fydence:
the first meaningful post I've read on this matter... U summed it up nicely... I jst wonder isnt there a way to live our national lives without having to go begging the US. This arrogance and pokenosing of theirs irritates me.

Mynd44:

We import toothpick and office pins in this country sef.

Ngwakwe:


I asked you a simple question that requires Yes or No answer, would you supported GEJ if he had banned Saudi Airlines for lack of trust?

No reasons given, just by saying, we don't trust Saudis hence no direct landing to Nigeria.

cjrane:
[size=15pt]I completely believe this story is untrue and designed to leak Nigeria's source of arms procurement for it's military.

However, "If" Saudis refuse access over their airspace, they can always break the trip.

Fly from Pakistan to Dubai.
Then from Dubai, fly over the Indian ocean to avoid Saudi Arabia and then land at Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
Then from Addis Ababa to Abuja, Nigeria.

[/size]

Then quietly deny Saudi Arabian airlines landing rights in Nigeria.


.Don't say i told you so...

GANJAFARMER:
The day that Jonathan gives any arm manufacturing deal to probably the South Eastern Business men they will accuse him of planning secession.
Until the freeloaders in this country sincerely supports Fiscal federalism and states or regional autonomy we will remain with this old system of backwardness that favors the unproductive people and region of this country.

Mynd44:

So everyone that comes up in the name of Islam represents Muslims?

I guess Catholics priests who molested little boys represents Christians then

nairaman66:


Including cleaning agents and washing soaps! What a failed state.

Mynd44:

Nigerians are hilarious. When America did it they said it was because of the anti-gay law forgetting that most of America's allies in the middle east don't support homosexuality.

We cannot be trusted with arms. The way our military give up their outpost to terrorists is ridiculously worrying.

How does a barrack get captured in one day? And when we say they government is complacent they blame everyone else except themselves.

It is even more worrying that this comment came up

So this is about the elections all along. If there was no elections they wont even bother more. I wonder why our military is just having them on the run too.

Crappy country with crappy leaders and even we the followers are crappy

I understand your point

But

He must tow that path of involving our higher institutions if he wants a military equip enough to put the foot soldiers of our enemies to flight

idumuose:

In other words you are now equating the crimes of the catholic priests,though condemnable,
with the crimes of boko haram ba? If your sister,if you have one,was one of the many girls molested

by your fellow muslims in the north,if your brother was among those beheaded by boko haram while chanting Alahu Akbar,

i doubt if you will be typing all these.

trillville:
Why must Nigeria always look to import finished goods (military equipment). Government will now tell us it has no business with business.
if DICON is empowered to develop all these equipment, we will not be facing this embarrassment now.

We have so many mechanical engineers unemployed, some even with masters yet government says it has no business with business so it has to create employment in foreign countries by importing all sorts of finished goods at the expense of our people and the naira.

Saudi Arabia is simply doing the bidding of America and this action has absolutely no religious undertone in my opinion. Pakistan is a much more radical state than saudi and yet it has chosen to sell Nigeria weapons.

sebali:


I wasnt around wen he ruled bt my parents said he did well.........and couple with d fact he didnt steal......come feb 14 i wud vote 4 him(BUHARI)

LRNZH:
You see your life GEJ?

So the urgency to quell terrorism is because of elections and not because people are dying.

So if we allowed GEJ the single 6 years tenure he requested for, no arms will be procured with urgency until 2017.


Jesus. Must everything be about elections to GEJ?

GANJAFARMER:
Nigeria has a lot of problem and our current system is one major factor that need to be scrapped and corrected ,if you don't do this any noble idea would still be competing with that old ugly nature that has made every other thing not to work as it was suppose to work.
Let us go for regional autonomy first then we can begin from there.

WhiteTechnology:



Trash

LRNZH:


Leave matter. After 2015 elections, GMB will craft a comprehensive anti-terrorism plan. Not running from pillar to post for arms because of elections.

Mynd44:

You are going to blame the Saudi Government for not allowing a government they don't trust fly arms over their airspace?

Perhaps you will say Saudi Arabia is also supporting Boko Haram next.

Mynd44:
When top government officials were busy slandering Islam you people cheered them on. You all walked around smiling while your leaders make silly statements about religion and it was okay to all of you abi?

I guess next the FG will blame Sauidi Arabia

DickDastardly:

Senseless post.

jonezz:
Even Pakistan too We are finished as a country my brother,we import almost everything
Very soon we will be importing our wives lol

Mynd44:

Are the Saudis transporting arms in our skies? If they want to and we have reasons not to trust them, Yes. Deny them access
