Just two Train's engines plying Lagos ibadan and then Abuja Kaduna

FarahAideed:
And some reports say the bandits might still be inside the Academy


In a sane country Buhari should be tendering his resignation today

dionma:
Until politicians have no say in the appointment and promotion of judges, this is what we will continue to experience. The process of subjecting the appointment of judges to confirmation of the senate or house of assembly brings politics into the process. As we know, Governors control state houses of assembly. The appointment of judges should strictly be between the National Judicial Council and the Nigerian Bar Association.

ZooOga:

Ruggedniggaone:
and you dont think northerners will vote against them massively if they make such statements

Okwyjesus:
It is now clear that the North has very hidden plan against Nigeria and the south.

They are talking of their population that is even causing problem to the nation.

LET THE SOUTH FRONT ONE CANDIDATE PLEASE OOOO. AT THIS POINT I DONT CARE AGAIN. TINUBU, AMAECHI, UMAHI anyone abeg

hokafor:
What that means is that the brain of an average northener is like that of a chimpanzee compare to that of an average southerner. A chimp and human beings can never be the same in intems of intellectual reasonings

bigtt76:
Not sure what all the hullabaloo is all about here. Are we saying that the kid in Zamfara who is not well schooled don't deserve to go further and learn more? Schools are not meant for only the brilliant but also the dumb.

Ok lets say the cut off is equal and at the end of the day, no Zamfara kid is eligible to attend a secondary school and that kid ends up being a bandit tomorrow ....do you think s/he won't come for that student who scored 150 and is living big?

This is the same thing that led to the north being the 'food basket' of the nation and we all depend on them for our tomatoes and onions. We abandoned farming for white collar jobs, leaving behind strategic occupations to the northerners we all perceived are dull. The result today is glaring - northerners head the army because they grew through the ranks. Southerners who tried to sneak in through short service can only get to certain ranks in the military through short service route.

Same thing goes with the civil service, the southerners prefer to trade or aim for higher paying jobs while the northerner settle for the low paying civil service and end up heading choice ministries. Politics nko? The northerners are more united because they're focused on the goal unlike the southerners who are disunited and in the process lose focus on the goal.

Allow the north joooor!

FarahAideed:
So what?!!!! ..to this wicked impoverishing govt travelling in Private is a sin ... So flying private is now a crime? It's clear this govt has no solid case against Kanu if not they wouldn't try this attempt to make him seem like a villain for flying private

BiafIntel:
How low Vanguard can go. FACT is that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was not arrested by nigerian authorities. He gave himself up to nigeria and nigeria failed into his trap. Biafra's International lawyers are preparing to arrive in nigeria anytime from now. Biafra is near, my people get ready for your freedom.

izubext007:
During the Biafra war, it was this same benuel people the betrayed the igbos.

So let them enjoy their franternity with them fullani.

Another ABOKI on the lopsided appointment spree
E no surprise me o!ahbi E shock una??

Don't think so.

Brimstone77:
I heard that a bank was robbed in anambra yesterday(being 15th April 2021),and after the robbery the armed robbers decided to hoist the Biafran flag at the entrance of the bank....what a poor job by nigeria DSS agents,if this is all the DSS as the intelligent agency of nigeria can come up with then nigeria is doomed....I can predict their next line of action......

By next week or so the police will claim to have arrested those that carried out the robbery,then when parading the said robbers they (the alleged arrested robbers) will now confess being members of ipob ESN,that they robbed the bank so that they can get money to buy arms and ammunitions to wage war against the nigeria State....this is a very poor script by DSS,

So DSS robbed the bank and hoisted the flag?



Even Nollywood can do better..... pathetic!!

Electrochemistry:
For progress and continued subsistence of Nigeria as a nation there ought to be a firm and constant will to give to every segment of the country what is due to them. This is the justice which should bring about equitable participation of all the regions that constitute the country in the affairs of the nation rather than giving priority and importance to a tribe over the other. In the absence of justice there will continue to be perennial agitation for seperation in an effort to redistribute and restore equity within the already heated polity.

Esseite:
Stupid statement.... you have over 4m internally displaced persons, over 10m out of school children, poverty capital of the world, double digit inflation, extreme unemployment amongst youths, and a debt of over N33tr. but nations with almost equal size of your IDPs and out of school children are your problem..

courage89:
What is the difference between rehabilitation and turnaround in this context? Revamping the refinery at that outrageous price is ridiculous. No words manipulation can justify the cost.

Is the rehabilitation project profitable? What is the payback time and Return on investment? How is the loan going to be paid back? What asset will this project be backed by? Lots of questions begging for answers

What is this loan backed by? How

Asgard13:
Do you know how much is 1.5 billion dollars?

Dangote is building one from scratch...

Apc is evil..

The most corrupt government in Nigeria history
Even the military never looted like this.

Walahi truly buhari is right abacha no steal ..
Apc is corrupt..

FVVCK Buharis integrity

urchcoded:
See how nobody arrested him not to talk of shooting him dead. It can never happen In Nigeria in the next 20 years. By the way Trump's supporters are fanatical and it's no surprise that people who are openly racist all support trump. Also I'll like to ask nairalanders pls what is new world order and why is it bad or good?

sorepco:
Marry her n move to yankee...get there and do a masters in medical field. Marriage is a gamble...u can either marry a good or bad spouse. Forget those who say u shud marry in lagos n make her move to eko.

Go yankee start ur life bro

Sammy07:
How can I unread this?

jabolo:
Ok, you ask (hopefully for education) before jumping to conclusion...

First of all, Sovereign immunity clauses are normal and widely used. Many countries incuding Nigeria have signed of hundreds if not thousands of them so I believe these lawmakers are either grandstanding, or unaware of how international finance works.

Let's go:

- Nigeria (represented by a parastatal) wanted to take a loan from a Chinese entity (or have a Chinese entity perform a job on 'credit') and negotiates a contract;
- As part of the negotiations, they agreed what to do when a dispute arises (this is called 'arbitration', the adopted rules are generally 'clear and fair');
- Assume the arbitration goes against Nigeria, let's say the panel awards an amount to be paid to the Chinese entity;
- If Nigeria does not pay, the Chinese entity would not want to go to Abuja High court (lol!) to enforce the award;
- It would want to head to another jurisdiction and the 'waiver of sovereign immunity' is the Nigerian Government effectively conceding that saying - "if after we have gone to arbitration and we are at fault, you can sue us in a court in another jurisdiction to recover your payment"
- In these jurisdictions, the only assets the court can assess for seizure in case of continuous non-payment by Nigeria are usually commercial assets and not diplomatic and military assets;
- For commercial assets, think NNPC/NPA London office building, Nigeria Airways airplanes (Ha!) etc;
- For excluded assets ,think Embassy buildings, airforce jets, Presidential jets , Arms and ammunition paid for etc.

Replace 'Nigeria' and 'Chinese Entity' above with any other country and any other entity in a contractual relationship and the same applies.

Investors deem these necessary as a direct function of the lack of confidence in our Judiciary. Any country with a weak and non-independent judiciary would find it difficult to attract foreign investments without these clauses. If we fix our judiciary and it establishes precedence in enforcing against Government entities in test cases with arbitration awards paid when due, these sort of clauses would begin to be phased out in new agreements.

So, the danger with this legislative 'over-reach' is that foreign investors would not invest, simple. The tap will be turned off.

Now I'm not necessarily defending it but I hope you now understand better.

DeLaRue:
The clause is fairly standard in cross border agreements where a government is a party.

All the clause is saying is, bro, as e dey sweet you to borrow money from me so, if you no pay back when time reach, and I come go court go get judgement against you for my money, no turn around to claim say as you be government so, nobody fit sue you because your country's constitution say so o.

It's a fair clause.

Even big contracts between local companies & State governments in Nigeria often contain this type of clause.

Enyimbamercedes:
Let's say it as it is

Magu is a thief

Miyachi:
You have to understand that a lot of informal banking relations happen between bankers and high profile customers. A customer could even request for a withdrawal to be brought to his home/office before even signing a check/ withdrawal slip.

AreaFada2:
. Oh really?

But GEJ was expected to get angels around him. Is it not from the same pool of Nigerians GEJ had to get from?

Buhari had 12 years to identify decent people. Jonathan had no time to.
Not saying you support Buhari or not support Jonathan.

The fact remains that we are not capable of managing ourselves because of corruption.

We need people like Canadians, Australians and New Zealanders with Commonwealth links, no colonial baggage and have a good record of anti corruption and integrity.

One4me:
A lot of Southerners cannot see that Buhari is actually preparing the North for a bigger role and those that can see, cant talk!
The man is implementing a road map that says:
if the South want to secede, we will make it very unattractive for them by ensuring they are no longer economically viable. Infact, when we are true with using their resources to develop the North, they will be begging us not to secede.

Just look back into the last five years and you wills ee this in EVERYTHING Buhari has been doing.

Why not build the Power plant at Ajaokuta, since it is easier and cheaper to transport Power to the North, than to transport gas?
What about all the Power Plants in the South that are short of gas, what happenes to them? E nor concern Buhari and his cabals.
He is building another Refinery in the North, Railway Engineering School, just think about any Project, it is going to the North.

It got so bad that he told foreign Aid agencies that if they want to work in Nigeria, they MUST work only in the North.
Southerners are under siege but some of them are still playing PDP Vs. APC, when the Northerners are just playing Northerners.

Eyes go clear very soon.

Lostz:
stop consoling yourself with useless analysis to make it seems Tinubu is still in control.

if Tinubu was in charge, the oshomole NWC will not be disbanded.
the cabals are running the party now. the caretaker committee has their roles spell out. they will fulfill whatever reason they are appointed and handover the party to the owners just like Markafi did for PDP.


no one is anyone's man


oshomole is now retired

Agboriotejoye:
Bros i'm relaxed. But there's no middle ground here. You can't castigate Obaseki and claim not to support Oshiomole. That's the hypocrisy i'm talking about in full glare again.
I'm sorry if I sound insulting but I am most peeved when I see enlightened youths support an oppressor against the oppressed. Why don't you think about it this way. If an Oshiomole/Tinubu exists in every state and at the national, that means that you, sir, have to be in their good books to ever stand a chance of having a shot at your state's governorship for example. In other words, you have to have a chance to meet him to ever be able to dream of becoming governor in your state. If he ever meets you and just doesn't like your face, it means your dream is dead before it even had a chance to live. In other words, your chance of becoming governor is not based on your capability or the superiority of your ideas. Your fight should be for a just and egalitarian society not a feudal one. But antagonizing Obaseki is antagonizing yourself too bro. Except you're in the inner circle already.
Don't give me that excuse of Obaseki is already grooming a godson to become a godfather either. There's no evidence to that. Let's deal with what we have on ground first before we start thinking of what comes next. Democracy gives a chance of a change every four years. So Obaseki too can succeed if he tries that anytime he wants to if we the people let him. If we let Oshiomole however, then the door becomes shut. We have to make sure we keep that door open for anyone. Just like in the US that has produced the Kennedys, Carters, Clintons, Obamas and now Trump.
