspect of the constitution?

When Obasanjo did that and handed over to Yaradua for implementation, he swiftly changed it and cited the constitution. (Many people praising this 'progressive' stunts today may have condemned Obasanjo then)

Ironically, some of the supporters of this funny policy don't see anything wrong with Lagos State expansion of their 20 LGAs to 57 LCDAs (outside the constitution) for 'administrative convenience'.[/size]

[size=16pt]Are you going to sack workers now?

Have you heard of NLC strike before?[/size]

OrlandoOwoh:
If not for the Constitution, we will be having less than 20 ministers.

[size=16pt]Why the constitution?

Is the constitution not haram?

Is sharia not greater than the constitution?

Imam doesn't work with any constitution.[/size]

omenka:
Imagine the kind of country Jonathan is handing over. He's so bitter about his rejection at the polls and is doing everything imaginable to punish Nigerians for the wise choice they made.

Now, look at this man and tell me you really think deep down United Nation would tinker with an idea of making him a special envoy to whatever....

I told people all those talks about giving him an appointment by a world body were just gimmicks to placate the fella knowing fully well how intolerant of defeat some African leaders could be. The imagined without such innuendoes, the dude could simply turn around a say he rejects the outcome of the polls, throwing yet another country in the world into a state of complete chaos and humanitarian disaster.

Shame on Jonathan.
Shame on PDP.

[size=16pt]
You were still a child when Imam Buhari was Head of State for twenty month it seems.

Did you not hear from people older than you how he used the army to break people's shops and looted them in the name of price control?[/size]

Ilekeh:
I WAS EXPECTING IT.

Compare Lagos' development to other states.


The USA is the most indebted country in the world, yet she has something to show for it. It's not like Nigeria that is so indebted, yet it still looks like the old Japan.

[size=16pt]What is Lagos development compared to other states?[/size]

[size=16pt]Don't forget that this Pastor Prof also lied on Channels TV that Buhari's daughter was married to a Christian. [/size]

12345DKO:
IS NIGERIA OWING $60 BILLION OR NOT AND IS LAGOS STATE NOT PART OF NIGERIA? IF THE V.P ELECT HAD SPECIFICALLY MENTIONED FG, THEN WE WOULD HAVE HAD GOOD GROUND TO FAULT HIM BUT HE SAID NIGERIA.

[size=16pt]
Is Osinbajo inheriting Lagos State debt too?[/size]

PassingShot:
Deceitful PDP!

What did Osinbajo say that is wrong? Is Nigeria not indebted to the tune of $60 billions as a result of economic mismanagement?

Your defence that the states are equally owing does not exonerate FG from poor management of the economy since it's the same FG that approved all those borrowings (foreign).

And what did the FG do with its own share of the loan?

What did FG do with its huge share of the earnings from crude sale of above $100 per barrel?

How could the FG have been able to caution and shape reckless behaviour of state governments when itself is incapable of judicious management of resources?

PDP led federal government has been a CURSE to Nigeria.

Thank God we kicked them out.

[size=16pt]Is Osinbajo inheriting the states' debts too?[/size]

[size=16pt]Pastor's wife wearing see-through clothe to church to convey what message?

Change?[/size]

PAINGAIN:
I have lived in SA for years now and I have never had to queue to buy fuel. I drive in, tell dem the kind of fuel I want and the amount, I drive off. I don't know why nigeria is in such a sorry state.

[size=16pt]You didn't tell whether fuel is subsidized in SA.

Do their citizens feel 'entitled' to 'free' fuel?[/size]

sunnydayasaba:
If only the 8th assembly can pass d FOI bill...Nigerians deserves to know how much their state govt get as federal allocation monthly and how its spent, including contractors who execute govt contracts and how much is paid in phases.


Accountability is what we need to move dis country forward

[size=16pt]Which other FOI bill again?

How many FOI bills do you need?

Jesusloveyou:
get lost, just a simple question, tell us,who is subsidizing who? 35 yrs ago, d govt wil get d refine product,balance d trade with crude oil or pay for it, what business of marketer is that to import for us and sabotage our economy, me and buhari don't know what u mean by subsidizing us, is it d marketer(cabal)that is subsidizing us or we subsidizing them. nothing like subsidy,not to talk of removing it. What we know is subsidy scam.

[size=16pt]And you have to put Jesus name on this emptiness?

Does the consumption level of a nation remain static for 35 years? [/size]

hiroz:
buhari is funny comparing production capacity of the 80's to the present day.does he not know that the number of vehicles and generators consuming fuel has increased astronomically in ratios of a thousand fold and due to mismanagement from subsequent govt the refineries are way below their production capacity.this is a very short-sighted bullsh.i treview by president buhari....now to the case of ifeanyi uba..nigerians are insatiable you scream no fuel now a man decides to supply you fuel you begin to defame and insult him..what about the other marketers you dont criticise them but the one brings you fuel you attack...a.p.c e-fans now view everything with tainted glasses everything is prison!prison!may god help you.the house of reps are questioning the veto powers of the president but because it is gej, he is 'clueless' do you know the dangers that awaits buhari if the veto power can be challenged by the national assembly that means the office of the president becomes useless and insignificant...make una dey reason well abeg!!

[size=16pt]The nation eagerly waits for the coming Imam.

That 'miracle worker' for whom over 13,000 people were slaughtered.

He alone 'built' all the refineries and pipelines.
[/size]

[size=16pt]What's the reason? Where's the opinion?[/size]

AreaFada2:
.

This fuel scarcity is artificial. People/marketers are not sure what GMB will do about fuel subsidy.

Fuel hoarding is going on. In terms of fuel availability, GEJ's time in office has been the best since 16 years.

The sudden scarcity is deliberate on the part of marketers.

[size=16pt]Many Nigerians are very forgetful.

They have completely forgotten what fuel supply situation used to be before the introduction of subsidy.[/size]

sammieguze:
Buhari is in soup.


The expectations of the masses is very high.

Debts are high

Resources are low.

Yet, everyone thinks buhari will solve all our problems.


I think if buhari can just solve power and fuel problems permanently, Nigerians will be grateful.

Very very grateful.



The guy must be regretting the fact that he won now.

He just inherited an empty purse.

[size=16pt]Many Nigerians said a similar thing to Jonathan in 2011.

They said if Jonathan could just ensure free and fair elections and 'tackle corruption' through making the then freedom of information bill into law that 'he would have written his name in gold'

He did both.

[/size]

kenonze:
Its an unofficial visit bro,
Mind u, onyibo life is different from Africans.
White man carries his personal belongings no matter how highly placed u are. But in africa espcially Naija, military men have been turn to errand boys.

[size=16pt]Do they hold 'unofficial' meeting in No 10 now?

Or what do you mean 'unofficial'?[/size]

natnoble:
does it matter? after all is not on official but private visit. find another way starting opposition.

[size=16pt]
Meanwhile, you enjoyed the unended mockery that the outgoing president was subjected to at every turn.

If it's true that you guys have elected the Imam as president of Nigeria for four years, you had better get used to him being treated like any other elected official.

He would be consistently mocked and be subject of ridicule everywhere. It's you who will have to learn how to live in a democratic environment and get off Buhari's dictatorship that fascinates you.

[/size]

[size=16pt]This is what they will use The Nation and other 'change' news outlets to do for 4 years.

Propaganda! Propaganda!! and more Propaganda!!!

One would assume that a newspaper whose party just violently got the mandate to lead the country will outline steps that the party will be taking to 'correct' the so-called failures, but no, they are only interested in talking out of points to deceive their herds.

The same Lagos-Ibadan expressway that Obasanjo/Yaradua concessioned to Bicourney which the company couldn't fix for years but now being massively reconstructed is being listed as a failure too by this restless newspaper?

No responsible person will take The Nation seriously about the issue of Lagos-Ibadan expressway in particular and other lame criticisms in general.

When did Onolememe say Lagos-Ibadan expressway will be completed in 18 months?

You don't have to discredit Onolememe before you re-award Lagos-Ibadan to CCECC or Hitech and turn it to what Fashola turned Mile 12-Ikorodu road to.

[/size]

sammyj:
GEJ has divided this country with sentiment more than any other government has done. My question for the people clamoring for this reforms are i. Will they have gone for this presentation if GEJ had won

ii. What happened to N.Delta elites and militant that has benefited from all the national of this so called failed Nigeria

iii. After we divide and go our separate ways what happened to the Nigerians that got married to different tribes ?

I rest my case if they have objective answers to this questions !!!

[size=16pt]But you didn't ask any questions when Northern State Governors went to the US for a similar thing did you?

https://whitehouse.gov/blog/2014/03/19/ambassador-rice-meets-governors-nigeria[/size]

[size=16pt]Imam Buhari couldn't find his WASC of 1961 but produced an SSCE of 2015 affixed with a passport photograph as a 72 year old "pupil".

Imam Buhari couldn't get hold of his graduating pictures but producing his graduating mates as octogenarian "pupils".

And taking a cue from their god's "excellent performance" without proper schooling and certification, one of the Imam Buhari's worshiper is already calling for the downgrade of education.

He was reported to have called for a "reduction in JAMB cut-off marks".
[/size]

TRUTHTOPOWER:
Saddist? is that your training wherever you were schooled? What kind of impulse just make someone to just lace his views with sadistic venom? I never said emergency declaration does not have legal issues however the president like obj did in plateau can invoke clear and present danger clause. bottom it is the process that can be questioned not whether he had a role to play ab initio. the implication of what the AGF did is that a judge in any state can now be appointed to carry out the functions of judges in another state without recourse to the NJC. he can seat, adjucate and impose sanctions of law as long as he has the backing of the AGF. or is it limited to the oath of office alone because the section says any of the functions. it means the AGF can be the National Assembly, The President and the NJC for the purpose of appointing a judge to carry out the constitutional duties of a chief justice of Nigeria or at state level mutantis mutandis.
Haaaaaaaaa!

[size=16pt]Meanwhile, Amaechi himself was declared the winner of an election he did not contest in. [/size]

manuroq:
Is it that the office of the chief judge is vacant?

[size=16pt]
Yes, it's been vacant for almost two years; the office of the Chief Judge of Rivers State that is.

And the state judiciary has not function for that same period; almost two years.

APC has changed everything.
[/size]

charlesucheh:
So it's true that Lawyers in Nigeria are no longer relevant! Choi! Jst imagine this mr Learned colleague trying to own his own chamber by pursuing a case that is not worth it. If he's looking for cases, he should go out there and fight the repression of the surbordinate class in the society, he should fight for the ordinary man who has no lawyer and he's been opressed arbitrarily. until then, oga lawyer!!! Your bearing as a Learned colleague is still missing. JONZING MAN.

[size=16pt]You certainly do not have an idea of who Ebunolu Adegboruwa is.

Google him.

He single handedly won a case against Fashola's Lekki Bridge Toll gate ripoff (now on appeal).

http://www.punchng.com/news/court-bans-tolls-collection-on-lekki-ikoyi-bridge/

He's been around and one of the boldest lawyers around fighting for the 'common' man.

He is merely sounding out the Imam to get ready for 'battle'. Starting from his title should be enough 'war cry'.[/size]

Smalles:
All this charge and bail lawyers looking for cheep publicity , what's his own with Buhari's name if Buhari likes let him change his name to Johanatan Mohammadu Buhari , dats left for him to decide cos we are not after his name but the what he has to offer to develope our beloved country Nigeria. If Buhari likes let him convert to a Christian it's his choice so long as he will do what is expected of him.

[size=16pt]They are talking of title not name.[/size]

[size=16pt]Barrister Adegboruwa, Buhari is just a scammer.

Imam Buhari has been scamming Nigerians for long.

The way he used that General thing one would think he was a four-star general.

No other two-star general (Major General) in Nigeria has been so elevated by the gullible public as this Imam.

Even very senior military officers who left the army as three star generals like Lt. Gen T.Y. Danjuma, Lt. Gen Alani Akinrinade, Lt. Gen Jerry Useni etc were not elevated by the media and the public to general overnight.

Meanwhile, all other Major Generals are being addressed as such. Even though he correctly refers to himself as Major General, Buhari was not on record anywhere to have corrected the apparent misinformation by his 'worshipers'.

Perhaps it is the guilt that made the Chief Imam give such instruction. He should have corrected them on the 'general' title similarly.[/size]

mandarin:
I honestly do not know if those that offered the award to her have in depth understanding of what it means to fight corruption in the developing world. The madam minister can talk about billions of Naira saved through some procedural changes in ways government do its business but those gains were easily eaten up by myriads of other mismanagement (allegedly) seen in the public sphere. The oil subsidy scams running into trillions of Naira under her watchful eyes as de-facto Prime Minister (named Coordinating Minister of the Economy), missing billions of dollars from the treasury of government due to non remittance of incomes by the Government owned corporation under her watch and that of her colleague oil Minister Madam and various grafts exposed in the outgoing regime.
If she had performed this way in the United States would Yale celebrate her this way? By this it is easy for us to accept that the first world countries encourage graft and mediocrity in Africa and are not in a hurry to see the continent develop. This is a country where 7 out of every 10 able and agile workforce do not have profitable employment and over 40% depend on relatives, a country where parents still provide feeding for 30 years old graduate degree holders and public domestic debts almost tripled in five years in spite of oil income that ran into several billion dollars without any infrastructural progress to show for it. If what Okonjo did is what American Universities teach(I know that's not true anyway) then Nigeria had better look for graduates from local institutions to fix its problems. I think Yale, a prestigious University, ran into a colossal error over this action. I simply delete this school from my likes without wait.

[size=16pt]Direct your grievance at Yale University management.

Tell them they are either fools or they made a mistake.

They will give you an audience; they might withdraw the award or confirm it and educate you on their reasons.

Best of luck.[/size]
